Browns predictions at NFL midseason: Dorian Thompson-Robinson takes over as starting QB

New York Times  

The 2-7 Cleveland Browns have the weekend off before resuming their march toward an uncertain future. GO DEEPER AFC North Whiparound: Trade deadline reaction, potential award winners, Week 10 picks Dorian Thompson-Robinson will take over for Jameis Winston as Browns’ starting QB This is not wild. But because the Browns don’t have a quarterback of the future despite having more than $170 million in salary-cap commitments to Deshaun Watson, they probably have to let Thompson-Robinson play so the second-year quarterback can get important experience and the team can get a full evaluation. But with so much uncertainty, I’m not sure either Chubb or the team will let sentimentality and popularity dictate the future for a running back who turns 29 the week of the Browns’ home finale. GO DEEPER Browns were supposed to be in win-now mode, but GM Andrew Berry has a lot to fix Browns shake up front office and move on from either their GM or chief strategy officer Considering the failures of the Deshaun Watson trade, the offensive line carousel in 2024, the contract uncertainty across the offense and the number of draft misses, I can’t imagine team owners Jimmy and Dee Haslam viewing this massive failure as acceptable.
