Inside the locker room: Cleveland Browns upset and disappointed in loss to Raiders

The COVID-ravaged Browns lost a heartbreaking game to the Las Vegas Raiders 16-14 Monday evening.

Third-string quarterback Nick Mullens found Harrison Bryan for a go-ahead touchdown late in the fourth quarter, but Daniel Carlson made a 48-yard field goal as time expired.

Cleveland was without 18 players on its active roster due to positive coronavirus cases, forcing the NFL to push the game back from its original Saturday kickoff date.

Though the team was able to get some guys back during the time off, several key pieces — Baker Mayfield, Jarvis Landry, and Jadeveon Clowney among them — were still missing, and their absence was apparent at key points throughout the night.

Without a dominant team in the AFC, every team has injuries/ Covic-19 issues. How does Stefanski tell his boss Mr. Berry this talented roster is 7-7 at best.

BS SHOULD HAVE WON, MISSED FIELD GOAL BY THE KICKER. TIRED OF HEARING STUPID EXCUSES. NOBODY PUTTING ANYTHING ON THE LINE. PLAYER'S ARE ONLY ABOUT THE MONEY. PAID BIG MONEY TO CONTRIBUTE NOT TO VEGETATE ON THE SIDELINES.
