What's an NFL week without a good (or lame) Remember the Titans joke. In any case, the Browns have benched Kevin Hogan in favor of DeShone Kizer, and it doesn't much matter. Whoever they start at quarterback tends to make for strong results for the opposing defense.
Here are the ugly numbers (for the Browns; they're beautiful for opposing fantasy defenses) through the first six weeks of the season. Only one defense has failed to record at least 7 fantasy points against Cleveland; three have had 9-plus. Fantasy points are based on scoring system of 1 point for sacks, 2 for turnovers and 6 for all touchdowns.
