Pierre Strong Leads Modest Backfield

RB Jerome Ford left Sunday's loss at Philadelphia early. That left the backfield to Pierre Strong and D'Onta Foreman. Strong trailed Foreman 10-8 in carries but beat his teammate in rushing yards: 43 to 31. Strong also ran 17 pass routes vs. Foreman's six but edge him by just one target (3-2). Strong took 2 receptions for 35 yards. Foreman caught both of his targets for 16 yards.

We'll see how long Ford's hamstring injury keeps him out, but the Browns expect to get Nick Chubb back in Week 7.

If Ford remains sidelined, Strong would fit much better than Foreman as a complement to Chubb.

Cleveland gets three straight home dates next, starting with a weak Cincinnati defense. After that come tougher matchups with the Ravens and Chargers.
