The Browns added reinforcements this offseason, trading for defensive end Olivier Vernon and signing defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson as a free agent. With a few other defenders occupying the minds of opposing offensive lineman, Garrett should be ready for even more in 2019, which is part of why Pro Football Focus selected Garrett as one of their favorite players from the 2017 NFL Draft:Much of the hype currently surrounding the Browns focuses on the offense and what that side of the ball will be able to do with quarterback Baker Mayfield in his second season and the acquisition of wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr.But the defense will need to carry the water at times as well, and if Garrett can continue to build on his game, people just might be talking about the Browns defense as well.

(AP) — Philip Rivers tied the NFL record for consecutive completions and set marks for the most to start a game and the highest percentage in a game and Los Angeles rolled over Arizona.The 15-year veteran completed his first 25 passes and was 28 of 29 for 259 yards and three touchdowns in three quarters. It was also his 11th straight game with multiple TD passes.Rivers completed 25 straight passes in the first 2½ quarters, tying Ryan Tannehill’s mark from 2015.

Luck capped that drive with a 1-yard TD pass to Jack Doyle.SEAHAWKS 30, PANTHERS 27CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Russell Wilson threw for 339 yards and two touchdowns and Sebastian Janikowski kicked a 31-yard field goal as time expired to lift Seattle to a come-from-behind victory over Carolina.After Graham Gano missed a 52-yard field goal with 1:40 left in the game that would have given the Panthers the lead, Wilson moved around in the pocket until finding Tyler Lockett downfield for a 43-yard completion, setting up the winning kick.The victory puts Seattle (6-5) firmly in the hunt for a wild-card spot in the NFC, while the Panthers (6-5) are reeling after losing three straight and having their 10-game home winning streak snapped.Lockett finished with five catches for 107 yards and a touchdown, while David Moore had four receptions for 103 yards and a score.The Panthers spoiled a record-setting performance from Christian McCaffrey, who had a franchise-record 237 yards from scrimmage.

Sheldon Richardson had two sacks to lead the defense’s game-long stifling of Aaron Rodgers, and the Vikings (6-4-1) pushed the Packers (4-6-1) further back in the NFC wild-card race.Rodgers threw a touchdown pass to Davante Adams and Aaron Jones scored on a short run for a 14-7 lead early in the second quarter, but the Packers fell to 0-6 on the road and 1-5-1 against the Vikings in their last seven meetings.BROWNS 35, BENGALS 20CINCINNATI (AP) — Baker Mayfield threw a career-high four touchdown passes in another growing-up-fast performance, and Cleveland ended one of the NFL’s longest streaks of road futility with a victory over Cincinnati Ozzie Newsome Jersey , which lost quarterback Andy Dalton to a thumb injury.Cleveland (4-6-1) got its first road win since 2015, emphatically snapping a streak of 25 straight road losses that was one shy of the Lions‘ NFL record. The Browns also ended a run of seven straight losses to their intrastate rival.And just as a Browns safety predicted, it wasn’t even close.The Browns surged ahead 28-0 as former head coach Hue Jackson watched helplessly from the opposite sideline.

(AP) — Tom Brady threw two touchdown passes and became the NFL’s career leader in total yards passing in regular-season and playoff games, leading New England over New York.Brady also reached 3,000 yards passing for the 16th season, tying Peyton Manning for second in NFL history behind Brett Favre’s 18. The New England quarterback surpassed the mark early in the fourth quarter with a 17-yard completion to a diving Josh Gordon.Brady has 79,416 yards after going 20 of 31 for 283 yards in the victory that clinched the Patriots (8-3) their 18th straight season with a .500 record or better.

Baltimore expanded a three-point halftime lead to 27-17 with two run-heavy touchdown drives that consumed a total of nearly 16 minutes.With starter Joe Flacco out for a second straight game with an injured right hip Briean Boddy-Calhoun Jersey , Jackson cut down on his rushing attempts, threw more often and got the same result — a victory.

(AP) — Josh Allen scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 14-yard run in the fourth quarter, and the Bills beat the Jaguars in a game marred by a fight that led to the ejections of Jacksonville running back Leonard Fournette and Buffalo defensive end Shaq Lawson.Fournette scored twice to tie it at 14 in the second quarter.
