Cleveland Browns Defense

✦ Blitz AI

Cleveland's defense is rated 67.7, ranking 11th among NFL defenses. The rating jumped 12.9 points from the previous calculation, driven largely by an elite pass rush that sits in the 93rd percentile for sacks per game and efficiency allowed in the 76th percentile. However, the defense ranks just in the 40th percentile for takeaway rate, which limits upside, and its rating incorporates a blend with the 2025 season (61.3 rating) to account for the small five-game sample so far in 2026. The strong sack production and defensive efficiency suggest Cleveland is capable of week-to-week production gains, but turnover generation remains a drag on the overall floor.
