Around the NFL: What Browns Fans Should Be Watching in Week 7

In this story:
There is a log jam in the AFC North. As many predicted early on in the season, the AFC North might be the most competitive division in all of football.
The AFC North is the only division in football that has each team above .500 and this week could shake up the standings.
Let's take a look outside the AFC North to see what games Browns fans should have their eyes on Sunday afternoon.
Cardinals at Seahawks 4:05 EST
This game has no impact on the Browns' playoff chances, but is a good one to keep your eyes on. This three-week stretch is monumental for the Cleveland Browns. They need to, at least, post a 2-1 record.
After Indianapolis on Sunday, the Browns head to the upper northwest for a clash with the Seahawks on Sunday, October 29th. Then the following week, they come home for a battle with Arizona.
Use this Week 7 matchup to see what the Browns have in front of them in the next two weeks.
Chargers at Chiefs 4:25pm EST
The Chargers have their backs against the wall. Today they sit at 2-3 and are facing off against Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. While I do not believe the Chiefs are what we are used to, they still are arguably the best team in football.
Sunday, they have the chance to nail the coffin shut on the Chargers.
This one is important for Browns fans because the sooner the Chargers are no longer in the picture, the better. There are a handful of teams that are going to be in competition for the Wild Card and the Chargers are certainly one of them.
If they fall to 2-4 today, they have an uphill battle to climb. Who knows if a loss on Sunday will lead to for Los Angeles.
Dolphins at Eagles 8:20pm EST
Chances are that you will be tuned into this matchup anyway, but here is why you should watch with a critical eye.
The Dolphins are the talk of the NFL, and rightfully so. Their offense is incredible and they are very fun to watch. However, it will be interesting to see how they stack up against one of the league's best.
The combined record of the teams the Dolphins have beaten is 5-24. When they played against the only team so far on their schedule with a winning record, they got hammered 48-20 by the Bills.
Sunday night is a good litmus test to see what exactly the Dolphins are.
Watch for the Browns to take care of business at 1:00pm EST and then lock in for these later Sunday matchups.
