Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers will face off against the Cleveland Browns in a tough matchup in Week 5.
The Los Angeles Chargers will face the Cleveland Browns in week 5 in what promises to be a great game between two teams who have playoff aspirations. Both teams are coming into this game with a record of 2-2, but would have hoped for a better start to their season.
The Browns are still without quarterback Deshaun Watson who is still serving his suspension, and even without him, they have looked like a great football team. On the other hand, the Chargers are dealing with significant injuries to their star players, and they will also hope to improve their record.
Justin Herbert has been once again phenomenal, and he will look to continue his good run of form. Jacoby Brissett, who is filling in for Deshaun Watson has also played well so far, and this game promises to be an exciting one with both teams being nearly evenly matched.
