CLEVELAND — It feels good to be a Browns fan, as the team is now 3-1 following a 14-7 win over Minnesota . The offense struggled at times, but the defense shined again, holding the Vikings without a score after the opening drive.
Every Monday, we offer you a new segment called "3 Things About the Browns," a spinoff of Stephanie Haney's popular "3 Things to Know" podcast. Each week, Stephanie will sit down with "Voice of the Browns" and 3News sports anchor Jim Donovan to discuss the top topics surrounding the team, as well as preview what comes next.
Here's what they talked about after Week 4:
Turning point
Down 7-0 most of the first half, the game really seemed to flip in the Browns' favor following a Kareem Hunt touchdown and a subsequent two-point conversion. Steph asks Jimmy what exactly happened to give Cleveland that opportunity, and why Kevin Stefanski elected to go for two instead of just kick the extra point.
Defense, defense, defense
The Browns allowed a 75-yard touchdown drive on the opening series, but after that surrendered just 180 yards and no points. Jimmy talks about the continued improvement of the defensive unit, which he sees as "very, very special."

Baker's struggles
Baker Mayfield had a rough time connecting with his receivers on Sunday, completing only 15 of 33 passes. Should we be concerned, and how much does the Odell Beckham Jr. factor play into this? Steph and Jimmy discuss.
