David Bell grabs 2 TDs in 4th quarter for late offensive spark in
Browns close out the regular season 11-6

Player of the Game:

David Bell

Bell found the end zone twice in the fourth quarter to put the Browns on the board. He caught a 31-yard touchdown reception, and then a 24-yard touchdown reception. He finished the game with four receptions for 68 yards and two touchdowns. It was also Bell's first game of the season with two receiving touchdowns.

What does it mean?

Heading into Week 18, the Browns had clinched a playoff berth and were locked into the fifth seed in the AFC. They believed they had earned an opportunity to rest players, and give a chance for their backups and younger players to get important game reps. So, even with the loss, it does not affect their postseason.

However, with it being a chance for the younger players and backups to show how they can contribute in a game situation, the Browns defense struggled to showcase their dominance, giving up 31 points. Offensively, even though he's been with the Browns for just one week, Driskel also struggled to connect with players in the passing game and create a flow offensively. The Browns also could not find a rhythm in the run game.

Sunday's performance isn't cause for concern, though. As the Browns prepare for their playoff matchup, their starters will be back on the field.

What's next?

The Browns will officially face the AFC South-winning Texans in the Wild Card round of the playoffs.
