The NFL continues its preseason. Now it’s time to go to the Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, where Joe Flacco’s Cleveland Browns will face the defending champions, the Philadelphia Eagles.
This is the typical game that you have to watch if you are a rabid fan of these teams. Both will test their backup and rookie quarterbacks who are looking for a spot on the final roster. The Eagles are coming off a 34-27 win over the Bengals, while the Browns steamrolled the Panthers 30-10.
What is at stake for the Cleveland Browns?
In Cleveland, everything seems to indicate that Joe Flacco will be the quarterback of the offense. That’s why now it’s time to see who will be the backup quarterback. This is a 3-for-1 fight
Shedeur Sanders, Dillon Gabriel and Kenny Pickett will be looking to impress the Browns’ coaching staff. Sanders left a good taste in the mouth last week, but now he will face a defense that, even with the substitutes, is still fearsome and terrible
The Eagles have young Tanner McKee in their ranks, who will try to sneak through the cracks of the depth chart to stay as the second quarterback behind Jalen Hurts
And although most of the game will be between substitutes, there will be plenty to see, because those who take to the field know that it is perhaps the only opportunity they have to show what they are worth before the season begins

Clashes between Eagles and Browns
Although this is of little use for these instances, it must be said: the Browns know how to beat the Eagles. That’s what the numbers say
In the regular season, the Browns and Eagles have met 51 times, with Cleveland leading 32-18-1. The last meeting was in 2024, with Philadelphia winning 20-16.
This preseason duel will serve to iron out details, but also for some young players to play for their future in the NFL.
