Through five weeks, the 49ers have proven to be the class of an NFL, evidenced by their flawless 5-0 record. San Francisco will look to remain perfect when it faces a 2-2 Cleveland team that's already experienced a number of ups and downs this season.
In Week 5, the Niners dominated the Cowboys, earning a 42-10 win on "Sunday Night Football." Brock Purdy finished the game completing 17 of his 24 passes for 252 yards and four touchdowns, three of which went to TE George Kittle, who made a statement in more ways than one.

While the Browns are coming off a bye week, things in Cleveland couldn't be further from relaxed or calm. In addition to getting blown out the last time they were on the field, the Browns are mired in uncertainty due to the shoulder injury that held Deshaun Watson out of Week 4.
In the lead-up to Week 6, Watson reportedly worked indoors while the team practiced outside, and reports indicate that backup PJ Walker will start if Watson is again unable to go. With the NFL's best team coming to town, Cleveland could find itself at a disadvantage from the opening kick.
