The Cleveland Browns defeated the Arizona Cardinals 27-0 to inflict a first shutout on an opponent since they beat the Buffalo Bills 8-0 in the snow in Week 15 of the 2007 season. This week's victory broke a streak of 251 straight games without having a shutout victory, which had been the second-longest current streak in the NFL. The Washington Commanders last shut out an opponent in September 1991, their third shutout of the month, but they have not had one since then.

The Cardinals were held to just 58 total yards, their fewest in a game since they managed 49 yards in a 27-3 defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles at Connie Mack Stadium in 1955.
