I mean a trap game is usually something that comes before a bigger matchup the following week. So if we were playing say the eagles next week, looking ahead, ok.
We play vikes next so I don't see the trap. Not saying it isn't a tough game but I think we'll be focused

Trap games can also come after beating a team with a good record ( cowboys ).
With that being said, I don't see It as a trap game. Aslong as the team stays focused, we're capable of beating anyone.

The Brown's D will help keep it close for 2.5 quarters but will eventually wear down due to their O's inability to maintain drives. The Niners pull away and cruise 30-10.

This could be a Redskins in the Rain redux, but instead of 9-0, maybe 16-0

That's what I'm expecting to happen too. I see the 9ers has having too much talent on offense for the game to stay close for 4 quarters of football.

People call every single game other than the 1st and the two or three biggest perceived matchups a "trap" game

This morning I heard the Browns announcer say that they're going to start a rookie QB. His name is PJ Walker from Temple U. He's not a rookie but he's never started a game.

This isn't a trap game. The Browns have the best defense in the league, and the best pass defense by a huge margin. Now their offense in mostly garbage, but this isn't like playing the Giants or Patriots. If they figure out their offense a bit I could see them winning the AFC North.

Everything I've read if Deshaun Watson can't go is PJ Walker will start.

PJ Walker started half a dozen games for Carolina last year. He's been in the league for four or five years.

In the NFL, PJ Walker is probably best remembered for this throw last year:
