| OFFENSE HAS MORE PROBLEMS THAN JUST QUINN New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees has thrown nine touchdown passes over his first two games of this season. Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson has rushed for four scores in two weeks. The Cleveland Browns? They have just one offensive touchdown over their last eight games dating back to last season. Starting quarterback Brady Quinn is sure to catch a lot of grief for Cleveland's 0-2 start. He has thrown for just 366 yards over his first two games wit |

He leads the team with 19 tackles, including 10 in a win over his former team, the Cleveland Browns, on Sunday. ``He studies as much or more than anybody else on our team,'' McDaniels said. ``He does a great job of showing our younger players how to practice, how to prepare.'' Elvis Dumervil is certainly taking note. He's also starting to adap |

BEREA, Ohio (AP) -Eric Mangini has strict rules for his players. Break them and pay. Two games into Mangini's coaching tenure with the Cleveland Browns, his team doesn't seem able to do what he wants. The Browns' offense can't find the end zone with a GPS. Their defense can't tackle and had a second straight second-half collapse. Their starting quarterback, though wildly popular, has been indecisive, inaccurate and unable to complete passes longer than 10 yards. So bad for so long, the Browns are awful |

In return, Tressel said such fans were ``miserable'' and ``sad.'' But as the score mounted at Cleveland Browns Stadium, the pressure and tension seemed to diminish. The game against the Rockets couldn't have come at a much better time for the beleaguered 13th-ranked Buckeyes. After a narrow 31-27 win over Navy's triple-option in the opener and then the dis |

| (MySportsbook) - Fans of the Denver Broncos will certainly be cheering for their own team on Sunday, when the Cleveland Browns pay a visit to the Mile High City for Denver's home opener. That said, you can bet some members of the Broncos will be on a short leash with the home faithful. Broncos fans have seen their loyalties tested at almost every turn since the 2008 season careened to a halt with three straight losses that put the team at 8-8 and out of the playoff money. Many Denver supporters applauded the |

Then again, the Buckeyes have never left home to play a MAC team.

DENVER (AP) -The Denver Broncos aim to bottle up not only Cleveland Browns kick returner Joshua Cribbs on Sunday, but also the magic of their ``Immaculate Deflection'' in Cincinnati. Both may prove elusive. The Broncos (1-0) believe they can milk Brandon Stokley's 87-yard touchdown with 11 seconds left in their stunning 12-7 win over the Bengals into momentum when they face the Browns (0-1). ``We should have momentum coming out of that game,'' Broncos quarterback Kyle Orton said. ``We got a win opening |
