Browns' Weeden working on ball security

Via AP on Fox  |  August 26, 2012
Browns rookie quarterback Brandon Weeden knows he needs to get a grip. Weeden has already fumbled three times during the exhibition season, losing the ball twice and costing Cleveland points with his turnovers. In Friday's 27-10 loss to Philadelphia, Weeden fumbled twice in the first quarter. The first one wasn't his fault as his protection broke down on a botched screen...

Cleveland Brown’s Pat Shurmur: A tale of two coaches

Via CJ Sports NASCAR Talk  |  August 27, 2012
Pat Shurmur walked into quite the situation when being hand-picked by team president Mike Holmgren to coach the Cleveland Browns prior to the 2011 season. Since their return to the NFL in 1999, the Browns have been through six head coaches in that 13 year time period with very little success. Every single move Shurmur made would be critiqued to an almost unnecessary degree by media...

Via Fantasy Football Champs  |  August 25, 2012

He rushed for 12 yards on eight carries vs. Philadelphia, and more importantly, fumbled for the second week in a row.Fantasy Spin:At this point we are not sure whether Hardesty or Brandon Jackson is the correct...

While We’re Waiting: Browns vs. Eagles Recaps Galore

Via Waiting For Next Year  |  August 25, 2012
Naturally, it was all a smokescreen. Right? “Of interest mainly to fans who endure paying full price for half value, the Browns’ exhibition home opener Friday against Philadelphia was one in which neither team wanted to show much. That was to avoid tipping off their wilier designs before the regular-season opener between the teams in 16 days. The Browns’ starters, if nothing...
