• The Browns travel to New England to face the Patriots. The

Browns own a 12-9 advantage in the regular-season series, in-

cluding a 34-14 victory on Nov. 7, 2010, the last time the teams

squared off.

• WR Josh Gordon broke his own Browns record with 261 re-

ceiving yards on 10 receptions (26.1 avg.) with two touchdowns

vs. Jacksonville. He set the previous record the week before after

totaling 237 yards vs. Pittsburgh. Gordon is the only player in NFL

history to top 200 receiving yards in back-to-back games. He has

totaled 498 receiving yards in the last two games and 623 in the

last three. Both fi gures are NFL records, according to Elias Sports

Bureau.

• Gordon has a team-leading 1,249 receiving yards, the second-

most by a Brown in a season, and needs 41 yards to pass WR

Braylon Edwards (1,289 in 2007) for the team record. Gordon is

averaging 124.9 receiving yards per game, the most in the NFL.

His 1,249 receiving yards are second in the league, despite playing

in just 10 games. Gordon’s average of 19.5 yards per catch this

season leads the NFL, and his average of 18.0 per grab since his

rookie 2012 campaign is also fi rst.

• According to STATS LLC, DBs Joe Haden and Buster Skrine

are tied for the league lead with 17 passed defensed (Browns fi lm

has credited Skrine with 22 and Haden with 18). Haden leads the

team with four interceptions, all of which have come in the past

four games.

• The Browns rank fourth in the league in total defense (306.8

yards), after fi nishing 23rd last season. Cleveland is fi fth in the

league in passing defense (207.8 yards), after fi nishing 25th last

year. The Browns are fi fth in rush defense (98.9) this season after

allowing 118.7 yards per game a year ago, fi nishing 19th in the

NFL. The Browns are the only team in the league to rank in the top

fi ve in rush defense, pass defense and total defense. The Browns

are also the only team to have not allowed a 100-yard rusher or a

300-yard passer in a game this season.

• Offensive linemen Joe Thomas (108), Alex Mack (76), Mitch-

ell Schwartz (28) and John Greco (22) have started the past 22

games together for the Browns. The four have not missed an of-

fensive snap this season.

Coaching capsules:

Cleveland -- Rob Chudzinski: 4-8, fi rst season as head coach.

Chudzinski was named the 14th full-time head coach in Browns

history on Jan. 10, 2013. He came to the team after spending the

past two seasons (2011-12) as the offensive coordinator for the

Carolina Panthers. Overall, Chudzinski’s résumé includes 19 years

of experience, including nine seasons in the NFL. Chudzinski re-

joined the Browns organization, where he spent the 2004 season

as tight ends coach and 2007-08 as offensive coordinator. In 2007,

Chudzinski guided Cleveland’s offense to 402 points and 5,621

yards, the highest totals for the team since the club returned in

1999, and third-best in franchise history.

New England -- Bill Belichick: 214-112, 19th season as head

coach (14th season with New England).

Belichick, whose fi rst NFL head coaching job was with Cleveland

from 1991-95, owns 214 career wins, the fi fth-most in NFL his-

tory, and is the only head coach to win three Super Bowl cham-

pionships in a four-year span. Belichick, the eighth full-time head

coach in Browns history, posted a 36-44 (.450) record in Cleveland

and led the team to an 11-5 mark in 1994, reaching the AFC Di-

visional playoffs. From 2003-12, he guided the Patriots to more

wins (126) over a 10-year span than any other head coach in league

annals. The three-time Associated Press Coach of the Year (2003,

2007 and 2010) is the longest-tenured coach among active NFL

head coaches and is the only head coach in NFL history to win at

least 13 regular-season games in fi ve seasons.

BROWNS 34

PATRIOTS 14 Nov. 7, 2010

Cleveland Browns Stadium, Cleveland, OhioThe Browns used a powerful running game to control the clock and earn a 34-14 win over the New

England Patriots. After the Browns kicked a fi eld goal on their opening drive, the ensuing kickoff

was muffed and recovered by DB Ray Ventrone at the New England 19-yard line. Two plays later,

the Browns extended their lead to 10-0 after RB Peyton Hillis punched in a touchdown run from

2-yards. The Patriots cut into the lead midway through the second quarter after QB Tom Brady

found TE Aaron Hernandez for a 2-yard score. The Browns responded on their next possession by

driving 60 yards, ending it with a trick play where WR Chansi Stuckey took a handoff from WR

Joshua Cribbs 11-yards for a touchdown. The score stayed 17-7 at halftime after Cleveland was

able to force a crucial fumble deep in their own territory when DB Abram Elam stripped Patriots TE

Rob Gronkowski of the ball on the Browns 2-yard line. Cleveland made the only score of the third

quarter after QB Colt McCoy scurried 16 yards for a touchdown, the fi rst rushing score of his career,

to cap off a 10 play, 72-yard drive, extending Cleveland’s advantage 24-10. After Dawson tacked on

another fi eld goal, New England responded with another Brady-to-Hernandez connection, this time

from 1-yard, to make the score 27-14. The Browns were able to put the game out of reach with a

six-play 60 yard drive, all hand offs to Hillis which ended when he scampered into the end zone from

35 yards out for his second touchdown of the afternoon. Hillis fi nished with a career-high 184 yards.

TEAM NOTES

STADIUM RENOVATIONS ON TAP

On Nov. 13, the Browns announced that they have initiated and

developed a two-year FirstEnergy Stadium renovation project,

proposed for completion during the next two offseasons. On Nov.

25, Cleveland City Council approved fi nancing for the project, in-

cluding a $120 million investment up front from the Browns.

“We have consistently communicated that two of our primary ar-

eas of focus are winning as many games as possible and creating

the best fan experience in the NFL,” said Browns Owner Jimmy

Haslam. “We have engaged our fans, asked for their thoughts, and

responded to their ideas and concerns. This modernization plan is

a result of our desire to invest in creating the best environment for

them and our players.”

During the fi rst year of the renovation, the Browns will install two

new video boards nearly triple the size of the boards currently in

each end zone, moving them closer to the fans. Throughout the

stadium, the plan also calls for LED video boards, which would

feature stats, scores and information, and installation of an entirely

new audio system, delivering crisper, clearer audio everywhere in

the facility.

In 2014, the project will also increase the lower bowl’s seating

capacity while improving sightlines. Many Browns fans would

be closer to the fi eld and observe dramatically better views of the

game, fostering a more intimate environment while enhancing the

team’s home-fi eld advantage.

Easing in-stadium access for fans is another priority in the plan’s

initial stage. Two new escalators will be installed in both the north

and south end zones to ensure the most fl uid, convenient move-

ment in and between stadium levels. At the end of the project,

there will be 12 escalators providing access to stadium levels.

“The Browns are proud and excited to reward their fans, their

team, and Northeast Ohio with this two-year modernization pro-

posal,” conveyed Browns CEO Joe Banner. “The Browns and the

City of Cleveland have created a very positive working relation-

ship on the design concepts of FirstEnergy Stadium, and we will

continue to work together to establish a productive agreement.”

In 2015, the Browns are hoping to improve general-admission

concession areas, boasting revamped and unique locally based of-

ferings. Additionally, the second phase will modernize premium

areas, including upgrading club seats and suites, while adding

more top-level entertainment areas, and creating new hospitality

and fan-engagement opportunities.

Also during the project’s second phase, new dramatic graphics

honoring the Browns’ illustrious history and current players will

be fashioned throughout the stadium and its concourses to improve

the facility’s aesthetics. Plus, there will be a continued emphasis

on offering the most up-to-date technology, with a heightened fo-

cus on providing reliable connectivity on all fan devices, and cre-

ative ways to use those devices in the stadium.

The Browns completed the process of reviewing the proposal with

Mayor Jackson, City Council, the Design Review Advisory Com-

mittee and the City Planning Commission in November.

After analyzing fan feedback, the Browns enhanced multiple el-

ements of the gameday experience at FirstEnergy Stadium prior

to the 2013 season, focusing on stadium ingress, in-stadium cell-

phone service, in-stadium team stores, and guest expectations,

as well as incorporating new features and traditions before and

throughout home contests.

The Browns also completed a $5 million, four-month renovation

project to vastly improve the team’s Berea training facility and

administrative complex this past offseason. Revamping 37,000

square feet of the 90,000-square-foot building, the team incor-

porated fi rst-class upgrades and a modernized layout to heighten

teamwork, both within and across departments, to best foster pro-

ductivity with an interactive, innovative mindset through its com-

mitment to acquiring and retaining top talent on and off the fi eld.


TEAM NOTES

TEAM ADDS TOP COORDINATORS

Head Coach Rob Chudzinski hired Norv Turner as offensive co-

ordinator and Ray Horton as defensive coordinator and retained

Chris Tabor as special teams coordinator.

Turner, who also works with the club’s quarterbacks, most recently

spent six seasons (2007-12) as the head coach of the San Diego

Chargers. Under Turner’s tutelage, quarterback Philip Rivers be-

came just the fi fth player in league history to pass for more than

4,500 yards in consecutive seasons (2010-11). In total, Turner

has spent 15 seasons as an NFL head coach and won 114 regular-

season games. He served as head coach of the Washington Red-

skins (1994-2000) and Oakland Raiders (2004-05), in addition to

stints as offensive coordinator in San Francisco (2006), Miami

(2002-03), San Diego (2001) and Dallas (1991-93). Turner’s of-

fensive system has produced the NFL’s leading rusher fi ve times

with three players in Emmitt Smith (1991-93), Ricky Williams

(2002) and LaDainian Tomlinson (2007).

Horton’s résumé includes 19 years of experience coaching in the

NFL, following a 10-year playing career as a defensive back. He

spent the past two seasons (2011-12) with the Arizona Cardinals

as defensive coordinator. In 2012, Horton guided a defensive unit

that ranked in the top-fi ve in the NFL in several categories, includ-

ing interceptions, takeaways, fi rst downs allowed, third-down effi -

ciency and passing yards. Prior to his time in Arizona, Horton spent

seven seasons (2004-10) as the defensive backs/assistant defensive

backs coach with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Horton was pivotal in the

development of Steelers safety Troy Polamalu, as he was selected

to six consecutive Pro Bowls (2005-10), named fi rst team All-Pro

three times (2005, 2008, 2010) and was voted as the 2010 AP De-

fensive Player of the Year. Horton began his coaching career with

Washington (1994-96) and has made stops as a defensive backs

coach with Cincinnati (1997-2001) and Detroit (2002-03).

Tabor, who joined the Browns in 2011, has 20 years of coaching

experience between the high school, collegiate and professional

levels. In 2012, he helped guide kicker Phil Dawson and kick re-

turner Joshua Cribbs to Pro Bowl selections. In addition, John-

son Bademosi led all rookies and fi nished tied for third in the NFL

with 18 special-teams tackles en route to being named the PFW/

PFWA All-Rookie special teams player. As a team Cleveland ranks

second in the NFL in punt return average (13.0) and tied for sec-

ond in the league in total return yards (3,432) since Tabor’s arrival

in 2011. Prior to joining the Browns, Tabor spent three seasons

(2008-10) as assistant special teams coach with Chicago. While

with the Bears, Tabor helped shape some of the NFL’s top return

specialists in Danieal Manning, Johnny Knox and Devin Hester.

NEW BUSINESS LEADERSHIP

There aren’t just new faces on the sidelines for the Browns this

season, there are also plenty of new faces on the business side of

the organization. Owner Jimmy Haslam and CEO Joe Banner’s

fi rst hire on the business side was Alec Scheiner, brought in as

team President. Scheiner, who spent the previous eight years with

the Dallas Cowboys, oversees all business functions of the club

including revenue generation, stadium operations, fi nance, legal,

information technology, and fan engagement. Scheiner also helps

lead football analytics for the club and has various other involve-

ment with team operations.

The team also added Brent Stehlik as executive vice president/

chief revenue offi cer. Prior to joining the Browns, Stehlik, a na-

tive of Lakewood, Ohio, was senior vice president of business op-

erations for the San Diego Padres from 2010-12. In 2013, he was

named a recipient of the Sports Business Journal’s “Forty Under

40” Award.

The club also added Kevin Griffi n as vice president of fan experi-

ence and marketing. Griffi n joined the club after working with the

Seattle Seahawks and Seattle Sounders FC (MLS) since 2004.

In addition, Sashi Brown was named the club’s executive vice

president, general counsel. He comes to the club after spending

the previous eight seasons (2005-12) with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

FACILITY GETS A FACELIFT

The Cleveland Browns training and administrative complex is lo-

cated in Berea, Ohio, and during the 2013 offseason, the facility’s

second fl oor underwent a $5 million, 37,000 square-foot renova-

tion. The new space boosts an open fl oor plan and was designed

to create a vibrant, energetic and collaborative space for the club’s

football and business operations. The new space also houses a

state-of-the-art media studio for radio and television production.

BROWNS OVERSEAS

Browns players have participated in the NFL-USO All-Star Tour

in recent years, illustrating a team and personal commitment to

extend military appreciation. D’Qwell Jackson (March, 2013),

Alex Mack (2012) and Joe Thomas (2010) each participated in

week-long visits to U.S. troops at military bases throughout the

Middle East. In addition, former Brown Eric Metcalf (1989-94)

participated in the USO Alumni Tour in July 2013. The NFL and

USO have organized overseas morale-building visits for more than

45 years.

Following his trip overseas, Thomas supported a national USO

campaign to raise additional funds in support of our troops, lend-

ing his name to the nationwide effort. In addition, Thomas, who

was an NFL Finalist for the 2013 NFL Walter Payton Man of the

Year award, founded the “Thomas’ Troops” season-ticket pro-

gram, which hosts men and women who serve our country every

home game. These special guests from the USO of Northern Ohio

are provided tickets, apparel and food.

BROWNS HONOR MCCORMACK

The Browns are honoring the late Mike McCormack, who passed away Nov. 15 at the age of 83, by wearing a helmet decal with his initials for the remainder of the season. McCormack played offen-sive tackle for the Browns from 1954-62 and was enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1984.

McCormack helped the Browns to three NFL championship games, including capturing the title in 1954 and 1955. He helped pave the way for the Browns to lead the league in rushing yards in 1958 and 1959.

As a rookie, he played for the New York Yanks in 1951 and was traded to the Browns while serving a two-year stint (1952-53) in the U.S. Army. During his time with the Browns, McCormack blocked for Pro Football Hall of Famers Otto Graham, Jim Brown and Bobby Mitchell.

McCormack was selected to six Pro Bowls (one with the Yanks and fi ve with the Browns) and was an inaugural member of the Cleveland Browns Ring of Honor.

Following his playing career, he served as a coach and executive in the NFL. He was the head coach for the Philadelphia Eagles (1973-75), Baltimore Colts (1980-81) and Seattle Seahawks (1982) before serving as Seahawks president and general man-ager until 1988. McCormack also served as the Carolina Panthers’ fi rst president and was the fi rst inductee into the Panthers Hall of Honor.


DB Joe Haden is tasked with lining up against the opposing

team’s top wide receiver for nearly every play each week. He has

responded to the challenge by virtually shutting down the opposi-

tion each game. Haden has matched up against a Pro Bowl receiver

six times - who have combined for nine Pro Bowl appearances

- and has limited them to a combined total of 17 receptions, 147

yards and zero touchdowns. In total, the opposing team’s top re-

ceivers have combined for 48 receptions for 528 yards and three

touchdowns. Haden has limited them to an average of 4.0 recep-

tions, 44.0 yards and 0.25 touchdowns. Against the rest of the NFL

this season, those receivers are averaging 5.3 receptions, 78.8

yards and 0.46 touchdowns.

In addition to the Browns ‘ceREAL’ Food Drive, the Browns and Browns play-ers hosted the annual Browns Gameday Food Drive at FirstEn-ergy Stadium prior to Cleveland’s 24-18 victory against the Balti-more Ravens (Nov. 3). The two initiatives helped provide nearly 37,000 meals through the Cleveland Foodbank. Browns players also joined the team’s efforts to purchase turkeys for families in need for Thanksgiving. This year, the club has purchased more than 1,000 turkeys for Cleveland families. Additional player initia-tives also occurred during Thanksgiving week.

LAST WEEK


HEAD COACH ROB CHUDZINSKI

Rob Chudzinski was named the 14th full-time

head coach in Browns history on Jan. 10, 2013.

Chudzinski comes to the team after spending the

past two seasons (2011-12) as the offensive coor-

dinator for the Carolina Panthers. Overall, Chudz-

inski’s résumé includes 19 years of experience,

including nine seasons in the NFL. Chudzinski

re-joins the Browns organization, where he spent

the 2004 season as tight ends coach and 2007-08

as offensive coordinator.

With the Panthers, the team went from two wins in the year before Chudz-

inski’s arrival to winning six in 2011 and seven in 2012, including vic-

tories in the fi nal four games of 2012. In 2011, the team set club records

for total yards (6,237) and fi rst downs (345), one year after experiencing

franchise lows in both categories. Carolina also scored 48 touchdowns af-

ter recording 17 the year prior to Chudzinski’s arrival. The Panthers also

moved from last in total yardage to seventh, marking the biggest improve-

ment in the league since the St. Louis Rams went from 27th in 1998 to

fi rst in 1999. In 2011, Chudzinski tutored Cam Newton, who became the

fi rst rookie in NFL history to throw for 4,000 yards, while setting an NFL

record for rushing touchdowns by a quarterback with 14 en route to be-

ing named the 2011 Associated Press Offensive Rookie of the Year. The

Panthers also became the fi rst team in league history with three 700-yard

rushers in DeAngelo Williams (836), Jonathan Stewart (761) and Newton

(706). Wide receiver Steve Smith eclipsed 1,000 yards receiving both sea-

sons under Chudzinski.

Chudzinski had two stints with the San Diego Chargers, where he served

as the assistant head coach/tight ends coach from 2009-10 and tight ends

coach from 2005-06. As assistant head coach under current Browns offen-

sive coordinator Norv Turner, Chudzinski was intricately involved in team

operations and many gameday elements, in addition to his coaching duties.

Over this two-year period, San Diego posted a composite regular season

record of 22-10, including one AFC West title. During Chudzinski’s initial

stint with the Chargers, he worked under former Browns Head Coach Mar-

ty Schottenheimer. As tight ends coach, Chudzinski tutored Antonio Gates,

who was voted to the Pro Bowl in each of Chudzinski’s four seasons with

the team. Gates recorded 1,157 receiving yards in 2009 and 1,101 in 2005,

marking the only times he has eclipsed the 1,000-yard plateau in his career.

In four seasons working with Chudzinski, Gates averaged 72.3 receptions,

991.0 yards and 9.3 touchdowns per season, compared to an average of

58.8 receptions, 726.1 yards and 7.7 touchdowns in six seasons without

Chudzinski.

In 2007, Chudzinski guided the Browns’ offense as they scored 402 points

and amassed 5,621 yards of total offense, as both fi gures ranked as third-

best in franchise history. In 2007, the Browns ranked eighth in the NFL

in total offense after fi nishing 31st in 2006. In addition, they racked up

42 offensive touchdowns in 2007 and tied for seventh in the league in

this category, after fi nishing 30th with 22 the year before. Wide receiver

Braylon Edwards set franchise records with 1,289 receiving yards and 16

touchdowns, tight end Kellen Winslow set a career-high with 1,109 receiv-

ing yards and running back Jamal Lewis fi nished fi fth in the NFL with

1,304 rushing yards. The Browns won 10 games that year, which are the

most victories by the team since 1994 (11).

Chudzinski began his pro coaching career in 2004 as the Browns’ tight

ends coach, where he worked with fi rst-round draft choice, Kellen Win-

slow. During that season, Chudzinski was elevated to offensive coordinator

for the fi nal fi ve games following Butch Davis’ resignation as head coach.

From 1994-2003, Chudzinski coached at his alma mater, the University of

Miami (Fla.). He spent two seasons (1994-95) as a graduate assistant, fi ve

(1996-2000) as tight ends coach and three (2001-03) as offensive coordina-

tor. During his three seasons as offensive coordinator, the Hurricanes com-

piled a record of 35-3 and played in a BCS Bowl game each year, including

two National Championship appearances. He helped shape future NFL Pro

Bowlers Bubba Franks, Frank Gore, Andre Johnson, Willis McGahee, Bry-

ant McKinnie, Clinton Portis, Jeremy Shockey and Kellen Winslow.

In 2001, the ‘Canes went 12-0 and defeated Nebraska to win the nation-

al championship. In 2002, Miami’s offense set school records for points

(527), total yards (6,074) and rushing touchdowns (33), one year after es-

tablishing school records in those same categories. In 2002, they averaged

40.5 points per game, 284.2 passing yards per game and 183.0 rushing

yards per contest. The Hurricanes went 12-1 in 2002, with their only de-

feat coming in overtime against Ohio State in the National Championship

game. In 2003, Miami fi nished with an 11-2 record, including a 16-14 vic-

tory over Florida State in the Orange Bowl.

At Miami, Chudzinski tutored Kellen Winslow, who won the John Mackey

Award in 2003 as the nation’s top collegiate tight end, while he also helped

to develop two other All-America tight ends in Bubba Franks (1999) and

Jeremy Shockey (2001). All three players went on to be fi rst-round NFL

draft picks.

Chudzinski played tight end at Miami from 1986-90 and was a three-year

starter and a member of two national championship teams (1987 and 1989).

He graduated with a B.A. in business administration in 1990 and went on

to earn his MBA in 1996. He is just the second University of Miami prod-

uct to become an NFL head coach, joining Jim Dooley, who coached the

Chicago Bears from 1968-71.

Chudzinski attended St. John’s High School in Toledo, Ohio, where he

grew up an avid Browns fan. He and his wife, Sheila, have two sons,

Kaelan and Rian, and one daughter, Margaret.

DOLPHINS 23

BROWNS 10 Sept. 8, 2013

FirstEnergy Stadium; Cleveland, OhioThe Browns held a 7-6 halftime advantage against the Dolphins, but Miami responded with two second-half touchdowns and one fi eld goal to claim a 23-10 victory in the season opener at FirstEnergy Stadium. Defensively, Cleveland limited Miami to 20 rushing yards (23 attempts, 0.9 average) – tied for the second-fewest allowed in a game in franchise history – tallied four sacks and intercepted one pass that led to a fi rst-half touchdown. The Browns did not surrender a fi rst down on seven of the Dolphins’ 13 drives (53.8 percent), and allowed only one fi rst down on two additional series. Starting at right end in his Browns debut, DL Desmond Bryant tied a career highs with 2.0 sacks. The Browns offense registered more net yards (291-275) and fi rst downs (20-18) than the Dolphins, led by TE Jordan Cameron, who posted career highs for catches (9) and receiving yards (108) and scored his second career touchdown. Cameron became the only Browns tight end to amass 100 receiving yards in a Browns season opener and the fi rst Brown to accomplish the feat since 2005 (WR Frisman Jackson, 128, vs. Cin., 9/11). After a three-and-out on the Dolphins’ fi rst possession, Miami rookie K Caleb Sturgis con-verted a 45-yard and 49-yard fi eld goal to establish a 6-0 lead with 13:37 to play in the second quarter. With 4:23 to play in the fi rst half, Browns LB D’Qwell Jackson defl ected a Dolphins QB Ryan Tannehill pass that DB Tashaun Gipson intercepted at the Cleveland 15-yard line and returned 29 yards. It marked Gipson’s second career interception and his longest-career interception return. Browns QB Brandon Weeden responded with an 11-play, 56-yard drive, completing four of six passes for 25 yards, including a 7-yard TD pass to Cameron that gave Cleveland a 7-6 halftime edge. Weeden attempted a career-high 53 passes with 26 completions for 289 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions in the game. In the second half, Tan-nehill completed a 34-yard touchdown pass to WR Brian Hartline to make it 13-7 with 6:46 to play in the third quarter. Tannehill completed 24 of 38 passes for 272 yards with one TD and one INT, while Hartline caught nine passes for a game-best 114 yards with one TD. Browns K Billy Cundiff answered with his fi rst fi eld goal (39 yards) of the season, but the Dolphins extended their lead to two scores, 20-10, on a 1-yard touchdown run by RB Daniel Thomas with 6:48 remaining. Sturgis capped the game’s scoring with a 36-yard fi eld goal with 1:34 to play in the game.

BROWNS 6 Sept. 15, 2013

M&T Bank Stadium; Baltimore, Md.The Browns established a 6-0 halftime lead, becoming only the second NFL team in the past 28 seasons to shut out the defending Super Bowl champion in the fi rst half of its home-opener, but surrendered two unanswered touchdowns in a 14-6 loss at Baltimore. Rookie LB Barkevi-ous Mingo made his NFL debut and recorded a sack on his fi rst career play. Baltimore drove 57 yards to open the game, but Ravens K Justin Tucker missed a 50-yard fi eld-goal attempt. QB Brandon Weeden responded with a fi ve-play, 57-yard drive, resulting in K Billy Cundiff’s 21-yard fi eld goal that gave the Browns a 3-0 lead with 8:40 to play in the fi rst quarter. TE Jordan Cameron caught a career-long 53-yard pass from Weeden on the fi rst play of the series. Weeden completed 21 of 33 passes (63.6 percent) for 227 yards for an 83.8 passer rating. The two teams exchanged punts for the rest of the fi rst half until Tucker pushed his second fi eld-goal attempt wide right, ending a six-play, 39-yard Ravens drive. Taking possession with :31 to play in the half, Weeden completed three consecutive passes for 33 yards, placing Cundiff in range for a 51-yard fi eld goal to give the Browns a 6-0 lead with :02 left on the clock. Bal-timore drove 80 yards on 12 plays during its fi rst second-half possession, capitalizing on RB Bernard Pierce’s 5-yard touchdown run to set the score at 7-6 with 5:13 to go in the second quarter. LB Craig Robertson notched his fi rst career forced fumble (Ravens RB Ray Rice) in the third quarter, which LB D’Qwell Jackson recovered at the Baltimore 45; however, the Browns turned the ball over on downs. The Ravens registered the fi nal points of the game as Flacco found rookie WR Marlon Brown for a 5-yard TD reception to set the score at 14-6 with 8:57 to play in the fourth quarter. Weeden sustained a right-thumb injury on the last of-fensive play of the ensuing drive, and QB Jason Campbell was unable to level the game on the Browns’ fi nal drive, when the team earned one fi rst down after gaining possession on the Cleveland 1-yard line.

VIKINGS 27 Sept. 22, 2013

Mall of America Field; Minneapolis, Minn.QB Brian Hoyer placed a pass in the back-left corner of the end zone to TE Jordan Cameron with 0:51 left, providing Cleveland a 31-27 victory over the Vikings at Mall of America Field. It marked Browns Head Coach Rob Chudzinski’s fi rst career win as an NFL head coach. Hoyer registered career bests with 30 completions, 54 pass attempts (55.6 percent), 321 passing yards and three TDs in his Browns debut and second career start. Cameron tied a Browns single-game record with three touchdown receptions, including one from P Spencer Lanning (11 yards) on a second-quarter fake fi eld goal. Vikings RB Adrian Peterson scored on a 2-yard run to cap an 80-yard scoring drive on the game’s opening possession, but the Browns responded with a six-play, 68-yard series, capped by a 47-yard TD reception by WR Josh Gordon, his fi rst of the season, to tie the game. Gordon recorded career-highs and game-bests with 10 recep-tions for 146 yards. The Browns defense limited Peterson to 88 yards on 25 carries (3.5 avg.), with his longest rush gaining only nine yards in the fi rst quarter. Hoyer directed a 77-yard touchdown drive on his next opportunity, fi nding Cameron for his fi rst TD of the game on a 19-yard pass. Following a second Vikings touchdown, Browns rookie DB Josh Aubrey rushed for 34 yards on a fake punt to set up K Billy Cundiff’s 38-yard fi eld goal. Two plays later, LB Craig Robertson tipped a pass that DB T.J. Ward intercepted to start the ensuing Browns drive in Vikings territory (38-yard line). Cleveland capitalized as Lanning found Cameron for a touchdown on a fake fi eld goal, giving the Browns a 24-14 lead with 3:39 remaining in the half. The Vikings scored 13 unanswered points and held a 27-24 lead with 10:47 left in the contest. After the Browns defense forced a three-and-out with 3:21 to play, Hoyer orchestrated an 11-play 55-yard touchdown drive that spanned 2:30 to deliver a four-point lead, 31-27. Min-nesota reached Cleveland’s 34-yard line on its fi nal possession, but the Browns batted down a Hail Mary attempt in the end zone and DL Desmond Bryant sacked QB Christian Ponder on the game’s fi nal two plays, respectively, to secure the road win.

BENGALS 6 Sept. 29, 2013

FirstEnergy Stadium; Cleveland, OhioThe Browns produced two 90-yard touchdown drives (12 plays, 95 yards; 12 plays, 91 yards) and limited the Bengals to 266 offensive yards in a 17-6 win. QB Brian Hoyer won his second start as many games, making him the fi rst Browns QB to win his fi rst two starts with the club since Mark Rypien in 1994. TE Jordan Cameron posted a career-high 10 receptions for 91 yards with one TD, becoming the fi rst Browns tight end with at least fi ve touchdowns in a season since Kellen Winslow (2007). Defensively, the Browns contained the Bengals to 203 net passing yards and 64 rushing yards, the fourth consecutive game the unit did not allow an individual running back to reach 100 rushing yards, and held Cincinnati to a 29-percent third-down conversion rate (4-14). The team fi nished +2 in turnover margin as the offense did not surrender the football, while DB Chris Owens forced and recovered a fumble and DB Buster Skrine notched his second career interception. Cleveland’s second possession comprised 12 plays and 95 yards as Hoyer was perfect on fi ve pass attempts for 56 yards, including a 2-yard TD pass to Cameron that gave the Browns a lead they would not relinquish. Cincinnati and Cleveland converted fi eld goals in the second and third quarters. In the fourth quarter, Cleve-land put together a 91-yard touchdown drive that spanned 6:37 to give the team the 17-6 advantage with 4:54 in the game. Hoyer, who was perfect on fi ve attempts for 56 yards, capital-ized on the series with a 1-yard TD to RB Chris Ogbonnaya, his fi rst career receiving TD. On the drive, RB Willis McGahee carried six times for 33 yards (5.5 avg.), including two 9-yard carries that placed the Browns on the 1-yard line. On Cincinnati’s fi nal three possessions, the defense permitted only two fi rst downs and intercepted Bengals QB Andy Dalton as LB D’Qwell Jackson defl ected a pass that was snared by Skrine.

BILLS 24 Oct. 3, 2013

FirstEnergy Stadium; Cleveland, OhioErasing a 10-0 fi rst-quarter defi cit, the Browns scored one rushing, passing, special-teams (punt return) and defensive (interception return) touchdown to earn a 37-24 victory against the Buffalo Bills in Thursday night action. QB Brandon Weeden, who replaced starting QB Brian Hoyer after a season-ending knee injury (torn ACL) sustained on the seventh offensive play, completed 13 of 24 passes (54.2 percent) for 197 yards with one touchdown and zero intercep-tions for a 95.3 rating. Defensively, Cleveland held Buffalo to 188 net passing yards, did not allow a 100-yard rusher for the fi fth consecutive game and registered its fi rst interception-return touchdown of the season (DB T.J. Ward, 44 yards). On special teams, WR-PR Travis Benjamin set a franchise record with 179 punt-return yards, bolstered by a 79-yard touchdown return. The Bills jumped to a 10-0 lead as RB Fred Jackson scored on a 1-yard run and K Dan Carpenter converted a 52-yard fi eld-goal attempt with 5:51 remaining in the fi rst quarter. The Browns grabbed a 17-10 lead with 17 unanswered points on three consecutive opportunities in the second quarter. Benjamin created a short fi eld after nearly scoring on a 57-yard punt return, setting up Billy Cundiff’s 30-yard fi eld goal. On the next possession, Weeden directed a 14-play 71-yard scoring drive, fi nalized with McGahee’s fi rst touchdown as a Brown. After Cleve-land forced a three-and-out on the Bills ensuing drive, Benjamin returned a punt 79 yards up the left sideline, breaking multiple tackles to give the Browns a seven-point lead, 17-10, with 2:20 remaining in the fi rst half. Buffalo posted touchdowns on its fi rst two second-half drives after Jackson and Bills RB C.J. Spiller rushed for 54-yard and 1-yard touchdowns, respec-tively, to earn a 24-17 edge with 6:32 to play in the third quarter. On the following possession, Weeden connected with WR Greg Little for a 47-yard completion, and Gordon for a 37-yard touchdown. Cundiff booted a pair of fi eld goals, his second (24 yards) and third (44) successful attempts of the night, to provide Cleveland a 30-24 advantage with 2:19 to play. Four plays later, Ward intercepted Bills QB Jeff Tuel and returned it for a 44-yard touchdown, sealing a 37-24 win with 1:44 left in the contest. The Browns defense only allowed Bills rookie QB E.J. Manuel (11-20-129-74.8) and Tuel (8-20-80-31.2), who replaced Manuel in the middle of the third quarter, to complete 19 of 40 passes (47.5 percent) for 209 yards with zero touchdowns and one interception for a 53.0 passer rating, combined.

BROWNS 13 Oct. 20, 2013

Lambeau Field; Green Bay, Wis.The Browns fell to an early 14-point as QB Aaron Rodgers directed TD drives (four plays, 40 yards and 11 plays, 56 yards) on his fi rst opportunities.

Cleveland re-sponded in the second quarter as Browns QB Brandon Weeden orchestrated a 12-play 45-yard drive to set up Billy Cundiff’s 46-yard fi eld goal, setting the score at 14-3 with 5:11 to go in the fi rst half. Green Bay answered on its next possession, with K Mason Crosby booting a 26-yard fi eld goal that provided the Packers a 17-3 halftime advantage.

BROWNS 17 Oct. 27, 2013

Arrowhead Stadium; Kansas City, Mo.The Browns scored on three consecutive possessions but could not surmount the Chiefs’ early 13-point lead in a 23-17 loss at Arrowhead Stadium. Kansas City forced three three-and-outs and entered Cleveland territory on each of the team’s fi rst three possessions of the game, establishing a 13-0 advantage with 10:26 to play in the second quarter. Chiefs K Ryan Suc-cop converted fi eld goals (42, 35) on Kansas City’s fi rst two possessions, followed by QB Alex Smith’s12-yard TD pass to FB Anthony Sherman. The Browns responded with three consecutive scoring drives to bring the game within three points, 20-17. Following a missed fi eld goal by Succop, QB Jason Campbell, who was making his debut start with the Browns, completed back-to-back passes to WR Greg Little (19 yards) and WR Josh Gordon (39-yard TD), the second occurring on a fl ea-fl icker involving RB Willis McGahee to make it 13-7 with 2:44 remaining in the fi rst half. The Chiefs answered with a touchdown on a 28-yard pass to WR Dexter McCluster, but Campbell directed a seven-play, 54-yard drive in the fi nal two minutes, setting up Billy Cundiff’s 44-yard fi eld goal that cut the Chiefs advantage to 20-10 at the half. On the opening possession of the second half, Campbell completed 4-of-5 passes for 69 yards with a touchdown and rushed for nine yards on two scrambles during a nine-play, 80-yard drive, capped by his 17-yard pass to RB Fozzy Whittaker, his fi rst career touchdown, that made it 20-17 with 9:58 to play in the third quarter. The defenses tightened to close the games the Browns and Chiefs gained a maximum of two fi rst downs and one fi rst down on each of their remaining drives, respectively. Cleveland’s defense allowed only 19 net yards on Kansas City’s fi rst drive of the second half, with the following fi ve drives netting 11 yards or fewer. After forcing a punt, the Browns received the ball at their 15-yard line with 3:55 to play but turned the ball over on downs on the 31-yard line with 1:54 left in the game. Cleveland held Kansas City to a 40-yard fi eld goal to set the score at 23-17 with 0:17 on the clock as the Browns could not achieve a come-from-behind victory.

RAVENS 18 Nov. 3, 2013

FirstEnergy Stadium; Cleveland, OhioThe Browns scored in all four quarters and did not trail at any point of a 24-18 victory over the Baltimore Ravens, snapping an 11-game skid dating back to 2007. On the Ravens’ fi rst six drives, the Browns defense forced four three-and-outs and one turnover, as DB Joe Haden registered his fi rst interception of the season. On Cleveland’s second possession, QB Jason Campbell completed back-to-back passes to WRs Greg Little and Josh Gordon for 32 and 27 yards, respectively. On fourth-and-goal at the 1-yard line, Campbell slid to his right under pressure and found WR Davone Bess for a touchdown, his fi rst of two on the day to post his fi rst career multiple-touchdown game. Baltimore answered with a fi eld goal to make it 7-3 with 3:38 remaining in the fi rst quarter. Early in the second quarter, battling through a fi rst-quarter rib injury, Campbell led a 68-yard touchdown drive, capped by a 20-yard touchdown recep-tion on third down by Bess. After three consecutive Ravens three-and-outs, Haden intercepted Ravens QB Joe Flacco on a deep pass at the Browns 23-yard line. Regaining possession with 1:01 to play in the fi rst half, Flacco completed a 46-yard pass to WR Torrey Smith and a 19-yard touchdown pass to WR Marlon Brown to set the score at 14-10 with 15 second left before the intermission. In the third quarter, LB Eric Martin recovered a muffed punt at the Browns 11-yard line, setting up Campbell for a 4-yard touchdown pass to TE Gary Barnidge that pro-vided the Browns a 21-10 advantage with 5:11 to go in the third quarter. Flacco in the fourth quarter connected with Brown for his second touchdown and the ensuing two-point conversion with 12:15 left to bring the Ravens within, 21-18. Protecting the three-point lead with 6:44 remaining, Campbell completed four of fi ve passes for 42 yards, including a fourth-and-one conversion, and rushed for a 12-yard fi rst down during a 15-play, 62-yard drive that set up a fi eld goal with 14 seconds remaining to secure a Browns victory.

STEELERS 27

BROWNS 11 Nov. 24, 2013

FirstEnergy Stadium; Cleveland, Ohio

The Browns committed four turnovers that resulted in 17 points during a 27-11 loss against

the Pittsburgh Steelers. Each team earned a fi eld goal on its opening possession as Steelers

K Shaun Suisham converted a 47-yarder and Browns K Billy Cundiff booted a 49-yarder,

leaving the teams even, 3-3. The game remained level until Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger

found WR Antonio Brown for a 41-yard touchdown that provided a 10-3 lead with 2:33 to go

in the fi rst half. Pittsburgh forced a fumble on the ensuing possession to set up Suisham for

a 32-yard fi eld goal, giving the Steelers a 13-3 advantage at halftime. Midway through the

third quarter, Browns QB Jason Campbell was sacked by Steelers CB William Gay, resulting

in a fumble that S Will Allen returned to the 4-yard line. Campbell, who completed 14 of 22

passes for 124 yards, sustained a head injury on the play and did not return. One play later,

Roethlisberger threw a 4-yard TD to WR Emmanuel Sanders to give Pittsburgh a 20-3 lead

with 7:43 to play in the third quarter. The Steelers made it 27-3 late in the fourth quarter as Gay

posted a 21-yard interception return touchdown. On the next possession, Browns QB Brandon

Weeden completed four of six attempts for 78 yards with a 1-yard TD pass to Josh Gordon.

Weeden, who passed for 209 yards in the game, connected with WR Davone Bess on the two-

point conversion, setting the score at 27-11. Gordon set a franchise record with 237 receiving

yards and tied a club mark with 14 receptions. Gordon, who became the fi rst Brown to record

back-to-back 100-yard games since Braylon Edwards in 2006, registered his team-record fi fth

100-yard effort of the season.

BROWNS 28 Dec. 1, 2013

FirstEnergy Stadium; Cleveland, Ohio

The Jaguars, aided by 13 points off of turnovers, scored the game-winning touchdown with 40 seconds to play for a 32-28 victory. After Cleveland forced a Jacksonville punt on the game’s opening possession, QB Brandon Weeden completed a 42-yard pass to WR Josh Gordon on his fi rst play under center, setting up RB Willis McGahee for a 1-yard touchdown run. Jackson-ville evened the contest on its next possession as QB Chad Henne found TE Clay Harbor for an 18-yard touchdown. Weeden responded with an 11-play, 92-yard touchdown drive spanning 5:17, capped by a 21-yard pass to Gordon, to give the Browns a 14-7 lead with 12:03 to play in the fi rst half. In the fi nal minutes of second quarter, Jacksonville forced two interceptions and one fumble that led to Jaguars RB Maurice Jones-Drew’s 8-yard TD pass to TE Marcedes Lewis and two K Josh Scobee fi eld goals (44 yards, 36 yards) that provided Jacksonville a 20-14 advantage at the intermission. To open the second half, Cleveland regained the lead on Weeden’s 4-yard touchdown pass to WR Greg Little, but in the fourth quarter, Jacksonville earned a safety following a high snap and kicked a fi eld goal on the ensuing possession to grab a 25-21 with 4:14 to play. One play later, Weeden connected near the sideline with Gordon, who then raced 95 yards to give the Browns a 28-25 edge. Jacksonville drove 80 yards on nine plays during the next possession, notching the game-winning TD on Henne’s 20-yard pass to WR Cecil Shorts. Gordon, who broke his own franchise record (237 vs. Pittsburgh) with 261 receiving yards with two touchdowns on 10 receptions (26.1 avg.), became the fi rst player in NFL history to amass 200 receiving yards in back-to-back games.
