Browns fall to 0-8 with loss to Jets

“This is rough, but that is part of it”, coach Hue Jackson said. “Our players, our staff, coaches and team, we have to do it”. I take responsibility for that.

Cleveland Indians One Win Away from a World Series Championship – A real Halloween treat in itself.

Enunwa continues to spark the Jets, as his spectacular 24-yard touchdown catch saw him slip past four Browns defenders to get into the end zone. The 3-13 team from 2000 won back-to-back games against divisional opponents during Weeks 2 and 3. The Browns have dropped 11 straight overall and are 3-26 over their last 29 games.

Coleman has been targeted 13 times in two games, catching seven passes for 173 yards and those two scores. “When you win, you win”. We have to do that. “It was a businesslike approach in the second half”. That is a problem. “Early on in the season, we tried to get to that and we couldn’t get some of the things done depending on certain game plans”. They were certainly game against the visiting New York Jets but once again couldn’t hold a double-digit lead.

The Jets managed to put together their second win in a row on the road against a winless Cleveland Browns team. He did some second half damage with four catches for 68 yards. His rating after halftime was 34.8.

“I was open in the second half”, Pryor said Monday. “I thought he went through a stretch where he was playing good football. I just feel like I didn’t take advantage of it”.

“It is 0-8. You know?”

Cornerback Briean Boddy-Calhoun left the game Sunday in the first quarter and didn’t return but he doesn’t have a concussion, Jackson said. The Jets on Sunday gained 393 yards, their second-most this year.

“It was not their halftime adjustments, I can assure you that, and it was not our lack of halftime adjustments”, Jackson said.

McCown connected with tight end Gary Barnidge for a gain of 32 yards on the first play from scrimmage. “We have to get better”. “I think that will pay dividends for us in the second half”.

Ryan Fitzpatrick’s assessment of the Jets’ season was as blunt as could be. He forced four missed tackles and had 63 yards after contact, per PFF. We’re talking veterans like Joe Haden all the way down to guys who wouldn’t be on the field had they been playing for any other National Football League team like Brien Boddy-Calhoun. His 24-yard hookup with Quincy Enunwa brought the Jets within 20-14.

“It’s easy to go in there and watch film and get all these notes and do all this stuff, but you’ve got to actually put it on the field”, Coleman said. And yes, Josh McCown threw two interceptions.

On second-and-5 from Cleveland’s 30, McCown threw a deep pass into double coverage intended for Pryor, who slowed down after stutter stepping on his route. This team is undoubtedly at its worst in a long time, but there are still eight more games to play.

Three times, Cleveland’s been up at the half this season.

Bowles also excused Revis’ effort on a play late in the game where it appeared Revis could have made the tackle on Isaiah Crowell and did not.

McCown blamed himself for the loss, but Pryor said McCown got it wrong. McCown finished with 341 yards passing and a pair of touchdowns and a pair of interceptions.

“He just pulled it out of my hands”, Taylor said. Pryor hauled in 6 passes for 106 yards over the player formerly known as “Revis Island”. “We don’t complain when we lose and we ain’t going to bitch about it when we win”.
