A video of the second-year quarterback partying in Texas during the Browns’ bye week surfaced and Manziel reportedly lied to coach Mike Pettine over when the incident took place. “It’s frustrating. The guys battled back from some deficits”.

You’ve gotta be at least part sadist if you’re a diehard fan of the NFL’s much beleaguered Cleveland Browns.
McCown injured his collarbone in the fourth quarter and was replaced by Austin Davis, whose 42-yard TD pass to Travis Benjamin tied the score with 1:47 remaining.
McCown left FirstEnergy Stadium with his right arm in a sling.
Coons’ potential game-winner from 51 yards was deflected by Urban, who was making his National Football League debut after missing his rookie season with a knee injury and then tearing a biceps in training camp. Lining up for a 50 yard field goal for the win, it was instead blocked by the Ravens and returned for a game winning touchdown.
The Ravens had a chance to win the game in the final minutes, but Schaub’s first pass on his final drive was picked off when cornerback Tramon Williams undercut Aiken, setting up the Browns for their final drive.
Browns kicked Coons was baffled at the missed field goal.
“You can look at that last field goal and point a finger there but there’s plays all over the film where offense, defense, special teams could have played a little better and gotten a couple more yards”, Mack said. When Schaub took the first snap, it marked the first time a quarterback other than Flacco started a game for the Ravens since December 30, 2007, when Troy Smith lead his team to victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. “I saw as soon as the block came, the ball was coming my way, and I said, ‘If I pick it up, I’m scoring'”.
McCown, who torched the Ravens for 457 yards in the first meeting, found his rhythm in the second quarter and the Ravens could do nothing to stop him.
For a game that nearly no one was looking forward to, Monday night’s AFC North match-up between the Cleveland Browns and the Baltimore Ravens actually turned out to be pretty exciting.
Schaub threw an interception that Browns linebacker Karlos Dansby returned for a 52-yard touchdown early in the third quarter.
The never-ending drama associated with the quarterback position in Cleveland rages on.
Now Manziel could be back in the lineup.
Browns fans might be numb to it all at this point. A group of disgusted Clevelanders arrived wearing brown paper bags over their heads as another season unravels on the shores of Lake Erie. They fell for the 14th time in 16 games dating back to last season.
