Wow. The Cleveland Browns lost to the Detroit Lions in preseason game number three 35-27. Does this mean the Lions are looking like a powerhouse this year or are the Browns going to do a repeat of last year? Fumbles, fumbles, and more fumbles can be a teams undoing. It's only pre-season.
Jake Delhomme is a quarterback with heart and he demonstrated that again in this game. After being facemasked and slam-twisted to the turf, Jake got up from the ground, brushed it off ready to continue play. Just another day on the job, business as usual. Delhomme was 20-25 with 152 yds and one touchdown pass. He's just having fun.
Joshua Cribbs made a great catch along the sidelines in this game. Will Cribbs see more touches this year as a wide receiver? Last year Cribbs was the Browns one constant. He was their biggest yardage producer and showed his versatility in any situation. Looking for Joshua Cribbs to have a great year no matter what position he finds himself in. They should think of changing the name "wildcat offense" to "wilddog offense" in the Browns case.
The Brown's finished the season last year with a winning streak of four. They have one more preseason game to play and then it will be off to Tampa Bay for the season opener at Raymond James Stadium. Hopefully the fumble thing will be worked out along with all the other little mishaps so the Browns can continue the winning streak(preseason games don't count). They will be a winner this year, just how much of a winner remains to be seen, although I did say Super Bowl XLVI in an article last season. Is that a bit of a stretch? Does it snow on the eastside of Cleveland in the snowbelt?
