Jets vs. Browns Week 3, 2018 FULL Game

he confused drew brees last week and he's one of the best at deciphering what a defense is doing I think it's going to be interesting to see how he's able to handle that that being Sam Donald but like you touched on Joe the real story this place is electric right now when you look at the schedule when it came out these fans saw Pittsburgh they saw a trip to New Orleans it said hi those don't look too good this game against the New York Jets they circled this one as that W they're ready to have a party here yeah we'll see if the Browns can give them that party let's go down to the field you know the Jets are playing their third game in the last 11 days quick turnaround Aaron quick turnaround you guys mentioned Sam darn 'old facing this Cleveland defense and he told me tonight just going to use the lessons he learned and that loss to Miami and apply them to tonight go with your gut and trust that your wide receivers are going to be where you need them to be his backup Josh McCown even joked with him and said look as a rookie you said a joke he's played three games in 11 days I promise you the prep will get a lot easier smooth sailing after tonight for more on the Browns was send it over to Christina pink hey Aaron alerts and Arnold that miles Garrett is bringing out the Welcome Wagon he told me this week that he is absolutely licking his chops to face this rookie quarterback he told me the key to slowing him down it's to not let him use his feet don't let him get comfortable in the pocket and keep him out of those short intermediate rows he told me hey they've got a young guy I'm ready to welcome him in this Browns defense has seven sacks through the first two games this season and tonight they want to rattle the rookie Joe all right Christina thank you and thanks to Aaron welcome in Mike Ferrara our rules expert and a lot of conversation they're not over it in green bein in my opinion nor should they be for the hit the Clay Matthews pull it on Kirk Cousins called for roughing the passer and this literally cost the Packers a win what were your thoughts on this play well I can understand why they wouldn't be happy in Green Bay because to me it is not a foul I mean he did everything you want a defender to do but the league did come out and defend Tony Caretti who made the call and even double down on incentive to the clubs but I've done that too when I was there you know I may be with occasionally too far to defend the official but here's what I feel if I was still there I would say to the referees don't change the way you've been calling it so I really do think if you give 10 more plays just like this they won't get called as roughing the passer little solace to the Green Bay Packers and their faithful and Lambeau Field they thought they had started to know instead it is a 100 and one start there's a weather 81 degrees humidity 67% the Jets won the toss they defer the Browns get the ball and that means we'll see Tyrod Taylor and this Cleveland offense to start the night glad you're with us on NFL Network as Jason Myers will kick it away grilled peppers watches it go over his head and out to the 25 films is it to rod is it tie rod either way he's number five for the Cleveland Browns and he's coming off a better effort last week in the loss at New Orleans after a rough go in that tie here at home to start the year against the Steelers yeah not an easy place to play there in New Orleans but you know hey everybody who watched that game saw what he was able to do there in the last two minutes and he put his team in a position to win the game twice in the kicking let him down they faked it to hide and then a throw quick pressure by Jordan Jenkins and a good start right out of the gate for this Jets defense let's look at this offense for the Cleveland Browns and made a shuffle right at the end of the preseason leading into week one with Desmond Harrison now the surprise left tackle and then the backs and receivers Antonio Callaway takes over the spot held by Josh Gordon in week one now the future Hall of Fame Hall of Famer Joe Thomas here in the building and great career they replaced him with an undrafted free agent Taylor keeps and a couple of and plays for the Cleveland Browns first an incompletion now a run of two yards will be third down and eight in this Jets defense very happy with how they started the season on day night in Detroit there were some mischances a week ago in that home loss to the Dolphins they've had some opportunities the thing that has really helped them this year has been the takeaways an area where they had a hard time coming up with him last season but of course many of those were in that week one win against the Detroit Lions [Applause] third down ma this one is floated and the reach of Antonio Callaway who showed his speed and what he can do downfield the whoopi from Florida last week in New Orleans but it is a quick three and out and there was no room out there whatsoever for the Browns on offense then Todd Bowles we came in talking about Greg Williams and what he wants to do defensively the Jets they like that style of play as well they bring the pressure they're on third down they got one on one on the outside but just not much there Britton Colquitt hits the punt with a fair catch at the 29 24 yard punt and here comes Sam Darnell and you were kind of busy over the offseason leading into that draft looking at all these quarterbacks and this was the guy that if you were a GM you would have taken I would have and I was a little surprised at the end of my evaluation period that I did pegged him as the number one guy going into it I'd only seen him play a few times at USC and it just happened to be games where didn't play particularly well but after studying all of them he was number one on my board and I think he was number one on the New York Jets board as well and they moved up gave up a lot to move up to number three but I think in their opinion they got who they regarded as the number one quarterback of the draft they want to run it better today toss to fill out power and Powell on first down gets four knocked down by Jabril peppers he's getting better and better at that free safety spot you know what's ironic is when I went to Sam Darnell's pro day to watch him work out course all the scouts and the coaches are all there I stood next to Todd Haley watching him work out in a downpour Todd Haley of course being the offensive coordinator for the grounds with the number one pick and he was awfully impressed but when they went through it all John Dorsey man was Baker Mayfield and he hasn't gotten his chance yet but I think he's going to have a bright future too in that future and that chance may come soon here's a nice play by the rookie Denzel Ward on a completion to Chris Herndon rookie on rookie and a loss of a one of the things that the Jets like to do is they like to move the pocket and they will throw some misdirection off of that and roll him out to the right which this is how he had the interception the first throw of his career when he tried going downfield but not fooled on the back side and this Denzel war tell you what I'm really high on this young man you get the number one quarterback in their opinion in Baker Mayfield with the first pick and then in the blue with the fourth pick you take what was the best corner in the draft and that's a heck of a first-year draft for John Dorsey third down and 14 contacts there are no flags as Powell was the target with James Burgess the linebacker in coverage Burgess starting for the injured Christian curtsy and it's three and out on each side well Joe Schobert the middle linebacker I think that's Weiss Sam Darnell had to double clutch it a little bit he had a chance to get it off but Schober was there and got in the throwing Lane and and then of course Burgess makes a play on the other round [Applause] he feels it cleanly on a hot brought down by Middleton for Lachlan Edwards a 50-yard punt bring out each side Browns have it back no school Thursday Night Football is brought to you by Bud Light enjoyed by giant blue fictional Knights everywhere and by KFC's new 10-piece chicken feast while the the blood light night guarding the fridge here in Cleveland with the mascot just dying to get their hands on a beer I don't know what this stadium holds but there there's a lot of people not only here but all around the city of Cleveland hoping to get their hands on up here by the end of the night yeah kind of explain that here and down it goes so they call them victory fridges it's maybe the greatest promotion in the history of promotions there are eight of those coolers in bars around town there's some here in the stadium each have 200 beers inside but lights and there's a Wi-Fi signal that if and when the Browns win they send out the signal the lock drops off the change drop off and everybody gets free beer that's going to be pandemonium huh disco demolition night [Applause] second and ten Taylor's been fathered and this one has just thrown away in the direction of Jarvis Landry well here in Northeast Ohio and grounds fans across the country and world have to think back to Christmas Eve 2016 the last win the Browns put on the board and they celebrated a 22:17 effort it's been 635 days since then a winless season a year ago oh 1 and 1 to start the season this year Taylor trying to sneak out great job and a first down carry and much more he leads NFL quarterbacks and rushing yardage through two games and he just got 22 yeah Kevin Zeidler he's going to get pressured back in to quarterback Tyrod Taylor and a pretty good job on the back end with coverage and he's able to then escape and Tyrod Taylor we've seen a lot of this through the first couple of weeks course that's part of his game and he's been able to come up with some some big runs when he's needed in his third and 10 and he's old for four to start this game not throwing it particularly well and you can tell things getting a little chippy here in the early going and we talked about how here in Cleveland you know they look at the schedule they say hey this is a game that we should win we'll tell you something jets coming off tough loss against dolphins they look at the Browns they said this is a game we should win so and I had a pressure on both of these clubs here in the third week of the season to come up to the victory [Applause] to Tanner and tailor Landry wide open but couldn't get it to him big pressure by Jamal Adams it was a very good second year safety out of LSU he's an outstanding player now in his second year he's right here and on the previous play he came off the left edge he's very good around the line of scrimmage he's outstanding off the edge as a Blitzer but Tyrod Taylor able to get it out of his hands this guy is is all football his father George Adams was a guy drafted in the first round by the Giants at 85 as a running back handoff is to who was a free agent addition from the 49ers gets four Avery Williamson on the stop so third down and six coming up [Applause] we'll see now Tyrod Taylor as I said he's yet to complete a pass and the last third down that they converted was him scrambling to pick that up it's the only one that they've been able to convert see if he's able to get back into some type of rhythm Tremayne Johnson not out there he checked out with his helmet off on that 22 yard run by Taylor here's more pressure can't bring him down and now aired out for Callaway contacts no flag incomplete [Applause] Claiborne and Middleton in coverage and they can't believe it here in Cleveland we're going to take a look at it here on the end the safety comes over and it looked to me Joe that that Middleton was playing the ball yeah there's contact I get it and I think they could have called it I don't know that it necessarily was a penalty down there the one off the foot of Britton Colquitt and Brienne body Calhoun there to tap it down after a perfect 47 yarder the Jets backed up in a scoreless first quarter in Cleveland you Jackson shaking his head wonder if that's remnants of that note call in the endzone we'll hear from Mike Pereira after a play as the Jets and his scoreless game start from there one [Applause] Isaiah Crowell former Brown gets it and is able to drive out of the end zone with James Burgess there to make the stop in Mike Pereira what did you see on this no call on Callaway Joe it is a good nose Hall because what you have is two players making a legitimate play on the ball they both have equal rights to it they collide shoulder-to-shoulder he's not playing through the back it's almost like the Hail Mary's two toys I think it's a great job of not calling interference second and nine trying to right-side his crow well to the fore to grill peppers down to make the stop such remain Johnson leave earlier Erin Andrews what's going on yeah no official word from the New York Jets on now we did see him go into the ten and Joe as we were told obviously when we see them that had specialized that means that's what they're looking at he did run into the locker room with him as well let you know when I hear so he is into the concussion protocol shermaine Johnson a vital add to this team as a free agent no see what Greg Williams wants to do here on third and seven if he's going to print pressure and try to put the hammer down on Sam Donald in the end zone rolling left throwing high incomplete with pressure by Miles Garrett the target was cruel well and Garrett has started this season in great form Greg Williams told us he thinks he could be one of if not the best ever at doing this if he stays healthy I think that when it's all said and done this year he's going to be in the running for Defensive Player of the Year we saw him at the preseason he was phenomenal he was great week one he's just an exceptional player give Jeremy Bates offensive coordinator some credit on that call there moved the pocket and get away from Miles Garrett and give yourself a chance pick it up but now great field position to start this Drive after 2-3 announced and on the dead run Jabril peppers takes it inside the 40 and that's exactly what they've got 43 yard punt and on the return 9 yards with Kevin Pierre Lewis on the stop [Applause] well each side is got to be happy with the way their defense is started but now opportunity knocking for I thought one of the things that was interesting in visiting with Sam Darla that already at such a young age he says the difference between pro and college is college if you don't score touchdown you're disappointed throws you really it's a pill position game he desperately wanted to pick up the first down hard to score when you're backed up like that but James field position they're not they're unable to put the first down and now you've got Cleveland on their side of the 50 Jets get home and sack Tyrod Taylor as Avery Williamson got through and he was not alone big Steve McClendon was back there and they are coming after Tyrod Taylor well they are they're bringin people off the edges and they're testing this clev protection and quite simply the Browns have not had an answer for it that's the first sack of the ball game hey my fourth but they have been back there and Tyrod Taylor's laughed throughout this first quarter and he didn't hit knocked down four times and after loss of seven on that sack a gain of three and Henry Anderson made the play atoms in there as well and the crowd is growing restless with the start of this Browns offense yeah this Jamal Adams I talked about him just a moment ago coming off the edge he's around the line of scrimmage he was right there to help make the play and he is a smart smart football player you talk to anybody who's been around him even going back to when he was in college and his acumen for the game and his ability as unbelievable range he's as tough as they come he loves contact he's an old school safety guy like Ronnie Lott who could just do it all nothing in this crowd is letting the grounds offense here at a gain of two and the first completion does basically nothing from Tyrod Taylor and with that great field position the Browns managed to mess it up well there's Todd Haley the offensive coordinator and as we know this has been an offense through two games that that hasn't been you know all that productive but the client aggressive defense third and long give the ball out away with any points on that drive just where they started that drive big disappointment 30 yard punt here about energy in this building no points so far nothing nothing on Thursday Night Football you are watching Thursday Night Football presented by Bud Light have been five possessions so far one first down between these two teams five would settle in on first down [Applause] forced out by the carry this defense for Cleveland the first couple of games well they have done so far what they didn't do last year racking up sacks but the takeaways they lead the NFL and takeaways after having 13 all last year they already have eight under the direction of Greg Williams the other thing that they've done a better job this year of is pasty-faced it wouldn't show based on the total yards but in facing both Roethlisberger in Brees Roethlisberger through 41 times Brees 35 so the numbers are a little inflated but they've been better there is a pass caught on the edge by a new noix who has develops into Sam Donaldson target and a first down for the Jets a gain of 14 last year this defense was very good against the run but they just simply couldn't cover anybody in this defense this year is only going to be as good as their past coverage and that's why they went out and they drafted Denzel Ward they bring in Terrence Mitchell they basically rebuilt the secondaries Randall now playing safety again it is a much better group last year they were playing a lot of base coverages even against three wide receiver looks like simply because they have no confidence in their secondary and being able to hold up and not the case this year darnell doubt to his right running for his life and throws it away fire the target [Applause] and with that Lee will tell you that Sunday at 9:00 Kurt Warner goes one-on-one with Russell Wilson plus the guys preview Carson Wentz's returned to the field NFL game day morning Sunday at 9:00 live on NFL Network looking forward to watching that we we get Russell Wilson in the Seattle Seahawks against the Cowboys on Sunday and you know talk about a team that's kind of got to back against the wall after a very disappointing Monday night game against the Bears you see if they're able to regroup they get a few guys help them this next week Powell left side back to the line of scrimmage that is it Danny Collins was out there to make the stop no gain the running game was not existent for Sam darn 'old against the Dolphins after really showing up well against the Lions week one yeah and that was a disappointment now they were facing a heck of a defensive front in the Miami Dolphins but you got a young quarterback you're trying to protect the guy and Jeremy Bates said hey we've got to be able to run the football take some of the pressure off Sam darn old and Greg Williams knows that as well it's been tough sledding so far which is usually the case though when you're trying to run the ball against a good front they're down in ten and Arnold is sacked Gareth Gregg Williams said as Darnell kind of limps off the note jet fan wants to see that but this guy's got such speed coming off the edge well they run the twist and he starts on the outside he loops around so then he's taking the the center guard gap is where he hits it and when you look at the Jets through the first two weeks it is an offensive line that has struggled with those types of defensive games not surprised that Greg Williams dials it up on third down he gets home with miles Gareth Edwards hits a booming punt sending peppers back inside the 15 [Applause] and to tackle near the 17 18 yard line a 61 yard punt it's the long of the year so far for Edwards the short season two plus games and to hear from Jerome Boger for the first time tonight chance to see Sam Donald down there on the sidelines into a man when you ask people about him during the kid holding we see the team number 36 half the dishes to the gold first down timeout well here is darn 'old when he was sacked by Garret going down awkwardly back after this Thursday night football is brought to you by Verizon the best unlimited is on Verizon America's most awarded network and delivered by Pizza Hut official pizza sponsor of the NFL no one out pizzas the Hut welcome back to Cleveland no score four and a half left first quarter the punt the 61 yarder by Edwards helped to flip field position Browns last drive started Jets 39 [Music] here's a handoff to hide running right nice cutback and Carlos hideout to the twenty nine Middleton on the stop and a carry of twenty one well Orson Charles number 82 is going to come here and then he works across look at the block that he sets up Carlos Hyde works off of that and he's got a crease that's a great job of getting the ball off your goal line stick with hide in a nice carry on first down as scream makes the stop a gain of five well it's been tough sledding through two games for Carlos Hyde and I've said it throughout his career I really like the way this young man runs I think he's tough I like one like the Williams in San Francisco and they just have not been able to get him going a little bit but last couple runs have been nice they drafted a kid from Georgia in the second round Nick job on it I'd expect to start seeing a little bit more of half as well and he's going to be knocked down a couple short of the first down here's some sound from the Jets sideline these three times already we're talking about that there's the sack but with Robert on the defensive line coach is saying is hey stay up field foursome back into your help we've seen Tyrod Taylor escape the pocket when they had been there to make a play a lot of pressure from this Jets defense bring a lot of people that looked like they're showing it here on third short and dragged to the ground by Darren Lee is Tyrod Taylor the loss of six and I'm going to say it now with two and a half minutes left in the first quarter I think the clock is ticking on Tyrod Taylor not in the season I think tonight well I wouldn't necessarily disagree with that on that play however Joe Tyrod Taylor didn't have much of a chance David majokoi there's a punt blocked it is touched by the Jetson out of bounds inside the 30 is Kevin Pierre Lewis got through to block the punt and the special teams under the direction of Brant Boyer makes a play and the Jets are set up in this scoreless first Nick job he's he's the one who was responsible for making the block and it just was not a real good effort on his part [Applause] that was that was too easy and their lows you see that the job for lack of from Nick Chubb he works on these things I'm sure but I couldn't assure you that that's not something he did much of at Georgia Tippett big play by Kevin Pierre Lewis long time very good special teams player in the NFL [Applause] this throw is wide for Jermaine Kearse second down in ten so the Browns have had one opportunity deep inside Jets territory and now with a block punt this Drive starts at the 28 we'll see if Cleveland defensively is able to maybe create another takeaway at the at the most just give up a field goal opportunity 5350 there's been a game a fill position the the grounds were unable to do and with it earlier we'll see if the Jets are here [Applause] and he is going to lose yardage a loss of one these two quarterbacks tonight have combined Darnell and Taylor to go 3 for 13 for 8 yards that's it it's been yeah it's been a defensive battle to say the least you know both these defenses are approved from where they were and I also think that there's a feeling out process going on right now offensively and some of that is because of what they're facing with the pressures and some of that quite simply is just understanding what's at stake here for both these teams see the play clock at 2:00 and the Jets sideline calls the timeout / to talk about 1/3 and 11 is darn 'old in time for a brief message from the US Army coach Todd Bowles wondering at that blocked punt will lead to a touchdown a field goal try whatever third and 11 better block that guy miles Garrett once quick throw pass caught by a new noir big play first down and more inside the 15-yard line peppers on the stop but a crisp throw from Darnell for 16 yards yes it's great execution Spencer along the center he gets out he makes a nice block and get the ball out quickly to a new moi and let him go do his thing this guy's 235 pounds he's been extremely active miss ball last year then the most targeted guy by far through the first two games but when he has the ball on his hands he seems like a running back he looks for contact that's a great job after the catch of going and getting the first down [Applause] here's a toss to crow Wow the former bra spins off a couple of hits and takes it to the 6 with half a minute left in the opening quarter last week Sam Darnell became the youngest in the history of the league to throw for over 300 yards he's just 21 years old and to me he's got what you need to be a star athlete in New York he's got the ability he's also a grounded kid he's respectful he gets the big picture reminds me of Aaron Judge the Yankees outfielder he can play but he can handle the spotlight the block pot by Kevin Pierre Louis setting up opportunity for the Jets into the second we go welcome back to Thursday Night Football presented by Bud Light it is a new quarter second quarter second down in four yeah we'll see what the Jets are able to do it's been a struggle down here in the red zone through the first two weeks they were just one for four inside the 20 in the opener against Detroit last week gold for two and until you kick field goals you typically lose games handoff to crow L and he will walk in for the touchdown Isaiah Crowell we spent four years as a Cleveland Brown takes that block punt by Kevin Pierre Lewis cashes in a big completion by darn 'old on that drive on third and long you see the outside receivers there Jermaine Kearse and Robbie Anderson they crashed down they're able to seal the edge and just nobody there last week against the Saints the Browns really struggled against some of those outside runs particularly down around the goal line late in that game and they've been exposed a little bit here [Applause] extra point sneaks in off the right foot of Jason Myers it's a seven to nothing Jess lead and time for a message from Pizza Hut and Sleep Number well it took a little while to get started but the Jets take that block punt by that man Kevin Pierre Lewis turn it into seven and that completion to in noon wah for 16 yards on third and 11 as what got a man there's a block by Pierre Louis and the Jets trying to go to two and one with a win here tonight leave by 7:00 [Applause] did you know first Monday Night Football game involved these two franchises good evening everyone welcome ladies these Monday night primetime National Football League television tips first down New York at their own 18 yard line 47 seconds to play [Applause] it's great Browns wanted by a final 3121 here's one aired out for Callaway and underthrown he was clear of Tremaine Johnson good to see him back by five maybe 10 yards it just floated on Tyrod Taylor Antonio Callaway is a four for legit guy and he can fly I mean Tremaine Johnson there is no way he's going to be able to make up the ground the ball floated on him and it allowed Johnson to get back underneath and I think Tyrod Taylor fought that he could have come back and maybe may make a play on the ball and maybe he could try to go up and high pointed a little bit but if that ball was out there that's a touchdown Taylor started one four eight four two yards and I don't care what he says that was an under throw that was an under throw and there's no doubt and throwing with that kind of speed sometimes it's hard to take a look at last week and this was a dime by Tyrod Taylor on fourth and five San Antonio Callaway when this ball was thrown I didn't think there was any way he was gonna be able to go and make the play on the ball and yet he was able to 21 miles per hop hurt this was his top speed when he was repping that post route and I was watching it at home fourth and five and they and oh no and then oh yes what a play they're down in six blitz off the edge and Taylor goes down the first there was Buster screen and this crowd is even more frustrated Henry Anderson joined in a loss of nine on the sack well Todd Bowles and Casey Rogers they're dialing some things up and they're doing it with a lot of different people we've seen Jamal Adams he's come off the edge his time Buster screen and screen is more thrilled about having Johnson here on this team that anybody it's allowed him to get a big punt return for a touchdown week one at Detroit Tyrod Taylor missed a shot deep goes down on the sack on third down he is frustrated so with the fans down so welcome back to Thursday Night Football presented by blood lay Tyrod Taylor and Antonio Callaway will be going to sleep tonight if the Browns don't win this game thinking about that missed chance with Callaway getting behind Jermaine Johnson on that last possession look at it again darn old from the 37 keeps rolls to his right throws kicked by the middle linebacker Joe Schobert let's go back to that missed opportunity and watch Tyrod Taylor in the pocket a little lackadaisical on his drop and when that happens and then you double clutch it he's gonna hit hit and then it will blaze it it hangs on when you got a guy with the kind of speed that Antonio Callaway has you can't lollygagging around back there in the pocket and I know for me when I was playing throwing the rocket is Mel with that kind of speed I mean you better get back there and let it go and you know these guys are working together Josh Gordon's not here they baited Corey Coleman and there's a lot going on but I assure you Tyrod Taylor knows the towel wears a burner here's Powell with a cutback good run first down jets at midfield right around Chris Smith and got 14 the thing is to finish up on that is as an offensive coordinator and Todd Haley you can spend an entire game waiting to get the look you want when you call a shot you know everybody says sometimes how can I not take any shots well sometimes they're called they're just simply not there due to coverage you three and then when you get it in this league when you get those looks you just simply have to cash in again left side and there's some room out there he gets eight and a half knocked down by Schubert Pro Bowler from a year ago the Jets able to move the ball just a little bit Darnell came very close to an interception by Schubert earlier in this Drive darn 'old so far has three touchdowns three interceptions coming off a toothpick day against the Dolphins a little surprised that Joe Schobert didn't hold that one in he's one of the best athletes on the field right now a guy who started out last year as the third stream linebacker went on to be one of the leaders in tackles in all of the NFL and made his first court ball but he's a heck of an athlete this place shut down a timeout taken by the jet timeout New York their second we saw a video of Schobert during the preseason going between the legs on a dunk with a basketball and he came through and had a clear shot at that thing I was I was watching some of his basketball exploits this week I saw him doing 360 it's slamming you know the guy he's only 6 1 but he's he's the freak of an athlete I know that I know the great William really likes this guy and like I said he kind of emerged out of nowhere last year and in fact he's such a great athlete I talked about how they played very little nickel when they bring in a 50 pence aback one was they didn't feel great about the nickel linebacker and the other reason was because of Joe Schobert he's such a great athlete they used him as the nickel back much like Carolina does with Shaq Thompson so that's that's a real compliment to what what he can do second down and two [Applause] upside cuts back as a first down in satin 35 Hogan Joel B who is really making a name for himself the defensive tackle after a gain of eight made the stop but you talk about the offensive line and some of the changes that they've made they brought in Spencer long they got a healthy Brian winters they feel better about the group but I think the reason they feel really good about it they got a new offensive line coach Rick Dennison right there and he learned under Alex Gibbs in this zone blocking scheme he's one of the best teachers that has ever coached in the NFL he truly is one of the greats and he's an outstanding coach and probably the best in football toss to crow over on that side it's Kelvin Peacham the left tackle it's James Carpenter the left guard and they're running behind Beecham mean abate their what they wanted to do is you said Joe they were unable to get it going last week against the Dolphins and they know they can't just sit back there with Arnold against this high-pressure defense get the running game going and they use these backs they platoon them both they both flip carries pretty much they use all all situations isochron he comes over he was the leading rusher for the Browns the last three seasons well back there here one second and two gets it left side again and a loss on the play of to Logan Joby got through to make the stops of 34 gets her inside field goal range for Jason Myers who has a big leg you know they've been on the left side and miles Jarrett is a but sometimes you run out those pass rushers and you try to wear them down a little they've been going to his side and with with success on the ground they're down the floor quick throw past caught that scene in walk down to the 11th when Donald has had his success the balls come out of his right hand fast that was a catch and run of 16 by Quincy in noon one we saw it on the first third down that they converted there in the first quarter they come out they get the ball out quick they've got Jermaine Kearse who's making a key block right there essentially takes on two guys he jams him right up in to the defender who's covering he knew walk and then you've got Bryan winters and Spencer long I think it's a well-designed play by Jeremy Bates don't know got rid of it so fast he didn't even get the laces just let it slide good for 16 toss to crow the ten to the five and he is running hard a gain of six Terrence Mitchell on the stuff and the Jets now are taking control of this first half yeah Isaac crow well as I said he's he spent the previous years with the Cleveland Browns and you can imagine what what this game means to him coming back here to Cleveland he's running like it and in the meantime we talked we talked about this crowd wanting to have a party well they're not too thrilled right now it's gotten awfully quiet around here from the five there's Crowell again he's going to be knocked down a little short of first down yardage so third and less than a yard for Todd Bulls Jets goals in his fourth year he's gone ten and six and then back to back five and 11 seasons no playoffs yet start down less than a yard offensive line comparison into the game versus four down territory for jets 45 yards rushing on a drive here's a cutback for the touchdown for Crowell Isaiah Crowell he's got a couple and that'll draw a flag every time is that Jonathan Harrison that they put in an air at pullback I think that's who it was 78 they don't have a blocking fullback so they use tight ends and then when they get down here real close just bring in an extra lineman here he is right here it just powers his way and it's pretty good feeling as it back he get in behind that and just force your way through Joe Schobert unable to keep him from getting the out there number 20 that 15-yard penalty would be a fourth or the in fluid kickoff so you talked about for a well and coming back here to Cleveland he gets a visit from stump Mitchell his running backs with that act after the touchdown the flag for the 15-yard penalty for clearly unsportsmanlike conduct this to make it a 14 to nothing game sputtered at the start put the Jets have settled in here's that near pigs by Schobert Jets took that opportunity into the endzone Thursday Night Football is brought to you by the Crown Royal water break moderate your drinking to stay in the game the Jets are taking control of this game is a block punt by Kevin Pierre Lewis had set up the first score Isaiah Crowell has both touchdowns for the Jets they lead 14 to nothing and then crow el with a dumb penalty at the end of the touchdown run that means the kickoff from Jason Meyers comes from the 20 Callaway is waiting deep along with carry and carry we'll take it back to grilled peppers is in that blue tent and TJ carry ran into a wall named Neville Hewitt and just a 21-yard return out to the 26 and before the game these two have a nice relationship getting to know each other through the grep process I thought it was interesting true when you talk to Sam and Arnold he didn't know the night of the draft whether his name was going to be called by the Browns and as we all know it was Baker major and Baker Mayfield didn't know I mean no until right when the pick was was put in today what I think Tyrod Taylor has got about one more drive before these fans are clamoring for Bangor Maine backing up and somehow able to find hi but there's nothing there Henry Anderson out there to make this stop and a good play and now Tyrod Taylor's grabbing his back Mayfield's got his helmet on but these Browns Troy and the fans in this stadium came into this game was something they haven't had in a while and that's expectations I mean they're a three point favorite this is a game they thought they would win it's still really early and there is opportunity here to see how much longer they stay with Taylor it was just a matter of time and they want to see Baker Mayfield they know what he did in college they know why he was drafted and it has been a struggling like you said Joe the first two weeks okay we understand they were still optimistic they're still fired up about the season a lot of young players some optimism a lot of things to like but if this Browns team does not win tonight I'm telling you they're going to lose a lot of people as far as their confidence and what this season can become some of the crowds start a Baker chant on 3rd down the pack see the reach of the Landry and we will keep our eyes on that sideline as Taylor comes back a flag is down late on the sidelines and Taylor may get a reprieve we'll see we'll see he's 2 of 11 for just 2 yards and those last two passes he had open guys who just flat-out missed the throws [Applause] after the play was over unsportsmanlike conduct defense number 22 15-yard penalty automatic first one that's Tremaine Johnson so that's two unsportsmanlike conduct calls against the Jets and this gives here's the reason and that threw the flag as he hands the ball to Jarvis Landry but this gives Taylor a chance to at least go back out there for the moment [Applause] not been able to get Jarvis Landry going yet in this ball game here's Nick shove the wookie and whether it's Tyrod Taylor or Baker may feel the offensive line for the Cleveland Browns is getting overwhelmed right now there's no room to run and there's no time back there for Taylor to throw the ball yeah that's for sure I mean there's a lot kind of special on that offensive line some of the things that went through in the in the training camp trying to put them together Zeitlin missed a lot of time there right bar it's not a group that's that's work the law Taylor is going to pull it down in the wrong on the play Taylor gets hit hi and that draws a flag could be offsetting fouls here to name Johnson with that high hit on Tyrod Taylor and there was an early flag where he is that cold or something like that against Cleveland we'll see but the hip had two fouls on the plate one against Ichi holding offense number 64 personal foul defense number 22 he filed all fit replay second down so we got an unsportsmanlike conduct remain Johnson got a five-year seventy two and a half million dollar deal there's a hold as Taylor slips past it and this wasn't very smart by Tremaine Johnson he's going down that's the second penalty now and this Kevin green and one of the Great's and got inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame just an awesome Diana tell the player back in his day but those those penalties Jermaine Johnson now he's had a couple of [Applause] so second down in ten [Applause] I had in the backfield does this officiating crew seems five possessions but they're so confused I wonder what they're talking about they don't see even [Applause] imagine that they're talking about a possible injection I don't I don't think that that would come into play I just think really they got a little confused about where to put the ball after the offsetting penalties it started the down started second intended and I think you do replay buzz down to check it but they wanted to make sure that they got it spotted right back with the confusion it is right second out in ten and office - what a job by this Jets defense Darren Lee got through the third-year linebacker from Ohio State Adams was back there as well and Todd Bailey's offense can't get anything going here is you're going to see what Darren Lee is able to do because if Hyde had been able to get away from him there there really was nobody else out there and he just kind of lost his balance but Hyde was excuse me Lee was there to make a play this Jets defense in this first half date they've just played at a faster speed than Cleveland has grounds are under two yards but play the five and a half to go in the half to the sidelines and what a catch and a reach for a first down that was sensational by Jarvis Landry great catch and then going out of bounds reached for the first down on the outside they turn Antonio Callaway loose he has a shot they just busted the coverage Tremaine Johnson just lets him go still yet though that's a that's a great job these these are the types of types of things Jarvis Landry you know does regularly just knowing where he was and knowing what he needed to do and they can they feel like it like everyone else twelve yards to Landry six target first catch good protection this time and tailor tops it off to eyes downfield finally dropped it off and daringly on the stop after a gain of five as the Browns are inside Jets territory I think Todd Haley saw what we saw when they turned Calloway loose they come back with a similar scheme and getting Landry down the middle Callaway up the right sideline fortunately Tyrod Taylor has lots of time in the pocket Jets covered it up very well and so he does the right thing and checks it down second and five right [Applause] he's got a first down as the Browns start to get momentum to the 33 Middleton on the stop tomorrow on NFL Network check out what critics have called the best morning show on sports television and legit entertaining it is it's a great show good morning football tomorrow at 7:00 only on NFL Network you know I watch that show every morning and I thoroughly enjoyed they do a great job but there used to be Schrager bombs and I don't know what happened to those the little inside nuggets from Crete Peter Schrager one of the regulars and know he's got big time on us and I think he's just left what kind of guy yeah those were the Schrager bombs first is to to Johnson and the crowd is happy to see that they want to see this guy get more involved he's been great catching the ball out of the backfield and now they handed to him for 80 yards he's a he's a special player he led the team in receiving last year you know as a as an running back he says he he'd rather catch the ball and actually run with the football they like splitting him out doing a lot of different things but he's a versatile guy to say the least and they're splitting him out now [Applause] timeout taken here by Cleveland so we'll take a break two second down and two a little light for the Browns trailing by 14 307 left in the half welcome back to Thursday Night Football presented by Bud Light second down in tune at Browns down 14 play-action Taylor [Applause] and if I told you who that was for I would be guessing Orson Charles the tight end [Applause] we've got one camera Troy I think just locked in on Baker may fish over on this side 11 and now flag for grounder Brown [Applause] just because the receiver runs remote out that doesn't mean that you can't get called for pass interference it's right here this was director Jarvis Landry and it seemed to me like he was the one who Tyrod Taylor's thought was going to go to the corner Landru I think that's a good call so does Mike Pereira giving the thumbs up to your right Landry and Orson Charles the big tight end because you said he wasn't under pressure oh I think the pressure he's gotta go third down and 12 this is a restless crowd remember they have a new kicker and Greg Joseph by the way if this drive still frustrated and now Taylor is going to go down a flag on the play but Avery Williamson gets through again and it's a hold against Cleveland that'll be declined Oh offense that was 74 this clearly earth decline maybe with him said he comes in he gets his second sack of the day and I think that you know protection was not great but I think that's one there was a place there for Tyrod to make a throw he had a guy work in the middle of the field and if you anticipate it you have time to cut that loose and you know they had a nice Drive going disappointing they backup and now there's their force with a punt and this is an offense it's only scored six points in the first half and their first two games and they've got none here to show for tonight that sack knocked the Browns [Applause] Baker chant picks up a little more steam let's talk about Cleveland sports championship teams for more here's Christina yeah this is a crowd in a city that is starved for championship just four championships for the Browns way back in the 60s was the last one the Cleveland Indians 1920 in 1948 for the most recent back in 2016 with the Cleveland Cavaliers this is a crowd that is getting raucous and rowdy they're ready to see some success here Joe well they might be able to celebrate a world championship in baseball their Indians team is fantastic running away with the division so it could be a fun October here in Cleveland right on September [Applause] very fun couple of years is Bill out Paulo loses three on the play and a good piece of work by the Browns defense no Joe we hear this crowd there chant for Baker Mayfield and a lot of discussion as to how you bring this young guy long Patrick mahomes we've seen what he's done this year after sitting down for a season and then of course Aaron Rodgers those are the quarterbacks that people point to and how successful they've been not playing right away well Patrick mahomes he had Alex Smith in front of him playing and then Aaron Rodgers had Brett Favre in front of him playing that's not going to happen and so in an entirely different situation here in Cleveland based on their history what they've not been able to do the struggles they've had and Baker Mayfield he doesn't have a future hall-of-famer in front of him like Aaron Rodgers had 2-minute warning here in Cleveland second and 13 for the Jets when we come back as they lead by 14 stay tuned for the Lexus halftime report we'll figure out who's on the other end of that phone call with Baker Mayfield well they came and got him and said that they were summoning him to get to the phone so that's a an interesting situation there as to what might have been said that first question on the upcoming Lexus half that might be answered here's a flag on the play as cro well over the right side loses one and it's a hold against the Jets and get the call from Boger holding offense number 61 coolies decline well there's news about Tyrod Taylor Christina Taylor right now is currently in the boom medical tent watch the play here on this play went down and slammed his head on the ground he has inside the tent with the independent neuro trauma consultant which does indicate that he is being evaluated for a concussion they watched the hit on the replay monitors and they're back in the tent talking to him yeah that's why Baker was on the phone that's why he just kind of sprung to life over there here's a big third in food as I think Jeremy Bates at AA stick for a while left side out to the five that's it I think that's a smart call though by Jeremy Bates your backed up a lot of bad things can happen it's third and 14 and the likelihood of being able to throw that for a first down not very good you you force then the Cleveland Browns to burn one of their two remaining timeouts so I think that was the right decision offensively but they do give the Browns an opportunity now here before the half and it appears that that's going to be Baker made fields debut well now we know it will be Baker Mayfield's debuts Taylor's being led off the field the Browns uses timeout they have one timeout left they're about to get it back and we are about to see the pro debut at least in the regular season of Baker major yeah and I'm interested to see how they're gonna play it now they should get great field position and you know let Baker I'm sure they're not going to have him handcuffed let him do his thing there's plenty of time but this should be fun Landry back to field the punt inside the 45 and the crowd reacts to the emergence of Baker Mayfield off the bench well when we saw this scheduled Joe we thought hey week three Thursday night this could be Baker Mayfield versus Sam darn old and fornicate Cody the season team number 38 first time they get the holding penalty so now they're gonna back him up a little bit more but still outstanding field position and we get a chance to see what Baker Mayfield is going to do and I can tell you I talked to him down the field before the game I said are you ready to go tonight he said I am ready to go if called upon and this is gonna be a fun Drive right here fun second half they knew they had their man the Browns when they saw the ball come out of his hand throwing his teammates in the staff reacted to him his pro day at Heisman Trophy winner 14 yards in a first down will admit it and a half to go and one time out here he goes he's great at the line of scrimmage he knows this offense this is when he's at his best at playing up-tempo is caught at the 35 by the Joker good catch for the big tight end great catch by a guy who's had some problems catching the football but he went down and made a play for his quarterback 17 yards to the Joker let's right back to his left boilers out picked up by the offensive lineman 4:9 and everything is working for the grounds I think this is going to come back inside of two minutes of bumble cannot be advanced good call it is stay with Clea before mounting the wings at the two-minute warning when the ball is fumbled by a player and that player can advance the football the ball may return to the 43 yard line second down free Jordon Jenkins knocked it out bateau neo made the pickup and run but because it's inside two minutes he doesn't get to advance it and here are the two completions by Baker Mayfield well that first row of his career he dropped back put his foot the front in the ground and then he turned it loose I mean knew exactly where he owes go on was decisive read the coverage comes back would like to have had a better throat into Joe ku but still a nice pickup the fumble you know he will learn that because the difference in collagen Pro one of the big things I learned he's used to be named escape the pocket now at Oklahoma that's hard to do these pizza he's a 4:8 guy he's not gonna outrun these defensive linemen I learned that when Reggie White tracked me down from behind so he's got to be smart and he'll he'll figure that out so this is a loss of eight because of that play made by Jordan Jenkins instead of a because it's inside two minutes and now it's second down and 18 no timeouts left for Cleveland they just took their final timeout with 46 seconds left well you need another Chucky yard it has to get in the field the way they need to get great Joseph's longest field goal is 54 yards so they need to get to the 36 yard line you know which is you know what eight yards or whatever it is and so Baker Mayfield needs to know that you know yeah you'd like to keep the drive go on 49 seconds pick up a first down get into the end zone but you'll be smart about any any points here is a real positive thing going in halftime the Jets get the ball to start the second half they just picked up their fourth sack they come on a blitz passes call landry stays up but he's short of a first down they can't spike it it's third down it would bring up fourth and may feels gonna run a play [Applause] to the sideline [Applause] contact no flag with Claybourne out on the edge good play and now we'll see what the Browns want to do and they are going to bring on their field goal unit this was it needs to drive this ball down low if he if he pulls him back towards the sidelines it was a kind of a night unlike the route he's jogging through the route and with his speed he should have separation every time he runs a comeback but they're going to give Greg Joseph's an opportunity and you know wonder what he's feeling right now most popular man and we can hit cutting Zayn Gonzales they were cheering him in the pregame warmups this from 45 pushes it through and the Browns are on the board with 23 seconds left it was kind of that tigerwood stinger fade and that thing was outside the left upright with some heat on it but like you Jackson told us when we were talking to him about Gregg Joseph he said I just want a guy who can put it through the uprights what we said what do you know about and he said I don't know we know that he grew up in Johannesburg his family moved to Florida he was a terrific kicker at Florida Atlantic he was cut by the Dolphins in their final cuts and he won a kicking competition on Monday with Blair Walsh and Kiro Santos to get the job and he's one for one Danny you know he was in Miami Dolphins training camp he got cut and so it's not like he's kind of coming out of nowhere he's been kicking the ball and you know just a few weeks removed from that cut but making that field goal his first had something to build on he'll be more confident the next time here and here's a mistake that's out of bounds maybe he doesn't have confidence now because that's not very good he's all fired up and drove it out of bounds kick your team if I rule the ball B plays 25-yard for the free kick line first time so 23 seconds left good field position and a timeout here's the field goal 45 yards when it was it was not pretty good award I thought he I thought you need to the left when when it came off his foot but it sounds away but yeah now and you're setting up the Jets with with one timeout and you know there's there's plenty of time now for them to come down and and match it and get some points of their own that's a 40 pick mistake [Applause] steps into it in case you're wondering Myers long 55 yards a week ago that means getting it to the 37 you hit from 58 during the preseason you gotta get this ball inside the other 40 they're 20 yards away from that 20-plus Sam darn 'old for the game is for 4/10 38 yards Baker Mayfield on that one drive through for more yardage 3 4 4 4 47 [Applause] the edge and that's Herndon the tight-end 14 seconds at a time out there's time left there is time out Gregg Williams he's not coming after him he will Greg Williams will if he starts to get the ball into field goal range and he'll then come after him and try to create a negative play right now playing conservative playing coverage forced the ball out quickly and hopefully they like to rally and keep them in bounds and force them to use this last timeout third down and three was a miscommunication and nearly picked [Applause] Terrence Mitchell and coverage with Pryor the target and Mitchell was in better position and Pryor Terrence Mitchell I think he's been a real upgrade for them at that corner position at fourth and three now one team comes on and this is going to barring the unforeseen Landry back will end 14th a little surprised me Sam Darnell does not have the strongest arm I've said it before but he doesn't have this just cannon of an all and that's probably why they're not drive snap and that should be yet but I'll tell you there is life here in the stadium there is life on that sideline because number six is in the game just got the sense for that one drive everybody just kind of picked it up for the Browns on off yeah you felt it then and they were feeding off this crowd - because crap had a little more enthusiasm themselves I would think they'll just take a knee here but they'll go in they'll discuss how the what the game plan is going to be Todd Haley will and they'll come out and let it rip and it should be a fun 30 minutes up all the Jets will start the second half with the football they'll be leaving by 11 stay tuned for the Lexus halftime report the truth [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] and welcome back to you Thursday Night Football presented by Bud Light 14 3 game at the half 3rd quarter about start Jets we'll start the second half with the football welcome you inside the booth I'm Joe Buck along with the hall-of-famer Troy Aikman so obviously a lot of drama left in this game with Baker Mayfield not taking over for Cleveland on the other side the Jets have been able to run the ball they have not really been able to throw it with much success at all well I think both defenses have really done a pretty good job the Jets essentially have put together one drive for a touchdown the other one was because of the blocked field goal I think this drive for Cleveland is going to be big defensively because they're facing a Jets offense that is out sport their opponent 37 to 7 in the third quarter and they've scored touchdowns on their opening possession to start the third quarter so they they've had success in the first two games coming out at half time Cleveland if they're able to make a stop get the ball back to Baker Mayfield and then see what happens but I'm optimistic I sense I just feel that that Baker Mayfield is going to be able to do some things I like his moxie and I expect Cleveland to get back in the scheme speaking of the Cleveland Browns let's check in with Christina pink Thank You Joe Baker may feel the rest of the way after talking to Hugh Jackson at the half Tyrod Taylor has officially been ruled out after being evaluated for a concussion but when I asked him about the performance of his rookie quarterback on that drive he went 3 for 4 for 47 yards he stopped me and said did you feel the energy he said balls completed balls thrown into windows he said we have to see that in the second half that he never doubted the composure of Mayfield taking the field joke all right thank you Christina starting from the 25 are the Jets leading by 11 darn 'old 5 for 12 has to avoid the rush in a sack is able to complete it to the sidelines to Isaiah Crowell and on first down a gain of seven Erin Andrews what did you learn Todd Bowles telling me his team did look at quite a bit of film of Baker Mayfield in preparation for this game but he said I don't care what quarterback is in my defense his game plan stayed the same he said forget the quarterbacks I'm going to talk to my team about penalties for this offense like the way they ran the ball likes the way they were physical hopes to continue it here in the second half all right Aaron thank you now second down and three hey gang ready there is pro well and elegant Joby is in the backfield to make the stop Chris Smith is well a loss of three third and six this ogen Joby is having himself a heck of a start to this season two sacks last week against the Saints had a chance for a third he gets an interior Bush he has really been something and that was a was a really good play there him filling the hole third down and six it's coming from the Browns darn 'old steps through it unloads has a first down and a catch by crow Elle [Applause] by the way just something to keep in mind as you look at this replay of the 10 yard completion there are two players for the Jets for well being one of them the other Jermaine Johnson each one unsportsmanlike conduct penalty against them away being ejected from this game that's new for 2017 - and you're out I'm sure that they were reminded of that by their respective coaches now gets it on a toss running right and purchase is there to make the stop at me get on that right leg and James is in pain he sure is he makes it he makes a great play on that he's headed a lot of action in the backfield and then you see that he is oh man Gilbert hit his right knee ugly injury to James Burgess Thursday Night Football is brought to you by Hyundai official sponsor of the NFL and by Courtyard by Marriott the official hotel of the NFL somehow despite that ugly contact with his right leg James Byrd just smiling over on the sideline as it gets looked at in the medical tent now second down and 11 to grill peppers back in the game for the Browns [Applause] keeps it throws it to the sideline and about Robbie Anderson so third down and 11 we'll see what they're able to do here he had a chance on the on the outside that's that's one of the throws that has really gotten away from him I have been impressed with Sant Arnold we saw a few plays earlier with some pressure and there's a good look at Jeremy Bates and some pressure in his face and yet he is navigating the rush but yet not staring at the rush and that's a great sign a lot of young quarterback stare at the rush you miss a lot of throw Sam's been able to make some key throws under pressure third and 11 and this one sails over the head of Jermaine Kearse and Sam darn 'old no good tonight so far 7 for 16 and the only wide receiver with a catch is Quincy in noon walks I think that throw there the coverage was really good and even if they had have completed it it was not going to be enough for a first down and I think Sam just did not like the relationship between the receiver and the defensive back and and wisely just threw it away [Applause] that works Department [Applause] from inside the ten flag for that block you saw just as Landry made the catch 54 yard punt 14 yards on the return let's see who it was against there it is out on the edge Denzel rice [Applause] illegal block in the back receiving team number 37 after this is for the goal first time so now we'll watch Baker Mayfield and what he can do is he's backed up how good his Patrick mahomes been ten touchdowns no interceptions the ten touchdowns a record first two games second year for crafted by John 4c who is now the general manager here in Cleveland I don't know what all happened in Kansas City and why John Boise is no longer there but he did a great job building that that team and Patrick mahomes was an outstanding pick carry on first down you saw that last note Patrick mahomes did a sit-down with Peter Schrager you see that on Sunday gain of 8 for Carlos hi traitors everywhere as a good first down run there's a look at John Dorsey and the owner Jim Haslam and John Dorsey you know it's early we all understand that but he's done a remarkable job and a lot of draft picks to work with but I used a remarkable job in his first season building his Cleveland team second to first [Applause] over the offseason five players were added to this grounds roster who found their way into the postseason a year ago - Pro Bowlers Jarvis Landry and the quarterback that started this game Taylor but it all really resides with number six you can't miss on the number one overall pick they have to hope Baker Mayfield what they thought came and he completes to the Tynan to joke ooh a nice quick throw out to the 35 good 419 I think it surprised a lot of people Joe when the Cleveland Browns took Baker Mayfield the safe pick with Sam darn old with all the history of quarterbacks they missed on you'd think they would go with the safe pick I've said it before Jimmie Johnson said you can take the same pick and be good or you can take a chance and be great and there's no question that John Dorsey making the selection with Baker Mayfield with the idea that that point is going to get this organization to change to be great hesitation in the backfield and no gang well the draught history here recently for the grounds is not good this is hard to believe eleven players drafted in the first round between 2009 and 2016 zero on the roster and John Dorsey whether it was his time in Kansas City really close teeth and the Green Bay Packers in their front office [Applause] or here with the Cleveland Browns he will draft some players that are on the do not draft list of other teams worth the time we feel Kansas City and they hope it works with Antonio Callaway here with the Browns as Rashard Higgins makes the catch being a 5 well there's definitely a different energy with this offense with Baker Mayfield at the helm you know the balls coming out quicker guys seem to be getting to the line faster than they were you know the the playbook doesn't change that much but you know Mayfield's a four eight guy he's elusive but they're not going to do some of the same things that you do with a guy like Tyra tailored his ability to scramble they're down in five little pump fake here's Bayfield scrambling is caught for a first down bike Duke Johnson his first catch of the game flag in the secondary it's against the Jets the playlist and gain of nine well this is the stuff that Baker Mayfield can do he's walking to his left where the middle he came in is what he was looking in the 43 this cool this decline there was dealt to the play at the first down it's not there he's able to get out and and this is what was impressive like I said you time him in the forty and you test him on a lot of things you're not coming away real impress but he's got a Tony Romo like quality that he's able to just extend plays make people miss in the pocket and find guys open down the field handoff to Johnson line walk the knees back to the line of scrimmage maybe a gain of one and now a fight breaks out in the secondary surprise there's no flag there you can see Perry Nickerson was involved with Jarvis Landry and that's what started it like you said there's no flag [Music] play clock is running on second down and nine well disappointing losses for both these teams a short week which was probably good that they can just get back out onto the field and try to get that bad taste out of their mouth but like we've said week three Cleveland looked at this game said hey this is a winnable game for us the Jets looked at this game said this is a winnable game for us and the further their season in a positive way a lot of pressure right here tonight out to his right looking for somebody to come back and the passes off the hands of Orson Charles we've seen that a couple of times Mayfield able to avoid the rush out to his right through a bullet but it was not corralled by Charles he's trying to get Orson Charles to come back this one got away from him a little bit it's still one that Charles should be able to catch it you're rolling to your right it is a right-hander when you throw it with the rotation of the ball the ball then sails out to the right so you got to lead them a little bit more inside to keep it in play but still one that very easily could have been caught I tell you that could have been easily called on Frankie Lou Lou line back the Lohan on Mayfield at the end of that play bass is caught Callaway nice tackle good work by JJ Wilcox and with that strong tackle as the crowd is begging Hugh Jackson to go for it stop short of the first down and a punt coming from the Browns yeah I like this call by Hugh Jackson as much as you'd like to go for duck Peterson would be going for it here but the Browns aren't the Eagles but a good job by Baker Mayfield hanging in there they brought pressure he got that he's able to make one guy miss he was off and running Colquitt drives it out of bounds and we'll see where they market the answer is [Applause] 12:33 yard punt Jets leading by 11 with the football seven and a half left third quarter welcome back to Thursday Night Football presented by Bud Light last time the Browns padded I talked about that hit by Frankie move throughout on the edge Baker made field during the break Mike Pereira reminding that you lose that low hit protection went out of the pocket and so rightly no call yep this one is an easy call on a false start against the Jets false start offense number 77 $5 the first time one more Seahawk James Carpenter and we'll see the Seahawks as Troy and alluded to earlier in the game this weekend at home against the Dallas Cowboys and Russell Wilson's already been sacked 12 times he faced von Miller in Denver a Leo Mac in Chicago and now he's got that terrific front for the Dallas Cowboys coming yeah they lead the league in sacks so it doesn't not get any easier for Russell Wilson to company from the seven handout to power breaks through some tackles and he's out to the 14 a gain of seven Erin Andrews pretty special relationship between Sam darn old and his backup Josh McCown yeah it's a real brotherly relationship how are you man 18-year gap between the two of them Josh telling me today guy keeps me really young updates me on Instagram filters you know the boomerang great story said out of the building this guy's 21 I'm helping him out with dry cleaning in the building it's like he's been in the week for 10 years County we had a pretty good year last year was the team MVP is rated on by the players making 10 million dollars to be the quarterback coach and backup quarterback yeah he had a he had a great year 13 starts tied a career-high for the snap last year ball star offense number 83 half the distance to the goal still second down when I thought was great Joe was Teddy Bridgewater was here in camp as well and and they said that Josh McCown you know in his 16th year didn't feel like he really needed the reps didn't need the work to get ready to play said hey I'll be ready by week one you know let the young kids let let's say I'm Donna let Teddy Bridgewater who hadn't played much in recent years let them get to work and really a nude selfish thing especially for a guy who had been the starter last year and was willing to concede the position through the first round pick turned Bridgewater into a third-round pick the Saints here's a nice throw in first down but the ball is out Anderson made the catch in Denzel war takes it inside the 10 just took it right out of his arms that kid can play and another takeaway by this Cleveland defense his defense came into the game leading the NFL with a takeaways and they come away with another one right here they've been awfully good and forcing fumbles that's their sixth forced fumble on the season and they've recovered all six so they're very opportunistic they go at it the ball has bounced in their favor when they have gotten it on the ground I was wondering if Gregg Williams was going to bring pressure with Darnell backed up he did not but they're able to take advantage of Robbie Anderson put the ball on the ground and we'll see now whether or not Cleveland they've had a hard time scoring points off of these takeaways by their defense they need to get a touchdown here Anderson injured on that play with a towel up to his face awesome blood Denzel Ward was the pick right after Sam Darnell and took it right out of the audience of Anderson first and goal now with the ball at the eight they hand it to hide glossy yarn Avery Williamson who's had a very good game got through to make the play his just defense are flying off the ball you got Gordon Jenkins he's in the backfield and a lot of times when you make that first guy miss then there's nobody there to recover for him but they had Horace Claiborne was there and very physical attacking this offensive line and getting into the backfield for much of this game that's his eighth tackle Williamson in this game to go along with a couple sacks but gave him one and a half two tackles for loss Jamie's had Mayfield and treble and throws it away so now third down and [Applause] this really good coverage downfield there with the protection the protection was good but the Jets secondary just plastered to their guys and didn't give me anywhere to go with the football sometimes you need to pick a quarterback first overall it works out the Jets know it with back in 65 Bradshaw with the Steelers in 70 you with the Dallas Cowboys in 89 Elway with the Broncos and that great draft of 83 Mayfield is the guy [Applause] former Heisman Trophy winner endzone nearly picked duck Middleton had a shot at it they sailed off his shoulder pad and back of the end zone yeah the Baker Mayfield just never saw Doug Middleton and the reason is there was a crosser that's coming across the field and I and I think it just shielded the defender and he thought he had middle of the field wide open and Middleton could have snuffed out that drive right there one-for-one is great Joseph first week with the Browns 27-yard tribe is man barely good inside the left upright do Jackson I'm taken yeah so will these fans a couple of white-knuckle errs from Greg Joseph but it's an eight-point game in Cleveland will have to throw in for 334 yards last week at home against Miami not so good so far for Sam dartle Baker Mayfield took over late second quarter actually has more through the air than Darnell's first pick taken on the third pick in this past draft and it's an eight-point game here in Cleveland under five and a half to go third quarter on Thursday Night Football Roberts who take it out why his decision or no why is decision on the play and that will likely cost the jetsam yards Jake gains on the stop after a 36 yard return during the return Cody return team number 89 10 yard penalty first now well tonight after the postgame show von miller leads the league in saxon he'll join NFL total access to talk about the broncos to no start and i felt total access tonight after the post game only on NFL Network boy how would you assess your third start in dear NFL career we know the story as a hadn't have known but you guys were kind enough to remind me with a graphic last night and and like I said I hope it was the worst game of my career because if it wasn't then can't imagine he works numbers of these drops it off the tide and Tomlinson makes the catch look like it got deflected into his arms in a nice play as ogen Joby makes the stop after 14 yards and here where you're no third career start and a quarterback rating of well the good news is those up also my grade point average in high school so I'm gonna I'll take a game of 4.0 [Applause] he's made sure that we got some some highlights it's something good that we sprinkle that we haven't seen with your one finger up run around his crow l did wait am I wrong and saying that your third start didn't you go up to the line and actually put your hands under the guards a Crawford curve yeah and rear-end center and in the hurry up offense no huddle and I lost track of work hokhmah on the line I put my hands under the left guard which you know could you only imagine you'd only imagine how that baby spooked him he called everybody daddy you know everybody's daddy this day that and all he said is he kind of looked back as it it ain't me daddy I felt different I will tell you that I said enough Sagat in seven [Applause] darn old this one is tipped away with a noon wah the target and a third down coming up again I tell you an interesting thing about Sam to Arnold and visiting with Jeremy Bates the offensive coordinator he said when he comes in for the meetings right from the beginning he doesn't write notes he does not take notes in the meetings and I've never heard that and Jeremy Bates was getting really frustrated he's getting angry about it saying this guy this guy's our number one pick and he's not writing notes and but they go out on the practice field never forgets anything it's the way that he's always been very smart his work ethic is incredible and it's just pretty impressive that the guy can just absorb it by hearing it and doesn't have to take notes to remember blitz coming third down and seven Darnell to his right broken up Kerry made the previous play and now Jannard Avery who Greg Williams says is their second best pass rusher on the defense in a rookie from Memphis is in coverage really good player they thought initially that they would use him just as a pass rusher and a pass rush specialist here in his rookie season but he's played a lot more snaps than they thought and they've used him and dropping him in coverage and I think he's a hankins already a really good player for a young guy another one of those young draft picks by John Dorsey that has shown up angry from inside the 20 but gifs defense right back out on the field frustrating night tonight Ford Arnold but he and the Jets lead by it Thursday night football is brought to you by the all-new Lexus ES a product of mastery experience amazing at your Lexus dealer [Music] there were 174 touchdowns league wide through the first two games the most ever for the first two weeks in the history of the league what a catch by Rashard Higgins and a gain of nine and a spark when number six came in for the injured Tyrod Taylor we've seen a few balls get away from from Baker Mayfield which is a little unusual a lot of people don't know this guy was a 70% completion bastard his last two seasons at Oklahoma is extremely accurate has a really strong arming box [Music] he's lucky to pull the bulk back about a yard after that catch by Higgins on the far sideline then Hyde gets half a yard so third and 2 now 3rd and 2 has not been a good down for them here tonight third down but see what they can do they hurry it up late substitution for the Jets on defense [Applause] [Music] [Applause] pass is caught by the land he's got a first down for the moment inside the 45 I like what Baker Mayfield wanted to doing the only defense number 21 is killing at the time there was no key to play first time Mayfield has one on one out here and that's where the call came on board Claiborne and so that's a mismatch you've got a guy who can run for four and then he's up against Morris Claiborne and he just couldn't get off the press coverage they get the penalty because he's holding them but I liked in Mayfield sees it he wants to take a shot on third and short but still gets off of it for the completion even though the penalty got it anyway handoff to hide with a big hole to run through on the right side and a first down for the Browns as they trail by eight the Jets defense has been great not good great tonight holding up after the turnover getting a field goal attempt by Cleveland into that first for the Browns to operate his Callaway is out of bounds at the 30 forced out by Johnson well Callaway as we know you know when they when they trade former first rounder Cora Coleman in camp and then this past week they trade Josh Gordon to the New England Patriots it becomes Antonio Callaway show opposite of Jarvis Landry this guy it was the first round talent he had some off-the-field issues that dropped him to the fourth but he has unique abilities and if they can get that out of him and kind of harness some of that energy that he has he could turn into a really good pick in the foreground caught by landry to the one what a catch this is unbelievable first of all the throw is the only place it can be but that is not an easy catch especially when you've got Doug Middleton who's trying to come over and knock it down that's a great job those are the balls that Jarvis Landry you almost expect them to make him every time because it does it so frequently first and goal from the one time trying to take it then he does touchdown Browns after the 29-yard er - Jarvis Landry [Applause] this is third of the year we'll see what the Browns want to do by two Mayfield stays out there this was this was 230 pounds of all Carlos eyes there's three jets defenders that hit him before the line and he just plows his way through that is a great finish to the run and this is the the right call here by by Hugh Jackson sometimes you know you get into it you say well wait till the fourth but right now winding down the third I think this is the right time to go at the bottom of the screen this to tie it may feel [Music] out and into the arms one of the Jets that's etat you there two flags on the play touchdown set up by the longest play of the night by either side the 29 yarder to Jarvis Landry and a great throw and catch two fouls on the play one by EC holding defense number 21 holding offense these files outfit redo the track till they get another crack at it there's the hold against Desmond Harrison and here's Claybourne that claybournes he got called a couple times on this on this possession [Applause] he knows the kind of quickness that Callaway has we'll see what see what Todd Haley in this offense wants to do here on this second try the joke who comes in tight in this formation tuck push her off the edge little trick to Baker Mayfield a tie the game from Jarvis Landry is that that Cleveland play was really calm out has tied this game as Mayfield is therefore the catch in the left-handed throw by Landry 1414 instant light from Baker Mayfield [Applause] direct snap to Duke Johnson click to Landry who flipped it to mate filled in and zone the difference between that one of course and Billy Philly was great Burton threw that for the Eagles he's right-handed so that went the other direction but here with Jarvis Landry as a left-hander then you want him going to his left but opposite directions same result little different circumstances but we've got ourselves a tie ballgame Billy playing the Super Bowl right before the half big time this one with under a minute to go third quarter tell you though which might feel like the Super Bowl for these Browns tonight 635 days since their last they're seeing the number one overall pick Baker Mayfield [Applause] celsa Browns tie this game we said hey this crowd was looking to have a party tonight and it got awfully quiet once shortly after anyway opening kickoff but they're they're alive and well and letting themselves be heard now [Applause] take a nade how about the throw and catch Mayfield and Landry for 29 yards to set up the touchdown big time big time throw and it probably got a little more inside than then what Mayfield wanted but Middleton he's got his hand in and yet strong he's right there by Jarvis Landry I mean if he falls in his vicinity is good chance he's coming down with it and then of course the throw and [Applause] it's really good there's a lot of good stuff that happened on that drive including at least from Cleveland's perspective the offsetting penalties on the first two-point try that gave them another opportunity in Mayfield was they're on the receiving end so tie game under a minute to go third quarter the power running right and a nice start gain of nine [Applause] last five possessions for the Jets have been thoroughly impressed with their defense offense cannot get any traction here against Greg Williams and his Browns defense yeah that was the case last week and he just struggled to kind of get things going against the Dolphins and you know of course they got those takeaways against Detroit game got away from the Lions pretty quickly but the the yards have been really hard to come by for this Jets offense this is a tie game through three Thursday Night Football we'll return after this welcome back to Thursday Night Football presented by Bud Light fourth quarter began second down and one for the Jets in a tie game led 14 to nothing now 1414 on second down hand the 45-yard line brought down by damarious Randall and a big carry of 21 yards for number 29 this is that song blocking scheme that they run for the Jets and they use stretch it and then once you see the crease you take it in the wall pal he's got the speed and the ability once he sees the crease BAM he's in there and it's a nice run for blow POW Jets are now over around this time Pawel swallowed up at the line of scrimmage that 21 yarder the longest play of the game for the Jets as Schobert made that last tackle second intent [Applause] you know you see Paulo Powell he comes off the field and then they go with Isaiah Crowell and it's a it's a nice tandem that they have and as I said earlier they've got so much confidence in both of these guys there's no situation that one guys specific for and they just rotate him through second and ten dartle nowhere to go with it just able to get it to the sideline and incomplete even though it was hauled in by Jordan legged with darn 'old he's done that a couple of times in this game you think he's throwing it away the ends up finding somebody on the sideline as he scrambling for his life and some of that he's got to be real careful of because you know when you start traversing the field like this as a quarterback you're asking for a lot of thanks to happen I know that he's an improviser and that's what he was able to do and you know but then there's a tendency to get a little reckless with the ball as well and in that ball that was not not a real well it by his role that he tried to fit in there just got it away on third down and ten darn old sideline pass is caught by curse exactly what the Jets needed in one of the best throws of the night her Sam Darnell to gain 214 no it was great is he just knew right where he's going with the football he saw the coverage he knew he had one-on-one on the outside corner soft and he comes right out and bangs it and picks up the first down it's a it's excellent it's a perfectly thrown ball to Jermaine Kearse and set it down first catch of the game for curse [Applause] yeah inside field goal range the first down at the 31 toss to crow l running left ran into three Cleveland Browns including Schubert corner Terrence Mitchell was out there as well again a four well it's a nice drive right now for the Jets you've got the Browns who go down the field and they they tie the game up and score 14 unanswered and now the Jets they are mounting a drive of their own to come away with some points it's a good job by them just kind of answering it and stacked some plays together as we talked about its benefit of a struggle they had the one girl on the first half for a score and other than that they really haven't had much kostik Rowell left side nowhere to go lost yardage first guy there was Jannard a brie and a loss of one now what are we looking at it's third down I think that I haven't seen as much from Gregg Williams as I expected you know just some of the all out let's go after this guy but right here and with the ball at the 28 yard line I can see where Gregg Williams wants to dial something up create a negative play and try to knock him out of field goal range third down and seven darnelle Watkyn has a big first down Derek kindred on the stop but a well-designed play out on the edge with blocking in front for 11 yards well we've seen it over and over you you got curse who's out there and the guy who then is on a noon walk is TJ Carey and he gets caught up on the outside which creates this running lane on the inside and we've seen it now throughout this game three or four times the quick pass that's gone for good yardage in this time of first down what a good block by Spencer long out there to help with the 11 yard catch and run here's back to the line of scrimmage this guy there was open Jovie by the way that for the wide receiver in noon wha three first down catches on third down so when Darnell needs a play it looks for 81 yeah he really likes him and he knew why he didn't get play last year he has a neck surgery he came up with 2016 season doing a lot of really good things they missed him but you see the way he runs with the football it's don't wonder why they want to get the ball in his hands he mentioned Spencer long good pickup he's had some really nice blocks on a number of occasions getting out in space to spring he knew one tenth play of this Drive and it's a negative play as Chris Smith makes the stop on Powell a loss of two he's just able to win at the line of scrimmage he was able to to work through Bryan winters the right guard and Smith this PISA he's one of those guys that wasn't on the team last year either very versatile they're able to play him a lot of different positions you know right now great Williams is said let's just keep him short of the first down and forced them to try to come away with just three third down in 12 passes over the middle and caught but short of a first down by Jermaine Kearse it's fourth down and the field-goal unit comes on for the Jets trying to regain believe it's a great job by Derek kindred he's the he's the third safety for them and he's playing deep and when the ball comes out he has to hit it get going and make a play and not let curse get to the chains and he makes a good tackle there in the open field 28 yard try here [Applause] shorter than an extra point for Jason Myers Jetts back on top [Applause] good game under nine to go here in Cleveland Darnell solid drive gets points on the board and the Jets up by three Thursday Night Football is brought to you by Pepsi the official soft drink of the NFL so I'm at the hotel today and I come off the elevator on the seventh floor and I run smack into Ringo Starr kind of like under the Erving to just walk right into one of the Beatles yeah did not get the sense he was here for the Browns game yeah well you never know maybe he's performing at the celebration if they win this geeky Jets on top by three nine to go and Callaway taking me take a look at our next gen stats in the biggest play of the night really for either side with regarding yardage definitely for Cleveland was this catch by Jarvis Landry of twenty nine yards to set up first and goal at the 1 talking about a guy who with Miami had 400 catches over his first four years last season with the dolphins seven targets of 20 or more air yards first two games for that is his first of tonight's against the Jets last year he had 112 receptions which led the league but he was 17 in total yards and the average less than nine yards of catch last year so they've never got it down the field [Applause] and for good throw but no catch by Antonio Callaway Luke Callaway is getting a chance to play fourth round pick slit down draft boards because of problems in college failed drug tests and lost it but he's playing because the grounds finally had enough of Josh Gordon yeah I tell you Joe that route was a good route he gave his quarterback is placed to throw a football he just didn't finish it didn't make the catch there putting play for and on I can't run with with Callaway 410 they're going to give him a first down here's the drop that so many times these receivers they run a go round and they squeeze the sideline they give the quarterback know where to put the ball because you gotta lay it to the outside he did a nice job he didn't get jammed to got off the line gave Mayfield a place to go with the football it's just a shame because that was a perfectly thrown ball Mayfield 11 of 16 141 yards two drops first Landry gets four so talking about Josh Gorton who gets traded to the Patriots for a fifth round pick it was an all-pro in 2013 had over 1600 receiving yards there he is in number 10 or 12 year 12th taken in New England by the way because of all the suspensions he had played in only 11 games the last 40-plus years showed up late on Saturday the Browns have had enough told him that they would be moving on on Monday and that's what they did when they traded him to the Patriots I couldn't agree with it more we were here doing a preseason game we know the history with Josh Gordon we know how patient this organization has been with him he did not show up for training camp they were very patient with that and John Dorsey I think and knew Jackson did all that they could to support that young man and at some point it's not fair to the other players on this team and I know he's a talented guy and I get all that but at some point you got a hold people accountable and treat him like adults just say look we're not gonna put up with it any longer and they didn't I think it was a good move and I think it probably galvanized this locker room third and five Pass caught chunks in a spin move on the sideline ball is out recovered by the Browns Higgins he stayed inbounds and with all those moves along the sideline he was knocked out of his arm but Higgins was there to recover at the 45 as a nice conversion on third down and five and here's the end of it that ball is out yeah it was out and Higgins does a good job of Avery Williamson having a good game he's the one who rips it out but Duke Johnson they split him out shows us what he's capable of doing as a receiver may feel [Applause] Higgens to the 25 and now they're going to mark him back at the 26 well Baker Mayfield see safety in the middle of the field and he's got a free release seam route right up the hash and that's where you go with the ball he see in the field exceptionally well he knows what the defense is presenting to him and he's getting the ball the right beat [Applause] that'll go down as the third drop you see Baker here he sees the safety now he's gonna get a free release right here up the seam and once he sees that movement that rotation okay who's my guy running the scene where I could fit a ball in there comes right back off of that it's funny because you see Jarvis Landry make the ridiculous catches like you see there and just a routine ball like that you wonder how that even happens but he let it get in on his chest and bounced off the shoulder bench he's got some simp Mayfield it's a different looking football coming out of his hand then we saw or earlier in the game with Tyrod Taylor that Punk got in on Landry I think faster than he thought that's why it ended up drilling him in the shoulder pack and this is gonna sound a little strange with some quarterbacks the way in which they throw it there's there's there's more rotation on the ball than when some other quarterbacks throw it warren moon was like that he threw a tight you know highly rotated ball when it came out in a tight spiral and Baker watching him I mean that thing's got some revolutions on it and it's a little different I agree with that near the marker for the first time good throat good catch Browns in business inside the 16 it's a really nice job of [Applause] they brought the Blitz off the edge they brought Tremaine Johnson off the edge which is what you want to do make sure this kid knows where the blitzes are coming from and Baker picks it up so Truman Johnson comes off he's got a guy wide open a lot of young quarterbacks I can assure you would not have seen that and would have got hit in the back of the head [Applause] for the touchdown but it's against Cleveland to erase the celebration [Applause] she legal block in the back offense number 80 10-yard penalty replay first down gives Landry walking for high [Applause] there it is right in the middle of the screen as he shoved Barry Nickerson to the ground [Applause] Mike Pereira says good call and moves it back to the 19 Hey this is the matchup here there they've been taken advantage of a little bit with Antonio Callaway over the middle pass is caught pig get Landry survived the hit from Middleton thirty short that's a great throw by Baker Mayfield there was a small window the underneath coverage did not allow for much space you see the linebacker who just was unable to get his hands on an Avery Williams son he's right there and then and he fit that into a tight spot that's awfully good that shows off some of that accuracy I was talking about that he displayed at the University of Oklahoma second down and one [Applause] good play Avery Williamson what a night he's had and that strong tackle kept Carlos Hyde out of the end zone yeah Avery Williamson has really played well and lave was also down there making a play and [Applause] this with a little play action under three to go second and goal [Applause] landing on the stalks back to the line of scrimmage it's dirt and goal [Applause] Steve McClendon the big man in the and was in there to stuff that play they executed it very well everyone stayed true to their assignments didn't give any kind of laying off the shovel you have to snap it before the two-minute warning extra offensive lineman Austin Corbett comes in down by 3/3 and goal this would be a great stand by his Jets defense able to hold here [Applause] these Joel Antonio the left guard he pulls he kind of leaves the way and then Carlos Hyde celebrating his 28th birthday today with his second touchdown [Applause] the leave is for the number one overall pick Heisman Trophy winner Baker Mayfield as this crowd in a frenzy and the Browns up for [Music] [Applause] well the new sheriff in town here in Cleveland Baker Mayfield former walk-on then Heisman Trophy winner and now here on Thursday September 20th with an injury to the starter Tyra Taylor time it looked like was running out on Taylor anyway Mayfield took over and he's got the Browns who went off as a three point favorite leading by four and now the Jets will try to answer as they've got to get it down into the end zone three timeouts just over two to go bigger Mayfield's had a heck of a second half if it worked he's 17 of 23 200 yards and he's at 3 or 4 drop Pasi when there's welcome empty back there with Darnell that was Tipton nearly picked off two hands and then Terrence Mitchell had a shot at it the noon walk what is the target not yet two minutes left second down for the Jets down four [Music] Thursday night football is brought to you by Microsoft Surface two minutes left in Cleveland Ohio as they hope to celebrate all over Northeast Ohio Baker Mayfield his drives tonight if you take the kneel down before half out of it said points on all the one-possession rounds leading pass caught by Robbie Anderson who turned the ball over earlier in this second half had a fumble last week against the Dolphins that one good for five third down and five Tyrod Taylor was injured Baker Mayfield took over overall pick as his team up number three overall pick Donald trying to ruin the storyline for Baker Mayfield and a bronze flag before the snap both star often the new $72 Duty scale third down against Brandon shell leave third down intent darn old uses his legs fourth down and now I look over to the sideline and a decision three timeouts left a minute 48 fourth down and 10 and Arnold stays out there I'm surprised by this Jill I ever think with three timeouts are backed up as they would punt and then you know they've got time they would get the ball back if they're able to make a stop with over a minute left in the game [Applause] this to have any hope here in week 3 has one attached Jermaine Kearse saves the Jets on fourth and 10 good for 12 plus the great catch by Jermaine Kearse I mean you see he had fingertips on it still moving and securing it not reviewed it would have to be called for from a booth inside of two minutes Joe Schubert Browns take over 135 days since the Browns have celebrated a win there are a minute 21 yeah coming up on the US Army postgame show reaction to Baker Mayfield's first game I'd say it's gone well and the star of the game on the set I'd say that would be Mayfield see here's a handoff to hide and a timeout taken by the Jets they have to left back to the interception there's Joe Burt there but Spencer long gets jammed back into Sam darkness face d'arnot when he's about to pull the trigger on curse he he can't because Spencer long is in his lap and he tries to then slide and by that time to the middle late Joubert he missed an opportunity earlier in his ballgame for interception comes up big and secures that one and you see the and that says it all there great sports fans here in Cleveland they lost their franchise went to Baltimore they got the team back but they've got to get a first down here and in this game the second version of the Browns the reboot started at night good play is made again it's Avery Williamson now one timeout left for the Jets and it'll be third down for Cleveland Sunday at 9 Kurt Warner goes one-on-one with Russell Wilson plus the guys preview Carson Wentz's returned to the field in a fill game day morning Sunday had 9 live on NFL Network Baker Mayfield Troy came into this game with a minute 42 left in the first half at that point the Browns trailed 14 to nothing Mayfield has had only one drive if you don't count the kneel down before the half where they didn't come away with points field goal and back-to-back touchdowns the last three times they've had it they lead by four [Applause] and I think he has great numbers but I think a lot of times you can't even look at the numbers I think the kids just a winner they're dead 6 is going to be about a yard short of a first down Jamal Adams made the stop and the Jets will call a timeout and so now you have a fourth down for Cleveland you have a kicker that you don't know and Greg Joseph who has been anything but automatic albeit two for two and we'll see what Hugh Jackson wants to do Mayfield's numbers in under 32 minutes 17 for 23 201 yards no touchdowns our picks three drops so the numbers could be even better and they signed the new kicker but right now they're going to bring their punter on and they're gonna pass on what would be a 53 hour try yeah I think you know that you miss that and then you're setting the Jets up with a lot of time and great field position no question this is the the right call not knowing that ticker which checks up inside the 10 in well playing good pump but Britton Colquitt and Derek kindred downfield as they will mark it at the 6 30 yard punt no return will Colquitt did his job an outstanding punch Sam Darnell gets one more crack at it with no timeouts we talked to Greg Williams leading into this game and talked to him about how well the defense had played all the takeaways coming in with eight only ten points off those eight takeaways I said is there any division between offense and defense with this team and he said I pulled our guys until you shut somebody out I don't want to hear a word now that that may feel putting up points and it's the defense on the field trying to end it well this is the guy who can wreak havoc miles GERD they better have an answer to block it him the end zone pass is caught big chunky yards to Pryor Cleveland Brown is out to the 31 a 25 yard completion with now 40 seconds left in the game that's a big chunk that's what they needed they're gonna need another one as well get funneled to the middle [Applause] darn old trick duck and we'll see what they call the ball came out yeah was it the forward pass but we'll see if they're gonna mark him down they're going to throw ground the quarterback without side of the pot he was recognized the pocket but he's got the ball in his hand with his knee on the ground and they look at that [Applause] so this right now is being ruled as an incomplete pass and we expect that to change [Applause] the review called for from upstairs meanwhile if you're a Browns fan you're thinking they've come up with some creative ways to lose games over this strip 635 days but it just has a different feel here tonight the Baker Mayfield and this defense Mike did you see what I saw yeah and the significance here not a lot in yardage but it is so since they ruled it as an incomplete pass now you're gonna take it back to the knee being down on the clock is going to restart so that's really the significance of this review so to follow up with what you said it does certainly have a different feel but I think it's had a different feel for much of the offseason you know when John Dorsey came in and with all those picks that they had and the players that were in this draft two quarterbacks and the opportunities that they had in front of them of course hard knocks didn't hurt anything either people got a chance to really get exposed and get to know a lot of these players but yeah there's a real appraisin the quarterback goes down by contact at the 29 rock operator believe who said the Gamecock to 29 seconds John Doerr sees fingerprints are all over this game with Baker Mayfield the trade for Jarvis Landry [Applause] Mike Pereira they're going to take time off the clock here because they overturned what was initially called an incomplete pass because they ruled it a stop clock then they reversed it to a running back and when you do that inside the two minutes you run ten seconds off the clock which is what they did and the clock starts on your own Boger signal like it did now on second down and 12 Darnell airs it out downfield pass picked by Mitchell rounds are going to win open the color [Applause] what a moment for number six to go out there take a knee and that'll end the night it's reviewed because it's a turnover and the clear pick is made but Terrence Mitchell another pickup by John Dorsey the unrestricted free agent from the Chiefs as they revamp this secondary make field in the Browns get the win over the Jets [Applause] the nine Heisman winning quarterback to go number one overall in the following graph Baker may feel a surprise pick by many [Applause] the Browns knew they had their man they saw him wing it and when they saw how those around him at the program at OU you responded to him he's a leader he's got swagger you can sing it and it all showed here tonight what's your did and he'll get a chance this weekend because it's a Thursday night they'll be off he'll get to soak it in as will Craig Williams in this entire organization it has been a long time and I've got to believe that after tonight the Baker Mayfield era has begun and he'll be making his first NFL start in 10 days and Oakland [Applause] what a night here in Cleveland Ohio as they celebrate Baker Mayfield will be on the set tonight on our postgame show thanks for watching Thursday Night Football presented by Bud Light

I was just talking about this game in another post. I’ve been a Browns fan since I was old enough to understand football (Derek Anderson/Brady Quinn days) but this game was the first game I’ve ever been to. I wasn’t even planning on going till the day before when one of my friends offered up an extra ticket to anyone who could drive him since his brother couldn’t go. I jumped on it and needless to say it was the best impulse decision I ever made. Didn’t get any sleep that night but the game was totally worth the sleep deprevation at school the next day lol.

Even though it didn't count Bitonio picking up the fumble and trucking for 9 yards is so boss

This game was a butterfly effect for me. A friend of mine went to the stadium that day because he's a big Lebron lover and he had traveled to Cleveland from Barcelona to watch some Cavaliers games. He also liked the NFL so he bought a ticket for this game, kinda randomly. Baker's debut, the stadium, the energy of that game...He fell in love and became a Brown, bought a Chubb jersey that same day. We started speaking a lot about the NFL and I became interested and started following the league, and he was such a Browns lover because of that game, so enthusiastic about it that it was contagious. And years later here I am sharing this piece in the Browns subreddit haha.

Best game after the game against the Steelers in the playoffs (kinda)

[u/SnaxMcGhee]

I'll never forget it.

It was the turning point for the franchise. It took a couple of years to fully put things in order but that was to be expected after going 1-31 the previous two seasons.

62:50 for the moment when Baker comes in

I was in CBUS at the time and worked Wednesday night and Friday afternoon but made the drive up to go to the game with my Dad.

We both just had a feeling. Turns out it's probably the best game we've ever been to. Now to think just a few weeks ago we watched Baker win us a Playoff game against the Steelers.

I was at a local place watching the game and was getting ready to leave at halftime to go home. My current other half and I had just started dating and she was coming to pick me up.

Tyrod got knocked out and you could feel that something was different all the way down in Atlanta. The command and balls of that pre-half time drive was something we hadn't seen in Cleveland for a while.

I called her up and asked her to come in and ended up watching the whole game while silently letting the excitement build inside of me - along with the beers.
