Game 1: Browns Loss to the Saints, 14-19

Well, the game was close at the end, but The Browns just couldn't pull out a W this week.
I am glad to see that we did look much better in the 2nd half of the game - the 1st half was awful! We couldn't get the ball moving down field at all except for punting - and I can't believe we pitched 3 times in a row on 3rd and short!

Positives of the game:
- Red zone defense. Held the Saints to 3 FGs in the 1st half
- Charlie Frye's ability to scramble and be an offensive option on the ground
- Kellen Winslow shows signs of some real potential
- Improved secondary coverage - Joe Horn was held to only 2 receptions

Negatives of the game:
- Where's the QB pressure? No sacks for the game
- Receivers, hold onto the ball!
- Poor run defense
- And seriously, did we have to make Reggie Bush look that good on his debut game?

Add to the negatives -- Droughns only had 27 yards rushing.

Regardless, Go Buckeyes!
