The Browns had Mike McMahon, Dave Ragone and Shaun King in for workouts this week. Could Charlie Frye be hurting from the pounding he’s been taking or are the Browns just not very confident in their back-up QBs. Only time will tell on this one.
CB Fred Baxter is not going to play again against the Raiders, he’s still having pectoral muscle problems. The good news is that starting WR Joe Jurevicius returned to practice on Friday and might play some on Sunday. Juervicius would give the Browns another weapon against the sorry Raiders defense.

These two teams really need a victory badly.
Look for the Browns to attempt to run the football on the Raiders. The Raiders defense is allowing 166.0 yards rushing per game. Reuben Droughns needs to get it going this year as he only has 59 yards rushing so far this season. QB Charlie Frye should be able to relax in the pocket as the Raiders only have 2 sacks this season. Look for Frye to attack short with Kellen Winslow (19 rec, 197 yards) and deep with Braylon Edwards (11 rec, 249 yards).
The Browns defense has been vulnerable to the run with teams averaging 134.0 yards rushing against them. RB Lamont Jordan (29 carries, 55 yards) needs to have a good game to slow the Browns pass rush. The Raiders have already allowed 15 sacks in 2 games this season. Look for the Browns to blitz Andrew Walter (19.0 QB Rating) and take their chances with WR Randy Moss (6 rec, 79 yards).
The Browns should win this game by at least 10 points because they aren’t quitters like the Raiders are.
Funny how quickly a shoulder can heal when the Browns are ready to face a Raiders defense that is allowing 166.0 yards rushing per game and 4.2 yards per carry. This is making me question how tough Droughns is. Did he just not want to play against the Ravens?
