Browns beat-up again on Christmas and lose 22-7 to Bucs

The Browns played one of their worst games of the season yesterday.  Derek Anderson took a bunch of steps backward yesterday before dislocating his throwing shoulder in the 4th quarter of this horrible loss.  Anderson really stunk up Cleveland Browns stadium on Sunday.  He completed only 10 of 27 passes for 123 yards and threw 4 interceptions!  Reuben Droughns was one of the few Browns that came to play as he carried the ball 19 times for 92 yards (4.8 ypc).  Joe Jurevicius was another guy that came to play yesterday as he caught 4 passes for 58 yards.  Braylon Edwards was getting soundly booed yesterday as he gave a very poor effort and only caught 2 passes for 7 yards.

The defense had a few bright spots yesterday.  Rookie LB Leon Williams was all over the field as he finished with 13 tackles and a sack.  Chaun Thompson (12 tackles) and Sean Jones (13 tackles) were both very active too.  Kamerion Wimbley and Daven Holly were the real playmakers in this game for the Browns.  Wimbley had 6 tackles and 2 sacks.  On one of the sacks, Wimbley caused a fumble that was picked up by Holly and returned 40 yards for a TD.  Holly also had an interception in this game.  The Bucs ran the ball 44 times against the Browns for 153 yards (3.5 ypc).  The Bucs also completed 16 of 26 passes for 202 net yards passing.

The Browns fell to 4-11 on the season with this loss.  This was another pitiful Christmas performance as the Browns have been outscored 63-7 in their last two games played on December 24th.
