The Browns were sleepwalking for three quarters as they were trailing the Chargers 27-7 heading into the 4th quarter.  The Browns somehow made a game of it in the 4th quarter as they outscored the Chargers 16-3 in the final quarter before falling short.  Brady Quinn was sharp in this game as he completed 25 of 45 passes for 271 yards with 3 TD passes and 0 INTs.  He also carried the ball 2 times for 8 yards (4.0 ypc) but he lost a fumble deep in Chargers’ territory that really hurt the Browns in the first half.  Josh Cribbs led the Browns in rushing today with 38 yards on 4 carries (9.5 ypc).  Jerome Harrison was very busy in this game carrying the ball 10 times for 35 yards (3.5 ypc) and he also caught 7 passes for 62 yards (8.9 avg) with 2 TD grabs.  Chris Jennings pitched in with 28 yards rushing on 5 carries (5.6 ypc) in this game.  TE Evan Moore came off the practice squad last night and he led the way in the passing game for the Browns today with 6 grabs for 80 yards (13.3 avg).  Brian Robiskie (4 rec, 69 yards) and Mohamed Massaquoi (2 rec, 24 yards, TD) also did a solid job in the passing game for the Browns today.  The Browns finished up with 372 total yards (115 rushing, 257 passing) in this game.

S/CB Mike Adams led the way for the Browns on D in this game with 7 tackles including 1 tackle for a loss.  DE Robaire Smith and S/CB Hank Poteat each pitched in with 6 tackles apiece in this game.  The Chargers finished up with 477 total yards in this game (91 rushing, 386 passing).  The Browns are now 1-11 on the year but at least they showed some heart in this game.
