This was one of the most exciting football games I have ever seen.  The Browns got super-human efforts from Jerome Harrison, Josh Cribbs and the offensive line today!  First off was Josh Cribbs who returned 2 kickoffs for TDs in this game (100, 103 yarders) to tie a NFL record.  He also broke the career record for TD kickoffs returns as he now has 8 in only his 5th year in the NFL.  But, Cribbs was upstaged by Jerome Harrison who carried the ball 34 times for 286 yards (8.4 ypc) with 3 TD runs and he also caught 2 passes for 12 yards (6.0 avg).  Harrison rushed for the third most yards ever in a NFL game and he snapped Jim Brown’s franchise record which has stood since 1961 (237 yards).  The Browns decided to keep the football on the ground in this game as Brady Quinn was having issues throwing the ball once again.  He completed 10 of 17 passes for 66 yards with 2 INTs today.  Quinn did pitch in with 39 yards rushing on 4 carries (9.8 ypc) in this game.  Chris Jennings gave Harrison a break once in a while as he carried the ball 7 times for 18 yards (2.6 ypc).  Chansi Stuckey led the way in the passing game with 5 grabs for 41 yards (8.2 avg).  The Browns finished up with 417 total yards in this game (351 rushing, 66 passing) as they held onto the ball for 34:25 today.

The defense was pretty awful in this game for the Browns today but in the end the offense and special teams covered for them.  CB Eric Wright (8 tackles) and LB David Bowens (7 tackles) led the way for the Browns’ D today.  OLB Matt Roth had another solid game for the Browns with 4 tackles, 1 tackle for a loss, 1 sack, 1 QB hit and a fumble recovery.  The Chiefs finished up with 491 total yards in this game (168 rushing, 323 passing).  The Browns are now 3-11 on the year as they now have a 2-game winning streak.
