PRESEASON GAME #2 Stuck

Cleveland improved it's preseason record to 2-0 with a 17-15 win over the St. Louis Rams at home. Once again, the first-stringers for Cleveland carried the game for the Browns, scoring all of their 17 points in the first half. The Rams had a decent showing today, but were unable to come from behind and get the W.

For Cleveland, Colt McCoy got the start again, with Jake Delhomme playing most of the 2nd quarter. The question this preseason for Cleveland is who will start at quarterback. While Seneca Wallace has been playing with the second squad both games, it appears he is still 3rd on the depth chart. Against the Rams, he threw 2 interceptions, with the second one taking points off the board for Cleveland. The second squad continues to struggle, coughing up three turnovers and scoring no points.

Coach Eric Mangini had this to say about the quarterback situation: "All of our guys have looked sharp in practice. When it comes to who's starting week one - that's still up in the air. [We] like what each guys brings to the table, but it's still too early to tell."

For St. Louis, Sam Bradford had a good first half, completing 10 of 14 passes and a 90.2 QB rating. Stephen Jackson ran for 79 yards on 18 carries. Backup quarterback A.J. Feeley almost put the Rams ahead late in the game, but threw a costly interception to Ray Ventrone. James Laurinaitis was knocked out of the game with an injury, but will be able to play again next week.
