The Cleveland Browns extended their preseason winning streak with a 31-28 win over the Detroit Lions. The first half was action-packed, including two interceptions returned for touchdowns, and a total of 45 points from both teams.

For Cleveland, Coach Mangini started Jake Delhomme at quarterback today. His first pass was good for 28 yards to Evan Moore. His next pass, however, landed in the hands of Kyle Vanden Bosch, who ran untouched to put the Lions up 7-0. His next drive yielded better results, when he connected with Josh Cribbs for a touchdown. Colt McCoy came in to relieve Delhomme, and posted good numbers. Eric Wright dazzled again on defense, returning a Matthew Stafford pass for his second pick 6 of the preseason. The Browns also saw improved play from Joe Haden, who's interception late in the fourth quarter sealed the game for Cleveland.

For Detroit, they had a monster game from Jahvid Best. He smoked the Cleveland defense for 165 yards, including 2 runs over 70 yards. Calvin Johnson Jr. was quiet in the first half, but played with the reserves in the second half in the slot, and managed over 100 yards for the day. Bobby Carpenter led the defense in tackles, and Vanden Bosch opened the scoring with his amazing interception return.

It was a high-scoring, physical contest. Evan Moore of the Browns tore his shoulder and will be out for the next 2 weeks, and Ashlee Palmer of the Lions suffered a partial MCL tear and will be out for 8 weeks.
