McDonald intercepted a Bears pass and the Browns were on the move again. ...

Did Brady Quinn come to play today? Doesn’t look that way. Defensive backfield come to play? Doesn’t look like it either. First team defensive line looked pretty good. They put pressure on the Lion’s QB almost every time he dropped back to pass. They also stuffed the run every play except one 35 yard TD run by Smith.
Penalties were a problem again this week. The offense ...

That’s our first pressure of the preseason. Eric Wright is having problems with coverage. I noticed the problem last week. He drops 10 yards off the receiver every play.
He got burned big ...
