BROWNS & BROWNS FANS ARE HAVING FUN AGAIN

Our Browns are back in first place since God knows when. The best news is that the team is for real, especially the defense and it looks so good to see the standings:

Central W L T Pct. PF PA Home Away Div Conf
Cleveland 3 1 0 .750 73 53 2-1 1-0 1-0 2-1
Baltimore 3 1 0 .750 73 47 2-0 1-1 1-1 2-1
Pittsburgh 2 1 0 .667 39 31 1-0 1-1 1-1 2-1
Cincinnati 2 2 0 .500 65 71 2-0 0-2 1-1 2-2
Jacksonville 2 2 0 .500 63 56 2-1 0-1 2-1 2-2
Tennessee 0 3 0 .000 36 70 0-1 0-2 0-2 0-3

Against a good San Diego offense and with the score tied in the 4th quarter, the Browns defense showed its stuff. Chargers had the ball on the one yard line and first down and held them to a field goal. This was also done against an improved Charger team with the leagues best new runner - Tomlinson and the savvy QB Doug Flutie. The defense's goal line stand was the turning point, as the Browns beat the previously unbeaten Chargers 20-16.

``That's what we're all about,'' safety Earl Little said. ``We want to be a tough-nosed, smash-mouth type defense. That's what we're trying to build as our identity.'' The new, improved Browns back up the talk with real, tough, smash-mouth football. We are not going to take it anymore. The Browns fans at the Garrett in Campbell (and all over this land) agree.

Browns Backers and fans are now matching the Browns intensity with wonderful LOUD cheers again!

It is great fun to view a Browns game again - hope to see you all out at one of the Browns Backers locations next Sunday morning!

Keep in touch - Go Browns (and Tribe) !
