Rekrutierungen » Big days from rookies Baker Mayfield and Nick Chubb

paved the way for a Browns win by a final score of 28-16. That sends Cleveland into the bye week with a 3-6-1 record https://www.brownsfanshop.com/Bernie-Kosar-Jersey , and gives interim head coach Gregg Williams his first win. Remember how long it took Hue Jackson to get his first win?The Browns scored their first opening quarter touchdown of the season in Week 10, coming on their second drive of the game. The drive went 8 plays, 88 yards, capped off with a 28-yard touchdown pass from QB Baker Mayfield to WR Rashard Higgins. The extra point gave Cleveland a 7-0 lead.The Falcons got in range for a 40-yard field goal in the second quarter on the next drive to cut the lead to 7-3. Freddie Kitchens got creative on Cleveland’s next drive, deploying a full house formation with RB Duke Johnson, RB Nick Chubb, and RB Dontrell Hilliard all involved. It was going well for the first six plays of the drive, but on the seventh play, a trick play was called as Hilliard tried to throw the wheel route to Mayfield. The pass was intercepted by the safety, who returned it to midfield.Several plays later, QB Matt Ryan hit WR Julio Jones for a 1-yard touchdown pass to give the Falcons a 10-7 lead.But Cleveland responded to close out the first half. With under two minutes to go, Mayfield found Chubb for a misdirection screen pass that went for a 12-yard touchdown to take a 14-10 lead. That completed a perfect first half for Mayfield, who was 12-of-12 for 165 yards and 2 touchdowns.Atlanta tried to drive before the end of the half, but a sack by the Browns thwarted that. The Falcons still got the ball first to begin the second half. After a completion to WR Mohamed Sanu, Sanu fought for extra yardage and ended up getting stripped of the ball. With the short field, Mayfield had the Browns in a 3rd-and-6 situation from the 11 yard line. Mayfield dropped back and found Johnson over the middle, who ran it in for the touchdown to give Cleveland a 21-10 lead.The Browns forced a punt after Atlanta got the ball, pinning the offense back at the 8 yard line. After an incompletion by Mayfield, he handed the ball off to Chubb on second down, who broke away for a 92-yard touchdown for a 28-10 lead mid-way through the third quarter! It was the longest touchdown run in franchise history.You get nervous as a Browns fan that the team will give it right back. But with an 18-point lead, they didn’t, forcing a quick punt instead. As the Browns were driving, Johnson fumbled on a run play in which offensive holding was also called. However Sheldrick Redwine Jersey , replay review indicated that Johnson’s knee was down. The holding penalty then applied, making it 1st-and-20. Eventually, Cleveland had to punt, and Atlanta drove past midfield heading into the final quarter of play.The Falcons drove to the goal line, but a perfect stick by SS Jabrill Peppers at the inch line to the running back forced a 3rd-and-goal from the 1 yard line. LB Joe Schobert stuffed the run on third down, and then on fourth down, he knocked the end zone pass away for a turnover on downs.The Browns had two false starts before they could get a play off, but it didn’t matter since the ball was already inside the 1 yard line. Mayfield got the team out of danger zone with a first-down pass to Callaway. The drive would go no further, punting with under nine minutes to go in the game.The Falcons finally got into the end zone again with 4:24 to go on a 3-yard touchdown pass to TE Amari Hooper, but credit the Browns’ defense with more stops inside the red zone to force more time off the clock. In fact, that was a fourth down play for the touchdown, one in which Cleveland would’ve had Hooper stopped short if the defender had gone for the tackle instead of defending the pass. The score was now 28-16 with Cleveland looking to close things out.Cleveland went three-and-out, but the Browns prevented another score after a fourth down sack and recovery by the Browns.Quick HittersQB Baker Mayfield: 17-of-20 (85%) for 216 yards, 3 touchdowns. 4 rushes, 22 yards (5.5 YPC).RB Nick Chubb: 20 carries, 176 yards (8.8 YPC). 1 TD. 3 catches, 33 yards (3 targets). 1 TD.RB Duke Johnson: 3 carries, 15 yards (5.0 YPC). 4 catches, 31 yards (4 targets). 1 TD. Below, we analyze the snap counts and stats on offense for the Cleveland Browns’ Week 12 game against the Cincinnati Bengals.QuarterbackPosPlayerPlays%StatsPosPlayerPlays%StatsThe great stretch for Baker Mayfield continued on Sunday, when he threw for a career-high 4 touchdowns and 0 interceptions. Remember the years when it’d be tough for a Browns quarterback to even throw for 20 touchdowns in an entire season? In Mayfield’s last 5 games, he’s thrown for 13 touchdowns to just 2 interceptions. Everything is clicking for him, especially since Freddie Kitchens took over the playcalling. Mayfield had a PFF game grade of 80.3 http://www.brownsfanshop.com/Austin-Seibert-Jersey , the third-highest grade on offense.Running BackPosPlayerPlays%StatsPosPlayerPlays%StatsThe Browns didn’t light Cincinnati up on the ground, but that doesn’t mean they didn’t have a commitment to it. When was the last time a Browns running back (Nick Chubb) had 28 carries in a game? He grinded out those 84 yards, and also continues to show impressive hands as a receiver, including the incredible behind-the-defender’s-head catch.It’s kind of funny how we complained about Duke Johnson’s utilization earlier this year. But when he only plays 28% of the snaps against a linebacker-thin Bengals team, it doesn’t get brought up. To be fair, much of the second half was milking the clock and short drives, so Chubb got that workload.Dontrell Hilliard got three snaps; at least one of which was in the full house formation.Wide ReceiverPosPlayerPlays%StatsPosPlayerPlays%StatsThe Browns’ success over the past two games has involved spreading the ball around a lot, and the players are doing their jobs when called upon. I do wonder if Jarvis Landry is at all frustrated with his lack of targets despite the winning, since he’s used to catching so many passes.Antonio Callaway just catches everything now! He caught a touchdown pass and also had a nice sideline grab where he kept both feet in. Rashard Higgins, for the second week in a row, had his only catch come on a somewhat-improvised scramble play.Tight EndPosPlayerPlays%StatsPosPlayerPlays%StatsWhat a game for David Njoku! Yes, his decision to leap from the 4 yard line, thinking he was going to fly into the end zone, was pretty laughable, but somehow it worked!He had the top receiving grade amount tight ends (92.1) for Week 12, and that mark was also the highest on offense for Cleveland.Darren Fells also got a touchdown grab in. Orson Charles is staying on this roster for his passion and feisty nature. Seth DeValve isn’t being utilized much still, but again, that complaint gets overlooked when you keep winning.Offensive LinePosPlayerPlays%StatsPosPlayerPlays%StatsThe Browns allowed 0 sacks and 1 quarterback hit. It was another great day in pass protection for Cleveland. Kevin Zeitler (79.0) and Joel Bitonio (75.1) were the Browns’ 4th- and 5th-highest graded offensive players.Per PFF, “Mayfield was pressured on just five of 27 dropbacks against the Bengals.” They also say that “since head coach Gregg Williams took over, Mayfield has been pressured on just 23.4 percent of his dropbacks, the fourth-lowest rate for any quarterback in the league.”
