Browns 20, Jets 13
There's a thing about Browns wins since 1999. You have to enjoy them as much as possible, because you have no idea when the next one will come.
Cleveland did play better today, and did deserve to win. Jeff Davidson will likely get a lot of credit for the 20-point effort, and yes, the offense was better, especially for the first three quarters. Charlie Frye looked more comfortable, the offensive line, despite the loss of Joe Andruzzi and the absence of Ryan Tucker, played their best game this season. And Sean Jones led the defense, which played the bend-but-don't-break to perfection.
If Cleveland hadn't allowed the kick return, it would have been downright easy.
But it never is in this city. Still, I'll take it.

I actually think the offensive line played their best game of the season BECAUSE of the loss of Andruzzi and Tucker. Both those guys are woefully past their primes.
Tucker, in particular, looks like he should be writing a weekly column for ESPN instead of suiting up every Sunday.
Speaking of Tucker, let's take bets on this mystery illness.
Gonorrhea: 2-1
Bob Hallen disease: 5-1
Hatestowinitis: 10-1
A legit illness: 10000000000-1
This from the New England Journal of Medicine:
"Hallen's Disease:
Characterized by the sudden realization that the free ride you though you were going to get has become a grueling fulltime job.
Though Hallen's disease was first identified in aging professional athletes who found work was interfering with their golf games, Hallen's Disease can also be found in teenage fast food restaurant employees, and in receptionists who treat every caller like dirt because it means she has to put down her "Cosmo," pick up the phone and do actual work.
Symptoms include feigning illness/injury to get out of work, general apathy and sudden cross-country flights to get second opinions on vague, mysterious maladies."
