The Cleveland Browns are back in business and have struck first in their Week 13 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Quarterback Joe Flacco does not look like a quarterback who has been on the couch for 11 months as he found running back Jerome Ford for a long touchdown, capping off a stellar opening drive.
All in all, Flacco is back like he never left. He finished the opening drive and his first drive in a Cleveland Browns uniform with 65 yards and a touchdown on four-of-five passing. Ford leads the Browns with 37 yards receiving on two catches thus far. Now on their fourth starting quarterback on the season, the Browns could do something no team has done in nearly a decade.
Can the defense follow up an opening drive touchdown with a stop of their own to push the Rams back? With still nine minutes left in the first quarter, there is plenty of football left to be played.
Of course. Joe Flacco throws a TD t Jerome Ford on his first possession.
