Pasquarelli’s Morning After column is chock full of Browns stuff, including this little tidbit, “heard in the press box”…

Now that it looks like Reuben Droughns is going to be the starting tailback in Cleveland, the Browns might try to trade one of their other backs before the deadline. A lot of teams would love to get Lee Suggs, but he can’t stay healthy, and that’s a concern. …

As one of our commenters posted, the Browns offensive line has quietly had two solid games, including ZERO sacks…I’d be hesitant to lay it all on Droughns to the point of trading his competition.

…from ESPN’s Len Pasquarelli, who also gives kudos to the Browns coaching staff…

As for Maurice Carthon, well, he schemed up and then called a very aggressive game against the Green Bay Packers, and the result was a 336-yard passing day and three touchdown tosses for Browns quarterback Trent Dilfer. The Browns and Carthon didn’t try to nurse their late lead, and put the game away on a 62-yard scoring pass to tight end Steve Heiden. Crennel is a terrific guy. Ditto Carthon. Congratulations to both men and to the Cleveland organization.

The Browns actually look like a football team for once, and everyone has noticed.
