Official Texans vs. Browns Game Thread, 12/4/2022

[Keith]

Browns seem to be realizing the best way to beat the Texans is on the ground. Peoples-Jones though called for another penalty, this time an illegal block in the back, pushing the Brown back to the edge of field goal range. Watson scrambles on 2nd down for 11 yards. Deep pass on 3rd down is into the endzone, and no one is within 15 yards of it.

Cade York's field goal attempt is converted from 43 yards.

8-17 Browns
9:36 remaining in the game

Allen's pass is deflected and pick-six'd by Tony Fields. He was waiting for a screen play to set up, and disaster ensued. Allen is who we thought he was.

Extra point is good.

21 of the 24 points scored by the Browns today have been by defense and special teams. God bless America, this team is bad.

8-24 Browns

This is by a considerable measure the worst team the organization has ever fielded. Caserio has had several years to rework the team and has managed to make it worse. I don't know how much worse he can make the team with his various moves, but I suppose we'll find out.

King fumbles a punt return, recovered by Fields. Browns quit trying hard, because they don't have to, kick a 42-yd field goal to go up 27-8 with 4 minutes to play.

Allen finally connects again with Collins, just his second of the day, for 16 yards to the 48. Then a pass to Chris Moore where the receiver niftly dodges some tacklers for 39 yards to the Browns' 6.

Out of the shotgun, Allen then hits Collins once again, this time for a 6-yd touchdown. Two point conversion fails.

14-27 Browns

Fairbairn onsides kick attempt doesn't work. Browns kneel it out.
