Lions might be remedy for Browns
A trip to Detroit might be the best medicine for the ailing Browns. Then again, the game against the Lions might provide more reasons for Browns owner Randy Lerner to make a coaching change. The Lions, like the Browns, have a 1-8 record. They’re coming off the first winless season since the 1977 Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They’re bad (not in Michael Jackson’s use of the word), which should give the Browns reason for hope Sunday at Ford Field. “This is the NFL,” Browns quarterback Brady Quinn said. “Everyone is on a competitive level. Obviously, every team has talent. Every team has guys that are good players. We’re focusing on ourselves this week. We’re working to improve and to be more consistent.” The schedule hasn’t exactly been favorable to the Browns. Six of the their opponents to date are legitimate playoff teams – the Vikings, Broncos, Ravens (twice), Bengals, Steelers and Packers.

BEREA -- For the Browns receivers, it’s business as usual this week despite having to deal with another quarterback change.
Maybe that’s because the receivers have enough on their plates to keep them occupie.
