To win a football match, it is important to win in the first two minutes after the break.
The Browns did just that after halftime.
Cleveland BrownsCleveland BrownsThe first half between the Browns and Jaguars was a back and forth between two teams that made mistakes.
The Browns gave the ball to the Jaguars, the Jaguars gave the ball to the Browns, and neither team was able to control the game.
From the opening minutes of the second half, the Jaguars were poised to tie the score at 14.
The first two plays of the drive set up 3rd-and-21 at the Jacksonville 14-yard line and went backwards.
Trevor Lawrence throws a pass to wide receiver Parker Washington.
Washington was stunned when linebacker Anthony Walker stopped Washington, stripped the football and fumbled.
The ball hit Walker and the Browns forced their third turnover of the afternoon.
There is not enough forced rotation. I think the Browns offense scored on the Jacksonville 22 yard line.
The first three plays covered nine yards, and on fourth-and-1, Joe Flacco slid under center and nudged the quarterback at the first down marker.
This presented another challenge for the Browns. From that point on, Kareem Hunt and the Browns offense took off.
Stefanski took advantage of a playbook wrinkle with Flacco pointing to his right, leaving Kareem Hunt and Harrison Bryant alone in the backfield. Hunt breaks and takes it on the left flank.
Hunt didn’t stop until he got into the paint of the Browns’ end zone. With that, the second half got off to a good start.
The third quarter came to a sudden stop and they led 21-7.
