The Browns (4-7) suffered their third straight loss at home, and quarterback Brady Quinn was replaced in the second half after throwing two interceptions, the second coming inside Houston’s 10-yard line.

Quoteworthy: “I decided to play the other guy for a little bit to see if that could give us a spark, and that didn’t work either.” -- Romeo Crennel, Browns coach, on pulling Brady Quinn in favor of Derek Anderson
