Browns 23, Jaguars 17
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The Cleveland Browns had just enough offense, even without Kellen Winslow.
Jamal Lewis ran for 81 yards and a touchdown and Derek Anderson passed for 264 yards and a TD as the Browns beat the Jacksonville Jaguars, 23-17.
It was Cleveland’s second win in as many games without Winslow, the outspoken Pro Bowl tight end who missed the game after criticizing the team following his staph infection.
The Browns (3-4) played their best game of the season two weeks ago, beating the Giants while Winslow was in the hospital.
They also didn’t miss him against the Jaguars (3-4), who fell to 2-4 after open dates under Coach Jack Del Rio.
Quoteworthy: “If my guys come to play the way they came to play today, we are going to be in it.” -- Romeo Crennel, Browns coach
