The Cleveland Browns are now winners of three in a row. Led by rookie quarterback Brandon Weeden, rookie running back Trent Richardson, and rookie wide receiver Josh Gordon, they ended up putting 30 points on the board against at Kansas City Chiefs team that has dropped eight of its last nine. The Browns are currently the fourth youngest team in the NFL with 16 rookies on their roster with the age of the average player at just around 26 years of age.
Of the three touchdowns scored on Sunday, all were by rookies, with two rushing touchdowns by Trent Richardson and a punt return for a touchdown by Travis Benjamin. If the Browns continue to make smart plays on the field and hold their opponents to minimum scoring, they may finish with a respectable record.
Of the 26 touchdowns that they Browns have scored this season, 17 have been by rookies. All 13 touchdown passes have been thrown by Brandon Weeden who has shown that he can play in NFL and ultimately in a very tough AFC North division. With three games remaining, the Browns have a chance to finish with a respectable 8-8 record. However with Washington, Denver, and Pittsburgh as the next three opponents, it will be tough for the Browns to finish with any wins realistically.
