Lhslep, any chance you can post PFF grades from yesterday's game?
I predict another sweep. Pitching sucks and our bats have gone silent.

Cleveland Browns – Three Performances of Note[/LEFT]
Terrance West, RB: +1.4
Breakdown: Cleveland’s third-round pick wasn’t expected to see a ton of action, but with Ben Tate injuring himself (again), it was West’s time to shine, with an even 100 yards rushing on just 16 carries.
Signature Stat: The Towson State product forced six missed tackles, and averaged 4.1 Yards After Contact. He also finished with an Elusive Rating of 154.7.
Brian Hoyer, QB: -0.8
Breakdown: Hoyer acquitted himself reasonably well given all the talk this offseason, completing 19-of-31 passes for 230 yards and a touchdown, without turning the ball over. He was sharp in the second half when he seemed much more comfortable in the hurry-up offense, leading the Browns to 24 unanswered points before the Steelers pulled it out. As you might expect from someone in just his fifth career start, he struggled greatly under pressure. He was just 1-of-6 passing on eight dropbacks under pressure, and was sacked three total times.
Signature Stat: He completed only 3-of-8 passes over the middle from zero to nine yards downfield.
Karlos Dansby, LB: +1.5
Breakdown: Lured from Arizona with a big free agent contract, Dansby showed why he got so much green. He finished with six tackles, four assists, three stops, and an interception for good measure.
Signature Stat: In the second quarter with 14:38 remaining, Dansby made a terrific break on a short out route by the RB and cut in front of him for a diving interception.
