Browns rely on QBs and tight ends for title bid
Cleveland Browns' pursuit of an Eastern Conference title and a first Super Bowl bid centers on quarterback depth with Jerry Rhome joining Bill Nelsen and Frank Ryan. Nelsen's knee risk, Ryan's faded starter role, Morin's back surgery, and Barnys small size shape a cautious outlook as veterans Hickerson DeMario Schafrath Clark Hoaglin anchor the line and rookies push at backs and defense.
