Browns weigh Detmer and Holcomb as QB options
The Browns compare Tim Detmer and Kelly Holcomb, ages 33 and 27, with different careers and injury histories. Detmer, a Heisman winner with 49 NFL games and 21 starts, just returned from an Achilles rupture while Holcomb, 28, has five NFL games and one start. Both fit Cleveland’s short quick-pass system, but Couch remains the starter as the team negotiates who joins him and promising rookie Spergan Wynn.

One pitch spoils outing for Burba
Dave Burba pitched four innings, allowing two hits and two walks in his first return to the bullpen. A two-run homer by David Ortiz on his second pitch proved decisive as the Twins beat the Indians in the Metrodome. Burba attributed the mistake to a fastball left over the plate while noting improved velocity and use of his curveball and splitter.
