Browns Boss Blames Turnovers In Seattle Loss
Cleveland coach Sam Rutigliano said four turnovers, three leading to Seattle scores, plus 10 penalties for 75 yards sank the Browns in a 24-9 defeat. Quarterback Brian Sipe threw three second-half picks and faced a fumble review he says should have been a forward pass. The Browns, now 3-2, prepare for the Jets with Sipe still top in the AFC in passing before the game.
