Browns and Phipps-Demarie botch snaps spark late rally loss
In a tight opener, the Browns fell 24-17 to the Bengals as Phipps and Demarie mishandled the center snaps three times in the crucial fourth quarter. Cincinnati built a 24-3 edge before Cleveland’s two quick TDs cut the margin. Browns coach Paul Brown cited Bob Brown’s jump on the snap as a key factor. Issac Curtis and Boobie Clark sparked a quick early lead for Cincinnati.
