Oakland Raiders Vs Cleveland Browns
Arena: Cleveland Browns Stadium
Time: Sunday, Dec 27, 2009 at 1:00 PM
League: NFL – United States of America
With Mike Holmgren taking over in Cleveland, Mangini’s job status could be in question. The Browns have won two consecutive games, and if they close out the season with four straight victories, Holmgren might be more inclined to give Mangini another year.
Cleveland got a franchise record 286 rushing yards from Jerome Harrison in a 41-34 win over Kansas City. … JaMarcus Russell came off the bench to lead the Raiders past the Broncos, 2.
The Raiders’ five wins have come by an average of just 2.8 points per game. … Oakland’s Shane Lechler leads the NFL with a 51.5-yard punting avearage. … Browns RB Jerome Harrison rushed for a franchise record 286 yards in a win over the Chiefs last week. … Cleveland’s Josh Cribbs holds the league record for kickoff returns for a touchdown in his career with eight.
In what has largely been a lost season for the Browns, Cribbs continues to shine. He had two long kickoff return touchdowns last week to give him a league record eight for his career, and he has also been dynamic as a punt returner and Wildcat quarteback this year. It will be a great matchup to see how Cribbs does against perhaps the league’s best kicking tandem in Oakland punter Shane Lechler and place kicker Sebastian Janikowski. Goal’s highlights, results and more will be on site, as soon as posible.. stay tuned.
