Why a tie isn't such a bad thing for the Cleveland Browns

The Akron Beacon Journal/Ohio.com podcast

Is a tie such a bad thing? Maybe not when it comes to the Cleveland Browns. On today's Cover 2: A Podcast on the Cleveland Browns, Steve Doerschuk of the Canton Repository breaks down Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The two teams tied 21-21, and for the Browns the game should be looked at as a positive. The tie came despite some questionable play and decisions. The oddest decision may have been starting undrafted rookie Desmond Harrison at left tackle. Steve goes deep on the play of the offensive line, including right tackle Chris Hubbard having trouble in pass protection. Offensive line woes weren't the only thing holding back the Browns. Starting quarterback Tyrod Taylor completed only 37.5 percent of his 40 pass attempts, and Josh Gordon was only targeted three times. All was not bad for the Browns though. Defensive end Myles Garrett somehow exceeded expectations and rookie cornerback Denzel Ward had two interceptions. We go over all of that and more on this week's Cover 2 podcast on the Cleveland Browns.
