A PRETTY EASY CALL.
>> Kevin: FIRST AND LONG. PRESCOTT TO THROW.
PRESSURE. HE IS DECKED!
DALVIN TOMLINSON FLYING THROUGH THE MIDDLE AND A SACK TO START
FOR CLEVELAND. GOT TO SPREAD THE BALL AROUND,
KEEP THE PLAY CALLS CREATIVE. AND DAK'S GOT TO GET THE BALL
OUST HIS HANDS BEFORE GARRETT'S PASS RUSH CAN GET THERE.
>> Kevin: ELLIOTT WHO'S GOT A DECENT SEAM BUT NOWHERE NEAR A
FIRST DOWN. BRYAN ANGER TO PUNT IT AWAY.
AND JAIL JAELON DARDEN JUST CALLED UP FROM THE PRACTICE
SQUAD. YOUR FORMER TEAMMATE.
SHORT KICK. DARDEN HAS ROOM.
A LOT OF IT. UP TO THE 45.
INTO DALLAS TERRITORY. WHAT I ASTART FOR THE BROWNS.
>> Tom: WOW, DARDEN JUST GETS EARLY, GET SOME CLEAN POCKETS
BE, LET THE BALL COME OUT OF HIS HAND, GET IT TO HIS PLAYMAKERS.
>> Kevin: QUICK THROW, AND HE GETS IT THERE ON TIME FOR A
FIRST DOWN AGAINST THE FORMER COWBOY AMRI COOPER.
PLAYING AGAINST DALLAS FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THE TRADE.
AND THAT SHOULD BE ENOUGH FOR A FIRST DOWN.
WE KNOW ONE THING, TOM, THEY'RE ALREADY IN GOOD FIELD
GOAL RANGE HERE. >> Kevin: WATSON PRESSURE.
HE CAN RUN. BREAKS ONE TACKLE, TURNS IT
UPFIELD AND IS GOING TO BE TACKLED SHORT OF A FIRST DOWN.
AND A NICE POSITION, NICE RUN BY EARLY LEAD.
HOPKINS DRILLS IT. IT IS GOOD.
AND SO THE BROWNS AFTER A DEFENSIVE STOP AND A NICE PUNT
RETURN SET UP AND GRAB A FIELD GOAL.
MAKE IT 3-0 EARLY IN THIS FIRST QUARTER. LEVELS OF THE DEFENSE.
>> Kevin: BACK TO THE FIRST AND TEN AFTER A COUPLE OF PENALTIES.
LAMB GETS A COUPLE BLOCKS. CEEDEE LAMB.
AND LUNGING FORWARD. WE'LL SEE WHERE THEY MARK IT
DOWN. AND EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE THEY
SQUAT HIM IN THE MIDDLE AND THAT'S WHEN HE'S ABLE TO DRIVE
ON THOSE THROWS. GOOD PASS DEFENSE BY THORNHILL.
VERY ATHLETIC PLAYER. >> Kevin: PRESCOTT GOING DEEP
FAR LEFT SIDE OF THE FIELD LOOKING FOR LAMB.
OH, WHAT A CATCH! CEEDEE LAMB INBOUNDS AND A
COMPLETION RIGHT OVER DENZEL DAK KNOWS WHERE HE'S AT TOO.
THE TOUCHDOWN IS CAUGHT BY BRANDIN COOKS! >> Kevin: YEAH.
WORKING ON THAT LEFT SIDE. LOCKED UP.
HE'S GOT A WAY TO GO. HEAD DOWN.
HE'S NOT GOING TO GET THERE. STACKED.
GOING TO BE ABOUT THREE YARDS CAN DO.
>> Kevin: THAT'S AMAZING. THIRD AND THREE.
THEY'RE GOING TO GIVE ON THE GROUND.
ELLIOTT BIG HOLE. UP TO THE 25 IS ELLIOTT.
BACK IN DALLAS. SECOND AND NINE.
>> Tom: MAN-TO-MAN COVERAGE. >> Kevin: PRESCOTT DRIVES.
DOES THAT IN STRIDE. LAMB UPENDED BUT HE'S GOT A
FIRST DOWN. TO YOUR POINT NOBODY BETTER
AGAINST MAN TO MAN THAN DAK THAT WAS A LITTLE BIT LUCKY
THERE FOR DAK THAT THAT WASN'T A PICK GOING THE OTHER WAY.
>> Kevin: THIRD AND FIVE THEY ROLL THEM OUT AND MISFIRES.
BRANDIN COOKS OUT THERE. COULD NOT CONNECT.
AND THE BROWNS WILL GET IT BACK. MIGHT GET A CHIP HERE.
>> Kevin: HE LIKES THAT SIDE TODAY.
PRESSURE AGAIN. WATSON STEPS UP.
HERE COMES PARSONS, AND HE GETS HOME!
HE DIDN'T GET A CHIP. >> Tom: WOW.
GOT A CHIP AND BEAT IT. LITTLE FLAIR PASS TO ZEKE.
IT'S A GOOD WAY TO HANDLE THESE GOOD PASS RUSHERS.
>> Kevin: LAMB JET SWEEP. NICE LITTLE MANEUVER.
FIRST DOWN AND MORE. SOOTY FTY MOVES THERE
TO PICK UP THE FIRST DOWN. >> Kevin: HE WENT BACK UP TOP.
>> Tom: OH. >> Kevin: FIRST AND TEN.
PRESCOTT KEEPS IT. HAS R HA LOT OF TIME.
CAUGHT BY JALEN BROOKS, WHO MAKES A CATCH, HAS A FIRST, CUTS
BACK AND HE'S DOWN TO THE 20. JALEN BROOKS JUST SIX CATCHES
ALL YEAR LAST YEAR IN HIS ROOKIE YEAR, DELIVERS THERE.
WHAT A PLAY BY DAK. AVOIDING THE DEFENSIVE LINE.
GET IT OUT THERE AND LET YOUR GUYS MAKE SOME PLAYS.
>> Kevin: PRESSURE. PRESCOTT SET UP A SCREEN.
THIS COULD WORK. ELLIOTT MAKES A GREAT MOVE.
ELLIOTT INSIDE THE 10. HE'S GOT A FIRST AND GOAL.
THORNHILL ON THE STOP. CLEVELAND STRUGGLED KEEPING
PEOPLE OUT OF THE RED ZONE. >> Kevin: ELLIOTT'S GOING TO BE
IN THE END ZONE. TOUCHDOWN DALLAS!
>> Tom: SIMPLE INSIDE ZONE. TO HANDLE HIM.
>> Kevin: PARSONS LINED UP TOP OF YOUR SCREEN RIGHT HERE ON
THIS THIRD AND LONG. WATSON QUICK THROW JUST TO GET
RID OF IT. HAS A COMPLETION AND MORE.
HE IS BOUNCING AROUND TRYING TO MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN.
PENALTY FROM THE SECONDARY. NOWHERE NEAR A FIRST DOWN.
BUT LET'S SEE WHAT THE PENALTY JET SWEEPS.
REALLY GOOD. JUST KEEPING THINGS OFF BALANCE
AND STAYING AHEAD OF THE DOWN AND DISTANCE.
>> Kevin: THERE'S PRESCOTT. HAS SOME TIME.
LETS IT RIP FAR SIDE. COOKS WITH A SLIDING CATCH.
HAD THE TOUCHDOWN CATCH EARLIER. HE'S GOT A FIRST DOWN FOR
DALLAS. I WASN'T SURE WITH YOU COMING IN
THE BOOTH, I MADE SURE I DID MY EVERYONE'S LOOKING AT
THEMSELVES. ORGANIZATION THEY'VE GOT TO
IMPROVE THIS THOSE BIG MOMENTS AND IT DOES START WITH THE
QUARTERBACK AND I ME DAK KNOWS HE'S GOT TO IMPROVE THAT AS
WELL. >> Kevin: TAPPED DOWN THERE BY
THORNHILL. WELL SHORT OF A FIRST DOWN.
>> Tom: PUNT. THIS IS 57.
HE HIT FROM 56 IN THIS DIRECTION IN PREGAME WARM-UPS.
AUBREY GETS INTO IT. IT IS UP AND IT IS GOOD!
WITH ROOM TO SPARE. A BOMB FROM ANDON AUB RE, AND
THE COWBOYS EXTEND TO 17-3. TOP OF THE SCREEN.
>> Kevin: WATSON TIPPED IN THE AIR.
THAT'S INTERCEPTED BY KENDRICKS! AN EASY ONE FOR THIS DALLAS D AS
ERIC KENDRICKS HAS HIS FIRST INTERCEPTION AS A COWBOY, AND
GUESS WHO GOT IT. PARSONS TIPPED IT IN THE AIR.
>> Tom: THEY'RE PRESSURING WITH >> Tom: THIS IS IMPORTANT GOING
INTO HALF. >> Kevin: PRESCOTT IN TROUBLE.
AND HE IS DROPPED! ZA'DARIUS SMITH GETS A BIG SACK.
AND THAT'LL BRING UP FOURTH BIT AGO.
THIS WILL BE FROM 40. AND HE DRILLS IT.
BOY, HE IS SOMETHING ELSE. RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE.
20-3 COWBOYS. YOU KNOW, HERE IN BRAZIL WE HAD
THE EAGLES-PACKERS THE OTHER IT'S ACTUALLY THIRD AND 11.
YOU'RE DEALING WITH THIS PASS RUSH.
THEY'VE GOT PARSONS STANDING UP HERE IN THE MIDDLE.
THIS PACKAGE BY DIMMER MAKES IT SO CHALLENGING.
>> Kevin: HERE COMES MICAH PARSONS.
AND THERE GOES WATSON. HIS LINEMATE GETS HOME.
>> Tom: LINING UP PARSONS IN THE FIRST HALF.
GETS HIS FIRST SACK OF THE YEAR. ANOTHER BOJORQUEZ PUNT.
TURPIN RACING UP THE MIDDLE. UH-OH!
KECH KaVONTAE TURPIN NEEDS ONE MORE
BLOCK! HE'S GOT IT!
AND HE GOES FOR THE TOUCHDOWN! BUT I WANT TO SEE SOME GOOD
SOLID EXECUTION. ELIMINATE SOME OF THE PENALTIES.
TRY TO BUILD SOMETHING AS THIS HALF GOES.
>> Kevin: THIRD AND SIX. AND THAT'S A START.
CONVERSION. JERRY JEUDY HAS A CATCH.
KIND OF GET A SARCASTIC CHEER. THAT'S THEIR LONGEST PLAY OF THE
DAY. IT CONVERTS A FIRST DOWN.
15 YARDS TO JEUDY. FORCING ERRANT THROWS.
YOU FEEL THAT AS A QUARTERBACK. YOU KNOW THE TIMING'S OFF.
>> Kevin: HERE'S WATSON. MIDDLE.
IT'S CAUGHT BY NJOKU, WHO MAKES A NICE CASH AND GETS HIT BUT
STAYS WITH IT. DOWN INSIDE THE 30 HE GOES.
SO FINALLY A LITTLE LIFE FROM THE BROWNS ON OFFENSE.
AND A 29-YARD GAIN. AMMARI COOPER'S ONLY GOT ONE
CATCH TODAY. THIRD AND TEN HERE.
BLITZ AGAIN. QUICK THROW OVER THE MIDDLE.
STRIKE THIS TIME BY WATSON. AND IT'S GOING TO BE CLOSE.
IT LOOKS TO BE ENOUGH FOR A FIRST DOWN.
THAT IS COOPER'S SECOND CATCH. 12th PLAY OF THE DRIVE
BROWNS. SECOND AND GOAL.
AND IT'S WATSON. QUICK THROW.
LOOKING OUTSIDE. IT IS CAUGHT!
TOUCHDOWN, JERRY JEUDY! NOW ON THE THIRD DOWN COMING.
BLITZ COMING. PRESCOTT SEES IT, THROWS
UNDERNEATH AND IT'S SHORT AND IT'S INCOMPLETE.
NEWSOME WAS THERE. WOULDN'T HAVE MADE IT ANYWAY.
AS LAMB THE INTENDED RECEIVER. AND THE BROWNS DEFENSE STEPPING
UP. AND THEY'LL GET IT BACK.
>> Tom: GOOD COVERAGE. THERE FOR THAT YOUNG MAN.
TOM, YOUR FIRST TOUCHDOWN OCTOBER 14th, 2001, I'M SURE YOU
REMEMBER IT WELL. >> Kevin: OH, CHARISSA WITH THE
RESEARCH. I LOVE IT.
>> Tom: CHARISSA, THAT WAS SO >> Tom: ANOTHER TOUGH BLITZ PACK
AGE WITH CARSON IN THE MIDDLE. >> Kevin: WATSON LOOKING FOR
SOMETHING. NOBODY'S OPEN.
HE IS DECKED! AND THE COWBOYS TAKE OVER.
DeMARVION OVERSHOWN. AND YOU'RE THINKING NO NEGATIVE
PLAYS, GOT TO GET SOME OF THAT BACK.
>> Kevin: SET UP A SCREEN, LAMB. LAMB MAKES A MAN MISS BUT NOT
THE NEXT. AS HE'S TAKEN DOWN BY SHELL BY
HARRIS. HERE COMES THE FIELD GOAL TEAM
FOR THE COWBOYS. THAT.
THIS ONE FROM 50 YARDS OUT. AUBREY.
OH, HE DREW IT IN THERE. PRETTY TO MAKE IT 30-10.
1:27 TO GO IN THIS THIRD BEEN A THIRD AND LONG FOR THEM.
>> Tom: PARSONS AGAIN. >> Kevin: WATTSONS STILL HAS
SOME PRESSURE. HE'S IN TROUBLE.
GETS AWAY. HAS A WAY TO GO TO GET TO THE
FIRST DOWN MARKER AND HE'S NOT GOING TO GET THERE.
MIKE ZIMMER DOING MIKE ZIMMER DOWN 20.
>> Tom: YEAH. FOUR-MAN RUSH.
IT'S BLOCKED UP. WATSON STILL CAN'T FIND ANYBODY.
NOW HE'S IN TROUBLE. GETS HIT AS HE THROWS, AND IT'S
INCOMPLETE. AND THE COWBOYS WILL TAKE OVER.
>> Tom: ANOTHER ESCAPE TO THE NOT ENOUGH OFFENSE.
TOO MANY PENALTIES. >> Kevin: PRESCOTT ON THE FAKE,
GETS IT OUT TO LUEPKE, THE FULLBACK, ROOM TO ROLL.
AND THE BIG GUY IS INSIDE THE 30.
HAS A FIRST DOWN. DOWN TO THE 26.
HUNTER LUEPKE, WHO ACTUALLY RUSHES WHERE HE CAN IMPACT THE
GAME WITH A BIG SCREEN. >> Kevin: COMING AT HIM THERE ON
A THIRD AND LONG, AND THAT PLAY IS UPENDED AND DROPPED.
JEREMIAH OWUSU-KORAMOAH ALL OVER EZEKIEL ELLIOTT.
IT WILL BRING UP A FOURTH DOWN. AS AUBREY COMES ON THE FIELD.
WOW. BUT REALLY LIKE SEEING HIM AS A
YOUNG PLAYER TAKE IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL.
>> Kevin: AUBREY FROM 46 YARDS OUT.
THAT IS UP AND GOOD. HE'S HAD A GREAT DAY.
4 FOR 4 INCLUDING A 57-YARDER. COWBOYS ADD ON, MAKE IT A
23-POINT LEAD HERE IN CLEVELAND. BUT IT'S REALLY FUN HOW HE'S
GOING TO USE SIMILAR PERSONNEL DIFFERENTLY.
SECOND DOWN HERE FOR WATSON. STRONG MAKES THE CATCH.
HE'S GOT ANOTHER FIRST DOWN. HE'S UP NEAR THE 37.
SO TODAY MAY BE A LITTLE DAY OF WITH ANTICIPATION.
HE'S ONE OF THE GUYS THAT HE FORCES YOU TO HOLD THE BALL AND
WAIT FOR YOU TO GET OPEN AND THAT'S NOT WHERE YOU WANT TO BE
AS A STARTING QUARTERBACK. >> Kevin: HERE'S WATSON.
GOOD THROW THAT TIME AND A COMPLETION TO AKINS.
BACKUP TIGHT END, WHO HOLDS IT IN FOR A FIRST DOWN.
AND HE'S MADE CLEVELAND GUYS, AND YOU SEE WHY TODAY.
>> Kevin: WATSON FAR SIDE. AND THAT IS INTERCEPTED!
TREVON DIGGS HAS HIS FIRST SINCE THE ACL SURGERY.
>> Tom: ONE OF THOSE CORNERBACKS PROBABLY A SAFE PLAY.
DON'T WANT HIM TO MAKE AN IMPACT HERE.
>> Kevin: QUICK THROW OVER THE MIDDLE.
INCOMPLETE. TRYING TO GET IT TO LAMB.
AND THE COWBOYS WILL PUNT IT AWAY.
WELL, WHY DON'T WE LOOK AHEAD TO FOURTH AND FOUR HERE.
>> Tom: TIGHT END. TIGHT END.
>> Kevin: WATSON DIDN'T SEE HIM. CHASED AWAY RUNNING.
HE'S GOING TO GET TO THE FIRST DOWN BEFORE CLARK BRINGS HIM
DOWN. WATSON TO GO IN THERE AND BE THE
DOMINANT PLAYER HE WAS IN HOUSTON, THAT'S WHY THEY TRADED
FOR HIM. BUT THEY'RE GOING TO NEED SOME
OTHER PARTS TO COME TOGETHER TO HELP.
>> THAT WAS CHUBB WE SHOWED YOU ON THE SCREEN, BY THE WAY.
AKINS MAKES THE CATCH. GOING TO BE SHORT.
FOURTH DOWN AND ABOUT TWO. OPPORTUNITY FOR OUR PASS RUSH
TODAY. AND THAT'S BEEN THE STORY OF THE
GAME OBVIOUSLY. PLAYING DEFENSE SO WELL AS THEY
HAVE DEFENSIVELY. BUT AGAIN, YOU GO ON THE ROAD
THE FIRST GAME OF THE SEASON, AND GET SET FOR THE SAINTS WITH
A ROUSING WEEK 1 VICTORY. >> Tom: FOURTH AND LONG.
>> Kevin: WATSON LOOKING AROUND. GOING TO TAKE OFF AND RUN.
GOING TO GET THE FIRST DOWN. GOING TO STAY ON HIS FEET.
AND DOWN TO THE 6. IT'S FIRST AND GOAL.
DON'T FORGET COMING UP NEXT "THE AS THEY BEAT THE GIANTS ON THE
ROAD. COVER IT ALL FOR YOU.
AND FORD IS GOING TO GET IN FOR THE TOUCHDOWN.
CLEVELAND WILL PUNCH ONE MORE HOME WITH 29 SECONDS TO GO.
AS JEROME FORD HAS HIS FIRST OF THE YEAR >> Tom: THANKS, MY MAN.
IT'S BEEN A GREAT JOURNEY. AND GREAT THAT THE NFL SEASON'S
UNDER WAY. GREAT FOR THE FANS.
GREAT FOR EVERYONE WHO LOVES FOOTBALL.
>> Kevin: AND CERTAINLY IF YOU'RE A COWBOYS FAN IN A
ROUSING WEEK ONE PERFORMANCE.
