The Browns dropped a 34-17 decision to the New England Patriots today. The biggest factor in this loss, appeared to be turnovers. Teams need to protect the ball, and not turn it over, if they want to win games. The Browns recorded a total of 4; 3 of which directly led to 21 New England points.

The Browns also contested much of the game without stars Jamal Lewis and Joe Jurevicius. The Patriots improve to 5-0 while the Browns fall to 2-3.

Brady Quinn did not play, even though CBS announcers speculated that he might come in to relieve Derek Anderson after an apparent injury.

The team returns home next week to host the winless Miami Dolphins.
