After a terrible opening game, the Cleveland Browns got off to a hot start in Week 2 with a 16-play, 89-yard touchdown drive on their first offensive possession against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Deshaun Watson rushed for a one-yard gain on a designed quarterback run to conclude an impressive start for Cleveland.

Running back D’Onta Foreman was the featured back early on, with five rushes for 17 yards, including an eight-yard run for his longest. Five different receivers caught a pass on the first drive, and Amari Cooper wasn’t one of them. Elijah Moore and Jerry Jeudy each caught two passes, while David Bell and Jordan Akins also made big gains on catches.

Watson looked much more comfortable on the first drive, completing seven of eight passes for 83 yards. Jeudy’s botched catch on second-and-20 was key in getting them out of a sticky situation. The Browns will look to build on a great start in this one.
