NFL Note - Cleveland Browns Kizer, DeShone

Dec 11, 2017 - 8:50 AM QB DeShone Kizer threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to Corey Coleman for a 21-7 lead with 2:49 left in the third quarter. It was Cleveland's largest lead of the season, but the fourth-quarter collapse has been all too familiar to the Browns, who are 1-28 under head coach Hue Jackson.

A 12-play, 70-yard drive on the Browns' first possession of the second quarter ended with Kizer flipping a shovel pass to running back Duke Johnson for 7 yards and a touchdown. Kizer connected with Coleman for gains of 20 and 18 yards on the drive. The three touchdown passes were a season high for Kizer, the rookie from Notre Dame, but he was glum after the game.

"It hurts," Kizer said. "Obviously when you start tasting a little victory throughout the game, you start remembering all the things that go into winning. When you don't get to that at the end of the game, it hurts. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. If we continue to put forth the effort Coach (Jackson) asks of us, we'll get over this hill."
