Terrelle Pryor and the Browns aren’t letting an 0-3 start get them down.
Pryor, a quarterback-wide receiver hybrid, caught eight passes for 144 yards and ran for a touchdown in Sunday’s 30-24 overtime loss at Miami.
“We’re so close to getting over that hump,” Pryor told Cleveland.com. “Once we get over that hump, I think we’re going to have a lot of success, even this year. … I think we can win all the rest of the games.”
The Browns are getting closer to winning each week. Their season-opening, 29-10 loss at Philadelphia seems somewhat forgivable considering what we know now. They had a 20-0 lead over the Ravens in the first quarter before going down 25-20 at home in Week 2. Then on Sunday, they’d have beaten the Dolphins if it weren’t for three missed field goals by Cody Parkey, including a 46-yarder at the end of regulation that would have won the game.
The Browns have been such a laughingstock that the first instinct is to take Pryor’s words to mean that he thinks the Browns can win out and finish 13-3. He doesn’t quite say that. He’s just saying that the Browns are capable of winning the rest of their games.
“It’s just one week at a time,” he said.
The first of those weeks comes Sunday at Washington.
