Daryl Ruiter tells Ken and Lima that the Browns' 12 penalties, including five on one drive, come from the veteran linemen rather than the rookies, and that the line is making Deshaun Watson's job harder than it needs to be. He questions Todd Monken's decision to go for it on fourth and one but likes the aggressiveness, and credits the defense for locking down Tet McMillan and extending its streak without allowing a 300-yard passer. Ken and Lima close by looking ahead to Thursday's game against Pittsburgh and how a 3-1 start would change the tone around the team.
