Defensively, though there were no interceptions recorded by Cleveland players during this matchup against New York Jets' offense which was relentless throughout four quarters of play.

Despite these efforts and holding possession for over half an hour during gameplay time—thanks partly due to converting eight out twelve third-down attempts—the Browns fell short by just one point when all was said and done.
