Despite the Cleveland Browns‘ disappointing defeat at the hands of defending NFC champion Los Angeles Rams, the Browns backup defensive backs deserve great credit. They were not outstanding, but under the circumstances, namely playing the high-flying, prolific offense of the Los Angeles Rams, the defensive backs and coaching staff exceeded expectations.
Eric Murray, T.J. Carrie, Terrance Mitchell, Juston Burris and Jermaine Whitehead all played 100 percent of the 66 defensive snaps. Of that fabulous five, Whitehead is the only true regular, while Carrie and Murray also get in on a number of plays.
