CLEVELAND: After the Browns redefined rock bottom in Sunday’s 35-10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, they were left trying to convince themselves that they won’t live the worst nightmare of every NFL player and coach.
“We’re not going to go 0-16,” inside linebacker Chris Kirksey said. “That’s for a fact. We’re not doing that.
“We’re going to keep fighting. Nobody’s going to sit down and get punched in the face. That’s not us.”
The Browns, though, are flirting with becoming the fifth NFL team since 1944 to go winless. The 2008 Detroit Lions are the only team to finish a season winless since the league adopted a 16-game schedule.
