Ducks In The NFL: Marcus Mariota Fights Through Adversity Against Cleveland Browns

Former Oregon Ducks Quarterback Marcus Mariota had a stellar opening week in the National Football League. In his second week he faced a swarming Cleveland Browns Defense that I don’t remember ever looking that good. The Browns Defensive front seven had their way with Mariota and the Titans Offensive Line most of the day. The first half was not good as the former Oregon Duck was sacked and hurried on multiple occasions. Handoffs to Running Back Bishop Sankey went no where and Mariota ended the first half with no touchdowns and under one-hundred yards passing after last week’s three touchdown in the first half performance at Tampa Bay.
