In the fourth quarter, they turned the ball over on downs on back-to-back possessions. That sort of set the tune for the rest of the afternoon. On their first drive of the game, after driving 71 yards in 10 plays, Pat Ricard was stuffed short on a fourth-and-one fullback dive attempt on Cleveland’s seven yard line.

The “Gus Bus” had a 25-yard run of his own on the opening drive of the game.
Edwards played second fiddle but was again efficient with 55 rushing yards on seven carries.
