Another sub-200 yard passing game Watson 21 of 37 passes for 196 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 21-15 loss to the Giants. He also threw a two-point conversion, rushed four times for 26 yards and fumbled twice... Impact Watson threw a 24-yard touchdown pass to Amari Cooper immediately after the Giants fumbled the opening kickoff, but Cleveland's next points didn't come until there was 11:33 left in the fourth quarter, when Watson tossed a six-yard touchdown pass to Cooper and added a two-point conversion to Jerry Jeudy. Watson finished the first half with only 67 passing yards and missed his first six throws after halftime before heating up to get the Browns back into the game, only to cool down again down the stretch as Cleveland's last two drives ended in turnovers on downs without a first down. After being sacked a career-high eight times by the Giants, Watson will hope to get better protection in Week 4 against the Raiders.
