14/24 for 248 yards and 2 touchdowns

Geno Smith was just named starting QB 8 hours prior to kickoff, but he was ready to go nonetheless. The 3rd year QB got off to a great start connecting on a huge first down to new target Brandon Marshall which led to the teams first touchdown of the game. Smith's clutch moment came in the 4th quarter when converted a long 3rd down to keep the drive going and ultimately dumped off to Ivory for game clinching score.

3 sacks, 4 Tackles for Loss

The first play of the game resulted in a long 76 yard td run by Turbin off Wilkerson's edge. Wilkerson went to the side line in disgust and told the defense to wake up and get ready to play some defense. The very next Browns drive, Wilkerson made his presence felt with a huge 8 yard sack on Johnny Football. Wilkerson finished the day with 4 Tackles all of which went for losses, including 3 sacks. Wilkerson also played a huge roll in applying pressure to the Browns offense on the final drive of the game.
