Cleveland Browns vs. Miami Dolphins: How to watch, listen to the game
By Thomas Moore
The Cleveland Browns will face the Miami Dolphins today in a matchup of winless teams. Here is how you can watch or listen to today’s game.
The Cleveland Browns head to Florida for a tilt with the Miami Dolphins this afternoon at Hard Rock Stadium.
Both the Browns and the Dolphins enter the game at 0-2.
The storyline, as it always seems to be with the Browns, is focused on the quarterback as for the third consecutive week – and fifth dating back to last season – Cleveland will roll out a new starting quarterback.
This week it will be rookie Cody Kessler making his NFL debut and looking to do something that no quarterback drafted by the Browns has done since 1999 – win his first game.
“I have kind of just been sticking to myself and working hard and staying in my playbook and watching film,” Kessler said of the opportunity. “You get opportunities at different times, and for me, I have to prepare and continue to prepare throughout this week. I want to give myself the best chance to take advantage of this opportunity this weekend.
“It is definitely a long process, definitely a long week, but for me, I’m just staying focused on what I can control. That is how I prepare and how I perform.”
