Bailey Zappe becomes the 40th QB to start for the Browns since 1999, showcasing both promise and limitations.
The Cleveland Browns continued their history of quarterback carousel, with Bailey Zappe becoming the 40th different QB to start for them since their return in 1999. Zappe's performance reminded some observers of Connor Shaw's lone regular season start for the Browns back in 2014. In this game, the Browns alternated between Zappe and Dorian Thompson-Robinson (DTR) in the first half.
Zappe started strong with a 21-yard completion to Jordan Aikens, but his second pass, a risky lateral, was intercepted for a Baltimore touchdown. Zappe showed decent arm strength and mobility, but ultimately looked like a third-string quarterback. DTR had limited action, while the Browns defense played well in the first half
