Yes this is true. After the Browns 31-27 win over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, Brian Hoyer became the only of the 19 guys to start a game for the Browns to actually have a winning record. Although that feat may only last a week, what a great week to get that win. This was a tough week as a fan, seeing the way that the beginnings of "Blow For Bridgewater" were shaping up I never expected a win.
Instead guys like Josh Gordon, Jordan Cameron stepped in and changed this offense's fortune. And as of now Chud has not committed to Hoyer for anymore games, but he would be a fool to sit him now.
And while this win has probably dampened the chances of having a #1 overall pick next year, I think it is also important to note that the Vikings team that we just beat had three first round selections in last years draft, and it doesn't seem to be working out too well for them right now.
Defensively I think the team was solid, the offense sputtered heavily in the 2nd half and left the unit on the field far too much. And they kept the team in the ballgame, allowing for Hoyer to lead a 4th quarter game winning drive (something Brandon Weeden has yet to do).
Joining Hoyer, Gordon, and Cameron was Buster Skrine and John Hughes putting up the best games of their young careers. Great job Browns, way to get yourselves out of the winless column.
