Following last week's loss against Indianapolis, the Browns lost QB Derek Anderson for the rest of the season to a torn MCL and TE Kellen Winslow for this week with a high ankle sprain.
An MRI taken Monday revealed Anderson tore the medial collateral ligament when he was sacked in the final minutes of Cleveland's 10-6 loss to the Colts. Anderson, making his first start since Nov. 2 after being benched for Quinn, will not need surgery. He will be placed in a brace and will need four to six weeks to recover.Quinn, too, is done for the season with a finger injury. He has not yet decided whether to have surgery on his broken right index finger, which he hurt on Nov. 17 at Buffalo.
The injuries to their top two QBs means the Browns (4-8) will start third-stringer Ken Dorsey on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans (11-1). Return specialist Joshua Cribbs, who played quarterback at Kent State, will serve as Dorsey's backup unless the Browns can sign a veteran quarterback in the next few days.
Unfortunately, Dorsey won't have won of his favorite targets as tight end Kellen Winslow will also sit out this week after sustaining a high ankle sprain on Sunday.Winslow, who played in college with Dorsey, will be fitted with a walking boot for one week, but it's still too early to determine if he'll play again this season.
Well, I'm not going to say we're going to win this Sunday, but just get your credit cards and wallets ready to pay for some AFC South champions gear.
