The Facts: HC Mike Pettine said he's been impressed with the 36-year old McCown, who has surprised him with how much he has left in the tank. "He's so young if you look at his game logs," Pettine told NFL Network. "That's why I made the joke the other day. He's like that car that has low mileage, kept in the garage and driven to church on Sundays by a little old lady. He's got a lot left."
Diehards Line:
Of course, as PFT's Darin Gantt notes, it didn't look that way last year, when he was 1-10 as the starter for the Buccaneers. Of course, not having an offensive line or an offensive coordinator might have complicated things there. But the Browns seem genuinely impressed with McCown, hoping they get something more like the guy who had a 109.0 passer rating with the Bears in 2013. "The first two days, Josh lit us up," veteran safety Donte Whitner said. "Before he got here, I didn't know he could do these things. He can really spin the football." And, as Gantt suggests, "If he does it every Sunday, they'll be just fine with that."
