Saints overcome deficit, bitter cold to beat Browns 17-10
CLEVELAND (AP) Without a roof over their heads, the Saints went outside and handled the frightful weather - and the Browns.
They're still in the playoff mix.
Alvin Kamara and Taysom Hill each had touchdown runs and New Orleans left its comfortable dome and withstood Cleveland's arctic-like conditions in a 17-10 win Saturday over the Browns, who were officially eliminated from the playoffs.
The Saints (6-9) were 0-6 in outdoor games this season before rallying to beat the Browns (6-9) in the coldest game in New Orleans history.
''I didn't want to be a part of that,'' joked Kamara, who were a scuba-like suit under his jersey. ''The elements are the elements, so you just use common sense out there. It was cold. Nothing was going to stop it from being cold. On those long runs, I was really more fired up to get back to the heat on the sideline.''
Quarterback Deshaun Watson drove Cleveland to the Saints' 15 in the final minute, but he was sacked on fourth down by Carl Granderson - one play after tight end David Njoku let a TD pass slip through his hands - with 19 seconds left, ending the Browns' postseason hopes.
''Very disappointing,'' Browns star defensive end Myles Garrett said. ''It is not where we want to be. It is not where we expected to be at the beginning of the season.''
Kamara scored on a 4-yard run late in the third quarter - set up by Daniel Sorensen's interception of Watson and 36-yard return - as the Saints, still kicking in the NFC playoff hunt, overcame a 10-0 deficit.
New Orleans came in trailing Tampa Bay by one game in the weak, wide-open NFC South. The Saints, who traveled to Cleveland a day early to acclimate to the bone-chilling weather, aren't done yet.
''We said this game was going to be about mental toughness, and the mentally tougher team would win,'' Saints coach Dennis Allen said. ''Now, Friday morning was an eye opener when we went outside, but we were prepared for this.''
Cleveland is guaranteed a losing season in coach Kevin Stefanski's third year, which was shaped by Watson's ban.
Watson had a 12-yard rushing TD but struggled to pass in the blustery conditions (15 of 31 for 135 yards) and fell to 2-2 as a starter since returning from his 11-game suspension for sexual misconduct allegations.
The Browns' porous rushing defense was a problem once again as the Saints, rotating Andy Dalton and Hill at quarterback and snapping it directly to Kamara, rolled up 152 yards on the ground.
''When you can line up and they know you're going to run the ball, and you can still do it successfully, that's big,'' said Hill, who ran for 56 yards on nine carries. ''That's what we came in wanting to do.''
The temperature was 6 degrees at kickoff, making it the coldest regular-season game in Cleveland history. Only the Browns' 1981 playoff game (1 degree) against the Oakland Raiders was worse.
It was coldest at FirstEnergy Stadium, which opened in 1999. During the first quarter, the Browns invited any fans sitting in the upper deck to move to the lower bowl and hundreds of fans accepted the offer.
The Saints had never been this cold. Their previous coldest game was 24 degrees on Dec. 26, 1993 in Philadelphia's Veterans Stadium.
Kamara's TD was the 72nd of his career, tying him with Marques Colston for the most in Saints history.
After getting a 23-yard field goal by Wil Lutz on the final play of the first half, New Orleans took the second-half kickoff and drove 67 yards for a tying TD with Hill barreling in from the 8-yard-line to make it 10-all with 9:40 left.
Watson's TD scamper gave the Browns a 7-0 lead early in the second quarter.
With Cleveland's offense unable to do anything productive, the defense came through as safety Grant Delpit intercepted a pass by Dalton that went off tight end Juwan Johnson's hands and returned it 40 yards to the Saints' 30.
Five plays later, Watson swept left on third down and scored untouched for his first rushing TD with Cleveland.
The Browns then ate up 8:44 on the clock with a drive capped by rookie Cade York's 30-yard field goal to take a 10-0 led.
INJURIES
Saints: LG Andrus Peat (leg) was carted to the locker room in the first quarter, another blow to New Orleans' offensive line after guard Cesar Ruiz went on IR earlier in the week. ... S Justin Evans (shoulder) didn't play in the second half. ... WR Jarvis Landry (ankle) didn't get to reunite with his former Cleveland native teammates after going on IR Thursday.
