Cleveland, Ohio-Lovie Smith took no chances risking injury to any of his starters Thursday night. He kept most of them on the sideline for the Bears final preseason game against the Browns.
In their place Josh McCown and Armando Allen shined. McCown completed 20 of 29 passes for 157 yards and two touchdowns. Allen rushed for 83 yards on 16 carries, and he caught five passes for 51 more yards.
McCown's top highlight was a 30 yard touchdown pass to Dane Sanzenbacher in the first quarter. Sanzenbacher made a great one handed snatch in full stride.
