Earlier on the drive, Bears cornerback Demontre Hurst was whistled for a 38-yard pass interference penalty, giving the Browns a first down at the Chicago 42.

First Quarter:

Gould misses kick

(7:43pm) - Robbie Gould's 52-yard field goal attempt sailed wide right with :46 left in the first quarter.

The kick came after quarterback David Fales was sacked by Browns linebacker Barkevious Mingo for a 13-yard loss back to the Cleveland 34.

It appeared the Bears had forced the Browns to turn the ball over on downs. On fourth-and-one from the Chicago 3, linebacker Jerry Franklin dropped fullback Ray Agnew for no gain on a pass reception. But safety M.D. Jennings was penalized for roughing the passer for leading with the crown of his helmet, giving Cleveland an automatic first down.

Quarterbacking the Browns' No. 1 offense, Brian Hoyer completed 6 of 8 passes for 69 yards on the drive.

Bears take early lead

(7:20pm) - Robbie Gould's 39-yard field goal on the game's opening drive gave the Bears a 3-0 lead over the Browns with 11:19 left in the first quarter.

The key play on the possession was a 37-yard pass interference penalty against cornerback Leon McFadden on a deep pass from David Fales to Josh Bellamy. The Bears settled for the field goal after Fales and Santonio Holmes failed to connect on third-and-four.

The Bears are not playing any of their starters in tonight's game, while the Browns are opening with their first-teamers on both sides of the ball.
