NO TURNOVERS:  The Browns haven't been beating themselves. They didn't commit a turnover in their past two games, and Weeden has thrown 99 consecutive passes without an interception. Weeden's last pick came in the second quarter of the opener against Miami, when he had three.
CLEVELAND (AP) — Willis McGahee has only been around for a few weeks, but the veteran running back has already figured out Cleveland's fragile sports psyche.
FEARSOME FOURSOME: Detroit's imposing defensive front with tackles Ndamukong Suh and Nick Fairley anchoring the middle is among the NFL's best. Suh may have a reputation for being a "dirty" player, but he's one of the game's premier run stuffers who can come off the edge and wreak havoc in any backfield.
Browns cornerback Joe Haden said he wouldn't mind if "Megatron" was mega-missing,Adidas Stan Smith Clearance.
"If he plays, it's always good to go against the best," Haden said. "But if he doesn't, it's a big help and big knock for their offense."
"We got this swagger going and we want to keep it going," McGahee said.
"This is a really, really good defensive front," said Browns offensive coordinator Norv Turner. "They cause a lot of problems."
For the Lions, a victory Sunday would match their entire win total from last season.
"Everybody's happy," he said. "The town's happy. We're happy."
Here are five things to look for when the Browns host the Lions:
There's some familiarity between the Lions and Browns, who played during the exhibition season. But that was merely a warmup. This is to keep their surprising seasons moving in the right direction.
RUN, RABBIT, RUN: Browns return specialist Travis Benjamin is known as "Rabbit" to his teammates, who gave him the nickname after learning he used to catch rabbits fleeing the sugar cane fields as a kid in Florida. Opponents are finding out Benjamin is as elusive as the furry animals.
It's pretty simple. When the Browns win, life is better.
The Browns may have outside linebackers Jabaal Sheard and Quentin Groves back from injury. While Sheard was out with a sprained knee, rookie Barkevious Mingo started, but could return to a reserve role.
STAFFORD'S STAFF: Johnson's injury, coupled with the loss of Nate Burleson, who broke his arm in a car accident, has decimated Detroit's receiving corps. If Johnson can't go, Cleveland's front seven could spend the afternoon taking turns sacking Stafford, dropped five times last week by the Packers.
"He's got special speed," Haden said. "I think his legs are 75 percent of his body."
NEW,Schuhe Gro?handel, IMPROVED: Cleveland's defense has taken a major leap under first-year offensive coordinator Ray Horton. After being ranked 23rd last season in total defense, the Browns enter the weekend fourth overall. The Browns also rank in the top 10 in points allowed and sacks.
"The best thing we can do is not let one loss turn into two," running back Reggie Bush said. "Everyone has to step up, we all have to do a little bit more this week."
"You've just got to find a way to take the positives and build on them," he said.

"We challenged the guys to be as good as they can be,Cheap Hockey Jerseys Official," said Horton, who spent the previous two seasons in Arizona.
Weeden went 110 passes without an interception as a rookie last season. Although he's been error-free, Browns coaches want him to quicken his release.
Johnson's status for Sunday is questionable, leaving quarterback Matthew Stafford without his most valuable asset. If Johnson's out, the Lions will need production from someone else.

Following their Oct. 3 win over Buffalo, the Browns learned that quarterback Brian Hoyer will miss the rest of the season after tearing a ligament in his right knee. It was a devastating blow for Hoyer, the Cleveland kid who guided his beloved Browns to wins over Minnesota and Cincinnati.
He returned a punt 79 yards for a touchdown against the Bills and is averaging 15.1 yards per return, second in the league.
Cleveland's defense has not allowed a 100-yard rusher or 300-yard passer.
While Hoyer's storybook season ended, Bra
