'Don't control the weather': Browns could see run-heavy game against Saints amid winter storm

BEREA, Ohio — A winter storm is rolling into Northeast Ohio ahead of Saturday's Browns game against the New Orleans Saints and with it comes the potential of wind gusts up to 60 mph and wind chills as low as -25 on Saturday."I don't control the weather ... so whatever we got to play in, strap up, put your extra sleeves on, wear your leggings, whatever you got do, but you can't be worried about that.

"If it's one of those days that you can’t even take a shotgun snap because the wind is blowing too hard, we'll adjust and adapt," said offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt."I think we have a good plan going in and contingency plans if it is one of those days where you just can’t really do anything but get under center and run the ball. We're ready for that."

The running back missed the first two practices of the week with a foot injury but on Friday returned to the fields in Berea and was cleared to play Saturday. Should he see the offense fall on his shoulders, the task might be made easier with the return of another key player. "Whatever the game is. If we’ve got to run the ball every play, if we’ve got to pass the ball every play, I just kind of try to just take things one day at a time, one play at a time and just have fun," Pocic said."I’m excited just to go play ball and just to be back and be back in the swing of things."

To keep Browns and fans safe, move to Monday?
