Joe Jurevicius didn't get into the end zone but made a couple of key third-down receptions, including a 29-yard reception on third-and-11 from the St. Louis 46 in the third quarter to help set up Edwards' second touchdown of the day.

Quarterback Marc Bulger also missed some time with an injury to his right thumb. ... The Browns have won consecutive games for the first time since 2003.
