Lions, John Morton get the last laugh vs. Browns after media spat

The Cleveland Browns hadn't seen a run game like the Detroit Lions'. The Lions hadn't seen a defensive front like the Browns'. When the game clock hit zero, it was offensive coordinator John Morton and his run game that walked away victorious.

It wasn't pretty by any stretch, but in a battle against one of the best offenses and one of the best defenses, the Lions won 34-10. The Lions' run game was one of the biggest reasons why.

Entering Sunday, the Browns' defense led all of football in rushing yards allowed per game with 57.
