Titans ride defense to spoil opener for Baker Mayfield, Browns

CLEVELAND -- The Tennessee Titans gave a much-ballyhooed Cleveland Browns offense all it could handle leading to a 43-13 victory Sunday at FirstEnergy Stadium.

Outside linebacker Cameron Wake's two and a half sacks, one of which was a safety, helped spark Tennessee to an early lead after allowing Cleveland to score on the opening drive. Wake joined the 100-sack club with the safety in the second quarter.

The defense almost scored as much as Cleveland's offense. Wake's safety and Malcolm Butler's pick-six accounted for nine points with the defense holding the Browns to 13 points.
