Howie Long on NFL return amid coronavirus: 'America was really anxious'

Fox NFL Sunday Analyst Howie Long discusses the return of football as the season nears its second week.

Baker Mayfield and Nick Chubb helped lead the Cleveland Browns to their first victory of the 2020 season, holding off the Cincinnati Bengals 35-30.

Mayfield and Chubb started off the game hot. Chubb put the Browns on top in the first quarter with an 11-yard touchdown run. Mayfield would then connect with Odell Beckham Jr. for a 43-yard touchdown pass, in what appeared to be a vintage play from both players.

After a Bengals touchdown, the Browns let Kareem Hunt run through the Cincinnati defense.

Hunt capped off a six-play, 75-yard drive with a score from the goal line to keep Cleveland ahead.

The Browns would hold off the Bengals to pick up their first win of the season and avoid starting the season 0-2.
