The 'Manziel' chants have quieted just a bit in Cleveland. Josh McCown has shown promise in the Browns offense with three consecutive 300-yard games (341, 356, 457), including a career-best 457 passing yards in an overtime win against the Baltimore Ravens.
While Gary Barnidge, Isaiah Crowell, Duke Johnson and Travis Benjamin owners were left smiling, especially in PPR leagues, McCown managed to fly under the radar yet again. McCown has thrown six touchdowns and just one interception, all coming in just three games (McCown left the game in Week 1 after a strong start and missed all of their Week 2 matchup).
The Cleveland offense looks to be a legit pass-heavy attack, so the volume should continue to be there. Even with a daunting matchup against Denver in Week 6, McCown's fantasy football stock is soaring.
