BEREA, Ohio -- Brandon Weedens not worried, so he figures everyone else should chill out. Relax. The games dont really count yet. Weeden struggled and Clevelands first-team offence sputtered during Saturday nights exhibition loss to Indianapolis. Following positive performances in the Browns first two preseason games, Weedens bumpy outing brought out some here-we-go-again comments by his critics and renewed anxiety among Cleveland fans with the Sept. 8 season opener against Miami quickly approaching. Weeden, though, isnt uneasy. "I dont think there is any reason to push the panic button like a lot of people want to," Weeden said Monday before practice. "But weve got to learn from it and weve got to get better. Weve got to take the things that we didnt do very well and correct them and get better come Thursday (at Chicago) and moving forward when we play Miami." Clevelands offence didnt click against the Colts in a 27-6 loss. After completing his first six passes, Weeden, who was so impressive in the Browns first two exhibitions, was off the mark on some easy throws and forced a couple passes that should have been intercepted. The Browns didnt score on their first seven possessions, and coach Rob Chudzinski left his starters in for an extra series in the third quarter just so they could get a feel-good field goal. There were dropped passes, two critical penalties, a fumble by wide receiver Greg Little and Weeden was often under pressure as Clevelands offensive line had a tough time with Indys quickness. It didnt look good, but Weeden said it wasnt all bad and the Browns can learn from their mistakes. "There were some things we missed, thats going to be like that every game," Weeden said. "We just couldnt get any momentum going. Its tough when you get in third-and-long situations, we made it tough on ourselves. Their defence played outstanding. Their coverage was great all night. Ive watched the tape four times and all four times their coverage was really, really good. "So, you gotta give credit where credit is due. They played well and weve got to play better." Indianapolis was a playoff team last season and is at a much higher level than St. Louis or Detroit, Clevelands first two preseason opponents. The Colts may have brought the Browns back to earth, undressing them in the "dress rehearsal" for the regular season. To Weeden, thats not a bad thing. "Sometimes you need that," he said. "You need a little slap in the face to say Listen, youve got to keep continuing to grind. Its human nature to get a little ahead of yourself, but what better timing? It doesnt count in the win-loss record for the regular season. We can correct all the mistakes we made, so we knew it was not going to be perfect all the time. "Its just impossible to play 20 games throughout the regular season, perfect games. Its just not going to happen. Wed been pretty good the first two games. Now its just how do we deal with that adversity? How do we move on? Itll be a big step for us." Weeden said Clevelands simplistic game plan may have contributed to the Browns not moving the chains. And as for his "panic button" comment, Weeden said that if there is any negativity, its coming from outside Clevelands facility. "The attitude in here has been great, so its not in this room," he said. "Were excited. We saw the mistakes, but they are all fixable. That one is behind us and now were looking forward to Chicago and thats going to be here before we know it." On Sunday, Chudzinski said its possible Clevelands starters could play a few series this week against the Bears. Most NFL coaches resist putting their first-teamers on the field in the final preseason game to avoid any unnecessary injuries. But Chudzinski is more concerned that if his starters sit this week, there will be a 14-day gap between live action. "Thats a decent amount of time without playing a game," Chudzinski said. "Thats something that weighs into it." Other factors hell consider will be Clevelands choppy game in Indy as well as an inexperienced team that needs to grow. The best way to promote that is to play. Weeden would welcome a chance to work out any kinks on the field against the Bears. "If thats what he wants to do, absolutely," Weeden said. "Im a creature of habit and I like to prepare and I like to not take a ton of time off and skip anything that I normally do. I like as many reps as I can get. I feel good where I am; I feel comfortable within the offence and as far as the preparation leading up to it. "I feel good, but I wouldnt mind playing a few series if thats the direction he wants to go." ---- NOTES: Rookie LB Barkevious Mingo watched practice as he continues to recover from a bruised lung.

VAL GARDENA, Italy -- Canadas Jan Hudec captured his first World Cup medal in nearly two years, winning silver in the mens World Cup super-G Friday. Norways Aksel Lund Svindal increased his overall World Cup, while many contenders, including Manuel Osborne-Paradis of North Vancouver, B.C., skied off course or crashed in difficult conditions. Svindal had a time of one minute 35.82 seconds in a flawless run on the Saslong course to match his wins here in 2009 and last year. It was the Norwegians 24th career win and his third this season, having also won back-to-back speed races in Beaver Creek, Colorado, this month. Norway and Canada train together and share course reports during races in an arrangement that helps the teams compete with powerhouses like Austria, Switzerland and the United States. The skiers have labeled their two-nation team "Can-Norge," using the Norwegian name for Norway. "Its almost like we have a single team in two nations," Hudec said. "We totally have to feed off each others momentum and energy, and it seems to be working." Hudec, from Calgary, finished 0.58 seconds behind for his fifth career World Cup podium appearance and first since February of 2012. Adrian Theaux of France was third, 0.91 back. Erik Guay of Mont Tremblant, Que., was sixth. Hudec, 32, claimed his fifth career World Cup medal and Canadas first this season. "This is just huge," said Hudec. "Its confirmation that Ive been doing the right things and just going with it and being patient. "I knew my time in the sport wasnt up and I wouldnt have carried on skiing if I didnt believe I could do this. I feel pretty blessed that I got to be the first guy on the podium this year but its just a matter of time before Erik and Manny are there, too. We have a great history here and theres no reason we cant do something special in the downhill (Saturday)." With wins worth 100 points each, Svindal moved 125 points ahead of Austrian rival Marcel Hirscher, who does not usually race super-G, in the overall standings. American Ted Ligety remained third, 191 points back, after skiing off course on the top section. Ligety went wide and attempted to make the next gate but then pulled up when he realized it was too risky. Hudec, who opened an optometry store in Calgary this summer, said his result was proof he had been able to manage the challenging task of balancing training and launching his own business. "A lot of people were kind of unsure if I was going to be able to do the business and skiing," he said. "It was a huge pressure for me, making sure everybody on the ski side was happy but also running a business properly. "It forced me to focus 100 per cent on those two things. Today is confirmation that I was able to do a good job at both." Hudecs second-place finish marked the first podium with the mens team foor head coach Martin Rufener, who joined Alpine Canada in the summer.dddddddddddd "It shows us that we are there," Rufener said. "We needed that to confirm we are on the right track. Its great to see." Osborne-Paradis, who was also fast in the downhill training runs, went out at a time when fog seemed to blanket the top part of the course. "For Erik its great to be sixth," Rufener said. "Manny went out but hes ready for (Saturdays) downhill. Those three guys are right there knocking on the door." Hudec, Guay and Osborne-Paradis had all pre-qualified for nomination to Canadas team for the 2014 Sochi Olympic Winter Games prior to Fridays race. Marie-Michele Gagnon, of Lac-Etchemin, Que., has also pre-qualified on the womens side. Jeffrey Frisch, of Mont-Tremblant, Que., was 33rd, two spots ahead of Robbie Dixon, of Whistler, B.C. Ben Thomsen, of Invermere, B.C., finished 43rd while Conrad and Morgan Pridy of Whistler, B.C., were 45th and 47th, respectively. Svindal also moved atop the super-G standings, 91 points ahead of Patrick Kueng of Switzerland, who went off course midway down his run. Svindal was careful in areas where other racers lost control. "With all the terrain you have to very precise," he said. "You cant really (put) pressure in a lot of places. You have to (absorb) the terrain. I had a good plan and was able to execute it well." Svindal also benefited from hearing Hudecs course report before he started -- and Hudec said he had no reservations about helping the man who then beat him. "Not at all," Hudec said. "He doesnt hold back when he gives course reports and it has to be the same way for us. "I mean theres no way the Austrians would be giving course reports to the Swiss," Hudec added. "But the Norwegians and the Canadians are such like-minded mentalities that we get along well together." American Bode Miller finished eighth for his best speed result of the season, despite trouble landing the final jump, which forced Miller to collide with the last gate, catching his pole and losing precious time. With fog on the top and flat light the rest of the way down, seven of the top 30 starters did not finish and two others were disqualified for missing the final gate -- Peter Fill of Italy and Hannes Reichelt of Austria. Fill had a podium run going until he hit the last gate. Matteo Marsaglia, an Italian who finished second last year, had an ugly fall midway down after failing to land a jump and went barrelling through a gate head first then got twisted around as he slid down the mountain. But he got up and appeared to avoid serious injury. A downhill is scheduled for Saturday then the circuit moves over the Gardena pass into Alta Badia for a giant slalom on Sunday, with Ligety the overwhelming favourite after his emphatic win there last year.
