By the Numbers Jaguars Week 2

The Browns held off the Jaguars for an 18-13 win on Sunday as Cleveland improves to 1-1 on the season.

Jacksonville had the chance to win with under 90 seconds remaining, but the Cleveland defense prevented the Jaguars from finding the end zone.

Here are 10 key stats from Sunday's win.

2 – After getting sacked six times and hit an additional 11 in the Week 1 loss, QB Deshaun Watson was sacked just twice and hit eight times by the Jaguars.

3 – Browns pass catchers combined for three explosive plays, with WR Jerry Jeudy hauling in two 20-plus-yard receptions and WR Elijah Moore catching one.

4 – The Browns defense had four sacks on Sunday, with LB Jordan Hicks, DE Myles Garrett, DT Quinton Jefferson and DE Alex Wright all recording sacks. Wright's sack was one of the most impactful, as he hit QB Trevor Lawrence in the end zone for a safety with less than two minutes left in the game.

9 – The Browns had nine tackles for loss on Sunday, including two each from LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah and S Grant Delpit. Owusu-Koramoah led the team in total tackles with seven.

10 – K Dustin Hopkins was 3-of-3 on field goal attempts and made his only extra point attempt, scoring a total of 10 points for Cleveland. Hopkins hit field goals from 38, 44 and 53 yards.

13 – While they escaped Jacksonville with the win, Cleveland committed 13 penalties for a total loss of 100 yards. Penalties hurt the Browns on their penultimate drive of the game, as the team tallied four and had to punt despite at one point reaching field goal position.

16 – Lawrence had just 16 passing yards in the first half – a career low. Lawrence finished the game with 220 passing yards.

39 – P Corey Bojorquez finished with five punts for 218 total yards. However, the most important punt of the day was a 39-yarder, perfectly placed just outside of the Cleveland end zone to set up Wright's safety in the final two minutes of the game.

64 – A week after Browns running backs combined for just 54 rushing yards, RB Jerome Ford led the Browns in rushing yards with 64 on seven carries. RB D'Onta Foreman added 42 rushing yards on 14 carries.

100 – The Browns had a 100 percent success rate on their three fourth down attempts, with QB Jameis Winston running the quarterback sneak on two and Ford running for 36 yards on the other.
