    Defensive coordinator Rob Ryan believes that Cleveland's defense will be exciting this season. "I know one thing, we'll be an attacking defense and an exciting defense," Ryan said. "I've had success coaching both in college and the pros, and I can tell you that my guys always play hard. They play like (heck). The number of times my guys have quit I can count on one hand. They're going to fight and play just like the people in Cleveland would want us to." The Browns base defense will be a 3-4, but Ryan said he'll use some of the famed 46 scheme his dad made famous. "Eric (Mangini, head coach) is a huge fan of the 46," he said. "He was the one who got them to run it in New England."
