Marincin has played in two NHL games so far this season with two penalty

games with the American Hockey Leagues Oklahoma City Barons this season. BEREA,
Ohio -- Brandon Weeden had a lot to prove. Before his second NFL season began,
he had to convince some teammates, a new coaching staff and front office and
many skeptical Cleveland fans he deserved to start. He desperately wanted to be
their quarterback, the guy. On Tuesday, Weedens efforts were rewarded. Browns
coach Rob Chudzinski selected Weeden as his starter, an announcement that erased
any uncertainty -- and there wasnt much -- that the second-year QB would be
behind centre for the Sept. 8 season opener against Miami. Weeden has spent the
past few months doing everything he possibly could to win the job, and he did --
fair and square. "Brandon has earned this," Chudzinski said, "and thats
extremely important to me that he did. He has gained my complete trust. He has
gained his teammates complete trust and this organizations trust. Were all
behind him and well all be behind him to support him." Weeden, who survived a
bumpy rookie season, took the news that he had beaten out veteran Jason Campbell
in typical stride. Unlike a year ago, when he was essentially anointed as
Clevelands No. 1 from the moment he was selected in the first round of the
draft, Weeden had to fight for this. He immersed himself in the playbook to
learn the Browns new system and performed at a high level during spring
practices and summer training camp. If there was any doubt, Weeden removed by
completing 18 of 25 passes for 229 yards with three touchdowns and no
interceptions in two preseason games. Case closed. "Ive taken the steps that I
needed to take to better myself," Weeden said. "But I have to keep continuing to
work, keep continuing to do the things that Ive done all along up until this
point to become that player that I want to be. Im not satisfied. I feel like I
have a lot of work to do, and thats kind of my mindset moving forward." While
there was widespread speculation outside of Clevelands locker room about whether
Weeden should remain the starter, the Browns were certain he was up to the
challenge. "I cant really say I had any doubt," wide receiver Josh Gordon said.
"It seems as though hes the guy whos been here. Hes shown improvement ever since
he got here, every day, every week, his commitment and work ethic. Hes
definnitely stepped up into that leadership role that everybody expects him to
be.dddddddddddd Hes doing a great job and were glad to have him. "Ive got 100
per cent faith in him." Chudzinski does as well. The 29-year-old Weeden has
impressed his coach with every aspect of his game -- on and off the field. "I
have been very pleased with how he has gone out," Chudzinski said. "He has taken
the opportunity, seized the opportunity and produced. So I have been pleased
from that standpoint and I think that he has garnered a lot of respect from, not
only me, not only the coaching staff and the organization but from his
teammates, as well." Weeden is just the fourth Browns quarterback -- and first
since Charlie Frye in 2007 -- to open consecutive seasons as the starter. Tim
Couch (2000-01) and Kelly Holcomb (02-03) are the others. "I knew I had to
impress the people that ultimately make the decisions," Weeden said. "Thats all
90 of us that are out here. My mindset didnt change. My mindset was getting
better focus, just doing the things that I need to do to become a better
player." Weeden now believes everyone within the Browns organization has his
back. "I do. Absolutely," he said. "I feel like I have the support from players
on up." While others wondered if he would succeed, Weeden said self-doubt was
never a factor. "Ive always put the pressure on myself that I was going to be
the guy," he said. "I was going to do everything I could to be the guy. I cant
say that I ever doubted it. My mentality was that I was again going to take the
bull by the horns and be the guy and do everything in my power to make it where
they had no choice but to name me the guy." Hes the guy. NOTES: Chudzinski said
RB Dion Lewis will likely be placed on season-ending injured reserve with a
broken leg. Lewis had surgery on Monday to repair the fibula he broke during
Thursday nights win over Detroit. ... As expected, LB Barkevious Mingo will sit
out Saturdays game at Indianapolis with a bruised lung. Chudzinski said Mingo s
