NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Cleveland quarterback Cody Kessler stood at the podium talking about the best game of his very short NFL career and started tearing up.Its been an emotional couple of weeks for the rookie.Kesslers younger brother wound up hospitalized with a racing heartbeat days before the quarterback was knocked out of last weeks 33-13 loss to the New England Patriots with an injured chest . Then Kessler learned his great-grandmother had died, a woman he considered a second mother.The third-round pick out of Southern California got a break Sunday on the football field where he threw for a career-high 336 yards in his fourth start, nearly rallying the Browns before losing 28-26 to the Tennessee Titans.Kessler became only the third Browns rookie to throw for at least 300 yards, second only to Brandon Weedens 364 yards passing Dec. 2, 2012, at Oakland.Tennessee sacked Kessler six times and hit him five other times, but Kessler never flinched as he kept trying to rally the winless Browns (0-6).Unless they force me to stay out like they did last week, Im not coming out, Kessler said. It was a little painful, but at the same time you want to do it for the guys as well. Its not for myself, its for the guys around me.Talking to reporters after the game, Kessler said he couldnt come out of a game, not with his brother, Dylan, dealing with a heart condition that hospitalized him before the Patriots game.The condition will keep his brother from playing high school football or much of anything for two months and hell be wearing a heart monitor.Kesslers great-grandmother died a week ago, a woman he was so close with that the quarterback considered her as another mother.Its stuff that you cant control and youve just got to move on, Kessler said as he choked up and then walked out of the interview room.The Browns are off to their worst start since 1999 when they lost their first seven as an expansion franchise. Kessler, their third quarterback to start and among five to play already, gave them a chance late at an improbable rally.He threw two touchdown passes to Terrelle Pryor Sr., the second with 2:07 left, before guiding a nine-play drive for another TD that set up a second onside kick.Hes battling his butt off out there, Browns left tackle Joe Thomas said. There were a couple times where he took some really big hits scrambling on fourth down trying to make plays and youre thinking, `Wow, he wont be able to get up from that, and (he) pops right back up and gets right back in the huddle like nothing happened. And thats really admirable.Kessler had a 105.3 passer rating while driving the Browns on a 75-yard drive and a 62-yard drive to rally Cleveland after trailing 28-13. Kessler also threw incomplete under pressure on a 2-point conversion.Still, Cleveland coach Hue Jackson said the rookie played hard.He gave us a chance to win, to be in the game, Jackson said.Pryor made it clear he loves playing with Kessler and the rookies passion, especially with all the hits the quarterback took.Hes a warrior, Pryor said. Thats what pushes us all. I took a little hit as well and it makes you just keep pushing. He was getting creamed, man, and he just got up and kept fighting. The kid has unbelievable heart.

SPARTA, Ky. -- Being good all night long at Kentucky Speedway helped Kyle Busch get the luck he needed for another impressive finish.Busch led 185 laps and caught a huge break before surviving a final restart to win Fridays 300-mile NASCAR Xfinity Series race for his first victory on the 1.5-mile tri-oval since 2004.It feels good to score that victory, said Busch, who entered with five top-5s and 200 laps led here. Been a long time since I got a win.The defending Sprint Cup Series champion needed overtime to get the win in his No. 18 Toyota, with the race going one circuit past its scheduled 200 laps after a late caution. Busch then outdueled Joe Gibbs Racing teammate Daniel Suarez and Austin Dillon in a three-wide restart and went on to win by .455 seconds.Busch benefited from a late mistake by Erik Jones. He passed Busch for the lead after a Lap 174 restart just before the fourth yellow, but he inadvertently shut off his car and fell to third as a penalty for failing to keep up with the pace car.Dillon was second in a Chevy, with Suarez third in a Toyota and Jones fourth in a Toyota.I wasnt trying to save fuel, I was doing something else and trying to get the best restart I could and unfortunately I hit the wrong button, Jones said.One night after his Camping World Truck Seriees team became that series winningest outfit, the Xfinity career wins leader earned his fifth victory and ninth top-10 this season.dddddddddddd For a while the question was whether anybody would get close to Busch.After claiming the pole with a speed of 187.318 mph, Busch set his own groove and pace on the resurfaced, reconfigured track and had all the grip he needed after a full day of Cup practice. He led six times after starting on the pole.Only on that one restart did Busch show vulnerability as Jones made a gutsy pass on the outside. Jones never got the chance to put room between him and Busch as Ray Black Jr.?quickly spun out to draw the yellow flag.Jones No. 20 car then appeared to stall during the caution, creating the penalty and a turn of events that handed the lead to Busch for good.I didnt think the outside would carry the speed as much as the inside, and Erik Jones proved me wrong, Busch said. I certainly learned from that, and when he had his problems not being able to get the car re-fired, it just kind of handed the race back to us, and from there I chose to restart the race on the outside from there on out. Thats what won us the race. ' ' '
