ESPN's Len Pasquarelli reports sources close to the situation say that the odds are now against Cleveland Browns QB Tim Couch (forearm) starting the regular-season opener against the visiting Kansas City Chiefs on Sept. 8. Team officials continue to insist that Couch only sustained a bruised forearm against the Green Bay Packers on Monday night. What they aren't saying is that the injury has affected some scar tissue in his right (throwing) elbow, and that is what could sideline him for the opener.
