BEREA, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns quarterback derby is heading down the homestretch. Coach Mike Pettine said Sunday he plans to name his starting quarterback shortly after the teams Aug. 18 preseason game in Washington. The winner of the competition between Brian Hoyer and rookie Johnny Manziel will start Clevelands third preseason contest -- Aug. 23 at home against the Rams -- and sit out its final game Aug. 28 against Chicago. "I wouldnt say its 1,000 per cent etched in stone, but I would like it decided before the third preseason game," Pettine said. "If we have a starter that gets a lot of time in that game, then has all the practice time after that, we feel like hell be ready to go for the opener (Sept. 7 in Pittsburgh)." Hoyer tops the Browns official depth chart, but he will split first-team snaps with 2012 Heisman Trophy winner Manziel at training camp this week. Pettine declined to say which player would start Clevelands next preseason game, a nationally televised matchup with the Redskins, calling the battle "too close to call." "If there was a clear-cut favourite at this point, it would probably mean one of them was not playing well," the first-year coach said. "Thats not the case here. I think weve got two guys that could be full-time NFL starters. It will all come down to who gives us the best chance to win. Thats the bottom line." Hoyer, who is recovering from reconstructive right knee surgery, started the Browns preseason opener Saturday in Detroit. The Northeast Ohio native completed 6 of 14 passes for 92 yards, leading the first-team offence to two field goals in three drives in a 13-12 loss. Manziel was 7 of 11 for 63 yards while playing most of the second quarter and all of the third. The No. 22 overall draft pick out of Texas A&M drove Clevelands second- and third-teamers to one field goal in four possessions. "Brian got 24 snaps, Johnny got 25, and I thought they both settled in quickly and were solid," Pettine said. "They had different supporting casts, but it was good tape for both of them. Both operated the offence efficiently, but I also thought there were plays they would like back." Neither quarterback was sacked or committed a turnover, while displaying their unique skill sets against the Lions aggressive defensive line. Manziel, who is listed at 6-foot and 210 pounds, was eager to roll out and improvise as he did in college. He scrambled five times for 26 yards, including a 16-yard gain on third-and-8, and avoided most contact. "Johnny does have a certain skill set that we hope to take advantage of," Pettine said. "If he is out there, were going to look at everything involved." The 6-2, 215-pound Hoyer stayed strong in the pocket despite pressure from Ndamukong Suh and Nick Fairley, taking several hits in his first action since tearing his anterior cruciate ligament last Oct. 3 against Buffalo. He went 3-0 as the Browns starter before the injury. All things being equal, general manager Ray Farmer and Pettine have said they would prefer starting the season with a veteran -- like sixth-year pro Hoyer -- under centre. It remains to be seen if it is a close call when they have to make a decision on the starter. "Johnny has made some improvement, a lot of improvement since minicamp," Pettine said. "As weve said before, it was him against the playbook, and hes got a pretty firm grasp of it. Hes really gone from one extreme to another. "Brian, on the other hand, has been solid all the way through. Its not going to be an easy choice, but were confident that well make the right one." NOTES: Pro Bowl TE Jordan Cameron (shoulder) and rookie CB Justin Gilbert (groin) sat out the Lions game, but Pettine said both could have played if it was the regular season.

Argentina lost all six of its matches in the recent Rugby Championship, has just fired its coach and is missing its captain and one world-class player. Surely an easy home win for the English on Saturday, then? Not according to captain Chris Robshaw. "As soon as you take a team like Argentina lightly, youre in a world of trouble," Robshaw said. Robshaws note of caution belies the increasing sense of assuredness and confidence that has spread through Englands ranks in Lancasters near two years in charge. Stretching back to the victory over New Zealand in December 2012, England has won eight of its last nine internationals -- a run that takes in back-to-back successes in a short tour of Argentina last summer, earned without its British and Irish Lions contingent. It has won its last five home games. Victories over southern hemisphere opposition used to be rare and extremely hard-earned. Yet, last Saturday, the English often laboured against Australia in their first international of the season but still ran out 20-13 winners. "Weve started this series fantastically and we need to kick on," Robshaw said. "We got some huge momentum, beating Australia for the first time myself. We know now what it takes to beat one of the southern hemisphere sides." Argentina isnt so buoyant. Reeling from a chastening Rugby Championship where they shipped an average of more than 37 points a game, the Pumas have replaced coach Santiago Phelan with Daniel Hourcade, seen iconic centre Felipe Contepomi retire and both captain Juan Martin Fernandez Lobbe and Juan Martin Hernandez succumb to injuries that forced them out of the entire autumn series. Argentina hasnt beaten a major ruugby nation since winning in Wales on November 2012 but Juan Manuel Leguizamon, who will captain the team in place of Fernandez Lobbe, isnt giving up hope.dddddddddddd "The team is very tight and our objectives are clear. People are talking about (Argentinas struggles), but we dont care, Leguizamon said. "We are all professional players and we must adapt ourselves as quickly as possible to the new system." As ever in games involving Argentina, one of the most powerful scrummaging units around, the front-row battle will be key. England has overhauled its entire front three, bringing in fiery hooker Dylan Hartley for Tom Youngs and props Joe Marler and David Wilson for Mako Vunipola, who is injured, and Dan Cole. Centers Joel Tomkins and Billy Twelvetrees struggled against Australia but are retained as the midfield pairing with first-choice Brad Barritt and Manu Tuilagi still injured. Ben Foden comes in for Marland Yarde on the wing, while lock Geoff Parling has recovered from the effects of concussion and is on the bench. ------ Lineups: England: Mike Brown, Chris Ashton, Joel Tomkins, Billy Twelvetrees, Ben Foden, Owen Farrell, Lee Dickson, Billy Vunipola, Chris Robshaw (captain), Tom Wood, Courtney Lawes, Joe Launchbury, David Wilson, Dylan Hartley, Joe Marler. Reserves: Tom Youngs, Alex Corbisiero, Dan Cole, Geoff Parling, Ben Morgan, Ben Youngs, Toby Flood, Alex Goode.
