Just a ton of confidence from all the Browns fans on here. I understand that my Bengals are going to be down, but it is not like we are heading to Lambeau and playing the champs. The Bengals are going to be very solid against the run and I think that is the Browns biggest strength. If the Bengals establish a run game, force McCoy to beat them, and don't screw up bad in the kicking game, this will be a battle into the fourth.

20-17 Bengals

Correct, they are playing where the best fans in the league are.

Sorry, passing the ball is now the Browns biggest strength. They will use the pass to set up the run.

I wish they'd bring back the orange pants. With the brown jersey, those were sharp, imo.

Agreed, all whites are boring. I like the brown pants as well. I also liked the Orange jerseys as well, wouldnt mind those seeing a resurgance.

+1, along with the Cleveland Brownie in the middle of the field. I'm telling you all, that elf brought swagger to those Cleveland teams. It would do the same for the modern era Browns.

You would think Brownie adds swagger.

Go fuck yourself! I understand a couple of preseason wins have you all hard about the Browns, but they won't be much better than Cincy. And if Colt McCoy and the passing game are the Browns' strength, then the Bengals won't have to worry about finishing last in the North.

Is this the thread where I have to announce my Bengals fandom because just in case they do something good I don't get called a bandwagon fan?

If the weather is bad on Sunday then the final score could be a little closer...depends on who can get it done in the trenches and who can hold onto the ball.

Have you been watching? The Bengals are pretty awful. I don't see Cincy winning more than 3 games....if that. At least Cleveland has SOME bright spots....I think they could go anywhere from 7-9 Ws.

Browns fans always love their team before they have played a game then reality sets in. The best they do is 8-8 and that's if everything goes right will probably be more like 6-10 with wins over the bengals dolphins titans 49ers raiders seahawks. Bengals could go 9-7 if everything goes right but will probably finish 7-9 with wins over the browns Broncos 49ers Bills jaguars Seahawks titans. Both teems start the season with easy games but close extremely tough

Unlike the Bengals fans that don't love their team until they win some games.

The Bengals will win 9 games this season? I'm not so sure about that...I'll give you maybe 5 or 6 at the most for this year...

bengals suck this year. Andy Dalton looks like a young Jordan Palmer. You guys will 2 games at the most. Brownies will be 10-6. Want to place a bet on your bengals or are your balls smaller than your football knowledge?

Bengals winning 9 games is like saying the Panthers will win 9 games. Think about that artard. And also, we always like our team because that's what true fans are supposed to do. I know it's hard having the worst organization in sports, but keep trying

10-6 w/ that gauntlet of a schedule at the end? Colt will be lucky to make it out alive.

This is exactly why I had to come on here and state I was a Bengals fan. Browns fans think if we don't have a ten page discussion about signing the backup kicker out of Tulsa then you are a bandwagon fan.

When did the Browns have 'a couple of preseason wins?' They went 1-3 in the preseason. It was the 1st team that was the bright spot.

I would be stoked w/ an 8-8 season for the Browns. Health will be paramount in their success.

You might be a rarity. Most Bengals fans I know couldn't give a fuck if Mike Brown moved them out of Cincy. Cincinnati is CLEARLY a baseball town.
