It's been a 50/50 game the past 2 years.Terry_Tate;1270850 wrote:Seriously though, this is a 50/50 game. Logic says the Bengals should win, but I have my doubts. Haden being out is probably the difference, because I don't think Weeden will be that inept again and the Browns will put up 17ish points. Green gets 100 and a score and the Bengals win 20-17 on a last minute field goal.
I'll also be one of the 12 people in the stands so look for me!!!

Browns are a bad matchup for the benagls. That said with Haden out I expect big things out of green. I'll say 17-3 bengals win.

Yep, which is why I think it will be one again. I'm a Bengals fan but I'm not sure if they are good enough to pencil in wins against teams with a stingy defense like Cleveland. Haden being out really could be the difference between a W and L for Cleveland.

Bengals have lost LB Thomas Howard for the season... Huge loss on the defense

I wouldn't be surprised if either team won. But I would be if it was a lopsided game.

Burfict and his 5.0+ forty has some big shoes to fill. Howard is pretty fast (4.5, I believe).Mulva;1271149 wrote:I will never understand why no team took a late-round flyer on him in the draft.

I will be in attendance rooting on the bengals. My career record for attending bengals games is 7-1-1 the loss coming on a last second matt stover field goal after jeff blake led a miraculous forth quarter comeback. Take the bengals to win this one much like last years game in cincy.

Fun fact: Brandon Weeden was 0-for-10 in passes more than 10 yards last week. That's my kind of QB!

If that happened, I'd personally start the Tyrann Mathieu campaign/countdown for the Bengals...

No, he's got it right. 10 field goals and a pick 6. How dare you not give the defense some credit.

Nope 6 passing tds by weeden and once Dawson misses his 5th extra point in a row we put weeden back there for the 6th and he makes it.Mulva;1272434 wrote:11 field goals and 2 safeties. Amateurs.

Browns running game needs to take advantage of Vontaze being out there.

Got a bad feeling about this one. 19-17 Browns. Dawson last second Fg.

This could go either way....close browns win or a bengals blowout.
I think the Browns ride the legs of Richardson and win this one 20-17 (and we will still be waiting for a Weeden td pass)
I think Richardson will get a td run and Cribbs will finally get a return score then mr reliable gets his usual 2 fg's

Tony Dumassi is reporting that if weeden struggles, McCoy will start the second half
