    Week 4: Battle of Ohio Cleveland Browns (1-2) vs Cincinnati Bengals (2-1)

    Pretty big game for both teams. Cincy has been very good so far and continue to be tied for the AFCN lead with the Ravens. They are headed to Cleveland, who finally got decent NFL QB play and, lo and behold, they won a game because of the QB play.

    This looks like a defensive battle. Probably two of the best defenses in the NFL going at it. Cincy is coming off a game where they made Aaron Rodgers look ordinary, where the Browns are coming off a game where they held NFL MVP Adrian Peterson under 100 yards.

    My head says that the Bengals are going to come in and find a way to win this game, even with Andy Dalton under siege from an impressive pass rush from the Browns. My heart says that Hoyer comes home, continues his decent QB play and the Browns take out the Bengals.

    Gun to my head: Bengals win 24-21.

      I'll be rooting hard for the Browns, but I don't think they'll be able to manage against that Cincy secondary. I hope they prove me wrong.

        Bengals win 21-10 imo. Hoping Bernard continues to get more PT as he has looked great early in the year while The Law Firm hasn't.

          I wouldn't expect much from your running backs on the ground.

          The Browns have shut down every running back they have faced this year.

            I thin Bernard has his true coming out party this week and cements himself as the lead back in Cincy. I think Law Firm will be completely neutralized but Bernard can be utilized as a weapon in the pass game that I think opens things up on the ground for himself.

            Obviously the Bengals control that with how they split touches but this is the week he should take on a bigger workload IMO.

              The Browns have always been killed by RB's out of the backfield on passing plays and mobile QBs, so it would not shock me if Bernard is really effective on passing plays. But on the ground, I wouldn't expect too much from Bernard.

                I was talking about more from passing plays, but Bernard has looked great on the ground too. I think he gets around 40-50 yards on the ground and another 30-40 yards receiving and a touchdown, depending on playing time.

                  I don't think the Browns will be able to handle the Bengals.

                  My son is a Bengals fan and wife is a Browns fan. House divided. Lol

                    I think this game depends on which Andy Dalton shows up. If the good Andy shows up I think Cincinnati wins comfortably, if its bad Andy then it will probably be decided by a field goal in the closing minutes.

                      Bengals secondary is pretty beat up from the sound of things, this series has had some big shoot outs over the years, would be fun to see another this weekend.

                          Agreed. If he plays like he did against Chicago I think the Bengals win comfortably. If he does like he did against Green Bay and Pittsburgh, not so much. The secondary is also in bad shape heading into the game so it will be interesting to see how that plays out as well.

                            Go Indians! No wait... wrong sport. I'm partial to Cleveland after being subjected to 5 years of Browns games, but I just don't see it. They barely beat one of the few teams worst than them. They won't handle the Bangals. Would love to see another 50 point shootout like I did in 07.
