Tale of the Tape - Browns @ Bengals
-
…......... Rush / G Pass / G Sack Run D / G Pass D / G Sack Give/Take Browns 161 1st 238 22nd 25th 85 6th 220 11th 3rd -3 Bengals 99 22nd 284 6th 22nd 94 9th 267 25th 4th -1 So, lookin' at numbers...both QB's get sacked a lot....and both defenses sack the QB a lot.
The Browns are #1 rushing, but had trouble last week against the Steelers...and the Bengals aren't bad against the run either.
The Bengals are weak against the pass. But alas, our passing game has not been our strong suit. Now, of course, our passing attack has something to prove. And that could go either way after this week of turmoil.
The BIG problem is that the Bengals are a highly ranked passing team and although we're ranked well against the pass...we know that our secondary has not been as good as our upgrades had us expecting. And Nixon seems to do well against us.
We're a bit of a wild card after this rather crazy week. Do we put it in the past and prove how good we are? Or do the Bengals prove how good we aren't? The season pretty much is on the line here this week. Go Browns!

And in the stats department I saw this somewhere.......
Cleveland at Cincinnati – The Browns swept the Bengals winning, 35-30, at home and 37-34 on the road last season. The Browns are 5-1 SU, 3-3 ATS in their six meetings against the Bengals. The Over is 6-0-1 during the past seven games in the series. FWIW.
