even wk 16

why does that matter?
The jets only play on even numbered weeks. We have them on an even numbered week, so a little bit worried...
And the bengals is a very winnable game. They're pretty banged up, but it's still a tough divisional game on the road.

And the browns had lost 11 straight to Ravens, who were 6-0 on games after bye week with flacon/harbaugh. Trends are made to be broken.

I love it....this is what a win over a rival does, it renews optimism. Too bad we sucked in the second half vs. the Lions, that game might haunt us.
I do think we can hang around long enough to steal a win in Cincy, that would make the last 6 games so much fun. Gresham & Bernard need to be shut down by our D for us to have a chance.

A lot of football left to play. As long as Weeden doesn't play, we could realistically win out. We already beat Cincy, so we can do it again, Pittsburgh?... those games should be fun this year, but I'll NEVER consider those games as wins until the clock says 0:00 and we're up. Jacksonville... we better win. New England is not a rock-solid team especially their D, and if we can put pressure on Brady we can win. Chicago hasn't been great, but they'll be tougher when we face them b/c of Cutler being back. New York is an away game, which isn't good, but I think our D can cause fits for Geno.
Really I wouldn't be shocked if we win 5 and finish 9-7, and I wouldn't be shocked if we win 2 and finish 6-10... Hard to tell right now, but this game was a major momentum booster, and hopefully they come out swinging against Cincy after the bye week b/c that game will be HUGE...

Cincinnati- We beat them once, we can beat them again. It wasn't even Hoyer that won us that game, it was the defense completely shutting them down and not allowing any TDs. Plus with Geno Atkins out for the year it will make life easier for the interior of our OL.
Pittsburgh x2- They are a mess but because they are the Steelers we can never count them out. Their OL is constantly hurt so 5+ sacks a game is totally within the realm of possibility.
Jacksonsville- We should beat them but "any given Sunday". Only thing I'm worried about is MJD having some freak good game and burning us.
New England- This will be tough because we are playing at Gillete Stadium. I still think we can pull it off. Gronk will create a mismatch no matter who he is on. Robertson has shown nice speed, maybe he can hang with him?
Chicago- They are such a hot and cold team. Never know what they are going to do. Jay Cutler will be back so that will put more emphasis on covering not only Brandon Marshall but also Alshon Jeffrey. Haden will probably mirror Marshall the entire game so Skrine is going to have to play exceptional. The only thing I fear about their Defense is their ability to create take-aways, Campbell will have to play it smart to give us a chance.
NY Jets- One of the biggest surprises of the year for me. I'm not worried about Geno and the rest of the offense, I am worried about their Defense. I watched some of their game against the Saints yesterday and they looked pretty good. Definitely a Defensive game.
Overall I see us going somewhere between 4-2 to 3-3.

i want us to run the table.

After the bye, we play the Bengals, right? If we get to 5-5 and the Bengals (off injuries) are 6-5, things get really interesting.

If cincy collapses for the remainder of the season we have a shot at making the sixth seed wild card.

The Ben-gals are always a tough game no matter how good either team is any particular point of time.
but it sure would be sweet to sweep the squeelers.

sweep the squelers and the bungles making us 5-1 in the division.

Bengals at Ravens this week. Ravens win at home:
Cincy 6-4
Browns 4-5
Ravens 4-5
Next week, We go to Cincy, Ravens on road at Bears. If we pull off the upset and Bears win at home:
Cincy 6-5
Browns 5-5
Ravens 4-6
The next week, Bungles have a bye, We host the Steelers, Ravens host jets. Home teams hold serve ...
Browns 6-5
Cincy 6-5
Ravens 5-6
First place by Thanksgiving.
Any way you look at it, we beat Cincy, then we are just one Bungle loss from being able to control our own destiny.
As for the Second Wild Card ... very much an option:
Jets 5-4
Titans 4-4
Dolphins 4-4
Chargers 4-4
Browns 4-5
None of those teams ahead of us scare me, and we can take out the Jets ourselves.
