    Wouldn't say it favors us if we bring out the post-Alex Mack run game.

    Browns-Bengals games tend to be hard to predict. Couple that with the quality of play on most of these Thursday night games, who knows.

    I think it will be a close,low scoring game. I think we can steal this one.

    what running game?

    only way to get the ball to the RBs and be successful is through screens and over the middle.

    what'd tate have from the backfield last week? 40+ yards? that train left the station as soon as mack went down.

    Worse. Tate had 10 RUSHES for 3 Yards. Ouch!

    West was able to scratch out 50 yards in the same game though. Honestly, Tate has looked xtra terrible for 3 games. The other guys, while not doing a lot better, are still clearly out gaining him

    If that is our strategy, we may be in bad shape. The running game went into the tank with Mack. McDonald may do a better job this week. I certainly hope he does.

    we win against cincy by throwing the ball, running it to set up the pass

    I honestly don't know who's favor this is going to work out for, but lets hope we can get the run game and Brian Hoyer short passing game in control and shut that jabroni Hill down

    Ditto, but based upon his comments Pettine thinks it's us.

    I think that this Thursday night we will return to the duo of Tate and Crowell. This staff wont have an issue benching Tate. We are going to need to score more than a touch down for sure. Hill will definitely roll for 120+ on us. Hopefully without a score. Funny thing is that over the last 4 weeks Cincy has been one of the worst teams against the run. We need to figure out how to capitalize on that.

    West and Crowell?

    I suspect Tate will still be starting, but by the end of the game he won't have more carries than West.

    Yes I actually meant West and Crowell. I am thinking they may hold Tate out this Thursday

    I have a feeling Crowell may get a good bit of playing time, but West may be our best "mudder". We'll see.

    hopefully they've been putting crowell through the 'hold onto the ball' ringamaroll.

    only time i like to see the ball on the carpet is if she can't handle two and the goo.

    I'm freaking excited about this game! Kick-off will be at 2:30 a.m. Italian time, but I'm going to be in front of the TV. There's no way I can wait to see it videotaped on Friday evening. Hopefully my Browns will keep me well awake until 5:30 a.m. On Friday morning I've got a 8:30 meeting at work: my best plan is to get there on my knees but with a big smile on my face...

    Come on Browns!!!!!! After so many years I think you owe it to me... 😄

    All the way from Torino to Cleveland: GO BROWNS!!!!!!!
