Week 15: @ St Louis (L)

Week 16: vs Arizona (W)

Week 17: vs Baltimore (L)

I see them going 3 and 13 this year and if Baltimore has a playoff spot in week 17 then they will win there going 4 and 12. Please do not change the last game because then it will be a TD about Baltimore.

I have them beating Cleveland at home, Arizona at home, and Buffalo at home which I think is a pretty reasonable prediction. If you do not remember even though they went 4-12 last season and won 3 of those 4 games at home which I can see them pretty much following this year.

Good Luck to who ever takes this.

Alright so we are doing Bengals vs Cleveland:

1) One the Bengals will be playing at home where they played very well at last year and have a advantage at. With a crowd behind you that hates the opposing team just as much as you do, the cheering is loud. The Browns lost to the Bengals at home last year for a reason.

2) Another reason is that the Bengals have the better overall offensive game. The Browns have no QB and do not act like McCoy is any good. Plus, I doubt that Palmer is just going to retire and if he does then the QB game is still equal.

Also, the Bengals have the better receiving end by a good margin with T.O., and a decent 4 others while the Browns have a only 2 good WR in Cribbs and Massaquoi. Adv. Bengals. The Bengals lead in offense by a little bit but the defense is what pulls them apart

3) Defense: The Bengals ranked 15th in overall D last year and the Browns were 22nd in the league. The Bengals also let up less rushing and passing yards per game. Out of all the things that have changed for the worse for Cinci there D is still the same and better then the Browns.

I still think the Bengals are good enough to win at home against the Browns

You are correct that Bruce would be the QB, but who says that Palmer is going to retire. He needs the money and he still wants to play the game and I think he will sooner or later.

McCoy is not experienced at all and has not shown that he is proven at all. 6 TD's and 9 INT's with a 74.5 Pass Rat. is proven all of a sudden. Do not act like he is good.

He does not have better receivers and who says that his coach is going to be better then the last crappy coach in Cleveland.

About it being both in Ohio is bull, the two cities are 240 miles apart which is a 4 hour drive, its going to be nowhere as close to fans. The Bengals have more fans as it is and will have there fans cheering hard against there Ohio rivals. The Browns fans will be a mere whisper at this game

The Browns D did not make any huge improvements and I doubt that they are going to be much better then they were last year. The Bengals actually got slightly better on D even though they went down in offense. The Bengals have the adv. there by a lot.

Last year doesn't matter but I bet the outcome will be about the same. Browns win 1 at home the Bengals win 1 at home as always.
