Not if your defense keeps playing (or not playing) like this. 45 points was not enough to win today against the Browns? How many points do you think New England, Pittsburgh (x2) or St. Louis will hang on your team? 70?
Don't go reserving your tickets for the playoffs just yet.

They are... But congrats on finally beating the Bengals... First time in 5 tries.. It's expected for Browns fans to pile on, they haven't beaten the Bengals in two+ years.

You can dress it up and dance it around all you want, but the bottom line is that on September 16th, 2007, our team was better than yours.
We'll deal with January in January. But seeing how you jinxed you beloved Bungals by yacking all week, you may want to consider walking a little softer until then.

Great performance by both quarterbacks - particularly the maligned Anderson.
Excrutiatingly bad Defense - just as I suggested from the later Pre-Season games this Bengals team is set up to dissapoint hometown fans in Cincy. For all his rep of being a defensive coach Lewis' crew this year is the least effective of any squad he has put on the field. Unless things get better in a hurry this will be a long and painful season for the Bengals. Their ineptitude was disguised last week against a Baltimore Offense consisting of the walking wounded, with a propensity to give the ball up. Against the Browns yesterday it all came to the fore - no run-stopping worth a darn - ex Raven Lewis showing how you eat up a pathetic tackling team in the secondary. Coverage that was completely ineffective and transparent.
Cincy needs a huge boost in defensive rigor, hell they needed it last year and the year before.
Look for more games in which the Bengals will be forced to out-score it's opponent, or get an absurd number of turnovers to stop opposing team's drives. Sadly, given Lewis et al's reluctance to shore up the D I don't see this mess getting fixed anytime soon.
Bengals stock way, way down - look for a 0.500 finish as a "good" season, again.

Right on. Two years ago, the defense was equally ineffective yardage-wise, but got lucky with a boatload of turnovers. Last year, the turnovers dry up and the defense returns to being pretty damn bad. Same shit, different season.
There has to be a defensive coordinator out there somewhere who could put something remotely decent on the field out of this motley crew. Actually, the individual talent doesn't seem that bad, but the unit as a whole is god-awful. The sum is far, far less than the sum of the parts.
It's almost like the defensive gameplan yesterday was to sit back and force Anderson to make the throws. News-fucking-flash! Almost every single NFL quarterback can make the throws when they know the defense and have 6 seconds to set their feet and fling it. Hell, Akili Smith would've looked good against the Bengals yesterday. It's going to sting even more when the Cleveland offense returns to normalcy against Baltimore and New England in the next month.
Fuckin' Bungles.
Congrats on the win, Browns fans! :cheers:

Checking out Channel 9, man.
After the last few years of Bungles fans not shutting up about their goddamn team or my beloved Browns, well...
Allow me this opportunity to point and laugh.

Leon Hall is going to continue to get beat like a red-headed stepchild regardless of the excuses about hangovers from Monday Night Football. The guy just plain cannot cover legitimate NFL receivers.
I will get some sick pleasure out of watching Santonio torch him a couple of times this year.

Braylon had a coming out party, damn he looked good. Good for him, the Browns need it too! Winslow had a helluva game, and creates great mismatches.. even though he's a 'solja' and a total meathead sometimes, he's a damn good NFL TE. How about Jamal Lewis, "past his prime" and burning the bungals?
These weapons were where most of the browns optimism came from over the offseason, nice to finally see them put it together.
IMO, all the credit for the coming out party goes to the O Line. Job well done.
I found myself texting a michigan friend saying "Braylon is sick" and he sent back "Dude, I told you give him some time, He's a G".. I hope so.

what did the browns do give up alot of points to the Bengals. I agree the D needs some help
I used to like the browns when they had Brian Sipe and the cardiac kids, years ago when the almost made the Superbowl, oh wait the bengals have been there twice.
The bengals will be in the playoffs, maybe the Browns will but all I know is the Bengals own the Browns the last few years, not yesterday though and we will see when the browns come to Cincy if the bengals can rectify.
