Again, here is the problem for Cleveland, NO RUNNING YARDS
Against Arizona, Crowell rushed for 14 yards, Turbin rushed for 3 yards, Duke Johnson had 3 yards for only 20 yards rushing......Now the quarterback McCown scramble for 18 yards and Manziel gained 1 yards. That is 19 yards scrambling for their QB's.....39 yards total, but how awful is Clevelands running game. Was this once the city that had Motley and Jim Brown and Leroy Kelly ?
The Browns can NOT run the football and that will not improve against the Bengals of Atkins and Company. I do not care who starts at quarterback. With no running game, Bengals can stuff the run and be looking for the pass most of the game, and tee of on their QB's. When you have no running game, your QB's are in for a beating. If you have to pass all game, it is easy to defend and quarterbacks take a beating.
If Bengals can run the ball and Browns can't, yes, it could be 30 or 40 to 0 win for Bengals in Prime Time, showing off their unbeaten team in THE JUNGLE where Bengals have been tough the last few years. ...If the Browns runners only gain 20 yards, they are in for a real beating. I'm hoping this is a game where Bengals can be way ahead at the end of 3rd quarter, and can show they can run, run and run, no passing in the 4th quarter as Super Bowl type teams can do, as Patriots and Steelers have ran it up our rear ends in their Super Bowl years. Wear a team down and then go Woody Hayes on them late. Hue Jackson should know the Raiders loved to pass, but with a lead would run the ball all 4th quarter in their Super Bowl years. There is nothing like running and bulldozing a team off the field, giving up no stupid interceptions or stopping the clock with incomplete passes.
Oh, Andre Smith is OUT......Dunlap and Maualuga are questionable after being in limited practice. That is better than out or doubtful.....I hope Bengals clock the Browns and everybody is healthy for a much harder Houston game and that Texan Defense of Watt and Company.
