Last year's Thursday night game against the Browns was terrible, so along with prepping, maybe some of the guys can remember how bad that loss was last year -- and avenge it!
Marvin said as much in his presser today, how they used the bye week to look at Cleveland since they'd be on the short week. Hopefully the hay's in the barn.

I don't know how or why, but they always do.
I know what you're saying, Fred, and I'd usually agree. But, this game just has a different vibe to it. I don't believe it's going to be like the Bears game in '09 or that Jets game a season or two ago, but I expect them to come out and workman-like control this game from start to finish. My ony fear is some injury clouding the night.

From Rotoworld:
Speaking Monday, Browns coach Mike Pettine declined to guarantee that Josh McCown (ribs) will be ready for Thursday's game against the Bengals.
"(He's) sore, it’s difficult this week given that it’s a short week," Pettine said. "He’ll be day to day." McCown has played through myriad injuries this season, but sounds no better than 50-50 to start against Cincinnati. Nov 2 - 1:37 PM
So, it's almost Johnny Fartball time, eh? Cool.
