* Doesn't matter what happens in the 1st QTR - whether it's a 3-and-out or a turnover - the GAME IS NOT OVER until the end of the 4th QTR (or OT).
* Similarly, a 3 point, 7 point, 10 point or even 14 point 1st half deficit is NOT insurmountable (so again, the game is NOT over)
* No defense, not even the greatest ones in NFL history ever held opposing teams to 0 yards rushing and 0 yards passing. The Browns will move the ball. How much they do is on the defense (not the offense, btw) and how well they're playing but they will NEVER keep the other team from gaining SOME yards.
Anything else that I usually say during the course of the GameDay thread that I'm forgetting?
And, of course, anyone is free to take up my mantle of countering the doom-and-gloomers in the GameDay thread on Sunday.
Don't forget that if BUrrow gets hit he will either never survive the season or will refuse to play for the Bengals when his first contract is up.
