Second Half Open Thread: Cleveland Browns @ Cincinnati Bengals
Cincinnati's 73rd meeting against the Cleveland Browns started as they always do. Close. The Bengals defense started the game, allowing only one first down on Cleveland's first two possessions. The Bengals offense did move the ball for the game's opening score, going 61 yards on 14 plays in 8:48 taking a 3-0 lead. Both teams exchanged punts twice before Cincinnati ran an 11 play, 63 yard touchdown drive to take a 10-0 lead with over a minute left in the first half.
After the defense forced a three-and-out with under 30 seconds left in the half, the Bengals call a timeout. After an incomplete and sack, Palmer rolls out left on third-and-19 when Shaun Rogers is called for a personal flag after tackling Palmer on a horse-collar. Shayne Graham converts a 53-yard field goal and the Bengals take a 13-0 lead into half time.
Cincinnati's passing offense was largely been negated by a good Browns pass rush, poor protection by the offensive line and Carson Palmer feeling antsy in the pocket early in the game. Defensively, the Bengals are playing strong, only allowing 49 yards on Cleveland's first three possessions, all of which ended in punts. They've forced five straight punts, including three three-and-outs. So far the defense and the Bengals rushing offense are the stories of the game.

A RB already has possession.
So he doesn’t need to establish that. Only passes need to have established possession, which includes having control of the football on the way down.

Bratkowski’s conservatism might be appropriate here…
one thing to remember is that Lewis asked for the run run pass formula. Brat’s natural game plan is pass run pass (punt).

I just don't get Brat's game plans
This team has the tools to have a much more explosive offense than it does
I guess I'm just a worrier, that's why my friends call me whiskers
RE:
Honestly, I’m not sure about that right now. When we try to throw, Palmer is hurrying his throws. Deeper routes can’t develop. You just get the sense that this offensive line is more geared to a power rushing offense, rather than pass protection.

which is what Lewis wanted. It is really his type of football team. We need to do like the Titans and get ourself a RB who can turn every touch into a TD

Quinn can’t accidentally hit his own receivers, much less accidentally throw it to the Bengals.

Looks like a win for our Boys but
Bengals realy need to start scoring points. It’s very good that we can run so well-stats are nice and eats up clock keeping our defense sharp but like in Oakland it’s going to catch up with us.
Nice throw.

Still waiting for the Big Ten to join the 21st century and have a conference championship game.
Those bastards are one of the biggest BCS supporters.
What are you talking about?
The Buckeyes are really the only team worthy of a BCS spot every year. Some teams come close, but not close enough. So really, the proper team from the Big Ten does go to the BCS. ;)
