Great defensive effort and Burrow was able to connect with Chase all night long to get the Bengals their first win of the season. On to Tennessee and hopefully they’ll even their record at 2-2.
The AFC North is definitely there for the taking. All 4 defenses are solid but the offenses have flaws. Burrow is still battling his injury, the way he plays Jackson will miss some games, Pickett isn’t there yet and Cleveland is Cleveland - cursed with rooting for a QB who should have been kicked out of the league. He’s going to be punished by opposing defenses all season long.
One more thing - the uniforms Cincinnati wore last night are epic - too bad they don’t wear them every home game, the are among the best in the league.

Yep, he's hobbled but did enough and the D stepped up big time.

WTH was wrong with Higgins? He couldn’t catch anything

Higgins is on my Fantasy team, that’s what’s wrong with him. I played my sons team and he had a couple Miami players plus Chase - I lost by 60 points!

Might be biased but I think the Browns are to talented to do Browns things this year. Jim Schwartz got hired to take over a talented but underachieving Browns defensive unit this off-season, combine a great hire with under-rated great defensive pickups and this unit might be top 5….. not just in the AFC but in the Entire NFL. They’ve only allowed 431 total yards in three games and one offensive touchdown…… there’s been nothing fluky about their performance. The offense simply has to be adequate and they’ll win 11 games with that defense…… I kinda joke how nice would it be to have a healthy Baker Mayfield now? If Watson plays like he did against the Titans the Browns are a legit AFC contender, if he plays okay I think they go 11-6(Jimmy G esque) if he’s bad they’ll win 7-8 games. |

I agree... the Browns defense SHOULD have been good the past three years, they weren't.
This year, it's different. They are getting after the O-lines. They'll make the playoffs just on defense. Whether they make any noise depends entirely on whether Watson can remember how to play.

Browns are looking good - two games without allowed a TD. They need to do it on the road, I think the AFC Central is the most competitive divison.
