Bengals Outlast Browns

Week two has come and gone and the Browns remain without a victory.  The team dropped this week's game to the Cincinnati Bengals 34-27.

The game didn't start off too hot for the Brownies giving up a punt return for touchdown to Adam Pacman Jones.  The TD gave the Bengals an early 7-0 lead and a lead that they would never relinquish.

The Bengals were led offensively by the ginger ninja, Andy Dalton.  Dalton completed 24 of 31 passes, slinging 3 TDs and 1 INT.  He picked apart the Browns' defense like it was nothing.  Joe Haden was suspended by the NFL and his absence was evident.  The Browns only gave up 17 points in week one as opposed to 34 in week two.  Brandon Tate, AJ Green and Andre Hawkins hauled in Dalton's 3 touchdown passes.

Dalton's counterpart, Brandon Weeden, who struggled in week one had a much better showing in week two.  The rookie quarterback looked much more comfortable in the pocket and did not throw a single interception.  Weeden completed 26 of 37 passess for 322 yards and tossed two touchdowns in the process.

Another bright spot for the Browns was rookie running back Trent Richardson.  One word for you Browns fans...STUD.  Richardson rushed for 109 yards and one touchdown and averaged 5.7 yards per carry.  Not to mention he had a receiving touchdown as well...


The Browns will head back out on to the field in week three at home against the Bills (1-1).  Game time is 1 pm.

Prediction:  Browns 24   Bills 27

Go Browns...
