Cincinnati 49 Cleveland 13 – What else needs to be said? Cincinnati is one of the best teams in the NFL right now. The Bengals have a high-powered offense, while the browns secondary is sitting on the sideline with sweats on. Johnny Manziel does a little better than the horrific loss at Cincy last year, but not enough to win this one.

Bengals 44 Browns 13 – Get use to scores like this for the remainder of the season. The Browns will put up a fight for about 15 minutes, then wilt as the Bengals go back in the memory banks to last season when they were embarrassed at home by the Browns on a Thursday night. What a difference a year makes.

CIN over CLE 31-20 – Johnny Manziel is getting the start on a short week against the team that routed him 30-0 last year at home when he was under center. I don’t expect him to fare much better this time, unless the defense and O-line can hold up.

Browns 27 Bengals 24 – The problems for the Browns go way past quarterback, and Josh McCown was most definitely not the problem—but Johnny Manziel hasn’t forgotten the pounding the Browns took in his starting debut in Cleveland last year.
Also, the Browns almost always seemingly show up for primetime. Regardless of Cleveland’s injuries, look for a repeat of last year to once again send Cincinnati into an ultimate state of panic after their tremendous start to the season.

Bengals 31 Browns 9 – Incredibly hard to go with the injury plagued, back-up quarterback-led Browns this Thursday night against a nearly flawless Cincinnati Bengals team — their record, of course, sits untouchable at 7-0. This game may not be pretty but I doubt we will see a mirroring 20-0 performance, such as last year’s attempt to play football against the Bengals with Johnny Manziel at quarterback.

Bengals 56, Browns 24: The Bengals could make this very, very ugly if they want to…but will take the foot off the gas early in the second half because you probably should never humiliate a division rival. Cincinnati has so many offensive weapons and will move the ball at will over a banged-up, overrated Cleveland defense. The Bengals have a talented, attacking defense that forces turnovers, pressures the quarterback and takes away the opposing team’s strength. The biggest problem the Cincinnati defense might run into will be trying to figure out exactly what the Browns’ offensive strength is. Johnny Manziel will be blitzed and bullied and it would not be surprising if Browns fans get their first regular-season look at Austin Davis. A short week to prepare for a team that is exponentially better than you is not a recipe for success. Hold on to your hats, folks…this is going to be a bumpy ride.

Cincinnati 30 Cleveland 10 – The Browns are stuck throwing Manziel in during a short week however the biggest problem for the Browns is the amount of concussions. The Browns are likely out Haden, Whitner, Hawkins, and Hartline. That’s going to be a lot for them to overcome figuring they are down to Benjamin, Gabriel, Moore, and Bowe at receiver, can’t run the ball, can’t stop the run, and now lose two secondary starters against some really big and athletic receivers. This should be ugly.

Bengals over Browns – The downward spiral continues for the Browns on a short week. The last time Johnny Manziel started against the Bengals, they gave him — and the team — a big dose of reality. The recent trade rumors certainly won’t help morale, and injuries continue to pile up, making an already thin team even thinner.

Bengals 28 Browns 17 – The Browns defense continues to struggle. Manziel plays better than his first go round with Cincy, but not enough to get the win.
