4 Reasons the Cleveland Browns will beat the Bengals in Week 7
By Greg Newland
The Bengals are a team the Cleveland Browns should beat
Cleveland Browns fans are back to a situation they are familiar with. And that is going into a game the team should win really questioning what squad will show up. After four straight wins, the Browns took what felt like fifty steps back in week six getting demolished on the road by the Pittsburgh Steelers.
I won’t be the fan that says the Browns had to win the game or that I thought they would go to Pittsburgh and steal a win. However, I thought they could compete and keep the game close. While no lead feels big enough for the Browns, this one felt over early as both the offense and defense struggled.
It’s time to turn the page now, and no matter how bad a defeat feels, it does no good to linger. Cleveland now prepares for a second straight road game, but luckily stay in the state of Ohio as they travel to Cincinnati to play the Bengals.
I think fans saw early the rookie No. 1 overall pick Joe Burrow was the real deal, and after an early Thursday Night victory over the Bengals early in the season, a second win this season won’t be easy. Head coach Kevin Stefanski must regroup the troops and get them ready for another huge division game.
While winning the AFC North is likely already a longshot with a 1-2 record, the team certainly can’t afford to drop to 1-3 even with the additional wild card team in 2020. Last week’s game felt important, but this one could be even more crucial to see how the team responds.
Have faith that Stefanski can rally the troops and have the team ready to play. Here are four reasons why the Browns will get back on track and beat the Bengals on Sunday.
