Browns lose to Bengals, 14-0
December 21st, 2008 at 4:39 pm by Displaced Cleveland FanThankfully this game was not televised here.
How bad was this game?
- The Browns lost at home to the Bengals. This is the team that came into the game with a 2-11-1 record.
- Not only did they lose, but the Browns couldn’t even score once.
- Cleveland is a pathetic 1-7 at home this year.
- The Browns have now gone 5 straight games without an offensive touchdown.
- Ken Dorsey, the third string QB who is starting in place of Brady Quinn and Derek Anderson, left in the fourth quarter with an injury. Welcome Bruce Gradkowski. You may want to be careful in the pocket.
And don’t look now, but Cleveland has a chance of finishing in last place in their division. The Browns are a half game ahead of Cincinnati after today’s loss with one game left. Cleveland plays Pittsburgh next week (yeah, that’s a definite loss). Cincinnati, on the other hand, is playing at home against the 2-13 Kansas City Chiefs. So unless the Chiefs can do something they haven’t been able to do all year (beat a team outside of their division), the Browns will finish at the bottom of the AFC North.
How’s that for a team that so many were predicting would be a legitimate playoff threat?

Oh, and somehow I forgot to mention the 4 interceptions. Oh well. Not too surprising, all things considered.
