The Cleveland Browns handled the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 9 in a vital AFC North matchup. The 41 – 16 victory after a difficult week in Berea certainly helps put the team and fans in a better mood.
While a 5 – 4 record is not what was expected of the team, they have eight games left to reach those expectations.
In Week 9, the team finally had a complete game from both the offense and the defense. Throughout the season, one or the other played well but not both. Some games neither played well.
The defense scored the team’s first touchdown and put the team in good positions to score a number of other times. The offense made some big plays both throwing and running the ball to put away the home team and not allowing them to create drama late in the game.
Here are a few takeaways from what we learned from today’s win.
