This should be a interesting football game as the Broncos beat the Browns in Cleveland last season 34-30.  Don’t expect another shootout like that one as a long has changed with these two teams.  Look for the Browns to run the ball a lot more this week.  Jamal Lewis looked great last week but the Browns didn’t use him much in the 2nd half of the game last week when they were trying to catch up.  The Broncos only allowed 86 yards rushing last week on 27 carries (3.2 ypc) but I think Jamal Lewis is a lot better than Cedric Benson.  The Broncos will likely be blitzing when they get off the team bus against the Browns trying to force Brady Quinn into make some mistakes with the football.  The Browns must find a way to get the ball to Braylon Edwards more this week or they will have problems moving the ball thru the air.

It’s apparent that the Browns have not fixed their run defense as the Vikings rolled up 225 yards rushing (6.1 ypc) last week.  With that in mind look for the Broncos to run the ball more often than they did last week.  Look for Correll Buckhalter and rookie Knowshon Moreno to split the carries this week.  The Browns did get 4 sacks last week and they will likely be bringing a lot of heat against Kyle Orton when the Broncos pass and he must protect the football. 

PREDICTION:  BRONCOS 21, BROWNS 17
