The Bengals travel north to take on the Browns for the battle of Ohio on Monday Oct. 31 a Halloween game on MNF on ESPN. Hopefully today's game will kick the Bengals off to a good run going forward. Go Bengals! WHO DEY!!

You'd cheat kids out of 30 minutes of candy?  Kickoff is not until 8:15pm!

No way!  And I would keep giving candy out as long as kids kept showing up and use my DVR as a backup plan.

The bridge over the moat closes and the castle lights go out at 8pm when trick or treat is scheduled to be over.  Plenty of time to switch on the big screen TV before the game starts.  I'll have my Pratt jersey on as I give out candy.

For that last 30 minutes, it is mostly teenagers anyway.  The little ones are usually toast by then.  Talking about hardcore trick or treating, when my kids were small, I'd strategically map out a plan to hit every street and house in the subdivision in two hours.  Put the kids in a wagon and go.  No meaningless small talk with neighbors.  We were on a mission!

Back to the game.  I think the Browns will try to control the game by running the ball and playing defense similar to what other clubs played earlier in the year against the Bengals.  I still think the Bengals will win, but Money Mac may have to make a late kick.

The Bengals are currently a 3.5 favorite with an over/under of 47.

Sounds about right. 

I've enjoyed Cincy winning the toss and opting to receive rather than defer until the 2nd half. Hopefully we see more of that on Monday night.

Chase out 4-6 weeks.  Just when the Bengals seemed to be really playing well as a team.

Ugh.

Bengals.   With Chase out, I'd expect a heavy dose of Mixon.
