I would have went for it on that 4th down, we netted 18 yards on the punt.

3 to 0 Browns.

The Bengals are lucky Watson isn't anything special today so far.

Doesn't matter when the punt returner doesn't know how to run north/south.

Our punt returner looks slow/stiff to me.

Whoops. Nevermind, thought you were talking about the Browns punt.

Very unimpressed with him so far. Trent Taylor seemed miles ahead of him.

In good news, our rookie punter is getting a lot of reps in and the announcers kidded the Bengals may have to ice him down at halftime. 

Chubb for a big gain, Browns to the 45 up 3 to 0.

Jonah Williams being Jonah Williams again.

What was that old Spurrier line about UK? 

"They've got a good punter." I'm not even sure he's had a good game, but definitely a lot of experience.

2 minute warning.

Browns up 3 to 0.

Bengals have the ball.

Not only Burrow but the Bengals are worse this opener than we were last year.  Once again the preseason wasn't much help getting us ready to play Pro Football. 

If Cleveland can score a TD before half we are in serious trouble.  Good thing the Browns are sloppy.

The Bengals don't even seem to care about not being ready. Game 1 has become a pre-season game for the Bengals - and many other teams in the NFL too.

I agree and as you know that was my beef last preseason and this one too.  As soon as I saw Burrow pull up in practice this is exactly what I thought would happen.  Considering this is Pro Football that is unacceptable.  The defense has been fairly solid. 

Bad clock management by the Browns. They have taken the run out of the play book with 26 seconds left in the half. 

LOL ... so much for that comment.
