Recap in a Sentence:
Colt McCoy and the Browns' offense were unspeakably bad, especially in the 2nd half, and the Bengals scored 14 4th quarter points to spoil Pat Shurmur's head coaching debut.
Player of the Game:
Cedric Benson - 25 carries, 125 yards, 1 touchdown
Recently released from jail, Benson gashed Cleveland's defense repeatedly for big gains. Benson also sealed the Browns' fate with a 39-yard TD scamper in the final minutes of the game.
Play of the Game:
Bruce Gradkowski's 41-yard TD pass to A.J. Green in the 4th quarter
Gradkowski, who replaced the injured Andy Dalton, reached into his bag of tricks and produced the deciding touchdown midway through the final stanza. Gradkowski and the Bengals executed a quick snap, which caught the Browns napping. The result was an easy TD connection between Gradkowski and Green to give Cincy a lead it would not relinquish.
