Browns vs. Bengals Final Score: Cleveland sweeps Cincinnati with 26-18 win

The Cleveland Browns gave their fans a nice Christmas present on Sunday as they defeated the Cincinnati Bengals at FirstEnergy Stadium.

The 26-18 victory gives the Browns their first season sweep of the Bengals since 2002, and finishes off the home portion of the schedule with a 5-2-1 record. The Browns also evened their overall record at 7-7-1; with a win next week against the Baltimore Ravens, the Browns will finish the season with a winning record for just the third time since 1989.

The game started out slowly as neither team could get on the scoreboard in the first quarter.
