GAME PLAN: The Browns should expect the Bills to attack their zone defense after Broncos quarterback Jay Cutler passed for 447 yards against them last week. They could go more man-to-man, but that is not an automatic solution, either, because Cutler burned Brandon McDonald twice in man-to-man, which is one reason Romeo Crennel is thinking about benching McDonald.

Brady Quinn completed 23 passes against the Broncos, but only six went to wide receivers. One was caught by Braylon Edwards. Quinn is expected to involve Edwards more on Monday.

MATCHUPS TO WATCH: Browns LB Willie McGinest vs. Bills RB Marshawn Lynch. Lynch is averaging only 3.5 yards a carry, but he is a workhorse and has scored six of the Bills' eight rushing touchdowns. The Browns should expect Lynch to get 18 to 20 carries unless their run defense proves it can stop him.

Browns KR Josh Cribbs vs. Bills special teams. Cribbs has been on fire the last two games, averaging 33.9 yards on seven kick returns against the Ravens and 27 yards on five returns vs. the Broncos. He won't find it as easy against the Bills. Opponents are averaging 21.7 yards against them. That's ninth best in the league.

INJURY IMPACT: LG Eric Steinbach was still limited Thursday, but he is determined to play against the Bills. He has been running in the exercise pool and doing upper-body lifting.
