Bengals stop Browns on fourth down

The Bengals held the Browns on a fourth-and-9 play from the Bengals 29-yard line with 11:29 remaining in the game.

On third down, Derek Anderson's pass for Braylon Edwards was short. The Bengals blitzed.

On fourth down, Bengals end Justin Smith hit Anderson's arm as he was throwing, and the ball fell incomplete.

Why is this team so in love with throwing on first down? Why? Why? Why?

It usually puts them in a hole yardage wise and why in the hell would you throw on first down after interception when you are up by 12? Bob Bratkowski has lost it. His schemes are not showing any results. I don't know much about football, but there is some truth to the statement of the offense being predictable.
