What to Know
This Sunday, the Cleveland Browns are hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 31.17 points per game. Cleveland and the Cincinnati Bengals will face off in an AFC North battle at 1 p.m. ET Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium. The Browns won’t have the home-field advantage, but they do enjoy a 3.5-point advantage in the spread.
Cleveland has to be hurting after a devastating 38-7 loss at the hands of the Pittsburgh Steelers last week. Cleveland was down 31-7 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. QB Baker Mayfield had a memorable game, but not in the way you want to be remembered: despite one touchdown, he threw two interceptions with only 119 yards passing.
Meanwhile, Cincinnati didn’t finish too far behind, but the team still lost 31-27 to the Indianapolis Colts last week. Cincinnati was up 14 to nothing at the end of the first quarter but couldn’t hold on to the lead. No one had a standout game offensively for the Bengals, but they got scores from RB Giovani Bernard and RB Joe Mixon. QB Joe Burrow ended up with a passer rating of 126.40.
The Browns are the favorite in this one, with an expected 3.5-point margin of victory. Those burned by picking them against the spread last week might want to keep in mind that the squad has never dropped back-to-back games against the spread this season.
The losses put Cleveland at 4-2 and Cincinnati at 1-4-1. Cleveland doesn’t typically stay down for long — they’re 1-0 after losses this year — so the Bengals (0-2-1 after losses) won’t have an easy go of it.
