Cincy V Clev (frog alert)

I totally agree. I don't have the balls to play Cleveland, but if I did, I'd take the ML. At least I'm staying off Cincy this week.

80% on cincy - who in their right mind would bet cleveland?
the line opens at a small little -4 The game is at Cleveland Minn game was -4
clev viewed as the worst team in the nfl Maybe, the Raiders might have them
cincy viewed as a "contender" that could be 3-0 They are a contender
clev qb controversy That controversy was there in week 1,2,3
now lets throw in
cincy coming of a huge win v the steelers A confidence booster
might be looking ahead to match up next week with ravens This is not CFB
I dont know this could be UPSET city

I don't think Cincy blows them out by 21+, but they have the #3 rusher in football and a good passing game right now. The Browns are lost without a legit RB and playing musical chairs at QB. No way Browns cover a line near 7. If they were getting 10+ it may be worth looking at. Laying the chalk here.

Every game the Bengals have played this year has gone down to the last play. One of the reasons this keeps happening is that the Bengals are slow to start ,which they know, and are working to take care of the situation. The local papers have had several quotes/articles from the Cincy players stating they are not taking this game lightly as a win keeps them only (at the worst) one game back of Baltimore(which they play in week 5, next week). Anderson has had some success against the Bengals in the past, BUT it will not matter much, as this defense is improved over last year(which was 12th overall) buy adding Roy Williams, Tank Johnson, getting Keith Rivers back, Mauglana(spelled wrong) and lets not forget Defensive Player of the month and his 7 sacks Antwaan Odom.
Cincinnati Bengals have a better offense, Cincinnati Bengals have a better defense. Cleveland fans are expecting them to lose (home field is negated a bit). If you took the Cincinnati Bengals and put them in Patriot Uniforms they would be a 9 point favorites. The line only being 5.5 is a gift.
Take the Bengals and give up the 5.5

I never like plays when 80%+ of the public is riding one side. The books would be smarter on the lines if they really hated the money going on the Bengals, but maybe I'm just looking into it too much as well.

i'm browns season ticket holder [why, at this point, i have no idea, other than inertia]. do NOT back the browns. the reasons you cite are very valid reasons to avoid the game altogether, but you cannot justify trusting the browns with any part of your bankroll right now.

JGILL50 · 10-02-09, 07:37 AM

your right most of the reason i wrote this was to keep me off of the bengals.
no line is a "gift"

Finally some common sense, from a Browns fan at that!

There are much better dogs on the board this Sunday.
