Why does everyone love the Browns this week?

[TheThreeKings]

I don't get it Please explain before I go dropping money on the other side.

[loopydude11]

I don't.... Just because they ALMOST got close to beating the Ravens doesn't give them the upper-hand against the Bengals (who did beat the Ravens..)

[GiveMeaBJ]

Because we are sharp.

[GiveMeaBJ]

And Carson Palmer sucks.

[TheThreeKings]

Because we are sharp.

Yeah yeah yeah. Seriously though, I'd like to hear some reasoning. I was at the M tonight and everyone was getting ready to pounce on the Bengals, then I get on here and all I see is talk of the Browns.

[ssk13809]

It's stupid talk. Bengals will win that game.

[Poppa Catfish]

Buzzwords! and Seneca Wallace is amazing!!!! More Buzz words!!!

[NardVa]

In the NFL expect the unexpected. Should the Browns win but if they did I wouldn't be surprised. There's always a a few games each week that leave you scratching your head.

[MaxEMillion]

if by EVERYONE you mean 70% of the bets are on CIN then you are right. And if the line dropping doesnt hit you in the face then your going to lose alot before you learn. This game is either CLE or no bet..............the only other logical play in my opinion is the under.

[Soxsfan9]

Because Cincy is playing the 2nd straight road games and teams that play back to back road games do not have a great records in the second games. Also Cleveland is playing solid defense and can run the ball, I expect a low scoring game where the Browns have a good shot to cover and win outright!

[Addicted2Cash]

ok lets throw out the thing you dont wanna hear about the majority being on cincy like it a free chicken dinner and pinny giving you + money to take them...

cle has been competitive in every game leading in most at some point in 2nd half. while yes they are not the most talented they have a very underrated o-line(actually one of the best imo), cle has one of the better ypc in the league while cin avg ypc against is not good at all. Like Giver said Palmer is a shell of his former self and this offense just isnt very good. Cle plays this game tough and this one should be no exception with them desperately needing a win. i see a sloppy low scoring game where why not take the home team catching a fg...personally i like the under more but i think on a side it has to be cle or pass

[kernssca]

As an ohioan that has lived in CLE most of my life with a stint in Dayton, they both are bad. Will be close but CLe always finds a way to blow it. Especially after playing relatively well last week. Look for CIN to pass all over CLE

[Duby]

Its like everyone is waiting for Bengals to crash and burn.

Well hopefully wont happen this week cause I love Cinci this week and im playing them at this price for sure!

[superman613]

i like cincy also but might stay away looks to easy

pass all over? have you seen Palmer throw this year? that guy cant pass all over anything anymore...

[Capybara]

This week sucks! I haven't got a firm read of any game, I can see them all goign either way...

There seems to be a theme: Can the teams that really need to get off the snide step up? The stats thus far say no, but I get that "feel" like a couple of these doormats will step up this week. I could see the Panthers, Browns, and Niners all covering.

[gummo]

Anybody who watched the Bengals offense against Carolina last week can see why the Browns would be a good play. Also the prick took the Bengals this week.

[hitman2010]

good luck on Cleveland play, Cincy look better and stronger.

[NFL49ers]

Browns QB Delhomme questionable, is he playing?

[Firefox14]

Let's not forget the weather report. Supposed to be cloudy with brief showers. Passing game will suffer!

[Rig]

now i dont know whjat to do
