Coming off their late-season bye week, the Cleveland Browns have a chance to make a huge splash late in the year. At 6-6, the Browns are a game back of the sixth and seventh seeds in the AFC. The huge splash that they could make? Cleveland has games against four teams that currently sit ahead of them in the AFC playoff standings.
That starts with Week 14 against the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens are scuffling recently with a rash of injuries and QB Lamar Jackson having to carry the offense. Having just lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers, Baltimore still holds a one-game lead in the AFC North with a tough schedule ahead of them as well.
Going into Week 14, Tipico has the Browns as a 2.5 point favorite at home. They also have the game with the lowest total of any for the upcoming week, 42.5 points.
A 2.5 point spread isn’t much, especially for the home team. With the two teams playing a close game just two weeks ago, Cleveland coming off their bye and Baltimore having another major injury, it wouldn’t be shocking to see that number move as the week goes on. Then again, trusting the inconsistent Browns could be dangerous to anyone’s health.
