Dueling picks for Cardinals vs. Browns in Week 15

The Arizona Cardinals take on the Cleveland Browns Sunday afternoon at State Farm Stadium at 2:05 p.m. The Browns are favored by 2.5 points but, of the three games left on the Cardinals’ schedule, this seems the most winnable.

So how will this game play out? The Cardinals have lost six games in a row, while the Browns have won four of their last five.

Browns Wire managing editor Jeff Risdon and I both made predictions for the game.

Here they are. We expect the victor to be the same but how it goes will differ.

Browns Wire: Browns 27, Cardinals 20

If the Browns are focused on offense, they should have a very good game. I can see Kyler Murray and the Cardinals passing game makes some waves but not quite enough of them. Browns win by a touchdown.

Cards Wire: Browns 30, Cardinals 27

As much as I would like to say I think the Cardinals win, I just can’t trust the defense. Cleveland’s offense has too many weapons and the Cardinals have just been bad defensively. However, this should be a high-scoring, competitive game that is fun to watch. The Browns give the Cards their seventh straight loss and beat them 30-27. It comes down to the wire and the Browns get a game-winning drive at the end.
