It’s another week of NFL action and that means the Cleveland Browns are once again taking action at the betting windows. For whatever reason – none that I can think of – the Browns have drawn sharp money in each of the last four weeks. I disagree with that sentiment and still view the Browns as one of the worst teams in the NFL in most facets. The Browns did show strong second half life in their win against the Bengals last week. However, Cleveland was outgained by over 100 yards in the game, while +3 in the turnover department. This was more the Bengals beating themselves. Keep in mind the Browns broke an 11-game losing streak as last week was their first win in 329 days, against a division opponent as well. Said cornerback Joe Haden after the game, “It felt like we won the Super Bowl.”
Meanwhile, the Colts were manhandled by the Jets last week. It was going to be a tricky trip to New York, while the upstart Colts had pulled off an improbable victory the week before overcoming a 21-3 deficit against the Green Bay Packers. Of course, the young Colts were playing that game for their head coach, Chuck Pagano, who is fighting leukemia. Yes, the Colts are banged up on defense, but quarterback Andrew Luck will have his team focused this week. The spot screams the Colts on Sunday, and we’ll take the line value with the move towards the Browns.
