  • The Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals have both opened the 2017 season with an 0-3 SU and 1-2 ATS record. Something has to give when the Browns host the Bengals this Sunday.

    SHARK BITES
    • The Browns are 2-9-1 ATS in their last 12 games in the early afternoon.
    • The Bengals are 9-2 SU and 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games after consecutive losses.
    • The total has gone UNDER in six of the Bengals’ last seven games.

    After a 4-0 SU and ATS preseason, Cleveland was hoping the team might be ready to take a step forward this season. Instead, it’s been more of the same, as the Browns are now 1-21 SU and 5-16-1 over their last 22 games. In their last 13 games against division rivals, the Browns are 0-13 SU and 1-11-1 ATS.

    Andy Dalton posted one of the worst quarterback ratings in NFL history in Week 1, passing for just 170 yards and four interceptions with no touchdowns in Cincinnati’s 20-0 loss to Baltimore. The offense remained stagnant in a 13-9 loss to Houston, prompting the firing of offensive coordinator Ken Zampese. Dalton looked much better last Sunday against Green Bay, passing for 212 yards and two touchdowns.

    Cincinnati is a perfect 5-0 SU and ATS in its last five games against Cleveland. The UNDER is 5-1 in the last six games between these two rivals.

    Sportsbook Odds & Computer Pick

    Odds at sportsbooks such as Sportsbook had the Cleveland Browns pegged as 2.5-point underdogs in this matchup. The total, meanwhile, was listed by books like Sportsbook at 40.

    OddsShark computer NFL score prediction models picked a possible 21-15 win for the Browns on Sunday.
