The battle for Ohio does not have much appeal this season as the Bengals and Browns are both mired in losing campaigns. However, they still have to play the games and this sad sack kicks off at 1:00pm ET Sunday afternoon at Cleveland Browns Stadium. NFL Picks at Bookmaker.com have the Bengals as a +3 road underdog.
Browns Breakdown: Cleveland has failed miserably in their attempt to follow up on last season's winning record. They head into this division contest with a 4-10 record and a lame duck head coach. The third place Browns displayed their awful wares before a national audience Monday night in Philadelphia, getting waxed by the Eagles 30-10.
The Browns, losers of four in a row, are 1-6 at home and averaging just 17.1 points per game at Cleveland Browns Stadium.
Bengals Breakdown: Cincinnati has fared even worse than the Browns, but it is yet to be determined if Marvin Lewis will return as head coach. His guiding the Bengals to a lackluster 2-11-1 mark this year certainly has not helped his cause. Cincinnati was able to record a rare win last weekend, topping the reeling Redskins 20-13 at Paul Brown Stadium.
The Bengals are 0-7 on the road and averaging just 12.5 points per game away from home.
NFL Picks Betting Trend: The Bengals are 2-13 straight up in their last 15 road games.
