The Cleveland Browns are a hard team to figure out this season, with small glimpses of what could be a competent football team despite several inconsistencies. However, one thing has been reliable, the OVER has hit in all five of the Browns games this season. Cleveland will look to continue their offensive surge when they host the Denver Broncos Sunday.
- The Broncos are 4-0 SU and ATS in their last four games against the Browns.
- The Browns are 5-1 ATS in their last six games as underdogs.
- Denver is 4-1 ATS in their last five games.
The Browns have averaged a respectable 23.6 points per game on offense while surrendering a less-than-fantastic 26.4 points per game. Every Browns game this season has seen at least 41 points scored with their past two eclipsing 50 combined points.
It’s a different story for the Broncos this season as their defense has allowed a measly 15.8 points per game and their offense has scored just 22.6 points per game. Denver has struggled to run the ball and has averaged just 3.3 yards per carry while quarterback Peyton Manning has thrown more interceptions than touchdowns.
