Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Cleveland Browns Week 9 Betting Pick and Odds
vs
Following their feeble performance in a 24-6 loss to lowly Jacksonville in Week 7, failing to cover as 4-point road favorites, the Cleveland Browns got back on track last weekend, posting a 23-13 win over Oakland as 6.5-point home favorites. The win improved the Browns to 4-3 on the season, 4-2-1 ATS, and also lifted their home record to 3-1, SU and ATS.
Tampa Bay travels to Cleveland following a shocking 19-13 overtime loss to Minnesota as 1-point home favorites. The Bucs had overcome a 10-0 deficit to take a 13-10 lead over the Vikes. But Minny's tying field goal with no time on the clock, followed by their winning Pick-6 in OT, resulted in T-Bay's second OT loss and fourth single-possession loss of the season. The 1-6 Bucs are 2-5 ATS, with both ATS wins coming in close games as road dogs, and are 0-3 as favorites this season, SU and ATS.
