Cleveland Browns vs Chicago Bears Prediction
For years, there’s bettors out there who back the Browns, and they often leave with less money. The Browns have failed to cover 12 of their last 16 games as an underdog. Even with Sanders at quarterback, the Browns are one of the worst offenses in the league, ranked 30th in total offense and 29th in scoring. The weakness of the Browns defense is on the ground, and that’s not ideal against this heavy rush offense of Chicago. Since December 2023, the Bears are 8-2 ATS as a favorite. I don’t love the hook on top of a key number, but the Bears should win this game by double digits. I’ll lay the points.
