Cleveland Browns vs. Cincinnati Bengals Key Stats
The Browns' offense has been very solid this year, despite QB Deshaun Watson making his season debut just last week. Watson, once comfortable with the offense, should only make things easier for his teammates. Running back Nick Chubb has been excellent all year, and he currently ranks second in the NFL with 1,119 rushing yards and 12 TDs. As for Watson's targets, Amari Cooper has amassed 832 receiving yards already, but he is listed as questionable for Sunday. Wideout Donovan Peoples-Jones and tight end David Njoku are reliable weapons for Watson to throw to as well, but the Bengals have fared okay against the pass all year long.
The Bengals, led by QB and former #1 pick Joe Burrow, have been rolling over their last four games, and they'll look to dominate a weak Browns defense on Sunday. Burrow has 3,446 passing yards this year, the second-most in the NFL, and his 25 TDs are tied for second. He's been great, and even though running back Joe Mixon has underwhelmed this season, we know he's capable of big games from time to time. With Tee Higgins and Ja'Marr Chase fully healthy, look for the passing game to flourish for the hosts on Sunday.
Cleveland Browns vs. Cincinnati Bengals Betting Prediction
Even though the Browns defeated the Bengals 32-13 at the end of October, Cincinnati has been firing on all cylinders since that game. Cincy should be able to win and cover on Sunday and break their slump versus the Browns, especially considering the fact they've covered each of their past four games. Watson looked rusty last week, and the Bengals should be able to take advantage enough to win by a TD.
Prediction: Bengals -5.5 (-110)
