The Bills (-625) will cost you more than 6 times your potential return, and that’s obviously way too much risk for not nearly enough return. A $100 wager will return just $16 of profit.
The Bills are unlikely to lose outright to the Browns, who appear to be in full tank mode, but anything can happen.
AVOID.
Back the BILLS -10.5 (-105), as they look to keep their AFC East Division title hopes on track.
The Browns have long since been eliminated, and this is a team which was dusted in Chicago against another contender last week, and one which lost at home to the lowly Tennessee Titans in the most recent showing at home. Cleveland is also 0-3 ATS in the past 3 games, and they’ve lost the past tries against AFC East teams which also going 0-2 ATS. They’ve averaged 16.5 PPG in those 2 losses, while allowing 29.5 PPG.
OVER 41.5 (-110) is a strong play, and it wouldn’t be shocking to see Buffalo come really close to hitting it all on its own.
The Browns have allowed 31 points in each of the past 2 games against the Titans and Bears, and Cleveland has allowed 26.7 PPG in the past 3 home outings.
The Bills have registered at least 35 points in 3 of the past 5 games, while allowing 30+ in 4 of the previous 6 outings, too.
