BENGALS VS BROWNS TNF BANKROLL BUILDER
(NFL) Cincinnati vs. Cleveland,
Point Spread: -6.00 | -103.00 Cleveland (Home)
Result: Loss
The Cincinnati Bengals took a close, but possibly demoralizing, 16-13 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in their season opener. This looks like a tough spot, playing on the road on a short week with a rookie quarterback in Joe Burrow against an AFC North rival.

The Cleveland Browns will be looking to bounce back from an embarrassing 38-6 loss at Baltimore. I think the bookmakers may have overreacted to that result. While the Browns can't compete with the likes of the Ravens, they sure have a lot more talent than the Bengals. They have a solid defensive line with Myles Garrett, Larry Ogunjobi, Olivier Vernon, and Sheldon Richardson, and running back Nick Chubb should find good openings against a banged up Cincinnati defense.

Last season, the Browns defeated the Bengals 27-19 at home and they're 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 games as a home favorite. Additionally, the Browns are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 Thursday games.
