The Browns will receive the Bengals as one of the worst teams in the AFC in search of using their home ground to turn their season around. We are close to the mid-season point and the chances to revert the situation are getting thinner.
Meanwhile, the Bengals are slowly taking ground in the AFC North and don’t want to lose track of the Ravens after their direct duel was lost 2 weeks ago.

Why Bet the Browns
The Browns are dangerously close to completely losing their season. Four straight losses aren’t enough to have them at the bottom of their division, but just because the Steelers have been slightly worse, as they have the same number of wins and losses.
The team’s defense has been lacking, allowing 2422 offensive yards from their opponents and having just 2 interceptions in the hands of Grand Delpit and Denzel Ward.
Their touchdown defense has also been poor, allowing 21, and their offensive output has not compensated for this problem, although not everything is bad as they usually surpass the 20 points line in their games but are getting worse in the last 3 games.
Why Bet the Bengals
The Bengals could give a break to the Browns as Ja’Marr Chase won’t be present for this game, as he sustained a hip injury with a 4-6 weeks recovery prognosis. Coach Zac Taylor confirmed Trey Hendrickson will be in the starting line-up for this game.
The Chase-Burrow tandem has given plenty of fruit to Cinncinati’s offense, but they have great offensive tools in Boyd and Higgins that can associate with the star quarterback to give nightmares to their rivals’ defense.
Burrow average a 68.9 completion percentage, and he is slowly getting to his best as, against the Falcons, he had nine completions of at least 20 yards, and has tailed 300 passing yards in his last two games, getting 3 touchdowns.
If the Browns allow him the same passing efficiency, it will be almost impossible for them to turn things around in the offense.
Free Bengals at Browns Betting Pick
The Bengals are averaging a little over 27 points in their last five games, while the Browns, as we said before, are struggling more and more to surpass the 20 points line.
For this Halloween game, Cinncinati is 8-1 against the spread in its last nine games as a visitor. Meanwhile, the Browns are 1-4 against the spread in their last five home outings.
The odds favor the rising visitors with a -161 against a +131 for the Browns, so the bookmarkers firmly believe that the home ground won’t have any weight in this MNF match.
We’ll go for a Cinncinati Bengals win, with a 27-21 score. The Browns struggling defense has surrendered 68 points over the past two weeks and even without Ja’Marr Chase along side him, Joe Burrow should be prepared to pick them apart.
