Cleveland Browns - NFL Betting Analysis

Cleveland will look to add on another win, as they picked up a non-conference victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (23-17). Heading into the game, the Browns were 3.5-point underdogs, resulting in both a straight-up and ATS victory. With an over-under betting line of 42, the two teams fell below that figure as they combined for 40. Cleveland went into the 4th quarter of the game trailing by 7 at 17-10, but still came back to win and cover the spread as underdogs. Through 11 games, the Browns have an ATS record of 5-5-1. So far, they have an over-under record of 7-3-1. This week's betting total of 47.0 is slightly higher than the line in their previous games.

Heading into this week's matchup, the Browns' offense is averaging 23.9 points per game, placing them 11th in the NFL. Look for the team to put together another strong offensive performance, as they are facing a Texans defense ranked 20th in points per game. This year, the Browns are ranked 15th in pass yards per game and are matched up against a secondary, giving up 216 yards per game. On the ground, the Browns should be in line for a good performance, as they are one of the better rushing teams in the league and are facing a defense that has its problem stopping the run.

 

Houston Texans - NFL Betting Analysis

This week, the Houston Texans are hoping to get back in the win column after falling 30-15 to the Miami Dolphins. The loss was costly, as it came against an AFC opponent. Not only did Houston lose the game, but they also failed to cover the spread. Going into the game, the team was 14.0 point underdogs. The two teams combined point total of 45 remained below the betting line of 47. The Texans were not able to make a comeback in last week's game, as they trailed Miami by a score of 30-6 heading into the final quarter. Through 11 games, the Texans have an ATS record of 4-6-1. So far, they have an over-under record of 4-7. This week's betting total of 47.0 is slightly higher than the line in their previous games.

Heading into this week's matchup, the Texans' offense is averaging 15.82 points per game, placing them 31st in the NFL. Look for the team to put together a strong offensive performance vs a Browns defense, giving up 28.6 points per game. Even though Houston has a good matchup in the passing game, as the Browns are ranked 29th in passer rating allowed, we don't anticipate the team being able to take advantage. Look for the Texans to finish the game with a below-average performance in the passing game. On the ground, the Texans' are averaging just 88.5 yards per game, which is 29th in the league. This week, they have a good matchup vs a Cleveland defense, allowing 131.5 rushing yards.

 

Today's NFL Betting Pick - Browns vs. Texans

When looking back at the recent matchups between Cleveland and Houston, the Browns have won 2 of the last 3 games. The over-under record in these games sits at 1-2, with the average scoring total coming in at 37.0 points. Last year, the Browns picked up the win in the only matchup between the teams. However, Houston covered the spread as 13.5-point underdogs. The over-under line for the game was 48.0.

The Houston Texans have performed well vs the spread in recent games, going 3-0. The Browns' offense has averaged 18.0 points per game over the 3 most recent meetings with Houston, compared to the Texans at 19.0.

Over their last 3 regular season games, the Browns have gone 1-2 straight up. In these games, they have gone just 1-1-1 vs the spread while posting an over-under mark of 2-1.

Across the Browns' last 3 road games, the team averaged 20.0 points per game while allowing 31.0. Their record vs the spread in these contests was 1-1-1 while going 0-3 straight-up.

Over their last 3 regular season games, the Texans have gone 0-3 straight up. In addition, the team has not done well vs the spread, going 0-3. Their over-under record in these games was 0-3.

Across the Texans' last 3 home games, the team averaged 12.33 points per game while allowing 23.0. Their record vs the spread in these contests was 1-2, while going 0-3 straight-up.
