Browns vs. Bengals: NFL Week 14 Early Odds, Picks & Predictions (2022)
Last week, I suggested backing the Titans at +6.5 over the Philadelphia Eagles this week. The Titans have now dropped from +6.5 to +4.5. However, I’ll eat some crow too. I also suggested backing the Texans at +6 and the Giants at +1. Instead, the Texans went to +7, and the Giants are now +2.5 at home against the Commanders.
Overall, we’ve been earning a ton of positive EV plays this season. Last week’s plays likely won’t give us at least two positive EV plays. But we’re back at it for Week 14. And here’s a closer look at Browns vs. Bengals.

Browns vs. Bengals: NFL Week 14 Early Odds, Picks & Predictions
Cleveland Browns vs. Cincinnati Bengals
I suggested this last week, and I’m sticking to it.
What if Deshaun Watson struggles in his debut for the Browns in Week 13 against the Texans?
Maybe the Browns will pull out a win. But if Watson doesn’t have a crisp game for Cleveland on Sunday, many bettors will quickly fade him. After all, Watson hasn’t played a regular season game in years, and he didn’t look all that good in preseason earlier this year.
Meanwhile, the Bengals are taking on the Kansas City Chiefs at home. Cincinnati is getting Ja’Marr Chase and likely will have Joe Mixon back in the lineup against the Chiefs. Now that the offense is healthy, the Bengals could become a real threat against the Chiefs. If the Bengals squeeze out a win against the Chiefs and the Browns struggle in Watson’s debut, this Bengals line will be much higher than -3.5.
Bet: Bengals -3.5 (-110)
