he Philadelphia Eagles are in first place in the NFC East, while the Cleveland Browns are in third place in the AFC North. Yet the Browns are clear favorites over the Eagles for the teams’ Week 11 matchup at FirstEnergy Stadium.


Cleveland opened as 3.5-point favorites at BetMGM, a line that carries steadily across most sportsbooks. That’s a reflection of the team’s records and not the divisional standings. The Browns are 6-3 while the Eagles are 3-5-1.

The bookmakers see this being a low-scoring game, as has been the case with the last two games at FirstEnergy Stadium. The over/under is set at 47.5. Weather could be a factor yet again in Cleveland, helping keep the total down

That’s what I think too ... pretty similar to the Houston game ... maybe a bit higher scoring. Like 20-17 or so

I wish I felt more confidence in us. Just isn't there for me. Hope we hang a laugher on somebody before the season is over. fingerscrossed

Having Garrett out should change the line.


How does a league celebrating its 100th season only recognize the 53 most recent championships?

I feel the same way. I just don't have much faith in this team.

Classic Browns.

Has any other team lost their best player for a game? Patriots lost Cam Newton which cost them big, but I dunno if you could even argue he's their best player, just more important position.

Without Garrett this is a 50/50 game at best.

Broncos have been without Von Miller. Saints lost Michael Thomas for awhile and are going to be without Brees now. CJ Mosley opted out for the Jets and Becton/Darnold might already be their "best" player otherwise and both have missed time. I think Julio Jones and most of the Falcons' defense have missed time. Colts were without Darius Leonard when the played us. No Bosa for the 49ers.

Lots of great players have missed time.

The "reason" why a player is lost for a game or more doesn't lessen the loss.


If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.
