Betting market: For the second straight week, the Browns are getting no love as a home dog. At the time of writing they are getting just 18% of the bets, so it’s not surprising to have seen them move from +3.5 to +4.5. There has been some sharp action on Cleveland (again), but not enough to keep the line from ballooning to 6 (see live betting data here). — Mark Gallant
Weather report: Sunday will have an almost wintery feel, as temperatures in Cleveland will be in the high 30s. The winds are currently borderline double digits, which is something to definitely keep an eye on. — Mark Gallant
Trends to know: The public is once again fading the Browns. Since 2003, teams that receive 20% or less of spread tickets have gone 114-92-9 (55%) ATS. Late in the season, November to January, teams getting little public support have gone 63-42-8 (60%) ATS. — John Ewing
