Detroit Lions at Cleveland Browns: Week 11 NFL Odds

Lions improve to 0-8-1 with 16-16 tie at Pittsburgh

Oh my, sibling.

The Lions avoided another loss during the second consecutive weekend, following their bye week, by settling for a 16-all tie against the Pittsburgh Steelers in a game that can only be described as somewhat inexplicable.

In a matchup that showcased the struggles of Pittsburgh’s backup Mason Rudolph and Los Angeles’ Jared Goff, both quarterbacks had an abysmal performance. With the game going into overtime without a single point on the board, it finally concluded after an excruciating 10 minutes.

However, there were a few positive aspects to note, such as the Lions’ impressive rushing performance of 229 yards, with D’Andre Swift leading the charge by accumulating 130 yards on the ground.

This season, the Lions have a record of 5-4 against the spread, successfully covering in alternate weeks. If this trend continues, the Lions would fail to cover against Cleveland.

The Lions had suffered heavy defeats in two out of their last three games prior to Sunday. On October 17th, Detroit was defeated by the Cincinnati Bengals with a score of 34-11.

Following their performance in a 28-19 loss against the Los Angeles Rams, the Lions were subsequently defeated by the visiting team from Philadelphia with a score of 44-6 on October 31st, just before their Week 9 bye week.

Statuses of Baker Mayfield, Nick Chubb up in the air

The Browns are also not in good shape.

On Sunday, the New England Patriots dominated Cleveland with a crushing 45-7 victory, leaving the latter at a 5-5 record.

The situation worsened when Baker Mayfield, the quarterback, suffered a knee injury, leaving uncertainty around his availability for Sunday’s game and potentially affecting the betting odds. Case Keenum stepped in as a replacement once Mayfield was sidelined.

Nick Chubb, the running back, was absent from the NE game due to a positive COVID-19 test.

Odell Beckham Jr., the unpredictable wide receiver, was recently let go by the Browns. Shortly after, he was acquired by the Rams, who unfortunately suffered the loss of Robert Woods for the rest of the season.
