Browns Game Sunday: Browns vs Bengals odds and prediction for NFL Week 18 game

The Cleveland Browns play against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 18 of the 2021 NFL Season. Here’s a look at the betting info and a prediction for the game.

The Cleveland Browns finish the 2021 NFL Season at home against the Cincinnati Bengals. It was supposed to be a hot matchup to close the season with Baker Mayfield going against Joe Burrow — perhaps even for a playoff berth.

That won’t be the case, however, as Cincinnati has the division locked up and Cleveland’s season is officially over following this one. On top of that, Mayfield won’t play as he’s having shoulder surgery and Burrow may sit considering there’s nothing to play for.

So that means we will instead have Case Keenum vs. Brandon Allen to close out the season — just like we all asked for, right?

Here we look ahead to the contest with the odds for the game as well as a prediction for the outcome.

Browns vs. Bengals Odds Week 18

The Week 18 betting odds on WynnBET have the Browns coming into the game as 5.5 point favorites at home — as the oddsmakers clearly don’t trust Brandon Allen as much as Joe Burrow. Cleveland has a -240 on the moneyline whereas the Bengals come in at +195. As for the over/under, that’s sitting at 38.0 currently.

Browns vs. Bengals Prediction Week 18

Cleveland’s big issue as of late has been an inability to run the ball. They have a big play here and there but the consistency just isn’t there.

Perhaps it’s wishful thinking but with Cincinnati not worried about the outcome, look for Cleveland to finally get that on a roll. The ground game — possibly led by D’Ernest Johnson since there’s no reason to risk Nick Chubb — should have a nice day as they lead their team to a 23-20 win at home.

This has been a season to forget but at least they can go out on a high note.
