CINCINNATI (-11) over Cleveland

In one corner, you have the Browns. The Cleveland offense has no balance (read: they cannot run the ball), they have thrown for more than 270 yards 3 times in 8 games (and 0 times in their last 3 games), and their defense has held the opposing team to under 24 points once, and that was back in week 2. 

In the other corner, you have the Bengals, who are 7-0, and who have scored less than 24 points just once. And they're at home on a short week. 

Oh, and Cleveland is starting the enigma that is Johnny Manziel. 

Give me the Bengals.
