The Cleveland Browns and the Pittsburgh Steelers are going to square off in Week 17 of the NFL betting campaign. Join us here at Cappers Info, as we make our predictions for football for what should be a great game on Sunday.

Week 17 NFL Picks: Cleveland Browns @ Pittsburgh Steelers
Date: Sunday, December 30th, 1:00 ET
Location: Heinz Field, Pittsburgh, PA
Week 17 Betting Odds: Pittsburgh -7
Browns vs. Steelers Live TV: CBS

This is a ludicrous point spread, to say the least. The Steelers are only favored by a touchdown under the premise that they have given up on the season, while the Browns are still fighting their hearts out to impress new ownership for the 2013 campaign. Pittsburgh though, has a massive score to settle, and QB Ben Roethlisberger is going to want to go out this year with a bang, not a dud. Big Ben threw the game-clinching picks both in Week 15 and in Week 16, and those two losses proved to be the team’s undoing for the playoffs. It’s not so much that the Steelers have the desire to finish at .500 that makes us think that this game is going to be a blowout. It’s that they turned the ball over eight times against the Browns in a 20-14 loss at the Dawg Pound. If Cleveland can only win by six points in a game in which it was at home against a third string quarterback in QB Charlie Batch, is there any way that it is going to be able to come on the road with a third string quarterback of its own in QB Thaddeus Lewis and get the job done in the Steel City against a ticked off Pittsburgh outfit? We think not!

Making sports betting picks is one of my specialties, and today at Cappers Info, I’m making my Sunday Football Tipster pick based upon the football trends and NFL odds for the Cleveland Browns vs. Denver Broncos game on Sunday, December 23rd at Sports Authority Field at Mile High at 1:00 p.m. ET.

Cleveland Browns (5-9, 8-5-1 ATS) +13.5
Denver Broncos (11-3, 8-6 ATS) -13.5
Over/Under 44

Another great spot for a teaser for sure. The Browns haven’t lost a game by more than 17 points all year long, and you have to go back to the end of the 2010 season to find the last time they were beaten by three full touchdowns. Is it justified to ultimately make the Browns double digit underdogs? It’s tough to argue otherwise after the Broncos just went on the road and beat the snot out of the likely eventual AFC North champs, the Baltimore Ravens 34-17 in a game truly wasn’t that close.

QB Peyton Manning isn’t going to falter for sure either. He has just two TD passes in his last two games, but he also has seven games with three touchdowns as well. QB Brandon Weeden isn’t going to be able to keep up with that in all likelihood, but he has proven that he can make some big plays happen regardless of how things are going in the game. RB Trent Richardson is probably getting the ball a bit more in this one as well, knowing that he only touched it 11 times on the ground last week and made it known that he was unhappy about it.

The Broncos have only scored less than 26 points in a game once since Week 5, and they haven’t scored fewer than 17 in a game all year long. If they are going to get into at least the mid-20s, there is a great chance that this one is going to reach the ‘total’ as well. This is a perfect in-game teaser, though I do recommend teasing the Browns with anything you can find that makes sense in Week 16.

The 2012 NFL schedule is back, and here at Cappers Info, we’ll be looking at some of the best games on the docket each and every week, as we try to make the most money possible off of the Week 16 odds for the NFL. Join us on Sunday, as we make our Cleveland Browns @ Denver Broncos free picks and predictions for what should be a great clash on the gridiron.

Week 16 NFL Picks: Cleveland Browns @ Denver Broncos
Date: Sunday, December 23rd, 4:05 ET
Location: Sports Authority Field at Mile High
NFL Betting Odds: Denver -13.5
Browns @ Broncos On TV: CBS

The Browns and Broncos have met five times since the reincarnation of the Cleveland franchise, and three of the five games have been awfully close encounters. That being said, Denver is 4-1 ATS in those five games, and it is 5-0 SU. The hope is that all of that continues in this one. The Broncos are as hot as could be, going 6-3 ATS and 9-0 SU in their last nine games, and they are right on the verge of the No. 2 seed in the playoffs in the AFC. Cleveland had really done a great job of sticking around in games this year until last week when it was clocked by the Washington Redskins. The Browns are expected to do a heck of a lot better this time around for sure, knowing that they had won their previous three games and covered their previous four. QB Brandon Weeden is going to have a difficult time keeping up with QB Peyton Manning, but when push comes to shove, he probably only needs to get to around 20 points or so in this game. That’s easier said than done, but we do think that this Denver secondary is vulnerable and could be hit for a few big plays.

Browns @ Broncos Pick: Cleveland Browns +13.5
Browns @ Broncos Score Prediction: Denver 30 – Cleveland 20

NFL betting fans are running to their online sportsbooks to place their Washington Redskins vs. Cleveland Browns bets and predictions, and here at Cappers Info, we are making our Sunday football picks for this encounter.

Week 15 Football Picks: Washington Redskins @ Cleveland Browns
Date: Sunday, December 16th, 1:00 ET
Location: Cleveland Browns Stadium, Cleveland, OH
NFL Betting Lines: Washington -1
Redskins vs. Browns On TV: FOX

This is obviously a tough one to handicap, knowing that the status of QB Robert Griffin III is still up in the air and likely will be until right around game time on Sunday. However, what we definitely can work with is the fact that the Browns have been pretty darn good over the course of the last few games. Granted, they really haven’t beaten any of the truly big boys, but their playoff chances are at least still somewhat existent. Winning this one and getting some help can at least keep them alive, though obviously, that’s really not a realistic goal at this point. QB Brandon Weeden and RB Trent Richardson are getting better and better, and this team is trying to prove that it is perhaps an elite receiver and a couple offensive linemen away from really being dynamic. Washington has been great, but this is a tough road test against one of these teams that is going to stay hungry for the rest of the year. We think that the Browns are going to win their final home game of the year, regardless of whether it is RG3 or QB Kirk Cousins calling the shots for the Skins.

Redskins @ Browns Pick: Cleveland Browns +1
Washington @ Cleveland Score Prediction: Cleveland 19 – Washington 16

The Cleveland Browns and the Oakland Raiders are going to square off in Week 13 of the NFL betting campaign. Join us here at Cappers Info, as we make our predictions for football for what should be a great game on Sunday.

Week 13 NFL Picks: Cleveland Browns @ Oakland Raiders
Date: Sunday, December 2nd, 4:25 ET
Location: O.co Coliseum, Oakland, CA
Week 13 Betting Odds: Cleveland -1
Browns vs. Raiders Live TV: CBS

QB Brandon Weeden has been cleared to play, and he is going to be out there on Sunday when his Browns take on the Raiders. The Black Hole is going to be rocking, but everyone there knows that this game is better served lost than won, knowing that the loser is going to get a higher pick in the NFL Draft as a result. Sure, winning out could get either of these teams into the playoffs with some help, but that just isn’t all that likely. The Browns have covered five of the last six in this series dating back to 2003, and that’s a good sign for a team that has really played solid ball over the course of the last several weeks. Cleveland is one of the better ATS teams this year, and it is coming off of a game in which it forced eight turnovers against the Pittsburgh Steelers. This should be a rare road win for the Browns all the way over at the Black Hole.

Browns @ Raiders Pick: Cleveland Browns -1
Browns @ Raiders Score Prediction: Cleveland 20 – Oakland 14

BovadaThe Pittsburgh Steelers and the Cleveland Browns are set to kick off their Week 12 NFL betting clash on Sunday 11/25, and I’m set to make my football pick for the affair at Cleveland Browns Stadium. Kickoff is set for 1:00 ET, and I’ve got the perfect NFL pick for this outstanding duel on the gridiron.

Pittsburgh Steelers (6-4, 4-5-1 ATS) pk
Cleveland Browns (2-8, 5-4-1 ATS) pk
Over/Under 34

Holy teasers, Batman! Every now and again, the oddsmakers get a line that is just so right that I just have to tease the whole game and hope that they got this one right. Knowing that I can get seven on both sides of this one and a total going between 27 and 41 is just insane, but it becomes all the more crazy, knowing that I can get 7.5 on my teasers at -135.

The matchup here in this game is simple: The Browns don’t have a ton of offense and shouldn’t be able to get all that much going against the Steelers. Pittsburgh is going to have no choice but to run the ball as well, though QB Charlie Batch will make his share of plays to boot.

The last two in this series have both stayed insanely low scoring, knowing that the average number of points per game has been just 20.5. However, this is clearly, clearly a spot where there should be more than that. Batch will hit a home run at some point. RB Trent Richardson will find the end zone. So will a Pittsburgh running back. And a couple field goals will take care of it from there from my standpoint. Very, very few NFL games ultimately don’t get into the high-20s, and this should be no exception. Look for a 17-14 or 20-17 type of final score to give me the cash. I’m going to round robin all of these together as well, but here’s the basis of the play:

Week 12 NFL Picks: Pittsburgh Steelers @ Cleveland Browns
Date: Sunday, November 25th, 1:00 ET
Location: Cleveland Browns Stadium, Cleveland, OH
Week 12 Betting Odds: Pittsburgh -1
Pittsburgh vs. Cleveland Live TV: CBS

We have a heck of a lot more confidence in QB Charlie Batch leading the Pittsburgh effort than we did with QB Byron Leftwich. Batch is a seasoned veteran, and he knows what it’s going to take to come on the road and win a game like this one. We know that he isn’t going to be able to do this every single week, but he has the goods on the ground at this point to manage the game properly. Batch will only be asked to throw the ball 25 times in this one, and the defense and the ground game will be expected to do the rest. Cleveland is a solid team that is a heck of a lot better than a 2-8 record suggests, but the oddsmakers have caught onto this. The Browns will at least keep this one close for some time, and they very well could win it, but we think that the percentage play lies on the relatively public Steelers to walk out of the Dawg Pound with a ‘W’ when push comes to shove.

Week 11 pointspreads are out, and here at Cappers Info, we are set to analyze the NFL odds for one of the top games on the slate. The Cleveland Browns vs. Dallas Cowboys odds are posted, and we are set to make our NFL picks for another great game.

Week 11 NFL Picks: Cleveland Browns @ Dallas Cowboys
Date: Sunday, November 18th, 1:00 ET
Location: Dallas Cowboys Stadium, Arlington, TX
Week 11 Betting Odds: Dallas -7.5
Cleveland vs. Dallas Live TV: CBS

There are two philosophies in this game, though both are difficult to subscribe to. The first suggests that the Cowboys could be on their way to making a great run to the playoffs off of the big win over the Eagles. However, the other philosophy suggests that the team just got fortunate last week against another team that is a true train wreck right now, and matters really aren’t fixed. In this case, we prefer the latter, knowing that the defensive backfield for the Browns is one of the most underrated units in football. QB Tony Romo still has a propensity to throw pick after pick, especially when his team is in a situation to put a team away or to get back in a game. Cleveland has found a way to stick around in every single game that it has played this year, and this is another situation where it should be able to hang within a touchdown or so.

Browns @ Cowboys Pick: Cleveland Browns +7.5
Browns @ Cowboys Score Prediction: Dallas 23 – Cleveland 17

The 2012 NFL schedule is back, and here at Cappers Info, we’ll be looking at some of the best games on the docket each and every week, as we try to make the most money possible off of the Week 9 odds for the NFL. Join us on Sunday, as we make our Baltimore Ravens @ Cleveland Browns free picks and predictions for what should be a great clash on the gridiron.

Week 9 NFL Picks: Baltimore Ravens @ Cleveland Browns
Date: Sunday, November 4th, 1:00 ET
Location: Cleveland Browns Stadium, Cleveland, OH
NFL Betting Odds: Baltimore -3.5
Ravens @ Browns On TV: CBS

It has been quite some time since Cleveland beat the Ravens, but this might be the lucky day for the boys from the Dawg Pound. This was a relatively close game when these two teams met the first time, as the Browns only lost by a touchdown. Now, the scene shifts back to Cleveland, where the Browns have played well this year. Remember that the first game was played with LB Ray Lewis and DB LaDarius Webb in the fold, and there are a heck of a lot of players that are banged up for the Ravens as well. RB Trent Richardson should be good to go, and both DT Phil Taylor and WR Mohamed Massaquoi should be back in the fold as well. This seems like the perfect spot for an upset, as the race in the AFC North becomes a whole heck of a lot closer.

Ravens @ Browns Pick: Cleveland Browns +3.5

The San Diego Chargers and the Cleveland Browns are going to square off in Week 8 of the NFL betting campaign. Join us here at Cappers Info, as we make our predictions for football for what should be a great game on Sunday.

Week 8 NFL Picks: San Diego Chargers @ Cleveland Browns
Date: Sunday, October 28th, 1:00 ET
Location: Cleveland Browns Stadium, Cleveland, OH
Week 8 Betting Odds: San Diego -3
Chargers vs. Browns Live TV: CBS

Be very careful here, San Diego. The Chargers are coming on the road for a de facto 10:00 AM start time. The weather might be a bit blustery, which could ultimately put the ball in the hands of RB Ryan Mathews more, but QB Philip Rivers less. Cleveland is a 1-6 team with some spunk and some attitude, and with new ownership virtually in place, the team is going to want to impress, knowing that every single job from the bottom all the way to the top is going to be up for review at this point. Over 70% of the betting public is backing San Diego, a sure sign that something fishy is going on, and it is quite clear that the Browns are going to be insanely sharp. Keep a close eye on the injury report and make sure that RB Trent Richardson is playing on Sunday, but assuming that he is good to go, this one absolutely reeks of an upset to us.

Chargers @ Browns Pick: Cleveland Browns +3
Chargers @ Browns Score Prediction: Cleveland 24 – San Diego 21

Making sports betting picks is one of my specialties, and today at Cappers Info, I’m making my Sunday Football Tipster pick based upon the football trends and NFL odds for the Cleveland Browns vs. Indianapolis Colts game on Sunday, October 21st at Lucas Oil Stadium at 1:00 p.m. ET.

Cleveland Browns (1-5, 3-2-1 ATS) +2.5
Indianapolis Colts (2-3, 2-3 ATS) -2.5
Over/Under 45.5

Emotions can only carry you so far. It was emotion that led the Colts to the comeback win against the Packers two weeks ago, and you could tell last week in the loss to the Jets on the road that that emotion of “Chuck Strong” had worn off. Now the stingy Browns come to town in a game that is likely going to prove to be really tough.

The Browns have had a great history playing against the Colts, even back in the days when QB Peyton Manning was the quarterback. Indy has only averaged 12.8 points per game over the course of the last four in this series, and this Cleveland defense isn’t going to just get trampled in all likelihood. In that stretch, the Colts are just 1-2-1, and that isn’t going to cut it either.

The oddsmakers have just gotten this one wrong as I see it. The road team is 4-0-1 ATS in the last five in this series, and the Browns are 5-1-1 ATS in their last seven road games. Meanwhile, Indy is still just 5-11 ATS in its last 16 games in conference, and last week’s blowout loss to a bad New York outfit proved just how suspect this squad really is when push comes to shove. Expect to see the Brownies come to town and beat up the Colts.

Browns @ Colts Tips: Cleveland +2.5

The Cleveland Browns and the Indianapolis Colts are going to square off in Week 7 of the NFL betting campaign. Join us here at Cappers Info, as we make our predictions for football for what should be a great game on Sunday.

Week 7 NFL Picks: Cleveland Browns @ Indianapolis Colts
Date: Sunday, October 21st, 1:00 ET
Location: Lucas Oil Stadium, Indianapolis, IN
Week 7 Betting Odds: Indianapolis -2
Browns vs. Colts Live TV: CBS

What’s lost about the Browns thus far this year is that they really have been a competitive team. In spite of the fact that QB Brandon Weeden turned the ball over a ton, the squad should have beaten the Eagles in Week 1. The Browns had the Giants dead to rights two weeks ago before falling apart. Buffalo could have been beaten. Cincinnati was sweating the whole way through. Cleveland isn’t all that bad. Sure, it isn’t a playoff team yet, but with DB Joe Haden back in the fold, the squad could be mediocre and might not even finish last in the AFC North this year. That being said, the Colts have overachieved this year in our eyes, and we think that they are well on their way to a disappointing next three months of the campaign. Sure, QB Andrew Luck is great and all, but remember that this is the same team that lost to Jacksonville. Right. That Jacksonville team that has just one win this year. We think that the wrong team is favored in this one.

Browns @ Colts Pick: Cleveland Browns +2
Browns @ Colts Score Prediction: Cleveland 19 – Indianapolis 17
