BROWNS (5-3) at BENGALS (5-2-1), 8:25 p.m.
LINE: Bengals by 6; O/U: 45
TV: NFL. Radio: WCBS (880)
You could not get two more different teams at home and on the road here. The Bengals are 13-0-1 overall in their last 14 regular-season home games, and are 15-5 against the spread (ATS) in their last 20 home games. The Brownies have dropped 17 straight AFC North road games, the longest drought by a team vs. its division since the 1970 NFL merger. Ouch! However, I'll take a shot with the visiting team in a divisional game on a short week.
The pick: Browns
