NFL Picks And Predictions Week 12: Browns Vs. Bengals

The Cincinnati Bengals host the Cleveland Browns on Sunday in a game that is expected to be dominated by the home team.

The Cincinnati Bengals enter Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns with a hold on a Wild Card spot. The Browns, though, have been one of the more disappointing teams this season, as they were expected to have a breakout season. The Bengals won the season opener against the Browns, and the experts are predicting a second Bengals victory. ESPN's 10 experts went with the Bengals in a clean sweep.

Over at CBSSports.com, the five experts pick the Bengals in a straight pick ‘em, but things change slightly when they pick against the spread. Two members of the panel don’t think the Bengals will cover the 7-1/2 point spread. With the decrepit state of Cleveland’s offense and the strong defense of the Bengals, Cincinnati could certainly cover that spread.

The experts look to have this one right with their selections of the Bengals.
