Picks for 12/2/24
NFL
8:15 PM EST
Rotation # 483
Browns +6.5 over Broncos (loss)
Last year, the Broncos finished with a losing record, and the Browns had an 11-win season. The tables have turned, and the Broncos are winning while the Browns are struggling. Cleveland had the most challenging schedule in the NFL coming into the season. It’s certainly no excuse for their poor play. The Broncos are the best team in the NFL against the spread, so naturally, the oddsmakers will pump up their betting lines due to unbalanced action placed on them. QB Bo Nix has looked great, but he is only a rookie. There is value in wagering on the underdog. Denver has a great offensive line that doesn’t allow much pressure, but Myles Garrett and the deep Browns defensive line will bring the heat. Denzel Ward is an outstanding corner player who can disrupt opposing passing attacks. The Browns can run the ball against the Broncos’ front seven. The Browns are used to smash-mouth football games from playing in the AFC North. If Nick Chubb stays healthy, the Browns can play power football in cold conditions to keep this contest close. Take Cleveland.
