Cleveland is 3-4 and lost earlier to them by 18. What did you expect the line to be?

Cleveland should at least be at -3/-3.5 considering since then, Cleveland has beaten NYG and JAX, kept it close with Washington.

By your logic, if Baltimore beat them by 18 last time, why isn't Baltimore the favorite?

this line has to be a FG. I was a little surprise that it wasn't

Flacco should struggle in the pound.

conventional thinking says clev here

-3.5?

Tell me when Cleveland was last a home divisional favorite at all, let alone -3.5?

Because although the record indicates otherwise, Cleveland is the better team here. Balltimore also has potentially 3-4 DB's that will not be in the rotation due to injury and they are not good with the deep ball. Anderson can hit the deep ball. Flacco has 3 TD's vs 7 INT's. They are 4-3 despite him.

Better record and a win by 18 doesn't make you the better team, and the line reflects that.

Well you got me there-- my point is, in my mind, this line stinks. For the reason you just mentioned and why isn't Baltimore a favorite here? It just feels like vegas is begging you take cleveland.

As a cleveland fan(yes hard to admit) I would take baltimore with the way anderson is playing this year they go very simple short passes handoffs you get the idea they coddle him early in the game simple will not win against an agressive defense.
