The Cleveland Browns opened as 7.5-point underdogs on the road against the Cincinnati Bengals ahead of their Week 18 match-up, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. The over/under on the game is 44.5.

The Browns (4-12) are coming off of a 13-6 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. It was a game that the Steelers desperately needed to clinch the AFC North, but the Browns’ defense played tough, not allowing a touchdown to Aaron Rodgers and company, even in the final moments as CB Denzel Ward came up big. QB Shedeur Sanders is 1-0 against the Steelers, although DE Myles Garrett just missed breaking the sack record.

The Bengals (6-10) blew out the Arizona Cardinals 37-14, their second strong offensive showing in as many weeks. The game doesn’t mean anything for either team, but they’re both still ready to fight to finish the season strong.

The over/under for the game is 44.5. All eyes from a national standpoint will be on whether Myles Garrett will break the sack record — he’s had big games against the Bengals before, so we’ll see.
