The Chicago Bears (5-8) and Cleveland Browns (8-5) meet Sunday for a Week 15 matchup at Cleveland Browns Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Bears vs. Browns odds, and'make our expert NFL picks and predictions.
The Bears fell to 2-7 straight up (SU) back on Nov. 5, but instead of waving the white flag, Chicago has soldiered on, pun totally intended. The Bears have picked up 3 wins in the past 4 games, including an impressive 28-13 victory over the 1st-place Detroit Lions in Week 14, covering as 3-point underdogs as the Under (44.5) cashed. The total has gone low in 5 of the past 6 games overall.
The Browns picked up a 31-27 win against the Jacksonville Jaguars last Sunday, led by QB Joe Flacco. The team is so smitten with the veteran that it inked him to a 1-year contract extension. Cleveland is squarely in the mix in the AFC playoff picture, and the former Super Bowl MVP has the Browns thinking big again. The Browns have won and covered 4 in a row at home.
The weather forecast calls for an 80 percent chance of rain showers at kickoff with temperatures in the upper 40s and winds blowing from 12-15 mph, gusting to 20-25 mph off of Lake Erie.
