Oddsmakers currently have the Bengals listed as 6-point favorites versus the Browns, while the game’s total is sitting at 43½.
Green caught three passes for 44 yards and had another touchdown nullified by penalty in his first game in a month since suffering a toe injury. Running back Giovani Bernard (ribs, shoulder) is questionable but his replacement, Jeremy Hill, rushed for 154 yards and a pair of scores last week. It will be an emotional night for defensive tackle Devon Still, whose daughter drew headlines with her battle with cancer and is expected to attend Thursday’s game.
Last time out for Cincinnati, they were a 33-23 winner as they battled the Jaguars at home. The Bengals earned a push in the match as a -10-point favorite, while 56 combined points moved the game OVER for totals bettors.

Lead back Ben Tate has rushed for just 65 yards in his past three games, prompting the Browns to re-evaluate its backfield roles. Terrance West actually had more touches than Tate last week and scored on a short pass in Cleveland’s narrow win over Tampa Bay. The Browns have not recovered from the loss of center Alex Mack to a broken leg, but Brian Hoyer has continued to impress and threw for 300 yards and two scores against the Bucs.
In their last action, Cleveland was a 22-17 winner at home against the Buccaneers. They failed to cover the -6.5-point spread as favorites, while the combined score (39) was profitable news for UNDER bettors.
