AAA's EARLY *Bucs/Browns* TOTAL BLOCKBUSTER! 20-12 (63%) ALL NFL L6 SUNDAYS!
(NFL) Tampa Bay vs. Cleveland,
Total: 43.00 | -107.00 Under
Result: Loss
This is an 8* TOTAL BLOCKBUSTER on the OVER between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Cleveland Browns.

Both of these teams have struggled at times to put points on the board this year, but when the smoke clears at the end of this one, I look for this total to sneak above the posted number. Cleveland is 4-3 and comes into November with a winning record for the first time in seven seasons, last week it would pull away for the 23-13 victory over the Raiders. The Browns however can't be satisfied with the way they've played the last two weeks, the 39 rushing yards they posted in the win over Oakland were the team's fewest in more than two years; and note that Cleveland laid an egg in its 24-6 loss at previously winless Jacksonville the week before that. But despite all of that, the Browns are very much in the race for the NFC North right now despite a defense which is ranked 29th overall, allowing an average of almost 396 YPG. The home side will be sticking with QB Brian Hoyer, who is 7-3 as a starter, so far he has just two INT's to eight TD's. Tampa will be hungry for a win here and will be anxious to take advantage of the Browns' porous secondary; the Bucs are coming off a frustrating 19-13 loss to the Vikes last week in which a series of blunders near the end of the game resulted in the setback. Tampa is close to breaking through though, note that four of its six defeats have been by six point or fewer. And note that Tampa has seen the total go OVER the number in all three of its road games so far this year, while Cleveland has seen it eclipse the number in six of its last nine non-conference contests. I expect these teams to open up the playbook and look for this total to go OVER the number as the game comes down the stretch.
