BROWNS at BENGALS

1 p.m., Bengals by 8, 38

HANK’S HONEYS: Hapless Browns let another ATS win get away late vs. Jags. Still, they have been in ballgames until the end the last two weeks and are facing a Cincy team that presents them with their best chance to avoid an 0-16 season. Bengals cruised in the first meeting, 31-7, as Andy Dalton finally got untracked and they’ve covered their last five games in the rivalry. But Browns can hang with the Bengals if they can hang onto the ball. The Bengals offense is just slightly better, last in the league in yards per game. It seems every time Marvin Lewis’ Bengals are expected to win big, they lay an egg. They’ll win, just not by more than a TD. IF I WERE A BETTING MAN: Browns and the under.
