The Cleveland Browns betting odds for 2011-2012 will focus mostly on the regular season win total. This is a team in transition with a new head coach in Pat Shurmur and plenty of young talent that should help make 2013 interesting.
Being lumped in a division with the Pittsburgh Steelers will make it tough for the Browns to win this division until Pittsburgh happens to have another epic meltdown. Don’t count on it.
Even if the Steelers somehow fall flat, there are the equally substantial Baltimore Ravens to contend with.
The Steelers had odds of winning the AFC North at -120 while Baltimore comes in with some pretty good value at +120, better than even odds. Cleveland, which we believe will be a nonfactor in the division category, was listed with odds of 8/1. For the record, the Cincinnati Bengals were coming in with odds of 20/1 to win the AFC North division in 2011.
The oddsmakers have Cleveland winning 6.5 games this upcoming season and the line is even on both the OVER and the UNDER.
