Any thoughts on Cle - 3.5 against Det. ???


Det looked horrible. Gave up 8 sacks and threw 2 interceptions. Managed 6 points. Det only netted 166 total yards. The ravens defense is good but the starters didnt play the whole game.

DETROIT Passing Statistics:
Joey Harrington: 12-21 passes for 117 yards, 0 TDs and 2 interceptions.
Mike McMahon: 8-20 passes for 65 yards, 0 TDs and 1 interceptions.


Cle looked much better. 27 pts 383 total yards.
ok numbers for first Preaseason:
CLEVELAND Passing Statistics:
Tim Couch: 7-9 passes for 138 yards, 1 TDs and 0 interceptions.
Kelly Holcomb: 7-10 passes for 100 yards, 1 TDs and 0 interceptions

Cle will want to look good for fans at home.

Cle 24 Det 7

and you are correct.....the ravens are crippled on offense and defense and they really dominated detroit....the lions 2 young qbs looked clueless(as did chris redman for the ravens).....i think the browns look like the best play on the board....they are notoiously bad home favorites but detroit is a long way from being even a mid-tier team and those young qbs are going to experience some serious growing pains vs a browns defense that is better than what the ravens put on the field....but,do yourself a favor and buy the half point.....also,look at the jets laying 1.5 vs ravens....the ravens will again have difficulty scoring points.....and the jets are a notoriously strong road team....also unders in both games......the browns minus 3 looks like the cream....nice observation.
