Time to wrap up Week 8 of the NFL season with a Monday Day Football matchup in the Battle of Ohio. The Cincinnati Bengals will travel up 71 North to Cleveland to take on the Browns. The Bengals are riding high after winning two straight. The Browns have now lost four in a row and will look to get their season back on track.
Here are my two best player props for the game this Monday night!
Nick Chubb Over 80.5 Rushing Yards
(PointsBet -115)
Nick Chubb has been one of the few bright spots for the Cleveland Browns this year. He has topped 80 yards in all but one game this season. If the Browns want to win this game, they will need to pound the ball with Chubb in order to keep the explosive Bengals offense off the field.
Currently, Chubb ranks 8th in the NFL with 5.9 yards per carry. I would expect Chubb to carry the ball at least 20 times at home against a Bengals run defense that is in the bottom half of the NFL giving up 4.6 yards per carry. With those 20 carries, Chubb should be able to top 80 yards with ease.
Joe Burrow over 263.5 Passing Yards
(FanDuel, -110)
Joe Burrow is on fire! He has been lighting up defenses in the past few weeks. He threw for 300 yards against the Saints and 481 yards against the Falcons. He is seeing the field very well at the moment. Even with Ja’Marr Chase out, I expect Burrow to get plenty of opportunities to throw for 300 yards against a Browns secondary that has not been good all year.
It appears starting CB Denzel Ward will be out with a concussion, too. The Browns just simply cannot stop the pass, ranking in the bottom 10 in the league in yards per attempt. I expect Burrow and the Bengals to have a big day on an underachieving Browns secondary.
