My 100 Dime winner for this evening is on the OVER in the AFC showdown between the Indianapolis Colts and Cincinnati Bengals. And as I release this game at 8 a.m. eastern, I see the line in this game is 43 points
OC Dooley:1 UNIT” NFL EARLY CARD INTANGIBLE (Browns +10 at Patriots in a 1:00 eastenr kickoff): In what has been yet another in a long line of disappointing campaigns Cleveland hit an absolute low-point a week ago at home in front of their own fans why they lost against lowly Jacksonville where an impotent Jaguars offense put more than 30 points on the scoreboard. One would think that the humiliated Browns are in line for another pounding today considering that New England can officially wrap up yet another AFC East divisional crown. In addition Tom Brady and company through the years have been virtually unbeatable (16-1 in the month of December) at this late stage of the campaign. But statistically the Cleveland defense has had an overall solid season while the offense is bolstered by Josh Gordon who just set an all-time NFL record for most receiving yards (498) in a two-game span. What has made Gordon’s performance even more shocking is the fact that due to constant injuries the Browns have had to rotate their quarterbacks almost on a weekly basis. Veteran Jason Campbell is slated to return to the helm today as he has just been cleared (concussion) by the league and doctors. It is a bit difficult to lay double-digits with New England who in the past three weeks has been outscored by a whopping 34-to-7 count in the opening quarter alone. As previously mentioned even though the team is in a current 1-6 slump, the Cleveland defense has performed well enough to lead to a low-balled posted total. My research indicates that in the past twenty years when the total has been relatively low (between 45’ and 49 points) New England has gone a dismal 10-24 ATS/HOME
