Browns vs Vikings Prediction

I’m not excited to back the Vikings in the favorite role as they’re limited offensively due to subpar quarterback play, and the defense has had issues stopping the run. However, the Browns have issues of their own, and the Vikings have a huge advantage staying in London for a second straight week.

It’s the Browns who have to adjust to the travel, and you can argue they’re the worst offense in the league right now. Flacco has taken a step back and this has been a tough watch through 4 games, even their upset win over the Packers. The travel edge is why I’m going to lay the points with the Vikings.
