You can tell ESPN staff writer Bill Barnwell is no Cleveland Browns fan.
In a recent article of his, he tried to estimate what the Las Vegas oddsmakers will set as the “average expectation” for each one of the thirty-two NFL teams for the 2019-20 season, and his projected over/under for Browns wins is not exactly promising. Or flattering.
Barnwell thinks Vegas will set the 2019-20 Browns over/under for wins at 7.5.
And get this, he believes the over will be even money and the under will be -120.
For you non-gamblers, that means Billy Boy doesn’t believe the Dorsey-Baker-Kitchens Browns will do better than a 7-9 win-loss record in 2019, meaning they will not improve on last season’s 7-8-1.
