I think both these statements can be true. The Browns have the best defense in the league, the Browns defense is a little overrated. I've seen a lot of "look what they did to GB last week, and the Bengals in week 1" while conveniently leaving out the Ravens dropping 41 on them in week 2. The Lions are closer to the Ravens on offense than they are the Packers.
I have a hard time seeing the Browns offense doing much of anything in this one. Flacco can't move anymore, and they are down to maybe their 4th OT already. Going against Hutchinson.
Browns can be attacked over the middle. Love just didn't hit the throws, and Burrow didn't have time due to his OL. Lamar was able to, and I suspect Goff will be able to, likely resulting in another nice Amon-Ra game. I'd love to see the Lions put more on the plate of TeSlaa, as he'd impressed whenever he's seen the field. I do think the Browns can slow the run game quite a bit. Might be a little more of a TD or bust game for the Lions RBs.
I think the over is too high, and I think the Lions cover easily. This feels like a game that could be 31-6. Love this game as a survivor pick.
