The Cleveland Browns have a big chance to get right in Week 9 on their home field. 

The Browns (4-3) are welcoming in the Arizona Cardinals (1-7) following their loss to the Seattle Seahawks on the road. It’ll be a chance for the Browns to shake the ending of that Seahawks game off where they lost in the final minute of the game.

As of lunchtime on Tuesday, the betting line sits at -7.5 in favor of the Browns, according to FanDuel. The over/under comes in at 37.5 for this game.

Even with the questions around who will be under center for the Browns, Cleveland is still favored by more than a touchdown. There’s a very real chance we see P.J. Walker again if Deshaun Watson is idle again this week.

On the other hand, there is a legit shot that the Browns will be seeing fifth-round rookie Clayton Tune make his NFL debut at quarterback in Week 9. Instead of Joshua Dobbs who started the first eight games, the Cardinals are going to turn to the rookie if Kyler Murray is not ready.

The defense will be looking forward to getting to matchup with a rookie in his first start. It looks like the Browns will be easy money-line picks in Week 9, if that’s your kind of thing.
