NFL Betting Picks - Week 8 AFC North Picks

Cleveland Browns @ Chicago Bears

NFL betting odds: Bears -13

The Cleveland Browns and Chicago Bears are meeting up in one of the biggest mismatches of the week. The Browns are one of the worst teams in the NFL and there is already media and fan bases calling for Eric Mangini's head.

The Browns have been absolutely abysmal on offense and there are no signs that it will turn around for them. The Browns are averaging just 10.3 points per game and they haven't even hit double figures in four of their seven games.

The Chicago Bears are fresh off their worst performance of the season and you can bet that they will be angry. They were blown out 45-10 by the Cincinnati Bengals and were embarssed on several plays. This week, the matchups are in their favor and they should be the ones dominating.

The Bears have been a different team at home versus on the road so look for them to bounce-back now that they are back at Soldier Field. They have already played four road games this year and just two home games, so that should be a good sign the rest of the way for them. The are 2-0 at home and 1-3 on the road.

NFL picks:  Bears -13

Denver Broncos @ Baltimore Ravens

World Series betting odds: Ravens -3.5

The Denver Broncos are riding high right now and are one of three remaining teams that are undefeated on the year. The Broncos have won all six of their contests and are flying high after back-to-back wins against the New England Patriots and their biggest division rival, the San Diego Chargers. Now the Broncos will experience another tough challenge as they head on the road to Baltimore to face the desperate Ravens.

The Ravens were perfect for the first three weeks of the season but they have come crashing back to reality. The Ravens have lost their last three games - all in close fashion - and are now in danger of falling below .500 for the first time this season. The Ravens, who opened with wins against Kansas City, San Diego and Cleveland, have lost three straight tight contests to New England, Cincinnati and Minnesota.

Look for them to bounce back in this game as both teams are fairly evenly matched. The Ravens just need this game more.
