Browns favored vs. Jets; ends 18-game home underdog streak

With a record of 1-35-1 over their team's past 37 games, Cleveland Browns fans haven't had much to cheer for.

Maybe Las Vegas can change that.

Cleveland is currently a three-point favorite at Nevada sportsbooks for Thursday night's game against the New York Jets-- the firsttime since Week 14 of the 2015 season that the Browns are poised to be a home favorite.

Johnny Manziel started that 2015 game and led Cleveland to a 24-10 victory over the San Francisco 49ers. Since then, Cleveland has played 18 straight home games as an underdog, the third-longest streak in the past 15 seasons.

The Browns have only been favored once in that time span: a Week 3 road game against the Indianapolis Coltsin 2017. Cleveland was a 1.5-point favorite but lost 31-28 to Jacoby Brissett and the Colts.

The Browns are one of eight teams this season to be 2-0 against the spread.

ESPN's FPI has the Browns (0-1-1) favored by 3.8 points against the Jets (1-1).
