The Arizona Cardinals are trailing the Cleveland Browns heading into halftime in a game that has been no offense, all defenses. Despite this game being a little sloppy and for a lack of better words, boring, we’re going to try and win some money. The Cardinals offense has been shut down so far in this game, and I think that will continue. I also think the Browns are going to try and grow this lead in the second half and put some more points on the board.

Neither Clayton Tune nor Deshaun Watson has been able to get it going in the air. In fact, Tune only has 22 yards to this point in the game, and one interception. Tune currently has a passing yards line set at 75.5 for the second half and I think he goes way under. Arizona hasn’t been able to pass the ball all game or move the ball at all for that matter.
Watson also has a passing yards for the second half line I like. For Watson I actually like the over. The Browns QB has thrown for 136 yards in the first half, and has a line set at 85.5 set for the second half. I think Watson will go over that mark. Amari Cooper has played really well today, and I think the Browns try to put some points on the board in the second half.
Rushing Props
Kareem Hunt currently has a lower rushing yards line than Jerome Ford for the second half, and I like Hunts yards line. Hunt has gotten six carries to Ford’s six. Cleveland’s running back has a rushing yards line set at 19.5 and I like the over. I think the Browns offense might wake up in the second half to this Arizona defense.
Keontay Ingram has gotten four carries out of the backfield for a Cards offense that hasn’t been on the field much. Arizona’s running back has a yards line set at 16.5 for the second half and I like the under. Ingram hasn’t been on the field enough so far to get the ground game going. When you also weigh in the Browns defensive line, I believe he goes under.
Receiving Props
Marquise Brown is leading the Cardinals receiving core in targets, but they can’t throw the ball. Tune has thrown for just 22 yards in the first half. Brown has only four yards on two receptions. I think his line set at 23.5 yards in the second half is going to go way under. Arizona has only completed five passes so far in this game. Their offense is just looking abysmal, and I don’t think anything changes.
Amari Cooper on the other hand has been great in the first half. Cooper has 73 yards and a touchdown so far and I like his second half over. Cooper has a second half receiving yards line set at 21.5 and he’s shown he can very well do that in one catch. I think the Browns come out trying to put the Cardinals away in the third quarter.
