The sportsbook and online sport betting opened up with Tampa Bay as a 3-point favorite and with a total of 37. Kickoff is at 1:05 PM Eastern.

The Browns had a highly effective offseason and training camp. The big addition was veteran quarterback Jake Delhomme from the Carolina Panthers. Delhomme’s career crashed a year ago as he had the worst year of his career. Delhomme has looked newly polished and highly effective thus far in Cleveland.

He has furthermore introduced a much desired veteran presence to the young Cleveland squad and a work ethos that has rubbed off on the rest of the squad. “Being in a new place is the biggest factor in putting last season behind me,” explained Delhomme. “I believe in having fun. We’re out there playing a kid’s game. I’m having a whole lot of fun.” Delhomme was razor sharp in preseason as he completed 38 out of 48 passes. Fellow team members have been highly supportive of Delhomme.

“What’s key to me is leading the offense,” explained wideout Joshua Cribbs. “He leads the team well and that’s what we look for him to do and he’s doing a good job.” The Browns have defeated the NFL odds in 8 from their last 11 matches as an long shot with 5 straight payouts.

Tampa Bay is arriving from a 3-13 year in which rookie QB Josh Freeman had a tough year of the on the job training. The goal for the Bucs is 10 wins this year, according to head coach Raheem Morris. Freeman was 3-6 as the starter a year ago but is all set for 2010. “It’s my team and I want to win,” explained Freeman.

“I want to get things done the right way.” Tampa Bay has defeated the NFL lines in just 2 from their last 7 matches as a favorite with 3 consecutive failures going into this competition in that role.
