Browns Sink to 4% AFC North Odds as Deshaun Watson Reclaims Starting Job

1 articles · Updated · cleveland.com · Aug 27

Kalshi traders give Cleveland just a 4% chance to win the AFC North, the lowest in the division, after the Browns confirmed Deshaun Watson as their starting quarterback.
That bleak view follows Watson’s heavily criticized preseason comments and poor recent form, which further eroded support from fans who had hoped to see second-year quarterback Shedeur Sanders.
Prediction markets also place the Browns among the NFL’s weakest teams, with a 10% chance of finishing with the worst record and a 9% chance of ending up with the No. 1 pick.
Baltimore leads the division market at 48%, followed by Cincinnati at 34% and Pittsburgh at 17%, underscoring how little confidence traders have in Cleveland entering the season.
