The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are a 79.5% moneyline favorite over the Cleveland Browns (79% on Kalshi, 80% on Polymarket) for their Week 2 meeting at Raymond James Stadium on Sunday, September 20, with Cleveland at 21% on both venues. Both teams enter 0-1, and the spread ladder centers the game near Tampa Bay by 8, with the full-game total priced as a coin flip at 41.5 points. The two venues sit within a point of each other on the moneyline, so this board reads as consensus, not disagreement.
Both teams lost in Week 1, but not in the same way. Tampa Bay (0-1) fell 33-27 at Cincinnati, a one-score road loss. Cleveland (0-1) lost 34-10 at Jacksonville, a 24-point margin that the market is clearly carrying into this game. Kickoff is 1:00 PM ET on CBS in the Sunday early window, with Tampa Bay at home. Season-long markets for both clubs live on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers hub and the Cleveland Browns hub, and the rest of the Week 2 slate is on today's NFL board.
The moneyline is the cleanest read. As of the evening of September 16, Tampa Bay is 79% on Kalshi and 80% on Polymarket, an implied 79.5% average, with Cleveland at 21% on both. A one-point gap is inside normal venue noise, so there is no cross-platform value spot on the winner market.
The spread ladder says the same thing in points. Tampa Bay -7.5 trades at 53% on both Kalshi and Polymarket, and Tampa Bay -8.5 sits at 49% on both, so the market's median margin lands right around 8 points. Further out, Tampa Bay -10.5 is 43% on Kalshi and 42% on Polymarket, and Tampa Bay -14.5 is 32% on both, which leaves roughly a one-in-three chance of a two-touchdown home win. On the other side, a Cleveland win by 2 or more points is 19% on Kalshi and 20% on Polymarket, just under the 21% Browns moneyline.
The total is pinned at 41.5 points, where Kalshi prices the over at exactly 50%. Over 40.5 is 54% on both venues and over 42.5 is 46% on Kalshi and 48% on Polymarket. Kalshi's team totals split that number roughly 24 to 17: Tampa Bay over 24.5 is 51%, Cleveland over 15.5 is 55% and Cleveland over 17.5 is 42%. The market expects Tampa Bay to score about a touchdown more than Cleveland, which matches the spread.
Movement across the captures we hold, from late on September 15 through the evening of September 16 ET, was minimal. The Tampa Bay moneyline held at 79% on Kalshi (with a brief touch of 80%) and 80% on Polymarket the entire window. Tampa Bay -8.5 on Kalshi slipped one point, from 50% to 49%, in the late afternoon of September 16. Over 40.5 held at 54% on Kalshi, with Polymarket briefly ticking to 55% before returning to 54%. The board has not repriced off the Week 1 results in the last day.
Resolution Criteria
The moneyline market resolves Yes for the team that wins the Cleveland Browns at Tampa Bay Buccaneers game scheduled for Sunday, September 20, 2026 at Raymond James Stadium, based on the official final score including overtime. Spread markets resolve on the final margin: Tampa Bay -7.5 resolves Yes only if Tampa Bay wins by 8 or more points. Total markets resolve on the combined final score of both teams, so over 41.5 resolves Yes at 42 or more combined points. Team total markets resolve on that team's final points. Kalshi and Polymarket settle each contract under their own posted rules once the game is final.
Key Factors
- Week 1 margins diverge: Tampa Bay lost 33-27 at Cincinnati, while Cleveland lost 34-10 at Jacksonville, and the 79.5% home moneyline reflects that gap
- The spread centers near Tampa Bay by 8: -7.5 trades at 53% and -8.5 at 49% on both Kalshi and Polymarket
- The total is a coin flip at 41.5 points on Kalshi (50%), with Kalshi team totals implying roughly Tampa Bay 24, Cleveland 17
- No cross-platform edge on the winner market: Kalshi and Polymarket are within one point on both sides (79% vs 80% Tampa Bay, 21% vs 21% Cleveland)
- The line held through the captured window: the Tampa Bay moneyline stayed at 79% to 80% from late September 15 to the evening of September 16, and Tampa Bay -8.5 on Kalshi moved only from 50% to 49%
- Both teams are 0-1, so the loser of this 1:00 PM ET CBS game falls to 0-2 after two weeks
