Cleveland Browns vs New England Patriots Prediction

The Patriots are rolling, and it’s clear oddsmakers are on board. However, I want everybody to pump the brakes just a bit, as 4 of their 5 wins have come against some of the worst teams in the league. This will also be just the fifth time since 2022 where the Patriots are favorites of 6 or more points.

The Browns are challenged offensively, but they have one of the best defenses in the league, which includes being first in total defense. The Patriots are third in rush defense and fifth in scoring defense. This has a chance to be an ugly, low scoring game. I’ll grab the free touchdown with the Browns.

Randy Chambers's Pick: Browns +7
