Cleveland Browns +8.5 (-115)

The last two weeks have not been kind to me. I keep handicapping the same way I have for 2 decades and somehow favorites (and more importantly, road favorites) keep winning. I will not back down! This play on the Browns is one I will always make because historically, it works. I am getting a home dog getting 8.5 points. Plus, I am getting a new QB that the team believes in - he is their leader if you are watching pregame videos. Now Jameis won’t be the sole answer to the Browns’ problems but he can’t hurt. Deshaun was putrid; like historic levels of bad. So I will gladly trade in a QB that will throw the ball down the field for a few mistakes. And there will be mistakes; Jameis loves to throw picks. I am also getting a Browns offensive line that will be playing together in full for the first time this year. I get the 2nd overall defensive line in football. The Ravens have injuries in their secondary. Yea, give me the Browns.
