Browns vs. Patriots betting preview
Odds: Patriots -7, over/under 40.5
New England has been on fire of late, highlighted by Drake Maye taking a step forward as a quarterback. Stefon Diggs has emerged as a true No. 1 receiver but the Patriots can still improve with their run game and defense. On the flip side, the Browns have a quarterback dilemma with two rookies while also featuring one of the best defenses in the league. The Patriots are 5-2 ATS this season and 3-4 to the Over, while the Browns are 3-4 ATS and 3-4 to the Over.
