The Browns’ defense, coming off a win over the 49ers, is clearly legit.
Sylvanie / USA Today) Cleveland Browns at Indianapolis Colts (+2.5) | 1 p.m. They’ll get it done again against the Bears. Carr is doing his usual struggle in his first season with a play caller thing, and the Saints have scored touchdowns on only 28 percent of their drives that reached the opponent 30-yard line - 29th in the NFL.Ī safety by Maxx Crosby and Bilal Nichols on the Patriots’ Mac Jones helped the Raiders cover last week. But the Jaguars lead the NFL with 15 takeaways as their pass rush has found itself after a slow start, and they will bother Derek Carr in much the same way they did Gardner Minshew (three interceptions and strip-sack fumble) last week. And the Saints have a very good run defense and they had a lot of team meetings after last week’s ugly loss to the Texans. This week is a much tougher call, as Trevor Lawrence is battling a knee injury on a short week, and the Jaguars are less than two weeks removed from a two-week stay in London.
Much like the Lions, I have been on the Jaguars the last three weeks and loving it. Eagles get their groove back in beating Dolphins with signature toughness and aggression Jacksonville Jaguars at New Orleans Saints (-1) | 8:15 p.m.
