Key Stats
Cleveland Browns
The Cleveland Browns recorded their first loss of the NFL season against the Dallas Cowboys, 33-17. QB Deshaun Watson will need to be more efficient in passing after completing 24 passes out of 45 for 169 yards. He had two interceptions that slowed down the Browns’ offense. Star tight end David Njoku had four receptions for 44 yards.
RB Jerome Ford will need to improve his rushing yards after carrying the football 12 times for 44 yards. Browns struggled to a large part due to a disappointing performance from Deshaun Watson. This matchup will feature tough defensive performances, but QB Watson will be under pressure to bounce back.
Jacksonville Jaguars
In their recent game against the Miami Dolphins, QB Trevor Lawrence recorded 162 yards from 12 successful passes out of 21 attempts but recorded one touchdown and no interceptions. Jags running back Tank Bigsby carried the ball 12 times for a total of 73 yards.
Trevor Lawrence got sacked three times and failed to record more passing yards to overcome the final collapse in the second half. The third down efficiency of the team was bad, with 2 out of 10 conversions.
Prediction
Both teams had high expectations coming into this season but failed to impress in their first game. The Browns struggled to struggle in the first half of their game against the Cowboys, ending up losing 33-17.
On the other hand, the Jags should have won their first game against the Dolphins, but their offense went cold in the second half, failing to score in the last two quarters after scoring 17 points in the first half. The Browns will struggle to beat the Jaguars on the road as Trevor Lawrence looks to secure the first win of the season.
Final Pick
Jacksonville Jaguars (ML), -165
