<b>Cleveland Browns </b>
</p>
<p>
The attrition seems to continue in Cleveland as the Browns have now lost their third game in their last four outings. The most recent Cleveland assailant was Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks, who came to Cleveland two weeks ago to square off with the Brownies. Cleveland closed as a one-point favorite but failed to deliver when the Browns were defeated 32-28 by Seattle.

New England Patriots<br />
</h2>

The Patriots put together an emphatic win over the AFC East division rival, the New York Jets when they traveled down to the Big Apple for a Monday Night Football collision. Closing as a 9.5-point favorite, the Patriots were truly easy money as they blanked Gang Green 33-0.

<h2>
Reasons to Back Cleveland<br />
</h2>
<p>
The stock on Cleveland has undoubtedly undergone a paradigm shift. Lest we forget that the Browns were one of the most "hyped teams" coming into the 2019-20 season. Now, the Browns appear shipwrecked and maligned, which puts them in position to now offer value. At the beginning of the season, the hype put Cleveland in a spot to be overvalued. Currently, the opposite holds true as taking back the points here is a method for the market to enchant action on the Brownies, given how no one would be keen to back them in this scenario. Moreover, Cleveland has also had two weeks to prepare for this contest.

<h2>
Reasons to Avoid New England<br />
</h2>
<p>
As a general rule of thumb, when one gets behind the Patriots, they can expect to pay a premium to do so. This is especially true when the Pats are the reigning and defending champions. Every now and then, there are softer spots where perhaps New England may be a more equitable choice that presents potential value. However, this is not one of those spots. The Patriots have owned the Browns in this series, and the two sides couldn't come into this meeting in more contrasting forms. When the location of the contest is tossed into the mix, there is a propensity for New England to be supremely valued at home after an impressive nationally-televised victory.
