New York at Cleveland Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
The Jets stunned bettors in Week 1 with a dominating 48-17 romp over Detroit as seven-point road underdogs. A bit of reality crept back into the picture with Sunday’s 20-12 loss to Miami as three-point home favorites. They took the 44-point total OVER on their own in Week 1, but it stayed UNDER 42.5 points against their AFC East rivals in that recent loss. The total has stayed UNDER in four of New York’s last six games.

<p>
The Sam Darnold era in New York is underway. The rookie quarterback threw for 198 yards and two touchdowns against Detroit as part of the early highlight reel. In Sunday's loss to Miami, he ended the game with 334 yards passing while completing 25 of his 41 passing attempts, but he tossed two interceptions against one touchdown while getting sacked three times. The more significant concern was New York's rushing offense with 42 yards gained on 19 rushing attempts.

Cleveland is still looking for its first regular-season win since December of 2016, but it can take solace in the fact that it tied Pittsburgh 21-21 in Week 1 as a 3.5-point home underdog ahead of covering against the spread on Sunday in a tough 21-18 loss to New Orleans as a 9.5-point road underdog. The total stayed UNDER 51 points in that latest loss after going OVER 41 points in the overtime tie against the Steelers.

The Browns used the first pick of the 2018 draft to select former Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield, but so far head coach Hue Jackson has stuck with veteran Tyrod Taylor as his starter. He put Cleveland in position to beat the Saints with 246 yards passing and another 26 yards on the ground, but when a team forgets how to win, it is tough for it to overcome its own mistakes. Two missed extra points, and two missed field goals did not help the cause.
