Cardinals @ Saints
Betting Line - Cardinals by 6.5
The Saints have a very real chance of rivalling the Browns for the first overall pick at the end of the season, so hopefully they win week one.
Go Saints!
Panthers @ Jaguars
Betting Line - Jaguars by 3.0
Every week this season we will be rooting against the Jaguars since we have their first round pick.
Go Panthers!
Raiders @ Patriots
Betting Line - Patriots by 2.5
I don't expect the Raiders to be in the top three come the end of the season, so ideally they lose here to give the Browns a higher pick in the fifth round.
Go Patriots!
Dolphins @ Colts
Betting Line - Colts by 1.5
This isn't likely to move the needle either way during the first week of the season.
Who cares!
Giants @ Commanders
Betting Line - Commanders by 6.0
The Giants are set to be one of the worst teams in the league this year so hopefully they can win rather than start their race towards the first overall pick.
Go Giants!
Steelers @ Jets
Betting Line - Steelers by 3.0
So while some people won't like me doing this, it is about what is best for the Browns and the Jets getting a win on the board helps.
Go Steelers!
Buccaneers @ Falcons
Betting Line - Buccaneers by 2.5
This NFC game isn't going to make too much difference unless the Falcons flop the season.
Go Falcons!
49ers @ Seahawks
Betting Line - 49ers by 2.5
This isn't going to impact the Browns.
Who Cares!
Titans @ Broncos
Betting Line - Broncos by 7.5
They are potentially going to be right at the top of the draft unless Cam Ward has a great season.
Go Titans!
Lions @ Packers
Betting Line - Packers by 2.5
This game is about the NFC playoffs which isn't going to impact the Browns.
Who Cares!
Texans @ Rams
Betting Line - Rams by 2.5
If the Browns have a strong season then the Texans losing helps keep a playoff spot open, so it is worth having options as you never know how week one will go.
Go Rams!
Ravens @ Bills
Betting Line - Bills by 1.0
Doesn't matter too much so time to hate on Baltimore.
Go Bills!
Vikings @ Bears
Betting Line - Vikings by 1.5
I would like to see JJ McCarthy struggle out of the gates and set up a good game for the Browns in London.
Go Bears!
