A bad matchup for the home team. Cleveland's defense is No. 1 in the NFL in yards allowed, fifth in points given up (15.4 per game), and No. 1 on third down (23.08%). They just ended San Francisco's 15-game regular-season winning streak, 19-17. NFL road teams like the Browns that force one or fewer turnovers per game are 58-27 ATS after back-to-back contests with a turnover margin of minus-one or worse when the betting line is +3 to -3. Indianapolis limps home from a 37-20 loss at Jacksonville. They've lost QB Anthony Richardson for the season, so backup QB Gardner Minshew (3 TDs, 3 INTs) is running the offense. The Colts defense is 25th in yards allowed and 23rd in points given up (25.3 per game). Play Cleveland.
