Premium Pick

Houston comes off a 27-25 win over Jacksonville, and even though the Texans are only 2-6, they have played one of the toughest schedules in the league, including against Kansas City, Baltimore, and Pittsburgh to start the season. Deshaun Watson had touchdown passes of 57 and 77 yards and finished with 281 yards against the Jaguars. Houston has won and covered the last five meetings with the Browns, who haven't beaten the Texans since 2007. Cleveland had a bye week after its dismal performance in a 16-6 home loss to Las Vegas. Baker Mayfield completed only 12 of 25 for 122 yards and no touchdowns and was victimized by several dropped passes. The Browns defense could not stop the run as the Raiders racked up 209 rushing yards on 4.6 yards per carry. Cleveland is 16-40-1 ATS its last 57 games after a loss and 6-19-1 ATS its last 26 November games. Also, the Browns are just 3-8 ATS their last 11 games overall, and they have gotten the money once in their last eight games versus AFC teams. Mayfield rejoined the team after clearing COVID protocol, but his inconsistency makes him vulnerable in this matchup. Take the Texans for a Max Play.
