New York Jets Analysis: The Jets looked very impressive in their first game of the season. This is thanks to a great defensive effort. The effort resulted in the Jets forcing six turnovers when they faced the Detroit Lions. Rookie quarterback Sam Darnold also looked impressive as the Jets ran away with an easy win.
In their second game, the defense played well again and forced two turnovers against Miami Dolphins, but the Jets offense struggled against Miami’s defense, leading to their first loss of the season.
Sam Darnold finished the game completing 25 of 41 passes for 334 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. However, the Jets didn’t do a good job running the ball, finishing with 42 yards on 19 carries.
With a short week to get ready for their next game, the Jets will have to do a better job running the ball because Cleveland’s defense will come after Darnold and try to force him into making mistakes.
Cleveland Browns Analysis: The Browns could easily be 2-0 right now, but their special teams, particularly their kicker blew opportunities to seal their first win against the Pittsburgh Steelers and did the same thing against the New Orleans Saints in their last game, missing two field goals, including the game-winning field goal and two extra point conversions.
NFL Week 3 Betting Picks
On Monday, the Browns announced they were inviting kickers to try out for them this week, in hopes of finding a more reliable kicker.
Cleveland’s defense has been impressive in their first two games. They forced six turnovers in their first game against the Steelers and held the Saints offense to 21 points. Fans are hoping their great defensive play continues when they face the Jets on Thursday.
Tyrod Taylor bounced back from his disappointing first game of the season and finished Sunday’s game completing 22 of 30 passes for 248 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. If he plays as well against the Jets, the Browns should be able to get their first win since the 2015 season.
NFL Picks and Predictiosn: The Browns are favored to win the game by 3 points. The over/under on total points scored is 39.
This is going to be a defensive game. With Cleveland’s defense looking like the real deal and their offense starting to come around, Cleveland is most likely to win this game so take them -3 and the under in this game.
