Jets Vs. Browns: Odds, Analysis, Picks For NFL Week 8 Game
Editor’s note: NESN.com’s Mike Cole, Ricky Doyle and Andre Khatchaturian deliver their NFL picks every Thursday of the season. Here’s who they like in the New York Jets-Cleveland Browns Week 8 game, with the line from OddsShark.
(-2.5) New York Jets at Cleveland Browns, Sunday, 1 p.m.
Mike: Jets. Kevin Hogan came out of nowhere last week and put up a nice showing in relief against a Bengals team that didn’t prepare for him. The Jets will face Josh McCown instead, but if he goes down, they won’t be (ehh, shouldn’t be) surprised by anything from Hogan, who couldn’t beat out Tyler Bray (Who? I know, right?) in Chiefs camp.
Ricky: Jets. Things are getting ugly between Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Jets. I’d pick against them, but, you know, it’s the Browns.
Andre: Browns. The Cleveland Browns continue to dominate the ?explosive play? (a run of 12-plus yards or a pass of 20-plus yards) department. They have 44 on the season, second in the NFL, and the Jets have been prone to allow big plays this year. Even if Cody Kessler doesn’t start, McCown is cleared to play and he shouldn’t have a problem against the Jets’ horrid defense.
