Preview
New Orleans Saints are our pick at home against the Cleveland Browns in Week 9. The model gives them a 63% chance of winning, which makes this game a lean (55 to 65%).
Cleveland Browns have the higher team rating (1449 to 1411), but home field push the pick to New Orleans Saints.
Schedule: New Orleans Saints are coming off a bye.
Quarterbacks: Cleveland Browns' Deshaun Watson is listed questionable, so we have counted part of the backup effect; we expect Tyler Shough to start for New Orleans Saints (16 career starts). We assume each team's most recent starter plays unless the injury report says otherwise.
Season so far: Cleveland Browns are 5–3 and New Orleans Saints are 2–5.
What could change the pick: late quarterback news. We re-check every 30 minutes until kick-off, then the pick is frozen and stays on our public record, win or lose.
