Cleveland’s defense doesn’t travel well. At home, they’ve allowed just 40 points across four games, but on the road, they’ve given up 98 to Baltimore, Detroit, and Pittsburgh. With Drake Maye making real strides this season, I’m not shying away from backing the Patriots' offense against the Browns. While Hunter Henry might look like the obvious play, I’m targeting Austin Hooper at +600. He was the only tight end to see a red-zone target last week — and he converted it into a 3-yard touchdown. The Patriots have struggled to run near the goal line, so don’t be surprised if they lean on 2TE sets and throw inside the 20. Cleveland has also allowed touchdowns to backup tight ends in two of their last three games — Conner Heyward (+2700) and Josh Oliver (+1300) — making Hooper a live longshot.

Following Antonio Gibson landing on the IR, New England has made it clear that despite his fumble issues, Rhamondre Stevenson remains the clear-cut RB1 for Mike Vrabel’s team. Stevenson is coming off an 18-carry outing against Tennessee and has found paydirt three times in as many games. Expect him to be the focal point inside the red zone against Cleveland.

At the present time, the 7th-most pass-heavy team in the league near the goal line (59.6% in a neutral context) according to the predictive model is the Patriots.. The projections expect Rhamondre Stevenson to be a much bigger part of his offense's passing game near the end zone in this contest (13.0% projected Red Zone Target Share) than he has been this year (3.7% in games he has played).. When talking about air yards, Rhamondre Stevenson grades out in the lofty 91st percentile among running backs this year, accruing a whopping 5.0 per game. (given that they are usually targeted behind the line of scrimmage, that is much more impressive than it sounds since most RBs wind up with negative air yards).. In regards to protecting the passer (and the strong impact it has on all passing offense statistics), the O-line of the Patriots grades out as the best in football this year.. Rhamondre Stevenson's ball-catching skills have gotten a boost this year, with his Adjusted Completion Rate rising from 85.1% to 88.7%.

The Patriots are a giant 7-point favorite in this week's contest, likely creating an extreme rushing game script.. Given their underlying traits and matchup dynamics, our trusted projections expect the New England Patriots to pass on 53.5% of their downs: the 5th-lowest frequency on the slate this week.. The model projects this game to have the 5th-lowest volume of plays run on the slate this week at 127.6 plays, given the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.. Opposing offenses have averaged 29.9 pass attempts per game against the Cleveland Browns defense this year: 8th-fewest in the NFL.. Opposing offenses have thrown for the 5th-fewest yards in the NFL (just 192.0 adjusted yards per game) against the Cleveland Browns defense this year.

At the moment, the 6th-least pass-centric team in the league (58.7% adjusted for context) according to our trusted projection set is the Browns.. The model projects the Browns to call the 8th-fewest total plays among all teams this week with 63.3 plays, accounting for their underlying strategic approach and game dynamics.. As it relates to pocket protection (and the importance it has on all passing offense statistics), the offensive line of the Cleveland Browns profiles as the worst in the league this year.
