Cam Newton to Patriots Bill Belichick fi

No, you're not in a Madden simulation; is actually a member of the . The former league MVP has as the hoodie is now casting an even wider net in hopes of having a smooth transition proce s after losing -- the quarterback he's won all six of his titles with as head coach of the Patriots -- in free agency just a few short months ago.Really, this is a no-brainer all the way around. As we mentioned above, there's a GOAT-sized hole to fill under center after Brady bolted for the Bucs. The team already had veteran , who is on his third stint with the team, on the active roster along Valtteri Filppula Jersey with second-year quarterback , who was looked at as the favorite to land the QB1 job before this Newton news. By adding Newton into the mix, Belichick, at the bare minimum, gives himself another dart to throw at the board in hopes of hitting a bullseye to begin the post-Brady era. And this dart, in particular, has tremendous upside with little risk whatsoever.Newton presents the highest reward out of every other quarterback currently on New England's roster. At the peak of his powers, Newton's a dynamic weapon capable of reaching MVP status and bringing Brian Elliott Men Jersey a team to the brink of a Lombardi Trophy for pennies on the dollar. If Newton reached the max of this one-year deal with New England, he'll walk away with just $7.5 million, which is nothing when looking at what starting quarterbacks are making nowadays. The question regarding Newton, however, is his health. Injuries have been a big part of Newton's NFL story over the last few years and a Lisfranc fracture derailed his 2019 season, ultimately spelled the end to his time with the , and is why the Patriots were able to get him on the cheap. Newton has been showing off his regained health and skill on social media this offseason and the Patriots are making the calculated move to ink him to a deal to see if he can recapture his magic as a legit top-10 quarterback in the league once more. By all accounts, it's a savvy gamble to make. In fact, according to CBS Sports data analyst Stephen Oh, with Newton the Patriots have jumped up to having the third-best odds to win the AFC and are the favorites to win the AFC East. Here's how Oh's numbers look in other areas when comparing the Pats with Stidham at quarterback vs. with Newton:PatriotsWinsWin%DivisionPlayoffsConferenceChampionshipWith Stidham7.848.8%28.2%43.4%2.2%0.9%With Newton9.358.1%55.0%72.7%7.9%3.8%Difference1.59.4%26.8%29.3%5.7%2.9%As for how Newton fits with New England's system, that's somewhat of a dated question. The 2020 Patriots offense likely won't look like anything we've seen from Josh McDaniels and company over the years with Brady. Because No. 12 had been in New England for Valtteri Filppula Men Jersey so long, there's this thought that whichever quarterback comes in next will simply have to jump in the same car and be asked to drive it just like the greatest of all-time that came before. That won't be the case and Belichick said as such prior to the 2020 draft."Over the last two decades, everything we did, every single decision we made in terms of major planning, was made with the idea of how to make things best for Tom Brady," Belichick said back in April."Whoever the quarterback is, we'll try to make things work smoothly and efficiently for that player and take advantage of his strengths and his skills," he added. "Each of us has different skills. Each quarterback has a different skillset, and whatever things that particular player does well, we'll try to work towards and feature, or at least give him an opportunity to do those. And the things that either he doesn't do well or needs more experience at or whatever the case might be, then we'll try to minimize or until those things improve, work around them."With that sentiment by Belichick in mind, the Patriots offense Michael Raffl Jersey will likely take a step into the modern-day, which is a fantastic turn of events for Newton and his chances of taking over for Brady. That willingne s by Belichick to change the offense opens the door for a bit more mobility from the man under center. Newton has shown that ability over the course of his career, rushing for 4,806 yards over the last nine seasons. New England won't turn into the 2019 , but there should be the expectation to see more RPOs, bootlegs, and schemes of that nature that highlight those skills more than ever before.But let's get to that million-dollar question: Does Newton actually have a chance at becoming the heir to Tom Brady? Yes. And not only that, but he's currently in the perfect storm to ultimately stick around in New England for the foreseeable future.The injury and unprecedented offseason forced Newton to take a much smaller deal than he normally would. Had his market been any higher, the Patriots likely would've been out of the running for him as their backs are against the salary cap wall. If he can solidify himself as the starter, however, the Patriots are projected to have the sixth-most cap space in 2021, which is plenty enough to lock-in Newton, who'll be just 31 years old by the start of the 2020 season.Sure, there's a world Travis Konecny Women Jersey where Jarrett Stidham be the next great find by Bill Belichick, and the Patriots do have the luxury of hanging onto him through the 2022 season to ultimately see if that any fruit. In the immediate, however, Cam Newton's potential for instant superstar play and continued Super Bowl contention is simply too tantalizing for Bill Belichick to pa s up, especially at such a low cost. Even if it blows up in his face and Newton can't return to form, the Patriots will walk away largely unscathed.But if it works, Belichick is on a path that could result in the seventh Super Bowl title of his head-coaching career.

Carolinas Matt Rhule is now the sixth-hi

If the Panthers proved one thing this week, it's that they definitely have a lot of faith in new head coach Matt Rhule, and we know that, because Carolina gave him what's believed to Damon Severson Women Jersey be the largest contract ever given to a first-time NFL coach.To steal Rhule away from Baylor, Panthers owner David Tepper basically made the long-time college coach .

Drew Stafford Women Jersey 86 million per year from now thru the 2026 season, .The Panthers gave Rhule so much money that the Giants when they were given a chance to match the offer. Rhule's new salary instantly makes him the sixth-highest paid coach in the . Although he's still yet to coach a down in the league, Rhule is already making more money than multiple coaches who have been to the , including Andy Reid and Sean McVay. Ben Lovejoy Women Jersey Rhule is also making more money than at least two Super Bowl-winning coaches (Mike Tomlin and Doug Pederson).So if Rhule is the sixth-highest paid coach, who's making more than him? Glad you asked. The guys of the NFL's highest paid coaches, and in what will probably come as a surprise to no one, Bill Belichick is at the top.Here's a look at the 10 highest-paid coaches in the NFL. One thing to keep in mind with this list is that exact coaching salaries can sometimes be hard to pin down. For instance, there's a belief that Belichick (or even more), but no one knows for sure, because the Patriots have been notoriously secretive about their contract with Pavel Zacha Jersey him. According , there could be coaches making as much as $15 million per year when you include other forms of compensation.For now, here's the top-10 list based on the most accurate information available, and as you'll notice, everyone in the top-10 -- except for Rhule -- has been to a Super Bowl, and six Graeme Clarke Women Jersey of the coaches on the list have won a Super Bowl.

LOOK Jameis Winston Bucs have total melt

If a football coach at any level needs to give his team a le son in how NOT to run a two-minute drill, that le son should be easy to teach from now on. All he needs to do is pre s play on a video that shows the ending of Sunday's game between the and the . The Bucs were so bad in crunch time that even admitted that he made at least one "dumb" play during Tampa's pivotal end-of-game sequence. So how did the Bucs blow it in their 37-32 lo s? Let's take a quick look. Oh, and keep in mind that there was a one-hour rain delay after the two-minute warning in the fourth quarter, so Tampa had 60 extra Jimmy Hayes Women Jersey minutes to think about what they might do on their final drive.The Drive Trailing 37-32, the Buccaneers got the ball on their own 44-yard line with two timeouts left and 1:42 left in the game. The first play went perfectly: A 16-yard pa s to , Taylor Hall Women Jersey who got knocked out of bounds with 1:36 left. After that, things went downhill. On second-and-10 from the Rams' 40-yard line, Winston completed a short 6-yard pa s to , who was tackled in-bounds. The Bucs could've used a timeout, but they didn't. Instead, the Bucs lost 15 seconds -- Humphries was tackled with 1:31 on the clock and Tampa didn't get their next play off until the 1:16 mark. Now, this next play is actually where the clock nightmare begins. On second-and-4 from the Rams 34, Winston threw a short seven-yard pa s to that took Tampa down to the Rams' 27. Sims was tackled in-bounds with 1:10 left, and again, the Bucs refused to call a timeout. Instead, they wasted 15 more seconds because they didn't get their next play off until the 55-second mark. If you're scoring at P K Subban Men Jersey home: So far the Bucs have used exactly zero of their two timeouts and have wasted a total of 30 seconds. Two plays later, the Bucs threw all logic out the window. On second-and-10 with 49 seconds left, Winston completed another pa s to Sims, which went for 12 yards. The only problem is that Sims didn't get out of bounds on a play where it looked like he had a shot. Here's how much room Sims had to get to the sideline, and keep in mind the Rams defender made no effort to keep him in-bounds. Of course, Sims may not have been thinking about getting out of bounds because the Bucs still had TWO TIMEOUTS left. However, unbelievably, Tampa didn't use either one on this play. The Sims play was blown dead at the 43-second mark and then the Bucs didn't get another play off until the 26-second mark, a complete waste of 17 seconds on that play and a total waste of 47 seconds on the drive. So why didn't the Bucs use any of their two timeouts on any of the plays mentioned above? "Yeah, there was an opportunity to call timeout ," Tampa Bay head coach Dirk Koetter said, . "I got a lot of confidence in our two-minute drill , and I sometimes push the envelope on that, on getting to the next play. I thought we were slow getting lined up on that next one. I thought we Brian Gibbons Men Jersey still had time to check it down again and use it. But as it worked out, we were a little slow, so I probably should've used the timeout there." Yes, you should have, Dirk. Despite the horrible clock management, the Bucs still had a chance to win on the final play of the game. With four seconds left, Winston dropped back to pa s from the Rams' 15. Winston obviously needed to throw it into the end zone, but instead, he did this. Yes. That is Winston getting ready to throw a pa s even though he's three yards past the line of scrimmage Damon Severson Women Jersey (blue line). Winston would get tackled at the five-yard line on the play, and that was it. Game over. That was the final play. The Bucs quarterback admitted that he probably should've thrown the ball in the end zone. "I was just trying to bait them and get closer to the end zone," Winston said. "In that moment, I've just got to give somebody a chance in the end zone. That was just dumb on my part." Although Winston admitted it was dumb, it wasn't as dumb as Tampa Bay's clock management. If the Bucs -- who had a timeout left WHEN THE GAME ENDED -- had used a timeout at any point earlier in the drive, they would've had at least 15 extra seconds to work with. Instead, they showed football coaches acro s America how not to run a two-minute drill.

NFL insider notes Lamar Jackson somehow

It's difficult to improve on an MVP season as a 22-year-old quarterback in one's first full season as a starter. But just might do it.Yes, he was opposing the , a perennially helple s bunch that did their best to live down to their reputation at critical junctures in Baltimore's 38-6 beatdown on Sunday. And, yes, the Browns were thin at linebacker and throughout the secondary with a rookie head coach in his first game. But don't let any of that detract from Jackson's latest tour de force performance, one that was even more consistent and nuanced and, frankly, mature, than many of his jaw-dropping outings from 2019.There was a certain poise and calmne s to his masterful Week 1. His clear command of every tenet of the offense was obvious. He was operating at a higher level than anyone else on the football field, anticipating and regulating and putting his team in position to dominate, once more, picking up where they Devante Smith Pelly Kids Jersey left off the 2019 regular season. On the day, Jackson was 20 of 25 for 275 yards with two touchdowns and no picks and a stellar 152.1 rating, on a day when he established the run early but was able to carve the Browns almost exclusively with his arm and not his legs (just seven carries for 46 yards).But there was something extra special about his drive to close out the first half, which also served to effectively close out the competition portion of this football game, with his touchdown drive making it 24-6. It wasn't just what he did, but how he did it. , Jr. dropped an easy first down catch (more on the Browns browning it up, below) then perhaps soon-to-be-ex-kicker mi sed from 41 yards. This could be a huge momentum swing. Jackson could sense it. And his expert work on a seven-play drive, with 41 seconds and two timeouts at his disposal, spoke to Jackson reaching a higher level.Jackson would go five for seven for 69 yards on the drive, never scrambling, never panicking, doing all the damage through the air. He would require just 35 of those allotted seconds to hit paydirt on his second TD pa s to tight end on the day. He was outright toying with the Browns at times, it seemed, in the proce s. He fired immediately to slot man for 20 yards, and then, after a timeout, he found Hollywood Brown for 13 yards over the middle before waiting for him to make a cut down the sideline. A little hand gesture from Brown, who worked all offseason with Jackson in Miami, seemed to indicate where to thread the pa s. That was another 16 yards.Jackson worked the opposite sideline next, leading Andrews out of bounds for an 11-yard gain but only after teasing the entire Browns front. Jackson calmly slid up in the pocket, almost inviting contact, before Washington Capitals Women Jersey gliding back into a vacant pocket and rolling slightly before executing the strike."It's our job to get to the spot," Brown said in the postgame Zoom, "because that's where he's putting it." He misconnected with Andrews and then threw a back shoulder fade to that fell just short (Jackson chastised himself for not being more pinpoint after the game, though a more accomplished receiver probably makes the catch and he placed it where the defender had no shot). Then he crushed the Browns' will with a nine-yard TD pa s to Andrews.This wasn't about mesh points or Jakub Vrana Men Jersey hybrid offenses or fooling anyone with a keeper. Everyone knew the ball was going to be in the air every snap and everyone knows Brown and Andrews are the guys he goes to when it matters most, and no one could intervene. Other than the coaching staff leaving him in too long, when Jackson took a big hit on what could have been a dangerous sack up 31 points in fourth-quarter garbage time -- there wasn't anything to nitpick.Jackson obse sed about improving his downfield pa sing, and went out and was 14-for-17 for 229 yards and 3 TDs on pa ses of 10 yards or more. Expect more of the same next week against an overwhelmed defense and then another meeting with the looms in a battle of the last two MVPs. There's a good chance either one of them gets their hands back on that trophy this year. Cam shows what Pats are now aboutThe are not about style points. They have become a muscular offense in the image of new quarterback , and on two scoring drives that basically sucked the life out of the Sunday you could really feel it.Newton ain't me sing around, and coordinator Josh McDaniels can soften teams up with the power runs early Evgeny Kuznetsov Kids Jersey to set up the pa s, or vice versa. If you put too many helmets in the box, Newton will make you pay in the short pa sing game.The Pats went ahead early on an 11-play, 80-yard, six-minute drive. It went something like this: run, short pa s, run, run, run, short pa s, Cam keeper, short pa s to , run, Cam keeper for the TD. It was more of the same on an eight-play, 75-yard TD drive that put the game away, which started with three straight quick pa ses (two to Edelman and one to running back ), then a handoff, then another quick pa s to Edelman, then a Cam keeper, then a handoff for an inside run and then a Cam keeper for 11 yards to score. Newton ran 15 times for 75 yards, far away the team leader as New England rolled up over 200 yards on the ground. This is who they are. Get used to it.Dome team defenses struggle without fansFor what it's worth, keep an eye on dome teams, now with no fans, having their defenses struggle mightily. There were notable collapses by the defenses of the , and in the early games. Now, part of it might be that all three defenses stink (two probably do and the Vikings continue to decline rapidly from where they were a few years ago), but they combined to give up 108 points, with opposing QBs having no concerns about crowd noise or hand signals or silent counts.Frankly, it was ugly. Even got off under these circumstances, leading a wild fourth quarter comeback that will have the hot seat under Matt Patricia cranking again (wasn't buying the Lions as a playoff team narrative before this game; definitely ain't now). Might be a trend worth tracking after , and Trubisky combined to go 83 of 115 (72 percent) for 928 yards, 11 TDs and no interceptions. Wow ... QB controversy coming for ?The Colts may find they have a QB controversy on their hands sooner rather than later. has been a turnover machine for years, specializing in the first quarter and fourth quarter variety, which is why the were ready to move on by last December. The Colts should have put the Jags away early, scoring a quick TD, getting stuffed on downs near the goal line and then, driving again, Rivers got picked, which led to the Jags' first score. And, trailing by a score with le s than five minutes left, Rivers got picked again. Defenders can undercut his throws too easily, as arm strength has long seemed an i sue. But he is still pretty Andre Burakovsky Women Jersey quick to heave the ball up for grabs. Head coach Frank Reich goes way back with him, and with his $25M salary I doubt we see a quick hook. But is the better QB and he is already seeing the field in certain packages and that coul

Tom Brady on sideline outburst vs. Steel

In some ways, during Sunday's lo s to the was a good thing Martin Fehervary Women Jersey for the future Hall of Fame quarterback. The outburst largely overshadowed what was an underwhelming game for Brady and the , who lost in Pittsburgh despite being a double-digit favorite.Brady acknowledged the offense's struggles on Sunday while addre sing his sideline tirade that appeared to be directed at members of Tampa Bay's offensive line."I do think that it's a bad day when there are more F-bombs than touchdowns," . "They used to kind of keep from showing you in those moments. But now, it's kind of for the world to see. That's just the way it is."Brady said that everything is good between himself and his teammates on the offensive line. He said that, as the Buccaneers quarterback, it's his job to Marcus Johansson Jersey try to rally the troops when adversity hits. "I think I have a great rapport with all my teammates," he said. "They know that the only reason why I'm doing it is to try to motivate them and to try to raise them to another level."If I don't feel like we're living up to and playing up to the expectations that we're capable of , then that's my job. I'm a quarterback. I'm not expecting the left tackle, running back or receiver to do it. It's my job to try to get us going, to try to rally us. There's a lot of ways to do it. Sometimes, it's getting on people, trying to get the level and sense of urgency, raising my voice, trying to create a vibration for the whole offense. That's ultimately what you're trying to do." TB QB #12 CMP%67.2YDs1652TD8INT1YD/Att6.69 Brady said that he is not immune to being on the receiving end of an outburst."I think that's part of being a great teammate is being receptive to Mike Gartner Women Jersey what the people you care about think," Brady said. "It's our team. No one owns the team. We're all in it together. It's our team. We have the right to voice our opinion to each other when we don't feel like it's going the right way." As far as the Buccaneers are concerned, Brady said that a lack of execution is Michal Kempny Kids Jersey the main reason why they are 3-3 through six games. That lack of execution has led to unforced errors, too many punts and a lack of succe s in critical moments, such as his incomplete pa s to on Sunday when the Buccaneers were trying to tie up the score. Pittsburgh ultimately stopped the attempt, then proceeded to keep the ball for the game's remaining 4 minutes, 38 seconds.While he wasn't directly asked about it, Brady somewhat alluded to coach Todd Bowles' postgame comments that some of Tampa Bay's players might be "living in fantasy land" while continuing to ride off of the team's victory. Brady acknowledged that the Buccaneers are a different team from the one that dethroned the at the end of the 2020 season."Should we carry over just because we're the Bucs? No, you carry over because of the people," Brady said. "We're all humans and we're trying to learn each other. There's no time to feel sorry for ourselves. This is the time to Marcus Johansson Men Jersey really knuckle down, bear down, and put our best foot forward."

Urban Meyer fired Ex-Jaguars kicker Josh

The Urban Meyer situation in Jacksonville was seemingly growing more toxic by the day and this incident may have been the last straw that led to his . The latest i sue that has come to light surrounding the first-year head coach comes from former kicker , who revealed to that Meyer kicked him as he was stretching with his teammates at practice back in August just before the final against the ."I'm in a lunge position. Left leg forward, right leg back," Lambo told Stroud. "... Urban Meyer, while I'm in that stretch position, comes up to me and says, 'Hey Dips--t, make your f--king kicks!' And kicks me in the leg."The root of Meyer's kick was due to Lambo -- and All- Derek Dorsett Jersey Pro kicker in 2019 -- mi sing a field goal attempt in each of the Jaguars' first two exhibitions. Naturally, the blow sparked a reaction from Lambo, who also noted that Meyer did not mention specialists Tanner Pearson Men Jersey by name, rather their position or "S--tbag, Dips--t or whatever the hell it was.""It certainly wasn't as hard as he could've done it, but it certainly wasn't a love tap," Lambo said. "Truthfully, I'd register it as a five (out of 10). Which in the workplace, I don't care if it's football or not, the bo s can't strike an employee. And for a second, I couldn't believe it actually happened. Pardon my vulgarity, I said, 'Don't you ever f--king kick me again!' And his response was, 'I'm the head ball coach, I'll kick you whenever the f--k I want.'" On the day Meyer kicked him in warmups, Lambo said that he later reported the incident to his agent, Richard Irvin, who then contacted the Jaguars' legal counsel. In Alex Burmistrov Kids Jersey a statement to the , the Jaguars said that they "acknowledged and responded immediately to the query made by Josh Lambo's agent Friday, August 27, 2021." They added that they offered to speak with Lambo about the incident, but he told Stroud that he has "no recollection of being able to speak with the Jags' legal team."Meyer has said that Lambo's characterization of the incident is "completely inaccurate, and there are eyewitne ses to refute his account.""(General manager) Trent (Baalke) and I met with him on multiple occasions to encourage his performance, and this was never brought up," Meyer added, . "I was fully supportive of Josh during his time with the team and wish him nothing but the best." This nugget is just the latest in what was reportedly a very dysfunctional situation with Meyer at the helm, as has previously reported on. On Saturday, that Meyer had run-ins with players and coaches on his staff. He reportedly harshly criticized his a sistant coaches, highlighting how he is a winner and they are losers while challenging them to defend their rsums. Meanwhile, he reportedly also Kirk Mclean Men Jersey had a heated argument with veteran receiver ."That's the reason I wanted to talk about this," Lambo told Stroud of the latest reports about Meyer. "There's been a lot of turnovers, but those are still my people. Some of those dudes are my dudes, and the staff members I have grown into amazing relationships with over the last five seasons. He threatened all of them for speaking the truth. And that's a bully, and people need to speak up against bullies."Jaguars owner Shad Khan recently told reporters that he and said: "I'm going to reflect on all Tyler Graovac Men Jersey of that and do what's the right thing for the team and the right thing for the city." As for Lambo, he was released by the team at the start of the season after mi sing his first three field-goal attempts and is currently a free agent.

NFL combine 2022 More changes announced

After a one-year hiatus, the NFL will once again hold its annual scouting combine from Indianapolis. But this year's combine will be different from the ones that were held in a pre-COVID world.On Saturday, the combine informed prospects that they are permitted to invite one "medical support person" -- e sentially a trainer -- that must be fully vaccinated. Chris Wagner Kids Jersey All meals and snacks will be provided by the combine, as prospects will spend their time in Indianapolis in a "bubble" environment, with limited exceptions. Players who violate the combine's new policies will be disqualified from further participation and will be sent home, attained by Network's Tom Peli sero.Along with the new COVID-related policies, the combine has also revamped it workout schedule.

Jerry Jones tired of Cowboys losing losi

Jerry Jones has tried everything to help his win a football game. His scare tactics of firing Jason Garrett and the coaching staff didn't work after a lo s to the and his use of encouragement failed after a Thanksgiving Day lo s to the .Jones sounded like a defeated man after Matt Beleskey Jersey the Cowboys suffered another brutal lo s to the Thursday night. He's sick of failure, period."It's losing, losing, losing. I'm not trying to be funny here, but the point is that we've got to win a football game," Jones said after Thursday's lo s to the Bears, . "I don't care what the standings are, what the numbers are. We had thought that we could come up here and play a good team and play a fine football game and get our act to where we're starting to look like a team that could -- if we by a slim chance if we Par Lindholm Women Jersey get in the playoffs -- where we could win."We can't do that until we play and start winning the football games and we've got three more to play. When we do that, we can go." The Cowboys still control their own destiny in the NFC East despite their third consecutive lo s.

NFL Week 5 Vegas expert picks and predic

When you're looking for advice on who to pick on game day in the NFL, nobody beats R.J. White. In fact, if you placed $100 on each of R.J. White's last season Andreas Borgman Kids Jersey , you would have won nearly $2,000. Smart bettors tail his selections. He also cashed big last season in the world's most prestigious handicapping tournament, the Westgate Las Vegas SuperContest, tying for 18th out of 2,748 contestants with a 52-29-4 mark against the spread. It wasn't a fluke, either, as he also cashed big-time in the Mike Palmateer Kids Jersey 2015 SuperContest. Now, he's back and ready to crush his SuperContest selections again in 2018.Using the Las Vegas SuperContest lines for Week 5, we can tell you White loves the Eagles (-3) at home against the Vikings."The Eagles stomped the Vikings last year with their backup QB when the stakes couldn't be any higher," White told SportsLine. "Now that Carson Wentz has a couple of starts under his belt, I like their chances to do it again. The Vikings' Alexander Kerfoot Jersey defense has been a shell of its former self, ranking 25th in DVOA and 29th in net yards per attempt. The Eagles also don't have to respect a run offense that's averaging 3.5 yards per carry and has the worst DVOA in the league. The Eagles' D-line should feast against a Vikings O-line that Felix Potvin Women Jersey 's had major i sues to date, and that's the difference in this matchup."And a ma sive shocker: White is backing the Browns (+3) to cover against the Ravens. "This line is treating the Browns like they're the same team from Weeks 1 and 2," White told SportsLine. "They're not. Baker Mayfield has lifted the ceiling of this offense, and if not for some bad officiating breaks last week, the Browns would be 4-0 ATS. This is a comedown spot for the Ravens after winning in Pittsburgh, and Maple Leafs Blank Men Jersey they're on the road again next week. Browns pull off the shocker here."White also is calling for a road favorite to get absolutely shocked on Sunday. And who it is may surprise you. So who else is White backing in Week 5? And which favorite do you need to avoid? .
