Score prediction:

Cleveland Browns 27, Giants 19

Mayfield and the Browns’ offense are rolling along, and suddenly have proven they can be consistently prolific.

Prior to dropping Monday night’s 47-42 heartbreaker to the Baltimore Ravens, the Browns had won four in a row and five out of their past six games. Over that span, Cleveland averaged 30.8 points per game.

The Giants, conversely, have scored over 30 points once, and over 24 points twice.

New York simply can’t score enough to keep up with the Browns with its offense in its current form. Likewise, without James Bradberry, added to the reserve/COVID-19 list, it would be a minor miracle if the Browns score fewer than 30 points.

The Giants will know the results of the Philadelphia Eagles’ and Washington Football Team’s games before they take the field on Sunday night, but there’s a chance the gap could widen between the Giants and the NFC East’s leaders …
