Myles Garrett close to history for the Browns

San Francisco 49ers vs Cleveland Browns Picks

49ers vs Browns Spread Pick

  • Cleveland Browns +4.5 (5 units)

The 49ers are coming off of a short week of practice after playing on Monday night. They came away with the win against Carolina, but it wasn’t perfect. Brock Purdy tossed three interceptions and he is likely to turn the ball over again versus the Browns. Cleveland’s defense is elite as Myles Garrett is close to breaking the NFL record for most sacks in a season. Cleveland is always a tough game at home, and with the crowd on the side of Sanders, the Browns' stadium should be bumping. Cleveland’s defense will keep this game close as San Francisco hasn’t been able to blow teams out recently. The Browns will make the plays necessary and cover the spread. They are 3-2 against the spread as a 4.5 point underdog or less. They are also 4-1 against the spread at home.

Take Cleveland to cover.

49ers vs Browns Over/Under Pick

  • Under 36.5 (5 units)

The Browns have one of the best defenses in the NFL. They get after the quarterback easily and can force turnovers. Brock Purdy threw three interceptions to a worse defense in Carolina last week. The Browns will force turnovers and keep San Francisco out of the end zone. Cleveland will also be starting Sanders for his second start and he will struggle at times as he continues to adjust to the NFL speed of the game.

Take the under on Sunday.
