Around the NFL: Who The Browns Want to Win in Week Six

In this story:
Sunday marks the end of the first third of the NFL Season and the playoff picture is going to start taking shape over the next month. The Browns hope to be a team of relevance as this season progresses.
While they still firmly control their fate, there are some outcomes outside of the AFC North that Browns fans should be rooting for.
Colts at Jaguars (-3.5)
The AFC South is going to be a tight race all season long and it very well might come down to these two teams. With both teams still on the schedule, neither outcome helps or hurts the Browns at this point in the season.
Browns fans should watch this game with close intent as Cleveland will be at Lucas Oil Stadium to face the Colts next week. Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars should be able to take care of business and grab a firm grip on the AFC South.
Prediction: Jaguars 24, Colts 17
Saints at Texans (+1.5)
Six weeks in and the C.J. Stroud-led Texans have proven their worth. Stroud is looking like he more than belongs in this league and is a candidate to be the Rookie of the Year.
The Saints have been on a roller coaster through the start of this season. They come into Sunday with a 3-2 record and still have some question marks on their offense.
Browns fans need the Saints to have their "A" game on Saturday to take care of business in Houston.
Prediction: Saints 27, Texans 10
Cowboys at Chargers (+1.5)
On Monday Night, Browns fans are Cowboys fans. The Chargers will be a team that Browns fans will have their eye on all season long.
Like the Browns, the Chargers are 2-2 with two disappointing losses early in their season. Cleveland native Brandon Staley finds his seat warming up. With an opportunity on national television, the Chargers are going to be playing with their backs against the wall.
Browns fans are rooting hard for the Cowboys to bounce back on Monday night. The sooner the Chargers are not a factor in the AFC Playoff Picture, the better for the Cleveland Browns.
Prediction: Cowboys 31, Chargers 30
