Summary:
Tom Brady came back with a vengeance albeit against a porous Browns defense. The Patriots were (3-1) in Brady’s absence and now have perhaps the best quarterback in the league. Cincinnati has been terrible offensively this year and were totally dismantled by Dallas last week. The Bengals defense has been good at times but the Patriots have so many weapons and they are all healthy. I like New England at home by double digits.
