NFL pick today: Washington Commanders -2.5 (-105) over Cleveland Browns, 1:00 pm ET
The Washington Commanders will look to keep pace in the NFC wild-card hunt as they host the Cleveland Browns in Week 17. Washington has a lot more to play for, and they just got Chase Young added back to an already stacked defensive front. Cleveland's defense has been playing a bit better on paper recently, but that's only because outside of their game against Cincinnati they have played some terrible offenses recently.
The Browns are just 1-4 in their last 5 games on the road, and that win came against the lowly Houston Texans. Washington is going back to Carson Wentz at quarterback, and while he isn't great, he is still probably an upgrade on Taylor Heinicke. He played pretty well against a really tough 49ers defense last week, completing 12 of his 16 passes after coming on in relief of Heinicke and not taking any sacks. For that reason, laying the points with the Commanders will be the play.
