The Browns leave home for the first time this August, 2-0 SU and ATS under new head coach Rob Chudzinski and staff.
They will have a longer lead-in to the game than the Colts, who won on Sunday night after Cleveland played on Thursday. Brandon Weeden led consecutive TD drives on his only two possessions to start the season, then threw two first-half TD passes before calling it a night at halftime leading 17-3 vs. Detroit.

The Packers had all kinds of trouble on offense in the game that mattered against Seattle last season, but after settling for field goals against the Rams last weekend, they say that getting into the end zone is a priority for this game. Expect Rogers to play at least all of the first half in this effort.
Seattle is typically not strong on the road.

The Jets won 17-10 last year but gained only 17 first downs overall, and only 4 first downs passing. This time around, a more seasoned Gabbert, and Henne, will both play for Jacksonville. They are in a competition, too. Their receivers are no worse than the Jets who will once again be without Santonio Holmes.
The Jets were 0-4 SU and ATS in the 2012 pre-season, are 0-1 SU and ATS so far in August, 2013

RGII won't be playing and Cousins will more than likely get just one series under center. That leaves Rex Grossman to work most of the game at QB. But if it has to be Grossman, at least he has been with the team for four seasons and knows how the offense works.
The Titans like their improved offensive line on paper, but new pieces like veteran guard Andy Levitre and rookie tackle Chance Warmack weren

Miami initially opened as a 1-1/2-point underdog, but the line shifted in its favor after Dallas quarterback Tony Romo was ruled out of the game.
Miami is the favorite, but if its preseason goes anything like it did a year ago, Dallas is the better bet. Miami went 0-4 in the preseason last season as well as 0-4 against the spread.
Lots of talk about the new defensive scheme and the adjustments to it. It's the first preseason game and none of the starters are likely to play more than a series so that issue will be mitigated. Take the points

Preseason games are usually decided by 2nd and 3rd stringers. Basically it all about depth. Tonight wehave good depth vs. bad depth.
Houston won a lot of games with three different quarterbacks last season, as well as injuries to their best wide receiver and best defensive lineman. With all of that the Texans won 10 games plus a playoff game last season, while the Vikings won 3 games and made changes all over the roster.
