Entering the 2022-23 season, Justin Herbert was the favorite QB at sites with legal betting to record the most passing yards. Four weeks in and Hebert has the most passing yards for any QB that has played four games at 1,250 yards total.

Even with a minor rib injury in week two, Herbert has averaged a league-high of 312 yards per game. He threw for 340 yards and two TDs in week four against the Texans. Herbert is also fifth on the list of leading QBs for passing TDs with nine total, averaging 2.25 per game in 2022 and 2.24 in 2021.

• Under 1.5 Passing TDs +110

Betting on Jacoby Brissett’s Props

• Over 211.5 Passing Yards -115
• Under 211.5 Passing Yards -115

The Cleveland Browns picked up Brissett after trading for Deshaun Watson and accepting that Baker Mayfield was not going to stay in Cleveland. After four starts with the new team, Brissett has been productive with 830 total passing yards, four passing TDs, and only two interceptions. Averaging 207.5 yards per game in 2022, Brissett is slightly below his projected total for Sunday.

The Browns have gone 1-1 at home this season and Brissett has thrown for a total of 343 yards in FirstEnergy Stadium. In order for Brissett to hit the over for week five, the Browns are going to have to get Amari Cooper involved in the game. Cooper only had one reception for nine yards during their week four loss but had over a hundred yards receiving in both of their two home games played.

Averaging one TD per game, the under is more favorable for legal NFL betting for Brissett’s total passing TDs for week five. The Browns have relied on their strong running game for scoring in the red zone, with Brissett rushing for one of his own.

• Over 1.5 Passing TDs +185
• Under 1.5 Passing TDs -250
