New England is in Cleveland on Thursday night, 8 p.m. ET on Prime Video, and the theScore Bet promo code ACTNEWS backs your opening NFL wager with a First Bet Reset worth up to $1,000. Place your first bet on Patriots vs. Browns, and if it loses, the full stake comes back as bonus bets, so a cold start does not cost you the night.
A reset that size gives you room to take a real swing instead of a safe minimum. Put it on a side, the total, or a player prop, and you are covered up to $1,000 if it misses. theScore Bet also builds parlays in seconds, which fits a Thursday nighter where a late inactive or a depth-chart note can move odds right up to kickoff.
Click the module below to get started with the theScore Bet promo code ACTNEWS before kickoff for Patriots vs. Browns.

How the theScore Bet Bet Reset Works
A reset is a safety net, not a bonus chase. Put up to $1,000 on your first bet and theScore Bet hands the stake back if it loses. Win and you just keep the cash.
That changes what you should bet. When the downside is covered, the right play is a number you actually like, not the one most likely to cash. Burning the reset on a short favorite you would normally skip wastes it. Back a price you believe in.

Patriots vs. Browns Odds
| Team | Spread | Moneyline | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| New England Patriots | -2.5 (-110) | -142 | O 34.5 (-118) |
| Cleveland Browns | +2.5 (-110) | +120 | U 34.5 (-104) |
Patriots vs. Browns Prediction
Pick: Browns +120
Preseason Week 3 comes down to one question, and it is not which roster is better. It is who actually plays. A road team laying 2.5 in late August is priced off names that might see eight snaps before handing the game to the third string.
Cleveland is home, getting points, and still sorting out the back of its roster. New England locked in its depth chart weeks ago. In a game that gets decided by fourth-string reps, that head start matters more than any talent edge on paper.
With a reset behind it, take the moneyline instead of the 2.5. Plus money on a home dog is the exact spot a safety net is built for, and if it misses you get the stake back. Just check the inactives before kickoff. One snap-count report moves this number more than anything either team did in Week 2, and the late move will show up on the NFL odds page.
Bottom Line
A $1,000 reset from theScore Bet promo code ACTNEWS, and it suits a game where nobody knows who is playing until an hour before kickoff. Bet something you actually like, and get back bonus bets if the wager doesn't pan. Thursday's other options are on the NFL betting promos page and anyone new to sports betting can start there.
