The New England Patriots celebrated a home win against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday to improve to 6-2 on the year. Their matchup with the top-ranked defense in football wasn’t always pretty, but in the end the Patriots did enough to beat yet another opponent by multiple scores, 32-13.

Patriots QB Drake Maye took a beating from Myles Garrett’s record-setting sack performance, but he still led New England to a commanding win over the Browns in Foxborough.

FOXBOROUGH — Though the Browns lost 32-13 at Gillette Stadium on Sunday, Myles Garrett couldn’t have done much more to help his team. The defensive lineman set a Cleveland franchise record with five sacks and was living in New England’s backfield all afternoon. “I would throw the whole performance away for a win,” Garrett said.
