Baltimore Ravens vs Cleveland Browns Prediction
I’ll go with Baltimore. The Ravens had some wild stats (both good and bad) in their Monday win over Tampa Bay, but they got the job done. Baltimore posted 508 total yards (264 passing) with 9.4 yards per play and 22 first downs. The nine penalties didn’t help matters, though. On defense, the Ravens gave up 481 yards (356 passing) with 29 first downs and a stellar 12-of-18 on third-down tries. Honestly, Baltimore’s defense should have a much easier time here.
As for Cleveland, they had a pretty rough loss against the Bengals last weekend despite holding Cincinnati to just 223 yards (164 passing), 12 first downs, and 2-of-13 on third-down tries. The Browns also put up a couple of interceptions and had 10 penalties in the defeat. Cleveland hasn’t scored more than 18 points in any game this year so it’s tough to trust them right now.
