“If it wasn’t a road divisional matchup, Sunday might have been a field day for the Ravens. They’ll still eek out a win and get to .500 on the year.” |

Ravens 27, Browns 13: “As long as the Ravens take care of the ball, and hassle the younger Browns into a turnover or two themselves, Cleveland isn’t good enough to trap them, even on its home turf.” |
| Giana Han |
|
Ravens 30, Browns 17: “In a game that features Dillon Gabriel vs. the Ravens’ defense, and Lamar Jackson vs. the Browns’ defense, I’ll take the Ravens in both matchups. The Ravens’ defense is on the upswing, while Cleveland’s offense is on the struggle bus. Although the Browns’ defense has been elite to start the year, it hasn’t been enough to make up for their offensive shortcomings. And Jackson and his stars are on the rise.” |
| Paul Mancano |
|
Ravens 30, Browns 17: “If Baltimore can get the ball moving on the ground Sunday, it would take pressure off a passing attack that could be without wideout Rashod Bateman.” |
| Jonas Shaffer |
|
Ravens 20, Browns 13: “Even if Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry struggle, the defense and special teams should be good enough to set the Ravens up for success. I don’t expect another blowout, but it’s hard to imagine the Browns taking a sizable lead at any point.” |
| Childs Walker |
|
Ravens 27, Browns 16: “The Ravens’ defense enjoyed its only early-season success against Cleveland and is playing far better now. Rookie Dillon Gabriel is more mobile than Joe Flacco, who started in Baltimore, but hasn’t been able to punish opponents downfield. The Ravens know they can’t afford to slip up, and they won’t.” |
| Brandon Weigel |
|
Ravens 24, Browns 20: “Cleveland’s defense is a formidable unit, ranking second in passing yards per game allowed (167) and 10th in rushing yards per game allowed (97.9), and that leads me to believe the score will be much closer in the rematch. The Ravens’ offensive inconsistencies Sunday against the Vikings are fresh on my mind, too. But this Browns offense, behind rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel, isn’t striking fear in anyone.” |

Ravens 24, Browns 13: “The Ravens are back to feeling it with Lamar Jackson and his weapons and they need to keep clicking with Derrick Henry, likely to be contained by a tougher Browns run defense at home. Baltimore's defense has gotten much better vs. the pass of late and it will be just fine vs. Dillon Gabriel.” |

Ravens 22, Browns 16: “The Ravens have come to life with Lamar Jackson back, but they are playing consecutive road games. It won't matter. The Browns have a good defense, but the offense is limited. The Ravens and Jackson will win it, but it's close thanks to the Cleveland defense.” |

Ravens 21, Browns 17: “The Browns are better at home than they are on the road, but still not good enough to upset a surging Baltimore team.” |
| Chris Simms |
|
Ravens 28, Browns 13: “It won’t be easy for Lamar and company against that Cleveland Browns defense. They can do it all, but this is a high-functioning offense and it’s another week of Lamar being able to get healthy.” |
