Summary:

Baltimore has absolutely dominated this match-up having won 15 of the last 17 head to head games.  The Ravens offense has really struggled but look for them to put up some big numbers against a Browns defense that is arguably the worst in the NFL.  Adding star linebacker Jamie Collins from New England was good pickup for Cleveland but they have way too many holes on defense.  Browns rookie quarterback Cody Kessler has shown promise completing nearly 68% of his passes with 5 touchdowns to just 1 interception.  The Ravens have one of the NFL’s top ten defenses, so I don’t see Cleveland being able to score enough points to pull off the road upset.
