Ravens 23 Browns 13 – This game is a complete mystery to me, but based on all the drama surrounding the Browns, even as banged up as they are in key positions I feel the Ravens are more stable at this point in the season, and will come out on Monday night and with a vet at QB in Matt Schaub will do enough to take home a win in a stinker of a game.

Browns 24 Ravens 13 – The Browns respond after another crazy week in Berea and win in front of a national television audience and sweep their division rivals for the first time since the 2007 season.

Ravens 31 Browns 16 – This could be one of, if not the worst MNF game of the year. But perhaps the most watched since the Browns are never on national TV.

Browns 24 Baltimore 10 – With Josh McCown at the helm, I see the Browns being able to pick apart the damaged Baltimore Ravens after defeating them once this season. Not seeing Johnny is disappointing but I would say its nationally accepted that McCown, when not having trouble trying to breath through his broken set of ribs, is more effective than Manziel and gives the Browns a better chance to win.

Baltimore 9 Cleveland 6 – The Ravens roll up 450+ total yards but can’t p=unch it into the end zone. They settle for field goal attempts and hit three of six in crappy weather. The Browns, late in the game, crack 100 total yards of offense, score a late touchdown and, for some reason, go for two…and fail to convert. After the game Josh McCown is filmed sharing chocolate milk with a troop of cub scouts, causing Mike Pettine to express his disappointment and commit to discussing it further after all the information is gathered. He then, after giving McCown a vote of confidence, announces Austin Davis as his starting quarterback the rest of the season. Davis celebrates with a juice box…in private.

CLE 13 BAL 10 – I feel bad for everyone watching. In the movie script of the Browns, the storm cloud will continue to hang over their head with a terrible game for both teams filled with horrendous play and plenty of penalties. In typical Browns fashion, they will mess something up and this time its draft order as McCown will march them down the field to have Coons hit a game winner as time expires and the Browns give up the first pick. The End.

Browns 24, Ravens 17 — Lost in all the Johnny hoopla was the fact that Josh McCown threw for a franchise-record 457 yards and won, 33-30, the last time these two teams played. And, the “Baltimore Thieves” are without Joe Flacco, Justin Forsett and Steve Smith this time. Sorry ESPN, you get McCown vs. Schaub, and you’ll get a Browns win.

Browns 28 Ravens 20
– There’s not a whole lot left to play for other than pride, but Josh McCown had arguably the best game of his career and broke the franchise record for passing yards in a game the last time these two teams met. The Ravens were terrible even with Joe Flacco, Steve Smith Sr., and Justin Forsett. Then again, the Browns are terrible, too. Knowing the Cleveland Browns way, they will pull out a win or two down the stretch to keep themselves from having the number one overall pick in the draft. Maybe the Ravens lose every game the rest of the way and take Joey Bosa, so another AFC North rival is bashing us with a former-Buckeye. Perhaps one positive of this season will be the Browns sweeping Art Modell’s franchise.
