Baltimore Ravens vs Cleveland Browns Prediction & Picks - NFL

Prediction published on 9/14/25, 9:53 AM  by Travis Pulver | Modified on 10/15/25 at 8:19 AM in NFL Picks

After Week 1’s disappointing loss to the Bills, the Baltimore Ravens will be out for redemption when they take on their AFC North division rivals, the Cleveland Browns, at M&T Bank Stadium on Sunday, September 14, at 1 p.m. EST (broadcast on CBS).

While the Browns have been the picture of dysfunction in recent years, they played a solid game against the Bengals, holding their high-powered offense to 141 total yards and just 113 through the air. They couldn’t get the run game established, but Joe Flacco made up for it with 290 yards passing, but with two interceptions. Flacco has only had one start vs. the Ravens. It came in 2022 when he was with the Jets. He had a solid day in the passing game then, too (37-59 for 309 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. As good as the Ravens have been with Lamar Jackson at quarterback, they have had some issues with the Browns in recent seasons despite all of Cleveland’s internal problems. When they’ve won, they won big, like last season’s 35-10 victory late in the year. But, prior to that, the Browns had won four of the last six by five, two, ten, and two points.
