What is the story about?

The Cleveland Browns will try to get back to their winning ways on Sunday as they host the Baltimore Ravens in downtown Cleveland.

This was looking to be a spicy meeting of first-place teams before the Browns stumbled last week in a loss to the New York Jets. But a win would still propel the Browns into first place in the AFC North Division, as they would hold the current tiebreaker over both the Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers by virtue of wins against both teams.

The Ravens come into the tilt riding

a three-game winning streak thanks to last week’s overtime win against Atlanta that was orchestrated by backup quarterback Tyler Huntley, who will get the start again this week as quarterback Lamar Jackson is still sidelined with an ankle injury.

Huntley has won three consecutive games in place of Jackson, with the Ravens averaging 33.7 points per game, so Cleveland’s defense may not be catching a break on Sunday.

Speaking of Cleveland’s defense, they still have some key pieces ailing as defensive tackles Kalia Davis and Mike Hall Jr. will both miss the game, while defensive end Derek Barnett, defensive tackle Mason Graham, and linebacker Carson Schwesinger are all questionable.

It’s the Browns vs. the Ravens with first place on the line, and here is everything to know about the game.

A Final Quote

Defensive coordinator Mike Rutenberg on the plan to slow down the Ravens:

“We’re going to be an attack front. It’s rooted in this Cleveland Browns defense. We’re going to jump out of our shoes, and we’re going to try and play on their side of the line of scrimmage no matter what. And that’s the basis of this front. That’s why I always call it the engine. And like I tell you guys every week, we go as they go, and I’m excited about the way they’re going.”
