“I like to win, so if it comes down to me trying to make a play for our team to win I’m going to go for it”. Get off the ball, knock our guy back, separate from a block violently, tackle.
The Cleveland Browns and Baltimore Ravens face off on Sunday afternoon at M&T Bank Stadium.
The Ravens have reached the playoffs in six of the last seven years. Cleveland’s 31st-ranked defense is allowing over 140 yards per game on the ground.
On third-and-13 at the Browns’ 38, quarterback Josh McCown completed a 22-yard pass to wide receiver Andrew Hawkins on a hook route over the middle. But the Ravens team they are facing with McCown isnt as good as the ones that have routinely frustrated opponents since 2000. Green hit them for an 80-yard touchdown play in their loss to Cincinnati.
Several of the Browns coaches and players are very familiar with the opposition and how they operate.
The good news is, the Ravens still have a great shot at improving to 2-3 this week after a awful 0-3 start, even with Steve Smith already ruled out. So far this season he has 29 catches for 373 yards and two touchdowns, making him the team’s best receiver by a lot. Linebacker Ray Lewis, safety Ed Reed and defensive lineman Haloti Ngata are gone.
Dumervil has sacks in each of the last two games and Smith got the first two of his career against Pittsburgh. With a defense that can’t seem to stop anyone, big things are expected from the Cleveland offense. Now, as mentioned with the offense above-this is usually where the Browns allow a “no-name” player of sorts to become a star. Plus, despite head coach John Harbaugh’s bold tendency to go for it on fourth downs, Baltimore is converting those plays at a 60 percent pace that ranks tied for 16th in the 32-team league. Here is how I feel the game will play out. The defense also has never been able to fluster Flacco, who is 13-1 against the Browns. The Browns could take advantage of Baltimore’s reputation as a slow starter on defense. Paul Kruger, the linebacker for the Browns spent his first four seasons with the Ravens. Cleveland fared well against the Chargers, however, yielding a season-low 91 rushing yards.
Another way the Browns can potentially “slow down” the Baltimore running backs is to send extra pressure at whoever is starting at left tackle on Sunday.
The Ravens not only have to Smith out, but they also have wide receiver Michael Campanaro, out with a herniated disk. It will be interesting to see whether he can continue his excellent record against the Browns in this Week 5 match up. There’s no way they will let this game slip through their fingers, especially at home.
