The Cleveland Browns will look to claim their first win of the season when they host the Baltimore Ravens. Here is how to watch or listen to the game.

The Cleveland Browns open the home portion of the 2016 NFL schedule today against the Baltimore Ravens.

While opening day has not been kind to the Browns over the years, Week 2 has been a different story as the team is 8-9 in the season’s second game since 1999. In addition, former head coaches Mike Pettine, Pat Shurmur, Romeo Crennel and Butch Davis all claimed their first wins in their second game.

For the second year in a row the Browns will also be starting their backup quarterback in the season’s second game after losing the starter in the opener. That means veteran quarterback Josh McCown is back in as the starter.

“It’s a division game and we know how important division games are and it’s the home opener. I think it was important not only for the younger guys but for all of us to know in this business, win or lose, you have to move on to next week and you can’t drag it in,” McCown said this week. “You can’t drag the previous week’s result into this week or it will affect the next game. We want to create that process now for the young guys and for ourselves because obviously we plan to be successful and that goes both ways. “
