Cleveland Browns: Game-by-predictions for remainder of 2019 season
By Leon West
Home vs. Baltimore Ravens (4-2)
Preview: The Browns and Ravens will both enter this game at 8-6. This will be the game that decides the division. After slowing down Lamar Jackson and company in Week 4, the Browns most complete game to date, the Ravens will be out seeking revenge. Baltimore will also be trying to become back to back division champs for the first time since 2012.
The two teams met in the final game of the 2018 season. They played a game down to the wire that saw the Ravens clinch the AFC North title on a tipped pass interception by C.J. Mosley. Mayfield will remember that game and the pain that followed. The team will recognize that all of their preseason goals are in front of them if they can take care of business in their home finale.
The Browns will! They will come out using the emotion from the crowd to get ahead early. Jackson will be forced to throw the Ravens out of a hole, and if Week 4 is any indication, he will be unsuccessful. The Browns will win the division for the first time since 1989.
Score: Browns 30, Ravens 21
Record: 9-6
Away vs. Cincinnati Bengals (0-6)
Preview: Cleveland will have everything clinched and care very little about this contest (what a feeling that will be). It’ll be a toss-up with a team trying to secure the top pick in the 2020 draft and a team just hoping to get out of the game injury-free.
Score: Browns 20, Bengals 14
Record: 10-6, AFC North Champs
