Baltimore Ravens already losing faith in their team? The Cleveland Browns are optimistic, meanwhile

During the season, Cleveland Browns fans vote in SB Nation Reacts to express their confidence level in the team or their thoughts on other topics.

Even though the Browns lost their season opener to the Bengals by a score of 17-16, fan confidence actually jumped from 66% to 76%. Joe Flacco executed the offense as well as we could have asked him too, and the defense had one of the most dominant second halves you can ask for. Unfortunately, “only in Cleveland” struck again with two bobbled passes that led to interceptions, as well as a couple of missed field...

Browns, Ravens rule 3 out, 2 Ques. for Week 2, Quinshon Judkins update

When the Cleveland Browns and Baltimore Ravens meet in Week 2 of the 2025 regular season, neither team will be whole due to injuries. Given the nature of the sport, that might be true for the rest of the year as well. The Browns are big underdogs heading into the game, which DE Myles Garrett is well aware, and also have two important players listed as questionable for the game.

The Ravens, celebrating 30 years of acquiring a stolen team, have already ruled out two starters for the AFC North matchup. Both Cleveland and Baltimore head into the game having...

Browns vs. Ravens: Week 2 Need to Know

Browns vs. Ravens: Week 2 Need to Know

The Cleveland Browns open AFC North divisional play on Sunday when they take on the Baltimore Ravens.

It will be a homecoming for Cleveland quarterback Joe Flacco, who spent 11 seasons with Baltimore but will be making his first start in the stadium since 2018.

The Ravens, because they are a garbage franchise, will use the game as a celebration of 30 years in Baltimore after the franchise moved from Cleveland after the 1995 season.

Both the Browns and Ravens are coming off disappointing losses and will be desperate to avoid an 0-2 start to the season.

It is the...

Ravens Week 2: Myles Garrett very aware of Browns being huge betting underdog

Ravens Week 2: Myles Garrett very aware of Browns being huge betting underdog

Not a single soul was surprised when the Cleveland Browns opened Week 2 as underdogs to the Baltimore Ravens on the road. Both teams found a way to lose games they “should have” won in Week 1, but the Ravens were preseason favorites in the AFC North (and AFC as a whole) while the Browns were favorites to be picking in the Top 3-5 of the 2026 NFL draft.

We have a lot of interesting storylines for Week 2 as Baltimore celebrates 30 years after they stole the team from Cleveland, [Grant Delpit had some stuff to say about **Derrick...

Should the Browns play Quinshon Judkins on Sunday?

Should the Browns play Quinshon Judkins on Sunday?

The Cleveland Browns were not exactly robust when it came to running the ball in Week 1.

Going up against a Cincinnati Bengals defense that is no one’s idea of stout, the Browns managed just 49 rushing yards and two yards per carry behind the trio of veteran Jerome Ford and rookies Dylan Sampson and Raheim Sanders.

While Sanders did score a rushing touchdown, and Sampson had a solid debut with a team-high 93 yards of total offense, his numbers were inflated by catching eight passes for 64 yards. When it came to running the ball, Sampson had team highs...

Browns vs. Ravens: Crucial trench matchups that could decide the game in week 2

Browns vs. Ravens: Crucial trench matchups that could decide the game in week 2

The Cleveland Browns travel to Baltimore to play the Ravens on Sunday, and they’ll have a little more motivation seeing as Baltimore has decided to honor and celebrate the one person who destroyed the Browns organization 25 years ago.

Art Modell.

Though it’s kind of odd that their 30th anniversary celebration just happens to fall on the date that they play Cleveland, it is what it is. There’s nothing that the Browns can do about it other than to completely dominate and humiliate the Ravens on Sunday.

If that’s their plan, then these matchups will be crucial to their success:...

Browns Harold Fannin, Ravens Lamar Jackson, Derrick Henry on record watch already

The NFL season is one week (and one Thursday Night Football game) old and already we have some interesting records to watch. In a positive, and not surprising, given all the lauding the rookie class has gotten from Week 1, the Cleveland Browns are on the good side.

As is their Week 2 opponent, the Baltimore Ravens.

Weekly, the NFL sends out a wide variety of notes to the media for the upcoming week. This week, Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr., along with Indianapolis Colts TE Tyler Warren, have a chance to have the most receptions by rookie tight ends...

Sashi Brown’s revenge? Ravens 30-year celebration has Browns fans, media upset

Art Modell bought the Cleveland Browns back in 1961. He was the majority owner of a group that was just the third ownership group in the history of the franchise, dating back to 1946.

RELATED: THE STORY OF THE WEDGE BETWEEN MODELL AND PAUL BROWN

Modell then relocated the franchise to Baltimore beginning in the 1996 season.

This season marks the 30th Anniversary of their first year in the league as the Baltimore Ravens. Their first game in 2025 was on the road against the Buffalo Bills. This Sunday, September 14, is their first home game. Naturally, the front office...

The first injury report for Week 2 of the 2025 NFL season sees the Cleveland Browns once again matching up with an AFC North foe, this time the Baltimore Ravens. Unlike most weeks, the Browns roster started the practice sessions healthier than the Ravens did.

We know that Cleveland is planning to stick with K Andre Szmyt for the Week 2 AFC North matchup that includes QB Joe Flacco facing his former team in Baltimore for the first time ever. The underdog Browns could pull off a huge upset or [be the medicine the Ravens need after melting down in...

Browns vs. Ravens Week 2 predictions: Experts want to show Cleveland respect, just not against Baltimore

Browns vs. Ravens Week 2 predictions: Experts want to show Cleveland respect, just not against Baltimore

The Cleveland Browns seemed to gain some respect with their Week 1 effort against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Baltimore Ravens had their own version of a meltdown that cost them the game. This will be an interesting week, because if the Browns’ defense is for real, then there is no reason to think Baltimore is in for a cakewalk. With that said, the perception out there is that Baltimore is a top team in the NFL. So while the Browns are getting some respect, the feeling is, “Yeah, just not this week against the Ravens.”

Here is what the national...
