The Cleveland Browns square off on Christmas Eve against their divisional rival the Baltimore Ravens. The Browns’ season has been over for weeks and the Ravens have already clinched a playoff berth at this point in their 2011 campaign.
For the Browns, playing spoiler and evaluating talent remains the only motivation behind playing these last two games.
They could usurp the division leading Baltimore Ravens. But in doing so, they would catapult another rival—the Pittsburgh Steelers—into the driver seat of the AFC North.
A key matchup will again be the imposing Ravens rushing attack against the battered Browns defensive front. The last time these two teams met, in Week 12, the Ravens racked up 290 yards on the ground. The Ravens will have to run more this week after Anquan Boldin has been ruled out for the remainder of the regular season.
Whatever the outcome, the young Browns will continue to play hard for rookie head coach Pat Shurmur and grow as a unit.
Updated score: Game is to kickoff at 1 pm EST.
