The Ravens pulled out their second consecutive victory and first road win on Sunday against the Browns, but it wasn’t exactly a decisive one.  Both teams took turns leading the game until a huge catch by Steve Smith put the Ravens in field goal position, where Justin Tucker hit the game winner with no time left on the clock.
But a win is a win, and this ain’t your grandfather’s Browns for sure.  This is a team that knocked off the Saints at home last week after giving the Steelers a run for their money in Pittsburgh.  And as we predicted, they gave the Ravens all they could handle, falling just a little short at the end.
Certain position groups, like the defense, seemed to regress quite a bit after week two. Â But the running game stayed strong, and the passing game did just enough to keep the chains moving. Â As we always do, we took an in depth look at how each unit performed and assigned a letter grade. Â Here are your Baltimore Ravens vs. Cleveland Browns grades for week three.
