The Baltimore Ravens are about to play the Cleveland Browns and it’s prediction time. Here are three predictions:

1. Lamar Jackson will exact his revenge on the Browns:

Lamar Jackson actually had a decent game against the Browns earlier this season. If you took out the two turnovers, it was a solid day of work. He only had 10 incomplete passes for 247 total yards. He scored three touchdowns through the air and he had 66 yards on the ground. The good thing to remember here is that we already know that Jackson is capable of beating the Browns. If the defense would have showed up last time, Jackson’s numbers would have probably been enough to win this game. Jackson has had an MVP season and when he has a chip on his shoulder he always proves himself. This is going to be a huge day for the Pro Bowl quarterback. 

Jackson has been the difference maker on a weekly basis. It’s a big reason why the Ravens have won 10 games in a row. Jackson is coming off a game where he threw for 212 yards and had five touchdowns. He also had 86 yards on the ground. There have been defenses who could slow down Jackson but for 10 weeks in a row the Ravens haven’t been stopped. The defenses that have given the Ravens a good fight are better than the Browns.

All signs point to Jackson having his way with the Browns. When you look at what Jackson did the first time, before the Ravens got on a roll, the Browns have to be concerned. If Jackson doesn’t have the two interceptions in that game, it could have been different. When you look at what Jackson has been doing and how the Browns have been struggling overall as a team, it adds up to a good day for the NFL’s rightful MVP.
