The Baltimore Ravens (3-1) were once again able to overcome significant player absences, including two key receivers and a prime offensive lineman, to dominate Cleveland (2-2) and trounce the Browns in a 28-3 on-the-road victory.

Lamar Jackson shone as bright as ever as he ran for two touchdowns and threw for two more against the so-called and self-crowned Browns' "top-ranked" defense in the NFL...

Cleveland struggled with rookie QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson, replacing the injured Deshaun Watson, and the Ravens claimed the AFC North's top spot, showcasing their dominant game and simply giving no chance to a very disappointing Browns squad.

A few Ravens players (Lamar Jackson and Roquan Smith) spoke at the podium after the game following head coach John Harbaugh. Others shared videos on their personal social network accounts, including a comprehensive interview tour by Marlon Humphrey.

Here is everything the Ravens had to say about the Week 4 28-3 demolition of the Browns at Cleveland and all of what happened on the field inside the Dawg Pound on the first day of October.

Head Coach - John Harbaugh: "Our guys have taken advantage of the [AFC North-laden schedule] so far"

" It's a good start. We have all these AFC North road games on our schedule right away, and that's an opportunity, and our guys have taken advantage of that so far," Harbaugh said.

"I thought our [running] backs ran super well – hard down hill [runs]. Some of the gap schemes – those are tough. Our offensive line, those guys are penetrating up field. They're very good players – inside and on the edge, and the [running] backs are [heading] down hill hitting gaps. So, you have to stop the penetration, and you have to get off those blocks and get those linebackers before they get in your backfield and make a play. Offensive line, tight ends – just [did] a tremendous job with that this game."

Quarterback - Lamar Jackson: "There's still room to grow for us. We're still building"

"We had mishaps on the field. We had a fumble that gave the ball back to the defense. I thought our defense made a great stop. I feel like we left points on the board," Jackson said.

"Last week, I was just immature, so [I] just have to be week-in and week-out consistent with those situations. Me being a quarterback and me having the ball in my possession every drive, [I] just have to keep getting better at that and just keep staying focused."

Linebacker - Roquan Smith: "When that whistle blows, I'm going 100 miles an hour all game long"

"I don't really care how people take things out of context," Smith said. "I know what I meant, and the people who are close to me know exactly what I meant by those comments. It was just the way I felt about going to war with my brothers. Honestly, if you need bulletin board material in this game to go play the game a different way, you're playing the game for the wrong reasons. I don't need anybody to say anything for me, because guess what? When that whistle blows, I'm going 100 miles an hour all game long, and regardless of what someone says, 'Ro' is going to play the same way."

"I feel like we played a really good game, defensively, besides letting our rush out at the end of the game – little things like that get to me, but we sealed it with an interception. It was a great team win. I enjoyed going out there with the guys [and] laying it out on the line every single play. It's what I pride myself on, and it was a great team win."

Tight End - Mark Andrews: "We come out here every week ready to go – ready to play"

"It feels good to be back and be back and feeling better and healthy. I'm just trying to help this team win games and make plays. Personally, I made a step in the right direction. As an offense, we need to be better. I think Coach 'Monk' [Todd Monken] called a really good game. And as we get guys back healthy, we're going to be better," Andrews said.

"You look at the type of game that we played today, [and] you have to give credit where credit is due. Special teams, defense – they played really good games. They had our backs. We had their backs. I think the offense – we did a good job moving the ball. We had some really good drives. We did some really good things, and we have to be able to stack and continue to do that, drive after drive after drive – being a really good offense like we know we can be. There were times today that it looked really, really good."

Wide Receiver - Zay Flowers: "Whoever turns up next, we are all prepared to take over"

"Everybody prepares the same way. So, we bring … Whoever turns up next, we are all prepared to take over that role and do what we have to do to get a win. And last week, we were disappointed. So we came out this week and were detailed and executed everything we needed to," Flowers said.

"You never know what you're going to get. [Lamar Jackson] can run it, [or] he can throw it. He can do whatever you need him to do to get in the end zone. So, when we're down there, it's kind of like automatic."
