The Browns and the Ravens met in the final game of the regular season
The Cleveland Browns and the Baltimore Ravens met in Week 18 of the regular season, in what represented the final game for one of the most dreadful seasons of all time for Cleveland. On the other hand, Baltimore had a simple task: win the game and the AFC North would have a winner.
Ad
The Ravens entered the game with a huge favoritism, with the betting markets giving them a 20-point favoritism. From the first drive, with an interception thrown by quarterback Bailey Zappe, it was clear how the day would go, and Baltimore never looked back on the scoreboard.
The 35-10 score made it clear that Baltimore had the upper hand in the division. With the AFC North now belonging to them, they have officially locked the third seed in the conference, and will play next week against the sixth seed in the Wild Card Round.

Kevin Stefanski wanted to share snaps between Zappe and Dorian Thompson-Robinson, but there was no real share: Zappe, who became the 40th quarterback to ever start a game for the Cleveland Browns since 1999, completed just over 50% of his throws. It was not an impressive night for him.

Jerry Jeudy finished a strong season for the Browns with another good performance, which would never be an explosive one due to the lack of consistency in the quarterback position. Cleveland gave some touches to Jacob Kibodi as an opportunity to asses where he is as a player.

Lamar solidified his MVP berth with two more passing touchdowns to close the regular season. With Josh Allen not playing in Week 18, voters will now have to decide what to do between the two superstar quarterback, with Joe Burrow also in the race.

Derrick Henry did all that he could to put his name in the Offensive Player of the Year conversation, although he's likely to fall behind Saquon Barkley, who surpassed the 2,000-yard mark. With yet another strong performance, Henry finished the year with 1,921 rushing yards.

About the author
Henrique Bulio
Henrique Bulio is an NFL and College Football journalist at Sportskeeda and the Editor-in-Chief of Pro Football Brasil. He has a total 13 years of experience working in American Football, and playing quarterback at an amateur level in Brazil has given him a unique perspective of the game.
Henrique follows the Philadelphia Eagles closely due to Michael Vick's historic performance on MNF against the Washington Commanders in 2010. His all-time favorite player is Ed Reed; he believes that Reed is the greatest safety to ever play the game. Bill Belichick gets the nod as Henrique's favorite coach for coaching the Patriots to glory over two decades.
If Henrique were to be able to go back in time and watch one game, it would be Super Bowl XLIX, where the Patriots and the Seahawks played a complete, back-and-forth game that concluded with one of the biggest talking points in NFL history.
Technical deep dives are Henrique’s specialty, and he ensures never to use misleading words in his articles, since he himself consumes a lot of information off the web. He has had the privilege of interviewing Cairo Santos, Lamar Jackson, Jim Harbaugh, Sean McDermott, Bruce Arians, Matt LaFleur, among others.
Aside from football, Henrique likes to play poker and Counter-Strike.
