The Baltimore Ravens (8-4) visit the Cleveland Browns (6-6) for a Week 14 matchup Sunday. Kickoff from FirstEnergy Stadium in Cleveland is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET (CBS). Below, we look at the Ravens vs. Browns odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.
The Ravens are looking to rebound after a crushing 20-19 loss at the Pittsburgh Steelers last week, failing on a 2-point conversion inside the final minute. The Ravens offense has struggled, averaging just 15.3 points per game (PPG) across the past four outings, all Under results.
The Browns, who had a bye last week, face the Ravens in back-to-back games as they lost 16-10 at Baltimore in Week 12. Playing a team in consecutive regular-season games is a scheduling quirk we haven’t had in the NFL since 1991, and it’s the first time the Browns faced the same opponent in back-to-back games since 1957.

Ravens at Browns odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Ravens 20, Browns 16
Money line
The RAVENS (+120) are the play here. They topped the Browns in Baltimore on SNF two weeks ago despite 4 interceptions and a minus-2 turnover differential. That kind of sloppy play isn’t happening again, and the Browns are just too banged up to do much more than they have lately.
Against the spread
RAVENS +2.5 (+100) are a good play if you’re expecting a repeat of last week when Baltimore lost by one point. But the Browns haven’t covered in three games and are just 2-6 ATS across the past eight. Baltimore dominates this series. Sunday won’t be any different.
Over/Under
Roll with the UNDER 42.5 (-108) in this rematch in Cleveland. The weather forecast calls for wins of 16 mph blowing in off of Lake Erie. That should encourage both sides to keep the ball on the ground. The breezy conditions might also hamper kicking efforts, which is great news for Under bettors.
