The Ravens returned a blocked field goal for a touchdown as time-expired to beat the Browns on the road. 

The matchup between the Cleveland Browns and the Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football was never going to light the world on fire as it was more a matchup to see which of the two teams was going to be in the driver’s seat for the No. 1 pick in the 2016 NFL Draft. When Johnny Manziel was benched and moved from starter to third-string quarterback for Cleveland and with Joe Flacco lost for the rest of the year due to an ACL injury, the game lost even that bit of potential excitement coming into it.

However, the two teams delivered on the drama despite their lack of starting quarterbacks and the lack of wins between the two teams. Matt Schaub threw a pick-six when the Ravens looked like they might jump out to a big lead at the start of the second half, Josh McCown made way for Austin Davis after getting injured, and then Davis converted on a fourth down and threw a 42-yard touchdown pass to tie the game at 27-27 late in the fourth quarter.

With under five minutes in the final period, both the Ravens and Browns managed to put forth three-and-out possessions, leaving Schaub and the Ravens with the ball and just over a minute left. Ever the Matt Schaub thing to do, the Ravens quarterback threw an interception at around midfield. This allowed Austin Davis and the offense to come in and gain a first down and put the game in the hands of kicker Travis Coons. Then came all of the drama that anyone needed. Coons’ kick was blocked and Will Hill picked it up. He looked like he might go down, but he wandered into space, got some blocking, and turned on the jets as he returned it for a touchdown and the walkoff victory as time expired.

Three stars

The Ravens special teams came up huge in this game as they opened up the game with a punt return touchdown and the game-winning blocked field goal returned for a touchdown.

Cleveland quarterbacks were quite solid in this game. Before his injury, Josh McCown threw for 212 yards and a touchdown. Austin Davis came in after the injury to McCown and went 6-9 for 71 yards and a touchdown, including the late game-tying touchdown.

Kamar Aiken was solid in the loss for the Ravens as he caught six passes for 80 yards and a touchdown despite the fact that Matt Schaub started at quarterback for Baltimore.

Highlights

Odds

The Browns were 2.5-point favorites in this game, which they failed to cover in the loss. The over/under was set at 41 points, with the two teams combining to hit on the over.
