There’s no denying the intensity between these two teams when they take the field for a game. The fans don’t like each other, the players don’t like each other, and I’m pretty certain the coaches could take or leave each other as well.

This past week, the latest installment of the rivalry that really goes back to the Ravens being the Browns, had the two teams meeting each other without winning records since 2002 but that didn’t stop the game from coming down to the final seconds. In eight of the last ten meetings between these two teams, the game has been decided by 3 or fewer points.

If you want to talk intensity, check the injury reports for each team coming out of the game. It’s typically at least 10 players aside who have some form of bump or bruise as a result of the matchup. The two teams will meet again on Thanksgiving night this season which will sure to provide entertainment along with your slice of pie.
