Ravens get closer to bye with 20-14 win over Browns

At the end of the game, quarterback Joe Flacco used a hard count to ice the game for the Baltimore Ravens (11-4). Baltimore got themselves closer to a division title and a top-two seed in the AFC playoffs with a 20-14 victory over the Cleveland Browns (4-11).

Flacco once again had an uneven game. He completed eight of his first 11 passes for two touchdowns, but had trouble in the second half. Part of his struggles led to an interception in the end zone on a bomb to Lee Evans. Flacco ended the day 11-of-24 for 132 yards with two touchdowns and the interception.

The quarterback also watched his receivers, Ed Dickson and Torrey Smith, dropped a few passes on third downs. Those drops could have easily led to a couple continued drives.
