NFL Week 5, 2018: 20 Bold predictions to consider

18. Browns upset Ravens

Instead of sitting at 1-2-1, it’s crazy to think about how the Cleveland Browns could very well be sitting at 4-0 if they did a much better job at closing out games, but looking back wondering what could have been won’t do anything moving forward. Instead, the best thing the Browns can do is focus on their next matchup at home with the Baltimore Ravens coming to town.

Football fans in general know just how great of a rivalry this has been over the years, even if Cleveland hasn’t been that good of a football team in a very long time. At the moment, the Ravens are one of the hottest teams in the AFC with their 3-1 record, but that doesn’t mean the team is guaranteed to come through with the victory in Week 5.

Whether Baltimore wants to hear it or not, Cleveland could be playing with a little extra motivation when seeing the results of last Sunday’s loss to the Oakland Raiders since they simply let this game slip away. Plus, even though Baker Mayfield was technically responsible for helping the Browns escape with their Week 3 win over the Jets, the top overall pick is still in search for that first win as a starter, and would love to see it take place come Sunday.
