Ravens vs. Browns: Baltimore wins AFC North showdown

Baltimore created just 282 yards of offense in the game with Zachary Beard of Baltimore Beatdown lamenting that once again, fans have to be happy with just getting a win.

The Ravens will take on the Oakland Raiders on Nov. 11, with kickoff set for 1 p.m. ET.

Weeden may still be a solid backup/QB2 over the second half of the season. The rookie is tough to recommend as a starting option in standard formats unless you are in a bind due to a bye week or injuries.

Richardson showed no signs of the ribs cartilage injury that rendered him ineffective in Week 7. Sunday’s game was a season (and career) high in terms of total yardage.

Fantasy Impact: The Browns are giving Richardson the ball any way they can right now, and that means very good things for fantasy owners. While the offense is struggling as a whole, the fact that Richardson is such a big part of the passing game makes him a safe weekly starter barring injury.

But the Browns couldn’t find the end zone and only mustered five field goals in five trips to the red zone.

After the Ravens’ first drive ended in a Ray Rice touchdown, it was looking like the Baltimore running back would be in for a huge day against the Browns. But a touchdown from change-of-pace back Bernard Pierce and increased intensity from Cleveland has Rice running into a wall of defenders, knocking his fantasy day from “potentially great” to “just okay.”

On Baltimore’s opening possession, Rice rushed for 32 yards and a score, and he picked up another 26 yards on the ensuing Ravens’ drive. After Pierce came in and took the score, Rice has just eight yards on three carries, as Baltimore has spent more time looking for yards through the air (with very little success).

As long as the game is close, T-Rich will keep getting carries, and he should be well over 100 yards on the day. If the Browns can get him involved in the passing game on some wheel routes, dumps over the middle and screen passes, he’ll be even more valuable, especially in PPR leagues.

The Ravens are reeling on defense, setting up the Browns for a productive day on the ground and through the air. Gordon is definitely worth fantasy consideration in standard formats this week. As for Massaquoi, hold off on targeting him off of waivers until you actually see him be productive.
