Browns rookie QB Brandon Weeden has grown since his last matchup with the Ravens.

The Browns seem to be transforming themselves to a team similar to the way the Ravens were built.

[TorryGundy]

They are balanced on offense. If they cut down the drops they could very well have a winning record. They play hard and are better then what their record says.

[gamewrecker]

"What makes it difficult is that they can run the ball well," Williams said. "When they're out there running the ball and getting 100 yards a game, that opens up the passing lanes for him and Weeden's able to go out and perform at a high level."

What a novel concept.

the offense needs to get the ball rolling this week or honestly the Ravens might not win against a below average to mediocre team they should beat 10 out of 10 times

The Browns do this every couple of years. The get a rookie QB and a young running back, have themselves a few good games, and then after a bad second year draft another QB and running back.

Same old same old Browns This is one of those teams that once they get a winning streak they feed on it. Now that they are home something can happen, hopefully we pill this one out tomorrow a big win that is. With all that rest I hope our guys are healthy now because we need this game to start the second half.Good luck tomorrow guys because we are going to need it.We smell Spittburghs breath down our neck.

In the four games since then, Weeden has thrown six touchdowns to three interceptions, and averaged a quarterback rating of 82.2, which isn't far off Joe Flacco's current quarterback rating of 84.0.

so after 7 games the browns "rookie" QB's rating is similar to our 5th year starting QB's rating? what are you gonna do about that Joe? i want to see!

You didn't read it correctly, in the last "four" games, Weeden has had a QB rating of 82.2. For the season, his QB rating is 70.2.

The fact that everyone knows how dangerous Cleveland can be tells me that we are not going to go into Cleveland and underestimate them. I think we need to go in there and slow the game down while executing. We are the better team, we just need to play to our potential.

thanks BDC. my whole point was that our 5th year starting QB's rating definitely needs to be and should be better than the rookies. other than that, i wanna see how Joe responds after that horrible loss and the bye week.

Weeden and the Browns are improving and the Ravens have been regressing. Hmmmmm.........They now have a running game and a passing game and our defense is sliding. Hmmmmmm.........Doesn't fill me with a great deal of confidence. We shall see.

[Berkeley_Raven]

Weeden totally looks like Will Ferrell trying to dress up like a QB...

[Ravenade]

Weeden is going to throw another interception for a touchdown and Terrell Suggs and Co. are going to shut the run down. Then Flacco and Ray Rice are going to get the ball rolling with a nice mixture away from home.

[CxM_27]

Our defense will struggle because Pees Sucks

[ellicottraven]

@CxM_27 - Our defense won't struggle because Pees sucks, but because they cannot make a tackle lately!

[Purple Dawg 96]

Brandon Weeden can do damage but he hasnt met "Sizzle" yet! No QB is Safe! Nada!

[Tyrone Jones]

92 55 = double team. Someone will be free to sack Weeden. If we run the ball successful I don't see us losing this game

[Postapocalypse Raven]

Kinda looks like Will Ferrell to me... one big clown!!!

Really? How many other examples do you have of this so called "every few years" pattern?
