Baltimore at Cleveland

October 18, 2026
img1:00 PM Eastern

Baltimore trailed Atlanta 14-9 at halftime last Sunday, tied it at 23 in regulation, and won 30-23 in overtime. That 9 was the Ravens’ lowest first-half total of the season, and it came with Tyler Huntley at quarterback while Lamar Jackson was out with a sprained ankle. Their two big first halves, 31 and 24 points, came against Indianapolis and Tennessee. Against New Orleans and Dallas, they scored 14 and 17. Jackson is listed as questionable for Sunday. Cleveland has allowed 10 or fewer first-half points in four straight games: 9 to Tampa Bay, 3 to Carolina, 10 to Pittsburgh and 7 to the Jets. I had the Browns with the points against Pittsburgh on October 1, and they won 27-24. The Browns score 8.6 points per first half this season. Cleveland has trailed by 24, trailed by 3, led by 7, led by 11, and trailed by 1 at the half. Cleveland is the play with the points in the first half on Sunday afternoon.
