Matchup Breakdown

How the model sees it unfold — the matchups that decide the game, from 50 simulations
Keys to the Game
  • Quinshon Judkins (Browns) vs Kyle Hamilton (Ravens) - winner: Kyle Hamilton, holding him to 2.0 yds a carry - bottled up between the tackles.
  • Maliek Collins (Browns) vs Cam Jurgens (Ravens) - winner: Maliek Collins, winning 56% of reps for 0.9 sacks and 4.5 pressures a game - a one-man wrecking crew off the edge.
  • Zay Flowers (Ravens) vs Denzel Ward (Browns) - winner: Zay Flowers, open on 59% of routes for 5.6/7.4, 59 yds a game - separation all day.
In the Trenches
  • Pressure could be scarce for the Ravens — a 48% win rate, 4.9 sacks and 22.4 pressures a game, and Trenton Simpson (2.0 sacks, 7.0 pressures a game) headlines it.
  • The Ravens' quarterback should have time; the Browns win just 52% of reps for 4.7 sacks a game, with Jared Verse (1.9 sacks, 7.4 pressures a game) setting the tone.
Through the Air
  • Zay Flowers headlines the Ravens' receiving corps — 5.6 catches for 59 yds a game on 59% separation.
  • The Browns' aerial attack runs through Denzel Boston (41 yds a game, open on 52% of routes).
  • Kyle Hamilton (Ravens) locks down his side, giving up open windows on just 37% of routes with 0.1 INT a game.
On the Ground
  • The Ravens hand it to Derrick Henry early and often, 17 carries for 68 yds a game at 4.0 a carry, with the holes opening off the right edge.
  • Quinshon Judkins is the workhorse for the Browns, churning 22 yds a game at 2.0 a carry against a stingy front.
