Rocky Friedman: Though the Ravens struggled against a fourth-string quarterback last week, I don't think they should have much trouble going up against Connor Shaw. This will the first career start for the rookie, and he will have to make it in M&T Bank Stadium, which has been known as one of the toughest venues to play in. With that being said, the defense should he successful, and the Ravens should be able to pull out a victory here in the season finale. Prediction:
Ravens 24, Browns 10
Chuck Mills: Joe Flacco hits Steve Smith and Crockett Gillmore for touchdowns and Justin Forsett adds one on the ground. C.J. Mosley and Will Hill each intercept Connor Shaw, while Timmy Jernigan, Brandon Williams, Pernell McPhee, and Elvis Dumervil terrorize him all day. Prediction: Ravens 27, Browns 10
Daniel Park: Dear Connor, please stay in the pocket. Only if your first career start was at home. Best wishes. Prediction: Ravens 23, Browns 18
Jason Butt: What happened last week doesn't happen this week. The Ravens defense continues to play well against lesser-talented offenses and get a team featuring Connor Shaw with no Josh Gordon. Look for the Ravens to actually get going on offense this week and score a win. The Ravens will be focused in this game knowing their playoff fate depends on a win. However, the more important game for the Ravens is taking place in Kansas City. Prediction: Ravens 24, Browns 3
