The Browns led the Baltimore Ravens 7-6 at halftime Thursday night in a prime-time AFC North matchup televised nationally on NFL Network.
On third-and-4 from Cleveland's 37, Browns linebacker Jamie Collins blitzed and sacked quarterback Joe Flacco for a 9-yard loss. The play knocked the Ravens out of field goal range and forced them to punt with 7:07 left in the first quarter. Collins also had a tackle for loss during the Ravens' first possession, which ended when cornerback Joe Haden broke up a deep pass from Flacco to wide receiver Kamar Aiken on third-and-6 from Baltimore's 31.
