Browns at Ravens Week 2 TV schedule, radio, live stream and predictions as Cleveland tries to win its first game of the season.

The Cleveland Browns travel to Baltimore to play the Ravens in Week 2, with DeShone Kizer looking for his first NFL win. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m.

Luckily for the state of Ohio except for one blip of the northwest part of the state, the game will be broadcast over the air, meaning no need for Direct TV Sunday NFL Ticket.

Browns fans in bordering states will also benefit from the Bengals playing on national TV Thursday night. Cleveland’s Week 2 contest will be aired in markets usually reserved for the Bengals on Sunday, including Cincinnati, Dayton, and Northern Kentucky.

The game will be broadcast on CBS where Andrew Catalon, James Lofton and Steve Tasker will have the call.

As always, the Browns can be listened to on the Browns Radio Network by veteran radio voices Jim Donovan and Doug Dieken. Nathan Zegura will handle sideline reporting.

If you’re out of market, your best best to watch the game is Sunday Ticket.

These are the other NFL games airing in Cleveland today.

  • Sunday – 1:00 PM ET: Minnesota Vikings vs. Pittsburgh Steelers (FOX)
  • Sunday – 4:25 PM ET: Dallas Cowboys vs. Denver Broncos (FOX)
  • Sunday – 8:30 PM ET: Green Bay Packers vs. Atlanta Falcons (NBC)
  • Monday – 8:30 PM ET: Detroit Lions vs. New York Giants (ESPN)

Game Nuggets:

1 oe Flacco winning percentage as a starting quarterback is right around .500 since winning the Super Bowl three seasons ago. Unfortunately, he’s about as good as Ben Roethlisberger when it comes to beating the Browns, as he owns lifetime 15-2 lifetime record when paying against orange helmets.

2. As we wait for Myles Garrett to make his debut (high ankle sprain), the Browns have to come up with a pass rush to force Flacco to get rid of the ball. The longer he holds onto it, the more likely it is he’ll carve up the Browns defense.

3. Three players to watch on defense: Jamar Taylor: He got torched against Antonio Brown. He’s better suited for the slot, bur the Browns are going to play him on the outside. Can he make any difference today?

Joe Schobert: He’s been a pleasant surprise as middle linebacker, but can he keep trending up?

Emmanuel Ogbah: The Browns need a pass rush, can Ogbah give it to them? He was hardly noticeable in Week 1.

4. Three players to watch on offense: DeShone Kizer: For a week, the city of Cleveland’s believed it’s had a franchise quarterback. Can Kizer keep it up? It’s only his second start, but can he cut down a couple of mistakes and avoid taking hits? If he can hit on one or two big plays, the Browns may have a shot to steal one.

Isaiah Crowell: The running game was non-existent against the Steelers. The offensive line took blame. Hue Jackson was blamed for not feeding The Crow enough. Even Crowell got criticized for not running through the right holes. No excuses now. This is supposed to be his breakout year. Show up and show out.

Kenny Britt: Can he really be as bad as we think he all is? No. But answering questions with his back pointed into his locker and away from the media is a bad look. Come on Kenny, just throw some cliches their way and move on. By acting like a 4-year-old, you’ve put even more of a target on your back. Another lousy game probably sends the high priced free-agent signing to the bench.

Prediction: Kizer takes a steps on his development and hits on a couple big plays. The Browns’ newfound defensive identity stumps Flacco, and Cleveland edges out the Ravens for 14-13 win.
