I really hate the Ravens, so when the Browns tied the game I started day-dreaming about beating the convicts that litter their roster.  That ended quickly when Kyle Boller hit Demetrius Williams (of all people) for a 77-yard TD pass!

Derek Anderson played pretty well again as he completed 23 of 32 passes for 223 yards with 2 TDs and 2 INTs.  Jason Wright carried the ball 8 times for 37 yards (4.6 ypc) and Reuben Droughns carried the ball 8 times for 31 yards (3.9 ypc).  Braylon Edwards had a decent game with 5 catches for 68 yards and a TD.  Kellen Winslow also had a pretty good game with 5 grabs for 61 yards.  Joe Jurevicius continued to show off his good hands with 5 catches for 46 yards and a TD.

The defense was led by rookie Leon Williams who was all over the field and wound up with 12 tackles.  Sean Jones had 9 tackles, but he got beat on some costly passes.  Chaun Thompson stepped in when Andra Davis got hurt and made 6 tackles and had a sack.  The Browns had alot of trouble with the Ravens offense.  The Ravens ran the ball 35 times for 142 yards (4.1 ypc).  The Ravens completed 13 of 25 passes for 231 net yards passing.

The Browns put up a good fight but fell to 4-10 on the season with this loss.
