Ravens at Browns marquee matchup looms in Week 9
Ravens running back Ray Rice leads a Baltimore attack as Cleveland linebackers David Bowens and Kaluka Maiava brace for his swift inside and outside runs. Bowens, 32, must anchor defensive calls while Maiava, a rookie, eyes breakout plays on Monday Night Football. Rice sits at 5-foot-8 and 573 rushing yards, 1,009 scrimmage yards, a threat for a big play that could swing the game. Rob Ryan calls Rice a stick of dynamite and the Browns seek a rare scoring breakout to slow him.
