Cleveland Browns vs. Baltimore Ravens: Monday Night Football start time, TV channel, odds

The battle for the bottom of the AFC North takes the Monday Night stage

Evan Habeeb-USA TODAY Sports

As we wrap up week 12 tonight, the Baltimore Ravens (3-7) will visit the Cleveland Browns (2-8) with a lot on the line.

Granted, it is -- potentially -- the number 1 overall pick on the line, but one team in this game has made its hay through the draft, and the other is desperately in need of even incompetent drafting. So having the No. 1 pick with a "Can't Miss" prospect like Joey Bosa on the board is a big deal.

The Ravens come in after a costly week 11 that saw them win the game, but lose Joe Flacco for the season to a torn ACL. Starting in Flacco's place will be former Texans QB, and alum of the 2004 draft class, Matt Schaub.

The Browns are possibly at their most confused and desperate as Josh McCown returns to the starting lineup after Johnny Manziel managed to screw up being given the starting job for the remainder of the season.

Use this as your open thread for the evening.
