Lamar Jackson overcame cramps and the Browns' defense to lead the visiting Ravens to a 47-42 win over the Browns on "Monday Night Football." Jackson, who temporarily left the game in the fourth quarter, engineered two late scoring drives after coming back into the game. His 44-yard touchdown pass to Marquise Brown temporarily gave the Ravens the lead. His four completions on Baltimore's last drive set up Justin Tucker's game-winning 55-yard field goal with two seconds left. 

With the win, Baltimore swept the season series against Cleveland while improving to 8-5 on the season. The Ravens stay alive in the AFC playoff picture, while the Browns (9-4) failed to gain ground on the 11-2 Steelers for first place in the AFC North. 

Both teams scored touchdowns on their opening drives. Nick Chubb capped off the Browns' 81-yard drive with a seven-yard touchdown run. Lamar Jackson's five-yard touchdown run six minutes later finished off Baltimore's 73-yard drive. Midway through the second quarter, Gus Edwards' 11-yard touchdown run gave the Ravens their first lead. Baltimore's lead didn't last long, however, as the Browns tied the score on Chubb's 14-yard touchdown on Cleveland's ensuing offensive possession. 

Jackson's 44-yard run set up Edwards' 19-yard touchdown run less than three minutes into the third quarter. And after Kareem Hunt's five-yard touchdown run temporarily trimmed the Ravens' lead to eight points, Tyus Bowser's interception of Mayfield set up J.K. Dobbins one-yard score, as Baltimore took a 34-20 lead into the fourth quarter. 

Cleveland rallied in the fourth quarter. They made it a six-point game on Mayfield's 21-yard touchdown pass to Rashard Higgins on a fourth down play less than two minutes into the quarter. The Browns then took the lead on their next possession, with Mayfield keeping it himself for a five-yard score. 

Jackson, who missed nearly full two series with cramps, threw his touchdown pass to Brown on his first play back into the game on fourth down. Jackson's brilliance was quickly matched by Mayfield, who tied the score with a 22-yard throw to Hunt with 1:04 left. The Browns ultimately left too much time for Jackson, whose four completions for 38 yards set up Tucker's game-winning field goal.
