After a brutal collapse against the Bills in Week 1, the Ravens will play the Browns in Week 2. It should be an easier matchup for the Ravens as they are two-score home favorites.
Baltimore is an 11.5-point favorite and -800 on the moneyline, while Cleveland is +550 on DraftKings Sportsbook. The game total is set at 45.5 points.
Here are my three favorite player props for this Week 2 NFL game between the Ravens and Browns.
Ravens vs. Browns Best Prop Bets
Lamar Jackson anytime touchdown (+180)
Lamar Jackson had a solid performance in Week 1 against the Bills, but the team fell short, losing 41-40. He threw for two touchdowns and ran in another.
While Week 2 may not have as many fireworks, Jackson should play just as well, if not better, against the Browns. He’s an incredible player on his own, but it helps that he has so many weapons around him. Zay Flowers and Derrick Henry take some pressure off of the two-time MVP, allowing him to scramble for yards himself.
Jackson had a 10-yard rushing touchdown in Week 1 against the Bills. That can certainly happen again in Week 2 against the Browns. At +180 odds, it’s great value.
Joe Flacco over 239.5 passing yards (-113)
Josh Allen carved up the Ravens’ defense in Week 1, but that’s more attributed to Allen’s ability rather than Baltimore’s defensive inability. Another 40-point outing is unlikely, but the Browns will be passing the ball at a high rate.
Joe Flacco is still Cleveland’s starter and is coming off a 290-yard performance against the Bengals. Cincinnati’s defense is porous, but it didn’t break. The Bengals won 17-16 despite allowing 290 yards in the air from Flacco.
A similar outcome should occur in Week 2. Flacco will throw for a ton of yards, but the Browns won’t score an exuberant amount of points. Even if Cleveland puts up 25-plus points, it’ll likely be in garbage time when the Ravens are leading by at least two scores.
This 11.5-point spread indicates a potential blowout, which will also be a reason why Flacco will throw the ball more. If the Browns are trailing, they’ll need quick points in order to attempt a comeback.
Derrick Henry over 20.5 yards: longest rush (-115)
While Jackson’s anytime touchdown is also a feature prop bet, Henry will still lead the run game. He’s still one of the best running backs in the NFL. He rushed for 169 yards and two touchdowns on 18 carries in Week 1.
Henry’s longest rush was 49 yards, which is hard to replicate, but he’s more than capable of surpassing 20.5 yards. He’s one of the toughest players to tackle, and can stiff arm his way to extra yardage.
Henry has 50-plus-yard rushes in eight straight seasons. The only seasons he doesn’t have a mark this high is his rookie year and 2025, which is just one week in. Surpassing 20.5 yards is an easy feat for him.
