BALTIMORE (AP) — The Baltimore Ravens flipped the script and put

one heck of an ending on a regular season that featured countless surprises and plot twists.Getting two rushing touchdowns from rookie quarterback Lamar Jackson and a late defensive stand https://www.brownsfanshop.com/Rashard-Higgins-Jersey , Baltimore squeezed past the Cleveland Browns 26-24 Sunday to reach the playoffs as AFC North champions.Kenneth Dixon accounted for 117 of Baltimore’s season-high 296 yards on the ground, Jackson had 90 and the rejuvenated Ravens (10-6) broke a three-year playoff drought with their sixth win in seven games. Baltimore will open the postseason Sunday afternoon at home against the Los Angeles Chargers.Article continues below ...“It feels good, a home playoff game,” cornerback Marlon Humphrey said. “Somehow it happened.”A year ago, Baltimore missed the playoffs by losing its finale at home to the Bengals, who rallied with a last-minute touchdown.Remembering that disappointment, most of the announced crowd of 70,925 was on its feet as the Browns moved closer to field-goal range with the clock winding down. A 19-yard completion from Baker Mayfield to former Ravens top draft pick Breshad Perriman and a 16-yarder to Jarvis Landry pushed the ball to the Baltimore 39 with 1:20 left.Following three straight incompletions, the Ravens blitzed Mayfield on fourth down and linebacker C.J. Mosley picked off a pass to clinch it. Baltimore finished a half-game ahead of the Pittsburgh Steelers, who beat Cincinnati 16-13.“There were some nerves,” tight end Hayden Hurst said. “I felt confidence that at some point one of those guys would make a big play and sure enough, C.J. did.”After killing off the final seconds, the Ravens danced into their locker room Joe Thomas Jersey , donned caps proclaiming them AFC North champs, and mugged for selfies and shots of each other.“If you want to write a book about this season, probably no one would believe it,” coach John Harbaugh said.It’s been quite a turnaround for the Ravens, who were 4-5 before Jackson took over for injured Joe Flacco, the team’s starting quarterback since 2008. Flacco was behind center in 2012, when Baltimore captured its last division crown and ultimately won the Super Bowl.The Jackson-led running attack was too much for Cleveland (7-8-1), which was denied its first winning season since 2007. After trailing 20-7 at halftime and 26-17 with 7:20 left, the Browns could not recover against the franchise that left Cleveland after the 1995 season.Mayfield threw three touchdown passes — including a 48-yarder to Landry — to finish with 27, an NFL record for a rookie.“I’ll make sure I say something about it on the plane ride home,” interim coach Gregg Williams said. “Everybody needs a pat on the back, even where you’re as competitive as that young man. And he is competitive.”Although Mayfield pierced the NFL’s top-ranked defense for 376 yards, he was intercepted three times.“Obviously Chris Hubbard Color Rush Jersey , very disappointed for us to not get the win, but it’s a great team. It’s a playoff team,” Mayfield said. “We want to be in their spot this time next year.”Jackson gave Baltimore a 17-7 lead with touchdown runs of 25 yards and 8 yards , his first multi-score game in the NFL. Late in the first half, however, the former Louisville star lost a fumble when trying to reach over the goal line.Jackson ran 20 times overall. As a passer, he went 14 of 24 for 179 yards.“It’s exciting to watch him play. He’s a leader now,” said Ravens rookie Gus Edwards, who chipped in with 76 yards rushing.READY TO GOAlthough he had already connected on four field goals, Justin Tucker was mentally preparing himself for a very long, hurried fifth attempt as he watched the Browns scramble downfield on their final drive.“I was just doing the math in my own head anticipating that we were going to have to rebut with our own effort to put the game away and come out as AFC North champs,” he said.MILESTONESLB Terrell Suggs set a Ravens record for games played with 229, breaking a tie with Ray Lewis.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Greg Robinson resurrected his career and resolved a major problem for the Browns last season.He’ll try for an encore.Robinson, a former high draft pick whose days in the NFL once seemed about over, re-signed with Cleveland on Monday for next season.The No. 2 overall selection in 2014, Robinson played all 16 games for Cleveland in 2018 starting the final eight. He solidified an important position following the retirement of 10-time Pro Bowler Joe Thomas and the team’s experiment with guard Joel Bitonio during training camp and rookie Desmond Harrison at left tackle in the season’s first half.Robinson was eligible to become an unrestricted free agent in March, but he’s decided to stay with the Browns for another season.The 26-year-old began the season behind Harrison, but was moved into the starting lineup when coach Hue Jackson was fired and replaced by Gregg Williams. With Robinson protecting quarterback Baker Mayfield’s blind side, the Browns allowed a league-low five sacks in the second half of the season after giving up 33 in the first eight games.Robinson’s security on the left side enabled Mayfield to set the league rookie record with 27 touchdown passes, and he opened holes for running back Nick Chubb, who set a club rookie mark with 996 yards rushing.Cleveland finished 7-8-1 after losing all 16 games in 2017.The Browns’ decision to re-sign Robinson will likely affect their plans in free agency and the draft. Cleveland has bigger needs on the defensive line, at linebacker and wide receiver.Robinson was drafted by the Los Angeles Rams in 2014 but underperformed and was traded to Detroit in 2017. He didn’t live up to expectations with the Lions either and was released before the Browns signed him in June.The Browns also waived wide receiver Daniel Williams. He spent the final four weeks of last season on the club’s practice squad.
