Even ESPN Is Trying To Warn You About Tonight's Dreadful Ravens-Browns Game

Tonight, the Ravens and Browns will play what will most likely be the least appealing Monday night game of the season. Look at the schedule. Vikings-49ers was horrid, but at least we had Jim Tomsula reaction shots to entertain us. This game will have nothing....
