Browns-Ravens Line Jumps 4 Points: Justin Gordon Suspended, Connor Shaw Starts
The Browns-Ravens line had moved a whole four points favoring a big win by Baltimore, though none of this might matter should San Diego beat KC and make their way into the Playoffs.
Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon was suspended Saturday for an unspecified violation of team rules. He had already missed the first 10 games of this season due to suspension.
Gordon is the first player to lead the NFL in receiving and fail to score a touchdown in the following season since Raymond Berry in 1961. Gordon led the NFL with 1,646 yards receiving last season despite being suspended for the first two games.
The big line move can be attributed to a Christmas Day announcement that Connor Shaw would be starting in place of injured Browns QB Johnny Manziel.
