John Harbaugh did his best coaching before the Baltimore Ravens even took the field against the Cleveland Browns.

Somehow, Harbaugh convinced his players that the winless Browns could actually pull off an upset. He stressed the importance of treating this game as if it was tossup, and insisted that a complete performance was necessary for Baltimore to remain unbeaten.

Taking that notion to heart, the Ravens gained control from the outset Sunday and cruised to a 34-3 victory.
