Clear path is Browns win out going 9-7, Steelers lose 2 of 3 to Bills, Jets and Ravens, Titans lose to Saints and Texans twice. We could still make it in if Titans are 9-7 but that requires the Colts to also finish 9-7. FYI. Colts play Saints, Panthers and Jags.

We would need the Steelers, TItans, Colts, Raiders, and of course our Browns to finish 9-7 to make the playoffs. If the Titans finish higher then the Colts (i.e. TItans finish 9-7 Colts finish 8-8) then the Titans will get in.

"Very much" is a bit of stretch don't you think?

TJ Watt has been wreaking havoc this year. Has sacks in 6 straight games and already this year has a career high in QB Hits. I would expect him to keep that streak alive.

Best: Butch Mangini Crenell Worst: Hue and Freddie, are on a whole different level of ineptitude.

Well a glaring difference is Noll, Rooney and everyone in Pittsburgh knew that the ‘68 team had absolutely no talent. Only 5 players on the ‘68 team were still in Pittsburgh on the 74 championship team. In Cleveland, we think we have a damn good roster, certainly talented enough to win the AFC North, and still put on a pathetic display of ineptitude every Sunday. Not really apples to apples.

Agree, up 28-25 in the fourth, NEED a stop and the defense can’t get one. A good running game slices through our “vaunted” Dline like a hot knife through butter.
