If they beat the bucs but lose to browns and chargers they would finish 8-8 to the browns 8-7-1. Hell the Ravens could tie the chargers as long as Browns beat them they have identical records and Browns have the head to head 2-0. In order of realistic possibility Ravens finish 1-1-1 or worse (I put it at 70%) Browns win out (45% those odds go Way up if they keep Baker upright this weekend in mile high and walk away with the win.) Steelers lose out (10% i have close to zero faith in Bengals) The Bengals have been a menace to the Steelers in the past, but they are the weak link, and of course we have to win Sunday, which we will.

To be mathematically alive for the postseason with three games to play is a vast improvement. LOL, in case you're interested, the Browns would currently draft #13. Not really worried about where we draft. We will be fine. It is exciting to actually be alive in December Larry. My God it has been a long time.

Zombo Posted December 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 I think if Titans and Colts both win we are essentially eliminated from the wild card, because they play each other (unless they were to tie and we won tiebreakers). Colts spanking Cowboys, are the Giants gonna show some life against Tits? Zombo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Oven Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 The two teams that beat the Browns - and man those games are even more frustrating now - Tampa Bay and Oakland, aren't helping us again now.

CLEVELANDwantsPLAYOFFS Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 We would potentially have our season come down to Hue Jackson and the Bengals needing to beat Pitt week 17...

But as Z said, the Titans and Colts both winning shuts the door on a wild card, they play each other the last game of the season. 6 minutes ago, Nero said: We could be out of contention if the Steelers win this very night, wouldn't we? Squealers up 14-7 Adding to the previous post Ravens have to lose out. But the Browns have something to shoot for- win out, winning record, a damsite better than 0-16. And mighty likely they will knock the Ratbirds out of the playoffs with a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, we do own the tiebreaker over the Colts. I can’t even count apparently. So we need the Tits to lose, then the Colts/Tits tie. Steelers losing out would be more likely ha.

bjh2130 Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 Disregard I guess the Steelers would hold the three team tiebreaker as well. As soon as the Ravens are eliminated from the 3 team tie-break it goes to Step 1 of A two-team tie-break which is head-to-head record in the Steelers hold that over the Browns. I was just thinking for our best chance at a playoff scenario obviously we need to Steelers to lose this week and next week but a big help would be for the Ravens to tie the Chargers. Then in week 17 we would control our own destiny. Obviously in this scenario we would have to beat the Bengals as well but going into the last week if the Steelers lose tonight and next weekend and the Chargers tie the Ravens the Browns record would be 7-7-1 Steelers would be 7-7-1 and Ravens would be 8-6-1. If Browns beat the Ravens they both have the same record and the Browns would hold the tiebreak. If the Browns win and the Steelers win all three teams have the same record and you would have to go to conference record to break the tie between the Steelers and the Browns but the Browns would hold it. The Ravens would be out in the second tiebreaker of divisional record. So even if the Steelers do pull this out tonight we are not theoretically out of it because if the Ravens were to tie the Chargers the Steelers could still lose in week 17 which would give us the tie-break over both due to divisional record. Pretty much root for the impossible and root for a tie next week between the Chargers and Ravens for the best chance of the Browns going to the playoffs where they control their own destiny week 17 (and Browns wins of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Browns Steelers and Ravens all end up 8-7-1 with the Steelers winning today means they lose to the Bengals. The first tiebreak is record among games between the three teams tied. Ravens 1-3 browns 2-1-1 Steelers 2-1-1 (ravens eliminated) next tiebreak is divisional records Browns would be 4-1-1 Steelers would be 3-2-1 (with losses to ravens earlier and Bengals week 17) giving the browns the tiebreak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
