If the Browns end up with the best wildcard record, their 1st round opponent would be the winner of the AFC South. That's pretty fricken cool!
Before I invest in that fully, the Browns HAVE to beat the Jets.

I believe a W is all they need to clinch #5, with a win wee play for nothing in bengals week unless Miami upsets Baltimore

Hurts to think of what this team could have been if there was even reasonable health.
The AFC would have run through CLE and you'd likely have locked up a #1 seed with home field.

Yeah and maybe a better approach to personnel? Anyway here's the latest playoff clickbait

I think the dolphins/ravens will be quite a good game, better than the 9ers disaster.
But I do think the ravens win that one, if not then the Steelers always screw with the ravens so that scenario is possible.
Either way I have basically 0 confidence in the things falling in our favor to win the AFCN. Would love it, but I just can’t see the ravens losing out at this point. I just would want them to lose to the dolphins so they have to play starters in week 18

Inform us before we travel to Natty ?
Here are the three paths for Cleveland in the last two weeks:
Top Seed, Bye Week
- The Baltimore Ravens lose to the Miami Dolphins this week, Pittsburgh Steelers next week
- The Miami Dolphins beat the Ravens this week, lose to the Buffalo Bills next week
- The Browns beat the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 18
2nd Seed, Host a Wild Card Game
- The Baltimore Ravens lose to the Miami Dolphins this week, Pittsburgh Steelers next week (Stays the same)
- The Miami Dolphins beat the Ravens this week and the Buffalo Bills next week (Changed)
- The Browns beat the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 18 (Stays the same)
5th Seed, Travel for Wild Card Game
- Every other scenario including a Cleveland loss in Week 18
Realistic expectations are that the Browns will be traveling to play the 4th seed (the worst division champion) in the Wild Card round but
there are realistic paths to there being a playoff home game in Cleveland this season.

As fun as a story it has been, I'd rather a healthy starting lineup than a 38 year old Flacco.
....I currently don't want to change a thing. Just get some of the guys back for the playoff game.
I like a QB like Flacco. A tall drink of water with a big arm. A great Play Action Play Faker. He drops back into the pocket and wants nothing more than to stay there and deliver the ball to a receiver. This is just what a pass protecting offensive lineman would like. They know where Flacco will be. And Flacco is mobile enough to get out of a collapsing pocket...and while running with the ball, is looking to throw it and NOT have to run. On top of all of that, he takes the top off of the defense. He'll throw the thing long. If he looks around and nobody's open, he's not beyond throwing it out past the longest route and see if the receiver makes a great play or a flag gets thrown. He's 38 years football smart old, too.

The Browns seem to have the knack for getting your hopes up and pulling the rug from underneath you.
I'm not going to let that happen to me this time. I just look at the situation for what it is, a banged up Browns squad with a 38 year old qb that are winning games, eventually they will run out of gas.
I'm already happy (thrilled) with how the season turned out so far. I think the culture has finally changed, the Browns have themselves an identity. That's the most important thing. ANYTHING good that happens from this point on is a bonus. I'm hoping they don't run out of gas until they are the only ones left standing. But I'm not going to set myself up for letdown.

Oh the first time the Browns take a lead in their first playoff game I can see you now. ??

Well, for all the bitching about a late season TNF game, it really came at a great time to have a mini-bye to (hopefully) get some of the wounded back in the game with the extra days off.
For the Bengals, Cooper should be available. He even tried running routes before the Jets game, and felt he wasn't 100%. Let's hope Moore's concussion isn't too serious- I read that he had a seizure from that faceplant, and spent the night in the hospital . Stef says he's home and doing ok. Walker might need to wait until the playoffs after that 'scope on his knee. Hopefully same goes for Delpit after that groin injury. Still waiting for the elusive Thornhill to finally get healthy too.
Sounds like Bojorquez may be healthy enough to play against the Bengals, BTW, besides punting he's also the holder on field goal tries. Which brings us to Dustin Hopkins- who's way more iffy for the Bengals game (the hamstring pull is on his plant leg, not kicking leg)... If not, at least Riley Patterson looks average in the mean time.
