Last Week For Playoff Hopes?
-
Just wondering if this is the last week for delusional optimists (like myself) to believe we could make the playoffs even if we win out.
Seems like the Wildcard will be locked up by 10+ win teams...

Well, sure. Even if the Browns could win out the best they would be is 9-7. The Pats already have 10 wins, Jets have 9 with a win over the Browns, which gives them the tiebreaker. Steelers already have 9 wins. Browns would have to win out and Steelers lose out just to tie. Essentially the same is true with the Ravens who have already beaten the Browns.
So, yea, one more win by any of them or one more loss by the Browns would essentially eliminate them. That is no surprise.

Will be nice to play spoiler for either Steelers or Ravens at least.

The Browns beating either of both of them would probably not keep them out of the playoffs, unless they also lose to just about everyone else on their schedule and someone like the 6-6 teams win out, like the Dolphins, Colts, Raiders, or Chargers.
