The Browns will make the playoff. With 11 weeks into the season they are 6-4 and are 4-1 in the last 5 games. Also they are only one game back behind the Steelers in the AFC North. If they dont pass the Steelers for the the division they still will win a AFC Wild Card spot. The Browns have shown they can win late in the game or come from behind to win. Derek Anderson has really steped up and has shown that he can play quarterback in the NFL and take the Browns to the playoffs. Right now the Browns are tied for the last Wild Card spot with the Titans in the AFC conference. The Browns have an easy schedule for the rest of the year. They will face the Texans, Cardinals, Jets, Bills, Bengals, and 49ers. The Browns will make the playoffs as a Wild Card or the AFC North champions.


First of all the Browns will not win teh AFC northwest because the Steelers are just two strong of a team.. Even though they lost to the Jets, that does not mean anything. The Jaguars will be one of the wild card teams with the other one being any of the following: Titans, Broncos or Chargers (depending on which one wins the division). The Browns have 4 of their next 6 oppnents from their own conference where they have gone 4-4. I think they will lose three of those games: Bills, Bengals and Texans (possibly). They will also lose to the Cardinals from Arizona who are 2-1 in out of conference games. The Browns will finish the season with a record of 9-7 which will not be good enough for the playoffs.

The Tians will be in the playoffs because personally I think that their schedule is better: They play the following teams: Colts (look below), Texans, Jets, Bengals, San Diego and the Chiefs.

Even though they play the colts and the chargers they will still win the other four games bringing their record to 10-6 giving them that final wild card spot behind the jacksonville jaguars.

The playoff teams will be:

Patriots
Chargers
Steelers
Colts
Jaguars
Titans


First of all the Browns will beat the Texans and the Cardinals. The Browns will have homefield advantage against the Texans and the Browns are 4-1 at home while the Texans are 2-3 on the road. The Browns will also beat the Cardinals. The Browns 2-0 verus non conference teams and the Cardinals also play in the weakest division in the NFL. I think the Titans shedule is tougher and they willl lose to the Colts, Chargers, and maybe the Chiefs or Bengals. With the Browns winning at least 4 of the last 6 games they will get into the playoffs as a wild card. The Browns will finish 10-6 ahead of the Titans who will finish 9-7 keeping them out of the playoffs. The Browns are playing great right now while the Titans have to rebuild after losing 2 tuff games in a row. Also the Titans stay in the AFC to play the rest of there games which they are 3-3 in conference. The Browns will make the playoffs.


The titans will not lose to the chiefs or bengals (look at their records), the titans are not the only team that could make the Wild card - The chargers will make it if they do not win their division and the buffalo bills might make it because they will only lose two of their next six games (to the Giants and to the Jaguars). The broncos are also in contention - their schedule is as follows: Chicago, Oakland, Eagles, Chargers (loss), Texans, adn Vikings

The only loss that I see in that is to the Chargers. That would put the Broncos at 10-6 and give them a woldcard berth. So it will either be the Titans or the Broncos who make the wilcard - possibly the Buffalo Bills.


I said the Titans might lose to the Bengals or Chiefs. Look the Colts almost lost to the Chiefs. And the Titans have to come off 2 tuff loses. The Broncos are 5-5 right now. And they are 0-2 against non conference. And are 3-3 at home and 2-2 playing on the road. They are tied for the top spot in the AFC West with the Chargers. The Chargers will win that division giving the Broncos only a chance for a wild card spot that they will not get. The Browns will get a wild card spot and make it to the playoffs. The Browns will make the playoffs.

Nevermind, this is harder to argue than I thought it would be. I was going to say Tennessee over them, but I think you would win no matter how good my argument was. Also, they have to beat the Steelers by two games for the rest of the year, because the Steelers hold the tiebreaker.

Who cares bout the browns making the Playoffs? They won't do anything in the post-season playing with the worst defense in the league. And most likely they will play the Colts or Steelers in the wild-card game which i think they would loose to either team.
