I think it was dead since the Titan's game. We were shellshocked after that beating and unable to recover ever since. The first rat game was an outlier. We've not played a complete game or sustained continuity and confidence the entire season. Who on our team or what aspect of our game has actually improved since week 1?

But this company presents a unique bedfellow, stranger than most.

Ravens lock up top seed in AFC. Bengals lock up #1 overall Draft Pick. A less talented Steelers team will finish next wee at or over 500. Browns, while 3rd in the division will still have sub 500 season with nothing but questions to show for all the efforts and much less draft capital than recent years.


Your feelings and opinions do not add up to facts.

The playoffs should be interesting. To me there’s no clear cut favorite in either league, despite Baltimore’s record and streak


"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

Anyone else find it sad these are more than likely to happen than the browns finishing 8-8

Yep, we can collectively come together in the spirit of the season and root for the Ravens to get ousted from the playoffs as quickly as possible.

Sounds great. Unfortunately, I think they will hang around for a while.

Depends how you look at it. Baltimore is a clear cut favorite in the sense that they have easily the best chance of any team to make it to and win the Super Bowl. That said, I'd still take the field over them to win the Super Bowl, and probably take the AFC field over them to make it to the Super Bowl, though that's close.

Having that one seed is really nice. Two home wins and you're in the Super Bowl, and that first win, in the divisional round, isn't always the toughest game. Figure that will be a (possibly beat up) Bills, Texans, Titans, or Steelers.

Meanwhile, there's a good chance it'll be Pats vs Chiefs in the other divisional matchup. Tough game. The Ravens will only have to play one of them, not both.

Upsets happen obviously and can change some of the above.

Defense and a run game will ALWAYS travel well, and typically play well in playoff games. I have SF and Balt in the big game this year.

In a league where passing is encouraged, you will see two defensive minded run teams in the game.

The KC team intrigues me too ... their defense has played better of late and they seem to be more balanced on offense too. I think most of us would say it’s a 3 team race in the AFC to get to the Super Bowl
