Good News, Browns: Your Chances Of Making The Playoffs Are 1 In 19 Quintillion

The 19,649,922,085,696,900,000-1 dream is alive in Cleveland.

For a brief moment there on Sunday, the Cleveland Browns’ 2017 season appeared to be lost. The team was defeated by the Jacksonville Jaguars, moving its record to 0-10. Considering that no team has ever made the NFL playoffs with 10 losses, the result seemed to dash any remaining hope in Cleveland that the Browns would make a run.

Or did it?

It turns out, thanks to the assiduous investigations of a Redditor who goes by MrMolonLabe, the Browns are still in this thing: Provided that 46 different games go their way — including two ties — a hypothetical 6-10 Cleveland Browns can be the second AFC wild card team.

All on board the Rosen train.

I'm guessing this eliminates the Browns from playoff contention?

All I want for Christmas is a new head coach, preferably one who comes from a team that, you know, has a good offense, like the Saints or Eagles.

The Browns don't have anywhere near the personnel to run those systems. Get a new Front Office first and stack this roster with the 23094820984029384209 draft picks they have and then worry about the HC...

Cincy didn’t even try this game, and still won easily. This is 0-16 unless Trubisky plays worse worse than he even played today

Update:

4-44 since starting the 2014 season 7-4.

A new coach and new front office is definitely in order, but please get someone with experience. Enough with the coordinator of the year club at coach and the analytics front office shit.

They have completely gone backwards under Jackson (as insane as that possibly is). They need someone who knows how to run a locker room and a team with all the youth they have. Jackson may have been a great coordinator and sometimes that is all some of these guys are. He has shown little in the way of actually being a comptent head coach.

Browns have started 0-11 in consecutive seasons. Only one other NFL has done it - the expansion Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who lost the first 26 games of their existence.

Wow.

Maybe new ownership too. It's too bad you can't just fire the owner.

Tell me about it.

That is because he is too busy looking at his 25,000 page play sheet while the defense is on the field or some other type of decision might need to be made such as a challenge. Please let him go back to Cincinnati and maybe we can get another draft pick.
Speaking of draft picks, the Browns biggest problem(besides not having a QB) is that they have all these draft picks so that they keep getting younger and younger which is not good.
