The Browns were the most bet on team to win the Super Bowl in 2019. They opened the year at 10-1 odds and they just straight out did not play to their maximum potential. Star receiver, Odell Beckham Jr. had his worst season yet, and second year quarterback, Baker Mayfield was primed for a breakout year but had a disgusting 22:21 touchdown to interception ratio. They finished the season on a horrible note, losing their last three games to finish 6-10. The Browns are looking to get back on track this season in a very competitive division and reach the playoffs for the first time in 17 years. Below is my regular season prediction for the Cleveland Browns.
Week 1: @ Baltimore Ravens - loss Week 2: vs. Cincinnati Bengals - win Week 3: vs. Washington Redskins - win Week 4: @ Dallas Cowboys - loss Week 5: vs. Indianapolis Colts - win Week 6: @ Pittsburgh Steelers - loss Week 7: @ Cincinnati Bengals - loss Week 8: vs. Las Vegas Raiders - win Week 9: Bye Week Week 10: vs. Houston Texans - loss Week 11: vs. Philadelphia Eagles - win Week 12: @ Jacksonville Jaguars - win
Week 13: @ Tennessee Titans - loss
Week 14: vs. Baltimore Ravens - win
Week 15: @ New York Giants - win
Week 16: @ New York Jets - win
Week 17: vs. Pittsburgh Steelers - win
The Browns go on a huge four game win streak to conclude the regular season and possibly lift themselves into the playoff picture. It will be interesting to see how the rest of the AFC turns out. One of the most exciting games for the Browns is in week 11 against the Eagles. After starting off the season 4-5, this is a must win. I think Baker Mayfield delivers what we've all been waiting for in this game. The Browns edge the Eagles at home in a relatively high scoring game to bring them back to .500. Week 13 is an another amazing matchup for the Browns. After crushing the Jaguars in week 12, the Browns are rolling at 6-5. I Simply think Derrick Henry will be a little too much for the Browns defense to handle thus resulting in a Titans win in a very close game. The Browns however, will go on to upset the Ravens the following week and win the three after that as well. Week 15 should be a fun one when OBJ returns to New York. I think Odell will have 100+ receiving yards and a touchdown in this one.
*At the end of this series, once I have gone through every team, I will give my playoff predictions as well as season awards.*
