As it stands right now, the Jaguars would edge out the Browns for the final playoff spot based on the conference record tiebreak.<BR/><BR/>Working in the Browns favor:<BR/><BR/>There are lots of winnable games remaining. The tougher part of their schedule is past, and the Steelers game is the only game remaining against a team that is decidedly better than them.<BR/><BR/>I'm trying to muster the courage to believe that the Browns can win this game, but the defense is going to have to play much better, or Ben Roethlisberger is going to drop five TD passes on them the way he did against the Ravens.<BR/><BR/>Knowing that the Browns possess a minimal chance of actually winning this game, I am just hoping that A) it's not a soul-crushing 40-point blowout and B) it's not a soul-crushing loss on the last play of the game.<BR/><BR/>A quasi-competitive 31-21 defeat, I can live with. Something similar to what happened against New England.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
