| Outlaw | Schedule Crunchers : Cleveland Browns SCHEDULE CRUNCHERS Cleveland Browns AFC North Next stop for Schedule Crunchers is Cleveland. The Browns became a near replica of their cross state rivals last year. All offense, no defense. This was particularly clear in their week 2 matchup with the Bengals last year that ended 51-45. This is a fantasy owners dream!! Division : AFC North Yards Allowed Per Game Steelers : 266 (1st) Ravens : 302 (6th) Bengals : 349 (27th) Browns : 360 (30th) Points Allowed Per Game Steelers : 17 (2nd) Browns : 24 (21st) Ravens : 24 (23rd) Bengals : 24 (24th) Cleveland's future looks quite similar to Cincinnati's. They will both be forced to score a ton of points to win games this year. As long as the offense stays sharp they should be able to be competitive. Some of the stretches in this schedule looks tasty and others not so much. Take a look. Week 1 : Cowboys (11th) Week 2 : Steelers (1st) Week 3 : Ravens (15th) Week 4 : Bengals (27th) Bye Week 6 : Giants (13th) Week 7 : Redskins (8th) Week 8 : Jags (10th) Week 9 : Ravens (15th) Week 10 : Broncos (23rd) Week 11 : Bills (24th) Week 12 : Texans (22nd) Week 13 : Colts (2nd) Week 14 : Titans (5th) Week 15 : Eagles (7th) Week 16 : Bengals (27th) Week 17 : Steelers (1st) Strength Of Schedule Index : 14.25 Fantasy Playoffs Titans (5th) Eagles (7th) Bengals (27th) Fantasy Playoffs Strength Index : 13 Once again, another AFC North team that has a tough schedule because of that NFC East. There is one real nice stretch of games from weeks 10-12 though. Cleveland also got lucky drawing Pittsburgh in week 17 off the fantasy radar. That's about all the good I can find looking up and down this schedule though. These AFC North teams better hope that the Ravens don't get their act together too, otherwise that's another bump in the road that reads as the 15th ranked defense right now. Oh yeah, the fantasy playoffs are ugly too. If you happen to own a Brown and make it to the championship you could be getting fit for your crown though. The week 16 matchup with Cincy could be fireworks. |

| Who Me? Admin | wow, with the history Clev & Cin has imagine having a team laced with them in a championship..... Anyways, another tough AFC North sched, but there are some high points here. My early suggestion on these guy is buy early and bail at the right time. ER is right, the late season schedule outside of the Cincy game could be down right brutal!
