Browns’ playoff probability now up to 69 percent after win vs. Bengals

After a convincing win over the back-to-back AFC North champs, the Cleveland Browns have seen a massive jump in their playoff odds. The Cincinnati Bengals are considered Super Bowl contenders across the board, but the Browns took care of business, blowing them out by three scores.

As a result, ESPN’s Football Power Index now gives them a 69 percent chance to make the playoffs in 2023. In their power rankings, the Browns jumped three spots from 13 to 10 after this blowout win against the team that has played in back-to-back AFC Championship Games. The Browns, by this same projection, have the 17th toughest schedule the rest of the way out.

With a win against the Pittsburgh Steelers on national television this week, the Browns have a real opportunity to announce themselves on Monday Night Football. And if they do, those numbers will just continue to climb up the leaderboards among various publications like ESPN.
