Cleveland Browns Eliminated From Playoff Contention After Falling to 6-9

In this story:
With the 17-10 loss to the New Orleans Saints in week 16, the Cleveland Browns have officially been eliminated from playoff contention this season. Cleveland needed to their last three games, they also needed a lot of outside help.
With Watson taking over when the team was 4-7, the playoffs always looked to be a long shot. That turned out to be true and the focus now shifts to what this team can be in 2023.
There is plenty of change that will come between now and then, but for now, the Browns have two games left in a meaningless season.
