The 7-3 Browns have a rare chance to become serious Super Bowl contenders in 2023. They also have a rare chance to deepen the bond among the players and coaches in late November and early December.
With road games this weekend in Denver and the following weekend in L.A. against the Rams, the Browns won’t be coming home between the two contests. That will give them an opportunity to draw even closer and lock arms even tighter for the stretch run and beyond.
“It’s almost like the Greenbrier all over again,” defensive end Myles Garrett told PFT by phone after Sunday’s win over the Steelers, referring to their training-camp time in West Virginia. “Having everyone around each other and focus on the things that matter during the season and that’s finding a way to improve and find a way to win.”
The trip will be the most productive if 7-3 becomes 9-3. But even if they lose one of the next two, that experience together could be perfect preparation for a chance to capture the division title, possibly snag the No. 1 seed, and then climb the playoff tree all the way to the franchise’s first ever Super Bowl appearance.
