The Cleveland Browns entered the 2021 NFL season with Super Bowl hopes. Cleveland was coming off a strong playoff run last season and hoped to go even deeper this year.
Unfortunately for the AFC North team, that won’t be happening.
Cleveland has officially been eliminated from playoff contention following the results of Sunday’s games.
The Browns, 7-8 on the year, are set to play the Steelers on Monday night.
The #Browns are going to be At Home with Baker Mayfield… for the playoffs.

NFL fans have taken to social media to react to the Browns’ elimination.
#Browns about to be officially eliminated from the playoffs.
Yes it’s disappointing. No, major sweeping changes aren’t necessary. Yes, this team should still compete next year.
The disappointment should light a fire under everyone. Buckle up for what will be a crazy offseason.

Ok so now that the Browns are eliminated from playoff contention, Baker should go get all his surgeries like right now, and Keenum should QB the last two weeks.

The Browns officially eliminated from the playoffs. But they’ve won 2 best off-season championships. And 3 best-team-on-paper Super Bowls. Congratulations.
