Cleveland Browns Schedule 2024: Dates, Time, TV Channel, Opponents and Season Outlook 

The Cleveland Browns made it to the playoffs last season even after quarterback Deshaun Watson went down injured. In fact, many would say that they made it precisely because he was replaced by Joe Flacco toward the end of the season, who came in to win the NFL Comeback Player of the Year Award.

That is not a good look for a person who has a fully guaranteed contract and is ostensibly the franchise quarterback. The Browns have since shipped off Joe Flacco to ensure Watson is the top dog once again and he will be tasked to take charge of the team and lead them to the playoffs.

To do so, they will have to navigate the following 17-game maze that is their 2024 regular season schedule.

Cleveland Browns 2024 Season Outlook

The Browns made the playoffs last season and will look to repeat that feat this year. But it will not be easy. The AFC North accomplished something immense in 2023, when all the teams finished with a winning record and three of them made the playoffs.

But now, it will likely be tougher for the Browns. The Cincinnati Bengals, who missed out on the postseason have Joe Burrow back fit and healthy. The Ravens, who topped the division and the conference seedings, have added Derrick Henry to Lamar Jackson's offense. Meanwhile, the Pittsburgh Steelers have moved on from Kenny Pickett and have added two able quarterbacks in Russell Wilson and Justin Fields.

The aim will be the postseason once more for the Browns, especially with Deshaun Watson coming back healthy. They would love to go beyond the Wild Card round like they did last time around, but the truth is that they might find the path tougher than before.
