WWE star The Miz drops bold prediction for Deshaun Watson-less Browns

Deshaun Watson will miss the rest of the season for the Cleveland Browns, but that isn't stopping at least one high-profile star from backing his team. With Jameis Winston and Nick Chubb lining up on Sunday, it will be a different look, for sure.

However, one WWE star is expecting the world. On Thursday's edition of "Good Morning Football," The Miz said the Super Bowl is within reach.

"We're going to the Super Bowl," The Miz said (0:40). "You heard it here first, folks, because our heartbeat is back. Nick Chubb has always been the heartbeat of that offense."

"People are like saying, 'well, you lost with Nick Chubb.' He's getting the rust off. Well, right now we're a ground-and-pound team. Now we're going to run the ball. We're going to play solid defense and we're going to go to the Super Bowl."

It is a bold claim for the 1-6 squad currently stuck in 15th place out of 16 teams in the AFC. The Joe Flacco backup quarterback revival last season was something to remember, but the Browns going on a hot streak with Jameis Winston and Nick Chubb to the Super Bowl would trump that tale 10:1.

There are two main roads to the Super Bowl for the 1-6 Deshaun Watson-less Cleveland Browns; however, both seem completely out of reach to most fans. One path sees them win out, finishing at 11-6 and getting the top seed in the AFC. Even this path would need some help from the undefeated Kansas City Chiefs, 5-2 Houston Texans and 5-2 Buffalo Bills.

By winning out, the Browns would be sweeping the Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers, granting the Browns the tiebreaker. They would also need help from both teams in a notable slowdown to log at least six losses.

The other path would require a maximum of two more losses in an 8-2 run to climb to a 9-8 final record. This path would net a wild card spot, but this too would require help. This is just to reach the playoffs.

Once in the playoffs, the Browns would need Jameis Winston to win not just his first playoff start, but also one or two more times to get to the Super Bowl. He will likely go through Patrick Mahomes for a second time and Lamar Jackson for a third time.

From here on out, every game is a de facto elimination game for the Deshaun Watson-less Cleveland Browns. How long can they last in sudden death?
