I don’t know how that was ever a credible theory in the first place. Hypothetical schedule “difficulty” is never a consideration whatsoever when the league is putting together the schedules.All the primetime/national TV games are worked out and scheduled first after the networks bid on them, and then a computer automatically puts the rest of the schedule together, factoring in little more than travel distance.

Week 1 -- Titans = Win - I predict a blowout - not because the Titans are bad, but because I think our D-Line will be fresh (like last year vs. Pittsburgh) and the Titans O-Line isn't great. The anticipation will be huge @ home for us and our energy will be insane. Just don't think the Titans win this game. Maybe a slow start (13-10 at halftime), but our guys get it together and win 33-13.
Week 2 -- at Jets = Win - Same thing - Jets O-Line is bad but I do think their defense and home crowd will make this tough. But the Browns are the better team and will win 24-21
Week 3 -- Rams = Loss - I think Baker will have a bad game with the interior pass rush from Donald. Nationally televised on SNF, this is the game where people question whether or not the Browns are the ~real deal~. Browns lose 17-31.
Week 4 -- at Ravens = Win - Winning in Baltimore is never easy but by this time Lamar Jackson won't be the scary weapon that he was last year. Browns overcome the Ravens 27-14 in Baltimore.
Week 5 -- at 49ers = Loss - It's MNF again but this time the favored 3-1 Browns fall yet again. Baker has a decent game but the 49ers are just playing their best game. 49ers win in a nailbiter, 24-23.
Week 6 -- Seahawks = Loss - Can it be 2-straight losses? You bet! Browns lose the time of possession game to a Seahawks team that is strong in the running game. Baker plays well but just doesn't have many opportunities. The Browns defense shows cracks. Browns lose 14-24.
Week 7 -- Bye
Week 8 -- at Patriots = Win - Just a 3-3 team, questions arise. People are thinking the Browns are overrated and the Pats are favored to win in Foxborough. Instead, the Browns show the world the potential and capability that they have. Coming fresh off the bye they storm the Patriots 21-6 in the first half. The game slows down and NE starts to come back, but it's not enough and the Browns close the game 34-27.
Week 9 -- at Broncos = Loss - The young Browns are high and confident after defeating the Pats and lose sight of a tough team to beat at Miles High stadium. Denver wins this game on the strength of their defense and special teams, 26-21.
Week 10 -- Buffalo = Win - The Browns, at 4-4, begin the turnaround of their season with the destruction of a much weaker Bills team. It's Baker's best game of the year and the Browns come out on top 41-16
Week 11 -- Steelers = Win - Perhaps the best game against the Steelers in recent memory (not quite like the surprise beatdown about 4 years ago with Hoyer I think), the Browns execute well and beat their rivaled giant for the first time in years on TNF. Browns win 38-24
Week 12 -- Dolphins = Win - Can we make it 3 games in a row? Absolutely. The 2-9 Dolphins revert to full tank mode and the Browns are like a train picking up steam. Are the Browns finally figuring it out? Another wallop, with the Browns winning 31-7
Week 13 -- at Steelers = Loss - Just as the Browns fans are at an all-time high, it comes crashing down with a stark reminder that the Steelers are still our nemesis. The Steelers manage to steal this game on what should have been a win for the Browns, on the backs of some big plays by Ben Roethlisberger. Browns lose 17-27
Week 14 -- Bengals = Win - First game against the Bengals this year is pretty intense. They start off with a 17-3 lead, strongly motivated by the wrecking they received last year (yes, they still remember). But the Browns are simply the better team and deliver a smooth and explosive comeback to win this game 35-31.
Week 15 -- at Cardinals = Win - Kyler Murray vs. Baker? Yezzzir. Exciting to see them on the field but that's kinda where it ends. Browns take the Cardinals to the shed in Arizona with another explosive output (starting to put it together!) to win 37-13
Week 16 -- Ravens = Win - Will the Ravens get their revenge? Nope. The five-win Ravens aren't a strong team at this point, with Lamar being injured for some games and RG3 filling in for some. Browns get a solid win, 28-10
Week 17 -- at Bengals = Loss - Believe it or not, the division is won in week 16. The 5-10 Ravens, 7-8 Bengals, 8-7 Steelers, and 10-5 Browns shape it out. Baker rests this game and we see a decent Bengals team win this game, 23-13.
Browns regular season: wins the division to earn a playoff birth, and finishes 10-6.
Week 2 -- at Jets = Win - Same thing - Jets O-Line is bad but I do think their defense and home crowd will make this tough. But the Browns are the better team and will win 24-21

Why not just buy tickets to a home game here and not provide revenue to other teams!?
Also, friend and I now discussing flying out there for the game. AZ in December, the girls in Scottsdale. Sold

Can't wait to go to the warm weather games. But to me that's the toughest part of the schedule. I wanna sit next to a Steeler fan to celebrate and talk shit but I just refuse to go to a cold ass game. I can't do anything under 40 degrees by that damn lake. Got my fingers crossed for the home opener. It's gonna be insane
