Browns’ Winless Season

It looks like an undefeated preseason in the NFL is a good indicator of ineptitude – all four teams that finished the 2017 preseason without a loss failed to make the playoffs. In fact, one of them didn’t win a single game – the Cleveland Browns.

What’s so ironic about this, though? The only other team to finish 0-16 in the regular season was the 2008 Detroit Lions. They, too, went 4-0 in the preseason. The only difference is that in 2008, they were the only team to do that.

If 13 is truly an unlucky number, then the Browns are screwed.
