The Cleveland Browns lit a spark under their fans and across the NFL with their victory over the New York Jets a little more than a week ago.
That spark could turn into a bonfire if the Browns can string a few wins together starting on Sunday when they face the Oakland Raiders.
Just don’t expect that to turn into an appearance this season on Sunday Night Football.
Beginning in Week 5, NBC has the ability to dump the scheduled Sunday night game and “flex” another game into that time slot.
It is not as simple as executives at NBC pointing to the schedule and saying, “we want Baker Mayfield and the Browns,” however.
