The Cleveland Browns close out the 2017 NFL regular season on Dec. 31 with a road game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The game will end sometime shortly after 4 p.m., most likely with another season-ending loss to the Steelers, a scenario that has played out seven previous times since 2008. That could likely finish off an 0-16 season, giving head coach Hue Jackson a record of 1-31 as Browns head coach.
If the Browns were a “real NFL team” run by a “real NFL owner,” such a historically woeful mark would be enough for a coaching change, but these are the Browns and Jimmy Haslam we are talking about.
