The Browns are expected to compete for an AFC title this season. How’s that for something new? Cleveland ended its 18-season playoff drought in 2020 before getting its first postseason win since 1994. The bar is set even higher in 2021 with the Browns among the teams favored to contend for the Super Bowl. Cleveland’s offense, led by quarterback Baker Mayfield, returned all 11 starters.

The Browns’ season ended with a gut-wrenching loss in Kansas City, which will host Cleveland in the season opener on Sept. 12.
