All 32 teams (including Joe Flacco and the Browns) ranked by their playoff probability

With just three weeks to go, the playoff picture is getting much clearer by the day. And for the Cleveland Browns and quarterback Joe Flacco, they are separating themselves with the rest of the playoff teams after another win over the Chicago Bears, still holding firm to the fifth seed and the top wildcard spot.

The last time the Browns made the playoffs was in 2020, a year when they even won a playoff game over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Overcoming an incredibly banged-up roster, head coach Kevin Stefanski has his team in position to compete for a shot at the title once again as the Browns sit at 9-5.

Can Joe Flacco stay hot? Can the Browns continue to finish the season on a high note with a trip to Houston to take on the Texans next on their schedule?

Here, we use ESPN’s Football Power Index to rank all 32 teams by their odds of making the playoffs as the Browns continue to move toward clinching their spot in the playoffs for the first time in three years.
