The Cleveland Browns have won a single game over the past two seasons, but could their fortunes change as they head through their 2018 schedule?
Forgettable would probably be the best way to describe how the past two seasons have played out for the Cleveland Browns. They have played 32 regular season games over that span, as every team has. Unlike every team, however, they have won just one of those contests over the past two years.
The one silver lining that comes from the Browns’ overall lack of success has been their stockpiling of draft picks. Cleveland added three players in the first round last year, and will have two of the first four selections in the 2018 NFL Draft on April 26 — one of which will hopefully be the quarterback to end their long-going woes at the position.
As of right now, there are pieces in place for the Browns to be intriguing. With a defense featuring the likes of Myles Garrett, Jabrill Peppers, Jamie Collins, Chris Kirksey and several others, the unit has potential. And even with Joe Thomas retiring, the offense has some intriguing pieces up front on the line and some others like Josh Gordon and Jarvis Landry — and Tyrod Taylor, maybe — that could improve this team.
This group should have much more success in the upcoming season. For that to happen, they’ll need to get through this road though, looking at the Cleveland Browns 2018 schedule that has now been released:

Again, it’s not fair to expect the Browns to go from winless to being in the playoff picture. However, this team should have enough talent throughout the roster to get out of the cellar of the league and see a little light at the end of the tunnel. The rebuilding process has been never-ending in Cleveland, but a conclusion to it may actually be nearing.
