Browns Punch Ticket To Playoffs, Finish Ahead Of Steelers For First Time In 34 Years

The Cleveland Browns are playoff bound. It’s not a sentence that can be written often but for the second time since 2003, the Browns will be part of the postseason. They stamped their ticket in style, rolling the New York Jets 37-20 to move to 11-5 on the season.

The Browns win guarantees they will finish ahead of the Pittsburgh Steelers in the division for the first time since 1989. The best the Steelers can finish is 10-7.

QB Joe Flacco continued his magical run, throwing three first half scores and 296 yards as Cleveland took a 34-17 lead into the half.
