"All aboard the bandwagon to Cincy!" [Cincinnati] --Myers

Confidence? Yes.
Well-placed? Oh yes.

"This is totally the week Cleveland wins. (5th time predicting that)" [Cincinnati] --Taylor~G

Attempted jinx reverse jinx? Yes.
Necessary? Probably not.

"I remember when we weren't allowed to pick Cleveland's opponent." [Cincinnati] --BaumbasticBushkin

Should be a rule? Probably every year.
Was ever a real rule? Not any year.

"Can't pick CIN as Drumpf has made me afraid of orange."[Atlanta] --Jenks~C

Get off the bandwagon? Not a problem.
Pick a losing team out there? Whoops.

A pattern is emerging... The Browns lose. This is a theory that has been gaining support for the past 17 years, but I think it is time to believe in it. So to reach the playoffs undefeated, you will need to plan for the following weeks:
Week 10: Cleveland plays on Thursday
Week 11/17: Cleveland plays Pittsburgh both weeks
Week 13: Cleveland does not lose!! (bye week)
Week 14: Cleveland plays Cincinnati again

If you can navigate those weeks, you could be on your way to the money.

(Then again, if the Indians win the World Series, beware that Cleveland Magic!!)
