CLEVELAND – As if this on-any-given-Sunday-or-Monday-night NFL season wasn’t wacky enough, check out this bit of craziness: The Cleveland Browns are talking playoffs.

Playoffs?

Believe it, all you Jim Mora sound-a-likes. The Browns are dead serious.

“We definitely feel we can make the playoffs,” wide receiver Braylon Edwards said. “That’s ultimately our goal.”

And why shouldn’t it be? With a favorable schedule ahead, the Browns, 3-3 at their bye week, are positioned to make a run at the AFC’s postseason for just the second time since their 1999 expansion rebirth.

An ambitious goal for sure, but an attainable one for the rapidly improving Browns, who were 1-5 and going nowhere at this time last season.

Running back Jamal Lewis, one of Cleveland’s impact free-agent signings, senses a team coming together.

“It’s not just that playoff feel, but we’re doing things the right way right now and we’re not taking steps backward,” said Lewis, who missed the past two games with a foot injury he described as “nothing serious.”

“If we can keep moving forward and keep doing what we’re doing and improve on what we’ve been doing wrong I think we can go that (playoff) route. It’s within reach.”
