Breaking down the Browns 2024 schedule

We know a little about the Browns 2024 schedule, which will be released in full on Wednesday night at 8 p.m., but there's still plenty of mystery about how the 17 weeks after their opener against Dallas will play out.
Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe did their annual schedule prediction draft on Tuesday's Orange and Brown Talk podcast. They go through and place all of the opponents throughout the schedule.
They take turns drafting opponents and placing them on a line on the schedule, trying to figure out how to backload the schedule with division games, not end up with too many home or road games in a row and whether the Browns will end up playing Jacksonville in London.
