Browns 2021 opponent power rankings: Orange and Brown Talk
Today 5:00 AM
CLEVELAND, Ohio For a third place schedule, the Browns’ 2021 slate sure has some doozies.
It starts with facing the entirety of the AFC West, a division with the potential to be one of the best in football, already featuring Kansas City but also including the Chargers with one of the game’s best young quarterbacks, the Broncos with a stabilized quarterback position and the Raiders, who are no pushover.
Then there’s NFC North matchups against Green Bay of course, there’s a big if with the Packers right now and Minnesota, always a playoff contender. They also face the revamped Patriots along with their regular slate of division opponents, most notably the Ravens.
The NFL releases the 2021 regular-season schedule on Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET. Among the marquee games is Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady's return to Foxborough, Mass. to face the New England Patriots.
Aaron Rodgers rumors? Jarvis Landry or OBJ? Too much Browns hype? Hey, Terry!

How much of an upgrade would Aaron Rodgers be for the Cleveland Browns? Does a trade make sense?

CLEVELAND, Ohio – An 11-5 season followed by a playoff win and then a solid draft has Browns fans excited and armed with plenty of questions:
Hey, Terry: Please tell me this Aaron Rodgers to the Browns talk will go nowhere. Will Baker Mayfield get his new contract?
– James Morrison, Byesville.
Hey, James: Let’s break down the Rodgers situation:
1. Rodgers is trying to force his way out of Green Bay. Green Bay doesn’t want to trade the MVP, but it could come to that. This is much like an NBA move where James Harden and Anthony Davis recently leveraged their teams not only into trading them – but also dealing them to the players’ favored destinations.
The silence continues in the Deshaun Watson legal drama, as it s been over two weeks since either side has spoken, and if we ve learned one thing through said silence, it s that time should likely heal most of the wounds when it comes to the P.R. damage Watson has done. The rumor mill has begun churning again with possible Watson trade scenarios, and it s widely believed that, at some point, the Texans should move him for a haul that will be a decent jumpstart to their rebuild.
That is the hope, at least. Watson s legal issues have proven to be a big enough obstacle as it is, but over the last two weeks another hindrance has arisen the possibility of the Green Bay Packers moving on from disgruntled reigning league MVP, Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers has made no bones about the fact that he wants out of Green Bay, so all of a sudden, the supply in the available Top 5 QB category has possibly gone from one to two.
