Week 16 NFL Power Rankings: Making Amends?

In SB Nation's Week 16 NFL Power Rankings, Joel Thorman has made amends for the hatred we spewed at him last week and moved the Cleveland Browns up to No. 18 overall. Wow! You have to wonder if Joel overcompensated a bit here after a loss.

Week 15 NFL Power Rankings: Browns...DROP?

In SB Nation's Week 15 NFL Power Rankings, Joel Thorman has dropped the Cleveland Browns two spots down to No. 27 overall.This doesn't make much sense. The Browns win their third straight game, are coming off of a blowout win, and fall two spots?

Week 14 NFL Power Rankings: Browns at No. 25

In SB Nation's Week 14 NFL Power Rankings, Joel Thorman ranked the Cleveland Browns at No. 25 overall, which for the second straight week bumps them up to a new high. The Browns have won two games in a row for the first time since early last season,

In SB Nation's Week 10 NFL Power Rankings, Joel Thorman dropped the Cleveland Browns down to No. 30 overall following their 25-15 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Had the Browns won, I think they could've been No. 24 overall.

Week 8 Power Rankings: Browns Remain at No. 30

In SB Nation's Week 8 NFL Power Rankings, Joel Thorman kept the Cleveland Browns as the No. 30 ranked team, despite their loss to the Indianapolis Colts. I did actually get my wish to finally have the Jaguars fall to No. 32 overall, though.

Week 7 Power Rankings: Browns Up to No. 30

In SB Nation's Week 7 NFL Power Rankings, Joel Thorman has the Cleveland Browns as the No. 30 ranked team, which is up one spot from last week. Dropping behind the Browns are the Kansas City Chiefs, who are now the lowest-ranked team in the league.

Week 6 Power Rankings: Browns Up to No. 31

In SB Nation's Week 6 NFL Power Rankings, Joel Thorman has the Cleveland Browns as the No. 31 ranked team. Despite losing to the Giants this past Sunday and being the only winless team in the NFL, it turns out that "being competitive" pays off.

Week 5 Power Rankings: Browns Still Ranked Last

For the second week in a row, Joel Thorman from SB Nation has the Cleveland Browns has the No. 32 team in their Week 5 NFL Power Rankings. I still believe their are worse teams than the Browns, including the Titans and the Jaguars.
