BEREA, Ohio (AP) – That giant zero hanging on the Browns right now might as well be a bull’s-eye.

Nobody wants to lose to the NFL’s only winless squad.

At 0-13, Cleveland has become an unlikely target.

“That’s one of the challenges when you go this long without winning a game,” Pro Bowl tackle Joe Thomas said.

“You’ve gone from maybe a team that other teams are going to overlook to the team that you’re definitely not going to get overlooked because teams don’t want to be the team that lost to you, and they are going to circle that game.”
