What has been clear over the past two decades is the Browns do not play primetime games. A social media post from one self-titled “schedule aficionado” has put that into perspective. The Twitter account titled NFL Schedule Update shared a thread showing the past 20 years of primetime games, revealing Cleveland has played in less than one game per season in that period. Average number of games on Monday per season for each team since 2002 realignment: 1 – PHI – 1.91
2 – GB – 1.59
3 – NYG – 1.55
4 – PIT – 1.50
5 – CHI – 1.45
5 – NO – 1.45
7 – DEN – 1.41
7 – NE – 1.41
9 – BAL – 1.27
9 – MIN – 1.27
9 – SF – 1.27
12 – NYJ – 1.23
13 – LAC – 1.18
13… — NFL Schedule Update (@NerdingonNFL) May 5, 2024 Cleveland ranks 29th in this category, tied with Detroit by playing an average of 0.59 Monday night games over the past two decades. The stat has improved significantly over the past five years, however, as multiple Monday night doubleheaders have increased the amount of games played on this coveted date. According to the game data, the Browns have played in 1.4 Monday night games per season over the last five years, tying the team for 11th place. NFL schedules have been equally as unkind to the Browns for Sunday night games, ranking the team in a tie for 28th – again with Detroit – by playing an average of 0.41 times in Sunday’s primetime slot. Average number of games on Sunday Night per season for each team since 2002 realignment: 1 – DAL – 2.68
2 – GB – 2.05
3 – PIT – 1.95
4 – NE – 1.91
5 – PHI – 1.82
6 – NYG – 1.77
7 – IND – 1.59
8 – CHI – 1.55
9 – DEN – 1.45
10 – KC – 1.36
11 – BAL – 1.27
12 – LAC – 1.14
