Hey, Browns fans, just enjoy yourselves

Guaranteeing my two schedule predictions

HEY, BROWNS FANS, JUST ENJOY YOURSELVES

By STEVE KING
The Browns can’t do this, and they can’t do that.
Their defense gives up way too many rushing yards, their offense needs to do a better job near the goal line and, as a big part of that, their quarterback misses too many wide-open receivers, especially in the end zone, costing the team easy touchdowns.
Arghh!
So what are Browns fans supposed to do about all this?
All this? You mean all these wins in this 8-3 season?
Are you kidding me?
Just enjoy yourselves, for crying out loud.
Enjoy the ride.
Enjoy the fact that it is December and there’s no one already looking forward to next spring’s NFL Draft in Cleveland.
Enjoy the fact that you’re now eagerly anticipating Browns games again. It’s the high point of the week when it gets to 1 p.m. Sunday and the Browns are ready to play.
Enjoy the fact the off-target quarterback, Baker Mayfield, isn’t throwing the ball to the other teams anymore.
Enjoy the fact that the Browns have the best running back tandem in the NFL in Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt.
Enjoy the fact that the Browns may have the best offensive line in the league, too.
Enjoy the fact that the Browns have one of the game’s best defensive ends in Myles Garrett.
Enjoy the fact that the Browns have a Pro Bowl-worthy cornerback in Nordonia High School and Ohio State product Denzel Ward.
Enjoy the fact that the Browns made a good pick in the first round of this year’s  draft with left tackle Jedrick Wills Jr.
Enjoy the fact that even when all these good players can’t play because of injuries or whatever — and that has happened a number of times this year — the Browns still find a way to win.
And enjoy the fact that the Browns have a good general manager in Andrew Berry and a good head coach in Kevin Stefanski, who are on the same page.
Just enjoy.
The other stuff — the negative stuff?
We’ll get to that later, but now’s not the time, not when the Browns have guaranteed themselves of their first non-losing season since 2007.
