The Cleveland Browns were a resilient bunch during the 2023 NFL season as they overcame several tough injuries to qualify for the 2024 NFL Playoffs.
Although Cleveland was bounced in the Wild Card round against the Houston Texans, there is optimism that the team will be back in Super Bowl contention.
Deshaun Watson should be back under center, while the defense remains one of the best units on paper in the league.
Aside from the upcoming regular season, the NFL has been trying to find ways to tweak the Pro Bowl Games which have declined in popularity and viewership in recent years.
Due to the caution with injuries, Pro Bowlers are pitted against each other in different sorts of competitions that are fun but aren’t the same as regular football.
Former Browns star receiver Josh Cribbs offered up some ideas on how to spice up the Pro Bowl Games via The Cribbs Show.
“I wanna see the AFC North versus everybody,” Cribbs said. “I think this is the best conference. And then play in London, play in Brazil, change their jerseys.”

Cribbs brings an interesting idea to the table, though logistically it would be difficult to pull that off given the travel.
There is also the issue of teams in the AFC North like the Browns wanting to put out their actual rosters in meaningless games.
However, Cribbs at least is thinking outside the box as he and the fans would like to see some serious football being played.
For now, though, it seems like the current version of the Pro Bowl Games is here to stay.
