Rumor: Browns set for Week 1 showdown with in-state rivals

Will the Battle of Ohio be Week 1?

The full 2023 NFL schedule will be released in prime time tonight at 8 PM. However, the rumors are flying as the league slowly releases some of the games ahead of 8 PM. ESPN Cleveland is now reporting that they believe the Cleveland Browns will open Week 1 at home against the Cincinnati Bengals.

It would be a great test to start the season going against the reigning AFC North champions that returned to the AFC Championship for the second straight season. Having a division opponent to start the season is tough, but if you can grab an early advantage in the division race it would be a great way to start the 2023 season.
