Browns fans should start preparing for some late nights in the 2008 season.
The NFL released the complete schedule Tuesday afternoon, and the Browns have a team-record five prime-time games. The previous best was three in 1988 and 1989.
The league considers the Browns a “hot” team after going a surprising 10-6 last season and just missing the playoffs. They also have big-name players in receiver Braylon Edwards, tight end Kellen Winslow and quarterbacks Derek Anderson and Brady Quinn.
The Browns open the season in another high-profile matchup, hosting the Dallas Cowboys on Sept. 7 at 4:15 p.m. Then the prime-time games begin.
