NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The NFL’s longest active playoff drought is moving closer to an end after 18 seasons.

Cleveland has won four straight and is second in the AFC North behind unbeaten Pittsburgh.
With both chasing AFC playoff berths, the Browns looked like the team leading a division as they improved to 9-3.
The Titans fell into a tie atop the AFC South, though they still have the better division record.
