The Browns are going to be taking a preseason tour of the NFC North, also playing the Det Lions at home week two & travel to Chicago to end the preseason. The third week (the most meaningful week) they face the Eagles at the Linc. This is a common preseason opponent (presumably due to the Holmgren connection), this marks the 3rd year in a row they've opened against each other and the Packers look to exact revenge for last year's week one preseason game, which the Packers lost 27-24.

Midwest Shrine Game
GB will be the easternmost (and only non-AFC West) team they will play in the preseason, with tilts at Oakland Coliseum to begin, playing at Lambeau, and ending with home games against the SD Chargers & Den Broncos. This is the only game that's not a xerox of last year's preseason (instead played the Sea Seahawks in preseason week two of '10), though they were the final opponent of the 2009 preseason.
Aug. 26 (7 p.m.)

This is a repeat of last year's preseason week three game. This, too, will be a nationally televised game, like last year, but will be on CBS rather than ESPN. If you recall, we trounced them 59-24, and dominated the game. Manning was clearly upset at the way the game played out, so much so that he came out in the 2nd half to try to have a good drive. That probably only added to the suffering, as on the 4th play, Zombo had a sack-fumble, which was recovered by Francois & returned to the 2 yard line (punctuated by a Flynn TD pass to Kuhn on the next play). They will play at StL Rams, vs. Was Redskins, and their only AFC opponent in the final game at Cin Bengals.
Sept. 1-2 (time TBA)
vs. KC Chiefs

Bishop’s Charities Game
Week one will be a nationally televised game on Fox that pairs two of last year's big surprise teams in a game at Arrowhead vs. the TB Buccaneers. Week two will be a meaningless rematch of the Wild Card game where they fell to the Bal Ravens 30-7. They host their cross-state rival week three, the StL Rams, in a Battle for Missouri.
