Browns receive message from LeBron James after clinching playoff berth

The Cleveland Browns clinched a playoff berth for the first time since 2002 with a 24-22 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. One very special fan had a message for the franchise after its win. 

LeBron James, who is from Akron, Ohio and is a long-time Browns fan, advised the team to not be satisfied with just making the playoffs. 

Of course, James knows a little thing or two about winning. The 36-year-old has two NBA titles with the Miami Heat, one with the Cleveland Cavaliers and one with the Los Angeles Lakers. 

James has been very vocal in support of his hometown Browns this season, tweeting about Nick Chubb and Baker Mayfield in the past, showing some love for two of the most talented players on Cleveland's roster. 

Sunday's win over the Steelers allowed the Browns to go 11-5, their best finish and first winning season since 2007.
