8. They rotate the divisional opponents and slot other conference opponents based on where they finish

So Cleveland plays Buffalo, Oakland, and Houston (which one of those teams they would play already based on which in-conference division the AFC North is match up against) - so Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, and Baltimore all play the same schedule with the exception of 2 opponents which in theory should be the easiest for Cleveland since they finished 4th in division.

On edit - I see those divisions are NFC South and AFC South. They faced NFC West, North, and East divisions more recently as well as AFC West and East divisions.
