I think the missed extra point could of won us thhe game....hear me out.....so we tie it up Ravens play less conservative.....then we get the ball back and dont play to win, we play to not lose, that entire 2nd half of the 4th plays enntirely different withouth the missed XP.

Honestly not that crazy.

The Browns needed to score again to win the game regardless. Might as well come in regulation instead of overtime.

I legit wasnt sweating the missed xp at all. Again maybe was the alcohol. But I saw it as we needed to get the ball and go score to win regardless.

Fuck a OT. I go a capela!!

What sort of poverty high school locker room is that? Do they even have running water?

Props all around to fighting. Not sure what happened that 2ns half, but if you carry that over against anyone....we're gonna ge tough to beat.

Somewhat forgotten is other than the one play to begin the 4th quarter, the Browns D shut down Andrews for this game. That hasn't happened in a long time. Schwartz had a great game plan disguising coverages.

serious question:

Have we EVER watched a win like that?

I saw my first Browns game live in 1972. Had season tickets 1983-89 and attended the great Playoff win against the Jets.

We had the Mauling of the Steelers in the playoffs a few years ago where we had them literally crying.

But I love the Browns who were the best franchise in the sport for years and had a heritage second to none. That team was taken from us and given to Baltimore, the asshole of the East Coast. The replacement franchise just hasn’t been the same.

Beating the Ravens with Dawson’s kick that hit the stanchion and was originally ruled no good to send us to OT was amazing and a measure of revenge.

Today was better for me.

I remember waking up the morning of the AFC Championship Game in Denver (2nd of 3) feeling extremely nervous, more so than any game before or since. I was convinced we had the better team. We had to receive to start the game - turnover. We kept making mistakes, tried to come back, more mistakes, freak plays etc. We tied fourth quarter with Earnest Byner just killing it for us running and receiving. Denver goes up a TD, we’re heading for the end zone, and then 10th round pick Byner - one of the best people ever to wear a Cleveland uniform - was stripped just before crossing the goal line. Just heartbreaking for the team and the fans. So, so painful.

Most of us have seen the Byner interview where, years later, he broke down and cried when discussing that. He apologized to Cleveland. It was heartbreaking again to see that.

Class move by the Cavaliers to put him in the parade. He deserves lots of love. Played his heart out but it didn’t result in a win.

Today was the most nervous I’ve been since that game. The whole fourth quarter I was a complete wreck. We made so many mistakes and it seemed all game there was just too much to overcome.

But our men never quit. They fought. They erred. They fought harder. Some left due to injury. They fought harder. And harder. And harder.

Finally there was the image of Joel Bitonio running behind the play after a great block and adding his strength to push the Browns to a first down. Hopkins kicked it and we beat those bastards who stole our team, our HoF TE who became a great GM and those two rings.

I’ve never been so nervous about a game that ended in a victory since the Jets 2OT playoff winner but with all the adversity and the fact that it was the Ravens this is the most meaningful win for me I’ve ever seen.

I feel that we’ve got our Browns back.

Next week The Big Bad Browns are Back in Town. Let’s destroy the Steelers and win the toughest division in football.

I might no5 survive another game like this though.

Props to Tillman for the mash on KVN

Didn’t do much the rest of the game but that was just one of many examples showing this team is not going to be manhandled or beat down by any team.

We can match physicality with any team in the league and we’ve already played s several teams with reputations for always being physical(PIT, BAL, TEN, SF)

Shoutout Jerome Ford for easily the best all around game of his career.

this was today's equivalent of Jarrett Allen clubbing Draymond Green.

Absolute joy of a weekend.

Not to look ahead but the Bengals and Ravens get to slug it out in 4 days.

Next Sunday could be for the division lead.

I don't wish players injuries, but if Stanley's knee needs 14 surgeries including a bout of MRSA after his cheap shot to Ward I wouldn't bee too sad.

My reverse psychology worked like a charm.

What was the cheap shot? If that why Ward left the game? I only got to watch in fits and spurts.

We can play with anyone.

Great callout. This was an underrated play coming from a guy who has struggled to see the field in part due to of his lack of blocking.

Sometimes it takes a rookie who doesn’t know any better. This was one of those times. He doesn’t have any little brother in him.

Other play like this was the hit on Lamar before the half. Whoever decleated him deserves to wear the chain too. Next play pick. Obviously got his marbles shook.

Also Myles was getting after it. Like he turned it up to another level.

The plays of the game were those above and the 17!!! Play drive. Once that happened, the big bad Ravens looked gassed. They really lost their edge and KEVSKI called a helluva game.
