The last time the Browns were still in the playoff picture after 14 games.
#54
(12-17-2018, 12:38 PM)fredtoast Wrote: 2007.  At 9-5 the Browns are in the thick of the playoff race.  Their next opponent is the 5-9 Bengals who have nothing to play for.

The Browns are led by their Pro Bowl QB, Derek Anderson, in just his second year in the league.  They have the #8 scoring offense in the league.  Their future looks much brighter than the Bengals whose '05 playoff appearance is looking like a fluke.  Despite playing at home the Bengals are a 3 point underdog.

Both QBs struggle on a windy December day, but Kenny Watson has a career high 130 rushing yards for the Bengals and safety Chinedum Ndukwe makes two crucial interceptions to seal a 19-14 Bengals win.

Browns are eliminated from the playoffs and have not had another winnning season since.  Meanwhile the Bengals have made the playoffs 6 more times since.

That was the 1 game I worked for Tenable Security just so I could get paid to watch a game. After the game, I bought a Bengals mini-helmet at the Pro Shop that I eventually had signed by AJ Green the day after he was drafted.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
