That face when you realize the Browns actually won 10 games in a season at one point.
Also Josh Cribbs was a beast.
And still didn't made the playoffs poor Cleveland
Coach Romeo was the shit 🔥🔥
@@benjmeister227 the pats won 11 games and missed the playoffs one year later. Crazy if you ask me
For real the AFC was loaded during those years
Benjamin Gonzalez pats, steelers, ravens, titans, colts, chargers, jets, browns in 07, dolphins in 08, etc.
That cribbage return at 9:15 was unreal. He’s one of the most underrated special team guys of all time
Now they in the playoffs!!!
@@erics2739 Now they don’t!!!
I remember him being one of the best special team guys of all time. After Devin Hester, he someone I think about in that category.
@@babarazamsucksnow they are in the playoffs
I’ll never forget this game! When Big Ben ran for that 30 yard TD Run I went CRAZY! Lol 😆
Like to see him do that now..
And then josh cribs took it 100 yrds lmao
Man he could really run at his prime
Them 07 brown unis is better then the current uniforms..
We need to go back to the old look. They look like yoga pants now. What NFL team has words on their pants?
Cory Karhoff and talk about a HORRIBLE color scheme. The orange jerseys are disgusting to look at
YES one of my favorite jersey of all time except for the 2006 panthers aqua blue jerseys
Better than*...the word "than" compares one object to another, whereas the word "then" is a reference to a particular time. English is your friend, sir. Go Steelers!
I've always thought the Browns uniforms looked clean af and also had that 'classic' look that only a few franchises have. The fact that they went away from it for a "modernized" look was so disappointing.
That was a damn good catch by Braylon Edwards though.
Michigan legend
I completely forgot about 9:19. That’s gotta be the most amazing kick return ever.
I guess 2007 is the old 2020 because boy is it awfully strange to hear Nantz and Simms calling a Browns game 🤣
😂😂😂
Aside from the awesomeness that was Josh Cribbs, 7:22 is how I remember this game: Derek Anderson badly missing open receivers in the 2nd half. This was the game in which defensive coordinators figured-out "DA"- take away his deep routes and he'd struggle badly with the underneath stuff because he was so inaccurate. A one year wonder.
that's why they let him go to the Cardinals where he was out of the league in under a year.
Since they came back in 1999 The Browns are 90-222-1...this one year they were 10-6 and still didn't make the playoffs....just wow.
Josh Cribbs very underrated for his skill set,QB,RB,WR,KR dude was a real Swiss Army knife
The Browns were pretty competitive this year. Pittsburgh had it's moments too. Who could forgot the legendary year James Harrison had, and Joe Thomas walked in the NFL and became the best LT in football for the next decade. Oh and Josh' Cribbs was a record breaker
Braylon Edward's monster year too
That kick at the end was crazy it looked as it'd go in perfectly and just stopped!
Josh Cribbs almost single handedly got the Browns to OT
Cribbs Kick off returns were absolutely nuts!
Great upload. Always been curious about this game since I heard Ben Roethlisberger ran 30 yards. This is the season before I became a Steelers fan. As a Pittsburgh native, this makes me feel a little better after today.
Best wishes to the people in Pittsburgh, hate for that to happen. Not safe anywhere, but it's all about being safe and secure.
Brandon S Thanks.
The following year the Steelers won Superbowl 43, is that why you became fan that year.
Hines ward with the key block @ the five yard line to spring Ben into the end one
@@okaybye75 My first full game was the 2008 AFC Championship. Then they won the Super Bowl. Been a fan ever since. Sorry for the late reply. 😂
Hard to believe how far Kellen Winslow fell.
Yes. He was convicted of several rapes in California & is serving a 14 year prison sentence.
Oh yea. Was convicted of several rapes in California in 2021 & is serving a 14 year prison sentence.
That hit at 8:00 would’ve been flagged in today’s NFL
True. Defenseless receiver
It was flagged on that play too 😂
9:22 This is why Tomlin be trippin players down the sideline
I miss games like this!!! 😔 Cribbs to the Crib, Troy P, Winslow, Willie P, man
The 07 Browns were a fun team to watch even for us non-Browns fans. They didn't have a bunch of superstars but they had a bunch of guys who were tough, smart and could play ball. 10-6 could get you wildcard most years but not when there's a 16-0 team in the conference.
Gotta love underdogs that can hold there own in a scrap
AFC was stacked that year. AFC was just stacked in the 2000s in general. Perennial New England, Indianapolis, San Diego, Pittsburgh, Denver, New York jets, Tennessee, Baltimore contenders almost every single year.
I was at that game crazy ass ending
lmaooo Joe Jurevicius got fucked up at 14:08 - he was so out of it , the ref had to scream at him for the ball while Jurevicius just stared at him 😂😂😂
As a Steeler fan, I miss these days!
Will Pickett bring them back ???
@@ericpackers1700 oooof lol
Man ppl need to respect the afc north. So many good nail biting games between Steelers &the rest of the teams. Good ravens games all the time that come down to the wire a lot of browns games & bengal games to. So many good games from the 2000s going on a binge watch tonight lol. Let’s hope Ben can get 7 and go out on top!!! Here we go!
Love this game. My daughter was born during the game.
Steelers were getting shellacked in the first half...
Vicarod - my daughter was born during the saints/colts SB. I thought everybody was messing with me when they said saints won
Josh cribbs was a straight beast😂 dude hade 200 return yards and a TD that return was so nasty
Can't believe you didn't show the pushing and shoving at the end.
9:00 Hines is the goat
ah.. the last season we had a winning record... anyone want to know what's depressing? I'm 20 years old. I was born in 1998. I was born in canton Ohio, so of course I absolutely loved football as soon as I discovered it. I have been a browns fan just as long.. in my 20 years of being alive.. I have seen 2 winning seasons, and 1 playoff spot(which I was what? maybe 5 for?) and somehow.. I still love them. through all of the heartbreak, through all 20 something quarterbacks.. however many coaches.. I still love this team.. it makes me so sad to think and realize that I have only actually gotten to witness a single winning season in my entire life..
Isaiah Jones Steelers fans who like baseball can relate. I was born in April 1993, which was the beginning of 20 consecutive losing seasons for the Pirates. I didn't see a winning season or a playoff series until I was 20 years old. Technically, I have seen 4 winning seasons and 1 playoff series in 18 years of being a fan, which just barely trumps your 2 winning seasons and 1 playoff game lol. Being a fan can be extremely difficult lol.
Damn that cribs play was special
14:09 What a stab. One hand, quick reflex, getting nailed and still holds on to it. What a grab, jesus.
I’d like to think NFL posted this not only because of browns-steelers last week but because of Derek Anderson playing on mnf
That don’t look like no 50 yarder to me😂😂😂
Joe Cribbs was Devin Hester Jr lol so underrated cause he was a Brown
Know what the best part of this is for me? It's the fact that Cleveland has a chance to be truly good again. They kept all the talent from last year and hired a competent head coach. I wouldn't be that suprised if the browns make the playoffs this season. But I'd be very suprised if they were in contention for the AFC North, though.
I love the scoreboard being where it is for people who still hadnt made the transition to hd tvs
I'm just curious why is it that a good majority of Steelers end up with the Jets. Neil O'Donnell Santonio Holmes & L'Veon Bell.
A lot of Steelers go to the Cardinals as well both players and two of the Steelers old offensive coordinators Ken Whisenhunt and Bruce Arians.
When it comes to the jets it’s because of money. When it comes to the cardinals it’s because they’re irrelevant.
Alan Faneca also went to the Jets
Underrated game Big Ben in the clutch 🔥
As a packers fan I was crapping my pants that final drive in 2010
With all the talent they have on both sides of the ball, hopefully one of these years they'll make a playoff run
They did
BROWNS 5-3????????????
I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING
Yea that was there on good year and they went 10-6 but still didn’t make playoffs due to tiebreaker😂
They were eliminated from the playoffs on Week 17 when the Colts rested their starters against the Titans and lost.
Lmfao!!! I remember this season. Alot of those wins were extremely lucky like the one they beat the ravens with that field goal
@@cbehr91 yup and Vince Young got all the credit for leading the titans to the playoffs.
When it's after the NBA playoffs and before the NFL preseason 😢.
Dawson makes that kick in every other jersey. 😭
The year the Browns was 10-6 and didn't make the playoffs. I watched this game. Me and a friend of mine was watching this at her house.
I suspect something like this is gonna happen this season. If there is a season
You were semi right lol
That run from Big Ben was AMAZING 👏
I forgot that Cribbs was a pretty good returner For his time in Cleveland
isnt that rushing TD by ben where he injuried his elbow?
I miss Hines Ward!!!! The BEST ALL around Steelers receiver in history!!!
Wow!! What a game. Big Ben with so, so many clutch 3rd down conversions. The 3rd & 9 late in the 4th in the red zone is just unreal. How many guys juke the MLB like that and pick up the first in the cold mud? When you need it. And the play of the game might’ve been Troy’s tackle at the end. One more yard and that FG is good.
Wow. What. A. Game.
Cribbs had himself a game
That's when Cleveland was at their best, We will take control of our division again...👍
Lol
0:10, Mike Tomlin not wearing a hat :)
As a Steelers fan, Josh cribs is seriously underrated
Only 4 AFC Central Division 1970 through 1993 era Cincinnati Bengals Cleveland Browns Houston Oilers and Pittsburgh Steelers
Josh Cribbs.. holy crap. Are you kidding me with that?
If the browns would’ve kept coach Romeo, they would’ve had a few good teams. Shame lol.
Also, I got so used to Pittsburgh having such a good Offensive line that I forgot that Ben used to have to run for his life 😂😂😂
we've always had good teams it was just coaching and the staff but now we're back
Joshua Cribbs was easily the Brown's best player since their return. He killed the Steelers in nearly every game they played.
Yes, the Browns actually won 10 games in 2007, but didn't make the playoffs in typical Browns luck fashion. The AFC was crowded that year.
If even a single Miami touchdown is scored in that atrocious Pittsburgh-Miami game? That gets Cleveland a home playoff game.
The Steelers can thank Cam Cameron for being an awful coach XD
Awesome game! I forgot how mobile ben used to be 😂
I miss that Ben so much
Browns this year are 3-1 after 4 games and Steelers are 3-0
AFC North is stacked rn
Wow I cant remember how many times Phil Dawson booted it short. This has to be one of the few.
Rams fan here, but I dig the Browns. I like the direction this team is moving in.
Classic Hines Ward game! 💪🏾
Josh Cribbs for HOF
2019 anyone. Go Steelers.
steve clarke here we go
Hard to think that Jim Nantz actually called a browns game
Number 16 for the browns was my boy he ran that bitch back that shit was dope I love these classic brownie games 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
'07 Browns blew that season! They should've beaten the losing Bengals on week 16 and they dropped the ball. Thankfully they are not that bad this year.
Not bad this year?
@@MikeBNumba6 They were decent in 2018
@@phillyeaglesforlife5127 not so much in 2019 though. Hell probably gonna suck in 2020 too.
14:28 the lineman with a little premature celebration
Before this year now 2021 this was the last great browns team
I was at this game......Heinz Field was rocking.
I was literally at this game, best game I ever saw live for sure.
This was during that short blip of time where the Nu Browns were interesting and competitive. I really believe in Baker Mayfield these days so I hope to see them turn it around within a season or two.
BTW everyone raves about FOX but CBS's HD package from the early HD era (and presumably now) is REALLY nice compared to FOX which sometimes looks a bit inferior. I can't quite put my finger on what it is though. CBS seems very smooth compared to their competition.
Pittsburgh. The only place the browns could blow a 21-3 lead with the division lead at stake
What the heck is McFadden (#20) doing at 9:35? He just escorted Cribbs into the end zone! He could have tried knifing in at the last second for the tackle, but he just ran along with the convoy the whole way. What was he thinking!?
Damn good game
Jim Nantz sounds so enthusiastic.
it will be a good game tomorrow
yeah baker mayfield will make sure it won't end in a tie which im sure you can agree with (not saying the browns have a 100% chance to win, but they definitely have a team to beat pittsburgh)
33-18 🙌 go steelers 😇
Big Ben had some speed when he got that td lol.
8:28 .... holy shit! Big Ben used to have some some Speed lmao!
Well he was 25 years old back then
Time for part 2
Wow. Nantz and Simms didn't do many browns games.
Josh cribbs another incredibly talented player that the Browns ruined.
Please do more 07 Browns, its been terrible since then
12:25 would’ve been a drop 10000% percent in the nfl by heath miller league changed a lot
false , they emphasized that sort of play being a catch in today's league ; if the receiver appears to maintains solid possession of the ball throughout the catch , it can slightly touch the ground
So nostalgic
A great reminder of just how long the Steelers special teams have been terrible.
It's gotten better, but yeah 2007 their special teams were bad. Josh Cribbs used to burn the Steelers all the time. Danny Smith has definitely improved the special teams unit.
Ben Roethlisberger was probably very surprised by that run he made for a touchdown, seeing as how he is not a speedster and was probably wondering if any Browns were going to tackle him.
I think my throat and voice box is still messed up to this day And I swear that I have lost years of my life because of this damn stressful Steelers organization❤❤❤
I'd like to take a poll of Browns fans to see if they wish the team had picked Roethlisberger (the hometown boy) instead of Kellen Winslow Jr in the 2004. I mean, they didn't really have a franchise QB then, the Tim Couch experiment had ended, they had I think Kelly Holcomb and an old Jeff Garcia. Kind of the way Steelers nation wishes we'd taken Dan Marino (the hometown boy) in 1983 instead of Gabe Rivera.
Wish I would of seen that live... So siC
gotta love seeing the og steeler team
Man Cleveland loves blowing big leads against the Steelers in big games huh?
Ive never seen the browns play so good, im glad we won though
Ward and Heath...Ben's two safety nets.
Ben just refused to lose that day.
Wait? The Browns used to be good?
hos watching before the playoff game?
Dawson’s 52 yarder falls short for a potential tie game
Aren't the Browns always that short when playing the Steelers?
How did cribs stay in
