The Cleveland Browns are in the playoffs. First time since 2002, in the midst of the last SARS outbreak (SARS-CoV-1). The Browns made the playoffs as a six-seed and played a third-seeded Steelers team at Heinz Field. In 2002, Cleveland hopped out to a 24-7 lead and led 33-21 in the fourth quarter but cratered at the end to lose 36-33. Tampa Bay ultimately beat the AFC West Champion in Super Bowl XXXVII. The last time Cleveland won a playoff game? In 1994, during the plague outbreak in India and the Ebola outbreak in Gabon (mistakenly identified as a yellow fever outbreak at the time). The Browns' 1994 season ended in a 20-point loss at Heinz Field on NBC. The last time Cleveland won a playoff game outside of Cleveland? 1969, during the 1968-1970 Hong Kong Flu Pandemic (H3N2). The Browns beat the Cowboys in the Cotton Bowl in the NFL Playoffs. Cleveland would ultimately lose to Minnesota in the NFL Championship Game. The Chiefs beat the Vikings in Super Bowl IV. Cleveland is 0-8 in road playoff games since 1969 and 4-4 in Cleveland. Go Steven Nelson! Go Steelers! |
