When parents that grew up in the eighties and nineties talk about their memories of the Cleveland Browns, it’s filled with awe-inspiring players and tales. Names like Bernie Kosar, Eric Metcalf, Earnest Byner, Ozzie Newsome, Brian Sipe, and Greg and Mike Pruitt flow from their mouths as they talk about multiple winning seasons and a jam-packed Municipal Stadium.
Fans that have grown up in the 2000’s do not have that luxury.
Instead, the 2000’s will be remembered for a daunting quarterback list of many failed experiments, blown draft selections, and dozens of coaching changes.
Today cemented the misery that this generation will forever be remembered by, as the Browns became only the second team in the history of the NFL to go 0-16 in the regular season.
