Lest I should out-date any of you neophyte readers at Predominantly Orange, there was a time in the late 1980’s where the Denver Broncos and Cleveland Browns ruled the AFC and vied for conference supremacy, even meeting in the AFC Championship game three times in four seasons (1986, 1987 and 1989).
It is in the Broncos-Browns championship series where such staples of NFL lore as The Drive and The Fumble occurred, with the Broncos coming out victorious in either situation.
In fact, the Broncos lead the all-time series against the Browns 22-5 and have won 10 straight in the series with the last loss to Cleveland coming in 1990 when Jerry Kauric made a field goal in the closing seconds for a 30-29 Browns win on a Monday Night broadcast at the old Mile High Stadium.
