Three games on Thursday, one on Friday, a whole slate of games on Sunday, and, finally, week 13 football comes to Broncos Country. The Browns square off against the Denver Broncos on a Monday night tilt to round out the Thanksgiving week of games.
Younger fans will scratch their heads as to why the older generations get so amped for Broncos-Browns. Once upon a time, there wasn’t a more heated rivalry than Cleveland-Denver. In back-to-back years, 1986 and 1987, John Elway’s Broncos vanquished the Browns in legendary AFC Championship games. They went on to whoop them in yet another AFC Championship in the 1989 season.
