Browns Beat Chargers to Avoid 0-16 Season: Score, Highlights and Top Reaction

For the first time in more than a year, the Cleveland Browns have won a regular-season football game.

Josh Lambo missed a potential game-tying field goal as time expired, helping the previously 0-14 Browns earn a 20-17 victory over the San Diego Chargers.

The Browns' Twitter account needed only one letter to celebrate the win:

The 2008 Detroit Lions will now remain the only team in NFL history to finish 0-16.

Bleacher Report's Cian Fahey gave his thoughts on the result:

Hue Jackson deserves this. So happy for him.

While Cleveland allowed nine total sacks, Robert Griffin III did his job at quarterback with 164 passing yards and no turnovers.
