Cleveland Browns: Fans rejoice on social media after playoff victory vs. Steelers

The Cleveland Browns won a playoff game.

That seemed like an impossible dream just three seasons ago when the Browns were 0-16. However, they beat the PIttsburgh Steelers 48-37 on Sunday night to advance to the divisional round where they will play the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs. It was Cleveland’s first playoff victory since Jan. 1, 1995.

The Browns will be underdogs against the Chiefs, but they were underdogs against the Steelers and built a 28-0 first-quarter lead and then held on as the Steelers rallied in the second half. Here’s how people on social media reacted:

There is no way the Browns should have won. No coach. No practices. Backup OL off the street. Players on Covid list. In their personal house of horrors against a QB that dominated them.

These are NOT the same old Browns.

These Browns are playoff winners.

The Browns win their first playoff game since January 1, 1995. The Bengals last playoff win was January 6, 1991. Cincinnati has to be up next, right?

Cleveland Browns last playoff win was New Year’s Day 1995. Belichick’s Browns beat parcells/Bledsoe Pats. I was there

I was 10 years old the last time the Browns won a playoff game. January 1, 1995. I was in the stadium...with chicken pox. My mom wrapped me in Browns scarves and a down jacket. It's irrational but a family FaceTime postgame made me extra emotional tonight. So special.

1995.. I was a sophomore in high school. 25 years ago. That was the last time the #Browns won a playoff game...until tonight. You deserve this Browns fans!

Hue Jackson could jump in the lake and have his shorts fall off a hundred times, but the only way the Browns were going to end this era was to actually end the Ben era themselves. And now they have.

Congratulations to the @Browns
Last playoff win 1994!!!
Last playoff win on the road?...1969 at Dallas!! Crazy. As passionate and deserving fan base that exists. This coming from a Bengals fan most my life.

For the first time in my life, I get to call my dad after a #Browns game and talk about a Playoff victory.

That’s awesome, and it’s why we gut it out with this team and franchise.

Fired up for my fellow fans everywhere. What a night. pic.twitter.com/7d2PnNwCTU
