Vintage Browns: 1980 Browns Walkoff winning drive vs Packers

one of the greatest comebacks in Brown's history, this 9 minute video is a "can't miss" for anybody who loved the Kardiac Kids. On the last play, the famous 46 yard touchdown pass from Sipe to Logan, watch Sipe carefully. As he comes to the line of scrimmage, he notes that the Packers are coming with a maximum blitz. Sipe then simply uses his head to look at Logan and motion for Logan to "go long". This unbelieveable sequence is a play that probably couldn't occur in the modern era because Sipe and Logan had so many years playing together they could communicate at this level but with today's free agency schemes, it's very rare that a QB and his receivers are able to work together for the years needed to develop this kind of feeling.

Vintage Browns: 1979 OT win vs Jets

This 3 play sequence in 1979 vs the New York Jets is fun to watch. With only 34 seconds left on the clock in OT and the Jets with the ball on 3rd down in their own territory, the game is almost over and it seems that the best the Browns can hope for is a tie but in a matter of a few seconds, everything changes:

1. A terrible pass by the Jet's Matt Robinson is intercepted by Oliver Davis who makes a nice return.
2. A calm and cool Brian Sipe steps up and hits Dave Logan at the Jets 10
3. Don Cockroft punches the ball through the uprights for the game winning field goal
