Good game. Good broadcast / recording. Thank you for your efforts. May you and yours stay well and prosper.

[@insanelionfanify]

You are the beyond awesome!! I’m putting some beers on ice and watching this one after work!

[@danielboom72]

Amazing clarity on this picture bro! 1983? Are you serious? My dude! What a trip down memory lane. One of the few times that the Lions were on NBC

[@TheDeppening]

SUPER cool and unique upload as usual, kind sir!! As I am a huge Billy Sims - and love the Browns -- this is a double-edged A+ NFl upload in imho! I don't think I've ever seen this one on YT ever???

[@BlazeOfGlory742]

Thank you so much for these uploads. Memories as a kid in Philadelphia. GO BIRDS!

[@shanetrimble9265]

Cleveland’s first visit to the Silverdome

[@JIMOTOOLE1949]

And the Browns' first regular-season victory over the Lions on the road ever.

[@3243_]

Actually, Cleveland's first trip to the Silverdome was in its first year, 1975.

Dick Enberg commentary on Howard Cosell 0:08

[@AVH-z9m]

Just goes to show that Cancel Culture existed even way back in '83. Howard, technically, didn't get fired over the comment, but ABC didn't renew him for '84.

Jfc that was tough, watching Dick Enberg justify racism....yikes

Len Berman with a spectacular rug on there.

[@greglbennett]

I know Matthew Stafford is the best QB in Lions history and Jared Goff led them to a couple of playoff wins thanks to the team finally having All-Pro pass protection, but Eric Hipple is still my favorite Lions QB ever. I know it's nostalgia talking, because he wasn't that good. But I don't care.

[@ricenglish4556]

Hipple had a great arm, but some accuracy issues. The Lions were a running team, but with speedy Leonard Thompson, Hipple could have thrown him a lot of long bombs. Monte Clark wanted to run the ball and with Simms, he had a reason.

[@ahoneanatwo]

2:15 Len Berman with a timely reference to John Elway involving a certain popular 1983 hit single by Sting, Stewart Copeland and Andy Summers......

[@marvinkey7440]

Another game we didn't see because of black out, thank you! And can you put the 1981 Dallas Cowboys at detroit lions on here?

[@ricenglish4556]

If there was ever a faster guy than Leonard Thompson, I never saw him. His blinding 4.3 speed was not utilized as much as it should have been. The Lions were a running team.

[@patchy938]

I remember my mom talking to my Aunt in Detroit during this game and my aunt said it was being blacked out in Detroit.

[@colorman4490]

A rare win for the Browns against the Lions. The Browns worst win percentage against all other NFL teams is vs the Lions. .238 win %.

Do you have the 1983 game between the Chargers and Giants?
