2009 Browns @ Lions

[@DirtyBeefCurtains]

Haha I remember this game! Refused to watch the lions after the 0-16 season, but would always stop and watch juuuuust a little of each game. Seeing Stafford and Calvin Johnson along with Jim Schwartz actually gave me hope, and this game was flat out incredible.

[@atoz4399]

Just like being a paper-bag fan of the Saints in the day. Didn't want no one to know your watching so you cover your face, but poke out two holes just encase something good happens.

[@MatthewPiper-dv2uz]

Yep. Sometimes a contest between a pair of bad teams is just as entertaining as a showdown between 2 good teams.

[@PipeGuy64Bit]

The best game no one watched.

[@geminiman7791]

Actually it was on thanksgiving, so a lot of people were.

[@PipeGuy64Bit]

It was the Sunday before Thanksgiving actually if you take note of how there were other games going on during this game. Also I believe the NFL blackout rules caused this game to not air for the local market for the Detroit Lions because the rules stated, "...that a home game cannot be televised in the team's local market if all tickets are not sold out 72 hours prior to its start time" and due to the Lions' record at the time (especially since they came off of a 0-16 record the season prior) and the fact they are playing a team that are just as bad as them, I doubt the tickets were all sold. Though since 2015 the blackout rules have been suspended.

[@geminiman7791]

ur right, mb

[@noahkdkdkd8934]

@PipeGuy64Bit Wait, what if two teams played each other and both their local stations blacked out the game due to bad ticket sales, then is it even possible to retrieve that game?

[@FiendishDr_Wu]

Noah kdkdkd He’s right it was not on Thanksgiving but the game was not blacked out. It aired live

[@RealJackHQ]

This game was awesome! I still remember almost leaving, but I decided to watch some more. I was just shocked and so pumped when we got that PI call in our favor. Then, the touchdown was just... WOW.

[@Monaayy29]

For a game between two bad teams that year it was very entertaining

[@mariofan794]

I think a game between two really bad teams can sometimes be as entertaining to watch as a game between two really good teams. Like just this year, Dolphins-Chargers, the Giants-Buccaneers game, Colts-Bengals, and Jets-Dolphins (in Miami) were all some pretty fun games to watch.

[@kdsburneraccount7476]

You the GOAT for posting this. Been looking for it for a long time.

[@jakegiroux5744]

A battle of 1-8 teams ended up in a high scoring constant. That was a good game!

[@dreed9838]

And Stafford made NFL history being the first rookie to throw 5 TDs

[@pretorious700]

Another meaningless stat.

[@WalterWhiteFootballSharing]

Thanks for HD version; when I switch from College to NFL recorded games in a week; this game is #1. Because I watch and rewind so closely; I can't go back to college once I start watching Pro. Two 1-8 teams; I'll notice right away within the 1st series how much better everyone on the field here is compared to the 2019 Oklahoma @ Baylor game Im about to press play on.

[@gorrow1990]

Browns just seem to find a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

[@nate61]

I am so happy to see this game this is the start of the Stafford Legend as we know it the first of his 30+ comebacks wins in the fourth quarter for the LIons

[@rock1724]

Idk how this is allowed on here but dope.

[@traviskernin2043]

I dont care what anyone says this was the greatest NFL game in history

[@WalterWhiteFootballSharing]

28:40 This is why you don't blitz 3 and drop only 4 into coverage. Esp if you're the Lions; whose corners seem to bite on every fake; forget there's NOBODY behind you; it's single high or ZERO safeties all game. I love this game!

[@noahkdkdkd8934]

Hey man do you have Saints-Panthers 30-27 game along with the Saints-Jaguar 23-10 game, Miami-Oakland 34-14, and Bears-Chiefs 10-3 game? I am going on a 2011 spree since that was one of my favorite years inside and outside of football. Thanks.

[@leannwoodley2427]

Go Cleveland Browns they are 5-7 (back in 2009 1- 9) i was around back in 2009 & i was Born in 2002

[@PredatorKingdom]

This was the best NFL game in history that nobody outside of Ohio or Sunday Ticket was able to see live. Brady Quinn could've been nice in the NFL on a better team. Jim Schwartz, Calvin Johnson, and Matthew Stafford finally got the Lions out of the dark ages of the 2000s with Matt Millen. Lions should've never fired Schwartz in 2013 he was getting them closer and closer to a Super Bowl every season.

[@nickdarr7328]

One announcer said Clint Avril instead of Cliff. That's awesome seeing Mack and Stafford as rookies. I'm a lions fan but live in Ohio so remember this game. My dad decided to do yard work instead of watch it

[@luckyluke7530]

2:31:00 awful announcing “they did it.... the lions did it.....” I’ve heard more enthusiasm at a funeral speech

[@mrwoods22]

They always give the shitty announcers the shitty matchups.

[@PipeGuy64Bit]

At least we have the radio announcers that make up for these moments.

[@WalterWhiteFootballSharing]

Finally put the game on; after 5 months of watching 70 or so college games. WOW. Everyone is so good. I knew I had to start with the worst 2 teams. But it's so crazy how every NFL team ran the same offenses; old NFL is like watching Wisconsin, Stanford, Notre Dame, and like, 2012 SEC play eachother over and over and over. If you don't know CFB you think the schemes of old NFL is the 'right' way. And everyone else is doing 'gimmicks'. "It's a different game" Says people who don't watch it. It's the same game. Same rules. They just had coaches with the courage to invent ways of winning in an unfair system. NFL has the same shot at talent; it's fair as can be. So why run schemes that depend on being better then the opponent at every position?

[@timn4257]

I was at this game. We were surrounded by Browns fans who were talking a lot of trash. After the final score, I thought about rubbing it in but they looked so completely defeated that I couldn't do it. Plus, they had to drive all the way back to Cleveland while they sobered up lol

[@jrjcarl]

[@dannyagundez9639]

Nice TD catch by Massaquoi.

[@Fireyninjadog]

Don criqui is the greatest

[@babyfir77]

That sure was an interesting play call, second to last offensive play by the Browns before halftime. Guess they were trying to get a TD. At least that is way better than this season (2017) in which the Browns went for a quarterback sneak from the two yard line, failed and the clock ran out so they got no points on that last drive before halftime!!! Very questionable call.

[@Erik-qp1sw]

Kevin Smith was a beast. Idk what happened to him

[@luckyconquerortv5748]

Injuries and personal issues.

[@enlightenedwarrior7119]

24:12 The 2009 Browns as of week 11; scored only 8.7 Points PER GAME!! Brutal! www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/cle/2009.htm Leave it to the lions, to make me admire this Iformation play action offense; like wow, so effective! The Lions D; they're blitzing every single down because Schwartz hates his Front 4. This works; to force incompletes, while also leading to 70 yard TD's on play action. The secondary couldn't cover on a play with only TWO targets. Love ya Lions.

Shane Carpenter yes but there a time-out the injured player can come in so not out for 1 play

[@shanecarpenter7776]

@@ninjatim7142 I think it was a timeout because of the injury but they had no timeouts which is a run off of time and again it's a weird situation cuz of the defensive penalty, I'm curious if it was partly cuz the penalty, is that the case?
