added January 6th, 2018: The Cleveland Browns first team lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers second stringers. A parade to celebrate the Cleveland Browns perfect season took place today. Check out the images, etc. In the last two seasons, the Browns have posted a 1-31 record. The Browns & the 2008 Detroit Lions are the only teams in NFL history to finish a season 0-16. The Browns set the record for the worst 28-game stretch in NFL history [1-27], besting the 2-26 record of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers during the 1976-1977 seasons. The Browns have gone 4-49 in their previous 53 games; this is simply dismal.
