There is no better sports fan than a Cleveland fan! Simply the best and I'm a New Yorker, we have those fairweather fans! Beautiful stuff Eric & his fans!

1:40 "25 or 30 bucks for a ticket." Ahhhh... the good old days.

This is truly one of the most special things to ever happen in the NFL. Eric Metcalf was a beast! The sound of those Cleveland fans roaring, it's spectacular.

These were the real glory days of the NFL... fans real close to the field... less suits on the sidelines... the age of great TV announcers... less polished product... made it feel like I was there.

Can NEVER forget those punt returns for TD's. Metcalfe was incredible.

I was there. The girl that I had been dating bought the tickets before we broke up. She had great class and decided that we should still go. We were not disappointed. Thanks Eric! Thanks Stacy! What a great day.

i'm a browns fan from california. i never have stepped foot in ohio. my family is from cuba, my two older brothers were born in miami, but i was born and raised in california. my brothers used to tell me all of the time that i had to be a dolphins fan, but i didn't like the idea of someone telling me what to do. So in 1985 the browns were playing the dolphins in the playoff and were up 21-3 at the half; it was easy to cheer on the browns to my brothers' dismay. needless to say, the dolphins came back and won 24-21 and I never have given up on the browns. it has been a rough few years as a browns fan....

2020 and still getting cold chills from this clip! I remember when it happened, I was only 13 and the family was going nuts all huddled around the front room TV!

I remember where I was. I was on vacation in Oregon. My buds and I were watching thee game at a bar called The Cooler, in Eugene. My buddy "Stubby" threw his pool stick in excitement. That moment is even more special to remember now, as my friend "Stubby" has since died. God bless Stubby.

man these were good times in cleveland i sure do miss them

I am not from Cleveland. Not a fan of the Browns. However, THIS original version of the Browns and its fan base is one of the reasons why I came to love this game of football. What Modell did to the city and the generations of fans will never be repaired even with that expansion version that has a different fan base and no connection to the history of that city. If this new version wants to be a winner again, it's got to connect with the history of the city and its roots, not just the football history.

Browns stadium used to be so loud!!!!!!!

I will never forget this game, I was at the jan sobieskie club in Kulpmont pa. I was with a dozen steelers fans and myself the loan Browns fan. It was great to drink beer and watch the Browns win one against the hated steelers. It was an owsome day for Eric and one of the most memorable games in my life thanks to him. Boy I miss winning, I love the Browns but it's been to long now and what we did to our classic great uniforms is a shame. You know when you have a good thing like grand moms cooking or moms home made apple pie you don't mess with it, and that's what the Browns uniforms were. Timeless, tradition , a symbol of the past , a winning recipe , they were ageless and loved ,to change them is a sin.

I was at this game. When Metcalf took the second one to the house I just sat and cried I was so happy!

I still remember watching this game on TV when I was 14.

The 2nd return is probably my all-time favorite football highlight. Eric Metcalf was fun to watch.

Just got back today from Rock City Tap House In Parma Ohio on state rd. MET ERIC METCALF!!! He was there to celebrate the home opener today and they will have a browns player every week for this season! He was my hero growing up! He signed a card for me when I was 10 at training camp 1993! He was slick, fast, and so elusive! All Browns fans give a bark to this king DAWG!!! Hung out at his table for four hours watching games with him with my kids was priceless!

He might not be HOF but dude was pure speed and could return like no other.

Great call on the 2nd return by Tom Hammond of NBC

I remember watching this on Tv when I was 13. Great memories!!!

Listen to how the crowd sounded in those days.

Watching this video gives me chills, I was born in 84 and was 9 years old when this happened and I remember watching it like it was yesterday. Listen to how loud that stadium is!! UNBELIEVABLE! The only time I've ever heard it that loud was in the new stadium was during the Jaguars bottlegate game. I used to set up imaginary defenders (pillow cushions, and other household obstacles) and run through my parents basement pretending I was Eric Metcalf lol! Been rough since we've been back but things are lookin good with the stooges out as long as they don't draft Manziel we'll be in good shape.

Pandemonium Palace as it was called. It was unreal at that place growing up.

I was there in 1993 ! Awesome game and yes Cleveland was rocking back then! I love football !

got chills from the play by play on the second one...dude was a beast...t

Great returns but what really made me fall out the chair was when Collinsworth referred to people not having a problem paying the $25-$35 for tickets to watch Metcalf. I was like, "damn, tickets use to be that cheap? I'd buy season tickets for those prices!"

I miss Metcalf. One of my all-time favorite football players.

I remember this day well. On the second punt return I was jumping up and down with joy when I landed on one of my kids toys and broke my ankle. Good memories...

Bill Cowher never punted to Metcalf after that game. It was always a punt out of bounds.

I think that's the most excited Tom Hammond has ever been in his life lol

you see on the first punt.....he stutter steps around the 40 yard line at 11 sec...2 Steelers in front of him...#21 for Pittsburgh is almost 5 yards ahead of him with an angle...and all ofthe sudden he blows right by him ....scary scary speed

when I was a kid and teenager I ran super fast... and any time I played football I would always say "here goes Metcalf"

25 years ago today. 10/24/1993.

Metcalf, Eric Allen, Deion...it's something about #21

I was at that game, and it was the most special moment I have ever experienced in sports.

From 2:39 - 3:55, Hammond and Collinsworth didn't utter a word, letting the cheering and celebrating do the talking. The mark of great announcing.

I'm sitting here it's 2023 and this still brings joy to my heart. Go Browns!

I was at this game and Metcalf was amazing to watch in this game. Browns fans are incredibly loyal fans and show tremendous support for their team. They did get screwed over by Modell and have suffered with terrible teams since the NFL returned to Cleveland. They are finally looking like a solid team this year and are actually competitive. I hope the best for them their fans deserve it.

Tecmo Bowl LEGEND

Man those unis were so sweet!

I remember watching that game. About every five years I go back and watch the highlights again. I think I am going to get a number 21 Eric Metcalf Jersey made

greatest weekend of my life...was at game 6 of bluejays/phillies world series the night before, and was at this game.....will never forget them!

the fans at 2:51 are just delirious. I was there, never forget it.

And no penalties on either play. Unbelievable.

On so many of these TD returns (see some other Metcalf videos) you see Eric Turner throwing big blocks. He was their big-hittin-house-wreckin' strong safety. I wonder what would happen if teams got back to this tactic, and threw some studs on the punt return team.

These are classic moments in Cleveland Browns history without a doubt!!!! The Browns teams of the 90's were one play away from going to Super Bowl in the two Denver games. I will never forget the agony of watching Ernest Byner put the ball on the ground up in Denver or the miracle comeback by Elway and Denver in Cleveland. It just seems like that dark cloud always hovers over C-town. Looking forward to the day Cleveland can celebrate a World Series, Super Bowl, and or NBA title.

I’ve watched this 1,000 times still gives me Chill!!

I remember watching this game as a kid live on tv. Still just as exciting to watch, thanks for sharing!

Remember watching this on TV. Great regular season game.

As a diehard Browns fan, I remember watching this game when I was 13 years old.

“Metcalf cuts back… he’s still on his feet… Metcalf will go… for the score!!!… UNBELIEVABLE!!!” - One of Tom Hammond’s best calls

I remember watching this game on tv,I think it one of the top five returns of all time.

The second TD play by play call was awesome,chills.

The Browns need to bring these uniforms back.

Gives me chills as a kid i was nine years old in Cleveland!

I had season tickets in the Dawg Pound (we sat in the same seats starting in 1984 until they left in '95). I remember this one especially because Metcalf was on my fantasy team, and I didn't start him. My buddies sitting around me spent the entire ride home ragging on me, LOL. I haven't seen a game in person since 1995, when we tore out our bench and brought it home with us (one of my friends still has it in his "man cave"). I doubt if I'll ever go see them in person again....

Eric Metcalf was awesome...I remember watching his father Terry. They played very much alike. I think Terry was a little better RB but Eric the better return man. Both were fun to watch and could be unstoppable.

Being a fan for over 30yrs now this right here was great to see once again the especially seeing the Browns beat the Steelers. which does not happen very often today. I miss the old Browns.

Sounds like Chris Collinsworth was the color announcer of this game...

Metcalf was dynamic!

This legit made me cry. In the best way possible. Glad I found this. Metcalf was the reason I wore #21. Go browns!

One of my greatest sports moments in my life ever

Man I use to love the Browns vs Broncos..the Byner fumble was just hard to watch..they could have played the Redskins in that Super Bowl..I'am a skins fan and I so wanted to play Cleveland..they just had fans like the Redskins do..they love their team and I have a soft spot for Cleveland..I wanted them to win in the AFC and show that that little team could do it. I hope you guys get it all put right one day..as I hope my redskins can.

One of the most memorable punt returns ever because it had a little bit of everything, from Metcalf shifting and making his moves, to the fans, being late in the game, down, the Cle-Pit rivalry, Eric taking home 2 that day with the last being the game winner. Yeah, to me, from a kid to now I always remembered this game. NFL Primetime saved this game for last that night…good ole memories..

As a lifelong Steeler fan, I was there. That was my first pro game attended. Good memories, had a chance to meet many Steeler players.

that guy was so good.

That was awesome to watch!

My absolute favorite all time Browns player. He was as gifted as they come and had moves nobody else had in the NFL. Awesome.

This was the last we saw of the REAL Cleveland Browns--awesomely grungy and atmospheric Municipal Stadium, real grass and dirt, loudest most passionate crowds in the entire sport, the true Dawg Pound, this was the real thing. All this nonsense we've seen from this boring corporate "new" version is nothing but a disappointing misguided shell of what the Browns were meant to be.

I told my friend. On the day this game was played. Metcalf is special. I said. He's the best return man going. They better not kick it to him. So after the frist touchdown. I told my friend. He will do it again. If they kick it to him. Again. And sure enough. Metcalf did. Oh how I loved seeing him. Crush the damn Steelers. One of my favorite players. Of all time.

I remember watching this live on tv in redford michigan, 8 yrs old

Ran into Metcalf at Legacy village a few days ago and reminded him of this.

Unbelievable moment!! Metcalf was the best and nothing better than doing it against Pittspuke! Also pour one out for Eric Turner! RIP!

I've watched this prob 100+ times over the years and get chills everytime

I remember that game like it was yesterday. I was 12 yrs old.

I remember when this happened..I was PISSED..I was winning my football pool until Metcalf took that 2nd punt back..Cost me 210 dollars....Love me some Eric Metcalf tho...man was a beast..flat out

How could Modell move the team. This is the real Browns. Not some expansion team with silly goofy uniforms. Cleveland had the BEST football fans in the NFL. I remember this game vividly. Cowher looked like he ate his tongue!

Sensational talent!

I watched Eric when I was in elementary and I always were #2 because of him..?Then I went to UT it was awesome,

God I LOVED that place. One of my greatest memories. Ever.

Grew up an Oilers Fan near Houston. Much Love to the Real Browns and their hell-raising fans... We had a hell of a division.

Eric you look like your dad when he played in st louis,mo!

Great Stadium too. WHY would you ever leave a stadium like this, with these kinds of fans?

Those were the days. Just watching this again I can just smell the Fall air and the hotdogs and in that Dawg pound back then... man there was nothing better ❤

I remember watching this game at my uncles house. One of my few good Browns vs. Steelers memories.

I remember this game my father went crazy in Youngstown, Ohio watching this lol

The stadium absolutely erupted on that second return

Ahhhh,...the good ol' days. Here's to building the next set of great memories, starting with the draft this year!

Metcalf up the middle!

Im a bengals fan but hearing the crowd erupt as he went in for score #2 gave me the chills

I remember watching this game.

Still gives me goosebumps. Never could understand why you wouldnt kick it out of bounds with him back there.

I traveled from Pinehurst NC to the Muni for this game ... it was my 2 sons 1st Browns game !!

That's crazy I remember watchin that game. ..so long ago

I was at the San Diego game in 1991 where the Browns won in OT on David Brandon's int return, and it's my favorite win that I got to see in real time. My all time fav, however, was against the Cowboys in 1994. Couldn't see it live because I was stuck in an all-day rehearsal for a play I was in, and it was a Saturday game rather than a Sunday. End of the year schedule and all.

One of my favorite players of all time Eric metcalf! 🙌🏾

One of the greatest things about this footage is the commentators not saying a word for over a minute after the second touchdown. They just let the pictures do all the talking. Can you imagine that in any sport today?

I was at this game!

I could have sworn that there was a ground level camera capturing this. That's how I remember it at least when I watched this.

I was there. It was incredible!
