Answer: Butch Davis

Davis left the University of Miami after their successful 2000-2001 season. He led the Browns to an improved 7-9 record in the 2001-2002 season, but he might have wanted to stay at Miami another year, as they went on to go undefeated and win the NCAA Championship.

Answer: William Green

Green, a big strong running back from Boston College had a little trouble adjusting to the NFL at first, but he finished his rookie season on a strong note and he gives the Browns hope that a decent running attack will develop.

Answer: Jacksonville

The Browns lost that game to the Jaguars, officially eliminating them from playoff contention. The fans threw plastic beer bottles and other debris onto the field to protest a controversial instant replay decision involving a fourth-down pass to Quincy Morgan.

Originally ruled a catch, the officials reviewed the play after another play had already been run, an unprecedented and obviously much-debated decision. The catch was overturned and the game was won by the Jags.

Answer: Kansas City

The Chiefs won the game 40-39 on a field goal. Linebacker Dwayne Rudd pulled off his helmet during the last play of the game, resulting in a penalty which allowed the Chiefs to get in range for the game-winning field goal.

Answer: Quincy Morgan

In another crucial play reviewed by officials, Morgan was this time ruled to have made the acrobatic catch in the end zone, sealing the improbable win for the Browns.

Answer: Atlanta

The Browns defeated the Falcons in a hard-fought game in Cleveland Browns Stadium. They were led by William Green, who finally had his "breakout" game rushing the football. The game was not without cost, however, as starting QB Tim Couch suffered a broken leg and was lost for the playoffs.

Answer: Pittsburgh

The Browns faced off against their hated rivals the Steelers at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh. Led by backup QB Kelly Holcolmb, the Browns fell just short, as they were victim of a late comeback by Tommy Maddox and the Steelers. Holcolmb's gutsy performance, in which he had the 3rd-highest passing yardage in playoff history, fueled an already prominent quarterback controversy for the 2003-2004 season.
