The Cleveland Browns are headed back to the playoffs after a 37-20 win over the New York Jets. And the players, led by tight end David Njoku and cornerback Martin Emerson Jr. were leading the charge of the celebration in Cleveland Browns Stadium after the game.
The atmosphere off of the coast of Lake Erie was on fire as the Browns blew the doors off of the building from the opening kickoff. They scored 34 first half points, which was enough for them to sit back and play defense in the second half against one of the worst offenses in the NFL. Now with ten days until their Week 18 matchup, the Browns have a chance to make it 12 wins on the season as they travel to take on the Cincinnati Bengals.
Oh yeah, and the AFC North crown is not completely off the table yet either.
Here are the best reactions, both from the stadium and on social media, from the players after winning their 11th game and clinching their spot in the playoffs.
#Browns DC Jim Schwartz ran across the field to tell Za'Darius Smith to do a lap around the stadium to celebrate with fans after the playoff-clinching win.
He was more than happy to. pic.twitter.com/Xprqriw4Vv
