Cleveland Browns are 3-1 for first time since 2001

The Cleveland Browns are 3-1 for the first time since 2001. It should have been easier as they led Dallas 41-14 in the fourth quarter before allowing 24 straight points and making all of Ohio sweat.

Odell Beckham Jr. to the rescue with a 50-yard TD run and the final was 49-38.

How much has changed since the last time Cleveland had that mark after four games?

How about their quarterback in 2001 was one Tim Couch, who led the team to victories over the Lions, Jaguars, and Chargers after a season-opening loss to the Seattle Seahawks.

The quarterbacks the 2001 Browns defeated to get to 3-1 were Ty Detmer, Jonathan Quinn, and Doug Flutie.

George W. Bush was the U.S. President.

The Baltimore Ravens thrashed the New York Giants in the Super Bowl earlier that year.

On Oct. 5, Barry Bonds of the San Francisco Giants broke the single-season home run record, with his 71st and 72nd home runs of the year.
