1978 Pittsburgh Steelers vs. 1964 Cleveland Browns ⢠Full Game Simulation / As we dive into this full game simulation, we're looking at a classic matchup between the 1978 Pittsburgh Steelers and the 1964 Cleveland Browns. The '78 Steelers, led by Terry Bradshaw, were in the midst of their golden era, having won Super Bowl XIII that season, their third Super Bowl in five years. They were known for their powerful "Steel Curtain" defense and a balanced offense. On the other side, the '64 Browns were the last Cleveland team to win an NFL Championship, led by the legendary Jim Brown, who was arguably the best running back of his time. The '64 Browns were also known for their strong defense, which had three shutouts that season. The game promises to be a battle of defenses and a duel between two of the most iconic franchises in NFL history.
