A ticket for the AFC Championship game between the Browns and the Broncos.

The1987 Cleveland Browns season was the team's 38th season in theNational Football League.

Led by another 3,000-yard season fromBernie Kosar, the Browns captured their third-straight AFC Central crown. In the divisional playoffs, against theIndianapolis Colts at Municipal Stadium, the Browns routed the Colts 38–21 to advance to their second-straight AFC Championship game. For the second year in a row, the Browns were matched up against theDenver Broncos for a trip toSuper Bowl XXII. The Browns fell behind early atMile High Stadium, as the Broncos roared out to a big halftime lead. However, the Browns scored 30 points in the second half, and drove down the field in the late fourth quarter with a chance to score a game-tying touchdown. With 1:12 left in the game, RBEarnest Byner was stripped of the ball at the 2-yard line by Broncos' defensive backJeremiah Castille in a play since dubbedThe Fumble. Denver ran down the clock and took an intentional safety with 8 seconds left, and the Browns fell 38–33. Denver returned to theSuper Bowl for a second straight year at the expense of the Browns.
