Jamal Lewis has broken the Browns team record for most rushing yards in a game. He has 207 yards with 3:39 remaining in today's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. The old record was just 161, set by Earnest Byner in 1986 against the Miami Dolphins. Amazing.

Didn't he have the record for the Ravens, too.

Correction: one link at the Cleveland Browns website has the above Byner record, but another one has a 188 yard game by Byner in 1984 against the Oilers. Anyway you look at it, it's a team record, and Lewis is the first Browns player to go over 200 yards rushing in a single game.

Yep, in 2003, he set the NFL rushing record with 295 yards. That record still stands, right? No one's gone over 300 yet?

Thats a lot of yards..

Final line for Lewis in this one: 27 carries, 216 yards, 8.0 average, 1 TD. Impressive.

Yes, that record still stands. He got it against the Browns that year. If I recall, the Browns gave up over 500 yards rushing to him that year in their 2 games. I see why they wanted to sign him as a free agent. he kills them.

Don't the Browns keep the history of the old Browns?...and the Ravens the new?...I thought that was the deal...isn't Lewis going against the old records held by Jim Brown etc?

I'm so confused right now... I'm seeing all sorts of different records. Heck, the Browns own websites list two different ones.

How many 200 yards games did Brown have, Goth?

[legend]

Of the top ten all-time rushing seasons, brown is at number ten, but his 6.4 yards per carry is the most of anyone on the list. However, I don't know if he ever went over 200 yards in a single game.

of course he did:

On Nov. 24, 1957, in just the ninth game of his rookie season with the Browns, he set a league rushing record by carrying 31 times for 237 yards, an average of 7.6 yards per attempt, and four touchdowns in a 45-31 victory over the Los Angeles Rams at Cleveland Stadium.

You know what? The Browns record-keeping stinks.

So I guess this isn't a team record, then. But, what is the REAL single-game Browns rushing record?

You know what? If you have Jamal Lewis in fantasy, this is the day you try to trade him. They only play the Bengals one more time.

My thoughts exactly!...his value will never be higher than it is right now...
