Flacco Fever was at full speed as the Browns opened this season’s NFL Playoffs on the road against the Houston Texans — a team they defeated during the regular season just a few weeks ago.

Downtown establishments, all set to cash in as Tenga and DIRECTV settled their dispute just hours before kickoff, were soon filled to capacity.

Early enthusiasm and exuberance would start to wane towards halftime and eventually evaporate within the first few moments of the 3rd quarter as the contest headed into a blowout.

Kudos to the team for making it this far despite numerous adversities. There’s always next year.
