I remember # 7 like it was yesterday. The Steelers went down to Jacksonville and laid an egg. I was so pissed that they lost to an expansion team. O’Donnell could have won the game at the end. The Steelers were inside the Red Zone and on forth and a few he scrambled and could have just walked the few yards needed for the first but instead decided to throw it incomplete. One of three games that he lost that year including SBXXX. Don't forget who the last team was to play and beat the old Browns in 95.

You got the question right...but be advised that there is no such thing as "old Browns". They have always been the same Browns. Just different ownership, like just about every other team in the league...except a few.
And FYI, I believe the last team to play and beat the Browns in 1995 was the Bengals if I am not correct.

No it was the Jags. Living in Youngstown I had to go watch the Steelers play their last game at a bar (before Direct TV). The Packers beat the Steelers at the end on what I remember either O'Donnel throwing a bad pass on the last play or Andre Hastings or Yancy Thigpen dropping it in the end zone. I remember watching the Browns between commercials and feeling really bad about losing the team I hated so much.

The Bengals were the final home game of 1995 and the Browns won that game behind Testaverde and Ernest Byner. I have the game on dvd.
I think the last game was the next weekend in Jacksonville and we got waxed pretty handily like we did in most of the games the 2nd half of that horrible season.

Yes, the Browns did win their last home game that year vs. the Bengals
And yea, I recall that the Great Bill Belichick lost both games to a first year expansion team.
Though I thought the question was: who was the last team to beat the Browns at home that year. I don't recall.
Perhaps I will use that question in another trivia?

Here is this week's trivia dealing with the Browns vs. Jags:
Answers:
1. What is the Browns/Jags head to head record all time in the regular season?
Jags have edge 9-4. The series got off to a bad start when big bad BBs team lost 2 games to the first year expansion Jags.
2. The Jags #2 career leading receiver at one time played for the Browns. Who is he?
Keenan McCardell
3. The Browns 4th round pick in the 2004 draft now plays for the Jags. Who is he?
Luke McCown who began this year as the Jags starting QB
4. In their short history, the Jags have met 1 team 4 times in postseason play. What is this team?
The Patriots. Pats have won 3 out of 4 of those postseason meetings.
5. What is the current name of the Jags stadium?
Everbank Field. It was Alltel.....but, in reality it is simply the renovated Gator Bowl.
6. When Jacksonville was granted an expansion team in 1993 what 4 other cities were also up for consideration for expansion?
Charlotte, of course, which was the other city chosen along with Baltimore, St. Louis and Memphis. Of course, each of those other cities ended up "stealing" teams, if you count Memphis and Nashville as one entity (I am sure they do not).
The big loser in the Franchise Musical Chairs that was being played in the mid-90s was ultimately Los Angeles....and the fact of the matter is, apparently, LA didn't care all that much.
7. Against which team did the Jags gain their first home field victory in their inaugural season in 1995?
The Pittsburgh Steelers
8. What is the name of the Jags mascot?
Jaxson De Ville (Why the Jaguars...a team with the same name as a Ford product....Jaguar is owned by Ford, would choose a name reminiscent of a GM product,..the Cadillac DeVille, I don't know. Perhaps because Ford threatened to sue the Jags over the initial Jaguar logo the team had, saying it was too similar to the logo for the Jaguar auto)
9. Who was the Jags defensive coordinator in their inaugural 1995 season?
Dick Jauron
10. Who is the Jags current running backs coach?
Ernest Byner
11. What geographical distinction does the city of Jacksonville hold in the US?
Jacksonville is the city with the largest land mass, with 747 square miles of land, in the CONTINENTAL US. Not the entire US. Several Alaskan cities have more sq. miles including Anchorage, Sitka, Juneau, and Wrangell. Compare Jax to Cleveland which has only 77.6 square miles. Jax is nearly 10 time larger.
12. What significance do the names Terry McCauley, Ryan Slattery, Rob Misso, and Michael Roche have in Browns/Jags history?
Terry McCauley was the inept referee of the Bottlegate game. Slattery, Misso, and Roche are given credit by The Urban Dictionary as being the three fans who threw the first bottles onto the field as a result of that referring disaster.
Bonus: Name at least 2 former Browns personalities that were associated with The Jacksonville Bulls
Lindy Infante was the Head Coach of the Jacksonville Bulls for 2 years, 84/85. The Bulls starting QB under Infante in 1985: Brian Sipe.
Sipe started the 1985 Bulls season at QB (after playing a year for the New Jersey Generals), but only got to throw 89 passes for them when he suffered a career ending injury. The fact is, the Jacksonville Bulls were the last professional football team that Brian Sipe played for.

In regard to the geographic size of NFL cities, here is their rank in terms of size:
1. Jacksonville
2. Houston
3. Phoenix (even though the Cards play in Glendale, I count Phoenix)
4. Nashville
5. Indianapolis
6. Dallas (even though Cowboys play in Arlington)
7. San Diego
8. Kansas City
9. New York City (even though Jets/Giants play in NJ)
10. Charlotte
11. Chicago
12. New Orleans
13. Denver
14. Detroit
15. Philadelphia
16. Atlanta
17. Tampa
18. Seattle
19. Baltimore
20. Cincinnati
21. Cleveland
The NFL cities georgraphically that are smaller than Cleveland include Boston, Buffalo, Oakland, San Francisco, Pittsburgh, St. Louis, Miami, Minneapolis(not counting St. Paul), and Green Bay.
So? Does size matter?

Interesting stat:
While Cleveland is 77.6 square miles, Cuyahoga Co. is 1246 sq. miles. meaning that Cleveland only constitutes a little over 6% of the land mass of the County. I would have thought it was much more than that...more like 25%.
-
It sure looks like it covers more than 6%. I need to check those figures
-
Ah, OK, here is the problem:
Apparently, officially Cuyahoga Co.'s "area" includes the part of Lake Erie that extends all the way out to the Canadian Border. With Lake Erie that gives the Co. the 1246 sq. miles. If you just take the land portion it is only 458 sq. miles., and Cleveland being 77.6 sq. miles it makes up about 17% of Cuyahoga Co.s land mass. That seems more like it.
-
Technically, a map of Cuyahoga County would actually look like this:
-
Bottom line on this is that all of the land portion of Cuyahoga Co. is only 458 sq. miles.
Jacksonville is 747 sq. miles. That is almost like taking Cuyahoga and Summit Co. Combined.
And FYI, the population of Jacksonville is 821,784. The populations of Summit and Cuyahoga counties combined is 1,821,784.

Are you saying that Alaska is not in the North American CONTINENT???????????????????????
