Last time the Cleveland Browns went to the Super Bowl

Although the Cleveland Browns won multiple NFL championships in the 1950s and 1960s, the Ohio team has never been to a Super Bowl! To put it bluntly, the Browns did not really have a good season in 2022. It marked the second year in a row that they did not qualify for the playoffs.

Last time the Philadelphia Eagles went to the Super Bowl

As for the Philadelphia Eagles, however, they’ve been playing very well in recent years. The Philly team made it to the Super Bowl for the 2022 season in Feb. 2023, losing to the Kansas City Chiefs 35-38. It was a close game, and all eyes have been on quarterback Jalen Hurts. Unfortunately for their fans, they ended up losing during their last 2023 preseason game to the Baltimore Ravens, though, similar to Super Bowl LVII, it was a close game.

We’ll be curious to see how the Browns and the Eagles play this evening! Don’t miss the 2023 NFL preseason and our coverage of how to watch the games here at Hidden Remote.
