Saturday at 8 p.m., News 5 will be replaying that classic game so fans can get revved up for the upcoming season.

In fall of 2008, the Browns starting quarterback Derek Anderson was on the brink of being replaced, but outplayed Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning, securing his position as Cleveland's starter.
