  • FYI.....if the Browns were to go that route: Paxton Lynch was born in San Antonio TX.

  • Interesting piece of trivia. Thanks for posting it.

  • A total of 23 states represented. The way the Browns cycle through QB's they'll eventually have a QB from every state in the union. Keep up the good work, Browns - almost half-way there!

  • Didnt know Mark Rypien was Canadian, and didnt know Babe Parilli played for us.

    Learned two things.

  • I was also surprised to see Parilli as an ex Brown. Wasn't he sort of an "ageless wonder" for the Patriots in the old AFL?
