    Actually 10 winning 7. .    46/47/48/49/50/51/52/53/54/55.  I was thinking that he was also in the 1957 title game, but he was not.  Milt Plum and Tommy O'Connell share time in that game.   Not sure which one started.....neither played worth shite.

    The Lions have absolutely owned the Browns since they entered the NFL to today. Weird, considering how mediocre they've been for almost that entire time period post-1950s

    Yes, very weird.  As I have noted previously....it was never the Steelers that became the Browns primary rivalry until like the late 60s. It was always the Lions....based on meeting up in 4 NFL title games.  Beyond that, as the crow flies, Cleveland and Detroit are actually closer than Cleveland and Pittsburgh from a geographical standpoint.  Driving miles is a bit longer due to the necessity of going around the west end of Lake Erie...but that WAS the rivalry.. The Browns move to the AFC put a dagger in the heart of that rivalry.

    Also the NY Giants, had a good rivalry from the get-go in 1950 with them into the early 60s...

    It's probably a good thing the Browns aren't in the NFC North considering their track record with the Lions AND the Packers. 😆
