Here I am going to go back to an old format of Trivia,  for this weekends games of Browns vs. Texans:   In other words, several questions:

1. What is the head to head record between the Browns and the Texans over the short history?

2. What Head Coach of the Texans was also a HC for the Browns?

3. What QB that lead the Texans in passing one year also led the Browns in passing one year?

4. What  2 RBs who lead the Texans in rushing for a year also played for the Browns.   (played for, but did not lead the Browns in rushing)

5. Who is the Texans owner?

6. Back in like 2001 or 2002, the Texans played the very first game of their existence,   and WON!   Who did they beat?

7. What is the Texans mascot's name?

8. What Heisman Trophy winning QB now does color commentary on the Texans radio broadcasts?

9. How many other professional football teams have used the name "Texans" 

10.  Who was asked for their daughter's hand in marriage while attending a Browns/Texans game? 

[The Gipper]

Don't know why no one made an effort here. Pure laziness I guess:

1. What is the head to head record between the Browns and the Texans over the short history?

Now, after the game, the Texans lead the series  7 games to 4 for the Browns. 

2. What Head Coach of the Texans was also a HC for the Browns?

Romeo Crennell.

3. What QB that lead the Texans in passing one year also led the Browns in passing one year?

Brian Hoyer

4. What  2 RBs who lead the Texans in rushing for a year also played for the Browns.   (played for, but did not lead the Browns in rushing)

Carlos Hyde, and  Ben Tate

5. Who is the Texans owner?

Janice McNair, widow of original owner Bob McNair.

6. Back in like 2001 or 2002, the Texans played the very first game of their existence,   and WON!   Who did they beat?

The Dallas Cowboys

7. What is the Texans mascot's name?

Toro    

8. What Heisman Trophy winning QB now does color commentary on the Texans radio broadcasts?

Andre Ware who played at the Univ. of Houston

9. How many other professional football teams have used the name "Texans" 

At least  4:  Dallas Texans of the  NFL who played one year: 1952;   Dallas Texans of the AFL, who became the Kansas City Chiefs;  San Antonio Texans of the CFL;   and the Houston Texans of the WFL. 

It is why the current franchise are called the DumbAss Texans,  because people in Texas apparently have little to no imagination when it comes to team names. 

10.  Who was asked for their daughter's hand in marriage while attending a Browns/Texans game? 

That would be me.....December 2018.

You were.   And Bedford Falls is based on Seneca Falls NY. 

And  Pottsville PA  had the Maroons.   And that town to this day claims they should have been granted the 1925 NFL title...and I think their claim is justified. 

There had been some talk of reviving that name for the WTFs...you know  Washington Team Football.   But apparently that has been rejected. 

So far y'all have gotten exactly -0-
