    OK, how about we give the same awards for the Browns, but not limit it to just since 99. Take the entire Browns history in play here:

    Best Career Performance: Otto Graham. He would probably win this vs. any other QB in Pro football history. 10 consecutive championship game appearances. 7 wins. No one can match this.

    Best Season: 1980 Brian Sipe MVP year

    Best Game: Bernie Kosar, 1986 divisional playoff game vs. Jets. Brings Browns back from 10 pts behind to tie. Then wins in double OT. Sets the record that is still standing for most yards passing in a post season game. (is also, I believe still Browns best single game yard total)

    Worst Career Performance. (Nominees include Weeden, Quinn, Frye). I have to go with Charlie Frye 6-13 career record. 14 TDs vs. 23 Ints. Unceremoniously shipped off after one game in 2007.

    Worst Season. Doug Pederson. 2000. Went 1-7 as starter, had only 2 TDs in 8 starts, 8 ints.

    Worst Game. To Be Announced later. Need to some thinking/research on this.

    Best Performance by a Veteran in first year brought in to be the teams starting QB: Bill Nelsen, 1968. Went 9-2 as starter, took team to conference title game.

    Worst Performance by a Veteran to be starting QB: George Ratterman, 1956 After those 10 straight title games, Ratterman brings first losing season to Browns. Went 1-3 with only 1 TD

    Best Performance by a Relief QB to replace an injured/benched starter. Derek Anderson 2007. Went 10-5 replacing Charlie Frye.

    Worst performance by a Relief QB to replace an injured/benched starter: Mike Pagel. Year after Browns go to AFC title game, Kosar gets hurt, Pagel goe 0-3 with 3 TDs 8 Ints. with a 46% completion rate.

    Again, please feel free to name alternate winners in these categories or to name new awards.

    "We are Americans. We don't quit doing something because it's wrong. We just keep doing the wrong thing till it turns out right." Browns maybe the most American Football team ever.
