3. How many title games have the Browns lost since last winning?

We lost two NFL Championship games, but they were in the Super Bowl era, so I don't know if you are counting those.

I am only counting final, ultimate games. Browns have not been in the Super Bowl, so nothing from that era would count.

7. Besides the person named in Question 5 above, name all the QBs that have lead a Cleveland area team to a championship. Hint: there are more than the one obvious answer.

Otto Graham with the Browns and Bob Waterfield of the Rams. No one none knows anyone from those Old Canton and Akron teams.

I know some of them (I knew one..who is in the PFHOF....and looked another up). The two you named are right.

8. The Browns have played 2 different opponents 4 times each in postseason play. Name these two teams.

Lions and Colts

Check

9. The Browns have played 3 other teams 3 times each in postseason play. Name these 3 teams.

Rams, Cowboys, Broncos Check

10. What team have the Indians met the most times in postseason play?

Red Sox Check

11. What opponent have the Cavaliers met the most times in postseason play?

I'll go Celtics. A lot of Pistons and Hawks too. None of those are correct.

12. What do these teams have in common: Braves, Buffalo Bills, Colts, Fortyniners, Lions, Rams, Redskins, Warriors, NY Yankees.

Cleveland beat in Finals Check

13. What do these teams have in common: Braves, Giants, Lions, Marlins, Packers, Rams, Spurs, Warriors?
