    I will describe a Quarterback that has started a game/games for the Browns.  You name that QB:

    1. He went 1-0 as a starter for the Browns.  And that put him into the Hall of Fame! 

    2. The other Browns starting QB besides the one named in question #1 that is in the HOF

    3. He had the most wins and most losses as a Browns starting QB.

    4. These 2 QBs wore the lowest uniform number ever worn by a Browns starting QB.

    5. He wore the highest uniform number ever worn by a Browns starting QB.

    6. The three Browns starting QBs that were named to more than one Pro Bowl.

    7. The only Ohio St. QB to ever start a game for the Browns.

    8. The only Browns starting QB to have acquired a PhD.

    9. The only Browns starting QB to be a dentist.

    10. The only Browns starting QB that is now an NFL Head Coach

    11. The only QB to have started a game in place of Otto Graham while he OG was here.

    12. A. The Browns QB to have the most starts without ever having won a game he started

    B. The Browns QB to have the most starts without ever losing a game he started. (regular season)

    13. The Browns starting QB with the highest career average in yards per game (with the Browns)

    14. A. The last Browns QB to start a playoff game.

    B. The last Browns QB to win a playoff game.

    15. The last Brows QB to start every game in a season.

    16. These 2 QBs are the only QBs to start a game for the Browns who attended Notre Dame.   (to date)

            Graham did not wear the highest number by a Browns starting QB in their history. I thought it was George Ratterman who wore #62, but it was actually Cliff Lewis.

            Cool list of questions though! Man, most of these were tough.

                The only fucking team to not realize that you can't win without a great QB.

                            OK, I stand corrected, Thanks

                            Also, for question 11....both Ratterman and Lewis started games in lieu of OG.

                              Interim Report:   Questions not fully answered.   There are only 3:

                              4. Besides Tim Couch, what QB also wore the lowest uniform number in Browns history?

                              6. Besides Frank Ryan, what 2 other QBs made multiple Pro Bowls?

                              13. Which Browns starting QB had the highest yards per game average for his career?

                                    OG, yes, not Sipe.....who made only 1 PB appearance.

                                    One other QB here....a bit of a surprise, perhaps.

                                      This is tough. We've confirmed Graham and Ryan. Other Browns QBs who started for multiple seasons who didn't make 2 Pro Bowls include Bill Nelson, Mike Phipps, Brian Sipe, Bernie Kosar. I highly doubt Testaverde or Couch made even one Pro Bowl. How about Milt Plum? I know he put up at least one really good season and started another year or so.
