On the NOT list starting in reverse order:
Youngstown, Utica, Newark OH, Kenosha, Hamilton, Gary, maybe Akron.

Bold are correct. And how long have you been a patron of this board? Surely you must know that the very first NFL Champions hale from Akron...and yes, Kenosha also had a team.

Middletown Ironton Harrisburg no team.

These are correct (and the Fonz lived in Milwaukee, not Kenosha)

I wasn't sure about Akron kind of a trick answer in the heartland of the NFL..... OHIO.

In the NOT list how about Racine, Rockford, Mansfield, Lexington, Erie and maybe Syracuse.
Just don't strike me as teams I remember.

Highlighted are correct. Racine and Mansfield did have teams....though the team in Mansfield did not carry the "Mansfield" name...they were called the Oorang Indians, named after a dog kennel.

Of course DEN and maybe the NYG and PHI ?
GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND! -

Oh Jesus I was going through the list in my head and forgot to write Denver! ?
I went and looked up the rest out of curiousity... I'll play Gipper and say that Denver and the NY Giants are correct (Browns played the NY Giants in a playoff game in 1950, won 8-3 and then beat the LA Rams 30-28 to win their first NFL Title. They lost to the NY Giants in 1958 in a playoff game, the GIants would lose 'The Greatest Game Ever' against the Baltimore Colts the next week). The Browns have never played the Philadelphia Eagles in the playoffs.

Check on Denver and NYG.....as said never played Philly
Just one more
