I will now give the answers to these:

1. What is the current head to head regular season record between the Browns and Steelers?

As of now, it is 56-58 in the Steelers favor. When the question was written it was 55-58. (overall it is 56-60 with the Steelers 2 postseason wins)

2. How many players/coaches from the Browns 40s/50s dynasty (1946-1955) are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame versus the number of players/coaches from the Steelers 1970s (1970-1980) dynasty are in the HOF?

By my count, each dynasty has had 10 members make the HOF:

Browns: Doug Atkins, Paul Brown, Len Ford, Frank Gatski, Otto Graham, Lou Groza, Dante Lavelli, Mike McCormack, Marion Motley, Bill Willis

Steelers: Mel Blount, Terry Bradshaw, Joe Greene, Jack Ham, Franco Harris, Jack Lambert, Chuck Noll, John Stallworth, Lynn Swann, Mike Webster

3. How many players who have played for the Browns SINCE their 40s/50s dynasty are in the HOF versus the number of Steelers players SINCE their 1970s dynasty have been elected to the Hall of Fame?

The Browns have had 7 players inducted in the HOF who began their careers after the Browns dynasty ended in the 1955 season: Jim Brown, Joe DeLamelleure, Gene Hickerson, Leroy Kelley, Bobby Mitchell, Ozzie Newsome, Paul Warfield

The Steelers have had 1 player inducted who began his career after the 1980 season: Rod Woodson

Think about this: the Browns have had more HOFers since the end of the Steeler dynasty than the Steelers had: Joe D. and Ozzie, compared to just Woodson.

4. What is the largest margin of victory in the history of the Browns/Steelers rivalry?

The Browns 51-0 win in Pittsburgh in 1989 is the largest margin of victory for either team in the series.

5. What is the longest Browns winning streak in the series? What is the Steelers longest winning streak?

Browns: 8 games from 1950 to 1953. Steelers 12 games....and DONE.

6. How many consecutive times did the Browns lose in the "Three Rivers Jinx"?

Sixteen times from 1970 to 1985.

7. What event/phenonmena affected the Browns/Steelers game in Cleveland last year?

Hurricane Ike came through with rain and wind gusts up to 60 mph.

8. What even/phenomena affected the first Browns/Steelers game played in Heinz Field?

The 9/11 Terrorist attack postponed the Browns/Steeler game that was to be played 9/16/2001, their first scheduled Heinz Field game. They made the game up at the end of the season in January 2002.

9. What was significant about the Browns/Steelers game played in Pittsburgh in 1991?

It was the last game coached by Chuck Noll.

10. Where was the very first Browns/Steelers game played?

Forbes Field, Pittsburgh

11. What unusual scheduling variance had been a tradition of the Browns/Steelers games held in Cleveland in the 50s and 60s?

They were played on Saturday nights. I believe they were called the Saturday Night Classics, and the last one was held in 1970. Several reasons were given for discontinuing them: 1. So many fights broke out at that last one between drunken fans, the teams thought it would be better to go to Sunday afternoon games. 2. The Network deals that were entered into wanted to preserve Saturdays for the college game. Since then, the NFL has scheduled Saturday games only after the college season is essentially wrapped up in early December.

12. In addition to the Browns and Steelers, what teams were a part of the "Century Division" of the NFL in 1967-1969?

The St. Louis Cardinals, New Orleans Saints, and New York Giants. In those days, the Giants were every bit as big a rival for the Browns, if not more so, than the Steelers. Recall the matchups of Jim Brown vs. Sam Huff. This rivalry ended when the Browns/Steelers/Colts left for the AFC. I am of the belief that the Colts should in fact be moved to the AFC Central, with the Ravens moving to the East, and the Dolphins to the South. That would put the three old NFL "refugees" into the same division, plus, now, Indianapolis is by far the closest rival to the Bengals. They could have the sort of territorial rivalry there that the Browns and Steelers have.

Aah, that would have been Forbes Field.

And I see I misread Question #8, I thought you were talking about last season. The first meeting in Heinz field was put off until the end of the season because of 9/11. It was supposed to be the first game in the new stadium, just like they played the first game in Browns Stadium when the team started back up.

Alrighty then, you got those two.

@ballpeen said:

No, the Giants and Saints swapped divisions that one year, the Saints played in the Century and the giants played in the Capitol. Next year (1969) they switched back.

LNC got 6 questions right!

On question number 10 I am looking for something more specific.
