The Cleveland Browns are one of the iconic franchises in all of professional sports. The name itself conjures images of black-and-white films, games in the snow and cold, rabid fans in the “dawg pound”, and Jim Brown running over defenders. The 1950’s were the golden era for the Browns, as they appeared in six straight NFL championship games, winning three. By 1962 their championship level had faded, as their 7-6-1 record indicated. However, 1963 would be a year of return to their championship form as they put together a 10-4 record and a second place finish in the East. They would win the NFL Championship in 1964. Unfortunately for Browns fans, that was their last title to date.
