Cleveland Browns

The Cleveland Browns are an NFL team based in Cleveland, OH that plays in the AFC North Division of the NFL. They started playing in 1946 as a charter member of the All-America Football Conference; they then joined the NFL in 1950 after the AAFC went under. The Browns won all 4 AAFC titles and had an undefeated season in 1948; they also won 4 NFL championships.

The Browns have a great history dating back to 1946 as a team that was a dominating force in their 1st 20 years winning 8 titles; but today’s Cleveland Browns team is actually a 2nd team which adopted the name and history in 1999. The newest recreation of the Browns was established to replace the old team, which made a contentious move to Baltimore and became the Baltimore Ravens. The team may have taken over the Browns name, but they did not inherit the success.

The team, whose owner is Randy Lerner, has gradually built a respectable team which can perform dependably. The team tried to turn things around in 2002 after ending the season 9-7 and making an appearance in the playoffs; but they failed to make the playoffs in the following 2 seasons.

. In 2007, they saw an amazing turnaround on the field; after they opened the season with a defeat to the Pittsburgh Steelers, they traded their starting quarterback Charlie Frye to the Seattle Seahawks and put their backup Derek Anderson in the starting role. In his first start, Anderson led the Browns to a win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Even with the successful 2007 season (they finished 10-6), the Browns missed the playoffs due to a tie breaker rule.
