From NFL.COM:

" For the seventh time in the last 10 years, the AFC will be
represented in the Super Bowl by either Manning or Brady."

I remember back in the day when an NFL "rookie" QB beat the
previous years NFL Champs and NEVER threw a pass. He went on to
lead the Browns to the NFL championship. The first of 6
consecutive NFL championship games of which he one 3.

Oh! I almost smile forgot he won all 4 championships in the AAFL
prior to entering the NFL. that's ten consecutive championship
appearances with 7 wins. One QB.

Do I think Otto could win a Superbowl? You bet I do.

Today it takes 2 QBs to appear 7 for ten in the Superbowl.

Give me a break.

Little additional trivia: Browns only pro team to go to consectutive world championship game in their first years of existence (10),most world championship games in in consectutive year span since its formation-11 in 12 year (1946 -1957). Team mates of Otto's with 10 consectutive world championship appearances: Gluefingers Lavelli,Coach Paul Brown,Lou The Toe Groza,Gunner Gatski. The latter 3 played in 11 WC games in first 12 years of career(1946-1955,1957)and of this group of named participants Otto,Gluefingers,Coach PB each have 7 rings,Gunner Gatski 8 rings (7 Browns,1 Detroit),Lou The Toe also 8 total (7 in the mentioned time period and eighth 1964). All in the HOF, impressive!!!


I bleed Seal Brown,Burnt Oranage and White w/Chrome. It's a proud honored birthright and family tradition.
