The Gipper Posted April 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 Here is a set of trivia about mostly Browns QBs in history. Plus a couple of ethnic questions to begin: Final Answers 1. Name the 3 Jewish players who are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Benny Friedman, Sid Luckman, Ron Mix 2. Name the 4 Hispanic players who are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. (Hint: this is tough as Anthony Munoz Steve Van Buren. Born in Honduras, adopted by family of Dutch origin...thus the name. Tom Fears...Father was "white", mother was Mexican. Ted Hendricks...Father was "white", mother was Guatamalen. 3. Name the 2 primarily native Americans who are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Jim Thorpe, everyone knows Joe Guyon....also a Carlisle school Graduate 4. Place in order the following QBs in terms of best win pct. in their careers as a starting QB: Paul McDonald, Mike Phipps, Brian Sipe Overall record: Phipps 38-31-2, Sipe 57-55, McDonald 8-13 (but, yes, for the Browns Phipps was 24-25-2, but 14-6 for the Bears.) 5. What distinction does John Borton have in Browns football history? He is the ONLY QB out of THE Ohio State University ever drafted by the Browns 6. Match the Ohio High School with the Browns QB draftee: QBs: John Borton Alliance Tom Dmitroff Barberton Charlie Frye Willard Bernie Kosar Boardman Mark Miller Canton South Bob Ptacek Holy Name Brady Quinn Dublin Coffman Schools: Alliance Barberton Boardman Canton South Dublin Coffman Holy Name (Cleveland) Willard 7. Name all 8 QBs the Browns have drafted since the draft went to 7 rounds in like 1994. Eric Zeier, Tim Couch, Spergon Wynn, Luke McCown, Charlie Frye, Brady Quinn, Colt McCoy, Brandon Weeden 8. Of the QBs that you would have listed in 7 above, which one had the best winning pct. as a starting QB? Couch: .373 Zeier: .333 Frye: .304 McCoy: .285 Weeden: .250 McCown: .222 Quinn: .200 Wynn: .000 Awful. 9. Since 1950 how many Pro Bowl appearances have Quarterbacks that were drafted by the Browns made? Just 4: Milt Plum 2....both with the Browns in the 1960 and 1961 seasons...and then they traded him. Sipe: 1 1980 Kosar: 1 1987 10. Since the 1970 merger the Browns on 3 occasions have drafted two QBs in the same year. Name those years. 1970 drafted Mike Phipps and Mike Cilek 1976 drafted Gene Swick and Craig Nagel 1984 drafted Terry Nugent and John Bond And Phipps was the best of the bunch!!! 11. Of all the QBs the Browns have drafted since 1950, which one rushed for the most yards? Phipps: Total career 1278, over 1000 with the Browns Second: Sipe 762 yards. 12. Name those WRs that were drafted by the Browns and who made a Pro Bowl as a Brown since the Browns drafted Paul Warfield in 1964. Webster Slaughter made the PB twice. Braylon Edwards once, Josh Gordon once. Gerald McNeil, listed as a regular WR, made it as a Punt Returner. Also....the Browns drafted Ron Brown....who did make the Pro Bowl....for the Rams.

The Gipper Posted April 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 Bottom line on a lot of the above: The Browns have really done a fairly poor job of drafting talent in the last 50 years: Only 4 Pro Bowl appearances by drafted WRs Only 4 Pro Bowl appearances by drafted QBs The best QBs they have drafted have barely over a .500 record. Sipe only 2 games over .500. The same for Bernie. No QB who can even reach a .400 win pct. in the last 20+ years. WTF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
