BrownsfaninPa Posted January 13, 2021 Report Share Posted January 13, 2021 This is a simple fact to live by. Prior to the 1967 NFL/AFL CHAMPIONSHIP aka Super Bowl 1, The NFL had their final games known as Championship game. Back in the late 40's and through out the 50's and mid 60's, the Browns were a dominating team, winning 8 championships. Since the final game of the season is now called the Super Bowl, many fans don't credit these past championships, well their wrong. The NFL championship game back then is equal to today's Super Bowl. Yes there were less games played way back then, but no matter how you look at it, The Cleveland Browns are NFL Champions, even if there hasn't been a trip to today's Super Bowl. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gipper Posted January 13, 2021 Report Share Posted January 13, 2021 The Super Bowl is the "NFL Championship Game". It is just that it has been given a catchy name for marketing purposes. And that did not happen until, I believe after like Super Bowl 4 or 5....they retroactively gave the name Super Bowl to the previous NFL/AFL Championship games. There have been NFL Championship games. AFL Championship Games. AAFC Championship Games. NFL/AFL Championship games. ....and prior to 1933...no Championship game.

BrownsfaninPa Posted January 13, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2021 I'm a long time fan of the NFL, and the Super Bowl is what every team wants to reach every year. All you want is to be called NFL CHAMPIONS. Personally, I don't feel that the S B trophy should be named after anyone. This is also not a world championship. Its only national here in the U.S. We play for the NFL (National Football League) The WLAF was known as The WORLD League of American Football. Meaning the American teams played against other teams from other countries, Germany, Spain, London, Canada, The title of Lombardi and World Champions should be removed from this trophy, an just keep it what it truly is, NFL CHAMPIONSHIP. And no coach should be labeled on this NFL trophy. The George Halas and Lamar Hunt trophies are different topics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bengals had an accurate, but weak-armed QB, and Brown gave his OC Bill Walsh the assignment of creating a passing attack that featured short passes. This was the beginning of what became the West Coast offense, shorter passes that focused on hitting players in stride to allow them to gain yards after the catch. I didn't know about Bernie's involvement in the name, but apparently this is true, but mistakenly. Bernie mentioned "the West Coast Offense" in comparison to the Cowboys offense (when he was there) and the reporter mistakenly thought he was referring to the Walsh/49ers offense. Bernie was actually talking about the Air Coryell offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernie was actually talking about the Air Coryell offense. 1. Yes... and as we know that does not make it Paul Browns'. 2. Actually the Bengals had a promising, rookie QB, Greg Cook, who suffered a torn rotator cuff early in the season. That necessitated scrapping the vertical offense installed in TC and replacement it with a short, quick passing game. Walsh was Paul's QB Coach and called the plays. At the time it was generally referred to as "the nickle and dime offense." However, Walsh did not originate the concept at that time. That happened over 20 years prior in Bill's Master's Thesis at San Jose St., Flank Formation Football - Stress: Defense . Bill used a fledgling version of the concept in his first job to turn a doormat H.S. team into a winner. The concept developed through Bill's subsequent stops on college staffs and his first pro job in Oakland. He left Oakland to join Brown in Cinci. Bill expected to become the Cinci HC when Paul retired. He left after Paul passed over him and chose Bill Johnson. Pretty safe to say Paul fucked up. 3. Walsh ended up joining Don Coryell in SD where the Offense was further developed. While some do credit Bernie and a miscommunication for the name, almost a decade earlier Bill Parcels used it after his NYG team destroy Walsh's 49ers in a playoff game. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/1063824-a-brief-history-of-the-west-coast-offense-part-1-planting-the-seed https://www.thephinsider.com/2014/2/13/5406774/football-101-what-is-a-west-coast-offense https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Coast_offense#History_and_use_of_the_term 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernie was actually talking about the Air Coryell offense. Bill Walsh adapted and updated Paul Brown's basic concepts that he ran with Otto Graham. He did not just create that offense out of the firmament. He also took some of Sid Gillman's concepts from his San Diego offense and applied it. Not saying he wasn't creative with it...just that the basic concepts had been around. Walsh spent eight seasons with the Bengals as the offensive coordinator. In that time, he incorporated many of Paul Brown's philosophies into his own tool kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
