NFL Championship Game Running Thread

The Cleveland Browns appeared in six straight NFL championship games from 1950-55, and then again in 1957. That's a record that will never be broken.

 

A lot fewer teams and playoff games to get through back then.

 

No question. But records are records. Hack Wilson's 191 RBI came against fewer pitchers and fewer teams, but it's the record, right?

 

Right, though those two circumstances aren't really comparable.

Among many other things, Wilson having fewer games on the schedule made it more difficult to compile more RBIs, while having fewer playoff games to win made it less difficult for the Browns to reach the title game.

 

Especially by the Browns. *rim shot*

 

Plus four straight title games in the AAFC.

 

As much as we've seen the networks switch games back and forth regardless of conference this year, why not, in the case of last weekend's games, give CBS the prime time game on Sunday, but assign them Bucs-Lions? Or am I making too much sense here.

 

It lived up to the hype. And the Bills squandered too many chances. Chiefs are/were beatable and left points on the field - it wasn't the field goal kicker (of course that would have helped).

 

You stole my line.

It's nice of them to still be making sure everyone else gets their fair share.

 

Well, somebody's wrong here.
