You guys are talking the old AAFC numbers - when the Browns moved to the NFL in '50, they went with the NFL numbering system.

Okay. Now it begins to make sense.

I didn't know the AAFC and the NFL had different numbering systems. That explains why Otto Graham went from a funny looking #60 as quarterback to a more "normal" #14.

Slightly off-Condi question: To which league did the Cleveland Rams belong?
