Dutch Oven Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 4 minutes ago, The Gipper said: Aafc better than the NFL at the time There's a legit argument to be made for that. I feel confident that the Browns would have beaten the NFL champions of 1946-1949 at least 2 of the 4 seasons, if not better. But that's speculation. We'll never know.

The Browns might have been competitive, but everyone else not. The AAFC was not the equal of the NFL, unlike the 1960s AFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The AAFC was not the equal of the NFL, unlike the 1960s AFL. Actually, the overall talent level of the AAFC was probably superior to the NFL by the end of its run. This book covered that subject pretty convincingly. https://www.amazon.com/Best-Show-Football-1946-1955-Browns-Pro-ebook/dp/B004C04ES8/ref=sr_1_56?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1514895809&sr=1-56&keywords=cleveland+browns+history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
