My thoughts.
First, how has Cincinnati never won a Super Bowl? They've had strong quarterbacks in place for most of the past 50 years. They were never superstars, but they were strong. Among our teams so far, they've produced the most pro bowlers but have no rings to show for it. How sad. Second, John Stofa is a five-year quarterback who once led his team in passing, and I've never heard of him before. I'm usually pretty good at football history, but he's a lost city that I just discovered. Third, we talk about how bad Cleveland's QB situation is, but that's a new phenomenon. They never had world beaters by any means, but they weren't horrific up until Bernie Kosar retired. They produced 7 pro bowls, which is 6 more than Chicago has produced. Now, having said that, they still have a bad quarterback history, but I think it's not as epically bad as legend would have us believe.

I don't know the answer to your question Rain Man
First, how has Cincinnati never won a Super Bowl? But Dan Marino never won a Super Bowl and he also went against Joe Montana like Boomer Esiason.

I guess another challenge for them is that they've always had Pittsburgh in their division, and they came into existence only a few years before Pittsburgh became strong.

You could(I'm not gong to, but you could is all I'm saying)make an arguement that Jon Kitna, if he switched sides, would have been in the running for best Browns QB of all time(using the 50 year time frame).
That says it all. |
