How to play the Cleveland Browns roster timeline

The Browns' roster history is broken into cards, and you rebuild it by the year each player first joined Cleveland. Each card lists a position abbreviation, including the odd old-fashioned one like MG. One player sits on the timeline at the start, year shown. Every new card goes into a gap you select. A correct pick reveals the year, while a wrong one sends the player to his real spot and costs one of three lives.

The Browns started in the AAFC and dominated there before joining the NFL, and the deck reaches back to those first powerhouse teams. Later comes a break: the original club moved to Baltimore, and Cleveland got the Browns back as a relaunched team that kept the history. Receivers and quarterbacks top the labels, so the position line rarely settles a close call. The many short-lived starters since the return are the hardest to order.

Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
