Although they defeated the Lions in the Divisional Playoff, and the 49ers in the NFC Championship game, they lost to the Baltimore Colts 16-13 in the Super Bowl.

6. This Cleveland Brown quarterback led his team to a championship game in each of his six seasons in the NFL. Who was he?

Sayers played for only seven seasons from 1965-1971. He was one of those players who helped increase the fan presence in the NFL. As a rookie in 1965, Gale scored 20 touchdowns with 14 rushing and six by reception.

Answer: Fred Dryer

Dryer was a Giant from 1969-1971, then made a name for himself as part of the Rams' defensive front four until 1981. Fred went to one Super Bowl, but lost to the Steelers 31-19.
