Page "Cleveland Browns" Paragraph 30

Cleveland's campaigns in 1959 and 1960 were noteworthy for Brown's league-leading rushing totals in both seasons.

Plum became established as the starting quarterback, bringing a measure of stability to the squad not seen since Graham's retirement.

The Penn State product led the team to a 7-5 record in 1959, and one year later, he turned in one of the greatest statistical seasons at his position in NFL history.

Nonetheless, in 1960, the Browns dropped three games by a total of 10 points, finished with an 8-3-1 record and out of the playoffs for the second consecutive season.
