The Cleveland Browns are one of the four teams to have never been to a Super Bowl, and one of two teams to go 0-16. I heard they named this team after a coach? Oh, so what about the New England Belichicks or the San Francisco Montanas?
They are proud to be back with their family it seems
What kind of name is that?
The Washington Commanders are a professional American football team based in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.
In 2020, Washington after 87 years got rid of the Redskins trademark due to it being labeled racist to native culture.

I’m pretty sure back in the old days, they played in New Orleans. Then there was the move to Utah, and you know what they did? Not even change the name because it wouldn’t fit the city they play in now? They should have been called like the Mormons or whatever.
