Colts Meet Browns for NFL Title
The Cleveland Browns host the Baltimore Colts in the NFL title game on Sunday at Cleveland Stadium under wintry conditions. Cleveland coach Blanton Collier sticks with the same lineup that toppled Dallas for the Eastern crown. Timmy Brown is activated for Baltimore as a key kickoff return option. An expected crowd of about 82,000 will witness the 2:35 p.m. EST kickoff with CBS and radio coverage minus Cleveland television in the local market.
