Browns head coach Hue Jackson is knee-deep in football this week as he tries to get rookie quarterback DeShone Kizer, with just one NFL start under his belt, and the rest of his young team ready for another tall test on Sunday against the host Baltimore Ravens.

Yet even he is well aware of, and very impressed with, what is going on with Cleveland’s pro baseball team, the Indians.

Jackson was asked during his press conference on Wednesday about the Indians’ 21-game winning streak and if he wants that for is club.

“Oh, absolutely,” Jackson said not long after the Indians had beaten the Detroit Tigers 5-3 at Progressive Field to tie the 1935 Chicago Cubs for the longest uninterrupted (without any ties) winning streak in major league history. “I just said, ‘I will take that.’ I will take half of that right now.

“They have done an outstanding job, and my hat is off to them. Everything they have done, they are on their way back again. They have great management. They have done a great job acquiring other players. They are what it is all about.

“This city is rocking now, there is no question. We have had the Cavs, we have the Indians … come on Browns, let’s go.”

The Browns are at the other end of a record winning streak, coming off their worst mark ever, and the worst in the NFL last year, 1-15.

But there was a time when the Browns were the ones setting records for winning. They put together a pro football record 29-game unbeaten streak from the middle of the 1947 season through the middle of ’49, going 27-0-2. Included in that was an 18-game winning streak from late in the 1947 season through the end of ’48, punctuated by a perfect 15-0 mark in 1948 and their third All-America Football Conference championship in as many seasons of existence.

The Indians also won the World Series in 1948 and haven’t done so since. The Browns haven’t captured an NFL title since 1964.

It’s long past time to break both of those droughts, don’t you think?
