In First and Ten: A Fresh Look at the Cleveland Browns, Vince McKee covers the new history of the Browns after their return to the NFL in 1999, including several winning seasons and numerous runs toward the playoffs. From a Hail Mary touchdown pass by Tim Couch to secure the first victory of the new era to a playoff victory led by Baker Mayfield over the Pittsburgh Steelers, this book captures it all.
