I'll bet MainCourse can't name the qb and starting backfield for the Browns' very first regular pro game......unless he tires looking it up,but don't think it's there anyway.
I would guess off hand Cliff Lewis was the quarterback and Marion Motley at fullback. I'm not sure if Lavelli or Speedie were backs or receivers but they played tons of funky formations back then. They were the 3 skill people that mattered back then...(they were receivers, so I guess I can't name the entire starting backfield...but I'm quite certain on Lewis and pretty sure on Motley...the other running back...not sure. ) Otto Graham took over at qb very quickly however his rookie year.
