The NFL in 1940


Yesterday when I wrote about the Bears' total destruction of the Washington Redskins in the 1940 Championship game, played between the eastern and western divisions of the NFL, I found a list of Western Division teams  and their records and found some of interest.

From Wikipedia

NFL WESTERN DIVISION

Chicago Bears  8-3
Green Bay Packers  6-4-1
Detroit Lions  5-5-1
Cleveland Rams  4-6-1   Moved to Los Angeles in 1946

NFL EASTERN DIVISION

Washington Redskins  9-2
Brooklyn Dodgers  8-3   In 1946, the NFL cancelled their team franchise
New York Giants  6-4-1
Pittsburgh Steelers  2-7-2
Philadelphia Eagles  1-10
