Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: This question, more than any other, really intrigued me. Do you know how hard it is to go 11-5 and allow more points than you score? Well, I did some research, and the answer is very fucking hard! Since the Browns came back in 1999, there has been 56 teams that have gone 11-5. Of those 56, the 2012 Indianapolis Colts and the 2020 Cleveland Browns went 11-5 while having a negative point differential. That's it. But wait, there's more! The Browns 408 points scored was the 4th highest season total in franchise history, and the 419 points allowed the 6th highest in franchise history. Here's the craziest stat of all though - while the Browns did score the 4th highest amount of points in a season in their history, they finished 14th overall in the NFL in total points scored in 2020. The NFL is turning into Big 12 football. No one was real close to hitting both, so I'll award co-winners... Zombo for his offensive prediction, Tour for his defensive prediction.

I don't know....I think Z guessing 403 when the actual figure was 408....only 5 pts...less than a TD IS "real" close. Same for Tour.....guessing 416 when the total was 419....a single Field goal...that is "real" close. I myself seriously overrated their defensive prowess. But no, not as badly as ibb. Maybe he thought we would miss several games due to covid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wouldn't use "en fuego" in any context. If it was about somebody, you would use "en llamas" (in flames), if you mean to say something like "where are the papers?

mjp28 Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 And it lives on..... Dan Patrick, en fuego, hits NY NBC sportscaster Dan Patrick is enjoying covering his first Olympics. Credit: Getty Images By Neil BestJanuary 14, 2011 10:39 AM PRINT SHARE It has been 3½ years (2007 !) since Dan Patrick left ESPN, a career move many thought he would come to regret. Nope. Not yet, anyway. Since 2007 he happily has gone about his post-Bristol business, developing a syndicated radio show that evolved into a TV simulcast, writing for Sports Illustrated and hosting NBC’s NFL studio show.“I refuse to go away,’’ he joked Thursday.One glaringly large piece has been missing from his media portfolio, though: New York. The radio show is on satellite radio, and the TV version has been on DirecTV since 2009. But Monday the majority of area residents will have access to him for the first time when MSG Plus begins to carry the simulcast from 9 a.m. to noon. (He still won't be on terrestrial radio here. WFAN is all local, and 1050 ESPN is owned by, um, ESPN.) “MSG was something I thought was important,’’ Patrick said............and on en fuego goes........

I'm going to throw Nero a bone and tell him good job by getting close to the yardage total, but I'm going to give Coyote the overall win on this one. And the 'Big Dummy Award' goes to...

Bob806: Landry, 76 Gipper: Landry, 88 SdBacker80: Landry, 82 DBone: Landry, 91 Nero: Landry, 80 Tour2ma: Hooper, 88 Dutch Oven: Landry, 82 gumby73: Landry, 84 Flugel: Landry, 72 Coyote: Landry, 84 Zombo: Landry, 101 TexasAg: Landry, 88 Ibleedbrown: Landry, 88 Answer: For the third year in a row, Jarvis Landry lead the Browns in receptions, with 72. Other notable receivers: Hooper 46, Hunt 38, Higgins 37, Bryant 24, Beckham Jr. 23. Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: All but one predictor went with Landry, and while he had his lowest reception total of his three seasons in Cleveland, he still easily lead the team, despite battling injuries for a good portion of the season. Flugel was dead on with his prediction. And the 'Big Dummy Award' goes to... It was a bold choice by Tour to go with newly acquired Austin Hooper, but I kind of get it, tight ends do well in a Stefanski offense. Hooper had a ok season, Harrison Bryant started fast but hit the freshman wall halfway through the season, while David Njoku went from in the doghouse to possibly the best all-around tight end by the end of the season. (Who saw that?) Many of us are still wondering why a team that features tight ends and who runs the ball so well and has a QB who performs well in play-action didn't feature throwing downfield down the seams to the tight ends.

Other notable reception yardage leaders: Higgins 599, Hooper 435, Beckham Jr. 319, Hunt and Peoples-Jones 304. Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: When Beckham Jr. blew out his knee at the beginning of the Browns seventh game of the season in Cincinnati, this ceased to be a race, even with Landry nursing injuries of his own. DBone with the win. And the 'Big Dummy Award' goes to... Not sure it's fair to give this dubious award to someone whose prediction gets blown up by an injury, but at the pace he was going at, Beckham Jr. wasn't going to be anywhere close to Gipper's prediction. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted February 2, 2021 Report Share Posted February 2, 2021 And the 'Big Dummy Award' goes to... Not sure it's fair to give this dubious award to someone whose prediction gets blown up by an injury, but at the pace he was going at, Beckham Jr. wasn't going to be anywhere close to Gipper's prediction. The injury was obviously unforeseen. I was going on the basis that OBJ had at least 3 1300 yard seasons...before his first injury, and the belief that he was going to round back in shape, and that we were to have a new competent coach that knew what to do with him. But, the injury took care of all that. On the other hand, your comment that prior to the injury that OBJ was nowhere close to the 1300 yard pace apparently runs counter to the contention that Baker was singularly focused on getting OBJ the ball. If he was so focused on OBJ, wouldn't you think OBJ would have had more catches and more yards in the games he was able to play? Instead, apparently he was spreading the ball around even with OBJ in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 All of us were pretty to fairly off on our predicitons, but none more than Gipper again. I, and nearly well over half of the people that chose him, expected him to be much more of a factor in and around the goal line. The Browns actually were scoring a lot of points.....and our top TD receiver only scored 5 TDs? That seems off, but no. Browns scored 21 rushing TDs and 27 passing TDs.... Chubb had 12 rushing TDs, Hunt had 6 rushing and 5 passing, so those two did the bulk of the TD work for this team. But, overall, I guess I expected more out of some of these players.

On the receiving TD thing, I didn't expect those to be so spread out. But they were. I expected Hooper to dominate the red zone. He contributed, but did not dominate.
