Dutch's '17 Browns Questions
-
7. How many yards and TDs does Isaiah Crowell run for?
Flyin J: 920, 6
Dutch Oven: 1075, 8
jcam222: 1025, 9
Bob806: 1253, 9
PoeticG: 1114, ?
Coyote: 1123, 11
mjp28: 1776, 15
The Gipper: 1250. 12
gumby73: 1085, 11
Tour2ma: 985, 9
Mudfly: 1150, 9
Answer: Crowell, possibly in his last season with the Browns, ran for 853 yards (4.1yds/carry) and 2 touchdowns. Other notable Browns rushers: D. Johnson 348yds/4.2avg/4td, D. Kizer 419yds/5.4avg/5td.
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: Looking at the predictions, it might appear that he had a disappointing season (especially considering he didn't miss any time due to injuries), but he had a solid season, but once again the Browns were unable - or unwilling - to commit to the run game. We all are aware of Hue's interesting play-calling in the redzone. Flyin J for the win.
And the 'Big Dummy Award' goes to... If he averaged 3-5 more carries a game, he probably gets really close to what everyone predicted yard wise. If Hue didn't enjoy watching Kizer self-destruct in the red zone (and throw some of the ugliest fade patterns in modern NFL history) perhaps Crowell adds a few more TDs. If all that happened, and Crowell did mass amounts of PEDs and didn't get caught, plus obtained super powers, he might have got close to mjp's prediction.
Consolation prize goes to... wait for it... PoG for not completely answering yet another question. Hooray!

8. Who is the leading Browns receiver, and how many receptions and yards does he have?
Flyin J: Coleman, 56, 820
Dutch Oven: Johnson, 62, 595
jcam222: Coleman 77, 1020
Bob806: Coleman 66, ?
PoeticG: Gordon ?, 999
Coyote: Coleman 61, 822
mjp28: Coleman 15, 1598
The Gipper: Coleman 77, 999
gumby73: Coleman 62, 940
Tour2ma: Coleman 100, 1095
Mudfly: Britt 62, 780
Answer: Duke Johnson lead the Browns with 74 receptions, for 693 yards (and 3 TD). Other notables: DeValve 33/395, Njoku 32/386, Crowell 28/182, Louis 27/357, Higgins 27/312, Coleman 23/305, Gordon 18/335.
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: I was somewhat surprised so many people picked Mr. Glass, who once again missed a big chunk of the season with a hand injury, only to personally ensure the 0-16 parade with a 4th down drop in the season finale in Pittsburgh. Duke Johnson easily lapped the field, giving Dutch the victory.
And the 'Big Dummy Award' goes to... The possibilities are endless! There's the Coleman contigency, especially a certain someone who (I hope) goofed up by predicting Coleman averaging an impressive 106.5 yards per reception (not only would this be a record, but impossible on a NFL field)
or a few others who didn't complete the answer fully, including guess who!, but I'm going to give it to Mudfly, because Kenny Britt, that's why.

For some reason "half-lapped" seems more appropriate...

Gone by end of 8th game.
That's what I thought in 2016 and 2017 but injuries and crappy plays derailed that. Seriously though with a good or great draft they should win a few this year.....despite a rather tough schedule.

9. How many sacks does Garrett get?
Flyin J: 8
Dutch Oven: 8
jcam222: 8.5
Bob806: 10
PoeticG: 7
Coyote: 6
mjp28: 12.5
The Gipper: 8
gumby73: 8
Tour2ma: 10
Mudfly: 7
Answer: #1 overall pick Myles Garrett battled injuries during his rookie season, but in the 10 games he appeared in he had 7 sacks. The Browns had 34 as a team.
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: A hotly-contested question, virtually everyone was in contention. Sadly, his best play was negated in the Bears game by a teammate lining up five yards oddsides.
Still, Garrett showed some real promise. PoG and Mudfly share this tasty treat.
And the 'Big Dummy Award' goes to... In a shocking turn of events, this award goes to Ghoolie, whose fetish for homosexual Zumba instructors (and I guess him imagining Garrett in tights teaching a class for him only?) has entertained no one all season long.

10. The Browns have their and the Texans first round picks in the '18 NFL Draft. What spots will those picks be at?
Flyin J: 3, 17
Dutch Oven: 4, 19
jcam222: 4, 20
Bob806: 17, 24
PoeticG: 8, 32
Coyote: 9, 17
mjp28: 9, 18
The Gipper: 14, 20
gumby73: 5, 19
Tour2ma: 12, 22
Mudfly: 8, 18
Answer: The Browns find themselves in an once in a lifetime situation - with the #1 overall pick via their own hard work and diligence, and #4 overall via the Texans and them falling apart after DeShaun Watson's season-ending injury.
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: Honestly I went into this season thinking that the Browns pick was pretty much a given to be in the top 5, and hoping the Texans would not qualify for the playoffs to keep that pick in the #15-20 range. I would have happily taken something along the lines of #3 and #17... #1 and #4? IT'S LIKE CHRISTMAS IN APRIL, YO! No one was even in the same zip code on this question.
And the 'Big Dummy Award' goes to... Since no one was close to winning, that means we all were in the running for this ignominious award. PoG proves, of course, how much better of a Browns fan he is over everyone else here by picking a team coming off a 1-15 season to win the Super Bowl. How adorable.

11. AFC Champ?
Flyin J: New England
Dutch Oven: New England
jcam222: New England
Bob806: Oakland
PoeticG: Cleveland
Coyote: New England
mjp28: Oakland
The Gipper: Oakland
gumby73: New England
Tour2ma: New England
Mudfly: Oakland
Answer: For the 9th time since the 2001 season, the New England Patriots will represent the AFC in the Super Bowl. To get there, they cruised by the Tennessee Titans in the divisional playoff game, 35-14, then came from behind to defeat the upstart Jacksonville Jaguars 24-20.
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: Picking the Patriots to win the AFC title isn't very difficult, it's akin to selecting Alabama to win the college title. A smart choice, but not very exciting. Well, here's to being steady and boring: Flyin J, Dutch, jcam222, Coyote, gumby73, and Tour. You have to wonder how much this dynasty has left in the ol' proverbial gas tank.
And the 'Big Dummy Award' goes to... But when you absolutely can't bring yourself to pick the Patriots, and being a Browns fan doesn't allow you to select the Steelers (the somewhat obvious #2 pick), you look for an upcoming, young team with potential: the Oakland Raiders! A bold pick, I liked the thought behind it. Unfortunately for Bob806, mjp28, The Gipper, and Mudfly, the Raiders struggled mightily and went 6-10. But alas, all is not lost four that were just mentioned - there's Super Homer PoG to save the day with his asinine Browns pick! HOORAY!

12. NFC Champ?
Flyin J: Dallas
Dutch Oven: Green Bay
jcam222: Atlanta
Bob806: Green Bay
PoeticG: Dallas
Coyote: Green Bay
mjp28: Green Bay
The Gipper: Seattle
gumby73: Seattle
Tour2ma: Seattle
Mudfly: Seattle
Answer: The Philadelphia Eagles, who suffered a season-ending injury to QB Carson Wentz at the end of the regular season, rallied around backup Nick Foles and defeated Atlanta (15-10) and Minnesota (38-7) to advance to their third Super Bowl.
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: I recall struggling trying to figure out who to select, it really felt wide open going into the season, and when 10 of 11 of us select teams that didn't even make the playoffs, it turned out to be prophetic. No one selected the Eagles, so no tasty treat can be handed out.
And the 'Big Dummy Award' goes to... Seattle and Dallas were selected by six of us, both teams went 9-7 but didn't qualify for the playoffs. Four of us chose Green Bay, whose season was torpedoed by Aaron Rodger's injury, causing them to fall to 7-9, saddling Dutch, Bob806, Coyote and mjp with immeasurable painful shame.

And thanks to the steelrz for ending the season on an inglorious but still stupid note, too bad NE didn't follow suit -but- it does give us all someone to watch and root against or else it would be a boring party with lots of fat food.
NFC, eh I guess I can live with Philly over, hmmmmm, nobody?

I'm not familiar with the "oddsides" rule.
Fun stuff, Dutch... and funny to boot.

13. Super Bowl Champ?
Flyin J: New England
Dutch Oven: New England

Bob806: Green Bay
PoeticG: Cleveland
Coyote: New England
mjp28: Green Bay

Mudfly: Oakland
Answer: The Philadelphia Eagles defeated the New England Patriots 41-33 to win their first Super Bowl in franchise history, and first NFL title since they won back-to-back in 1948-49.
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: No one predicted an Eagles NFC Title, so obviously no winner here either.
And the 'Big Dummy Award' goes to... Kevin Hogan's secret lover, of course.

Thanks to everyone who participated! I was throwing around the idea of doing a draft version of this, I'd love some input on questions for it - I've never done a Dutch's Questions for the Draft.

#1 Selection, 1st QB taken, most selected position in the first round, Mr. Irrelevant (maybe only ask for position), how many kickers are going to be drafted (I said kickers for fun, maybe that could be asked for many positions), first team trading up (also could be added with whom they trade picks)...
I tried to put up questions that can be answered objectively, I thought about asking for ugly shoes or surprises, but that kind of stuff might be hard to answer and to judge who won.

Correct pick 1 point.
Correct trade up or traded picks 2 points?
Grades for maybe R1, R2, R3? Something like that.
Incorrect pick 0 points
Most points win. We certainly have time to put it together before the "THREE DAYS IN APRIL!" tournament.......reminds me the March Madness Tournament is coming up, defending champion mjp28
