Answer: The Browns scored 335 points (20.9/game) and allowed 393 points (24.6/game) in 2019.
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: Safe to say, optimism was running rampant going into this season, especially for the offense. Unfortunately, with the exception of the Baltimore game, the offense was usually a disorganized mess, scoring a point and a half less per game than in 2018. The defense wasn't much to look at either, especially in the last month when the Browns pass rush was MIA. No one was really that close with either prediction, but DBone was the closest on BOTH points scored and allowed!
And the 'Big Dummy Award' goes to... The rest of us? I mean, everyone was way off, but there's some hilarious shenanigans going on here... mjp with the Browns scoring 501 points! Ibleedbrown with the Browns allowing only 202! Gipper with the Brownies allowing 222! Classic stuff there gents! But the poster extra-dummy on this one would be PoeticG, who was in a different area code on both his picks.

Answer: Baker Mayfield, in his second NFL season, threw for 3827 yards with 22 touchdowns and 21 interceptions.
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: There could be many explanations for Mayfield's regression in his sophomore year.... he slacked off working on and off the field going into the season, the offense did not cater to his strengths, players weren't on the same page with him because they missed OTA's and chunks of training camp, perhaps the NFL caught up with Mayfield's tendencies, and a weak OLine. Probably all the above. DBone wins again, rather easily.
And the 'Big Dummy Award' goes to... The rest of us were so, so far off. Mayfield had a 93.7 QB rating in 2018, it plummeted to 78.8 in 2019. Our sky-high predictions, of course, look silly now. And in the land of silly Mayfield predictions, PoeticG was the king of silliness.

Remind me to ask D Bone for some lotto numbers next time he’s on.

Great thread, my only preseason prediction was w-l of 10-6 which makes me one of the losers.

I think this year we will all get a box of Forrest Gump chocolates-with a new HC & GM we have no idea what were gonna get.?

7. Who leads the Browns in receptions? How many receptions?
Zombo: Landry, 100
jcam222: OBJ, 88
Ibleedbrown: Higgins, 86
Mudfly: Landry, 101
Bob806: Landry, 82
PoeticG: Landry, 120
TexasAg1969: Higgins, 98
Sdbacker80: Landry, 82
Gipper: OBJ, 88
Coyote: OBJ, 92
DBone: Landry, 101
mjp28: Landry, 101
Tour2ma: Landry, 105
Nero: Landry, 90
Flugel: OBJ, 92
gumby: Landry, 107
DutchOven: Landry, 85
Answer: Jarvis Landry led the Browns with 83 receptions.
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: With Mayfield's mediocre passing stats came over-optimistic receiving predictions. Overall Landry had the best season in his career, but did it with a relatively low reception total (for him). Bob806 and Sdbacker80 almost nailed this question on it's head.
And the 'Big Dummy Award' goes to... A combination of an early-season injury and getting in Freddie's doghouse when he came back (for reasons still murky) resulted in the lofty predictions by Ibleedbrown and TexasAg1969 for one Rashard Higgins being laughably off-base. Coming off a 2018 season where Higgins had a breakthrough as somewhat of a go-to guy for Baker, it seemed like a solid Darkhorse pick. Instead, he had a grand total of 4 receptions.

Weird how I envision shotgun wedding memes when I think of the Browns' GM hire...... Poor future unlucky bastard.
