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

    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.

    Geez, I know this has nothing to do with this thread or even football... but Kobe Bryant was killed in a helicopter accident about three hours ago.

    Gets longer every year. Seems to me we had quite a few season predictors join the club this year.?

    We were thinking we would have a good coach who could use the star to open it up for Higgins underneath, but we had to go for home runs all the time. We also thought Baker would play like he could read defenses and not lock in for INTs. In the end it's Lucy's fault. Wiff!??‍♀️

    8. Who leads the Browns in reception yards? How many yards?

    Zombo: OBJ, 1305

    jcam222: OBJ, 1100

    Ibleedbrown: Higgins, 822

    Mudfly: OBJ, 1307

    Bob806: OBJ, 1116

    PoeticG: OBJ, 2000

    TexasAg1969: OBJ, 1200

    Sdbacker80: OBJ, 1100

    Gipper: OBJ, 1188

    Coyote: OBJ, 1252

    DBone: OBJ, 1160

    mjp28: OBJ, 1601

    Tour2ma: OBJ, 1249

    Nero: OBJ, 1200

    Flugel: OBJ, 1275

    gumby: OBJ, 1294

    DutchOven: OBJ, 975

    Answer: Jarvis Landry has a breakout season, leading the Browns with 1174 receiving yards, averaging 14.1 yards per catch. 

    Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: With OBJ on the roster, we figured he'd push Landry into the #2 role, and easily lead the team in receiving yards. Instead, Landry had his best yards per reception season of his career, and beat out OBJ by 139 yards. To be fair, OBJ did nurse a season-long nagging core injury, and the fact that he often ran routes that didn't exist in the playbook didn't help his cause. No one predicted a Landry win, so no winner for this question. I reward everyone no points, and may God have mercy on all your souls. 

    And the 'Big Dummy Award' goes to... While everyone but one person named OBJ, it seems obvious to give this award to Ibleedbrown, since Higgins had all of 55 yards receiving last season, slightly below his prediction of 822. But strangely enough, there was a prediction that was farther off - PoeticG's OBJ prediction of 2000 yards receiving was an astounding 965 yards off the mark! Go big or go home, indeed.
