Admittedly with the injuries to the linebackers and offensive line I'm a little nervous about this game. With that being said, I think we win this one in a shootout.

Browns 37

Texans 34

I don't think it will be close at all. Browns by two or three scores. My guess: Browns 41-24

The Vegas lines are saying 48 points for the O/U and Browns are favorite by 10. I think Vegas is still leaning on potential. Cleveland is still working the kinks out.

Cleveland should have the running game going. Houston will play it safe on defense allowing no deep threat. It's dink and dunk Sunday.

Browns 24
Texans 17

Bet the Under and take the Texans to beat the spread.

Browns 42-10

Browns - 34

Texans - 13

Browns - 30
Houston- 17

You know they know this, and you know they're wanting to get Chubb two today so that he is alone in 6th. He should pass Motley in yards later this year.

p.s. Chubb has already surpassed Byner in Yds and TDs. Mack is next. Then the Pruitts next year.

We walk the dogs today.

Good guys - 34

Tex-uns - 17

Pad him today. Thanx, Purp! I had no idea he was close to rolling these milestones. After his fumblerewski, I REALLY expect a shockingly great day.

Unleash the Elves!

Dinner bell! Come to the table hungry!

As a side note, Baker Mayfield has already surpassed Tim Couch in yards and is now in 5th as the All-Time Passing Leader for the Browns. He is in 5th for TDs, as well.

He should easily pass Frank Ryan before Christmas in Yards and own 4th place, with only Kosar, Otto, and Sipe ahead of him. He isn't likely to move up in TDs this year, but he will pass Bernie Kosar in TDs next season, and *maybe* Frank Ryan.

He is already ahead of those legends in Comp % and QB Rating.


So, folks can say what they want about Mayfield, but he is just beginning his 4th season and the only people better than him in all of Browns history are the Team Legends. He has surpassed everyone else in that loooooong list in every meaningful way.

Oh, and he is tied for 7th All-Time in GWD: Game Winning Drives. His next one ties him with Otto in 5th place.

ok, last bit:

With at least 46 Yards today, Jarvis Landry will pass Josh Gordon for 17th All-Time in Browns Receiving.

There's nobody else on the roster even in the Top 30; they all rank below Greg Little and Fair Hooker. The closes is Higgins, but he isn't that close, yet.

Before the end of this season, however, Landry should pass Northcutt, Langhorne, Braylon, and maybe Kevin Johnson. If he somehow get 1200 yards this year, he will pass Brian Brennan and be sitting just outside the Top 10.
