Coming Soon: Peyton Hillis' 2011-2012 Season

Last season we kept you apprised of how Peyton Hillis was doing in each quarter of the season. This year we plan on doing the same thing. Hillis will be a key for the Browns to contend in games especially when we get to late November-early December. Last year Hillis rushed for 1177 yards, for him to surpass that this season he needs to average 73.5 yards per game. We'll see if he can do it, so stay tuned as our first Hillis check will be the Monday after Week 4.

In the third quarter of the NFL season the Cleveland Browns went 2-2, but could have easily won all four games. Hillis has continued to play well and has become the 3rd Browns runningback to score 11 touchdowns in a season. The other two are Jim Brown and Leroy Kelly. He also has been a contributor in the passing game. Here are Hillis' rushing stats in the past four games:

Here is our second Peyton Hillis post where we look at his statistics. In this quarter of the season the Browns went 2-2 with two big wins against the Super-Bowl Champions Saints and one of the best teams in the AFC the New England Patriots. Hillis was battling through some injuries during this quarter so some of his games his attempts and yardage totals seem somewhat low. Here are his stats from the last four games (please note Week 8 was the Brown's bye week):

Week 5: Atl 10 Att. 28 Yds.

Week 6: @Pit 12 Att. 41 Yds.

Week 7: @NO 16 Att. 69 Yds. 1 TD

Week 9: NE 29 Att. 184 Yds. 2 TDs

Totals from Weeks 5 - 9: 67 Att. 322 Yds. 4.8 Yards/Carry 3 TDs

Season Totals: 133 Att. 644 Yds. 4.8 Yards/Carry 7 TDs

This is a great one-handed catch by Browns RB Peyton Hillis from week 5 of the 2010 season against the Atlanta Falcons.

Peyton Hillis

On March 14th 2010 the Cleveland Browns traded away QB Brady Quinn to the Denver Broncos in exchange for RB/FB Peyton Hillis and some draft choices. At the time Hillis was not expected to make a large impact on the team considering the emergence of RB Jerome Harrison and the drafting of RB Monterio Hardesty. But due to injuries and ineffectiveness Hillis has been given a chance to play and through 4 games he has played well and been a bright spot in an otherwise pedantic start to the season. Hopefully after every four games the Browns play this season I will post Peyton Hillis' stats through those games, and since yesterday was the 4th game of the season here is a look at what Hillis has done:

Week 1: @ TB 9 Att. 41 Yds. 1 TD

Week 2: KC 8 Att. 35 Yds. 1 TD

Week 3: @ Bal 22 Att. 144 Yds. 1 TD

Week 4: Cin 27 Att. 102 Yds. 1 TD

Total through Week 4: 66 Att. 322 Yds. 4.9 Yards/Carry 4 TDs
