DYNAMIC DUOBrowns WR Braylon Edwards and TE Kellen Winslow became the first dBrowns history to each record 1,000 yards receiving in the same season.

The opposing defense has to pick their poison, double either myself or Brasaid Winslow. Braylon is good to have as a catalyst on this offense beche is getting open and beating his man. Opposing defenses have to accouboth of us on the field and then it creates opportunities for other players.

Edwards became the sixth receiver in Browns history to eclipse the 1,000mark in a single season, setting the franchise record for most receiving

in a single season. Winslow joined Edwards as the seventh Browns receeclipse the 1,000-yard mark in a season.
