2. Anthony Brown scores four touchdowns

Only one time this season has Anthony Brown finished a game with more than two total touchdowns. That came all the way back on Sept. 25 against Arizona when he threw three touchdown passes but didn’t run one in. That was his most productive game of the year.

Fast forward to Oct. 30 and he’s fresh off a two-interception, one total touchdown performance against UCLA and he’s hungry to silence some doubters.

I thought his performance against UCLA was actually really good despite the two second-half picks. He was accurate all day long and got Oregon in position to score on a regular basis before Travis Dye vulture some of his touchdowns inside the five. He finished with 381 total yards and just one score.

We’re going to see Brown finish some of those drives on his own this week, capping off big plays with touchdowns of his own.

I’m thinking Brown runs in two touchdowns and passes for two for his best performance of the year.
