The Cleveland Browns have a schedule loaded with star power on the other side of the ball. A few include Tyreek Hill, Deshaun Watson, Drew Brees and Kahlil Mack, but here are the top 5 to keep an eye on going into the 2018 season.

Heading into the 2018 Season, there’s plenty reason to think the Cleveland Browns will be more successful than in recent years.

This feeling is partly because of the players they’ve added, but also due to the fact that they have nowhere to go but up after winning just one game the past two seasons.

In order to get better though, they’re going to have to focus on stopping some tough players who happen to be on their schedule in 2018. Here we look at the five biggest names they’re going to face this year.

5. Cam Newton, Quarterback, Carolina Panthers (Week 14)

In a division where the Browns see Andy Dalton, Ben Roethlisberger and Joe Flacco twice a year, dealing with a dual threat quarterback isn’t something Cleveland sees a lot. That being said handling a 6’5″, 245lbs Cam Newton is going to be no easy task.

Cam will have new, young weapons around him including second year running back Christian McCaffrey and rookie receiver DJ Moore. It’s near impossible to stop Cam but the Browns will have to limit him to pull out a win in week 14.
