Cleveland Browns vs Chiefs: 4 Kansas City players to be concerned with

1. Patrick Mahomes, Quarterback

I know, surprising right? The Browns need to try and figure out a way to slow down Patrick Mahomes, the best quarterback in the NFL.

Cleveland won’t be able to stop Mahomes completely, which is why they need to just focus on slowing him down and making it as hard as possible on him.

Mahomes is only 25 years old and it seems as if it would take years just to list off all of his accolades. Super Bowl MVP, NFL MVP, and NFL Offensive Player of the Year just to name a few. To say the Browns should be concerned about Mahomes on Sunday is a severe understatement.

When watching Mahomes, it seems as if he can just take total control over the game and is able to do whatever he wants, whenever he wants. There is no doubt that Browns’ defensive coordinator Joe Woods has been staying up at night trying to think of ways to slow Mahomes down.

Cleveland’s best hope is to force pressure on Mahomes and hope he makes a mistake or two. With Myles Garrett, Jadeveon Clowney, and others, the Browns certainly have the firepower to force pressure on Mahomes.

This is the first time in a long time it feels as the Browns can compete with one of the league’s best teams. The talent is there, the coaching is there. Now it is up to the players to produce on the field.
