1. Kyler Murray, Quarterback

If the NFL season ended today, Kyler Murray might not be the league MVP, but he would surely be in the discussion. Murray is one of the most electrifying young quarterbacks in the game today and his star always seems to shine bright.

He can do it all. He can launch the ball down the field or he can escape the pocket and make plays with his feet, both to run and make throws. The Browns will need to constantly get pressure, but also contain Murray should the pocket collapse.

Through five games, Murray has the Cardinals sitting pretty at 5-0 while throwing for 1,512 yards, 10 touchdowns, and four interceptions. He has completed 75 percent of his passes, which leads the NFL.

He has also rushed 30 times for 110 yards and three touchdowns

In Week 5, Murray had a season-low 239 passing yards with a touchdown and just one-yard rushing, which was also the low point of the season. After the game, Murray had this to say:

"“I’m glad we won today, but we could be a lot better,” Murray said. “For me personally, I’m a little frustrated, but we won.”"

Murray is a former No. 1 overall pick back in 2019 and was also drafted ninth overall by the Oakland Athletics a year prior. Obviously, football worked out and the Browns will have to figure out a way to try and slow him down this Sunday.

The Cardinals can continue to roll through the early portion of their schedule and the Browns can shut a lot of people should they find a way to be victorious.
