3 reasons the Cleveland Browns will defeat the Falcons in Week 4
No. 1: Nick Freaking Chubb
It is such a great feeling knowing that we get to watch Nicholas Jamaal Chubb run the football every single week.
After the first three weeks of the season, Chubb leads the NFL in rushing with 341 yards on 5.5 yards per carry. He is tied for the league lead in rushing touchdowns with four. He’s rushed for over 100 yards in all three games.
Atlanta doesn’t do the best when it comes to stopping the run, as they surrender 109.3 yards per game and 4.8 yards per attempt. That certainly looks like the perfect recipe for Chubb to continue to do his thing.
Let us not forget Kareem Hunt, who is the perfect complimentary player to Chubb and can also carve this defense up. He has rushed for 151 yards and a score in the early goings.
Cleveland leads the league in rushing, going for 190.7 yards per game. The offensive line deserves a ton of credit for that success as they have played at an elite level for the most part. The Browns’ identity is running the rock, then setting up the play action, so this matchup is highly favorable for them to continue to produce.
