Nick Chubb suffers foot injury against Chiefs; leaves game

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb suffered a foot injury as the Browns battled the Kansas City Chiefs.

Cleveland Browns star running back Nick Chubb was injured during the game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Nick Chubb suffered a foot injury during the third quarter. Chubb wasn’t contacted during the injury, and limped off the field after a bad step.

Under his own power, Chubb walked into the locker room with medical trainers. The team will continue to evaluate him.

Chubb had an uncharacteristically poor game against the Chiefs. The running back moved the ball well on the ground. Chubb had 41 yards on nine carries before the injury.

However, Chubb fumbled the ball as it was punched out on a nine-yard run. The running back had a pass attempt ripped from his hands by the Chiefs. The interception won’t show up in his stat column, but it was his fault.

The Browns have suffered a rash of enemies against the Kansas City Chiefs. The team had a strong scare when defensive end Myles Garrett suffered an eye injury.  The Browns must end the game healthy. The team is currently losing to the Chiefs 21-7 in the third quarter.

Browns DT Shelby Harris leaves game with an elbow injury

Cleveland Browns defensive tackle Shelby Harris left the game against the Kansas City Chiefs with an elbow injury. He is questionable to return

Cleveland Browns defensive tackle Shelby Harris left the game against the Kansas City Chiefs with an elbow injury. Harris suffered the injury during the waning minutes of the first half. Harris able to walk off the field with trainers. He is questionable to return to the game.

The Browns disparately need Harris against the Chiefs. The Browns’ defensive line have played pathetically against the Chiefs’ banged up offensive line. The Chiefs have been able to move the ball with ease against the Browns front four.

The Browns defense have suffered a handful of injuries against the Chiefs. The team lost starting cornerback M.J. Emerson Jr. to a concussion at the start of the game. Myles Garrett suffered a scary eye injury that kept him off the field. Garrett’s return coincided with Harris’s injury.

Hopefully, the team is able to stay healthy for the remainder of the game. The Browns are down 21-0 to the Chiefs in the third quarter.

Myles Garrett injury update: the latest on Browns star DE

Cleveland Browns star defensive end Myles Garrett left the game against the Kansas City Chiefs with an eye injury.

Cleveland Browns star defensive end Myles Garrett left the game against the Kansas City Chiefs with an eye injury.

The reigning defensive player of the year was trying to work around Chiefs’ offensive lineman Joe Thuney when he suffered the injury. It looked like Thuney may have inadvertently hit Garrett through his face mask. He is the second defensive starter to leave the game, following cornerback Martin Emerson Jr.

Garrett immediately threw off his helmet during the play and writhed on the ground in pain. Garrett was able to get immediate medical attention and walked off the field with trainers. He went right to the locker room.

The players on the Chiefs were incredibly worried about Garrett. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes flagged down medical trainers immediately after the play ended. Thuney made sure to console Garrett as he made his way off the field.

It was telling how much respect the Chiefs have for Garrett. Especially, as the team could’ve easily celebrated the touchdown they scored on the play.

The Browns put a visor on Garrett’s helmet as he continued to be examined by the medical staff. He is questionable to return.

Martin Emerson Jr. injury update: Browns CB ruled out with concussion

Cleveland Browns cornerback M.J. Emerson Jr. left the game against the Kansas City Chiefs to be evaluated for a concussion.

Cleveland Browns starting cornerback M.J. Emerson Jr. left the game against the Kansas City Chiefs to be evaluated for a concussion. Emerson played well to start the game. The cornerback has been around the ball constantly. Eventually, his presence will be rewarded with an interception.

Emerson left the game during the first quarter after bouncing off a running back. Emerson was quickly moved to the locker room for a proper evaluation.

He has been ruled out the rest of the game.

The Browns are down one starting cornerback with Greg Newsome II put on injured reserve earlier this week. The Browns cannot afford to lose another cornerback.

Emerson has played inconsistently this year. The cornerback was expected to leap to stardom this season. Unfortunately, the cornerback has been burned by some of the best wide receivers in the NFL. Emerson must remain healthy to finish the season strong.

Browns, Chiefs have huge viewership in Week 1

Browns, Chiefs was a great game with high expectations. A lot of people agreed and tuned in according to information released by CBS:

The Cleveland Browns and Kansas City Chiefs matchup in Week 1 was bound to be a good one. The Chiefs were coming off back to back Super Bowl appearances, with one win, while the Browns were coming off their first playoff appearance in a long-time and were seen as real challengers to Kansas City.

The game itself proved to be everything that was expected. It was a closely contested battle in the fourth quarter between two very good teams. While Cleveland came up short in the end, they proved that they belonged on the field. The Chiefs showed just how hard it is to beat them.

On Tuesday came word that the expectations for the game, and the game flow itself, helped the viewership for CBS:

 

Not only did the game have expectations but both fan bases are passionate about their teams. Browns fans have been engaging in putrid affairs from their team for decades and are not about to miss the quality product put on the field. Fans of Kansas City know how exciting the offense is and wanted to see how their new offensive line came together.

The result wasn’t what Cleveland wanted but the team is hoping to have another crack at the Chiefs in the playoffs. Based on the ratings in Week 1, television networks would love that as well.

Browns vs. Chiefs game recap: Everything we know

Despite a defeat, we learned a lot about the Browns in Week 1:

The Cleveland Browns faced off with the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 1 in a game that had many excited going into it. The game didn’t disappoint the general NFL fan but led to much disappointment for fans of the visiting team.

The Browns fell to the Chiefs 33 – 29 despite holding the lead for the majority of the game. Unfortunately, timely plays by the defending AFC champions and poor plays by the hopeful Browns kept, at least, two streaks alive: Kansas City has won their last nine openers while Cleveland hasn’t won in Week 1 since 2004.

It isn’t all doom and gloom for the Browns but the loss will be hard to take given how the game action went. With leads of 8 – 0, 15 – 3 and 22 – 10, the brown and orange held a commanding lead into the middle of the third quarter. They bumped the lead back up to nine points (29 – 20) early in the 4th but that was all for their scoring.

Here is what we know coming out of the game for the Browns.

5 reasons the Browns will beat the Chiefs in Week 1

The Browns can win in Week 1 versus the Chiefs. Here are five reasons they will win:

The Cleveland Browns face-off with the Kansas City Chiefs on the road in Week 1 of the NFL season. In what is expected to be the best game of the day, Cleveland is a 5.5 point underdog to the reigning AFC champions.

Following an exciting game in the divisional round of the NFL playoffs in 2020, both teams have made adjustments to their rosters to try to win a Super Bowl in 2021. The Browns added a ton of new defenders while maintaining continuity on offense while the Chiefs revamped their entire offensive line in one offseason following a brutal loss in the Super Bowl.

While Cleveland is the underdog in Week 1, many believe they will be fighting with Kansas City, along with the Buffalo Bills, for the AFC title this season. While Week 1 isn’t a must-win, especially in a 17 game regular season, it still could play a big role in tiebreakers at the end of the season and a win would set the teams off on the right foot.

Here are five reasons the Browns will beat the Chiefs in Week 1:

Browns Week 1 uniforms point to playoff revenge goal

While it might be coincidental, especially since the home team gets to pick their jersey first, the Browns could have revenge on their minds with their uniform choice for Week 1:

The Cleveland Browns have had their eye on their matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2021 since falling to them in the divisional round of the 2020 NFL playoffs. Coincidentally, the Browns get their chance at revenge in Week 1 at the very same spot that ended their previous season.

To a man, Cleveland has talked about turning the page from last season. From head coach Kevin Stefanski to quarterback Baker Mayfield, the clear focus has been about moving forward.

That doesn’t mean that the team doesn’t have revenge on their mind given the positioning of this game on their schedule. As their opening game of the season, the Browns have been able to put extra time and effort into preparing for a team that knocked them out last year.

In, perhaps, a sign of having a revenge goal, Cleveland will don the very same uniform combination that they wore against the Chiefs in the playoffs last year:

 

This video will show the Browns in those very same uniforms for that playoff game and, at the same time, one of the biggest reasons the team is seeking revenge:

With temperatures expected to be quite high on Sunday, white jerseys are a good choice. The Chiefs are expected to wear the same uniform combination, red jersey with white pants, that they wore in last year’s playoff game as well.
