Prediction
As mentioned previously, the Chiefs are structured a lot like the Seahawks. With how well the Chiefs can run the ball, play stingy defense, and pass the ball efficiently without turning it over, they look identical to Seattle.
With that in mind, it is hard to pick the Browns to win seeing what happened just a week ago. The Browns defense has been struggling all year-long against the run. Expect that to continue on Sunday against the trio of Smith, Ware and West.
Combining that with how well Smith has been throwing the ball, the Browns are likely going to give up many points.
Then on offense, the Browns will be forced to throw the ball often. Doing that will be tough with the lack of success they have had in the run game.
The Chiefs should rush Manziel consistently. Seeing how bad the protection was against Seattle, Cleveland will not be able to suddenly improve and quell the Chiefs this weekend. The Browns are going to lose their final road game of 2015.
