Browns: 10 offseason moves Browns must make to win Super Bowl LVI next season
7. Get Chubb and Hunt on field together
As vaccines roll out, ideally, Kevin Stefanski will have a true offseason to work with his team with mini camps and OTAs, in addition to an actual preseason.
With this in mind, it’s imperative Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt are on the field together, because when it happens, well, Kendall Lamm becomes a touchdown threat.
The potential of having Chubb and Hunt on the field together could be a weapon that sets the league on fire. Stefanski’s was asked about it earlier in the season, and the general gist of his answer was that there wasn’t enough time to implement it due to the strange offseason.
Chubb enters the final year of his contract in 2021, and re-signing him should be a top priority. I know, Hunt was extended and running backs can be found, but Chubb is at an elite level when it comes to ripping off big runs. He’s also the most elusive back in the league.
Baker may not be Patrick Mahomes, but perhaps the improved play of Mayfield, with Hunt and Chubb on the field together, causing havoc, can be what lifts the Browns over the Chiefs.
