The Browns know who they are as an offensive team: run the damn ball. And the running back room reflects this aspect.
This team is chock full of exceptional running backs in the spirit of Cleveland Browns of ole with tandems such as, Kevin Mack/Earnest Byner, Ernie Green/Jim Brown, Greg Pruitt/Mike Pruitt, Marion Motley/Dub Jones, Leroy Kelly/Ernie Green, Leroy Hoard/Eric Metcalf, and the greatest NFL running back tandem of all time with Jim Brown/Bobby Mitchell.
It is just tradition.
And now, Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt.
But that list does not stop there. D’Ernest Johnson has tossed his hat in the ring as one of the better running backs currently on this roster.
