5 things to watch as the Chiefs host the Browns in season opener

To open the 2021 regular season, the Kansas City Chiefs may be facing one of their toughest challengers in the AFC.

The Cleveland Browns have become a popular pick to be this year’s main competitor to the Chiefs’ throne at the top of the conference. Last season, it was the Buffalo Bills, and the year before, it was the Baltimore Ravens. The Browns are now gaining hype as a legitimate Super Bowl contender — and I actually don’t think it’s a stretch.

They have one of the deepest rosters in the league, a great coaching staff, high-end players at important positions and momentum from their impressive second half of 2020.
