Nick Chubb Backs Browns Offense To Be One Of NFL’s Best
Browns RB Nick Chubb says the Cleveland offense has the potential to be one of the best in the NFL.
One way Cleveland can improve upon last year is to become more unpredictable, a strategy Nick Chubb is central to.
The Browns have spent the offseason working on ways to get Nick Chubb more involved in the passing game. It’s something he hasn’t done since 2019 in an offense featuring Baker Mayfield, Jarvis Landry and Odell Beckham Jr.

Chubb’s single-season high in receptions is 40, which came in 2021.
Heading into 2023, increased variation from Chubb is a necessity as well as a new game plan. Kareem Hunt has left Cleveland and Jerome Ford still hasn’t recovered from injury. Chubb will have to contribute more in their absence.
“I think it will (open up the offense),” Chubb said.Â
“Not knowing what we’re going to do if I’m in the game. Last year I was just mostly (playing) first, second down, so I kind of gave them an idea of what we’re going to do. But hopefully this year will be different with me doing more things.”

“Not so much (pressure). I know those guys behind me are prepared well every day with coach Stump (Mitchell) and here at practice,” Chubb said. “So I know if anything happens, those guys will be ready to go out there and compete and make plays for this team.
“I think there’s that potential to be one of the best offenses in the NFL,” Chubb said.
“It depends on us executing every day and alignment, assignment, playing fast, but being smart.
“Whatever it takes, I’m excited for it,” he said.
