One area where the Cleveland Browns are going to present serious issues for opponents is when the football is in the hands of one of the team’s running backs. Be it a rushing attempt or a pass reception, the Browns are loaded with elusive running backs.
Based on data from Pro Football Focus — and validated by the eyeball test — the Browns RBs are very difficult to tackle.
Three of the top four running backs in PFF’s elusiveness ratings in 2018 now play for the Browns, led by Nick Chubb and his NFL-best 103.3 score. Duke Johnson checks in at second on the list, while newcomer Kareem Hunt finished fourth in 2018.
