Chiefs Game Sunday: Chiefs vs Browns odds and prediction for NFL Week 1 game

The regular season is set to get underway this weekend in the NFL, and two teams with high hopes to start the year get their campaigns started against one another as the Cleveland Browns visit the K.C. Chiefs in one of the bigger matchups of Week 1.

For Browns players and fans, the chance to take on the Chiefs in Week 1 is a chance to prove that they can expect new things in 2021. The Chiefs sent them packing in the postseason just last winter on their way to another Super Bowl, and the Chiefs have big things to prove again after remaking their offense live.

For the Browns, it’s also the first chance to see if star wideout Odell Beckham, Jr. is healthy after an ACL tear last season. On defense, the arrival of new signings like Troy Hill and John Johnson III in the secondary will be interesting to watch as Grant Delpit comes back from injury and rookie Greg Newsome joins the unit. Up front Jadeveon Clowney will hope to silence his doubters up front opposite Myles Garrett.

As for the Chiefs, they’ve completely rebuilt an offensive line (which features three rookies) in front of Patrick Mahomes and will face a stiff test against Joe Woods’ defense, although they are just coming together themselves.

Browns vs Chiefs Prediction Week 1

The Browns should look like a different team by season’s end than they will in Week 1, which isn’t to say they should be overlooked coming into Arrowhead. Rather, it’s admitting that most young teams need time to come together and there are simply too many new parts to believe that they are as good as they will be late in the season.

It also helps the Chiefs that Andy Reid is such a proven product overall and comes into September very, very prepared for the challengers ahead. Patrick Mahomes has never lost in September so far in his NFL career, and he’s already claimed the Chiefs have a goal of 20-0 after having completed a perfect preseason. The only thing that matters is the Super Bowl, of course, but the Chiefs sound ready to make a weekly statement and it begins here against the visiting Browns.

Prediction: Chiefs 30, Browns 20
