Some observations from the stats of both teams over the last four games (in which we both played two road games followed by two home games) follow. Even though the Browns haven't had much luck this year they match up well with KC allowing only 78 rushing yards per game at home. If they can hold onto the ball I think they're going to give the Chiefs a run for their money. Also think they're going to come out with something to prove after the Braylon Edwards/Charlie Frye dust up this week. Hopefully the Chiefs can continue their sterling performance against number one receivers and keep Winslow out of the seam.
