Final Score: Chiefs best Browns 33-29 in season opener

From the first few snaps of the game, it was clear the Cleveland Browns planned to push the Kansas City Chiefs around in the trenches.

Cleveland had the ball first and proceeded to methodically march up the field 75 yards in 13 plays — leaning heavily on its running game both for chunk yards and to open up play-action and bootleg passes. The Browns mixed in a healthy dose of tight end Austin Hooper and running back Nick Chubb on its first drive. Hooper had three catches for 27 yards, including a first-down conversion when it was fourth-and-three in the red zone.
