Rogers' Early 3-Game NFL Report!
(NFL) Cleveland vs. Kansas City, 12/27/2015 8:00 AM, Score: 13 - 17
Point Spread: -11.50 | -102.00 Kansas City (Home)
Result: Loss
*8* play on Chiefs.

The Cleveland Browns are coming off a blowout loss to Seattle last week, and there's no reason to think they'll have any more success on the road in Kansas City. The Chiefs are the hottest team in the NFL, winners of eight straight. This is still a must win for the home team, while the Browns are just going through the motions.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Johnny Manziel - He's got a long way to go before you can say he's capable of being an every day NFL quarterback. He's thrown for 1,364 yards with seven TDs and four INTs appearing in eight games this year, and six of those were losses.

2. Previous History - The Browns have lost six of seven on the road, and eight of their last nine overall. Six of those eight losses came by a double-digit margin.

3. X-Factor - The Browns are 0-5 ATS in their last five versus a team with a winning record.

Selection: This is a play on the Kansas City Chiefs (8*)
