The Browns fell to the Chiefs 21-7 in Week 15 at Huntington Bank Field.

Turnovers plagued the Browns throughout the game, as errors on offense and special teams put the Chiefs in advantageous field positions. QB Jameis Winston threw three interceptions and WR James Proche II and RB Nick Chubb each fumbled before the 12-minute mark of the third quarter.

The Browns fall to 3-11 this season and will travel to Cincinnati to play the Bengals in Week 16.

By the time the Browns reached 100 net yards of total offense, they were down 21-0 with 10 minutes left in the third quarter.

Offensive turnovers were one of the main reasons the Browns fell behind on the scoreboard.

After the Browns defense forced a three-and-out on the Chiefs’ first possession, Proche fumbled the ensuing punt return, setting the Chiefs up for a three-play touchdown drive.

Two drives later, Winston led the Browns on a nine-play, 44-yard drive to the Kansas City 36-yard line, but threw a deep strike into the end zone off S. Bryan Cook for the Browns’ first turnover of the day intercepted.

The Browns gained some momentum at halftime when Chiefs K Harrison Butker missed a 29-yard field goal at the end of the second quarter, but the momentum soon faded. On the first play of the second half, Winston threw a short pass to Chubb, who was unable to secure the catch. The ball landed in the arms of LB Nick Bolton for Winston’s second interception of the day and the Chiefs went on another scoring drive.

Facing a 21-0 deficit, they needed an answer and took over the Browns’ offense at the Cleveland 33-yard line. On the first play of the drive, LB Leo Chenal knocked the ball out of Chubb’s arms and the Chiefs got the ball right back.

After finally reaching the end zone, the Browns had a chance to make it a one-score game in the fourth quarter. Winston rolled out of the pocket on first down at the Kansas City 29-yard line and unleashed a deep ball intended for WR Michael Woods II, which missed the target well and fell into the hands of CB Trent McDuffie.

QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson came into the game for Winston after his third interception of the day, but threw an interception of his own for the Browns’ sixth turnover of the day.

Jerome Ford provided the spark in the second half

After failing to find the end zone in the first half, RB Jerome Ford ran for a 62-yard touchdown to get the Browns on the scoreboard. Ford took the handoff, jumped to the right, showed off his game-breaking speed and charged toward the score.

Ford, who took over at running back after Chubb left in the third quarter with a foot injury, averaged over 11.5 yards per touchdown and finished the game with 104 total yards and the touchdown.

Ford was one of the few bright spots for the Browns’ offense, which struggled to move the ball all game.

WR Jerry Jeudy was another, posting a team-high 108 receiving yards on 11 receptions. For the first time in his five-year career, Jeudy eclipsed 4,000 receiving yards and 1,000 receiving yards in a single season.

The Browns’ pass rush struggled to pressure Mahomes as they failed to sack the quarterback. DE Myles Garrett finished the game with three quarterback hits and a tackle for loss, but struggled to overcome the double-team blocks the Chiefs sent his way.

Early in the second quarter, Garrett fought a pass from Mahomes at the line of scrimmage and nearly made an interception.

While the Browns allowed 21 points, field position played a big role in two of the Chiefs’ three touchdown drives.

Their first touchdown drive started after Proche’s fumble at the Cleveland 21-yard line. Their third score came after Winston’s first interception of the day and moved the Chiefs to the 34-yard line.

Outside of three scoring drives, the Browns held the Chiefs at bay in the first half with four punts and a missed field goal. On their final six possessions of the game, the Chiefs pummeled five times and turned the ball over once on downs, but the Browns’ offense was never able to take advantage.
