Bill Belichick praises Njoku, Chubb

The New England Patriots head coach heaped praise upon the two Cleveland Browns players.

The Cleveland Browns will be taking on the New England Patriots this week and as per usual it is head coach Bill Belichick praising opposing players. This week Belichick spoke highly of David Njoku and Nick Chubb. Comparing the tight end to Browns legend Ozzie Newsome and saying Chubb is “as good as anybody” they will see.

On one hand it is nice to hear the best coach of all time compliment Njoku and Chubb. On the other it is something that happens each and every week, even when the player(s) he is talking about may not be all that impressive. Usually it is a bit of a giveaway of who the Patriots plan to have a specific game plan for. Chubb currently leads the league in rushing and Njoku is off to the best start of his career. Continued success is expected for the former while the latter still has to prove to be a consistent performer.

Bill Belichick also said that Cleveland’s defense was “fast”, about the only compliment that can be given. The Browns defense has struggled all season long and it does not appear that they will turn things around any time soon.
