The Kansas City Chiefs put up 21 points against the Cleveland Browns.
While that’s not particularly impressive, it was one of their better-scoring outings of the season.
The Chiefs have only scored 30 points twice this season.
That’s why Dan Orlovsky believes this team needs Marquise ‘Hollywood’ Brown in the worst possible way.
On ESPN’s “Get Up,” the former quarterback claimed that this offense had no juice whatsoever, especially on deep throws, so they need their speedster out there.

Fortunately for the Chiefs, that might be the case soon.
The initial expectation was that Brown would miss the entire season.
He’s ahead of schedule in his recovery and reportedly looked great in practice recently.
They might want to ease him back into action and slowly acclimate him to the offense.
Building rapport with the quarterback takes time; they don’t want to risk setbacks.
Also, with Patrick Mahomes’ injury status up in the air after leaving the win over the Browns and being replaced by Carson Wentz, that’s something to consider.
Still, if Mahomes is healthy, getting a prime reinforcement of this caliber for the most crucial stretch of the season might be the catalyst this team needs to finally live up to its potential.
