You do not need a metric to know the Browns have the best running game in the NFL. Running back Nick Chubb leads the NFL in rushing and is averaging six yards along the way. However, when looking at Expected Points Added per play, it is not even close as the Browns blow the rest of the 31 teams out of the water.

Football Outsiders then has the Browns as a top-five pass-blocking unit as well, with PFF grading out this offensive line as a top-10 unit as well. Much of this has to do with the fact that there is not a single weak link in this unit.
Pocic included.
Looking at Pocic’s PFF marks, he is graded out as the fifth-best center in all of football right now with a grade of 74.1. In terms of run blocking, he falls sixth with a mark of 72.8, as he also sits middle of the road in terms of pass blocking.
Pocic has been charted with just one sack surrendered, just one pressure per game, and no penalties committed. All-in-all, Pocic has been a rock-solid performer for the Browns at a position that looked vulnerable after the exit of Tretter and the injury to Harris.
We now turn from his analytical standing to what he was able to put on tape against the Los Angeles Chargers.
