The Cleveland Browns are enjoying a smooth 4-2 start to the season, but have had to have some magic happen to get there. For one player specifically, Dehshawn Watson, that start has made him the center of attention in their hot start. He has not played extremely well, but he has played well enough to win games for them.

In their four wins, all four have been due to game-winning drives. Watson has led the charge on all four of those, and it has him leading the way among NFL quarterbacks in that category.
