The first poll question, which was only asked locally to the Browns audience, asked how Cleveland fans felt about him leaving the team.<\/p>\n<p id=\"dKH9Pi\">50% of fans said that even after drafting two running backs, Cleveland still should\u2019ve re-signed him. 22% said that it was a bad decision, and Cleveland will regret it. 17% of fans said they were on the fence, but were ok with the decision. Lastly, 11% felt Chubb may never be the same, and the Browns got younger \u2014 so we didn\u2019t need him back. It\u2019s still a wide range of support for Chubb. It\u2019s tough because I still wanted the team to re-sign him, but after drafting two running backs high, it wouldn\u2019t have really done anyone any favors at that point to retain him.<\/p>\n<p id=\"KKEUaP\">On a national level, 65% of fans think that Chubb made a mistake by signing with the Texans. That result seems odd \u2014 I mean, if Cleveland didn\u2019t want Chubb back at this point, what\u2019s he supposed to do, just retire?<\/p>\n<div>\n<figure><span data-original=\"https:\/\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/uploads\/chorus_asset\/file\/26028696\/_National_3_61125.png\"> <picture data-cdata=\"{&quot;asset_id&quot;:26028696,&quot;ratio&quot;:&quot;*&quot;}\" data-cid=\"site\/picture_element-1750037921_2311_56484\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/thumbor\/uVhbEZ_rstvHwWwEiWreIQVpFNs=\/0x0:1080x1350\/320x0\/filters:focal(0x0:1080x1350):format(webp):no_upscale()\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/uploads\/chorus_asset\/file\/26028696\/_National_3_61125.png 320w, https:\/\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/thumbor\/RGY5SzI1cw4Z7lcEor_MWlw3-L0=\/0x0:1080x1350\/520x0\/filters:focal(0x0:1080x1350):format(webp):no_upscale()\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/uploads\/chorus_asset\/file\/26028696\/_National_3_61125.png 520w, https:\/\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/thumbor\/mUzv3QMycrH9G4mgWVwHKqqkNZM=\/0x0:1080x1350\/720x0\/filters:focal(0x0:1080x1350):format(webp):no_upscale()\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/uploads\/chorus_asset\/file\/26028696\/_National_3_61125.png 720w, https:\/\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/thumbor\/RpoRwVA7newEVq3AW6okuSa1PZk=\/0x0:1080x1350\/920x0\/filters:focal(0x0:1080x1350):format(webp):no_upscale()\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/uploads\/chorus_asset\/file\/26028696\/_National_3_61125.png 920w, https:\/\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/thumbor\/zkonUOTxphY_fwODQGtl6AoCVwI=\/0x0:1080x1350\/1120x0\/filters:focal(0x0:1080x1350):format(webp):no_upscale()\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/uploads\/chorus_asset\/file\/26028696\/_National_3_61125.png 1120w, https:\/\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/thumbor\/VDnzvh2e8sGQynhsVPT7m49Ziwk=\/0x0:1080x1350\/1320x0\/filters:focal(0x0:1080x1350):format(webp):no_upscale()\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/uploads\/chorus_asset\/file\/26028696\/_National_3_61125.png 1320w, https:\/\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/thumbor\/yr6AAiS8FUNMu8Kfg1m9YNakwQI=\/0x0:1080x1350\/1520x0\/filters:focal(0x0:1080x1350):format(webp):no_upscale()\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/uploads\/chorus_asset\/file\/26028696\/_National_3_61125.png 1520w, https:\/\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/thumbor\/zWQZsKGgbwFpMmuKjXIZypcy3Qk=\/0x0:1080x1350\/1720x0\/filters:focal(0x0:1080x1350):format(webp):no_upscale()\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/uploads\/chorus_asset\/file\/26028696\/_National_3_61125.png 1720w, https:\/\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/thumbor\/7FB0ZHReyDoMDotClOcA8lDin08=\/0x0:1080x1350\/1920x0\/filters:focal(0x0:1080x1350):format(webp):no_upscale()\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/uploads\/chorus_asset\/file\/26028696\/_National_3_61125.png 1920w\" type=\"image\/webp\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1221px) 846px, (min-width: 880px) calc(100vw -
