What’s up with Cleveland Browns coach Kevin Stefanski?

I just don’t understand what Kevin Stefanski is doing with the offensive play calling these days. In the opening drive by the Browns they went on a nice 84-yard drive where their running back D’Ernest Johnson ran wild for 58 yards. I understand that teams adjust as the game goes on, but Stefanski abandoned the run game the rest of the way and when he would try and run the team was already down big.

This is being written prior to the post-game press conference by Stefanski, but I hope I don’t hear him say that he has to do better again because he’s always taking the blame for his team in losses and doesn’t seem to put the accountability on his players at times.

His team played very poorly today and yes some of that falls back on the coach but the other half falls on his players that should have tried to play better today.

Now the Browns must try and recover after the deflating loss and try to get a win against the Lions next week. Cleveland’s playoff chances took a serious blow Sunday. Can Stefanski rally his troops still?

As I mentioned above about Woods, I too am very concerned about how Stefanski hasn’t been able to get that consistency from his players as well. As I believe the team is heading in the right direction, this season has been very concerning.

Next. Injury added to insult, Mayfield out against Pats. dark

The swings from week to week are not good for a team that had aspirations of a Super Bowl in its future.
