Cleveland Browns 2022 Regular Season

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Why I think it's more than fair to judge Kevin for these 11 games is because a good football coach puts his team in position to win games. Yes,we know the limitations at qb, but what as a coach will you do too help him? Will you run quick routes and get the ball into receivers,te and rbs, so it's third and short or call bs and have a million penalties and it's 3rd and 18 and you can only win with superior talent?

I don't expect either the Browns or Steelers to make the playoffs this year.

I'm expecting both Tomlin and Stefanski to keep their jobs.

I expect our organization to evaluate based on process--the things that are within someone's control. I hope they don't evaluate strictly on results.

As long as I see good coaching, I'm happy with Stefanski this year. On offense I'm going to be looking for pre-snap motion and motion at the snap, as well as if we transition into more receiver heavy sets.
 
This is so freaking frustrating. One of the main reasons why I can't stand Baker Mayfield is because due to his lack of accountability we have people questioning every single area of the team as if Baker was not the main, toxic reason for our failures last season.

That guy is toxic. So toxic that people are actually allowing themselves to question if KS is on the hot seat? Do people not understand by now that AB and KS are in sync? You're not getting rid of KS without questioning AB and I don't see a lot of people questioning AB.

All of these questions about the offense, play calling, defense, team chemistry, morale, all of the same common denominator. His name is Baker Mayfield. He is no longer here. He's in CAR playing for an average team with a coach who actually should be on the hot seat.

And I also have a hunch that a lot of people on the offensive side of the ball have been waiting for those things and they know that their QB was preventing them from doing that.

And I'm not saying that Jacoby Brissette is going to light it up but you can tell just from talking to the team that they are so ready for a new QB. A new leader. Someone who's not going to rock the boat and be all about himself.

You must have missed that sweet throw he made in preseason between two defenders that was almost a completion! :chuckle:
 
I think Stefanski is safe this year unless something incredibly bad happens and the Browns end up going like 4-13 or something totally unexpected.

And honestly, if the offense is really clicking in those last 3-4 games with Watson, everyone is gonna be super encouraged for next season no matter what the overall record is this season anyway.

I don't think a 5-12 record is out of the picture. We can easily suck with Brissett, and then Watson can look fucking terrible after not playing in two years.

As long as the process and coaching decisions are there, that should just end up with this season being a write-off for the offense.

I think Woods has to prove himself on defense or we're looking to upgrade our DC to someone who matches the same level as our Super Bowl aspirations next year.

I think the only way Stefanski's seat is hot is if he and Berry aren't in sync. If Berry wants to utilize more open sets to play to Watson's strengths, while Stefanski wants to play out of 12 personnel and lean on our running game, while refusing to go empty on passing downs, that's when I think we'd be looking at a new HC.... or at least taking play calling out of Stefanski's hands, turning him into the CEO, and hiring an OC who can actually run the offense.
 
I can’t imagine a scenario where record is why Stefanski is canned- no chance they’re scapegoating him knowing that the window starts in 2023.
There is only way way Stefanski gets fired after 2022...
