Although this was a loss for the Browns, anyone watching that Browns-Titans game know that Shedeur balled. He went for 23-42, 364 yards, 3 carries for 29 yards, 1 TD run, 3 TD passes, and 1pick, yet still Shedeur three dimes all over the place. They were forced to do what I been calling for - open up the playbook. The Browns defense didn't come to play at all, Judkins went 16 for 26, and they're O-line got bullied. In spite of the pick and a fumble by another player, Shedeur overcame all of that and he engineered a comeback and put them in the position to tie the game (which they shouldn't have had to do if Stefanski didn't go for 2 the previous drive). And what does Stefanski do? Take the ball OUT of Shedeur's hands (when he's cooking) and go wildcat gadget and it looked awful.
Coaching lost the Browns game due to coaching, and it was bad. For all of you who laughed at people like me who feel that Stefanski sabotaged Shedeur get a long look at the playcalls on each of the last 2 scoring drives. After everything that Shedeur had to overcome, leading them to 2 straight TD drives, yet the ball was taken out of his hands by Stefanski at the moment of truth, resulting in a loss for the Browns.
Was it incompetence, or sabotage? At this point it don't matter. Stefanski should be fired before the Browns next game, and Shedeur need to be named the starter for the remainder of the season. And the Browns need to be building round Shedeur in the 2026 draft and not thinking about a QB in the draft.
