Is this what Stefanski coaching for his job looks like? Part 4
If Kevin Stefanski had truly been on the hot seat coaching against the Bengals Sunday afternoon, he would’ve almost certainly been fired at halftime.

In the waning seconds of the second quarter Sunday vs. the Bengals, Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski engineered a clock miscue that rings louder than church bells at 9 a.m. when you’re hungover. The Bengals’ unsuccessful third-down play concluded with 42 seconds remaining; an NFL play clock is 40 seconds. Cincinnati was clearly within Joe… read more

Kevin Stefanski took over a 6-10 Browns team from 2019 and won 11 games in his first year as the head coach. He and Paul Brown are the only coaches in the franchise’s history with more than one 11-win season; not even Marty Schottenheimer, from Cleveland’s heyday in the late 1980s, can claim that.

Usually a head coach is indirectly responsible for what takes place on the field. It’s his job to design a game plan and have the team prepared and ready to compete.

With the NFL rumor mill continually churning out nonsense like three Boomhauers debating each other on Adderall, it’s tough to know what’s valid enough to swipe right on. It seems pretty clear (as we’ve covered in the sections leading up to this one) that Kevin Stefanski is unlikely to be relieved of his duties as… read more

If the Browns organization were a power plant that ran on dysfunction, they’d have produced enough fuel in any given week to light up the Eastern Seaboard for half a century. This present arrangement is the best Cleveland’s had since the current iteration of the team reentered existence two and a half decades ago. After… read more

“Mike Vrabel” is one of the hottest names on the head coaching market for the upcoming hiring phase of the NFL calendar. Is Cleveland the best fit?

My first Black and Gold Christmas wish list
Iām not from the Pittsburgh area, nor do I have family there. I was not born into this fan base. No one taught me to root for the Black and Gold. My parents were horse people that did not play or watch sports at all, so football was never on in my house as I… read more
