In the aftermath of their third consecutive defeat, Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski appears to be reevaluating his team’s offensive strategy. Just days after dismissing the idea of relinquishing playcalling duties, Stefanski hinted that he may consider delegating those responsibilities to offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey.
When questioned about the possibility of a change, Stefanski adopted a more open-minded tone, suggesting that he would examine all aspects of the team’s offensive operation. “We’re looking at everything,” he said. “Ken has been a fantastic partner in this process, and we’ll assess what’s working and what isn’t.”
The Browns’ struggles on offense have been a major concern, with the team failing to score 20 points in five consecutive games – a franchise record since their return to Cleveland in 1999. Stefanski, who has called plays since his arrival in 2020, may be willing to adapt his approach to spark a turnaround.
Despite Deshaun Watson’s underwhelming performance, Stefanski reaffirmed his commitment to the quarterback, citing his potential for growth and improvement. “Deshaun can do better, and he will,” Stefanski said. “We need to support him better, and as an offense, we’re dedicated to putting our players in a position to succeed.”
Ultimately, Stefanski emphasized that he holds the final say in all team decisions, including personnel choices, although he does consult with general manager Andrew Berry. As the Browns seek to reverse their fortunes, Stefanski’s willingness to reassess his approach may be a crucial step towards getting back on track.
