Coaching matters as Browns vs Saints showed
When it comes to the Cleveland Browns, anything is possible. A competitive, if not sloppy, game versus the New Orleans Saints turned into a blowout in the fourth quarter. The Browns lost OL Dawand Jones for the year while Jameis Winston and Denzel Ward provided some highlight plays.
Kicker Dustin Hopkins had a rough day but his new extension basically makes him uncuttable. That would have been the big story until the Saints ran wild, especially Taysom Hill, in the fourth quarter.
As fans turn their attention to what Cleveland might do with the top overall pick, with only three options making sense at this point, we also need to provide grades for the Browns Week 11 performance:
- QB Jameis Winston – A-
- WR Jerry Jeudy – B-
- RB Nick Chubb – C+
- OLine – D+
- K Dustin Hopkins – F
- DE Myles Garrett – C-: Not a lot of chances to make plays (good coaching by Saints) but no plays were made either
- CB Denzel Ward – A
- DC Jim Schwartz – D-
- HC Kevin Stefanski – Incomplete: Did the team give up? If so, an F. If not, a D.
- ST Coordinator Bubba Ventrone – F
