Cleveland Browns
For the first time in over half a decade (which is a long time around these parts), the Cleveland Browns are back on the NFL coaching carousel after firing HC Kevin Stefanski. The team’s announcement included that GM Andrew Berry would remain in his position and that the Browns have a plan for the needs on offense going forward.
Cleveland is not alone in seeking candidates for their head coaching vacancy. The Tennessee Titans and New York Giants fired their coaches during the season, the Atlanta Falcons made a number of changes Sunday night, which was then followed by the...

The Cleveland Browns did the easy part on Monday with the firing of head coach Kevin Stefanski after six years and two playoff appearances with the franchise.
The difficult part, and one that owners Jimmy and Dee Haslam have repeatedly failed at with Rob Chudzinski, Hue Jackson, and Freddie Kitchens on their résumés, is to now find a head coach who can take the team forward.
One of the people tasked with making that a reality rather than just a pleasant fantasy will be general manager Andrew Berry, who will “immediately begin our thorough process to find an outstanding new...

The Cleveland Browns have been rumored to be moving on from HC Kevin Stefanski for some time, with rumors including potential trades, the coach himself wanting out, and other teams lining up to speak to him as soon as he becomes available. Two straight wins against AFC North opponents both moved the Browns 2026 NFL draft order position down and led many to wonder if Stefanski had saved his job.
On what is known as “Black Monday,” the answer was clear from Berea as multiple reports, all at the same time, said that Stefanski was being let go after six...

With the Cleveland Browns likely to move on from head coach Kevin Stefanski, there are a variety of directions the organization could choose to go in to fill that vacancy.
Grant Udinski
Grant Udinski, current offensive coordinator of the Jacksonville Jaguars, has quickly risen as an impressive offensive mind in this league at such a young age. In 2024, he served as the assistant quarterbacks coach and assistant offensive coordinator for the Minnesota Vikings, giving him experience working with diverse quarterback rooms and maximizing their potential. This season in Jacksonville, he helped clinch a playoff berth while continuing to develop...

The Cleveland Browns made things very interesting both for the future of HC Kevin Stefanski and for the 2026 NFL draft order with two straight victories to end the season. The expectation is that Stefanski and the Browns will part ways, potentially early Monday morning, but that is not certain, and the future in Cleveland/Berea is still more of a mystery than anything.
For now, the Browns have the sixth overall pick and await the postseason fate of the Jacksonville Jaguars to see where that selection falls. [The Jaguars pick would have some value for moving up in the NFL...

With two weeks remaining in the 2025 NFL season, the Cleveland Browns were “fighting” for the top spot in the 2026 NFL draft order. Two wins later, versus AFC North rivals, and the fight was actually on the field, not just for draft positioning. Week 18’s victory over the Cincinnati Bengals, after knocking off the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 17, kept the Browns from moving up in the draft order but secured a two-win improvement from last season at 5-12.
DE Myles Garrett set the single-season sack record (with DT Shelby Harris showing how hilarious he is) and K **Andre...

It looked like it was going to be a rough day for the Browns early on — but then, in a flash, they had two defensive touchdowns on consecutive drives. Despite the offense not mustering much, Cleveland never looked back. The remaining goal in the game was to see if DE Myles Garrett could bring down QB Joe Burrow to make history. It looked like time was running out, but then mid-way through the fourth quarter, it happened!
And it helped lead to the Browns’ 20-18 victory, as they finished the season at 5-12, including having a game-winning field goal...

The NFL has a new single-season record holder for sacks, and he is a member of the Cleveland Browns.
During the fourth quarter of Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals, defensive end Myles Garrett brought down quarterback Joe Burrow for his 23rd sack of the season. Garrett now stands atop the record board as he surpassed Michael Strahan (22.5 sacks with the New York Giants in 2002) and T.J. Watt (22.5 sacks with the Steelers in 2021).
It was Garrett’s 13th career sack of Burrows and the 16th sack in 14 career games against the Bengals.
The record total strengthens...

The Cleveland Browns and the Cincinnati Bengals head into the fourth quarter of their Week 18 match-up with the Browns leading the Bengals 17-12. Highlights from the third quarter include:
-Cleveland had a seven-minute drive to start the quarter. It only led to a field goal, but extended their lead to five points.
-The Browns stopped the Bengals in Cleveland territory, forcing a punt. As we head to the final quarter and game thread of the season, though, the clock is ticking on DE Myles Garrett, who still needs a sack to get the record.
This is your game thread...
