Many of the mistakes during the 2025 season, such as drops on offense and breakdowns on special teams, ultimately stemmed from a lack of discipline. When a culture of accountability is established, recurring issues like those begin to disappear. The team needs to eliminate these types of problems to build a winning culture and put itself in a position to win close games.
Hiring an offensive play caller as the next head coach comes with several major benefits. Right now, the Browns’ offense is the unit most responsible for limiting the team’s potential. The team needs a coach who can provide immediate stability on that side of the ball and maximize success regardless of who is under center.
