There were a lot of things that went wrong with the Cleveland Browns offense against the Jets but there was one thing that really stuck out to head coach Todd Monken. The Browns allowed eight sacks in this game, and that was something that did not sit right with Cleveland's head coach, and for good reason.
"Let's just say this, eight sacks is a season-high. I hope like hell the rest of the time I'm here, we don't have a game we have eight sacks."
While talking about this, he highlighted something that has been a growing concern for Browns fans: the team cannot run the ball, and as a result, it is having a negative impact on the passing game. The quarterback struggled to see free blitzers, and the coaching staff failed to make adjustments to mitigate
these issues.

Quinshon Judkins is struggling to see the rushing lane and doesn't look fully healthy before leaving the stadium in a walking boot. The team is still without Dylan Sampson, but both Raheim Sanders and Jaleel McLaughlin have shown they deserve to get more touches in the run game to see if they can jump-start it and get things on track for the offense.
