The Cleveland Browns have a very real chance to reach the playoffs
Jason La Canfora, NFL insider
NFL evaluators see Cleveland as a playoff team:One told Jason La Canfora: “Todd Monken is going to be coach of the year.”
Monken is getting more from Deshaun Watson:One evaluator says he is “playing better than he has in five or six years,” while Cleveland is scoring a touchdown more per game.
Young receivers are impressing league executives: Denzel Boston and KC Concepcion have earned praise for their poise, football IQ and ability after the catch.
The defense offers further reason for optimism:One executive praised Cleveland’s cornerbacks and views Mason Graham as a top five defensive tackle.
We're 4-2, so Monken gets some credit. But he's an offensive coach and so far our offense has been horrible - except for a few moments. It's not sustainable.
