Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski stood firm in his decision to keep Deshaun Watson as the team’s starting quarterback for Week Seven’s upcoming matchup against the Bengals. Despite a disappointing performance in the previous game against the Eagles, where the Browns failed to score an offensive touchdown, Stefanski maintained that Watson gives the team the best chance to win.
In a postgame press conference, Stefanski emphasized the importance of playing solid football and expressed his confidence in Watson’s ability to lead the team to success. “I think it’s just important we do everything we can to play good, sound football,” Stefanski stated. “I think Deshaun gives us the best chance to win, continues to give us the best chance to win, and we need to play really good offensive football and, really, at every position to be successful on Sunday.”
While Watson struggled to find the end zone in the previous game, he showed improvement in the second half, completing 11 of 12 passes. Although Stefanski highlighted these moments of success, questions still remain about Watson’s consistency and ability to thrive in Cleveland.
As the Browns prepare to face the Bengals in Week Seven, Stefanski’s unwavering support for Watson will be put to the test. Can Watson rise to the occasion and lead the Browns to victory, or will the team be left searching for answers once again? Only time will tell as the drama unfolds on the gridiron.
