Analyst offers horror prediction for Browns fans under Todd Monken originally appeared on The Sporting News . Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here . The Cleveland Browns are looking to Todd Monken to be the one to get the franchise back to where it thinks it belongs in 2026.
Now, the task at hand isn't an easy one, as the Browns have won just eight games over the past two seasons, which led to Kevin Stefanski's firing. Now Monken, an offensive mind, has to come in and make sense of everything and get this Browns team playing good football. Tough to do in your first-ever head coaching role in the NFL.
And for Bleacher Report's Gary Davenport, his realistic expectations for Monken and Cleveland in 2026 is a 6-11 record. The issue for Monken is finding the best in a bad roster—at least on offense,” Davenport wrote . “Cleveland's defense should be stout again in 2026—Jim Schwartz or no Jim Schwartz.
But the Browns have no real idea if Shedeur Sanders is an NFL quarterback. The offensive line was completely overhauled in free agency. The pass-catching talent is among the worst in the league.
