Browns HC Todd Monken Has Fiery Clap Back for Mike Tomlin After Bucs Upset
Cleveland Browns head coach Todd Monken said his players took former Steelers coach Mike Tomlin's comments personally.
In an upset victory, the Cleveland Browns led by Deshaun Watson defeated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a score of 23-19. Watson had an impressive game, completing 24 of 30 passes and throwing touchdowns to teammates. After the win, Browns head coach Todd Monken had sharp words for former Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin, an analyst for NBC Sports.
Monken said, "The Browns are gonna Browns. [Expletive] that. Ok?" After the game, Tomlin responded with a humorous comment on the Sunday Night Football broadcast, saying he was glad he could still motivate the team. Monken's comments reflected the feelings of many Browns fans who had expressed doubts about Watson as the starter following a poor Week 1 performance.
Monken, who became the Browns' head coach this offseason, aims to turn things around in Cleveland. The Buccaneers' struggles were evident, as a weather delay and a costly penalty contributed to their loss.
