The Browns apparently will stick with Deshaun Watson for home opener

Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson didn't throw for 400 yards and five touchdowns, but he likely did enough to earn another start.

The Cleveland Browns have reportedly decided to keep Deshaun Watson as their starting quarterback for their Week 3 home opener against the Panthers, despite his subpar performance against the Buccaneers. Coach Todd Monken expressed his satisfaction with Watson's effort, stating that he "played his ass off" in the victory. However, with the possibility of two home games only four days apart, the pressure on Watson to perform well may be immense.

Fans in Cleveland might be vocal if Watson fails to step up in the upcoming matches against Carolina and Pittsburgh.
