The Cleveland Browns’ ground game is under the microscope after another disappointing showing, with fans and analysts debating whether replacing Judkins at running back or shuffling the offensive line is the answer. Despite Judkins being criticized for lack of production, poor run-blocking and a new-look offensive line featuring five fresh starters—including two rookies—are identified as the real causes behind the lack of rushing lanes. Is a new blocking tight end the missing piece for Cleveland’s offense? Deshaun Watson’s reliance on shotgun formations and his hesitance to throw the ball away are weighing heavily on the Browns’ offensive efficiency. NFL legends like Peyton Manning and Tom Brady made careers out of knowing when to give up on a play—will Watson learn to do the same and trust the Browns’ elite defense? The running game’s struggles and Watson’s decisions remain pivotal as the season progresses.
