Browns' Deshaun Watson Faces Criticism Amid Struggles

Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson is facing intense scrutiny after a dismal start to the season, with the team sitting at 1-4 and Watson failing to pass for 200 yards in any game. Critics, including fans and analysts, are calling for his benching in favor of backup Jameis Winston, especially following a 34-13 loss to the Washington Commanders. Watson has been sacked a league-high 26 times and holds a low passer rating of 74.4, throwing only four touchdowns against three interceptions. Despite the external pressure, Watson insists he is not affected by the criticism, claiming he does not follow social media and is focused on improving internally. Coach Kevin Stefanski has publicly supported Watson, emphasizing the need to concentrate on team performance rather than outside noise. As Watson prepares for a crucial matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles, the urgency to improve his performance and silence critics grows.
