When the Cleveland Browns hired Todd Monken to be their head coach, they did so with the expectation that he would be able to help elevate an offense that could eventually match a dominant defense. While his work is more than cut out for him in year one, his track record is enough to where it points to him being able to achieve something during his tenure in Cleveland. ESPN recently highlighted all the NFL playcallers; within the piece, they discuss several key stats and points about them. For Monken, they discussed his ability to craft the best offense in the NFL in recent years in Baltimore. They write, “Monken was the architect of one of the league’s most explosive offenses during his time in Baltimore. Lamar Jackson was named NFL MVP in his first season with Monken in 2023, and the Ravens finished as the league’s No. 1 offense for the first time in their history in 2024. The offense in Cleveland will look different with a young and unproven core, along with the perennial quarterback question, but Monken has a reputation for melding his scheme to his players’ talents.”His career as a playcaller is discussed heavily, and he has had success at various levels. He has won with the Baltimore Ravens and had success with talent like Lamar Jackson. What may be the most impressive display in his career is his time with the Georgia Bulldogs, where he elevated an offense led by Stetson Bennett and won two national titles. He can win and produce an offense, but can he do it in Cleveland? Time will tell. This article originally appeared on Browns Wire: ESPN discusses Browns’ Todd Monken and his playcalling history
