Misery Index · Despair
Browns fans losing to Carson Wentz in 2025 and aiming most of the venom squarely at Stefanski.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
M.Diabate's fumble recovery at the CLE 45 with 14 minutes left handed Cleveland a fourth quarter and a chance, and W.Reichard's wide-right 51-yarder handed them another. Instead, C.Wentz found J.Jefferson for 38, then J.Addison for the go-ahead score with 30 seconds left. Losing to Carson Wentz while still failing to crack 20 points is its own kind of milestone, and the 0-17 first-start streak just keeps breathing.
