Jameis Winston will remain the starting quarterback for the struggling Cleveland Browns, despite his three-interception performance in a loss to the Los Angeles Chargers.

Why it matters: The decision to stick with Winston reflects the team's commitment to him and their belief that improvement is needed across the board, not just at the quarterback position.

What's new: Coach Kevin Stefanski confirmed that Winston would retain his starting role, highlighting the collective responsibility to play better as a team.

  • Winston completed 26 of 46 passes for 235 yards with one touchdown and three interceptions in the game against the Chargers.
  • The Browns' defeat dropped their record to 2-7, tying them for the worst record in the NFL.

Yes, but: Despite Winston's struggles, there are other factors contributing to the team's struggles:

  • The offensive line allowed Winston to be sacked six times, putting additional pressure on the quarterback.
  • The team's overall performance needs improvement, including the defense and special teams.

What to watch: The Browns' upcoming games will be crucial in determining the trajectory of their season and Winston's future as the starting quarterback.

What's next: The team will continue to evaluate their options and make any necessary adjustments to maximize their chances of success.

The bottom line: While Winston's performance has been inconsistent, the Browns are placing their faith in him to lead the team to success. However, improvements from the entire team are essential for the Browns to turn their season around.
