Here is a reader’s digest of what offensive coordinator Todd Monken had to say:Not Calling Plays is FineHead coach Freddie Kitchens will call plays this season, so why would Monken, who interviewed for a few head coaching positions, join a team like Cleveland? “I have always chosen places based on the people and the opportunity to win,” said Monken. “It is about moving the football, regardless of who is calling it. I have called it in the past so it is not as if I am not capable of that.”Asked about his duties as offensive coordinator if he isn’t calling plays, Monken said, “We will see. I have been here seven days.” Monken had never met Kitchens nor GM John Dorsey prior to interviewing for the job. However, he didn’t find that unusual that he got the job, because he feels teams do a high level of research and ask around about a candidate to find out about who they are.“When I watched what they did the last eight weeks of the year and how they went about it and organizationally, it was something that I wanted to be a part of,” said Monken.Throwing to WinMonken believes that it’s not always about having a pass-run balance, but balance in the “throwing to win” mentality by distributing the ball evenly to all your playmakers.Creating the Browns’ Offensive Scheme for 2019Monken makes the point that the team will work through what schemes they want to run for the 2019 Browns. Right now, they have a mix of system/terminology from Kitchens’ past, Monken’s past, the system that Todd Haley had for the Browns last year, and then what James Campen brings over from Green Bay in the running game.Asked whether the Browns will incorporate a lot of RPO (run-pass option) into their offense this year Baker Mayfield Jersey Stitched , Kitchens said, “I think ‘a lot’ is probably an extreme, but I think that is where football has been and that has been my background. Hopefully, it is something that interests Freddie.”How open does Monken think Kitchens will be to his past offensive philosophies?Rest of the PresserTo hear the entire press conference, including what he said about QB Baker Mayfield, check out the video below: NEW YORK (AP) — The NFL has fined Tampa Bay safety Jordan Whitehead $26,739 for unnecessary roughness against Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield.The league had said Friday that Whitehead should have been penalized for striking Mayfield in the side of the helmet during last Sunday’s 26-23 overtime win for Tampa Bay.Mayfield was sliding at the end of a 35-yard scramble when he got hit by Whitehead, who was initially penalized before the officials conferred and decided to pick up the flag — and one against Mayfield for taunting.First-year referee Shawn Hochuli made the situation worse by incorrectly announcing Mayfield “was still a runner and therefore is allowed to be hit in the head.”Panthers safety Eric Reid was fined $10,026 for unnecessary roughness for his hit on Eagles tight end Zach Ertz in Carolina’s 21-17 win.Also fined:—Bengals safety Shawn Williams, $20,054 for unnecessary roughness for a helmet-to-helmet hit against the Chiefs.
