Cleveland Browns star DE Myles Garrett had his third straight game without a sack in Week 15.

Garrett is still very effective and his six pressures showed that against the Chicago Bears. But Garrett continues to be held by tackles often and it’s going uncalled, likely due to the dominance that Garrett has shown.

"He's frustrated and I'm frustrated when he's getting held,” Kevin Stefanski said on Monday. “It's something we need to make sure is getting addressed.” 

Garrett was fined for his comments after the win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Whether it was rightfully earned or not, the NFL wasn’t interested in Garrett’s comments and it cost him $25,000.

“He's the best player on the best defense in the league right now. He's the Defensive Player of the Year. I don't think it's close,” Stefanski said.

On the season, Garrett has 13 sacks and has recorded three straight seasons of 16 sacks. With three games left on the season, Garrett has a chance to reach that milestone once again.

The NFL officiating is being criticized left and right all around the league. It’s very well possible the Browns have a case here too, the video evidence is everywhere. Whether or not officials are held accountable is yet to be seen.
