Myles Garrett showed where his true mentality sits at in Cleveland after the Browns beat the Miami Dolphins
Browns fans should really appreciate the way he’s going about things.
The Cleveland Browns needed the win they grabbed in Week 7 over the Miami Dolphins, a dominant 31-6 victory that moved them to 2-5 on the season. The win brings a good feeling to Cleveland for at least a few days, but the Browns have to continue building toward making this the norm again. After a tough start to the season, the schedule lightens up a bit, and they’ll have another opportunity next weekend against a solid New England Patriots team.
Myles Garrett has the perfect approach after the win for Cleveland
“We got a win in a fashion which we can appreciate, but that’s not enough, and we gotta continue to do that,” Garrett said. “One win is one thing, but we’ve gotta turn this into a habit, an addiction. It’s gotta be an obsession to win and win like this. And so we gotta keep on chasing that feeling.”
Cleveland rolled to a lopsided win over the Dolphins thanks to four forced turnovers. The Browns picked off Miami QB Tua Tagovailoa three times and forced a fumble on special teams. Garrett recorded a sack, and Cleveland totaled four sacks between Tagovailoa and Quinn Ewers. The Browns had another defensive performance worth writing home about, and the offense did a good enough job capitalizing on those turnovers to put points on the board.
“I’m always going to tell it how it is. I mean, that’s just my nature. I’m going to shoot you straight. And I have no problem saying what I say to them up here and vice versa,” Garrett went on to say. “So I’m not trying to say anything to disparage anybody or try to get anybody removed from their position or anything like that. I want everybody here to be a benefactor to our success. So it all came together today, and I hope we continue to rally around everything that we’ve been talking about—and I’ve been talking about.”
Garrett’s approach may sound a bit tempered, but it’s exactly the type of leadership the Browns need to build what they want to become. A couple of wins aren’t enough—and won’t do much for the Browns in the long run. If Cleveland wants to become a playoff team again, winning has to become the standard. Garrett has played in three playoff games in his career and clearly wants to get back there soon. Who could blame him?
