The conversation on X
X largely credits Monken for Cleveland’s unexpected early success
X is mainly discussing Monken’s 3-1 start with Cleveland, its AFC North lead, improved quarterback play and the belief that he has been an excellent or unusually good fit for the team.
The dominant view credits Monken for the turnaround, while a smaller view says his success should not erase recognition of Kevin Stefanski’s coaching ability. Other posts want Monken to develop Cleveland’s younger quarterbacks or argue that other teams should have hired him.
This broadly matches the podcast story’s praise of Monken’s results, confidence and quarterback direction. X places more emphasis on the Browns’ standings, Coach of the Year discussion, comparisons with prior coaches and hypothetical alternative hires, while giving less attention to the podcast nickname and locker-room camaraderie.

- Monken deserves credit for Cleveland’s success73%
Supporters say Monken has quickly turned Cleveland into an unexpectedly strong team, citing its 3-1 record, division lead, winning streak, player belief and improved quarterback play. Some describe him as an ideal fit and a leading Coach of the Year candidate.
“Idc if it’s early. At no point did I expect the Cleveland Browns to be leading the AFC North. Props to Todd Monken.”

“THE CLEVELAND BROWNS ARE 3-1 AND ARE IN FIRST PLACE IN THE AFC NORTH!! UNBELIEVABLE!!! COACH TODD MONKEN IS THE PERFECT FIT FOR THIS BROWNS TEAM!! #dawgpound”

“At the start of week 4 Cleveland Browns sit atop of AFC North with 3-1, former Ravens OG Todd Monken doing miracles with the dawg pound! #TNF”
@MoRaven8 · Oct 2
- Monken should develop Cleveland’s younger quarterbacks7%
These posts argue that Monken’s work with Deshaun Watson warrants giving him time to develop Dillon Gabriel and potentially other younger quarterbacks. One post suggests a younger quarterback could receive the opportunity if Cleveland is eliminated from contention.
“"if Todd Monken can help out Deshaun Watson, he can't help out Dillon Gabriel?" @KenCarman pushes back on a caller dismissing #Browns Dillon Gabriel, arguing Todd Monken deserves a chance to develop him just like he’s helped Deshaun Watson.”

“@Browns HC Todd Monken inherited @deshaunwatson @ShedeurSanders and @_dillongabriel_ he's apart of the drafting of @taylengreen17 if they're eliminated from playoff contention, I could see him going to his guy, if he feels he's ready, they would be GMs that wouldn't matter”
@dtspodcastshow · Oct 7
- Monken is good, but not uniquely responsible5%
These posts support Monken’s current performance while resisting the idea that previous Cleveland coaching was incapable or that Monken alone explains the results. They emphasize that Kevin Stefanski was also capable.
“I like Todd Monken. I'm happy for Todd Monken. Monken is doing a good job. But the idea that Kevin Stefanski couldn't coach was utterly ridiculous.”
