There's been plenty of blame going around for the Cleveland Browns, sitting at 1-5. However, if there's one player who doesn't deserve any criticism, it's star-edge rusher Myles Garrett.

After a few months of trade rumors, Garrett looking to get paid, and other factors, the Browns quieted all those by giving him the money he was looking for after a 14.0 sack season. Now, with the losses being an issue once again, Garrett has been outspoken, saying that it's frustrating that the team continues to deal with this.
“To lose the same way every time, it’s frustrating as hell,” Garrett said, per Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com.
The last thing the Browns want to do is upset someone like Garrett, but there's also an argument that it might make sense to move on from him at some point because of just how poorly the team has played. Regardless, some of the Browns' coaches even understand what Garrett had to say, including defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz.
“Myles is one of our key players and he certainly has a voice and his opinion,” Schwartz said. “Anyone who wants to stand behind their statements and speak up — I don’t see any issue with that.”

The coaches on the Browns have been around this game for a long time, just like Garrett, and they likely share the same frustration.
It's been a few years now of the Browns playing below-average football, arguably one of the worst teams in the NFL again. For a player like Garrett, who wants to go down as one of the all-time greats, winning is very important.
