Kevin Stefanski has received criticism from Cleveland Browns supporters on a regular basis.

Since its peak during an unexpected first-season playoff victory, Stefanski’s popularity has clearly declined.

Though rumors over his future has persisted despite leading his wounded club to the sixth AFC playoff berth, The Athletic’s NFL expert Diana Russini thinks Browns ownership is happy with their head coach.

And it appears that Stefanski is here to stay, according to a Twitter report from BrownsTown USA Podcast.

In her latest piece, @DMRussini reported that the #Browns organization is “thrilled” w/ head coach Kevin Stefanski’s leadership this season. The belief per multiple sources is that Stefanski is here to stay. It’s said GM Andrew Berry is also in the same boat. #DawgPoundpic.twitter.com/NqWMsTgUTK

That could infuriate some of the supporters who struggle with Stefanski’s play-calling every week.

When viewed from outside the greater Cleveland area, Stefanski’s work is noteworthy even though some may not value his even-keen disposition at the bland, uninteresting level he maintains.

In her article, Russini points to the Browns’ playoff status in a season of injuries, highlighting one in particular.

“Look at the Jets. Look at the Bengals. Lots of problems. For the Browns? They found ways to win with rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson and P.J. Walker.”

The top NFL source for The Athletic also gives Stefanski credit for hiring Bubba Ventrone and Jim Schwartz.

She claims that despite the difficulties of the season, Stefanski fosters a mindset of “just win.”

It’s great to make it to the playoffs in a season without his star quarterback, but it’s extraordinary to be in the running without both starting tackles and a franchise player like Nick Chubb.

This suggests that the Browns will probably give Stefanski a contract extension during this offseason, according to Russini.
