The Browns defense had 17 missed tackles against the Jaguars, per @NextGenStats, which only trailed the Denver Broncos for the most in the NFL in Week 1. Cleveland's missed tackle rate (21.8%) was also the third highest. Todd Monken was asked about the tackling effort on Monday: “Well, you’re never as satisfied as you’d like. I thought in the open field, I thought our guys did a really good job of tackling. Now, there were a couple moments inside where their ball carriers did a good job of bouncing off tackles, but for the most part, in the open field, I thought our tackling was fine. I didn’t see that being as much of an issue as it was in terms of some of the run schemes that they had dialed up, that they were able to get to the second level pretty comfortably. But I did not see missed tackles. Obviously, there’s always going to be some missed tackles involved, but I did not see that as an issue. No.”
