NFL sack leader and Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett expressed his frustration with the team's defensive scheme in postgame comments following the Browns' 45-7 loss to the New England Patriots in Week 10. Garrett felt that there were a lack of adjustments by Browns defensive coordinator Joe Woods, with Woods saying that the star defensive end's comments didn't bother him before noting that the team immediately got a stop coming out of halftime.
Garrett was asked about the alleged rift between he and Woods on Friday- and the star defender spoke his truth on the matter.

Myles Garrett is basically saying that things are good between he and Woods. They should be, as the two are on the same side, dealing with the same sort of obstacles presented by opposing linemen and offensive coordinators. of course, this isn't the first time that the Browns have dealt with some off-field drama.
Perhaps the best news for Browns fans is that Garrett was told by head coach Kevin Stefanski to keep any criticism of the team in-house, an encouraging development as the franchise attempts to pick up the pieces following last week's blowout loss.
The great teams in the NFL rarely provide any bad publicity or drama. They focus on getting the win that week and move on if they don't.
The Browns, specifically Garrett and Woods, sound like they're on the same page heading into a matchup with the winless Detroit Lions. Woods is likely having fun scheming up ways to unleash Myles Garrett on expected Lions starter Tim Boyle, who has thrown four NFL passes.
