Deshaun Watson and Kevin Stefanski had a bad day at the office, as did all of the Cleveland Browns.

During Sunday's beatdown loss at the hands of Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders, Watson and Stefanski could be seen yelling at each other on several occasions. Things boiled over early in the second quarter during a red zone trip.

Cleveland was trailing 24-3 and had a goal-to-go series from Washington's 2-yard line. After a false start moved them back five yards, they were forced to burn a timeout when Watson apparently didn't get the play in time from the sideline. He yelled at Stefanski after burning the timeout.

Watson was sacked on the next play and then threw two incompletions. Cleveland faced a fourth-and-goal from Washington's 8-yard line. Stefanski clearly wanted to go for it, as a field goal wouldn't have really helped his team. With about 18 seconds left on the play clock, Watson began walking off the field, giving up on the play. Stefanski couldn't believe what he was seeing.

The sequence is below.

The amount of confusion & dysfunction on these 2 plays in the red zone is astounding. Forget the same page, Stefanski & Watson aren't even in the same book right now. These two are now visibly arguing on the field. This is bad. pic.twitter.com/SENOcjJ6gm
