Cleveland Browns ended their NFL season after losing their third game in a row. This time, they lost to the Cincinnati Bengals. Browns missed the playoffs following a third-place finish in the American Football Conference Northern Division (AFC North) with a 6-10 (win-loss) record.
The Ohio-based side reacted quickly by firing coach Freddie Kitchens after just one season in charge.

Freddie Kitchens' dismissal is already the third in the NFL this season after the Washington Redskins and the Carolina Panthers fired Jay Gruden and Ron Rivera respectively.
With the regular season over, franchises who missed a playoff berth have already started preparing for the next campaign. Kitchens' dismissal has however prompted a massive reaction from fans to fire another struggling coach - Jason Garrett.
If the #Cowboys win today, Jason Garrett will finish the regular season with an 8-8 record for the fourth time. In the Super Bowl era, only Jeff Fisher has more 8-8 finishes with five, per @ESPNStatsInfo pic.twitter.com/Ok8UJRr9jw

Watch: Jason Garrett's post-game press conference
Jason Garrett, who is a two-time Super Bowl winner as a player, has been walking on thin ice all season. The Dallas Cowboys coach failed to steer his side to the playoffs despite comfortably beating the Washington Redskins on Sunday night (Monday morning IST).
The Cowboys finished behind the Philadelphia Eagles in the National Football Conference - Eastern Division (NFC East) with an 8-8 record. With experts suggesting that the Cowboys have regressed under the 53-year-old, fans took to social media to voice their frustrations with Garrett.
Cowboys supporters are surely not happy with Jason Garrett
What a fitting end to the Jason Garrett era (we all hope 🙄) to finish 8-8 and miss the playoffs. pic.twitter.com/ys0UwXu9lh

Please, Jerry, don't be a prisoner of the 44-16 moment. Don't decide your "son" Jason Garrett "finished strong" and deserves another year. Don't waste next season, too.
