The Cleveland Browns’ $230 million quarterback played like a $12 quarterback in Monday night’s 26-22 loss to rival Pittsburgh.<\/p>\n

Deshaun Watson accounted for three of the Browns’ four turnovers, including a first-play pick-six and a game-losing fumble returned for a touchdown by T.J. Watt. He was also called for two massive 15-yard facemask penalties. The high-priced quarterback knows he can’t make those mistakes for the Browns to be successful.<\/p>\n

“Still coming along,” Watson said when asked how he feels he’s playing right now. “I feel like, tonight, it was s—– as far as that. There’s some plays that we capitalized and we did good, but as far as my part, it’s not good enough. I put that on me. The first play, yeah, we can get into the tactics of receiver running out and putting the ball out, and this, that and the third, but I got to give him a better ball. The forced fumble for a touchdown for them. We can say, ‘This guy can do this,’ but I’ve got to protect the ball. We’re not going to put it on anyone else. You put it on me. I can take the full blame, I can take the criticism and I’m going to do that.”<\/p>\n
