Myles Garrett delivered one of the most dominant individual performances of the NFL season, but it came in yet another losing effort for the Cleveland Browns. The star defensive end’s historic outing stirred both admiration and frustration across the league as fans lamented another wasted masterpiece.
Garrett recorded five sacks in a 32-13 loss to the New England Patriots, setting a new franchise single-game record and breaking milestones that placed him alongside some of the game’s legendary pass rushers. His explosive play consistently disrupted the Patriots offense, yet it wasn’t enough to overcome another lackluster outing by Cleveland’s struggling attack.
Frustration spilled over late in the game when Garrett was seen slamming his helmet on the sideline after coaches pulled him from the final series. The viral moment captured both his competitiveness and the futility surrounding the Browns’ continuing skid. On social media, fans compared Garrett’s situation to “a Ferrari in a junkyard,” expressing disbelief that a player of his caliber remains stuck on a team unable to capitalize on his greatness.
Despite the result, Garrett’s numbers were staggering. Analysts noted his near-unreal 0.7-second average burst off the snap and multiple plays where he fought through double teams with ease. Even Patriots linemen struggled to contain him, as he turned almost every pass rush into a highlight.

“a Ferrari in a junkyard,” a fan said. “Having 5 sacks, and losing by 5 possessions is sickening 😭” another added.
A supporter mentioned, “Best defensive player in football.”
“I can just imagine him on a legit team!!!!” a follower remarked.
“Joe Thomas and Myles are probably the best players to never play for a good team…” a commenter posted.
“Patriots could use a guy like him,” a sixth social media user reacted.
The performance reignited conversations about Garrett’s long-term future in Cleveland, where repeated losses have overshadowed his Hall of Fame trajectory. While he signed a four-year extension to stay with the Browns, his postgame demeanor suggested the weight of unmet expectations is beginning to wear thin.
Garrett’s display served as both a reminder and a warning. His dominance remains undeniable, but until Cleveland can match his excellence, his brilliance will continue to shine in vain.
