The only way I know how to use the network tab in chrome devtools is to open up the network tab first then reload the page I'm interested in. Many times though I would like to browse a little while on a page to test things. Any clicks on the page though take me to inspect the html element I clicked. What am I missing? Can I leave the inspect mode, continue to browse, while I track files on the network tab?

Sure. You can leave the developer tools always open (and even record the requests).
The problem is that you're using the shortcut to inspect; not the Developer Tools shortcut.
In Windows and Linux use F12. On Mac, check at the menu.
