| 10/27/26 | Biggest Browns Game In 3 Years? 23 Years? 30 Years? | Zac Jackson has some thoughts on the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Ohio State Buckeyes, but the focus is on Sunday in Pittsburgh: Browns and Steelers for first place.

| 10/26/26 | Browns 5-2, Checking Boxes...And Arrows Pointing Up? | Zac Jackson and Anthony Moeglin discuss the 5-2 Cleveland Browns, who sit atop the AFC North after their wild win in Nashville Sunday.

It sure feels like they should. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising. | 28m 18s | ||||||

| 10/12/26 | Just One Bad Day? Or Were The Browns Exposed? | On a rainy Sunday in New Jersey, the Jets started sending blitzes at about 9:15 a.m. and the Browns were clueless on how to attack them until about 3:15 p.m. Zac Jackson and Anthony Moeglin go through bad moments, the brief comeback, alarm bells and the wild mistakes in the end that led to the Jets winning the game.

| 9/24/26 | Browns - Panthers Game Prep With Joe Person | Suddenly, Sunday's Cleveland Browns - Carolina Panthers game is interesting for reasons outside of the home crowd / home quarterback dynamic.

| 9/22/26 | Six Browns (And Browns-Adjacent) Thoughts | Zac Jackson puts a bow on the Browns' big win in Tampa and spins things forward towards Week 3 and Sunday's home opener.

| 9/21/26 | Todd Monken Is Rightly Fired Up | Zac Jackson and Anthony Moeglin cover the Cleveland Browns' stunning win in Tampa Bay. There was grit, there was strong defense, there was a record weather delay and over the final 25 or so minutes, there was even competent quarterback play. Baker Mayfield got booed by his home crowd before Deshaun Watson did, and that's something no one saw coming. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| 9/15/26 | Why Can't The Browns Just Make A QB Change And Move On? | No segments, no fluff, no regular-length episode today. Just a rambling Zac Jackson trying to answer the lingering Cleveland Browns' question in the only ways he knows how -- and just Zac wondering why the Browns can't admit a mistake, move on and finally put an end to the Deshaun Watson era.

| 9/14/26 | Folks, That's As Bad As It Gets | Deshaun Watson is a disaster. The defense was arguably worse, and the Cleveland Browns got run off the field in about 20 minutes Sunday.
