00:00I can say with a small amount of certainty
00:04that the Browns are actually a good football team.
00:07They're not great.
00:09They're not world beaters.
00:11I'm not afraid of them.
00:12But they've shown in back-to-back-to-back weeks
00:17things at this point in the season
00:19other teams that we thought would be world beaters
00:23haven't shown.
00:24They've shown consistency.
00:26They've shown the ability to move the ball.
00:28And they've shown the ability to physically
00:30to get off the field.
00:31You cannot say that about 25 teams in this league right now.
00:37So, yeah, listen, John.
00:40So the reason John's saying this is because the Browns
00:44won a thrilling game on Thursday night.
00:47And the Browns are undefeated on Thursday night games.
00:51Which is a hell of a random thing to be.
00:53Ridiculous.
00:54I know Josh was talking about.
00:56Josh actually kind of predicted this.
00:57He called this.
00:58He called this.
00:59I got to give Josh credit.
01:00I think that's two weeks in a row that Josh has called
01:02one of these massive upsets.
01:05But Cleveland wins 27-24.
01:08They are now 3-1 on the season.
01:10If anybody had that on their bingo card,
01:13please present it to us because I don't believe you.
01:16Pittsburgh is 2-2 now.
01:18Still respectable.
01:19They played a pretty competitive game.
01:21I'm not going to bash Pittsburgh.
01:23But Deshaun Watson, 24-33, 268 passing yards, a touchdown, and a pick.
01:29And that crucial miss late in the game that kind of set up the Steelers
01:33to go on that final drive.
01:34But in any case, Quinshawn Judkins had a touchdown.
01:37He had six catches.
01:39You go down the list.
01:40Like, the Browns played a very good game.
01:42Andre Schmidt, however you say it, S-Z-M-Y-T.
01:49S-Z-M-Y-T.
01:49Yeah.
01:50Even Al Michaels was struggling with it.
01:52He had a 56-yard field goal with 10 seconds remaining to give the Browns the win.
01:57John, with all that being said, how impressive was this win by Cleveland
02:02at home, I might add?
02:04I mean, look, man.
02:05Deshaun Watson might be a horrible person.
02:07I don't know.
02:08I never met him.
02:09But he going to make them love him.
02:12He going to make them.
02:14At three games in a row, in Cleveland, first place, those Browns who,
02:21before the season started, people were ready to burn the building down.
02:26People were ready to pick it outside if he was a starting quarterback.
02:30So four weeks later, four football weeks later,
02:36they're ready to carry him off the field.
02:40You got to take your head off the top, Munkin.
02:43Winning cures all.
02:46Period.
02:47Full stop.
02:48End of story.
02:49These people were booing Deshaun Watson mercifully in the preseason.
02:54To now cheering him off the field.
02:57He's waving, come on, give me some more.
03:00And they're just showering him with praise.
03:03I take my head off the top, Munkin.
03:05He didn't cave to the pressure.
03:07He saw something on the film that led him to believe that Deshaun Watson
03:11gave them the best chance to win.
03:13I think what he saw on the film is that they paid Deshaun Watson $200 million.
03:18He probably didn't look at film.
03:20He just looked at the checkbooks.
03:22Right.
03:23Jimmy Haslam said, hey, turn it off.
03:25Look at this check.
03:26You see the check?
03:27That's why he got to play.
03:28But to Deshaun Watson's credit, man, he has given them cover fire for making it feel like
03:35they made the right decision.
03:36Because the last game, he didn't play well, but he found a way to win.
03:40Tonight, he actually played very well.
03:42And they won.
03:43And so they seem to be building every week and getting better.
03:48Losing Mason Graham is probably going to hurt that defensive line.
03:51Yeah.
03:51But that defense played very well tonight.
03:54That offense played very well tonight.
03:56Jerry and Judy can actually catch the ball when it's not, you know, Shadour throwing to him.
04:00So I was impressed with the Browns, man.
04:03I really was impressed with the Browns.
04:04They look like a legit, real professional NFL football team.
04:08So I think he's in the front one.
04:09And I'm going to schedule it tomorrow for each group.
04:09It's like, if you're going to schedule it, it's going to be 5,000, because usually when you're 3,000.
