  • Very Average

    Nick Wilson isn’t for me. Dusty is good when he does show up (1/2024 appears to be going through a personal crisis so he gets a pass)

    Kudos to the producer for getting good national guests. Not sure why the guests put up with Nick.

  • Low IQ nonsense

    This channel obviously appeals to the lowest possible intelligence level of sports fans in Northern Ohio. These hosts match up pretty well with Cleveland’s sports culture - hyperbole and inferiority complexes.

  • Making the best of it

    They do a pretty good job covering the most depressing sports city in America. That’s gotta be tough at times, kudos.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Joe Thomas: Browns are in a transition period; you want to see steady progress and leadership from young QBs
Q: How do you look at Dylan Gabriel and Shador Sanders if we don't have the offensive line and you don't have the receivers?
You need to judge them fairly, knowing that outside factors impact their performance, and it's important to see steady progress and leadership from them.
Joe Thomas: Browns are in a transition period; you want to see steady progress and leadership from young QBs
Q: How much losing is too much losing before the locker room stops believing they can win this year?
It's really tough to say, but focus on how hard the guys are playing and their effort in the fourth quarter.

Q: What do you think the fallout from a loss to the Dolphins will be?
It could lead to discussions about firing Stefanski or making major changes in the organization.
Hour 2: Do you want to give Deshaun Watson another chance without Kevin Stefanski? + Jason Lloyd
Q: Is firing Kevin Stefanski in season still off the table right now?
It serves no purpose since the team isn't going anywhere and there's nothing to salvage by firing the coach now; give him the entire season to evaluate the situation.
