  • Overall thoughts on Pod

    I listen to as much Browns content as possible. Feels like more disgruntled Browns fans more than x and o’s and subject matter experts like Jake on Browns Film breakdown.

  • Lots of complaining and lots of bias for Sanders

    “I don’t care about the numbers” when talking about Sanders then goes into the numbers for other qbs. I tried. I tried so hard but this podcast is just awful for Browns fans.
