00:00A ton of midweek changes to get ready for week number eight

00:08around the NFL. New quarterback stepping up and in because of

00:12injuries and new offensive play callers in Cleveland. New

00:16quarterback first, Jameis Winston takes over for the

00:19injured Deshaun Watson, not the second year pro, Dorian Thompson

00:23Robinson, who was the second string quarterback last week and

00:27Jameis was the reserve emergency third string QB.

00:31Jameis Winston has played in five games this year for the

00:34Browns, his first in the land. He has attempted only twelve

00:39passes. What might be even more interesting DRS than Jameis

00:42Winston, the veteran starting for the injured Deshaun Watson

00:46is the fact that Kevin Stefanski, a two-time NFL coach

00:50of the year in his five seasons in Cleveland is handing over

00:54play calling duties to new offensive coordinator Ken

00:58Dorsey, who last year, of course, was the OC in Buffalo

01:01was fired midway through the year. They turned over play

01:04calling duties to Joe Brady. What do you make of the

01:07situation for a Browns team? That is a dreadful one and six

01:11to start this season. It's not going to get any better. You

01:14look at those games to seven games through Bend Avenue got

01:16to the twenty point marker, seventeen, eighteen, fifteen,

01:19sixteen, thirteen, sixteen, and fourteen. You're not winning

01:22very many football games, if any in the National Football

01:24League doing that. So now you say, alright, let's change the

01:27play caller and maybe Kevin Stefanski is doing this to sort

01:30of save himself like this team is so bad like if I hand it off

01:34and Dorsey doesn't have any success for the next five

01:36weeks. Well, it's not my fault. It's just the bad players that

01:39we have and granted he's right. The offensive line that was so

01:41big and physical in the past banged up and not as physical

01:44now. Yes, Chubb is coming back, but who knows how healthy he's

01:47going to be down the stretch wide receiving core is

01:50basically Judy now at this point and also you're about to

01:53deal within a week and a week and a half. You're going to

01:55lose even more players at the trade deadline because this

01:57season is up in smoke. It's a cornerback. You're trading

01:59defensive line like Miles Garrett, who a contender would

02:02love to have and you can get a premium back. Maybe a first

02:04round draft pick and more for him. Those are conversations

02:07you're going to have to have in the room, but you're going to

02:09put this in this though. It's not as if like let me give you

02:11a soft landing spot. Let's play the Giants and the New England

02:13Patriots next week. It's the Ravens. It's the Chargers. It's

02:16the Saints will probably be healthier at that point. The

02:18Steelers, the Broncos, the Steelers, the Chiefs, the

02:21Bengals, the Dolphins, the Ravens like where I know. I

02:25know you can't any given Sunday. You can win on any week

02:27here. This is such a bad team. That's getting even more

02:30injured and hurt on a week to week basis and the deadlines

02:33coming up. Honestly, what is there over under now from here

02:36on out on that schedule two wins realistically, maybe two

02:40wins.
