00:00
I do want to ask you about Watson.
00:02
And, you know, he is bragging about how he's going to be better than ever.
00:07
And he's going to be back to being a top-shelf quarterback, or so he thinks.
00:13
And he tore that Achilles.
00:16
What's the story in Cleveland with this guy?
00:19
And what are fans saying to you on your radio show about their quarterback room?
00:26
So, Scott, what do we mean by top-shelf?
00:28
Like, when we were in college and you could get, you know, you could buy anything.
00:32
You'd get a shot for, like, 10 cents or a penny, Kamachka, whatever that stuff was at the bottom of the shelf.
00:38
Yeah, that's what he is.
00:39
I can't see him playing for the Browns unless there are major injuries.
00:44
You know, the hard part about it is if they need a fourth or a fifth quarterback and he's healthy by week 16, 17, or 18,
00:51
then maybe he'll see the field.
00:52
But I don't expect to see him playing for the Browns at all.
00:55
You know, the owner said, Jimmy Haslam said a couple weeks ago that they swung and missed on him.
01:00
So, they are looking for a new quarterback, and they're looking to get out of that contract,
01:04
and they're looking forward to the future.
01:06
So, we'll see what happens next year if they have to draft a quarterback outside of the number two spot,
01:10
which pretty much everybody around here thinks since they picked up Pickett and Flacco,
01:15
and we'll see who they draft in the draft coming up.
01:16
So, just an update, Carson Kelly just hit a three-run shot.
01:21
It's 11-10 now, D-backs on the Cubs at Wrigley in a wild baseball game today on the north side of Chicago.
01:28
Let's go back to Kenny Smallhands.
01:32
I want to know what you think of getting him as your quarterback in Cleveland.
01:38
I've already been down this road in Pittsburgh, and he's got a ring in Philly, but it wasn't because of him.
01:43
Did he break your heart? That's my question. Did he break your heart?
01:49
He did not break my heart. I got nothing against him.
01:53
They gave him, like, very slim-picking chances in Pittsburgh.
01:58
One season or whatever, and they're like, we're done with him.
02:01
And I think they have screwed up quarterbacks there like no other of late.
02:06
And as far as I'm concerned, they just did it again.
02:09
Wilson, Fields, they had Trubisky.
02:12
They've had all these terrible quarterbacks, one after the next.
02:17
Well, we're good at that. We're great at terrible quarterbacks here in Cleveland.
02:20
I think we've had 40-plus starters since 99.
02:23
So if there was, like, a doctorate in bad quarterbacks, we would be the med school for the NFL.
02:30
It's interesting what you said about Pickett, though, because I think there's some people around here that think,
02:34
you know, with Kevin Stefanski, that maybe he could be a little bit better than what we've seen before.
02:39
I think they're going to give him every shot in the world to try to win the starting job,
02:43
especially when you watch the draft and see how far back they draft a quarterback.
02:48
If for some reason, you know, Cam Ward's there at two, or they changed their mind on Shadour Sanders is what it seems like.
02:54
I don't even know what their mind is.
02:56
But this week, it doesn't seem like Shadour Sanders is going to be their guy at two.
02:59
So, you know, the later you go in the draft, the farther they go in, and then they draft a quarterback down the road,
03:05
that I would think that Pickett's going to have a chance to be the starting quarterback, week one, for the Browns.
03:10
Okay, are they picking Hunter?
03:14
That's been the word the last week or so.
03:17
I don't know if they're playing games or not.
03:18
I mean, I really like Abdul Carter a lot, but I don't know.
03:22
This team averaged 15.2 points per game.
03:26
Pathetic.
03:26
The worst in the NFL.
03:27
They've got to figure out a way to score.
03:30
So, you know, traditionally, who picks a wide receiver or a defensive back, they keep calling him a unicorn because he can play both sides.
03:37
If he can help out the offense and they can win some games, then, yeah, it's the right pick.
03:42
And he could be, you know, if he's the best athlete in this draft, then I hope they take him.
03:46
I don't know.
03:47
I'm still, I like Abdul Carter.
03:48
I think he's great.
03:49
I just don't know what they're going to do.
03:51
And I can't see them not trying to get some kind of offensive help early in the draft.
03:56
They're horrible.
03:57
15.2 points per game.
04:00
If you want to count them as eight-point touchdowns, they're not even averaging two touchdowns a game.
