Should the Browns turn back to Dorian Thompson-Robinson? Hey, Mary Kay! Oct 31, 2023

Show notes

The Browns could face another week this week without starting quarterback Deshaun Watson when they host Arizona on Sunday at Cleveland Browns Stadium. They will face either Kyler Murray or Clayton Tune.

If Watson misses another game, should Kevin Stefanski stick with P.J. Walker or should he revisit Dorian Thompson-Robinson and give him another shot? It's the first question Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe discuss on a Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast.

They also discuss this important stretch of games coming up and when the right time for Watson to come back will be. They also get into Tuesday's trade deadline and what the Browns could look to add as well as the play of the defense and they react in real-time to the Cardinals' QB decision.

Should the Browns look into bringing back Jacoby Brissett? Hey, Mary Kay! Oct 24, 2023

Show notes

The Browns appear headed for another week of quarterback "Will he or won't he?" this week as they prepare for a trip to Seattle to face the Seahawks. Deshaun Watson's status remains up in the air after Kevin Stefanski held him out of Sunday's game after Watson started and took a big hit.

It has some of our Football Insider subscribers wondering if the Browns should shore up their backup quaterback situation by inquiring about last year's backup quarterback, Jacoby Brissett, who is now the backup in Washington.

Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe discuss Watson and Brissett on Tuesday's Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast.

Then they look back at Sunday's game and talk Dustin Hopkins, P.J. Walker and balancing covering a big win while other storylines swirl.
