Should the Cleveland Browns consider signing the "Punt God" Matt Araiza? May 10, 2023

Show notes

The NFL schedule release show is Thursday night and the 2023 season for the Cleveland Browns should have plenty of primetime matchups on the slate.

How many primetime games will Deshaun Watson, Nick Chubb and Myles Garrett play?

Cordarrelle Patterson could be on his way out of Atlanta after the team drafted Bijan Robinson in the first round of last month's NFL Draft. Patterson is a versatile back who is an elite kick returner as well, which could make him the perfect RB2 behind Chubb in Kevin Stefanski's new offense.

Corey Bojorquez had an okay season as the Browns punter last year, but he wasn't spectacular by any means. With that in mind, would it make any sense for the Browns to bring in Matt Araiza - the "Punt God" - now that he's been cleared of any legal troubles dating back to his days in college?

What do the Cleveland Guardians need to do with all their young arms when Triston McKenzie and Aaron Civale return from their injuries? Do they trade them? Send them down? Go to a 6-man rotation?

Legendary women's golfer Annika Sörenstam also makes her UCSS debut!

Cal Quantrill dominant for a second straight start | Guardians beat the Twins 2-0, wins series 2-1 May 08, 2023

Show notes

As of this exact moment in time, Jerome Ford is slated to be Nick Chubb's backup for the Cleveland Browns in 2023.

Ford showed flashes of promise as a rookie, but he had very few opportunities.

Does the team need to sign a veteran RB2, or can Kevin Stefanski sleep at night knowing his running game is in good hands if Nick Chubb somehow gets hurt?

Cal Quantrill pitched an absolute gem for the Cleveland Guardians on Sunday, holding the Minnesota Twins to one hit in seven innings of work as the Guards held on for the 2-0 win. Cleveland took two of three from the Twins to inch closer to first place.

How badly did Terry Francona's team need that series win to instill some confidence back in this bunch?

The Cleveland Cavaliers announced over the weekend Nick Gilbert, the son of Dan Gilbert, passed away from medical complications. What will be Nick's lasting legacy in Cleveland?

Plus, Bronny James committed to play hoops at USC next season. Did the Buckeyes fumble the bag on his recruitment?
