The Browns’ 17–12 loss to the Jets brought a messy game, costly mistakes, and plenty of questions. Kenny Thunder and Ronnie Jams break down what went wrong—from Deshaun Watson and the struggling offense to the muffed punt, missed extra point, and a defense that did enough to give Cleveland a chance.
The hosts also debate Minkah Fitzpatrick’s hit on KC Concepcion, discuss the Browns’ run-game approach, field a question on whether or not Kevin Stefanski can actually coach, and consider what this loss says about a young team still finding its footing. Plus, they name their Dawg of the Week nominees and reflect on the emotional roller coaster that comes with being a Browns fan.
Was this just a bad day in the rain, or a sign of bigger concerns? Tune in for a candid postgame conversation about the loss, the lessons, and what Cleveland needs to show next.

BRS 167 - Week 5 Preview: 4 Going for 4
The Cleveland Browns are 3-1 after a thrilling Thursday Night Football win over Pittsburgh, and a mildly competent Deshaun Watson has the city riding an absolute high. In this episode, Kenny Thunder, Ronnie Jams, and The Bone Man break down the win, praise Andre Szmyt's clutch 56-yard game-winning field goal, and investigate the mysterious disappearance of rookie Joe Royer.
The guys also chat with Saratoga Mike from the Saratoga Brownsbackers, who shares a legendary core memory of being left completely alone in the stadium nosebleeds at eight years old during a 1985 double-overtime playoff game.
Episode Highlights:
Browns Brief: Riffing on Mina Kimes' praise of the Browns' future foundation, reading between the lines of Mary Kay Cabot's press conference questions, and debating if Shedeur Sanders has sideline attitude problems.
️Around the NFL & AB: Antonio Brown's unhinged social media "victory fits" (complete with a Robert Kraft bobblehead and CeraVe lotion) and a massive reality-check rant about Kevin Stefanski's success in Atlanta.
Gassed Up: Kenny fractures his own brain wondering why we cook at home to achieve "restaurant quality" food, while restaurants constantly advertise "home cooking."
Fired on Day One: A look at the Trailblazers firing an announcer for tweets he sent at 15 years old, contrasted against the massive second chances given to millionaires like Watson and Jed York.

BRS 166 - Week 4 Recap: Are You Szmyttin Me!?
The Browns are in first place, the defense is hunting, and Todd Monken has this team looking different. After a wild 27–24 win over Pittsburgh, Kenny Thunder, Ronnie Jams, and The Big Bone Man break down what’s clicking—and whether Cleveland fans are allowed to believe yet. (We’ll accept “cautiously optimistic” as a medical diagnosis.)
The crew digs into Deshaun Watson’s sharpest performance as a Brown, the offense’s emerging weapons, Quinshon Judkins’ progress, and the blocking issues that still need work. On defense, five different Browns recorded sacks, Denzel Ward remains timeless, and Grant Delpit delivered the game-sealing interception.
Plus: the Monken effect, a louder crowd, a young defensive core, and the familiar Browns-fan mix of celebration, skepticism, and hope. Is this team for real—or just giving us another reason to check the standings twice?
