Orange and Brown Talk: Cleveland Browns Podcast

The Browns are on to Cincinnati this week, traveling south to face the Bengals for the second time this season. Cincinnati is clinging to faint playoff hopes and the Browns hope to dash them with an upset on Sunday.

Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe start our preview edition of the Orange and Brown Talk podcast by discussing the storylines they’re looking at as the 3-11 Browns try to play spoiler in another AFC North matchup.

Then Lance Reisland joins the podcast to give a scouting report. What is allowing Joe Burrow to have so much success this season? How can the Browns slow the Bengals passing attack? What about that shaky Bengals defense? Lance also makes his pick for the game.

Finally, Ashley joins Mary Kay and Dan to wrap up the podcast with their picks for Sunday.

Should the Browns pursue Kirk Cousins this offseason?

The Browns will be in the quarterback market this offseason and we’re still waiting for the full market to take shape, but one domino fell this week when Atlanta benched Kirk Cousins in favor of rookie Michael Penix Jr.

Cousins has a history with Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski, so should there be at least some interest in facilitating a reunion between the two?

Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe start Thursday’s Orange and Brown Talk podcast by discussing Dorian Thompson-Robinson taking over as Browns starter but then they pivot to Cousins.

Is Cousins done or can the Browns revive him? Is he too old for them to look at as a starter for next season? What factors do they need to consider on their roster next year and beyond?

Would fans hold a grudge against Myles Garrett if he left? Postgame podcast

The Browns lost to the Bengals on Sunday, 24-6, but Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe are more focused on what pass rusher Myles Garrett had to say on Friday and what he added to those comments on Sunday, even after he passed the 100 career sack mark.

That’s where they start their postgame Orange and Brown Talk postgame podcast. Are they surprised fans are siding more with Garrett after he voiced his displeasure? What does it say about the approval rating of the organization that they are so readily siding with Garrett?

What does that all mean as far as the potential of postseason changes and if it could spur change?

They also spend a little time on the loss, including the play of quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson.
