The Browns lost to the Bengals on Sunday, a loss that doesn't officially take them out of the playoff race but leaves them far outside the playoff picture with time running out. So why do the Browns keep getting a pass year after year when they fail to meet expectations? What's on the table for the Browns as far as making changes this offseason? Will we see a new defensive coordinator? New special teams coach? Is Kevin Stefanski on the hot seat? Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe go through questions from our Football Insider subscribers on the Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast on Tuesday. They cover everything from the future of the Browns to what to watch in the final four games of the season to the progress Deshaun Watson made on Sunday in Cincinnati.

The Browns were back to work on Wednesday and first up on the to-do list this week is getting Deshaun Watson to look more like Watson on the field on Sunday. He looked rusty and played the lowest-rated game of his career against the Texans. Is there a scenario where Kevin Stefanski should turn to Jacoby Brissett on Sunday? Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe discussed some pros and cons, why the Browns might consider and why they should or shouldn’t on Thursday’s Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. They also talked about why the Browns have had so much success against the Bengals and the vibes going into the game. They discuss Anthony Schwartz going on IR and what it means for his future and also the return of David Njoku.

The Browns passing game left a lot to be desired on Sunday when Deshaun Watson played his first game in 700 days. He struggled with his timing and his accuracy and the Browns relied on the defense and special teams to score for them. This week brings a big matchup with the Bengals. Will Watson and the Browns get their issues figured out in time to head to Cincinnati and get a win? Did how rusty Watson looked surprsie the Browns?

Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson officially took over the first team reps when the Browns took the practice field on Wednesday in preparation for the Houston Texans. How did he look? Ashley Bastock checked in with Dan Labbe on our Thursday Orange and Brown Talk Podcast to talk about what she saw and heard on Wednesday. Ashley and Dan also discussed why Watson didn't address the media on Wednesday, which is normally the day the quarterback talks, and why it matters -- at least until he finally does break his silence. They also got into what the offense will look like with Watson. Dan wraps up the podcast with his Playoff Committee of 1 rankings for the week.

Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski will finally have his franchise quarterback this week when the Browns travel to Houston to take on the Texans. How much pressure is on Stefanski over these final six games? One of our Football Insiders asked that very question on our Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe discuss all things Watson and the Browns on Tuesday's show. They also discuss Watson and how rusty he might be in his first game back and who he will help elevate when he takes the field. Then they get into Jacoby Brissett and where he fits among Browns starting quarterbacks since 1999 and expectations for the season's final six games. Can the Browns still make the playoffs?

On this postgame Orange and Brown Talk podcast, Doug Lesmerises, Mary Kay Cabot, Dan Labbe, Ashley Bastock and Irie Harris break down the Cleveland Browns' 23-17 overtime win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers that lifted the Browns to 4-7 on the season. First, Doug and Mary Kay talk about what went right for the Browns and what the win might do for the team, with Deshaun Watson taking over as the starting quarterback next week. Then (14:39), Dan, Ashley and Irie join Doug to talk about whether Kevin Stefanski thought about going for 2 in the final minute of regulation. Then (16:30) the discussion turns to Jacoby Brissett and how he performed Sunday and in his 11 games as the Browns' starting quarterback. How much could this win lift the Browns? That's (24:08) the next topic, followed by a brief look at Cade York's missed field goal (33:49). Then it's the struggles of the offense in the second half (37:00), followed by David Njoku's huge touchdown catch to save the game and how much it swung the emotions around the Browns this week (46:10).

It starts this week with a mathcup against Tom Brady and the Buccaneers at FirstEnergy Stadium.

Lance Reisland joins Dan in the second segment of the podcast to dig into the Browns' loss to the Bills. Why do the same things keep going wrong? What's wrong with the rushing offense?

The Browns aren't mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, but the outlook is bleak after their loss to the Bills on Sunday to drop to 3-7.

It's one of the questions our Football Insider subscribers has on today's Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. Mary Kay and Dan Labbe discuss this question and more. Will Joe Woods survive until the end of the season? If not, who could replace him? What's the future at both tackle positions? What would Mary Kay advise Andrew Berry to do this offseason?

This postgame Orange and Brown Talk Podcast breaks down Buffalo's 31-23 win over the Browns on Sunday. Mary Kay Cabot checks in off the top to discuss with Doug Lesmerises what went wrong for the Browns and whether this teams someone to provide a kick in the pants. Then (12:23), Dan Labbe, Ashley Bastock and Irie Harris join Doug to discuss the leadership issue and to discuss why the Browns keep starting hot on offense and then falling apart. The last segment (30:41) makes a comparison to self-driving cars and asks why, after the Browns moved on from Baker Mayfield in pursuit of a Super Bowl-level quarterback, they wouldn't view their coaching situation the same way. Because the view right now is that the Browns are not that well-coached. Thanks for listening to Orange and Brown Talk.

In 2018, the Browns had a choice to make: Baker Mayfield or Josh Allen (and a few others). They chose Mayfield. Five hears later, Allen is leading a contender in Buffalo and is a consistent MVP candidate. Mayfield is a bakcup for the Carolina Panthers and the Browns gave up the farm for Deshaun Watson. We’re starting Buffalo week with a look back and we’re redrafting the 2018 NFL Draft. What if the Browns had taken Allen? How would he have developed here? What would this team look like without Nick Chubb? What if Lamar Jackson didn’t land in Baltimore? Mary Kay Cabot, Doug Lesmerises, Ashley Bastock, Irie Harris and Dan Labbe take on all of those topics and more on our Wednesday Orange and Brown Talk.

On this postgame episode of the Orange and Brown Talk podcast, Mary Kay Cabot, Dan Labbe and Ashley Bastock are in Miami to report on the Browns' 39-17 loss to Miami, and Doug Lesmerises and Irie Harris join them to go over everything that went wrong in this blowout loss that dropped the Browns to 3-6. The Browns can't stop the run, and will that problem continue? How much did Mike McDaniel outcoach Kevin Stefanski? How much longer can defensive coordinator Joe Woods go on with the defense playing like this? Did Andrew Berry build a roster with fundamental problems? Do the Browns have any chance to get better before playing Buffalo and Tampa Bay the next two weeks? And how much should the return of Deshaun Watson in three weeks make things better?

The Miami Dolphins have an explosive passing attack. Tua Tagovaiola is playing better than he ever has. Tyreek Hill is on a record-setting pace. Jaylen Waddle isn't far behind. How will the Browns deal with this explosive passing game? Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe looked ahead to Sunday's game on Thursday's Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. What will this defense do to make sure they don't fall victim to blown coverages again? How will Myles Garrett and Jadeveon Clowney impact the game? Then they swing over to the offensive side of the ball for the Browns to discuss their rushing attack against the Dolphins defense and whether Jacoby Brissett can get the passing game going against one of his former teams.

The Browns travel to Miami on Sunday to take on a Dolphins team playing well to start the season. Miami is battling with Buffalo in the AFC East and one of the teams the Browns are chasing in the Wild Card standings. Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe start by discussing how things didn't go the Browns way over the bye week with mostly the wrong teams winning. Then they get you ready for Dolphins week with what they're thinking this week. How has Tua Tagovailoa looked this season? Can Myles Garrett still push for Defensive Player of the Year? How do the Browns match up with the speed in the Dolphins' receiver room. They discuss it all on Wednesday's Orange and Brown Talk Podcast.

The Browns are 3-5 after eight games and coming off their bye week but they are hardly out of the playoff race, even if they'll need some help. Mary Kay Cabot starts off our weekly Hey, Mary Kay! podcast answering a question from one of our Football Insider subscribers about what would constitute a failure for this team this season. Is it playoffs or bust or did the Deshaun Watson suspension change that? Then, Mary Kay and Dan Labbe discuss Josh Allen's potential injury before they get into why the defense has improved so much over the last two games and whether this Sunday in Miami is a must-win.
