Dallas Makes a Splash, Desperate Times for the Texans, and More Main Characters for Week 4

PelisseroThey have not started 3 -1 since 2001, 25 years ago. They have not been in first place in the AFC North since November 9th, 2014.

PelisseroSo regardless of where the season goes from here, and we'll talk about how real, how sustainable this is for the Browns, I give it to them. If you're a member of the Dog Pound, if you were in the stadium or watching that game last night, enjoy this regardless of how long it

Kapadialasts. Yeah, because it feels like there's certain fan bases and the Browns fall into that, the Jets fall into that, where when their team's in the spotlight, like on national TV or an island game, they're not excited. They're not like, this is great. it's like, please don't embarrass us. It's like your uncle, you know, at the family gathering or whatever.

KapadiaOh God, he's had his third glass of wine. This is going to about to go bad. That's how they feel about their teams. And they didn't embarrass them. They played well. I think the story about the Browns is, and Tom, you mentioned this in a recent pod, their recent drafts. I mean, it really feels like they have some young players who are going to be key contributors, maybe all pro players, but certainly like high quality starters in the NFL.

KapadiaThat was on full display. last night. Denzel Boston, Casey Concepcion, the tackle, Spencer Fano they were highlighting during the broadcast.

KapadiaDefensively, Carson Schwestinger had a nice game. Emmanuel McNeil Warren, even though he has the one penalty at the end, he was making some big -time plays earlier in that game. These are all guys they drafted who are on rookie contracts right now. So you have that to feel good about if you're a Browns fan.

KapadiaAnd then Todd Munkin is doing, Billy, like a Bruce Arians impression here. He's just like, I'm the old no -nonsense coach. I've seen a lot of ball, you know, all you young whippersnappers, I got more in my mind than you guys have, you know, acting like you've reinvented football. And he's doing a pretty good job.
