Hey, everybody, welcome back to Zach Jackson and Friends podcast. Thank you for coming today. Thank you for coming throughout this season as the podcast has started to grow. We've had fun with it. It hasn't been much fun during the Brown season, but I've been fortunate enough to have on some good guests to gain some traction in terms of listeners and people talking about it and wanting to tune in.

So I've been an odd schedule with the Browns up and down and the holidays and traveling on Monday night.

So it's me flying solo now.

It's Thursday night, the 5th.

We're looking ahead to Browns at Pittsburgh on Sunday.

We'll talk about the wild game and the big night for James and Jerry Judy, although

a crushing night for James.

And the Browns, we'll talk a little bit about conference championship weekend in college

football and kind of set the stage for what's ahead for the Browns as we get into December.

Yes, I know it's always December in Berea, and it has been this year since September 8th when they went out

and showed the world against the Cowboys that they were capable of having an embarrassingly bad offense

in its flat line from there.

So we'll see.

What's January going to bring for the Cleveland Browns? I don't know. I'm trying to find out. I just continue to say it's really hard to make a case

to keep this front office and to think that after this all in experiment with Watson and with this

year, with the other guys too, has flopped. It's just impossible to think that the people who created this can get this out of it. I mean, the Browns, you are what your record says you are, and that's in a given season. And we're, frankly, amen, hallelujah, five weeks from washing the records, right, for everybody except the teams that actually go on to the playoffs.

But just when you look at the Browns as a whole, they are way closer to the bottom teams.

They're way closer going forward to where the teams they are in the standings and they are to the real AFFC contenders they just are and i know they beat the ravens at home um they do have

good players still you know and in going forward having denzil ward having miles garrett um jerry judy

suddenly um is playing like a superstar.

You know, those are our positives.

And those are assets that a lot of other teams don't have.
