Zone Coverage 090425

The Browns are now 0-2 after a shellacking Sunday by the Ravens, and questions abound: Does the team have a special teams problem? Is it time to change quarterbacks? How secure is Kevin Stefanski's job? Scott Petrak and Dave Chudowsky of WKYC-TV try to answer those and more -- and look ahead to the Browns' matchup against the Packers, the hottest team in the NFL right now.

Zone Coverage 091625

The Browns, who were kept off the scoreboard for 56 minutes Sunday, get in the win column with a stunning victory against the Green Bay Packers.

Zone Coverage 092325

Is a change at hand for the Browns? The team traveled to Detroit and got hammered by the Lions in another showcase of their inept offense, and coach Kevin Stefanski was noncommittal about Joe Flacco's future at quarterback.

Zone Coverage 093025

The Browns proved they could lose on two continents, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory against the Vikings in London. Scott Petrak and Dave Chudowsky of WKYC-TV break down the loss, talking about all the things that could go wrong, if the seat's getting hotter for Kevin Stefanski and the debut of Dillon Gabriel at quarterback. They also preview this weekend's matchup against the Steelers in Pittsburgh. (This podcast was recorded before news that the Browns traded quarterback Joe Flacco to the Bengals.)

Zone Coverage 100725

It's hard to believe, but the Browns offense looked even worse last week in a 23-9 loss to the Steelers. Joe Flacco and Greg Newsome are gone, and the Haslams appear to have come to an agreement with the city of Cleveland about leaving the city for a dome in Brook Park.

Scott Petrak talks with Dave Chudowsky of WKYC-TV about that debacle, which included the bright spot of Myles Garrett recording a team-record five sacks, injuries and more questions about who else might play quarterback for the Browns this year. Also, the trade deadline looms, and Scott and Chud talk about who might be leaving Cleveland.

Zone Coverage 102825

The Browns were off this week, but there was still a lot going on. The team mostly stood pat at the trade deadline, despite speculation of a Myles Garrett trade. One of the most active teams at the deadline was the Browns' opponent this week, the Jets. Scott Petrak talks with Dave Chudowsky of WKYC-TV about all that and more.

Zone Coverage 110525

In a battle of two of the NFL's worst teams, the Browns proved to be more inept than the Jets, giving up two special teams touchdowns and sealing the loss with late defensive miscues.

Zone Coverage 111125

The Browns lost again. They held a halftime lead against the Ravens, but Shedeur Sanders went in to replace Dillon Gabriel following a head injury, and he did not acquit himself well. Scott Petrak recaps the game with Dave Chudowsky of WKYC-TV, the two talk about Bernie Kosar’s health problems, the team’s otherworldly defense and preview the upcoming game against the Raiders.

Zone Coverage 111825

The Browns got in the win column Sunday, riding another dominant defensive performance and  capitalizing on a change at quarterback, from Dillon Gabriel to Shedeur Sanders. Beat writer Scott Petrak talks with Dave Chudowsky of WKYC-TV about the win, Myles Garrett's otherworldly season and the decision to start Sanders again now that Gabriel's cleared concussion protocol. The two also preview this week's game against a battered 49ers team -- the second time in as many weeks that the Browns' opponent gets a short week.

Zone Coverage 112525

The Browns laid an egg in Shedeur Sanders' home debut against the 49ers. Scott Petrak talks with Dave Chudowsky of WKYC-TV about the 26-8 loss that included numerous special teams miscues, how this is a lost season in a mediocre division and makes a bold prediction for next week's game against the Titans.

Zone Coverage 120225

The Browns lost to the one-win Titans on Sunday in the type of game that beat writer Scott Petrak says gets coaches fired. The big bright spot, however, was a great performance by Shedeur Sanders, even if he couldn't bring home the win. Scott talks with WKYC-TV's Dave Chudowsky about the injuries that continue to plague the Browns, when Myles Garrett might break the single-season sack record and Kevin Stefanski's future with the team. The two also preview next week's game against the Bears in Chicago.

120925 Zone Coverage

The Browns got stomped by the Bears 31-3 on Sunday. Shedeur Sanders did some things right and some things wrong and Myles Garrett got closer to the season sack record. Scott Petrak talks about the game with Dave Chudowsky of WKYC-TV, and the two preview this week's matchup with the Bills and what could be a very busy offseason for the Browns -- and not necessarily in a good way.

121625 Zone Coverage

The Browns put up some fight, but ended up losing to the Bills on Sunday. Quinshon Judkins' season is over after a gruesome injury, and Myles Garrett is a little closer to the sack record.
