John Fanta of NBC Sports joins Afternoon Drive on The Fan. He talks about Deshaun Watson's comments about Browns fans, why he's most upset with Jimmy Haslam, why Shedeur Sanders won't start on Thursday, and more.

Cleveland Browns head coach Todd Monken named Deshaun Watson starting quarterback over Shedeur Sanders on Monday morning, but he cannot survive that press conference. Saturday, Watson went five of 12 against Buffalo, then told Cleveland the boos were personal. He joked about 17 away games and named his wife his person of peace. Browns owner Jimmy Haslam saw all of that and still doubled down on his mistake over Deion Sanders's son. Monken also understands this could be his one-and-only opportunity to be a head coach in the NFL, and starting Shedeur would waste his chance. He did not move off his belief that Deshaun is an NFL starter; it will be up to Deshaun Watson to prove him wrong with his play instead of acting like he's owed the respect of Browns fans.  #DeshaunWatson #DeshaunWatsonPressConference #ClevelandBrowns #ToddMonken #ShedeurSanders #NFL #Browns #Fearless ➢​​Today's Sponsors For a limited time, our listeners get 50% off FOR LIFE, Free Shipping, AND 3 Free Gifts at Mars Men at https://Mengotomars.com.

Gene shares his thoughts on the death of Ed Oliver's son and what the manner in which it became public reveals about the NFL. Plus, Gene and producer Tim Schneider have had enough of Deshaun Watson, and 49ers' owner Jed York is in hot water.

Ken and Anthony dissect a Baker Mayfield clip from Jarvis Landry's "Fourth and South" podcast in which Mayfield credits John Dorsey, Elliot Wolf, and Alonzo Highsmith for changing the Browns' culture but says "not everybody was trying to help us win," and try to figure out who he's subtly targeting. Ken pushes the theory that Mayfield is talking about Myles Garrett, pointing to Jimmy Haslam letting Mayfield have input on hiring Freddie Kitchens as head coach and framing it as payback for the front office favoring Garrett, while Anthony argues Mayfield was speaking to locker-room dynamics generally, name-checking Odell Beckham Jr. and questioning whether Deshaun Watson could even be the target since they were never in the building together. They also touch on Mayfield noting Tampa Bay's Week 2 home game against Cleveland is "circled" on his schedule, debate whether Andrew Berry fits the criticism despite reaching the playoffs with Mayfield, and needle each other over accusations of "gaslighting" the audience with dueling theories.

After a quick Cavs update touching on James Harden's offseason drama and the roster's EuroLeague pickups, the show turns back to the Browns when caller Tony argues Jimmy Haslam won't let Shedeur Sanders start Week 1 because keeping him in reserve preserves fan intrigue and ticket sales for a season the team doesn't expect to win. Ken pushes back that Haslam is likely deferring to Todd Monken's football judgment rather than dictating the decision himself, but agrees with the business logic Tony lays out if neither quarterback is considered good long-term. Ken argues there's still more curiosity left in Sanders than in Deshaun Watson, so holding him back keeps something in reserve for later in a lost season either way.

After a brutal, flooded commute for both hosts, Ken and Anthony dig into whether Todd Monken tipped his hand toward Deshaun Watson getting first-team reps, per Mary Kay Cabot's report from practice. Ken argues that ownership desperately wants Shedeur Sanders to succeed given the fanbase's reaction and that money is never the deciding factor for Jimmy Haslam, meaning if Watson does start, it's a real sign Sanders simply wasn't ready. They preview next Saturday's preseason opener in Chicago as a de facto referendum on the quarterback competition, predicting a wave of overreactions no matter how it plays out.

Ken and Anthony debate whether ownership or Todd Monken truly controls the Browns' quarterback decision, with Ken drawing on the Johnny Manziel era to argue that this front office has learned from past mistakes of letting fan pressure override coaching judgment. Ken insists money isn't a factor for Jimmy Haslam and that if Monken wants Deshaun Watson, it's genuinely his call, while predicting ownership would be thrilled if Shedeur Sanders earned the job instead. The conversation shifts back to Jared Verse and the emotional reaction from Rams players, with Ken doubling down that culture and leadership matter more long-term than raw sack totals, even if it means a rough 2026. He again braces for backlash in December if the win total doesn't back up his "long game" theory on Verse's value.

A caller named Brandi pushes back on the "nobody's playing well" narrative surrounding the Browns' quarterback competition, arguing that Deshaun Watson's reported six interceptions in practice, compared to zero from Shedeur Sanders, makes it disingenuous to treat the race as a toss-up. Ken agrees the numbers favor Shedeur but stands by his open-minded stance, noting he's simply relaying reports rather than pushing an agenda, and points out specific instances where other Cleveland media members (Jason Lloyd and Mary Kay Cabot) have publicly favored handing Watson the job outright. The conversation shifts to Jimmy Haslam's preseason comments, with Ken defending Haslam's "take the over" answer on 5.5 wins as a reasonably cautious, non-committal way to manage expectations rather than an outlandish claim.

Ken Carman and Anthony Lima react to reports the Browns showed interest in re-signing Jadeveon Clowney after trading Myles Garrett, and they're genuinely relieved he ended up in Houston instead. Ken argues bringing Clowney back would have undone the locker room progress the team has made, pointing to his disastrous second stint and the well-documented dysfunction that followed. He also pushes back on the narrative that Garrett was somehow the source of past locker room problems just because the Browns showed interest in Clowney. The show opens with a lighter aside: reaction to Al Pulaski calling the Guardians' no-hitter instead of regular announcer Matt Underwood, plus Jimmy Haslam's preseason comments taking the over on 5.5 wins and praise for Denzel Ward's extension and Grant Delpit.

Baker Mayfield's contract talks with Tampa Bay have stalled, and Ken floats the wild idea of a Browns reunion that even he admits isn't very realistic but refuses to call impossible with Jimmy Haslam involved. The guys debate whether a bridge quarterback like Baker makes more sense than chasing Brendan Sorsby in the supplemental draft or trading up for a 2027 prospect. Anthony points out that Baker finished anywhere from 19th to 26th in advanced metrics last year, making the whole conversation a reminder of just how unsettled the Browns quarterback situation truly is.

Albert Breer's deep dive into the Myles Garrett trade reveals that Andrew Berry had a secret think tank of some of the most respected executives in sports, including Sam Presti and Chaim Bloom, helping him work up the nerve to trade a future Hall of Famer. The Browns handled this departure so cleanly that Garrett was literally sitting in Jimmy Haslam's house for a final summit after the deal was done, a far cry from the ugly Baker Mayfield divorce that left everyone bitter. Ken makes the point that the Browns have basically admitted to the whole world they do not think they are good enough to compete right now, so the pressure is on to make every single one of those picks count.

Ken Carman and Anthony Lima react to the shocking trade of Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams and analyze Andrew Berry's lengthy statement.
