On our postgame edition of the Orange and Brown Talk podcast, Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe break down the Browns' frustrating 27-20 loss to the New York Jets. They start with the quarterback position. After Kevin Stefanski announced he's sticking with Dillon Gabriel, they discuss why that might be the right call, giving Gabriel and new play-caller Tommy Rees more time to gel. They weigh the patience required for a rookie against the growing fan clamor to see Shedeur Sanders, acknowledging that the rest of the season is about evaluating these young quarterbacks. Then, the conversation shifts to the special teams, which completely imploded. A kickoff return and a punt return for touchdowns in just 36 seconds led to 14 points for the Jets. On defense, a critical offsides penalty by Cam Thomas cost the Browns dearly. This leads to a bigger discussion: Is this loss the final straw? The hosts question the coaching, the mental errors and whether it's fair to start wavering on the long-term outlook for Kevin Stefanski and his staff. It was a day of maddening mistakes that has them wondering where the Browns go from here in another disappointing season.

On this episode of the Orange and Brown Talk podcast, Mary Kay Cabot Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe tackle the futures of two key offensive weapons for the Browns. First up is tight end David Njoku, who expressed his desire to remain a Brown for life after surviving the trade deadline. With his contract expiring, they discuss what a potential extension could look like, weighing his age, injury history and excellent blocking against the presence of rookie Harold Fannin Jr. and the strategy of letting the free-agent market determine his price. Next, they turn to the perplexing struggles of wide receiver Jerry Jeudy. After a breakout 2024 season and great offseason, Jeudy's performance has been a major disappointment, marked by drops and frustration. They try to find the root causes: Is it on Jeudy, or is the team's quarterback instability and overall offensive woes to blame? They explore whether a new play-caller in Tommy Rees and the return of Cedric Tillman can help get him back on track for the remainder of the season and beyond, as the Browns are counting on him to be a cornerstone of their passing attack.
