The Dawgs - A Cleveland Browns Podcast

What's up, Browns fans! Super Bowl LVI is now in the books, and the Browns didn't play in the game or win it, despite all the preseason hype. The Rams pulled out the late victory over the Bengals, but many fans are attributing some of the victory to some very suspect calls late in the game. We break it all down and give our thoughts, so let us know yours! Also, we can't talk Super Bowl...

What's up, Browns fans! Welcome to the 2nd Annual Mad Dawg Awards! We've cleaned up nicely for the bright lights, and the nominees are ready to finally find out who the winners will be. Who were the rookies of the year? Who had the best single-game performance? Who's the comeback player of the year? And it all wraps up with this year's MVP award. Also, we discuss everyone's fav...

What's up, Browns fans! Well, the greatest quarterback--and probably player--in NFL history has decided to hang up the cleats for good. After much controversy, Tom Brady officially announced his retirement today. We take some time to discuss and appreciate the fact that we've been fortunate enough to watch Brady first-hand during our lifetime. Also, we dive into a voicemail question about...

What's up, Browns fans! What an amazing weekend of football we just witnessed. Incredible quarterback performances, defensive plays, high-pressure kicks, and special teams breakdowns. We saw MONSTER throws, catches, and ankle-breaking routes. And no Browns fan could watch these games without mentally comparing these playoff teams to the team in Cleveland that's sitting at home like us. One...

What's up, Browns fans! Welcome to our 100th episode, a milestone made possible only by you listening and/or watching this show. We can't thank you enough for all the support! The rumors are already swirling as the Browns offseason gets underway. We discuss the newest big-name player linked to the Browns, Calvin Ridley from the Atlanta Falcons. Also, Malik McDowell made his case NOT to ret...

What's up, Browns fans! The Browns wrapped up the 2021 NFL season with their series sweep against the Cincinnati Bengals in a 21-16 victory that pitted backup against backups. Yes, it was very much like another exhibition game, but we did get to see Nick Chubb for a bit, along with many defensive starters. If this was indeed Jarvis Landry's final game as a Brown, he definitely went out on...

What's up, Browns fans! The finale of the most disappointing Browns season ever comes this Sunday in Cleveland against the AFC Champion Cincinnati Bengals. Definitely not a sentence we ever thought we'd be writing before the season. But that's why they play the games. With Baker Mayfield already ruled out for this game, what do YOU want to see? Should Nick Chubb, Myles Garrett, and the...

What's up, Browns fans! The Browns rang in the New Year with what was by far their worst performance of the season on Monday Night Football against the Steelers. It was Ben Roethlisberger's final game in Pittsburgh and against the Browns, and the Steelers quarterback just tacked on another win to his name. The Browns defense played well once again despite being eliminated from the playoffs...

What's up, Browns fans! HAPPY NEW YEAR! And as of the recording of this episode, the Browns still have a chance to start 2022 with playoff hopes. That's right, there's still a chance for the Browns to make the playoffs, and here are the scenarios that need to happen (and it's not so farfetched): The Ravens must lose to the Rams (Week 17) or the Steelers (Week 18) The Bengals must l...

What's up, Browns fans! We got to experience two gut-punching losses in one week as the Browns lost their second straight 2-point game to the Green Bay Packers. It was a brutal outing for Baker Mayfield, who handed the ball to the Packers 4 times. The Browns defense, however, buckled down and limited Aaron Rodgers and the high-flying Packers to just 3 points in the second half. But it was one...

What's up, Browns fans! Before we dive into the game preview, we want to wish everyone out there a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Enjoy time with your family, friends, and loved ones. Christmas Day will bring a matchup between the Browns and the Packers in Green Bay. Green Bay comes in as a touchdown favorite in this one. Aaron Rodgers is having another MVP-level season. It's hard not...

What's up, Browns fans! The Browns lost to the Las Vegas Raiders in a 16-14 gut punch straight to the heart in a makeshift COVID Monday Night Football game. Despite the league finally deciding to postpone the game, the Browns still had a large majority of starters on the COVID list. Nick Mullens led the Browns offense to 14 points (should've been 17), and the defense gave a tremendous effo...

What's up, Browns fans! Don't look now, but the Browns are right in the playoff mix. On Saturday, the Browns will battle another team fighting for playoff positioning when they face the Las Vegas Raiders in Cleveland. The Raiders have endured serious adversity this season, including the firing of their head coach and the tragically unfortunate release of their former first-round receiver....

What's up, Browns fans! The Cleveland Browns were the SOLE victors from the AFC North this weekend as they escaped the Baltimore Ravens 24-22. While it certainly wasn't pretty in the second half, the Browns held on to strengthen their positioning for the playoffs. Lamar Jackson left the game early, and Myles Garrett and gang continued their stretch if dominate defensive performances. Jerem...

What's up, Browns fans! It's safe to say the BYE week was much needed not just for the Browns but us fans as well. For a whole weekend, we didn't need to worry about our boys in Cleveland; we just sat back and watched the rest of the AFC look pedestrian. Despite the 6-6 record, the Browns have a very serious chance to make the playoffs, but it all begins Sunday with a victory over the...

What's up, Browns fans! The NFL has finally shown the Browns some mercy and allowed us to take a much-needed BYE week. Let's face it, everyone: this team is a straight-up mess. The Browns have played 12 games this season, and the only game we can say the team clicked on both sides of the ball was against the Cincinnati Bengals. Other than that, either the defense has struggled or the offen...

What's up, Browns fans! Well half the team showed up in Baltimore on Sunday night when the Browns lost to the Ravens 16-10. The Browns defense intercepted Lamar Jackson FOUR times, but the offense only mustered a pathetic three points off those turnovers. Needless to say, we really didn't stand a chance if we weren't planning to score points. So let's just rip this bandaid off and...

What's up, Browns fans! HAPPY THANKSGIVING! Before we dive into the preview of the Browns first matchup with the Ravens, we want to express our deep and sincere gratitude to YOU and everyone who listens or watches our show. We wouldn't be able to do this without you, and we appreciate your support more than you know. The Browns travel to Baltimore for a Sunday Night primetime matchup again...

What's up, Browns fans! Before we say anything else, let's all acknowledge that, yes, the Browns won 13-10 against the Detroit Lions on Sunday. But on the other hand, the Browns won 13-10 against the Detroit Lions. Which goes to say it was not an encouraging win against a team who hasn't won a game all season (and they were also missing their starting quarterback). So let's dive in...

What's up, Browns fans! The Browns have the perfect get-right-game scenario with the Detroit Lions coming to Cleveland on Sunday. We try to put the Patriots debacle behind us (though we admit, the wounds are still fresh) and focus on what the Browns need to show us this week. Despite their 0-8-1 record, the Lions are not an 0-8-1 team. No, we're not saying they're a good team, but they...

What's up, Browns fans! We're not sure what we watched on Sunday, but it certainly wasn't a football game. The Browns got completely demolished by the New England Patriots in a 45-7 smackdown. But don't get it wrong, it was a total team effort in this loss. The offense was horrible, the defense was even worse, and special teams followed suit. We got outcoached, outplayed, and outsm...

What's up, Browns fans! The Browns face yet another must-win scenario as they head to Foxborough to face Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots. Though this is not the Tom Brady Patriots of yesteryear, it's still the Belichick defense that poses difficulties for opposing teams every year. In the middle of a tough divisional race, the Browns need to secure the victory to keep pace in t...

What's up, Browns fans! The Browns went down to Cincinnati and silenced the Bengals in a 41-16 beatdown in Week 9. Joe Burrow looked uncomfortable the entire game as the Browns defense manhandled the Bengals offense. Baker Mayfield and Nick Chubb led the Browns to some nice drives, big scores, and the victory in a much-needed divisional matchup. We discuss what looked great for the Browns and...

What's up, Browns fans! Are we all ready to watch Joe Burrow slice and dice this Browns defense when we travel to Cincinnati on Sunday? Ok, all jokes aside, we're trying to be positive about the rest of the 2021 season, but you gotta admit that things have been far below expectations thus far. It's time for Baker and The Boys (great show, by the way) to come out and just obliterate the...

What’s up, Browns fans! Well the Browns played—let’s call it less than ideal—in their 15-10 loss to the Steelers. The offense is a shell of its former self, and our defense still can’t get off the field on third down. However, if someone had said before Sunday that the Steelers would only score 15 points, we would’ve bet the house that the Brown came out winners. And we’d be crashing on someone’s...
