Is Saying the Word Playoffs About the 3-1 Browns Really a Crime?
Is Saying the Word Playoffs About the 3-1 Browns Really a Crime?  
Podcast: The Ken Carman Show with Anthony Lima
Published On: Fri Oct 09 2026
Description: Ken plays his heated exchange with Nick and JP from the day before, where Nick argues that talking playoffs at 3-1 puts the Browns in an awful spot and Ken fires back that everyone is being too sensitive. Ken and Lima explain why they predicted a five-win season (shaky quarterback play, thin depth, little experience), then credit the improved special teams, the coaching and the Browns' three comeback wins. They agree the Browns are a good team with a solid foundation, that the NFL makes quick turnarounds possible, and that nobody's feelings get hurt by saying "playoffs" before Sunday's Jets game.
