The Browns Are Desperate at QB and Taylen Green Is Why Everyone's Paying Attention  
Podcast: The Ken Carman Show with Anthony Lima

Description: Ken and Lima field calls on the LeBron debate before pivoting to the Browns, where Ken makes the case that all the buzz around sixth-round pick Taylen Green is not hype for hype's sake but a symptom of real desperation to fix an offense that has been holding back one of the top five defenses in the NFL. Mary Kay Cabot weighs in with cautious optimism that Green could actually see the field early in short-yardage situations if he cleans up his turnover issues, which Ken takes as validation that this is a legitimate conversation worth having. Ken also points out that the AFC North is more beatable than it has been in years, with questions surrounding Aaron Rodgers, Lamar Jackson, Joe Burrow, and the Ravens post-Harbaugh, making the urgency to fix the offense right now even more acute. The bottom line from Ken is blunt: every year you waste without a quarterback is another year you're burning down a great defense that will not last forever.
