Description: Ken and Nick take calls and dig into the uncomfortable theory that trading Garrett is less about building a winner and more about punting to 2029 when the new stadium opens, and Ken wants no part of that logic. A caller named Jim makes the blunt case that Myles is essentially putting nice tires on a bad car, pointing to the infamous six sack loss to the Patriots as proof that even a historically dominant defensive performance cannot save this team. Ken's real fear comes into focus by the end, arguing that trading Garrett does not just cost you wins this season, it potentially costs you Todd Monken, Andrew Barry, and the entire organizational continuity that Cleveland fans have been desperate for since 1999. The question hanging over everything is simple: if it is a seven win team with Garrett, what exactly are you signing up for without him?
