Browns Plainly Podcast

Mary Kay Cabot is off to Las Vegas for the Super Bowl, but first she took time to record a Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast with Dan Labbe.

They start the podcast by getting into what Mary Kay hopes to accomplish each year when she goes to the Super Bowl and what she's looking for when she's there. Then they get into listener questions.

They start with a question about the Browns potentially playing their opening game in Brazil against the Eagles and if it could really happen.

Then they answer questions about Deshaun Watson. When will he throw again and will he be ready in the spring? How do we judge the trade two years in and does Baker Mayfield's success this season chnge how we view it?

They also talk about potential cap casualties and if there are any as the Browns manage their roster this offseason.

The Cleveland Browns had new offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey meet the press. Dorsey spoke on the depth of his interview in Berea and how he's excited to get work with Deshaun Watson and help him return to elite level.

Mock Draft Monday as Jeff Lloyd tries to plug some of the Browns roster needs with players. Mike Hall Jr would be a slam dunk fit for Jim Schwartz's defense.

Audric Estime would be a great additon at running back with a great size/speed combo and is only 20 years old which the Browns brass will defintely notice.

Javon Baker out of UCF is a true vertical threat and the Browns saw with Joe Flacco how much the vertical game did for their success to close out the 2023 season.

The Cleveland Browns have been relocated to Mobile Alabama to get their first glimpses of the 2024 NFL Draft Class and the OBR's Pete Smith gives us the details.

The offensive tackle class is loaded and if the Browns move on from one of their own, there are plenty of guys who could come in to assist.

Mike Hall Jr, out of Ohio State has begun which should be a nice draft arc as he will hit every desirable trait Andrew Berry seeks in a prospect.

Bill Callahan is leaving to join his son in Nashville but the Browns will be more than fine.

The Browns are set to hire Ken Dorsey as their new offensive coordinator as they try to jumpstart Deshaun Watson's career and try to move their offense forward. On Wednesday's Orange and Brown Talk, we dive into the Dorsey hire.

Our film expert, Lance Reisland, joins the show to talk about what he's seeing while watching Dorsey's time as a playcaller in Buffalo. What has he learned about his scheme and what will he bring to the Browns.

Then Matt Parrino, Bills beat writer for Syracuse.com, joins the show. He talks about what happened with Dorsey and why he was fired during the season. He also talks about how Dorsey helped Josh Allen develop as his quarterbacks coach and then his coordinator and discussed Dorsey as a playcaller.

The Browns have a clear need at wide receiver and it just so happens there's a receiver who played a few hours down I-71 slated to hit free agency this offseason.

One of our Football Insider questions wondered what the Browns might do at receiver this season on Tuesday's Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk podcast and it leads to a discussion about Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins and if the Browns could steal him away from their division rival.

First, they answer questions about new offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey and his role and what he brings to the offense. They also talk about the team's strength of schedule next season, the possibility of restructuring contracts and more.

The Cleveland Browns after a thorough search have agreed to terms with Ken Dorsey to be their new offensive coordinator. Dorsey after years with the Carolina Panthers was most recently the Buffalo Bills OC but was let go after a slow start in the '23 season. The slow start apparently wasn't because of Dorsey's doing.

In 2022 the then Bills offense was firing on all cylinders with the passing game and the running game. The Bills top two receivers combined for 2.300 yards and featured solid production from the tight end and running backs in the passing game. They ran the ball at a very high yards per carry.

Dorsey's time was cut short in '23 but apparently that was because of a bad call from those that Dorsey had to answer to.

The Browns hired former Bills offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey as their offensive coordinator. He takes over for Alex Van Pelt as the Browns look to remake the offensive side of the ball around Deshaun Watson.

Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe recapped the decision to hire Dorsey and what it all means for the offense as the offensive side of the ball evolves.

They discuss whether Kevin Stefanski will give up playcalling or if Dorsey will slide into more of a role similar to Van Pelt. They also discuss why they think Dorsey got fired in Buffalo and if there’s concern that he did get fired or if he was the scapegoat.

They also recap what they saw in the AFC and NFC championship games.
