Cleveland When the Browns decided to go with Jameis Winston instead of Joe Flacco as their backup quarterback for the next season, hardly anybody saw it coming. After serving as New Orleans’ backup, Winston now plays for the Browns.
Dan Labbe, Ashley Bastock, and Mary Kay Cabot examine the Browns’ choice and how Winston came to be the one to support Deshaun Watson.
They talk about what they think went into the choice and what the Browns were thinking when they made it. Is it a more suitable plan than Flacco?
They also discuss whether or not the Browns should have thought about how they would have responded if Watson had struggled while Flacco was on the bench.
Before talking about Winston’s demeanour and his value as a backup, they address his off-field problems from his time at Florida State and the beginning of his career, as well as potential reactions from fans.
As the pod comes to a close, they attempt to speculate about Flacco’s possible future.
