The hosts delve into the interaction between new Browns head coach Todd Monken and Shedeur Sanders, where Monken claimed he almost drafted Sanders last year. They debate whether Monken's comments are genuine or a strategic move to build rapport, especially given Monken's age (59) and this being his first NFL head coaching opportunity after a career as a coordinator. They examine Lamar Jackson's improved stats under Monken.
