It's so refreshing to hear Bernie on this show....a week of crazy, ridiculous, emotional hot takes.....and now someone with wisdom comes in....Thank you B19!!!
Bernie is the best. I wish we’d hear this in the middle of the week. It could prevent a week of panic.
God rest his soul, but if Marty wouldn't have went to prevent defense in that last "drive" by Elway in the 86 title game, Browns would've went to the Super Bowl. 100%. Elway had done nothing the entire game. I know it's sour grapes but it still hurts, and I know it still hurts Bernie.
Yeah, still hurts me as well 😫
I was at that game and I have to agree.
Agree 💯
Prevent you from winning
Was at the game and it was unbelievable to witness
Kosar for coach!! Still ROCKING my custom Kosar jersey. Still my favorite player.
He is very football smart and is usually right about what he says.
Did he just say that even Jesus couldn’t do a better job as QB. That alone shows those hits to the head have taken their toll
Kosar, Kosar,Kosar.
Thank for giving us hope ,,once again.
Bernie is not a Watson Warrior, he is just stating the facts!
Bernie brings so much levity to this entire narrative, I love that dude. He should be a constant consultant within the organization.
If I was Kevin Stefanski....and I do mean this with all my heart - I would have Bernie on my staff as Executive Offensive Strategist. His mind for the game is beyond exceptional and he will talk straight. He would be the Consigliere to the Offensive staff and would direct them from behind the curtains. We need this unfiltered resource.
Thanks BERNIE FOR PROOFING MY POINT...NO QB could PLAY with this O-LINE!!!!
They miss Chubb and Hunt running the ball to keep the pass rush down.
Its hilarious how game 1 it was the o lines fault and game 6 its deshauns when the o line hasn't changed.. but thats media and ignorant fans for ya.
Loved how Bernie shut down Jay's narrative from the start! Good work. I love intelligent football converations!
Flacco got up off his couch, walked on the field, and did something differently. Dropping Dimes! 😮
Dropping picks you mean
@controversialcardchannel Wrong. At least it was fun to be a Browns fan when Flacco was the quarterback. Unlike loser Watson. 🏈
@@controversialcardchannel1600 yards and 13 TDs in 5 games. Only 1 game under 300 yards and none with less than 2 TDs. He did throw 8 INT vs 13 TDs
@@Rael_486 Blame the Coaching staff and this is the crazy thing.... why the Browns fan base got NOTHING to say about Podesta but want to blame the new QB in a new offensive scheme. Ya'll dumb.
@controversialcardchannel How can a guy that hasn't played in years didnot know the playbook or teammates perform better than Watson has in 3 years with all the babying and special treatment?
Bernie is awesome
It's funny how the conversation has morphed from the ineptitude of Stefanski as a head coach because of his play calling, time management, his having the most penalized team in the NFL, his decision to play an injured QB (Mayfield), and his and complete inability to make in game adjustments, to whether he is making a mistake by starting Watson. Only in Cleveland.
💯
Stefanski is a bad head coach
Cousins, Watson, and Mayfield had their worst passing seasons under Stefanski. He's nothing without a running game.
No baker made the choice to play with a busted shoulder instead of sitting out
I think Stefanski letting Watson fail to justify replacing him next year.If,you sit Watson the back lash will be fix the offensive line.The offensive line is not the only issue it's Watson , Stefanski,and coaching.They let Baker Mayfield fail playing hurt on purpose because they thought he was a hot head and wasn't the future at that point.Just my opinion.
Bernie got such a raw deal in Cleveland but I'm glad he won a superbowl it may have been with Dallas but he deserved it
That was modell and bellychik
The reason why they’re doing this is because Stefanski has always believed he could reinvent the wheel and win the AFC North a different way. He wants a prolific offense that will prove he’s an offensive guru from Penn. The man’s ego is much larger than you give it credit for.
In my opinion most plays should have a RB or even a FB to help blocking especially when your line is suspect.
Or a tight end
Bernie matters!!!
Finally the truth, the roster isn't really all that good. Thank you, Bernie.
Flacco cooked with this roster. problem on the roster is QB
Flaco also was a interception machine. Yes he was a qb that got us in. But but 2 pick sixes in the playoff game in Houston certainly didn't help. Even Flaco would have a very hard time with these slow poke Recviers and poor oline. And the 5 wide with no running back come on . Any defense is going to Come at you with that . Especially when you have the slowest recivers in the league. And the oline that can't block and pick up blitz and a penalty machine. Plus the head coach that dosnt want to coach the game he just wants to call plays. BK sees it
The Eagles have watched film on how Watson is being sacked and they're licking their chops. You can bet they've spent the whole week on the pass rush. Play a smash mouth 3 right end running game and throw screens to keep the defense honest. Must run the ball to stop the bleeding. Then Watson can get a little time to hit some WR. But absolutely have to establish the run.
September 10, 1989. Great fucking day!
Thanks again, Bernie 🙂
Awesome insight Bernie! Love your commentary. 19 Rocks!
Bernie should of been the browns coach
I wish Bernie could still play. Browns haven't had a QB who wanted to play in Cleveland like Kosar did. Watson is an absolute disgrace when compared to Kosar.
If only we could have a shot at, like, a Baker Mayfield or a Joe Flacco or sum.
Baker wanted to play in Cleveland
@@christopherwaits7852 Baker just wanted to be drafted #1. He was fine whoever drafted him as long as he went as the first pick in the draft. Kosar actually purposely gamed the NFL draft so he could be drafted by Cleveland as the first pick in the Supplemental draft. Cleveland held the #1 pick in the Supplemental draft that year. Now that's dedication!!!!
@@chrisc3118Baker just wanted to be chosen. He was projected to be a 3rd round pick before his redshirt senior season. He cried with joy when the Browns picked him. You think an arrogant person would cry.
th-cam.com/video/J5uIo8vHARg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=l0eXw8t7B5iajP7F
Yea baker looks great leading nfl with 13 tds only 2 ints
If Art Modell wasn’t a bad owner not moved the franchise, Bill Bilechik and Bernie Kosar will win SB for the city of Cleveland in the 90’s. We love Kosar forever and he will be remembered as the greatest legend qb for the Browns .
Billechek would keep Bernie ball was in his corner
I’ve watched a lot of Bernie over the years. This episode was the best I’ve seen. Bernie really laid it out and boy, he’s smart.
The offensive line is probably the biggest problem but who knows for sure,I think the fairest way to treat Watson is to bench him put Winston in and see what happens.If he doesn’t play well it doesn’t tell us much he’s not supposed to be as good as Watson but if he does it tells us a lot it’s Watson.
Bernie smarter than any of our coaches
G Bush you screwed me out of my Cool aid mafia flag from week one
What the hell is Bernie talking about!?!? Did he not see the film study Quincy Carter posted for the Washington game. Watson was missing open WRs and his check downs. Line gave him time to throw the ball
Every former nfl qb has also broke down watsons film and said he is just hod awful in every facit of the game. Not throwing to wide open guys. Over throwing. No awarness of the blitz. Abandoning clean pockets. Bernie is lieing to make the browns not look so bad.
Did he seriously say that no QB could do a better job 😂
Bernie has forgotten more about football than Q will ever learn in his lifetime. Obviously Bernie knows what
Watson is up against and understands the challenges facing the offense, which is multilayered. Just listen to him, he is dropping 35 years of personal experience.
Maybe he needs somebody on the sidelines to tell him what to do and what he needs to know like they were talking about what they did in Houston with him. After all it doesn't take a rocket scientist to sexually assault women. If you have the tools but not enough intelligence to know how to use the tools you need help to get it done.
@anthonypa8045 so you got a good ass OLine and none of your WRs' are dropping passes??? Right
The real issue is simply this... We didn't address losing our Best player... #24 Nick Chubb. We were supposed to get a top tier running back first and foremost. We beat teams having a killer run game. Opens the whole playbook when you don't just rely on the pass. Now we just don't have good running backs.. They are just another guys... It's sad that all is time Deshaun and Nick barely played together. That was the reality that had us, as a real contender...
Great show !!! 👏 ❤
I understand most of what Bernie said. I doubt Kevin would understand. Bernie! One the greatest of all Browns!
Chubb running a hitch is insane
Imma day late...but why doesn't "BERNIE BERNIE OH YEAH" havve some type of offensive roll in this organization....even Chuck Noll kept a seat within the Steelers organization after he retired....the curse of Modell lingers.
Luv Bernie!!!🤎🧡🤎🧡
love Bernies optimism. Jay is in panic mode. Let the season play out folks. Its gonna be what its gonna be.. learn from the mistakes and move on
Bernie’s right, as much as DWs poor play stands out as a problem, overall our offense has been bad! Complete lack of a running game, and an injured and struggling line unit, not many qbs could make it look good
Ok. Bernie Kosar seems to be another voice of reason and not playing to the crowd. He knows more whats going on than the average Joe out there.
Has there ever been any discussion of the quality of practices during the week? Are they rigorous enough? Are they at game speed?
Why did Flacco plug in and immediately look amazing? If it isn't Watson, why does Flacco make it work? Not only him, what about Brissett? He looked solid at least.
We still ended up Nowhere Stefanski is a choke artist play caller. Regardless who our QB is I don't believe Stefanski will get us to a superbowl calling plays
Idk brissett was like a slightly better pj walker
@@gunsarefun4618 better than Watson by a country mile!
@@Spacehog1981 yeah now he is for sure
Whenever a dual threat QB informs the team, not to call QB runs... the team is handcuffed.
Distraught Watson will never be what Cleveland signed him for. Play Jameis and move on after the season
I agree with Bernie but we don’t have Mack or Byner in the backfield. We cannot run the football and that was not addressed. Baltimore picked up King Henry and we went with Strong and Ford. That’s a problem.
Smart as hell. Kosar's the man. Voice of experience talking.
Jay really hates Deshaun Watson....
He has a lot of issues with young, rich, melanated individuals!
Jay Crawford feels the way about DW the same way I feel about KS who is the real problem.
Bernie is great. So smart. Witty.
God I love Bernie, he played before I was born, but the Browns need to get back to that. Its so soft in the NFL rn.
Bernie can say whatever he wants and il support him. He’s the browns living golden boy
He was genius of quarterback too bad we couldnt win or even go to super bowl
What's the difference between this year and last year. 3 guys that aren't here this year: Bill Callahan, Alex Van Pelt and Joe Flacco!!
Bernie is wrong about there's nothing to do...
If you look at any of the Docs over the summer Kevin has signals he tells The QB when to play it safe and when to take chances green light means go for a home run ...
Red light play it safe
He’s just the best
Bernie says it's not the QB yet all the fat guys I hear who never played in high school at the gym and work say it is I wonder who's right. 😅
Have Bernie find us a QB..
So is Bernie saying the new system is the thing causing the linemen to be confused? Love Calahan but these are professional linemen. You cant convince me they forgot everything he taught them. So the issue must be the new offense which may have different blocking rules. That is where Calahan would be so useful now. Short term seems they need to go back to what they were doing the last couple years and drop the Dorsey spread and run what they did last year. Yes seems it was stupid to get rid of last year's offense. That decision seems to be the catalyst of all this.
And an unrelated question. Why when DW rolls out, do they always design it roll left?
Thank You So Much Bernie Kevin Stafanski Refused To Run The Goddam Ball
Bernie is the best!!!!
It's not Blake's Fault It's not DeShaun's Fault It's not DeShaun's Fault It's not just on Deshaun It's on all of us 😮😅😅😅❤
I wish Bernie was the coach
That's not Bernie Kosar. That is Spock's father. Better listen to him.
YES!!!! IT'S BECAUSE WE DON'T CALLAHAN!!!!! HELLO 👋🏽 CALLAHAN!! CALLAHAN!!!
Bernie knows. That simple.
You know what I do remember in the drive Bernie was on the sidelines we were winning John elway went 98 yards against number one pass defense that folks was I year to win a Superbowl but there again we folded on defense again my god
These corners we have now ok they get beat a lot when we had Dixon and Minefield you knew better not throw there now we rip in all the times that's the difference in a number one defense this team does not have a number one defense even last year or so good bs they give up to many big plays ok not a number one ok
I still wonder if they are not purposely making bad game plans to get Watson out somehow.
1 thing I have realized cheering for this team since the 80's is they are a terrible franchise with the most tolerant fans ever.
Bench Watson plzzzzz, Myles, the chief and bottino deserve to win…..let’s go browns! Kosar for coach! Btw im a Steelers fan born and raised but cheer on the browns as i live in OH now.
Watson has settled more sexail assault lawsuits 24 than touchdowns 19 since joining the Browns.
Bull, with all due respect, you continue to say 97 Yankees when the last time we won an elimination game was 97 World Series Game 6 against the Marlins.
Although that Yankees series was magical and I remember it vividly. Sandy Alomar with a game tying HR in Game 4
I agree with with BK. He knows. BK would be a great oc qb coach.
Watson had SIXTEEN plays last week with zero pressure where he abandoned a clean pocket or threw into double coverage with clearly open receivers past the sticks, or throws where he missed by a mile
Stefanski didn't make him play in preseason and simply can't motivate Men
@bbmartin7055 yes, AND Watson has been horrible
Im Pro Bernie!!!!!!......
I'm calling for a browns win on sunday. 24-23
Is Chubb playing. Come on please, I need something to look forward to here geez ??
Maybe next game
Hope your well Bernie Youngstown baby repping ! #330
I would absolutely love to say that Kosar at 60 years old could throw a better ball than Watson.
I would love to, but if you add his recent health problems on top of his age, he unfortunately can't go out there and throw a football in official NFL action at his current state. I really wish he could, though.
Bernie Kosar is 60 years old. It is absolutely ridiculous to contemplate him going out on the football field to compete again at his age. No doubt, if he were to do so, he would immediately incur a serious, serious, injury, far, far, worse than he has already sustained. Remember Bernie as he was. Don’t fantasize about Bernie as he now is.
I don't believe they have the right masseuse for DeShaun Watson
They don’t have masseuses the Texans do
What game was everyone watching Kevin tried to run the ball in the first quarter we sucked ,then we have to get away from it because we get behind and if you can’t run and your behind you have to throw.
Bernie is to good to be sitting with all these chumps!
I LOVE BERNIE
It's a mistake, to be sure, but football reasons don't need to be factored in at all.
It’s not his call … You think he wants to lose?
Haslam and Berry won’t let him because they’re meddling idiots who can’t admit they’re wrong.
Wake up.
Ive been a Browns fan since I was 10. Im 55 now and I just cannot watch another game until Watson is gone! It hurts to say it but I am done ruining my Sundays. I will always be a fan but I am taking a much needed break. GO BROWNS
Please stay away 🙏 😂😂😂
Browns fans aren't you sick and tired of being embarrassed by the worst owners in professional sports Jimmy and d haslam
just show Jed Wills the door already also....
Just looked at season stats for Bernie his look like D4 stats just saying number don’t lie
Yea it's crazy that baker has the best cleveland stats since the 60s. Bakers stats here are nice.
The whole team looks bad I agree with that. But we got to stop acting like the reason the team is playing bad is the reason Watson looks bad. We're not the worst line in the league. Look it up. There's about 5 teams with worst lines and they're QBs don't look this bad. Everyone wants to talk about the play calling but nobody wants to talk about all the misreads, the missed throws, the running out of clean pockets. As bad as everyone says the playcalling is, I see wide open targets he's just not hitting or seeing 🤷
Well of course your owner Jimmy Haslem is a reflection of you, he a ruthless, cunning, businessman doesn't take responsibility for his actions. All of sudden you expect him to act like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez a "bleeding heart woke liberal that listen to working man of America". "No F@*king Way", he going bend you over and screw like he has done all his life.
Businessmen are Sociopaths, they are individuals not leaders. That why half the NFL owners are not good owners. Case in point owner Woody Johnson of the New York Jets.
I believe in DW4....he is right on the cusp of returning to greatness!!
Do NOT bench Watson. If Kevin doesn't want him to play anymore, he can just run him up the middle like he did in game one last year and ruin his throwing shoulder.
That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. You browns fans don't deserve a elite quarterback
Jay sit there and blame watson for everything geesh lol.. u sad g.. I bet he blame watson for his problems in life lol
Watson is statistically the worst qb in the nfl. He ranks dead last in almost every stat. Worst 5 starts by any qb since 1970!!!!
@@anthonypa8045 by far....
Dj whoodat is way out of touch with reality. Must be a Walz Voter 🤦
I get it Watson sucks but we gotta stop excusing everybody else. This whole offense sucks from the coordinator to all 11 players man. I can see if Cooper caught everything or if our OL is dominant but it's not. Everybody sucks!!!!!
Is are running game producing need pass on 1st down more jeez we so predictable it’s stupid
start a trend, smashmouth
Who dresses G Bush
Why u worried
Kozar was trash, who is he to criticize anyone. No mobility, threw it out of bounds on 3rd and long more than any QB in history.
4️⃣🆙🏹
We beating the eagles this week
Deshaun will start all 17 games
Lost a lot of respect for Bernie on this one. He likes and respects DePodesta huh? Depodesta got here in 2016 and from then, up to now, his analytics philosophy has made the Browns have the worst or nearly the worst overall record in the league during that time period. He is a massive failure!
Yeah mad respect for DePodesta. 🤦♂️Unbelievable. There must be something in the water supply up in Cleveland. The water authority must put illogical supplements in the water supply.
Don’t get me wrong, I love Bernie. He is a treasure. His breakdown of the offense was brilliant.
He lost me though when he said he respected DePodesta. That was beyond the pale. I respect a successful guy who has done a lot to help my team. DePodesta has been a failure and ruined this team for many years into the future.
Look, this football you forget that in 2016 the Chicago Bears brought in head coach Matt Nagy to upgrade the offensive, that year starting quarterback Mitchell Trubisky went to the pro-bowl. The next year they had a string of injuries and it all fell apart. That's football, if you have any doubt look at the Eagles they where a Super Bowl team and now two years latter at times they look very average.
@@HellBot-gi5si Rambling nonsense and you didn’t even address the subject. Maybe you should take a class in reading comprehension.
I said that it makes no sense for Bernie to praise DePodesta when he is the guy who arrived n 2016 to run the show for the Browns and the Browns have had one of if not thee worst record in the league during his time running the show. I’m not talking about one year they were good and the next year bad. He has been failing for 8 years except for one year with Baker and last year when they got extremely lucky when old Joe Flacco saved them. Also the only reason the Browns had a good record last year is because they were playing a schedule ranked 26th in the league and one that was miraculously saved by Flacco who had been sitting on the sofa all year .
DePodesta also helped manage the deal for Watson which is the worst deal in history and one which will hurt this franchise for many years to come. You don’t admire or respect a guy who has ruined your team.
@@aldrob108 So what are you saying? What now are you are giving up? You are no longer a Browns fan is that what you are implying?
@@HellBot-gi5si What I’m saying is Browns fans need to stop being suckers, allowing mediocrity or in this case failure and allowing the team’s executives a pass.
Brown’s fans need to call out DePodesta, Andrew Berry and demand the owner fire them.
Anybody, in ANY other job, who has performed as poorly as DePodesta and Andrew Berry have, would have been fired long ago. Right? It’s time Browns fans start chanting at gams for them to be fired and picketing out in the parking lot demanding the firing of the executives.
We fans, year after year, keep giving them our hearts, our loyalty and our money and they keep giving us failure. It’s time Browns fans got a backbone and DEMANDED better, take a stand and tell the owner and the executives that we aren’t going to take it anymore. If they don’t respond to our demands, boycott the team.
Decades of failure is enough. Tell them, do better or we’re hitting the road. It’s the only thing they will understand. Enough is enough.
Guess which franchise has the worst record in the league the last FIFTY YEARS. Go ahead, take a wild guess. www.statmuse.com/nfl/ask/which-nfl-is-the-worst-team-in-the-last-50-years
@@aldrob108 Look, the problem isn't Paul DePodesta or Andrew Berry. It's the owner Jimmy Haslem. He had Kyle Shanahan and Mike McDaniel as his coaches at one time. Then Jimmy Haslem decided to draft Johnny Manziel that when Kyle Shanahan quit on the spot. Did you know that at one point Mike McDaniel taught your receiver to be totally unstoppable and Jimmy Haslem threw it all away. Why because he thinks he knows more than NFL executives.
Bullshit!!!! Bernie!!! J-Moe! Would do better!!!!
Waaaay too many Watson defenders in the comment section. He looks like crap regardless of the line playing like dookie. And Dd any of y'all actually think it's up to Stefanski whether the team benches Watson or not? If he benches him without consulting Haslam or Barry then he'd get in big trouble. He needs ownership and the GM to be on his side if he benches Watson.
U just a dummy
He not benching him he said so a few days ago in a press conference
Watson is shelled shocked 27 sacks 64 pressures in 5 games horrible and who is tht on plus he's playing like crap if you know anything about football without ballers in the trenches no qb would flourish with this offense
