What if Deshaun Watson doesn't come back? Are the Cleveland Browns STILL a playoff team?

The Cleveland Browns were sellers at the NFL's trade deadline... which is not something we saw coming.

Instead of bringing in a new QB2 like most fans wanted, Andrew Berry traded DPJ (Donovan Peoples-Jones) to the Detroit Lions for a 6th round pick.

That's it. That's all the moves the team made.

It was reported the Browns did make an offer to the Washington Commanders for Jacoby Brissett, but the offer was a 6th round pick & Washington wanted a 3rd for their backup QB.

So instead of bringing in a stopgap, the Browns will roll with either PJ Walker, DTR or Deshaun Watson at QB for the remainder of the season. Walker started 2 of the last 3 games, but DTR got the first spot start when Watson wasn't able to go against Baltimore.

Will Berry end up regretting not being more aggressive at the deadline?

PJ Walker may be 2-1 as the Browns starter, but the team has in spite of him, not because of him. But is Walker really that bad? We'll play a little game of "PJ vs. The Ghosts of Cleveland's Past" to see where PJ fits on the pantheon of Browns QBs.

The Arizona Cardinals run a lot of read option, which is a play the Browns have struggled defending this season. How can Jim Schwartz and company sure up its defensive assignments before Sunday?

Plus, Darren Urban, a long-time Cardinals beat writer, makes his UCSS debut to preview the game.

And lastly, a new segment called: "I Know, I Think, I Doubt" about the Browns that's sure to cause a stir.
