Joe Flacco is QB2 for the Cleveland Browns + BEST 1v1 matchups to watch for in CLE vs. LA Rams

It's official... Joe Flacco is QB2 for the Cleveland Browns and will get the start over PJ Walker if DTR doesn't clear concussion protocol in time.

Kevin Stefanski made that announcement on Wednesday as the team practiced in sunny California.

PJ Walker turned the ball over twice in his limited time against Denver, and those crucial mistakes were too much to overcome, which is why Flacco is getting the nod now instead. Flacco was signed just a 2 weeks ago after the team lost Deshaun Watson for the season.

What are the best 1v1 matchups to look out for in the Browns vs. LA Rams game on Sunday? Aaron Donald vs. Joel Bitonio will be a fun one. So will JOK vs. Kyren Williams and Martin Emerson/Greg Newsome vs. Cooper Kupp/Puka Nacua.

Aditi Kinkhabwala joins the show to preview what the Browns need to do against the Rams to have a fighting chance.

Plus, Mayor Bibb joins the program to give some insight into how sports success impacts the city as a whole.

And lastly -- the Cleveland Cavaliers have a stretch of winnable games coming up at a crucial time on the schedule, which starts tonight against Portland.
