Daryl Ruiter joins Ken and Lima with a bolder Browns record prediction than anyone in the room, landing at 8-9 while breaking down why the national media is sleeping on a schedule full of winnable games and a roster that's quietly better than its reputation. The Shedeur video debate gets a Daryl Ruiter stamp of approval — he isn't calling it proof the kid starts, but he's adamant the Browns don't put anything out by accident, and ownership clearly wants Sanders to win the job even if Monken makes the final call. On the Cavs side, Daryl is pumping the brakes on the celebration, warning that the turnovers are still a problem and tonight's Game 6 is a must-close situation — because nobody wants to find out what happens if this series goes back to Detroit.
