Stigatz here. I have a podcast empire that I have brought here to iHeart, and I'm also hosting a daily live radio show from 3 to 5 p.m. Eastern called Stigatz and Company Live, which is available in podcast form right when the show finishes every single day. You can expect a lot of laughter, great guests, a ton of calls, and a lot of fun. Listen to Stugatz & Company Live and our original podcast, Stugatz & Company and God Bless Football. And you can check all of those out on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
This show contains information subject to, but not limited to, personal takes, rumors, not-so-accurate stats, and plenty more. What's up, man? This your boy, Nal Green, from the Broken Play Podcast. Look, it's the end of the season. The playoffs are here. But guess what? It ain't the end of your season. You can always tune in with Broken Play Podcast with Nal Green on the Black Effect Podcast Network. Not a team who ain't going to the playoffs. The Chiefs. It's time to rebuild. Listen to Broken Play with Nav Green from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
All right, joining us now. Back to back. On Nightcap Radio Road. Another. The best. Okay, joining us now here on Nightcap Radio, bro. My guy. Here he is, number 21 from the Cleveland Browns, Denzel Ward. Denzel, how you doing, bro? I'm good, man. Appreciate being here, man. Thanks for having me. Another unbelievable season. But at some point in time, you're going to get tired of having these unbelievable seasons individually and want to have an unbelievable season team-wide. Obviously, new coach coming in. You're probably going to have a new D.C.
Oh, don't tell me that.
Well, considering some of the things that Todd said about, yeah, it ain't looking good. I'm just saying from the outside, it ain't looking good. What do you guys need to do? to make sure, like, Miles is going to win defensive player of the year unanimously. You are a top two, three corner. So the individual success that you've enjoyed and that Miles have enjoyed, but at some point in time, you play a team sport. This ain't golf. This ain't tennis. And so the individuality is fine and good. And we'll talk about that once it comes time to Hall of Fame. But right now, I want to have some team success. I'm tired of getting my eyes beat in, and we lose it. But, man, hell of a game, Denzel.
Hell of a game after the game. Yeah, I think that's the biggest thing. That's probably why the decisions were made, how they were made with bringing Tom Munkin in, an offensive-minded coach. And we struggled. To be real, we struggled on offense. We struggled on offense and wasn't able to put points on the board and, you know, wasn't playing that complimentary football. So once we could do that and hopefully Coach Munkin come in and change the offensive – organization around, I think we're going to do well. We've got to continue to stay up there for the defense and make plays and be that defensive player of the year and top corner in the league, and we're going to make it happen.
Listen, defensively, y'all are going to be fine. It doesn't matter. Offensively, we know it needs work. There's some things, there's some pieces that are missing to that puzzle. Obviously, the first thing that needs to be situated, you need to figure out who's going to be quarterback number one and then build from there and then go around that. Brother Fanning, what's Brother Fanning's first name? Harold. Boy, he is the real deal. That's one piece. Now, continue to add pieces to the puzzle so offensively... I need some receivers. I ain't gonna hold you.
What?
They need some receivers. Okay, I'm going to let that go. I'm going to let you have that. He know he there every day. Listen, defensively, you can have the goddamn Pope coaching the defense. Y'all going to be right. Oprah can come coach the goddamn defense. Y'all going to be okay based on the personnel that you do have.
What are the highlights of Denzel Ward's NFL career?
If you put your GM cap on, hypothetically speaking, what changes would you make to your Cleveland Browns so you guys could have some success and get over the hump and not only compete in the AFC North in that division, but in the NFL in general in the whole?
