Video summary

In this ambitious challenge to rebuild the Cleveland Browns within a single season, the narrator accepts a difficult mandate to win a Super Bowl by operating on "Hard" trade difficulty and simulating only key game moments. The initial roster construction begins with veteran quarterbacks Deshaun Watson and Baker Mayfield, quickly evolving into an aggressive trading strategy that brings in elite wide receiver Tyreek Hill before swapping Jerry Jeudy for AJ Brown. While the team assembles a formidable defense anchored by Micah Parsons, Denzel Ward, and Jared Verse, the first attempt falters in the AFC Championship against the 15-2 Los Angeles Chargers due to significant offensive struggles and dropped passes. Undeterred, the narrator pivots to a second strategy focused on building around a monster defensive unit by acquiring Chris Jones and Aidan Hutchinson, while securing quarterback Jackson Dart and wide receiver Malik Neighbors through trades. The narrative of this rebuild is defined by resilience and dramatic comebacks, particularly in the playoff run following the initial setback. After facing an early deficit against the Buffalo Bills in the divisional round, the Browns' upgraded defense forces critical turnovers and sacks Josh Allen to shift momentum, though the offense initially struggles with missed opportunities on fourth downs. The story culminates in a triumphant comeback victory over the Bills in the Wild Card round, followed by a Divisional win against the Cincinnati Bengals that sets up a high-stakes AFC Championship matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. In this decisive game, significant defensive stops combined with clutch plays from Jackson Dart and Malik Neighbors secure a 17-7 victory, propelling the Browns to their first Super Bowl appearance of the season against the Seattle Seahawks. The Super Bowl itself presents a grueling test for the Browns, who trail at various points despite outstanding performances from their star-studded defense featuring Chris Jones, Jared Verse, Mason Graham, and Aidan Hutchinson. Rookie sensations like Casey Conception and Quinn Sean Judkins contribute to the effort with clutch plays that extend leads, while key moments such as sacks by Chris Jones and a crucial two-point conversion tie the game at 17-17 before Cleveland takes control. The video concludes with the Cleveland Browns defeating the Seattle Seahawks 31-20 to claim their first Super Bowl title in one season, earning Chris Jones the Super Bowl MVP award and head coach Sloppy Seconds the Coach of the Year honor. Ultimately, the narrator reflects on the success of this "one-hit wonder" roster, acknowledging that while the aggressive trading strategy required a high financial cost and left the team without future assets, the achievement validates the approach. The journey from assembling an elite defense to overcoming offensive hurdles and securing a historic championship demonstrates that even with limited resources and a difficult rebuild path, it is possible to construct a winning team in a single season. This final summary encapsulates the highs of a dramatic playoff run and the ultimate triumph of a strategy built on bold moves and exceptional defensive play, proving that the Browns can rise from the ashes to claim glory despite the inevitable financial blowback.

It feels like the Cleveland Browns have been in a perpetual rebuild from the quarterback carousel for decades to trading away their franchise edge rusher Miles Garrett and zero Super Bowls to show for it. But that changes today. I have one season as the GM of the Browns to win a championship. The rules are very simple. One season, Super Bowl or reset from the start. Rule two will be playing with trade difficulty on hard. And rule three, I can only play the key moments of each game. Let's get started. You got to love that in Cleveland's top five players, two of them aren't even wearing a Browns jersey. If we have to win a Super Bowl this season, the most obvious issue is our quarterback room. If I gave [ __ ] Sanders 5 years, maybe he'd get good, but I don't have 5 years. And Massage Watson is literally the same overall. 69 overall normal dev. And I'm going to be honest, free agency is low-key stacked with some really good players. Bobby Wagner, Tyreek Hill, Harrison Smith, but the best quarterback option here is Jimmy Garopppolo, Desmond Ritter, Mike White. We're going to have to trade for a quarterback. We do have a lot of defensive firepower on this team. Denzel Ward would be worth a lot in a trade. We did just trade for Jared Verse, but he is quite valuable. Carson Schwestinger won defensive rookie of the year. He would net us something, but if we're going to win a Super Bowl, we'll probably need these guys. Luckily for us, the Miles Garrett trade gives us an extra first round pick to trade. Deshaawn Watson has a no trade clause, so we can't trade him even if we wanted to. Maybe Shadur Sanders in a first round pick. I shot for the stars on a guy like Caleb Williams got instantly declined. Although we're about halfway there, even on hard difficulty. So absolute superstars like Josh Allen are probably off the table without selling out everything we've got for him. What if we brought Baker back to Cleveland? He's older. He's superstar. He's 83 overall. I feel like this might be possible. I might have overpaid. Baker Mayfield is coming back to Cleveland for Shador Sanders and a first round pick. It's like we're playing Madden 20 all over again. Baker is the perfect guy. His stats are awesome. He gets abilities cuz he's superstar. And because he's 31, he's just not that expensive. We're going to go with inside dead eyee for elite accuracy inside the numbers. and fearless. A reduced chance to be impacted by throw penalties. Now that we got the most important position out of the way, what else is important? We've got a rookie left tackle, Spencer Feno. We've got a young rookie wide receiver, Casey Conception. Conpsion. I don't know. Both of these guys would probably net us a good trade hopefully for an older guy that can compete right now. Although, I don't really want to mess with the O line. We don't have any depth on this O line. I think I want to keep Harold Fannon. I love Harold Fannon. I think he's an awesome tight end. By the end of the season, he could be an 85, 86 overall. I do think we need a star wide receiver though. Jerry Judy hasn't quite panned out the way Cleveland hoped. 91 speed, 92 excel, 81 overall. If I packaged up Judy and a couple fourth rounders, I wonder if we could get a better wide receiver. But before we trade anything, we got to see if we can get Tyreek Hill. He still is not on a team, which is so crazy to me. Let's talk to him. A one-year deal is all we need. We've only got a year. One year, 8 mil, 5 mil bonus. That felt kind of low, but he likes it. That's it. That's all it took to send Tyreek Hill to Cleveland. He was just in Miami. Ooh, I only have 4 mil in cap space, though. Cap space might be our biggest issue. Oh my god. You know what's standing between us and this entire rebuild is literally Deshaawn Watson. Deshaawn Watson is on an $133 million contract. Remember when Cleveland gave Houston three first round picks for Deshaawn Watson? That may go down as the worst trade in NFL history. In fact, it kind of has to. It's really hard to trade worse than that. I don't think there's anything I can do about this. Can I release him? If I release him, I will freeze $0 in cap and I will incur a penalty of $41 million. Deshun Watson has us by the balls. No pun intended. There's not really a pun there. Deshawn Watson. There's a joke in there. Somebody smarter than me come up with it. Well, we're already in a much better spot with Baker at quarterback and Tyreek Hill as our wide receiver one alongside Jerry Judy, Casey Conception, and then we've got Quinn Sean Judkins and Dylan Samson as our running backs. I like both of those guys. Judkins is more of a developing future running back, but even now he's pretty darn good. 82 overall star. Normally, I'd like to get another running back, but since salary cap space is so tight, I think we're just going to rock Quinton Judkins. That leads us to defense where I really don't hate this roster at all. One rookie that I really like is Emanuel McNeel Warren out of Toledo. I could trade Ronnie Hickman. Let McNeel Warren be the starter and try to add something to this team. Our Dline's already good. Two superstars, Graham and Jared Verse. Denzel Ward's one of the best corners in this game. Tyson Campbell's a nice pickup from the Jaguars. Our third string corner is really bad. I may look into free agency to make our secondary a little bit better here. We just have so little to work with. I wonder if we could get a guy like Harrison Smith and then move one of our safeties to our depth corner. Our depth corner is kind of going to be a slot anyway. It could work. Okay. Is there any way that I can convince Harrison Smith to sign with the Cleveland Browns for like no money? This is like a laughably offensive offer for a guy like Harrison Smith, but I'm gonna offer him 2 mil 500k signing bonus. This is what like a UDFA kicker is going to get. That's not true. This is more than that, but okay. He told me to literally get [ __ ] He said that's so offensive and um we can't negotiate with him anymore. My bad. That's my bad. Harrison Marshon Latimore is available. Okay. Latimore is 86% interested on a 2-year $8 million deal. I'm not entirely sure how I can raise this bonus if I don't have any money to raise it with, but apparently we just signed Marshian Latimore. I won't pretend to know how that occurred. I've gotund I've got $190,000 in cap. I've got a tech engineer salary and cap space for a National Football League team. And I can't trade Deshawn Watson. This is way harder than I expected. I already feel really good about the team though. So Baker, Tyreek Hill, Jared Verse, Graham, Denzel War. Now Marshall Latimore joins the Cleveland Browns. I got to find a way to free up some cap space. Now the good thing about Jared Verse, Jared Verse has no cap space at all cuz he's so young. His cap hits 2-0. I mean, that's nothing. Grant Delpit is really expensive. Jerry Judy's really expensive. Genuinely insane to scroll all the way down your roster to your 69 overall quarterback and there's a 41 mil capit. That's so crazy. Okay, let's field some offers. This is a bizarre trade, but Delpit, Jerry Judy, and a first round pick that we got from the Rams for Miles Garrett could get Bucky Irving, Tyler Smith, Aaron Brewer. Pretty much any offensive lineman's going to be a no. Zack Baughn with a relatively low cap hit. I just don't think a linebacker is what's going to turn the tide for us. AJ Terrell, that's kind of a crazy capit's kind of thick. I don't know if I can even accept that. Brian Burns would be crazy to put with Jared Verse. Make an insane Dline, but I can't afford that. JC Horn is a 87 overall. They hooked him up. Patriots give me AJ Brown. Should get AJ Brown and Tyreek Hill. That could work. I actually kind of want to do this. We'll get a fifth and a seventh back to maybe trade for something else. Let me see if it lets me. Oh my god. Okay, so I got like $120,000 back in cap. Oh no, I got 650k now. Damn. Honestly, we have a lot of firepower on offense. Tyreek Hill is really good because he's very fast, but he doesn't have abilities and abilities make your players so much better. AJ Brown is a superstar. So, if we're going to go up and go for a big green catch, AJ Brown's the guy. I'm going to give him short out elite gold tier quick jump. That's kind of cool. And finally, I'm going to give him No, I'm going to give him bruiser. Bruiser quick jump. and surely am. AJ Brown left Philly for New England and then we sent him to Cleveland. Brutal. Although I don't know why Madden wants him at number 87. He's got to have one or 11. Ooh, neither are available. How about AJ Brown in number three? I like it better than 87. So with Grant Delpik going on this defense, I'm going to move McNeel Warren to strong safety. I don't know why the rookies don't have like a face scan on their player profile cuz I can see him here. a minor reduction to our safety output for a major upgrade to our wide receiver room. We have I mean we got really good wide receivers on this team. Now take a look at the news center. Home away from home. Browns leave no question as who they see as a key offensive talent after extending wide receiver AJ Brown to an extending. How about trading? I guess maybe we extended him after. I don't know. AJ Brown is a Brown. AJ Brown is a Brown. Well, we can't lose now. As much as I'd love to make another big move to this roster, there not that much we can do. 650k in cap, maybe it's possible. You know what's ironic about getting Tyreek? As much as I'd like to added Tyreek, there's actually a huge cap hit. And I still have good draft picks. Dude, three second round picks. A first, a third, and Tyreek Hill. I literally picked up Tyreek to just ship him out. What kind of absolute monster could we get for this? Oh, dude. You We're going to get somebody insane for this. The Bills would give up James Cook and a bunch of picks. Quinn Miners, Trey McBride. He's a hard 99 already. That would be kind of crazy. I feel like our offense is going to work. I think we need defense. Donsel, CD Lamb, Devont Smith, Fred Warner. If we got Fred Warner, we could move Carson Schwessinger to outside linebacker. That's insane. I kind of really like that. Josh Hines Allen though, the athletic Josh Allen. This is kind of just like a pick swamp. They're going to give me back two firsts, a second, and two/3s. How is this a fair trade, dude? I got trade settings on hard. I kind of want that. No, but Fred Micah, shut the [ __ ] up. You wouldn't give me Micah. Well, maybe you would. This is kind of the Miles Gare trade. So, the Packers would get Tyreek two first, 3 seconds, and the Packers would give me a second and a third in Micah. If this is possible, I have to take this sack specialist secured. Dude, what? I just want you guys to see that trade difficulty is on hard cuz that feels insane, right? I guess it's a lot of picks, but so I signed Tyreek Hill to trade him, which is certainly a move of all time, but now we have Mike Parson. We have almost no picks left. I've traded almost every first and second round pick we have. We got a second back from Green Bay. I think the only thing I can do now, now that I dropped Tyreek Hill, I kind of still want a speed demon wide receiver. And I've got picks Tilman and two second round picks would get me the exact guy I'm thinking of, Jameson Williams of the Detroit Lions. He's younger. He's I actually think he might be faster than Tyreek in this game. I know J Mo is super fast. That's the exact trait I was looking for. Holy [ __ ] Jamo is so fast. Jam Mo has he might he's got to be the fastest wide receiver in the game, right? Jam has 98 speed, 96 XL. Damn, he's fast. I'm going to put him in my slot wide receiver. See if we can Dude, if he could get superstar by the playoffs, that'd be crazy. ALL RIGHT, GENTLEMEN. ONE YEAR, one year to win a Cleveland Browns Super Bowl. And this is the team we've assembled. We brought Baker Mayfield back to Cleveland. We poached AJ Brown after he just got traded. Two second round picks got us Jameson Williams and we hang on to our rookie Casey Conpsian out of Texas A&M. Our offensive line is unchanged and will retain tight end Harold Fannon. On defense, our linebackers are the same with Schwessinger, Cororamoa, and Quincy Williams. Grant Delpit was a little too expensive, so he had to go in a massive trade, moving our rookie Emanuel McNeel Warren to our strong safety position. Marshon Latimore was sitting on the couch, so we picked him up in free agency. And after trading every pick in human existence in true Browns fashion, we were able to get Micah Par. I cannot believe that on hard trade difficulty, you could even trade for him. Micah Parsons is a Cleveland Brown. Admittedly though, our depth safety options are really bad. So, my final move is I'm going to make an offer on 35year-old Jimmy Ward. Let's have a chat. Jimmy, beautiful. He's signed. Now, the next big question is team schemes. If you play Madden franchise, you know that the offensive defensive playbook you use are absurdly important for simulation. Like way too important, really stupid. What can we expect out of EA? They're a small indie company with only a few developers. But for this challenge to feel true, I want to use Cleveland offense and Cleveland defense. I don't think they're very good, but we did just kind of assemble the Avengers, so I like our odds. Brown schedule's not that bad either. We start out with Jaguars, Bucks, Panthers, Steelers, Jets. Ravens could be tough. Facing them twice a year is kind of a bummer. Facing the Bengals twice a year is kind of a bummer. But the rest of this schedule's kind of nice. You got to love the news center. New quarterback, new playbook. New wide receiver, new playbook. Same thing for JO. With Cleveland's entire future in the draft sold out to other teams and clinging on to only a few hundred,000 of cap space, it proved to be the right decision. Baker Mayfield, Micah Parsons, and AJ Brown dominated in the regular season, leading the Cleveland Browns to a 13 and4 record and securing them a spot in the wild card. Turns out Cleveland's offensive playbook's actually pretty good. Baker almost threw for 5,000 yards, but only 24 touchdowns and seven receptions. That's I've never seen anything like that. That is so weird. Quinn Sean Judkins put up 1,15. That's a banger season for him. Jame Williams. Wow. I mean, I knew putting him at slot would be good, but I've never really had wide receivers that fast. That's crazy. He was averaging 100 yards a game, 12 touchdowns, and 1,700 yards. AJ Brown put up another 1,400. Harold Fannon tacked in 736. Holy [ __ ] Micah Parsons. Micah Parsons had 20 and a half sacks. Cherver had 12. Mason Graham had 8 and a half. Oh my god, this team's insane. Denzel Ward had three interceptions. One thing you'll notice in Madden 27, every quarterback is like, "God, like how often do you really see a quarterback get more than 4,000 passing yards?" In Madden 27, it's all of them. Justin Herbert threw for 5,500. That's the MVP. They also have the buy in the AFC. So, if we go on a playoff run, we're going to have to run into this monster Chargers team. So, there's Baker second in the league in passing yards. Bonix, Matt Stafford, Herz, Burough, Tyler Shuck, Dak, Sam Darn. Literally, it's like every single quarterback throws for more than 4,000 yards to a tongue of Aloa on the Falcons threw for 4,0001 yards and more touchdowns than Baker. I'm pissed. Hey, Shadur did pretty good. Shadur on Tampa Bay had 3,900 yards, 19 touchdowns, 13. Not bad, Shadur. So, here's your standings at top the AFC North, but the Chargers are 15-2. We got a lot of guys in these top league leaders. And ironically, our wild card playoff game is against the Cincinnati Bengals who are 9 and8. There's a chance of snow. We've got the overall advantage. Let's have a good one. Huntington Bank Field Wildcard playoffs. A chance of snow. I kind of forgot they got dynamic weather in Madden 27. You don't get it very often, but if snow comes down, this game might change. Zack Taylor. They're only 9 and eight, but they're on a fivegame winning streak. I know Joe Bros be tough. There's Brown [ __ ] It's a German pronunciation. You wouldn't understand. 13-4 record this season. Get to take out a rival. Now, we can only play the moments, but good news on our first moment as we're getting ready to get in the end zone. Dude, Jet touch passes if they go to Jameson Williams, which this one does are going to be really good. By the way, that looks so natural. That's like, you know, trading all these players, but Baker Mayfield as a Cleveland Brown. Nothing wrong with that. Okay, so we're going to go motion jet touch pass to Jameson Williams, the fastest guy on the field at any given time. We'll get a first down. Nice work. Looks like Cleveland punched that touchdown in for us. So now we get seven to zero. Feel like on third and six. I got to look downfield. AJ Brown gets single coverage. He does. Oh, he torched him. Green bean. He fried him over there. RED ZONE ALERT, GUYS. Are we a motion jet sweep merchant team? I never get wide receivers this fast. I feel like I just want to abuse it. That's crazy. Let's get a Naruto running. Yo, they should put Joselli in where he like impregnates the turf. They should put that in the game. Apparently, we went for two and didn't get it or missed the BAT. That's one thing I didn't think about. I didn't do a lot of like research on a kicker. Not that I feel like I needed to. AJ Brown got it anyway. Okay, wild card playoff to a really good start. Let's keep sending motions. Keep them on their toes. He ran a lot of motion today and it's worked well. That's a tight window. I don't know about that. Caught it. Is that Harrison Smith? Who's that? Who's that safety back there? Who's 22? I'm handing this off to Quinchan Judkins after Harrison Smith denied my offer. I think he went to Cincinnati. I think that's what I'm looking at right there. >> Running out of clock here. Let's make a big play. Check down into Royer. Be the first one to tell you. I got no idea who that is. J Mo. Use those wheels. SINGLE COVERAGE ON JAM MO. Oh my god. We're catching yellows. We're catching yellows LIKE IT'S NOBODY'S BUSINESS. And this could seal the game. Fourth and goal. Just Joe Burrow. It's It's got to be Swiss. Good defense. I want to say just Joe Burrow. They're not running it on four. Oh, they scored anyway. So, they turned the ball over there, but they got it back and scored anyway. It is 14 to 20. This game is not over. Third and nine. Baker. Quiet him down. Baker, tell everybody to chill out. Baker, let's go to Quinn Sean Judkins. Oh my god, what an animal. I mean, I'm going to be honest. We should play this smart. We could chew a lot of clock here and take a two-possession lead with a field goal. I'm not doing anything aggressive. Let's watch. I was going to say, let's watch for our blocks. There weren't any on that, but we can take another three minutes in this game. Let's go with a counter out of Quinchan. Get a pull block out of Royer. Pull block out of our right guard. Elgen Jenkins. Oh, those are never mind. They were for a second good blocks. Well, Cincinnati does have Dexter Lawrence now. They've actually got a really good defensive line. Cincinnati's Dline is nasty. by third and 12. They're going to burn a timeout. We're going to go one more handoff. This one is a motion handoff to Jameson Williams. Maybe I could have bounced that outside, but this is exactly what I wanted. 25 yd field goals for Smith. Who is this kicker? Schmidt. Szyt. I got to brush up on my kicker ball knowledge. But it gives us a two possession lead. Fourth and five. Strong lead here, 23 to 14. Okay, I got to go inside the mind of a Micah Parsons of number 95, Micah Parsons. WELL, HOW ARE YOU NOT GOING TO [ __ ] block Michael Parsons? Wait, what? No blocker. The true Joe Burrow experience. That's crazy. How do you not put somebody on Micah Parsons? had a chance to be a close game, but 26 of 14, we make it out of the wild card on our first season. After a big win against the Bengals and steamrolling the Texans in the divisional, it was clear what our true test was going to be. As fate would have it, you guys, this Chargers team is our AFC Championship opponent. I'm not used to the Chargers being this good, but when a team is 15-2, you know they're doing something, right? They take down the Bills. Amari and Hampton at 130 yards and two touchdowns. Taking a look at the matchup, our top three are Michael Parsons, Denzel Ward, and Jared Verse. Their top three are Derwin James, Justin Herbert, and Chad Makanki. Makanki started the season as an 83 overall, and he's up to a 90. Our lineup has certainly got better, too, though. Not only did players progress, but we've also got some big morale boosts like Baker's an 85, but he's up to an 89. Judkins is up to a 91. That's crazy. I'm glad we didn't go for a running back. And defensively, everybody's just feeling it right now. We're feeling good. A lot of plus twos, a plus three on Schwessinger. I have a feeling this will be our toughest matchup. Not only a tough matchup in the AFC Championship against the Chargers, but it's in Sofi Stadium. We do not get the benefit of home field advantage. Damn. Wait, the AFC Championship gets a home site or is the AFC Championship just held in Sofi. Wait, that's so I thought the AFC and NFC Championships were neutral sights. No, I'm actually a dumbass. The AFC and NFC Championships have homefield advantage. I've been playing too much college football. Regardless, our first moment. No, I saw first and goal. I thought that meant first and goal for us. It's first and goal for the Chargers. And I'm not going in the mind of a Michael Parsons. I'm going to let him wreak havoc on his own. You just know they're going to run the ball a lot with that Amari Hampton statline we saw before, especially with Harbaugh back there. Latimore is in. Hickman's in. Schwessinger. Another handoff. Maybe they're going to motion a tight end to the right. It is another handoff. SCHWESSINGER. I GOT HIM. I got him. I didn't think we were going to get him. Dude, going low is the meta. Are they going to pass this? Jimmy Ward is in our latest our final pickup. Mand up on Hampton who's blocking. And why are you so open? Jeremiah Wu Coramo. Usually a pretty good coverage linebacker got fried right there. And they've got 14. Our first offensive moment. The Chargers have 14. That is not We have to score here. We have to score on this possession. Okay, that's man coverage on Quinn Sean. That's Bobby Wagner. So, free agent Bobby Wagner ended up going to the Chargers, but that's good for us. As much as I love Bobby Wagner, he certainly lost a little Steve. The young buck Judkins gonna get a lot of release. Hey, Derwin James, if you want to man up JO, that'd be awesome. And then I'm going to throw this drag. Thank you very much. You couldn't make it much easier. The juke doesn't. That was the exact read we were looking for. Oh, I'm doing it. It's one of my favorite plays this year. Fake halfback zone quarterback boot. You ever seen that clip of Pton Manning faking the handoff and rolling out? It's basically that. I don't know IF IT'S GOING TO WORK. It might. It will. Mayfield. And he's going to fake a broken leg. Why are he black? His right arm's black. He did the stanky leg and he turned black. Or is that just the shadow? No, he looks black. Black or Mayfield? Baker Mayfield is half black if we're being for real. But all of that doesn't really matter cuz right now the Chargers can't be stopped. They got 14 points right now. We're back in the red zone. I got a few good stops before. Oh, it's Hampton. Dude, I'm bottling him up. Hampton is worthless in the red zone right now. That's a timeout Harbaugh. I didn't even, you know, if I can force him to a field goal even, that would be great. I'm going to blitz McNeil Warren. Oh, it's another pass. Cororumo's Uh-oh. Big hit needed. Tell me why David and Jooku is cooking us. David and Jooku's on the Chargers. Oh, yeah. I guess I forgot we don't have Injoku anymore. David Ajoku has two touchdowns in the AFC Championship. He's frying my roster. Although I do get to come in. No, I don't. Excellent clock. Wow, blue balls. They blue balls the [ __ ] out of me with that. They said big field goal and the clock went down. No timeouts. That would have been big. I would have taken those points for sure. It's fourth and inches. This game's not over, but our season might be. If I don't win here, this game is over. Do we trust Quinn Sean Judkins for one yard here? I don't think we have much of a choice. Quinn Sean got to get there. Good blocks. Cut it back. Derwin's going to make a good tackle, but Quinn Sean got five there. And now we've got another red zone alert. Clock is not our friend. Come on, Baker. I'm going to send Jamo to the end zone once again. Derwin James. Oh, it's a zone. Just going to take a little bit of something. Damn, the directly directly forward stiff arm is kind of lit. I'm looking for man coverage every time I can get it cuz JLo's just going to torch him. I kind of like KC here. KC Concepts. Second and eight. KC might be open. He is big time. Got the green. And the rookie gets a touchdown in this AFC Championship. 14 to 21. Once again, it's an important rule. We can only play the moments. So, we got to make them count every single time. Even if you got a God squad. Four minutes left in this game. Down by seven. And they're in scoring range. They're going to go back to Amari and Hampton. But I tell you what, this Cleveland defense is doing such a good job of stopping that Amari Hampton. He's been such a nightmare for other teams. Not for us right now. Our issue is David and Jooku. What the [ __ ] is that? No. Hampton. No. This is really bad. It's really bad because if we don't get a turnover, they're going to get a field goal and then we're in so much trouble. I got to imagine this is a run. I'm bringing Ronnie Hickman over for the inside zone. It's not It's I sold that completely. I brought Ronnie Hickman over for the run and his man is Lab Makoni. That's entirely my fault. Either way, they were going to get points on that drive. So, I have to score twice, but it would have been great to hold him to a field goal. That was a big cell right there. Let's see what we can do. AJ Brown's got a ton of room to work with. Can't fight through the tackles, but that's huge. Let's go. No huddle. If I can score for the two-minute warning, we still can win this game. We retain our timeouts. They're still in man coverage, too. Who's that on AJ Brown? It's a big ass dude. Okay. No, they're in a zone. What the [ __ ] Could have been intended for Judkins. He bobbled it with his elbows. What the hell was that? Okay, second and 10. That was really bizarre. I've never seen that before. Roll out right with Baker. We're just going to take Conpsson for 10. We're going to probably have to burn the two-minute warning here. Unless Unless Unless. Oh my god, we got that snap off. I'm so impressed. Jamal makes a tough catch. Got an extra 15 before the two-minute warning. We almost have to onside kick. Chargers have been lethal in the red zone. We got to score right here, right now. Jamo's going to get another 10. We got to know huddle this. I mean, I had three timeouts to stop him. I might as well on sidekick. And maybe they'll miss the field goal. It's really going to come down to it. But I got to score this first. First and goal. AJ wide open. Easy. Dropped. Oh, we got lit up by Derwin James. Oh no. Okay, at least it stops the clock. Second and goal. Well, if we don't score, we're certainly not getting it. Third and goal. We're going bench here. Got to trust AJ Brown. I think I'm trusting AJ Brown. Oh my god, I can't even get the ball off now. This pass rush is crazy. FOURTH AND GOAL IS OUR FINAL OPPORTUNITY OR WE'RE RESETTING. One season to win a Super Bowl. Who's going to get open? Fourth and goal. JO's open. Dropped again. Derwin James and Bobby Wagner just sealed our fate. Damn, we dropped so many passes there. Even if we make those big catches, we've got to onside kick. If we don't get that, we got to use our three timeouts, get a punt back, and then score. I tell you what, man, that Chargers team was crazy good. Fourth and goal. Did I have anybody else more open? I think JMO was the right call. But I tell you what, Derwin James was just lighting us up today, dude. Lowkey, I love this team we built. But we get all the way to the AFC Championship right in his chest. Derwin's a monster. As genuinely insane as this Browns roster is, we failed our challenge. I get one season to win a Super Bowl, and I couldn't do it. So, Coach Brown, thank you for your service, but I've got to start from scratch. All right, let's run this thing back. Starting with free agency. We can pass on Tyreek Kil. He's too big of a cat hit, but maybe I could actually get Harrison Smith this time. I offered him relatively low. I'm going to respect the gesture and accept the current offer. He's ready to go. Beautiful. Still a decent hit to our cap, but I really needed to do it anyway because I know I'm going to trade Grant Delpit. He's just too expensive for what we're trying to do right now. Same thing with Jerry Judy. Both these guys got to go again, but this time I'm going for a monster quarterback. Our defense was so good last time. And that Chargers team still put up 28. And I came up short in the red zone. Baker's good, but what if I had a serious playmaker like a Josh Allen? I was going to say Lamar Jackson, but he has a no trade clause. Honestly, Caleb Williams would be sick. The Bills are offended by my offer. There is not a single package I can put together to get Josh Allen. That's three first rounders. I'm about to repeat history of Deshun Watson deal, but I can't. Here's a different strategy altogether. Why don't we get a quarterback like Jackson Dart? Cost me Del Pitt, a second, two/3s, two fourths. But I haven't burned any of our firsts yet. Now we can trade Jerry Judy and a first, one first for Chris Jones. I'm looking to move Malik Collins. I want an edge rusher. We just don't have any cap. Holy [ __ ] Malik Collins, two firsts and a second. Aiden Hutchinson. So, as it stands, the offense is really not changed much. Jackson Dart is now our quarterback. I'm really hoping that if we play well with Jackson Dart, and it does seem like Brown's offense is pretty solid, maybe I can get him to be a superstar for the Super Bowl. And I just built the best defense in football. This is absolutely insane. Same as last time, McNeil Warren's going to go to strong safety. But this time, instead of adding Micah Parsons, we add XFactor Chris Jones and XFactor Aiden Hutchinson alongside Jared Verse and Mason Graham. Dude, that pass rush is going to be insane. I don't know how people are going to score on us. This is the greatest Dline ever. Now, we still got some issues. I still need a third corner. I like adding Harrison Smith. I really like the linebackers. I don't feel any need to switch this up. Offensively, I need a standout wide receiver for Jackson Dart to throw to, and I don't have much cap to do that with. I've got 3 mil. I am just poaching the Giants roster. Dylan Samson, Cedric Tilman, and a firstrounder gets me Malik Neighbors. Malik Neighbors is so young that he's not a big cap hit at all. This was the perfect guy to get. 86 overall superstar. And thematically like this is good. We're reuniting the wide receiver and the quarterback. Even though Malik Neighbors was hurt for almost all of last year. Malik Neighbors is fast, too. 96 speed, 92 Excel, and he gets abilities. I just got to find a corner three for this defense. I don't have many picks left to work with here. I'm literally selling every pick. There's not enough picks in my arsenal for Sauce Gardner. The Eagles might part ways with Quintano Bay. Oh my god. 89 overall. Quinnion Mitchell for literally just six picks. A fourth, two seconds, 2/3, and fifth. That's like pretty much everything I can trade with. All I've got left are sixth and seventh rounders. Don't say the thing, you [ __ ] infantile. You [ __ ] fouryear-old. Don't say the thing. That just sent shivers up my spine. So, there's a very clear new strategy for this Cleveland Browns team. Offense was much cheaper. Just Jackson Dart and Malik Neighbors. I even lost Dylan Samson in the shuffle. But defensively, Quinnion Mitchell, Denzel Ward, Jared Verse, Chris Jones, Mason Graham, Aiden Hutchinson, Harrison Smith. We said f them picks and we also said f that offense. But my thought is that Jackson Dart and League Neighbors can improve so much and that our defense can literally just carry this team entirely. This is how I see the Seattle Seahawks. Jackson Dart is our Sam Darnold. Malik Neighbors is our Jackson Smith and Jigba. And then we're just the best defense ever. I don't think those comparisons really hold up, but just hear me out. In our first season as GM of the Cleveland Browns, we traded everything for a god squad, but we got stopped short in the AFC Championship. For a second run at it with our monster defense, we would finish just slightly better. Still at the top of the AFC North, but this time 14 and three. An extra win looks good to me. But are you getting deja vu? Notice anything similar? The Chargers once again are 15-2. Now, our playoff bracket is different. Our round one opponent is the Buffalo Bills and the Texans didn't even make it this time. But guess who's sitting there as the one seed? The Los Angeles Chargers. So, if we win win the divisional and the Chargers win their game, it's going to be a rematch in the AFC Championship. I guess the Chargers just cracked. The one seed in the NFC is once again the Philadelphia Eagles and the Lions were able to get the three seed without Aiden Hutchinson and now all of my picks. So I think I created a monster in the NFC. As for us though, Quinn Yian Mitchell led the league in interceptions with eight. Aiden Hutchinson came short with 17 sacks only behind Josh Hines Allen. Also, I don't know why guys, but Zack Bond gets like 15 plus sacks every season. It must be Philly's playbook. Jackson Dar did not put up Baker numbers, but he actually had more touchdowns. That's pretty cool. Quinn Judkins had a better rushing season this time around with,5. Malik Neighbors had an awesome season, although it was not as good as Tyreek. I can't believe Tyreek Gil was so good for us last season. Malik Neighbors had 1312. Sorry, not Tyreek Hill, Jameson Williams. I can't believe how good Jameson Williams was for us last season. I think that speed is just crazy. Malik had 1312. KC had 137. So, he got to shine even more. potential offensive rookie of the year, which would give him superstar dev. That'd be pretty crazy. Defensively, we had seven sacks out of Schwessinger. 6 and a half out of Coramoa. Schwessinger could almost get defensive player of the year, but that's that line. Two interceptions, a force fumble, seven sacks, 140 tackles. Could be crazy, but 800 had 17. Verse had 15. Graham had nine and a half. In fact, our least productive player on defense was Chris Jones. At least out of our our monster starters. That's kind of shocking, but there's too many miles to feed, guys. We're just, this defense is insane. And the interception numbers, I think, are the best. Eight out of Mitchell, four out of Ward, three out of Smith, two out of Schwessinger. Think about the fact that the New York Jets didn't have an interception all of last year. Is that Did I just I think that's correct. The New York Jets finished the 2025 season with zero interceptions. So, Quinn and Mitchell just put up eight seasons of Jets defense football. Don't do the math on that. Okay, just shut up. Looks like Harrison Smith's Denzel Ward forced two fumbles and recovered four. Let's take a look around the league before we go into our playoff run. Cam Scataboo led the league in rushing yards, followed up by Jonathan Taylor, Ashton Genty, Josh Jacobs, and Javvante Williams. Passing this time was Joe Burrow, followed up by Justin Herbert. This is what I mean, dude. Like, passing stats are juiced this year. I think Burrow will probably get MVP, but 29-2 is crazy out of Herbert. There's Baker. I bet he wishes he was a Cleveland Brown right now. Probably not. Tyler Shuck is always getting crazy yards. And you know what's funny? Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs offense got nerfed to hell. Like you will never see Patrick Mahomes in the top five passing yards which I think is really funny but you'll always see Tyler Shuck up there. You just got shucked buddy. Leading the league in receiving yards is Quinton Johnston followed by Jamar Chase Ibuka George Pickkins and T. Higgins. But Kai Lemon, that's a bummer. But Kai Lemon is going to win offensive rookie of the year. He cooked. That is a bummer. Before I can worry about the Chargers, I got to get past the Bills. They're 9 and eight. I tried to trade for Josh Allen. They told me to get [ __ ] Josh Allen, James Cook, and Greg Resort are their best players, while ours are Aiden Hutchinson, Chris Jones, and Denzel Ward. Taking a look at our lineup after that season, Jackson Darts a 91. Yeah, that's exactly what we're going for. Malik Neighbors is a 93, Casey's an 89, Fannon's an 88. Damn, this team got good. Now, defense probably didn't progress a lot cuz a lot of these guys are a little bit older. Like Chris Jones didn't get any better, but Verse got better, Hutchinson got two, Mitchell got better, Denzel Ward got better, Smith, it's just aura farming. I like this team. Our overall is significantly higher, too. We're an 89 overall with a 92 defense. I just can't come up short on offense. I need Jackson Dart to clutch up. Maybe I should use some new uniforms for our second run at this. I'm going to go alternate classics. These are sick. But I got to put Bills in something blue. They have the Bills new alternates. I think these are the shittiest. I hate these so much, bro. Round two. Fight. This is not a good start. Bill's already got seven. Our first moments on defense. And I aptly named our new head coach Sloppy Seconds since I couldn't get it done the first time. Jared Verse, Chris Jones. I want to be Hutchinson. If I was going to be Miles Garrett Oh, I'm getting doubled. And Josh Allen's able to get it out. Damn, this is a really bad start. You got to give me an offensive moment. This is a huge issue. This monster defense already let up 14. I'm getting This is a flashback to the Chargers game. But you know what? I can play better offense this time. I can clutch up here. Judkins is easy enough for a first. Nothing more than that. Oh, I forgot about wear and tear, too. Wear and tear is so stupid. [ __ ] wear and tear, bro. First and 10. Who's in the back field? Who the hell is that? Sanders. Is that Shadur? Come back to get some reps. I did have to trade Dylan Samson. So, our backup is no longer Dylan Samson. And I do like Dylan Samson. We need a big pass here. Second and nine. Big play needed. We're going play action. They got a looper. Oh, dart. I got to step up faster. If I step up in that pocket faster, we honestly have a chance to just scramble for that. Jackson Dart is pretty quick. Third and nine. I got to make a huge play here. Not good. Very new backfield. I don't know where Judkins is. I wonder if the wear and tear is getting to him bad. That's a very new backfield. I should probably take advantage of this monster. Malik Neighbors. Third and nine. Malik Neighbors need it. And through the contact, he catches it. That's what I couldn't get last season. Through the contact, we were dropping everything in that big game against the Chargers. Malik Neighbors makes it happen. First and 10. What do we got here? Oh, Malik Neighbors wide open green bean. Love that green catching. Love that green window. Especially on a good wide receiver. Get a nice window. Dude, Quinn Sean Judkins might be injured cuz he won't come back in. He's supposed to be in in this formation for sure. I guess we're rocking Sanders. I'm going fan and I think he can make that catch. Good defense. Couldn't hit my window. That's good defense. So, we got Denzel Boston and KC on the left. Got Malik on the right. I just I kind of want to hit Malik. Oh, Malik's double covered. This is a really bad ball now. Triple covered. Intercepted by Cole Bishop. I tried to lead that ball to the outside, but Jackson Dart's throwing stats aren't what I hoped. That was a That was not where I wanted that ball to go. Now defense needs my help, understandably after I make a huge turnover right there. We're going to have to make some plays. I'm going to go on Schwestinger and send a blitz. I want to take Josh Allen down here. They have no timeouts. A sack would put us in a really good spot. Definitely force a field goal. Got to get OFF JAMES COOK. I DO. JOSH ALLEN'S DOWN. 20 SECONDS. Can they get a kicking team out there? Apparently Jared Vers got wear and tear, too. 15 seconds. Second and 21. They can't get it off. They can't get anything off. Madden gives Madden takes. Should you realistically be able to get the kicking unit out there? Yes. But Madden doesn't equate for those things. And the Bills run out of time. That's huge. They would have got three up right there for sure. Okay. 14 to seven. That sack was exactly what we needed. Jared Verse got home. Hey, big stop. Third and four. Wait a minute. If we get this stop right here. No, I don't want man. I want a zone. Let's get on Schwessinger. Cover two. Third and four. Huge play. Guess pass. Use all that pass rush. No. Fumble picked up. But that's a fourth. They got the first. He got rocked. And that's a hold. They're going for it. What? Fourth and six. They're going. This is crazy. I can't believe they're going for this. Come on, DLINE. COME ON, DLINE. QUINTON MO. Holy [ __ ] What a stop. I cannot believe they just went for that. Up by seven in the third quarter. He got some nuts over there. It might be their downfall. I'm stepping up with checks. Dude, I can't get all in this pocket. That is four sacks for Buffalo. We only have one with our monster D line. We only got one. Okay, I need something new. Oh, if they're going to keep running, man, let's block Royer. Let's block our running back. Give me some time and let Malik Neighbors get open. Second and 12. That is It's sort of man, but Malik Neighbors is just completely blanketed. That was just bagged. I need something different. I need something different entirely. What I'm doing is not working. I will settle for a field goal here after playing some good defense, but I'd prefer Malik Neighbors went up and made a play. Tell me we got some man coverage here. Third and 11. That's a zone. Jackson Dart finally able to step up. GIVE ME A BLOCK. DART first and goal. Jackson Dart finally able to get out of that pocket. Let's run this ball. We're going to go RPO actually. Nope. That's the third quarter. Oh my god. Jackson Dart got that. Things can change quick. It was looking like this game was over. You know what? This worked in our last universe. This worked. Maybe we can do it here. Going to go back to this jet touch pass to the outside. Pancakes. Spencer Fedo, the rookie with the pancake. Dude, he sat him on his ass. What a play. Third and eight. The wild card is no joke right now. This is a handoff to Cook. It looks like it. Josh Allen with an audible. You know, I wanted to Oh, versus got him. Huge play. Dude, I wanted to try out these new jerseys for the Bills cuz I think these are their jerseys for for this upcoming season. At least one of their alternates. I literally hate them. I don't like to be a hater on jerseys. I think these look so bad, bro. It looks like a shitty D2 college program. I don't know. I'm a hater. I guess I'm a hater. Third and 16. Huge play. Let's take these. Oh, third and 16. What am I thinking? Let's take these. I said third and 16 out loud, but I didn't register it in my brain. Cory Bourkez going to need a really good punt here. Ooh, I don't like that. My gunner's on the [ __ ] ground. Are you for real? Sunara will make the play, though. I think that's my long snapper that just made the play. Okay, huge stop now. 14 to 14. Wasn't worth risking it. They'd be guaranteed to score. Josh Allen and the Bills. What do you got? They could run it. They don't. Ooh, that's Holy [ __ ] I blanketed that route, but it was a bad ball. I'm going to risk it. I'm risking it with Schwessinger. Come on, big cars. RPO bottled up Rody Hickman. Third and 13. That's what I like to see. You know, fun fact, I met Carson Schwessinger in real life. He's a [ __ ] dog. He says he watches videos. So, Carson, I hope you're watching this one. Just kidding. Just kidding. I just got you so bagged up. I really hope you didn't see that. Good thing Denzel Ward is still a freak cuz we're going to force fourth and 13. Come on now. Punt for punt. Wallace on the return. Let's get some yards. Big spin. Oh, I sat him down. 2 minutes 6 seconds. Wildard playoff. Jackson Dart's got to make it happen. I need a different offense. My offensive looks have not been good. I got to bring out a different formation. Oh, Jackson Dart. Playmaker. Dart. What a ball. The playmaker. That was beautiful. Dude, Jackson Dart is fast. Kind of already knew that, but damn, he can move. First and 10. I was going to say that single coverage, but that DB dropped back like crazy. I almost aired that out to Malik Neighbors and might have thrown another interception if I did. Really glad I didn't. Second and inches. We run the ball now. Dude, Quinnshaw Judkins must literally be hurt. He's got to be so hurt. The backup Barry Sanders son. It's not Raheem Sanders. Entered this season as a third string running back and just made a huge run in the wildard playoff. We're going counter run. Dude, Sanders is killing it. Let's keep running it. Buffalo's down to two timeouts and we're in field goal range to end this game. Raheem Sanders. What else you got, kid? Good blocks. Don't score. That's just high football IQ. Now, you want to know what's low football IQ? Just running this right now. earning the boot zone roll out. That's low football IQ, but I want history to repeat itself. Oh my god. No. Get down. I'm sorry. Someone take the controller out of my hand. Let's get back to playing smart football. Burton's going to lead block. Sanders is going to pull this clock down to virtually no time left. Damn, Sanders is having a He's ended his game out real solid. Now, just in case, it's time to bring out the field goal unit. Schmidt's got an absolute cakewalk field goal here. 23 yds. high school PAT. You can time it up early and hold a so you don't have to try and time it up. Buffalo's going to have about 10 seconds to score, but Schmidt's going to put this through. 17 to 14. Browns might move on. No miracles for Buffalo. The Bills are headed home and coach Sloppy seconds says that's what you get for wearing those jerseys. Honestly, Jackson Dart actually played really really well. The the huge scramble on third and 11, the playmaker to Malik Neighbors 17 to 14. Deja vu times two as the Browns would breeze past the Bengals 35-4 in the divisional. And what do you know? Our AFC championship is against the Los Angeles Chargers. On the other side, it's Seattle taking on the Falcons. It's the Bird teams. Eagles couldn't make it this time. And I get my long awaited rematch against the Chargers. I'm not losing this time. We got a better roster this time, a way better defense. And Jackson Dar Malik are cooking on offense. It's the same Chargers team. Herbert Derwin, Amarian Hampton, AFC Championship. Dude, Deja Vu, our first moment, is making a big stop on defense. I'm actually so shocked at how this all panned out. The Chargers went 15-2 in back-to-back Sims. AFC Championship in backto-back Sims. Can I finally take them down? Third 11. Huge opportunity for a stop here. You can CHECK DOWN IF YOU WANT, BUT THAT DLINE IS TOO DAMN GOOD. That is a Chris Jones Jared verse sandwich. And we've got a third down alert. We might be able to strike first this time. Last time I got an offensive moment against the Chargers, I was already losing by 14. This time it's third and seven, and I can actually make something happen here. Good double team. Malik is so open. He's got it. I could have scrambled that with Dart, but if I had a just a little bit better of a ball there, I might have been able to get that in the end zone. But still, we're seeing that Jackson Dart is still a young quarterback who's not fully developed. He's got good stats right now. He's making it work, but we are missing some throws here and there. Either way, first and 10. Shit's looking good. Blitz off the edge. I'm going to the middle. Conception can give me one. That was ugly. They sent a little Yeah, they sent their free safety off the edge there. This time they don't have Harrison Smith because I do. Or maybe it was the Bengals who had him last time. Either way, I've got him now. Judkins. It's kind of a nasty move. I don't think it did anything. But we go first and goal. I don't think I'm utilizing my running back as much as I should. Dude, read option. OH, THEY GOT BOBBY WAGNER AGAIN. There's not a lot of differences in these. That's Bobby Wagner, isn't it? Right in the middle. 54. We're going read option. BALLSY CALL. I'M KEEPING IT. JACKSON DART'S GOT A LOT OF ROOM. Derwin can't get there. Jackson Dart with the stiff arm. I mean, Derwin did get the tackle, but we strike first this time against this powerhouse Chargers team. Here we go. I'm blitzing Schwessinger. I'm supposed to be manned up on Hampton, but I don't care. Wow, quick throw. Damn, that really is a hard ball playbook. Third and 16, and you go with a wide receiver screen. That was a crazy play call. Tell you what though, they got a punt dot as we take over. This stadium is loud and we're on the one. Judkins is back in though. Let's just get something. Way to power through. We get four yards out of Quinn Sean. Big plays. Big plays. Nobody's on Judkins. Oh, bad pass. We really do. We keep missing these passes more than we should. Just going to go with a classic. Third and two. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, I didn't mean to do that at all. I was pressing RB to fake the snap. Oh no. I hate when that happens. You know when you spam a button too fast, you end up just throwing it. Fourth and two, 52 seconds. I need to punt this. This is so stupid. Oh, I need to punt this. Wow. It's a huge mistake I just made. Now it's third and nine. 17 seconds. Yeah, we just can't let them get anything crazy here. Honestly, if we sack them, they might be out of field goal range. One of my one of my BIG BOYS GOT TO GET HOME. Holy checkdown. No way. You just did that. Damn, that was impressive. Jay Herbo, why are you running a play? What the [ __ ] are they doing with 9 seconds and no timeouts? Just sack him. If we sack him, they get nothing here. Or if they throw a Oh, are we so serious? This team is inevitable. They should have Brennan Thompson. They just risked getting tackled and getting nothing and they got the seven. I can't believe they just did that. I just I can't actually. But that was insane. Okay, third and one. I'm going motion zone toss. This could be a really cool play. Going to motion the tight end to left. Going to flip it over there. We got room. But that's Bobby Wagner. That's a first. Bobby Wagner's still unit, but like I said before, actually, same thing as last time. He's just too slow. Too old to really stick with us there. We're going to go same formation. Where is Malik Neighbors? This a four tight end set. I've never seen something like this. Nobody. Absolutely nobody's on Quinch Sean. The juke goes That's money juke, too. Okay, seven to seven. These are interesting plays we got here, dude. What is this set? This is insane. I'm running it. Home play action. You're like lowkey open. Oh my god. He caught it. I don't know who that is. Royer. It's like a tackle. Dude, I'm staying in this this like Hulk set. There's a four tight end set. There's not a single wide receiver on the field. And Judkins is in. I love it. Okay, big stop here. Third 11. No way they pull off the miracle again. This D line's getting home on Herbert whether they like it or not. No more miracles, Herbert. No more miracles. Aiden Hutchinson. Thank you, sir. Now, field goal is going to give us a two possession lead. I'm getting out of that formation. I'm going to bring in Malik Neighbors. Believe it or not, I'm bringing in Malik Neighbors. Third and two. They don't have anything to guard a short route. Perfect. He's 10 yards off him. That's just simple football. Now, we just got to hold on to this lead. I'm not entirely sure what we're running here. Okay, kind of like this. Jackson Dart patient, good block. I love when my offense looks alive and throws a heads up block. Just gets me in the zone. Second and three. Brown Super Bowl and route. That's the hope. Quinn Shawn gets stuck. He got stuck. Charges are run out of timeouts though. Quickly running out of timeouts. Jackson Dart, why don't we make a play, kid? Why don't we make a play? Damn, good defense. Bagged up. Oh yeah, we're back in the Hulk, baby. I know this is not Hulk, but this is such a funny formation to me. It's literally three of our tight ends and our fullback at tight end. And I'm running a toss to Quinchan. Those blocks were okay. Really should have ran that up the middle. They didn't have anything up the middle on that. See if they come out a similar formation. Yeah, dude. I'm going dive against this. Third and 12. Set up for a field goal. Go get something, Judkins. Damn. Not the blocks you're looking for on a heavy set like that. Either way, Schmidt can give us a two-possession lead with no timeouts out of the Chargers and beyond the two-minute warning. It's all defense. I mean, my offense isn't that great right now. It's working. It's working. 17-7. Buffalo was the real test. That was a tough game. Chargers are going to fall here. We got our redemption, but it ain't over. The final leg of this challenge is winning the Super Bowl. Jackson had zero touchdowns. And with everything said and done, our Super Bowl matchup is against the reigning champs. Seattle takes down the Falcons. Jaylen Herz won league MVP, which is interesting. Jamar Chase got offensive player of the year. Jaylen Herz got offensive player of the year. David Bailey won defensive rookie of the year. Oh, it's for each conference. I see. Defensive player of the year is Josh Allen, I think. Well, this breaking news tab doesn't really work when you show me everything. Who's the real winner? Casey Conception wins offensive rookie of the year, at least for the AFC. and Mai Lemon gets it for the NFC. So, we actually do technically win offensive rook of the year. That's the thing. In real life, there's only one, but in Madden, they give one out for each conference. And I I can't really tell who truly won it based on this, but guys, it's EA. It's small indie company. Cut him some slack. Okay, Jackson Smith and Jigba. I've got the defense to lock this dude up. I do. And we did get to have trade upgrades. KC is superstar. Quinnon Judkins is superstar. Dart does not get it on defense. Carson does. Chris Jones regresses while Jared Verse gets upgraded. Quintano Bay goes to Xfactor. Damn, you get some juicy upgrades for making the Super Bowl. We've got a clear overall advantage on the Seahawks. Their top three players are a Jigba Witherspoon and Leonard Williams. Our challenge could come to an end right here. One season to win a Super Bowl for the Cleveland Browns. And after trading everything that we have, assembling the best Dline in football with Chris Jones, Jared Verse, Mason Graham, and Aiden Hutchinson alongside poaching the Giants offensive weapons in Jackson Dart and Malik Neighbors. We finally got our opportunity taking on the Seattle Seahawks. The biggest game of the year and our first moment is not an easy one. We do get the ball on offense, but it's third and 10. Look at Jackson Darts. Look at now superstar Quinn Shawn Judkins. It's kind of a crazy route here. He's going to motion down and then run a wheel. It's really not that crazy. It's just goofy looking. Fannon's open, but I don't think he's got enough for the first. I would go for this in the Super Bowl, coach. It's fourth and two. It's the biggest game. We're going for it. Fourth and two. Ooh, inside zone. We got numbers for this. Judkins, follow your blocks. Oh, they got a bulldoze, but we just barely got around it. My goodness, dude. Leonard Williams is scary. Second and seven. We get a red zone alert. Can we strike first in the Super Bowl? I would love to. Everyone's bagged, BUT JACKSON DARN HURDLE. OH, CALCULATED. CALCULATED. CALCULATED. CALCULATED. Balls out of the four just like we drew it up. Now, let's get a Malik Neighbors touchdown. Great scramble. I'm hurdling again if I get a chance. You think that scared me? Good. Holy defense. And I get an intentional grounding. Holy defense. Would you read Would you read my playbook? Look, you pull University of Michigan. Every DB was in. I'm glad I didn't throw it. They were all picked off. That was some absurd defense right there. I'll tell you that much. Okay, Boston going to go post. Fannon down. I don't know. We're making [ __ ] up at this point. Jackson Dart's got room again, though. Okay. Is that dropped? That was dropped. We may be in a settle. I hate settling. Third and goal. I might take a shot. Oh, Judkins, can you make something happen? No, I am settling. That's why I give hurdling. They want me to apologize for the hurdle and I won't. I won't apologize for the hurdle. We got three points. I'm taking it. We do strike first in the Super Bowl, but not with seven. Interestingly enough, our next moment is another field goal. It's going to be six to zero. The first ever kicker Super Bowl MVP. Shouldn't say that. Maybe it's happened in human history. I feel like it hasn't. Certainly not if we can't keep Seattle out. Uh-oh. Harrison Smith, our first free agent signing, could definitely go get Jidarian. I like magneted onto that blocker. That was so lame. I was ready to make a play. And unfortunately, my next moment is the same. Whoa. I do not like this. First and 10. And that's going to be a pass. How do we stop Seattle? How do we stop Seattle? They check it low. Big hit, Denzel. I need a bigger hit than that. Okay, second and six. They're chewing clock. Seattle with the chew clock. I see you. Oh my dot. That was a [ __ ] dot. Sam Darnold and the Seahawks are not playing around. I do not like this. Okay, first and 10. Are you [ __ ] kidding me? Did I just get nanoed by the computer? That was four blitzers against five and we didn't put a hand on it. I was going to go Malik Neighbors in single coverage. Holy [ __ ] Seahawks are cheating and I don't like it. I'm going Malik Neighbors. I said I was going to do it so I'm going to do it. And look, Casey Conception's over there to give him a high five on the ground as he catches it. First and 10. Clock's ticking. I did not realize the clock was ticking. I thought that was out of bounds. Fannon's going to get a little bit. I'll call a timeout. Still got two timeouts. That was definitely not out of bounds. I don't know why I thought that was out of bounds. It was that awkward tackle just threw me off. Okay, Dart's going to roll out. Have some room. Fannon is so open. And he gets out of bounds. Yes, that was money. And I'm not going to take the field goal. I'm not taking it. I'm going to give Malik Neighbors a shot. I have the time. No, I really don't. This is really, really, really, really, really stupid. My brain, my frontal lobe developed midplay. Maybe best case scenario, I can still kick that field goal. Most likely, I'm not catching that ball. I I really could get a kicker. Super Bowl MVP. But first, I got to beat Seattle. And they're giving me a lot of trouble right now. 9 to 14. Ed just hates taking field goals cuz, you know, that could be 21 points if we executed better. And now it's really an issue because Seattle is back over here. And I haven't found a way to stop these guys yet. I'm guessing pass here. If they run, we're in trouble. [ __ ] Harrison Smith does it anyway. Huge. Huge. I got bailed out there big time. I'm going with the blitz again. Schwessinger. Let's go get Darnold. Yes, sir. RIGHT UP THE GUT. NOBODY'S ON ME. BANG. Big curse. Absolute gap shot on Sam Darnold. And Aiden Hutchinson's going to celebrate with me. Very nice. It's huge play. That is exactly what we need. Okay, we're going with another man coverage. We're doubling Barner. Seems weird. I'm just going to use Schwessinger as a floater. Oh well, doubling Barner was the right call, but it doesn't matter. They're not going to get it. They're going to settle for a field goal here. It's going to give them an eight-point lead unless Demari Matthysse wants to get home. Nope. Okay, Myers makes it 17 to N. A two-point conversion to tie this game up on a touchdown. Oh my god. Well, that's exactly what happened, but I didn't get to do it. It's 17 to 17. They didn't want me to see it. They might run this ball. No weird pass. Chris Jones sack. Wear and tear report pisses me off. Get that [ __ ] off my screen. And also I don't [ __ ] care. 17 to 20. Oh, this Super Bowl IS COMING DOWN TO IT. JACKSON, you press Malik Neighbors. I know it's Devin Witherspoon. I know he's really good. I'm going to block Fannon. I might go Malik. KC. I don't need Malik. KC torched him. The rookie. The AFC's offensive rookie of the year just made the biggest play of the Super Bowl. Wow, Seattle was up there like we were going to run it. First and 10. That was a gutsy play call and it paid off as Schwestinger lights up Jaren Price. Welcome to the NFL, kid. Okay. Okay. Second and 13. They got a pass here. I'm going to guess pass. Look at that. Four X Factor Dlinemen or at least four abilities. Maybe not all X factor. Got a boomerang motion out of JSN and down he goes. Chris Jones JUST SACKED THE GUARD AND SAM DARNOLD. That's got to be illegal. Chris Jones is having a day. I mean, if anybody on this team has Super Bowl experience, it's Chris Jones. In fact, he might be one of the only players on this team that has Super Bowl experience, I guess. Does Quinnon Mitchell third and 19. Trying to remember when they drafted him. He's got Dude, this Dline just came alive. Dline's going absolutely insane right now. I'm running mid. Oh my god, they're going for this. I shouldn't be running mid blitz. [ __ ] it. I'm doing it. We're just sending heat. Don't give Sam Darnold a second to breathe. Heat. Heat. Yes, sir. No, sir. BANG. Wait a minute. This could be the dagger. We get a touchdown right here. We're virtually in the red zone already. I can't believe Casey Conception made such a big play for us. That was huge. Okay, first and 10. Big play. What do we got? Floater over the middle. Malik Neighbors is wide open. What? No. Jackson guards. If he hits him in stride, that's a touchdown. It's a great play though. Way to step up in the pocket and make something happen. We're going to go Quinchan Judkins now. Minute 46. Seattle's got no timeouts. We're a first down away from a win. Judkins broke. This might be over. Is this over? Maybe not. Trying to do the math on this. They have one timeout. No two-minute warning. I think it's over. We're on a little motion inside zone here. Judkins, you just got to hang on to the football and we're almost out of here. GOOD BOUNCE IT. WHY NOT? WHY NOT? Judkins extend the lead in the Super Bowl. Quinn Sean Judkins, Jackson Dart, and this absurd Dline are a minute 30 away from winning a Super Bowl in one season. Jackson Dart, what's Jackson Dart doing? He's hitting all his emotes. Quinn Sean Judkins maybe the final touchdown of the Super Bowl. He got his bell rung, but it was enough to get that ball across. Hey. Hey. Oh, this will feel good. I got to go on Big Hutch. Fourth and six. Can we get home with big hutch? Almost. Doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. In one season, the Cleveland Browns are Super Bowl champions. That is challenge complete. Trade difficulty on hard, playing only the moments. And head coach Sloppy Seconds is able to get it done. It did take us two tries. And honestly, with that god squad we built at the start, we almost should have done it then. It does go to show you to some extent you can cheese the hell out of trades in this game. But at the same time, this roster is obliterated. Three years from now, almost none of these guys will still be on the team. We have no cap space, no picks. That's a hell of an afro on KC. He's got a big afro. Sloppy seconds. Sloppy seconds. 31 to 20. And the 1X Super Bowl champions, Cleveland Browns. Super Bowl MVP, Chris Jones. Welldeserved. Sloppy Seconds gets coach of the year. Nice. That That was awesome. Honest to God, that was only so hard because of Deshun Watson. If Deshun Watson was not eating up this team's entire cap space, you could build an even crazier god squad for one year. This is the perfect team for this challenge. We put together the ultimate one hit wonder team. Although we may be in cap hell and we may never make it back to the Super Bowl, we certainly had an awesome one year. All right, boys. THAT'S IT FOR THIS VIDEO. I HOPE YOU enjoyed and I'll see you in the next one. Peace.
