1 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:08,840 Speaker 1: Welcome to this Victory Friday edition of the From the 2 00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:12,480 Speaker 1: Podium podcast. I'm Gabe Klea. The Browns beat the Pittsburgh 3 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,680 Speaker 1: Steelers in a winter wonderland on Thursday night by a 4 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,720 Speaker 1: score of twenty four to nineteen. On this episode, you'll 5 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 1: hear from head coach Kevin Stefanski, quarterback Jamis Winston, and 6 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,279 Speaker 1: defensive end Miles Garrett. Head coach Kevin Stefanski took the 7 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: stand first to praise his team's resiliency. 8 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:33,600 Speaker 2: Okay injury front said has a concussion, so well he'll 9 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 2: be in the protocol. That was an unbelievable atmosphere for 10 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:43,199 Speaker 2: a football game. Our fans were unbelievable, maybe believable, just 11 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 2: how incredible they were from the jump and then the 12 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 2: snow globe. It's just it's a special night for our fans, 13 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 2: and I think they deserve it. You know, this team, 14 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 2: we talk about being resilient and sometimes you have to 15 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 2: show it, and I thought they showed it tonight. Fought 16 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 2: like crazy against a good football team. Well, you know, 17 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 2: leading in the fourth quarter, then all of a sudden 18 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 2: down in the fourth quarter nineteen eight, throw an interception, 19 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 2: get a three and out, force a great, have a 20 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 2: great rush on punt return, force a bad punt, get 21 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 2: the ball score you know, fifty seconds left. So just 22 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,320 Speaker 2: complimentary football when we need it the most. And uh, 23 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 2: just proud of those guys. So with that, I'll take 24 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:24,679 Speaker 2: any questions. 25 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 3: Kevin. 26 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 4: I know, prior to this game, you said that Nick 27 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 4: was probably just treating it like any other game. And 28 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 4: I know you he said that as well. But what 29 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,199 Speaker 4: did it mean for him? You know, when he scored 30 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 4: the game, any touchdown, scored two SIPs guns to play 31 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 4: as well as he did, you know, making this game. 32 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,199 Speaker 2: I don't think it meant anything other than he wants 33 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 2: to do everything in his power to help his football 34 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 2: team win. The Nick Chubbs the you know, he is 35 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 2: the consummate teammate. He's the best I've been around in 36 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 2: that regard, and he wants to help this team win. Kevin, 37 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 2: a couple of turnovers, said, but how about Jamis Winston 38 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 2: doesn't play a lot of snow games. What do you 39 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 2: think it Hill, Yeah, that's probably true. Yeah, I thought 40 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 2: Jamis was was good. Obviously the play there to Jerry 41 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,679 Speaker 2: at the end, that's big time. I had another fourth down, 42 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 2: I think to Jerry before that, so we're really proud 43 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 2: of how he played in front. 44 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 5: Kevin Miles had another huge first half. Just what did 45 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 5: you see out of him and the impacted at first 46 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 5: half half? 47 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know the first half, I think what you'll 48 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 2: see and why the impact wasn't there in the second 49 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 2: half for both teams was the footing was really hard 50 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,679 Speaker 2: to rush the passer. But I thought, you know, he 51 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 2: just he knew this matchup, he knew that we needed him, 52 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 2: we needed the big guy, and he certainly came through. 53 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 6: How about Jerry Judy just coming up time and time 54 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 6: again in this game. 55 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, Jerry was was really good. He's early on, I 56 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 2: felt like he was gonna have some opportunities. Then the 57 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 2: conditions became a bit of a challenge, and then you 58 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 2: know you're there and you need him in the fourth 59 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 2: and and he came through. 60 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,519 Speaker 4: I mean along those lines like when you guys bring 61 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 4: in Jerry obviously on this of excitment about the like 62 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 4: the electric plays, the downfield plays, but just some of 63 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 4: those tough catches like is that maybe something that you've 64 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 4: learned about it? 65 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 2: I thought that was you know, that's a really good point, Daniel, 66 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 2: like early in that maybe it's a third drive. He 67 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 2: caught an end cut with I think twenty four was 68 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 2: all over him, draped all over him, and was strong 69 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 2: through the catch, and that was That's really good to 70 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 2: see from Jerry because we know he can wiggle open, 71 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 2: he can run away from people, but when you can 72 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 2: make those contested catchup, you become a very difficult guy 73 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 2: to cover for the defense. 74 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 7: You mentioned the fans, but did the team draw energy 75 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 7: from the snow? 76 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 3: I don't know. 77 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 2: I think the team draws energy from night games. And 78 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 2: then just the way I mean it was, I don't 79 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 2: know what it looked like on TV, but it was. 80 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 2: It was unique to to to just see it. I 81 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 2: stopped looking at the the pictures on the sideline just 82 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 2: because it was you couldn't tell, but yeah, our guys 83 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 2: love playing under the lights, they love playing in front 84 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 2: of these fans. Add the snow element, it was it 85 00:03:58,680 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 2: was pretty cool. 86 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 5: I mean, just would an impact did it have? You 87 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 5: mentioned the footing for the pass rushers, but it looked 88 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 5: like the jamis interception maybe slid like could you see 89 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 5: that happening? 90 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, And you know that's the challenge of these games. 91 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 2: We talked about it all week. What the conditions may be, 92 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 2: and how that may adjust some of what we were doing. Certainly, 93 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 2: I think it changes your scheme a little bit and 94 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 2: what you're trying to accomplish because the footing is really challenging. 95 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 2: It's really challenging for the defense because they're the ones 96 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 2: that are reacting. 97 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 8: And going back to. 98 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 9: Jamis for a second, but what did you see in 99 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 9: the decision making on his touchdown just being able to 100 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,160 Speaker 9: just kind of see that hole and get into the 101 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 9: end zone. 102 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought it was a really good play by Jamis. 103 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 2: You know, sometimes you're on the headset and you're telling him, hey, 104 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,559 Speaker 2: throw it here, run here, and he's just we trust 105 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 2: him to just go make those plays and he's he's 106 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 2: he's a good athlete. There are a couple of times 107 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 2: where he's moving in the pocket. He found some guys 108 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 2: as he climbed in the pocket. So he's doing a 109 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 2: nice job. 110 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 7: How about it looked like he busted his helmet, you know, 111 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 7: leaping into the end zone and did that add. 112 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,239 Speaker 3: A little bit of up I guess yeah. 113 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 2: I think he lost maybe the coach to quarterback there 114 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 2: for a second. He was having trouble hearing because I 115 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 2: think that came dislodged. But you know, that's an example 116 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 2: of the guys on this team that they will do 117 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 2: whatever it takes to win. 118 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 5: You mentioned the resilience, Kevin, and you know, I mean, 119 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 5: you don't direcord is and blah blah blah. So what 120 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 5: did you show you especially after giving up those two 121 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 5: touchdowns in the fourth quarter. 122 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 2: I mean, that's we talk about being a resilient football team. 123 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 2: You can talk about it till you're blowing the face, 124 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 2: but you have to show it. And I thought the 125 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 2: guy showed it today. 126 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 9: Defensively that in that first half, especially being able to 127 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 9: force see there was into those three hot situations and 128 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 9: what did you just see especially did they come out 129 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 9: with the like. 130 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 6: Or of an edge in that first half. 131 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 2: I think we just guys were doing their job. I 132 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 2: thought those fourth down stops were huge in this football game. 133 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 3: And those are turnovers. 134 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,479 Speaker 2: I know they don't go down as turnovers, but for 135 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 2: all intents and purposes, those are turnovers and that that 136 00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 2: was huge for our team. 137 00:05:58,720 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 3: Before the snow. 138 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 8: Ye the first half, Conklin has had done a good 139 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 8: job on what he was non existent in the first job. 140 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 3: Did he do a good job? He did. 141 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think Jack's a guy that has played well 142 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 2: for us. We trust him. Uh, that's a He's a 143 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 2: great Wat's a great player. He's a really a great player. 144 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 2: He has our respects. He certainly gets our attention in 145 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 2: these games. But Jack did a great job. 146 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 7: Is this team that showed up today and went out 147 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 7: and won this game the team that you really kind 148 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 7: of thought you had all season long and knew knew 149 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 7: was in there? 150 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 3: Yeah? 151 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 2: I mean I think when you say all season long, 152 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 2: Mary kay, we just were not so focused on what's 153 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 2: coming behind us. Really, our focus is on what's in 154 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 2: front of us. We knew tonight was important. 155 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 8: Uh. 156 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 2: We knew it was AFC North throughout the records. It's 157 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 2: going to be a battle. 158 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 3: We knew it. 159 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 2: I told the team last night, be ready to win 160 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 2: the game on the last play of the game. And 161 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 2: that's just how the AFC North operates. 162 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 1: What point on the last drive would you have considered 163 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: trying to kick a field goal as opposed to. 164 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 2: My mindset was that fourth and whatever the distance was, 165 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 2: h yeah, we would. I was not gonna kick from 166 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,039 Speaker 2: back there. I don't think it's in those conditions into 167 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,280 Speaker 2: the dog pound with that footing, you'd have to kick 168 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 2: a really short field goal down there. Then ultimately obviously 169 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 2: NIXT scored, but that's where you'd consider kicking a field goal. 170 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 2: I just think it's a that was very challenging footing 171 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:21,119 Speaker 2: for a kicker. 172 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 5: Kevin, I hear you say that. 173 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 3: You know you don't look back. The movie came him now. 174 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: But isn't there just a great sense of relief after 175 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: what you guys. 176 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 2: Did to winning, Jeff is a great sense of anything. 177 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 3: I mean, that's that's. 178 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 2: The emotion you want. 179 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 3: Uh, we don't. 180 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 2: I don't consider it relief. I just I know that 181 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 2: locker and what that sounds like, what that feels like 182 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 2: after when that's that's what that's the fun in this business. 183 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 7: It seemed like when we talked to James during the week, 184 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 7: he really understood what this rivalry was all about, how 185 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 7: much he needed to go out there and give the 186 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 7: best version of himself. 187 00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 6: Did you see that in him? 188 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 2: I did, And I know he hadn't played Pittsburgh, which is, 189 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 2: you know unique. I think Jamis understands this, certainly understands 190 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 2: our football team. It's very easy to understand this rivalry, 191 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 2: how important these AFC North games this one because of 192 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 2: the proximity of the two cities. 193 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 3: We know how important it is. 194 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 2: But he knew what a challenge it is when you're 195 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 2: playing the Pittsburgh Steelers. It's a good team for a reason. 196 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 2: They're good on all three sides of the ball. We 197 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 2: were gonna have to be at our best to get 198 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 2: a win. 199 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 9: Going back to Nick for a second, that first touchdown 200 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 9: was his fifteenth career touchdown. Just knowing what he's been through, 201 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 9: over seen the last year, coming back and everything, just 202 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 9: how impressive is it to see that how he's progressed. 203 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 10: Since he came back. 204 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:46,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've run out of superlatives for Nick, honestly, and 205 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 2: he's my favorite player in the team. You can tell 206 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 2: everybody else. I said that I have a favorite kid too, 207 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:58,439 Speaker 2: she's not here. But Nick does the right thing all 208 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 2: the time. And to see how what he's gone through 209 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 2: to come back and put himself where he is, just 210 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 2: to be back playing in the first place, and then 211 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 2: to be back out there and performing like he's performing, 212 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 2: scoring for this football team when we need him the 213 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 2: most us. He's a special, special player, but he's a 214 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 2: great person. 215 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 6: Miles kind of poked the bear a little bit this 216 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 6: week with the TJ. Watt stuff. But maybe was there 217 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 6: a method to his man is because he certainly went 218 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 6: out there and kind of backed it up. 219 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 2: I mean, I know Miles obviously loves the matchup of 220 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 2: going against another great player. I know they don't face 221 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 2: each other, but we'll just convince him he's got that 222 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:37,959 Speaker 2: matchup every week. 223 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: Quarterback Jameis Winston raved about playing in his first snow game. 224 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 3: That was beautiful. It was beautiful for these fans. 225 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 11: Man, I appreciate everybody that came out here in these conditions, 226 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 11: and I just prayed that everyone gets home safely. All right, 227 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 11: Please celebrate, all right, but please get home safely. 228 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 3: On your touchdown, how close were they to get me into? 229 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 5: What did you see when when you got away? 230 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 11: I I saw the end zone, I felt great protection 231 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 11: and uh and I just was moving forward and uh 232 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 11: we found a way to get in there. 233 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 3: Jimmy's wits the mindset. 234 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 5: After the couple a couple of turnovers in the fourth quarter, 235 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 5: they take the lead, you guys obviously need to score. 236 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 3: What's going through your well? 237 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:25,839 Speaker 11: Uh?

We stick together, we fight 241 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 11: for each other, and we found a way. 242 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 7: James, you had talked about you had never played the 243 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 7: Steelers before, you had seen stuff on NFL films.
