This is episode two. I am merely Bo, 9 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,599 Speaker 3: he is the great Z. We are going to highlight 10 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 3: everything from our Week three win from last season against 11 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 3: the Tennessee Titans twenty seven to three. In the lead 12 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 3: up to that, my friend, what I remember specifically as 13 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,959 Speaker 3: you're coming out of the injury to Nick Chubb and 14 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 3: it was now what was kind of the feeling that week? 15 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 3: And I remember in our shows leading up to it, 16 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 3: like I didn't even know what was going to look 17 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 3: like without neck. We just weren't used to it. And 18 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:08,320 Speaker 3: that's what when I think back to this week, this 19 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 3: game week, that's what resonates to me. 20 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, And it was a tough loss, a heartbreaking loss 21 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 2: to the Steelers. You're coming in at one and one, 22 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,679 Speaker 2: the Titans were coming in at one and one as well, 23 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 2: and you're right, it was about Nick Chubb and so 24 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,479 Speaker 2: what does this look like? And I think coming out 25 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 2: of this game ultimately say, oh, they're going to put 26 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 2: the ball in Deshawn's hands more. It was our first 27 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 2: look at Jerome Ford as the starting running back and 28 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 2: he had a tough day but ended up catching a 29 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,759 Speaker 2: touchdown from Deshaun Watson in the game. But you came 30 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 2: out of it feeling like, Hey, this is going to 31 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 2: be Deshawn's team now. He just put together the best 32 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,119 Speaker 2: game that he's had as a Brown, the highest completion 33 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 2: percentage of his entire career. He'd go twenty seven of 34 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 2: thirty three for two hundred and eighty nine yards, two touchdowns, 35 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 2: no picks in a rating of one twenty three point 36 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 2: four in this one and really actually should have had 37 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 2: three passing touchdowns because they erroneously stole a touchdown from 38 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 2: him and Amari Cooper was a long one when they 39 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 2: said Amri stepped out of bounds when it was clearly 40 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 2: a yard in. They got to figure out a way 41 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 2: to rectify that in the future. But that's kind of 42 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 2: what you thought. And it was another dominant performance from 43 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 2: our defense after the Titans. I think we're coming off 44 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 2: of a win if I'm not mistaken, and just completely 45 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 2: shut them down. Tannehill had one hundred and four yards 46 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 2: passing four yards in attempt sacked five times, Derrick Henry 47 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 2: eleven carries for twenty yards. As a team, they ran 48 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 2: fifteen times for twenty six one point seven a pop. 49 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 2: Was just dominant. D Watson looked great. He hit Amari 50 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 2: late for a touchdown to Mario ad seven for one 51 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 2: sixteen and a touchdown in the game, and you're like, Okay, 52 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 2: things are looking pretty good, and the Ravens would be 53 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,640 Speaker 2: coming to town the following week, and we would know 54 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 2: that nothing would be the same. Really, you lose Nick 55 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 2: Chubb and then all of a sudden, Watson plays his 56 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 2: best game, no indication there's anything wrong, and then he's 57 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 2: out the following week. But it was another good home win. 58 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 2: It was easy, It was dominant, and you said, Okay, 59 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 2: this team looks pretty good, and you said, oh, here 60 00:02:58,280 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 2: the Shawn's coming back. 61 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 3: The anxiety you felt leading into it, juxtapposed to what 62 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 3: you felt coming out of it couldn't have been more different. Yeah, this, 63 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 3: I mean Watson was twenty seven to thirty three in 64 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 3: this game for two eighty nine, and I remember you 65 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 3: and I and I know we're going to play a 66 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 3: portion of our victory Monday show from that day. We 67 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 3: lamented the fact of what could have been. I mean, 68 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 3: this could have been a three hundred and three ben 69 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 3: twenty eight. Twenty eight to thirty four for three eighty 70 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 3: three is what it should have been. So it would 71 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 3: have been one of those WHOA games. But this was 72 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 3: really the first start to finish game with the Shawn 73 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 3: where we were. 74 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 2: Like, that's the guy. 75 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 3: Yep, that's who you traded for. 76 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 2: That's what he's all about. 77 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 3: Because the year before was uneven, the suspension, all of it. 78 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 3: No Nick Chubb, he had to be great. He was great, 79 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 3: lean on him, makes all the throws. As we alluded to, 80 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 3: it could have been even better. But you're coming out 81 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 3: of this game going like this is a very different 82 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 3: Cleveland Browns team. But we got a guy at quarterback 83 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 3: and we can go. That was the feeling coming out. 84 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I don't know if you remember, he throws 85 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 2: the touchdown to Amari Cooper with about six and a 86 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 2: half minutes ago, forty three yard are for the touchdown, 87 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 2: and I remember the scene of him going the sidelines 88 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 2: and he and Stefancy like jumping in the air and 89 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 2: kind of like chest bumping, and you're like they love 90 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 2: each other. This thing's going, We're ready to roll. And 91 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 2: unfortunately we would know that would not go on to 92 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 2: be the case. Jerome Ford did score twice in this game, 93 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 2: three yard run, a nineteen yard catch, but really struggled. 94 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 2: It was really coming out of it. You're like, Okay, 95 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 2: Deshaun's back, it's his team now, and oh, by the way, 96 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 2: our defense is awesome, and Miles Garrett's going to be 97 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 2: the defensive player of the year. He in this game 98 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 2: he had three and a half sacks, three tackles for 99 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 2: a loss in five quarterback hits as he constantly just 100 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 2: harassed Ryan Tannel. If I'm not mistaken, this is also 101 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 2: the game where he went over the left side and 102 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 2: the two tight ends followed him, and then he ran 103 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 2: back to the right side and the two tight ends 104 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,679 Speaker 2: follow him, and he was just kind of messing around 105 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 2: with him and joking with him. But yeah, this was 106 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 2: a domination, and you know, in these victory Fridays, you're 107 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 2: going to see some games it really were dominant. The 108 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,039 Speaker 2: Browns are only three and a half point favorites in 109 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 2: this game going into it, so a twenty seven to 110 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 2: three win was a beating. You know that was not 111 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 2: necessarily foreseen to that degree coming into the game. 112 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 3: We talk about Watson. You mentioned the defense just to 113 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 3: further kind of put a ribbon on that defensive dominance. 114 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 3: The Titans team passing in this game was sixty eight yards. 115 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 3: Their team rushing in the game was twenty six. 116 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,239 Speaker 2: Through the math folks, ninety four total yards. 117 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 3: It was a comp It was such a dominant display. 118 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 3: And you had seen Miles and we did this in 119 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 3: a previous victory Friday edition of the program in the 120 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 3: Cincinnati game where he was just different. He was just 121 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 3: built different. We knew that, but now this system, he 122 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 3: was fully formed. And then this was another taste of that, 123 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 3: and you thought, my god, is this Are we going 124 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 3: to get twenty. 125 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,039 Speaker 2: Four sacks out of this guy? 126 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 4: Like? 127 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 3: What's it play? It kind of felt like that did 128 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 3: that time. He was so dominant and the defense was 129 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 3: so dominant. This is when you started to realize the 130 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 3: Burrow won because the weather was bad and he was 131 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,600 Speaker 3: coming off of injury. But this was like, oh, we're 132 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:06,679 Speaker 3: gonna suffocate people. 133 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're absolutely. I mean, listen to some of these stats. 134 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 2: The Browns gained twenty three first downs in this game. 135 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 2: The Titans had six. Jeez, they were two of twelve 136 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 2: on third down. He started to see us, you know, 137 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 2: the number one third down defense, and it hissed becoming 138 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 2: a historically good third down defense. They had forty five plays. 139 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 2: The Browns had sixty seven on offense. Our sixty seven 140 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 2: plays netted three hundred and forty one yards and five 141 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 2: point one yards a carry a play. I'm sorry, five 142 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 2: point one yards to play. The other thing is think 143 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 2: about nine possessions. Sixty seven plays nine times seven is 144 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 2: sixty three, so you're at like seven and a half 145 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 2: plays per drive the Browns average. The Titans had ten 146 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 2: drives forty five plays, ninety four yards. They averaged nine 147 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 2: yards a drive. The Browns average almost forty yards a 148 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 2: drive for their nine I mean, you talk about a 149 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 2: complete domination of a football team. Two point one yards 150 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 2: per play for the Titans, five point one for the Browns. 151 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 2: And that's how you put a beating on a team 152 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,239 Speaker 2: that you know, under Mike Vrabel was a perennial playoff 153 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 2: team and now Mike Vrabel is here, so he likes 154 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 2: something he saw in that game. The Browns obviously have 155 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 2: a great amount of respect for him, and now he's 156 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 2: in the mix. But yeah, this was a game that 157 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 2: you wanted. You were like, we need to see DeShawn 158 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 2: carry us, we need to be about to Shawn in 159 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 2: this defense, and both of those things delivered, and you 160 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 2: thought the stage was going to be set for an 161 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 2: epic showdown with the Ravens Week four at home, and 162 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: it really felt like this team was going to be 163 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 2: rocking because you knew you had to win. It was 164 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 2: a must win too, Yeah, because it was Ravens Week four, 165 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 2: Bye Week five, Niners Week six. 166 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, I had to have it. 167 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 2: You had to have it. And this team went out 168 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 2: and I thought delivered an incredible game and an incredible performance. 169 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 3: There's one other factor in this one, Kareem Hunt. He 170 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 3: was back with us because of the Chub injury, and 171 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 3: so he was back. Statistically it's not there, but the 172 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 3: first time he ran out onto the field totally and 173 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 3: what he meant to the fan base, it was almost 174 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 3: like my misremembering, wasn't didn't he have like a Chubb 175 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 3: T shirt on did he wear a chub of the 176 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 3: pre game yep. Yeah, and so like when he ran 177 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:20,559 Speaker 3: out like almost in hell and his brothers in place 178 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 3: of his brother. I mean, the emotion of that was incredible, 179 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 3: that part of it, And there was no way before that. 180 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 3: I mean it took the chub injury for him to ever. 181 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 3: You never would have thought that. Yeah, and he came 182 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 3: back and then had this really cool role that ended 183 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 3: up being throughout the season, the short yardage, touchdown back 184 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 3: guy and heartbeat guy and and the way that he's received. 185 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 3: I'll just I won't forget that part of it because 186 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,719 Speaker 3: that was such an emotional week and to see him back, 187 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 3: it was like, Okay, well we. 188 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 2: Got so beloved, got the passion, all of it. He 189 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 2: did five carries thirteen yards, two catches for twenty two yards. 190 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 2: But yeah, you're right. He ended up playing a huge 191 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 2: role for the Browns this season, and this was his ABU. 192 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 2: And you know, Kareem Hunt. You think about all the 193 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 2: good years that he had in Kansas City, all the 194 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 2: good years he had with US. Set a career high 195 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 2: with nine rushing touchdowns last year. Incredible when you think 196 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 2: about it. So, yeah, you're right, that's it. That was 197 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 2: a nice emotional piece, Gibbey, if I have it right, 198 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 2: that was a Chris Rose. That was Chris Rose's first 199 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 2: win in the booth. It was I think it might 200 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,719 Speaker 2: have been his only one. Well I wasn't gonna say that, 201 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 2: but it was no, no, no, no, it was a win. 202 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 4: Every time we got to work with him, right, Yeah, 203 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 4: he was like, are you sure you want me? You 204 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 4: don't have a great I'm like, yeah, we want you, 205 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 4: and you're doing just fine. 206 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 2: And the first play, I mean, it's something he'd been 207 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 2: dreaming about since he was a child. Yeah, being the 208 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 2: play by play voice of the Cleveland Browns. And the 209 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 2: first play he ever called was a pick six for 210 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 2: the Steelers. 211 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:51,439 Speaker 5: Not great. 212 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,079 Speaker 3: Yeah that and then. 213 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, so this was this was good. It was a yeah, 214 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 2: big win all right. 215 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 3: On the program today, mj sits down with Nathan and 216 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 3: Gerard from the Kevin Stefanski Show from this week.

I mean, there's no way to 247 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 2: say it devastating with the loss of Nick Chubb. Obviously, 248 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:48,599 Speaker 2: game on offense, you turn it over four times, you 249 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 2: feel like probably snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. 250 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 2: But in the NFL, the machine moves on. Here, come 251 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 2: to Tennessee, Titans to town. How did you guys kind 252 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 2: of take that flush at learn from it and then 253 00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 2: get ready to get back to work. 254 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it starts with learning from it. You know, 255 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 6: you watch the tape and and we had a short 256 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 6: week this week, so we couldn't get into it as 257 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 6: much as as possible. But you know, I know, coach Callaian, 258 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 6: Coach Slafanski, we dug into every play we could and 259 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 6: try and learn from it. The defense played lights out, 260 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 6: you know, and they gave us a chance to win, 261 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 6: and we obviously you know, didn't do enough on offense. 262 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 6: But but you learn from those and you get get 263 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 6: past it because you know, Tennessee has a great defensive 264 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 6: front at least as far as the line goes. You know, 265 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 6: we know we have a big challenge for us, so 266 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 6: we're focused on that. And I know Nick, you know, 267 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 6: that was tough for everybody, but I know Nick would 268 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 6: want us to get back to work and truly focus 269 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 6: on the task at hand and trying to get a win. 270 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 6: You know, I heard he was, you know, he was 271 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 6: obviously distressed, but he was watching the game on his phone, 272 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 6: you know, when he was going through all his tests 273 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,079 Speaker 6: and everything like that, because he just cares about getting 274 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 6: the win. So for us, it was, you know, tough. 275 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 6: We learned from it, but but we're ready to go 276 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 6: against Tennessee. 277 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 1: Now. 278 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 2: How helpful is it for you guys as an offensive 279 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 2: line to be facing a front that is at least 280 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 2: stylistically similar. They'll line up and many times with you know, 281 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 2: the five man front of the three four that odd front. 282 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 2: How helpful is it that you guys kind of got 283 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 2: that rep last week to now take to this game 284 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 2: against Tennessee. 285 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, the Bengals and Pittsburgh kind of a similar base front. 286 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 6: Same with Baltimore. Really it's kind of an AFC North 287 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 6: besides the Browns, So we get a little mix of that, 288 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 6: and Tennessee does a lot too. They have they have 289 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,440 Speaker 6: some you know, chess pieces over there that they can 290 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,959 Speaker 6: move some guys around. Autrey and Simmons and and Key 291 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 6: and Landry, they all kind of move around, especially in 292 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 6: passing situation. So it's a huge challenge, but at least 293 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,319 Speaker 6: we have the base install you know, is pretty similar 294 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 6: in that sense. 295 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 2: So talk about those guys, Simmons Autry, they're one of 296 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 2: the two tandem three tantems in the NFL where both 297 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:34,839 Speaker 2: have a sack in each of the first two games 298 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 2: this season on the interior and then you got the 299 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 2: guys on the outside. But when you have those guys 300 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 2: on the interior that are so tough, what challenges that present. 301 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, they're dynamic and it's not just like powered speed. 302 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 6: I think the best Russians league have power and speed, 303 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,719 Speaker 6: and they both do have that, and they both keep 304 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,559 Speaker 6: getting better, which is you know, tell they're well coached, 305 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,319 Speaker 6: and you know they have that work ethic, but it's 306 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 6: tough because if they pushed the pocket, it helps out 307 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 6: those guys on the edge too because they can get 308 00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 6: around the edge a little bit shorter. But for us, 309 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 6: it's a big We understand what's in front of us, 310 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 6: and we have a lot of respect for their game 311 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 6: and we're excited to go go out there in battle. 312 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 2: So I saw this crazy stat over their last seventeen games, 313 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 2: they're giving up sixty four point six yards per game 314 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 2: on the ground and two point nine yards per carry. 315 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 2: That is the best seventeen game stretch in NFL history. 316 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 2: As a run defense, what is it about their run 317 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 2: defense that you see on tape Because we do like 318 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 2: to run the ball and run it effectively. That jumps 319 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 2: out at you. 320 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, they you know, their sound in their assignment, but 321 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 6: they also take like chances. You know, certain guys have 322 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 6: the ability. You know, it's kind of like the Aaron 323 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 6: Donald rule. It's like, hey, everybody keep their gap unless 324 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 6: you make the play, you know, And they have a 325 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 6: few guys that can you know, back door some plays 326 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 6: and linebackers that run through and a very very strong scheme. 327 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 6: You know, it comes from the Patriots, you know, that 328 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 6: scheme with variable and everything. But they just do a 329 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 6: good job in that. And I think teams, you know, 330 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 6: feel like, hey, we can try and take a shot 331 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 6: or try and do that, so it gets them out 332 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 6: of it. But they run the ball well on offense, 333 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 6: and they stopped to run. I think they're just used 334 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 6: to going against in practice, and it's one of their mainstays. 335 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 2: No doubt about it, all right. You know, on the 336 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 2: outside in the NFL, it is such a roller coaster. 337 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 2: The highs are so high. You win Week one, Oh 338 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 2: my goodness, the Browns are going to Super Bowl. You 339 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 2: lose Week two, Oh my god. It's complete chaos outside. 340 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 2: Inside it feels like you guys, and maybe if you've 341 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 2: added some veterans like thorn Hill and McLoud who won 342 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 2: Super Bowls, but it felt like you guys were very steady. 343 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 2: It's unfortunate. Yeah, you let one get away. You felt 344 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 2: like you should have had. But now we've got to 345 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 2: get onto the business and not ride that roller coaster. 346 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, And Coach Fantasy talks about that, you don't want 347 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 6: to ride the roller coaster ups and downs. And I 348 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 6: try and tell the young guys I'm like, that's why 349 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 6: you gotta stay off the social media in season and stuff, because, 350 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 6: like you said, it's Super Bowl or it's the worst 351 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 6: team in the league. There's no one between. So we 352 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 6: try and say, folks on the task at hand. I 353 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 6: think everybody emotionally was a little hurt for Chubb more 354 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 6: than anything in that game. And obviously we didn't pull 355 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 6: it off. But the guys are focused, you know, we 356 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 6: have a good, good focus, and like you said, we 357 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 6: have some good vets and guys that have been around 358 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 6: that are like, hey, it's a long season. We have 359 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 6: fifteen more of these, we gotta be. 360 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 7: Ready to play. 361 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, get cream huntback. Will was it like to see 362 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 2: him coming and his energy back in here and kind 363 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 2: of just felt like the perfect signing, right. He was 364 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 2: the one that the most out of Nick Chubb from 365 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 2: a personality standpoint, and now he's here playing for his 366 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 2: hometown team, playing for his best friend. 367 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, it was great to see him. You know, he 368 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 6: looks lean to me, like, looks good, looks like he's 369 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 6: moving really well, you know, And it was exciting to 370 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 6: have him back in the room because I think he 371 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 6: brings that sparkan offense sometimes when we're out there, you 372 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 6: need that guy that's gonna uh. 373 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 2: Break eighty tackles and yes, you. 374 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 6: Know first carry, he's going to go and try and 375 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 6: hit somebody, and so that's something that we appreciate and 376 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 6: we're really happy to have him back. 377 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 2: I'd suck real quickly about the line. You know, at 378 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 2: times it's been excellent. At other times we've had problems, 379 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 2: and we saw that certainly manifest itself. You know, as 380 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 2: a group coming together. How do you feel like you 381 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 2: guys are doing, especially that you've slid in a rookie 382 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 2: who I thought had quite a strong accounting himself against 383 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 2: probably the toughest debut you could have in the league 384 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 2: since Miles Garrett on our team against t J. Watt. 385 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, it was uh, you know, Dewan came in and 386 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 6: he really played hard and fought really like you said, 387 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 6: fought really well against TJ. Watt and in a tough environment. 388 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 6: I think for us it's a consistenty thing because there are, 389 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 6: like you said, really high levels and we've ran the 390 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 6: ball really well the first two weeks. But an NFL 391 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 6: A line is how consists can you be on a 392 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 6: snapstat basis, And there's a couple times where we you know, 393 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 6: let that down as a group, and so we're really 394 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,680 Speaker 6: trying to fix that and understand that, like, hey, there's 395 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,439 Speaker 6: four to eight plays in a game that determine if 396 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 6: we win or lose, and we never know when there's 397 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 6: going to happen. So we got to be focused on 398 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 6: each and every snap to you know, get our jobs done. 399 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 4: From the pregame to the game itself, the Browns offense 400 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 4: would struggle in its first three possessions two, three, and ounce, 401 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 4: followed by this fumble at their own seventeen yard line 402 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 4: that would have the Browns defense with their backs to 403 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 4: the wall. 404 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 8: Early empty backfield for Watson in the shotgun. Two receivers right, 405 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 8: three to his left. Here on second and eight, Watson 406 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:44,640 Speaker 8: barking out the signals, Titans just rushing four. Watson looking right, 407 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 8: throwing right, connecting with more and he gets wrapped up 408 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 8: and he loses the football. It's bouncing around. It is 409 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,679 Speaker 8: picked up by Tennessee. Sean Murphy Bunting has collected it 410 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 8: and yet another costly turnover, and the Titans will have 411 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 8: it first and ten at the Cleveland eighteen. 412 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 2: Sean Murphy bunning that is his second force fumble on 413 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 2: the season. He did it earlier in the year, and 414 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 2: so you've got to be prepared for that. This Browns 415 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 2: team cannot get out of its own way on offense. 416 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 2: That is the seventh giveaway this season, Chris, and you said, 417 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 2: this is an important football game. It's gotta be clean. 418 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,400 Speaker 2: The Browns all time thirteen and two with Kevin Stefancie 419 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 2: as their coach. When they don't turn it over. They 420 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 2: have now turned it over in all. 421 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 8: Three games this season, and this one critical because Tennessee 422 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 8: starts to drive in the Browns red zone. It'll be 423 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 8: the first time of all year an opponent has taken 424 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:38,719 Speaker 8: a snap inside the Cleveland twenty Tannehill with Henry in 425 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 8: the backfield, Tannehill barking signals now backing up into the 426 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 8: shotgun with two receivers to his right first and ten. 427 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 8: At the seventeen, Tannehill hands it off to Henry swallow 428 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 8: it up loss on the play as Miles Garrett is there. 429 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 2: The Browns had won two, three, four, five, six, seven 430 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 2: guys on the line of scrimmage. Miles garretts that gap, 431 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,879 Speaker 2: got inside of the tight end and made the big play. 432 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 2: Westco tried to get a block on him, couldn't and 433 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 2: he blew that one up in the backfield. This defense 434 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 2: is dominan. It's like offense, just get out of the way, 435 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 2: be productive, and just don't turn the football over. The 436 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:15,880 Speaker 2: drives have to end with a kick. 437 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:18,880 Speaker 8: Loss of three back to the twenty yard line. So 438 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 8: second and thirteen, two receivers right, one to the left, 439 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 8: Tannehill in the gun with Henry in the backfield. Tannehill 440 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 8: looks left, gets pressured in. The ball is clicked out 441 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 8: of the air and it is bound on the ground. 442 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 8: Any call is it incomplete or a football? The referee 443 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 8: said it was a fumble and the ball danced around 444 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 8: as Henry fell on it at the twenty four Miles 445 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 8: Garrett sent it flying airward and it went right to 446 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 8: Derrick Henry on the right side. 447 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 2: I mean, you think about the way the ball has 448 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 2: bounced against the Cleveland Browns in Pittsburgh, and there Miles 449 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,640 Speaker 2: beats Dillard around the corner, gets the sack strip fumble. 450 00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 2: The Browns had two shots at it. Once it bounce 451 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 2: up Henry and then he kind of put it on 452 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 2: the grand I thought Grant Delpin had a chance to 453 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 2: go down and get it, but was not able to 454 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 2: do so. 455 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 8: And with that, it is the end of the first quarter. 456 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 8: The Titans are driving. This place is rocking, and your 457 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 8: Browns have a three to nothing lead. You are listening 458 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 8: to the University Hospitals Cleveland Browns Radio Network. Back at 459 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 8: Cleveland Browns Stadium, Browns with a three nothing lead over 460 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:29,159 Speaker 8: the Tennessee Titans alongside Nathan Zakura and Super Bowl champions 461 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 8: Drag Cherry, I am Chris Rose filling in for the 462 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 8: legendary Jim Donovan. Tennessee with the ball at the Cleveland 463 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 8: twenty four after a forced turnover. It is third and seventeen, 464 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 8: three receivers to the left. Tannahill in the shotgun. Titans 465 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,359 Speaker 8: have to get the ball down to the Cleveland seven 466 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 8: for the first first down of the game, and they're 467 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 8: gonna set up a screen Chigo pop quote. He gets 468 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 8: nailed by Denzel Ward and they call him down at 469 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 8: the twenty six, so it's actually a loss of two 470 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:02,360 Speaker 8: on the play. This brown defense unbelievable. They have allowed 471 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 8: two total yards so far, two yards, no first downs, 472 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 8: three to three and outs. Even put in a bad 473 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 8: situation there by the Browns offense. 474 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,600 Speaker 2: They hold up again, Jim swartzays, this group flying around, 475 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 2: it's fun to watch offense take care of the ball. Well, 476 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:19,680 Speaker 2: now it's up to Nick Folk. 477 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 8: You're reigning AFC Special Teams Player of the Week after 478 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 8: nailing a game winner against the Chargers last week in overtime. 479 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 8: This one from forty four yards out off the right hash. 480 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 8: The snap is good, the hold is good, the kick 481 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 8: is good. The sixteen year Vett has tied the game 482 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 8: at three, fourteen to fourteen to go in the first half. 483 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 4: It would be a statement stand for the vaunted Browns defense, 484 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 4: and it would be all the points the Titans would 485 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 4: score that day in Cleveland Browns Stadium.

So 584 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 9: when we got there on Sunday, I know the guy 585 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 9: to the left and to the right of me, they're 586 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 9: gonna give it, give it at all. 587 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:18,919 Speaker 7: So now you know, I'm gona make sure I do 588 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 7: the same, you. 589 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 9: Know, and you know that's that's an unbreakable bond. 590 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 10: And then go along with that. I see you guys 591 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 10: doing certain things. You have routines and rituals that you 592 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,919 Speaker 10: do after good play. Who came up with this idea 593 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 10: that before the game even starts? You guys who just 594 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 10: slide back take a jay on the defensive side of 595 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 10: the ball. 596 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,399 Speaker 7: It's a Dais Smith. That's his thing. That's one of 597 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 7: his things. I get that to him. 598 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,880 Speaker 10: So does it rotate each week?

So that's how that's how I 603 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 9: entirely going into the game. You know, so when we 604 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 9: get our first turnout, we're gonna do this. Get our 605 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 9: second turnover, we're gonna do is celebrated. So, you know, 606 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,399 Speaker 9: just going into the game looking forward to making plays 607 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 9: and celebrating. You know, I would say that's something you know, 608 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,800 Speaker 9: Jim Shorts brought to this defense man, just that standard 609 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 9: and just that bad. 610 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 7: Assure and the slag and the passion having flun So 611 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 7: that's what we do. 612 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 2: I feel like it has it's unlocked a lot of 613 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 2: everybody's everybody's allowed to show their personality and then back 614 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 2: it up with their play. You know, one thing I 615 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 2: wanted to ask you about Monday night against the Steelers. 616 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 2: Tough outcome, right, that was a game that the Browns 617 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 2: should have won they did not. Do you get a 618 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 2: sense that having guys like a jan Thornhill who's been 619 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 2: to the Super Bowl, won Super Bowls, all of that, 620 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 2: Rodney McLeod, some of these veterans, did you notice anything 621 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 2: different kind of coming out of the game where they're like, look, 622 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 2: it's one game. You know, And we were talking earlier 623 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 2: last year the Chiefs lost to the Colts in Week 624 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:46,959 Speaker 2: three last year, big upset and they going to win 625 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 2: the super Bowl. But just in it's one game. Let's 626 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 2: put it behind us. Because then you guys come out 627 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 2: and it's like there wasn't it was in the past. 628 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:54,719 Speaker 2: It was a whole new thing, and you guys are 629 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 2: so locked in. 630 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 9: Yeah, so that's that mentality, you know, just one play 631 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 9: one day, you know, no opponent, you know, you just 632 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,399 Speaker 9: gotta flush it. You know, we take our wins just 633 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 9: like we take our ls. You know, we take our 634 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 9: els just like we take our wins. So at the 635 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 9: end of the day, we watched the film clean it up. 636 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 9: But you know, it's the next opponent next Sunday, you know. So, yeah, 637 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:18,719 Speaker 9: that that that game that left a bad tation. Not well, 638 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 9: we know what team we are and we know what 639 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 9: team you know that that we're going to you know, 640 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 9: keep keep taking steps toward and yeah, so it was 641 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 9: just a game that I feel like we did drop 642 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 9: and we most champion should win that game. But you know, 643 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 9: you can't throw it on the past. We gotta keep 644 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 9: keep looking for it and keep moving. 645 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 7: No doubt. 646 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 10: And one of the things that Nathan and I both 647 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 10: commonly hear is. 648 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 8: Can they sustain it? 649 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 7: Can they keep it going? 650 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 10: And one of the things that I appreciate about your game, 651 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 10: and this is just your second year in the league, 652 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 10: but I love your presence and how you approach it, 653 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 10: and I think you figured it out. But how do 654 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 10: you stay humble having so much success? And Nathan just 655 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 10: pointing out the numbers because it's clear and evident that 656 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 10: you're balling, But how do you stay on the how 657 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 10: do you keep the mentality as an individual and then 658 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 10: as a defense. Today we have not arrived yet and 659 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 10: we still got a lot to accomplish. 660 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 7: It's just week three, I mean, well just week before now. 661 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 9: Honestly, there's a lot of stuff on film and when 662 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 9: we cut on, you know that. 663 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 7: We might not do right. 664 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 9: So it's a lot of things that we still have 665 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 9: to you know, work on.

Here's Cleveland's own Chris 710 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 4: Rose alongside Nathan and Gerrod calling this Brown scoring drive 711 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 4: that would end up being all the points the Browns 712 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 4: needed that day to beat the Titans, a scoring drive 713 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 4: that would culminate with Deshaun Watson finding Jerome Ford for 714 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 4: this second quarter touchdown. 715 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 8: Brown's next possession, Watson play fake, swings it out to 716 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 8: the left side in Joku. He's got a one on 717 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 8: one against the Moni hooker and drags him for about 718 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 8: five yards up to the thirty one. 719 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, Chiefs first catch today gets a nice EID and 720 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 2: so far counts the Fansy's had a good job with 721 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 2: what I call those drive starters, getting six seven eight 722 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 2: on the first play of the drive. And so what 723 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 2: we've done typically is run it here on second down 724 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 2: keV no success and then have you get to find 725 00:31:57,920 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 2: ourselves in third downs. So let's see if maybe a 726 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,960 Speaker 2: play action here an opportunity to maybe take a shot 727 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 2: down the field. 728 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 8: Watson will have two receivers to his left and one 729 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 8: to the right, DPJ now in motion from left to right. 730 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 8: His Kareem Hunt is in the backfield. Watson under center 731 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 8: hands it off to Hunt. He's got a little burst 732 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 8: up to the thirty five. He's gonna get a first 733 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 8: down before he is thrown back by Jack Gibbons. 734 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 2: But move those chains. Thanks to the Cleveland native, you 735 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 2: finally got him into a little bit of a lighter box. 736 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 2: The way that the Browns had that formation spread out, 737 00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 2: they only had six in the box. That's you run against. 738 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 2: That those good numbers to run against for the Browns 739 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 2: found to lay in Kareem Hunt with that classic bowling 740 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 2: ball running style for the big first. 741 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 8: Down ball at the Cleveland thirty five on the right, 742 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:43,479 Speaker 8: Hash three receivers DPJ, Moore and n Joku are to 743 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 8: the Cooper to the right. Harrison Bryant the blocking back 744 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 8: in the backfield next to Watson, who is in the 745 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 8: shotgun first and ten for Cleveland. The snap, Watson looks right, 746 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 8: looks for Cooper he catches it at the forty one, 747 00:32:56,760 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 8: wrapped up there in front of the Titans bench gain 748 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 8: a six man. 749 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 2: Cooper did a good job, just a quick little stop 750 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 2: rout on the outside, had some tight coverage there from 751 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 2: Sean Murphy. Bunning caught it and then wisely wrapped that 752 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 2: ball up because you can see Sean Murphy Bunning again 753 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 2: trying to rip it out like he did against Elijah. 754 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 2: You smell a deep ball. At some point, it's gotta 755 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 2: be I mean, at some point you have to threaten 756 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 2: this defense vertically. You know, Jim Schwartz made that great 757 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 2: joke about ninety and seventy one. Right now, we're very ninety. 758 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 2: We're a lot of east west short passes. You got 759 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 2: to test them over the top at some point. 760 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 8: Second and a long four Watson under center with Ford 761 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 8: in the backfield, three receivers left, play fake Watson looking downfield, 762 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 8: pressured forced left on the run, takes a stutter step 763 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 8: and it's gonna throw it away. It was Jack Gibbons 764 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 8: who chased Watson out of bounds, So that was it. 765 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 2: That was the shot. Play max protect two man route, 766 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 2: but they got some pressure there coming off to the edge. 767 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 2: Roger McCreary that Nickel actually got past Jedrick Wills and 768 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 2: forced Watson to have to get the timing outside, and 769 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 2: he did a good job getting his shoulders squares. We 770 00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:58,960 Speaker 2: could just throw that away since he wasn't gonna be 771 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 2: able to outrun Gibbons side. 772 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 8: Browns have to get to their own forty five. Just 773 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 8: on the other side of the forty five for another 774 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:11,279 Speaker 8: first down. People's Jones lines up left, Cooper to the right, 775 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,879 Speaker 8: Watson in the shotgun, with Ford in the backfield, More 776 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:16,440 Speaker 8: in the slot to the left. 777 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:19,360 Speaker 2: Third and four and a half. 778 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:22,360 Speaker 8: Watson gets the snap, looks right, throws to Cooper and 779 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 8: he was tangled with John Murphy Bunning. Here comes a 780 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:28,359 Speaker 8: flag and they're gonna call Murphy Bunning for at least 781 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:28,879 Speaker 8: a hole. 782 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 2: Hey had him by the jersey, by both shoulder pads 783 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 2: as though they were blocking one another. There, that's what 784 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 2: the Browns. Good job. He had pressman coverage one on 785 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:43,879 Speaker 2: one on the outside defens number zero. Well, of course, 786 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:45,400 Speaker 2: it's battle all about. 787 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:51,239 Speaker 8: It first down, so that is gonna be pass interference 788 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 8: and an automatic first down they had. 789 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:57,040 Speaker 2: It'll move the ball right around midfield there, I think 790 00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 2: on the Browns forty nine. As they get the full 791 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,839 Speaker 2: length of that penalty, Mic Frabele arguing, you can touch 792 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 2: him inside of five yards and once that ball's in 793 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:05,720 Speaker 2: the air, he has his hands around his back, around 794 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,240 Speaker 2: both shoulder pats. That's an obvious play. Well, they cried about. 795 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 8: So the ball first in ten at the Cleveland forty nine. 796 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:15,560 Speaker 8: Watson in the shotgun with two tight ends to his right, 797 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 8: fake handoff, he looks right, he gets pressured. 798 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:19,360 Speaker 2: Watson is gonna. 799 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 8: He throws it backward and more is gonna have to 800 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:23,919 Speaker 8: scrip up the ball. He does, and this is gonna 801 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 8: be a disastrous play as the Browns lose sixteen yards 802 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 8: as Deshaun Watson threw the ball backward and it got 803 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:32,959 Speaker 8: past Elijah Moore. 804 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:37,799 Speaker 2: What happened? That was insane. That was insane. That was 805 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:41,400 Speaker 2: in the middle. He saw Elijah Moore open, throws it backwards, 806 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 2: misses him. That was complete chaos. And that's what pressure 807 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 2: does in the NFL. They weren't able to pick up 808 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 2: the blitzer as they were able to get through, Aziz 809 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,839 Speaker 2: al Shair got through and then Watson inexplicably. I mean, 810 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 2: we're very lucky that all that was was an absurdly 811 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:57,280 Speaker 2: negative play. 812 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 8: This place is a buzz They can't believe what they 813 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 8: just saw. Uh, it's second and about a third of 814 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 8: the field. Watson in the shotgun fake handoff looks deep 815 00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:11,760 Speaker 8: downfield down the left side, overshoots Cooper and there's. 816 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 2: A play got Christian Fulton. So somehow the Browns on. 817 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:19,000 Speaker 8: Second and twenty six are gonna get a first down. 818 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,800 Speaker 8: There's also a flag in the backfield next to Watson 819 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 8: who got nailed. 820 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 2: In the backfield. Yeah, I think that's gonna be a 821 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 2: late hit. And the trainers are out to check on Watson, 822 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,400 Speaker 2: who pounded the ground after he got up, and he 823 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,759 Speaker 2: looks like he is heading to the sideline right now. 824 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 8: Well, if that's the case, then the Browns either have 825 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 8: to take a time out or you're gonna see the 826 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:41,320 Speaker 8: NFL debut of Dorian Thompson Robinson. 827 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:41,839 Speaker 7: Yeah. 828 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 2: And then so that seems to me the way that 829 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:45,919 Speaker 2: the immediacy of that that that was something buzzed down. 830 00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 2: So you're gonna get the big penalty of Maari Cooper 831 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 2: had a step, it was a good ball, the defense 832 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:54,719 Speaker 2: personal foul rough in the passer defenseman to forty nine 833 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:59,080 Speaker 2: up piles alive Dawson and Ferris defense number twenty six 834 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 2: ball and pushed. 835 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 4: This squattle of file aut about it first round. 836 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 8: Okay, so ard Key gets the roughing the passer, and 837 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 8: then Christian Fulton gets called for fast interference. 838 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 10: And now. 839 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:14,759 Speaker 8: Actually Deshaun Watson apparently has gotten cleared, has come back 840 00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 8: into the game as Dorian Thompson Robinson had trotted on 841 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 8: to the field. 842 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what that was about three steps by 843 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 2: arden Key and a fourarm shiver. I'm confused. Why isn't 844 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 2: that added on to the end of this play. 845 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 8: The ball's at the Tennessee thirty, Watson is under center, 846 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,359 Speaker 8: Ford is in the backfield. Nick Harrison extra tight end 847 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 8: coming in motion. Watson rolls left, has some pressure, he's 848 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:38,839 Speaker 8: looking down field, and he just throws it away before 849 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 8: he gets nailed by Gibbons again. But this has been 850 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 8: some crazy stuff that's gone on here the last ninety 851 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:46,440 Speaker 8: second s. 852 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 9: It has. 853 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 2: Watson did a great job to get away from arden Key. 854 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 2: There nobody's getting opened down the field. The separation right there, 855 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 2: you had an opportunity. They were looking for a shot play. 856 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:57,759 Speaker 2: There wasn't anywhere to go with the ball. But yes, 857 00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 2: this has been insane. Penalties, penalties, late hits, him throwing 858 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 2: the ball backwards. Nothing seems easy right now. It does 859 00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,959 Speaker 2: not seem to be natural or in rhythm. And yet 860 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 2: you're at their thirty with a chance to put some 861 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 2: more points on the board. 862 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:14,319 Speaker 8: Watson is going to be in the backfield by himself here, 863 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,839 Speaker 8: two receivers left, three to the right on second and ten, 864 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:22,320 Speaker 8: ball at the Tennessee thirty yard line. Watson looking left, 865 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 8: plenty of time, throws across him. It'll caught by more 866 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 8: at the twenty one yard line. It's gonna be about 867 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 8: a half yard shy of the first down. 868 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 2: That's what you want to see, just standing in the pocket, 869 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:40,920 Speaker 2: allowing the play to unfold, deliberating it accurately, not panicking, 870 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:44,799 Speaker 2: not looking to escape. Good job by Deshaun Watson right there. 871 00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,320 Speaker 2: That was to me a very encouraging play. Third and 872 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 2: one with under ten forty five to go here in 873 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 2: the first half. 874 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:55,360 Speaker 8: Harrison Bryant lining up under center, He's gonna run it 875 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,400 Speaker 8: himself and push forward for the first down. As Watson 876 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:02,440 Speaker 8: was lined up in the backfield him. Wow, and that 877 00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 8: was interesting. And so the Browns have now entered the 878 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:08,320 Speaker 8: mids red zone mids trew Sicilian pasta sauce, best ingredients, 879 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:10,200 Speaker 8: best quality, best taste. 880 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:13,359 Speaker 2: So we asked last why aren't we sneaking the ball? 881 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:15,600 Speaker 2: Why aren't the brown sneaking it? Well, they said we're 882 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 2: going to sneak it. Last year Jacoby Brissett was our sneaker. 883 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:21,359 Speaker 2: Now maybe Harrison Bryant taking over that role. Gets the snap. 884 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 2: He's a big, strong guy, got low, got the first down. 885 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 2: An important play there as Deshaun Watson. You coul Tell 886 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 2: still trying to catch his breath after some of these 887 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:28,279 Speaker 2: big hits. 888 00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 8: But Watson is in an empty backfield, two receivers right, 889 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 8: two receivers left, first and ten at the Tennessee twenty 890 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 8: on the right hatch. He gets the snap. Watson looking 891 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:40,919 Speaker 8: down on the left side, He's got a wide open drum. 892 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 2: The Browns going to empty. Jerome Ford, who had run 893 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:53,319 Speaker 2: a slant out of that exact look every single time 894 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 2: against the Pittsburgh Steelers last week, So when it comes 895 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:57,239 Speaker 2: to the fancy new he says, we're gonna run the 896 00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 2: slug o a slant and go the corner. Heights, lose 897 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 2: his vision. Watson, perfect pass. He's now got eighteen touchdowns 898 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:06,960 Speaker 2: against the Titans in his career, and the Browns are in. 899 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:09,520 Speaker 8: The end zone, and that Brown's touchdown is presented by 900 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 8: Cross Country Mortgage, the official mortgage partner of the Cleveland Browns. 901 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 8: When it comes to financing, we always get you home. 902 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 8: Visit CCM dot com today. 903 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:21,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. So they had the linebacker out there on Ford, 904 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,360 Speaker 2: not a place he likes to be in coverage isiz 905 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:23,880 Speaker 2: Al Scherrier. 906 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:28,399 Speaker 8: Blew it Dustin Hopkins on for the pat and over 907 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:32,840 Speaker 8: end kick is good.

What's Victory Friday? 926 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:39,600 Speaker 2: You ask. 927 00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,720 Speaker 4: Over the course of the next few months, on Fridays, 928 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:45,160 Speaker 4: we will be highlighting each of the browns eleven wins 929 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:47,440 Speaker 4: from last year as we count you down to the 930 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:51,160 Speaker 4: twenty twenty four season. Today, our focus on the browns 931 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,920 Speaker 4: twenty seven to three win over then head coach Mike Vrabel, 932 00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:58,720 Speaker 4: who's now a Cleveland Browns advisor, and the Tennessee Titans. 933 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,760 Speaker 4: Kicking off our two, we feature the Browns final score 934 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,359 Speaker 4: of the game, a ten plays, sixty four yard drive 935 00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:07,720 Speaker 4: that closes out the Titans with an Amari Cooper forty 936 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:10,719 Speaker 4: three yard touchdown catch from Deshaun Watson to make the 937 00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:12,640 Speaker 4: final score twenty seven to three. 938 00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,400 Speaker 8: The Browns have been wiping the field with the Tennessee 939 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:18,880 Speaker 8: Titans all day up twenty to three with thirteen nineteen 940 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 8: to go, Hunt gets a handoff up the middle in 941 00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 8: gains three up to the thirty nine. So now start 942 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:28,759 Speaker 8: taking the air out of the football a little bit, 943 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 8: get a couple of first downs. 944 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:33,480 Speaker 2: Shorten this game. You'll take all of your time in 945 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 2: the huddle, and just a remarkable performance by this defense. Again, 946 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,760 Speaker 2: I will reiterate the Tennessee Titans currently at three points. 947 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:43,640 Speaker 2: They came after a fumble that started in the Browns 948 00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:45,239 Speaker 2: red zone. After they stripped the lized war they went 949 00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:47,480 Speaker 2: backwards nine yards, got a field goal. That is it 950 00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:51,359 Speaker 2: as far as their offense goes second and seven ball 951 00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:52,239 Speaker 2: at the thirty nine. 952 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:55,880 Speaker 8: Two receivers left, two to the right. Hunt gets the 953 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 8: handoff off the left side, cuts it back, gets it up, 954 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:02,920 Speaker 8: spats the forty five to the first down, and here 955 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:07,279 Speaker 8: comes that angry runs for Kareem Hunt. 956 00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:09,400 Speaker 2: With all due respect to my man Kyle Brant at 957 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:12,680 Speaker 2: the NFL Network, listen at Kareem Hunt. Now that he's back. 958 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:14,320 Speaker 2: There's a good chance he ends up with that scepter 959 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:16,440 Speaker 2: at some point this year. But you love Kareem. He's 960 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:18,280 Speaker 2: the only guy gets that right arm kind of runner 961 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 2: around like he's bringing waving you home round in third base, 962 00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:23,759 Speaker 2: and you love to see it. The whirling dervish out 963 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:25,640 Speaker 2: there near the first down, and you wonder, do they 964 00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 2: go back to the Harrison Bryan sneak or do the 965 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 2: Browns just try to line up and run the football. 966 00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:31,960 Speaker 8: It is less than the yard Browns have to get 967 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,120 Speaker 8: it to the forty six. It's at the forty five 968 00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:36,640 Speaker 8: and a half. Watson in the pistol with Hunt to 969 00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:39,000 Speaker 8: his right, and here comes Harrison, Brian in motion, lines 970 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:41,320 Speaker 8: up on her center, gets the push and the shove, 971 00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 8: and it looks like enough for the first down. So 972 00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:46,920 Speaker 8: I think we're onto something here Nathan's I. 973 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:49,800 Speaker 2: Think I'm not gonna say we talked about this potentially 974 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:51,920 Speaker 2: on Brown's Daily, like let's get it, but you did 975 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,279 Speaker 2: I was we go ahead again the tight ending there 976 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:56,680 Speaker 2: and just run that sneak And now they've done it. 977 00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:58,480 Speaker 2: That won't be put on tape and teams no. And 978 00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:00,319 Speaker 2: that's what the reason they go quick, because as soon 979 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 2: as he gets under center, they know it's going to 980 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 2: be a snake. He's not dropping back and throwing a pass. Now, 981 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:05,800 Speaker 2: maybe that's a wrinkle you can add in the future 982 00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:07,759 Speaker 2: and that'll be a play that has judged very much 983 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,279 Speaker 2: so on its outcome rather than the call itself. But 984 00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 2: right now, good to have that sneak in the arsenal 985 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:13,759 Speaker 2: first down Browns. 986 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 8: Three tight end formation for the Browns, just one receiver 987 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:20,880 Speaker 8: off to the left. That's DPJ Hunt in the backfield. 988 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:23,040 Speaker 8: Watson's gonna hand it to him off the left side, 989 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:28,000 Speaker 8: spins forward, doesn't get anything as the Titans are on alert. Hey, 990 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 8: Angie makes it easier than ever to connect with skilled 991 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 8: pros to get your home projects done well, from repair 992 00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:36,279 Speaker 8: to remodel. Get started on the app, or go to 993 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:40,239 Speaker 8: Angi dot com. That is a n g I dot com. 994 00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 2: It's kind of remarkable. Theareem Hunt was not playing football 995 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 2: as of Mune. Amazing, and now he's come in. He's 996 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:48,080 Speaker 2: giving you some signature Kareem Hunt moments, and you know 997 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:50,360 Speaker 2: it's reminiscent of you know that twenty twenty season with 998 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,560 Speaker 2: Nick Chubb. In this case, jern Ford in the offense. 999 00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:54,120 Speaker 2: They kind of wear a defense down that he gets 1000 00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:56,360 Speaker 2: in there in the fourth quarter and makes some place. 1001 00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 8: Hunt to the sideline. Ford to replace him in the backfield. 1002 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:02,839 Speaker 8: Next to one on the shotgun. Two receivers right play 1003 00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:05,200 Speaker 8: fake Watson throwing it deep down the left side in 1004 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:08,960 Speaker 8: a misconnection with Cooper. Although there's a flag again, I 1005 00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:11,960 Speaker 8: think they're gonna get Christian Fulton for stopping the progress 1006 00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:12,520 Speaker 8: of Cooper. 1007 00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:16,359 Speaker 2: This is gonna be interesting, Yeah, because a Marty Cooper 1008 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:18,800 Speaker 2: was running a go route. Christian Fulton sat down like 1009 00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:21,279 Speaker 2: he was sitting in a corner a cover two and 1010 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:23,400 Speaker 2: not even acknowledging that he ran play him and just 1011 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:26,640 Speaker 2: flat out Grandis number twenty six. It's a five yard 1012 00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:29,239 Speaker 2: penalty and an automatic first down, and. 1013 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:32,360 Speaker 8: That five yard penalty pushes the ball into Tennessee territory. 1014 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:35,279 Speaker 2: That would have been a touchdown. He literally grabbed him 1015 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:37,359 Speaker 2: around the waist. Blow the whistle dead well in case 1016 00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:38,799 Speaker 2: they said he stepped out of bounds. It's a very 1017 00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,800 Speaker 2: good points same sideline, same sideline. We don't need to 1018 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:44,680 Speaker 2: pick on guys, but we're here, Nathan. Oh wow, it's 1019 00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:47,279 Speaker 2: fair to acknowledge it. There should they need to acknowledge it? 1020 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:48,680 Speaker 2: Watch the tape Death Better. 1021 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:50,680 Speaker 8: Ten thirty one to go in the game, Browns in 1022 00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,520 Speaker 8: a three tight end set as Harrison Bryant now access 1023 00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:55,279 Speaker 8: to full back in front of Jerome Ford gets the 1024 00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:58,880 Speaker 8: ball up the middle, splits the defenders, pops outside and 1025 00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 8: gets down to the forty seven yard line before he 1026 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:04,279 Speaker 8: is wrapped up by Sean Murphy Bunting, who got a 1027 00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 8: little dinged up on the plane. 1028 00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:08,480 Speaker 2: They broke about four tackles to get two yards right there. 1029 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:10,479 Speaker 2: Gave a nice steff arm, did all that he could, 1030 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:12,640 Speaker 2: but ultimately the pursuit from the Titans too much. But 1031 00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 2: this is exactly what the Browns wanted to do, you know, 1032 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:18,000 Speaker 2: to eating time off of this clock, winding it down. 1033 00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:19,720 Speaker 2: As you said, take the air out of the football. 1034 00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,719 Speaker 2: Second down and long here in Tennessee Territory. Still want 1035 00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:24,640 Speaker 2: more points though, I think you still want to go 1036 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,720 Speaker 2: and be aggressive, but you gotta be judicious with the football. 1037 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 8: Moore and Cooper off to the left, DPG to the right, 1038 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,920 Speaker 8: Watson in the gun with Ford on his hip DPJ 1039 00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:39,000 Speaker 8: in motion. They swing it out to More on the 1040 00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:41,800 Speaker 8: left side. He tries to pop outside, but Christian Fulton 1041 00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:44,120 Speaker 8: rides him out of bounds. No gain on the play, 1042 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:45,640 Speaker 8: maybe even a loss of a yard. 1043 00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 2: One thing we have not done well is blocking their cornerbacks, 1044 00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:50,400 Speaker 2: and whether it's in the run game, whether it's in 1045 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 2: the pass, and we just have not won those one 1046 00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:56,080 Speaker 2: on ones because if you do, Mariy Cooper gets on Fulton, 1047 00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:57,880 Speaker 2: Elijah Moore has a chance to get out there. But 1048 00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:00,319 Speaker 2: I don't mind that. Again, that's the long hand off. 1049 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:03,360 Speaker 2: It's a safe play and it has the upside to 1050 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:05,960 Speaker 2: be more for Elijah Moore. His ninth catchup to day 1051 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:09,280 Speaker 2: only forty nine yards, but nine catches on nine targets. 1052 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:11,120 Speaker 8: Third and eight, the Browns have to get to the 1053 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 8: Tennessee thirty nine ball on the left, Hash Watson in 1054 00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:18,600 Speaker 8: the shotgun with Ford next to him, DPJ to the left, 1055 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:21,560 Speaker 8: two receivers to the right, Watson over the Middleton and 1056 00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:23,960 Speaker 8: Joku gets inside the forty. Did he get it up 1057 00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:26,080 Speaker 8: for the first down? I don't think so. It looks 1058 00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:29,239 Speaker 8: like he's gonna be a half yard shy and maybe 1059 00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:31,200 Speaker 8: Harrison Brian is smiling somewhere. 1060 00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 2: Oh, he's coming back into the game off the sideline, 1061 00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:36,239 Speaker 2: so I'm sure he is. It's gonna be fourth and 1062 00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:39,880 Speaker 2: very short here, fourth and about half a yard for 1063 00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:40,840 Speaker 2: the Cleveland Browns. 1064 00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:44,440 Speaker 8: Kareem Hunt checks into the game as well. Browns have 1065 00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:46,520 Speaker 8: to get the ball to the thirty nine at rest 1066 00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:54,279 Speaker 8: just inside of the Tennessee forty. Harrison Bryant lined up 1067 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:56,720 Speaker 8: on the left side. Now both he and and Joku 1068 00:47:56,840 --> 00:48:00,359 Speaker 8: motion over to the right, and now Harrison Bryan lined 1069 00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:03,920 Speaker 8: up as the fullback. Watson is under center, and he 1070 00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:07,480 Speaker 8: keeps it himself, pushes forward and does indeed get the 1071 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:08,360 Speaker 8: first down. 1072 00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:12,960 Speaker 2: I love that first though. It's great to see Deshaun 1073 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:14,880 Speaker 2: Watson do that. It's great to see the Browns get 1074 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:18,520 Speaker 2: that first down. But after Harrison Bryant has been doing 1075 00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:21,080 Speaker 2: the sneak, they're thinking it's not gonna be a sneak, 1076 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,160 Speaker 2: and so they're able to keep that open over the 1077 00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:25,719 Speaker 2: a gap and go ahead and push forward. Good job 1078 00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:28,399 Speaker 2: by Deshaun Watson and the Cleveland Browns for the first down. 1079 00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 8: And most importantly, this is just gonna take more and 1080 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:33,920 Speaker 8: more time off the clock. After eight minutes to go 1081 00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:38,040 Speaker 8: clock is winding. Every first down, you're taking off probably 1082 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:39,759 Speaker 8: two and a half three minutes or so, as long 1083 00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:41,960 Speaker 8: as you keep it on the ground or complete short passes. 1084 00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:45,640 Speaker 8: Watson is under center, Ford is behind him. Three tight 1085 00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:48,640 Speaker 8: end set with dpj off to the right to laid 1086 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:50,680 Speaker 8: hand off on the left side and Ford gets swallowed 1087 00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:53,359 Speaker 8: up in the backfield. Tierre Tart makes the play. It's 1088 00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:54,320 Speaker 8: a loss of five. 1089 00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:56,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, he just blew past our Pro Bowl right guard 1090 00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,000 Speaker 2: Wyatt Teller right there, who was not able really to 1091 00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:01,360 Speaker 2: get a mit on him as they tried just quickly 1092 00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:03,640 Speaker 2: they got past Joel Botonio. They were pulling until I 1093 00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:06,040 Speaker 2: actually beat Potonio on the play. Teller was pulling and 1094 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:07,440 Speaker 2: almost was able to kind of clip them in a 1095 00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:09,400 Speaker 2: trap block, but that's not what it was, and that 1096 00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:10,200 Speaker 2: blew the play up. 1097 00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:15,120 Speaker 8: Ball pushed all the way back almost to the Tennessee 1098 00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:17,680 Speaker 8: forty four. Cleveland's got to get down to the Tennessee 1099 00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:22,880 Speaker 8: twenty eight for a fresh set of downs. Second and fifteen, 1100 00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:28,320 Speaker 8: Watson under center, with Ford in the backfield, fake handoff, 1101 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,640 Speaker 8: Watson looking down the middle. He's got Cooper White up 1102 00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 8: in four touchdown and Coop finally has that score with 1103 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:46,200 Speaker 8: Deshan Watson. That Brown's touchdown persented by Cross Country Mortgage, 1104 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:48,920 Speaker 8: the official mortgage partner of the Cleveland Browns.

And Amari 1133 00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:34,560 Speaker 2: how did it feel kind of get things unlocked a 1134 00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:36,080 Speaker 2: little bit against those Tennessee Titans? 1135 00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:37,359 Speaker 5: I feel is good. 1136 00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:41,280 Speaker 11: You know, anytime you can get into a nice rhythm, 1137 00:51:41,560 --> 00:51:43,719 Speaker 11: you know, individually and collectively. 1138 00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:45,279 Speaker 7: Is good. 1139 00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:48,000 Speaker 11: You know, we want to play a complimentary football. The 1140 00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:50,360 Speaker 11: defense isn't playing really great for us, so you know, 1141 00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:52,960 Speaker 11: sometimes we got to cash in on those checks as 1142 00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:56,400 Speaker 11: much as possible and go out and score so that 1143 00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:59,879 Speaker 11: the defense can get some rests, number one, but also 1144 00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:01,520 Speaker 11: so that we can win the game. That's really the 1145 00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:03,480 Speaker 11: only way you can win is you score points. So 1146 00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:06,480 Speaker 11: I'm glad we got to see some of that, and 1147 00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 11: we we look forward to continue on that. 1148 00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:11,600 Speaker 2: So I read that you would have told the coaches, 1149 00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:13,040 Speaker 2: you know, I think I can get up the field 1150 00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:15,759 Speaker 2: outside against these Titans. Guys, is that something that you 1151 00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:17,720 Speaker 2: do in your study? I know you're such a student 1152 00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:19,080 Speaker 2: of the game. It's one of things I love about 1153 00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:21,200 Speaker 2: about watching you and seeing the way you play. But 1154 00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:22,719 Speaker 2: is that something you do a lot where you do 1155 00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:24,719 Speaker 2: in your own scout you can say, hey, I kind 1156 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:26,239 Speaker 2: of see this. Can we incorporate that in. 1157 00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:31,319 Speaker 11: The interesting thing about football is like the ultimate team game. 1158 00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:36,800 Speaker 11: It's not an individual sport. You know, if, for example, 1159 00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:39,680 Speaker 11: if I was a boxer and I and I can 1160 00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:43,480 Speaker 11: dissect the guy I'm fighting against and I know exactly 1161 00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:45,160 Speaker 11: how to beat him, I could just make make the 1162 00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:46,440 Speaker 11: change and beat them. 1163 00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:48,239 Speaker 5: By that wide receiver you can. 1164 00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:50,640 Speaker 11: You can because everybody has flaws in their games, no 1165 00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:53,960 Speaker 11: matter if someone is considered a lockdown corner. So the 1166 00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:56,600 Speaker 11: thing about me, I can look at a cornerback play 1167 00:52:56,719 --> 00:52:58,840 Speaker 11: and it doesn't matter who it is. I know exactly 1168 00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:02,320 Speaker 11: how they can be beat. Just comes with my experience 1169 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 11: and how long I've been playing receiver. I know I 1170 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:06,839 Speaker 11: know how to be any type of corner just by 1171 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,800 Speaker 11: evaluating their game. And I don't mean that as arrogance, 1172 00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:13,880 Speaker 11: It's just it's just the truth. And so the problem 1173 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:16,760 Speaker 11: with that is us sometimes when I when I see something. 1174 00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:20,080 Speaker 11: I mean, over the course of my career, a lot 1175 00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:23,120 Speaker 11: of coaches they just you know, they like you will 1176 00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:24,880 Speaker 11: tell them and they just kind. 1177 00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:25,600 Speaker 5: Of ignore you either. 1178 00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:29,200 Speaker 2: I mean, but the great wild Yeah, but. 1179 00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:31,560 Speaker 11: If something wasn't a part of the game plan, or 1180 00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:35,120 Speaker 11: if you know, it's not one of their first calls, 1181 00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:37,640 Speaker 11: then hey, they're sticking to their plan. 1182 00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:46,120 Speaker 5: Some some people are how would I said, they're just. 1183 00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:49,880 Speaker 7: I don't know. 1184 00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:52,520 Speaker 5: It's like they don't. It's like, if it's not a 1185 00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:53,799 Speaker 5: part of their plan, then they won't. 1186 00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:55,320 Speaker 2: They're not flexible. 1187 00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:58,400 Speaker 11: They're not flexible enough to make the change. But a 1188 00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:00,759 Speaker 11: great thing about keV tell He'll tell me, like, you know, 1189 00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:02,800 Speaker 11: if you see something, tell me, let me know. And 1190 00:54:02,960 --> 00:54:06,440 Speaker 11: so I told him, and immediately he made the change. 1191 00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:09,480 Speaker 11: So you know, keV is a young guy. He trusts us, and. 1192 00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:11,800 Speaker 7: It worked. 1193 00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:14,279 Speaker 11: You know, I'm not out here just a guy like 1194 00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:16,000 Speaker 11: trying to beg for the ball or anything like that. 1195 00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:17,160 Speaker 5: That's that's not who I am. 1196 00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:20,320 Speaker 11: But if I see something, I think, you know, he 1197 00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:22,319 Speaker 11: knows at this point, I'm not gonna come at him 1198 00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:22,799 Speaker 11: with no break. 1199 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:25,120 Speaker 5: Yes, you know what I mean. So, yeah, that's all 1200 00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:25,400 Speaker 5: it is. 1201 00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:28,000 Speaker 2: So that's kind of it's the collaboration, right, so parts 1202 00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:31,080 Speaker 2: you talking to the play caller and also the designer 1203 00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:32,960 Speaker 2: of the scheme, I guess in essence, and then the 1204 00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:35,000 Speaker 2: other part is the communication with the quarterback and for 1205 00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:36,200 Speaker 2: you guys to be able to kind of see the 1206 00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:38,600 Speaker 2: field through the same eyes. And you know, we're not 1207 00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:41,680 Speaker 2: even we're what now nine games with you and Deshaun 1208 00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:43,759 Speaker 2: Watson a quarterback, and obviously we've seen a pick up 1209 00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:46,240 Speaker 2: over ninety against the Steelers over one hundred and sixteen 1210 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:47,840 Speaker 2: last week and the touchdown should have been more. We 1211 00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:49,759 Speaker 2: can talk about that or not talk about it, but 1212 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:52,840 Speaker 2: do you feel like that is starting to click with 1213 00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:54,720 Speaker 2: Deshaun as well, that you guys are kind of seeing 1214 00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:56,480 Speaker 2: it the same way and being able to be on 1215 00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:58,520 Speaker 2: that same page. Reec say hey when I go like this, 1216 00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:00,840 Speaker 2: you know, bring the ball here or whatnot. 1217 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:03,440 Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, it's kind of. It kind of reminds me 1218 00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:05,040 Speaker 11: of Chest a little bit, like when I played chess. 1219 00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:11,160 Speaker 11: Chess is all about it's all about like knowing what 1220 00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:12,200 Speaker 11: to do with every situation. 1221 00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:12,719 Speaker 7: So like. 1222 00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:15,920 Speaker 11: As far as like the go ball we hit a 1223 00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:19,839 Speaker 11: couple Dashaun, We've been communicating with him, Dashawan, I think 1224 00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:22,080 Speaker 11: at this point he knows exactly how to throw each 1225 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:25,719 Speaker 11: one based off of like if I'm beating the corner bad, 1226 00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:28,920 Speaker 11: if the corner is eating with me, or whatever situation 1227 00:55:29,360 --> 00:55:32,520 Speaker 11: he's he's finding out. We're finding out together exactly how 1228 00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 11: the ball should be placed. So imagine if we could 1229 00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:36,960 Speaker 11: get that done on every single route, and that's what 1230 00:55:37,080 --> 00:55:39,960 Speaker 11: we strive to do. I mean, it takes repetition, but 1231 00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:42,560 Speaker 11: it also takes a lot of community communication. 1232 00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:43,600 Speaker 5: But I think we could get there. 1233 00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:46,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, certainly we like what we've seen. Right, Certainly it's 1234 00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:49,120 Speaker 2: off to a good start this season. You mentioned chess. 1235 00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:50,920 Speaker 2: I gotta go back that you're an avid chess player. 1236 00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:54,240 Speaker 2: You and Shadobia Woozier, right, your former Dallas Cowboy teammate, 1237 00:55:54,320 --> 00:55:56,319 Speaker 2: have had some some great battles on the chess board. 1238 00:55:56,840 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 2: So when you play chess first, do you like to 1239 00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:00,560 Speaker 2: go Do you like to be the white and go 1240 00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:03,280 Speaker 2: first or do you like to react to somebody else's 1241 00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:04,920 Speaker 2: move on the black? Is the defense? 1242 00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:08,640 Speaker 11: Yeah, So the thing about chess is chess is all 1243 00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:13,880 Speaker 11: about Chess is all about activating the pieces in the attack. 1244 00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 11: So you play chess long enough, you'll realize white has 1245 00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:20,319 Speaker 11: the advantage is a very slight advantage. But because white 1246 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:23,880 Speaker 11: always moves first, and because chess is really solely about 1247 00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:27,400 Speaker 11: like initiative, it's about it's about who can get that 1248 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:31,600 Speaker 11: initiative first. And if you play perfectly with white and 1249 00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:36,200 Speaker 11: somebody plays perfectly with back, you will have the initiative. 1250 00:56:36,239 --> 00:56:38,520 Speaker 11: So it should be a draw or you'd win with 1251 00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:41,719 Speaker 11: perfect play. So with that said, obviously you will want 1252 00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:44,560 Speaker 11: to be white. But the thing is, nobody really plays 1253 00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:47,240 Speaker 11: a perfect game of chess. You know, there's a quote 1254 00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:51,120 Speaker 11: I probably heard it before, but say it's a it 1255 00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:53,840 Speaker 11: goes a good game of chess as a sign of 1256 00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:56,239 Speaker 11: a gentleman. A perfectly played game of chess is a 1257 00:56:56,280 --> 00:56:59,120 Speaker 11: sign of a wasted life. The point is, if you 1258 00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:02,239 Speaker 11: can play a perfect game of chess, you've studied it 1259 00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:05,319 Speaker 11: too much. Because it's like a it's so many it's 1260 00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:07,719 Speaker 11: a guy who did the math on chess one time. 1261 00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:09,680 Speaker 11: It's so many different moves that you can make at 1262 00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:11,919 Speaker 11: any given time. There's no way you should be playing 1263 00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:14,440 Speaker 11: a perfect game with chess. But uh yeah, I mean 1264 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:16,960 Speaker 11: I like the challenge of being black, the challenge of 1265 00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:20,320 Speaker 11: stopping the initiative of white and then going on. 1266 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:20,960 Speaker 5: To get the win. 1267 00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:23,040 Speaker 2: So yeah, do you always have the same opening if 1268 00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:24,360 Speaker 2: you play if you're white. 1269 00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:27,760 Speaker 11: No, I mean p pretty much. I open with E 1270 00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:31,880 Speaker 11: four most of the time. But you have to react 1271 00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:36,520 Speaker 11: to the moves black mate. This chess has been played 1272 00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:38,640 Speaker 11: for thousands of years, so at this point you have 1273 00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:42,280 Speaker 11: like computer agentes for chess, and people have studied these 1274 00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:45,440 Speaker 11: engines based off of certain openness. It's called chess theory. 1275 00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:47,160 Speaker 11: It's not the theory how you would think about it, 1276 00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:50,680 Speaker 11: like in a scientific way. Chess theory is like, Okay, 1277 00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:54,160 Speaker 11: these moves have been proven to work versus these moves 1278 00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:57,080 Speaker 11: against black. So if you follow these moves, you'll automatically 1279 00:57:57,120 --> 00:58:00,680 Speaker 11: have a good position. So to as you question, no, 1280 00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:03,680 Speaker 11: you know, if I open and do a certain move 1281 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:06,440 Speaker 11: and Black does one move or another move, and I'll 1282 00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:08,920 Speaker 11: react accordingly based off of chess theory and it'll be 1283 00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:09,560 Speaker 11: different moves. 1284 00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:10,080 Speaker 7: I love that. 1285 00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 2: And now you mentioned something in there to kind of 1286 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:14,280 Speaker 2: bring it back to football that you know, they say 1287 00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:17,880 Speaker 2: that life wasted too much study of chess. The NFL's 1288 00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:19,960 Speaker 2: the ultimate chess match, and we saw it last week 1289 00:58:20,040 --> 00:58:21,920 Speaker 2: on the touchdown to Jerome Ford. We'd often run that 1290 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:24,120 Speaker 2: kind of like in out of that look and we 1291 00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:25,960 Speaker 2: go with the in and go they bite for it, 1292 00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:29,160 Speaker 2: you get a touchdown. Do you feel like in your study, 1293 00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:30,720 Speaker 2: is there at a point where you get to it 1294 00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:32,960 Speaker 2: and you're like, okay, this is that I've now studied 1295 00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:35,840 Speaker 2: where you can maybe paralysis by over analysis or in 1296 00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:38,360 Speaker 2: your preparation, or you constantly dig in looking at these 1297 00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:40,520 Speaker 2: corners of the Baltimore Ravens, looking at the scheme, look 1298 00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:42,880 Speaker 2: the way that they employ them, and trying to find 1299 00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:44,680 Speaker 2: that just one little thing is that one little play 1300 00:58:44,760 --> 00:58:45,800 Speaker 2: could be the difference in the game. 1301 00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:49,080 Speaker 11: Yeah, it's definitely a such thing as a paralysis through 1302 00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:53,280 Speaker 11: analysis in football because the interesting thing about it, if 1303 00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:54,840 Speaker 11: I had to tie it in with chess again, is 1304 00:58:55,280 --> 00:58:57,200 Speaker 11: at the end of the day, you know, you can 1305 00:58:57,320 --> 00:58:59,600 Speaker 11: study a team, you can study all the games they've 1306 00:58:59,600 --> 00:59:01,800 Speaker 11: ever played, but you do not know for sure what 1307 00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:03,680 Speaker 11: they're gonna do, what they're gonna come out there and do. 1308 00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:08,000 Speaker 11: It's impossible to know that unless you're moving at the 1309 00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:11,240 Speaker 11: speed of light in the three years time, but or 1310 00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:14,880 Speaker 11: faster than the speed of light. But yeah, the point 1311 00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:17,960 Speaker 11: is you can never predict what the team is gonna do. 1312 00:59:18,160 --> 00:59:20,160 Speaker 11: So at some point you just have to go out 1313 00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:26,200 Speaker 11: there and and and be instinctive, you know what I mean. Like, 1314 00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:28,760 Speaker 11: for example, it was like in the I think the 1315 00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:30,880 Speaker 11: fifties and sixties when it comes to chess. 1316 00:59:30,960 --> 00:59:32,520 Speaker 5: You know, everybody's heard of Bobby Fisher. 1317 00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:36,920 Speaker 11: The Russians dominated chess for decades, and that all came 1318 00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:40,040 Speaker 11: to a halt with Bobby Fisher. The interesting thing about 1319 00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:42,120 Speaker 11: it is they didn't really have chess engines at that time, 1320 00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:47,720 Speaker 11: so Bobby Fisher basically by itself because the Russians, you know, 1321 00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:50,120 Speaker 11: and the top ten players in the world, the Russians 1322 00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:52,320 Speaker 11: probably had like the top eight players that that Bobby 1323 00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:56,520 Speaker 11: was obviously one of the best. So I think it 1324 00:59:56,560 --> 00:59:59,000 Speaker 11: was Boris Baski he was playing. When he was preparing 1325 00:59:59,080 --> 01:00:01,520 Speaker 11: for that game, literally had to beat all the Russians 1326 01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:05,320 Speaker 11: because all the Russians were training Boris Baski to beat 1327 01:00:05,400 --> 01:00:06,080 Speaker 11: this one guy. 1328 01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:07,760 Speaker 5: So he had to be all he had to be 1329 01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:08,600 Speaker 5: all these guys. 1330 01:00:09,080 --> 01:00:14,320 Speaker 11: But the thing about it is they were evaluating, they 1331 01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:16,040 Speaker 11: were evaluating his games, and. 1332 01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:18,360 Speaker 5: He was like, if he go if he does this, 1333 01:00:18,520 --> 01:00:20,000 Speaker 5: you have to do that. He does this, you have 1334 01:00:20,080 --> 01:00:20,360 Speaker 5: to do that. 1335 01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:22,680 Speaker 11: He came out and did something totally different and he 1336 01:00:23,560 --> 01:00:24,600 Speaker 11: washed Boris Pasky. 1337 01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:26,680 Speaker 2: So yeah, that's one of the things that you liked 1338 01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:28,280 Speaker 2: to You told me. If you run a rout and 1339 01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:29,960 Speaker 2: you know they've put it on tape, you've run it 1340 01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:31,880 Speaker 2: a certain way a lot, you like to change it 1341 01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:33,600 Speaker 2: up on them and all of a sudden, that's how 1342 01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:34,080 Speaker 2: you get opened. 1343 01:00:35,120 --> 01:00:37,120 Speaker 11: You got to be a step ahead of the opponent, 1344 01:00:37,160 --> 01:00:41,000 Speaker 11: and that's where you know, that's where that self analysis 1345 01:00:41,080 --> 01:00:41,360 Speaker 11: comes in. 1346 01:00:41,480 --> 01:00:45,040 Speaker 4: The next on this Browns Victory Friday edition of Cleveland 1347 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:47,480 Speaker 4: Browns Daily, we take you back to the opening segment 1348 01:00:47,560 --> 01:00:50,760 Speaker 4: on Victory Monday, the day after the Browns second win 1349 01:00:50,920 --> 01:00:54,280 Speaker 4: of the season.

But 1414 01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:13,520 Speaker 3: what is happening here is the type of defense that 1415 01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:17,520 Speaker 3: imposes its will upon opponents and then stands over its 1416 01:04:17,600 --> 01:04:22,160 Speaker 3: grave with laughter as it buries them. That is a swaggering, 1417 01:04:22,440 --> 01:04:25,320 Speaker 3: sauntering defense. This is this is a whole other level. 1418 01:04:25,360 --> 01:04:25,560 Speaker 7: Brother. 1419 01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:29,080 Speaker 2: Well yeah, and we're talking about we're getting into things 1420 01:04:29,080 --> 01:04:32,480 Speaker 2: that are historic in nature, right, that's where the defense is. 1421 01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:37,320 Speaker 2: This is the first defense since nineteen seventy eight, since 1422 01:04:37,440 --> 01:04:40,440 Speaker 2: nineteen seventy eight, wow, to not allow And that was 1423 01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:41,480 Speaker 2: my birth our birth year. 1424 01:04:41,520 --> 01:04:44,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you meet seventy. 1425 01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:45,720 Speaker 2: Forty five for me, sorry a little bit older. Sorry 1426 01:04:45,720 --> 01:04:48,920 Speaker 2: about that all right since nineteen seventy eight to not 1427 01:04:49,040 --> 01:04:51,680 Speaker 2: allow a red zone touchdown or a red zone field 1428 01:04:51,800 --> 01:04:55,320 Speaker 2: goal through three games. If you think about the Tennessee 1429 01:04:55,320 --> 01:04:57,160 Speaker 2: Titans their field goal, they took over in the red 1430 01:04:57,240 --> 01:04:59,040 Speaker 2: zone after the Emijah More fumbling. Again, that's still some 1431 01:04:59,080 --> 01:05:00,640 Speaker 2: of the Browns need to clean up. But then they 1432 01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:03,160 Speaker 2: went backwards nine yards and kicked field goal from outside 1433 01:05:03,160 --> 01:05:04,680 Speaker 2: of the red zone. So that's the first that that's 1434 01:05:04,680 --> 01:05:07,800 Speaker 2: happened in since nineteen seventy eight. One of the great 1435 01:05:07,960 --> 01:05:11,840 Speaker 2: commenters of our time, Beamsy says, the Browns defense is him. 1436 01:05:13,400 --> 01:05:16,880 Speaker 2: He did, Bill Simmons. Cleveland's defense is out of control. 1437 01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:20,400 Speaker 2: It's like they have fifteen guys out there. Jason Starrett. 1438 01:05:20,720 --> 01:05:22,439 Speaker 2: The Browns have a lot an NFL o three point 1439 01:05:22,520 --> 01:05:25,200 Speaker 2: two yards per play this season, best by any NFL 1440 01:05:25,280 --> 01:05:29,640 Speaker 2: defense through three games this century. The Browns have forced 1441 01:05:29,640 --> 01:05:31,440 Speaker 2: three and outs on sixty one point five percent of 1442 01:05:31,480 --> 01:05:34,160 Speaker 2: opponent drives, also the best by any defense through three 1443 01:05:34,240 --> 01:05:39,040 Speaker 2: games since the year in the year two thousand. Pretty real, 1444 01:05:39,600 --> 01:05:43,760 Speaker 2: Pretty real, yes, you look at in terms of defensive 1445 01:05:43,840 --> 01:05:47,080 Speaker 2: success rate, the Browns this year have three of the 1446 01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:49,680 Speaker 2: top ten performances in the league wide. Think about every 1447 01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:51,520 Speaker 2: single game that's been playing the league since the start 1448 01:05:51,560 --> 01:05:54,120 Speaker 2: of the twenty twenty two season. Is they have been 1449 01:05:54,560 --> 01:05:59,640 Speaker 2: unbelievable so far. They're eight of forty one, eight of 1450 01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:03,280 Speaker 2: four one on third downs. Yeah, their average. I just 1451 01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:07,040 Speaker 2: saw this one. The Browns have allowed negative thirty six 1452 01:06:07,160 --> 01:06:11,920 Speaker 2: yards rushing before contact this season. The league average is 1453 01:06:12,160 --> 01:06:18,800 Speaker 2: ninety four yards. So we are one hundred and one 1454 01:06:18,880 --> 01:06:21,840 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty yards better than the league average in 1455 01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:25,360 Speaker 2: terms of the yards before contact rushing this season. Yeah, 1456 01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:26,560 Speaker 2: that's insane. 1457 01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:31,000 Speaker 3: There's a I'm sure you saw it on the in 1458 01:06:31,080 --> 01:06:33,200 Speaker 3: the booth as you and Chris were calling the game. 1459 01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:35,720 Speaker 3: By the way, great shot of you, an extended shot 1460 01:06:35,760 --> 01:06:37,480 Speaker 3: of you is they're paying homage to the great Jim 1461 01:06:37,520 --> 01:06:40,000 Speaker 3: Donovan on the television broadcast, and I heard you looked 1462 01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:43,320 Speaker 3: incredibly stoic, thank you, and very solid.

It's nice By the way of CBS today, 1469 01:06:55,840 --> 01:06:57,840 Speaker 2: very cool for Jim, and Jim is somebody that was 1470 01:06:57,920 --> 01:07:01,480 Speaker 2: constantly on our minds. I got this cool thing yesterday, 1471 01:07:01,480 --> 01:07:03,400 Speaker 2: the great yeah cannon to me, it's a week stand 1472 01:07:03,440 --> 01:07:05,800 Speaker 2: with jimmy bracelet, and I posted a picture of it 1473 01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:09,920 Speaker 2: and all I got, I mean, millions and millions of 1474 01:07:09,960 --> 01:07:12,280 Speaker 2: people they said, where can we get that? And I 1475 01:07:12,320 --> 01:07:15,160 Speaker 2: don't know that they thought that it might do that sure, 1476 01:07:15,360 --> 01:07:17,600 Speaker 2: and so I hopefully they're they're getting to work on that. 1477 01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:22,880 Speaker 2: So yeah, it was the coolest play. 1478 01:07:23,120 --> 01:07:25,120 Speaker 3: And I do think, like you think about the hiring 1479 01:07:25,160 --> 01:07:29,240 Speaker 3: of Jim Schwartz and what he provided schematically meshing with 1480 01:07:29,400 --> 01:07:32,000 Speaker 3: the talent that was zact was acquired in the specific 1481 01:07:32,040 --> 01:07:35,240 Speaker 3: spots by Andrew Barry, but the attitude that he brought 1482 01:07:35,840 --> 01:07:40,880 Speaker 3: to the group, the demanding of being chesty, of celebrating, 1483 01:07:41,640 --> 01:07:45,600 Speaker 3: of pounding your chest, it was probably best you think 1484 01:07:45,640 --> 01:07:47,960 Speaker 3: about the moments we've had already, like Miles Garrett doing 1485 01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:52,040 Speaker 3: the crossover you know job and then Tennessee. Folks, if 1486 01:07:52,080 --> 01:07:53,840 Speaker 3: you haven't really I'm sure you've seen it on social. 1487 01:07:54,040 --> 01:07:55,640 Speaker 3: You were at that you obviously paid and saw in 1488 01:07:55,760 --> 01:07:57,760 Speaker 3: real time, But if you miss it's going around on 1489 01:07:57,840 --> 01:08:00,640 Speaker 3: social Miles Garrett is switching back and forth on which 1490 01:08:00,720 --> 01:08:03,000 Speaker 3: side he's going to rush on, and Tennessee is trying 1491 01:08:03,400 --> 01:08:06,680 Speaker 3: to get two tight ends opposite Miles or ahead of 1492 01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:09,000 Speaker 3: Miles to line up to try to block him with 1493 01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:11,240 Speaker 3: two tight ends to help the tackle. So they three 1494 01:08:11,280 --> 01:08:13,960 Speaker 3: people on him and Miles is bouncing back and forth, 1495 01:08:14,200 --> 01:08:16,679 Speaker 3: and they get a delay a game on the penalty, 1496 01:08:17,120 --> 01:08:19,120 Speaker 3: and Jim Schwartz has a smile. 1497 01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:22,040 Speaker 2: He's laughing. That is just priceless. 1498 01:08:22,360 --> 01:08:26,240 Speaker 3: So there are great defenses and then there are defenses 1499 01:08:26,320 --> 01:08:29,200 Speaker 3: that in this one. It's three games. No one's crowning anybody, 1500 01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:31,720 Speaker 3: but these are this is this has this start to 1501 01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:35,000 Speaker 3: the type of defense that will be remembered for a 1502 01:08:35,200 --> 01:08:37,600 Speaker 3: long time, provided health continues. 1503 01:08:37,800 --> 01:08:40,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, it has a chance to be talked about like 1504 01:08:40,400 --> 01:08:43,439 Speaker 2: the Ravens, like the Legion of Booms, you know, like. 1505 01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:46,760 Speaker 3: All of it. 1506 01:08:46,920 --> 01:08:48,000 Speaker 7: So it's there. 1507 01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:50,720 Speaker 2: They have been dominant. The pass rushing has just been 1508 01:08:51,520 --> 01:08:54,800 Speaker 2: off the charts good. It's been exciting and it's been 1509 01:08:54,840 --> 01:08:57,719 Speaker 2: fun to watch. But the real story of this game, 1510 01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:00,960 Speaker 2: because this defense, quite frankly, has done this every single week, 1511 01:09:01,439 --> 01:09:02,960 Speaker 2: the real story this game was your quarterback. 1512 01:09:03,720 --> 01:09:06,080 Speaker 3: Well that's the other part of it, it's it's twofold. 1513 01:09:06,320 --> 01:09:08,439 Speaker 3: It's you have a hit, you have the making of 1514 01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:12,200 Speaker 3: what is a historic defense, correct, And and that to 1515 01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:15,240 Speaker 3: me ought to be the lead because they have been. 1516 01:09:15,920 --> 01:09:21,240 Speaker 3: They have been dudes, just filthy dudes. The nervy part 1517 01:09:21,800 --> 01:09:23,479 Speaker 3: is what we're going to get into right now, and 1518 01:09:23,600 --> 01:09:29,240 Speaker 3: that was no Nick Chubb, Ken, Deshaun Watson, here's the 1519 01:09:29,320 --> 01:09:32,160 Speaker 3: keys to the football, Ferrari, drive it, brother, And it 1520 01:09:32,320 --> 01:09:36,080 Speaker 3: was nervy to start, and then it got going, and 1521 01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:38,400 Speaker 3: then it really went. And in the second half, I thought, 1522 01:09:38,439 --> 01:09:40,679 Speaker 3: you saw, I mean, this was everybody up twenty seven 1523 01:09:40,720 --> 01:09:42,600 Speaker 3: to thirty three, Ye, this was this. 1524 01:09:44,760 --> 01:09:46,280 Speaker 2: And one on a blown up screen, so three of 1525 01:09:46,320 --> 01:09:48,080 Speaker 2: them were not even incompletion. 1526 01:09:48,320 --> 01:09:49,840 Speaker 5: And it wasn't just that. 1527 01:09:50,240 --> 01:09:54,320 Speaker 3: It was the ball placement, throwing with anticipation, hitting guys 1528 01:09:54,360 --> 01:09:54,960 Speaker 3: in stride. 1529 01:09:55,479 --> 01:09:56,520 Speaker 7: It was elite. 1530 01:09:56,880 --> 01:09:59,479 Speaker 3: It was everything that he was supposed to pee upon 1531 01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:02,000 Speaker 3: a right, you got it for the last what would 1532 01:10:02,000 --> 01:10:03,080 Speaker 3: you say, two and a half quarters. 1533 01:10:04,560 --> 01:10:06,599 Speaker 2: I think that's when it really kind of got going. 1534 01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:09,479 Speaker 3: Honestly, it was like after that ridiculous where he threw 1535 01:10:09,560 --> 01:10:11,760 Speaker 3: it backwards to to Elijah Moore. 1536 01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:13,920 Speaker 2: From that point on, it like he was good to go. 1537 01:10:14,120 --> 01:10:15,760 Speaker 2: He was good to go after that. Yeah, and we 1538 01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:18,560 Speaker 2: got the beautiful ball, got the pass interference right after that, 1539 01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:22,080 Speaker 2: really got robbed of a touchdown, you know, on on 1540 01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:23,920 Speaker 2: one of those drives as well, which we'll talk about, 1541 01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:26,000 Speaker 2: I'm sure, but yeah, I thought it was important on 1542 01:10:26,080 --> 01:10:28,479 Speaker 2: the opening drive though, that you still got three And 1543 01:10:28,560 --> 01:10:29,960 Speaker 2: if you remember how it happened, he trips on the 1544 01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:32,519 Speaker 2: first down, gets up, they get eight yards and they 1545 01:10:32,640 --> 01:10:35,160 Speaker 2: lose two on second and then on third he got 1546 01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:38,080 Speaker 2: sacked by two different guys. Yeah, it got out of 1547 01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:39,680 Speaker 2: both of them. Hits Elijah for the first down, and 1548 01:10:39,680 --> 01:10:40,840 Speaker 2: then you're able to go get some points. And I 1549 01:10:40,880 --> 01:10:43,439 Speaker 2: just thought that was through a momentum standpoint, was a 1550 01:10:43,560 --> 01:10:46,120 Speaker 2: very positive thing. But yeah, then he started really getting 1551 01:10:46,160 --> 01:10:49,280 Speaker 2: into it, getting comfortable, standing tall in the pocket, getting 1552 01:10:49,320 --> 01:10:52,439 Speaker 2: to his third read, delivering just some strikes. There was 1553 01:10:52,479 --> 01:10:55,320 Speaker 2: a couple of throws that he made on just outs 1554 01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:59,679 Speaker 2: or comebacks from the far hash to the sideline. Those 1555 01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:02,639 Speaker 2: that is a long throw in the National Football League, 1556 01:11:02,880 --> 01:11:04,439 Speaker 2: and we saw him do it last year and he 1557 01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:06,240 Speaker 2: did it again yesterday. There are a couple that I 1558 01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:08,200 Speaker 2: think the Titans thought they were going to get and 1559 01:11:08,280 --> 01:11:11,160 Speaker 2: get their hands on and he's like yet Nope, And 1560 01:11:11,400 --> 01:11:15,600 Speaker 2: it was still far, honestly from a perfect overall offensive performance. 1561 01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:18,040 Speaker 2: We had bad blocking on the perimeter. We had a 1562 01:11:18,040 --> 01:11:21,000 Speaker 2: couple those plays it could have been huge. The trick 1563 01:11:21,080 --> 01:11:25,200 Speaker 2: play with the inside handoff reverse flea flicker screen set up. 1564 01:11:26,439 --> 01:11:27,720 Speaker 2: We had four guys a block one guy. 1565 01:11:27,800 --> 01:11:28,280 Speaker 7: It was a wall. 1566 01:11:28,320 --> 01:11:30,360 Speaker 3: I'd never seen that play before. There's a wall over there. 1567 01:11:30,400 --> 01:11:32,080 Speaker 2: It was like we had four guys to block one 1568 01:11:32,160 --> 01:11:34,160 Speaker 2: guy and somehow that one guy was able to trip 1569 01:11:34,240 --> 01:11:35,800 Speaker 2: up Elijah More. We had a couple of the runs 1570 01:11:35,840 --> 01:11:38,000 Speaker 2: where on the outside we didn't do what we were 1571 01:11:38,040 --> 01:11:40,800 Speaker 2: supposed to do and that caused some things. But when 1572 01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:43,519 Speaker 2: your quarterback plays that well, and when your quarterback is 1573 01:11:43,560 --> 01:11:47,559 Speaker 2: able on third down to deliver the football for your 1574 01:11:47,640 --> 01:11:50,080 Speaker 2: team so that you can get first downs and extend drives, 1575 01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:52,160 Speaker 2: you're very tough to beat. I mean, we all possessed 1576 01:11:52,200 --> 01:11:55,680 Speaker 2: them thirty eight twenty nine to twenty one. Thirty one 1577 01:11:55,760 --> 01:11:57,880 Speaker 2: Browns were sick of thirteen on third downs, one to 1578 01:11:57,960 --> 01:12:00,280 Speaker 2: one on fourth downs that we held the tight into 1579 01:12:00,280 --> 01:12:02,080 Speaker 2: the two of two. Oh and guess what was back? 1580 01:12:02,720 --> 01:12:06,040 Speaker 2: The quarterback sneak well and the tight end sneak first, Well, 1581 01:12:06,120 --> 01:12:09,920 Speaker 2: I mean that's right, good job, and I wish I 1582 01:12:09,960 --> 01:12:11,560 Speaker 2: don't know what camera were on, because we have the 1583 01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:14,320 Speaker 2: screens on the beautiful Tusk in countries. It is gorgeous. 1584 01:12:14,960 --> 01:12:17,639 Speaker 2: Yeah it is, well now the Great Wall of China. Yeah, 1585 01:12:17,920 --> 01:12:20,519 Speaker 2: but a good screensaver though, it is very nice pictures. 1586 01:12:20,600 --> 01:12:22,320 Speaker 2: No idea for streaming this show or not. I don't know, 1587 01:12:22,479 --> 01:12:25,920 Speaker 2: are we Yeah we are okay, all right, very good. 1588 01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:26,320 Speaker 7: Good to know. 1589 01:12:26,960 --> 01:12:29,679 Speaker 2: Well, that's fine, Okay, we don't need this Big D's. 1590 01:12:29,720 --> 01:12:31,320 Speaker 2: We didn't have it for many years. Yeah, we're fine, 1591 01:12:31,320 --> 01:12:33,439 Speaker 2: don't need it now. But we did mention on this program, 1592 01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:35,720 Speaker 2: we did, how about a tight end sneaking it? Well, 1593 01:12:35,880 --> 01:12:39,160 Speaker 2: Harrison Brian does it, Harrison Brian doesn't. And then they're saying, oh, well, 1594 01:12:39,160 --> 01:12:41,640 Speaker 2: Harrison Brian's the sneak guy. And that Shohn comes up 1595 01:12:41,680 --> 01:12:43,280 Speaker 2: and there's nobody over the center and he's able to 1596 01:12:43,280 --> 01:12:45,479 Speaker 2: sneak for a first down himself, which was great to 1597 01:12:45,560 --> 01:12:47,639 Speaker 2: see that he was he wanted to go go get 1598 01:12:47,720 --> 01:12:49,960 Speaker 2: that first down for the Cleveland Browns, and I think 1599 01:12:50,040 --> 01:12:51,840 Speaker 2: that is adding that back into the mix is a 1600 01:12:51,920 --> 01:12:54,720 Speaker 2: very nice weapon to have. But yeah, this was This 1601 01:12:54,960 --> 01:12:57,240 Speaker 2: was Deshaun Watson doing to the Tennessee Titans what he 1602 01:12:57,320 --> 01:13:01,800 Speaker 2: always does right, like high completion percentage. Quarterback rating was 1603 01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:03,800 Speaker 2: his first career against him was one nineteen. This was 1604 01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:04,880 Speaker 2: one twenty three point four. 1605 01:13:05,080 --> 01:13:05,320 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1606 01:13:05,520 --> 01:13:07,720 Speaker 2: Really should have been higher because it should have been 1607 01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:09,599 Speaker 2: three hundred plus yards and three touchdowns. 1608 01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:12,120 Speaker 3: My god, just imagine how it would be viewed it 1609 01:13:12,280 --> 01:13:16,840 Speaker 3: had that agreed when the most inexplicable inadvertent whistles. 1610 01:13:16,439 --> 01:13:22,120 Speaker 2: I wasn't Inverton. It was inexplicably. He meant to Yes, 1611 01:13:22,479 --> 01:13:23,759 Speaker 2: he thought he stepped out of bounds. 1612 01:13:24,520 --> 01:13:27,479 Speaker 3: He's not even six inches for about of bounds. I mean, 1613 01:13:27,520 --> 01:13:30,519 Speaker 3: it's just not even if it's not even close. It's 1614 01:13:30,560 --> 01:13:32,679 Speaker 3: like one of those ones where you just go, oh yeah, coach, 1615 01:13:32,720 --> 01:13:34,000 Speaker 3: I blew it, but I'm sorry, We're gonna have to 1616 01:13:34,040 --> 01:13:35,760 Speaker 3: have the ball here, Like I just blew that for 1617 01:13:35,840 --> 01:13:38,760 Speaker 3: no reason, like I'm an idiot.

And what's 1636 01:14:19,280 --> 01:14:21,479 Speaker 2: crazy about that one? Even more than the fact, look 1637 01:14:21,920 --> 01:14:24,760 Speaker 2: he made he's a human being. He made a mistake, right, 1638 01:14:24,880 --> 01:14:28,360 Speaker 2: There's no doubt about it. It was an egregious mistake. 1639 01:14:30,240 --> 01:14:33,120 Speaker 2: The very next play, we threw a ball down the 1640 01:14:33,200 --> 01:14:36,280 Speaker 2: right sideline to a Mari at about the top Tennessee five. 1641 01:14:38,160 --> 01:14:40,439 Speaker 2: There was a lot of contact made on that play. 1642 01:14:43,280 --> 01:14:46,800 Speaker 2: Isn't that an automatic makeup call? Flat? Make it right? Yeah, okay, 1643 01:14:46,840 --> 01:14:48,200 Speaker 2: find you guys don't get the touch on, but you're 1644 01:14:48,200 --> 01:14:50,120 Speaker 2: goar me be first and goal. They had every opportunity 1645 01:14:50,120 --> 01:14:51,760 Speaker 2: to make it right. On the very next play, I 1646 01:14:51,880 --> 01:14:54,920 Speaker 2: even thought the dude, even though it wasn't anywhere near him, 1647 01:14:54,920 --> 01:14:57,840 Speaker 2: the guy on that sideline should have thrown the flash interference. 1648 01:14:57,960 --> 01:15:02,200 Speaker 2: I blew it first down the association. It's an automatic 1649 01:15:02,280 --> 01:15:07,200 Speaker 2: the next necession, automatic makeup call, Like, here's the thing, 1650 01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:10,439 Speaker 2: and I'm very curious to see what the NFL does 1651 01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:10,800 Speaker 2: about this. 1652 01:15:10,960 --> 01:15:11,080 Speaker 7: Now. 1653 01:15:11,320 --> 01:15:13,599 Speaker 2: I'm sure that that official he made a mistake. I'm 1654 01:15:13,600 --> 01:15:15,840 Speaker 2: sure that he was rooting the rest of the game, like, man, 1655 01:15:15,840 --> 01:15:18,320 Speaker 2: I sure hope the Browns win this game, because the 1656 01:15:18,439 --> 01:15:20,360 Speaker 2: truth is, had the Browns lost that game by three, 1657 01:15:20,680 --> 01:15:23,839 Speaker 2: because that was a four point play that could potentially, 1658 01:15:23,840 --> 01:15:26,040 Speaker 2: at the end of this year affect people's jobs, livelihoods, 1659 01:15:26,320 --> 01:15:30,799 Speaker 2: their families, location, all of it. So what's the recourse 1660 01:15:30,880 --> 01:15:35,000 Speaker 2: on that? What's the there's that official. There has to 1661 01:15:35,040 --> 01:15:38,080 Speaker 2: be some type of I don't know, punishment, whatever it is, 1662 01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:40,040 Speaker 2: because you can't have to. 1663 01:15:40,080 --> 01:15:43,680 Speaker 3: Be There have got to be ramifications like it's it's 1664 01:15:44,320 --> 01:15:47,360 Speaker 3: critical of a thing thirty one three, oh my god, 1665 01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:49,720 Speaker 3: and like an apology. Then you know, like there has 1666 01:15:49,800 --> 01:15:53,880 Speaker 3: to be some sort of punitive damage for that because 1667 01:15:53,880 --> 01:15:56,680 Speaker 3: it's just a cute It didn't cost us, thankfully, but no, 1668 01:15:57,800 --> 01:16:01,360 Speaker 3: it's it's a huge one thing, and it's not one 1669 01:16:01,400 --> 01:16:04,519 Speaker 3: of those ones that is ever going to show up 1670 01:16:05,240 --> 01:16:07,479 Speaker 3: in any sort of It's not showing up in a 1671 01:16:07,560 --> 01:16:11,400 Speaker 3: stat sheet. It's it's not really Uh, it's not something 1672 01:16:11,439 --> 01:16:13,600 Speaker 3: that if you didn't watch the game, or my guess is, 1673 01:16:13,640 --> 01:16:16,280 Speaker 3: if you weren't there, you wouldn't even you wouldn't even notice. 1674 01:16:16,760 --> 01:16:22,080 Speaker 3: But two receptions for twenty two yards, five carries for 1675 01:16:22,280 --> 01:16:25,800 Speaker 3: thirteen But it was a whole lot bigger than that 1676 01:16:25,880 --> 01:16:29,519 Speaker 3: for Kareem Hunt. Yes, and he had a ton of juice. 1677 01:16:29,600 --> 01:16:32,479 Speaker 3: Buddy walks in with the Nick Chubb shirt on y 1678 01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:36,960 Speaker 3: the fans hit. You see the numbers, You go, well 1679 01:16:37,320 --> 01:16:39,120 Speaker 3: he had no impact. Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, 1680 01:16:39,240 --> 01:16:39,400 Speaker 3: no no. 1681 01:16:39,920 --> 01:16:42,479 Speaker 2: And he picked up a first down, Yeah, ran through 1682 01:16:42,560 --> 01:16:44,040 Speaker 2: three guys. It's burying. 1683 01:16:44,240 --> 01:16:49,840 Speaker 3: He's he's a heartbeat engine guy, gets going. Yeah, he's emotional. Yeah, 1684 01:16:50,200 --> 01:16:52,240 Speaker 3: and they love him. And it was you could tell 1685 01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:55,400 Speaker 3: like he's His presence helped bigly. 1686 01:16:55,200 --> 01:16:58,120 Speaker 2: No doubt, his presence helped. I think that there was 1687 01:16:58,960 --> 01:17:02,120 Speaker 2: a calm and a passion and a focus on this 1688 01:17:02,200 --> 01:17:04,639 Speaker 2: football team that permeated everywhere. And I think it started, 1689 01:17:04,920 --> 01:17:07,160 Speaker 2: you know, certainly our defense as the swagger and their dominance, 1690 01:17:07,200 --> 01:17:09,760 Speaker 2: and we had four people or we had five people 1691 01:17:09,800 --> 01:17:12,200 Speaker 2: who graded eighty five or higher at Pro Football Focus 1692 01:17:12,280 --> 01:17:14,960 Speaker 2: in one game on defense that is that is not normal. 1693 01:17:16,479 --> 01:17:19,760 Speaker 2: This team had that, and I think they got an 1694 01:17:19,760 --> 01:17:23,920 Speaker 2: emotional lift from Kareem Hunt. I think that your quarterback 1695 01:17:24,680 --> 01:17:27,599 Speaker 2: because everything has changed in some ways. I think it's 1696 01:17:27,760 --> 01:17:30,000 Speaker 2: it made it easier for him to just be him 1697 01:17:30,439 --> 01:17:32,640 Speaker 2: because in Houston it was all on him and now 1698 01:17:32,720 --> 01:17:34,800 Speaker 2: it's kind of back to that scenario and he had 1699 01:17:34,840 --> 01:17:36,320 Speaker 2: his best game and he's gonna be at this level 1700 01:17:36,320 --> 01:17:38,439 Speaker 2: every single week. No, even in Houston he wasn't. But 1701 01:17:38,960 --> 01:17:40,920 Speaker 2: over the course of the season, you know you're going 1702 01:17:41,000 --> 01:17:42,400 Speaker 2: to get more good than bad. And if he can 1703 01:17:42,439 --> 01:17:45,320 Speaker 2: continue to play it like this, and this defense can 1704 01:17:45,400 --> 01:17:48,280 Speaker 2: be stefens can't stop everybody from scoring forever. I mean, 1705 01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:51,760 Speaker 2: it's just like it's going to It's the NFL. Yeah, 1706 01:17:51,880 --> 01:17:54,560 Speaker 2: there are other offenses. Good good offense can always be 1707 01:17:54,640 --> 01:17:56,840 Speaker 2: good defense just because of the way that the rules 1708 01:17:56,880 --> 01:18:01,120 Speaker 2: are and all of it. But this team has if 1709 01:18:01,160 --> 01:18:04,519 Speaker 2: you get Deshaun Watson playing like that, this defense continuing 1710 01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:06,519 Speaker 2: to do what it does, or even you know, a 1711 01:18:06,600 --> 01:18:09,200 Speaker 2: percentage of that and we stay healthy. There's no ceiling 1712 01:18:09,280 --> 01:18:11,600 Speaker 2: for this team. It is an unlimited ceiling for what 1713 01:18:11,680 --> 01:18:12,920 Speaker 2: this team is capable of doing. 1714 01:18:13,640 --> 01:18:16,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, there is. And there's the crazy thing is is 1715 01:18:16,520 --> 01:18:19,720 Speaker 3: like as as comprehensive as this was, there are still 1716 01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:23,080 Speaker 3: plenty of things to improve upon. As you mentioned the turnover. 1717 01:18:23,360 --> 01:18:26,599 Speaker 3: We had another turnover again in this game. There's there's 1718 01:18:26,720 --> 01:18:29,920 Speaker 3: little things here or there. The left tackle thing is nervy. 1719 01:18:30,520 --> 01:18:30,760 Speaker 7: Still. 1720 01:18:30,800 --> 01:18:32,240 Speaker 3: There's a couple of plays a game with Jed that 1721 01:18:32,320 --> 01:18:34,439 Speaker 3: are that are pretty nervy where the guy gets around, 1722 01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:36,800 Speaker 3: edge on him a little bit. You still have an 1723 01:18:36,880 --> 01:18:39,320 Speaker 3: unlockeddown when people's Jones really did the point where he 1724 01:18:39,439 --> 01:18:41,960 Speaker 3: had been the last couple of years. Elijah Moore even 1725 01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:44,000 Speaker 3: hasn't been quite unlocked. He get a lot of touches 1726 01:18:44,160 --> 01:18:46,120 Speaker 3: sure in the game yesterday, but I think that game 1727 01:18:46,200 --> 01:18:48,439 Speaker 3: breaking we have we haven't hit markis good one on 1728 01:18:48,479 --> 01:18:50,080 Speaker 3: a big one yet. Like so there's a lot of 1729 01:18:50,160 --> 01:18:53,280 Speaker 3: things that still have to be unlocked for this team. 1730 01:18:53,680 --> 01:18:56,960 Speaker 3: And you're two and one despite it, and you're the 1731 01:18:57,280 --> 01:19:00,240 Speaker 3: one loss you have. You give up two offensive touchdowns 1732 01:19:01,040 --> 01:19:03,799 Speaker 3: in terms of your offense, giving the defense too offensive 1733 01:19:03,840 --> 01:19:07,080 Speaker 3: touchdowns or two defensive touchdowns as it were. There is 1734 01:19:07,120 --> 01:19:08,760 Speaker 3: a lot to like, it's a lot to like. And 1735 01:19:08,880 --> 01:19:13,639 Speaker 3: this this defense though, is it's real, man, it's really 1736 01:19:14,240 --> 01:19:14,839 Speaker 3: it's fearsome. 1737 01:19:15,720 --> 01:19:20,280 Speaker 2: We generate quick pressure at a rate right now that 1738 01:19:20,479 --> 01:19:24,959 Speaker 2: is historic. And what that does is it forces an 1739 01:19:24,960 --> 01:19:30,640 Speaker 2: opposing offensive coordinator and quarterback into situations where all you 1740 01:19:30,800 --> 01:19:33,599 Speaker 2: can do is get the ball out of your hands 1741 01:19:33,680 --> 01:19:36,680 Speaker 2: quickly and we've been tackling really really well. Or you 1742 01:19:36,760 --> 01:19:38,640 Speaker 2: can try to throw a one on one ball up 1743 01:19:38,640 --> 01:19:42,080 Speaker 2: the sideline. That's kind of really what offense has become. 1744 01:19:42,120 --> 01:19:45,640 Speaker 2: You can't run on us at all. And so I 1745 01:19:45,680 --> 01:19:47,560 Speaker 2: think when you know, we'll turn our pension to the 1746 01:19:47,640 --> 01:19:49,560 Speaker 2: Ravens come to town. But that's what it's going to 1747 01:19:49,600 --> 01:19:51,040 Speaker 2: be for them, is it's going to be I think 1748 01:19:51,040 --> 01:19:53,040 Speaker 2: a lot of Lamar Jackson quick game, and it's going 1749 01:19:53,120 --> 01:19:54,360 Speaker 2: to be you got to make sure you contain him 1750 01:19:54,400 --> 01:19:56,320 Speaker 2: because he can hurt you with your legs, with his legs. 1751 01:19:56,360 --> 01:20:00,560 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, but the way that they are pressure, I 1752 01:20:00,560 --> 01:20:04,599 Speaker 2: mean Alex Wright Sack came on a two man route 1753 01:20:04,680 --> 01:20:07,840 Speaker 2: Max protect and sacked him in less than three seconds. Yeah, 1754 01:20:08,560 --> 01:20:09,400 Speaker 2: like that's insane. 1755 01:20:09,800 --> 01:20:10,000 Speaker 5: Yep. 1756 01:20:11,200 --> 01:20:16,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, every single button that Andrew Berry pushed this offseason 1757 01:20:16,520 --> 01:20:21,680 Speaker 3: defensively was the right button from Obo to Tomlinson, all 1758 01:20:21,800 --> 01:20:26,559 Speaker 3: of those things they it'll z obviously like it all marries, 1759 01:20:27,439 --> 01:20:33,000 Speaker 3: It all marries, and it's it coincides with the absolute 1760 01:20:33,360 --> 01:20:36,160 Speaker 3: apex prime of Miles Garrett's Miles Garrett's career. 1761 01:20:37,280 --> 01:20:42,960 Speaker 2: You're exactly right. This group has been assembled perfectly, Thornhill 1762 01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:45,200 Speaker 2: and McLeod perfectly. Just on the back end. You know what, 1763 01:20:45,439 --> 01:20:47,720 Speaker 2: we got so much grief or there was so much 1764 01:20:47,800 --> 01:20:50,240 Speaker 2: question right about our linebackers. Well, look at what our 1765 01:20:50,280 --> 01:20:55,800 Speaker 2: linebackers look like behind a competent defensive line. Here's the thing. 1766 01:20:56,240 --> 01:20:58,560 Speaker 2: Here's what we have right now, and this is what 1767 01:20:58,720 --> 01:21:02,080 Speaker 2: is wild. You have on the Cleveland Browns right now, 1768 01:21:03,240 --> 01:21:07,439 Speaker 2: seven above average to elite defensive linemen. You have got 1769 01:21:08,600 --> 01:21:12,760 Speaker 2: at least four above average to elite linebackers. You've got 1770 01:21:12,920 --> 01:21:16,080 Speaker 2: for sure three above average to elite corners. Yeah, you've 1771 01:21:16,160 --> 01:21:18,200 Speaker 2: got three above average to elite safeties. 1772 01:21:18,600 --> 01:21:19,439 Speaker 7: You have that at. 1773 01:21:19,520 --> 01:21:24,679 Speaker 2: Every every level. You got at every level, go level. 1774 01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:27,920 Speaker 2: That is it's a masterful job. I think the vision 1775 01:21:28,080 --> 01:21:32,960 Speaker 2: and ab getting Jim Schwartz he and depot and Kevin 1776 01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:35,519 Speaker 2: and the scouting department and really culling. Okay, what do 1777 01:21:35,680 --> 01:21:38,120 Speaker 2: we need working out the trade agains? Zidarius Smith from 1778 01:21:39,840 --> 01:21:42,640 Speaker 2: the Minnesota Vikings was incredible. It just all of it 1779 01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:47,639 Speaker 2: was so it's it's been perfect. It's one of those 1780 01:21:47,640 --> 01:21:49,160 Speaker 2: things you imagine seeing and you're like, oh, this is 1781 01:21:49,160 --> 01:21:50,439 Speaker 2: gonna be pretty good. I remember coming out of the 1782 01:21:50,479 --> 01:21:52,040 Speaker 2: joint practice and you know, the goes, yeah, and your 1783 01:21:52,080 --> 01:21:54,639 Speaker 2: defensive line is gonna be a problem. Well, like they 1784 01:21:54,680 --> 01:21:57,799 Speaker 2: are wrecking games completely. 1785 01:21:58,080 --> 01:22:00,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm curious, you know, like I'm not from here, 1786 01:22:01,120 --> 01:22:03,000 Speaker 3: and so I don't have like a point of reference 1787 01:22:03,040 --> 01:22:04,960 Speaker 3: of what you know. I know, clear I know it's 1788 01:22:05,000 --> 01:22:07,599 Speaker 3: clearly been the best defense since the Browns came back 1789 01:22:07,640 --> 01:22:10,320 Speaker 3: to the league, But just historically, what were some of 1790 01:22:10,360 --> 01:22:11,560 Speaker 3: the other ones, And there was a lot of that 1791 01:22:11,640 --> 01:22:15,000 Speaker 3: Michael Dean Perry's stuff. The ninety four Browns defense gave 1792 01:22:15,080 --> 01:22:17,559 Speaker 3: up like two hundred and six points in the entire season. 1793 01:22:17,600 --> 01:22:20,840 Speaker 3: That's Belichick was Saban his defensive coordinator. And then you go, 1794 01:22:21,080 --> 01:22:23,599 Speaker 3: you got to go like way back, you know, beyond 1795 01:22:23,640 --> 01:22:26,880 Speaker 3: that to find something. But no, I think there is 1796 01:22:27,000 --> 01:22:30,360 Speaker 3: a Again, it's early. The eighty five Bears won a 1797 01:22:30,400 --> 01:22:32,160 Speaker 3: Super Bowl. The Legion of Boom won a super Bowl. 1798 01:22:32,920 --> 01:22:36,000 Speaker 3: The Bucks defenses with Derek Brooks like the one super Bowl. 1799 01:22:36,040 --> 01:22:38,680 Speaker 3: The Ravens in two thousands, they won super Bowls very 1800 01:22:39,240 --> 01:22:41,760 Speaker 3: But yeah, that's all that's missing is just you have 1801 01:22:42,000 --> 01:22:45,280 Speaker 3: the the makings and now it's just a matter and 1802 01:22:45,360 --> 01:22:48,120 Speaker 3: you're becoming feared. And that's the other thing is like 1803 01:22:48,240 --> 01:22:49,920 Speaker 3: no one's gonna want to no one's gonna want to 1804 01:22:49,920 --> 01:22:52,479 Speaker 3: play you. And you believe right there's a this is 1805 01:22:52,560 --> 01:22:53,519 Speaker 3: a swaggering group. 1806 01:22:54,600 --> 01:22:55,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, it is. 1807 01:22:55,880 --> 01:22:59,080 Speaker 2: It's unbelievable. Remember we talked last week and going back 1808 01:22:59,080 --> 01:23:01,000 Speaker 2: to our quarterback real quick, because this d is so 1809 01:23:01,120 --> 01:23:04,240 Speaker 2: good and you need to be complimentary. I kind of said, look, 1810 01:23:04,320 --> 01:23:06,320 Speaker 2: quarterbacks under pressure are not supposed to be good. Watson 1811 01:23:06,360 --> 01:23:07,800 Speaker 2: had been under pressure, let but I said what had 1812 01:23:08,000 --> 01:23:10,439 Speaker 2: kind of limited him in the first two weeks was 1813 01:23:10,479 --> 01:23:12,400 Speaker 2: how good he was from clean pockets. And I put 1814 01:23:12,439 --> 01:23:14,800 Speaker 2: together and I mentioned this on the broadcast yesterday that 1815 01:23:15,080 --> 01:23:18,160 Speaker 2: this year from a clean pocket, uh in weeks one 1816 01:23:18,200 --> 01:23:21,040 Speaker 2: and two sixty two point five percent completion, six yards 1817 01:23:21,040 --> 01:23:23,840 Speaker 2: per attempt, eighty four rating. When he was in twenty 1818 01:23:23,920 --> 01:23:25,599 Speaker 2: twenty the leading passer in the league from a clean 1819 01:23:25,640 --> 01:23:30,000 Speaker 2: pocket seventy seven percent, nine yards in attempt, twenty three touchdowns, 1820 01:23:30,040 --> 01:23:32,320 Speaker 2: two picks, a one to twenty one rating. Can I 1821 01:23:32,400 --> 01:23:34,240 Speaker 2: interest you in his stats from a clean pocket yesterday, 1822 01:23:34,400 --> 01:23:37,639 Speaker 2: go twenty three of twenty five, which is ninety two percent, 1823 01:23:38,080 --> 01:23:40,400 Speaker 2: ten yards per attempt, two touchdowns, no picks, and a 1824 01:23:40,439 --> 01:23:43,920 Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty five rating. Yeah, you keep him clean, 1825 01:23:44,320 --> 01:23:46,880 Speaker 2: you get him playing at that level, and your good 1826 01:23:47,040 --> 01:23:50,439 Speaker 2: things are certainly going to happen for the Cleveland Browns. 1827 01:23:50,600 --> 01:23:53,080 Speaker 2: And I think that that was, in my opinion, that 1828 01:23:53,320 --> 01:23:57,560 Speaker 2: was awesome to see from Deshaun Watson to compliment this 1829 01:23:57,680 --> 01:24:00,680 Speaker 2: defense that has been so so good on passes of 1830 01:24:00,760 --> 01:24:02,320 Speaker 2: more than twenty yards in the air four of five 1831 01:24:02,400 --> 01:24:04,400 Speaker 2: for one hundred and sixteen yards, two touchdowns and a 1832 01:24:04,520 --> 01:24:07,080 Speaker 2: perfect rating of one fifty eight point three. We do 1833 01:24:07,200 --> 01:24:09,000 Speaker 2: that we're gonna there will be a lot of games 1834 01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:12,360 Speaker 2: like this. By the way, I've been here since twenty 1835 01:24:12,640 --> 01:24:15,479 Speaker 2: thirteen was my first season. Yeah, I don't know when 1836 01:24:15,560 --> 01:24:17,639 Speaker 2: we had two twenty point wins in a three game 1837 01:24:17,760 --> 01:24:19,400 Speaker 2: stretching quite f I don't know how many games we've 1838 01:24:19,439 --> 01:24:22,080 Speaker 2: won by twenty four in my entire time being here. 1839 01:24:22,720 --> 01:24:26,320 Speaker 3: Not many, not many, No, not that dominant, no the 1840 01:24:26,479 --> 01:24:26,960 Speaker 3: or no chance. 1841 01:24:27,040 --> 01:24:28,759 Speaker 2: The two games at home, I'll say it again, fifty 1842 01:24:28,840 --> 01:24:34,040 Speaker 2: one to six, and and Ryan Tannehill the week before 1843 01:24:34,680 --> 01:24:37,320 Speaker 2: this he was eighty percent, Yeah, eighty three percent. They've 1844 01:24:37,360 --> 01:24:40,120 Speaker 2: beaten the Chargers twenty to twenty four to two forty 1845 01:24:40,160 --> 01:24:42,000 Speaker 2: six touchdown, one hundred and twenty three rating, ran a 1846 01:24:42,080 --> 01:24:46,599 Speaker 2: touchdown into and he was by the way, he threw 1847 01:24:46,680 --> 01:24:48,440 Speaker 2: some incredible balls. 1848 01:24:48,400 --> 01:24:52,519 Speaker 3: Oh my god, I mean like incredible balls, constant duress. 1849 01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:55,240 Speaker 2: He threw like what he had to put him only 1850 01:24:55,280 --> 01:24:57,720 Speaker 2: where a ball could fit, and he did. And it 1851 01:24:57,800 --> 01:25:00,240 Speaker 2: still didn't even lead to completions every time, No, because 1852 01:25:00,240 --> 01:25:02,920 Speaker 2: our defense was so good. Yeah, and the completions he 1853 01:25:03,000 --> 01:25:05,439 Speaker 2: did get were one kind of was a little cam 1854 01:25:05,479 --> 01:25:07,000 Speaker 2: Midge kind of lost his footing and the guy kind 1855 01:25:07,040 --> 01:25:09,040 Speaker 2: of mossed them a little bit. And then the other 1856 01:25:09,240 --> 01:25:12,840 Speaker 2: was a highly contested catch just over the outstretched hand 1857 01:25:12,880 --> 01:25:15,040 Speaker 2: of m jam orson DeAndre Hopkins on the sideline. I 1858 01:25:15,080 --> 01:25:17,679 Speaker 2: mean that that was it. And we had one blown coverage. 1859 01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:18,760 Speaker 1: That was it. 1860 01:25:19,360 --> 01:25:22,880 Speaker 3: That was it, No, it was This is Here's the thing, folks, 1861 01:25:23,640 --> 01:25:26,080 Speaker 3: as you sit here at two and one through three weeks, 1862 01:25:27,320 --> 01:25:31,240 Speaker 3: your defense is so damn good that you're gonna win 1863 01:25:31,320 --> 01:25:33,920 Speaker 3: the majority of the games you play based off of them. 1864 01:25:34,680 --> 01:25:38,760 Speaker 3: If your quarterback is that guy on the rag, then 1865 01:25:38,800 --> 01:25:40,599 Speaker 3: you can beat anybody in the league anytime you play. 1866 01:25:40,680 --> 01:25:41,920 Speaker 3: And then you go make a run it at all. 1867 01:25:42,080 --> 01:25:45,120 Speaker 3: That's all that that's that's what's set up, is it. 1868 01:25:46,080 --> 01:25:49,600 Speaker 2: It's still stunning to me, and I'm again fine with it. 1869 01:25:49,840 --> 01:25:51,880 Speaker 2: I think had we won on Monday night and had 1870 01:25:51,920 --> 01:25:54,280 Speaker 2: a game like we did the first too, for the 1871 01:25:54,320 --> 01:25:56,080 Speaker 2: two home games, if we performed like that, which we 1872 01:25:56,120 --> 01:25:57,519 Speaker 2: could have, I mean, that was a that's a team 1873 01:25:57,560 --> 01:26:00,680 Speaker 2: we can beat by twenty I think there may be 1874 01:26:00,800 --> 01:26:02,760 Speaker 2: be more for three and l like they have to 1875 01:26:02,840 --> 01:26:06,120 Speaker 2: talk about the runs. It is unbelievable how little even 1876 01:26:06,200 --> 01:26:08,320 Speaker 2: what our defense is doing is even being talked about. 1877 01:26:08,400 --> 01:26:10,960 Speaker 3: So Simmons and the Cus did spend a good deal 1878 01:26:11,000 --> 01:26:13,320 Speaker 3: of time on our dominance in the very start of 1879 01:26:13,400 --> 01:26:16,160 Speaker 3: the podcast this morning for the guest lines. Yeah, yeah, 1880 01:26:16,200 --> 01:26:18,880 Speaker 3: they spend a good deal of time talking about that. 1881 01:26:18,960 --> 01:26:22,600 Speaker 2: Anymore until after we gets the lines, otherwise I wouldn't. 1882 01:26:22,400 --> 01:26:24,479 Speaker 3: Well, they don't do that till the end. So, like 1883 01:26:24,560 --> 01:26:27,040 Speaker 3: you could listen to the first and it's in the 1884 01:26:27,120 --> 01:26:31,320 Speaker 3: beginning that that of how dominant the defense is. But 1885 01:26:31,400 --> 01:26:33,840 Speaker 3: you're right, it is and it's you know, we that's 1886 01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:36,000 Speaker 3: been a theme really of the entire offseason. Is there 1887 01:26:36,840 --> 01:26:39,759 Speaker 3: anything that we get in terms of people if you're looking, 1888 01:26:40,080 --> 01:26:43,240 Speaker 3: you know, it's funny. It was the theme on Saturday 1889 01:26:43,320 --> 01:26:46,160 Speaker 3: Night for the Buckeyes, Ohio against the world, right, and 1890 01:26:46,280 --> 01:26:50,040 Speaker 3: it's the theme today for us, right, like there is 1891 01:26:50,479 --> 01:26:54,120 Speaker 3: for different reasons. But any any sort of good will, 1892 01:26:54,240 --> 01:26:57,320 Speaker 3: any sort of affirmation that you're looking for from national people, 1893 01:26:57,680 --> 01:27:00,360 Speaker 3: will have to be earned over a long period of time, 1894 01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:03,400 Speaker 3: and it will be very probably toughly earned. 1895 01:27:03,400 --> 01:27:05,519 Speaker 2: I'd have to be earned by winning your division going 1896 01:27:05,560 --> 01:27:06,200 Speaker 2: on postseason. 1897 01:27:06,240 --> 01:27:08,800 Speaker 3: You're going to have to really. Yeah, you're you're not 1898 01:27:08,800 --> 01:27:10,840 Speaker 3: getting anything easy this season, and that's fine because I 1899 01:27:10,880 --> 01:27:12,240 Speaker 3: don't think this team would want it. I think this 1900 01:27:12,320 --> 01:27:15,640 Speaker 3: team is more than fine with that awful impressive I. 1901 01:27:15,720 --> 01:27:18,720 Speaker 2: Mean, yeah, I read Football Morning in America and you 1902 01:27:18,840 --> 01:27:20,640 Speaker 2: had to go a long way to even see our 1903 01:27:21,000 --> 01:27:22,800 Speaker 2: team name mentioned, which it was not really it was 1904 01:27:22,840 --> 01:27:25,080 Speaker 2: more Miles Garrett was mentioned.

Can that be moved? 1912 01:27:41,280 --> 01:27:44,160 Speaker 3: Maybe because if you're if you're four and oh, you 1913 01:27:44,240 --> 01:27:46,640 Speaker 3: don't think four and oh, that's not America's game of 1914 01:27:46,640 --> 01:27:49,240 Speaker 3: the week.

I hope it 1929 01:28:21,680 --> 01:28:22,360 Speaker 3: stays at one. 1930 01:28:22,320 --> 01:28:24,240 Speaker 4: But I mean I would think it will probably stay 1931 01:28:24,240 --> 01:28:27,840 Speaker 4: at one because it's also like first weekend MLB playoffs. 1932 01:28:27,760 --> 01:28:30,559 Speaker 3: So yeah, I mean, San Francisco is going to be undefeated. 1933 01:28:30,600 --> 01:28:32,000 Speaker 3: I don't even know who they play this week. I 1934 01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:35,200 Speaker 3: don't think it matters who they play the next couple 1935 01:28:35,240 --> 01:28:37,720 Speaker 3: of weeks. But you're talking about if you get a 1936 01:28:37,760 --> 01:28:39,320 Speaker 3: win and you're at three and one and they're at 1937 01:28:39,760 --> 01:28:40,680 Speaker 3: four and oh, five and. 1938 01:28:40,720 --> 01:28:46,800 Speaker 2: Oh the forty nine ers who are a dominant three 1939 01:28:46,880 --> 01:28:51,720 Speaker 2: and oh Cardinals, Cardinals host the Cardinals. 1940 01:28:52,240 --> 01:28:55,200 Speaker 4: And then the week before they play US, I believe 1941 01:28:55,280 --> 01:28:58,800 Speaker 4: they have yes Sunday Night football at Dallas.
