Speaker 2: I'm sad about it.

12
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 3: Me too, because this is myriad reason this has become

13
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 3: appointment listening. Yeah, these Victory Fridays are awesome. The brainchild,

14
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 3: the collective brainchild of me, you and the great Gibbe, mostly.

15
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 2: You and Gibe. I will say, well, no, I think

16
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 2: we did some of this on air and we were like,

17
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 2: got there and then give a took. I think I

18
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 2: had the colonel. You had the Colonel. I poured water

19
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 2: on it. Gibb A nurtured it.

20
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 4: He nurtured it.

21
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,960
Speaker 2: He was the farmer nurtured it, and he popped it

22
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,559
Speaker 2: and he took it to market. Baby yeah, and it's

23
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,960
Speaker 2: been awesome and we hope you've enjoyed him. We've enjoyed him.

24
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 2: And we need to be a perennial double digit win team.

25
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,839
Speaker 2: That's I think that's clear. You've got to win dead games,

26
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 2: and I think.

27
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 4: We could get away with We have to have a

28
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:32,400
Speaker 4: winning record, and.

29
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 2: You have to have you have to have something worthy

30
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 2: of reliving friend and that is something that we had

31
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 2: in spades this year. Playoffs and and this game against

32
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 2: the Jets.

33
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 3: This was football nirvana for a football town. I mean

34
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 3: it really was. It was night game, national television, opportunity

35
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 3: to clinch your playoff birth.

36
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:00,919
Speaker 4: Cleveland was in rare for We were.

37
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 3: In the all whites Yep, beautiful, looking great, it was

38
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 3: perfect Donovan on the call, Nick Chubbs smashing the guitar.

39
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 3: Such an just a special, special, special night and really

40
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 3: one where this all the magic. It had all the

41
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 3: little pieces of all the little magic. You know, a

42
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 3: Ronnie Hickman pick six, Yep, Flacco wheeling and Delan. You

43
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 3: were playing a pass defense that hadn't given up a

44
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 3: three hundred yard passer in thirty two games, and he

45
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 3: either had it at halftime or by half. The first

46
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 3: pass the second half, so I had it by half.

47
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,959
Speaker 3: You had the crazy play where he gets clubbed in

48
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 3: the head, spins out, gets it to Ford, he runs

49
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 3: through six people, Donovan's losing his mind, and he scores.

50
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,079
Speaker 3: It was just it was every Elijah Moore gets a

51
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 3: touch on. Remember Amari was a late scratch. This is

52
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 3: coming off of Amar's record second game, and then he

53
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 3: doesn't play the following Thursday, and Elijah scores in the

54
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 3: first half. It was everything you wanted. I'm pretty sure

55
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,640
Speaker 3: the halftime score and I want to make sure thirty

56
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 3: four seventeen it was. And it was a party. And

57
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 3: let me tell you something, that stadium was rocking that night.

58
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 3: There was a buzz pregame. It all lived up to it.

59
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 3: The game was great, and then afterwards Cleveland partied into

60
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 3: the night baby, and it was glorious.

61
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 2: The two most what did you say a football for

62
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 2: a football mad town?

63
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 3: Was it?

64
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 4: I don't even remember. It was so good, thank you,

65
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 4: But the only thing I could I'll get to hear.

66
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,359
Speaker 2: There are two of these since I've been around the franchise.

67
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 2: It was this one and then it was the open

68
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 2: the Fridge game both Jets. Yeah, but it was the

69
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 2: promiser both Thursday nights and that was the same way

70
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 2: where that night it never stopped. The party didn't stop

71
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 2: that Thursday went into Friday. Same thing. Here, this is

72
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 2: you and the Hoff Tomcat and around all night we're

73
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 2: having a great time. Was there Ceciliano was in the

74
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 2: mix like it had all of it and it it

75
00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 2: was It was such a football gift to this fan

76
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 2: base because you know, the last time you made the

77
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 2: postseason and it was COVID. The only thing that was

78
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 2: missing is all of you, and so you did not

79
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 2: have this. We didn't have it. It was something that

80
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 2: we had been waiting for for a long time and

81
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 2: then it got to happen. Here it got to happen.

82
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 2: The other thing I think it was really cool about

83
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 2: this one, buddy, is it was over in the first

84
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 2: quarter and you knew it. Yeah, so you could kind

85
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 2: of just chill. Yeah, you could kind of just enjoy it.

86
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 2: You weren't on the edge of your seat. It was

87
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 2: just pure joy to watch. It was they never really

88
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 2: got close anytime that they started to. It was done

89
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 2: and it was the Hickman picked six. At that point,

90
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,479
Speaker 2: you go, okay, you're good, twenty to seven. I'll see

91
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 2: on down the road. We're going to the postseason. Let's live.

92
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's live. And boy boy did we and it

93
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 3: was so much. I remember we were playing against Trevor

94
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 3: Simon too, so once I was like, all right, we're

95
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 3: up twenty seventy, Yeah, this game, good night, Irene, We'll

Speaker 3: go ahead and take this w But it was it

97
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 3: was just and I'll never forget number one getting to

98
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 3: be there next to Jim, and I'm pretty sure we

99
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 3: had said other than the COVID game, the Browns hadn't

100
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:02,480
Speaker 3: clinched the playoffs.

101
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 4: At home, it was like since the Bernie they have

102
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 4: been ninety four, yeah something at home.

103
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 3: It was basically like, yeah, thirty plus years that you

104
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 3: would have this as a city.

105
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, which is incredible when you think about it.

106
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 3: And then I remember after the game, the players like

107
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 3: it was senior night in college, running the outer track,

108
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 3: high five in fans, hanging out with fans, having a

109
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 3: cocktail with a fan, like just all of it was

110
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 3: so cooling.

111
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 4: I'm talking veterans, young guys.

112
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 2: Everybody.

113
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,440

Speaker 3: It was just such a special special nights. One of

115
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 3: my favorite nights of my entire career easily. It was magical.

116
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 3: It meant a great deal to me to be there

117
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,839
Speaker 3: and to be on the call of that game with

118
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 3: the iconic Jim Donovan. That was that was a very

119
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 3: special moment, given everything he had gone through that year

120
00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 3: to get there to that point. And he was real

121
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 3: kind of that was kind of he was certainly on

122
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,799
Speaker 3: the ascent yep, and was just he was so great

123
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:06,720
Speaker 3: and it was it was.

124
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,840
Speaker 5: Just, well, that's the legendary I mean his call at

125
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 5: the end, you are cordially invited to the postseason.

126
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was a real deal. Yeah, that was the

127
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,919
Speaker 2: real deal. The other thing that this one provided was

128
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 2: you're coming off of the Houston game yep, the dismantling yep.

129
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 2: And then you house these guys and you say, Okay,

130
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 2: Flacco's thrown for three hundred every time we every game,

131
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,799
Speaker 2: who can't we beat? Like this defense is pretty hard?

132
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 2: Like we're kind of ready to roll here into this postseason,

133
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 2: Like let's make some noise, let's make a run to

134
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 2: the AFC Championship game. There were no delusions you're gonna

135
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 2: go beat my homes, but God with that defense of

136
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 2: the way Flacco was playing, why not let's go make

137
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,720
Speaker 2: a run, So we weren't pushed back to reality like

138
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,600
Speaker 2: we were in the playoffs by we don't you don't

139
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 2: have that yet. So in the moment coming out of this,

140
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 2: you feel like, let's go win the damn super Bowl

141
00:06:58,080 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 2: with this guy.

142
00:06:58,520 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, why not?

143
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 3: He's on fire. Chief had six for one thirty four.

144
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 3: I remember one of the big catches I think on

145
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 3: one of the first drives was Flacco threw a ball

146
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,840
Speaker 3: that I think everybody was sure was going to get

147
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 3: picked and he had a just high enough over the

148
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 3: linebacker got it to Chief, who made a great catch. Yeah,

149
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 3: you're like, why not, why can't we do this? And

150
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 3: we still kind of came out of it. Now, by

151
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 3: the way, I'll give I'll give either one of you

152
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 3: a hearty handshake and congratulations. If you can name the

153
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 3: punter and kicker for the Cleveland Browns in this game.

154
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 2: No, I know, obviously Hopkins go down in the previous game,

155
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 2: but I don't have any point of reference.

156
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 4: Phil Dawson, Riley Patterson kicked.

157
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 3: I remember that, and I'm pretty sure the guy's first

158
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 3: name was Matt Hack was the punter h A A

159
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 3: c K.

160
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 2: I have no remember, no recollection of Matt Hack.

161
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 3: If that's it, we're gonna we're gonna look it up

162
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 3: right now for the fans out there. But that, in

163
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:55,119
Speaker 3: some ways, it's so typical of this season, right, Yeah,

164
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 3: I mean.

165
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 4: You got Pickman with a pick six.

166
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 3: He wasn't even undrafted free agent, wasn't even supposed to play.

167
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 3: You got you know, Flacco wasn't even on the team.

168
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 3: He ends up with three oh nine. So what did

169
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 3: he have in the first half? I go, I'm looking

170
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 3: at this game book here, so it had to be

171
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 3: close to it.

172
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 4: I don't know if we'll get the halftime stats in.

173
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 3: Here, but just an incredible game. Sixteen tackles from Taki

174
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 3: Taki eleven and two tackles from last from Jeremiah Usu Kormoad,

175
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 3: Anthony Bell had a nice game. You had Miles getting

176
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 3: a sack and four quarterback hits. I mean, it was

177
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 3: just everything you wanted. Flacco here was it? Two ninety six,

178
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 3: sixteen to twenty two, two ninety six, three touchdowns, one

179
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 3: thirty five and this was the best pass defense in

180
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 3: the league.

181
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, And he said, all right, good can I interest

182
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 2: you in that and then it was kind of done

183
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,679
Speaker 2: from that night. This this this game came comes three

184
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 2: days after Christmas, and it's the gift that I think

185
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 2: everybody was waiting for.

186
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 3: And you knew you were in New Year's to celebrate

187
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 3: on the weekend.

188
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was so cool. It was in Hope and

189
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 2: Hope right right?

190
00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 4: Why camp for more?

191
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 2: Why and all of that, So you're gonna get to

192
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 2: relive all of that among the things Matt Matt Hack

193
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 2: could have it. Joe Flacco came in studio with us

194
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,439
Speaker 2: the next week, and I remember when he was out

195
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 2: with us saying like, Okay, this is what it's like

196
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,720
Speaker 2: when you have a guy. This is a franch what

197
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 2: a franchise quarterback is like. Who is comfortable in any circumstance,

198
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,080
Speaker 2: can kiss all the babies, sign all the autographs, do

199
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:25,319
Speaker 2: anything at any time.

200
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 3: Face.

201
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 2: He was so beloved at that time and so comfortable

202
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 2: with it and had the time of his life. He

203
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 2: was having the time of his life that month playing

204
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 2: for us.

205
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 4: So if you remember, he had his whole family was

206
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 4: at this game.

207
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, and people some people have even forgotten the

208
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 3: Jets connection and that he was the quarterback of the

209
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 3: Jets in that ridiculous.

210
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 4: Week two game the year prior.

211
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 2: I didn't.

212
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 4: I certainly did not.

213
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 3: My favorite part of that game was seeing him with

214
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,079
Speaker 3: his family afterwards, and then he's coming into the locker room.

215
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 3: We're in the in the tunnel between kind of the

216
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 3: locker room where you kind of turned left and again

217
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 3: in that corridor the press area.

218
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 4: Is right to left.

219
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:09,319
Speaker 3: And I remember I had said to him after the

220
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 3: first game, you want to go you you keep this going,

221
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 3: You're going to be more popular here than you ever

222
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 3: were in Baltimore, even though you won a super Bowl there.

223
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 3: And he kind of at the time laughed. And after

224
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 3: this game, and I know we talked about in the interview,

225
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,199
Speaker 3: he was like, you're so right.

226
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,080
Speaker 4: In My family thinks this is crazy. It's nuts.

227
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 3: And the Browns fans the fact that Joe Flacco could

228
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 3: ever become the most popular person in Cleveland for a

229
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 3: good couple months, and second may as well have been eighth,

230
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 3: and there were every they loved everybody on this team,

231
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 3: but its Flacco fever was running wild.

232
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 4: Brother. Yep, it's unbelieved.

233
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 3: It's almost unfable. It's one of those things, and it's unfortunate.

234
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,439
Speaker 3: Obviously you understand what happened in this off season and

235
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 3: now he's I think he's with the Colts. But it

236
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 3: was like such, it was almost like a shooting star.

237
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 2: It's a comet.

238
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,560
Speaker 3: It was a comet and we had it and this

239
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 3: night was the culmination, and unfortunately it would become it

240
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,559
Speaker 3: would be the last game he won as a Cleveland Brown.

241
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 3: Didn't play the next week, didn't play the next week,

242
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 3: and then the playoff lost in Houston. But just and

243
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:21,679
Speaker 3: I think this is an iconic night. I think this

244
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:23,960
Speaker 3: is a night that is the one that gives you

245
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 3: the fuel.

246
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 4: You know, more and more and more.

247
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,840
Speaker 3: What would it be like, Darius Sultree, what would be

248
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 3: like to host a playoff game? Because that atmosphere was

249
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 3: so electric that the thought of hosting a playoff game

250
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 3: and our say, would be unbelievable. And we have Joe

251
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 3: Flacco in many ways to thank for it.

252
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 2: Well said, sir, this is gonna be a fun one

253
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 2: to relive. You're gonna begin so coming up next you

00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 5: Onto the opening drive of the game, the Browns strike first.

279
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:44,439
Speaker 5: It's a seventy five yard touchdown drive. Here's Jim Donovan,

280
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 5: Nathan Zigura, and GIROD Sherry with a call on the

281
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,959
Speaker 5: University Hospitals Cleveland Brown's radio network.

282
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 3: Since becoming the brown starter, Joe Flacco three and one.

283
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 3: He leads the NFL in passing yards, he leads the

284
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 3: NFL in passing touchdowns, and he's coming off of three

285
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 3: straight three yard games. Taking on a Jets pass the

286
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 3: that is not allowed a three hundred yard passer in

287
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 3: thirty two straight. And remember he does not have Amari Cooper.

288
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 3: He does have Jerome Ford in the backfield. Two receivers

289
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 3: left motion off the left side by David Bell. They

290
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 3: extend the ball.

291
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 6: Here's Ford running right, dips outside twenty five out twenty nine.

292
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 6: He's out to the thirty. He got five five yard pickup.

293
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 6: Second down in five. John Franklin Meyers over on that

294
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 6: left corner makes the tackle for the Jets.

295
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 3: And Jim we hope this is the start of a

296
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 3: successful running attack as the Browns are going quick here

297
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 3: second down five.

298
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 6: They have it at their own thirty for the long

299
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 6: running back and on a quick snapcount play action fake.

300
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 6: Here's flacko back looking throw's middle open.

301
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 7: Cod put a flag down.

302
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 6: Elijah Moore made the catch out of the forty four

303
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 6: yard line off the Browns. It's gonna be pass interference

304
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 6: on Elijah Mora as he worked against TJ Reed over

305
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 6: the middle of the field.

306
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 3: Nathan, Yeah, you need Elijah Moore to step up for Amari.

307
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 6: Coopers offense number eight, the ten yard penalty still second down.

308
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 3: So he was running a deep curl route and the

309
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 3: officials are asserting that at the top of that route,

310
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 3: Elijah Moore pushed off of dj Reid, creating the space

311
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 3: and that allowed him to get open, and hence they

312
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 3: threw the flag. That looked like a pretty good route

313
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 3: to me. A little bit of contact, but nothing that

314
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 3: I thought would draw a flag, certainly this early in

315
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 3: the game. But now they've got a problem and he's

316
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 3: second down.

317
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 6: In fifteen Ford the running back Flacco shotgun Fords on

318
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 6: his right hip. They putting Djoku in motion. Three receivers left,

319
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 6: one right, screen pass right dropped. Fourts had troubles sometimes

320
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 6: catching that ball on the right flat and though that

321
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 6: ball was about kneecap level, you would still like.

322
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 3: To have him catch that. Yeah, you go back to

323
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 3: last week, he had a couple drop screens, one by

324
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 3: Derome Ford, one by Kareem Hunt, and all of a sudden,

325
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 3: that was, by the way, a horrible cause. I see

326
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 3: another replay on Elijah Moore. He did nothing on that

327
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 3: top of that route there, and now the Browns backed

328
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 3: up third and a long way to go.

329
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 6: Third down in fifteen. Kareem Hun, who's into the game.

330
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 6: He's in a slot in the right empty shotgun for Flaco.

331
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 6: Three receivers left to right from his own twenty. They

332
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 6: need fifteen yards. A deep drop throws middle and it's caught.

333
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 6: In Joku's cut of thirty thirty five forty forty five,

334
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 6: he's to the fifty.

335
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 7: He's in the forty five on the Jets, a big play.

336
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 6: He was wide open, but then a big run after

337
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 6: the catch Tony Adams brought him down hat than for

338
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 6: thirty six.

339
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 3: That's what he has done all year. David Joku after

340
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 3: the catch leads all tight ends and yards after the reception,

341
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 3: and since Joe Flacco's come in he's third in yards,

342
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 3: first and touchdowns, and what a big playoff third.

343
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 6: And fifty for eligible fifty three Nick Carroll. End of

344
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 6: the game, he's eligible first and ten. Now the Browns

345
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 6: have it at the forty four yard line. Jerome Ford

346
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 6: deep in the backfield. Nick Harris will join him in

347
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 6: an offset I Flaco under center and on first and ten,

348
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,560
Speaker 6: wait is and takes the snap. Turrens gives it's fort

349
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 6: darts out Todd. He's got the left corner. He's to

350
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 6: the forty with a cutback. He's in the thirty five.

351
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 6: He's in the thirty and up near another first down.

352
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 6: They'll give him the first down at the Jet thirty

353
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,879
Speaker 6: four in on the tackle, Whitehead the safety and DJ.

354
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 3: Read the corner. Two carries fifteen yards for Jerome Ford

355
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 3: right there. Bounce it outside the Brown slide. Did a

356
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,919
Speaker 3: good job collapsing down creating that space. If the Browns

357
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 3: can get the ground game going, jim It will vote

358
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,919
Speaker 3: very well. That's the weakness of the Jets defense, certainly

359
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,119
Speaker 3: is not their pass defense. Ten yards to McGain and

360
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 3: a first down.

361
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 6: Three receivers out wide to the right, Ford in the

362
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:32,400
Speaker 6: backfield by himself. Harrison Bryant tight left side, David Belt

363
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 6: in motion right to left, Flaco takes it, gives it

364
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 6: right side. Here's Ford bottled up. He gets out of

365
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 6: a tackle, squeezes left, and he gets back to the

366
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 6: thirty five yard line and a loss of one. It

367
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 6: will be second down. He had eleven. Tony Adams, the

368
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 6: safety is in to make the tackle. Second in long Yeah, Jets.

369
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,920
Speaker 3: Collapse that left side of the defensive front, the right

370
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 3: side of the Browns line, pushing Wyatt Teller back.

371
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 4: Nowhere to go for Jerome Ford, and that's been a problem.

372
00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 3: Second most in the NFL runs stop at or behind

373
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage for.

374
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 4: Jerome Ford this season.

375
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 6: Second down and eleven at the jet thirty five, Browns

376
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 6: send out Cedric Tillman Junior goes wide to the right.

377
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 6: Two receivers near side left motion by Timman comes right

378
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 6: to left. Fod in the back field with Flaco shot

379
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 6: gun play action fake, Joe rolls left, Joe looks middle.

380
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 7: Joe froze at Joe Coo caught it fifteen. He's at

381
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:22,439
Speaker 7: the ten. He's at the seven.

382
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 6: The chief with an acrobatic catch as he pulls the

383
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:30,679
Speaker 6: ball around the horn and they're inside the mids red sauce,

384
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 6: true Cecilia pasta sauce, Pesti, Gredius, best quality, best taste,

385
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:37,399
Speaker 6: Oh molto bene.

386
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,920
Speaker 3: Joe Flacco has been the best in the NFL. Off

387
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 3: of play accident and right there put the ball right

388
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 3: over the outstretched fingertips of the five time pro bowler C. J.

389
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 3: Mosley won a throw and the chief he says, Noah,

390
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:49,679
Speaker 3: Maari Cooper.

391
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,359
Speaker 4: I'll be the number one option.

392
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 6: Twenty eight yards on the game first and goal at

393
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 6: the Jet seven. Three receivers out wide right. Elijah Moore

394
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,879
Speaker 6: will be the wide to Joku to the left, shotgun snap.

395
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 6: Here's Flacco looking Troe's left sideline.

396
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,160
Speaker 7: Caught Ford's gun. It pay damn touchdown.

397
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 6: How the Browns take the opening kick on and on

398
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 6: a night where they can't punched their technit, they just

399
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 6: punched the Jets right in the melt.

400
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 3: Jerome Ford scores on the opening drive for the second

401
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 3: straight week. The Brown score on the opening drive for

402
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 3: the fourth time in five games with Joe Flaco. And

403
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 3: you are right, Jim, with the emotion, the electricity in

404
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 3: this crowd. You go back to that third and fifteen,

405
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 3: What a huge conversion. Two plays of the chief and

406
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 3: then one to Jerome Ford touchdown Brown and now part of.

407
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,679
Speaker 6: The kicking game that's so important. Riley Patterson in for

408
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:46,400
Speaker 6: the extra point. Matt Hawk will hold snap back ball down,

409
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 6: He's into it. The kickers up and it is gun

410
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 6: eleven ten left to go in the first quarter. Want

411
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 6: to start, We take a time out. With the score

412
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 6: of the brown seven.

413
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 7: Of the Jets. Nothing.

414
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 5: The Jets would answer to tie the g game at seven,

415
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,639
Speaker 5: but later in the quarter of the Browns would extend

416
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 5: their lead to thirteen to seven after a Kareem Hunt

417
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:06,359
Speaker 5: rushing touchdown.

418
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,399
Speaker 6: And it's gonna be at least right now an empty

419
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 6: shotgun foremationed Joe Flacco in the gun from his own

420
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,359
Speaker 6: twenty five two receivers left. Now he's gonna motion and

421
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,199
Speaker 6: bring Jerome forward back into the backfield with him. And

422
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 6: so he goes to his left side and on first

423
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,479
Speaker 6: down in ten play clock is at one. He snaps it,

424
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 6: takes it, gives it and now rolls to the right

425
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 6: as he faked it to Ford, throws down the sideline,

426
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:31,200
Speaker 6: almost picked off over on the far sideline by Tony Adams,

427
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 6: the safety who had a pick flast.

428
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 3: Week against Washington. He did. He's got two on the season,

429
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 3: and I think right there, when Joe Flacco got out

430
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 3: of the pocket, he thought Harrison Bryant was gonna stop

431
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 3: on the sideline, much like some of the passes he's

432
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 3: thrown to David Joku in those scramble drill situations. Unfortunately,

433
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 3: Bryant turned it upfield and the Browns dodged a bullet.

434
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 6: Second down and ten again. The line of scrimmage's their

435
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,120
Speaker 6: own twenty five yard line. We have eight minutes straight

436
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 6: up left to go.

437
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 3: First quarter.

438
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,680
Speaker 6: The game is tied. He lines you more and goes

439
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,440
Speaker 6: out far side wide to the right. Sauce Gardener him

440
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 6: three receivers in near side left. Ford remains the running

441
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,919
Speaker 6: back shotgun for Joe Flacco. Waits on the snap, and

442
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 6: now Ford goes to his right side, takes the snap,

443
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:11,120
Speaker 6: turns this time it's a run.

444
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 3: Ford's got it.

445
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,880
Speaker 6: Daylight twenty five, thirty thirty five, forty forty one yard line.

446
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:17,920
Speaker 3: Where's the Browns running game?

447
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 7: It's here tonight.

448
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 6: Quincy Williams, the linebacker, brings Ford down.

449
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 3: He got sixteen. That's four carries for thirty yards for

450
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 3: Ford and Joe Flacco did a great job. He recognized CJ.

451
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 3: Moseley blitzing off of the left side. He audible. The

452
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,520
Speaker 3: play switched it so that run went to the right

453
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 3: side and there was no linebacker there.

454
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 2: Big board sixty eight is eligible.

455
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 6: That's Michael Dunn in the backfield right now, it's Jerome Ford.

456
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 6: Cedric Tillman Junior out wide to the right. Flaco on

457
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,120
Speaker 6: first down gives the ball. Here comes Ford running left.

458
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 6: He's in the forty five leaves outside Hays to a

459
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 6: fifty Hays to the Jet forty eight yard line and

460
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 6: up near another first down. He's got it on an

461
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 6: eleven yard run. Jordan Whitehead brought him down.

462
00:21:59,560 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 7: You know who.

463
00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 6: This reminds me of Tiernis Johnson against the broncosy.

464
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,400
Speaker 3: Thursday night, against the Broncos a couple of years ago.

465
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 3: And now Jerome Ford off to a great start right

466
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 3: though he got Ethan Posaga and Botonio pulling out in

467
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,719
Speaker 3: front of him. That's the classic Browns pin pull, and

468
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 3: that one worked this ground game. Five carries forty one

469
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 3: yards for Jerome Ford. It will be Chillman, Bell and

470
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:20,680
Speaker 3: Moore all out far side.

471
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 6: Why to the right end of the game at running

472
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 6: back Pierre Strong motioned down the line by David Bell

473
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,160
Speaker 6: from a right to a line flaco on a long,

474
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:29,880
Speaker 6: loud cow turns boot.

475
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:30,360
Speaker 7: Legs and out right.

476
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 6: He lost the ball as he fell down back inside

477
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 6: his own territory, back at.

478
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 3: Cleveland forty three.

479
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 6: But he got in there and pulled it away from

480
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 6: Will McDonald.

481
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 3: And thank goodness he did, because this turf is a

482
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,119
Speaker 3: little bit slick. There's been a lot of rain in

483
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 3: Cleveland and you could see it right there. He lost

484
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,200
Speaker 3: his footing and just kind of has that left foot

485
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:50,720
Speaker 3: came out from under him, was able to get that

486
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:52,680
Speaker 3: ball back. The Browns were looking for a shot play

487
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,199
Speaker 3: there with Elijah Moore downfield.

488
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:56,240
Speaker 7: So they lose eight.

489
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 6: But the sunny side of that story is at least

490
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 6: he got the ball back in the shotgun. Three receivers

491
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 6: up wide right, two near side to the left. On

492
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 6: second down and eighteen, he's got the snap and a

493
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 6: deep drop and he's looking. He fires and it's caught

494
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 6: and a tin joker with a stiff arm to the

495
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,000
Speaker 6: fifty yard line and he goes down at the fifty

496
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,680
Speaker 6: brought down by the great linebacker see Jay Moseley.

497
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 3: They get six shutting up third and twelve. Yeah, and

498
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:22,880
Speaker 3: that was good kind of at least get yourself back

499
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 3: towards the six. Get that yardage back there. The Jets

500
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 3: played a shell coverage. He had to check it down

501
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 3: and that's for the chief. The third catch of the day,

502
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 3: seventy yards.

503
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 6: So they're right on the belt buckle of the yelf

504
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 6: at the fifty yard line. They're one for one on

505
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:37,640
Speaker 6: third down, and they're third down and twelve right now

506
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 6: from the fifty five and a half left to go.

507
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 6: First quarter, and the game is even hunt in the

517
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 3: That is the second highest total of his career, and

518
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 3: he's got the Browns in business. And how many big

519
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 3: third down catches can he make?

520
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 6: That was third and a dozen, and before that he

521
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 6: had a third and fifty two receivers right, one left,

522
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 6: Hunt the running back, Flacco under center from the seven.

00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 6: left and a wingman on the right. Flacco looking looking, looking, looking,

632
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 6: firing underneath. Elijah Moore caught it hanging out over the

633
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 6: twenty five yard line where he got cut down at

634
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 6: the twenty seven by the great Sauce Gardner.

635
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,720
Speaker 3: It's a I love that name. It's a five yard game.

636
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 3: It is a great name. And listen, that's a great

637
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 3: play on first down. You got to give this offensive

638
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:50,480
Speaker 3: line some credit. They're giving Joe Flacco some time. He's

639
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 3: eight to twelve for one hundred and forty nine yards.

640
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 3: He got sacked once, but that's when he tripped. The

641
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,240
Speaker 3: line has done a good job because that was probably

642
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 3: his fourth option on that play to get it to

643
00:29:58,560 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 3: Elijah Moore.

644
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,840
Speaker 6: It will be Elijah more going out wide to the left.

645
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:04,320
Speaker 6: He's got David Bell with him, one receiver near side,

646
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 6: right the running back Pierre Strong. Second down and four

647
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 6: quick toss left side goes to Elijah Moore.

648
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 3: Can he run and get it?

649
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 6: He's pushed to his own sideline and DJ Reid get

650
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 6: over there with Tony Adams and they knock him out

651
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 6: abound short of.

652
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:16,720
Speaker 3: The first down.

653
00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 6: He's gonna need about three more as he gets it

654
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 6: out to the twenty eight yard line, it will be

655
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:21,800
Speaker 6: third and three.

656
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 3: The problem with that throw was that it was behind him.

657
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 3: He had to turn around turn his back to the

658
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 3: line of scrimmage to catch it, which means he really

659
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 3: can only go one way outside and David Bell was

660
00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 3: expecting him to catch that go inside. Just a little

661
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 3: bit of an off throw there by Flacco still third

662
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 3: and short.

663
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 6: Third down and three. They have it at their own

664
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 6: twenty eight yard line. Tilman goes on wide left, three

665
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,959
Speaker 6: receivers to the right, Jordan nakens Now, the tight end

666
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 6: goes in motion right to left. The running back is

667
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:48,800
Speaker 6: Hunt Flaco back on third and three looking throwing and

668
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 6: it is cut. How did the function to Elijah More

669
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,960
Speaker 6: He pulled it away from the jet defender and takes

670
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,800
Speaker 6: it over the fifty down on the forty eight yard line.

671
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 6: Mike oh Carter look like he had a tech. Elijah

672
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 6: Moore stole the ball.

673
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 3: That's gonna be on every quarterback room in the league's

674
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:10,000
Speaker 3: tape because what Elijah Morton did was play cornerback. He

675
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:14,240
Speaker 3: got the PBu from Carter and then caught the deflection himself.

676
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 3: What a huge first down. What a conversion by Elijah Moore.

677
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 3: That's three straight catches for him on this drive.

678
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 6: Twenty four yards on that game, and the Browns have

679
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 6: at first and ten at the jet forty eight. Now

680
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 6: they got a hurry. That play clock is underneath ten

681
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 6: in the backfield. The running back is Pierre Strong underneath center.

682
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,520
Speaker 6: Flacco is a play clock is at won. He got

683
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 6: it off. He fakes it. He's got Hankins wide up

684
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 6: and down the field. Hey caught it at the twenty

685
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 6: five at the twenty head that's the first down.

686
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 7: What a fake by Flacco.

687
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 3: Jordan Akins is saying he wasn't touchdown. The officials disagree.

688
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 3: But Joe Flacco on that hard play action is so good.

689
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 3: They faked it this way. It's the ball handling, hides

690
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:57,960
Speaker 3: it behind him, boots out to the left, and we

691
00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 3: both saw Aikens wide open. He put it on him

692
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:04,600
Speaker 3: for a big gain of twenty eight yards. Jim Joe

693
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 3: Flacco wheeling and dealing already two hundred and two yards

694
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 3: against an elite pass defense, first to Jen They have

695
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 3: it at the twenty.

696
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 6: They're going into the dog pound end zone and Joku

697
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 6: off the line far side left, three receivers near side right,

698
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 6: Belle Tillman, Moore and in motionist Tillman. The running back

699
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,560
Speaker 6: is Strong, shotgun snap. They're gonna give it to Strong.

700
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 6: He loops it left. He's inside the twenty and fights

701
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 6: his way down near the seventeen, near the sixteen yard line,

702
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 6: and the Browns are inside that Mitch red zone. True

703
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:37,160
Speaker 6: Sicilian pastasav's best ingredients, best quality, best taste.

704
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 3: CJ. Moseley made the tackle.

705
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:40,000
Speaker 4: How about that?

706
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 3: Pierre Strong was hit kind of behind the line of scrimmage,

707
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 3: shrugged off a couple of tackles and made some plays.

708
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 3: But on this drive it opened up with three passes

709
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 3: Flacco to Elijah More, two former Jets, getting the Browns

710
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 3: down the field. And then it was a former Texan

711
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 3: Jordan Akins on the big play.

712
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:54,960
Speaker 7: Checking down six.

713
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 6: They're at the seventeen and Joeku and Harrison Bryant tight

714
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 6: on the left side, Hillman near side to the right,

715
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,440
Speaker 6: with David Bell in the backfield. Now Pierre's Strong. Flacco

716
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 6: throws down the middle, Bryan caught it. He's at the

717
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 6: ten and should have a first and goal near the

718
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,479
Speaker 6: ten yard line, although he might have gotten a bad spot.

719
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 6: I thought he was gonna get to the nine. They

720
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 6: put him near the ten. They need to get on

721
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 6: the ten yard line. The tackle was made by Quincy

722
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 6: Williams and C. J. Mosley, and he'll be third down

723
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:24,320
Speaker 6: in less than one.

724
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, Joe Flacco has been very good at sneaking it

725
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:28,680
Speaker 3: for the Cleveland Browns, so that's what I would expect there.

726
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 3: Don't give Quinn Williams a chance to penetrate on a handoff.

727
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 3: Just get Flacco under center, use his big frame and

728
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 3: get this first down.

729
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 6: Three for four on third down, third down, less than one.

730
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:41,000
Speaker 6: Flaco's gonna take it and push it. He's gonna get

731
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 6: the first down and plenty more. He's inside the ten,

732
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 6: down to the seven and a half yard line, and

733
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 6: it is first and goal with seven thirty five left

734
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 6: and the clock running in the first half.

735
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 3: I'm glad we were all in agreement there. Just get

736
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 3: Flacco under center.

737
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 7: Let him think it.

738
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 3: He's actually almost busted one the last couple of games

739
00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 3: where he thinks he's gonna get tackled right away. It

740
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 3: ends up picking up about three yards there, first and

741
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 3: goal for the Browns and a chance, I think really

742
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 3: to kind of put the thought in the head of

743
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 3: the New York Jets.

744
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:10,319
Speaker 6: Do we want to keep competing here tonight? Kareem Hunt

745
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 6: will be the running back. There's just the eighth play

746
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 6: of the drive. Three receivers in a triangle off the

747
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,279
Speaker 6: line to the right. Elijah Moore goes in motion. Hey

748
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 6: extend the ball, Flaco throwing and it is incomplete at

749
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:22,960
Speaker 6: the ten yard line. That play looked like it was

750
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,960
Speaker 6: off timing. It was to Elijah Moore at the nine

751
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 6: yard line. It's a good thing, really he dropped it. Yeah,

752
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:30,880
Speaker 6: I'm gonna drop it down right there. But they were

753
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,280
Speaker 6: trying to get misdirection to the left. They had Elijah

754
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 6: Moore going that way and then sneak him back to

755
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,279
Speaker 6: the right, because I think Kevin Stefanski understands what getting

756
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:39,279
Speaker 6: into the end zone against the Jets would mean for

757
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 6: Elijah Moore.

758
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,719
Speaker 3: The Jets, though CJ. Mosley very good. He saw that

759
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,800
Speaker 3: play and fifty three.

760
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,520
Speaker 6: Is eligible and that's Nick Harris and now Jerome Ford

761
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:50,839
Speaker 6: back into the game at running back.

762
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 3: And he's been running wild.

763
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 6: On second down and gold from the seven yard line,

764
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,879
Speaker 6: Flaco under center, Ford and Harrison and off set eye,

765
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:03,560
Speaker 6: here's Flaco taking it, giving it. Ford weaving his way, spinning, spinning,

766
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,160
Speaker 6: and he'll be lucky to get back to the line

767
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,400
Speaker 6: of scrimmage. He might give back a yard to the

768
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 6: eighth Jermaine Johnson kind of stuff the play, and it

769
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,160
Speaker 6: will be third and goal now from near the eight

770
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:13,799
Speaker 6: yard line.

771
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 3: If Ford tried to cut that back but unfortunately ran

772
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,840
Speaker 3: right into the back of Joel Botonio, that completely stopped

773
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 3: his momentum. And now it is third and goal from

774
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:24,239
Speaker 3: about the nine. And so if you're Joe Flacco right here,

775
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 3: if it's there, you take it. But this situation has

776
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:30,000
Speaker 3: to be either a touchdown or an incompletion. Do not

777
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,359
Speaker 3: put the ball in harms away for the Jets, because

778
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:33,960
Speaker 3: you can go up twenty three to seven allies.

779
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,399
Speaker 6: You more off the line, far side the line, David Bell,

780
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,960
Speaker 6: Tillman and Joker to the right, and Joku comes to

781
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,319
Speaker 6: the left in the backfield, Jerome Ford flat gonna throw

782
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:43,560
Speaker 6: looking left corner.

783
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,799
Speaker 7: That's there. Touchdown. It's Elijah More.

784
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:52,000
Speaker 6: From what former Jet to another former Jet and the

785
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 6: Bronsley twenty six to seven.

786
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 3: All you need to know is the emotion that Joe

787
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:02,839
Speaker 3: Flacco showed after that touchdown, on the emotion that Elijah

788
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 3: Moore showed. The Jets actually had soft Gardner go man

789
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 3: to man with David Njoku. That gave the Browns a

790
00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:13,040
Speaker 3: good matchup with Elijah More. Good route, good throw. He

791
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 3: had four catches on that drive for thirty nine yards

792
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:16,760
Speaker 3: in the touchdown.

793
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 6: Jim, here's Riley Patterson in out of the hold of

794
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,560
Speaker 6: Matt Hawk and he's kicking into the dog pound end

795
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:26,600
Speaker 6: right now. Snap is high, but he pulls it down.

796
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:29,720
Speaker 6: The kick by Patterson is up and the kick is good.

797
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 7: He got it. That was a good job by Hawk

798
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 7: could get that snap down.

799
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,480

813
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,880
Speaker 6: the first set, the running back is Jerome Ford and

814
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:24,959
Speaker 6: they have it at their own twenty eight. Flacco play

815
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,960
Speaker 6: action fake in the pocket, looks throws down.

816
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 7: The men O what a catch.

817
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:32,280
Speaker 6: Elijah more to the forty five to the fifty yard line.

818
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,360
Speaker 7: He pointed, he ain't come to play tonight.

819
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 3: I'm worried about that tackle, the way that CJ. Mosley

820
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 3: drove Elijah Moore's shoulder into the ground. Right there. You're

821
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 3: already without Amari Cooper and he looks to be in

822
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,319
Speaker 3: a lot of pain. The Browns players calling for the

823
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,360
Speaker 3: trainers who rushed his injured player.

824
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 2: By rule, Cleveland has charged their first time out of

825
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:50,680
Speaker 2: the half.

826
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 7: It was a game of twenty one.

827
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,360
Speaker 6: The ball was up high Moore went up this lattery,

828
00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 6: made the catch and then fought for five extra yards

829
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 6: out to the fifty and his net pointed out CJ.

830
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:04,720
Speaker 6: Moseley banged him down on the ground, actually hit his head.

831
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, it could be his head, could be a potential concussion.

832
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,040
Speaker 3: I'm sure that's something that they will look at there

833
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:12,319
Speaker 3: with Elijah Moore, but he wanted to have a.

834
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:12,879
Speaker 4: Good game today.

835
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:15,279
Speaker 3: Five catches, sixty one yards and a touchdown here in

836
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:18,120
Speaker 3: the first half. He is doing that. But you're already down,

837
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,719
Speaker 3: Amari Cooper. This could be a significant loss here for

838
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 3: the Cleveland Browns. Well while they attend to him.

839
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:24,560
Speaker 6: With a minute forty one left to go in the

840
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,359

843
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:37,080

00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,279
Speaker 6: He rolls out of my head, he runs it, then

848
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 6: he throws it in fort caught. It hit the thirty head,

849
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:49,440
Speaker 6: the twenty head, the fifteen hat, the ten had the five.

Speaker 5: Jim Donovan and Nathan Zigura, with a jubilating call.

882
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 6: The Jets come up to the line of scrimmage, half

883
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:47,280
Speaker 6: to forty yard line, second down and nine a half

884
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:51,440

892
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:18,640

00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 2: Sleeveley's first charge.

894
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:23,759
Speaker 6: Timeout, please reset the game flock to twelve seconds.

895
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 3: I think we might have got in right now, but

896
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 3: Sadarius Smith down at the fifty and hopefully the Browns

897
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:32,839
Speaker 3: veteran defensive end is okay. But Jim, you're exactly right.

898
00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:36,520
Speaker 3: Think about what this team's had to overcome. No Nick Chubb,

899
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:40,120
Speaker 3: no Deshaun Watson, you lose Jed Wills, you lose Jack Conklin,

900
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:43,759
Speaker 3: you lose Dewan Jones tonight, Noah Maari Cooper, Elijah Moore

901
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:46,279
Speaker 3: goes out. Heck, last week, you lost your punter and

902
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:49,319
Speaker 3: your kicker in the same game. And yet this team

903
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:51,920
Speaker 3: every single week does what it needs to do to win.

904
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:54,920
Speaker 3: To be eleven and five. Listen to this crowd.

905
00:41:55,440 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 6: Sadarius Smith's walking off under his own power. The Browns sideline,

906
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:05,359
Speaker 6: the Brons defenders waving to him and finding Tom He's

907
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,880
Speaker 6: been a big part of this when they rebuilt that

908
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:12,880
Speaker 6: defensive front. He's kind of smiling and pointing.

909
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 7: Back at them.

910
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 6: And now the Jets were twelve seconds left to go

911
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:20,920
Speaker 6: and the Browns up by seventeen. It's third down and one,

912
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,880
Speaker 6: but it's really first down and happiness here in Cleveland.

913
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 6: Leb Browns are ready to go to the postseason, Simmy

914
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:32,600
Speaker 6: and shotgun takes the stamp back looking tip pass at the.

915
00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 7: Line of scrimmage.

916
00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:36,560
Speaker 6: We're down to eight seconds left to go in complete pass,

917
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:38,200
Speaker 6: and it will be fourth down.

918
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 7: And one for the Jets. What a ride, What a

919
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:42,680
Speaker 7: ride it has.

920
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:44,919
Speaker 3: Baby, almost wish that was complete because he was gonna

921
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 3: get tackled. That would have been game over. But it

922
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:50,439
Speaker 3: is game over Alex right getting that deflection and right

923
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:54,800
Speaker 3: now a celebration about the breakout here at Cleveland brown Stadium,

924
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:58,040
Speaker 3: and Jim, I'm so happy to have you alongside for

930
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:14,880
Speaker 6: Jocage got him three two one.

Speaker 6: Heart for this head coach, and I just think he

945
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 6: has done an amazing job with a tremendous.

946
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:21,440
Speaker 3: Staff, the resilience every single week, go one and oh

947
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:23,640
Speaker 3: that's what they asked this football team to do, no

948
00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:26,920
Speaker 3: matter the obstacle, no matter who's in, who's out. As

949
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:31,000
Speaker 3: David Ajoku is doing airplanes running around to celebrate with

950
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 3: the Browns fans. What an unbelievable job. You're exactly right.

951
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,320
Speaker 3: Ken Sefanski, in my opinion, should win his second Coach

952
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 3: of the Year in four seasons. This team so much heart,

953
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:43,480
Speaker 3: so fun. Eight and one at home in front of

954
00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:46,320
Speaker 3: the best fans in all the professional sports.

955
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,160
Speaker 6: Now according to Dan Tracy, and I never doubt the

956
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:52,480
Speaker 6: apostle Tracy, that's right. They have never won eight games

957
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:55,760
Speaker 6: at home in a regular season before in their history

958
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:59,760
Speaker 6: eight and one and won to run through all kinds

959
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,879
Speaker 6: of injuries, and the Browns just hung with it through

960
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 6: four quarterbacks and a thirty eight year old quarterback soon

961
00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:10,279
Speaker 6: to be thirty nine gets off the couch literally and

962
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:12,400
Speaker 6: comes in and shaves the season.

963
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:16,799
Speaker 3: You heard this, crowd, chanty, Flaco, Flaco. The guys thrown

964
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,480
Speaker 3: for three hundred yards in four st raight games. Jim,

965
00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:22,719
Speaker 3: We've never seen that in Cleveland Brown's history. And the

966
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:26,799
Speaker 3: Browns won all four of those games. Who punched their

967
00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:30,760
Speaker 3: ticket into the postseason. And right now, come this Sunday,

968
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:34,120
Speaker 3: we are all Miami Dolphins fans to keep that dream

969
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,719
Speaker 3: alive because there still as a path not only to

970
00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 3: the playoffs, but to the number one seed for your

971
00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:40,560
Speaker 3: Cleveland Browns.

972
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 6: Final score tonight the Browns thirty seven and the New

973
00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:51,440
Speaker 6: York Jets twenty, and the Browns go to eleven and

974
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:55,040
Speaker 6: five with one to play, but a lot of watching

975
00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:57,879
Speaker 6: to do, as the Browns have won it and they

976
00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:01,080
Speaker 6: have wrapped up a playoff spot, and Browns are taking

977
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 6: a lap around the stadium ball to be with their fans.

978
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:10,360
Speaker 6: What a great moment to choak it here at Browns stadium,

979
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:13,000
Speaker 6: and let me just say that, so I think Kevin Stefanski,

980
00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:16,320
Speaker 6: we'd be the first to say this. These fans have

981
00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:19,719
Speaker 6: really pulled this team through many a tight spot in

982
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:21,439
Speaker 6: the stadium this year.

983
00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:24,279
Speaker 3: There's no doubt there is a clear home field advantage,

984
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:28,120
Speaker 3: and it is due to these fans bringing it every

985
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:31,719
Speaker 3: single week, every single Sunday, in this case, on a

986
00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:36,320
Speaker 3: Thursday night in late December, to see their team clinch

987
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:40,320
Speaker 3: a playoff berth on national television. I couldn't be happier.

988
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,640
Speaker 3: They're no better fans in the world. You all deserve it.

989
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,840
Speaker 3: Everybody enjoyed this moment because this is truly special. Twenty

990
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,400
Speaker 3: twenty was awesome, but it was in the midst of COVID,

991
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,240
Speaker 3: in the midst of a global pandemic. Ten thousand people

992
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:56,680
Speaker 3: were here today. This place was packed. It's a celebration

993
00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:59,120
Speaker 3: and we are just getting started.

994
00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:02,600
Speaker 6: You know something, I think the night is still very

995
00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:04,000
Speaker 6: young in Cleveland.

996
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:05,480
Speaker 7: Darn right about that? All right?

997
00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:07,960
Speaker 6: The final score the Browns thirty seven of the New

998
00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:08,840
Speaker 6: York Jets.

1038
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:54,000
Speaker 9: What is this?

1039
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:56,920
Speaker 2: Uh? What does this meant for you? To have your

1040
00:48:57,000 --> 00:49:00,279
Speaker 2: kids see this at their age because the lot of

1041
00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:02,959
Speaker 2: your other greatness, they either weren't around or they.

1042
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:05,280
Speaker 4: Were really he was having to pull up YouTube highlight.

1043
00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:09,439
Speaker 9: You know, I never really thought about it until until

1044
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:11,640
Speaker 9: the last couple of years when they've grown. You know,

1045
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:13,720
Speaker 9: when you were young, you just you were having kids,

1046
00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:15,400
Speaker 9: to have kids, and that's what you wanted, and you

1047
00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:18,440
Speaker 9: didn't really think about them watching you play football. But

1048
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:21,399
Speaker 9: then the last couple of years, like watching them get

1049
00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:24,680
Speaker 9: to the age where they understood what was going on. Uh,

1050
00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:29,080
Speaker 9: my boys came to a game in uh at MetLife

1051
00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:31,640
Speaker 9: against the Dolphins. Elijah Moore went off.

1052
00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:33,080
Speaker 4: That day, his hundred yard game.

1053
00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:36,320
Speaker 9: Yeah, he had a touchdown, he shook his he shook

1054
00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:38,319
Speaker 9: his butt in the end zone, whatever dance he did.

1055
00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:41,759
Speaker 9: My kids were hooked from that game on and they

1056
00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:45,399
Speaker 9: were huge Elijah Moore fans, and it just it just

1057
00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:48,640
Speaker 9: reminded me of being a kid and like how easily

1058
00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:51,520
Speaker 9: this game can kind of hook you and bring you in.

1059
00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:54,640
Speaker 9: And it was probably right around that point where I

1060
00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:57,960
Speaker 9: started thinking, man, I missed out, Like it would have

1061
00:49:57,960 --> 00:50:01,800
Speaker 9: been unbelievable to play, like really play when these guys

1062
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:03,440
Speaker 9: are at the age they are, so to have this

1063
00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:04,600
Speaker 9: opportunity to be incredible.

1064
00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:06,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've had so many guys we talked to who

1065
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:09,839
Speaker 2: retire And look, we're all on a different timeline now

1066
00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:12,239
Speaker 2: with with you're younger than Zee and I, but a

1067
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,400
Speaker 2: in a vicinity, And one of the things is we're

1068
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:18,799
Speaker 2: all waiting later to get married and have children later

1069
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:20,880
Speaker 2: that that's the more common path and so talk a

1070
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:22,799
Speaker 2: lot of guys who retired from the league, even the

1071
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:25,360
Speaker 2: hoff uh lorn IIIs guys I know really well, and

1072
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:27,279
Speaker 2: they're like, man, my kids never really got to see

1073
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:27,680
Speaker 2: me play.

1074
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:32,040
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, it's it's interesting. I mean I remember Matt

1075
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:34,359
Speaker 9: Stover when early on in my career. You know, he

1076
00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:37,120
Speaker 9: was up there. He's a kicker, obviously, it's like he

1077
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:40,960
Speaker 9: played here. Yeah, he did both. He went Browns to

1078
00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:44,279
Speaker 9: Ravens and he had like teenage kids when when he

1079
00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:47,359
Speaker 9: was walking out of the stadium, and I do remember that,

1080
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:50,839
Speaker 9: but it's not very often you see. Lardarius Web had

1081
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:54,040
Speaker 9: a kid. His son's in college now and he so

1082
00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:56,880
Speaker 9: his son was he was young when he was playing,

1083
00:50:56,960 --> 00:50:58,640
Speaker 9: but like he would, he was around a locker room

1084
00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:02,120
Speaker 9: a lot, and it was cool. An Kwan's son was

1085
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:05,760
Speaker 9: a decent and decent of it, decent of enough age

1086
00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:07,680
Speaker 9: to kind of be around the locker room and stuff

1087
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:09,319
Speaker 9: like that, which was cool. It's always cool to see

1088
00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:11,799
Speaker 9: the kids and just let them all take it in,

1089
00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:13,200

00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:32,719
Speaker 3: oh man, Joe Blaco gets out there on the sideline.

1099
00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:35,120
Speaker 9: I kind of lost track of the fact that I

1100
00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:39,640
Speaker 9: was miked up. It's good, yeah, I know you always

1101
00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:42,040
Speaker 9: lose track. You try to warn guys before the game, like, hey,

1102
00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:44,400
Speaker 9: just that you know, I'm miked up, but everybody forgets

1103
00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:46,160
Speaker 9: and you just start going out there and doing your.

1104
00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:48,600
Speaker 3: Thing, especially in that moment. You mentioned Elijah earlier, so

1105
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:52,480
Speaker 3: I wanted to kind of bring this up. When you

1106
00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:56,920
Speaker 3: threw the touchdown pass to Elijah, your reaction to that

1107
00:51:57,760 --> 00:51:59,600
Speaker 3: was it felt like to me more than just we

1108
00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:01,879
Speaker 3: scored touchdown. I could tell how much you wanted that

1109
00:52:02,360 --> 00:52:04,560
Speaker 3: for Elijah. You knew how much that meant to him.

1110
00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:06,520
Speaker 3: I thought that was a pretty special moment. So you

1111
00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:08,160
Speaker 3: had that great moment, then you have the scariness of

1112
00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:11,720
Speaker 3: what happened after that, and thank goodness, he's doing great. Yeah,

1113
00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:14,080
Speaker 3: but why did that one mean so much too? Because

1114
00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:15,480
Speaker 3: clearly you guys have a bond. Maybe you knew your

1115
00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:17,200
Speaker 3: kids were there and you're like, dad threw it to Elijah,

1116
00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:19,399
Speaker 3: They're gonna love that. I don't know, it was great though.

1117
00:52:19,480 --> 00:52:21,279
Speaker 9: Yeah, I don't know. I don't know even know if

1118
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 9: I have an answer for you. It was just I

1119
00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:24,439
Speaker 9: think it was just natural. I mean, it wasn't really

1120
00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:26,480
Speaker 9: anything that now it's funny that you bring it up.

1121
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:28,480
Speaker 9: It wasn't like, oh, we're playing the Jets. It had

1122
00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:32,160
Speaker 9: anything to do with that. I think when you're playing

1123
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:34,239
Speaker 9: well and the team's rolling, you want everybody to be

1124
00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:37,279
Speaker 9: a part of it. So to have him really step

1125
00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:39,200
Speaker 9: up when he had the opportunity to like be a

1126
00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:42,239
Speaker 9: big part of it, yeah, I think that's cool. It's

1127
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:43,160
Speaker 9: cool to see that happen.

1128
00:52:43,920 --> 00:52:46,440
Speaker 2: When did you One of the things we've said on

1129
00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:48,480
Speaker 2: the program here, and it from from our vantage point,

1130
00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:50,520
Speaker 2: it feels like you and Kevin see the game and

1131
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:54,680
Speaker 2: AVP as well. You see the game very similarly in

1132
00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:56,920
Speaker 2: terms of the calls that are being made, the way

1133
00:52:56,920 --> 00:52:58,799
Speaker 2: that you're processing the calls, the plays that are made

1134
00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:00,720
Speaker 2: on the field. When you went through through the process

1135
00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:04,239
Speaker 2: of all right, I'm gonna play again, Brown's fit all

1136
00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:07,800
Speaker 2: of that stuff. How what were those conversations like and

1137
00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:09,719
Speaker 2: and how accurate is that in terms of the way

1138
00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:11,160
Speaker 2: both you and Kevin see the game.

1139
00:53:11,560 --> 00:53:14,520
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's interesting. I mean I don't think about that

1140
00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:16,560
Speaker 9: stuff too much. I'm just trying to like run the game,

1141
00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:18,440
Speaker 9: you know, do the game plan and the best I can.

1142
00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:22,439
Speaker 9: And obviously there were some conversations early on like hey,

1143
00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:24,279
Speaker 9: kind of go through the offense, see what you like,

1144
00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:26,200
Speaker 9: you know, but it's not like you're It's not like

1145
00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:28,319
Speaker 9: I'm making stuff up and drawing pictures and giving them

1146
00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:29,480
Speaker 9: to him, like, hey, this is what I've done in

1147
00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:32,440
Speaker 9: the past, Like I'm picking stuff that we do. I

1148
00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:34,839
Speaker 9: was excited about just the opportunity to get to work

1149
00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:36,600
Speaker 9: with him. I mean, you see him from Afar and

1150
00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:41,080
Speaker 9: he was with Gary in Minnesota for a couple of years,

1151
00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:44,319
Speaker 9: so you know, he was with Norv Turner, who I think,

1152
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:46,200
Speaker 9: you know, not that I was with Norv, but I've

1153
00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:49,640
Speaker 9: I've done things similar to the way Norv did them,

1154
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:53,359
Speaker 9: So you know, it's like it's not something that I've

1155
00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:58,240
Speaker 9: actively thought about, but I you know, I trust those guys.

1156
00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:00,960
Speaker 9: I was excited about the opportunity to trust those guys

1157
00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:03,040
Speaker 9: to put stuff together that was going to be successful.

1158
00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:06,080
Speaker 9: And the other side of that is just the stuff

1159
00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:08,200
Speaker 9: that we're able to do, is just the stuff that

1160
00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:11,000
Speaker 9: we're capable of doing. Is kind of unique because we

1161
00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:13,360
Speaker 9: do have a good front, like our offensive lines protecting

1162
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:15,520
Speaker 9: their butts off, and then just what we do with

1163
00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:17,400
Speaker 9: our backs to help out and our tight ends to

1164
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:20,360
Speaker 9: help out all those different things. You know, that's a

1165
00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:22,000
Speaker 9: credit to Kevin, but it's also a credit to our

1166
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:23,560
Speaker 9: players and things like that, and all of our other

1167
00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:25,520
Speaker 9: coaches putting things together where we can throw the ball

1168
00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:26,399
Speaker 9: down the field a little bit.

1169
00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:28,239
Speaker 3: I got a couple of questions for a first one,

1170
00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:30,920
Speaker 3: did you or are you aware of the picture that

1171
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,520
Speaker 3: was snapped of you on the airplane when you were

1172
00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:34,280
Speaker 3: coming to Cleveland?

1173
00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:37,560
Speaker 9: Yeah, I am somebody. Everybody said, I said, good, I

1174
00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:39,359
Speaker 9: flew home this Friday, this past Friday after the game.

1175
00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:41,240
Speaker 9: Good thing they didn't take a picture of that that

1176
00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:44,080
Speaker 9: that whole I think it was like probably four feet

1177
00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:46,239
Speaker 9: high that plane. Man, it was crazy. I was like

1178
00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:48,439
Speaker 9: on my knees going back to my seat on that one.

1179
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:49,920
Speaker 9: But but yeah, I've seen that.

1180
00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:51,080
Speaker 4: Okay, so it's great.

1181
00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:52,960
Speaker 3: Now it's being regarded as like the most important pature

1182
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,239
Speaker 3: in Cleveland Brown's history, like because it was. You have

1183
00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:58,560
Speaker 3: to understand in Cleveland anytime that there's somebody who has

1184
00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:01,239
Speaker 3: a big name there report that they're looking at real

1185
00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:03,879
Speaker 3: estate on the west side or this, but like that

1186
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:05,759
Speaker 3: was actually real. This is one of those where it

1187
00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:08,359
Speaker 3: actually came to be true. You actually did come here

1188
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:10,360
Speaker 3: and now this magical story is happening.

1189
00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:12,360
Speaker 4: So that was that, and then this one more football.

1190
00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:15,040
Speaker 3: My favorite play in the whole game against the Jets

1191
00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:17,960
Speaker 3: was actually the past to Jordan Aikens because of just

1192
00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:21,440
Speaker 3: the beauty of the play, the ball handling, the all

1193
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:23,720
Speaker 3: of it, and just the scheme everything on that play.

1194
00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:26,720
Speaker 3: Is it fun being in an offense because you're clearly

1195
00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:28,480
Speaker 3: you know, you're a nice ball handler. You can hand

1196
00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:31,000
Speaker 3: that was that was a pretty fake right there? Is

1197
00:55:31,040 --> 00:55:32,360
Speaker 3: that fun when you know you get to do a

1198
00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:34,160
Speaker 3: lot of this fun kind of ball handling back to

1199
00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:35,840
Speaker 3: the defense and then turn around and oh look, my

1200
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:36,560
Speaker 3: guy's wide open.

1201
00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:38,680
Speaker 9: You know what was so fun about that play is

1202
00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,319
Speaker 9: I mean, I have was miked up and if you

1203
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:43,040
Speaker 9: if you were able to listen to the whole thing.

1204
00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:45,200
Speaker 9: You can hear I come to the sideline. I botched

1205
00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:49,080
Speaker 9: that fake. Uh, I mean I, oh my gosh, you

1206
00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:51,640
Speaker 9: don't come out with one hand on the ball, and

1207
00:55:51,719 --> 00:55:54,480
Speaker 9: that like the way we counter to right, It's just

1208
00:55:54,600 --> 00:55:56,760
Speaker 9: not the way we've done it. And I've never really

1209
00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:59,680
Speaker 9: done the open open hand ball fake since I've been

1210
00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:01,520
Speaker 9: in the end. I fell in college, I did it, okay,

1211
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:03,880
Speaker 9: but I haven't done it since we've been here. And

1212
00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:05,640
Speaker 9: you know, we've we've worked on it a little bit

1213
00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:07,560
Speaker 9: out of practice, but it's not something that like I've

1214
00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:09,799
Speaker 9: completely focused on. It's just like, okay, it's a fake,

1215
00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:13,840
Speaker 9: I'll do it, you know. And I came out, I

1216
00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:17,080
Speaker 9: came out from under center, and I was like, I

1217
00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:19,600
Speaker 9: put my one hand out and I was like, literally

1218
00:56:19,640 --> 00:56:22,160
Speaker 9: in the middle of the playoffs, like what are you doing?

1219
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:24,080
Speaker 9: That's not how you're supposed to do this. And I

1220
00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:26,319
Speaker 9: just kind of like switched hands real quick and faked it.

1221
00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:28,480
Speaker 9: And then next thing you know, he's wide open. And

1222
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:32,160
Speaker 9: then like I go home this weekend, this past weekend,

1223
00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:36,279
Speaker 9: and I'm sitting in the barber shop and a kid

1224
00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:38,239
Speaker 9: sitting next to me, and he says, oh, man, I

1225
00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:40,040
Speaker 9: just saw. I just saw a video of that play

1226
00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:41,600
Speaker 9: action that you did, and I didn't even know what

1227
00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:43,719
Speaker 9: he was talking about, because I'm like, what good play

1228
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:47,120
Speaker 9: action did I do? And then and then it dawned

1229
00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:48,919
Speaker 9: on me, like, oh my god, I hit it wide open.

1230
00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:51,600
Speaker 9: I hit Jordan wide open after on a keeper after

1231
00:56:51,640 --> 00:56:53,400
Speaker 9: the play action. He's got to be talking about that,

1232
00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:55,880
Speaker 9: And it's just so funny because I messed it up

1233
00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:57,920
Speaker 9: and we were laughing on the sideline, like I was like, guys,

1234
00:56:57,920 --> 00:56:58,520
Speaker 9: did you see that?

1235
00:56:58,640 --> 00:56:59,960
Speaker 4: This is the best I thought it was.

1236
00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:05,359
Speaker 9: You know, it works out, but man, I was just like, oh,

1237
00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:06,720
Speaker 9: you idiot. That was so bad.

1238
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:11,120
Speaker 3: It was obviously effective, because if you watch the tape,

1239
00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:12,240
Speaker 3: everybody on the Jets.

1240
00:57:12,040 --> 00:57:15,480
Speaker 9: Not yeah, I played it off. I played it off most.

1241
00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:16,880
Speaker 4: Certainly did happy accidents.

1242
00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:20,120
Speaker 2: Right, It all works, and this has all worked with

1243
00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:23,040
Speaker 2: you since you've been here, and and now we have

1244
00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:25,600
Speaker 2: this week where we're playing a game down in Cincinnati,

1245
00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:26,800
Speaker 2: but at the same time, a lot of you guys

1246
00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:28,760
Speaker 2: are resting and we're we have our eye on a

1247
00:57:28,800 --> 00:57:30,480
Speaker 2: much bigger prize out there. You're one of the few

1248
00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:33,080
Speaker 2: guys on this roster who knows what it likes, what

1249
00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:35,360
Speaker 2: it takes to make a deep run in the postseason.

1250
00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:38,680
Speaker 2: How much have conversation have you had with some of

1251
00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:41,640
Speaker 2: the younger guys who are just man, they're starving for

1252
00:57:41,720 --> 00:57:44,760
Speaker 2: this run. You can sense it certainly not a ton yet.

1253
00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:46,640
Speaker 9: I mean there is still this game, so I think

1254
00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:48,360
Speaker 9: you don't want to jump you don't want to jump

1255
00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:50,840
Speaker 9: ahead too far. Everybody's minds are probably on it a

1256
00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:52,640
Speaker 9: little bit, but there's you still got to respect the

1257
00:57:52,640 --> 00:57:54,439
Speaker 9: guys that are going out there in battle this week.

1258
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:57,800
Speaker 9: I mean, all these games are so important. But yeah,

1259
00:57:57,880 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 9: I mean you can see it in guy's eyes and

1260
00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:03,680
Speaker 9: things like that at how excited everybody is. It's it's

1261
00:58:03,800 --> 00:58:06,160
Speaker 9: an unbelievable time of the year to play football. And

1262
00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:09,960
Speaker 9: there's definitely something that's really special about these games. I

1263
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:12,840
Speaker 9: think everybody makes it's like, oh, playoff football. It's this atmosphere.

1264
00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:14,840
Speaker 9: It's going to be it's gonna be revved up, and

1265
00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:16,120
Speaker 9: you just got to do your best to just go

1266
00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:17,760
Speaker 9: out there and play the way you always do. And

1267
00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:20,440
Speaker 9: it's it's it's still just play by play, do the

1268
00:58:20,520 --> 00:58:23,680
Speaker 9: basic things. There are things about the atmosphere, like when

1269
00:58:23,680 --> 00:58:25,440
Speaker 9: you first got out there, like the first couple of

1270
00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:27,520
Speaker 9: minutes of the game, the opening kickoff, the first couple

1271
00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:29,840
Speaker 9: drives where you can tell people are very are a

1272
00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:31,800
Speaker 9: little bit more emotional about it, you know, they get

1273
00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:35,320
Speaker 9: themselves revved up. But usually the game settles in and

1274
00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:38,320
Speaker 9: it's about and it's about doing the fundamental things the

1275
00:58:38,360 --> 00:58:40,760
Speaker 9: best you can do it. You know. So all those

1276
00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:44,400
Speaker 9: things that you talk about all year, they just become

1277
00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:47,440
Speaker 9: more evident in the playoff games. But it's it's not

1278
00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:50,520
Speaker 9: it's not the crazy stuff. It's this simple plays. It's

1279
00:58:50,560 --> 00:58:52,440
Speaker 9: it's just going back to the basics. Those are the

1280
00:58:52,440 --> 00:58:55,080
Speaker 9: things that become very evident. Uh, you know, I think

1281
00:58:55,080 --> 00:58:55,880
Speaker 9: at this time of the year.

1282
00:58:56,360 --> 00:58:58,880
Speaker 3: So I went through all your career game logs too,

1283
00:58:58,880 --> 00:59:00,920
Speaker 3: because I wanted to look and see if you had,

1284
00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:03,560
Speaker 3: prior to this becoming public knowledge, if you had ever

1285
00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:06,360
Speaker 3: sat going into the playoffs, and I know you had

1286
00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:07,960
Speaker 3: not one game you kind of came out after I

1287
00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:10,080
Speaker 3: think maybe two drives, which would be the closest thing

1288
00:59:10,120 --> 00:59:13,120
Speaker 3: to it going in. What's kind of your mindset that

1289
00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:14,920
Speaker 3: And somebody said it best the other day. They're like,

1290
00:59:15,120 --> 00:59:17,200
Speaker 3: he's come off the couch in the middle of season

1291
00:59:17,240 --> 00:59:18,880
Speaker 3: and lighting it up, Like we're not worried if we

1292
00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:19,920
Speaker 3: get a rest with.

1293
00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:21,640
Speaker 9: The year we want it. In Baltimore, we did this.

1294
00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:26,040
Speaker 9: I mean I played it was one series, maybe two.

1295
00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:28,560
Speaker 9: I think it was probably one, but the mindset was

1296
00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:30,840
Speaker 9: very similar. I hadn't missed a game at that point,

1297
00:59:30,840 --> 00:59:33,000
Speaker 9: so I wanted this, you know, God, I wanted to start.

1298
00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:34,840
Speaker 9: And that was probably the same for a couple guys

1299
00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:37,200
Speaker 9: like we just I, like I said, I think we

1300
00:59:37,240 --> 00:59:38,880
Speaker 9: went out there and played a series maybe too. It

1301
00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:42,040
Speaker 9: was in Cincinnati, but at the mindset was pretty soil.

1302
00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:42,919
Speaker 4: And it was a year you did what again?

1303
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:43,880
Speaker 9: Yea?

1304
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:45,200
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1305
00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:47,280
Speaker 3: The other thing I came across going through because I

1306
00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:49,040
Speaker 3: have every single game like you've ever played, by the way,

1307
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:50,320
Speaker 3: it's a very long list when you've been in the

1308
00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:55,000
Speaker 3: league since two thousand and eight, like Week seven or

1309
00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:57,560
Speaker 3: Week eight, I'm sorry, two thousand and eight. You beat

1310
00:59:57,600 --> 01:00:01,280
Speaker 3: the Raiders twenty nine to ten. You have a catch

1311
01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:02,520
Speaker 3: for forty three yards?

1312
01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:06,440
Speaker 9: I do I Troy Smith? Troy Smith, I think I

1313
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:09,600
Speaker 9: threw one in right. Yeah, I think I threw one

1314
01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:11,760
Speaker 9: and ran one in that game. And if I got

1315
01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:14,560
Speaker 9: you are caught it. I caught one over and my

1316
01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:16,680
Speaker 9: left my right. I guess I was running. I left

1317
01:00:16,680 --> 01:00:18,640
Speaker 9: down the left sideline on like a little rail route,

1318
01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:21,640
Speaker 9: and I uh, I caught it like kind of down

1319
01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:23,240
Speaker 9: by my waist and my knees, and I did one

1320
01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:25,600
Speaker 9: of those. I just couldn't. I wasn't upright in now,

1321
01:00:25,680 --> 01:00:28,200
Speaker 9: So I stumbled for like probably ten yards and I

1322
01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:30,000
Speaker 9: think I was probably I probably got down on the

1323
01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:32,160
Speaker 9: ten yard line. But I came out of the backfield

1324
01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:35,160
Speaker 9: and I saw their I'm sorry whoever this was, but

1325
01:00:35,200 --> 01:00:36,880
Speaker 9: I saw their white linebacker and I was like, you

1326
01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:38,439
Speaker 9: know what, I think I can run by this guy.

1327
01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:41,600
Speaker 9: And I snuck by him just enough and Troy laid

1328
01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:42,960
Speaker 9: it right over my shoulder. But yeah, I did have

1329
01:00:43,040 --> 01:00:43,600
Speaker 9: a catch that game.

1330
01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:44,400
Speaker 4: So hope you ever.

1331
01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:46,280
Speaker 3: I mean to me, it feels like if you have

1332
01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:48,400
Speaker 3: one catch for forty three yards on your resume, maybe

1333
01:00:48,440 --> 01:00:51,280
Speaker 3: we would try this again. I mean, I don't know,

1334
01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:53,640
Speaker 3: Tom Brady went out and caught a touchdown in the

1335
01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:54,120
Speaker 3: Super Bowl.

1336
01:00:54,280 --> 01:00:56,960
Speaker 9: Yeah, then once we get there, Yeah, I don't know

1337
01:00:56,960 --> 01:00:58,440
Speaker 9: about that, we'll leave it. We'll leave the.

1338
01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:02,280
Speaker 3: On the rollout to Jerome Ford. I'm just gonna say,

1339
01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:05,000
Speaker 3: once you touch it, yeah like a cheetah.

1340
01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:08,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is this is this has been awesome man.

1341
01:01:08,640 --> 01:01:11,600
Speaker 2: And one thing, I did a kind of informal poll

1342
01:01:11,640 --> 01:01:14,120
Speaker 2: among I have three little boys, ten to twelve, ten

1343
01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:16,720
Speaker 2: and eight, and I did like an informal poll and like,

1344
01:01:16,760 --> 01:01:18,240
Speaker 2: what are you asking for for? I mean, I got

1345
01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:20,920
Speaker 2: Flacco Jerseys like eighty percent of the ass. And I'm

1346
01:01:20,920 --> 01:01:23,400
Speaker 2: gonna tell you what, Like we do this show every

1347
01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:26,080
Speaker 2: day year round. You geta ask me three months ago

1348
01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:29,240
Speaker 2: if the most requested Christmas script was fifteen Flaco Jersey

1349
01:01:29,280 --> 01:01:31,800
Speaker 2: would have said, you're out of your mind and you

1350
01:01:31,880 --> 01:01:34,960
Speaker 2: gotta have you gotta have that. It's gotta be just surreal.

1351
01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:36,960
Speaker 9: It is, Yeah, it really is. I mean, if you

1352
01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:39,040
Speaker 9: if you have like a moment to sit back and like,

1353
01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:41,520
Speaker 9: you know, like Thursday night when a bunch of my

1354
01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:43,720
Speaker 9: family is in town, there's a little bit of a

1355
01:01:43,840 --> 01:01:45,280
Speaker 9: there's a little bit of time where you like kind

1356
01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:47,400
Speaker 9: of sit back and say what is going on? You know,

1357
01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:50,960
Speaker 9: you've seen a lot of things when you're in the

1358
01:01:51,120 --> 01:01:53,320
Speaker 9: league for a long time, but there's always things that

1359
01:01:53,360 --> 01:01:55,680
Speaker 9: come up in surprise you, and you know, it's it's

1360
01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:56,360
Speaker 9: pretty special.

1361
01:01:56,840 --> 01:01:57,880
Speaker 4: Did you get a chance?

1362
01:01:57,920 --> 01:01:59,360
Speaker 3: And I know you were locked in, but maybe once

1363
01:01:59,400 --> 01:02:02,000
Speaker 3: the game was clearly over, we kind of look around.

1364
01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:04,560
Speaker 3: There are a lot of signs about you in the stands.

1365
01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:06,840
Speaker 3: Did you see the one that said we forgive you Joe?

1366
01:02:07,720 --> 01:02:11,600
Speaker 9: I didn't, you know, I I don't usually settle down

1367
01:02:11,640 --> 01:02:14,120
Speaker 9: till the clock is zero, But after we kicked the

1368
01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:16,280
Speaker 9: field goal to go up by seventeen, I did. It

1369
01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:17,760
Speaker 9: was probably three minutes, like.

1370
01:02:17,760 --> 01:02:18,520
Speaker 2: Wait, we got three minutes?

1371
01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:21,320
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, I actually did relax at that point. I was.

1372
01:02:21,360 --> 01:02:23,600
Speaker 9: I was all smiles. Man, you couldn't have that smile

1373
01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:25,840
Speaker 9: off my face. I did look back around a little bit.

1374
01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:29,840
Speaker 9: This stadium on Thursday night was you know, it was

1375
01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:31,560
Speaker 9: pretty It was pretty cool. It was one of the

1376
01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:33,600
Speaker 9: best atmospheres I've played in. And I mean, you guys

1377
01:02:33,640 --> 01:02:34,960
Speaker 9: have been here for a long time, so you guys

1378
01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:35,880
Speaker 9: could say better than I.

1379
01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:38,120
Speaker 4: But just the way that it all was the best atmosphere.

1380
01:02:38,560 --> 01:02:40,080
Speaker 9: That was just a way that it all kind of

1381
01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:42,920
Speaker 9: came together like a night game to clinch and we

1382
01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:46,200
Speaker 9: were able to do it, and then, you know, it

1383
01:02:46,640 --> 01:02:48,360
Speaker 9: was it was pretty cool. And it was because it

1384
01:02:48,400 --> 01:02:50,320
Speaker 9: started from the time we came out of the tunnel

1385
01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:53,280
Speaker 9: and it just never let down, which is like I said,

1386
01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:54,520
Speaker 9: it was kind of a perfect storm. The way it

1387
01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:56,440
Speaker 9: all happened, but it was a really cool atmosphere.

1388
01:02:57,200 --> 01:02:59,080
Speaker 2: I cannot tell you how much we appreciate your time,

1389

1527
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:36,280
Speaker 3: night and the city so deserving of that kind of excitement,

1528
01:09:36,400 --> 01:09:39,160
Speaker 3: and as it is on this season, there was even

1529
01:09:39,200 --> 01:09:42,280
Speaker 3: when it felt easy, it wasn't you made it a

1530
01:09:42,280 --> 01:09:44,599
Speaker 3: little hard on yourself. There got to be some tension again,

1531
01:09:45,120 --> 01:09:46,680
Speaker 3: and then when you got the fourth down stop and

1532
01:09:46,720 --> 01:09:49,080
Speaker 3: then it just became like you could I mean I

1533
01:09:49,080 --> 01:09:51,320
Speaker 3: got goosebumps talking about it, and you could feel the

1534
01:09:51,360 --> 01:09:54,519
Speaker 3: buzz just rising up in that crowd.

1535
01:09:55,320 --> 01:09:59,679
Speaker 2: It was everything. It was really three years of the making.

1536
01:09:59,680 --> 01:10:02,160
Speaker 2: I mean, it was everything the COVID season was should

1537
01:10:02,200 --> 01:10:04,519
Speaker 2: have been right, and you were there for that. You

1538
01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:05,760
Speaker 2: were one of the few who were there for that,

1539
01:10:05,880 --> 01:10:09,040
Speaker 2: and it was such a those were that's a surreal season.

1540
01:10:09,320 --> 01:10:10,880
Speaker 2: But like we didn't get to have a show like

1541
01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:14,600
Speaker 2: this on that because we were remote, remote and no

1542
01:10:14,640 --> 01:10:16,160
Speaker 2: one was. We weren't able to be in the same

1543
01:10:16,200 --> 01:10:18,840
Speaker 2: room or to celebrate that. And and that's kind of

1544
01:10:18,880 --> 01:10:21,360
Speaker 2: what it felt like on a macro level at the

1545
01:10:21,360 --> 01:10:23,479
Speaker 2: stadium last night. I mean, it was this is a

1546
01:10:23,720 --> 01:10:26,519
Speaker 2: this is a game that was settled into the four,

1547
01:10:26,600 --> 01:10:29,080
Speaker 2: you know as well into the fourth fourth quarter you

1548
01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:31,599
Speaker 2: felt pretty good about everything, and you're looking around and

1549
01:10:31,640 --> 01:10:33,439
Speaker 2: like I kept waiting, and I was, I let the

1550
01:10:33,439 --> 01:10:36,120
Speaker 2: boys stay up. They're still on break and they're watching

1551
01:10:36,200 --> 01:10:38,200
Speaker 2: and they're like, and beams, he said, Dad, there's no

1552
01:10:38,280 --> 01:10:41,719
Speaker 2: empty seats. And I said no, and there won't be

1553
01:10:41,720 --> 01:10:43,880
Speaker 2: because they've been waiting for this. You all have been

1554
01:10:43,880 --> 01:10:46,639
Speaker 2: waiting for this for a very very long time, and

1555
01:10:46,640 --> 01:10:51,559
Speaker 2: and to have it and here at home, dramatically, we

1556
01:10:51,640 --> 01:10:55,000
Speaker 2: have not had this type of moment. Nobody out there

1557
01:10:55,200 --> 01:10:58,559
Speaker 2: listening right now, unless you're somebody who's above the age

1558
01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:01,839
Speaker 2: of forty five ish for ish that remembers the eighties,

1559
01:11:02,120 --> 01:11:03,640
Speaker 2: you don't have a point of reference on this. You

1560
01:11:03,640 --> 01:11:05,720
Speaker 2: don't know what this is like to clinch with a

1561
01:11:05,760 --> 01:11:08,920
Speaker 2: game to spare, and to do it at home in

1562
01:11:08,960 --> 01:11:11,439
Speaker 2: a night game. Come on, dude, like this is this

1563
01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:12,479
Speaker 2: checks every box.

1564
01:11:13,160 --> 01:11:15,160
Speaker 3: The Browns went eight and one at home, and thanks

1565
01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:18,439
Speaker 3: to our great statistician on the broadcast, Dan Tracy, he

1566
01:11:18,479 --> 01:11:20,559
Speaker 3: informs the Bruns have never won eight games at home

1567
01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:22,960
Speaker 3: in a season, and obviously you'd have to have gone

1568
01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:24,640
Speaker 3: eight to oh and then the seasons were shorter, the

1569
01:11:24,640 --> 01:11:26,840
Speaker 3: most they'd ever won was seven, and so you get

1570
01:11:26,840 --> 01:11:29,880
Speaker 3: that kind of history. Joe Flacco throws his way into

1571
01:11:29,880 --> 01:11:32,439
Speaker 3: the record books, snaps a thirty three game streak of

1572
01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:34,760
Speaker 3: the Jets not allowing a three hundred yard passer. He

1573
01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:37,120
Speaker 3: becomes the first Brown ever to throw for three hundred

1574
01:11:37,200 --> 01:11:38,920
Speaker 3: yards and four straight games. The Runs have won all

1575
01:11:38,960 --> 01:11:40,800
Speaker 3: four of those games. He's the first quarterback in the

1576
01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:43,519
Speaker 3: history of the National Football League to throw for two

1577
01:11:43,560 --> 01:11:45,360
Speaker 3: hundred and fifty yards or more and two or more

1578
01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:47,360
Speaker 3: touchdowns in his first five starts with the team. Not

1579
01:11:47,400 --> 01:11:50,200
Speaker 3: even Peyton Manning when he came to Denver and threw

1580
01:11:50,280 --> 01:11:52,639
Speaker 3: for eight billion yards and one hundred touchdowns that season

1581
01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:55,479
Speaker 3: did that. Only Joe Flacco. And to do it against

1582
01:11:55,479 --> 01:11:57,640
Speaker 3: the Jets in two ninety six at the half two

1583
01:11:57,760 --> 01:11:59,880
Speaker 3: night six to the over under was two forty.

1584
01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:02,479
Speaker 2: The hatch was a fair over under. I think the

1585
01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:04,240
Speaker 2: actual was two thirty six.

1586
01:12:04,400 --> 01:12:07,160
Speaker 3: There was one player who had gone over that in

1587
01:12:08,320 --> 01:12:11,400
Speaker 3: nine games against them. Yeah, Dan, a lot of three

1588
01:12:11,400 --> 01:12:13,720
Speaker 3: air pass from three three straight games, longest streak in

1589
01:12:13,760 --> 01:12:16,360
Speaker 3: the NFL, No problem, Chiefs over one hundreds in.

1590
01:12:16,360 --> 01:12:16,800
Speaker 4: The first core.

1591
01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:19,439
Speaker 3: And to do it first the first drive, it's like, oh, no,

1592
01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:21,800
Speaker 3: third and fifteen, no problem. Picking up Chiefs second drive,

1593
01:12:21,840 --> 01:12:23,439
Speaker 3: third and twelve, no problem. Chief's gonna one hand it,

1594
01:12:23,439 --> 01:12:26,800
Speaker 3: take it down there, touchdown, touchdown. It's just like it

1595
01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:29,439
Speaker 3: was awesome. And I'll tell you something. It wasn't a

1596
01:12:29,520 --> 01:12:31,439
Speaker 3: dull game. Now, maybe you could say the third quarter

1597
01:12:31,560 --> 01:12:33,879
Speaker 3: was not exactly the most enticing of football.

1598
01:12:33,880 --> 01:12:35,640
Speaker 4: But you got a block kick. You don't get to

1599
01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:36,519
Speaker 4: see that all the time.

1600
01:12:37,400 --> 01:12:40,599
Speaker 2: No, no you don't. Yeah, you got that. The Flacco

1601
01:12:40,760 --> 01:12:44,519
Speaker 2: piece of this, it's hard to if you you know

1602
01:12:44,960 --> 01:12:47,080
Speaker 2: what we do for a living, right is where fans

1603
01:12:47,080 --> 01:12:49,679
Speaker 2: of interesting. We're fans of things that make you think.

1604
01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:55,040
Speaker 2: You want storylines, you like narratives, you like anything. This thing,

1605
01:12:55,400 --> 01:12:57,599
Speaker 2: this comes out of the clear blue sky. I mean,

1606
01:12:58,040 --> 01:13:00,519
Speaker 2: if you go back to Greenbrin, you go back to

1607
01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:05,160
Speaker 2: late August, even September, even before Deshaun's shoulders started happening,

1608
01:13:05,200 --> 01:13:07,559
Speaker 2: and you started to say, well, like, okay, if this happens,

1609
01:13:07,560 --> 01:13:09,920
Speaker 2: what does it look like? And PJ Camp comes in

1610
01:13:09,960 --> 01:13:11,760
Speaker 2: and when's it? When's it? A couple of games is huge?

1611
01:13:11,840 --> 01:13:13,920
Speaker 2: Dtr when's he beat the forty nine ers?

1612
01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:14,240
Speaker 3: Huge?

1613
01:13:14,320 --> 01:13:14,479
Speaker 9: Right?

1614
01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:16,760
Speaker 4: Like game winning drive?

1615
01:13:16,840 --> 01:13:19,320
Speaker 2: That's right? So like you have these moments. But the

1616
01:13:19,360 --> 01:13:21,479
Speaker 2: second he came in here, and it's funny, I told

1617
01:13:21,520 --> 01:13:24,360
Speaker 2: this story last night to Amy and the boys. You

1618
01:13:24,479 --> 01:13:27,280
Speaker 2: came in here, we were off air. You came in

1619
01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:29,280
Speaker 2: here and it was after watching him practice once. It

1620
01:13:29,320 --> 01:13:31,920
Speaker 2: was right before we started the show when he when

1621
01:13:31,960 --> 01:13:34,640
Speaker 2: we first signed him, and you came in here and

1622
01:13:34,680 --> 01:13:37,200
Speaker 2: you go, Flacco look good, and I'm like, come on,

1623
01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:39,840
Speaker 2: what are we talking about. He's been hasn't played in months,

1624
01:13:39,840 --> 01:13:43,160
Speaker 2: So yeah, what do you and everyone? You have a

1625
01:13:43,280 --> 01:13:46,640
Speaker 2: zest and you have a positivity, and you have your

1626
01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:50,639
Speaker 2: class is always full. And I'm a little bit more cynical,

1627
01:13:50,680 --> 01:13:52,120
Speaker 2: and I said, I'm okay, okay, all right, like what

1628
01:13:52,160 --> 01:13:55,160
Speaker 2: does that even mean? He looked good and You're like, no,

1629
01:13:55,760 --> 01:13:59,800
Speaker 2: he looked good. And then the second he started, the

1630
01:13:59,800 --> 01:14:07,040
Speaker 2: first and the first drive, Okay, okay, that's a pro.

1631
01:14:07,640 --> 01:14:09,400
Speaker 2: And I said that that Monday, after that first game,

1632
01:14:09,439 --> 01:14:10,040
Speaker 2: I said, he's a pro.

1633
01:14:10,160 --> 01:14:10,519
Speaker 3: Is what he is.

1634
01:14:10,560 --> 01:14:11,000
Speaker 4: He's a pro.

1635
01:14:11,200 --> 01:14:13,760
Speaker 2: He's more than that. He is playing quarterback as well

1636
01:14:13,760 --> 01:14:15,920
Speaker 2: as anybody in the league right now. From a big

1637
01:14:15,960 --> 01:14:18,760
Speaker 2: play perspective, there's nobody even close what he is doing

1638
01:14:18,840 --> 01:14:21,640
Speaker 2: down the field in this offense. The symphony that is

1639
01:14:21,680 --> 01:14:26,519
Speaker 2: being conducted by Kevin Stefanski with Joe Flacco as the maestro,

1640
01:14:26,760 --> 01:14:30,800
Speaker 2: is a stunning level of competency. And it's not even that,

1641
01:14:30,920 --> 01:14:37,360
Speaker 2: it's it's beyond that. It is they're so swashbuckling, so cutthroat,

1642
01:14:37,439 --> 01:14:39,679
Speaker 2: so go for the kill. I mean, there's some instances

1643
01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:41,519
Speaker 2: I'm looking at this, I'm like, let's get to half

1644
01:14:41,960 --> 01:14:44,640
Speaker 2: and take our nice lead. You get the turnover, but

1645
01:14:44,680 --> 01:14:47,560
Speaker 2: then you go boom right back down score. Okay, I

1646
01:14:47,600 --> 01:14:49,360
Speaker 2: guess if this is what we're gonna be, like, let's

1647
01:14:49,360 --> 01:14:51,720
Speaker 2: be the best offensive team in football, it's nuts, and

1648
01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:54,720
Speaker 2: forget about what we don't have, think about what we

1649
01:14:54,720 --> 01:14:56,439
Speaker 2: do have. Like this guy came off the off his

1650
01:14:56,600 --> 01:14:59,080
Speaker 2: couch and he's playing as good a quarterback as anybody

1651
01:14:59,080 --> 01:15:01,960
Speaker 2: in the league right now. And it is fun to

1652
01:15:02,040 --> 01:15:06,879
Speaker 2: watch how big we're so big offensively, so many bust plays,

1653
01:15:06,920 --> 01:15:09,400
Speaker 2: just wide open chunks chief everybody.

1654
01:15:09,439 --> 01:15:09,960
Speaker 4: It's nuts.

1655
01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:12,120
Speaker 2: Jerome forward to the barn twice.

1656
01:15:12,280 --> 01:15:15,599
Speaker 3: Crazy, unbelievable. And so to your point you're talking about

1657
01:15:15,600 --> 01:15:18,679
Speaker 3: the big plays. Coming into the game. Last night, Flacco

1658
01:15:18,760 --> 01:15:21,160
Speaker 3: had five passing touchdowns of more than thirty yards. That

1659
01:15:21,200 --> 01:15:23,559
Speaker 3: was fifth in the NFL for the season. He had

1660
01:15:23,600 --> 01:15:25,240
Speaker 3: done that in four games, and he added another one

1661
01:15:25,320 --> 01:15:27,400
Speaker 3: last night, so obviously still moving up the rankings there

1662
01:15:27,400 --> 01:15:28,840
Speaker 3: as he hit your own Foard on that fifty one

1663
01:15:28,920 --> 01:15:33,280
Speaker 3: yard catch and run. So it is it's such a

1664
01:15:33,400 --> 01:15:36,880
Speaker 3: cool story and I think he is enjoying it.

1665
01:15:37,240 --> 01:15:40,280
Speaker 4: So thoroughly, which is specialist. Family was in attendance last night.

1666
01:15:40,320 --> 01:15:40,840
Speaker 2: They had jersey.

1667
01:15:41,400 --> 01:15:44,759
Speaker 3: It was great, awesome, and he was just on McAfee

1668
01:15:44,840 --> 01:15:47,800
Speaker 3: show before we went on air, and he said he

1669
01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:49,960
Speaker 3: remember he came home after a game with the Jets

1670
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:52,000
Speaker 3: and his kids were like thirty to ten. They lost

1671
01:15:52,040 --> 01:15:55,400
Speaker 3: thirty tens, Like thirty to ten. Dad, like, really, come on,

1672
01:15:56,000 --> 01:15:58,160
Speaker 3: so he said. I ended up getting on the floor

1673
01:15:58,640 --> 01:15:59,920
Speaker 3: and for the first time in my life, I like

1674
01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:03,040
Speaker 3: googled Joe Flacco to pull up highlights and be like, look,

1675
01:16:03,040 --> 01:16:06,040
Speaker 3: this is this is your dad, this is who I am. Okay,

1676
01:16:06,280 --> 01:16:08,599
Speaker 3: not thirty to ten. I used to actually win some games,

1677
01:16:08,600 --> 01:16:11,960
Speaker 3: and then you know, to get to have his kids

1678
01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:14,519
Speaker 3: see him to be playing at a level that you know,

1679
01:16:14,600 --> 01:16:17,040
Speaker 3: certainly he believed that he could play. And Jake Trotter

1680
01:16:17,040 --> 01:16:20,120
Speaker 3: wrote a great article on ESPN about throwing with him.

1681
01:16:20,320 --> 01:16:22,720
Speaker 3: His brother who's playing I think in the XFL just

1682
01:16:22,760 --> 01:16:26,759
Speaker 3: signed there. Tommy Flacco, great name. And then his dad

1683
01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:28,400
Speaker 3: and his dad would wear gloves and they just rib

1684
01:16:28,439 --> 01:16:29,920
Speaker 3: each other and stuff all this stuff to get ready.

1685
01:16:29,920 --> 01:16:32,720
Speaker 3: But it's so special and it's funny. So after his

1686
01:16:33,720 --> 01:16:37,599
Speaker 3: press conference last night, I was in the tunnel and

1687
01:16:38,000 --> 01:16:41,240
Speaker 3: he came out and we saw each other and start talking.

1688
01:16:41,280 --> 01:16:43,639
Speaker 3: And as I told the sweet miss k I said,

1689
01:16:43,840 --> 01:16:45,679
Speaker 3: I think he like. I think we get along because

1690
01:16:45,680 --> 01:16:46,880
Speaker 3: we're men of a similar age.

1691
01:16:46,920 --> 01:16:48,639
Speaker 4: That's what I said. She's like, well, you're a little

1692
01:16:48,640 --> 01:16:51,640
Speaker 4: bit older than him. I was like, yeah, but he's right,

1693
01:16:51,640 --> 01:16:55,360
Speaker 4: all right, right, you give me so he.

1694
01:16:56,800 --> 01:16:58,080
Speaker 2: You keep me.

1695
01:17:00,680 --> 01:17:01,520
Speaker 9: He uh.

1696
01:17:02,360 --> 01:17:04,519
Speaker 3: He was like, you know, man, he's like, you are

1697
01:17:04,600 --> 01:17:06,920
Speaker 3: so right about this city. Because remember after the first

1698
01:17:06,960 --> 01:17:08,800
Speaker 3: game he won in Cleveland, which was a Jags game,

1699
01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:10,840
Speaker 3: I was like, are you more popular right now in

1700
01:17:10,840 --> 01:17:12,040
Speaker 3: Cleveland you ever were in Baltimore.

1701
01:17:12,080 --> 01:17:13,639
Speaker 4: He goes, he thought it was a fair question. He goes,

1702
01:17:13,920 --> 01:17:14,439
Speaker 4: I might be.

1703
01:17:14,800 --> 01:17:15,760
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1704
01:17:15,840 --> 01:17:18,160
Speaker 4: He's like, there's no doubt now, he said.

1705
01:17:18,840 --> 01:17:22,800
Speaker 3: He said, I'm talking to my family and they're like,

1706
01:17:23,160 --> 01:17:27,639
Speaker 3: what is going on here? Like this is this Flaco fever,

1707
01:17:27,800 --> 01:17:28,640
Speaker 3: this pandemonium.

1708
01:17:28,640 --> 01:17:30,840
Speaker 4: Was like, dude, you won a super Bowl, like and

1709
01:17:30,960 --> 01:17:33,599
Speaker 4: right you are, like you're the king. This is nuts

1710
01:17:33,640 --> 01:17:33,920
Speaker 4: to us.

1711
01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:35,519
Speaker 3: And so he said his family's loving it. Obviously, his

1712
01:17:35,600 --> 01:17:37,960
Speaker 3: kids are loving it. He's having so much fun. It's

1713
01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:41,120
Speaker 3: a special locker room. They the bond that those guys

1714
01:17:41,160 --> 01:17:43,400
Speaker 3: have for one another was so special. I thought one

1715
01:17:43,400 --> 01:17:45,040
Speaker 3: of the coolest things. And I'm happy before I probably

1716
01:17:45,040 --> 01:17:46,880
Speaker 3: should have sidt the beginning. In case you didn't hear

1717
01:17:46,960 --> 01:17:49,600
Speaker 3: Kevin Stefanski, Elijah Moore is in the concussion protocol. He

1718
01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:51,800
Speaker 3: is at home, released from the hospital, and he is

1719
01:17:53,280 --> 01:17:55,840
Speaker 3: not It is not as scary as it appeared, because

1720
01:17:55,840 --> 01:17:58,120
Speaker 3: it certainly appeared to be very scary. And what I

1721
01:17:58,120 --> 01:17:59,679
Speaker 3: thought was so cool and the reason I bring elij

1722
01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:01,639
Speaker 3: up number one, so thankful that he's okay.

1723
01:18:02,080 --> 01:18:05,320
Speaker 4: This game meant a lot to Elijah Moore. I mean

1724
01:18:05,800 --> 01:18:06,320
Speaker 4: a lot.

1725
01:18:06,600 --> 01:18:09,040
Speaker 3: Talked to him pre game a lot, and it was

1726
01:18:09,040 --> 01:18:10,799
Speaker 3: pretty clear if you know some of our play calls

1727
01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:13,160
Speaker 3: in the red zone, they wanted him to get into

1728
01:18:13,200 --> 01:18:15,439
Speaker 3: the end zone, and so he got into the end

1729
01:18:15,520 --> 01:18:19,160
Speaker 3: zone on that play on that out route. And if

1730
01:18:19,360 --> 01:18:21,439
Speaker 3: I don't know if they showed it on Amazon Prime,

1731
01:18:22,000 --> 01:18:25,479
Speaker 3: but Flacco's reaction to that told you all you need

1732
01:18:25,520 --> 01:18:28,479
Speaker 3: to know, Like this is so into it, so into

1733
01:18:28,520 --> 01:18:32,639
Speaker 3: it for Elijah, for this team. It's just it's special.

1734
01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:32,840
Speaker 6: Man.

1735
01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:36,200
Speaker 3: And listen, everybody started, don't worry about twenty twenty four.

01:18:39,560 --> 01:18:42,479

01:18:42,640 --> 01:18:45,040
Speaker 3: why you love this football team, So why you love

1739
01:18:45,080 --> 01:18:45,479
Speaker 3: the sport.

1740
01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:47,960
Speaker 4: It's why we're in this business. Why why?

1741
01:18:48,360 --> 01:18:51,639
Speaker 3: I mean, I pinched myself, like what I was doing

1742
01:18:51,720 --> 01:18:55,280
Speaker 3: yesterday was insane, calling the Browns clinching a playoff game

1743
01:18:55,280 --> 01:18:58,080
Speaker 3: with the goat jim Donovan. You had this the section

1744
01:18:58,240 --> 01:19:01,160
Speaker 3: in front of us after every big play is turning

1745
01:19:01,240 --> 01:19:04,240
Speaker 3: around cheering Jimmy on while he makes the calls. Then

1746
01:19:04,240 --> 01:19:06,080
Speaker 3: they would play the call in the stadium, they'd all

1747
01:19:06,080 --> 01:19:09,479
Speaker 3: turn her in like it was yeah.

1748
01:19:09,360 --> 01:19:11,280
Speaker 4: Gengis was, Yeah, it was amazing.

1749
01:19:11,360 --> 01:19:13,720
Speaker 3: It was so special And what Joe Flacco's doing is

1750
01:19:13,760 --> 01:19:16,640
Speaker 3: so special and it's so not lost on him. And

1751
01:19:16,640 --> 01:19:18,600
Speaker 3: I think McAfee said it mess He goes, maybe this

1752
01:19:18,720 --> 01:19:22,120
Speaker 3: is the greatest internet run of any football person in

1753
01:19:22,160 --> 01:19:24,519
Speaker 3: the history of football, because like right now he's the

1754
01:19:24,520 --> 01:19:26,960
Speaker 3: most popularly, goes, I've never been this popular ever in

1755
01:19:27,040 --> 01:19:27,559
Speaker 3: my life.

1756
01:19:27,680 --> 01:19:30,160

Speaker 3: I mean, we got we've got people who are best

1777

Speaker 5: After our playoff clinching win over.

1778
01:20:47,040 --> 01:20:50,120
Speaker 2: New York if you watch football, and I watched a

1779
01:20:50,120 --> 01:20:52,920
Speaker 2: lot of it in between the various Christmases, you can

1780
01:20:52,960 --> 01:20:56,960
Speaker 2: beat anybody. Yes, there is nobody impervious. There is nobody

1781
01:20:56,960 --> 01:20:59,240
Speaker 2: that's unbeatable. The one thing that's kind of been a

1782
01:20:59,240 --> 01:21:00,800
Speaker 2: constant for me is, yeah, but you're gonna have to

1783
01:21:00,800 --> 01:21:03,479
Speaker 2: beat Mahomes. Well, they are not what they've been. They're

1784
01:21:03,479 --> 01:21:06,280
Speaker 2: not at all what they've been. Buffalo could be scary

1785
01:21:06,320 --> 01:21:07,800
Speaker 2: if they get in, but it took everything and they

1786
01:21:07,800 --> 01:21:10,599
Speaker 2: could to beat a backup quarterback in the Chargers. Heading

1787
01:21:10,640 --> 01:21:14,040
Speaker 2: into the Christmas weekend, you think about Miami, you think

1788
01:21:14,040 --> 01:21:16,400
Speaker 2: about the teams at the top of the AFC. Baltimore

1789
01:21:16,439 --> 01:21:19,240
Speaker 2: looks great, they look great, but you know you can

1790
01:21:19,280 --> 01:21:20,640
Speaker 2: beat them. You've done it.

1791
01:21:20,680 --> 01:21:21,080
Speaker 4: You've done it.

1792
01:21:21,120 --> 01:21:25,320
Speaker 2: So there isn't anybody in football right now that is impervious.

1793
01:21:25,640 --> 01:21:28,760
Speaker 2: And yeah, this could just be magical enough. And now

1794
01:21:28,800 --> 01:21:30,840
Speaker 2: you got you punched a ticket, baby, and you're in.

1795
01:21:31,200 --> 01:21:33,080
Speaker 2: And you got a veteran quarterback who's playing with a

1796
01:21:33,120 --> 01:21:35,559
Speaker 2: ton of confidence. You have an ability up front in

1797
01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:37,639
Speaker 2: the middle of your offensive line. You're very, very solid.

1798
01:21:37,800 --> 01:21:40,400
Speaker 2: You have a game wrecker at defensive end of Miles Garrett,

1799
01:21:40,439 --> 01:21:44,840
Speaker 2: who every single play reeks havoc, whether registers as a

1800
01:21:44,880 --> 01:21:46,840
Speaker 2: sack or not. His impact on the game. If you

1801
01:21:46,920 --> 01:21:49,360
Speaker 2: watch one of our games and don't go, my god,

1802
01:21:49,720 --> 01:21:53,679
Speaker 2: every play he affects it incredibly. You have playmakers everywhere,

1803
01:21:53,880 --> 01:21:56,040
Speaker 2: and you have a coach right now who sees it

1804
01:21:56,080 --> 01:21:58,679
Speaker 2: the same way as quarterback does. And that's a big,

1805
01:21:58,880 --> 01:22:01,400
Speaker 2: big deal. And you can tell it. It's this is

1806
01:22:02,080 --> 01:22:04,280
Speaker 2: this couldn't go a long way as kids. This isn't

1807
01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:06,320
Speaker 2: just oh, we're happy, we're in the dance. You got

1808
01:22:06,360 --> 01:22:11,000
Speaker 2: eleven wins. We've won three games in a row.

1809
01:22:11,040 --> 01:22:12,559
Speaker 3: I know it's four games in a row total, but

1810
01:22:12,560 --> 01:22:14,960
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say we've won three games in a row

1811
01:22:15,760 --> 01:22:18,519
Speaker 3: where we're we've given away ten points a game.

1812
01:22:19,080 --> 01:22:19,759
Speaker 2: Oh, it's crazy.

1813
01:22:19,800 --> 01:22:23,080
Speaker 3: Against the Bears, gave them fourteen, pick six and a

1814
01:22:23,120 --> 01:22:25,240
Speaker 3: pick back to the one yard line, pick six in

1815
01:22:25,280 --> 01:22:27,840
Speaker 3: this game, kick return the week before, on side kick

1816
01:22:27,880 --> 01:22:30,720
Speaker 3: recovery the week before, turnovers, a fumble that leads to

1817
01:22:30,720 --> 01:22:34,160
Speaker 3: a field goal. Like, we still haven't even played our

1818
01:22:34,240 --> 01:22:36,920
Speaker 3: best football. And at this point it's hard to say.

1819
01:22:36,960 --> 01:22:39,760
Speaker 3: Now we're sixteen games in, we've had one game without

1820
01:22:39,800 --> 01:22:41,640
Speaker 3: a turnover all year. That like, okay, maybe that's just

1821
01:22:41,680 --> 01:22:44,439
Speaker 3: who we are, unfortunately.

1822
01:22:44,240 --> 01:22:46,040
Speaker 4: But it works.

1823
01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:49,800
Speaker 3: But if we can somehow harness for a four game runner,

1824
01:22:49,880 --> 01:22:52,920
Speaker 3: maybe even you know, a three game run still in play,

1825
01:22:53,960 --> 01:22:59,799
Speaker 3: the ability to not do that. I mean, Joe Flacco

1826
01:23:00,240 --> 01:23:05,080
Speaker 3: has in his resume the greatest statistical playoff run in

1827
01:23:05,120 --> 01:23:07,200
Speaker 3: the history, Like I think it was ten or twelve touchdowns,

1828
01:23:07,280 --> 01:23:10,760
Speaker 3: no picks, the rating, all of it. Only the person

1829
01:23:10,800 --> 01:23:12,680
Speaker 3: I think as close as Montana had won a year

1830
01:23:12,720 --> 01:23:14,080
Speaker 3: where it was like that, flawless.

1831
01:23:14,120 --> 01:23:16,439
Speaker 2: And that's when he beat He won at Denver like

1832
01:23:16,479 --> 01:23:17,400
Speaker 2: they beat everyone a.

1833
01:23:18,360 --> 01:23:21,400
Speaker 3: Nver with a seventy five yard touched down the thirty

1834
01:23:21,439 --> 01:23:22,439
Speaker 3: seven seconds to go.

1835
01:23:22,560 --> 01:23:25,840
Speaker 2: That's right. Yeah, yeah, jobated in the Super Bowl against

1836
01:23:25,880 --> 01:23:27,599
Speaker 2: the Niners in New Orleans. Yeah, I was there for that.

1837
01:23:27,600 --> 01:23:28,639
Speaker 9: That's yeah.

1838
01:23:28,680 --> 01:23:30,040
Speaker 2: I mean, so he's gone, he's.

1839
01:23:29,880 --> 01:23:30,439
Speaker 4: Got it in it.

1840
01:23:30,560 --> 01:23:30,800
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1841
01:23:30,840 --> 01:23:36,439
Speaker 3: And and clearly by the way Amari, they late scratch,

1842
01:23:36,600 --> 01:23:38,519
Speaker 3: expected to go, tried to warm up, could not go,

1843
01:23:38,960 --> 01:23:40,680
Speaker 3: and we threw for two hundred ninety six yards in

1844
01:23:40,680 --> 01:23:41,280
Speaker 3: the first half.

1845
01:23:42,439 --> 01:23:45,960
Speaker 2: There's there's there's so many angles here to discuss in

1846
01:23:46,040 --> 01:23:49,719
Speaker 2: terms of giving people credit the job that Andrew Berry

1847
01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:53,160
Speaker 2: did with this roster, because when you think about a

1848
01:23:53,240 --> 01:23:55,800
Speaker 2: general manager and you think about your you're putting together

1849
01:23:55,840 --> 01:23:58,320
Speaker 2: a roster. Most of the attention is given to the

1850
01:23:58,360 --> 01:24:01,599
Speaker 2: first twenty two players, starters on both sides of the ball,

1851
01:24:01,720 --> 01:24:05,120
Speaker 2: some specialists. Then there's some guys backing those things up.

1852
01:24:05,520 --> 01:24:08,600
Speaker 2: But what he did one through fifty three, what he

1853
01:24:08,680 --> 01:24:11,639
Speaker 2: did all the way through the practice squad, those numbers.

1854
01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:15,240
Speaker 2: The idea that Ronnie Hickman, an undrafted free agent out

1855
01:24:15,240 --> 01:24:16,040
Speaker 2: of Ohio.

1856
01:24:15,760 --> 01:24:18,679
Speaker 4: Stud dude, Yeah, he's a stud.

1857
01:24:18,720 --> 01:24:21,640
Speaker 2: He's a stud. He had no idea he was going

1858
01:24:21,680 --> 01:24:23,160
Speaker 2: to start when he had to start a couple of

1859
01:24:23,160 --> 01:24:26,559
Speaker 2: weeks ago. Then last night gets a pick six, like

1860
01:24:26,760 --> 01:24:28,799
Speaker 2: he is a safety of the future of this team.

1861
01:24:29,080 --> 01:24:33,080
Speaker 2: He's an undrafted free agent. He's plopped in. Go kid,

1862
01:24:33,439 --> 01:24:36,719
Speaker 2: go make it? Okay, who's playing tackle for us? My god,

1863
01:24:36,800 --> 01:24:40,519
Speaker 2: I mean, this is the depth of talent that what

1864
01:24:40,600 --> 01:24:42,679
Speaker 2: has happened at the bottom of the draft, free agency,

1865
01:24:42,880 --> 01:24:44,559
Speaker 2: some of the guys who've come in, who they've called

1866
01:24:44,560 --> 01:24:46,920
Speaker 2: and found fits, who are on the streets, whether it's

1867
01:24:46,960 --> 01:24:48,840
Speaker 2: Kareem or we talked about Joe a lot, but like

1868
01:24:49,400 --> 01:24:52,880
Speaker 2: every single button, depth of the roster has been they're

1869
01:24:52,920 --> 01:24:54,599
Speaker 2: all hits. That's what makes this all work.

1870
01:24:55,720 --> 01:24:59,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, you think about the pro personnel department, Dan Sagney

1871
01:24:59,120 --> 01:25:01,479
Speaker 3: great in front of the program, the great SAgs, what

1872
01:25:01,560 --> 01:25:04,400
Speaker 3: they've had to do this year into putting it together,

1873
01:25:04,479 --> 01:25:06,439
Speaker 3: and you know, getting to talk to Kareem about how

1874
01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:07,960
Speaker 3: special it is to be back. By the way Kreem

1875
01:25:08,600 --> 01:25:13,800
Speaker 3: career high nine rushing touchdowns this season, like he wasn't here,

1876
01:25:14,040 --> 01:25:14,599
Speaker 3: not here.

1877
01:25:14,479 --> 01:25:16,760
Speaker 2: Until the chub injury. Then he comes in and now

1878
01:25:16,760 --> 01:25:19,479
Speaker 2: he's become like this short yardage heart and soul of

1879
01:25:19,520 --> 01:25:21,200
Speaker 2: the team guy.

1880
01:25:21,280 --> 01:25:24,680
Speaker 3: Okay, last night and I'm gonna we'll say, by the

1881
01:25:24,680 --> 01:25:26,360
Speaker 3: second half, they give me your pen.

1882
01:25:26,320 --> 01:25:28,160
Speaker 4: Real quick, so I can, I can, I can do

1883
01:25:28,240 --> 01:25:28,879
Speaker 4: this properly?

1884
01:25:28,920 --> 01:25:34,719
Speaker 3: All right. So last night, if you were at the Greenbrier, Okay,

1885
01:25:35,240 --> 01:25:40,280
Speaker 3: you're starting offense, so Jed Wills, Joel Batonio, Ethan Posik,

1886
01:25:40,640 --> 01:25:44,400
Speaker 3: Wyatt Teller and Jack Conklin Okay.

1887
01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:45,120
Speaker 4: Cross off too.

1888
01:25:45,160 --> 01:25:47,560
Speaker 3: So we're two five skill positions and I'm gonna go

1889
01:25:47,600 --> 01:25:48,479
Speaker 3: the second half of the game.

1890
01:25:48,479 --> 01:25:49,519
Speaker 4: Elijah Wore is now out of the game.

1891
01:25:49,760 --> 01:25:53,559
Speaker 3: Your top three receivers were Amari Cooper, Elijah Moore, and

1892
01:25:53,640 --> 01:25:55,440
Speaker 3: Donovan People's Jones.

1893
01:25:55,560 --> 01:25:57,080
Speaker 2: Boom boom, boom.

1894
01:25:56,760 --> 01:26:00,880
Speaker 3: Okay, your quarterback was Deshaun Watson. You're running back was

1895
01:26:00,960 --> 01:26:05,519
Speaker 3: Nick Chubb. The only skill player anybody who was supposed

1896
01:26:05,520 --> 01:26:09,520
Speaker 3: touch the ball that did that for you at the Greenbrier,

1897
01:26:09,560 --> 01:26:12,679
Speaker 3: and also in this game was David Nijoku. So you're

1898
01:26:12,720 --> 01:26:17,200
Speaker 3: talking four of eleven in the second half of this game. Now,

1899
01:26:17,200 --> 01:26:18,599
Speaker 3: that are often is good, but I'm saying, once elij

1900
01:26:18,600 --> 01:26:20,040
Speaker 3: went down, and even if you keep Ellies in, we're

1901
01:26:20,040 --> 01:26:22,559
Speaker 3: talking five of eleven. You're talking about your quarterback, you're

1902
01:26:22,600 --> 01:26:25,120
Speaker 3: running back, your two tackles, and you're two of your

1903
01:26:25,120 --> 01:26:26,120
Speaker 3: top three receivers.

1904
01:26:26,640 --> 01:26:29,760
Speaker 4: That's the ability to overcome that.

1905
01:26:29,840 --> 01:26:32,240
Speaker 3: And then you mentioned a guy like Ronnie Hickman steps

1906
01:26:32,240 --> 01:26:34,880
Speaker 3: and we lost Rodney McLoud An, Grant Delpit, the Anthony

1907
01:26:34,880 --> 01:26:39,720
Speaker 3: Bell's playing great, Rocket Hickman is playing unbelievable, and I

1908
01:26:39,960 --> 01:26:42,720
Speaker 3: love what they did. Jim Schwartz coach banda in with

1909
01:26:42,760 --> 01:26:45,720
Speaker 3: the safeties. If you notice, Thornhill and Hickman were out

1910
01:26:45,720 --> 01:26:48,680
Speaker 3: there a lot together in passing situations. And in the

1911
01:26:48,720 --> 01:26:51,000
Speaker 3: second half, you know why Garrett Wilson didn't make any plays.

1912
01:26:51,600 --> 01:26:54,160
Speaker 3: They just said, Garrett Wilson, you're not gonna make any plays.

1913
01:26:54,240 --> 01:26:56,240
Speaker 3: They had the corner in front, and Hickman went wherever

1914
01:26:56,280 --> 01:26:58,120
Speaker 3: he went and was over the top. They basically doubled

1915
01:26:58,160 --> 01:27:02,040
Speaker 3: him completely. And by the way, Trevor Simeon was more

1916
01:27:02,080 --> 01:27:05,320
Speaker 3: than content to pat I guess his completion percentage stats.

1917
01:27:05,360 --> 01:27:06,800
Speaker 3: I don't know what he was doing the end of game,

1918
01:27:06,920 --> 01:27:08,720
Speaker 3: but you can't keep throwing four yard passes in the

1919
01:27:08,760 --> 01:27:10,479
Speaker 3: middle of the field like as if there's an infinite

1920
01:27:10,520 --> 01:27:12,680
Speaker 3: amount of time, which he was doing. It's like, if

1921
01:27:12,720 --> 01:27:14,760
Speaker 3: you're not gonna try, just run the ball right and

1922
01:27:14,840 --> 01:27:16,960
Speaker 3: let's get out of here there. It was a very

1923
01:27:17,120 --> 01:27:18,599
Speaker 3: he didn't even try to throw one down the field.

1924
01:27:18,600 --> 01:27:21,639
Speaker 3: But I thought that was a great coaching adjustment because

1925
01:27:21,840 --> 01:27:23,240
Speaker 3: we talked earlier in the game. As soon as they

1926
01:27:23,280 --> 01:27:24,600
Speaker 3: saw one on one on the outside, they were just

1927
01:27:24,600 --> 01:27:26,160
Speaker 3: throwing it to get wilsons back shoulder. They hit the

1928
01:27:26,200 --> 01:27:28,240
Speaker 3: one for twenty and you know, tried a couple others,

1929
01:27:28,280 --> 01:27:31,080
Speaker 3: but I thought that was a great It was just

1930
01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:33,400
Speaker 3: you're right, this seemed though, the resilience of it, and

1931
01:27:33,439 --> 01:27:36,240
Speaker 3: you know, even like like that's a that's this is crazy,

1932
01:27:36,680 --> 01:27:40,680
Speaker 3: that's a nuts that's completely insane. Yeah, completely insane, and

1933
01:27:40,720 --> 01:27:43,160
Speaker 3: it does it doesn't even matter like Joe Flacco was

1934
01:27:43,520 --> 01:27:45,320
Speaker 3: the furthest thing that you were thinking of.

1935
01:27:45,439 --> 01:27:46,040
Speaker 4: By the way, PJ.

1936
01:27:46,160 --> 01:27:48,400
Speaker 3: Walker, who you correctly point out one a few games,

1937
01:27:48,439 --> 01:27:50,400
Speaker 3: he wasn't at the Green Bery. You picked him up

1938
01:27:50,680 --> 01:27:55,200
Speaker 3: after the fifty three man cuts. It's just the resilience

1939
01:27:55,200 --> 01:27:57,840
Speaker 3: of this team. It's because there are a couple things

1940
01:27:58,680 --> 01:28:00,600
Speaker 3: you give Andrew Berry credit and it's so fun to

1941
01:28:00,600 --> 01:28:04,000
Speaker 3: see him smiling and happy, which is awesome. But it

1942
01:28:04,080 --> 01:28:07,240
Speaker 3: wasn't just about the talents, and they did focus obviously

1943
01:28:07,240 --> 01:28:09,760
Speaker 3: on the on talented players, but it was a lot

1944
01:28:09,800 --> 01:28:12,280
Speaker 3: about the people and the mix that you have now

1945
01:28:12,320 --> 01:28:13,720
Speaker 3: of the veterans and we'll talk to the.

1946
01:28:13,640 --> 01:28:14,920
Speaker 4: Hoff about it.

1947
01:28:14,920 --> 01:28:17,160
Speaker 3: It's special, like the guys that we were able to

1948
01:28:17,160 --> 01:28:19,639
Speaker 3: be around last night, That's what they all just kept saying,

1949
01:28:19,640 --> 01:28:23,000
Speaker 3: like it's special. And you know, you think about teams

1950
01:28:23,479 --> 01:28:26,599
Speaker 3: that have gone on big runs that maybe on paper

1951
01:28:28,120 --> 01:28:30,599
Speaker 3: don't have their full arsenal or aren't the most talented

1952
01:28:30,640 --> 01:28:32,360
Speaker 3: relative to some of the other teams that have been

1953
01:28:32,439 --> 01:28:33,519
Speaker 3: hit harder by injury.

1954
01:28:33,840 --> 01:28:34,960
Speaker 4: There's a magic.

1955
01:28:34,640 --> 01:28:38,280
Speaker 3: About them where the whole is significantly greater than the

1956
01:28:38,280 --> 01:28:39,880
Speaker 3: some of the parts. And there's a magic about this

1957
01:28:39,920 --> 01:28:42,519
Speaker 3: Cleveland Browns team and I think part of that magic

1958
01:28:42,680 --> 01:28:45,679
Speaker 3: is what's going on in that locker room, the quality

1959
01:28:45,680 --> 01:28:48,639
Speaker 3: of human beings, the mix they brought in together, people

1960
01:28:48,800 --> 01:28:52,160
Speaker 3: just kind of who maybe thought it was gone, Like

1961
01:28:52,520 --> 01:28:57,000
Speaker 3: Joe Flacco thought his opportunity to play meaningful December football

1962
01:28:57,040 --> 01:29:00,759
Speaker 3: was probably gone. Kareem Hunt might have thought his NFL

1963
01:29:00,840 --> 01:29:03,439
Speaker 3: career was gone, and he has come back to his

1964
01:29:03,520 --> 01:29:10,280
Speaker 3: hometown so special with everybody there. It's it's a movie.

1965
01:29:10,280 --> 01:29:12,200
Speaker 3: It's a movie team. It is it's a movie team.

1966
01:29:12,360 --> 01:29:14,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is. This has been a remarkable year. I

1967
01:29:15,520 --> 01:29:18,920
Speaker 2: the the thing that meant I flipped over to you guys.

1968
01:29:19,160 --> 01:29:20,800
Speaker 2: You know, I wanted to hear it. We were watching

1969
01:29:20,840 --> 01:29:23,000
Speaker 2: on Amazon, and I mean sometimes it's hard to get

1970
01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:25,120
Speaker 2: it to sync up, you know with the TV the radio.

1971
01:29:25,120 --> 01:29:26,960
Speaker 2: But I'm like, I gotta hear I gotta hear this,

1972
01:29:27,200 --> 01:29:30,040
Speaker 2: and I you know that this that's the signature call

1973
01:29:30,080 --> 01:29:32,320
Speaker 2: of Gym's I think is all and the only thing

1974
01:29:32,400 --> 01:29:34,639
Speaker 2: missing was all of you. It was the perfect call.

1975
01:29:34,760 --> 01:29:36,240
Speaker 2: And then to have it go the other.

1976
01:29:36,120 --> 01:29:37,919
Speaker 9: Way was special.

1977
01:29:38,080 --> 01:29:39,880
Speaker 2: It was special. You guys, It was awesome. You guys

1978
01:29:39,880 --> 01:29:41,960
Speaker 2: had a great call all the way through. You guys

1979
01:29:42,000 --> 01:29:45,400
Speaker 2: had a great year. But it was even more special

1980
01:29:45,439 --> 01:29:47,400
Speaker 2: having the two of you together call it, and to

1981
01:29:47,439 --> 01:29:49,360
Speaker 2: do so over a house of which no seat was

1982
01:29:49,439 --> 01:29:51,240
Speaker 2: empty at the time of the end of the kick.

1983
01:29:51,720 --> 01:29:54,400
Speaker 3: He had to be there, had to he had to

1984
01:29:54,400 --> 01:29:56,120
Speaker 3: do it. And I'm gonna get all emotional, but it

1985
01:29:56,160 --> 01:29:58,800
Speaker 3: was I know how much it meant to him. Yeah,

1986
01:29:58,840 --> 01:30:01,639
Speaker 3: I know how much it meant to this city because

1987
01:30:01,640 --> 01:30:03,519
Speaker 3: he is the voice of this team. He is the

1988
01:30:03,560 --> 01:30:06,280
Speaker 3: voice of this city, is the voice of the generations

1989
01:30:06,320 --> 01:30:07,920
Speaker 3: of Browns fans out there.

1990
01:30:08,000 --> 01:30:11,559
Speaker 4: And there was a time when I think.

1991
01:30:11,400 --> 01:30:13,559
Speaker 3: He was not sure if he was going to be

1992
01:30:13,600 --> 01:30:16,600
Speaker 3: able to do this, and so that that he was.

1993
01:30:17,080 --> 01:30:18,680
Speaker 3: By the way, he hasn't lost yet this year. He's

1994
01:30:18,720 --> 01:30:21,840
Speaker 3: six and he's on this way just pure joy. Winning

1995
01:30:22,080 --> 01:30:26,240
Speaker 3: horse is getting a lot of carrots, thriving on the riving.

1996
01:30:26,479 --> 01:30:28,759
Speaker 2: It was just that was special.

1997
01:30:28,960 --> 01:30:30,919
