1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,480
Speaker 1: This year's that was different, but feel like the guys

2
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:04,840
Speaker 1: have a good understanding of what we're doing on all

3
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 1: three sides of the ball. Now is the time to compete.

4
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:10,399
Speaker 1: This is the Coach Kevin Stefanski Show Tonight. There's your

5
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:13,039
Speaker 1: chance to get a detailed peek behind the scenes from

6
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: team headquarters in Barria and you'll find out how the

7
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,360
Speaker 1: Browns are prepping for this week's game. This is the

8
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 1: University Hospital is Cleveland Brown's radio network. Here are your

9
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 1: host Smeathan Zigura and Geron Cherry. Good evening and welcome

10
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: into the Kevin Stefanski Show. All along the University Hospitals

11
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 1: Cleveland Brown's Radio Network. Nathan Szagura joined by the three time,

12
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 1: three time three time Super Bowl champion Gerard Cherry and

13
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: Gerard Here it is the Browns and the Ravens. The

14
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 1: Ravens and nine and four. The Browns unfortunately come into

15
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: this one at five and eight after losing down in

16
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 1: Cincinnati twenty three to ten last week. It was not

17
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 1: enough to get the job done against a big division

18
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 1: rival Gerard, but we did see improvements from the Shawn

19
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 1: Watson What did you take away from that game? Yeah,

20
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 1: from Deshaun Watson standpoint. I took away from it that

21
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 1: he grew in the form of a leader. He was

22
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,319
Speaker 1: definitely more confident in his approach to his teammates, how

23
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: he handled himself and contact him to conducted himself on

24
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: the sideline in the huddle, and I would even say

25
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: from a pass in the football standpoint, it was drastically

26
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: better than what we had seen the previous week, and

27
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: that I don't recall seeing any balls hit the ground

28
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: Nathan and I certainly saw a greater sense of command

29
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: of the huddle and his presence is on the football

30
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: field in motivating and encouraging guys. The week prior, he

31
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 1: needed his guys to pick him up. It seemed to

32
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 1: me this time around he was much more definitive in

33
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: his actions as a signal caller. And that type of

34
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 1: stuff matters, because what differentiates a college quarterback from a

35
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 1: pro quarterback is that in college you rarely huddle, and

36
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,799
Speaker 1: in the pros you puddle and guys ain't looking your

37
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 1: eyes and see the intensity and that fire and that confidence,

38
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,920
Speaker 1: and he certainly gave that. Yeah, there's certainly is a

39
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,919
Speaker 1: lot of belief into Shaun Watson in this building. Watson

40
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,640
Speaker 1: last week forty two seventy six yards a touchdown. The

41
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 1: interception he ran for thirty three yards as well, But

42
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 1: I thought you saw his ability if you know, Brown's

43
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 1: fans were gonna take anything away in structure, some beautiful throws,

44
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: including an unbelievable dig to Donovan People's Jones where the

45
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: ball just kind of just on a laser beam went

46
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: right to him. He didn't have to break stride at all,

47
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 1: and then out of structure of the busted screen that

48
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 1: he turns into a chunk play throwing the ball while

49
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: being tackled thirty yards accurately down the field. The Donovan

50
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,080
Speaker 1: People's Jones, who by the way, had a career high

51
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,239
Speaker 1: eight catches and a career high on fourteen yards, and

52
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 1: that one drudge. He took some strides there. He missed

53
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: some reads in the first half. Everybody's kind of talked

54
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: about that he has as well, but it felt like

55
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: as the game went on he saw it better. And

56
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: it was a massive leap from week one to week two.

57
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 1: If you see another leap like that, look out, this

58
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 1: guy is gonna be back. And you heard Marlon Humphrey

59
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,679
Speaker 1: this week in preparation for the game. Call him a

60
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 1: top five quarterback in the NFL, and he certainly is.

61
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,959
Speaker 1: And think about it. One to throw the ball forty

62
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: two times, you this is your I call his second

63
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 1: preseason game, so he's already doing things. I had a

64
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 1: schedule in my mind because typically in the second preseason

65
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: game you may play a quarter or two, if that right.

66
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 1: So he played an entire game in the process of

67
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: playing an entire game, Nathan, as you observed, he's running around,

68
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: he's making plays, he's doing certain things. And on top

69
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: of that, the Bengals, give them credit, they were smart

70
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 1: drop seven guys in at times they dropped eight guys

71
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 1: in the coverage. So I understand from not trusting what

72
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: you see standpoint, he was going to get us a

73
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: defense that's in season form, not mid season form, but

74
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: season form, and he's trying to get to preseason form

75
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: and he's so for me, it was a heck of

76
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 1: a jump. So I was very impressed with what I saw.

77
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 1: Despite the interception and other plays, I'm sure he would

78
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: won back. I thought he did very well. Yeah, and

79
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: listen it. The reality is the Browns are kind of

80
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: in a little bit of a preseason offense. While the

81
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 1: rest of the league is as you mentioned that in

82
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 1: mid season form there in almost full season form, and

83
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 1: so that has been a challenge. We've seen that, but

84
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: we've seen them get better. And that's what's important obviously

85
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 1: for this team, and what's important over the next four games.

86
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: You're still in it. Mathematically, you're gonna have to go

87
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: four O get a lot of help around the league.

88
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: But listen, as I was told today, this was actually

89
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,359
Speaker 1: great buoyed my spirits drone. At one point, the Jets

90
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: had a point one percent chance to beat the Cleveland

91
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 1: Browns in Week two. We all know the Browns unfortunately

92
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 1: did lose that game. The Browns have a point four

93
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: percent chance right now to make the playoffs. So four

94
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: time is as good as what the Jets had, and

95
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 1: they did it, so we still got something to play for. Well,

96
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: I guess each one of those points fours will represent

97
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: for a game, because it's one thing to have a

98
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 1: game or a half left the player or a quarter

99
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,160
Speaker 1: if you will, and get the job done. But I

100
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: get what you're saying that beyond that, though, Nathan, here's

101
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 1: what I will say. This is your opportunity if you're

102
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 1: on this football team to prove even more so what

103
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,720
Speaker 1: you're all about. Are you a problem or are you

104
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: the solution? Moving forward? There four games to give us

105
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: sample size to the powers that be, and not just

106
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 1: here but around the National Football League what you represent

107
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: as a player, and you do not want the last

108
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 1: four to be a bad because you know what they remember, Nate,

109
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 1: They remember the last four. So if you are on

110
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: a spot to where you're trying to survive and stay

111
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 1: in the league, you better make this move your best move.

112
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: You will and you'll get an opportunity and a division

113
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: game against the division leading Baltimore Ravens this week nine

114
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 1: and four, a team that the Browns lost to twenty

115
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 1: three to twenty back in Week seven. But it will

116
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,279
Speaker 1: be different this time around for the Browns. We know

117
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 1: the linebacking corps decimated in the first to me eating

118
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 1: For example, you had Siona Taki Taki, Jacob Phillips, Jeremiah

119
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 1: Sukormoa combined for twenty one tackles, two tackles for lost,

120
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 1: two passes defense, and a force fumble. None of those

121
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 1: men will be playing. All of them have suffered season

122
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 1: ending injuries for the Cleveland brown So that linebacking corps

123
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,280
Speaker 1: will look very differently. Dion Jones will play the lion

124
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 1: share of the Snaps Tony Fields and then Reggie Raglan,

125
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 1: who the team signed off the Las Vegas practice squad

126
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 1: last week. He will get an opportunity at well six

127
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: to two fifty two, a big thumper. But Gerade, this

128
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 1: is an offense even without Lamar Jackson, he is out.

129
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 1: Tyler Huntley will start on Saturday for the Baltimore Ravens.

130
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: Huntley this season seventy nine point five percent completions two

131
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 1: and seventy five yards, one touchdown, eight three rating led

132
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 1: the comeback drive against Denver for a game winner. There,

133
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: he's gonna get the start. They're gonna run the ball.

134
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: Dobbins is back. They are going to stress the linebackers.

135
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,919
Speaker 1: What does that read option stuff due to linebackers? What

136
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 1: do those they pull sometimes away from where they're actually

137
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 1: going a lot of I candy And they've got, of course,

138
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 1: the best fullback in the league and Patrick Ricard. Well,

139
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 1: here's the thing. You go back and you watch the film,

140
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 1: and what you're gonna find is that Huntley is Lamar

141
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: Jackson light. Obviously he's not as dynamic and explosive as

142
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, but he definitely can't get the job done,

143
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 1: and he's effective in this offense. He's proven that. But

144
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 1: for me and my mindset is is that you know

145
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: what they're gonna do. They're not gonna make any secrets

146
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: about it whatsoever. They're going to physically try to dominate

147
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 1: you play smash moll football and see if you're willing

148
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 1: to tackle and be in the right place at the

149
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: right time to make a play. This is gonna be

150
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: a really simple game. They don't have a passing game.

151
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 1: So if you're honoring the RPO and worrying about passes,

152
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: why they don't pass that well. They run the football

153
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 1: extremely well, and this game is gonna be one in

154
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 1: the trenches and on top of there with inclement weather.

155
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 1: Anticipate even more so the idea that this is an

156
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: easy read. If I know my run keys, then I

157
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 1: will have a really good football game from a tackling standpoint,

158
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: especially if I'm playing the linebacker. For issue, I don't

159
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: think it'll be that Harbor game. In honesty, Nathan well Good,

160
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 1: we need that to be the case. They need to

161
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 1: read the keys, understand who's got the football. It'll either

162
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: be Huntley. As you mentioned, Huntley an effective runner for

163
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 1: his career. H He's been able to average about five

164
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 1: yards per carry for his career and somebody that can

165
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 1: put up big numbers kind of as a runner. And

166
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: that's something that the Browns I think need to be

167
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 1: careful for in this one because you look at him

168
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 1: three nine yards, three touchdowns on the ground, uh, five

169
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: touchdowns passing, but eight interceptions, five fumbles. You can take

170
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: the ball away from. In fact, last year he played

171
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 1: against the Browns in the game at First Energy Stadium,

172
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 1: came in relief of the ninjured Lamar Jackson, went for

173
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: two seventy with a touchdown, six rushes forty five yards,

174
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: but he was sacked three times, two forth fumbles and

175
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 1: one of the Miles Garrett sack strip fumble touchdown was

176
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 1: a game changer there. You mentioned they don't really throw it.

177
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 1: When they do, they throw it to Mark Andrews fifty

178
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 1: eight catches, six one yards, five touchdowns, but Andrews blanked

179
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 1: by the Browns in the last meeting, and that was

180
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: something an incredible feat by the Brown's defense. He is

181
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 1: one of the absolute vest ride. If they are going

182
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: to throw it, that's the guy you're worried about. Certainly

183
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 1: that is their main primary target, and he is very effective.

184
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 1: In the past, he has done a tremendous job of

185
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 1: just fought out, taking advantage of us, and being very productive.

186
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: But that last game was very impressive because he was

187
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 1: shut out and they did a stellar job of doing that,

188
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: because coming into the game, one of the goals was

189
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,959
Speaker 1: to do what shut him down, and we certainly did that. Ultimately,

190
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 1: we didn't get the job done. Or when you go

191
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 1: back to that last game and Nathan and granted to

192
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 1: anticipate this being much different because obviously you don't have

193
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,199
Speaker 1: the two starting quarterbacks who played in that game available,

194
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:39,959
Speaker 1: But that was once again one of those games in

195
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: which I felt we should have won and that we

196
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: just agreed certain things and ultimately we gave the game

197
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 1: away and let us slip away. And then obviously there

198
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: are some calls at the end that didn't help. The

199
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 1: calls as well that result in us losing the game.

200
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: But it's gonna be a different game all around. I

201
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,439
Speaker 1: think this game is gonna be even more physical because

202
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 1: of the weather conditions and a simple fact that one

203
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 1: team will certainly want to run more than pass. Because

204
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 1: of heck, the weather one, you can probably facilitate the idea.

205
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: If the win kicks up to pass the football, yeah,

206
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 1: they're gonna want to run it no matter what. By

207
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: the way, Mark Andrews seven touchdowns in his last seven

208
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 1: games for against Cleveland, that's the second most of any

209
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 1: player against one team since two thousand nineteen. Only Davante

210
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: Adams as a member of the Packers had more eight

211
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 1: against Minnesota. You said they will run it. J K.

212
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: Dobbins back. He had a hundred twenty yards and a

213
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: touchdown versus Pittsburgh last week. He back in twenty as

214
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 1: a rookie, led the NFL six yards per carry. He's

215
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 1: a very talented player. Had missed all of last year

216
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: with an a c L really has only been around

217
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 1: in five games and in the first four had a

218
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty three yards rushing. He had one twenty

219
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 1: last week to drive. He looked healthy. He's somebody you

220
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 1: have to account for. And then Gus Edwards, the big fella,

221
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 1: two hundred thirty five pounds. He had sixty six and

222
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 1: two touchdowns in the first meeting. So that's the one

223
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 1: two punch in that ground game, along with the quarterback Huntley. Yeah, exactly,

224
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 1: and again you have it on tape, so there will

225
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 1: be no unpleasant surprises here. You've seen him before, so

226
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,679
Speaker 1: only you won't be mystified and blown away by what

227
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 1: they want to do. Will they be some wrinkles, of

228
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:02,719
Speaker 1: course there will be, But ultimately, I think what they're

229
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 1: gonna say is, Lessie, if their interior can slow down

230
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 1: what we're trying to accomplish, especially with guys who haven't

231
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: played that much being now on a football field and

232
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: linebacker position, I really believe it's gonna come down to that.

233
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:15,680
Speaker 1: And of course they're gonna throw some wrinkles in there

234
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 1: because there's always gonna be first second down. In short,

235
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 1: they're gonna be some long distance situations where we're gonna

236
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: have to get off the football fielding he's gonna have

237
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: to pass. But ultimately, Nathan, if you're a linebacker, you're

238
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: dreaming about this matchup because you're gonna have an opportunity

239
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 1: be extremely physical with a football team. Yeah, that's gonna

240
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 1: do some rpo stuff, but ultimately they're gonna hand that

241
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 1: football off and see if you can tackle. Yeah, that's

242
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 1: what the Browns are going to have to do. Is tackle,

243
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 1: by the way, just a crazy stat. The Ravens have

244
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 1: not a lust had a wide receiver catch a touchdown

245
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 1: pass intense straight games. The last one was Week three

246
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 1: against New England Devon DuVernay a four yard touchdown from

247
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,679
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. When the Browns have the ball, there will

248
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 1: take on one of the best defenses in the NFL.

249
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 1: The Ravens since acquiring ro Kuan Smith in Week nine

250
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,319
Speaker 1: second end points per game, third in yards for game,

251
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: number one against the run, number one in yards per carry,

252
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: number one on third downs. They are second in the

253
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 1: NFL and takeaways fifth in the NFL. In sacks, they

254
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 1: have not allowed a single one yard rusher this season.

255
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: In fact, Nick Chub's ninete yards in Week seven was

256
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: the most against the Ravens this year. This is a

257
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 1: really good defense at all three levels. Two great corners,

258
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 1: a great free safety. You got the veterans upfront, Campbell Houston,

259
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,719
Speaker 1: Pierre Paul oh Way, the young guy who can all

260
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 1: get after the quarterback, and then Smith and Queen at

261
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: the second level. It's a good defense. Drive people are

262
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 1: not scoring on them, and that's why they're winning exactly,

263
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 1: and they're creating turnovers left and right, and seeing with

264
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 1: the addition of Smith, Queen is starting to blossom even

265
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 1: more so. And think about last time we played, I

266
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 1: can recall Queen doing something that hopefully he will not

267
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 1: be able to get away with this upcoming Saturday, and

268
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:48,599
Speaker 1: that he was doing a lot of the shooting the

269
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 1: gap because we weren't flipping and switching up the counts,

270
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 1: so he was just pretty much taking a guess and

271
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: he was guessing right. So that's gonna be interesting to

272
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 1: see if they go with that strategy again. Far is

273
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,559
Speaker 1: just putting pressure on our offensive line and us as

274
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 1: of laid officive line has not been as dominating the trenches,

275
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,080
Speaker 1: but when you took down to your fourth center, that's

276
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,199
Speaker 1: to be understood. So it's gonna be a challenge for

277
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: offensive line because right now the Ravens are saying, we're

278
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 1: going to bully you. That's what they play and try

279
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: to do across the board on all three levels of

280
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 1: their defense. Cornerbacks are gonna hold you, They're gonna be physical,

281
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 1: Safeties are gonna get their shots in middle linebackers are

282
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 1: very aggressive and physical, and obviously you just spoke about

283
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 1: the defensive line and what they try to do as well.

284
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 1: So you want to get a very physical football team

285
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 1: who does not And I do appreciate this about them.

286
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,319
Speaker 1: They do not mind playing old school field positions, smash

287
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 1: my football. They don't care if the scores ten to

288
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 1: six or nine to six or three to twelve, they

289
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:46,200
Speaker 1: don't care. They're all about that smoke. Their last three

290
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,319
Speaker 1: wins thirteen to three over Carolina, ten to nine over Denver,

291
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 1: sixteen to fourteen over Pittsburgh. Ya. Yeah, they're not afraid

292
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: to play those low scoring games. They also know they

293
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 1: have the best kicker in NFL history in Justin Tucker

294
00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: to put it through. But you made a good point

295
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 1: those linebackers. Last time Patrick Queen had eleven tackles, three

296
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 1: tackles for losses. He had a sack as well, knifing in.

297
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,120
Speaker 1: And you know, one of the things is when you're

298
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 1: on the road, it's a little bit tougher to change

299
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 1: up your snapcounts. The communication not as good at home.

300
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 1: The Brown should be able to disguise that a little

301
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 1: bit better and hopefully that will keep Queen at Bay Drive.

302
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 1: Klais Campbell next sack that he gets will be the

303
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 1: one hundredth of his career. This is a team that's

304
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 1: got three guys with more than ninety career sacks, Pierre

305
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: Paul Justin Houston's got a hundred and eleven Pierre Paul

306
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 1: ninety three point five Campbell. That's crazy, right, Campbellsville League.

307
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: This is his fifteenth season a six time pro bowler.

308
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: He was on the All two thousand Tens Decade team.

309
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: Still five and a half sacks this year he has

310
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: been sensational and at six eight, three hundred pounds, he

311
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 1: is always a handful as he isn't correct me if

312
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 1: we're on Did you start out in Jacksonville and with

313
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: the Arizona and then now wind up in Baltimore? Is

314
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 1: that how it went? It may have been Arizona, then Jacksonville,

315
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 1: then Baltimore. I know he's had anyway, he's being productive

316
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 1: no matter where he's yes, no time about that. Matter

317
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: of fact, I think he got Special Teams Player of

318
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: the Week for blocking the punt a field goal. Rather yeah,

319
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 1: and that's the thing. Remember they get blocked to kick

320
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 1: against us in week seven. We have absolutely got to

321
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: keep our head on a swivel about and that's something

322
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 1: part of our Special Teams operation. We gotta make sure

323
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 1: we are executing at a high level to prevent that.

324
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 1: This team they do it all, they do it all,

325
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 1: and they do it all very well. Yeah, he was

326
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 1: in Arizona. He was a first round pick of the

327
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals back in two thousand and eight. Gurade two

328
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 1: thousand and eight in the second round. I'm sorry, fifty

329
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 1: overall in that draft. He was with Arizona through the

330
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 1: two thousand and sixteen season, then to Jacksonville when they

331
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 1: had those great defenses. Eighteen nineteen they went to a a

332
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 1: NFC championship game with Blake Bortles, that's how good the

333
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 1: defense was. And then to Baltimore the last three seasons.

334
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 1: Was a Pro bowlers recently as that season with the

335
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens. This will be a handful. It will be

336
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 1: a very tough team. They are sound, they do not

337
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 1: turn the ball over, they take it away from you.

338
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 1: They make life difficult on you defensively, and they wear

339
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: you down offensively with that ground game. And then they've

340
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 1: got the best kicker, as I said, and really best

341
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 1: special teams unit. Devin dubern A is the Pro Bowl

342
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: All Pro returner as well. So this is a complete team.

343
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 1: The Browns will have to be about their business to

344
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 1: get a win against the nine and four division leading Ravens. Fans,

374
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 1: fact or fiction and by the way, big one coming

375
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 1: up Tonight nine or Seahawks Thills are some of the

376
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,399
Speaker 1: great games of the early two thousand intends the legion

377
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: of boom going back and forth. But let's talk right

378
00:17:56,040 --> 00:18:00,400
Speaker 1: now about a new head coach, Sean Payton. Men people

379
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 1: saying speculating he will be back in the NFL in

380
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 1: the three season, So our question for tonight factor fiction

381
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 1: next season? Sean Payton will be the head coach of

382
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 1: either the Los Angeles Rams or the Los Angeles Chargers.

383
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,879
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with fiction. McVeigh still has currency. He

384
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,920
Speaker 1: just won a Super Bowl a season ago, so he's

385
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 1: still good to go if he wants to stick around.

386
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 1: And I have heard reports that he may consider going

387
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 1: into the booth. I'd be surprised by that, but Madden

388
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,239
Speaker 1: did it at forty, but he's not even quite that

389
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 1: old yet, So I'm gonna say fiction. And also, I

390
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 1: believe Staley is gonna actually make the playoffs with the Chargers,

391
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: so he'll be safe. So fiction, I'm gonna go fact.

392
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 1: I'm calling it right now. Sean Payton will be the

393
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 1: next head coach of the Los Angeles Chargers and get

394
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,880
Speaker 1: an opportunity to work with Justin Herbert, all that talent Stalley.

395
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 1: You may say, even if they make the playoffs, he

396
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,639
Speaker 1: may get raw deal because look at they've been dealing

397
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:56,119
Speaker 1: without Bosa. This was the first game all year that

398
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 1: Mike Williams and Keenan Allen both played and started and

399
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 1: finished a game for them. They haven't had Rashawn Slater

400
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:05,160
Speaker 1: and but Justin Herbert. I think that's where Peyton wants

401
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 1: to go. The question will be will the Chargers ownership

402
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 1: pony up for Sean Payton. I think ultimately the answer

403
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 1: is yes. The other little one I'll throw out there

404
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: is Arizona, the Arizona Cardinals. Could that be a place

405
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 1: that Sean Payton ends up. The late injury to Kyler

406
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 1: Murray that puts a little bit of a damper on

407
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:24,360
Speaker 1: that one from my perspective. All Right, rank the following

408
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: trades in his NFL history from one to three. Will

409
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 1: start with the number three, will go three to one.

410
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 1: Worst trades in NFL history. Option one. Denver gets Russell

411
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: Wilson in the fourth round pick in exchange for tight

412
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,919
Speaker 1: Endo a Fan quarterback, Drew Lock defensive and Shelby Harris

413
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 1: and three first round picks and three second round picks

414
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 1: and a fifth round pick the Ricky Williams trade in nine.

415
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,679
Speaker 1: This is insane. The Saints and Mike Ditka traded every

416
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,399
Speaker 1: single pick it had in the draft, plus two of

417
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 1: its first three picks in the two thousand draft. Every

418
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: pick in the draft, Folks, plus their first three picks

419
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,920
Speaker 1: in the following draft for the fifth overall pick to

420
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 1: take a running back was Ricky Williams. And then there's

421
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,200
Speaker 1: the herschel Walker trade with Minnesota and in small part

422
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 1: the Charger's largest trade in NFL history. Dallas use all

423
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,120
Speaker 1: those picks to put together the team that won three

424
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:19,199
Speaker 1: Super Bowls in the nineties. Minnesota never even made it

425
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl with herschel Walk all right, right?

426
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 1: Which one is number three for your third worst? All

427
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 1: right now? Because we still have room to let it

428
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,639
Speaker 1: see it played itself out and see how bad it

429
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 1: actually becomes. As the Russell Wilson trade, it's too early

430
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,880
Speaker 1: to write that bad boy off right now. It seems bad,

431
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 1: but there's always next season in the duration of this contract.

432
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 1: Who's to say he doesn't flip the script and turn

433
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: things around. So I'm going to put that at number three.

434
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 1: I couldn't agree with you anymore, Russy. You saw a

435
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 1: little glimpse last week of you know, maybe serting to

436
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 1: get it together. There is some talent. Obviously it was

437
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 1: a wasted season this year. But it's too early to

438
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 1: put the nail on the coffin on the trade, whereas

439
00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 1: the other two we can do that right now. So okay,

440
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,439
Speaker 1: which one of these two? Ricky Williams and herschel Walker

441
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,159
Speaker 1: is worse well. As I alluded to earlier, I was

442
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 1: directly impacted by the Ricky Williams trade because I was

443
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,479
Speaker 1: actually on the roster of the New Orleans Saints at

444
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,879
Speaker 1: the time, and I was blown away by the fact

445
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,679
Speaker 1: that this team took his whole entire draft for one player,

446
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 1: and it had to be a running back. And trust me,

447
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 1: we were not a running back away from being a

448
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: good football team. I don't know why Mike Dicka felt that,

449
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 1: thought that since that believe that promoted that and traded

450
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 1: for that, but he did just that. But with that

451
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: being said, it's still number two. Number one has to

452
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:38,360
Speaker 1: be what the Minnesota Vikings gave up because it led

453
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 1: to what it led to the Dallas Cowboys being the

454
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:44,879
Speaker 1: team of the nineties dynasty exactly. So if your trade

455
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 1: doesn't result in you benefiting and the other squad ends

456
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:49,920
Speaker 1: up being a team and which has multiple Hall of

457
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 1: Fame players and these guys are still very present to

458
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: this very day in the world of football. From a

459
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 1: media standpoint and all that represents and record standpoint and

460
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 1: what that represents, you have to say that trade with

461
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,119
Speaker 1: the Vikings and the Cowboys, A little bit of the

462
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 1: charges involved was the absolute worst one. Yeah, I will

463
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:10,119
Speaker 1: agree with you, and partially because the Ricky Williams trade

464
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:13,720
Speaker 1: produced that crazy Sports Illustrated cover of Ditka and Ricky

465
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,119
Speaker 1: Williams as his bride, which is something that is iconic

466
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 1: and last forever. But the notion like if you told

467
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,359
Speaker 1: GMS that had never heard about this and it twenty

468
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 1: years ago, somebody would have traded their entire draft plus

469
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,359
Speaker 1: the first three picks of the next RAF for a

470
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,199
Speaker 1: running back. People in twenty year two, people say they

471
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 1: would laugh at you. They would say that is absolutely insane.

472
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 1: Both of those trades were insane. The herschel Walker trade though,

473
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: set up, as you mentioned, the dynasty for the Dallas

474
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: Cowboys to win three Super Bowls. The picks that they

475
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 1: got out of that are the players that you know

476
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:48,680
Speaker 1: when you think of those Cowboys teams. Absolutely incredible that

477
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:52,160
Speaker 1: that actually happened. When we come back here on the program,

478
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,160
Speaker 1: we were gonna sit down with Brown's head coach Kevin

479
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 1: Stefanski still to come, Jedevi and Clowney, but really quickly

480
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: drought stock up and step up for you ahead of

481
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,119
Speaker 1: into this game against the Ravens. Who stock is up

482
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 1: for you? For me, it's a quarterback, Deshaun Watson. I

483
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:07,639
Speaker 1: love what I saw last week. I don't feel he

484
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:10,919
Speaker 1: made incremental steps. I felt he made exponential steps. And

485
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,399
Speaker 1: how he handled himself and conduct himself as the leader

486
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 1: on the football team, and how he threw the football

487
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 1: and the plays that he made. So I was very

488
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 1: impressed with what I saw, and I'm looking for him

489
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,399
Speaker 1: to do even more to step up. Agreed, And then

490
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: who needs to who needs to step up for you?

491
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 1: It's really simple, and you're gonna have a lot of

492
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 1: guys playing that middle linebacker position and having a lot

493
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 1: of opportunities to come their way because I am certain

494
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,679
Speaker 1: that the Ravens are gonna go full bore and full

495
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 1: speed ahead at our linebackers to see if these guys

496
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,919
Speaker 1: can communicate and tackle, So they're gonna have to step up.

497
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,359
Speaker 1: I think you're exactly right, Watson, stock up, step up

498
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: the linebackers, really the run defense in general to deal

499
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,720
Speaker 1: with the Baltimore Ravens. The sports world is full of myths,

500
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:52,679
Speaker 1: but maybe the guess one is the sure thing, the

501
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:54,920
Speaker 1: bet that can't lose. The truth is do no matter

502
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 1: how confident you are about now come. Nothing is a given.

503
00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 1: I want to hear more myths like this one. Go

504
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 1: to keep it fun Ohio dot com. When we come

505
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 1: back on the Kevin Stefanci Show, you'll hear from the

506
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,920
Speaker 1: man for whom this show was named Brown said Coach

507
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 1: Kevin Stefanski. You're listening all along the University Hospitals Cleveland

508
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:14,920
Speaker 1: Brown's Radio network. You're listening to the University Hospitals, Cleveland

509
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,400
Speaker 1: Brown's Radio network. Welcome back to the Kevin Stefanski Show,

510
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 1: all along the University Hospitals Cleveland Brown's Radio Network. Very

511
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 1: happy now to be joined by the head coach of

512
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,920
Speaker 1: your Cleveland Browns, Kevin Stefanski. And coach, let's go back

513
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,920
Speaker 1: to Cincinnati. What went right? What went wrong in that game?

514
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,479
Speaker 1: And what do you take away from it? Well, you know,

515
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,800
Speaker 1: disappointed with how it ends. You know, you really these

516
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 1: guys put a ton of work into this. You get

517
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 1: down there versus good football team on the road, and

518
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 1: you gotta play clean and we just didn't do enough

519
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 1: of those things on the road in terms of playing clean.

520
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 1: Scorn when we get down the red zone, getting off

521
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: the field and money downs. Uh, you know, obviously special

522
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 1: teams had had a big play that flipped the field

523
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,440
Speaker 1: there for so ultimately just came up short. And that

524
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 1: it was the frustrating part again for how hard these

525
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 1: guys were to get down there and thought we'd play. Uh,

526
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,440
Speaker 1: we should have played better than we did, and that ultimately,

527
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:05,679
Speaker 1: you know, I gotta make sure that we do that

528
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 1: in terms of the flags, because there were a lot

529
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,240
Speaker 1: in the first half and that really changed the game.

530
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 1: Both of their touchdowns came after drives that should have

531
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 1: been over. It's like dropping a foul ball to a

532
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,119
Speaker 1: big time home run hitter. When you went back and

533
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,919
Speaker 1: watched it, where they technique things, where they mental errors?

534
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:22,639
Speaker 1: What was what led to that kind of abundance, unfortunately

535
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:24,640
Speaker 1: of flags in the first half, And it was really

536
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,640
Speaker 1: those those three in a row really really stung us

537
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 1: and the rough roughing the punter. Uh. Obviously, Tony's playing

538
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 1: hard and he's playing fast, and we've got to be

539
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 1: under control. That's uh, that's an easy one for them

540
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 1: to call. Uh. Is it a lack of effort? Notes

541
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 1: not um, But we obviously have to be more aware

542
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 1: in that situation because that really turns into a turnover.

543
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 1: It's really a turnover given the ball back to them.

544
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:52,399
Speaker 1: So we we can be better there. I know Tony

545
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 1: will be better there in that moment to make sure

546
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,720
Speaker 1: that we have no contact there. Uh. And then you

547
00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,679
Speaker 1: got a big sack on second down and you get

548
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 1: hands to face and that's something that you know, our

549
00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 1: guys are coached to keep their hands in the breastplate

550
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 1: and and sometimes it does move up and and they

551
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,640
Speaker 1: caught us there. That hurts you. Then you get dp

552
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 1: I and you know, listen, going back and forth, there's

553
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:16,359
Speaker 1: there's a lot of hand checking. There's a lot of

554
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 1: that on both sides, and you just have to play

555
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 1: clean in any of those situations. You don't want to

556
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 1: make it close for the officials, I would say is

557
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 1: the biggest one. So uh, the you know, any penalty

558
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,159
Speaker 1: you're always frustrated by. You look at it and you say,

559
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:30,720
Speaker 1: all right, what could the guy have done differently? What

560
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 1: can we coach differently? Can we you know, can we

561
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,879
Speaker 1: get out of there and and just have hand fighting?

562
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,640
Speaker 1: Sometimes that's the case. Sometimes they get you, but ultimately

563
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 1: we have to play clean football. Because it was just

564
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:45,639
Speaker 1: an example there in that stretch where the ball just

565
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 1: makes its way down the field and it's aided by penalties.

566
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 1: Fifty yards on that one drive. And there was another

567
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:51,640
Speaker 1: where you were going to get off on a third

568
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 1: down and they called a hold on Ronny, which and

569
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 1: watching it back, I'll say, you don't have to I

570
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,399
Speaker 1: thought it's pretty weak and certainly had nothing to do

571
00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 1: with the play there. But you learn from that, you

572
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: grow from that. And speaking of growth, I thought we

573
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,679
Speaker 1: saw a lot from your quarterback to Shaun Watson in

574
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 1: this second game. What did you see when you put

575
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,400
Speaker 1: on the tape. It's kind of what we talked about

576
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 1: coming out of the first game. You had to get

577
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,440
Speaker 1: the first game out of the way, get the all

578
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,119
Speaker 1: the things that go with the first game out of

579
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,440
Speaker 1: the way. Uh So I thought it was a step

580
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 1: forward Ford Shaun. I thought offensively it was a step

581
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 1: forward and some of the things we're trying to do.

582
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 1: Uh it's not perfect, and we still need to be better.

583
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: We need to score more points as an offense, that's obvious.

584
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 1: But I do think that he's after the you know,

585
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 1: long time off I do think you saw glimpses of

586
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: of him playing at a really, really high level. Yeah,

587
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 1: the ball to DPJ Wright and stride was an absolute beauty.

588
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,200
Speaker 1: To have a screen busted up and turn it into

589
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:44,680
Speaker 1: a chunk play incredible. So it's certainly some positive things.

590
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 1: They're not as positive the ground game, and it feels

591
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 1: like as the season has kind of worn on, there

592
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:54,159
Speaker 1: have been certain games where dominant interior players have disrupted

593
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 1: a lot of what we did. DJ Reader, we talked

594
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 1: about him going in this one had a heck of

595
00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,159
Speaker 1: a ball game. How do we kind of get that

596
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 1: going again? Yeah, we have to, you know, we want

597
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: to run the ball better in some of those situations. Uh,

598
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 1: And you know, I wish there was one answer for

599
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: for that, but sometimes it's it's we gotta do a

600
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 1: little bit better job and schemes sometimes just one guy

601
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: falls off his block and then the guy makes a play.

602
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:17,199
Speaker 1: So I think the first thing you gotta do is

603
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,160
Speaker 1: give them credit that they did a good job. That's

604
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 1: historically a team that we've had success running the football

605
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,199
Speaker 1: versus their scheme versus those players, and we didn't uh

606
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:26,879
Speaker 1: the other day and need to look at that in

607
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 1: ways that we can be better moving forward. One bright

608
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,840
Speaker 1: spot though, Donovan People's Jones career high and catches career

609
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,879
Speaker 1: high in yards. He's he's within reach of a thousand

610
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 1: yards season, which is a pretty incredible rise over his

611
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,600
Speaker 1: three years here. Feels like he's got a great chemistry

612
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 1: with the Shawn as well. What did you see from that? Yeah,

613
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 1: I think as as we've all seen Donovan over the

614
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 1: course of his career, he's a very very dependable player.

615
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 1: And I say that meaning quarterbacks like throwing to him

616
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 1: because they know where he's going to be. They know

617
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: that he has a contested ball skill set, so it's

618
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 1: it's he's a very comforting guy to throw to whenning.

619
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 1: You know he's gonna be at his depth, you know

620
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 1: he's gonna make a play for you. So I think

621
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 1: that's what you're seeing with Deshaun start to emerge. They've

622
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 1: had a lot of reps together on the practice field

623
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 1: and then starting to get these in these starting to

624
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 1: get reps in these games, I think will only help

625
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 1: both those guys moving forward. Yeah, we're gonna need that

626
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 1: and hopefully Amory can get healthy get this offense going.

627
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a tough task against this defense. Since

628
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 1: they've acquired Roquan Smith, second in the league in points

629
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 1: per game, second in the league against the rush. They

630
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 1: having a lot of one yard rusher. Uh, They're pretty

631
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 1: dynamic at linebacker. They have, in my opinion, one of

632
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 1: the best center field free safeties in the league. And

633
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 1: Marcus Williams he's back. He wasn't in that first meeting.

634
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 1: What have you seen? How is this defense evolved since

635
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,400
Speaker 1: we went to Baltimore? Yeah, I think they've evolved in

636
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 1: number one and getting back some players, uh off of injury,

637
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: so Bowser up front, their outside linebacker, defensive end, kind

638
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 1: of a do everything player for them. You add Roquan

639
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 1: Smith like you mentioned in a trade, you get Marcus

640
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 1: Williams back from injury. So they really added guys at

641
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 1: each level of the defense. I think are playing at

642
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 1: a high level. I think they're evolving under a first

643
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 1: year coordinator as well, so I think you see them

644
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 1: doing some different things as this season wears on. So

645
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 1: it is a great challenge. It is at our place,

646
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 1: you know, where we can play in front of our

647
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 1: home crowd and and play our style of football, which

648
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 1: we know in this weather could be interesting as well

649
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 1: as it gets colder and those type of things down

650
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 1: there in the lake, So we'll have a great opportunity

651
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 1: versus a really really formidable film. Yeah, and kind of

652
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 1: a unique thing right now at least, and I'm sure

653
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:30,959
Speaker 1: they'll bring somebody off the practice club, but right now,

654
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 1: this is a unique team that has five running backs

655
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 1: if I count Ricard as a running back and only

656
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 1: four receivers on the active roster. They're gonna run it.

657
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: They got JK. Dobbins back last week's season high undred

658
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 1: and twenty yards. They've got Gus Edwards at two thirty,

659
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 1: They've got Drake, They've got Justice Hill, and then they

660
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,440
Speaker 1: have a quarterback whether it's Huntly or whether it's Brown,

661
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 1: that can also run the ball. How do you come

662
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 1: out and try to stop a team that really is content?

663
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 1: I mean last week seventeen pass attempt they're content to

664
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 1: run it and play defense. Yeah, it's it's a great,

665
00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 1: great challenge, and I think when you play Baltimore number one,

666
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 1: it's it's a unique one. In their schemes, They're they're

667
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 1: gonna pull guards, they're gonna read defensive ends, they're gonna

668
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,880
Speaker 1: be in multiple personnel groupings, they're gonna have pre snap motions.

669
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 1: So you really really got it, number one, get aligned

670
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 1: versus this defense, and then you gotta read your keys

671
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 1: and do your job because it and that's when you

672
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,440
Speaker 1: if you have any success versus this offense, that's what

673
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 1: you're doing. You're playing sound football, you're tackling well. So

674
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 1: it's a great challenge. You mentioned the players that they have, Uh,

675
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 1: all their quarterbacks can run. They all can get on

676
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 1: the perimeter. Big powerful running backs that have some speed

677
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 1: and a great tight end. So there's different ways that

678
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 1: they can do it. I think for us it comes

679
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,760
Speaker 1: down to you get there on Saturday. You see what

680
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 1: they're early plan is that different personnel groupings that they're using.

681
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 1: But ultimately we gotta get lined up and do our job.

682
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 1: And they stress the linebacking corps and we are going

683
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 1: to have a very different linebacking corp than we had

684
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 1: last time. You know, we know walkers out, we know

685
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 1: tackies out, we know Phillips out. Now, Jeremiah was Cormo.

686
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 1: I thought at one of his better games against the

687
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 1: Ravens last time, he is out. Reggie Raglan just got here.

688
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 1: Carnastics basically played special teams in the majority or although

689
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 1: he's gotten some reps at linebacker. Tony played a little

690
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 1: bit more recently than you got the veteran Dion Jones.

691
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 1: How do you kind of put that group together? And

692
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 1: I know there are no excuses, it's next man up,

693
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 1: but against a team that's really designed in many ways

694
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,320
Speaker 1: to stress that second level. Yeah, I mean, well, listen,

695
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:21,320
Speaker 1: it is all hands on deck when when you get

696
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: to this point in the season, we have a ton

697
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,120
Speaker 1: of faith and all the guys you just mentioned, they've

698
00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 1: been here, they know our system, they know our schemes.

699
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 1: So again, it does go back to just executing, doing

700
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,920
Speaker 1: your job, being where you're supposed to be. Uh, And

701
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,080
Speaker 1: then guys have to step up. And it's not just

702
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 1: the lineback and corps that that has a chance to

703
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 1: slow down this potent offense. You really have to be

704
00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 1: great at defenseive line. You've gotta be great in the

705
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 1: secondary as well. So you have great I thought Miles

706
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 1: and Clowney were phenomenal last week, both of them getting

707
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 1: around the quarterback. Clownie should have had a sack, Miles

708
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 1: gets to Clowny gets the tip that leads to the pick.

709
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 1: When those guys are humming like that, how does that

710
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: benefit your defense? And unfortunately, you'd love to go against

711
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 1: a straight dropback team. Know all the time and let

712
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:02,719
Speaker 1: them go back. This is different this week, but when

713
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 1: they play at that level, what does that mean for

714
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 1: the team. Yeah, we always say listen, it starts up front.

715
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 1: It really does. So with our defensive line, the way

716
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 1: they're able to affect the passer, I think is key

717
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 1: to our success. And teams versus us try to get

718
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 1: the ball out very very quickly. Because of Miles Uh,

719
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,960
Speaker 1: they obviously send extra protection his way, but the ball

720
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 1: is coming out, so that informs us. It allows us

721
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 1: to get our hands up. JD got his hands up

722
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 1: with a great tip ball in that game. You'll see

723
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 1: other times in that game where they're guys and the

724
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 1: balls coming out and he's trying those All those players

725
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 1: along in front are trying to get their hands up.

726
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 1: So understand that the ball is coming out. Really does

727
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 1: allow us to play closer in coverage UH and try

728
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 1: to defend these passes as Perry on Wooden free kind

729
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 1: of unlock something. It feels like the last two weeks

730
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 1: two weeks ago, six tackles season high. Last week should

731
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:48,880
Speaker 1: have had a sack that was that was wiped out there.

732
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 1: But it feels like he's becoming more of an impact player. Yeah.

733
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,280
Speaker 1: I think what you're seeing is he's playing really hard.

734
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,520
Speaker 1: He's really giving you great effort in whatever number of

735
00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 1: plays he's playing. I think that's that's half the battle.

736
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,360
Speaker 1: When you're talking about interior rush and interior you know,

737
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 1: versus to run. If you are giving great effort, if

738
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 1: you're coming off the ball, you're exploding, you're running football.

739
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 1: I think you're gonna make place. Coach, I know that

740
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:12,120
Speaker 1: it is. We're not where we want to be, but

741
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,600
Speaker 1: still an opportunity at home against a division rival, and

742
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 1: you never know. You run the table here, you'll see

743
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 1: what happens. But best of luck on Saturday. And thanks

744
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,000
Speaker 1: so much for the time. Thanks Nathan. All Right, we'll

745
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:22,919
Speaker 1: back with more of the Kevin Sefanski Show, all along

746
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:27,600
Speaker 1: the University Hospitals Cleveland Brown's Radio Network. This is Brown's cornerback,

747
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 1: Denzel Award. This is Brown's wide receiver, Donovan people Jones.

748
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 1: This is Joel Mattonio, and you're listening to the University

749
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 1: Hospitals Cleveland Browns Radio Network. University Hospitals is your hometown

750
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 1: medical team, an official healthcare provider of the Cleveland Browns.

751
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Kevin Sefanci show all along the

752
00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:45,840
Speaker 1: University Hospitals Cleveland, Brown's radio network, joined now by Brown's

753
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,719
Speaker 1: defensive Engine, Devan Clowney and Devin. We didn't get the

754
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,759
Speaker 1: result we wanted obviously in Cincinnati, but a lot of

755
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 1: pauses in that game, certainly on the defensive side. When

756
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 1: you guys put that tape on against a very good offense,

757
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 1: would you see we have to play with a few quarters,

758
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 1: But like I says, for it's four quarters, you gotta

759
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,839
Speaker 1: play and it's a compromary. Football just can't be just

760
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,320
Speaker 1: one side playing. That's how I got to be special.

761
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,120
Speaker 1: Chains offense, defense, everything need to be clinking on the

762
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:11,799
Speaker 1: same page for you to come out with win. It's

763
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,960
Speaker 1: National Football League. Both teams was great, and both guys

764
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:16,879
Speaker 1: teams was playing well on defense at the time day,

765
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 1: and I'm making more played on offense than we did.

766
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 1: You had six pressures, you made a play on defense,

767
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:22,879
Speaker 1: got your hands up, got a tip, you knew they're

768
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:24,839
Speaker 1: trying to get it out quickly. And Dion Jones gets

769
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:26,480
Speaker 1: see interception. Give you all the credit by the way

770
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 1: on that play as he should quite frankly, he caught

771
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 1: the ball though, h what is it about going against them,

772
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 1: that you and Miles are able to have so much success.

773
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 1: I just think it's the division, you know, you take

774
00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 1: pride in that and and com competing. Uh, Joe Burrow,

775
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:42,319
Speaker 1: they went to the super Bowl last year. I just

776
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 1: got here, and I'm not only lying upbody. I just

777
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,359
Speaker 1: think they've been there, so they went somewhere. I want

778
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 1: to get in and we go ahead, Gonna light them

779
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 1: up and get out of their quarterback and you know,

780
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,280
Speaker 1: trying to help my team win and try to make plays.

781
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 1: That's all I'll be thinking about what I'm out there.

782
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 1: There's a fun when you and Miles are both kind

783
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:57,000
Speaker 1: of cooking like that. And I know you had a

784
00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,080
Speaker 1: sack in that game wiped away erroneously, but you so

785
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:01,640
Speaker 1: we're doing it felt like a lot more kind of

786
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,800
Speaker 1: twists and since where Miles was kind of the pusher

787
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:05,880
Speaker 1: and you'd come around him and that seemed to work. Well,

788
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,319
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, kind of. It was kind of was kind

789
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:11,200
Speaker 1: of working like that, but uh yeah, it was getting

790
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 1: pressure on the quarterback a lot. Uh that's what you're

791
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 1: excided your defensive end and d line up front in general,

792
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,319
Speaker 1: Like it ain't just us up for you got uh

793
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,960
Speaker 1: Tavin and Joe Jordan Elliot who's playing I think, having

794
00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:24,080
Speaker 1: a great season, who had a couple of good rushes

795
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 1: in their game also, So hats off to them, guys,

796
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:28,000
Speaker 1: and this total effort when it comes out of us

797
00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:30,319
Speaker 1: rushing out front. Do you like doing those loops? And

798
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:31,839
Speaker 1: when you came around on the one where you did

799
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:33,840
Speaker 1: get him, he just so he saw him. He was

800
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 1: just like, uh, I love it. Uh yeah, it held

801
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:38,919
Speaker 1: the team held the defense. And guys can't just chip

802
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 1: us all the time. And I don't know where we're

803
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 1: coming from. I don't know if we're running off the

804
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 1: edge of coming to inside. So you gotta keep that

805
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:45,920
Speaker 1: up and then making a part of us and just

806
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,200
Speaker 1: not no game plan stuff, just what we gotta field up.

807
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:49,960
Speaker 1: And I think it helped us later on and the

808
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,360
Speaker 1: rest of the season. You mentioned complimentary football, and it

809
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:54,040
Speaker 1: feels like this year it's been a lot of little

810
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 1: things in each game that have become big things for

811
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 1: this football team. How do you clean that up? Small things?

812
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 1: Knowing us small things all that they said all the time,

813
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:04,480
Speaker 1: it's about doing a small things and lead us finish

814
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,279
Speaker 1: the game, finishing doing everything, just doing a little things.

815
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,239
Speaker 1: So we can just try to get get fixing moner

816
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,839
Speaker 1: mistakes in the game, if it's a penalty or it's

817
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:13,799
Speaker 1: giving up a bust of coverage and something just like

818
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,080
Speaker 1: doing a small stuff. Hopefully we can fix that in

819
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 1: these next few games and see what happened. You got

820
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 1: a chance this Saturday against the Baltimore Ravens. By the way,

821
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:23,360
Speaker 1: what do you think of the Saturday is that? Is

822
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 1: it hard? Is we're I don't like playing on Saturday.

823
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,080
Speaker 1: So it's like a college game, and I feel like

824
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 1: in the national football game just because you know, we

825
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:33,800
Speaker 1: always playing on Sunday or third still month, but you

826
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:35,440
Speaker 1: still gotta get up for it just like any other

827
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:39,759
Speaker 1: game as another big rival game and division game. So

828
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 1: playing against somebody who's really had our number here and

829
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 1: we just really got to come out and play our

830
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,840
Speaker 1: style of football, be physical and play full quarters and

831
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 1: hopefully get to win. In a way. It's kind of

832
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 1: like college where you're having a system that comes to

833
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,879
Speaker 1: town that you see twice a year. In our case,

834
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 1: you don't see it all the time in terms of

835
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:58,239
Speaker 1: what they do. And it won't be Lamar. We don't

836
00:37:58,239 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 1: know if it'll be hunting or if it'll be brown.

837
00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 1: But they are gonna run the ball. They're gonna bring

838
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,440
Speaker 1: Ricard running around at you with a head start as

839
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 1: the blocker and do a lot of that read option

840
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 1: game for sure. Man, they got a crazy package where

841
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,360
Speaker 1: they just go a bunch of different person there, a

842
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:15,680
Speaker 1: bunch of person in roofs and uh, just run a

843
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:17,879
Speaker 1: bunch of everything that's with the style of football every where.

844
00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: They got a lot of guys, a lot of smoking,

845
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:23,440
Speaker 1: miracle pullers and jet emotions and everything going on. So

846
00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,439
Speaker 1: you just gotta be heavy eyes in the right spot

847
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 1: and you do your job and reading your keys and

848
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 1: everybody to get to the ball and not just one

849
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,680
Speaker 1: man to go take all the living ups because we

850
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 1: don't know where the ball actually gonna hit. We just

851
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 1: gotta be doing our job. What's it like when you

852
00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:37,280
Speaker 1: have to deal with Patrick or Carter is a former

853
00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,000
Speaker 1: defensive lineman throwner pattern and they give him oftentimes a

854
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:44,279
Speaker 1: running start at you on the edge there, Uh, hit

855
00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:47,319
Speaker 1: him in the mouth. That's what I'm thinking. And I

856
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:49,480
Speaker 1: look forward to it and I'll try to tell them

857
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 1: all game stuff and let's get it. Let's have a

858
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:54,840
Speaker 1: good game. And yeah, we had to be physical, and

859
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:56,520
Speaker 1: that's what they know I'm bringing to the table one

860
00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,040
Speaker 1: on my desk. So yeah, I'm bringing my physical game.

861
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 1: And let's see, are gonna paying out at the end. Well,

862
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 1: you're one of the best run defenders at your position

863
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:05,840
Speaker 1: and have been throughout the entirety of your career. And

864
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 1: obviously that's something you just talked about. Being physical. That's

865
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 1: a pride thing, that's a want to thing. Why has

866
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:11,400
Speaker 1: that always been so important to you you and why you've

867
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: been so good at it? Like I said, like you said,

868
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 1: I take pride and I grew up. Man, I grew

869
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,480
Speaker 1: up like that. Every where I grew up. That's all

870
00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 1: they talked about. Man, physical, going out there, hitting people

871
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 1: in the mouth. And Uh, always so pride in that.

872
00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 1: H You know, That's just why I played. That's why

873
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 1: I see the game. Always seen it that way. I

874
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 1: always want to be physical, don't want to get bullied

875
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:33,040
Speaker 1: by nobody. I just take pride in that. Well, you

876
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:34,799
Speaker 1: mentioned college earlier. You have one of the all time

877
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:37,160
Speaker 1: highlights in the history of college football where you certainly

878
00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:38,759
Speaker 1: we're not being bullied on that player you were doing

879
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:40,399
Speaker 1: the bullying. Is that one of those things you look

880
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,320
Speaker 1: back at that now with all these years that have

881
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 1: passed you so like that was legit. Yeah, I think

882
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:46,359
Speaker 1: about it sometimes. People bring it up to me all

883
00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:48,399
Speaker 1: the time. It seemed like it never dies. But it's

884
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:50,719
Speaker 1: so crazy, it's been like nine years since they happened.

885
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:52,879
Speaker 1: But yeah, I was just like trying to a play

886
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:55,520
Speaker 1: for my team and knowing that we just got a

887
00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:58,239
Speaker 1: crazy play that stopped though that should have been turned over.

888
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:00,680
Speaker 1: But you just say a coach, conn never gonna another player.

889
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 1: You always got in your head going out there, whatever

890
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 1: you can do for your team, maker play and I

891
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:05,960
Speaker 1: just try to make it till on that time it happened.

892
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:08,399
Speaker 1: And you made plays this year directly responsible for two

893
00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 1: turnovers to take away so far this season for the Browns,

894
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:12,879
Speaker 1: and you got to get those against the Baltore Ravens.

895
00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:15,399
Speaker 1: Their team that takes it away defensively doesn't really turn

896
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 1: it over offensively. How can you guys kind of make

897
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,200
Speaker 1: those game change in place? All I said, it's gonna

898
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,920
Speaker 1: it's getting our hands up on some balls, tip balls

899
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,759
Speaker 1: and everybody ripping at the ball and getting them guys

900
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 1: to the ball and hopefully they can throw us a

901
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:30,440
Speaker 1: few and pressure up the middle and uh what our

902
00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:32,319
Speaker 1: guys up front. We got to do our job and

903
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,799
Speaker 1: come to play. He feels good, like I said, and

904
00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:36,920
Speaker 1: get after that football. We know what it takes. We're

905
00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:38,920
Speaker 1: gonna need turnals to beat this team and we know that.

906
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:42,200
Speaker 1: And it's gonna be cold. Do you like that or

907
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:44,840
Speaker 1: not so much? They's gonna hurt me. I'm playing defense,

908
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 1: so we gotta get after the ball. Carry who are

909
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 1: running the ball in the colde That's what I'm thinking.

910
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 1: And receive a punch at the ball this week and

911
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:51,840

930
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:42,840
Speaker 1: in the building that can tell me the truth, and

931
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 1: I think that's really important because I don't want this

932
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: to be a place where I don't get the truth

933
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:49,399
Speaker 1: from our guys. This is the Coach Kevin Stefanski Show.

934
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:53,840
Speaker 1: You're listening to the University Hospitals Cleveland Browns Radio Network.

935
00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:58,560

942
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:18,400
Speaker 1: four Ravens winners of six of the last seven against

943
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,680
Speaker 1: the five and eight Brown's. Browns looking to beat them

944
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,279
Speaker 1: in December at First Energy Stadium as they did a

945
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,919
Speaker 1: year ago, and ironically enough, Tyler Huntley back that time,

946
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:30,040
Speaker 1: he will be the quarterback this time. The Browns absolutely

947
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:32,200
Speaker 1: need to stop the run in their keys to victory.

948
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:36,480
Speaker 1: Stop the run, Dobbins Edwards Huntly forced them into passing situations.

949
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 1: Do what you did last time, which was blanket Mark

950
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,600
Speaker 1: Andrews forced him to throw the ball to the receivers

951
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:44,239
Speaker 1: who have not caught a touchdown in ten games. And

952
00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:46,640
Speaker 1: then you've got to win the turnover battle, or at

953
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: least be neutral in it. You cannot lose the turnover battle.

954
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,879
Speaker 1: That's something that the Baltimore Ravens do so well this

955
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:56,760
Speaker 1: year is take the football away and not give it away.

956
00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 1: They are second in the NFL in turnover differential plus

957
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:02,880
Speaker 1: nine line on the year in only thirteen games, so

958
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:05,480
Speaker 1: they average taken one away more than their opponent just

959
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:07,839
Speaker 1: about two out of every three times or three out

960
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:10,759
Speaker 1: of every four times they are out there. That's what

961
00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:12,360
Speaker 1: you gotta do. It's gonna be tough to run to

962
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,399
Speaker 1: the number one run defense in the league of late

963
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 1: but Deshaun Watson, a Mari Cooper Downovan People's Jones, David

964
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:19,440
Speaker 1: and Joeku have got to be able to take advantage

965
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:23,200
Speaker 1: through the air. Remember the game is on Saturday at

966
