1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:00,600 Speaker 1: For today. 2 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,080 Speaker 2: You got Aaron Banks for the shoulder, he'll be limited, 3 00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:06,240 Speaker 2: Elijah Mitchell nee will not practice, and Trent and George 4 00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:07,160 Speaker 2: have vet days. 5 00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:08,480 Speaker 1: Go ahead. 6 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 3: Probably when you check out the Brown defense, obviously Miles 7 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:17,759 Speaker 3: Garrett stands out, So I mean you faced TJ. 8 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 4: Why face Michael Parsons some of the best. What stands 9 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 4: out about Miles Garrett's camp. 10 00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 2: Just to mean he's one of the most talented guys 11 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,400 Speaker 2: I think anyone's seen. And the style they play on 12 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 2: defense is very similar to ours. They rush the pastor 13 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,639 Speaker 2: every play and then react to everything else. Him combined 14 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 2: with Schwartz scheme and the guys around him, it's it's 15 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 2: a problem. 16 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 1: It's obvious why they're a top defense right now. 17 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 4: Expect Randy Gregory to play. 18 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:43,560 Speaker 2: We'll see how he is today, say it will be 19 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 2: the first day we see him on the field, and 20 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 2: we'll decide that over the next three practices, not today. 21 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 2: He spoke to some people who spoke very highly about him, 22 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 2: which with Dan Quinn one of those guys. 23 00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,959 Speaker 4: Or did you talk to Dan you know after the game? 24 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 2: No, it wasn't right time to talk to him, But 25 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 2: I'm sure we will lay this week on it, but guys 26 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 2: close to him and guys that I know vouch for him, 27 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 2: So feel good. 28 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,479 Speaker 5: How's Cleveland look on the back end with Denzel Award 29 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 5: and news of some of the guys. 30 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 4: They have back there. 31 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:16,320 Speaker 1: Very good. 32 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 2: I mean, when you have the D line, they have 33 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 2: the downhill linebackers, you better have some good corners, and 34 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 2: they have very good ones. They play a lot of 35 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 2: Mando man coverage, so mixing some zone. But when you 36 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 2: play that much Mando Man and you're also the number 37 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 2: one past defense in the league, you gotta have some 38 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 2: good corners. 39 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 3: What do you remember about your year there? 40 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 2: I really liked living out there. Some good people and 41 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,839 Speaker 2: it was cold. My car was always dirty because snow 42 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 2: was on the ground. A lot never melted, it seemed like. 43 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,919 Speaker 2: But I really enjoyed the stadium. I enjoyed the people 44 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 2: and it was It's just it was just one year, 45 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:55,279 Speaker 2: though it wasn't very low. 46 00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 6: Tu next Gen stats had said rock perty is four 47 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 6: touchdowns on coming outside the tackle box. First time that's 48 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 6: happened and in the next gen era that think since 49 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 6: twenty sixteen? Help me, what does that mean? What's to 50 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 6: be made at that? 51 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. 52 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 2: I didn't think of that in the game. It didn't 53 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 2: seem like they weren't all boot legs and stuff like that. 54 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 2: I guess, you know the tackle box one. I know, 55 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,239 Speaker 2: the first one in Georgie stepped up and moved a 56 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 2: little to the right and hit him going there. So 57 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 2: but there's a lot of weird stats that I don't 58 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 2: know about that people have these days. But when you're 59 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 2: the first one to do it, it must be something 60 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 2: pretty good. 61 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 6: If the four touchdown plays had happened just as they 62 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 6: were drawn up, how many of those would have been 63 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 6: outside the tackle box? 64 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: I think all four of those. I'm trying to think. 65 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 2: Watched a lot of films since Sunday, so I'm trying 66 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 2: to think what all four were. I mean the two 67 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 2: to Kittle one one was a flea flicker that was 68 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 2: just like it was. The other one was like it 69 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,679 Speaker 2: was what other one to Kittle score on the goal line. 70 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 2: One to Juice was intended for him. It's just all 71 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 2: out pressure, so you got to run outside of there. 72 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 2: At the fleet flicker, you had to drift away from 73 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 2: pressure killer, you had to buy time. 74 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 1: And what was the fourth one? 75 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 4: Action left little? 76 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, they were they were all number one. Yeah, all 77 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: four of. 78 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 4: Them come back after uh after every game, and all 79 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 4: of them pretty convincing and pretty impressive, and still has 80 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 4: had plenty of stuff that you gotta work on, plenty 81 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 4: of stuff get better. How about this game? 82 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 2: I mean, this game is to me the biggest challenge 83 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 2: we've had so far. I mean thought that was gonna 84 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 2: be Dallas too going into it, But then you look 85 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 2: at this and you, you know, the defensive numbers just 86 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 2: jump out. You don't see very much that they're number 87 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 2: one or two and everything. Red zone is the only 88 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 2: thing they're not. But that's only because I think they've 89 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 2: had to eat plays there all year and Baltimore ran 90 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 2: it in so that didn't help their rankings there. But 91 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 2: everything else is top notch. We're doing that to on 92 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 2: offensively right now, so it should be all of a battle. 93 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 2: When you look at a defense like that, a team 94 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 2: who's committed a running the ball like they are, I mean, 95 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 2: that's like the prime best way to get into the playoffs. 96 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 2: And that's why I expect this team to be there 97 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:11,839 Speaker 2: throughout this year. 98 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 4: In terms of Dallas. When you look back at that game, 99 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,799 Speaker 4: there are coaching points to be made because it seems 100 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 4: so impressive from the outside and even afterwards to think 101 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 4: you thought it was your best game of the season. 102 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 2: It was. I mean, there's lots of coaching points. We 103 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 2: gave the guys Monday off, so we started a day 104 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,479 Speaker 2: with that. We gave the coaches an hour to go 105 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 2: through that game, and that's why we're an hour behind 106 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 2: right now. But once we finished, I forgot about Dallas 107 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 2: U till I got in here and our guys are 108 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 2: ready for Cleveland. 109 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 3: George, how long was he here before you realize you 110 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 3: potentially had something pretty special in that position. 111 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 1: We were pretty excited in training camp. 112 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 2: I mean you go back to like our I still 113 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 2: remember openers versus Carolina. I think our first play we 114 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 2: threw him a LOOKI for like thirty yards or twenty yards, 115 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 2: and we were real excited about him in camp thought 116 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 2: had chanced to be a real good tight end and 117 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,839 Speaker 2: battled some injuries, but fought through it all and we 118 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 2: didn't know how especially be, but we knew we got 119 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 2: to steal right away. And then I think his second 120 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 2: year is when he broke all those records. But it's 121 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 2: funny you go back and watch this film from the 122 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 2: first year and had no ponytails, socks were pulled up perfect, 123 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 2: no wristbands. It was now you watch them Nowaday's w 124 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 2: W rockstar, So it's been fun to be with him 125 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 2: this whole time. You think it was undershirt, not much 126 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 2: just kiddle w W stuff, entertainment, not really much to. 127 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: Smile at it. 128 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 5: You had to play in this first half where it 129 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 5: looked like you guys did some something that dolphins do 130 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 5: where you kind of that sprint motion right before the 131 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 5: snap and then pretty threw a slant Ti Yuk and 132 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 5: there was no defender within like five yards ago. Is 133 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 5: that something that little wrinkle does that create the space 134 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,359 Speaker 5: and is that something that you introduced to McDaniel. McDaniel 135 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 5: showed it and you're copying it. What's now? 136 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 2: The first time we saw the quick cheap motion was 137 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 2: Miami Week one, But that's what all That's what everyone 138 00:05:58,320 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 2: motions for. 139 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: Whether it's a quick one or went across. 140 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 2: It's everyone's been playing coverages for a long time, and 141 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 2: when you move people a lot of ways, you still 142 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 2: play the same coverages. But it's sometimes it's eye candy 143 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 2: and you just got to make people think adjust a 144 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 2: hair and sometimes they adjust too much. And you can 145 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 2: create a little bit of space. But that's what one 146 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 2: of the main reasons you do motions. But sometimes you 147 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,479 Speaker 2: can put people on the wrong spot and mess a 148 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 2: play up too, So there's a very fine line with 149 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 2: it all. 150 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 3: Over the offseason, I think it was at the Dwight 151 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,919 Speaker 3: Clark event you spoke about Christian and how he is 152 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,919 Speaker 3: like a gravitational force for defense is almost like Steph Curry. 153 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 3: Over time, has he created more room, has the impact 154 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 3: on opposing defense has changed as he's become more involved 155 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 3: with their offense here over the past year. 156 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 2: I think it's about the same. I mean, he started 157 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 2: doing it last year and he's done the same this year. 158 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 2: I mean I feel like he was similar when he 159 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 2: was at Carolina. Whenever you have a back who's a 160 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 2: threat in the past game like he is, it's just 161 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 2: and a tight end. I mean, those guys are guarded 162 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 2: by linebackers and safeties, and it's tough to put a 163 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 2: safety on both of them, So usually get linebackers and stuff. 164 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,359 Speaker 2: And when you have guys who are built to stop 165 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 2: the run but have to stop a running back who's 166 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 2: like a receiver, they usually need help. And so when 167 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 2: they're in position to get beat, they get help, and 168 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 2: that still doesn't always work, but it definitely gives all 169 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 2: the other guys no help, which helps other four. 170 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 4: Eligibles responsibility pretty early on when you got here. 171 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 3: How have you seen him all over the years? 172 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 2: Fred? 173 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: I mean, Fred has been unbelievable. 174 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 2: He came in. 175 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: And we got a lot un just played his rookie year. 176 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 2: It's been the quarterback of our building really since halfway 177 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 2: through his rookie year and his second year he owned it. 178 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 2: I think his second year was the year we became 179 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 2: a real dominant defense from the super Bowl that year 180 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 2: and each year that I think we rewarded him after 181 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 2: that year, but each year he's only gotten better. 182 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: I mean, he's doesn't change. 183 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 2: He's out here every day throughout the year and very 184 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 2: thankful to have Fred. Have been remarkably injury free, I 185 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 2: assume you know. I mean we can meet for like 186 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 2: three days and go over what we've done throughout seven years, 187 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 2: cause we're always working on that stuff. Any injury that happens, 188 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 2: we look into it and always bounce reps out and stuff. 189 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 2: But not much has changed over the last four years. 190 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 2: I mean subtle things, but not really. 191 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 4: Or first, had a pretty bad luck here with injuries, 192 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 4: short period of time. He's in the rotation now at Cleveland. 193 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 4: And did you formulate any opinions of him as a 194 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 4: person as a player when he was here. 195 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, we loved mo you know, we thought he was 196 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 2: a really good player, just had some bad luck to 197 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:43,439 Speaker 2: two years in a row with us, had some bad 198 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 2: luck in in Oakland. 199 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: I think he was when he was there, but yeah, 200 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: he was great. 201 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 2: We loved moing. I wish you could have worked out 202 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 2: for him here, but very happy for him right now. 203 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 5: Still in any way an issue, is there anything that 204 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 5: you're doing? 205 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 2: This is what the beginning? Oh what's good to me? Yeah, 206 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 2: there's no issues. That was a neat thing about that 207 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 2: injury that there's lots of questions until he started throwing, 208 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 2: which was three or four months. But all the information 209 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 2: on that injury is once he passed that area, as 210 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 2: long as you brought him back at the right speed 211 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,439 Speaker 2: most quarterbacks, once it heals. 212 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:20,959 Speaker 1: At heels surrounding Deshawn's health and whether or not he's 213 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 1: playing on Sunday, do you have to have two game plans? 214 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 4: Obviously there are a much different team if he's able 215 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 4: to play. 216 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 2: No, we gotta be ready for all of them. We 217 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 2: know they like to run the ball, we know their 218 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 2: quarterbacks can make plays. And we'll be ready for all 219 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 2: three though. 220 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: All right, thanks Scott,
