1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:18,000
Speaker 1: M coming to you live from the Cross Country Mortgage

2
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 1: Campus in Burree, Ohio. Peace is Cleveland Browns Daily on

3
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 1: ESPN Cleveland. Here are your hosts, Bo Bishop and Nathan Zigura. Alright,

4
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,319
Speaker 1: let's do it live on a Tuesday at this ship

5
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:49,880
Speaker 1: mandatory minicamp underway here in Burria. Merlebo the Great Zu

6
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 1: coming right off the heels of Deshaun Watson's extended conversation

7
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 1: there with the media, first time that he's spoken obviously

8
00:00:55,880 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: publicly since his UM his initial introductory press conference here UM.

9
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 1: This one was very similar to that one. I know

10
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 1: that it is the job of UM. I understand that

11
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 1: it's the job of reporters to ask questions. I think

12
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 1: it's important for to Shawn to answer those questions the

13
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,839
Speaker 1: best that he can. But I think in this current

14
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 1: situation with UM, with litigation pending, I don't there's not

15
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: much he can say. And so that's what you got

16
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: today was a lot of him. He him believing in

17
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 1: himself and his side of this story over and over again,

18
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 1: just continuing to to to take that tone, and I

19
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 1: that you can ask the question a thousand different ways,

20
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: but that doesn't change from his perspective. And there's not

21
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: going to be an end to this, not when there's there.

22
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: There won't be an end. Whenever we get whatever the

23
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: penalty is going to get from the NFL, it won't

24
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: end there. It only won't end until the very last

25
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 1: one of these is litigated. If that's the way that

26
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 1: it's going to go, the only way that it could

27
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: ever uh, the only thing that would stop any of

28
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 1: it would be settlements. These are civil cases, civil cases.

29
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 1: You're looking for financial penalty, So that is the only

30
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 1: way that this stops. And until that happens, whether in

31
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: a court of law or settling the cases, this is

32
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: what it's going to be is every press available ability

33
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,639
Speaker 1: he has between now and as long as you remember

34
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: that the the Cleveland Browns going to be about this until

35
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: all of this is is put behind him or all

36
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,919
Speaker 1: of the ribbons put on all of these boxes. Probably

37
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: it's probably what a lot of this is gonna be like. Yeah,

38
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 1: and it's unfortunate. I think that the NFL. I do

39
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 1: think once the NFL hands down its punishment, it's going

40
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 1: to take some of the scrutiny off of this, because

41
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: then it will feel like there has been a ruling

42
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: has been made they've done their investigation. This is what

43
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,519
Speaker 1: they have concluded, and it's being done by the and

44
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 1: the judge who's kind of overseeing this process. It's not

45
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: the NFL actually handing down the process. That's one of

46
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: the ways that, uh, this has changed in the new

47
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: CB A. Yeah, he can't comment on these things. I

48
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 1: think that you know, what we want to talk about

49
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 1: is obviously he's taken all the first team reps. He's

50
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 1: a quarterback of the Cleveland Browns. I can tell you

51
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,119
Speaker 1: what the guys think of him. I can tell you

52
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: you see when you see him play on the field,

53
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: and that's elite quarterback play. Our defense continues to impress

54
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: me as well. But you're not going to get a

55
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 1: whole lot out of these especially if they're going over

56
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 1: the same topics that can't really be talked about. So

57
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 1: at some point it needs to be you know, a

58
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 1: situation where you are aware of what happened. Well, I

59
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 1: think it's been well documented at this jump. You are

60
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,919
Speaker 1: aware that there will be a decision made by the

61
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 1: NFL and then the civil stuffs. I mean, this stuff

62
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 1: is going into twenty two, this is going four at

63
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: the earliest, So there isn't gonna be a swift revolution

64
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: resolution on that side. The only thing that you're waiting

65
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: for right now is a resolution from the NFL. From

66
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: a criminal standpoint, all the resolutions have been handed down.

67
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: No indictment from a civil standpoint is going to go

68
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: on for a very very long time. And the court

69
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: of public opinion is something that you know, always rages on.

70
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: And I think that once you get through some of

71
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: this stuff and find out what the punchment league, that'll

72
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: at least I would hope, calm that down to some degree. Yeah,

73
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: I think as long as it will as long as

74
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: there I mean this, you know him talking today after

75
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: two more of these were filed yesterday by the same attorney,

76
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: So you're twenty five and twenty six now. So as

77
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: long as there's those developments out there, it will continue

78
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: to be a hot button topic going forward. That's just

79
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 1: not much he can say on it. He's in the

80
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: middle of it, so there's not much he can say

81
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 1: on it. And if you are, I think, I think

82
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,039
Speaker 1: sometimes and I don't want to say that, we always

83
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 1: have to be careful with this topic. It's a tough one, obviously,

84
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: but it reminds me a little bit of the the

85
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 1: what what we have going on with this live to

86
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 1: our thing where it's almost like people want the golfers

87
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 1: to say we did this for the money. Yep, that's

88
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,720
Speaker 1: what they want. Well de Shambo did. He said, it's

89
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 1: a business decision. Like it's almost like they keep asking

90
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 1: the question. You keep asking the questions, and I get it,

91
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 1: but it's almost like you're looking for a different answer.

92
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: This was this pressor was the same as the pressor

93
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,599
Speaker 1: he had here, the introductory one. It's the same one.

94
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: Like he maintains his innocence strongly. Yeah, so he's not

95
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: going to yes, he he's not going to give he's

96
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 1: not going to say that he did something wrong because

97
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 1: he doesn't believe that he did. Emphatically doesn't believe that

98
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 1: he didn't know, and other people emphatically believe that he does.

99
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:23,599
Speaker 1: And the only ones that know are the people that

100
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: were there. And and so far the only rulings we've

101
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:27,719
Speaker 1: gotten have been from the criminal courts. We don't know

102
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: what the civil courts are going to to ultimately say.

103
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 1: So that is right now at this juncture, that's up

104
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 1: in the air. We'll see what happens. I think that yeah,

105
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: Look from a Cleveland Brown's perspective, right you're waiting on

106
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 1: the National Football League and has everybody's been saying that

107
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,719
Speaker 1: should come before training camp in terms of what the punishment,

108
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: if any, will be for Deshaun Watson and then it

109
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 1: we'll go from there. But right now he has not

110
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:02,039
Speaker 1: been punished. He he's the starting quarterback of the Cleveland Browns.

111
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: He has maintained his innocence to this point. Criminal courts

112
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: have agreed with him that no crime was committed. Civil

113
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: is a different matter, and we'll let that's gonna play out.

114
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,799
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens. It's also one of those things

115
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: where it feels like whatever you've decided on this, there's

116
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 1: no changing the mind, which is something that's our society

117
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: is right now. You know, like you say something out

118
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: loud and then you'll be damned if you'll change your

119
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,039
Speaker 1: mind one way or another. And I don't not. This

120
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,279
Speaker 1: isn't representing one side or the other. It's just a

121
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 1: matter of no one is really going to change their

122
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 1: view of this. The opinions have been made one way

123
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 1: or another, and so this is all happening and it's

124
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 1: going to continue to happen. I think you're right. I

125
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,159
Speaker 1: think you're gonna get some resolution. There will be some

126
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 1: end to it once the NFL makes their decision, but

127
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: that will be followed by an appeal. I'm sure, um

128
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 1: that there will be. If there is penalty that that

129
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 1: will be handed down, that will be an appeal. Then

130
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: that will go to Commissioner Goodell. And that's the process

131
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 1: of all of this. Um. In the meantime, you have

132
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 1: everything that's happening on in the football field, and it's

133
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 1: you know, it's our job to navigate these utters. And

134
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 1: and that's the the reality. The reality is this thing

135
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 1: was broadcast everywhere around the country live when he was

136
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 1: on ESPN. They broke into programming to show this thing.

137
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 1: So this is what the world at large is going

138
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: to be talking about today is going to be this

139
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: press conference. But in the meantime, this football team had

140
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 1: a mini camp as well. And you and I navigate

141
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 1: these waters. That's the job, and that's one that we're

142
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 1: very happy to If that's that's the that will be.

143
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 1: What just happened here in the last thirty minutes is

144
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 1: all anyone's gonna be talking about this afternoon and into tomorrow. Um,

145
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: And so that's that's the reality of this situation. It's

146
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: going to be that way for the foreseeable future, certainly

147
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 1: in terms of what happened on the field in the

148
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: first day of mandatory mini camp, we will go over

149
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: that today. UH Coach to Fancy spoke today as well.

150
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: You had a one on one with Joel Betonio that

151
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: we will have for you on the program as we

152
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: get things moving as well, and we'll take a look

153
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: at some of the things we saw on the field

154
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,480

177
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: So on the field, we had mini camp day one.

178
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: We got to see this full team out here one

179
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 1: of three days. But did you feel like see that

180
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: this was the one where it would be most real.

181
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: Do you think that will be Thursday We'll see you

182
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: or at the stadium on Thursday. I think today was

183
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: the one that most resembled a traditional full on mini

184
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 1: camp practice. We knew in the team portion that they

185
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,319
Speaker 1: were going to take it very easy, so it really

186
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: is a a passing camp. It's a seven on seven

187
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 1: you know, that's the crux of the most competitive periods

188
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: that are out there. Uh, this was the first time

189
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: that we've seen this team in completion. Offensively, we saw

190
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: Joel Bettonio for the first time this offseason and we're

191
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 1: gonna hear from him later on in the show. Uh,

192
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 1: rounding out that offensive line. We still haven't seen Jack

193
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,559
Speaker 1: Conklin yet as he recovers from injury. But in terms

194
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 1: of everybody who was available to be there, they were

195
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: all there. Is the first time we've seen Miles and

196
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: Clowney together this offseason. Clown who was here for a

197
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: day and Miles was here, uh you know as well

198
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 1: throughout the off season, but they weren't there together. And

199
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 1: so this was the first time you got to see

200
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 1: this entire team. Um, it's an impressive team. It's a

201
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: talented team. I mean, I talked with Joe Woods, which

202
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: I think we're playing later on this week, but I

203
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 1: talked with Joe Woods, had a great conversation with our

204
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,440
Speaker 1: defensive coordinators. He came off the field today and the

205
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 1: fact that matters is just a really talented football team.

206
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 1: It's a very talented offense with an extremely talented quarterback.

207
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 1: The best running back Tannam in the NFL um some

208
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 1: very good receivers, very good tight end and David a Joco,

209
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: a great offensive line. And then defensively you've got, you know,

210
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 1: one of the best edge tandems in the league. You

211
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:12,080
Speaker 1: have got probably one of the most athletic linebacking corps

212
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 1: in the league now with Jacob Phillips, who is if

213
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 1: if you want to say it was a star of

214
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 1: the off season so far. Defensively, there's two that jump

215
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 1: to mind immediately, and it's Jacob Phillips and it's Grant

216
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 1: Delpat Delpat d interception today in the red zone. He's

217
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: just seeing the field so well. He's around the ball.

218
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 1: You can hear the way he's talking everybody else about

219
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 1: what their responsibilities are. He's stepping up, Jacob Phillips is

220
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,840
Speaker 1: stepping up. But it is just a long, lean, fast,

221
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 1: athletic back seven. And they're all good. Denzel is good,

222
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,200
Speaker 1: Greg is good, Greedy is good. He didn't participate today.

223
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 1: But then m j Emerson slides and he said, man,

224
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 1: this guy is this guy is good. The safety's Ronie.

225
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 1: You coming back to be with John and with Grant

226
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 1: who's taking the big leave Jacob Phillips and and you

227
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: talk about um j Ok and Anthony Walker and C

228
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 1: Tech Tech. I mean, they're all the guys we know

229
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 1: they're running it back. That's rare coaching staff running it back.

230
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:03,559
Speaker 1: So there's a lot of continuity in this defense. There's

231
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,439
Speaker 1: a lot of talent on the field, and I think

232
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 1: that's what just stands out when you're out there, like

233
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 1: this is a talented, talented group on both sides of

234
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: the ball. And so the lynchpin obviously becomes how many

235
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,079
Speaker 1: games will Deshaun Watson played for the Cleveland Browns this year,

236
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,199
Speaker 1: And obviously the more he plays, the more realistic is

237
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: that this team can win a Super Bowl because they

238
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 1: are that talented. Yes, yeah, yeah, that's it. And so

239
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 1: you see, it is a little overwhelming to see it

240
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,560
Speaker 1: all out on the field together. And I think especially

241
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,079
Speaker 1: you know, the offense with Watson he has he has

242
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,080
Speaker 1: so many gifts and that you know you're working in

243
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 1: some new guys there. But to see this defense kind

244
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 1: of return intact with Joe Woods, it's just evident. I

245
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: mean it's really evident. The I saw Delput make the

246
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 1: interception play where Watson's looking for a Mari Cooper, you know,

247
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 1: kind of corner the end zone and del Put reads

248
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 1: it and comes over and makes that interception. Like they're

249
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 1: range e. They are long, they are rangey. They make

250
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 1: up ground in a quick amount in a short amount

251
00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 1: of time, a lot of ground a short amount of time.

252
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 1: They fly to the football. A lot of them look

253
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 1: the same um in terms of their their their build

254
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: we talked about a lot. They're all six to to ten,

255
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 1: it feels like to twenty um. They all kind of

256
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 1: look the same. That that just it's an Amibia effect

257
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,680
Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the ball, it really is.

258
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: It's just they flow to it very very quickly. They're

259
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: very sure themselves. You mentioned it, would Delpa I agree

260
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 1: with you on him being the start one of the

261
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 1: stars certainly for sure. He just he's everything you drafted

262
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 1: him to be. Looks completely comfortable in his skin, He

263
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 1: knows the answers to the test. That defense, to me,

264
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 1: has been has a chance to be just sensational this year,

265
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 1: so so athletic. It could end up being one of

266
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: the best past defenses in the NFL period. And I

267
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 1: think that, you know, if you're the Browns, there are

268
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 1: ways that I think Joe Woods can get really creative

269
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 1: this year where we have guys who can get to

270
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: the quarterback, but we have so many guys that can cover.

271
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 1: And I think that there are there's a possibility to

272
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:54,839
Speaker 1: get you know, say, let's just get our best guys

273
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:56,560
Speaker 1: on the field. We know j ok con Blitz, we

274
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,839
Speaker 1: know that Ronnie Complitz, we know that you know a

275
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,959
Speaker 1: walking blitzer, Jacob ups can Blitz. So I think we're

276
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 1: gonna see some things that maybe might not necessarily be traditional,

277
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 1: but allow us to get all of our best athletes

278
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 1: on the field. To your point, and I think that

279
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,439
Speaker 1: there is tremendous upside in the back seven. There's tremendous

280
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,720
Speaker 1: upside obviously at the front when you have those edges

281
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 1: that Jordan Elliot has really stood out, Tavin Brian, they

282
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 1: love his fitness system and Joe Wood's told me, you know,

283
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 1: he was a guy that when he was coming out

284
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 1: of Florida I loved when I was in Denver. Obviously

285
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 1: we didn't get our hands on him then, but we've

286
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 1: got him now. Um So I think this defense has

287
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 1: potential to be I mean elite, like really truly elite,

288
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 1: shut down, lockdown in a way that defenses really aren't

289
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 1: in the NFL anymore, and quite part of it's the

290
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 1: rules are are not for that. But if you honestly,

291
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 1: if you think about the Browns going out there in

292
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 1: a look where they've got on the field at the

293
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 1: same time, you know Phillips, j Okay, Grant, John, Ronnie Greedy,

294
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 1: Denzel greg Or, and then you can subd and M.

295
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 1: J Emerson for maybe Ronnie or one of the linebackers.

296
00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: You can move, you know, parts around. When you say yourself, okay,

297
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: who's back seven in the league is more athletic than that?

298
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: And I don't know if there is an answer, And

299
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 1: I mean that sincerely, And that's one of the things

300
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 1: that's jumped out I think to anybody watching this camp

301
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 1: is you know, the Sean made some great throws today,

302
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: but also at times in seven on sevens he's still

303
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 1: having to check it down because our coverage is so tight.

304
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: These guys have all played together, they know the scheme.

305
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: They're getting great coaching, obviously, just the defense as a

306
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 1: whole with Joe Woods put the back end in particular

307
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 1: with Jeff Howard and with Brandon Lynch that it is

308
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 1: an un and coach Tarver, who's back his neck injury

309
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 1: behind him. He's flying around the field now again, which

310
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 1: is great to see. But that this defense is impressive

311
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 1: and we haven't even seen it with the benefit of

312
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 1: the past rush that you know is gonna come whenever

313
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 1: you have Miles Garrett on the field and obviously Myles

314
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 1: Garrett Jenevion Clowney together. Yeah, that's the other part of it,

315
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 1: Like you have the back seven and then you have

316
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 1: one of the greatest pressure producing fronts with those two

317
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 1: guys at defensive end in the league. So it all

318
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 1: adds up. And I think your point is is well

319
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 1: taken that from a past defense stamp point, it's it's

320
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 1: going to be and it ought to be as good

321
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 1: as anybody in the league. And you just see you

322
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 1: know where they are with Woods and how comfortable they

323
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: are all with him. Uh, and and what is being

324
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 1: expected of this defense going forward? So on the defensive side. Uh,

325
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 1: that's that was Did you take note of anything in

326
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 1: terms of who was out there first team? Was there

327
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 1: anything like that that jumped out to you or was

328
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 1: it at this point? Is that even anything we're concerned

329
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 1: about now? I think our first team Nickel defense is

330
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 1: it was today Miles and Clowney at the ends, Taven Brian,

331
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 1: Jordan Elliott in the middle. UM, your linebackers were Phillips,

332
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: and it feels like Phillips is the starting MIC. It

333
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 1: just feels like he's jumped who has been a constant

334
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,000
Speaker 1: professional and leader about everything and a guy that is

335
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: great who is going to certainly have a role, but

336
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 1: it feels like, you know, he and j Okay Tackie

337
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: comes in when there's the base defense. UM. And then

338
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: your corners outside in Nickel are Greedy and Denzel inside

339
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 1: would be a Greg today m j Emerson was in

340
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 1: for Greedy. Your safeties are John Johnson and Grant Delpot

341
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 1: and now Ronnie comes in play some dime. We've seen

342
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 1: m j Emerson play some dime when Greedy was out there.

343
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: We've seen Denzel get represent Nicol as well on the inside. UM.

344
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 1: And you know what's gonna be interesting to me is

345
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 1: to see how do we put this front and pass

346
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,919
Speaker 1: rushing situations. Is it going to be you know, we're

347
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 1: gonna get our four best pass rushers out there, so

348
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 1: is that going to ultimately look like Miles Clowney, does

349
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:22,879
Speaker 1: Alex Right do that chase one of its you go

350
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 1: four d ns? Do you go three d ns and

351
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,679
Speaker 1: just bring a couple of blitzing linebackers with it, And

352
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,159
Speaker 1: so you can have you know, three d n s

353
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 1: with j Ok and Phillips on the field in the show,

354
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 1: you know, all five near the line of scrimmage, they

355
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 1: don't know where the rush is coming from, and you've

356
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 1: got your back seven behind that. I think there are

357
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 1: a lot of things that Joe Wood is gonna be

358
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 1: able to do with this defense. The flexibility of having

359
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 1: so many guys that can cover and that can run

360
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 1: the way that they can, and so I think this

361
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,639
Speaker 1: defense is going to be exciting. I do expect it

362
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: to be somewhat innovative this year in terms of some

363
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,199
Speaker 1: of the packages that he decides to put together. But

364
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 1: this is a team that is going to be incredibly

365
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 1: difficult to throw the football against. It's gonna be a

366
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,920
Speaker 1: team that is built defensively. I think to absolutely play

367
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 1: with the lead. And if you were to look in

368
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 1: all the advanced analytics and all of that that are

369
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 1: coming out about defense is the most important thing in

370
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,160
Speaker 1: the world. Form a defensive standpoint is not to allow

371
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 1: chunk plays, especially via the past. This is a team

372
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 1: that I think and and early in season it was

373
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 1: tough for us. As the season went on, we stopped

374
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 1: that and we became a very very good defense. And

375
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 1: I think we're gonna be better this year significantly. So

376
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: versatile as you're going through that nickel and you're talking

377
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 1: about the guys who aren't in, like the guys who

378
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,439
Speaker 1: aren't in our dudes, you know, like the guys who

379
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 1: are rotating, whether it's a walk or harrison, like those

380
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 1: guys rotating in our absolute dudes. And it speaks to

381
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 1: the versatility and the talent that's been accumulated here on

382
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 1: the defensive side of the ball. On the offensive side

383
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,640
Speaker 1: of the ball. UH, Deshaun Watson in this offense, we've

384
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: seen a lot of really cool things over the courts

385
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:51,680
Speaker 1: of the last month. UH. This was one that was

386
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 1: completely open to the media, so he had some triple

387
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,880
Speaker 1: option working with with Chub and Hunt both in there.

388
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: With Watson, we've seen him in the pistol. We've seen

389
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: them do some things with Anthony Schwartz. UH. This will

390
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: be something where Kevin Stefanski, Deshaun Watson, a VP, the

391
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 1: three of them start to build this thing through camp.

392
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:10,680
Speaker 1: But I can tell you this based on the little

393
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,160
Speaker 1: that I've seen, is that the groundwork for that has

394
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 1: been laid this spring, and that the jumping off point

395
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 1: when you get to August is going to be pretty

396
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 1: dang good. That a heck of a base has been

397
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 1: laid here. Yeah, and I think we got to see

398
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:26,159
Speaker 1: some things today, some wrinkles there that that have to

399
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:31,199
Speaker 1: be exciting, Right. You look at the the ability to

400
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 1: run a triple option where you've got to Sean given

401
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 1: it to Nick Chobb, but then you've got him also

402
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 1: coming out of it and running to the left with

403
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 1: an option with Kareem Hunt. And so we saw that

404
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:42,359
Speaker 1: today in one of the place. There's so much that

405
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:47,400
Speaker 1: this offense has to do um when you look at

406
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 1: the facts of the talent that you've got in your backfield.

407
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,120
Speaker 1: The good line. Amari Cooper continues to run great rounds.

408
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 1: Anthony Schwartz had some very nice reps today that got

409
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: Chato shape fired up. DPJ continues to impress. You've got

410
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:01,679
Speaker 1: tight ends in a Joco and Harrison Bryan. It's an

411
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,360
Speaker 1: offense that again can be incredibly versatile. David Bell knows

412
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 1: how to get open and catches the football whenever it's

413
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: thrown to them. So you've got a lot of ways

414
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 1: to win out of eleven personnel. You've got a lot

415
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 1: of ways to win out of two running backs, h

416
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: two receivers in one tight end, which was traditional pro form,

417
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,359
Speaker 1: but for the Browns it all never really looks like

418
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 1: a pro form. It looks very different because you've got

419
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 1: Kareem and Nick on the field together, you can use

420
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 1: your two tight end sets with Harrison in the chief.

421
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,200
Speaker 1: You know, maybe we won't see as many three tight

422
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:28,480
Speaker 1: end looks as we have in the past, and I

423
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,639
Speaker 1: think that's fine because our personnel dictates that we have

424
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 1: more talent in other places, and our ability to throw

425
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 1: the football is vastly changed. So this is yeah again,

426
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 1: this team as they chance to be very very special.

427
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:44,439
Speaker 1: It is talented, it's incredibly talented, it's incredibly well coached.

428
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 1: And so right now all we're waiting for is what

429
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 1: version of this team do we have for how long?

430
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,400
Speaker 1: When do we see it? When do we see it? Yeah,

431
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,199
Speaker 1: that's it, and that's something we don't know and you

432
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: don't have. You know, we you talked about yesterday a

433
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 1: little bit, and it you know, does feel like the

434
00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,399
Speaker 1: NFL has has done this investigation that they're on it,

435
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 1: but until there is some sort of ruling on that, um,

436
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,360
Speaker 1: you're not gonna know. And so that's kind of where

437
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 1: you're floating out there. But based on what we've seen

438
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 1: on the on the field, uh the spring, all spring long,

439
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 1: what we saw here today in the first day of minicamp,

440
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 1: this is an ultra talented football team. It really is.

441
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 1: It's just a matter of what do you see it

442
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 1: in its full capacity? How many games in if any,

443
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 1: maybe you see it get week one. It's hard to

444
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,120
Speaker 1: say where all of this could go, and everyone's kind

445
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 1: of floating around without much clue of in terms of

446
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: wind or or how long that whole thing will look.

447
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 1: With Watson Um Kevin Stefanski met with the media today

448
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:34,639
Speaker 1: as well. You will hear from that coming up. You

449
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:51,960
Speaker 1: listen to Cleveland Browns Daily on esp of Cleveland Cleveland

450
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 1: Brown's Daily on E S p N Cleveland. Certainly a

451
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: lot of advice out there about gambling, from secret methods

452
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:00,880
Speaker 1: to picking lottery and I'm is de betting big when

453
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 1: you're on a roll the misk and lose your money

454
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,159
Speaker 1: and get you a lot of trouble. So before you

455
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,920
Speaker 1: wager found out what's real and what isn't it, keep

456
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: it fun. Ohio dot Com coach Topansky addressed the media

457
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 1: after practice today, the first mini camp practice of the week.

458
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 1: Here's what he had to say. Let's have a listen. Okay,

459
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:19,199
Speaker 1: good to see everybody. Really good work out there, you know,

460
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 1: with this being the mandatory minicamp, obviously got the full

461
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:26,879
Speaker 1: roster out there, so great to get some solid situational

462
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:31,120
Speaker 1: football work again in the red zone, third down. Uh.

463
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 1: And then just I think what we're doing as coaches

464
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 1: is really challenging. The players were putting a lot in

465
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 1: each day uh this week, so there's mentally this is

466
00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 1: taxing them and that that's by design. So it should

467
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:43,479
Speaker 1: be hard that should have to spend extra time with

468
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 1: it because we're trying to just prepare them for in season.

469
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 1: How you have a lot in that game plan. So

470
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 1: a challenging day, but a good day's work. And now

471
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,159
Speaker 1: we'll go back inside and have some more meetings and

472
00:22:54,280 --> 00:23:00,720
Speaker 1: I'll walk through later, but without I'll take any questions. Kevin.

473
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 1: Last week he said there would be a point where

474
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 1: you are just accordingly in terms of snaps have you

475
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 1: reached out. Are you talking about in July? No, I'd

476
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 1: say waiting on more information, you know, going into the season.

477
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 1: We're not at that point yet. What if it you

478
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 1: like really best about Jacobe for Sanjetic, I give you

479
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 1: a competence he's done. Yeah, I do have confidence in Jacoby.

480
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 1: He's He's played a lot of football for a young player.

481
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,120
Speaker 1: He's a smart player. He takes care of the football, uh,

482
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 1: good size, can make all the throws, those type of things.

483
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 1: Has been in multiple offenses, so our offense is a

484
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 1: little bit different than what he's done previously. But has

485
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:44,679
Speaker 1: a really really good understanding of football, football intelligence that

486
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: is so I just think he's a really good operator,

487
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,240
Speaker 1: Jevin in terms of shun impossible discipline. Is the lead

488
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 1: giving you any idea or when this could come down

489
00:23:54,200 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: any time? For in whatsoever? To Kim obviously he's a

490
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,119
Speaker 1: practicing yet but what have you seen? You said, he's

491
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: been here every day. What have you seen from him?

492
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 1: And is the hope still that he's where Do you

493
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 1: think he'll be ready to go when training Yeah, I

494
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,520
Speaker 1: think we'll see on training camp Scott. But he's been

495
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 1: here every day, he's working really really hard. I think

496
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 1: he's transforming his body. I think he's getting stronger, as

497
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:22,360
Speaker 1: you know, Jack, Jack's attack this rehab. But him being

498
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,360
Speaker 1: here and being around his teammates has been important. But

499
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 1: where that looks, I don't know, but I'm very confident

500
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: that he's on schedule. And obviously he's an all pro guy.

501
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 1: So how important is he too? What do you guys

502
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,879
Speaker 1: want to do? Yeah? Jack somebody that we really value

503
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,880
Speaker 1: as a player and certainly as a teammate. Uh. He's

504
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 1: a tough football player, important to what we do, and

505
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 1: we'll be excited when he can get back. Uncertainty Yeah,

506
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,640
Speaker 1: I think we've kind of talked about that previously, Mary Kay,

507
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,680
Speaker 1: where these guys are professionals and they have to deal

508
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 1: with whatever is going on in the building that day

509
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:04,639
Speaker 1: and and can't have that stop them from doing their jobs. Really,

510
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 1: do you think Kevin, given Jacody's career path up until

511
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 1: this point, that he's maybe extra suited to kind of

512
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 1: handle that certainty? Yeah. Yeah, he's had some interesting experiences

513
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 1: in his young career, just through New England, what happened

514
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: in Indianapolis with Andrew Luck retire and so certainly has

515
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 1: had a action packed or a ton of experiences packed

516
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 1: into that short career of that Kevin, I mean set

517
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 1: we talked a lot about him bumping up at Josh.

518
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,679
Speaker 1: Dobbs would also back up, how CONFU would you be

519
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,160
Speaker 1: if you had to enter the season with the two? Yeah,

520
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 1: Dobbs had some really nice moments out here today. Uh

521
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,400
Speaker 1: has played good football, played good football at a big

522
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 1: program in college. Very smart as we all know. So yeah,

523
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 1: I think Dobbs is doing a nice job. Kevin. What

524
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,359
Speaker 1: goes through your mind and you see there's not not

525
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 1: the two more lawsuits with the Sean What do you

526
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 1: think you see more? Yeah? I think Jeff with that,

527
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be consistent and with what I've told you before,

528
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 1: and I'm just gonna let that situation play out. Does

529
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 1: it affect you? Don't like when you when when the

530
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 1: news comes out and you see it? Does it? Does

531
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,360
Speaker 1: it have an effect on you aside from your respecting

532
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 1: the process? I understand after like when you when you

533
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 1: see it? Yeah, I'm not going to get into those

534
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 1: type of things. I would just tell you every single

535
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,439
Speaker 1: day trying to make sure that that we UH focus

536
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,840
Speaker 1: on what is in front of us. What do you

537
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 1: say to the team about them, because obviously you can't

538
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:31,640
Speaker 1: totally block it out. I mean it's in the headlines

539
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 1: almost every day now, So what are you, as the

540
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,200
Speaker 1: coach say to the team. You have to have addressed

541
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:39,360
Speaker 1: this at some point. I think with anything that's happening

542
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 1: outside of our building, we've been very consistent with our

543
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,919
Speaker 1: team and making sure that we focus on our jobs

544
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 1: when we walk into the building. And that's that's a

545
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,199
Speaker 1: this situation, any situation, you name it, you and make

546
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 1: sure that you have a job to do when you're here.

547
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 1: And that's really what we're trying to do. Every good

548
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 1: plays out there, and he doesn't start to look like

549
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 1: the guy that Grant's been. He's been really good. He's

550
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 1: done a very nice job. I think he's got a

551
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 1: really good understanding of what we're trying to do Marlow,

552
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 1: which is half the battle, because you can play fast

553
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 1: when you know what you're doing. But he looks really

554
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 1: smooth and in and out of his transitions. You saw

555
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:16,479
Speaker 1: him make a play on the ball, so he's doing

556
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 1: a really nice job. Is there any point he would

557
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 1: you were considering at all canceling Minich or did you

558
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:25,360
Speaker 1: want to get something accomplished in the United at a time. Yeah,

559
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,680
Speaker 1: I like this offseason. I like when when you have

560
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 1: players here and you can get work done. So no,

561
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: that was not a consideration. Well, he's battled through an

562
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 1: injury right now, but to date has has looked really

563
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,680
Speaker 1: good and drills and uh, you know, provides that spark

564
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,640
Speaker 1: brings something to the table in the return game, which

565
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 1: we're excited about. No, it's he's working through it, but

566
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,479
Speaker 1: it's it's not long term with the since this is

567
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 1: your first full legitimate offseason program on the football field

568
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 1: with this team. Just I'm curious how you when you

569
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 1: go back and you see it with your code, because

570
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 1: and you're you're watching practice film and stuff like that.

571
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 1: Just from a coaching perspective, how do you evaluate the film.

572
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 1: It's easy to you know, see a defensive player make

573
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 1: a play and say, well the defense has added the

574
00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 1: offense and stuff like that. So I'm just kind of

575
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 1: curiously from a coaching perspective, how how do you evaluate

576
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: that film when you're just kind of sitting down going

577
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 1: through it. Well, I think the first thing you have

578
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 1: to realize is the way the rules are written. It's

579
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,679
Speaker 1: not written for the offense. And the defensive line, so

580
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 1: there's no pads on, there's no contact. The rules aren't

581
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,719
Speaker 1: written to have a ton of runs in your program

582
00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 1: because you just can't have contact. So it's harder to

583
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 1: evaluate the offense and the defensive line, certainly in a

584
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 1: program like this. UH. Having said that, I think they're

585
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 1: gonna a ton of great work in their individual periods

586
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 1: and then you can evaluate their alignment, assignment, those type

587
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 1: of things. UH. And then for us, really in total,

588
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: when you're out there and you're practicing, the defense does

589
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 1: a really nice job of taking care of the offense.

590
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 1: When the balls in the air, we don't want any collisions.

591
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: So you'll see a defensive back make a break on

592
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 1: a ball and pull up no that he doesn't want

593
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 1: to even a pass breakup. We don't want that because

594
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 1: we just don't want contact. And this UH day and

595
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 1: age and where we are as a football team, where

596
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 1: we are here in June, we will make sure that

597
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 1: we practice really hard and practice really smart. You would

598
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,240
Speaker 1: like to see something like that happen? And if so,

599
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,719
Speaker 1: I would you like to see them come back? I

600
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 1: I can't speak to that because not invited again. But

601
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 1: during that dead period, UH, We really don't have contact

602
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 1: with the players once that Thursday hits until their report date,

603
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:40,640
Speaker 1: but they have to spend time on it. And that's

604
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 1: both individually and if you can collectively, that's great. But

605
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 1: we're really looking forward to wrapping up this offseason program.

606
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 1: But then that window in between those whatever it is,

607
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 1: four or five weeks are so important to make sure

608
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 1: that you're coming uh into training camp in the best

609
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 1: shape of your life. You used that coach of the Brands,

610
00:29:56,760 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 1: Kevin Stefanski with us an in practice. Is your team

611
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 1: better right now than it is any I think it's

612
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 1: so hard to say, Tony. Uh, it's different having practice

613
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 1: out there like we're doing. I will tell you we've

614
00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 1: covered way more ground as an offense, defense, special teams.

615
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 1: We've been able to install more, We've been able to

616
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 1: get more reps at UH concepts, which I think is

617
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 1: really beneficial. But that's no different than the rest of

618
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 1: the league as well. Uh. You know, all thirty two

619
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 1: teams have that luxury this season, but for various reasons,

620
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 1: we haven't less a couple of couple more this year.

621
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 1: This is gonna be my best team, you know, I

622
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 1: don't really think of it in those terms, Tony, I

623
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 1: really think about what we got going on that day. Uh, certainly,

624
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 1: you know, you're always excited going into any season, or

625
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 1: we're with your guys and you're trying to figure out

626
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 1: ways that you're gonna win on Sundays in the fall.

627
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 1: But for right now, we're really focusing on the work.

628
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,800
Speaker 1: All right. There's Kevin spans Can also Aaron involved as well,

629
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 1: so there was coaching after pressor there's a lot of

630
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 1: a lot of balls in the air, a lot of

631
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 1: balls in the air. Yeah. I mean, look that you've

632
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 1: got two more. You've got this one in the books,

633
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 1: then you're gonna have two more. You get Wednesday down

634
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 1: in Canton. They'll go down there, but that is more

635
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 1: of a walk through and then they will get into

636
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 1: probably a tour of the hall, and I'm sure there's

637
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 1: something down there to understand the importance of the history

638
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 1: of our game. And I think that will be a

639
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 1: humbling experience for a lot of guys wearing this uniform

640
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 1: because you walk those halls and the Cleveland Browns are omnipresent,

641
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 1: So I think that there's a real impact there. The coach,

642
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 1: Defanski is looking for a little bit of a field trip.

643
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 1: You get a little energy with that down there, and

644
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 1: that place is absolutely awesome. Here Mike's on giveing. Frankly,

645
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 1: that is the cherry on top today for how this

646
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 1: day is going. Uh. The good news is, uh, it

647
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 1: will be a very short practice tomorrow since it's going

648
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 1: to be a hundred degrees and that's not counting what

649
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 1: it's going to be on the turf. Oh no, it'll

650
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 1: be yeah, you know with just the turf on that front. Yeah,

651
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,440
Speaker 1: it's so. But I didn't feel it coming in here

652
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 1: this morning. It hasn't. We haven't gotten that heat yet,

653
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 1: so it's coming right, that's the idea. Well, when the

654
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: sun came out, right, when availability started conveniently, Um, it

655
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 1: escalated pretty fast all of a sudden, it was. It

656
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,360
Speaker 1: was a little stifling there by the end. How was

657
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 1: your how was your lightning last night? Do you have

658
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 1: any any damages? It was just just the noise and

659
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:28,520
Speaker 1: that that big line that spurned that I guess reportedly

660
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:33,160
Speaker 1: a tornado. I didn't know that. Yeah, they were. They

661
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 1: were cleaning up this morning with snow plows. Oh my god,

662
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,719
Speaker 1: so god, bless us people. I didn't see. Toledo had

663
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:43,720
Speaker 1: like ninety mile winds. That frontline was just west of Alirious,

664
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 1: so probably twenty minutes from us. So we got lightning

665
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 1: and raining, we got a thunderstorm, but nothing like no

666
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 1: big blast. Now, unfortunately they're they're saying Thursday this there

667
00:32:57,680 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 1: there will be a front coming to cool this all

668
00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: day owned in this hundred degree weather is going to

669
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: go away. But that could make for a very interesting

670
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,200
Speaker 1: day for the last day of minicamp, depending on when

671
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 1: that timeline is for the storms and the weather. These

672
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 1: type of giant weather swings. No one wins with this

673
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 1: stuff you talked about yesterday. This is what happens when

674
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 1: it's a hundred degrees and commit that it's bad. Yeah,

675
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,960
Speaker 1: it was a lightning it was. The lightning was unbelievable

676
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 1: in last night and the thunder, but we did not

677
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 1: have the wind downpoured, we didn't have the wind with it.

678
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 1: It was just the lightning and the thunder, and the

679
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 1: lightning lit up the whole sky. It was my one

680
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 1: dog does not do well, so therefore I do not

681
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 1: do well from the sleeve standpoint. Last Yeah, No, it's tough.

682
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 1: It's tough. Um. And by the speaking of weather, have

683
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 1: you seen this stuff coming out of the homeland for me,

684
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,840
Speaker 1: the Montana stuff. Yellowstone National Park is closed. I did

685
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 1: you know what? I did see that? So they went

686
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:54,960
Speaker 1: from historic drought to eight to twelve inches of rain

687
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 1: and it it created historic flooding. UM. The main road

688
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 1: the show Yelled Stones based in Paradise Valley. It's actually

689
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 1: shot in the Bitter Road Valley, which is western Montana,

690
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:08,359
Speaker 1: but it's based in Paradise Valley. UM. That is one

691
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:12,239
Speaker 1: of two Montana entrances to the park. One of them

692
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 1: is through Gardener that which I went on last year.

693
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:17,400
Speaker 1: We took the boys in the Yellowstone. That road is gone.

694
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,279
Speaker 1: It has been swallowed up by a river. Uh. There

695
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 1: are two roads into this this small town that's kind

696
00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 1: of an entrance into the into Yellsta National Park. Both

697
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:29,319
Speaker 1: roads are closed. So this little town is closed. You

698
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,160
Speaker 1: cannot get goods in or out of this little town.

699
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,920
Speaker 1: And it's loaded Gardener, Montana. It's loaded with tourists and

700
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,240
Speaker 1: there's no way to feed them all and take because

701
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 1: of because of what's happening, it's completely shut down. Just

702
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 1: it's incredible. A foot of rain after months of drought.

703
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:47,640
Speaker 1: I saw a little something. There was a drone. They

704
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 1: put a drone up to show the roadway around the

705
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 1: around these mouths. That was it, And it's just you're like,

706
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 1: what am I looking at? And then you look get

707
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 1: close and you're like, well, that road doesn't exist. Now

708
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:01,360
Speaker 1: there's a car meanwhile between the two areas where the

709
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,520
Speaker 1: road has no longer exist, correct, And you're like, well,

710
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,880
Speaker 1: I wonder how they're getting out today. Well, and that

711
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 1: this isn't exactly like replacing a pothole one on the

712
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 1: edge of a cliff. You're on the edge of a cliff,

713
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 1: and so to build the road you're going to have

714
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 1: to dig into the mountain again, Like this could take

715
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:21,319
Speaker 1: a year to build that back up. And this is

716
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:24,399
Speaker 1: the height of Yellowstone tourists as a season. So now

717
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 1: it's it's absolutely crazy. Um, that's what's going on weather

718
00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:30,320
Speaker 1: wise here. Yeah. I didn't I didn't have the damage.

719
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:31,919
Speaker 1: I didn't realize there was that type of damage around

720
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,760
Speaker 1: the area. I missed that. That sucks. There's nothing more helpless.

721
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:38,279
Speaker 1: It was the worst thing is it's it's at night.

722
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,799
Speaker 1: You can't see it, you don't know. Yeah, and then

723
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,760
Speaker 1: all of a sudden it's like, oh, it's one o'clock

724
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,839
Speaker 1: in the morning and we gotta run for the basement. Yeah,

725
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,359
Speaker 1: that's that's where you're at. Yeah, that's where you're at.

726
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,239
Speaker 1: Godspeed to those out there with the damage. It's uh,

727
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:56,200
Speaker 1: it's terrifying stuff. So um, we will go around the

728
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 1: league coming up next. A lot of the conversation today

729
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 1: is obviously been about to show Watson and the press conference.

730

Speaker 1: good to have them on board. As we go around

746
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,200
Speaker 1: the league on this fine Tuesday, a lot of news

747
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 1: around the league. And let's start with our one of

748
00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,560
Speaker 1: our other quarterbacks currently on a roster, and that's Baker Mayfield.

749
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,799
Speaker 1: This from Jonathan Jones, a CBS Sports NFL insider, their

750
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,880
Speaker 1: new insider there by the way at at CBS, um

751
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:24,520
Speaker 1: is this notion of the Browns and the Panthers dealing

752
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 1: with a potential trade with Baker Mayfield. The Panthers. According

753
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,359
Speaker 1: to Jones's report, the Panthers like to get something done

754
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:33,480
Speaker 1: now so that Mayfield can have some time with the

755
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:35,439
Speaker 1: team during this week's Minnie camp. But there's no sign

756
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 1: that anyone is budging on the salary front at this point.

757
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:39,960
Speaker 1: So it comes down to how much does anybody want

758
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 1: to pay? Um. From the Panthers standpoint, would the thinking be, hey,

759
00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:48,400
Speaker 1: let's have Baker compete with Sam Donald. Yeah, I guess so.

760
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:50,839
Speaker 1: You want a lot of quarterbacks in the room it is,

761
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,000
Speaker 1: and you want to if you want to make a

762
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:55,359
Speaker 1: move for him, you want to get him back as

763
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:57,359
Speaker 1: quickly as possible, right, or do you want to get

764
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 1: him into your building and into your playbook as quickly

765
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,839
Speaker 1: as you possibly can. So I think that there is

766
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,080
Speaker 1: The Browns are content to just kind of let this

767
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 1: thing the play out as it is. They the leverage

768
00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 1: they have is that they don't feel compelled to do anything.

769
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:15,839
Speaker 1: So the Panthers, if you want him, you're gonna need

770
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:18,319
Speaker 1: to pay a portion of it. They'll work that out,

771
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,719
Speaker 1: I'm guessing, and then they'll have, you know, a quarterback

772
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:24,920
Speaker 1: that is better than Sam Donald. At this point, they

773
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 1: drafted macarrowl and they've moved up in the third round

774
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:31,360
Speaker 1: the draft Macarrow. So we'll see, we'll see. It's one

775
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:33,759
Speaker 1: of those situations. I think for Baker it would be

776
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,399
Speaker 1: great for him to have a new home sooner rather

777
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,879
Speaker 1: than later. And I think for the Browns it would

778
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 1: be good to have this resolve. But there's no urgency

779
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:43,440
Speaker 1: for the Browns. There's probably margins more for him for Baker,

780
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 1: and you know, you want to see him get a

781
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:49,560
Speaker 1: chance to succeed wherever he goes. You know, isn't Winston

782
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:53,480
Speaker 1: coming off of a knee in New Orleans like to me,

783
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 1: that would be more than Carolina. I have no idea

784
00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 1: what their salary cap situation is, um, but you know,

785
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:03,279
Speaker 1: is Winstead all the way back from the knee, that

786
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 1: to me would make more this Carolina thing. I mean

787
00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:09,279
Speaker 1: just from his perspective, Um, that's that's just so many

788
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in one room. It is. And my guess is

789
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,680
Speaker 1: that maybe there would be that would be another move

790
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:20,399
Speaker 1: from there, right, so you would we would see how

791
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 1: that goes. But when I look at you know, some

792
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:29,600
Speaker 1: of the teams. Look, if Jimmy Garoppolo isn't with the Niners,

793
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 1: that's a team that would make a lot of sense

794
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 1: because who's there back? Who else did they have besides

795
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:38,279
Speaker 1: Trey Lance at quarterback? They've got Nate Sudfeld and Brock Purty.

796
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 1: Does that does that keep you happy? Is that? Does

797
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 1: that keep you satisfied? I don't know. I don't know.

798
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:46,440
Speaker 1: Knowing Bake, I don't know how he would do as

799
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:49,279
Speaker 1: a backup. I mean that might be part of what

800
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 1: it this is right now, but just he's such a

801
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,880
Speaker 1: force of personality. I don't know. Um. Obviously the one

802
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:56,839
Speaker 1: that makes the most sense of Seattle, But I don't

803
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,400
Speaker 1: think Seattle's trying. I think Seattle wants to trap c J. Stroud.

804
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 1: I think they do. I think Atlanta does you know

805
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:04,600
Speaker 1: they I know they drafted Desmond Ritter, but you would

806
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:06,440
Speaker 1: say they do so Andy Dalton is the one who

807
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 1: went to I knew they signed somebody. Andy Dalton's in

808
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,719
Speaker 1: New Orleans. In New Orleans, so that would probably take

809
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 1: them out. But yeah, there are It feels like there

810
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:18,560
Speaker 1: are teams that but it would be the team's other

811
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,919
Speaker 1: than Carolina where he could compete. You know, he's coming

812
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 1: in to be a backup, and so the question is

813
00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 1: is you know, would Minnesota on him as the backup

814
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 1: to Kirk Cousins. You know, they've got Sean Mannion and

815
00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 1: they've got Kellen Mond who is a third round pick

816
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,400
Speaker 1: in twenty one. Do they like Kellen Monds? He developed?

817
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:35,880
Speaker 1: Is he the guy in the future. I don't know.

818
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:39,560
Speaker 1: There are just I think about the Bucks, you know,

819
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:42,439
Speaker 1: sit behind Brady for a year. They brought Gabbered back,

820
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:46,479
Speaker 1: and they have Kyle Trask. Yeah, I don't know. Yeah,

821
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:48,319
Speaker 1: I'm not sold in either one of those guys, But

822
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,760
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know. There's a familiarity. The Rams

823
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:53,880
Speaker 1: make a lot of sense They're backups are John Woolford

824
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:57,360
Speaker 1: and Bryce Perkins. You know, do they want to have

825
00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:59,800
Speaker 1: an insurance policy in case something happens to Matthew Stafford

826
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:03,200
Speaker 1: at that can compete that The options just aren't that

827
00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 1: good and nobody's paying though, you know, eighteen million dollars

828
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 1: for a backup, and I think that's clearly why the

829
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 1: situation is here. I don't know that. I don't know

830
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,080
Speaker 1: who would dispute that he is one of the thirty

831
00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 1: two best quarterbacks on the planet. I don't think anybody would.

832
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 1: I know I certainly would not dispute that fact. It's

833
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:23,839
Speaker 1: just a matter of do people feel like he ever

834
00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:28,759
Speaker 1: can be a top ten quarterback? And I think if

835
00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:30,880
Speaker 1: the answer to that was yes, teams would be lining

836
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,560
Speaker 1: up and falling all over themselves to have gotten him

837
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:35,720
Speaker 1: from the Cleveland Browns. So that tells you that nobody

838
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,319
Speaker 1: in the league at this point believes that doesn't mean

839
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:41,320
Speaker 1: that it won't ever come to fruition, but teams preferred

840
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:44,719
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz to him. Teams preferred an aged Matt Ryan

841
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,919
Speaker 1: to him significantly at this point, and so those would

842
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 1: be the two that you would say, we're at least

843
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 1: in the realm that he would be in discussions about.

844
00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:53,839
Speaker 1: You know, he had kind of made a public play

845
00:41:53,840 --> 00:42:00,799
Speaker 1: for Indianapolis. So talented quarterback, the opportunities you'll limited. And

846
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:02,680
Speaker 1: I think ultimately one of the big shames and the

847
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,560
Speaker 1: whole thing is that he just wasn't included in the

848
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:07,279
Speaker 1: original deal because Houston makes a lot of makes all

849
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,879
Speaker 1: the sense, that's the spot. But they and so that

850
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 1: was that led to their decision process. You have to

851
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 1: have a dance partners in these things, and if if

852
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,200
Speaker 1: no one's willing to to engage, then it kind of

853
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,200
Speaker 1: is what it is. And I think you hit it

854
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:21,600
Speaker 1: on the head. Though I think it's far more in

855
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:23,279
Speaker 1: comment on Baker to find a new home than it

856
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:25,640
Speaker 1: is the Browns to to be forced into something that

857
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:28,279
Speaker 1: they don't get where they want on that they can

858
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 1: afford to be patient on this front um. In terms

859
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 1: of the Bengals, this from down in Cincinnati. They had

860
00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:37,080
Speaker 1: pro dated a Joe Burrow said he feels fantastic. First

861
00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:40,200
Speaker 1: time he's felt. Actually bragged about how fast he ran

862
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,080
Speaker 1: in some of the conditioning stuff, so he feels good.

863
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:47,719
Speaker 1: Um who asked about Odell Beckham Jr. Recently Posted solo

864
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:50,960
Speaker 1: social media message indicating that his Spidey sense is tingling.

865
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 1: Beckham responded with the two word message, the one. It's

866
00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 1: vague to be sure, but it's worth wondering whether their

867
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:57,759
Speaker 1: Burrow and Beckham, who both played at LS, you would

868
00:42:57,760 --> 00:42:59,400
Speaker 1: like to get together. I mean, I can see how

869
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:01,040
Speaker 1: Beckham would that. I could see how it would be

870
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:02,960
Speaker 1: a fit for the Cincinnati Bengals as well. They can

871
00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:04,920
Speaker 1: just add it to their mix of guys. But they

872
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,600
Speaker 1: got three studs already know that they need it. But

873
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:10,399
Speaker 1: he's not gonna be back until Thanksgiving anyway. I mean,

874
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,520
Speaker 1: it's it's not like it's going to be immediate. No.

875
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,319
Speaker 1: That one just feels a little bit odd to me

876
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:19,799
Speaker 1: in the sense that who look, for example, the ram

877
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,760
Speaker 1: As you knew he could come in and play right away.

878
00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:26,920
Speaker 1: Tyler boys they're inside either outside guys are t Higgins

879
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:31,839
Speaker 1: and Jamar Chase. He's not taken. So that one doesn't

880
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:33,720
Speaker 1: make a lot of sense to me. There are teams

881
00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:35,279
Speaker 1: that it doesn't make sense where you come in and

882
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:36,880
Speaker 1: he could be you know, you're looking for a situation

883
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:38,759
Speaker 1: where where could he be like a good number two.

884
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:42,839
Speaker 1: I think if you went, for example, to Tennessee. That's

885
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:44,279
Speaker 1: a good fit. They lose a J. Brown. I know

886
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:47,360
Speaker 1: they drafted Traylon Burkes, but give them a real He

887
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 1: could be the top outside guy in that offense for them,

888
00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:54,520
Speaker 1: green Bay, Green Bay would be you know, to put

889
00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:57,560
Speaker 1: him there. Um, who happened? What happens in Kansas City?

890
00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 1: Who knows how that goes? As they replaced Tyreek because

891
00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:02,879
Speaker 1: it First of all, Tyreeks comments, which we did talk about,

892
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 1: are so bizarre to me. Secondly, Juju Smith Schuster is

893
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 1: already saying he could see himself back in Pittsburgh and

894
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:10,799
Speaker 1: he hasn't even like played the year yet in Kansas City.

895
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:15,120
Speaker 1: Miss that he said, I don't know you have. The

896
00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:17,279
Speaker 1: tiree thing was crazy because the thing was like it

897
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:18,760
Speaker 1: had to be said, and I'm like, well, no it didn't.

898
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:20,440
Speaker 1: That's the name of the podcast. It has to be

899
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:22,800
Speaker 1: just had to be said, Well no it doesn't actually

900
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,879
Speaker 1: because it's nonsense. That's the result. But even so, like,

901
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 1: even if you have all that belief into uh and

902
00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:32,839
Speaker 1: maybe he does, maybe he truly believes what he's saying about. Two,

903
00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:36,400
Speaker 1: there's no reason to even put that out there publicly,

904
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 1: put it out there privately and then let him go

905
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:40,839
Speaker 1: into situation like there's already pressure on him. He's got

906
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:43,280
Speaker 1: as we talked about the bevy of weapons at his disposal.

907
00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:45,640
Speaker 1: But let him just go out there and then succeed.

908
00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:47,720
Speaker 1: I feel like that makes all the sense in the world.

909
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 1: I think that his um yes agreed, and I think

910
00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:53,960
Speaker 1: that there's that. The other thing, the fact of that

911
00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:57,080
Speaker 1: is too obviously as Rabbit ears, he hears everything, as

912
00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 1: his press conference would lead you to believe, because in

913
00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:01,320
Speaker 1: one of his press conference seek he addressed the video

914
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:03,920
Speaker 1: that their team put out of him under throwing Tyreek

915
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:06,279
Speaker 1: Hill like he addressed it. What did he say? Just

916
00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,439
Speaker 1: about how well I made several throws that that were

917
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:10,120
Speaker 1: you should have saw these other like he addressed that

918
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:13,000
Speaker 1: it was crazy. Why what are you doing? Like? Why

919
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:14,920
Speaker 1: are you paying attention to it? Get put your phone down,

920
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:18,560
Speaker 1: man um. This from Dallas head coach Mike McCarthy SE's

921
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:21,160
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott running more this season. McCarthy said to Daily

922
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:24,000
Speaker 1: plans to put more called run quarterback runs in the

923
00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:27,279
Speaker 1: Cowboys offenses, seeing saying Prescott now looks completely healed from

924
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:29,000
Speaker 1: his ankle injury and ready to make more plays with

925
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:31,760
Speaker 1: his legs than he did last year. Um, this honestly

926
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:35,360
Speaker 1: feels like Mike McCarthy in Dallas is going to be

927
00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:37,920
Speaker 1: one of the biggest botches of Jerry Jones's career. And

928
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,960
Speaker 1: he's had some, but this feels like the absolute worst

929
00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:43,120
Speaker 1: coach at the absolute worst time because there was a

930
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:45,640
Speaker 1: window for them where they had a lot going on

931
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:49,200
Speaker 1: and this guy, it just feels like that you blew

932
00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:52,439
Speaker 1: it boy in every way. So and when you say

933
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:55,520
Speaker 1: more running, what that means is probably a return. So

934
00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 1: in the first three years that he was in the league,

935
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott two two yards, six touchdowns, twenty one first

936
00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:05,040
Speaker 1: downs his first year. Second year three d fifty seven

937
00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:08,440
Speaker 1: yards rushing, six touchdowns, twenty nine first downs. Third year

938
00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:11,760
Speaker 1: three hundred five yards rushing, six touchdowns, twenty five first downs.

939
00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:15,240
Speaker 1: Fourth year it drops to two seventy seven yards rushing

940
00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:18,200
Speaker 1: and three touchdowns. In the year he got hurt in

941
00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:21,200
Speaker 1: only five games, he had ninety three yards rushing in

942
00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:24,480
Speaker 1: three touchdowns and eight first downs. Last year in the

943
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:28,719
Speaker 1: entire season, forty eight rushes, a hundred and forty six yards,

944
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:32,040
Speaker 1: one touchdown, only seven first down So we had fewer

945
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:34,439
Speaker 1: first downs rushing in one than he did in five

946
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:37,880
Speaker 1: games in So I think we're reading that as being

947
00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:40,759
Speaker 1: he's gonna use it, We're gonna do a bunch more

948
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:43,520
Speaker 1: of the runner that No, what you mean is he's

949
00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:45,600
Speaker 1: gonna be a more effective scrambler. We're gonna have a

950
00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:48,040
Speaker 1: few designed you know, we can use him back in

951
00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:51,239
Speaker 1: the ways that we did before. Because twenty one twenty nine,

952
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 1: so that's fifty and twenty five, so it's perfect. Twenty

953
00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:56,440
Speaker 1: five first downs a game in sixteen games means he

954
00:46:56,520 --> 00:46:58,359
Speaker 1: got you one and a half first downs a game

955
00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:01,719
Speaker 1: with his legs. But if memory serves a lot of

956
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:05,480
Speaker 1: that's broken pockets, step up like running it with him,

957
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:07,920
Speaker 1: you know, like he's just but it's just comfortable running.

958
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:10,960
Speaker 1: He's a better right and for his career, he's a

959
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:14,200
Speaker 1: guy that averages prior to last season, you know, over

960
00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:17,239
Speaker 1: eighteen yards of game rushing. Last year he average nine.

961
00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:19,359
Speaker 1: I think it just means getting him more involved as

962
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:21,200
Speaker 1: like somebody that is going to extend plays with his legs,

963
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:23,800
Speaker 1: extend drives with his legs, because last year he didn't

964
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:25,719
Speaker 1: give you half of a first down to game, and

965
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:27,359
Speaker 1: before he's given you a first down and a half.

966
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:29,680
Speaker 1: Think about it from an offensive standpoint, that's one more

967
00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:31,840
Speaker 1: set of three downs that you can Maybe that's the

968
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 1: difference between you know, a punt and and end up

969
00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:37,239
Speaker 1: scoring at the end of a drive. So I think

970
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:40,160
Speaker 1: that that's what he means. I just don't to your point.

971
00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:43,560
Speaker 1: I think that it is sometimes articulated poorly and it

972
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:46,120
Speaker 1: does not feel like the right fit for that talent,

973
00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:49,759
Speaker 1: that town, that any of it, No, none of it.

974
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:52,759
Speaker 1: What was that games? Was that game last year? He

975
00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:58,080
Speaker 1: had all the camel on. Yeah, they ain't gonna cut it, brother,

976
00:47:58,200 --> 00:47:59,960
Speaker 1: not in big d That ain't gonna get it done.

977

00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:13,120
Speaker 1: also want to say I know that they're still legal

1019
00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:16,120
Speaker 1: proceedings still going on, so I know, you know, you

1020
00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:18,239
Speaker 1: guys have a lot of questions that you probably want

1021
00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:20,680
Speaker 1: to answer or I won't ask us to and want

1022
00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:23,040
Speaker 1: to ask um, and some of those I'll try my

1023
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:25,160
Speaker 1: best answer, but at the same time, I have to

1024
00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:29,240
Speaker 1: respect the process that is still going on, and UM,

1025
00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:31,640
Speaker 1: I may may not be able to answer those questions.

1026
00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:33,680
Speaker 1: So I hope you guys you don't respect that and

1027
00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:45,520
Speaker 1: let the proceedings continue to work out. But uh, UM, honestly,

1028
00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:47,759
Speaker 1: it's been you know, it's been tough. UM. You know,

1029
00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:51,080
Speaker 1: just trying to make sure that I stay balanced with

1030
00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:54,080
Speaker 1: my my mental and just my social life. But I

1031
00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:57,200
Speaker 1: have a great family. Um, I have a great legal team,

1032
00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:59,480
Speaker 1: and I have a great supportcast here in this organization.

1033
00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:01,600
Speaker 1: So when I walk into the building, all that stuff

1034
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:04,600
Speaker 1: is outside. I gotta focus on football and my teammates

1035
00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:06,720
Speaker 1: and building that trust with those guys in the football

1036
00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:08,919
Speaker 1: field and off the field, and just really just coming

1037
00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:11,360
Speaker 1: to work because the game plan is, you know, the

1038
00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:15,960
Speaker 1: season starts and getting everyone on the same page. The

1039
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:20,319
Speaker 1: number of cases have to increase. That surprising to you. Um,

1040
00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:22,399
Speaker 1: Like I said before, I I go each and every

1041
00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:24,640
Speaker 1: day focusing on my task and being the best person

1042
00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:26,960
Speaker 1: I can be. I can't control what you know, the

1043
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:30,239
Speaker 1: other side is doing with the legal process. But um,

1044
00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:31,920
Speaker 1: like I said before, I just got to continue to

1045
00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:34,360
Speaker 1: just focus on being the best of Shaun Watson I

1046
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:37,480
Speaker 1: can be for this organization. When you when you met

1047
00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:40,560
Speaker 1: with the when you've met with the NFL, how has

1048
00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:44,040
Speaker 1: that gone? And are you really are you concerned with

1049
00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:47,680
Speaker 1: waiting for this decision from a league? Um? Yeah, I

1050
00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:49,920
Speaker 1: can't control that, you know. I met with the NFL

1051
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:52,960
Speaker 1: um a couple of weeks ago, and I did everything

1052
00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:55,959
Speaker 1: they asked me to do. I answered every question truthfully, Uh,

1053
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:58,760
Speaker 1: that that the NFL asked me. Um. I spent hours

1054
00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,279
Speaker 1: with those with those with the people that they brought down,

1055
00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:03,160
Speaker 1: and that's all I can do is just tell them

1056
00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:05,959
Speaker 1: and be honest and tell them exactly what happened. And

1057
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:07,440
Speaker 1: they I know they have a job, and so I

1058
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:09,120
Speaker 1: have to respect that. And that's what we wanted to do,

1059
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,520
Speaker 1: is cooperate. And you know, they have to make a

1060
00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:15,839
Speaker 1: decision best for the lead. You know, so very clear

1061
00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:19,960
Speaker 1: about all these lawsuits. Uh, when these cases, if they

1062
00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:23,160
Speaker 1: go before a jury, why should a jury that might

1063
00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:27,640
Speaker 1: hear these cases believe you over dozens of women. UM.

1064
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,640
Speaker 1: I understand that question, and I definitely respect it. But

1065
00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:33,520
Speaker 1: I feel like with this environment coming off the football

1066
00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:36,280
Speaker 1: feel it's hard to answer that question, uh without especially

1067
00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:39,880
Speaker 1: without talking to anybody on my legal team. UM. But

1068
00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:41,719
Speaker 1: at the same time, you know, I've been honest and

1069
00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:45,080
Speaker 1: I've been truthful about my stance. UM, and that's you know,

1070
00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:48,680
Speaker 1: I never forced anyone, I never assaulted anyone. So UM,

1071
00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:51,560
Speaker 1: that's what you know. I've been saying it from the

1072
00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:53,880
Speaker 1: beginning and I'm going to continue to do that and

1073
00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,439
Speaker 1: until all the facts come out on the legal side,

1074
00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:58,920
Speaker 1: I have to continue to just you know, go with

1075
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:01,440
Speaker 1: the process from my legal team and UM, you know

1076
00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:04,880
Speaker 1: the court of law. You've been very animate about your

1077
00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:09,359
Speaker 1: innocence in stating your innocence. My question is these allegations

1078
00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:13,760
Speaker 1: have done a tremendous amount of harm to your reputation. UM.

1079
00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:18,799
Speaker 1: Had you thought about, um a counter suit for for

1080
00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:23,040
Speaker 1: defamation because these accusations have been you know, very clear,

1081
00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:28,080
Speaker 1: very strong, and have painted you in such a negative light. UM.

1082
00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:31,000
Speaker 1: I understand that, and I know these allegations. Uh, it's

1083
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:33,239
Speaker 1: very it's very serious, and you know you have to

1084
00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:36,080
Speaker 1: respect that and and everything that goes with it. In

1085
00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:38,279
Speaker 1: the impact so many people, not just me and my

1086
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:41,680
Speaker 1: family and this organization, but people that outside in the community,

1087
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:44,759
Speaker 1: this fan base, people, UM, from the Houston fan base,

1088
00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:47,279
Speaker 1: anyone that was you know, a fan of mine. But

1089
00:53:47,600 --> 00:53:50,000
Speaker 1: as far as that, UM, I haven't got into any

1090
00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:51,640
Speaker 1: of that. My biggest thing is just wanted to clear

1091
00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:53,680
Speaker 1: my name so I can get back, you know, being

1092
00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:55,960
Speaker 1: in an environment that you know, I'm most comfortable in,

1093
00:53:56,239 --> 00:53:58,880
Speaker 1: and that's been in the community and helping people and

1094
00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:01,759
Speaker 1: being that that role model and leader. Uh, and also

1095
00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:03,719
Speaker 1: being on the football field with my teammates and try

1096
00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:07,440
Speaker 1: to win ball games. So, uh, that's that's something that

1097
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:09,719
Speaker 1: I haven't really been focused on, just really cleared my

1098
00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:12,480
Speaker 1: name and just focusing on doing what's right and and

1099
00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:15,239
Speaker 1: being honest and whatever whoever I have to answer to,

1100
00:54:15,320 --> 00:54:17,799
Speaker 1: I have to give them the true facts. When we

1101
00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:21,680
Speaker 1: talked to you, you've told us that you were not

1102
00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:26,000
Speaker 1: settled on the court. Yet after that, a report came

1103
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:29,320
Speaker 1: out that your team will offered a hundred thousand dollars

1104
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:32,720
Speaker 1: to each of these accusers. So what is the truth

1105
00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:37,560
Speaker 1: was that money offered or or not? Um? I feel like,

1106
00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:39,799
Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of articles that's out there

1107
00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:42,400
Speaker 1: and then fast and things like that. Um, you know

1108
00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:44,319
Speaker 1: that was a process that was going on back in

1109
00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:48,919
Speaker 1: November with another organization. UM. So I can't really get

1110
00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:51,239
Speaker 1: too far in details with that, but you know, with

1111
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:53,080
Speaker 1: the process that was going on before I became in

1112
00:54:53,120 --> 00:54:58,600
Speaker 1: Cleveland Brown, Uh, that's a whole another discussion. Articles in

1113
00:54:58,640 --> 00:55:01,720
Speaker 1: New York Times reported that you of massages with sixty

1114
00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:04,839
Speaker 1: six different women over a seventeen month period. Does that

1115
00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:08,879
Speaker 1: number sixty six seem right to you? UM? I mean

1116
00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:13,600
Speaker 1: I can ask, I don't think so. For what men

1117
00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:16,520
Speaker 1: my attorneys went through. But at the same time, you know,

1118
00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:18,719
Speaker 1: that's a that's more of a legal question that I

1119
00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:22,640
Speaker 1: can't really get into details about. Um, so you probably

1120
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:26,279
Speaker 1: have to ask my attorneys and things like that to confirm.

1121
00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:29,560
Speaker 1: You said that you had never disrespected a woman in

1122
00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:31,480
Speaker 1: your life and that you had no regrets about anything

1123
00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:34,359
Speaker 1: you did during these massage sessions. Do you still stand

1124
00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:37,440
Speaker 1: by that statement? I think yeah, I think that question,

1125
00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:40,120
Speaker 1: um kind of you know, triggered a lot of people,

1126
00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:42,960
Speaker 1: not just women in general, but a lot of people

1127
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:45,719
Speaker 1: from this you know, in the lead, from women to

1128
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:47,759
Speaker 1: two males and things like that. And what I was

1129
00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:51,920
Speaker 1: saying is, yes, I never assaulted, disrespected, or harassed anyone.

1130
00:55:52,239 --> 00:55:55,200
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I do understand that I

1131
00:55:55,239 --> 00:55:57,480
Speaker 1: do have regrets as far as the impact that is

1132
00:55:57,520 --> 00:56:01,319
Speaker 1: half on the community and people outside just myself, you know,

1133
00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:04,319
Speaker 1: and that includes my family, That includes this organization, that

1134
00:56:04,320 --> 00:56:06,640
Speaker 1: includes my teammates in this locker room that have to

1135
00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:09,600
Speaker 1: answer to these questions, that includes you know, the fan

1136
00:56:09,640 --> 00:56:12,960
Speaker 1: base of the Cleveland Browns, that includes males, females, everyone

1137
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:16,359
Speaker 1: across the world. You know. So, um, that's one thing

1138
00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:19,040
Speaker 1: I do regret is the impact that has have triggered

1139
00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:22,200
Speaker 1: on so many people, and yeah, it's it's tough to

1140
00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:25,239
Speaker 1: have to, you know, do it. But you don't have

1141
00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:27,440
Speaker 1: any regrets but anything that you've actually done, you know,

1142
00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:29,759
Speaker 1: like I said, I never assaulted anyone, or I never

1143
00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:32,920
Speaker 1: harassed anyone, or never disuspected anyone. I never forced anyone

1144
00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:35,160
Speaker 1: to do anything. What do you say to your teammates

1145
00:56:35,160 --> 00:56:37,800
Speaker 1: and just talk to the impact that all these allegations

1146
00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:42,320
Speaker 1: have had one room, How do you get these guys trust?

1147
00:56:43,680 --> 00:56:46,800
Speaker 1: And when all these things are outloving, I just be myself.

1148
00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:49,600
Speaker 1: I come in here with my head. Hell ha, I

1149
00:56:49,719 --> 00:56:51,520
Speaker 1: come in here. If any one of those guys need

1150
00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:54,200
Speaker 1: to ask questions, are they have any concerns, they know

1151
00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:56,040
Speaker 1: they can come to my locker and ask me. But

1152
00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:57,919
Speaker 1: for ever since I walked in here, from day one,

1153
00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:00,440
Speaker 1: these guys have ratheried around me and so warded me.

1154
00:57:00,800 --> 00:57:04,360
Speaker 1: And if anything popped up, they questions have been asked

1155
00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:06,880
Speaker 1: and I answered them truthfully. And outside of that, we

1156
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:08,719
Speaker 1: come in here, we work. We try to be the

1157
00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:10,719
Speaker 1: best Cleveland Brown that we can be, best teammate we

1158
00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:12,480
Speaker 1: can be, and we've had a lot of fun to

1159
00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:14,640
Speaker 1: getting to know each other, and especially on the trip

1160
00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:17,560
Speaker 1: to the Bahamas. That was awesome. So, uh these guys

1161
00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:20,040
Speaker 1: have also, you know, came behind me and supported me.

1162
00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:24,800
Speaker 1: Have you dealt emotionally with the constant barrage of one

1163
00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:27,880
Speaker 1: lossuit after another? And HBO special in the New York

1164
00:57:27,880 --> 00:57:31,080
Speaker 1: Times article how are you holding up emotionally? And what

1165
00:57:31,200 --> 00:57:34,480
Speaker 1: might you do between mini camp and training camp to

1166
00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:39,080
Speaker 1: kind of take care of yourself or whatever? Yes, ma'am, Um,

1167
00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:42,560
Speaker 1: I think it's been It's been a long uh year

1168
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:45,960
Speaker 1: and a half, I can say that, um personally and

1169
00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:49,520
Speaker 1: and just it's been tough. And since I've came here

1170
00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:52,080
Speaker 1: and been and became a Cleveland Brown, I've been able

1171
00:57:52,160 --> 00:57:55,360
Speaker 1: to you know, uh use all the resources that the

1172
00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:58,880
Speaker 1: that this organization have and been able to you know,

1173
00:57:59,040 --> 00:58:02,120
Speaker 1: start you know, using counseling and talking with someone just

1174
00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:04,120
Speaker 1: to make sure that my mental is straight and uh

1175
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:05,960
Speaker 1: so I can be prepared to walk on this field

1176
00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:07,920
Speaker 1: and be as sharp as I possibly can. And I'm

1177
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:09,959
Speaker 1: going to continue to do that and be the best

1178
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:13,959
Speaker 1: person and grow as an individual, grow as a human being,

1179
00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:16,280
Speaker 1: and just be able to be the best citizen, best

1180
00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:19,640
Speaker 1: person that I can be outside this field. Then also

1181
00:58:19,680 --> 00:58:21,040
Speaker 1: when I walk in this build and be the best

1182
00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:25,960
Speaker 1: teammate and player that I could be. Elimination is obviously

1183
00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:28,800
Speaker 1: not up to you on both sides have agreed to,

1184
00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:32,000
Speaker 1: you know, do the civil proceedings next year. But if

1185
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:34,440
Speaker 1: for some reason and it's longer than you would expect

1186
00:58:34,520 --> 00:58:36,840
Speaker 1: or think is fair. Um, do you think that you

1187
00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:40,080
Speaker 1: guys would reconsider maybe trying to push it back to

1188
00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:42,960
Speaker 1: this year, because it would really be no point in

1189
00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:46,200
Speaker 1: and waiting if hypothetically in that situation just for because

1190
00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:47,840
Speaker 1: you say you want to clear your name and you

1191
00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:50,000
Speaker 1: would be in a position to maybe do that sooner.

1192
00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:53,480
Speaker 1: Na Um, I'm not sure really, you know, like I said,

1193
00:58:53,480 --> 00:58:55,280
Speaker 1: when it comes down to the lead and their decision,

1194
00:58:55,920 --> 00:58:58,000
Speaker 1: we have to respect that and let them do their

1195
00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:01,080
Speaker 1: process and finish their investigation and court. And like I

1196
00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:03,200
Speaker 1: said before, I've talked to though, talked to the lead,

1197
00:59:03,520 --> 00:59:05,840
Speaker 1: and I've been honest and told him truthfully of every

1198
00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:08,560
Speaker 1: question that they asked. So after I can't really have

1199
00:59:08,600 --> 00:59:11,680
Speaker 1: no control on that. And then whatever this decision come,

1200
00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:13,320
Speaker 1: then I feel like that's the next step for this

1201
00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:18,360
Speaker 1: organization in this league. One last question it's possible are

1202
00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:21,840
Speaker 1: now what would it take to subtle East? Like I said,

1203
00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:23,360
Speaker 1: I just want to clear my name and be able

1204
00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:26,000
Speaker 1: to tell let the facts and the legal, uh, legal

1205
00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:29,840
Speaker 1: procedures continue to play out. Um So right now, that's

1206
00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:31,760
Speaker 1: what that's all I'm doing is is want to clear

1207
00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:34,320
Speaker 1: my name and be able to let all the facts

1208
00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:36,120
Speaker 1: come out in the court of law and be able

1209
00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:38,520
Speaker 1: to focus on that. All right, that's it. Yeah, since

1210
00:59:38,560 --> 00:59:41,480
Speaker 1: this all began, what's different about the Sean now compared

1211
00:59:41,520 --> 00:59:43,880
Speaker 1: to when this all began? How have you changed? How

1212
00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:48,600
Speaker 1: have you changed? Just being able to focus on myself

1213
00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:50,760
Speaker 1: a little bit and just figure out, you know, how

1214
00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:52,280
Speaker 1: I can be the best human being. I can be

1215
00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:54,080
Speaker 1: best team man, I could be the best son, I

1216
00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:56,000
Speaker 1: can be the best friend I can be, and just

1217
00:59:56,040 --> 00:59:58,240
Speaker 1: focus on that and just having you know, smile on

1218
00:59:58,280 --> 01:00:00,080
Speaker 1: my face, walk with my head hell high because I

1219
01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:02,200
Speaker 1: know who I really am, and just being the best

1220
01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:04,440
Speaker 1: you know, citizen I could be in this community. And

1221
01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:07,520
Speaker 1: from like I said before, it's been awesome, uh to

1222
01:00:07,560 --> 01:00:08,960
Speaker 1: be able to get out in the community and go

1223
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:11,520
Speaker 1: to restaurants. Uh. It was one instance where I went

1224
01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:14,160
Speaker 1: to the movies with with my girlfriend and uh it

1225
01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:17,440
Speaker 1: was a group of families, probably thirty and they you know,

1226
01:00:17,480 --> 01:00:19,520
Speaker 1: bought us popcorn and divided us to a movie. So

1227
01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:21,360
Speaker 1: I thought that was pretty awesome to be able to

1228
01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:23,320
Speaker 1: get out and let people really know who I really am.

1229
01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:26,479
Speaker 1: So um, that's been you know. My focus is really

1230
01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:28,920
Speaker 1: just focusing on you know, de Shan Watson and being

1231
01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:31,200
Speaker 1: the best person I could be. All right, Coming up next,

1232
01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:33,080

1238
01:00:44,240 --> 01:00:46,720
Speaker 1: to listen to Cleveland Bronze Daily on esp and Cleveland

Speaker 1: Cleveland Brown. So day want a minicamp practice in the books,

1243
01:01:36,360 --> 01:01:38,440
Speaker 1: we went over so over the highlights talk to off

1244
01:01:38,440 --> 01:01:40,040
Speaker 1: the top of the hour. Top of the show, rather

1245
01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:43,360
Speaker 1: about this defense and how impressive it is what we're

1246
01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:45,480
Speaker 1: seeing from the offense. I think the keyword with this

1247
01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:47,840
Speaker 1: football team you know, when it is all out there

1248
01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:51,640
Speaker 1: on the field, both sides of the ball is versatility. Offensively,

1249
01:01:51,840 --> 01:01:54,120
Speaker 1: you're going to be used every inch of the field

1250
01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:57,200
Speaker 1: to stress defenses on a play and play out basis.

1251
01:01:57,240 --> 01:01:58,800
Speaker 1: You're gonna be able to throw the ball when everybody

1252
01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:01,360
Speaker 1: knows you're gonna throw the ball. And on the other side, defensively,

1253
01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:03,959
Speaker 1: you're gonna be able to cover every inch of grass

1254
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:06,360
Speaker 1: or at least your best position to. That is the

1255
01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:07,800
Speaker 1: word to me when I think of this team and

1256
01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:09,920
Speaker 1: you see it on the field, you see the versatility

1257
01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:14,040
Speaker 1: both offensively and defensively. You can do anything that you

1258
01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:16,280
Speaker 1: want or anything that is asked of an offense or

1259
01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:18,480
Speaker 1: defense in the NFL. And I think that's what's exciting

1260
01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:20,480
Speaker 1: about the team that's been assembled. And I think that's

1261
01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:22,760
Speaker 1: what Andrew Berry and and Paul de Podesta and Kevin

1262
01:02:22,760 --> 01:02:24,800
Speaker 1: Sefanski why they have done such a good job, and

1263
01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:27,240
Speaker 1: Glenn Cooked and Sagony, you know, everybody involved on the

1264
01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:29,440
Speaker 1: personnel side, they've done such a good job of putting

1265
01:02:29,480 --> 01:02:31,600
Speaker 1: together a roster that is equipped to play in the

1266
01:02:31,640 --> 01:02:36,160
Speaker 1: modern NFL. And that's speed, length, versatility, positionless almost just

1267
01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:38,480
Speaker 1: getting your best athletes on the field as the game

1268
01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:40,560
Speaker 1: gets more spread out like the college game, you need

1269
01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:42,720
Speaker 1: that on both sides of the ball. You needed offensively

1270
01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:44,320
Speaker 1: to be able to stress these defenses, and then you

1271
01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:46,520
Speaker 1: need defensively to be able to match up with them

1272
01:02:46,520 --> 01:02:48,480
Speaker 1: and to handle the modern offenses and the speed that

1273
01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:50,720
Speaker 1: you're going to see from them. So I think it's

1274
01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:55,680
Speaker 1: a great, great situation from a roster building standpoint. The

1275
01:02:55,680 --> 01:02:57,680
Speaker 1: Brown has done a great job in terms of identifying

1276
01:02:57,680 --> 01:02:59,640
Speaker 1: the kind of players that they want acquiring them. And

1277
01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:01,880
Speaker 1: then now you know, you look at a guy like

1278
01:03:01,960 --> 01:03:05,960
Speaker 1: Jacob Phillips, huge lynch pin, I think can he stay healthy?

1279
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:08,320
Speaker 1: If yes, I think the sky's the limit. But we

1280
01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:11,000
Speaker 1: have a Anthony Walker Jr. Was our leading tackler a

1281
01:03:11,040 --> 01:03:13,080
Speaker 1: year ago. Veteran can do it all for you. So

1282
01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:15,720
Speaker 1: you have that insurance. And I think that's the thing

1283
01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:18,160
Speaker 1: about this roster is that it's not paper thin. You've

1284
01:03:18,200 --> 01:03:21,360
Speaker 1: got depth at the majority of places that you really

1285
01:03:21,400 --> 01:03:23,560
Speaker 1: want to feel like you have depth. And you know

1286
01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:26,600
Speaker 1: in safety or three deep there for rich account continues

1287
01:03:26,640 --> 01:03:28,440
Speaker 1: to play the way that he has. You are at

1288
01:03:28,440 --> 01:03:32,320
Speaker 1: the cornerback position. You know, a legitimate five deep. Maybe

1289
01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:34,440
Speaker 1: even they like herb Miller, so maybe even six, but

1290
01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:37,400
Speaker 1: definitely five deep. And so it's a roster that was

1291
01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:39,800
Speaker 1: built to be flexible. It was a roster that was

1292
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:44,680
Speaker 1: built to give schematic advantages and and also allow little

1293
01:03:44,800 --> 01:03:47,160
Speaker 1: variations because so many people, as you pointed out so

1294
01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:49,200
Speaker 1: many times with the safeties and some of the dbs

1295
01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:51,080
Speaker 1: and even the linebackers, so many of them are built

1296
01:03:51,120 --> 01:03:53,320
Speaker 1: the same and so they can do a lot of

1297
01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:55,360
Speaker 1: the same things, and so you have the ability to

1298
01:03:55,360 --> 01:03:58,440
Speaker 1: disguise what you're doing. And if you can do that

1299
01:03:58,520 --> 01:04:00,720
Speaker 1: week to week, uh would set sum to me? I

1300
01:04:00,720 --> 01:04:04,040
Speaker 1: thought was really interesting said, my goal is a defensive

1301
01:04:04,080 --> 01:04:07,040
Speaker 1: coordinator is to make sure that I force a quarterback

1302
01:04:07,080 --> 01:04:09,400
Speaker 1: to beat me on a Sunday and not to have

1303
01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:12,480
Speaker 1: a coordinator beat me during the week. And what he

1304
01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:14,120
Speaker 1: meant by that is that he is able to be

1305
01:04:14,320 --> 01:04:18,840
Speaker 1: versatile enough and have enough disguise and deception and variation

1306
01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:21,600
Speaker 1: in what he wants to do so that it takes

1307
01:04:21,600 --> 01:04:24,440
Speaker 1: a quarterback to think for a little bit. Maybe you

1308
01:04:24,440 --> 01:04:26,360
Speaker 1: get a big playoff of that extra beat of thinking,

1309
01:04:26,360 --> 01:04:28,440
Speaker 1: but have to adjust to that and overcome it as

1310
01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:31,800
Speaker 1: opposed to being out schemed. And I think that it's

1311
01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:33,480
Speaker 1: It's a simple concept, but I think it's also a

1312
01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:37,040
Speaker 1: very good one, and I think our personnel allows for

1313
01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:39,520
Speaker 1: us to have the kind of flexibility that will allow

1314
01:04:39,640 --> 01:04:42,080
Speaker 1: Joe Woods to be able to do that consistently this year.

1315
01:04:42,400 --> 01:04:43,920
Speaker 1: It struck me as you you were going through some

1316
01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:46,880
Speaker 1: of the highlights, they're so eloquently used you oftentimes do.

1317
01:04:46,960 --> 01:04:48,800
Speaker 1: My friend, as you mentioned, we we in this break.

1318
01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:51,720
Speaker 1: Can you talk about Jacob Phillips. Earlier today you talked

1319
01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:55,320
Speaker 1: about Jordan Elliott, we talked about Nick Harris. Obviously it's

1320
01:04:55,320 --> 01:04:57,760
Speaker 1: center stepping in there um and and now I think

1321
01:04:57,760 --> 01:05:00,240
Speaker 1: of this year, potentially this is what Jerome four, you

1322
01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:03,000
Speaker 1: think about deernss Johnson. These are guys who have been

1323
01:05:03,080 --> 01:05:06,000
Speaker 1: in the program for a while, and it's not just

1324
01:05:06,120 --> 01:05:09,920
Speaker 1: identifying talent, it's also developing it while it's on your roster,

1325
01:05:10,080 --> 01:05:14,320
Speaker 1: so that when opportunity is ready, you are. And these

1326
01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:16,400
Speaker 1: guys have been in this program for a while now.

1327
01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:19,480
Speaker 1: These are mid round picks that have been developed into

1328
01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:22,560
Speaker 1: now being contributors. That's the mark of a truly great

1329
01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:25,440
Speaker 1: organization is that it's not just your ones and twos

1330
01:05:25,480 --> 01:05:27,280
Speaker 1: that hit, it's your threes. R four is your fives,

1331
01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:29,520
Speaker 1: or six. Is you get those guys that can hit,

1332
01:05:29,560 --> 01:05:32,200
Speaker 1: and those guys are riddled all over this roster. That's

1333
01:05:32,200 --> 01:05:35,680
Speaker 1: what allows for you to maintain success because you need

1334
01:05:35,720 --> 01:05:37,919
Speaker 1: to otherwise you can't do it, can't do really any

1335
01:05:37,920 --> 01:05:40,240
Speaker 1: other way. You can go just from the defensive side

1336
01:05:40,280 --> 01:05:43,120
Speaker 1: of things, right on the on the exterior of your

1337
01:05:43,160 --> 01:05:46,400
Speaker 1: defensive line. You know, you're hoping Alex Wright comes through.

1338
01:05:46,440 --> 01:05:48,680
Speaker 1: He's a third round pick. And and that's not a

1339
01:05:48,680 --> 01:05:51,439
Speaker 1: first store a second again, that's a third round pick.

1340
01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:53,680
Speaker 1: You go to the interior, Jordan Elliott, third round pick,

1341
01:05:53,760 --> 01:05:57,040
Speaker 1: togy I, fourth round pick, perry On Winfrey, fourth round pick.

1342
01:05:57,600 --> 01:06:00,040
Speaker 1: Your linebackers Tacky was a third round pick. Jake of

1343
01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:03,400
Speaker 1: Phillips was the third round pick in your organization, and

1344
01:06:03,440 --> 01:06:05,240
Speaker 1: that you've been able to develop them. A guy like

1345
01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:07,560
Speaker 1: Tony Fields, a fifth round pick from a year ago,

1346
01:06:07,640 --> 01:06:09,439
Speaker 1: is he ready to take a step forward and play

1347
01:06:09,480 --> 01:06:12,240
Speaker 1: special teams for you? Be that fifth linebacker. Willie Harvey Jr.

1348
01:06:12,280 --> 01:06:13,680
Speaker 1: Has been in your program for a while as an

1349
01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:16,600
Speaker 1: underrafted free agent. Is he somebody that can have an impact?

1350
01:06:16,600 --> 01:06:18,120
Speaker 1: And then you go to the back end of the defense.

1351
01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:20,680
Speaker 1: You know Grant was a second round pick, but you've

1352
01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:22,480
Speaker 1: developed him and now it looks like he's on the

1353
01:06:22,480 --> 01:06:24,600
Speaker 1: press piss of being a star. Richly Count a sixth

1354
01:06:24,640 --> 01:06:26,960
Speaker 1: round pick for you. There you go on the offense.

1355
01:06:27,200 --> 01:06:28,600
Speaker 1: Then you think about the fact that you know, Nick

1356
01:06:28,680 --> 01:06:31,919
Speaker 1: Chubb was the second round pick. Dearnesst underrafted drone forward

1357
01:06:31,960 --> 01:06:35,200
Speaker 1: fifth round this year. Donovan Peoples Jones was a sixth

1358
01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:38,080
Speaker 1: round pick for you that you're getting quality production out of.

1359
01:06:38,200 --> 01:06:40,840
Speaker 1: You know, Anthony Schwartz a third round pick. Again, Nick

1360
01:06:40,880 --> 01:06:42,720
Speaker 1: Harris was a fifth round pick that you got from

1361
01:06:42,760 --> 01:06:45,920
Speaker 1: moving back a few spots and still got Grant Delpit

1362
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:47,560
Speaker 1: and then you were able to get Nick Harris basically

1363
01:06:47,600 --> 01:06:50,280
Speaker 1: for free, and he's coming through. You know, James Hudson's

1364
01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:52,720
Speaker 1: a guy they want to continue to develop. A fourth

1365
01:06:52,800 --> 01:06:56,680
Speaker 1: rounder attackle hands and done. Guys the identified as undrafted

1366
01:06:56,680 --> 01:06:59,000
Speaker 1: free agents are picked up from around other teams around

1367
01:06:59,040 --> 01:07:01,000
Speaker 1: the league and brought them into the fold and I

1368
01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:04,320
Speaker 1: coached them up into being, you know, starting level performers.

1369
01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:06,840
Speaker 1: And so you're exactly right, you have to be able

1370
01:07:06,880 --> 01:07:08,960
Speaker 1: to do that hit. Harrison Bryant was a fourth round

1371
01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:12,640
Speaker 1: pick at the tight end position. So being able to

1372
01:07:12,680 --> 01:07:15,840
Speaker 1: get production from guys picked and rounds three, four, or five, six, seven,

1373
01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:20,200
Speaker 1: which we've listed. That's huge them getting better. Well, that's

1374
01:07:20,200 --> 01:07:22,640
Speaker 1: because we have developed, right they're developed. We have great

1375
01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:25,680
Speaker 1: position coaching. You talk to anybody being in the league,

1376
01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:27,800
Speaker 1: and we talked so much attention is given to coordinators

1377
01:07:27,800 --> 01:07:29,760
Speaker 1: and head coaches and all of that, and rightfully so.

1378
01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:34,920
Speaker 1: But the great position coaches develop the players underneath them.

1379
01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:37,240
Speaker 1: So you get a fourth round pick, a fifth round pick,

1380
01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:39,080
Speaker 1: a sixth round pick. You developed them, and in a

1381
01:07:39,120 --> 01:07:41,320
Speaker 1: couple of years they're a starter. It's a longer play

1382
01:07:41,680 --> 01:07:45,160
Speaker 1: it is. It gives you such a stable roster versus

1383
01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:46,880
Speaker 1: that when you have to fill out the bottom of

1384
01:07:46,920 --> 01:07:49,680
Speaker 1: the roster through free agency through cuts. We don't have

1385
01:07:49,720 --> 01:07:52,080
Speaker 1: to do that like it's set. It's just a matter

1386
01:07:52,160 --> 01:07:54,320
Speaker 1: of do you go from you And this is what

1387
01:07:54,400 --> 01:07:55,880
Speaker 1: we're saying with these guys. You go from guys who

1388
01:07:55,920 --> 01:07:59,280
Speaker 1: are bottom of the roster, mid low round picks, two starters,

1389
01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:04,920
Speaker 1: gotten better here, not playing significant roles, and now ready

1390
01:08:04,960 --> 01:08:07,720
Speaker 1: for significant roles. That's what the great organizations do. You've

1391
01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:08,960
Speaker 1: got to you've got to hit on some of those

1392
01:08:08,960 --> 01:08:10,959
Speaker 1: and some undraft as we talked about, you know, guy

1393
01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:13,200
Speaker 1: like a J. Green, who came in was very productive

1394
01:08:13,280 --> 01:08:15,880
Speaker 1: Oklahoma State, and and he has grown and been groomed

1395
01:08:15,880 --> 01:08:18,040
Speaker 1: in this system. And you know, he's the last Cleveland

1396
01:08:18,040 --> 01:08:20,800
Speaker 1: Brownd ever intercept Ben Roethlisberger, as he did in that

1397
01:08:20,840 --> 01:08:23,599
Speaker 1: game on Monday Night. So yeah, there, I think there

1398
01:08:23,640 --> 01:08:25,599
Speaker 1: are good examples. I think your point is well taken.

1399
01:08:25,640 --> 01:08:29,000
Speaker 1: You've got some real investments at premium spots, obviously, but

1400
01:08:29,080 --> 01:08:31,880
Speaker 1: at the same time you have been able to identify

1401
01:08:31,960 --> 01:08:33,439
Speaker 1: guys and have them grow. I mean, look at the

1402
01:08:33,479 --> 01:08:35,200
Speaker 1: way Why It tell Her. I mean Why It Teller

1403
01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:38,599
Speaker 1: was traded to us by the Bills for not much

1404
01:08:38,640 --> 01:08:41,240
Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken, a late round pick, just a

1405
01:08:41,320 --> 01:08:43,639
Speaker 1: kind of swap there, and you've got why It Teller

1406
01:08:43,680 --> 01:08:46,280
Speaker 1: and now he's you know, an all pro. So those

1407
01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:49,920
Speaker 1: are the types of moves that you make that change

1408
01:08:49,920 --> 01:08:51,960
Speaker 1: a franchise. And it is to your very much to

1409
01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:55,360
Speaker 1: your point, it's the development of those guys that allows

1410
01:08:55,439 --> 01:08:57,519
Speaker 1: your franchise to be good. You can't have a team

1411
01:08:57,560 --> 01:08:59,600
Speaker 1: of all first round picks, and quite frankly, one of

1412
01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:01,120
Speaker 1: the things it as a Browns fan you have to

1413
01:09:01,160 --> 01:09:03,880
Speaker 1: feel better about than you would in some other organizations

1414
01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:05,720
Speaker 1: that don't have as good of track records is that

1415
01:09:06,120 --> 01:09:08,439
Speaker 1: you have the ability over the next We've already gone

1416
01:09:08,479 --> 01:09:10,280
Speaker 1: one season without but you're gonna have two more without

1417
01:09:10,320 --> 01:09:12,960
Speaker 1: a first round pick. And yet you know, you feel

1418
01:09:12,960 --> 01:09:16,000
Speaker 1: pretty good about this draft class already, and you feel

1419
01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:19,320
Speaker 1: pretty good about your ability to maintain your ability to

1420
01:09:19,400 --> 01:09:22,720
Speaker 1: add quality players in the draft in the coming years,

1421
01:09:22,760 --> 01:09:24,400
Speaker 1: even though you have two more without a first rounder.

1422
01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:27,639
Speaker 1: So it when you watch this team, when you come

1423
01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:29,360
Speaker 1: out of your training campile, you're gonna see the team

1424
01:09:29,360 --> 01:09:31,720
Speaker 1: that it really it stands out, how talented it is,

1425
01:09:31,720 --> 01:09:33,760
Speaker 1: how athletic it is, and how deep it is. I

1426
01:09:33,800 --> 01:09:36,519
Speaker 1: think it's some very important spots it is. And you

1427
01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:38,800
Speaker 1: go through the names and that that that bears out.

1428
01:09:39,280 --> 01:09:41,040
Speaker 1: Coming up next, the guy we haven't seen for a while,

1429
01:09:41,040 --> 01:09:43,320

1465
01:11:27,920 --> 01:11:30,760
Speaker 1: some of the plays down out there. But honestly, it's

1466
01:11:30,760 --> 01:11:32,840
Speaker 1: just to be around the guys and uh, you know,

Speaker 1: and just being around everybody and having a good, good

1472
01:11:45,160 --> 01:11:47,040
Speaker 1: mini camp. What's it gonna be like for you? You're

1473
01:11:47,080 --> 01:11:48,880
Speaker 1: one of the guys who has had a normal mini

1474
01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:51,400
Speaker 1: camp here in in Burial A lot of these guys, haven't,

1475
01:11:51,520 --> 01:11:53,360
Speaker 1: you know, to get to have kind of that normal

1476
01:11:53,400 --> 01:11:56,479
Speaker 1: off season again. Yeah, it's Uh, you know, COVID's kind

1477
01:11:56,479 --> 01:11:58,280
Speaker 1: of wrecked the last two off seasons. So to have

1478
01:11:58,439 --> 01:12:01,000
Speaker 1: a normal mini camp and to be back you know, um,

1479
01:12:01,080 --> 01:12:02,640
Speaker 1: you know, I think coach of Fancy's actually you know,

1480
01:12:02,720 --> 01:12:04,479
Speaker 1: changing it up a little bit even from the norm.

1481
01:12:04,560 --> 01:12:06,600
Speaker 1: So we're gonna have a few different practice sites and

1482
01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:08,720
Speaker 1: things like that. But it's a good time. I think.

1483
01:12:08,760 --> 01:12:10,639
Speaker 1: I think it's good to get back into flow things

1484
01:12:10,640 --> 01:12:13,360
Speaker 1: for guys that are you know, they can refocus and

1485
01:12:13,360 --> 01:12:15,280
Speaker 1: and then take that four or five week break and

1486
01:12:15,439 --> 01:12:17,720
Speaker 1: really you're ready for training camp. So you mentioned you

1487
01:12:17,760 --> 01:12:19,439
Speaker 1: went to the Bahamas. How wasn't Oh, it was a

1488
01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:21,040
Speaker 1: great time. Uh, you know, we had a lot of guys.

1489
01:12:21,080 --> 01:12:23,360
Speaker 1: I think it was like twenty eight you know, offensive players,

1490
01:12:23,360 --> 01:12:25,240
Speaker 1: which is which is a good amount of guys. And

1491
01:12:25,280 --> 01:12:26,800
Speaker 1: we we got some work in, we had some fun,

1492
01:12:27,240 --> 01:12:28,800
Speaker 1: you know, it was it was a cool trip. The

1493
01:12:28,840 --> 01:12:30,519
Speaker 1: Sean really took care of us out there, So it

1494
01:12:30,600 --> 01:12:32,599
Speaker 1: was fun to be out there. And uh, and really

1495
01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:34,120
Speaker 1: that that's when you get to know the guys, you know.

1496
01:12:34,160 --> 01:12:35,759
Speaker 1: I think you you talk to guys that like retiring,

1497
01:12:35,800 --> 01:12:37,439
Speaker 1: are away from the game. The best part is just

1498
01:12:37,439 --> 01:12:39,000
Speaker 1: being around the guys, being in the locker room being

1499
01:12:39,000 --> 01:12:40,920
Speaker 1: those things and to do that in a place like that,

1500
01:12:41,040 --> 01:12:43,360
Speaker 1: it was it was pretty cool. So you haven't seen

1501
01:12:43,439 --> 01:12:45,120
Speaker 1: him on the field. Yeah, I'm sure you've been watching tapes.

1502
01:12:45,120 --> 01:12:46,599
Speaker 1: So you've seen the tape of the practice. You know

1503
01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:48,680
Speaker 1: what he's capable of. But what are your impressions of

1504
01:12:48,760 --> 01:12:50,680
Speaker 1: him just off the field as a leader and the

1505
01:12:50,680 --> 01:12:52,800
Speaker 1: guy who's gonna be you know, running this offense. Yeah,

1506
01:12:52,840 --> 01:12:55,040
Speaker 1: you know my interactions. We've texted a bunch and uh,

1507
01:12:55,080 --> 01:12:57,120
Speaker 1: you know the trip to the Bahamas, and obviously I've

1508
01:12:57,160 --> 01:12:59,680
Speaker 1: watched film and you know, seen him play, been at

1509
01:12:59,680 --> 01:13:01,439
Speaker 1: the Pro all with him, you know, once or twice,

1510
01:13:01,520 --> 01:13:03,479
Speaker 1: and uh, he's a gammer. You know. He goes out

1511
01:13:03,520 --> 01:13:05,759
Speaker 1: on the field and he he makes place for his teammates.

1512
01:13:05,760 --> 01:13:07,280
Speaker 1: He he makes the guys around him better and he

1513
01:13:07,600 --> 01:13:09,600
Speaker 1: he works hard and um, you know it's what you

1514
01:13:09,600 --> 01:13:11,599
Speaker 1: can ask in a in a quarterback. And he's gonna

1515
01:13:11,640 --> 01:13:14,120
Speaker 1: you know, hold himself accountable and hold the rest of

1516
01:13:14,120 --> 01:13:16,640
Speaker 1: the guys accountable to you know, execute the offense. Is

1517
01:13:16,640 --> 01:13:18,840
Speaker 1: that one of your favorite flexes to drop you We've

1518
01:13:18,880 --> 01:13:20,920
Speaker 1: we've we've been together at the Pro Bowl. No big deal,

1519
01:13:21,479 --> 01:13:23,679
Speaker 1: you know, honestly, it's just easy, you know. It's like, yeah,

1520
01:13:23,680 --> 01:13:25,599
Speaker 1: I know him, you know, I've played with him, you know,

1521
01:13:25,720 --> 01:13:27,120
Speaker 1: and and so you throw it out there. But it's

1522
01:13:27,120 --> 01:13:28,559
Speaker 1: it's a good one to have in the back pocket.

1523
01:13:28,560 --> 01:13:30,639
Speaker 1: It's right out that Joe Thomas playbook. There's no doubt

1524
01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:33,800
Speaker 1: about it, exactly. You learned from the best, you know, absolutely,

1525
01:13:33,840 --> 01:13:36,000
Speaker 1: So here you guys are, are you kind of excited

1526
01:13:36,040 --> 01:13:37,880
Speaker 1: to see what the evolution is now when you've got

1527
01:13:37,880 --> 01:13:39,439
Speaker 1: a guy like the Sean where you guys are gonna

1528
01:13:39,439 --> 01:13:41,240
Speaker 1: be able to probably throw the football a little bit

1529
01:13:41,280 --> 01:13:43,000
Speaker 1: more than we have in the past. Are you excited

1530
01:13:43,040 --> 01:13:45,080
Speaker 1: for that? Yeah, it would be interesting to see, you know, what,

1531
01:13:45,080 --> 01:13:46,920
Speaker 1: what type of wrinkles we put in the offense and

1532
01:13:46,920 --> 01:13:49,080
Speaker 1: and how it transforms because we know what you know,

1533
01:13:49,120 --> 01:13:50,640
Speaker 1: Coach of Fancy wants to do. We want to run

1534
01:13:50,680 --> 01:13:52,400
Speaker 1: the ball into play action. But when you have a

1535
01:13:52,479 --> 01:13:54,280
Speaker 1: dynamic guy back there that can you know, run the

1536
01:13:54,280 --> 01:13:56,360
Speaker 1: ball a little bit more and and take some shots

1537
01:13:56,400 --> 01:13:58,599
Speaker 1: like he'll, it'll be interesting to see, you know, where

1538
01:13:58,640 --> 01:14:00,360
Speaker 1: we take it for the first time in a long time.

1539
01:14:00,360 --> 01:14:02,719
Speaker 1: When you look to your right, you will not see J. C. Tredder.

1540
01:14:02,760 --> 01:14:04,800
Speaker 1: He was an absolute iron man for this franchise, a

1541
01:14:04,840 --> 01:14:07,519
Speaker 1: tremendous player. Now Nick Harris is going to get a shot.

1542
01:14:07,520 --> 01:14:09,320
Speaker 1: And we saw Nick against Green Bay last year, played

1543
01:14:09,320 --> 01:14:11,479
Speaker 1: phenomenally well in that game. What is your kind of

1544
01:14:11,520 --> 01:14:13,599
Speaker 1: your impressions of Nick so far? And are you excited

1545
01:14:13,600 --> 01:14:15,000
Speaker 1: to get to I know you don't want to have

1546
01:14:15,040 --> 01:14:16,960
Speaker 1: somebody new, but that's the way this business works. And

1547
01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:19,320
Speaker 1: so now Nick gets the opportunity. Yeah, I mean, you know,

1548
01:14:19,439 --> 01:14:21,360
Speaker 1: j C is my guy. He he gave it all

1549
01:14:21,360 --> 01:14:23,800
Speaker 1: and and you know he he worked hard for this

1550
01:14:23,840 --> 01:14:25,720
Speaker 1: and he's you know, someone that you know, one of

1551
01:14:25,720 --> 01:14:28,000
Speaker 1: my dear friends forever. But um, you know, Nick's worked

1552
01:14:28,040 --> 01:14:29,719
Speaker 1: hard this offseason. I know he's put on some muscle

1553
01:14:29,720 --> 01:14:31,880
Speaker 1: and he's he's smart enough, he's athletic enough to to

1554
01:14:31,920 --> 01:14:33,599
Speaker 1: really know what he's doing. And I it's just he's

1555
01:14:33,600 --> 01:14:35,360
Speaker 1: honestly had the reps too. We've practiced with him a

1556
01:14:35,400 --> 01:14:37,519
Speaker 1: bunch and uh, you know, preseason and things like that.

1557
01:14:37,560 --> 01:14:39,680
Speaker 1: So I think he'll be ready to go. And you

1558
01:14:39,720 --> 01:14:42,040
Speaker 1: know he's, uh, he's excited to take the next step.

1559
01:14:42,040 --> 01:14:44,000
Speaker 1: And I know it's like a young guy when you're

1560
01:14:44,000 --> 01:14:45,439
Speaker 1: sitting behind you're like, I want to play, I want

1561
01:14:45,439 --> 01:14:46,960
Speaker 1: to play, you know, to get that opportunity. I think

1562
01:14:46,960 --> 01:14:48,400
Speaker 1: he's gonna be pretty excited to go out there and

1563
01:14:48,439 --> 01:14:51,000
Speaker 1: do it. Can you believe it's two You're still playing

1564
01:14:51,080 --> 01:14:52,880
Speaker 1: left guard for the Cleveland Browns and just kind of

1565
01:14:52,880 --> 01:14:55,519
Speaker 1: the journey that you've been on. Yeah, you know, you

1566
01:14:55,560 --> 01:14:57,519
Speaker 1: never really know how it's gonna happen. You know, you

1567
01:14:57,520 --> 01:14:59,160
Speaker 1: look back on it and you think about, you know,

1568
01:14:59,520 --> 01:15:02,559
Speaker 1: nine years is now being here and being those tender guy.

1569
01:15:02,600 --> 01:15:05,320
Speaker 1: The building is changing, everything's changing. But uh, you know,

1570
01:15:05,400 --> 01:15:07,000
Speaker 1: it's been a heck of a journey and hopefully, you know,

1571
01:15:07,479 --> 01:15:09,800
Speaker 1: we can we can cap it off with some winning

1572
01:15:09,840 --> 01:15:12,280
Speaker 1: seasons coming up. So Joel, thanks for the time. Great Sidney,

1573
01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:15,759
Speaker 1: always great seeing Joel back in the mix. And UM,

1574
01:15:16,280 --> 01:15:17,840
Speaker 1: I like that you called him out on the on

1575
01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:19,720
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl. That is a that's a half move

1576
01:15:19,760 --> 01:15:22,320
Speaker 1: I used to like, such a great flex, such a

1577
01:15:22,320 --> 01:15:24,000
Speaker 1: great us, like when you do it in front of

1578
01:15:24,080 --> 01:15:27,640
Speaker 1: j C like you would do Don j which is

1579
01:15:27,640 --> 01:15:30,240
Speaker 1: always fun because j C, quite frankly, should have been

1580
01:15:30,240 --> 01:15:33,760
Speaker 1: a lot multiple time. Really one of the more underrated guys. Um,

1581
01:15:33,880 --> 01:15:37,200
Speaker 1: Joel's Joel's job this year bring. I'm glad you asked

1582
01:15:37,240 --> 01:15:39,839
Speaker 1: him and a new you would as enormous b as yourself.

1583
01:15:40,400 --> 01:15:42,800
Speaker 1: The bringing along of Nick Harris. You want to talk,

1584
01:15:42,840 --> 01:15:45,240
Speaker 1: We talk a lot about quarterbacks being put in a

1585
01:15:45,280 --> 01:15:48,160
Speaker 1: position to succeed. I don't know that anyone in the

1586
01:15:48,240 --> 01:15:50,240
Speaker 1: league is gonna be putting a better position to succeed

1587
01:15:50,280 --> 01:15:52,719
Speaker 1: than Nick Harris with those two guards and that offensive

1588
01:15:52,720 --> 01:15:56,000
Speaker 1: line coach. If he's a pro, there ain't no better

1589
01:15:56,000 --> 01:15:57,880
Speaker 1: way to find out than with that group around him.

1590
01:15:57,960 --> 01:15:59,719
Speaker 1: And the wild thing, if you remember, is Nick harris

1591
01:15:59,760 --> 01:16:02,120
Speaker 1: Is only start, which was against Green Bay on Christmas Day.

1592
01:16:02,200 --> 01:16:04,519
Speaker 1: He didn't even have Joel to his left because Joel

1593
01:16:04,560 --> 01:16:06,360
Speaker 1: was playing left tackle that day, and so we had

1594
01:16:06,400 --> 01:16:09,519
Speaker 1: Michael Dunn. And and yet Harris turned in a brilliant performance.

1595
01:16:09,520 --> 01:16:12,400
Speaker 1: I think he was uh forty one pass blocking snaps

1596
01:16:12,439 --> 01:16:14,160
Speaker 1: on a single pressure allowed. He was great in the

1597
01:16:14,240 --> 01:16:16,759
Speaker 1: run game. His movement skills are tremendous, and he's worked

1598
01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:19,080
Speaker 1: so hard on his body. We had him in here,

1599
01:16:19,160 --> 01:16:21,960
Speaker 1: we were talking to him about, you know, just his commitment, dedication.

1600
01:16:22,680 --> 01:16:24,559
Speaker 1: There's never been a time that I've been down in

1601
01:16:24,560 --> 01:16:26,160
Speaker 1: the weight area, and I've been trying to get in

1602
01:16:26,200 --> 01:16:30,280
Speaker 1: there as much as i can. Brother, But there's every

1603
01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:32,280
Speaker 1: time that he's not down there, I mean he's he's

1604
01:16:32,280 --> 01:16:34,360
Speaker 1: working there. And it was all off season when you

1605
01:16:34,360 --> 01:16:36,000
Speaker 1: know there'll only be a couple of guys here. He

1606
01:16:36,080 --> 01:16:39,240
Speaker 1: was here every single day putting in that work because

1607
01:16:39,240 --> 01:16:41,280
Speaker 1: I think this is the opportunities waited for. And he's

1608
01:16:41,280 --> 01:16:43,240
Speaker 1: a guy that you know, you go back to Washington,

1609
01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:45,960
Speaker 1: back to back, all packed twelveth center his last two years.

1610
01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:49,599
Speaker 1: I think he allowed one pressure in two seasons. Uh

1611
01:16:49,640 --> 01:16:52,920
Speaker 1: So he is a talented guy. And and somebody who

1612
01:16:53,120 --> 01:16:55,200
Speaker 1: you know is as Bill calliantles this guy if he

1613
01:16:55,240 --> 01:16:58,160
Speaker 1: was two inches Toller, he's you know, early second round pick,

1614
01:16:58,240 --> 01:17:01,679
Speaker 1: late first round pick, but little undersized. But it works

1615
01:17:01,680 --> 01:17:04,080
Speaker 1: in our scheme because it's about movement, it's about leverage.

1616
01:17:04,120 --> 01:17:05,880
Speaker 1: He understands both of those things very well, and he's

1617
01:17:05,920 --> 01:17:07,840
Speaker 1: athletic enough to do the movement side of it. And

1618
01:17:08,200 --> 01:17:09,600
Speaker 1: so yeah, I think Nick Harris is gonna be a

1619
01:17:09,680 --> 01:17:11,960
Speaker 1: very talented guy for the Browns. And it goes back

1620
01:17:11,960 --> 01:17:13,120
Speaker 1: to your point, and you picked them up in the

1621
01:17:13,160 --> 01:17:16,840
Speaker 1: fifth round, and that allows you to lose somebody the

1622
01:17:16,880 --> 01:17:19,920
Speaker 1: ilk of a J. C. Treader. But you've got Nick Harris,

1623
01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:22,360
Speaker 1: who's member. He got all the training camp reps. He

1624
01:17:22,439 --> 01:17:24,280
Speaker 1: often got lots of reps during the week, and Joel

1625
01:17:24,280 --> 01:17:27,360
Speaker 1: alluded to that in our talk right there. So this

1626
01:17:27,400 --> 01:17:29,720
Speaker 1: is the guy who's very prepared for this opportunity has

1627
01:17:29,720 --> 01:17:32,120
Speaker 1: actually taken numerous ups. It's not like the first time

1628
01:17:32,120 --> 01:17:34,280
Speaker 1: you started taking reps in between you know why it

1629
01:17:34,320 --> 01:17:36,360
Speaker 1: and Joel was today, which would have been the first

1630
01:17:36,439 --> 01:17:40,799
Speaker 1: day this year that Joel was present. So that is helpful,

1631
01:17:40,840 --> 01:17:42,680
Speaker 1: and it goes back to your point that they've done

1632
01:17:42,680 --> 01:17:45,639
Speaker 1: a very good job crafting this roster and hitting and

1633
01:17:45,680 --> 01:17:49,040
Speaker 1: getting contributions out of guys that typically you don't get

1634
01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:51,519
Speaker 1: contributions out of. I mean, the percentages of fifth rounders

1635
01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:53,160
Speaker 1: that are starting in the league or six rounders that

1636
01:17:53,200 --> 01:17:55,360
Speaker 1: are starting in the league is very very small, and

1637
01:17:55,360 --> 01:17:58,679
Speaker 1: the Browns begun contributions from those rounds pretty regularly under

1638
01:17:58,720 --> 01:18:01,880
Speaker 1: Andrew Berry. I just saw I don't know how I

1639
01:18:01,960 --> 01:18:04,120
Speaker 1: missed this, maybe because of all the stuff that was

1640
01:18:04,160 --> 01:18:06,240
Speaker 1: happening in the lead up to the show. I just

1641
01:18:06,280 --> 01:18:09,200
Speaker 1: saw some video of Cade York kicking. Yeah, he hits

1642
01:18:09,280 --> 01:18:13,840
Speaker 1: bombs very good. I had a video of Cigaretta catching him,

1643
01:18:13,840 --> 01:18:15,840
Speaker 1: but neither one of you could see him. Sorry, green,

1644
01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:21,280
Speaker 1: just like like exist tiny, And then I actually had

1645
01:18:21,320 --> 01:18:22,960
Speaker 1: to I'm like, well, what is this? So I actually

1646
01:18:23,000 --> 01:18:26,840
Speaker 1: Downsad still to get into my files and even then

1647
01:18:27,040 --> 01:18:30,280
Speaker 1: still unacceptable. It could not tell what it was it was,

1648
01:18:30,920 --> 01:18:34,760
Speaker 1: you know, said, So I was out there today and

1649
01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:36,599
Speaker 1: I like to stand. So they went from the red

1650
01:18:36,680 --> 01:18:38,599
Speaker 1: zone seven on seven, and I like to stand kind

1651
01:18:38,600 --> 01:18:40,360
Speaker 1: of behind the ends, and I usually stand behind Jeff

1652
01:18:40,400 --> 01:18:42,000
Speaker 1: Howard because it helps me. I can hear what he's

1653
01:18:42,040 --> 01:18:43,720
Speaker 1: saying to the DBS and what he's looking at. And

1654
01:18:43,720 --> 01:18:45,200
Speaker 1: it's also a good way to kind of see the field,

1655
01:18:45,240 --> 01:18:48,519
Speaker 1: see the concepts unfold offensively and defensively. And so I

1656
01:18:48,560 --> 01:18:50,920
Speaker 1: was watching that and then they rent right from that

1657
01:18:51,040 --> 01:18:53,960
Speaker 1: to Cade your Kicking, and I think Cade went, I

1658
01:18:53,960 --> 01:18:56,080
Speaker 1: don't know how many kicks did he put up? Seven

1659
01:18:56,080 --> 01:18:58,120
Speaker 1: of eight. I think he did miss the last one,

1660
01:18:58,160 --> 01:18:59,960
Speaker 1: which was from deep and everybody's shut and holler and

1661
01:19:00,120 --> 01:19:01,800
Speaker 1: him he was pissed that he missed it. The other

1662
01:19:01,840 --> 01:19:04,320
Speaker 1: ones that were just rockets and they're all right through.

1663
01:19:04,360 --> 01:19:06,479
Speaker 1: And so Jimmy was down there and needed a little

1664
01:19:06,680 --> 01:19:08,880
Speaker 1: hand trying to to shag the balls they didn't even

1665
01:19:08,880 --> 01:19:13,880
Speaker 1: have normally. Brad's doing the good coach Tarver wasnaups, you

1666
01:19:13,920 --> 01:19:15,880
Speaker 1: have a bunch of backups today, and so I went

1667
01:19:15,920 --> 01:19:19,840
Speaker 1: back there and and you know, Kade just hits the

1668
01:19:19,840 --> 01:19:21,800
Speaker 1: ball with such force and when it comes down, it

1669
01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:25,000
Speaker 1: is coming down fast. And I had two that came

1670
01:19:25,320 --> 01:19:26,960
Speaker 1: close enough for like I wasn't gonna run and try

1671
01:19:26,960 --> 01:19:29,719
Speaker 1: to catch any no thanks, but two that came reasonably

1672
01:19:29,720 --> 01:19:31,240
Speaker 1: close to me. I went to for two. Jimmy went.

1673
01:19:31,400 --> 01:19:33,400
Speaker 1: Jimmy got his as well, and then we were throwing

1674
01:19:33,479 --> 01:19:35,280
Speaker 1: to Tarver and Tarver now that his next fine, He

1675
01:19:35,320 --> 01:19:37,240
Speaker 1: told me, yes, get he got some forty push ups

1676
01:19:37,240 --> 01:19:39,439
Speaker 1: since so he's like feeling great. He was like running

1677
01:19:39,520 --> 01:19:40,960
Speaker 1: routes for us when we were throwing the ball back

1678
01:19:40,960 --> 01:19:43,400
Speaker 1: and he was like giddy like a kid. So that

1679
01:19:43,520 --> 01:19:46,240
Speaker 1: was fun to see. But he absolutely booms it. And

1680
01:19:46,240 --> 01:19:48,479
Speaker 1: it's funny. I was talking with with Jimmy and the

1681
01:19:48,520 --> 01:19:51,280
Speaker 1: equipment guy and he said, like the way the ball

1682
01:19:51,320 --> 01:19:53,080
Speaker 1: comes down when you catches, like the way that Chase

1683
01:19:53,120 --> 01:19:54,400
Speaker 1: kicked it, It kind of like the ball go out

1684
01:19:54,400 --> 01:19:56,599
Speaker 1: and then it kind of just kind of float down.

1685
01:19:56,920 --> 01:20:01,360
Speaker 1: These are like, yeah, like just absolute Luke rockets. There's

1686
01:20:01,400 --> 01:20:04,400
Speaker 1: certain times when you've when you've seen um, whether you're

1687
01:20:04,400 --> 01:20:05,960
Speaker 1: at back in the day when you just go to

1688
01:20:05,960 --> 01:20:08,080
Speaker 1: Major League baseball games, you would hear a certain guy

1689
01:20:08,120 --> 01:20:11,600
Speaker 1: at batting practice and just sounded different. Vlad Guerrero. I

1690
01:20:11,600 --> 01:20:13,240
Speaker 1: remember at the homer and Derby like it just the

1691
01:20:13,240 --> 01:20:15,559
Speaker 1: ball off of his bat. It was, well, that's different.

1692
01:20:15,760 --> 01:20:18,799
Speaker 1: That's that was unlike the previous guy. That was different.

1693
01:20:18,880 --> 01:20:21,200
Speaker 1: That's what this looks like to me. It looks like

1694
01:20:21,240 --> 01:20:24,560
Speaker 1: it sounds different coming off his foot. It does it.

1695
01:20:24,720 --> 01:20:27,360
Speaker 1: It is different off of his foot, and it reminds me.

1696
01:20:27,400 --> 01:20:28,519
Speaker 1: The only thing that I've heard, and I talked with

1697
01:20:28,520 --> 01:20:31,679
Speaker 1: three about this was Andy Lee when he was the punter.

1698
01:20:31,800 --> 01:20:33,840
Speaker 1: When he came here the first time he punted, everyone like,

1699
01:20:34,040 --> 01:20:36,840
Speaker 1: what what does that sound? And and he does that

1700
01:20:36,880 --> 01:20:38,599
Speaker 1: as a kicker. And Andy Lee, by the way, he's

1701
01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:40,360
Speaker 1: been pretty if he can be too kicking what Andy

1702
01:20:40,400 --> 01:20:42,160
Speaker 1: Lee has been to punting, that will be wonderful thing

1703
01:20:42,200 --> 01:20:44,840
Speaker 1: for the Cleveland Browns. It's just it's a tremendous thing

1704
01:20:44,880 --> 01:20:47,080
Speaker 1: to see him on there. And it's one of those

1705
01:20:47,120 --> 01:20:49,479
Speaker 1: things that there's so much going on with this football

1706
01:20:49,479 --> 01:20:51,599
Speaker 1: team that but these little pieces and you think about

1707
01:20:51,600 --> 01:20:53,960
Speaker 1: our division and how good you have to be at

1708
01:20:53,960 --> 01:20:56,120
Speaker 1: that position to win it the best, some of the

1709
01:20:56,120 --> 01:20:57,360
Speaker 1: best in the league and then maybe the best of

1710
01:20:57,360 --> 01:20:59,400
Speaker 1: all time in our division. So you have got to

1711
01:20:59,439 --> 01:21:01,280
Speaker 1: have that. And this is you don't want to put

1712
01:21:01,280 --> 01:21:03,880
Speaker 1: this on this kid because it's different, but it feels

1713
01:21:03,920 --> 01:21:05,960
Speaker 1: like he wants it. He was like, he's very kind.

1714
01:21:06,120 --> 01:21:08,360
Speaker 1: We haven't had him in here, have we. I've talked

1715
01:21:08,360 --> 01:21:10,840
Speaker 1: to him on the rookie you meet the Rookies, which

1716
01:21:10,840 --> 01:21:14,519
Speaker 1: is probably on your dv UM. He's awesome. I wish

1717
01:21:14,520 --> 01:21:17,880
Speaker 1: one day we could get the so I wish we

1718
01:21:17,920 --> 01:21:21,439
Speaker 1: could get the full full thing with him because he

1719
01:21:21,840 --> 01:21:23,680
Speaker 1: is he's a good kid. We'll enjoy it if we

1720
01:21:23,680 --> 01:21:26,960
Speaker 1: have any's cultivating mustache right now? Okay, how's it coming in?

1721
01:21:27,080 --> 01:21:28,960
Speaker 1: Look good? Look good? I saw him yesterday and it

1722
01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:32,519
Speaker 1: was like that. As you know, is my father has

1723
01:21:32,560 --> 01:21:34,800
Speaker 1: had a mustache my whole life. Sandrow has had one

1724
01:21:34,880 --> 01:21:37,439
Speaker 1: for your whole life. The key to the mustache game

1725
01:21:37,600 --> 01:21:40,840
Speaker 1: is is to get you need it all the length

1726
01:21:40,960 --> 01:21:43,360
Speaker 1: on the top has to come all the way to

1727
01:21:43,400 --> 01:21:47,080
Speaker 1: the lip. That's really if you want the sellec Elliott

1728
01:21:47,600 --> 01:21:51,640
Speaker 1: Pedro Ponderosa pops, that's what you need. You have to

1729
01:21:51,680 --> 01:21:54,080
Speaker 1: have that, and that takes a long time to get

1730
01:21:54,080 --> 01:21:56,080
Speaker 1: that length. I don't have the patients because then you

1731
01:21:56,120 --> 01:21:58,880
Speaker 1: start like chewing on it. Well you yeah, you clip it.

1732
01:21:58,920 --> 01:22:01,240
Speaker 1: You gotta keep this all short. But in order to

1733
01:22:01,240 --> 01:22:04,200
Speaker 1: get that full thick, you need the top layer to

1734
01:22:04,760 --> 01:22:08,720
Speaker 1: be all the way. That length is what's required. You

1735
01:22:08,760 --> 01:22:10,840
Speaker 1: have to have it, and that takes I mean even

1736
01:22:11,160 --> 01:22:13,080
Speaker 1: even when I've you know, like when I've done no

1737
01:22:13,160 --> 01:22:15,960
Speaker 1: shave November whatever, and I not shave for a month,

1738
01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:19,000
Speaker 1: You're still not even really close to that like it

1739
01:22:19,040 --> 01:22:21,000
Speaker 1: would probably be for me. I would say probably like

1740
01:22:21,200 --> 01:22:24,320
Speaker 1: three months of growth, at least two months of growth

1741
01:22:24,560 --> 01:22:26,679
Speaker 1: to get to a point to where it's the true

1742
01:22:26,920 --> 01:22:31,920
Speaker 1: it's got to be full. Yeah, yeah, that's that's really

1743
01:22:31,960 --> 01:22:35,600
Speaker 1: the length that's required. Is that? Is that? Well? That?

1744
01:22:35,760 --> 01:22:38,439
Speaker 1: I mean that's to wear the mustache and not be

1745
01:22:38,520 --> 01:22:42,080
Speaker 1: ironical if you can pull it off. No, it's a

1746
01:22:42,120 --> 01:22:43,879
Speaker 1: part of who you are. It's part of your ethos.

1747
01:22:44,280 --> 01:22:47,320
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, And I don't know that there's much

1748
01:22:47,360 --> 01:22:49,240
Speaker 1: of that now. I feel like more than now, they're

1749
01:22:49,280 --> 01:22:52,479
Speaker 1: like either hipster or ironic. Very few where it's like

1750
01:22:53,240 --> 01:22:56,479
Speaker 1: you're just that's just a nice mustache that you were

1751
01:22:56,479 --> 01:22:58,479
Speaker 1: supposed you're supposed to have that. I don't think if

1752
01:22:58,479 --> 01:23:00,880
Speaker 1: there's anybody young that is wearing one, unless it's like

1753
01:23:00,880 --> 01:23:03,679
Speaker 1: somebody wearing one for a part. Like the new top

1754
01:23:03,720 --> 01:23:07,120
Speaker 1: Gun rooster has a mustache, but it's clearly an homage

1755
01:23:07,120 --> 01:23:11,320
Speaker 1: to Goose. Yeah have you seen? Yeah? Still has still

1756
01:23:11,320 --> 01:23:14,160
Speaker 1: have not no waiting for the Imax. The kids want

1757
01:23:14,160 --> 01:23:15,400
Speaker 1: to go, so we were waiting for them to come

1758
01:23:15,439 --> 01:23:18,439
Speaker 1: back so soon soon. Everybody says the best of you ever.

1759
01:23:18,439 --> 01:23:20,240
Speaker 1: And I heard Jurassic did not live up to the

1760
01:23:21,479 --> 01:23:23,559
Speaker 1: I mean it's Chris Pratt running around with a dinosaur

1761
01:23:23,560 --> 01:23:25,360
Speaker 1: and a backpack on a motorcycle, Like what do we do?

1762
01:23:26,080 --> 01:23:28,560
Speaker 1: That's not what Jurassic Park was about. Top Guns to me,

1763
01:23:28,760 --> 01:23:30,760
Speaker 1: I just can't wait. Yeah, and did you see you

1764
01:23:30,800 --> 01:23:33,160
Speaker 1: saw it in what theater? Imax in Columbus. I was

1765
01:23:33,160 --> 01:23:36,000
Speaker 1: down in close and you did not see it in Imax? No? No,

1766
01:23:36,240 --> 01:23:40,040
Speaker 1: but I think on a giant screen you just have

1767
01:23:40,120 --> 01:23:42,320
Speaker 1: to see it on an Imax is an extraordinary. But

1768
01:23:42,400 --> 01:23:45,880
Speaker 1: like I've I'm catching the littles up. Yeah, like im

1769
01:23:46,040 --> 01:23:49,559
Speaker 1: because it's totally there's only one scene with like for Bootsy,

1770
01:23:49,640 --> 01:23:51,559
Speaker 1: but the two olders will be fine with it. So

1771
01:23:51,600 --> 01:23:53,680
Speaker 1: I'm catching them up on the other parts of the

1772
01:23:53,720 --> 01:23:56,200
Speaker 1: original and so that they can get to a point

1773
01:23:56,200 --> 01:23:58,200
Speaker 1: to where they understand what's going on in it. But

1774
01:23:58,240 --> 01:24:01,000
Speaker 1: I mean, it's honestly much a for for not your

1775
01:24:01,080 --> 01:24:03,200
Speaker 1: kids are older, as to some deal. But it's much

1776
01:24:03,240 --> 01:24:05,479
Speaker 1: safer for the kids than the original was by a

1777
01:24:05,479 --> 01:24:07,960
Speaker 1: pretty wide margin. Uh So, much more to come. You

1778
01:24:08,040 --> 01:24:22,840
Speaker 1: listen to Clean the Browns Daily on Cleveland. Brown's Daily

1789
01:25:10,479 --> 01:25:15,680
Speaker 1: awful long time. Um. I think Old Forrester has some

1790
01:25:15,880 --> 01:25:20,439
Speaker 1: claim to that the first one. The oldest Bourman distillery

1791
01:25:20,439 --> 01:25:24,280
Speaker 1: in the world. Uh was Burke's distillery that goes back

1792
01:25:24,320 --> 01:25:30,640
Speaker 1: to seventeen seventy three. The first commercial distillery was Evan Williams.

1793
01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:34,120
Speaker 1: Still doing it today, by the way. And there they

1794
01:25:34,120 --> 01:25:39,680
Speaker 1: have a believe a twelve year that's very fine. The

1795
01:25:39,760 --> 01:25:42,760
Speaker 1: Samuel's family claims that's how the oldest Burbon family is

1796
01:25:42,760 --> 01:25:45,280
Speaker 1: still going strong story of beef that the family began

01:25:45,320 --> 01:25:49,439
Speaker 1: making whisky three when Robert Samuel's created a secret family recipe.

1798

Speaker 1: The family made a business of bourbon around eighteen forty

1799
01:25:52,160 --> 01:25:55,960
Speaker 1: when T. W. Samuels constructed assillery at Samuel's depot in Kentucky.
