Speaker 1: a first Friday Miracle initiation of the program merely Bow

7
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: the Great Sea. How you living, buddy, I'm good Man,

8
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:46,879
Speaker 1: good made. I made an electric soup last night. Tell

9
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: me about it, to run it by. It's it's it was.

10
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 1: It just kind of came to my mind. Let me

11
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: all right. So it was a a Tuscan bean. I

12
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: already like where you're at? Were you let me ask you? Yes?

13
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 1: But were you inspired by white lotus in some ways? Yes?

14
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 1: And I knew I had some kale in the house,

15
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: and I was like, all I want to make a

16
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:08,040
Speaker 1: soup with kale, but I wanted so Tuscan bean and

17
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:12,480
Speaker 1: kale goes very well together, So I I kind of

18
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: just had that was like that was the starting point.

19
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 1: And then I was like, all right, how do I

20
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 1: make it like the way that I would want it

21
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 1: to be, or that that everybody will enjoy it. And

22
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: so I got a pound of hot Italian so siege

23
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 1: brown that up in the pan. First chopped it all

24
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 1: up in a bit, got that out, uh, and then

25
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 1: in when you know, carrot, celery, onion, garlic, some fresh rosemary,

26
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 1: and then I added some crimini mushrooms also known as

27
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,199
Speaker 1: baby Bella's into that mix, some you know, salt pepper,

28
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: Italian seasoning crushed reds. Got that going good. So then

29
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: I had three cans of beans to cantloni and one

30
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: Great Northern or White Northern whatever they're called. I took

31
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 1: one of the Cantaloni's dumped it into a blender. Oh

32
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 1: this is an interesting move to you. I dumped blended

33
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: that baby just one of the beans. One can of

34
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 1: beans blended with with whatever is in the can or know,

35
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 1: so drained water beans in and then a cup of

36
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 1: chicken broth blended those that together, and that kind of

37
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 1: added made a little creaminess cords to the soup. Give

38
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 1: you a nice bean soup. I like. Yeah, So then

39
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 1: I put that in there. But then also regular chicken

40
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: broth and chicken stock and YadA YadA ya all that

41
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 1: in there. Um added back in the so siege. Got

42
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:34,359
Speaker 1: that thing percolate and real nice, and then I hand

43
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 1: peeled a rotisserie chicken. I put that in with about

44
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 1: all the meat of that in with about five minutes

45
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: to go because it just needed to be warmed up

46
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: really uh. And then you add your kale in and

47
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 1: kale mix it around so it's a creamy or it's

48
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: not a full cream soup because you only did a

49
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: little bit of them. You don't have any dairy. And

50
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 1: then the rest of the beans are in there, the

51
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: chickens and beans. Obviously you had no dairy. And then

52
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 1: at the end you serve it, shave it with a

53
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 1: little fresh parmesan on on top, and it's a light

54
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: you can still like you can squose a lemon on

55
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: it if you're so inclined. I did not in this case.

56
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 1: It was it was good. People were people were digging it.

57
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 1: I feel like they would be. I like everything healthy.

58
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: Do you go on the hot Italian so siege? Is

59
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: that loose or do you where do you do you

60
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: to get it too? I went loose, so I've been so.

61
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 1: I had done a lot of stuttying of this because I,

62
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: for the longest time would only use Turkey Italian so

63
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 1: siege because I was in my mind it was so

64
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: much better. It's actually not that much better. Not much

65
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 1: of a difference for out. Yeah so, because I think

66
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: part of it's got to be the preserve whatever. But

67
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: it turns out net net not being really any better

68
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 1: for you, and it certainly doesn't taste as good as real.

69
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 1: So it at Heinan's that they've got. They've got a

70
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: loose they always have it there and it's yesh. I

71
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 1: just start with that. It was great, man. The fresh

72
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: rosemary adds a lot to it, a bunch of garlic

73
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 1: in there. I always go heavy on garlic. I read

74
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: a book once where this guy was talking about the

75
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: best beef barley soup he ever had, and uh, he said,

76
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 1: he puts in his bee farley soup when he makes

77
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: it twenty four clothes of garlic. And he goes, they

78
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: don't write poems about barley soup unless there's twenty four

79
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: cloves of garlic. That's incredible. Yeah, so, which is a lot.

80
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: I didn't go quite that heavy, but delicious real treat

81
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: I have to make an alternative for for the boots,

82
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 1: but uh, and probably the beams. But after that and

83
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 1: then we put it over you could you don't need

84
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: anything with it because it's certainly hardy enough. Um, and

85
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 1: there's a lot of stuff in there. But I put

86
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: it over a little bit of the red lentil pasta,

87
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: so it's just maybe out of lentils, you know. That

88
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: way you get a little something to taste it with

89
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: and let also keep it, you know, leaning on the scene.

90
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 1: So that was good, like what you did there. My

91
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: back's feeling better, feeling good about that. Got the brave

92
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 1: of it on there. Tomorrow hopefully I'll be back to

93
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 1: normal tomorrow. You take today off from working out, though,

94
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 1: I feel like I think that's smart. I think that's smart.

95
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 1: There she is, ah this k there she is, there,

96
00:04:55,920 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: she is. She loves it when we talk about her. Um.

97
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: I wanted to run something by you, and this will

98
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: be at the much of this chagrin of Gibbey. Um.

99
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,559
Speaker 1: I'm watching Lebron last night against the Calves. I always

100
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:13,160
Speaker 1: intrigued when he's here. Um, And I did think it

101
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 1: was really important that Donovan Mitchell played like that, what

102
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 1: while Lebron was playing for the opposing team. Now ave

103
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: Anthony Davison at the Lakers actually be pulling really well

104
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 1: until this one. Um, they kind of boat race him

105
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter and they cruise out. Mitchell's a

106
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 1: supernova forty three points. He's ridiculous. Um, They're awesome. They're

107
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 1: really good team. They can win the championship this year.

108
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 1: But that's not what I'm talking about. They're fun. They

109
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 1: are The Cavaliers did something that I thought was is

110
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 1: one of the smartest things that I've seen a professional

111
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: sports team do. And it takes it takes a lot

112
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: of self confidence, belief, and it takes a little bit

113
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:57,359
Speaker 1: of guts. But what they have done since Lebron left

114
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 1: by honoring him by doing the choc toss, by having

115
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,039
Speaker 1: uh the guy who does the announcement saying we welcome

116
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 1: back Lebron James, like all that type of stuff, They've

117
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:12,280
Speaker 1: allowed their fan base to continue to appreciate and love

118
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: what Lebron James did for the fan base and for

119
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: the organization while also moving on. It's a big move.

120
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: It's a big thinking move because if you saw last

121
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 1: night in the videos of him doing the choc toss,

122
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,720
Speaker 1: there's Calves fans everywhere going nuts for it. When they

123
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 1: played the video, they went nuts they give him a

124
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: standing ovation, and I know that you're anti this, but

125
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 1: it allows for a fan base his He's gonna have

126
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: a statue in front of that place. He's gonna have

127
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: his jersey retired, no doubt. He's the best player in

128
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 1: the history of the franchise by a wide margin. Now

129
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: it helps that they've crushed all of this, from draft,

130
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,559
Speaker 1: the Mitchell trade, all of it. Like they're back good

131
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 1: quicker than anybody thought, or than most teams, frankly ever

132
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 1: get the opportunity to be. They're probably one of the

133
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,839
Speaker 1: best five best run organizations in all of the NBA.

134
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 1: But because of the way they're ndling this Lebron thing,

135
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 1: their fan base isn't conflicted. They can appreciate and love

136
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 1: what he did and also appreciate moving on. There were

137
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 1: m VP chants for Donovan Mitchell last night, appropriately, so

138
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: he's ridiculous. It's I just rarely see professional sports teams

139
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 1: take such a magnanimous approach to honoring a former player.

140
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: When you are not able to let go of your resentment,

141
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: when you are living with your anger, you don't heal

142
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: and you're not able to be Okay, the most powerful

143
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 1: thing that you can do is to move on and

144
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 1: to say, you know what, I appreciate the great times

145
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 1: we had. We're not having them anymore. It doesn't diminish

146
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: how great they were in the moment, and so thank you.

147
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: But we're also moving on and being productive in our

148
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: own right without you. But we can still acknowledge very

149
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,000
Speaker 1: much what you did for us and how great that is.

150
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 1: And I think that is actual hour and that is

151
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: actual progress. And that's why the calves are probably doing well.

152
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 1: They're still crying about Lebron. They're not getting anywhere. What

153
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: do you think he's so mad? Let's start with this.

154
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 1: I think that the girl is the guy that, growing

155
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 1: up really did try to be friends with every girlfriend

156
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: that he ever broke up with. You, I was largely indifferent.

157
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 1: Try to be frenzy. That's different. That's not what I'm saying.

158
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 1: And no, no, I mean maybe a little bit. I

159
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: think it's more of like, it's more like being able

160
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: to move on than it is trying to I don't

161
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 1: even think you can do it with like a I

162
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 1: don't think you can do it with like a romantic relationship.

163
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: I don't think you can do it like that. I

164
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 1: think you can do it more along the lines of

165
00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 1: is I'm trying to think of because the end, to tease,

166
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,559
Speaker 1: it's this is what it is. The fans are the children.

167
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 1: The fans are the children. The entities, the calves ownership

168
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: Lebron can bicker and have ups and downs and all

169
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: of those things, but the honoring of Lebron is, let's

170
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 1: get along for the children, because it forces the kids

171
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: not to have to choose one or the other. You

172
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:28,680
Speaker 1: can have both. It's a it's a really high, high

173
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 1: minded approach that the Cavaliers have taken for their fans

174
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: to allow for the joy of a championship, for God's sakes, right,

175
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: allow for the joy of that in the appreciation of that,

176
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: while also appreciating what you're doing now without having to

177
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 1: have mixed emotions. That's the intent, I think, And I

178
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: just think it's really high minded. I get that he

179
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:58,680
Speaker 1: will be recognized. I get the statue renaming a street.

180
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:04,679
Speaker 1: I'm sure, yeah, like if not the court for him, um,

181
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: but I think it's all in play. Mmm. I don't

182
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 1: need to see any more tribute videos. I give you

183
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 1: want you're the other end of it. You want to

184
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 1: do what you do and whatever else. Stop with the

185
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:25,560
Speaker 1: tribute videos, like great, audience appreciates it. Now let's go

186
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,079
Speaker 1: kick his ass. That's fine, and that's what the that's

187
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 1: what they did. They did kick his ass. They smoked him.

188
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 1: I mean and there they were playing well coming into

189
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:38,319
Speaker 1: the game. They hurt them last night. Yeah, yeah, totally different.

190
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 1: If Davis plays, I think I still think the Calves

191
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,319
Speaker 1: are the better team. But Davis was playing it and

192
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,079
Speaker 1: he was NBA Player of the Month. I mean, he'd

193
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 1: been back. Yeah he was bad. Like what's that guy like?

194
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: Just give it time. He's gonna get hurt because that's

195
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 1: what he does. Was flu or something. I don't know

196
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 1: what it was last night, but I just think it's

197
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 1: a really cool thing that they did to be able

198
00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 1: to spread the needle videos over with great. Did you

199
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 1: see the reaction though to the fans to love if

200
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 1: you want to embrace him when he's being introduced and

201
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 1: he does his little smoke show. Great, but like once

202
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 1: the game starts, you shouldn't be I think that's what

203
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: they did though, give it, don't you think. I don't

204
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 1: know when that video aired before it was Yeah, they

205
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 1: By the way, it's also there's also I know I

206
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:31,079
Speaker 1: saw the highlights, but what amazing fourth quarter to your analogy,

207
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 1: when you expect, if you're expecting things to be hostile

208
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,679
Speaker 1: and then they're nice, it kind of throws you off

209
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 1: your game anyway. And so it's like Lebron's like, oh, yeah,

210
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:41,439
Speaker 1: this was great. So he's not even thinking about it

211
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 1: because man, it was great here, this was awesome. I

212
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,199
Speaker 1: think it's some good gamesmanship too. I think it's every

213
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 1: every aster I would agree with it was. I don't know.

214
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,559
Speaker 1: It struck me as uh, it's rare, I think in

215
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 1: today's day's championship. So, um, we've got guys back in

216
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: the holding today. Go ahead. How many championships have have

217
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,960
Speaker 1: you experienced from Cleveland sports teams in your lifetime? Gibbe one,

218
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 1: m I knew who who he quit? M hm. That's

219
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: like saying, hey this, I had this one boss who

220
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 1: gave me a ten million dollar bonus and then he

221
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 1: fired me. Well you got the ten million, You've got it.

222
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 1: It's yours. It's yours. What you do with it is

223
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 1: up to you. That's right. But you got you did.

224
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: You stould be grateful. You're very grateful of the bonus.

225
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 1: That thanks. We have some roster updates for you this morning,

226
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 1: Reggie Ragland comes in. Uh he has been signed as

227
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 1: we officially sadly placed si ony Taki taki on I

228
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: r We knew that was coming, It just sucks to

229
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 1: read it. Ragland is in his seventh season out of Obama.

230
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: Originally a second round picking Buffalo in sixteen, he appeared

231
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 1: in seventy five games, forty seven starts to seventy six tackles,

232
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 1: three and a half sacks. He paired in all seven

233
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,440
Speaker 1: cames with the Giants in two thousand one practice squad.

234
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,439
Speaker 1: Earlier this year with the Raiders. UM, I'm pretty sure

235
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 1: he was one of those guys who is huge line right,

236
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: isn't he Bigley? He was one of those guys, Diet,

237
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 1: of those guys in that run of Alabama linebackers that

238
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 1: were all supposed to be amazing but never really became

239
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 1: amazing in the NFL. He was one of those guys who,

240
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 1: so sixteen, I'm pretty sure he's a thumper. I'm pretty

241
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 1: sure when you um, when you look at six to fifty. Yeah,

242
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:26,679
Speaker 1: So he was kind of the end of the line

243
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: for them that there was a RUNNYE Tower. Yes, there

244
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 1: was a ton of those guys from oh nine to

245
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 1: fifteen sixteen, where Alabama just had big, hulking linebackers who

246
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: would smack you in the mouth. And then John Football

247
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 1: happened and Ohio State happened, and Deshaun Watson happened, and

248
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: they realized that with really athletics, spread out teams, those

249
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: guys couldn't run, and so they recruited in a different

250
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,680
Speaker 1: way from that point going forward. But up until he

251
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 1: was one of the last to those guys that was

252
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:58,360
Speaker 1: the big, physical, stand up linebackers. But then they started

253
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: recruiting out of it when the sport changed. You mentioned

254
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 1: Sean Watson, and that pops into in my mind that

255
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 1: I wanted to bring up today. So I was doing

256
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 1: some research getting ready for this game. So Deshaun Watson's

257
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 1: played fifty four games in his career. Of those fifty

258
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,560
Speaker 1: four games, so this would be his this is his

259
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 1: now what his fifth season? This is his fifth season.

260
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: Fifty four games, fifty five games starts. Three of the

261
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 1: five lowest quarterback rated games of his career were the

262
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 1: first games of the season. Is that so one of

263
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 1: the other ones of the five lowest, number four in

264
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 1: there of the five lowest was a second game of

265
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 1: a season. His best rated game ever in the opening

266
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 1: game of the season was in the forties out of

267
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 1: fifty four. Okay, so maybe he's just not a fast

268
00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 1: starter period, maybe not a clearly the data would suggest

269
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: that that is the case. Juxtaposed with seven hundred days

270
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 1: between games, perhaps even more right, So this could be

271
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 1: there is a historic trend. He's never had a great

272
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 1: Week one game ever, but that is he only gets better.

273
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 1: And to have three of your five lowest rated games

274
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 1: of your career i'll be the first time you've played

275
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 1: in a season, and for the other two to be

276
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 1: in the bottom you know, of your fifteen games ever,

277
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: so like your forty best games all happened not in

278
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: the first game of the season. There's something to that

279
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 1: that is it cost to me, Like that is something

280
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 1: so you consider that rust than even more rusty. Um,

281
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 1: we'll see now week one of his rookie season, second

282
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 1: game his careers, Week two at Cincinnati. He did win

283
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 1: that game thirteen to nine over the Bengals. Not exactly

284
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 1: a dynamite passing performance, but that's something that maybe is

285
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 1: just part of the Shawn Watson and so that's under

286
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 1: normal circumstances, So it could even be to expect him

287
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 1: all of a sudden weeks two to go bonkers his

288
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,240
Speaker 1: week two is we're not that great either, by the way,

289
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 1: that maybe this is going to take a little longer

290
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 1: than we would like, and we're gonna have to, you know,

291
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: hope that he is better and that our defense continues

292
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: to play well. Our defense, you know, last time season

293
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: low thirteen points, we played very well against this this

294
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 1: burrow led team twenty nine points total in the last

295
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 1: two games against Joe Burrow. But I thought that was

296
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 1: kind of an interesting thing when I went through all

297
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 1: of his his career game logs. That is that Yeah,

298
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 1: that's more than a trend. That's I mean, I guess

299
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 1: it's exactly what it's. It is a trend. There's there's

300
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 1: pretty good data to back all of that up. Um.

301
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 1: The interesting thing about UM, you know this matchup. UM,

302
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 1: we'll get into it as as we go along today

303
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 1: and over the course of the week is if you

304
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 1: go back to UM, you know, if you think about

305
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 1: where the Bengals were coming into that game, so they

306
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 1: lose Jamaar Chase in the previous game, he doesn't play

307
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 1: against US last time out. Uh, they lose a woozy

308
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 1: a in the game who they felt like that was

309
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 1: a death knell for them because he was playing lights out.

310
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,200
Speaker 1: So he goes down. So it's Eli Apple and a

311
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 1: rookie at corner for them. Like their defense is kind

312
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 1: of patchwork together. What what they've done. There's a lot

313
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 1: of scrap heap to it, but they're playing really well

314
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 1: as a unit. Um. But the point I was going

315
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:12,919
Speaker 1: to get back to on the d Shaun part of

316
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 1: it is is you know he this is the beauty

317
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,239
Speaker 1: of him signing here. And my guess is if you

318
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 1: if if there ever is a long form interview about it,

319
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,640
Speaker 1: that's really just about his decision and not the off

320
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:25,920
Speaker 1: field stuff and and what led him to this decision.

321
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 1: I'm guessing part of it was this is a really

322
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:32,679
Speaker 1: good supporting cast. He doesn't need to be superhuman to

323
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 1: win here every time out. He doesn't have to carry

324
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 1: this team. Uh. The Jacoby Bursett approach was plenty good

325
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 1: enough for our record to be inverted right now at

326
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 1: seven and five versus five and seven. So he doesn't

327
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 1: have to be Mahomes borrow Alan every week. He will

328
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,439
Speaker 1: be down the road because that's who he is. But

329
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 1: in terms of right now, it's not required, even against

330
00:17:56,840 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 1: a team like Cincinnati. No, it's wild and and this team,

331
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 1: this sit today, how about this since today is not

332
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 1: allowed a three hundred yard passer this year, not one.

333
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: The Browns were the only team over four hundred yards

334
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: or thirty points against him this season. Nick Chubb is

335
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: the last player to run for a hundred yards against

336
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 1: them this season and the only Amari Cooper's the last

337
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 1: receiver to have more than a hundred yards against him

338
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 1: this year. The only other was Tyreek Hill and that

339
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 1: was early in the season. That's it. They are playing,

340
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 1: to your point, good defense and team defense. The only

341
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 1: quarterback this is an amazing one. One quarterback all years

342
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,879
Speaker 1: throw two passing touchdowns against them, just one? Can you

343
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:46,400
Speaker 1: name them? Can take a They've played Steelers, Cowboys, Jets, Dolphins, Ravens, Saints,

344
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: thousands and Browns present. There's Steelers, Titans, Chiefs. Mitch did

345
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 1: Mitch get too in the opener? Baker Mayfield Baker did

346
00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:01,200
Speaker 1: Week nine two touchdowns uh in in relief in the game.

347
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 1: Remember they got blown out and he came in and

348
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: relief the p J. Walker in the second half and

349
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 1: then threw two touchdowns. Wow. Yeah. I mean, I think

350
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 1: the most impressive thing that they've done defensively is what

351
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 1: they've done the last two weeks, Like they suffocated Derrick

352
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 1: Henry and the Titans run game, then the next week

353
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: they held Mahomes in check. That you can't get more

354
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,360
Speaker 1: diversified than those two offenses back to back, and they've

355
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: proven to be able to do it. Um So yeah.

356
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 1: Donovan People's Jones, a f C Special Teams Player of

357
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,000

399
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:52,199
Speaker 1: a game, as as you so eloquently put it, that

400
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:53,919
Speaker 1: is exactly what they are, but it's a different it's

401
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:57,879
Speaker 1: a higher level of chuka um and top ends in

402
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 1: a vow yeah, errands in a vow for sure um.

403
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 1: The real key to it, I think though, is that

404
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: he he really crushes the tailor of the pant to

405
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,679
Speaker 1: the top of the chucka Because the hard thing that

406
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:11,199
Speaker 1: I've got some chuckers and the problem is if the

407
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:13,880
Speaker 1: pant leg won't go over the CHUCKA, you've got bunching,

408
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,879
Speaker 1: which you don't want. If the chuck is too high,

409
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:22,400
Speaker 1: that can happen as well if it's to girthia CHUCKA. Yeah, no, win,

410
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:27,119
Speaker 1: no win, he's he's mastered it. Que a few things,

411
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 1: quite a few. I've never seen a gray suede CHUCKA either. No,

412
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,639
Speaker 1: that's stunning. That's electric. With with what he had gone on,

413
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 1: it looked like he had on the burgundy coat. Was

414
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 1: that a burgundy coady had on with a gray pant?

415
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,400
Speaker 1: I thought it might have been the blue family looks

416
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 1: like a deep It's harder for me. I have all

417
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 1: these lights because of all these studio cameras we have,

418
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 1: We have all these lights that are flashing. This is

419
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 1: not a warm light, no, not a soft and you

420
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:56,359
Speaker 1: have the orange out there with tan and a yeah,

421
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 1: look at that, look a look at finally tailored the

422
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,919
Speaker 1: code is. It's perfectly to every thing is. Of course,

423
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:03,200
Speaker 1: he's got the beard going this time of year, which

424
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: I always appreciate and enjoy. It's very very good. Um,

425
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 1: this is not who was the who was the woman

426
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 1: who was running for governor of Arizona? Oh never mind,

427
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 1: here's coach let's do that instead. What's at stake. We

428
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 1: understand the magnitude of the game, all those type of things,

429
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 1: but really for us, what we do is we lock

430
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,960
Speaker 1: in on the opponent, We lock in on the game plan.

431
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 1: We focus on Wednesday. So that's really where we are today,

432
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,919
Speaker 1: trying to make sure we are really good day of preparation.

433
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 1: This is a team that we know well, they know

434
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 1: us well, all those things when you talk about division opponents,

435
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: really well coached, great players across that roster. So we

436
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:42,880
Speaker 1: we have to be about our business if you want

437
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:44,959
Speaker 1: to try and win on the road against a really

438
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 1: good football team. So with that, I'll take any questions

439
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,880
Speaker 1: when you talk about them, knowing the magnitude of the game,

440
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 1: how do you balance that? John is right now and

441
00:23:55,480 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 1: which consider doing anything including the game. You know, we're

442
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 1: going down there to to win a football game, Tony.

443
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 1: That is our our focus. Deshawn's our quarterback. So uh,

444
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 1: we're focused on having a really good day of practice

445
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:13,119
Speaker 1: today and then you know, having a great day on Sunday.

446
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 1: But that's where our focus is. Basically, how long do

447
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,879
Speaker 1: you think it might take for him to get to

448
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 1: the level he was at reasonable expectations for that. Yeah,

449
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 1: I don't know if I could put, you know, a

450
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:28,719
Speaker 1: time frame on that type of thing. Jake, I just

451
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 1: I know he's working very hard. He's locked in on

452
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,239
Speaker 1: the game plan, working hard out of practice. So, Uh,

453
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: like I mentioned you guys before, I think there were

454
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 1: things that come up in your first game back that

455
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 1: that you have to just correct. And I think all

456
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: those things are what we're working on Monday, you know,

457
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 1: day after the game, and then in the today as well.

458
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 1: Can you tell Kevin if he's putting more pressure on

459
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 1: himself because there are a lot of expectations of him.

460
00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think DeShawn understands the role

461
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,479
Speaker 1: he plays for us and and and our offense on

462
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 1: our team. I think he really narrows his focus to

463
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 1: make sure that he's ready to go on Sunday. He

464
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 1: talks about throwing with anticipation. Is it harder to do

465
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:15,440
Speaker 1: when you haven't played in along hand it's a new system.

466
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,480
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I mean, certainly game reps help when you're

467
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: talking about and anticipation, and but I'd say all types

468
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:27,040
Speaker 1: of throws and all types of plays game reps will

469
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:30,640
Speaker 1: continue to help. But Uh, he's very comfortable with what

470
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 1: we're doing. So again, uh, focus for him, for our offense,

471
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:39,360
Speaker 1: for our team is having a really good Wednesday. Can

472
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:44,120
Speaker 1: you look at Joe Burrow? What makes him special? Kill? Yeah?

473
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 1: He Uh, extremely accurate, makes great decisions with the football,

474
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:53,800
Speaker 1: very athletic, can make every throw. You know, runs their

475
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 1: offense really well. I think they do a great job

476
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,160
Speaker 1: coach Taylor, coach Callahan, what they're trying to do with

477
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 1: him in that entire offense. I think they do a

478
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 1: really nice job. And he's just very talented, can make

479
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:07,200
Speaker 1: plays within the framework of the offense, can make plays

480
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 1: off schedule. Really really good player your defensive games against him.

481
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 1: Any ideas to as to why is it a matchup

482
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:25,160
Speaker 1: thing that, Yeah, you know, you don't pick up where

483
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,399
Speaker 1: you left off. You don't start this game where the

484
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 1: last game ended. It's zero zero, They're going to have

485
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:33,159
Speaker 1: there are guys ready to go. We have to have

486
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:38,200
Speaker 1: our guys ready to go. Vision so much familiarity and

487
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 1: and that, you know, the counter moves like that you

488
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,360
Speaker 1: have to make. How hard is that? It's It's really

489
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,080
Speaker 1: interesting because when you have schemes that have stayed in

490
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: place over the last three seasons, You really can go

491
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,440
Speaker 1: back and look at three years ago, and and there

492
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 1: is the element of we've done this, they've done that.

493
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 1: You know, does it show up in this game? You

494
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: really don't know, So you try and be prepared. You

495
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 1: have more tape to go back and look at. Um.

496
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 1: You know, you can look at your schemes against certain

497
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 1: of their schemes. But who's to say that either side

498
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,200
Speaker 1: doesn't have a change up this week type of thing

499
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 1: this season? Can an offense change up enough to try

500
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 1: to cross up and defense or is it a little

501
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 1: bit late to be trying to rent get the way

502
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 1: up here? I think I really think weekend and week out,

503
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 1: Mary kay, you're trying to uh add elements to either

504
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 1: offense or your defense that the other side hasn't seen. Uh.

505
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 1: And that's definitely something that we've tried to do over

506
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 1: the course of time. Sometimes it's small and you may

507
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,160
Speaker 1: not notice it. Sometimes there's big changes, whether it's personnel

508
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,959
Speaker 1: or schematic or those type of things that are readily apparent.

509
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 1: But I really do think weekend and week out you're

510
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 1: going to get something different from the opposing team, Like

511
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,400
Speaker 1: they're kind of a classic drop that team. Because I've

512
00:27:55,400 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 1: seen tintchup well against UM. But when Joe Burrow is

513
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 1: you know, only for is it is it time to

514
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 1: sort throw some of that open un try something dressed?

515
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 1: If we didn't from their perspective, yeah, I think they're

516
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: playing at a really high level. Their offense is playing

517
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 1: at a very high level. Um. They have talented players,

518
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,920
Speaker 1: have a really good scheme, so you always anticipate to

519
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 1: see some wrinkles of what they do. Uh So I

520
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 1: would anticipate that in this game, but I don't know

521
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 1: that they depart far from what they're doing offensively that

522
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: they're very very good offense. You know, is he here?

523
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 1: Is he going to practice? And what would you expect

524
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:39,640
Speaker 1: to get out of him? Yeah, obviously Reggie just got here,

525
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 1: so we'll see where he is from a mental Standpoint's

526
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 1: spending a lot of time extra time with coach Harbor

527
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 1: coach Bloom to get up to speed with what we're

528
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 1: doing defensively, and then we'll see how far along he

529
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 1: comes this week. So um so, girl just came off

530
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 1: of that game get homes for the third time to

531
00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: grow and every one of them have been big games.

532
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 1: And some people think Bengals are in my Homes's head.

533
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 1: You think the Browns are in Pearls head after the

534
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:09,240
Speaker 1: four No. Again, he's a really really good football player.

535
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,040
Speaker 1: I have a ton of respect for him, for for

536
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 1: coach Taylor that that team. They're coming off the Super Bowl,

537
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 1: so uh, they I know we'll have Uh, they'll be

538
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 1: ready to go Sunday. We have to be ready to

539
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 1: go Sunday. Have you noticed an improvement out of their

540
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 1: out of their protection, because I mean, you got the

541
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 1: Joe five times that first game, but it seems like

542
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 1: they've done a better jump in protecting them the less.

543
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think he's been sacked four times the

544
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 1: last four games. I think after our game, get the

545
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 1: ball comes out very very quick, which I think helps protection.

546
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 1: I'm sure they're doing a little bit better job obviously

547
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 1: with schematics or what have you. But uh, they can

548
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,120
Speaker 1: get the ball out of their hand quickly because they

549
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 1: have really good players on the perimeter. They can get

550
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 1: the ball in the hands of of any one of

551
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 1: those receivers. They got a couple of running back, so um,

552
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 1: they do a nice job getting the ball out. Are

553
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 1: you believing to turnovers bunch? I don't. I've certainly I've

554
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 1: seen that in games. I can think back to a

555
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 1: few games that we've had where they do. I have

556
00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 1: no idea if the numbers back that up or not. Um,

557
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 1: I'd love for them to come a bunch of come

558
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 1: all for it. Fair offensive change with Chase back in

559
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 1: he's opposed to when you first played. When you play, Yeah,

560
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 1: I think you have to see, as you know, I

561
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 1: think that was his last game back, this previous one,

562
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 1: So see as they're they're working him in. If his

563
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: workload increases considerably, I think we just gotta see. But

564
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,800
Speaker 1: he's dynamic. I mean, anytime he touches it, he can go.

565
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 1: He can catch a slant, he can catch a go ball,

566
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 1: they can throw on the wide receiver screen, he can

567
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 1: he can do it all. Uh, and he's very, very explosive.

568
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 1: Do you have a sense of confidence and that your

569
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 1: secondary seems like it's it's full strength for one of

570
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 1: a few times this year. Yeah, we just we have

571
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,280
Speaker 1: to play good football on on Sunday. Who'sever at there?

572
00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 1: You gotta play good football against a really good team.

573
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's the challenge. Wasn't game planning for them?

574
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 1: I guess in the running aspect because they know, waiting

575
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 1: for Joe Mixon to see if he's gonna play, But

576
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 1: it seems like they've been running the ball more than

577
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 1: the last few weeks especially, i'd expect we would expect

578
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 1: him to play. Uh. You know, they have multiple running

579
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: backs that they can throw at you. They all run hard,

580
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 1: they run downhill. Uh, we expect them to run the football.

581
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 1: That's part of you know, their formula and their wins.

582
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 1: That they're still running the ball a good bit while

583
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 1: throwing it. So, Uh, it's gonna be a challenge because

584
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 1: you gotta you have a very very good pass attack,

585
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 1: and they can definitely hurt you in the running game.

586
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: They have really sound schemes, they block them up and

587
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 1: they have good running backs. So that's the again, the

588
00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 1: challenge of facing a very very good offense. Conditioning standpoint,

589
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 1: anniversity standpoint. Do you feel confident Colors? Then he runs

590
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:54,960
Speaker 1: for the Shawn that you normally would midway through a

591
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: different season. Yeah, I think first game back for the

592
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:03,200
Speaker 1: Shawn that you like any of us, there's a football

593
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 1: game shape that you can certainly feel in the first one.

594
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: I think he felt good post game, but it's it's

595
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 1: a lot when you're getting through that first game. So

596
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 1: we'll see how it goes. You know, game plans change

597
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 1: week to week. Sometimes it's it'll call for him to

598
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 1: run a lot, sometimes it will call for him not

599
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 1: to run at all. So it really depends on the game.

600
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:26,239
Speaker 1: Donovans seventy six yards team until only it's second one

601
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 1: all year in the league. We know the problem is

602
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 1: free week. We talked to you about especial team problems.

603
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 1: How much of a relief was a team wise and

604
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 1: then free for his room. It's just contribute so much. Yeah,

605
00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 1: obviously you're always thrilled if you can, you know, contribute

606
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 1: in any which way offense, defense, special teams. So for

607
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 1: Donovan and the punt return team to come through like

608
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 1: they did last week was awesome and Donovan gets, you know,

609
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 1: the Special Teams player of the week and that's a

610
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,240
Speaker 1: great honor for him. But it does take eleven guys,

611
00:32:58,280 --> 00:32:59,840
Speaker 1: It takes the return and the ten other guys to

612
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 1: other job to open up a seam like that. So

613
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 1: always looking to win the field position battle, win those

614
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,719
Speaker 1: hidden yards and then if you can be explosive and

615
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:13,480
Speaker 1: go score, obviously that's a huge thing, uh, towards winning

616
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 1: and losing Kevin Um. How solid has he been for

617
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 1: you so since you've been here these three years? Yeah,

618
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 1: he's solids a great word. He's a extremely talented football player.

619
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 1: I've been around some good guards. He's he's up there.

620
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:38,880
Speaker 1: I mean, he's really really good. He's a athletic, powerful um,

621
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 1: good in the run game, good in the past game.

622
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 1: Move him out to left tackle, plays great at left tackle.

623
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 1: So on the football field, he's been extremely valuable to us.

624
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 1: And then off the field, you know, extremely valuable to

625
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 1: this football team. But but very you know, helpful to

626
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 1: me personally, just having a veteran that you can trust,

627
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 1: that that has kind of been through it all has

628
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, very helpful. Good, good, thanks guys. Alright,

629
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,920
Speaker 1: there's coach Stefanski at the podium for a team of

630
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 1: injury lawyers dedicated to every client every day called one

631
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 1: hundred elk Ohio Elkins, a proud partner of your Cleveland Browns.

632
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,719
Speaker 1: Who's out there practicing today? Who are are actives inactive? Sir?

633
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,839
Speaker 1: All right? In terms of the Browns practicing today, and

634
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:27,919
Speaker 1: also more importantly, I would say the ones that are

635
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:31,600
Speaker 1: not practicing today for the Cleveland Browns you have got

636
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 1: Denzel Ward not practicing today would due to an ankle

637
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:40,080
Speaker 1: and illness, A J. Green not practicing, knee, James Hudson illness,

638
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:44,279
Speaker 1: Anthony Schwartz concussion. So the good news would be on

639
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,759
Speaker 1: the other side is that David Djoko practicing today, as

640
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 1: is David Bell. So and and clearly the Browns miss

641
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 1: David Bell once he went out, sound like he's been,

642
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:57,640
Speaker 1: you know, putting up insane stats this year, but certainly

643
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:00,360
Speaker 1: is somebody that is reliable and a four matches in

644
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 1: each of the two games prior to getting injured last

645
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,280
Speaker 1: week against the Houston Texans. We're really thin at receiver.

646
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,960
Speaker 1: So every able bodied man, woman and child sign up

647
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,879
Speaker 1: to go to Cincinnati on Sunday, So that that would

648
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 1: be very very good news on that front. On the

649
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 1: Denzel that something will pay attention to if we get

650
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,880
Speaker 1: to Friday. But it seems like that's there's some common

651
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,720
Speaker 1: commonality with him on a on a first Friday being out.

652
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:25,359
Speaker 1: As we go around the league, Baker Mayfield, our former

653
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 1: starting quarterback, was claimed. The l A Rams claimed him

654
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,120
Speaker 1: off waivers yesterday. They were the only team to place

655
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:35,200
Speaker 1: a waiver claim on Baker Mayfield Um, they they are

656
00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:39,400
Speaker 1: in a real no win situation because they do not

657
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:44,440
Speaker 1: own their pick, so they're trying anything to win games

658
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 1: so that that deal doesn't seem more lopsided. It is

659
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,479
Speaker 1: a wild thing because they won this damn super Bowl

660
00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 1: and that is the objective and you can't take that

661
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,319
Speaker 1: away from them. But you can make a pretty good

662
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:58,719
Speaker 1: argument that no team has risked more and paid a

663
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:02,040
Speaker 1: bigger price to win it. And they did agreed, but

664
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,839
Speaker 1: they did, they did do it. I can imagine they

665
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:09,040
Speaker 1: lost for sure. I just think the one thing that's

666
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:11,319
Speaker 1: really unique, Oh my god, they'd be panned forever if

667
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 1: they didn't win it, Like there was no margin for air.

668
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:16,280
Speaker 1: They had to win it. Um, it's just for most

669
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,520
Speaker 1: places where you would leverage everything to win a super Bowl.

670
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:21,800
Speaker 1: In my head, it feels like it would be places

671
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,080
Speaker 1: who have never won one, but who have great longstanding

672
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 1: fan bases. They did it to try to embolden a

673
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 1: fan base, create a fan base, kickstart a fan base,

674
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:36,200
Speaker 1: and they won it, and there's nothing. It's like they

675
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 1: won the super Bowl. But aside from the guys on

676
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:39,759
Speaker 1: the team getting the rings and all of that, which

677
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: is all that matters now there's no carryover because there

678
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 1: isn't a fan base that's been there forever waiting for it.

679
00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:52,600
Speaker 1: It's the Marlins in uh. I agree with you spend

680
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,279
Speaker 1: all the money and yeah, you won, and the organization

681
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 1: won the franchise one and a year later, no one

682
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 1: cared and they did that twice. You still lived it.

683
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:04,719
Speaker 1: You still had as a player, for sure, But it's

684
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:06,759
Speaker 1: I think it's really had. No. I think what they

685
00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 1: were hoping to do wasn't. Just what they were hoping

686
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,600
Speaker 1: to do is the Super Bowl would lead to Ram's

687
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:17,160
Speaker 1: fever and it didn't. And there's it doesn't feel like

688
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 1: it's sustainable. They couldn't back it up at all. This

689
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,319
Speaker 1: no and all these injuries and all these things started

690
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:25,919
Speaker 1: to stack the running the line, offensive line situation wasn't there.

691
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:28,640
Speaker 1: So now who knows. It feels like they'll lose McVeigh.

692
00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 1: I don't know why he would stick around for this.

693
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 1: There's no real path. I feel like he's gonna leave.

694
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,520
Speaker 1: Donald's gonna they should try and trade Stafford if he

695
00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:37,400
Speaker 1: still wants to play, of course, and see what we

696
00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:39,799
Speaker 1: could get back for. What do you think of number seventeen?

697
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 1: Is there a reason? Is there some tie to that

698
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 1: or just random seven? Mightus want of six? That was

699
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:46,799
Speaker 1: the only thing I could think of. Yeah, I have

700
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:48,920
Speaker 1: no idea if there was that. I remember when there

701
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,320
Speaker 1: was the building the Browns when he was first draft.

702
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,279
Speaker 1: He was he was trying to almost seem like he

703
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,080
Speaker 1: was trying to decide what to wear, and he's like, yeah,

704
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:58,280
Speaker 1: I'll go with six. Like it wasn't like he was locked.

705
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:01,240
Speaker 1: I don't know. So I did not put an acclaim

706
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 1: for him, which is certainly interesting. A lot of people

707
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 1: made note of that, even that they were the team

708
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 1: that seemed most likely to need him. Um, but perhaps

709
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 1: we know, won't we now know why? Yes, as you're

710
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,320
Speaker 1: about to go ahead, tell the people, well, Jimmy Garoppolo's

711
00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 1: foot injury will not require surgery, leaving room for potential

712
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 1: return during the playoffs. But they still that's still during

713
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 1: the playoffs seven weeks, so there's five weeks less to

714
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 1: the season. It would be a wild cardish. My guess

715
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 1: is this will be newsworthy if he could play in

716
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 1: their first round game. And then the question would be

717
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:37,239
Speaker 1: if this brock Purty is doing a Tom Brady and

718
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 1: playing well and they are winning in the playoffs. Do

719
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:42,880
Speaker 1: you make a switch at that point in the playoffs?

720
00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,840
Speaker 1: I would probably not. My hunches, they would not, but

721
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,840
Speaker 1: then would have a quick leash. Yeah, if he's overwhelmed early,

722
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 1: then you would go back to Garoppolo. But um, my

723
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,319
Speaker 1: bet would be if I were betting, if I were

724
00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:56,839
Speaker 1: to look into a crystal ball, I would say that

725
00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 1: they're playing this Sunday their quarterback next year, so they

726
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 1: play the Bucks. That's right. I think twelves in Golden

727
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:11,880
Speaker 1: Red next season and shutting it down that's the end

728
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:15,359
Speaker 1: of it. Closes it out one season. They're loaded up

729
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 1: loaded defensively, all the weapons in the world, all of it.

730
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:22,279
Speaker 1: Scheme would be a tremendous fit. He would do all

731
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: of the things that Kyle wants out of a quarterback,

732
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:28,040
Speaker 1: except for the mobility part. But to me, that seems

733
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 1: like that's it feels like a lock that he does that.

734
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:33,640
Speaker 1: There was all that momentum a couple of years last

735
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:38,399
Speaker 1: year at the Combine anyway, no doubt. Yeah, so yeah,

736
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 1: I mean I to me, that's the way that that

737
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,480
Speaker 1: seems uh a little bit there. But the Garoppolo thing,

738
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 1: I think gives them a little bit of hope that

739
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 1: he could come back and give them some insurance they're

740
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 1: gonna make the postseason anyway. I mean there's starting to

741
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:54,759
Speaker 1: be some separation in the NFC, and I mean their

742
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,200
Speaker 1: schedules not that ambitious either. The rest of the way

743
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 1: down the stretch. I mentioned Tampa Bay this week, it's

744
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,359
Speaker 1: not crazy. See the rest of the way. I think

745
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 1: they close with Arizona. Are you guys watching The Hard

746
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:09,480
Speaker 1: Knocks Arizona in season? I have not seen it. I

747
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 1: watched one one my dad was in town. That was it.

748
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 1: That was it. I don't think they've done a really

749
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 1: great job promoting it. Maybe I'm wrong on that. Well,

750
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 1: the only way you're gonna get it promoted to you

751
00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 1: is if you're on HBO, because it's an HBO products,

752
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 1: so if you're on h HBO Channel or HBO Max.

753
00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 1: But like last year, like HBO they were they were

754
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:33,920
Speaker 1: running stuff and then during the week they would release

755
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,960
Speaker 1: some good stuff that didn't make the you know, that

756
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:41,640
Speaker 1: didn't make the actual show. And I don't recall seeing

757
00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 1: a lot of that here this year. I don't either.

758
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:46,399
Speaker 1: I've heard that it's good and it explains a lot

759
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 1: of what's going on there with the way Kingsbury goes

760
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 1: about his business and the way Kyler does. Yeah, but

761
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 1: I also think that we're not thirsting for it like

762
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:59,560
Speaker 1: we are in August. Yeah, in August, we want anything football.

763
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:02,720
Speaker 1: We'll watch any of it. Yes, it's new, it's fresh.

764
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 1: We want anything. And I think now this time of year,

765
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:08,400
Speaker 1: it's kind of we want the game and they're not

766
00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:11,840
Speaker 1: even interesting. No, no other than if you want to

767
00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:14,279
Speaker 1: watch the Titanic, because it feels like that's what they are.

768
00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:18,440
Speaker 1: Um Sean McDermot announcing Von Miller underweight surgery for a

769
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:19,960
Speaker 1: c L. He miss the rest of the season. We

770
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:21,800
Speaker 1: knew that. I don't know why he had to announce it.

771
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:29,359
Speaker 1: We didn't know that he wasn't going to go games. First,

772
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,880
Speaker 1: he wasn't going on I R. Then they put him

773
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:34,520
Speaker 1: on I R and it was like immediate aftermath. Wasn't like,

774
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:37,000
Speaker 1: oh he's done. That's what all thought from the video.

775
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:40,400
Speaker 1: But then they did know. It's like, actually, uh, I

776
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:43,840
Speaker 1: don't know if it was a ligament. It wasn't a

777
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:45,799
Speaker 1: c L, so then they thought he would for sure

778
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 1: be back, And now all of a sudden he's having

779
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,760
Speaker 1: a c L. So I wonder if in his PT

780
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:53,600
Speaker 1: or rehabby towards a C L fully, yeah, maybe it

781
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:55,399
Speaker 1: feels like it. I mean, he didn't. In my head,

782
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:57,799
Speaker 1: I thought he had catastrophic the time had happened. I

783
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:02,520
Speaker 1: thought it was done. It was a yuh what what

784
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:06,360
Speaker 1: exactly was it? Because it was something he could the

785
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,399
Speaker 1: question was gonna be pretty pretty play through it? Yeah,

786
00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:16,839
Speaker 1: and so had further evaluations on his injury. A procedure

787
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:20,960
Speaker 1: was done. After the surgery was completed, doctors determined he'd

788
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 1: actually had torn the a C O. Okay, there you go. Um,

789
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:30,799
Speaker 1: Davis Mills will go back to starting in Houston. If

790
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,080
Speaker 1: your Houston. Just gotta make sure you go one what

791
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:36,480
Speaker 1: is it? One and one? They make sure they're doing

792
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:40,759
Speaker 1: and he can't be worsened. Brandon Allen, Kyle Allen, he's bad.

793
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 1: It's gonna be the Brandon Allen's the backup for the Bengals. Yeah,

794
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:48,040
Speaker 1: the Allan Bros. It's not gonna make a difference. No, no, no.

795
00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:49,960
Speaker 1: They're the worst team in the league by a wide margin.

796
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:51,960
Speaker 1: So they're gonna get you know, they're gonna get what

797
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,920
Speaker 1: they intended to get, which is they're picking the quarterbacks.

798
00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:59,120
Speaker 1: Um going forward. Odell Beckham Jr. So the Cowboys looking

799
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:02,479
Speaker 1: concerns about his say this from Edward or yesterday as well. Yeah,

800
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:07,120
Speaker 1: this is getting some traction because the wonder is did

801
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,879
Speaker 1: Dallas violate some kind of hippo because you didn't hear

802
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:14,880
Speaker 1: anything the Giants gave him a physical and then all

803
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:17,120
Speaker 1: of a sudden, Dallas gives him a physical and it

804
00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:19,800
Speaker 1: comes out, well, that knee is not great. I'm naive

805
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:23,000
Speaker 1: I'll acknowledge it on what is a hip of violation?

806
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 1: What isn't? But one thing that I'm curious about is

807
00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:28,760
Speaker 1: is can you can it be a hip of violation

808
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,319
Speaker 1: if you are not an employee of the institution that

809
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 1: is doing the examination. I don't know, you know what

810
00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:38,880
Speaker 1: I mean. And you hear that a lot with college players,

811
00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:41,320
Speaker 1: like you know, they won't they can't really give details

812
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:43,480
Speaker 1: on injuries because the hip of violations. We see that

813
00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:47,640
Speaker 1: sometimes here too. Um yeah, I don't know. There was

814
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:49,360
Speaker 1: all this talk of well they could still want to

815
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:52,600
Speaker 1: do something with him bye and have him in Dallas.

816
00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:54,720
Speaker 1: It was interesting how he basically took like a recruiting

817
00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:57,560
Speaker 1: trip everywhere, and like it was quite public about all

818
00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:00,719
Speaker 1: the trips and nobody wanted them. No, no, because I

819
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:06,520
Speaker 1: don't think it's right. But again, he's he got hurt

820
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:09,839
Speaker 1: in the super Bowl. That's mid February. Yeah, I mean

821
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:14,920
Speaker 1: we're not. It's just now coming up on nine months. Yeah,

822
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:18,319
Speaker 1: I mean that's nine months, ten months, ten, But it's

823
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 1: it's your right. It's not a year, no, and it's back.

824
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:23,040
Speaker 1: It's two of them in back to back years. It's

825
00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:27,439
Speaker 1: too knees back to back. So and yeah, we saw

826
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:29,960
Speaker 1: that even when he I'll never forget being outside that

827
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:34,920
Speaker 1: June when he was running routes and we're like, what

828
00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:37,840
Speaker 1: nuts because he could do it. But then when he

829
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:39,759
Speaker 1: got back to games with us, you could tell that

830
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 1: he wasn't. He did not have the explosiveness, not necessarily

831
00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:46,279
Speaker 1: straight line. It was the start stop that he had

832
00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:49,160
Speaker 1: early in his career that had slept and he was

833
00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:50,920
Speaker 1: you know, and all that's I don't blame him, like

834
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 1: it's human nature, you know, quick to try to get

835
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:55,120
Speaker 1: out of bounds, tricked, quick to try and get down

836
00:44:55,480 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 1: those type of things. You just can't. The body can't

837
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,920
Speaker 1: take all of that and expect there to be no concern.

838
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,439
Speaker 1: It's I think he could have helped them a great

839
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:06,799
Speaker 1: deal had he hain't been able to play. I think

840
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:08,719
Speaker 1: that one more, dude, there would be a game changer,

841
00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:14,359
Speaker 1: is real quick, Like, yeah, right, do you drop them

842
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:17,160
Speaker 1: in your rankings? Yeah? I mean how far? How far

843
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:19,439
Speaker 1: do you fall? I mean you should have me. It's

844
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:23,840
Speaker 1: Kansas City since one too. Those are the two to

845
00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:27,440
Speaker 1: beat in the and then Bills. I mean, alan st

846
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:33,080
Speaker 1: had a ton of turnovers this year. Defensively great, no,

847
00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:36,239
Speaker 1: I mean he's still superb, but he's had a ton

848
00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 1: of turnovers and defensively, like, it feels like if you

849
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:42,600
Speaker 1: could just kind of bully them a little bit. They're

850
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:45,960
Speaker 1: they're fast, but they're not big. They play almost entirely

851
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,880
Speaker 1: Nickel as we know. It feels like there's an opportunity

852
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,719
Speaker 1: there for somebody. Good linebackers, good up front, very good

853
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:53,640
Speaker 1: across the line. But losing von Miller, I think it's

854
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:55,920
Speaker 1: a big blow to that big and their secondary has

855
00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:59,279
Speaker 1: been decimated by injury all year long. I still think

856
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:02,440
Speaker 1: the Eagles are very it. I'm just saying a f C. Yeah,

857
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:06,800
Speaker 1: that's definitely the f C. Yeah, yeah, and yeah, I'm

858
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:09,000
Speaker 1: I wanted to see more from the Eagles. I've seen enough,

859
00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:11,719
Speaker 1: Like I'm I'm there there a full day. They gotta

860
00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:14,400
Speaker 1: you gotta do it in the postseason. But really everything

861
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:16,960
Speaker 1: in the NFC is that now that Garoppolos hurt, it's

862
00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:19,520
Speaker 1: gonna be cousins in the postseason. Dock in the postseason,

863
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:22,839
Speaker 1: and it hurts in the postseason. None of the front

864
00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:24,719
Speaker 1: uners in the NFC have done it, So it's gonna

865
00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:26,120
Speaker 1: be fresh faced by the time you get to the

866
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:28,600

882
00:47:31,160 --> 00:47:33,240
Speaker 1: I'm speaking. I guess me. I guess I was naive

883
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:35,799
Speaker 1: or maybe hopeful. I don't know. Uh. You thought maybe

884
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:38,400
Speaker 1: seven hundred days of rust would get knocked off a

885
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:41,120
Speaker 1: little quicker, but the reality was our guy, to Sean

886
00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:43,239
Speaker 1: looked a little bit rusty and it was probably to

887
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:48,160
Speaker 1: be expected as you watched him on Sunday. What did

888
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:51,799
Speaker 1: you think what jumped out to you as Is there

889
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 1: anything that was a concern or was this just hey, look, guys,

890
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 1: this guy sayn't plays a competitive game in seven hundred days.

891
00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:02,239
Speaker 1: Welcome Bloat, Nathan Gibby. Great to be with you. It's

892
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:06,160
Speaker 1: great to be talking about these type of issues posted.

893
00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:12,120
Speaker 1: W like to learn and grab experience when you're winning,

894
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:16,200
Speaker 1: like in the NFL, is so much more torturous, as

895
00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:19,040
Speaker 1: we know, if you're trying to gain experience and learn

896
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 1: and answer those questions coming off in l and stuff.

897
00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:26,239
Speaker 1: So at this time of the year, in the month

898
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:30,879
Speaker 1: of December, the Great Marty Schottenheimer Jimmy Johnson always you say,

899
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:33,600
Speaker 1: really doesn't matter what it looks like, it's just getting

900
00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:36,760
Speaker 1: to w so that in itself it's fun to actually

901
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:43,240
Speaker 1: answer that question after winning like that. UM, you're not UM,

902
00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:46,239
Speaker 1: I don't think you're being unrealistic Bow when we talk

903
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:49,200
Speaker 1: about the seven hundred days of of of wanting to

904
00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:53,239
Speaker 1: see UM a good offense and that type stuff, But

905
00:48:53,280 --> 00:48:55,440
Speaker 1: really I think it's that that it was more of

906
00:48:55,440 --> 00:49:00,880
Speaker 1: a hopeful UM anticipation force. But from a reality standpoint, UM,

907
00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:04,680
Speaker 1: the the two to come out and play NFL quarterback

908
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:08,080
Speaker 1: at that top tier level after not playing for seven

909
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:11,440
Speaker 1: hrd days is really unrealistic. And what I kind of

910
00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:15,719
Speaker 1: jumped out at me and really what I have in

911
00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:19,240
Speaker 1: my head for this week and I really hope makes

912
00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:23,160
Speaker 1: a and it will make a progress this week, but

913
00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:27,759
Speaker 1: the amount of progress needed to have your feet underneath

914
00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:30,399
Speaker 1: you have, the way your feet kind of correlate with

915
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:33,600
Speaker 1: your throws and you're thinking, UM. You know, we have

916
00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:38,799
Speaker 1: a situation with Jacoby Brissette UM about three or four

917
00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:42,600
Speaker 1: games ago where he had said UM against the l

918
00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:45,319
Speaker 1: A Chargers, threw that pick running to the right, and

919
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:48,240
Speaker 1: then a week or two later he's rolling to his left.

920
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:52,040
Speaker 1: He said he got a flashback of the Chargers game

921
00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:56,040
Speaker 1: and he the game had slowed down so much for

922
00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:58,840
Speaker 1: him that he was able to process that play, learned

923
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:02,280
Speaker 1: from it and then not make the mistake and evolved

924
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:06,120
Speaker 1: and then running in for a score and again the

925
00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 1: game it slowed down for him. And some people had

926
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:11,640
Speaker 1: said that was a negative and that, oh my god,

927
00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:15,120
Speaker 1: he has a bad plane to the demon blood and

928
00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:17,960
Speaker 1: I actually we had talked about on the show, that

929
00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 1: actually a massively positive sign because like myself when I

930
00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:26,000
Speaker 1: knew I was starting to play good when Kobe started

931
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:31,120
Speaker 1: playing at that really uh another time, another next level.

932
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:35,760
Speaker 1: The game slows down for you what I saw Sean,

933
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:38,680
Speaker 1: and the pactual for all of us early and season,

934
00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:42,719
Speaker 1: early in preseason is the game was really fast for

935
00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:47,360
Speaker 1: him opting of this past Sunday and you know, making decisions,

936
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:51,480
Speaker 1: making your reads, making your checks um in the in

937
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:56,080
Speaker 1: the quarterback rooms one thing. Making is another thing. But

938
00:50:56,520 --> 00:51:02,440
Speaker 1: unfortually the position benefal quarterback. The only real stimulation to

939
00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:08,400
Speaker 1: it is game live experience, because yes, practice and it

940
00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:12,279
Speaker 1: helps some, but you're not live in practice. And when

941
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:15,600
Speaker 1: you mentally know that you you crushed, I say this

942
00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:19,359
Speaker 1: as a joke. But when you have the threat of death,

943
00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:21,359
Speaker 1: when you have the threat of getting crushed by a

944
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:25,920
Speaker 1: defensive lineman in the pocket upon you, you think differently,

945
00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:30,320
Speaker 1: Your mind reacts differently. You're embodying your thrones are different

946
00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:33,520
Speaker 1: than that. More experience you get with that, the more

947
00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:35,840
Speaker 1: timing you get with that, the better it is to

948
00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:38,440
Speaker 1: be successful. And it was it was kind of it

949
00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:40,920
Speaker 1: was clear this past thinking to show me more of

950
00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:44,080
Speaker 1: those reps, He's gonna get more. Talking with the great

951
00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:46,960
Speaker 1: Bernie Kozar Bernie, you mentioned his feet and I was

952
00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:50,120
Speaker 1: kind of struck watching it that it felt like there

953
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:53,799
Speaker 1: was inconsistency in the speed of his drops, in the

954
00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:56,919
Speaker 1: depth of his drops, and that I would imagine would

955
00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,600
Speaker 1: affect your rhythm, your timing, and your ability to deliver

956
00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:02,680
Speaker 1: the ball accurately. What did you see from his drops

957
00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:05,120
Speaker 1: and the variants in them, and what did that tell you?

958
00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:09,200
Speaker 1: And how do we fix that? Natan, That's a that's

959
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:14,120
Speaker 1: a real astute um um coaching point an analysis there,

960
00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:18,799
Speaker 1: and and to having consistency in your drops, inconsistency in

961
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:23,319
Speaker 1: your foodwork, and this is not this is so expected

962
00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:26,160
Speaker 1: and natural when you're not playing and you haven't got

963
00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:30,279
Speaker 1: the game live reps like that that you're going to

964
00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:34,479
Speaker 1: be inconsistent in your drops, and mainly that that that

965
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:37,480
Speaker 1: it happens. I believe at least it happened with me

966
00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:40,759
Speaker 1: because of mentally, so much is going on in my

967
00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:44,800
Speaker 1: head and process so much from a mental side of it,

968
00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:48,400
Speaker 1: to read and react to the mental side of it,

969
00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:52,560
Speaker 1: to what the defense is actually doing. That subtle things

970
00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:55,280
Speaker 1: that really should be able to do in your sleep,

971
00:52:55,560 --> 00:53:00,719
Speaker 1: like your footworking your drop become inconsistent because mentally you

972
00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:03,720
Speaker 1: have so many other things going on and you haven't

973
00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:07,279
Speaker 1: had time to process all of that and execute it

974
00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:11,280
Speaker 1: from a mental and physical side. Because of the throws

975
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:15,680
Speaker 1: are one point seven to two point two second throws

976
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:19,760
Speaker 1: on those three and five step drops, and that that

977
00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:23,359
Speaker 1: amount of process and mental stuff that's got to go

978
00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:27,960
Speaker 1: through in that one point seven seconds to execute a

979
00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:32,600
Speaker 1: physical play steamlessly at an NFL level. Um, it's easier

980
00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,440
Speaker 1: said than done, and and we need more work at

981
00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:40,560
Speaker 1: that right now. Unfortunately, since Santy Bengals are starting to

982
00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:44,759
Speaker 1: play at the wrong time, that since another Bengals are

983
00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:48,279
Speaker 1: getting healthy and starting to play at the level they

984
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:51,560
Speaker 1: were playing at this time last year and That's the

985
00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:54,080
Speaker 1: tricky part, right because this is you know, this is

986
00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:56,239
Speaker 1: every game we play is the most important game we

987
00:53:56,239 --> 00:53:58,600
Speaker 1: play because we've gotta win every game to have a chance. Uh,

988
00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:00,960
Speaker 1: if you look at our schedule big picture, this is

989
00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:03,319
Speaker 1: the most challenging one for sure in terms of this

990
00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:05,120
Speaker 1: is a team that can absolutely when the Super Bowl.

991
00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:06,839
Speaker 1: They just proved that beat in Kansas City last week.

992
00:54:06,840 --> 00:54:09,000
Speaker 1: They're in the super Bowl last year. Uh, they're healthy,

993
00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:13,560
Speaker 1: They're pretty loaded. From Kevin Stefanski's point of view, because

994
00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:16,879
Speaker 1: we've had success against this Bengals team the last few

995
00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:22,080
Speaker 1: times we've played them. You don't need superhuman DeShawn necessarily

996
00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:23,719
Speaker 1: to beat him. It'd be nice if you had him,

997
00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:26,480
Speaker 1: but it's probably unrealistic to think that you will. What

998
00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:31,440
Speaker 1: can you do Sunday to build confidence while also understanding

999
00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:33,040
Speaker 1: that this is where we are in the season, that

1000
00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:36,400
Speaker 1: this is a must win situation. Build confidence in de Sean?

1001
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:39,600
Speaker 1: What will you be looking for, Bernie early to let

1002
00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:41,600
Speaker 1: you know that this thing is true, heading in the

1003
00:54:41,680 --> 00:54:46,680
Speaker 1: right direction Sunday and for the rest of the year. Okay,

1004
00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:49,480
Speaker 1: So I got a couple of really great points, I

1005
00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:53,400
Speaker 1: hope great points to that great question. There UM. And

1006
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:57,239
Speaker 1: and there's really a couple of points. One from the

1007
00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:01,759
Speaker 1: sound perspective of it is he rushed the ball. He

1008
00:55:02,239 --> 00:55:04,880
Speaker 1: rushed the ball seven times for twenty one yards the

1009
00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:10,480
Speaker 1: other day through the bulls, all times one yards. His

1010
00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:14,160
Speaker 1: rushes weren't really towards a little bit towards the second

1011
00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:18,600
Speaker 1: half and stuff. And with his amazing athleticism, I actually

1012
00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:22,680
Speaker 1: think early using stuff with his legs and feet from

1013
00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:26,319
Speaker 1: the running perspective, UM may give him a chance to

1014
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:29,399
Speaker 1: get assimilated into the game and get his feet wet

1015
00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:34,080
Speaker 1: and get productive plays early. So UM last week or

1016
00:55:34,239 --> 00:55:37,520
Speaker 1: last yeah, last Sunday, UM, some of the throws and

1017
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:41,480
Speaker 1: early in the game were mostly dropped back read make

1018
00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:45,640
Speaker 1: the throws and execute him. We struggled with with that.

1019
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:49,440
Speaker 1: So maybe using place that get him outside the pocket

1020
00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:52,920
Speaker 1: or just flat out run the ball with him so

1021
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,480
Speaker 1: that he almost like what we tried to do a

1022
00:55:55,480 --> 00:55:58,120
Speaker 1: couple of times with Anthony Schwartz, to give him the

1023
00:55:58,160 --> 00:56:01,080
Speaker 1: ball to run and give him a positive play something

1024
00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:04,000
Speaker 1: that we know he could do is one thing that

1025
00:56:04,160 --> 00:56:08,439
Speaker 1: absolutely kind of look at early. And then also it's

1026
00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:12,680
Speaker 1: really imperative they love the second game against our division

1027
00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:16,640
Speaker 1: rivals in the season. We played them once already they

1028
00:56:17,080 --> 00:56:19,840
Speaker 1: they're gonna look at that film. We're looking at that film.

1029
00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:24,799
Speaker 1: There was real massive keys in that first game, especially

1030
00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:30,440
Speaker 1: from UM the way um our our defense played against

1031
00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:33,719
Speaker 1: the great Joe Burrow and there are awesome wide receivers

1032
00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:36,839
Speaker 1: and stuff. Joe Woods has been under you know, a

1033
00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:41,120
Speaker 1: lot of criticism throughout the season. The defensive performance last

1034
00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:45,359
Speaker 1: week was obviously top tier and stuff. Uh since any

1035
00:56:45,400 --> 00:56:50,560
Speaker 1: Bengals struggled against our Brown's defense the last game, we

1036
00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:55,759
Speaker 1: did some unique creative matchups. I thought on third and two,

1037
00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:58,240
Speaker 1: third and three, third and fourth, third and five against

1038
00:56:58,239 --> 00:57:02,000
Speaker 1: the Bengals last time we were playing too deep five

1039
00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:06,880
Speaker 1: under man coverage and got some really good uh incompletions

1040
00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:11,080
Speaker 1: and plays on that get the Bengals to not continue

1041
00:57:11,080 --> 00:57:14,520
Speaker 1: their drives and stuff. Rest assured the Bengals will watch that.

1042
00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:18,800
Speaker 1: What's the adjustments to to those type of plays that

1043
00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,720
Speaker 1: they weren't successful for in the first game that we

1044
00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:25,600
Speaker 1: had successful. That chess match comes into play this game,

1045
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:30,400
Speaker 1: UM and with the UMU their three receivers at Joe

1046
00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:32,840
Speaker 1: Burrow like that, how are we going to be able

1047
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:36,880
Speaker 1: to cover them vice versa? UM with the Sean and

1048
00:57:36,920 --> 00:57:39,200
Speaker 1: what we were talking about about getting his feet, but

1049
00:57:39,480 --> 00:57:43,720
Speaker 1: maybe by running the ball early. The Bengals defense, unfortunately

1050
00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:47,560
Speaker 1: with loof on a room o Um has been playing

1051
00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:52,160
Speaker 1: really good level too, so they're as defense that as

1052
00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:58,280
Speaker 1: Um against Patrick Mahomes did a did a drop eight defense,

1053
00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:02,800
Speaker 1: rust three, spy a defensive linement or linebacker on Patrick,

1054
00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:10,640
Speaker 1: then drops seven. I would probably anticipate variation of that

1055
00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:15,960
Speaker 1: coverage of the Browns because Patrick and his ability to

1056
00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:18,920
Speaker 1: run and create I think that you could draw a

1057
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:23,280
Speaker 1: similar uh symmetry between him and Deshaun. So I think

1058
00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:28,360
Speaker 1: their coach could implement some of that same scheme where

1059
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:31,760
Speaker 1: where you're only rushing three, buying a guy on deshown,

1060
00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:37,120
Speaker 1: and then covering with seven. So appropriately, when Kevin fancy

1061
00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:42,760
Speaker 1: kind of a Um scripts his first fifteen plays, maybe

1062
00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:46,320
Speaker 1: he's done an amazing job offensive staff of scripting plays

1063
00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:50,400
Speaker 1: and anticipating what the chess match move of the opposing

1064
00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:52,560
Speaker 1: defense is going to be against him. Those are the

1065
00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:55,160
Speaker 1: type of things I'd be looking for at the start

1066
00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:58,000
Speaker 1: of the game this Sunday. And I think one part

1067
00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:00,120
Speaker 1: of that chess match you mentioned, you know, rushing re

1068
00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:03,600
Speaker 1: dropping eight, having light boxes. This is a defense of

1069
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:07,560
Speaker 1: the Bengals that is very opponent specific. Two weeks ago

1070
00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:10,520
Speaker 1: they play Tennessee. They loaded up with a heavy box

1071
00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:14,120
Speaker 1: on sent of the snaps. Last week against Kansas City,

1072
00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:16,680
Speaker 1: they're worried about the past. They loaded the box just

1073
00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:19,880
Speaker 1: thirty percent of the time. So the Browns are probably

1074
00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:21,600
Speaker 1: somewhere in the middle of that, right, And so it's

1075
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:23,760
Speaker 1: gonna be a question of when do you catch them

1076
00:59:23,760 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 1: trying to stop Nick Chubb, who has been so good

1077
00:59:26,520 --> 00:59:28,640
Speaker 1: in his last three full games against them. He's had

1078
00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:31,000
Speaker 1: more than a hundred yards and two or more touchdowns

1079
00:59:31,040 --> 00:59:34,760
Speaker 1: all Brown's wins versus d Shaun and then trying to,

1080
00:59:34,840 --> 00:59:37,120
Speaker 1: as you said, spy him, keep him in the pocket,

1081
00:59:37,320 --> 00:59:39,440
Speaker 1: not let him make plays with the legs. How do

1082
00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:42,000
Speaker 1: you kind of see that chest match going. It feels

1083
00:59:42,040 --> 00:59:44,640
Speaker 1: to me, based on what we saw Bernie, that they're

1084
00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:47,880
Speaker 1: gonna be worried about Nick Chubb first and foremost, and

1085
00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:50,720
Speaker 1: probably Deshaun Watson second. And he's gonna have to throw

1086
00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:55,720
Speaker 1: them out of that. Yeah, And that's sometimes that lends

1087
00:59:55,760 --> 00:59:59,000
Speaker 1: itself towards having more guys in the box. Even though

1088
00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:01,680
Speaker 1: what I was saying of out to Shun and using

1089
01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:06,200
Speaker 1: his legs to run that. Unfortunately, um brings more guys

1090
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:09,920
Speaker 1: into the box too to stop Nick Chubban, Deshaun and

1091
01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:13,160
Speaker 1: or possible running plays in and around the line of

1092
01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:18,480
Speaker 1: scrimmage and stuff. So that's that's absolutely, that's absolutely a

1093
01:00:18,560 --> 01:00:21,400
Speaker 1: part of it right there. That um and when I

1094
01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:25,760
Speaker 1: had teams that were game plan specific and they were

1095
01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:29,919
Speaker 1: so extreme in their weekly game plans in a way,

1096
01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:33,120
Speaker 1: that didn't bother me because yes, I would script some

1097
01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:38,320
Speaker 1: generically neutral plays with multiple personnel groups and multiple motions

1098
01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:40,520
Speaker 1: and shifts to give them a dose of their own

1099
01:00:40,520 --> 01:00:46,280
Speaker 1: medicine early. So that typically causes um Amy's mental mistakes

1100
01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:49,920
Speaker 1: for the defense and stunt. But typically those type teams

1101
01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:53,480
Speaker 1: within the first quarter, Nathan and bo Boy, you're usually

1102
01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:56,400
Speaker 1: on top of what is their defenses to day, what

1103
01:00:56,520 --> 01:00:59,280
Speaker 1: is their personality today? What do they want to hold

1104
01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:03,840
Speaker 1: the hat on? I gee by one thirties on Sunday,

1105
01:01:04,120 --> 01:01:06,880
Speaker 1: you will have a flavor. We'll have a flavor for

1106
01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:10,480
Speaker 1: what Coach Blue has decided his defense of the day

1107
01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:13,840
Speaker 1: is gonna be. I will have studied it and we'll

1108
01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:18,880
Speaker 1: have game plan and specific plays and personal groups depending

1109
01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:22,800
Speaker 1: on they want to do. The three rush three spy

1110
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:27,000
Speaker 1: drop seven through the want to challenge and bring seven

1111
01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:29,880
Speaker 1: seven guys and stuff. I would go to search this

1112
01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:36,040
Speaker 1: upcoming weekend and pray for those type blitzes steady, but

1113
01:01:36,800 --> 01:01:41,160
Speaker 1: Steve Bengals have one. Hey, um, a half thousand covers

1114
01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:45,320
Speaker 1: zero blitzes a game every game this year. I'd live

1115
01:01:45,680 --> 01:01:48,439
Speaker 1: for those blitzes. We want to eat those a love

1116
01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:51,360
Speaker 1: look for those type of challenges, for those type of

1117
01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:56,880
Speaker 1: opportunities to present challenges the defense. So looking for the opportunities.

1118
01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:59,880
Speaker 1: There are long plays now teams by December, it's really

1119
01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:04,000
Speaker 1: hard to trick him. So coach Tefanski, college fan pel Chat,

1120
01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:09,160
Speaker 1: our whole staff, they done an impeccable job of game

1121
01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:13,600
Speaker 1: planning and is gonna do I'll be honored for that.

1122
01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:17,280
Speaker 1: So having to pay him whatever he decides to do,

1123
01:02:17,320 --> 01:02:21,160
Speaker 1: you have a pathway for how you want to attack it. Bernie.

1124
01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:24,800
Speaker 1: You know that their quarterback is pretty unflappable. Um, he

1125
01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:27,720
Speaker 1: was really cool customer in the fourth quarter against Kansas City,

1126
01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:31,160
Speaker 1: and yet we've had success against him. Has not beaten

1127
01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:33,400
Speaker 1: the Browns when Burrow has been the quarterback. He was

1128
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:35,560
Speaker 1: asked today what's the biggest difference between the Browns and

1129
01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:37,080
Speaker 1: everybody else, and he goes, well, it starts with the

1130
01:02:37,080 --> 01:02:40,000
Speaker 1: fact that they have Miles Garrett, what what are what are?

1131
01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:42,479
Speaker 1: What do you do with somebody who is is cool?

1132
01:02:42,560 --> 01:02:46,160
Speaker 1: A customers? Burrow? And how do you hope Joe Woods

1133
01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:51,480
Speaker 1: tries to rattle him Sunday? Yeah, I love I love

1134
01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:54,240
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow. I love how he's playing and watching the

1135
01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:57,919
Speaker 1: end of the Kansas City game, got the clus third

1136
01:02:58,000 --> 01:03:00,800
Speaker 1: down throw, the coolness, the way he sticks it in

1137
01:03:00,840 --> 01:03:06,919
Speaker 1: there on over the middle with perfectness is really impressive

1138
01:03:07,240 --> 01:03:12,400
Speaker 1: to watch. Um also unfortunately for USh Browns, but they

1139
01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:15,600
Speaker 1: are peaking again at the right time. I also, unfortunately

1140
01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:19,840
Speaker 1: wats his post I post conference on the eye of

1141
01:03:19,840 --> 01:03:24,120
Speaker 1: the Tiger and his you know, the tone in his voice.

1142
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:29,400
Speaker 1: They possibly are creating something very special and and in Cincinnati,

1143
01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:32,280
Speaker 1: so that if I'm a Bengals fan, I'm actually in

1144
01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:37,120
Speaker 1: a happy, festive mode where they are right right now

1145
01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:42,320
Speaker 1: from from that perspective of it. But what I really

1146
01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:45,920
Speaker 1: liked against Houston last week, and I can't I don't

1147
01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:49,280
Speaker 1: even want to put Houston and and Alan and then

1148
01:03:49,320 --> 01:03:53,000
Speaker 1: the same breath and Cincinnati and Joe Burrow and stuff.

1149
01:03:53,640 --> 01:03:57,720
Speaker 1: But the way and so Burrow mentioned Miles Garrett. I

1150
01:03:57,760 --> 01:04:01,240
Speaker 1: bet you that's the direct reflection in the way that

1151
01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:03,760
Speaker 1: Joe Woods had him moving around last week. You know,

1152
01:04:04,280 --> 01:04:07,160
Speaker 1: rust on the west side, from the right side. There

1153
01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:10,720
Speaker 1: are times in the Houston game where monst was over

1154
01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:14,680
Speaker 1: the center. So now from the Bengals and on preparation

1155
01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:19,120
Speaker 1: this week, guarantee you Monday's honest playing mins Garrett could

1156
01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:22,400
Speaker 1: be starts on the left started, it could be at

1157
01:04:22,440 --> 01:04:26,440
Speaker 1: the right ends last week in the middle, over the center,

1158
01:04:26,520 --> 01:04:30,840
Speaker 1: over or so the whole week will be pass protesting

1159
01:04:31,040 --> 01:04:36,880
Speaker 1: for Joe Brow talking about identify and sliding the line

1160
01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:41,560
Speaker 1: or whatever protection scheme they come up with towards that

1161
01:04:41,800 --> 01:04:44,640
Speaker 1: is myself, that's kind of cool. That does even me

1162
01:04:44,680 --> 01:04:47,720
Speaker 1: as a quarterback when I was playing, UM, even though

1163
01:04:47,760 --> 01:04:51,960
Speaker 1: I wouldn't worry about Lawrence Taylor, Reggie White, Bruce Smith's

1164
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:55,160
Speaker 1: and guys like that, I wouldn't say it during the week. UM,

1165
01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:57,920
Speaker 1: I would compliment him and stuff, but you know business

1166
01:04:58,200 --> 01:05:00,520
Speaker 1: to know that he's thinking about it and that that's

1167
01:05:00,560 --> 01:05:05,280
Speaker 1: something in his mind. Is the is something that uh

1168
01:05:06,120 --> 01:05:08,800
Speaker 1: from a Brown's perspective, I like and also I love

1169
01:05:09,160 --> 01:05:13,960
Speaker 1: how uh Chase Let's talking about Then would being the

1170
01:05:14,040 --> 01:05:18,040
Speaker 1: toughest defensive act that he's that covers him and man

1171
01:05:18,080 --> 01:05:22,160
Speaker 1: to man defense, and Benzel almost had another pick last

1172
01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:25,600
Speaker 1: week on man coverage, cutting across and undercutting an over

1173
01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:32,439
Speaker 1: route um. Last year's Karen was was absolutely a game

1174
01:05:32,560 --> 01:05:35,640
Speaker 1: changing play early in that game. Those type of plays,

1175
01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:38,520
Speaker 1: those type of demons I hope end up staying in

1176
01:05:39,040 --> 01:05:42,360
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow's head for at least one more, one more

1177
01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:45,439
Speaker 1: game to get us to five and oh against Joe

1178
01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:48,720
Speaker 1: Burrow and the Bengals, you would be great. Burrow two

1179
01:05:48,720 --> 01:05:51,040
Speaker 1: turnovers in each of the last two games against the Browns.

1180
01:05:51,200 --> 01:05:53,400
Speaker 1: Miles is in his head because he's got a sack

1181
01:05:53,440 --> 01:05:55,680
Speaker 1: in five straight versus Cincinnati, one and a half in

1182
01:05:55,720 --> 01:05:59,640
Speaker 1: each of the last two games against Burrow. Personally, what's

1183
01:05:59,640 --> 01:06:02,360
Speaker 1: amazing as the Browns they sacked Borrow five times, and

1184
01:06:02,400 --> 01:06:04,360
Speaker 1: they have in each of his last two starts against

1185
01:06:04,360 --> 01:06:06,760
Speaker 1: the Browns, but since that Week eight game, he's only

1186
01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:09,479
Speaker 1: been sacked five times total in five games. There's something

1187
01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:12,440
Speaker 1: about styles make the fights. The Browns have had the

1188
01:06:12,520 --> 01:06:15,360
Speaker 1: answer so far. But Bernie wanted to ask you real

1189
01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:17,760
Speaker 1: quickly about some a G. P. Ryan. It feels like

1190
01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:20,760
Speaker 1: he has given them some juice out of the backfield

1191
01:06:20,800 --> 01:06:22,720
Speaker 1: in the past game. And that's not to take anything

1192
01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:24,640
Speaker 1: away from Mixing, who had one of the best games

1193
01:06:24,680 --> 01:06:26,640
Speaker 1: you'll ever see two hundred eleven total yards and five

1194
01:06:26,640 --> 01:06:29,800
Speaker 1: touchdowns against Carolina week nine and has been very good

1195
01:06:29,840 --> 01:06:32,520
Speaker 1: for his career against the Browns eighteen total yards a game.

1196
01:06:32,560 --> 01:06:35,120
Speaker 1: But it feels like p Ryan scored three times out

1197
01:06:35,120 --> 01:06:37,720
Speaker 1: of the backfield catching the ball against Pittsburgh a hundred

1198
01:06:37,720 --> 01:06:40,240
Speaker 1: and fifty five total last week a career high against

1199
01:06:40,280 --> 01:06:43,200
Speaker 1: Kansas City, that he's added something because in that first

1200
01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:45,000
Speaker 1: game they checked it down to Mixing a lot, but

1201
01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:48,080
Speaker 1: we just gang tackled, vice tackled, and they didn't get anything.

1202
01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:51,160
Speaker 1: How does p Ryan affect this game if he gets

1203
01:06:51,160 --> 01:06:54,880
Speaker 1: a lot of work again. Yeah, damn, Nathan, you're so

1204
01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:59,400
Speaker 1: spot on, and you're making my my Browns positiveness way

1205
01:06:59,480 --> 01:07:04,280
Speaker 1: worse for Goes. I'm saying that he's he's doing fantastic

1206
01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:06,840
Speaker 1: in one of the flaws. I think that since THENTY

1207
01:07:06,880 --> 01:07:10,040
Speaker 1: he's done against us in their last couple of games

1208
01:07:10,160 --> 01:07:12,960
Speaker 1: is they have run the ball enough. We've talked that

1209
01:07:13,160 --> 01:07:17,120
Speaker 1: left list there about our struggles defensively stopping the run.

1210
01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:21,520
Speaker 1: Um I talked earlier in this segment about the first game,

1211
01:07:21,640 --> 01:07:25,040
Speaker 1: are too deep five under man coverage that we did

1212
01:07:25,480 --> 01:07:29,360
Speaker 1: UM specifically against the Bengals last time. UM, we did

1213
01:07:29,400 --> 01:07:32,640
Speaker 1: that UM at least a handful of occasions three to

1214
01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:35,600
Speaker 1: five times on third and two, three, four and five

1215
01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:40,360
Speaker 1: in that Bengals game. UM. That lends itself to really

1216
01:07:40,440 --> 01:07:42,560
Speaker 1: they should not have been throwing the ball against that.

1217
01:07:42,600 --> 01:07:44,760
Speaker 1: They should have been running a ball against that. When

1218
01:07:44,760 --> 01:07:48,760
Speaker 1: they reflected and watched the game tape, UM, they probably

1219
01:07:49,120 --> 01:07:52,080
Speaker 1: checked himself and and made that mental note to him

1220
01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:55,440
Speaker 1: now that not running mixing as much back game, and

1221
01:07:55,480 --> 01:07:58,240
Speaker 1: now you have you know, you have the other back

1222
01:07:58,400 --> 01:08:01,560
Speaker 1: Ryan running so good. Now you have ahing weapon that

1223
01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:06,120
Speaker 1: not only you see great outside UM outside running rounds

1224
01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:09,040
Speaker 1: and stuff, it's also a style strong runner and stuff.

1225
01:08:09,080 --> 01:08:14,000
Speaker 1: So I honestly think we should expect is Um a

1226
01:08:14,080 --> 01:08:16,560
Speaker 1: little more running out of them in those situations of

1227
01:08:16,680 --> 01:08:21,599
Speaker 1: this game, because they they they failed throwing the balls

1228
01:08:21,600 --> 01:08:24,679
Speaker 1: of those top tier receivers in the first game. Bernie,

1229
01:08:24,680 --> 01:08:28,040
Speaker 1: you're the best pal. Takes your time, buddy, this big

1230
01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:32,920
Speaker 1: game this week. You matter, go Browns, Browns, the great

1231
01:08:32,920 --> 01:08:35,320
Speaker 1: Bernie Cozar. Yes, it is a very big one. Nothing

1232
01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:38,599
Speaker 1: quite like tailgating, touchdowns and twisted tea tastes just like realized.

1233
01:08:38,760 --> 01:08:41,120
Speaker 1: You know why. It's made with real brewd t cool, refreshing,

1236
01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:49,200
Speaker 1: the Bengals coming up next to revisit them. At least

1237
01:08:49,400 --> 01:08:51,799

1245
01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:51,000
Speaker 1: for you. How many pop quiz for both of you?

1246
01:09:51,360 --> 01:09:56,479
Speaker 1: How many touchdowns of forty plus yards does Jamaar Chase

1247
01:09:56,520 --> 01:09:59,680
Speaker 1: have since being into the league. You probably have touchdowns

1248
01:09:59,680 --> 01:10:03,200
Speaker 1: this se season. No, no, no career. Oh god, I

1249
01:10:03,240 --> 01:10:06,200
Speaker 1: don't know the I know Burrow since sixteen forty yard

1250
01:10:06,200 --> 01:10:10,040
Speaker 1: touchdown passes. Chase has eleven receptions of forty yards, but

1251
01:10:10,040 --> 01:10:13,519
Speaker 1: they're not all touchdowns. Yes, eleven receptions, Yeah, you have

1252
01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:18,519
Speaker 1: that right, Okay, I knew boards ready the back back,

1253
01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:21,200
Speaker 1: the back is ready. Yeah, yeah, they are. They are

1254
01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:24,840
Speaker 1: bombs over bagdad. Oh yeah, yeah. He leads the league

1255
01:10:24,920 --> 01:10:27,920
Speaker 1: him and sixteen touchdowns. Him and Cooper Cupper tied with

1256
01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:32,080
Speaker 1: eleven borrow sixteen touchdowns of forty or more yards. Sixteen.

1257
01:10:33,160 --> 01:10:35,639
Speaker 1: That's a lot. That's a lot, man, that's a lot.

1258
01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:38,880
Speaker 1: Wasn't even a full season for him, Yeah, that's true.

1259
01:10:38,920 --> 01:10:41,280
Speaker 1: He was done here. Twenty one was a full season,

1260
01:10:42,120 --> 01:10:46,799
Speaker 1: and then this year, so that's basically eight a season.

1261
01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:49,160
Speaker 1: He's averaging won every two games, basically a forty yard

1262
01:10:49,160 --> 01:10:52,960
Speaker 1: touchdown base bomb crazy. He's good, they're good, and they're

1263
01:10:52,960 --> 01:10:55,599
Speaker 1: playing their best ball. Right now. I'm gonna throw this

1264
01:10:55,640 --> 01:10:58,680
Speaker 1: out there. Give it's probably way off, probably frowned upon.

1265
01:10:59,760 --> 01:11:01,920
Speaker 1: I feel like the Bengals are winning in spite of

1266
01:11:01,960 --> 01:11:06,479
Speaker 1: their coach. Most people down there thing to have an

1267
01:11:06,479 --> 01:11:09,720
Speaker 1: extreme amount of town. Most people think that too. Um,

1268
01:11:10,400 --> 01:11:11,559
Speaker 1: I mean to give you I think what I think

1269
01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:13,960
Speaker 1: the big difference is the PFF people definitely think that

1270
01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:18,160
Speaker 1: that they're that they're getting very little and schematic advantages. Um.

1271
01:11:18,240 --> 01:11:21,040
Speaker 1: I do think one thing is very different between them

1272
01:11:21,360 --> 01:11:25,400
Speaker 1: and the Chargers is their quarterback. And I don't know

1273
01:11:25,439 --> 01:11:26,920
Speaker 1: the charge of situation as well as I know the

1274
01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:30,920
Speaker 1: Cincinnati one. The quarterback in Cincinnati believes in the coach

1275
01:11:31,760 --> 01:11:34,160
Speaker 1: and so he takes the marching orders and is on

1276
01:11:34,240 --> 01:11:37,200
Speaker 1: with it like there's a very collaborative approach to it.

1277
01:11:37,240 --> 01:11:38,880
Speaker 1: Is it getting the most at a borough in their talent?

1278
01:11:39,400 --> 01:11:42,479
Speaker 1: Most would argue no, not, but what he is asking

1279
01:11:42,520 --> 01:11:44,519
Speaker 1: them to do, they they do execute it at a

1280
01:11:44,520 --> 01:11:48,080
Speaker 1: almost flawless level, and that's probably the difference between them

1281
01:11:48,080 --> 01:11:49,639
Speaker 1: and the Chargers. But I don't think you're far off.

1282
01:11:49,640 --> 01:11:53,080
Speaker 1: Most people think that down there too. Yep. No, well,

1283
01:11:53,120 --> 01:11:57,640
Speaker 1: and part of it's there play action, passing s pre

1284
01:11:57,720 --> 01:12:00,880
Speaker 1: snap motion, so that is speaks to the lack of

1285
01:12:00,920 --> 01:12:04,240
Speaker 1: schematic advantage that's gained there. Now for the season, seventy

1286
01:12:05,240 --> 01:12:07,439
Speaker 1: in shotgun, which is six they're actually more than the

1287
01:12:07,560 --> 01:12:10,880
Speaker 1: nineties though after the first few weeks the preestap motion

1288
01:12:10,920 --> 01:12:13,200
Speaker 1: of four percent that is up since week eight, so

1289
01:12:13,240 --> 01:12:15,680
Speaker 1: they are starting to use that more to try to

1290
01:12:15,720 --> 01:12:19,160
Speaker 1: help out Joe Burrow. Burrow since Week three, eight and

1291
01:12:19,200 --> 01:12:21,240
Speaker 1: two hundred and eleven point four, rating first in the

1292
01:12:21,320 --> 01:12:23,639
Speaker 1: NFL in that time, the series second and complete percentage

1293
01:12:23,640 --> 01:12:26,400
Speaker 1: second in yards, second in touchdowns, fifth in rating. Was

1294
01:12:26,439 --> 01:12:28,920
Speaker 1: the FC offensive Player of the week last week were

1295
01:12:28,960 --> 01:12:33,000
Speaker 1: against Kansas City. Completions two six yards, two touchdowns, ran

1296
01:12:33,120 --> 01:12:36,719
Speaker 1: for forty six and a touchdown on the ground as well.

1297
01:12:37,160 --> 01:12:39,000
Speaker 1: And how about this, not to get anybody too scared,

1298
01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:41,240
Speaker 1: but Burrow in six games this year where he's had

1299
01:12:41,240 --> 01:12:43,680
Speaker 1: Tea Higgins and Chase for the majority of a game

1300
01:12:43,720 --> 01:12:46,680
Speaker 1: at least thirty offensive snaps each, they are five and one.

1301
01:12:46,760 --> 01:12:49,240
Speaker 1: The only loss was Week two to Dallas. Burrow three

1302
01:12:49,640 --> 01:12:52,360
Speaker 1: five yards per game, fourteen touchdowns, no interceptions and a

1303
01:12:53,000 --> 01:12:57,200
Speaker 1: twenty rating. Well, he Dinny did not have Chase last

1304
01:12:57,200 --> 01:12:59,200
Speaker 1: time against US. In fact, the Browns held Chase Chase

1305
01:12:59,280 --> 01:13:03,200
Speaker 1: under fifty yards in both games, an interception on target

1306
01:13:03,240 --> 01:13:06,400
Speaker 1: to him pick six. He also lost a fumble in

1307
01:13:06,439 --> 01:13:09,320
Speaker 1: that game as well. But Tee Higgins has played great

1308
01:13:09,320 --> 01:13:11,559
Speaker 1: the last three nine in catches to nine and two

1309
01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:14,640
Speaker 1: touchdowns Tyler Boyd. He has been scored in three the

1310
01:13:14,680 --> 01:13:17,000
Speaker 1: last four against the Browns. In fact, his last touchdowns

1311
01:13:17,040 --> 01:13:19,719
Speaker 1: this year was against the Browns in Week eight. Um,

1312
01:13:19,760 --> 01:13:24,439
Speaker 1: this is a talented team. Burrow is sustainable to very good. Yeah,

1313
01:13:24,479 --> 01:13:26,600
Speaker 1: you know, I mean the receivers are all locked in.

1314
01:13:26,680 --> 01:13:29,439
Speaker 1: They're there, they're young, they can grow with Burrow. Um.

1315
01:13:29,720 --> 01:13:31,880
Speaker 1: They they're able to kind of piece meal it together

1316
01:13:31,920 --> 01:13:34,000
Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the ball. But everybody knows

1317
01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:36,120
Speaker 1: what they're doing their own in the same direction. See

1318
01:13:36,120 --> 01:13:38,120
Speaker 1: how many times we do one of these meet or

1319
01:13:38,160 --> 01:13:40,880
Speaker 1: revisit the team. One thing that I always look at

1320
01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:43,200
Speaker 1: is where do they rank offensively? Where do they rank defensively?

1321
01:13:43,200 --> 01:13:45,080
Speaker 1: And if they're in the top ten or around the

1322
01:13:45,080 --> 01:13:46,800
Speaker 1: top ten in both, they're usually a team we could

1323
01:13:46,800 --> 01:13:50,439
Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl their fifth and offense twelfth and defense. Yeah,

1324
01:13:50,479 --> 01:13:52,799
Speaker 1: and I would say that their defense has been buying

1325
01:13:52,920 --> 01:13:55,240
Speaker 1: large better of late now. They did give up thirty

1326
01:13:55,320 --> 01:13:57,559
Speaker 1: in the win over the Steelers twenty one, though those

1327
01:13:57,560 --> 01:13:59,960
Speaker 1: were all blowuts. They basically had blanked Caroline up six

1328
01:14:00,040 --> 01:14:03,080
Speaker 1: team to Tennessee twenty four against the Chiefs. That's pretty good.

1329
01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:05,639
Speaker 1: You know. The Browns scored a season I thirty two

1330
01:14:05,680 --> 01:14:07,640
Speaker 1: against them this year, were the only team to to

1331
01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:10,320
Speaker 1: get north of thirty points of Steelers hit thirty exactly.

1332
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:13,479
Speaker 1: It's a good defense Againting DJ Readers back back has

1333
01:14:13,479 --> 01:14:15,960
Speaker 1: been helpful since he's returned to the fold for them. Uh.

1334
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:18,759
Speaker 1: They are actually giving up just three point six yards

1335
01:14:18,840 --> 01:14:21,240
Speaker 1: per carry with him on the field, which would be

1336
01:14:21,280 --> 01:14:25,880
Speaker 1: top three in the NFL. UM, they are covering well.

1337
01:14:26,200 --> 01:14:29,280
Speaker 1: Von Bell is responsible for five turnovers. He's got four picks,

1338
01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:32,000
Speaker 1: which is tied for fourth in the league. Hendrickson and Hubbard,

1339
01:14:32,200 --> 01:14:34,400
Speaker 1: you know, they have a combined eleven and a half sacks,

1340
01:14:34,640 --> 01:14:38,120
Speaker 1: but Hendrickson is number two in the NFL and pressures. Um.

1341
01:14:38,160 --> 01:14:40,040
Speaker 1: What's interesting is those who have eleven and a half

1342
01:14:40,040 --> 01:14:42,320
Speaker 1: sex the rest of the team has seven and a half.

1343
01:14:42,360 --> 01:14:45,320
Speaker 1: So they're kind of a a two horse pony two

1344
01:14:45,360 --> 01:14:49,920
Speaker 1: torsa squad. There were a Miles squad. I mean, nobody

1345
01:14:49,920 --> 01:14:51,720
Speaker 1: else has more than three on our team. He's got

1346
01:14:51,760 --> 01:14:54,240
Speaker 1: ten UM and leads the league with fifty two pressures

1347
01:14:54,280 --> 01:14:57,280
Speaker 1: according to Next Gen Stats. It's a good team, solid

1348
01:14:57,280 --> 01:15:00,920
Speaker 1: special teams. McPherson is good, Huber's a solid punter. Um.

1349
01:15:01,040 --> 01:15:04,720
Speaker 1: They are their Their young secondary is playing better than

1350
01:15:04,760 --> 01:15:07,360
Speaker 1: I think they would have thought initially. Uh. And now

1351
01:15:07,400 --> 01:15:09,599
Speaker 1: the Browns annihilated them, but they figured it out since

1352
01:15:09,680 --> 01:15:11,760
Speaker 1: And as I said before, you know, Amari Cooper is

1353
01:15:11,800 --> 01:15:13,719
Speaker 1: the last one hundred yard receiver that they have allowed,

1354
01:15:13,720 --> 01:15:15,720
Speaker 1: and he went for a season high hundred and thirty one.

1355
01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:18,400
Speaker 1: Nick Chubb is the only one yard rusher they've allowed.

1356
01:15:18,439 --> 01:15:20,679
Speaker 1: They have not allowed a three hundred yard passer this year.

1357
01:15:20,800 --> 01:15:22,800
Speaker 1: They have not allowed a starting quarterback to throw for

1358
01:15:22,800 --> 01:15:25,200
Speaker 1: two touchdowns against them. Uh, you know, the only when

1359
01:15:25,200 --> 01:15:27,760
Speaker 1: the King was in a blowout where Baker relieved p J.

1360
01:15:27,960 --> 01:15:30,400
Speaker 1: Walker and I think p J Walker had like nine

1361
01:15:30,479 --> 01:15:33,680
Speaker 1: yards in the first half of that game. Um, So

1362
01:15:33,800 --> 01:15:38,400
Speaker 1: they're they're very good styles make the fights, just as

1363
01:15:38,400 --> 01:15:40,080
Speaker 1: they seem to have the number of Mahmes and the

1364
01:15:40,120 --> 01:15:42,440
Speaker 1: Chiefs we seem to have their number. Will that continue?

1365
01:15:42,680 --> 01:15:45,360
Speaker 1: We'll see. He's obviously very cognizant of Miles Garrett is

1366
01:15:45,439 --> 01:15:49,519
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow oh and four career against the Brown completions

1367
01:15:49,520 --> 01:15:52,519
Speaker 1: three nine yards per game, eight touchdowns, four picks and

1368
01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:54,519
Speaker 1: nine three rating. Three of those four picks in the

1369
01:15:54,600 --> 01:16:00,040
Speaker 1: last two games. Coincidentally give me to a point. I

1370
01:16:00,040 --> 01:16:04,880
Speaker 1: I think the Bengals have switched punters. Huber is gone

1371
01:16:06,040 --> 01:16:11,799
Speaker 1: h Bengals signed Drew Chrisman off the team's practice squad.

1372
01:16:13,040 --> 01:16:17,160
Speaker 1: They waived Huber and then resigned him today to their

1373
01:16:17,160 --> 01:16:20,000
Speaker 1: practice squad. They have made some moves here in the

1374
01:16:20,080 --> 01:16:24,479
Speaker 1: last twenty four hours with their punters. Huber, I mean,

1375
01:16:24,600 --> 01:16:27,240
Speaker 1: he's played in the team record two sixteen games. He

1376
01:16:27,320 --> 01:16:31,920
Speaker 1: was waived on Monday, late day Monday, and then they

1377
01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:34,760
Speaker 1: just resigned him to the practice squad. But they elevated

1378
01:16:34,800 --> 01:16:38,639
Speaker 1: the kid from Ohio State and he's living. He's listed

1379
01:16:38,720 --> 01:16:43,559
Speaker 1: on their still is their punter in their release. This

1380
01:16:43,680 --> 01:16:46,160
Speaker 1: is the whole second or seventh to nine ten this morning.

1381
01:16:47,479 --> 01:16:52,720
Speaker 1: The thing that that is, uh, you know, Burrow has

1382
01:16:52,760 --> 01:16:56,240
Speaker 1: been a one man culture tornado there. He's changed everything,

1383
01:16:56,720 --> 01:17:01,479
Speaker 1: the whole operation. Uh, it's very I mean without that,

1384
01:17:01,680 --> 01:17:04,519
Speaker 1: it's very similar to you know, like when Lebron got

1385
01:17:04,520 --> 01:17:06,959
Speaker 1: to the Calves or whatever. Like it's it just changed

1386
01:17:07,520 --> 01:17:12,160
Speaker 1: outlook of ownership, approach of ownership, outlook of franchise, feeling

1387
01:17:12,200 --> 01:17:15,080
Speaker 1: of franchise. He's done all of it, and it's it

1388
01:17:15,240 --> 01:17:19,160
Speaker 1: is interesting because when he has the ball in his

1389
01:17:19,280 --> 01:17:22,760
Speaker 1: hand late you expect him to win. I felt that

1390
01:17:22,880 --> 01:17:26,000
Speaker 1: against Kansas City watching on Sunday, thinking well he I mean,

1391
01:17:26,400 --> 01:17:28,639
Speaker 1: he's gonna get this first down, even the third and eleven,

1392
01:17:28,680 --> 01:17:31,720
Speaker 1: he put it in a size of a needle. I mean,

1393
01:17:31,760 --> 01:17:33,800
Speaker 1: it was nothing to put it. There was no it

1394
01:17:33,880 --> 01:17:36,599
Speaker 1: was perfect. It was flawless, as Bernie said too. And

1395
01:17:36,680 --> 01:17:40,439
Speaker 1: yet for whatever reason, he's flappable by us. Now, the

1396
01:17:40,439 --> 01:17:42,800
Speaker 1: thing that makes me a little uncomfortable about that is

1397
01:17:42,840 --> 01:17:46,960
Speaker 1: he knows that, right. So it's kind of something that

1398
01:17:47,040 --> 01:17:49,560
Speaker 1: my guess is they're pretty focused on down there to

1399
01:17:49,640 --> 01:17:51,479
Speaker 1: put an end to this run. Now, maybe you just

1400
01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:54,719
Speaker 1: really have his number, but they are certainly well aware

1401
01:17:54,960 --> 01:17:57,880
Speaker 1: that they have success against everybody, including Patrick Mahomes three

1402
01:17:57,880 --> 01:18:01,160
Speaker 1: in a row, and do not against the Browns. It's

1403
01:18:01,200 --> 01:18:03,240
Speaker 1: a wild thing. It is wild thing, but if you're

1404
01:18:03,240 --> 01:18:05,240
Speaker 1: a Browns fan, it's a good thing. And now you've

1405
01:18:05,280 --> 01:18:08,040
Speaker 1: got to go ahead and and keep it going. Your

1406
01:18:08,040 --> 01:18:11,200
Speaker 1: season is very much on the line. Your ability to

1407
01:18:11,240 --> 01:18:13,519
Speaker 1: stay in the race in this division, your ability to

1408
01:18:13,560 --> 01:18:16,160
Speaker 1: stay in the playoff picture depends on you going down

1409
01:18:16,160 --> 01:18:19,200
Speaker 1: there and doing what you have done in two thousand

1410
01:18:19,200 --> 01:18:22,080
Speaker 1: and twenty in Cincinnati, in two thousand and Cincinnati and

1411
01:18:22,080 --> 01:18:24,160
Speaker 1: and hopefully this year, which is to go down to

1412
01:18:24,160 --> 01:18:26,519
Speaker 1: Cincinnati and get a win. It's gonna be really critical

1413
01:18:26,600 --> 01:18:29,559
Speaker 1: that we emotionally stay within ourselves and then we start quick,

1414
01:18:29,560 --> 01:18:32,600
Speaker 1: because that allows them to be like, yes, here we

1415
01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:35,360
Speaker 1: go again, Miles can pin the years back. They will

1416
01:18:35,400 --> 01:18:39,479
Speaker 1: abandon the run quickly. Um, to your point, they've been

1417
01:18:39,479 --> 01:18:41,559
Speaker 1: better with p run, but they will. They are quick

1418
01:18:41,600 --> 01:18:44,639
Speaker 1: to let's huck chuck football at fifty two times. They're

1419
01:18:44,680 --> 01:18:47,240
Speaker 1: not afraid to do that. Go ahead, give it. It's

1420
01:18:47,320 --> 01:18:52,280
Speaker 1: interesting because the Bengals, I think we talked about it yesterday.

1421
01:18:52,920 --> 01:18:59,360
Speaker 1: Their last five games are brutal, and they got Buffalo

1422
01:18:59,439 --> 01:19:04,640
Speaker 1: and they Baltimore at New England I'm sorry, home for

1423
01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:08,599
Speaker 1: US at Tampa at New England, Home for Buffalo, home

1424
01:19:08,680 --> 01:19:11,840
Speaker 1: for Baltimore. I mean, they're tied with Baltimore for that

1425
01:19:11,920 --> 01:19:14,479
Speaker 1: top spot. They've got a couple of game lead on

1426
01:19:14,640 --> 01:19:19,320
Speaker 1: US and the Squealers. But you know, yeah, I I

1427
01:19:19,840 --> 01:19:23,120
Speaker 1: this this game is very very important to them with

1428
01:19:23,280 --> 01:19:25,519
Speaker 1: everything they have coming up. I'll tell you right now,

1429
01:19:25,560 --> 01:19:28,080
Speaker 1: from their perspective, obviously they expect to beat us. They'll

1430
01:19:28,120 --> 01:19:30,880
Speaker 1: be favored in the game. Um, they expect to beat

1431
01:19:30,920 --> 01:19:35,440
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay. They'll they have Tampa Bay after that, US, Pittsburgh,

1432
01:19:35,439 --> 01:19:39,240
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay. It's US then at Tampa, then at New England,

1433
01:19:39,320 --> 01:19:41,799
Speaker 1: New England at New England. That's right. So they expect

1434
01:19:41,800 --> 01:19:44,559
Speaker 1: to win those three and their expectation as they'll play

1435
01:19:44,600 --> 01:19:47,559
Speaker 1: Buffalo the second the last week for perhaps home field

1436
01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:50,439
Speaker 1: in the a f C, and then they would potentially

1437
01:19:50,439 --> 01:19:52,840
Speaker 1: play for the f C North against Baltimore the following week.

1438
01:19:53,200 --> 01:19:56,320
Speaker 1: That's there. That's the idea down there, and you understand

1439
01:19:56,320 --> 01:19:57,760
Speaker 1: it because the way that they planned what they did

1440
01:19:57,760 --> 01:20:00,519
Speaker 1: a year ago. It's a full day, but the matchup

1441
01:20:00,520 --> 01:20:03,120
Speaker 1: has been good for us, there's no questioning that. Coming

1442

1454
01:20:43,640 --> 01:20:46,240
Speaker 1: the one on one with cornerback Greg Newsome. Greg, how

1455
01:20:46,240 --> 01:20:48,000
Speaker 1: did it feel to get back out there against the

1456
01:20:48,040 --> 01:20:50,080
Speaker 1: Texans and get back to doing what you love to do?

1457
01:20:50,439 --> 01:20:53,040
Speaker 1: I felt great? Um. I hate watching from the sidelines

1458
01:20:53,080 --> 01:20:56,080
Speaker 1: obviously and having like a fluke engine on a Friday. Um,

1459
01:20:56,120 --> 01:20:58,080
Speaker 1: it sucks being out. I'd rather have got you know,

1460
01:20:58,120 --> 01:20:59,920
Speaker 1: obviously not hurd in the game, but rather hadn't been

1461
01:21:00,040 --> 01:21:02,240
Speaker 1: the game and that practice. So um, it felt good

1462
01:21:02,280 --> 01:21:04,519
Speaker 1: to get back out there. You guys are starting to

1463
01:21:04,520 --> 01:21:07,040
Speaker 1: play on the back and it feels like very good defense.

1464
01:21:07,400 --> 01:21:08,680
Speaker 1: And what do you think it's kind of been the

1465
01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:12,080
Speaker 1: secret to that kind of jelling that you were seeing now. Man,

1466
01:21:12,160 --> 01:21:13,800
Speaker 1: we just all realized, Man, if we want to turn

1467
01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:16,720
Speaker 1: this thing around, we have no choice, like every every

1468
01:21:16,720 --> 01:21:18,439
Speaker 1: game is a must win, and you know, we have

1469
01:21:18,560 --> 01:21:21,000
Speaker 1: to come together unless we wanted our season and just

1470
01:21:21,280 --> 01:21:23,360
Speaker 1: you know, be throwing out the window. But obviously see

1471
01:21:23,360 --> 01:21:25,439
Speaker 1: the guys are fighting. We're fighting. Um, I feel like

1472
01:21:25,439 --> 01:21:27,960
Speaker 1: we're jellling great on defense? How was the film room

1473
01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:30,880
Speaker 1: for you. I was. We didn't get to that play,

1474
01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:34,800
Speaker 1: thank god. Um, but um it was a good window. Um,

1475
01:21:35,080 --> 01:21:36,920
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of laughter just because we played

1476
01:21:36,960 --> 01:21:39,600
Speaker 1: so well. Obviously that was my first really one I

1477
01:21:39,640 --> 01:21:42,160
Speaker 1: got my hands on. But you know, I think, um,

1478
01:21:42,200 --> 01:21:44,719
Speaker 1: I think one will be coming in their future, no doubt.

1479
01:21:44,880 --> 01:21:46,479
Speaker 1: Was there a fine for that though? Is that? Did

1480
01:21:46,520 --> 01:21:48,720
Speaker 1: that fall into the fine category? Oh that's a big

1481
01:21:48,760 --> 01:21:51,479
Speaker 1: fun Yeah, that's a big fun. So but you know,

1482
01:21:51,520 --> 01:21:53,760
Speaker 1: you actually made a great break on the ball. You

1483
01:21:53,880 --> 01:21:55,360
Speaker 1: had a chance to get it. Maybe you would have

1484
01:21:55,360 --> 01:21:56,519
Speaker 1: gone to the house side of know, And then you

1485
01:21:56,520 --> 01:21:58,439
Speaker 1: look around your teammates you say, oh, the ball just

1486
01:21:58,479 --> 01:22:00,800
Speaker 1: pops into the air and falls into John Johnson's left

1487
01:22:00,880 --> 01:22:02,920
Speaker 1: Oh the ball just falls into Denzel he can walk

1488
01:22:03,000 --> 01:22:05,160
Speaker 1: for three yards for second touchdown of the year. The

1489
01:22:05,160 --> 01:22:07,000
Speaker 1: first way just fell on in the end zone. Be like,

1490
01:22:07,000 --> 01:22:10,320
Speaker 1: where's where's the love for Greg? Exactly? You know, underdog mentality.

1491
01:22:10,360 --> 01:22:12,839
Speaker 1: I gotta keep it that way. But yeah, I shouldn't.

1492
01:22:12,960 --> 01:22:14,800
Speaker 1: I shouldn't have dove. I should have just stayed up

1493
01:22:14,840 --> 01:22:17,160
Speaker 1: when I I did. Like what you said, because you're

1494
01:22:17,160 --> 01:22:19,080
Speaker 1: miked up this week and you're a very good I

1495
01:22:19,160 --> 01:22:21,559
Speaker 1: enjoy your micups. She said, It's like I was home.

1496
01:22:21,680 --> 01:22:23,320
Speaker 1: I wasn't home. I couldn't sign for it. Now I

1497
01:22:23,320 --> 01:22:25,439
Speaker 1: gotta go get I gotta go to the factory and

1498
01:22:25,439 --> 01:22:27,559
Speaker 1: get it. Yeah. I'm a big analogy guy, so you know,

1499
01:22:27,600 --> 01:22:29,960
Speaker 1: I think everything honestly happens for a reason. Um, and

1500
01:22:30,000 --> 01:22:31,920
Speaker 1: I think you know I'm gonna make a big play

1501
01:22:32,000 --> 01:22:34,120
Speaker 1: coming up here soon. Well, this week would be a

1502
01:22:34,120 --> 01:22:36,080
Speaker 1: great one. We know that there are some talk in

1503
01:22:36,120 --> 01:22:39,160
Speaker 1: the past about this matchup. Now Jamar Chason playing the

1504
01:22:39,200 --> 01:22:41,840
Speaker 1: first one. You guys season low thirteen points, get some

1505
01:22:41,920 --> 01:22:44,519
Speaker 1: turnovers in that one. I know that you're excited about

1506
01:22:44,560 --> 01:22:46,639
Speaker 1: this one. There a full strength word. Full strength should

1507
01:22:46,640 --> 01:22:48,640
Speaker 1: be a lot of fun, Yeah for sure. Um. You

1508
01:22:48,680 --> 01:22:50,680
Speaker 1: know they have a great receiving corps over there, so

1509
01:22:50,760 --> 01:22:52,920
Speaker 1: I'm it's definitely gonna be fun. But like I said

1510
01:22:52,960 --> 01:22:54,640
Speaker 1: in the previous matchup, I just feel like we have

1511
01:22:54,760 --> 01:22:57,720
Speaker 1: premium matchups on our side of the ball as well, So, um,

1512
01:22:57,760 --> 01:23:00,360
Speaker 1: it'll definitely be a lot of fun for you. What's

1513
01:23:00,400 --> 01:23:03,479
Speaker 1: the challenge of in a base defense playing outside and

1514
01:23:03,520 --> 01:23:05,960
Speaker 1: then in a nickel defense sliding inside and having a

1515
01:23:06,040 --> 01:23:09,040
Speaker 1: prep for both of those in every single week? Yeah,

1516
01:23:09,080 --> 01:23:11,760
Speaker 1: I mean it's just extra film study. I gotta really

1517
01:23:11,760 --> 01:23:13,400
Speaker 1: be on top of my stuff, you know, because most

1518
01:23:13,400 --> 01:23:15,840
Speaker 1: guys can just focus on, Okay, on the outside is around,

1519
01:23:15,880 --> 01:23:18,000
Speaker 1: so I'm getting me, I gotta focus on, you know,

1520
01:23:18,040 --> 01:23:20,479
Speaker 1: on the inside these around so I'm getting Um, I

1521
01:23:20,520 --> 01:23:22,519
Speaker 1: gotta know what runs are coming. I gotta know the

1522
01:23:22,560 --> 01:23:26,240
Speaker 1: past concepts, so I kind of gotta know really everything

1523
01:23:26,280 --> 01:23:28,400
Speaker 1: out there. Um, knowing where I gotta fit in the

1524
01:23:28,479 --> 01:23:31,040
Speaker 1: run and everything like that. So um, it's definitely been

1525
01:23:31,080 --> 01:23:33,240
Speaker 1: of a challenge. But you know, I obviously I think

1526
01:23:33,240 --> 01:23:35,200
Speaker 1: they put me in that position for a reason, just

1527
01:23:35,240 --> 01:23:37,599
Speaker 1: because I'm capable of doing it all. Is that one

1528
01:23:37,640 --> 01:23:40,240
Speaker 1: thing that people maybe don't realize is that you're actually

1529
01:23:40,280 --> 01:23:42,680
Speaker 1: kind of, in many cases an extra linebacker in the

1530
01:23:42,760 --> 01:23:44,479
Speaker 1: run game when you play the Nichols. Not just all

1531
01:23:44,479 --> 01:23:47,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna chase around their quick little slot receivers. It

1532
01:23:47,000 --> 01:23:49,519
Speaker 1: means I've got to be a big time contributor in

1533
01:23:49,560 --> 01:23:51,680
Speaker 1: the run game as well. Yeah, I think that's just

1534
01:23:51,720 --> 01:23:53,320
Speaker 1: some people don't know. You know. I feel like the

1535
01:23:53,320 --> 01:23:55,840
Speaker 1: outsiders kind of look at you know, past breakups and

1536
01:23:55,840 --> 01:23:58,960
Speaker 1: the stats, but um, you know, my job a lot

1537
01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:01,000
Speaker 1: of the time is I gotta in the run at first,

1538
01:24:01,200 --> 01:24:02,840
Speaker 1: then get to the past. So you know, it's a

1539
01:24:02,840 --> 01:24:04,680
Speaker 1: lot going on in one play for me, but you

1540
01:24:04,720 --> 01:24:06,559
Speaker 1: know I enjoy it. Um, I'm around the ball a

1541
01:24:06,560 --> 01:24:08,559
Speaker 1: lot more so, um fly, I can make a few

1542
01:24:08,560 --> 01:24:10,680
Speaker 1: more plays out there. Absolutely, that big play is coming.

1543
01:24:10,720 --> 01:24:12,559
Speaker 1: There's no doubt in my mind it's coming. It's coming soon.

1544
01:24:12,600 --> 01:24:14,800
Speaker 1: It's gonna be glorious when it does happen. I want

1545
01:24:14,840 --> 01:24:15,880
Speaker 1: to ask you about the end of the game. Look

1546
01:24:15,920 --> 01:24:17,759
Speaker 1: like you had a very nice embraced with Lovey Smith.

1547
01:24:18,000 --> 01:24:21,080
Speaker 1: What's that relationship and why is that special to you? Yeah,

1548
01:24:21,120 --> 01:24:24,280
Speaker 1: obviously you know love coach to Illinois. Um, he's been

1549
01:24:24,320 --> 01:24:27,479
Speaker 1: recruiting me since high school. Obviously I didn't go to Illinois,

1550
01:24:27,520 --> 01:24:29,400
Speaker 1: went to Northwestern, so I was still able to play

1551
01:24:29,439 --> 01:24:31,639
Speaker 1: against him. And then when you got the night back

1552
01:24:31,680 --> 01:24:33,599
Speaker 1: to the league, Like, that's just somebody like that I

1553
01:24:33,640 --> 01:24:38,080
Speaker 1: just respect so much. Obviously, belove is Chicago's Chicago Bears

1554
01:24:38,200 --> 01:24:40,920
Speaker 1: hair coach, so UM always followed him, and you know,

1555
01:24:41,000 --> 01:24:43,559
Speaker 1: we just always have a you know, a ton of

1556
01:24:43,640 --> 01:24:45,720
Speaker 1: mutual respect for each other. That's awesome. That's one of

1557
01:24:45,720 --> 01:24:47,519
Speaker 1: the cool things about the league, right And for somebody

1558
01:24:47,520 --> 01:24:50,200
Speaker 1: who gets recruited out of high school, you go to college,

1559
01:24:50,200 --> 01:24:51,680
Speaker 1: you play against them, then you see him down in

1560
01:24:51,720 --> 01:24:53,080
Speaker 1: the league and stuff like that. That's one of the

1561
01:24:53,120 --> 01:24:56,000
Speaker 1: new things about the evolution of your development from high

1562
01:24:56,040 --> 01:24:58,840
Speaker 1: school phenome college phenome to a pro. Yeah, I know,

1563
01:24:58,920 --> 01:25:01,000
Speaker 1: it's it's a great you know, seeing some of those

1564
01:25:01,000 --> 01:25:03,200
Speaker 1: coaches that I've played in the Big ten up in

1565
01:25:03,240 --> 01:25:05,320
Speaker 1: the next level and just seeing you know, a lot

1566
01:25:05,400 --> 01:25:07,200
Speaker 1: of the same guys and things. It's you know, it's

1567
01:25:07,240 --> 01:25:10,000
Speaker 1: a blessing and I really appreciate it. All right, what's

1568
01:25:10,040 --> 01:25:11,880
Speaker 1: the mood in this locker room right now? You guys?

1569
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:14,080
Speaker 1: We know that. Look, we've won two in a row,

1570
01:25:14,280 --> 01:25:16,640
Speaker 1: five and seven. Still a lot of work to do,

1571
01:25:16,800 --> 01:25:19,599
Speaker 1: still very little margin for air, but it feels like

1572
01:25:19,720 --> 01:25:22,439
Speaker 1: momentum wise, we're headed in a good direction for sure.

1573
01:25:22,560 --> 01:25:24,519
Speaker 1: But you know, we just all stay even killed. Never

1574
01:25:24,520 --> 01:25:26,720
Speaker 1: get too high, never get too low. Obviously, we're in

1575
01:25:26,760 --> 01:25:28,640
Speaker 1: the two game one streak, which is great, but you know,

1576
01:25:28,680 --> 01:25:30,400
Speaker 1: we kind of forget about that stuff in the past

1577
01:25:30,520 --> 01:25:32,760
Speaker 1: because none of that matters anymore. Like you said, every

1578
01:25:32,800 --> 01:25:34,439
Speaker 1: game from now on is a must win to get

1579
01:25:34,479 --> 01:25:36,439
Speaker 1: to the playoffs. So you know, we're just focused on

1580
01:25:36,479 --> 01:25:38,519
Speaker 1: this weekend. You know, focus at one play at a time.

1581
01:25:38,720 --> 01:25:39,960
Speaker 1: Why do you think you guys have had so much

1582
01:25:40,000 --> 01:25:43,639
Speaker 1: success against Burrow in the Bengals. Um? Like I said again,

1583
01:25:43,680 --> 01:25:46,160
Speaker 1: I think just like our strength and their strength. Um,

1584
01:25:46,439 --> 01:25:48,360
Speaker 1: I feel like we match up very very well with

1585
01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:50,600
Speaker 1: that team. Um. You know, I feel like our d

1586
01:25:50,720 --> 01:25:54,840
Speaker 1: line you know, does great against that team, linebackers and everything. So, um,

1587
01:25:54,920 --> 01:25:56,880
Speaker 1: I just feel like we match up very well with them.

1588
01:25:56,880 --> 01:25:59,519
Speaker 1: And you know we also got to protect this, you know,

1589
01:25:59,560 --> 01:26:01,800
Speaker 1: the state of Ohio. So um, that's something we always

1590
01:26:01,800 --> 01:26:04,240
Speaker 1: look forward to doing well. They say styles make the fights,

1591
01:26:04,240 --> 01:26:06,559
Speaker 1: and it feels like our style matches up well with theirs,

1592
01:26:06,560 --> 01:26:10,160
Speaker 1: which is what you're saying there. Oh yeah for sure. Linebackers.

1593
01:26:10,200 --> 01:26:13,880
Speaker 1: You mentioned that a walk goes down, Jacob Phillips goes down.

1594
01:26:13,880 --> 01:26:16,680
Speaker 1: Now Toc goes down, which brutal. Love that guy. He

1595
01:26:16,720 --> 01:26:19,439
Speaker 1: played great last time against the Bengals. Thirteen tackles, a

1596
01:26:19,520 --> 01:26:22,080
Speaker 1: sack of force, fumble. How do we replace that? And

1597
01:26:22,080 --> 01:26:23,960
Speaker 1: then who's going to be kind of the voice now

1598
01:26:24,360 --> 01:26:28,559
Speaker 1: of that defense? Yes, it's super hard, you know, obviously

1599
01:26:28,600 --> 01:26:30,719
Speaker 1: losing a walk was super hard. Then you lose another

1600
01:26:30,840 --> 01:26:33,920
Speaker 1: vocal leader and Jacob and now you lose another vocal

1601
01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:36,519
Speaker 1: leader in Taki, so um, it's definitely not gonna be

1602
01:26:36,560 --> 01:26:38,639
Speaker 1: easy at all. But um, you know, I think John

1603
01:26:38,680 --> 01:26:40,760
Speaker 1: has been doing a great job. He's been the one

1604
01:26:40,760 --> 01:26:42,800
Speaker 1: with the green dot calling the plays for the last

1605
01:26:42,880 --> 01:26:45,360
Speaker 1: you know, a few weeks. So he's definitely that, you know,

1606
01:26:45,640 --> 01:26:47,880
Speaker 1: very big vocal guy out there. But um, you know,

1607
01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:50,400
Speaker 1: we got a guy in Dion Jones who has played

1608
01:26:50,439 --> 01:26:53,080
Speaker 1: a bunch of football, so I think he's getting more comfortable.

1609
01:26:53,120 --> 01:26:54,600
Speaker 1: I think he was able to take more of a

1610
01:26:54,640 --> 01:26:57,000
Speaker 1: back seat and actually get to learn the entire defense.

1611
01:26:57,040 --> 01:26:59,360
Speaker 1: So um, I think he will definitely take you know

1612
01:26:59,439 --> 01:27:02,080
Speaker 1: that next for the for that linebacker corps. Is this

1613
01:27:02,120 --> 01:27:03,760
Speaker 1: one where you guys really want to put on a show.

1614
01:27:03,960 --> 01:27:06,280
Speaker 1: Oh for sure, I tell you this the game I schedule.

1615
01:27:06,400 --> 01:27:08,160
Speaker 1: I mean I circling the schedule every sing. Are you

1616
01:27:08,520 --> 01:27:10,400
Speaker 1: well great? Great to have you back, looking forward to

1617
01:27:10,439 --> 01:27:12,599
Speaker 1: and I have fits coming, that picks coming, my friends,

1618
01:27:12,640 --> 01:27:14,880
Speaker 1: stay at it and good luck on Sunday. Thank you.

1619
01:27:14,920 --> 01:27:18,320
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. I mean, if healthy, we're one of

1620
01:27:18,320 --> 01:27:20,040
Speaker 1: the few teams that can kind of hang with them

1621
01:27:20,080 --> 01:27:22,800
Speaker 1: corner to receiver. There aren't not many and that's what

1622
01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:25,120
Speaker 1: that's what this team was built to deal with this

1623
01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:27,400
Speaker 1: Bengals passing attack. And then the speed at the linebacker

1624
01:27:27,439 --> 01:27:30,720
Speaker 1: position was to deal with Lamar Jackson. And then you've

1625
01:27:30,720 --> 01:27:32,920
Speaker 1: played pretty well against them and that you need to

1626
01:27:32,960 --> 01:27:36,519
Speaker 1: do it again this Sunday. Emerson is gonna be ready.

1627
01:27:37,400 --> 01:27:40,320
Speaker 1: He'll be ready. That's blow doubt. Yeah, that's so fun.

1628
01:27:40,640 --> 01:27:42,559
Speaker 1: That's gonna be a fun game. Still, so much more

1636

Speaker 1: Gerard on the show tonight. And someone on social asked

1637
01:28:12,400 --> 01:28:14,880
Speaker 1: me about Kirby your Enthusiasm. They were saying that their

1638
01:28:14,920 --> 01:28:16,800
Speaker 1: wife was having a hard time getting into it. They'd

1639
01:28:16,800 --> 01:28:21,080
Speaker 1: watch some of season one and first said find a

1640
01:28:21,080 --> 01:28:22,880
Speaker 1: new wife, and then I said, but then I said,

1641
01:28:22,920 --> 01:28:26,000
Speaker 1: you know what I do think if memory serves that

1642
01:28:26,120 --> 01:28:28,240
Speaker 1: it did get off to a it wasn't until the

1643
01:28:28,360 --> 01:28:32,240
Speaker 1: second or third seas. Much like early Seinfeld, the secondary

1644
01:28:32,320 --> 01:28:35,479
Speaker 1: characters started to really pop in the second and third

1645
01:28:35,479 --> 01:28:40,000
Speaker 1: season seasons. Yeah, that's right, like Richard Lewis Funkhauser, like

1646
01:28:40,080 --> 01:28:43,280
Speaker 1: all that Susie, all that stuff starts to happen, doesn't

1647
01:28:43,280 --> 01:28:44,840
Speaker 1: it come right out of the gate with like the

1648
01:28:44,880 --> 01:28:47,960
Speaker 1: pants tent. Season one's season it is, but if you

1649
01:28:48,240 --> 01:28:50,519
Speaker 1: so is season when of Seinfeld, it's just it's a

1650
01:28:50,640 --> 01:28:56,320
Speaker 1: much more compact show. The world's much smaller early to

1651
01:28:56,400 --> 01:28:59,280
Speaker 1: where by the time you get to seasons two, three,

1652
01:28:59,320 --> 01:29:01,439
Speaker 1: and then three, it's gets nuts. But once it to

1653
01:29:01,520 --> 01:29:03,880
Speaker 1: that point, then you've got all like you know Jeff,

1654
01:29:03,920 --> 01:29:07,160
Speaker 1: you know his wife, you know the funk Housers, you

1655
01:29:07,200 --> 01:29:09,519
Speaker 1: know all of this stuff. And so then when they

1656
01:29:09,560 --> 01:29:11,519
Speaker 1: pop in for something, you're happy, like, oh, here's an

1657
01:29:11,520 --> 01:29:14,160
Speaker 1: old friend I haven't seen for a while. So I

1658
01:29:14,200 --> 01:29:16,439
Speaker 1: think it'll come. You'll get there, We'll get there. Yeah,

1659
01:29:16,520 --> 01:29:21,000
Speaker 1: you'll get there. Absolutely. Yeah. I mean, and if not,

1660
01:29:21,640 --> 01:29:24,320
Speaker 1: if you get through the first like three seasons and

1661
01:29:24,400 --> 01:29:28,559
Speaker 1: it's not, it's time to value reconsider everything. I think. Yeah,

1662
01:29:28,560 --> 01:29:31,880
Speaker 1: you got a question every Yeah, it did start. Do

1663
01:29:31,880 --> 01:29:35,560
Speaker 1: you remember they launched on a fake stand up special? Yeah?
