13
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,680
Speaker 2: Earlier today, Todd Munkin was introduced as the head coach

14
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 2: of the Cleveland Browns. Talk about kind of that process

15
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 2: and and how that led you guys to Todd and

16
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 2: how excited you are to have him here.

17
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, first and foremost, thanks for having me on. I

18
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 3: appreciate it, I thank you know we're bos here and

19
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,039
Speaker 3: wish him the best hopeful feelings listening and so hopefully

20
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 3: he's feeling better. Yeah, exciting day. We're really happy for

21
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 3: Todd and his family.

22
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: Uh.

23
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 3: And you know, Todd's journey and coaching has, as he said,

24
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 3: started with the Purple Pounders. I think it was, you know,

25
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 3: and so to hear that and see him and how

26
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 3: emotional he got today about it is pretty special for anybody.

27
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 3: And you know, we're just happy to have him here.

28
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 3: I think he's going to bring a great level of intensity.

29
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 3: You know, he's got an offensive mind that we were

30
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 3: very intrigued with from the very beginning, and we knew

31
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 3: we had to kind of go to that lean as

32
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 3: far as from an offensive perspective. And you know, listen,

33
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 3: I think he's going to put together a great staff.

34
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 3: We're still working through a lot of things there on

35
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 3: both sides of the ball, but high, high confidence and

36
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 3: Todd and what he's going to be able to do

37
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 3: in the building now in the off season and then

38
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 3: once we get on the grass and the season, we're

39
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,639
Speaker 3: really excited about it. Now proofs in the pudding. But

40
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 3: for now, we're fired up, and I know he's just

41
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 3: as fired up, and hopefully our fan base is fired up.

42
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 3: But again, we gotta start getting results. And we're in

43
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 3: the results of business.

44
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 2: When you go through an interview process like this and

45
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 2: you get to know somebody, and obviously we knew him

46
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 2: from his time here sure in twenty nineteen as the

47
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 2: offensive coordinator, but you know, when you see that passion,

48
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 2: I got a chance to interview him. I'm sure we're

49
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 2: going to be releasing that shortly. But this is all

50
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:36,960
Speaker 2: he's wanted his whole life, and just shy of his

51
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 2: sixtieth birthday, which I believe is tomorrow. You know, it

52
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 2: comes true. And he got choked up in the press conversation.

53
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 2: He got choked up when I was talking to about it.

54
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 2: But when you have somebody who just you know, he

55
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 2: loves football. This is a football coach, that's what he

56
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 2: feels like he was put on this plant to do,

57
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 2: and you see that passion, that dedication. How does that

58
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 2: kind of affect you on the other side of that

59
00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:59,679
Speaker 2: interview zoom or when you're in person with him.

60
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,519
Speaker 3: I mean, listen, we went through pretty extensive process. You know,

61
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 3: I think Jimmy touched on it today. I've talked to

62
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 3: some other people about it, and you know, it's a

63
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 3: big deal. And I think when people are like oh,

64
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:11,640
Speaker 3: you had them do this, you had them do that.

65
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 3: We'll listen. You know, when you're having somebody and you're

66
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 3: spending maybe ten hours, you know, over a period of time,

67
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 3: and you're going to ask them, say, hey, you're going

68
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 3: to run a eight billion dollar organization, you know from

69
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 3: a football perspective, and that drives a lot what we're doing.

70
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 3: We want to make sure we're putting them through all

71
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 3: the tests and things to make sure like how smart

72
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 3: is the person? How what's some things that we need

73
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 3: to be aware of as a person. You know, the

74
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 3: quote unquote essays which is more like a homework question,

75
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 3: say walk us through what it looks like if you're

76
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 3: going to develop shador or so and so or how

77
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 3: do you think about this? It just drives to conversation

78
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 3: and so when we're also just limited on time when

79
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 3: it comes to those guys. So we're trying to beat

80
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 3: the process a little bit by about getting ahead of that.

81
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 3: So I think we came to Todd and everybody who

82
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 3: we had a lot of great internal candiates external candids,

83
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 3: I mean the amount of stuff you learn from an

84
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 3: interview process, head coach coordinator, whatever it may be. There's

85
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 3: a lot of things you take and say, hey, are

86
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 3: we doing this or do we need to be thinking

87
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 3: about doing that or so on and so forth. So

88
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 3: that's number one as far as the process goes. And

89
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 3: then again, I think with Todd, it's just high love

90
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,679
Speaker 3: for football. He's a high character person. You saw it today.

91
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 3: There's there's no nonsense. He's he's not gonna he's not

92
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 3: gonna be s you. And I think, you know, he

93
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 3: said like every day we're gonna live is fourth and one,

94
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 3: And I think that's just a mindset of mentality that

95
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 3: you know you have to have, right and I think

96
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 3: that'll translate to our guys. You know, we last year unfortunately,

97
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 3: we had a lot of games and we just let

98
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 3: it get away from us. And we had a young team,

99
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 3: and you know sometimes that happens, and mistakes happen. It's

100
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,919
Speaker 3: just like any team, it'll happen to you. So I

101
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,359
Speaker 3: think us having that young team and the new mindset

102
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 3: of every day's fourth and one, you're coming in here

103
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 3: having a winning mindset, I think he's going to drive

104
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,159
Speaker 3: that attention to the guys and hopefully it translates we've.

105
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 2: Hung around each other and that the funny thing is,

106
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 2: I was just going to ask you about fourth and one,

107
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 2: and you went right Therefore I even had to do it.

108
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 2: But I love when he said that every day is

109
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 2: fourth and one because and he even talked about the

110
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 2: change in the NFL from when he was an O

111
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 2: C in Tampa Bay, and part of it is going

112
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 2: forward on fourth. Then he can't celebrate it the defense.

113
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,160
Speaker 2: I'll put the fist up, it's fourth and two. No,

114
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 2: we're going to go for it. But it's that pressure.

115
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 2: It's that those are the things that separate winning and

116
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,279
Speaker 2: losing in the most binary business on planet Earth, which

117
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 2: is the National Football League, with everything that goes into

118
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 2: one game that has played once a week to have

119
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 2: those outcomes. I love that mentality. Was that something Did

120
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:35,359
Speaker 2: that come up in the interview? Is that something that

121
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 2: for sure?

122
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 4: Yeah?

123
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 3: That was definitely not just so he said to me

124
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,840
Speaker 3: and my interview heard that before, And I think, you know,

125
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 3: that's just a mindset that he lives with day and

126
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 3: day and it is probably live with it for for

127
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 3: a long time. So no, I just think, like you said,

128
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 3: the level of detail, the level of intensity, and I

129
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,599
Speaker 3: think the creativeness that he's going to have with the offense.

130
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,160
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, it's it's players overplay.

131
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 5: Yep.

132
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 3: Right now, he's going to drop some great plays, Okay,

133
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 3: but I think his players over plays, and how is

134
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 3: he going to maximize the guys we have on the roster? Now,

135
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 3: who do we add to the roster? You know, in February,

136
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 3: excuse me, in March and then in April. You know,

137
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 3: all those things will tell and I think he'll do

138
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 3: a great job maximizing the talent that we have, and

139
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:24,719
Speaker 3: that's from every position, whether that's quarterback, receiver, o line.

140
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 6: Heck.

141
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,039
Speaker 3: I think hopefully he can keep connecting. Miles told us

142
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:29,480
Speaker 3: at the end of the year, he's like, hey, I'm

143
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 3: going to break the sack record again. So you know,

144
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 3: I think I think Todd will continue to motivate him

145
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 3: to even push him as well.

146
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 2: A lot of draft picks two in the first round,

147
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 2: as we know, for the first time in a very

148
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 2: very long time, that's exciting an ability to be flexible

149
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 2: with the Caps, as Andrew Barry talked about. But when

150
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 2: you bring in a guy like Todd who has been

151
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 2: successful with so many different style offenses, so many different

152
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 2: style players, and you guys kind of get to go

153
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 2: shopping a little bit. This is this is going to

154
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 2: be an opportunity for the Cleveland Browns to really kind

155
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 2: of add talent. I mean, you could roll out of

156
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 2: defense right now week one of guys that are here.

157
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 2: But this is an opportunity to add talent. I'm sure

158
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 2: from your level that's exciting. And obviously how Todd and

159
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 2: ab and when Todd gets his whole staff put together,

160
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,239
Speaker 2: how they're gonna all integrate to find those right guys.

161
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 2: This is an exciting time, I think from to see

162
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 2: how this offense is going to be added to augmented,

163
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 2: and then how it's going to be developed and performed.

164
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 7: Yeah.

165
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 3: Look, I mean obviously you know ten picks in this

166
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 3: year's draft, and you know obviously I think now we've

167
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 3: heard the cap may may go up exponentially, so that

168
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 3: also helps not us, but every other team. So yeah, no,

169
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 3: I mean, I think his knowledge on receiver and quarterback

170
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 3: and everything from that perspective, we're going to dive into

171
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 3: that because we know what we need. There are some

172
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 3: positions of need and we want to be explosive and

173
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 3: we have some great guys in the roster already that

174
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 3: are great players from receivers. But if we can add

175
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 3: to that room and just make it that much better,

176
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 3: we're going to do it.

177
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 8: You know.

178
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 3: The other thing is I'll say, like, I also think

179
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 3: we have a great defense, but I don't want us

180
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 3: to neglect that. So if we have an opportune unity

181
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 3: and there's a really good player that we think can

182
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 3: help us on defense, by all means, and Andrew and

183
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 3: We've all talked about this is let's go get that guy.

184
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 3: We know we got to fix the offense, but let's

185
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 3: keep building on the things that we've had success on.

186
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 3: So we're not going to neglect the defense either.

187
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 4: That's right.

188
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 2: If you're staying still, you're you're stagnant. Right, We're going

189
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 2: to obviously continue to improve there. Obviously you mentioned it

190
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 2: kind of at the top, but last year was difficult.

191
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 2: I think last year was difficult for eybody inside this buildings.

192
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 3: A couple of years have been difficult.

193
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 2: Difficult for everybody who's a fan of this organization. And

194
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 2: today feels like a dawn of a new day. Right

195
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 2: you introduce a head coach there, it's clear from a

196
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 2: from an attitude standpoint, and he talked about accountability, he's

197
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 2: going to try to squash anything that gets in the

198
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,239
Speaker 2: way of winning football, and try to do it not confrontationally,

199
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 2: but eliminate those things. You know what is kind of

200
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,439
Speaker 2: your message to the fans, because the reality is we

201
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 2: can't see anything or feel it right until September, but

202
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 2: we know that change is happening and that a lot

203
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 2: is going to go on in these next is now

204
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,199
Speaker 2: we're day thirty of those one hundred and twenty days.

205
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean listen, I think you know you

206
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,959
Speaker 3: always hear people say, oh, did you win the press conference? Well,

207
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 3: we don't want anybody to win a press conference game, okay,

208
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 3: And you know, you see what happened with Liam Cohen

209
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 3: last year and the Duval kind of comment and was like,

210
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 3: oh my god, this guy's gonna be terrible, and he

211
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 3: did a great job turning it around. Same thing. I

212
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 3: think Nick Sirianni had a really bad press conference turnout,

213
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 3: So the press conference means nothing.

214
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 6: Todd did a great job with that.

215
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 3: That's who he is. He's natural and he's going to

216
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 3: be himself. I mean, look, from a fan base perspective,

217
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 3: we hate losing. I've said that on this show and

218
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 3: here leading up to Week one, if anybody has an

219
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 3: issue with us and don't think we're going to be

220
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 3: competitive and we care about winning, come on down, let's talk.

221
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 3: I mean, winning to us is everything. I know how

222
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 3: what that means to our fan base. It's no fun

223
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 3: when we lose. I mean when you're in the locker

224
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 3: room even though it was the last game of the

225
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 3: year and it didn't matter, and seeing guys and how

226
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 3: exuberant they were and dancing around and having fun, like knowing,

227
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 3: like crap, the season's over, but they're like, yeah, we

228
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 3: just won a football game. We won in a great fashion.

229
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 3: It means so much to them, and I know what

230
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 3: it means to our fan base. And so it's our

231
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,599
Speaker 3: job as Stewart's organization, day in and day out, to

232
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 3: figure out how we're going to produce a winner. And

233
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 3: we know that's paramount because losing is not an option

234
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,680
Speaker 3: anymore and we've had enough of it. We think the

235
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 3: guy that we have in the building now is going

236
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 3: to lead us in the right direction, and we're going

237
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 3: to give it as much support as we can here

238
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 3: in the building. We hope our fan base gives him

239
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 3: just as much support outside of the building. And you know,

240
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 3: when training camp starts in September, et cetera. So we're

241
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 3: excited to get going. We got a lot of work

242
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,199
Speaker 3: to do, but let's go.

243
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 2: Let's go. JW. Always a pleasure to have you in here.

Speaker 2: conference of new Brown's head coach Todd Monkin.

265
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 10: Everyone really exciting day. I am thrilled to announce Todd

266
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 10: Monkin as.

267
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 6: Our new head coach.

268
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,719
Speaker 10: And before you know, inviting Todd up to speak, I

269
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:44,959
Speaker 10: actually wanted to give a little bit of a context

270
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 10: and background of what led us to this decision. You know,

271
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 10: coming out of twenty twenty five, the first thing we

272
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,680
Speaker 10: wanted to dnsa okay, where you know, where are we

273
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 10: from a team standpoint?

274
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 6: Where are we from a roster standpoint?

275
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 10: And we looked at it and we said, hey, you know,

276
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 10: we're coming out of twenty twenty five, we have have

277
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:04,200
Speaker 10: the eighth youngest defense in terms of experience, a group

278
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 10: that's very complete at all three levels and that we feel.

279
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:07,199
Speaker 6: Really good about.

280
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 10: On the offensive side of the ball, we looked and

281
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 10: we felt like we had a number of young, you know,

282
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 10: pillar cornerstone pieces, but we envision a world where that

283
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 10: side the ball is going to have pretty significant turnover

284
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 10: over the next several months, and then from a resource standpoint,

285
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,680
Speaker 10: we looked at the team and said, we're flush with

286
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 10: you know, draft resources entering this offseason as well as

287
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 10: the appropriate amount of flexibility from a financial perspective. So

288
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 10: as we looked at everything and we thought about what

289
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 10: we needed from, you know, our head coach, particularly in

290
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,440
Speaker 10: this phase. You know, the first thing we actually looked

291
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 10: at is we wanted someone who could lead, develop and

292
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 10: grow a young team because quite frankly, we're probably going

293
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 10: to be, if not the youngest, one of the youngest

294
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 10: teams in football in twenty twenty six. The second thing

295
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,319
Speaker 10: that we wanted, you know, certainly in the short term,

296
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 10: was a coach, didn't matter the background, that had a

297
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 10: very strong inadaptable offensive plan given the amount of turnover

298
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 10: we're going to have on that side of the ball,

299
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 10: both in terms of personnel, scheme, you name it.

300
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 6: In addition to that very.

301
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:15,200
Speaker 10: Specific problem, we were looking at individuals that had four

302
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 10: key attributes.

303
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:17,439
Speaker 6: The first is.

304
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 10: Something that we categorize as global intelligence, so that's not

305
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 10: just cognitive ability or IQ, that's EQ in football acumen

306
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 10: as well. The second is something that we term CEO leadership,

307
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 10: so that's someone who has the ability to function at

308
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 10: what we would call thirty thousand feet as well as

309
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,119
Speaker 10: the tactical level at ground level.

310
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 6: The third we.

311
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 10: Wanted someone who had a demonstrated track record of innovation

312
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 10: where they've been. And then the fourth we wanted someone

313
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 10: who had the characteristics of collaboration. Given the head coaching

314
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,559
Speaker 10: position touches so many different areas in football operations in

315
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 10: the modern day game. So what we did to assess

316
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 10: all of those characteristics with many of the fine coaches

317
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 10: we met with, we looked at their performance track record,

318
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 10: where they've been throughout all their career, how their units

319
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:08,080
Speaker 10: have done. We did a number of reference calls throughout

320
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 10: people who have been in direct working relationship with the

321
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 10: candidates throughout all stops of their career. We did testing,

322
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 10: we did work samples, and we also did the interview,

323
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,720
Speaker 10: and we combined all that information to make a good

324
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 10: decision about who would serve us best, who would serve

325
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 10: the organization best with the problem that we're trying.

326
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 6: To attack with where our team is currently.

327
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 10: And when we did that, Todd stood head and shoulders

328
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 10: above the rest. You know, Todd's like, really really really unique.

329
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 10: If you look at his history, his career history. You know,

330
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 10: this is a coach who has had high level, innovative,

331
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 10: adaptable offenses at both the pro and college level. It

332
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 10: doesn't matter the personnel, didn't matter, the quarterbacks, didn't matter

333
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 10: what he inherited. He always found a way to have

334
00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 10: you know, high level and productive units. It became very

335
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,920
Speaker 10: apparent in everybody that we talked to about Todd how

336
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,520
Speaker 10: strong he was working and developing with young players. I

337
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 10: think that's one of the beauties of Todd's experience is

338
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 10: he does have pro and college experience as a coach,

339
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 10: and that transfers in terms of how.

340
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 6: He leads and grows young players.

341
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 11: You know.

342
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 10: The third the mentors that he's worked for, most recently

343
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 10: Kirby spart and John Harbaugh, you know, arguably the best

344
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 10: in the business in pro and college, and the lessons

345
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 10: that Todd has learned and applied from those those coaches

346
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 10: has been outstanding.

347
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 6: And then the last thing is he understands the job.

348
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 10: I mean, the work that he did at Southern bass

349
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 10: inheriting a program at its you know, historical nader turning

350
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 10: it around with few resources, shows he has like the leadership,

351
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 10: the gumption, and the resourcefulness to do this job at

352
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 10: any level. So for us, we felt like he fit

353
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 10: us like a glove and we are so excited to

354
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 10: have him and his family in Cleveland. I guess I

355
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 10: should say back to Cleveland, Todd, but we're we're really

356
00:15:59,280 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 10: stoked to have him.

357
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 6: And so, without further ado, Todd munkin.

358
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 7: Wow.

359
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 12: Oh man, am I excited to lead this flagship, you know, franchise,

360
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 12: NFL franchise.

361
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 7: I mean, it's been a long time coming.

362
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 12: Really has been a long journey, and there's a lot

363
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 12: of people as we get down the road here that

364
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 12: I'm gonna have to thank, But I'm jacked. I mean,

365
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 12: I'm excited to be at the Cleveland Browns. I mean,

366
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 12: I mean it really it's hard to even put into words.

367
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 12: First Off, I want to thank d and Jimmy Whitney

368
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 12: and j W for intrusting me in this opportunity to

369
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 12: help build a winning team with the NFL's most passionate,

370
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 12: dedicated fan base, including the Dog Pound. Secondly, I want

371
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 12: to thank Andrew pointed that way, but you're right there.

372
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 7: I want to thank Andrew Berry.

373
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 12: Crazy enough in two thousand and nineteen, when I interviewed here,

374
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 12: my contact was Andrew and actually was the first gentleman

375
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,679
Speaker 12: that I met with when I came in the building,

376
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 12: and I could tell right away that our alignment and

377
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 12: his clear vision for how you build the roster and

378
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 12: how you develop players, we were aligned. And I look

379
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 12: forward to being connected at the hip and building this

380
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 12: roster to a championship level, consistent championship level.

381
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 7: He mentioned the last few years.

382
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 12: Getting an opportunity to work with Kirby Smart and John Harbaugh,

383
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 12: two of the elites in the game. When you talk

384
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 12: about getting a doctorate and coaching. Wow, I owe a

385
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 12: lot to them. They entrusted me to elevate the offenses

386
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:51,119
Speaker 12: at both places, which is a credit to the staff

387
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 12: we had and the players we had, because you can't

388
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,479
Speaker 12: do it alone. You absolutely cannot do this alone. It

389
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 12: takes an army, and I owe a lot of gratitude

390
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:03,120
Speaker 12: to them. The one thing I learned being with both

391
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:07,120
Speaker 12: of them, I always fought. I understood what it meant

392
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,680
Speaker 12: to confront anything that gets in the way of winning football.

393
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,919
Speaker 12: And what's interesting is they get to the same point.

394
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 12: They just do it completely differently. But it's an art

395
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 12: because ultimately, just like I would have with my son,

396
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,400
Speaker 12: just like our children. But you're going to confront anything

397
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 12: that gets in the way of helping them become the

398
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 12: best version of them. And that's your job with something

399
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:33,439
Speaker 12: that you love. And that's something I've never taken for

400
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 12: granted with any job I've ever had, is fighting to

401
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,120
Speaker 12: confront anything that gets in the way of winning football.

402
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 12: And I will allot to coach Harball. He hired me

403
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,439
Speaker 12: out of Georgia, took a shot on a college coordinator

404
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:51,640
Speaker 12: trying to elevate Lamar in the offense, and I learned

405
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,680
Speaker 12: a ton He is elite at messaging with a team,

406
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 12: especially with an NFL team, and how you deal with players,

407
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 12: and you can in front of anything gets in the

408
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 12: way of winning without being confrontational. To me, that's an art.

409
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,160
Speaker 12: That's an art. Thank you, coach. And then the last

410
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 12: thing I told myself, I wasn't going to cry. For

411
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 12: God's sake. I want to thank my mom and dad.

412
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 12: No longer with us, my brothers Tony and Ted college roommates,

416
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 12: been married thirty four. Of course she would say that's

417
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 12: probably six because you're actually married to the game.

418
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,680
Speaker 7: So it's been it's been an unbelievable journey. Thank you, love.

419
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,639
Speaker 12: Before I before I take any before I take any questions,

420
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,960
Speaker 12: I just want to there's something that that I've kind

421
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 12: of always lived by as a as a position coach,

422
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 12: as a coordinator, and I will as a head coach.

423
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,600

430
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 12: build a winning franchise that consistently competes for championships.

431
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 7: And you know what, my job is to prove it

432
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 7: every single day. And I appreciate that. Thank you. And

433
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 7: with that, let's go with some questions.

434
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 8: Hi Todd, welcome back. Marykaycabot Cluman dot com, cleven Plain Dealer. Well,

435
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,199
Speaker 8: I guess I'll start right off the bat with the

436
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,920
Speaker 8: question probably everybody wants to know, will you head into

437
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:52,480
Speaker 8: this off season with Shador Sanders as your QB one?

438
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 8: And if not, what is your approach to the whole

439
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 8: quarterback situation as you move into your new job.

440
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 12: Like any position on the team that's still to be determined.

441
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 12: Am I excited about Jador? Am I excited about all

442
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,919
Speaker 12: the quarterbacks in the room? And am I excited to

443
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 12: coach this football team? Absolutely? I can't wait for them

444
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 12: to get back and for us to get started.

445
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:19,200
Speaker 9: Joe Reedy, Associated Press Todd. You mentioned in a Harbough

446
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 9: Coaching Academy video your twenty nineteen stint here there was

447
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 9: a lot of drama that the coaching staff couldn't control.

448
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,640
Speaker 9: Now that you're the head coach and learning from Kirby

449
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 9: in Harbaugh, how do you manage that so that there

450
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:36,480
Speaker 9: isn't that drama?

451
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:39,880
Speaker 12: Well, first off, I learned a lot in that twenty

452
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 12: nineteen season. I think you learn a lot. In fact,

453
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 12: you lose. You learn a heck of a lot more

454
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,120
Speaker 12: when things aren't going well than when it is going well.

455
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 12: And I learned a lot of things that I would

456
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 12: have done different, and I think collectively would have done different.

457
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,160
Speaker 12: And I've seen it from a different angle, different point

458
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 12: of view, but I'm ready to move forward with this team.

459
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 12: The twenty twenty sixteen Todd chrisisterlin Acripkin Journal, I just

460
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:05,879
Speaker 12: want to ask you, as a former quarterback, what is

461
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 12: it you're specifically looking for in a quarterback?

462
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 7: What is that trait?

463
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 1: What are the or traits that you feel like are

464
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 1: critical for a successful quarterback regardless of the level.

465
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 7: Well, I'm just going to start with personality traits.

466
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 12: I mean, when you talk about who's going to lead

467
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 12: this team, who has the D factor, who has those

468
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 12: characteristics that the team wants to follow and believes in

469
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 12: them because the balls in their hand every down, this

470
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,920
Speaker 12: game is going to come down to two minute situations,

471
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,200
Speaker 12: four minute situations where you've got to be able to

472
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 12: execive the high level. And we're just talking about some

473
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:46,119
Speaker 12: of the characteristics that you're looking for, let alone some

474
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,359
Speaker 12: of the physical traits that we'll get a chance to

475
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 12: talk about later, he thought.

476
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,159
Speaker 13: Scott Patrick from the Chronicle Telegram, you said it was

477
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 13: a long time coming. When did you first start to

478
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,119
Speaker 13: think about being an NFL head coach and did you

479
00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,639
Speaker 13: feel you'd come close before? And then what does it

480
00:22:59,640 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 13: feel like.

481
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 12: Well, first off, I played at Knox College, and my

482
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 12: dad were high school coaches and my uncles were high

483
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:05,880
Speaker 12: school coaches, so that was.

484
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:07,160
Speaker 7: Just a dream.

485
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 12: But I've been part of a team since I've been

486
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 12: five years old, the Purple Pounders of Wheaton, Illinois, and

487
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 12: it's the coolest thing ever to be part of a team.

488
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 12: Let's just put it that way, Okay. All I ever

489
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 12: want to do is be part of a team in

490
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,159
Speaker 12: coach football. That's all I mean. Other than my mom

491
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 12: making an evil CANEVL outfit or an astronaut, I was

492
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 12: a football player every Halloween. That's all I ever dressed

493
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 12: up best, you name it, that's what I dressed up best.

494
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:34,479
Speaker 7: When I was a kid.

495
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:39,800
Speaker 12: Everybody else was getting train trains, they were getting army men.

496
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 7: I was getting football games my dad.

497
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 12: Every single was the little vibrating football game or talking

498
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 12: football or rubber band football. Every single game I ever

499
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:52,439
Speaker 12: got was about football. So all I ever want to

500
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 12: do is coach and be part of a team. To me,

501
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,679
Speaker 12: it's not until you get into the NFL that you

502
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 12: ever process the opportunity could potentially be there to be

503
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 12: a head coach in the NFL. Obviously you have to

504
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 12: probably reach the coordinator level to where that becomes a possibility.

505
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 12: And there have been times before where I've been close,

506
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 12: and I believe God puts you at the right place

507
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 12: at the right.

508
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 7: Time, and that is now. Damn.

509
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 14: I'llby Cleveland dot Com. This kind of goes with Scott's question.

510
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,679
Speaker 14: Obviously you've been saying it's a long time coming. Did

511
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 14: you at any point think something like this wouldn't happen

512
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 14: for you? And does that, I guess, does that make

513
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 14: this opportunity more meaningful for you?

514
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 7: For sure? I mean I'm not getting any younger.

515
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 12: I mean, let's be real honest here, although I'll say

516
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,879
Speaker 12: this that the version you getting on me now is

517
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:44,239
Speaker 12: a hell of a lot better than would have been

518
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 12: fifteen twenty years ago, So i'llt least say that. Okay,

519
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,880
Speaker 12: but you get to the point or this is God's plan,

520
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,359
Speaker 12: which is fine to be an offensive quarter in the

521
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 12: NFL or even coach in the NFL. I don't think

522
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 12: people really realize there's thirty two NFL teams. There's approximately

523
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:05,159
Speaker 12: sixty eight. I don't even know how many more there

524
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 12: are Power four jobs. So whatever job we have be

525
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 12: in the NFL or a power for school. There's only

526
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:19,240
Speaker 12: a hundred view in the whole world. That's all there is.

527
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 12: Within a thirty mile radius. There might be one hundred doctors,

528
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 12: one hundred attorneys. You talk about a small group, talking

529
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:31,680
Speaker 12: about elite group of men. So sure there's a time

530
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 12: where you think that's not going to happen. But very

531
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,719
Speaker 12: appreciative for the jobs that I've had and the players

532
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 12: that I've been around, and the coaches that have helped

533
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,440
Speaker 12: me get to where I'm at, because you absolutely cannot

534
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 12: do it alone.

535
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 7: Jimmy Watkins, Cleveland dot com.

536
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 11: Todd, you're known as a straight shooter, that's what they

537
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 11: say about you. How do you set that culture of

538
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 11: accountability in a way that doesn't turn players off?

539
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 7: So to speak? Great question. Like I said before, I

540
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,880
Speaker 7: think I think you have to.

541
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:10,159
Speaker 12: Hold the players accountable for what they say their dreams

542
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,399
Speaker 12: and aspirations are, and you have to find out what

543
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,880
Speaker 12: really do you want individually with your career, and then

544
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,359
Speaker 12: what do you want collectively as a team. And now

545
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 12: all you're doing is holding them to what their goals

546
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 12: and aspirations are. Like people did for me, I am

547
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 12: who I am because my parents did that for me.

548
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 12: They didn't do that to me. They did that for me.

549
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 12: And that's the way I go about it is. I

550
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:41,359
Speaker 12: think everybody likes honesty till they don't like what's said

551
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:45,199
Speaker 12: to him honestly, and I'm the same way. I'm no different.

552
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 12: I like being stroked in a good way. I'm no different.

553
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 12: I don't like the other side of it. But that's

554
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,439
Speaker 12: how I've gotten a lot better. And the people that

555
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 12: love you the most, they're going to be honest with you.

556
00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:58,639
Speaker 12: But all it is is finding out what are your

557
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,439
Speaker 12: dreams and aspirations and then let's fight Mike hell to

558
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 12: achieve them.

559
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 5: Ashleys Cleveland dot Com Just wondering being in the division,

560
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,600
Speaker 5: Like what your impression as a coordinator was of this

561
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 5: defense and if you've had a chance to talk to Jim.

562
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,120
Speaker 12: Or anything yet give me that again the last part,

563
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,360
Speaker 12: if you've had a chance to talk to Jim Schwartz,

564
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:20,160
Speaker 12: I have, okay, so but that I've had a chance

565
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 12: to talk with Jim, but it's been to apologize to

566
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 12: go against his defense six times over the last three years. Schematically,

567
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:34,120
Speaker 12: and more importantly, the players, because ultimately it's a player's game.

568
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:34,959
Speaker 7: That's what it is.

569
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 12: It's our job as coaches to develop systems that allow

570
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 12: your players to play fast. People talk about time speed,

571
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 12: it's really not about time speed. It's about how they

572
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:49,960
Speaker 12: play on the field, and that's developing schemes, in my opinion,

573
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,639
Speaker 12: or systems, as coach Harball used to call it, with

574
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:57,880
Speaker 12: elegant simplicity, where they can function at a high level

575
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,399
Speaker 12: and play fast. And that's what you saw all the

576
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 12: time with the guys that are here and the players

577
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 12: that we have.

578
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,639
Speaker 7: But at the end of the day, I say this

579
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 7: all the time.

580
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 12: From an offense or defensive perspective, it starts with having

581
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 12: elite players and then having an elite coaching staff with you,

582
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 12: and then you can call the game freely because of that,

583
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 12: because of the talent you have, and then because of

584
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 12: the players I mean, with the coaches that help it

585
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:30,800
Speaker 12: come to life. You know, that's what makes coordinator elite.

586
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,400
Speaker 12: It's not one individual person. And when we get ready

587
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,080
Speaker 12: for the brown when we used to get ready for

588
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 12: the Browns, excuse me, I mean, it'll be more fun

589
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:42,960
Speaker 12: than I have to worry about chipping ninety five every

590
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 12: down in distance.

591
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 7: I can tell you that.

592
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 15: Terry put out pointdew or Cleveland dot Com.

593
00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 7: Two things.

594
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 15: What you mentioned about the defense that I'm just curious

595
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 15: or where do you stand with Schwartz?

596
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 7: Is he coming back or what do you know so far?

597
00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 12: Well, first of all, I think as an outstanding defensive coordinator,

598
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 12: I think we all would agree with that, but I

599
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 12: think it's a little inappropriate for me to comment about

600
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 12: that at this time.

601
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,760
Speaker 15: Secondly, when you looked at the Browns from the outside,

602
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 15: you just mentioned the defense, but just in general, you've

603
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,960
Speaker 15: been through some situations where it's been big turnarounds. I know,

604
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,240
Speaker 15: Southern miss I think you're going twelve or wherever the

605
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 15: first year, and that what does it take to get

606
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 15: especially in the NFL, to get a turnaround situation?

607
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 12: Going perseverance because it's hard. I mean it's winnings hard.

608
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 12: I mean it is hard, but the reward is unbelievable.

609
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 12: I mean that's what was fun about the thoughts of

610
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 12: being the head coach here. I mean, I mean, if

611
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 12: you like a challenge, let's go. Let's let's get this

612
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 12: to where where the standard and the time is now,

613
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 12: the timing is now.

614
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 7: It's hard.

615
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 12: It's perseverance, mental toughness, surrounding yourself with the right people staffing,

616
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,080
Speaker 12: and then and then player wise that want to run

617
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 12: into that smoke, because not everybody wants to run that smoke.

618
00:29:58,040 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 12: Not everybody wants to look at it like it's fourth

619
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 12: and one every day, and it is. It's fourth and

620
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 12: one every day.

621
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 16: Nate alra kakran Beak in journal.

622
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 7: He clearly means so much to you.

623
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 16: So when you were at Georgia, you win the National

624
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,880
Speaker 16: Championship back to back, you come back in the NFL.

625
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 16: Did you come back to the league with the with

626
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 16: the goal to become a head coach? Was that in

627
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 16: your thinking?

628
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 12: One I called around to coaches in the NFL. I

629
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 12: wanted to hear what it was like to be a

630
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 12: head coach in the NFL because I tried to get

631
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 12: all of the Cliff kings Brand.

632
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 7: I couldn't.

633
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 12: He was in like Tahiti or something. So that was

634
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 12: that one they got. It didn't get him because I

635
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 12: might not have left Georgia. I got hold of three

636
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:43,240
Speaker 12: or four other coaches, Kevin being one of them, and

637
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 12: I asked them, do you enjoy being a head coach

638
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,920
Speaker 12: in the NFL? Do you enjoy everything that comes with it?

639
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 12: It's not easy. It isn't. And to a man, all

640
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 12: of them said they loved it, being Matt Lafleur, being

641
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 12: Kevin Stefanski and others that I reached out to because

642
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 12: it was the only reason for me to leave Georgia.

643
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:02,440
Speaker 7: Well, why else would I leave Georgia.

644
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 12: We're winning, going to have good players, the cultures already set,

645
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 12: So that was one part of it.

646
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 7: The other part was the challenge of.

647
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:18,120
Speaker 12: Where we could take the team out east offense and

648
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 12: how we could elevate Lamar Jackson. And like I said,

649
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 12: I owe a lot to the players that were there

650
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 12: and the coaching staff that we put together to help

651
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 12: us do that. But ultimately that was my goal was

652
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 12: to come back to put yourself in a position to

653
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 12: one day sit in this chairby one of the thirty two.

654
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 8: On the day that Jim Schwartz supposedly left the building

655
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 8: and said he wasn't coming back, Miles Garrett had a

656
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 8: reaction to that on Instagram where he showed someone hanging

657
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 8: their head. Denzel Ward has said, I really want Jim

658
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 8: Schwartz back here. So my question to you is, I

659
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 8: know you can't go into detail about your convo with Jim,

660
00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 8: but what can you say to these players or how

661
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 8: confident are you that these players are going to like

662
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 8: the direction that you're going to be able to go

663
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 8: on defense, and will you be able to maintain the

664
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 8: incredibly high standards of the defense even if Jim doesn't

665
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:16,440
Speaker 8: come back.

666
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 12: Well, first off, my anticipation is we're not going to

667
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 12: change the system. Very difficult to go against not planning

668
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 12: on changing the system. We're built for the system that

669
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 12: they're in currently. And I'm not going to get into

670
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 12: staffing because that's not at this time to get into that.

671
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 7: But they can be rest assured that we're going to

672
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:38,479
Speaker 7: keep the same system.

673
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 12: We're still going to let them attack, We're still going

674
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 12: to let them play free.

675
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:45,440
Speaker 7: I can't see any other way.

676
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 12: They're a big reason why I took this job, the

677
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 12: defensive players. I didn't take this job because of Jim Schwartz.

678
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:57,120
Speaker 12: I have a lot of respect for Jim Schwartz, as

679
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 12: I would hope he has for me. But I took

680
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 12: it because of the player that are here, the ownership

681
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 12: Andrew Berry, and the ability to build this roster from

682
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:09,360
Speaker 12: the ground up on the offensive side. So, and I

683
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,640
Speaker 12: said this to the other guys, I didn't think i'd

684
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 12: say it, but I'm going to say it. When I

685
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 12: was preparing for the Cleveland Browns, I wasn't trying to

686
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:18,840
Speaker 12: chip Jim Schwartz.

687
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 7: I was chipping Miles Garrett.

688
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 12: And when I was sliding a protection to the outside

689
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 12: backers or Grant Dealt, but there were blitzing off the edge,

690
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 12: I was sliding the protection of the players. And when

691
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 12: I was worried about throwing to the right against Denzel

692
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 12: Ward or Tyson Campbell to the left, that's who I

693
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 12: was worried about.

694
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 17: Throwing at Todd Tony grossesp on Cleveland. Welcome back, We're

695
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:44,239
Speaker 17: still here. It's kind of knowledge. Now Baltimore wanted to

696
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 17: draft Chadure. How much did you contribute to that decision

697
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 17: at the time with Baltimore, did you do any personal

698
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 17: scouting of him? And what were your thoughts back then?

699
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 12: I think it'd be unfair for me to comment on

700
00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 12: another organization's process us. I think that would just be

701
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 12: unfair for me to go in depth of where we

702
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:08,400
Speaker 12: were at in the draft. Obviously we had an affection

703
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 12: like a lot of teams of stor skill set and

704
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 12: what we thought he could become. But I really wouldn't

705
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:16,800
Speaker 12: want to go in depth of another team's process.

706
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,400
Speaker 6: Hates Daniel Yfusi ESPN.

707
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,760
Speaker 18: A lot has been made about, you know, the flexibility

708
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 18: of your scheme and bending it to the talents of

709
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:26,439
Speaker 18: your players. But you know, from a macro view, when

710
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:30,839
Speaker 18: people envision a Cleveland Browns offense under Todd Monkey, what

711
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:31,840
Speaker 18: do you want them to see?

712
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,840
Speaker 12: Well, that's a question I get asked all the time,

713
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,760
Speaker 12: like what system do you run?

714
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 7: What is that?

715
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,920
Speaker 12: And the way I'll try to phrase it is to

716
00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:48,920
Speaker 12: score any way possible. I don't care what it takes

717
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 12: to score. It's about scoring points. I would hate to

718
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:57,799
Speaker 12: put some sort of any type of connotation as to

719
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 12: what system that we are other than playing to our

720
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 12: players strengths. I think one of the things that our staff,

721
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 12: including myself I've been able to do is take advantage

722
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,239
Speaker 12: of what a player can do and not what they

723
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:14,840
Speaker 12: can't do. Every player in the NFL is elite and

724
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 12: they all have a trait, at least one trait that

725
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 12: allows them to I don't want to say this allows

726
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 12: them to function play at a high level. You just

727
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,880
Speaker 12: got to find what that is and not try to

728
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:30,040
Speaker 12: put a square peg in a round hole, taking advantage

729
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,719
Speaker 12: of what they do, and I think that's what we've

730
00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:34,960
Speaker 12: been able to do consistently.

731
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:36,960
Speaker 7: He taught Justin Cooper ESPN clewland Hey.

732
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 19: After being here in twenty nineteen and the well documented

733
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 19: struggles after the last two years of this organization, what makes.

734
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 6: You confident that you're the guy that could lead.

735
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 7: This team and turn this franchise around.

736
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:51,799
Speaker 12: Well, it's interesting that you asked that because in the

737
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 12: interview there was a question that came up about strength

738
00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:57,680
Speaker 12: as a head coach.

739
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:01,040
Speaker 7: And the other ones where you gaps as.

740
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,520
Speaker 12: A coach, where you need help, where you can use

741
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 12: people to fill in those gaps. And the other was

742
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 12: how would you envision yourself being unsuccessful? That's not even

743
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 12: in my vocabulary. It just isn't.

744
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:17,920
Speaker 6: Try to get two quick ones for you. Are you

745
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 6: going to call a place?

746
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:19,400
Speaker 7: Yes?

747
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,240
Speaker 13: And then you've mentioned ninety five a couple of times.

748
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:23,279
Speaker 6: How well did you.

749
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 13: Know Miles in the year you were here and how

750
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:27,879
Speaker 13: have you seen him evolve as a player since then?

751
00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 12: Probably when I was here for that short period, I

752
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,919
Speaker 12: would say that I didn't know Miles very well other

753
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 12: than I I loved his personality. I loved his charisma,

754
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 12: I mean, always a smile on his face. At that time,

755
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 12: I thought, Holy cal this guy runs like a wide out.

756
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:50,879
Speaker 12: You know, this guy looks like a skilled player. I mean,

757
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:57,719
Speaker 12: this guy is, you know, elite, and he's always had

758
00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 12: it in him. But you can just see the last

759
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 12: few years his evolution in terms of blocking schemes, how

760
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,799
Speaker 12: teams try to prevent him from getting to the quarterback,

761
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:12,640
Speaker 12: which opens up opportunities for others. I think his awareness

762
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:16,160
Speaker 12: of what teams are trying to do. I think they've

763
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,960
Speaker 12: done a great job of moving him around because that's important.

764
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:23,720
Speaker 12: That definitely gets into a coordinator's head and game planning

765
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 12: of where he's located. You can see with every team

766
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,600
Speaker 12: that plays against Miles.

767
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:34,239
Speaker 20: Spencer, Jermyn Brown's around table and lockdown Brown's. I saw

768
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 20: there was a clip that you did or you had

769
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:40,239
Speaker 20: of talking about coaching Lamar and how you even felt

770
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 20: like there were some things that you could have done

771
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 20: better working with him. So I guess I just asked,

772
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:46,839
Speaker 20: what did you learn from coaching Lamar for the three

773
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 20: years you were there, and what were some of the

774
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,759
Speaker 20: biggest challenges and things that you kind of bring with

775
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:51,560
Speaker 20: you now to this job.

776
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:54,399
Speaker 7: Well, First off, I think.

777
00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:58,760
Speaker 12: I didn't get to where I'm at as a human

778
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 12: being or a coach without owning and then fighting like

779
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 12: hell to fixing. And I think that's important a relationship.

780
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:12,240
Speaker 12: I think that's important in life is there's a certain

781
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:17,359
Speaker 12: amount of yeah, barograph here, follow me of that ten

782
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:23,879
Speaker 12: percent fifteen percent complaining self preservation mode that we can

783
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:27,240
Speaker 12: all get in when things go bad or things are tough,

784
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:31,320
Speaker 12: which that's life, that's relationships, that's coaching.

785
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 7: But the other eighty five to.

786
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 12: Ninety percent is owning your mistakes because we're human, and

787
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 12: then fighting like hell to fix them.

788
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:40,400
Speaker 7: And that's what I've been about.

789
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,279
Speaker 12: The moment you get excuse me, you're about to go,

790
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:48,840
Speaker 12: the moment that graph elevates and the other one shrinks,

791
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:50,399
Speaker 12: you're not in the place you want to be at

792
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:55,160
Speaker 12: First of all, Lamar and in my relationship was awesome.

793
00:38:56,880 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 12: We get along great. We didn't have this success last

794
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,880
Speaker 12: year for a number of reasons. And it doesn't matter.

795
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,600
Speaker 12: In fact, you know, he was banged up. I would

796
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:07,960
Speaker 12: have loved to have seen it. It had been healthy the

797
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 12: whole year, but he was not. It doesn't matter. We

798
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,320
Speaker 12: didn't at times didn't give ourselves the best chance to

799
00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:15,440
Speaker 12: be successful.

800
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,319
Speaker 7: Then you got to own that. That's part of what

801
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 7: we do.

802
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 21: Todd John table fox ate here in Cleveland. I covered

803
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:22,880
Speaker 21: you for a few years there in Tampa when you

804
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 21: were with the Buccaneers. You mentioned how you were, how

805
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,359
Speaker 21: you've grown since you stay here in twenty nineteen. How

806
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:31,320
Speaker 21: have you changed as a coach in your offensive philosophy

807
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,440
Speaker 21: since your last one of your first spots there in

808
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,239
Speaker 21: the NFL and Tampa when you had to develop at

809
00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:39,360
Speaker 21: Jameis Winston and a team that was young and was

810
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 21: trying to take that next step.

811
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:44,120
Speaker 7: Then I would say, what's changed dramatically?

812
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 12: And I'm going to talk a little bit philosophically more

813
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:51,920
Speaker 12: than I will about the team itself. What's really changed

814
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:55,040
Speaker 12: the last few years of situational football. The analytics that

815
00:39:55,120 --> 00:40:01,239
Speaker 12: have changed. Conversion downs, the way you approach down in

816
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 12: distance in the game, when you're going to take shots

817
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:07,359
Speaker 12: when you know it's four down territory. More and more

818
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:10,240
Speaker 12: teams are going forward on fourth down. It's conversion downs,

819
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,799
Speaker 12: not just third downs. I get a big kick out

820
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,279
Speaker 12: of defensive personnel when it's fourth and two and they

821
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:17,160
Speaker 12: stop them and they put their fist up like it's fourth.

822
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:18,359
Speaker 7: No, we're not.

823
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 12: Punting like teams don't punt anymore like you didn't. You

824
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:24,680
Speaker 12: didn't really get them stopped yet. And I'm not making

825
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:26,319
Speaker 12: fun of that or making life. That's just how the

826
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:31,640
Speaker 12: game has changed in terms of your situational awareness of

827
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 12: where you're putting yourself in position to keep the football

828
00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 12: and maximize your opportunity to score points. That's what's changed

829
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:42,120
Speaker 12: the most in the game is the analytical part of

830
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:46,399
Speaker 12: what wins, what drives winning, and that's just not down

831
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 12: in distance driven. That's tactical driven, across the board, concepts, players, matchups,

832
00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:57,279
Speaker 12: all of that. That's changed dramatically over the years. And

833
00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:00,920
Speaker 12: that's one thing that getting back in the NFL is

834
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:07,080
Speaker 12: understanding that the critical plays in a game that changed

835
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:11,720
Speaker 12: the game. When we ran that Mark Andrews fake sneak

836
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 12: around the end here this year, that wasn't something that

837
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:18,759
Speaker 12: was something we'd oiled up for three weeks. That was

838
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:23,120
Speaker 12: a playofful play. That was coach Harblaugh's idea. I don't

839
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:25,880
Speaker 12: care whose idea it is, where it comes from. That

840
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:30,880
Speaker 12: helps us win, that's what's most important. But it wasn't

841
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,479
Speaker 12: just to fly by your seat of the pants. Let's

842
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 12: just see if it works this way. No, it came

843
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:39,520
Speaker 12: up in that situation at a critical time, and that's

844
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 12: the difference when you're looking for margins that help you

845
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,319
Speaker 12: win close games, which is what the NFL.

846
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 7: Is all about.

847
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:49,320
Speaker 22: Cameron Justice, News five Cleveland. You talked about it a

848
00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:52,960
Speaker 22: little bit, your approach in player development, but as that's

849
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:57,000
Speaker 22: an attribute that's been something that has been top.

850
00:41:56,800 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 6: Of mind for this hire and for you.

851
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:05,200
Speaker 22: What makes your approach to player development so unique and different,

852
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:07,640
Speaker 22: not just maybe in the young players and rookies that

853
00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:09,520
Speaker 22: are going to be coming in, but maybe guys on

854
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 22: the fringe, guys that are in that practice squad role

855
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 22: looking to move up, And how do you approach that

856
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 22: with depth as well?

857
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:16,839
Speaker 9: Well?

858
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:20,400
Speaker 12: I think first off, as coaches, we can never forget

859
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 12: that we have a job for our players. Ever, that's

860
00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:27,280
Speaker 12: why we have a job, and we're in the development business.

861
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,399
Speaker 12: I know that's just the start of it. I'm kind

862
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:32,840
Speaker 12: of repeating what you said, because no one has already

863
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 12: made roster.

864
00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:34,719
Speaker 7: You only have so many.

865
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:37,359
Speaker 12: Picks, that's what you have.

866
00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 7: So it's starts with the top that believes in that.

867
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:46,280
Speaker 12: Then the head coach then down to the assistant coaches

868
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 12: that we're going to coach everybody at some point.

869
00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 7: They're all going to play for us at some point

870
00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 7: that's going to come.

871
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:56,120
Speaker 12: Up, and the best way to build their confidence is

872
00:42:56,560 --> 00:43:00,120
Speaker 12: to spend time with them. That's the biggest thing to

873
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,440
Speaker 12: develop every aspect of their game that's in the classroom

874
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:05,960
Speaker 12: and on the field. And everybody has a hand in this,

875
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:11,560
Speaker 12: everybody from sports science to our coaching staff to what

876
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:13,439
Speaker 12: we've seen at the beginning in terms of their skill

877
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:15,319
Speaker 12: set and how that fits with what we want to do.

878
00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:19,560
Speaker 15: Todd, you were asked about the quarterbacks at the very beginning.

879
00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:24,719
Speaker 15: How would you assess the current receivers and offensive line?

880
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 12: Well, it's kind of a work in Progress's kind of

881
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 12: hard right now because right now we're spending the majority

882
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:32,000
Speaker 12: of our time on building an elite staff. I mean,

883
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 12: that's really what we're doing right now. There will be

884
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 12: time for me to really get a chance to assess

885
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 12: the receiver room. Most of it's been from the far

886
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:44,120
Speaker 12: and same with the offensive line and how we're going

887
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:47,120
Speaker 12: to construct the roster moving forward, especially offensive.

888
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:49,600
Speaker 9: Todd to to to close it out, just what's your

889
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:53,680
Speaker 9: timeline as far as hoping to complete a coaching staff.

890
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:54,840
Speaker 7: I don't control that.

891
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,440
Speaker 12: I mean, we're going to vet as many candidates as

892
00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:03,200
Speaker 12: we can it right, when I was a head coach

893
00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:06,800
Speaker 12: at Southern Miss, we lost a coach and Pete Golding

894
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,279
Speaker 12: is now the head coach at Old Miss. He was

895
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:15,800
Speaker 12: our eighth safety interview all eighth. Our decoordinator was absolutely

896
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,239
Speaker 12: livid of why it took so long.

897
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:21,480
Speaker 7: We didn't get the right hire. We we hadn't found

898
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:21,879
Speaker 7: it yet.

899
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:26,600
Speaker 12: I think, just like they all vetted for the head

900
00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:30,319
Speaker 12: coaching position, don't get worn out. Make sure you get

901
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:33,719
Speaker 12: the right people at the start. And that's what we're

902
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:35,799
Speaker 12: gonna do. So there is no timeline to get it right.

903
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:39,840
Speaker 9: You've been in the division a long time. What do

904
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:44,239
Speaker 9: you think it's going to be like competing against Baltimore

905
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 9: and Pittsburgh and Cincinnati this year? Baltimore and Pittsburgh obviously

906
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:51,840
Speaker 9: with new staffs. You were involved with plenty of shootouts

907
00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 9: with Cincinnati when you were with the Ravens.

908
00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,560
Speaker 7: I can't wait. I can't wait.

909
00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:03,120
Speaker 6: Good afternoon, everyone, really exciting day.

910
00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 2: All right. That is Brown's head coach Todd Munkin's introductory

911
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:11,479
Speaker 2: press conference from earlier and you know there's a lot

912
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:15,600
Speaker 2: obviously in there. Todd munkin a straight shooter, a passionate man,

913
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:19,720
Speaker 2: got emotional, and he is a football coach. He absolutely

914
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,880
Speaker 2: loves football and associated with football since he was five

915
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:24,680
Speaker 2: years old. You heard him talk about every gift he

916
00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,080
Speaker 2: got was football related. By the way, you guys don't

917
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:29,640
Speaker 2: even know about this young Gabriel, but there was that.

918
00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:33,000
Speaker 2: I had that vibrating electric football game where you put

919
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:34,760
Speaker 2: the guys on there and then it would move him around.

920
00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:39,080
Speaker 2: We had hand painted dudes. We had the Niners out there. Oh,

921
00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:39,719
Speaker 2: it's a great game.

922
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:40,600
Speaker 23: I heard him talk about that.

923
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:45,960
Speaker 24: I was like, yeah, before you have time the little

924
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:49,680
Speaker 24: handheld like electronic football things. My dad had those I

925
00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:50,719
Speaker 24: used to play with as a kid.

926
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:52,480
Speaker 2: This one was cool. You'd set up. It was much

927
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:54,600
Speaker 2: better for running plays, but for like a pass play,

928
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:56,839
Speaker 2: you'd have to kind of like flick it and hope

929
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:58,160
Speaker 2: that the ball hit the guy and then it was

930
00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:00,920
Speaker 2: a catch. Very difficult to do. But the run and

931
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 2: plays were good. That it was a fun game. But

932
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:04,360
Speaker 2: you know, this is exciting.

933
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:04,800
Speaker 4: And J. W.

934
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:09,560
Speaker 2: Johnson, our owner, was here earlier today to kick off

935
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:11,360
Speaker 2: the show. In case you missed that, and we know

936
00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:15,319
Speaker 2: that nothing can happen obviously until September, but there's gonna

937
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:17,239
Speaker 2: be a no nonsense approach to the Cleveland Browns. And

938
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,319
Speaker 2: I think people in Cleveland are going to like and

939
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:22,560
Speaker 2: I think that Todd Munkin is a very authentic, very

940
00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:25,560
Speaker 2: passionate football coach. And I think that you know, we

941
00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:28,680
Speaker 2: heard Jimmy talk afterwards saying, you know that accountability is

942
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:30,919
Speaker 2: a big thing, and Todd Mnkan said, look, I'm gonna

943
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,800
Speaker 2: shut down anything that gets in the way of winning football.

944
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 2: And you wanted to do without confrontation, but sometimes you've

945
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:37,520
Speaker 2: got to be converstations, he said with his son, I

946
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:39,719
Speaker 2: sometimes you have to be tough on him because you

947
00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:41,560
Speaker 2: want him to be the best version of himselves. And

948
00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:44,560
Speaker 2: so I think that it's an exciting time. We got

949
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:47,000
Speaker 2: to get this staff all figured out. Obviously, so much

950
00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:51,080
Speaker 2: on the defensive side remains, you know, unclear. We did

951
00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:53,359
Speaker 2: not get any answers one way or the other about

952
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:55,640
Speaker 2: Jim Schwartz, who has been an excellent defensive coordinator for

953
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 2: the Cleveland Browns. I think that, you know, obviously everybody

954
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:01,120
Speaker 2: hopes that can work out. If it does not, I

955
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:04,320
Speaker 2: think there are obviously excellent options in house and excellent

956
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:06,440
Speaker 2: options you know, outside as well to keep this thing

957
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:08,840
Speaker 2: running here. But I think that the Brown's obviously in

958
00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:10,960
Speaker 2: a very good spot on that defensive side of the football,

959
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:15,560
Speaker 2: and hopefully everything can work out. Dolla Bill walking by

Speaker 2: about the process that led to Todd Monkin what is

995
00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:08,640
Speaker 2: next for the Browns and obviously had a message to

996
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:11,520
Speaker 2: the fans as well as an organization that absolutely wants

997
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:13,319
Speaker 2: to get it right and they believe Todd Mounkin is

998
00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:16,319
Speaker 2: that guy to lead this team. That fourth and one

999
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,880
Speaker 2: mentality we heard all about, which I think is I

00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:20,960
Speaker 2: love it, Love that all right. Signed out a head

00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:39,520
Speaker 4: I just walked by.

1008
00:49:39,560 --> 00:49:43,000
Speaker 19: There's a Gura statue outside the Monscone Center, the Convention Center.

1009
00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 2: The Moscone Center.

1010
00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:44,319
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1011
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:46,239
Speaker 19: Let me tell you, man, they did it. They did

1012
00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:49,280
Speaker 19: a great job. I thought they really catch captured your essence.

1013
00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:52,120
Speaker 2: Oh well, thank you very much. Hopefully it was better

1014
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:54,480
Speaker 2: than the one poster I appeared on for a Browns pregame.

1015
00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:56,160
Speaker 2: That's still the worst likeness of me ever, And I

1016
00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:59,719
Speaker 2: can't believe that that's been immortalized, nonetheless, neither here nor there.

1017
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:01,759
Speaker 2: How was everything out there at the Super Bowl? I

1018
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:03,440
Speaker 2: know you're there for a couple of days. How was

1019
00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:05,360
Speaker 2: it kind of catching up with everybody from around the

1020
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:06,879
Speaker 2: league and what was the vibe there?

1021
00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:09,399
Speaker 4: It was great, man.

1022
00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:12,400
Speaker 19: I wish I could say a little bit longer, but

1023
00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:15,640
Speaker 19: the Olympic Duty's and all that calls. It's it's a

1024
00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:18,960
Speaker 19: great super Bowl town, as you well know. It's you know,

1025
00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:23,120
Speaker 19: it's it's spread out. There's really a two super Bowl city,

1026
00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:27,440
Speaker 19: or they're a two city super Bowl rather ye. Both

1027
00:50:27,520 --> 00:50:30,480
Speaker 19: teams are staying down by the stadium in Santa Clara,

1028
00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:32,280
Speaker 19: which is like an hour down the one on one freeway.

1029
00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:35,520
Speaker 19: It's nowhere near downtown San Francisco. Downtown San Francisco is

1030
00:50:35,560 --> 00:50:37,319
Speaker 19: kind of the heart and the hub of everything with

1031
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:40,240
Speaker 19: the Convention Center and the media, the Pro Bowl games,

1032
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:42,480
Speaker 19: the flag football thing going on today with Shador and

1033
00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:48,799
Speaker 19: Danzel and everybody. So it's too low cows, but it's good.

1034
00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:51,080
Speaker 19: The sun is shining, the weather is great, and it

1035
00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:52,160
Speaker 19: should be great on Sunday.

1036
00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:56,200
Speaker 2: No complaints, man, fantastic there. All right, let's talk about

1037
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:59,080
Speaker 2: obviously the big news here where the sun is not shining,

1038
00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:01,360
Speaker 2: and snow is on the round built up into mountains

1039
00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:05,520
Speaker 2: in various parking lots around this region. Todd Monkin introduced

1040
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:08,880
Speaker 2: as the head coach of the Cleveland Browns today, what

1041
00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:11,480
Speaker 2: did you think of that press conference and just kind

1042
00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:13,200
Speaker 2: of what were the themes that you took away from

1043
00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:15,840
Speaker 2: the words that he shared today?

1044
00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:19,279
Speaker 19: I was ready to run through a wall in my hotel. Right,

1045
00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:21,840
Speaker 19: You'll be honest with you. Actually, you do know that

1046
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:22,520
Speaker 19: I texted you?

1047
00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:23,320
Speaker 2: I did you text it?

1048
00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:27,080
Speaker 19: During that's writ ser Yeah, I thought he won the presser.

1049
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:30,040
Speaker 19: That means nothing. Come September, it means nothing at all.

1050
00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:33,680
Speaker 19: Nick Sirianni lost the presser badly. Leam Cohen lost the

1051
00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:36,520
Speaker 19: presser badly. So I'm not trying to suggest that winning

1052
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 19: a presser on what it's today, February third, in any

1053
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:42,120
Speaker 19: way turns into victories come September.

1054
00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:42,640
Speaker 4: It doesn't.

1055
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:44,200
Speaker 19: But I thought he hit the right tone. I thought

1056
00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:47,160
Speaker 19: he said all the right things. And while it might

1057
00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:50,359
Speaker 19: not have been the sexiest hire, I think fans saw

1058
00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:53,080
Speaker 19: who he is and what he's going to do for

1059
00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:55,880
Speaker 19: that building, and do for that locker room, and do

1060
00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:58,600
Speaker 19: for the entire organization. It's a Todd Monkin that you

1061
00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:01,960
Speaker 19: know well from twenty nineteen one, who tells it like

1062
00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:02,520
Speaker 19: it is.

1063
00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:03,520
Speaker 4: Who was sarcastic.

1064
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:05,759
Speaker 19: He's kind of like your fun uncle, but your fun

1065
00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:07,520
Speaker 19: uncle who is going to hold you accountable? And I

1066
00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:11,160
Speaker 19: think they need that. I loved it. For what it's worth.

1067
00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:12,960
Speaker 19: It is a presser, but I loved it.

1068
00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:16,600
Speaker 2: What were kind of the main themes that you took

1069
00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:18,879
Speaker 2: away or were there any answers in particular or any

1070
00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:21,720
Speaker 2: kind of anything that he said in particular that really

1071
00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:24,359
Speaker 2: struck you well.

1072
00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:25,160
Speaker 4: I mean, there are two things.

1073
00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:27,239
Speaker 19: The one that's going around, obviously is his message to

1074
00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:30,279
Speaker 19: the defense in which he said I worried about Chip

1075
00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:33,040
Speaker 19: and Miles Garrett and not Chip and Jim Schwartz. Read

1076
00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:35,600
Speaker 19: into that as you may, but at the same time

1077
00:52:35,640 --> 00:52:38,000
Speaker 19: you call doct grand delpet and Denzel Ward and Tyson

1078
00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:40,239
Speaker 19: Campbell and all the other pieces on that defense. He

1079
00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:42,560
Speaker 19: wants to send a message to the defense that regardless

1080
00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:45,359
Speaker 19: of who is here, obviously things are up in the air,

1081
00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:47,600
Speaker 19: but we're not going to change. We're coming after you.

1082
00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:50,839
Speaker 19: And it was a B word he used to coach

1083
00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:54,080
Speaker 19: against that defense six times over the three years. I

1084
00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:55,880
Speaker 19: thought the other thing and this is what I have

1085
00:52:56,040 --> 00:52:59,960
Speaker 19: heard from a lot of people. I've talked to quarterback,

1086
00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:04,400
Speaker 19: to players, to assistant coaches that have all been in

1087
00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:06,439
Speaker 19: a Todd Monkin building on both sides of the ball.

1088
00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:08,160
Speaker 4: Guys that played from offensively and.

1089
00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:11,880
Speaker 19: Guys that were in the same building but on the defense,

1090
00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:14,719
Speaker 19: who not only love him but always point out and

1091
00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:16,920
Speaker 19: he pointed us out today, there is no Todd Monkin

1092
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:22,399
Speaker 19: offense like at oklallma stay, we ran basically air rated

1093
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:24,600
Speaker 19: at Brandon Whedon. You know, he used the backs and

1094
00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:27,120
Speaker 19: the tight ends when he was at Georgia. He ran

1095
00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:29,880
Speaker 19: a bunch of RPOs. At Lamar Jackson, there is no

1096
00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:33,120
Speaker 19: This is my system. We're going to make it work,

1097
00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:36,200
Speaker 19: and you have to conform to my system. It's I'm

1098
00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:38,560
Speaker 19: gonna make I'm gonna make lunch with everything in the fridge.

1099
00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:41,120
Speaker 19: I'm going to make chicken salad with what we have.

1100
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:45,520
Speaker 19: And that is the beauty of I think his offensive mind,

1101
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:47,680
Speaker 19: and it is something that has been pointed out to

1102
00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:50,520
Speaker 19: me countless times, not only last week, but here the

1103
00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:52,439
Speaker 19: last forty eight hours of the Super Bowl as well.

1104
00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:55,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think, and that's one of the things that

1105
00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:58,279
Speaker 2: I think is very exciting and very appealing about this

1106
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:02,200
Speaker 2: is that you have, you know, a great, great defense.

1107
00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:04,800
Speaker 2: We need work on offense. Todd Munkin has been successful

1108
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:07,800
Speaker 2: in a variety of schemes. He's not married to anyone's scheme.

1109
00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:10,480
Speaker 2: He's just as he said, I'm about scoring points and

1110
00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:12,560
Speaker 2: I love to you know, I'm going to live every

1111
00:54:12,600 --> 00:54:14,600
Speaker 2: moment like her, every day like it's fourth and one.

1112
00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:16,520
Speaker 2: And I love that because that is the reality.

1113
00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:17,359
Speaker 4: Is I love that too.

1114
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:20,680
Speaker 2: That's That's what a lot of NFL games are now, right,

1115
00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:24,000
Speaker 2: It's who comes through on those money downs, those fourth

1116
00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:26,600
Speaker 2: and shorts that you know you'd used to never even

1117
00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:28,760
Speaker 2: see teams go for, and now they go for multiple

1118
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:31,680
Speaker 2: times a game, and those are those are big difference makers.

1119
00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:34,920
Speaker 19: The other thing they kind of stood out is, and

1120
00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:38,000
Speaker 19: I'm going to paraphrase here, it's like, it's what do

1121
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:39,680
Speaker 19: you want for yourself and what do you want for

1122
00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:41,759
Speaker 19: the team? And I'm here to help you get there,

1123
00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:44,920
Speaker 19: not not to carry you there, but to help guide

1124
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:50,040
Speaker 19: you there. That really stuck struck a note with me,

1125
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 19: not only necessarily in a football sense, which is the

1126
00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:54,719
Speaker 19: form there, but just in life in general. Like I

1127
00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:57,840
Speaker 19: can't I can't I can't take you there, but I

1128
00:54:57,840 --> 00:54:58,959
Speaker 19: can show you how to get there.

1129
00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:01,920
Speaker 4: That I think resonated. I think it will resonate.

1130
00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:03,839
Speaker 19: I think if you're a Browns player and you heard

1131
00:55:04,239 --> 00:55:06,600
Speaker 19: you were the presser, and maybe you weren't sure, but

1132
00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:09,120
Speaker 19: granted all the players talk, right like, if you're in

1133
00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:11,880
Speaker 19: the Browns locker room, you know somebody one of your

1134
00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:14,280
Speaker 19: buddies has coached or rather played for Todd.

1135
00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:16,040
Speaker 4: Monkin or had him in a building before.

1136
00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:18,600
Speaker 19: They all know and they all have all heard who

1137
00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:20,480
Speaker 19: he is. But I think that came through.

1138
00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:23,320
Speaker 2: Today absolutely, and I like that, Look, what do you

1139
00:55:23,360 --> 00:55:25,400
Speaker 2: want your goals to be? What do you want to be?

1140
00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:27,840
Speaker 2: And I'm going to hold you accountable because I know

1141
00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:30,000
Speaker 2: what it takes to help you get there. I'm going

1142
00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:32,120
Speaker 2: to hold you accountable to that standard. And I think

1143
00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:33,799
Speaker 2: that that's you know, we heard Jimmy say that in

1144
00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:37,440
Speaker 2: his press are afterwards, that accountability is a big thing,

1145
00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:39,400
Speaker 2: and Todd Unkin certainly seems like a guy that is

1146
00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:43,080
Speaker 2: going to hold people accountable, which I think is good.

1147
00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:44,640
Speaker 2: I like the way that you phrase it. Anything that

1148
00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:47,920
Speaker 2: gets in the way of winning football. He's not about.

1149
00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:49,600
Speaker 2: He's not going to tal.

1150
00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:50,120
Speaker 4: Get rid of it.

1151
00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:52,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, you got to get rid of those things. And

1152
00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:54,520
Speaker 2: I think that's that's important.

1153
00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:57,360
Speaker 19: It was text with Ryan Fitzpatrick last week and he

1154
00:55:57,360 --> 00:55:59,160
Speaker 19: had him obviously dam but he's like you maybe better.

1155
00:55:59,440 --> 00:56:03,120
Speaker 19: He's he's that smart. He's smart, he's tough. He made

1156
00:56:03,120 --> 00:56:06,400
Speaker 19: me better. And there they were chucking the ball forty

1157
00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:09,480
Speaker 19: fifty times a game. You know, it wasn't necessarily what

1158
00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:13,720
Speaker 19: we saw in Baltimore. So he could change the system

1159
00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:15,920
Speaker 19: depending on, you know, what he has to work with.

1160
00:56:16,560 --> 00:56:18,839
Speaker 19: He obviously got the shad Or question. I wouldn't read

1161
00:56:18,880 --> 00:56:21,359
Speaker 19: too much into it where he said, you know, he's

1162
00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:23,200
Speaker 19: one of the quarterbacks in the building. No one is

1163
00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:24,839
Speaker 19: going to come out and in doors the quarterback today

1164
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:27,320
Speaker 19: like Ian Cunningham, who is the new GM there with

1165
00:56:27,440 --> 00:56:31,880
Speaker 19: Kevin in Atlanta. Ian Cunningham was asked today because he

1166
00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:34,000
Speaker 19: had his presser right before Todd got on the podium

1167
00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:37,480
Speaker 19: and asked Michael Penis, and he would not come out

1168
00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:39,680
Speaker 19: and stamp Michael Penicks, nor would Matt Ryan. You know,

1169
00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:42,320
Speaker 19: you got to play it right down. You got to

1170
00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:44,239
Speaker 19: be vague this time of the year. She was going

1171
00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:46,120
Speaker 19: to be one of the quarterbacks. He's going to be competing.

1172
00:56:47,040 --> 00:56:50,280
Speaker 19: But you know, I wouldn't read too much into anything

1173
00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:52,480
Speaker 19: that was said about personnel today other than you know,

1174
00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:54,880
Speaker 19: Miles Garrett and everyone on the defensive side that he ancient.

1175
00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:58,719
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, luckily, reality is I think when you

1176
00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:01,640
Speaker 2: look at our quarterback room, you've seen some good things

1177
00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:05,480
Speaker 2: with all three guys that are currently this roster. DeShawn

1178
00:57:05,560 --> 00:57:08,000
Speaker 2: obviously has been the most productive of the National Football League,

1179
00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:09,520
Speaker 2: but we have not seen him in quite some time.

1180
00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:12,480
Speaker 2: And obviously his days of being really really productive or

1181
00:57:12,520 --> 00:57:14,400
Speaker 2: with the Houston Texans, and that was in twenty twenty.

1182
00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:16,439
Speaker 2: Shador some good, some bad, but there certainly, I don't

1183
00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:19,320
Speaker 2: think is anybody that right now you're just saying, Okay,

1184
00:57:19,360 --> 00:57:21,520
Speaker 2: this is it. We know who our starter is, and

1185
00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:23,360
Speaker 2: so I think you're going to have a competition. And

1186
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:25,480
Speaker 2: my guess is, you know, from Todd and when I

1187
00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:28,680
Speaker 2: talked with him one on one, you know, I think

1188
00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:31,560
Speaker 2: he certainly is open to bringing in more quarterbacks.

1189
00:57:33,720 --> 00:57:37,680
Speaker 19: Absolutely, my comment there was more along the lines of

1190
00:57:38,040 --> 00:57:42,760
Speaker 19: everything with Shador. We know this and it's not his fault.

1191
00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:46,240
Speaker 19: You know, there are always so many clickbait headlines. Oh

1192
00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:48,640
Speaker 19: you know, he says he's eager to work with Shador.

1193
00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:50,480
Speaker 4: It might be one headline. The other headline is.

1194
00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:54,320
Speaker 19: Todd Mounkin fails to commit to Shador. I'm just reminding

1195
00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:58,160
Speaker 19: people there there is nothing to be gleaned from quarterback

1196
00:57:58,880 --> 00:57:59,880
Speaker 19: conversation there from.

1197
00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:01,600
Speaker 4: The post and your mother. Then, hey, he likes him

1198
00:58:01,840 --> 00:58:02,880
Speaker 4: and he's ready to work with.

1199
00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:04,480
Speaker 19: Him, and they are going to be other quarterbacks in

1200
00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:06,040
Speaker 19: the room.

1201
00:58:06,440 --> 00:58:06,640
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1202
00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:08,160
Speaker 2: And and I don't know if you were aware of

1203
00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:11,800
Speaker 2: this or not, but Shador Sanders was actually on up

1204
00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:16,480
Speaker 2: in Adams with Kay Adams when this happened, as Todd

1205
00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:19,280
Speaker 2: Monkin's prescott.

1206
00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:21,400
Speaker 4: No, what happened? I missed that? What do you say?

1207
00:58:21,560 --> 00:58:25,320
Speaker 2: So he was on and basically you Todd said, you know,

1208
00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:28,040
Speaker 2: answered that initial question for Mary Kay about Shador and

1209
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:30,560
Speaker 2: basically that you know, he's excited to work with everybody,

1210
00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:32,640
Speaker 2: but he's not, you know, handing anybody's starting job. Not

1211
00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:35,000
Speaker 2: he didn't say that, but he didn't say anybody was

1212
00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:37,920
Speaker 2: getting it. And Joris said, that's exactly what's expected. He's

1213
00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:40,120
Speaker 2: got to come in here as well, determined, he's got

1214
00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:42,760
Speaker 2: to come in and work, which has been.

1215
00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:46,960
Speaker 19: Cool as well. Yeah, yeah, I really love that about Shador.

1216
00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:50,040
Speaker 19: He has repeatedly said, I'm noe's going to be handed

1217
00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:51,920
Speaker 19: to me. I'm going to work my tail off. I

1218
00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:54,640
Speaker 19: had someone asked me yesterday, well, why was he there when.

1219
00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:56,560
Speaker 4: Monkin was in the building last week. I'm like, because

1220
00:58:56,560 --> 00:58:57,200
Speaker 4: he's there working.

1221
00:58:57,880 --> 00:58:59,520
Speaker 2: That's why they're working. And he wanted to talk to

1222
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:01,160
Speaker 2: his coach. And I think that's very very smart.

1223
00:59:01,160 --> 00:59:01,760
Speaker 4: Bye.

1224
00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:05,440
Speaker 2: He went on to say, quote what whenever I feel

1225
00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:07,520
Speaker 2: like me, then everything works out. I've proven to myself

1226
00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:09,439
Speaker 2: I'm able to dominate the league. And then he also

1227
00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:11,320
Speaker 2: was talking about Miles. Garrett said, always want to gain

1228
00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:13,080
Speaker 2: his respect. Do I feel like I accomplished that. I

1229
00:59:13,120 --> 00:59:15,080
Speaker 2: don't know, but it's just going to continue to make

1230
00:59:15,120 --> 00:59:17,000
Speaker 2: me work harder. So I think Shador and handle that

1231
00:59:17,120 --> 00:59:19,480
Speaker 2: very well, set all the right things, and so he

1232
00:59:19,560 --> 00:59:22,320
Speaker 2: is a guy that is very very talented and certainly

1233
00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:24,320
Speaker 2: could throw the ball down the field with great accuracy.

1234
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:26,680
Speaker 2: And you know, as we one of the things that

1235
00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:29,000
Speaker 2: I think is kind of fun about this offseason and

1236
00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:32,760
Speaker 2: you're talking to a guy who absolutely loves offensive football,

1237
00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:35,880
Speaker 2: is that you really get to go shopping.

1238
00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:36,320
Speaker 4: Right.

1239
00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:39,360
Speaker 2: We have draft picks. We got ten picks, we got

1240
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:43,000
Speaker 2: two ones. You get to go shopping on that offense.

1241
00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:44,480
Speaker 2: And now Todd Mounkin, I think, is going to have

1242
00:59:44,520 --> 00:59:46,080
Speaker 2: a lot of input on what exactly it is that

1243
00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:49,240
Speaker 2: he wants in his players on this offense. They're going

1244
00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:51,680
Speaker 2: to get that staff finished up on this offensive side,

1245
00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:54,080
Speaker 2: the position coaches, all of that that's still outstanding, and

1246
00:59:54,080 --> 00:59:58,840
Speaker 2: get those announcements soon. But I'm excited about the opportunity

1247
00:59:58,880 --> 01:00:00,840
Speaker 2: to add a lot of invest c meant on that

1248
01:00:00,920 --> 01:00:04,680
Speaker 2: side of the football and what that looks like. Are

1249
01:00:04,680 --> 01:00:06,440
Speaker 2: you excited about that? Because to me, that's like kind

1250
01:00:06,440 --> 01:00:08,640
Speaker 2: of the story of the Absolutely clearly they've said, they've

1251
01:00:08,680 --> 01:00:10,240
Speaker 2: stated it, that's what it's going to be.

1252
01:00:12,280 --> 01:00:14,440
Speaker 19: Let's not forget you got two number one, you got

1253
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:16,800
Speaker 19: two first round picks, and I know we all had

1254
01:00:16,840 --> 01:00:19,720
Speaker 19: hope that that Jaguars pick was better than twenty four.

1255
01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:23,320
Speaker 19: But I'll gladly take another pick in the first round

1256
01:00:23,560 --> 01:00:27,240
Speaker 19: at twenty four because that's of course, that's a starter

1257
01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:30,200
Speaker 19: right there. And if it's an offensive defense, I don't care. Obviously,

1258
01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:33,120
Speaker 19: you and I both think or would prefer that to

1259
01:00:33,160 --> 01:00:35,400
Speaker 19: be offense. Matter of fact, you would prefer an offense

1260
01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:40,440
Speaker 19: only draft. I know you are weapons, weapons, weapons, weapons, weapons, weapons.

1261
01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:40,600
Speaker 2: You got it.

1262
01:00:40,640 --> 01:00:43,800
Speaker 19: But you know, my friend Mina Kimes tweeted as to

1263
01:00:43,880 --> 01:00:46,000
Speaker 19: the Todd Monk and higher like, I think something along

1264
01:00:46,080 --> 01:00:48,000
Speaker 19: the lines up. I'm glad I have Harold Spannon in

1265
01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:50,880
Speaker 19: my legacy league. Oh yes, they're going to find a

1266
01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:52,560
Speaker 19: way to get them the football. By the way, Tommy

1267
01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:54,360
Speaker 19: reached on them away. Kevin did as well to get

1268
01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:57,200
Speaker 19: Harold's fan in the football last year, so it's not

1269
01:00:57,280 --> 01:00:59,120
Speaker 19: as if he was lacking targets.

1270
01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:00,800
Speaker 4: But there are weapons there. There are.

1271
01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:03,200
Speaker 19: I want to see Isaiah Bond the locked. I know

1272
01:01:03,240 --> 01:01:05,240
Speaker 19: that was a frustrating rookie season for him. We saw

1273
01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:07,120
Speaker 19: flashes near the end of the year, certainly, but not

1274
01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:10,640
Speaker 19: the flashes that we're excited to see as early as

1275
01:01:10,680 --> 01:01:13,640
Speaker 19: week one, right yea, Like he was up week one.

1276
01:01:13,880 --> 01:01:16,520
Speaker 19: You didn't see it very often, so there is something

1277
01:01:16,520 --> 01:01:19,760
Speaker 19: to build on. But you know, Monkin kind of deflected

1278
01:01:20,080 --> 01:01:24,000
Speaker 19: the question about the receiver room today understandably, but you

1279
01:01:24,080 --> 01:01:27,040
Speaker 19: got to add to that room. I'm excited for the

1280
01:01:27,400 --> 01:01:30,120
Speaker 19: young pieces and back, so that includes Rahem Sanders. I

1281
01:01:30,160 --> 01:01:31,480
Speaker 19: don't know if he's going to be around, but I

1282
01:01:31,520 --> 01:01:33,280
Speaker 19: thought that was a nice find. He scored the touchdown

1283
01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:35,320
Speaker 19: week one. He made some plays in December after quin

1284
01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:37,919
Speaker 19: Shawn got hurt. So I think you have some weapons there.

1285
01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:40,800
Speaker 19: But the key thing is the offensive line. You only

1286
01:01:40,840 --> 01:01:42,800
Speaker 19: have three starters back, two of them are coming off

1287
01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:46,000
Speaker 19: of injuries. Or that three starters, three three players back.

1288
01:01:46,280 --> 01:01:48,160
Speaker 2: Three players, yeah, two of whom.

1289
01:01:48,440 --> 01:01:52,720
Speaker 19: Three players back, three of who all three have starting experience,

1290
01:01:52,800 --> 01:01:56,240
Speaker 19: but Zack Center hasn't started since Wyatt's really injury in

1291
01:01:56,280 --> 01:01:59,480
Speaker 19: September of twenty four, so they all have something to

1292
01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:03,880
Speaker 19: prove their own ways. You need more pieces any bodies

1293
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:06,000
Speaker 19: on the OL, There's.

1294
01:02:05,840 --> 01:02:08,360
Speaker 2: No doubt about it. You need a lot there on

1295
01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:10,480
Speaker 2: that offensive line. And that's gonna be a big part

1296
01:02:10,520 --> 01:02:12,800
Speaker 2: of this. That's gonna be a big part of this offseason.

1297
01:02:12,840 --> 01:02:15,720
Speaker 2: And that's kind of the that's not necessarily the sexy

1298
01:02:15,760 --> 01:02:18,320
Speaker 2: shopping on offenses is the skill position. Guys are the

1299
01:02:18,320 --> 01:02:20,920
Speaker 2: guys who score the football. But you you absolutely need

1300
01:02:20,960 --> 01:02:23,200
Speaker 2: to address that line. I mean, we went through it

1301
01:02:23,240 --> 01:02:25,640
Speaker 2: was that yesterday's show. The word you did the offensive defense,

1302
01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:28,960
Speaker 2: Like there may be if let's if we typically keep

1303
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:31,520
Speaker 2: twenty four on offense, twenty six on defense, you know,

1304
01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:36,000
Speaker 2: the defenses they're probably you know, six to eight spots

1305
01:02:36,040 --> 01:02:38,160
Speaker 2: up for grabs, and that's like up for grabs. But

1306
01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:40,600
Speaker 2: you could you could fill out pretty much a defense

1307
01:02:40,720 --> 01:02:43,600
Speaker 2: right now if you wanted to. Whereas on the offensive

1308
01:02:43,640 --> 01:02:46,160
Speaker 2: side of the ball, it's ten to fourteen guys that

1309
01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:49,040
Speaker 2: are going to be new, ten to fourteen out of

1310
01:02:49,080 --> 01:02:49,560
Speaker 2: twenty four.

1311
01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:50,439
Speaker 4: That's a lot.

1312
01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:53,120
Speaker 2: So it's yeah, it is gonna be. It's gonna there

1313
01:02:53,160 --> 01:02:56,520
Speaker 2: will be a great deal of turnover obviously on that

1314
01:02:56,680 --> 01:02:58,200
Speaker 2: side of the football.

1315
01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:01,560
Speaker 4: All right, on this one, can put an idea in

1316
01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:01,960
Speaker 4: your head.

1317
01:03:02,120 --> 01:03:04,320
Speaker 19: Hold on money, please, idea in your head. Okay, I

1318
01:03:04,400 --> 01:03:07,760
Speaker 19: like it. And this is this is an off season idea. Okay.

1319
01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:10,600
Speaker 19: The draft is April twenty third, so I got a

1320
01:03:10,680 --> 01:03:14,280
Speaker 19: ways to go. We'll be together again of the combine, okay,

1321
01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:15,800
Speaker 19: in wait a couple of weeks. But I just need

1322
01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:17,480
Speaker 19: you to get this into your head. I want you

1323
01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:21,560
Speaker 19: to go back to Jim, not John, Jim Harbaugh's introductory

1324
01:03:21,640 --> 01:03:24,919
Speaker 19: comments when he was named head coach of the Los

1325
01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:31,280
Speaker 19: Angeles Chargers of Los Angeles. Okay, and he said offensive

1326
01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:36,760
Speaker 19: linemen are weapons. Okay, yeah, you can google it, he

1327
01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:40,000
Speaker 19: said it. I just want you, maybe on the ride

1328
01:03:40,080 --> 01:03:41,320
Speaker 19: home today and.

1329
01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:43,000
Speaker 4: Two hands on the wheel. Please be safe.

1330
01:03:43,600 --> 01:03:46,160
Speaker 19: I want you to just allow your mind to go

1331
01:03:46,240 --> 01:03:49,400
Speaker 19: there that offensive lineman are weapons.

1332
01:03:49,640 --> 01:03:50,000
Speaker 4: Thank you.

1335
01:03:57,960 --> 01:04:00,840
Speaker 2: with that statement is they were there, mother Hubbard, the

1336
01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:02,720
Speaker 2: cupboard was bear on their offensive line.

1337
01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:09,080
Speaker 4: Well soz ours. We're all injured. But they went out.

1338
01:04:09,120 --> 01:04:12,520
Speaker 19: They drafted sim Johnson, they drafted, they drafted alt Right,

1339
01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:15,000
Speaker 19: so they went Joe Alton. They I thought you needed weapons.

1340
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:17,040
Speaker 19: He goes, offensive linemen are weapons.

1341
01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:20,840
Speaker 2: Interesting. I'm going to watch that one and then I'm

1342
01:04:20,880 --> 01:04:23,400
Speaker 2: going to watch the one where the the Bengals were

1343
01:04:23,440 --> 01:04:26,800
Speaker 2: talking about the decision between Jamar Chase and Piney Sewel

1344
01:04:27,280 --> 01:04:29,720
Speaker 2: and they went with a traditional weapon.

1345
01:04:29,560 --> 01:04:31,240
Speaker 4: And they went with mar Chase, who worked out for

1346
01:04:31,240 --> 01:04:33,120
Speaker 4: both teams. By the way, that.

1347
01:04:33,120 --> 01:04:35,280
Speaker 2: Was when that was that's called a win win. There's

1348

1385
01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:49,400
Speaker 2: press conference following the introduction of head coach Todd Monkin.

1386
01:06:52,240 --> 01:06:54,400
Speaker 6: Hey, gang, how are we doing? I'll have an opener

1387
01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:55,880
Speaker 6: for you, so I'll lest you guys, just.

1388
01:06:57,480 --> 01:07:00,680
Speaker 11: The process and can you expand a little more on it,

1389
01:07:00,760 --> 01:07:05,480
Speaker 11: maybe just the uniqueness of it compared to the way

1390
01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:07,040
Speaker 11: other organizations do it.

1391
01:07:07,120 --> 01:07:08,680
Speaker 10: Yeah, so I can't speak to the way that other

1392
01:07:08,760 --> 01:07:12,040
Speaker 10: organizations do it, Chris, I guess when we look at

1393
01:07:12,040 --> 01:07:14,960
Speaker 10: the head coaching position, like it's a lot like if

1394
01:07:15,040 --> 01:07:18,040
Speaker 10: you were you know, in the business world, you're hiring

1395
01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:19,080
Speaker 10: a CEO or CEO.

1396
01:07:19,680 --> 01:07:22,680
Speaker 6: Right, this is a position that you know.

1397
01:07:23,960 --> 01:07:27,920
Speaker 10: Across the league may you may spend call it, fifty

1398
01:07:27,960 --> 01:07:30,960
Speaker 10: to one hundred million on the higher plus another seventy

1399
01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:32,880
Speaker 10: five million on their staff, plus the impact that they

1400
01:07:32,880 --> 01:07:36,040
Speaker 10: have on the organization, and there has to be a

1401
01:07:36,120 --> 01:07:40,240
Speaker 10: level of like thoughtfulness when you're going through that hiring process.

1402
01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:42,640
Speaker 10: So the way that we looked at it is like, Okay,

1403
01:07:42,800 --> 01:07:45,320
Speaker 10: you know, generally speaking, you have a four week period

1404
01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:51,120
Speaker 10: to make really a monumental hire for the organization, somebody

1405
01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:54,560
Speaker 10: that can alter your your path, you alter your strategic

1406
01:07:54,600 --> 01:07:56,440
Speaker 10: direction in a very positive way or if you make

1407
01:07:56,480 --> 01:07:59,480
Speaker 10: the wrong hire, very negative way. And so the way

1408
01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:03,880
Speaker 10: we went through the process is one, we wanted to define, Okay,

1409
01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:06,640
Speaker 10: what are we asking this individual to do in this

1410
01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:10,080
Speaker 10: phase of our team's life cycle. Two, what are the

1411
01:08:10,160 --> 01:08:13,240
Speaker 10: characteristics and attributes that we're seeking that would allow them

1412
01:08:13,240 --> 01:08:15,920
Speaker 10: to be successful? And then three how are we actually

1413
01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:17,960
Speaker 10: going to measure that? And the way we looked at

1414
01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:20,719
Speaker 10: it was number one, it's performance right, it's a performance

1415
01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:22,799
Speaker 10: based business. We want someone with a good track record.

1416
01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:25,040
Speaker 10: We want to know what it was like working with

1417
01:08:25,080 --> 01:08:28,160
Speaker 10: these individuals from the people who have been with them

1418
01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:31,280
Speaker 10: over a long period of time. And then we also

1419
01:08:31,320 --> 01:08:35,920
Speaker 10: wanted to test their critical thinking skills in role specific areas.

1420
01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:38,320
Speaker 10: And that's what the interview process was. That's what what

1421
01:08:38,400 --> 01:08:41,040
Speaker 10: the you know, the assessments were in the work sample.

1422
01:08:41,200 --> 01:08:44,160
Speaker 10: So it was simple like that for that guided our interviews.

1423
01:08:44,520 --> 01:08:45,720
Speaker 10: I know a lot of teams they may do it

1424
01:08:45,840 --> 01:08:48,760
Speaker 10: the flipway while they were interviewed, alike Funnel. We did

1425
01:08:48,800 --> 01:08:50,360
Speaker 10: a lot of research on the front end a guide

1426
01:08:50,360 --> 01:08:53,080
Speaker 10: who would we would actually even submit a slip for

1427
01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:56,439
Speaker 10: and then use, you know, additional parts of the process,

1428
01:08:56,439 --> 01:08:58,360
Speaker 10: the interview process to ultimately arrive at over.

1429
01:08:58,320 --> 01:09:02,240
Speaker 7: Soult Andrew, someone that shock you is someone who's.

1430
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:04,720
Speaker 2: Always for You's going to be written to figure Chaste.

1431
01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:04,960
Speaker 8: Know.

1432
01:09:05,320 --> 01:09:07,800
Speaker 10: The way we went through is like for us to

1433
01:09:08,160 --> 01:09:10,880
Speaker 10: get to the point where we felt comfortable submitting a

1434
01:09:11,640 --> 01:09:14,160
Speaker 10: notification forum. They're called notification forms. You submit to the team,

1435
01:09:14,200 --> 01:09:16,559
Speaker 10: you submit to the league. We had done a lot

1436
01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:18,280
Speaker 10: of research on the front end to make sure that

1437
01:09:18,360 --> 01:09:20,920
Speaker 10: they match what we needed and what we were looking

1438
01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:23,280
Speaker 10: for in the head coaching position. So it wasn't just like, okay,

1439
01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:26,519
Speaker 10: let's just submit for you know, a number of different

1440
01:09:26,560 --> 01:09:30,160
Speaker 10: coaches and kind of go scattershot. We had done the

1441
01:09:30,160 --> 01:09:33,559
Speaker 10: homework on probably starting fifty coaches, then we funneled it

1442
01:09:33,560 --> 01:09:35,960
Speaker 10: to twenty three and then ultimately the eight external candidates

1443
01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:36,960
Speaker 10: that we submitted for.

1444
01:09:37,800 --> 01:09:38,599
Speaker 6: Before we even got to.

1445
01:09:38,520 --> 01:09:42,400
Speaker 13: That point, Andrew to Jim questions more, there's still a

1446
01:09:42,520 --> 01:09:43,639
Speaker 13: chance that he can come.

1447
01:09:43,560 --> 01:09:45,920
Speaker 6: Back to the court. Yeah, Scott, I'd say.

1448
01:09:45,680 --> 01:09:48,000
Speaker 10: I repeat what but Todd said, where we have a

1449
01:09:48,040 --> 01:09:49,720
Speaker 10: ton of respect for Jim and everything like that.

1450
01:09:50,120 --> 01:09:51,720
Speaker 6: There will be a time for that. But this is

1451
01:09:51,760 --> 01:09:53,519
Speaker 6: to day, isn't that?

1452
01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:59,240
Speaker 10: Andrew that as you've acknowledged the offense needs the most work,

1453
01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:03,800
Speaker 10: how did that affect your coaching search?

1454
01:10:04,479 --> 01:10:08,160
Speaker 6: I'd say this, Jeff, it affected.

1455
01:10:07,880 --> 01:10:12,040
Speaker 10: From the standpoint that for every candidate, you want to

1456
01:10:12,040 --> 01:10:15,599
Speaker 10: hear their vision or their plan for the offense. But like,

1457
01:10:16,040 --> 01:10:17,880
Speaker 10: that doesn't mean that you're searching for a coach with

1458
01:10:17,920 --> 01:10:20,479
Speaker 10: an offensive background. There are plenty of you know, defensive

1459
01:10:20,479 --> 01:10:23,479
Speaker 10: coaches or kicking game coaches that are very thoughtful in

1460
01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:24,200
Speaker 10: all three phase of.

1461
01:10:24,160 --> 01:10:26,439
Speaker 6: The wall and very knowledgeable. You know.

1462
01:10:26,439 --> 01:10:28,240
Speaker 10: Look, you can look at the Super Bowl, two of

1463
01:10:28,280 --> 01:10:31,120
Speaker 10: the most high powered offenses in the sport. You know,

1464
01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:33,160
Speaker 10: those teams that are led by defensive coaches and Mike

1465
01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:37,000
Speaker 10: Vrabelle and Mike McDonald and so I know when people

1466
01:10:37,040 --> 01:10:38,920
Speaker 10: hear offense, they seem okay, well, they're just going for

1467
01:10:39,080 --> 01:10:40,080
Speaker 10: like an offense square.

1468
01:10:40,200 --> 01:10:41,439
Speaker 6: That wasn't necessarily the case.

1469
01:10:41,439 --> 01:10:44,360
Speaker 10: We met with a number of outstanding defensive coaches throughout

1470
01:10:44,360 --> 01:10:46,880
Speaker 10: this process, but we felt Todd was the best fit

1471
01:10:46,920 --> 01:10:47,320
Speaker 10: for us.

1472
01:10:47,360 --> 01:10:50,320
Speaker 17: You've said the next coach would have a large says,

1473
01:10:50,600 --> 01:10:53,639
Speaker 17: a big say show in a quarterback situation. Is that

1474
01:10:54,040 --> 01:10:55,840
Speaker 17: more inputed than the last head coach?

1475
01:10:56,160 --> 01:10:58,960
Speaker 10: Yeah, Tony, I'd say that We've always I don't know

1476
01:10:59,000 --> 01:11:01,160
Speaker 10: an organization that would and have their head coach have

1477
01:11:01,280 --> 01:11:03,960
Speaker 10: input into the quarterback situation. So I wouldn't say that

1478
01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:06,880
Speaker 10: there's anything fundamentally different from that perspective.

1479
01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:11,680
Speaker 8: How optimistic are you that once time has an opportunity

1480
01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:13,519
Speaker 8: to dig into what he has in the quarterback and

1481
01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:16,160
Speaker 8: that you have right now, that he will find what

1482
01:11:16,240 --> 01:11:19,400
Speaker 8: he's looking for right there in your quarterback groom, or

1483
01:11:19,560 --> 01:11:21,240
Speaker 8: do you think there's a chance that he might want

1484
01:11:21,280 --> 01:11:23,120
Speaker 8: to look in a draft or free easier.

1485
01:11:22,800 --> 01:11:26,000
Speaker 10: Treatment, you know, Mary kay, I think for us, I

1486
01:11:26,080 --> 01:11:28,360
Speaker 10: think I've mentioned it to at least all of you

1487
01:11:28,439 --> 01:11:29,879
Speaker 10: here that we go into each off.

1488
01:11:29,680 --> 01:11:32,280
Speaker 6: Season as if we have an expansion team.

1489
01:11:32,360 --> 01:11:34,920
Speaker 10: So it's particularly a quarterback where it's the most important

1490
01:11:34,920 --> 01:11:38,120
Speaker 10: position in sports. We'll always do resource in terms of

1491
01:11:38,160 --> 01:11:40,400
Speaker 10: like what opportunities are available on the veter market and

1492
01:11:40,439 --> 01:11:41,240
Speaker 10: in the draft market.

1493
01:11:42,600 --> 01:11:44,719
Speaker 6: You know, we've got to higher staff first.

1494
01:11:45,439 --> 01:11:48,000
Speaker 10: After that we'll certainly, you know, pick up the internal

1495
01:11:48,040 --> 01:11:52,000
Speaker 10: assessments with you know, with our own roster, but quarterback

1496
01:11:52,080 --> 01:11:55,680
Speaker 10: no different than another number of other positions, you know,

1497
01:11:55,680 --> 01:11:57,880
Speaker 10: we'll spend a lot of time assessing what options are out.

1498
01:12:00,360 --> 01:12:01,280
Speaker 7: Okay, I'm over.

1499
01:12:02,760 --> 01:12:04,120
Speaker 6: The age before being.

1500
01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:12,800
Speaker 15: You mentioned it's almost like in passing that you thought

1501
01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:13,360
Speaker 15: you probably have.

1502
01:12:13,439 --> 01:12:15,360
Speaker 7: Maybe the youngest roster release.

1503
01:12:16,120 --> 01:12:17,400
Speaker 15: Where does that come from?

1504
01:12:17,640 --> 01:12:19,759
Speaker 6: Is that the plan or that's.

1505
01:12:19,560 --> 01:12:22,200
Speaker 10: Just where we're projecting based on the amount of draft

1506
01:12:22,200 --> 01:12:25,400
Speaker 10: resources we have, and then probably just anticipated activity and

1507
01:12:25,439 --> 01:12:29,160
Speaker 10: free agency that combined with having a very young defense,

1508
01:12:29,840 --> 01:12:31,800
Speaker 10: we would anticipate that we'd be a very young team.

1509
01:12:31,800 --> 01:12:33,479
Speaker 10: We're not necessarily going to be in a phase where

1510
01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:36,479
Speaker 10: we're going to sign you know, a bunch of mid

1511
01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:39,120
Speaker 10: thirties veterans to like put us over the top, so

1512
01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:40,800
Speaker 10: to speak. That doesn't mean that we're not going to

1513
01:12:40,840 --> 01:12:44,559
Speaker 10: participate in free agency or participate with veteran players, but

1514
01:12:44,600 --> 01:12:48,639
Speaker 10: the reality of having you know, ten tense selections, eight

1515
01:12:48,720 --> 01:12:51,120
Speaker 10: that are in the top one fifty and already a

1516
01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:54,080
Speaker 10: very young defense and with pretty heavy investment on offense.

1517
01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:56,479
Speaker 6: In most worlds, we're probably going to be one of

1518
01:12:56,479 --> 01:12:57,400
Speaker 6: the younger teams in the league.

1519
01:12:58,320 --> 01:13:00,759
Speaker 5: Weeks ago when I asked you about the defensive system

1520
01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:02,800
Speaker 5: and you said, you don't believe your scheme specific but

1521
01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:04,920
Speaker 5: obviously you like the way you guys played, and Todd

1522
01:13:04,920 --> 01:13:07,639
Speaker 5: talked about, you know, anticipating that scheme stays the same

1523
01:13:07,680 --> 01:13:11,080
Speaker 5: regardless of what happens with Jim. Just how important was that?

1524
01:13:11,200 --> 01:13:14,120
Speaker 5: And I guess, are you guys satisfied with that outcome

1525
01:13:14,160 --> 01:13:15,000
Speaker 5: with that side of the ball.

1526
01:13:15,160 --> 01:13:17,760
Speaker 10: Well, we're certainly satisfied with the outcome, you know, and

1527
01:13:18,280 --> 01:13:20,439
Speaker 10: part of the reason because we hired Todd. But the

1528
01:13:20,760 --> 01:13:22,800
Speaker 10: second part I'd say is like, in terms of the

1529
01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:26,760
Speaker 10: flexibility with the defensive system, we did talk to a

1530
01:13:26,880 --> 01:13:29,760
Speaker 10: number of coaches that we thought very highly of that

1531
01:13:30,160 --> 01:13:32,240
Speaker 10: you know, would have had some alterations with it. That

1532
01:13:32,360 --> 01:13:34,720
Speaker 10: was not necessarily a non starter for us. You know,

1533
01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:38,439
Speaker 10: we were looking for the person who best fit the

1534
01:13:38,520 --> 01:13:41,280
Speaker 10: characteristics we were looking for in this for this phase

1535
01:13:41,320 --> 01:13:44,639
Speaker 10: of the team. But yeah, like we think we think

1536
01:13:44,640 --> 01:13:46,000
Speaker 10: they played the style particularly well.

1537
01:13:46,160 --> 01:13:47,639
Speaker 13: And if ire and your.

1538
01:13:47,479 --> 01:13:50,559
Speaker 16: Two questions about twenty nineteen on Todd had mentioned you

1539
01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:53,759
Speaker 16: bet a point in contact form, what kind.

1540
01:13:53,560 --> 01:13:55,479
Speaker 6: Of relationship did that lead to?

1541
01:13:55,760 --> 01:13:57,920
Speaker 3: And then the second question is, I know you went

1542
01:13:57,960 --> 01:13:59,920
Speaker 3: to Philly, but in the interview.

1543
01:13:59,520 --> 01:14:02,720
Speaker 16: Process, what did he convey to you about his familiarity

1544
01:14:02,800 --> 01:14:03,080
Speaker 16: with the.

1545
01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:04,680
Speaker 6: Franchise and what do you learned in that year?

1546
01:14:04,800 --> 01:14:04,960
Speaker 25: You know?

1547
01:14:05,040 --> 01:14:08,120
Speaker 10: So the that's a great question, any because the interesting

1548
01:14:08,160 --> 01:14:12,760
Speaker 10: part is when we were supporting Freddy with building out

1549
01:14:12,760 --> 01:14:13,719
Speaker 10: his initial staff.

1550
01:14:15,160 --> 01:14:16,559
Speaker 6: He's right, I was the point off contest.

1551
01:14:16,560 --> 01:14:18,320
Speaker 10: So we you know, we talked about, you know, things

1552
01:14:18,400 --> 01:14:21,720
Speaker 10: during the during the interview process, supported to get up

1553
01:14:21,760 --> 01:14:23,360
Speaker 10: and running. And then I think maybe like a week

1554
01:14:23,439 --> 01:14:26,120
Speaker 10: later I had gone to Philadelphia. Well, the flip side

1555
01:14:26,200 --> 01:14:28,600
Speaker 10: is when I was in the interview process for the

1556
01:14:28,600 --> 01:14:31,479
Speaker 10: general manager's position here, I called him and I was

1557
01:14:31,479 --> 01:14:34,560
Speaker 10: like okay, Like essentially, hey, what happened.

1558
01:14:34,240 --> 01:14:35,120
Speaker 6: In twenty nineteen.

1559
01:14:36,320 --> 01:14:40,120
Speaker 10: You know, obviously you can infer from from the outside,

1560
01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:41,479
Speaker 10: but you know, there are a lot of good people.

1561
01:14:41,520 --> 01:14:43,320
Speaker 10: There are a lot of good players there. I'm surprised

1562
01:14:43,320 --> 01:14:45,040
Speaker 10: to see someone who's it, and he was. He was

1563
01:14:45,120 --> 01:14:47,479
Speaker 10: very honest and forth right, and so we always like

1564
01:14:47,600 --> 01:14:48,360
Speaker 10: kept in contact.

1565
01:14:48,400 --> 01:14:51,480
Speaker 6: I can't say that like, you know, we were.

1566
01:14:52,760 --> 01:14:55,559
Speaker 10: Incredibly close throughout that time, but it was always a

1567
01:14:55,560 --> 01:14:57,040
Speaker 10: bunch of you know, it was really always a lot

1568
01:14:57,040 --> 01:14:59,080
Speaker 10: of mutual express you know, texted him after they won

1569
01:14:59,120 --> 01:15:02,080
Speaker 10: the national championship in Georgia. We always talked uh and

1570
01:15:02,120 --> 01:15:04,240
Speaker 10: texted like throughout the season when he was with the Ravens.

1571
01:15:04,240 --> 01:15:05,760
Speaker 6: Just always had a lot of respect for him. So

1572
01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:07,439
Speaker 6: I'm super pumped to pay out the chance.

1573
01:15:07,280 --> 01:15:08,400
Speaker 7: To be able to work with them.

1574
01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:11,759
Speaker 10: Let me go, let me go to someone who hasn't

1575
01:15:12,040 --> 01:15:14,640
Speaker 10: asked a question. I'm gonna go Daniel first because I

1576
01:15:14,640 --> 01:15:15,479
Speaker 10: like him better than you, Darrel.

1577
01:15:15,520 --> 01:15:20,720
Speaker 6: So it was important that one to questions one of

1578
01:15:20,760 --> 01:15:21,599
Speaker 6: the testing questions.

1579
01:15:21,640 --> 01:15:24,000
Speaker 7: There are testing questions, you know, what is your player?

1580
01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:25,800
Speaker 7: How would you develop a shooter standardship?

1581
01:15:26,280 --> 01:15:28,719
Speaker 6: I guess this is why was it important to that question?

1582
01:15:28,800 --> 01:15:31,800
Speaker 17: Is is that again Dickens you know, the organizations hopes

1583
01:15:31,840 --> 01:15:32,200
Speaker 17: for them.

1584
01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:35,880
Speaker 10: So when we talk about player development, one of the

1585
01:15:35,920 --> 01:15:40,759
Speaker 10: things that we wanted to get out get a feel

1586
01:15:40,760 --> 01:15:43,479
Speaker 10: for with with all the candidates was less about the

1587
01:15:43,960 --> 01:15:46,720
Speaker 10: specific player, but more about like the player.

1588
01:15:46,479 --> 01:15:47,679
Speaker 6: Archetype, so to speak.

1589
01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:50,880
Speaker 10: So shaudor right is naturally that's like an example of

1590
01:15:50,880 --> 01:15:53,679
Speaker 10: like a young you know, a young quarterback and see

1591
01:15:53,680 --> 01:15:55,639
Speaker 10: how to see what they had to see what thoughts

1592
01:15:55,680 --> 01:15:59,320
Speaker 10: candidates had on that, you know, there were We also

1593
01:15:59,360 --> 01:16:01,599
Speaker 10: had another the young player on defense, and we also

1594
01:16:01,640 --> 01:16:03,600
Speaker 10: had a position coach as part of that because we

1595
01:16:03,640 --> 01:16:05,760
Speaker 10: wanted to see how the head coaching candidates thought about

1596
01:16:05,760 --> 01:16:08,360
Speaker 10: those things globally given everything that's asked for them.

1597
01:16:08,360 --> 01:16:12,000
Speaker 6: In that scene, Darryl, you're good offensive.

1598
01:16:11,520 --> 01:16:13,080
Speaker 2: Way hones say, there's a lot of work that you

1599
01:16:13,120 --> 01:16:13,439
Speaker 2: have to do.

1600
01:16:13,640 --> 01:16:15,639
Speaker 6: You talk about, hey, you can't kill every whole.

1601
01:16:15,520 --> 01:16:16,880
Speaker 7: League game in one off season.

1602
01:16:18,120 --> 01:16:19,840
Speaker 6: You know, Jimmy just.

1603
01:16:19,880 --> 01:16:22,000
Speaker 13: You know mentioned, Hey, he doesn't expect the team's going

1604
01:16:22,040 --> 01:16:24,360
Speaker 13: to be more fun to watch this year when these

1605
01:16:24,479 --> 01:16:25,240
Speaker 13: more games.

1606
01:16:24,960 --> 01:16:25,800
Speaker 19: Than you did last year.

1607
01:16:25,880 --> 01:16:28,760
Speaker 10: So what's that balance and timetable look like from your

1608
01:16:28,800 --> 01:16:32,200
Speaker 10: perspective if you go to work this offseason trying to

1609
01:16:32,280 --> 01:16:33,680
Speaker 10: put that offense.

1610
01:16:33,360 --> 01:16:34,479
Speaker 6: Together with time.

1611
01:16:34,840 --> 01:16:37,200
Speaker 10: Yeah, Darryl, I think honestly, you just try and make

1612
01:16:37,240 --> 01:16:39,360
Speaker 10: the best decisions as they become presented to you.

1613
01:16:40,120 --> 01:16:41,360
Speaker 6: I think it's as simple as that.

1614
01:16:42,640 --> 01:16:47,479
Speaker 10: I think we believe in being very process oriented and

1615
01:16:47,920 --> 01:16:50,280
Speaker 10: feeling if we have good process it'll lead to good.

1616
01:16:50,479 --> 01:16:51,160
Speaker 6: Good results.

1617
01:16:51,439 --> 01:16:54,880
Speaker 10: Todd's obviously very flexible in terms of what has been

1618
01:16:54,920 --> 01:16:58,160
Speaker 10: built for him and how successful he's been. But a

1619
01:16:58,200 --> 01:17:00,240
Speaker 10: big part of it does come maybe a little bit

1620
01:17:00,280 --> 01:17:01,320
Speaker 10: back to Mary Kay's question.

1621
01:17:01,400 --> 01:17:02,679
Speaker 6: I know she was talking about it more.

1622
01:17:02,560 --> 01:17:06,120
Speaker 10: With quarterbacks, but just player availability in the marketplace, like

1623
01:17:06,160 --> 01:17:08,680
Speaker 10: what types of players, what styles of players, and at

1624
01:17:08,720 --> 01:17:09,840
Speaker 10: what positions.

1625
01:17:09,400 --> 01:17:10,720
Speaker 6: Are they are they available?

1626
01:17:11,640 --> 01:17:11,800
Speaker 4: You know?

1627
01:17:11,920 --> 01:17:14,439
Speaker 10: I guess like maybe by way of example, if we

1628
01:17:14,439 --> 01:17:18,519
Speaker 10: were sitting here last year and you know, you would

1629
01:17:18,520 --> 01:17:20,160
Speaker 10: have said, hey, look you're going to take it, you know,

1630
01:17:20,160 --> 01:17:22,200
Speaker 10: a running back in an off the ball linebacker in

1631
01:17:22,240 --> 01:17:24,599
Speaker 10: the in the early second round, said okay, that's that's

1632
01:17:24,600 --> 01:17:27,040
Speaker 10: probably unlikely based on the player markets that type of thing.

1633
01:17:27,560 --> 01:17:29,479
Speaker 10: But that's what we did because like we felt like,

1634
01:17:29,760 --> 01:17:32,519
Speaker 10: you know, Carson and Quinn Shawn made the most sense,

1635
01:17:32,720 --> 01:17:35,520
Speaker 10: you know, in that moment, and they could be long term.

1636
01:17:35,600 --> 01:17:38,400
Speaker 10: You know fixtures on the roster, so I like to

1637
01:17:38,560 --> 01:17:40,120
Speaker 10: look free of my own sake. I'd like to have

1638
01:17:40,120 --> 01:17:42,000
Speaker 10: a little bit more clarity there, But the reality of

1639
01:17:42,080 --> 01:17:43,599
Speaker 10: it is we have to We have a lot of work.

1640
01:17:43,479 --> 01:17:44,800
Speaker 6: To do before you get all right, thank you?

1641
01:17:45,560 --> 01:17:48,439
Speaker 2: All right. That's Brown's general manager Andrew Berry. After the

1662
01:18:50,640 --> 01:18:52,240
Speaker 2: the one hundred and twenty Days treated you?

1663
01:18:52,600 --> 01:18:53,280
Speaker 23: They've been good.

1664
01:18:53,280 --> 01:18:56,360
Speaker 25: They've been busy, you know, following the whole coaching search

1665
01:18:56,560 --> 01:18:59,840
Speaker 25: and you know, keeping the track of everything. But nice

1666
01:18:59,840 --> 01:19:02,200
Speaker 25: to have Todd Munket in the building and get to

1667
01:19:02,280 --> 01:19:05,960
Speaker 25: hear from him ab Jimmy Haslam and really get to

1668
01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:09,000
Speaker 25: see the vision of where this is going in this

1669
01:19:09,520 --> 01:19:10,760
Speaker 25: next part of the one hundred.

1670
01:19:10,479 --> 01:19:13,000
Speaker 2: And twenty days. So for you, when they're going through

1671
01:19:13,040 --> 01:19:15,360
Speaker 2: this stuff, you get to write all the articles about

1672
01:19:15,400 --> 01:19:17,680
Speaker 2: every candidate and all of those things. So what was

1673
01:19:17,720 --> 01:19:20,120
Speaker 2: that kind of like going through that for your first

1674
01:19:20,400 --> 01:19:21,080
Speaker 2: coaching search?

1675
01:19:21,320 --> 01:19:23,400
Speaker 25: Yeah, it was great. It was cool to be able

1676
01:19:23,479 --> 01:19:26,720
Speaker 25: to research and get to know these guys through just

1677
01:19:26,800 --> 01:19:30,479
Speaker 25: reading about them and really diving into their coaching history,

1678
01:19:30,600 --> 01:19:33,280
Speaker 25: so the teams they were currently on, the things that

1679
01:19:33,280 --> 01:19:35,559
Speaker 25: they've done in their past, et cetera, and really just

1680
01:19:36,120 --> 01:19:40,040
Speaker 25: seeing who they are as a coach was really interesting

1681
01:19:40,040 --> 01:19:42,040
Speaker 25: to just read about and everything. So yeah, I put

1682
01:19:42,080 --> 01:19:45,080
Speaker 25: together a couple articles on each guy, so fans could

1683
01:19:45,080 --> 01:19:47,439
Speaker 25: also get to know them and really see who we

1684
01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:50,400
Speaker 25: were bringing into the building as a potential head coach

1685
01:19:50,439 --> 01:19:53,880
Speaker 25: option and really kind of excite you know, fans about

1686
01:19:54,360 --> 01:19:56,200
Speaker 25: who is going to step into this role. And so

1687
01:19:56,840 --> 01:20:00,160
Speaker 25: particularly with Todd, you know, I really dove into to

1688
01:20:00,920 --> 01:20:03,720
Speaker 25: his history with you know, the Ravens at Georgia when

1689
01:20:03,760 --> 01:20:06,320
Speaker 25: he was an offensive coordinator, which he was there right

1690
01:20:06,360 --> 01:20:10,000
Speaker 25: after I graduated, So that was really cool to really

1691
01:20:10,040 --> 01:20:13,200
Speaker 25: just dive back into, but also really to look back

1692
01:20:13,240 --> 01:20:17,240
Speaker 25: on how he got started and years yes, yeah, a

1693
01:20:17,280 --> 01:20:20,519
Speaker 25: long time and really just all of it stops along

1694
01:20:20,560 --> 01:20:22,280
Speaker 25: the way and how he got to where he was

1695
01:20:22,960 --> 01:20:24,840
Speaker 25: and really just seeing the things that people were talking

1696
01:20:24,840 --> 01:20:27,120
Speaker 25: about with him of just his offensive mind and how

1697
01:20:27,160 --> 01:20:31,200
Speaker 25: he's built really strong run games in his offenses and

1698
01:20:31,240 --> 01:20:34,160
Speaker 25: why that's been important, and how he adapts his offenses

1699
01:20:34,160 --> 01:20:37,520
Speaker 25: to who he has on the roster, which is really impressive.

1700
01:20:37,600 --> 01:20:40,000
Speaker 25: And so that was really neat to be able to

1701
01:20:40,120 --> 01:20:44,880
Speaker 25: learn about his evolution as a coach as well as

1702
01:20:44,920 --> 01:20:47,320
Speaker 25: you know, in these different roles of college back to

1703
01:20:47,360 --> 01:20:49,599
Speaker 25: the you know, to the NFL to college again and

1704
01:20:49,920 --> 01:20:51,200
Speaker 25: just sort of all over the place.

1705
01:20:51,240 --> 01:20:54,360
Speaker 2: So for you and your role where you are the

1706
01:20:54,400 --> 01:20:56,720
Speaker 2: one who actually, you know, lets everybody know and writes

1707
01:20:56,760 --> 01:20:59,280
Speaker 2: the articles of when the news actually breaks, Like do

1708
01:20:59,320 --> 01:21:01,880
Speaker 2: you have to pro we had three finalists, so you

1709
01:21:01,960 --> 01:21:03,920
Speaker 2: have to prepare something for all three and then see

1710
01:21:03,920 --> 01:21:04,360
Speaker 2: what it is.

1711
01:21:04,520 --> 01:21:05,280
Speaker 19: Oh, yeah, I had it.

1712
01:21:05,360 --> 01:21:07,840
Speaker 25: Yeah, I had things prepped for all three just in case,

1713
01:21:07,840 --> 01:21:09,240
Speaker 25: so we were ready to go as soon as we

1714
01:21:09,240 --> 01:21:10,240
Speaker 25: were allowed to announce it.

1715
01:21:10,280 --> 01:21:13,559
Speaker 23: So yeah, so I had three different versions. So two

1716
01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:15,000
Speaker 23: of those will never see the light of day.

1717
01:21:15,560 --> 01:21:17,000
Speaker 25: But that's kind of how that role is of just

1718
01:21:17,040 --> 01:21:19,679
Speaker 25: being able to roll when we get the official word

1719
01:21:19,720 --> 01:21:22,599
Speaker 25: that yes we can announce it, and you know it's

1720
01:21:22,600 --> 01:21:24,840
Speaker 25: been looked at and we are in a good spot.

1721
01:21:24,960 --> 01:21:27,479
Speaker 2: So so like for you when they say okay or

1722
01:21:27,640 --> 01:21:29,280
Speaker 2: it's going to be todd and you've got to get

1723
01:21:29,280 --> 01:21:31,760
Speaker 2: everything ready to go with that, what's that? What? Like

1724
01:21:31,800 --> 01:21:33,400
Speaker 2: what are your steps after that point?

1725
01:21:33,880 --> 01:21:37,240
Speaker 25: So I kind of try to consolidate, you know, everything

1726
01:21:37,320 --> 01:21:42,360
Speaker 25: I've written into one big collective piece, while also you know,

1727
01:21:42,400 --> 01:21:44,599
Speaker 25: making sure it's taking the next step forward so it's

1728
01:21:44,640 --> 01:21:47,280
Speaker 25: not just a repetitive of what I already wrote, but

1729
01:21:48,120 --> 01:21:50,680
Speaker 25: you know, finding a way to excite fans even more

1730
01:21:50,760 --> 01:21:52,960
Speaker 25: so of okay, we have a decision. This is our

1731
01:21:52,960 --> 01:21:53,479
Speaker 25: head coach.

1732
01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:56,640
Speaker 2: Here is who he is as as.

1733
01:21:56,280 --> 01:21:59,000
Speaker 25: A person as a coach, and here's everything you need

1734
01:21:59,040 --> 01:22:01,559
Speaker 25: to know about him. And so I kind of compile

1735
01:22:01,640 --> 01:22:03,320
Speaker 25: all that together. It was great. We got a couple

1736
01:22:03,360 --> 01:22:07,200
Speaker 25: of quotes from Andrew Berry from the HASLMS, and so

1737
01:22:07,320 --> 01:22:09,240
Speaker 25: that was great to also be able to work to

1738
01:22:09,640 --> 01:22:13,400
Speaker 25: add their voice into the piece so fans could also

1739
01:22:13,760 --> 01:22:17,439
Speaker 25: you know, get excited about Okay, this is what ownership thinks,

1740
01:22:17,479 --> 01:22:20,960
Speaker 25: this is what Andrew Berry thinks about Todd, and I

1741
01:22:21,000 --> 01:22:23,720
Speaker 25: can get on board behind this hire and be excited. So,

1742
01:22:24,240 --> 01:22:27,040
Speaker 25: you know, kind of putting all of those pieces together,

1743
01:22:27,760 --> 01:22:30,080
Speaker 25: and I think, you know, putting it out as you know,

1744
01:22:30,120 --> 01:22:32,559
Speaker 25: sort of the announcement of this is our head coach.

1745
01:22:33,080 --> 01:22:35,880
Speaker 2: And then today he was announced publicly here at the

1746
01:22:35,880 --> 01:22:38,000
Speaker 2: cross Country Mortgage camera right there.

1747
01:22:38,120 --> 01:22:39,120
Speaker 23: Thank you.

1748
01:22:39,880 --> 01:22:45,080
Speaker 2: Yes, a scarf, same scarf. It's freezy yah football there.

1749
01:22:45,439 --> 01:22:48,040
Speaker 2: What did you What did you think of Todd's press conference?

1750
01:22:48,360 --> 01:22:49,040
Speaker 2: I loved it.

1751
01:22:49,160 --> 01:22:53,599
Speaker 25: I think we saw the authenticity and a genuine iss

1752
01:22:53,680 --> 01:22:56,759
Speaker 25: to it that I think is really great to see

1753
01:22:56,800 --> 01:22:59,320
Speaker 25: from him, especially in that first you know, kind of

1754
01:22:59,320 --> 01:23:02,400
Speaker 25: public setting in front of media, in front of ownership,

1755
01:23:02,439 --> 01:23:05,559
Speaker 25: et cetera in this announcement, and I loved that. I thought,

1756
01:23:06,040 --> 01:23:08,719
Speaker 25: you know, seeing the emotional side, you know, getting getting

1757
01:23:08,760 --> 01:23:11,559
Speaker 25: choked up about you know, this stepping into this role

1758
01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:13,120
Speaker 25: and thinking the people that have been a part of

1759
01:23:13,120 --> 01:23:15,920
Speaker 25: his life was really cool to see, you know. And

1760
01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:19,960
Speaker 25: then the funny remarks and just the different you know,

1761
01:23:20,120 --> 01:23:23,160
Speaker 25: you saw his personality, and I think it's great. I

1762
01:23:23,320 --> 01:23:27,160
Speaker 25: also loved when he talked about the accountability aspect of

1763
01:23:27,200 --> 01:23:30,360
Speaker 25: holding players accountable and how to go about that. I

1764
01:23:30,400 --> 01:23:35,360
Speaker 25: think one us seeing that as media people, but from

1765
01:23:35,400 --> 01:23:38,439
Speaker 25: the outside knowing that's how he will approach it when

1766
01:23:38,479 --> 01:23:41,439
Speaker 25: he's in the locker room with his players, I think

1767
01:23:41,560 --> 01:23:44,920
Speaker 25: will be a testament for the season of how these

1768
01:23:44,920 --> 01:23:49,080
Speaker 25: guys react and respond to that accountability. So I thought

1769
01:23:49,080 --> 01:23:50,559
Speaker 25: it was really eye opening, you know, really just to

1770
01:23:50,600 --> 01:23:54,719
Speaker 25: hear his his thinking about it, his excitement to be here,

1771
01:23:54,960 --> 01:23:57,519
Speaker 25: you know, and really stepping into this role and knowing

1772
01:23:58,000 --> 01:24:00,800
Speaker 25: that he has the background and the coach history to

1773
01:24:00,960 --> 01:24:02,840
Speaker 25: do so and step into this role.

1774
01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:03,120
Speaker 12: Yeah.

1775
01:24:03,120 --> 01:24:04,280
Speaker 2: I thought it was cool when he talked about being

1776
01:24:04,720 --> 01:24:07,000
Speaker 2: with Kirby Smart, who won two national championships while he

1777
01:24:07,040 --> 01:24:09,320
Speaker 2: was there, and then with you know John Harbaugh who's

1778
01:24:09,360 --> 01:24:11,960
Speaker 2: won a Super Bowl, that you know, they got to

1779
01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:14,280
Speaker 2: the same point but in very different ways. And that

1780
01:24:14,400 --> 01:24:16,080
Speaker 2: I think that, you know, one of the things when

1781
01:24:16,200 --> 01:24:17,640
Speaker 2: in my interview with him that you talked about is

1782
01:24:17,640 --> 01:24:19,240
Speaker 2: that just you know, made him feel very comfortable that

1783
01:24:19,240 --> 01:24:20,360
Speaker 2: you've got to be yourself. The other thing, when you

1784
01:24:20,400 --> 01:24:22,000
Speaker 2: get a guy who's about to turn sixty, which he

1785
01:24:22,040 --> 01:24:25,280
Speaker 2: is in two days, you're going to get him you

1786
01:24:25,360 --> 01:24:26,960
Speaker 2: know what I mean, he is at that point you

1787
01:24:26,960 --> 01:24:29,400
Speaker 2: are fully formed. He is a ck teach an old

1788
01:24:29,400 --> 01:24:30,040
Speaker 2: dog new tricks.

1789
01:24:30,080 --> 01:24:30,360
Speaker 1: He is.

1790
01:24:30,840 --> 01:24:32,640
Speaker 2: He is a fully formed person and I like that.

1791
01:24:32,720 --> 01:24:34,240
Speaker 2: I think that he's going to be very authentic and

1792
01:24:34,280 --> 01:24:36,160
Speaker 2: true to who he is. And I think you have

1793
01:24:36,200 --> 01:24:37,600
Speaker 2: to be in this role absolutely.

1794
01:24:37,640 --> 01:24:40,599
Speaker 25: And I think these young guys, especially as you know

1795
01:24:40,680 --> 01:24:43,160
Speaker 25: Andrew talked about, they are going to be a young roster.

1796
01:24:43,840 --> 01:24:47,479
Speaker 25: You need somebody who's going to be authentically themselves. Because

1797
01:24:47,520 --> 01:24:49,960
Speaker 25: if that's what you're asking for for your players, both

1798
01:24:50,360 --> 01:24:53,040
Speaker 25: on the field but also off the field, you also

1799
01:24:53,160 --> 01:24:56,240
Speaker 25: have to show that same authenticity. And I think him

1800
01:24:56,240 --> 01:25:00,000
Speaker 25: being who he is will be something that these players,

1801
01:25:00,200 --> 01:25:03,200
Speaker 25: both you know, young and you know veteran players can

1802
01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:09,040
Speaker 25: rally around and really buy into what he's building offensively

1803
01:25:09,080 --> 01:25:12,360
Speaker 25: and defensively and on special teams. But you know, the

1804
01:25:12,400 --> 01:25:16,480
Speaker 25: collective culture for the team, if it's built on that authenticity,

1805
01:25:16,520 --> 01:25:18,120
Speaker 25: I think it's going to be a really good thing

1806
01:25:18,160 --> 01:25:18,880
Speaker 25: moving forward.

1807
01:25:19,320 --> 01:25:22,080
Speaker 2: Brown's have just posted some pictures of Todd Monkin, the

1808
01:25:22,120 --> 01:25:24,720
Speaker 2: new head coach of the Cleveland Browns, and a pen

1809
01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:28,280
Speaker 2: to paper. It's officially official. So we've got those pictures

1810
01:25:28,280 --> 01:25:30,960
Speaker 2: there of Todd suited up today. I thought looked very

1811
01:25:30,960 --> 01:25:33,960
Speaker 2: sharp today, looked very sharp out there. So for you,

1812
01:25:34,200 --> 01:25:35,880
Speaker 2: as we go through kind of we had ninety days

1813
01:25:35,920 --> 01:25:38,760
Speaker 2: left in this in very important one twenty, what's kind

1814
01:25:38,760 --> 01:25:42,000
Speaker 2: of on the horizon for you from a content standpoint. No,

1815
01:25:42,040 --> 01:25:44,240
Speaker 2: we got the staff announcements that have got to come

1816
01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:46,040
Speaker 2: when those are taken care of, and that was kind

1817
01:25:46,080 --> 01:25:48,240
Speaker 2: of priority one. We heard Todd talk about. We got

1818
01:25:48,280 --> 01:25:51,280
Speaker 2: the combine coming up, then we got free agency, and

1819
01:25:51,320 --> 01:25:54,519
Speaker 2: we got the draft. I mean, it is it's go,

1820
01:25:54,520 --> 01:25:56,719
Speaker 2: go go. I say like, Oh, it's the off season,

1821
01:25:56,840 --> 01:25:59,160
Speaker 2: So are you like so relaxing. I'm like, there's no

1822
01:25:59,200 --> 01:26:01,080
Speaker 2: off season. There is no off season.

1823
01:26:01,160 --> 01:26:01,680
Speaker 23: Yeah, I know that.

1824
01:26:01,800 --> 01:26:04,360
Speaker 25: So now we'll go through this coaching part of it,

1825
01:26:04,720 --> 01:26:07,640
Speaker 25: round out this staff, and then kind of at the

1826
01:26:07,680 --> 01:26:10,720
Speaker 25: same time diving into Combine and preparing for that and

1827
01:26:10,800 --> 01:26:15,160
Speaker 25: so being ready for you know, those media interviews and

1828
01:26:15,320 --> 01:26:17,240
Speaker 25: seeing who's going to be kind of talked about in

1829
01:26:17,280 --> 01:26:19,720
Speaker 25: those conversations, and then we'll dive right in, like you said,

1830
01:26:19,760 --> 01:26:23,280
Speaker 25: to free agency, continue preparation for the draft. So it

1831
01:26:23,320 --> 01:26:27,920
Speaker 25: kind of happened simultaneously. There will be annual league meetings

1832
01:26:27,960 --> 01:26:31,000
Speaker 25: also in there at the end of March, which I'll

1899
01:29:35,000 --> 01:29:36,080
Speaker 23: have some guests to be.

1900
01:29:36,000 --> 01:29:37,240
Speaker 2: I would really talked about it. I feel like the

1901
01:29:37,280 --> 01:29:40,040
Speaker 2: Super Bowl has been not a yeah you touched on

1902
01:29:40,080 --> 01:29:40,599
Speaker 2: it yesterday.

1903
01:29:40,600 --> 01:29:42,719
Speaker 24: It doesn't have a lot of hype. No hype around

1904
01:29:42,720 --> 01:29:46,080
Speaker 24: this super Bowl. I I don't know why. It's probably

1905
01:29:46,080 --> 01:29:48,679
Speaker 24: because the Patriots people are sick of seeing the Patriots win.

1906
01:29:49,479 --> 01:29:53,160
Speaker 24: And the Seahawks, you know, they're not the Seahawks of old.

1907
01:29:53,200 --> 01:29:56,640
Speaker 24: They're not the Russell Wilson, Marshawn Lynch, Doug Baldwin Seahawks.

1908
01:29:56,680 --> 01:29:59,360
Speaker 23: You know, I mean, you get JSN. He's a fun

1909
01:29:59,400 --> 01:29:59,960
Speaker 23: player to walk.

1910
01:30:00,320 --> 01:30:04,599
Speaker 24: But I don't know, Like I like Sam Donald, is

1911
01:30:04,600 --> 01:30:06,360
Speaker 24: that really moving the needle for a Super Bowl?

1912
01:30:06,360 --> 01:30:06,840
Speaker 23: Probably not.

1913
01:30:07,280 --> 01:30:09,120
Speaker 2: No, I just think if it was like Rams Bills,

1914
01:30:09,160 --> 01:30:11,479
Speaker 2: it would be right because there's legacies on the line.

1915
01:30:11,520 --> 01:30:13,080
Speaker 2: Then you're looking at Staff a little bit of a

1916
01:30:13,120 --> 01:30:14,960
Speaker 2: legacy for Sam Donald. They think about it. You think

1917
01:30:14,960 --> 01:30:17,160
Speaker 2: about Sam Donald being in a draft with the people

1918
01:30:17,160 --> 01:30:19,240
Speaker 2: that he was in a draft with, and he's the

1919
01:30:19,280 --> 01:30:21,160
Speaker 2: first one to play in a Super Bowl and he

1920
01:30:21,240 --> 01:30:22,880
Speaker 2: is potentially the first one to win a Super Bowl.

1921
01:30:22,880 --> 01:30:27,719
Speaker 2: When you've got three MVPs between Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson,

1922
01:30:28,920 --> 01:30:29,200
Speaker 2: that is.

1923
01:30:29,200 --> 01:30:31,080
Speaker 23: Pretty nuts to when you frame it that way.

1924
01:30:31,280 --> 01:30:32,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, So.

1925
01:30:34,120 --> 01:30:36,800
Speaker 19: There's a lot well, I think sports right now too,

1926
01:30:37,080 --> 01:30:38,719
Speaker 19: Like that's probably why too.

1927
01:30:38,760 --> 01:30:40,480
Speaker 4: There's a lot going on in sports.

1928
01:30:41,080 --> 01:30:42,639
Speaker 23: Yeah, you got the Olympics coming.

1929
01:30:42,400 --> 01:30:44,839
Speaker 2: Out, Olympics coming up. You got the NBA trade deadline,

1930
01:30:44,840 --> 01:30:47,320
