Speaker 2: You were born at dog.

00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:05,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was born at so I was trying to

4
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:06,480
Speaker 3: figure out what do you say here?

5
00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 1: Uh?

6
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 3: I was like, I'm a brown now just on my country,

7
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:11,319
Speaker 3: so I'm a brown. And I thought about it, and

8
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:14,200
Speaker 3: I was like, I'm a dog, but I was a

9
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:15,600
Speaker 3: dog already when I was born.

10
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:21,440

Speaker 1: you don't miss that part.

27

Speaker 2: feel anyvator. We had seventy four in sunny yesterday and today.

29
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,399
Speaker 2: As I look out my window, it is a wall

30
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 2: of fog. It looks like it looks like London. I

31
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 2: cannot see more than five feet out my kitchen windows.

32
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 2: I truly do mean it's five feet. That's it. It

33
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 2: is a wall of fog. But once don't drive in it.

34
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 2: That What is the temperature, Alexa, what's the temperature? This

00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: Thank you? What we have going on?

37
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 2: Okay, So I mean it's not a contest, as I

38
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 2: would always like to, like, do you ever say to

39
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 2: your wife, hey, it's not a contest, it's not a contest.

40
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 1: Like yes, okay, and then she threatens to throw punch me,

41
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: and then I'm like, yeah, okay, all right, So I

42
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: guess I'm wrong on that.

43
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 2: Coming up one of my new favorite browns, And I

44
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 2: truly do mean this. You were going to love our conversation,

45
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 2: and more importantly, you're going to love when you see

46
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 2: him on the field with Quincy Williams, who is going

47
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 2: to be wearing number five with your Cleveland Browns. You

48
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:28,519
Speaker 2: were fifty six with the Jets. He's going to be

49
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 2: warring number five. Your new Browns linebacker who likes to

50
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 2: fancy himself as the joker from the Batman will be

51
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 2: joining us. He's kind of amazing.

52
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 1: Had a hell of a press conference on Friday, and

53
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 1: I'm told that the interview to come is right up

54
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 1: there with that press conference.

55
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 2: So I interviewed Quincy Williams before he sat down for

56
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 2: his zoom or it was a podium. They weren't in

57
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 2: the building. They meaning the rest of the assemble Browns media.

58
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 2: Before he sat down, he sat down with me before

59
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 2: he sat down with them. He's got the energy and

60
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 2: he really stands out among this group of free agents here.

61
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 2: Let's talk about the entire group, and I joke is

62
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 2: free agency over?

63
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:15,519
Speaker 1: It is not over.

64
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 2: There are other waves of free agency as.

65
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:18,799
Speaker 1: We sit here.

66
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 2: There are many big name players who are still out there,

67
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 2: like guys like Keenan Allen for example, on the wide

68
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 2: receiver market, Christian Kirk on the wide receiver market. As

69
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 2: I know a lot of Browns fans would like to

70
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 2: see moves made at the wide receiver position. Don't know,

71
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 2: and I'm not trying to say that those guys are

72
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 2: going to be joining the Browns. Don't put words in

73
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 2: my mouth, but I'm saying there are plenty of names there.

74
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 2: But as we sit down and record this today on St.

75
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 2: Patrick's Dan, the sixteenth of the month of March in

76
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 2: twenty twenty six, the first wave is kind of over.

77
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 2: Quincy Williams is the keyp on key peace, I beg

78
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 2: your pardon. On the defensive side, Khalia Davis was added

79
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 2: late last week as well. Veteran defensive tackle comes over

80
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 2: from the forty nine ers. He is added to that

81
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 2: defensive tackle rotation. The headline moves here, Gibbe are about

82
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 2: the offensive line. Titus Howard on Monday reiterated to the

83
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 2: assembled media what he told us on last week's issue

84
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 2: of BPA. He is going to play right tackle. So

85
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 2: the big question mark as we record this again is

86
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,599
Speaker 2: still about Joel Botonio. If he decides to come back,

87
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,919
Speaker 2: he would be your left guard. If he does not

88
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 2: decide to come back, then your left guard would for

89
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,280
Speaker 2: all intents and purposes, be Zion Johnson. And then it

90
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 2: becomes where do you play Elton Jenkins. Is he your center?

91
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:44,840
Speaker 2: Is he your right guard? Is Tevin Jenkins your right guard?

92
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 2: Or is he maybe your swing inside piece?

93
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,359
Speaker 1: A lot of pieces and parts to figure out. We

94
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 1: talked about it last week on the podcast. A lot

95
00:04:55,800 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: of offensive lineman weapons that can play multiple positions, so

96
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: a lot to be determined. But you gotta like the

97
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 1: versatility that these signings bring to the table. I was

98
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 1: impressed by all of them at the podium. And I

99
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 1: get it. It's the opening press conference. Very rarely do

100
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: you ever lose the opening press conference. It's hard to do.

101
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: That's right, it has done.

102
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 2: There are some I mean Nick Sirianni lost his opening

103
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 2: press conference. He turned out to be okay. There are

104
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 2: plenty of coaches who have done that over the years.

105
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, But I mean, they all said the right things.

106
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 1: But I liked the matter of factness that all of

107
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: them came to the table with Elton Jenkins was I'm

108
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: not gonna pull any punches. This is how this is

109
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,600
Speaker 1: gonna go, this is what I'm expecting, this is why

110
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 1: I'm here. Zion Johnson had some really poignant comments as well,

111
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: especially about our offensive line coach George Warhap being a

112
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 1: big factor and the reason why he decided to come here.

113
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 1: George Warrett clearly was a factor in a lot of

114
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,119
Speaker 1: our guys to come here, which I thought was great

115
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 1: and you'll hear in the coming weeks as well. Jack

116
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: Stole didn't get a chance to do podium, but he

117
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 1: did some interviews, especially with our own Nathan Zegura. And again,

118
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 1: these guys, there was no beating around the bush. They

119
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: got right to the point.

120
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I've seen some of the I haven't seen

121
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 2: Nathan's injury yet, look forward to that, but I've seen

122
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,159
Speaker 2: some of the Browns' Instagram videos, Jack Stole obviously making

123
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,839
Speaker 2: his way around the building, Elton Jenkins as well.

124
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:32,040
Speaker 1: I think they all have both.

125
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 2: They both have great energy, and then that comes through

126
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 2: in the Zion Zion Johnson, who I have not interviewed yet,

127
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 2: but I saw his zoom is media availability. What stood

128
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 2: out to me, and I think this is important here

129
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 2: Browns fans, is that he unsolicited said Hey, watching Quinchhn

130
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 2: Judkins last year, I went, hey, I want to play

131
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 2: with that guy.

132
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: That guy stood out to me.

133
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 2: And some of the young pieces the Browns last year's

134
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 2: draft class notably put on the field last year are

135
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 2: calling cards. Now are reasons to want to sign with

136
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 2: the Browns and want to go play with those guys.

137
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 2: And he pointed out one run which got called back.

138
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 2: It was in London Week five when we were there

139
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 2: and lost to the Vikings, but he pointed out that

140
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 2: Quinchon had a counterplay to the left and busted through

141
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 2: the line and went, oh, who is that guy? I

142
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 2: know none of us liked only having one. Wasn't a

143
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 2: primetime game a standalone game last year it was the

144
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 2: London game, but that game actually mattered because I know

145
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 2: money is the final determining factor in most free agent signings.

146
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 2: But Zion Johnson saw Quinchewn Judkins in that game on

147
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 2: a national stage as he was getting ready to play

148
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 2: his game that morning and went, oh, wow, that's a

149
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 2: guy I would want to play with.

150
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 1: That's right, And at that time, I mean, he had

151
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: a couple other guys that were pretty good running backs

152
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 1: that he's blocked for. So I just I like the

153
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: group that they've assembled, and I'm fascinated to see where

154
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: all the pieces and parts end up. I mean, the

155
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 1: Joel Beatonio waiting game continues, and he's earned that right

156
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: to take all the time that he needs to make

157
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 1: the proper decision.

158
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, what do you read into that? What does your

159
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 2: gut tell you? Because part of my gut says to me, well,

160
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 2: I fear this. I don't know this, Like is he

161
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 2: thinking of is he thinking a plane somewhere else?

162
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. Yeah, I mean I

163
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,439
Speaker 1: think all the options are on the table. I think

164
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 1: he's going through everything with his wife and with his

165
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 1: family and you know, trying to figure out he's He's

166
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:41,319
Speaker 1: got a lot of loyalty.

167
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 2: We do know that, and that's one of the reasons,

168
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 2: one of the many reasons we love.

169
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, just like Joe Thomas, like, yes, I really want

170
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 1: to play for one team in my career. Now will

171
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 1: that change? Has that changed? I don't know. I don't

172
00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 1: know what the feeling is. I mean, technically he is

173
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 1: a free agent exactly, you know, has his agent been

174
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 1: contacted by other teams? You know? I would think that

175
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 1: he would be in demand if he were indeed coming

176
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 1: back and a free agent, and the Browns would have

177
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,720
Speaker 1: some stiff competition to resign him. I think the Browns,

178
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 1: you know, could get the deal done. But it's it's

179
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 1: coming down to what Joel wants. And I remember Joe

180
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: Thomas telling us, you know, it's awful hard to walk

181
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: away from the money you make as an athlete when

182
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: they're paying you to play a game because that you love.

183
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 1: Where else are you going to make that kind of money.

184
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 2: And I'm not saying he's made out money, but yes,

185
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 2: I've heard, obviously Joe say that both on and off

186
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 2: the air. He's absolutely right. And I want to make

187
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 2: something clear here. I don't know that Joel wants to

188
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,680
Speaker 2: go somewhere else. Correct. I'm a fan here. I have

189
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 2: not reached out to him, fan who is mildly anxious

190
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 2: about it. I would love to see him come back.

191
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,199
Speaker 2: And as we discussed with Titus Howard last week, hey

192
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 2: you put your best five out there, they'll figure it out.

193
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,559
Speaker 2: I think some people look at the Elton Jenkins signing

194
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 2: and when oh, that means Joel's not coming back. No,

195
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 2: it doesn't, but it does mean you're better prepared if

196
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 2: he chooses to walk away.

197
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think you know, for Joel, you know it.

198
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 1: Joe Thomas said the same thing, like, I'd love to

199
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 1: come back and play more, my body won't and my

200
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 1: wife finally, was like, I want you to be able

201
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: to like pick up the kids and run around with

202
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 1: the kids at age thirty five, Like that's important. I

203
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,839
Speaker 1: want you to be of sound mind and body. And

204
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: you know, I'm sure Joel is tussling with that as well,

205
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: Like he's he's been banged up pretty good over the

206
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 1: last couple of years and throughout his career, and you know,

207
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 1: it takes a toll on you. And how much do

208
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:55,959
Speaker 1: you want to go through and how much do you

209
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 1: want to do that? And you know the amount of

210
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: time now that's being real acquired of a lot of

211
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 1: players away from their families. There's not really an off season, Like,

212
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 1: let's be honest, So there is an off season, yeah,

213
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 1: and in season so much is required of you. It's

214
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: I think he's got a lot to decide. I don't

215
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:19,680
Speaker 1: envy that decision.

216
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 2: So we're waiting on that piece. The Browns obviously have

217
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 2: some other moves. They will eventually make the second the

218
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 2: third wave of free agency. I'm glad you mentioned Jack

219
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 2: Stole because he's Look, he's not a guy. He's not

220
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 2: going to be a guy to stretch the field. But

221
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 2: when it comes to a blocking tight end, you probably

222
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 2: need two or three of them. Obviously, he is now

223
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,559
Speaker 2: one of the first ones in the building you lose

224
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 2: Jerome Ford. I don't know that anyone thought Jerome was

225
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 2: going to come back. And Jerome certainly had his moments

226
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 2: over the years, whether he was a starter or comet

227
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 2: off the bench or a guy that was last year

228
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 2: relied upon on third down. A third down back who

229
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 2: knows his protections, who can help out your quarterback is vital.

230
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 2: Jerome had some great moments with the Browns. I remember

231
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 2: his fourth down end around in Jacksonville to help win

232
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 2: that game a couple of years ago, Week two. I

233
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:14,079
Speaker 2: will never forget breaking tackles Jim with the legendary call.

234
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 2: As well when the Browns in twenty twenty three on

235
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 2: TNF in December beat the Jets to clinch a spot

236
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 2: in the postseason, where he took that little check down

237
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 2: and kept going and going and going and going. I

238
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:27,680
Speaker 2: was in the stands for that one. That was one

239
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 2: of my favorite Jerome Ford moments. Do you have one, sir?

240
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: I don't know if I have a favorite moment. I

241
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,359
Speaker 1: just always a super quiet guy, went about his business,

242
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 1: did what was asked of him. I felt like he

243
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 1: might have gotten lost in the shuffle this past season

244
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:48,119
Speaker 1: because he was a very serviceable back for us, especially

245
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:50,959
Speaker 1: that you know that year that Nick Chubb went down,

246
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 1: a lot was required and he came through and you know,

247
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 1: didn't get maybe the credit that he should have just

248
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,199
Speaker 1: and should have gotten. But a guy that just showed

249
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 1: up every day and worked hard, and you know, I think,

250
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I'm assuming given what happened last year,

251
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,199
Speaker 1: maybe he was a little frustrated and maybe a good

252
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:15,559
Speaker 1: change of scenery.

253
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 2: For both parties. Yeah, absolutely wish him well in Washington.

254
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 2: A crowded running back room there, and a lot of

255
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 2: people think maybe the Commanders might be in the Jeremiah

256
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 2: Love game as well in the top ten. But we

257
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,319
Speaker 2: have some time before we have to get to the

258
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 2: night of April twenty third. On the defensive side, there

259
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 2: are still some guys out there unsigned mj Emerson, bakmoub

260
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 2: Dia Bade, Jerome Baker, Rayshawn Jenkins, Shelby Harris, who did

261
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 2: a good job last week on Good Morning Football on

262
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 2: NFL Network, texted Shelby told him he as a TV

263
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 2: star in the making. Said it was just like CB

264
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 2: Deep but different so Shelby certainly has a bright future there.

265
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 2: I think there's a chance for some of those guys

266
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:56,599
Speaker 2: to come back. Maybe one or two would love to

267
00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,199
Speaker 2: see MJ. Emerson come back. Don't know where that stands.

268
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 2: We saw MJ obviously, who had been in the building

269
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 2: a lot. He's recovering from the Achilles injury that happened

270
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 2: in training camp. We'll see what's up with MJ.

271
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you knew Devin Bush was going to

272
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: be the first free agent off the board, but it's

273
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:18,680
Speaker 1: surprising that the second and third guys were Cam Thomas

274
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 1: and Jerome Ford. I think a lot of people expected

275
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: Why Teller to be off the board, David Najoku to

276
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: be off the board, and what's gonna happen with MJ?

277
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 1: And those guys are still still free agents and still

278
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: a chance for the Browns to go out and maybe

279
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 1: bring them back in.

280
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 2: David Njoker, here's my prediction. He enjoys this summer. He

281
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 2: lives the summer of Najoku, and that he signs somewhere,

282
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 2: maybe the first week of training camp and ends up

283
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 2: scoring like four touchdowns in September.

284
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 1: Somewhere red zone target only.

285
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 2: But he'll be fine.

286
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 1: There you go.

287
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, there we go.

288
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 1: Coming up.

289
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 2: Our look ahead to the schedule. But before we do that,

290
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 2: before we do, ladies and gentlemen, your newest linebacker. He's

291
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 2: gonna be worrying. Number five, Quincy Williams, best podcast available

292
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 2: and the best linebacker available for the Browns. The newest

293
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 2: member of that liebacker room joins us now in BPA

294
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:20,520
Speaker 2: Quincy Williams, who just said, Quincy, you were born a dog.

295
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was born. So I was trying to figure

296
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 3: out what do you say here. I was like, I'm

297
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 3: a Brown now. I just signed my country's I'm a Brown.

298
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 3: And I thought about it, and I was like, I'm

299
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 3: a dog, but I was a dog already when I

300
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 3: was born.

301
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 2: You were born a dog? My friend, Hey, this is

302
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 2: your destiny? Is that what you're saying?

303
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's my Deskney for real?

304
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 2: How did you take me through this process? Rudy called

305
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 2: you up? Who called you up? How'd you become a Brown?

306
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 3: Rudy called me up, said he trust me, and I say, yeah,

307
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 3: I trust you. And then so we had another conversation

308
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 3: for a personal conversation. We got a personal relationship. Who

309
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 3: was my first line a coach in the league, and

310
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 3: so he's been all three teams with me too, So

311
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 3: we just got a different kind of relationship for real.

312
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 4: The biggest thing was he was like, do you trust me?

313
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 3: I was like yeah, and then he was like I

314
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 3: need you and I was like, all right, bet, I'm

315
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 3: on the way.

316
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 1: I love that.

317
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 2: Did you see his press conference last week in Cleveland?

318
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 1: Nah?

319
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 3: I didn't really see the press cont because I been

320
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 3: staying off social media other than just the reposts and

321
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 3: stuff like that, just because everything's been going on.

322
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 2: You mentioned, so.

323
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 1: He mentioned.

324
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 4: That's what he said. He didn't say that.

325
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 2: Building a personal relationship with a player and how you know,

326
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 2: as a as a young position coach, like that's such

327
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 2: an important thing. Obviously now he's a defensive coordinator, but

328
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 2: he used like bonding with you as an example of

329
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 2: connecting with players and building something.

330
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 4: Yeah. His philosophy is you can get more off a

331
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 4: guy if you know what is why he is. And

332
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 4: he takes that whole hardly.

333
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 3: I mean far as like starting every single meeting novel like, hey,

334
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 3: how you feeling? I mean as being a player, not

335
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,280
Speaker 3: a lot of play, not a lot of people, how

336
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 3: you feeling just because it's in your nature to be strong,

337
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 3: and it's also in your nature that you're getting paid

338
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 3: me and dollars, so you got to be happy. You

339
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 3: don't have a financial burden or anything, so you don't

340
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,440
Speaker 3: have anything to be sad about. But he actually get

341
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 3: into the deep rooted as far as like family and

342
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 3: things like that. So when you're on the field, when

343
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,920
Speaker 3: you're playing for someone like that, you have that mindset

344
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 3: of like, I'm feeding my family, but I'm also feeding

345
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,440
Speaker 3: that guy's right there family. He cares about me, and

346
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 3: he came in return and turned it back and called

347
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 3: me and said, hey, I need you here. So he's

348
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:32,239
Speaker 3: here to feed my family, So you know what I'm

349
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 3: here to do, feed their family.

350
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 2: Tell us about what this defense is going to look like.

351
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 2: You've played against the Browns when you know Jim Schwartz

352
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 2: is here in twenty twenty three, when the Browns made

353
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:42,679
Speaker 2: the playoffs last year. I don't even want to bring

354
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:43,879
Speaker 2: up las year's game because I was one of the

355
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:45,720
Speaker 2: worst games we've been doing my entire life. I'm sorry

356
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 2: you were there, you had a sack, you had a

357
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:49,360
Speaker 2: great game. I know you didn't start that day we'll

358
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 2: get to that in the second. But like that game

359
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,639
Speaker 2: was a mess. But you've seen the Browns defense, and

360
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 2: you know what you guys played with the Jets. Not

361
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 2: only forget about last year, the years pasted defense.

362
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 3: We talked about the year, the all Pro, my all

363
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 3: Pro year. So it's very good coming back from a

364
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 3: defense that's exact same. Same for Banks to me saying,

365
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 3: I can't say exact same. I just got here today.

366
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 3: So but far as what I've heard in the quick

367
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 3: car watch conversations I've had, sounds like the same defense

368
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 3: we'nna be.

369
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 4: Asked to do the same thing.

370
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 3: So I'm excited about that just because that's why I

371
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 3: feel the most comfort comfortable at And then also that's

372
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:28,959
Speaker 3: something I feel like I've mastered already, and so the

373
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 3: new things that the Browns asked me to do, I'm

374
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 3: cool with doing those things too, for sure.

375
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:34,880
Speaker 2: So let's go back to that game last year. Because

376
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:36,879
Speaker 2: you have kind of no no hear me out, I

377
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 2: just don't talk about your journey. It's kind of a

378
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:42,160
Speaker 2: roller coaster year for you, right last year, Yeah, last

379
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 2: year a little bit. You came back with a vengeance.

380
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 2: What was last year like for you. I ain't.

381
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 4: They ain't put me on the bench. Oh you talking

382
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 4: about that one incident.

383
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 3: That one Yeah, that one incident was more of a

384
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:58,400
Speaker 3: me coming back from injury. I was about five games

385
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,159
Speaker 3: from an injury, and then me and one of the

386
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 3: coaches didn't see eye on one of the plays or whatever.

387
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 3: So me just now coming back from injury. Of course

388
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,639
Speaker 3: he's going to pull his big, big, big brother pants on,

389
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 3: you feel me. So he set me down and I

390
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 3: didn't start, but I think I only sat down with

391
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 3: three plays and then starting the rest of the game,

392
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,640
Speaker 3: had a killer game. So what I can take from

393
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 3: that is you can't be holding me back. No one

394
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,200
Speaker 3: can tell Qusy what he can and can't do for real.

395
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 2: You know, we go to the Jets, actually played there twice,

396
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 2: Jets and last year.

397
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,679
Speaker 4: Yeah it's hey, I'm the joker. I'm going back to

398
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 4: Godlin City.

399
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:37,360
Speaker 1: So you've already thought about.

400
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 3: It, man, I circled it on my calendar. Maybe maybe

401
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:41,679
Speaker 3: I picked this team because they played the Jets.

402
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:42,199
Speaker 4: You never know?

403
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:48,159
Speaker 2: Did that? Actually? You know I was going through your

404
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 2: game walk. You've never played against your brother. You've played

405
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 2: with your brother, but never against your brother.

406
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 3: I played on my first year, our first year, and

407
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 3: we jersey swapped and stuff. So that was the first

408
00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,119
Speaker 3: year he was on the Jets. I was on the

409
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:03,399
Speaker 3: Jaguars the first year. My family literally sold out that game.

410
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:07,240
Speaker 3: I'm so thankful for my support system. We don't play

411
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 3: the Cowboys this year, doing.

412
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,880
Speaker 2: No, we do this year. Totally forgot about that one.

413
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 2: Malachi Corley, when the news of you coming to Cleveland

414
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 2: got on on social media, he reached out or he commented.

415
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 2: Do you see what he said?

416
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 4: No?

417
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 3: I didn't, but I have a video of Malaka trying

418
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 3: to run me over in training camp last year and

419
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,120
Speaker 3: was at the JITs and I folded him and made

420
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:29,120
Speaker 3: him fumble.

421
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 4: So yeah, you probably had me. I'm here on his team.

422
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 2: You made him into a phone book. Is that what

423
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:36,400
Speaker 2: you said?

424
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 4: No, let's say a launcher made him into a launchaer.

425
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:45,400
Speaker 1: So here's what he said.

426
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 2: He said, that's a brown if I ever done met

427
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 2: one with the one hundred.

428
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:53,639
Speaker 4: There you go, doll, straight, doll, there you go.

429
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:58,440
Speaker 2: One last thing here? Uh you, as I mentioned, were

430
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 2: in the building in twenty twenty three when the Browns

431
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 2: Joe flackwis quarterback on a Thursday night, made the playoffs

432
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 2: and that building was rocking. Obviously, Browns fans want to

433
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 2: get back to that feeling. What do you remember about

434
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 2: that night and the way Huntington Bank Field was shaking.

435
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:18,479
Speaker 4: It was shaken.

436
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 3: But what I do remember is on the field, the

437
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 3: way the players celebrated.

438
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 4: What I do remember is like the overwhelming of.

439
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 3: The players against us, and it's me coming as like

440
00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 3: talking as the opposing player right now, just the overwhelming

441
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,719
Speaker 3: of the offense and the defense as they were beating us,

442
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 3: and then the fans also.

443
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 4: Bringing into it. So you felt the overwhelmen.

444
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 3: Of like the fans on you and then also having

445
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 3: to go against this guy who's talking all this stuff,

446
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,719
Speaker 3: who's celebrating in your face and stuff, just saying, bro,

447
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 3: y'all just got a little bit more time. So you're

448
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,360
Speaker 3: actually giving me advice and beating me. Now, that's that's

449
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 3: the best form of disrespect. So that's the best form

450
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,680
Speaker 3: of disrespect. I'm coming here to bring.

451
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:55,679
Speaker 2: I love it. I love it.

452
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: Actually, No, I lied.

453
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 2: One more thing.

454
00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: You met Tarvor, right, Jason Tarvor your position coach?

455
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 4: Yeah?

456
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 1: I did, okay, did he.

457
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 3: Got a lot of history, a lot of history, man,

458
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 3: He actually coached my deef as a coordinator from a

459
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 3: pro year brick So learning all that information, didn't learning

460
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 3: his tree and then learn the relationship that he has

461
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 3: a rooty rudy giving him that salute as.

462
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 4: One of those things. Well, all right, my Lineberry coaches verified.

463
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:22,640
Speaker 2: Good, we love the guy. Do you know that you

464
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 2: and he have the same birthday?

465
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 4: Hang it in, tell me that.

466
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 2: There you go, that's crazy.

467
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 4: I literally just finished talking to him.

468
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 2: There you go, I have the same birthday as well.

469
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:32,480

00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 2: Quincy Williams, who after he did that, sat down on

478
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 2: the podium and did the whole uh cheated chasing a

479
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 2: gazelle thing.

480
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 1: You caught that, right, you bay? I did. I did.

481
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,679
Speaker 1: Got a good laugh from Jeff Shudell.

482
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 4: H it was.

483
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 1: It was quite the entertaining press conference.

484
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:08,719
Speaker 2: Uh.

485
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: And I like him. I like Quincy, And I say well,

486
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:17,360
Speaker 1: I could use a little personality infused into into that

487
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:19,400
Speaker 1: defensive side.

488
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,080
Speaker 2: Of the football. There was also a part of his

489
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 2: h Quincy Williams meeting with the rest of the media

490
00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 2: in which he was asked about Carson Swestern Jerney, have

491
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:30,879
Speaker 2: you met him yet or if familiar with him, and

492
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:32,280
Speaker 2: what are you going to be like in the in

493
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,720
Speaker 2: the interview, I'm sorry in the linebacker room, and he

494
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,600
Speaker 2: said something along the lines of I have to get

495
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 2: in there and figure out how much Quincy the room

496
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:43,160
Speaker 2: can take.

497
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:49,880
Speaker 1: And I'm like, Okay, buckle up. I mean, number one,

498
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:53,439
Speaker 1: the legendary Jason Tarver has got enough personality to carry

499
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 1: the room. And now you're gonna throw Quincy into that mix. Uh,

500
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:00,640
Speaker 1: it's gonna be It's He's going to be a fun

501
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,720
Speaker 1: dynamic to watch. And if Quincy Williams can be the

502
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: guy that he was in New York yeah when he

503
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 1: got first team All Pro, I mean I'll sign up

504
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:13,679
Speaker 1: for that all day, absolutely, And I think there's a chance,

505
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 1: you know, he could get that back. You know, we'll

506
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 1: see how it all shakes out. But that's an important

507
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 1: signing for this football team, especially going into the draft,

508
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 1: because now you're not as worried about making that a priority,

509
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 1: where after losing Devin Bush it became a priority absolutely.

510
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 2: And as Quincy just told me there he is excited

511
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 2: to go back to New York and face the Jets

512
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,639
Speaker 2: and actually go back there twice to play twice in

513
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 2: met Life Stadium. I don't know if we're excited about that,

514
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 2: but the Browns do play both the Jets and the

515
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 2: Giants on the road this year, So gibbe as excited

516
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 2: as I am for the Guardian season about to get underway.

517
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 2: And obviously the Calves are in their thing right now

518
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:54,119
Speaker 2: with varying degrees of success. I sat down on Sunday

519
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 2: morning with a cup of coffee, enjoying an ice quiet

520
00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 2: Sunday morning at home going. I can't wait for the

521
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 2: schedule to come out, as in almost Bronze fans likely

522
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 2: feel the same. So here's what I did. You're gonna

523
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:09,679
Speaker 2: think I'm nuts. I started going through the first three

524
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 2: Sundays in September on the baseball calendar, trying to figure

525
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:20,359
Speaker 2: out with AFC North, obviously, with the Pirates, the Orioles,

526
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 2: the Reds and our Guardians, who is home, who is away,

527
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,680
Speaker 2: and where we could potentially be because we generally start

528
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 2: with AFC North games right where we could potentially be

529
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:37,480
Speaker 2: in September. By the way, it's impossible to figure this out,

530
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:43,040
Speaker 2: absolutely impossible, but I did see this. It's all speculation.

531
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:43,879
Speaker 1: That's right.

532
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 2: Week one, everybody, the Guardians, the Pirates, the Orioles, and

533
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 2: the Reds, everyone's baseball team is on the road. Week one,

534
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:56,400
Speaker 2: on that first Sunday. Okay, Week two, everybody's baseball team

535
00:25:56,440 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 2: is at home, which means nothing.

536
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,880
Speaker 1: What a week like a Thursday night, I mean Thursdays.

537
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:09,160
Speaker 2: I'm looking at Thursdays. Now. Week three, the entire AFC

538
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 2: North has its baseball teams on the road, so they're

539
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:18,160
Speaker 2: synced everyone. I don't know if baseball does that on purpose,

540
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 2: but everybody is sync now. For example, the Orioles same

541
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 2: parking lot are not going to have the Orioles and

542
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 2: Ravens are not going to play the same day.

543
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:29,440
Speaker 1: They try to avoid that.

544
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 2: They try to avoid The Reds and the Bengals are

545
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,359
Speaker 2: never going to play the same day. Those stadiums are

546
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:39,200
Speaker 2: side by side. It's just not going to happen. The

547
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:43,199
Speaker 2: Pirates ballpark and the Steelers across the river are not

548
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:46,440
Speaker 2: the same right. So, but if the entire AFC North

549
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 2: has home baseball Week two, I could tell you we

550
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:53,040
Speaker 2: are not going to be in Cincinnati or Baltimore week

551
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,359
Speaker 2: number two. That's all I've been able to figure out

552
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:56,440
Speaker 2: so far for the schedule.

553
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 1: So we'll be in Cincinnati or Baltimore in week two.

554
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 1: Of course, maybe it'll be a Sunday night, and like

555
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 1: it's it's a you know, I don't.

556
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 2: And for everyone blowing blown up my phone about Paris, guys,

557
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,159
Speaker 2: we know nothing about that. We know nothing about it.

558
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,120
Speaker 2: I don't know that it was from any way, shape

559
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:12,440
Speaker 2: or form.

560
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: That goes from my daughter as well. Stop texting.

561
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 2: I don't know anything about that at all.

562
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:19,120
Speaker 1: Right, there's a lot of speculation.

563
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 2: I don't think any of it is true, to be

564
00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 2: quite frank, But which is I could tell you no,

565
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:23,879
Speaker 2: one knows nothing.

566
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,119
Speaker 1: That's a lot of negatives right there. We've talked to nothing.

567
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 1: We've talked Paris, We've talked London because we played Jacksonville

568
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,440
Speaker 1: Currow that that's always a possibility as well.

569
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 2: Gibbe is badly, badly wanting to go back to London.

570
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 1: I would actually go into London this time. I went

571
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 1: in London a couple of times, great show, we had,

572
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 1: all kinds of stuff, could have we made our mark

573
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,120
Speaker 1: in that little town. I don't think I think that's

574
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:56,880
Speaker 1: why I have to go to London. I don't think

575
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:58,640
Speaker 1: I can go back to that small little time.

576
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 2: I'll say this, Nathan the Hoff, Joe Thomas and yours

577
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,919
Speaker 2: really on one night was that Thursday urged?

578
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:06,879
Speaker 1: Had the stream stopped running?

579
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 2: Yes, had one of our favorite meals ever in shortage?

580
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:18,720
Speaker 2: You should have come, just saying fair, just saying so, yeah,

581
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 2: there's that Browns away games obviously the three in the division,

582
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 2: plus the Bucks, the Giants, the Jaguars, the Jets, the Saints,

583
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,680
Speaker 2: and the Titans. So a chance to go to Nashville

584
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 2: before they close their building because in twenty twenty seven

585
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 2: the Titans are moving into a brand new building. And

586
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 2: the home games obviously the games in the division, plus

00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:49,640

00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 2: You are a diehard Duke fan.

608
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 1: I am a diehard Duke fan. Hold on, I was joking.

609
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 2: You're a diehard Duke fan.

610
00:29:56,520 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 1: I am. How uh growing up, my uncle was the

611
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 1: head of sports medicine there and they're training.

612
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,240

613
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 1: Yeah? Uh yeah, I just I think they're banged up,

614
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 1: and I don't I don't know if they've got the horses,

615
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 1: and I think the NCAA did them no favors by

616
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 1: putting them in the toughest region.

617
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 5: I feel like, oh, wow, crime your river after all

618
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:22,120

Speaker 1: No, not at all. Grant Hill went to my high school.

628

Speaker 2: I was very happy when Grant, as a true freshman,

629
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 2: helped Duke win an actual championship. He's on the cover

Speaker 2: of s I with the Alleube and that reach and

631
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,080

Speaker 1: fanboyed out and Grant Hill signed that s I cover.

638
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:23,000
