Have you seen a game played 60 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 2: down there? Have you been to a game there? No, 61 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 2: it was a high school game admittedly, but since they've 62 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:47,799 Speaker 2: done the renovations, it was a high school game down 63 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 2: there and pretty great. 64 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 3: I'm excited to watch a football game. I'm every seat 65 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 3: is great. 66 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 2: Small venue obviously what we're used to like, very intimate, 67 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 2: but you know, you're all on top of it, and 68 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 2: you're gonna get you know, like I mean, this isn't 69 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 2: false hope. Like, you're gonna get to see two young quarterbacks, 70 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 2: one of which is gonna have a chance to be 71 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 2: the long term backup solution to Deshaun Watson here and 72 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 2: potentially could develop in this offense under something else in 73 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,959 Speaker 2: this organization, perhaps an asset and a starter somewhere else 74 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 2: down the road. That would be the objective, whether it 75 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 2: be moder or dtr And on the other side, like 76 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:24,679 Speaker 2: Zach Wilson's gonna. 77 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 4: Play, Yeah, number two of Pimbers drag the draft he started. 78 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,839 Speaker 4: I mean he's like, we look at it and yeah, 79 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 4: from that standpoint, you're gonna get You're gonna get Zach Wilson. 80 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 4: You're gonna get Tim Boyle, who if people Browns fans 81 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 4: remember Tim Boyle TB twelve they called him was the 82 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 4: starting quarterback for the Detroit Lions in a game that 83 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 4: was played here at first energy and some not great 84 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 4: conditions that the Browns were able to come out on top. 85 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 4: So you're gonna get their two quarterbacks who will play 86 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 4: have both started games in the National Football League, and 87 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 4: maybe we'll see Chris Steveler, the third year man out 88 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 4: of South Dakota later on. But Wilson started second overall 89 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 4: pick Boyle his started games as well in his fifth 90 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 4: season in the league, and so their quarterbacks have more 91 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 4: game experience in ours. This will be the first time 92 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 4: you know Kellen mount I think has thrown two passes 93 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 4: for five yards or completed two passes for five yards 94 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 4: and back in as a rookie season with Minnesota and 95 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 4: some mop up duty. But this will be the most 96 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,039 Speaker 4: extensive action they've seen and you're going against and neither 97 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 4: one of them started a game. Obviously dtr is a 98 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,559 Speaker 4: rookie now. Both played a ton in college a ton yep. 99 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 4: But that'll be interesting to see. And I think that's 100 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 4: good for our defense, our young guys, because you're going 101 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 4: to be playing guys that whether they have you know, 102 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 4: in the case of Boyles had to bounce around. In 103 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 4: the case of you know, Zach Wilson, they said, okay, 104 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 4: going into year three, is the number two overall pick 105 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 4: not good enough? We're going to bring in Aaron Rodgers. 106 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 4: These are guys who have played NFL defenses before and 107 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 4: have had at least on some level some monck him 108 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 4: of success. 109 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:52,039 Speaker 3: Yeah. 110 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 2: And I you know, for me, preseason, whether we're in 111 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,559 Speaker 2: it or not, what I'm what I get excited about 112 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,599 Speaker 2: is show me the young guys. Yeah, you know, what 113 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 2: are the young guys look like? So from our vantage point, 114 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 2: you get the two quarterbacks we're talking about. You have 115 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 2: to see Cedric Tillman, who had a great catch yesterday 116 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: and practice sensational catchdown the sidelines. Yeah, so you're going 117 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 2: to get those type of things that you could say, hey, 118 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 2: well let's see how this looks. So's there's a big 119 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 2: value in that, and I think from a fan perspective, 120 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 2: there's big entertainment in that. 121 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, well I want to see too. You get Dorian 122 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 4: Thompson Robinson sometime in the second half. I'd like to 123 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 4: see him with Felton in the backfield, Ceda Tillman there 124 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 4: in the huddle, and you think about he played with 125 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 4: with Dimitric Felton at UCLA. He went to high school 126 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 4: with and played with Cedric Tillman, So that'll be some familiarity. 127 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 4: I think that'll be fun for all three of them 128 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 4: to get an opportunity to do that. Those are the 129 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 4: kind of little stories that are that are fun about 130 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 4: this game. I'm excited to see Luke Whippler and Dwan Jones, 131 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 4: the two Buckeye linemen that the Browns draft had, see 132 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 4: what they can do. And going back to Tilman in 133 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 4: one of the things I was going through getting ready here, 134 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 4: I knew that his dad had played in the NFL. 135 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 4: Did you know who his dad played? With in college. 136 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 3: Oklahoma. 137 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 4: No, Aaron mcinnair at al Cornstone. My dad was catching 138 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 4: pass from air McNair. Yeah, which is pretty cool. So yeah, 139 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 4: this is gonna be a This is gonna be a 140 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 4: fun one. I think that there are plenty of guys 141 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 4: on this Browns team that are really names, you know, 142 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 4: that are fighting. You know, Anthony Schwartz. It's kind of 143 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 4: now or never, right and and right now I'd say 144 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 4: he's a long shot, but you know, he goes out 145 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 4: and torches everybody in these games. Maybe you rethink things. 146 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 4: You know, David Bell I don't think is in any 147 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 4: type of jeopardy with his roster spot per se being 148 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 4: a third rounder last year, but you want to see 149 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 4: him go and look like the guy that was the 150 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 4: big ten receiver of the year, you know. I think 151 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 4: it's a for Demitric Felton and John Kelly. John Kelly's 152 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 4: been on our practice squad basically since twenty twenty. Feltons 153 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 4: was six round pick in twenty one. Those two guys 154 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 4: are trying to say, no, I can be that third 155 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 4: running back. You don't need to go outside to get 156 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 4: that third running back. And there's a running back on 157 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 4: the on the Jets, who if they do sign Dalvin 158 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 4: Cook in surprising that's taken a little bit longer. But 159 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 4: that Michael Carter, the young man out of North Carolina, 160 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 4: is somebody who could be released if they make that. 161 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 4: They drafted a Benaconda out of pit who I think 162 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 4: I like a lot. That guy's the stud. We'll see 163 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,159 Speaker 4: a lot of him in this game. But with Breess 164 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 4: Halls on of a night and then if they have, 165 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 4: you know, the draft pick right out, they're gonna cut 166 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,239 Speaker 4: a running back.

We take our 176 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 4: knowledge around the country. Obviously you're the big ten guy, 177 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 4: uh but yeah, sometimes you gotta just let people know, 178 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 4: you know what. 179 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 2: I like that packed time.

If there is 183 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 4: no twelve, that's it. Sometimes we're on the road, in 184 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 4: the hotels, that's the only thing it's on at like 185 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 4: eleven o'clock at night. 186 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 2: You know what, You're not gonna be able to watch 187 00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 2: it anymore because it doesn't exist. 188 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 3: Well for now it does, but not for much longer. 189 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 2: The best they could do was what amounts to about 190 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 2: a twenty million dollars a year deal Apple Plus only 191 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 2: with a subscription model. 192 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 3: So your conference is over. That's the end of it. 193 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 3: The guy the boarded board. 194 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 2: Meeting at the University at Arizona, which actually I didn't 195 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 2: realize this. The board, the Arizona board oversees both Arizona 196 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 2: and Arizona State. The quote coming out of that was 197 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 2: this is not a viable option for programs with options. 198 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 2: So sounds like both Arizonas could be Big twelve bound quickly, 199 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 2: you know it. 200 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 4: Look, the fact of the matter is Arizona bear down Zago. 201 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 4: The started of my great Zago at the original six 202 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 4: pack and then to the PAC ten and then to 203 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 4: the PAC twelve. My affinity has spent many, many decades. 204 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:45,719 Speaker 4: Big twelve is a good place for them because the 205 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 4: fact is it's a basketball school, good hoopspin, and it'll 206 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 4: be you know now, you'll be them at Kansas and Bay. 207 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 2: Oiler lots of Texas Tech play for national championship two 208 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 2: years ago. 209 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 3: Oklahoma State's been good. 210 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 4: You're gonna get years.

That's 224 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 4: what they are. 225 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 2: But the football drives the bus, and they would be 226 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 2: they would be well down the list on the on 227 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 2: the football side of things. 228 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 4: Well, unless you get those defections out of acc that 229 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 4: were rumored, then all of a sudden, that doesn't make sense. 230 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 4: SEC Big ten and Gig twelve just the third. 231 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:35,439 Speaker 2: The the stuff coming out of that, it doesn't make 232 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 2: sense because the money would have the money there those 233 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 2: people down there, like the guy with the Florida State 234 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 2: Board of Trustees who's making all these comments like he's 235 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 2: talking as if he has a Big ten or sec offer. Yeah, 236 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 2: and if he doesn't, then it doesn't make sense because 237 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 2: he has. It would be so stupefying from a Big 238 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 2: ten perspective. It would go against everything that they've talked 239 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 2: about for decades with expansion other than one football like 240 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 2: it would that's the one thing which Trump's all, yeah, 241 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 2: but they've always held back. I mean the reason they 242 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 2: have Maryland and Rutgers in those is because of the 243 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 2: other things sometimes having more power than the football side 244 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 2: of things. 245 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 4: I'm just saying Clemson in Florida State. 246 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 3: Oh, that'd be big boost.

Yes, 352 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 6: there's another stage to this that is going to have 353 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 6: to fall in place. So in football terms, I would 354 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 6: put it this way, it's halftime and I'm ahead. 355 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 3: God bless we love, bless you, buddy.

And it's important to really set 369 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 6: a goal for yourself. And this was a goal for me, 370 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 6: was to be okay, and really showing progress and to 371 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 6: be able to kind of get back to my life. 372 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 6: And I've been able to do that and it's been good, 373 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 6: and it's it's been a lot of work, and I've 374 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 6: got an amazing family.

He was out 392 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 4: here doing some interviews. As I said, he looks stout, 393 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 4: He looks good. So I'm pumped to get back in 394 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 4: there with you and hopefully we have a lot of 395 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 4: fun things to call and you know, talk about this year. Obviously, 396 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 4: the Hall of Fame Game is very different. We're not 397 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 4: going to see any of the starters. This is not 398 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 4: going to be Deshaun Watson against Aaron Rodgers. But you 399 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 4: know some young guys who have a chance maybe to 400 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 4: make an impact and make this roster. So what are 401 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 4: you kind of just looking for going into this one 402 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 4: from the Browns and then overall just kind of your 403 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 4: thoughts right now on this team as we get ready 404 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 4: for the twenty twenty three season. 405 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,719 Speaker 6: Well, it will be you know, magic being back up 406 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 6: in the booth with you and your ride down on 407 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 6: the sideline as Jason Gibbs and our whole broadcasting family. 408 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 6: That's going to be great. I will tell you this, 409 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,959 Speaker 6: before you know you talk about the football parts, I 410 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,879 Speaker 6: think Nathan and everybody that wasn't there in nineteen ninety 411 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 6: nine when the team came back and their first game 412 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 6: back was the Hall of Fame Game, I think the 413 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 6: first thing you're going to feel is an electricity. And 414 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 6: I know the game is held every year and different 415 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,880 Speaker 6: teams are there, but when you bring the Cleveland Browns 416 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 6: down to play in the Hall of Fame game, it 417 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 6: is really something and I will never forget in nineteen 418 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 6: ninety nine when those orange helmets came out of the 419 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 6: locker room and started to come down this mini hill 420 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,440 Speaker 6: onto the playing field, I have to tell you it 421 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 6: was just one of the most emotional times because so 422 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 6: many people, millions of people, did so much work to 423 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,440 Speaker 6: get the team back. So I think with the Joe 424 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,639 Speaker 6: Thomas part of the equation and the Browns being there, 425 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,159 Speaker 6: and the recognition earlier in the day coming up on 426 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 6: Thursday of the life of Jim Brown, I think you're 427 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,640 Speaker 6: going to feel an awful lot of emotion and electricity 428 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 6: that maybe isn't in the game year to year if 429 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 6: you just have the New Orleans Saints playing, you know, 430 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 6: the Miami Dolphins. So it's going to be very special. Now, 431 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,880 Speaker 6: as far as the football thing is concerned, some players, 432 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 6: hopefully more than one, is going to make a name 433 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:55,399 Speaker 6: for himself tomorrow night. It just always happens, and it 434 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,479 Speaker 6: might be an undrafted free agent that just really pops. 435 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 6: Josh Cripps had it happened in a preseason game that 436 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,879 Speaker 6: really put him on the map. Somebody's going to be 437 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 6: able to do it. Danthony Fell last year, you know, 438 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 6: the kid that was undrafted and came in and you know, 439 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 6: really faught his way through the waves of players on 440 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 6: the roster and all of a sudden he started to 441 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 6: make plays in games. And that's what you look for 442 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 6: tomorrow and night. Plus, when you see young quarterbacks come 443 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 6: out and get their first opportunity like Tim Kouch did 444 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 6: in nineteen ninety nine and Jorian Thompson Robinson will tomorrow, 445 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 6: that's a very special moment too, for him and for 446 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 6: everybody else. 447 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,919 Speaker 2: I've just struck by the full circle feeling of it 448 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 2: of ninety nine and that first time that you that 449 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 2: the Cleveland Browns had taken the football field after all 450 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:40,879 Speaker 2: they had been through and you were there and you 451 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 2: experienced the emotion of that, and then you think about 452 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 2: the full circle gym of Joe Thomas, the first modern 453 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 2: era brown or this incarnation of the Browns going into 454 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame. Like if you think about the 455 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,119 Speaker 2: things that have been best about this organization over a 456 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 2: twenty plus year period, you and Joe are at the 457 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 2: top of that list. Deekes listens, so probably Deek two. 458 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 2: I mean a little bit of love my man Zee 459 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 2: over here. But I mean like Joe has been the 460 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:07,920 Speaker 2: kind of the point of excellence through all of this. 461 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 2: And so to have a brown go in to see 462 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 2: Joe down there, and we all know what type of 463 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,719 Speaker 2: human he is. Boy that at you talk about electricity, 464 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 2: I think you're gonna get that in spades tomorrow. 465 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 6: Absolutely, he was such a perfect fit for us here 466 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 6: in Cleveland and for the football team and the organization 467 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,520 Speaker 6: and the position of left tackle. I mean, he was 468 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 6: just he was perfection, He really was, and I know 469 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 6: he strove for that every time he went out onto 470 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 6: the football field, and a lot of times it had 471 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 6: to be personal because the team was, you know, didn't 472 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 6: measure up to what his talent was at his particular crap. 473 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,639 Speaker 6: But I will tell you this, You know, he's a 474 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 6: very very special part of Cleveland because he really embraced 475 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 6: the town and the town embraced him. What a perfect 476 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 6: choice that was. If you could do that all the 477 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 6: time in the d if you could pick a guy 478 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 6: and then you take him number three overall in the 479 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 6: draft and you put him out at a position like 480 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:10,160 Speaker 6: left tackle, and then you come back eleven years later 481 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 6: and you say, wow, that works out really well. We'd 482 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 6: be at parades in February a lot because that's the 483 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 6: kind of player he was. And so I think a 484 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 6: lot of people are really excited about that. 485 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 7: And you're right. 486 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,159 Speaker 6: I mean, we haven't had a lot to crow about 487 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 6: in the new era of the of the Cleveland Browns, 488 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 6: who've been through a lot of different weaving and bobbing, 489 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,400 Speaker 6: but not with Joe Thomas. It was steady as you go, 490 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 6: straight ahead. Just a perfect, perfect player and a perfect 491 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 6: player in Cleveland. 492 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:43,159 Speaker 4: It's exactly right. And this is going to be a 493 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 4: celebration of him. And obviously you hope this football team 494 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,199 Speaker 4: goes out there and puts in a performance, you know, 495 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 4: befitting of a guy like the Hoff and you think 496 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 4: that you know, the Browns draft Dwan Jones, a guy 497 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 4: named Thanos who plays the tackle position, and this will 498 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 4: be his first opportunity to Brown's uniform. You just hope 499 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 4: that there it is, that something kind of there, And yeah, 500 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 4: I think this is going to be an incredible week 501 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:07,400 Speaker 4: for this organization and really kind of all the football 502 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,159 Speaker 4: eyes will be on the Cleveland Browns, and I think 503 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 4: it'll be fun for these young guys to know that 504 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 4: the whole eyes of the league and everybody around them 505 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 4: in this game. But when you think about this team, Jim, 506 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 4: and you think about what this year could be, kind 507 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 4: of where are you? Well, you know they were away 508 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,360 Speaker 4: in the Greenbrier. They've come back. I know you got 509 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 4: a chance to talk with coach Stefanski. But kind of 510 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 4: when you look at this roster on paper and you 511 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:31,640 Speaker 4: look at this coaching staff with the additions of Jim 512 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 4: Schwartz and above then Tron, it feels like it's all there. 513 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 4: What do you what do you? What do you make 514 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 4: of this team as we sit right here very early 515 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 4: in this training camp process. 516 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 6: Well, it looks really good and it really does. And 517 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 6: I think the adding of those two coordinators in those 518 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 6: areas are going to really help a great deal. I 519 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 6: think that defense is really talented, but it needs to 520 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 6: play better and it should play better. And I know 521 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 6: he coaches the heat, being Jim Schwartz, he coaches hard. 522 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 6: I think that United needs to be coached hard to 523 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 6: bring it out of them, because it's there, they just 524 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,159 Speaker 6: has to be brought out of them. Special teams to 525 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 6: say same way, if the special teams unit performs the 526 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 6: way Bubba Ventron performed himself as a player, we'll be 527 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 6: five because he was that great at it and was 528 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 6: really a decider in some moments in games when special 529 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 6: teams had to do that, and he was able to 530 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 6: do that as a player. And I know he's brought 531 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 6: that to his coaching career, so that is good too. 532 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 6: But you know, Nathan, as I was talking to you 533 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 6: earlier in the day, and I'll say it here, I 534 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 6: think that you take a look at that roster and 535 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 6: it's ready to win now. The thing is and this 536 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 6: is a big step I think for them, and it 537 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 6: has been a tough step for them. I think when 538 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 6: you go each and every Sunday, I think the game 539 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 6: is sitting there on the table for either team, the 540 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 6: Browns and whoever they're playing on that particular day, and 541 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 6: the Browns have got to learn to be the team 542 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 6: that makes the play and takes the game. At this 543 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,119 Speaker 6: point in the ballgame, I mean, it didn't matter or 544 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 6: last year, whether it was Jacoby Brissett or the last 545 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 6: six games with Deshaun Watson. If you really go through 546 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 6: those games, each one of them were sitting there on 547 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,879 Speaker 6: the table and they just too many times were not 548 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,320 Speaker 6: able to take the game away from the opposition. And 549 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 6: they're gonna have to learn how to do that. Now. 550 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 6: They've brought in players who have done that in other stops, 551 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 6: and maybe that's gonna help. But I think that's what 552 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 6: has to happen here. That's the wall they have to 553 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 6: break through. Once they do it, I think you know, 554 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 6: they'll take off because then their talent kicks in with 555 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 6: the confidence that hey, listen, we've been here before, we 556 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 6: now know how to do it, this is the way 557 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 6: to do it. And then you do it, and I 558 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 6: think that's where we are. 559 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 4: How helpful do you think or do you hope? I 560 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 4: think is maybe even a better word that you know. 561 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 4: You bring in Awan Thornhill, who's won two Super Bowls, 562 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 4: has only had a season end at either the AFC 563 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 4: Championship Game or the Super Bowl. You have brought in 564 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 4: Roddy McLoud who won a Super Bowl. Jim Schwartz. Jim 565 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 4: Schwartz won the Super Bowl obviously there with the Philadelphia Eagles. 566 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 4: In Obo Okuranquo, who won a Super Bowl with the Rams. 567 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 4: And so now you've got some guys, three of them 568 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 4: added to this defense. All of them will play meaningful 569 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 4: roles for this team who know what it takes to 570 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 4: win at the highest level. And I think that's that 571 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,959 Speaker 4: fine line, right, that's the difference those teams that are 572 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,679 Speaker 4: able to in those five plays a game, be on 573 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 4: the right side of three of them and win the 574 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 4: game ultimately. How helpful do you hope that will be? 575 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 4: And do you think that could be something that helps 576 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 4: this Brown seem be a team that's able to snatch 577 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 4: those victories off the table. 578 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, I really do. I think you're right, and I 579 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 6: think it is important, and I think it's important to 580 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 6: have those guys on the field at that moment that 581 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:42,119 Speaker 6: you and I are talking about, that moment when the 582 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 6: game is winnable. Okay, you know, the coaches can do 583 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,160 Speaker 6: everything they can possibly do, but they're on the sidelines. Okay, 584 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,120 Speaker 6: these guys are gonna be on the field. They're gonna 585 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 6: be in that huddle, they're gonna be facing that crowd 586 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 6: over in Pittsburgh when the place is going crazy, or 587 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 6: over in Baltimore, and they're gonna have to settle down 588 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 6: the other ten guys that are a lot along with them. 589 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:04,199 Speaker 6: And kind of pull them through it until everybody. 590 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 5: Is able to do this. 591 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 6: So I think it is really important. I harken back 592 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 6: to I thought it was important when the Browns a 593 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 6: long time ago brought Jamal Lewison at running back. He 594 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 6: was at the tail end of his career, but he 595 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 6: gave them a great year the year they went ten 596 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 6: and six, and I think he helped them at times 597 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,360 Speaker 6: because he had played in big games in Baltimore. Joe 598 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 6: Juravicius was a really good guy for guys like Brayln 599 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 6: Edwards and Kellen Winslow junior that they needed to grow 600 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 6: up because Joe had played on that great Tampa team 601 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 6: and it had been with the Giants before that. Those 602 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 6: are the kind of guys that really helped them on 603 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 6: those particular Browns teams in those dicey moments where young 604 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 6: players can say, you know, I don't know if we 605 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 6: can do this, and then too many times we say, well, 606 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 6: we didn't do it, and then we're reflecting back on 607 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 6: what went wrong. Suddenly you gotta have guys to get 608 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:57,199 Speaker 6: them to the point where this went right and we 609 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 6: can all do this now. 610 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 2: David, I'm interested if you have I'm gonna This happens 611 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 2: to me. It happened to me last night walking the 612 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,399 Speaker 2: dog in the neighborhood. It happens to me five or 613 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 2: six times a day. I'm sure it happens to Z 614 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,479 Speaker 2: all the time. I'm sure it happens to you. This 615 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,919 Speaker 2: is the way that the conversation goes. Guy comes up 616 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:14,920 Speaker 2: to me, how did the Browns look? I say, well, 617 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 2: they look great. I mean, they're they're pretty loaded. I 618 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 2: think they have the most talent they've had since the 619 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 2: late eighties. They go, oh yeah, but it's the same 620 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 2: old Browns or whatever. I'm like, So I finally had 621 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 2: a point where I'm like stopping them, like, listen, I can't. 622 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 2: I don't know what happened. You know exactly from five 623 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,679 Speaker 2: to sixteen. You lived through it, Nathan lived through a. 624 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 3: Lot of it. 625 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 2: What I can tell you, though, is you have to 626 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 2: accept that the talent on this roster is more than 627 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 2: any talent that has been here since nineteen eighty eight 628 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 2: or eighty nine. 629 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 3: Or it's been a long time. I think that's a 630 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 3: fair statement. 631 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 2: And it can also be true that this is the 632 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 2: toughest AFC we've ever seen. Yes, And so even if 633 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 2: you have it all, it might not be enough to 634 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,400 Speaker 2: go beat Kansas City in an AFC championship game. 635 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:57,199 Speaker 3: That's how hard it is. 636 00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 2: And I'm just curious, like, when that happens to you, 637 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 2: how do you describe that circumstance. How do you answer 638 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 2: that question? 639 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I kind of answer it the same way 640 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 6: you answer it. I mean, you know, I think that 641 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,920 Speaker 6: people feel that you're so close when you say, well, listen, 642 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 6: they're really good. They look great on paper, They've made 643 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 6: some great additions. Watson's going to be one thousand percent 644 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 6: probably better than he was in the six games last year. 645 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 6: Certainly understandable. You know, Nichubb is Nick Chubb, Jim Schwartz 646 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 6: is here. That defense is going to finally have some 647 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 6: real sharp teeth to it. You know. All of that 648 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 6: sounds good, and then there's a you know, you say that, 649 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 6: but I think a lot of people then because they've 650 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 6: been worn down, I think by the disappointment through the years. 651 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 6: I think then people think, well, you're so close to 652 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 6: the team. Of course you're going to say that, but 653 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 6: I you know, I think then they just have to 654 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 6: take you know the fact that really you're telling them 655 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 6: what you see and what you see is yes, your 656 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 6: closeness allows you to be around them a great deal. 657 00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 6: But it really does look good, and it does look 658 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 6: different that it has in the past. And they you know, 659 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 6: they just look better than they have and they look 660 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 6: more talented, and they look deeper. You know, there's a starter, 661 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 6: and there might be two other guys behind that starter 662 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 6: who could certainly go in and play if needed to. 663 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 6: And so I just think that you know, the proof 664 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 6: is seeing it. Everybody needs to see it. They need 665 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 6: to see it against Cincinnati on opening Day, and they 666 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 6: you know, the month of September is going to give 667 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 6: you a very very good view of how this is 668 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 6: going to go with those four games and those three 669 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 6: games being in the division. And so I think people 670 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 6: really do both want to get excited about it, but 671 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 6: I think they've been worn down a little bit by 672 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:43,719 Speaker 6: the team and the franchise not meeting expectations and the disappointment. 673 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 4: Of the Mayfield short era. 674 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 6: Obj things like that, that they're just saying, Okay, I'm 675 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 6: gonna just take a half step back. I'm ready to 676 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 6: get on the bandwagon, and we're ready to welcome them 677 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 6: to it. There's plenty of things on a board they 678 00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 6: have to see it play out. 679 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 4: And that's exactly what. Yeah, we know, that's kind of 680 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 4: all the time. That's what I say to people now, say, 681 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 4: it's all there. DeShawn looks great. He's so much more 682 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 4: comfortably talked about. They loaded up the defense. We've got 683 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 4: a pass rush, we got a great back end. We 684 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 4: got Jim Schwartz, we got Nick Chubb. We've got the 685 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 4: best offensive line in football. We've got you know, three 686 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 4: receivers now who you feel great about in Amari and 687 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 4: Elijah Bore and DPJ. You got the chief. You brought 688 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 4: an Akins, he brought in Goodwin and hopefully not on 689 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 4: what he's able to go. It's all there. This is 690 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 4: a team that's gonna be BA. It's binary do they 691 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 4: win or do they not? And to your guys, both 692 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 4: of your point, you know, I talked with wan Thornhill 693 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 4: while we were at the Greenbrier and he said, to me, 694 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 4: you no position for position, this is the most talented 695 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 4: team I've been on. He said, I haven't even told 696 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 4: the play. I haven't told the team that yet. But 697 00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 4: he goes, if you break it down by position by position, 698 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 4: this is the most talented team I've been on. They said, 699 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 4: obviously they had Pat Mahomes, but there's no reason why 700 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 4: this team can't be great. What's just insane about what's 701 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 4: going on right now is there are and we've said 702 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 4: it the numbers before, there are thirteen teams in the 703 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 4: AFC right now that believe fully that they're going to 704 00:30:58,040 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 4: the playoffs. And there are eight teams in the A 705 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 4: se alone right now that fully believes they have a 706 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 4: team that can win the Super Bowl. So it's going 707 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 4: to come down to the teams that do it. And 708 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 4: that's what this Browns team is going to be judged on. 709 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 4: Do they do it? Do they in those moments that 710 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 4: Utah eloquently described earlier? Do the Browns? Are they the 711 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 4: team that sees those moments that come through in the clutch, 712 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 4: get that momentum, that belief and then be able to 713 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 4: actually maximize their talent And if they can, this sky's 714 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 4: the limit for this team. There's nothing that this team 715 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 4: cannot accomplish. 716 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, Doug Deeakon tells a great story about 717 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 6: that magical cardiac kid year back in nineteen eighty and 718 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 6: the evolution of Brian's side at quarterback, and he said 719 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 6: it just got to a point did week in and 720 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 6: week out, they knew they were going to be up 721 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 6: against it in the fourth quarter. Whether they were at 722 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 6: the old Stadium or wherever they were that year, uplying 723 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 6: on the road, they knew they were going to be 724 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 6: in trouble in the fourth quarter. It was just that's 725 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 6: the way the script read. But they also knew that 726 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 6: he walked into that huddle and it was last drive 727 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 6: time and they needed a touchdown, and he would walk 728 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 6: into that huddle as cool as a cucumber, and they 729 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 6: were very cool along with him because they knew that 730 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 6: it was gonna be okay. And that's exactly what he 731 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 6: would say. You would walk in and he would say, 732 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 6: all right, listen, we gotta go down and score, which 733 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 6: we are going to do, and we'll do it this way. 734 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 6: And that's I think the step that the Browns hopefully 735 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 6: are right on the doorstep of being able to walk 736 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 6: through that door and be able to be like that. 737 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 6: And I think that's very, very important. 738 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 2: It is so great to talk to you, sir. We 739 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 2: can't wait, as he can't wait to work with you tomorrow. 740 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,320 Speaker 2: I can't wait to see you tomorrow.

Offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt Ryan. 761 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 5: I just took off right where he was when he 762 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 5: left the mini camp. Really just did a lot. 763 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:56,920 Speaker 8: Of green things there at the end of the spring 764 00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 8: and picked up right where he left off. So we 765 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 8: got a lot of good work there. 766 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 9: With Amari and Marquis being out for part of part 767 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 9: of of that that kind down there. What did you 768 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 9: see how some of the younger guys stepping up and 769 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 9: you know, what. 770 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 5: Were we how we think? Sure? I thought Elijah had 771 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:14,879 Speaker 5: an outstanding camp. 772 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:16,320 Speaker 8: He's a guy that can do a lot of things, 773 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 8: very skilled receiver inside outside, can do. 774 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:20,840 Speaker 5: Stuff out of the backfield. That was impressive to see 775 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 5: for a rookie. 776 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 8: I thought Cedric had a really good camp, coming in 777 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,560 Speaker 8: and learning the system, putting all the pieces together. Had 778 00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:29,919 Speaker 8: some mistakes, but really made some plays on the ball, 779 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 8: which is good to see. 780 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:31,400 Speaker 5: You know. 781 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 8: Dalen Baldwin's mister reliable. He's out there and you can 782 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 8: play him in multiple positions. So those young guys got 783 00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 8: a lot of good reps and did some good stuff. 784 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 7: How do you go about kind of filling that void 785 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 7: that Marquise was supposed to fill right that deep rough 786 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 7: I think his stretches the field. 787 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 8: Sure, well, we just got to find somebody else that 788 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 8: can come in and do it. You know, we have 789 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 8: able bodies on the on the on the roster right now. 790 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 8: You know, Schwartz, he's a guy that can take the 791 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 8: top off. Jalen Darden's a guy that can take the 792 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:55,799 Speaker 8: top off. Elijah when we need him to, can take 793 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 8: the top off. So we have bodies that that style 794 00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 8: of play. You know, hopefully we can get Marque's back 795 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 8: and everything's gonna be okay there. 796 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 3: But you look at full speed retzee drills that the defense. 797 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 8: Of course, yeah, absolutely, you know, and I told the 798 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:10,400 Speaker 8: guys this morning, it's hard. 799 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 5: It's hard down there. 800 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:13,480 Speaker 8: You get inside that five yard line, that eight yard line, 801 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 8: and it's it's a past drill, it's it's it's skeleton. 802 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 8: The situations. We had four point plays the other day. 803 00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 8: We're not gonna hand them all off from the eighth 804 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 8: to Nick Chubb and let him run in. So it 805 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 8: is hard that the space is smaller, you know, the 806 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:29,279 Speaker 8: the open receivers aren't as open. There's contested catches, there's 807 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:30,799 Speaker 8: high balls in the back of the end zone. 808 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 5: And it's a good challenge for us. 809 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 8: You know, we are gonna continue to you know, get 810 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 8: good at what we do exactly. And then when they 811 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 8: played great coverage it's hard. It's hard to win down 812 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 8: there in tight spaces. But I told the guys this 813 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 8: morning again, we're not game playing it against our defense. 814 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 5: We're not trying to change plays to win the win 815 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:46,359 Speaker 5: the drill. 816 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:48,239 Speaker 8: We're gonna run our plays and get really good at 817 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:50,360 Speaker 8: those and then remember, hey, we have running backs. We 818 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:51,800 Speaker 8: have things that we're gonna do down in there and 819 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 8: not just drop back and throw the ball every time 820 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 8: running absolutely, And I know you guys are. 821 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 7: Still a work in progress, but what do you like 822 00:35:58,400 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 7: about this offensive group right now? 823 00:35:59,760 --> 00:35:59,840 Speaker 1: What? 824 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:02,279 Speaker 5: Uh work is the first thing. 825 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 8: I know, we're work in progress, but those guys come 826 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,760 Speaker 8: out and they work every day. It's really been impressive. 827 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 8: We've had some really really good two spot walk throughs 828 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 8: in the afternoon periods where the young guys get to 829 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:14,920 Speaker 8: go over and call the same plays that the. 830 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:15,840 Speaker 5: The ones are on the other field. 831 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 8: You know, we've worked blitz, we've worked no huddle, QB runs, 832 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 8: We've done all kinds of stuff. I think just you 833 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 8: know what we've got accomplished in that short time of 834 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:24,399 Speaker 8: eight days. 835 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 5: I think we feel really good that it was very productive. 836 00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:28,879 Speaker 4: Anthony Schwartz had a tough year last year. 837 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 7: What is his attitude like? 838 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 5: Good? 839 00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,120 Speaker 8: You know he comes out and works when you know 840 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:34,920 Speaker 8: when he gets out there, he flies around and he 841 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:36,880 Speaker 8: definitely shows you the speed that you need. It's just 842 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:38,799 Speaker 8: you know, he's just got to make the place when 843 00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:39,839 Speaker 8: they come to him, and he will. 844 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,480 Speaker 7: With Elijah, obviously, you guys are using him all over 845 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 7: the place. What do you like best about him? What 846 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:46,760 Speaker 7: he's lined up in the backfield. 847 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 8: His ability to one to carry the ball and then 848 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:50,360 Speaker 8: run routes out of that backfield. May you know, if 849 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 8: they want to leave a linebacker in the game and 850 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 8: try to match up with that, and obviously the advantage 851 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 8: would go to him. But he does a lot of 852 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 8: good things out of the backfield. You know, we had 853 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,160 Speaker 8: uh Randall Cobb and Green Bay and he was in 854 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:02,880 Speaker 8: the backfield a lot as a ball carry, as a 855 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 8: bubble catcher. All the things you could do free release 856 00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:06,760 Speaker 8: of motion him out and create empties. 857 00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 5: So he has that versatility. We can hand him the 858 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 5: ball as well. 859 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 7: Do you think you need to hand it to him 860 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 7: like your defenses to respect that he might get the ball? 861 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:15,840 Speaker 5: I would think so. I think so. 862 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 9: It's number eighty players plus season in the spring. 863 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 5: Watkins yes, does he look like a player too. 864 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 8: Really impressive. Came in late and really picked up the offense. Uh, 865 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:29,760 Speaker 8: very few mental errors. Seems to have a good grasp 866 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,360 Speaker 8: of it, makes plays when they come to him, and 867 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:33,279 Speaker 8: he could He's another guy that could run. So I've 868 00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 8: been impressed with his ability to pick up the offense 869 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 8: as quickly as he has. 870 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:36,320 Speaker 10: You. 871 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 11: I'm sure it's like the most quarterbacks because montas great. 872 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:43,759 Speaker 11: But you know, I do see Deshaun doing so many 873 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 11: different games after practice, you know, doorkas just arm angles. 874 00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 8: And hand bass, foot work and. 875 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:50,280 Speaker 2: All that stuff. 876 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 11: Is he like way up there just to terms with 877 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:55,839 Speaker 11: grinding and looking extra and over. 878 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:58,279 Speaker 8: I saw the same thing you saw, you know, those 879 00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 8: are those are drills that he stays out late. I 880 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 8: think he was maybe one or two guys left on 881 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:03,879 Speaker 8: the field the other day. 882 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:06,280 Speaker 5: You know, that's that's really the guys. 883 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 8: That are great are the guys that are motivated to 884 00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:10,759 Speaker 8: work until you know they've they've finished the day. And 885 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,360 Speaker 8: his day didn't finish when practice was over. So you 886 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 8: want your leaders to set that example and work extra hard, 887 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 8: especially at that position. 888 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,560 Speaker 7: The opportunity to be knocking for Jerome Fod to be 889 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,640 Speaker 7: that number two back and behind him. Just what have 890 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:25,520 Speaker 7: you seen from him? And you know what dimension do 891 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:26,840 Speaker 7: you think he can rant an admiral? 892 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 8: Yeah, I see a young player that's really matured over 893 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 8: the off season and starting to come into his own 894 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 8: as far as his understanding of the system, especially in 895 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 8: the protection phase. He has ability also to come out 896 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 8: of the backfield to make plays in the past game, 897 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 8: and he has some really great feet and. 898 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,480 Speaker 5: Vision in the run game. So excited to see him 899 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:43,320 Speaker 5: as we move forward. 900 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:47,879 Speaker 8: Feel very comfortable with him as our backup right now, how. 901 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:50,359 Speaker 7: Would you talk about how do you look at it? 902 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 8: It seemed like a diminished value of running backs, you 903 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:55,720 Speaker 8: know when you like the Dalvin. 904 00:38:55,360 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 7: Could Kareem Zicco. Well, how do you see that diminished value? 905 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 8: That's not really in my area. I know we have 906 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 8: a good one and I'm happy that we do. You know, 907 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:08,200 Speaker 8: that's that's where that is. It's it seems to have 908 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 8: devalued over the you know, past ten years. But I 909 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:13,360 Speaker 8: guess I would say if you went into a season 910 00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 8: and it didn't have one of a running back, you'd 911 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 8: be in bad shape. 912 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,439 Speaker 5: So we're fortunate that we have a great one here. 913 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 7: I know Jordanaans hasn't practiced the last place, But what 914 00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 7: does he add to this? 915 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 8: You know, his strength obviously is in the past game 916 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 8: his ability to run vertically with speed and his ability 917 00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:31,240 Speaker 8: to make plays on the ball. His hands are strong, 918 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:33,880 Speaker 8: had a big catch over top of a defender the 919 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:34,279 Speaker 8: other day. 920 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:36,440 Speaker 5: Things like that, he runs really good route, strong hands. 921 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 9: Alex, Alex, We're probably gonna see a lot of Killen 922 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 9: and dt are on Thursday. How what have you seen 923 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 9: out of both of them in terms of their matuation, 924 00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 9: their growth?

You know, for for dtr just continue to grow. 930 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 8: Kellen's a little bit of a head as far as 931 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 8: mentally being in the system longer. But both those guys, 932 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 8: they go out there, they they they're exceptional with their footwork, 933 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 8: their timing and their. 934 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 5: Ability to get through progression. 935 00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:15,360 Speaker 8: So excited to see that live and then add the 936 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 8: element of them using their legs as well. 937 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:19,879 Speaker 5: I think it's gonna be a fun night to ask you. 938 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 11: About Sean using his legs. What is your philosophy in 939 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,400 Speaker 11: terms of how much you can run your destrictive balance 940 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,919 Speaker 11: between keeping you safe and letting him use that talent 941 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 11: that he does. 942 00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 6: How do you vote? 943 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 8: It's a natural thing for him, you know, when he 944 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:35,759 Speaker 8: feels that he goes. I think that's something that that's 945 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:39,319 Speaker 8: that's fine with us. Always encouraging him to continue through 946 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:42,239 Speaker 8: the progression, don't skip a step, and then if they're 947 00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:43,759 Speaker 8: you get to the last part of that progression and 948 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,399 Speaker 8: there's nothing there, then take off. So continue to coach 949 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 8: through the progression and then allowing him to be be 950 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 8: special in them when he does. 951 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:52,560 Speaker 5: Escape out How to feel by any of you guys 952 00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:58,239 Speaker 5: at all?

I can't say enough 955 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:06,239 Speaker 8: about James Hudson. He's a guy now in year three 956 00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 8: that's really figured it out and really matured, is becoming 957 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:10,880 Speaker 8: a really good pro And then Weakley on the other 958 00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:12,800 Speaker 8: side's done a really nice job as well. So I 959 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 8: like our depth there.

It's one that you don't think about 978 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:05,160 Speaker 2: that much unless you're just around it a lot. And 979 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 2: obviously you noticed it, but you had a whole week 980 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:09,400 Speaker 2: more training camp than I did. One thing that jumped 981 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:13,360 Speaker 2: out to me is you're all running the same stuff. 982 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 2: You know, last year it was really two offenses that 983 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,279 Speaker 2: you had to create and now. And by the way, 984 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,959 Speaker 2: Jacobysett was awesome. He was an awesome human and awesome leader. 985 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:28,319 Speaker 2: He played great, But the offense then was different than 986 00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:30,759 Speaker 2: what you would have done had you had Watson the 987 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 2: whole time. Obviously different skill set, and now they're all 988 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,520 Speaker 2: kind of mirrors of what Watson is. 989 00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:39,919 Speaker 4: And the hard part too, was you mentioned Jacoby played 990 00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:41,799 Speaker 4: great and was a heck of a leader, and so 991 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:45,799 Speaker 4: Deshaun Watson, you know, as the star quarterback, is the 992 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:47,200 Speaker 4: leader of the team, but he had to take a 993 00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 4: back seat to Jacoby in because it was Jacoby's team 994 00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:54,880 Speaker 4: for eleven games. And this year everything is all moving 995 00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:59,520 Speaker 4: in one direction, offensively, leadership wise, all of it. And 996 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:01,960 Speaker 4: I think that's why you're seeing, you know, an offense 997 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,920 Speaker 4: that is going to be better this year. I think 998 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 4: you're really going to see that. You know, when Deshaun 999 00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:09,319 Speaker 4: Watson takes the feel, as Jim Donovan said, you know, 1000 00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:11,279 Speaker 4: it'll be a thousand perspective. Yes, he is going to 1001 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:13,879 Speaker 4: be significantly better and look like the three time Pro 1002 00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 4: bowler who once led the NFL in passing. And when 1003 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:18,359 Speaker 4: you pair that with this defense. That's why you can 1004 00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 4: get excited about this football team. But again, it's going 1005 00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 4: to come down to them going out there and do 1006 00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:26,600 Speaker 4: and doing it and being what they are on paper. 1007 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:28,399 Speaker 4: As Jim Schwartz said, and I love it when he said, 1008 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 4: you know, we know we've made it. When the hole 1009 00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:31,879 Speaker 4: is greater than the sum of the parts. That's when 1010 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 4: you've got a football team that can do something. And 1011 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 4: that's what the Browns. That's the goal for this year. 1012 00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:38,839 Speaker 4: That's what this is all about. All of this work 1013 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,680 Speaker 4: that's being put in brick by brick by brick is 1014 00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:44,880 Speaker 4: to that end, and certainly we all hope that's how 1015 00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:47,800 Speaker 4: it ultimately pans out right for this football team. 1016 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:51,879 Speaker 2: I also think that, like it's two separate conversations, there 1017 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 2: is a conversation that can be had now and I 1018 00:43:56,280 --> 00:43:59,160 Speaker 2: encourage you as fans to have it of being excited 1019 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 2: about Elijah and being excited about what's happening in the 1020 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 2: second area, what's happening in the front side of this defense, 1021 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:07,799 Speaker 2: what's happening in camp. With the catch that Tillman had 1022 00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:10,120 Speaker 2: yesterday that happened right in front of us, With the 1023 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:11,360 Speaker 2: way that Watson looks. 1024 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:11,360 Speaker 5: All of that. 1025 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 2: You can be excited about all of those things. And 1026 00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:18,759 Speaker 2: that's one fun plane of conversation. On another one that's 1027 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,359 Speaker 2: playing out horizontally along with it, parallel along with it, 1028 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:25,040 Speaker 2: is that one that you just mentioned, which is, we 1029 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:27,319 Speaker 2: know it has to happen in the regular season, but 1030 00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:28,360 Speaker 2: you can have fun. 1031 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:29,920 Speaker 3: Along that walk that path. 1032 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:32,719 Speaker 2: You know, everything doesn't have to be, well, what are 1033 00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:35,120 Speaker 2: they gonna do against Cincinnati? We all know that. Everything 1034 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:37,319 Speaker 2: in the building knows that. Bring the NFL knows that 1035 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 2: what do you do against Cincinnati? What do you do 1036 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 2: against Pittsburgh? You got Tennessee and Baltimore to start first four? 1037 00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 3: All of that. 1038 00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 2: Last year we said, oh you got it, first six. 1039 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 2: What's the record got to be? We'll do all that 1040 00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:49,920 Speaker 2: stuff again. All of that stuff is the heavy stuff. 1041 00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:53,360 Speaker 2: But in week two of full camp, like, you can't 1042 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:54,360 Speaker 2: have these little victories. 1043 00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:56,080 Speaker 3: And by the way, just because Elijah. 1044 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:58,440 Speaker 2: Moore is great and he's been great, that does necessarily 1045 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 2: mean that he's gonna he's gonna be a fifth dard receiver. 1046 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:02,799 Speaker 2: He's not gonna be that's not in the cards. But 1047 00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:05,200 Speaker 2: he's just something we haven't had before around here in 1048 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:08,040 Speaker 2: a while. So it's okay to be excited about that, 1049 00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 2: and also understand that doesn't mean we're giving him a 1050 00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 2: gold jacket. 1051 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 4: Right, And I think that's very fair. And you know, 1052 00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 4: we've seen in training camps before where guys have come 1053 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:18,360 Speaker 4: in and you know, it look like, for example, Austin 1054 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 4: Hooper's first year, that Austin Hooper was gonna catch a 1055 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:24,560 Speaker 4: thousand balls and score twenty touchdowns and then that never 1056 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 4: manifested itself in the regular season. But I think this 1057 00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:28,719 Speaker 4: time you have a team that is going to put 1058 00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 4: the ball in the air a lot more. And yes, 1059 00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:32,880 Speaker 4: Elijah has looked great, and there's so many easy what 1060 00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:36,200 Speaker 4: I would call long layups or long handoff ways to 1061 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:38,879 Speaker 4: get the football into his hands. And so you get 1062 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:40,560 Speaker 4: him the ball in his hands, get him in space, 1063 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:43,200 Speaker 4: give Hi an opportunity to make plays. But you got Donovan, 1064 00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:47,360 Speaker 4: you got Amari, you got David Ajoku. You know, I 1065 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:49,640 Speaker 4: don't think people will realize or maybe it feels like 1066 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 4: kind of have forgotten, Like Amari Cooper had seventy eight catches, 1067 00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:55,359 Speaker 4: one hundred and sixty yards and nine touchdowns last year, 1068 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:57,520 Speaker 4: average fifteen yards a catch, which was the second highest 1069 00:45:57,560 --> 00:45:59,840 Speaker 4: of his career. The nine touchdowns were the highest of 1070 00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:03,120 Speaker 4: his career. Like, he's gonna get a ton of targets. 1071 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:06,040 Speaker 4: DPJ was over eight hundred yards last year. He's only 1072 00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:08,160 Speaker 4: gotten better every year. He's gonna get a lot of targets. 1073 00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:10,319 Speaker 4: The Chief last year had a career high fifty eight 1074 00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:12,000 Speaker 4: catches six hundred and twenty yards. That was the second 1075 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 4: most of his career. And then now you add and 1076 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:17,839 Speaker 4: really it was a three person receiving corps. Now you 1077 00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:19,719 Speaker 4: add in that fourth guy lines more. Now you add 1078 00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:22,640 Speaker 4: in you know, hopefully Marquis Goodwin, who's gonna give you, you know, 1079 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:24,960 Speaker 4: probably three hundred to four hundred yards, But do it 1080 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,400 Speaker 4: at fifteen plus yards a catch, catch, a couple of cutchdowns, 1081 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:30,560 Speaker 4: create space for everybody, you know. Do I think Watson's 1082 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:32,279 Speaker 4: gonna throw for the forty eight hundred yards that he 1083 00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:33,920 Speaker 4: did when he led the league in passing playing in 1084 00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:36,440 Speaker 4: a dome on a team that was behind a lot. No, 1085 00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:41,640 Speaker 4: But should he go over four thousand yards this year? Absolutely? Yeah, 1086 00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 4: And so there will be there's stuff out there for 1087 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:46,440 Speaker 4: people to go get. But we've got I think a 1088 00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:48,160 Speaker 4: lot of miles defeat and I think what you're gonna 1089 00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,480 Speaker 4: see as a team that on a week to week basis, 1090 00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:54,560 Speaker 4: you're gonna be able to exploit whatever is left over 1091 00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:56,799 Speaker 4: from what the opponent's trying to take away because we're 1092 00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 4: finally an offense where you just can't take it all away. 1093 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I do think because you were going as 1094 00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:03,399 Speaker 2: you were going through that, I was just gonna say, 1095 00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:07,960 Speaker 2: you know, Nick Chubb, Amari, DPJ Miles, there were these 1096 00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 2: remarkable individual seasons last year that happened, but it was 1097 00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:15,560 Speaker 2: all done under the cloud of everything off the field, 1098 00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:17,719 Speaker 2: and so you never it was kind of like, can 1099 00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:19,920 Speaker 2: we just get through this, Like we were excited for 1100 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,319 Speaker 2: the last six games for Deshaun and then you know, 1101 00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:23,840 Speaker 2: there's a little bit of rust to it, and so 1102 00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:26,080 Speaker 2: at that point you're just like, let's just get to 1103 00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:28,560 Speaker 2: twenty twenty three.

We actually played. 1152 00:49:41,560 --> 00:49:42,320 Speaker 5: I was in New England. 1153 00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:45,399 Speaker 10: We played at Cleveland or I'm sorry, at Cincinnati, and 1154 00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:48,160 Speaker 10: you know I didn't play at all in the first half. 1155 00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:50,760 Speaker 10: The first play of the second half, on the kickoff, 1156 00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:52,440 Speaker 10: I come down make a tackle, so I'm like all 1157 00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:55,759 Speaker 10: juiced up. The second play I get in is at 1158 00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:59,640 Speaker 10: a punt play. I was playing gunner. I illegally aligned 1159 00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:02,520 Speaker 10: on the line of scrimmage. I released the wrong way 1160 00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 10: and I got hemmed up pretty bad, so it was 1161 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,680 Speaker 10: not a good rep. So extremely hot, extremely low, and. 1162 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:09,880 Speaker 12: Then the rest of the game was okay. 1163 00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:12,319 Speaker 4: So what do you tell these guys, Because I think 1164 00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 4: there's something unique about for you being in the position 1165 00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:16,960 Speaker 4: you are, the fact you were able to stay in 1166 00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:20,040 Speaker 4: this league for as long as you did doing special teams, 1167 00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:21,719 Speaker 4: knowing that there are gonna be a lot of guys 1168 00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:24,960 Speaker 4: playing for you, that these special teams performances in these 1169 00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:27,759 Speaker 4: four preseason games could be the difference between being guy 1170 00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:29,759 Speaker 4: fifty one, fifty two to fifty three on the roster, 1171 00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:31,960 Speaker 4: being on the practice squad, or maybe not even being 1172 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:32,799 Speaker 4: in the league at all. 1173 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:35,640 Speaker 10: Yeah, And I would say, especially with like this first game, 1174 00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:38,200 Speaker 10: these guys are going to be playing a lot of reps, 1175 00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:41,000 Speaker 10: both on defense, right to special teams, offense right to 1176 00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:43,840 Speaker 10: special teams. One of the biggest things I feel like 1177 00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,920 Speaker 10: is you have to focus. You have to really focus 1178 00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:51,640 Speaker 10: on your fundamentals, your footwork, and really lock in because 1179 00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:57,000 Speaker 10: you're gonna be physically tired, which creates mental fatigue. Like 1180 00:50:57,080 --> 00:50:58,800 Speaker 10: you have to lock in and be focused. Had that 1181 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:00,839 Speaker 10: discussion on those guys today. 1182 00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 4: And for most of the guys. I'm sure they have 1183 00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:05,160 Speaker 4: some experience, but for some of the guys in there, 1184 00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:07,600 Speaker 4: this is their first time probably playing Special teams right. 1185 00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:09,920 Speaker 12: It is foreign to everyone. 1186 00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 10: I mean, the young players have never experienced anything like 1187 00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:17,080 Speaker 10: the NFL kicking game. It's completely different than the college game. 1188 00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:20,120 Speaker 10: So the more reps so we can get these guys 1189 00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:24,320 Speaker 10: today in practice, we're gonna have a it'll be pretty 1190 00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:28,040 Speaker 10: much a live period on both kickoff return, kickoff, kickoff return, 1191 00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:30,400 Speaker 10: pump up return. The more reps we can get these 1192 00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:32,960 Speaker 10: guys where they're seeing it fast, the better. 1193 00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:35,759 Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, speaking of seeing it fast, I'll take us 1194 00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:37,800 Speaker 4: back to the Greenbrier. The first day in pads was 1195 00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:40,319 Speaker 4: a pad acclamation for everybody but the Special Teams unit, 1196 00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:42,319 Speaker 4: because you guys had some of those one on one 1197 00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:44,239 Speaker 4: drills that I think were the most exciting thing we 1198 00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:47,360 Speaker 4: saw out there, perhaps even all week. When you see 1199 00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:49,359 Speaker 4: the hunger your guys have. And I'll go a couple 1200 00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:51,000 Speaker 4: of young guys that sit out to me. Dea body 1201 00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:53,560 Speaker 4: stood out to me, and then Martin number sixty nine 1202 00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:56,880 Speaker 4: was absolutely just trucking people. When you see guys willing 1203 00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:59,319 Speaker 4: to put their bodies on the line, bring that physicality, 1204 00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:01,720 Speaker 4: bring that pass. How fired up does that get you? 1205 00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:04,160 Speaker 10: You got I'm getting like chills with you talking throat 1206 00:52:04,239 --> 00:52:06,600 Speaker 10: because the drill was good and we got a lot 1207 00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:12,920 Speaker 10: accomplished in that drill. You can see aggressiveness, physicality, you know, technique, footwork, 1208 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 10: you know understand how we're you know, using our blocking leverage. 1209 00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:18,759 Speaker 10: So it was good to have that drill. We're gonna 1210 00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:20,520 Speaker 10: do a lot of that stuff, half line stuff when 1211 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:22,719 Speaker 10: we go into punt in our protection stuff to make 1212 00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:23,359 Speaker 10: sure guys are. 1213 00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:25,960 Speaker 5: Protecting the right way. Yeah, it was. 1214 00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:26,440 Speaker 7: It was good. 1215 00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:28,719 Speaker 10: And those guys are all and everyone's working extremely hard 1216 00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:30,880 Speaker 10: to try to get gain every you know, knowledge for 1217 00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:33,759 Speaker 10: the techniques and schemes we're moving into. 1218 00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:36,000 Speaker 4: When you have a guy like Jordan Kanashik, who you've 1219 00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:38,520 Speaker 4: already talked about, is just such a professional at what 1220 00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:41,120 Speaker 4: he does. When you can see him in an undrafted 1221 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,520 Speaker 4: free agent, like my mood to your body, go at 1222 00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:45,920 Speaker 4: it like that, have a back and forth both getting 1223 00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:48,400 Speaker 4: great reps getting great work. Does that ad tell you 1224 00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:50,080 Speaker 4: a little bit about the young fellow, but also be 1225 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:53,200 Speaker 4: to see that the season vet is he's taking nothing 1226 00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:55,680 Speaker 4: for granted at all, going out there and being a 1227 00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:58,160 Speaker 4: great example I think for everybody else. Yeah, I think. 1228 00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:02,000 Speaker 10: I mean, Jordan just does a great job of you know, understanding. 1229 00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:06,120 Speaker 10: First off, he understands that he's his role, right, he 1230 00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:09,719 Speaker 10: understands that every rep is critical, and he's a true professional. 1231 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:11,680 Speaker 10: You know, he's going to go out execute as best 1232 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:13,560 Speaker 10: he can and he's going to come back and give 1233 00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 10: the guy. He's going against the same amount of work 1234 00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:18,640 Speaker 10: that the guy's given him and coverage. So you know, 1235 00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:21,280 Speaker 10: really excited to work with him. 1236 00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:23,120 Speaker 5: So excited for it. 1237 00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:25,120 Speaker 4: I know you are excited, all right, talk a little 1238 00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:27,759 Speaker 4: bit about the kicking game that gets people excited. Kade York. 1239 00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:30,000 Speaker 4: What have you seen from him? Obviously, just a tremendous 1240 00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:30,800 Speaker 4: natural talent. 1241 00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:34,080 Speaker 10: The thing that I've been happy with, you know, both 1242 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:36,640 Speaker 10: in the both in springing to this point in the 1243 00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:39,520 Speaker 10: after the first ten days or so, the consistency has 1244 00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:42,720 Speaker 10: been really good. You know, not a lot of variation 1245 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:46,839 Speaker 10: in his mechanics. He's keeping things simple, So that's been 1246 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:49,440 Speaker 10: a that's been a big positive. The operation has been 1247 00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:53,320 Speaker 10: consistent and that obviously makes it easier on the kicker. 1248 00:53:53,600 --> 00:53:55,799 Speaker 10: So those those other two guys have done a really 1249 00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:59,400 Speaker 10: really nice job. Uh, you know, making it easy for him. 1250 00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:02,600 Speaker 4: When you have that battery and that consistency, you know 1251 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:04,759 Speaker 4: with Charlie and then obviously Court. We know Joe was here, 1252 00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:06,600 Speaker 4: but Court had a very nice year for us last year. 1253 00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:09,160 Speaker 4: It's at the all time franchise record and punt average 1254 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:10,759 Speaker 4: over forty eight yards of punt. But when you have 1255 00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:13,920 Speaker 4: that consistency, how helpful is that? I would imagine swapping 1256 00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:16,840 Speaker 4: the long snappers or swapping holders. That would affect a 1257 00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:18,840 Speaker 4: kicker year in and year out for sure. 1258 00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:21,560 Speaker 10: And you know we're getting we're getting a lot of 1259 00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:23,319 Speaker 10: work and we want to we want to make that 1260 00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:26,719 Speaker 10: operation as like you said, we want to make that 1261 00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:28,640 Speaker 10: we want that thing to be as consistent as it 1262 00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:31,920 Speaker 10: can be with as little variation as possible, and that's 1263 00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 10: going to help us in the in the end. 1264 00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:36,680 Speaker 4: As a longtime Special Teams veteran, where you always impressed, 1265 00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:38,840 Speaker 4: So I'm impressed. Maybe for you, you're like, yeah, whatever, 1266 00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:41,959 Speaker 4: at the ability of a long snapper to not only 1267 00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:44,759 Speaker 4: snap the ball accurately, but to get it so they 1268 00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:47,160 Speaker 4: can get like basically the lace is exactly where they 1269 00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:49,080 Speaker 4: want it eight yards back. Because to me that just 1270 00:54:49,120 --> 00:54:49,840 Speaker 4: seems crazy. 1271 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:54,239 Speaker 10: It's it's time on task, it's reps, it's you know, 1272 00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:57,279 Speaker 10: there's a lot of detail that's involved with that, you know, 1273 00:54:57,600 --> 00:55:01,400 Speaker 10: quarter ro tap, like there's terminol that we use, and 1274 00:55:01,480 --> 00:55:05,080 Speaker 10: for him to be able to have done it so 1275 00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:08,840 Speaker 10: long and do it so well is impressive in itself. 1276 00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:12,080 Speaker 10: And then I mean when you talk about a snapper 1277 00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:15,360 Speaker 10: and the responsibilities, whenever you're talking about the punt, you 1278 00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:17,200 Speaker 10: know you're not only are you throwing the ball back, 1279 00:55:17,239 --> 00:55:19,120 Speaker 10: but you have to protect and then you have to cover. 1280 00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:22,520 Speaker 10: So it's not an easy position. It's definitely, you know, 1281 00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:25,520 Speaker 10: an underappreciated, you know spot on the roster. 1282 00:55:25,560 --> 00:55:28,280 Speaker 4: I would say, how excited do you see actual returns? 1283 00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:30,360 Speaker 4: Because in camp, like you catch it, you take your 1284 00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:32,320 Speaker 4: few first few steps, they kind of run through and 1285 00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:33,560 Speaker 4: then that's it. But now you have a chance to 1286 00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:36,240 Speaker 4: actually see some returns. How you're feeling about the return 1287 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:37,759 Speaker 4: game And you know, I don't know if we'll see 1288 00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:40,360 Speaker 4: Jaquim yet, but when you are get a chance to 1289 00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:41,680 Speaker 4: work with a guy like that who has been an 1290 00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:43,520 Speaker 4: All Pro, been a pro bowler, you know, how excited 1291 00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:45,000 Speaker 4: do you see this return game actually go? 1292 00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:47,560 Speaker 10: We're gonna have You're going to see a lot of 1293 00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:51,319 Speaker 10: young players this week, and we're excited about them. We're 1294 00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:53,839 Speaker 10: excited about the guys that are going to be able 1295 00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:55,680 Speaker 10: to block for them, and hopefully we can, you know, 1296 00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:59,520 Speaker 10: make some plays. The big emphasis in this game is 1297 00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:02,080 Speaker 10: play with good fundamentals and technique. 1298 00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:04,879 Speaker 5: Don't make it too don't make it too complicated. It's 1299 00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:05,280 Speaker 5: a simple. 1300 00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:10,520 Speaker 10: It's an extremely simple game plan, and play smart and discipline, 1301 00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:14,280 Speaker 10: like we don't want to have bad football is bad technique, 1302 00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:15,320 Speaker 10: which creates penalties. 1303 00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 5: We don't want to have any penalties. 1304 00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:18,880 Speaker 10: So that's a big emphasis for us this week, and 1305 00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:21,520 Speaker 10: I'll hit that the next two days before we play. 1306 00:56:21,920 --> 00:56:24,360 Speaker 4: Given that we have that extra preseason game, more reps 1307 00:56:24,360 --> 00:56:27,400 Speaker 4: for special teams obviously, Are you going to try anything 1308 00:56:27,440 --> 00:56:29,680 Speaker 4: out with some of the rule changes and kind of 1309 00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:31,239 Speaker 4: do some experimenting here? 1310 00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:37,640 Speaker 10: I would say to be determined. I don't feel like 1311 00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:40,680 Speaker 10: in this first game you're gonna see much of that. 1312 00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:43,439 Speaker 5: I don't. I want. 1313 00:56:43,680 --> 00:56:45,359 Speaker 10: What I want to see right now is I want 1314 00:56:45,400 --> 00:56:49,160 Speaker 10: to see the young players that haven't had in game 1315 00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:52,440 Speaker 10: experience get that experience. I want to make sure that 1316 00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:56,480 Speaker 10: we feel good about the fundamentals of block. I want 1317 00:56:56,520 --> 00:57:02,840 Speaker 10: to evaluate blocking, covering, you know, leverage, all those things, 1318 00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:04,840 Speaker 10: and I feel like if you're playing the game the 1319 00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:08,319 Speaker 10: right way, you can evaluate those things. I'm not trying 1320 00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:09,879 Speaker 10: to get gimmicky in a preseason game. 1321 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:13,120 Speaker 4: So how do you feel like things are right now 1322 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:15,400 Speaker 4: coming out of that week at the Greenbrier? How happy 1323 00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:18,480 Speaker 4: or or not happy are you with the state of 1324 00:57:18,520 --> 00:57:19,040 Speaker 4: your unit. 1325 00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:22,200 Speaker 10: I thought it was a great spot to work. I 1326 00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:24,560 Speaker 10: think we got a lot done, not only as a 1327 00:57:24,560 --> 00:57:26,280 Speaker 10: special teams group, but as a team. I feel like 1328 00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:29,400 Speaker 10: our team became closer in that in that setting because 1329 00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:32,960 Speaker 10: of how Kevin had it set up. As far as 1330 00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:36,760 Speaker 10: our team in the kicking game specifically, I feel I 1331 00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:39,120 Speaker 10: feel pretty good. I mean, everyone is trying to do 1332 00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:42,520 Speaker 10: the right thing. Everyone's trying to apply the corrections to 1333 00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:45,120 Speaker 10: the next rep, to the next practice. We haven't had 1334 00:57:45,120 --> 00:57:47,200 Speaker 10: a lot of repeat mistakes, which has been good in 1335 00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:50,600 Speaker 10: the first you know, handful of practices, and that's going 1336 00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:52,560 Speaker 10: to be the thing trending forward. It's like, how to 1337 00:57:52,600 --> 00:57:54,560 Speaker 10: talk with our players today. It's like, we need to 1338 00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:56,640 Speaker 10: we had a good we had a good week and 1339 00:57:56,680 --> 00:57:59,400 Speaker 10: a half, but it's not good enough. So we need 1340 00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:03,320 Speaker 10: to lock in and focus and understand what we need 1341 00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:05,760 Speaker 10: to do to win each trip, so that's gonna be 1342 00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:06,800 Speaker 10: the focus moving forward. 1343 00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:08,720 Speaker 4: I love I can't wait to see you out there 1344 00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:11,280 Speaker 4: coaching your first game.

As we go around the league, 1358 00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:13,960 Speaker 2: the Rams with a big blow here, Cooper Cup underwinning 1359 00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:17,080 Speaker 2: MRI and his hamstring team says he could potentially be 1360 00:59:17,120 --> 00:59:20,280 Speaker 2: back in a few weeks on that. So we've had Cup, 1361 00:59:20,360 --> 00:59:24,080 Speaker 2: We've had Burrow. I think the Rams are one of 1362 00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:25,840 Speaker 2: the greatest. I don't under I don't know what's going 1363 00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:29,280 Speaker 2: on operations. 1364 00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:30,200 Speaker 4: In terms of what they're trying to comp don't know 1365 00:59:30,240 --> 00:59:32,640 Speaker 4: what they're trying to do. Teams wanted to trade for Stafford? 1366 00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:35,280 Speaker 4: Why they didn't want to trade for him? It sounds like, look, 1367 00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:36,880 Speaker 4: Cooper cup is still going to be fine. Maybe it 1368 00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:40,160 Speaker 4: depresses this fantasy value a little bit. And I think 1369 00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:43,280 Speaker 4: that you're happy about that. I think most people feel 1370 00:59:43,280 --> 00:59:45,200 Speaker 4: like he'll be back for Week one and if not 1371 00:59:45,280 --> 00:59:47,439 Speaker 4: soon thereafter. The Rams are obviously going to be very 1372 00:59:48,320 --> 00:59:52,000 Speaker 4: I think middling. They're not going to be a great 1373 00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:54,400 Speaker 4: football team. But I think there's no rush on Like, 1374 00:59:54,680 --> 00:59:56,200 Speaker 4: they're not going to rush him back. I think they 1375 00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:58,640 Speaker 4: will be judicious with that point. 1376 00:59:58,640 --> 00:59:59,120 Speaker 3: Think about. 1377 00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:04,760 Speaker 2: I mean, they are clearly third in that division, right, Yeah, 1378 01:00:04,760 --> 01:00:08,000 Speaker 2: but they're definitely ahead of fourth in that division. Yeah, 1379 01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:10,640 Speaker 2: because cars go at the bottom. 1380 01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:11,080 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1381 01:00:11,680 --> 01:00:13,800 Speaker 4: I Mean my guess is McVeigh feels like this year 1382 01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:17,120 Speaker 4: in the NFC, if we can just hang around and 1383 01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:19,480 Speaker 4: be nine and eight, maybe we make the playoffs. 1384 01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:24,280 Speaker 2: He's saying, healthy Stafford, right, healthy Stafford, And why can't I. 1385 01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:27,440 Speaker 3: Go ten and seven? Nine and eight? That seems like 1386 01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:28,160 Speaker 3: a tall order to me. 1387 01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:30,880 Speaker 2: But then you start going around the NFC the as 1388 01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:33,120 Speaker 2: I don't I don't know their schedule, the RAMS schedule 1389 01:00:33,120 --> 01:00:36,560 Speaker 2: top to bottom, just the conference in the NFC South, 1390 01:00:36,760 --> 01:00:38,600 Speaker 2: there's only oh. 1391 01:00:38,480 --> 01:00:42,000 Speaker 3: Gosh, yeah, what's he going to be pee cocking around on? 1392 01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:46,120 Speaker 2: Oh my god, Jesus, what's It's unbelievable. 1393 01:00:46,560 --> 01:00:50,720 Speaker 4: It's Wednesday's I mean, that's fine Italian leather, of course. 1394 01:00:50,760 --> 01:00:53,320 Speaker 4: And how does he keep those bottoms so white? 1395 01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:55,320 Speaker 2: I'm curious about that. I always worry about that when 1396 01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:57,240 Speaker 2: I because I have a couple pair of like those, 1397 01:00:57,440 --> 01:01:01,720 Speaker 2: that type of shoe, not necessarily those, But then and 1398 01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:02,320 Speaker 2: and I don't. 1399 01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:04,920 Speaker 4: Look at the nation, look at the nation. Just finish 1400 01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:10,600 Speaker 4: his schoolwork, take a bow. Congratulations, got it? So proud 1401 01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:12,440 Speaker 4: of Bacco? So probably I love, I love? 1402 01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:14,080 Speaker 3: But what did he do that? We're probably more other 1403 01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:14,600 Speaker 3: than just. 1404 01:01:15,520 --> 01:01:19,560 Speaker 4: And finished that all up? Yeah, yeah, just finished it 1405 01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:23,680 Speaker 4: all up on the great things as the great Bacco 1406 01:01:24,680 --> 01:01:25,520 Speaker 4: Uh winning? 1407 01:01:25,640 --> 01:01:27,720 Speaker 2: Is it some sort Is there a white that he 1408 01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:30,600 Speaker 2: would be using going back to swag to keep those 1409 01:01:30,640 --> 01:01:33,640 Speaker 2: things so perly white? Or does he never walk on dust? 1410 01:01:34,160 --> 01:01:35,960 Speaker 4: It feels like he never walks on dust. And my 1411 01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:39,840 Speaker 4: guesses he gets home with that and immediately it's an 1412 01:01:39,880 --> 01:01:44,440 Speaker 4: immediate cleaning. I think He's like immediately wipe and working 1413 01:01:44,600 --> 01:01:47,680 Speaker 4: and wiping and making sure that he's keeping everything like 1414 01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:50,320 Speaker 4: completely one or pure? 1415 01:01:50,960 --> 01:01:51,640 Speaker 5: Is he is? 1416 01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:55,680 Speaker 2: He like Jordan and he just wears him once, no one, 1417 01:01:56,160 --> 01:02:01,960 Speaker 2: no one wear in then out no no, oh. 1418 01:02:01,600 --> 01:02:02,160 Speaker 5: Good grief. 1419 01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:05,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I in the NFC, who knows what the 1420 01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:07,560 Speaker 2: rams are trying to be? Alvin Kamar expected to meet 1421 01:02:07,560 --> 01:02:10,000 Speaker 2: with the Commissioner Roger Goodell today and in New York 1422 01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:12,520 Speaker 2: regarding his potential suspension. Reached a plea dale in July, 1423 01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:14,840 Speaker 2: no longer facing felony charges for rolling the fight and 1424 01:02:14,840 --> 01:02:18,320 Speaker 2: the eve of the Pro Bowl in twenty twenty two. 1425 01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:22,240 Speaker 2: That Saints operation is the one in the NFC South 1426 01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:24,160 Speaker 2: that feels like it could go a little bit. And 1427 01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:26,240 Speaker 2: I mean they'll be valiedictorian to summer school, but that 1428 01:02:26,360 --> 01:02:27,560 Speaker 2: still gets you into the postseason. 1429 01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:30,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I think the Falcons have a chance, even 1430 01:02:30,280 --> 01:02:32,400 Speaker 4: though I think that their first round pick was not serious. 1431 01:02:32,560 --> 01:02:35,800 Speaker 4: And then I do have concerns about Desmond Ritter. But yeah, 1432 01:02:36,200 --> 01:02:37,840 Speaker 4: it doesn't feel like right now it's going to be 1433 01:02:37,840 --> 01:02:39,760 Speaker 4: the box if the reports out of their camp are 1434 01:02:39,840 --> 01:02:41,920 Speaker 4: to be believed. Right now, it doesn't feel like that's 1435 01:02:41,920 --> 01:02:45,280 Speaker 4: a team that I feel like could completely fire sale. 1436 01:02:45,320 --> 01:02:47,360 Speaker 4: Mike Evans could be playing somewhere at the deadline and 1437 01:02:47,600 --> 01:02:50,120 Speaker 4: saw what Aaron Rodgers said about why he freed up 1438 01:02:50,160 --> 01:02:52,200 Speaker 4: that money so that they can. 1439 01:02:52,160 --> 01:02:54,120 Speaker 3: No, I did not I knowss that. So what he 1440 01:02:54,240 --> 01:02:54,600 Speaker 3: said the. 1441 01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:57,000 Speaker 4: Reason that he took that pay cut was he's here 1442 01:02:57,040 --> 01:03:00,160 Speaker 4: to win a super Bowl and basically he feels like 1443 01:03:00,200 --> 01:03:01,800 Speaker 4: at the trade deadline that's when a lot of big 1444 01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:03,440 Speaker 4: names move in the NFL now, and he wants the 1445 01:03:03,480 --> 01:03:06,120 Speaker 4: Jets out of the financial resources to get a big name 1446 01:03:06,320 --> 01:03:08,560 Speaker 4: if that would help push them over the top. And 1447 01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:10,720 Speaker 4: so you think about could that mean DeVante Adams who 1448 01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:13,040 Speaker 4: wants to get back with him? Could that mean a 1449 01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:15,720 Speaker 4: Mike Evans where you add him into Garrett Wilson and 1450 01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:17,640 Speaker 4: all of a sudden you're saying, Okay, this is a 1451 01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:20,040 Speaker 4: lot of fun, this is very interesting. So I think 1452 01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:24,280 Speaker 4: that that's that's why he did did that. But going 1453 01:03:24,320 --> 01:03:26,720 Speaker 4: back to the NFC South, it doesn't feel like Carolina 1454 01:03:26,880 --> 01:03:28,720 Speaker 4: is going to be serious. Although we never know what 1455 01:03:28,760 --> 01:03:30,760 Speaker 4: Bryce Young is. By the way, I feel like I've 1456 01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:34,120 Speaker 4: heard never heard less. I've heard more about Anthony Richardson 1457 01:03:34,120 --> 01:03:35,920 Speaker 4: than c J. Stroud and Bryce Young combined. 1458 01:03:38,320 --> 01:03:41,360 Speaker 2: Some of that could be markets. India is a market 1459 01:03:41,360 --> 01:03:44,520 Speaker 2: that's covered a little bit more strenuously than certainly than 1460 01:03:44,600 --> 01:03:48,880 Speaker 2: Carolina and Houston. Houston's a monster city and I know 1461 01:03:48,920 --> 01:03:51,160 Speaker 2: that there. Obviously they talk Texans, but it's been so 1462 01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:53,600 Speaker 2: hopeless of lately. I wonder if they talk more like 1463 01:03:54,080 --> 01:03:56,600 Speaker 2: Texas A and M football or Astros and all that. 1464 01:03:57,000 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 2: I'm not sure exactly that, but now I everything that 1465 01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:02,080 Speaker 2: I've I've seen on When I do see something on 1466 01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:04,800 Speaker 2: Bryce Young, he looks great, like the stuff that I've 1467 01:04:04,840 --> 01:04:08,360 Speaker 2: seen in camp and Stroud. I think he didn't throw 1468 01:04:08,400 --> 01:04:11,120 Speaker 2: a pick until Sunday. He went like several days without 1469 01:04:11,160 --> 01:04:13,120 Speaker 2: throwing a pick down there. Both of them are good 1470 01:04:13,120 --> 01:04:15,040 Speaker 2: to go. It seems like Richardson's gonna be good to go. 1471 01:04:15,080 --> 01:04:17,600 Speaker 2: He got all eighteen starter reps on Tuesday. To me, 1472 01:04:17,640 --> 01:04:19,160 Speaker 2: he feels like somebody just go play. 1473 01:04:20,280 --> 01:04:21,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what they're gonna do. I think they're just 1474 01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:23,480 Speaker 4: gonna go out there and they're gonna play him. I mean, 1475 01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:26,080 Speaker 4: Gardner Minshew's there if they need him. But yeah, I 1476 01:04:26,080 --> 01:04:29,800 Speaker 4: think that he's absolutely gonna go and and play. But yeah, 1477 01:04:29,800 --> 01:04:31,880 Speaker 4: that NFC South's wide open. The Saints do feel like 1478 01:04:31,920 --> 01:04:36,880 Speaker 4: they've got the most talent top to bottom. Yeah, he 1479 01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:38,200 Speaker 4: just never feel like you know what's going on with 1480 01:04:38,280 --> 01:04:38,960 Speaker 4: Michael Thomas. 1481 01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:42,280 Speaker 2: He doesn't know. And then he got big, Like you 1482 01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:43,280 Speaker 2: see how yoked he is. 1483 01:04:43,600 --> 01:04:44,800 Speaker 4: He looks like David Boston. 1484 01:04:44,880 --> 01:04:47,720 Speaker 2: Yeah you can't, that's you get too big. Man can't 1485 01:04:47,720 --> 01:04:47,960 Speaker 2: do it. 1486 01:04:48,080 --> 01:04:51,480 Speaker 4: What about Jimmy Graham? There's another one. Is he really 1487 01:04:51,480 --> 01:04:53,000 Speaker 4: gonna go play for the Saints? Is that real? 1488 01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:53,600 Speaker 3: Is that the talk? 1489 01:04:53,920 --> 01:04:57,160 Speaker 4: Yeah? That is the top? 1490 01:04:57,280 --> 01:05:01,200 Speaker 3: Jeez? Hey, how many people? I wish Gibbe was here? 1491 01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:02,800 Speaker 4: Why is he do a guest? 1492 01:05:03,120 --> 01:05:04,520 Speaker 3: I'd love to do. I'd like to do a guest 1493 01:05:04,520 --> 01:05:05,840 Speaker 3: of stats on Mike Evans. 1494 01:05:06,680 --> 01:05:07,640 Speaker 4: Okay, what about him? 1495 01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:12,720 Speaker 2: With how many thousand yard seasons he would think Mike 1496 01:05:12,720 --> 01:05:14,200 Speaker 2: Evans has in this career. 1497 01:05:15,280 --> 01:05:17,880 Speaker 4: I believe that he has nine and they are nine straight, 1498 01:05:17,920 --> 01:05:19,320 Speaker 4: and he's the first person who's ever done that. 1499 01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:22,880 Speaker 2: I don't think people would have that really, I don't 1500 01:05:22,880 --> 01:05:25,320 Speaker 2: think so, unless like you, like a fantasy person, I 1501 01:05:25,320 --> 01:05:27,160 Speaker 2: think would have it. But I think if you were 1502 01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:29,200 Speaker 2: just a casual football fan, I don't know that you 1503 01:05:29,200 --> 01:05:31,160 Speaker 2: would know that he is the only receiver in NFL 1504 01:05:31,240 --> 01:05:34,120 Speaker 2: history to have nine straight thousand yard seasons. 1505 01:05:33,760 --> 01:05:34,439 Speaker 3: To start a career. 1506 01:05:35,320 --> 01:05:38,560 Speaker 4: It's an incredible Ecconomics gold jacket. I think. So this 1507 01:05:38,720 --> 01:05:40,840 Speaker 4: was something that we talked about when we played them 1508 01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:43,120 Speaker 4: last year. And that's another reason why I know that, 1509 01:05:43,120 --> 01:05:44,360 Speaker 4: because we played the Bucks last year. 1510 01:05:44,360 --> 01:05:46,680 Speaker 2: And I mean the yards of reception numbers are unbelievable 1511 01:05:46,680 --> 01:05:49,680 Speaker 2: fifteen and a half, sixteen, seventeen and seventeen point seven, 1512 01:05:49,760 --> 01:05:55,520 Speaker 2: seventeen point three. Yes, yes, it's craziness. 1513 01:05:55,960 --> 01:05:56,480 Speaker 3: It's amazing. 1514 01:05:56,480 --> 01:06:00,240 Speaker 2: He was best with Jamis from Statistically, he's unbelievable. 1515 01:05:59,800 --> 01:06:02,120 Speaker 4: Break fromdowns that year. They threw it like he. 1516 01:06:02,120 --> 01:06:02,880 Speaker 3: Threw it everywhere. 1517 01:06:04,040 --> 01:06:06,440 Speaker 2: His yards per game, his yards went down with Brady, 1518 01:06:06,520 --> 01:06:09,360 Speaker 2: but his touchdowns were unbelievable thirteen and fourteen in back 1519 01:06:09,360 --> 01:06:10,040 Speaker 2: to back years. 1520 01:06:11,520 --> 01:06:14,440 Speaker 3: It's interesting though, like it's it's five. 1521 01:06:14,520 --> 01:06:16,800 Speaker 4: Pro it's four Pro Bowls, one All Pro. 1522 01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:19,000 Speaker 2: And just one All Pro. So that's probably not half. 1523 01:06:19,720 --> 01:06:21,360 Speaker 2: I guess the other thing we're gonna have to do 1524 01:06:21,440 --> 01:06:23,000 Speaker 2: is we kind of get it to wrap our heads. 1525 01:06:23,080 --> 01:06:25,440 Speaker 4: I mean, the sport's different, this is a level, this 1526 01:06:25,480 --> 01:06:30,320 Speaker 4: is an unbelievable greatness. Yeah, that is pretty incredible for sure. 1527 01:06:30,520 --> 01:06:34,040 Speaker 2: For sure, and because of his build, you know, it's 1528 01:06:34,080 --> 01:06:35,680 Speaker 2: six ' five, like he could do this for a 1529 01:06:35,720 --> 01:06:36,280 Speaker 2: while well. 1530 01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:37,640 Speaker 4: And you thought he would break down and he just 1531 01:06:37,840 --> 01:06:42,040 Speaker 4: he never seems to. Yeah, and he's he was very 1532 01:06:42,040 --> 01:06:46,000 Speaker 4: good in the postseason. Four touchdowns in his in his 1533 01:06:46,080 --> 01:06:49,280 Speaker 4: postseason career, five hundred and fourteen yards fifteen yards to catch, 1534 01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:54,400 Speaker 4: four touchdowns in seven games. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, 1535 01:06:54,400 --> 01:06:57,320 Speaker 4: if you when you they drafted him seventh overall, and 1536 01:06:57,400 --> 01:06:59,640 Speaker 4: I'll go back that. I remember watching Johnny Manzel tape 1537 01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:01,000 Speaker 4: coming out text A and EM and I'm just like 1538 01:07:02,800 --> 01:07:04,960 Speaker 4: I thought, I said, if you're gonna draft him, you 1539 01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:08,080 Speaker 4: gotta get Evans too. I mean this Evan guy. Basically, 1540 01:07:08,120 --> 01:07:09,840 Speaker 4: it felt like a lot of their offense was run around, 1541 01:07:09,920 --> 01:07:11,840 Speaker 4: do something wild and then throw it up and then 1542 01:07:12,080 --> 01:07:15,040 Speaker 4: Mike Evans would just go catch it. You go moss 1543 01:07:15,040 --> 01:07:18,680 Speaker 4: people and then run around. I mean, he was so impressive. 1544 01:07:18,840 --> 01:07:22,479 Speaker 4: But to do what he's done at that size for 1545 01:07:24,160 --> 01:07:27,720 Speaker 4: nine straight seasons likely potentially, and I think this could 1546 01:07:27,760 --> 01:07:29,480 Speaker 4: be the first year or where he falls under it. 1547 01:07:29,600 --> 01:07:30,840 Speaker 4: I think it's gonna be tough to get there this 1548 01:07:30,880 --> 01:07:34,200 Speaker 4: year unless he gets traded. It's pretty wild. 1549 01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:36,520 Speaker 2: I don't know what they're doing, like to me if 1550 01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:39,600 Speaker 2: you were, you're gonna be bad every Like we know 1551 01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:43,000 Speaker 2: everybody by now, we know what Baker is. Like you 1552 01:07:43,120 --> 01:07:46,920 Speaker 2: drafted Trask, go let him see, go see what he is. 1553 01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:47,959 Speaker 4: He's the answer. 1554 01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:49,840 Speaker 2: And if he's not, then so then you go back 1555 01:07:49,880 --> 01:07:51,480 Speaker 2: to Baker. You can play Baker down the road and 1556 01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:53,040 Speaker 2: you can play out the stretch whatever, and you draft 1557 01:07:53,080 --> 01:07:57,800 Speaker 2: a quarterback. But like, the most stupefying thing from a 1558 01:07:57,840 --> 01:08:00,400 Speaker 2: branding situation that's been done is not having those reforms 1559 01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:03,120 Speaker 2: ready for Brady. Like the fact that that nobody did 1560 01:08:03,200 --> 01:08:06,840 Speaker 2: that while they had Brady is absolutely ridiculous. One one 1561 01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:09,240 Speaker 2: thing we never got a chance to get to. Let's 1562 01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:11,400 Speaker 2: do it right now. Who was it that made the 1563 01:08:11,440 --> 01:08:13,640 Speaker 2: Begnet's comment. 1564 01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:16,960 Speaker 4: Jamal Williams right, So jam. 1565 01:08:16,120 --> 01:08:20,280 Speaker 2: Begnatties, Yeah, so he makes the Begnets claim that they're overrated. 1566 01:08:20,360 --> 01:08:22,680 Speaker 2: Essentially what he's a funnel. It's a funnel, cack, is 1567 01:08:22,720 --> 01:08:25,840 Speaker 2: what he says. And you had texted and you had 1568 01:08:25,840 --> 01:08:27,800 Speaker 2: said this would be great on the show, and I 1569 01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:30,960 Speaker 2: agree that it would. I think it's my take on 1570 01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:35,679 Speaker 2: it is. I think it is both underrated, I'm sorry, 1571 01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:40,599 Speaker 2: overrated and properly rated. What I mean by that is, 1572 01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:43,720 Speaker 2: would I want to have it? 1573 01:08:43,800 --> 01:08:44,719 Speaker 4: Look at that guy. 1574 01:08:46,040 --> 01:08:49,639 Speaker 3: Right there, I feel a legend. Yeah what I want. 1575 01:08:49,720 --> 01:08:51,720 Speaker 2: I'm not going to eat at Beignet every day now. 1576 01:08:51,760 --> 01:08:53,760 Speaker 2: They're not that great on their own. But it's also 1577 01:08:53,880 --> 01:08:56,920 Speaker 2: it costs you, like four bucks, okay, at Cafe Dumont 1578 01:08:56,920 --> 01:09:01,600 Speaker 2: it's nothing. And in that moment with a with with 1579 01:09:01,680 --> 01:09:03,360 Speaker 2: a coffee and the powdered sugar and all of. 1580 01:09:03,280 --> 01:09:06,479 Speaker 3: It, it's pretty good. You wouldn't you wouldn't want to 1581 01:09:06,520 --> 01:09:08,760 Speaker 3: have it. Look at the boss man there, he is 1582 01:09:09,240 --> 01:09:09,679 Speaker 3: how he feels. 1583 01:09:09,920 --> 01:09:11,800 Speaker 4: I don't agree though that it's like a funnel cake. 1584 01:09:12,040 --> 01:09:17,320 Speaker 2: It's not like a funnel cake little and is heavy. 1585 01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:21,879 Speaker 4: Benet to me is like a giant if a pocket 1586 01:09:21,960 --> 01:09:26,560 Speaker 4: square became a donut. Yeah, that's what a Benet is. 1587 01:09:27,400 --> 01:09:28,680 Speaker 3: I don't have a problem with that. I think that's 1588 01:09:28,720 --> 01:09:33,120 Speaker 3: pretty good. It's not as it's tighter, Yes, more dense, 1589 01:09:33,520 --> 01:09:34,120 Speaker 3: more dense than that. 1590 01:09:34,240 --> 01:09:37,639 Speaker 4: I prefer like a I would prefer a smattering of 1591 01:09:38,040 --> 01:09:39,919 Speaker 4: you know, you get like it at Red the Steakhouse, 1592 01:09:39,960 --> 01:09:42,200 Speaker 4: for example, you can get those donut holes and then 1593 01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:44,040 Speaker 4: you dip them in your rasbes like I prefer that 1594 01:09:44,080 --> 01:09:46,280 Speaker 4: to a Bennet but so wuld I I enjoyed having 1595 01:09:46,320 --> 01:09:49,759 Speaker 4: a bene at Cafe DeMont in New Orleans. 1596 01:09:49,800 --> 01:09:50,200 Speaker 3: That's right. 1597 01:09:50,280 --> 01:09:52,960 Speaker 2: It's the one place where it's like it's the only 1598 01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:54,840 Speaker 2: place you ever see him. It's the only place that 1599 01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:58,040 Speaker 2: ought to really ever do them. They're good in that moment. 1600 01:09:57,920 --> 01:10:00,000 Speaker 3: And and that's it. It's properly rated. 1601 01:10:00,160 --> 01:10:02,920 Speaker 2: And also, no, it's not like the greatest donut you've 1602 01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:04,120 Speaker 2: ever had in your life. I can think of a 1603 01:10:04,160 --> 01:10:05,680 Speaker 2: thousand donuts I'd rather have over it. 1604 01:10:05,800 --> 01:10:07,400 Speaker 4: And it's not a place that if you go down 1605 01:10:07,400 --> 01:10:09,479 Speaker 4: in New Orleans and you go there on day one 1606 01:10:09,520 --> 01:10:12,639 Speaker 4: of your trip, you're not necessarily going back to three. 1607 01:10:12,600 --> 01:10:15,280 Speaker 3: Four going back, You're going once. 1608 01:10:15,360 --> 01:10:17,639 Speaker 4: And I think that's what he was saying, like these 1609 01:10:17,680 --> 01:10:20,840 Speaker 4: Benyatties are they're fine, but like you guys are making 1610 01:10:20,840 --> 01:10:22,920 Speaker 4: it out to be like it's changed the pastry game. 1611 01:10:24,240 --> 01:10:26,000 Speaker 3: It's not, and it's not. So I think he's right. 1612 01:10:26,120 --> 01:10:27,679 Speaker 4: I do think he's right. He's right, and he's wrong, 1613 01:10:27,760 --> 01:10:29,960 Speaker 4: and then he's like, well that's not going to play well. Well, well, 1614 01:10:30,080 --> 01:10:33,200 Speaker 4: if you like the Begnatties, I mean, And Jamal Williams 1615 01:10:33,200 --> 01:10:35,120 Speaker 4: is so great. He gave the best interview of all 1616 01:10:35,160 --> 01:10:38,479 Speaker 4: time at an unbelievable season, Like, how many people if 1617 01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:40,679 Speaker 4: we played guests the stats with giving how many touchdowns 1618 01:10:40,720 --> 01:10:42,519 Speaker 4: does he think Jamal Williams rushed for last year? 1619 01:10:42,600 --> 01:10:43,920 Speaker 3: It's like sixteen, isn't it. 1620 01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:48,200 Speaker 2: I thought seventeen, But it's it's way he led the league, 1621 01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:50,920 Speaker 2: led the league in touchdowns and he only had like 1622 01:10:50,960 --> 01:10:53,640 Speaker 2: a thousand yards though, right or just under right at 1623 01:10:53,680 --> 01:10:56,120 Speaker 2: a thousand. Yeah, he wasn't like a fifteen hundred yard back, 1624 01:10:56,120 --> 01:10:58,040 Speaker 2: but he was basically got all the red zone stuff. 1625 01:10:58,120 --> 01:10:59,880 Speaker 4: What I like about it is that they had Jamal 1626 01:11:00,040 --> 01:11:03,080 Speaker 4: Williams and they're like, we're not gay in seventeen rushing 1627 01:11:03,080 --> 01:11:05,960 Speaker 4: touchdows thousand and sixty six yards, seventeen touchdowns, We're not 1628 01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:08,240 Speaker 4: gonna pay average four yards a carry. I mean, yeah, 1629 01:11:08,240 --> 01:11:14,120 Speaker 4: it's incredible, but they're like, we're not gonna pay him, 1630 01:11:14,160 --> 01:11:17,200 Speaker 4: but we're gonna do And we're not gonna pay a 1631 01:11:17,240 --> 01:11:19,400 Speaker 4: guy DeAndre Sift that we still have on a rookie deal, who, 1632 01:11:19,439 --> 01:11:21,439 Speaker 4: by the way, whenever he touched the ball was electric 1633 01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:24,920 Speaker 4: for and he in Philly, Philly for nothing for the dollar. 1634 01:11:25,920 --> 01:11:30,920 Speaker 4: Same with Richard Penny. What we're gonna do is hand 1635 01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:34,479 Speaker 4: out decent money to David Montgomery to come in and 1636 01:11:34,520 --> 01:11:37,160 Speaker 4: be Jamal Williams, I guess, and then we're gonna use 1637 01:11:37,160 --> 01:11:42,479 Speaker 4: a first round pick on Jamar Gibbs to be DeAndre 1638 01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:44,799 Speaker 4: Swift and they obviously hope think that he's better. 1639 01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:45,360 Speaker 3: Than any he's better. 1640 01:11:45,439 --> 01:11:50,360 Speaker 2: But yeah, that's what that's the operation. Florio reporting this. 1641 01:11:51,200 --> 01:11:54,640 Speaker 2: The NFL is considering adopting the XFL's kickoff style. What 1642 01:11:54,720 --> 01:11:56,920 Speaker 2: is that as a possible replacement for the kickoff format? 1643 01:11:56,920 --> 01:11:59,360 Speaker 2: According to Mike Florio, I think this is when you 1644 01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:01,960 Speaker 2: put the two line of scrimmage right ten yards apart 1645 01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:05,200 Speaker 2: or five yards apart, like instead of having that big collision, 1646 01:12:05,240 --> 01:12:07,960 Speaker 2: like you just put like all guys ten guys and 1647 01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:10,000 Speaker 2: then the kicker goes way back and kicks it to 1648 01:12:10,040 --> 01:12:13,000 Speaker 2: the returner and so you don't have those huge collisions. 1649 01:12:13,040 --> 01:12:15,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is it. 1650 01:12:15,600 --> 01:12:17,479 Speaker 4: It feels like it lends itself, like if they get 1651 01:12:17,479 --> 01:12:19,280 Speaker 4: through one crease, they're gone because they aren't coming down 1652 01:12:19,400 --> 01:12:20,799 Speaker 4: like in good kind of waves. 1653 01:12:21,080 --> 01:12:21,760 Speaker 3: I like that though. 1654 01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:23,720 Speaker 2: I mean the kick as you know, having been in 1655 01:12:24,040 --> 01:12:26,240 Speaker 2: that building, when you get a kick return or punt 1656 01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:28,360 Speaker 2: return touchdown, it's about as loud as it gets. 1657 01:12:28,720 --> 01:12:30,960 Speaker 4: Well, Yeah. We did have a punt return touchdown last 1658 01:12:31,000 --> 01:12:33,400 Speaker 4: year Donovan People's Jones, which was our first since Travis 1659 01:12:33,400 --> 01:12:35,599 Speaker 4: Benjamin and fourteen. We have not had a kick return 1660 01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:38,400 Speaker 4: touchdown since the great Jash Cribs had two of them 1661 01:12:38,520 --> 01:12:40,439 Speaker 4: in a single game against the Kansas City Chiefs in 1662 01:12:40,479 --> 01:12:44,400 Speaker 4: the year two thousand and nine. So hopefully I'll. 1663 01:12:44,280 --> 01:12:47,000 Speaker 3: Be a good one a minute, all right, coming up next, 1664 01:12:47,040 --> 01:12:48,080 Speaker 3: we'll do a little better or worse. 1665 01:12:48,080 --> 01:12:49,880 Speaker 2: You'll listen to Cleveland Browns Daily, brought to you by 1666 01:12:49,880 --> 01:12:51,960 Speaker 2: Bally Bette Sports winning part in your Cleveland Browns Coming 1667 01:12:51,960 --> 01:12:53,479 Speaker 2: Soon to Ohio on eight fifty ESPN. 1668 01:12:53,280 --> 01:13:09,240 Speaker 1: Cleveland Cleveland Browns Daily brought to you by Bally bett 1669 01:13:09,479 --> 01:13:12,799 Speaker 1: Coming Soon to Ohio on eight fifty ESPN. 1670 01:13:12,880 --> 01:13:21,760 Speaker 2: Cleveland Browns Fans, you want to experience the twenty twenty 1671 01:13:21,760 --> 01:13:23,839 Speaker 2: three brown seasons.

I listened to all you 1693 01:14:19,400 --> 01:14:20,840 Speaker 13: guys on this I gotta learn. 1694 01:14:20,920 --> 01:14:25,280 Speaker 3: All right. That's fine. What a great I like. Yeah, 1695 01:14:25,320 --> 01:14:27,400 Speaker 3: there's a lot to like about him. There's gonna come 1696 01:14:27,439 --> 01:14:31,840 Speaker 3: a time. There's gonna we said yesterday, Esteban Stock, get 1697 01:14:31,840 --> 01:14:35,639 Speaker 3: it on the UNO. I p o do it, rocket ship. 1698 01:14:36,360 --> 01:14:39,000 Speaker 3: All right, So here we go Top twenty five players 1699 01:14:39,080 --> 01:14:41,519 Speaker 3: under twenty five. Go ahead, buddy, all right. 1700 01:14:41,600 --> 01:14:46,519 Speaker 12: So number one on the list is Michaeh. Parsons. 1701 01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:48,720 Speaker 4: All right, fine with that? 1702 01:14:48,800 --> 01:14:51,519 Speaker 2: So then you would say higher or lower for Micah Parsons, 1703 01:14:51,560 --> 01:14:52,760 Speaker 2: and then you would give it to one of us. 1704 01:14:52,840 --> 01:14:57,040 Speaker 13: Okay, higher or lower for Micah Parsons, let's start with 1705 01:14:57,080 --> 01:14:57,800 Speaker 13: you Bo. 1706 01:15:00,200 --> 01:15:01,040 Speaker 3: He's really good. 1707 01:15:01,439 --> 01:15:03,360 Speaker 2: It's hard to argue with their list because it's all 1708 01:15:03,360 --> 01:15:07,400 Speaker 2: their data driven, so you're arguing against their data. I 1709 01:15:07,439 --> 01:15:10,400 Speaker 2: think the best player under twenty five in the NFL 1710 01:15:10,520 --> 01:15:13,160 Speaker 2: is the guy right below him. However, I would take 1711 01:15:13,320 --> 01:15:17,760 Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson over Micah Parsons, even though they're both ridiculous. 1712 01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:22,760 Speaker 2: So give me Justin Jefferson over Parsons. Parsons slightly worserer. 1713 01:15:24,640 --> 01:15:26,880 Speaker 12: All right, ze number three on their list. 1714 01:15:27,080 --> 01:15:28,720 Speaker 3: Oh, he can weigh in on that one. 1715 01:15:29,160 --> 01:15:29,519 Speaker 5: That's a right. 1716 01:15:29,520 --> 01:15:32,360 Speaker 3: We're all figuring out at the same time. I agree 1717 01:15:32,360 --> 01:15:33,679 Speaker 3: with hims Pranson around. 1718 01:15:33,880 --> 01:15:36,960 Speaker 4: I will say that I think there are four players, 1719 01:15:37,040 --> 01:15:40,120 Speaker 4: actually five players on this list. Wow, that might be 1720 01:15:40,360 --> 01:15:41,439 Speaker 4: in their own tier. 1721 01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:42,240 Speaker 5: Oh. 1722 01:15:42,280 --> 01:15:44,840 Speaker 3: I love when we do this, and that's what I think. 1723 01:15:44,960 --> 01:15:46,920 Speaker 4: I love tier. 1724 01:15:47,040 --> 01:15:49,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, because you're right as soon as you get as 1725 01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:53,040 Speaker 2: soon as I knew where you were headed. Then it's like, honestly, 1726 01:15:53,080 --> 01:15:54,880 Speaker 2: we take these five and they're a different level. 1727 01:15:54,920 --> 01:16:00,799 Speaker 4: I think the different level tier is Justin Jefferson one, 1728 01:16:01,520 --> 01:16:09,720 Speaker 4: Micah Parsons two, Sauce Gardner three, Jamar Chase four, and 1729 01:16:09,760 --> 01:16:15,200 Speaker 4: Patrick certain the second five. He was certained was elite 1730 01:16:15,320 --> 01:16:19,400 Speaker 4: last year, and those are the most premium of positions. 1731 01:16:19,400 --> 01:16:21,760 Speaker 4: I think Tristan Wurf's is good, but I think right 1732 01:16:21,800 --> 01:16:26,479 Speaker 4: now you're talking about Justin Jefferson is the best receiver 1733 01:16:26,520 --> 01:16:32,000 Speaker 4: in football. Micah Parsons is one of the top four 1734 01:16:32,160 --> 01:16:38,799 Speaker 4: edges in football. Is that fair, Miles Mike Parson. 1735 01:16:39,240 --> 01:16:41,320 Speaker 3: I'd have him fourth of that on that list, though, 1736 01:16:41,360 --> 01:16:41,800 Speaker 3: wouldn't you. 1737 01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:45,080 Speaker 4: I think so. Yeah, Sauce Gardner might be the best 1738 01:16:45,120 --> 01:16:45,960 Speaker 4: corner in the NFL. 1739 01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:48,120 Speaker 2: People talk like he's the best corner in the football. 1740 01:16:48,479 --> 01:16:50,960 Speaker 2: That's what you hear is and he was a rookie. 1741 01:16:51,640 --> 01:16:51,920 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1742 01:16:52,680 --> 01:16:55,160 Speaker 3: So they in that draft they got Gardner and Wilson. 1743 01:16:55,760 --> 01:16:59,280 Speaker 4: Incredible job by them, and they got another first round. 1744 01:16:59,040 --> 01:17:01,320 Speaker 3: Of the guy Bryce Hall was in that draft for 1745 01:17:01,439 --> 01:17:03,000 Speaker 3: that Hell was in the was. 1746 01:17:02,920 --> 01:17:06,479 Speaker 4: A I think second round. They got the j John's 1747 01:17:06,479 --> 01:17:09,040 Speaker 4: from Florida State defensive end. Yeah, I say defensive in 1748 01:17:09,040 --> 01:17:12,360 Speaker 4: Florida State. He has not been obviously on that level. 1749 01:17:12,760 --> 01:17:16,439 Speaker 4: Jamar Chase is certainly a top five receiver in the league. Yeah, 1750 01:17:17,120 --> 01:17:21,880 Speaker 4: and then Certain last year was or Patrick Sartan was unneivable. 1751 01:17:21,960 --> 01:17:25,439 Speaker 4: Certain Patrick certain was unbelievable. So I think those five 1752 01:17:25,680 --> 01:17:28,320 Speaker 4: are in their own category to me. And then you 1753 01:17:28,360 --> 01:17:32,479 Speaker 4: get kind of Tristan Wurf's Creed Humphrey. What I don't 1754 01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:36,160 Speaker 4: understand is that it felt like Andrew Thomas was regarded 1755 01:17:36,160 --> 01:17:38,519 Speaker 4: as being the best in the league at tackle last 1756 01:17:38,560 --> 01:17:40,960 Speaker 4: year and he's down at ten and Worfs is at three, 1757 01:17:41,000 --> 01:17:42,679 Speaker 4: but that they're in that he's in the next group 1758 01:17:42,720 --> 01:17:45,000 Speaker 4: along with like cde Lamb and Jalen Waddle. I think 1759 01:17:44,960 --> 01:17:47,880 Speaker 4: Wattle's really good, but I think there are a lot 1760 01:17:47,880 --> 01:17:50,840 Speaker 4: of good players. Obviously it's a loaded list. Yes, to 1761 01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:57,840 Speaker 4: be fair, Yes, Garrett Wilson at nineteen feels like he 1762 01:17:57,920 --> 01:17:59,000 Speaker 4: won't be there next year. 1763 01:17:59,080 --> 01:18:01,160 Speaker 3: Same with the guy right above him, Trevor. They're both 1764 01:18:01,200 --> 01:18:01,519 Speaker 3: too low. 1765 01:18:01,720 --> 01:18:06,559 Speaker 13: Like next all right, Well talked over a couple of 1766 01:18:06,560 --> 01:18:09,000 Speaker 13: these already, but we'll go to fourteen with T Higgins 1767 01:18:09,080 --> 01:18:10,400 Speaker 13: higher or lower. 1768 01:18:10,080 --> 01:18:15,320 Speaker 4: For t big T Higgins guy showed that he could 1769 01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:18,360 Speaker 4: be a receiver, the number one guy when when Chase 1770 01:18:18,479 --> 01:18:20,320 Speaker 4: was out. But like right now, if you're saying, okay, Nathan, 1771 01:18:20,360 --> 01:18:24,320 Speaker 4: you get to start a franchise, and you can have T. Higgins. 1772 01:18:25,000 --> 01:18:26,720 Speaker 4: I'm just gonna go with people ranked below him. You 1773 01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:30,360 Speaker 4: can have T. Higgins, you can have DeVante Smith, you 1774 01:18:30,439 --> 01:18:36,400 Speaker 4: can have Garrett Wilson. I'm gonna take Garrett Wilson. 1775 01:18:38,560 --> 01:18:40,720 Speaker 2: Do that going ahead of that though, Like are we 1776 01:18:40,840 --> 01:18:44,400 Speaker 2: sure that? Like, would you take for sure Ceedee Lamb 1777 01:18:44,439 --> 01:18:45,160 Speaker 2: over him. 1778 01:18:45,080 --> 01:18:45,880 Speaker 4: Over T Higgins? 1779 01:18:45,960 --> 01:18:46,160 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1780 01:18:46,240 --> 01:18:47,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm a big Cede Lamb guy. 1781 01:18:47,840 --> 01:18:50,439 Speaker 3: Would you for sure take Jaylen Wattle ahead of him? 1782 01:18:52,320 --> 01:18:56,240 Speaker 4: I think yes. I think they're different stylistically, like totally. 1783 01:18:56,240 --> 01:18:58,160 Speaker 4: I'd like to have them both, so I have the 1784 01:18:58,160 --> 01:19:01,679 Speaker 4: big and yeah, the compliment, but I yeah, Wattles Wattle 1785 01:19:01,760 --> 01:19:02,400 Speaker 4: is nasty. 1786 01:19:02,640 --> 01:19:08,400 Speaker 2: No, I know this is a ridiculous list. 1787 01:19:08,760 --> 01:19:11,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, the hit Higgins is Higgins is. 1788 01:19:11,760 --> 01:19:16,960 Speaker 2: A hard one just because he plays with Chase. 1789 01:19:18,120 --> 01:19:19,639 Speaker 3: So how do you it's. 1790 01:19:19,439 --> 01:19:23,720 Speaker 2: Hard to without separate very good, but like you know, 1791 01:19:23,920 --> 01:19:26,240 Speaker 2: he's he's played with Chase when they've had Burrow, so 1792 01:19:26,560 --> 01:19:28,519 Speaker 2: other than Burrough's work at year, So it's hard to 1793 01:19:29,120 --> 01:19:31,400 Speaker 2: it's hard to say exactly how that that whole thing 1794 01:19:31,439 --> 01:19:35,000 Speaker 2: shakes out. The thing that is staggering to me is 1795 01:19:35,040 --> 01:19:39,080 Speaker 2: the overall amount of receiver talent that is in this 1796 01:19:39,200 --> 01:19:41,320 Speaker 2: league right now, at the highest level. 1797 01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:43,760 Speaker 3: There are game wreckers everywhere. 1798 01:19:44,760 --> 01:19:46,519 Speaker 4: You know, what I think is amazing is yes, there 1799 01:19:46,560 --> 01:19:48,599 Speaker 4: are a ton of there's a ton of receiver talent. 1800 01:19:48,640 --> 01:19:52,160 Speaker 4: In fact, that's the position that dominates this list. You 1801 01:19:52,200 --> 01:20:00,080 Speaker 4: look on the defensive line, you have Micah Parsons and 1802 01:20:00,080 --> 01:20:03,679 Speaker 4: I'm not sure there's anybody else. He's definitely the only edge. 1803 01:20:03,720 --> 01:20:05,880 Speaker 4: He's the only defensive lineman that's listed. There's some good 1804 01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:08,800 Speaker 4: young corners. I guess that means, well, it's Quinn and 1805 01:20:08,800 --> 01:20:11,760 Speaker 4: Williams over twenty five now and it's fifth year out Alabama. Yeah, 1806 01:20:11,760 --> 01:20:12,320 Speaker 4: you would have to be. 1807 01:20:12,400 --> 01:20:13,000 Speaker 3: You would have to be. 1808 01:20:13,040 --> 01:20:15,439 Speaker 2: But also like that, you know, like Chase Young didn't hit. 1809 01:20:16,040 --> 01:20:17,519 Speaker 2: He's been hurt and he didn't hit. He was the 1810 01:20:17,520 --> 01:20:19,960 Speaker 2: second pick in the draft, you know, so there's been 1811 01:20:20,040 --> 01:20:22,360 Speaker 2: guys that were dragged like Hi, they need Will Anderson 1812 01:20:22,360 --> 01:20:22,679 Speaker 2: to go. 1813 01:20:23,400 --> 01:20:25,559 Speaker 4: Do you think about n Houston, You think about Nick Bosa, 1814 01:20:26,040 --> 01:20:28,080 Speaker 4: you think about Miles you think about t J. Watt, 1815 01:20:28,360 --> 01:20:30,560 Speaker 4: Aaron Donald, the best pass rushers in the league. 1816 01:20:30,520 --> 01:20:32,800 Speaker 3: Joey Bosa. What is in that mix when healthy went healthy? 1817 01:20:32,880 --> 01:20:33,080 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1818 01:20:33,120 --> 01:20:36,679 Speaker 4: Sure, But like that's an eight more of an aging group, 1819 01:20:36,760 --> 01:20:39,840 Speaker 4: you know, Von Miller aging, Khalil Max certainly at this 1820 01:20:39,880 --> 01:20:42,760 Speaker 4: point aging. Robert Quinn quite old. 1821 01:20:43,479 --> 01:20:45,160 Speaker 3: Parsons is on an island a little. 1822 01:20:44,920 --> 01:20:47,960 Speaker 4: Bit like Hassan Reddick. All those guys. That means all 1823 01:20:47,960 --> 01:20:53,400 Speaker 4: those guys in Philly are that age like as Son Reddick. Yeah, yeah, 1824 01:20:54,080 --> 01:20:57,200 Speaker 4: late mid twenties. So on one hand, you say, okay, 1825 01:20:57,200 --> 01:21:00,200 Speaker 4: does that mean that there is there a paucity of 1826 01:21:00,320 --> 01:21:03,240 Speaker 4: young edges or is it becoming a situations the league 1827 01:21:03,240 --> 01:21:05,759 Speaker 4: where you need a little bit of seasoning to be dominant? 1828 01:21:05,760 --> 01:21:07,240 Speaker 4: Now Nick Bosa, Miles t J. 1829 01:21:07,360 --> 01:21:08,800 Speaker 3: Watt did not know the. 1830 01:21:09,920 --> 01:21:11,080 Speaker 4: Partons was great right away? 1831 01:21:11,479 --> 01:21:15,720 Speaker 13: Where do Kevon Thibodeaux and Aiden Hutchinson fit into that mix? 1832 01:21:15,800 --> 01:21:17,840 Speaker 12: Being how young they are? Are they close? 1833 01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:19,880 Speaker 4: Hutchinson has a chance. He had what nine sacks? 1834 01:21:20,040 --> 01:21:20,639 Speaker 3: He was really good? 1835 01:21:20,800 --> 01:21:21,559 Speaker 4: Yeah, he was good. 1836 01:21:24,040 --> 01:21:26,599 Speaker 2: Stack it right, Yeah, he probably just needs to stack 1837 01:21:26,640 --> 01:21:28,639 Speaker 2: it a little bit. You know, if he could stack 1838 01:21:28,720 --> 01:21:31,320 Speaker 2: a year and and get to fifteen and prove he's 1839 01:21:31,360 --> 01:21:34,200 Speaker 2: like a dominant edge, Yeah, that's probably where he's at. 1840 01:21:34,360 --> 01:21:35,960 Speaker 4: But I only had four sacks. He's got a long 1841 01:21:35,960 --> 01:21:36,400 Speaker 4: way to go. 1842 01:21:36,640 --> 01:21:40,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, Anderson is the guy everyone was kind of 1843 01:21:40,880 --> 01:21:41,439 Speaker 2: waiting for. 1844 01:21:41,640 --> 01:21:43,000 Speaker 4: Yep, like he was the next he's. 1845 01:21:42,920 --> 01:21:43,400 Speaker 12: The next guy. 1846 01:21:43,520 --> 01:21:46,040 Speaker 2: I mean, he's he was identified young at Bama and 1847 01:21:46,760 --> 01:21:49,439 Speaker 2: you know that Houston got him, so we'll see if 1848 01:21:49,439 --> 01:21:51,040 Speaker 2: he can be the next kind of guy. But he 1849 01:21:51,120 --> 01:21:53,840 Speaker 2: was in college football circles, he was the one everyone 1850 01:21:53,840 --> 01:21:54,599 Speaker 2: pointed to and. 1851 01:21:54,479 --> 01:21:56,400 Speaker 3: Said, when he goes, he goes. 1852 01:21:56,600 --> 01:21:56,840 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1853 01:21:56,840 --> 01:21:58,720 Speaker 2: There's a kid at LSU now as a sophomore named 1854 01:21:58,720 --> 01:22:00,519 Speaker 2: Harold Perkins that has that to him where it's like, 1855 01:22:00,560 --> 01:22:02,840 Speaker 2: when he gets there, that's the first pick in the 1856 01:22:02,920 --> 01:22:05,200 Speaker 2: draft if it's not a quarterback. Yeah, but he's only 1857 01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:05,799 Speaker 2: a sophomore. 1858 01:22:08,280 --> 01:22:11,840 Speaker 13: Next, all right, last one, we talked about the receiver talent, 1859 01:22:11,920 --> 01:22:15,160 Speaker 13: it's Drake London at number twenty higher or lower. 1860 01:22:15,280 --> 01:22:17,839 Speaker 3: For Drake, it's tough with him. 1861 01:22:18,439 --> 01:22:20,839 Speaker 4: It's going to be tough to evaluate him. Poor quarterback 1862 01:22:20,840 --> 01:22:22,600 Speaker 4: play last year is gonna have poor quarterback play this 1863 01:22:22,720 --> 01:22:25,280 Speaker 4: year most likely. And I just he's a name that 1864 01:22:25,360 --> 01:22:27,600 Speaker 4: I feel like from a talent standpoint, the size, the 1865 01:22:27,600 --> 01:22:30,000 Speaker 4: things that he did, people are very high on him. 1866 01:22:30,439 --> 01:22:32,600 Speaker 4: But it feels like with some of the guys that 1867 01:22:32,640 --> 01:22:36,120 Speaker 4: are coming into the league this year that it could 1868 01:22:36,160 --> 01:22:38,439 Speaker 4: be very likely that he finds himself not on this 1869 01:22:38,479 --> 01:22:39,680 Speaker 4: list next season. 1870 01:22:39,720 --> 01:22:41,720 Speaker 2: Well, they have Pits right behind him. So they have 1871 01:22:41,760 --> 01:22:43,599 Speaker 2: London at twenty and they have Pits at twenty one 1872 01:22:44,439 --> 01:22:47,439 Speaker 2: on this list, which goes back to the conference like 1873 01:22:48,240 --> 01:22:51,400 Speaker 2: the idea that they went b Jon Robinson and he 1874 01:22:51,400 --> 01:22:53,080 Speaker 2: looks great in camp and I'm sure he is going 1875 01:22:53,160 --> 01:22:55,640 Speaker 2: to be not a player back to not find a 1876 01:22:55,680 --> 01:22:59,160 Speaker 2: way to go quarterback and just be satisfied with Desmond 1877 01:22:59,200 --> 01:23:01,160 Speaker 2: Ritter when you have kind of the rest of it. 1878 01:23:01,240 --> 01:23:06,680 Speaker 2: One other thing on them in retrospect, how much of 1879 01:23:06,720 --> 01:23:08,599 Speaker 2: a theft of that was Calvin Ridley? 1880 01:23:09,160 --> 01:23:11,160 Speaker 4: Oh my god, Well we'll see. 1881 01:23:11,200 --> 01:23:13,719 Speaker 3: I mean, he feels like it's going electric. Yeah. 1882 01:23:13,840 --> 01:23:15,040 Speaker 2: I mean he was always owned as like one of 1883 01:23:15,080 --> 01:23:17,040 Speaker 2: the great route runners, like pure route runners. 1884 01:23:18,160 --> 01:23:20,120 Speaker 4: He was awesome with Atlanta, right. 1885 01:23:19,960 --> 01:23:21,759 Speaker 2: And he they got him for a bucket of balls 1886 01:23:21,760 --> 01:23:24,519 Speaker 2: for nothing zip for he sat for a year, yep. 1887 01:23:24,960 --> 01:23:27,719 Speaker 2: And now he's going to play in Jacksonville with Lawrence, 1888 01:23:27,800 --> 01:23:29,920 Speaker 2: with Lawrence and at ten and the rest of those cats. 1889 01:23:30,360 --> 01:23:34,200 Speaker 3: And it's like, why didn't Atlanta just sit on that Jones? 1890 01:23:34,240 --> 01:23:34,640 Speaker 4: Did they do? 1891 01:23:34,640 --> 01:23:36,200 Speaker 3: You think it was like they just felt like they 1892 01:23:36,200 --> 01:23:37,439 Speaker 3: were wronged or was it. 1893 01:23:37,479 --> 01:23:39,120 Speaker 4: I think maybe they just felt, yeah that you know, 1894 01:23:39,200 --> 01:23:41,639 Speaker 4: he we can't tolerated before. 1895 01:23:42,520 --> 01:23:44,439 Speaker 3: You know, he's still on his rookie deal mind you. 1896 01:23:45,240 --> 01:23:47,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, he's gonna be that's a good. 1897 01:23:46,880 --> 01:23:47,960 Speaker 3: Point out of you, Paulus. 1898 01:23:48,080 --> 01:23:50,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, he's gonna make a lot of money after this year, 1899 01:23:50,240 --> 01:23:50,720 Speaker 4: would be my y. 1900 01:23:50,800 --> 01:23:51,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he's gonna light it up. 1901 01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:52,880 Speaker 4: I think he's a very good one. 1902 01:23:52,880 --> 01:23:53,000 Speaker 9: Thing. 1903 01:23:53,080 --> 01:23:57,760 Speaker 2: Let's have a quick talk. Lawrence was eighteen on this list. 1904 01:23:57,800 --> 01:24:01,320 Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence was eighteen on this list. You know, the 1905 01:24:01,320 --> 01:24:03,920 Speaker 2: first thing here says Lawrence struggled during his rookie season, 1906 01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:06,800 Speaker 2: earning a fifty eight point three passing what he was 1907 01:24:06,920 --> 01:24:11,759 Speaker 2: probably it's probably the most derelict of duty's NFL coaching 1908 01:24:11,840 --> 01:24:14,200 Speaker 2: job in the history of the sport that Lawrence had 1909 01:24:14,240 --> 01:24:16,080 Speaker 2: to endure what Ervin Meyer did. 1910 01:24:16,160 --> 01:24:17,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, Sean Payton will see him way in on that. 1911 01:24:18,840 --> 01:24:20,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd like to hear the answer to that. I'd 1912 01:24:21,040 --> 01:24:23,560 Speaker 2: like for Sean Payton to I'd like his comments on 1913 01:24:23,600 --> 01:24:26,439 Speaker 2: the fact that Urban didn't understand why they weren't trying 1914 01:24:26,479 --> 01:24:30,040 Speaker 2: to win preseason games. I would like Sean Payton's comments 1915 01:24:30,040 --> 01:24:32,360 Speaker 2: of why how Urban went into a meeting room. Who's 1916 01:24:32,360 --> 01:24:34,080 Speaker 2: this ninety nine from the Rams? We should try to 1917 01:24:34,080 --> 01:24:37,599 Speaker 2: get him like I'd like, I told. 1918 01:24:37,400 --> 01:24:39,439 Speaker 4: You, hey, it's all football. What's what's up of that? 1919 01:24:39,479 --> 01:24:41,240 Speaker 2: How about the presser when he said, yeah, we're our 1920 01:24:41,240 --> 01:24:44,160 Speaker 2: goal is to be two fifty two fifty two fifty run, 1921 01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:45,479 Speaker 2: two fifty pass yardage? 1922 01:24:46,720 --> 01:24:50,040 Speaker 4: Okay, no Iowa State dude, Like, what are you talking about? 1923 01:24:50,240 --> 01:24:51,960 Speaker 3: Two and fifty teen rushing yards? 1924 01:24:52,160 --> 01:24:53,519 Speaker 2: I told you though, I don't think he had ever 1925 01:24:53,520 --> 01:24:57,320 Speaker 2: seen an NFL game like top like start to finish. 1926 01:24:57,040 --> 01:24:59,200 Speaker 3: Like I don't think get any idea. He was so 1927 01:24:59,360 --> 01:24:59,880 Speaker 3: bunkered in. 1928 01:25:00,120 --> 01:25:01,160 Speaker 4: But how did he get hired? 1929 01:25:02,320 --> 01:25:03,320 Speaker 3: Because when you're. 1930 01:25:03,160 --> 01:25:05,840 Speaker 2: In a room with him, he's impressive, and he talks 1931 01:25:05,960 --> 01:25:08,760 Speaker 2: leadership and he's straightforward. You ask him a question, you 1932 01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:11,599 Speaker 2: get a direct answer, like he's a leader of men, 1933 01:25:11,800 --> 01:25:14,040 Speaker 2: he's all those things. He won of those national titles, 1934 01:25:14,240 --> 01:25:16,080 Speaker 2: But he did not know the sport. 1935 01:25:16,400 --> 01:25:16,920 Speaker 3: Did not know this. 1936 01:25:17,080 --> 01:25:18,240 Speaker 4: It feels like a prereck with it. 1937 01:25:19,479 --> 01:25:21,080 Speaker 3: But do you just assume that he does. 1938 01:25:23,400 --> 01:25:26,439 Speaker 2: He must know the sport, like he's been so successful everywhere. 1939 01:25:26,439 --> 01:25:28,360 Speaker 2: How does he not know what the NFL is and 1940 01:25:28,400 --> 01:25:29,679 Speaker 2: how it works and salary caps? 1941 01:25:30,160 --> 01:25:35,400 Speaker 4: The NFL is it theoretically a level playing field, whereas 1942 01:25:35,439 --> 01:25:38,160 Speaker 4: in college you can make sure sure that your team 1943 01:25:38,280 --> 01:25:41,240 Speaker 4: is way better than everybody, yes, other than maybe two 1944 01:25:41,360 --> 01:25:42,400 Speaker 4: or three teams. 1945 01:25:42,040 --> 01:25:44,680 Speaker 2: And you can do so by your own value. You 1946 01:25:45,040 --> 01:25:48,479 Speaker 2: you are the recruiter, are the recruiting, you're the program, 1947 01:25:48,560 --> 01:25:51,360 Speaker 2: So you're in control of your roster entirely. I think 1948 01:25:51,400 --> 01:25:54,519 Speaker 2: Lawrence is going to have a great year, great year. 1949 01:25:54,760 --> 01:25:57,200 Speaker 2: I think there's a chance I would have them winning 1950 01:25:57,200 --> 01:25:59,479 Speaker 2: the South's I think they're going to do that. They 1951 01:26:00,520 --> 01:26:04,800 Speaker 2: beat the Chargers last year in a playoff game. There's 1952 01:26:04,840 --> 01:26:07,640 Speaker 2: no reason for me to believe that they're not. Not 1953 01:26:07,720 --> 01:26:09,880 Speaker 2: that we need another good AFC team, but they're gonna 1954 01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:10,160 Speaker 2: be good. 1955 01:26:10,520 --> 01:26:11,320 Speaker 3: Could agree more? 1956 01:26:11,439 --> 01:26:13,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, I could agree more. I think they're Yeah, they're 1957 01:26:13,240 --> 01:26:14,760 Speaker 4: one of the teams that I think probably feels like 1958 01:26:14,800 --> 01:26:17,080 Speaker 4: they can go deep into the postseason. 1959 01:26:17,720 --> 01:26:20,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, very good, Stevie, how do you think you did? 1960 01:26:20,320 --> 01:26:21,960 Speaker 3: I feel like, okay, I need it too. 1961 01:26:22,360 --> 01:26:22,680 Speaker 12: Thank you. 1962 01:26:22,760 --> 01:26:26,320 Speaker 3: We have a heart.
