We have 3 00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:08,799 Speaker 1: to performed though. We're gonna hold ourselves to the high 4 00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:11,360 Speaker 1: standard no matter what happens. And the defense is going 5 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:13,039 Speaker 1: to do what they do and last time I heard 6 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:15,040 Speaker 1: they can't win at the elseco points.

Of course he always does, folks. 32 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 1: He's the best best brest dressed man in radio, and 33 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 1: I'm always the mess dress man in radio. Away we 34 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: go with four downs first, alright, First things first, Browns 35 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: thirty two Pangles thirteen, the Browns snap a really tough 36 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: month of October to get to three and five and 37 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: two and one, and the a f C North growd. 38 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 1: Your thoughts and takeaways from the Browns best game of 39 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: the season, and why it was just so important to 40 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: go into this byer week. I think we all know, 41 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 1: but let's say it. Why it just was so important 42 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 1: to go into this bye week with a win. Well, 43 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 1: one of you don't get that win, the likelihood of 44 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: you making the playoffs are extremely remote because you're gonna 45 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: have to win in division. So what that game count as? 46 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: It count as a division win. But like you, Ken, 47 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: I was impressed by the fact that you all you 48 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: had all three phases of the football team compliment each other. Granted, 49 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 1: there were some mistakes and there were some turnovers, but 50 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,920 Speaker 1: ultimately we did so much, especially on the deepensive end, 51 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: and by far their best performance be it tackling, being 52 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: in the right run fits from a gap integrity standpoint, 53 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: as well as coverage depth and where they had to 54 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 1: be in the right spots for zone standpoint as well 55 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,959 Speaker 1: as man to man coverage. So impressive what I saw 56 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: on the defensive Sietey, and then offensively, did you ever 57 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: imagine it would be a situation, Ken, where Jacoby Brissette 58 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 1: without play Joe Burrow, I didn't. I gotta tell you 59 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: a credit to the coaching staff. Credit to Jacoby Brissetta 60 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,839 Speaker 1: obviously forgetting the job done. I mean, first things first 61 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: with him, my goodness, But I tell you what you know, 62 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: you look at that what this coaching staff has done, 63 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: and hey, they they have been ridiculed, they have been 64 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: criticized over the first first half of the season. Let's 65 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: be honest here. You know, three and five is not 66 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: where we wanted to be, and certainly before this two 67 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: and five is not where we wanted to be. You 68 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: and I both host radio shows, and we both have 69 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: people calling in, and there were some people who were 70 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: upset about this, But credit where it's d Kevin Stefanski, 71 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: Alex van Pelt. They both do good work with quarterbacks, 72 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 1: and they both have done a good job working with 73 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: the veteran Jacoby Brissette, and he did a good job 74 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: on Monday Night against it, said Sinnati Bengals defense, because 75 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: you and I we talked about this in in the 76 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: Browns game date Gerad where everybody's talking about Joe Burrow 77 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: and t Higgins and this offense and this that and 78 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: the other, and you and I are going, hey, you 79 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 1: know this defense, LOUI in a rumo. He knows what 80 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: he's doing. They haven't given up a touchdown in the 81 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 1: second half, and Browns beat the brakes off him in 82 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 1: the second half. Friends, So as the game was progressing, 83 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 1: I'm thinking about the overs and unders we were talking about, 84 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: and I believe they hit the ones we said they 85 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: need to hit to get the job done. Oh you 86 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: better believe it. My goodness, gracious, Nick Chubb was able 87 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: to do it, Jacoby Brissette was able to do it, 88 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: and they were able to do it without the tight end. Now, 89 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 1: Jacoby bar said, loves this tight ends. And one of 90 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: the things that the Bronze Twitter account highlighted was the 91 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 1: use of the offensive lineman. You had Michael Donne checking 92 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: into the game in heavy sets and then James Hudson 93 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 1: cracking down on linebackers coming down and Rod be still 94 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: my heart. And this is the difference that you get 95 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 1: on the radio because I mentioned this to people on 96 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,799 Speaker 1: Tuesday morning on three the Fan, one of the flagship 97 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: homes of Cleveland Bronze Football, where I had to say, Gerade. 98 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 1: When I listened to you, Nathan and Jim on the call, 99 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 1: you hear the referee, and when you're in the stadium, 100 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 1: you hear the referee announced who's helligible eligible. When you're 101 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: listening on TV or when you're watching on TV, you 102 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: usually don't get to hear that so in the stadium 103 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: you get to hear it. In a couple of times. 104 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: You were hearing three a linemen report eligible, with Yella 105 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: Froll being back there as a full back at times, 106 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: and then you heard James Hudson six, number sixty eight, 107 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 1: number sixty six, number seventy two all report a eligible. 108 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 1: I mean, my goodness, I thought Doug Deacon was gonna 109 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: come back and report eligible times. My goodness. It was unbelievable. 110 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 1: But it was a great job offensively by again Kevin Stefanski, 111 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: Alex Van Pelt, the staff to to work this thing 112 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 1: together because they are they're they're tight end heavy. Nothing 113 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 1: against Harrison Bryant, but he's not David a Cool He's 114 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: not yet. And they made this thing work. And it 115 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: was a great outing by Amari Cooper as well as 116 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: Donovan People's Jones and everybody involved in obviously Nick Chupp. 117 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: But that goes without saying gerade. Oh, it certainly does. 118 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 1: And going back to that heavy formation as we like 119 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: to call it, when you have all those lineman and king, 120 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: it's ingenius. One of the best things that we do 121 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: is run the football. So if you have a situation 122 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 1: where you can get seven to eight lineman on the 123 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: football field against a team that hasn't have enough personnel 124 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 1: to match up against it. There's nothing wrong with having 125 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: smashed my football, especially at the goal line. But what 126 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: I really impressed me about that particular play kin was 127 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: the fact that they created a serio scenario from a 128 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: play design standpoint, to where you had Nick Chupp one 129 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: on one with the would be tackler, and Nick Chuff 130 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: was gonna win that matchup dang near every time, just 131 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:51,359 Speaker 1: about every time we get the second down, second down. 132 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: The trade deadline came and went, and all quiet on 133 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: the North coast. Kareem Hunt remains to Cleveland brown general 134 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,359 Speaker 1: manager Andrew He said today the team came close to 135 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: acquiring a player, but it didn't come to fruition from 136 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: a compensation package standpoint. We'll get some players healthy here 137 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: hopefully during this by a week. Gerard, where do you 138 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: think of what are you thinking about the Browns death 139 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: chart right now as we go to week nine of 140 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: campaign and off week for the Cleveland Browns. Well right now, 141 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: really the main thing in which we have an issue 142 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: of bodies is tied in. I mean, Farrell Brown, to 143 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: his credit, played I felt with a little hitch to 144 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: his step, if you will, and he still went out 145 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: there and perform. But obviously getting David back hopefully a 146 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: few weeks or if not sooner, we'll play a key part. 147 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: But for the most part, I think we're relatively healthy. Denzel, 148 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: you would like to think we'll be back on the 149 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: football field force after this buy as well, you at 150 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: least crossing your fingers for that to take place. So 151 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: I think you could not have asked for a perfect 152 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: opportunity to have the bike in because you generally wanted 153 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: in the mid part of the season. That's exactly where 154 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 1: we have it at because this is pretty much where 155 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: you do sustain all the blows and all the soft 156 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: issue if you will, miss malaise, if you will, during 157 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: this time, because you've got eight weeks in and playing 158 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: football continuously. So you can't ask for a better time 159 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: to have a buy. And so I think that's gonna 160 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: catapult us because after this win, guys should be on 161 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: the buy saying the following, if I do this, if 162 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 1: I do that, based upon what I did against the 163 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: Bengals and based upon what we did as a team, 164 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 1: we can accomplish this and come back with a new 165 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 1: sense of energy and desire to get the job done. 166 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: That's a good times because it's a blessing right now weatherwise, 167 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 1: because the leaves are falling. It's a good time to 168 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: go get the leaves. It's a good time to go 169 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: put up the lights if you really wanted to. You 170 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:36,719 Speaker 1: don't need to turn them on yet, but it's a 171 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: good time to get those lights up.

Guess what I'm doing this weekend, 179 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: the lights. I'm getting up on the ladder and I'm 180 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: putting them lights up. Yeah, I know. And seeing me 181 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: up on a ladder, trust me, the ladder holds me. 182 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: People can't see giving me a face right now. Gerard's 183 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 1: not giving me a face. Gerard's respectful. Gerd. You can 184 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: give me a face if you want to. That's fine. 185 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: Everybody else in the room is alright. Time for third down, 186 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:26,679 Speaker 1: Third down. Andrew Berry was here, he'd be give me 187 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:28,319 Speaker 1: a face too. I'm getting up on the ladd. I'm 188 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: gonna put up the lights. It's time. Holiday season is 189 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,079 Speaker 1: coming around. I'm done fighting for turkeys. Turkeys had a 190 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: chance to fight for themselves. They didn't do it. All right, 191 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: Here we go, Andrew Berry. He had his mid season 192 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 1: press conference on Wednesday. A few highlights. Here we go. 193 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 1: Andrew Berry was asked if Monday's resolved changed his planning 194 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: or his thinking in any way. I would say that if, 195 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: if you know, candidly, probably maybe had a little bit 196 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: of a mile influenced Zack, I wouldn't say that it 197 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: it moved the needle significantly in one direction or another. 198 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: UM had probably a pretty good idea and terms of 199 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: you know, how we wanted to approach um, you know, 200 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: obviously yesterday with a with a couple of different opportunities, um, 201 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: you know. But but to suggest it didn't have any 202 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: some type of mild impact, I think would would be disingenuous. 203 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,679 Speaker 1: Last couple of games, defense has been good. Here's the 204 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: Andrew Barry's thoughts on the defense through the entire eight games, 205 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: including these last two, I think we've just played cleaner 206 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 1: on that side of the ball, you know, whether it's UM, 207 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 1: you know, mental assignments, communication. I think our tackling has improved, um, 208 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: you know over the past really over the past two 209 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 1: weeks as well. And I you know, that's where i'd 210 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: give you know, Joe and the defensive staff, you know, 211 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: a lot of credit for um, you know, really kind 212 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 1: of focusing on and and kind of hiring out some 213 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: of those UM areas where we didn't do them quite 214 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: as well UM through the early part of the season. 215 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 1: So UM, that'side. The ball seems to be to be 216 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: rounding into form, but you know, we still have work 217 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 1: to do. UM. And ultimately, the you know, the biggest 218 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 1: thing again is consistency. There We've all had different definitions 219 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: going into the year and half week through the year, 220 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 1: but what would make this a successful season? To Andrew Berry, ultimately, 221 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: it's it's really just maximizing our potential on playing consistent 222 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: football in the second half of the year. Look, we 223 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 1: we understand that, um. You know, at the end of 224 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: the day, like you know, we do have to produce wins, like, 225 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 1: that's that's our mindset and that's our goal, um, and 226 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 1: that's how that's the mindset that we're gonna take into 227 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: the next nine games. Do you like what you hear 228 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: from the Browns General manager there Gan? Oh? Absolutely love 229 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: it because that has to be the perspective and thinking 230 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,439 Speaker 1: about what if you did make some changes, like a 231 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: lot of people were talking about Kareem Hunt no longer 232 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: being on the roster and being a potential trade. If 233 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: you win that game, that sends the worst message to 234 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,319 Speaker 1: your locker room far as are you serious and committed 235 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: to the idea of creating a winning coach and winning 236 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: games if you let go one of your best players. 237 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 1: And on top of that, he's absolutely right in regards 238 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 1: to the defense come into form. And obviously we wish 239 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,199 Speaker 1: that form would have happened coming into rather four or 240 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,040 Speaker 1: five weeks ago, but it's not the case. But I 241 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,839 Speaker 1: love what I am seeing now. Alright, time for fourth down? 242 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: Fourth down? All right? We take a look at the 243 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 1: f C North through eight games, plenty of opportunities for 244 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: the Browns to make a playoff push within their own division. 245 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,680 Speaker 1: The Ravens there five and three, two and oh in 246 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: the North. The Bengals are four and four, but they're 247 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: all in three in the a f C North. The 248 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:23,599 Speaker 1: Browns are three and five. They're two and one in 249 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 1: the f C North, the Steelers two and six and 250 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 1: one and one in the a f C North. The 251 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: Steelers were kind of sellers, but they went out and 252 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 1: they got themselves a cornerback that they wanted in the draft, 253 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: but he was drafted a pick before and they ended 254 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: up taking already Burns in that draft, and so they 255 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: went out and traded for him from the Washington Commanders, 256 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: and they ended up getting a pick back, but they 257 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 1: ended up trading goodness gracious, got a second round pick 258 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: for Chase clay Man. I see trades like that in 259 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 1: the movies. I see I honestly, I've only see trades 260 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 1: like that draft day. I mean, if you're a Bears 261 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: fan right now, forget it. We're talking about the Browns here. Um, 262 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 1: there is an opportunity here, like because I was like, well, 263 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: you're looking at a wild card, and there were fans going, well, 264 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,440 Speaker 1: you are two and one in the North. Can if 265 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: there's a couple of injuries or the ball bounces your way. 266 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 1: There there's some there's a chance to make Hey, those 267 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 1: fans are right. You gotta get some things going here 268 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: during this by week and then after the bi week obviously, Grid, 269 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: but there is a chance. There's a glean certain there 270 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:29,199 Speaker 1: is with that victory that opens up so many opportunities 271 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: far as looking at the division, and again, if you 272 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,680 Speaker 1: go ahead and win say the next nine games, yeah, 273 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: I gotta feeling you'll make the playoffs. So twelve and 274 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: five record will get you in being a wild card 275 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: or probably winning your division. But obviously take care of 276 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: your division because that's the surest way of you to 277 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 1: get into the playoffs.

I know we've always believed 339 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 1: in yourself, but just the progress in the fact you're 340 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: doing weekend week out against some of the best in 341 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 1: the league. Yeah, it's a blessing. You know, just have 342 00:16:55,760 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: been a situation. But me honestly, I feel like, um, 343 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 1: I could perform, you know, at a harder level. So 344 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: you know, I just want to hold myself to a 345 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 1: high standard, you know, and it's it's been a blessing 346 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 1: to make the players that I have, and I feel 347 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 1: like I'm moving towards the right direction. I don't know 348 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: why teams throw it you on fourth down anymore. I mean, 349 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:16,119 Speaker 1: Mike Williams, Nope, sorry, Tyler Boyd nope sorry. What is 350 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: it about those money plays that gets you going? Oh man, 351 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 1: it's money now? So we always say get off the field, 352 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 1: you know, and big plays. So I try to make 353 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: a big play, you know, whenever I can. And uh yeah, 354 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 1: just got at the feeling win two p bus I'm 355 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: gonna say three because you got your hands on another one. 356 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,399 Speaker 1: Now the ball continued along it's path. You almost were 357 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: able to get on the one that ended up being 358 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: a touchdown, almost getting you almost took that right out 359 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,439 Speaker 1: of the air right there. But are you kind of 360 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 1: seeing the games that slowed down for you where you're 361 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: seeing it better because it feels like you're getting your 362 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,400 Speaker 1: hands on the ball every single week now. Oh yes, sir, 363 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 1: I feel like the game is slowing down, you know, 364 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: just um during the week, honestly, just preparation, you know, 365 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: knowing your job, knowing your sponsibilities, and uh just watch 366 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: the film more too. So I hate the books like 367 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: way more. I used to watch like thirty minute the day. 368 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: I try to watch likely spot or five hours, So 369 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: are there stuff like in the game. Has ever been 370 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: a play where you're like, I saw that you did it, 371 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: and you're like, that's why, that's why I do that exactly, 372 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 1: you know, formation and just you know kind of anticipated, 373 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: but you know sometimes it might not happen because no offense. 374 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 1: You know, they get paid a lot of money, you know, 375 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: to round Rolse and switched things up. So but I 376 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 1: try to, like I tried to watch film and just 377 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 1: like pick up clues and if I see it and 378 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,360 Speaker 1: just we're at What was it like going into this one? 379 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,160 Speaker 1: Pre game? You knew you didn't have Denzel, we weren't 380 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 1: even sure about Greg and if he did play, how 381 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: much he would be able to play? And of course 382 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,879 Speaker 1: the set Greedy was sick, so you knew that you 383 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: were going to be very busy in this one. It 384 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:44,959 Speaker 1: ended up that, you know, Greedy was able to go 385 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 1: a j stepped in, and then Greg played the whole 386 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 1: game because he's a beast. That's right, You're both you 387 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 1: guys are beasts. What was kind of your mindset going 388 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,199 Speaker 1: into this one, going against the team that, while they 389 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: didn't have Jamar Chase still one of the best passing 390 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 1: offenses in the NFL. He still had two guys well 391 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: on pace for over a thousand yards and Boyd and Higgins. 392 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 1: What was kind of your mentality is it's an opportunity 393 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 1: for you to put out some of that tape and 394 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: and show the league in the world on Monday Night 395 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 1: football who you are. It's their prime time Monday night football. 396 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,399 Speaker 1: Grin Grint's a great offense, you know, a powerful offense 397 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 1: just came off of eight yard passing games. So it 398 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 1: was a challenge, you know, coach, challenge is all weekend, 399 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 1: and they told us that we will have to win 400 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:22,439 Speaker 1: the game in the secred day. You know, it just 401 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 1: flot to the ball and I feel like he stept 402 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 1: up to the plane and did a good job. You 403 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: certainly did. What did What did the coach Howard and 404 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 1: coach Lynch had to say to you? Great? Good coach? 405 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 1: Coach didn't say a great game, chump. I'm very proud 406 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 1: of you. And coach you know, he always just tell 407 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 1: him he believes in me. But he just said go 408 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 1: out with confidence. He just do my job. So shout 409 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 1: out to those guys. They know you're a competitor and 410 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: you're gonna bring it and get after it and then 411 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 1: you did. Was there a little banter between you guys 412 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:49,200 Speaker 1: and the receivers in this oneer? Uh yeah, I felt 413 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 1: the animosity you know against us and then but it 414 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,159 Speaker 1: was kind of like cool to me, kind of, I 415 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: guess I'll rookie, what you know, he's trying my brother 416 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,440 Speaker 1: to trying me so and it was fun though it 417 00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: was a great game. What's changed the last two weeks? 418 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 1: This defense guys put together a great performance against Baltimore 419 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 1: and then this one against Cincinnati. Feels like you guys 420 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: are just kind of like turned the page and are 421 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: now every week making places and making like very hard 422 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 1: on offenses and especially quarterbacks. I would say, well, second day, 423 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 1: I would say preparation. You know, we're trying to try 424 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 1: to watch more firm every week, so we have like 425 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 1: a homework homework. I guess we'll say we just we 426 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 1: have our own section of the playbook or the players 427 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 1: they run formation tips, and we'll just come in every 428 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 1: Friday and just tell each other and we'll make notes 429 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,360 Speaker 1: and that help.

Actually, the Pittsburgh Steelers on the 496 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 1: big winner here. They got a second round draft pick 497 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 1: for god oh no, think about from Meran troyd oh no, 498 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:52,679 Speaker 1: not Grint. I'm not draft pick guy. I'm all about 499 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 1: proven talent over potential talent. But I must say that 500 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 1: is a fleecing on the part of the Pittsburgh Steelers 501 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,719 Speaker 1: to get a second round draft pick for Claypool. Come on, 502 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 1: the numbers don't suggest that whatsoever that he married the 503 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 1: second round draft pick now, let alone a fIF for 504 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 1: six round draft pick. That's huge. You're right, I mean, 505 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: I mean, but that's that's but that's not on the field. Now, 506 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 1: if you asked me on the field, and I'm gonna say, 507 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 1: probably Bratley Chub, take your pick Bratley Chub Smith. I 508 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 1: can see him have an impact. And obviously Hockenson is 509 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 1: gonna help the campaign for the Vikings. All right, let's 510 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,919 Speaker 1: see here, Miami is still weak on the interior, but 511 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 1: they're great on the bookheads. Okay, the Vikings, the Vikings. 512 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:41,640 Speaker 1: It's so weird because I made this joke before. Kirk 513 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 1: Cousins to me is leftover pot roast. My dad's a 514 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: butcher right here, he was, he's and he so my 515 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,400 Speaker 1: dad worked at a grocery store for forty one years 516 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: and meat right, and so basically everything was a meat okay, 517 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,040 Speaker 1: you always had you always there was always beef. It 518 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,959 Speaker 1: was like we never had we never had Chinese night 519 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 1: in my house. It was always beef okay. It was 520 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: always beef for chicken or pork or something right. And 521 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 1: so there was times where there was times where my 522 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,400 Speaker 1: dad would be like, hey, go get the go, get 523 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: the left over roast out the fridge. And I'd be like, man, 524 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 1: and I'd pull it out and I'd open up the 525 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 1: tupper ware and I'd open it up and you get 526 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 1: that smell of that cold pot roast. So there's that 527 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 1: gravy on and that gravy, that gravy is all jelly. 528 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:32,920 Speaker 1: And I would just give it like that look and 529 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 1: just like and he'd be looking at me to go, 530 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 1: I'll never my dad, what's a mat of boy, that's 531 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 1: good eating? And that's that is Kirk Cousins. That is 532 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: Kirk because you watch Kirk Cousins, you watch Kirk Cousins Gerard, 533 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 1: and you sit there and go, what is everybody talking 534 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: about with this guy? What is everybody saying with this guy? 535 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: And then you look at the stats and it's like 536 00:25:55,280 --> 00:26:00,040 Speaker 1: three thirty yards, three touchdowns, no picks, they win, and 537 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,440 Speaker 1: you're going, how how what is he doing? How is 538 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:06,919 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins good? I don't understand it. You watched the 539 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: Vikings and you were bored to tears, and then you 540 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 1: see his stats and you go, I don't I don't 541 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 1: understand it. When your dad was finished at the mill table, 542 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,199 Speaker 1: did he ask you did you like that? Did you 543 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: like that? No? He told me to clear the table, 544 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 1: and then he up a pack of cigarettes and then 545 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,679 Speaker 1: he pulled one out and then that would be it. 546 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: That's how it went down. He doesn't smoke anymore. My 547 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 1: deck could smoke it a long time ago. Yeah. But uh, 548 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead and agree with you. I'll say that. 549 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 1: I'll say, uh, yeah, the the pick for Chase Claypool, 550 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: that's a fleeing, I mean grand larceny. I mean he 551 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 1: was he Yeah, it was. Did you see him. He's 552 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: a six five monster, six four six five, And when 553 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 1: you watched him his rookie years, gerade like, didn't he 554 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 1: look like he? I was like, man, this guy's gonna 555 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,879 Speaker 1: be a problem was two years ago. This guy is 556 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: gonna be for yeah, exactly, my goodness, gracious all right. 557 00:26:56,240 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 1: Washington Commander's co owners Dance Center and Taniel Snyder have 558 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,399 Speaker 1: an ounce that they have hired Bank of America Securities 559 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 1: to explore potential transactions involving the team. So there was 560 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 1: something to the Colts. Owner Jim Er says comments that 561 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 1: the owners meeting a few weeks ago looks like they 562 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 1: may sell. Draw your thoughts. It looks like the club 563 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 1: is saying we won't no longer desire your membership and 564 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 1: forcing the hand because I'm pretty sure, based on what's 565 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 1: been going on, that they have some type of type 566 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 1: of leverage and power to do just that. And so 567 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 1: for that to be floated out there is not by accident, 568 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,679 Speaker 1: and I'm pretty sure they're gonna be People line up 569 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 1: to buy because I heard something crazy today. Is it true? 570 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 1: You may know, Kim, is it three thirty million or 571 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: three hundred million dollars? Only when an NFL team makes well, 572 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 1: I mean I know it's gotta be at least thirty 573 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,239 Speaker 1: oh thirty Well, as far as they make, I'm not 574 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,439 Speaker 1: sure right now. So I heard an astronomical number. I 575 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 1: was like, that's one heck of return on your investment, 576 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 1: even if you are to n pay five billion. Problems 577 00:27:58,040 --> 00:27:59,919 Speaker 1: for the commanders to think about what each team may 578 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 1: just in terms of the television deal. But then we 579 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 1: always have to think about the outgoing money. And we 580 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 1: always just because all of us just look at the 581 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,160 Speaker 1: salary cap and we just think of the salary capital. 582 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:13,159 Speaker 1: Salary cap. Yeah, I mean you look at the you 583 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: look at the staff, the insurance, the cost just to 584 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:20,160 Speaker 1: turn the lights on, to make heat on is certainly 585 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 1: a lot of money. But again, no owner. I don't 586 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 1: think any owner would look at you and say, oh, 587 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: I'm broke. I obviously they wouldn't do that there. So, 588 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 1: I mean, you have a team that's valued right now 589 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 1: at five point six billion dollars, and that's a team 590 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 1: that has a stadium that is I mean quite literally, yeah, dilapidated, 591 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 1: quite literally falling apart. Um Our producer Meredith is from 592 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: the Beltway area. Tell you, yeah that it is it 593 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,959 Speaker 1: is not in the very best condition whatsoever. So whoever, 594 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 1: the best radio you could ever find a Literally, have 595 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 1: you kid in a catacorner looking at an angle to 596 00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: the football film. I'm pretty sure there's someplace you simply 597 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 1: can't can't see. Really really, it's like, thanks, we're looking 598 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: at the radio broadcast, I know. I mean, we're we're 599 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 1: about to have Jim Donovan on coming up, and we 600 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 1: got to talk to him about it. It's it's fascinating. 601 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 1: He'll be the one who will tell you they can't 602 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 1: build a new stadium for the Bears fast enough because 603 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 1: you they punt that ball, you can't see the ball, 604 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 1: he says. You can't if depending on if they throw 605 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: along pass, you can't see the ball. You can't see it. 606 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 1: They're depending on how the where the ball goes. You 607 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 1: just you lose sight of things there. Which young quarterback 608 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: do you feel has the best chance to turn their 609 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: careers around, earn their careers around? Zach Wilson with the Jets, 610 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: Are Trevor Lawrence with the Jacks. I'm taking Trevor Lawrence. 611 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 1: I'm taking Trevor as well, simply put, because of his 612 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 1: head coach, who was a former quarterback in the NFL 613 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 1: and has won a Super Bowl. So Peterson knows how 614 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 1: to develop guys, and so Carson Witton, Carson wentz played 615 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 1: his best ball with you, Peterson. So I didn't Laurence 616 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 1: to make that same adjustment as well. I didn't like 617 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 1: the I didn't like the reason for taking Zach Wilson 618 00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: where people are like, oh, he's good and chaos, he's 619 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 1: in chaos. And I said, I said this to you 620 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 1: back then on this network during these shows. I said, 621 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 1: you want to take a guy and keep him protected. 622 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 1: You don't need like, well we we we yes, things 623 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 1: will get squirrely back there. It's the NFL. Yes, it's 624 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: gonna get difficult. But you don't want to sit there 625 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 1: and say, well, he's good in chaos there, Well, what's 626 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: what what does he do when you have a clean pocket, 627 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: because he's not good with a clean pocket and his 628 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 1: poor decision making Because somebody, somebody who was it, I 629 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 1: can't describe. I don't want to describe the quote to 630 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 1: it because I don't want to. I don't want to 631 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,479 Speaker 1: misquote somebody there about the way that that Zach Wilson 632 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: was playing against the against the New England Patriots the 633 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: other day. Which quarterback has taken the biggest step forward 634 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: through eight games, Geno Smith or Jalen Hurts. I'm like 635 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 1: fan by a long shot of actually touting him for 636 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 1: m v P. But this Geno Smith, without a shallow 637 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,480 Speaker 1: of a doubt. Geno Smith last year couldn't win a 638 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: football game and save his life. Gino Smith is thrown 639 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 1: with accuracy. He is throwing the prettiest of passes and 640 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: if you look at the numbers, it backs it up well. 641 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 1: And he's doing one of better jobs in the National 642 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: Football League from a quarterback and standpoint. And it is 643 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 1: not just game management Ken, this is like shots down 644 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 1: the field Geno Smith Gino. First off, Gino has not 645 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 1: saved the reputation, but rebounded the reputation to Pete Carroll. 646 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 1: People were starting to think Pete Carroll lost. Yeah, people 647 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: are starting to think Pete was a bit of a 648 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 1: crazy old man. I mean he's over seventy years old 649 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: and people are starting to think that Pete was exactly 650 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 1: what you just said, lost it. Uh. Now he's starting 651 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 1: to look crazy like a fox. Uh. Mixed with that defense, 652 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 1: Geno Smith's looking great because Jalen Hurts. I always liked 653 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts. I never liked Gino Smith. I never liked him. 654 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna take I'm gonna say Gino Smith definitely 655 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: with you, um best rookie Coachway games, Brian Dable or 656 00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 1: Kevin O'Connell, you gotta give the connal. I'm gonn look 657 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 1: what the Vigons are doing there. How are you not 658 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 1: giving to him? I'm amos. I'm gonna say, Brian Dable, Yeah, 659 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 1: I think you wrong, is doing tremendously. Consider what he's 660 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 1: working with your I think they had a better set 661 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 1: up with the Vikings. I think they had I know 662 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 1: that things can get a little toxic any time you 663 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 1: fire coach things aren't going well, and they let go 664 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: Mike Zimmer. But man, you look at the toxic situation 665 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 1: that Brian Dable had taken over, and frankly, you and 666 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 1: I saw that up close last year when they came 667 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 1: to visit as we did, and he took that situation over, 668 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,239 Speaker 1: and hey, they got a long way to go, and 669 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 1: it might be some of it might be smoking mirrors 670 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 1: to this day. Mrs Carmin will tell you, like he 671 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 1: does not like leftovers. It's all because of his daddy. 672 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 1: It's all because his daddy. All right. Coming up next, 673 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,480 Speaker 1: Jim Donovan will join us on the show The Voice 674 00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 1: Here Cleveland Browns will go over the first half of 675 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 1: the season, will recap the big win on Monday Night 676 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 1: against the Bengal said, will look forward to the second 677 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: half of the campaign. You're listening to the Cleveland Browns 678 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 1: preview show on the University Hospitals Cleveland Browns Radio Network. 679 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 1: This is the Cleveland Browns Preview Show on the University 680 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 1: Hospitals Cleveland Browns Radio Network. Here are your hosts, Kim 681 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:24,959 Speaker 1: Kerman and Gerard Jerry. It's the by week for your 682 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns. Next week they'll go down to Miami Miami Gardens, 683 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 1: Florida to be exact, at hard Rock Stadium and take 684 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 1: on the Dolphins. Gerade Cherry, Gerard, you have you been 685 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 1: to the renovated stadium down there? Yes, I have been there. Yes, 686 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 1: I have been down there. I've I've driven through there, 687 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,320 Speaker 1: so I have seen it and it looks really nice 688 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 1: and I think it's a great idea. You still keep 689 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 1: that elment of heat though you're blocking out the fans 690 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 1: from the sun, but from a player, you still have 691 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 1: to jest to us. So it's not quite the sense 692 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 1: of field that you get to be an indoor So 693 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 1: that's pretty smart on their part to take advantage of 694 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 1: the heating humidity. It's gonna be interesting here because you've 695 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 1: got if you're in Cleveland, I know a lot of 696 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 1: players are gonna probably go home over the weekend. Like 697 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 1: you heard him, j Emerson, He's gonna go to Houston, 698 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 1: and it's certainly warm in Houston, but you go to Miami, 699 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 1: it'll be warm in Miami. But here in Cleveland, Gerard, 700 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:16,719 Speaker 1: it's it's gonna be seven, like high seventies in Cleveland. 701 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 1: Then you go to Miami, and then you go to Buffalo, 702 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:23,799 Speaker 1: and you're gonna have this weird contrast of weather because yeah, 703 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 1: so who knows what's really gonna happen. And then you'll 704 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:27,560 Speaker 1: be back home. You'll be taking on the Buccaneers. Let's 705 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 1: talk to Jim Donovan about everything over the first half 706 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 1: the the bill, the excuse Me, the Bengals game, and 707 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:34,840 Speaker 1: then everything to come up over the second half The 708 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 1: Voice here Cleveland Browns. Jim Donovan joins us on the show. Jim, 709 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 1: good evening to you. Good evening Cannon Gerard, good to 710 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: be with you. First things first, Gerard said that the 711 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: stadium FedEx Field, the radio booth is a little bit rough, 712 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 1: and I said, well, we gotta ask Jim when he 713 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,440 Speaker 1: comes on. Jim's laughing, so Jim is probably right. Jim 714 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:01,320 Speaker 1: probably can confirm this is that true. It is the worst, 715 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:05,160 Speaker 1: Ken It is the absolute worst. The stadium I believe 716 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 1: is in I think technically the stadium is in the 717 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:12,719 Speaker 1: land Over, Maryland, and the booth I believe is in Baltimore, Maryland. 718 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:16,240 Speaker 1: Who actually called the game. It is the worst radio 719 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,439 Speaker 1: boots going. It is. You are away in the back 720 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 1: of the end zone and they have advertising that hangs 721 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,440 Speaker 1: down kind of over the window of the booths, so 722 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 1: you have to you have to really pull your head 723 00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 1: outside the booth and crane your neck to even see 724 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 1: a long pass or a punt or a kick to 725 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 1: kind of get the direction of where it's going. It 726 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 1: is the worst, the absolute worst. Well, that sounds like 727 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:45,239 Speaker 1: a whole lot of fun, and I think that's coming 728 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,840 Speaker 1: up sixteen or week seventeen before the end of the season, 729 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:52,080 Speaker 1: so that's not gonna be great for for everybody involved. 730 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:54,399 Speaker 1: I you guys have my prayers when you guys head 731 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 1: on over there to land over even though you'll be 732 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:59,839 Speaker 1: doing the game from Baltimore there. Uh, Jim, the game, 733 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,719 Speaker 1: the game against the Bengals, I mean, Monday night. Just 734 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 1: it didn't solve everything, but it certainly felt good to 735 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: get that type of a win. Everybody showing up and 736 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:13,840 Speaker 1: just about everybody playing and playing well for this football team. 737 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 1: You know, it really was it was. It was great. 738 00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 1: It was great all across the board. Um. You know, 739 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 1: it was a complete team win, which I think was terrific. 740 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 1: And you know we've been waiting for that, so I 741 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 1: think that was fantastic. Um. You know, considering the opponent 742 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,319 Speaker 1: who came in red hot, um, I think we were 743 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:35,040 Speaker 1: all wondering, is when is this going to appear? Or 744 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:36,880 Speaker 1: is it going to appear? Are they ever going to 745 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:39,799 Speaker 1: put it all together? And they definitely did in the game. 746 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,880 Speaker 1: I thought the atmosphere in the stadium was fantastic. I 747 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: thought the crowd was fantastic. It's just the perfect night. 748 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:50,319 Speaker 1: I mean, everything from start to finish went perfectly. And 749 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 1: now you just hope that you can you can duplicate 750 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: that and you can continue to play like that. I 751 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 1: think that's the next big question, guys, is all right, 752 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:01,879 Speaker 1: is this a one game a deal or is this 753 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: a turn the corner moment? Is this the real team 754 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,759 Speaker 1: that we really had such high hopes for throughout the 755 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 1: spring and the summer and training camp leading into September, 756 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: It's been a turn in the corner, Jim. One of 757 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 1: the things during that four game losing streak rather that 758 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 1: was on full display was the poor tackling. I am 759 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 1: convinced what I saw on Monday night was one of 760 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 1: the better tackling efforts of the defense that I've seen 761 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 1: a very long time. Agree, Yes, most definitely, because we've 762 00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 1: seen a lot of mistackles, There's no doubt about that. 763 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 1: And you know, really, Gerade, you go league wide, really, 764 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,319 Speaker 1: if you watch any other game, I mean, you'll see 765 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 1: an array of mis tackles and flailing attempts and poor technique. 766 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 1: I mean, everything was just perfect on as far as 767 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:49,879 Speaker 1: technique was concerned, and there were a lot of plays 768 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 1: early on, and I'm sure that Cincinnati, you know, had 769 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,480 Speaker 1: some designs on it. And maybe it was because of 770 00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:58,720 Speaker 1: the subtraction of Jamaar Chase not being in the lineup 771 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 1: that they said Hey, listen, we have to account for 772 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,959 Speaker 1: his loss a different way. And I thought they tried 773 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,640 Speaker 1: to give the ball, especially to Joe Mixon out in 774 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 1: space and let him beat the would be tackler that 775 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 1: the Browns would send his way, and he was never 776 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 1: able to do it. He was never able to do 777 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 1: it out in the flat. He was never able to 778 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 1: do it really, you know, trying to take a running 779 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 1: play wide or anything like that. I just, uh, I 780 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,400 Speaker 1: thought it was exceptional the way they played and the 781 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 1: way they tackled, and the basic fundamental of doing that 782 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 1: I think got them going defensively. And Jim Poe's game. 783 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:35,399 Speaker 1: A lot of players talked about and thank Joe Wood 784 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,879 Speaker 1: for the scheme that he came up with impairs meaning 785 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,960 Speaker 1: obviously that we had the Bengals number. What do you 786 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:42,799 Speaker 1: think is about that? Is the one these things was 787 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 1: this's a mental situation or is just that we are 788 00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:47,120 Speaker 1: designed to beat the Bengals and we do what we're 789 00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:51,239 Speaker 1: designed to do. Yeah, I I you know, Gerard, I 790 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 1: think that basically, I think that they've done it now 791 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 1: a couple of times, and I think it's a confidence 792 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 1: factor that they go into the game. I think they 793 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 1: approach a game against the Bengals, and they feel good 794 00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 1: about themselves, and they've got a lot of good history 795 00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:06,319 Speaker 1: and a lot of good tape and film to back 796 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,919 Speaker 1: it up, and so I think they go in with 797 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: more of a hey, listen, we know how to do this. 798 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 1: We've done this before. Maybe we can do it a 799 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:16,840 Speaker 1: little bit better. But I mean, we really have the 800 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 1: scheme downpat of what it takes to beat them, because 801 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 1: it's really the it's the same thing, you know, it's 802 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:25,720 Speaker 1: the same personnel. It's Joe Burrow, it's Mixing, It's Boyd, 803 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,879 Speaker 1: it's you know, t Higgins, Uh, it's Hayden Hurst, It's 804 00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 1: all of those guys. That's the cast of characters minus 805 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 1: tomar Chase. But I mean, and and they know how 806 00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:35,759 Speaker 1: to line up against them, and they do a very 807 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 1: good job. And I think they've had some really good 808 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,920 Speaker 1: defensive performances against them. Um, and I think that, you know, 809 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 1: that's what they have to do now. I mean, they 810 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: have to really duplicate this and this feeling and this 811 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,360 Speaker 1: preparation level that I think they had going into that 812 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:53,880 Speaker 1: game on Monday night. They have to do that beginning 813 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 1: in preparation from Miami. And if they're gonna make a 814 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:59,839 Speaker 1: run now, and they've left themselves the opportunity to do 815 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 1: at This is the way they're gonna have to play, 816 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,960 Speaker 1: but they have a great, great, you know, example of 817 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 1: how to do it. And what is at the end 818 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 1: of a great performance like that, a very very convincing win. Jim, 819 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 1: We thank you very much for the time. We'll talk 820 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 1: to you next week.

Gerard, it's been eight weeks. Your 840 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:11,600 Speaker 1: thoughts on the first day weeks as the Browns going 841 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 1: to the bye week three and five, A lot of 842 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 1: work to do, but a positive as they got that 843 00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:19,719 Speaker 1: big Monday night win against the Cincinnati Bengals. Missed opportunities 844 00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,360 Speaker 1: is what you think of. We look great on paper 845 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,120 Speaker 1: as a roster, and what you saw last week and 846 00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:26,359 Speaker 1: even lead into the Baltimore game was this team starting 847 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 1: to come into its own and I believe that it 848 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 1: culminated on Monday night. But obviously we had to keep 849 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:33,400 Speaker 1: going because what took place early on the year with 850 00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 1: the loss of the Jets, the loss of the Charges, 851 00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:37,120 Speaker 1: and heck, any of the losses in which we were 852 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 1: in control could hunt us. But we're in the spot 853 00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:41,719 Speaker 1: now where simply, guys are gonna have to just step up. 854 00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:43,800 Speaker 1: You're in this bye week. It couldn't come in a 855 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,839 Speaker 1: perfect time, a chance for you to really understand where 856 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,759 Speaker 1: you are as a player, what commitments you need to 857 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:51,560 Speaker 1: recommit to to get the job done on an individual 858 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:53,840 Speaker 1: and collective level. And this is the perfect time to 859 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 1: do that because they saw on Monday night Ken that 860 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:59,240 Speaker 1: when they put it all together, they're very formidable football team. 861 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:05,279 Speaker 1: Sunday off any NFL or college games on Saturday? Are 862 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,880 Speaker 1: you so college games on Saturday? In NFL games on 863 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:10,799 Speaker 1: Sunday are you looking to take in? Oh?

And 867 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 1: they are? They Josh Hypel's offense. I tell you, At 868 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 1: first I was like, well, I think they'll be entertained 869 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,440 Speaker 1: by that offense because you know, it's like, well that 870 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:30,200 Speaker 1: this is an interesting higher. But the offense is good. 871 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:32,759 Speaker 1: And at least the offense is good because in in 872 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 1: the college game, you need offense. So they'll be okay 873 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 1: at least a little bit. They're blowing the doors off everybody. 874 00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 1: And I'm not just talking about the Alabama game where 875 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:43,360 Speaker 1: they obviously they scored and they won with the final 876 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,520 Speaker 1: field goal.
