1
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:12,120
Speaker 1: Good afternoon from the Dog Bowl in Burrilla, Ohio. Day

2
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 1: one of the two thousand nineteen Cleveland Browns training camp

3
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 1: is in the books. I'm Jason Gibbs, He's Andrew Gribble,

4
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,599
Speaker 1: he's Nick Shook. With a little sunscreen on today and

5
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 1: this is the best podcast available. Day one training camp

6
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 1: recap and coming up you'll hear from Odell Beckham Jr.

7
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 1: We'll give you our game balls, will throw out a

8
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:37,559
Speaker 1: number of things here in the next thirty minutes. We'll

9
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 1: recap you on everything that went down here in Burrilla

10
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 1: today and get you ready for Day two on Friday,

11
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 1: another day with no pads, but a day closer to contact,

12
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 1: which we like. And I think there was plenty of

13
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 1: contact today. Actually, by the way, a little extrac extracurricular

14
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: activity going on early in practice. Maybe some guys new

15
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 1: to the league or new to this environment don't necessarily

16
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 1: understand that without pads, it's not a pcent full go.

17
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:08,400
Speaker 1: It's more like fifties. Hey, you get excited pretty easily

18
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: out there. And there's this is a there's there's fewer

19
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 1: roster spots open on this team than we're used to seeing.

20
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 1: There's guys fighting out there. They know that there's a

21
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 1: big sector of guys in this team know that they

22
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 1: have long odds to get there. And I think that

23
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 1: you you're gonna go out and try to impress on

24
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: every single rep that you're out there. And I think

25
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 1: coaches like to see that. But to an extent, you

26
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 1: don't wanna you don't want to damage the merchandise, like say,

27
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: you don't want to get Like there was a play

28
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 1: out there today where Baker was scrambling. I'm and I

29
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: was just like, why don't they just blow this play dead,

30
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 1: like just so we don't need to see this, Like,

31
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 1: let's just stop it now. But they let those plays

32
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,039
Speaker 1: kind of filter out. But it's it's it's just the

33
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 1: mentality because you don't want accidents to happen like that.

34
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 1: It would never no one intentionally hurt one of these players.

35
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 1: But when you're out there, you can channel, Yeah, you

36
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: can channel your inner whatever it is that makes you

37
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 1: a good football player. And and and all of a

38
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 1: sudden you did something bad that you get caught off

39
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 1: balance or something like that. Today we saw I believe this,

40
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 1: Derrick Willias catch a touchdown pass and as he stepped

41
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 1: into the end zone. We saw Sheldrick RedWine Chinda trying

42
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 1: to pull up, and as he pulled up, Derek ran

43
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,799
Speaker 1: into him. And because red Wine was off balance and

44
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 1: was you know, just kind of slowing down, he got

45
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 1: drilled right in the chest and flattened under the ground.

46
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 1: You know. I mean, it's just that's what happens. It's

47
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: incidental contact, and it's just the speed of the game. Yeah,

48
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: no question about it. Is the overall and the twenty

49
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: one consecutive season. The team is holding training camp at

50
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns Training and Administrative Complex here in Maria.

51
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 1: In the Dog Bowl coming up again. As I mentioned,

52
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 1: you'll hear from Odell Beckham Jr. You'll hear from Baker

53
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: Mayfield as well. Right now, though, guys, um, I need

54
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: a big takeaway, one big takeaway from each one of

55
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 1: you after today's workoffs. I'm going first because I'm gonna

56
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: take Odell Beckham Jr. He's really good. He lived up

57
00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: to the hype. It was just it was just neat

58
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,239
Speaker 1: to see even before. I mean clearly the sequence or

59
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: he made back to back catches on the sideline was fantastic.

60
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: Had a touchdown later in the practice, where he really

61
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 1: just ran a stem route that just left Denzel Ward

62
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 1: kind of flat footed out there, and it just was

63
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: he was just wide open, uh, and just showed you

64
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: what he what he can do on the field. But

65
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: it was just neat to I think it was all

66
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: the first place in eleven elevens where him and Jarvis

67
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 1: were literally right next to each other and then Jarvis

68
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: like kind of moved out in motion. But you know,

69
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 1: we were here last year and just going nuts over

70
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: the fact that the Browns had like a real wide

71
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 1: receiver on this team in Jarvis Landry, like a legitimate

72
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 1: guy that was gonna make it impressive catches, practiced really hard, uh,

73
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: and it rubbed off on a lot of guys, and

74
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: now all of a sudden, Jarvis is like that, it's

75
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: Tim and O'Dell like it's it's it's two of the

76
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: best wide receivers in the NFL on the field together.

77
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: And that's when you kind of realized this is real.

78
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: This is what you have on offense, and you you

79
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 1: really are wondering, how are all these guys gonna get involved?

80
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 1: I think we shall start Higgins make a few plays

81
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 1: with the first team. You saw Duke Johnson make a

82
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 1: number of plays with the first team on little dump passes.

83
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: So this is an offense with a lot of weapons.

84
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: And just to see Odell in front of a crowd

85
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: the first day with a crowd here, Uh, it just

86
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: showed you what we can expect in September, just the

87
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 1: popularity that this team has with some of the star

88
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 1: players that they've acquired in the last couple of years.

89
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: It's funny because you know, all this attention is paid

90
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: to Odell and we all know everything that he brings

91
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 1: to the table, or at least we are aware of

92
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 1: his stardom, and that is of course rooted in his

93
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,919
Speaker 1: ability to play the game of football. But until you

94
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:38,359
Speaker 1: see it on the field, and you see it in

95
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: eleven on eleven, it never really quite hits you. But

96
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 1: then once it does happen in front of you, like

97
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: it did today, you know, you say, it's now it's

98
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 1: Jarvis and O'Dell. Well, it's O'Dell and Jarvis. And because

99
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 1: everyone's all a sudden turned to looking at O'Dell and

100
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: watching you make these incredible catches and nobody's even got

101
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 1: any pads on. He's blowing by guys, and he's he's

102
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,919
Speaker 1: winning the close matchups as well. Terence Mitchell had some

103
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: really good coverage on him and two back to back

104
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,839
Speaker 1: really good receptions early in this practice. So you pay

105
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 1: all of this attention to that, and then all of

106
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,039
Speaker 1: a sudden, Drovis Landry is right there catching a pass

107
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:07,839
Speaker 1: underneath or going down the scene. We're catching a pass

108
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,160
Speaker 1: down the sideline and he's beating his man and these

109
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: are good defenders. And that's when you realize, oh my,

110
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 1: is this receiving corps very talented. I mean, you had

111
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: a guy like Antuona Callawy couldn't get a rep with

112
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: the first team offense today. That was a starting receiver

113
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 1: on your team for the majority of this season, and

114
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: he's really good. He's gonna play a lot this season,

115
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 1: but that with the way things are lined up today,

116
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 1: he's at the second team And I don't want to

117
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 1: short change Denzel Award today because despite O'Dell having a

118
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,719
Speaker 1: couple of really good grabs and O'Dell having a good day,

119
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 1: Denzel Award looked pretty darn good today. No, he's confident,

120
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 1: and I think he had he had want a really

121
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 1: good pass break up midway through practice. Uh, And I

122
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 1: think this is only going to be better for Denzel

123
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 1: and I can look at the schedule right now and

124
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: it's just when when does he face a receiver on

125
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: the level of O'Dell Beckham. I don't think he does.

126
00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 1: So I'm I'm just standing right now. I just don't

127
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 1: think he does. There's no one, there's no one that's

128
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: going to test him the way that Odell Beckham tests him.

129
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 1: Right now, this is only gonna make him better. So

130
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: this is for week one. He's gonna go up against

131
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: Corey Davis after facing O'Dell for a month of courage,

132
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: is all right? It's not Odell Beckham? Do Yeah. I like.

133
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,599
Speaker 1: I like what we're doing with Denzel and I also

134
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 1: it's gonna make these other corners better. I mean, it's

135
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 1: gonna make a T. J. Kerry, Terrence Mitchell, Greedy Williams

136
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,679
Speaker 1: eventually if if he if he gets back to seeing

137
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,039
Speaker 1: some first team defensive reps, it's gonna make these guys

138
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 1: better because you don't want to come out here and

139
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: get embarrassed in front of a few thousand fans every day. Yeah,

140
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,600
Speaker 1: I think looking down that schedule, probably the best receiver

141
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: really is gonna face next year is is hopefully healthy,

142
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 1: a j Green for the for the Bengals sake. I mean,

143
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,479
Speaker 1: at somebody you see twice a year, but he's already

144
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: seen him, you know before. It's somebody that the Browns

145
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 1: are familiar with because he's been in the division for

146
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: a long time. So yeah, it's uh. There's no better

147
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 1: place that I think to get better as a defense

148
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 1: and as an individual player than during practice, and since

149
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 1: we're at the start of training camp, we're gonna see

150
00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,839
Speaker 1: a lot of that this year. My big takeaway though,

151
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,279
Speaker 1: doesn't even have to do with the players in the

152
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 1: field so much as it has to do with the fans.

153
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: You know, we expected a big turnout, but I don't

154
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:08,840
Speaker 1: know if it's another It might be one of those

155
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: situations again like Beckham, where you think it and you

156
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 1: envision it, but it's never real until it happens. And

157
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 1: for me, this is also kind of a special moment

158
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: for me because it's it's my first training camp practice

159
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 1: with you know, the organization, so it was a new

160
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: experience for me as well. But to see all the fans,

161
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 1: I mean we're talking five six deep all the way

162
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 1: back to the fence. Every bleacher is packed. People are chanting,

163
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: you know, here we go, Brownies, here we go. And

164
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: and and then that first roar, that first catch that

165
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: Beckham made today, when the whole everybody in the bleachers

166
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 1: and everybody watching erupted because it was a little sleepy

167
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: early on. I came out and I said it to

168
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 1: a couple of people like it's awful quiet, Like maybe

169
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 1: this is how the morting practices are. And I've just

170
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 1: forgotten about camps of slow build because you have stretched

171
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: with some music. People are getting excited, and then you

172
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 1: go into about forty minutes of individuals, and yeah, that

173
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,160
Speaker 1: can get a little dull. But they woke up with

174
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: that first catch, and the excitement was there for quite

175
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 1: some time before it went back into you know, working

176
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 1: too special teams, individual drills and coming back around for

177
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 1: the latter port portion, which at that point some people

178
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 1: have to leave. They gott to go different places. It's

179
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: a Thursday, it's a work day, and it's around noon,

180
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 1: so you know, not everybody's gonna be able to come.

181
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: But man, what a turnout for the first day of practice.

182
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 1: And people were really decked out in all their Brown's

183
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 1: gear and all the custom posters and signs of people

184
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: brought in and the custom jerseys and just man, there's

185
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: there's just more excitement surrounding this team. And this is

186
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 1: a passionate football town already. You don't have to do

187
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,559
Speaker 1: a lot to get these people excited, but it's through

188
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,839
Speaker 1: the roof after just going to practice. I got here

189
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 1: at seven forty five this morning. I parked down the street.

190
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 1: I don't even try to go to the lot over here.

191
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'll just park at the corner. I have

192
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 1: a nice little stroll in in the morning, you know,

193
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 1: walk by some fans and kind of gauge what's going on.

194
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 1: And I think I got one of the last spots

195
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: in the grass parking lot. Yeah, somehow, somehow found a

196
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: way in there around nine o'clock, but I was I'm

197
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,200
Speaker 1: not sure who I blocked in to do so, I mean,

198
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,719
Speaker 1: I think, but it's it's it's crazy because today they

199
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: played on field three, which is the backfield with the

200
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 1: smallest set of bleachers. When they move it out to

201
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 1: field one and field two, that's when you're gonna feel

202
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 1: the atmosphere even more here. So I would think we're

203
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: on schedule for it to be out there once the

204
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: pads get on and I would imagine tomorrow, you know,

205
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 1: with Friday's practice being the end of the work week,

206
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: maybe some people cut out of work earlier, they take

207
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 1: a day off, they grab their and they all come

208
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 1: in and they come in and droves and yeah, if

209
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: we do see the action more on those other two

210
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,439
Speaker 1: fields that are closer to the building with the bigger

211
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,319
Speaker 1: set of leaders, and also the V I P areas

212
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 1: and there's some second level tents and stuff like that

213
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: where people can congregate. Oh man, I think it's gonna

214
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: be It's gonna be like that for probably a week

215
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: or so. And and rightfully, so, you know, these fans

216
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: should be excited. And I think more than anything, they

217
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,839
Speaker 1: were just excited to be able to congregate together and

218
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 1: watch their football team, even if they weren't even wearing

219
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 1: pet I feel bad for the teams that don't do this,

220
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: like I just don't. I don't like the Eagles on one,

221
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 1: Raiders don't have any like I just this is maybe

222
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 1: it wouldn't be like this in other cities, but it

223
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: just like why not do it? Like watch it on TV,

224
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 1: watch NFL networks around training camp? Like the number of

225
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: people like that, why would you not do this. Yeah,

226
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 1: it's it's just I can't believe the teams are that

227
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 1: secretive or whatever reasons they have, but it would, it would.

228
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 1: I would hate to see this, ever go in a

229
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 1: different direction of having less of these. And you know,

230
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: on that point to Freddie made a good point today

231
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: after practice and somebody asked him about you know, was

232
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:34,079
Speaker 1: he involved with the decision to have fifteen open practices?

233
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 1: And I think the big point that he made there

234
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: that was important was that he understands that this is

235
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 1: a passionate and unique fan base in town and region,

236
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 1: but not that that not everybody can afford to go

237
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: to a game on Sunday. Let's face in the NFL

238
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 1: is an expensive business. It's expensive place to attend, to

239
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,840
Speaker 1: get account for tickets, parking, concessions, whatever else that is involved.

240
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 1: But they wanted to make sure that as many fans

241
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 1: as possible could come do this and come to do

242
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: it for free. And I think that's very important because

243
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: it's a loyal fan base that has been through some

244
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 1: tough times and I think they should be rewarded and

245
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,599
Speaker 1: be able to attend something like this. My big takeaway

246
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:12,599
Speaker 1: a practice that went over two hours, two hours in

247
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: almost fifteen minutes, to be exact. Nice to see. I

248
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 1: love the tempo. I just loved how it moved here

249
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 1: from start to finish. It was and maybe it's because

250
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,719
Speaker 1: of who we have on our football team and the expectations,

251
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 1: but just there was energy right from the get go.

252
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 1: I felt like there was pretty good energy and guys

253
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 1: getting after it. I liked how the sessions were mapped out. Um,

254
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 1: you know sometimes these special team sessions that we all

255
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 1: kind of occasionally roll our eyes at, which we shouldn't

256
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 1: based on how important that it is after last year

257
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: and looking at what's going on this year in terms

258
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:58,000
Speaker 1: of that being the main competition. Uh, it was nice

259
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: to see where that got slotted. It felt. It never

260
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: felt like there was a lull, you know. I mean,

261
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 1: the individual stuff is what it is, but you still

262
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 1: you're watching guys. You're like, Wow, look what's going on

263
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: over here? What's going on over here with the running backs,

264
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 1: what's going on with the lineman? You know, I'm watching

265
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 1: which the which quarterbacks throw into who you know, tight ends?

266
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 1: What are they doing? It was? It was constantly. I

267
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 1: just thought it was a good pace and I like

268
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 1: seeing practices go the full length and done something. Yeah,

269
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: there was very little time wasted, and I feel like,

270
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 1: you know, we had that inside look. Yeah, we had

271
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 1: that insight look last year from Hard Knocks and we

272
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: got to see how Drivers is kind of trying to

273
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 1: change the culture. But I think he was alone or

274
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 1: maybe a man of just a few people in a

275
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,840
Speaker 1: group who really wanted to attack practice and and really

276
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 1: took it to that next level. Well, now he's got

277
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 1: a teammate in O'Dell who arguably practices is even harder

278
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:48,680
Speaker 1: than him, and I think that raises the level of

279
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,959
Speaker 1: competition among everyone. And let's face it, you know, these

280
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 1: are two very talented units on offensive defense. They're also

281
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 1: gonna be very competitive, and we saw the first bits

282
00:12:57,960 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 1: of that today because they were tripping at each other

283
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: early on in these team sessions. I think it's gonna

284
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 1: be something's gonna come a lot in the future. There

285
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 1: might be something to this with the being in the morning,

286
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 1: because maybe there were some times last year in training

287
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: camp where you get to the guys near the end

288
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 1: of the day and you look at him as a

289
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 1: coach and you're like, these guys are zonked out by now,

290
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 1: they've already been outside for an hour and a half

291
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 1: a walk through like they've been through a full day

292
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,960
Speaker 1: of uh, you know, classroom type of stuff and everything

293
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 1: like that. You know, maybe that's the advantage of heaven

294
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: in the morning. But like, all right, these guys can

295
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: if we're gonna go along, we can just give them

296
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: a little bit of a longer break, you know, we

297
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 1: can do we can make adjustments to the schedule. So

298
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 1: maybe that's an advantage with the with the morning practice.

299
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 1: And you know, again this is two and a half

300
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 1: two plus our practice. They're not in pads. I mean,

301
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a lot more grueling. Like you might

302
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 1: as well get what you need to get done. You

303
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 1: got plenty of time left in the day. I think

304
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 1: it's someone who's not a morning person. If I were

305
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 1: a coach, I would absolutely have practice in the morning

306
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 1: like that. That goes against me even I don't even

307
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: enjoy the mornings. But no, you're not enjoying my alarm

308
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 1: going off at the time it went off. Now, but

309
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 1: you're more spry, you're more engaged, and you're more ready

310
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 1: when the sun still doing this and not doing this,

311
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 1: You're you're more excited and interested in getting something done.

312
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 1: All right, real quick game balls, offense, defense, special teams,

313
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 1: anybody that stood out to you today, game ball. You know,

314
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do this based It's tough to tell, but

315
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 1: I just and I think this had this affected some

316
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 1: of Baker what he did today and some of the

317
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 1: throws he missed. The defensive line is just looks really good,

318
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 1: like they just look there would have been a lot

319
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 1: of sacks today had there been contact. Um they let

320
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 1: some plays go longer when there probably would have been sacks.

321
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 1: There were some clear sacks from Miles Garrett. There's just

322
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 1: a lot of options with this group now where they're

323
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 1: moving Miles all over the place. I just that group

324
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 1: doesn't get talked about much, but that that is a

325
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: menacing looking group and we saw it today and they

326
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 1: were giving the offense got there's occasionally, but they were

327
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: giving the offense plenty of issues. Ogan Joby looked like

328
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 1: kemb But you don't see Baker get passes the bros.

329
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 1: Baker get his passes knocked down very much, and he

330
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 1: had a few of them. We we talked about the

331
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 1: interior of this defensive line and really the front foreur

332
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 1: in general, and we've you know, maybe even in time

333
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 1: salvated over the potential. But since today was the first

334
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 1: time we really got to see it on action, I

335
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 1: feel like this is the first time where we got

336
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 1: We weren't at full speed, but we were pretty close. Um,

337
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: without the pads, where we first got our good look

338
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 1: at the potential of this group. And it's extremely exciting.

339
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 1: It blew away my expectations, and I anticipate that the

340
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 1: offensive line will have something to say about it once

341
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: they do put the pads on. But man, if they

342
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 1: if they are like they were in just today's session,

343
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 1: for most of the year, nobody's gonna want to play

344
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 1: this defense this year, no question about it. Game ball

345
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: for you. Um, I'm gonna go in in two directions.

346
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 1: We just raved about the interior of the defensive line,

347
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna go with um Eric kush center. You know,

348
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 1: It's it's kind of difficult right now, you know, without

349
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 1: the paths to really judge that. But from what I

350
00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 1: saw in terms of footwork, um, how well he maintained

351
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 1: blocks and and the firmness of his base of his feet. Man,

352
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: he was really good today. He was good in teamwork

353
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 1: while some other guys next to him struggled at still

354
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 1: you know, that right guard position still in flux um.

355
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 1: Eric was very good as the second string center, and

356
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 1: he was good in one on ones and I think

357
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: he's the most reliable backup you have right now. And

358
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,200
Speaker 1: yeah it's only day one of the have any pads on,

359
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 1: but he looked really good. That's that's where I'll go

360
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 1: shocking that you want with a hog Malley. I took

361
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 1: a trip around the field in between the fields just

362
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 1: to go watch their one on ones. Everyone else is

363
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: watching seven on seven, because that's where that's where I

364
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:39,840
Speaker 1: do my dirty work. Uh my game ball. Obviously, you

365
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 1: you could have named it today, you could have named

366
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 1: it the Odell Award. But uh, Duke Johnson. Here's a

367
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 1: guy that showed up today. And there's been a lot

368
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 1: of controversy. There's been a lot of things swirling around.

369
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 1: He's had a tumultuous summer to say the least, and

370
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 1: spring for that matter. Man showed up. Man was here

371
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 1: on Monday, well out on the field of day. I

372
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: liked what I saw. Put everything to the side, put

373
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,880
Speaker 1: whatever is going on with his contract and and everything else,

374
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 1: went about his business and did a really nice job.

375
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: I thought today, even on special teams, we saw a

376
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:15,439
Speaker 1: little bit. And you know what, the fans still love

377
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 1: them too. Yeah, they do well. Yeah, there's a lot

378
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 1: of duke chances as soon as he got out there.

379
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 1: And also, look, there's a little bit of a window

380
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 1: of opportunity for him because we know Kareem Hunt's gonna

381
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: out for the first dad games. But he's also not

382
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 1: playing right now because of a groin injury. So if

383
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 1: we look at those details and then you see how

384
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,359
Speaker 1: many reps he got today, he should be pretty encouraged.

385
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he's getting the ball a lot. All right.

386
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:39,160
Speaker 1: Those are today's takeaways and game balls. Onto the news

387
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 1: of the day here in Barria, as day one of

388
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 1: Brown's training camp wraps up on the best podcast available

389
00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:49,119
Speaker 1: on Jason Gipps, He's Andrew Gribble, He's Nick Shook and

390
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 1: the biggest news of the day, Uh, not a big surprise.

391
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 1: Mike Daniels, the defensive tackle cut by the Packers his

392
00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 1: first visit Green Bay southwise known as the Cleveland Browns.

393
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,479
Speaker 1: So I met with John Dorsey today for a few hours,

394
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:10,640
Speaker 1: spent some time and a guy that we talked about

395
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 1: how good the Browns defensive line was today in practice.

396
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,880
Speaker 1: If a guy like Mike Daniels came here, I don't

397
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 1: know where everybody's gonna play. It's not a bit. It's

398
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 1: a good problem to have. I just think about it

399
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,680
Speaker 1: as like an opposing interior linement and knowing that I'm

400
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,640
Speaker 1: going to have to go into defensive line that's going

401
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,680
Speaker 1: to include Sheldon Richardson and Larry Ogunjovi at the one

402
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: in the three. Oh, and then by the way, when

403
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 1: they need a blow, here comes Mike Daniels. That is

404
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,239
Speaker 1: scary to me. There are no breaks for an opponent, uh,

405
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,119
Speaker 1: facing that kind of defensive line, So it would be

406
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:45,880
Speaker 1: really really exciting if they were able to work something out. Yeah,

407
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,200
Speaker 1: it's it's exciting and it's but it is weird that

408
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: now that I was like watching it out in practice today,

409
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 1: you do wonder to him at thirty years old, how

410
00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 1: I mean, he wants to win, obviously, but if he

411
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 1: was out of practice today, how appealing is it to

412
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 1: come in and not be maybe at every imagine he's

413
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 1: not every play gout to begin with, but you are

414
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 1: definitely not at every play guy here, and then I

415
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 1: wonder what he's gonna think about some of these other places.

416
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 1: I mean, relationships mean a lot, and you have a

417
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,639
Speaker 1: much stronger connection to this guy than you did Gerald

418
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 1: McCoy before, and you had a really good shot with

419
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 1: Gerald McCoy. I think getting the first visit is a

420
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:29,440
Speaker 1: strong indication that you're among the favorites. Let's just hope

421
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 1: it goes better than the mcoy pursuit. The last visitor

422
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 1: got him last time. I was it is is it?

423
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 1: It's an honor to be the first visitor. But if

424
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,640
Speaker 1: you're selling a car, you don't like letting people walk out,

425
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,359
Speaker 1: and that that's the that's the thing you worry about

426
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 1: now over here, over the next couple of days, well

427
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 1: as the man making the pitch walks by the dog

428
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 1: bowl here. Now you wonder is it a case for

429
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:55,239
Speaker 1: Mike Daniels. Does he care about money? Does he care

430
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,400
Speaker 1: about playing time? Does he care about potential to win?

431
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: Because this team is operating with enough cap space to

432
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 1: fulfill that playing time. Just as Gribble said, it's not

433
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 1: going to be an every down situation. But at his age,

434
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 1: maybe maybe it's more interested in the rotational role. Not

435
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:11,879
Speaker 1: because your numbers are gonna be as good you're not

436
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: gonna get that big contract as a result, but you

437
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: could maybe prolong your career a couple more years if

438
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 1: you're not taking the pounding of an every down situation.

439
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 1: So I think that there are some unique details to

440
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,919
Speaker 1: a potential pairing here that might work in his favor

441
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,119
Speaker 1: if that's what he cares about. So definitely something to

442
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,439
Speaker 1: watch and it will be interesting to see where he

443
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:37,120
Speaker 1: goes after here. I mean, clearly he's keeping his options

444
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 1: open and it will be he says he wants to

445
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 1: play for a winner. So what's visit number two? Because

446
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:49,680
Speaker 1: clearly the Browns were visit number one? Who's visit who?

447
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 1: Who's the competition? I would think Kansas City that they're

448
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 1: the team that's been looking for a lot of defensive

449
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,919
Speaker 1: line help. They're clearly built to believe that they can

450
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl. I mean, maybe they have a

451
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: little bit more opportunity. They got a superstar there and

452
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 1: Chris Jones, but I don't know what else, off the

453
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: top of my head got on the defensive line. That's

454
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 1: a team that I would worry about. Umbody in the

455
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 1: NFC North. Could the Bears make a run at him?

456
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,120
Speaker 1: Someone to try to get him? I mean, I think

457
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 1: it would be a US. You're right, you're trying to

458
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 1: stay in the division. See from the Yeah, I think

459
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 1: they're fairly set in their in their front for maybe

460
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 1: a Minnesota pairing, But I don't really see it. They're

461
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 1: either they're pretty solid at that position. But then again,

462
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 1: you can look at the Browns s well, they're solid

463
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:35,920
Speaker 1: that position too. It just comes down to what what

464
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:37,399
Speaker 1: does he care about more? And we're not going to

465
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,159
Speaker 1: know that until he makes that decision. We didn't know

466
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,399
Speaker 1: that about jeral McCoy either. You know, all signs of

467
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,439
Speaker 1: the time pointed to him having a positive visit here

468
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,199
Speaker 1: and you end up seeing the NFC South. Does he

469
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 1: care about playing the Packers or does he care about

470
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 1: you know, going to a place that's run by people

471
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 1: with whom he is familiar and uh and the opportunity

472
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,880
Speaker 1: to go after some victories in a deep playoff run.

473
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 1: If you're a veteran, are you rushing to make a

474
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 1: decision right now? Absolutely, That's what I'm wondering. Like he knows,

475
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 1: these are the absolute dog days of training camp where

476
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:09,919
Speaker 1: they push these guys the hardest midweek next week, so

477
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:11,399
Speaker 1: then you only have a week to get ready for

478
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 1: the first preseason game. I mean you probably play. Yeah,

479
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 1: it'll be you're playing in the second preseason game in

480
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,439
Speaker 1: the week in Indianapolis. I mean, it would be a

481
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 1: big win to get him in there, but it is

482
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:27,760
Speaker 1: again not a desperate situation where you had him. This

483
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:31,879
Speaker 1: would be a truly luxury signing for this team. And

484
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 1: it would really because I do think if there's a

485
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,199
Speaker 1: position group that I think we'll have a player that

486
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 1: is not on this team currently on the three man

487
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 1: roster before the first game. I do think it's defensive tackle.

488
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,919
Speaker 1: But you could you could be just fine with a

489
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,919
Speaker 1: guy that you're getting from a team that cut that

490
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 1: is not a Mike Daniels. I mean, the camp casualty

491
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 1: you could get, you'd feel pretty good. Yeah. I think

492
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: it's a unique situation this year in that we've had

493
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 1: multiple veteran defensive tack those who are still pretty high

494
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,880
Speaker 1: caliber players who are suddenly available, and it's a year

495
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,359
Speaker 1: in which we don't necessarily need that help, but we

496
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,120
Speaker 1: would like to add that help. It's it's interesting, for sure,

497
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 1: something to watch, and we will have the latest as

498
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 1: we get it here in Maria on the best podcast

499
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 1: available Our sound bite of the day Odell Beckham Jr.

500
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,639
Speaker 1: Talking about how special it could be with Baker Mayfield,

501
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 1: but he wants to talk about another part of this

502
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 1: football team that's not getting a whole lot of pub

503
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 1: Like I said, I was like, I feel like a

504
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 1: lot of people talk about the offense and talk about

505
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,400
Speaker 1: Joe Vis Baker and Joe Coup and we got Joe

506
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,560
Speaker 1: Scream and all these and I'm like it's crazy because

507
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,679
Speaker 1: I think the defense is crazy to me, you know,

508
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:42,399
Speaker 1: I think about defensive team is going to be a

509
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 1: very very tough, physical, um hard team to beat him.

510
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 1: When you've got a team like that you're going against

511
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 1: every single day, you can only get better. There's Odell

512
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 1: Beckham Jr. And everybody wants to talk offense, offense, offense, offense.

513
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 1: No one wants to talk about the defense. And Freddie

514
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 1: keeps reminding you the some of the coordinators remind you,

515
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 1: John Dorsey remind you. And now you're getting the offensive

516
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: players now that they're getting a chance to go up

517
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 1: against these guys in camp, and I think it was

518
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 1: a little eye opening today for our offensive guys. Yeah,

519
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:14,959
Speaker 1: probably for the people up front too, because I mean

520
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 1: they were the pressure they got on Baker Mayfield, you know,

521
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,119
Speaker 1: it forced him. He was he looked a little uncomfortable

522
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,159
Speaker 1: at times. And that's a good thing at this point

523
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,439
Speaker 1: because the offense can work on that and be that

524
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 1: means your defense is pretty good. I think O'Dell saw

525
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,640
Speaker 1: that pretty quickly. Yeah, there's a great photo we gotta

526
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 1: practice day of Sheldon Richson putting his arm around Odell today.

527
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:36,439
Speaker 1: And I just think that he knows that these players

528
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:37,920
Speaker 1: around the league know each other. They've been around in

529
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 1: the league, around the same the same amount of time

530
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 1: played in New York to get together different teams obviously

531
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 1: for a few years. I think there's just a respect

532
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:49,159
Speaker 1: factor between what is going on offensively and defensively on

533
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 1: this team. I think that as as much as they

534
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 1: he might get on their nerves, I think they know

535
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 1: Tomarius Randall's a real player and and and talks, and

536
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 1: I think that keeps things lively out there. Uh. It's

537
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: good to see this, this competitiveness back and forth, and

538
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 1: I think that we're going to see it throughout the

539
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 1: rest of camp. And you might have a scrap or

540
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 1: two here and there, because both sides like to talk.

541
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 1: It's just that one side gets talked about a lot more,

542
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 1: but the other side. I don't think Myles Garrett talked

543
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 1: about two. He doesn't. He doesn't care that the offense

544
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 1: is getting all the credit. They know what they have

545
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,640
Speaker 1: in there. And I think that just from hearing them

546
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 1: talk and all this stuff, it seems like they really

547
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,159
Speaker 1: believe what is going on with Steve Wilks at defense

548
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,400
Speaker 1: Cord and where he's putting him in position to win.

549
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,159
Speaker 1: Just go back and and hear the end of Myles

550
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: Garrett talking at his media availability today and so Odell

551
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,919
Speaker 1: was waiting behind him and kind of talking a little trash,

552
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,679
Speaker 1: and they asked Miles what he thought. He goes, how

553
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 1: can you not pay attention? He goes, every time the

554
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,360
Speaker 1: guy catches the ball, everybody gives him a standing ovation.

555
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 1: It's like no one's ever seen anybody catching football before.

556
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 1: I mean, it's I think it will be very, very

557
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,879
Speaker 1: fun to watch comes Saturday, when the pads are on

558
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,439
Speaker 1: the and the defense can hit some people. Yeah, definitely,

559
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 1: And I think that that chip in the there's only

560
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,440
Speaker 1: gonna grow and it will be a positive thing because

561
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 1: there's nothing new an offense doesn't want to face quite

562
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:09,399
Speaker 1: like more quite like a defense that's angry and is

563
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 1: out to prove something and is as talented as this

564
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:15,800
Speaker 1: one is. Uh, Friday, what to watch for? What are

565
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:19,880
Speaker 1: we looking for as we get into Friday Day two? Okay,

566
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 1: the the newness is worn off of the car. Now

567
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 1: we're into training camp. What can we expect. I'll keep

568
00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 1: my eyes on the cornerback situation. We haven't talked much

569
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 1: about that today, and I think that it's worth noting

570
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 1: that Terrence Mitchell was with the first team defense today.

571
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,679
Speaker 1: T J. Kerry got a lot of first team defense

572
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:42,480
Speaker 1: reps as well. They didn't do a ton with multiple

573
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,520
Speaker 1: with more than three d with three corners, so you

574
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:46,439
Speaker 1: did see the three safety look out there with your

575
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 1: main white head. But where when do we start to

576
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,440
Speaker 1: see Greedy Williams worked in a little bit with the

577
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 1: first team defense. He mean, he played really well with

578
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,399
Speaker 1: the second team today. Dropped an interception, had to do

579
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:56,880
Speaker 1: some push ups, but he was in the right place

580
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 1: at the right time. I just didn't catch the ball,

581
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: So I think he's still competition is ongoing, as is

582
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 1: the one on the offensive line as well. We'll keep

583
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 1: our eyes on who's in that right guard tomorrow. So

584
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 1: that those are really your two starting battles, and then

585
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,240
Speaker 1: you might throw in and we saw in a Darius

586
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,280
Speaker 1: Taylor with the first team defense when they when they

587
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 1: use three linebackers. I just I'm not focused on that

588
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,200
Speaker 1: one as much, just because there's probably only gonna be

589
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,280
Speaker 1: two linebackers on the field wild time. Yeah, it's interesting

590
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,440
Speaker 1: some of the defensive sub packages that we saw and

591
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 1: and where certain guys we're playing, you know, first second

592
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: team guy like a Ray Ray Armstrong or like you said,

593
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 1: in a Darius Taylor or Genard Avery, where they land

594
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 1: so far And a lot of is they're tankering with

595
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,400
Speaker 1: things and trying new things out, so we shouldn't overreact

596
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,440
Speaker 1: to much of it. But I also want to see

597
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,640
Speaker 1: because tomorrow is you know, really the last day of

598
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:46,440
Speaker 1: safety without pads, which you know players love the first

599
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,679
Speaker 1: day of pads because you get you get to hit somebody. Okay,

600
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 1: that's the first thing is you get to hit somebody.

601
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 1: But secondly, you get to hear those pads crack and

602
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 1: really let it out. You don't have to hold up.

603
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:56,959
Speaker 1: You don't have to you know, have to pull up

604
00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 1: you know early anymore. And but or we get to

605
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,359
Speaker 1: that point. I want to see how Baker Mayfield handles

606
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,160
Speaker 1: being under duress, being under pressure in the pocket, because

607
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 1: he was under pressure a good amount today and he

608
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,119
Speaker 1: did escape, but most of the times when he escaped,

609
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 1: he pulled it down and ran. I want to see

610
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 1: him escape and maybe extend the play and throw the

611
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: football and find somebody open. And that comes with comfort

612
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 1: with this receiving corps, which he still needs to get

613
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,159
Speaker 1: reps with. And I just want to see, if you know,

614
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 1: maybe he'll improve slightly in that regard. But you know, again,

615
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: we're a long way from from even the first preseason games.

616
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: There's a lot of work to do, but I would

617
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 1: like to see a little bit of an improvement in

618
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,360
Speaker 1: that in that area, I will be interested to see

619
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 1: that offensive line. Uh. Piggybacking off of what you said earlier,

620
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 1: Austin Corbett was with the ones today? Who's with the

621
00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 1: ones tomorrow? Who gets that next chance? You mentioned that Baker,

622
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,480
Speaker 1: Both of you mentioned it. Baker was under duress a

623
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 1: little bit today. Maybe not the best day for the

624
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 1: offensive line. It was the first day of practice. Let's

625
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 1: see what happens tomorrow. Now that thing, guys have a

626
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 1: little bit more familiarity with one another. Yeah, you know

627
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: in that offensive line point. The second team line was

628
00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 1: interesting to me because it went Brad Seaton, Brian Witzman, uh,

629
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 1: Eric Kush and then it went Kyle Kyless and Kendall Lamb.

630
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,719
Speaker 1: And I need to see some some quicker feet from

631
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 1: Kenda Lamb. But again it's your first day out there

632
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 1: and you're working stuff, and again you don't have pads,

633
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 1: and maybe he's more of a physical guy than he

634
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:15,920
Speaker 1: is a footwork guy. But it was interesting to see

635
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 1: how they moved guys in and out at the center

636
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 1: and right guard. You saw Kyle Kyless get some center

637
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 1: snaps with the third team. He saw Uston Corbett working

638
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 1: in in that area as well. And uh, the new guy,

639
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 1: first name is low I can't even pronounce his last name.

640
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 1: He Fallen Maca there it is brought in and played

641
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 1: excellent at center in one on ones as well. So

642
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 1: of course, you know, you gotta keep an an eye

643
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 1: on that interior battle because that's gonna be very important

644
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 1: going forward. Should be a good one. On Friday, the

645
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 1: weather forecast looks great again. Four puppies got adopted today.

646
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:48,600
Speaker 1: Four good day. Four puppies from the puppy pound are gone,

647
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 1: plenty left if you're coming out to practice. Gentleman final thoughts, No,

648
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 1: bring sunscreen. Screen is important. It's it's you might be

649
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 1: fooled and thinking it's morning. You're not gonna get unburned.

650
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 1: There's a lot of people paying the price wrong. Look,

651
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 1: I put sunscreen on, and I think I might be

652
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 1: a little bit red. And and you're a lot better

653
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 1: than you were after the Odell camp. The bucket hat

654
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,479
Speaker 1: is a savior, so invest in proper headwear as well,

655
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 1: especially if you're lacking hair like myself. But yeah, sunscreen

656
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 1: number one and dressed appropriately. Also give yourself plenty of

657
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 1: time to get here become Uh. Parking is at a

658
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 1: premium and you're going we are literally stationed in a

659
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 1: neighborhood not not set up for great parking success anyways.

660
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 1: And then when you throw in thousands of people that

661
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 1: aren't normally here, it can be a little bit issue.

662
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 1: But it has handled well today. I mean as best

663
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 1: as you can. Uh. And I will say also, if

664
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 1: you can't be here, there's imagine the majority of our

665
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,959
Speaker 1: listeners can't be here, aren't even close to Barria follow

666
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 1: along at at Browns because We're putting highlights up there

667
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 1: very quickly, either from a cell phone from actual cameras.

668
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 1: We have the best angles on everything you could want.

669
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 1: I had numerous people compliments our career today that that

670
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 1: are at their job said they felt like they were here,

671
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 1: like they didn't really miss anything. We had an incredible

672
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,239
Speaker 1: catch from model Beckham early in practice and they had

673
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 1: it up very quickly in slow motion. I think it's

674
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 1: still breaking social media. The first catch has over a

675
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 1: million views. All right, so we've got that going for

676
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 1: us on dad one. All right, we'll see if we
