Speaker 1: to the offensive line this week, but do the folks

7
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 1: at Pro Football Focus feel the same way? I'll talk

8
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 1: to a PFF analyst by one on one player interviewers

9
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,080
Speaker 1: with Mike Kasicki, who tells us why it doesn't bother

10
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 1: him that quarterbacks don't get Christmas presents for their tight ends.

11
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 1: And in our Know the Faux segment, we'll ask the

12
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 1: voice of the Browns, Andrew Ceciliano, if Cleveland has found

13
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 1: its quarterback in Shador Sanders. The Bengals Booth Podcast is

24
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 1: the greatest thing since. Gene Deckerhoff, one of the NFL's

25
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 1: most popular radio broadcasters, announced on Wednesday that he's going

26
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: to retire at the end of this season at the

27
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 1: age of eighty. Tampa Bay's Gene Deckerhoff Jean's been the

28
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 1: voice of the Buccaneers for thirty seven years, and until

29
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: four years ago, was also the voice of Florida State

30
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: football and basketball. He was an inspiration to me when

31
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 1: I got the opportunity to do the Bengals and Bearcats combo.

32
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 1: Gene is a colorful broadcaster with a very distinctive voice,

33
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 1: and one of his signature calls is to fire the

34
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 1: cannons after Tampa Bay touchdowns and wins. Here's Gene after

35
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers beat Kansas City in Super Bowl fifty five.

36
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 3: I want to hear cannons for sure, and I think

37
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 3: we are going to hear cannons if I got to

38
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 3: do the boom boom boom myself. Bucks win, Bucks Win,

39
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 3: Bucks Win the Super Bowl fifty five Tom Brady engineers

40
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 3: the offense, the Buccaneers score late in the first half,

41
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 3: earlier the second half, and that a cannon's cannon fire them,

42
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 3: keep on firing them, keep on firing them. How about

43
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:43,519
Speaker 3: the Buccaneers huh seven and five after November. Now there's

44
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 3: our eighth consecutive win franchise records. Celebrate Buccaneer Fares poist

45
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 3: that Lombardi.

46
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: Gene called both of Tampa Bay's Super Bowl wins and

47
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: three Florida state national championships. Congrats to my friend mean

48
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 1: Geen Deckerhoff on a remarkable broadcasting career. Now let's get

49
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 1: to my first guest this week, Zach Taylor said that

50
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: the offensive line is playing the best it ever has

51
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 1: since he's been Cincinnati's head coach. In recent weeks, we've

52
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 1: also heard defensive coordinator Al Golden sing the praises of

53
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 1: some of his young players on defense. That got me thinking,

54
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: do the tape watching gurus at Pro Football Focus agree?

55
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: I caught up this week with PFF analyst Dalton Wasserman. Dalton,

56
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 1: I think most Bengals fans feel like the offensive line

57
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: has been playing better of late, but you guys have

58
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 1: the data and you shared some this week on the

59
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: PFF NFL Show that I found really interesting share with

60
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: my audience how the Bengals offensive line has played over

61
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 1: the past five games.

62
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 4: They've really turned it around. And we have our grading

63
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 4: system right in every debate in every facet of offense

64
00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 4: and defense as well. And when you look at our

65
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 4: past playing grades over the last five weeks, nobody has

66
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 4: had a better pass blocking grade than the Cincinnati Bengals.

67
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 4: And at first glance, you know, my thought was, Okay,

68
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 4: Joe Burrow must be getting rid of the ball in

69
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 4: like a second and a half, right and just helping

70
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 4: these guys out a bit. But his average time to

71
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 4: throw is sat around two point seven two point eight seconds,

72
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 4: which is kind of middle of the road. So when

73
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 4: you talk about Burrow actually being protected in the pocket,

74
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,679
Speaker 4: it's working lately, and we know as well as anybody,

75
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 4: if Joe Burrow is protected, he can be the best

76
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 4: quarterback in football on any given day.

77
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 1: Let's talk about some of the specific offensive lineman who

78
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 1: has graded out the best, and how has rookie left

79
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 1: guard Dylan Fairchild performed this year.

80
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 4: So recently, when you look at the entire unit's been

81
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 4: really good. Especially Orlando Brown at left tackle, and he's

82
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 4: going to be in the spotlight this week against the

83
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 4: Browns with Miles Garrett chasing that sack record, and he's

84
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 4: going to be lined up over Brown the most often.

85
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 4: But when you look at it, Amarius Mims is actually

86
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 4: their highest graded start Actually, I should say Dalton Reisner

87
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 4: is their highest graded starting offensive lineman. Amarius Mims is

88
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,719
Speaker 4: right behind him. Lately, everybody's performed well in pass protection,

89
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 4: and Dylan Fairchild, after a rough maybe first four or

90
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 4: five games of the season, he's really turned it on.

91
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 4: Of Lady was a really good pass blocker at Georgia,

92
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 4: just needed some time to adjust to NFL life. But

93
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 4: he's been solid lately, getting better down the stretch of

94
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 4: the season. And as we know, that interior has been

95
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 4: a concern for several years. So if a guy like

96
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 4: Dylan Fairchild can really lock down one of those guard

97
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 4: spots long term, that's a big benefit to Burrow in

98
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 4: this offense.

99
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 1: We are chatting with PFF analyst, writer and podcaster Dalton Wasserman.

100
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:30,719
Speaker 2: Let's talk a little bit about Joe Burrow.

101
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: The last couple of weeks, he's completed seventy eight percent

102
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 1: of his passes, six touchdowns, no picks, passer rating of

103
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,919
Speaker 1: nearly one point forty give us an interesting nugget about

104
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: Joe for the season from some of the things that

105
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: PFF analyzes when it comes to quarterback play.

106
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, it's funny because just it feels

107
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,600
Speaker 4: like when he's healthy and protected, everything about Joe Burrow

108
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 4: is interesting, right, And I don't know that there's one

109
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 4: number that necessarily, you know, in a specific department that

110
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 4: really encapsulates that. It's really more to me that you know,

111
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 4: in our passing grade, just in generals encapsulates every throw

112
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 4: that he's made this year. He's still second in the

113
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 4: NFL behind Matthew Stafford.

114
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 5: Who might win the MVP.

115
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 4: Right, Joe Burrow is still an MVP candidate if he

116
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 4: could get through seventeen healthy games behind a good offensive line,

117
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 4: and of course, when Jamar Chase and t Higgins are

118
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 4: both healthy, this offense is darn near unstoppable, even with

119
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 4: some of the flaws that it does have. So I

120
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,720
Speaker 4: think that's really what tells me, you know, Joe Burrows

121
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 4: still an elite guy. Fourteen big time throws this year,

122
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 4: only four turnover wheth he plays less than one percent

123
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 4: of the time that he really puts the ball in danger.

124
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 5: Joe Burrows as elite as ever.

125
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 4: They just have to, you know, find a way to

126
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,720
Speaker 4: disallowed points on defense a little more often and then

127
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 4: keep those guys on the outside healthy.

128
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 1: Speaking of the defense, it's been a year of slow

129
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,159
Speaker 1: but steady progress. I would say for some of the

130
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,280
Speaker 1: younger guys that the Bengals have been playing this year,

131
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: let's specifically look at their cornerbacks, and by that I

132
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 1: mean they're outside cornerbacks. DJ Turner, who's a Pro Bowl alternate,

133
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 1: and Dax Hill, who really seems to be thriving since

134
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 1: moving from the slot to the outside courback spot. Tell

135
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 1: us how those two guys have been performing. By PFF metrics.

136
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 4: Turner has been spectacular all year, and he's well deserving

137
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 4: if he gets into the Pro Bowl, or even as

138
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 4: an alternate there, he's well deserving of that bid. He's

139
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 4: been hovering around the top ten and coverage grade for

140
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 4: US all season and among the league leaders in pass breakups.

141
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 4: Really a ballhawk who Al Golden can trust in man

142
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 4: to man coverage, and he runs a man heavy system,

143
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 4: maybe not quite as heavy as he did at Notre

144
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 4: Dame last season, but still pretty heavy with the man coverage.

145
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 4: And then Dak Sail, like you mentioned, the adjustment to

146
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 4: the outside has really been something that's helped him. He's

147
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 4: a lot more comfortable out there. And then the Bengals

148
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 4: in the offseason can find a new nickel corner to

149
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 4: play in the slot. But Hill since Week eleven is

150
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 4: tenth in the league in our PFF coverage grades. Right,

151
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 4: so you've got two really good corners on the outside,

152
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 4: and these cornerbacks have really been the best, most consistent

153
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 4: part of this defense this year.

154
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: Dalton, Should we be encouraged by the play of Miles Murphy,

155
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: I think so.

156
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 4: I'd like to see him put it together one more

157
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 4: time against Cleveland, who's had arguably the worst offensive line

158
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 4: in football this year. But he and Shamar Stewart really

159
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 4: have opportunities to make one lasting impression going into the offseason. Now,

160
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 4: it's kind of assumed that the Bengals are gonna need

161
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 4: pass rush help anyway on the defensive line, whether that's

162
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 4: inside or outside, but especially when you look at the

163
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 4: way that Murphy's played in run defense the last couple

164
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 4: of weeks, He's been outstanding he's got multiple pressures as

165
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 4: a pass rusher in eight straight games. So as long

166
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 4: as you know he can be, he can prove to

167
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 4: be at least a regular contributor or even if he's

168
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 4: not a superstar pass rusher, that goes a long way,

169
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 4: because nowadays, with the NFL and these offenses loading up

170
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 4: with tight ends and the way they're running offense, you

171
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 4: need those big muscular defensive ends like Murphy, like Shamar

172
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 4: Stewart to help stop the run on early downs.

173
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 5: Then if he adds anything as a pass rusher, then

174
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 5: that's outstanding right there.

175
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 1: Don Wasserman from PFF is our guest. Let's talk about

176
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: this week's opponent, the Cleveland Browns, led by rookie quarterback

177
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: Shador Sanders. This will be NFL start number seven. How's

178
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 1: he done when he.

179
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 4: Has been clean, which hasn't been that often in the

180
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 4: pocket because the Browns pass protection is the worse than

181
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 4: football this year. When he's been clean, he's been pretty good,

182
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 4: especially when you talk about him throwing to the rookie

183
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 4: tight end Harold Fan and Junior, and we know the

184
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 4: Bengals have struggled to cover tight ends all year.

185
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 5: When he's clean, he's good. When he's under pressure.

186
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 4: He makes a lot of bad decisions, drifting backwards in

187
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 4: the pocket, taking unnecessary sacks. You know, throws into tight

188
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 4: coverage late in the place. So I would be curious

189
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 4: to see, because he struggled a bit against the Blitz

190
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:21,719
Speaker 4: this year too, I'd be curious to see if Al

191
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 4: Golden turns up the heat a little bit to make

192
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 4: schadur work quicker in the pocket, or make him make

193
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 4: quicker decisions back there, because when he's under pressure, that's

194
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 4: when he's really struggled.

195
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: Miles Garrett is one sack away from the single season

196
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 1: NFL record. Has anybody at any position played better than

197
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 1: Miles Garrett has this year?

198
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 6: No?

199
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 4: And I know obviously the MVP race is going to

200
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 4: come down to a quarterback. And we've had some great

201
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 4: performances from running backs James Cook and Christian McCaffrey, Bejon Robinson,

202
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,199
Speaker 4: guys like that, Pooka Nakua and Jackson Smith and Jigot Receiver.

203
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 4: But Miles Garrett is just he's on another planet.

204
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 6: Right.

205
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 4: You talk about a guy twenty two sacks, what is it?

206
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 4: First player ever with six straight years of twelve sacks?

207
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 4: I mean we have them as the highest graded defensive

208
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 4: player in football. I just don't think this. I don't

209
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,199
Speaker 4: know that you could argue there's a better football player

210
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 4: in the league right now than him. When you talk

211
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 4: about even like the example last week that Aaron Rodgers

212
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 4: and the Steelers were talking about that you have to

213
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 4: form your entire game plan off of avoiding this one

214
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,439
Speaker 4: guy on the line of scrimmage or you won't score

215
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,319
Speaker 4: any points. That's the ultimate sign of respect, Garrett. I

216
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 4: think you can make an easy arguments the best player

217
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 4: in football right now.

218
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,679
Speaker 1: After the game on Sunday, we will begin turning our

219
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,680
Speaker 1: attention to the NFL Draft. The Bengals are going to

220
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,319
Speaker 1: pick somewhere between number eight and number thirteen. You did

221
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 1: a mock draft this week with the Bengals at number ten.

222
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 1: You had them taking Texas tech edge rusher David Bailey.

223
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 2: Why Bailey? And give me a.

224
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,560
Speaker 1: Few other possibilities in that range of eight to thirteen.

225
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 4: So for me, you look at the Bengals trying to

226
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,439
Speaker 4: improve their front seven in this draft, whether it's on

227
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,560
Speaker 4: the defensive line or linebackers. So there's some really fun candidates.

228
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 4: You could get a guy in the interior, Peter Woods

229
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 4: from Clemson. You could get somebody like a linebacker from

230
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 4: Ohio State Sunny Styles could be in that range. But Bailey,

231
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:10,119
Speaker 4: to me, is the most direct replacement for Trey Hendrickson

232
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 4: as a pass rusher.

233
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 6: Right.

234
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,440
Speaker 4: He might be just an average run defender, a little

235
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 4: bit undersize in the NFL, but he's leading the nation

236
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 4: in pressures and sacks. He's been the best pass rusher

237
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:20,679
Speaker 4: in the country. You're going to see him in the

238
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 4: College Football Playoff this week against an outstanding offensive line

239
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 4: in Oregon. It's gonna be a lot of fun. But

240
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:29,120
Speaker 4: I think the Bengals need that true, just known pass rusher,

241
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,079
Speaker 4: that legitimate pass rusher. I love Shamar Stewart and Miles

242
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 4: Murphy for the run defense and what they can give

243
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 4: you on early downs, but when you talk about just

244
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 4: an explosive guy you could rack up double digit sacks

245
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 4: every year, David Bailey from Texas Tech could be that

246
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 4: guy for them, and I do think he's a very

247
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 4: direct replacement for Trey Hendrickson if you lose him this offseason.

248
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 2: Dalton, I always love picking your brain.

249
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: Appreciate the time, Happy New Year, and thanks so much

250
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 1: for joining us.

251
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 5: Appreciate you as always, Dan, thank you Happy New Year.

252
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 1: Here's an interesting PFF stat that did not come up

253
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:01,959
Speaker 1: in my conversation with Dalton last week. While holding Miles

254
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 1: Garrett without a sack, the Pittsburgh Steelers chipped him with

255
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: a back or tight end twenty seven times. After the game,

256
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:14,080
Speaker 1: Miles said that the Steelers were more concerned about preventing

257
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: him from getting the sack record than winning the game,

258
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 1: a notion that Zach Taylor isn't buying.

259
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 7: You know, I've heard that a couple times about Pittsburgh

260
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 7: was trying to win the game, and the way to

261
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 7: do that is you have to limit Malgarret's effectiveness. And

262
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 7: you watch every other tape that's been on all season.

263
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,679
Speaker 7: Teams are doing everything they can to limit his effectiveness.

264
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 7: Every run, every pass, every screen, every naked it all

265
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 7: has ninety five in mind. And our point has never

266
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:42,599
Speaker 7: been any differently. You want to limit his effectiveness. And

267
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 7: he makes as much of an impact on a game

268
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 7: as any player in the NFL period, and you think

269
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,080
Speaker 7: about ninety five in your head every second of every

270
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 7: week you're playing the Cleveland Browns. He is you got

271
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:55,319
Speaker 7: to be ready.

272
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 1: For Garrett had two sacks in Week one against the Bengals,

273
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: It has a total of fifteen in thirteen career games

274
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 1: against Cincinnati. The Bengals Booth Podcast is brought to you

00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 1: Now time for this week's one on one player interview,

281
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: as I caught up with tight end Mike Asiki as

282
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: he nears the end of his eighth NFL season. Mike,

283
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 1: over the last couple of games, when Joe Burrow has

284
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 1: been on the field, the offense has been on an

285
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 1: absolute tear. Sixteen possessions, You've scored eleven touchdowns and kicked

286
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 1: two field goals.

287
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:44,679
Speaker 2: How would you.

288
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 1: Describe the way the Bengals offense is functioning right now?

289
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 8: I would say it's operating a very high level. It's efficient.

290
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 8: I think it starts with the coaches and the plan

291
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 8: that they put together, and then obviously you know then

292
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,719
Speaker 8: that trickles down to you know, the players and the

293
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 8: guys out there making plays. Obviously, you know this thing

294
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 8: goes with with with Joe and uh, you know, the

295
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 8: last two weeks I think have been exactly how how

296
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 8: it's supposed to look.

297
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 1: Is it a little bit or sweet to be clicking

298
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 1: to that extent and not have a game to look

299
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:15,680
Speaker 1: forward to next week?

300
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 8: I think you just got to kind of look at

301
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 8: the process to you know, one week at a time.

302
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 9: And you know, this is what this is what we

303
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 9: have left in this season.

304
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 8: Take advantage of that opportunity and then get ready, you know,

305
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 8: to attack the off season and you know, move forward

306
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 8: in that.

307
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 9: In that direction, you're wrapping up your eighth year.

308
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: Unfortunately, you have not had great luck where the playoffs

309
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: have been concerned. You did get there once as a

310
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 1: member of the Miami Dolphins. Does that gnaw at you

311
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 1: a little bit at this stage of your career?

312
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 9: Yeah?

313
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 8: I mean, you know, I'm sitting there mid season, you know,

314
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 8: when I was dealing with the peck and I'm already

315
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 8: looking at Okay, well, if we win this, we win that,

316
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 8: you know, because.

317
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 9: Just because you know, it's just it's why I wanted

318
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 9: to come here.

319
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 8: I want to play in big games, and you know,

320
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 8: and I think that you know, there's definitely you know,

321
00:14:58,040 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 8: a plan in place for that to.

322
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 9: Happen here in the very near future.

323
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 8: But uh, you know, obviously some things didn't work out

324
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 8: this year, but you know, excited for you know, the

325
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,320
Speaker 8: future of this organization and you know the you know,

326
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 8: the people that you know are gonna you know be

327
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 8: here to you know, help us, you know, take that

328
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 8: take that next step.

329
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: You've been really durable during your NFL career. This is

330
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 1: the first time you will play fewer than fifteen games.

331
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 1: You're still going to play thirteen, so it's not like

332
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 1: you missed a huge chunk of this season. Describe exactly

333
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 1: what happened in that Green Bay game.

334
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 8: Uh, yeah, it's just, uh, we want to go insert

335
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 8: and and block the linebacker. The ball end up hitting

336
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 8: you know, away from me. So the the backer ended

337
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 8: up running and I went to go almost grab him,

338
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 8: my arm kind of got just held up and just

339
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 8: kind of felt my my peck and you know, go there.

340
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 9: So it was it was an interesting.

341
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 8: You know feeling and then kind of getting a couple

342
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 8: of different reports and you know, the diagnosis and all

343
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 8: that kind of stuff, had a couple of different options

344
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 8: and had to weigh those, and you know, I could

345
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 8: have went the surgery route, and then they said that

346
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 8: you know, that would have obviously ended my season. And

347
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 8: then uh had an option to see if it would

348
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 8: heal on its own and be able to strengthen you know,

349
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 8: the muscles around it and all that kind of stuff,

350
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 8: and that would give me an opportunity to play. And uh,

351
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 8: you know, I'm very grateful for our training staff and

352
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 8: strength staff and all the people that helped me because

353
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 8: I love playing football.

354
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 9: And for for me to you know, not lose the

355
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 9: entire season and just lose those four weeks was it was.

356
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 8: A small win in for me in that entire situation.

357
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 1: Anything needed in the off season going forward where that injury.

358
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 8: Is concerned, no, I think, Uh, you know, just attack

359
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 8: the off season and you know, be ready to you know,

360
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 8: make sure that you know, year nine is you know,

361
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 8: the best year physically that I've felt, and be ready

362
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 8: to attack it because I do have, you know, really

363
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 8: high expectations for you know, this team's organization and for myself.

364
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 1: We're visiting with Mike Kasicki. You were rehabbing at the

365
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 1: same time as Joe Burrow. Were you rehabbing together.

366
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 8: In specific situations, Yeah, uh, you know when he was

367
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 8: coming back and I was coming back and able to

368
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 8: you know, finally run around that kind of stuff, was

369
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:06,120
Speaker 8: running routes and you know working with him and doing

370
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 8: that kind of stuff. Uh, so, you know, just accumulating

371
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 8: more reps and all that.

372
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 9: So it was, uh, it was.

373
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 8: You know, in that stage, it's just something to look

374
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 8: forward to rather than you know, just being the training

375
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 8: room and doing these exercises, you know, just getting out

376
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 8: in the field and uh, you know, getting these real reps.

377
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 8: So it felt you know, it felt separate from you know,

378
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 8: the recovery stage of what we were doing indoors.

379
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 9: So it felt nice to get out there and get

380
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 9: to work.

381
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,919
Speaker 1: Did you observe anything about him during that time period

382
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:34,880
Speaker 1: that you didn't already know.

383
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 9: That I didn't already know. Absolutely not.

384
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,679
Speaker 8: I think you know, he's, uh, he's obviously a special player,

385
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,719
Speaker 8: but you know, a special person in the way that

386
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 8: he you know carries himself, in the way that he

387
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 8: goes about his business. You know, had probably every you

388
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 8: know reason in the world with the injury that he

389
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 8: had that probably would have just been it for the season,

390
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,159
Speaker 8: you know, get healthy for next year. But it didn't

391
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 8: you know, change his plan or his process, and he

392
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 8: attacked it and came back even earlier than anybody ever expected.

393
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 8: So it's a credit to him, and it's a credit

394
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 8: to you know, Nick, who he worked with, you know,

395
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 8: day in and day out to heal his tals tow

396
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:18,359
Speaker 8: and get back out there.

397
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:19,120
Speaker 6: Mike.

398
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 1: The five tight ends on the roster have combined for

399
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 1: ninety two catches for more than eight hundred yards and

400
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 1: eight touchdowns. That's pretty productive as a group. What stands

401
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 1: out to you about the tight end room as a whole.

402
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 9: I think it starts with James Casey.

403
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 8: James does a phenomenal job of allowing us to play

404
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 8: and not over coach, but also coaching and giving us

405
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:41,840
Speaker 8: all the information that we need to go out there

406
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:46,199
Speaker 8: and be you know, effective in our roles. This offense

407
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,440
Speaker 8: is great because they allow us all to each kind

408
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 8: of have our own role and then go out and

409
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 8: execute it. And like I said, man, it's just a

410
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,720
Speaker 8: credit to James and the coaches, Zach and Pitch and

411
00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 8: those guys to allow us all to just go out

412
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 8: there and do what we do and you know, help

413
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,479
Speaker 8: be another you know, puzzle piece in our offense.

414
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 1: I think if James case He ever writes a book,

415
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 1: it might be a best seller. The guy's had an

416
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 1: amazing life. Is he one of the more interesting people

417
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:14,360
Speaker 1: that you've ever played for?

418
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:19,360
Speaker 8: James is without a doubt. That's definitely a great way

419
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,360
Speaker 8: to describe him. But then the more that you get

420
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,880
Speaker 8: to know him, he's so intelligent and the way that

421
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 8: he is able to you know, interact with everybody and

422
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,200
Speaker 8: understands how to coach everybody in a in a different

423
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 8: way to you know, to get.

424
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:35,400
Speaker 9: The best out of them.

425
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 8: He obviously played for seven years and so he knows,

426
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 8: you know, how to go about the business and then uh,

427
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 8: you know, off the field stuff just as as a

428
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:48,440
Speaker 8: person as as a guy. Awesome human being, very intelligent,

429
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 8: and I've learned, you know, a ton on the field

430
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:53,879
Speaker 8: and a ton off the field from James Casey.

431
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 1: We're catching up with MIKEASICKI. You were miked up in

432
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 1: the Miami game and when you kind of touchdown pass

433
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: it sounded extremely satisfying. Was that one personal?

434
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 8: It was just you know, I played there for five years,

435
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 8: had a lot of memories there and Uh, So it

436
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 8: was cool to kind of go back to where it

437
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 8: all started and then you know, make that play to

438
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 8: kind of put the final nail on the coffin in

439
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:16,120
Speaker 8: that game.

440
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 9: So that was cool.

441
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,920
Speaker 8: Uh, definitely something that you know, I had envisioned going

442
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:21,679
Speaker 8: into it and then to finally you know, see it

443
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 8: come to fruition.

444
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 9: Was was a lot of fun.

445
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: He faced the Browns this week and one of the

446
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:29,200
Speaker 1: NFL's top defenses number two and fewest yards allowed, number

447
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 1: three in sacks. Is it complicated or just really talented?

448
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 8: I think, you know, the the Browns do what they

449
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 8: do and they do it at a really high level.

450
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 8: They have a lot of talent and all in all,

451
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:44,399
Speaker 8: in all three levels, you know, so there's there's definitely,

452
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 8: you know, they present a lot of challenges, but uh,

453
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,399
Speaker 8: I think, like, you know what, what you were just

454
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 8: kind of getting that right there is you know, it's

455
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,119
Speaker 8: not overly complicated, but it's a lot of talent and

456
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:56,439
Speaker 8: a lot of guys doing their job at a really

457
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 8: high level.

458
00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,280
Speaker 1: Describe what ending the season with a three game winning stream.

459
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 2: Would mean to you.

460
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:02,919
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think it, you know, it would mean a

461
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,199
Speaker 8: lot because it just shows that, you know, the the

462
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,159
Speaker 8: locker room's bought in. It shows that, you know, guys,

463
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 8: even when playoffs are out of reach, that you know,

464
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:12,919
Speaker 8: we're still coming to practice every single day. And it

465
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,000
Speaker 8: starts with Zach and you know, the way that he

466
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 8: coaches this team and the way.

467
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 9: That the message that that he gets across to the guys.

468
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 8: You know, the locker room loves him and he was

469
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 8: willing to go out there and play you know, hard

470
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 8: for him day in and day out. So you know,

471
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:29,360
Speaker 8: it shows a lot about everybody's character. And you know, obviously,

472
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 8: you know when you sign that contract, you know there's

473
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 8: seventeen games that you're you're you know, guaranteed to go

474
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 8: out there and do so this is the seventeenth and

475
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 8: I'm excited.

476
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 1: For final question for you. It's become customary over the

477
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:43,640
Speaker 1: last ten, twenty years whatever for quarterbacks to give their

478
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,159
Speaker 1: offensive lineman christmas gifts tight end spend a lot of

479
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 1: time blocking. Are you guys included around the league?

480
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,880
Speaker 8: No, but I think that you know there's I'll take

481
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 8: all my gifts on Sundays and and that that is

482
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 8: how that is how I view it, and that's the

483
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,919
Speaker 8: only way I want it, because there's a lot of

484
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:03,120
Speaker 8: a lot of things that a lot of good things

485
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 8: that come with all those gifts on Sunday. So I'll

486
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 8: take as many of them, you know, starting in September

487
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,040
Speaker 8: and going all the way through the rest of the season,

488
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:11,120
Speaker 8: not just round Christmas time.

489
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 1: Fossils are nice, but throw me touchdown passes.

490
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:15,919
Speaker 9: That's it. I couldn't agree more.

491
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,200
Speaker 1: Appreciate your time, have a great offseason, and the best

492
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 1: of look going forward.

493
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 9: Appreciate it. Thanks so much.

494
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 1: Finally, it's time for this week's Know the Faux segment.

495
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,880
Speaker 1: The Bengals and Browns have a couple of things in common.

496
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: Number one, Paul Brown as a founder and number two

497
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,880
Speaker 1: a mutual hatred of the Pittsburgh Steelers. So even though

498
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:40,160
Speaker 1: it's been another rough year in Cleveland, the home schedule

499
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,879
Speaker 1: ended on a positive note with last week's thirteen to

500
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 1: six win over Pittsburgh that prevented the Steelers from clinching

501
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,920
Speaker 1: the AFC North, and if Pittsburgh loses this week to Baltimore,

502
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 1: the Steelers won't even make the playoffs. The voice of

503
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,159
Speaker 1: the Browns, Andrew Ciciliano, joined Dave Lapham and me on

504
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,159
Speaker 1: the Bengals game show this week and we started our

505
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,880
Speaker 1: conversation with that upset win last Sunday.

506
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,879
Speaker 6: I'll be honestly, I'm not surprised by the outcome. I

507
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,639
Speaker 6: know that's very easy to say after the fact. I

508
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 6: am kind of surprised the way the game went. Aaron

509
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 6: did not want to get sacked by Miles. Now he

510
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 6: has never wanted to get sacked by Miles. In Week six,

511
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:22,399
Speaker 6: they did a lot of the same things, getting the

512
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 6: ball out quickly, double teaming, sometimes triple teaming, using six

513
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 6: offensive linemen, always having a tight end, sometimes two tight

514
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 6: ends over on Miles side. But there was such an

515
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 6: odd game. I mean, the Browns had fifty two yards

516
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,800
Speaker 6: of offense and two first downs in the second half.

517
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 6: The Steelers had seven of their ten drive end in

518
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 6: Brown's territory, including glass one the turnover run downs, yet

519
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 6: they came away. It was only six points a lot

520
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 6: of the second half. Honestly, I follows if the Browns

521
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 6: were losing, and yet at the end they held on

522
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 6: and won. And yes, I love beating the Steelers, and

523
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 6: so does Mike Tomlin. I'm sorry, so does Kevin Stefanski

524
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 6: at home. He is now five and one at home

525
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:14,399
Speaker 6: against the Steelers. Including four in a row, and the

526
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 6: two teams have split the season series in six of

527
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 6: the last seven years. The last time the Steelers one

528
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 6: in Cleveland with a quarterback other than Ben Roethlisberger was

529
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 6: Week twelve of two thousand and three.

530
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 10: Unbelievable. It's a certain it is it's it's craziness, total,

531
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:41,439
Speaker 10: total absurdity. Okay, the national story is going to be

532
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 10: Miles Garrett. Miles Garrett when coming into Cincinnatis are going

533
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 10: to be able to get that quarterback sack and in

534
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 10: set a new record. What type of a teammate is

535
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:52,120
Speaker 10: Miles Garrett.

536
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,920
Speaker 6: I think he's a great teammate, and I think he's

537
00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 6: an even greater teammate this year. And I want to

538
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 6: be carefully, I'm not suggesting it was a bad teammate

539
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 6: in years in any way at all, but I do

540
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 6: think that he has been an exceptional leader this year

541
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 6: for a very young team. Mason Graham is a baby.

542
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 6: Carson Schwessinger is a baby. There are rookies all over

543
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:23,680
Speaker 6: this locker room. Shardor Sanders and Harold Fannin and Dylan Sampson. Guys.

544
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:27,879
Speaker 6: When Dylan Samson scored a touchdown Week two, in Baltimore.

545
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,919
Speaker 6: He did so on his twenty first birthday. He played

546
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 6: Week one against you, guys at twenty years old. So

547
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 6: this is a team full of babies here, and I

548
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:41,640
Speaker 6: think Miles has been an exceptional leader. Now I don't

549
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 6: know that this was the way he thought the season

550
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 6: would go, with hitting a jet on your two veteran

551
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,919
Speaker 6: quarterbacks by the time you get to week five, I

552
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:51,639
Speaker 6: don't think he saw that coming. And it would be

553
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:55,680
Speaker 6: curious to hear, you know, how he unpacks the season

554
00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:01,160
Speaker 6: next week, next Monday, because Miles hasn't taken a deep

555
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:05,639
Speaker 6: introspective dive about the season, you know, and about the

556
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 6: way things transpired, So that'll be interesting to hear. But

557
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:10,159
Speaker 6: he's been fantastic.

558
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 1: The radio voice of the Browns, Andrew Ciciliano, is our guest.

559
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 1: This is going to be starting number seven for Shador Sanders.

560
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 1: The stats aren't great. Describe what he's done well and

561
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 1: what he's done poorly.

562
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 6: So the last two weeks, guys, the first quarter, the

563
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:31,879
Speaker 6: stuff that's scripted, he's decisive. He's hitting, I mean he

564
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,879
Speaker 6: has seen it and ripping it and they're marching up

565
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 6: and down the field. They've had two beautiful touchdown drives

566
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 6: in the first quarter in each of these last two games.

567
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,439
Speaker 6: In the second half, when defense has changed the picture

568
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 6: a little bit, it gets a little money or he

569
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,639
Speaker 6: is very much a rookie quarterback. When he is on

570
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:55,199
Speaker 6: time and in rhythm, he's pretty good. And he's got

571
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 6: great touch on the football as well, especially on the

572
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 6: downfield throws he has in I don't lazy's the wrong word.

573
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,879
Speaker 6: He's a little slow in his processing sometimes with some

574
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 6: balls over the middle. He's gotten a lot of passes

575
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 6: knocked down the last few weeks, leading the interceptions. One

576
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,719
Speaker 6: of them was yesterday. Get two of them like that

577
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 6: two weeks ago. So on the short stuff, especially over

578
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 6: the middle, he's got to be more decisive. And you

579
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 6: know the old quarterback thing you got you gotta put

580
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 6: that arm up high twelve o'clock. Make sure you're getting that,

581
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,159
Speaker 6: you know, take taking that change off the top shelf

582
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,359
Speaker 6: or whatever the old analogy is. Like the coaches like

583
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 6: to tell you you got to get that arm up there,

584
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 6: because that right now has been an issue. Shador is

585
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 6: a charming kid. He's a bit aloof and I mean

586
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:45,640
Speaker 6: that in an endearing way. I really hadn't met him

587
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 6: because like on Sundays when I worked at Edical Network,

588
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:50,639
Speaker 6: I was always at Direct TV and in at the

589
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,399
Speaker 6: Red Zone channel. I was when Tiana was in the studio,

590
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 6: and if anyone brought their families rund it was always

591
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 6: on Sunday. So I introduced myself to Shador after they

592
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 6: drafted them, and I did a sit down with them

593
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 6: for Cleveland Browns, and then you know, we connected the

594
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 6: dots and hey, I used to work with Dad and

595
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 6: all of that. I had no idea what to expect.

596
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:06,639
Speaker 6: I was blown away by him. I was back in

597
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:10,320
Speaker 6: April beyond charming. Obviously there's been a lot of ups

598
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,200
Speaker 6: and downs since then. He's still got that million dollar

599
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,479
Speaker 6: smile and he's still a charming kid. It is just

600
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 6: going through the ups and downs of being a rookie quarterback.

601
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 6: Jackson Darts when he first got on the field, I mean,

602
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 6: he was the savior, he was a franchise. He could

603
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:28,119
Speaker 6: have run from Mayor and obviously now you see the

604
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 6: ups and downs of all of that. So he's going

605
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:31,920
Speaker 6: through the same things.

606
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,200
Speaker 1: All right, Andrew. That leads to this question. Right now,

607
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,719
Speaker 1: the Browns have the sixth pick in the draft. They

608
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 1: also have Jacksonville's first round pick, number twenty eight overall.

609
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 1: Will they take will they take a quarterback?

610
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 6: Next year?

611
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 2: What do you think?

612
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 6: No clue? And here's here's why I have truly no clue,

613
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 6: because as we sit here, let's be pragmatic. What's the

614
00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 6: decision making process going to look like? You know, there

615
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 6: are things that are very much up in the air.

616
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 6: Jimmy Haslam said last August during training camp that hey,

617
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:09,239
Speaker 6: you got to see both rooky quarterbacks, but we got

618
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 6: to win more than three games. Okay, well now they've

619
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 6: won four. Obviously, you guys here the coaching carousel and

620
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 6: all the rumors and who knows what's going to happen,

621
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:22,760
Speaker 6: So I don't know what next year will look like.

622
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 6: That is not rooting for any moves to be made.

623
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 6: I think Kevin Stefanski and Andrew Barry are both exceptional,

624
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 6: and I would bring them both back. That's just me.

625
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 6: But who knows what's going to happen. And I don't

626
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 6: think you can truly make any kind of projection on

627
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 6: Shador until you know who's making those decisions.

628
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 10: Kevin Stefanski is probably you know then Ice. I guess

629
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 10: a lot of fans. You know, you hear fans saying

630
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 10: they don't want any part of him returning to the

631
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 10: Cleveland Browns or whatever. If Kevin Stefanski were to move on,

632
00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 10: would Jim Schwartz be a viable candidate to be a

633
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 10: head coach? And what do you think his coaching can

634
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 10: build me and his ability to connect with players?

635
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 6: You know, it's a great question, and I don't know.

636
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 6: My gut tells me Jim Schwartz would would certainly welcome

637
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 6: the opportunity to be a head coach. Again. I know

638
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 6: his defense loves him. I know everyone in the building, Yeah,

639
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,000
Speaker 6: loves him. He's had an exceptional job. This defense has

640
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 6: since he got here been near the top of the league,

641
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 6: and in twenty twenty three was the number one defense

642
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 6: in the NFL, and they rode that defense into the postseason.

643
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 6: I support Kevin and Jim Schwartz and Andrew Berry as

644
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 6: the best draft class period period This year in the NFL.

645
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 6: Carson Squassinger will be defensive Rookie of the Year. Quinn

646
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 6: Shawn Judkins was heading to a one thousand yard season

647
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:45,240
Speaker 6: before the injury. Jilan Samson has made plays. Mason Graham,

648
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 6: I mean it's a defensive tackle. The stats don't show it,

649
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 6: but he's played exceptionally well as well. I am for

650
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 6: keeping the band together, but Jim Schwartz deserves his phone

651
00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 6: to ring certainly.

652
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 1: Here's a quick invitation to join Lapan Wayne box Miller

Speaker 1: receiver outside the numerals at about three hundred and fifty pounds.

660
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 11: Burrow throws Cody Ford catches. He's down to the fifty

661
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:36,160

664

665
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:54,960

666
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 12: a big, big player out there at the wide receiver
