1 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:15,680 Speaker 1: And we welcome you into a victory Monday. The Browns 2 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: are two and two for the first time since two 3 00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 1: thousand and fourteen, first place in the a f C North. 4 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 1: And last week the sky wasn't falling, and yesterday we 5 00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: kind of proved the sky clearly isn't falling. Is the 6 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,839 Speaker 1: Browns go into Baltimore and they knock off the Ravens 7 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:37,280 Speaker 1: forty five. I'm Jason Gibbs, He's Nick Shook, He's Andrew 8 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: Gribble and gentleman. An impressive day in Barria, I'm sorry 9 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:48,839 Speaker 1: in Baltimore, i should say, And it's a happensive day today. No, 10 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 1: it's not out, not out yet. I'm hoping later today 11 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: it will be uh. An impressive win in Baltimore. And 12 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: you can say what you want, but it is always 13 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 1: nice when fans at the other stadium are leaving long 14 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 1: before the game ends, and that's how you know you've 15 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: dominated them. And yesterday they were leaving a good three 16 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 1: or four minutes into the fourth quarter. Yeah, and it 17 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: was it was one of those games that there was 18 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 1: moments like this last year when you you saw the 19 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,960 Speaker 1: team turning it around where you had that moment of 20 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 1: adversity in the fourth quarter where you're leading shrinks to six, 21 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: the Ravens got that two point conversion, and you're like, oh, 22 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: this is that. We've seen this situation before, and we've 23 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 1: seen the Browns be on the wrong end of the 24 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,680 Speaker 1: result by the end of it. And I think that 25 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: feeling settled over a lot of people. Especial people are like, 26 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 1: all right, this team's one and two. They've been struggling, 27 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: but like they did last year with exercising a lot 28 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: of those demons, the Browns exercise that big demon right away, 29 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: didn't waste any time with Nick Chubbs eight eight year run, 30 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: and that was it. I mean, there were there were 31 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: more opportunities for the Ravens to get back in that 32 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 1: game after two touchdowns, but that is a Baltimore team 33 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: that has not equipped to be coming back from double 34 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 1: digit leads in the fourth quarters. So the defense really 35 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: took it from there. So I just thought getting past 36 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: that kind of moment of adversity was so big for 37 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 1: this team, especially in a division game. To be two 38 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: into the difference between two and two and one and 39 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,639 Speaker 1: three is just so massive. And now you get to 40 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,959 Speaker 1: going to San Francisco, feeling really good about what you're doing. 41 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: You know, it's funny because I think old Browns and 42 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 1: maybe old Brown's mindset that some of us still have 43 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: ingrained in our conscience. Um and are I think that 44 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: we all were like, oh no, here it goes this. Here, 45 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: here's where it unravels. One person in the radio, both 46 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: thinking when it got down to six, here's where it 47 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 1: unravels in the fourth quarter, and what should have been 48 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 1: a great win turns into a loss. That's not what happened, 49 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: but that is what happened to this team three weeks ago. 50 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: I mean, almost the exact same scenario. The Browns come 51 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: down and cut Tennessee's lead to a single score, and 52 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: then Tennessee responds at the seventy five yeards screen to 53 00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry for a touchdown, and that took the wind 54 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 1: out of brown sales. They do that exact thing to 55 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: the Ravens again on the road, and and I think, 56 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: you know, it was obviously the difference in this game, 57 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: but it was just refreshing to see this team that 58 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 1: you know, has had such high expectations and has dealt 59 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 1: with so much I think outside noise and adversity that 60 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: comes from that to band together and immediately respond and 61 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: then carry it all the way through the rest of 62 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: the quarter. I mean, yeah, did that kind of ice 63 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 1: the game, Yes, but you still needed to finish out 64 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 1: that quarter to make sure, and they piled on and 65 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: really made a statement by the time everything was over. 66 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 1: It's good to win by fifteen and know that the 67 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: margin was wider if not for a garbage time touchdown 68 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: Like That's that's when you know. It's gonna kind of 69 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: remind me of the Bengals game last year when you 70 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: went into since that and dominated that game, where the 71 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: final score didn't do it justice. You can say that 72 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: about this game. This was a really in totally for 73 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: eighteen victory. I mean you you dominated Baltimore in their stadium, 74 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: a Baltimore team that up until this point had been 75 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: playing some really good football. All right, let's get right 76 00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: into it. Takeaways from Sunday, your biggest takeaway on the 77 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: offense and your game ball on offense shook. We're gonna 78 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: start with I'm gonna go away from the popular picks here, 79 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: which is that you know this offense is in sync 80 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: now in the running game everything else. I'm gonna go 81 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 1: with the offensive line. And I'm gonna go because yes, 82 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: and I'm sorry, but the difference is so drastic. I mean, 83 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: I think Chris Hubbard is a solid football player, He's 84 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: not at all pro tackle, but when he has included 85 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: in that group, this this starting five just becomes so 86 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: much more reliable. They protect longer, they're more stout up front, 87 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: you get less penetration from the opposing defenses, and it 88 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: allows Baker Mayfield the time necessary to work and and 89 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: I mean he looked comfortable after that first series. That 90 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: first series looked more of the same. And then they 91 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: came out in the second uh their second possession and 92 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: really had probably their best drive up to that point 93 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 1: of the entire season. It was methodical, it was it 94 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: was well paced, they had a rhythm, They looked very 95 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: confident in what they were doing, and finished it with 96 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: a well designed play that got RHISI Is Jones open 97 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: for a touchdown. And that all comes back to the 98 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 1: offensive line's ability to open holes in the running game 99 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 1: and to block consistently for Baker Mayfield. For the first 100 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 1: time this season, he looked like he trusted them entirely 101 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 1: when he got the when he received the snap and 102 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 1: drop back to pass, and I think that made all 103 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,279 Speaker 1: the difference in the world for this team. So yeah, 104 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 1: everything else worked. You know, all the skill players worked 105 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: very well, but I don't think you anywhere without the 106 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: offensive line the way they played on Sunday. I'll go 107 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: with Baker Mayfield because I think that, as he answered 108 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: it in the press conference, the play calling always looks 109 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 1: better when the quarterback doesn't suck, and I thought that 110 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: he very much did not suck against the Ravens. And 111 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 1: I thought that that that drive that you just talked 112 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: about was that. I know he's only a second year player, 113 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 1: but that was vintage Brown's Baker on that second drive, 114 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: throwing passes passes to six different wide receivers. That's that's 115 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: what has been missing. I mean, he was throwing it 116 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: to the open guy. They're easy throws. There was no 117 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: kind of not even really a tight window throw that 118 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:56,840 Speaker 1: you had to make their taken with the defense gave 119 00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 1: him and marched them right down the field, even though 120 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: you did face a first and on that drive, I 121 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 1: mean it was that That's exactly what people have been 122 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: clamoring for and it's what he gave you. And him 123 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 1: playing well just opens up everything. Baker kind of carried 124 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 1: you in the first half offensively, the Nick Chubb took 125 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 1: over in the second half, and and even then Baker 126 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,799 Speaker 1: sprinkled in a couple of big plays in the passing 127 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 1: game in the second half to really get you down 128 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 1: the field in a hurry. The first drive out a halftime, 129 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: you go three place seventy five yards. I mean, when 130 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 1: he is good, this is a really good offense. He 131 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 1: wasn't as good as he wanted to be those first 132 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: three games. He was what you expected. I don't even 133 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 1: put that interception on him in the first half, so 134 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: I view it as a one touchdown, no interception kind 135 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 1: of game. I can't put that on him. Uh. And 136 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 1: so it's just this is what the offense should look 137 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 1: like when you have your quarterback, your franchise quarterback playing 138 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 1: at that level. All you gotta do in Chubb, we trust. 139 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 1: Give the ball to Chubb. I right before halftime, you 140 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: take a look at what happened inside the ten yard 141 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: line and Baker with a running play. But three pass 142 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: plays are two past plays. You have to kick the 143 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,919 Speaker 1: field goal, and you're just banging your head on the 144 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: window going give the ball to the man. Give the 145 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: ball to the guy. Well, Freddie said, relax, We're going 146 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: to give the ball to for to Nick Chub. And 147 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: they did twenty carries, a hundred sixty five yards, three touchdowns, 148 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 1: eight yard touchdown, which is the third longest in team history. 149 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: He owns two of the top three runs, the plays 150 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: that he makes, the things he does, three catches in 151 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: the football game as well, some really key blocks as well, 152 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: not just from him, but from the running backs in 153 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: the back in the backfield as well on blitz pickups. Uh. 154 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: An outstanding game for him. Uh. And I credited all 155 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: to the Andrew Gribble pregame interview on radio and uh, 156 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: that's the reason not to pat myself on the back 157 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: from the award winning edition edition of Factor Fiction. Before 158 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: the game, but one of the questions was is was 159 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: Nick Chubb getting too many snaps the week before? Is 160 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 1: that not good? And I said, fact, I thought he 161 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: played too much against the Rooms. Uh, you don't want 162 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: your bell cow running back on the field for all 163 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: but two plays, which is what happened the previous week. 164 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 1: I thought there was maybe, uh they want him to 165 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: be a third down back And it was almost an overcorrection. 166 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: You had it back to normal this week on a 167 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: hot day, and all of a sudden, he looks like 168 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,239 Speaker 1: the freshest guy in the field. In the fourth quarter, 169 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: you had a big performance from don Chell Hilliard who 170 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,679 Speaker 1: helped ice the game away even further in the fourth quarter, 171 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: had some really good burst on some past plays. That's 172 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: the kind of balance you want it running back, because 173 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 1: you want your your running back not to be worn 174 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,079 Speaker 1: out at the end of the game. Not saying he 175 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: was worn out against the Rams, but he was out 176 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 1: running everyone on that big carry, and you gotta credited 177 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,680 Speaker 1: to the mixed usage that him and Dontrelle had out there. Yeah, 178 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: it's funny. And you thought as we got in that 179 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: fourth quarter that he might, you know, run out of gas, 180 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: be a little bit tired, especially after the long run. 181 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 1: He never got tired, And I mean that that's a 182 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 1: testament tow he works in the offseason. The way he's built. 183 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: If you look at the guy and just the way 184 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: he's physically built, he's thick. I mean, he's built for this. 185 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: He's built run through multiple defenders before going down, and 186 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: then also has that speed, that ability to really hit 187 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,439 Speaker 1: that extra gear and go the distance. But I do 188 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: want to give credit one more point to Eric Kush 189 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: who had a great block on that a d R 190 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 1: a d R touchdown run. You know, they run a 191 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 1: quick toss to the right. He pulls out in front. 192 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: JC tried to trying to pull out behind him, which 193 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: the center pull outs. Always an ambitious endeavor. And uh 194 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: and Eric goes out, kicks the first man he engages out, 195 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 1: and then as the flow of the play continues this way, 196 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 1: he immediately meets the second guy, takes care of both 197 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: of them, pushes him outside. Chub does a great job 198 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: of reading that block, going off his inside hip and 199 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: right up the field the rest of its history. It 200 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 1: was a very impressive job by the offensive line yesterday. 201 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: Really really job well done on the defensive side of 202 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: the wall. Take away your game balls as well, Gripple. 203 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 1: I mean, I'll give the the easy game ball to 204 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,559 Speaker 1: Germaine Whitehead. I mean he was all over the field. 205 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: I don't think he had a great first three games 206 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 1: this season, had a few too many penalties. Uh, maybe 207 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: he wasn't matching what he had done in the preseason, 208 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: but he came out and was just all over the place. 209 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,680 Speaker 1: Four the fumble made the great interception in the end zone. 210 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: I mean, this is the kind of player that we've 211 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: been hearing Steve Wilkes talk about all ever since he 212 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: got here, and I think that it's just another it's 213 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: symbolic of this entire secondary, which it was again without 214 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: three starters, and you wouldn't have noticed. I mean, there 215 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 1: wasn't a single play where they looked like they got beat. Uh. 216 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 1: They limited Hollywood Brown. He never really broke out in 217 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 1: any kind of way of that game. Uh. Lamar Jackson 218 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: never really had too many open throws. I said. The 219 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: one open throw he had was to a guy that 220 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: stepped out of bounce before making the play. So I mean, 221 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: outside of that, you your secondary just did another fantastic 222 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: job for a second straight week, led by Jermaine Whitehead, 223 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 1: and you finally it looked like that was a Ravens 224 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: team that was not going to turn the ball over 225 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, you forced three turnovers against 226 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: team that came in the game was zero turn overs. 227 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 1: That was just a huge effort from the defense. Yeah, 228 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: and and they were timely turnovers. I think every turnovers 229 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: has somewhat of a timeliness to it. But it seemed 230 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: you know the forced fumble that that Whitehead caused. I mean, 231 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: then were driving, they were gonna come down and immediately 232 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: answered with the browns ha done offensively and then you 233 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 1: immediately get that turnover and then go down and turn 234 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: that into points, which is very important as well. But 235 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: I think my game ball is tough because I kind 236 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 1: of want to pick two guys here. Joe Schobert statistically 237 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 1: crazy excellent game seventeen combined tackles, a sack uh one 238 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 1: qpe hit two tackles for a loss. I mean, fum, yeah, yeah, 239 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 1: he had the first bit he hit Ingram and then 240 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: Whitehead cleaned it up and that's when he forced the 241 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: ball out just before Ingram hit the ground. Great team 242 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: effort there. But you know what, I'll tell you what, 243 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 1: this is probably a two game thing for me. Now. 244 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 1: Larry Ogunjob's really stood out. I mean when you just 245 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 1: watch the game and you watch what he's doing in 246 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: the interior. He's not the biggest guy, but he's quick 247 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: and he's winning with his quickness and his strength and 248 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 1: his hand ability. He's got these, you know, very masterful 249 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 1: hands that allows him to beat guys off the line. 250 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: He destroyed Baltimore's right guard on a specific play yesterday 251 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:48,959 Speaker 1: where he just had such a quick swim move and 252 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: he was in the backfield before you could even blink 253 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: and made a tackle for loss. So you know, he's 254 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: had a good string of games here and he really 255 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 1: stood out to me. So Joe Schobert win statistically, but 256 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 1: Larry looks really good on tape, and so it could 257 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,839 Speaker 1: be a tie. It's always good when the Browns defense 258 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: gets four sacks and Myles Garrett didn't have one of them. 259 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: I mean that was that was a we We saw 260 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 1: oliv Yeah, I saw Olivia Vernon got involved. Uh you 261 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: see even Tamarius Randall another that's now three sacks this 262 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: season by safetyes on this team. So something to keep 263 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: an eye on the safety blitz. It's always it's usually 264 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,199 Speaker 1: it's called well. Steve Wilks always calls at the right time. 265 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:21,839 Speaker 1: It always works. Olivia could have come out with a 266 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: second one, but Lamar did a Houdini act to get 267 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: that pass out. I mean that that was incredible, but 268 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: so big. I thought it was a big performance from 269 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: Olivia Vernon and really this defensive line again equally as 270 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 1: deep as the secondary you had by far the most 271 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,599 Speaker 1: snaps of all of the entire season played by the 272 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 1: backup defensive lineman. Devorah Lawrence was out there for twenty 273 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: nine snaps. Chris Smith, I think Chad Thomas had the 274 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 1: fewest of the backup defensive linement was still about twenty 275 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 1: and he made a big place scooping up that fumble. Well, 276 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 1: and that's where I was going on with my game 277 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: ball was those backup defensive alignment because midway through the 278 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: third quarter, our guys were gassed. Yeah, yeah, our starters 279 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 1: and then they kind of subbed everybody out and that 280 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: that that second you know, line did exactly what you 281 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 1: wanted it to do. Pick up the pick up the slack, 282 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: give the guys a breather, and created created a big turnal. Yeah. 283 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 1: Devereaux was again an animal when he came in. He was, 284 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: in fact, he was so effective and a certain stretch 285 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: of plays that people in the press box were wondering, 286 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: oh is that was Sheldon on that play? Right? No, 287 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: that was nine, not quite as big, but just as effective. 288 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 1: So yeah, the the depth up front is definitely showing. Yeah, impressive, 289 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: and then in special teams they just continue to make plays. 290 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: Cybert two for two on field goals seven for seven 291 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: now on the year, Yah, I mean eight of nine 292 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 1: on extra points. Scottish Hammer didn't have his best net day, 293 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 1: but I didn't have to do much. Didn't have to Yeah, 294 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 1: exactly what you want from your putterer, A nice quiet 295 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: afternoon on the sideline. I thought Cybert's under underrated moment 296 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:53,839 Speaker 1: of the game was Cybert's long field goal there in 297 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,960 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, making making that a fifteen point game. 298 00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: I thought that was significant and that was one of 299 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 1: those where if you this that that that could also 300 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 1: turn into a momentum swing for Baltimore there where they're 301 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 1: not quite dead yet. But that field goal there, I 302 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,199 Speaker 1: thought was big because it just gives you, even though 303 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 1: it's still a two possession game, it gives you just 304 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: a little bit more breathing room where you felt where 305 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 1: you felt better about your lead. Yeah, because you feel 306 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,440 Speaker 1: in that situation, even if they were able to make 307 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: up those fifteen points, they would have to do so 308 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: by getting that two point in version, which they would 309 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: obviously go for or understandably most you know, usually go 310 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: for the second time they would score. It just makes 311 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: the task that much greater for them to eat race 312 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 1: the deficit, so the mental aspect of it, both the 313 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 1: boost and confidence for him to be able to hit 314 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: from distance, which he's proven he's actually better from longer 315 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 1: field goals than shorter um and and remaining perfect on 316 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 1: the on the year as a field goal kicker, and 317 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 1: then you know, winning that mental side as well, it 318 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: really helped all right, unsung hero, who's the guy or 319 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 1: I guess maybe the position group we can lob in 320 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: there too, uh, that had a bigger impact than maybe 321 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: worked what we're talking about here today. I'll go with 322 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: the Browns tight ends as a whole. I think that 323 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 1: that they've been putting a tough spot without David Njoku, 324 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 1: and I know Ricky Seals Jones is the guy that 325 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: made the big plays in this game, but that group 326 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: as a whole, all of them played a bunch. I 327 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: think that Ricky Seals Jones had the fewest snaps of 328 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: the group with like twenty one, But Farrell Brown was 329 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: out there more than he's ever been. And I think 330 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: Demetriz Harris didn't play as much as he did the 331 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 1: previous week, but he played the majority of plays and 332 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 1: that allowed you It showed that there was more trust 333 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: in going with two tight end packages, which, if the 334 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: numbers showed, that's what Baker likes playing out of perhaps 335 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 1: the most. And it showed that after maybe being a 336 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 1: little bit reluctant to put those guys in pass catching situations, 337 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: all of them were out there running routes, giving Baker 338 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: some options and he did not hesitate to throw. I 339 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: thought the most impressive moment was when Baker threw a 340 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: back shoulder throw to if Ricky Seals Jones on third down. 341 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 1: That takes timing, trust, chemistry, and that that's the guy 342 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: that's been on the team for only a few a 343 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: few weeks, and he showed this past game. I don't 344 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 1: know if I want Ricky Seals Jones out there blocking 345 00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: for me on third and one, but he's a four 346 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: A wide receiver, has good hands, and he looks like 347 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: a wide receiver when he has the ball in his hands. 348 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: And I thought that was an impressive game, and he 349 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 1: gives you the element that you're missing with David Najoku out. 350 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: He's not the same kind of talent that David Najoku is, 351 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: but he has the pass catching ability that can really 352 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: help you out in his absence. Yeah, it's funny that 353 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: the we all saw, you know, the impact that Seals 354 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 1: Jones made, and seemed like every catching made was important, 355 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: which which I think is key. Freddie talked about it afterwards, 356 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: Uh that you know, he wasn't surprised because he knew 357 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 1: what he could do. I mean, when you see a 358 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 1: guy like that on the waiver wire, you do everything 359 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: you can do get him. And I think they were 360 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: very pleased to get him at the time, and he's 361 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 1: obviously proving he's worth now. It amazes I mean, what 362 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: were the Browns on the waiver wire? On that waiver 363 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: wire seventeen? Yeah, and you know what, It was pointed 364 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: out yesterday by Bob Blabriol of the Steelers. The Steelers 365 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 1: put in a claim for Ricky Seals Jones too, so 366 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 1: he would have gone to Pittsburgh had the Browns not 367 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: claimed him. And the Steelers just had to trade a 368 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: fifth round pick to get a backup tight end. One's 369 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: going to happen, and I think Xavier Grimbles out for 370 00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: the season, so they had to make a move and 371 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: they had to give up another draft pick for a 372 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 1: backup tight end. So, uh, double double score there by 373 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 1: getting a guy that can help you out and hurts 374 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 1: the Steelers and then on the Farrell bround side. You know, 375 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:10,679 Speaker 1: he had to catch the week before it was negated 376 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: by penalty. So I saw it in the locker room 377 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: after I go, hey, congrats, you gotta catch that wasn't 378 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:16,199 Speaker 1: taken away. He said, yeah, I caught it. I got 379 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: up and I looked around and I was looking in 380 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 1: all directions. Is there a flag? Oh no, okay, this 381 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 1: is a catch. I'm actually gonna keep this. That was 382 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: a big one. D that, yes, and then ended up 383 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: scoring that drive. Not too shabby, hero, Mr s I'm 384 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 1: gonna go with a surprise, and it's gonna be Odell 385 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 1: Beckham Jr. Because statistically he didn't have a great game, 386 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: but his presence on the field the Ravens always had 387 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: to account for it. I mean from the start of 388 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 1: the game all the way to the end. And there 389 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,880 Speaker 1: were many times where him being there opened up things 390 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:53,159 Speaker 1: for everybody else. Uh. The most notable one is the 391 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: Ricky Seals Jones touchdown catch. You know, they run a 392 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 1: mesh play. Beckham runs the drag to the right. You 393 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 1: got they got linebackers and zone. The middle linebacker sees 394 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,439 Speaker 1: him crossing as Ricky is crossing, Beckham's crossing and he 395 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 1: sees thirteen and he starts to take a step and 396 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: a half toward that, towards Beckham, and by that point 397 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 1: he's given Seals Jones five yards. He's got his momentum, 398 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,199 Speaker 1: he's already moving by the time the passes out there, 399 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: there's no one to defend me that he walks into 400 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 1: the ad zone for a touchdown. That's the type of 401 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 1: effect you can have on the field, even if you're 402 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 1: not making those catches. They played good defense on him 403 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 1: for the most part throughout that game, and that's why 404 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: he was limited to his stat line that he had, 405 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: which is, you know, two catches twenty yards on seven targets. 406 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:32,440 Speaker 1: But all the other open space that was created by 407 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: them paying attention, even Seals Jones other catch, the long 408 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: catch down the sideline was a product of the Ravens 409 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 1: trying to double team Odell Beckham. So, I mean, sometimes 410 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: it's not statistic, but it's it's on the field and 411 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 1: and it's obvious when you watch it, and Nodell Beckham 412 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 1: has that impact on every game. We want to talk about. 413 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 1: Waiver claims my unsung hero. You know, we're talking about 414 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 1: Seals Jones, but Cadarrel Hodge time in and time again, 415 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 1: he's down the field and he's the first one making 416 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 1: the stop. It's either him or Tavy or Thomas every 417 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,239 Speaker 1: time down the field on special teams and Hodge just 418 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,440 Speaker 1: the Ravens could not break anything. And back to back 419 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: weeks you're going up against elite special teams units and 420 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 1: he's a big reason why they were held and check 421 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 1: yet again special teams where and make Preefer said at 422 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 1: the end of last week, the reason that these guys 423 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 1: are so good at at special teams, which is usually 424 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 1: a chore for most players you think about it would 425 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: be a choice because they love it. They just want 426 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: to be out there and be the best at it. 427 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 1: And I think you're seeing the product of that. Said, 428 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 1: he was one of the best gunners in the NFL, 429 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: and he couldn't believe that he got released by the Rams. 430 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,400 Speaker 1: So it's it's a good fine to have. I think 431 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: he definitely has a place on this team moving forward 432 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 1: no matter what, because you've you've just come so far 433 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:48,239 Speaker 1: on special teams, uh in in one year, that you've 434 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:52,159 Speaker 1: got to keep all these guys in place. An impressive 435 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 1: performance as well. Obviously the big injury from yesterday Jarvis 436 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 1: Landry and concussion protocol. We'll see how things play out 437 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 1: with him as the week goes. I mean, if you 438 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 1: you're Freddie and company on the offensive side, you're hoping 439 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 1: that Antonio Callaway is in playing shape and and ready 440 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: to go here for whatever might face the Browns one 441 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 1: week from today when we go to San Francisco, and 442 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,440 Speaker 1: you're hoping that Hollywood Higgins is finally able to get 443 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,640 Speaker 1: back on the on the field as well. Yeah, it'd 444 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:25,439 Speaker 1: helped to have both those guys back. It might be 445 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 1: hard to expect a ton out of Callaway being his 446 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 1: first action since the suspension, but he's got to be 447 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,680 Speaker 1: ready to go. I just wouldn't expect a full workload 448 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,399 Speaker 1: and at least initially for him. But you do have 449 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 1: the extra day with Jarvis. Not saying that it'll make 450 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 1: a difference, but this those things always help. Not a 451 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: lot of guys come back from a concussion after a week, 452 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: but it's happened before, so if you can have him back, 453 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 1: it would be huge for the offensive. Not you still 454 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: have Vodell Beckham, he still could have Chard Higgins out there. 455 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: You Shoull. You should be fine. David Ratley has been 456 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 1: been solid. You should have enough to to believe you 457 00:20:58,280 --> 00:20:59,919 Speaker 1: can go into San Francisco and do what you just 458 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: it in Baltimore. It's kind of it was a little 459 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: bit eye opening and mean when you were just listening 460 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 1: to those names that the Browns haven't had Antonio Accalay, 461 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: Richard Higgins and even you know, for a quarter yesterday 462 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry and the fact that they could put at 463 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: these points that they did. I mean, they've been making 464 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: do and that's part of a big part of the 465 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,159 Speaker 1: process of being a winning team in the NFL over 466 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: the course of a seventeen week season is being able 467 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: to adjust in the fly when you know you lose 468 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 1: guys like that, whether it's the injury or suspension or 469 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 1: whatever else. And so far they're doing a good job 470 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: of it. Yeah, the key name to watch is Ratley 471 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 1: because it sounded like Freddie Kitchens was applauding him yesterday 472 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: after the game. Because he he has the ability to 473 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: play all three positions. So if you have Higgins back, 474 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 1: ideally you put Ratley where Jarvis's and Higgins back in 475 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 1: his old spot, and then you should be all right, Yeah, 476 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: I think we watch and wait. Sheldon Richardson got dinged 477 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 1: up a little bit, but he came back to action. Uh. 478 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: And if it's something like a hand, that's the best 479 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: position where I guess he's yeah, I mean, we'll we'll 480 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,160 Speaker 1: see what happens. But it's he's not a wide receiver, 481 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: even though Devereaux looks like one. Catching that reflected it 482 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 1: was pretty impressive. Yeah, a job well done. This is 483 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: gonna be a weird week again. You know, we practice 484 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: on Tuesday off Wednesday, and then it's a Thursday, Friday, 485 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: Saturday type practice schedule. And then we got to fly 486 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 1: to the West Coast. And for personal reasons, I love 487 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 1: going in extra day early. We will not be going 488 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 1: in extra day early. We will get in Sunday night 489 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: and we will play on Monday night, West Coast. There's 490 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: a lot of factors here. It's it does not get 491 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,639 Speaker 1: any easier for this football team. Uh. And then a 492 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: quick turnaround with Seattle. We're not looking to Seattle yet. 493 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: Seattle plays Thursday too, so they're gonna have ten days. Yeah, 494 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 1: that's this. This forty nine or week is gonna be 495 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 1: a little different and a little weird. I think for 496 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 1: this football I I go back to last year, this 497 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:43,880 Speaker 1: team's best games have at all happened on the road. 498 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 1: I mean, some of the best performances under Baker Mayfield, 499 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: Freddie Kitchens and and and company all on the road. 500 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 1: I think they've had a couple of I think their 501 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:54,639 Speaker 1: best home game was the Falcons game, maybe followed up 502 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: by that Panthers game. Otherwise, you know, you had the 503 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:00,679 Speaker 1: Bengals on the road, that Broncos game on the road. Uh. 504 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 1: You know, it's just one of those things where they 505 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:04,160 Speaker 1: just seem a little bit more dialed in, a little 506 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,719 Speaker 1: more focused. And I don't even know what the records are. 507 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 1: I can't imagine when the last time the Browns open 508 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 1: the season three and oh on the road, and for 509 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:13,880 Speaker 1: two and O on the road right right now, oh 510 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:15,239 Speaker 1: to at home to and on the road. So it's 511 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 1: not a bad thing that we're gonna be hitting the 512 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,120 Speaker 1: road again this week, all right? What do we look 513 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,680 Speaker 1: for as the Browns get ready for the forty Niners? 514 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 1: Will preview the forty Niners later in the week, But 515 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 1: you know, what are some things that you're watching for 516 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: this week? In practice? What do we gotta work on Well, 517 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 1: it's interesting. I mean, this seems like an easy answer, 518 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: but what do you do in the secondary when you 519 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,640 Speaker 1: start getting these guys back? Can you just go back 520 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 1: to not playing these guys who have played so well 521 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: these last couple of weeks. I mean, I'm not saying 522 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,640 Speaker 1: I mean Denzel Ward's back. You put a Denzel Ward 523 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,680 Speaker 1: in the field. Greedy Williams is back. You put Greedy 524 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 1: on the field. But it's just it's it's just gonna 525 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 1: be interesting to see how things shake out, especially with 526 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: Jermaine White had if Morgan Burnettes are able to come back. 527 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: Jermaine White has played so well, He's still out there 528 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 1: for a lot of three safety looks. But you're gonna 529 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 1: be cutting down a decent chunk of playing time for 530 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: a secondary that's really kept you in the game. Both 531 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: of these games really just shut down, not really shut down, 532 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 1: but limited what these other teams do best. So once 533 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 1: you start getting guys healthy, it'll be interesting to see 534 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: how after what you do after you've been so impressed 535 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 1: by by guys that have played. Yeah, you know, we've 536 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 1: shared praise on John Dorsey for the work he's done 537 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 1: in reshaping this roster and getting big name talents like 538 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 1: drivers Landry and Adell Beckham and and you know everybody else. 539 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:26,160 Speaker 1: But wow, what a job he's done with his defense 540 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 1: and especially the secondary I mean deeper and and and 541 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,199 Speaker 1: it just as much credit goes as Steve Wilkes are 542 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: putting him in the perfect positions to make plays. But 543 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 1: I mean, this is way deeper of a group than 544 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 1: I think we realized. And they've really proven their worth 545 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 1: in the last two weeks, no question about it. All right, 546 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 1: we will get ready four week number five of the 547 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 1: two thousand and nineteen football season. Another trip to Monday 548 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,919 Speaker 1: Night and a trip to San Francisco to take on 549 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 1: the forty nights.
