He's the 4 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:24,799 Speaker 1: Z that stands for his girl, Nick Shook, Gribble, Gribble, 5 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 1: did you not have the hat on today? Overcast? Hood 6 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 1: on for the rain? It did rain for a little bit, 7 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 1: coming down trerenially out there. Yeah, and this is the barge, 8 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 1: so we got that going for us. Uh and the 9 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 1: Browns and Lions will play for that, you know, fourth 10 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 1: preseason game. Don't you dare say it's meaningless? Last I 11 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: didn't say it. I didn't say there's always a big 12 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: Will you properly title the game? Gibbs? It's the Great 13 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 1: Lakes Classic? Okay, it's going to be classic. Otherwise know 14 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: it's the Battle of the Barge. Thank you. That's what 15 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: I said. That it's I took this off of the 16 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 1: shelf by the way of one John Dorsey last night, 17 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 1: who promptly came running out of his office to try 18 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 1: to stop me. Really yeah, but so don't tell me 19 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 1: this thing doesn't mean anything. Let me ask you a 20 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: question means so much that there's two of these. There 21 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 1: are two. Yes, sorry, blow the cover. The Lions have 22 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: a copy. Let me ask you a question. Though you 23 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: take this out of his office, he comes running out 24 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: after you. How do you? How is it here? Then? 25 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 1: I imagine if the do want this? I want this. 26 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 1: I explained what I was doing. I said, I promise 27 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: I will bring this back, but I need this as 28 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: a prop for our broadcasts yesterday and today. So you 29 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: just went in there, No, not in his office. The 30 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:44,199 Speaker 1: shelf is just outside his office. It's like a sitting area, which, 31 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: by the way, the shelf is above my head. So 32 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: like to pull this down now? It is not. It 33 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: is not. You should have told me because I pulled 34 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: it down first yesterday and then put it back up 35 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: there for photos. I would have just left it. I 36 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: would have brought it here myself. I grabbed Carmen. It was. 37 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 1: It was a sight to behold. I had imagine Dorsey 38 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 1: making fun of both of us. That's what we're doing this. So, uh, 39 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 1: we're wrapping up training camp. We're wrapping up the preseason today, 40 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 1: the final practice tomorrow, a little walk through Thursday, preseason 41 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 1: game number four, and then it all begins. For real. 42 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: So we wanted to come up with a few awards 43 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: that we wanted to hand out to everybody, and why 44 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: not a better place to do it than with this 45 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: panel right here. With that being said, let's get things 46 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: going a little preface. Though we were promised emails before 47 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:40,239 Speaker 1: the show totally with these awards, received none the emails. 48 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 1: Part of that was me deciding last minute that I 49 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,079 Speaker 1: wasn't going to do that to get the natural reaction. 50 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 1: Part of me was also running in forty different places 51 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: doing three other things us out totally account of no accountability, 52 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 1: just say, you know what, I'm in charge, and I 53 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: made the decision dependability, availability, accountability, reliability, reliability. But that's 54 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 1: more dependability. He went with key and then he well 55 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: he forgot about it. He forgot about availability. It's really 56 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:18,959 Speaker 1: three I'm accountable. Yeah, OK, crickets alright, I said, yeah, yeah, 57 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: not not. It wasn't a positive. It wasn't a positive. 58 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: I think, Gribbles like, let's go with that being five 59 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: o'clock deadline. Most Outstanding Rookie of Camp. Gribbs, Uh, my 60 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: vote for the Maurice Bassett Award was Greedy Williams. So 61 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: I'm sticking with Greedy Williams. He did not win the 62 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: Maurice Basst Award that went to Mack Wilson, but I 63 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: think the effort from basically start to finish to be 64 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: mostly a first team cornerback and then filling in now 65 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: is a second team corner It's commendable, especially on a 66 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: roster like this. I get that there were big plays 67 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,119 Speaker 1: made elsewhere. He had an interception against Washington. I think 68 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: he's been really good, as good as advertise. I go 69 00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: with Mack Wilson because of all the interceptions made, the 70 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: has made, and also the gradual development they went, you know, 71 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: kind of from here and then shut up as we 72 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: got through camp. Leveled off a little bit in the 73 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 1: last week or so, but that's okay. I think he 74 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: stands to make an impact for years to come. I'm 75 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: gonna go with mack Wilson as well, and I think 76 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 1: Reedy has been great. To your point is second round pick. 77 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: A lot of people thought of first round talent. Now 78 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: Mac some would argue probably a second round talent, their 79 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: first late first goes in the fifth round. So when 80 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:24,280 Speaker 1: you have a guy go on the fifth round who 81 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: comes out and makes an immediate impact, the way that 82 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: he did the two pick six is in the preseason opener. 83 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,799 Speaker 1: He had a stretch in camp where in the five 84 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 1: times that he put on a Brown's uniform, he had 85 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,039 Speaker 1: five interceptions, three of them were pick sixes. That's pretty ridiculous. 86 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 1: I don't know if we'll ever seen anything like that 87 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: again in training camp, let alone from a rookie so 88 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: Mack Wilson fluid athlete. They say, we gotta some research though. 89 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: When will be the last time the Browns opened a 90 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: season with none of their draft picks in the starting lineup? 91 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 1: Or will they? I don't know, it doesn't look like that. 92 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: It might be a kicker. Oh yeah, I'm talking about 93 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 1: the eleven offensive time a long time ago, probably before 94 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: the team left. Yeah yeah, probably definitely. Uh. My vote 95 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: goes to Takie Talkie simply for the energy and the 96 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: buzz he created his first few days that really got 97 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: this team on edge right from the get go. Instigator. 98 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: I love Takie Taki, but you're ignoring one of the 99 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: main abilities. Availability hasn't been around for a couple and 100 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: I get that, and I understand saying as a human 101 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: he came in, he became an instigator, brought the energy 102 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 1: level up. You're instigating right now my vote. Yeah, I'm 103 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: still thinking about Gribbs point and my reaction. Now, perhaps 104 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: it's two thou the Bowbell draft. Oh yeah, that might 105 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: have been because we didn't have anything the first year. 106 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 1: All right. The Newcomer Award, this is not for the rookie. 107 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: This is for the newcomer on the football team. Shook, 108 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: what do you got buddy? This? You know, this is 109 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,160 Speaker 1: a tough one. I think you right now you might 110 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: give it to Eric Kush. I mean, this is a 111 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 1: guy who was signing the offseason as a name that 112 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: not a lot of people knew, right, I'm just I'm 113 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 1: just kidding. The Newcomer Award is definitely Sheldon Richardson. He's 114 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: been a force upfront on the defensive line this entire camp. 115 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: He's made a significant impact from day one, continues to 116 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 1: do so. We saw what he did on Friday night 117 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 1: in Tampa. And when you have all four of those 118 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,279 Speaker 1: guys in the line, Olivia Vernon also in the running 119 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: for this title. Uh, it's really hard to stop. And 120 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: I think Sheldon is a major reason why a girl, 121 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: you know, Odell Beckham Jr. Is probably the answer that 122 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: we all want to give. But if we're going on 123 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 1: the training camp rules and he hasn't really participated as much, 124 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: he certainly had some memorable moments, making a dB fall 125 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,239 Speaker 1: down in a simple hitch route that drew from the crowd, 126 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: his one handed catches, he did a lot, so I 127 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: think that he certainly could get it. Sheldon Richardson has 128 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: been amazing, but I'll go since he took Sheldon, I'll 129 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:54,919 Speaker 1: go with his running budd Olivia Vernon, and we just 130 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: saw what an animal he is. All the guys talk 131 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: about his physically, how strong he is. I don't know 132 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: what you're gonna do. If you have five guys blocking 133 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 1: our four, that means three you're getting one on ones. 134 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 1: You keep a guy and there's still two guys getting 135 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: one on ones. Olivia Vernon saw on Tampa two sacks easy, easy. 136 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: I mean we could have two guys, three guys I 137 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: don't know with double digit sacks this year, but that 138 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: front four is just ridiculous. And those two additions to 139 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: Ogan Joe being Garrett, I think are huge reason why 140 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: I'm going with Richardson on this one, because I think 141 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: we went into this camp thinking you would be better 142 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,559 Speaker 1: defensive tackle. But it is like leaps and bounds better 143 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: at that position. That one player has changed everything. I 144 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: think the fact that he's starting has made the guys 145 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: behind him better. I think Deverell, Lawrence Daniel a quality, 146 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: even Travon Colie, they're playing better. All of a sudden, 147 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: you went from d tackle being an area of some 148 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: significant concern where you're looking at all these free agents, 149 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: Gerald McCoy, Mike Daniels, and now all of a sudden, 150 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 1: it's it's an area of strength, and it shows when 151 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: you're generating pass rush up the middle how much of 152 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: a difference it can make. I mean, Vernon has been 153 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: really good, but I think you could get by if 154 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: you slid Chris Smith over. There is a full time end, 155 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: but there's really no replacing what Richardson's brought to the team. 156 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: It's funny you mentioned those three defensive tackles and and 157 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: each of those names. I think I'd be confident with 158 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: him and there I would be confident with him, and 159 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: there him him as well. I mean that's where we 160 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: started way over here, and we're way over here now 161 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: at the position, which is great and in a big 162 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: part of his as he said, it's because of Shelton. Absolutely. 163 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: One thing that I observed with I thought was pretty 164 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: cool in the sidelines down in Tampa's in the fourth quarter. 165 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: You know, sometimes you think of veteran a pro bowler 166 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: is just gonna check out and they stay in there 167 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: and they eat their sunflower seeds and hang out. He 168 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: was all over those guys on the d line and 169 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: kind of cheering them on, but also telling them what 170 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: they were doing was not acceptable and make a play. 171 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: But I thought that just see that kind of engagement, 172 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 1: in that kind of leadership from him, I thought was 173 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: very cool as well. All right, the girl will start 174 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 1: with you on this one. Uh, did you have one 175 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 1: who is yours? Yeah, I just want to talk to you, 176 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: talking in there to cause a stir. I'll interject as 177 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: we go. Yeah, they can choose your battles exactly. Uh. 178 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 1: Most improved player from last year to this year on 179 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 1: this football team through camp. See, these are the ones 180 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: that you want to have, Like, you want to have 181 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,359 Speaker 1: some thoughts about You want to be able to contemplate 182 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: it happen and that is not happening here. Most improved player, 183 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 1: So it has to be somebody that was here a 184 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: year ago. I'll go with one. I go it hopping. 185 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,839 Speaker 1: I'm thinking I think that I don't know if this 186 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: necessarily qualifies. Maybe it's more of a two year stretch. 187 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 1: And he was very good last year before he got hurt. Uh, 188 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,079 Speaker 1: But he's really answered the bell in this camp. That's 189 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 1: Terrence Mitchell, you know. He he really got challenged early 190 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,199 Speaker 1: in camp when Greedy was inserted into the starting lineup, 191 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: and he responded. Has been all over the field and 192 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:39,199 Speaker 1: has been consistently effective at the opposite corner position opposite 193 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: Denzel Award for this entire camp. No matter who he's 194 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: played against, he's brought physicality which you didn't necessarily expect 195 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: from him, and he's he's talked plenty of trash, especially 196 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 1: when they were going up against the Colts. He set 197 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: the tone for them defensively, and he's matched it with 198 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: his play on the field and every opportunity presented to him. 199 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 1: And I'm really confident in him going into this season. 200 00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: He's a stot. I actual thought it was pretty good 201 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: last year, but you're right, he even seems better in 202 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: the competition from Greedy. Williams has brought the best song, 203 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 1: as he told us the cream's gonna rise to the top, 204 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: and like a fine wine, he gets better with age, 205 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: and so far it certainly looks true. I got one now, 206 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: Jermaine Whitehead. He was on this roster late last year 207 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: from where he was then and you weren't even thinking 208 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: about him being a guy you were talking about in 209 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 1: your starting lineup too. Now he's that big nickel in 210 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 1: the Steve Wilkes defense, which is going to feature that position. 211 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: He's made plays, he's looked good miss a little bit 212 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: of time recently. But I think Jermaine Whitehead in terms 213 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: of a guy that we weren't expecting much from to 214 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 1: now being a starter, and I think a big part 215 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 1: of this defense and what it can do. I'm gonna 216 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: have to give him a little acknowledgment as well. I'm 217 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: gonna stole my answer. I mean, he he was claimed 218 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: midway through the season and didn't even really play any 219 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: defense at all. I mean, he's just now it's just 220 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: a regularly even when you go to safeties, I'm seeing 221 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 1: him out there a lot. And so that's that's that's 222 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,319 Speaker 1: come a long way, and it's just a really good 223 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 1: roster find that that Dorsey made last year. I want 224 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 1: to add a bonus in Devereaux. Lawrence has played really 225 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,560 Speaker 1: well this camp, and considering he's played one career game, 226 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: he's he's made leaps and bounds so far, so hopefully 227 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 1: he continues that. I would say Dontrell Hilliard as well. Yeah, 228 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:08,839 Speaker 1: it's nothing you can pay it. I was gonna say 229 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: if I was thinking superstar level Nick Chubb, just the 230 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: difference in his comfort in the passing game, his route, 231 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: running his hands. He just looks like he's gonna have 232 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 1: a monster And if we're going from last camp to 233 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: this camp, I'll throw in Greg Robinson. Yeah, really couldn't 234 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,079 Speaker 1: even really compete for the left tackle job. Now he 235 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 1: is your guy. Yeah, now we'll have a little fun. 236 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: Most entertaining coach not named Freddie Kitchens to watch and 237 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 1: or listen to on the sidelines. Uh, anybody want to start? Sure? 238 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 1: I mean I think Ryan Linley would get Probably is 239 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: the right answer, because he is. They have so much fun. 240 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: He and Baker and he saw a little bit that 241 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: and building the Browns. But Mike Preefer put on a 242 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 1: show in Indianapolis that I don't think the camera's caught 243 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: or the Mike's cotton is probably for the best where 244 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: he was pleased, and it was one of those situations 245 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: where I saw it once in practice. She he dropped 246 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: a punt and out of nowhere, he just turned around 247 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: and basically let him know under no, in certain terms 248 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 1: that if you can't catch the ball, you cannot play 249 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 1: for us. And it was said with a little bit 250 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,559 Speaker 1: more gusto than what I said. But on this sideline, 251 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 1: oh boy, he was lit. He was not having it. 252 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 1: He looked like he was cutting like Terry Funk cutting 253 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: a wrestling pro for a barbed wire match, and he 254 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: was ready for blood. That's a that's a great Can 255 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 1: I go with Freddy Kitchens name Freddie Kitchens, Well, that's 256 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 1: gonna be a tough one. Then. James Camping is enjoyable 257 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 1: to watch when they do their one on ones and 258 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 1: he really gets in someone or getting someone from missing 259 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: a block. He has this voice that we had him 260 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:45,959 Speaker 1: on so you know you guys have heard as well. 261 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: He's got this voice where if you talked to him 262 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: face to face, you would you would have a hard 263 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 1: time imagining him getting really riled up and screaming. And 264 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 1: there was a good clip of it on Building the 265 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: Browns two when they're an indie where he just like, 266 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 1: let somebody have it in the middle of the game 267 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: after I touchdown and Linley you know it out listen 268 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 1: to camp here right now. Is this is is great? He's 269 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 1: liked that in practice a lot. Uh And it's enjoyable 270 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 1: to sit back and kind of hear him get after 271 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:08,679 Speaker 1: guys and they need to be better than they are. 272 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: Got two picks of this on One is Joe wit 273 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: at the back end of the defensive backfield. He's making 274 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: corrections and talking after every single play. And one of 275 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 1: my favorite moments, and this was not one of Joe 276 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,719 Speaker 1: Witt's favorite moments, but when uh, I think there was 277 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: a play that came by his area and the guy 278 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 1: just ran right by him and he just kind of 279 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: drops his head like just in such frustration, Like it 280 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 1: was just the body language just showed how invested he 281 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: wasn't to it. My close second is is Jeff Blasco, 282 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: the assistant of coach. He is like the muscle in 283 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: that group, like he every play he's fine, he found 284 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 1: someone that did something wrong and it's you. You hear 285 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,199 Speaker 1: him as much as you hear Freddy on the field. 286 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: I would go stump Mitchell fear the beard I watched 287 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: I watched the FriCAS breakout and who got in the 288 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 1: middle of that and ended up starting to shove players 289 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: back and wanted to throw Dude was ready to throw 290 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: down with guys in full gear. And Mitchell he's not 291 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: afraid to let running backs know when they've messed up. 292 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,839 Speaker 1: And you can hear him. I agree, all right. Next 293 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:17,200 Speaker 1: one is the moment of the preseason? Is there is 294 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: What's the one moment from the preseason from training camp 295 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: that stood out to you that you'll remember that you'll 296 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: take away. I mean, beside of sitting in the middle 297 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: of a cornfield and getting attacked by bugs in in 298 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 1: a garage? Yeah, uh, the obvious ones. Damon she He 299 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 1: just had his punt return, right, I mean it was 300 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 1: at the end of the game that the brown spiritch 301 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: hadn't handed. That was just a clincher. And it was 302 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: also just like Capri to his you know, fantastic story 303 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 1: and how he's gotten to this point and whether or 304 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: not he makes the team. I think his story is 305 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 1: still set. I mean, I think it's a good enough 306 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: movie or it's good enough story for Hollywood, and the 307 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 1: script is there and I think that was just the 308 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: clincher to it, and it was a great moment for me. 309 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to Indianapolis and that cornfield. I remember 310 00:14:56,440 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 1: just talking with Freddie after uh those joint practices and 311 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 1: he was so happy, and I didn't see him that 312 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 1: happy after after the second age woint practice and I said, 313 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 1: you know, whyre you so happy because we you know, 314 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: kind of whooped up on the cold, said noe, because 315 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: we became a team today. And so that moment, to 316 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: me is when I really felt that things were galvanized. 317 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: And I'll look back at that moment if this team 318 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: achieves what we wanted it to. That that hard training camp, 319 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 1: all those padded practices, those joint practices, that that was 320 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 1: the moment when they're like, all right, we're ready. Now. 321 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 1: That seems like eight years ago and I can't believe 322 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: we're still not to the regular season. But that was 323 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: the moment for me when I was like, all right, 324 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: these guys got it. I've got two close picks. One 325 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 1: is the first drive against the Redskins. Fun when Baker 326 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 1: in the offense marched down the field without even Odell 327 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: and Jarvis and you got to see a sneak peak 328 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: of what they can do. And then last week in 329 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 1: Tampa the back to back plays where Miles and Vernon 330 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: both could have sacked Jamis on the same play and 331 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: then followed up by Sheldon just blowing up the line 332 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: on the next one. I mean that that show just 333 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: you're gonna go get Granted, Tampa Bay's offensive line isn't 334 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: exactly striking fear in anyone, but that's a starting offensive 335 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: line that you just dominated in a back to back 336 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 1: place stretch. And for this team to be really, really good, 337 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: that defense has to do that. And I think that 338 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: it showed that it has that capability, but one that 339 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 1: will It was either Saturday or Sunday that first weekend 340 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: in pads. The offense hadn't looked real crisp, and then 341 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: they decided to go two minute at the end of 342 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 1: the unscripted into the practice unscripted and Baker went bang 343 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 1: bang bang uh touchdown, And I remember looking at Jim 344 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: Donovan next to me and he was like, so that's 345 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: what we're going to see this year? He said yes, 346 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 1: And it was that aha moment that came together. So 347 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: all right, offensive camp m v P J. Yeah, that's consumin. 348 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: It's not glamorous, but he came in and was consistent, 349 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: and he was available, and he was reliable. He was dependable. 350 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: I mean he was everything Freddy Kitchens one. You you 351 00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: could ask him about any player on the team. He's 352 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: probably not gonna be more are positive about anybody then 353 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 1: Nick Chubb. And it's for good reason, and I I'm 354 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 1: excited to watch him play this year. I don't think 355 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 1: Freddie went into this preseason thinking he was gonna not 356 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: play Nick Chubb in the second or third preseason game, 357 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: but Chubb earned that. He basically showed his value, like 358 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:14,960 Speaker 1: we can't put this guy on the field. He loves 359 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 1: Nick Chubb so much. He was like, I can't. I 360 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 1: don't want to think about Nick Chub because when we 361 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 1: asked him, I remember in the production meetings were like, 362 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 1: you know who's playing? He's like this guy, I haven't 363 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,239 Speaker 1: decided he goes. I don't think. I don't think I'm 364 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 1: gonna let Nick Chub out there. I just did. He's 365 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 1: played one serious and that's all you need to see him. 366 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 1: And when he gave him the one carry on that series, 367 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: We're all like, oh God, careful, Nick Chub draw defensive 368 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 1: cap m v P. I mean, Myles Garrett's been the 369 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 1: most dominant player on the field every time he's been 370 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:41,919 Speaker 1: on the field, so I would say him. But if 371 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: I were to go, you know, not Miles not obviously. 372 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: I think Money Mitch has had the best camp anybody, 373 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 1: which Nick pointed out earlier. Yeah, you know, I want 374 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 1: to I want to agree with that, and I've spent 375 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: a lot of the camp on the defensive side of 376 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 1: the ball and just watching the front four. Um. You know, 377 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 1: I want to give a lot of credits larryogn Jovi 378 00:17:58,320 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: for the way he's fitting with these new guys in 379 00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: the offensive line, because he's the one guy that doesn't 380 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: get talked about in this group. And Miles said it 381 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 1: months ago that he expects Larry to join him with 382 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl this year, and quite frankly, I think 383 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: he's got the ability to do it, and especially alongside 384 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:13,679 Speaker 1: these guys. I think he's making the most of his 385 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,679 Speaker 1: of his situation here and should have a good season. 386 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 1: It's it's Miles. He's been the m v P on 387 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: this defensive the last two year's He's the best, He's 388 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 1: one of the best defensive players in the league. And 389 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,639 Speaker 1: he he didn't have to practice every day to show that, 390 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 1: but when he turned it on and he really couldn't 391 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: stop him. We got the guys through the preseason bubble 392 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:34,160 Speaker 1: wrapped not necessary. We got him through. Everybody's upright.
