I 10 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 3: remember the year was twenty twenty one. 11 00:00:53,960 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 4: Week four, we traveled to Minnesota, Yeah, to take on 12 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 4: the Vikings and School yep. And I had not been 13 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 4: to that stadium. I know you had been to that stadium. 14 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 4: I was absolutely blown away. I thought it was basically 15 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 4: the greatest sports venue that I'd ever been in, And 16 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 4: to this day, I believe that to be true. 17 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 2: I would say I feel the same. I've never been 18 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:25,119 Speaker 2: in anything better than that one. 19 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 4: I believe that in twenty twenty nine, the Cleveland Browns 20 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 4: will be playing in the greatest stadium on planet Earth 21 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 4: for a period of time, obviously, and then a new 22 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 4: one will be built somewhere. And that's just kind of 23 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 4: the way that it goes, but I do think that 24 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 4: that will be of that ilk, same architect. 25 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 5: But going back to that, so we're there. 26 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 4: In twenty twenty one, Browns beat the Vikings Kevin Stefanski's 27 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 4: return to Minnesota, not without controversy on the team for 28 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 4: those who were really remembering how things unfolded in the 29 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 4: year twenty twenty one. And then the very next week 30 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 4: we went to La played at Sofi Stadium against the 31 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 4: Charters in what was one of the all time great 32 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 4: Madden games. 33 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 5: The Browns. Obviously we did not win that game. Yeah 34 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 5: we should have. 35 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 4: There were some terrible calls that were made on that one, 36 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 4: but that was one of the Browns are like one 37 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 4: of the first teams with four hundred and fifty yards 38 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,399 Speaker 4: of offense, thirty five points or more, blah blah blah, 39 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 4: no turnovers, and did not win. 40 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 5: But that's neither here nor there. Prior to that game. 41 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 4: And again this is twenty twenty one, so not even 42 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 4: four years ago. Three and a half years ago, I 43 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 4: was on the sidelines and talking with. 44 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 5: Large luminaries, and. 45 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 4: I was effusive in my praise of what I had 46 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 4: experienced in Minnesota, and I can tell you at that 47 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 4: point this was not a possibility. 48 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 2: Yep. 49 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 4: I was rebuked, I used in texting one of the 50 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 4: luminaries responsible for getting this thing done. And it is 51 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 4: amazing how times have changed and how thought processes have 52 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 4: evolved to the point where it was I want to say, 53 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 4: what was it about a year ago, six, six to 54 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 4: twelve months ago, somewhere in that window, right, yeah, that 55 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 4: it was put in mote like this is it was 56 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 4: at the beginning of the season. 57 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 2: Basically, yeah, this is where we're headed, This is. 58 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 5: Where we're headed. Yeah, so yeah, maybe nine months. 59 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 2: Ago, Yeah, something like that. There's been so many Yeah, 60 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 2: you're right, continue somewhere in there. 61 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 4: That this was this was a possibility, and I got 62 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 4: I did get to interview the architect at that time. 63 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 4: It was just I was so happy, you were so happy. 64 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 4: We've been proponents of this forever. Yeah, forever, and probably 65 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 4: it just should have been nineteen ninety nine, but it 66 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 4: was so rush. But that's what should have been built 67 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 4: on the lakefront of nineteen ninety nine, had it been 68 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 4: absolutely able to be done and all of that. So 69 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 4: I just think that it's incredible how things have evolved. 70 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 4: It's awesome I woke up. I tried to be honest 71 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 4: with you again, I have a newborn. I tried to 72 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 4: stay up for the moment that the wine signed it. 73 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 4: And he waited until it seemed it was well after 74 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 4: eleven that he actually put pen to paper. He had 75 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 4: till midnight because I wanted to see it. This is 76 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 4: such an awesome thing. And I've talked to so many people, 77 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 4: and I'm sure you have to people who come up 78 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 4: to you, whether you know them or not, and they 79 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 4: come up to you and they share their opinions with 80 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 4: you rather quickly on what they think about this thing. 81 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 4: This is going to be incredible. It's going to be 82 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 4: I think, transformative for this region. I think it is 83 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 4: going to be it's going to be world class. We 84 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 4: have world class fans, it's gonna be a world class facility. 85 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 4: And now we need to get a world class team 86 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,119 Speaker 4: in place for twenty twenty nine, and quite frankly, sooner 87 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 4: than that, immediately. But this is so exciting, dude, this 88 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 4: is this is going to be like, think about this, 89 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 4: and I don't know if I don't think we talk 90 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 4: because we obviously didn't talk about yes day. But when 91 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 4: you fly into Dallas, yep. Your flight path typically takes 92 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,359 Speaker 4: you over at and T Stadium. Yes, And it's one 93 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 4: of those things you look out of the plane and 94 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 4: I don't know if you do this. I'm always looking 95 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 4: for stadiums in all the courses. It's a two days 96 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 4: I look for yeah, yeah, the way over and then 97 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 4: in LA you fly in right on Sofi, like literally 98 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 4: right by Sofi. And now that's what we're gonna have here. 99 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 4: There is a thing in Cleveland or is you all 100 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 4: know this? So no, I don't want anybody get upset. 101 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 4: Sometimes you descend through the clouds and you're. 102 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 5: Like, oh man, yeah, bleak, bleak. 103 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 4: Now you're gonna at least have a beacon of something 104 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 4: that is very cool that you're gonna fly in and 105 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 4: be like, all right, that's our stadium that's gonna host 106 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:52,799 Speaker 4: big things. 107 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 5: It is. This is me talking. 108 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 4: These are not guarantees, certainly, but I mean, now you're 109 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 4: in the line for Big ten championships. Now you're in 110 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 4: the line for final fours or regional finals. Now you're 111 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 4: in line for super Bowls, WrestleMania's, any big stadium show, 112 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 4: concert event, anything likely is gonna come through Cleveland. And 113 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 4: that is gonna bring so much money to this area, 114 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 4: which is gonna be great. It's gonna be a point 115 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,799 Speaker 4: of pride. I can tell you our stadium right now 116 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,279 Speaker 4: as it is, is not necessarily a point of pride 117 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 4: in the National Football League. In fact, I've talked to 118 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 4: a lot of people who have played here who have 119 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 4: then gone on play other places. And while our stadium 120 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 4: has like a cool environment because the Dog Pound is 121 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 4: so awesome and by the way's seen the renderings, Zog 122 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 4: Pound's gonna be one continuous story section from bottom to 123 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 4: the top. 124 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 2: Honestly, if you look at if you've just as a 125 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 2: quick to jump in there, if you look at what 126 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 2: they did down at the Cruz Stadium, at lower dot 127 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 2: Com Stadium, how they have the Nordka in one wall. Ye, 128 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 2: also very similar to what Barusha Dortmund has where you 129 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 2: have the one wall of supporters. That's what you're gonna get, 130 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 2: and that's undefeated. 131 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 4: It's gonna be awesome, and it's gonna be right over 132 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 4: the visitors. It's gonna be right over the visitors tunnel. 133 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 4: It's gonna be awesome. This is just such an exciting thing. 134 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,359 Speaker 4: And you know, I'm not saying it's gonna happen. But 135 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 4: I could envision at some point and you could tell 136 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 4: me I'm wrong, You would certainly know better. But that 137 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 4: like every year there'll be a big time Buckeye game 138 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 4: played in that stadium. There's just gonna be so many 139 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 4: things that are even out of the box of what 140 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 4: we're thinking about right now, that are gonna be able 141 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 4: to take place in at say, not to mention, it's 142 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 4: gonna be an unbelievable football environment. You are going to 143 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 4: be able to go there no matter the weather and 144 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 4: sit comfortably watch a game. The seats are closer to 145 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 4: the field than they are at our current stadium. It's 146 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 4: just gonna be I've wanted this, This is a dream 147 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 4: of mine for a long long time. 148 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 5: And a lot of. 149 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 4: People here probably don't travel to a lot of games. 150 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 4: You haven't gone and taken in a game, and a 151 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 4: lot of you did last year in Vegas, and everybody 152 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 4: you talked with, Dude, that stadium is awesome. Yeah, yeah, 153 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 4: it is Minnesota, same thing, La, same thing. 154 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 2: When they first got that thing. That thing's gorgeous. 155 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 4: Yes, even Ford Field has a certain charm to it 156 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 4: with the Braain On the one side, it's just nice 157 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 4: to be able to play football there when, by the way, 158 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 4: when you have a good quarterback, which we are certainly 159 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 4: hoped that is on our roster already, and if not, 160 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 4: we are going to never. Our quest will go on 161 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 4: and on to get it. That's a big advantage playing 162 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 4: in a perfect environment. It's a big advantage. And so 163 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 4: you got I love it. I think it's cool that 164 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 4: we're gonna be the only domaur division as well. I 165 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 4: think is pretty neat at least for now. 166 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 5: It's just exciting. Man, I'm so pumped about it is. 167 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 4: This is such a long time coming, and I really 168 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 4: think it is. It has the potential to be a 169 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 4: change in terms of how the Browns are perceived, how 170 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 4: the Browns perform, how the Browns and this area are perceived, 171 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 4: in terms of just events of major magnitudes. 172 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 2: You hit on something there. I talked about this a 173 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 2: little bit this morning. When this thing is done, it'll 174 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 2: be the best venue in the world. Think about that. 175 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, in Cleveland. 176 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 2: Here we will have it right right now. Maybe it's Minnesota, 177 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,559 Speaker 2: maybe it's real Madrid. Who just read it. There's that 178 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:10,599 Speaker 2: type of but this is four more years of technology. 179 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 2: So there, I'm glad you put the qualifier on it 180 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 2: for a period of time, because someone will do something 181 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 2: bigger and better, because it's the way this works. But 182 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 2: for a period of time, this will be the best 183 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 2: exactly for a short period of time, or it could 184 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 2: be a decent period of time, you will have the 185 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 2: best stadium on the planet. Yep. Okay, So that that 186 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 2: is just such an in discreadable thing. Yeah, in this region. 187 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 2: So that's just that's incredible that that part of it. 188 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 2: There are some who will say and you and I 189 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 2: have talked about this. You and I have been proponents 190 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 2: of this going back to like eighteen, like I mean 191 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 2: maybe even before that for you. 192 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 5: But Bence, I sat behind this microphone. 193 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, we've just been like, man, I've been to a 194 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 2: lot of those games in late November December or when 195 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 2: we had when there were season tickets in the family. 196 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 2: It would be like, hey, does anybody want these? No, No, 197 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 2: I don't want them. I'm not on the sideline you were, Yeah, 198 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 2: and they're just there. There is a romance to the 199 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 2: cold that is not backed up in reality of actually 200 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 2: going to the games. And I think it's a lot 201 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 2: of people on television. Yes, there's a badge of honor 202 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 2: of saying yes, I was in the game. I was 203 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 2: at the Buffalo game. I was at that game with 204 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 2: my father in law and as two buddies, we were 205 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 2: at that game and it was awful. Now you won, 206 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 2: and so you remember it, but the experience of it 207 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,320 Speaker 2: was brutal to be in that it was awful. So 208 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 2: I've wanted this for a long time. Selfishly, I want 209 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 2: this for other reasons beyond the and of course it's 210 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 2: going to do all of those things, all the economic impact, 211 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 2: all of it. All of the things that you just 212 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 2: mentioned as possibilities are things my kids love. 213 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 5: Yes. 214 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:49,959 Speaker 2: WrestleMania yep. NCAA Final fours yep, Big time concerts yep, 215 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 2: Big ten championship football games yep. Big time college football 216 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 2: games in the playoff yep, National championship games, yes, super Bowls. Yes, 217 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 2: this opens the door for all of that. I have 218 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 2: watched because of what I do in the morning. I 219 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 2: have watched college money go to Indiana for decades. Yep. 220 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 2: I've watched that money go to Indiana and Indianapolis. I've 221 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 2: seen it go to Detroit or Chicago. Enough enough you 222 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 2: can keep that money in state. You know what you 223 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 2: mentioned the Ohio State regular season game. It won't happen regularly, 224 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 2: but what you could see is what just happened last 225 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 2: year between Alabama and Wisconsin where they played at Lambeau. 226 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 2: So you could see a scenario where Ohio State plays 227 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 2: a neutral field regional game. Let's say against Texas. You 228 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 2: play one of them in this stadium, you played another 229 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 2: one in Jerry World Like. Both coaches would like that, 230 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 2: to play in NFL stadiums and to be in regions 231 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 2: with hotbeds of recruiting, so all of those things become 232 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:49,839 Speaker 2: possibilities that otherwise were not. If Ohio State ever has 233 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 2: to renovate the Horseshoe, like a real renovation, they could 234 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 2: play in this stadium while that renovation takes place, and 235 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 2: they are going to need to do that in the 236 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 2: near future. That none of us we're not saying any 237 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 2: of this stuff is a certainty. Nothing is a certainty. 238 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 2: But now it's possible. 239 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,559 Speaker 4: But you also can have that game played on a Saturday, 240 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 4: no problem, and play your game on a Sunday. 241 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,559 Speaker 5: It's very field. 242 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 2: It's not effect anything. So so all of the things 243 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 2: that we're talking about are possible. Now we're not possible 244 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 2: intel now and so aside from actually just you and 245 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 2: most of you listening to us are Cleveland Browns fans, right, 246 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 2: this is Cleveland Browns Daily. It's the team you love 247 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 2: the most. 248 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 6: Right. 249 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, Well guess what you're experiencing gonna be awesome. Yeah, 250 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,439 Speaker 2: you're experiencing gonna be awesome at this stadium. It's gonna 251 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,079 Speaker 2: be outstanding. You are not going to have to deal 252 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 2: with a stadium that has two real ways in and out. Yep, 253 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 2: you have multiple ways in and out. There's gonna be 254 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 2: all sorts of parking. You want to talk about an 255 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,839 Speaker 2: entire region, immuni lot, you can do that, like all 256 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 2: of those things. It's going to enrich all of those things, 257 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 2: all of them. And I couldn't be more excited about this. 258 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 2: When I went to that wedding at the Minnesota Stadium, 259 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 2: and up until that point, the two coolest things that 260 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 2: I've ever seen were Jerry World in Indy and I 261 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,719 Speaker 2: think Indy. I think they really crushed India, especially when 262 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 2: you consider when it was built, the idea that it 263 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 2: still holds up. It is still spectaclic, it's still awesome 264 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 2: to this day. And Jerry World's a stunning accomplishment. And 265 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 2: the idea that they designed it so you never had 266 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 2: to wait in line for a beer is a pretty 267 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 2: or a bathroom is pretty cool. That they designed enough 268 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 2: of them to make sure that you didn't. But when 269 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 2: I went to Minnesota, that was just on another level. 270 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 2: It was the marriage of indoor and outdoor, that terranium 271 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 2: kind of feel, the greenhouse feel, with the natural light, 272 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 2: all of the things that Minneapolis did that was a 273 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,319 Speaker 2: game changer. And I remember coming back to that wedding 274 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,440 Speaker 2: and telling you, like, dude, that play when you go play, 275 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 2: see us play there, you're gonna be You can't even 276 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 2: wrap your head around how cool that place is. So cool, 277 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 2: it's so great, And that's what's this? Is this there? 278 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,319 Speaker 2: How many years have they been playing in that place? 279 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 5: Now? 280 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 2: Five six, maybe more than that, maybe even more than that. 281 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,199 Speaker 5: I think it's a prime. It will be it's it's 282 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 5: gonna be surprising. It might be more like I think 283 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 5: it's over. I think it might be a decade. 284 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 2: Well, I know that they I want to say in 285 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 2: fourteen they were playing it on campus at Minnesota, but 286 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 2: I could be right. 287 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 4: They were that year. You're right, they were that year. 288 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 4: So they would be right around. 289 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 2: There somewhere in there. So maybe it's ten years old now. 290 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 2: So just think what technology this one's going to. 291 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 5: Have opened in twenty sixteen, so this will be its 292 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 5: ten seasons. 293 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is ten seasons. Yeah, and that place is sick, 294 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 2: still sick, and so this is going to be ten 295 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 2: years more recent technology than that if you get started 296 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 2: on tomorrow. So yeah, I just you, and I mean 297 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 2: anyone who's listening regularly knows that you and I have 298 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 2: wanted this for a very long time, long before to 299 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 2: your point that it was ever even thought possible. You know, 300 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 2: we kind of resigned to ourselves that we'd be in 301 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 2: kind of a buffalo situation where you have something where 302 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 2: the wind kind of goes around and yeah, all of 303 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 2: this and you're trying to re engineer the win. But 304 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 2: to me, just take that out of it. And the 305 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 2: other thing that you have to remember, and this is 306 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 2: the other part in terms of the roster to things. 307 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 2: Number One, this ownership has proven time and time again 308 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 2: that they will spend what it takes to win. Yep. 309 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 2: So everything that they're doing in Philly can be done here. Okay. 310 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 2: The other thing, don't think for a second that this 311 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 2: isn't more attractive for players, don't think for a second. 312 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 2: Of course, it is climate control. Come on, kickers, quarterbacks. 313 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 2: Everybody wants to play in one temperature, everybody, and now 314 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 2: you're gonna you're gonna yes. So for me a player 315 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 2: requisition standpoint, it's it's massive too. 316 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 4: And here's the thing. Just take a look at the fact. 317 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 4: Look at what our home record had been.

All will be now coming 542 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,479 Speaker 4: to Cleveland. And he's going to talk about the home 543 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 4: field advantage that our fans create and what that has 544 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 4: to do with the new Huntington Bankfield. 545 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 8: We have not done the job on the field we should. 546 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:51,160 Speaker 8: We bear full responsibility. And if anybody deserves a great 547 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 8: stadium and a great team, it's the Cleveland Browns fans. 548 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:55,919 Speaker 8: You deal with them every day. We have the world's 549 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 8: greatest fans. We are going to deliver a world class stadium. 550 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 8: I could argue this bet stadium in the country, one 551 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 8: of the best in the world. We need to develop 552 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 8: the same kind of team. I do think a dome 553 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 8: stadium and you're with us when we go on the 554 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 8: road does give you an advantage with the home field 555 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 8: because that noise is just packed in. They're tighter, and 556 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 8: we hope this will become not only a great experience 557 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 8: for our fans, but a terrible experience for the visiting 558 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 8: team because it is a quote hard place to play. 559 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,199 Speaker 2: What he just said on there is actually something that 560 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,679 Speaker 2: you and I have talked about before, and it's not 561 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 2: because of lack of effort from the fan perspective. It's 562 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,160 Speaker 2: just because of the way the wind blows in our stadium, 563 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 2: current stadium situation, the noise gets blown out totally. It 564 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 2: does not keep it in, and it's not as loud 565 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 2: as it should be based on the effort that the 566 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 2: fans are producing. 567 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 5: It's not Oh and the dome and the dome dome 568 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 5: ounce right back down. 569 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 2: Or there are some outdoor like Seattle where they designed 570 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:50,880 Speaker 2: it and the new Buffalo want will be built that way. 571 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 2: Where they designed it that way to keep the noise in. 572 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 2: Ours was not. It was built hastily, and it's built 573 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 2: in a way that a lot of the noise escapes. Yeah, 574 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 2: and that's that's part of it all. 575 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 4: Right. Let's hear now from d Haslm the fact that 576 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,640 Speaker 4: with this stadium, every details focused on a stellar fan experience. 577 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 9: Everything we've done in the planning process for the New 578 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:15,640 Speaker 9: Dome Stadium is fan first. You know, what what can 579 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 9: we do to create the best experience for the fan. 580 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 9: That's talking about the unique food service. You know, we're 581 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 9: to have some really great experiences, just everything about the 582 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 9: concourse and we've thought about you know what, what's the 583 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 9: experience going to be like for the fan, what the 584 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 9: plaza looks like. I mean, it's kind of walking in 585 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 9: the fans shoes to create the best experience for them 586 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,679 Speaker 9: because we know now it's been a pretty rough experience 587 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 9: for them and we want to make sure that every 588 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,640 Speaker 9: detail is fan first. 589 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 4: And that's one of the cool things about this is 590 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 4: and I know our team people that have been involved 591 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 4: in this, whether it be you know, all the way 592 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 4: up to the Haslms, to Dave Jenkins, to Monica Lindsay 593 00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:00,880 Speaker 4: and Phil and Ted and Brent Rossi and everybody who 594 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 4: has been a part of traveling to other new stadiums 595 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 4: h the Clippers Stadium, for example, Yeah, to international stadiums 596 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 4: to domes here Minnesota and SOFI and Vegas and all that, 597 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 4: walking around talking with the people that were responsible for 598 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 4: making those pulling what they thought were the best things 599 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 4: from all of these other places to be able to 600 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,679 Speaker 4: put them into ours.

I mean, this is a 627 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 9: unique place. We have fallen in love with it. We're 628 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 9: adopted I guess we're somewhat adopted here, but love this area, 629 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 9: love this region. So it's not about our legacy. Is 630 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 9: actually about the legacy of the clan. 631 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 5: Which is awesome. 632 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 4: And they really see this not as and I know 633 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 4: the question that was asked there and I know what 634 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 4: I asked and how it got where it was, But 635 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 4: they don't see this as like this is our famili's legacy, 636 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 4: that this is going to be here, which they could 637 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 4: and reasonably so like this is something that we've come 638 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 4: into this community, we love it, and this is going 639 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 4: to be our big you know, leave to it. 640 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 5: They see it as. 641 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 4: They are stewards of this organization for a time, they 642 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 4: are stewards of the Cleveland Browns, and what that means 643 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 4: for a time a period of time, and that this 644 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 4: is something that can be a lasting impact for this franchise, 645 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 4: for the Cleveland Browns, for their fans, for this region. 646 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:57,000 Speaker 5: That will we use the words transform. 647 00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 4: I really think that that's that's not hyperbole, that's bounce. 648 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 4: That it will transform the way Cleveland is viewed. And 649 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 4: people say it's in brook Park. I know that, but 650 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 4: it's it's Cleveland. Yeah, this area northeast Ohio, Cleveland will 651 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 4: be transformed.

Yeah, 658 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 4: you don't think it is going to dawn on the 659 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 4: National Football League that now we have a state of 660 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 4: the art facility as good as can be one hour 661 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 4: from the Hall of fame and that that's not going 662 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 4: to be a draw to them to put events or 663 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 4: football forward thinking events into that building. Of course it is, 664 00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:57,959 Speaker 4: of course it is. 665 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it opened. This just opens up what's possible. 666 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 2: Things that weren't previously possible in this state now are 667 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 2: so beyond just your Brown's experience, which is going to 668 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 2: be ten out of ten. Beyond all of that. What 669 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 2: it means for the region, I mean you understand your 670 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 2: transformative round and think that's what I mean, things you 671 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 2: otherwise could not have. There was no if this didn't 672 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 2: get done, there was no path to ever see a 673 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 2: Final Four here. There's no path to ever see a 674 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 2: national championship football game here, a Super Bowl. None of 675 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:27,560 Speaker 2: those things were. 676 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 5: College player, none of that. 677 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 2: None of that. Now it all is, yes, So yeah, 678 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 2: it's it's an awesome day. It really is. 679 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 4: And I have to think if you're a big you 680 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 4: know you're looking. I think that you're looking to think 681 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 4: about how in Georgia, for example, they have the beautiful Dome, 682 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 4: and so they have the Chick fil A Peach Bowl. 683 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 4: I don't know if it is still a Chick fil 684 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 4: A Peach Bowl, but for a time it was the 685 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 4: Chick fil A Peach Bowl. You're going to have big 686 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 4: companies here and that do business in this region lining 687 00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 4: up to try to put their name on whatever bowl 688 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 4: there's going to be a bowl game played here. 689 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 2: They don't well, what they will get done. What they 690 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 2: can get to the front of the line of right 691 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 2: away is college football National Championship game yep, because they're 692 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 2: they're going to play one in Indy, so they can 693 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 2: play one here and so that you get to the 694 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 2: front of that line real quickly. 695 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 5: I think the Big Ten Championship is going to be here. 696 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 2: They can bet on it for sure, because right now 697 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 2: it's in Indy every year, and there's there's no reason 698 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 2: for it always to. 699 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 4: Be there, especially now when Ohio State is the pre 700 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 4: eminent force of the Big Ten. 701 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 2: Right and by the way, you're closer to I would 702 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 2: assume that you're closer from ann Arbor here than you 703 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 2: are in Indianapolis, right, I think, yes, yeah. 704 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 4: Wait, it's three hours three hours to Fort Wayne from here, 705 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 4: but I mean from an Arbor. 706 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 5: I mean from man. I think, is it really it's 707 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 5: similar to here, because that's where it kills. I could 708 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 5: be wrong about. 709 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 2: Them, Yeah, I don't I don't know, it's I don't 710 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 2: know that either way. The point is they've had it 711 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 2: at other places and now you can be involved in 712 00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 2: those things. So this is yeah, I mean, this is 713 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 2: a very very exciting time. I'll guarantee you this. It's 714 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 2: faster to State College from here than it is to 715 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 2: go to Indy for Penn State fans. So and it's 716 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,399 Speaker 2: it's certainly faster for East Lansing, I would assume as well. 717 00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 4: So it's it's it's over four hours to Indianapolis. 718 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,239 Speaker 2: From an armor yeah, and it's about three from here. 719 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 2: That's right. Yeah, So there you go. So it's an 720 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:21,319 Speaker 2: exciting day. It very much is. And and this is 721 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:22,879 Speaker 2: it's going to be here before we know it. It's 722 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 2: it is absolutely transformational, not just for the Cleveland Browns, 723 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 2: but for the region, for the state.

What is what is 807 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:18,799 Speaker 14: your work for loss to me going into this, what 808 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,239 Speaker 14: you wanted this line to me?

And that's gonna be Ethan Posick who's going 813 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:28,960 Speaker 12: to identify things for us. 814 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,439 Speaker 13: You were you were with the Stanford teams, I mean, 815 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 13: running the football and that physicality was sort of that 816 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 13: was their identity. Just what's the similarities between what you 817 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:42,880 Speaker 13: guys are trying to do here with what you guys did. 818 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:43,840 Speaker 11: There, they're at the stand. 819 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 12: I think it's a very similar philosophy in terms of 820 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 12: wanting to have the ability to pound the rock. Now 821 00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:51,040 Speaker 12: with that you're in the National Football League, you're also 822 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,560 Speaker 12: going to have to pass protect. But again, in everything 823 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 12: that we do, there's never gonna be a passive rep. 824 00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 12: Like pass pro is only passive until contacts made and 825 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 12: then it's straight violence for the rest of the doubt 826 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 12: and it's a barroom brawl. And so as long as 827 00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 12: we take that mindset and understand the fight that it takes, 828 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 12: whether it's run or passed, I think we're gonna be 829 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 12: just fine. But going Yeah, talking about those Stanford days, 830 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 12: those were a lot of fun. Those are a lot 831 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 12: of fun being able to pound the rock down people's throats, 832 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:16,240 Speaker 12: and that's something this offensive line really wants. 833 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 11: To be able to do for this team as well. 834 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,359 Speaker 14: What have you just seen from Dewan Jones about tech? 835 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,200 Speaker 11: Yeah, I think Dwan's done some good things. 836 00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:25,360 Speaker 12: You talk about like what you've seen this offseason just 837 00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:27,960 Speaker 12: as the osp started, you talk about the steps that 838 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,760 Speaker 12: he's taken. He's been at everything, he's attacked his rehab 839 00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 12: and he's lost some weight. So I think those are 840 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,759 Speaker 12: good starting points. I think there's so much good in 841 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 12: the package that is Dewan Jones, things that certainly you 842 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 12: can't coach, you know, from a length a size standpoint athleticism. 843 00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:44,799 Speaker 11: There's a lot of good in there. 844 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 12: But he's certainly not a finished product, as are none 845 00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:49,319 Speaker 12: of us in that offensive line. We're including myself, like 846 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 12: there's still a lot of work to be done. I 847 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,840 Speaker 12: really think it's the proverbial like we're not where we 848 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:55,360 Speaker 12: need or want to be, but thank god, we're not 849 00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 12: where we used to be. 850 00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:57,759 Speaker 11: We're making progress, but we got a long way to go. 851 00:39:57,880 --> 00:39:59,440 Speaker 2: You've got a player of county. Is there anybody from 852 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:00,840 Speaker 2: your past we'll want to remind you? 853 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:01,040 Speaker 14: Then? 854 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 11: No, he's unique. 855 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:08,239 Speaker 10: Yes, he talked about the transition from the right side 856 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:10,360 Speaker 10: and west side. Now he thinks he's still kind of 857 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 10: going through that, just you know, trying to do stuff 858 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 10: left handed. How do you how have you seen him 859 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 10: get better and how do you help him get he 860 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:17,759 Speaker 10: further better? 861 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:18,919 Speaker 11: Left side? 862 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:19,279 Speaker 6: Yeah? 863 00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:20,320 Speaker 11: I think it is reps. 864 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:23,920 Speaker 12: Reps, reps and ruthlessly repetitive fundamentals are a thing we 865 00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:25,799 Speaker 12: believe in the offensive line room, and so the mare 866 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 12: sets he can get from the left, and the more 867 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:29,600 Speaker 12: comfortable he can get, whether it's from a two point 868 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 12: stance or from a three point stance, that all has 869 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:33,680 Speaker 12: so much value and we've got to make sure we're 870 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 12: getting in those reps. I'm really encouraged by the ability 871 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:41,920 Speaker 12: that's there. And again, I think there's a philosophical philosophy 872 00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,040 Speaker 12: in this building and something Bill has always held strong to. 873 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 12: And there's not a whole lot of difference between playing 874 00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 12: right and left tackle from a skill set, And although 875 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:50,920 Speaker 12: we know the importance of the left tackle position, I'm 876 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,000 Speaker 12: not saying that. But again, when you talk about just 877 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:56,040 Speaker 12: mastering those footwork patterns and feeling comfortable with every kick 878 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,600 Speaker 12: and every step you're taking, that's really just time on 879 00:40:58,680 --> 00:40:59,959 Speaker 12: task because it is a different stance. 880 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 13: So you you believe that kind of a tackle is 881 00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:07,600 Speaker 13: a tackle right left? Isn't more is made out right 882 00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:10,320 Speaker 13: and left than maybe the reality. 883 00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:12,919 Speaker 11: I think when you're looking for tools and skill set. Yes, 884 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 11: over the. 885 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:16,840 Speaker 14: Past couple of years, injuries have kind of played the 886 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,279 Speaker 14: line for you. Where do you see the depth of 887 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 14: the team. Obviously want to stay healthy, but we're definitely 888 00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 14: playing for you. 889 00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 12: I think the depth's coming and I think the off 890 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:26,719 Speaker 12: season moves that we made and bringing Tevin in and 891 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 12: bringing Cornelius Lucas in, those are great steps to shoring 892 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 12: that up. There's also gonna be some competition in a 893 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:33,360 Speaker 12: couple of positions because of those. 894 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 11: Guys jumping in there. 895 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:37,720 Speaker 12: I think Luke Whippler, who we call coach Whippler because 896 00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:39,359 Speaker 12: of his knowledge of the system, you know, I think 897 00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:40,840 Speaker 12: he's doing a great job and I think we have 898 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 12: a ton of confidence in him. 899 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:43,719 Speaker 14: How much do you enjoy the development part? 900 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:44,239 Speaker 1: That is? 901 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,520 Speaker 11: I love it. I live for this, y'all, like like 902 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:47,879 Speaker 11: football is what I love. 903 00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:50,640 Speaker 2: Along the line, So when you want switching to the 904 00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 2: left side, I've seen a couple of times for he's. 905 00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 11: Been all on the side. Talk FLEs a little bit. 906 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:56,319 Speaker 2: You're just starting to talk about the different things. 907 00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 7: Just how much can Miles can help go on sort 908 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,279 Speaker 7: of the ropes on that side, and they just going 909 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:03,959 Speaker 7: up against that caliber flaring at this morning. 910 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 12: Yeah, I think it's the ultimate iron sharpens iron right 911 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:08,359 Speaker 12: as you talk about that, and so anything that they 912 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 12: can do and certainly post rep hey, what you see, 913 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,640 Speaker 12: what you feel and why and being able to process 914 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:15,400 Speaker 12: that as an offensive lineman knowing that we live in 915 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 12: fractional seconds, so it's got to be something that's done 916 00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:19,840 Speaker 12: pre snap, and so we can take it away the 917 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,399 Speaker 12: next time understanding like, hey, I saw your shoulders open. 918 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,120 Speaker 12: Hey I saw you off balance. Great, let's make sure 919 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 12: we fix it and just stay lower and stay square. 920 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,879 Speaker 2: Did you really tell four years I did? 921 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:30,160 Speaker 15: Man? 922 00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 12: Look, I'm the eternal optimist, and I'm praying to get 923 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 12: every moment I can with Joel Potonio, Like from that 924 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,839 Speaker 12: first dinner that we had, I just think it's it's 925 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 12: been such a blessing to be around him. I really 926 00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:43,879 Speaker 12: competed when we brought in Alan Fanica with the Jets 927 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:46,959 Speaker 12: in two thousand and eight, And when whenever Joel talks 928 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:49,239 Speaker 12: about something he sees through the face mask, I like 929 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:51,279 Speaker 12: can't wait to write it down right because there's so 930 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,120 Speaker 12: much wisdom in there. And it really was the same 931 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 12: as Fanic, Like I got books full of his vantage 932 00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:57,479 Speaker 12: point that I still used today to teach. 933 00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 10: So you're pretty relieved when he decided he was coming back. 934 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,360 Speaker 11: Yeah, I'd say it's one of my best recruiting efforts lately. 935 00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 2: All right, tell you go. New offensive line coach Mike 936 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:07,440 Speaker 2: Bloomber for the mandatory mini camp. And now let's take 937 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:11,680 Speaker 2: a look at this offensive line room. This is something 938 00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 2: that we thought there would be a little bit of 939 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 2: future planning in the draft in terms of a tackle. 940 00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 2: It didn't happen, but certainly you feel feel very good 941 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:21,320 Speaker 2: about that front group. But there are some age issues 942 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:23,840 Speaker 2: as well as this is a very veteran group in parts, 943 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:25,920 Speaker 2: and then it's really young in some of the spots 944 00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:26,720 Speaker 2: behind him. 945 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:30,879 Speaker 4: Well, not only not only that, you have a lot 946 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:35,719 Speaker 4: of guys whose contracts are up after this season, there 947 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:37,239 Speaker 4: are a lot of guys who are on the last 948 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:40,640 Speaker 4: season of their contracts with the Cleveland Browns in this 949 00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:44,800 Speaker 4: offensive line room, and so that makes it a challenging 950 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:48,399 Speaker 4: or an interesting situation to project not only what this 951 00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,160 Speaker 4: team is right now, but what is this team and 952 00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:53,840 Speaker 4: what is this offensive line going to look like for 953 00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 4: the future. Because if you look at it, you know 954 00:43:57,480 --> 00:43:59,840 Speaker 4: Joel Beatonio, we didn't weren't sure if he was going 955 00:43:59,880 --> 00:44:03,960 Speaker 4: to come back. He did. This is the last year 956 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:06,239 Speaker 4: of his contract. Twenty twenty six is a void year 957 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 4: on his contract. Then you go to Wyatt Teller. Yep, 958 00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 4: Wyatt Teller is in the last year of his contract. 959 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 4: Ethan Posk is in the last year of his contract, 960 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:22,960 Speaker 4: so that's three of your starters. Tevin Jenkins is on 961 00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 4: a one year deal, So this is a group that 962 00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:32,280 Speaker 4: does not have you look at kind of your top guys, 963 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:35,759 Speaker 4: and I'm pretty sure Cornelis Lucas Chrinis Lucas is. 964 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:36,399 Speaker 5: On a two year deal. 965 00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:40,200 Speaker 4: So of your top of your starters, Dwan Jones. Oh, 966 00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:42,480 Speaker 4: and then I didn't mention the other one. Your other 967 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:48,000 Speaker 4: starter would be Jack Conklin. Jack Conklin is in the 968 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:51,600 Speaker 4: last year of his deal, So you're talking about four 969 00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:53,839 Speaker 4: fifths of your starting offensive lines in the last year 970 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:57,360 Speaker 4: of its deal. And then one of your top backups. 971 00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:00,040 Speaker 4: So five of your top eight yep are in the 972 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:01,400 Speaker 4: last year of their contracts. 973 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:03,879 Speaker 5: So you've got a lot to do here. 974 00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:06,480 Speaker 4: And yes, you've got Dwan Jones, Yes you've got Zack Zenner, 975 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 4: You've got Luke Whippler. But and Cornelis Lucas, I guess 976 00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 4: has a second year. But there's not a whole lot 977 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 4: set for beyond. So this season, and obviously they're excited 978 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:21,680 Speaker 4: about Bloomgren. He brings kind of that real, legitimate, you know, 979 00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:27,279 Speaker 4: attitude to everything and you could tell the players like him. 980 00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 4: But this is a line that's got not so much 981 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:31,960 Speaker 4: questions for what it can do on the field. This year, 982 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:33,840 Speaker 4: we're gonna have questions about kind of what the backups 983 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:38,320 Speaker 4: look like, but what it's going to be going forward. 984 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:42,400 Speaker 5: What is this room going to be in twenty twenty six. 985 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:49,279 Speaker 2: So yeah, it's it's a big one. Yeah, it's a 986 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 2: big one. And it's yeah it is, and I yeah, 987 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:56,759 Speaker 2: So I I think the thing that you're the veterans 988 00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:59,879 Speaker 2: obviously need health. If you have to pick one guy 989 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:02,360 Speaker 2: though that it would sure be nice if he plays 990 00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:04,920 Speaker 2: healthy and completely up to as great as he can 991 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:06,919 Speaker 2: be when healthy. And God knows, I see him every day. 992 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:08,239 Speaker 5: He looks fantastic. 993 00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 2: I walk in the building, he's walking out. It's every 994 00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:12,480 Speaker 2: single day. It's been that way all off season. Is 995 00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:17,000 Speaker 2: Dewan Jones. He is essentially a lottery ticket if he 996 00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 2: plays healthy, If he stays healthy, he's a first round pick, 997 00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:23,279 Speaker 2: Pro Bowl caliber tackle. Yep. But you need him to 998 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:25,760 Speaker 2: and it's a big season for him to be able 999 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:29,080 Speaker 2: to do that. But everything else, I mean, whether it's 1000 00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:32,720 Speaker 2: Potonio or Teller or Posik or Conklin, the ages getting 1001 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 2: up there, the wear and tears getting up there in 1002 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,160 Speaker 2: a lot of those instances. So that's a big part 1003 00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 2: of it. Is there an X factor for you here? 1004 00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:41,600 Speaker 4: I mean it's got to be Dewan, right, Yeah, I 1005 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:43,440 Speaker 4: mean Dewan to me is the X factor. And then 1006 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:45,920 Speaker 4: the other kind of X factors are if there are 1007 00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:49,200 Speaker 4: opportunities for Tevin Jenkins, who could become a long term 1008 00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:51,440 Speaker 4: solution but he's on a one year deal, or Zack Ziner, 1009 00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 4: you know, and is he going to play some center 1010 00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:55,800 Speaker 4: as well as guard. We've seen him get some reps 1011 00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 4: early in the off season. You know, are they ready? 1012 00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:04,960 Speaker 4: Are they to be somewhat what we would call air apparents, 1013 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:09,120 Speaker 4: because that's really you You kind of need them to 1014 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:13,400 Speaker 4: be somewhat air apparents because the likelihood, you know, if 1015 00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:15,319 Speaker 4: Joel came back for this year, there's a good chance 1016 00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:18,799 Speaker 4: that this could be only this year, you know, could 1017 00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:20,560 Speaker 4: be a one year thing. And then on the other side, 1018 00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:27,120 Speaker 4: it could be for Zack's enter, can he step up, 1019 00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:29,560 Speaker 4: what's his what's his mode? But then I think, why Teller? 1020 00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:32,879 Speaker 4: You could see here being more longer term, but that's 1021 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:35,680 Speaker 4: not worked out yet. So there's just a lot of 1022 00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:38,759 Speaker 4: question about this line beyond this year. And that's not 1023 00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:41,160 Speaker 4: a position that the Cleveland Browns have been in for 1024 00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:42,000 Speaker 4: quite some time. 1025 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:47,080 Speaker 2: No, we have. During the Callahan regime, you had all sorts. 1026 00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:50,439 Speaker 2: Not only did you have the first five were great, 1027 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:53,480 Speaker 2: but you always had guys behind who you felt very 1028 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:55,600 Speaker 2: good about if something happened. It felt like in the 1029 00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:57,480 Speaker 2: Covid year he was pulling guys off the street and 1030 00:47:57,480 --> 00:47:59,080 Speaker 2: they were coming in and playing great, and in some 1031 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:02,839 Speaker 2: instances he was, you know, So that's part of this 1032 00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:08,120 Speaker 2: thing as well. Ziner and Whippler are are Whippler was 1033 00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:11,760 Speaker 2: so good before the injury and getting a full season 1034 00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:13,200 Speaker 2: when you have that question of who will need to 1035 00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:16,360 Speaker 2: step up, those guys really need to prove this year 1036 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:19,200 Speaker 2: that that's not something that needs to be addressed going forward. 1037 00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:21,360 Speaker 2: The interior the future of the offensive line, so that 1038 00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:23,520 Speaker 2: next year when you get to the draft, hopefully you 1039 00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:25,640 Speaker 2: have a quarterback solution on this roster and then wouldn't 1040 00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:28,160 Speaker 2: that be something with two first round picks you could 1041 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:30,080 Speaker 2: then go get the best tackle on the board as 1042 00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:33,440 Speaker 2: part of that long term plan there. It gives you 1043 00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:35,799 Speaker 2: a lot of possibilities. Dwan's a big part of it though, 1044 00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:38,080 Speaker 2: But those those two young guys in the middle, big 1045 00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 2: time pedigree, they just set to prove that they are 1046 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:41,400 Speaker 2: who we think they. 1047 00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:44,280 Speaker 4: Are, correct, correct, So there's going to be I think, 1048 00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:47,200 Speaker 4: you know, we talk about preseason games being important obviously 1049 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:49,000 Speaker 4: in the quarterback position. I think it's gonna be really 1050 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:53,000 Speaker 4: important for Zinter and Jenkins and Luke Whippler on the interior, 1051 00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:54,920 Speaker 4: and then if any of the young guys that are 1052 00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:57,359 Speaker 4: on this roster playing tackle, if any of them can 1053 00:48:57,400 --> 00:49:00,400 Speaker 4: show yeah, I can be a part of this as well. 1054 00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:04,440 Speaker 4: So this is going to be it's going to be interesting, 1055 00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:06,000 Speaker 4: going to be a testing out all plays out. 1056 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:08,520 Speaker 2: I do think that there will be that this team. 1057 00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:11,600 Speaker 2: I do think upfront, you will revert to form, and 1058 00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:13,920 Speaker 2: I think it'll be very beneficial playing in a more 1059 00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:15,640 Speaker 2: traditional Kevin Stefanski offense. 1060 00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 5: Agreed. I think that would be very helpful. 1061 00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:19,680 Speaker 2: And I think it's going to be very nice because 1062 00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:23,279 Speaker 2: there was a disconnect between what we did offensively last year, 1063 00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:26,000 Speaker 2: I think in the front and I think those will 1064 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:28,640 Speaker 2: now be in lockstep. And I think what Joel and 1065 00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:31,880 Speaker 2: Wyatt and Ethan and Jack are comfortable in is the 1066 00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:34,800 Speaker 2: wide zone scheme, and I think they're going to roadblock 1067 00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:36,319 Speaker 2: a lot. I think we're going to run the ball 1068 00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:40,359 Speaker 2: an awful lot with those backs, and offensive linemen love 1069 00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:43,840 Speaker 2: doing that, and so it fits their skill set better 1070 00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:46,879 Speaker 2: than what they were asked to do a year ago. 1071 00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:51,240 Speaker 2: Very talented, but a lot of questions, and the primary 1072 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:53,280 Speaker 2: question is going to be health. You just need guys 1073 00:49:53,320 --> 00:49:58,560 Speaker 2: to stay healthy. That's Jack, that's Duan, that's obviously Joel, 1074 00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:00,719 Speaker 2: and Wyatt and Ethan, and then you need those young 1075 00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:03,799 Speaker 2: guys behind to prove that they are who you think 1076 00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:06,879 Speaker 2: they are. So this could be a situation where next 1077 00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:08,319 Speaker 2: year we're looking here and we're like, actually, you don't 1078 00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:11,040 Speaker 2: have any questions. Swan was a Pro Bowl offensive tackle. 1079 00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:13,120 Speaker 2: All of those things worked out, but we just need 1080 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 2: to see it kind of work itself out over the 1081 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:18,319 Speaker 2: course of this season.

Where 1121 00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:15,799 Speaker 2: will your eyes go right away when you see this 1122 00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:18,239 Speaker 2: Cleveland Browns team hit the practice fields for the first time. 1123 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:23,120 Speaker 15: Well, first, of course, is the quarterback battle. It's been 1124 00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:26,359 Speaker 15: some years before. It's been some years since we had one, 1125 00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:29,600 Speaker 15: and before that, every year was a quarterback battle, and 1126 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:32,359 Speaker 15: that that is you know, sort of the only thing 1127 00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:35,080 Speaker 15: we usually talk about here was who's going to be 1128 00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:38,080 Speaker 15: the next quarterback? And is that quarterback in the first 1129 00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:40,839 Speaker 15: round that we took, you know, going to pan out, 1130 00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:44,120 Speaker 15: whether it was you know, Brady Quinn, whether it's Colee McCoy, 1131 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:47,759 Speaker 15: whether it's Derek Anderson, and the list goes on and on, 1132 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:52,680 Speaker 15: and you know, we always had that quarterback a question mark. 1133 00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:55,120 Speaker 6: So I'm pretty I'm pretty. 1134 00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:57,480 Speaker 15: Excited about the quarterback battle this year because it was 1135 00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:00,359 Speaker 15: a it plagued us for the last few years and 1136 00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:05,480 Speaker 15: to have you know, valuable valuable assets at the quarterback 1137 00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:09,560 Speaker 15: position here, I no matter who the Browns choose on 1138 00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:12,120 Speaker 15: Week one, I know it's going to be somebody who 1139 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:14,319 Speaker 15: can run the offense and score points. 1140 00:53:15,040 --> 00:53:17,359 Speaker 2: They always hear people players will say this. They'll say, 1141 00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:20,799 Speaker 2: you can't fool the room. That if there is an 1142 00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:25,680 Speaker 2: agenda at the quarterback position, the room will undercut the agenda. 1143 00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:28,480 Speaker 2: You were a player and you were a part of 1144 00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:31,120 Speaker 2: these you were on these teams when you had quarterback competitions. 1145 00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:33,680 Speaker 2: Is there a way to fool the room or is 1146 00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:36,520 Speaker 2: that true that the room will the room will play 1147 00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:38,040 Speaker 2: out the way that it's supposed to play out, and 1148 00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:40,160 Speaker 2: you can't fool players. 1149 00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:43,719 Speaker 15: Yeah, it's true to a certain degree. You know, you 1150 00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:47,319 Speaker 15: can't fool players in the sense that if there is 1151 00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:50,239 Speaker 15: one player or two getting most of the reps, then 1152 00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:52,879 Speaker 15: you kind of see that that's the guy right there, 1153 00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:56,560 Speaker 15: regardless of you know, you know he's completing every pass 1154 00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:58,400 Speaker 15: or making every read. 1155 00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 6: If you know, we gotta understaying football. You know this 1156 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:03,640 Speaker 6: NFL life is business. It's business first. 1157 00:54:03,719 --> 00:54:05,960 Speaker 15: If you you know you draft the guy here, then 1158 00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:07,319 Speaker 15: that's the guy you're gonna want to play. 1159 00:54:07,360 --> 00:54:08,040 Speaker 6: That's the guy the. 1160 00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:10,359 Speaker 15: GM, the general manager's gonna want to play. If not 1161 00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:12,640 Speaker 15: we're gonna have to answer why did we take this 1162 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:15,560 Speaker 15: guy here? And he's not playing and he's behind this guy, 1163 00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:17,840 Speaker 15: so we always got to keep him mind the business 1164 00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:21,279 Speaker 15: of the NFL. And and when that, when you talk 1165 00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:23,280 Speaker 15: about the business of the NFL, and when you see 1166 00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:26,600 Speaker 15: who you have on this roster, you know, you kind 1167 00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 15: of align these guys as such. And you know, when 1168 00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:32,600 Speaker 15: you look at the Browns and you put that in perspective, 1169 00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:37,879 Speaker 15: we never in in coach the Fantasi's offense. We never needed, uh, 1170 00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:43,200 Speaker 15: you know, the Lamar Jackson type quarterbacks, Patrick Mahons type court. 1171 00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:43,640 Speaker 6: We don't. 1172 00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:45,759 Speaker 15: We don't need that guy. We this team. This is 1173 00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:49,880 Speaker 15: a team offense if ran smoothly and efficiently, you know, 1174 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:54,440 Speaker 15: created with balance, with a good running attack, which we 1175 00:54:54,560 --> 00:54:58,000 Speaker 15: have again you know, possibly the two headed monster led 1176 00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:00,680 Speaker 15: by Judkins. You know, if we have of that the 1177 00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:04,400 Speaker 15: balance necessary, then the quarterback is more so a piece 1178 00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:05,400 Speaker 15: to a bigger puzzle. 1179 00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:10,040 Speaker 4: Josh, when you look at it, you mentioned piece of 1180 00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:12,600 Speaker 4: bigger puzzle. In a division with Lamar Jackson, in a 1181 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:14,719 Speaker 4: division with Joe Burrow, and now in a division with 1182 00:55:14,800 --> 00:55:15,440 Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers. 1183 00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:17,880 Speaker 5: How important is it to get that right? And how quickly. 1184 00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:21,239 Speaker 4: Do you think in this process, does Kevin Sefancy need 1185 00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:23,120 Speaker 4: to identify Okay, this is the guy to get him 1186 00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:26,919 Speaker 4: ready since by the way we play those teams week 1187 00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:29,400 Speaker 4: one and week two, Joe Burrow, then we go Joe Burrow, 1188 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:34,959 Speaker 4: Lamar Jackson, Jared Goff, Jordan Love than Jared Goff. 1189 00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:37,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, in your first four weeks. 1190 00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:42,200 Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, it's very important, right, And you know, this 1191 00:55:42,360 --> 00:55:43,400 Speaker 15: is how you win games. 1192 00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:46,040 Speaker 6: You score points. You know, a lot of teams will. 1193 00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:49,040 Speaker 15: Point the defense, but it could be zero zero in 1194 00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:51,760 Speaker 15: the other team, but end up wearing our defense out. 1195 00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:52,759 Speaker 6: And kick a field go. 1196 00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:55,920 Speaker 15: So we have to score points. So this is the 1197 00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:59,239 Speaker 15: huge piece, the biggest piece to the puzzle, right And 1198 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:03,399 Speaker 15: whoever's there, you know, we'll have guys at the two 1199 00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:07,760 Speaker 15: and three position and maybe on practice squad will where 1200 00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:12,600 Speaker 15: I believe Shador Sanders will be. We'll have options to 1201 00:56:12,719 --> 00:56:17,520 Speaker 15: go deep into our bench that's not a UFL player 1202 00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:21,239 Speaker 15: or that's not somebody on the dirty roster spot that 1203 00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:24,879 Speaker 15: we just picked up on a whim. So at each level, 1204 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:27,560 Speaker 15: you know, two three, there is depth at the quarterback 1205 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:31,000 Speaker 15: position that is the highlight, that is the you know, 1206 00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:34,440 Speaker 15: antithesis to last season as far as far as how 1207 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:38,120 Speaker 15: we were with the quarterback situation. So I think if 1208 00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:41,480 Speaker 15: you look at this again and how we're constructed, I 1209 00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:43,520 Speaker 15: think if you look at this team in this division, 1210 00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:47,319 Speaker 15: we're sitting pretty good. It's not looking bad at all. 1211 00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:50,240 Speaker 15: If our running backs pan out, that'll make it easier 1212 00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:53,160 Speaker 15: for whatever quarterback to do the dinks and dunks, and 1213 00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:56,560 Speaker 15: then it's left up to Kevin Stefanski calling a decent 1214 00:56:56,680 --> 00:56:58,840 Speaker 15: play and then our defense. 1215 00:56:58,480 --> 00:56:59,279 Speaker 6: Has to show up. 1216 00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:03,560 Speaker 15: I'm looking forward too, and you asked this the first 1217 00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:07,040 Speaker 15: question is just not the quarterback battle. I'm looking forward 1218 00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:11,040 Speaker 15: to that defense being in monster to Mason, you know, 1219 00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:13,600 Speaker 15: showing why he was our first pick taking you know. 1220 00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:17,560 Speaker 15: I'm looking to that that those cornerbacks that those the Trio, 1221 00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:18,800 Speaker 15: I want to see it. 1222 00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:20,480 Speaker 6: Are they energized again? 1223 00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:23,640 Speaker 15: They were when I played softball with them. They were 1224 00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:27,120 Speaker 15: trying to win that softball game. So I'm I'm looking 1225 00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:32,880 Speaker 15: at Emerson, MJ. I'm looking at war and new So I'm. 1226 00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:34,400 Speaker 6: Looking at these guys. Are we going to have that 1227 00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:36,640 Speaker 6: defense that keeps us in games? 1228 00:57:36,920 --> 00:57:39,360 Speaker 15: And then our offense with two headed monster that helps 1229 00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:41,320 Speaker 15: us control in the run pass game. 1230 00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:43,200 Speaker 6: So there's multiple. 1231 00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:46,600 Speaker 15: Things that make us a complete weapon in the AFC North. 1232 00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:51,760 Speaker 2: What does it What does it mean for for cat 1233 00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:54,360 Speaker 2: So I'm asking you to get inside Kevin's head, but 1234 00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:56,760 Speaker 2: just to go back to what we believe he wants 1235 00:57:56,800 --> 00:57:59,680 Speaker 2: to be offensively. Uh, you understand why they did what 1236 00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:01,880 Speaker 2: the new year ago put de Shawn in the best 1237 00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:04,760 Speaker 2: position to succeed. But now this will be a return 1238 00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:08,000 Speaker 2: to what Kevin is most comfortable offensively. How does this 1239 00:58:08,120 --> 00:58:09,560 Speaker 2: roster fit that better? 1240 00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:14,560 Speaker 15: The running game? I think on any team, if you 1241 00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:18,360 Speaker 15: are able to run the ball, man you can, you 1242 00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:21,520 Speaker 15: can be a C plus quarterback and your team is 1243 00:58:21,560 --> 00:58:25,160 Speaker 15: going to the playoffs looking strong. In the AFC North, 1244 00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:26,320 Speaker 15: it's all about can. 1245 00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:27,120 Speaker 6: You run the ball. 1246 00:58:27,640 --> 00:58:30,400 Speaker 15: And if you can run the ball effectively, then you 1247 00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:34,360 Speaker 15: have an offense that can move the chains, that can 1248 00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:37,400 Speaker 15: play a safe defense that will have to cover the run, 1249 00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:38,840 Speaker 15: which opens up the pass. 1250 00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:39,960 Speaker 6: And we all know that. 1251 00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:44,280 Speaker 15: So if coach Kevin Stefanski can can muster up a 1252 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:47,760 Speaker 15: decent run attack with these pair of running backs, I 1253 00:58:47,800 --> 00:58:51,080 Speaker 15: mean he hopefully, because this means that the Browns are 1254 00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:54,480 Speaker 15: do good. I loved it when coach was winning, you know, 1255 00:58:54,640 --> 00:58:58,080 Speaker 15: Coach of the Year and having seasons like that when 1256 00:58:58,080 --> 00:58:59,800 Speaker 15: he's pulling those rabbit out of a hatch. 1257 00:58:59,800 --> 00:59:02,320 Speaker 6: But I think if our running backs. 1258 00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:05,200 Speaker 15: Are firing on all cylinders, Coach Kevin Stebaski's gonna end 1259 00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:08,880 Speaker 15: up calling another great season and then all those calls 1260 00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:11,760 Speaker 15: for you know, our hlad coast to change will all 1261 00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:12,600 Speaker 15: disappear again. 1262 00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:17,320 Speaker 4: Absolutely quite frankly, as they should disappear again. They were 1263 00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:20,040 Speaker 4: the guy who's done, I think, an incredible job under 1264 00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:23,560 Speaker 4: very very different circumstances, and he's been able to you know, 1265 00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:25,600 Speaker 4: as you said, two time Coach of the Year, there 1266 00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:28,400 Speaker 4: are not many of those in the National Football League 1267 00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:31,680 Speaker 4: in the history actually of the National Football League. Wanted 1268 00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:33,880 Speaker 4: to get your thoughts as well on the news that 1269 00:59:33,960 --> 00:59:37,240 Speaker 4: came out yesterday. I think an incredibly exciting time for 1270 00:59:37,320 --> 00:59:40,080 Speaker 4: the Browns and their fans and Northeast Ohio. 1271 00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:41,200 Speaker 5: The budget has approved. 1272 00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:43,840 Speaker 4: The Browns will be moving to Brook Park in twenty 1273 00:59:43,880 --> 00:59:47,000 Speaker 4: twenty nine with the state of the art enclosed facility, 1274 00:59:47,040 --> 00:59:50,080 Speaker 4: the enclosed stadium there that is going to be Josh 1275 00:59:50,080 --> 00:59:52,800 Speaker 4: for a period of time, the greatest stadium and most 1276 00:59:53,160 --> 00:59:57,360 Speaker 4: technologically advanced, most beautiful stadium on planet Earth. And to 1277 00:59:57,400 --> 00:59:59,000 Speaker 4: have that in Northeast Ohio. To have that for the 1278 00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:01,640 Speaker 4: Cleveland Browns, I think pretty exciting. What do you think 1279 01:00:01,680 --> 01:00:04,200 Speaker 4: about that? As a Browns alum and knowing maybe from 1280 01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:07,080 Speaker 4: a player standpoint, when you have that kind of a facility, 1281 01:00:07,240 --> 01:00:10,840 Speaker 4: how that can influence players and the game definitely. 1282 01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:12,760 Speaker 15: And I get this, I get this question asked a 1283 01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:14,760 Speaker 15: lot and a lot of fans come up to me 1284 01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:17,280 Speaker 15: and what do you think about the new stadium?

He's got really strong hands. 1468 01:09:20,400 --> 01:09:22,960 Speaker 16: He tracks the ball well, and you see it on 1469 01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:25,840 Speaker 16: tape every time he's been playing when you study him 1470 01:09:25,840 --> 01:09:28,560 Speaker 16: and where we were getting ready to see what he 1471 01:09:28,560 --> 01:09:31,160 Speaker 16: would be for us, and the guy catches everything, tracks 1472 01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:33,680 Speaker 16: the ball well and really adjusts to the ball in 1473 01:09:33,680 --> 01:09:35,520 Speaker 16: the the ball in the Airwell. 1474 01:09:35,200 --> 01:09:38,920 Speaker 12: You guys got him mark for a drops working Minica. 1475 01:09:39,400 --> 01:09:41,599 Speaker 16: I had to go back in the files. I don't 1476 01:09:41,600 --> 01:09:43,680 Speaker 16: think he's had to drop an easy drop. He might 1477 01:09:43,680 --> 01:09:45,280 Speaker 16: have had a contested catch drop, but I don't think 1478 01:09:45,320 --> 01:09:46,600 Speaker 16: he had well. 1479 01:09:46,680 --> 01:09:50,919 Speaker 7: Christian, what about his uh after the catch creation ability? 1480 01:09:50,920 --> 01:09:52,720 Speaker 7: It seems like that's something that shows up on his 1481 01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:54,800 Speaker 7: college film too. How have you guys seen that? 1482 01:09:54,840 --> 01:09:59,439 Speaker 16: I know it's no contact. Yeah, he's decisive and he's balanced. 1483 01:09:59,479 --> 01:10:01,240 Speaker 11: He has a lot a balance in his play, so. 1484 01:10:01,160 --> 01:10:03,960 Speaker 16: He really tacklers fall off of him. He tends to 1485 01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:05,960 Speaker 16: keep his feet running when somebody's coming at him, and 1486 01:10:06,360 --> 01:10:07,880 Speaker 16: he does a really good job of knowing whether to 1487 01:10:07,960 --> 01:10:11,200 Speaker 16: split or just make one miss and being really efficient 1488 01:10:11,240 --> 01:10:13,200 Speaker 16: and high runs the ball. I think that's where he 1489 01:10:13,240 --> 01:10:15,519 Speaker 16: really shows up, is he's balanced and efficient, and that's 1490 01:10:15,520 --> 01:10:18,360 Speaker 16: something you're always gonna see, is that accumulates in the 1491 01:10:18,400 --> 01:10:20,680 Speaker 16: extra yards and somebody pops up and you're like, oh wow, 1492 01:10:20,720 --> 01:10:22,400 Speaker 16: why does he have eight hundred nine of yards? It's 1493 01:10:22,400 --> 01:10:24,360 Speaker 16: because of those little decisions. 1494 01:10:24,439 --> 01:10:26,000 Speaker 2: So I would say that what's. 1495 01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:28,320 Speaker 7: The biggest digestion for a for a young tight end 1496 01:10:28,400 --> 01:10:29,439 Speaker 7: coming into the NFL. 1497 01:10:29,200 --> 01:10:30,000 Speaker 2: What's the thing there going? 1498 01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:32,639 Speaker 16: I would say the breadth of the playbook as well 1499 01:10:32,680 --> 01:10:34,800 Speaker 16: as the amount of defensive looks that you have to 1500 01:10:34,840 --> 01:10:38,160 Speaker 16: look at even in the offseason. Right, we're wasting, You're 1501 01:10:38,160 --> 01:10:41,639 Speaker 16: facing normal force, deep four down front. But Schwartz's defense, 1502 01:10:41,680 --> 01:10:43,840 Speaker 16: they'll put anything in, they'll run anything. So now he's 1503 01:10:43,840 --> 01:10:45,479 Speaker 16: looking at a six one in front, he's looking at 1504 01:10:45,520 --> 01:10:48,559 Speaker 16: some kind of underfront like it could be anything, and 1505 01:10:48,560 --> 01:10:50,840 Speaker 16: he has to be ready to think quickly as well 1506 01:10:50,840 --> 01:10:53,479 Speaker 16: as be ready for ten, twelve, thirty different calls on 1507 01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:53,840 Speaker 16: the debt. 1508 01:10:54,280 --> 01:10:57,240 Speaker 14: Do you think you will understand how complicated. Playing tight 1509 01:10:57,360 --> 01:10:57,719 Speaker 14: end does. 1510 01:10:57,640 --> 01:11:01,200 Speaker 16: The l It's a little unappreciated, hard to be appreciated more. 1511 01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:03,639 Speaker 16: But I still think there's a lot to learn about 1512 01:11:03,680 --> 01:11:04,759 Speaker 16: playing tight end the NFL. 1513 01:11:05,080 --> 01:11:07,080 Speaker 15: And what about how stated? 1514 01:11:07,320 --> 01:11:12,000 Speaker 7: I know we only saw, but what just be your 1515 01:11:12,040 --> 01:11:13,240 Speaker 7: first impressions in football? 1516 01:11:13,280 --> 01:11:14,080 Speaker 14: And third impressive? 1517 01:11:14,400 --> 01:11:15,519 Speaker 5: He brings a lot of energy. 1518 01:11:15,800 --> 01:11:17,560 Speaker 16: He loves football and brings a lot of energy, and 1519 01:11:17,600 --> 01:11:20,439 Speaker 16: he wants to be out there playing and supporting his teammate. 1520 01:11:20,479 --> 01:11:22,680 Speaker 16: I think that's something that I've sayed from the day 1521 01:11:22,720 --> 01:11:24,240 Speaker 16: he came in and when we talked a little bit 1522 01:11:24,280 --> 01:11:26,400 Speaker 16: earlier before I even got him to Cleveland, is he 1523 01:11:26,400 --> 01:11:28,600 Speaker 16: loves his teammates, wants to play, and he wants to 1524 01:11:28,640 --> 01:11:29,920 Speaker 16: get back to the level that he's been at. 1525 01:11:29,960 --> 01:11:30,639 Speaker 11: He really takes his. 1526 01:11:30,600 --> 01:11:32,400 Speaker 16: Game seriously and that's been great to have in the room. 1527 01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:34,479 Speaker 16: And forgot to see the scale of. 1528 01:11:34,560 --> 01:11:35,600 Speaker 11: Tight end appreciation. 1529 01:11:35,720 --> 01:11:37,000 Speaker 2: You said we've made some progress. 1530 01:11:37,240 --> 01:11:38,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, what progress have we made? 1531 01:11:39,120 --> 01:11:40,840 Speaker 11: And then what do we still not play? 1532 01:11:41,280 --> 01:11:41,439 Speaker 4: Well? 1533 01:11:41,479 --> 01:11:43,840 Speaker 16: We finally have a was a tight end appreciation day, right, 1534 01:11:43,880 --> 01:11:44,720 Speaker 16: We got tight ends Day. 1535 01:11:44,720 --> 01:11:46,360 Speaker 11: We got T shirts that are going around the league. 1536 01:11:46,360 --> 01:11:49,320 Speaker 16: So I'd say it's that, and it's it's using bigger 1537 01:11:49,360 --> 01:11:52,759 Speaker 16: personnels to try and create passing opportunities, staying a smaller 1538 01:11:52,760 --> 01:11:53,680 Speaker 16: person else to run the ball. 1539 01:11:53,680 --> 01:11:55,600 Speaker 11: It's just being versatile. 1540 01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:56,920 Speaker 16: On how you approach the game and how you approach 1541 01:11:57,000 --> 01:11:59,400 Speaker 16: game planning and using tight ends in different positions. They 1542 01:11:59,400 --> 01:12:01,439 Speaker 16: don't always have a block, They don't always have to 1543 01:12:01,520 --> 01:12:03,679 Speaker 16: run routes that are love of the game. 1544 01:12:03,720 --> 01:12:05,559 Speaker 5: Not we love those, We need to do those right. 1545 01:12:05,600 --> 01:12:07,840 Speaker 16: But Titans can be playmakers and I think we're starting 1546 01:12:07,840 --> 01:12:10,080 Speaker 16: to see a lot more athletic players show up and 1547 01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:11,839 Speaker 16: I think the game will change as that happens. 1548 01:12:12,280 --> 01:12:15,600 Speaker 10: You're this position under Devin Stefanski has been sort of 1549 01:12:15,600 --> 01:12:16,719 Speaker 10: approving grounds. 1550 01:12:16,800 --> 01:12:18,960 Speaker 5: So yeah, it's a position he really is. 1551 01:12:19,720 --> 01:12:21,360 Speaker 11: That a big part of it that you have to 1552 01:12:21,360 --> 01:12:22,200 Speaker 11: be involved in so. 1553 01:12:22,160 --> 01:12:25,080 Speaker 7: Many aspects of the offense and just sort of understand 1554 01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:25,799 Speaker 7: every piece. 1555 01:12:25,600 --> 01:12:27,400 Speaker 11: Of the offense. Yeah, you hit it right on the money. 1556 01:12:27,479 --> 01:12:29,559 Speaker 16: You have to be involved in every aspect of the 1557 01:12:29,600 --> 01:12:33,120 Speaker 16: offense and typically don't have as much meeting time as 1558 01:12:33,200 --> 01:12:35,240 Speaker 16: quarterbacks would get. Right when special teams are going on, 1559 01:12:35,320 --> 01:12:37,559 Speaker 16: the Titans are in special teams meetings, So you have 1560 01:12:37,600 --> 01:12:39,960 Speaker 16: to be really efficient with your time, and typically the 1561 01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:41,360 Speaker 16: Titans have to be really smart because they have to 1562 01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:44,240 Speaker 16: be able to digest everything quickly and apply that on 1563 01:12:44,280 --> 01:12:45,920 Speaker 16: the field, right, And they have to do a lot 1564 01:12:45,920 --> 01:12:48,040 Speaker 16: of studying on their own. So you gotta find guys 1565 01:12:48,080 --> 01:12:50,920 Speaker 16: that are self sufficient, want to work, will look for 1566 01:12:50,960 --> 01:12:52,640 Speaker 16: you to work, but also we'll do it on their 1567 01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:53,080 Speaker 16: own as well. 1568 01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:54,679 Speaker 2: So it takes a lot of work in the building 1569 01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:55,160 Speaker 2: and outside. 1570 01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:56,839 Speaker 7: I would say when you talk about. 1571 01:12:56,640 --> 01:12:58,960 Speaker 2: Data beam like so motivated. 1572 01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:01,120 Speaker 11: I know here last year with him, but if. 1573 01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:04,400 Speaker 7: He went through so many manging injuries, like, has he 1574 01:13:04,640 --> 01:13:06,960 Speaker 7: talked about that or expressed frustration with the year and 1575 01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:08,960 Speaker 7: wanting to to put that behind him? 1576 01:13:09,439 --> 01:13:10,920 Speaker 16: Yeah, I mean he had a tough year last year, 1577 01:13:10,920 --> 01:13:12,720 Speaker 16: a lot of things going on with injuries, and I 1578 01:13:12,720 --> 01:13:15,040 Speaker 16: think he fought through them all well, like he's always gonna. 1579 01:13:14,800 --> 01:13:15,799 Speaker 11: Try and be out on the field. 1580 01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:18,040 Speaker 16: And that's something that I've heard and the scene expressed 1581 01:13:18,120 --> 01:13:21,040 Speaker 16: from him. And yeah, that's as it's visible frustration when 1582 01:13:21,080 --> 01:13:22,479 Speaker 16: you asked him how the last year went. That's the 1583 01:13:22,520 --> 01:13:24,960 Speaker 16: first thing we talk about, rights injuries, how it held 1584 01:13:25,040 --> 01:13:27,040 Speaker 16: him back and what he wants to do as a player, right, 1585 01:13:27,120 --> 01:13:29,240 Speaker 16: be out there every game that he can and play 1586 01:13:29,240 --> 01:13:31,120 Speaker 16: as many snaps as he can. I think that's something 1587 01:13:31,120 --> 01:13:32,759 Speaker 16: that he's aiming to do this year and I'm excited 1588 01:13:32,800 --> 01:13:33,120 Speaker 16: to see it. 1589 01:13:33,600 --> 01:13:35,679 Speaker 11: Then everything that's on the tight ends played to be. 1590 01:13:35,760 --> 01:13:37,920 Speaker 14: Then you add in the fact that Harold was kind 1591 01:13:37,920 --> 01:13:39,879 Speaker 14: of flows in the position. 1592 01:13:39,960 --> 01:13:42,080 Speaker 11: How do you balance pushing. 1593 01:13:41,800 --> 01:13:44,880 Speaker 16: Him and being impatient with him to always gonna be 1594 01:13:44,880 --> 01:13:47,200 Speaker 16: all pushing like, you gotta push him and make it 1595 01:13:47,200 --> 01:13:50,040 Speaker 16: and see where you know at some point rookies always 1596 01:13:50,080 --> 01:13:52,200 Speaker 16: hit a wall right with the installs, with the amount 1597 01:13:52,200 --> 01:13:54,280 Speaker 16: of defenses they see. So you try to push him 1598 01:13:54,360 --> 01:13:57,040 Speaker 16: up until that wall and then find ways new ways 1599 01:13:57,080 --> 01:13:59,200 Speaker 16: to teach them, new ways to help them, learn new 1600 01:13:59,240 --> 01:14:01,439 Speaker 16: ways to retain itmation so that way they can keep 1601 01:14:01,439 --> 01:14:03,880 Speaker 16: pushing past it. I think that's something that always happens guys. 1602 01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:06,679 Speaker 16: Once you get to install whatever five to six guys 1603 01:14:06,680 --> 01:14:07,800 Speaker 16: start to it starts. 1604 01:14:07,520 --> 01:14:08,280 Speaker 11: To flood their head. 1605 01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:10,760 Speaker 16: You gotta find ways to bring them back. Think, think, 1606 01:14:10,960 --> 01:14:13,400 Speaker 16: think through things clearly, and then approach it maybe a 1607 01:14:13,439 --> 01:14:13,880 Speaker 16: different way. 1608 01:14:14,040 --> 01:14:15,559 Speaker 13: So I think that you win a lot more. 1609 01:14:17,880 --> 01:14:19,800 Speaker 11: There's the future that's where you need and want to. 1610 01:14:21,520 --> 01:14:25,680 Speaker 16: Uh, that's a great question. I think as the game evolves, 1611 01:14:25,800 --> 01:14:28,919 Speaker 16: as nutrition gets better, weight training continues to grow. 1612 01:14:29,400 --> 01:14:30,120 Speaker 2: And players. 1613 01:14:30,120 --> 01:14:32,400 Speaker 16: Obviously, guys are getting bigger, faster, stronger, So I think 1614 01:14:32,400 --> 01:14:34,519 Speaker 16: you're just gonna see a lot more athletic players out there, 1615 01:14:34,800 --> 01:14:36,519 Speaker 16: and I think you're gonna see guys running a lot 1616 01:14:36,560 --> 01:14:39,000 Speaker 16: more unique routes. I think we've got there's a lot 1617 01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:40,400 Speaker 16: of there's a lot of tight ends in the class 1618 01:14:40,439 --> 01:14:42,439 Speaker 16: this year that are really athletic and could go out 1619 01:14:42,479 --> 01:14:44,400 Speaker 16: and line up that number one and one run routes 1620 01:14:44,400 --> 01:14:46,639 Speaker 16: and win. And Herold has done that in college as well, 1621 01:14:46,640 --> 01:14:47,920 Speaker 16: So I think you're gonna see a lot of tight 1622 01:14:48,000 --> 01:14:50,960 Speaker 16: ends that can be efficient receivers, both in the slot 1623 01:14:51,040 --> 01:14:52,479 Speaker 16: attached and even out at. 1624 01:14:52,400 --> 01:14:53,799 Speaker 11: Number one versus press coverage. 1625 01:14:53,840 --> 01:14:54,920 Speaker 5: I think that'll happen at some. 1626 01:14:54,840 --> 01:15:02,960 Speaker 14: Point, especially cast here, like he really came out for 1627 01:15:03,600 --> 01:15:04,840 Speaker 14: you knew guys, He's gonna take care. 1628 01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:09,000 Speaker 16: I I it was kind of a whirlwind, cause I 1629 01:15:09,080 --> 01:15:10,960 Speaker 16: kind of like I was just sitting there waiting to 1630 01:15:10,960 --> 01:15:12,719 Speaker 16: see what would happen. That gets a little bit different 1631 01:15:12,760 --> 01:15:15,120 Speaker 16: than every team, But once I saw the name flash up, 1632 01:15:15,120 --> 01:15:16,840 Speaker 16: it was a lot of excitement, and I got to 1633 01:15:16,880 --> 01:15:19,720 Speaker 16: know him through the process, so I was honestly just 1634 01:15:19,760 --> 01:15:21,599 Speaker 16: more happy for him and excited for him and his 1635 01:15:21,600 --> 01:15:23,880 Speaker 16: family he'd been through a lot and his family been 1636 01:15:23,920 --> 01:15:25,439 Speaker 16: through a lot and got getting to meet them. They're 1637 01:15:25,479 --> 01:15:27,760 Speaker 16: all really close and they all support each other, so 1638 01:15:28,160 --> 01:15:29,760 Speaker 16: I know what it means for a family to to 1639 01:15:30,040 --> 01:15:31,200 Speaker 16: have somebody accomplish something. 1640 01:15:31,320 --> 01:15:33,960 Speaker 11: Everybody feels like they helped. So I was more excited 1641 01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:34,439 Speaker 11: for them. 1642 01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:36,599 Speaker 15: What do you like kind of talk about your time 1643 01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:39,519 Speaker 15: because skilfuls falling like all back in age mill that's 1644 01:15:39,840 --> 01:15:42,519 Speaker 15: have a specialist that I mean kind of like seeing 1645 01:15:42,560 --> 01:15:43,760 Speaker 15: his excitement. 1646 01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:46,240 Speaker 11: And people things that change like all these Yeah, that 1647 01:15:46,360 --> 01:15:46,679 Speaker 11: was great. 1648 01:15:47,600 --> 01:15:49,240 Speaker 16: I couldn't see much because he was trying to put 1649 01:15:49,280 --> 01:15:50,640 Speaker 16: his ear to the phone to hear me, cause it 1650 01:15:50,720 --> 01:15:51,760 Speaker 16: was a lot of screaming going on. 1651 01:15:51,960 --> 01:15:54,160 Speaker 1: But I could tell by you know, you could tell 1652 01:15:54,240 --> 01:15:55,000 Speaker 1: by the tone. 1653 01:15:54,800 --> 01:15:56,880 Speaker 16: And everything that's going on in the background that they're excited. 1654 01:15:56,920 --> 01:15:58,120 Speaker 5: So that's all I really needed to see. 1655 01:15:58,479 --> 01:15:59,760 Speaker 11: All I told him was time to work. 1656 01:16:00,200 --> 01:16:02,479 Speaker 16: I'm not here to high five you, I shake your 1657 01:16:02,479 --> 01:16:04,439 Speaker 16: handsake congratulations. But once you step in and doing this, 1658 01:16:04,520 --> 01:16:06,200 Speaker 16: time to go to work. So that's the first thing 1659 01:16:06,200 --> 01:16:07,680 Speaker 16: I told him this' well I tell him every day. 1660 01:16:08,160 --> 01:16:08,840 Speaker 11: All right, there you go. 1661 01:16:09,000 --> 01:16:12,120 Speaker 2: Tight ends coach Christian Jones from Mandatory mini camp. The 1662 01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:15,120 Speaker 2: tight end room as follows. David Njoku, Harold Fan and 1663 01:16:15,200 --> 01:16:18,519 Speaker 2: Junior Blake White, Art, Brennan Bates, and Sal Kanala. Those 1664 01:16:18,840 --> 01:16:21,160 Speaker 2: are your tight ends. This is a room that will 1665 01:16:21,200 --> 01:16:25,240 Speaker 2: be leaned upon heavily offensively this season, especially in the 1666 01:16:25,280 --> 01:16:25,760 Speaker 2: past game. 1667 01:16:25,880 --> 01:16:27,599 Speaker 4: Doc di Zi, Yeah, and I think we're gonna play 1668 01:16:27,600 --> 01:16:29,519 Speaker 4: a lot of twelve personnel, much like we talked about 1669 01:16:29,560 --> 01:16:32,920 Speaker 4: yesterday that you think you know down in Pittsburgh that 1670 01:16:32,960 --> 01:16:34,720 Speaker 4: they're going to play a lot of twelve personnel. And 1671 01:16:34,800 --> 01:16:36,360 Speaker 4: what do they say, Oh, we see John new Smith 1672 01:16:36,360 --> 01:16:38,040 Speaker 4: as that second tight end, but we also see him 1673 01:16:38,080 --> 01:16:40,479 Speaker 4: as a big slot receiver. Well what have I been 1674 01:16:40,479 --> 01:16:42,840 Speaker 4: saying about Harold Fan and Jr. I see him as 1675 01:16:42,840 --> 01:16:44,360 Speaker 4: a second tight end, but I also see him as 1676 01:16:44,400 --> 01:16:47,280 Speaker 4: a big slot receiver. One thing the Browns need to do, though, 1677 01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:49,960 Speaker 4: was get the ball to David Djoku further down the field. 1678 01:16:50,040 --> 01:16:52,920 Speaker 4: Last year career low seven point nine yards per catch. 1679 01:16:53,560 --> 01:16:56,120 Speaker 4: That is hard for me to get my head around. 1680 01:16:56,800 --> 01:16:59,360 Speaker 4: And you go back to when David Adjoku was at 1681 01:16:59,400 --> 01:17:01,400 Speaker 4: his best, it was twenty twenty one to twenty two. 1682 01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:03,519 Speaker 4: I know when twenty three went to the Pro Bowl, 1683 01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:07,840 Speaker 4: he had that excellent run with Flacco. His stats were 1684 01:17:07,880 --> 01:17:12,320 Speaker 4: booied bigly by the five games with Joe Flacco. But 1685 01:17:13,080 --> 01:17:15,880 Speaker 4: that's where David Djoku's been at his best, and that's 1686 01:17:15,960 --> 01:17:18,439 Speaker 4: more in the traditional offense. I think the times the 1687 01:17:18,520 --> 01:17:20,600 Speaker 4: periods where David Joku's numbers have been well down over 1688 01:17:20,640 --> 01:17:23,360 Speaker 4: the last three seasons, it's been the times where it 1689 01:17:23,479 --> 01:17:25,439 Speaker 4: has been kind of that different offense that was put 1690 01:17:25,479 --> 01:17:28,800 Speaker 4: into cater more to Deshaun. I think that you're going 1691 01:17:28,880 --> 01:17:32,559 Speaker 4: to see David Joku do very well in this offense. 1692 01:17:32,600 --> 01:17:35,040 Speaker 4: And I think Harold Fannin as well is going to 1693 01:17:35,080 --> 01:17:36,760 Speaker 4: do very well. But you want to get to chieve 1694 01:17:36,840 --> 01:17:38,120 Speaker 4: back to Pro Bowl. For me, is one of the 1695 01:17:38,320 --> 01:17:39,960 Speaker 4: best two way tight ends. What I mean by that 1696 01:17:40,080 --> 01:17:43,040 Speaker 4: is pass catching but also blocking. Uh and and now 1697 01:17:43,080 --> 01:17:44,920 Speaker 4: you add in Fannin, who I think it's going to 1698 01:17:44,960 --> 01:17:46,680 Speaker 4: be more of a receiver. That's why I'm not as 1699 01:17:46,720 --> 01:17:49,280 Speaker 4: worried about our receiver room as some people may be, 1700 01:17:49,960 --> 01:17:52,160 Speaker 4: because I kind of see fan In as a as 1701 01:17:52,240 --> 01:17:53,680 Speaker 4: a receiver. I think you line him up as a 1702 01:17:53,720 --> 01:17:56,519 Speaker 4: big slot in this and he's going to be very effective. 1703 01:17:56,800 --> 01:17:58,920 Speaker 2: Then do you think that this room is fully formed 1704 01:17:58,960 --> 01:18:00,599 Speaker 2: or do you think there's opportunity you need to add 1705 01:18:00,680 --> 01:18:00,880 Speaker 2: to it. 1706 01:18:02,760 --> 01:18:03,200 Speaker 13: This room. 1707 01:18:03,360 --> 01:18:06,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know they like Blake Whiteheart a lot. But yes, 1708 01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:08,840 Speaker 4: of course there's opportunity to add to this room. It's 1709 01:18:08,880 --> 01:18:10,160 Speaker 4: a very very important room. 1710 01:18:10,360 --> 01:18:12,680 Speaker 2: So that wouldn't Yeah, if you're gonna shock me, if 1711 01:18:12,680 --> 01:18:14,439 Speaker 2: you're gonna kind of rob Peter to pay Paul a 1712 01:18:14,479 --> 01:18:16,400 Speaker 2: little bit in the receiver room, then I think you 1713 01:18:16,520 --> 01:18:17,160 Speaker 2: might want another. 1714 01:18:17,400 --> 01:18:19,439 Speaker 5: You want a third tight end that you know can block. 1715 01:18:19,439 --> 01:18:20,479 Speaker 2: I mean Pittsburgh's got three. 1716 01:18:20,720 --> 01:18:21,840 Speaker 5: Yep, you want to third tight end. 1717 01:18:23,640 --> 01:18:25,800 Speaker 2: There's gonna be somebody else you need. I think one more. 1718 01:18:26,120 --> 01:18:29,519 Speaker 2: Maybe what's reasonable for Harold Fan and Junior in near one. 1719 01:18:32,560 --> 01:18:34,560 Speaker 4: Move the chains important catch. I don't know from a 1720 01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:36,840 Speaker 4: statistical standpoint what that's going to look like. I don't know, 1721 01:18:37,040 --> 01:18:38,680 Speaker 4: you know, number one, how much we're gonna throw for. 1722 01:18:38,840 --> 01:18:42,320 Speaker 4: But I think Harold Fannon being a chess piece, the 1723 01:18:42,360 --> 01:18:45,200 Speaker 4: reasonable expectation is he's a chess piece, that he plays 1724 01:18:45,280 --> 01:18:47,280 Speaker 4: a good deal, and that he makes some big catches 1725 01:18:47,760 --> 01:18:50,160 Speaker 4: good after the catch, that he's a seal contribber. 1726 01:18:50,200 --> 01:18:51,559 Speaker 5: Maybe that's you know, you go back to what was. 1727 01:18:51,560 --> 01:18:54,280 Speaker 4: Like Chief's rocky year three thirty two catches throwing eighty 1728 01:18:54,320 --> 01:18:55,280 Speaker 4: six yards four touchdowns. 1729 01:18:55,280 --> 01:18:57,599 Speaker 5: That feels kind of reasonable to me for Harold Fanning 1730 01:18:57,680 --> 01:18:58,000 Speaker 5: this year. 1731 01:18:58,040 --> 01:18:59,439 Speaker 2: Do you think you'll be top four in this team 1732 01:18:59,479 --> 01:18:59,880 Speaker 2: in reception? 1733 01:19:09,000 --> 01:19:11,719 Speaker 5: Possible, possible, top six for sure. 1734 01:19:11,760 --> 01:19:16,200 Speaker 2: Judy Chief. Judy Chief should better be Tillman. 1735 01:19:16,080 --> 01:19:17,519 Speaker 5: Maybe a third down running back. 1736 01:19:17,920 --> 01:19:19,720 Speaker 4: And then I would say, whoever kind of emerges that 1737 01:19:19,760 --> 01:19:22,200 Speaker 4: second receiver between Tilman and Deontay Johnson. 1738 01:19:22,280 --> 01:19:24,200 Speaker 5: I think that there are people who think. 1739 01:19:24,160 --> 01:19:29,479 Speaker 4: Deontay Johnson, if motivated and in the right frame of mind, 1740 01:19:29,600 --> 01:19:31,679 Speaker 4: is going to be a very effective player for this team. 1741 01:19:32,280 --> 01:19:32,479 Speaker 5: Hope. 1742 01:19:32,560 --> 01:19:36,080 Speaker 2: So certainly, certainly two years ago and most of his 1743 01:19:36,160 --> 01:19:38,000 Speaker 2: career was that last year was was kind of a 1744 01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:41,559 Speaker 2: little bit different. Yeah, there you go. There is your 1745 01:19:41,960 --> 01:19:45,000 Speaker 2: Tide end room. We are back to naming our Browns 1746 01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:47,759 Speaker 2: quarter century team.

Yeah, yeah, so it's not quite as strong 1772 01:21:31,920 --> 01:21:35,599 Speaker 2: as the offensive line list, but it's a very good list. 1773 01:21:35,920 --> 01:21:37,960 Speaker 4: Well, we're gonna get our four easy, I mean, let's 1774 01:21:37,960 --> 01:21:39,519 Speaker 4: go ahead, and Nick Chubb's the starter. 1775 01:21:39,760 --> 01:21:42,400 Speaker 2: Let's have a Nick Chubb conversation quickly here, because I 1776 01:21:42,439 --> 01:21:45,040 Speaker 2: think Nick Chubb is also one of the two running 1777 01:21:45,080 --> 01:21:47,160 Speaker 2: backs on the I think he's this is he the starter, 1778 01:21:47,479 --> 01:21:49,080 Speaker 2: He is the starter him and no, No, on the 1779 01:21:49,160 --> 01:21:50,919 Speaker 2: All Time it's him and Jim Brown. 1780 01:21:52,240 --> 01:21:58,200 Speaker 5: List, it's Leroy Kelly, It's Chubb, Marion Motley. 1781 01:21:59,320 --> 01:22:05,880 Speaker 2: That's kind of a that's a tough one. It's kind everything. Yeah, 1782 01:22:05,960 --> 01:22:08,040 Speaker 2: Motley would probably, he would certainly. 1783 01:22:07,840 --> 01:22:10,599 Speaker 5: Leroy Kelly like right now. I mean, here's the thing. 1784 01:22:10,840 --> 01:22:12,639 Speaker 4: You've got Jim Brown in the Hall of Fame, You've 1785 01:22:12,680 --> 01:22:14,800 Speaker 4: got Leroy Kelly in the Hall of Fame, and you've 1786 01:22:14,880 --> 01:22:17,080 Speaker 4: got Mary Mottley in the Hall of Fame. 1787 01:22:17,520 --> 01:22:21,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, Chubb makes the team. I think he's I think 1788 01:22:21,880 --> 01:22:22,400 Speaker 2: he makes. 1789 01:22:22,320 --> 01:22:24,320 Speaker 5: On our All Time team. Yeah, but he might be 1790 01:22:24,479 --> 01:22:25,880 Speaker 5: like RB four. 1791 01:22:27,280 --> 01:22:29,040 Speaker 2: I don't. I don't have any point of reference on 1792 01:22:29,160 --> 01:22:31,240 Speaker 2: Leroy Kelly, but I think that there was definitely I 1793 01:22:31,240 --> 01:22:33,080 Speaker 2: mean I'm aware of statistically, but I don't have any 1794 01:22:33,120 --> 01:22:35,040 Speaker 2: point in terms of watching him play. No, that there 1795 01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:36,880 Speaker 2: was certainly a stretch when I would have said Nick 1796 01:22:36,920 --> 01:22:38,360 Speaker 2: Chubb was the best running back in football. 1797 01:22:39,360 --> 01:22:41,920 Speaker 4: Yes, Unfortunately, I think for Nick Chubb, it was a 1798 01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:45,479 Speaker 4: a three year, four year run. 1799 01:22:45,720 --> 01:22:47,960 Speaker 5: So just Leroy Kelly, give you just just yeah. 1800 01:22:48,680 --> 01:22:50,479 Speaker 4: Led the league in rushing twice, led the league in 1801 01:22:50,520 --> 01:22:52,879 Speaker 4: touchdowns three times, led the league in yards from scrimmage 1802 01:22:52,920 --> 01:22:56,840 Speaker 4: and touchdowns twice a piece. Was in a his best 1803 01:22:56,880 --> 01:22:59,920 Speaker 4: four year stretch. He was first team, first team, first 1804 01:23:00,040 --> 01:23:02,320 Speaker 4: Team's second team. He was six straight years as a 1805 01:23:02,360 --> 01:23:05,200 Speaker 4: pro bowler. He was He had three seasons where he 1806 01:23:05,320 --> 01:23:08,839 Speaker 4: was top four in the MVP voting. So that's that's 1807 01:23:08,920 --> 01:23:12,360 Speaker 4: the Hall of Famer All nineteen sixty team. That's the 1808 01:23:12,400 --> 01:23:16,160 Speaker 4: thing with Nick Chubb is great and beyond reproach. He's 1809 01:23:16,200 --> 01:23:18,719 Speaker 4: a four time pro bowler. He is a one time 1810 01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:21,599 Speaker 4: second team All Pro. Never was a first team All Pro. 1811 01:23:22,439 --> 01:23:25,120 Speaker 4: And unfortunately, just because of I think like it would 1812 01:23:25,120 --> 01:23:26,720 Speaker 4: be hard for him to be on an All decade team, 1813 01:23:26,840 --> 01:23:29,640 Speaker 4: just because of the quickness and also the competition that 1814 01:23:29,760 --> 01:23:32,800 Speaker 4: he's faced at his position. So when you look at that, 1815 01:23:33,720 --> 01:23:35,960 Speaker 4: and then here's the one that I had to get 1816 01:23:36,080 --> 01:23:38,120 Speaker 4: educated on in my four eight to the Cleveland Browns. 1817 01:23:38,160 --> 01:23:41,160 Speaker 4: But you know, Marriyan Motley, two time first team All Pro, 1818 01:23:41,280 --> 01:23:43,679 Speaker 4: two times second team All Pro, obviously a completely different 1819 01:23:43,720 --> 01:23:45,799 Speaker 4: game era all of it for sure, don't. 1820 01:23:45,680 --> 01:23:46,240 Speaker 2: Get me kill. 1821 01:23:48,240 --> 01:23:51,280 Speaker 5: And then Jim Brown, that's best player ever. 1822 01:23:51,640 --> 01:23:51,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1823 01:23:52,840 --> 01:23:54,160 Speaker 4: And then one of the other ones that you'd have 1824 01:23:54,280 --> 01:23:56,680 Speaker 4: to look at from it was the one from the 1825 01:23:56,760 --> 01:23:59,680 Speaker 4: Brown standpoint as well. And I don't know if he's 1826 01:23:59,680 --> 01:24:01,960 Speaker 4: a pure running back, but I mean on some level 1827 01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:05,320 Speaker 4: he's a running back. Was Bobby Mitchell, who is also 1828 01:24:05,400 --> 01:24:07,240 Speaker 4: in the Hall of Fame as four time Pro Bowler, 1829 01:24:07,880 --> 01:24:10,400 Speaker 4: First Team All Pro, Top three in MVP voting. He's 1830 01:24:10,400 --> 01:24:13,360 Speaker 4: a guy that's got seven hundred yard rushing seasons under 1831 01:24:13,400 --> 01:24:15,240 Speaker 4: his belt, average five point three yards per kerry for 1832 01:24:15,320 --> 01:24:19,160 Speaker 4: his career, and also has multiple thirteen hundred and eighty 1833 01:24:19,200 --> 01:24:21,800 Speaker 4: four plus yard receiving seasons under his belt. I mean, 1834 01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:23,760 Speaker 4: he was a receiver, but he's also played half back. 1835 01:24:23,800 --> 01:24:25,439 Speaker 4: He was a flanker and a half back and again 1836 01:24:25,600 --> 01:24:27,920 Speaker 4: completely different here. A hard to put your to get 1837 01:24:27,960 --> 01:24:30,599 Speaker 4: your head around that, but not for our conversation obviously, 1838 01:24:30,680 --> 01:24:33,360 Speaker 4: when you're talking of all the time, five Pro Bowls 1839 01:24:33,400 --> 01:24:33,680 Speaker 4: for him. 1840 01:24:33,760 --> 01:24:35,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good group, all right. So Chubb's on 1841 01:24:35,920 --> 01:24:37,479 Speaker 2: this list though he's obviously the starter. 1842 01:24:38,080 --> 01:24:40,680 Speaker 4: Yes, Chubb is on this list, and Chubb is the 1843 01:24:40,720 --> 01:24:46,240 Speaker 4: starter I think RB two is Jamal Lewis, and people 1844 01:24:46,240 --> 01:24:46,679 Speaker 4: would say. 1845 01:24:46,560 --> 01:24:48,080 Speaker 5: Hey, he's like a raven and all that, But how 1846 01:24:48,120 --> 01:24:49,439 Speaker 5: long was he here? What wasmu? 1847 01:24:49,520 --> 01:24:52,040 Speaker 4: Lewis was here for three seasons two thousand and seven, 1848 01:24:52,040 --> 01:24:53,200 Speaker 4: two and two thousand and nine. 1849 01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:55,760 Speaker 5: He went thirteen hundred and four and nine. Then he 1850 01:24:55,920 --> 01:24:56,080 Speaker 5: had it. 1851 01:24:56,160 --> 01:24:58,720 Speaker 4: He had back to back thousand yard seasons coming off 1852 01:24:58,760 --> 01:25:01,200 Speaker 4: of that big He was the Comeback Player of the 1853 01:25:01,280 --> 01:25:04,000 Speaker 4: Year in two thousand and seven, number fourth in that voting. 1854 01:25:04,280 --> 01:25:06,679 Speaker 4: Obviously his best part of his careers with the Ravens. Yeah, 1855 01:25:06,920 --> 01:25:09,439 Speaker 4: but thirteen hundred and four yards that was the most 1856 01:25:09,520 --> 01:25:11,479 Speaker 4: that he had, so he was his big year is 1857 01:25:11,520 --> 01:25:13,160 Speaker 4: two thousand and three, ran for two thousand and sixty 1858 01:25:13,160 --> 01:25:15,200 Speaker 4: six yards with the Ravens. Thirteen hundred and four with 1859 01:25:15,280 --> 01:25:17,080 Speaker 4: the Browns in two thousand and seven was the most 1860 01:25:17,120 --> 01:25:19,920 Speaker 4: he had since that two thousand and three season. I said, 1861 01:25:19,960 --> 01:25:24,800 Speaker 4: when you're looking at the body of wark here, you've 1862 01:25:24,880 --> 01:25:28,000 Speaker 4: got Jamal Lewis had the multiple thousand yard seasons. I 1863 01:25:28,000 --> 01:25:29,880 Speaker 4: don't know that there's anybody else that had multiple thousand 1864 01:25:29,920 --> 01:25:32,240 Speaker 4: yard seasons because Peyton hillis. 1865 01:25:32,040 --> 01:25:33,360 Speaker 5: Who I would probably Chubb. 1866 01:25:33,920 --> 01:25:36,080 Speaker 4: Other than Chubb Paynonillis, who had put on this team 1867 01:25:36,160 --> 01:25:37,840 Speaker 4: I think is a one year wonder. So you're like 1868 01:25:38,080 --> 01:25:40,720 Speaker 4: Peyton Hillis, you're getting real specific. You're saying twenty ten paint, 1869 01:25:40,920 --> 01:25:44,000 Speaker 4: just like Derek Anderson saying two thousand and seven Baker Mayfield. 1870 01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:47,639 Speaker 4: Are kind of saying the twenty and twenty Baker Mayfield, right, Like, Yeah, 1871 01:25:47,640 --> 01:25:50,439 Speaker 4: there's a couple, there's some that are very specific. Nick Chubb, 1872 01:25:50,520 --> 01:25:52,840 Speaker 4: this is a harder one to do. Got four years, 1873 01:25:53,120 --> 01:25:55,000 Speaker 4: Jamal Lewis would be kind of you know that two 1874 01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:59,120 Speaker 4: thousand and seven Jamal Lewis, twenty ten Peyton Hillis. Then 1875 01:26:00,200 --> 01:26:01,880 Speaker 4: I'll get here. I'm gonna throw out just the best 1876 01:26:01,960 --> 01:26:04,880 Speaker 4: seasons and kind of stretch. So Kareem hunts best year 1877 01:26:04,920 --> 01:26:09,360 Speaker 4: with the Browns is twenty twenty, and he goes in 1878 01:26:09,439 --> 01:26:12,519 Speaker 4: that season eleven hundred and forty five total yards and 1879 01:26:12,600 --> 01:26:18,760 Speaker 4: eleven touchdowns. Okay, the only other person there are only 1880 01:26:19,120 --> 01:26:20,840 Speaker 4: three other people that I think might even be in 1881 01:26:20,920 --> 01:26:24,559 Speaker 4: the conversation here, And I know you're gonna laugh at this. However, 1882 01:26:27,560 --> 01:26:29,920 Speaker 4: Duke Johnson had a stretch of four out of five 1883 01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:33,439 Speaker 4: years over eight hundred total yards. That's better than honestly 1884 01:26:33,439 --> 01:26:34,880 Speaker 4: anybody else on this list. I'm not saying you put 1885 01:26:34,960 --> 01:26:37,440 Speaker 4: him on there, but his best season was twenty and seventeen, 1886 01:26:37,960 --> 01:26:39,800 Speaker 4: and that year he had one thousand and forty one 1887 01:26:39,880 --> 01:26:42,519 Speaker 4: total yards and seven touchdowns, cut seventy four passes six 1888 01:26:42,600 --> 01:26:47,840 Speaker 4: hundred and ninety three yards. You've got Jerome Harrison and 1889 01:26:47,960 --> 01:26:51,439 Speaker 4: that would be the magical part of the end of 1890 01:26:51,520 --> 01:26:55,880 Speaker 4: the two thousand and nine season. And Jerome Harrison in 1891 01:26:55,960 --> 01:27:00,000 Speaker 4: that three game stretch rushes for basically six hundred yard 1892 01:27:00,040 --> 01:27:03,040 Speaker 4: yards and five touchdowns. Wild Yeah, he ran for two 1893 01:27:03,160 --> 01:27:05,519 Speaker 4: hundred and eighty plus yards against Kansas City in a game. 1894 01:27:06,120 --> 01:27:06,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1895 01:27:06,360 --> 01:27:07,960 Speaker 4: I think he still holds a record for the Browns 1896 01:27:07,960 --> 01:27:12,800 Speaker 4: for the most rushing yards in a single game. I 1897 01:27:12,840 --> 01:27:14,840 Speaker 4: don't know if that gets him onto this team. It's 1898 01:27:14,880 --> 01:27:16,360 Speaker 4: certainly the best three game stretch. 1899 01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:20,840 Speaker 2: Were those games important, No. 1900 01:27:21,040 --> 01:27:23,400 Speaker 4: But they were all wins on its season where they 1901 01:27:23,439 --> 01:27:27,080 Speaker 4: won five games. Most rushing yards in a game, I'm 1902 01:27:27,080 --> 01:27:27,599 Speaker 4: always worried. 1903 01:27:27,640 --> 01:27:29,720 Speaker 2: That's kind of my thing, Like people who put up 1904 01:27:29,840 --> 01:27:31,599 Speaker 2: can and it's not their fault, but they just put 1905 01:27:31,680 --> 01:27:33,559 Speaker 2: up stats where there isn't other options. 1906 01:27:34,240 --> 01:27:36,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, he still holds a record two hundred and eighty 1907 01:27:36,600 --> 01:27:39,880 Speaker 4: six yards Broke Jim Brown single game franchise running record 1908 01:27:40,040 --> 01:27:42,519 Speaker 4: December twenty, two thousand nine thirty four times for two 1909 01:27:42,640 --> 01:27:44,639 Speaker 4: hundred and eighty six yards and three touchdowns. Mean, it's 1910 01:27:44,680 --> 01:27:50,679 Speaker 4: just it's an unfathomable performance. In fact, I'm pretty sure 1911 01:27:50,720 --> 01:27:51,919 Speaker 4: it's the second most. 1912 01:27:54,120 --> 01:27:56,439 Speaker 5: In a game ever. Could that be right? 1913 01:27:56,760 --> 01:27:56,800 Speaker 7: This? 1914 01:27:56,880 --> 01:27:59,560 Speaker 2: Does somebody go for three hundred ap. 1915 01:27:59,439 --> 01:28:02,519 Speaker 4: Two hundred, two hundred ninety six November fourth, two thousand 1916 01:28:02,560 --> 01:28:05,719 Speaker 4: and seven against the Chargers. Jamal Lewis two and ninety 1917 01:28:05,760 --> 01:28:08,519 Speaker 4: five against the Browns. Jerome Harrison two eighty six against 1918 01:28:08,520 --> 01:28:08,960 Speaker 4: the Chiefs. 1919 01:28:09,040 --> 01:28:10,960 Speaker 2: A crazy game, just kind of out of nowhere. 1920 01:28:11,479 --> 01:28:13,880 Speaker 4: And the most recent big one is twenty twenty four 1921 01:28:13,960 --> 01:28:17,080 Speaker 4: Saquon Barkley this year two fifty five against the Rams. Yeah, 1922 01:28:17,080 --> 01:28:20,040 Speaker 4: so it's a it's I mean, that is astounding to me. 1923 01:28:20,160 --> 01:28:22,680 Speaker 4: That is the third most rushing yards in a game. 1924 01:28:23,320 --> 01:28:24,040 Speaker 4: What was like? 1925 01:28:24,080 --> 01:28:27,680 Speaker 2: Who remembers that game? Like, it's just who knows. 1926 01:28:27,760 --> 01:28:30,800 Speaker 4: Here's what's wild about it is so ap Hall of 1927 01:28:30,840 --> 01:28:34,800 Speaker 4: Famer Jamal Lewis was incredibly good. The other people in 1928 01:28:34,880 --> 01:28:38,599 Speaker 4: the top ten of single game performances ever Corey Byllon, 1929 01:28:39,120 --> 01:28:42,679 Speaker 4: Walter Payton, O J. Simpson Shawn Alexander, Jamal, Charles Saquon, 1930 01:28:42,760 --> 01:28:46,360 Speaker 4: Barkie Barkley, DeMarco Murray, Jonathan Taylor, and then Jerome Harritt. 1931 01:28:46,439 --> 01:28:48,920 Speaker 5: Like, so he has the outliar of outliers. 1932 01:28:49,000 --> 01:28:51,080 Speaker 2: All right, So my vote here's Kareem Hunt. 1933 01:28:51,200 --> 01:28:52,720 Speaker 5: I thought that was my initial vote. 1934 01:28:52,800 --> 01:28:52,960 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1935 01:28:53,040 --> 01:28:56,320 Speaker 2: I just think the other thing with Kareem is he 1936 01:28:56,439 --> 01:28:59,240 Speaker 2: was in a job share with Nick. Yep. His personality 1937 01:28:59,320 --> 01:29:01,479 Speaker 2: is a ten out of ten, and in many ways 1938 01:29:01,520 --> 01:29:03,479 Speaker 2: he was kind of the heartbeat of the success we 1939 01:29:03,600 --> 01:29:05,479 Speaker 2: had in the teens in the early twenties. He was 1940 01:29:05,560 --> 01:29:07,360 Speaker 2: kind of the heartbeat of it.
