[Assistant] First of all, shout out to the Kool-Aid Mafia. We'll get to that before. Oh, I didn't even notice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But by the way, I was laid up all weekend.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was kinda, you know, didn't feel that well. And I look, I turn over the phone and everybody going crazy on Bull about what he said. First and foremost, it's a lot of y'all cats out here be out of pocket. That's right. If you talking about Bull, is Bull petty? Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every time you disagree with him, you can't just throw it all under one, Bull is a Bengals fan. That's not intellectually honest, to be truthful. If you want to debate him, hear what his merits are, and they bring what you bring to the table, but just don't dismiss it because you think he's a Bengals fan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I went back and looked at his comments, and let's get this straight. I should've. A lot of y'all cats took that way out of proportion. You didn't even listen to the context of what he said. He said he didn't want nobody to be hurt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everybody is going out there to play as hard as they can. I'm trying to hit you as hard as I can. I'm letting you know that from a player's perspective.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where was the same energy when James Harrison was knocking our players out? Joey Porter. Where was Joey Porter? Hey, you had a dude karate kick us on a, on a, AB kicked a dude in the face and y'all laughed and talked about it and you wave on your terrible tiles in our stadium. Listen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, well, you know, when you're in college, it's right down the street. It's like two streets. Three blocks. Man, listen, I got pulled over by a state trooper and this is just full disclosure. I always tell people, you either apologize now or you apologize later. So when I got it, I got an OVI coming out of college and at that time,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was just scheduled to start working at 92 through the fan and I was just sitting there thinking like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey man, I done, I done threw my whole career away, bro, and I ain't even started yet. Wow. So, after that point, and it was, I wasn't even doing nothing crazy, my buddy had came from downtown and we were celebrating and I said, I gotta go to sleep, uhm, because I was waking up at five in the morning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyway, they go to the bar to get drunk and they needed somebody to pick them up because they were just messed up. So I get up, I'm thinking I'm straight. I'm, I've been laying down for like four or five hours. I'm good. Four or five hours. So I go get them. I come back and my lights wasn't on all the way. Like they had the parking lights and then the state trooper pulled up and I'm gonna keep it real.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You thinking, like, oh my lord, what am I doing? What am I gonna get? So, and he was cool because he didn't apply in the car, he just told him to get out and I was maybe a block away from my house. Oh my gosh. A block. I had to park the car. And so it was crazy to me. So from that, you know, when you talk about learning from experiences,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll just be honest with you, I don't even, after that, I was like, nah, I'll never end my life again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think this means nothing. That's hard to say.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's because, now it does matter if you wanna, in the scheme of things, the big picture don't. Because Deshaun Watson,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's going to spread anyway. We talked about it today. We talked about it yesterday or the last week. He's going to spread the football around. He's not looking for specifically one person. And if you go back to look at the Houston Texans, they didn't have really


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, no really big name receivers. You know, they had, you know, Brandon Cooks in a couple of years where he's throwing the football. They had Hopkins for a couple of years, but you know, he's traditionally going to throw the ball to a lot of different people and this is an opportunity for people to step up. Uh, DPJ.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's capable. Uh, Elijah Moore is very capable. It just means to me that you got to get creative with Elijah Moore a little bit. You got to get him more touches. Now, cause there's no excuse cause Mario Cooper ain't here. David Njoka is supposed to be a guy who's thinking about a big game


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He knows he don't have his number one target. So in his mind, he's thinking, okay, I gotta be much more Chris. I gotta be on time with my stuff. I gotta make sure I got a clock going off. I don't give up a no necessary sack. So to me, I think it just motivates him a little more and I still think he has a big game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know where we tripped? We tripped bad. Almost two seasons. I forgot to say this. We didn't even mention the X Factor. Who's that? That's that Nick Chubb.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like what I want to see in the past game, one of the things that I haven't seen since about 2020,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What is, is the brown screen game. If you go back and watch that year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Browns screen game was prolific. There's a lot of runs and a lot of plays that Nick Chubb made with run after the catch because he has those linemen in front of him and he's a bowling ball and he has a speed to break it. If you go back and watch, just the other day I was rewatching the Pittsburgh Steelers versus the Browns trying to get ready for it. It was the playoff game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and in 2020, the play that really sealed it because Pittsburgh was coming back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was a screen pass to Nick Chubb that he took to the house for about 40 yards. And I just haven't seen the screen game in a long time. I think he could be a really big part of that. Uhm, especially if you, you got defensive ends that are getting upfield, like T.J. Watt that are aggressive. Uhm, those guys are gonna be trying to get upfield against, uh, Jed Wills and Dillon Jones.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so you gotta switch it up. If he's on the right side, I'm calling what I would do, fake a tunnel screen that way, cause he's on that side of the field and sneak the back out the other way on the opposite side of the field.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Make it so he has to do something. So, you know, to me, uhm, I think that'll be a big part of the game. And plus you can, you still in the lead on the run game as well. So I don't think it'd be that big of a deal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They had him on, he was a 90 on the game. I'd say he about an 88. Your second best receiver I would probably say is Elijah Moore. Uhm, just because of his speed rating. So I think Elijah Moore is maybe an 81. DPJ is probably at 79 or 80.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so overall the receiving corps, I would say the receiving corps is probably like a 74, 75 overall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Y'all might think I'm crazy for this because this is uncharacteristic of me, but I've always been jealous and petty on certain things, right? So, you know, back in the day when people used to give gym shoes, I used to make a note of it. I'm like, yeah, when I get older, I don't care who I marry, I'm buying all them gym shoes for what my mom did to me. She didn't let me have them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When I was watching games this week, for some reason in my mind, I kept counting how many quarterbacks were stolen for three.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I saw Daniel Jones put up threesome. I saw Baker put up threesome.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Takeaways. He's shown to be a ballhawk. He's shown to be a guy that can take the football away. We saw it in the preseason. Uhm, and I just think when you look at it, he's a guy that can make your nightmare just even worse than it could be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you look at what Grant Delpid is, you know, and Jim Swartz said he's the best he's ever seen Grant Delpid play.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and you bring Thornhill in, bringing that extra, uh, ability to take the football away, be around the line of scrimmage, and both of those guys are really interchangeable. You don't move, miss much when one guy's in coverage and one guy's down at the back, bottom of the, uh, at the top of the line of scrimmage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the great thing about it is your secondary is now whole. Now as good as they played before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Think about what they're gonna be when they get all those guys back. Now, they'll be able to stay in coverage a little longer, which is so scary, uh, because the defensive line is going to get home. And that's just, it's just a matter of time with that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a reason why people are so excited about the Browns defense. We just got done talking about the offense. We didn't take into account that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Cowboys, they had, the Jets had no chance. It was one of those things where it was just like you was watching a pro team versus a JV high school team. It was like, you're not gonna, you're not gonna move the ball. It was, and they knew it. Sala knew it. He was just like, we ain't got nothing for this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It changes what you talk about offense. You can just, you don't, you don't gotta score every play. You don't gotta throw the deep balls like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's just, it's such an advantage, especially in today's NFL, where defense is not known, it's not known for your defense. Game center for offense. But now, if you got a defense, and you got a secondary, and guys like, uh, what's his name? I can't even think, he was so good, dawg, gonna get good yesterday. Michael Parsons. Michael Parsons, yea. Well you got Michael Parsons, it's like bro.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They can move to Sarasota. I don't know, I don't like the Steelers. I want them to make bad decisions up and down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's funny. That's cra- that's crazy. I mean- Go ahead. I mean, I- I think it is- well-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you look at the game, they had five or six turnovers. So a lot of people, like, is able to go back to- But those count!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, a lot of people went back and nitpicked it because they were like, well,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are two best, like Miles Garrett is the best defensive, for me he's the best defensive end and, and now he's very close with Michael Parsons. Some would add, like, you know. The way he's playing this year, he's separating himself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now Nick Chubb, he's, I feel he's the best at his position, so obviously you gotta put him there. TJY is not the best at his position, so I can't put him higher than that. I actually think, I actually, as much as I love


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think- Dope it after last week. I think Dope might mess around and make all pro. I ain't gonna lie. When Jim Schwartz came out and said that's the best he's ever seen him play and he watched him at LSU.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like this system just fits him, like I think he's gonna be, he's gonna be a pro bowler this year to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Second, second, I think it's second and 22. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You think it's at the end of the game, bangles, you say, listen, give up seven yards and get it to third and 15 or 14. You're like, we're good with that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He drops a dime to Mark Andrews over the middle for 20. It was a great play. And I'm just like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First one. Very simple. I give you two options. You guys have sent me your answers. We're going to discuss what's more likely to happen on Monday Night Football against the Steelers. The first question. What is more likely to happen on Monday night? Deshaun Watson throws for more than 325 yards.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or fewer than 175. We had a split-split answer. G and Bull said over 325. J and Jason said under 175. Gee, you wanna start off and tell us why you went with the over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Next up, Zedarius Smith. We just talked about the Steelers offensive line being porous, allowing five sacks last week to the 49ers. So what's more likely to happen on Monday Night Football? One and a half or more sacks for Zedarius Smith? Or a goose egg? Bull, you're the only one though with a goose egg. So you can start first.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Next one up, this is a total look at the Browns offense against Pittsburgh. Is it more likely that the Browns offense will score four or more touchdowns?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got my headline, I had a Kenny Pickett pun at first, but once you guys sent it, I had to change it up. So my headline instead, Pittsburgh streak flames out, little play on Pittsburgh. They've won every game in Pittsburgh in the regular season since 2003. That ends as the Steelers offensive line gets torch, the Browns snap their skid in Pittsburgh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wait, Jay, we have breaking news. First breaking news on the TV version of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show. Greg Newsom has been ruled out against the Titans. Greg Newsom will not play against Tennessee. That's for Mary Kay Capp.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, this is a pick-a-side, stick with it, no ifs, ands, maybes. Put it where your chest, say it with your chest, and we got three questions for you guys today. The first has to do with the one and only Kareem Hunt. The question is simply, will Kareem Hunt have at least


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Three carries against the titans, a pretty split answer here. Earl, Jay, Bull, G, and Tyvis? Well they said yes while Jason and myself are on the no side of the fence. Jason, defend the right answer here and tell people why he will not have at least three carries.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I went over three on the touches, under three on the carries. We mentioned in the YouTube show prior that the ingredients for a big Deshaun Watson game are there. Perfect weather, a porous Tennessee secondary, and frankly with no Nick Chubb, it's gotta fall on his shoulders. So the question here is,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Will Deshaun Watson throw for 250 or more passing yards against the Titans? Once again, Jason's on the no side of the fence joined


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By Jay Crawford, the rest of us all believe he will.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course not. Question number three. This puts two players, two star players against each other. Will Miles Garrett record more sacks against the Titans than Derrick Henry scores more touchdowns on Sunday versus the Browns? I am the lone person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I said no because I think it's the same. And the question was more, I believe it's the same. I think they each record one, one touchdown for Henry, one sack for Garrett. So I couldn't go over, but that's the beauty of fence riders. You got to pick a side, you got to stick with it. And in this case, I think the Browns record a couple sacks. I think Miles has one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I will, uh, there's a classic movie. You guys may have heard of it, seen it, Saving Private Ryan, right? Saw it. So my headline for Monday's UCSS Times. You ready, Mike?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How about shaming Private Ryan? Brown's defense embarrasses Tannahill.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Browns win one for Chubb. Shout out to Anthony for the directorial work here. Putting the helmet and recreating the Saving Private Ryan movie poster. Except Browns edition. The Browns defense dominates. Browns get the dub on Sunday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's up guys? It is a lovely morning. We have a big show. We got big numbers already. We appreciate you guys. And before we get into today's topics, we do have to mention again,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we're gonna belittle this over the head. We're on TV tomorrow. We're gonna what? Let it go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, and that's why we need you guys who are watching on YouTube now. If you do live in the greater Cleveland area, please turn on your TVs to channel three tomorrow. We're going to post the whole segment on YouTube afterwards, but check us out on TV.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Trust us, and I'll explain why later. We need people to tune in, cause it's gonna make this part of the show, the YouTube version, infinitely better. Yeah. If the TV side goes well, trust me, I'll have to explain more details on that. I'm glad you said that. Have you guys been getting a lot of questions?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're 20 and 0 in home Monday night football games. Their last loss.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm pulling off the stat right now was 1991. I wasn't born yet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're 20 on the last 20 Monday Night Football home games.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gee, I got your stat by the way. What's his record was Pickett and Trubisky.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They beat the Bears and the Browns. And in 2022, I mean, they're not great teams. They beat the Indianapolis Colts.

[Assistant] Locked on. And with that, Aditi, thank you for saving us. How are you doing today, Aditi?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We gotta get to no fence riders here before we do that. I have to remind everybody that if you haven't already hit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How many questions? That surprises me. There are six questions and one unanimous answer. That is it. So, with that...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's get to it. The first question of No Fence Riders Ground Stealers Edition. Will Miles Garrett...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have more sacks than TJ Watt on Monday. Jay and Jason? They said no. The rest of the squad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tomorrow, by the way, little teaser for tomorrow, but we're gonna, we've talked a lot about Watt and Highsmith first, the Browns tackled. We're doing a deep dive statistically and I got some nuggets for you guys on why that's not the real matchup that the Steelers have to be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Focused on, it's the other way around. They have no chance to stop the Browns defense. I got some nuggets they're gonna blow your mind tomorrow. You're saying no chance. Based on the statistics and how week one went.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We keep talking about Watt and Highsmith. I love hearing those numbers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Back, back way, you flip it around, it favors the brown. Alright, question number two. Not unanimous.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Only one of us said yes to this question. Will Deshaun Watson throw for 275 plus against Pittsburgh? It was kind of where we started the show today. And G answered it earlier. G is the only one who expects him to eclipse at 275.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Real quick, we sat on Behind the Glass last night, we- we talked about Watson Breakout.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Earl and I both were in, in lockstep here. And Earl, I'm going to speak for you if that's cool, but the stats to us don't exactly matter for the Sean Watson to have his quote unquote breakout game. I think it's the confidence, it's the throws he makes. I personally.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Expect Nick Chubb to run the ball a lot this game, especially with Cam Hayward out. So he may not throw for 275, 300, just based on opportunities, but if he throws for 220.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Looks crisp, looks clean, looks confident. That's what I want. Overthrowing. Yeaah. I think to me, that says more about the Sean Watson and him coming back to that 2020 form than he's tasted before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we have our unanimous question next. This is the only unanimous answer of the six questions. Will the Browns defense hold the Steelers to fewer than 20 points?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When we're in unison, it usually means we're wrong. Hopefully we're right on this side. Well last week we all picked them to win and they won. That fence is packed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is not a yes or no, this is an either or. What number ends up being higher?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The amount of points the Browns score versus the Steelers are the total touches Nick Chugg gets in the game. Receptions, catches, all the above are points. We had a 4-3 split on the points side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Incorrect. Oh, Jason, huh? It is Jason. It is three of the four on the set and Earl and myself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Without Hayward playing, I think it's gonna be a low scoring game. I think Nick Chubb's gonna get a lot of carries. Like I'm talking 20 carries and 3-4 catches, and I think they score 23 points, he has 25 touches. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bull, how many teams do you think scored more than 23 points last week?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] More than 28? How many? Two. Six. There's that many? Wow. San Francisco, the Rams, Jacksonville, the Chargers, the Dolphins, the Packers, and the Cowboys. Yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Three or four catches. He was targeted seven times. The question is will he have at least five receptions versus the Steelers? Two people said yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Five people said no, Jay, you're the only one on set that went yes. Yeah. Even G went no on this one. Wow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, what's the next one? Real quick before we get to the next one. His target distribution in week one. Seven targets for Cooper and Moore. Seven each. Okay. Four to Chubb, three to Njoku, two to Peoples-Jones, Goodwin, and Harrison-Briant, one to David Bell, one to Jordan Akes. Oh, the Bell thing. So that's nine different receivers who had a target.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Will Kenny Pickett have more touchdowns than turnovers vs. the Browns? And Tyvis is the only one who went with touchdowns. The other five, six of us, believe he'll have more turnovers than touchdowns. Tyvis isn't here. So Jason or G, Jay, Bull, who wants to start on why you think it's more turnovers?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Highest grade of Browns player offensively or defensively according to PFF. We got to do one more fast rate real quick before we bring in our next guest. We mentioned it in the first hour. We will mention it again, but tomorrow at 1230 to one, UCSS is making its


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] WKYC debut, we're moving from YouTube to TV for the last half hour of the show. We made it big time fellas, and we are not forgetting about our YouTube people though. We are a YouTube show through and through to start. This is gonna help us improve the YouTube version down the road.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a chicken nugget. It is what it is. It is a chicken nugget, I know, but at a glance, it also looks like it's a hashbrown. And with that, let's welcome Brooke. Prior to the show, Brooke covers the Steelers for espn.com. She is their Pittsburgh beat writer and she was kind enough to join us last year. We had a blast with Brooke and did she freeze?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Brooke, we just came out of Cleveland here with a rain game last Sunday where Deshaun Watson and Joe Burrow both played below the level we'd expect and we'll say it's because of the rain. I see there's potential rain in the forecast in Pittsburgh on Monday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the big knock on Kenny Pickett coming out of college was he has tiny hands. So Joe Burrow and Deshaun Watson struggled with a wet football last week. Should we expect kind of the same with Kenny Pickett if the rain comes through on Monday night?

We got caught up with a few things behind the scenes and did not get to read them all. So I'm going to try reading a couple of those today on top of the ones.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That we have gotten in today, but yesterday from Mike H mentioned the Summit Street tailgate that we may have to check out full when we go down and do our tailgating.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, we announced it yesterday. You're coming out with me to the Muni lot for the Titans game. Professor Chaos says he bought two Kool-Aid mafia shirts from G. Uh, Rich.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shout out to Rich Holly from Euclid who lives out in Portland, Oregon now. He says, love being a Browns fan out of state. There's a big Browns, uh, Browns backer bar I go to every week out here. Josh Heisler said the last Browns win at Pittsburgh, Tim Couch was the quarterback.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nope. And last but not least from Jordan Wanner, this is not a statement game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is a should win game. Pound the rock, get the Sean some easy throws, play good defense, leave with a W, build confidence and respect over a season, not just in one week. Overstating this game, especially against the Steelers is a bad idea. I am not putting this in the should win column.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Into where we're going next. The Steelers obviously were, uh, destroyed. I don't know if there's a better way to put it. What happened against the 49ers on Sunday for Pittsburgh was a complete annihilation. Knowing the history of the Steelers, and gee I know you said this is a new season, history doesn't matter, but afraid maybe not the right word.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Were you concerned, afraid, the fact that Pittsburgh just got their absolute butt whooped and as Aditi and Brooks said, Mike Tomlin's best was back against the wall. Does that factor?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Give you any second thought about how you feel about this game on Monday night.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I did some digging. You were close. You almost had it right.

[Assistant] Maybe gives a little kudos to the Steelers and what could happen on Monday night. Just based on the historical value of how teams are coming off the situation. 57%. That's astounding. This one is very in favor of the Browns. Last season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every team that played the 49ers lost their following game. Teams were 0-16 the week after playing San Francisco. Wow. I remember that. That is an incredible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Browns are looking to become the 17th straight team. I guess the Steelers would be the 17th straight team to then lose if the Browns win. So teams, the week after playing San Francisco, part of the reason for that potentially


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I just see this stat, I'll do a little more digging on it.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What happens if Deshaun Watson throws for a bunch of yards against the Chiefs? Don't matter. I don't think that'll matter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I believe the Cleveland Browns have been the offseason story.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's not every, there's not every flavor in here. You know why? What is this? Red? Oh, just colors, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Red. What does that one say? That's cherry limeade. First was black cherry. What is this? Blue. Red. You think they're all gonna taste the same? Tropical punch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He knows what to do. You look like you drank some Kool-Aid once upon a time. Yeah. Multiple cups of sugar. I don't know what that- We have some creature flying around in here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I said Joey Woods was trash like two days afterwards. He was out of here. I've been telling you that. Well, you know where I stood on Baker, right? We get that. And I'm even the one who said Odell Beckham Jr., but we get a big, another big contract.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We don't even need Dobbs. We know he's smart. Let's get some pics for him. Cause we got D, T, R. He's the talk of the town. Every major league. They're like, man, it's DTR guy. Even the great Aaron Rodgers at the Hall of Fame game. Hold on. Let me just put the headset on. Yeah, that kid, I know him. He was in high school. I used to see him DTR. Yeah. Hey man, slide down DTR. Slide. Slide. Don't take that hit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That what he does is he still puts out content. He's like, don't forget I can shoot. Don't forget, we just saw it yesterday. But DTR right now, all jumps aside, can play the game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He came in, he was able to move the offense, he plays kinda like Deshaun Watson, he came in and did his thing, and Andrew Barry, if Earl was able to see it,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If we talk about as we speak right now, the number one quarterback people are talking about in the league is who? D. C.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it would be so ironic because the Browns haven't been able to get a quarterback in ever. And they've wasted capital after capital after capital. And I've always said it, and I'll stand on it till I'm done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To certain people, people always say that this preseason stuff don't count, you don't count, that don't count. Listen, I be telling people all the time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's the way you think about it. Everything you do is an opportunity to show and prove what you can do. At one point in time, I can't say pre-season don't count because I was doing, I was doing YouTube videos in the ether.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just doing YouTube videos. If somebody called me and was like, Hey, you want to be on a show? I was like, you're lying. You're not going to, but if I wasn't doing those shows, if I wouldn't have been doing YouTube, where would I be today?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it matters to the team, not to us. It shouldn't matter to us. I think it matters to me because I think if you see a guy who can play, right, and the only way you can get


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All depends on what your basketball IQ is. He said he's stupid. No, basketball wise.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, they played well in the preseason, getting the games in the regular season, usually they don't even have an opportunity. Usually they play well and they sit behind somebody to be third or fourth string. So it's not like they're being groomed to take snaps.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. So, so if I look at DTR and I say, okay, well, I'm going to take something away from him because this is competition. But we also have to take it in consideration that how would he look?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you did give him two weeks of preparation, if you did tailor the game plan around him, and you did put him with guys like Nick Chubb and Amari Cooper and guys that can play.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even that, I don't feel. I mean, anything, at least in four games, you can say, can we squeeze out a two and two record? Can we just run the ball? Can the defense?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me ask you this though, Boo, cause you're of the school of thought thinking that like, quarterbacks are the most important guys on the field, right? Right. And if your quarterback goes down, it's a wrap.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My question is to, to you, why is it, like, in, in, in baseball, like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You need multiple guys coming out the pen that can get out. If the quarterback position is so, like so tough to play and it's so important.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why don't people put a bigger emphasis on their backup quarterback? Why would you not draft like a backup quarterback? Or why wouldn't you say we need to allocate a large sum of money or just to have the best because there's a thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, but, but even if you can't get a top 12 quarterback to be your backup, why isn't there a market for like, like guys, guys like a Jameis Winston?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, now listen, I don't want this to happen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Please don't do it. This is something that I see in my crystal ball. Don't give him a package.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A better path to playing time. I was just gonna ask, who has a better path to playing? Like, Amadi Baser. DTR, like, if we don't even want him to have a package, like, he's gonna be on ice the whole year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the worst thing that can happen. No, I don't think it'd ever be bad if somebody's great. What are we doing with that two-thirds?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's, he's, and he's, I don't see the difference. It's him and D'Anthony Bell. D'Anthony Bell plays special teams. I liked him last year. They got McLeod. He's probably bad, like you said, battling for the fourth safety position.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He don't have, I wouldn't say he don't have the elite measurables, like he's not extremely fast, he's not extremely big. He's a bullhawk. He has a nose for the food, he reminds me of a poor man's honey badger. Like. Damn. Honey badger was like a Heisman trophy candidate in college. That's why I said poor man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, I didn't say JV, man. I mean, he's a homeless, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll take it. No, I don't. No, I don't, man. I just, you know, it's incognito. I can't believe Johnny Manziel went with a nose and glasses and a fake mustache.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they're not, look, if you got a certain demographic that you picked, like here's the thing, that's like Alabama being like, you know what? We got Gene Smith on next week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What about, where, where did uh, Jackson Smith and Jibba go? He went either five or six. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like in American Idol, you could be even with somebody the whole season. You could sing great songs the first season. The first few challenges, you could be great. Yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But if you pick the bad song and you're in the finals, you're going home. So you think he could lose his job still? Well, well no, he's done enough where he's like- The other guys? He's in the finals, like he's made the finals, right? He made it here. The other guys?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They, like, Schwartz would have to overkill it. He'd have to sing a Whitney Houston song and slay it as a man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's general manager of the Browns? He's medium size. He's not tall. He's not fast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he's a receiver. I just described that offensive lineman.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anthony Schwartz scared me more than, like, he can cost you a game more than the kicker can.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think they gon- I heard Kevin Stefanski, they said- they sound like they was just trying to save him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They were saving him because they didn't want him to get injured and they think that he's just their guy back there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I think uhm, he's the special teams dude and I think Demetri Felton gets cut now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, they pay them, get them some, get some money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is Ford ready to go week one? He should be. I'm okay without him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And if he don't, he gets chugged extra carries. Elijah Moore. And the guy they brought in. Wilkins. He's better than Felton.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is he? I just, when I was looking at him running inside his own place, I'm like, oh, he looks like a red, he looks like an NFL runner. What about Kelly? Gone. Gone, yea, he's...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think, I think he's a bubble, he can, if he can, he's playing against right, like if he can play in this game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If they mess around and get him another interception or he could do something. He gotta make some plays in this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, even if he could play special teams and make his special teams play. Yeaah. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And a position that they're kind of banged up still. You don't know the health of Taki Taki. You don't... Anthony Walker, I think he'll be coming back, but I think what he brings is skill set. The difference between him and Anthony Fields is, is, is night and day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] J.O.K., like they're both extremely fast, they're both extremely like athletic, like they can read and react, like they run around, I think that's why they're intrigued by it, because, you know, to be honest with you,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tic King run down, running quarterbacks. You look, Aaron Rodgers can run, Herbert is mobile.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, Josh Allen, he runs the ball, he's there running back, and we already know about Lamar Jackson, and Joe Burrow can, you know, basically, you know, extend play. So in the AFC, you need somebody in them linebacker positions to run, sideline to sideline, uhm, after Miles Garren and those guys. There, Smith chases him around a little bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But yeaah, uhm, I think that J.O.K. runs like him, but I think he's much bigger, I think he has more upside because he just has more of a traditional vibe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's huge. Why'd he go undrafted? Do we know? It's hard to make the league.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On a bubble, I would say right now on a bubble and Jessica's special teams. Yeaah. I'm going out on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's outta here. I've seen enough of Jordan Elliott. Uh, I think, let's see, anybody else?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he's their only backup tackle with experience. I mean, he has bad experiences. That's true. Not, not unfair. I would keep the one, I would keep the one Jones and make him my swing tackle. Nick Harris can play guard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or, Nick Harris, he, he, he possibly can get something for him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And at least you usually have your nickel, like a nickel linebacker or a nickel corner that you don't know too much about. Right, right, no. Or it's a tight end battle because you don't really use tight ends. It's just basically, at


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'ma say this, we ain't talked about this all preseason.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, we have not talked about Kevin Stefanski in the play calling.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Showing all your stuff. Like, what you talking about? Oh, we don't want to show anybody anything. What are you talking about? That's like saying somebody who got outfits. If you got gear.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you got multiple jeans, multiple shirts, Jordans. Your closet is crazy. There's no such thing as wasting an outfit. That's why Mariah Carey walks around in high heels.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I got plays, you think Andy Reid is trying to save anything? There's no such thing as saving. That's like if you say, hey, save this best episode of UCSS. No, we're going to come do a show tomorrow and it's going to be just as good as the last one. No one cares about saving anything. So what I want to see him do


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Come out here and run some stuff, get some people open, score some touchdowns, and don't worry about somebody checking and stealing. That's dumb.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Give me some stuff. Give me some plays. Let me see. Just like that play on the goal line. That was stupid. Why would you not run something on that goal line play and get a touchdown? You run Kelly to the side. Get out of here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's not true. It's not true. The three guys is not starting on the, I give you four, I give you five teams that are not starting over. He's not starting for any, matter of fact, not starting over the kid in Michigan. That's one. He's not starting in Georgia. He's not starting in Clemson. He is not starting in Alabama.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was ugly. It was the worst spring game, Marv. And then of course, the talking point is, well, Justin Fields, Justin Fields was better in eighth grade than every one of the quarterbacks they got right now. Let's just be clear.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They had, they had, they had C.J. Stroud. The quarterbacks that they got are not better than C.J. Stroud. And last year, you lost to Georgia. Right. So that guy's lost.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, no. I'm interested. We don't listen. We've already seen it. I've seen this episode one too many times. I do not want to start that. The last thing I need is DTR throwing any sort of touchdown passes and crunch time getting any more clout to start a decision making process. Let me ask you a question. No. Let me ask you a question.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If he gets to be where I think he can be at, I think they can transform. I think this is going to be...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm more, I'm almost more excited to see the defense play than I am the offense. And I can't say that a lot for the cleaver. I've never said that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, you know, looking back, the way the Cleveland Browns played, just the way that they constituted their defense, I've just never liked it. I didn't like it under Petman. I didn't like Greg Williams. I didn't like, it just seemed like gimmicky. It just seemed like all this stuff where, you know, you got your safeties playing deep. And then last year with Joe Woods, it's like, bro, listen, forget your system. I know everybody has a system.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this is your problem. You run across this in regular everyday life. You get one manager who says, I've been doing it this way forever and you guys are going to do it this way, right? And then you get another manager that come in and look at it. They take this survey, lay it in the land and say, okay, well, what resources we got? Um, what's the personnel?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they come up with what's best for that group of people in the field. And everybody plays better. Everybody likes coming to work. Last year they didn't like coming to work. They didn't like it. Like I didn't like watching them. And I know if I didn't like watching them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They didn't like being out there. So that's why you have. Denzel Ward has missed a lot of time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Play through aches, pains, bumps, and bruises if one...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They enjoy what they're doing. Two, they believe that you, that they're playing to their strengths. And three, they're winning football games. And so Denzel Ward has not been put in those positions and they haven't won. So I can see why his hamstring hurts some days or I can't push past this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He has an opportunity to put the Browns on a different level because just as good as they are up front, they got, they got pieces in the back end that I think can really


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Be like one of the best secondaries too. And if you can marry, if you can marry both the front and the back end, you, you got a chance in this league to be a top, top defense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ooh, three different keeps. I'ma keep Tyreek Hill because I just think his speed is just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can't, you can't coach it and I got, now I can just throw it up. I want that throw it up ability. I'm gonna trade, I'm gonna trade, uh, I'm gonna trade Chase because I can get ones for him. I feel like I'm gonna get like a couple ones for him. I want a one and a two from Jamar Chase. And I'm gonna cut that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 23. 23. You're gonna get at least two for Devontae. And then Devontae Adams, I'm gonna cut him. I think he is probably the best route runner in the game. His releases off the line of scrimmage is clinic tape. Uhm, but he's a little older and he does not have the...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Speed is the other two guys. Like, I could, you know, you can let him get 8 catches for 105, and he not gonna kill you in a touchdown ride.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I'm keeping Netflix, it's a staple. Uhm, I like a bunch of other documentaries on there. I would trade Disney Plus because I think Disney Plus has a little more upside. It got all the Marvel and stuff. I can get more back from Disney Plus. That's right. You can rip off some kids. Yeaah, oh yeaah, oh yeaah, definitely. I can put my kid in front of it, little niece, yeaah. But Hulu...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That little swag? He did see them shoes. I was like, listen, I will be on the internet afterwards.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you spray them with repellent? Nah. Come on you guys, get your repellent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You never tie your shoes, bull. You don't tie your shoes, your laces never touch each other. No, no, when you play basketball you do. But if you're a hooper, you know like, when you get your joints to wear outside of there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did you not hear his joke? Oh, I didn't hear it. My shoe's a Bible shoe? Your feet is as wide as a Bible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm going, I'm going Game of Thrones. I'ma keep that Lord of the Rings. I'm trading in a fourth wing. I don't know what the hell the fourth wing is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you're in a relationship, there's no way you're allowed to be like, you like that picture. That's a breakable defense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like if, like if on your timeline you're scrolling through, and there's a girl, or there's a bikini, or there's any of that, and you like it, and then you're like, you like that picture. Who would do that if you were in a relationship? Oh lord, listen, at one point in time?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you like a picture or Instagram of a hot girl, you're a loser. Yes. These guys have no clue. Mike agrees with me! No. Yea, that's, that's horrible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we said, I like those, or we did not like them thumbs down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At least we're telling you in real life. If you hit it on a computer screen, that don't even count. I'm never gonna meet that person. I don't even know that person is real. It could be an AI character.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, this was actually easy. Yeah. Keep kiddo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, trade, uh, Andrew's cut, uh, in joku. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't understand. Oh, that's disgusting. Nasty, nasty work. I'm keeping Russell Wilson. Anthony, you're evil for this one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, nah, I can't, I don't know, I can't take car over Wilson. Give me, I'm gonna keep Wilson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I'ma trade car and Tana Hill get cut. He stinks. The Tana Hill Express is outta here. It's over. Yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Iron Man is a genius, he's a billionaire, his tech is crazy. But he's a wild card, he might do something bad. So, but he's, uhm, I'm trading him. So you're cutting America?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Captain America is like Roger Clemens. All he does is take some steroids. That's it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's just a strong, strong country white guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is, you guys, come on man, you talking to the fast food king here. First and foremost,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you give me back the old Wendy's Dollar Menu,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're outta here. Junior Bacon Cheeseburger Deluxe. They jun- you put a poll up. Junior Bacon Cheeseburger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wendy's is a keep if you give me that old school, the spicy chicken sandwich is crazy. Now let's get to McDonald's. No one ever has raved about McDonald's burgers. Nobody. It's the fries. It's the fries. If you get somebody with hypertension,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the, with the, with the, with the McDonald's fries? You're outta here. There's nothing that beats McDonald's fries and McDonald's coffee. You can't touch it. There's a staple. So I will trade them. Taco Bell. Taco Bell. You, you, you fell off bro. Let me tell you why you fell off Taco Bell. You guys don't never have nothing ready to go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I said, can I get a gordita? We don't got those anymore. You'll have that for two weeks. Let me get that, uh, that doggy chalupa. The brown chalupa. Nope, we only had that for three days. Okay, well let me get a strawberry skittle slushy. Sir, we only serve that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sir, we only had that for the summer. It's still the summer. No, school starting is not the summer. These are real things that I'm going through. These are not schemes. These are real.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Come on, Taco Bell. And plus, y'all don't got a, y'all don't got a, uh, a menu. Your, your pizzas, your, your, your value menu, you got your, your, your taco bur- burritos, the 99 cent joints. Your dollar menu is not a dollar. That's, that's like family- False advertising. That's like- Got the best breakfast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'mma go with, uh, Curd. I like his open offense a little more. If I was a defensive guy, I'd go with Spolster. I'mma trade Spolster, I can get something for him. I would unfortunately have to get rid of Tai Lui because...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I am keeping- This take is sponsored by Lemon Lime Kool-Aid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think, I think Duann Jones goes start. I'm keeping Duann Jones. Duann Jones, um, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I gotta keep, like, Imani Bass is gonna end up playing. Like, I trade him. He's gonna play. Uhm, and I'm cutting DTR.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This man, this man, he just set us aside, bro. He just set us aside. Matter of fact, when we come in during the season, I think I'm gonna prepare some Kool-Aid. I'm gonna get it back there, and I'm gonna get some sugar, and I'm gonna put the Kool-Aid out here. Yeah, that's good. I'm gonna make it, and we're on the set. Has anybody touched? There you go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, he's not old. He's got 10 more years, at least. Now, like this? No, he's not affordable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Could you, could they, now, now with the angels, trade that line over, right? Yeah, you can't, you can't be trading. Awww. He's gonna be afraid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's do a little keep cut trade. We had it just a second ago. You gotta pick one or the other, keep cut or trade them. You got Jamar Chase. We had Devontae Adams and Tyreek Hill. Which one would you keep? Which one would you cut? Which one would you trade?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We was talking about it, uh, me and Tyves and Bull were talking about it the other day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and we was just going down like position group by position group.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we just talked about how closely the rosters are compared with the Bengals and the Browns. Obviously, you know, the quarterback position is a question mark for us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and the Bengals have, you know, solidified, you know, that position. When you look at, uh, in time has brought up the secondary as a position where there's new guys rotating in and out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, do you think that is, uhm, uh, I wouldn't even say a question mark for you guys, but, you know, is that an area where, you know, the bangles are trying to find some new guys and how do you think that plays out in terms of the roster for roster, position group by position group thing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What is the, uh, what is the win variance for, you would say for, for the Browns? Uhm, you know, what is the, the highest you, you can envision them and wins or losses and what is the lowest, you, you kind of the floor, uhm, for Browns in, in this division?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He had number 18 on, I didn't know quite who that was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You have to know the truth and you have to try to understand the circumstances, but we've stayed away from that particular situation. Oh, this was a while ago. That's a year and a half ago. That's when they went to get to Sean Watson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And to the GM of the year, of the century, and all he did is draft player after player after Hall of Famer after Hall of Famer, and then he retires as a Raven, and then we sitting here, we can't even find a quarterback. We, we, we whiffed on all them picks, and then finally. So that's not trash talk, that's just rivalry stuff. And then finally, finally you get to a point where now you feel you have a quarterback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We watched Joe Flacco beat the breaks off all of us, right? Because Flacco had just as much of a winning record against the Browns as Ben Roethlisberger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you guys know so crazy about this, there's a lot of storylines, like you got Genevieve E. Clowney coming back, you got Odell Beckham Jr. coming back, maybe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, they was born in the 90s. I think for us, if the Browns come out and they win this football game and they win it like the way that they've been playing, especially defensively, it's gonna have people on steroids. You know how cocky people gonna be going into a bye week? So all you gonna hear for a whole week


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He got this old amp. Mr. Microphone. And he was, and he was HOT!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, they had nobody on. I don't understand how they got to a Super Bowl. I mean, Chandler was the quarterback. Well, Denver won it. Oh, they smoked him, and it was bad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we never heard from Buchanan after that. Cause wasn't he like a safety or a corner?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well listen, here, I, you know, I got a, I got a split feeling on the dog pound. When you look at it, uhm, and these dudes, Jay could tell you,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right, just facts. Like they had, Cass was working Midnights. And he's like, back then it was just different. Them seats was four.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They the common people. They was down. So that was their only time to say, we up now. The Browns don't got the best stadium. The Browns don't have the best uniforms.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But you know what? We work hard and when you come here, we gonna make it hard for you too. And that's what trends, that's what resonated with me so much. I listen, I watch so many Browns games during the summer just being on YouTube.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think winning plays a part in it too. Now it doesn't mean that you can't get back there, but I really would love to see Cleveland have a great home field advantage because guess what? Playoff games over a progressive? Magical.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Absolutely. Magical. Playoff games over at the Rocket Mortgage. Them games is loud. This is one of the loudest places out in the NBA. And I just want to see the NBA get, or the NFL get to that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you have to say Pittsburgh, and I hate that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I used to hate the old Houston Astrodome. When the Browns wanted to play the Oilers, they just always seemed to not play as well. I'm like, I don't like this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, uhm, I don't think it's, to me it's not so much of the guarding yards and the yardage. I think it's about the attempts and trying to establish it. I think it's important that during the game, if you saw the flow that the Browns had last week,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it'll, it'll make it easier for Deshaun Watson to ease into the game plan that they want to do. Like we said, I think they are using, uh, Elijah Moore as a, in the short throws to him as an extinction of the run game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Two touchdowns last week. He didn't have the production yardage, but two touchdowns called the ball out of the backfield. He had almost 100 yards against the Steelers. Uhm, I think, you know, if you can get, I don't know if Kareem Hunt is going to be up to speed like he was. I knew he'd probably be a little banged up. We expected that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're right, you just don't show up and go play in the NFL game. That don't happen. Uhm, but no, I think it's the attempts and uhm, keeping it, you know, manageable. It's easy for everybody to say that, but trust me, like, I still don't believe that any quarterback


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can't get back there and throw it 50 times consistently. It's just too much bad stuff that can go down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're doing a good job of, of just moving and change, like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, a lot of what football is, and I know it's kind of simplified, but it's third downs. It's, hey, it's third and four. They can run anything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One thing that gets you playing more free is the fact that, alright, on offense, I don't necessarily have to go to a specific person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They don't know where I'm going. I can spread around anywhere I want. And on top of that, defensively, I know I got a stellar defense. So now I know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what, we're just gonna play uh, we're just gonna play ball control here a little bit. We're gonna try to move these chains and understand that Miles Garrett and the rest of them zoos is causing problems on the other end of the field.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nobody's worried about that. Yeah. Yeah, I have to kind of, I don't, I take things all and I kind of dismantle them. First of all, people forget.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, he talked about not even wanting to be in a cold weather city, remember? Right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So they talked about, so he wanted to play. All the other teams was Atlanta and New Orleans and Miami. Dome teams are hot teams.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And had this, this situation where there was nobody at quarterback. He came in and it was a huge personality at quarterback that was still here. And people still was like, no, we could, we could roll with the other guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So he was not beloved. He was not, it wasn't like he had too many people embracing him. And then you throw all the other national stuff on it. It was almost like, all right, well the stuff got so loud.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think that last week, he just said, listen man, I ain't, I ain't trying to fit in no more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay. See for me, I don't, listen, I don't care nothing about it. You know why I don't care nothing about it? Live your life. Like, you know, you got one life to live. You, like, to me,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know Deshaun Watson is gonna put the work in behind the scenes cause the way he talks about the game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's why I think, to my point, what I was saying earlier is, he just said screw it. I'ma just be myself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I'ma be myself and that make you uncomfortable, then that's on you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm, I could only do what I could do, and, and I'm seeing him play freer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He ain't trying to do it like, like I saw Clemson Deshaun Watson right there. Because, like, the celebration exuberance, the excitement, and sometimes when you lose something like a Nick Chubb or you lose it,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You say, okay, well I gotta be the energy for the team. I gotta have that energy. Cause they coulda came out there and got smoked.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That showed me he had a little, he's getting back to being the old guy that says it don't matter what's happening.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think this is facts. I think, I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He may not, he may not show up. He wasn't coming to those things. Even when they were courting him, they were texting each other. So David Clowney wasn't really receptive or texting back. He was just basically a loner. Gee, when you played in college.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The fun, the thing that, that I, I love the most is that Darius Smith had 10 sacks last year. He was the man on his defensive line. Right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He doesn't have any sex this year, but when you watch the tape.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's been close 10, 12 times and you can tell when somebody be close and be like, oh man, I'm mad cause I ain't getting it. He's always.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shouting at his other people. He's always clapping it up, always putting it written. See, that, that, that makes the whole defensive line want to go after people. And Clowney was standoffish, and some people will call him a mercenary of some sort, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] County has never, he's never really found a home like that. He had T. J. J. Watt. You're right about that. J. J. Watt. It was like, okay, he went to Tennessee, right? And they played on a great defensive line.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And to me, I don't think you can have an all-time great defense if you do have mercenaries. It's too hard to play defense in the NFL, especially with the rules dictated towards the offense. If you want an all-time great defense,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You gotta actually like the people you hang with. You gotta actually, you gotta actually, like even in the back end, you notice, you notice Greg Newsom is all the way bought in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you go out and play what's valuable to, what's valuable to us, we'll see.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I personally had no expectations for that. So what happened was, this is the funny thing. What happened was, they found out


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna ask you about, uh, you talked about the quarterback Deshaun Watson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And uhm, it's the first time I've seen, it was big for me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After he throws that touchdown pass to Marty Cooper, you see Kevin Stefanski and he runs up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Coulda celebrated with anybody, coulda celebrated with all the guys on the sideline, but he chose to go up and chest bump.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kevin Stefanski. To me that was big because I looked at Kevin Stefanski's face and it looked like the first time he was emotionally invested in a quarterback. And he was genuinely excited, like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I agree with that. Because the pitcher has everything to do with it. College football, that's almost to me. NBA? College football, that's worth 14 points almost.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And especially when you got the crowd, the crowds are just, like in basketball, crowds go crazy, they get the calls, it seems, your role players disappear in NBA.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You almost can't even count on the role players on the road.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, and, and I think this, you know, when you, you go back, you mentioned, you started talking about the Browns and, and, you know, the Ravens. It's one of those games where I think,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It makes people look at the Browns a little bit different, especially if the defense plays against the Lamar Jackson. It's like, oh, okay, the Browns might be somebody. And with that, speaking of Browns,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And traditionally throughout the AFC North, the Browns have been


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, Jeff, one of the guys that, that we have not mentioned, uh, or any of the skilled guys, uh, for the, for the Baltimore Ravens, uh, you know, Odell Beckham Jr. is, uh, you know, he's been out, he hasn't practiced much.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and a guy, uh, guy like Mark Andrews.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so, you have a better quarterback, you have a better chance of winning. This is an opportunity where you say Deshaun Watson looks at it and it's the first, I'm excited about this because we finally get to see Deshaun Watson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Versus Lamar Jackson head to head, and which style works, which style is going to work better, and finally you can say, alright, well now it's a toss up because we've been on the short end of the stick when it comes to quarterbacks for years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm like you man. I'm not ready for this. To me, this is why I always be preaching. Like sports is about going after every year. I know you gotta have some down years and I know every year can't be your year to win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Knowing he did not have the backing to go out and at least try to go out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So what you're saying is left fielder more than our three outfielders. Center fielder. No, no, no, no, no, they're not all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We've all looked at the guardians as the most stable. You've been able to do that because you had Tito at the top of your, at the dugout steps. Now, you're counting on the front office and a question mark on the bench to figure out where this organization goes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very good. By the way, real quick, you referenced the guardians there. They, uh, will officially probably be eliminated today. Yeaah, the magic number for the twins is one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I disagree with that. I understand where you're coming from. I disagree with that. And people have told me you guys have both said, ah, don't look at your mentions, don't do this. But I don't, I have to do that because I have a lot of fans that ask me questions and say nice things. I want to respond to those people. But here's the thing, I know you want to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, that's fine. I don't think he's doing that to look, I think it's a way to communicate with his fans, but I get what you're saying. I mean, there is really no better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With, with, uh, obviously Kareem Hunts had his off the field issues. Sure. But we, Browns already know his deal. Like, there's a reason, the return in the trade is the lowest possible return you could have gotten in a trade.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If Jerome Ford plays really well, then he'll continue to be the lead guy, but if he, you know, if the running game is not looking great,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well then, I think at some point we're gonna see a split between the two. Listen, I was as critical of Kareem Hunt as anyone last year. But he's not a zero.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Almost the entire time he's been there, except for when he was with Kareem Hunt that first year. So like, if that's what, you gave up all this capital and money because Deshaun Watson's supposed to be a quarterback that is above all these other things. He hasn't been. If he's not, they can't win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Weren't you screaming for DeAndre Hopkins? Yes, I was a free agent. I didn't have to give up multiple draft picks to get him and sign him to a multi-year deal worth millions of dollars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You don't know that it won't until you try it. You don't know. I agree with you. How is Jonathan Taylor going to resurrect the Browns? I agree with you. Really? Did Nick Chubb resurrect the Browns? We had a chance with Nick Chubb. We all sat here and said the Browns have a chance with Nick Chubb. But Nick Chubb, are you saying that Jonathan Taylor can resurrect Watson? Is that your point? I'm saying that he can make


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're going to have to throw the ball to win. A. They weren't one dimensional because they ran the ball very well with the drum court. They did. B. Well. Yes, that's a fact. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If Deshaun Watson plays the way he's played, which is, you could argue he's been the worst quarterback in football since starting last year. Yeaah. I mean that's, he's certainly in the bottom five of quarterback since he started last year. If he continues to play at that level.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I personally, I just don't think he's any good. I don't think, I don't think the Titans can ultimately win at the highest level, right? They failed in the playoff. They're well coached. Eric Henry's great, but he's getting old. I, if I'm a Titans fan, I feel like I'm spinning my wheels here. They've been a solid team, but I feel like they're kind of stuck in the middle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It made it so we were talking about Traylon Burks versus George Pickens of the Steelers. Obviously Burks was drafted higher than Pickens and Pickens has been more productive to this point in their careers. But I was making the point that like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, everybody else here felt like, oh, it's obvious that Pickens is better. My argument was, well, the Steelers throw the ball a lot more than the Titans do. And Berks is the number one receiver on Tennessee. Tennessee doesn't have any other receivers, so the top defender's gonna guard him for the last two years. Whereas Pickens, outside of last week, has had Deontay Johnson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and even Pat Fryermuth to take the pressure off him a little bit. How good do you think Traylon Burks is and can he become the receiver they envisioned him being when they drafted him in the first round?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very motivated. We'll see how it translates on the field. But right now this win one for chub thing seems like a big deal in the Browns locker.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, every player, Grant Delpit interrupted in the middle of his press conferences like, hey, I want to talk about Nick Chubb for a minute. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And like, every player is saying this, so like, again, they could go out and get blown out this Sunday, it won't matter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the way, on this topic, I just saw this quote Deshaun Watson is speaking right now. He just said... Why was he moved from yesterday, by the way?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He said the biggest issue through two games has been he's not been on the same page with everyone. Line, receivers, coaches. There's a clip, can we play a clip from the press conference or no, Mike?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna DM it to you right now. But, uh, that's not great.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, he's the, he is the biggest reason they lost. He is the reason that they lost.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'd like to see what his number is going back to his week 11 last year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, that's two games. Is it not a fact that Baker has turned the ball over as much if not more than any quarterback in football since he came into the league? I'm guessing because you're asking that yes, but I don't care.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We gave him six games last year. He sucked in all of those games. Like how much longer did, this whole off season I heard from all the Browns apologists, it's going to be different. I agree with you. He's going to be great. You know, they got the full off season. You said that you thought he was going to be great. Exactly. To be fair. I did think he'd be great.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I say he's got half a season to prove the turnaround, but in the end, they have to pay him forever. However, there's going to come a point, like if he sucks this whole season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If he sucks this whole year, you have, even though you'd have to play him again, you fired Stefanski and give another coach a chance to turn him around, but you'd have to, at least in somewhere in Andrew Berry's mind, or if he gets fired, whoever takes over, start thinking about, okay, who could be the next guy? That's exactly it. You have to start thinking about it, even if you can't actually do it. What's the exit strategy?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they felt like they had to upgrade from Baker. They felt like they had to upgrade from him. But Stefanski didn't. I don't believe that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why would his actual daughter not take over and JW?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And find an anomaly with a quarterback making the playoffs one time, right? Sure. The Bills made the playoffs with Tyrod Taylor. The Texans made the playoffs with TJ Yates. We can go on and on. There's always these examples. And by the way, as much as I don't think Baker's the answer, I never said Baker was terrible. Never said he was terrible. He didn't. He's Jed Wills. He's average. No, I don't think he's even average. Don't go there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think the question is in that vein, and I agree, I think we all agree, this is an easy opportunity for this week. When does it, I feel like Jay has already reached a point where you're like, it's never gonna happen. I feel like you've reached there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's right. So the question is, the question is, when does it come to the point, like, I'm not at the point yet where I'm saying, oh, there's no chance he's going to turn it around. I will admit that after the Pittsburgh game, it was the first time I really thought, man, this might not happen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This might not happen. How many more games do you think you have to go for you guys before you're like, it's over. There's no way he's turning it around.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I looked at it as rushing yards. I just think the Titans just, you know, the differential going back to last year between them against the pass and run is pretty stark. And I think they're going to be looking, whether he can handle it or not, to Deshaun Watson to put the team on his back this week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'd give four, I was about to say, I was going to say 420, Kareem 5.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's as fresh as he can be at week three.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Any other team in the league that could say that? I would say if he, if he has three throws or three touchdowns and they're all to tight ends and running backs, that's fine. I want to connect to a wide receiver. So I think we're going to need that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gee boy, she's stealing your Kool-Aid. How many, like, I think the Browns will score three touchdowns in this game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's not a crazy amount. No, it's not. No, it's not. Okay? The, the Browns, the Titans like, they run the ball. First, I don't think this game's gonna get one-sided. Now at the end, if the Browns end up being up big, then I'm gonna be wrong. But my guess is the game's gonna be relatively close. It will be. And if it's close, what do the Titans do? They run the ball!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you still agree with that? I still agree with it, yeaah. Because... You think balls gonna disagree with themself?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, if he misunderstood the question, we would certainly allow him to change his answer. No, right, right, no. No, at the time I knew, yes, I'm sorry, my bad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's gonna go both ways. Yeaah, yeaah, yeaah. I mean, I think the, I think Watson will throw, but I think, you know, I think we tend, when one week a quarterback gets sacked a ton, we tend to overreact and think that's gonna happen every week. I mean, did he get sacked by the Bengals at all?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As a pun returner, he sucks, I'm with you there. As a wide receiver, his career is an overachievement.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it's 4-2. So what's funny is... But look at points off turnovers. No, no, no, but what I'm, my point was, what's funny is, if the Browns didn't have the fourth fumble, when D'Shawn fumbled... They win the game. They win the game and they would have lost the turnover in both games and won. To do that...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sean Watson fumbled twice last week, didn't he? Did he fumble twice?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, they missed, obviously, the worst miss was the face mask. Yeah, it was a miss.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's stupid that you wouldn't call it that situation. Like there was that Hail Mary with the, was it the Cardinals in week one?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Be wider. Joe Bittonio apparently said the same thing today, that there's a communication issue. Why? I know that's a big problem. You're right. That's a big problem. Why? We're into the season here. We're three weeks in. What's happening?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or at least be more involved? No, I don't. I mean obviously David Bell and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] DPJ, I mean DPJ, say what you want. He's proven he's a serviceable NFL receiver and David Bell must be impressing them more in practice because he's getting the, the, the, the opportunities that Tillman's not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After having a whole camp and preseason where they didn't lose anybody. They came in completely healthy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know how much of an upgrade he is at this point but, and I don't know if he's even ready to play so it might not be worth talking about but,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bengals cut Lyle Collins, who was a really good tackle at one point with Dallas. He played last year, he got hurt right at the end of the season. He was, he struggled early last season and he was starting to play much better second half of the year and then he got hurt. Now I don't know that he's completely ready.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, because he wasn't on the team. They cut him after week one and he wasn't on the active roster. But, uh, I mean, at some point they might need to look elsewhere. I don't think they're right there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We understand that he's a project, right? And as you said, he's in there, he's expected to do certain things. There's parts of his game, on the mental side maybe, that he's not as far advanced. But he didn't do a terrible job.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the way, you know who's gonna start for Carolina this week if he can't play Bryce Young. The Red Rifle. Andy Dalton. Oh, Andy Dalton.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whenever he started, he did not play well. So I, to me, they should be able to dominate him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can I say that, you guys are doing a great job on Behind the Glass, but I've got a suggestion. Please. That you should add to Behind the Glass, and I'm being serious.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You guys should, as part, not just talk about sports, because in the normal show, which you guys are a part of, we're talking about all this stuff anyway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What team is the guy on currently? Do you guys want the answer?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, who, which team acquired the player? The titan acquired the player.

[Assistant] G and I went out for dinner last year with Bernie and Leroy Hoard, a few other guys, and I remember Bernie was talking to us about how he killed the Oilers. Inside information.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I knew, and I knew because the other day...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We've never done that before. And there were people apologizing for every other quarterback too. And I criticized those people also. No, no apologies. And I criticized this. There's no defense for Deshaun Watson. He can't give up completely after eight games in my opinion. But to defend him and how he's played is inexcusable. There is no defense. He's played like crap. You're right, Jeff. There's no defense.

[Assistant] Do your past secrets haunt you? Do you wish to tell them but something holds you back?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A little hasty with that gun kit. What is it you plan on doing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You'll... protect me?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you know what's so great about this, McNuggets? You know, you say something about other people saying it's a YouTube thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, we, we encourage you to, uh, just understand that we were the forefathers of this thing and continue to support us as so, as other people flood into the market because this is to try to replicate what we've done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even with Pat McAfee, like the format of having a panel of people or multiple people, that's something that I don't think has been done. That's true. Anyway. Thank you to you guys. Thanks to all the fans that helped us get this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I, you know, I get all kinds of alerts and different things all the time. And so, uh, this alert came from, um, you know, a news publication. And anytime somebody mentions the Cleveland Browns, you know, it's set to show me the article. So, this one is from fansided.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, by a guy named Mark Powell, and this came out yesterday, and it says in the headline, Cleveland Brown's latest Deshaun Watson decision is absolutely classless.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, the Cleveland Browns elevated Deshaun Watson to team captain, which is an awful look given the history of his sexual assault allegations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, when they acquired Watson via the trade, the Browns, uh, made it clear that the talent, um, far exceeded the risk that came with the allegations against him. Yes, we are a country of second chances, but Watson's financial slap on the wrist for dozens of heinous allegations doesn't really qualify as punishment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just, you know, I bring this up because, you know, there's going to be a lot of reaching. Like, you know, the Cleveland Browns are starting the season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's almost telegraphed. It's almost already a thing written in stone that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When, when you talk about it, and Kevin Stefanski has quotes, and he has quotes in there from Kevin Stefanski. He quotes Kevin Stefanski and saying why it is that he has, you know, has done this. Deshaun is very, very natural for him to lead, Stefanski said. And I think he's comfortable leading from out front.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think he's comfortable from leading and letting his teammates get credit. That's just something he's always done in his whole life. It's just the way he's integrated himself into the football team and it is impressive to watch. So,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Obviously, Deshaun Watson is a leader, and this is a team vote. The team voted on this. It wasn't, it's a group of his peers. So naturally, with that being said, if your peers vote you, how is it that Cleveland Browns are, are in trouble with it? I think it's just one guy. It's his teammate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It is a random though, but there was some, there was just that undertow to it, right? Uhm, we talked about Deshaun Watson not getting much credit, uhm, and he's not gonna be winning any awards anytime soon because there are people who believe really crazy stuff like this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How is this crazy outrageous and heinous? Like, captains happen, you know, there's been people who are generals, who are guys who may have sullied reputations, but they're still generals, they're still leading other people in their craft and that happens to be on the field of football.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, Nick Chubb, his personality and demeanor doesn't jump up and scream.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm a captain. That's not, that's not who he is. Like, he's a very introspective guy. He leads by example more. He does not do interviews. You don't hear him saying very much. Uhm, the fact that when you're, you are the quarterback and you are in Cleveland, and I think this is, this is huge for everybody to understand. Deshaun Watson is, is on face value a top five quarterback. Skill set talent wise?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There has never been a person with that level of talent. And with that level of talent is going to come a level of scrutiny.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He, you know, he takes, Josh Allen takes all the questions. If they got a problem with Stefan Diggs and Josh, guess what Josh Allen has to do? He has to, he has to manipulate that and work it out. So right now you want your quarterback doing that because you don't want other people having to answer for a quarterback and they are the most important person on the field.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not necessarily, but it's just, it's just showing that there's an emphasis on special teams and that you, you, you put a importance level on it by, by putting a captain. What do you think? I don't give a rat's ass, honestly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So hold on, so lemme, we gotta get this together, so, cause there's a, there's another thing that happened last night with these, these blackouts. I didn't know that Spectrum had blacked out Utah, Florida. I was so pissed. But do you know, do you- Are you a Spectrum? No, I, I got, did you know DirecTV blacked out


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Minnesota versus uhm, I believe it was Iowa? On what channel? It was on Fox.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Talking about, well, it's gonna affect the Bengals, the Browns, Ohio State, and it says we, they're working it out, and trying to figure, because they raised the rates, and our contract was up in August, early, late July, and I'm like, look bro,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can't, I can't watch, I'm gonna try to watch this Minnesota game and that didn't really matter. I'm like, okay, I'm gonna see some Big Ten and it was in 4K. I'm gonna watch it. But I said, Browns. I said, bro, shout out to DirecTV. If y'all don't get that squared away, I'm switching. We switching immediately.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the only reason I was messing with y'all is because y'all got ballies. So... Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, no, he say, listen, he was adamant about that Kool-Aid. He was like, no, not on my set. Bull is spilling everywhere. Me?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, Mary Kay, what, you know, what are the guys that, uh, we, we wanted to make the team was Austin Watkins Jr.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He ended up being able to be back and added on the practice squad. And I think one of the reasons they, that he didn't make the initial 53 man roster was the great news that Marquise Goodwin


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What is the update on him and do you believe that he is trending towards possibly even playing against the Bengals or is it going to be something down the line?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know if they've, they've done a, uhm, they've done a good job of smoke screening this thing with the, the, the fourth defensive, uh, Tom Lyman. We know that, uh, Dalvin Thomas is gonna play and start. We know that, uh, we got Zedaria Smith and obviously Miles Garrett.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's like kind of up in the air that when it got Shelby Harris, Jordan Elliott, you know, fought off people during the, during the preseason and made this roster. Um, Maurice Hurst, you know, is now in the active roster.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Out of those guys, who do you think is gonna be in that starting rotation, uhm, come, uh, the first nap against the Bengals?
