00:00hey what's up there hello boys what's going on i'm just looking at the uh top player in
00:05the nfl right now according to the nfl top 100 did los angeles make you do it or no
00:11what was the deal did they like did she was that a surprise press conference
00:17no i believe she was on the schedule for the day okay
00:23listen i can't ripped for it i i well the the the sweater was ripped so
00:30you guys want to explain what you're talking about go ahead daryl explain no go right ahead
00:34andy yeah it's all you she had a press conference yesterday and she was wearing a t-shirt was it
00:37a
00:37t-shirt or a sweater who's she a sweatshirt that'd be your assistant general manager katherine hickman
00:42yes and like the team's getting crushed nationally i'm just like and i just like okay like i probably
00:51was just an do you think it was an innocent thing i i don't know but daryl you tell me
00:55you're there
00:55every day do you think she was just happened to be wearing a t-shirt that said that and showed
00:58up
00:59for a press conference i can't speak to her wardrobe selection andy i actually thought
01:04she wore what she wore it is what it is the the sweatshirt said what the sweatshirt said and it
01:11was in the condition that it was in i i don't know what to tell you i i don't know
01:16if she was like
01:16to me when i first saw it i was like oh this must not have been a planned thing and
01:21that they must
01:21decide at the last minute somebody must have requested her to talk to you know how much gear
01:26is in that building someone could have thrown her something what i thought daryl like hey put on
01:32this jacket yeah like i mean come on now what are we doing here it is is uh well i
01:42i'm just gonna
01:43leave it at that because i i really don't need to deal with any phone call it's a nice long
01:46weekend
01:47for me and i really don't need to deal with any phone calls from the organization well it's not but
01:50i'm just i'm just making i mean it's like i don't to me i'm telling you when i saw the
01:55pictures
01:55online i was like they must have had i my first thought was she just happened to be out on
02:00the
02:00field and somebody had requested her to speak and they said well we'll have her talk to the whole
02:04media that's why that's not how that went now okay i think we'll hear from glenn cook on monday
02:09okay i wonder who made him do it then anyway what'd you think of the 53 man roster when it
02:16came out
02:16i haven't talked to you since last thursday night so no surprises big shrug big nothing burger
02:24and there's your browns coverage from your browns beat reporter daryl writer there were there were
02:28no surprises there i mean luke flory wasn't going to make the team um a little bit of a surprise
02:33you were hinging at the end you thought maybe there might be a spot for him on the roster
02:38on the practice squad okay that's good enough yeah but that's not where he ended up so so does that
02:46happen because he can't contribute enough on special teams that's yes to me that's the whole
02:50reason why somebody wouldn't make that that's 100 what it came down to 100 what it came down to guy
02:56you know versatility is important when you're one of the back end roster guys and you know and even
03:03the practice squad guys so um i still would have liked to see him bring him back on onto the
03:09practice
03:09squad but still also doesn't it doesn't mean it can't happen either yeah katherine hickman said that
03:14yesterday they could always bring him back so um i guess he was hanging out of kent state yesterday i
03:19thought i saw something about that fingers crossed for him daryl you know you root for every kid that
03:25wants to keep the dream alive and he played really well so good for him and yeah let's hope he
03:29gets a
03:29chance somehow you know i gotta tell you after the third preseason game todd's energy for him even though
03:36he wasn't keeping him on the team and they he probably knew that going into there you could tell they
03:41weren't keeping him by yeah by the way todd was answering the questions right i mean but there
03:46was still something to be said todd could have easily just been like yeah well third preseason
03:50game but he wasn't i mean he was genuinely excited for him um and i don't know that's that but
03:56that's
03:56todd like todd even said it about the quarterbacks that right he doesn't care what the fans think
04:02like to me i i think these are things he's gonna need them as the season goes on that are
04:07enduring
04:08him to the fans i think fans like the way he's honest and i think will never be accused of
04:13being
04:13a team that does much for their fans come on now because they don't they don't win they don't play
04:20the players that the fans want to see right i mean and you can't listen to your fans either it
04:26when it
04:26comes to roster decisions i would think uh you know luke floria would have been the number one jersey
04:32jersey sale in lake county without a doubt if they would have whether he was on the practice squad or
04:38on the water squad they would have been selling his jersey i thought for sure you were going to say
04:42a bit in number one selling jersey in the team shop and then i was about to say yeah i
04:46think
04:46shador sanders would like a little word on that and lake and i think in lake county luke uh luke
04:51i think
04:51in lake county shador sanders still might be the most popular browns jersey
04:57yeah you're probably right i'll give it to you dylan gabriel uh being hurt that was really the
05:04the surprise so do you remember him getting hurt in the game because i was sitting next to you and
05:07i was like well isn't this uh kind of a twist i didn't realize that injury was in there i
05:13mean
05:14and they were able to get him an mri immediately after the game i'm just like do you know how
05:20hard
05:20it is to get an mri you got to go through physical therapy oh wait i'm sorry i was thinking
05:24about
05:24regular people but andy the game was thursday night roster cut down was sunday i'm pretty sure
05:29they got him an mri in between there oh i think it was the first day but mris are expensive
05:34and they
05:35and they uh they get the results immediately that's why i always laugh um when coaches are asked about
05:42injuries and severity injuries and they're like i don't know i haven't gotten the medical update yet
05:46we haven't gotten the test results yet that's a load of you know what because and if you watch
05:51hard knocks this season they uh the seahawks had a player blow out his acl and they knew it
05:56immediately i mean the coach was told immediately up uh blown acl that's that's that so they know
06:04these things rather uh quickly when it comes to the actual test results so i don't want to accuse
06:10coaches and gms of lying when it comes to uh medical test results but they lie when it comes to
06:16the
06:16medical test results they get that information almost immediately daryl is the quinchon judkins
06:22mike hall dust up history uh i i mean they don't hopefully they don't have to hit each other anymore
06:30good and uh i can't i can't speak for what might may or may not happen in the locker room
06:36jeff but
06:37on the practice field um i i think that uh things have uh calmed down and look i think mike
06:44hall handled
06:44it well yesterday and you can tell he was really coached up on that answer because um you know that
06:50got circled back a couple of times and he he gave the same answer so you could tell he was
06:56really
06:56coached up on what to say in response to quinchon blowing him up and then you know however they
07:04decided to settle things behind the scenes between them yes answer me this one would you think we see
07:12more of mike hall at defensive tackle this year or at defensive end defensive tackle okay that's what
07:18i would assume but it was fun to watch him out on the end wasn't it yeah well they'll they'll
07:22throw
07:22him i think that they'll move him around a little bit potentially but like i i don't see defensive end
07:28as a full-time job for him uh and i don't think the browns do either i mean todd munkin
07:33said the other
07:33day he really feels like mike hall uh generates a greater impact more inside than outside that's not to say
07:40that he can't go work outside but i i think that the focus is going to be keeping him at
07:45defensive
07:46tackle i don't think that they're going to try and convert him to a defensive end i'm going to ask
07:50you a minutia question here i'm just teeing you up for this okay my friend and because i think i
07:55know
07:55todd munkin brought this up in one of the press conferences after a preseason game why does the
08:00nfl still use still photo snapshots rather than video like they use video in college but you can't use
08:08it in the pros i i don't want to hear it cost too much i really don't like i i
08:13they they can figure
08:14out a way to pay for everything and you're going to tell me that they can't like one of the
08:18reasons
08:19that tradition and logistics is one of the reasons they don't do it but there were concerns over
08:23mounting logistical costs and technical glitches come on they're doing a game in australia you're
08:31worried about if you're ever going to have technical glitches uh that would be i don't be my bigger
08:35concern i i just i don't understand that they got tablets on the sideline listen you're lucky they
08:40don't i you're you're old enough and i'm old enough to remember when they used to print those off
08:44on the sideline yeah and they you know fumble through uh the pages or whatever uh yeah i don't
08:51know why they just don't uh allow teams to use uh the in-game video maybe uh or having all
08:5822 down
08:58on the field like i well i mean maybe that's just also a way to kind of keep things as
09:02competitive
09:03as possible too right you know instead you know instead of breaking down game film while the game
09:10is going on you can look at the pictures of the formations and and really that's about it um i
09:16you
09:16know uh because you know that would give somebody a significant competitive advantage if if they were
09:23actually using game film but this is also a league that got rid of the chang gang and and does
09:28virtual
09:29measurements which now take three and four times longer to do than actually bringing the chains
09:34why do you think that's taking so long to get these i mean i to be honest with you i
09:38didn't
09:38the technology just didn't bother me but baseball can do it super quick i i i miss the drama of
09:44it all
09:44they're all here they go they're pulling the chain setting it down is you got to pull out the
09:47is you got to pull out the card to slide it in between see if it's a first down i
09:51miss those days i
09:52miss the old-fashioned chang gang going out there it just it was uh uh always a dramatic moment and
09:59now you're just like sitting around and the jeopardy theme is playing in your head six times
10:02before they finally tell you if it's a first down or not and you have and you have to take
10:07their word
10:07for it too like if if you're a coach on the sideline or whatever like i don't think you get
10:12to see the
10:13virtual measurement at least when you pulled the actual chains everybody saw the measurement everyone
10:17saw whether or not was a first down or not right uh now it's just you take your the word
10:22for it
10:22the official just announces up virtual measurement says it's the first down or virtual measurements
10:26says it's short and um so yeah the nfl is kind of funny when it comes to to certain things
10:34they'll
10:34do virtual measurements but uh no all 22s uh on the sideline just pictures so i i and i i
10:41honestly i
10:41didn't realize the colleges until i uh saw an article about it i didn't realize the colleges were doing
10:47in-game uh video on their sidelines so um i don't know maybe the nfl needs to get a little
10:53hit with
10:54the times but i still think though that would give uh i i think we'd have more blowouts in the
11:00nfl because
11:01uh you you get some coaches that would really turn that into a massive competitive advantage
11:06daryl let me i've been listening to todd closely on this when the announcement first came out in
11:14between the cuss words jeff we have our finger on the dump button it's okay by the way that's my
11:21new favorite thing to do when i'm editing todd munkin video is to perfectly edit and silence out
11:27his cuss words i have got i've gotten the lip reading down so i can just i can just scrub
11:34the
11:35video slowly and see where he's starting it and then i see where the last syllable ends it's it's it's
11:41fun stuff i would say post game he's averaging at least three a post game yeah that's yeah that
11:46sounds about right i i'm i'm not trying to interpret or anything and i'm not trying to look for anything
11:52but when when he announced that deshaun was the starting quarterback he said he was followed up
11:58with and he said no it's not week to week since then we've been hearing a lot of who gives
12:03us the
12:03best chance to win week one in jacksonville okay it sounds to me like you're trying to read
12:09something into that jeffrey no i what i'm wondering is actually i guess i am um yeah guilty
12:16as charged has he has he backed off on the not week to week do you think or no okay
12:22no i i just think
12:23that yeah yeah you have your messaging i don't think it's week to week i i honestly think the clock
12:30starts after week four okay because that yeah that's that's when they have to make a assuming that
12:35dylan recovers from this back injury that he has wink wink nudge nudge uh that uh once he does and
12:42he becomes available uh then you have to make a right you know you have roster decision to make
12:46do you keep all four quarterbacks do you try and trade somebody you know do you leave him on ir
12:51like
12:51you know did the back injury get worse while he was on ir like these are decisions they're gonna have
12:56to make and i i feel like um for all the folks who are like well this is a two
13:00-game audition for
13:01deshaun with the two road games and if it goes horrifically bad then they pivot to shador sanders
13:06for the home opener against carolina on the 27th because you don't want a hostile environment and
13:13fans booing during your home opener whatever right but then remember you got a short week after that
13:17pittsburgh on thursday night yeah so i don't know that that's the best environment to throw shador
13:23into the fire there um i kind of feel like week five right now you get the longer week i
13:29feel like
13:29after the stealer game would be the perfect window to make a quarterback change so um i i kind of
13:36feel
13:36like it's more more so a week five decision going into week five type of decision because of the dylan
13:44gabriel roster situation uh in ir and then also to your you're through that uh short week and then you
13:52i
13:52think play the rest uh you know everything else uh sunday at one in whatever respective time zone
13:57that they're playing in but if the sean's playing okay there's no decision to make at all is there
14:01right hence hence why i said the four week thing because you know let's let's say he let's see what
14:06he's doing yeah let's say he does play average for two games right you know they maybe they win one
14:11lose one or uh they lose them both but he was average and not the only reason they lost those
14:17games or
14:18whatever you know uh i think it has to be just absolute brutality in the first two games for
14:26them to pull a trigger and make a change for week three i i i that that's just where i'm
14:32at with it
14:32i know a lot of folks want to talk themselves into this is a a one or a two week
14:37tryout for
14:37deshaun i i really feel like it's until dylan gabriel is healthy and available to come off injured
14:44reserve um i'll just ask you meaning dylan would be the backup then well i don't know okay well i
14:51mean i mean i'm guessing shadour would be the net you know being the number two he becomes the starter
14:57then yeah dylan becomes your backup and taylor green moves up basically stays where he's at which
15:02is quarterback three and then they've got and they got to get taylor ready to play at some point
15:06anyway because we all know how this movie is going to play out and deshaun's inactive yeah okay or
15:12i don't know you know god forbid he got he gets hurt or something right you know pulls a hamstring
15:19yeah you don't want to see anybody get hurt yeah no you don't but i'm just saying like there are
15:23ways to manipulate your roster and and and uh you know and make it work you know what i'm saying
15:29yep
15:29got it and and he gets paid so um but yeah you you gave him a chance he won the
15:34job you give him a
15:35couple of weeks see what he can do uh if he looks good you stick with him if he doesn't
15:40look good
15:41you you give uh you give the kid the chance i you don't think there's any way any one of
15:48those
15:48three quarterbacks could slip through to the practice squad no no way no no i and i think that
15:55if the there was they would have done that already i i just i taylor green was not getting through
16:01waivers gotcha i don't know about dylan but again he's hurt right got the back injury right
16:05nudge so he's on injured reserve so you know no one's gonna claim a guy that's hurt as always
16:10thank you we appreciate you look forward to your coverage of the browns here over the next couple
16:14days online and of course uh with the podcast as well thank you daryl we'll have a uh defensive
16:18season preview coming your way a little later today for uh for the brownies look for that on
