Speaker 18 Hey, I'm Lindsay.

Speaker 19 Hydrodonitis superativa, HS, caused bumps and abscesses that made me feel embarrassed. I talked to my dermatologist and started a treatment that works for me, Cosentix.
I found relief.

Speaker 20 Cosentix Secukinumab is prescribed for adults with moderate to severe hydridinitis superativa, HS. Don't use if allergic to COSENTIX.
Get checked for TB before starting.

Speaker 20 Increased risk of infections and lowered ability to fight them may occur, like TB or other serious bacterial, fungal, or viral infections. Some were fatal.

Speaker 20 Tell your doctor if you have an infection or symptoms, like fevers, sweats, chills, muscle aches, or cough, had a vaccine or planned to, or if IBD symptoms develop or worsen.

Speaker 22 So please subscribe, or you're going to make Ocho cry.

Speaker 22 The biggest news of the day, Ocho. The Browns have released their death card.
Doe Flacco. I told you.
I told you. QB1.

Speaker 22 Kenny Pickett.

Speaker 22 Two. Dylan Gabriel.
Three. Shadur Sanders, five.
Excuse me, four.

Speaker 22 But they did bring in because two of the four quarterbacks are injured. Hamstring, Kenny Pickett, and Dylan Gabriel.
And a few hours ago, This is what Adam Schefter tweeted.

Speaker 22 The Browns are signing Tyler Snoop Huntley, who spent part of last season with Cleveland. With Kenny Pickett, Dylan Gabriel nursing hamstring injuries, and Shadura Sanders having a sore shoulder.

Speaker 22 The Browns need another arm. Enter Huntley.

Speaker 22 Yes, sir. Talk to me.

Speaker 22 What are the Browns? I don't know what they're doing. We don't know what they've done the last 35 quarters.
Do they know?

Speaker 22 Are we sure they know what they're doing?

Speaker 22 Have they known what they've done since that franchise has been established? Have they figured it out yet?

Speaker 22 Because the last good quarterback, no disrespect to the quarterbacks that have played for the Cleveland Brown, the last one that has been of decency has been Bernie Cozar, if I'm not mistaken.

Speaker 22 Yeah, that's in mid-Agent.

Speaker 22 There you go. There you go.
That's no disrespect to any of the quarterbacks that have played there, but it is what it is. We talk about consistency.

Speaker 22 Have we had one for a decade that we've been able to lean on and build around? You had a couple of years, you got a couple of years of Baker, but outside of that, no.

Speaker 22 No disrespect. Come on, man.

Speaker 22 Come on, man.

Speaker 22 So how do we? That's the problem that you have, O Chan.

Speaker 22 How are we supposed to trust this organization when it comes to choosing quarterbacks at the position when they haven't figured it out all these years?

Speaker 22 All of a sudden, now they got all the motherfuckers. Excuse me.
Now they got all the sense. They're supposed to have all the sense now.

Speaker 22 The death chart to me,

Speaker 22 I'm going to let you go. The death chart to me doesn't mean anything.
We know what Jack Joe Flacco will do when the lights come on.

Speaker 22 Kenny Pickett had this opportunity when he was drafted to the Steelers. So we've seen a sample size that already.
I mean, no disrespect to him. He's not the answer.

Speaker 22 Dylan Gabriel had success at Oregon when the lights come on, but it's a different ball game in the NFL with them grown men that got mouths to feed.

Speaker 22 Everyone should get an ample chance to win their starting position. We already know who quarterback money is going to be.
We know who that's going to be. The depth chart doesn't mean anything.

Speaker 22 What they're trying to do is they're trying to break young bull. They're trying to break him, huh? That's all it is.

Speaker 22 From the draft process, the getting drafted in the fifth round to the owner coming out and saying what you said last week to now. Man, come on with that bullshit, man.

Speaker 22 I don't see how Kenny Pickett still remains number two. He hadn't practiced since the 26th of July, if I'm not mistaken.
So he's been dealing with a hamstring injury. But

Speaker 22 when you go out and sign somebody in free agency, I mean, I guess that does tell you they do think highly of him because they signed him.

Speaker 22 Dylan Gabriel, he's dealing with a hamstring.

Speaker 22 I guess the worst thing that happened is that we could have found out because

Speaker 22 had both of those guys been injured, we head into the first preseason game and only Flacco and Shador is healthy. Now, it remains to see, to be seen how much Joe Flacco is going to play.

Speaker 22 If he plays, I'm thinking maybe a series, Ocho. That's top.
Let's be generous and say a series.

Speaker 22 Now that was going to be Shadura's opportunity to basically take us home.

Speaker 22 we saw trey lance tray lance started the game and played what deep into the fourth quarter hell he might have finished the game with that being said uh

Speaker 22 the worst thing that could possibly happen happen for the browns is that the two quarterbacks that you're probably counting on they both got hurt most definitely and they got hurt early now we'll see how soon um it remains to be seen i think i said uh last night they played thursday they played thursday or friday is it friday

Speaker 22 okay okay they play friday they play friday

Speaker 22 three more days

Speaker 22 i'm excited

Speaker 22 is shadur gonna play yes he doesn't have a choice this is part of his recommendation but if it showed but but what but what if he had i mean wait i mean clearly they don't feel that confident because if they thought shadour was going to be able to go would they have brought a fifth quarterback in yeah

Speaker 22 they had to bring it they had to bring somebody else in because kenny pickett's probably not going to play especially with with a Hampshire injury. The game is fighting.
I don't think either one.

Speaker 22 I don't think two and three.

Speaker 22 So, definitely, definitely, he's going to play.

Speaker 22 Listen,

Speaker 22 the eye in the sky doesn't lie, and they need Shador to put what he can on tape. They need to, what are we going to get? What did we draft?

Speaker 22 All the work we put in, obviously, going against offense and defense in practice. That don't mean nothing.

Speaker 22 Well, you don't expect to get Ocho. How long do you expect the $500 call to last?

Speaker 22 Think about where they drafted him now. Now, clearly, they ain't putting a whole lot of resources behind it.
No.

Speaker 22 So they're not, let's, let's, you know what, Ocho, you know what we do here on Nightcap.

Speaker 22 Talk to me now.

Speaker 22 Chat, you know, when you go by what we used to call, when I was growing up, we call it secondhand.

Speaker 22 When you go buy something secondhand and you spend $500 or you spend $1,000 and as is, no warranty.

Speaker 22 You're not expecting, okay, hopefully they get me from point A to point B. They drafted drafted Shadur in the fifth round.
They're not expecting much of Shadur.

Speaker 22 They didn't, because if they thought that much of him, they'd have drafted him higher. If they thought that much of him, they would have given him a fair opportunity.
But that's not what they've done.

Speaker 22 And I'm not, look, that's their organization. They run it how they see fit.

Speaker 22 But...

Speaker 22 I don't know and people in Cleveland, I don't know how you would still have trust in this organization, considering how many quarterbacks and every quarterback they say oh he's franchised he's franchised you said that with derrick anderson and you said that after before him and you said that after him

Speaker 22 baker got injured and you moved on from him now baker didn't have the the the weapons that he has in tampa uh i don't think baker's like oh my god hang on wish i could have stayed in cleveland the weather's a lot licer in tampa and there's no state income tax and he has a great support system around him

Speaker 22 with all that being said

Speaker 22 i would think

Speaker 22 I don't think it's much to like, boy,

Speaker 22 maybe they bet against him. Listen, it happens all the time.

Speaker 22 I don't want to if I'm, if Shadur, how does that make me look? If Shadur looks well, oh Joe. Wait, he gonna, he, oh, excuse me, the adversity and the obstacles that young bull has had to over

Speaker 22 endure in general. He's been, he's been, he's been prepped for this.

Speaker 22 He's been prepped for this.

Speaker 22 Oh, they're against me since he got drafted when he dropped in the fifth round he already knew what time it was when your opportunity gets there when you get your opportunity you have no choice but to shine

Speaker 22 you have no choice they're betting against him not to do well

Speaker 22 right

Speaker 22 but if you want me to win the race oh joe you got to put me on a fairbread like everybody else you can't give me a klysdale and say go win this race

Speaker 22 Let me ask you this. When he is in the game, is he going to get the first team offensive line?

Speaker 22 Uh-oh. Because that's what, when they want to, when they want to give you a serious look, Ojo, you and I both played this game for a long period of time.

Speaker 22 When they want to give guy, when they want to give a receiver a serious look, they let him run with the ones. They don't continuously see what he can do with the twos and threes.

Speaker 22 They give him a fair opportunity with the ones. The number one quarterback, the number one offensive line, and the other one receivers on the opposite side of him.

Speaker 22 Quarterbacks, when they are running backs, when they really want to see what you can do, they let you run with the one, the number one O-line.

Speaker 22 And normally, when they pull the offensive line out, guess who else is coming out? The quarterback.

Speaker 22 Because the quarterback, the starting quarterback is not going to be in there with the twos and threes.

Speaker 22 The starting running back is not going to be in there with the twos and threes. So I'm going to be very interesting to see.
It is the first preseason game.

Speaker 22 And given the way the preseason is done now, starters don't normally play.

Speaker 22 They don't normally play, and they don't play much. So Shadur is going to have to make, Shadur is going to have to make wine with the water that he, the whale water that he's been giving.

Speaker 22 You're going to be all right.

Speaker 22 He's not been given purified water. He's not been given bottled water.
So he's going to have to make do with what he has. That's the good thing, though.

Speaker 22 The cards that he's dealt on Friday night when he enters that game, regardless of what's surrounding him. He's going to make something happen.

Speaker 22 When he does make something happen, when he's able to make something out of nothing and this is no disrespect to the twos and the threes and the fours that are trying to make that team everybody out there buying for a job

Speaker 22 for sure

Speaker 22 but you and i both know i know but listen they're only about five jobs up for grab they know they know with it they know within 40 guys 41 guys who's gonna build that rock yeah oh listen they they don't know they don't know yet because what they're planning on and what they're trying to do whatever it may be

Speaker 22 when he gets his opportunity all he got to do is not to go down i don't care what you put around me i'm gonna show you I'm going to get the job done. So imagine

Speaker 22 if I can get out there and cut up on Friday with threes and fours and twos at my helm, what you think will happen when I got the ones? What you think is going to happen when I got Judy, huh?

Speaker 22 And Joku and the rest of them boys at my disposal as my weaponry. If I can do this with my threes and fours and twos out here in a preseason game,

Speaker 22 all he's done all his life is win, huh?

Speaker 22 That's all he's done. So now you put me in this situation, a little obstacle, a little adversity.
All right,

Speaker 22 I've been here before.

Speaker 22 I got this. I've been here before.
I got this.

Speaker 22 Yeah,

Speaker 22 I agree with Joe Choke. I mean, he's never had a situation like this.

Speaker 22 You don't know what you can overcome until you're faced with it.

Speaker 22 God dogged, man, with my pen.

Speaker 22 Oh, that's a good one. Let me write that down.
Because strength is...

Speaker 22 I'm going fast, man. I got to write that down.
I'm going to put that in my notes. Hold on.
Because, oh, yo, here's the thing. See, strength is not what you possess.

Speaker 22 Strength is overcoming something that you didn't think you could.

Speaker 22 See, a lot of people thinking, well, I can lift this or I can do that. That is not strength.
Strength is overcoming something you didn't think you could.

Speaker 22 He's never been in this situation before. He's been the best.

Speaker 22 And now

Speaker 22 he's going to have to, that strength that his father has instilled him. His father is very biblical.
His father is very into the church, is into the word.

Speaker 22 All those words that his father has been preaching to him for a lifetime, it will be put to the test.

Speaker 22 See, like when the devil told Judge, yeah, of course, God, he's going to serve you. You give him everything.
Look at the family. Look at the livestock that you have.
Look at what you blessed him with.

Speaker 22 Why would he not serve you? Remove the hedge and he'll curse his very baker.

Speaker 22 Shadur

Speaker 22 has had abundance

Speaker 22 of everything.

Speaker 22 He had a dad that had the resources to get him that opportunity to go learn and study under Tom Brady, to get him throwing coaches and to put him in the best situations.

Speaker 22 Now.

Speaker 22 You can call on that

Speaker 22 to recall recall what Tom said this and this guy said that and do this, do that.

Speaker 22 But at the end of the day, when you fall on your knees,

Speaker 22 now

Speaker 22 because see, that's what faith is.

Speaker 22 It's believing

Speaker 22 even though you can't see it.

Speaker 22 You see,

Speaker 22 man says, show me and I'll trust you. God says, trust me, and i'll show you you see the difference between the two yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Speaker 22 Shadur is going to have to rely on his faith

Speaker 22 because at this time, that's all he has. And I'm not so sure.
that he's not the only one that has it because I'm not so sure the people in that building have faith in him.

Speaker 22 But you can't, listen, the people in the building, you ain't got to worry about that. You don't have to worry about that.

Speaker 22 At the end of the day, if they don't want you, if they don't want you,

Speaker 22 let me put on film. Let me put on film.

Speaker 22 This is what you got to do. At the end of the day, regardless of what they do, regardless of where I am on the depth chart, I have a job to do.

Speaker 22 And I'm going to do it to the best of my ability, regardless of what you put out there on the field with me on Friday.

Speaker 22 At the end of the day, it's still football.

Speaker 22 We've been all been playing football seasons.

Speaker 22 Cream arise to the tip.

Speaker 22 Man, you just took the word right out of my mouth.

Speaker 22 How about you get this?

Speaker 22 I've been in Shadura. See, I was Shadur Sanders before Shadur Sanders gets at a different position.

Speaker 22 I know what it's like. I went to a team that just went to the Super Bowl.
Although they got drugged, they brought every receiver back.

Speaker 22 Mark Jackson,

Speaker 22 Vance Johnson, Ricky Natilla, Michael Young. They only keep in five receivers, and four of the guys that went to the Super Bowl are back.

Speaker 22 They're back.

Speaker 22 You're going to be all right. So we got, they bring in four or five other receivers.

Speaker 22 Shannon Sharp's a seventh rounder.

Speaker 22 I know that, but I'm supposed to be a camp body.

Speaker 22 But what you expect out of me and what I expect out of me are two different things.

Speaker 22 I don't let you set my agenda. I don't let you set my expectation.
I see you.

Speaker 22 And that's how Shadur has to think.

Speaker 22 I know what y'all playing. I know, hey, in life,

Speaker 22 when Ray told Claude, he's like, I know you're thinking something. You got something up your sleeve.
I know you got something brewing. I ain't got nothing, Ray.
I got an ass cutting for your brewing.

Speaker 22 Shadur just needs to be Shadur.

Speaker 22 He doesn't have to be anything else other than that.

Speaker 22 And that's good enough. His best is good enough.
He doesn't have to be extraordinary. This is now the NFL, it is the league.
You remember that movie, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen?

Speaker 22 There are a lot of extraordinary gentlemen in this league. A lot of them.

Speaker 22 But that ain't what he has to beat out.

Speaker 22 And that's no disrespect to them.

Speaker 22 Let's be realistic. They take it how they want to.

Speaker 22 I'm just saying.

Speaker 22 Joe Flacco is in year 18, and he's way past his prime.

Speaker 22 Kenny Pickett, hey, we'll see. He's hurt.
Can't make the club in the tub. Dylan Gabriel, he's hurt.

Speaker 22 I'm telling you what's going to happen. Say one thing about it.
One thing, one, one thing about the football gods. You hear me? One thing about the football gods.

Speaker 22 When they know, when they know, especially if it's funny business going on, the way they're moving,

Speaker 22 cream always rise at the top. That's it.
I don't care what you put around me.

Speaker 22 I'm going to make it work. I'm going to make it to do the listen.

Speaker 22 When you go to the casino and they deal you them goddamn cards, you can't control what you dealt.

Speaker 22 You got to play the hand you deal. You got to play the hand you dealt.
You got to play it to the best of your ability. That's it.
That's all you got to do.

Speaker 22 Go out there with just straight, straight confidence. This is my team.
You got to walk it. You got to play like it.
You got to walk in that stadium like you own it.

Speaker 22 You got to walk. You got to.

Speaker 22 Oh, I see the game y'all playing. Okay, bet.
Let me show you something. Yeah.
Let me show you something.

Speaker 22 And it's not easy because I don't want people to think that, oh, he, you never, yes, yes, there were, there were, there were nights that I would go to bed and I'm asking myself, am I good enough?

Speaker 22 Man, I only got three plays and I ain't catch a pass.

Speaker 22 So if I'm a receiver, how am I getting judged

Speaker 22 by everything else? To do as a quarterback, he don't get no reps. How is he getting judged?

Speaker 22 Okay, I caught one part. I caught it.

Speaker 22 I caught it.

Speaker 22 And it's like, man, is it, man, I had this great career at Glenville. I had a great career at Savannah State.
And now I'm here.

Speaker 22 In my mind,

Speaker 22 what person doesn't think that he's better than some of the people that he's going against? It wasn't like

Speaker 22 I wasn't going against

Speaker 22 Hall of Fame receivers. It wasn't Jerry.

Speaker 22 It wasn't Jerry Rice and my brother and Chris Carter and all those guys out there. That was how I was going to have to try to win time from.

Speaker 22 But look, it gave me confidence that John Elway told me I could play in this league. He thought I had the ability to play.

Speaker 22 It helped me a lot when Mark Jackson

Speaker 22 would legitimately tell me what I needed to do.

Speaker 22 But yeah,

Speaker 22 I'm fighting for a job and we're fighting for a job and a guy told me the wrong route. I didn't know it was the wrong route.
I went in there and ran it. Dan Reed chewed my ass up.

Speaker 22 You at full speed, though?

Speaker 22 Hey, asked me what the hell?

Speaker 22 I'm running the route.

Speaker 22 Hey,

Speaker 22 oh, I swole. I just knew I read the right route.
No trouble.

Speaker 22 Hey, nice move. Hey, nice slap.

Speaker 22 Arm or rib that try to, you know what I'm saying, Ocho. Hey, I hit it right quick.

Speaker 22 Because, you know, back then, you spend too much time dancing in the line of scrimmage, they're going to come up through your face mask. So, hey, plant, chop, I'm over.

Speaker 22 He blowed the whistle up like, damn, I ain't even halfway through my route, oh cho. What he blowing the whistle for? Let me get this rock and do something on it.

Speaker 22 Shadow Shark, what the hell are you doing?

Speaker 22 You know, me old smart.

Speaker 22 I'm thinking to myself, what the hell it looks like I'm doing running that route?

Speaker 22 What you got on such and such? I said, I thought I got.

Speaker 22 What can I say? Somebody told me the wrong route. You supposed to know what the hell you're supposed to do anyway.

Speaker 22 That's, hey,

Speaker 22 that's a learn.

Speaker 22 That's a learner. It's a cutthroat business, OJo.
Bro, I'm trying to get a job. Absolutely.

Speaker 22 And

Speaker 22 if I can remove you out of the way to make my opportunity to get this job easier, guess what I'm going to do? I am going to remove you.

Speaker 22 Call removing the competition. We know it.
We hear all about

Speaker 22 the drug, what they try to do. Take over somebody's territory.
You try to expand the territory. It doesn't matter how.

Speaker 22 I just just need to expand i just make sure

Speaker 22 so he's trying to remove me i've run the wrong route

Speaker 22 hey let me hey no ask again

Speaker 22 but you know what

Speaker 22 and mary porter used to say god don't like ugly sometimes he don't like pretty

Speaker 22 guess who wasn't the first one to get cut

Speaker 22 but he told you the wrong route

Speaker 22 Hey, listen, one thing about it, boy, you can't deny greatness, boy.

Speaker 22 You can't

Speaker 22 deny greatness, you know?

Speaker 22 It was meant for me to go there. Remember when we got when Shadura got drafted, I said

Speaker 22 it's a blessing in disguise.

Speaker 22 Because

Speaker 22 they've always had an issue at finding the answer at that position.

Speaker 22 Now, whilst they try to play with him, I said, watch they try to play with him, and he ends up being the answer that they didn't even know they had. Watch.

Speaker 22 I guarantee you. And if I'm wrong, I put my foot in my mouth.

Speaker 22 If I'm wrong, what the thing is, he might be the answer, Ocho, and that was not even the test that they gave him.

Speaker 22 That's the problem that they're up against. Wait a minute, man, man, bring that back one more time.

Speaker 22 That's it. You said he could be the answer.
Yes, he might, he could well be the answer, and that's not the test that they gave him.

Speaker 22 Hey, what are you preaching tonight, boy? God.

Speaker 22 What's for you? What's for you? It's for you.

Speaker 22 Can't nobody stop it.

Speaker 22 If it's meant to be, it's meant to be.

Speaker 22 And God is God in good and in bad.

Speaker 22 And we just got to, we just, we understand that. We accept that.

Speaker 22 But,

Speaker 22 yeah.

Speaker 22 Whatever.

Speaker 22 Kevin Stafansky confirmed this today and added that Tyler Snoop Huntley will be the only other quarterback to play in the game with Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, and Dylan Gabriel slated to rest.

Speaker 22 Won't he do it? Won't he do it, Aunt?

Speaker 22 Hey, look, look,

Speaker 22 the opportunity has presented itself.

Speaker 22 It's kind of like divine order, if y'all ask me, Arkan Ocho. You know what I mean? Like, it's like God working mysterious ways, man.

Speaker 22 I know we don't want nobody to get hurt, but to see them two dudes have, you know, somewhat hamstring injuries and flappo, obviously, probably who's not going to play.

Speaker 22 Man, I'm looking forward to him just coming out, you know, relaxing and just having fun, bro. I think it's going to be a good time for the young fella.

Speaker 22 You know what my mindset is? What's that?

Speaker 22 Kenny Pickett and Dylan Gabriel are about to get some permanent rest

Speaker 22 they're gonna be gone when we get

Speaker 22 be gone it's oh it's old for them yeah

Speaker 22 it's old for them

Speaker 22 just go ahead just do what you do enjoy the moment

Speaker 22 that's it man just be you titus stop

Speaker 22 boy show hey but look can y'all imagine like the jitters or or or the butterflies that he may have like he's actually about to get ready to live out of uh the american dream you know which is making it to the NFL.

Speaker 22 That's probably one of his main goals.

Speaker 22 And to be able to, you know, start in his first preseason game. Man, I remember when I was a rookie, Uncle Ocho, listen, boy, I took the preseason like it was the playoffs.

Speaker 22 Like, you know, as because as a young fella, you know, you gotta, you gotta prove yourself. You don't know no better.
You gotta, you gotta prove yourself.

Speaker 22 So, only thing you know is going out there playing hard and showing that you belong.

Speaker 22 Yeah,

Speaker 22 four string ain't gonna start yeah

Speaker 22 I told you listen fourth string he's fourth on the depth chart

Speaker 22 Yeah, I don't know, because what I've been, I mean, I read and it says, man, Shador is outplaying Dylan Gabriel. And then some people keep saying, well, he ain't.

Speaker 22 I don't really know. I mean, I wish I could be there to actually see it for myself.
But I've read more articles and with it's, it, it says, it reads that Shadur is outplaying Dylan Gabriel. Yeah.

Speaker 22 I agree. I've been, I've been seeing some of that.
I've been seeing a lot of it too. Listen,

Speaker 22 you know, my eyes and the ears, my eyes and the ears, they're in Miami. You hear me? What do you mean?

Speaker 22 What I want to know about what's going on and how. He got eyes in Miami.
He got ears in Cleveland. Oh, okay.
You hear me? So I just ask. I go straight to the source.

Speaker 22 I go to the source that's actually on the field. I go to the source that's not a media person, that's not an analyst, that can give it to me straight.

Speaker 22 Boy, what are them boys out there looking like, man?

Speaker 22 Okay, boom. That last time I said a name.
This time I'm not saying no names, which is why I'm so confident. And when we talk about Shador and the Cleveland Browns, that's all.

Speaker 22 Because I also mean no disrespect. I told you we're going to get his opportunity.

Speaker 22 I didn't know it would come this fast and in this way. I've said it.
I said it before. Okay, Joe Flacco is going to be the starter.

Speaker 22 And I say, if things aren't going well for Joe Flacco, because he plays well in Spurs, he'll get on a four or five game stretch and things somewhat fall apart or come off the hinges.

Speaker 22 And then he'll get his opportunities. Now you get your opportunity early.
You see how God work? Yep.

Speaker 22 Remember the Wally Pip story? You know about the Wally Pip story? Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 22 Chad, Chad, if you don't know about the Wally Pip story, look at the Wally Pip story.

Speaker 22 You know, I don't want nobody injured, but I just want the opportunities given to players that are drafted to a team to be fair and everybody giving.

Speaker 22 Well, you see how God works. Wally Pip wasn't injured.
He just had a headache that day.

Speaker 22 It never got his job back. But you look, we'll find out.
We'll see. Everybody's like, it's only three preseason games.
So,

Speaker 22 I mean,

Speaker 22 the mere fact that he's playing, because normally when guys, they're not expecting guys to make a change. Oh, Joe, they don't let normally let them guys play because you know why?

Speaker 22 Because I don't want you to get hurt and I got to keep you.

Speaker 22 Hey, but listen,

Speaker 22 he prepared for this, huh? Joe,

Speaker 22 he's prepared for this moment.

Speaker 22 If anything, in in all you've been through, the doubters, the naysayers, the haters, your enemies right there in your own backyard that drafted you, if what the owner said last week is not motivation to go out there and cut a plum fool

Speaker 22 in an organized way,

Speaker 22 in an organized way, in a structured environment, it's still the game of football. Show that you can be a leader, calm.
quiet, collected, and reserved.

Speaker 22 Martha, I guarantee,

Speaker 22 watch what happened

Speaker 22 first guarantee he marched the ass right down the goddamn field in that first drive first drive first drive i get i guarantee you that's how it plays out

Speaker 22 marching right down the field listen if you don't play well i'm gonna hold him accountable

Speaker 22 if you don't play well i'm gonna hold him accountable just like we're supposed to hold everybody accountable i mean

Speaker 22 but you see how they fix it up oh joe Huh? Oh, they talk about, oh, Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, and Dylan Gabriel are slated to rest. Nah, they hurt.

You know,

Speaker 22 we play the Eagles. You know,

Speaker 22 we're going to put belt to ass.

Speaker 22 That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 22 First of all, y'all don't play in the preseason. And guess what?

Speaker 22 Hey, we can't. Listen, we're not pulling that.
We're not pulling that this year. Y'all pull that every year.

Speaker 22 No, no, no. I'm saying they've been relaxing in the preseason, right? Yeah.
Not playing the preseason and then going to week one, trying to go from zero to 100.

Speaker 22 Joe, Jamar,

Speaker 22 T, I need y'all boys. Get one or two series.
Get one or two series. Just get the juices flowing.
Get acclimated to the speed of the game.

Speaker 22 I know y'all, you're veterans now.

Speaker 22 Come on now.

Speaker 22 We can't start

Speaker 22 the season 0-2, 0-3 out the gate again. We can't afford that.
We can't afford that. I give y'all a quarter.
I give them a quarter, Ocho.

Speaker 22 Oh, they ain't playing no quarter. They ain't playing no quarter the first preseason game, Joe.
They ain't giving one series. One or two series.

Speaker 22 They ain't gonna give us a hand.

Speaker 22 Not to the third game. Well, it's only it's only a uncle, it's only three games now, huh? Three, yeah.

Speaker 22 Yeah, so the third game, hey, Joe, we played a half damn near uh the whole first half, yeah, or play or play the first series of the third quarter.

Speaker 22 All right, see what child guys, see what y'all working with?

Speaker 22 Hey, Joe, I love the practice so much, I love the preseason so much because i wanted to get my body as acclimated to game speed as fast as possible joe we could practice for 100 days straight full pads against yourself and you get in the game it's nothing like that yeah nothing like that yeah it's faster no matter what you do there's no way to duplicate and replicate the speed of an actual nfl game i don't care how much you practice that's why i love it so much i had coach

Speaker 22 a um

Speaker 22 i told this before joe i would not come out the game in preseason i made coach lewis call a timeout

Speaker 22 you wanted to get your reps in what he talked about one series man

Speaker 22 he came out and the twos went in i told the receiver to stay back and i went back in the game again hey

Speaker 22 i understand what you're saying rhythm and time is everything brother especially in basketball you know so i can understand in football you know just you know route running being sharp on your plays i can understand that part just like basketball if you don't play, bro, you lose that rhythm and time and it throws you off.

Speaker 22 Right. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 22 It definitely takes time. And look, I needed to get reps too.
That's how I was on your. I wanted to look.
I understand, okay, we're going to go a series,

Speaker 22 the first game, maybe two series or the quarter, the third, the second game. And then we go into the half.
We, we go at bare minimum, we go into the half.

Speaker 22 And normally we take the first series because, and sometimes we're like, okay, we're going to use the first series in the third quarter. We're going to go two minutes.

Speaker 22 So we're going to go hurry up just to get that in one time

Speaker 22 but uh

Speaker 22 yeah i like i i i i needed a preseason like these guys i don't know how they do it i take my hat off to these guys that come out there and i guess right now the way they do it ocho these uh scripted practices against each other i guess that's their preseason game that ain't that ain't foot that ain't pre no no it ain't the same right

Speaker 22 not even close

Speaker 22 but i'm anxious to see i'm anxious to see uh uh what should how she do it like look

Speaker 22 It's important. You got to win that first game.
Ain't nothing like that.

Speaker 22 So the Browns are giving Shadua one day of reps with the ones for the very first time at the joint practice two days before a start let's see here for a second chat

Speaker 22 so all this time he ain't got no work with the ones

Speaker 22 not one not one snap not one rep

Speaker 22 he'll he won't he do it

Speaker 22 hey the boy's gonna ball out man Hey, a mysterious way. I'm telling you, you're gonna go out there, take them boy right down the field.

Speaker 22 I'm just trying to figure out if you're really trying to do an evaluation.

Speaker 22 Ocho, how can I say I'm trying to evaluate you when I don't give you the same opportunities that I'm giving everybody else that I'm evaluating?

Speaker 22 Now, Ocho, I'm gonna see if you can do this job. Now, the job requires a computer, but I ain't gonna give you no computer, Ocho.

Speaker 22 But this is what I'm gonna do. Oh, damn, them other guys ain't come to, ain't come to work today.
Okay, Ocho, you up. Here's the computer.

Speaker 22 Now, you ain't let me work the computer the whole damn time for two weeks.

Speaker 22 But you know the funny thing about that, though?

Speaker 22 Even though I wasn't able to work the computer for them two weeks, when you put the computer in my hands, I'm still better than those that's had it at their disposal before me anyway. Hello.
Hello.

Speaker 22 I'm going to be better than those that had the computer them other two weeks before me anyway.

Speaker 22 And I'm going to put it on display

Speaker 22 under the lights at that.

Speaker 22 Well, I just thought, like, if you're evaluating, you evaluate under the same sort of circumstances. You can't say, well, you can't say, well, I'm going to see these two.

Speaker 22 If I got two pans and I'm going to see which one can stand the temperature, I got to put them under the same temperature

Speaker 22 in order to do a proper evaluation. I can't let one guy get no reps with the ones, only get a few reps with the threes and fours.

Speaker 22 And now I get two days before, okay.

Speaker 22 Okay, you up, son? Yeah.

Speaker 22 That's not an evaluation.

Speaker 22 Evaluation is

Speaker 22 you put things under the same set of circumstances over the same amount of time.

Speaker 22 I like it.

Speaker 22 That's how you get boiling or you get freezing temperatures. Because guess what? It's going to, at 212, it's going to boil.

Speaker 22 It's either going to bust pipes or make diamonds, baby.

Speaker 22 I'm ready. This is an opportunity.

Speaker 22 This is what he waited for. This is what a lot of people cheered for.
Like, man, I sure hope he gets an opportunity.

Speaker 22 I sure hope he gets a chance to show what he can do.

Speaker 22 And it is. This is how the opportunity came about.
I don't feel bad. Hey, I know you saw this chat.
I know y'all saw this, Joe.

Speaker 22 I'm not sure how often you're on Twitter, but you know, I'm on there all day having fun, making jokes. But did you see the meme, right? The meme, but

Speaker 22 I think it might have been the end of Kobe's career. Kobe might have hit 60 at a game, and all of the celebs was there.
And they used that clip of um

Speaker 22 a snoop dog and Kanye. Everybody was court side, and they was cheering, it was hype, right? I guess Kobe might have hit 60 or something, yeah, he had 60 that year against Utah.

Speaker 22 That's what it was, yeah. And then the caption was,

Speaker 22 This is this is black Twitter when Shadura throws his first eight-yard slant. Everybody go

Speaker 22 celebrate,

Speaker 22 oh, it is so funny. D even Prime had to comment on it.

Speaker 22 His first completion. Yeah, first completion.
His first completion, people are going to be, hey, man, that's the game winning the Super Bowl. Hey, dog, that was so funny.

Speaker 22 Hey, what y'all think the raids are going to be on this game Friday when they play? Oh, it's going to be

Speaker 22 crazy. Yeah, Raiden going to be crazy because you know everybody tuning in to see but 12 and a dude.
Yeah, for sure.

Speaker 22 For sure. It'll be the one.

Speaker 22 Hell, this game might do a bigger rating than the real Browns game.

Speaker 22 Why, you bull? No, no, real talk. Yeah, yeah, you're right.
You're right. You're right.

Speaker 22 When was the last time, the last time they had a player that was this talked about? You probably got to go back to Baker Mayfield. Yeah, probably, probably Baker.

Speaker 22 And the same thing happened to Baker. Remember, you put Baker as the backup, and everybody was talking about Baker the backup.

Speaker 22 Yeah.

Speaker 22 Damn. I'm trying to think of a player that was talking was talking about.
Hey, this is how the big it is, Ocho. Joe, it's a national televised game.

Speaker 22 Yeah. Cleveland in a preseason.
Yeah. Yeah.
The stage said, man, it's the A, it said time. Yeah.
Oh, let me

Speaker 22 add a little plot twist for you, Ocho. Cleveland,

Speaker 22 Carolina Panthers, national televised game. That's crazy, ain't it?

Speaker 22 That's that's that's that's crazy, ain't it?

Speaker 22 It's crazy the power of that last name, even though they're trying to humble it.

Speaker 22 Let that sink in.
