| 0:00.0 | On Deshaun, I know you guys will ask a question and I appreciate that. I don't have much to add. I don't have a ton of information for you. |
| 0:08.0 | We have a plan and as information becomes available we can adjust that plan, but sure to that I really don't have too much that I can provide. |
| 0:16.0 | Jacobis are back of quarterback if Deshaun is unavailable at Jacobis to start. |
| 0:20.0 | Are your expectations for the season the same regardless of how long Deshaun plays, how long he does not play and how long he does not play? |
| 0:30.0 | Yeah, they don't change regardless of how the situation works itself out and we're going to hold ourselves to a high standard, no matter what happens. |
| 0:38.0 | What happens and a defense is going to do what they do. And you know, last time I heard they can't win at the Elscore points. |
| 0:46.0 | Kevin's defense getting Miles Garrett talking about the Deshaun Watson situation and it really isn't a stunner that Jacobi percent is the guy. |
| 0:54.0 | But included within that message is the idea that if Watson is out for most of all of the year it's still Jacobi percent. |
| 1:04.0 | One percent was signed. There was a vibe that it's going to be maybe six games and persets the guy that would step in. |
| 1:10.0 | If it becomes 17, it's still percent, but I think the deeper message is they don't really believe it's going to be the whole season. |
| 1:18.0 | I think at most they believe it's going to be eight. I've reported they're bracing for eight and so persets the guy. |
| 1:25.0 | They're not going to go get Jimmy Garoppolo. They're not going to try to do some other deal and bring somebody else in Cam Newton had been mentioned a few weeks back. |
| 1:32.0 | No, is Jacobi percent backed up by Josh Dobbs or Josh Rosen. That's what the depth charts are going to be. |
| 1:38.0 | Yeah, that's what they're going with. That's fine. They don't want to confuse things. You know, I've had people ask me about the Jimmy Garoppolo. |
| 1:44.0 | But like, it's just going to make things, you know, dysfunctional at some point or what if you're doing really good with Jimmy Garoppolo. |
| 1:52.0 | And he's eight. No, and you guys are seven and what you're going to know we got Deshaun Watson. We paid him all this money. We're going to bench Jimmy Garoppolo. |
| 1:58.0 | It just causes more problems than it's worth. They signed this group of quarterbacks knowing what could happen and signed it and did it knowing that maybe Deshaun won't be there. |
| 2:08.0 | But Jacobi were sets playing a lot of football and he's capable of holding down the fort. And you know, I like you. I've heard from some people in the league that, you know, again, I don't think they know for sure. |
| 2:18.0 | But I think the feeling, yeah, I think we've talked about this the last two days. You know, I've heard 12, 10. It's going to go back down to 10 or eight. |
| 2:26.0 | So that's something like that. So that seems to be where it's going to go. And I don't doubt the Cleveland Browns would Jacobi percent. |
| 2:34.0 | You know, either way, their team has got to be ready to go as awesome as Deshaun Watson is, even if he can play week one, I don't think he's going to be the Deshaun Watson we saw. |
| 2:42.0 | So they got to be able to play some defense, be a little bit more dominant against the better teams and football this year, run the football and do that. |
