In short

Nightcap Hour 1 covers three NFL training-camp storylines: the New York Giants trading offensive tackle Daniel Faalele to the Jacksonville Jaguars; Cleveland Browns practice physicality under coach Todd Monken; and Shedeur Sanders commenting on Monken’s intensity. It also includes discussion of Deshaun Watson media remarks and a separate segment critiquing receiver hands/drops (Judy/Juju clip discussion).

Guests/backgrounds

Main hosts are Chad “Ocho Cinco” Johnson (former Pro Bowl/All-Pro) and Joe Johnson (“ISO Joe,” 7-time NBA All-Star).

Guest

Rolly Romero (boxing; upcoming fight). Other referenced figures: Shedeur Sanders (QB prospect) and Todd Monken (Browns defensive coordinator/head coach Todd Monken referenced).

Key claims

Faalele’s pass protection/footwork are criticized; the trade is framed as Jaguars needing bodies due to OL injuries, while Giants get a 2027 sixth-round pick. Browns should be physical but “stay away from the quarterback arm/shoulder” to avoid injuries. Monken’s toughness is defended as necessary to build toughness and accelerate young players’ learning.

Notable examples

Faalele stats cited (2025: 535 pass-block snaps, 30% pressure allowed, four sacks). Browns practice incidents: contact on Shadour Sanders’ arm; Aiden Huntington knocking Quinshawn Judkins down. Clip discussion centers on “lazy hands” and too many drops by Jerry Judy/Juju.

6:49Shannon Sharpe:We got a very special guest joining us a little late in the evening at 8.30 Pacific, Rolly Romero. He joins us, talking about his big upcoming fight. But first, you're never going to believe this, guys. The New York Giants have traded Daniel Faleli to the Jaguars for a six-round draft pick in 2027. According to Pro Football Focus, the 6 '8", 380-pound tackle, masquerading as a football player, had 535 snap, pass blocking snaps, 30 % pressure allowed, and gave up four sacks in 2025. That's a miscount. Harbaugh must have been listening to those guys. Ocho. Hey, that's your fault, honestly. That's your

7:30Chad Johnson:fault. I blame you. Obviously, I think needs to understand, obviously, when he talks about players on here, his voice holds so much weight that even in the higher positions of those who make the calls and and can control the outcomes of certain players that are still actively playing when unc says things like that it carries and it carry it it carries it does like who who how do you we eight weeks in the in the training camp eight days if that how you already already traded lost his job man lost his job man you know it wasn't good to begin with i ain't tell no lie well hey obviously he was he was good enough for him to come to go from uh from Baltimore over to New York.

8:14He brought him with him for a reason.

8:18Shannon Sharpe:Hey, have you ever moved before, Ocho? Yes, sir. Sometimes you take stuff to the new house that you should have left at the old house, don't you? It just happens. It's just the way it is. It just happens sometimes. It be that way. Just a hoarder.

8:31Chad Johnson:He's just a hoarder, huh? Yeah, that's what he is. Yeah, actually, it's unfortunate. You never want to see a player lose a job. You never do, but obviously he needs to improve. Maybe this is gonna be a wake up call, in a sense, to improve at his respective craft at the position that he does play and become more of an asset, become more valuable. I mean, that's the only thing I can think of.

8:52Shannon Sharpe:You look at it and you look at what he allowed to happen to Lamar Jackson as mobile as Lamar is. You think Jackson Dart was going to be able to get away from that? Nah. I mean, Lamar Jackson, he had Lamar Jackson running for his life. Ain't no telling what Lamar numbers would have looked like had he been able to get some protection and not have to make a decision instantaneous. Right. But look, reading up on this, Joe, I see that Jacksonville, they've been besieged. Their offensive line has been besieged by O-line injuries. One guy had a back surgery. A couple of guys are just – some guys are just getting back.

9:26Shannon Sharpe:But basically they had – I was reading they had like four or five of their offensive linemen that's been down and been dealing with injuries. So this is why they made the move. but hey to be able to get a six round draft pick in 2027 for that guy and you know he was the second round he was uh the second string lineman but he hadn't played well in a very very long time

9:48Chad Johnson:hey i'm saying so y 'all think he gonna he gonna he gonna back so he gonna back some guys up he finished start joe jacksonville for the start he had to see the start in two weeks and but then he can't but you he can't be a bad he could probably be a backup if everybody for the for the for the jacksonville jaguar behind the bench that's a big boy though man what are you six seven six eight six eight three eighty yeah and just just a joke just by looking at him you know he looks physically imposing but he doesn't play his size he didn't play nowhere near his size that's why i think someone of that size he's more of a project and they will keep him around until he improves he'll always have a job joe especially at that size always ain't no more for no joe this man been

10:33Shannon Sharpe:in the league for five years ain't no more project you got to be developed and nobody take this long day take this long to build a great wall of china you know that's it that's 2 000 miles long how the hell did it take you two how you how you can finish something i'm just being facetious but come on man it's time for him he got to develop it's time for him to to to get better yeah he has he has to be better and right now he's I mean look maybe he's maybe he's better in the run game than pass protection and normally guys that side are not normally guys that side don't you they're maulers Joe yeah they just try to get your hands on you and try to maul you he's and the reason why he they list him as tackling he can't play tackle because he doesn't play well in space because it's too slow feet too slow yeah and you're not and I've been with Joe slow feet don't eat

11:21Chad Johnson:hey absolutely so it's like hey hey so why in hell would Jacksonville trade for they besieged by injuries yeah oh they need they need a body and you know what I don't like to also you leave Baltimore you go to New York you get traded to Jacksonville you know that's a blow to your ego not only your ego but the one thing that you need to play any sport matter of fact the one thing you need to do anything in life and want to succeed at it is Joe you need confidence you got to have confidence in everything that you do And when stuff like this continues to happen, I'm sure he hears all the things that people say about him on the outside looking in.

11:55I know he tried to maintain his focus and doing the best that he can. But even his best right now is not good enough because if it was good enough, you'll still be in Baltimore. If it was good enough, you'll still be in New York. His confidence is shot at this point.

12:09Chad Johnson:I'm saying why you think it's a blow to his ego, though? I mean, Joe, you're an NFL player, Joe. You're an NFL player. I'm saying, but. Anytime you get traded. Anytime, for one, you hear all the noise from last year, right? So Harbaugh goes to New York. Harbaugh brings you, right? I'm not even sure if you would have started there in New York. But now you get traded eight weeks, nine, eight. Well, I keep saying weeks. Eight, nine days in the training camp. Now you're on another team. That does something to you, Joe. Hey, hey, hey. I think it does something to you, Ocho. But at the same time, it lets you know, hell, you still have an opportunity.

12:43Chad Johnson:Somebody wanted me. Yeah, somebody wants you, and that's all you want. You know, as a professional, now I can see if they sent his ass home, they released him, and he was on the couch somewhere. You know what I mean? But the fact that he still gets a chance to play high-level football in the NFL, I still think he has a real opportunity.

13:00Shannon Sharpe:How do we understand this then, Joe? Harbaugh kept his ass in the start lineup the whole last year and getting tomorrow chased all around the field like Debo chasing it. After one sack, he traded. So you mean to tell me you're going to trade him after one sack on Jackson Dart and then you're going to let – I mean, and then now you let him play a whole season and a half. He started like 30-something games for the Ravens.

13:25Chad Johnson:Yeah. That's him. That's probably why – you basically trying to say that's why they were playing bad football over there? He bad.

13:34Shannon Sharpe:I don't know why they were playing bad. I just know he bad. All the other stuff, let me – hey, we can sit down and go through it frame by frame and go through player by player, and I'm sure we can find something wrong with all players. It doesn't matter how great you were, how marginal you are. We all don't play our best football at every single snap, every single down. But with that being said, at some point in time, Ocho, Joe, you just can't keep chasing guys around. You can't be out there like a blind dog in a meat house. Like, which one I got? Who did I get? Which way did he go? Which way did he go?

14:07Shannon Sharpe:I mean, he just, he bad. I mean, hey, his footwork is bad. And look, it is hard to have quick feet when you're that size. You think about the man, damn, they're 20 pounds for 400. Yeah. There ain't very many guys in the league, especially guys been that heavy that can play. Yeah. It just gets so heavy, you just don't move well. And that's him. He just doesn't move well. I mean, you watch him try to pass it, it's like slowly I turn. Step by step. Like, damn, the man already done going by you.

14:45Chad Johnson:So you're saying the defensive lineman up there, when he see him in front of him, his eyes get big.

14:54Shannon Sharpe:Defensive lineman, they fighting trying to line up over him to get – hey, come on, man.

15:01Shannon Sharpe:Hey, they over there – the Ravens snapping the ball. The D-line, they over there arguing because they want to be in front of him.

15:11I'm hoping to get revived himself over there in Jacksonville, man. You know, get some quality reps. I'm not sure who's over there on the D-line with Jacksonville, but one of those players, you know, he needs to stay out the practice zone and just work on everything. Blocking, you know, drop on past setting. I mean, whatever he needs to do just to improve, man, so he can become more of an asset and more of a value to that team that he's on now. because you know what the next step is.

15:40Chad Johnson:Out of the league. Yeah. But Ocho, Ocho, hold on. Man, man been in the league four or five years, man. He is what he is. I mean. For sure. What do you think is going to happen? Joe, I don't know. I just know I want something. Something has to happen. Something has to click in him where he gets his confidence back. Right now, there's no way you have confidence. There's no way you have confidence. Hell, Joe, I'm rattled after I dropped one ball, Joe. Can you imagine going from team to team and getting traded?

16:08Shannon Sharpe:Everybody got the same level of pride you have, Ocho.

16:12Chad Johnson:So you're saying, hell, somebody beat you one time. He ain't beat you. He ain't going to beat you.

16:17Shannon Sharpe:And I'm not going to look that bad. Even when I ain't know the plays, I ain't look that damn bad. To look that, and I damn sure wasn't going to look that bad four or five years into my career. That's for certain.

16:31Chad Johnson:Right.

16:32Shannon Sharpe:And it's almost like he doesn't it's not like he can't block. It's almost like when he goes to the line and they do anything Other than what they're supposed to do like line up in front of him and come get it But if anything they do anything they move away bring extra guys Yeah, if they stunt, you know if his guy disappears He's kind of lost and not not catching the next person coming on the stunt any any wraps any overlaps is he It's it gets a little bit more difficult Yeah. You know that meme with that kid?

17:08That's him.

Read the full transcript

17:10Shannon Sharpe:Because football is quick. The plays only last like four seconds, so you got to make a decision instantaneous. Simple rule. If you hesitate, you beat. In any sport. Every time. If you hesitate, you beat. And far too many times, we've seen hesitation. And look, there's a great chance. I don't know. He might have made the team. He might have not have. But the mere fact they're able to get a six-round draft pick from him, they're able to get a six-round draft pick for a guy that could potentially not be on their roster when the final 53 is announced, I think that's a pretty good tradeoff for them.

17:53Shannon Sharpe:I think that's a pretty good tradeoff for them. They were able to get some – go ahead. they were able to get some level of compensation for him. But, I mean, look, the chat knows. The chat done watched it. They done seen cut-up clips. And we're not the only – I'm not the only one that's talked about his play or lack thereof. The chat can see for themselves, even the greatest – even, you know, just casual fans that really doesn't understand, you know, technique and sets or things of that nature can see that, nah, he's not good.

18:26Chad Johnson:Hey, hey, hey, Chad say the comment section can block better than his ass.

18:32Shannon Sharpe:His phone, he can't even block you on the phone. He can't even do the other block nightcap or block our account. That's how bad he is at blocking.

18:41Chad Johnson:Hey, y 'all got to chill. Hey, y 'all got to chill. Oh, damn. Damn. I'm going to talk that man into getting traded, man. Damn.

18:52Shannon Sharpe:I should be able to talk him into playing better. When you're moving like I do, trips don't always come together weeks in advance. Sometimes production shoots, interviews, or something I've got to travel for on a short notice. Like the time when I had the last minute trip to Denver and everything came together fast.

22:21Shannon Sharpe:Presented by iHeart. Another week of drama in Cleveland. First, this was reported yesterday from the Browns camp. Browns practice is over. It was an abrupt ending that Todd Munkin called as he addressed the team. He seemed to be frustrated with some of the over-physicality from the defense. During the move-the-ball session, a defensive lineman made contact with Shadour Sanders' arm and was sent to the sideline. Same thing happened with Aiden Huntington knocked Quinshawn Judkins to the ground on a run play. Practice was called not too long afterwards. Hey, Uncle Joe, does Todd Munkin understand what defense he has?

23:01Does he understand how good they were a top three defense last year? This is what I understand. You want to practice. You want the offense to be able to do what they want to do. But this is what you signed up for. You have a top three, five defense in the NFL. Of course you're going to have days like this. Of course, there's a reason they were that good. Can I ask you a question? Talk to me. Take your time.

23:23Shannon Sharpe:You think they're as good as the 2000 Ravens? Oh, that's impossible. We don't even have them kind of players these days. They never hit Trent Dilfer or they never hit Tony Banks arm. I got you. I got you. I see where you're going with it. Dumb Dumbs, you can't knock your own players out. Right. Do they understand? This is your team. This is what you're going to have to go to battle with. And if you harm, hurt your own players, oh, that's fine. You're fired up and I get all of that. I believe you can be as physical as you need to be. But you know you can't hit the quarterback arm now, Ocho. Yeah, yeah.

23:57I'm sure that was probably a mistake. You know, they don't want to do that on purpose, but they know they be flying boy. No, the boy be flying. They be flying, flying like hell, trying to trying to make a play and let on film. Look, I was there.

24:09Shannon Sharpe:Oh, boy. I wish I could have seen in my years there, nine years playing with John. Somebody hit his arm when he throw it. John Elway. Man, please. Come on now. You know better than that. You know better than that. I just want to see it. I just want to see what Dan or Mike would have said. Yeah. They threw you out of practice? Might have threw you in the waiver wire. They cut the hell out of you. You hit that man's arm. Because the thing is, you in that throwing motion, you mess around and bang his finger, you mess around and dislocate a finger, you break the hand, you hit his elbow, you mess his elbow up, you mess his shoulder up.

24:49Shannon Sharpe:The first rule of thumb is that you never get in the quarterback's motion. you never get anywhere close to his arm or his shoulder yeah yeah and then you're not matter of fact hey why you think kurt cousins and matt croppy was uh going at it same thing and yesterday what you call him went into it nick bonito and bo nix got into it see you see what i mean hey joe hey every time joe no man when joe when it come to training camp what this is what get every year no matter what they're dating back to when i played unc i'm not sure i'm sure we y 'all y 'all had scuffles as well but it really ain't training camp unless you're going at it

25:29Chad Johnson:yeah man and okay ocho it's kind of like the dog days that training because y 'all been going at it so damn much yeah look you got you got guys overzealous trying to make plays trying to make the team trying to impress the coaching staff it is what it is bro it's a doggy dog world out here You know what I mean, man? I'm trying to get it, bro. And you got these young teams like the Cleveland Browns who's still trying to show and prove themselves defensively. What I want to ask you, Ocho, is y 'all still think the Browns going to be a top five defense even though Myles Garrett is not there? I know they got some great pieces, but.

26:03Shannon Sharpe:I think it's going to be harder because I haven't seen. I need to see the improvement on the offense because eventually you're going to wear down. It's hard to be a top level defense when your offense doesn't generate any offense to give you a break because you a let's just say for the sake of argument you go three and out or you go and drive and you hold them only to three points mm-hmm you can't they kick the ball you kick the ball off they kick the ball off to you and the next day you know D you up cuz you go three it out yeah after after a little bit of that it gets it gets it gets demoralized yes and the one thing you don't want to have as a team is to get demoralized but see the Cleveland Cleveland offensive players don't know how to handle it the first time one of them guys would hit the quarterback shoulder or knock that court knock down a running back down we could yeah all right it's gonna get done you know so in other words you don't care about us so why should I care about you right right yeah yeah we can't but this is how I look at it Ocho when I say we team if office versus the defense yes sir so you do something my guy on offense I don't look at you as a teammate now I'm focused on all I see is that you knocked TD down.

27:13Shannon Sharpe:All of a sudden, all I saw is that you tried to hurt my quarterback. So now I got to get you. Yeah, I kind of agree with Unc in a sense almost. I don't play like that, man. Right. Hey, Joe, I kind of agree with Unc in a sense, but I think the way that defense is constructed, even with him losing Myles Garrett and having Brother Vers coming in from the L.A. Rams, I'm not saying he's Myles Garrett, but he's damn good. I'm not saying he's Myles Garrett, but he's damn good. Oh, no, no, no, Vers is a very good player. Yeah, yeah. Very good player. very good player. Yeah, hell yeah. So they still have most of their defensive pieces.

27:45So I still think they would be one of the top defenses in the NFL. Their secondary, solid. Yeah. You know, second level, solid. You know, you lose Miles Garrett, but I still think Jared Burst can fill that void. Maybe not getting 23 sacks, but boy, he got a motor, though. He got a motor.

28:05Shannon Sharpe:He'll be double-digit sacks. I think the thing, excuse me, Chad. the question that I have is offensively Ocho are they going to improve a little bit

28:19Chad Johnson:because their offense was really bad

28:21Shannon Sharpe:Ocho their offense was really bad last year and we're being kind they were awful if they improve just a little bit man but they're going to be here to deal with they're going to be here to deal with they got to have their identity is defense in general that that's their identity can you give us something on offense week to week give it give us give us give us 14 give us 17. whoo that's gonna be hard to come by ocho because i don't know browns improve the offensive line your quarterback get back your guys get back there man i mean we took it moved the ball when it's when it's team because sometimes don't you So, you know, we moved the ball this 7-on-7.

29:07Shannon Sharpe:But a lot of times, you know, you want to see move the ball, you want to see offense versus defense, ones versus ones. Right. So they got their best pass. They got their pass rushing package. You got a package with pass rushers. And then, you know, obviously we got our best players out there. Man, Zim and Ball and them weren't going for that. Nah. Nah. Nah. You can't do that. your teammates and I know it get good you get fired up and everything you do that you know slapping each other on the helmet and and banging I get it I get I trust me Chad I get it but at the end of the day that is your teammate you knocked the quarterback out you hurt the quarterback you hurt Jenkins is your best running back what do you get out of that third him up let him go stay away from the quarterback they can see on tape if you could have got to the quarterback I don't need you to get in the quarterback's wheelhouse and have him throw the ball, and the next thing you know, he done broke a finger because he hit your helmet.

30:15Shannon Sharpe:Or he jumps up to throw a ball, and you jump up, and his hand banged your hand. How many times have we seen that happen? Plenty.

30:23Chad Johnson:A lot.

30:24Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, come on, guys. You've got to be smart about this. I understand you've been hitting your guys for two weeks now. I am so tired of going against my own guy. I am. I really am. But I can't put him in harm's way. I just can't do it. And there have been situations where, you know, hey, we got a double block and we get the guy off balance, yeah. We could bury him. Or we got him on one leg, yeah. But what do I get out of that, Ocho? I'm hurting one of my best players. How does that help us in the long run to hurt one of our best players, Joe?

31:07Chad Johnson:It doesn't.

31:09Shannon Sharpe:I just need the guys to be smart and think about stuff because uh-oh don't help. My bad don't help. Just be smart about it, Cleveland. Be smart. Yeah, I already know what happened. That happened to Mike. We ain't never had no foolishness. We ain't have no foolishness like that. We might have had some things that might get upset about guys getting out of position, guys jumping outside, you know, offensive defense, guys dropping passes, guys getting beat. There are things that Mike would get upset about and make us repeat it, but he's going to start the period with that talk. Hey, when you're moving like I do, trips don't always come together weeks in advance.

35:09Shannon Sharpe:Presented by iHeart. A-yay-yay! Stay away from the quarterback. Be smart. This is your teammates. Boom. We take off from there. Shadour spoke about the intensity of Tom Munkin's practices at training camp. Let's take a listen to what Shadour had to say. I think Coach came in here understanding that we have ways to go overall when it comes to our wins and losses over the past few years and everything. So it's kind of like building that mentality of toughness. So it's like some places may have that luxury to not have to do that. But, you know, it's more about a deserved thing. I don't think, you know, we deserve to take as many days off like that because we have a lot of young players on offense and young players on the team that we got to be able to expedite the process on catching up with the game speed and really understanding the game.

36:07So it's a thing that, you know, sometimes you may feel a way about it, but it's in the grand scheme of things, it's moving towards the direction of where we're trying to get as a franchise as a team. So as long as everything's aligned with that, then that's how you know what's good and what's not good. And that's very good for us because we need to be able to go out there and execute regardless of age and regardless of experience.

36:36Shannon Sharpe:I agree with what he said. But you speed that up. If they hurt the quarterback, tell me how you speed that up if you hurt the quarterback. and you don't not nope not at all not at all hey todd todd munkin has a he has a tough job he has he has a tough job obviously quarterback has been a been an issue for the cleveland brown for a very long time 30 plus years if i'm not mistaken i'm correct me if i'm wrong uh but it's been a long time not only that todd munkin comes to the job where he's trying to change the culture it needs a change of culture so uh some some of the things i think todd munkin wants to instill in his team he also doesn't want to take the edge away from what their identity is and that's them being as great as they are defensively don't take don't take that away from but at the same time play within the grand scheme of be smart what practice is what practice is all about we know you're gonna get there we can see we watch film we know and just you know players have to understand that yeah I think well one thing I can say about your door a for to be a young player he's real good at quarterback speak.

37:45Shannon Sharpe:He real good and said all the right things. Coach is trying to expedite the process. You know, we didn't have a whole lot of wins and losses over the last couple of years. The first couple of years didn't have anything to do with me. I would just speak to what happened last year. I could just speak to what happened when I was in there. But you know, Shadour, Shadour is really, really good. Hey, Pops started well. Time to, hey, Coach, you must say, look here, son, no matter how bad things are, we always, we always speak positive. We always talk about the team. We don't never say I or me. It's always we and us.

38:18Shannon Sharpe:And, you know, hey, what coach is trying to do is coach trying to, you know, make sure we have that edge. And maybe there are some other teams that don't have to go through that process. They don't have to go through that. But we're not there. We haven't deserved that. We hadn't earned that right to be able to say, oh, he's good at this now. He's doing a politician. Oh, no. He...

38:39Chad Johnson:He know how to say the right thing, Ocho. Because, look, for me, he knows how to deflect, and he never makes it about himself. You know what I mean? He always makes it about the team and what the coach is trying to – what he's trying to – how he's trying to improve the culture for the Cleveland Browns. Now, we talk about it's been 30-some-odd years before they had a great quarterback, but I just don't think the Browns do a great job in developing quarterback. Yeah, they draft some pretty good ones, Ocho, and it's like, hell, you're pretty good. You just go out there. you're supposed to make magic happen versus really sitting down, being diligent, you know, with your quarterback and really, really developing him into a hell of a prospect or to a hell of an NFL player.

39:20Chad Johnson:So I just can't believe it's been that long, bro. You can't tell me that every quarterback that came through that ain't been worth it. You know what I mean?

39:28Shannon Sharpe:I mean, no. Like you said, Joe, they don't have to – when you're losing, Joe, it's like if my house is on fire Joe I don't have time to go through and get all the members get the pictures oh this is my wedding album oh this is my high school yearbook I just got to grab what I can grab and get the hell up out of there if this organization has been losing for a long period of time this is what I know as a head coach I ain't got a whole lot of time they not going to give me no time to develop these damn plans I got to get them running going right now Guess what? You saw what they did to Freddie K.

40:08Shannon Sharpe:You saw what they did to Hugh Jack. You saw what they did to a lot of the chud. You saw what they do. They're not giving you an opportunity to develop guys. You either win now or you get on. And the worst thing that can happen is that when you have a coach from somewhere else go in and have success, they look at, man, look what Mike Brayble did.

40:34Shannon Sharpe:Well, look at the pieces that Mike Grable had. Yeah. Look at the support that he gets from his head coach. Excuse me, from his owner. Y 'all don't support y 'all owners. Y 'all don't support y 'all coaches like that. Y 'all get them up out of there. Because you think you know more than the coach. Yeah. There's a reason why you've had 15 coaches. I mean, look up how many coaches they've had since Jimmy and Dee Haslam has owned that team. Damn. Greg Williams, gone. Hugh Jack, gone. Freddie K, gone. Kevin Stefanski, gone. And you talking about Kevin Stefanski was a two-time coach of the year. I just think he handled the situation bad last year, but I don't think he's a bad coach.

41:25Chad Johnson:When last time they had a playoff team, bro?

41:28Shannon Sharpe:Since Hammer was a hatchet. What? Yeah, you know how long you got to be the Hammer to make it a hatchet? Yeah. That long? They got a few, though. They got a few, Joe. Maybe Baker. 2018, 2019.

41:51Shannon Sharpe:They've had seven head coaches in 14 seasons. So you know what that means, Ocho? Two years, that's what you got. Now, that's seven. How many years does Stefanski last? He lasted like seven. So when you really knock it down, that's like one a year. Stefanski had to be like five to seven years. Yeah. So six coaches, so if you had seven in 14 years, knock his off. So now you're down to seven in eight years, seven to seven years. How you going to have success?

42:27Shannon Sharpe:Oh, they fired, okay, yeah, Pat Sherman. So basically eight coaches, because he got fired. So how am I going to develop something, Joe, when I'm worried about my job?

42:41Chad Johnson:Well, damn, your job will always be on the line. I'll show you on development. If you're just throwing guys out there hoping that y 'all win a game, hell, y 'all ain't, man, come on, man. Ownership ain't going to give you time to develop anyway. They not. They ain't going to give you time. They're going to give you one, maybe two years, knowing you don't have a quarterback for one angle be no if you don't have a quarterback you're not going away to begin with you might as well start right there and then owners GM's they want instant gratification huh it's like it's like putting something in the microwave and expecting it to come out right away that's not the way it works that's not the way it works in the NFL that's why you want to hit on those picks when you have those number one picks Baker Mayfield was supposed to hit Baker Mayfield was supposed to be the quarterback for the foreseeable future for 10 to 15 years.

43:24It didn't, it didn't pan out. Going to the right place is extremely important. If you're going number one, you have to be that great at your respective craft, be in the quarterback position to elevate everybody else around you. You have to, but nobody's ready. Nobody sees it. Nobody's polished to that magnitude to be able to go from college and come right now and turn a franchise around completely like that no especially not once they get film let's say you do have a successful rookie your uncle Joe once they got film on you man listen we see Joe you talk about I got a developer I

44:03Shannon Sharpe:got to be careful I got to be careful get my girls fillers I got to be careful getting the Botox a boo job in BBL because I might be getting the ready for somebody else I develop a quarterback and I don't even get to coach you when He fully developed. Now how am I looking, don't you, Joe?

44:18Chad Johnson:Well, I mean, if you're gonna get fire in hell, if he don't develop, you gotta put some time in, huh?

44:23Shannon Sharpe:I ain't gonna get a dog up for somebody else. How about that? I know you don't, hey, hey. I ain't get a dog up for nobody else, Joe. I'm sorry.

44:31Chad Johnson:Listen, listen. I know you don't wanna warm up the slot machine for somebody else to hit the jackpot. Yeah, exactly.

44:39Shannon Sharpe:He done came behind me, Joe done put$100 ,000 in there. And all of a sudden, somebody sitting down there put one quarter there. And it's just spitting out money.

44:49Chad Johnson:Yeah, yeah. Hey, man, you got to find a way, man. They can't keep drafting these guys. Ocho, this is all I'm saying. The Browns can't keep drafting these guys and hoping that they paying out. Man, you got to put some time in with these dudes.

45:02Shannon Sharpe:Well, tell them upstairs that. Yeah, that's not the way you're awkward. to give the coach some time. Tell them to stop thinking they got this microwave society. See, it's the society, microwave society. Because we want everything instantaneous. Rip. I remember, we couldn't wait. You have to develop the picture. Now, guess what? They put the camera right on your phone. You can see it right now.

45:27Chad Johnson:Yes, sir.

45:28Shannon Sharpe:Even the Polaroid. The Polaroid was instant. You had to wave it, Joe. You just couldn't sit there. You had to wave that thing. Speed up the process. because they ain't say nothing about waving it. They say, take the picture and hold it. What we do. It wasn't good enough to go to the drugstore and get the film developed. We couldn't wait a day or two. They say, you know what? We're going to give y 'all exactly what y 'all want. Y 'all want right now. Click. There you go. And then you can send it. Yep.

45:59Chad Johnson:Yeah.

45:59Shannon Sharpe:That's what we, this is what our society has morphed into. And so, obviously, football is a microcosm of society. Whatever you see, we're just a microcosm of society. Because you got black, white, Hispanic. You got a lot. You got, you know, Christian, Methodist, Protestant. You got Muslim. You got a smorgasbord. That's what society is. That's what a football team is. And a lot of the same thoughts, it's just natural that you have them. I just don't get it. You would think after a while, say, you know what? We've tried it that way.

46:43Shannon Sharpe:My grandfather, you tell my brother that. He said, okay, now see? Now the way I told you to do it, you ain't want to listen to me. Now you done did it your way. Now we're going to do it my way. Jimmy and D, you done tried it your way. You ain't never tried it anybody else's way.

46:59I

47:03Shannon Sharpe:should do it with lights out today 17 to 25 three touchdowns zero interceptions Deshaun Watson 11 of 16 one touchdown two interceptions Dylan Gabriel two of six two touchdowns zero interceptions and Green did not get any snaps damn guess what I know a guy, Ocho. You told me, but anyway, I know a guy who didn't play Lights Out. Let's take a look at this video, and you tell me what you think, Ocho.

47:40Shannon Sharpe:Oh. I'll give you one. Who was that, Ocho? That was Juju.

47:50Shannon Sharpe:But you all up in the car.

47:55with them break hands he took his ass out the ball try to get him feet in ah you got to secure that thing baby secure that thing baby hey it don't matter what you get 12 you get 12 feet in watch the watch that lady hey watch watch the laces baby you got to bring that thing all the way in if you ain't got the ball oh huh that's why that's what i said i said bring the ball in first have awareness where you at use your proof of your vision to see see where the line's at boom and catch that thing first.

48:23Shannon Sharpe:Don't you know that, don't you come out on that speed out? You know where you are. You know if you need to toe tap, you know if you need to drag. He ain't need to do none of that. Yeah. Run that back. Rerack that. Let me show you what I'm talking about. He ain't got to do nothing but catch the damn football. He ain't got to do no toe tap. Pa-pa. Look it. Yeah. Yeah. I can see if he right there on the left. He got to drag. No, that's easy. That's what you put in your pocket. I put that in my back pocket, Joe. Yeah. Little lazy hands right there. Lazy hands. Hey, hey, hey, hey. We been talking about this Ocho.

49:02Shannon Sharpe:Now look here. That's been his M.O. since he's gotten the league. What's been his M.O., Ocho? D-R-O-P-S. Yeah, too many drops. Too many drops. Too many drops. We got to get that together.

49:16Chad Johnson:You got to get that one. You know what? Matter of fact, especially this year, we got to get it together. We got a lot of somebody got a completion because of that. Hey, we got a lot on the line, boy.

49:27Shannon Sharpe:Somebody would have been 18 or 25 or 24. Somebody would have been 18 or 24. Or somebody would have been 12 or 15. Or somebody would have been 3 or 5. That's all I know. I don't know anything else. That's what I know. Somebody got an incompletion because of that. See, that's on mine. You see that tracker?

49:51Shannon Sharpe:I put that in my back.

49:55Hey, hey, Joe. Hey, Joe, I used to be statching things, Joe, with one eye, boy.

50:05Chad Johnson:I'm talking about that thing on the money, too.

That right there, here, ball coming over my shoulder. I don't even want to get Buddy behind me. I'm here with it. Cause I, this, he could do that. I don't want to feel you.

54:49Shannon Sharpe:Me, I just thought, I don't know. Maybe it's just me. Maybe it was the way. I just thought practice was harder than the game.

54:57Chad Johnson:It was supposed to be.

54:59Shannon Sharpe:because they know you'll chop, Ocho. How many times them guys done see you run around, Ocho? They know if you chop, they already know. They know when you get ready to run that speed out, they know when you're like, hey, man, Ocho, Ocho, you ain't running no goal ball. You tried to get me to turn so you can run this dick where you throw the hand up like you're running the goal ball. Man, ain't nobody falling for that, Ocho. Yeah. Hey, Joe, he take our running, Ocho throw his hand up like he looking for the goal ball so he can run the comeback. back man ain't nobody biting for that don't you I'm gonna stay right here in your back pocket go ahead you know what I do like when they did cheat like that on they let's say they know what the route is they'll stay on my hip but they won't block the ball they'll let me make the catch yes because they were you know they they know the combinations especially when we go two by two they know if it's three by one I'm on the back side they know the slant is coming the slant of the hits I mean so they they they drive but they don't make the play because they know right Right.

55:57Shannon Sharpe:And that's how you should. And a lot of times, don't you know what it is? They don't look at the script. Yeah. You forget about they don't look at the script. Hey, that's a good one. That's a good one. That's a good one. That's a good one. That's a good one. That's right. I said, man, y 'all ain't no damn coaches putting the script down. Yeah. You got people thinking y 'all know. Because I know y 'all, damn good, you don't script in the game. Mm-mm. Mm-mm. You got to play honest. Man, but those guys, man, I had Ronnie Bradford. I had Tony Bealem. I had Dedrick Dodge. Man, they made me work. Yeah.

56:27Shannon Sharpe:They made me work. Hey, Sharp, you ready to get locked up today? It's time to go to jail. Oh, no, no. See, there y 'all go. Y 'all talking too much. Now y 'all talking crazy. Aiden, Aiden, Aiden.

56:39Chad Johnson:Hey, it's different. It's different when the defensive team or the scout team know all the plays. Yeah. It's just like in basketball. Hell, we in practice, Uncle Ocho. Guys shooting the screen. They cheating to play. I'm like, damn, you know the play coming. They setting the cross pick. the cross pick they already over there waiting for you to come over i'm like damn you know what i mean so i know exactly what you mean what hey they be cheating the plays in practice know all the play like damn but how what we supposed to do right i i like my favorite part on is when we get an opportunity to go with the ones and the first thing i say before we start if you see anything let me know let's talk about it leon hall uh tory jane delta o 'neill uh jeff burris i'm talking about I did as soon as I got there, every year, whoever our number one and two was, Jonathan, Joseph, listen, when we go through this, any indicators, anything you see me doing that gives something away, I need you to let me know.

57:37But I used to love going against them because they understood. They understood what they were looking for. I didn't care whether he knew what the play was. I didn't care whether he knew the route, the combinations, or the script was made for you to be, you know, take me out there, whatever it may have been. Just I need to have a conversation after every play just to make sure I'm always on point. Yeah.

58:01Shannon Sharpe:And then Deshaun media availability, this is what he had to say. I think y 'all took the wrong words out of that, saying that I think somebody asked Monken that, you know, that I'm not capable of playing like 2020. I never said that, I just said that I'm not going to be running guys over like I used to be when I was 24 years old. So I think I got to preserve the body as much as possible so I can be able to stay on the field. And I think that's one of the things talking about with the front office and coaching staff is don't take the unnecessary hits when I don't need to. So about as far as that, my instincts and the way I play, when I'm on the field, I just play ball and react.

58:42Chad Johnson:Yeah, hey, hey, them injuries, them injuries, pal, You gotta change your game. You can't play the same, you ain't got that same second, third gear that you used to have. You know what I mean? It's a big difference and as you age in professional sports you start to see that. You start to see, damn, my get up, get out ain't like it used to be five or seven years ago. Hey Joe, what you calling Joe that what? That get up and get out? You know you got some of them quarterbacks, Uncle Ocho, they fast like right now. That's how Deshaun Watson used to be. He's like Lamar Jackson. Soon as they take off, them dudes fast right away.
