00:00And I think this kid you've got now in DC, he's the same thing.

00:09I mean, you got rock stars everywhere, coaching players.

00:11It's crazy.

00:12Yeah.

00:13It's been interesting specifically with the coaching staff in Kingsbury.

00:17If you look back to Arizona, I mean, Cliff kind of got the job because of his track record

00:21with quarterbacks working with Baker Mayfield, working with Patrick Mahomes.

00:25He gets to Arizona, they draft Kyler Murray, Kyler Murray's rookie of the year.

00:29You know, they had, they built in Arizona under Cliff and they had a really good season

00:33in 21.

00:34I think they went 11 and 5, lost in the playoffs.

00:37But the following year, Kyler gets hurt.

00:39That thing just falls apart.

00:41And you're definitely right.

00:42There was some celebrity status.

00:43There was the viral photo of Cliff during COVID with that sick house and everything.

00:48Since he's been here, he's been very low key.

00:50He doesn't do a lot of interviews.

00:51He does kind of the media that all offensive coordinators are mandated by the league to

00:57do.

00:58But other than that, just kind of keeps it very low key.

01:00I think that's on purpose.

01:03He and Jaden have a really good relationship.

01:05The deep shot to Diami Brown yesterday, the touchdown throw, was actually Jaden asked

01:11Cliff if he could check to it and Cliff's like, hell yeah, man, go for it.

01:15And I think those two going forward will be really well served and maybe Cliff's able

01:20to parlay that into another head coaching job down the road.

01:23But he doesn't seem interested or focused on that.

01:27Some of that is probably Arizona still paying him a whole lot of money because he got the

01:31contract extension.

01:33So he's able to just really enjoy working with his rookie quarterback and seeing his

01:38name and profile bolt back up.

01:41I got a minute left, respectfully.

01:43I got to ask you, when you were watching Deshaun Watson yesterday, how bad did you think he

01:48sucked?

01:49And did you ever think, man, this guy, he just doesn't matter anymore.

01:54He's like finished.

01:55He seemed disinterested, frankly.

01:59After he took a couple of big hits on a scramble, Mikey Sammer still is a rookie out of Michigan

02:03game with good pop.

02:05I don't know if you've seen it.

02:06Go find this fourth down play where the play comes in from the sideline and Watson just

02:12kind of jogs off.

02:13Now maybe they had 12 on the field or something, but I don't know what happened there.

02:17Yeah, I saw it.

02:19He's that offense completely broken.

02:21I think you saw Washington be pretty aggressive on fourth downs offensively because they had

02:26zero concern of giving the ball back to Cleveland.

02:29And to me, if you're actually trying to win games, you got to go to Jameis, but that Brown

02:34situation with bad ownership and toxicity, I'm glad I'm out of that world in D.C.
