Browns 23, Jaguars 13
KEVIN STEFANSKI: Some really good reps out there to teach off of. Wasn't always clean, but appreciate how the guys competed. Plus on in the turnover margin, as you know we making a big deal out of that. On the injury front I think you know we saw Mac, Wilson, Steve Carlson, and Kiondre got injured there in the game.
So I'll have more information tomorrow on those.
But I will take any questions you have.
Q. (No microphone.)
KEVIN STEFANSKI: Yeah, I think he did it last year, too, Dan. When his number is called he's been make plays going all the way back to last year. He's a dependable player. He shows consistency. Plays very hard. So I think he's having a nice camp.
Q. (No microphone.)
KEVIN STEFANSKI: Yeah, I think we had one sack in maybe 44 attempts, Tony. I thought protection was pretty good all in all. Thought the quarterbacks did the nice job getting the ball out of their hands in a timely fashion, but any time we have any of the QBs in there we're trying to keep them upright as much as we can.
Q. (No microphone.)
KEVIN STEFANSKI: One more time?
Q. (No microphone.)
KEVIN STEFANSKI: I thought just from my vantage point I thought they both competed. We have to look at it to see how was it. I know this: It's never perfect. Especially coming out of your first game, first time playing for GregBeen a long time for Greedy, bouncing back from that injury. I told him and Hub, to be out there in that this first game coming off injury, I thought that was a great testament to how those worked in the rehab.
Q. How about Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah? Kind of as advertised?
KEVIN STEFANSKI: I would say so. Yeah, that's what he's done in practice. He plays at a very high speed. He's switchy. He defeats blocks. So he did a nice job, and I know already there will be things he can improve.
Q. (No microphone.)
KEVIN STEFANSKI: Well, I think he worked really hard when he was out with Coach and Coach Bloom to make sure that he was caught up on the mental side, and then it's football, so when he's out there and they're keeping score and they're between the white lines, he's doing what he does.
Q. (No microphone.)
KEVIN STEFANSKI: Not that I'm aware of, Tony. Was it three points? Yeah.
Q. (No microphone.)
KEVIN STEFANSKI: Not for me. You know, this is a part of the process. We focus really on the work, and I thought the guys did a nice job competing out there. We got another one next week.
Q. (No microphone.)
KEVIN STEFANSKI: Yeah, did a nice job. Again, I think he's shown up in practice as well. Made the big points to the young guys especially. You got to take the practice field to the game field. I thought a lot of the guys did that.
Like I said, never perfect. Always things to clean up. Demetric had a couple nice moments there.
Q. (No microphone.)
KEVIN STEFANSKI: Yeah, you got to have a plan when you're rushing. I thought the guys did a nice job. We have to apply pressure to the quarterback whether we rush, four, five, six. Doesn't matter. I thought the guys did a nice job overall.
But rush plans I think were pretty on pointe.
Q. (No microphone.)
KEVIN STEFANSKI: No, he's a great player. But, no, I can't say I watched him too closely.
Q. (No microphone.)
KEVIN STEFANSKI: I don't think it's effortless, Tony. I know what you're saying. He really hard, Tony. I think he was excited to play. As you know, he loves this game.
So to see him out there and operate and having Baker there to support him and having Kyle come in, I thought that was a really nice job of that room in general to take charge and lead this team up and down.
Was it perfect? No. But pleased overall with how those guys operated.
Q. (No microphone.)
KEVIN STEFANSKI: No.
Q. (No microphone.)
KEVIN STEFANSKI: No.
Q. (Regarding play calling.)
KEVIN STEFANSKI: What's that?
Q. (Regarding play callings.)
KEVIN STEFANSKI: Yes, and I'm not going to get into who it was, Tony. As you know, as I've said before, it's an extremely collaborative process. While one person may be calling it, everybody is very much involved.
