Sean Payton on Cleveland Browns Star Defender: 'This Guy is Something Else'

  • last year
Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton doesn't think there's a player in the NFL affecting games the way Myles Garrett is doing for the Cleveland Browns.
Transcript
00:00 Yes, Sean. Your thoughts on Dorian Thompson-Robinson with his first start last week?
00:05 Yeah, look, I remember him because we watched a lot of him on film, you know, in the draft process.
00:09 You know, he's come in there. They do a great job with what they do offensively.
00:14 He's athletic. He's a guy that can stress you, you know, outside the pocket.
00:18 He's got a strong arm, and, you know, he's done what you want from a backup come in,
00:23 and the team has continued to win.
00:27 But certainly, there are some things that he does, like the ones before him,
00:33 even Deshaun, where you've got to be ready when plays extend.
00:37 Well, he lines up more left than right.
00:40 All right, so the challenge on the left side for us, obviously, is Garrett.
00:45 Yeah, he's having a season where I don't pay attention to awards,
00:52 but I've not seen a defensive player as impactful this season on tape,
00:58 and he's changing games.
01:02 So you have to have a protection plan. You have to understand where he is.
01:06 Now, he'll come over to the other side periodically,
01:09 and sometimes he'll line up inside and rush the center of guard.
01:13 But he's a dominant player, and not only on defense,
01:18 he's gone on field goal block and blocked the kick.
01:21 So this guy is something else.
