CB Greg Newsome II talked about the high expectations Jim Schwartz has put on them, and how the defense has bought in.
Anytime there’s a big play, whether it’s a pass breakup, takeaway, or batted pass, you’ll see at least half the defense celebrating with the playmaker. It’s something that was important for Schwartz to get rolling immediately, even in that early first week’s worth of practices at the Greenbrier.
It was especially evident last week in two joint practices with the Philadelphia Eagles. Against the same team in joint practices a year ago, the Browns defense couldn’t contain Philly’s pass-catching corps of DeVonta Smith, AJ Brown and Dallas Goedert. “He has high expectations for us,” Newsome said. “He coaches us hard, but that’s because he has high expectations. So, when we set a standard for us as players and we’re not being to that standard, we expect our coaches to push us harder and harder. And with him, he’s going to coach us hard because he doesn’t think we should be a top-10 defense or a top-eight defense.
