ITPV » Jarvis Landry’s not worried about the Browns bickering.

SHAKER HEIGHTS Nick Bosa Jersey , Ohio (AP) — The splashy wide receiver said Friday he doesn’t believe recent harsh comments quarterback Baker Mayfield made about disgruntled running back Duke Johnson will affect chemistry for a Cleveland team dealing with high expectations.“It’s a non-issue,” Landry said while hosting his youth camp at Shaker Heights High School.As Landry spoke, Browns owner Jimmy Haslam watched from high in the bleachers and general manager John Dorsey was on the field watching drills under gorgeous, blue skies and in cool, football-season-like temperatures.Last week, Mayfield, who set the NFL rookie record for touchdown passes last season, was critical of Johnson, who demanded a trade and skipped Cleveland’s voluntary workouts after learning Dorsey shopped him around after signing free agent Kareem Hunt.Mayfield called Johnson’s situation “self-inflicted” and stressed the back has “got to do his job” as long as he’s with the Browns.On Thursday L.J. Collier Jersey , NFL Network, citing multiple sources, reported that several Browns players approached Mayfield in the locker room to voice their displeasure about his comments and any differences were “hashed out.”Landry dismissed the report and believes Mayfield and Johnson can still work together despite any differences.“I don’t think it would be difficult at all,” Landry said. “It’s a non-issue, and it’s not one that we are feeling any particular way about. It’s something that is being blown up from (the media) more than it really is.”The Browns are facing new scrutiny following a busy offseason in which they acquired star receiver Odell Beckham Jr., Landry’s former LSU teammate and close friend. The Browns have become fashionable, and with that comes extra attention.“That’s a part of this story. That’s a part of everything that we’re trying to accomplish,” said Landry, who had 81 catches for 976 yards and four TDs in his first season with Cleveland. “We’re going to have to work through those things. The best way to tell the foundation of something is internally. If we stay strong and continue to trust each other Marquise Blair Jersey , continue to build on our relationship, our chemistry, we’ll be fine.” Matt Patricia has appeared to push the Detroit Lions more than they ever were under Jim Caldwell.The Lions seemed to run more and hit more. And, they may have gotten yelled at more.On the practice field over the last several weeks, it wasn’t hard to see or hear Patricia.The burly man with a bushy beard and a pencil over his right ear moves around a lot, spending time with various position groups during drills to share his expertise on both sides of the ball. He shouts to get his point across at times, including once when he didn’t like the pace in which players were moving from one field to another.How does Patricia avoid overloading his players?“Probably in the end you really don’t know until after the game, unfortunately,” Patricia said recently. “But you try to do a good job of gauging your players and how they’re handling the week. And obviously there’s a constant communication with the players to say D.K. Metcalf Jersey , ‘Are we good on this? Do you think we need more? Do we need to cut back? Do we need to scale back from that standpoint?’“I would say it’s always the biggest challenge early in the season because you’re kind of just really getting into that mode for the first time.”And for the first time, Patricia will be an NFL head coach in a game that counts Monday night in Detroit against the New York Jets .The 43-year-old Patricia declined to share his emotions entering a big day in his life, keeping people guessing, much like his mentor has done for years. He was on Bill Belichick’s staff for 14 seasons, serving as his defensive coordinator the last six years.Many years earlier, Patricia began his path to leading a team in the league by matching wits with buddies while playing electric football. Patricia, who is from Sherrill, New York, would set up miniature players on a vibrating Cody Barton Jersey , metal field to face off with friends in games that would continue for weeks.“I knew at a very young age the strategic part of the game was something that I just loved,” Patricia said when he was hired in February.When the Lions hired general manager Bob Quinn two-plus years ago, the former Patriots executive chose to keep Caldwell in 2016 and gave him a contract extension the next year. Quinn had his eye on Patricia over the last two years and cleared a path for them to reunite by firing Caldwell after last season’s 9-7 mark wasn’t good enough to put the team in the playoffs.Even if Detroit got into the postseason and lost, Caldwell might’ve been replaced by Patricia.Soon after New England lost in the Super Bowl, the Lions landed the coach they wanted by hiring Patricia, who earlier had other suitors.Detroit’s players liked playing for Caldwell. His cool and calm ways were respected and they appreciated that he cared about them off the field. They found out quickly Patricia was bringing a change of pace: a demonstrative and louder leader.“The way he came in just set the tone right away,” Lions linebacker Jarrad Davis said. “He came in, he laid down the law. He gave us the rules and he came in with energy.”No one in the NFL is really sure what a Patricia-led team will look like because what he showed in the preseason is not expected to be anything like what he’ll do in Week 1 against the Jets. Especially with New York starting a rookie quarterback, Sam Darnold.Jets coach Todd Bowles http://www.cardinalsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-zach-allen-jersey , though, knows what Patricia’s defenses looked like with the Patriots.“They’re always very smart,” Bowles said. “They’re always very tough-minded, and the execution and fundamentals are outstanding. He’s brought that to New England, I’m sure he’s brought that to Detroit. They’ve always been tough. He’s handled us quite a few times, so we have our work cut out for us.”___
