1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,640 Speaker 1: Hey, what's up everybody? Welcome in to a Monday edition 2 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:08,080 Speaker 1: of Texans All Acts as glad you are with me. 3 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:12,080 Speaker 1: I am your host, John Harris, Football Anas sideline reporter 4 00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:15,640 Speaker 1: for your Houston Texans. A little bit, a little bit weary, 5 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: I will admit a lot of hours of radio today 6 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:24,759 Speaker 1: after getting back from Cleveland yesterday and unfortunately coming home 7 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 1: with an L one twenty one missfield go at the end, 8 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 1: could have made thirty and twenty fourth opportunity and it's 9 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,159 Speaker 1: like kick because you're right at the two minute warning 10 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,200 Speaker 1: you were gonna have to do with out of time out. 11 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:39,279 Speaker 1: So yeah, tough one. Good things to take out of it, 12 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 1: many good things to take, but unfortunately, too many mistakes. 13 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: Interception led the three points, fumble led the seven, tackling 14 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: in the second half, not great mistakes offensively throughout the 15 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: second half. So it didn't play clean enough to beat 16 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: a very, very good team. And unfortunately the injuries also 17 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: piled up. So let's get into tonight's show. We're gonna 18 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 1: hear from Andrea where here in just a second. But 19 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 1: because it's Game Week Thursday, Oh god, I can't believe 20 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: I'm doing this. It's Game Week Thursday. Even though it's Monday, 21 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 1: the injury report came out. Now it's very important to 22 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: note today the September twentieth injury report for the Texans 23 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: and Panthers are only an estimation of a player's participation 24 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: if there were full practices. So we had four players 25 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: on the DNP list one well, I mean all these, 26 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: I think you can anticipate wide receiver Danny A. Mandola, 27 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor. I think they ended up going out on 28 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: the same play on Tyrod's rushed to the end zone, 29 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: so they went out. Terrence Mitchell at some point when 30 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: he was playing rolled up cover two. I think it 31 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: was Austin Hooper through Hooper the ball at the flat 32 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: and Terrence Hooper turned around. Terrence caught him right out 33 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 1: of the thigh, but he also took the brunt of 34 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 1: that on shoulder and neck. So he was being evaluated 35 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: for a concussion at that point. So if he's in 36 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: the concussion protocol, which appears he is in now, I 37 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: don't think he'll be able to play Thursday. That's just 38 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: from past experience. If you go in the cussion protocol, 39 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: I don't think you can get to a Thursday game. 40 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 1: So you've got that and the last one is Nico Collins. 41 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: And there's a little bit of news apparently about Nico Collins. 42 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:42,519 Speaker 1: This came out some point on Monday that he is 43 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: going to be out three to four weeks with that 44 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: shoulder injury. He caught that first plant, that first pass, 45 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: little glance route up the middle and showed everything. Boy 46 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: he was I mean, he was hauling. Denzel Ward is 47 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,080 Speaker 1: one of the fastest guys in the NFL able to 48 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,239 Speaker 1: catch him. He was about the only guy that could 49 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: have caught him, I think, and then when he tackled him, 50 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: landing on his shoulder. And it looks like it's going 51 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: to be three to four weeks that Nico Collins is 52 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: going to be out. Now three to four weeks, that 53 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: probably is an IR stint because you can come off 54 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: IR after three weeks. So if the three to four 55 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,839 Speaker 1: weeks is accurate, then okay, three to four weeks might 56 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:29,559 Speaker 1: be an IR trip. We'll see, but that's what's being reported. 57 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,399 Speaker 1: That's not anything that Texas will ever put out there 58 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:37,119 Speaker 1: other than if he goes in IR. And we'll see 59 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: whether that ends up being the case for Nico Collins. 60 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: But DNPS where damn Dola, Nico Collins, Terrence Mitchell, Trod Taylor, 61 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor, limited participants both dealing with knee issues, Camu 62 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: Grugier Hill and Justin Reid. Those two guys were fantastic defensively, 63 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: they were fantastic. Now there are other guys that went 64 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: out of that game, Charles A. Manner who had him 65 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: on when he came out, right Opez when he came out. 66 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: They're not listed on the injury report. Again, this is 67 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: just an estimate. The official report status report will come out, 68 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:16,599 Speaker 1: I believe on Wednesday, So it's not twenty one guys 69 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: on the injury report like it was going into in 70 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: Cincinnati in twenty seventeen, but six is enough now. On 71 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: the Panthers side, again it's an estimate, but starting guard 72 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 1: Pat elf Line and defensive tour Grossmados, Grossmatos deal with 73 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: the ankle. Padelf Line deal at hamstring. They did not participate. 74 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 1: Limited participants, Camera Ving Morgan, Fox, full participants, Dennis Daily, Taylor, Mutan, Giovanni, Ricci, 75 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: Tommy Tremble. Those are probably guys that got nicked up 76 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: a little bit on Sunday. They were in the full 77 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: participant category. So from the looks of it. I guess 78 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: you would say Carolina are relatively healthy versus the Texans. 79 00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: But's it's degrees of or shades of color, if you will. 80 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 1: There's not a whole lot difference going into a Thursday game. 81 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: Panthers will travel obviously, and Wednesday played the game seven 82 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: twenty against the Panthers on Thursday evening. All right, let's 83 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: dive in with our good friend Andre Ware, who has 84 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: got double duty as in Thursday night Friday night games. 85 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: But we talked to him and started with yesterday's game 86 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: against the Browns. Torey, how are you feeling a day 87 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 1: later on a short week heading into the Carolina game. Yeah, 88 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: I was just thinking about what went on yesterday, and 89 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 1: you know, just unfortunate you lose to Rod Taylor for 90 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. I guess I would imagine a 91 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: couple of weeks that's twas take. It's about how long 92 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: it's taken me at times when I've got hamstring injuries. 93 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: So just to lose him period for any significant amount 94 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: of time, because you go back and start replaying that 95 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: game in your head, and they were right, they were 96 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 1: in it, and defense was playing well, offense was moving 97 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: the football consistently matching points and then that happens. It's 98 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: just tough, tough pill to swallow knowing that you got 99 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: a quick turnaround, not just to Rod, but other players 100 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 1: that went down yesterday in the game. Who knows what 101 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 1: their available availability is going to be for Thursday night. 102 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,040 Speaker 1: And uh, but you got to strap it up and 103 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 1: get ready for a quick turnaround. Wait, tell me one 104 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: more time about hamstring injuries and your experience and how 105 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: it feels and how long it takes to get back. Well, 106 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,479 Speaker 1: the one thing I can tell you from experiences that 107 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: you can't try to come back to way too early 108 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: because it'll feel like it's ready. You can demnute, you can, 109 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,679 Speaker 1: you can run straight ahead, and then all of a sudden, 110 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 1: when you really try to push it, that's when it's 111 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: gonna grab. And when it grabs, it's like starting all 112 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: over again. So you've got to give it the necessary 113 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: amount of time. The resident, for you know, from my experiences, 114 00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: has been at least two weeks and some times longer 115 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,359 Speaker 1: than that. You know what that would mean, No Tyrode 116 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: of Buffalo, Yeah, which any of the team said, Tyrode, 117 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 1: I would imagine wants to wants to go up and 118 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 1: play well against I mean Dre For these six quarters 119 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: that Tyrod has played for the Texans, from your expectation 120 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: going into the season, and what you saw in those 121 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: six quarters, how did it compare. He's surpassed what I 122 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: thought it was gonna This team has played better than 123 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 1: I thought they would play um and I said it 124 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 1: in the preseason, maybe even after the first preseason game. 125 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: Give credit to the coaching staff because it's a team 126 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: that's that's very well coached, ready to play. They no situations. 127 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: You can tell there are no bright lights where anybody's 128 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: they're not seeing anything that they haven't thought they were 129 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: going to see during the week's worth of preparation and practice. 130 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 1: And so when you can when you when you're that way, 131 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: when when that happens, it allows you to play fast, 132 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: allows you to get to spots even if you know 133 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 1: you're not a guy running four to six plays at 134 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: four or five four four, because you know where to 135 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: go and how fast to get there and what's expected. 136 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: And so I think it's a credit to the staff 137 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: for bringing a bunch of guys together on a bunch 138 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: of one year contracts and all of a sudden, they're competitive, Drey, 139 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: what are we looking at with Davis Mills here? A 140 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: mixed bag yesterday, but definitely some bright spots and the 141 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 1: touchdown Pastor Cook. Sure, but there were some other throws 142 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: and they've got limited time to get him ready. He 143 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:40,560 Speaker 1: doesn't have any real full speed type practicing this week 144 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 1: because it's such a short week. They'll do some walk 145 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 1: through stuff, they'll do a little bit of throwing him, sure, 146 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: but it's gonna be tough, and you don't really know 147 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: who's available yet and hopefully you get enough bodies out 148 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 1: there to put together a good game plan. What are 149 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:53,680 Speaker 1: you expecting from him and what did you make of 150 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: his performance yesterday? Well, I expect some ebbs and flows, 151 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: some ups and downs where you know he's gonna look 152 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: good at times and he's gonna look like a rookie 153 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: at times. And that's just the nature of what happens. 154 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,839 Speaker 1: And that happened yesterday to him, where he started off 155 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: as a rough patch getting started and then finally kind 156 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: of settled in. I think he's gonna see a lot 157 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: of blitz. He's gonna see a lot of different looks 158 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: from Carolina that maybe he hadn't seen before, and with 159 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: a short week, it's tough to get all that stuff 160 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: digested and recognized where you can fully fully get yourself 161 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: in a mental state where you are prepared for because 162 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: there's gonna be something that he doesn't see that they 163 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:41,079 Speaker 1: haven't shown yet. And if you had experience, well maybe 164 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: in another game, Okay, we did this when we saw 165 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,079 Speaker 1: this look, and this is what I need to get 166 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: to and it's you know, you process it quickly. He's 167 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: not gonna have that that benefit on Thursday night. So 168 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: there's gonna be some ups and downs. Will he keep 169 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 1: the team in a competitive state? I think so, But 170 00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: others around him are certainly going to have to help 171 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: about it. All right, Trey, you haven't played the position. 172 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 1: This is my theory. I didn't really play the position, 173 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,959 Speaker 1: so I don't know. But I've just my experience with quarterbacks, 174 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: younger quarterbacks and experienced quarterbacks going into a game. Sometimes 175 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 1: it's sort of difficult to kind of work yourself into 176 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: a ladder. If you've got to throw a ball into 177 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: a tight spot early, sometimes you squeeze it you got 178 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: too much energy. I'm of a firm belief you throw 179 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 1: it deep early to kind of get all that energy out. 180 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,439 Speaker 1: Do you agree with that, and if so, why does 181 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:32,079 Speaker 1: that make sense? Totally agree? And until you get hit, 182 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: I think you know, even a run was when I 183 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:36,959 Speaker 1: got I kind of got settled into a game. So 184 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 1: different quit happens for quarterbacks in different ways. Is sometimes 185 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: it's a simple completion to get you going. This depends 186 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 1: on the game and it depends on the individual. But 187 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 1: you're right if if you get uncork one to get 188 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: all the butterflies out and all the adrenaline, where you 189 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: settle in faster. You just got to know each individual 190 00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 1: quarterback and how it works in that situation. But you're 191 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,320 Speaker 1: one hundred percent right in terms of just and I 192 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: think I honestly think Davis Mills is that way because 193 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: hegan went into yesterday's game wanting to dial a couple 194 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 1: up quickly, and so then adding not until he threw 195 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: a few incompletions down the field did he really settle 196 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 1: in and start to hit check downs and short to 197 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:24,559 Speaker 1: intermediate RUPs. Andre where joining us on Texans Monday. Stopping 198 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 1: the run obviously incredibly difficult. Yesterday, one fifty six on 199 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 1: the ground for the Cleveland Browns and three rushing touchdowns, 200 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 1: one of them by Mayfield. But that was tough. We 201 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 1: knew it would be and they got to do it 202 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: on Thursday. And now you have Christian McCaffrey coming in here, 203 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 1: and he's a very different kind of back. He is, 204 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: and he's kind of all of a little bit of everything. 205 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:53,319 Speaker 1: Some power, some speeds, some agility. He's got it all. 206 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: I mean, he is the complete back where he can 207 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 1: catch the ball out of the backfield, he can pass protect, 208 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: He is a three I'm back in every sense of 209 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 1: the word. And then you know, flashback to yesterday. They've 210 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: got two monsters in Chub and Hunt, and then you 211 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 1: throw a Demitric Felton into that mix and he's an 212 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: excellent change of pace. They've got the best running back 213 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,679 Speaker 1: situation in the league and that that's I don't know 214 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 1: that it's even close between them and anywhere else, but 215 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 1: it's impressive the roster that Cleveland's been able to put together, 216 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: the way they're starting to play, and I think they've 217 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: got a very very bright future in Cleveland if they can, 218 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: if they stay healthy, they're gonna be a tough out 219 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 1: dre The one thing that Mark and I talked a 220 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: little bit about was Phil Snow, defensive coordinator for the 221 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers. I don't know if in your college travels 222 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 1: you've come across the Phil, but he's spent a lot 223 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: of time in college and it shows in the defense 224 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: in sub sense. Now, I haven't gone all the way in, 225 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: but it feels like there's a lot more blitzing there 226 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 1: than the Texans have seen either of the first two weeks. 227 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: And it's Davis Mills presumably going to be the starter. 228 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: We don't know for sure. But if it is Davis 229 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: Mills as the starter, and you know that Caroline is 230 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: gonna be blitzing and bringing guys from different locations at 231 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: different times, what's the advice that you would have or 232 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 1: the coaching points you would give to Davis knowing full 233 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: well somebody's coming and there may be coming from someplace 234 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: you're not looking. What's the advice you would sort of 235 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,680 Speaker 1: give to him if you are going to see a 236 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: relatively blitz or you know, scheme diverse sort of thing 237 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: like you're gonna see from the Panthers. I get as 238 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 1: much blitz work as you can get this week, whether 239 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,680 Speaker 1: it's you know, full speed practices or however, they're going 240 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: to approach the short week, but mental reps, film study, 241 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: get you a blitz cut up of every blitz that 242 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 1: Carolina's run, and maybe go back to some stuff that 243 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: he may have done in college where you're trying to 244 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 1: get as much blitz information as you can because he 245 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: cannot take the kind of hit the Grant Delpit put 246 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: on him yesterday over and over again. We're gonna se 247 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: Jeff Driscoll quickly if that's the case. But you just 248 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 1: you cannot allow rushers to get to you know where 249 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 1: you're protected, get the ball out and know your hot read, 250 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 1: and you go back and you look at that there 251 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: is I'm not sure who the back was. Somebody leaked 252 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,839 Speaker 1: out and was open. If you stand and face the 253 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: blitz and deliver it at Rex Burkhead, If you stand 254 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: and face it and deliver it. The more you hit 255 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: plays against the blitz and they go for big yardage, 256 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 1: the more likely defenses are going to get out of 257 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: it because now they see they can't affect you. I 258 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: used to love it because I knew one on one 259 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: was somewhere. Find my best receiver and let's hey, let's 260 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: go make a play. I know I'm gonna get hit. 261 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: I gotta stand in and take it sometimes. But I 262 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: know I've got the best matchup right here. Let's protect 263 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: it up by myself a couple of a couple of 264 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: or split seconds by sliding away from the free rusher 265 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: and throw an accurate ball and give your receiver a chance. 266 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: He's gonna have to do that over and over because 267 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: he's going to see a bunch of blitz, especially early 268 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: in the game as as Carolina tries to take charge. 269 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: I just the road Taylor touchdown run again, and it's 270 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: so depressing because you can just see it happen almost 271 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: And yeah, and you guys were talking about Amandola running 272 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: his cover guy out of the back of the end zone, 273 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: just running him across to clear space. Did he get 274 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: hurt on that play too? Was that they both we 275 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 1: lost two hamstrings on one play? Yes? Wow, all right, 276 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 1: I'm just really feeling it this morning. I mean, you know, maybe, 277 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: and we're Texans Monday presented by Houston Methodist, and it's 278 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: it's probably like today. It's all the injuries and everything 279 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 1: that you have to get through. Andre Boy Tennessee pulled 280 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: one out at Seattle. I know we were in the air, 281 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 1: But I know we sort of reviewed that game later 282 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: and Johnny and I were talking about it. You know, 283 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: I feel I thought Derek Henry was the league's MVP 284 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 1: last year because of what he meant to that team 285 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: and what he meant to that team yesterday was on 286 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: display again for the world. Yeah. I think the first 287 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: week they may have tried to play with some new 288 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: toys and Julio Jones and the likes and throw it 289 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 1: around a little bit. But Ryan Tannehill, when you start 290 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: to mix Derrick Henry and who I think ran for 291 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: about one hundred and eighty two yards and three touchdowns 292 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: and then Tannehill through for three sixty something, it all 293 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 1: starts to work and starts to come together, and they 294 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 1: are a run first offense with Derrick Henry who. Why 295 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: would you ever get away from that? If you know 296 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 1: you have that type of talent and that ability and 297 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 1: who can get it done even when defenses know it's coming. 298 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 1: That makes the stuff on the outside that much easier 299 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 1: because you're gonna have the one on one matchups. And 300 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: Julio went for over one hundred yards receiving yesterday. So 301 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 1: they're a dangerous team when they figure out how to 302 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 1: use Derrick Henry in the right way. And I'm not 303 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: sure who the offensive coordinator is there, but he's figured 304 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: it out. It took him a week. He's like, hey, 305 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: let me get back to what was going on here 306 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: before before I took over, and it boded. Well. That's 307 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: a tough place to go, tough place to travel to 308 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: win a football game. It's a long way up the 309 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 1: Northwest to the Northwest, but it is. It's tough to 310 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 1: win there. It's loud, their twelfth man's always affecting things. 311 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: How do you do it the way Tennessee did it yesterday? 312 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 1: And I respect the team like the Browns so much 313 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: more for that dre the fact that Kevin Stefanski knows 314 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,880 Speaker 1: what his team is. He knows what it is. It's 315 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,119 Speaker 1: now we're gonna mess around and get Baker throws. No, 316 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 1: it's Chubb and it's Hunt and they run them twenty 317 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: five times in the game and they just pound on 318 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 1: you and they'll give you this. I'll give you this 319 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: as well. Think about it. Odell Beckham Junior, he's still 320 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:43,200 Speaker 1: out recovering from an ACL injury. Right Jarvis Landry caught 321 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,239 Speaker 1: one ball yesterday, went out of the game, so he 322 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: was unavailable and they still were able to produce. But 323 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 1: behind those three backs the two main ones, and obviously 324 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 1: Felton and he's big in the return game as well, 325 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 1: and then Richard Higgins re emerges along with Donovan People's Jones. 326 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 1: So it's a deep team, three outstanding tight ends, and 327 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 1: the offensive line is better than average. So you start 328 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 1: mixing all that stuff together along with what they have 329 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 1: on the defensive side. That's that's a good football team. 330 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 1: They went into Kansas City last week with a chance 331 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: to win it, and if the punter doesn't muff the punt, 332 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 1: they probably win that game. Trey, what do you think. 333 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 1: I don't know how much you got to see of it. 334 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: If you got to see the end of it that 335 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,159 Speaker 1: I hadn't seen it yet. Ravens Chiefs last night, your 336 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 1: guy Lamar getting a win for the Ravens. I mean 337 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,159 Speaker 1: that was just such a after losing that money night 338 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 1: game to the Raiders the way the Ravens lost it, 339 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 1: for the Ravens to win that game a back and 340 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,360 Speaker 1: forth in the second half, and for Lamar to get 341 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: that win and the Ravens to get that win. I 342 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 1: was to say about your Guylamar. It says a lot 343 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 1: about him that, you know, I knew he would bounce back. 344 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 1: I didn't know it would be this quick, having to 345 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: go to go on the road to Kansas City and 346 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 1: figure out a way to win there. But how about 347 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 1: John Harball. I mean, I just love the way the 348 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:04,239 Speaker 1: guy coaches h you sent a tremendous message to your 349 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 1: football team going for it on fourth down because you 350 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: knew if you give the ball back to Patrick Mahomes, 351 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: they're gonna drive down to kick a field goal. Yeah, 352 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 1: and he goes, hey, do you have anything left in 353 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: the tank to get me one yard? Absolutely, and put 354 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 1: it right at the square on the shoulders of number eight. 355 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: And he delivered. And so I just wish more coaches 356 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,159 Speaker 1: took that approach because, and you guys have heard me 357 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 1: say this over and over. I do college games on Saturdays, 358 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: and I see guys that are always looking to the 359 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 1: sideline and the coaches calling the play. Well, you're playing 360 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 1: a game with one hand tied behind your back. If 361 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: your guy on the field at quarterback can't see and 362 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 1: call and check in and out of plays and know 363 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,400 Speaker 1: the game well enough and know the game plan well enough, 364 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 1: then you're doing yourself a disservice. And when you when 365 00:19:57,040 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: you defer to them and allow them, hey, I see this, 366 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: let me let's get to this. And he gets and 367 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 1: he has that kind of trust. Lamar has earned that 368 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: kind of trust from John Harball to where it do 369 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: you want to go for it? How's what's the pulse 370 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: of the team? All that was going on in that 371 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 1: question of do you want to go for it? What's 372 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 1: the pulse of the offensive line, how are the guys 373 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,679 Speaker 1: in the huddle without calling time out? He gave him 374 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 1: an honor quivocally yes, and they went for it in 375 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,919 Speaker 1: the game. That was ballgame. So just hats off to 376 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 1: what they did last night. It was fun to see, 377 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: fun to watch from a quarterback, head coach standpoint, it 378 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: was brilliant. You know, these primetime games have been so entertaining. 379 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 1: Washington and the Giants on Thursday. I know they're not 380 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 1: great teams necessarily, but that was a really entertaining game. Yeah, 381 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: and you know you have tonight then the Texans on 382 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,920 Speaker 1: Thursday with the Panthers. If this thing doesn't come down 383 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,199 Speaker 1: to the wire, then everyone's gonna be really disappointed. So 384 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 1: I think we should all expect that kind of thing, 385 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 1: and it just boggles my mind. It doesn't really boggle 386 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 1: my mind, but it presses me about this league Andrea 387 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: that all the work that all these teams put in April, conditioning, 388 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: may OTAs June, whatever you do there, and training camp 389 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: and the weeks and the reps and everything and things 390 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:16,960 Speaker 1: come down to a sliver here and a sliver there. 391 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 1: It's a fascinating game that way. Yeah, play here and 392 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,679 Speaker 1: play there. Um as. One college coach who was at 393 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,120 Speaker 1: Florida states that they're two plays away from from being 394 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 1: being undefeated. Well, it's that way in the NFL for 395 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,640 Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of teams this morning that 396 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 1: that feel like there are a couple of plays away, 397 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 1: and they really are. I mean, look at Baltimore, they're 398 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: play away from being undefeated. Kansas City a couple of 399 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 1: plays away from being undefeated. And it's you know, the 400 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 1: talent level is just that close. I think the coaching 401 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:49,479 Speaker 1: is just that close. When you find good coaches are 402 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: a good staff, it's hard to beat them because the 403 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 1: talent is just so close across the board. But there 404 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 1: were You're right, the Monday nights and the Thursday night 405 00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 1: games have been entertaining to the first two weeks. And 406 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 1: I know this. I know the Texans will come out 407 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: with some adrenaline. It's Thursday night. They're the only show 408 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 1: on across the league. They will come out and play 409 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 1: an inspirational game. It's just got to be that way 410 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 1: for sixty minutes. And the Friday night and a Saturday 411 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: games have been pretty darn good too. You had a 412 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,120 Speaker 1: heck of a one Friday night raver UCF in Louisville. 413 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: But I love you having a Friday game because then 414 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:26,879 Speaker 1: we get to watch games together on Saturday. And we 415 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,640 Speaker 1: watched a lot of that Alabama Florida game and it's 416 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 1: been interesting to kind of see the fallout of a 417 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 1: of a loss for Alabama. Yes it was a win, 418 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: but the loss of it was so close. And a 419 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: lot of people have said, oh, look, there's not a 420 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 1: dominant team in college football this year. Ay, is that true? 421 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 1: And b if it is. If it is true that 422 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 1: there's no dominant team, is it making a more exciting 423 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 1: college football season? Or do we need to have a villain? 424 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:55,360 Speaker 1: Do we need to have a two thousand and two 425 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 1: Miami or a two thousand and three Oklahoma. It's just 426 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 1: dominating and everybody to see that team lose. How do 427 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 1: you look at the college football season thus fart right, Well, 428 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: they're as close to being as dominated, you know, a 429 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 1: dominating team as you possibly can get. They'd be in Alabama. 430 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 1: But I don't know if you guys remember this conversation 431 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 1: said was there's somebody out of the sec they could 432 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 1: be as surprise this year and so well off Florida 433 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 1: gets some consistent quarterback player, they could throw the ball 434 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:22,399 Speaker 1: a little bit. It could be the University of Florida 435 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,399 Speaker 1: because you know Dan Mullen. I like him as a 436 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 1: head coach and what he's done there. He has accumulated 437 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 1: a lot of talents, recruited well, and I just felt 438 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 1: like this was kind of this was going to be 439 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:33,919 Speaker 1: the year that they turned the corner. I don't think 440 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 1: they dropped in the AP after losing. They were number 441 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 1: eleven going into that game. I think they stayed at eleven, 442 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: and a couple of teams dropped Clemson and someone else 443 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 1: dropped after wins that were very very close wins this weekend. 444 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 1: But yeah, Alabama's got it rolling. I don't know if 445 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: somebody gets trips them up along the way, Auburn has 446 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 1: played an inspirational game on the road at Penn State 447 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:05,120 Speaker 1: where the Nitney Lions were able to seal one late. 448 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: That was a good entertaining and it's been some just 449 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 1: good overall football on Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. In the 450 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:15,360 Speaker 1: game that I had Friday night Louisville and UCF, that's 451 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 1: as entertaining a game as I might have done it 452 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: in a very very long time. So it's just some 453 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: good football being played across the board.

That was a tough one. They're all 479 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 1: tough to take, but that was a tough one because 480 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 1: it was a so called winnable game. They played well. 481 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: Your thoughts on what you saw yesterday, well, with respect 482 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: of your previous comments, the Emmys were yesterday, I'm not 483 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: an appropriate the listen it happens man from time to time. 484 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 1: My general thoughts are, this team is better than what 485 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: people thought they were to be able to still be 486 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: in contention against the team that went toe to toe 487 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 1: with the Kansas City Chiefs, who obviously showed up in 488 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl the last couple of years, short on 489 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: the short end last year. But the bottom line is 490 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 1: the fact that you're there among the top thirty two 491 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: is really impressive in back to back years in this 492 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: era that we're in right now. So that I hate 493 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: comparisons like that because there's so much water in between 494 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 1: when those events happening now, but I have to say 495 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: that I am impressed with the Texans ability to stay 496 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 1: in there against a really tough opponent who although they 497 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 1: were depleted a little bit on the offensive side of 498 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: the ball, by the sixty minutes of being over with 499 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,880 Speaker 1: they were they were down even more so They'll Beckham 500 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 1: of course, was out, and then they lost another started 501 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 1: wide receivers, so they were down, and I think when 502 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: Baker went, I mean, he didn't go out, but I 503 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 1: knew exactly when he hurt his arm that they weren't 504 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: going to go vertical downfield, and that's when they morphed 505 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,679 Speaker 1: into this juggernaut of a run game, which they always 506 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: have been. That one two punches. It's impressive. But I 507 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: was warning the Texans. I was just jumping up and down, man, saying, 508 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:29,920 Speaker 1: they're not going to go vertical, so you sell out 509 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 1: and defend the run. And as it turned out, that's 510 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 1: what stuck you in the end. I go zero coverage. 511 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:37,919 Speaker 1: I really would because if you look, I guarantee you 512 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: passed that first half, you wouldn't see a pass twenty 513 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,119 Speaker 1: yards or more down the field. Because Baker couldn't make 514 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: that throw. Everything was gonna be quick game screen. That's 515 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 1: how they got their yardage. So they were you know, 516 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 1: we stayed in some cover two Look, I take that 517 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,439 Speaker 1: extra body and put them down the line of scrimmage man, 518 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: and just sell out to stop the run because we 519 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 1: were getting displaced on the defensive front. By the end 520 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 1: of the game, guys were getting moved, and that was 521 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: the unfortunate part. I just would have been a little 522 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: bit more aggressive. Listen, but who am I sees are 523 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 1: the second guests, and I'm just impressed with their well competitiveness. Actually, Spencer, 524 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:11,880 Speaker 1: what you talked about the the run game, I don't 525 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 1: want to talk about hub and Hunt specifically. And obviously 526 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 1: we've been are off the ball long enough. We all 527 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: know that all the levers have to be working in 528 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,680 Speaker 1: the right direction. They got to have the offensive line 529 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: move some guys. But the punishment that those two seem 530 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 1: to exact on a defense, it felt like yesterday was 531 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,959 Speaker 1: kind of exhibit one two hundred and thirty four of 532 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,879 Speaker 1: the Browns running backs leaving a mark on defensive backs 533 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,199 Speaker 1: and that paying off in the fourth quarter. What's your 534 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: assessment of those two running backs individually and then as 535 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 1: a group and how much they give that team and identity. Well, 536 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: they're incredible, I mean, and when you combine that with 537 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 1: the fact that you have an offensive line, and if 538 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: you noticed when we tried to tackle, we were always engaged. 539 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: In other words, you're reaching. And when you're trying to 540 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 1: reach to stop someone who's running down hill at you, 541 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 1: that's two fifteen to twenty two twenty five. In some weeks, 542 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 1: those guys vacilate back and forth, but they're they're strong, 543 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: they're fast, and physics starts to work in their advantage. 544 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 1: But if you're actually being engaged by the by an 545 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,239 Speaker 1: offensive lineman, and you're trying to reach and stop one 546 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 1: of those guys. That's virtually impossible to do, and it's 547 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 1: it's almost impossible to do with smaller type backs, but 548 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: with big frame guys, the physics works against you. So 549 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 1: I noticed every time that we miss tackles. And to 550 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 1: your point about direction, directional calls for your listeners out there. 551 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 1: You know, when we talk about directions, we see stunts 552 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 1: and stuff all the time where guys try to confuse. 553 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 1: But when you decide to go left or right, you know, 554 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: whatever your terminology is, Louis Ringo, whatever you're doing, you 555 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 1: better make sure that you replace. In other words, if 556 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: everybody's going to go to the left, that person to 557 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: your right needs to move and replace you because the 558 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 1: run fits are absolutely critical. Otherwise your defense has no 559 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 1: integrity and anything can happen in this scheme that the 560 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns run because that because actually have the latitude 561 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,719 Speaker 1: to take multiple levels or pathways to get to the 562 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 1: next level. So anywhere along that line there could be 563 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 1: a matchup among the mini matchups that are taking place 564 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: that could scream, and it's up to an instinctive back 565 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 1: to determine where that it may be different every single series. 566 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 1: One guy may have an advantaged this series, another guard 567 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: may have an advantaged the next series, and then those 568 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 1: holes change. But the one thing that insulates you from 569 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,560 Speaker 1: that is to make sure you have your run fits 570 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 1: buttoned down. At least they have to run through more 571 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: than one body to get to the other end. Spencer 572 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,720 Speaker 1: Tillman joinning US right now in Texas Monday, So a 573 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 1: short week, Spencer, three days from now, you're going to 574 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 1: play the Carolina Panthers. What is it like for the team? 575 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: What do they need to do? What can they do 576 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: to get ready with such a short amount of time 577 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 1: to prepare? Well, it's a different challenge. Whereas this one 578 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: was a physical war of attrition. I think this is 579 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 1: going to be both to a lesser degree physical but mental. 580 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 1: You know, when you look at what job he has done, 581 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,600 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously he was the architect of even though 582 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 1: it's a different level, what he did with Joe Burrow 583 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: was absolutely amazing at LSU, went in the national championship. 584 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: Then of course Matt Rule gets the head coaching job 585 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: and then brings him immediately and you're you're seeing the 586 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 1: same kind of renaissance with Sam Darnold, Right, it's the 587 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 1: Jets are the ones that screw that up. This guy 588 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: was gifted in talent at USC We knew that. I 589 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 1: think he memory serves. He was like their third pick 590 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 1: overall in twenty and eighteen, so he's a tremendous talent. 591 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 1: They finally got him with the coordinator that is, marrying 592 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 1: his skill set with McCaffrey. And when you put all 593 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: of that together, it's a different kind of challenge. Right. 594 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 1: You obviously have to figure out what McCaffrey is at 595 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 1: all times, but beyond that, you've got to play the 596 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 1: types of coverages that had made um Lovey Smith the 597 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 1: great coordinator and a head coach oft times that he was, 598 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 1: and this has fallen into his will house. So I 599 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 1: don't suppect there to be any fall off from the 600 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 1: defensive side. It's really about tracking McCaffrey. Spencer. I want 601 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: to say that you maybe did a Davis Mills game 602 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 1: when he was back at Stanford. I don't put remember that, 603 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 1: but it feels like it makes sense either way. What 604 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 1: are your thoughts about the rookie quarterback what you saw 605 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,400 Speaker 1: yesterday once he got settled in obviously struggled early, but 606 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 1: he did make some throws once he got kind of 607 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,479 Speaker 1: settled in. What do you think of Davis when he 608 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 1: was coming out of Stanford and what do you think 609 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 1: of how he performed yesterday? Well, a great question. I 610 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: talked to David Shaw, his former head coach at Stanford 611 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, about him at length, and 612 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,120 Speaker 1: what I came away with is what everyone knew right 613 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: when you get him with your third round, pick your 614 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 1: first overall for the Texans. He's smart, he's intelligent. Now, 615 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:37,200 Speaker 1: what we saw yesterday was a guy who came in 616 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: obviously not getting the lion's share anywhere close to it 617 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 1: or near half or quarter of the first you know, 618 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 1: reps in practice situation at the next level, He's going 619 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 1: to be rusty, right, and the growing pains happened right 620 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 1: in front of our eyes. You know, he came out 621 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 1: opened up a couple of times on the wrong side. 622 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 1: Those were just mistakes. But you watched him mature as 623 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 1: the game came along. And I thought, Tim Kelly, this 624 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 1: started last year about weeks seven. I saw renaissance take place, 625 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 1: and the way he calls and designs plays, Kim Kelly 626 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 1: is one of the I would say a top five 627 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 1: play caller right now in this league because of his 628 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 1: engineering and his creativity to see, there's there's it's more 629 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 1: than just putting in plays. There are three components to it. 630 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 1: You have to teach them, show them, and then you 631 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 1: got to get them to do it though, and some 632 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 1: of that goes to the position coaches, but just to 633 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 1: have the capacity to come up with those twin packages 634 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 1: and those scrapes and those rubs, you know, reminiscent of 635 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: what we saw with Seattle and the Patriots made Malcolm 636 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 1: Butler a hero and that Super Bowl, that same defensive 637 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 1: look is what allowed them to get that touchdown, you know, 638 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 1: with cooks and underneath and I don't know exactly who 639 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: was in that inside position, but whoever was it was 640 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 1: the screen it may have been, I can't remember. It 641 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 1: was members escapes me right now. But really it's the 642 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 1: creativity that went into that designe and that has been 643 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:54,080 Speaker 1: consistent since about week eight from last year. And we'll 644 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 1: tell you something. Tim Kelly is a bright guy. Man. 645 00:33:55,960 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 1: He's I reserved comment to say much until about maybe 646 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: I'm seventy five to eighty percent sure, But after about 647 00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 1: almost a year of worth of games, He's gone to 648 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 1: another level in his creativity, and I'm impressed by that. Spencer. 649 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:13,359 Speaker 1: What do you have this weekend on the college circuit. Well, 650 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,840 Speaker 1: I've got the Hawk guys. They slowly put together a 651 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 1: pretty good, dominant kind of record with everybody you know, 652 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 1: focused on Ohio State's trouble, and so we'll we'll see 653 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 1: Ohio State got to win over a game Tulsa team 654 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:26,240 Speaker 1: last week, and so that I was impressive to see 655 00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 1: coach Ryan Day and navigate. But I've got Iowa Kirk 656 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: Parents the longest tenure coach in college football. If he 657 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 1: can continue to rise. Why do you think ference has 658 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 1: stayed there so long? I mean NFL rumors were coming 659 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 1: up in the earlier days or in earlier times, But 660 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,360 Speaker 1: there he is now. I kind of like that he's there, Spencer. 661 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 1: I kind of like guys to stick around for a 662 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,399 Speaker 1: long time, because you know, Richard Justice used to say 663 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:55,759 Speaker 1: coaches run from happiness sometimes. I love that line, and 664 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:59,720 Speaker 1: it's I think it's very true in many instances, especially 665 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 1: in at the college level, when you have a good situation, 666 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:05,080 Speaker 1: why mess it up? Yeah? I agree with that one 667 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,239 Speaker 1: hundred percent. And I will say this really quickly that 668 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: I think the sentiments in Middle America, the flyover states 669 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:13,439 Speaker 1: are a little bit different than they are another place 670 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 1: that hunker and hanker for success. There's a short lease. 671 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 1: And I remember Steve Spurreit telling me once and I 672 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 1: never get too close to my assistants because I may 673 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,359 Speaker 1: have to firm one day. And there there's some truth 674 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 1: to that too. But Kirk Ference is in a situation 675 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:29,759 Speaker 1: kind of the antithesis of what or in some ways 676 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,400 Speaker 1: similar to Nick Saban, and that the sensibilities are different 677 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 1: in the Deep South, and Nick Saban can get away 678 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,479 Speaker 1: with things in terms of his coaching approach that would 679 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 1: never fly on the West Coast. They just simply wouldn't. 680 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:42,320 Speaker 1: The sensibilities are different. Kirk Ferrence is right in the 681 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:46,600 Speaker 1: middle of that. They change is slow. The sensibilities of 682 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: people are different there, and if you can get your 683 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 1: hooks in and you're winning average eight nine ten wins 684 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 1: a year, there's no reason for that they're going to change. 685 00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:57,000 Speaker 1: And they're slow to change, I mean very Outgast could 686 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: have stated Wisconsin for however long he wanted to stay 687 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: there again because of the region of the country that 688 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 1: you're in, so Cinniments have a lot to do with 689 00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 1: regionality has a lot to do it, and values ultimately 690 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: have more to do with it. There is Spencer Tillman. 691 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 1: You can see him Saturday covering college football for Fox. 692 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,360 Speaker 1: You can see him on Inside the Game on Saturday 693 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 1: Night covering the game for us.

Bears win in a wild 713 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: sort of fourth quarter. They got up twenty to three. 714 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:37,840 Speaker 1: Then it felt like they were trying to give the 715 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 1: game away as the Bengals intercepted a pass Joe Burrow 716 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,800 Speaker 1: gets in the end zone, but to no avail. Bears 717 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 1: win twenty to seventeen. That moves both teams to one 718 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 1: and one.

The Niners a East coast relatively spell 746 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 1: midwest East coast trip where then stay at the Greenbrier. 747 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 1: They come out of there at two and o and 748 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 1: head home for Week three, the Raiders taking them the Steelers. 749 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 1: This a Greade nineteen seventies battle, and the Raiders coming 750 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:52,280 Speaker 1: off a Monday night man not a miracle, but Monday 751 00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:55,960 Speaker 1: night was wild and they won that game against the 752 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:58,479 Speaker 1: Ravens in overtime.
