1 00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: Hello Texans, welcome to the show. We got a big 2 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 1: one for you tonight. Don't I say that because they're 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:10,879 Speaker 1: all big. Every game's big, every show's big. It's the season. 4 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:14,680 Speaker 1: The Texans, first place in the AFC South, playing the 5 00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: first place Detroit Lions from the NFC North, the Men 6 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: of the North, and this is the last NFC North 7 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:24,760 Speaker 1: team the Texans will be playing this year. It's the 8 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: best one a one lost crew. Mark Vandermin and John 9 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,319 Speaker 1: Harris with you and let's kick off the show. Oh 10 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: by the way, later on, Steven at a Goke Safety's coach. 11 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,599 Speaker 1: Really good guest. We're gonna have him on the program, 12 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,920 Speaker 1: so stay tuned for that. But first, the General John 13 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:43,920 Speaker 1: McClain joins us. Good evening, General. Here we go Sunday, Detroit. 14 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 2: It's on. How are you doing. 15 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 3: I'm doing great, Thank you. I I'm excited about this game. 16 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 3: I like watching the Lions, like Dan Campbell. You know 17 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 3: who doesn't like Dan Campbell. 18 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 4: If you don't like. 19 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 3: Him, it's because you haven't paid attention to him. The 20 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 3: Lions are where the Texans could be next year, where 21 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 3: they're a physical team to meet. Joe Mixon has been 22 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 3: their MVP, so far, they're running the ball so much 23 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,400 Speaker 3: better than last year. Last year in the back said 24 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 3: three touchdowns rushing all season. One of the reasons they 25 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 3: got mixing when they get to the red zone, specifically 26 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 3: inside the ten, they want to be able to run 27 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:30,039 Speaker 3: the ball better. He has five touchdowns rushing. So the 28 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 3: running game is so much better. It's eleventh and two 29 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,400 Speaker 3: years ago it was like next to last and so 30 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 3: they're doing that so well, and I would think for 31 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 3: a chance to win this game, they're gonna have to 32 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 3: run the ball well consistently, try to keep Jared Goff 33 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 3: on the sideline. But the one thing the defense has 34 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 3: done well for Detroit is played the run, and what 35 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 3: Detroit has not done well is rushed the passer. Since 36 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 3: a Nutchinson went out, he's still there, leading Sacker by five. 37 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 3: They don't have anybody other than the. 38 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 4: Newly acquired Sadarius Smith. 39 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, Smith, who had five sacks with Cleveland, which was 40 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 3: pretty impressive because they're behind all years. Not like you 41 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 3: got to tee off on anybody in the fourth quarter. 42 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 3: So as usual, it'll be about the protection, specifically up 43 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 3: the middle. Ken strout to have time to throw, and 44 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 3: of course Ken maxonim, run the ball and try to 45 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 3: control the clot. 46 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 5: Okay, General, finish these two sentences. Taking all that you said, 47 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,839 Speaker 5: and I want you to finish these two sentences. 48 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 2: The Texans will win this. 49 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 5: Game on Sunday night if the Lions will win this 50 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 5: game on Sunday night. 51 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 3: If the Texans will win this game on Sunday night, 52 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 3: if they can control the ball and finish with an 53 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 3: advantage and turnover differential, the Lions will win this game. 54 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 3: If they are the Lions. Jared has been the most 55 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 3: incredible quarterback in NFL history when it comes to completions 56 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 3: in their six game winning streak in which they're averaging 57 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,080 Speaker 3: thirty six points a game, and of course they have 58 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,399 Speaker 3: great balance with two guys on pace. Toy have over 59 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 3: a thousand yards, So they just got to play the 60 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 3: type of game they've been playing during their winning streak. 61 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 3: But I think the Texans have to force turnovers. They 62 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 3: have to get Jared Goff. He's only run like fourteen 63 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 3: times for eighteen yards, so they know where he's gonna be. 64 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 3: But the key is getting him because their offensive line 65 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 3: is the best in the NFL. 66 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 2: I'm going to rework one of those sentences. 67 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: If the Texans win this game, I think they will 68 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: have solved, or at least temporarily for the moment, solved 69 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 1: one of their biggest problems, which is past protection, absolutely, 70 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: because if they win this game, I think they've hit 71 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: on some big plays through the year, because we've seen 72 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: them run the ball well and even win the turnover 73 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: battle and not do as well as you want on 74 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: the scoreboard. But if they win this one, I think 75 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: they will have hit some big pass plays, and with 76 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: Nico Collins not practicing for two consecutive days, obviously you're 77 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 1: not optimistic about that, so they will have done it 78 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: without him, which I think is impressive general why, I 79 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 1: think it's one of the more perplexing things about this team. 80 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 1: They're running the ball well but not able to capitalize 81 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: on it with play action and things like that on 82 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 1: an often enough basis. 83 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 3: Because the past protection, specifically interior, has been so bad. 84 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 3: And you can tell that Stroud is missing some receivers 85 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 3: that he would have connected with in the past, and 86 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 3: that would be the way with any quarterback you keep 87 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 3: getting in. He's the most pressured quarterback in the NFL. 88 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 3: I would expect Bobby's slog now to adjust to when 89 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 3: that backfoot hits the ground, ball's got. 90 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 4: To come out. 91 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 3: Yes, he's got to hit the hot receiver on slot blizzes. 92 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 3: He's got the To me, you should throw some screens 93 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,799 Speaker 3: to take advantage of the rush. 94 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 4: Mixing would be great, arguing, while. 95 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 3: They would be great on screens if they're blocking, they're 96 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,239 Speaker 3: supposed to be blocking, and that's the key. They've tried 97 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 3: some and they haven't been blocking the way they should. 98 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 3: If you're a Texans fan, what should worry you is 99 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 3: you have now Kenyan Green's out. You know they could do. 100 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 3: They could play Kendrick Green. They could put Jack Patterson there. 101 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 3: They could move Titus Hour back to guard. They could 102 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,720 Speaker 3: play Blake Fishard right tackle. I don't see him coming 103 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 3: out standing just with one change and left guard unless 104 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 3: we see a philosophic change about you can't wait Letya 105 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 3: gets down the field. I was watching again. Somebody tweeted it, 106 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 3: and I've watched it over and over. That long touchdown 107 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 3: passed an eco, a drop back, perfect pocket and thinking, man, 108 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 3: oh man, what could they do if he could have 109 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 3: a pocket like Jared Goff And so I expect Slowy 110 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 3: to do a lot of things that are quick. Quick slants, 111 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 3: don't drop back five steps, don't go through a bunch 112 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 3: of progressions, and get the plays in quick the old 113 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 3: Kiss method, keep it simple, stupid. I like the way 114 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 3: they came out throwing the ball to try to keep 115 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 3: the Jets off balance, expecting Joe Mixon to run a 116 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 3: lot on first down and the Texans. The other thing is, 117 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 3: what have they not been doing at halftime. They've been 118 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 3: really good in the first half, off on the third 119 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 3: quarter bad in the second half. Teams are making adjustments, 120 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 3: they're not countering. And I can't wait to see what 121 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 3: they do against the Lions. And if they beat the Lions, 122 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 3: people are going to be really fired up about them again. 123 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 3: If they lose to the Lions, then they go their 124 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 3: third consecutive primetime game in Arlington, a game they im 125 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 3: guessing'll be favored in. And uh, and I look right now, 126 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 3: the AFC South is so bad it'll be an upset 127 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 3: if it don't sweep the division, and then that would 128 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 3: put you at nine and beat the Cowboys ten. Anything 129 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 3: else is gravy maybe Miami here, but uh, they could 130 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 3: if they could upset the Lions are three and a 131 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 3: half point favors. I think the league would look totally 132 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 3: different on them now than they are after the Judge debucle. 133 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 5: I have a better PC way of saying the kiss method. 134 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 5: Keep it simple, sunshine. 135 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: See they'll say stupid. See keep it simple, but word right. 136 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 2: I don't think so. 137 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: Actually, little kids, when my kid was about seven or eighty, said, 138 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: you said the S word, Yeah I did. 139 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 5: Oh stupid stupid? Yeah, yeah, that's call that the word 140 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 5: in theirs household too. They've heard a lot of S 141 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 5: words since, and it weren't stupid at that point. General, 142 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 5: we've talked a lot about the offense, the offense and 143 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 5: the offensive lie, et cetera. There's a chance that they're 144 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 5: higher probability that Will Anderson won't be out there, But 145 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 5: you more than likely we get his easy shier back, 146 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 5: You more than likely get Jimmy Ward back. Defensively, that's 147 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 5: obviously big key because that Lions offense can do it 148 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 5: both ways. They can do it through the through the air, 149 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 5: they can do it on the ground. They can do 150 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 5: their screens, they can do a catch and run, they 151 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 5: can do deep shots, they. 152 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 2: Can do a lot of different things. 153 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 5: But getting his z's and Jimmy back potentially, even though 154 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 5: Will might not be out there. 155 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 2: What's the impact of those two coming back potentially. 156 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 4: Well, it'll be tremendous to get him back. 157 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 3: Also, I'd like to see Derek Barnett back out there 158 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 3: because he can play. And Deniko Audrey had two sacks 159 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,959 Speaker 3: in the game, which shows he's back in football good 160 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 3: football shape now after his suspension. And you hate to 161 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 3: lose Will Anderson Junior at any time. I'd be stunned 162 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 3: if he plays in this game. No need throwing him 163 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 3: out there on a bad angle and because you don't 164 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 3: want to make it worse. And they've gotten good pressure 165 00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 3: on the quarterback and yet they're tied with the Jaguars 166 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 3: for allowing the most touchdown passing in the league nineteen 167 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 3: and so Golf likes throw the ball down the field 168 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,839 Speaker 3: because he gets good protection. As you mentioned, he has 169 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 3: great balance And I'm and Ross Saint Brown can't wait 170 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 3: to see if Stingley covers him most of the time 171 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 3: because Stingley's been. 172 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 4: Playing really, really well. 173 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 3: And uh so it's going to be fun to watch 174 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 3: this defense, which is number two in the league, going 175 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 3: up against this Detroit offense, which is outstanding for a 176 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 3: team averaging thirty six game for the last six games. 177 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: They're number two in the league, but not number two 178 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,719 Speaker 1: in points allowed, and I know that Demiko would rather 179 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:45,079 Speaker 1: have that be second points allowed. But they are doing 180 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: some things really well here on defense. They get pressure, 181 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: they get TFLs, they get after it. 182 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 2: Can they get the ball away from Detroit? 183 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 1: Can they knock the ball loose, pick it off, whatever 184 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: it takes to get some takeaways. 185 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 3: In his sixth game winning streak, Golf is completed eighty 186 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 3: four percent of his passes. That's unheard of, and he 187 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 3: has a chance to break Drew Brees' record for the 188 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 3: highest completion percentage. He only has fourteen touchdown passes. You 189 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,199 Speaker 3: think he had twenty. So every time you look up, 190 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 3: somebody's going deep. The key is you Nobody's been able 191 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 3: to do this. Stop the run. Put him in long 192 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 3: situations hoping that the guys can tee off on it. 193 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 3: But they run the ball so better you're not sure 194 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 3: what they're going to do. They'll run it on third 195 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 3: and three, where most teams will throw it on third 196 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:37,320 Speaker 3: and three, so they have great balance. And I think 197 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 3: the Texans can score on their defense if they just 198 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 3: give Stroud a modicum of time in the pocket. 199 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 1: People talking about, oh, GoF should enter the MVP conversation, 200 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: that's fine. The MVP conversation is what it is. But 201 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 1: to me, that entire offensive line should enter the MVP conversation. 202 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 1: Can you name an entire offensive line co MVPs of 203 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: the league? 204 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 3: I don't know why you couldn't figure enough base put 205 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 3: all five of them in there once, and it's been 206 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 3: great run blocking in past protection. You know, they signed 207 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 3: Kevin Zeitler as a free agent and. 208 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 4: They've been healthy. That's another thing. 209 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 2: Yep. 210 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 3: You know they got three former number ones in there, 211 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 3: and I think Zeidler wasn't he a number one? I 212 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 3: believe he was the number one when he came in 213 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 3: the NFL. So they've got talent up there, and and 214 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 3: that's why it bothers me. The Texans have you know, 215 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 3: Laramie counted two number ones, Titus number one, Juice number two, 216 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 3: Mason expensive free agent Kenyon Green was a number one. 217 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 3: You expect more from a group that they came that 218 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 3: high in the draft. And I'm not sure what the 219 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 3: difference is. And but the Texans will have to play 220 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 3: the kind of game they haven't played since the Cleveland 221 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 3: playoff game to beat the Lions. 222 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 5: Zeitler is a first round draft to ice yp Sincnati 223 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 5: Bengals back in two thousand and twelve, correct, twenty twelve. 224 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 5: That was Whitney merciless draft. I think Whitney was one 225 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 5: pick before that, right was he? 226 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 6: Yes? 227 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 2: I think so he's whate pick before that. 228 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 3: He's massed around now in his older age and he's 229 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 3: found home and playing really, really well. 230 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's done a really nice job that offensive line. 231 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 5: If you wanted to name one guy from that Detroit 232 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 5: offensive line, we know it's Pine Sool. 233 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 2: That guy's an absolute monster. 234 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:27,079 Speaker 5: Now he can't get beat on pass protection, and that's 235 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:28,959 Speaker 5: what the Texans got to hope as they can play 236 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 5: Jered goffin passing situations and maybe get some heat that way. General, 237 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 5: let's merge a couple of things our Sunday night game 238 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,679 Speaker 5: and the story that took place earlier this week. 239 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 2: In New Orleans. 240 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,439 Speaker 5: Dennis Allen is out as the New Orleans Saints head coach. 241 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 5: Is it a FATA complete that Detroit Lions defensive coordinator 242 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 5: Aaron Glenn will now move over and potentially become the 243 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 5: Saints head coach for twenty twenty five. 244 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 3: Potentially, potentially they may decide. You guys know how it 245 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 3: is you go from a defensive coordinator on an offensive coordinator. 246 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 3: Everybody's going to try to get Ben Johnson and the Lions. 247 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 4: He I don't know why he hadn't have taken. 248 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 3: A job yet, you know, And in Chicago they're all 249 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 3: talking about him coming to the Bears and taking over 250 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 3: that offense because you know, Maddieberflus will get fired defensive coach, 251 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 3: they'll go offensive as well. 252 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 4: So if you are a head. 253 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 3: Coach in candidate Aaron Aaron Glenn wants to be a 254 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:32,959 Speaker 3: head coach, and he knows everything about the Saints organization. 255 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,680 Speaker 3: But usually I'm just saying, usually you don't do the 256 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 3: same kind of coach back to back. Somebody just did 257 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 3: it in the league. I can't remember who it is, 258 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 3: but both it's about time that Dan Campbell lost both coordinators. 259 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, what about this? Aaron Glenn to the Jets where 260 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 2: he began his career, played really well built parcells among 261 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 2: the coaches he played for. Well, you'd have to fire 262 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 2: a head coach. Aaron Rodgers first true, Aaron Rodgers would 263 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 2: have to vacate his job as head coach of the 264 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 2: New York Check. 265 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 3: Would you want to go the jobs? There's only thirty 266 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 3: two of them, and you're like, Okay, I hear all 267 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 3: these stories, but I could handle it. But again, that's 268 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 3: solid defensive coordinator to an interim defensive coordinator to another 269 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 3: defensive coordinator. But you'd be better to be a head 270 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 3: coach as a defensive coordinator because he's not gonna bother 271 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 3: you as much. You know, if you're an offensive head 272 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 3: coach and you're calling the plays, you got to deal 273 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 3: with him on everything. 274 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 1: All right, Dallas plays the Eagles late windows Sunday. That's 275 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: the next opponent for the Texans a week from Monday 276 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 1: in Arlington. 277 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 2: Can't wait for that one. 278 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 1: And the Cowboys three and five going in with fire up, 279 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 1: Chips Cooper rush at quarterback. Thoughts of the Cowboys situation 280 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: and do they wait till the end of the season 281 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 1: for Mike McCarthy or does he have a chance to stay? 282 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 5: No? 283 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 3: Why would no? He's out, But why would you do 284 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 3: it during the season? He got Mike Zimmer. He's been terrible, 285 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 3: but he's got excuse. This is because of injuries. If 286 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 3: dan Quinn was still there, it would be a natural transition. 287 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 3: But Zimmer is getting pounded up there, and so I 288 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 3: think they'll stick with McCarthy. Only coach Jerry's fired during 289 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 3: the season was Wade Phillips, and so I think they'll 290 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 3: stick with him because they'll never say this. You know, 291 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 3: you're thinking I pick. You know they want I picked. 292 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 3: And nothing they do about Dak Prescott. I don't think 293 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 3: Dak will play again this year. You know, when hamstring 294 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 3: comes off the bone, I don't care if it's a 295 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 3: little or a lot. Remember when Dante Robinson tore it 296 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 3: off the bone and and he had to wait till 297 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 3: one was the hamstring was surgically repaired before he could 298 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 3: have his acl done. And so I'm thinking, why do 299 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 3: they need Dak back? Cooper Rush was I think four 300 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 3: and two as a starter three or four years ago. 301 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 3: I'm thinking Jerry's gonna want Trey Lansing there. He'll say, well, 302 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 3: we gave a four. We thought he could play. If 303 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 3: Rush dumbles it all, we're gonna see Trey Lance starting 304 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 3: for the Cowboys and their disaster. Their fans know it, 305 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 3: and they're looking forward to the draft and to see 306 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 3: who the next coach is? Is it gonna be Bill Belichick? 307 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 3: And Bill Belichick was praising Jason Light at Tampa, who 308 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 3: he used to work with in New England. Case Todd 309 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 3: Bowles is out, you know. Belichick and Mike Florio wrote 310 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 3: about this. Almost everything that comes out of his mouth 311 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 3: when it comes to certain teams, it looks like he's auditioning. 312 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, Shador Sanders and Dion Sanders are. 313 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 2: Going to Dallas. 314 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, let's see that it's going to Dallas. 315 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 5: We'll go to Dallas next week. But Cincinnati is going 316 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 5: to Baltimore on Thursday night. General, this is a save 317 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 5: your season kind of game for the Cincinnati Bengals, and 318 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 5: they've got a healthy Joe Burrow was in this game 319 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 5: last year that Joe Burrow was hurt and lost for 320 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 5: the rest of the year, turned into a Jake Browning 321 00:16:57,760 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 5: show the rest of the way. Do you give the 322 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 5: BEng a shot to get the five hundred tonight at 323 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 5: the Multimore. 324 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 3: Ravens, Yes, you got to give him a shot. But 325 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 3: and I saw I heard a great stat when I 326 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 3: came over to Energy Stadium today, and it was that 327 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 3: Burrow as an underdog of three or more is sixteen 328 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 3: and two. Whoa, and that is pretty good. But I 329 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 3: cannot see the Ravens losing four games at this point 330 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 3: of the season. I think the Ravens gonna win. They 331 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 3: have the best balance in the league, with Jackson playing 332 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,640 Speaker 3: better than he's ever played, and with Derrick Henry Ona 333 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,439 Speaker 3: pays for almost two thousand yards. I think it'll be 334 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 3: high scoring because the Ravens defense is not as good 335 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 3: as it was, especially their past defense. So I think 336 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 3: burrow is coming off of five touchdown performance, will light 337 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 3: them up. But they'll light up the Bengals because the Bengals. 338 00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 3: The Bengals defense is not nearest good as it has 339 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 3: been now. Chase what's the running back? Chase Chase Brown? 340 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 3: Chase Brown at his first hundred yard game, because people 341 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 3: up there are like, what in the world. 342 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 4: Why did we get rid of Joe Mixon? 343 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 3: So maybe they got a little more balanced now, but 344 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 3: I would never pick against the Ravens at home. 345 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel a lot better about this one in 346 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 1: the jungle as they call it, with the Ravens three losses. 347 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,400 Speaker 2: One is to the Chiefs at opening Night. 348 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 1: The other two were ambush games, the Raiders coming back 349 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,199 Speaker 1: on them Cleveland with James Winston. Anyway, the Jaguars are 350 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 1: playing the Vikings. I bring it up because Trevor Lawrence 351 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: is unlikely to play. They see I'm also unlikely to 352 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: play for the Jaguars on Sunday, but Mac Jones is 353 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 1: likely to play. What do you think of the Jags 354 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,400 Speaker 1: with Mac Jones? This could be a sneaky hot backup 355 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 1: performance for the Jaguars and general, at this point, I 356 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: don't even know if I'd rather see Lawrence or Jones. 357 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: When the Texans eventually played Jacksonville later this month. 358 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 3: They're talking about he may have to have surgery on 359 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 3: his left shoulder, especially since their season is over, which 360 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 3: still never admit. But Mac Jones had some moments, but 361 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 3: that was as a rookie, not since out Lawrence is 362 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 3: one here. Yeah, uh, he's not one in Jacksonville over Texans. 363 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,439 Speaker 3: I'd rather see Mac Jones and Trevor Lawrence. But wouldn't 364 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,199 Speaker 3: it be something if Jones played pretty well and they 365 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 3: bounced back and. 366 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 5: We're not surprised James He's played well there before. Wow, 367 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 5: in his hometown of Jacksonville. Okay, they would be kind 368 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,360 Speaker 5: of nice. General, the one quarterback situation we haven't asked about. 369 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 5: Is probably the most polarizing Last Sunday night, we saw 370 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 5: Joe Flacco struggle two field goals. Anthony Richardson sat there. 371 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,439 Speaker 5: Kevin O'Connell has some nice words to say to Anthony 372 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,440 Speaker 5: Richardson after the afterwards, they got the Bills coming to town. 373 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 2: And here's your trivia question. Mark. Mark was unable to 374 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 2: get this. I wouldn't have got it either. 375 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 5: Who's the last Bills starting quarterback to beat the Colts 376 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 5: in Indianapolis? 377 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 4: Well, let's see, it must go back to the RCA 378 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 4: Dome and. 379 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 1: It definitely does. It does, maybe a little further back 380 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:08,920 Speaker 1: than you think. 381 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 2: It's Peyton Manning's rookie year. 382 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 4: Is that right? 383 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 2: Nineteen ninety eight? And he has own serial named after him? 384 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 4: Who is it? 385 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 5: Flo Flutikelty Doug Fluoti's last quarterback? So that we know 386 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 5: Josh Allen's played quarterback for the Bills, But who should 387 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,160 Speaker 5: play quarterback for the Colts? 388 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:31,400 Speaker 2: And who do you think will this Sunday and beyond? 389 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 3: If Flacoh has another bad game where he just looks feeble, 390 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 3: you know that he finally hit that old man's wall. 391 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 3: They got to go back with Richardson a lot of people. 392 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 3: I think taking Richardson out to give him a new, 393 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 3: different perspective was good for him. And I don't you know, 394 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 3: when you got a guy who started thirteen games in 395 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 3: college and it started ten in the NFL and you 396 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 3: bench him, you know what did you expect was going 397 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 3: to happen? And it looks like they're just not doing 398 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 3: a good job coaching them. But Steichen has coached a 399 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 3: lot of great quarterbacks, so I think they're going to 400 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 3: go back to him. It's just a matter of time. 401 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 3: But I was stunned Flak who played as bad as 402 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 3: he did. I thought they'd lose and he'd played better. 403 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 3: He just looked awful. 404 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:15,639 Speaker 2: General. 405 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,879 Speaker 1: When the Texans played the Titans the regular season finale, I. 406 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 2: Guess they'll wear the oiler uniforms. 407 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: Because there's nothing like doing that to get the Nashville 408 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 1: fans fired up to watch your team play. 409 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 2: Anyway, I'm sorry, I can't. 410 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: Help it, but the general manager of the Titans is 411 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: he's safe. Ran Carthon is he's safe, presuming they kind 412 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:40,120 Speaker 1: of like slog along from here and finish with many losses. 413 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 3: When he got Mike raybow out, he got all the power, 414 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 3: and he got more than he'd had before. So he 415 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 3: spent a lot of money in free agency, and it's 416 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 3: not working because they don't have a quarterback. 417 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 4: And I think he will be allowed to acquire. 418 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 3: The next quarterback, whether it's a draft choice, whether it's 419 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 3: a ve like Sam Darnell, who everybody would be after, 420 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 3: if he's on the free agent market, because the Viking's 421 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,679 Speaker 3: not going to give him some big five year contract 422 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 3: for thirty million a year or whatever it's going to cost. 423 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 3: But I and I do not think a lot of 424 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 3: people up there there. I do two shows a week 425 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 3: up there, and they are so down on Ran Carthon 426 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 3: second year GM and Brian Callahan because Brian hired is 427 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,640 Speaker 3: dead Bill a great offensive line coach, and our offensive 428 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 3: line's worse than it was and you know, bad quarterback 429 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 3: and make the line the line look bad. But they 430 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 3: are in Their defense is number one. Texans are number two. 431 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 3: Their defense has been really good, but their offense has 432 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 3: been pathetic. And I'll say this. They haven't announced it, 433 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 3: I guess, but when the Titans come here, we're going 434 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 3: to see him in the H Town blue. Yeah, of 435 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:57,119 Speaker 3: course they got to wear that H Town Columbia blue 436 00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 3: for the Titans. 437 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 6: Wait to be kind of nice. 438 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 1: Wait, the Texans have to wear that? Oh I see, Yeah. 439 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 4: I want to rub it in because they know that. 440 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: To wear it one more time. Yeah, I don't know 441 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: if they do that, I waste it on them. 442 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 4: Oh why do you have it to begin with? 443 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 2: For them? We have it because we like it. 444 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 1: They have it for us, They have that oiler stuff 445 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: for us generally. 446 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 5: You mentioned earlier, You mentioned earlier Mike Rabel's name. Do 447 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,880 Speaker 5: you think Rabel ends up with one of these coaching openings? 448 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 5: We know there are two right now. We've got the 449 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 5: Saints that are open, and we've got which other opening? 450 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 2: Do we have Jets? Jets? Jets? We have Jet Saints. 451 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 5: Do you think Mike Rabel ends up with one of 452 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,479 Speaker 5: those openings? Not one of those, but just all coaching opening? 453 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 3: Well, I mean a defensive coach, but if you take 454 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 3: that away, I would want Mike to be the Jets 455 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 3: coach because you know, he towers over Aaron Rodgers. So 456 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,479 Speaker 3: when Rogers trying to tell him what to do, unless 457 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 3: he's sitting, he's kind of intimidating. Everybody said Mike was 458 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 3: always intimidating, So I'd love to see him up there 459 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 3: kicking serious butt with his players, with the. 460 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,679 Speaker 4: Media, and he would eat it up because. 461 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 3: He's from there, and he's got that personality because he 462 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 3: was there from Ohio. 463 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 4: Of course. 464 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 3: But and I think Mike will be head coach. And 465 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 3: I think everybody's starting now that complained about. 466 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 4: Him last year. 467 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 3: Maybe they were a little too quick on the trigger, 468 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 3: because remember when Rabel coached the Titans, no matter how 469 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,479 Speaker 3: bad they were, they always were capable of winning. 470 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 2: You knew you were at a game. 471 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 3: The last game against Jacksonville in Jacksonville, all the Jaguars 472 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 3: had to do was beat the lowly Titans. 473 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:45,959 Speaker 4: Twin the AFC. 474 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 3: South Texan's been a wild card and gone on the 475 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,120 Speaker 3: road and Rabel takes them in there and they beat 476 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 3: the Jaguars. And that's what he is capable of doing. 477 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:56,920 Speaker 3: And everybody said, I can't believe he didn't get a job. 478 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 3: How do we know he didn't turn down something? Probably 479 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 3: he still had multiple years left on his contract for 480 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 3: millions and millions of dollars now going to Cleveland. You know, 481 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,439 Speaker 3: he's he's fortunate to not be mentioned in any of 482 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,679 Speaker 3: that mess up there. But I think Michaeil get another 483 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,160 Speaker 3: head coaching job, and I'm glad that he does. Problem 484 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:23,160 Speaker 3: with the Saints, the worst cap situation may be ever cap. 485 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely, all right, So I'm gonna name four. Two 486 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 1: of these are definitely open, two more could be open. 487 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 1: You tell me which job you would want, not for Vrabel, 488 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: but for anybody coach X, maybe even Belichick. All right, 489 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:43,359 Speaker 1: So the Jets, the Saints obviously, Giants, Jaguars. Is there 490 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 1: another one on the board? Cowboys, Giants, Jaguars. Those five 491 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:48,640 Speaker 1: will give me the best job out of the lid. 492 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 3: Thing about the Cowboys. You're the head coach of America's team, 493 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 3: and there's a lot that comes with that. But you 494 00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 3: Jerry Jones telling you what to do. Now, Jerry's years old, 495 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:05,439 Speaker 3: and Jerry doesn't come up by watch film and decide 496 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 3: I'm going to do this or this. He talks to 497 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 3: his son Steven. He talks to Will McLay, recognized as 498 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 3: a really good personnel guy. He talks to the head coach. 499 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 3: I remember Parcells told me Jerry wanted Eddie George Bill 500 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 3: like a young running back. Jones, I can't remember his name, 501 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,440 Speaker 3: but he told Jerry, hey, you want Eddie George, I'll 502 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 3: coach it. Bill didn't want to, Jerry did, and Jerry 503 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 3: didn't tell them you have to do it. But Bill said, hey, 504 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:36,640 Speaker 3: if you want him, bring him in, I'll coach him. 505 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 3: So there is a little flexibility, and so I would 506 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 3: think that would be the most prestigious. New York's would 507 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:49,640 Speaker 3: be the most difficult. Jacksonville would be the easiest. No pressure, 508 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 3: no pressure from fans, no pressure from media, an owner 509 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 3: who doesn't tell you what to do. I would think 510 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:03,159 Speaker 3: Mike Brabel if he might want to take one of 511 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 3: the New York jobs just so he could get in 512 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,440 Speaker 3: there and get it, get in the middle of it. 513 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:09,800 Speaker 4: But I would want that Jacksonville job. 514 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 2: Very cool. General, What do you have going on in 515 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:12,879 Speaker 2: Houston Texans dot Com? 516 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,439 Speaker 3: I have a column that's going up in the morning 517 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 3: in which I analyze what the Texans need to do 518 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 3: to win a game. 519 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,439 Speaker 2: Excellent.

But I want to start with the young buck. 550 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 5: I want to start with Kaylin and what you've seen 551 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 5: from him, because he's brand new, but he's gotten his 552 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 5: feet wed, he's been in there, he's been making some plays. 553 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 5: What are your thoughts on Kaylen's progress thus far this year? 554 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, Kaylyn's been working hard. 555 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 8: He shows up every day with the right attitude first 556 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 8: and foremost, so starting there, I think the mindset coming 557 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 8: in is soaking up all the information he can, especially 558 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 8: from the vits, wanting to learn, positive attitude, wants to 559 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 8: be coached, and it goes out in there and does 560 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 8: what we ask him to do. And it's been shown 561 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 8: up since he got here. Guys been making plays on 562 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 8: the ball training camp OTAs and it showed into the season. 563 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 6: Now. 564 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 1: Some guys just seem to have a knack for being 565 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 1: able to locate the ball. The ball ends up in 566 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: their hands. Is there something to that. Are some guys 567 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 1: more naturally inclined to do that than others? How does 568 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: that work? 569 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 2: Coach? 570 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:44,000 Speaker 8: As we all are in human beings shaped by our 571 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 8: past experiences, Kaylan background is baseball, So tracking the ball 572 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 8: from center fields one of the hardest thing to do, 573 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 8: Like you're talking about from two hundred feet two hundred 574 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 8: and fifty feet away, seeing a white ball come off 575 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 8: a bat like now you're tracking big leather football like 576 00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 8: it's a lot easier and same thing with the rest 577 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 8: of the guys room different different backgrounds in sports, and 578 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 8: he shows up in their athletic ability. 579 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 5: Coach Eric Murray has been a guy that's been around 580 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 5: here since twenty twenty. 581 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 2: I think he's one of the more most tenured. 582 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 5: Texans and he's played a number of different roles, and 583 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 5: he's played a number of different roles for this team 584 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 5: as well. 585 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 2: Were your thoughts about what E. 586 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 5: Murray brings to the group the grizzled veteran of that group. 587 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 5: I guess Jimmy's probably a little bit older, but let's 588 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 5: talk about em Murray first. 589 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 8: Yeah, Jimmy's the oldest guy.

You might need more or less, you know, 630 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 8: based on your experience you're playing time and your age. 631 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 5: Coach, where does I feel like there's almost this fight 632 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 5: for Jalen Petrie, like he's part of Safety's and Nickels, 633 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 5: so you get him in your. 634 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 2: Meeting room at all during during the week. 635 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 5: Does he have to end up learning safety in certain 636 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 5: weeks or certain situations or is he purely out of 637 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 5: your room like he's not. 638 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 2: A safety, He is a nickel going forward, I. 639 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 8: Think on Jalen's medical records his blood type is football player. 640 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:39,320 Speaker 2: Yeah it's a good but so yeah, it's a good one. 641 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 8: Jalen learns extremely well, absorbed information tremendously well. And again 642 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 8: as a back end, we meet together. Yep, so guys 643 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 8: can cross train without having Okay, I gotta go this 644 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 8: meeting room in the morning and afternoon. We meet together, 645 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 8: and we do a great job collectively. I think with 646 00:32:56,440 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 8: Dino Corey Ulin everybody as a unit, we all share 647 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 8: the same mindset in terms, we just want to help 648 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 8: the players get better each day and help us win. 649 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 1: Steven Hadagke, safety's coach for the Texans, joining us in studio. 650 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: Along those lines with Jalen, you said blood type is 651 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:17,840 Speaker 1: football player. He likes to hit people, and same question 652 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 1: about the ball tracking stuff. Some guys seem to like 653 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 1: to hit people more than others. Everyone's doing it, they're 654 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 1: professional football players, but certain guys really like to lay 655 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 1: the lumber. 656 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 2: So how does that work? 657 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 8: Coach I think again, like Jalen has had experience again 658 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 8: starting Pop Warner Stafford when he's in high school, got 659 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 8: to play linebacker, played a little running back. So again, 660 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 8: like he's been prepared and trained for contact, like that's 661 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 8: just natural for him versus like he's been growing and 662 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 8: developing in the past game and so like Jalen has 663 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 8: a knack for violence in the football on the football field, 664 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 8: and he displays the day in and day out. Same 665 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 8: thing I could say for Jimmy Ward. Like Jimmy's been 666 00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 8: playing defensive whole life. Like in high school, you know 667 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 8: a lot of guys played both sides of the ball. 668 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 8: Jimmy played defense, and so in Alabama in high school, 669 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 8: you can you can't hit, can't play. Yeah, so that 670 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 8: that shows up for Jimmy. 671 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 1: Has Jimmy been a big help to Jalen as a 672 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:13,400 Speaker 1: guy who's played multiple positions in the defensive backfield. 673 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:15,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think Jimmy's been a big help for everybody. 674 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 6: Because Jimmy came in the league. 675 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 8: He played corner, outside corner, He's played nickel, He's played safety, obviously, 676 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 8: he's played dime, he's played gunner. 677 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. 678 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 8: He played Jameron Pumper turn he's really done at all, 679 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 8: And so Jimmy's been a big help even for me. 680 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 8: Like Jimmy's been the NFL eleven years now, right, so 681 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 8: like he's seen a lot a lot of football. 682 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 5: Coach, I heard this, and I was trying to remember where. Oh, 683 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 5: I know I heard it from to my colleague to 684 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:47,400 Speaker 5: the left. What when you have players that have been around, 685 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 5: they've seen some things, and they're like, hey, coach, I 686 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 5: think this. I think maybe I could do this, or 687 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,280 Speaker 5: maybe we could run this player. You know this place 688 00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 5: we used to run this. How important is it for 689 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 5: a coach to actually listen to players and hear what 690 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 5: they have to say, taking into account as opposed to 691 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 5: I'm the coach, you're the player you play, I'll coach. 692 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 5: How important is it for the coach to be malleable 693 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:14,320 Speaker 5: in some sense, to be able to listen to the players, 694 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,600 Speaker 5: to be able to know, Okay, because you mentioned it 695 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 5: with Jimmy a while ago, that might be a guy 696 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 5: you want, might might want to listen to you because 697 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:22,839 Speaker 5: he's been around, he's seen some things. 698 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:24,400 Speaker 8: It's funny to use the word malleable. I used that 699 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 8: in the meeting room or this morning for guys. Yeah, 700 00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 8: ready to change. It's good word. 701 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's good word applies the metal. 702 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 8: So I think understanding football football is a collaborative effort 703 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 8: from coaches to scouting again, to the weight room, to 704 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 8: the nutritionist dietitians. It's a collaborative effort and it doesn't 705 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 8: change when it comes to the players. So again, like 706 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,839 Speaker 8: what do you ask a player what they feel comfortable with? Coach, 707 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,359 Speaker 8: I feel comfortable doing X, Y and Z. How does 708 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 8: that apply? What does that? 709 00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:51,840 Speaker 6: What does that have a home in our scheme? 710 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:53,799 Speaker 8: And now let's mess it together and make it work, 711 00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:57,000 Speaker 8: because again, you see guys come into the league and 712 00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,799 Speaker 8: have success when they fall into the right system and 713 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 8: in the system. Okay, we have this player, like let's 714 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 8: say Kaitlyn. Kaitlyn has these tools and these abilities. Well, 715 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:07,840 Speaker 8: like we don't need to line him up all the 716 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 8: time on end the line and just blitz. He can 717 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:11,919 Speaker 8: play center field, he can play in the deep areas 718 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 8: of the field really well at a high level and 719 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,919 Speaker 8: attack the ball. Let's try putting them back there and again, 720 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 8: now as you do that, you can mix it up 721 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 8: and do different things. But using their skills to fit 722 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:25,280 Speaker 8: our defenses, and that's it's important. So to your point, 723 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:28,840 Speaker 8: collaborating with the players, letting us know what they feel 724 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,880 Speaker 8: comfortable with and they what they like, is important. 725 00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 2: All right, this is a really important question to me anyway. 726 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 2: So in the meeting room. 727 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,439 Speaker 1: Who's the most entertaining player, the guy with the best 728 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:42,799 Speaker 1: stories jokes? I'm going to nominate Jimmy Ward, maybe even 729 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:44,839 Speaker 1: Calyn Bullock as a rookie's pretty strong coach. 730 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:46,360 Speaker 2: What he's in here with us pretty strong. 731 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 1: But Jimmy feels like you don't have his own talk 732 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 1: show or podcast. 733 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 8: Jimmy Ward is one of my favorite people on this planet. 734 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 6: Jimmy. 735 00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:57,600 Speaker 8: Jimmy has a story for everything. And Jimmy is very 736 00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,640 Speaker 8: blunt and very. 737 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 6: Uh, very genuine. 738 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:06,840 Speaker 8: So sometimes like I don't know, I can make the 739 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,360 Speaker 8: story like let's say Jimmy jammed his finger and it's crooked, 740 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:12,200 Speaker 8: and the man's your finger all right, He's like, yep, 741 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:15,319 Speaker 8: it's fine, works and just keep pushing so like he 742 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:18,280 Speaker 8: might like man his fingers turned sideways and just he's genuine, 743 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 8: he wants to just keep going like he doesn't your 744 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 8: person His personality doesn't jump out as somebody's like, hey, 745 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 8: that dude's hurting like he doesn't matter, shrug it all, 746 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 8: keep it going. 747 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:30,560 Speaker 6: So Jimmy's awesome. Jimmy's probably probably one of the most entertaining. 748 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:33,600 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, that was probably gonna be my guess. I 749 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 2: don't imagine the rookie probably holds back a little bit. 750 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 2: I bet Calem probably holds back a little bit in 751 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:38,920 Speaker 2: a couple of years. Yeah, a couple of years. Give 752 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 2: him time. 753 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 5: He's from LA so there's probably something there, uh for sure. 754 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:47,480 Speaker 5: Coaches the Lions this week seven and one. Last week, 755 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 5: you faced Aaron Rodgers, a grizzled vet who knows how 756 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 5: to do the little things of play in the quarterback position. 757 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:56,720 Speaker 5: Now you face Jared Goff, another grizzled vet who's been around, 758 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 5: He's seen some things. He's got a good wide receiver corps. 759 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:01,760 Speaker 5: Thoughts on facing the Lions this weekend. 760 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,279 Speaker 8: I think the Lions are a really good football team 761 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,439 Speaker 8: and it shows like starting with the culture over there. 762 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 8: Everybody of their works, they put their head down, they 763 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:11,279 Speaker 8: put on their hard hat, bring the lunch pill. 764 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 6: They're going to work. Is not always que pretty. 765 00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:15,959 Speaker 8: I know the trick plays flashed a lot on TV, 766 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 8: but those guys put their head down and go to work. 767 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:21,120 Speaker 8: They run the football, they can play physical, they can 768 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 8: throw the ball, they can run it. So, I mean, 769 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 8: those guys have been put it on tape all year. 770 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 1: Long, playing prime time. This is your third one of 771 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 1: the season. You played one on the road, one at home. 772 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,240 Speaker 1: Does that help having gotten through that whole routine before, 773 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 1: because it's a different situation waiting around all day no 774 00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:37,200 Speaker 1: matter what group you're coaching. 775 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 8: Yeah, I'd say just as guys been playing football most 776 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 8: of them their whole life, and the mindset is put 777 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 8: the ball down in his play. 778 00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:46,320 Speaker 6: So they want to kick it off at nine am. 779 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 8: We can do it and eat breakfast after, you know 780 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:50,680 Speaker 8: what I mean, Or if you wait till nine pm, 781 00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:52,319 Speaker 8: doesn't matter. He's got to be in the mindset to 782 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 8: put the ball down in play. But to your point, 783 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:56,840 Speaker 8: it does help to have gone through the experience of 784 00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:57,880 Speaker 8: having a night game before. 785 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 6: But I think everybody he's just excited, ready to go. 786 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 2: You like that red helmet so far? Oh you stole 787 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:05,880 Speaker 2: my questions. What he was going to say. Do you 788 00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 2: like the red helmets? 789 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:06,759 Speaker 5: Oh? 790 00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:08,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, they're they're flashy. 791 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, flat from from face masks. 792 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:10,879 Speaker 7: Nice. 793 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:12,319 Speaker 6: Yeah, they're nice, right. 794 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 2: Which one's your favorite? 795 00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 5: The h Town ones we wore against Buffalo, the the 796 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 5: Liberty White which we wore last week, or the Reds now. 797 00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:21,880 Speaker 2: We haven't seen the Reds in action, so we don't know, 798 00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:23,480 Speaker 2: But what do you think? Which one's your favorite? 799 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 6: I like, what the players like, whatever's going to help 800 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:27,960 Speaker 6: them go out there. Good hand, let's do it. 801 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 2: Good and good coach answer, Thanks a lot, coach, Good 802 00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:31,439 Speaker 2: luck to you. 803 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:32,359 Speaker 6: I appreciate it. 804 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:36,399 Speaker 1: Steven Atagoke Safety's coach for your Texans. Now, so match 805 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 1: up information from this one, and I don't want to 806 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,759 Speaker 1: bog you down with numbers, which means I'm about to 807 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 1: bog you down with numbers, but to keep it super simple. 808 00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:48,760 Speaker 1: And we mentioned points allowed earlier as a defensive stat 809 00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,880 Speaker 1: worth noting the Lions are fifth in the league and 810 00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:56,320 Speaker 1: points allowed defensively total defense, though they're twenty second. Meanwhile, 811 00:39:56,360 --> 00:40:01,719 Speaker 1: the Texans total defense second in the NFL points allowed fourteenth. 812 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,160 Speaker 1: That's not a bad number, but it's not as good 813 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 1: as the Lions fifth in points allowed, So that's something 814 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:09,319 Speaker 1: you want to sort of keep your eye on here. 815 00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 1: Of course, I mean outscoring the opponent is important. Isn't 816 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 1: it No, But keeping the Lions to a low point 817 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 1: total twenty nine sacks for the Texans. Meanwhile, the Lions, 818 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:20,319 Speaker 1: we talked about this with the general Aiden Hutchinson was 819 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 1: lighting things up. But they have twenty sacks. Texans have 820 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,839 Speaker 1: nine more sacks, and they also get after it with 821 00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:29,920 Speaker 1: all the TFLs that they've got. Total offense, the Texans 822 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 1: are eleventh in the league, the Lions are seventh, and 823 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:35,719 Speaker 1: they're running the ball at a good clip sixth of 824 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:39,320 Speaker 1: the NFL in rushing yards. It's a true compliment between 825 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:42,520 Speaker 1: Montgomery and Gibbs. Keep that in mind as they run 826 00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:44,839 Speaker 1: for one point fifty two a game. Now, as far 827 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 1: as the Texans go, they're eleventh in rushing offense, not 828 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 1: a terrible number one twenty six per game. Obviously, Joe 829 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 1: Mixon has the Lion's share. Ooh did I say that? 830 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 1: Pardon the pun of that. Things to keep in mind 831 00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:00,359 Speaker 1: as these two teams match up on Sunday. Of course, 832 00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:03,840 Speaker 1: running the ball crucial for the Texans. Pass protection crucial 833 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 1: for the Texans as they try to get that passing 834 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:07,920 Speaker 1: attack going on fire. 835 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:08,879 Speaker 2: Coming up. 836 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 1: Injuries always an issue we'll discuss, and we have Houston 837 00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 1: Methodist minutes back injuries, not just for the athletes, but 838 00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 1: for you, so many of you with bad backs. We've 839 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:20,480 Speaker 1: got a doctor to help. It's coming up here on 840 00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 1: Texans All Access. All right, let's get to it. The 841 00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:27,040 Speaker 1: injury report. Your Houston Texans at practice today and not 842 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:31,799 Speaker 1: participating again. Will Anderson Junior fully foughtacasi. I don't like 843 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:35,440 Speaker 1: these two at all. Missing practice. Kenyon Green still listed 844 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,880 Speaker 1: as not practicing, still on the fifty three man roster. 845 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:42,759 Speaker 1: Jake Hanson, I don't like this ankle injury. Did not 846 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 1: participate after being limited yesterday. Jake did start practice yesterday, 847 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,759 Speaker 1: so that is definitely worth watching because with a ziz 848 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:52,640 Speaker 1: Al Shier coming back, you gotta watch out for. Hanson 849 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:55,239 Speaker 1: has a great special teams player. Might not be able 850 00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:57,239 Speaker 1: to go, but we'll find out more tomorrow. No time 851 00:41:57,280 --> 00:42:00,840 Speaker 1: to panic just yet. Damian Pierce also out with groin injury. 852 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,480 Speaker 1: Now here's some good news. Derek Barnett back today in 853 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,799 Speaker 1: a limited capacity, and that's big because if you have 854 00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:10,440 Speaker 1: no will, you have to at least have Barnett. Obviously, 855 00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:13,160 Speaker 1: you have daneil on the other side at the edge 856 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 1: and Dylan Horton coming back from an illness, missed practice yesterday, 857 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:21,319 Speaker 1: he was limited today. Shaq Mason full participant after being 858 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 1: limited with a hip yesterday. Interesting for Detroit. Here's the highlight. 859 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:29,720 Speaker 1: Zadarius Smith back to back days, no practice, recently acquired 860 00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 1: from Cleveland, of course personal reasons. So I'm gonna say 861 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:37,440 Speaker 1: it's unlikely that he goes Sunday night, missing two practices 862 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:40,040 Speaker 1: with his new team, has yet to do anything with 863 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 1: the Lions, and they got to get him acclimated. 864 00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 2: So we'll see how that goes. Let's see how this goes. 865 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:49,120 Speaker 1: Houston Methodist minutes Doctor Cameron Safety of Houston Methodist on 866 00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:51,319 Speaker 1: back injuries. Doctor, how's it going. 867 00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:53,319 Speaker 7: It's going great? All right? For having me. 868 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 1: Let's talk about back injuries. I'm glad I don't have 869 00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 1: one right now, but you deal with so many different 870 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 1: types and we can get into athletes, but let's talk 871 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,400 Speaker 1: about some of the more common back issues that you 872 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:06,840 Speaker 1: see in your patients time and time again. 873 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:10,239 Speaker 7: Well, we see a wider ray and that's one of 874 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 7: the challenges of back injuries. There's so many different causes 875 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:18,239 Speaker 7: of back injuries because there's so many different pain generators 876 00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:22,080 Speaker 7: in the lumbar spine. Or the lower backs. So everything 877 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:26,719 Speaker 7: from muscle issues, muscle strains, to you know, issues with 878 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 7: the joints, arthritis in the joints, issues with the discs 879 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,440 Speaker 7: such as generative dis disease, and then issues with the 880 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:36,439 Speaker 7: nerves where they get pinched and can cause pain down 881 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:39,640 Speaker 7: the leg, which people refer to as sciatica. So there's 882 00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:43,759 Speaker 7: a there's a large list of issues, and so that's 883 00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:46,920 Speaker 7: why it's important to have you know, a multidisciplinary team 884 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:49,440 Speaker 7: to try to figure out what the issue is. 885 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 1: All Right, we hear about athletes and normal weekend warriors 886 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:58,839 Speaker 1: as well, but athletes having backspasms. What happens during a backspasm. 887 00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:00,839 Speaker 7: Well, the muscle can get irritated. Then this can be 888 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:05,760 Speaker 7: from two different ideologies. It can be a primary issue 889 00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:08,600 Speaker 7: with the muscle, meaning and the muscle is fatigued or 890 00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,880 Speaker 7: there's a you know, tear in the muscle fiber, a 891 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:16,400 Speaker 7: muscle strain and that's causing the muscle to be irritated 892 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 7: in spasm. Then on the other hand, you have underlying 893 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 7: issues that can cause the muscle to spasm, and so 894 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:28,279 Speaker 7: you know, arthritis in the joints, other inflammatory issues that 895 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,800 Speaker 7: can secondarily cause the muscle to spasm and the muscle 896 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:35,000 Speaker 7: tightens up, and that's where people feel the pain. 897 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:38,239 Speaker 2: What's the most common surgery you find yourself doing. 898 00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 7: The most common surgery would be what's called a transsois 899 00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 7: lateral lumbar inner body fusion, and we do this primarily 900 00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:55,800 Speaker 7: for what a condition called spondylolethesis, which is just medical 901 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,799 Speaker 7: jargon for you know, when someone has a lot of 902 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:02,680 Speaker 7: arthritis in the spine at a specific level and there's 903 00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:07,879 Speaker 7: some flip or instability in that level due to that arthritis, 904 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 7: and so that can cause pain and the body may 905 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:15,319 Speaker 7: react by creating more tissue to stabilize it, but in 906 00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 7: doing so, it also compresses the nerves and people can 907 00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:21,440 Speaker 7: get pain down the legs. So we do a minimally 908 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 7: invasive procedure to both take the pressure off the nerves 909 00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:26,920 Speaker 7: and stabilize the joint. 910 00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:31,000 Speaker 1: Finally, doctor, do you have any suggestions for back injury prevention? 911 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:32,360 Speaker 2: Anything you could recommend? 912 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:39,120 Speaker 7: Yeah, absolutely, so a couple of things. Aerobic exercise cardio 913 00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 7: exercise is excellent. There are large studies showing that patients 914 00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:48,239 Speaker 7: who have chronic back pain defined as greater than one year, 915 00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 7: get significant relief from enrolling in an exercise program and 916 00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:58,360 Speaker 7: then physical therapy or just exercise of the lumbar muscles 917 00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:00,800 Speaker 7: in the lower back and the core. This can be 918 00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:04,360 Speaker 7: a combination of core strengthening and extens or muscle strengthening 919 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:08,080 Speaker 7: and this can help prevent injuries in the future. 920 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:10,520 Speaker 2: Sounds great, doctor, thanks so much for the information. 921 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:12,480 Speaker 7: Absolutely, thank you for having me. 922 00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:16,400 Speaker 1: There's doctor Comeronce Safey of Houston Methodist. It's the official 923 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:20,080 Speaker 1: healthcare provider of the Houston Texans. Houston Methodist leading medicine. 924 00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:23,360 Speaker 1: And that's it for tonight's show. We'll be back tomorrow 925 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 1: at six.
