Speaker 1: O'Brien walks across the practice field here at the Houston

13
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: Methodist Training Center and players are making their way into

14
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 1: the bubble for activation and apparently we'll be outside today,

15
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: which is a surprise. And that's beautiful because Johnny, it

16
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:08,399
Speaker 1: is a historic day here at the Houston Methodist Training

17
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: Center because I actually went to my car to go

18
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,680
Speaker 1: get a pull over, which has never I guarantee, has

19
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: never ever happened here I've got what seventy six degrees

20
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: in Houston right now? Is that what it is? Seventy three?

21
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 1: Seventy three according to the Google people, seventy three in Houston.

22
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 1: I cannot remember a day. Look, I've been here for

23
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:31,960
Speaker 1: all of them. I cannot remember a day where it

24
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: was seventy three degrees at this time of day. And

25
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 1: we had that storm last night blew in a little

26
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 1: cold front. And folks, this is like brigadoon. You got

27
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,319
Speaker 1: to go outside right now and take advantage of this. Yeah,

28
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 1: if you're at home in lockdown or whatever, just take

29
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,320
Speaker 1: a walk, bring your device with you so you can

30
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: listen to us, and we'll have Jack Easter be in

31
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: just a few moments here and enjoy this weather because

32
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: it is rare. It's a march visit for a few

33
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 1: hours here in August. I can't even put into words

34
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: what this is like. You know, I always wear sleeves

35
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: because I don't like to wear sunscreen, and I do

36
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,359
Speaker 1: being outside today, I was like, I don't even get roasted.

37
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: I almost I was driving yesterday to go to the

38
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,519
Speaker 1: grocery store, and my dashboard things, my dashboard temperature set

39
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 1: one hundred and four and I almost took a picture

40
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: of it and went cold Front and Houston one hundred

41
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: and four. Obviously tongue in cheek. When I got in

42
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: the car this morning, I just went, oh, is he

43
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: gonna stay like this? Then, of course I got worried

44
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,839
Speaker 1: about the rain, because I'm like, are setup for those

45
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: that obviously can't see us are set up? Over the years,

46
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 1: we have always had the tent over us, so if

47
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: we did get rain, we at least would keep the

48
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 1: major rain out. Well, are setup this year? Is Mark

49
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: has the big tent, but I'm down below, so I

50
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,799
Speaker 1: would be getting soaked. I'm going to instagram that out

51
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 1: in just a few months. Yeah, so and so I

52
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 1: worried about that. But then I walked out here in

53
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 1: the rain it stopped and I went wow. I checked

54
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: my phone app it was seventy three degrees. At the time,

55
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 1: I thought, this is not this is unusual. This is

56
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 1: green Brower weather. We got our weather wish at least

57
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: one day. At least one day. So my boss, the

58
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,080
Speaker 1: president of the Houston Texans, Jamie Roots, when we were

59
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 1: at the Greenbrier, you know, he used the semi little

60
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: notes like stop talking about the weather because it was

61
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,799
Speaker 1: so beautiful there, and it was awful in Houston, of course,

62
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: and today it doesn't matter, boss, because it's beautiful in Houston.

63
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: Everybody can enjoy this wonderful day. Overcast guys, Houston Methodist

64
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: Trading Center. Look, it's the third practice that we will cover.

65
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 1: Johnny's got Harris Hits up on the Texans app and

66
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 1: we're gonna get your biggest takeaways from camp so far

67
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: Johnny and John McClain joins us at eight thirty. Bill

68
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 1: O'Brien's not gonna have his press conference pre practice today

69
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 1: because they're going a little earlier, So we've got a

70
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: big show. Brandon dunne an interview with him, and you

71
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 1: gotta stay tuned for the end of that interview. We're

72
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: gonna play that in the nine o'clock hour because he

73
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: starts interviewing me and it's kind of interesting, Oh, you

74
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 1: left that on there. I left it on there because

75
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: he wanted it on. He was very clear about the

76
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: cameras are still rolling on this right, So we're gonna

77
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,119
Speaker 1: play that for you in the nine. But Jack Easterby,

78
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: we had a chance to visit with the executive vice

79
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: president of football Operations, talking about everything that's gone into

80
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 1: this camp, all the prep, all the stuff to make

81
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 1: sure the players are as safe as possible, as healthy

82
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: as possible injury wise, and of course COVID wise. And

83
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 1: here's Jack. Well, if you go back to July third,

84
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: when we got the memo from the league about the

85
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 1: things that they thought were best practices for the protocols

86
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 1: and the setup. You know, originally a lot of it

87
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: was hypothetical, right, and just looking at spreadsheets, you're looking

88
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 1: at systems, you're looking at the building actually the structure

89
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 1: and the flow, and you're trying to come up with

90
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: the best possible scenario to play football and to have

91
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: a setup of a football operation at NRG. And so

92
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: we did that and we walked through that in the hypothetical.

93
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: But the exciting part was when our guys actually got

94
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: to come and do it, you know, when they showed

95
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 1: up and we got a chance to flow through the

96
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 1: day for a few times. We got a chance to

97
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: get these guys in meetings and really start talking football,

98
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 1: working out together, and that's been going really well, so

99
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 1: positive reports. Excited about what's going on. I would say,

100
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: whenever you put a plan together, there's always something in

101
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 1: the back of your by going, man, I hope this works,

102
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 1: but it has worked, and it's been good so far,

103
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: and lots of good things. Is we get started with

104
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,799
Speaker 1: Texans camp here? Hey, Jack? From a standpoint of putting

105
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,359
Speaker 1: that plan together, the focus of can we keep these

106
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: players safe? What do we have to do in the building?

107
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 1: How refreshing has it been to actually kind of dive

108
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: into the football aspect of life to get back to

109
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 1: normalcy in some sense that, Okay, our plan is working,

110
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 1: let's not focus on football and putting together the best

111
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 1: product we can on the field. How refreshing is that

112
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 1: bean to get the players back in the building to

113
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 1: be able to do that, It really is refreshing. That's

114
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,599
Speaker 1: a great question, Johnny. I think one of the things

115
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,599
Speaker 1: that was really cool is of our first team meeting,

116
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 1: right we began to talk about goals of this year's team.

117
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 1: We began to talk about principles right, dependable, tough, smart,

118
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,719
Speaker 1: get back to those same phrases and vernaculars that have

119
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 1: been so popular around our building. And I had chills

120
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 1: because I was like, this is it. This is why

121
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: you do this, you know, and you know, to see

122
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,279
Speaker 1: the players working out and obviously getting some things to

123
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: look at here over the last couple of days has

124
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 1: been refreshing. And I'll tell you this, the relationships right

125
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 1: beginning to form, right is, these guys in the off

126
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: season weren't afforded the opportunity like normal to be able

127
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 1: to get to know their new teammates, right, whether that's

128
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 1: drafted guys or free agent guys. So it's been cool

129
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: for those guys to begin to get to know each

130
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: other a little bit, not through a screen, right, and

131
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 1: to see them starting just cutting up and laughing, but

132
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: also learning the playbook and learning their roles that they'll

133
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 1: have for this year's team. So that's been really refreshing.

134
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 1: That's a great question, and it's good to finally see

135
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 1: some people running around together, Jack. I think this can

136
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: help everybody out there, no matter what business they're in,

137
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 1: as people start to meet again in person as opposed

138
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 1: to zoom. We're all a bunch of zoom experts. Now.

139
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: I was watching Hard Knocks. I've obviously seen the photos

140
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 1: from inside the building, the video with Peter King, all

141
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: the stuff you guys are put together. What's it like

142
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: to meet distanced and how is that dynamic playing out

143
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: for you? I see in the bubble you have to

144
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: share separated. I've seen you conduct meetings on video. What

145
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 1: is that like? Yeah, I think there's a huge behavioral

146
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 1: science right that we're going through right now, both in

147
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: the National Football League professional sports, but also in our

148
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 1: country at learning new things that we have to do

149
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: in order to keep the virus at bay. But also

150
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 1: I think there's some things we're trying to do just

151
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 1: to make sure that overall sickness is mitigated in the

152
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 1: risk is limited at what we're exposing ourselves to in

153
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: person to person contact. So I would say your question

154
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 1: there is very important for us going forward to begin

155
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 1: to create new ways. Right now, we'll spread out, like

156
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: you said, in the bubble. The bubble has been a

157
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 1: great asset for us because we can spread out in there.

158
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 1: We've got great screens up. The guys can watch an

159
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: HD exactly what they're doing in practice. So we've got

160
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: some great things going on. I think the behavioral science

161
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: going forward will beingportant to evolve. So we'll have to

162
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: do things where we're walking through together, We'll have to

163
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: do things where we're doing virtual walkthroughs and other things.

164
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: But I guess it is a new normal. It really is.

165
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: It's a new normal. Communication is out of premium. You

166
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 1: have to communicate. You have to do whatever it takes

167
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: to get the material from person to person, and sometimes

168
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 1: that means you got to spread out and do it.

169
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 1: Sometimes it means you got to go through virtual means.

170
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 1: But I think really the focus is on the material

171
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: and disseminating material whatever means necessary and doing it the

172
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: safe way. Jack, How proud are you of these players?

173
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:51,200
Speaker 1: Your staff, this organization. A Scotch O'Brien has noted a

174
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: few times a number of days of no positive COVID tests.

175
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,679
Speaker 1: These players are leaving the building, they're going to wherever

176
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 1: they're living, and they're coming back and they're not making

177
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 1: those decisions that we've seen from other organizations that have

178
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: gone awry. But the Texans have come back in zero

179
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 1: days or zero positives on multiple days. How proud are

180
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 1: you of the people that have left this building going

181
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: to live their lives and then come back into the

182
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,199
Speaker 1: building and not that's the positive? How proud are you

183
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: of the organization for that? Let me jump on that, Jack,

184
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 1: because is this like baseball announcers during a no hitter

185
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,959
Speaker 1: or a perfect game? Like no one talk about it

186
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 1: that just jins it and not just jinxy come on now,

187
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: but did not just jinks it. But we do need

188
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,680
Speaker 1: a no hitter jack, right. So what I've said to

189
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 1: our staff and also to lots of people around Texans world, is,

190
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 1: you know, the place doesn't necessarily make the people. The

191
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 1: people make the place, right. And so when we go

192
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: back to the beginning of the discussions with kl and

193
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 1: Janison Bill about how we're gonna set the building up,

194
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 1: you know, we thought about everything like how can we

195
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 1: touch things less right, how can we spread people out,

196
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: how can we keep people in the building for the

197
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 1: effective times when they need to be doing things that

198
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: are very specific, and then how can we keep them

199
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: out of the building at times where maybe they can

200
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 1: do some things virtually. And so I go back to

201
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:11,839
Speaker 1: that original conversation that McNair's having some awesome foresight to

202
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,079
Speaker 1: eliminate touch points around the building and investing in some

203
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: technology that allowed us to have some touch free zones

204
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 1: where guys don't have to interact with germs and things

205
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: that aren't in their normal patternless to say so, and

206
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,079
Speaker 1: then also the discipline outside the building, I mean, our

207
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 1: staff is made tremendous sacrifices or players have made sacrifices,

208
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: and that'll have to go, excuse me, be the case

209
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 1: going forward, because you know, each new day is obviously

210
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 1: an opportunity outside the building and to interact with people

211
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 1: that maybe aren't being tested, and there's definitely challenges with that.

212
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: But yeah, we're real excited about how it's gone so far.

213
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: But we're in the third ending to stick with y'alls analogies,

214
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: so or maybe the second ending. I don't know where

215
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 1: we are, but we're excited about what we've done so far. Well,

216
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 1: speaking of it being early with no preseason games and

217
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:05,440
Speaker 1: no joint practices, you don't have that wear and tear yet,

218
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,680
Speaker 1: you need some wear and tear. You need some physical banging.

219
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: It's professional football, so you're gonna have scrimmages and things

220
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: like that. What's it gonna be like to getting ready

221
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:18,199
Speaker 1: for the season without joint practices in preseason games? Jack, Well,

222
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this. I think we've adopted a phrase

223
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: that we've said a lot in our staff meetings and

224
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 1: our sports performance meetings and with the coaching staff is

225
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 1: that we have to do the next right thing right.

226
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 1: So there was debate whether there was going to be

227
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 1: preseason games where there wasn't going to be preseason games.

228
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 1: There was debate whether or not, you know, we would

229
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,319
Speaker 1: have X amount of padded practices or whether we'd have

230
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 1: why padded practices, and those debates obviously, we couldn't redo

231
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 1: the plan every time those debates went public. We had

232
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: to wait and be patient to get the plan from

233
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: the league. And once we got that plan, we sat

234
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 1: in multiple think tank sessions with our sports performance staff,

235
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 1: with our coaching staff who knew the skill sets of

236
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 1: our player is really well, and our scouting staff that

237
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 1: also knew the the medical situation with the current players

238
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: and the incoming players, and we put that all in

239
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 1: a milkshake to try to make a plan for this

240
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: camp that is a ramp up that's specifically curtailed to

241
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: individual guys to get them ready, but also curtailed to

242
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,200
Speaker 1: the entire team to get us to a load and

243
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: to get us to a threshold where we can play

244
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 1: well against Kansas City. And that's the goal, right. So

245
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 1: it's a little bit of a one off as far

246
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: as the curriculum we're following. It's not necessarily last year.

247
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,839
Speaker 1: I'm hoping it won't be next year, you know, But

248
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: for now it's been really really good just to see

249
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,959
Speaker 1: the next great thing. Kind of these slow day by

250
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 1: day progressions kind of get knocked out one by one

251
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,559
Speaker 1: as we build up and as we ramp up here.

252
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: But it's definitely different. But I think we got a

253
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 1: good plan and I think we're gonna execute that. But

254
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 1: it's got to be day to day, week to week,

255
00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: because you can't look too far ahead all that's going on,

256
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: whether it's a physical ramp up or whether that's actually

257
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: preparing to play Kansas City Jack. We all end up

258
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 1: in this world of football because in some way, shape

259
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 1: or form, we love the game of football, and there

260
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,599
Speaker 1: are certain aspects that we all love about our relationships.

261
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 1: We love the broadcast side of it. We love training camp,

262
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 1: and Mark and I talk about this all the time.

263
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 1: What are we most curious about seeing with this team

264
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 1: at training camp? Is there something for you that you

265
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,679
Speaker 1: are most curious or most excited to see as we

266
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 1: really dive into the true football putting on the pads

267
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: and seeing how the full plan on the field comes together.

268
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 1: There's something on the field that you're really excited about

269
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 1: seeing as we crank up the pads here. I don't

270
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: know if I could limit it to one thing, right,

271
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 1: I'm so excited about lots of things. We've got great

272
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 1: new coordinators that are going to step up and give

273
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 1: some creativity to some stuff that they're working on. Where

274
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,719
Speaker 1: we've got obviously new additions to both offensively and defensively

275
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 1: of guys that are dependable, tough, smart, We've got an

276
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 1: awesome quarterback who's better than was last year. We've got

277
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 1: a great front that I think can help do some

278
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 1: creative things, you know, on lots of levels defensively. So

279
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if I could give you one thing,

280
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 1: but I do think there's things that are going on

281
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 1: in the field, in the meeting room the Texans fans

282
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 1: should be very excited about, and for me personally, you know,

283
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 1: the fourteenth putting pads on, I think will be the

284
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 1: first step where we'll really see kind of some of

285
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 1: those things come to fruition. Jack. It's got to be

286
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 1: a huge challenge to think about. We see every year

287
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 1: Labor Day weekend teams picking up players that might have

288
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 1: been let go from other teams or whatever. They're available

289
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 1: for whatever reason. But that's after a long scouting process

290
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: and preseason games and whatever you get from training camp,

291
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 1: joint practices. If you see some of that footage or whatever,

292
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 1: now there's nothing, So how do you gauge that as

293
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: far as evaluating other teams possible prospects that are available.

294
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 1: And it's got to help you in a sense because

295
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 1: if you have some young hot shot that you want

296
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 1: to kind of get on the practice squad, maybe it's

297
00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 1: a little bit easier. Yeah, you know, I think that's

298
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 1: a good example of how some of these rules probably

299
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 1: are day by day. You know, I'm not exactly sure

300
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: how the way wire is going to play out this year.

301
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: I think it'll be different with protesting, the buyer reference

302
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: requirements to enter the building. Still waiting on some protocol

303
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 1: communication from the league on that, and I'm sure they'll

304
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 1: give us something here soon. But yeah, I think it's

305
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 1: definitely different. And that's why I've always said this camp,

306
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: or I've tried to say as many times to our staff,

307
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: is we got to do the next right thing? Right?

308
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: What is the next right thing? Because we're getting new

309
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 1: information every day. Bill has done a great job of

310
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 1: looking at the entire league. We've watched a lot of

311
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 1: players that aren't on our team. We've watched players that

312
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: are on our team. We've watched players that played well

313
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 1: in college and we're undrafted and are now playing for

314
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 1: other teams and what they may be good at. So

315
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 1: I feel like we have a really good pulse of

316
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 1: the entire league, both those that were familiar with in

317
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 1: the pro side and then those who entered into college side,

318
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 1: and if there was something out there, we'd always do

319
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 1: what's right for the team. Jack. We asked this question

320
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 1: of coach O'Brien all the time and got a feeling

321
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 1: that you would definitely fall into this case. In the

322
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 1: offseason with everything was going on in the building, I'm

323
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: sure you didn't have a ton of time to kind

324
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 1: of step away and maybe read a book, you know,

325
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 1: watch a series or something that maybe he gave you

326
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: some motivation. We talked to coach yesterday, but watching the

327
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 1: Last Dance, which is fascinated to go back and watch

328
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 1: twenty years after the fact. But he's always reading, He's

329
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 1: always reading about leadership and those kind of things. Is

330
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: there anything this offseason that you kind of found maybe

331
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 1: I don't know, some wisdom or something that you found

332
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 1: in reading a book or listening to a podcast that

333
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 1: you've kind of applied throughout this really kind of interesting

334
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 1: period of time. You know, it's interesting. I think if

335
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 1: you went through my searches on the internet, you'd see

336
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 1: a lot about the CBC, You'd see a lot about

337
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: some of the World Health Organization stuff, you know. So

338
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 1: I think that probably what dominated it. But I did

339
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 1: study the Spanish fluid nineteen eighteen relative to the reaction

340
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: of the government and the reaction of big business, because

341
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 1: I felt that there was some transition mayor to or

342
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: some transferable principles there that I felt were true of

343
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,639
Speaker 1: just the trauma that society goes through. You know, when

344
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 1: you have a pandemic and there's some fear, there's some worry.

345
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 1: People don't want to be out and about like we're

346
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 1: used to, especially in the great city of Houston, where

347
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 1: people want to be outside and play and hang out

348
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: and run and you celebrate summer. I think I learned

349
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 1: a lot from that. I learned a lot about the

350
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 1: President of the United States and how he handled that.

351
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 1: And so I also read a book called Culture Code

352
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 1: and talked a lot about culture and how culture is

353
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 1: group of people that repeat actions a group of people

354
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,639
Speaker 1: that repeat actions, and you know, you can say you

355
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:41,840
Speaker 1: have a culture, but your culture is really what your

356
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:46,119
Speaker 1: people are repeatedly doing. So challenging our culture just to

357
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 1: continue to massage that and you never really have it perfect,

358
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: but you just keep getting better and keep getting better.

359
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:55,359
Speaker 1: I also read a lot about the history of the

360
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 1: development of different franchises. I feel like the Texans franchises

361
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,440
Speaker 1: off to an amazing start twenty years into this thing.

362
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: I mean, if you look at what's happened in different

363
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 1: organizational history around the league, really the Texans are off

364
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 1: to an amazing start in the early history of this franchise.

365
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,440
Speaker 1: And so I thought about next steps for our franchise

366
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 1: and where we are and working with cal on that

367
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 1: because if you really think about it closely and you

368
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 1: compare other expansion teams, I mean, this franchise is off

369
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 1: to an awesome start, and the Fans have a lot

370
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 1: to be proud of what's happened so far. So Spanish flu,

371
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,399
Speaker 1: a little bit of culture code, a little bit of

372
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 1: Texans history, a little bit of NFL history, and probably

373
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,200
Speaker 1: a lot of Google searches of the World Health Organization.

374
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,440
Speaker 1: If I'm honest, well, we're at the beginning of the

375
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 1: latest chapter in our history. And Chack, we want to

376
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 1: thank you so much for coming on. We really appreciate

377
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 1: the time and look forward to catch it up soon. Yeah. Well,

378
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,520

379
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 1: guys more and appreciate what you do to represent our organization. Okay,

380
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 1: there's Jack Easter, be great to visit with him. Very

381
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 1: busy man. And you heard what he's been googling lately.

382
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,439
Speaker 1: So look, we've all been googling stuff like that right

383
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: to a degree. Now he's doing it to try to

384
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,439
Speaker 1: keep I don't know how many people in this building

385
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 1: as safe as possible, A tone hundred and fifty maybe

386
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:19,679
Speaker 1: in football all to all told, and then business operations

387
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 1: is a whole other thing. I mean, he and Jamie

388
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,400
Speaker 1: Roots work very closely to make sure this organization, top

389
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 1: to bottom, can stay as safe as possible in this environment.

390
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 1: So practice will be out here today. We're gonna have

391
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,360
Speaker 1: actually some practice going on while we're on the air,

392
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 1: which hasn't happened yet here on Texans Training Camp Live

393
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty, Johnny, I need give me two of

394
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: your biggest takeaways so far from what you've seen in practice.

395
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 1: Both practices that we've seen so far been in the bubble,

396
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:54,960
Speaker 1: and Texans Training Camp Live has covered it our pre

397
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:57,680
Speaker 1: practice show, our post practice show, all of it. But

398
00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,880
Speaker 1: give me your two biggest takeaways. I think the first

399
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 1: one hit the first day watching David Johnson run the

400
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:07,600
Speaker 1: ball and just seeing him size wise. I remember seeing

401
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 1: him when he was with the Cardinals when I believe

402
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,160
Speaker 1: they came here for I want to say they came

403
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,399
Speaker 1: here for a preseason game, if I remember correctly, and

404
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: I've ever seen him, I was like, Wow, he's impressive.

405
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 1: And you just watch him work receiver routes before the

406
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 1: game and you're like, God, that guy's are running back

407
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 1: and then you watch you run the football and you think, boy,

408
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,880
Speaker 1: he's got some juice left. And I texted you afterwards

409
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 1: and I said, if that David Johnson we see that

410
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,959
Speaker 1: we that we saw on Friday, that's the David Johnson

411
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 1: that we see this year. You know, buckle up, it's

412
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: gonna be fun. I think the other thing to me

413
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 1: that stood out for the most part this is this

414
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 1: is where there were a few things, but I'll go

415
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 1: to this one. Physically, the rookies so totally looked the part.

416
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:52,119
Speaker 1: I spent a lot of my time when I do

417
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,119
Speaker 1: draft stuff. I think about this a lot when I

418
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 1: go to the Senior Bowl and I look at players

419
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: and and I'm studying players. Know, it's funny. I've talked

420
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: to our scouts. I've talked to scouts throughout the league jams,

421
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 1: and I've kind of talked to him. And the one

422
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,719
Speaker 1: thing that they'll all tell you that I've I've come

423
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:08,960
Speaker 1: to find out as well, is you know, watch him

424
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 1: on film. That's one thing you know that's great, But

425
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,400
Speaker 1: you gotta see these guys up close. You gotta see

426
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 1: if they fit in your locker room, Like could that guy?

427
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 1: Could you take that guy off the field and stick

428
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 1: him in your locker room today? And there have been

429
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 1: times where I've been a Senior Bowl and went, yeah,

430
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 1: I could take that guy today and put him in

431
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 1: our locker room and he would fit, especially the defensive

432
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 1: guys we haven't had a chance to see, as Theah

433
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 1: Coulter yet, I should say, Charlie, heck two four to

434
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,160
Speaker 1: five draft picks, those guys look like they fit. Man,

435
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,360
Speaker 1: you walk I was walking this morning just over here

436
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,119
Speaker 1: and John Grenard was coming back from the Houston Methist

437
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 1: training bubble and he was walking back and I just

438
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 1: ran out into him and say, hey, John, you know

439
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,160
Speaker 1: we met at the Senior but yeah, yeah, John Harris. Yeah,

440
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 1: And so we talked for just a brief bit and

441
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:48,119
Speaker 1: he's realized, Man, this guy's an outside linebacker. Good grief.

442
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 1: And then you see Ross Blacklock and what he looks

443
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 1: like physically, and then you watch him move and you're

444
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,520
Speaker 1: like wow. And we've got us that on video too.

445
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 1: You can check out some of our video coverage and

446
00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,199
Speaker 1: you'll see glimpses of it. I know you can't be

447
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,400
Speaker 1: out here, fans, but our videos are showing some stuff

448
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,440
Speaker 1: and not the whole thing, not the whole eleven on

449
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 1: eleven from aerial view, but you're gonna get some ideas

450
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 1: of what these guys are like, Yeah, absolutely, and I

451
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:12,879
Speaker 1: think those are Those are the two. I think the

452
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 1: third thing, if there was anything Mark I would think.

453
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,680
Speaker 1: And I want to make sure I say this in

454
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:21,480
Speaker 1: the right way, but Deshaun's in full and total control.

455
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,920
Speaker 1: Like he's he's in control, like's not he's not calling

456
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 1: the plays, He's not just going rogue and calling whatever

457
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,160
Speaker 1: he wants but you can just tell that he has

458
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,479
Speaker 1: he If there's a huddle and they break it, he

459
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 1: goes up and he knows exactly what the coverage is.

460
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,440
Speaker 1: He knows who's disguising, he knows who's coming, he knows

461
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,399
Speaker 1: exactly what he wants. He's at his pace and his tempo.

462
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,720
Speaker 1: If he wants to get things off quickly, he gets

463
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 1: off quickly. If he wants to be totally sure, he

464
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 1: wants to see if he can draw the defense out

465
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 1: of the skuis. I thought it was interesting the other

466
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 1: day he did that where he got up to a

467
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 1: lot of scrimmage. He kind of gave a little bit

468
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 1: of a hard count and he got the safeties to

469
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 1: move and it showed him cover two, and so then

470
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 1: he walked up to the line of scrimmage and he

471
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 1: changed the play to a run, knowing that they were

472
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 1: too high, and so he ended up getting running pop

473
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 1: one in there for a good game. But he is

474
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: in full and total control. It's his fourth year in

475
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 1: new offense. He knows it. Obviously. With Tim Kelly, new

476
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,359
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, play caller, shouldn't say new new play caller,

477
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,440
Speaker 1: second year offensive coordina. They're gonna do a few different things. Yeah,

478
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 1: but you can tell that he is in absolute command

479
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,679
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage, and you just go back to

480
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:27,399
Speaker 1: him as a rookie. We knew he was good. I

481
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 1: mean when we were at the Greenbrier going could greet

482
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 1: this guy's amazing, but you could just tell that there

483
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 1: were times he wasn't totally sure what he was seeing

484
00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,960
Speaker 1: should he make that? Now it's just he knows exactly

485
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:39,639
Speaker 1: what he needs to do. He knows the pace he

486
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,199
Speaker 1: wants to go, he knows where he wants to go

487
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 1: with the football. He is in absolute and total command

488
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 1: of this offense. And I love seeing that. I love

489
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 1: seeing a quarterback make that step. And we've seen other teams.

490
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 1: It happened for other teams quarterbacks. You know, we've seen

491
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 1: it for them. I don't think I know, I haven't

492
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 1: seen the building because it's been a different quarterback every

493
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 1: year until the Sean got here in seven. And now

494
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: we're seeing that development, which has been pretty cool. Well,

495
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: the David Johnson size factor, I think you exemplified that

496
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,359
Speaker 1: well in the telestrator last night on Texans Extra Points,

497
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 1: which is the next couple of Sundays, by the way,

498
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,320
Speaker 1: ten thirty five on Sundays before it moves into its

499
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: regular Saturday slot. And I thought that was a great

500
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,639
Speaker 1: telestrator last night on David Johnson as a cardinal and

501
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,360
Speaker 1: some adjustments he made in his ability to run through tackles,

502
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,040
Speaker 1: the sheer size of the guy along with the receiving skills.

503
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,679
Speaker 1: All right, Next up John McClain, the general. What does

504
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 1: he think of all this? What about Jonathan Grenard? How

505
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,679
Speaker 1: can he fit into this pass rush scheme along with

506
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 1: Jacob Martin as we look at that second wave behind

507
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 1: Whitney and Brennan, Scarlett and Watt. Let's talk about that

508
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 1: among other things. And we'll get to Brandon done in

509
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:46,640

518
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 1: opened the email and saw the money there. I just

519
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:21,639
Speaker 1: knew that I would be able to help. The amount

00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,280
Speaker 1: been able to furnd them. But it's actually in the

615
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 1: seventies and they're supposed to practice outside. Don't know if

616
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:06,720
Speaker 1: it feels slig but I always like outside better than inside,

617
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 1: where it's not as dark and you can move around.

618
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 1: And last week they were inside with pads and two

619
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 1: players among a lot of players who stood out to

620
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 1: me were running back David Johnson and tight end Jordan Thomas.

621
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: I thought those guys were just tremendous when they put

622
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 1: on pads. Just Thomas kedging. Everything's what we thought he

623
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:35,240
Speaker 1: would do. Last season. Attery caught those four reds on

624
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,600
Speaker 1: touchdown passes as a rookie. Until he came in he

625
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 1: wasn't in good shape. He got hurt. He loves like

626
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 1: he looks like a big tid receiving tight in and

627
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 1: he is big. And then David Johnson, you know, is there.

628
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's the most important player on the

629
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 1: team besides Deshaun Watson, but he's one of them, and

630
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,160
Speaker 1: he looks like he's got a lot to prove, and

631
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 1: he started with a bang. Hey, general, how have you

632
00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 1: found the first few days of training camp? It's been

633
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 1: so different from I know from my experience at training camp,

634
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 1: but you've been around a lot more of them than

635
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,840
Speaker 1: I have. How have you found training camp to be

636
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 1: the first few days with so few media, so few

637
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 1: opportunities to have FaceTime with the players? How have you

638
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 1: found that over the last few days everybody adjusted And

639
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 1: I'm used to zoom calls as a poor reporter of

640
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 1: the team to get to cover practice. I get to

641
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 1: sit down with O'Brien after practice and talk to him

642
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 1: about practice. I didn't think I'd be interviewing anybody in

643
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 1: person all year, so that's been good and I just

644
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 1: as far as fewer media people, the only thing I've

645
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 1: noticed is I have to stand at a cone so

646
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 1: I can make sure that I'm that I'm not within

647
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 1: sixth stee of anybody or that thing we wear, that

648
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 1: tracer it, you know, blinks read, so I'm trying to

649
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 1: constantly be aware of that. I have my binoculars, I

650
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 1: have my notepad. So I like the fact that it's

651
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 1: less crowded on the sideline for sure, John McLean joining

652
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 1: us from the Houston Chronicle. General I don't like talking

653
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 1: about salary cap stuff and things like that. I think

654
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 1: as a sports fan the two things that aggravate people

655
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,960
Speaker 1: more than anything or injuries and contract stuff. But just

656
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 1: tell me this, with this year being a down revenue

657
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 1: year for the league and next year's cap being lower,

658
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 1: how do you think that's all going to play out

659
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 1: with some of the things that Texans would like to

660
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 1: get done contractually and how they have to navigate through

661
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 1: that moving forward. Well, first of all, you've got a

662
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 1: floor of a cap next year to one hundred and

663
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 1: seventy five million. In a normal year it would go

664
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 1: up from one it would go up from one night

665
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 1: to about two OA to two teen. You're not gonna

666
00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 1: have that, so team have to be prepared. The Texans

667
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 1: have redone three contracts that helped them free up about

668
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:12,560
Speaker 1: eight million, Angelo Blackson, Sinil Kellamte and Zach Fulton, and

669
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 1: that every little bit helps and that will help them,

670
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 1: I believe. And they're getting Watson designed by the start

671
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,239
Speaker 1: of the season. They still want to do Zach Gunningham.

672
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:26,840
Speaker 1: Texians have been rolling over money from one year to

673
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 1: the next, which is very smart for them to do,

674
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 1: and I think they'll continue to do that and has

675
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:36,319
Speaker 1: been very important to keep an eye on it now

676
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:42,759
Speaker 1: when they crank up the new TV and streaming negotiations,

677
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 1: that one hundred and seventy five floor could rise even

678
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:51,320
Speaker 1: without fans in the stands generally. You mentioned David Johnson

679
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,320
Speaker 1: a little while ago at Jordan Thomas, two guys that

680
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 1: really stood out to you now that you've got now

681
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 1: that we're getting into the third fourth day, are there

682
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:00,399
Speaker 1: other players that you want to keep an eye Are

683
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 1: there more than intrigue you. We know that Kenny Stills

684
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 1: and Dylan Cole came off their respective list to be

685
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,279
Speaker 1: active for today, so I know I'm anxious to see them.

686
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:10,800
Speaker 1: When there are a few players that you want to

687
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 1: keep your eye on over the next few days that

688
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:14,279
Speaker 1: you haven't had a chance to watch maybe the first

689
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:18,000
Speaker 1: few days, well, I don't care about veterans like that.

690
00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:21,200
Speaker 1: You know what they can do if they're healthy. The

691
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 1: ones I care about are the new players. I think

692
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 1: I'm going to do something on Eric Murray today because

693
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:29,640
Speaker 1: he's going to be available on his Zoom. He's a

694
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 1: starting safety with Justin Reid. He's played up, he's played back.

695
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 1: O'Brien's talked to him up and I don't know much

696
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,480
Speaker 1: about him other than he was not a regular starter

697
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,919
Speaker 1: at Cleveland or Kansas City, and they're counting on him,

698
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:49,680
Speaker 1: and I let Ross Blacklock and Jonathan Grenard, two top

699
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 1: draft georges. I know they're real on cornerback John Reid

700
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:59,320
Speaker 1: after their virtual ball season program. So and new players

701
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,879
Speaker 1: like that, especially like like we mentioned David Johnson, even

702
00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:04,919
Speaker 1: though he's a veteran, he's been in the league now

703
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 1: this is sixth season, and considering he had an injury

704
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 1: played season in which he was bitched, and it's and

705
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 1: he's own important he is to the team every time

706
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:20,239
Speaker 1: he's on the field. I'm watching him and the Daling call.

707
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 1: You know, everybody loves doing call. He just got to

708
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,759
Speaker 1: stay health and he hasn't been able to do that.

709
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:30,800
Speaker 1: And Kenny Steals, you know, they got high expectations for Stills.

710
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 1: You put him out there with Will Fuller, and this

711
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 1: is no team can put three established receivers on the

712
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:42,400
Speaker 1: field like the Texas Kent and I'm staying established and

713
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:45,799
Speaker 1: that would be Fuller, Cooks and Steals all who ran

714
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 1: into four threes at the combat people say Fuller ran

715
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:52,399
Speaker 1: four twos. That was unofficial. Officially he's four three two

716
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:56,320
Speaker 1: and then gob was a slow four or four six.

717
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,640
Speaker 1: And even though he's older, those guys can still move.

718
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,239
Speaker 1: And I don't know often that Bill of Brian and

719
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,960
Speaker 1: Tim Kelly are gonna have four wives at the same time,

720
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 1: but you know they will, and it's going to be

721
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:12,279
Speaker 1: cantilizing for fans to watch that kind of speed. John.

722
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,760
Speaker 1: We were hoping Duke Edge of four could somehow find

723
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:18,440
Speaker 1: his way into the pass rush rotation or make things

724
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:22,080
Speaker 1: work out in year three for himself after missing last

725
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 1: year with an injury. But he's gone. So tell me

726
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 1: about the depth at pass rush with Grenard and Jacob

727
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:32,759
Speaker 1: Martin behind Scarlett Whitney Watt, what do you think of

728
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:39,320
Speaker 1: the group? The problem with outside linebackers as inside and

729
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 1: at thirty four, they usually get nicked up. And that's

730
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,279
Speaker 1: one thing that Dura Billy of an Argot McKinney and

731
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,960
Speaker 1: Zach Cunningham. I don't think it's enough attention. But you

732
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 1: know they've got four guys an outside linebacker. When I

733
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:57,279
Speaker 1: talked about them in the offseason, I never mentioned I

734
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:01,359
Speaker 1: never mentioned to gage four because we have see we

735
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: haven't seen Duke in in in the past, so I'm

736
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:11,799
Speaker 1: not sure exactly how that's going to play out. But

737
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,319
Speaker 1: if they stay healthy, they got four guys they can

738
00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:18,279
Speaker 1: count on. General, it feels like with this roster, and

739
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:19,799
Speaker 1: you mentioned it, there are a lot of veterans. It

740
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:21,800
Speaker 1: feels like there are a lot of things in place.

741
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,400
Speaker 1: But do you feel like there are some training camp

742
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 1: battles that have sort of have to take place over

743
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:30,600
Speaker 1: the next few weeks, Because I know Mark and I

744
00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 1: have talked about some of that, and I look at

745
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 1: it and go, man, I really feel like there's some

746
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,239
Speaker 1: things that we are are most things we already know.

747
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:39,840
Speaker 1: But do you look at it and say, Okay, I

748
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,960
Speaker 1: think there's training camp battles at these particular positions and

749
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 1: these spots have got to work themselves out before September tenth.

750
00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:50,239
Speaker 1: They don't have many starting jobs up for grabs. This

751
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:53,040
Speaker 1: is the most experienced team I've seen the Texans as

752
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:56,320
Speaker 1: since two twelve when they were coming off their first

753
00:38:56,320 --> 00:39:00,560
Speaker 1: division title. You know, they got their starting safeties, they

754
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:04,560
Speaker 1: got their top corners, they got their four linebackers, they've

755
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:08,759
Speaker 1: got their defensive lineman, and Brandon Dunn's going to start

756
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,759
Speaker 1: at the nose tackle Blacks in it right in at

757
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 1: some point. I don't know if it'll be this season

758
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:17,920
Speaker 1: because Blackclock didn't have the advantage of the off season program,

759
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 1: but Ross Blackclock's going to be that right end, and

760
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 1: so it's just a matter of how quick can he

761
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,319
Speaker 1: be in get in there. Ken Jonathan Grennard beat out

762
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 1: Brandon Scarlett Brands an experience, smart player who's been around,

763
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:33,520
Speaker 1: and it's going to be hard for a rookie to

764
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,640
Speaker 1: step in and start unless there's an opening, and there's not.

765
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:40,800
Speaker 1: Offensive line set, wide receivers set, tight ends are set,

766
00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 1: and so running backs set. So the way I look

767
00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:47,640
Speaker 1: at it in the competition is for backup roles and

768
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,719
Speaker 1: because they have that experience, that is so good for

769
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:54,279
Speaker 1: special teams. If the Saint Tracy Smith was in his

770
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,000
Speaker 1: first year and they were coming off a bad year

771
00:39:57,120 --> 00:40:00,880
Speaker 1: and they needed players to play on scial teams, they

772
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:04,360
Speaker 1: got most of their special teamers back. This team is

773
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 1: in good position as far as starting positions. It looks

774
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,840
Speaker 1: to me like the only real battles are for Dept.

775
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:14,360
Speaker 1: John What do you have going out on the Houston

776
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 1: Chronicle Stories every Day podcasts every day. I hope we're outside.

777
00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 1: My car right now has gone from seventy three to

778
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:25,520
Speaker 1: seventy nine. But from whatever it is, it's going to

779
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:29,040
Speaker 1: be nicer than usual. I'm eager to see them outside,

780
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 1: although it is fun when they put on the pads,

781
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:34,920
Speaker 1: all right. John McClain from the Houston Chronicle in Texas

782

Speaker 1: Has Johnny changed his mind on the rookie who might

786
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 1: have the most impact of all of them, of the

919
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:46,080
Speaker 1: looks like he belongs. This is whatever the sport. You know,

920
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:49,200
Speaker 1: does he look like he belongs? He looks like he belongs,

921
00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:52,120
Speaker 1: But so does Blacklock right and Read two has made

922
00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:54,720
Speaker 1: some plays out there. And those are the three guys

923
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:56,800
Speaker 1: on defense we're focusing on here as far as the

924
00:48:56,880 --> 00:49:00,160
Speaker 1: rookies go, um, and there are other people that you're

925
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:03,400
Speaker 1: gonna hear more about undrafted free agents. This is a

926
00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:06,800
Speaker 1: very different year the rosters at eighty it could The

927
00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:09,879
Speaker 1: Pro Football Talk ran a story about, hey, they could

928
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:13,600
Speaker 1: cut down faster than you think because with no preseason games,

929
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:16,160
Speaker 1: you don't need to fill the time, so to speak.

930
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:20,600
Speaker 1: And Bill O'Brien said, and I wrote about this on

931
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:24,680
Speaker 1: Houston Texans dot com and he was quoted after practice

932
00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:27,120
Speaker 1: on Saturday. Look, we're at eighty, but we're really at

933
00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:29,239
Speaker 1: seventy because of injuries, and you know, guys that you're

934
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:32,480
Speaker 1: kind of sitting for load management. He didn't use that term.

935
00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:35,320
Speaker 1: I did so at seventy. He's like, basically, we're getting

936
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,840
Speaker 1: ready for the season. And yes, they're getting ready for

937
00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:40,600
Speaker 1: the season. They don't have to play preseason games. They've

938
00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:44,239
Speaker 1: got a couple of scrimmages interest squads. So tell me

939
00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:48,759
Speaker 1: about these three rookies, Blacklock, Bernard. We'll get to read later.

940
00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:52,120
Speaker 1: Let's just focus on those two. Have you changed who

941
00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 1: you think could have the most impact on this football

942
00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:57,360
Speaker 1: team in the short term. No, When you think about,

943
00:49:57,520 --> 00:50:00,360
Speaker 1: you know, order in your draft order, obviously Rocks Russ's

944
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,280
Speaker 1: second rounder, John Gunards, the third rounder, Hack fourth rounder,

945
00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:05,600
Speaker 1: John Reed, a fourth rounder, and then a fifth rounder

946
00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:08,799
Speaker 1: Isaiah Coulter, I mean you just go by that that

947
00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:11,880
Speaker 1: you would think that's the priority order. Um, if you

948
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:13,560
Speaker 1: just went by that, and I think that's probably the

949
00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:17,760
Speaker 1: way it goes. I do think that watching them use

950
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:20,560
Speaker 1: these first couple of days. First of all, as I

951
00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:24,120
Speaker 1: said earlier, those are all guys that had I seen

952
00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:26,879
Speaker 1: them prior to I would have said Yeah, they could

953
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,279
Speaker 1: fit in our locker room tomorrow. I always do that

954
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:31,440
Speaker 1: when the bowl, when the when the bowl comes in here,

955
00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:34,000
Speaker 1: uh Texas ball comes in here, or the kickoff game

956
00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:35,560
Speaker 1: is in here, and I always kind of look at

957
00:50:35,560 --> 00:50:37,879
Speaker 1: players and go, Okay, can that guy? Could that guy

958
00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:39,719
Speaker 1: fit in our locker room? Does that guy look like

959
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:41,920
Speaker 1: he belongs in our locker room? Yeah, because you see

960
00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:44,480
Speaker 1: a lot of guys in college. You see kids in

961
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:47,560
Speaker 1: college six four, three hundred pounds or whatever the case

962
00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:49,960
Speaker 1: might be, and you're like, yeah, I know, ex three

963
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:52,479
Speaker 1: hundred pounds, but that just is not the body type

964
00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:56,200
Speaker 1: that fits in the NFL. These three, the three defensive

965
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:59,800
Speaker 1: players in particular, they all physically fit. I stood in

966
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:05,120
Speaker 1: to Ross on Friday, Friday afternoons practice and I just

967
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:09,320
Speaker 1: kept I kept looking at him like you're just built different.

968
00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:11,400
Speaker 1: Like I didn't say that to him, but that was

969
00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:13,560
Speaker 1: what I was thinking. I kept thinking he just looked

970
00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:16,120
Speaker 1: so different from everybody. And the first name that came

971
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:18,000
Speaker 1: to mind, and I sort of hate that this is

972
00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:20,080
Speaker 1: the name that comes to mind because the name I'm

973
00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:21,880
Speaker 1: using is a guy who ended up being a complete

974
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:24,560
Speaker 1: total bust. But the problem, the reason he became a

975
00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:28,040
Speaker 1: bust was not because of his body size or anything.

976
00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:31,439
Speaker 1: He just wasn't ready to be a professional in the NFL.

977
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:33,200
Speaker 1: And as Robert kim Chi you played at Old Miss

978
00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:37,480
Speaker 1: kim Dchi was about sixty three, three hundred pounds and

979
00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:41,600
Speaker 1: just had thick trunk legs upstairs. I mean he just

980
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:44,720
Speaker 1: was cut out a chiseled out a diamond, it seemed.

981
00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:48,640
Speaker 1: And he was agile. He was quick like a cat.

982
00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:51,040
Speaker 1: I mean he could just bounce and played on his

983
00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:53,640
Speaker 1: toes and that was not something you saw from guys

984
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:56,120
Speaker 1: those side that that size, and I see that with Ross,

985
00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:58,399
Speaker 1: just the way that he bounces around and the way

986
00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:01,359
Speaker 1: that he moves and the strength that he plays with

987
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:04,319
Speaker 1: My gosh, I was I just had a hard time

988
00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:05,840
Speaker 1: Friday kind of keep my eyes off and I just

989
00:52:05,880 --> 00:52:09,480
Speaker 1: wanted to watch more of him. I wanted him on

990
00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:11,920
Speaker 1: the field as much as possible so I could greedily

991
00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:16,080
Speaker 1: watch him. And I think John Grenard's the same way.

992
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:19,479
Speaker 1: You see the explosiveness and the burst off the ball,

993
00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:23,560
Speaker 1: the first pass rush, first pass rush one on one

994
00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:25,680
Speaker 1: that I saw Grenard. I was kind of watching it

995
00:52:25,719 --> 00:52:27,840
Speaker 1: through kind of a group of people, and I just

996
00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:32,520
Speaker 1: saw this blur just on an anglish and Charlie Heck.

997
00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:34,279
Speaker 1: I think I think Charlie Heck was the tackle. I

998
00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:36,680
Speaker 1: don't know for sure. I thought it was him, and

999
00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:39,600
Speaker 1: Grenard just came right at him, and Heck wasn't totally

1000
00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:42,719
Speaker 1: sure what to do, and then John just went He

1001
00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:45,880
Speaker 1: threw some Bruce Lee hands on him and went inside

1002
00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:48,439
Speaker 1: and got clean to the quarterback and all of a sudden,

1003
00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:51,000
Speaker 1: you just heard the defensive lineman just like who They

1004
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:55,319
Speaker 1: all went crazy. You just see so many good athletic,

1005
00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:59,680
Speaker 1: elite traits with these guys. And the one thing about

1006
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:02,560
Speaker 1: Grenar too, when you see him, you're just like, he

1007
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:04,480
Speaker 1: reminds me. I don't even want to use the comparison,

1008
00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:06,719
Speaker 1: but he reminds me of somebody that's in our division

1009
00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:09,440
Speaker 1: that has been one of the better pass rushers in

1010
00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:13,880
Speaker 1: the league from a body, size, build and everything. And

1011
00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:15,719
Speaker 1: the fact he ended up going in the third round.

1012
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:20,080
Speaker 1: That's justin Houston from the Colts. Now, that dude had

1013
00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:22,960
Speaker 1: some serious juice when he was with the Chiefs and

1014
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:24,719
Speaker 1: knee and jury took a little bit away, but we

1015
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:27,120
Speaker 1: even saw it last year. But just the way he's built,

1016
00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:32,400
Speaker 1: huge trunk, I mean, like Kardashian like, but he uses

1017
00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:36,440
Speaker 1: that strength and that explosiveness, he uses that trunk to

1018
00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:39,000
Speaker 1: get him get himself where he needs to go. He's

1019
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:40,960
Speaker 1: good with his hands, and he just has a knack

1020
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:43,440
Speaker 1: for finding the quarterback. And that was Justin Houston coming

1021
00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:45,719
Speaker 1: out of Georgia. Now, Justin Houston would not have been

1022
00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:48,760
Speaker 1: a third rounder if he didn't have some other issues

1023
00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:50,800
Speaker 1: that he got passed when he got to the league.

1024
00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:56,400
Speaker 1: But Kansas City ended up with this gem because Justin

1025
00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:58,320
Speaker 1: Houston got it together once he got to the pros

1026
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:00,640
Speaker 1: and then they maximized it. Now, I don't know that

1027
00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:03,759
Speaker 1: John garnardwover get the twenty something sacks like Justin Houston had,

1028
00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:05,640
Speaker 1: but you can tell that the ability to rush to

1029
00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:07,520
Speaker 1: quarterback and those elite traits are there, and John Reid

1030
00:54:07,560 --> 00:54:10,080
Speaker 1: has them too. John Reid just size wise, the way

1031
00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:13,959
Speaker 1: he moves his quickness, he's quick, Oh man, he's quick,

1032
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:15,879
Speaker 1: and he did at the combine he had a sub

1033
00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:20,160
Speaker 1: sub seventh second three cone and just flew through it.

1034
00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:22,680
Speaker 1: And you can see that manifest itself on the field

1035
00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:26,240
Speaker 1: and coverage. So physically, when you look at draft picks,

1036
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:29,120
Speaker 1: you look at elite traits. What elite traits that these

1037
00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:31,000
Speaker 1: guys have do they have them? And even though the

1038
00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:32,879
Speaker 1: Texans didn't have a first rounder, I think they found

1039
00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:35,319
Speaker 1: some guys with some elite traits for sure. Well it's

1040
00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:38,840
Speaker 1: it is a regret of mine to not have preseason

1041
00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:40,919
Speaker 1: games to see these guys try to shine a little

1042
00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:44,399
Speaker 1: bit more. Get some reps there, because, as McLean was saying,

1043
00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:46,920
Speaker 1: didn't you know what the veterans are gonna do? You know?

1044
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:48,960
Speaker 1: You want to see some of these young guys. Plus,

1045
00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:52,560
Speaker 1: it would give me a chance to learn and really

1046
00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:59,200
Speaker 1: work the pronunciation of a zoua alufahah. Big z big

1167
01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:23,880
Speaker 1: we'll get you updated on those. You're not gonna get

1168
01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:25,760
Speaker 1: to see him. I'm gonna tell you that, right now

1169
01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:29,080
Speaker 1: as Bill O'Brien, I don't think he wants to show

1170
01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:33,560
Speaker 1: much of anything to anybody. The NFL network actually called

1171
01:02:33,680 --> 01:02:38,080
Speaker 1: me since I'm broadcasting director here. They wanted to know

1172
01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:41,040
Speaker 1: if they could show some action on the NFL network

1173
01:02:41,160 --> 01:02:46,280
Speaker 1: of whatever scrimmages may occur interest squad, and I thought, yeah,

1174
01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:48,760
Speaker 1: I just emailed them back right away. I said, listen, um,

1175
01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:51,760
Speaker 1: you know I'll ask, but I know what team answer

1176
01:02:51,840 --> 01:02:54,960
Speaker 1: is going to be. Don't look for a different answer.

1177
01:02:55,760 --> 01:02:58,600
Speaker 1: Don't expect anything here, are you kidding? And I think

1178
01:02:58,600 --> 01:03:01,280
Speaker 1: all teams have to feel this way, and I know

1179
01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:04,160
Speaker 1: that some teams I don't even actually know this. I

1180
01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:08,000
Speaker 1: thought some teams might be doing some scrimmages for the fans.

1181
01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:11,360
Speaker 1: But here's the thing. Among those fans will be scouts

1182
01:03:11,400 --> 01:03:14,200
Speaker 1: from other NFL teams. You can bet on that. Oh,

1183
01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:16,439
Speaker 1: you can mail want to get a good look. I mean,

1184
01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:19,840
Speaker 1: this is a tremendous competitive advantage for all teams to

1185
01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:23,080
Speaker 1: just unveil whatever they're gonna unveil on opening day. And

1186
01:03:23,120 --> 01:03:27,680
Speaker 1: you haven't seen squat now usually Johnny in the joint practices,

1187
01:03:28,120 --> 01:03:30,440
Speaker 1: you're not showing much anyway, but you get a vibe,

1188
01:03:30,440 --> 01:03:32,240
Speaker 1: you get a feel like, oh, they might use Randall

1189
01:03:32,320 --> 01:03:35,080
Speaker 1: Cobb like this, they're Brandon Cooks like that, They're gonna

1190
01:03:35,120 --> 01:03:38,680
Speaker 1: show some stuff. Yeah right. The biggest thing is you

1191
01:03:38,720 --> 01:03:41,960
Speaker 1: get a chance to see other other players that might

1192
01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:45,080
Speaker 1: you know, you get to see the roster from forty

1193
01:03:45,200 --> 01:03:48,080
Speaker 1: four through ninety That's what you get a chance to see.

1194
01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:51,680
Speaker 1: And think how many times we've watched a guy at

1195
01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:55,480
Speaker 1: some point during during a practice and then that guy

1196
01:03:55,600 --> 01:03:58,480
Speaker 1: ended up with us at some point because we saw

1197
01:03:58,520 --> 01:04:01,120
Speaker 1: him joint practices. Hey we remembered him from the year

1198
01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:03,880
Speaker 1: before or two years prior. Hey, let's bring him in

1199
01:04:03,920 --> 01:04:06,640
Speaker 1: and see what we've got that's here. I mean, that's

1200
01:04:06,680 --> 01:04:10,560
Speaker 1: a huge help to these uh pro scouts, college scouts.

1201
01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:13,479
Speaker 1: It you think about it now, I mean, think about

1202
01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:15,680
Speaker 1: this Mark. Just as you were talking about that, it

1203
01:04:15,680 --> 01:04:18,720
Speaker 1: made me think if you're the Saints, the Bucks and

1204
01:04:18,760 --> 01:04:21,920
Speaker 1: the Falcons getting ready for the Panthers, Like, what are

1205
01:04:21,920 --> 01:04:24,720
Speaker 1: you doing right now? You're watching a lot of Baylor?

1206
01:04:25,080 --> 01:04:27,200
Speaker 1: I guess you watch Yeah, are you watching a lot

1207
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:29,360
Speaker 1: of LSU because of Joe Brady running the offense? Oh,

1208
01:04:29,400 --> 01:04:31,560
Speaker 1: you're right, You're you're definitely watching a lot of LSU.

1209
01:04:31,720 --> 01:04:34,360
Speaker 1: So I mean but you're you're flying blind. Really yeah,

1210
01:04:34,400 --> 01:04:36,840
Speaker 1: that I mean you talk about advantage and they got

1211
01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:39,360
Speaker 1: Teddy and they got McCaffrey and who knows how they're

1212
01:04:39,360 --> 01:04:42,720
Speaker 1: gonna use him, and that that could be really special

1213
01:04:42,760 --> 01:04:46,040
Speaker 1: for them on opening day. Now that goes away pretty quickly.

1214
01:04:46,560 --> 01:04:49,520
Speaker 1: We got one game, and you know, you can't reinvent

1215
01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:52,360
Speaker 1: yourself between game one and game two. Now you can

1216
01:04:52,480 --> 01:04:55,720
Speaker 1: game plan, of course and add some wrinkles, but it's

1217
01:04:55,760 --> 01:04:57,920
Speaker 1: not like, listen, these first four games, we're running the

1218

1220
01:05:04,640 --> 01:05:06,840
Speaker 1: of surprise that can't happen. All right, let's break down

1221
01:05:06,840 --> 01:05:08,520
Speaker 1: a position group here. We do it every day, and

1222
01:05:08,560 --> 01:05:14,000
Speaker 1: today it's the running backs, Johnny, the men who carry

1223
01:05:14,040 --> 01:05:20,080
Speaker 1: the hug skin through rain, sleet, snow, coronavirus. Let's go

1224
01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:23,680
Speaker 1: over some of these guys. Okay, where you want to start?

1225
01:05:23,720 --> 01:05:26,200
Speaker 1: Give me a name? All right, let's go. Let's start

1226
01:05:26,240 --> 01:05:30,040
Speaker 1: with the man David Johnson acquired in the offseason sixth

1227
01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:32,440
Speaker 1: year out of Northern Iowa, six one, two hundred and

1228
01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:35,120
Speaker 1: twenty five pounds. What's he got, man, he's got guns,

1229
01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:38,320
Speaker 1: he's got size. Watching him on Friday, Mark, I was

1230
01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:41,920
Speaker 1: I don't want to say amazed, but I just was

1231
01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:45,000
Speaker 1: shocked and surprised in a good way, just how he

1232
01:05:45,200 --> 01:05:49,840
Speaker 1: glided through a bunch of big bodies and even and

1233
01:05:50,760 --> 01:05:54,760
Speaker 1: ran past smaller bodies. He just has a way of

1234
01:05:54,800 --> 01:05:57,640
Speaker 1: getting up field in a hurry. I think he's a

1235
01:05:57,640 --> 01:06:00,240
Speaker 1: good zone runner. I don't know that he's I don't

1236
01:06:00,240 --> 01:06:02,120
Speaker 1: know how he will be in a power scheme and

1237
01:06:02,240 --> 01:06:03,840
Speaker 1: how much power. But the Texans run a lot of

1238
01:06:03,840 --> 01:06:05,280
Speaker 1: his own. I mean that's what they want to do.

1239
01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:07,840
Speaker 1: They can do some different things up front. But man,

1240
01:06:07,920 --> 01:06:10,160
Speaker 1: he has good vision. He likes to cut back kind

1241
01:06:10,200 --> 01:06:13,320
Speaker 1: of like Arian does. But boy, he catches the ball

1242
01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:15,840
Speaker 1: so clean and so well. I think, as Bill Obrin

1243
01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:18,959
Speaker 1: has said numerous times, a three down running back. He's

1244
01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:22,640
Speaker 1: not Arian Foster. They're different. And later in camp, I'm

1245
01:06:22,640 --> 01:06:25,280
Speaker 1: sure we'll talk about how they're different. But the fact

1246
01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:26,800
Speaker 1: that you have a three down running back that you

1247
01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:29,520
Speaker 1: can rely on. And again, what do we always say

1248
01:06:29,880 --> 01:06:34,080
Speaker 1: if he can just stay healthy? Right, if he can, oh, boy, well,

1249
01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:37,560
Speaker 1: and if he's your go to guy, remember hid it

1250
01:06:37,640 --> 01:06:40,120
Speaker 1: had only ten catches last year. David Johnson can have

1251
01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:41,960
Speaker 1: a whole lot more than that if he's healthy. All right,

1252
01:06:42,040 --> 01:06:44,959
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson, who Bill O'Brien calls it every dawn back

1253
01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:47,560
Speaker 1: five nine two hundred ten pounds out of the University

1254
01:06:47,560 --> 01:06:49,440
Speaker 1: of Miami, And the reason he calls him an every

1255
01:06:49,480 --> 01:06:51,680
Speaker 1: down running back mark is because Duke can run the

1256
01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:54,080
Speaker 1: ball between the tackles. Remember that Buffalo game last year,

1257
01:06:54,240 --> 01:06:57,400
Speaker 1: we can't get anything done. JJ gets the sack, they

1258
01:06:57,400 --> 01:06:59,280
Speaker 1: have to kick the fuel goal. The first play of

1259
01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:02,720
Speaker 1: that drive where we scored, where Deshaun scored carrying guys

1260
01:07:02,720 --> 01:07:06,240
Speaker 1: in dance zone, was a Duke Johnson inside run, and

1261
01:07:06,440 --> 01:07:10,600
Speaker 1: he just kind of sloomed his way through those guys

1262
01:07:10,640 --> 01:07:13,600
Speaker 1: to get a ten yard first down and kind of

1263
01:07:13,640 --> 01:07:16,720
Speaker 1: get things rolling. Duke can run the ball inside and

1264
01:07:16,800 --> 01:07:19,360
Speaker 1: be effective running the ball inside. But Duke does all

1265
01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:21,680
Speaker 1: the little things for you. Remember how on that two

1266
01:07:21,720 --> 01:07:24,360
Speaker 1: point conversion he kind of peeled off and boxed out

1267
01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:28,240
Speaker 1: Tremaine Edmonds from tackling to Shawn so Deshaun can get

1268
01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:30,280
Speaker 1: in the end zone. Duke does the little things. He's

1269
01:07:30,320 --> 01:07:32,160
Speaker 1: I think one of the smartest players on his team.

1270
01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:34,760
Speaker 1: He just seemed to pick everything up last year really well,

1271
01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:37,480
Speaker 1: I love everything about Duke. I think he and David

1272
01:07:37,560 --> 01:07:40,400
Speaker 1: are the perfect one two compliment for this offense and

1273
01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:42,280
Speaker 1: what they want to do. As far as known come

1274
01:07:42,320 --> 01:07:45,680
Speaker 1: out of these running the football, that's it. Everybody else

1275
01:07:45,840 --> 01:07:48,840
Speaker 1: unknown commodities and doesn't mean they're not good though. Karan

1276
01:07:48,960 --> 01:07:51,680
Speaker 1: Higg Dan five ten, two hundred two pounds out of

1277
01:07:51,680 --> 01:07:54,200
Speaker 1: a University of Michigan. When I first saw Karan at

1278
01:07:54,240 --> 01:07:56,440
Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl a couple of years ago, I remember

1279
01:07:56,520 --> 01:07:59,720
Speaker 1: standing next to him thinking that program says five ten.

1280
01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:02,640
Speaker 1: I was like, you're five nine. I didn't say that

1281
01:08:02,680 --> 01:08:04,959
Speaker 1: to him, but that's why I felt. But I'd watched

1282
01:08:05,040 --> 01:08:07,120
Speaker 1: him at Michigan and I was like, this guy's fearless.

1283
01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:10,760
Speaker 1: He's fearless. He runs inside, he is not scared to

1284
01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:12,440
Speaker 1: run between the tackles, and at the Senior Bowl the

1285
01:08:12,560 --> 01:08:14,160
Speaker 1: entire time, I don't think I ever saw him bounce

1286
01:08:14,240 --> 01:08:17,599
Speaker 1: or run to the outside. He was determined to stay

1287
01:08:17,680 --> 01:08:19,400
Speaker 1: to the gap in the hole where the player was

1288
01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:22,000
Speaker 1: supposed to go and keep that thing between the tackles

1289
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:24,400
Speaker 1: and go north and south. He's not a dance runner.

1290
01:08:24,640 --> 01:08:28,400
Speaker 1: He's short, but he's not small. He's stock. He catch

1291
01:08:28,439 --> 01:08:31,559
Speaker 1: the ball. I think does some good things. Good battle

1292
01:08:31,680 --> 01:08:33,599
Speaker 1: for the number three spot, and he's gonna be writing

1293
01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:37,719
Speaker 1: that mix. Buddy how who shines in a preseason game

1294
01:08:37,920 --> 01:08:41,320
Speaker 1: last year, and he's a great special teams player, six

1295
01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:44,599
Speaker 1: one third year FAU. I don't want to I don't

1296
01:08:44,640 --> 01:08:46,519
Speaker 1: want to want to make sure I say this, and

1297
01:08:46,640 --> 01:08:50,840
Speaker 1: it is a compliment. Buddy doesn't waste any time he

1298
01:08:50,880 --> 01:08:54,160
Speaker 1: gets the football and he goes downhill. If you're in

1299
01:08:54,200 --> 01:08:57,160
Speaker 1: the way, he'll run you over, if you're at a

1300
01:08:57,160 --> 01:08:59,120
Speaker 1: point where he maybe can make a one cut on

1301
01:08:59,160 --> 01:09:04,000
Speaker 1: you and go. He doesn't dance. It is downhill all day,

1302
01:09:04,040 --> 01:09:07,000
Speaker 1: every day. And he's been so good on special teams

1303
01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:09,080
Speaker 1: that we've we've wanted to have him around. He is

1304
01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:12,200
Speaker 1: the he is the proverbial great teammate. He does anything

1305
01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:14,280
Speaker 1: he's asked to do. But I think we saw in

1306
01:09:14,320 --> 01:09:16,680
Speaker 1: that preseason game. I remember Dre getting excited about what

1307
01:09:16,720 --> 01:09:19,920
Speaker 1: he can do. There's no frills, there's what you see

1308
01:09:19,960 --> 01:09:21,799
Speaker 1: is what you get. You're gonna give him the football

1309
01:09:21,880 --> 01:09:24,320
Speaker 1: inside zone, maybe some outside zone, and he's going downhill

1310
01:09:24,360 --> 01:09:26,720
Speaker 1: at you and get ready, you're gonna have to tackle

1311
01:09:26,760 --> 01:09:28,680
Speaker 1: a two hundred and twenty pound back. Good luck with that,

1312
01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:32,519
Speaker 1: all right, let's go to Cullen Gillespia before we get

1313
01:09:32,560 --> 01:09:36,479
Speaker 1: to the undrafted rookie free agent as Gillespie a six

1314
01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:40,679
Speaker 1: two two thirty five out of an am Gillie he

1315
01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:44,919
Speaker 1: does so much. I think with Gillie, everybody knew Okay's

1316
01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:47,640
Speaker 1: twelfth man. He's a special teams guy. He can do

1317
01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:49,639
Speaker 1: a little bit of everything. How much are they gonna

1318
01:09:49,680 --> 01:09:52,080
Speaker 1: use a fullback? What are they gonna do? Well? In

1319
01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:54,720
Speaker 1: that Buffalo game, he played a huge role in that game.

1320
01:09:55,040 --> 01:09:58,280
Speaker 1: He made that key block under Shaun's touchdown run. He

1321
01:09:58,320 --> 01:10:02,080
Speaker 1: can catch the football, he runs four or five. He's

1322
01:10:02,120 --> 01:10:04,080
Speaker 1: the kind of weapon you really want to have around

1323
01:10:04,120 --> 01:10:06,839
Speaker 1: because he'll learn everything he needs to learn on the offense.

1324
01:10:06,960 --> 01:10:09,120
Speaker 1: He'll do anything you ask him to do. You know,

1325
01:10:09,160 --> 01:10:12,160
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a rock star on special teams. So

1326
01:10:12,320 --> 01:10:15,519
Speaker 1: he's always going to be around. And in this world

1327
01:10:15,560 --> 01:10:17,760
Speaker 1: of COVID and do you know if you have it

1328
01:10:17,840 --> 01:10:19,600
Speaker 1: or you don't, could you go into a game and

1329
01:10:20,280 --> 01:10:23,000
Speaker 1: maybe you don't have it, maybe you have, maybe you

1330
01:10:23,040 --> 01:10:25,040
Speaker 1: lose a running back because of that stuff. Well, you

1331
01:10:25,080 --> 01:10:26,639
Speaker 1: have a guy in call Glespie you can at least

1332
01:10:26,680 --> 01:10:28,880
Speaker 1: rely on. He's as fast as anybody to have the

1333
01:10:28,920 --> 01:10:31,960
Speaker 1: backfield at four or five, he's maybe faster than some

1334
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:34,160
Speaker 1: of the guys in the backfield. So I love having

1335
01:10:34,240 --> 01:10:36,120
Speaker 1: him around. Hopefully we'll get a chance to see him

1336
01:10:36,120 --> 01:10:38,360
Speaker 1: in practice here soon. I know he practiced on Friday.

1337
01:10:38,360 --> 01:10:40,120
Speaker 1: I don't think you practiced on Saturday. But we'll see

1338
01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:41,639
Speaker 1: what's going on with him, and hopefully he's all right

1339
01:10:42,040 --> 01:10:43,479
Speaker 1: and we'll get ready to go with him. I think

1340
01:10:43,560 --> 01:10:46,080
Speaker 1: he's just the type of the type of player that

1341
01:10:46,120 --> 01:10:47,840
Speaker 1: you have to have in a roster. He's like the

1342
01:10:47,920 --> 01:10:52,200
Speaker 1: Nate Ebner, Matt Slater type of player, that guy you

1343
01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:54,120
Speaker 1: gotta have to just do anything for your team, be

1344
01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:56,439
Speaker 1: a great leader and a great professional. All right, tell

1345
01:10:56,479 --> 01:10:59,960
Speaker 1: me about the rookie from all mess undrafted, Scottie Phillips five.

1346
01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:04,559
Speaker 1: I've two hundred ten. He's thick, and I thought on

1347
01:11:04,640 --> 01:11:07,479
Speaker 1: Saturday or Friday at practice watching him that he had

1348
01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:09,120
Speaker 1: a little bit more juice than I remember. His best

1349
01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:11,760
Speaker 1: game was right over there at Energy Stadium against Texas Tech.

1350
01:11:11,840 --> 01:11:13,880
Speaker 1: He just went nuts. Now, some people will say Texas

1351
01:11:13,920 --> 01:11:16,720
Speaker 1: Texas defense wasn't that great, which is true, but that

1352
01:11:16,800 --> 01:11:18,640
Speaker 1: was his first game in college after a couple of

1353
01:11:18,680 --> 01:11:20,840
Speaker 1: years of juco and just blew it up two hundred

1354
01:11:20,840 --> 01:11:25,400
Speaker 1: and twenty plus yards and looked good. And he didn't

1355
01:11:25,400 --> 01:11:30,040
Speaker 1: really get back to that point. But he's thick, he's quick,

1356
01:11:30,560 --> 01:11:33,479
Speaker 1: he's got good short area burst. He's the kind of

1357
01:11:33,479 --> 01:11:36,519
Speaker 1: guy that I don't think would ever be your top guy,

1358
01:11:37,080 --> 01:11:40,800
Speaker 1: your top back, but I do think in depending on

1359
01:11:40,840 --> 01:11:43,519
Speaker 1: how things wait and shake out injury wise, he catches

1360
01:11:43,560 --> 01:11:45,200
Speaker 1: the ball. Okay, I think he'd be good in the

1361
01:11:45,240 --> 01:11:48,400
Speaker 1: screen game. But he just like these other guys. They

1362
01:11:48,439 --> 01:11:50,800
Speaker 1: don't dance. They're not a bunch of dancers. Guys that

1363
01:11:50,840 --> 01:11:52,920
Speaker 1: are gonna make you miss. These guys get downhill in

1364
01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:57,160
Speaker 1: a hurry, and they're kind of shorter, stockier, quicker types.

1365
01:11:57,439 --> 01:11:59,559
Speaker 1: So a little getting that hole and that can make

1366
01:11:59,600 --> 01:12:01,160
Speaker 1: you miss a little bit if you need to, if

1367
01:12:01,200 --> 01:12:03,320
Speaker 1: they need to. So I like this. I like this

1368
01:12:03,320 --> 01:12:05,400
Speaker 1: group running backs. No people panted, they didn't drop the

1369
01:12:05,479 --> 01:12:08,639
Speaker 1: running back. What are they gonna do? I don't think

1370
01:12:08,640 --> 01:12:11,200
Speaker 1: they really needed to, to be honest, Well, we're done

1371
01:12:11,200 --> 01:12:13,559
Speaker 1: with the running backs as far as those guys who

1372
01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:17,040
Speaker 1: played the position. However, I've got one more running element

1373
01:12:17,080 --> 01:12:19,759
Speaker 1: for you, and that would be the quarterback. DeShawn Watson

1374
01:12:19,840 --> 01:12:22,880
Speaker 1: his running game because he's probably the third, maybe even

1375
01:12:22,880 --> 01:12:26,240
Speaker 1: the second leading rusher on the twenty twenty Texans depending

1376
01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:28,599
Speaker 1: on how things go. What do you think of Watson

1377
01:12:28,840 --> 01:12:32,600
Speaker 1: as a runner. Well, my hope is that as Deshaun's

1378
01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:37,600
Speaker 1: career continues, we see less and less of that from him,

1379
01:12:38,040 --> 01:12:41,880
Speaker 1: but the threat always has to be there, and I

1380
01:12:41,920 --> 01:12:44,560
Speaker 1: think he'll want it to be there. I think I

1381
01:12:44,560 --> 01:12:46,479
Speaker 1: don't think he wants to carry the ball twenty times

1382
01:12:46,479 --> 01:12:49,000
Speaker 1: a game, but I do think when he sees something

1383
01:12:49,040 --> 01:12:52,240
Speaker 1: wide open on RPO and he can go ten to

1384
01:12:52,280 --> 01:12:54,599
Speaker 1: twelve yards and slide down without taking a hit, He's

1385
01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:56,799
Speaker 1: gonna take it. And that I think is where DeShawn

1386
01:12:56,880 --> 01:13:00,559
Speaker 1: has gotten really really smart. Is can I steal five

1387
01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:02,800
Speaker 1: to seven yards, dive and get down and set up

1388
01:13:02,840 --> 01:13:05,559
Speaker 1: a second in three or a second and five. Yeah,

1389
01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:08,200
Speaker 1: I think he's learned how to do that. He's learned, Okay,

1390
01:13:08,240 --> 01:13:10,719
Speaker 1: I don't have to, you know, fly in the air

1391
01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:12,679
Speaker 1: and try and get this thing in the end zone.

1392
01:13:12,760 --> 01:13:15,880
Speaker 1: I can just get this game, next play, let's go.

1393
01:13:16,200 --> 01:13:18,639
Speaker 1: He I think he's under I think he's understanding more

1394
01:13:18,720 --> 01:13:21,360
Speaker 1: now of what he can do in the run game

1395
01:13:22,040 --> 01:13:25,120
Speaker 1: and limit the hits that he takes as opposed to

1396
01:13:25,160 --> 01:13:27,719
Speaker 1: maybe earlier in his career where he was I say fearless,

1397
01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:29,479
Speaker 1: that wasn't the right word. But he's just trying to

1398
01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:31,479
Speaker 1: get everything he could, just trying to make big plays.

1399
01:13:31,640 --> 01:13:34,200
Speaker 1: I think he understands now, let those things come, and

1400
01:13:34,280 --> 01:13:35,519
Speaker 1: when he needs to make a big play like the

1401
01:13:35,560 --> 01:13:37,560
Speaker 1: one against Buffalo, he pulls it, it takes off and

1402
01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:39,680
Speaker 1: then carry these guys into the end zone. That's the thing.

1403
01:13:39,680 --> 01:13:42,480
Speaker 1: And that's it for our running back position group breakdown.

1404
01:13:42,560 --> 01:13:45,400
Speaker 1: And I'm glad that we included Watson because it is

1405
01:13:45,439 --> 01:13:48,360
Speaker 1: such a factor, his ability to take off with the ball.

1406
01:13:48,439 --> 01:13:52,280
Speaker 1: And you're right, the threat of it. The defense has

1407
01:13:52,320 --> 01:13:54,559
Speaker 1: to be aware. Now it's not to the extent of

1408
01:13:54,800 --> 01:13:59,400
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson in Baltimore, because to me, Lamar Jackson, the

1409
01:13:59,479 --> 01:14:03,160
Speaker 1: threat of him running is terrifying to the d to

1410
01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:07,200
Speaker 1: the point where I think they're hesitant at times to

1411
01:14:07,240 --> 01:14:10,240
Speaker 1: come after him. You know, you're like, we gotta contain,

1412
01:14:10,280 --> 01:14:12,559
Speaker 1: we gotta contain, well contain all day long. Now you're

1413
01:14:12,560 --> 01:14:14,960
Speaker 1: not rushing him and he just sitting there back there

1414
01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:18,479
Speaker 1: picking you apart. You know, he's just hitting crossers all

1415
01:14:18,560 --> 01:14:21,280
Speaker 1: day long. And we saw that up close and personal.

1416
01:14:21,680 --> 01:14:26,440
Speaker 1: I think with these guys, whether it's Watson, maybe not Mahomes,

1417
01:14:26,479 --> 01:14:30,320
Speaker 1: but whether it's Watson or Jackson. And Watson's different than Jackson,

1418
01:14:30,360 --> 01:14:32,560
Speaker 1: I know that. But you got to come after a quarterback,

1419
01:14:32,600 --> 01:14:35,080
Speaker 1: you know, and look and take your lumps as they cut. Look,

1420
01:14:35,320 --> 01:14:37,599
Speaker 1: you came after Watson in the Buffalo game the Bills did,

1421
01:14:37,600 --> 01:14:39,160
Speaker 1: and look what happened at the very end where he

1422
01:14:39,240 --> 01:14:43,679
Speaker 1: escapes from a would be crushing blow sack and hits

1423
01:14:43,720 --> 01:14:46,040
Speaker 1: the biggest play in the history of the franchise, nearly

1424
01:14:46,720 --> 01:14:50,320
Speaker 1: among them. Anyway, Look, okay, you've seen every single one.

1425
01:14:50,400 --> 01:14:52,559
Speaker 1: Let's do it. You brought it up. What let's let's

1426
01:14:52,560 --> 01:14:55,000
Speaker 1: just do it right now. Put it out there. Where

1427
01:14:55,000 --> 01:15:02,480
Speaker 1: does that play ranking, Johnny? Honestly, it's it's definitely top three. Okay,

1428
01:15:02,680 --> 01:15:05,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the Cowboy game out of it, because

1429
01:15:05,160 --> 01:15:07,920
Speaker 1: you know, like those are history making plays, yes, like

1430
01:15:07,960 --> 01:15:11,280
Speaker 1: the Billy Miller touchdown and all that. You know, the

1431
01:15:11,360 --> 01:15:14,240
Speaker 1: Seth Payne sack and everything in that game. But look,

1432
01:15:14,360 --> 01:15:16,639
Speaker 1: let's be honest here. You know you're trying to win

1433
01:15:16,720 --> 01:15:19,360
Speaker 1: playoff games or get into the playoffs. So Kevin Walter

1434
01:15:19,800 --> 01:15:23,160
Speaker 1: in here are the top three. Kevin Walter all right

1435
01:15:23,520 --> 01:15:27,760
Speaker 1: touchdown against the Bengals, Watt pick six Bengals playoffs, and

1436
01:15:27,960 --> 01:15:33,880
Speaker 1: Watson's escape and hitting Taiwan Jones for the field goal spot.

1437
01:15:34,080 --> 01:15:36,040
Speaker 1: That was a chip shot for fair band. They took

1438
01:15:36,040 --> 01:15:38,000
Speaker 1: all the drama out of that field goal. I mean

1439
01:15:38,040 --> 01:15:40,880
Speaker 1: there's still drama too it don't get me wrong. And

1440
01:15:40,960 --> 01:15:43,519
Speaker 1: by the way, I think Andre Ware kicked the field

1441
01:15:43,520 --> 01:15:46,400
Speaker 1: goal of the exact same distance or very similar distance

1442
01:15:47,240 --> 01:15:50,360
Speaker 1: in a high school game. And I want to play

1443
01:15:50,400 --> 01:15:52,680
Speaker 1: that highlight maybe a little bit later on this week.

1444
01:15:52,680 --> 01:15:55,880
Speaker 1: We'll get Andrea on because we have the highlight. It's

1445
01:15:55,880 --> 01:16:01,080
Speaker 1: from Bill Lewis, who just passed recently Alvin Community College KCC,

1446
01:16:01,479 --> 01:16:05,040
Speaker 1: k ACC radio and uh back of the Day and

1447
01:16:05,479 --> 01:16:07,960
Speaker 1: on ray kick to feel coal of that distance and

1448
01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:10,680
Speaker 1: there was fresher to it to win a football game anyway,

1449
01:16:11,000 --> 01:16:15,320
Speaker 1: um I digress. Look the Wat pick six, it's the

1450
01:16:15,360 --> 01:16:18,040
Speaker 1: first playoff win. It was huge and turned the tide

1451
01:16:18,080 --> 01:16:20,519
Speaker 1: in that game. The Watson thing is no lower than

1452
01:16:21,240 --> 01:16:24,920
Speaker 1: maybe two. The Walter play is big two. Johnny. Now

1453
01:16:24,920 --> 01:16:29,640
Speaker 1: the degree it's those three, it's those three. It is

1454
01:16:29,720 --> 01:16:32,360
Speaker 1: without a doubt it I'm willing to entertain anything else.

1455
01:16:32,400 --> 01:16:34,640
Speaker 1: But let me tell you it's gonna be hard to

1456
01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:36,960
Speaker 1: bump any one of those three. I mean when you

1457
01:16:37,080 --> 01:16:41,479
Speaker 1: just when you think about the degree of difficulty, the

1458
01:16:41,479 --> 01:16:46,320
Speaker 1: degree of difficulty is probably the Shawn's was probably that's

1459
01:16:46,400 --> 01:16:48,960
Speaker 1: number one. That's number one. JJ is definitely number two

1460
01:16:48,960 --> 01:16:50,680
Speaker 1: because he had to jump up snatch it. I mean

1461
01:16:51,040 --> 01:16:52,920
Speaker 1: he jumps going up to bat it and then he

1462
01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:56,720
Speaker 1: catches It's it's point blanks because we've seen what and

1463
01:16:56,800 --> 01:16:58,360
Speaker 1: I think last year he had one or two of

1464
01:16:58,360 --> 01:17:00,519
Speaker 1: those where oh it went right to his hands. It

1465
01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:02,400
Speaker 1: could have been picked off. But it's hard. I mean,

1466
01:17:02,479 --> 01:17:05,200
Speaker 1: it's hard to pick off of football for anybody at

1467
01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:07,639
Speaker 1: that range. You know, you got a big defensive line,

1468
01:17:07,600 --> 01:17:10,760
Speaker 1: I mean who has great hands, albeit, but still that

1469
01:17:10,800 --> 01:17:13,720
Speaker 1: thing's humming. You know, to actually come down with it,

1470
01:17:13,840 --> 01:17:15,920
Speaker 1: and then you know, once once you come down with it,

1471
01:17:15,960 --> 01:17:18,559
Speaker 1: you're you're basically free to run to the end zone.

1472
01:17:18,600 --> 01:17:21,800
Speaker 1: That was close range, as opposed to say the one

1473
01:17:21,840 --> 01:17:26,559
Speaker 1: against Buffalo in twenty fourteen, where it was close range

1474
01:17:26,600 --> 01:17:29,160
Speaker 1: again as far as the pick, but then he had

1475
01:17:29,160 --> 01:17:31,160
Speaker 1: to run a long way to get to the end

1476
01:17:31,240 --> 01:17:33,640
Speaker 1: zone and it was lost. I think Kareem was his

1477
01:17:33,880 --> 01:17:37,080
Speaker 1: escort into the end zone that day. But those are

1478
01:17:37,200 --> 01:17:39,320
Speaker 1: those are the three though. But I mean, you think

1479
01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:43,519
Speaker 1: about the degree of difficulty of taking that car crash

1480
01:17:43,560 --> 01:17:46,360
Speaker 1: of bang bang and just spinning off it. The best

1481
01:17:46,360 --> 01:17:50,160
Speaker 1: part is him explaining it. He's on the sideline explaining

1482
01:17:50,200 --> 01:17:51,800
Speaker 1: like what he did and how he got out of it.

1483
01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:55,920
Speaker 1: It's like there's no explanation for no, no, no, It's

1484
01:17:55,960 --> 01:18:00,000
Speaker 1: like you just weren't going down. You weren't going down.

1485
01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:03,800
Speaker 1: You can't explain that when you're that gifted. It's like

1486
01:18:03,920 --> 01:18:06,080
Speaker 1: Van Go trying to say, you know, starry Night, I

1487
01:18:06,120 --> 01:18:08,720
Speaker 1: just kind of painted some stuff. You know, I just

1488
01:18:08,760 --> 01:18:11,600
Speaker 1: get the brush and I just start painting. You know, Picasso,

1489
01:18:11,680 --> 01:18:15,320
Speaker 1: I just start, you know, brushing and painting. How's the

1490
01:18:15,439 --> 01:18:18,599
Speaker 1: artist supposed to explain the art? You know, it just happens.

1491
01:18:19,000 --> 01:18:22,680
Speaker 1: And that is that's a combination of art, athleticism, all

1492
01:18:22,720 --> 01:18:25,559
Speaker 1: of it, because the presence of mind to not only

1493
01:18:25,720 --> 01:18:30,040
Speaker 1: escape and it's just like, oh, as far as degree

1494
01:18:30,040 --> 01:18:33,240
Speaker 1: of difficulty, O'Brien thinks your Eye Kick is a much

1495
01:18:33,280 --> 01:18:35,680
Speaker 1: more difficult play play because he does get kicked in

1496
01:18:35,720 --> 01:18:38,320
Speaker 1: the eye. We see that he has to actually check

1497
01:18:38,920 --> 01:18:42,559
Speaker 1: if his eyeball is still in the socket before he

1498
01:18:42,600 --> 01:18:44,479
Speaker 1: throws the touchdown pass. And when you look at it

1499
01:18:44,479 --> 01:18:47,519
Speaker 1: in slow motion, you kind of see it, but in

1500
01:18:47,640 --> 01:18:51,640
Speaker 1: fast motion, you think. And that's how you know they

1501
01:18:51,680 --> 01:18:54,080
Speaker 1: talk about the game slowing down for you. Watson is

1502
01:18:54,080 --> 01:18:59,080
Speaker 1: operating in complete slow motion. You know, I'm checking to

1503
01:18:59,120 --> 01:19:02,439
Speaker 1: see if my eye is still attached to throw a

1504
01:19:02,479 --> 01:19:05,880
Speaker 1: touchdowna What's amazing about that play mark is the fact

1505
01:19:05,920 --> 01:19:10,400
Speaker 1: that as soon as arden Key got to Deshaun and

1506
01:19:10,479 --> 01:19:16,920
Speaker 1: started kind of spinning him around, Fells new to keep moving, yeah,

1507
01:19:17,000 --> 01:19:19,680
Speaker 1: and to hear Whitehead, who was covering Fells, Fellas ran

1508
01:19:19,720 --> 01:19:24,080
Speaker 1: a little stick nod route and Whitehead like caught it perfectly.

1509
01:19:24,400 --> 01:19:26,920
Speaker 1: He played it as perfectly as you could. But then

1510
01:19:26,960 --> 01:19:31,080
Speaker 1: when Whiteheads saw he wrap up Deshaan, he you can

1511
01:19:31,120 --> 01:19:34,880
Speaker 1: literally see him stop and Fells just continues for just

1512
01:19:34,920 --> 01:19:37,400
Speaker 1: a little bit, and then that's when he hits him

1513
01:19:37,400 --> 01:19:39,800
Speaker 1: with the ball. And it's like that kind of thing.

1514
01:19:39,920 --> 01:19:42,719
Speaker 1: Playing with a guy like DeShawn, it's so frustrating playing

1515
01:19:42,720 --> 01:19:45,080
Speaker 1: against him because you're timing and everything, you're rhythm of

1516
01:19:45,120 --> 01:19:47,759
Speaker 1: playing out the quarterbacks. He should go down. I shouldn't

1517
01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:50,760
Speaker 1: have to keep playing. But our guys know, hey, just

1518
01:19:50,880 --> 01:19:52,840
Speaker 1: keep playing because he's gonna get you the ball. He's

1519
01:19:52,880 --> 01:19:55,719
Speaker 1: gonna somehow stand up. You know, we talked Jordan Nakins

1520
01:19:55,720 --> 01:19:57,720
Speaker 1: about that. The offensive line too. How many times we

1521
01:19:57,760 --> 01:20:00,280
Speaker 1: talked to the offensive line about this, Hey, you gonna

1522
01:20:00,320 --> 01:20:04,240
Speaker 1: have to stay on these blocks and stay a little

1523
01:20:04,280 --> 01:20:06,280
Speaker 1: bit longer than you're used to. Titis talked about that.

1524
01:20:06,320 --> 01:20:08,160
Speaker 1: He's like, hey, getting used to having to sean back

1525
01:20:08,200 --> 01:20:10,600
Speaker 1: there as opposed to what I'm used to. You know,

1526
01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:12,360
Speaker 1: the timing is different. You know, I gotta stay on

1527
01:20:12,360 --> 01:20:14,479
Speaker 1: this a little bit longer. But if I do, I'm

1528
01:20:14,479 --> 01:20:16,439
Speaker 1: gonna give him an opportunity to get rid of football

1529
01:20:16,439 --> 01:20:18,760
Speaker 1: and make a play. So how about this? You did

1530
01:20:18,800 --> 01:20:22,439
Speaker 1: the tellustrator with David Johnson. Yea Arizona Kyler Murray made

1531
01:20:22,439 --> 01:20:24,720
Speaker 1: a nice play on you know, he just did you

1532
01:20:24,920 --> 01:20:29,120
Speaker 1: you paint the picture? Well, how there's nothing there? But

1533
01:20:29,160 --> 01:20:32,600
Speaker 1: then Johnson leaks out and it's really it could have

1534
01:20:32,680 --> 01:20:35,280
Speaker 1: almost been nothing anyway, because it's a lateral pass to

1535
01:20:35,439 --> 01:20:38,280
Speaker 1: David Johnson and he could have been leveled by I

1536
01:20:38,320 --> 01:20:40,519
Speaker 1: think it was a dB Jackson, Yeah, trying to make

1537
01:20:40,520 --> 01:20:43,040
Speaker 1: a hitch. But David gets by him and then and

1538
01:20:43,080 --> 01:20:45,599
Speaker 1: then I thought he's gonna go outside on that play,

1539
01:20:45,800 --> 01:20:48,320
Speaker 1: but he goes inside, just smashes through two guys on

1540
01:20:48,400 --> 01:20:50,080
Speaker 1: his way to the end zone. But here's my point.

1541
01:20:50,320 --> 01:20:54,519
Speaker 1: Remember the Carlos Hide play in London last year where

1542
01:20:54,520 --> 01:20:57,240
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, he just throws it backward lateral

1543
01:20:57,280 --> 01:20:59,720
Speaker 1: to him and Lows gets a first down. And there

1544
01:20:59,760 --> 01:21:03,000
Speaker 1: are their instances like that Lamar Miller against Seattle and things.

1545
01:21:03,080 --> 01:21:05,439
Speaker 1: Everybody's got to have their head on a swivel. While

1546
01:21:05,479 --> 01:21:09,360
Speaker 1: when you're playing with Watson, David Johnson and Deshaun Watson

1547
01:21:09,720 --> 01:21:12,360
Speaker 1: in this offense, that's another thing to get excited about.

1548
01:21:12,439 --> 01:21:16,080
Speaker 1: As far as the improbability David knows. I mean, David

1549
01:21:16,200 --> 01:21:18,080
Speaker 1: played with Murray last year and made a couple of

1550
01:21:18,120 --> 01:21:21,040
Speaker 1: plays like that, and obviously he's got a good history.

1551
01:21:21,240 --> 01:21:24,120
Speaker 1: But a healthy David Johnson, not just the scripted stuff,

1552
01:21:24,120 --> 01:21:28,160
Speaker 1: but the unscripted element with David Johnson could get very

1553
01:21:28,240 --> 01:21:31,280
Speaker 1: exciting here. So that's something I'm looking forward to seeing.

1554
01:21:31,320 --> 01:21:33,080
Speaker 1: I mean, look, you'd love to all the scripted stuff

1555
01:21:33,080 --> 01:21:36,000
Speaker 1: to work out perfectly, but this is a coach's dream

1556
01:21:36,040 --> 01:21:40,320
Speaker 1: to have a player where all right, uh jokes, I

1557
01:21:40,520 --> 01:21:42,920
Speaker 1: kick is exactly the way he drew it up. You know,

1558
01:21:43,360 --> 01:21:46,920
Speaker 1: this is this is my play. I mean, think about

1559
01:21:46,920 --> 01:21:49,960
Speaker 1: it at that particular point, and I hope I don't

1560
01:21:49,960 --> 01:21:51,920
Speaker 1: want him. This is not a knock. But if you

1561
01:21:51,960 --> 01:21:58,880
Speaker 1: remember that game, uh Larmy had gone out and Titus

1562
01:21:59,000 --> 01:22:01,400
Speaker 1: was banged up in the Kansas City game two weeks

1563
01:22:01,400 --> 01:22:06,720
Speaker 1: prior our tackles at that time, we're Dan Skipper and

1564
01:22:06,840 --> 01:22:09,120
Speaker 1: Chris Clark for I kick, for I kick, We're Dan

1565
01:22:09,200 --> 01:22:12,960
Speaker 1: Skipper and Chris Clark Skipper Dan Skipper. So when you

1566
01:22:13,040 --> 01:22:16,040
Speaker 1: call plays a play caller and you realize, okay, you

1567
01:22:16,080 --> 01:22:18,360
Speaker 1: don't have not only do you not have your front

1568
01:22:18,400 --> 01:22:21,080
Speaker 1: your your top line guys out there at the two

1569
01:22:21,160 --> 01:22:23,160
Speaker 1: key spots where you need your front line guys, you

1570
01:22:23,200 --> 01:22:26,680
Speaker 1: don't have, and he still is able to make a

1571
01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:31,280
Speaker 1: play like that. It I mean, I forgot about that.

1572
01:22:31,400 --> 01:22:33,160
Speaker 1: Then when I went and didn't tell Straighter on I kick,

1573
01:22:33,200 --> 01:22:37,360
Speaker 1: I was like, hold up, that's not Laramie. Hey wait

1574
01:22:37,400 --> 01:22:38,960
Speaker 1: a second. I ran it back when I went, that's

1575
01:22:38,960 --> 01:22:41,400
Speaker 1: Skipper and Clark and he still makes that. But I

1576
01:22:41,439 --> 01:22:45,160
Speaker 1: have to do a list of plays that have names

1577
01:22:45,200 --> 01:22:50,559
Speaker 1: like hop spins, I kick, rosen Coopter, that's a negative one,

1578
01:22:50,640 --> 01:22:54,040
Speaker 1: but we have plays that have names and uh, and

1579
01:22:54,280 --> 01:22:56,559
Speaker 1: it's fun. Now, one more point I wanted to make

1580
01:22:56,600 --> 01:22:59,640
Speaker 1: about Watson running the football before we get to the

1581
01:22:59,680 --> 01:23:03,000
Speaker 1: brand Done interview. That'll probably be the next segment. But uh,

1582
01:23:03,760 --> 01:23:05,840
Speaker 1: you know you're saying, well, maybe you know now he's

1583
01:23:05,840 --> 01:23:07,519
Speaker 1: gonna do it less, and you'd like to see him

1584
01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:09,639
Speaker 1: do it less as the years going. And I think

1585
01:23:09,680 --> 01:23:12,120
Speaker 1: that that could happen, and that should happen as well.

1586
01:23:12,840 --> 01:23:15,439
Speaker 1: But I just think it's in him, you know. And

1587
01:23:15,680 --> 01:23:18,640
Speaker 1: it's it's a hard thing when you have the physical

1588
01:23:18,720 --> 01:23:22,040
Speaker 1: ability to take off with it. And like I said

1589
01:23:22,120 --> 01:23:25,960
Speaker 1: many times this offseason, he thinks he can fly, go airborne.

1590
01:23:26,040 --> 01:23:28,120
Speaker 1: I'm going for the pylon. I'm going I'm going up

1591
01:23:28,160 --> 01:23:29,720
Speaker 1: in the air now and I'm gonna get this ball

1592
01:23:29,760 --> 01:23:33,000
Speaker 1: across the pylon Michael Vick style or however, I'm gonna

1593
01:23:33,000 --> 01:23:35,720
Speaker 1: do it. And you have the ability to do it,

1594
01:23:35,720 --> 01:23:37,479
Speaker 1: it's hard not to do it. I know I can

1595
01:23:37,600 --> 01:23:40,840
Speaker 1: do it. Why wouldn't I? You know, And I think

1596
01:23:40,880 --> 01:23:43,200
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a difficult thing for him. You know,

1597
01:23:43,280 --> 01:23:45,840
Speaker 1: obviously you want to and he's always got the eyes

1598
01:23:45,880 --> 01:23:47,800
Speaker 1: down field. It's not like he's looking to run first,

1599
01:23:47,840 --> 01:23:50,080
Speaker 1: but hey, I don't see anything right now, and I'm

1600
01:23:50,080 --> 01:23:53,519
Speaker 1: gonna make a play anyway. I trust him, I mean

1601
01:23:53,560 --> 01:23:55,720
Speaker 1: I trust him. I trust the fact that he has

1602
01:23:56,280 --> 01:23:58,679
Speaker 1: he's grown so much that he's not going to take

1603
01:23:58,920 --> 01:24:02,679
Speaker 1: a risk that is not calculated in some sense, because

1604
01:24:02,720 --> 01:24:05,280
Speaker 1: we've seen him. We've seen him slide down, we've seen

1605
01:24:05,360 --> 01:24:07,879
Speaker 1: him get five to seven yards. Even in Seattle seventeen

1606
01:24:07,920 --> 01:24:10,640
Speaker 1: when we played up there, he took he would they

1607
01:24:10,640 --> 01:24:13,559
Speaker 1: would run the zone read and Clark and whomever else

1608
01:24:13,560 --> 01:24:15,439
Speaker 1: would bite. Michael Bennet would bideen the dive and he

1609
01:24:15,520 --> 01:24:18,160
Speaker 1: just go steal five seven yards and he just get

1610
01:24:18,200 --> 01:24:20,960
Speaker 1: on down at that point and take what he could.

1611
01:24:21,200 --> 01:24:24,320
Speaker 1: I think he picks and chooses spots when it feels like, hey,

1612
01:24:24,400 --> 01:24:26,559
Speaker 1: I gotta I gotta have this one. I think if

1613
01:24:27,120 --> 01:24:31,200
Speaker 1: if we were up twenty one seven in the fourth

1614
01:24:31,280 --> 01:24:33,519
Speaker 1: quarter or at the third, late in the third quarter,

1615
01:24:33,760 --> 01:24:36,320
Speaker 1: when he pulls that ball, the first touchdown he scored

1616
01:24:36,360 --> 01:24:39,280
Speaker 1: on where he carried, guys, yeah, we're up twenty one seven.

1617
01:24:40,560 --> 01:24:42,880
Speaker 1: I think the first sign of a buffalo bill coming

1618
01:24:42,920 --> 01:24:46,000
Speaker 1: to him, he slides down right, he gets down good point.

1619
01:24:46,080 --> 01:24:50,080
Speaker 1: I think he plays the situation as you would want,

1620
01:24:50,240 --> 01:24:54,440
Speaker 1: rights as everybody would want. He understands what the situation

1621
01:24:54,680 --> 01:24:57,280
Speaker 1: is and he knew, he said afterwards, He's like, look,

1622
01:24:57,320 --> 01:24:59,880
Speaker 1: somebody's gonna make a play. And how much with the

1623
01:25:00,120 --> 01:25:03,439
Speaker 1: JJ sack and then that drive and then him carrying

1624
01:25:03,479 --> 01:25:06,439
Speaker 1: guys into the end zone, how much did that charge

1625
01:25:06,439 --> 01:25:07,960
Speaker 1: that place up? And it really did what it was

1626
01:25:07,960 --> 01:25:10,000
Speaker 1: supposed to do. And that's what he thought it was.

1627
01:25:10,040 --> 01:25:12,240
Speaker 1: The WOP play was a spark. That was a spark.

1628
01:25:12,280 --> 01:25:14,320
Speaker 1: Not only did you score, but everyone saw what you did.

1629
01:25:14,400 --> 01:25:16,920
Speaker 1: Two score That fired everybody up, all right. Next up,

1630
01:25:16,960 --> 01:25:19,800
Speaker 1: Brandon don I interview him. He kind of interviews me.

1755
01:32:37,080 --> 01:32:39,240
Speaker 1: knows what this year is going to be. But let's

1756
01:32:39,280 --> 01:32:42,240
Speaker 1: hear from this. I caught up with Brandon Dunn. Brandon,

1762
01:32:58,880 --> 01:33:02,080

1763
01:33:02,680 --> 01:33:06,479
Speaker 1: you know, let my talents show in front of twenty

1764
01:33:06,479 --> 01:33:09,240

Speaker 1: gets this, They get the luxury of having me at

1766
01:33:11,280 --> 01:33:13,920
Speaker 1: the DJ. So now everybody's a little bit spread out

1767

Speaker 1: right now. But anybody on the Blue team knows they

1768
01:33:16,640 --> 01:33:18,360
Speaker 1: getting the good day of music when they come in

1769
01:33:18,360 --> 01:33:20,719
Speaker 1: the locker room. All right, So the battle Red team

1770
01:33:20,720 --> 01:33:24,080
Speaker 1: and the Liberty White team, they might be franchises. You know,

1771
01:33:24,160 --> 01:33:27,400
Speaker 1: you're the key guy here, you're the man. Yeah. Man,

1772
01:33:27,439 --> 01:33:29,640
Speaker 1: I've been getting I've been getting, you know, calls and

1773
01:33:29,680 --> 01:33:32,160
Speaker 1: remarks about the other locker room. It's not good, you know,

1774
01:33:32,200 --> 01:33:34,519
Speaker 1: it's not as they that's what they miss, you know.

1775
01:33:34,520 --> 01:33:35,920
Speaker 1: I told him nothing that we can that we can

1776
01:33:35,960 --> 01:33:37,960
Speaker 1: do about it. Man, it's the nothing that we can

1777
01:33:38,040 --> 01:33:39,920
Speaker 1: control right now. So you know you're gonna have to

1778
01:33:40,120 --> 01:33:42,120
Speaker 1: They're gonna make do without me for a little bit.

1779
01:33:42,600 --> 01:33:44,800
Speaker 1: We just got to get through it somehow. But how

1780
01:33:44,840 --> 01:33:46,960
Speaker 1: has this bid for you? I mean, you've been through

1781
01:33:47,000 --> 01:33:50,040
Speaker 1: a lot in your career so far. How are you

1782
01:33:50,240 --> 01:33:53,920
Speaker 1: dealing with coronavirus and the distancing you and all the

1783
01:33:53,960 --> 01:33:58,080
Speaker 1: guys really? Well, first all of us, you know, uh,

1784
01:33:58,280 --> 01:34:01,320
Speaker 1: some guys more than most I fly, so they family first.

1785
01:34:01,479 --> 01:34:04,000
Speaker 1: You know, guys made a decision on playing this year,

1786
01:34:04,120 --> 01:34:08,000
Speaker 1: so you know, everybody's bought in, but just everybody personally

1787
01:34:08,040 --> 01:34:11,200
Speaker 1: in me, We're just trying to go through the protocols,

1788
01:34:11,280 --> 01:34:13,600
Speaker 1: do what they tell us to do, you know, understand,

1789
01:34:13,880 --> 01:34:17,640
Speaker 1: you know, testing, getting more educated about the virus, you know,

1790
01:34:17,720 --> 01:34:21,160
Speaker 1: quarantining immediate family. So I think everybody got to do

1791
01:34:21,240 --> 01:34:23,320
Speaker 1: more than what they've what they've done in the past

1792
01:34:23,560 --> 01:34:27,759
Speaker 1: to keep the season alive. So Anthony Weaver d line coach,

1793
01:34:27,840 --> 01:34:31,479
Speaker 1: but now defensive coordinator, is it different at all now

1794
01:34:31,479 --> 01:34:34,120
Speaker 1: that he's the big boss of the entire defense and

1795
01:34:34,320 --> 01:34:39,599
Speaker 1: your position coach? How's that changed? If at all nothing's changed? Man? Uh,

1796
01:34:40,000 --> 01:34:42,720
Speaker 1: you know, coach. Weaver is a great coach man, uh, well,

1797
01:34:42,800 --> 01:34:46,040
Speaker 1: deserving for the coordinator job. And we just you know,

1798
01:34:46,040 --> 01:34:48,599
Speaker 1: we're just gonna keep getting better, you know. Right now,

1799
01:34:49,120 --> 01:34:52,559
Speaker 1: you know, uh, we're working two days unpaid, so it's

1800
01:34:52,560 --> 01:34:55,280
Speaker 1: still early for us, you know, with an unpresident year,

1801
01:34:55,400 --> 01:34:58,519
Speaker 1: you know, no OTAs or nothing like that. So we uh,

1802
01:34:58,920 --> 01:35:00,920
Speaker 1: we're just taking him back to the fundamentals of things

1803
01:35:01,000 --> 01:35:03,000
Speaker 1: right now. And we've just helping out. Man. He's having

1804
01:35:03,000 --> 01:35:05,800
Speaker 1: everybody out. Man. He's a good dude and a great

1805
01:35:05,840 --> 01:35:08,719
Speaker 1: coach at beer around and a former player helps helps

1806
01:35:08,760 --> 01:35:12,000
Speaker 1: you feel comfortable on all levels. So he talks to

1807
01:35:12,080 --> 01:35:14,759
Speaker 1: us and he can get through us faster than I'm guessing.

1808
01:35:15,160 --> 01:35:17,280
Speaker 1: You know a coach who doesn't he hasn't played in

1809
01:35:17,320 --> 01:35:19,200
Speaker 1: those positions and certain stuff. He can give you a

1810
01:35:19,200 --> 01:35:22,360
Speaker 1: lot of good tips. It seems like you guys have

1811
01:35:22,479 --> 01:35:25,080
Speaker 1: a lot of diversity on the d line, a lot

1812
01:35:25,080 --> 01:35:27,840
Speaker 1: of depth, guys with different skill sets. Can you speak

1813
01:35:27,840 --> 01:35:29,719
Speaker 1: to that a little bit. I mean, you and Angelo

1814
01:35:29,760 --> 01:35:31,960
Speaker 1: and JJ you've been around here, but a man of

1815
01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:34,360
Speaker 1: who year two you got Ross Blacklock a rookie. What

1816
01:35:34,439 --> 01:35:36,759
Speaker 1: about that room and all the different things you guys

1817
01:35:36,800 --> 01:35:40,000
Speaker 1: bring Man, the room is good man. The room is

1818
01:35:40,000 --> 01:35:42,040
Speaker 1: obviously you know, a ram by the veterans. But the

1819
01:35:42,120 --> 01:35:45,080
Speaker 1: young guys, they show up and they listen, they get better.

1820
01:35:45,160 --> 01:35:46,960
Speaker 1: The only day we ever asked him to do, you know,

1821
01:35:47,240 --> 01:35:51,559
Speaker 1: obviously you know the the Ross kid is, uh, you're

1822
01:35:51,560 --> 01:35:54,000
Speaker 1: gonna need him to help help us win. So I

1823
01:35:54,120 --> 01:35:57,400
Speaker 1: hope that you know he can take not even hit

1824
01:35:57,400 --> 01:35:59,880
Speaker 1: a rookie wall, you know, because this year and this

1825
01:36:00,200 --> 01:36:02,320
Speaker 1: I'm present, we don't need him to hit that wall.

1826
01:36:02,360 --> 01:36:05,080
Speaker 1: But he's got veterans to pick him up and have

1827
01:36:05,280 --> 01:36:08,280
Speaker 1: him out along the way because we're gonna he's gonna

1828
01:36:08,320 --> 01:36:11,759
Speaker 1: need somehow helps to get through this long season. Something

1829
01:36:11,800 --> 01:36:14,960
Speaker 1: I've been asking all the guys about watching other sports

1830
01:36:14,960 --> 01:36:17,599
Speaker 1: like the NBA, Major League Baseball, and the way they

1831
01:36:17,600 --> 01:36:19,240
Speaker 1: don't have fans And I know we want to have

1832
01:36:19,240 --> 01:36:21,000
Speaker 1: fans of the first home game here, but you hope

1833
01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:24,639
Speaker 1: to have fans filing it eventually. What has it been

1834
01:36:24,680 --> 01:36:26,400
Speaker 1: like watching other sports And how do you think it's

1835
01:36:26,400 --> 01:36:28,400
Speaker 1: gonna play out for you, especially being at home when

1836
01:36:28,400 --> 01:36:31,400
Speaker 1: you're kind of used to that that really loud crowd

1837
01:36:31,479 --> 01:36:34,840
Speaker 1: helping you out on dep Yeah, I mean, it's it's

1838
01:36:34,880 --> 01:36:37,120
Speaker 1: gonna be some it's probably take some getting used to.

1839
01:36:37,920 --> 01:36:40,479
Speaker 1: But the other luxury is is, man, we can communicate

1840
01:36:40,520 --> 01:36:42,439
Speaker 1: and hear each other better. You know a lot of

1841
01:36:42,439 --> 01:36:45,639
Speaker 1: times on defense, you know, it's a it's it's loud, loud.

1842
01:36:45,640 --> 01:36:48,200
Speaker 1: We've got great fans, it's loudest rocking. But this is

1843
01:36:48,200 --> 01:36:50,040
Speaker 1: gonna be a little different dynamic. So we got to

1844
01:36:50,120 --> 01:36:52,800
Speaker 1: use that to our advantage. All right, Well, Brandon, thanks

1845

1861
01:37:38,920 --> 01:37:40,960
Speaker 1: and he told me all about heraved about it and

1862
01:37:41,000 --> 01:37:43,840
Speaker 1: it was a cool thing to see the Miami a

1863
01:37:43,920 --> 01:37:46,800
Speaker 1: hammet in the background. I just wanted to ask that question, man,

1868
01:37:58,160 --> 01:37:59,800
Speaker 1: I know it, man, it was I telling you that

1869
01:37:59,920 --> 01:38:01,680
Speaker 1: was the loader. He always talked about how it was

1870
01:38:01,680 --> 01:38:03,360
Speaker 1: probably one of the best rosses he's ever been a

1871
01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:06,920
Speaker 1: part of and ever ever seen. Crazy Crazy. Well, it's

1872
01:38:06,960 --> 01:38:09,599
Speaker 1: great to talk with the old catch up soon you too.

1873
01:38:10,680 --> 01:38:14,400
Speaker 1: Brandon done DJ Dunning and there's no more any confusion

1874
01:38:14,439 --> 01:38:17,840
Speaker 1: with DJ Reader because he's the only DJ now because

1875
01:38:17,880 --> 01:38:20,519
Speaker 1: he's an actual DJ in the clubhouse. Now, if you're

1876
01:38:20,560 --> 01:38:23,840
Speaker 1: wondering why exactly Brandon brought that up, Mark was doing

1877
01:38:23,840 --> 01:38:25,240
Speaker 1: a zoom with him. I actually was sitting in the

1878
01:38:25,280 --> 01:38:27,439
Speaker 1: back corner of the room. Yeah, because Charles Minner was

1879
01:38:27,439 --> 01:38:31,080
Speaker 1: doing a zoom with deep in our digital studio. So

1880
01:38:31,120 --> 01:38:33,639
Speaker 1: I walked out there and I do my work sometimes

1881
01:38:33,680 --> 01:38:35,519
Speaker 1: in the media work room, and so Brandon just starts

1882
01:38:35,560 --> 01:38:37,040
Speaker 1: asking you about I was like, why is he asking

1883
01:38:37,120 --> 01:38:39,479
Speaker 1: about the hurricanes? And then I remember you're set up

1884
01:38:39,520 --> 01:38:42,360
Speaker 1: behind you there's a Miami hurricane helmet up on the

1885
01:38:42,439 --> 01:38:45,080
Speaker 1: ledge and he happened to see that and then asked

1886
01:38:45,120 --> 01:38:48,000
Speaker 1: you about the connection with Miami, which I've always said,

1887
01:38:48,040 --> 01:38:49,479
Speaker 1: you know, I feel about that. I could I could

1888
01:38:49,520 --> 01:38:51,400
Speaker 1: listen to you to tell Miami stories all day long.

1889
01:38:52,520 --> 01:38:54,880
Speaker 1: Then I know you were there there only three years,

1890
01:38:54,920 --> 01:38:58,240
Speaker 1: but man, the three years you were there, and he's right,

1891
01:39:00,640 --> 01:39:05,280
Speaker 1: that group was pretty That group was pretty loaded there front.

1892
01:39:05,360 --> 01:39:08,640
Speaker 1: The d line was ridiculous. It was crazy. It was

1893
01:39:08,840 --> 01:39:11,439
Speaker 1: it was crazy, for sure. That was funny. Up the

1894
01:39:11,479 --> 01:39:14,720
Speaker 1: helmet I have up there in my zoom calls and

1895
01:39:14,760 --> 01:39:17,920

1906
01:39:46,520 --> 01:39:50,360
Speaker 1: offensive line. Um, this is a position group that is

1907
01:39:50,800 --> 01:39:53,719

1908
01:39:53,760 --> 01:39:56,719

2000
01:45:56,840 --> 01:46:01,840
Speaker 1: eyes have seen. It's just glorious to be at practice

2001
01:46:02,200 --> 01:46:07,240
Speaker 1: on a seventy whatever degree day. This is ridiculous, Johnny.

2002
01:46:07,360 --> 01:46:10,439
Speaker 1: I feel like we have just completely beamed ourselves to

2003
01:46:10,479 --> 01:46:13,000

2004
01:46:13,000 --> 01:46:16,200
Speaker 1: in the end zone stands here a little bit overlooking

2005
01:46:16,200 --> 01:46:18,720
Speaker 1: and seeing all these mountains. I mean, I do see

2006
01:46:18,760 --> 01:46:21,280
Speaker 1: the skyline down down, so I mean that's, you know,

2007
01:46:22,120 --> 01:46:25,120
Speaker 1: some visual, but it's just different. I mean, to be

2008
01:46:25,240 --> 01:46:28,559
Speaker 1: here on August seventeenth to feel this, and I feel

2009
01:46:28,560 --> 01:46:30,519
Speaker 1: bad because how many times we had fans out here

2010
01:46:30,560 --> 01:46:33,960
Speaker 1: and fans have just been dying. And he stands from then,

2011
01:46:34,040 --> 01:46:36,479
Speaker 1: and we never had a day like this, never ever.

2012
01:46:36,720 --> 01:46:41,080
Speaker 1: This is unprecedented Yeah, it's weird. In fact, if it

2013
01:46:41,120 --> 01:46:43,200
Speaker 1: was like this all the time, no matter what piece

2014
01:46:43,200 --> 01:46:46,719
Speaker 1: of property you own in Houston, multiply that by five

2015
01:46:46,840 --> 01:46:52,280
Speaker 1: times its value, if this were the weather all summer long, exact. Okay,

2016
01:46:52,560 --> 01:46:55,200
Speaker 1: amen to that. So they're doing some special team stuff

2017
01:46:55,280 --> 01:46:56,880
Speaker 1: right in front of us, all right, some things that

2018
01:46:57,000 --> 01:46:58,920
Speaker 1: jump out at me, Johnny, as I'm looking at the

2019
01:46:58,920 --> 01:47:02,599
Speaker 1: guys in full path. Yeah, well you were talking about

2020
01:47:02,680 --> 01:47:06,000
Speaker 1: Corn Higden, and my goodness, he's like I don't know

2021
01:47:06,040 --> 01:47:08,680
Speaker 1: what to call him, mini Fridge or something. He is.

2022
01:47:09,880 --> 01:47:12,599
Speaker 1: He's low to the ground. You just get the feeling

2023
01:47:12,640 --> 01:47:15,559
Speaker 1: that he could be a big problem to tackle, you know,

2024
01:47:15,920 --> 01:47:17,760
Speaker 1: will you be able to find him? And then when

2025
01:47:17,760 --> 01:47:20,160
Speaker 1: you do, he might break it, you know. So that's

2026
01:47:20,400 --> 01:47:22,599
Speaker 1: one thing. Now, the numbers, me being the play by

2027
01:47:22,600 --> 01:47:25,519
Speaker 1: play guy, the numbers jump out at you. Some of them,

2028
01:47:25,560 --> 01:47:27,880
Speaker 1: Like seeing a twenty four out there, which is Higden.

2029
01:47:28,280 --> 01:47:31,360
Speaker 1: Thank goodness that twenty four formerly J Joe is now

2030
01:47:31,400 --> 01:47:35,040
Speaker 1: an offense number. That's that's a big help to me. Right.

2031
01:47:35,520 --> 01:47:38,120
Speaker 1: Twenty eight is weird, Michael Thomas, because I'm still seeing

2032
01:47:38,120 --> 01:47:42,200
Speaker 1: Alfred Blue out there. Okay when I see twenty eight. Yeah,

2033
01:47:42,640 --> 01:47:45,519
Speaker 1: here's another one. Will Fuller without the dreads in full

2034
01:47:45,640 --> 01:47:49,280
Speaker 1: uniform is really different. You know when I when I

2035
01:47:49,320 --> 01:47:51,759
Speaker 1: glanced over there, I thought, that doesn't look like Will

2036
01:47:51,800 --> 01:47:55,519
Speaker 1: from a distance, because you're so used to identify, you know,

2037
01:47:55,600 --> 01:47:59,040
Speaker 1: players with dreads. You identify them by the dreads, you know.

2038
01:47:59,080 --> 01:48:02,240
Speaker 1: I mean, that's just one of the key key indicators

2039
01:48:02,320 --> 01:48:05,400
Speaker 1: right there. So that's something that jumps out to me.

2040
01:48:06,040 --> 01:48:10,120
Speaker 1: You mentioned Ross Blacklock, the rookie defensive lineman wearing number ninety.

2041
01:48:10,360 --> 01:48:14,240
Speaker 1: He just looks so sprite, you know, he looks so

2042
01:48:14,439 --> 01:48:17,519
Speaker 1: light on his feet for a near three hundred pounder. Yes,

2043
01:48:17,640 --> 01:48:19,479
Speaker 1: I mean that's the thing about him. And then when

2044
01:48:19,479 --> 01:48:22,840
Speaker 1: you get even closer and you see how he's cut, Yeah,

2045
01:48:22,960 --> 01:48:27,719
Speaker 1: you're you know, just how he's molded. You realize, dah,

2046
01:48:27,960 --> 01:48:30,479
Speaker 1: come and you watch him Mark, it's the same thing

2047
01:48:30,520 --> 01:48:33,800
Speaker 1: because he's agile, he's I said this too. I was

2048
01:48:33,840 --> 01:48:36,639
Speaker 1: talking to Clint and Sean this weekend. They were doing

2049
01:48:36,640 --> 01:48:38,760
Speaker 1: a show from two to six, which you gotta check

2050
01:48:38,760 --> 01:48:40,599
Speaker 1: out the weekend shows on Sports Trade at six ten

2051
01:48:40,640 --> 01:48:43,160
Speaker 1: as guys did a heck of a job, and they

2052
01:48:43,160 --> 01:48:44,880
Speaker 1: were asking me about Blacklock, and I said, he almost

2053
01:48:44,880 --> 01:48:48,880
Speaker 1: plays like a defensive line linebacker, because he'll do one

2054
01:48:48,920 --> 01:48:51,200
Speaker 1: or two things. He'll either use his quickness and power

2055
01:48:51,240 --> 01:48:53,120
Speaker 1: to penetrate and run up field and chase guys down

2056
01:48:53,160 --> 01:48:55,639
Speaker 1: from behind, or he'll play off a block and then

2057
01:48:55,840 --> 01:48:58,360
Speaker 1: be like a linebacker and use his quickness and agility

2058
01:48:58,640 --> 01:49:01,360
Speaker 1: to like scrape down the line and go find the ball.

2059
01:49:01,600 --> 01:49:04,040
Speaker 1: And it's kind of it's it's different. It's kind of

2060
01:49:04,040 --> 01:49:09,400
Speaker 1: the way the way stylistically that Aaron Donald plays. That's

2061
01:49:09,439 --> 01:49:11,160
Speaker 1: kind of the way he plays. Now I'm not seeing

2062
01:49:11,200 --> 01:49:13,719
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald, but that's kind of the way that Donald

2063
01:49:13,720 --> 01:49:16,879
Speaker 1: plays because Aaron Donald has that sort of foot quickness,

2064
01:49:16,960 --> 01:49:20,280
Speaker 1: that agility to kind of work through chaos and kind

2065
01:49:20,280 --> 01:49:22,559
Speaker 1: of straight down the line basically and go make a

2066
01:49:22,600 --> 01:49:25,600
Speaker 1: tackle on the ball. So he's got that. And I

2067
01:49:25,920 --> 01:49:27,679
Speaker 1: saw that at TCU a number of times. He would

2068
01:49:27,680 --> 01:49:28,680
Speaker 1: go make a play on the other side of the

2069
01:49:28,760 --> 01:49:31,160
Speaker 1: field and I'm like, heck, could you do that? And

2070
01:49:31,160 --> 01:49:33,760
Speaker 1: I'd run it back and realize he basically just kind

2071
01:49:33,760 --> 01:49:36,760
Speaker 1: of avoided He's using his quickness and his feet kind

2072
01:49:36,760 --> 01:49:38,439
Speaker 1: of avoided all the trash in front of him to

2073
01:49:38,439 --> 01:49:40,320
Speaker 1: go make a tackle down a line of scrimmage. So

2074
01:49:40,800 --> 01:49:44,920
Speaker 1: he's a pretty impressive dude. There's no doubt quarterbacks had

2075
01:49:44,920 --> 01:49:50,240
Speaker 1: read jerseys. Of course, the hands off jerseys. Offensive linemen

2076
01:49:50,400 --> 01:49:57,840
Speaker 1: working out and so Gerald Hawkins tackle from LSU. Three

2077
01:49:57,920 --> 01:50:02,599
Speaker 1: hundred five pounds, six six. He's an imposing presence. Charlie

2078
01:50:02,640 --> 01:50:06,120
Speaker 1: Heck who's six eight out of North Carolina, the rookie

2079
01:50:06,120 --> 01:50:10,280
Speaker 1: they drafted him. He's nearly three hundred and sixty four.

2080
01:50:10,360 --> 01:50:12,679
Speaker 1: He's another presence. I mean, these guys, I mean, look,

2081
01:50:12,720 --> 01:50:15,599
Speaker 1: tackles are big, I get it, but they just looked

2082
01:50:15,600 --> 01:50:17,640
Speaker 1: a part out there. They look like they belong at

2083
01:50:17,720 --> 01:50:19,960
Speaker 1: least in the early going here. But let's let's see

2084
01:50:20,000 --> 01:50:21,880
Speaker 1: what happens when they get into these individuals they are

2085
01:50:21,880 --> 01:50:24,200
Speaker 1: about to undertake today. You know, Mark, I think about

2086
01:50:24,240 --> 01:50:26,400
Speaker 1: that a lot. I don't know why I got to think.

2087
01:50:26,400 --> 01:50:29,160
Speaker 1: In about week two or twenty fifteen, we went to

2088
01:50:29,160 --> 01:50:31,680
Speaker 1: play Carolina. I don't know why I was thinking about this,

2089
01:50:31,720 --> 01:50:35,120
Speaker 1: but I remember Jeff Adams started for US at tackle

2090
01:50:35,160 --> 01:50:37,200
Speaker 1: and he ended up getting hurt in that game, unfortunately.

2091
01:50:37,240 --> 01:50:39,840
Speaker 1: But you know, in no offense to Jeff, but Jeff,

2092
01:50:39,920 --> 01:50:41,720
Speaker 1: you know Jeff, you know it was kind of a

2093
01:50:41,760 --> 01:50:44,719
Speaker 1: gritty technician, you know, smart guy in the IVY League.

2094
01:50:45,240 --> 01:50:47,720
Speaker 1: You think about that kind of player and think about

2095
01:50:47,800 --> 01:50:49,599
Speaker 1: Jeff and then you think about what now is over

2096
01:50:49,640 --> 01:50:52,719
Speaker 1: there in an offensive line, and it's night and day different.

2097
01:50:52,960 --> 01:50:54,960
Speaker 1: I mean, you think on an offensive line. Obviously, we've

2098
01:50:54,960 --> 01:50:57,599
Speaker 1: talked a lot mark about the five guys being together

2099
01:50:58,439 --> 01:51:04,519
Speaker 1: upfront with Lara, Me and Max Nick Zach and with

2100
01:51:04,800 --> 01:51:06,519
Speaker 1: Tyus Howard as we get a few drops of rain

2101
01:51:06,560 --> 01:51:09,519
Speaker 1: down here by the way, those guys have obviously all

2102
01:51:09,560 --> 01:51:14,479
Speaker 1: started together, but everybody behind them has started as well.

2103
01:51:14,760 --> 01:51:17,799
Speaker 1: Greg Mann started a full season sixteen s. Snail Clemente

2104
01:51:17,880 --> 01:51:21,880
Speaker 1: has started a number of years at different points. Rod

2105
01:51:21,960 --> 01:51:25,120
Speaker 1: Johnson started for this team a couple of times last year.

2106
01:51:25,280 --> 01:51:28,479
Speaker 1: Jerald Hawkins has started before. Brent Quality, number seventy six,

2107
01:51:28,600 --> 01:51:31,599
Speaker 1: who always forget who that is. He's got starting experience

2108
01:51:31,640 --> 01:51:35,719
Speaker 1: out a ton, but starting experiencing the NFL. Every guy

2109
01:51:35,800 --> 01:51:40,200
Speaker 1: behind the guy has played and started before for this

2110
01:51:40,240 --> 01:51:42,320
Speaker 1: offensive line. That's not something I think they've ever had

2111
01:51:42,360 --> 01:51:45,240
Speaker 1: on the offensive line all the way through the top nine,

2112
01:51:45,280 --> 01:51:49,519
Speaker 1: top ten guys. All right, So Jordan Thomas and Darren Fells,

2113
01:51:49,680 --> 01:51:52,120
Speaker 1: I'm looking at them full uniform standing right in front

2114
01:51:52,120 --> 01:51:55,080
Speaker 1: of me and Thomas when you see Thomas in the hallway.

2115
01:51:55,320 --> 01:51:59,000
Speaker 1: He is massive right. Fells though is six seven. He's

2116
01:51:59,000 --> 01:52:01,920
Speaker 1: a couple of inches taller than him. But you were

2117
01:52:02,000 --> 01:52:04,519
Speaker 1: mentioning to me when you saw Thomas for the first

2118
01:52:04,520 --> 01:52:07,439
Speaker 1: time this camp. He thought, my goodness, he just looks

2119
01:52:07,680 --> 01:52:09,760
Speaker 1: more chiseled. Yeah, for lack of a better way of

2120
01:52:09,800 --> 01:52:13,519
Speaker 1: putting it, this year, and I can definitely verify that.

2121
01:52:13,600 --> 01:52:16,439
Speaker 1: And I think that you know his blocking game. I'm

2122
01:52:16,479 --> 01:52:19,120
Speaker 1: eager to see how he's improved in that category, Johnny,

2123
01:52:19,200 --> 01:52:21,280
Speaker 1: because that's a key factor for him, and he's got

2124
01:52:21,360 --> 01:52:23,320
Speaker 1: the body to do it. I mean, you look, you

2125
01:52:23,360 --> 01:52:25,439
Speaker 1: look at the lower body of Thomas and he should

2126
01:52:25,439 --> 01:52:27,439
Speaker 1: be able to move people out of the way. And

2127
01:52:27,479 --> 01:52:29,360
Speaker 1: if he could do that along with the receiving skills,

2128
01:52:29,360 --> 01:52:32,680
Speaker 1: you're looking at great possibilities there at that position. And

2129
01:52:32,880 --> 01:52:36,439
Speaker 1: nobody for the most part, comes from the college game

2130
01:52:36,640 --> 01:52:40,479
Speaker 1: as a tight end able, ready and able to block

2131
01:52:40,840 --> 01:52:43,040
Speaker 1: like you see a guy like Gronk or a guy

2132
01:52:43,040 --> 01:52:44,960
Speaker 1: like George Kiddle or anything. It takes a while. And

2133
01:52:45,040 --> 01:52:47,759
Speaker 1: considering that JT played a lot of receiver his final

2134
01:52:47,800 --> 01:52:49,760
Speaker 1: year in Mississippi State, he's sort of lost a lot

2135
01:52:49,760 --> 01:52:52,000
Speaker 1: of those reps that you would have, so it takes

2136
01:52:52,000 --> 01:52:54,400
Speaker 1: a little while to get used to, Hey, man, I

2137
01:52:54,439 --> 01:52:57,559
Speaker 1: gotta block this six four, two hundred and seventy pound

2138
01:52:57,640 --> 01:53:02,080
Speaker 1: defensive end like Nick Bosa or Joe Bosa or you

2139
01:53:02,120 --> 01:53:04,880
Speaker 1: know justin Houston. Gonna block these guys. I didn't have

2140
01:53:04,920 --> 01:53:06,679
Speaker 1: to block these guys in the SEC, So it takes

2141
01:53:06,680 --> 01:53:08,800
Speaker 1: a little while for that part of the game. I

2142
01:53:08,840 --> 01:53:11,960
Speaker 1: think for you know, in line tight ends especially, they

2143
01:53:11,960 --> 01:53:14,520
Speaker 1: don't have a lot of experience to get get that experience.

2144
01:53:14,680 --> 01:53:16,640
Speaker 1: But hopefully he's getting it. But he I think he

2145
01:53:16,720 --> 01:53:19,080
Speaker 1: looks really good right now. Another thing that's super cool

2146
01:53:19,200 --> 01:53:21,439
Speaker 1: is the video board here. I tweeted it out at

2147
01:53:21,479 --> 01:53:23,479
Speaker 1: Texans Voice. Go take a look at the video board.

2148
01:53:23,479 --> 01:53:26,960
Speaker 1: They run replays, They run real time stuff, then replay

2149
