But 36 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 5: I love the way our guys approached it right. It 37 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 5: doesn't matter right, who's up, who's down, everybody. I told 38 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 5: them on Wednesday, I want everybody to approach this game 39 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 5: as you're starting, whether you're on practice squad, whether you've 40 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 5: been inactive for a few weeks, like it doesn't matter, 41 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 5: Like prepare yourself as you're gonna go out and you're starting, 42 00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 5: and you'll be ready to go if. 43 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 6: Your number is called. 44 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 3: I know you'd love to get the ground game really 45 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 3: cranked up. What's the challenge in facing their front and 46 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 3: doing that? 47 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, the challenge they're tough front, physical upfront, right, big 48 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 5: guys up front. They do a really nice job in 49 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 5: the run game. So we just have to stay after it, 50 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 5: or we have to stay after We have to do 51 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 5: a really good job on our combination box, you know, 52 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 5: on the interior right to really stay after it. Right, 53 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 5: if we get a four yard run, that's okay, Like 54 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 5: just keep plugging, keep plugging, keep plugging. And you know, 55 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 5: with that being said, you know, the play action pass 56 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 5: will help open up some of the run games, so 57 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,399 Speaker 5: we have to be able to execute that as well. 58 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, they've been good pressuring quarterbacks lately. They're surging in 59 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 3: that department for some reason. 60 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:39,959 Speaker 5: Yeah, they do a really good job when it comes 61 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 5: to the stunting games up front with their defensive line. Right, 62 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,639 Speaker 5: they do a really good job of mixing it up, 63 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 5: putting the pressure right in the middle of the pocket, 64 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 5: right where the quarterback can't truly step up. 65 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 6: You see, that's their emphasis. 66 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 5: They don't want to allow a quarterback to step up, right, 67 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 5: So that's how they get the pressure on the quarterback, 68 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 5: make it tough on them, and we have to and 69 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 5: they play really tight man coverage. Right it comes to the down, 70 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 5: so our receivers have to be precise and they're out 71 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 5: running and we have to find a way to get open. 72 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 3: You have some tape on Will Levis, no question about that, 73 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 3: but he hasn't played that much. What about the element 74 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 3: of unpredictability with him. Rookies you sometimes don't know what 75 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 3: you're gonna get. 76 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, you don't know what you're gonna get. 77 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 5: One thing I say about Will is you see you 78 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 5: see his toughness on tape, right, You see the competitor. 79 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 5: You see the toughness. He throws the D ball really well. 80 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 5: They've thrown the most D balls in the league this year, 81 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 5: and as Levis stepped in, he's thrown it a lot 82 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 5: right to Hopkins down the field. So we have to 83 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 5: be aware of that, try to eliminate those explosives. But 84 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 5: when it comes to you know, everything else is kind 85 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 5: of standard. With their offense and how they run, how 86 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 5: they operate, all of that, it's pretty much the same. 87 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 5: We just got to try to frustrate levels as much 88 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 5: as possible. And make it a drop back pass game 89 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 5: and try to frustrate him as much as we can. 90 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 3: We talked about Derek Henry earlier in the week, but 91 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 3: what about DeAndre Hopkins because he's coming off a big 92 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 3: game and he's not unpredictable, but he does have a 93 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 3: way of getting open. 94 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, he's talented, man, he's savvy. You talk about a 95 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 5: veteran who's he does a really good job. You know, 96 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 5: he's lining up to the ex receiver the single receiver side, 97 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 5: and he's just he goes up, he finds a way 98 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 5: to you know, Chuck defenders off at times, but when 99 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 5: he goes up for the ball, he's probably one of 100 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 5: the most sure handed guys you know in the league. 101 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 5: And it's competitive at the catch point, which makes it tough. 102 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 5: He's a tall, target, athletic guy, still has to speed 103 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 5: to run past you. So it's just all around one 104 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 5: of the one of the top receivers in the league. 105 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 3: What about the psychological factor of playing a team in 106 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 3: the division. I know it's your first matchup with Tennessee 107 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 3: this year, but you've seen all the tape they play 108 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 3: everybody you playing that kind of thing. 109 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's it's one of those games where you and 110 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 5: you can't get pumped up for this one. I don't 111 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 5: know what's wrong with you right off. It's it's when 112 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 5: you look forward to right seeing the team in your division, right, 113 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 5: knowing what's on the line. Like it's one of those 114 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 5: games to where you know it's you don't need a 115 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 5: speed to a big speech or anything. Guys know you 116 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 5: know what this game means. They know going against the Titans, 117 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 5: and you know that DIVI and rivalry, it's always been 118 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 5: a big time matchup. 119 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,359 Speaker 6: Guys understand that. And now once all of that is done, once. 120 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 5: That ball is now, is gonna come down to, man, 121 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 5: are you executing your job? Are you playing as fast 122 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 5: and as physical as you can possibly play? And then 123 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 5: let's see what happens. 124 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 4: Coach, thanks a lot for joining us, Good luck. 125 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 6: Thanks Mark, great stuff. 126 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: They're from Demico Ryans. 127 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 2: I've gotten to I've gotten I'm not perfect at it, 128 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 2: but I've gotten to where I could speak a little 129 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 2: bit of fluent Tomko Ryans.

Yeah, but when Liverpool played 159 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 2: man City is a draw, which is a shame. 160 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 8: Live Liverpool top of the table right now though, just the. 161 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 4: Guy Blue are coming table standings in English is coming. 162 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: Don't worry you, hear him.

But what 167 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 4: needs to be done? 168 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean a you know, sort of the usual suspects. Obviously, 169 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 8: getting hats to the ball, getting people there. It's hard, 170 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 8: you know, one on one tackles. He's a big back. 171 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 8: He's got a great stiff arm, so we have to 172 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 8: learn how to defeat that. And then a lot of 173 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 8: it's trying to just take up air, not give him 174 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 8: that space. Like you know, he's a kind of a 175 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 8: bill momentum guy. If he can glide on his track 176 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 8: and get going, he's obviously harder to bring down. So 177 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 8: if you can get to him early and close space, 178 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 8: get him in the backfield a little bit, just chop 179 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 8: the front up, make him maybe chop his feet a 180 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 8: little bit, like gives your best chance, like he's always 181 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 8: at the top of the league and yards after contact 182 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 8: and those sort of measurements. So it's definitely a challenge, 183 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 8: but you know, sort of the way we play our 184 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 8: techniques in our front or hopefully give us a chance. 185 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 2: Coach Will Levis, what have you seen with him as 186 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 2: it started all year about half the year seemingly, but 187 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 2: from the Falcons game on what we've seen from. 188 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 8: Will Yeah, I know I've probably have been mentioned obviously 189 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 8: sort of the toughness and the aggressiveness and the energy 190 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 8: plays with it. It's palpable on film, and he's got 191 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 8: a big arm. They you know, they're one of the 192 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 8: top teams in league at downfield shots at at air 193 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 8: pass yards and trying to get explosives. 194 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: And he throws a really good deep. 195 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 8: Ball and obviously got some weapons that we know that 196 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 8: can go up and get it. So I would say 197 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 8: those are the two biggest things that jump off tape, 198 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 8: Just the grit and the toughness he plays with, and 199 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 8: then he throws a really nice deep ball, which they 200 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 8: do a lot of too, so he sort of marries 201 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 8: up with the system pretty well. 202 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 3: A lot of talk about injuries on the offensive side 203 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 3: of the ball, you are dealing with your share on 204 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,079 Speaker 3: the defensive side of the ball. You know, Blake Cashman 205 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 3: goes out last week leading tackler coming into the game 206 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 3: for the organization, But you've had other guys who have 207 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,719 Speaker 3: shined as well at the linebacking spot. And it's the NFL, right, 208 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 3: you have to rise to the occasion. How hard is 209 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 3: it to regroup and retool things in different weeks as 210 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 3: you put together your lineup you're gonna. 211 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 8: Face Yeah, yeah, I mean it's always I always say 212 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 8: it's it's never matt or of if you deal with 213 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 8: injuries is when you know, and so you have to 214 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 8: have a preparation. And I know I've been asked a 215 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 8: lot through the course of the season just rotating that group, 216 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 8: and that's part of the point, you know what I 217 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,680 Speaker 8: mean that all those guys have gotten some reps at 218 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 8: different spots, and we try to put them in different 219 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 8: positions so that when this stuff comes up, there's some 220 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 8: cross training and guys can plug in it at different areas, 221 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 8: you know. I mean it's you know, it's a position 222 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 8: that you only go into a game with four or five, 223 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 8: six depending kind of week to week, you know, so 224 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 8: all those guys have to be able to learn multiple positions. 225 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 8: So we've been training that way all year. So you know, 226 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 8: it's our job, whoever's available to us to sort of 227 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 8: try to put them in the right spots to help us. 228 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 8: So it's those guys have done a really good job 229 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 8: of just stepping up when it's time to step up. 230 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 2: Coach, what are you most proud about this defense about? 231 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 2: And what do you feel like this still has to 232 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 2: get better for this defense to take another step up? 233 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean I would say it for us, it's 234 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 8: always just like from a proud standpoint, I mean, it 235 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 8: just starts with how they play, the effort and the 236 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 8: to and talk all those injuries. I mean, there's a 237 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 8: lot of guys that are playing through minor injuries, are 238 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 8: banged up stuff, and they're just gritting it out and tough. 239 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 8: I mean, it's it's a really you know, tough, hard 240 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 8: playing group, which is like a calling card for what 241 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 8: we do and you know, get compliments on like the 242 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 8: playing style and how it jumps off tape to you know, 243 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 8: I feel like week tweek we're always talking about cleaning 244 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 8: up the mistakes or the errors, the miscommunications. 245 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:24,719 Speaker 10: You know what I mean. 246 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 8: And last week, you know, it was a good example 247 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 8: that like we weren't on our p's and ques of 248 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 8: what we needed to do, and uh, you know, led 249 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 8: to some leaky yards and some stuff that we would 250 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 8: like back. So I think again, I think I said 251 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 8: this last week in my in my press conference, like 252 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 8: we're all striving for perfection and I know that's maybe 253 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 8: not possible, but we want to get as close to 254 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 8: perfection from a execution standpoint, like a call alignment assignment. 255 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 8: I know Meek's been talking about like let's let textans 256 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 8: get out of their own way and let's see what 257 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 8: that looks like. So I would say that's where we 258 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:58,559 Speaker 8: still have growth of just putting togethers. Every game we've had, 259 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 8: we've had flashes of just excellence and playmaking, and but 260 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 8: we haven't really strung it together for a full sixty. 261 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 8: So that's always the goal where we're trying to hit. 262 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 4: Coach, thanks a lot for joining us, good luck, I 263 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 4: appreciate it. 264 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 10: Guys. 265 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 2: Yeap Dartmouth PC Ivy League title. Smoked Us, smoked Brown 266 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 2: that last weekend. But my man Bill Laser, if he's 267 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 2: got anything to do with it, his son is going 268 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,959 Speaker 2: to take us to Great Heights very very soon. Bill Laser, 269 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 2: Senior offensive assistant, His son Nolan going to Brown, and 270 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 2: I love it. Six ' five, maybe sixty six, he's 271 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 2: tall guy. Can an arm gonna be quarterback at Brown. 272 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 2: Can't wait for that because then Dartmuth's gonna eat our dust. 273 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,439 Speaker 2: But right now we're eating Dartmouth's dust. 274 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: And I hate that. All right. 275 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,079 Speaker 2: University of Texas is going to the College Football Playoff. 276 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 2: Andrew Beck is a proud Texas alum. He sat down 277 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 2: with Drew Doherty. You give him a flavor of this 278 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 2: one against Tennessee this weekend. 279 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 11: Fullback Andrew Beck is the guest taking on the Tennessee 280 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 11: Titans in Nashville. Andrew as an offense, how do you 281 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 11: guys bounce from what we saw last. 282 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 10: Week in New York. 283 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 12: It's kind of getting back to the things we know 284 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 12: we do well. You know, execute on first and second down, 285 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 12: not letting the elements affect us on third down. You know, 286 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 12: obviously that's the spot where we were trying to you know, 287 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 12: space it out and throw it a little bit and 288 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 12: the rank and have an effect. And I think it's 289 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 12: gonna be runing again this week. So knowing that going 290 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 12: into it and controlling what we can control, I think 291 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 12: that's all it is. I mean, the good news is 292 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:21,320 Speaker 12: we don't have to reinvent the wheel to get back 293 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 12: to what we've been doing. Just go back to exactly 294 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,079 Speaker 12: that what's workforce in the past. And you know, we've 295 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 12: got the playmakers. Even with injuries and CJ probably not 296 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 12: being available. You know, we don't really know anything on 297 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 12: that yet, but as far as whoever's available, we have 298 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 12: a really good X man of mentality and knowing that 299 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 12: we have the playmakers in our room to do. 300 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 13: It no doubt. And you bring up CJ probably not 301 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 13: gonna play. 302 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 11: But with case Keenum and Davis Mills, you guys have 303 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 11: a familiarity with both those guys, right. 304 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 12: Yeah, absolutely, you know, Fortunately with us, you know you 305 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 12: can't go wrong with those two. And I think that's 306 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,079 Speaker 12: where our coaches have the most confidence in our quarterbacks. 307 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 10: Obviously the players. 308 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 12: Do you know either of those guys can walk in 309 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 12: and command a HUD to lift CJ is not available. 310 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 12: But at the end of the day, that's a that's 311 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 12: a coach's decision. And the good news for the players 312 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 12: is we feel confident with either of them in the 313 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 12: huddle and they both do a really, really, really good job. 314 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 13: Yeah. 315 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 11: You know, earlier in the season we saw those two 316 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 11: games where you guys get one hundred yards on the 317 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 11: ground from Singletary, saw some flashes last week against New York. 318 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:12,439 Speaker 13: How do you keep that going on on a more 319 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 13: consistent basis, you. 320 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 10: Think, I mean, that's the thing, is just finding the consistency. 321 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 12: I think you know, upfront, it starts with thus handling 322 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,559 Speaker 12: movement games on the line and you know, playing on 323 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:21,839 Speaker 12: their side of the ball. I think that's been the 324 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 12: key to our offense ever since coach Slowe had got 325 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 12: here and installed it. The very first thing he said, 326 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 12: it's always if we're going to be successful, we're in and 327 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 12: play on the defensive side of the line of scrimmage. 328 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 12: And if we get back to that, Fortunately for us, 329 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 12: it doesn't matter who lines up on the other side 330 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 12: of the ball. We can we can handle business as 331 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 12: long as we get back to the fundamentals what we do, 332 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:38,320 Speaker 12: which is run off the ball, playing on their line 333 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 12: of scrimmage and being decisive and in every aspect, and 334 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 12: we can do that, and I think that, you know, 335 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 12: the more guys know that and understand that that's it's 336 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 12: reassuring to them, and you know, you play better with 337 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 12: a little bit of confidence beyond you. So just getting 338 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 12: back to the confidence that we need, think it'll be 339 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 12: good for us. 340 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 13: Facing a team in Tennessee. 341 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 11: Monday night football held a pretty potent Miami Dolphins offense 342 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 11: in check. What stands out to you the most about 343 00:13:58,920 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 11: their front seven? 344 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 12: One diversity did they play with? They have a couple 345 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 12: of different out of base and nickel. They have a 346 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 12: couple of different things that they'll throw out there. So 347 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:07,199 Speaker 12: it's you know, knowing who's on the field and where 348 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 12: they're lining up. They got a couple of really good players, 349 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 12: you know, they're the backers, fly around, their edge guys 350 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 12: are physical and same with their interior guys against some 351 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 12: big guys that can play in the middle. So again, 352 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 12: it just gets back to doing what we do best 353 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 12: and you know, controlling what we can control and getting 354 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 12: after them. 355 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 11: How much do you guys look forward to after you 356 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 11: have a game like that you did last week to 357 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 11: just getting back out on the field. You don't want 358 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 11: to heal, you want to get through anything physically, but 359 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 11: on the mental side, how quickly do you guys want 360 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 11: to go again and play right? 361 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 12: That's the thing is, you know, we just we just 362 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 12: got to get past it. And I think you know, 363 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 12: we've had a couple of good days of practice, seeing 364 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 12: the practice reps and knowing that, like, hey, guys, it 365 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 12: wasn't the end of the world. We can still accomplish 366 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 12: everything that we want to accomplish. And I think that 367 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 12: was a big thing for guys to hear, is that 368 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 12: you know, we're not done this season yet. We got 369 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 12: to keep rolling and I think everybody's excited for the challenge. 370 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 11: All right, last thing Christmas is on the way Santa 371 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 11: Claus can bring you anything other than a victory against 372 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 11: the Titans and the playoffs after that, what do you 373 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 11: want them to bring in? 374 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,040 Speaker 10: Oh man, playoffs after that was a good one. I 375 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 10: wanted to bring me. 376 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 12: Hmm, that's a good one. I'm an outdoorsy guy, so 377 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 12: like a deer leaves or. 378 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 10: Something like that. 379 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 12: Land just a bunch of land. If anybody hears that, 380 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 12: and it's willing to do. 381 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 10: That's what we'll go for. 382 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 11: Andrew Beck needs some deer to kill, so give him 383 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 11: some land, hook him up, and let's have some fun. Hey, Andrew, 384 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 11: always fun talking with you. Best to look against the 385 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 11: Titans and the rest of the way.

Thank you. 388 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 2: Andrew Beck will be by a little bit later for 389 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 2: a little Drew's Dozen, which you definitely don't want to miss. 390 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 2: I got a feeling that Andrew becks Drews doesn't. It's 391 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 2: gonna be as good as we've had. 392 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: All year long. 393 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 2: What are the keys to getting a winning gainst Nashville? 394 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 2: Is Andrew Beck part of that? Yes, and well you 395 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 2: asked for the keys, and you're gonna get him with 396 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 2: a guest appearance from my man Mark Vanderber that's next 397 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 2: on Texans All Access. Look back to this Friday edition 398 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 2: of Texans All Access, a tgi F edition of Texans 399 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 2: All Access. I'm your host, John Aris, football analyst, sideline 400 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 2: reporter for you. He used to Texans and it's time 401 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 2: for my keys to the game. But I have brought 402 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 2: along a guest host. Now, let's see if you can 403 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 2: figure out who this guest host was and is. He 404 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 2: once lived in Happy Valley, Pennsylvania, which is called State College, Pennsylvania. 405 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 2: He was once the voice of the Central Michigan Chippewas, 406 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 2: and he also claims to be the best darts player 407 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 2: in the building. It is none other than Mark Vanderbermark. 408 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: How you doing? 409 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 3: Jeff schmidtz our its are is probably the best. But 410 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 3: I've beaten him before and I will do it again. 411 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 3: That makes you the best. 412 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 4: I will unseat him eventually. That makes me the best. 413 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 13: Okay. 414 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 1: So here's what I'm gonna do, Mark, what I usually 415 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: do on Friday nights. You already know. 416 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 2: I get my keys going, and I got the music 417 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 2: in the background. 418 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: I get hype. 419 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 2: So I'm gonna start the music, all right, and there 420 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 2: it is, and we're gonna talk about he's to the game. 421 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 2: We're starting the offensive side, So we're gonna talk about 422 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 2: the things that offensively we need to see to be 423 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 2: able to get a win over the Titans with this 424 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 2: Titans defense. So I'll go first to give you a 425 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 2: second to think about this. Don't anticipate seeing Jeffrey Simmons 426 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 2: that said, the Texans offensive line must control the down players. 427 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 2: I said last week on extra points, they've got to 428 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 2: be able to block Daniko Audrey tier Tart. Just because 429 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 2: Simmons won't be in this game, it doesn't matter to me. 430 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,880 Speaker 2: Those two guys Autrey are and key on the outside 431 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 2: Harold Landry in particular, this Texans offensive front must control 432 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 2: those Titans down guys, no questions asked, Well. 433 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 3: I'm with you, and they got to find a way 434 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 3: to get some running lanes. They got to get something. Look, 435 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna sit here and say one hundred and 436 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 3: twenty five yards, are you kidding? I'd love one hundred 437 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 3: and twenty five yards in this game. I don't care 438 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 3: who's playing quarterback. That would be a best friend of 439 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 3: the quarterback. But how about this, Johnny, if you have 440 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,199 Speaker 3: a first half even of forty five yards or so, 441 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 3: and have some success in the second half, let's have 442 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 3: another forty five fifty sixty added on to that. Let's 443 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,159 Speaker 3: not have one half where you have this success and 444 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,399 Speaker 3: then it kind of shuts down at the break. Right now, 445 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,160 Speaker 3: I know game dictates that you're behind a lot or whatever. 446 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 4: Let's not have that happen. 447 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 3: So I just want to see some consistency where it's 448 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 3: good enough. How about this good enough ground game. I'm 449 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 3: not asking for a bonanza, love to see it, but 450 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 3: a good enough ground game to me is a huge 451 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 3: key for the Houston Texans because, let's face it, you 452 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 3: need it for the quarterbacking situation. And even if CJ 453 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 3: one percent slinging it, we want to see the ground 454 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 3: game going. 455 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 4: It's a big part of this system. Absolutely. 456 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 2: Okay, my next key getting the tight ends involved, or 457 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 2: I'll put its way getting everybody's not a wide receiver 458 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 2: involved in the passing game. 459 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: Help the wide receivers. 460 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 2: Dalton Schultz having him back his massive Evan Jordan keeping 461 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 2: him involved, and they got Brevin involved last week with 462 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 2: slam release. You know, action going one way, slam release, 463 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,399 Speaker 2: he releases the other way, he's wide open. Just things 464 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 2: like that that can get the tight ends in running 465 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 2: backs open and available. It doesn't have to be a 466 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 2: slip screen in the running back all the time. It 467 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 2: can be a throat in the flat to running back. 468 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 2: Just speaking up four yards on first down. We were 469 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,399 Speaker 2: in the hole so many times, behind the sticks so 470 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,639 Speaker 2: many times last week. We've got to be able to 471 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 2: get the ball out to those guys and let them 472 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 2: do some damage in space. 473 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, that might be my opening play. 474 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 3: A little boot and just a little quickie pass to 475 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,640 Speaker 3: the tight end for eight yards. It gets a little Yeah, 476 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,479 Speaker 3: gets your first down. Yeah, you know, reload from there, Johnny. 477 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 3: When the Texans were really doing well in this type 478 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 3: of system, Remember you're allowed to bootleg and hit big 479 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 3: plays to the backs and the tight ends. Right Owen 480 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 3: Daniels against the Jets in twenty twelve Monday Night Football, 481 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 3: huge play touchdown Arian Foster against the Titans in twenty eleven. Bootleg, 482 00:19:57,680 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 3: throw it to Arian, he runs the length of the feet, 483 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 3: that kind of thing. 484 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 4: And I'm not saying. 485 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 3: That's gotta happen, but it would be great to get 486 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,359 Speaker 3: some chunk plays out of the boot to the backs 487 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 3: and tight ends. 488 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 4: I endorsed this message of yours last one. 489 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 2: Now, I kind of poopooed the receivers a second ago. 490 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 2: I am not poopooing the wide receivers here last week 491 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,719 Speaker 2: wide receivers not named Nico Collins. I guess you throw 492 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,679 Speaker 2: Nico in there. But Miko went out early. He had 493 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,920 Speaker 2: one catcher, first down, he went out. The next play 494 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 2: was a screen to Woods. 495 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:31,160 Speaker 9: That was it. 496 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:36,439 Speaker 2: They had four catches for nineteen yards. Now, I'm not 497 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,399 Speaker 2: expecting anyone to have a Nico Collins tanked out Andre 498 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 2: Johnson type of game. Not expecting that. But four four 499 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 2: nineteen is not gonna cut it to me. Yes, the 500 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:50,119 Speaker 2: offensive line is in the spotlight. To me, the wide 501 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:54,439 Speaker 2: receivers have got to play well in this game. And 502 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 2: they've had games. No Browns had games. Robert Woods was 503 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 2: a third down demon earlier in the year. Forget a 504 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 2: little banged up and then had to miss some time. 505 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 2: Robert Woods, no Brown, I would say in particular. 506 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 1: But I know the Mets. 507 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 2: You got a lot of run last week, and Xavier 508 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:15,640 Speaker 2: Hutchinson whoever they are, whoever those wide receivers are, they've 509 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:17,199 Speaker 2: got to have more than four for nineteen. 510 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I need. 511 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 3: I need an X factor guy, right, I need maybe Noah, 512 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 3: I need how about Steve Simms if he's up right 513 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 3: doing something big here, X doing something big here? Mechi 514 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 3: coming out party would be unbelievably great. But you're right, 515 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 3: you need a extra I like Sims coming up if 516 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 3: that's the case, because he has that dimension of speed 517 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 3: he can add to the table. 518 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,360 Speaker 4: Remember he had that receiver screen. You know you need 519 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:42,200 Speaker 4: a couple of those. 520 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 3: You don't need somebody to necessarily go five for one 521 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 3: hundred and twenty and a touchdown. 522 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 4: How about group effort. 523 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,639 Speaker 3: But everybody's making plays out there, because this is everybody's 524 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 3: got a band together. Circle the wagons, burn the boats. 525 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 3: This is that game, Johnny, this is the one here 526 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 3: it is because you get this one. Hopefully you get 527 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,919 Speaker 3: certain people back next week. That would be great against 528 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 3: the Browns. You don't get this one. You're really up 529 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 3: against it with three to go, so let's see. 530 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, gotta have it all right, flip it over to 531 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:15,639 Speaker 2: the defense. Obviously, this is a Titan's crew wants to 532 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 2: run the football. They've run it pretty well by middle 533 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 2: of the pack running wise, they've run it better. But 534 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,360 Speaker 2: I think once Levis has been inserted, their passing game 535 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 2: has been a little bit better. Defensively. First one, not 536 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 2: anticipating Will Anderson Junior playing. In fact, I'm not anticipating 537 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 2: playing for a couple of weeks, to be honest, just 538 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,480 Speaker 2: my hutch. You just never know what you're dealing with. 539 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 2: The high ankle sprain. Apparently, high ankle sprain's and Jacksonville 540 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 2: are like you know in Ingrown to, I guess you 541 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 2: could play with it high ankle sprain legitimately here in 542 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 2: Houston and we'll see. But without Will Anderson Junior, I'm 543 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 2: wondering where's the pressure coming from now? John Garnard has 544 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,400 Speaker 2: done a way of a job, a way of a job. 545 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:55,640 Speaker 2: But the Jets are going back and watching. They spent 546 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 2: a lot of efforts trying to slow down both Will 547 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:03,639 Speaker 2: and on the outside with tight ends, with backs, things 548 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 2: like that. Now they can put those efforts all on Grenard. 549 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 2: So Mark, where does the pressure on Will Levis come from? 550 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 3: It comes from Barnett, it comes from Jerry Hughes. You know, 551 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,400 Speaker 3: you're just gonna have to find a way to get 552 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 3: it there right. And the inside guys too, they're allowed 553 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 3: to get after the quarterback. The Tennessee o line has 554 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,640 Speaker 3: had some issues this year. Now like they feel very 555 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 3: good about themselves. I'm hoping they are fat and happy 556 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 3: in this one. Last week you were facing Zach Wilson. 557 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 3: Zach's been through a lot of stuff. Zach played well 558 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 3: in that game. Demiko Ryans was quick to I'm not 559 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,640 Speaker 3: gonna say he gave him no credit, but he really 560 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 3: put it on his guys not playing well enough, and 561 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 3: that's why they had a great quarterback in game. Obviously, 562 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 3: it all starts with Derek Henry. But get after Will Levis. 563 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 3: And I'm saying, send Petrie every once in a while 564 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:50,400 Speaker 3: if you have to send Jimmy. I don't know how 565 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 3: you draw it up, Johnny, but you got to draw 566 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 3: it up because the guys are gonna be near the 567 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,719 Speaker 3: light of scrimmage anyway, because everybody's got to be invited 568 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 3: to the Derrek Henry party. So let's see if you 569 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,120 Speaker 3: can get after Will Levis in the process. 570 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 9: Yeah. 571 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,199 Speaker 1: Absolutely, How about kind of interest you? And is that, 572 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 1: as Andrew likes to say. 573 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 2: In his first game against Atlanta, Levis through Do you 574 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 2: remember how many touchdowns he threw? 575 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 13: Four? 576 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 2: Four in his last six games? How many touchdowns as 577 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 2: Will Levis thrown? Oh, don't think too hard for four? 578 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 2: How about that four in his first four in the 579 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 2: last six. He doesn't have to throw for a lot 580 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 2: to make it work out. We were going over Davis's 581 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 2: four in one AFC South Road record. Doesn't have a 582 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 2: lot of touchdowns necessarily in that run. But you're just 583 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 2: getting the job done running. You're getting a couple of turnovers. 584 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 2: He needs that, you know, he needs that to help 585 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 2: him win. But look, we all know what it's about. 586 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 9: Here. 587 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 3: It starts with Derrick Henry and you're about to go 588 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 3: over this. Yes, so I'll let you go. 589 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was it. Key number two, Derrick Henry go. 590 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, Derrick Henry the key. 591 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 3: We all know. We've heard it so many times. Romeo Credell. 592 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 3: You have to get him before he starts getting downhill. 593 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,120 Speaker 3: You have to reduce. Did you put it this way 594 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:55,919 Speaker 3: the air between Henry and No? 595 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,679 Speaker 2: Matt Burke did. Oh, Matt Burke did earlier when we 596 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 2: were talking to him. That's what he talked about. The 597 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 2: way that I put it is no runway. A plane 598 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 2: needs that runway to get going. Cut the runway off, right. 599 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 2: The chiefs call it kill the engine. 600 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 10: Yah. 601 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 2: They when they stopped Henry in the playoffs in twenty nineteen, 602 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 2: that's what they called it was killed the engine. 603 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 4: Get to his legs, yeah. 604 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 1: Get to his legs and slow him down. 605 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:16,199 Speaker 13: Low. 606 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 3: Demiko was saying, get them low. So well, everybody knows. 607 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 3: It's like saying, you know, run for three yards. Well, 608 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 3: it sounds simple, but it's difficult. You know, it is 609 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 3: difficult to accomplish. It's difficult to bring Derrick Henry down. 610 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 3: The Dolphins slowed him down a lot, and really it's 611 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 3: mind boggling how Miami lost that football game, but they did. 612 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 3: You just have to find a way to hold him 613 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 3: under one hundred. 614 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 4: I'll take under one hundred now, Alex. 615 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 3: He's had a thousand yards in the last five games 616 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 3: or whatever the stat is against the Houston Texans, and 617 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,159 Speaker 3: even in the win last year, Buck twenty five had 618 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 3: that long run. 619 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 4: The rest of the way you did well. 620 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 3: I know it's different teams, different systems, but let's buckle up, because. 621 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,200 Speaker 4: That's where it starts. I'm sorry. 622 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 3: If you're able to bottle him up, you should be 623 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,919 Speaker 3: able to stop their offense. The question is are they 624 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 3: going to take you, as you would say, down into 625 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 3: their muck and win a game like that because you 626 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,400 Speaker 3: might be doing a good job on defense, but are 627 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,120 Speaker 3: you doing enough on offense? 628 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 6: Yeah? 629 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: That's that's that to me is one hundred and twenty 630 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: six yards. 631 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 2: If dere Henry has one hundred and twenty six yards 632 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 2: on Sunday, I'm worried. If he had one hundred and 633 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 2: twenty six last year. We're throwing a party. I think 634 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:28,160 Speaker 2: he has one hundred and twenty. 635 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:28,479 Speaker 1: Six this year. 636 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 2: I'm worried about that now unless unless a lot of 637 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 2: that comes on one run. If a lot of it 638 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 2: comes like last year, he gets a long run of 639 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 2: last year's forty eight. 640 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 1: He has a big run. 641 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 2: It accounts for half of it, and it's one touchdown, okay, 642 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 2: because then you're doing a pretty good job on the 643 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 2: rest of the carries. But one hundred twenty six yards 644 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 2: on Sunday, I don't know. And when's the last time 645 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 2: we held him under a c note was twenty nineteen 646 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 2: first game, Yeah, when we beat them up there with 647 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 2: Carlos Hide score that game winning touchdown against them, So 648 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,199 Speaker 2: that's that's got to happen. No runway, however, you you know, 649 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:02,160 Speaker 2: whatever theoretical andnalo you want to use, you just can't 650 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 2: get him. You gotta get You got to keep him 651 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 2: from getting ahead of steam. And if you do that 652 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 2: and you're forced him to stop and cut back, you 653 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 2: got a chance. 654 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:11,400 Speaker 1: And then you gotta rap. 655 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,360 Speaker 4: You gotta wrap up, put no doubt, pedal to the metal, and. 656 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 2: No diving, no dirt diving, and can go low, but 657 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 2: make sure you've got something a shoelace, a sock, a kneepad, whatever. 658 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 4: It's gonna be wearing an Oiler uniform. I don't know, 659 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 4: it's weird. 660 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:27,439 Speaker 1: I don't know, just is gonna be strange. 661 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 3: Jollie White Shoes Johnson. You know he played for Atlanta 662 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 3: too tight. Oh yeah, I have this. This is the 663 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 3: stat from my end of numbers. 664 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:33,399 Speaker 4: How about this. 665 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 2: The number is number zero, the number of games that 666 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:39,880 Speaker 2: Billy White Shoes Johnson played in Nashville, Tennessee. 667 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, Anthony Houston for either franchise the way it's constructed now, 668 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 3: And that's why I was thinking you should have honored 669 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 3: him when the Falcons were there. He played six years 670 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 3: for the Falcons, seven for the Oilers. 671 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,959 Speaker 1: Right number seven. Seven seasons for the Oilers. 672 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 2: So he played zero games in Nashville seven seasons in Houston. Yeah, 673 00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 2: so you know you can you could do the math 674 00:27:58,640 --> 00:27:59,919 Speaker 2: and figure that out. This whole thing is kind of 675 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 2: here's another number. Well this is more offense, but still. 676 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 2: How about the fact that Davis Mills in case Keenum 677 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,919 Speaker 2: have a combined ninety stars between them. Yeah, Will Levis 678 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 2: has seven. So starting experience can matter. Got the experience, 679 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,199 Speaker 2: Got the experience. There's no question about that, all right, 680 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:23,439 Speaker 2: last defensive key secondary wise, it's just gotta be sticky 681 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 2: in coverage. 682 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think there's anything any other way 683 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 1: to say it. 684 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 4: Hop, You've got to be stickier in coverage. Who's on Hop? 685 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 2: I think I want Stingley on Hop. I think Stingley's 686 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 2: I mean both. I think both Steven and Staying are 687 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 2: a good matchup because they don't mind getting physical a 688 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:43,959 Speaker 2: little bit. But what sting brings is probably the ability 689 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 2: to adapt to some of the things. Like the other night, 690 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 2: Savian Hard got pulled down by Hop and Hop still 691 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 2: made the catch. I think sting could still make a 692 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 2: play out of that. I think just his size is 693 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 2: probably a little bit better. But I think, as we 694 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 2: saw the Texans do here, whether there was Tim Kelly O'Brien, coleinploys, 695 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 2: Bill O'Brian whatever, they'd like to use Hop in the slot, 696 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 2: because that would give them, that would give the offensive 697 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 2: staff okay, this is zone, this is man. That would 698 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 2: give them some keys, and then you would get Hop 699 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 2: on some pretty, you know, easy little routes where he 700 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 2: could just get a catch, dive forward, it's ten yards. 701 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 1: Whatever they gotta have, they gotta be sticking coverage. 702 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 2: And I think if they're going to bring pressure, like 703 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 2: we talked about with five and six of peatries coming 704 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 2: at Jimmy Ward's blitzing, if the linebackers are blitzing, they've 705 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:30,719 Speaker 2: got to be super sticky in coverage. 706 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 4: Oh that's another one. Linebacker's got to step up. 707 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 1: Oh, they've got to have a week. 708 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 3: Gotta step up, Henry Christian, let's go the young guys, 709 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 3: the Bama boys, let's go. 710 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 2: They've got to step up in a major, major way 711 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 2: this week. 712 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 1: Note about that, No doubt about that. Okay, Nashville, where. 713 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 2: Does the rank on your trips that we take each 714 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 2: and every year? 715 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 4: Oh, it's one of the very best. I like Indy 716 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 4: the best. You know that. 717 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, as a trip, and it's something we've talked about 718 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,040 Speaker 3: many times, but Nashville's the best. Hit he Now the 719 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 3: national has changed a lot. It's funny, I've been in 720 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:03,760 Speaker 3: this so long, Johnny. Yeah, when we used to go 721 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 3: to Broadway downtown in the o's like two thousands. Of course, 722 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 3: you walk around, it was nice, it was kind of 723 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 3: it wasn't quaint, it was still bustling, but it was 724 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 3: you could slip into those music bars, catch a few 725 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 3: songs going to the next one, and I like watching 726 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 3: the live music. 727 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 4: And you know, and I don't spend all night. You know, 728 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 4: I'm back at the hotel by ten. 729 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 3: But now it is a mass of humanity, and the 730 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 3: predators are playing Saturday night too. So every time we 731 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 3: go to Nashville, now, predators are no predators. Because the 732 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 3: arena is right off the edge of Broadway. It's always 733 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 3: packed the bachelorette parties. 734 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 4: No one's complaining about that. I guess. 735 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:43,200 Speaker 3: There's always a huge throng of people in downtown Nashville. 736 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 3: Almost feels like too many, super crowded place. They could 737 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 3: use another Broadway or two to accommodate all the people 738 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 3: that go down there. 739 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 4: But it's it's awesome. I know you like it too. 740 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's one of my favorites, no matter what. 741 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 2: We've got on the dock, and I was it twenty 742 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 2: two where we went to We went to Denver, we 743 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 2: went to New York, to Miami, we. 744 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 1: Had all in Las Vegas. 745 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 2: We had all these fancy trips, even l A in 746 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 2: the in the preseason, which La is gonna be tops 747 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 2: because that's where more of my daughter is but every 748 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 2: year Nashville will be one of the top ones. 749 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it is. It's always fun. 750 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 2: I wish the game were at night, which is weird, 751 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 2: and we never played a night game. 752 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 4: There, never have. 753 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: Well I should said, I know, I've never been to 754 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 1: the night game. 755 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 4: Here, played min night, never played them at night there. 756 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: N w'd be kind of fun. 757 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 4: That would be cool next year probably maybe, Yeah, fun. 758 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 2: See how this this leves c J. Stroud thing goes 759 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 2: and we don't know whether it be CJ Stroud. We 760 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 2: don't think it's gonna be CJ. So we're kind of 761 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 2: planning for Davis Mills and case Keenum one of the 762 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 2: other both. Uh, who knows who's gonna play wildcat quarterback 763 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 2: and that would be one of my five. That would 764 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 2: be my final key mark. I think just overall, pull 765 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:49,719 Speaker 2: out all the stops. It doesn't matter what you have 766 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 2: to do. This game doesn't have to look pretty, this 767 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 2: game doesn't have to be an Instagram model. It's just 768 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 2: got to get you across the finish line. 769 00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 6: That's it. 770 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 4: I wanted to hear what the alternative to Instagram model? 771 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, where I was going to go with that? A 772 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 1: picture of me I don't know. 773 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:04,959 Speaker 2: I don't know where I was gonna go with that, 774 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 2: but yeah, but you get the point. 775 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: You know exactly where I'm going. 776 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 3: Look, it's just it's a I hate to put it 777 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 3: this way, but I don't I shouldn't hate to put 778 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 3: it this way. This feels like one of those O'Brien 779 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 3: games where you just got nothing and you're not nothing. 780 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 3: But you know what I'm saying, you don't have everybody 781 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 3: you'd love to have, and you piece it together and 782 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 3: you go up and you find a way to win 783 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,720 Speaker 3: a division game. Yes, and they and he was able 784 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 3: to do that from time to time. And this is 785 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 3: this is the biggest challenge so far for Tamiko this week. 786 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 3: And you know what, as the games ratchet up in 787 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 3: magnitude later in the season, here we are next week 788 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 3: will be even bigger. So here we are and we'll 789 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 3: see how they respond. But it's a big challenge for 790 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 3: the whole staff to put together an alignment, an arrangement, 791 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 3: a game plan and get the guys super juiced up 792 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 3: to win this game. 793 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 4: I know they're gonna bejuic dub no matter what. They 794 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 4: know how big it is. 795 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 2: Before you go, yeah, charge fired Tom Telesco GM and 796 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 2: Brandis Stone head coach. 797 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, quick thoughts, well it's suprime though, went for it, man, 798 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 3: you were giving me their cap numbers and yeah, like 799 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 3: they definitely added a lot when you look at the 800 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 3: names they have, and we didn't play them this year, 801 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,960 Speaker 3: so we didn't see them up close and personal. But 802 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 3: it is a massive failure because that was a playoff 803 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:21,719 Speaker 3: team last year. We all know what happened to them 804 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 3: in the second half of Jacksonville and now look at them. 805 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 3: It's horrible. I know Herbert's out for the season or 806 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 3: whatever he's out for, and it did not go well 807 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 3: while he was in there. He's a tremendous talent. That's 808 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 3: a great job, Johnny. I know the Spanos family. They 809 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 3: get whatever reviews they get, whatever Yelp reviews they get. 810 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 3: His owners, you're in LA, you got a chance to 811 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 3: really do some things social media wise, not that that's 812 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 3: a factor in coaching them. 813 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 4: They're the number one team in the league in social media. 814 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 1: They're crazy. 815 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 4: It's they got a great department there. 816 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 3: I just think they have a lot of buzz that 817 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,239 Speaker 3: they can create with Herbert and friends. I think it's 818 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 3: a tremendous job for somebody out there, and we'll see what. 819 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 4: Happens to be interesting to watch. Three job quarterback. How 820 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 4: many jobs have quarterbacks like that? 821 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:08,880 Speaker 2: Well, three jobs are open right now, Raiders, Chargers, and Panthers. 822 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 2: The Panthers have got a quarterback like Herbert No, I know, 823 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,239 Speaker 2: I know what you're saying. The Raiders don't quite know. 824 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,319 Speaker 2: Could be a to O'Connell put up sixty three last 825 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,359 Speaker 2: night against the Chargers. That was ugly. That was gross. 826 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 4: Hopefully that Viking go, oh. 827 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 1: My god, oh geez, that was crazy.

There 840 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 11: have been some changes at quarterback and you got a 841 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 11: fun one there, and Will Levis right, now, well, where 842 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 11: do you see this team headed? And I know it's 843 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 11: a broad question to be in things, but what's the 844 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:10,759 Speaker 11: direction of this team right now? 845 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:12,400 Speaker 14: You're good to see. I appreciate you having on. 846 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 15: I mean, it certainly was a momentum mood changer on 847 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 15: Monday night because it's been rough around here. I mean 848 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 15: it's been a long stretch of a lot of losses, 849 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:22,399 Speaker 15: a lot of you. 850 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 14: Know, turboil. 851 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,280 Speaker 15: This team has been fighting through and I think Monday 852 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,240 Speaker 15: came out of nowhere. And you know, with five minutes 853 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 15: left in that game and you're down twenty seven thirteen, 854 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:35,359 Speaker 15: it kind of looked like, be honest, it'd be more 855 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 15: the same, like here we go again finding ways to lose. 856 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:39,800 Speaker 14: But team got. 857 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 15: Off the mat a couple of touchdowns late, got some 858 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 15: big defensive stops, and now with four games left, I 859 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:54,319 Speaker 15: think it's still not very very realistic to think that 860 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:56,840 Speaker 15: you're going to be able to get back in the 861 00:35:56,880 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 15: playoff race. But you can try to build some momentum 862 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,359 Speaker 15: and finish the season off right. And I think that's 863 00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 15: the mindset around here. You know, if some crazy things 864 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:12,320 Speaker 15: happen and you keep winning, maybe maybe the conversation gets different, 865 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 15: but right now, it's just a matter of trying to 866 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,319 Speaker 15: win two games for the in a row for the 867 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 15: first time since November of last year. I mean, that's 868 00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,879 Speaker 15: how long it's been since his team's won two games 869 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 15: in a row. So I think that's and actually you 870 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,280 Speaker 15: got to go to October of last year since. 871 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 14: This team won two rows. That's a long time. 872 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 11: Missing this week something we've been familiar with around here 873 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 11: for a while too. And this has been a fun 874 00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:40,800 Speaker 11: season with regards to all that. But goodness, gracious, Will Levis, 875 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 11: what an interesting guy to watch from AFART seeing him 876 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 11: just talk at the combine, I was really impressed just 877 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,840 Speaker 11: at the podium, and that's only one thing, win football 878 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 11: games at a podium. 879 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 13: But that was cool last year. 880 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:54,279 Speaker 11: And then seeing him truck over Jalen Ramsey the other night, 881 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 11: that was a lot of fun. And I know there's 882 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 11: a lot of scuttle but up there about like don't 883 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,080 Speaker 11: do that again, start sliding, But he seems like a 884 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,319 Speaker 11: fun guy to cover from AFAR watching How much fun 885 00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 11: are you having covering a young quarterback who looks like 886 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 11: he's got some promise and he's got a future. 887 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean it has been fun. He's kind of 888 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 15: re energized the fan base a lot of ways, like CJ. 889 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 15: Shroud has done down there. I mean when every time 890 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 15: anytime you have a new young quarterback coming in, and 891 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,759 Speaker 15: I've been around a lot, you know, from what was 892 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:24,920 Speaker 15: Jake Locker to Vince Young to Marcus Mariota. You know, 893 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 15: sometimes these guys flash early and not and they can't 894 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:33,600 Speaker 15: sustain it. Of the guys that show more staying power. 895 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 15: And I think with him through seven games, I think 896 00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 15: you have to be incurred by what you've seen. He's 897 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,359 Speaker 15: got the strong arm, he's got the toughness, he's got 898 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:45,080 Speaker 15: a little bit of moxy to him. He is very 899 00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 15: well spoken. He seems to do all the right things 900 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:51,840 Speaker 15: from a leadership standpoint. He's completely changed the opinion of 901 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 15: the fan base on him because I think, aboys, that 902 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,080 Speaker 15: was in Nashville after the draft, when the Titans picked 903 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:02,400 Speaker 15: the Levis in May, it wasn't very well received. And 904 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:04,840 Speaker 15: a lot of that's because this is a part of 905 00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 15: the country where people cheer for the University of Tennessee 906 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 15: and they don't like Kentucky players. 907 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:11,600 Speaker 11: But I would, but not to interrupt, But I would 908 00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 11: say there was a lot of skepticism about Levis just 909 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 11: in general. I don't think you guys would have been 910 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 11: alone about that. But he's I mean, I think he's 911 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,440 Speaker 11: changed that narrative, you know, don't you know. 912 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:23,799 Speaker 15: It's true, But here it was there was a little 913 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:26,759 Speaker 15: extra venom in there just because he was a Kentucky guy, 914 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,239 Speaker 15: because he didn't play well against Tennessee. And again, I'm 915 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:31,840 Speaker 15: not a University of Tennis. I mean, I'm not a 916 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:36,200 Speaker 15: Tennessee fan myself. I wasn't along those lots. I wasn't thinking. 917 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 14: Along those lines. But I was honest with you know 918 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 14: where my venable had here. 919 00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,239 Speaker 15: I saw him play against Vandy last year and he 920 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 15: didn't look that good. I saw the stuff about the 921 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,280 Speaker 15: mayonnaise and and some of this other kind of quirky 922 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:54,320 Speaker 15: stuff that kind of turned some people off. Uh, but 923 00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,920 Speaker 15: he's a completely I'll say, he's a completely different guy, 924 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 15: completely different personality that I expected. I spent a little 925 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,400 Speaker 15: bit of time with him, uh at the draft in 926 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 15: Vegas the day before, you know, before the draft, and 927 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:10,840 Speaker 15: even then, I thought, Okay, this guy is a pretty 928 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 15: nice He's a nice young man. 929 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:14,480 Speaker 14: I thought he handled himself well. 930 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,880 Speaker 15: I remember an interaction where he was doing media and 931 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 15: there were kids there that were trying to get autographs 932 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 15: and and I think there was a special needs young 933 00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:25,800 Speaker 15: man that was trying to get his attention while he 934 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 15: was doing a group interview, and and and he was 935 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 15: kind of tonguing at him. 936 00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:31,880 Speaker 14: He was he was getting a little impatient. 937 00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 15: He's getting ready to walk off, and Will Mamby put 938 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 15: his hand on his head and say, hey, hold on, 939 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 15: I got you, and and then he stopped and spent 940 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:39,680 Speaker 15: some time with this kid. I thought that that's a 941 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:43,040 Speaker 15: pretty nice thing to do. And that's that's kind of 942 00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 15: how he's handled himself here. 943 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:45,359 Speaker 14: Like he's been. 944 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:50,120 Speaker 15: He's been very approachable by everyone. The fans love him 945 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 15: and uh, and now they just got to keep them 946 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 15: healthy and they've got to get. 947 00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:54,719 Speaker 14: Better around him. 948 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,520 Speaker 15: I mean, this team, Uh, it was good Monday night 949 00:39:57,880 --> 00:39:58,880 Speaker 15: at the end, but. 950 00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 14: Look at the big picture. 951 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 15: This team five and eight lost a lot of games 952 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 15: going back to last year. So the work needs to 953 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:07,480 Speaker 15: be done for the Titans to get to where they 954 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,040 Speaker 15: can support him and be good on a consistent basis. 955 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 11: Hey, Jim, you saw lots of DeAndre Hopkins over the 956 00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 11: years playing against the Titans, and he had some big games, 957 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 11: had big games against just about every team. What I saw, 958 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:20,840 Speaker 11: and I don't watch the Titans on a regular basis, 959 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:22,520 Speaker 11: but what I saw a lot of on Monday night 960 00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:25,000 Speaker 11: when I was watching that Dolphins game was that looks 961 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 11: like the same guy that was lacing him up here 962 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 11: in Houston for all those years. 963 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 13: What have you seen though, on the whole from Hopkins? 964 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 11: Because he looks like a guy that can help out 965 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:34,800 Speaker 11: any quarterback like he did when he was here, and 966 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:36,399 Speaker 11: it looks like he's helping out Levis there. 967 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:38,839 Speaker 14: Yeah, and tell them he doesn't look like the god. 968 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:40,959 Speaker 14: You will get it. He'll get ticked off. 969 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:41,319 Speaker 9: Like he. 970 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 15: Plays with an edge. Yeah, he obviously keeps for seats, 971 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 15: you know. I guess that's what people want. 972 00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:51,279 Speaker 14: To call it. 973 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,479 Speaker 15: He he is a wader of what people have said 974 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,760 Speaker 15: about him in the past, and he's aware that people 975 00:40:56,840 --> 00:41:02,439 Speaker 15: thought that he was nearing the end of this offseason 976 00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:04,759 Speaker 15: and and a lot of contracts. 977 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:05,440 Speaker 14: Yeah, and so. 978 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:08,040 Speaker 15: He's coming here and he's been really good. I mean, 979 00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:11,840 Speaker 15: he he practices every week. He's he's been a leader 980 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:15,239 Speaker 15: to the young receivers in that room. He's been a 981 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 15: very positive influence around Will Levis to push him to 982 00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:20,720 Speaker 15: be better. 983 00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 14: And then on the field, he's been very productive. 984 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:26,399 Speaker 15: I mean he still gets open, he still catches the ball, 985 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 15: he still is a consistent, you know, big play producer. 986 00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:34,840 Speaker 15: And really been impressed by him because you know, the 987 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 15: Titans have taken a swing at some of these receivers 988 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:39,800 Speaker 15: Andre Johnson. 989 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:40,640 Speaker 13: And Yeah. 990 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:45,320 Speaker 14: Jones, so I mean they. 991 00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 15: Have tried on those guys in the past and it 992 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:48,040 Speaker 15: hasn't worked out. 993 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 14: This one has worked out. 994 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:53,680 Speaker 11: Yeah, he's been he It's interesting what you say about it. 995 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:54,200 Speaker 6: You know, I was. 996 00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,800 Speaker 11: I was at the airport and met him the morning 997 00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:00,880 Speaker 11: after he got drafted when he arrived Houston, rode in 998 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:04,160 Speaker 11: the limo with him from the airport to the stadium 999 00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 11: and we kind of documented his first day here. And yeah, 1000 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:10,760 Speaker 11: he's he's always been a different cat, but my goodness, 1001 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 11: he has produced. He came in as a rookie at 1002 00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:17,360 Speaker 11: eight hundred yards with Shop throwing all the pick sixes 1003 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:17,759 Speaker 11: and the. 1004 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:20,000 Speaker 13: Texans losing fourteen game. I mean, it was a weird. 1005 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:22,040 Speaker 11: He still had eight hundred yards and then it was 1006 00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:24,520 Speaker 11: a thousand pretty much every year, but the brock oswa 1007 00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 11: Oswaller won and then he leaves, and so it was 1008 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 11: it was a tough day in Houston when that trade 1009 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:34,680 Speaker 11: went down. And then Derrick Henry and Taj Spears. That's 1010 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:37,840 Speaker 11: a dangerous duo, Jim. I mean, and we know what 1011 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,239 Speaker 11: the Texans have done against Derrick Henry over the last 1012 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 11: few years. But Texans run defense, to their credit, he's 1013 00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:45,399 Speaker 11: the best run defense they've had since twenty eighteen. Now 1014 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 11: does it hold up and still do what it's been, 1015 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:49,560 Speaker 11: you know, doing all season long on Sunday, We'll see. 1016 00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:51,399 Speaker 11: But what do you make of that match up there 1017 00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:53,400 Speaker 11: with the run game that the Titans have and a 1018 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:55,560 Speaker 11: little bit better run defense by the Texans. 1019 00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:57,520 Speaker 14: Yeah, it'll be interesting. 1020 00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:00,400 Speaker 15: I still think the key to having success to the 1021 00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:03,040 Speaker 15: Titans and to help your quarterback is to get Henry 1022 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:05,399 Speaker 15: going and you take you know, you open up play 1023 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 15: action by doing that, you take some you know, don't 1024 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:11,799 Speaker 15: let the other team just pin their ears back and 1025 00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:14,800 Speaker 15: come at you when you're able to run the football. So, uh, 1026 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:17,919 Speaker 15: the Titans will continue to try to get the run 1027 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:18,399 Speaker 15: game going. 1028 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 14: It's been different. 1029 00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:21,719 Speaker 15: I mean, it's been you know since I've covered Derek 1030 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 15: Henry after the early. 1031 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 14: Years with DeMarco Murray. 1032 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:26,000 Speaker 15: Once he took over this team's lead back, he was 1033 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:28,319 Speaker 15: the team back. He hardly came off the field. He 1034 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:31,080 Speaker 15: was getting all the keys. He was wearing teams down 1035 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:34,399 Speaker 15: as different now with Spears because they are getting him 1036 00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:37,160 Speaker 15: involved and he has been getting better each week, so 1037 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 15: they'll continue to work both of them. Derek has had 1038 00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:44,239 Speaker 15: his good moments and has shown that he can still 1039 00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:47,200 Speaker 15: get it done. But uh, but they have a weapon 1040 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:49,799 Speaker 15: in Spears, and we'll try to use him in the 1041 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,759 Speaker 15: passing game and then in the running game as well. 1042 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:55,200 Speaker 15: And he's coming off has cut off really good. 1043 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:59,000 Speaker 11: Nine on Monday Night, Jim White of the Tennessee Titans 1044 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:01,560 Speaker 11: is the guest. Jim over on the defensive side of 1045 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:03,840 Speaker 11: the ball. A guy who's terrorized the Texans just like 1046 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:08,480 Speaker 11: Henry has on offense, is Jeffrey Simmons. Probably not gonna 1047 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 11: see him if that was your guests on Sunday. 1048 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 14: Yeah, I don't expect to see him. 1049 00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 15: I know when he got hurt, they said be out 1050 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 15: for a couple of weeks and he's just probably you know, 1051 00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:20,600 Speaker 15: ten days removed from that knee injury. So you know, 1052 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:23,120 Speaker 15: he made the trip to Miami and kind of serfs 1053 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 15: as the hype man before the game. I saw him 1054 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:28,080 Speaker 15: in the locker room yesterday. He got a brace on. 1055 00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:31,520 Speaker 15: So I think the timetable for him is is still 1056 00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:34,080 Speaker 15: a couple of weeks away, and the last thing you're 1057 00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:36,320 Speaker 15: gonna do is throw him out there too soon and 1058 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 15: jeopardize his health moving forward. So it's gonna take other 1059 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:44,960 Speaker 15: guys stepping up and playing well, and they had guys 1060 00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 15: do that this past Monday night. But I'll be honest 1061 00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:51,279 Speaker 15: with you, I never thought they'd be able to kind 1062 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:55,520 Speaker 15: of contain the Dolphins like they did. As you know, 1063 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:57,680 Speaker 15: she's been rocking up all kinds of points and tights 1064 00:44:57,800 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 15: a great game playing against him, So it's gonna take 1065 00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:02,480 Speaker 15: another one of those type efforts, you know, moving forward. 1066 00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 15: I know there's some question marks in Houston about who's 1067 00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:06,840 Speaker 15: playing on offense and what that's like. 1068 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:09,759 Speaker 14: So but the times they got to get ready. 1069 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:10,800 Speaker 13: Yeah, stay with Simmons. 1070 00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 11: I know he's probably not going to play, but you've 1071 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:14,439 Speaker 11: seen a lot of football in your time. 1072 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 13: How good is that guy. 1073 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:19,319 Speaker 11: I don't think he gets enough recognition nationally that he 1074 00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:21,759 Speaker 11: probably should, because it's like I said, man, he just 1075 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 11: recks shop every time he lines up against us, and 1076 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,040 Speaker 11: We're not the only team he does that with. Does 1077 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:28,239 Speaker 11: he remind you of anybody you've covered or seen in 1078 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:29,080 Speaker 11: the past. 1079 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 14: You know, maybe Albert Hainsworth. 1080 00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:34,560 Speaker 15: I mean, he's he's because Albert was such a disruptive 1081 00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 15: force for the Titans on defense back in the early 1082 00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:45,000 Speaker 15: two thousands and and he was a player that offense 1083 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:48,520 Speaker 15: has had to worry about at the snap. And Jeffers 1084 00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:53,359 Speaker 15: Simmons is just kind of a relentless competitor. I'm with 1085 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 15: you that I don't think he gets the credit that 1086 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 15: he deserves. 1087 00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:57,480 Speaker 14: You know, yeah he has. 1088 00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:01,000 Speaker 15: He's made it to Pro Bowls, and think coaches and 1089 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:03,759 Speaker 15: players are aware of what he can do. But you know, 1090 00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:07,440 Speaker 15: NFL puts out the top ten fan voting at certain 1091 00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,360 Speaker 15: positions and he didn't even make top ten at defensive tackle, 1092 00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:11,240 Speaker 15: which is hard to believe. 1093 00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:12,640 Speaker 13: So yeah, it's crime. 1094 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:14,759 Speaker 14: Yeah, so I mean so so he is. 1095 00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 15: Really he is a foundational piece for them, and despite 1096 00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,839 Speaker 15: all the changes they've had, I think priority number one 1097 00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:25,200 Speaker 15: this passed off seasons to make sure you get him 1098 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:28,839 Speaker 15: here long term. And he he's been great. I mean, 1099 00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:30,960 Speaker 15: he's a really good player on the field. He's his 1100 00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:35,759 Speaker 15: team's Walter Payton, you know, NFL man a year nominee 1101 00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:38,880 Speaker 15: for what he does in the community. He's gonna be 1102 00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:41,879 Speaker 15: around here for years to come. And h And he's 1103 00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:44,759 Speaker 15: a tone setter because he bust his butt out there 1104 00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 15: at practice and he bust his butt in the games, 1105 00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:49,960 Speaker 15: and if other guys aren't doing the same, he's the 1106 00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:51,799 Speaker 15: type of guy that'll let him know about it. So 1107 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:54,960 Speaker 15: even though I don't expect him to play Sunday, I 1108 00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:56,879 Speaker 15: think he'll be chirping on the sideline. 1109 00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,840 Speaker 11: Jim Whittt, we sure do appreciate the time of the Tennessee. 1110 00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:02,319 Speaker 11: Is always good to get your perspective on things.

It is Andre Johnson who is 1129 00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:57,440 Speaker 3: doing various things with us. But Drake, great to see you, welcome, 1130 00:47:57,560 --> 00:47:58,520 Speaker 3: Good to see you guys. 1131 00:47:58,600 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 4: All right, so. 1132 00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:02,279 Speaker 3: Let's just go present day, shall we. With the team 1133 00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:05,640 Speaker 3: in a little bit of a pickle right now, injury situation, 1134 00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:08,760 Speaker 3: really big game, gotta win it late in the season. 1135 00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:10,480 Speaker 4: How do you think the. 1136 00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:15,160 Speaker 3: Bodies are feeling the magnitude of the situation, maybe having 1137 00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:18,120 Speaker 3: to go without the quarterback, all of that added up 1138 00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:19,879 Speaker 3: as you take on Tennessee on the road. 1139 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:23,040 Speaker 7: Well, I think everybody's beat up right now. I mean 1140 00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:28,319 Speaker 7: it's a long season, you know, playing seventeen games now, 1141 00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:32,480 Speaker 7: so it's a very long season. I just think the 1142 00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:36,640 Speaker 7: biggest thing is that the whoever's playing, they just have 1143 00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:43,120 Speaker 7: to rally around each other, you know, only takes a 1144 00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:47,040 Speaker 7: couple plays to win a game. So you know, you 1145 00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:49,960 Speaker 7: are to rally around each other and just play good football, 1146 00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:53,400 Speaker 7: and you know, just kind of see what happens andre. 1147 00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:55,319 Speaker 2: You run a lot of quarterbacks here. I think probably 1148 00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:57,439 Speaker 2: played the longest stretch maybe with Matt, but you played 1149 00:48:57,440 --> 00:48:59,360 Speaker 2: with a number of quarterbacks while you're in this building. 1150 00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:01,319 Speaker 2: What do you see in the quarterback now? 1151 00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 10: CJ. 1152 00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:03,040 Speaker 1: Straub, what have you seen the young guy? 1153 00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:06,840 Speaker 7: I mean he, I mean, he has a potential to 1154 00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:12,960 Speaker 7: have a great career. He's you can tell he's definitely 1155 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:16,680 Speaker 7: a guy that learns from his mistakes. But you know, 1156 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:18,640 Speaker 7: as a rookie you still have a little a few 1157 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:22,759 Speaker 7: growing pains here and there. You know, he got beat 1158 00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:26,719 Speaker 7: up a little bit last week, so you know, I 1159 00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:29,439 Speaker 7: don't really think he got beat up much this year. 1160 00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,040 Speaker 7: You know, most rookies when they come in, they take 1161 00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:33,720 Speaker 7: a lot of hits and they get beat up pretty 1162 00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:38,239 Speaker 7: pretty good. But he's main he's maintained most of the 1163 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:42,479 Speaker 7: seasons and hasn't done a great job. So I only 1164 00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:43,560 Speaker 7: expect him to get better. 1165 00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:46,520 Speaker 3: Well, we talk about that year one to year two improvement, 1166 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:49,120 Speaker 3: and if there's improvement, that's really great. 1167 00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:50,719 Speaker 4: But what is that like? 1168 00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:54,919 Speaker 3: That transition from rookie year, you get into the offseason, 1169 00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:56,960 Speaker 3: you can work on whatever you need to work on, 1170 00:49:57,040 --> 00:49:59,279 Speaker 3: don't have to worry about pre draft, post draft, all 1171 00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:01,719 Speaker 3: that rookie can Now you're a vet. What can he 1172 00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:04,000 Speaker 3: do this offseason as he gets ready for a year two? 1173 00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:05,520 Speaker 3: What's going to be like the whole process? 1174 00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:09,400 Speaker 7: Well, I think the thing is that you as a 1175 00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:14,919 Speaker 7: rookie year you kind of just learning, you know, you 1176 00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:17,359 Speaker 7: you get to experience a lot of different things, a 1177 00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:23,280 Speaker 7: lot of different situations during games. But with him being 1178 00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:25,880 Speaker 7: able to go out and perform the way he has 1179 00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:31,040 Speaker 7: as a rookie, that's what makes the future look so 1180 00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:35,200 Speaker 7: bright for him because he's been in a situation. He 1181 00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:38,560 Speaker 7: you come back that second year, you've been in those situations. 1182 00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:43,480 Speaker 7: You understand what's going on. There could be teams that 1183 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 7: you played against, you know, like your division teams and 1184 00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:50,400 Speaker 7: things you see, things you may experience and you know 1185 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:55,200 Speaker 7: what to expect. So those are the things you you 1186 00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:59,600 Speaker 7: harp on, you try to learn from and you just 1187 00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:02,719 Speaker 7: try to, you know, go over the mistakes that you did, 1188 00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:04,920 Speaker 7: make it so that you won't be making them again. 1189 00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 7: But he's done a great job. 1190 00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:07,840 Speaker 1: Of that Andre. 1191 00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:10,960 Speaker 2: You're in the building for about three or four years 1192 00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:14,560 Speaker 2: and then a young rookie comes from Alabama. Demko ryans 1193 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:17,480 Speaker 2: you've seen him blossom into a rookie head coach. What 1194 00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:19,200 Speaker 2: are your thoughts about what Themiko has done with the 1195 00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:21,800 Speaker 2: organization and then his head coach of this team. 1196 00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:27,200 Speaker 7: He's done a great job. I don't know if a 1197 00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:30,160 Speaker 7: lot of people remember when I think it was my 1198 00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:33,920 Speaker 7: first time on here after he got the job, and 1199 00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:36,960 Speaker 7: I think Mark asked me like, what did I expect? 1200 00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:40,200 Speaker 7: And I was like, don't be surprised. Yeah, yeah, and yeah, 1201 00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:43,640 Speaker 7: a lot of people. I think this year surprised a 1202 00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:47,600 Speaker 7: lot of people. I don't think they thought it would 1203 00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:51,680 Speaker 7: be in a situation when right now. But for him, 1204 00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:54,319 Speaker 7: he's done a great job. And if you know him 1205 00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:59,280 Speaker 7: as a person, you know that the players are gonna 1206 00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:02,839 Speaker 7: want to play for him. And I think with him 1207 00:52:02,880 --> 00:52:06,400 Speaker 7: being here too, with us hiring him, we've created a 1208 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:12,120 Speaker 7: destination for free agents. So he has a great just 1209 00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:16,239 Speaker 7: overall name and reputation around the league, and you know, 1210 00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:20,000 Speaker 7: guys wanna, you know, come play for m Andre. 1211 00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:25,080 Speaker 3: The Titans will be wearing the Oilers' uniforms and when 1212 00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:27,880 Speaker 3: we revealed this to Tamico Ryans during his show, and 1213 00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:29,839 Speaker 3: he was sitting in the chair you're sitting in right now, 1214 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:31,760 Speaker 3: he had a little bit of a bit of a reaction. 1215 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:33,560 Speaker 4: He was getting fired up. 1216 00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:38,080 Speaker 3: Those are his words about that prospect, even though he 1217 00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:39,840 Speaker 3: wasn't here when the Oilers played, and you weren't here 1218 00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:42,279 Speaker 3: when the Oilers played. Yeah, here just a few years later. 1219 00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:45,080 Speaker 3: But does that speak to you at all that they'll 1220 00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:48,560 Speaker 3: be doing that and that they have the logo all 1221 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:51,440 Speaker 3: over their social media and they're calling it the Texans 1222 00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:53,400 Speaker 3: versus the Oilers and stuff like that. 1223 00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:54,560 Speaker 4: Does that say anything to you? 1224 00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:57,200 Speaker 3: And do you think that can possibly be conveyed to 1225 00:52:57,239 --> 00:52:59,680 Speaker 3: the current players to help the cause of it. 1226 00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:07,520 Speaker 7: I think it's something that it's personal. I think that 1227 00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:13,960 Speaker 7: if you look at it when we had the age 1228 00:53:13,960 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 7: Town Blue and the University of Houston war, you know, 1229 00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:23,160 Speaker 7: the blue uniforms, I mean, they took it very personal. 1230 00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:29,359 Speaker 7: But I mean nothing about Tennessee says oil Us. I 1231 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:32,960 Speaker 7: mean for me growing up as a kid, even I 1232 00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:35,840 Speaker 7: remember when I first got in the league and you know, 1233 00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:38,680 Speaker 7: people would ask me, like most of the time people 1234 00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:41,240 Speaker 7: thought I played basketball, and I was like, nah, play football, 1235 00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:44,520 Speaker 7: and they'd be like, what team you played for? When 1236 00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:46,480 Speaker 7: I'd be like Houston, they'd be like the Oilers, and 1237 00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:52,759 Speaker 7: I'm like, nah, it's the Texans now. So everything, I mean, 1238 00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:55,040 Speaker 7: like I said, I think it's personal, and I think 1239 00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:58,920 Speaker 7: it's something that that me Coca used as motivation to 1240 00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:02,200 Speaker 7: motivate the guys and just kind of give them the 1241 00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:04,600 Speaker 7: history of what oiler was, about what it stood for. 1242 00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:08,520 Speaker 7: And I mean the stadium was right next door. So 1243 00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:11,480 Speaker 7: I think it's definitely something we could use as motivation. 1244 00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:16,839 Speaker 2: Andre on social media a couple of days ago, there 1245 00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:18,879 Speaker 2: was a TV there was a snippet I think it's 1246 00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:21,920 Speaker 2: from the eight game They've been nine, and it showed 1247 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:26,520 Speaker 2: you guys against the Titans, and it showed Kyle Vandenbosch 1248 00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:29,400 Speaker 2: like yelling everybody in Texas sideline. Everybody in the Texas 1249 00:54:29,440 --> 00:54:32,520 Speaker 2: sideline wanted to fight Vanderbosh, Joeldrieson being first and foremost. 1250 00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:34,759 Speaker 2: Joels always told us about those stories with he and 1251 00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:37,800 Speaker 2: vanden Bosch. How nasty was that rivalry with you in 1252 00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:39,160 Speaker 2: Tennessee during that time. 1253 00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:45,759 Speaker 7: It was bad. It was really bad. If you pull up. 1254 00:54:46,520 --> 00:54:50,920 Speaker 7: So the whole thing kind of started when we ran up. 1255 00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:52,919 Speaker 7: It was a play like the first play of the game, 1256 00:54:53,120 --> 00:54:58,840 Speaker 7: and we cracked. We ran like a crack block and 1257 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:06,439 Speaker 7: it kind of like at the tone that's why. So yeah, 1258 00:55:07,320 --> 00:55:12,680 Speaker 7: Joel was the long snapper and like he he would 1259 00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:18,320 Speaker 7: snap for field goals and punts and the whole d 1260 00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:21,319 Speaker 7: Lion would be chasing him like it was like the 1261 00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:25,000 Speaker 7: funniest thing, you like what we would watch the whole film, 1262 00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:29,160 Speaker 7: but it became like a personal like a personal thing 1263 00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:32,279 Speaker 7: and like, uh, you know the thing will happen with 1264 00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:35,879 Speaker 7: me and Finnigain and you know, it just it was 1265 00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:38,200 Speaker 7: it was just something that was different, Like we knew 1266 00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:40,560 Speaker 7: when they came here to play us and we came 1267 00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:43,680 Speaker 7: here to play them. It was just anything was bound 1268 00:55:43,719 --> 00:55:48,520 Speaker 7: to happen. So I think that's something that we need 1269 00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:49,280 Speaker 7: to bring back. 1270 00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:52,640 Speaker 3: Well with the Finnegan thing. I was listening to some cuts, 1271 00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:55,959 Speaker 3: just listening to the nine game week two up there 1272 00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:59,520 Speaker 3: when you had that sort of bench wasn't really a brawl. 1273 00:55:59,560 --> 00:56:02,040 Speaker 3: The guy's but you can shoving and Mario's over there 1274 00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:03,560 Speaker 3: and it's just a big mess. 1275 00:56:03,719 --> 00:56:05,279 Speaker 4: And I'm mentioning Finnegan's name. 1276 00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:08,320 Speaker 3: He's in there, and he comes out and It started 1277 00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:12,560 Speaker 3: way before the twenty ten incident between you two, right, yeah. 1278 00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:17,919 Speaker 7: So I don't know if you remember Bryce McCain it back. 1279 00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:22,360 Speaker 7: So I used to just watch. I used to just 1280 00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:26,759 Speaker 7: see like stuff he would do, and you know, I 1281 00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:29,839 Speaker 7: used to you know, you try to keep your composure, 1282 00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:35,360 Speaker 7: you know. And it was a punt play and he, 1283 00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:38,600 Speaker 7: like I think Bryce was a rookie, and he like 1284 00:56:38,719 --> 00:56:42,920 Speaker 7: grabbed Bryce and like threw him to the grounds like 1285 00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:46,040 Speaker 7: something crazy. And I literally, like to wanted to run 1286 00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:51,239 Speaker 7: off the sideline because you know, I'm a guy. I'm 1287 00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:55,200 Speaker 7: gonna stand up for my teammates. So I just told 1288 00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:58,160 Speaker 7: Larry we got the ball back. I told Larry. I 1289 00:56:58,200 --> 00:57:01,160 Speaker 7: was like, man, I was just like I'm about to 1290 00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:03,359 Speaker 7: go at him, and he was like, what you mean. 1291 00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:06,759 Speaker 7: I was like, just watch so if you look at 1292 00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:10,680 Speaker 7: that play, like it was a run play, and I 1293 00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:12,759 Speaker 7: literally took him from the field all the way to 1294 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:16,920 Speaker 7: the water cooler, like and I was trying and it 1295 00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:20,280 Speaker 7: got to the point of where like some punches and 1296 00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:25,120 Speaker 7: stuff war thrown. But because of the way everybody was 1297 00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:28,880 Speaker 7: crowded in the on the sideline, you really couldn't see 1298 00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:29,640 Speaker 7: what was going on. 1299 00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:32,480 Speaker 4: Oh wow, Yeah, that is awesome. 1300 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:36,080 Speaker 2: I mean in that game where you have with this 1301 00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:38,600 Speaker 2: incidant in twenty ten, you catch your touchdown early on 1302 00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:43,840 Speaker 2: in that game, right, was your success? For better way 1303 00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:46,440 Speaker 2: of saying, what pissing him off more? In that kind 1304 00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:47,320 Speaker 2: of led even more. 1305 00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:48,280 Speaker 7: Yeah? 1306 00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:50,640 Speaker 2: Was he kind of agitated more because you were having 1307 00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 2: that success against him? 1308 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:52,280 Speaker 10: Yeah? He was. 1309 00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:57,120 Speaker 7: He used to get mad because we used to run 1310 00:57:57,200 --> 00:58:00,640 Speaker 7: these re routes and he couldn't stop it. Yeah, So 1311 00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:05,840 Speaker 7: it was always I always had a choice to either 1312 00:58:06,600 --> 00:58:08,760 Speaker 7: take the post or I could just sit the route down. 1313 00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:11,520 Speaker 7: And he was like, he used to always tell me, 1314 00:58:11,560 --> 00:58:13,800 Speaker 7: you ain't nothing. All you could do is run double 1315 00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:17,640 Speaker 7: moves like he and they used to irritate him. So 1316 00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:23,800 Speaker 7: in that same game he cost them the game. If 1317 00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:30,840 Speaker 7: you remember, we ran a reroute and that week coach Kobiak, 1318 00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:33,560 Speaker 7: it was either Koubiak or Kyle.

There was three statues and he was 1644 01:11:42,680 --> 01:11:45,679 Speaker 12: one of them, two thousand winners, and so the statue 1645 01:11:45,680 --> 01:11:47,840 Speaker 12: he's like larger than life as it is. We'll walk 1646 01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:49,680 Speaker 12: by every day and then you meet him. If you 1647 01:11:49,720 --> 01:11:51,439 Speaker 12: ever get the chance to meet him.

And I think 1721 01:14:11,960 --> 01:14:14,040 Speaker 12: it was we sat down and discussed it one day. 1722 01:14:14,080 --> 01:14:16,000 Speaker 12: We think it stems from playing baseball when I was younger, 1723 01:14:16,040 --> 01:14:18,639 Speaker 12: because I called him Christensaw. My parents ended christ and Sally, 1724 01:14:18,800 --> 01:14:21,320 Speaker 12: and I call him christ and Sow. And it started 1725 01:14:21,479 --> 01:14:23,000 Speaker 12: way too young for me to be doing that. But 1726 01:14:23,040 --> 01:14:25,000 Speaker 12: then we decided that that was It was like I 1727 01:14:25,000 --> 01:14:27,040 Speaker 12: got tired of yelling dad or mom, and like twelve 1728 01:14:27,080 --> 01:14:29,160 Speaker 12: people turned over looking and see yell Chris, And then 1729 01:14:29,160 --> 01:14:31,000 Speaker 12: I get, you know the one. So I think that's 1730 01:14:31,000 --> 01:14:33,760 Speaker 12: where from? But now I've never had any nicknames. My 1731 01:14:33,840 --> 01:14:36,320 Speaker 12: parents tried to make juristic. It never stuck. My mother 1732 01:14:36,360 --> 01:14:39,080 Speaker 12: said if I went by Andy, she'd killed me. So 1733 01:14:39,280 --> 01:14:44,360 Speaker 12: we struck with back.

But certainly I think that that went on 1791 01:16:57,800 --> 01:17:00,400 Speaker 9: Monday Night and the way it went down with the 1792 01:17:00,600 --> 01:17:03,320 Speaker 9: with the comeback in the last two minutes, you know, 1793 01:17:03,640 --> 01:17:05,680 Speaker 9: it had to be an energy boost, had to be 1794 01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:08,320 Speaker 9: a nice kind of a jump start. For this Titans 1795 01:17:08,320 --> 01:17:10,960 Speaker 9: team that hasn't seen a lot of winning lately, so 1796 01:17:11,400 --> 01:17:14,479 Speaker 9: you know, they're in an unusual circumstance all of a 1797 01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:17,439 Speaker 9: sudden where you're, as you kind of reference there where 1798 01:17:17,479 --> 01:17:19,640 Speaker 9: you're maybe a little worried, Hey, are they going to 1799 01:17:19,720 --> 01:17:21,960 Speaker 9: be able to come back and get emotionally set for 1800 01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:24,599 Speaker 9: a game after a big win which hasn't happened too 1801 01:17:24,600 --> 01:17:26,920 Speaker 9: often for the Titans here late, but you know, maybe 1802 01:17:26,920 --> 01:17:27,960 Speaker 9: that's the case this week. 1803 01:17:28,400 --> 01:17:31,160 Speaker 13: Yeah, you know, I love that you use the word slog. 1804 01:17:31,640 --> 01:17:34,360 Speaker 11: Because it seems like when these two teams have played 1805 01:17:34,360 --> 01:17:37,400 Speaker 11: over the last four years or so, those games are 1806 01:17:37,439 --> 01:17:40,680 Speaker 11: a slog. You know, they kind of despite being you know, 1807 01:17:41,320 --> 01:17:44,000 Speaker 11: so far apart talent wise a lot of the lot 1808 01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:46,479 Speaker 11: of the time, they still come together. It's a it's 1809 01:17:46,520 --> 01:17:49,679 Speaker 11: a division battle. It's never easier than it should be. 1810 01:17:50,240 --> 01:17:52,160 Speaker 11: You know, what do you make of this matchup heading 1811 01:17:52,280 --> 01:17:54,800 Speaker 11: into this one with where these two teams are. Are 1812 01:17:54,800 --> 01:17:58,360 Speaker 11: the Texans obviously having some quarterback problems with the concussion. 1813 01:17:58,400 --> 01:18:01,599 Speaker 11: We'll see j Stroud doubt he played and Will Levis 1814 01:18:01,640 --> 01:18:03,720 Speaker 11: is a young guy who really flashed on Monday night, 1815 01:18:03,800 --> 01:18:06,080 Speaker 11: but at times he can give you the ball away. 1816 01:18:06,680 --> 01:18:10,280 Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, both true. You know, I think I think 1817 01:18:10,320 --> 01:18:13,960 Speaker 9: it'll be pretty interesting game, you know, because again i'm 1818 01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:16,759 Speaker 9: seeing from a forge just as far as the Texans 1819 01:18:16,760 --> 01:18:20,280 Speaker 9: are concerned. But yeah, you know that certainly appears to 1820 01:18:20,280 --> 01:18:22,720 Speaker 9: be a strong possibility that that Stroud will be out 1821 01:18:22,760 --> 01:18:25,240 Speaker 9: after suffering a concussion there, and you know, some of 1822 01:18:25,320 --> 01:18:28,680 Speaker 9: the other offensive losses we've seen, you know, you know, 1823 01:18:28,800 --> 01:18:31,080 Speaker 9: certainly Tank Dell and and you know, I guess Dalton 1824 01:18:31,120 --> 01:18:34,640 Speaker 9: Schultz is just coming back, and probably Nico Collins is 1825 01:18:34,640 --> 01:18:37,759 Speaker 9: still up in the air too. So you know, I'm 1826 01:18:37,840 --> 01:18:41,200 Speaker 9: not sure if the Texans were completely healthy offensively, I'm 1827 01:18:41,240 --> 01:18:43,719 Speaker 9: not sure the Titans could kind of match them score 1828 01:18:43,840 --> 01:18:46,519 Speaker 9: for score, But you know, the injuries may kind of 1829 01:18:46,560 --> 01:18:49,599 Speaker 9: bring this down to the Titans level where they stand 1830 01:18:49,680 --> 01:18:52,120 Speaker 9: right now. And and I'll go back to the to 1831 01:18:52,160 --> 01:18:54,559 Speaker 9: the words slog once again, that's kind of what the 1832 01:18:54,600 --> 01:18:56,920 Speaker 9: Titans like to do. You know, for the for the 1833 01:18:56,960 --> 01:19:00,120 Speaker 9: most part, that's a mirable formula for victory for the 1834 01:19:00,120 --> 01:19:01,840 Speaker 9: most part of if you can kind of keep it 1835 01:19:01,960 --> 01:19:05,600 Speaker 9: low scoring, if Titans can win you know, time of possession, 1836 01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:09,880 Speaker 9: that type of thing. But you know, we did see 1837 01:19:09,920 --> 01:19:13,800 Speaker 9: some more flashes of maybe some more, you know, offense 1838 01:19:13,840 --> 01:19:16,840 Speaker 9: and entertainment and spark from the Titans in that Monday 1839 01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:19,639 Speaker 9: Night game and Will Levis, you know, as you referenced 1840 01:19:19,640 --> 01:19:22,519 Speaker 9: in particular. You know, I think in addition to his 1841 01:19:22,560 --> 01:19:25,400 Speaker 9: first game, the one where he threw four TD passes 1842 01:19:25,400 --> 01:19:28,679 Speaker 9: against Atlanta, I think Monday Night game was certainly probably 1843 01:19:28,720 --> 01:19:31,759 Speaker 9: his second best there, you know, his first three hundred 1844 01:19:32,120 --> 01:19:36,160 Speaker 9: yard game, his first fourth quarter comeback, and especially how 1845 01:19:36,280 --> 01:19:39,360 Speaker 9: late that game went, with the Titans trailing you two 1846 01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:42,960 Speaker 9: touchdowns under four minutes left, and for him to you know, 1847 01:19:43,000 --> 01:19:47,040 Speaker 9: execute a couple of touchdown drives with under as I said, 1848 01:19:47,120 --> 01:19:49,920 Speaker 9: under four minutes left, to bring him back from two 1849 01:19:49,920 --> 01:19:53,120 Speaker 9: touchdowns back, and not only to bring him even, but 1850 01:19:53,160 --> 01:19:55,599 Speaker 9: actually to win in regulation. You know, I think that's 1851 01:19:55,640 --> 01:19:58,240 Speaker 9: got to give him a boost of confidence moving forward. 1852 01:19:58,479 --> 01:20:01,000 Speaker 11: John Glennon of the Nashville Post joining us in. John, 1853 01:20:01,160 --> 01:20:03,599 Speaker 11: you've been around, You've covered some things. Does he remind 1854 01:20:03,600 --> 01:20:05,799 Speaker 11: you of anybody you've seen in the past quarterback wise? 1855 01:20:06,560 --> 01:20:11,599 Speaker 9: You know, his style and his frame, you know, looks 1856 01:20:11,600 --> 01:20:15,840 Speaker 9: an awful lot actually like Ryan Tannehill. You know, that's 1857 01:20:15,880 --> 01:20:18,840 Speaker 9: about the size, and he's got a big arm, like 1858 01:20:18,840 --> 01:20:24,320 Speaker 9: like Ryan Tannehill. Two. You know, in terms of of leadership, 1859 01:20:25,720 --> 01:20:28,519 Speaker 9: you know, you look a little bit at Tannehill and 1860 01:20:28,560 --> 01:20:30,920 Speaker 9: then you know you might even look as far back 1861 01:20:31,240 --> 01:20:33,840 Speaker 9: in terms of being a young leader as the fame 1862 01:20:33,960 --> 01:20:37,720 Speaker 9: Steve McNair. I think it's obviously way too early, you know, 1863 01:20:37,880 --> 01:20:41,000 Speaker 9: to suggest he's, you know, the next Steve McNair or 1864 01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:44,320 Speaker 9: anything like that. But we saw some flashes of that leadership, 1865 01:20:45,280 --> 01:20:47,719 Speaker 9: you know, in a couple of different ways. I thought one, 1866 01:20:48,080 --> 01:20:50,640 Speaker 9: and this is a little unusual to say about a quarterback, 1867 01:20:51,120 --> 01:20:55,240 Speaker 9: is his physicality. You know, and we all knew legendary 1868 01:20:55,280 --> 01:20:59,400 Speaker 9: Steve McNair in that respect. But back to back scrambles 1869 01:20:59,640 --> 01:21:02,519 Speaker 9: against Miami and that Monday night game. You know, in 1870 01:21:02,600 --> 01:21:06,840 Speaker 9: the first one, lowered his shoulder into Jalen Ramsey, got it, 1871 01:21:06,880 --> 01:21:09,840 Speaker 9: got a few extra yards that way. Even after he 1872 01:21:09,960 --> 01:21:12,360 Speaker 9: threw that pick six. You know, guy winds up in 1873 01:21:12,439 --> 01:21:14,920 Speaker 9: the end zone, he's trying to tackle the guy in 1874 01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:17,000 Speaker 9: the end zone, dropping his shoulder on the guy in 1875 01:21:17,040 --> 01:21:19,240 Speaker 9: the end zone. And when you're going, you know, take 1876 01:21:19,280 --> 01:21:22,800 Speaker 9: it easy there will take it easy. But not only that, 1877 01:21:22,880 --> 01:21:25,679 Speaker 9: but you know, the ployees, I thought that he showed 1878 01:21:25,720 --> 01:21:28,680 Speaker 9: because he really could have gone to pieces. You know, 1879 01:21:28,840 --> 01:21:31,400 Speaker 9: you throw a pick six on your on your second drive, 1880 01:21:32,000 --> 01:21:35,000 Speaker 9: easy to fall apart in a Monday night football game, 1881 01:21:35,360 --> 01:21:37,640 Speaker 9: and then even late in the game, actually has that 1882 01:21:37,760 --> 01:21:41,040 Speaker 9: bad hitch to Derrick Henry that leads to us another 1883 01:21:41,080 --> 01:21:44,040 Speaker 9: Dolphins touchdown puts him down twenty seven to thirteen. You're 1884 01:21:44,080 --> 01:21:47,120 Speaker 9: wondering whether how much that affects him. But both times, 1885 01:21:47,160 --> 01:21:49,920 Speaker 9: you know, came back, came back for the touchdown drive 1886 01:21:49,920 --> 01:21:52,839 Speaker 9: after the first and two touchdown drives after that second 1887 01:21:53,520 --> 01:21:55,479 Speaker 9: you know turnover there. So a lot of good things 1888 01:21:55,560 --> 01:21:58,560 Speaker 9: came out of that game, I think for for Will Levis. 1889 01:21:58,240 --> 01:22:00,760 Speaker 11: John Glennon of the Nashville Post on us in John, 1890 01:22:00,920 --> 01:22:04,599 Speaker 11: you just referenced that scramble of him trucking over Jalen 1891 01:22:04,680 --> 01:22:08,120 Speaker 11: Ramsey and listen, I'm I'm a Houstonian, so my sports 1892 01:22:08,120 --> 01:22:11,000 Speaker 11: hate not real hate. Well, my sports hate is always 1893 01:22:11,040 --> 01:22:13,760 Speaker 11: on you know, Defcon five or deft Con one for 1894 01:22:13,760 --> 01:22:17,120 Speaker 11: for anything Titans wise, that scramble had it cracking through 1895 01:22:17,160 --> 01:22:17,599 Speaker 11: my hate. 1896 01:22:17,640 --> 01:22:19,400 Speaker 13: I mean, I love seeing that. 1897 01:22:19,520 --> 01:22:21,600 Speaker 11: It was so much fun and I was like, dang it, 1898 01:22:21,640 --> 01:22:23,479 Speaker 11: I don't want to like this guy, but I really do. 1899 01:22:23,600 --> 01:22:25,960 Speaker 11: I mean, it's is he is he as fun to 1900 01:22:26,160 --> 01:22:29,600 Speaker 11: cover up close as it's you know, for for me 1901 01:22:29,680 --> 01:22:32,240 Speaker 11: to watch from afar or is it something else. 1902 01:22:32,120 --> 01:22:35,000 Speaker 9: For you now it's it's very much that same way 1903 01:22:35,040 --> 01:22:37,880 Speaker 9: we've we've loved him, you know, in terms from a 1904 01:22:37,880 --> 01:22:41,439 Speaker 9: media standpoint and from able to watch him too. You know, 1905 01:22:41,600 --> 01:22:45,600 Speaker 9: he's a very honest guy. He's entertaining too though you 1906 01:22:45,640 --> 01:22:48,920 Speaker 9: know a lot of quarterbacks you know, kind of tend 1907 01:22:48,960 --> 01:22:52,640 Speaker 9: towards the vanilla these days, un understandable given all the 1908 01:22:52,720 --> 01:22:56,560 Speaker 9: you know, the potential repercussions. But but you know, he is, 1909 01:22:56,960 --> 01:23:00,479 Speaker 9: he's funny, he's honest, uh you know, and and he 1910 01:23:00,560 --> 01:23:04,040 Speaker 9: talks about his his quirks and his deficiencies also. So 1911 01:23:04,120 --> 01:23:08,160 Speaker 9: he's been great. And I think just from a fan standpoint, 1912 01:23:08,479 --> 01:23:10,840 Speaker 9: I think they love the fire that they see in 1913 01:23:10,880 --> 01:23:12,400 Speaker 9: this guy. You know, there were a lot of clips 1914 01:23:12,840 --> 01:23:16,120 Speaker 9: you mentioned the the on field with Jalen Ramsey. I 1915 01:23:16,120 --> 01:23:19,040 Speaker 9: think he almost struck a few of his teammates and 1916 01:23:19,080 --> 01:23:21,560 Speaker 9: a few of the assistant coaches on the sideline, and 1917 01:23:21,720 --> 01:23:25,320 Speaker 9: especially after that second score, one of one of the Titans, 1918 01:23:25,800 --> 01:23:27,639 Speaker 9: you know, I think it was an assistant trainer kind 1919 01:23:27,640 --> 01:23:30,519 Speaker 9: of came up to give him the customary chest bump 1920 01:23:30,800 --> 01:23:34,679 Speaker 9: after that second touchdown, and I think Lewis almost knocked 1921 01:23:34,720 --> 01:23:36,559 Speaker 9: him into the into the first row of the stands, 1922 01:23:36,920 --> 01:23:39,400 Speaker 9: and the guy kind of retreated, you know, very quickly 1923 01:23:39,439 --> 01:23:42,240 Speaker 9: after that. And I saw another assistant who it appeared 1924 01:23:42,280 --> 01:23:45,000 Speaker 9: like he was about to move towards Lewis and congratulate him, 1925 01:23:45,240 --> 01:23:47,479 Speaker 9: kind of moved away a little bit, you know, took 1926 01:23:47,520 --> 01:23:50,639 Speaker 9: a few yards back after that, after seeing an initial 1927 01:23:50,680 --> 01:23:56,120 Speaker 9: chess bump. But just an incredible, you know, sort of 1928 01:23:56,160 --> 01:23:59,960 Speaker 9: display of fire and competitiveness, and then that's that's that's 1929 01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:01,800 Speaker 9: it's all great, But it doesn't matter if you're not 1930 01:24:01,840 --> 01:24:05,439 Speaker 9: playing well. They just combined both, you know, so far anyway, 1931 01:24:05,640 --> 01:24:06,799 Speaker 9: in a very early career. 1932 01:24:07,280 --> 01:24:08,800 Speaker 11: I'm gonna be the first to admit I don't watch 1933 01:24:08,800 --> 01:24:11,479 Speaker 11: every single Titans game. I watched a big chunk of 1934 01:24:11,479 --> 01:24:15,440 Speaker 11: the Monday nighter, and everything I saw of DeAndre Hopkins 1935 01:24:15,960 --> 01:24:19,280 Speaker 11: looked like everything I saw when he played here from 1936 01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:23,639 Speaker 11: thirteen through nineteen. He looked really, really impressive. Now that's 1937 01:24:23,680 --> 01:24:26,200 Speaker 11: just one small sample size. What have you seen from 1938 01:24:26,240 --> 01:24:29,400 Speaker 11: him on the whole this year? Am I close in 1939 01:24:29,439 --> 01:24:31,559 Speaker 11: that regard? Because he doesn't look like he's lost any 1940 01:24:31,560 --> 01:24:33,880 Speaker 11: step at all, he looked like the guy I remember 1941 01:24:33,920 --> 01:24:35,559 Speaker 11: watching that long time here. 1942 01:24:36,439 --> 01:24:39,040 Speaker 9: He really he really does, you know, And honestly it 1943 01:24:39,120 --> 01:24:42,360 Speaker 9: surprises me a little bit because Titans have had some 1944 01:24:42,760 --> 01:24:45,639 Speaker 9: tough luck over the years and kind of adding wide 1945 01:24:45,680 --> 01:24:48,760 Speaker 9: receiver veteran wide receivers who were kind of on that 1946 01:24:48,920 --> 01:24:51,320 Speaker 9: line you know, maybe are they are they you know, 1947 01:24:51,439 --> 01:24:53,400 Speaker 9: too old or are they going to be real productive? 1948 01:24:53,439 --> 01:24:56,040 Speaker 9: You know Julio Jones. You know that they traded for 1949 01:24:56,120 --> 01:24:59,720 Speaker 9: Julio Jones here and there was much interest and excitement 1950 01:25:00,080 --> 01:25:02,160 Speaker 9: that just didn't go over very well. And to a 1951 01:25:02,200 --> 01:25:04,719 Speaker 9: lesser degree, you know, a guy like Robert Woods who's 1952 01:25:04,760 --> 01:25:07,519 Speaker 9: now with the with the Texans, you know, they brought 1953 01:25:07,600 --> 01:25:09,720 Speaker 9: him in hoping for a little bit more, you know, 1954 01:25:09,760 --> 01:25:11,479 Speaker 9: than they got from him, and that that didn't work 1955 01:25:11,479 --> 01:25:14,400 Speaker 9: out either. But yeah, Hopkins has has been the guy 1956 01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:17,679 Speaker 9: and it's interesting that you use the phrase hasn't hasn't 1957 01:25:17,680 --> 01:25:20,519 Speaker 9: missed a step. He you know, he has certainly never 1958 01:25:20,600 --> 01:25:22,960 Speaker 9: been really in his career the fastest guy. It's not 1959 01:25:23,040 --> 01:25:26,479 Speaker 9: like a track star who's who's winning sprints down the field. 1960 01:25:26,640 --> 01:25:29,439 Speaker 9: What what he has always been and continues to be 1961 01:25:29,560 --> 01:25:31,680 Speaker 9: this year, is the is the guy who can win 1962 01:25:31,760 --> 01:25:35,400 Speaker 9: those contested catches, who can use those giant hands and 1963 01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:38,800 Speaker 9: that and that good catch radius, and he has been 1964 01:25:39,040 --> 01:25:42,800 Speaker 9: a godsend, I think for Will Levis. I ran the 1965 01:25:42,880 --> 01:25:47,080 Speaker 9: numbers yesterday and Will Levis's seven starts, he's targeted DeAndre 1966 01:25:47,160 --> 01:25:51,519 Speaker 9: Hopkins sixty times, only completed thirty of them, which you 1967 01:25:51,560 --> 01:25:53,560 Speaker 9: know is not great, but it kind of gives you 1968 01:25:53,560 --> 01:25:56,240 Speaker 9: an idea of just how much he is relying on 1969 01:25:56,320 --> 01:25:59,280 Speaker 9: him and those receptions five hundred and twenty two yards, 1970 01:25:59,320 --> 01:26:02,959 Speaker 9: so he's been average in seventeen yards catch with Levis 1971 01:26:03,120 --> 01:26:05,840 Speaker 9: and six touchdowns in that seven game span also, so 1972 01:26:06,320 --> 01:26:09,160 Speaker 9: it's clear there's a real chemistry, a real good connection 1973 01:26:09,240 --> 01:26:12,960 Speaker 9: with those two right away. And really, Hopkins's numbers to 1974 01:26:12,960 --> 01:26:15,920 Speaker 9: me are even more impressive because there really aren't any 1975 01:26:15,960 --> 01:26:19,880 Speaker 9: other threats significant threats right now in the Titans passing game. 1976 01:26:19,920 --> 01:26:22,599 Speaker 9: You know, they hoped for a lot from Treylon Burks, 1977 01:26:22,640 --> 01:26:25,680 Speaker 9: the twenty twenty two first round draft pick, but we 1978 01:26:25,760 --> 01:26:27,840 Speaker 9: really haven't seen it so far. In fact, he's only 1979 01:26:27,840 --> 01:26:30,400 Speaker 9: had one catch in the last two games since coming 1980 01:26:30,439 --> 01:26:33,240 Speaker 9: back to my concussion, So you know, DeAndre Hopkins is 1981 01:26:33,240 --> 01:26:35,720 Speaker 9: doing this despite the fact that that all the defenses, Well, 1982 01:26:35,840 --> 01:26:37,919 Speaker 9: the ball is going to DeAndre Hopkins. 1983 01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:41,479 Speaker 11: Nashville Post John Glennon John sounds familiar. I could say 1984 01:26:41,479 --> 01:26:44,280 Speaker 11: that about twenty fourteen when he was catching passes from 1985 01:26:44,479 --> 01:26:47,680 Speaker 11: Fitzpatrick and Mallett and TJ. Yates and case Keenum and 1986 01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:49,680 Speaker 11: you know, the list goes on and on. It's it 1987 01:26:49,760 --> 01:26:52,680 Speaker 11: just seems very familiar seeing him do that Monday night 1988 01:26:52,800 --> 01:26:55,120 Speaker 11: and know what the situation is and what the situation 1989 01:26:55,280 --> 01:26:58,639 Speaker 11: was here for chunks of his periods in Houston, Derrick 1990 01:26:58,680 --> 01:27:05,759 Speaker 11: Henry has owned the Houston Texans. This Houston Texans run defense, however, 1991 01:27:06,280 --> 01:27:10,080 Speaker 11: is much much better than it's been. Really, gotta go 1992 01:27:10,080 --> 01:27:12,639 Speaker 11: back to about twenty eighteen to see a run defense 1993 01:27:12,680 --> 01:27:16,400 Speaker 11: from the Texans. It's this solid. I wonder what we 1994 01:27:16,439 --> 01:27:20,200 Speaker 11: see Sunday. You never take Derrick Henry for granted, certainly, 1995 01:27:20,280 --> 01:27:23,080 Speaker 11: but it's a nice compliment to have when you do 1996 01:27:23,200 --> 01:27:25,200 Speaker 11: have a DeAndre Hopkins. You talk about a lack of 1997 01:27:25,479 --> 01:27:28,439 Speaker 11: receiving threats opposite him, but now you have Dereck Henry 1998 01:27:28,479 --> 01:27:32,440 Speaker 11: and you get spears. My goodness, the rookie spears. What compliment? 1999 01:27:32,479 --> 01:27:34,519 Speaker 11: That run game looks like I could get krack and 2000 01:27:34,560 --> 01:27:35,840 Speaker 11: what have you? Seen from them this year. 2001 01:27:36,720 --> 01:27:38,800 Speaker 9: Yeah, it's been I would say it's been up and down. 2002 01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:41,519 Speaker 9: And you always wonder in the run game, you know, 2003 01:27:42,040 --> 01:27:44,479 Speaker 9: is it the running backs or is it the offensive line? 2004 01:27:44,560 --> 01:27:47,360 Speaker 9: And I tend to think it's a little bit more 2005 01:27:47,720 --> 01:27:51,600 Speaker 9: offensive line related. You know, they've got some very inexperienced 2006 01:27:51,600 --> 01:27:54,800 Speaker 9: players up there. You know, last few games that they're 2007 01:27:54,840 --> 01:27:58,120 Speaker 9: starting left tackle is the sixth round rookie, you know, 2008 01:27:58,120 --> 01:27:59,760 Speaker 9: a draft pick who that that was certainly not the 2009 01:27:59,760 --> 01:28:03,000 Speaker 9: play this year. They're really they're they're missing the two 2010 01:28:03,040 --> 01:28:05,719 Speaker 9: guys who they thought would be their starting tackles right now. 2011 01:28:06,240 --> 01:28:09,280 Speaker 9: So it's been a tough goal at times in the 2012 01:28:09,320 --> 01:28:12,639 Speaker 9: in the running game, but certainly we've seen flashes of 2013 01:28:12,640 --> 01:28:14,680 Speaker 9: that of that old Derrick Henry. And you know, I 2014 01:28:14,680 --> 01:28:17,760 Speaker 9: think he's got three games over one hundred this year 2015 01:28:17,800 --> 01:28:20,920 Speaker 9: and he's still in the top five or so in 2016 01:28:20,920 --> 01:28:23,479 Speaker 9: in rushing for for the NFL. And that's you know, 2017 01:28:23,680 --> 01:28:26,400 Speaker 9: it's funny that Derrick Henry has raised the bar so 2018 01:28:26,600 --> 01:28:28,680 Speaker 9: high that you know, you look at a season like 2019 01:28:28,680 --> 01:28:30,120 Speaker 9: this and you're like a little bit of a down 2020 01:28:30,200 --> 01:28:32,160 Speaker 9: year for Derrick Henry and he's still going to go 2021 01:28:32,200 --> 01:28:34,000 Speaker 9: over at the house and yards and he's still going 2022 01:28:34,040 --> 01:28:36,320 Speaker 9: to wind up as one of the league's top rushers. 2023 01:28:36,360 --> 01:28:40,680 Speaker 9: But with the guy you've mentioned, ta j Spears very interesting. 2024 01:28:41,800 --> 01:28:44,920 Speaker 9: You know, I think people are going to be watching 2025 01:28:44,960 --> 01:28:49,000 Speaker 9: this this rookie emerge over the next few years. Is 2026 01:28:49,040 --> 01:28:52,360 Speaker 9: a very good player, not only as a as a 2027 01:28:52,439 --> 01:28:54,840 Speaker 9: running back, which I think he's he's very good. He's 2028 01:28:54,880 --> 01:28:58,519 Speaker 9: got he's got good speed, he's shifty, but as a 2029 01:28:58,520 --> 01:29:01,760 Speaker 9: as a passing threat as well, and we saw that 2030 01:29:01,840 --> 01:29:03,679 Speaker 9: in the Monday night game. I think he had six 2031 01:29:03,760 --> 01:29:07,559 Speaker 9: catches raty nine yards and making some catches that running 2032 01:29:07,600 --> 01:29:10,000 Speaker 9: backs don't usually do. You know, there was a thirty 2033 01:29:10,080 --> 01:29:13,679 Speaker 9: yard downfield shot and tested catch that he came down with. 2034 01:29:13,920 --> 01:29:16,240 Speaker 9: I actually fumbled it out of bounds, but still set 2035 01:29:16,280 --> 01:29:19,879 Speaker 9: up a Titan score that way. He is an excellent 2036 01:29:20,000 --> 01:29:24,040 Speaker 9: compliment to Derrick Henry. You wonder maybe, you know, going forward, 2037 01:29:24,080 --> 01:29:26,600 Speaker 9: this is last year of Derrick Henry's contract. You know, 2038 01:29:26,680 --> 01:29:30,879 Speaker 9: maybe Taja Spears becomes the guy next year. But overall 2039 01:29:30,920 --> 01:29:34,960 Speaker 9: times running game hasn't been what we've seen in previous years. 2040 01:29:35,160 --> 01:29:38,120 Speaker 9: But the compliment is is a very effective one, and 2041 01:29:38,840 --> 01:29:40,519 Speaker 9: Spears is certainly a real weapon. 2042 01:29:40,600 --> 01:29:43,200 Speaker 11: We got the Nashville Post John Glennon talking with us 2043 01:29:43,240 --> 01:29:46,519 Speaker 11: about the Titans matchup and over on the defensive side, 2044 01:29:46,720 --> 01:29:48,400 Speaker 11: what you got to tell you about Jeffrey Simmons. Is 2045 01:29:48,439 --> 01:29:52,519 Speaker 11: there any chance the interior defender lines up and plays 2046 01:29:52,520 --> 01:29:53,679 Speaker 11: against the Texans on Sunday? 2047 01:29:53,720 --> 01:29:54,960 Speaker 13: Or is he still a week or so away? 2048 01:29:55,920 --> 01:29:58,960 Speaker 9: My guess is it probably still a week or so away. 2049 01:29:59,080 --> 01:30:01,519 Speaker 9: I think, you know, initially when he was hurt, you know, 2050 01:30:01,560 --> 01:30:03,719 Speaker 9: Mike Frabel said he might miss a couple of weeks. 2051 01:30:04,120 --> 01:30:06,479 Speaker 9: He's only missed one so far. I don't he didn't 2052 01:30:06,520 --> 01:30:10,519 Speaker 9: practice yesterday, and I would think it's a little bit 2053 01:30:10,600 --> 01:30:14,240 Speaker 9: more time, you know, for for Jeffrey Simmons, which is 2054 01:30:14,280 --> 01:30:17,280 Speaker 9: certainly a big loss. And then they also put starting 2055 01:30:17,360 --> 01:30:21,160 Speaker 9: quarterback Christian Fulton on on IR yesterday, so so he's 2056 01:30:21,200 --> 01:30:24,080 Speaker 9: probably done for the season. But it was it was 2057 01:30:24,120 --> 01:30:28,040 Speaker 9: interesting to see, even minus to those players against Miami. 2058 01:30:28,600 --> 01:30:31,559 Speaker 9: You know, a defense that hasn't necessarily been great this 2059 01:30:31,680 --> 01:30:34,280 Speaker 9: year came up with two huge steps there in the 2060 01:30:34,280 --> 01:30:36,960 Speaker 9: fourth quarter, you know, to get the ball back for 2061 01:30:37,040 --> 01:30:39,439 Speaker 9: the winning drive and then to shut the down shut 2062 01:30:39,520 --> 01:30:41,880 Speaker 9: down the Dolphins when all they needed was a field 2063 01:30:41,880 --> 01:30:44,920 Speaker 9: goal to win the game. You know and you saw. 2064 01:30:44,960 --> 01:30:48,439 Speaker 9: I think Harold Landry is certainly a good name to 2065 01:30:48,479 --> 01:30:51,639 Speaker 9: point out here. You know, he missed all of last 2066 01:30:51,720 --> 01:30:54,920 Speaker 9: year with the a C L and so maybe the 2067 01:30:54,960 --> 01:30:56,880 Speaker 9: first half of this year was it was a little 2068 01:30:56,880 --> 01:30:59,000 Speaker 9: bit of rust and a little bit of getting his 2069 01:30:59,080 --> 01:31:01,879 Speaker 9: timing back and so forth. But he's come on strong. 2070 01:31:02,479 --> 01:31:04,639 Speaker 9: He was the AFC Play Defensive Player of the Week 2071 01:31:04,680 --> 01:31:09,160 Speaker 9: this week, had three sacks in the fourth quarter against Miami, 2072 01:31:09,240 --> 01:31:12,080 Speaker 9: five tackles overall as well. So he's a he's a 2073 01:31:12,200 --> 01:31:14,920 Speaker 9: name to watch. And the pass rush in general has 2074 01:31:14,960 --> 01:31:18,240 Speaker 9: been much better the last few games as opposed to 2075 01:31:18,280 --> 01:31:19,840 Speaker 9: what it was, you know, sort of in the middle 2076 01:31:19,880 --> 01:31:21,280 Speaker 9: and an early portion of the season. 2077 01:31:21,640 --> 01:31:23,000 Speaker 11: Yeah, John, I was going to say, do you think 2078 01:31:23,000 --> 01:31:26,040 Speaker 11: this is an ascending team? I know the record is 2079 01:31:26,080 --> 01:31:28,080 Speaker 11: what it is, but do you think this team is 2080 01:31:28,160 --> 01:31:31,200 Speaker 11: kind of gearing up for next year? I don't want 2081 01:31:31,200 --> 01:31:33,640 Speaker 11: to close the book on any season, but where do 2082 01:31:33,680 --> 01:31:35,559 Speaker 11: you see this this Titan squad headed? 2083 01:31:36,800 --> 01:31:39,200 Speaker 9: That is a very good question, and that is one 2084 01:31:39,200 --> 01:31:42,400 Speaker 9: that has been asked, you know, many times here uh 2085 01:31:42,520 --> 01:31:46,639 Speaker 9: in Nashville, because this year they you know, they really 2086 01:31:46,720 --> 01:31:48,720 Speaker 9: didn't you know, there was a lot of thought that 2087 01:31:48,760 --> 01:31:51,360 Speaker 9: maybe at the trade deadline that they might go all 2088 01:31:51,439 --> 01:31:54,280 Speaker 9: in for for sort of a rebuild, you know, a 2089 01:31:54,320 --> 01:31:56,600 Speaker 9: youth movement, you know, pick up more draft picks. And 2090 01:31:56,760 --> 01:31:59,320 Speaker 9: especially so you know, when they traded Kevin Bayer, you know, 2091 01:31:59,360 --> 01:32:02,400 Speaker 9: a cornerstone on the franchise. You know, just before the 2092 01:32:02,439 --> 01:32:04,519 Speaker 9: trade deadline, there is the thought that, Okay, that's the 2093 01:32:04,600 --> 01:32:10,559 Speaker 9: first domino, that's the first block to go. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 2094 01:32:10,640 --> 01:32:13,280 Speaker 9: And but then it stopped. You know, there was thought 2095 01:32:13,320 --> 01:32:15,160 Speaker 9: that hey, you know, maybe even a Dereck Henry you 2096 01:32:15,200 --> 01:32:19,000 Speaker 9: know again in the last year as contractor, or Deniko Artry, 2097 01:32:19,280 --> 01:32:22,280 Speaker 9: same sort of situation. And and even you know, Ryan 2098 01:32:22,320 --> 01:32:25,439 Speaker 9: Tannehill had he not gotten hurt just before that, He's 2099 01:32:25,479 --> 01:32:27,080 Speaker 9: in the last year of his contract. So there was 2100 01:32:27,120 --> 01:32:30,160 Speaker 9: a lot of thought that, hey, it's time to start rebuilding, 2101 01:32:30,280 --> 01:32:33,120 Speaker 9: pick up capital, you know, let's make some more trades. 2102 01:32:33,160 --> 01:32:36,640 Speaker 9: But but it stopped right there. So I think that 2103 01:32:36,680 --> 01:32:39,639 Speaker 9: there's still a lot of spots on this Titans team 2104 01:32:39,720 --> 01:32:43,960 Speaker 9: that need retooling. You know, I think they're more than 2105 01:32:44,080 --> 01:32:46,479 Speaker 9: one or two players away to kind of get back 2106 01:32:46,520 --> 01:32:49,360 Speaker 9: to what they were used to over you know, Mike 2107 01:32:49,400 --> 01:32:53,240 Speaker 9: Frable's first half decade or so, so it's hard to 2108 01:32:53,280 --> 01:32:55,880 Speaker 9: say whether whether it's sending or sort of you know, 2109 01:32:55,960 --> 01:32:58,519 Speaker 9: in in neutral right now. I think there's still some 2110 01:32:58,560 --> 01:32:59,759 Speaker 9: more to go for this team. 2111 01:33:00,000 --> 01:33:03,320 Speaker 11: It's an interesting matchup because, like we said at the outset, 2112 01:33:03,439 --> 01:33:06,679 Speaker 11: this is a banged up Texans team, banged up Titans team. 2113 01:33:06,680 --> 01:33:09,320 Speaker 11: There no Jeffrey Simmons. I mean that guy we talked about, 2114 01:33:09,360 --> 01:33:12,040 Speaker 11: what a terror Derrick Henry is on the offensive side. 2115 01:33:12,080 --> 01:33:14,920 Speaker 11: He's every bit the equal over there, and it makes 2116 01:33:14,960 --> 01:33:17,280 Speaker 11: things a little easier at least on the interior for 2117 01:33:17,800 --> 01:33:20,000 Speaker 11: you know, it's kind of been a shaky offensive line there, 2118 01:33:20,800 --> 01:33:23,360 Speaker 11: guard set of guard for the Texans this year. All right, 2119 01:33:23,439 --> 01:33:26,599 Speaker 11: last thing, what do you guys make of it locally there? 2120 01:33:27,120 --> 01:33:29,760 Speaker 11: The Oilers uniforms, it's a big deal back here. But 2121 01:33:29,800 --> 01:33:30,960 Speaker 11: what do you guys think about it? 2122 01:33:32,600 --> 01:33:37,839 Speaker 9: I think the I think the fans around here really enjoy, 2123 01:33:38,439 --> 01:33:41,680 Speaker 9: you know, the the throwbacks that the uniforms, that kind 2124 01:33:41,720 --> 01:33:44,919 Speaker 9: of thing, simply because I mean it's you know, everyone 2125 01:33:45,360 --> 01:33:47,800 Speaker 9: pretty much feels the same about those uniforms. They were great. 2126 01:33:48,360 --> 01:33:52,639 Speaker 9: You know, there's a classic classic look and I don't 2127 01:33:52,720 --> 01:33:55,320 Speaker 9: you know, I don't think there's quite the feeling in 2128 01:33:55,400 --> 01:33:58,920 Speaker 9: the fans here of hey, let's rub it in in 2129 01:33:58,960 --> 01:34:03,400 Speaker 9: Houston's face, you know, as understandably Houston fans would would 2130 01:34:03,400 --> 01:34:08,160 Speaker 9: feel that way, you know, and of course you probably 2131 01:34:08,200 --> 01:34:10,719 Speaker 9: saw too that they're going to induct Billy White Shoes 2132 01:34:10,760 --> 01:34:13,200 Speaker 9: Johnson into the into the team's ring of honor there 2133 01:34:13,200 --> 01:34:15,560 Speaker 9: at halftime. It almost seems like, let's do it a 2134 01:34:15,600 --> 01:34:19,559 Speaker 9: little bit more here. But you know, I think that 2135 01:34:19,600 --> 01:34:24,160 Speaker 9: the Titans enjoy Titans fans kind of enjoy the throwback look, 2136 01:34:24,520 --> 01:34:27,559 Speaker 9: but they don't have the deep seated feelings of, yeah, 2137 01:34:27,640 --> 01:34:30,559 Speaker 9: let's let's give it to them simply because you know 2138 01:34:30,640 --> 01:34:34,360 Speaker 9: the team. You know that they only know the Titans here. 2139 01:34:34,720 --> 01:34:37,280 Speaker 9: It was not as as big a point with the 2140 01:34:37,600 --> 01:34:39,640 Speaker 9: with the fans. But certainly we all know where the 2141 01:34:39,680 --> 01:34:43,040 Speaker 9: owner comes from and and her history as well, and 2142 01:34:43,360 --> 01:34:46,280 Speaker 9: you know, maybe her feelings towards at least the former 2143 01:34:46,640 --> 01:34:51,599 Speaker 9: administrations uh in Houston. So I think that's generally where 2144 01:34:51,600 --> 01:34:54,840 Speaker 9: it stands or where it comes from. But yeah, I 2145 01:34:54,840 --> 01:34:58,400 Speaker 9: think certainly the Titans fans love the whole, uh, you know, 2146 01:34:58,479 --> 01:34:59,320 Speaker 9: the look of things. 2147 01:34:59,320 --> 01:35:02,240 Speaker 2: Anyway, Boil, there's a lot there from John Glennon, We 2148 01:35:02,280 --> 01:35:04,080 Speaker 2: thank you for being on a show.
