Texans game day 3 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,960 Speaker 1: is every day. Yeah, nice ball, nice ball, five nights 4 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:18,640 Speaker 1: a week. They hits keep on coming. Sack wows, We're 5 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 1: gonna down our quarterback. No, it's Texans All xays. Welcome 6 00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:28,000 Speaker 1: into Texans All Access. On a Tuesday, not your normal 7 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 1: day off. The players are back in the building. It's 8 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: a short week for the Houston Texans as they prepare 9 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 1: for aday Thursday night primetime game against the two and 10 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:40,559 Speaker 1: oh Carolina Panthers at Energy Stadium. I welcome back, Mark vanderber. 11 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:42,919 Speaker 1: We just finished up an hour with cecil shorts and 12 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,480 Speaker 1: you know what, here we go. Short week. The week 13 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,520 Speaker 1: is crazy, but Thursday night football, We've got so much 14 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 1: to get to as far as news and stories and 15 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,639 Speaker 1: the injuries from Sunday's game. We'll unpack all of it. 16 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 1: But first, Mark, you've got to be excited. First primetime 17 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,280 Speaker 1: game of twenty twenty one. I'm super fired up for it. 18 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: You know, I always am fired up for every game, 19 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 1: and here we are. I heard Sean and Seth talking 20 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: about it this way. I compared it a little bit 21 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,679 Speaker 1: to the twenty seventeen week to Thursday night win. You 22 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,959 Speaker 1: lost so many players at over twenty players and the 23 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 1: injury report, and you went to Cincinnati and won with 24 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: a rookie quarterback. These guys came up with a better comparison, 25 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: although not the Texans side of things. It was the 26 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: Patriots who started third round pick rookie quarterback Jacobe Brissette 27 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: against the Texans in Week three, which this is right, 28 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: and it was a short weekday. We're the home team. 29 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: Texans were two and oh going in. Brock Oswilder was 30 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: quarterbacking looking good after a hard fought win against Kansas City. 31 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 1: That year had some really nice wins and that was 32 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 1: one of them. Detroit was a pretty good team that year. 33 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 1: That was one of their good years. And the Texans 34 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: beat them at home as well. But the Texas going 35 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: to New England and get buzz sad by the Patriots 36 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 1: totally unexpected. They went in as favorites and they compared 37 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: it to that, And I like that because I want 38 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,080 Speaker 1: the same outcome for the home team to win, and 39 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: that's what the Patriots were that night with the ricky quarterbacks. 40 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: So I'm fired up to see how they put this 41 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,079 Speaker 1: one together. dB rookie quarterback Jacobe Burssetta. I feel like 42 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: he's been in the league so many years. Then he 43 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: went to Indy. Now he's the backup with the Dolphins. 44 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 1: He's probably gonna play again this weekend, But that just 45 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: seems like forever ago. I do like that comparison better. 46 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 1: I like it better because you don't want the away 47 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 1: team to come in on the short weekend when like 48 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:25,119 Speaker 1: the way we did when the Texans played Cincinnati, Well, 49 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: the Bengals were just shocked because they were they were 50 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: off to a great start that year. Yeah, and a 51 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: Cecil was very well. He confirmed what we thought, which 52 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: is the road team is at such a disadvantage on 53 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 1: a Thursday night travel week, right you where you travel 54 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: on Wednesday, you don't have the full week of prep 55 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: to begin with, and Wednesday has spent a good chunk 56 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 1: of it has spent traveling. And that Week three game 57 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 1: in twenty sixteenth of the Texans, as you recall, was 58 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: horrible as far as travel. Landed in Providence, had to 59 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: go up to Boston and the traffic took about an 60 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 1: hour hour and a half to get to the hotel, 61 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,239 Speaker 1: which is so unusual in the league. Look, woe is me. 62 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: These are luxury problems. But these teams are so used 63 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 1: to their routines. They're creatures of habit. And getting to 64 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: the stadium itself took about an hour or and a 65 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: half or at whatever it was. It was ridiculous for 66 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: an NFL travel schedule from the hotel to the stadium. 67 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: And I think it just took a little something out. 68 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: When you take a little something off what's already a 69 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 1: difficult week, something off your team, a little edge or whatever. 70 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 1: I think it's costly and it definitely costs the Texans 71 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: that night. So we'll see how it plays out. With 72 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: the Panthers traveling here short week. They're fat and happy, 73 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: you know my expression there, they're two and oh, let's 74 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: see what happens. You know. I cecil the story that 75 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: is still sitting with me about how he got into 76 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 1: a really bad car accident a few years ago, and 77 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: he said he woke up the next day and he 78 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: felt like he had just played an NFL game, And 79 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: he said, as a white and then he's like, I'm 80 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 1: a wide receiver. Just imagine how the rest of the 81 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: guys feel. Oh, line, D line, the running backs and 82 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: you know, you hear the comparison all the time, but 83 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: that really hit it home for me when an NFL 84 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: player gets them a car accidents like, oh, this reminds 85 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 1: me of one I used to play ball game, you know, 86 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: on a short week. To think that, you know, and 87 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 1: I know it's early in the season. I think the 88 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: Thursday night games later in the season must be really 89 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 1: horrifically terrible compared to Week two. I mean a week three, 90 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 1: you know, I know, it's it's still a game week. 91 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: They've still had a game on Sunday to recover from 92 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 1: Sunday's game at Cleveland was so physical and there were 93 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: just so many injuries. It was it was just one 94 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: of those games. It was like that twenty seventeen Week 95 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 1: one game against Jacksonville where the Texans had so many 96 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: players hurt. It was just one of those games. Interesting 97 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: that you compared it to that one, and you know, 98 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: the Texans were hanging in this one a lot better 99 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 1: than that one. But it's true, It's just one of 100 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: those weird games where I felt like we were taking 101 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: a commercial time out because of an injury time out 102 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 1: every other play. You know, it's a miracle when you 103 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: got through a play and oh, nobody needs to be 104 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 1: looked at by the medical staff after this play. Terrific. 105 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 1: Let's snap the ball again quickly before somebody goes down. 106 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: And I don't mean to make light of it, but 107 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: that's the way it felt. And I think for both teams, 108 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: because the Cleveland Browns have their problems too. But dp 109 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: all that being said, that was still such a winnable game. 110 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: You were right there, you're down three in the fourth quarter. 111 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: If you make a stop. With everything that's gone wrong 112 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,919 Speaker 1: during the day, if you make one stop in the 113 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: fourth quarter, you get the ball back with a chance 114 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: to take the lead. Now I'm not saying you take 115 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 1: the lead, but a chance to tie or take the lead. Man, 116 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: that would have been nice to see them get done. 117 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 1: And I think this game speaks to what David Culley 118 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: has been telling them all along. You make the mistakes, 119 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: you pay the price the muff put in the beginning. Obviously, 120 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: the interception, I'm not going to kill Davis Mills for that. 121 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: It wasn't even a horrible pick. It was just a 122 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: really good play by the defender. But it was a 123 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,039 Speaker 1: pick in your own end and you held to a 124 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: field goal. But that's ten points off turnovers for the 125 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns. The first one would have at least been three. 126 00:05:58,160 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: You figure because they had the ball at the thirty 127 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 1: five yard line. You can't do that. This team cannot 128 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 1: do that. Any team cannot do that. Make those mistakes 129 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 1: and expect to win. Now, having said that, they had 130 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: their chances, they just couldn't pull it out, and let's 131 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 1: see if they can do better against the Panthers. I 132 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: felt really encouraged by the fact that even after that 133 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 1: muffed punt, the Texans came back and the defense, you know, 134 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: the defense, the offense performed. You know, they got the 135 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: back to back turnovers, you know they didn't they only 136 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: converted one of them into a touchdown. But I feel 137 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 1: like they bounced back pretty well. Sometimes when a game 138 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 1: starts like that, it just starts to unravel and you 139 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: just think, Okay, this is not their day. But they 140 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: were in it till halftime, and Tyrod Taylor was playing 141 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: phenomenally until he got hurt. I just that's still it's 142 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: gutting to watch. I think even nationally there were a 143 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: lot of people saying that, you know, he's hard not 144 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: to root for, and everything has happened in his past. 145 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 1: Like he was just playing so well. He'd given so 146 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: many people hope for this team, and in a year 147 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: where a lot of people didn't really think much of 148 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: this Texans squad, but he was just playing so well. So, 149 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 1: you know, I hope this is see him back out soon. 150 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: I know we're gonna get into it with some quick 151 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: hits with the latest on him, But he was just 152 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: I mean, the only incompletion he had was the last one. 153 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: He was ten of eleven. He might have. I feel 154 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: like at one point he had another one, but then 155 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: statistically they took it away. He was ten of eleven, 156 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: and he just looked so crisp, so sharp. I hope 157 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: that Davis Mills when he comes out, you know a 158 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: little bit of that Tyrod Taylor calmness is rubbed off 159 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 1: on him. It seemed like it did in Cleveland. But 160 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: I hope just being around him and learning from him, 161 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: is it sort of rubbed off him. I think that's 162 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 1: he's probably a great guy to learn behind. Well. I'm 163 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: glad that Davis had that experience, right, If nothing else, 164 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: he had the experience of playing in a hostile environment, 165 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: so he got his feet wet in a regular season scenario. 166 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: It's not like the last time he threw the ball 167 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: was against Tampa Bay in the preseason. He played on Sunday. 168 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: Now he's at home where they will be quiet on 169 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: offense for him. The Panthers fans aren't going to jam 170 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: this stadium. Okay, it's not the Steelers or the Packers 171 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: or one of those teams that travels a lot. There'll 172 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: be some, but it's not going to be crazy. It'll 173 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: be nice and quiet. When he's on offense, he can 174 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 1: operate and he's gonna need that. He's gonna need every 175 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: second he gets on the play clock in order to 176 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: be organized. Because he is super organized, knows the offense, 177 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: He gets them in and out of the huddle. And 178 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: look that sounds so cliche, he gets them in and 179 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: out of the huddle. Really is that big a deal? 180 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 1: It kind of is to get the play delivered properly, 181 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: the operation of it all, and then during the play itself, 182 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: being able to process quickly. That's what we need to 183 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: see and hopefully he can get it done. Tim Kelly's 184 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: getting tons of praise for his work so far through 185 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: two games with the Houston Texans. Taylor you mentioned him 186 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: fifth in the league in quarterback rating, fifth in quarterback rating, 187 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: and you know he's on the shelf for a while, 188 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 1: but we'll see what happens here. But that was a 189 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 1: great start for him, and you hope he can continue 190 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 1: the season at some point soon. And Mills, he's got 191 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 1: to just find a way, find a way to make 192 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 1: some plays. And as long as you can run the 193 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: ball and continue to do what you've been doing on defense. 194 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: The good things you've been doing, not the fourth quarter 195 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: where you gave up that long drive, but the good 196 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: things you've been doing, you gotta show to win this 197 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: game on Thursday. All right, Well, let's get into some 198 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 1: of our quick hits for the week and for the day. 199 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: To Rod Taylor and Nique Collins placed on ir Today, 200 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: the Texans signed tight end Anthony i'll claire to the 201 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: active roster from the practice squad, and a corresponding move, 202 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: they also signed linebacker Hardy Nickerson, who was here in 203 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: the offseason in and training camp, to the practice squad. 204 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: So Davis Mills officially named the starting quarterback for Thursday's 205 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 1: game by head coach David Mulley. That David Culley, that 206 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: happened just this morning because Tyrod Taylor's ruled out. He 207 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 1: had the MRI yesterday so didn't really get a full 208 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: report on what the MRI revealed, but just that he'll 209 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: be out and there's no official timetable on his return, 210 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: but now we know three weeks at least because with 211 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: the new IR rules, he'll have to miss three games. 212 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: So it's I mean, you hear I R and you 213 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: get you just think, oh, that just released teams. But 214 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: it's not the same IR as it used to be. 215 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 1: So at least he'll be out, he'll be up for 216 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: three games and then he could come back hopefully that's 217 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: the case. That's really the best case scenario right now. 218 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,199 Speaker 1: I love these new IR rules. I always reached fell 219 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: had it. Yeah, I do, because you know it used 220 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: to be like IR see you next year, That's what 221 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: it was, right, And you couldn't remember when you couldn't 222 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: even bring players back. That only happened a few years ago. 223 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 1: You could bring one player back, you had to designate 224 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: him for return, and then they made it two players, right, 225 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: and then they made it you could bring him back, 226 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,679 Speaker 1: but you didn't have to designate. And now it's like 227 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: with COVID they realize that you're gonna have to the 228 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: roster is constantly moving right active to inactive. I think 229 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: they did it this way, and it's a great idea 230 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: because they figured, well, you might miss six, seven, eight 231 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 1: nine players going into a game because of some kind 232 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 1: of COVID outbreak, and you need to pull up people 233 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: from you from your practice squad quickly. You have that 234 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 1: flexibility now and you can protect certain players in your 235 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: practice squad. It all plays out very well. So look, 236 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 1: we'll see how they put together the team for Thursday night, 237 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 1: but we'll miss Trod for however many weeks it's going 238 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 1: to be. Nico Collins is another one that's sad because 239 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: he's a rookie. But man, he had that one catch 240 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 1: against Cleveland and he thought, all right, at any moment, 241 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: he's really going to start to blossom. And it could 242 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,719 Speaker 1: have been that day. Imagine if Tarad and Nico and 243 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: Amndola all stay healthy, what would the day be like 244 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: at the end of the day had that happened. Now 245 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: it didn't happen. It's the NFL. People get hurt, so 246 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 1: they got to live with it. But it's hard to swallow. 247 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,959 Speaker 1: I just don't want this to be one of those 248 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: years like twenty seventeen where you just get injury after 249 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 1: injury after injury. It's got to stop right now, please. Yeah. 250 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: And as a backup to Davis Mills, Jeff Driskell, who's 251 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: on the practice squad as the other quarterback. The other 252 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: quarterback in Deshaun Watson obviously not going to practice, not 253 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: going to be a factor in Thursday's game, will be inactive. 254 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: I feel like that's something that is on national news, 255 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: not really not really big headlines here in Houston. If 256 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: you've been following the team, you know he's not been practicing. 257 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: He's been inactive for every game. So that's not going 258 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: to change. Nothing changes there. But you mentioned that Nico 259 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 1: Collins other injury updates. Anthony expected to make his Texans 260 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: debut because obviously Nicole Collins is out in Danny Amn 261 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 1: Doola not expected to play on Thursday. Tim Kelly is 262 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 1: expecting Anthony Miller to have a good game. He described 263 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 1: him as fast, explosive, how he plays with an edge. 264 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: Looking forward to seeing what Anthony Miller does in this offense. 265 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 1: AM and Dola not on IR is a little bit 266 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 1: of a headline, you know. I don't know if I 267 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: could do this that way on the cover of the chronicle, 268 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 1: you know, Am and Dola, not on IR. But it's 269 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 1: good news because maybe next week, maybe the week after, 270 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: doesn't have to be three weeks. So that's great stuff. 271 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: I want to see Anthony Miller. We've talked about him 272 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: ever since he arrived at training camp. Looks athletic, looked 273 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: really really spry those first couple of practices in training camp, 274 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: and he thought this guy could be a real factor 275 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: on this team. But slowed down injuries, whatever, And we'll 276 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,079 Speaker 1: see what he could contribute. On Thursday night, he's out 277 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: there practicing. Look, practice this week is not exactly practice. 278 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 1: We discussed that with Cecil, more like walkthrough type stuff. 279 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: But at least you get the dress rehearsal of it all. 280 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: If you're Davis Mills, that guy's supposed to be over there, 281 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,199 Speaker 1: throw a ham. That guy's supposed to be over there. 282 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 1: Plus they got to give him whatever they think Carolina 283 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,680 Speaker 1: is going to do to him, because Carolina has this 284 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 1: creative defense that's fast, hard to deal with. You're a rookie. 285 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 1: At least you're at home. We'll see how it goes. Yeah, 286 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: and you know as far as Anthony Miller right. I 287 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 1: was talking to John Harris about him in training camp 288 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: because a lot of the dbs were talking about how 289 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 1: he's really hard to cover, really shifty, really fast, And 290 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: I asked, Johnny, is he strictly a slot receiver guy, 291 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: because the way that you know, he was described, it 292 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: seemed like there was more he could do it. And 293 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: Johnny seemed to think that, you know, he can line 294 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:37,679 Speaker 1: up in a lot of different plays, a lot of 295 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: different places, and he can bring more than just you know, 296 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 1: being a slot receiver to this offense. I think he 297 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,199 Speaker 1: could be an X factor if he can get things going. 298 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: I want to say he was a healthy scratch for 299 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: the first two weeks because he was dealing with the 300 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,679 Speaker 1: shoulder in try Who knows he was practicing. Maybe they 301 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: just didn't feel like he was ready. He had a 302 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: sort of catch up to the offense, and then Danny 303 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 1: Amandula comes in and he sort of picks it up 304 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 1: right away. So maybe it was a little bit of 305 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 1: both factors. But maybe he's hungry now to get in. 306 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: You know, he was trained to hear from the bears. 307 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 1: He's got something to prove as well, so it would 308 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: be great if he could really show out and have 309 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 1: a big game on Thursday. Really helped Davis Mills out 310 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,319 Speaker 1: and these primetime games. Now last night wasn't as entertaining, 311 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: but it was pretty close going late to the third quarter. 312 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: But man, Sunday Night, last Thursday, last Monday, these were 313 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: tremendous games. The first Thursday night game, and I don't 314 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: know if I could take it. Man, it's hard to 315 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: stay up late. Well yeah, especially with the Ravens and 316 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 1: the Raiders going into Old Time. I mean, it's just 317 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: like home. I was like, I want to go. I 318 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: want I wanted to get up in the morning and 319 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: work out. I was like, well, there goes that idea, 320 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 1: because I gotta see how this ends now I've invested 321 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: so much time into it. And then they've got Yeah, 322 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 1: then you get like Payton and Eli. Even if the 323 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: game isn't great, I just want to see what guests 324 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: they have on. They had Rob Gronkowski on, they had 325 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: Brett Barve. They were talking about trying to sneak in 326 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 1: a Brett Farve's bar as kids. I mean, who doesn't 327 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: want to hear that? I kind of want to hear 328 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: out the game, but I want to hear all the 329 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: stories too. So the primetime games have been great, so 330 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: you know, hopefully the Thursday night game is a good 331 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 1: one for the Texans. Yeah, I'd take a Texans blowout, 332 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 1: really boring national audience. Do everybody a favorite? Look, we're 333 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 1: gonna put them away early, get to sleep. That would 334 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: be fantastic for me and low stress. But you're right, 335 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: as if viewers sometimes with these primetime games when you 336 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 1: have to get up early the next day and watching 337 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 1: it into the night is a bit of a challenge. 338 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: You're like, can I get a blowout please? So I 339 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: can just go to bed earlier. I'm like, entertain me, please, 340 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: entertained me. I want to see more. Let's go. And 341 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: that Raiders game was unbelievable, and last night I was 342 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: pulling for Detroit for a variety of reasons. Aaron Glenn 343 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: is the defensive coordinator for the Lions, and I love 344 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 1: Aaron you know, so I hate it that Green Bay 345 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: did well last night, that the Lions didn't win their opener, 346 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: but too tough. He's to start the season for the Lions. 347 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: Will see how it goes. For that, I know you 348 00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: love Aaron Glenn. Actually, the Manning brothers were talking about 349 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn, how he was with the Saints and how 350 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: the Lions defense was probably going to copycat with the 351 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 1: Saints with the Saints did the week before, So because 352 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: wow for him, But I thought, I thought of you, 353 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 1: because you you just love you some Aaron Glenn from 354 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 1: his time here with the Texans. You know, the Saints 355 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 1: couldn't copycat with the Saints did the week before. They 356 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: got just smashed by the Panthers, and watching some of that, 357 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, this doesn't even look like the same team 358 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 1: that played the Packers the week before, the one that 359 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: faced the Panthers. But it's one of those things. Now, 360 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: the Saints had a lot of players banged up, and 361 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: they were missing all those assistant coaches due to COVID, 362 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: and I guess this is the best thing for assistant 363 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 1: coaches and contract negotiations. Look, if you don't have us, 364 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: look what happens, right, We need the big one now. Look, 365 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 1: the coaching is all done already, but I guess a 366 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 1: lot of those guys had to be missing during the 367 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 1: week when game planning takes place and everything and you 368 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 1: have to do zoom calls. It's not the same thing. 369 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 1: You do have Sean Payton, but again you need all 370 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: the staff have to really get a team ready all right. Well, 371 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 1: as far as other injuries are concerned, No Terrence Mitchell 372 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 1: this week. He's in the concussion protocol. According to Lovely Smith, 373 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 1: expect Raimon Smith to be the next man up. And 374 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,360 Speaker 1: Justin Reid, who went in and out of the game 375 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,440 Speaker 1: on Sunday with a knee injury, expected to be back 376 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 1: on Thursday. He did not practice, but you know what, 377 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:23,119 Speaker 1: like you said, their walkthroughs and they're not really full practice, 378 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 1: so maybe they're just taking some time. A lot of 379 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 1: there's a big list of players that did not practice today, 380 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:32,199 Speaker 1: Justin Reid, Common Gruge Hill among them. Maybe that's so 381 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: that they can get some extra rust for Thursday, what 382 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: we can hope. I found that interesting because yesterday that 383 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 1: released the injury report and it was an estimation on 384 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 1: if they could practice, if there was a full practice 385 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 1: and read was limited along with ka today they actually practiced. 386 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,199 Speaker 1: It was look, we saw some of it right, it 387 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 1: was walk through slash. We are throwing the ball around, 388 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:55,959 Speaker 1: you're running, you're jogging around a little bit. Maybe they 389 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 1: did some other stuff while we weren't there, but they 390 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 1: were out of practice. I don't think that rules them 391 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:03,719 Speaker 1: out for the game. I don't think there's any way 392 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: David Kelly would have said what he said about them, 393 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:10,200 Speaker 1: which had some optimism to it, right, So well, let's 394 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:11,640 Speaker 1: just hope that they can get out there and play. 395 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,119 Speaker 1: They're probably getting treatment. I like that they don't have 396 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: to fly. They don't have to be on the plane tomorrow. 397 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 1: They don't have to be on planes, trains, automobiles to 398 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 1: get to Carolina. They can just be home, get treatment, 399 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 1: do whatever they need to do to make it possible 400 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: for them to play on Thursday night. Obviously, both guys 401 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,679 Speaker 1: are really important to what they do defensively. Yeah, and 402 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 1: we heard from some of the players today. Run game 403 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 1: is going to be a point of emphasis with a 404 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: ricky quarterback under center. Hyas Howard said it's a goal 405 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,679 Speaker 1: for the old line each week, but especially important with 406 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: a rookie under center. David Johnson said as much. He said, 407 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 1: it's important to run the ball effectively. We've all been 408 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 1: there as rookies, he said, So they want to do 409 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 1: what they can to get the run game going. Last week, 410 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: the Texans rushed for eighty two yards as a group, 411 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: and that was with Ingram leading with fourteen yards for 412 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: forty one sorry, four team carries for forty one yards, 413 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,640 Speaker 1: excuse me, and the week before one hundred and six yards. 414 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: So a big drop off from week one a week two. Granted, 415 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: that was a tough defensive front that you were facing 416 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: with the Browns. They want to get back on trap 417 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 1: with this good, solid run game, It's not going to 418 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: be easy with this Carolina Panthers front. I mean, this 419 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:21,400 Speaker 1: defense is allowing under fifty yards an attempt per game, 420 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: and that's just your two games. I think they're averaging 421 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,400 Speaker 1: forty six and a half yards is what they're allowing. 422 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: That's I mean, I had to double check those numbers 423 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 1: on the ground and they've had ten sacks. Well, but 424 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,120 Speaker 1: here's the thing. When the game becomes a blowout, right 425 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 1: or when it becomes a two score lead or whatever, 426 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 1: you get away from that run, you start to throw 427 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 1: the ball too much, or maybe you need to throw 428 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 1: the ball, and you're starting to force things. Look, the 429 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:46,919 Speaker 1: Jets are the Jets. They have a rookie quarterback, and 430 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 1: obviously they've been struggling big time these first two games, 431 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 1: and the Saints I don't know. I mean, Winston turn 432 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: it over, they had pressure in the backfield, they did 433 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: get to him, they did sack him. So I think 434 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: a lot of that is protection shoes. And you're not 435 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:03,880 Speaker 1: gonna be able to run the ball. You know you're down, 436 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: you're down two touchdowns, three touchdowns, You're not running the ball. 437 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 1: What were they seventeen? Nothing up and there's just no 438 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,360 Speaker 1: way and then they pull away from there. So I'm 439 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: not that surprised. The thing is for the Texans, if 440 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: you can get the lead, if you can play from 441 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 1: in front and outdistance them that way. Obviously you know 442 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: you always want to do that, but that would really 443 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 1: help at home, get everybody jacked up. You can't have 444 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 1: another one of these. We got to come from behind 445 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,880 Speaker 1: to win situations. I mean, I'm not saying it's impossible, 446 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,200 Speaker 1: but it would behoove you to have a lead for 447 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 1: the rookie quarterback Davis Mills, who they all say knows 448 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,199 Speaker 1: the offense so well, and they've said it from the 449 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 1: get go, they set it from OTAs. You know how 450 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 1: well he knew the offense, how good he looked in 451 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,439 Speaker 1: checking out of plays, checking into what works against different fronts, 452 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: he's got to be able to do that. Thursday night. 453 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: I was encouraged by several players talking about his mobility 454 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: that he may surprise people out there with his ability 455 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: to move in and out of the pocket. So I 456 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 1: think we saw a little bit of that in training camp. 457 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 1: You know, we didn't see as much in the games, 458 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,439 Speaker 1: but I feel like during practices we saw it. So 459 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: it'll be interesting to see him, Yeah, what he's able 460 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 1: to do with his legs to sort of extend to play. 461 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: David Coley said, it's not going to the offense isn't 462 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:21,239 Speaker 1: going to change much, and Cecil talked about it too. 463 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: He said they may limit the amount of plays that 464 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 1: are accessible to him. They'll sort of shorten up the 465 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 1: playbook for him so he doesn't have this entire playbook 466 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 1: at his disposal, But overall, they'll probably do some things. 467 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,679 Speaker 1: David Coley said that that you know, Davis Mills does 468 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 1: a little bit better, and some of the things that 469 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: Tyrod did better. They'll take it out of his repertoire 470 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: of plays for Thursday night's game. But I'm encouraged that 471 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 1: he's not like a totally different style quarterback. It's not 472 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 1: like you're bringing a guy that doesn't move at all. 473 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,119 Speaker 1: Davis Mills has got some mobility, and a lot of 474 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,440 Speaker 1: the offensive lineman said so as well. He can move around. Look, 475 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 1: he's got big legs, he can run. It's just and 476 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:57,160 Speaker 1: Seth put it well this morning when he said, look, 477 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 1: you can't expect every quarterback to be and he didn't 478 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 1: word it quite like this. Lamar Jackson, Kyler Murray, they're 479 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,160 Speaker 1: not all like that, the Shan Watson, they're not all 480 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: like that. You know. They don't all run like Michael Vick. 481 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: Just because you don't doesn't mean you're not mobile or 482 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: you can't move with your legs and make some plays 483 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 1: that way. No one's asking for a hundred yards rushing. 484 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: But if you could pick up two or three first 485 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 1: downs or maybe four to the course of a game 486 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: just by running around, running out of bounds, maybe slide 487 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,680 Speaker 1: a couple of times, how much does that help an 488 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: offense a ton? You know, during the years two thousand 489 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 1: and two to two thousand and six in the NFL, 490 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: those are the first five years of Texans history, the 491 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 1: second leading rushing quarterback in the NFL was David Carr. 492 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 1: Michael Vick was first. You know, Michael Vick being first 493 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: doesn't surprise anybody. Carr was second. Now, it's not like 494 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 1: the Texans had a ton of success, but he could run. 495 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: He could run. Now, it wasn't vic, he wasn't any 496 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 1: of those guys that I just mentioned. But he could 497 00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 1: make some plays with his feet. And that's what you 498 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 1: need Davis Mills to do from time to time just 499 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 1: to bail his team out safely. Though, you know, he 500 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,199 Speaker 1: can't have him just like Ryan Fitzpatrick himself into you know, 501 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 1: a bunch of players, like a mosh pit of players. 502 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: David Carr never really had those designed run plays, right, 503 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 1: I mean, that wasn't a thing back then. No, really, 504 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 1: well it was. I mean I feel like, yeah they bootleg. Yeah, no, 505 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 1: no exactly. It was not a same Even Keenum in 506 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 1: the last year with Kubiak, Keenam had this play against 507 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 1: the Patriots where he just kind of it was like 508 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,359 Speaker 1: student body, right, and he just carried the ball he 509 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 1: had tucked under and they were just running it blocking 510 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 1: out front, just ranted into the end zone. They led 511 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: that game twice in the second half in twenty thirteen, 512 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 1: that disastrous season. I mean, they had they had two 513 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 1: leads on the Patriots that they blew in the second 514 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: half of that game. But you know, it's the Patriots 515 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:53,640 Speaker 1: and it was the Texans having a bad year. But 516 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: car they would run some boots and then he would 517 00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 1: run off the bootleg. You know, if he didn't see 518 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 1: anybody down field, he would do stuff like that. But 519 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 1: you're right, they weren't, you know, calling a bunch of 520 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 1: designed runs for him. I mean, it was before that 521 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:09,880 Speaker 1: spread offense, that RPO stuff that came in eventually, Um, 522 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 1: that was before all that. Now that's well, you know 523 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,359 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson against the Kansas City Chiefs at that final 524 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 1: touchdown run that he had where he somersaulted in an 525 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 1: end zone, what is he doing? Okay, so I thought, 526 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 1: am I just like, no, I'm not about them having 527 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 1: I'm all about celebrations. But they replayed it a couple 528 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 1: times and he's sort of landing on his hip. It 529 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: looks and I thought, that looks. That looks like mattress. 530 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: That's mattress. That's the end zone. That is ground, that 531 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,399 Speaker 1: is the ground, hard ground. Like I look at that, 532 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,360 Speaker 1: you know, I was like, oh, that hurts my hip 533 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,360 Speaker 1: to just watch. I'm like rubbing my hip now while 534 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: I'm talking about it, But all people fall down and 535 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,239 Speaker 1: you know, brace themselves, like he's flipping into the air. Now, 536 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 1: he's a young guy, he's twenty five years old, twenty 537 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 1: four years old. But come on, I and you know 538 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,399 Speaker 1: car boss that I have no problem with it. Of 539 00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 1: course he's gonna say that he loves Oh he did. 540 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,439 Speaker 1: They asked him about it. Yeah, I miss that. That's okay, 541 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 1: it's fine. He's probably behind closed doors yet. Ever again, 542 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 1: why are you risking anything? Well, I think it's adrenaline. 543 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 1: I bet if you ask any of these players when 544 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 1: they're in the moment, they just have so much adrenaline 545 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 1: it probably doesn't even hurt. And then the next day 546 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: probably just blends in with all the other aches and 547 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: pains they have. But I just thought, don't please hopefully, 548 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,680 Speaker 1: because what if you landed on something else? Are you 549 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,199 Speaker 1: related wrong? That would just be devastating. But that was 550 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:29,399 Speaker 1: great for the highlight rule. It was like he was 551 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,919 Speaker 1: jumping off a dock. There's no water there, it's just diving. 552 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,199 Speaker 1: Oh wait, I'm not at a pool, I mean the 553 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: end zone. It was it was great for the highlight rule. 554 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 1: They showed it over and over but it just makes 555 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 1: me wins every time I see it. All right, things 556 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: that won't make you wins, Things to get excited about. 557 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: The Texans are leading in several statistical categories.

Primetime games always a 635 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 1: lot of fun and mark Before the break, I teased 636 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: a few statistical categories that the Texans are leading in. 637 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 1: One of them which was something that David Culley really 638 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: bothered him in the preseason third down conversions in one 639 00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 1: of the games, and the Texans curling ranked second in 640 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 1: the NFL and third down conversions fifty seven point one 641 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: four percent conversion rate, Carolina fourteenth, so they actually rank 642 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 1: ahead of Carolina and their third down conversions. Isn't that 643 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: interesting how you're one and one and you're that highly 644 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 1: ranked in third down conversions? Third down is a big deal. 645 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 1: And the Texas five takeaways on the season and how 646 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 1: many turnovers too, so they're five to two, they're plus 647 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 1: three in turnover margins through two games, and they're second 648 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 1: and third down conversions. That to me, Deepe says, you 649 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 1: should have to be two and oh maybe according to 650 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 1: those numbers, So why aren't you two and oh? You 651 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 1: gave up too much on the ground, right, And because 652 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 1: the Browns didn't have to get to third down much, 653 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: you know, they were starting to really roll in the 654 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 1: second half of those running plays with Chub and Kareem Hunt, 655 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield didn't have to throw it that much after 656 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 1: he got hurt. They got the lead, they kind of 657 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: sailed into the finish, and that one turnover in the 658 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: second half of the Texans that they committed was obviously costly, 659 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 1: even though they held to a field goal that killed 660 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 1: a possession, short field field goal, double digit lead. You know, 661 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 1: it's tough to overcome. Yeah, you're right, third down conversions. 662 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: I always thought if you could, if you had a 663 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,719 Speaker 1: high third down conversion, right, you're probably gonna win games 664 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 1: because that means you're extending the drive. Then I would think, Okay, well, 665 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 1: maybe your red zone percentage, maybe that's the indicator for 666 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: I mean, you don't I guess you can't make it. 667 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: You can only succeed in how are many trips you take? 668 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 1: Right as far as red zone percentage. Houston tied for 669 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: eleventh seventy five percent zone, which is something that they 670 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 1: have struggled in in the past, and Carolina twenty fifth 671 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: tied for twenty fifth forty two point eight five percent. Yea, 672 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: they just crazy. They just score from the forty. They 673 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,239 Speaker 1: don't worry about what it is. Let's not wait till 674 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 1: we get inside the score. Let's score from here. We'll 675 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 1: be fine. But the Texans are also averaging more points 676 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: per game than Carolina too. They're averaging twenty nine points 677 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 1: a game Carolina twenty two and a half. Statistically, the 678 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 1: Texans look better on paper. I know that sounds crazy 679 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 1: because they've got a Rokie quarter quarterback starting this week 680 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: and a number of injuries, but statistically they look better. 681 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 1: They also, um, you mentioned the takeaways. Houston ranks second 682 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 1: in the NFL and first in the AFC with five takeaways. 683 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 1: Only Dallas has more. Dallas has six takeaways, and the 684 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:56,600 Speaker 1: plus three turnover differential also second. Dallas is plus plus four. 685 00:32:57,880 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 1: That's one thing that Tim Kelly. That's one thing that 686 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 1: Tim Kelly said. He said, we have to do a 687 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 1: better job of turning those takeaways into points, because if 688 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 1: you don't score in every single takeaway, you're basically leaving 689 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 1: points in the field, especially on a short field. It 690 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: seems like there's always one takeaway where they come away 691 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 1: with no points. Right on a short field. I think, 692 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 1: all right, he's he's right. They need more points off 693 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 1: the takeaways. But it's not like they're getting the ball 694 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 1: at the ten yard line and you know, go ahead 695 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 1: and put it in. Now we're going to kick a 696 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 1: field goal. Miss it kind of thing. But he's absolutely right. 697 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 1: I mean, if nothing else, you at least stop the 698 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 1: possession of the opponent and gave yourself a chance, ate 699 00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: some clock whatever, Bud, He's right, you want to turn 700 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 1: those into something positive. It's interesting when you mentioned that 701 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: points per game. I actually had to go look that 702 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 1: up again. I thought you googling, I said, Mark does 703 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: not trust I Do you know what it is? It's 704 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: that first game they only scored nineteen points. Again. Yeah, 705 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 1: they won nineteen to fourteen. That's it. I mean, you 706 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 1: know you feel like that was a command ending victory 707 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: now because it's the Jets and they really racked up 708 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson, who you know, did some things in the 709 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 1: game that makes you say, all right, he's gonna be 710 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: good someday. But they only scored nineteen and against the Saints, 711 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,760 Speaker 1: they didn't need to score much because the defense was dealing. 712 00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 1: They held the Saints to seven after the Saints scored 713 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:20,279 Speaker 1: four hundred points the week before against the Packers, but 714 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 1: they only scored twenty six only it was plenty to 715 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 1: win that day. But it's not like they've had the 716 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 1: thirty five to nothing and forty to note. It hasn't 717 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:31,760 Speaker 1: been that way for the Panthers. So again, this team 718 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: should be able to, if nothing else, keep it close 719 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 1: into the fourth quarter, make plays to win the game, 720 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 1: have the opportunity to do that anyway. I know everybody 721 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 1: talks about their receivers and Sam Darld, but it really 722 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,279 Speaker 1: it's just going to boil down to Christian McCaffrey. I mean, 723 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 1: three hundred and twenty four scrimmage yards. He leads the NFL, 724 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:53,320 Speaker 1: whether it's rushing yards, receiving yards. He's got a team 725 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 1: high tying fourteen passes for one hundred and fifty four yards. 726 00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 1: That's as good as any receiver. But yeah, he's only 727 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,320 Speaker 1: scored one to down in two games, which I find curious. 728 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,280 Speaker 1: You know, it could be a red zone thing or whatever, 729 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 1: but he just the numbers are just so their numbers 730 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 1: are so strange to me because he's the terminator. He's Look, 731 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:16,080 Speaker 1: he is so devastating. We saw it here two years ago. 732 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,319 Speaker 1: All right, they won the game with Kyle Allen playing 733 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:22,239 Speaker 1: quarterback against a pretty good Texans team that was ten 734 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 1: and six that year when the AFC sALS won a 735 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: playoff game. Look, Texans were good that year and Panthers 736 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 1: came in here and took it to him. Um, it 737 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,840 Speaker 1: was a competitive game, but still McCaffrey was a nightmare 738 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 1: to deal with. He'll just find different ways to beat you. 739 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 1: I love Collie's answers to questions because somebody tried to 740 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 1: get him. I forget who asked a question. Um, maybe 741 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,439 Speaker 1: it's I keep on wanting to call him Brooks kept 742 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 1: goa from the Chronicle Brooks Cabina. It's not kept. He's 743 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,320 Speaker 1: a golfer anyway, Brooks asked him. I believe it was 744 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:56,359 Speaker 1: Brooks who asked him about you know, how do they 745 00:35:56,440 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 1: use McCaffrey differently from the previous staff, Right, because a 746 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,399 Speaker 1: big game against the Texans last time, Collie wasn't having 747 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: any of it. He just said, look, you know, they 748 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 1: get on the ball to the air, they hand off 749 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:12,399 Speaker 1: to him. Either way, he's dangerous. I'm paraphrasing here, but 750 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 1: that's it. I mean, McCaffrey can beat you with his 751 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 1: legs or with his hands, it doesn't matter. He's that 752 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 1: great number one in the NFL in yards from scrimmage. Right, 753 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: that's pretty pretty solid, pretty solid standing there through two games. Well, 754 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 1: he was hurt last year, but look what happened. Look 755 00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 1: what I mean, their season unraveled with him hurt. I 756 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:34,440 Speaker 1: talked to the Panthers team reporter Kristin Balboni, you know, like, 757 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,120 Speaker 1: are they worried about his durability at all? Because I'd 758 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:40,439 Speaker 1: be so worried if a guy, your entire offense runs 759 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 1: through one guy, and so, I mean, she said, obviously 760 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 1: it's always something they worry about because they saw what 761 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:46,960 Speaker 1: happened last year. But now you've got seventeen games, you've 762 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 1: got an extra game, and you're you're putting so much 763 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 1: load on on one player. But they I think they 764 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 1: try to spread the ball around. But with Sam Darnel, 765 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 1: that's a big reason why he's doing so well is 766 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,160 Speaker 1: because he's got a guy like Christian McCaffrey can just 767 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 1: hand the ball off to him. They got to contain 768 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,360 Speaker 1: that backfield, because you saw what happened against the Browns. 769 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 1: Sometimes those bootlegs, there were people wide open sometimes off 770 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:11,360 Speaker 1: those boots for the Cleveland Browns, and sometimes the backs 771 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 1: everything would crash to the inside. Just whoop, come out 772 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:16,480 Speaker 1: the back door and there they are running free for 773 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:18,840 Speaker 1: a moment. And if McCaffrey's doing that, it's gonna be 774 00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:21,080 Speaker 1: a long night. You gotta find a way to contain him. 775 00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 1: This is me talking. I'm sure Lovey's gonna want my 776 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:28,719 Speaker 1: thoughts on stopping McCaffrey. Well, if Whitney Mercil said the 777 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:30,759 Speaker 1: same thing too, he said, if you can't stop the run, 778 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a long day. It is going to 779 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 1: be a long, long day if Christian McCaffrey is able 780 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 1: to run. But I feel like this this defense is 781 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:40,960 Speaker 1: is more disciplined than what they showed last week against 782 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,200 Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns. They said as much too. They kind 783 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,400 Speaker 1: of got away from that style of defense that we 784 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,719 Speaker 1: had seen them playing, like, especially in the second half, 785 00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:51,920 Speaker 1: maybe with the injuries. They talk about tackling and Lovey Smith, 786 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:54,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I find his press conference is very soothing 787 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 1: because he's just very very and none of us it 788 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 1: makes me none gonna make me sleep, be sort of way, 789 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 1: just like a very comforty like he's just like pretty 790 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 1: good hands. You have good days and bad days. You 791 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 1: just had. You know, some days you just don't tackle. 792 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 1: But that's not it's not not like they don't work 793 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,440 Speaker 1: on tackling every single day. But you know, they all 794 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 1: have faith that they can turn it around. And they 795 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:16,440 Speaker 1: all a lot almost I've pretty much for almost every 796 00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 1: player come out and say even after that game, they 797 00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:22,359 Speaker 1: felt so encouraged by what this team had, even after 798 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 1: a loss, even after losing all those players to injury. 799 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 1: It's like they know that they're better than that. Um, 800 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 1: you know. And then the second half was just it 801 00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:33,279 Speaker 1: was just rough. I mean, that was That's a tough team. 802 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 1: That's a playoff contending team, and Carolina is going to 803 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 1: be tough as well. But hopefully they can fix some 804 00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 1: of those mistakes and be better against the run. You know, 805 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: we saw last year what they did against the run. 806 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:47,799 Speaker 1: It was bad. This defense really struggled against the run, 807 00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,160 Speaker 1: and they seem to be better. They've got a lot 808 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 1: of veterans on that team. Yeah, I love I love 809 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 1: what they're doing overall, and the attitude that they have, 810 00:38:56,840 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 1: because while there was great disappointment on Sunday, they were encouragement. 811 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 1: Now it's not like a moral victory thing, but it's 812 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:06,759 Speaker 1: let's be positive and go out there and do better 813 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 1: next time kind of thing. And I like that about them. 814 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 1: We've talked about it ever since training camp, maybe before that, 815 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 1: how positive they are, how energetic they are. I just 816 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:19,560 Speaker 1: I love the vibe, I really do. And I just 817 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:21,879 Speaker 1: want to see them do well. I just to see 818 00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 1: them at Cleveland go toe to toe with the Browns. 819 00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:27,319 Speaker 1: First half. I thought, you know, Texas are playing with them. 820 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: They're playing with the Browns. They're definitely toe to toe. 821 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 1: They're monoa mono. They're right there with this good team. 822 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:34,759 Speaker 1: This team and some people pick the go to the 823 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:37,359 Speaker 1: super Bowl. And I'm not saying that Texans are as 824 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:39,680 Speaker 1: good necessarily, but on that day they were right there 825 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 1: with them. That's cool. Now, you gotta win these games, 826 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 1: you gotta close the deal, and you gotta do it 827 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:47,799 Speaker 1: with a rookie quarterback. It's fascinating though, because you've had 828 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 1: all these high profile rookies play and now here comes 829 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 1: third round picking getting a start on national television. You know, 830 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,120 Speaker 1: Fields hasn't gotten a start yet, and you know the 831 00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,640 Speaker 1: Trey Lance Lance hasn't yet either. No, I mean, and 832 00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 1: these guys are super high profile now. Obviously Mac Jones 833 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:06,719 Speaker 1: and Zach Wilson have at Trevor Lawrence. But now it's 834 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:08,919 Speaker 1: time for Davis Mills to get a start in front 835 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 1: of the whole nation. Let's see what happens this. You know, 836 00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:15,319 Speaker 1: I think he's the right guy for it as far 837 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:18,720 Speaker 1: as the nerves go, because he just seems like Pete 838 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:22,520 Speaker 1: Sampras even keeled type personality, so that could serve him 839 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:24,440 Speaker 1: well in this deal. Let's see. I think it was. 840 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:26,120 Speaker 1: I think it'd be fun to watch. I think him 841 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 1: and Tim Kelly great combination. I think Tim Kelly's play calling, 842 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,840 Speaker 1: the creativity, the miss directions. I feel like if you 843 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,160 Speaker 1: can catch a defense on its toes or catch him 844 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,880 Speaker 1: off guard, like that's that's I mean, maybe that's the 845 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 1: edge that you need to sort of to boost whatever 846 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,320 Speaker 1: whatever else you need in addition to a work quarterback, 847 00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 1: just to throw some surprises away. That'll that'll go far 848 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:48,880 Speaker 1: in Thursday Night's game. So I'm looking forward to seeing 849 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 1: what the play calling looks like as well. It's been 850 00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:53,440 Speaker 1: entertaining so far. I would expect nothing less on Thursday 851 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 1: Night with Davis Mills. Tim Kelly's getting rave reviews. Rave 852 00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:59,400 Speaker 1: rave reviews, I mean the media. When the media says 853 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,000 Speaker 1: says much nice things about the Texans, I don't know 854 00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 1: what to think. I want to say, where were you? 855 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:10,040 Speaker 1: First of all? I said, I said, you said in 856 00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:13,920 Speaker 1: the offseason, as as they were acquiring all these players, 857 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 1: I thought they're gonna be better than people think because 858 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 1: these guys can play. They're not Pro Bowlers. You know, 859 00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:21,040 Speaker 1: they're not bringing in waves of Pro Bowlers here, but 860 00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:22,959 Speaker 1: they're bringing in guys who can play. Some guys happen 861 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 1: to the Pro Bowls. Some guys have been all pro 862 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 1: I get it, but I'm talking about buying large. But 863 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:29,040 Speaker 1: they can play. They're gonna have a lot of good, 864 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 1: solid players and good solid coaching. Now Kelly is getting 865 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 1: rave reviews because of the creativity on offense, and you know, 866 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 1: I'm here for it. And Johnny and I have said, 867 00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:40,879 Speaker 1: and I know you interviewed him a long time ago 868 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:43,840 Speaker 1: when he was just you know, he started quality controlled 869 00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 1: and tight ends and everything else he did. And interviewing 870 00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 1: him in the early days, in the early days of 871 00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:52,239 Speaker 1: his tenure here, we thought he's got kind of a 872 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 1: head coaching vibe and I don't want to push him 873 00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:55,760 Speaker 1: out the door here. I want him to coach this offense. 874 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:59,759 Speaker 1: But he's he does have a bit of that going on. 875 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 1: And today during his press conference, I thought, oh, man, 876 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:06,560 Speaker 1: I don't want people start coming after Tim Kelly. I 877 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 1: wanted to do well. And if he does well, you 878 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 1: know how this league is, they'll just gobble up town 879 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 1: under the radar. Well, fun fact, I sit in Tim 880 00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:16,719 Speaker 1: Kelly's old office when he was a quality control assistant. 881 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 1: It's been turned into two offices, but this is where 882 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:21,000 Speaker 1: I used to sit. Just a little fun fact. That 883 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:22,960 Speaker 1: is a fun fact. It is a fun fact.

Final segment of Texans All Access. 917 00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:19,160 Speaker 1: We go around the NFL big stories here at Energy 918 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:21,680 Speaker 1: Statium this week quarterbacks and guess what, it's no different 919 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 1: around the NFL. Lots of quarterback injuries. Mark, you were 920 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:28,440 Speaker 1: probably watching the games on the flight coming back from Cleveland. 921 00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:32,400 Speaker 1: Did you know that there were so many injuries in 922 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:34,200 Speaker 1: the other games or were you so busy calling the 923 00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:36,400 Speaker 1: game that you didn't you didn't see? Well, I was 924 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:40,200 Speaker 1: aware of Carson Wentz spraining both both ankles. That's the 925 00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:43,799 Speaker 1: most Carson Wentz thing ever. Like what it makes me? 926 00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:45,640 Speaker 1: It makes me laugh when I see it on the 927 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:49,080 Speaker 1: ticker sprained ankles, Like God, just it just looks weird. 928 00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:52,680 Speaker 1: Look back, I feel bad saying that, But from an 929 00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:55,399 Speaker 1: NFL injury news standpoint, you're right. When you just see 930 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,120 Speaker 1: it on the ticker, you're like, what that looks weird? Really? 931 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:00,759 Speaker 1: I mean, you knew that injuries an issue with him 932 00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:02,719 Speaker 1: coming in and then you see that. But you know, 933 00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:05,319 Speaker 1: so I feel bad for him as a person. I 934 00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:08,440 Speaker 1: never feel bad for the Colts about anything. And we'll 935 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:10,160 Speaker 1: see how it goes for them, and he'll have to 936 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:12,120 Speaker 1: get back and maybe he'll be back by the time 937 00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:15,799 Speaker 1: the Texans face him up there in mid October and 938 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 1: who Andy Dalton, But he could go, likely, he won't 939 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:25,319 Speaker 1: go likely it'll be justin fields. But then today Mike 940 00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 1: Tomlin revealed that Ben Roethlisberger has a pectoral injury on 941 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:32,360 Speaker 1: his left side and it's going to affect his ability 942 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 1: to prepare for the game. So on Sunday could be 943 00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,440 Speaker 1: Mason Rudolph. And they've got t J. Watt with a 944 00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:39,360 Speaker 1: groin injury, so that news for the Pittsburgh Steelers. And 945 00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:42,000 Speaker 1: then two of course, he's probably going to be backed 946 00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:45,160 Speaker 1: up by Jacoby Bursett. But Dolphins they lost thirty five 947 00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:48,840 Speaker 1: and nothing of the Bills, so they've got other problems. See, 948 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 1: I don't think the I think the Bills are really 949 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:52,400 Speaker 1: good and you know, who knows, maybe they beat the 950 00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:54,440 Speaker 1: Chiefs this year. It's so early in the season. This, 951 00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:59,640 Speaker 1: you know, the extra game. The season is already an odyssey, right, 952 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:03,279 Speaker 1: but it's like the Iliad and the Odyssey and all 953 00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:06,040 Speaker 1: of it. When you go to seventeen, there's just that 954 00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 1: extra week. It just feels so long. You're gonna have 955 00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 1: ebb and flow and peaks and valleys, and it's just early. 956 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 1: You can't get fulled by scores. Sometimes the Dolphins aren't 957 00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 1: thirty five, did nothing bad. You know, they're not that bad. 958 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:22,680 Speaker 1: But they had a bad day. And I don't think 959 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:25,200 Speaker 1: the Bills are as good as that. You know, they 960 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 1: had a great day. It's hard to shut out. It's 961 00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:29,799 Speaker 1: hard to shut out a team in this league. But 962 00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 1: Will Fuller, who did not play last week, is expected 963 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:34,440 Speaker 1: to be back. I wonder if that's going to help 964 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:37,480 Speaker 1: their offense to have him back in the game. It'll 965 00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:39,239 Speaker 1: be curious to watch because that was a big news 966 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:41,479 Speaker 1: story late last week that Fuller wasn't going to play. 967 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:43,920 Speaker 1: Brian Flores announced it was a personal issue. He missed 968 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:47,080 Speaker 1: the first game, of course, due to the suspension the 969 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:50,400 Speaker 1: end of his suspension from last year and then was 970 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:52,240 Speaker 1: that with a personal issue, but should be back against 971 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:54,800 Speaker 1: the Raiders. So we'll see if that makes a difference 972 00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,640 Speaker 1: with the Dolphins and trick percent the two and O Raiders. 973 00:46:57,680 --> 00:46:59,680 Speaker 1: I know, like Carolina's two and L Raiders or two 974 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:01,600 Speaker 1: and oh Denver's too. No, I get it, but it 975 00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:03,799 Speaker 1: just feels like everybody else is one in one. You know. 976 00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:05,680 Speaker 1: It just feels like there's so much one and one 977 00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 1: in this league, but it's weak two so you can 978 00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:09,960 Speaker 1: have a lot of that. And you know, I just 979 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,520 Speaker 1: gotta hang in there, gotta hang in there, dB and 980 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:15,920 Speaker 1: hope that somehow, somehow you get hot later. And I 981 00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:18,719 Speaker 1: don't want to like go there right now. It's a 982 00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:20,680 Speaker 1: week to week thing. Let's just focus. Why now, that's 983 00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:22,480 Speaker 1: what we do on this show. That's what we do 984 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:25,719 Speaker 1: on this show. We start, we start charting our playoff 985 00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:29,440 Speaker 1: picture in October. This is what we do.
