Speaker 2: I know. Last night was a season premiere and it

18
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 2: was fantastic. I want to get your thoughts on that

Speaker 2: in just a second. But it also kicked off the

Speaker 2: major part of the college football season. And by the way,

21
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:58,320
Speaker 2: Shooter standers really really good and Travis Hunter might be

00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 2: even better. Colorado get to win. You've got games tonight.

23
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 2: Our guy Andre Ware is gonna be calling Temple in Oklahoma. Yeah,

24
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:08,720

30
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,560

Speaker 2: Florida State. That's O'Brien and Boston College first game together,

35
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:41,320

40
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 1: That is this.

41
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 2: It couldn't get much better than what you've got. And

42
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 2: if you're in and around the Houston area, you've got

43
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 2: UNLV taken on Houston. Yeah, on Saturday, you've also got

44
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 2: Sam Houston taken on Rice. They're playing for the first

45
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 2: time since nineteen ninety three, right at Sam Houston.

46
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 1: Are they at Rice? They're at Rice? Yes, that was Rice.

47
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 2: And then two weeks from Saturday, I'll be calling the

48
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 2: Sam Houston game against Hawaii. So Hawaii's coming here, Hawhay's

49
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 2: coming here. And eventually I don't know if it's the

50
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's twenty five or twenty six,

51
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 2: but Sam ends up going to Hawaii too.

52
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 1: How do they do that?

53
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 3: Does Hawaii come in? How many days early? For reverse

54
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:37,639
Speaker 3: bodyclock prevention?

55
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,959
Speaker 2: So the last time I remember Hawaii coming in here'ston

56
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 2: This is a long time ago.

57
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 1: It was two thousand and seven. It's my first team radio, and.

58
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 2: Hawaii played Louisiana Tech and maybe UTEP, I think, And

59
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 2: so Hawaii flew. I was trying to find like a

60
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 2: kind of happy median point. So they flew and stayed

61
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 2: in Houston, Okay, then flew to Rustin to take on

62
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 2: Louisiana Tech, flew back to Houston, practiced at Rice, oh

63
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 2: my god, and then flew wherever they were going to

64
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 2: El Passeo. I think to take on UTEP and it

65
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 2: was like a two game swing and that was the

66
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 2: year they end up going to undefeated, so they had

67
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 2: to do that. So I with just the one one off,

68
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,079
Speaker 2: I'm not sure what Hawaii schedule is, just the one off.

69
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 2: They'll fly to Houston, played the game, and then go back.

70
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 2: So Hawaii has already played. Hawaii played last week against

71
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 2: Delware State. How about this Delware State missed their flight.

72
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, somehow still, somehow still got there and played

73
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 2: to give I.

74
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 3: Heard about this busting to New York or Newark, maybe

75
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 3: one of the New York airports, right, I think it's

76
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 3: Newark from Delaware State, which was a four hour ride approximately,

77
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 3: So they must have screwed up the timing on that

78
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 3: and they were like, we're not gonna make it. Okay,

79
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 3: we forgot about New York traffics. Sorry, there was an

80
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 3: extra hour and it just screwed everything up. And how

81
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 3: do you miss your flight? So they're flying commercial. I

82
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 3: guess the college football team is flying commercial. I mean,

83
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 3: it's why and if not a direct well maybe it

84
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 3: was a direct flight.

85
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: I don't know.

86
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 2: Well, it's an FCS team, but My guess is that's

87
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 2: a that's a money game for the rough. I don't

88
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 2: know what Hawaii's in the picks. Why doesn't make a

89
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 2: whole lot of money either, But at least why he

90
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 2: got out of littlehas Stadium. They're not got They're on

91
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 2: campus stadium, which is kind of nice. So I'll call

92
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 2: that game two weeks from Saturday. But Sam Houston Rice

93
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 2: is gonna end up being a really good game. U

94
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 2: and W Houston is a good game.

95
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 3: Why don't they just do the Pro Bowl the Pro

96
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 3: Bowl games at the new Hawaii Stadium and bring it

97
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 3: back to Hawaii. Everybody will want to go. It'll be wonderful.

98
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,839
Speaker 3: It's back in Orlando again. Nobody wants it there other

99
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 3: than maybe Orlando. I just don't understand this.

100
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: Go back to Hawaii. It's it's not even a game anymore.

101
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,839
Speaker 1: Gift like, you made the Pro Bowl, You're going to

102
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,280
Speaker 1: Central Florida. No, no, no, you made the Pro Bowl.

103
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: You go to Hawaii.

104
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 3: Why isn't Stephen Ross begging to have it in Miami

105
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 3: every year? That's true because the point you'd want to

106
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 3: go to Miami, you'd point definitely want to go to

107
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,359
Speaker 3: my or lall you know last year in Vegas.

108
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: Okay was it Vegas? Wait? Vegas was the super Bowl

109
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 1: years ago? Okay, yeah, Vegas is super Bowl. Yeah, why

110
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,599
Speaker 1: wasn't in Vegas? I don't know. Maybe you get lost

111
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:07,919
Speaker 1: amongst all the things that were going on.

112
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 3: Cool cool, hot, warm place, you know, a place where

00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 2: We knew there had to be a third quarterback coming

159
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 2: at some point, we figured and.

160
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 1: Keten Slovas ends up being that guy.

161
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,559
Speaker 2: But when I said Mark Peer, they made me think

162
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 2: because I think that was the first name that you

163
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 2: had to announce last night season premiere.

164
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: How that goes.

165
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 3: It's not an alphabetical order. When you introduced the players

166
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 3: at the season premiere, introduced every single one of them.

167
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 3: And there are a couple of guys who couldn't make

168
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 3: it for whatever reason, just like a couple And CJ

169
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 3: was last because he's at the front table, so that's

170
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 3: why he went last.

171
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 1: But it's perfect that he's last. Yeah, ye, And they

172
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 1: gave me.

173
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 3: It's funny because the legends who were in attendance, there

174
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 3: were six seven legends there and Andre Johnson's name was

175
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 3: in the middle of the list. I said, you know,

176
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 3: I'm in this to the bottom. Okay, this is trust me.

177
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 3: It's gonna go last. Pro Football Hall of Famer. But

178
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 3: it was cool because Andre Davis, whose team development coordinator,

179
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,080
Speaker 3: he's working with the squad this year. He did the

180
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 3: invocation and I've done many events. Johnny and many great

181
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 3: people have done the invocation at these events that I've

182
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 3: done here in Houston and even before Houston, but I've

183
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 3: never introduced the guy doing the invocation as somebody's returned

184
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 3: two kickoffs for a touchdown in the single NFL game,

185
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 3: one of eleven people in NFL history to do it.

186
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 1: Of course I did, of course I did.

187
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 3: I was like, right here on this field, because season

188
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 3: premiere was on the field, said, right here on this

189
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 3: field returned two kickoffs for a touchdown, one of eleven

190
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 3: people in the history of this game to do it,

191
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 3: and it was awesome. Then he's like, please bow your heads,

192
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,199
Speaker 3: so he does the invocation.

193
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 1: It was great. It was a really terrific night.

194
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:41,520

Speaker 1: I love it. It's awesome.

219
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:05,079
Speaker 2: So I can't remember what year it was, but in

220
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 2: and obviously I paid attention to it because I coached

221
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 2: in Florida and so the FHS double A the governing body,

222
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 2: so in Texas it's ui L there's f FHSA. They

223
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 2: had decided they were going to add girls flag football. Yeah,

224
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,719
Speaker 2: and I remember thinking at the time and it was

225
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,839
Speaker 2: It was a while back, but it was it was

226
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 2: probably within the last.

227
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 1: Eight to ten years that they decided to do this.

228
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 2: And I just remember thinking, I thought back to the

229
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 2: to Episcopal when I was there, and I thought about,

230
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 2: you know, if I was coaching that team, oh I

231
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 2: could have had I could let her, could let her

232
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 2: oh man, that that would have been a good team.

233
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 2: I could have put together a good flag football team

234
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,080
Speaker 2: from those girls that were at Episcopal. But I thought,

235
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 2: I wonder how this is going to go, Like what

236
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 2: sport's gonna give? Where are they going to pull those athletes,

237
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 2: those athletes from, Like are gonna pull from the track

238
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,079
Speaker 2: team or they're gonna pull from the basketball team or whatever.

239
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 2: So I was a little I was a little dubious

240
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 2: of how, like, man are the coaches that coaches other

241
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 2: sports for girls, Like are they gonna not so much

242
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 2: allow them to go play a different sport, but are

243
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 2: the the girls themselves gonna want to play that sport

244
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 2: have already been if they've already been established in soccer

245
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,680
Speaker 2: or they've already been established in softball, are they gonna

246
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:25,079
Speaker 2: want to go play girls flight football? Lo and behold

247
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 2: that has exploded in Florida. In Florida, it is exploding. Wow,

248
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 2: there are girls like football programs at I mean hundreds

249
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 2: of schools in Florida. Wow, hundreds. You know, it is

250
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 2: taken off like wildfire. Well that's crazy that it's taken

251
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 2: this long. But I'm so glad that Texans are behind

252
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 2: it because think about what a hotbed for athletes, not

253
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 2: just football players.

254
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 1: That this market is.

255
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 3: And it's one of the top markets in the country

256
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:58,680
Speaker 3: of producing NFL talent, So girls flag football talent obviously

257
00:11:58,920 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 3: it's there.

258
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, so this is gonna be good for us.

259
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,839
Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be fantastic, And I think this

260
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 2: can take off once once the girls start playing flag

261
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 2: football and they see opportunities and I don't know what

262
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 2: opportunities there are at college loves and a lot of

263
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 2: times I end up seeing highlights of in inner mural

264
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,079
Speaker 2: flag football. When there was a girl at Florida State

265
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 2: and her video went viral. She was incredible.

266
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:28,319
Speaker 1: She on campus and on campus in amurro programs.

267
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 2: I wonder at some point if they don't start adding

268
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:35,080
Speaker 2: and maybe that ends up being an answer, maybe not

269
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 2: to the title nine thing with football, because that title

270
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 2: nine with football ends up being kind of wonky because

271
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 2: football has well. Now football is gonna have like one

272
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 2: hundred and fifteen scholarships or whatever it's gonna be, So

273
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 2: the numbers are gonna kind of be off with, you know,

274
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,959
Speaker 2: as it pertains the title nine. But I wouldn't be

275
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,680
Speaker 2: surprised at some point if we started seeing, you know,

276
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:56,839
Speaker 2: university start adding flag football as an intercollegiate sports.

277
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 3: A lot of them do, like n ai A. Yeah, yeah,

278
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 3: a bunch of ANI schools have it. It's getting into

279
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,559
Speaker 3: the NCAA, I believe, but maybe it's at a different distinction.

280
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:05,679
Speaker 1: But that's all I'm saying.

281
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 2: Like you get you start getting INSTABA teams like say

282
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 2: you get Texas and Texas A and M, and like

283
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 2: the SEC schools start playing start playing uh flag football,

284
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 2: women's flag football. I think it will take off like wildfire,

285
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 2: and I think you will have a ton of athletes

286
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 2: that play it and play like you watch the flag

287
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 2: football that that the NFL puts on its Twitter page. Yeah,

288
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 2: they had a flag football championship just recently, and I

289
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 2: was watching some of the highlights on the network too.

290
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, but a network too. It's fantastic.

291
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 2: I love watching it's so so good. There was one

292
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:41,479
Speaker 2: girl that could absolutely see j strouted. She was firing

293
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 2: the football. I mean, it was awesome to watch. Was like,

294
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 2: holy cow, she's good.

295
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 3: It's not your normal obviously, it's flag and five on five.

296
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 3: The quarterback gets back pretty deep. Yeah, and sometimes somebody

297
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 3: else takes the snap, hands it right to the quarterback

298
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 3: so the quarterback can run right.

299
00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,439
Speaker 1: And that takes place in men's and women's.

300
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,440
Speaker 3: You mentioned Florida, by the way, I've I've counted here

301
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 3: in nai A one, two, three, four or five at

302
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 3: least that play flag football women in Florida, Florida Memorial

303
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 3: Saint Thomas, those two are in Miami. I believe Georgia

304
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 3: has a couple. So it's it's around.

305
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 2: It's just gonna expand, Jenny coming, It's you're right, it's

306
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 2: going to expand. And with the Texans putting their you know,

307
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 2: their weight behind it to provide for the city.

308
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 1: Of it's it's gonna take off.

309
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 2: It's gonna take off because the sisters of you know,

310
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 2: brothers that play football grew up playing football, but then

311
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 2: all of a sudden they get to a certain points, like, well,

312
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 2: they can't play anymore. There's no program. Oh well now

313
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 2: there is. Now there's flag football. I could it's you

314
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 2: don't you don't need a ton of money. Obviously you

315
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 2: got to have flags and footballs and things like that,

316
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 2: but you don't need pads and helmets and all those things.

317
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 2: You don't have to, you know, foot the bill. That's

318
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 2: why I've always kind of thought that flag might be

319
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 2: the future because it's not as financially taxing on programs,

320
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 2: because the budgets have to be so much more for

321
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 2: reconditioning of helmets, new shoulder pads, all that kind of stuff.

322
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 2: I mean, I just think about what my budget was

323
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 2: as a high school football coach, like it was.

324
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 1: It was steep.

325
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 2: You could have taken that money and and made that

326
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 2: the budget for the flight football team and you would

327
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 2: have been able to fund them for you know, however.

328
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 2: Long the game is really exciting, it's really fun.

329
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 3: Those games on NFL Network were really interesting. They were

330
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 3: watchable games. And in the Olympics, if you have NFL

331
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 3: athletes doing that names you know, although I forget the

332
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 3: name of the quarterback who was coming back. On social media,

333
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 3: memes highlighted the dude can sling it, but he's got.

334
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: A wind up, said news or something. It's like his

335
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 1: his wind up is like Charles.

336
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 2: Barkley's golf swing. But the ball gets there and he

337
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 2: can He's got moves. I'm going to defend him from

338
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 2: from one standpoint. Now I can also counter it. But

339
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 2: I played tackle football for I.

340
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 1: Don't know how many every years.

341
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 2: And when I stopped playing tackle football, I moved with Jacksonville.

342
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 2: I was teaching and I had a couple of a

343
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 2: couple of guys approached me and say, hey man, we've

344
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 2: had this flag football league out at the beach, Jacksonville Beach.

345
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 2: You got Jacksonville Jacksonville Beach Flag Football League, and we'd

346
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 2: like for you to play.

347
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: And I was like, okay, sounds good. I mean I

348
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: played wroun I was in fifth grade. I'll play.

349
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 2: One of the more difficult things to do is to

350
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 2: go from playing tackle to then pulling flags.

351
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,840
Speaker 1: It sounds easy, like all I gotta do is people.

352
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 1: That's right.

353
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 2: You're used to hitting people, and sometimes that technique of

354
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 2: hitting somebody isn't the same as I got to break

355
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 2: down and pull a flag.

356
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 1: That's almost more basketball oriented.

357
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 2: So he's right in a sense that You're not just

358
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 2: going to be able to not practice, not work out,

359
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 2: not work on the whole flag thing, and go play.

360
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 2: You're gonna no way because you're so used to the

361
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 2: contact and the collisions. You have none of that. So

362
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,119
Speaker 2: you have to learn to play without that. And so

363
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,120
Speaker 2: that's going to take a second. It's going to take

364
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 2: a bit. But if you get some NFL players that

365
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,639
Speaker 2: start doing it and working on it over the summer,

366
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 2: come together and you know, learn the rules and you know,

367
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,439
Speaker 2: practice those kind of things, you'll get over it.

368
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,919
Speaker 1: But I see his point. It isn't It was not easy.

369
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 1: Like I found.

370
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 2: Pulling flags to be way, way harder than going and

371
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 2: playing tackle.

372
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:29,880
Speaker 1: Darryl do Set, Darryl d st.

373
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's his name, and he was you know, he's

374
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 3: made sort of famous, infamous for saying he feels like

375
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 3: he is better than Patrick Mahomes. Yeah, what he means

376
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 3: is at this game right now. But I pull for

377
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 3: Daryl because Daryl should be strongly considered as the favorite,

378
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 3: you know.

379
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 1: The incumbent.

380
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 3: Anyway, he is the incumbent to be on the US

381
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 3: flag football team, and let somebody beat him out. Let

382
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 3: Mahomes beat him out if he wants to play. I

383
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 3: would think Mahomes would be pretty good at this game.

384
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 3: But look, let's see it happened. Because I can tell

385
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 3: you this, I've seen do move in action. I don't

386
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:05,439
Speaker 3: know if Mahomes has that. No. No, And if I'm the Chiefs,

387
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,920
Speaker 3: I don't want to see Mahomes doing what Ducett is doing.

388
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:09,640
Speaker 3: I don't want to see that at all, because Ducett

389
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 3: is really contorting his body in ways that you know

390
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 3: might rip up a knee or two on a starting

391
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 3: quarterback in this league.

392
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 1: And you don't want to see that happen.

393
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,680
Speaker 2: Well, that's the That's the other thing too, is how

394
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 2: many of these teams are going to say, hey, like.

395
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 1: Just do the do the map of me?

396
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 2: So the LA Olympics twenty twenty eight, yes, right, So

397
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,160
Speaker 2: I know a lot of people are talking about I've

398
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:32,679
Speaker 2: heard this.

399
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 1: I've heard them mentioned Tank Dell for instance. Right, So

400
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:37,640
Speaker 1: let's do the math on this, right.

401
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 2: So Tank plays twenty three, twenty four, twenty five, twenty six.

402
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:43,720
Speaker 1: Okay, so that's four years now. If Tank does what

403
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 1: we think.

404
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,720
Speaker 2: He should, he's probably gonna get a pretty big contract

405
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 2: extension by then.

406
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,640
Speaker 3: He's one of these guys that and by then it's

407
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,640
Speaker 3: one fifty, not one, right, right, you know.

408
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:52,879
Speaker 4: What I mean?

409
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 2: Exactly So Tank tweaks an ankle, you know, hurts a hamstring,

410
00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 2: and he's now making that sort of green.

411
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know what am I paying for? Here?

412
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:04,399
Speaker 3: What am I paying for? I got to go to

413
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 3: the Olympics and get hurt. I don't want to see that.

414
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,359
Speaker 3: That's exactly right. So I so that always did like,

415
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 3: we need to get the professional skaters out there to

416
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 3: beat the Soviet Union. Oh wait a minute, we did

417
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 3: that with amateurs, but it was hard to do that

418
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 3: with amateurs.

419
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,160
Speaker 1: It was and wow, good.

420
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 3: Who cares about Olympic hockey anymore? Nobody, no other than

421
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 3: the teams themselves. I don't watch that sport anymore.

422
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 1: Do they even?

423
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 3: I know they showcase it. The games have to be

424
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 3: in USA or something when they're doing Winter Olympics. The

425
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 3: Winter Olympic events that I like to watch, men's downhill,

426
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 3: the giant slalem. I love watching that stuff. I don't

427
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 3: care about hockey anymore.

428
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 1: It had its day.

429
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 3: Because the Soviets were so good, the US was so amateur,

430
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 3: the Cold War was in full bloom, and it just

431
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 3: made it for a great context of competition.

432
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 1: So we're talking about flight football.

433
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 2: So I've been listening to Brandon and Seth the last

434
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,959
Speaker 2: couple of days, so I'm going to answer their question,

435
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 2: all right. They they had a question like, when was

436
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,439
Speaker 2: the last time you got in a fight? And the

437
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 2: flag football discussion kind of bridges that gap because that

438
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 2: first year I was playing, that first year that I

439
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 2: was playing flag football, we got to the last game

440
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 2: of the year, oh no, and we weren't very good,

441
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 2: but we got to the last game of the year

442
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 2: and I kind of got in the rules down and

443
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:20,880
Speaker 2: I kind of become kind of the.

444
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 1: Go to guy for our passing game.

445
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 2: And so we're playing this team and this team was good,

446
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 2: but we're hanging with him because I've I've already made

447
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 2: a couple of really nice catches and I'm I'm burning

448
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 2: this dude, and I can hear it every time I'm

449
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 2: making it catch, like it's getting under his skin. So

450
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 2: on the on the drive that we're going down to

451
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 2: tie the game or no, we think we were down

452
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 2: by ten, was.

453
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 1: Going down to at least cut the lead.

454
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:43,879
Speaker 2: Was like it was like thirty one to twenty more,

455
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,199
Speaker 2: We're going on to cut the lead, I made like

456
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:49,640
Speaker 2: a Julian Edelman over the middle, tip it to myself

457
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 2: diving catch, and I.

458
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:52,919
Speaker 1: Was like, I got it, I got it, and the

459
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 1: rest like, yeah, you got it.

460
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 2: And I can hear the guy like making bad words

461
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 2: and saying bad words, and I'm like, okay, I no,

462
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 2: I got him. So on the next route, I run

463
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 2: a post corner post corner post, so as I'm going

464
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 2: to the corner, I slipped.

465
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 1: I had him beat.

466
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 2: I slipped and then I got and then he shoved me.

467
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 2: And I was just like all year long, I have

468
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 2: been getting flat because I was too I was too physical,

469
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,439
Speaker 2: so I was playing tackle. So this guy shoves me,

470
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 2: and I'm just like I learned. I looked at the reft.

471
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 2: I go to the ref and I was like, I

472
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 2: was like, ref, what about the contact? That's all I said. Yeah,

473
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 2: he goes hobo this for contact and he literally shoves

474
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 2: me from behind the ref anoy the other guy. Oh

475
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,960
Speaker 2: oh then it's on. Oh it's okay. Oh I start

476
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 2: throwing hands at that point. Oh yeah, that pulled me off.

477
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 2: They they send me off. I'm not surprised. I had

478
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,879
Speaker 2: like eight catches against this guy, so I knew he

479
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 2: was mapped. So I'm seething now because I've gotten called

480
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 2: for it all year. Many shoves me. I'm like, it's

481
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:59,480
Speaker 2: the only game that I played in that my wife

482
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:03,920
Speaker 2: Paige saw me playing, the only game. All the wives

483
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 2: and girlfriends decided to come to that last game to

484
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:07,200
Speaker 2: see us all place.

485
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,119
Speaker 3: Seen your coach, but it never sits right. She had

486
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:10,640
Speaker 3: never seen me play, So now you.

487
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 1: Get to a fight. So the rep is taking me

488
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 1: probably like that.

489
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,720
Speaker 2: We had only been dating about five six weeks at

490
00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:17,120
Speaker 2: that point.

491
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 1: He's like, oh, he's the guy for me, and so

492
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 1: we get done with the game.

493
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:24,120
Speaker 2: The game is done shortly thereafter, and she walks over

494
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 2: and she's like, hey why, And of course, you know,

495
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,399
Speaker 2: we had just started going out, so it wasn't like

496
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:31,920
Speaker 2: what are you bleeping doing? It was like, hey, why

497
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 2: was that official walking you off the field?

498
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:35,200
Speaker 1: What happened?

499
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:39,879
Speaker 2: And I was like, well, I sort of got thrown

500
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 2: off for fighting.

501
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,679
Speaker 3: Well it's so, Johnny, is this a theme with you?

502
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:45,720
Speaker 3: Because I want to ask you this. Yes, you and

503
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,439
Speaker 3: our producer Robert Hensley were once engaged in a little

504
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 3: dust up the media three on three Rockets tournament when

505
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,199
Speaker 3: you were representing fifteen sixty and Robert was playing for

506
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 3: sports Radio six ' ten.

507
00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:57,880
Speaker 1: That's right.

508
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:02,360
Speaker 2: See, here's the thing about both. They both instigated it,

509
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 2: and they both starting it up against Robert. They pushed

510
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 2: me from behind, and then of course at that point,

511
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 2: well it's on.

512
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 1: So I'll tell you what though your physical Brandon and Seth.

513
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 1: I was twenty two, so there you go.

514
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 3: Oh you were twenty two at the time, twenty two,

515
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:20,640
Speaker 3: So Hensley wasn't a fight.

516
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:22,520
Speaker 1: It was just a dust It was a little dust up.

517
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 1: It was little dust up, but.

518
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,679
Speaker 3: There were Okay, I think we had to step in

519
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:27,639
Speaker 3: or something.

520
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,240
Speaker 1: People had to step in and hold me back. Yeah.

521
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:32,879
Speaker 3: I was fired up because Johnny, I think you guarded

522
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,360
Speaker 3: me once or twice and I was like, ew, Johnny's

523
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:36,040
Speaker 3: the kind of guy.

524
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 1: And Lopez is like this too. You know what these

525
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 1: guys guarding you.

526
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 3: It's so and I'm a pretty physical defensive player basketball,

527
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 3: but it's so unnecessarily.

528
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 1: It's like you don't want to get near you, guys.

529
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,360
Speaker 1: It's awful. Daryl Morey was like that too.

530
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,159
Speaker 3: Darryl Mory was playing with the Rockets team obviously, and

531
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 3: he like sticks his leg right.

532
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,640
Speaker 1: Up, you know, ew get out of here.

533
00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:59,359
Speaker 2: I would have to cover Darryl because I was the

534
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 2: tallest guy on our team and Daryl is throwing elbows

535
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,640
Speaker 2: and you're clearing out and all that, and it would

536
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:07,919
Speaker 2: just frustrate me because my elbows are like, right, his

537
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 2: elbows are running by nose. So I took a couple

538
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 2: right across the bridge in my nose. I'm like, okay,

539
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 2: I've had it.

540
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,439
Speaker 3: You feel like the USA versus the USSR the nineteen

541
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:17,640
Speaker 3: seventy two Olympics, Like.

542
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:18,920
Speaker 1: This just doesn't feel right.

543
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 2: It doesn't feel right. It doesn't. But Brandon Seth, there

544
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 2: you go, twenty two years old. Okay, speaking of twenty

545
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,760
Speaker 2: two years, I think Drew Dory and I have missed

546
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 2: In the Lab podcast for the last twenty two years.

547
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 1: But we're back and it's good. That's coming up next

548
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 1: on Texans All Access.

549
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:36,360
Speaker 4: It's happen, everybody.

550
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 2: Welcome back to a Friday edition of Texans All Access

551
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 2: from Monday Texans Radio Studio. I'm your host, John Harris,

552
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 2: football analyst Out of the Reporter. In one half of

553
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:46,879
Speaker 2: the In the Lab podcast, Drew Dort and I have

554
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 2: been doing this for gosh about six seven years, but

555
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 2: we took a little break during training camp. Now we're

556
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 2: back and we had a lot to talk about.

557
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 5: It's in the lab time, and yes, we're back. It's

558
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,639
Speaker 5: been a long long time. I think July, John, we

559
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,399
Speaker 5: had that break. We always do this every year. We

560
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 5: don't do in the lab during training camp because it's

561
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:08,879
Speaker 5: too crazy, there's too much going on. And I know

562
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:10,639
Speaker 5: that sounds like weird, like, hey, you guys work for

563
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 5: a football team and talk about a football team, but

564
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,440
Speaker 5: you should be talking about it football team during training camp,

565
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,160
Speaker 5: Like it's not how we do it, right, John.

566
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:18,399
Speaker 1: Well, we do talk about the team.

567
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 2: We talk about the team a lot, so doing it

568
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 2: in the lab gets a little bit tough, and especially

569
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 2: when we have ten days in Ohio we were all

570
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 2: over the place and then games and it's kind of nuts.

571
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,919
Speaker 2: So it's in a sense good to get away. But

572
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:35,639
Speaker 2: then it's also great to come back and get in

573
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 2: the lab going again. So it's all good man. I

574
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 2: hope you're doing well.

575
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,200
Speaker 5: I am one thing I want to address here right

576
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:45,159
Speaker 5: off the top. I think long term this training camp

577
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 5: you never able to really quantify things like this, but

578
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 5: I think it's gonna.

579
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:49,879
Speaker 6: Help this team out.

580
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:55,199
Speaker 5: This training camp weather wise, was the mildest one for

581
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 5: the Texans that was not at the Greenbrier, which was

582
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 5: twenty seventeen and twenty eighteen. But think about it, essentially,

583
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,920
Speaker 5: for the first two weeks of training camp, the Texans

584
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 5: were not brying in the one hundred degree heat and humidity.

585
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 5: It was rainy, it was cool, it was windy, relatively cool,

586
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,920
Speaker 5: you know, relatively speaking. Then they go to Ohio, which

587
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,919
Speaker 5: was warm but not bad, not like this. So they

588
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:22,119
Speaker 5: only had about a week or two in the hardcore heat.

589
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,440
Speaker 5: Certainly that'll pay some dividends, don't you think Later on John,

590
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 5: guys being a little bit fresher than normal, I would hope.

591
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,679
Speaker 2: So, I mean, you also started camp earlier, you know,

592
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 2: a week earlier than you're used to, so you kind

593
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 2: of counterbalance having some cooler temperatures at the beginning of

594
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:43,639
Speaker 2: training camp with having some scorching temperatures at the end

595
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 2: of training camp.

596
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 1: There were a.

597
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 2: Couple of days, man, where I was like, I would

598
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 2: look at my watch my phone and go, it's ten thirty.

599
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:52,720
Speaker 2: Oh good god, we have an hour left, or yeah,

600
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:54,919
Speaker 2: forty five minutes left. I can only imagine what they

601
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 2: were going to so going through. So there are a

602
00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,399
Speaker 2: couple of days that were pretty rough, but I think

603
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 2: for the most part that whatever that system dome, whatever

604
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 2: it was that was kind of camped out, that had

605
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 2: us checking the radar like, Okay, we're gonna.

606
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:10,360
Speaker 1: Have to go inside.

607
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 2: Today was actually a godsend because we really only had

608
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,639
Speaker 2: one day that I remember that was really really rainy

609
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:21,959
Speaker 2: during practice. Everything else there might be some rain before,

610
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 2: there might be some rain after, but there wasn't during

611
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 2: and so that allowed them to get some work in

612
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:32,240
Speaker 2: temperatures that were pretty good. Those days that hit hard

613
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 2: after we got back from Ohio, man, those were those

614
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:36,919
Speaker 2: are some tough days. But you know, the day in Ohio,

615
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 2: like you said, it was relatively you know, it was

616
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,600
Speaker 2: relatively nice. It was kind of gray and overcast, and

617
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 2: I think it may be topped out at eighty two

618
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 2: eighty three, so it was it was great. Now the

619
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,920
Speaker 2: field was saturated, so by the second day it was

620
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,119
Speaker 2: almost like muddy conditions. But then we went to the

621
00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:00,080
Speaker 2: game field, which is which is terf and so we

622
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 2: were able to get some They're able to get some

623
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 2: work in there. But I think overall, the temperature being

624
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 2: relatively under control. Was good and in a sense, I

625
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:11,919
Speaker 2: don't know the right way of saying this. I know

626
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 2: Demiko has talked about, you know, that's part of the

627
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 2: mental toughness for this team, is that. The flip side

628
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 2: of that is after you played the Steelers, and the

629
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 2: Steelers night in Pittsburgh was gorgeous, I mean, it was

630
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 2: eighty three.

631
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:25,680
Speaker 1: It was nice.

632
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,200
Speaker 2: I mean it was just pleasant, I mean really pleasant.

633
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 2: Then you played the Giants and you played the Rams.

634
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 2: You played them at rgy Stadium. Although it was list

635
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 2: says an outdoor game, it was indoor. Then you're gonna

636
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 2: play at Indy inside, You're gonna play at Home Bears inside.

637
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,600
Speaker 2: Then you're gonna play at Minnesota inside. Then you're gonna

638
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 2: play Jags Bills inside inside, So you don't go outside.

639
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 2: So October thirteenth, so it wasn't as if you had

640
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 2: to be totally acclimated to the heat because you really

641
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 2: weren't gonna play in it until you go to New

642
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 2: England and Green Bay back to back in October, and

643
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:04,080
Speaker 2: traditionally those places in October are relatively reasonable.

644
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 6: Leaves hitting the leaves in New England at that point, yeah.

645
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, so you really weren't gonna get hit with

646
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 2: this just scorching temperatures or even have the opportunity. I mean,

647
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 2: we played in New England in twenty seventeen Week three,

648
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,959
Speaker 2: Now that was pretty spicy that day. That was week three,

649
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 2: now three weeks later Ian October, and that was that

650
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 2: was rare. So you really didn't need to be out

651
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 2: in the hot, hot, hot temperature. So it actually worked

652
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 2: out for you in some sense because you don't play

653
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:39,320
Speaker 2: any road games outside. You just gotta at this point

654
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 2: figure out how you're You know, Sunday night is gonna

655
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 2: be a Sunday night game the first one, so hopefully

656
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 2: things can happen and the roof get fixed and it will.

657
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 1: Be all indoor for the rest of the way.

658
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 2: But either way, I think it worked out and I'm

659
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 2: curious to see how that plays out going forward, whether

660
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 2: that plays a role or not. The fact that there

661
00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 2: wasn't as much taken out of these guys having to

662
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 2: go and ninety five degree temperatures for three, four five

663
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 2: days in a row.

664
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 5: Okay, roster trim down just happen. Let's let's hit a

665
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:12,880
Speaker 5: few points on that. Technically, there are no true fullbacks

666
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 5: on the roster. Yeah, So do you see more of

667
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 5: and we've kind of heard guys allude to this, more

668
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,760
Speaker 5: of the three wide sets, four wide sets, more.

669
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 6: Two tight end.

670
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 5: I mean, what are you seeing without a true quote

671
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 5: unquote tight end on the roster. Now, they'll use they'll

672
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 5: use some tight ends as full backs. They'll line them

673
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 5: up in the backfield from time to time. British Brooks,

674
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,800
Speaker 5: the rookie out of North Carolina, he's got some thunder

675
00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 5: to him. Maybe he plays some fullback, gets some reps there.

676
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,040
Speaker 5: But what do you make of that? Not having a

677
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 5: true tight end on the roster right now, not having

678
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 5: a true fullback on the roster right now with regards

679
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 5: to this offense and where we think it might be headed,

680
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:54,880
Speaker 5: alignment wise, formation wise, all that stuff.

681
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 2: I'm not being cheeky about this, but I don't know

682
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 2: how much changes. If I'm being honest, I mean, I

683
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 2: think they'll do a number of the same things they did.

684
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 2: You know there were times last year where Golden Schuls

685
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 2: line up at full back. Caate's over is physical. He

686
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 2: can be that fullback. I mean, he's not scared for contact.

687
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 5: Now, I was gonna say it gives you a chance

688
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 5: to put him on the field and not necessarily at

689
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 5: the tight end spot.

690
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:18,120
Speaker 1: That's right.

691
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 2: And then British Brooks we saw in that preseason game

692
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 2: when he did line up at fullback, he didn't scared

693
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 2: to light somebody up and he's kind of moral fullback body.

694
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 1: Anyways.

695
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 2: It's funny because when he was having that game against

696
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 2: the Giants, we talked about on the broadcast the fact that.

697
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 4: You know, he's a pretty thick guy.

698
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 2: I wonder if they wouldn't think about, especially with the

699
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 2: injuries to Andrew Beck, maybe think about playing him at

700
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:40,719
Speaker 2: full back. And then the next week, there he is,

701
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 2: He's at full back and you're like, okay. What I

702
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,960
Speaker 2: loved about it was the fact that when you get

703
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,840
Speaker 2: in training camp, you hear NFL coaches talked through all

704
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 2: the time, well, it's competition, it's competitions, competition.

705
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 4: These guys can be battling for spots. You're gonna be

706
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:54,720
Speaker 4: battling all the time.

707
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:56,560
Speaker 2: And then you see the fifty three men roster and

708
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 2: you're like, that didn't mean squat because I got a

709
00:31:58,600 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 2: terrible training camp.

710
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 1: He's still on the team.

711
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 2: What this proved, but British Brooks making the initial fifty

712
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 2: three man roster proved is that the training camp does matter.

713
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter where you came from.

714
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 2: I mean, all that that talk was was not just luster,

715
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,240
Speaker 2: it was true and British Brooks.

716
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 1: You couldn't deny him.

717
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 2: And I went back and I looked at my Harris Hits,

718
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 2: like when did I first like start making, you know,

719
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 2: taking notice and I started writing about him. I think

720
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 2: it was like day five, which was I think the

721
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 2: first day in pads. Maybe it's day two and pads,

722
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,000
Speaker 2: I can't remember, but then it was like three or four.

723
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 1: Days in a row.

724
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 2: I like, you know, British Brooks is doing some things.

725
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 2: He's catching the ball, well, he's man had a couple

726
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 2: of nice runs. And this is the nasty little secret

727
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 2: in some sense to Harris Hits. There's a lot of

728
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:43,920
Speaker 2: times I don't do a lot as it pertains the

729
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 2: running game because you'll unless it really pops, pops, pops

730
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 2: wide open, right, because guys are kind of tackling.

731
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:54,120
Speaker 6: Not tackling, not tackling all the way.

732
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I kind of don't spend a ton of time.

733
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,840
Speaker 2: But British was really making his name kind of like, man,

734
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 2: he's had a couple of nice runs, and then there

735
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 2: was one day, I think it was maybe the second

736
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 2: or third day, and pads and I remember British took

737
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 2: a toss over to the left side, so it was

738
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 2: on my side, and so I can see him looking

739
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,600
Speaker 2: up and so he's got some room, and all of

740
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:17,720
Speaker 2: a sudden, Kaylen Bullock, fella rookie.

741
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 4: Comes over and I know, Caylun Bullock might look like a.

742
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 2: Pipe cleaner, but he'll hit. He's physical, he's not he's

743
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 2: not scared, he's fearless. I knew there was going to

744
00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 2: be a collision, and all of a sudden, right in

745
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,560
Speaker 2: front of me, like directly in front of me, wham.

746
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 2: I mean, those two hit and then Bullock kind of

747
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 2: had to give a little bit because British put, you know,

748
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 2: put his shoulders down. And I thought British has got

749
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 2: a little something because there's some speed, some power. And

750
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 2: it was then when I thought, man, there's something they

751
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:47,040
Speaker 2: can do with this guy.

752
00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 1: And then he just continued to get better and better.

753
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 2: And that's why I loved Drew is that when Dimiko

754
00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:54,800
Speaker 2: and Nick talked about the competition in camp, they weren't

755
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 2: just blowing bluster. They were telling you, Yeah, we value

756
00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 2: guys that come to compete, and if they compete and

757
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 2: compete at a high level, they're going to be on

758
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 2: this team.

759
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 5: So Bratt, that's British Brooks. He's one end of the spectrum.

760
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 5: He was not drafted. Claws his way on gets a

761
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:12,960
Speaker 5: roster spot now on the other end of the spectrum,

762
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 5: because you bring up Harris Hits and I gobbled those up, read.

763
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 6: Every one of them, loved them. They're fantastic.

764
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,080
Speaker 5: Some days you'd have thirty eight notes about camp, some

765
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,719
Speaker 5: days you have like forty nine. It very depending on

766
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 5: basically how long the practice was and how physical the

767
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:32,799
Speaker 5: practice was. Without exception, every single day in practice, it

768
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:37,279
Speaker 5: seemed whether I was reading Harris Hits, whether I was

769
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:41,040
Speaker 5: checking Twitter, Derek Stingley Junior. On the other end of

770
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 5: the spectrum, as far as guys who he's third overall

771
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 5: pick in the draft, Derek Stingley Junior, it seemed like

772
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,919
Speaker 5: had to pick at least once twice per practice every

773
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 5: single day, regardless of who the quarterback was. And I

774
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,880
Speaker 5: think we can all agree that's a good quarterback roster.

775
00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 5: If you look at the starting quarterback who he is,

776
00:34:58,960 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 5: pretty damn good.

777
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,760
Speaker 6: Maybe an All Pro MVP candidate in CJ.

778
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:06,400
Speaker 5: Stroud, back up in Davis Mills, who's got what twenty

779
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,239
Speaker 5: sums starts under his belt. Still young, he played a

780
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 5: lot better and you wrote about him a lot in

781
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,840
Speaker 5: Harrison's on the good things he was doing. Case Keenum,

782
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:17,240
Speaker 5: he's played in the league since Moses was in short pants,

783
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 5: has a lot of experience.

784
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,240
Speaker 6: And then Tim Boyle he had some experience. Well, didn't matter.

785
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:24,279
Speaker 5: He was picking off each of those guys, you know,

786
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:29,239
Speaker 5: spinning the wheel. It's got me super excited because I

787
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,520
Speaker 5: know it's going to be good for this defense, whether

788
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,919
Speaker 5: guys actually on other teams throw at him or they

789
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 5: think I can't go to that side of the field,

790
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:42,400
Speaker 5: Let's go this way. Where do you see that going

791
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,320
Speaker 5: for him? How much action do you think Derek Stingley

792
00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:47,600
Speaker 5: is really going to get when he's in the game

793
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,480
Speaker 5: and they're lining up to throw. Do you think they

794
00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 5: stay away from it or do you think they're going

795
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:53,359
Speaker 5: to challenge him from time to time?

796
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 6: Where do you see that shaking out?

797
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 5: Because Dange John he was making a play every single practice,

798
00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:59,879
Speaker 5: if not two or three times four times a day.

799
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 4: Well, I think there are a couple of things that

800
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 4: come into play with this Drew Number one. You know

801
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:07,880
Speaker 4: what quarterback is on the other side, how bold is he?

802
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:12,080
Speaker 2: I think the other aspect that goes into it, right.

803
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 2: The other part is does does thing travel like he

804
00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:18,160
Speaker 2: did in the playoff game? And that can get tricky

805
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:21,719
Speaker 2: against certain teams because you know, like the Dolphins, they'll

806
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,400
Speaker 2: take Tyreek Hill and they'll put him in a slot

807
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:27,439
Speaker 2: and you think, okay, well we'll travel our corner with him,

808
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,360
Speaker 2: and then he takes fly motion, he goes outside and

809
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 2: now he's back outside like he would have been, and

810
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,399
Speaker 2: maybe that's changed your whole coverage structure because of how

811
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,440
Speaker 2: that motion kind of plays into it. So, I mean,

812
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,759
Speaker 2: that's getting really technical, But I think the point is

813
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 2: with Sting, if he travels, then he's traveling more than

814
00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 2: likely against the number one wide receiver more than likely.

815
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 2: So do you want to completely do you want to

816
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,799
Speaker 2: completely avoid your number one wide receiver? Or do you

817
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,160
Speaker 2: want to trust your number one wide receiver is maybe

818
00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:58,399
Speaker 2: going to get open and let's go against this guy.

819
00:36:58,480 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 4: Now.

820
00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,279
Speaker 2: Amari Cooper was also dealing with some foot issue or

821
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 2: whatever the case might be.

822
00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:03,680
Speaker 1: He was good enough to play that day. And so

823
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:04,640
Speaker 1: Sting just shut him down.

824
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 2: And I think that's a good matchup for Sting size wise, physicality.

825
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 2: You know, Tyreek is not a great matchup for anybody.

826
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,080
Speaker 2: But I think that's the other part to consider, is

827
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,359
Speaker 2: does Sting travel and how much? Because if he does,

828
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 2: then I think he will get challenged a little bit

829
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 2: because it is the number one guy in that Quarterbacks

830
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,720
Speaker 2: are like, I can't go away from my number one guy.

831
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 4: I've got to go to that guy. But for example

832
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:27,720
Speaker 4: the Bears.

833
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:29,759
Speaker 2: So we'll play the Bears week two, right, So it's

834
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 2: DJ Moore, there's Keen Allen's Roma Dune. Say, they've got

835
00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 2: a pretty solid threesome. So which one do you take away?

836
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,120
Speaker 2: Which one does Sting travel with? Well, in that case,

837
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,920
Speaker 2: Kayla Williams has got two other options that he feels

838
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:47,640
Speaker 2: pretty confident going to. So you may you may travel Sting,

839
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 2: you may not. But if you do travel and say

840
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:51,879
Speaker 2: we're gonna take it Sting and put him on DJ Moore,

841
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 2: well and all of a sudden, the Bears have other

842
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:56,640
Speaker 2: options to throw to when you play the Vikings. If

843
00:37:56,640 --> 00:38:00,440
Speaker 2: he travels with Justin Jefferson and Addison is not quite

844
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:02,799
Speaker 2: you know, he's still banged up, and there's no TJ.

845
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,680
Speaker 2: Hockinson because he went on pup all of a sudden.

846
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:09,160
Speaker 2: The Vikings might want to force it to Justin Jefferson

847
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 2: because they.

848
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 4: Don't have a lot of other options.

849
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,359
Speaker 2: So I think it will vary from week to week,

850
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:17,879
Speaker 2: but if you do test him, you're going to pay.

851
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:20,319
Speaker 2: And I think even the offense found that out. I mean,

852
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:22,840
Speaker 2: you know, Ohilo's a day in Ohio where he was

853
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,520
Speaker 2: in coverage on Nico Collins so beautifully. It was really

854
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:27,720
Speaker 2: a lot like the interception he had against the Giants.

855
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 2: He basically pinned the receiver to the sideline, the ball

856
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 2: is thrown and he knows he can go up and

857
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 2: get it, snatches it. Great interception and then as they

858
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:40,319
Speaker 2: did a two minute drill out route the tank and

859
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:42,239
Speaker 2: Sting Knwick knew it was coming. There's two things I've

860
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:46,320
Speaker 2: said about Staying he's got tremendous football IQ. He's incredibly smart,

861
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:48,480
Speaker 2: and he's got the best hands on the team. And

862
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:50,440
Speaker 2: it was all right there. So you saw that in

863
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 2: that practice and I thought he just got better from

864
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:52,720
Speaker 2: that practice.

865
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 1: It's been incredible, you know what.

866
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,880
Speaker 5: It reminded me of his training camp. It reminded me

867
00:38:56,920 --> 00:39:03,880
Speaker 5: of those early training camps twelve thirteen, fourteen fifteen with

868
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:07,360
Speaker 5: JJ Watt, And it reminded me of like fourteen fifteen

869
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:13,400
Speaker 5: DeAndre Hopkins when he was catching everything on everybody, you know,

870
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:18,000
Speaker 5: working for the website way back when well, we work

871
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,320
Speaker 5: for the Texans, but we do stuff on the website

872
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:22,439
Speaker 5: and there's a lot of people that have different hands.

873
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:28,160
Speaker 5: But Hopkins was just embarrassing defensive backs here in camp.

874
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:33,000
Speaker 5: He was catching everything, you know, doing gymnastics with one hand,

875
00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 5: toe tapping, getting in And there was one where he's

876
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 5: basically like scoring a touchdown and you see the defensive

877
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 5: back who's covering him, and the guy had fine coverage.

878
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 5: It's just he's going against an alien. You know, DeAndre

879
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 5: Hopkins is an alien in a good way. He was phenomenal,

880
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:53,720
Speaker 5: and word got back through some channels that the defensive

881
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:55,000
Speaker 5: back was saying, hey, why are you putting me on

882
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,520
Speaker 5: the front page of the website, you know, getting burned

883
00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:00,360
Speaker 5: like that. It's like, hey, dude, nobody cares about you.

884
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:02,879
Speaker 5: It's we're talking focusing on that guy. But people have

885
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:06,960
Speaker 5: people have some thing. So it's just my point is

886
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 5: what I just saw in training camp.

887
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,319
Speaker 6: Reminded me of what we.

888
00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:14,000
Speaker 5: Saw when those guys were doing what they did wat

889
00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:17,319
Speaker 5: Hopkins in training camp, and it was just opening your

890
00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:21,400
Speaker 5: eyes and just making you so danged impressed.

891
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 6: I don't know if you felt the same way.

892
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:27,359
Speaker 5: You're jaded or what, but man, everything I read from

893
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 5: you and everything I saw in the field, dang, this

894
00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:30,680
Speaker 5: could be something.

895
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:32,080
Speaker 6: This could really be something.

896
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:36,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's you know, watching him is pretty special. And

897
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,560
Speaker 2: Mark Marko confirmed the story back in twenty nineteen. If

898
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:43,200
Speaker 2: you remember, back in twenty nineteen, we really we were

899
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:47,600
Speaker 2: winning games, but defensively we wore some leaks there. There's

900
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 2: some leaks, yeah, and especially in the secondary. And I

901
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,120
Speaker 2: remember walking in one day to the studio and I

902
00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:55,000
Speaker 2: told Mark, I was like, man, if we had that

903
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 2: kid Stingley from.

904
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,600
Speaker 1: LSU, we'd be unstoppable. And I said that to him.

905
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:01,759
Speaker 1: He's like, he's a true freshman. I said, yeah, but

906
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:02,880
Speaker 1: he's special.

907
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:06,200
Speaker 2: Man, That dude is incredible and yeah, yeah, he kind

908
00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:08,680
Speaker 2: of kind of you know whatever, and I and I

909
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 2: kind of chuckled at it as well, but I was

910
00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:13,799
Speaker 2: I was being truthful because you could see it. You

911
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 2: could see it as early as then. Now, he ran

912
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:17,920
Speaker 2: into injury issues, and that, of course is always going

913
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 2: to be the question like, oh, if he stays healthy,

914
00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:24,960
Speaker 2: he stays healthy, and and that's That's the other thing too, Drew,

915
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:27,560
Speaker 2: is the fact that Sting doesn't.

916
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,880
Speaker 4: Just play the ball and play the pass like.

917
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,800
Speaker 2: He comes up in the run game and its physical

918
00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:35,480
Speaker 2: and takes on running backs and it's not afraid to

919
00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 2: hit and tackle. He is a really good force player

920
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 2: from the outside on the run. So that I think

921
00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:45,279
Speaker 2: also helps this defense is that you've got corners that

922
00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:48,160
Speaker 2: will come up and strike and make tackles and Sting

923
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 2: does that too. So you know, when you think about

924
00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 2: the best corners in the league, there are a few

925
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 2: of them that that's not part of their game. Now,

926
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,440
Speaker 2: Sauce does it. Sauce isn't afraid to be physical. And

927
00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 2: I know Sauce is the one that always he gets

928
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 2: compared to. But I think that this is the year

929
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:02,879
Speaker 2: where people step back and go whoa, whoa wa Wait

930
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:04,879
Speaker 2: a second. I mean, I've been saying it, so I'm

931
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 2: not scared to say it again. I said it, you know,

932
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:08,719
Speaker 2: probably a week or two in a training camp that

933
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:10,319
Speaker 2: I thought he was going to be the best corner

934
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:11,800
Speaker 2: of the league when it was all said and done,

935
00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:14,880
Speaker 2: and I think we're moving in that particular direction, so

936
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:17,840
Speaker 2: you know, we'll see I mean, look, he doesn't he

937
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:19,279
Speaker 2: doesn't have to be, but he just has to be

938
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:20,920
Speaker 2: the Derek's thing that we saw in training camp.

939
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,600
Speaker 5: If he's that guy, and if you're having that discussion

940
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:25,879
Speaker 5: of that argument, things are going well for your team.

941
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:27,880
Speaker 5: You know, it means you got means you got a

942
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,680
Speaker 5: hell of a player. So yeah, exactly just what I saw.

943
00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:32,520
Speaker 5: My goodness, it's what it reminded me of, was what

944
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:35,960
Speaker 5: in those early days when you hear thump, thump, thumb

945
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:37,360
Speaker 5: from him batting the ball down.

946
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,319
Speaker 6: Every third or fourth pass.

947
00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was pissing off the offensive coaches because they

948
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 5: couldn't get anything done. So yeah, needless to say, we're excited.

949
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 5: I mean, when we do this next week, you and

950
00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:53,200
Speaker 5: I are going to be previewing Week one at the Colts.

951
00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:55,480
Speaker 5: It's going to be a Donnybrook man. The way the

952
00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:57,640
Speaker 5: season ended last year, we all remember that. I was

953
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:00,279
Speaker 5: that was fun, but that was a good Colts that

954
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:01,759
Speaker 5: the Texans beat, and this is a good one they're

955
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 5: going to have to beat on the road for that

956
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:05,080
Speaker 5: to happen.

957
00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:06,480
Speaker 6: But dude, it's good to be back with you. I

958
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:07,400
Speaker 6: missed you. Brush.

959
00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,319
Speaker 1: This is good, it's a good. Yeah, there you go.

960
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:11,560
Speaker 6: He'll be great.

961
00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:15,200
Speaker 4: And how do they do it now at the Hardy.

962
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:16,440
Speaker 6: I kind of like that. My little kids do it

963
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:19,200
Speaker 6: to me, and I like that it's endearing. So yeah,

964
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 6: thank you Jeremy pay for popularizing that. This has been

965
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 6: Texans in the Lab.

966
00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:27,320
Speaker 2: Yes, it has been in the lab. Love doing the

967
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 2: podcast with Drew. We've got plenty of podcasts coming very

968
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:33,040
Speaker 2: very soon, but we will keep this one rocking and

969
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:36,080
Speaker 2: rolling as we always do. All Right, we get back.

970
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:39,160
Speaker 2: Let's go around the league. Something's happening on a weekend.

971
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:42,520
Speaker 2: Most teams keeping it quiet as it should be as

972
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 2: they go into Labor Day, uh and into the first

973
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:48,520
Speaker 2: work week of the regular season. But we'll hit whatever's

974
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:50,400
Speaker 2: new next right here in Texans All Access.

975
00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:50,959
Speaker 1: What's happened?

976
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:51,320
Speaker 4: Everybody?

977
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:53,280
Speaker 2: Welcome to this final segment of a Friday ed issue

978
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:55,880
Speaker 2: at Texans All Access from the Hoday.

979
00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 1: Texans Radio studio. Glad to be with you.

980
00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 2: I'm John Harris Football on US Sadline reporter for your

981
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 2: Houston Texanst's go around the NFL not a ton going on.

982
00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:06,319
Speaker 1: We did mention.

983
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,960
Speaker 2: I think it was on Thursday, So yesterday, yeah, I

984
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:13,560
Speaker 2: think it was yesterday. Brandon Ayuk finally gets a deal

985
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,600
Speaker 2: done with the Niners. I mean, so many receivers have

986
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:21,319
Speaker 2: gotten paid, including our own Nico Collins this offseason, but

987
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:25,520
Speaker 2: the Brandon Ayuk situation was turning into this mellow drama

988
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 2: and it was just crazy. In fact, earlier on Thursday,

989
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:31,480
Speaker 2: I think it was John Lynch, a GM for the

990
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:33,560
Speaker 2: forty nine ers, was like, he's got to play ball sometime.

991
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,760
Speaker 4: Well, now he's going to forty nine ers Ayuk.

992
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:39,880
Speaker 2: They agreed on a four year, one hundred and twenty

993
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:46,640
Speaker 2: million dollar extension. Was seventy six million dollars in guarantees. Now,

994
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:50,280
Speaker 2: when we were up in Pittsburgh, there was all kinds

995
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:53,440
Speaker 2: of rumors about Ayuk becoming a Pittsburgh Steeler.

996
00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:56,480
Speaker 4: Ayuk did not want to leave San Francisco.

997
00:44:57,400 --> 00:44:58,240
Speaker 1: He wanted the money.

998
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 2: Well they got him the money four years, thirty million

999
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 2: ap y one hundred and twenty million.

1000
00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:04,279
Speaker 1: Over those four.

1001
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 2: Years, Ayuk comes back to San Francisco and he is,

1002
00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:12,279
Speaker 2: I guess gonna be a happy campus. So now he's

1003
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:15,480
Speaker 2: paid Deebo Samuel. Samuel's paid. Ricky Piersol is the first

1004
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:17,520
Speaker 2: round ride receiver. They've got a threesome that is.

1005
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:20,000
Speaker 4: Going to be very, very difficult to deal with.

1006
00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:24,799
Speaker 2: Now it's on to Trent Williams for the forty nine ers.

1007
00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:30,920
Speaker 2: Speaking of contract extensions, Dak Prescott was asked about his

1008
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:36,080
Speaker 2: extension and it hasn't gotten done yet. He said, you

1009
00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:39,280
Speaker 2: know what, not really panicked about it. But then he said,

1010
00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:42,160
Speaker 2: and I quote, I think it says a lot if

1011
00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:45,400
Speaker 2: it is or if it isn't done by the start

1012
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:47,799
Speaker 2: of the season. The start of their season will be

1013
00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:50,799
Speaker 2: September eighth against the Cleveland Browns, so that'll be one

1014
00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:55,480
Speaker 2: game I normally cheer for NFC teams against AFC teams,

1015
00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:57,200
Speaker 2: be cheering for the Cowboys that day.

1016
00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:58,640
Speaker 1: I'm always I'm a Dak guy.

1017
00:45:58,680 --> 00:45:59,080
Speaker 4: I like that.

1018
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:00,319
Speaker 1: I hope that gets paid.

1019
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:03,839
Speaker 2: But this season will be the last of his four year,

1020
00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,360
Speaker 2: hundred and sixty million dollar contract that Dak signed in

1021
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:12,000
Speaker 2: twenty twenty one. So Dak really doesn't say a whole

1022
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:13,919
Speaker 2: lot when it comes to his contract. He's been very

1023
00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:19,880
Speaker 2: what's right way saying, he's been very reasonable. But he

1024
00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:23,080
Speaker 2: did say if it doesn't get done, it's probably a

1025
00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:24,520
Speaker 2: good idea about.

1026
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:25,560
Speaker 1: How people feel.

1027
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:27,799
Speaker 2: So we'll see what the Cowboys get done over the

1028
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:32,120
Speaker 2: next week or so with Dak Prescott. At least Brandon

1029
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,600
Speaker 2: and you got him got his deal. Now we'll see

1030
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:37,760
Speaker 2: about Dakh and Jamar Chase. Jamar Chase has not gotten

1031
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:40,839
Speaker 2: a deal and whether he gets back to practice at all.

1032
00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:44,840
Speaker 2: One player who did get a contract is Cameron Dicker.

1033
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:50,320
Speaker 2: Cameron Dicker, the kicker in San Diego aka Los Angeles

1034
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:53,200
Speaker 2: now because it's not San Diego anymore, multi year extension

1035
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:56,759
Speaker 2: for the former Texas Longhorned kicker. He got twenty two

1036
00:46:56,840 --> 00:47:00,240
Speaker 2: million over four years. If you can kick, you'll get paid.

1037
00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:05,440
Speaker 2: And that was proven with Cameron Dicker, the kicker formerly

1038
00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:07,800
Speaker 2: of the University of Texas, now of the LA Chargers.

1039
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:08,600
Speaker 1: All right, that's gonna do it.

1040
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:11,720
Speaker 2: A big thanks to Mark, to Drew, to Byron Backet

1041
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:13,520
Speaker 2: Studio as Portrayo six to ten, all of you.

1042
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 4: Enjoy your Labor Day weekend. We'll see you soon and

1043
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:17,320
Speaker 4: as always, go Texans.
