9
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:17,320
Speaker 1: How are you doing?

10
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 3: I'm doing well.

11
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:19,079
Speaker 1: Oh you doing well?

12
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,640
Speaker 3: Can I share a little bit about my injury situation?

13
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, so I've been kind of keeping people updated

14
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:26,520
Speaker 2: two degree. I didn't know how much you wanted to say,

15
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 2: but Mark Brookes collar bone, he was in for surgery

16
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,159
Speaker 2: and that's why you know, we crushed you. That's why

17
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,600
Speaker 2: I had McLain on the other day and that was great.

18
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 2: We had John. I had a good time. But it's

19
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 2: just not the same. So yes, I want you to

20
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 2: I want to share.

21
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 3: With the people what you've been going only because you

22
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,200
Speaker 3: get a little tiny sense and I mean tiny micro

23
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,519
Speaker 3: sensor of some stuff the players go through. And when

24
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,160
Speaker 3: they fix my collar bone, they put a plate in there,

25
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 3: and they said, we put the plate in because this

26
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:55,279
Speaker 3: way we know.

27
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: It'll heal right, not we think it'll hear right now.

28
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 3: I had to get the plate anyway, as they looked

29
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 3: at it because the bone wasn't meeting, you know, the

30
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 3: ends weren't meeting, and.

31
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: It was all splintered.

32
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 2: As it turned out, I had to be in there

33
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 2: a lot longer because they put it together like a

34
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 2: puzzle and then they put the plate.

35
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: Over the top. But it feels god, yeah, but then

36
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,199
Speaker 1: do the puzzle, then the plate.

37
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they're like, oh, at eight screws in there,

38
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 3: and they showed me the extra It looks like a

39
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 3: lawn rake, like one of those iron rakes that got

40
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,959
Speaker 3: straight across, and they just jammed it in there, and

41
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,119
Speaker 3: a little tiny one, but they jammed it in there,

42
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 3: and it feels like that too. No, it feels fine though,

43
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 3: because you know you're on the road to recovery. But

44
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 3: the point is this. It's a great way to repair

45
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 3: a broken bone because they go in and they do

46
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 3: it and it's fused. Now you know, it's tight. It

47
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 3: feels like somebody's grabbing onto it, like I'm not gonna

48
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 3: let it go for a few weeks here, but it

49
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 3: you know, it's on the right track.

50
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: And that's the thing. But I think about this.

51
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 3: They do this stuff because they want to make sure

52
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 3: the guys heal properly. You let the bone heel on it.

53
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 3: So is it shaky?

54
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 4: Is it not?

55
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 3: Now you have added reinforcement and the bone it's not

56
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 3: going to move in the initial stages while it heals.

57
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: So that's cool.

58
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 3: But man, that anesthesia I was under a lot longer

59
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 3: than they thought because they had to repair all the

60
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:09,519
Speaker 3: broken ends and whatever.

61
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 1: Ouch.

62
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 3: The recovery from that was an adventure. So everything passed that.

63
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 3: I feel like, give me the pain, I don't care.

64
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,799
Speaker 3: I feel better. I have no headache, I can hold

65
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 3: food down.

66
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 1: I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good.

67
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 3: So it's great to be doing some radio and getting

68
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 3: back to it today. Today's a busy day with a

69
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 3: lot of different stuff going on with training camp and

70
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,359
Speaker 3: what less than ten days.

71
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 2: Now, nine days from today, nine days, geez, nine day.

72
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 1: It felt like we were saying ninety days like yesterday.

73
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 3: I've got a bunch of different events this week and everything,

74
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 3: and it's all good because football's coming, and with the

75
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 3: World Cup ending, it's like, okay, come on, bring out

76
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 3: American football.

77
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:50,399
Speaker 2: Can we please get started with the pig skin. Let's go,

78
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 2: let's play our game.

79
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: It's coming.

80
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 2: You drive by on Kirby and you could see the

81
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 2: tents have gone up for training camp.

82
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: Yep. Then the player's family tent.

83
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 2: I can't remember what they call that, but the player's

84
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 2: family tent, which is at basically just above us where

85
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 2: we're going to be situated in the end zone, that's

86
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 2: gone up.

87
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: So they've been doing that.

88
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 2: And then as I walked in this morning, I saw

89
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 2: the t and then the little logo and.

90
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 1: Then st of Reliant Stadium. But it looked like toast.

91
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 3: Oh so they're putting it like they're building from the

92
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 3: middle out.

93
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: I guess it seemed like that. Well, way to make

94
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: sure you.

95
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 2: Get the middle right, get the middle right side, I

96
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 2: guess how you tile to maybe, yeah, because if you

97
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: go from left to right, like, oh my gosh, we

98
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 2: got all all the way to the end and it's

99
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 2: all screwed up.

100
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't know, but I just looked up there

101
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: and went and.

102
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 3: Because even yesterday watching the final of the World Cup,

103
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 3: we're at New York New Jersey Stadium, so like, you know,

104
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 3: just call it New Jersey Stadium because that's where you are.

105
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,040
Speaker 3: You know, why do we have to pretend when we

106
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 3: have the World Cup and you have these generic names

107
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 3: on the stadiums. We are Houston Stadium, but i.

108
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: FIFA asked for it and they got it New York,

109
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: New Jersey. It's New Jersey, yeah, and Jersey. My father

110
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: in law was around.

111
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 3: He's like, well, the New York Giants play there, and

112
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 3: then we just call it New York. I'm like, yeah,

113
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 3: they're the New Jersey Giants. Yeah, they are in the Jersey. Yeah,

114
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 3: both play in Jersey. Buffalo is the only true New

115
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 3: York team.

116
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 2: There are a lot of people complaining about access to MetLife.

117
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 1: Oh did you see the people walking across the highway? No?

118
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,559
Speaker 3: No, yeah, there's a video because some and it wasn't

119
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 3: that many fans, But you park and how do we

120
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 3: get there? Now they found parking somewhere nearby. They just

121
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,479
Speaker 3: started walking to it. You can't walk to the Meadowlands

122
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 3: on the Strip. Exit's sixteen W off the New Jersey Turnpike.

123
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 3: I'll never forget, so you can't walk there. It's a

124
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 3: terrible place to get to, even though it's right there.

125
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 3: I mean, you could see Manhattan from the stadium. That's

126
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 3: another thing they screwed up about that state, Johnny. They

127
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 3: should have an open end or open it up where

128
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,359
Speaker 3: you can see some buildings out from one of the

129
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 3: angles right from You can't see it from every angle,

130
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 3: but from one of the angles, maybe the press box

131
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 3: you can see New York skyline.

132
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: That'd be cool. Yeah, absolutely.

133
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 3: Intead, it's a big bowl, and I get it, you

134
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 3: want to fit as many people as possible. But they

135
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 3: could have done anything and they didn't do it.

136
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:24,359
Speaker 1: That environment yesterday was pretty damn amazing. It was. It

137
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 1: was wild. I mean, Spain, Argentina, I mean, it.

138
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 2: Was really lot of criticism about the broadcast though. Yeah,

139
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 2: well I'll tell you what. Here's one of the things

140
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 2: that I heard. I heard them discussing at some point

141
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 2: and I've heard this was they there was there was

142
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 2: something that happened. Was there was a play that Stu

143
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 2: Holden wanted to see again. But I remember him saying,

144
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 2: well the video for we get if we get a

145
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 2: replay of that.

146
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,359
Speaker 1: I was like what I was like when we do

147
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:53,480
Speaker 1: our TV broadcast.

148
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 2: Dave Keeney, our producer on preseason games, and then other

149
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 2: producers I've had to do in college games, they're always like, look,

150
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,160
Speaker 2: get on a talkback button if you want to see something,

151
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,160
Speaker 2: we'll get it for you, but the feed was coming

152
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 2: from some other location that was not Fox, so they

153
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 2: had no control over whether they could get a replay

154
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 2: or not.

155
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 3: Which is crazy. I was like, what before people overreact.

156
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 3: The viewership around the world is whatever x times whatever

157
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 3: it is watching in the US, right, so yeah, you

158
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 3: have many more viewers globally than you do nationally, even

159
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 3: though Fox, well this is Fox, We're in America. No,

160
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 3: it's not that this is the World Cup.

161
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 4: Fox.

162
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, they don't control the feed, but they should replay everything.

163
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 3: And then I saw a glitch where I saw the

164
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 3: screen kind of freeze up and have all these weird

165
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,480
Speaker 3: images just for a split second. But if that happens

166
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,359
Speaker 3: in one of our preseason TV broadcasts.

167
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 1: I freak out. I know what happened.

168
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:52,159
Speaker 3: Yes, I know, so this was unacceptable to me. But

169
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 3: the other thing was this, and they do have control

170
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 3: over this because whoever's handling the feed for Fox, they

171
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 3: have audio of the crowd noise, and the announcers would

172
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 3: lay out for long periods of time, which is fine,

173
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 3: it's soccer.

174
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 1: You do that. You want to let the.

175
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 2: Crowd breathe, but the crowd wasn't loud enough. You got

176
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 2: to turn up the crowd when you got to lay out.

177
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 2: You know, I have really good sound at my house.

178
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 3: When I watched sporting events, I got the bar, I

179
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 3: got everything, and I'm thinking, man, if you lay out,

180
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 3: the crowd's got to be a lot louder, because I

181
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 3: know they're a loud but I don't hear it. I

182
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 3: don't feel it in my living room. But all that

183
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 3: being said, I mean, what a tremendous World Cup overall.

184
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 3: I know yesterday was a stinker with zero zero, but

185
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 3: there was a lot of action for zero zero, a

186
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 3: lot of scoring chances for Spain Spain, I mean, out

187
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 3: of opportunities.

188
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: The Texas defense showed up wearing Spain uniforms.

189
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 3: I mean they were they were tight, yes, and made.

190
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: Life very difficult. One goal the entire World Cup. They

191
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 1: gave up one. That's crazy, freaking goal the entire well.

192
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 3: That goes to show you all we need is one

193
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 3: goal on offense and we should be able to get.

194
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 2: To the Super Bowl. Oh there's a lesson there. There's

195
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 2: definitely a less Just.

196
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 1: Don't give it to him.

197
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 2: It was a I mean the games, the matches themselves,

198
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 2: I mean the Argentina come back against England just created

199
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 2: such vitriol, especially in England. You know the game yesterday,

200
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 2: Spain seemingly dominated. It was glad Spain won. I really

201
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 2: have a dog in a fight in that one.

202
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 1: Uh.

203
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 2: Rodri is one of my favorite players because he plays

204
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 2: for Man City, So I love Rodriy and he's he's

205
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 2: he's one of those guys.

206
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 1: And it's it's hard in an NFL game to.

207
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 2: Say, Okay, a defensive player controls the action. But we're

208
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:37,440
Speaker 2: getting really really close with Will Anderson Junior in that realm,

209
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 2: and Rodrie is one of those guys who kind of

210
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 2: as a defender kind of controls all the action. He

211
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 2: makes sure nobody scores and then he makes sure he

212
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 2: gets the ball out to the right people, sets it up,

213
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 2: He sets up everything. I mean, he's just it's a

214
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 2: different game.

215
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: You get.

216
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 2: He's like a talented Josh Hart. You know, Josh Hart

217
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 2: for the Knicks does a little bit of everything. He's like,

218
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't mean to imply Josh Hart

219
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 2: it's not talented, but I mean Roger's on a different level.

220
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 3: Well. Basketball back in the old old days with Bill

221
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 3: Russell and the outlet passes and being able to set

222
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:11,679
Speaker 3: up teammates, being able to set it up on the

223
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,320
Speaker 3: offensive end. There's no real equivalent for football. We know

224
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 3: that because you switch platoons offense defense. But your defense

225
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 3: on this team and many others, but on this team,

226
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,440
Speaker 3: maybe not many. Several sets it up for your offense.

227
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 3: And Johnny, that's what they got to get to this year.

228
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 3: Just know who you are. Yeah, know who you are.

229
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 3: Play the way you played down the stretch last year.

230
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 3: Don't turn it over, score as and when you can,

231
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 3: and let the defense eat. That's what we should be

232
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 3: doing here in Houston, and I think that's what the

233
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 3: plan is.

234
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 1: I do I agree with you on that.

235
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 2: I do think that ends up being what the plan

236
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,199
Speaker 2: should be, especially with the defense at that point, I think,

237
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,959
Speaker 2: what but you know, fans don't want to hear that.

238
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 2: Fans want to hear well, you know, we want to

239
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 2: be good in all phases, and sure, we want to

240
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,440
Speaker 2: be good in all phases. But I think if it

241
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 2: can be to a point where, look, we get into

242
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 2: a game, the defense, the defense dominates a game. Hey, look, offense,

243
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 2: we need seventeen points today. But what I'd like to

244
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 2: be able to see is the offense get to a

245
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 2: point where you know what they're effective in doing the

246
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 2: things they need to And what I mean by that

247
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:27,079
Speaker 2: is last year, second game of the year, playing Tampa Bay,

248
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 2: got the ball down in the one yard line, didn't score. Yeah,

249
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 2: multiple times. You got to be able to do Denver

250
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 2: got the ball down to the two yard line, couldn't score.

251
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 2: I don't need for this offense to be the greatest

252
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 2: show on turf. In fact, was that that NFL film

253
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:45,320
Speaker 2: show was on the other day and I was watching it.

254
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: Was like ridiculous. Dang, these guys were unbelievable. You don't

255
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 1: need to be like that.

256
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 2: You don't need to have you know, four All Pro

257
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 2: wide receivers or an All Pro running back or you know,

258
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame quarterback.

259
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: But what you have to be able to do is

260
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 1: capitalize in the red.

261
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 2: Zone, what touchdowns, not turn the ball over, and know

262
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:10,839
Speaker 2: what your identity is offensively, and look that might in

263
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:15,559
Speaker 2: time that might change your your identity offensively may change.

264
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 1: You may go in and I I always go back.

265
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: I go back to this.

266
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 2: You know, Nick Cayley worked for Sean McVay and I

267
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,719
Speaker 2: remember hearing a podcast Jordan Rodrige, who writes for The

268
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 2: Athletic just brilliant. She did a podcast with Shanahan McVeigh, Lafleur,

269
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 2: Matt Floor and now the offense coordinator, why am I

270
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 2: drawing a black McDaniels, well off the cordinator, Mike mc dams.

271
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 1: So they she did a podcast for all of them.

272
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 2: And I remember hearing Sean McVay say, when I left

273
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 2: Washington to go to the RAMS, I had in my

274
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 2: mind what I what I wanted the Rams offense to be.

275
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 2: And then I got out there and I had Cooper

276
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:03,439
Speaker 2: Cup and I had Robert Woods, and it changed what

277
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 2: I wanted to do out of certain personnel groupings, and

278
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:08,199
Speaker 2: we became kind.

279
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: Of an eleven and a half.

280
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 2: Team because they were so good blocking it almost felt

281
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 2: like you had an extra tight end out there.

282
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 1: And so he said.

283
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 2: Their presence changed the offense of what he thought it

284
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:22,559
Speaker 2: was going to be and what the identity team was

285
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 2: going to be. And then last year, what'd you see

286
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,599
Speaker 2: from McVeigh the fact that they won a lot of

287
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 2: thirteen personnel. They went to a lot of three ten ends, right,

288
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 2: and so they didn't have to play Puka and Nevada

289
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 2: at the same time, they could kind of keep one

290
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 2: fresh one on the field. Three tight ends. They ran

291
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 2: a lot of three tight ends. They had very athletic

292
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 2: group of three tight ends. And then also the leagues

293
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 2: looking at it, going hey, who we kind of like that.

294
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,320
Speaker 2: So my point in that is you can have an

295
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:48,959
Speaker 2: identity of what you want the offense to be.

296
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:50,199
Speaker 1: These are non negotiables.

297
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,439
Speaker 2: If we sat down and said these are non negotiables

298
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 2: for the offense, it would be don't turn the ball over,

299
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 2: physicals all get out, and be able to run the

300
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 2: ball in some way, shape or form. Whether that's with

301
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 2: gap scheme runs or whether that's with zone runs. But

302
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 2: you've got to be able to run the football. You

303
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 2: do those three things, that can be your identity. Now

304
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 2: as you go through the season, you might become a

305
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 2: little bit more of a play action team because you

306
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 2: are running the ball as well as you know, maybe

307
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,839
Speaker 2: through the first seven eight games. But have an identity offensively,

308
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 2: something that you can always go back to when things

309
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 2: start getting tough. But I don't need you to go

310
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 2: score thirty to thirty five every game. Well, how what

311
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:26,920
Speaker 2: I do need you to do is you get inside

312
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 2: a five yard line. You gotta be touched. You got

313
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 2: to convert. You gotta convert, and you got to be

314
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 2: able to run the ball. Look, no one's expecting you

315
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 2: to steamroll everybody. But run the ball a whole lot

316
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 2: better in the red zone and run it when you

317
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 2: want to.

318
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's goal to go right. Let's hand off and

319
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 3: get four or five yards right. And now it's third

320
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 3: and one or a third and goal at the one.

321
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 3: All right, let's we have multiple ways to punch it this.

322
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 3: We could do CJ, we could do you know, just.

323
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: Pound it in there.

324
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 3: Sure the defense has to be on guard for everything.

325
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 3: So easier said than don I know.

326
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 1: But you're right.

327
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 3: Not turn the ball over doesn't mean you're hyper conservative either.

328
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 3: It just means that you take care of the football,

329
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 3: You pick your spots, and who knows what happens with

330
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 3: this defense this year. I don't want to see injuries.

331
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 3: Knock would knock anything. I don't want to see a

332
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 3: drop off in caliber of play. I don't think we

333
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 3: see that we have healthy people. This thing is going

334
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 3: to be good for a long time. But you just

335
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 3: don't know how the year is going to play out.

336
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 3: I look at the schedule, I look at the AFC landscape.

337
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 3: You just have to find a way to get to

338
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 3: twelve wins again, eleven, twelve, thirteen, get in that number,

339
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 3: preferably have it where you can play Week two at home.

340
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 3: I mean that to me as we look at this

341
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 3: season basically here on the eve week of training camp,

342
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 3: that's got to be a battle cry. And as I

343
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 3: say that, you know, Demiko is going to be battle

344
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 3: cry as we have a good practice Day one and

345
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 3: get ready for the Bills.

346
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 1: That's it. That's the battle cry.

347
00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 3: Well, but to me, play that second game at home

348
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 3: somehow someway out the top seed. If you can find

349
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 3: a way to eke out that division round game on

350
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 3: a home slate, now you've got something cooking.

351
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 2: Well along those lines, I was on with our buddy

352
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 2: socapat show and Matt I think it's Matt Bove and

353
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 2: he's the ABC Sports anchor. He's Greg Bailey, a Buffalo,

354
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 2: and so they do a podcast talking Bills football, and

355
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 2: obviously they're asking a lot of stuff about the first

356
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 2: game in Houston and all that kind of stuff. As

357
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 2: I talked to them, it was amazing to hear how

358
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 2: much of an impact this building has.

359
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 1: On not only the Bills, but just other teams too.

360
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 2: But they're talking from their perspective and they're like, this

361
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 2: place rocks. It is very difficult to play in this

362
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 2: place because of how loud it is. And they just

363
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 2: went on they're talking about, you know, the fans, and

364
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 2: their thought was kind of like ours, you know, like,

365
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 2: all right, we get Josh, all we get the bills,

366
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 2: all right, let's rip the band it off.

367
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 1: They kind of felt the same way.

368
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 2: They've had not a lot of success here and then

369
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 2: on top of that, they're coming here for week one

370
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 2: when you want to get off to a good start,

371
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 2: and in their words, you got to come play in

372
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 2: this building, this building to your point about getting to

373
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 2: that week two in the playoffs, getting that divisional playoff round,

374
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 2: playing it in this building. It matters so much because

375
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 2: this building has such an impact on a pon.

376
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: And no one can take anything for granted.

377
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 3: You know how hard it is to get Houston fans

378
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 3: to show up for team introductions.

379
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 4: That's right.

380
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 3: This has got to be the focus. And I know

381
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 3: the business side of the building and football ops is

382
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 3: hand in hand with this. They want to see that done.

383
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 3: I mean, this is you want to promote anything, promote

384
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:54,239
Speaker 3: that get in your seats at eleven forty five am

385
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 3: on opening day and we will rock this place. And

386
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 3: it's really important. You can't take it for grant that

387
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 3: you're gonna give Josh Allen terrors again. You can't take

388
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,639
Speaker 3: that for granted because as this has been a house

389
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 3: of horrors for Alan, remember that each of the last

390
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,359
Speaker 3: two games had to come down to the wire and

391
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,959
Speaker 3: you had to play perfectly perfectly to win these two games.

392
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 1: Yeah.

393
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 3: Oh, you beat the daylights out of Josh Allen. He's

394
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,200
Speaker 3: one throwaway from beating you in each of those games.

395
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 2: Even in the game he was nine for thirty and

396
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,639
Speaker 2: the other game he was sacked eight times.

397
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he still almost got you.

398
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 2: Yes, he's still Also look at the you know, we

399
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,359
Speaker 2: look at half full, we're like ninety percent full with

400
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 2: Oh we own Josh Allen in this building. Oh yeah,

401
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,160
Speaker 2: he was horrible and he still had a great shot

402
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,679
Speaker 2: at the end. Thank you Kaylen Kylen Bullock for picking

403
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,200
Speaker 2: that off at that day. Holy cow, I mean there

404
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,120
Speaker 2: was pressure on that play too, So thank you, Tom

405
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 2: se Yeah, and we did in Front seven rankings and

406
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 2: they ranked the Texans number one. Somebody at morn sharp

407
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:57,160
Speaker 2: one of these guys.

408
00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, head Texas. Yeah, I saw it. He had number one.

409
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 3: What I noticed is, let's see, I think we're the

410
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,640
Speaker 3: only we don't play anybody else in the top five

411
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 3: of that I thought, I think two or three in

412
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 3: the top ten of the front sevens, which is nice

413
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 3: because we're just talking.

414
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:14,639
Speaker 1: About the offense.

415
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 2: I want to play bottom five front sevens all day

416
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,120
Speaker 2: long if you can, with the offense versus defense.

417
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 1: But it is what it is. Yeah, it definitely is

418
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 1: what it is.

419
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 4: Now.

420
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: You mentioned it earlier about defense. One of the things that.

421
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 2: Oh, before I get there, Sewn and Seth were talking

422
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:33,199
Speaker 2: this morning. Cole Thompson was in with them, but they

423
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 2: were talking about the first four games, and I think

424
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,640
Speaker 2: it kind of came up organically about the fact that, well,

425
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 2: you know, want to be three and one through the

426
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:40,880
Speaker 2: first four.

427
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:42,360
Speaker 1: Now a reminder, the first four.

428
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 2: Games are home Buffalo home Bengals at Indy home Dallas.

429
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:56,160
Speaker 2: And I completely understand the conundrum because they said, if

430
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,200
Speaker 2: you what's the one if you're three and one, what's

431
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,880
Speaker 2: the one that you'll take that you would take.

432
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:02,399
Speaker 1: As a loss?

433
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:06,600
Speaker 2: And and I can tell you what it's not, Well,

434
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 2: not week three I'm not taking week three.

435
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 1: That's what Sean said.

436
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:14,920
Speaker 3: Sean did not give me week four because I don't

437
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:16,919
Speaker 3: want to live with that one. Now, look in the

438
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 3: context of the season, week four you just deal with it, right, Well,

439
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 3: not only that's Dallas by the way, folks.

440
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, Dallas is Week four and it's an NFC team.

441
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:28,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, so that actually is the one because should be

442
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:28,640
Speaker 2: the one.

443
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,680
Speaker 3: You've got Bill's Bengals. Those are two contenders, and you've

444
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:35,600
Speaker 3: got your division nemesis. So if you say, well, which

445
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 3: one are you quote willing to lose? Not that it's

446
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 3: up to us. Okay, it's July. We talk about these things. Yeah,

447
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 3: that would be the one. But Johnny, that's twenty fifth

448
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,200
Speaker 3: anniversary Celibra the Cowboys.

449
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,679
Speaker 1: I know it was really me the freaking Cowboys because.

450
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,919
Speaker 2: When you think about it, if you're thinking about, you know,

451
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 2: the bigger picture, they're you very well could be in

452
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 2: contention like you were last year with Buffalo in particular,

453
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 2: and you had the tiebreaker so you finished ahead of them.

454
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 2: So you went to Pittsburgh. Well, they went to Jacksonville.

455
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,399
Speaker 2: That was a more difficult game than going to Jacksonville.

456
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 2: They're us having to go to Pittsburgh point so you

457
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 2: can be in playoff contention with both and Cincinnati. I

458
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 2: don't know so happy I am about going to Jacksonville

459
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,160
Speaker 2: the play I mean, look, we were talking about the time. Yeah,

460
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:17,760
Speaker 2: we'll take Jacksonville all day long there.

461
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 3: But still, you know, your first ever road week one

462
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 3: of the playoffs, playoff game, right, and you got to

463
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 3: go to Jacksonville and I know everything. You had to

464
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 3: beat them, and you lost to them the other matchup

465
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,639
Speaker 3: down there in Jacksonville. You're right going to Pittsburgh. Not

466
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 3: that that was easy, but it was seven to six

467
00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 3: on the fourth quarter.

468
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 2: Listen, I'm not gonna say it's easy, but that, to me,

469
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,679
Speaker 2: that was what I wanted the Steelers. I felt like

470
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,439
Speaker 2: Jacksonville the way the offense is playing Jacksonville. By the way,

471
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,919
Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence number sixty two on the top one hundred,

472
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:54,399
Speaker 2: so that shows you that he's got you got some

473
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:55,119
Speaker 2: respect from.

474
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 1: The players from that standpoint.

475
00:20:56,520 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 2: But that that to me made Dallas like no doubt

476
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:04,440
Speaker 2: or and yet people speaking emotionally like you.

477
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 1: Just did yes, and that's what you can't do.

478
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 2: You'd rather have a loss to an NFC team as

479
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 2: opposed to any of the three AFC teams that you

480
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 2: could be in either a the AFC South Championship contention

481
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 2: or be just the AFC seating situation. Can you imagine

482
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 2: this city if it's four and oh oh god? All right,

483
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 2: you beat those two contenders, you go beat Indy, thank you,

484
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 2: and then you come back and you beat Dallas.

485
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 1: Now what you can't have after that? Tennessee, So I

486
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:37,880
Speaker 1: finished quarterback.

487
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 2: I don't know if you if you had a chance,

488
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:44,360
Speaker 2: I'm on episode two. Uh oh okay, it's good. I'm

489
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 2: telling you right now, we all in the AFC South

490
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,160
Speaker 2: need to get our licks in now. And the Titans

491
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 2: cause it's coming. Yeah, that day is gonna turn. Cam

492
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,679
Speaker 2: Ward is gonna turn that thing around. He and Dable

493
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,880
Speaker 2: if they can just get to be on the same page. Now,

494
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 2: what I think could hold cam back is there does

495
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 2: It's not to the Jackson Dart level, but sometimes there's

496
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:07,360
Speaker 2: some yolo ball where.

497
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,160
Speaker 1: It's like you only live once. I'm gonna make this throw.

498
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,679
Speaker 1: But he is so supremely confident.

499
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you need that and tough because remember in

500
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,359
Speaker 3: the Denver game opening week, they are in range for

501
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 3: a fifty six yard field goal that would take the lead.

502
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,400
Speaker 3: And we're in Denver, so that's like forty eight everywhere else,

503
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 3: right or whatever it would be. So he's talking to

504
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 3: Callahan and Callahan's like before he goes out there, he's like,

505
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 3: he's like, don't worry, coach, I won't take a sack.

506
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 3: I won't take a sec don't worry. And he takes

507
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 3: a set tae. Now it was a bull rush. I mean,

508
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 3: they really got into the backfield fast. But you got

509
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:43,400
Speaker 3: to know what's coming.

510
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:43,920
Speaker 4: That's right.

511
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:45,960
Speaker 3: And then Campbell's talking to him on the bench or

512
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:47,879
Speaker 3: a Callahan rather, it's talking to him on the bench,

513
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 3: and you know it was he said the right things.

514
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 3: He's trying to talk him up. He's like, listen, that'll

515
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 3: never happen again. You'll you'll learn from this. It's awesome.

516
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 3: You're gonna be great. Blah blah blah. It had to

517
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,399
Speaker 3: be killing the coach that is.

518
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 2: QB just coughed it up because Denver goes down stas

519
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 2: I told him, hey, don't take a sack.

520
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 3: But ball's got to be out quick. You got to

521
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:09,879
Speaker 3: remind him of some other things.

522
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 1: That dude is made the right stuff.

523
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,679
Speaker 2: So that's week five at their place on top of

524
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,320
Speaker 2: the fact that you go to London the.

525
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 1: Week after that. So, man, the whole thing is just

526
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,719
Speaker 1: sounding it is, you know, it's we talk about this

527
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 1: all the time.

528
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 2: How exciting that we get so excited to go, Okay,

529
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 2: what's the schedule, what's schedule, what's schedule? And then we

530
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,679
Speaker 2: see the schedule and immediately our eyes went south to

531
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:32,720
Speaker 2: the back half.

532
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 1: Then we went back up and went, okay, oh cool,

533
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 1: we get.

534
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 2: Three out of oh god, yeah, three out of.

535
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 1: Four Cinci in Dallas, Yeah, holy Dallas. Okay.

536
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 3: The media, the external media, National Guys, Bill's contender, Bengals contender,

537
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:54,399
Speaker 3: and that might be overinflated. But Dexter Lawrence, I in

538
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:59,200
Speaker 3: that quarterback show with Jaydeon Daniels talking with dex Hey.

539
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 2: Dex what did I ever do you?

540
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 3: We got Campbell's soup because they're both in the commercial again. Yeah,

541
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 3: but so Dexter Lawrence now with the Bengals and that

542
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 3: could be a problem, I get it. But contender contender, Colts,

543
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 3: solid team division, anything can happen. It's the Colts. I'll

544
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 3: never overlook them. And then Dallas contender. According to the National.

545
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 2: Media, National media is saying Dallas is the contender.

546
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 3: And you could be listening right now saying whatever you

547
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:30,160
Speaker 3: want to say about Dallas. The quote experts call them

548
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 3: a contender. So you got three out of four contenders

549
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,320
Speaker 3: to start the season. Now they're all at home, which

550
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,879
Speaker 3: is good. And you're a contender too, And this is

551
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:38,520
Speaker 3: to your point.

552
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:39,199
Speaker 1: You got to play it.

553
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 2: Get in there at eleven forty five and be ready

554
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,440
Speaker 2: to rocket noon because the team is going to need it.

555
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,960
Speaker 2: Those are three. Now it's it's Buffalo cincion Dallas. So yeah,

556
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,800
Speaker 2: I want to mad, especially Dallas unless you're fighting in

557
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 2: the parking lot, which has happened before at a Texans

558
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:57,000
Speaker 2: Cowboys game. Get in there, get in the building, and

559
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 2: let's get a win.

560
00:24:57,920 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 1: Guy.

561
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,160
Speaker 2: That's Sunday night game at twenty eighteen. Just thinking Mac

562
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 2: Suge that the tension in the building that night was

563
00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 2: it was so exciting to be there and yet it

564
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:14,919
Speaker 2: was like every play was grabbing things next to you, like,

565
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 2: oh my, I've never seen guys. That was the most

566
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:22,160
Speaker 2: physical football game I've ever seen. Yeah, they beat the

567
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 2: hell out of one. That's the Hopspins game.

568
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 4: Yep.

569
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,920
Speaker 3: Fair Baron wins it with the field goal at the.

570
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:31,120
Speaker 2: End Vanderh hitting to Sean like three times as Sean

571
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 2: was running for the end zone. I'll then forget Sean

572
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 2: was running for the end zone and Sean could run

573
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 2: and vander Ash came out of nowhere and put his

574
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 2: helmet right in his rib cage.

575
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 3: Did that start the That started it? Jacksonville on a bus?

576
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 3: That started Jackson on a bus?

577
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 2: Well, that started Jackson duskas The next week was Buffalo

578
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 2: and Josh Allen.

579
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was taking his young Josh Allen.

580
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:56,439
Speaker 2: He had that big he didn't practice all week and

581
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 2: Sean had that big old pad covering and then it

582
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 2: was like, well, what the hell are we gonna do

583
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 2: about flying to Jackson was like, no, We're taking.

584
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 3: A bus yep, take a bus, Okay, well bus. You

585
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:09,680
Speaker 3: know he put himself in harm's way, but.

586
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:10,679
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. What it is.

587
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 2: It was over by me and he was diving for

588
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,639
Speaker 2: the end zone, so he was fully exposed and vander

589
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 2: Ash vanner Ash ran like four or five and was

590
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 2: just full on dead sprint, not gonna let him in

591
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,679
Speaker 2: the end zone. And you know it was Deshaun diving

592
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:30,119
Speaker 2: and vander Ash purpendicular. I'm bag and DeShawn was not

593
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 2: perpendicular after that hit, and he took a couple of

594
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 2: them like that night.

595
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:39,479
Speaker 3: You're gonna have Prescott Pickens lamb here against these guys.

596
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 2: So, yes, the first time we'll have seen Dak since then? Right, no, no, no, no,

597
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 2: we saw Dak in twenty No.

598
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 3: We saw him in twenty twenty two. Yes, twenty two.

599
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 2: I forgot about that up there, Dalton Schultz said, last

600
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 2: two minute drive. So I know people talking with their

601
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 2: emotions saying, oh, we can't lose, and look, trust me,

602
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 2: trust me, I get it.

603
00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 1: I totally get it.

604
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:00,400
Speaker 2: But if you were gonna be three and on through

605
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 2: the first four, it's the Dallas game.

606
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 1: Those AFC games you do not you do not want

607
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:06,160
Speaker 1: to lose.

608
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,439
Speaker 2: If you're thinking big picture, you do not want to

609
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:10,439
Speaker 2: you do not want to lose those.

610
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 3: You know how this plays out, you always end up

611
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 3: losing one. That that's right, you have no business losing,

612
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 3: or win one hopefully that you have no business winning.

613
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 3: Although this team is business winning every game because you

614
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,200
Speaker 3: should not be outmatched by anybody on this schedule.

615
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:28,720
Speaker 2: So the four quarterbacks in quarterback Jaden Daniels, Joe Flacco,

616
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield, cam Ward and Sean has an interesting exercise.

617
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 2: He goes through and he talks about who he likes

618
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 2: more or you know, how they have an impact on

619
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,160
Speaker 2: him and Baker. Baker's really had an impact on him.

620
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 2: He's only through three episodes.

621
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:47,119
Speaker 3: Flacco is interesting though perspective. Yes, I like when he's

622
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,719
Speaker 3: talking about the trophies. The trophies and the ring they

623
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 3: don't mean much. He's talking about the actual thing, not

624
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:54,879
Speaker 3: the accomplishments themselves.

625
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,159
Speaker 1: Or what he went through to get or what the

626
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:57,560
Speaker 1: team went through to get exactly.

627
00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,880
Speaker 3: It's all about the experience and it's a good lesson

628
00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:03,440
Speaker 3: to life. These trophies themselves, what do they really mean.

629
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,639
Speaker 3: It's a symbol. It's what you did with the people

630
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,360
Speaker 3: you did it with. That's what really matters.

631
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 2: He's got his Corvette that he won, and I remember

632
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:14,879
Speaker 2: they had him miked up for that Super Bowl.

633
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,119
Speaker 1: And if you remember in that Super Bowl it was

634
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 1: twenty twelve season.

635
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 2: They played it in New Orleans and they're kicking San

636
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 2: Francisco up and down a field.

637
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 1: They're dominating. The lights go out.

638
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,199
Speaker 2: Kobe has the touchdown and the lights go out and

639
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 2: he's on the sideline.

640
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,119
Speaker 1: Hey why did the clock stop? And al sudden then

641
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 1: everything stopped.

642
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 2: They eventually get it back and that was enough to

643
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 2: get San Francisco back in the game. And San Francisco

644
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 2: was driving for a potential game when he touchdown and

645
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 2: you'll get it.

646
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: So Joe's miked up that whole game.

647
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 2: And so at the end, I guess one of the

648
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 2: PR Raven's PR people comes over says that's yours, and

649
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 2: he points over.

650
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 1: He goes, I get a car. He's like.

651
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 2: So he's so like Babe in the woods about it.

652
00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 2: He's like, I get a car. And then you can

653
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 2: see that I get a car. Look and it's this

654
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 2: Corvette and so has it. I don't know if you've

655
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 2: seen it. I can't remember when it pops up. It's

656
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 2: in a garage. They live in New Jersey. It's like

657
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 2: it's in a garag.

658
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:15,280
Speaker 1: It's just been sitting there. Probably wouldn't start up if

659
00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 1: you need it.

660
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 2: And he's just like, yeah, you know, I still got it,

661
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 2: but I won't get rid of it.

662
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 1: But it's out of here.

663
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 2: I mean, he was Flacco and his his perspective on

664
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 2: things really like that's I knew. I knew I'd like

665
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 2: I've always liked Baker. I think I told the story

666
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 2: last week about my buddy.

667
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:36,320
Speaker 4: TJ.

668
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:37,960
Speaker 1: Reeves is silent reporter for the Bucks.

669
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:42,280
Speaker 2: And you know how Baker, you know, sought him out

670
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 2: after they lost to Tampa Bay in a divisional playoff round.

671
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 1: Didn't have to.

672
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 2: TJ was fine with it, but he sought him out,

673
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 2: and just I thought it was I thought it was

674
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 2: really really cool that he did that. But to me,

675
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 2: the one that stood out is cam Ward because I'm

676
00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,560
Speaker 2: watching this thinking, Okay, we got to face this guy

677
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 2: and seeing him prepare, seeing his confidence, yeah, watching him

678
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,800
Speaker 2: play dodgeball with little kids, he's trying to kill him

679
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 2: like he's trying to.

680
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 1: Like literally, he's trying to no, no, you didn't catch.

681
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 2: It, Like he's competing, like he's playing the Texans or

682
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 2: he's in a playoff game.

683
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 1: I don't like him.

684
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,480
Speaker 3: I don't like him with day ball. Although you never

685
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 3: know how the personality that's just gonna work right, does

686
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 3: it work or not? But one thing about cam Ward,

687
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 3: and this plays into last year's game that the Texans

688
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 3: played up there in Nashville.

689
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 1: Davis makes that throat to Nico third and sixteen.

690
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 3: They convert they get the field goal moments later, boom

691
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 3: they win. If you don't convert that third and sixteen,

692
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 3: you punt it back to them. Now, now what happens.

693
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,800
Speaker 3: What happens you go to overtime? Who knows what happens

694
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 3: with cam Ward getting hot? He just hit a touchdown

695
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 3: pass to tie the game. And who knows. He's a

696
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 3: rookie and now he's in year two, new system. It

697
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 3: could be tough, better team. And look, we're not saying

698
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 3: the Titans are going anywhere, but seven eight wins would

699
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 3: be a for them. And you don't want to be

700
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 3: one of those victims.

701
00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 1: Yeah.

702
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,760
Speaker 2: Absolutely, And he's a guy I don't want to say

703
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 2: single handling and get it done, but I think they've

704
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 2: put they put some pieces around and.

705
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 1: He is supremely freaking confident.

706
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 2: And the thing that that gets me is he made

707
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 2: a lot of mistakes early just being a rookie last year.

708
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 2: But the second part of his season was was much better.

709
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 2: He was having back to back really good games. He

710
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 2: he was putting the other games with no interceptions. You know,

711
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 2: so at the at the end of last year, so

712
00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 2: let's see so this so against us, he threw one

713
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 2: touchdown through one touchdown that tied the game. Yep, so

714
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 2: just touchdown interception ratio. He went one one oh, one

715
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 2: to oh, then nothing against Jacksonville, then two touchdowns, one pick.

716
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 2: Then he went two tudies, no picks, two touies, no picks,

717
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 2: two toudies, no picks. And then the last game he

718
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 2: didn't he didn't play long against Jacksonville. Oh he got hurt.

719
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:02,960
Speaker 2: That's ready for the en zero and zero. So over

720
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 2: the last half of the year he's a one interception.

721
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 3: I remember that last interception because we're pulling for him

722
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 3: hard to beat the Jags.

723
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 2: And he scored and as he reached out the ball

724
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:16,280
Speaker 2: he got hit.

725
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 1: Conley, we're just talking about the Sean.

726
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 2: He got hit by one of Jacksonvis defenders and he

727
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 2: was done and then they had to go the backup

728
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 2: and a.

729
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 3: Good serious quarterback on Netflix.

730
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:26,200
Speaker 1: It is good.

731
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 2: Definitely, definitely check it out. All right, we won't talk

732
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 2: to quarterbacks, but we will talk to a couple of Texans.

733
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:36,040
Speaker 2: Next stick around. You're listening to Texas All Access.

734
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,160

Speaker 2: Texas Training Camp Live will be eight am on that

739
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 2: twenty ninth, which is when day my math is correct.

740
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 1: Got a lot of math going on for a former

741
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 1: math future, but I think it's correct.

742
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:10,720
Speaker 2: Nine days, eight o'clock Texas Training Camp Live, eight point

743
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:14,880

744
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 2: to kickoff training camp as he typically does, and then

745
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 2: we are off and rolling. There are what I say

746
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:28,080
Speaker 2: the other day, eight open practices for viewing. I think

747
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 2: one of those practices is gonna be joint practice against

748
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 2: the I almost said Oakland Las Vegas Raiders, have to

749
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 2: remind myself. And speaking of Las Vegas Raiders, brock Boers

750
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:39,960
Speaker 2: number sixty in.

751
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 1: The NFL's Top one hundred.

752
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 2: No more Texans have been revealed since as he's all

753
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,840
Speaker 2: Shire at number ninety two, so closing in on a few.

754
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:51,120
Speaker 2: I don't know that we'll get all the guys that

755
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 2: I thought we were gonna get in the top one hundred,

756
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 2: but yeah, is what it is. There's always another list.

757
00:33:57,160 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 2: In fact that ESPN Top ten lists ring followers putting

758
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 2: out after you talked to executives and personnel people around

759
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:08,880
Speaker 2: the league. Texans well represented in that group, whether it

760
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:12,640
Speaker 2: was in the top ten, the next tier on camera

761
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 2: what they called it. And then there was also receiving

762
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 2: votes honorable mention, I guess is what they call it,

763
00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:21,720
Speaker 2: and then also receiving votes. So Texans had also receiving

764
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,920
Speaker 2: votes at quarterback, they had nobody running back. They had

765
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 2: a top ten wide receiver. They had honorable mention at

766
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 2: tight end. They then on the defensive line defensive, and

767
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 2: they had number three and number six on the edge

768
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 2: rushers edge defender category as he's made it, number six

769
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:45,279
Speaker 2: at linebacker. The safeties they went ten and number eleven

770
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:49,280
Speaker 2: corners they went too and number eleven. Texans were definitely

771
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 2: well represented by their ESPN Top ten. And that one's

772
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 2: voted on by the executives of personnel people out of

773
00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:59,359
Speaker 2: ones any better than the other ones, the players ones,

774
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 2: the executive There's gonna be some built in bias, obviously,

775
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 2: but good see the Texans well represented. And I think

776
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,759
Speaker 2: Sean and Seth had mentioned this this morning. That was

777
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:14,319
Speaker 2: the fourth in the ESPN Top ten rankings. They had

778
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:18,840
Speaker 2: the fourth most mentions the Eagles, the Lions, and the Chiefs.

779
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:21,880
Speaker 2: We're the only teams to have more than the Texans.

780
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 2: So we talked about it before. This is a roster

781
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:29,799
Speaker 2: ready to rock and roll into twenty twenty six. And

782
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:32,399
Speaker 2: as Mark and I talked about, you know last segment, Look,

783
00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 2: we don't need the greatest on show turf rams.

784
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 1: It'd be nice we had it.

785
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 2: We see an offense that goes and takes what it

786
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 2: wants when it wants, whether that's in the run game,

787
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:46,319
Speaker 2: whether that's deep shots, whether that's just consistency and play

788
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 2: action passing game. The offense goes and gets what it

789
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,440
Speaker 2: wants when it wants. It wins the physical battle up front,

790
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:56,279
Speaker 2: and it is productive inside, especially the low red zone

791
00:35:56,680 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 2: were last year. If number off the top of my head,

792
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 2: Kymie fairban forty four field goals, we can't have that.

793
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,000
Speaker 2: I mean, Kym's great, Don't get me wrong. Kyimie a big,

794
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,320
Speaker 2: big stitching because he came up big in the biggest moments.

795
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 2: We don't need him kicking making forty four field goals,

796
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 2: especially the numbers that we were in the inside the

797
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 2: five yard line and having a kick field goals. So

798
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 2: don't need that Steed offense, like I said, that goes

799
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:27,360
Speaker 2: and takes what it wants when it wants, establishes its identity,

800
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,399
Speaker 2: and goes and wins football games. And if it does that,

801
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:32,759
Speaker 2: it's gonna be very tough to stop this football team,

802
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:37,320
Speaker 2: is no question speaking of field goals and lack of punning,

803
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:40,799
Speaker 2: because if your offense is excellent, hopefully you don't punt

804
00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 2: as much. Hopefully you do And as Andre Ware likes

805
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,919
Speaker 2: to say, a possession with a kick slash punt every

806
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,839
Speaker 2: single one. That means you're kicking extra pointer, field goal

807
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:52,759
Speaker 2: or you're punting. Well, the man that is key in

808
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 2: doing all of that as a Texans long snapper and

809
00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 2: going into his second year. Now, when I say his name,

810
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:01,399
Speaker 2: a lot of your gonna be like, oh oh yeah,

811
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:04,160
Speaker 2: Austin Brikman. Oh yeah yeah, that even brings a bell.

812
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,480
Speaker 2: But it doesn't stand out because why because Austin was

813
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:10,239
Speaker 2: excellent in his rookie campaign. It's coming back for year

814
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 2: two at chance to sit down at talk. It's a

815
00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,240
Speaker 2: ball with him. How is your one? How's it going

816
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 2: with some of the new pieces and new punters, how's

817
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:23,320
Speaker 2: it dealing with Kamie Fairban Austin Brickman, long snapper Esquire

818
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 2: right here, joining us right now the pride of two states,

819
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:29,840
Speaker 2: Maryland and West Virginia. Austin Briakman, how's it going, Austin?

820
00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 4: It's good.

821
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 2: How you guys doing doing great? Okay, So let's review.

822
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,719
Speaker 2: How was it for you rookie season? How did it go?

823
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 2: We didn't say your name much other than what you

824
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:41,480
Speaker 2: actually do, which was the whole point of it, right.

825
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, No, it was good.

826
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 5: You know, it's a great learning experience, you know, just

827
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 5: coming into camp and kind of figuring out the flow

828
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 5: of things, and you know, going through the season there

829
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 5: was you know, still learning moments and it was just

830
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,359
Speaker 5: kind of a time to build as the season went on,

831
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:56,879
Speaker 5: and you know, I think we we didn't end where

832
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,759
Speaker 5: we wanted to be, obviously, but I think there's so

833
00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:00,720
Speaker 5: much to take from.

834
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 4: Last season going into this season.

835
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 2: Was there a moment for you, Austin where you know,

836
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 2: you're doing this for the first time with the Texans.

837
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:12,400
Speaker 2: You had some big moments, they hold some big fuel goals,

838
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:13,200
Speaker 2: big punts, et cetera.

839
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: Was there a moment that stood.

840
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:17,200
Speaker 2: Out to you most individually that you remember the most,

841
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 2: that like that was pretty cool.

842
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:22,160
Speaker 5: I don't know about like a like a specific rep,

843
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 5: but I think playing Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh in the playoffs.

844
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:27,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I grew up a.

845
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,840
Speaker 5: Pittsburgh fan, so you know, I think that was just

846
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:31,399
Speaker 5: like kind of a special moment. You know, I had

847
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 5: a ton of friends, a ton of family there, and

848
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:35,279
Speaker 5: that was definitely special for me.

849
00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:38,720
Speaker 2: What was the learning curve like when you first got

850
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,560
Speaker 2: here and had to acclimate to the NFL?

851
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:44,560
Speaker 1: What were your welcome to the NFL moments?

852
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:45,120
Speaker 4: Right?

853
00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:48,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, No, it was it was definitely just getting used

854
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,239
Speaker 5: to like the like the calls, like it's definitely more

855
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:52,239
Speaker 5: complex than any like type of college punt that we

856
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 5: did at West Virginia. And I think it was just

857
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:56,839
Speaker 5: getting used to the speed of everything. You know, all

858
00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 5: these all these guys are the best at what they do,

859
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 5: and I think, you know what the Greenbrier kind of

860
00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 5: you know, when we hit the D line going a

861
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 5: little bit, that was that was kind of a learning

862
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:07,879
Speaker 5: a learning moment there. And then you know, Week one

863
00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 5: is always a welcome to the NFL kind of moment.

864
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 5: Just getting put on my back, you know, first rep,

865
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,319
Speaker 5: and you know, just kind of trying to take that

866
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:17,279
Speaker 5: and let it not happen again was kind of the

867
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 5: idea from there.

868
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 2: So everybody, okay, log snap or well they forget that.

869
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 2: You got to run down after sure you snap the paul.

870
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 2: You got to run down there and go make a play.

871
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:29,920
Speaker 2: What was that like for you running down and seeing

872
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:31,959
Speaker 2: these guys catch the point, Like, all right, I gotta

873
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 2: go down and make this tackle. And this dude runs

874
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:35,800
Speaker 2: four three, He's got all this open space and I

875
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:36,879
Speaker 2: gotta go down and make a play.

876
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,240
Speaker 1: What was that aspect like learning that as a season

877
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:40,120
Speaker 1: where on Austin.

878
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:41,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it was more of like a kind

879
00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 5: of learning where you are on the field kind of thing,

880
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,480
Speaker 5: just kind of learning your space and where you are

881
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,200
Speaker 5: in the field along with you know, everybody else that's

882
00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 5: running down there in their coverage lanes. So I think

883
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:53,440
Speaker 5: it was just more of like a you know, feeling

884
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 5: out like where you are on the field kind of thing,

885
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 5: and just you know, trying to find the right moment

886
00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 5: and you know, right gap to come down and so

887
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 5: you know it was good.

888
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:03,480
Speaker 2: Do they clock you? And I imagine they do How

889
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:07,239
Speaker 2: fast is the snap? Like how many seconds? I remember

890
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:09,719
Speaker 2: point six eight when John Weeks was here that was

891
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 2: years ago.

892
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:12,359
Speaker 1: Is it faster now? Is it about the same, you

893
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:12,879
Speaker 1: tell us.

894
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's about the same.

895
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,080
Speaker 5: It's it's really anywhere from you know, zero point six

896
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:19,400
Speaker 5: eight to point seven zero is really the goal, you know,

897
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:19,759
Speaker 5: just to.

898
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,840
Speaker 4: Give the punter, you know, enough time to operate and

899
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,839
Speaker 4: not feel rushed. And obviously, you know, as long as

900
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:27,000
Speaker 4: we're as we're doing our job blocking it, then you

901
00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:28,239
Speaker 4: know we're gonna get a good pun off.

902
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,400
Speaker 2: So when you go into the off season Austin, it's

903
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:33,080
Speaker 2: you know, everybody in this building has, you know, something

904
00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:34,359
Speaker 2: that they want to work on.

905
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:37,320
Speaker 1: Me Mark and I are subject for you know, agreement.

906
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:38,200
Speaker 1: We got to make sure it.

907
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:40,400
Speaker 2: Sounds good all that we work on that all the time.

908
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 2: For you, what's the one thing that you want to

909
00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:45,319
Speaker 2: work on going into this season? Is it is it

910
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:48,359
Speaker 2: flossy on snaps? Is it location where the snaps are?

911
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:50,520
Speaker 2: Is it even covering punts? What is it that you

912
00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:52,319
Speaker 2: want to really work on going into year two?

913
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,719
Speaker 5: Yes, I think one of the big things for me

914
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:56,319
Speaker 5: it was just kind of like changing my body and

915
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:58,759
Speaker 5: like being here in the off season, you know, just

916
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:01,920
Speaker 5: being more stout in protection not let anything get you know,

917
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 5: really leaky in protection. And you know, now that I've

918
00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:07,440
Speaker 5: kind of been through a year, I feel like I'm

919
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,480
Speaker 5: a little more knowledgeable and like, you know what I'm

920
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 5: supposed to do and kind of my my assignments. So

921
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 5: I think just having that confidence on the field is

922
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 5: going to be a big thing. And then you know

923
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:18,600
Speaker 5: another thing is just always making Amy's job easy and

924
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,359
Speaker 5: you know, getting that ball to the holder and making

925
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:21,200
Speaker 5: sure everything's perfect.

926
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:24,720
Speaker 2: How do you work out in the off season snap wise?

927
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:26,799
Speaker 2: Do you have somebody a partner you go out there

928
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 2: with and just do billions of snaps?

929
00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:29,720
Speaker 1: How do you handle that? Austin?

930
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:31,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I I.

931
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:33,840
Speaker 5: Just went back to West Virginia and are you know

932
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 5: my punter from when I was there for you know,

933
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,759
Speaker 5: four years, five years, he was going through the pro

934
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 5: day process.

935
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 4: So I would go up there and train with him, snap.

936
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:43,880
Speaker 5: With him, and you know, just kind of work with

937
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:44,600
Speaker 5: him a whole bunch.

938
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,560
Speaker 2: Okay, you were number forty, which it just hit me

939
00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:51,239

Speaker 2: for the first time. It's to be our second time

988
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 2: and it is a little weird. Mark I talked about

989
00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:46,440
Speaker 2: this a couple weeks back when we went to twenty nineteen.

990
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 2: So we went on Thursday evening that helped us arrive

991
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:55,160
Speaker 2: on Friday morning. We basically went right to a practice,

992
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:57,560
Speaker 2: our walk through practice on Friday, and then we were

993
00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:00,239
Speaker 2: on schedule for the weekends. We had Saturday off, so

994
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:04,400
Speaker 2: Mark and I were invited to At the time, Fulham

995
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:06,640
Speaker 2: was in the championship, not in Premier League, but they're

996
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:09,360
Speaker 2: in a championship and we took them up on We

997
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,280
Speaker 2: got sitting in a box Craven Cottage. It was awesome.

998
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 2: They were playing Whole City. Well fast forward seven years later,

999
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:19,640
Speaker 2: the Saturday before we faced the Jaguars in London, Fulham

00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:22,160
Speaker 2: plays Whole City. This time both of them in the

1001
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:26,439

1033
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:20,279
Speaker 2: That dude's a stud, absolute just animal. Glad we don't

1034
00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:21,759
Speaker 2: blame him this year. If we do play him, means

1035
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:22,800
Speaker 2: we meet them in the playoffs.

1036
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:25,400
Speaker 1: But man, we.

1037
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:27,239
Speaker 2: Also faced this guy last year. Don't have to face

1038
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:32,279
Speaker 2: him this year. Number fifty nine. Bo Nicks seventeen games

1039

1040
00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:39,840
Speaker 2: passing touchdowns, five rushing, so thirty touchdowns in total. But

1041
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:43,200
Speaker 2: watching his vignette, they focused on fourth quarter comebacks. As

1042
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:45,759
Speaker 2: soon as I saw it went, oh god, there it is.

1043
00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:48,759
Speaker 2: The scramble got him in position, kick the field goal,

1044
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:53,120
Speaker 2: beat us. He did that against the Buffalo Bills as

1045
00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:56,320
Speaker 2: well in overtime, led them to a win with scrambles

1046
00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:59,040
Speaker 2: at the end. Unfortunately, broke his ankle and was not

1047
00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:02,360
Speaker 2: available for the AFC Championship game. But bone Nicks do

1048
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:06,960

00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:14,520
Speaker 2: of brought up the rear of that first round crew,
