1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: Hello, Texans, welcome to the program. Thursday night. We are

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:06,200
Speaker 1: so looking forward to what's going to happen Sunday. And

3
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: that's when the Texans return home to face the Tampa

4
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:13,920
Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers. Kids Day presented by Texas Children's The Bucks

5
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:19,079
Speaker 1: coming in losers of three straight, hungry, starving for a victory,

6
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 1: and the Texans also hungry themselves after losing to Carolina

7
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,680
Speaker 1: last week. And it's Mark vandermir and John Harris with you.

8
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 1: Joined because it's Thursday by the General John McClain. Good evening, General.

9
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:35,480
Speaker 1: Let's kick it off with thoughts on the matchup Sunday.

10
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 1: This is a tall order to me. This is a

11
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,519
Speaker 1: desperate team with a good defense. Baker Mayfield streaky. How

12
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:42,199
Speaker 1: do you see it?

13
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 2: Texans should be a desperate team too. They're trying to

14
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 2: stay in a playoff race. Now was thought they had

15
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 2: a chance for Their defense has been playing great, giving

16
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 2: up eighteen point three points a game. If they can

17
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 2: maintain that, it'd be second in franchise history. In two

18
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 2: thousand and eleven with JJ Watt and Wade Phillips in

19
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:07,960
Speaker 2: their first season, the run defense has been incredible, going

20
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 2: from thirtieth to eleventh. I think they will stuff the

21
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 2: run because the Bucks don't run very well seventy seven

22
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 2: point nine a game, so I think they'll stuff it.

23
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 2: It will give guys like Jonathan Gernard, will Anderson Junior

24
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 2: and Malie Collins a chance to treat Mayfield the way

25
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 2: they treated Bryjeng, which was quite rudely. And another thing

26
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 2: about their run defense. In that game's Sunday, they only

27
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,199
Speaker 2: started four guys that weren't on the team last year,

28
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:39,119
Speaker 2: and in the last five games they've given up ninety

29
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 2: one to eight rushing three point four carry over the

30
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 2: last three seventy six point three two point seventy carry.

31
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 2: So that improvement on defense, which I never expected to me,

32
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 2: has been staggering.

33
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 3: General.

34
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 4: On the offensive side of the ball, there's a potential

35
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 4: we don't know for sure, but there's a potential because

36
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 4: Damian Pierce has not practiced that you could be without

37
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 4: Damian Pierce, Robert Woods, taking Quatoriano, Brevin Jordan, anybody else

38
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 4: I missed. Oh, and then you lost Jared Patterson, who

39
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 4: as your starting center, not to mention all the other

40
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 4: offensive linemen, and you're going to face the Tampa Bay

41
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 4: Buccaneers defense. So if you're Bobby Slowick, how do you

42
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 4: go into this game and what is your philosophy of

43
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 4: pass run?

44
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 3: What do you do against the.

45
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 4: Defense that's got vitavea potentially back and you're without all

46
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 4: those guys we just mentioned.

47
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,640
Speaker 2: They were without more than that, and they beat the

48
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 2: tar out of Pittsburgh. They relegated TJ. Watt to being irrelevant,

49
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,079
Speaker 2: so they're capable of doing it again. And they've been

50
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 2: good in all other than the game against Anthony Richardson.

51
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 2: You know the Bucks. The Bucks lead the league in

52
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 2: turnover differential plus eight, which is amazing because when you

53
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 2: see the team that's leading, usually it's one of the

54
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 2: best teams with a great record. And as you guys mentioned,

55
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 2: they've lost three in a row and they're three and four,

56
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,519
Speaker 2: so I think you know. Michael Dieter is the new center.

57
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 2: By the way, according to Elias Sports Bureau, the Texans

58
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 2: the first team since nineteen sixty to start a rookie

59
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 2: center or a rookie quarterback for the first seven games of

60
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 2: the season. That's true, of course, is over. But Dieter,

61
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 2: I don't know whens the last time he played center

62
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 2: in a regular season game. Came in at the end

63
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 2: of the Carolina game and they need him to be good.

64
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 2: You know they're going to double team Vitaveo with either

65
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 2: Shaq Mason or Titus Hour. It'll still be a left

66
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 2: guard even though he struggled there. And the reason they

67
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 2: can't run the balls because their offensive line. Too many

68
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 2: guys getting hit in the backfield before they ever get started.

69
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 2: But the Bucks do have a great run defense. Taxans

70
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 2: have a bad run offense. So I'm guessing that both

71
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 2: running games will be shut down. It'll come down to

72
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield and CJ. Stroud who does the best job.

73
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: Did we underestimate how important Robert Woods is to this

74
00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 1: offense going into that game last week?

75
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 3: Again, it's Carolina.

76
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 2: Personally, I don't think he would have made any difference. CJ.

77
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 2: Stroud's rating has gone down each of the last five weeks.

78
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 2: I don't think Robert Woods was missing except for one game.

79
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 2: Teams have adjusted to what was working with Stroud. Now

80
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 2: Bobby Sloweck. Can Stroud have to adjust to what they're

81
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 2: doing with him. Of course, they need to get Dalton

82
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:22,359
Speaker 2: Schultz involved.

83
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 4: Moore.

84
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 2: I thought Schultz with Woods out would be involvedmore than

85
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 2: he has been. He had his worst game of the season.

86
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 2: So so Bobby Slowick has got to become more creative.

87
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:35,359
Speaker 2: He's got to be able to adjust because teams have

88
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 2: adjusted to him and what he's doing and what CJ.

89
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 2: Stroud is doing. So yeah, they miss Woods on third down,

90
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 2: but I don't think Stroud's decline in passer rating is

91
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,360
Speaker 2: anything do with Woods being.

92
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,039
Speaker 3: Out defensively general.

93
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:55,159
Speaker 4: Last week six sacks, I mean the most sacks, most sacks,

94
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 4: and how long as I said that, I had to

95
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 4: think about that. When's the last time the Texas have

96
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 4: had six sacks? Point being, he's starting to see some

97
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 4: real growth defensively. The last drive against Atlanta you like

98
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 4: to have back, the last drive against Carolina you like

99
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 4: to have back.

100
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 3: But the pass rush is really getting it going.

101
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 4: And now you face Baker Mayfield, and you mentioned a

102
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 4: little bit earlier they've not been able to run.

103
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 3: The ball very well.

104
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 4: I would feel I would think that's a recipe for success,

105
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 4: the fact that this pass rush has really kind of

106
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 4: picked it up lately. How do you kind of look

107
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 4: at that match up, the pass rush going against Baker

108
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 4: Mayfield with an offense that really can't run the ball

109
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 4: in the bucks.

110
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,559
Speaker 2: You should have had eight sacks and two were called

111
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 2: back by penalties. Jonathan Garnard, who's playing for a new contract,

112
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 2: should have had three and a half, but he had

113
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 2: to face mass penalty on his first one, so I

114
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 2: don't know. They knocked down Bryce Young ten times. They

115
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 2: had nine tackles for loss. It was a great performance.

116
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 2: Just one stinking drive kept him from winning. And you

117
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,599
Speaker 2: think about it, They've lost their last two games with

118
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 2: no time left on the clock, so they're so close,

119
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 2: so close to being five and two. A lot of

120
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 2: teams can say they could have won games. I understand.

121
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 2: But the getting after Bryce Young, besides Grenard schooling in

122
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 2: kid Kwantu, a former high number one pick, that was brutal.

123
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 2: That would Gernard be arrested for what he did him

124
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,920
Speaker 2: on the field if it was off the field, and

125
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 2: can he keep it up? You know the Buccaneers are

126
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 2: going to double him, They're not going to have one

127
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:22,840
Speaker 2: guy blocking him, and that that should help Elite Collins,

128
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 2: but also it should help will Anderson Junior. At a

129
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 2: split sack with Jalen Petrick called back the key to

130
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 2: all that was forty four yards rushing I did a

131
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 2: column for sports Radio six to ten dot com about

132
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 2: why they have improved dramatically on defense over the last

133
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 2: three years, and the Migo said, the key is you

134
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 2: got to have Will Anderson Johnathan Garnard setting the edge

135
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,239
Speaker 2: and even though we think of him as pass rushers,

136
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 2: are really good against the run. The idea is to

137
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 2: keep everything inside, don't let people get around the corner

138
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 2: and break long runs. They've been able to do that.

139
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 2: And then of course they got to have that physical

140
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 2: mindset the Domico's always talking about, and he said, if

141
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 2: you continue to do that, people are not gonna run it,

142
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 2: They're gonna throw the ball. Then you get after the quarterback. Well,

143
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 2: I think we saw that against the Panthers. It didn't

144
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 2: result in a victory, of course, but if that is

145
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 2: a sign of what's to come beginning Sunday against Baker Mayfield,

146
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 2: that is going to be tremendous for the Texans. They're

147
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 2: gonna win a lot more games. Also, wonder Bryce Young

148
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 2: being a rookie, Baker Mayfield being a savvy veteran, if

149
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 2: he will be able to get the ball quicker or

150
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 2: see those guys all over him. Brian Baldinger had the

151
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 2: ultiwenty two tape and he ran ran a thing this

152
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 2: week showing how Jonathan Greenard is. He called him Jonathan

153
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 2: Greenard just worked over ikey A Kwanu and how quick

154
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 2: he got to Bryce Young and how he beat double

155
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 2: teams with Lineman, how he beat a Kwanu, didn't beat

156
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 2: a running back. I can't wait to see if Grenard

157
00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 2: can continue it. And then Nick Cereo's gonna have to

158
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 2: pay him a whole lot of money.

159
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll get to that later. Let's get to this though.

160
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: In the it's a weird league department in the AFC.

161
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 1: When you take out the division leaders, then you have

162
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 1: the Bills at five and three. Everybody's four and three

163
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: or three and four until you get to the bottom,

164
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 1: the New England Patriots, and I love saying that, but

165
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: what do you make of.

166
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 3: What's happening right now? This win one, lose one.

167
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: You do have a few teams on a roll here,

168
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 1: the Bengals three in a row, the Jets three in

169
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 1: a row, obviously, the Ravens three in a row, and

170
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 1: the Jaguars, I.

171
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 3: Don't even want to talk about them, with what five

172
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 3: victories in all longest Rex streak.

173
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: It's just a jumbled group right now, general with a

174
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 1: chance for the Texans to do some damage if they

175
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: can get hot.

176
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 2: Well, les we talking right now. The Times are getting

177
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 2: ready to play at Pittsburgh. I certainly don't expect Will

178
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 2: Lewis to have the kind of game against the Steelers

179
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 2: and Mike Tomlin as he did Sunday in that incredible

180
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 2: warm US four touchdowns, no interceptions of one point thirty

181
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 2: rating must have been close. And Jacksonville, I guess the

182
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 2: Texans slapped them silly because they haven't lost the game since.

183
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 2: Can't wait till November twenty six when the Jaguars come here.

184
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 2: If the Texans could sweep them, that's like beating them

185
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,680
Speaker 2: three times, because if you did need a tiebreaker, I

186
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 2: don't think they will. Texans have to beat Tampa because

187
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 2: then they run the resk of being three and six

188
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 2: because they're not gonna win it. Cincinnati and look around

189
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 2: Kansas City. Losing that game at Denver that was pathetic.

190
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 2: All of a sudden, they look like they could use

191
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill, although they won a Super Bowl without it.

192
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 2: To me, the biggest disappointment you're talking about the Patriots

193
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 2: Mark to be the biggest disappointment of the Chargers. The

194
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 2: Chargers made the playoffs last year. They were supposed to

195
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 2: be clearly number two to Kansas City and AFC West.

196
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,680
Speaker 2: Brandon Staley's right up there near the top of coaches

197
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 2: most likely to be fired. When you have Justin Herbert

198
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 2: and the kind of talent they have on both sides

199
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 2: of the ball, you ought to be better. And Herbert

200
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,079
Speaker 2: had an engineer at winning drive in the fourth quarter.

201
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's just last year this year,

202
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 2: but he has not been good in that situation. And

203
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 2: when I see surprise teams and good teams right now,

204
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,680
Speaker 2: I'm not so sure if Cincinnati is not the best

205
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,320
Speaker 2: team in the league. Now that Joe Burrow is healthy

206
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 2: and that that Chiefs Dolphins game, those Germans are in

207
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 2: for a huge tree. It's the best game featuring two

208
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 2: teams with the most victories in any international game, and

209
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 2: it's right there in Germany, and those Mans will eat

210
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 2: it up.

211
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm glad you clarified that the game is in Germany.

212
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 4: It's not just a bunch of Germans that are watching

213
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 4: the game. It's actually in Germany. You can watch it though,

214
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 4: even if you're not Germany.

215
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 3: Yeah you can. I mean you are allowed. General. You're

216
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:48,479
Speaker 3: talking about disappointments.

217
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 4: I don't know where this ranks on the disappointment scale,

218
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 4: but the Raiders made a lot of changes. Josh McDaniels,

219
00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 4: Dave Ziegler, Mick Lombardi, and essentially Jimmy Garoppol all benched

220
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 4: or fired.

221
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:04,840
Speaker 3: Your thoughts about what's going on in Las Vegas.

222
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 2: Well, playing ad Aidan O'Connell as a rookie at quarterback,

223
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 2: they're just trying to lose. They've thrown in the white flag.

224
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,680
Speaker 2: They want to get one of the quarterbacks with a

225
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 2: new coach. People are talking about, well what about what

226
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 2: about Lincoln Riley, Caleb Williams, Well you better have the

227
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 2: first pick, what about Jim Harbaugh, Jj McCarthy. There's a

228
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 2: lot of avenues in which they could go. You know,

229
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 2: I don't if I'm a Raiders fan, I got no

230
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 2: confidence whatsoever in Mark Davis. You know, his business acumen

231
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 2: of owning a team will never match the worst haircut

232
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 2: in history of mankind. But it's pretty bad. He's hired

233
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 2: a lot of coaches, a lot of gms. Going back

234
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 2: to Gruden and Mayock, they were supposed to be the

235
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,680
Speaker 2: be all end all, and of course that didn't live

236
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:57,959
Speaker 2: in because of football. And I just I know that

237
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:02,439
Speaker 2: Josh McDaniels insisted on Zigler coming. Ziegeler is a protege

238
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 2: nick a Sario, so he hired both of them. Josh McDaniels,

239
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 2: let's face it, he became a great offensive coordinator because

240
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 2: of Tom Brady. I'm not so sure the three of

241
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 2: us couldn't have been a great coordinator because of Tom Brady.

242
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 2: It's kind of a it's such really shocking, isn't it

243
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,439
Speaker 2: That Bill O'Brien was a great coordinator when he had Brady.

244
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 2: Now that he's gone back with Mac Jones, not so much.

245
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 1: It's funny you say that, because I could imagine myself

246
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 1: as an OC, Tom, what would you like to run

247
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 1: this play?

248
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 3: Okay, let's do that one and you know he comes

249
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 3: over you were.

250
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 2: I'll read the Boston Globe while you call the play exactly, Tom,

251
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 2: whatever you think, man, you just call the plays out there.

252
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 1: Let's go old school here, let's go with Dante pastoral seconds.

253
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 2: Speaking of old school, let's reminded me of a great

254
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 2: story I was told when Tom Landry and Vince Lombardi

255
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 2: were coaching the giants for Jim Ray out. The writers,

256
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,199
Speaker 2: the TV people didn't go out then, but he walk down.

257
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 2: There's a long hallway thro Ova solely, and you look

258
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 2: in one dark room and there's no film projector on

259
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 2: the wall, and Lombardi's working on the offense. Then you

260
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 2: go to the next room, there's dark film projector on

261
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 2: the wall. Landry is working on the defense. Then you

262
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 2: get down to the head coach, Jim Lee Howe's office,

263
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 2: and he's got the newspaper spread out, his feet up

264
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 2: on the desk and he's reading the New York Daily Notes.

265
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 3: That's beautiful.

266
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 2: That's the kind of head coaching job you want.

267
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 1: Exactly exactly, Well, we talked about the Raiders a little bit.

268
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: We'll see what they do. But back to tonight's game.

269
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 1: Will Levis your thoughts on the encore performance after four

270
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 1: touchdown passes in the debut. We cannot expect that kind

271
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: of production from him. I know we're not going to

272
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: get that. But is he good enough to continue to

273
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 1: be at least effective as an NFL starter or was

274
00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: that a complete aberration?

275
00:13:59,200 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 3: How did you see it?

276
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 2: People up there really fired up of course, Mike Rabel's

277
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 2: a genius. Again. Tim Kelly actually knows what he's doing.

278
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 2: And I do two shows a week up there, and

279
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,680
Speaker 2: they're like, have you ever seen anything like this? In

280
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 2: the first game, I said, Marcus Mariota, he had four

281
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 2: touchdowns and no interceptions in his first game off the

282
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,720
Speaker 2: brakes a little bit. Now, I thought Levis was going

283
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 2: in the first round. Ediman first round, and all twelve

284
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,240
Speaker 2: of my mock drafts I studied him carefully because at

285
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 2: one point I thought he might end up with the Texans.

286
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,960
Speaker 2: You know, mel kiper Edim is the best quarterback prospect

287
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 2: in the draft, and you think he's not growing this week.

288
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 2: And one thing last year about Levis. He lost his

289
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 2: office coordinator, he lost his receivers. He played hurt. You know,

290
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 2: as he told us that to combine, you guys were there,

291
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 2: I'm gonna throw because I want to. I got a

292
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 2: canon for an arm and I wanted to see it,

293
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 2: and they saw it. Titans traded up in the second

294
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 2: round to get him. D Hop averaged thirty two yards

295
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 2: to catch, never averaged thirty two yards to catch. Here

296
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 2: he feels like he's found and found in the youth

297
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,720
Speaker 2: Dereck Henry had one hundred yards again, so he didn't

298
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 2: have to play that great. But if he plays just

299
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 2: half that, well, think about what his stats could be.

300
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 2: I think now we're gonna see C. J. Stroud Will

301
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 2: Levis two times in December.

302
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,960
Speaker 1: Over under on Levis interceptions. Tonight, I'll set it a

303
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: one and a half. I'm going over. I'm going over.

304
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 4: The whole thing was his inconsistency at Kentucky. That was

305
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 4: the whole thing. In a game, you would see two

306
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 4: beautiful throws, you'd see a crappy throw. From game to game,

307
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 4: you'd see one good game, you'd see one bad game.

308
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 4: It was inconsistency. So if he goes out tonight and

309
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 4: throws a couple of touchdowns, I'm not ready to put

310
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 4: him in Canton, but it might mean that he's getting

311
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:44,040
Speaker 4: better coaching. He's got more consistent offensive players, as John mentioned,

312
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 4: around him.

313
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 3: But I'm still going over. I'm going over to the

314
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:46,960
Speaker 3: two picks tonight.

315
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 2: I'll go under just to be different for you guys,

316
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 2: because I know y'all are hoping for that.

317
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 1: So bad lives hanging the balance of these predictions clearly yes.

318
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 4: In general, the trade deadline passed on Tuesday. Nothing here

319
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 4: in Houston, but samitch En kind of doghead turned moves

320
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 4: like Chase Young the forty nine ers and Montes Sweat

321
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 4: went to the Bears and they didn't get an extension

322
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 4: done at the same time that trade was being made

323
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 4: trade deadline.

324
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 3: Were your thoughts?

325
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 2: I thought, Ron Rivera's gone, Jack del Rio the defensive

326
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 2: coordinator for them. Think about it. You get rid of

327
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 2: their two best pass rushers, don't even try to resign them,

328
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 2: get rid of them. Get a compensatory three for Young.

329
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 2: So Young will not be resigned for the forty nine ers.

330
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 2: How in the world could they do that considering what

331
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 2: they paid Nick Bosa and then tackle Javon Rgray come

332
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 2: from Philadelphia. I just don't think they could do it

333
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 2: with a third player. But Young was playing really well,

334
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 2: so you get him, he leaves, you get a third

335
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 2: round compens story picks. He basically got him free for

336
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 2: with the four nine games, and I thought it was

337
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 2: a brilliant move. Sweat, and you know he's gonna want

338
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 2: to get paid. He goes to the Bears. I don't

339
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 2: know why anybody want to go to the Bears. It

340
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 2: wasn't his choice. They should have got the extension worked

341
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:06,840
Speaker 2: out and they didn't. So now you can pull the

342
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 2: Laramie ton so he can work them and get a

343
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 2: much bigger contract because they gave up at two. They

344
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,479
Speaker 2: don't want to be like Chase Claypool. They gave up

345
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 2: at two for him. It backfired. This one's got to work.

346
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 2: But it just shows everybody Ron Rivera is history.

347
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 1: Help me out with this one. The Colts are visiting

348
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,360
Speaker 1: the Panthers. We just saw them up close and personal

349
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 1: getting their first victory of the year. Ouch Colts three

350
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,919
Speaker 1: and five going in after doing all they could to

351
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: get a victory but not enough against the New Orleans Saints.

352
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 3: What do you think of this one in Charlotte this weekend?

353
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,359
Speaker 2: First of all, the Texans are won a game giving

354
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 2: up one touchdown now winnings preposterous in the NFL, And

355
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:50,879
Speaker 2: of course the defense played a role because of the

356
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 2: last series. But I think that the Colts with Gardner

357
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:57,880
Speaker 2: Minshew had been able to score. And we've seen him

358
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 2: in the past that Jacksonville, He's up one week down

359
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 2: the next. Seemed like he was almost always up against

360
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:07,160
Speaker 2: the Texans, except in London. But they Texans still beat

361
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 2: him almost every time they played him, and it wouldn't

362
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 2: surprise me if the Panthers don't win a second game.

363
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 2: But Indy, you know, Indy's not bad. Indy's a half

364
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 2: game behind the Texans and Titans, and there I think

365
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,880
Speaker 2: all three teams as it plays out over the rest

366
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,639
Speaker 2: of the season, they're gonna win some, they're gonna lose some.

367
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 2: The key is candy studying in the race for the

368
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,680
Speaker 2: wildcard because right now there's a lot of teams that

369
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 2: are in it, and none of them are really good.

370
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,679
Speaker 2: The division winners leaders are good, but not the teams

371
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:42,360
Speaker 2: competing for the wildcard so far.

372
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,119
Speaker 4: General, over in the NFC, we know it's the Philadelphia

373
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,440
Speaker 4: Eagles is more likely the best team, and they're playing

374
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,639
Speaker 4: they're starting to kind of round into shape. You would think,

375
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,360
Speaker 4: what's the one AFC team that you would not want

376
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 4: to face this Sunday?

377
00:18:56,840 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 2: The one that Texans played next Sunday, since they that

378
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 2: victory in San Francisco was very impressive. Wasn't very impressive

379
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 2: to Arizona. But so what Joe Joe Burrow is playing

380
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,919
Speaker 2: really well again and as he goes, so go The

381
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 2: Bengals forty nine ers Rock perty's not playing well. Eagle's

382
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 2: the best team. I still can't believe the Chiefs lost

383
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 2: at Denver, breaking their five game winning streak. Think when

384
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 2: all's said and done, it's going to come down to

385
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 2: Kansas City and in Cincinnati and Miami. I don't think

386
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,679
Speaker 2: Buffalo is just for some reason, Buffalo doesn't have it

387
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:38,200
Speaker 2: going on and at Philadelphia. Should beat the Cowboys in

388
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 2: Philly and they'll play them later in Arlington. But I

389
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 2: don't think anybody except Diward Cowboy fans going to put

390
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,119
Speaker 2: the Cowboys into class with the Eagles right now. And

391
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 2: even though the Lions got stamped at Baltimore, they rebounded

392
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:57,159
Speaker 2: against the Raiders, and their schedule is really easy. It

393
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,159
Speaker 2: won't surprise me at all if the Lions don't end

394
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,719
Speaker 2: up with home field advantage in the NFC.

395
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 1: Wow, all right, General, In this week's episode of what's

396
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 1: going on with Deshaun Watson, he's unsure exactly, He's unsure

397
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:17,239
Speaker 1: if he's playing okay, and they continue to put him

398
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: out in front of the media, which is what I

399
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 1: wanted to get into right here. How surprising is that

400
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: to you last week? This week he's not cleared to

401
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 1: play or it's not announced that he's playing yet they

402
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 1: put him up there at the podium every week, which

403
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 1: is a strange pr move.

404
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 3: To me, what are your thoughts.

405
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 2: They have to unus the guys on injured reserve or

406
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 2: he's out hurt. They got to talk. So if he

407
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 2: doesn't talk, they're gonna find him. They're gonna go to

408
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,679
Speaker 2: the league office and they're gonna find him. But teams

409
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 2: operate differently. The Texans. If you got a toenail, they

410
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,640
Speaker 2: don't talk. But up there they tried him out there

411
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 2: because they have to because they if he's he's possible

412
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:59,400
Speaker 2: of playing Sunday. He said that just because he said

413
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 2: he shouldn't have to play in the last game and

414
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:04,639
Speaker 2: he's practicing that, he said that doesn't mean he's playing.

415
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 2: So when you're in that situation, you haven't been ruled out.

416
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 2: Then you got talked to the media.

417
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:12,640
Speaker 3: All right, I've got one for you here.

418
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:16,640
Speaker 1: Because Greg Grissom, the president of the Texans, and Jan Rodriguez,

419
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 1: who is basically the czar of the building. He oversees

420
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,639
Speaker 1: the building. They were talking about traffic with the media

421
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 1: yesterday and how there's major construction going on to eighty

422
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:30,120
Speaker 1: eight where if you want to go east from TOO

423
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:30,760
Speaker 1: eighty eight.

424
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:32,640
Speaker 3: You gotta go west first to make a UI somewhere.

425
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:37,159
Speaker 1: And obviously those exits impact an RG stadium access on Sunday,

426
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,120
Speaker 1: so they're encouraging everybody to take extra time to get

427
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:44,639
Speaker 1: to the stadium on Sunday. And there's some construction as

428
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 1: well on West Ridge right where they squeeze the road.

429
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 1: I take that every morning to get to work. But anyway, construction,

430
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 1: it's never really done. It's like life, it's a journey.

431
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 1: There's no destination here is what is the most menacing

432
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:03,199
Speaker 1: construction project in your memory in Houston? Is it the

433
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 1: Katie Freeway? Is it the two to eighty eight expansion.

434
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously not all of these affect your commute

435
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,479
Speaker 1: or have, but what do you think general?

436
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,879
Speaker 2: Ever since before I came to Houston, they've been working

437
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 2: on two ninety, they're still working on TOO ninety, and

438
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,639
Speaker 2: they've been working on forty five and forty five South.

439
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,719
Speaker 2: Forty five South is just I don't even know why

440
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:27,439
Speaker 2: anybody goes to Galveston anymore. But you know, I was thinking,

441
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 2: I've been going to the Astrodome slash NRG Stadium since

442
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 2: nineteen seventy seven, and I go away in which there's

443
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,720
Speaker 2: no traffic, and I whiz right in, and so I

444
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 2: should probably tell everybody what it is, but I'm not.

445
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:47,200
Speaker 2: He's got everybody going see no access, go Worley, tailgate,

446
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,879
Speaker 2: have fun. I'm glad you guys brought this up because

447
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,160
Speaker 2: I need to tweet it a couple of times because

448
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:57,400
Speaker 2: I remember the last year the Oilers were here, the

449
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:01,880
Speaker 2: Astros on the they were the landlord. They cut back

450
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 2: on people, security, everything, People weren't three games, people, media,

451
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 2: people didn't get into halftime. Everybody wanted to blame it

452
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 2: on Bud Adams. I said, bout Adams done anything to

453
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 2: do with that, because they had things going on in

454
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 2: the other buildings. And so I told people just go early.

455
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,480
Speaker 2: I don't know what time you guys get there. I

456
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 2: get there three hours early because I want to be

457
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 2: in the press box. I don't want to be stuck

458
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 2: in driving.

459
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 3: I'm with you. I'm well before that.

460
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,919
Speaker 4: And by the way, general I A I would like

461
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 4: for you to use the verb whiz a little bit more.

462
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 4: You know, you said you whizz right in. That was good,

463
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 4: that was good. We need to we need to whizz

464
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 4: right through things. I mean that we need to use

465
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 4: that verb a little bit more.

466
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 3: That's a good one.

467
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,920
Speaker 2: I like that two definitions, like I.

468
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 4: Got it, like the Wizard of Oz. I mean, it's

469
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 4: like moving rapidly. You whizzed by.

470
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 1: Stop talking about my prostate. Okay, anyway next.

471
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 3: Oh there you go? All right?

472
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 4: General, Uh, we've talked kind of all around Titans and Steelers.

473
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 3: Who you got tonight.

474
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 2: I think the Steelers are going to win that game.

475
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 2: I think the defense is going to double DeAndre Hopkins.

476
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 2: Will Levis is going to be welcome to the NFL.

477
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 2: I think it's going to be low scoring. Pittsburgh's games

478
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 2: usually are. I think the Steelers will win, like nineteen

479
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 2: to sixteen.

480
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 3: Thoughts on the Rangers winning the World Series.

481
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 2: Congratulations for them. They joked the game. In the last

482
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,679
Speaker 2: regular season game. They had to go to Tampa, the

483
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:30,959
Speaker 2: Ray's at home field advantage. Rangers won. Same to Baltimore.

484
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,119
Speaker 2: They won, they won here and they won there, so

485
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 2: eleven and zero on the road. Bruce Bochie won the

486
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 2: all time great Managers. Congratulations to the Rangers for winning it.

487
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,359
Speaker 2: I can't wait till spring training.

488
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's going to be fun Astros Rangers. Next year,

489
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 1: it's all elevated. It's going to be really cool to

490
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 1: have that rivalry going on. And you know what, the

491
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 1: Texans have a shot to play the Cowboys next year

492
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 1: in Dallas because if you finish in the same slot

493
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 1: with them in the division, right.

494
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,719
Speaker 3: Because we play the NFCU play them. So if you're first,

495
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 3: you might play the Eagles. But wait, who do you

496
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,199
Speaker 3: have with the Dallas Eagles this weekend? Is it Eagles?

497
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 2: No question about oh Eagles. They're playing at home. I

498
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,919
Speaker 2: think they're gonna beat the Cowboys. They just gave up

499
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:15,119
Speaker 2: thirty one to Washington, so they're gonna give up a

500
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,160
Speaker 2: lot to the Cowboys. I think it'd be like thirty

501
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:17,920
Speaker 2: to twenty seven.

502
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,880
Speaker 4: Okay, Jenner, you mentioned Washington. That made me think there

503
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,400
Speaker 4: are a lot of rumors about Washington and Bill Belichick.

504
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 3: What do you think about that?

505
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 4: You think it's possible that Josh Harris could make a

506
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:29,640
Speaker 4: dealing ring Bill Belichick.

507
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 2: There No, Mike Florio throws some things out there like

508
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 2: that and it gives a lot of clicks. And he

509
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 2: said he's been hearing that Belichick just signed that big

510
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 2: contract extension in the offseason cordeon Rapaport, and I don't

511
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 2: think he would have gone with it if it wasn't true.

512
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 2: But Florio put it out there. They could pay the

513
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 2: Patriots something as compensation, take on the contract, make a

514
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 2: big splash. Truthfully, you know, we've seen that with some

515
00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 2: other coaches. Some have been successful, some haven't. The Olchuk's

516
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,439
Speaker 2: gonna be I think he's seventy two. Now, I'm not

517
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,880
Speaker 2: saying I wouldn't do it, but if I'm Washington, that's

518
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:07,880
Speaker 2: not who I want to start over with.

519
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 3: Didn Lombardi went, He went to the playoffs with Washington.

520
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 2: He was They were terrible because he was starting. He

521
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 2: had cancer and he died quickly, and he and and

522
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 2: so you never know. I would have worked out if

523
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 2: he lived another twenty years and they had total control,

524
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 2: but his illness got him and it never was what

525
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 2: that Jack and Cook wanted to be.

526
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 4: They had a good they had a good record the

527
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 4: one year, but they didn't make the playoffs. They had

528
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,480
Speaker 4: a good record that year though they had like seven

529
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 4: and five or something something like that.

530
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 1: For them, it all right, yeah, you're right, I've got

531
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 1: it right here. Hang on a second. It was seven

532
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 1: and five yes, Johnny seven and five, which right that, John, Yeah,

533
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,119
Speaker 1: my history. That was the headline at the time. And kids,

534
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,480

Speaker 3: Okay, that's different. That's different. That's just you know, I

Speaker 2: No, we never read anybody leave a bowl out Waco

557
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 2: because if you did, first people came by, it is

558
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 2: going to take it off. Yeah, And I told the

559
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 2: story Sean Pnder. Guess I gotta tell it quick. When

560
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 2: I go home to Waco and I see people I've

561
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,360
Speaker 2: known my whole life, they call me mad Dog. That's

562
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 2: been my nickname since seventh grade. Oh my gosh, because

563
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,119
Speaker 2: I was This girl told me she's gonna let me

564
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,719
Speaker 2: kiss her on Halloween. So I was supposed to meet her.

565
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:16,719
Speaker 2: I was running lake because I was trick or treating,

566
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,920
Speaker 2: and so I started cutting through yards, jumping fences, and

567
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 2: I got beat by a dog, bit by a dog,

568
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 2: and I'm thinking, you know, I'd rather kiss her than

00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 2: worry about this dog. And I got it. She stood

570

573
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 2: doing jumping all those fences? And so I didn't tell

00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 2: them and they take me to vet and I had

575
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 2: to get raby shots. So from that point on, all

576
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 2: my friends called me mad Dog.

577
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 3: All right, never got that kiss, for got a bit

Speaker 1: game that everybody loves so much. It's taking over the

584
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:12,560
Speaker 1: entire game show universe. More likely to happen. We're going

585
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 1: to do it next here it's Texans Radio continuing on

586

Speaker 1: Mark Vandermere and John Harris with you. Thanks to the

588
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 1: General for being on this show. Will be in podcast

589
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,719
Speaker 1: form soon enough, but by the time you listen to it,

590
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 1: the General will have made his pick or it will

591
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 1: be known the results of the game between the Titans

592
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 1: and the Pittsburgh Steelers, so we'll see if he was

593
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 1: right or wrong.

594
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 4: Who did you pick in that one? By the way, Johnny,

595
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 4: that's Steelish steel was winning and covering. There's a two

596
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,080
Speaker 4: two and a half points spread, so I'm going with Steelers.

597
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 4: I don't know how great it feel about it. I mean,

598
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,120
Speaker 4: it sounds like Kenny Pikett's gonna play so I think that's.

599
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 3: A good thing. So I'm gonna go with that. I

600
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 3: think it is a good thing.

601
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 1: He says, with the question mark, Yeah, all right, I said,

602
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 1: we're going to play more likely to happen, but I

603
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 1: live it's.

604
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 3: Who's better because we could go either way.

605
00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 1: Sometimes we've made him up. But here we go, and

606
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 1: in no particular order, let's have it. Who's better? What's better?

607
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 1: In this case, what's a better coaching job? The Raiders,

608
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 1: which just parted ways with their boss Josh McDaniels, or

609
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: I'm not saying the.

610
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 3: Job is open, but it feels like it could be soon.

611
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 1: The Bears with Matt Eberflus, better job, Johnny Bears Raiders go.

612
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 3: I think it's the Bears.

613
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 4: And I say that only because the Bears have a

614
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 4: ton of cap space.

615
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 3: They don't have a bunch.

616
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 4: Of long term contracts locked in, but they got to

617
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 4: try and figure out. They have tons of draft capital,

618
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 4: so I think draft capital. If you talk to somebody's

619
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 4: constructing a team, he thought, Okay, what do you need, Well,

620
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 4: I'd like to have some draft some draft capital. I'd

621
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 4: like to have some cap space. Those two things I

622
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 4: can work with. I don't know that the Raiders have

623
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 4: either one of those, and with Jimmy Garoppolo the way

624
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 4: the contract was structured, if he's not there in twenty

625
00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 4: twenty four, it's a twenty eight million dollar hit.

626
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 3: Why did they do this.

627
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 4: So they can get They can make it a June

628
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 4: one designated release if that's the way they end up going,

629
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 4: And if they do, then essentially it's split. They'll recognize

630
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:16,720
Speaker 4: like fifteen or fifteen million of it in twenty four

631
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,600
Speaker 4: and then thirteen million of it in twenty five. So

632
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 4: now the Bears, it's not totally like clean. You got

633
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 4: to decide what do you do with justin fields? What

634
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:30,200
Speaker 4: do you have there? But you have cap space and

635
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:34,480
Speaker 4: you have draft capital. That's a nice place to start.

636
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 4: Now do I get to pick my GM?

637
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, you do because you're an incoming coach with a

638
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 1: lot of juice Bears, So you pick your incoming GM

639
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 1: because I'm thinking that if there's a move there, both

640
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 1: are gone, right, I'm going with the Bears. Montes Sweat

641
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 1: called and said, I've got all the leverage in the

642
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 1: world he does, and look.

643
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:53,920
Speaker 3: I've got cap space.

644
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 4: I'll pay him a little bit of a premium because

645
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 4: the previous GM messed that up. I'll pay him a

646
00:31:58,280 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 4: little bit of a premium, but I'm not gonna give

647
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 4: up the number thirty five, thirty six, thirty seven pick

648
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 4: in the draft and get nothing. I'm keeping Montest Sweat

649
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:08,640
Speaker 4: even if it costs me money. I'm making sure I

650
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 4: keep Sweat. And he turns into the stud we think

651
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 4: he's gonna be. He's gonna be our next Khalil Mack.

652
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 4: And so now we're starting to build something on the

653
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 4: defensive side of the ball.

654
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 3: Find the right quarterback in the draft, and away we go.

655
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 1: Okay, Who's better continues and we'll get to a Texans

656
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 1: question soon. Better chance to win this weekend? Texans don't

657
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 1: play either of these teams. But I'm curious New England

658
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: or Washington. Now, Washington just got rid of two defensive

659
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,880
Speaker 1: players that we all know so well, Montest Sweat and

660
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 1: Chase Young. They're at New England. I don't like this

661
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 1: one at all. And by don't like it, I mean

662
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:44,760
Speaker 1: the Patriots have a shot to win this thing, and

663
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 1: I don't like that.

664
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 3: So you tell me better chance to win this weekend?

665
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 4: Well, I find it interesting that New England's favored by

666
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 4: three and a half. So Vegas thinks, straight up, New

667
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 4: England's better than Washington. Yeah, I don't know if I'm

668
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 4: ready to go there. Washington's kind of been all over

669
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 4: the map. Sometimes they're pretty nasty. I know they can

670
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,959
Speaker 4: make Last week against Philadelphia, they're down or they're ahead,

671
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,840
Speaker 4: give up three straight touchdowns, then get back in it,

672
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 4: but can't get another outside kick.

673
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 3: They lose thirty eight thirty one. They go down to Atlanta.

674
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 4: They beat Atlanta down in Atlanta one week after we

675
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 4: had lost Atlanta in Atlanta.

676
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:22,960
Speaker 3: So the Commander's all over the place.

677
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,120
Speaker 4: I think what we're fighting with the Patriots is they're

678
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 4: just not very good, and they're not very good consistently.

679
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 4: That said, playing in Gillette, I'm gonna give this one

680
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 4: of the Patriots because they have found a little something.

681
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 3: You know, last two weeks ago going to beat the Bills.

682
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 4: Yep, they went down to Miami and they were outgunned

683
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 4: a little bit, but.

684
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 3: They hung in that game.

685
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:45,360
Speaker 4: They got it to I want to say, they got

686
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 4: it to twenty four to seventeen at some point before

687
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 4: the Dolphins put the capron. So I'm gonna go with

688
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 4: the Patriots. I think Vegas is right on this. I

689
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 4: think the Patriots by about three to five is about right.

690
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:59,760
Speaker 1: Damian Pierce banged up, so let's go better chance to

691
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 1: rush for more yards someone from the Texans or Rashad

692
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 1: White for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this weekend.

693
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 4: I was almost gonna say immediately, someone from the Texans,

694
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:14,600
Speaker 4: and I'm like, man, I just keep seeing big number

695
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:15,440
Speaker 4: fifty in front of me.

696
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 3: I keep eating, I keep seeing Vida Bay.

697
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 4: And I'm like, I just have this image back in

698
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 4: twenty nineteen of him just tossing our guys around like

699
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:26,960
Speaker 4: they were throw pills. In fact, that's the comment I

700
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 4: used them. I know your folk with check that out

701
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,279
Speaker 4: Texans dot com. Texas did win the game, but they

702
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,919
Speaker 4: didn't win it because of the offense that day. Yeah,

703
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 4: defense had four picks. You remember how many rushing yards

704
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:37,000
Speaker 4: they had?

705
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:41,000
Speaker 1: What the Bucks? No, the Texans, they had a lot

706
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:41,840
Speaker 1: of rushing yards.

707
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:46,279
Speaker 4: Thirty one that's it, okay, Yeah on nineteen carries. Now,

708
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,360
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, I take it back. Thirty one yards for

709
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:50,880
Speaker 4: their two running backs. DeShawn had thirty seven. They had

710
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:53,520
Speaker 4: thirty one yards and nineteen carries for the two running backs.

711
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:57,360
Speaker 1: Four picks, helped they wiped us pick six off the board.

712
00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 3: I remember did he kick a field goal after that?

713
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 1: It should been more of a route that it was,

714
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 1: but it was still a decisive victory.

715
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:05,200
Speaker 4: Up Yeah, Jamis got them back in it and then

716
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 4: it was a ball game. Then DeAndre Carter, as I

717
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:09,279
Speaker 4: played on Texas matchup the other day, came up big

718
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:11,239
Speaker 4: thirty nine yard catch got him a field goal range

719
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,360
Speaker 4: one that game twenty three twenty. But Texas it's on

720
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 4: able to move the ball against Vitevea in the run

721
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:22,879
Speaker 4: game with their running backs. I don't think Tampa Bay

722
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 4: is all round as good this defense that that defense was,

723
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 4: but you could see the makings of it, like, oh boy,

724
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:34,880
Speaker 4: they're gonna be good. I'm still gonna say the Texans

725
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 4: because I'm gonna be positive about this. I'm gonna say

726
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 4: someone from the Texans because the Bucks just can't run

727
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 4: the football. That offensive line is really struggling. They've got

728
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:44,799
Speaker 4: some youth on it, they've got some inexperience.

729
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 3: They do have.

730
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 4: Tristan Wurf's It's kind of like our our lines when

731
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 4: it was Laramie and then it was a hotspot of

732
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 4: other guys due to injuries and things like that. It's

733
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 4: kind of what the Bucks line is. They have Tristan

734
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:57,359
Speaker 4: Wurf's and then they got a bunch of guys. So

735
00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 4: we'll see how that pans out. But I don't think

736
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,800
Speaker 4: that they're gonna for one hundred at all or get close.

737
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna have to go with the Texans and

738
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 4: just hope they block Vita Vay in some way, shape

739
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 4: or form.

740
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:11,399
Speaker 1: Okay, I said it was who's better? I lied, because yeah,

741
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,880
Speaker 1: there it is more likely to win this weekend in Germany,

742
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:19,400
Speaker 1: Miami or Kansas City. And boy are they so happy

743
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 1: this matchup is in place here in Frankfurt Sunday morning.

744
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 1: This makes you really want to get up and watch

745
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,040
Speaker 1: this game. We will be here at the stadium so

746
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 1: we can watch it on the monitor a little bit.

747
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:32,759
Speaker 1: But I'm kind of pulling for the Dolphins in this one.

748
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,840
Speaker 1: I don't pull for the Chiefs under any circumstances unless

749
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:37,440
Speaker 1: they're playing an AFC South team.

750
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:39,239
Speaker 3: What are your thoughts? I'm going to Dolphins here.

751
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,239
Speaker 4: I do think the Chiefs will bounce back, but I

752
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 4: think the loss to the Broncos, you could, honestly, you

753
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 4: could see it coming. I didn't think it was the

754
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,359
Speaker 4: Broncos that would have done it. But I think if

755
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 4: you looked at the way the Chiefs had been playing,

756
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:53,239
Speaker 4: it was not clean. They didn't play clean against the

757
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,920
Speaker 4: Jets and somehow won that particular game. There were a

758
00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:58,160
Speaker 4: couple of other games where you felt like, hmm, man,

759
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 4: if Kelsey doesn't make these catches, are they gonna win

760
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,280
Speaker 4: that game? It finally caught up to him against the Broncos.

761
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:05,800
Speaker 4: Is everything that could have gone wrong did go wrong.

762
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,640
Speaker 4: I think this time they're running into a buzz sell

763
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 4: with the Dolphins.

764
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:10,799
Speaker 3: I think the Dolphins heard a lot of noise.

765
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 4: I was watching their their post, like their wrap up

766
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:17,520
Speaker 4: video that has all the micd up and stuff, and

767
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 4: it was really really good. And Mike McDaniel talked in

768
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,320
Speaker 4: the locker room. One of the things that he alluded

769
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 4: to was you gotta beat the big boys in this league,

770
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:26,800
Speaker 4: and we got a big boy coming up in Germany.

771
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 4: So they're very aware of the fact that their six

772
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 4: wins have come against teams that they're definitely better than,

773
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,080
Speaker 4: and their two losses have come to teams that they

774
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 4: feel like they're on par with. This one's a big

775
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,120
Speaker 4: one for Miami. I think I think Miami goes and

776
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 4: wins this game. Kan City's favored by a point a half,

777
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:42,720
Speaker 4: but I think can't. I think the Dolphins are gonna

778
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 4: win this game. I think Miami relatively healthy for the

779
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:49,799
Speaker 4: most part, Guy Waddle and Tyreek two was pretty much

780
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:51,800
Speaker 4: locked in. And I just don't believe that the Chiefs.

781
00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:54,880
Speaker 4: This is not the Broncos being the chief twice. I

782
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:56,959
Speaker 4: just think the Chiefs have shown some cracks in the armor,

783
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 4: and I think the Dolphins are gonna sneak in there

784
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:00,359
Speaker 4: and knock them off.

785
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 3: All right? Who's better now? Better team?

786
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 1: The Lions who are on a bye this week or

787
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:07,720
Speaker 1: the Cowboys who are five and two on their way

788
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:12,320
Speaker 1: to Philly. So I can't say here, well, it's based

789
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,840
Speaker 1: on what happens this coming weekend, because that the Cowboys

790
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:16,800
Speaker 1: beat the Eagles. I think I know what the answer

791
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:21,640
Speaker 1: is gonna be. But who's better right now? Cowboys or

792
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:25,799
Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions? And do the Cowboys have a win

793
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:29,759
Speaker 1: as good as the Lions beating Kansas City on opening Day? No,

794
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:31,600
Speaker 1: they don't know, they don't, don't they don't.

795
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:34,399
Speaker 4: But I still would take the Cowboys, And maybe part

796
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 4: of that is maybe part of that is just.

797
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,040
Speaker 3: The Cowboys have been better for longer. I don't know.

798
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:44,319
Speaker 4: You know, I was on the Lions starting last year.

799
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 4: I had told you and mcclam we were sitting right here,

800
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:47,439
Speaker 4: and I said, hey, look out for the Lions. Maybe

801
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:49,440
Speaker 4: not this year, maybe not make the playoffs, but they're

802
00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:50,359
Speaker 4: gonna start making some noise.

803
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,439
Speaker 3: And now it's become a really good football team.

804
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:56,000
Speaker 4: I think the Lions offense using Jamier Gibbs the way

805
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,280
Speaker 4: they did on Monday night kind of peeled back another

806
00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:00,640
Speaker 4: layer of what they can do offensively. That makes them

807
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:05,319
Speaker 4: that much tougher to stop. But I just believe in

808
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 4: that Cowboys defense. When that Cowboys defense is amped up

809
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:11,359
Speaker 4: to level ten, volume ten, I think it's a lot

810
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 4: tougher to move the ball on. I do think the

811
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 4: Lions defense is good, but Baltimore just shredded it. I

812
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:20,480
Speaker 4: mean absolutely shredded it. So I'm gonna go to if

813
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,719
Speaker 4: I did this zero to one hundred, the Lions are

814
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,640
Speaker 4: a ninety one. I think the Cowboys are a ninety

815
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:28,520
Speaker 4: two and a half. Okay, they're that close right there, yeah,

816
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 4: right there.

817
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 3: More likely to happen, more likely to happen.

818
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 1: The Horns get upset by Kansas State or the Aggies

819
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:44,279
Speaker 1: upset all Miss Aggie's on the road, the Longhorns are

820
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,319
Speaker 1: at home against a tough Kansas State team. What's more

821
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 1: likely to happen Kansas State wins or A and M wins.

822
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,719
Speaker 4: Kansas State winning and I think a couple of things.

823
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 4: Number One Texas has got Malik Murphy still going, and

824
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 4: Milik was okay. I mean he managed things, but Ewers

825
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 4: was given them winning plays each week, which is different

826
00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 4: than what he was doing in twenty two. So he

827
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 4: was impacting the game. He was making plus plays the

828
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:10,920
Speaker 4: quarterback position. I think the Leak managed it well and

829
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 4: it did okay, but there's still was just the offense

830
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,839
Speaker 4: was kind of disjointed in a little janky and theyre

831
00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:19,359
Speaker 4: win last week, but they'm getting to win. I think

832
00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:20,800
Speaker 4: now he's got a little bit under his belt. I

833
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 4: think he's gonna be a little bit better. But Kansas

834
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:27,920
Speaker 4: State's a role. They've beaten TCU and Houston now is

835
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 4: at home, but they beat those two teams eighty two

836
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:33,160
Speaker 4: to three combined eighty two to three, So I think

837
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:35,760
Speaker 4: Kansas State's kind of hitting it stride would have surprised

838
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:37,319
Speaker 4: me at all if A and M goes to Old

839
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:38,360
Speaker 4: Miss and beats All Miss.

840
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 3: Heck, no, not at all.

841
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:42,000
Speaker 4: But I just it's more I believe in Kansas State,

842
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:44,719
Speaker 4: not that I don't believe in A and M. I

843
00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:46,799
Speaker 4: believe in Kansas State. I think Kansas State's a really

844
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 4: good team, and in fact, they're facing an offense led

845
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:51,320
Speaker 4: by Malik Murphy and not Quinn Ewers.

846
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:52,520
Speaker 3: I think that gives them a shot to go and

847
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:53,080
Speaker 3: win that game.

848
00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:57,040
Speaker 1: All right, Johnny, thanks a lot, coming Houston Methodist minutes.

849
00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:57,960
Speaker 3: Among other things.

850
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:01,360
Speaker 1: Now, this is sports psychology, right, This is you're on

851
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:05,640
Speaker 1: the golf course, you feel not so good about your round,

852
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 1: and you need to feel better in a hurry, or

853
00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:09,760
Speaker 1: you feel great, but wait a minute, now the wheels

854
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:10,239
Speaker 1: are coming off.

855
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:10,920
Speaker 3: What happened?

856
00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 1: A lot of mental stuff in sports, not just about

857
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:16,799
Speaker 1: golf football obviously, the supplies as well. Let's get into

858
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:19,760
Speaker 1: that next, among other things here on Texans Radio, jumping

859
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,800
Speaker 1: right into the final segment here on Texans All Access

860
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,600
Speaker 1: tonight in advance of what is going to go down

861
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,960
Speaker 1: between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Tennessee Titans tonight. Ghost Steelers,

862
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,440
Speaker 1: Am I supposed to be objective, forget about it. You

863
00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:34,600
Speaker 1: know where my heart is and my head is and

864
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:38,520
Speaker 1: my whole body is with this one. Go Steelers beat

865
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:42,480
Speaker 1: the Titans. Enough on that, Let's get into sports psychology.

866
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,799
Speaker 1: Maybe I need a sports psychologist, but this is more

867
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:50,360
Speaker 1: about performance and having the winning edge and being confident

868
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:54,040
Speaker 1: and overcoming slumps and maybe overconfidence and things like that.

869
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:55,439
Speaker 3: Let's get into it now.

870
00:41:55,520 --> 00:42:00,879
Speaker 1: Houston Methodist minutes with doctor Alicia Robashow And doctor, how's

871
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:01,600
Speaker 1: it going with you?

872
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:04,800
Speaker 5: It's going great? And I loving this cooler.

873
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 3: Weather, cooler weather, and it's football weather.

874
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:11,640
Speaker 1: So let's talk along those lines about sports psychology. How's

875
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:14,440
Speaker 1: that for a transition. But I wanted I wanted to

876
00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:17,400
Speaker 1: do this because I find it interesting. And look, some

877
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:19,799
Speaker 1: of this might apply to the Texans and what they're

878
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:23,200
Speaker 1: going through, but other teams as well, other individual athletes

879
00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 1: as well. And I want to keep it general here,

880
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:29,839
Speaker 1: but let's go here. As you gain success, and maybe

881
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,600
Speaker 1: it's not just in sports but in life, dealing with

882
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:38,160
Speaker 1: that success and maintaining the edge that got you the success,

883
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,759
Speaker 1: how much do you deal with that in your line

884
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 1: of work? And what are some of the nuances involved?

885
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:45,400
Speaker 1: In being able to maintain that edge that people are

886
00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:46,719
Speaker 1: looking for to keep them on top.

887
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,319
Speaker 5: I definitely think I hear more about this with my

888
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:53,520
Speaker 5: elite athletes, but it's really really big in golf because

889
00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 5: you always have to, you know, maintain a certain level

890
00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:58,719
Speaker 5: of playing not one, but three days in a row.

891
00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 5: So has this a lot. My track athletes have it

892
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:04,720
Speaker 5: a lot. My football players always when it gets closer

893
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:10,040
Speaker 5: to playoff time and higher level competitions for swimmers and divers,

894
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:12,959
Speaker 5: et cetera. I think the big thing is that we

895
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,799
Speaker 5: don't get complacent, but we get so excited to have

896
00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:19,520
Speaker 5: reached a higher level of where we want to go

897
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:21,960
Speaker 5: in our sport, whether it's per that year or just

898
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 5: in your personal games, that sometimes we do start to

899
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,839
Speaker 5: lose that competitive edge because we now start to get

900
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:31,160
Speaker 5: nervous that we need to maintain a certain level of performance.

901
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 5: A lot of times we recommend people do meditations, We

902
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:40,040
Speaker 5: recommend going back to what made them good. We recommend

903
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:44,480
Speaker 5: focusing on how you blur out all of the outside

904
00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 5: distractors so that you can keep what you know to

905
00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:50,879
Speaker 5: be true continued. And that's sometimes hard to do when

906
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:53,120
Speaker 5: we feel like people are watching us now or we

907
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:55,359
Speaker 5: have pressure to win, so it does get a little

908
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:56,080
Speaker 5: bit complicated.

909
00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:59,360
Speaker 1: Doctor Alicia Robashow joining us on Huge to Methodist Minutes

910
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,160
Speaker 1: talk about and golf is a great example of this.

911
00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:04,799
Speaker 1: When all right, you played well in the past, but

912
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:06,719
Speaker 1: all of a sudden you're in a funk. You just

913
00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:10,840
Speaker 1: can't hit shots anymore, you lose confidence. What are some

914
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:14,439
Speaker 1: of the things that people can do or do do

915
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:16,440
Speaker 1: to get themselves back on track.

916
00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:19,600
Speaker 5: So visual imagery is a big one. So whether you're

917
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:21,319
Speaker 5: a gymnast or a golfer, a.

918
00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:25,480
Speaker 6: Lot of times we use seeing hitting the ball, seeing

919
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:28,799
Speaker 6: your routine on the bars, seeing you run down to

920
00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:31,160
Speaker 6: the bault and get ready to go and do that vault.

921
00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:34,160
Speaker 6: So visual imagery is a big one. The other thing

922
00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:37,959
Speaker 6: is what makes you calm. If listening to music makes

923
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 6: you calm, do we put on some music anything that

924
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,600
Speaker 6: just makes you go to that place that you're happy,

925
00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:46,520
Speaker 6: you're free and you can just do what skills you know.

926
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:52,360
Speaker 6: So using music is helpful working on positive reinforcement, you know,

927
00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:55,920
Speaker 6: saying I am going to hit this ball two hundred

928
00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,840
Speaker 6: and fifty yards, I am going to stick this vault,

929
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:01,759
Speaker 6: I am going to hit this baseball coming at me

930
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:05,000
Speaker 6: and using positive reinforcement always sounds like a lot of

931
00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:07,879
Speaker 6: mumbo jumbo, but it really does work. And we train

932
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:11,880
Speaker 6: the brain to be susceptible for good thoughts, just like

933
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:15,280
Speaker 6: we train the muscles to be susceptible for good landings

934
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:18,759
Speaker 6: and good twisting and good cutting and pivoting. So you've

935
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:20,239
Speaker 6: got to train the brain to do it when you

936
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:21,000
Speaker 6: need it to work.

937
00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:23,360
Speaker 1: I've got one more for you, doctor. I hear more

938
00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:26,840
Speaker 1: and more about burnout with athletes, no matter what the age.

939
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:30,160
Speaker 1: College athletes who are just tired of the grind, or

940
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:32,799
Speaker 1: maybe even kids who have been playing baseball since they

941
00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:35,200
Speaker 1: were five or six and all of a sudden at

942
00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:38,200
Speaker 1: twelve they semi retire or whatever the case may be.

943
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:40,359
Speaker 3: How much do you deal with that kind of thing?

944
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 1: And I got to imagine it varies from athlete to

945
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:45,920
Speaker 1: athlete as to how severe it is and how it

946
00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 1: affects them it does.

947
00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:51,600
Speaker 5: This is a big problem, especially with athletes in youth sports,

948
00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:55,160
Speaker 5: because a lot of times people will specialize very early,

949
00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:57,440
Speaker 5: and so I have a lot of select baseball players

950
00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 5: or select golf and all these things that all they

951
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:04,000
Speaker 5: do is they play one sport instead of being diverse

952
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:08,560
Speaker 5: and playing several different sports, so there's overuse injuries, there's depression,

953
00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:11,600
Speaker 5: there's a lot of different things that go with subset

954
00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:16,880
Speaker 5: specialty specializations too early. So that's why we always recommend

955
00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:20,319
Speaker 5: that athletes not just pick one sport if possible, but

956
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:22,719
Speaker 5: when they do come in burnt out, a lot of

957
00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:25,200
Speaker 5: times we have to listen to the athlete. Sometimes just

958
00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:27,720
Speaker 5: taking a break for a short period of time doesn't

959
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:31,759
Speaker 5: necessarily mean quitting. It means divert your ideas for a

960
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:34,760
Speaker 5: little while, maybe take up something for a couple of weeks,

961
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:37,440
Speaker 5: give yourself a vacation, just like you might need from

962
00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:39,879
Speaker 5: your job now and then, or school now and then.

963
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:44,000
Speaker 5: Doing the same sport and really training hard sometimes will

964
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 5: burn you out. So being refreshed, getting plenty of sleep,

965
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:52,680
Speaker 5: making sure you're mentally and physically healthy is very important

966
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:55,759
Speaker 5: to avoid burnout. And when we do see it, we

967
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:59,799
Speaker 5: treat the individual person. Sometimes we need medicines, sometimes we

968
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:03,360
Speaker 5: need rest, sometimes we need counseling, and sometimes we just

969
00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:06,600
Speaker 5: need a few days off recoup and we come back

970
00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:09,319
Speaker 5: in full force. It all is very specialized to each

971
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:12,120
Speaker 5: individual athlete, but there's a lot of different approaches. But

972
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:15,360
Speaker 5: talk to your doctor because we can help with those things.

973
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:18,080
Speaker 1: Well, thanks so much for the information, doctor. We appreciate

974
00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:18,720
Speaker 1: the time as.

Speaker 5: Always absolutely happy to be here.

976

977
00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,120
Speaker 1: fun to visit with her on a variety of topics.

978
00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:28,560
