We 23 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:25,320 Speaker 1: had plenty of interviews on Texans Radio with a number 24 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: of players, and you're gonna hear a couple of them 25 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: tonight Tonight's show. Let's just say the theme of it 26 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 1: is Wisconsin. I'm gonna let you chew on that just 27 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 1: a little bit. The theme of tonight's show is Wisconsin, 28 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 1: and I'm sure you could probably figure it out. Then, 29 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: one of the guests we're gonna have on in our 30 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 1: second segment is one Justin James Watt. That's right. JJ 31 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: joined us, Oh, I don't know, back in May about 32 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: a month ago and talked about any number of things 33 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: on a season ticket member called people wanting to know 34 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: what some of his favorite games were, what were some 35 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 1: of his favorite moments. So yes, Pilwaukee, Wisconsin's own JJ 36 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 1: Watt will join us in the second segment. Also, in 37 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 1: our final segment, we will have Randall Cobb. Now, if 38 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 1: you're gonna wait a second, Randall's from Tennessee and he 39 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: played ball Kentucky and then, oh, that's right, he played 40 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: for that team up north and Wisconsin, the Green Bay Packers, 41 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: so Randall Cobb will also join us. We have an 42 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: en chance to catch up with Randalls since he signed 43 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: back in March. But it was a good conversation. And 44 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: you know, when you don't see the team for so long, 45 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: there are times where you go, man, wait, who's all 46 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: on this team? I had that moment earlier today. This 47 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: is gonna sound really strange because I actually called his 48 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,679 Speaker 1: draft pick. But I'm like John Grenards a text. I 49 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: literally told myself out loud. John Grenard is a Texan. 50 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: I don't know why I felt the need to do that, 51 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: but I needed to and I did. And I don't 52 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,359 Speaker 1: want to say I forgot that Randall Cobb was a Texan. 53 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 1: But it's been a while since we heard from him. 54 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 1: So let's hear from the man himself, Randall Cobb tonight 55 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 1: as well. So Justin James Watt played at University of 56 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: Wisconsin from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Randall Cobb played for the Green 57 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 1: Bay Packers in Wisconsin, and me, John Harris, I was 58 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:24,959 Speaker 1: born in Wisconsin, so Wisconsin is the theme. But I 59 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 1: know what you're saying, I know what you're thinking. This 60 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 1: is Houston Texans. Yeah, we're all Texans. Now we're all 61 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: on the same side. Now, we're all on the good 62 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 1: guy's side. Right now. We got randall out of that 63 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: place up north, got him down here down South. We're 64 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: all set and ready to go. Now we're gonna kick 65 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: off today's show, though, with a little bit of news 66 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 1: on a number of different fronts. One has to do 67 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: with the Texans directly. One involves the Texans and thirty 68 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: one other teams, and one involves a team that I 69 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: don't really really want to talk too much about, but 70 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: I want to start with the one right off the 71 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: bat that includes one of our Texas. He's been here 72 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: since twenty fourteen.

Now, if 98 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: you gonna wait a second, okay, Well, who are some 99 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: of the men that have earned this award prior to Well, 100 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 1: here are some of the names.

He's 114 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: amazing special teams coach Romeo Crennell named Paul doctor z 115 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: Zerman Award winner for the year twenty twenty, alongside one 116 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: of the great defensive coordinators of all time, Bill Arren Sparker. 117 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: I asked Mark this question. We're talking one day, I 118 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: think actually asked John Claim this question about Wade Phillips 119 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 1: and Romeo Cornell. Could you see a situation where a 120 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: coordinator or a man that spent a majority of his 121 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: career as a coordinator and that's what he's most known for. 122 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: Could that man go into the Hall of Fame? Could 123 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: he be voted in the Hall of Fame. I would 124 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: love to see Rack have an opportunity to go to 125 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame.

Just listen 127 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: to those names that he's with now. I think Dick 128 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: Lebou is in the Hall of Fame, but I believe 129 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: that was for his playing days, so and Emma Smith, 130 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: Emma Thomas, m Smith, Emma Thomas the same way Me 131 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: Thomas is in for his playing days.

The 170 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: NFL advised teams that training camps are expected to begin 171 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: as scheduled on July twenty eighth, with rookies and selected 172 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 1: players permitted to report earlier. Now, if you're thinking, well, 173 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,679 Speaker 1: July twenty eighth, is that the Texans, Yes, the Texans, 174 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 1: because they will play that first game against the Kansas 175 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: City Chiefs. I believe. I believe if my math is correct, 176 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: July twenty eighth is forty seven days out. I could 177 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: be wrong. I'm trying to do the math in my head, 178 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: and that's not always a good thing when you're talking 179 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: on the air. Now I can usually do in my head, 180 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 1: but I can't do math to talk at the same time, 181 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 1: although I was a math teacher. General Counsel Jeff passed 182 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 1: at a conference call late last week that the NFL's 183 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: advised teams at training camps are expected to begin on time. 184 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: Now we are still I know we are still waiting 185 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 1: to hear who's invited, who can be there. Fans, no fans, 186 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: my guests is training camp will be without fans this year. 187 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: But I know that our department, in particular our marketing department, 188 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: Jennifer Davenport and her crew are working on ways to 189 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:32,719 Speaker 1: make training camps still a what's the right way of 190 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: saying something that the fans can take part in in 191 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: some way, shape or form virtually and enjoy it. And 192 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:45,839 Speaker 1: we're trying to figure out if we can do that 193 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 1: as well as media members. I don't know what we're 194 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: going to be allowed to do. I don't know how 195 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 1: we'll be able to bring it to you, but we 196 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,679 Speaker 1: are going to do everything that we can to do 197 00:11:55,320 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: just that. So training camps are going to art on 198 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: time as it sits today. I feel like I've had 199 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:10,679 Speaker 1: to say that way too many times, but that is 200 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 1: definitely a caveat that just goes. It almost goes without saying. 201 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: Even if I don't say it, just know that I'm 202 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 1: saying it. It goes without saying as long as things 203 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: don't change. Now, obviously things have changed here in Houston 204 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: over the last a couple of weeks, and so we've 205 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: had to scale back. We've now gone back to a 206 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:35,959 Speaker 1: level one. We need to get all the way to 207 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: level four. So wear your mask, be healthy, keep everybody healthy, 208 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:44,559 Speaker 1: and hopefully we can start to reopen again and get 209 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: this state going the way that we'd like it to go. 210 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 1: So training camps still scheduled to start on time as 211 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: of right now. Okay, now when training camps do start. 212 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,719 Speaker 1: The third and final item and one that oh I 213 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 1: saw this yesterday and I went told you, this is 214 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: something I've been thinking about for a while, and I've 215 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 1: said numerous times Texans Radio. I've said it numerous times 216 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: on interviews throughout the country. I knew, I just knew. 217 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: Cam Newton signed a one year incentive Leyden deal yesterday 218 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 1: with the New England Patriots. Now I will say this. 219 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: I'm glad it was not Jacksonville. I thought at first 220 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 1: it might be Jacksonville. Now that might be a little 221 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: bit shortsighted thinking that, Well, if he went to Jacksonville, 222 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: yes you have to face him twice a year. But 223 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: if things stay the way they are in Jacksonville and 224 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:54,079 Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew really doesn't take a step up the Jags tank, 225 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 1: they get Trevor Lawrence, and now we gotta face Trevor 226 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: Lawrence twice a year for the next how many every 227 00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,959 Speaker 1: years as supposed to Cam Newton a couple of times 228 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: year for the next I don't know, two three years, 229 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 1: so maybe, But I just didn't want to see right 230 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: now Cam Newton be in Jacksonville. The other place they 231 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: want to see him was in New England. But it 232 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 1: made sense to me that New England would be where 233 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 1: Cam Newton was going to end up. And I heard 234 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: all the talk about well Jared Stidham. I heard an 235 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: interview and I can't remember who this was, was on 236 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: CBS Sports Radio. It was late one night. I had 237 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 1: to go to Kroger for something and I got in 238 00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: a car and it was on six ten and CBS 239 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: radio or intercom or whatever it is now. It was 240 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: on and there was an interview and I believe it 241 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: was Gary Myers, and Gary Myers was talking about Jared Stidham, 242 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: but he wasn't talking about Jared Stidham because he was 243 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 1: talking about Tom Brady. And the point he was making 244 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 1: about Tom Brady was that back in two thousand and one, 245 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 1: he said Bill Belichick wanted to name Tom Brady the 246 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 1: starting quarterback. He said Brady earned it, he had the 247 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 1: better training camp. He wanted Brady to be the starter, 248 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 1: but Drew Bledsoe had gotten a lot of money from 249 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 1: the team, his owner really wanted Drew bledso to be 250 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 1: the guy he inbucked the system, and so he went 251 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: with it. And Myers surmised that Belichick maybe regretted in 252 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 1: some sense they didn't go the gut that being Brady 253 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 1: early on, and he said, maybe that's why you haven't 254 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: seen anything done with Jared's did him that Jared's did him? 255 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 1: Is that guy maybe they believe. And he wasn't saying 256 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: maybe as if impossible. He was saying, I think that's 257 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 1: the case. I don't know that that ever was the case. 258 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 1: And now we get to see Cam Newton in a Patriots, Jersey. 259 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: I've at first kind of joked about it, like man 260 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 1: Camp Newton and Bill Belichick is going to be an experiment. 261 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 1: But the more I thought about, the more it made 262 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: sense to me. Josh McDaniels has seemingly wanted a quarterback 263 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 1: that can move, that could be mobile, that you can 264 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 1: add that part, that part to an offense, which obviously 265 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 1: with Tom Brady you were not going to. I think 266 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: they've probably been itching for something like that. Now, Jared 267 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: sidmcon run the ball, So I mean, that's that's there. 268 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: I mean, he's a good, really good athlete. But Cam 269 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 1: Newton that comes in and I don't I just don't 270 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: know how there's going to be a competition. But Cam's 271 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: got to learn that offense. He's got to get it rolling. 272 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 1: And here's the thing. As much as I would say, 273 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: oh yeah, he's gotta learn that offense, he's got he's 274 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 1: got to learn the basics because that offense is now 275 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: if Cam is gonna end up being the guy, they're 276 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 1: gonna have to streamline that thing and create things that 277 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: are just for Cam. When Cam becomes the starter, they're 278 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: gonna be new things in that offense that even Jared's 279 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: didn't Brian Hoyer, haven't run because they're gonna come up 280 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: with it. As they signed Cam Newton. They're probably sitting 281 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 1: there going now. Even before they signed Cam Newton, I 282 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: guarantee you Belle Check called mcgannis is like, look, can 283 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: we do this? Do we have enough? Do we need 284 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: to playbook? Do we have They've gone through that entire scenario. 285 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: I have a pretty lousy feeling that we didn't see 286 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:18,880 Speaker 1: Cam Newton in twenty nineteen with the Carolina Panthers, which 287 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: I was like, okay, just one time, get him in 288 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: and get him out. Now we're gonna see him in 289 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. We're the New England Patriots against the Houston Texans. 290 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 1: This is a very layered, complex sort of thing. In 291 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 1: some sense. Where's Cam's health? He's been banged up the 292 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: last couple of years. How does he get along with 293 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,680 Speaker 1: Patriots coaching staff? And then what does he have left 294 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: in the tank after the physical abuse on the field 295 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: He's taken for so long. But if any place he 296 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:53,160 Speaker 1: could have gone for Cam Newton, New England is probably 297 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: the best. And God, I can't believe I'm about to 298 00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 1: say this, but can you imagine the Patriots winning a 299 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: Super Bowl with Cam Newton the year after Tom Brady leaves. 300 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 1: I don't, I can't. That's a mots of ball soul thing. 301 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 1: I don't even want to get through that thing. I don't. 302 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 1: I just want to report the news on this and 303 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 1: that is Cam Newton's a Patriot, and I think it 304 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: makes me want to throw up in some sense. But 305 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:25,880 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a really interesting experiment to watch from afar. 306 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,360 Speaker 1: So there you go. Rack wins an award, a much 307 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: deserved award. An atheg gonna start training camp on time. 308 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: Cam Newton is the newest New England Patriot. Hooy.

Patriots have a better head coach, they 394 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 1: have a better defense, they have a better running game. 395 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 1: There's no way you can say, if he's healthy that 396 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 1: the Patriots are not better than the Houston Texts in 397 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: the loop with Lendry and Lopez weekdays at ten, Houston's 398 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 1: sports Leader sports Radio six ten.

Yes, you're starting corner celebrating another birthday, GC. 405 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 1: Happy birthday, glad you with us. Can't wait to see 406 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:44,399 Speaker 1: what you do in year number two with the Houston Texas, which, oh, 407 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,920 Speaker 1: by the way, I know at some point there was 408 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 1: this debate and I don't know if it was on 409 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 1: Twitter where it was, it was Texas versus LSU. Who 410 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 1: was DBU. Well, I would kind of kick Texas to 411 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 1: the curb in that no offense law horns, but take 412 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:07,400 Speaker 1: offense Ohio State, Gary Ann Conley, Marshawn Lattimore, Bradley, Robie 413 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:14,160 Speaker 1: Almos said, Davious what he's LSU? Sorry, Jeffrey Okuda, I'm 414 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 1: just scratching the surface. Lee Hooker at safety with the 415 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:22,400 Speaker 1: Colts Ohio State, Denzel warped to Cleveland Browns man DBU 416 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: was in Columbus. I hate to say, I hate to 417 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 1: say it. LSU's pretty arm good, but if you want 418 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 1: to debate, it's LSUN Ohio State. Nobody else really gets 419 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 1: in that mix. For DBU, it's those two. So Wisconsin maybe, 420 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,159 Speaker 1: but I do know the University of Wisconsin had one 421 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: heck of a defensive end in twenty ten who put 422 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 1: on a show each and every time he went on 423 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: a field. In twenty eleven, he was then drafted with 424 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 1: pick number eleven by the Houston Texas. Now, famously people 425 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: did not like to pick at the time, but I 426 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 1: would say nine years later, heading into season number ten, 427 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:06,640 Speaker 1: people have been very very happy with j J WAT 428 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: season ticket members. A lot of them, I would say, 429 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 1: have some feature piece of merchandise that has number ninety 430 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 1: nine on it and they sit in that stadium cheering 431 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:19,920 Speaker 1: for that man, and hopefully they'll get a chance to 432 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 1: do that this year. Don't know if it will happen, 433 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 1: hope so, but the season ticket members had a chance 434 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 1: to catch up with jj Mark led the discussion and 435 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 1: talked about a number of different things with number ninety 436 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 1: nine about this offseason and beyond JJ. We've seen a 437 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 1: bunch of you this offseason, Wedding Picks, Wisconsin Weather Reports, 438 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,200 Speaker 1: your TV show. How's it going. It's going well, you know. 439 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously it's an unfortunate situation that we're all 440 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 1: in right now. But I'm very fortunate and thankful to 441 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 1: being a situation where I got to spend time with 442 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 1: my wife and my brothers and work out through it all. 443 00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: So I consider myself lucky. And your dogs too, right, Yes, 444 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: my dogs too. They are loving this more than anybody. 445 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,399 Speaker 1: They They have chased the tennis ball more times than 446 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 1: they have in their entire life combined in these last 447 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 1: three months. Yeah, they are like social media superstars. Okay, 448 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: we have some questions from the season ticket members for you. 449 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 1: Let's get right to them here. Joel starts us off 450 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 1: with what career accomplishment are you most proud of in 451 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 1: the NFL? Might be a tough one, but what are 452 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: your thoughts on that? That's a great question. I mean, 453 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 1: in terms of career accomplishment in the NFL, I think 454 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:33,920 Speaker 1: it would have to be the Walter Peyton Man of 455 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: the Year Award. Over eightmails, I mean just because of 456 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: what it means and what it stands for in terms 457 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 1: of on the field, off the field, and all the 458 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 1: people who helped me earn that and get that and 459 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 1: the people who have built me to this point. So 460 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 1: I think in terms of that, that's what I would say. 461 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 1: In terms of on the field, I mean, the first 462 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 1: playoff game win for the Houston Texans in history will 463 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 1: always be a special one for me. It will always 464 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 1: be a special moment, a special memory. But I really 465 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 1: really really look forward to creating new memories much better 466 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,359 Speaker 1: than that. You know, in the first playoff win and 467 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 1: the latest playoff win, you had big moments in each 468 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:12,119 Speaker 1: of those games. And I got to think that in 469 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 1: the latest playoff win with that big sack, you had 470 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,200 Speaker 1: that trend, the momentum in the game. It's different than 471 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 1: your rookie year when you had to pick six. It's 472 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: got to feel different because you have all that experience 473 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 1: under your belt. Yeah, this year's was special because it 474 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 1: was coming back off the injury. I don't think anybody 475 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: really knew what to expect. I had an idea of 476 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 1: what they expect, but didn't fully know. And just to 477 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: be able to come back have that impact in a 478 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 1: playoff game that meant a lot to me, and just 479 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 1: to be able to help us win. I mean, that's 480 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: everything that I do is to help the team win 481 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 1: in that in that instance, it did, and I'm very 482 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 1: thankful for that. All right, next question comes from Giles. 483 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 1: Any pregame traditions or superstitions. Well, we know about playing 484 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: catch with the fans, which we hope that can happen 485 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 1: this year, but what about your pregame ritual JJ, Yeah, 486 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 1: And I mean mine has always been, you know, playing 487 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 1: catch with the fans thing, so I hope that we 488 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 1: can continue that. Otherwise I don't know. I'm going to 489 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: fill my time for that thirty minute slot before the game. 490 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: But other than that, I've learned over the years that 491 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 1: the more loose and free I am, the better I play. 492 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 1: So if I used to, you know, early on in 493 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 1: my career, was like make sure you get taped at 494 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 1: this exact time, get taped this way, you know, left foot, 495 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 1: right foot. But now I've learned that the more I 496 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 1: kind of get inside my own head when I do that, 497 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 1: so it's actually just being loose and free. I kind 498 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: of joke around with some of the guys I'll go 499 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: hang out with the training staff for a little bit 500 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 1: and just just try and keep it loose and fun 501 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: because I've done all the hard work. You know, once 502 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 1: you get the game day, all the workers in the bag. 503 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 1: Now it's time to just go out there and play. 504 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: And if you get yourself too tense, you can't do 505 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: what you need to do. Okay. Sean wants to know 506 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 1: which player and coach has the best sense of humor. 507 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 1: Any examples you can share, So maybe some guys over 508 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 1: the years, A couple, I mean right now, We've I love, 509 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 1: We've Anthony Weaver coaching de coordinator. Now, he's awesome. He's 510 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,959 Speaker 1: got a great personality. Rack Romeo has a great personality. 511 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 1: Who I mean, I guess this is a team de 512 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 1: coordinators Over the years I've had We've Rack Wade Phillips 513 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:17,480 Speaker 1: had an incredible personality and jokes. So it's just in 514 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 1: Wade and Rack. You know, they're kind of older guys 515 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: and they have some great experience and they have some 516 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 1: stories to tell from the old days. So yeah, it's 517 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 1: I've been fortunate to have good guys around. Willie wants 518 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 1: to go just curious if the two Frisbees are still 519 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 1: on your room. Yeah, that they are. I mean people 520 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 1: keep like, get a ladder, get a ladder. Yeah, that's 521 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 1: the last thing. I think anybody in the team wants 522 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:46,720 Speaker 1: to see me climbing on a ladder in the back 523 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: of that yard. So, I mean, there's been some serious thunders. 524 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: There's a crazy thunderstorm two nights ago, and Frisbee stuck 525 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: up there, so I think they might be up there 526 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: for a while. I've switched the tennis balls, and I 527 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 1: have no problem with tennis balls because I'm very accurate 528 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 1: with those. Yeah, ladders can be trouble, no doubt. Alfredo, 529 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 1: congratulations on the TV show.

Rhoda wants to know what have you 552 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 1: learned about doing the TV show, doing this open to 553 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 1: tag production changement. I've learned that my brothers and I 554 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 1: get along extremely well. We have so much fun when 555 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 1: we're together. But I think there's also a time limit 556 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 1: to our hanging out in a certain day. So a 557 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 1: couple of the shoot days, so every day what we 558 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 1: would do we'd go to UCLA. We would train for 559 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 1: two or three hours in the morning, and then we'd 560 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 1: go over to the Ultimate Tag set and we would 561 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 1: film for the rest of the day. And one day, 562 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 1: I mean we had to start our workout at like 563 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 1: six am and we went straight over to the set 564 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 1: after and we didn't get done on a set until 565 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: I think it was midnight, one o'clock. And by the 566 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 1: end of that amount of time with us together having 567 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 1: worked out in the morning, so we're a little tired. 568 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 1: We were about to knock each other out. I think 569 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 1: one of us wanted to throw the other one off 570 00:32:55,680 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 1: of the doma with no pad underneath. You know what, Agil. 571 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 1: That reminds me of Jordan shooting Space Jam And I'm 572 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 1: sure you saw that. The workouts they had and he 573 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 1: would shoot the movie during the day. It was crazy stuff. Yeah, yeah, 574 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 1: that was That was such a cool the Jordan Dome 575 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 1: that they built on the Warner Brothers set. You need 576 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 1: a what dome? Sarah? How has the Defense State connected 577 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 1: virtually in the off season? We know you're on the 578 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 1: Zoom calls. How's that been for you? Jj? It's actually 579 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 1: been going really well. You know, I was slightly skeptical 580 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 1: about it to start because I didn't know how much, 581 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 1: you know, people talking over each other, trying to get 582 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 1: the information across. But it's actually been very effective, especially 583 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:35,560 Speaker 1: in our d line group. We have great communication. We've 584 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 1: does a great job getting the information across. It's been 585 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: a lot of fun actually because we get to see 586 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 1: each other and we haven't gotten to see each other 587 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 1: for so long. Now we're trying to figure out with 588 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: the guidelines and with the rules, if there's a way 589 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 1: we can get together in small groups to do walk 590 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 1: throughs just to get through our plays, because that helps 591 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 1: a lot. But at the current moment, the Zoom meetings 592 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 1: are what we have and we're going to continue with them, 593 00:33:55,440 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: and they've been good. Okay. A question from Nelson's daughters, 594 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 1: ages six and nine. So Nelson's daughters want to know, 595 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: at what age did you know you wanted to be 596 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:13,320 Speaker 1: a professional football player. Uh, that's a great question, Nelson's daughters. So, 597 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 1: I actually started out playing hockey. So I started skating 598 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,440 Speaker 1: when I was three years old, and throughout most of 599 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 1: my childhood I grew up wanting to play in the NHL. 600 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 1: I mean I grew up watching you know, all the 601 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 1: old Gordy Howe, Chris Chelios. I mean just a bunch 602 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: of guys. Obviously, Wayne Gretzky, So I wanted to play 603 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 1: in the NHL. At some point it got too expensive 604 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,800 Speaker 1: and we couldn't afford it anymore. So I didn't. I 605 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 1: had to stop playing hockey. I cried my eyes out. 606 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,759 Speaker 1: I mean, it was just it was a terrible I cried. 607 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 1: I feel bad to this day, crying because I made 608 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 1: my parents feel bad. But then I kind of shifted 609 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:49,560 Speaker 1: my focus to baseball and football, and I had to 610 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:51,799 Speaker 1: kind of my sophomore year high school, I decided between 611 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,400 Speaker 1: football and baseball, and I chose football. And at that 612 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 1: point it's kind of when I said, all right, I'm 613 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:58,400 Speaker 1: one hundred percent all in on football, let's make this 614 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 1: thing work. You have played in Houston for a minute, too, 615 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,479 Speaker 1: and were you a defenseman? I was actually a center. 616 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 1: I think I would have had a change over time. 617 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 1: I'm a little too big now, but I was the 618 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:10,840 Speaker 1: center goal scorer back in the day. It could be 619 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 1: a goalie too, all right. Robert wants to know if 620 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 1: you joined Ultimate Tag as a tagger, what would be 621 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 1: your tag name and what name would you give to 622 00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:23,440 Speaker 1: your brothers? Putting on the spot? Oh man, that is 623 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,840 Speaker 1: a on the spot. That's a tough on the spot 624 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 1: my name, um, oh jeez, I mean I'll go with 625 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 1: the name they gave me from a rookie year.

Oh boy, this garret, this 628 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 1: could be bad. I mean I could go any direction 629 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 1: I want with this. This is this is just this 630 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 1: text of the season tier holders. This isn't like my 631 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 1: brothers are gonna see it. I'd go with like puppy 632 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:52,360 Speaker 1: Dog one and puppy Dog too. I don't know, something simple, 633 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 1: you know. Okay, sometimes we repurpose this, by the way, 634 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:59,919 Speaker 1: but okay, uh, there's anything material. Gary. Is it true 635 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 1: you used to get your mail riding a segue and 636 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:07,720 Speaker 1: do you still have it? All? Right? It is true. 637 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 1: When I used to live in Parlandum, the neighborhood I 638 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:13,880 Speaker 1: lived in, your mailbox was like one of those community 639 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:17,320 Speaker 1: mailboxes where it was way down the street. So I 640 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 1: would ride a segue to my mailbox, grab the mail, 641 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 1: and come back. I do still have the segue in Wisconsin, 642 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:27,319 Speaker 1: but it is no longer working. I can't figure out 643 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 1: how to get it to work. I think the battery 644 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:31,880 Speaker 1: died and I haven't it's since sitting in my garage, 645 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,200 Speaker 1: all right, JJ, riding down the street in a segue. 646 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:40,320 Speaker 1: That's a site Jason. As an elementary school educator, I 647 00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:44,440 Speaker 1: was wondering what type of student you were, says Jason, 648 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:48,800 Speaker 1: what d um. Unfortunately I was a good student. You know. 649 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,320 Speaker 1: My parents kind of they kind of divvied up the roles. 650 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 1: So my dad was very hard on us in sports, 651 00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 1: making sure that we did our practices, we did extra work, 652 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 1: we ran, we did all that. And my mom was 653 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:00,400 Speaker 1: very hard on us in the school, making sure we 654 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,279 Speaker 1: did our schoolwork, making sure we did our homework. So 655 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,759 Speaker 1: we had, you know, kind of get an attack from 656 00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 1: both angles. You really didn't have any choice but to 657 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:10,360 Speaker 1: be a good student. So I was lucky to have that. 658 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 1: At the time, I didn't enjoy it, but I'm looking 659 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:15,279 Speaker 1: back and I'm very thankful that my parents did that. Fore, 660 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 1: all right, JJ, I'm also a season ticket member. So 661 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:20,960 Speaker 1: this is the last one your rookie year. I did 662 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 1: a show with Connor Barwin and Seohn Cody, and they 663 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:26,440 Speaker 1: talked about rookie JJ Watt and that you had a 664 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 1: life plan and they were very impressed with you. You 665 00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,759 Speaker 1: were kind of semi teasing, but they were impressed. So 666 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 1: did you have a life plan and how's the plan 667 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:40,799 Speaker 1: working out versus you know, your expectations of the plan. Oh, 668 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 1: I mean I think that I certainly had goals, that's 669 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 1: for sure. I mean I always have goals. I write 670 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:49,840 Speaker 1: down my goals, things I wanted to accomplish rookie shoot 671 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:51,880 Speaker 1: back in twenty eleven. I mean, if you looked at 672 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:56,120 Speaker 1: my five year plan, I mean, the number one goal 673 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 1: for me was to win a super Bowl and bring 674 00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,120 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl to Houston. So that's the one I'm 675 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:02,799 Speaker 1: still working on. I'm still that is my number one goal. 676 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,080 Speaker 1: I want to accomplish that for this city, for these people, 677 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: for our team, for our fans. So I'm still working 678 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:11,439 Speaker 1: on that. But in terms of where I'm at in life, 679 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 1: I'm fortunate enough to be married. I mean, I have 680 00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:17,839 Speaker 1: an incredible home here in Houston. I'm a television show 681 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:19,879 Speaker 1: on TV. I mean I got to host Saturday Night Live. 682 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 1: I mean the things I've gotten to accomplish, the people 683 00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 1: I've gotten to meet, the experience I've gotten to have, 684 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:26,759 Speaker 1: I couldn't be more thankful for where I am. So 685 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 1: I would say that even if you whatever my plan was, 686 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 1: there's only one thing missing from it now, and that's 687 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:38,960 Speaker 1: my goal. It's hard to believe nine years ago. Actually 688 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 1: at this time, it was hard to believe we were 689 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 1: about to play football nine years ago because of the 690 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 1: player lockout. But nine years ago, could you imagine JJ 691 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,839 Speaker 1: Watt would be where he is at this particular point 692 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 1: television show the Greatest defensive Players of all time and 693 00:38:55,880 --> 00:39:00,239 Speaker 1: just looking for that Super Bowl ring to fill out 694 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 1: the resume, if you will, and hopefully hopefully he will 695 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 1: end up getting that very very soon. I I'd like 696 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:13,239 Speaker 1: to know if the movie tag was an inspiration for JJ, 697 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 1: Derek and TJ to put that show together. It's really 698 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: it's really a fun watch. I wasn't totally sure if 699 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:23,240 Speaker 1: I would like it, but it's a pretty fun watch. 700 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 1: So go ahead and check that out JJ's show tag 701 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:29,720 Speaker 1: on Fox. So there you go, now, I said earlier 702 00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 1: the theme of this show was Wisconsin and let's no 703 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:39,160 Speaker 1: knock on Texas. But JJ born and raised in Wisconsin. 704 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:42,680 Speaker 1: I was born in Wisconsin, but I got here as 705 00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 1: fast as I could, and our next guest started his 706 00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:51,080 Speaker 1: professional career in the state of Wisconsin. We went to 707 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:54,319 Speaker 1: training camp last year in the state of Wisconsin. Same place, 708 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 1: Green Bay, Wisconsin, the Green Bay Packers, and it was 709 00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 1: Randall Cobb before he spent one year with Dallas Cowboys. 710 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 1: He called Green Bay, Wisconsin at least his season long home. 711 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:11,399 Speaker 1: Now it's Houston, and we had a chance to catch 712 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:16,240 Speaker 1: up with him shortly after he had signed with the team, 713 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:18,759 Speaker 1: and he caught up with Mark vannim Well had that 714 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 1: for you.

I'm 822 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:41,200 Speaker 1: gonna try and keep it on the tracks, stay on 823 00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:43,800 Speaker 1: the straight and narrow. I usually do that for the 824 00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:47,840 Speaker 1: most part, but Mark knows. Yeah, you can get a 825 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,480 Speaker 1: little excited about some things, kind of like Cam Newton 826 00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:52,319 Speaker 1: going to New England. I'm sure the fans of New 827 00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:55,359 Speaker 1: England pretty excited about that. I'm not. I would say 828 00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,480 Speaker 1: it all off season. I sort of braced myself for it. 829 00:46:57,960 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 1: I was out getting groceries yesterday and I gotta tech 830 00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:05,880 Speaker 1: from Jay mcdimcdevitt are digital and social guru, and it 831 00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:08,440 Speaker 1: was I think it was Schefter's tweet and just said 832 00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:10,880 Speaker 1: Cam's going to England as Robacks, Like told you, I 833 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:15,040 Speaker 1: told you this was gonna happen, told you. The flip 834 00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:16,840 Speaker 1: side of that is he's not going to Jacksonville. And 835 00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:19,719 Speaker 1: I can't figure out if I'm happy with that or 836 00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:23,960 Speaker 1: I'm not happy with that because I'm not totally buying 837 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:27,520 Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew is the guy in Jacksonville. So they had Cam. 838 00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:32,680 Speaker 1: They certainly were not gonna lose fourteen games thirteen games 839 00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:35,040 Speaker 1: with Cam as the starter. They were gonna at least 840 00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:36,759 Speaker 1: win a few That wouldn't get the number one pick. 841 00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 1: They would not get Trevor Lawrence, they would not get 842 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 1: Justin Fields. What Gardner minshew Jacksonville, there's a chance that 843 00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 1: Jacksonville could end up with the number one pick. A 844 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:50,319 Speaker 1: lot of people think that's the team they'll end up 845 00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 1: with it. I think that team has got even it's young, 846 00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 1: it's got too much talent to finish worst team in 847 00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,040 Speaker 1: the league. I think Jacksonville is gonna be better before 848 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:02,600 Speaker 1: too long, before we realize. But maybe not this year. 849 00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:04,840 Speaker 1: They gotta get their quarterback thing right. Maybe they got 850 00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:06,880 Speaker 1: the guy who Menshoe. Maybe not. We'll find out, and 851 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:09,960 Speaker 1: we'll find out very soon. Now. That leads me to 852 00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:13,279 Speaker 1: the Texans in twenty twenty. In a new Texan in 853 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:17,560 Speaker 1: twenty twenty, and that is Randall Cobb. Mark had a 854 00:48:17,640 --> 00:48:20,560 Speaker 1: chance to catch up with him shortly after he signed 855 00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:23,200 Speaker 1: his contract. Was great to hear from the former Packer 856 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:25,920 Speaker 1: Randall Cobb, who is now at current Texas. Here you 857 00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 1: are entering year ten, so how does it feel to 858 00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:31,800 Speaker 1: be one of those guys now to the younger folk 859 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:35,360 Speaker 1: as you venture into this season. Yeah, it's definitely crazy 860 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 1: Town definitely goes by fast. I feel like I was 861 00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:39,879 Speaker 1: just the rookie coming into the league and being able 862 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 1: to watch those guys that work and learn from them, 863 00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:45,120 Speaker 1: and you know, now being that veteran president. You know, 864 00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:47,880 Speaker 1: obviously every year it changes, and I think first and 865 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:51,560 Speaker 1: foremost is just earner respecting my teammates and you know, 866 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:54,600 Speaker 1: doing everything I can, working hard as far as I 867 00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:57,320 Speaker 1: can to show them how committed I am to this 868 00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:01,839 Speaker 1: team and also just there to help mentor and help 869 00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:04,280 Speaker 1: them in any way possible that I can. And Donald 870 00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:07,359 Speaker 1: Driver at Houstonian, So that's pretty cool stuff. Now being 871 00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:10,040 Speaker 1: new in Dallas, now you're new in Houston. What's it 872 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:13,080 Speaker 1: like being the new guy even though you're a veteran 873 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,359 Speaker 1: in some ways? Is it like being a rookie again? 874 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:18,319 Speaker 1: It is, just because you know, obviously, it's a it's 875 00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:22,440 Speaker 1: a new circumstance. You really don't know everybody, and you 876 00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:24,000 Speaker 1: really don't know where you sit in or how you 877 00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:26,759 Speaker 1: used to sit in. So you know, you just gotta 878 00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:29,040 Speaker 1: be yourself and and come in do what you do 879 00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:32,560 Speaker 1: and and and show everybody that you commit it to 880 00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:34,520 Speaker 1: the team, that committed to being the best that you 881 00:49:34,600 --> 00:49:36,080 Speaker 1: can be, to us to have the team to the 882 00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:38,320 Speaker 1: best that they can use. So uh, you know, I 883 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:40,279 Speaker 1: look forward to the challenge and look forward to the 884 00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:42,719 Speaker 1: new opportunity. Randall, we know you can do a whole 885 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:45,400 Speaker 1: lot of things. And uh, playing in the slot, what 886 00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:49,320 Speaker 1: makes it so tough, so unique to be a slot player? 887 00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 1: As we hear your dog barking in the background, Yeah, 888 00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 1: that's one of the neighborhood dogs. So it's actually nice 889 00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:56,400 Speaker 1: here for the first time in a few weeks, so 890 00:49:57,719 --> 00:50:01,400 Speaker 1: I stepped out in the backyard. But I, uh, the 891 00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:05,920 Speaker 1: biggest thing about the slot is just understanding spacing, understanding zones, 892 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:09,239 Speaker 1: being able to see coverages because you know, obviously with 893 00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:13,799 Speaker 1: with in NFL, the safety's role coverage is being able 894 00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:17,000 Speaker 1: to pick up the blitz and hot adjustments off the blitz. 895 00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:19,000 Speaker 1: There's a there's a lot of thinking that goes in 896 00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:22,200 Speaker 1: through it. And when whenever you're able to play in 897 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:26,080 Speaker 1: the slot and and and be able to maneuver uh 898 00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:29,719 Speaker 1: in and out of your breaks and create separations, uh 899 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:32,040 Speaker 1: and working in the middle of the field, I think 900 00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:35,880 Speaker 1: it helps out the offense can uh in a different way. Uh, 901 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:39,600 Speaker 1: it opens up the outside or whenever you're able to 902 00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:42,960 Speaker 1: make plays inside. I'm old enough to remember you at 903 00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 1: Kentucky playing some quarterback. Are you gonna lobby to be 904 00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:49,680 Speaker 1: the emergency third string guy for this team? Yeah? I 905 00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:51,600 Speaker 1: mean I've been. I've been in emergency gout in my 906 00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:54,520 Speaker 1: whole career, so uh, you know, hopefully that don't change 907 00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:56,759 Speaker 1: as well. You know, I can't quite throw it like 908 00:50:56,840 --> 00:50:59,279 Speaker 1: I used to, but uh, you know, I think I 909 00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:01,239 Speaker 1: can still get back there and hold my home. But 910 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:04,279 Speaker 1: hopefully it never gets to that point. I don't think 911 00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:08,160 Speaker 1: anybody really wants to see that. Randall Cobb joining us. Randall, 912 00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:10,919 Speaker 1: what about Houston? What do you know about Houston after 913 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,960 Speaker 1: spending a year in Dallas and whatever else you've experienced 914 00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:18,040 Speaker 1: in your life. Well, I have only been to Houston twice, 915 00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:21,640 Speaker 1: once for the Super Bowl a few years ago. I 916 00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:23,600 Speaker 1: was done there for a few days before, and then 917 00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:28,160 Speaker 1: whenever we played Houston when I was in Green Bay 918 00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:32,839 Speaker 1: and twelve twelve, so it was a long time ago. 919 00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:35,279 Speaker 1: So I really, I really don't know too much about 920 00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:39,560 Speaker 1: Houston as a city. You know, I know that football 921 00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:42,400 Speaker 1: is king in Texas. I've learned that being in Dallas 922 00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:44,920 Speaker 1: last year, and I'm sure it's the same in Houston. 923 00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:49,440 Speaker 1: Football's king and everybody loved the game. And you know 924 00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:53,759 Speaker 1: that's pretty much when it comes to the town. I mean, 925 00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:56,280 Speaker 1: I know, I know some of the repers out of Houston. 926 00:51:56,480 --> 00:52:00,759 Speaker 1: I grew up listening to some of them, uh U 927 00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:03,520 Speaker 1: g K and Paul Wall and Chamellionaire and all of them. 928 00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:05,360 Speaker 1: I grew up listening to them. But other than that, 929 00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:07,400 Speaker 1: that's about all I know about Houston. Oh, you just 930 00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:09,640 Speaker 1: made a lot of new friends here, trust me. What 931 00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:13,720 Speaker 1: about barbecue in Texas versus where you grew up in Tennessee. 932 00:52:13,760 --> 00:52:15,920 Speaker 1: I imagine that was a big debate in Dallas and 933 00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:19,759 Speaker 1: it's going to carry through here. Yeah, you know, we 934 00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:23,120 Speaker 1: we like guards a long st offee in Tennessee. You know, 935 00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 1: missus is long for their barbecue. I love them full forth. 936 00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:30,719 Speaker 1: So somebody I had to direct me to some of 937 00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:34,760 Speaker 1: the best spots to get some barbecues for sure. All right, Randall. 938 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:36,600 Speaker 1: And in the community, I know you've done a lot 939 00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:40,000 Speaker 1: in the community over your career with Green Bay, with Dallas. 940 00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:42,759 Speaker 1: What about getting involved here when we get back to 941 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,080 Speaker 1: it because the Texans are all about doing stuff out 942 00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:48,040 Speaker 1: and about the community definitely, Uh, you know, that's that's 943 00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:50,520 Speaker 1: one thing that I want to do is smart myself 944 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:52,600 Speaker 1: in the community and do everything that I can to 945 00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:56,279 Speaker 1: help out the area and and be a voice, uh, 946 00:52:56,520 --> 00:52:59,000 Speaker 1: you know, for for so many people. You know where 947 00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:02,640 Speaker 1: I some from, you know, close to the poverty line, 948 00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:07,160 Speaker 1: and you know, I've always you know, tried to reach 949 00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:09,320 Speaker 1: out and extend my hand and help anybody that I 950 00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:12,399 Speaker 1: can to to get out of this situation they're growing 951 00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:15,560 Speaker 1: up in. And you know, I think doing that through 952 00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:18,960 Speaker 1: education is what's key to me because I've seen what 953 00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:21,640 Speaker 1: education can do for someone's life in the way that 954 00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:23,480 Speaker 1: they can change, and you know, I want to do 955 00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:25,719 Speaker 1: everything I can to give back and help out in 956 00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:28,719 Speaker 1: the community. One of my favorite things every season is 957 00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:32,920 Speaker 1: to see Texans that are new to the organization what 958 00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:35,200 Speaker 1: they look like, especially guys that have been around the 959 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:38,759 Speaker 1: league for a while. Like seeing Laramie last year in 960 00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:42,040 Speaker 1: a Texas jersey was like whoa, Kenny still the same thing, 961 00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:44,839 Speaker 1: like WHOA. I don't know why Randall Cobb is going 962 00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:46,720 Speaker 1: to be odd to see him in a Texas jersey 963 00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:50,560 Speaker 1: can't wait, cannot wait to see it happen, and hopefully 964 00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:54,759 Speaker 1: it'll happen here before too long.
