Speaker 2: Welcome into a TGIFF edition of Texans All Access and

00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:09,480
Speaker 1: Welcome in, Thank you for being here.

5
00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:12,800
Speaker 2: I'm your host, John Harris, football analyst, sideline reporter for

00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:16,720
Speaker 2: your Houston Texans and Boyd, we have a lot to

00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,400
Speaker 2: do tonight. We're gonna talk to the head ball coach. We're

8
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,120
Speaker 2: gonna talk to the offensive line coach. We're gonna talk

9
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 2: to a starting linebacker. We're gonna have our picks and predictions.

10
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 2: We're gonna talk to the man calling TV play by

11
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,159
Speaker 2: play for TV. We're gonna have all of that on

12
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,200
Speaker 2: the show. And we're also gonna live the ult eleven

13
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 2: offensive plays of the year for the Texans to this point.

14
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:42,280
Speaker 1: I'll explain that a little bit later.

15
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 2: But I do a show every Tuesday called Texans Matchup,

16
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 2: and these are the last two as we know last

17
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,919
Speaker 2: who guaranteed shows, so I want to make sure I

18
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 2: celebrated the offensive defensive plays of the year. And I

19
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 2: also have a special section on Tuesday Night for the

20
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 2: defensive plays and special teams. But today it's offense, so

21
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 2: we'll have that a little bit later in the show.

22
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 2: It's going to be a blast. Mark and Igor link

23
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 2: up and talk about this one a little bit as well.

24
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 2: But we've got to kick it off with the head

25
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 2: coach of your Houston Texans, Demico Ryans. What a big

26
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 2: one this is on Sunday. They're all big it's just

27
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 2: which one is next? Well, this one is next, and

28
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 2: Demiko caught up with Mark to talk about it.

29
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 3: All.

30
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 4: Right, Coach, here we go with Texans Titans Part two.

31
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 4: And I know you've looked at the first game, but

32
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,399
Speaker 4: so many, or at least enough of the names have

33
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 4: changed in different aspects coming to play. What do you

34
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 4: make of moving the ball against this Titans defense? It

35
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 4: wasn't easy last time, but now you have CJ.

36
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 1: Beck.

37
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:40,040
Speaker 4: How's that different for you?

38
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, not much different. I think we ran the ball

39
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 5: well in that game. We have to run the ball

40
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 5: will again. I think that's where it'll all start.

41
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 6: Right.

42
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 5: Offensive line has done a great job over the past

43
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 5: couple of weeks of creating displacement up front. Now motor BP,

44
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 5: we just have to get them going and we can

45
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 5: run the ball. Think it helps our offense tremendously.

46
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 4: How closely do you watch the other teams injury reports?

47
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 4: Certain guys in certain guys at how that might affect matchups?

48
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 5: Right, We get those reports, I get updates like every

49
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 5: day on who practice, who did in practice, and their

50
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 5: game status. So you try to look at those things,

51
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 5: but it's so unpredictable. You don't know status has changed

52
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 5: each and every day. We just, you know, kind of

53
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 5: bank on with our scouts and what they tell us. Hey,

54
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 5: we predict that this guy is going to play, and

55
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 5: we play accordingly.

56
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 4: Not a silver lining, but maybe a hidden benefit of

57
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 4: having so many injuries where you have different players stepping up,

58
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 4: How does that help you in practice? Having so many

59
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 4: guys who have gotten actual game reps, and a lot.

60
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 7: Of our guys have a lot of experience.

61
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,679
Speaker 5: All of our guys have played in games, play meaningful

62
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 5: time in games, so guys understand what it takes. They

63
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 5: understand what it takes to win games, understand what it

64
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:46,920
Speaker 5: takes to perform.

65
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 7: Well at their position.

66
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,119
Speaker 5: So all of that experience, right, we needed to show

67
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 5: up at this moment in a really big game for us.

68
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,920
Speaker 7: We needed to show up at every level.

69
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 4: We know what you did with Derrick Henry last time,

70
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 4: and he came last week, had a much better game

71
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,080
Speaker 4: against the Seattle Seahawks. So here we go again with

72
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 4: Derek Henry Part two. What about what your defense faces?

73
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 5: Right, we can throw out the first game and what

74
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 5: happened with Derek, and we know that they're gonna lean heavy, right,

75
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 5: especially based on the results of what happened the first time.

76
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 5: You think, got to know that they're gonna come in.

77
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 5: They're gonna try to establish the run even more so, right,

78
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 5: and probably try to force feed Derek as much as possible.

79
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 5: So again, defensive we have to do a great job

80
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 5: of stopping to run. Our defensive line. They're the key,

81
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 5: right if they play well up front, if they knock back,

82
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 5: reset the line of scrimmage and make the running back

83
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 5: have to check his feet. Now we have a chance

84
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 5: to play really good in the run again.

85
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 4: And you faced Will Levis last time, but you have

86
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 4: that rookie unpredictability factor going for him, right.

87
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, for sure, you know Levis is going in. They're

88
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 5: trying to get him more reps, right, valuable reps coming

89
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 5: into it, and they'll try to change some things up

90
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 5: schematically right to help him out.

91
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 7: But I think I see them getting him on the edge.

92
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 5: More with more boot boot legs all right, more play

93
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,119
Speaker 5: action passing games. So we just have to create as

94
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 5: much pressure right as we can. We got a lot

95
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 5: of good pressure last time versus them. We know they're

96
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 5: going to be prepared for our rust, so we just

97
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 5: have to find ways, different ways, different people right to

98
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 5: get after them.

99
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: Up front.

100
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 4: Three of your safeties weren't here when the season began,

101
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 4: but at least they've played in the league before and

102
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 4: they've played for you a little bit. Now you have

103
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 4: Kareem into the mix. How does all that work out

104
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 4: of the back yend?

105
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, a lot of moving parts, unfortunately in the back end.

106
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 5: But it also helps when you got guys who have

107
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,919
Speaker 5: experienced guys you know, they played a lot of football,

108
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,559
Speaker 5: And that's the thing I always lean on at this time.

109
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,359
Speaker 5: Guys who have that experience. They've seen it all before, Right,

110
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 5: It's just a matter of getting the communication down and

111
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 5: making sure everybody is on the same page. But these

112
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,599
Speaker 5: guys seen a lot of ball, played a lot of

113
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 5: ball and made a ton of plays in their careers,

114
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 5: and that's what we're expecting them to do on Sunday.

115
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: All right.

116
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 4: One more every week it seems like the magnitude increases

117
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 4: and this week. It's certainly at an all time high

118
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 4: relative to the rest of the season, and the guy's

119
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 4: got to feel that, right, you sense that in practice

120
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 4: getting ready for this one.

121
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, our guys been dialed in. They understand how big

122
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,479
Speaker 5: this game is for us. They understand the position this

123
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,040
Speaker 5: game put us in, and we have to get this

124
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 5: one as a competitor. How would you want it?

125
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 4: Right?

126
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 5: You have to win this game to have your chance

127
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 5: to get in. Our guys understand and they're ready.

128
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 7: For the talents.

129
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 4: Coach, Thanks a lot, good luck.

130
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 7: Thanks Mark, No, thank you to Miko.

131
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 2: Appreciate you being here on the show as always. Now

132
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 2: we're also joined in this opening segment my offensive line

133
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,279
Speaker 2: coach Chris Strausser. We had a great time talking with coach.

134
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 2: Has been so much changing, so much to talk about,

135
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 2: and we did that with coach earlier today here in.

136
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 4: The Hunday Texans Radio studio with us IS Texans offensive

137
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 4: line coach Chris Strasser. Coach, great to see how you doing.

138
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 8: I'm doing well. Thank you. Great to be here.

139
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 4: Another big assignment this week, taking on the Tennessee Titans.

140
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 4: Let's just start here though, with all the different combinations

141
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 4: you've had to work with this year. What's that like

142
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 4: to try to get everybody playing as one? We always

143
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 4: talk about five fingers in the glove with the offensive line,

144
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 4: You've out a lot of fingers move around in that glove.

145
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 9: What's that like to coach? Yeah, definitely, there's some challenges

146
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,280
Speaker 9: that go along with that. I think, you know, at

147
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 9: this point in the season, we've had so much of

148
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 9: that that everybody really understands the next man up mentality

149
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 9: and is.

150
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:14,799
Speaker 8: Ready to roll.

151
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 9: And most of the guys that are getting plugged back

152
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 9: in there are guys that have had reps at some

153
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 9: point this season, So you know, there's some challenges that

154
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,840
Speaker 9: go along with it. But it really has been kind of,

155
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:27,279
Speaker 9: you know, standard operating procedure this year.

156
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:27,679
Speaker 1: Coach.

157
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 2: The nature of your guys job is to be as

158
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 2: physical as possible. But when you get to week seventeen,

159
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 2: week eighteen where we are now, their bodies are so

160
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 2: beat up. How do you kind of manage that aspect

161
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:40,719
Speaker 2: of it? Like, we know we're going to have this guy,

162
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 2: but man, we know he's beat up. How do you

163
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:43,840
Speaker 2: kind of handle those things?

164
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: At the end of the year.

165
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 9: I've been a tremendous amount of respect for just what

166
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 9: our guys do every week and how they find a

167
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 9: way to get themselves prepared for game time. And so

168
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,160
Speaker 9: part of that is us being smart and manage them

169
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 9: and know what reps they need to get with shoulder

170
00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,159
Speaker 9: pads on or whatever the case may be. And you know,

171
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 9: you're hoping that at this point in the year you

172
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 9: have enough banked reps with stuff that you know even

173
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 9: if you just do it full speed without pads on,

174
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 9: you can get something out of it right there. But

175
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 9: it is a good challenge and to me, that's you know,

176
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 9: one of the ways at this time of the year

177
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 9: you can separate yourself is still play physical.

178
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 4: Offensive line coach Chris Strasser with US on Texans Radio.

179
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 4: Let's get to the center position, because this has been

180
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 4: an odyssey right when you get from training camp and

181
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 4: we see Scotty Quasiberry out there and that feels like

182
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 4: a long time ago when Scotty was out there with

183
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 4: the ones at camp and I know things might have

184
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 4: changed after that, but he got hurt. And here we

185
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 4: are with Michael Dieter, who has some experience. What about

186
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 4: the flow of that position, because obviously you've been productive

187
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 4: as an offense with a lot of different parts there

188
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 4: at center.

189
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 9: I say the biggest thing is, you know, all four

190
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 9: of those guys that have played center, Juice Scruggs included,

191
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 9: although for him it was just preseason, you know, have

192
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 9: really done a nice job leading the unit, which is

193
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 9: part of the assignment for the center, as you know

194
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 9: probably everybody knows. And so not only have they each

195
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 9: you know, done their part of playing good football, but

196
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 9: they've each taken charge and been ready to coach.

197
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 2: You mentioned Juice, he's a rookie getting thrown into the

198
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 2: fire his first game Jaguars game. I think it was

199
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 2: where he's got to jump in. He's jumping in a guard,

200
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 2: whereas the Pitt state he played at center, and I

201
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 2: know center guard a lot of times. There can be

202
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 2: guys that can play both of them. There's something that

203
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 2: can play just one or the other. But what are

204
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 2: your thoughts on how Juice has progressed through this basically

205
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:23,119
Speaker 2: last half of the season.

206
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think it's been a great learning experience for him.

207
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 9: There's definitely been rookie moments out there that have shown

208
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 9: up on tape. But the nice thing about Jews is

209
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 9: his approach to the game and how he shows up

210
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 9: on game day ready to play with physicality and play

211
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 9: fast and take advantage of his athleticism. And so there's

212
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 9: been plenty of mistakes, but overall he's played really well.

213
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,199
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, George fan recovering from an injury, coach,

214
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 4: but what a fine he's been really because he wasn't

215
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 4: with you in the offseason, he got with you in

216
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 4: training camp and then ends up playing so many snaps

217
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 4: at right tackle. What has he provided for you at

218
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 4: that spot?

219
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,440
Speaker 9: Yeah, George has been tremendous, you know, just his experience

220
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 9: that he's had up to this point in his career,

221
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,599
Speaker 9: his competitiveness, you know, his his length, his ability, so

222
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 9: many things he brings to the table. And he's done

223
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 9: a tremendous job. And he's a guy that body is really,

224
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 9: you know, fairly banged up and has been since he's

225
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 9: been here, and really works tremendously hard every week to

226
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 9: get himself ready to go on Sundays.

227
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 2: Coach got the Titans again two weeks after the fact.

228
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 2: So in preparation for the Titans, how much do you

229
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,440
Speaker 2: rely on what you banked before the Week fifteen game

230
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 2: as you go in two week seventeen game. You didn't

231
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 2: see Simmons, you won't see Simmons. You may be prepared

232
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 2: for Tart, well, now he's a Texan. How does the

233
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,079
Speaker 2: preparation carry over much two weeks after playing the Titans?

234
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,559
Speaker 8: I think definitely there is carryover in the preparation.

235
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 9: And I think for the guys, you don't feel like

236
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 9: you're totally starting at ground zero in terms of the

237
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 9: Wednesday prep which you're starting to show guys.

238
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 8: But we, you know, we approach it like it's.

239
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 9: A brand new week, and like we haven't played them before,

240
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 9: and we assume we haven't played them before, and you know,

241
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 9: they got a few different pieces in there. Although it's

242
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,199
Speaker 9: two weeks later, we got a few different pieces in there,

243
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 9: and so sure, really kind of from scratch.

244
00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 4: What about the physical versus the mental? I know it's

245
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:03,440
Speaker 4: a when you're making the running game work, But how

246
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 4: important or can you just describe the importance of you know,

247
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 4: being in the right place at the right time, getting

248
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 4: the right guy and it's not just bulldozing people over

249
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 4: which a lot of the layman fans think. It's a

250
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 4: whole lot more than that.

251
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:16,680
Speaker 8: Well, I wish it was that simple.

252
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 9: I think we'd be a little bit further ahead, if

253
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 9: that's all there was to it. But you know, it's

254
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 9: it's a tough scheme and there's a lot of stuff

255
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 9: for us to really kind of work our way through,

256
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 9: and sometimes learning on game reps is where we're at

257
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 9: on a few things. And so it's been a very

258
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 9: successful scheme in the NFL. I think there's been a

259
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 9: lot of teams that their first season in and have

260
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 9: I really had to work through some of the lumps

261
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 9: of learning it. And so what I do think is

262
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 9: probably the hardest part about the scheme is the mental

263
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 9: coach and some.

264
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,559
Speaker 2: Of the wins you've had this year, you've had outstanding

265
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,839
Speaker 2: rushing performances, your motor had a couple of one a

266
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:49,199
Speaker 2: Cincinnati one Tennessee.

267
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 1: But when you've been able to run the ball.

268
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 2: Effectively, what's been the biggest key for that amongst your

269
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 2: guys in getting you know, past one hundred yards and

270
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,199
Speaker 2: just having a really good running performance, what's been the

271
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 2: key in those particular ball games.

272
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 9: I think the biggest thing for us is just to

273
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 9: stay stay on rhythm, and so when we get ourselves

274
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,319
Speaker 9: in situations where it's a penalty and now we're back

275
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 9: and it's second and twenty really hard to run the ball.

276
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 9: You know, for us, if we can get thirty carries

277
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 9: a game, we know it's going to be a good

278
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 9: game for us on offense.

279
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 8: And so you know, to do things to get in.

280
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 9: Our own way and keep us out of those situations

281
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 9: makes it a big challenge.

282
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, the guys seem very close, but the offensive line

283
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 4: should be close, right. So what's it like in the

284
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 4: room with the players? I know there's a lot of

285
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 4: work being done here, but there's also some joking around camaraderie.

286
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 4: What is that like for you as a coach to

287
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 4: see how they interact with each other.

288
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 8: It's been great.

289
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 9: You know, It's been a different unit than others that

290
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 9: I've coached, But you know, a lot of really good

291
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 9: guys in that room. What's nice is we have six

292
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 9: rookies and so they take advantage of giving the rookies

293
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 9: a hard time, and so that's plenty of entertainment on

294
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 9: a daily basis, you know, to have those guys get

295
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 9: having a little fun.

296
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 8: But it's a great group of guys.

297
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 9: You know, we all care so much, you know, works

298
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,200
Speaker 9: so hard at this thing. If we don't find ways

299
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 9: to have a little fun, it can be miserable.

300
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,839
Speaker 2: Coach Kopopovich has been part of your line group put

301
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 2: as he meant to the group as well, just being

302
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:04,079
Speaker 2: kind of your right hand man with the offensive line.

303
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 8: Yeah, tremendous.

304
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 9: He's he's a guy that is very, very capable of

305
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 9: being an elite offensive line coach in the NFL. Was

306
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 9: one at one point, and I'm sure we'll get back

307
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,959
Speaker 9: to that very soon. He's been a tremendous value for us. Coach,

308
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 9: thanks a lot for joining us, Best of luck, Thank you.

309
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: We appreciate the coaches jumping on.

310
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:24,680
Speaker 2: We've had coordinators, we've had assistant coaches, position coaches, we've

311
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 2: had a little bit of everything. We really appreciate them

312
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 2: stepping in studio and having a good time with us.

313
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 1: And thank you very much. All Right, it's time to.

314
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 2: Get a little bit of the players in sight as well.

315
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 2: So head coach assistant coach starting linebacker Christian Harris Drew

316
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,000
Speaker 2: Doherty caught up with him to talk ball as Alabama

317
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,559
Speaker 2: Crimson Titan is playing on Monday. But this Crimson Tighter

318
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 2: has got to be ready to go on Sunday against

319
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 2: the Tennessee Titans. As he was last time against Tennessee Titans,

320
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 2: man he and Dereck Henry. They locked horns a few times,

321
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 2: and Christian Harris reminded him early in that game, I'm

322
00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 2: gonna be here all day, and he was. They held

323
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 2: Henry to nine yards. I'm sure that I will come

324
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 2: up right here with Drew Doherty and Christian Harris.

325
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:08,079
Speaker 3: Linebacker Christian Harris joins US now Christian Titans on deck.

326
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 3: Texans got two big ones here with Tennessee and then

327
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 3: at Indianapolis. This run defense been excellent this season. How

328
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 3: come why has it been so good?

329
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 10: I think the attention of detail the coach and obviously

330
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,679
Speaker 10: you know, has a major impact on it. Coach Demico,

331
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 10: Coach Burke as well as a position coaches, coach Kiff

332
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 10: and everybody just like, you know, focusing on attention of detail,

333
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,440
Speaker 10: you know, to walk through it is everything that we're doing.

334
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 10: Being like deliberate with it translates really well to the

335
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 10: game and you know, we're able to know, you know,

336
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,560
Speaker 10: what to expect, what we're getting guys, you know, trying

337
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 10: to be consistent on doing their fits each and every play. So,

338
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 10: I mean, I think that's it's been really helpful this year.

339
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 3: You know, everybody in the in the NFL has an

340
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 3: edge to them, doesn't matter the position edges are different.

341
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:52,319
Speaker 3: You certainly have an edge to you. How important is

342
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 3: that to have that edge as a linebacker in the NFL?

343
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 10: I mean I think it's major, especially you know, being

344
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 10: my size, Like typically going to gets olim and they're

345
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 10: going to be six ' five, three fifty, you know,

346
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,079
Speaker 10: three thirty, So I mean, here's gonna be some big guys.

347
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 10: You kind of gotta you know how that line hearted

348
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 10: mentality and you know, just a tag go hunt, you know.

349
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 6: I mean it helps me a lot for sure.

350
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 3: How do you think your experience of now being in

351
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 3: your deep in your second year, how do you think

352
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 3: that's maybe sharpened that edge? Perhaps?

353
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 10: I guess you could say I can focus more on

354
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 10: controlled aggression understanding. Again, like you know, I have a

355
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 10: lot of capabilities that God blessed me with, you know,

356
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 10: speed and just you know natural like you know, long

357
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 10: limbs and stuff like that. So utilizing my hands and

358
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 10: finding different ways to implement that into my game and

359
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 10: not always just just trying to run around like you know,

360
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 10: you have to thinking, like I said, be delivered and

361
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 10: be detailed so I'm just understanding how to work within that.

362
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 3: Yet two sundays ago, you guys shut down the run

363
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 3: game of the Tennessee Titans. I think he gave up

364
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 3: thirty nine yards in total. Derrick Henry, he almost had

365
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 3: twice as many carries as he did yards, only had

366
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 3: nine on the ground. You're one of the tips of

367
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 3: that spear. How do you go about not necessarily replicating that,

368
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 3: but trying to get us close to replicating that as

369
00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 3: as you could.

370
00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 10: I mean, I think it's the same focus every week.

371
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 10: I mean, you know, you evaluate the film and you

372
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 10: try and go in there with a plan of you know,

373
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 10: dominating the run game and you know, making you know,

374
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 10: a team one dimensional.

375
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 6: It's a great running back that they have and Derrick

376
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 6: Henry and.

377
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 10: He's had a lot of success, And like I said,

378
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 10: I mean just for us, you know, the main thing

379
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 10: is is doing our job that we go out there,

380
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 10: we see a number running hit.

381
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 6: So I mean that's just what it is.

382
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 3: What's the challenge that their quarterback Will Levis presents them.

383
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 6: He's a fiery guy.

384
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean you see like the runs that he makes,

385
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 10: you know, he's able to extend plays, let alone sitting

386
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 10: in the pocket as well, you know, make great throws

387
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 10: and you know he does well for the offense. And

388
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 10: I think, you know a lot of people over there

389
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:32,360
Speaker 10: believe in him, have confidence in them, and that does

390
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 10: a lot, you know, for them as well.

391
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 6: So something for sure we're gonna have to prepare for.

392
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 3: What do you think about as a linebacker when you

393
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 3: see a quarterback willing to run the way he runs?

394
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 10: I like to hit, So it's exciting for sure. But

395
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 10: it's kind of cool to see a guy you know,

396
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 10: have confidence and I guess you know, at this level,

397
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:48,400
Speaker 10: be willing to sit here and take those shots for

398
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 10: his team.

399
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 3: How much is playing in front of the energy stadium

400
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 3: crowd one last time in the regular season get you excited,

401
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 3: gets you guys as a defense excited. How pumped up

402
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 3: are you guys to do that?

403
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 10: I mean we're fired up, like we're hoping it's going

404
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 10: to be packed out, and you know, always having a

405
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 10: home field advantage, I mean it helps every single game,

406
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 10: every chance you get, you know, first second down, especially

407
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 10: third down when it gets super loud, you know, you're

408
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 10: pumping up the crowd and you get that little tingle

409
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 10: fill in the uts you know what I'm saying.

410
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 6: This is pretty cool man.

411
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 3: And one last thing, it looks like CJ. Stroud is

412
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 3: gonna go at quarterback. What's that do for you guys?

413
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 3: As a defense?

414
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 6: I gotta say, it's the same objective for us every week.

415
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 10: But we're for sure one hundred percent excited to see

416
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:22,960

Speaker 6: Boys.

Speaker 10: We're standing behind them that we have all the faith

Speaker 10: in the world in them, and let's just gonna go

442
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: Of different things.

443
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 2: So we'll talk about the keys of the game against

444
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 2: the Tennessee Titans, but a lot of things that are

445
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:26,399
Speaker 2: going on throughout the league as well.

00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:28,920
Speaker 1: So Mark, I'm just gonna throw this right at you

447

Speaker 1: right away.

448
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,440
Speaker 2: Beat the Titans nineteen sixteen in overtime up in Tennessee.

449
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 2: We talked about the various keys, are any of them

450
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 2: different from week one matchup? We talked about taking away

451
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 2: the runway of Derrick Henry. We talked about getting pressure

452
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 2: early on Will Levis and then offensively take in profit,

453
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 2: take what they give you, but make sure you're scoring

454
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 2: touchdowns at certain points with case keenum and then protection

455
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 2: and see if you get a run game. Well, you

456
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 2: got a lot of those things to happen to get

457
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 2: the win. Against the Titans. Well, different has to happen

458
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,880
Speaker 2: on Sunday. It's gonna there are gonna be a lot

459
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 2: of personnel changes. But what in your mind has to

460
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 2: change amongst the keys to go get a winning at Tennessee?

461
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 4: Can I answer the question with a question?

462
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 11: O can tell me?

463
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 4: First?

464
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 7: Okay?

465
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,880
Speaker 4: Are they gonna be able to run the football? Similarly,

466
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,919
Speaker 4: I'm not saying one twenty plus out of Motor, but

467
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:23,719
Speaker 4: I'm saying around the century mark for Motor here success

468
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 4: on the ground generally speaking? Are they gonna be able

469
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 4: to do that on Sunday the Texans?

470
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:30,919
Speaker 1: You mean? Yes? I think so?

471
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,640
Speaker 4: Okay, if they could do that, I feel really good

472
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 4: about this game, even if Henry gets close to one

473
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,160
Speaker 4: hundred himself, I really feel good about it.

474
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 11: Because you have CJ. Stroudback.

475
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 4: Yes, if you're running with Motor, that's a little bootleg

476
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 4: here and a little play action there, and you don't

477
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 4: have CJ having to play drop back.

478
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh.

479
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 4: He's under pressure, right and he can handle that. But

480
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 4: I think I speak for everybody when I say we

481
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 4: don't want to see him have to handle so much

482
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:58,200
Speaker 4: in this game.

483
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, and you got to keep him obviously protected,

484
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,120
Speaker 2: and how you protect them I think ends up being

485
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 2: a key in this game. If you can protect those

486
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:11,120
Speaker 2: if you could protect with five against those four mainly Autry,

487
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 2: Key and Landry, if you can protect those three plus

488
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:20,359
Speaker 2: one when they're bringing four with your five, allowing Dolton

489
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 2: Schultz to get onto routes, allowing your receivers to work

490
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,159
Speaker 2: all the routes, align motor to get out in routes.

491
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:26,639
Speaker 1: I don't know that there is a way that they

492
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 1: stop you.

493
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 4: Well, look at it this way. Your leading receiver is

494
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 4: Nico Collins. As great as Tank Dell has been for

495
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 4: this football team, Nico is the leading receiver, and you

496
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 4: have him back and CJ back. Neither guy played in

497
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,920
Speaker 4: the first matchup. Right We were on the field altogether,

498
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,880
Speaker 4: You me, Dre. We were watching Nico warm up look

499
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 4: pretty good. But the version of good versus NFL game

500
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 4: good good to go meaning coming back from an injury

501
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,199
Speaker 4: different things. I get it played the next week, but

502
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 4: he didn't have CJ out there, and you were facing

503
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:02,640
Speaker 4: a ferocious Cleveland defense and they are really coming into

504
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:06,399
Speaker 4: their whole other subject right now. I like having CJ

505
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,400
Speaker 4: and Nico back, and that is an understatement. We all

506
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,159
Speaker 4: feel good about that, and I think that makes a

507
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 4: huge difference in this matchup.

508
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 1: Well, here's the other thing I thought about.

509
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 2: In fact, I was just on by buddies Jeff Ketcham

510
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 2: and Chad Hastings on their show House Divided on Orange

511
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 2: Bloods and we're talking a lot about obviously Texas and Washington,

512
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:28,640
Speaker 2: and talking about the Michigan Alabama game, obviously what Bill

513
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 2: Brian had to say about Jaylen mill Road, et cetera.

514
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 2: And we got to talking about Dalton Schultz because Jeff

515
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:39,879
Speaker 2: has Dalton Schultz on his fantasy team, and so he said,

516
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 2: it will give me some insider knowledge.

517
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,119
Speaker 1: You think Dalton's gonna have a good game, And of

518
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 1: course I said yes.

519
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 2: But I think because having CJ back with Dalton against

520
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 2: the Tennessee Titans secondary that's decimated right now. I mean decimated.

521
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,199
Speaker 2: Look you look around at Texans and you go, well,

522
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,439
Speaker 2: that guy's hurt. That guy's hurt, that guy's hurt. When

523
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 2: you at Titans, you're like that guy, that guy, that guy,

524
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:03,880
Speaker 2: that guy, that.

525
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:04,440
Speaker 1: Guy, that guy.

526
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,880
Speaker 4: Are all on I are or traded or traded.

527
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 2: This guy, this guy, this guy, this guy, this guy,

528
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 2: this guy, this guy this guy.

529
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 4: This guy they're hurt or on the Texans or on

530
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 4: the text.

531
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 2: There's a pretty impressive numbers at that point, so as

532
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 2: it pertains the injuries, and impressive always not not always

533
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,919
Speaker 2: a good thing. It's amazing to think about what the roster,

534
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:29,119
Speaker 2: the starting roster will be from the Titans, not only two.

535
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:30,120
Speaker 1: Weeks ago, but last year.

536
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 2: There's only one defensive starter that started last year against

537
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:38,680
Speaker 2: US in Houston that will start against US more than

538
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 2: likely on Sunday.

539
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:40,400
Speaker 1: That's Roger McCreary.

540
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 11: One.

541
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 4: That's it.

542
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 1: One.

543
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 2: How's that draft choice working out? It's okay, it's okay.

544
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,480
Speaker 2: He didn't come down with that ball ironically against dult Schultz.

545
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 2: And so if you're five protect against their four or

546
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,880
Speaker 2: there five, your five protects against their five, you can

547
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 2: get Dalton Alton the routes. I think Dalton eats up

548
00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,159
Speaker 2: there safe these I think CJ finds him. I think

549
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 2: Dalton could end up having a really a real, really

550
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 2: solid ball game and hopefully down in the red zone.

551
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 2: He's a guy that CJ will look up and get

552
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,639
Speaker 2: some touchdowns to do some things. But it's been a

553
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 2: while since we've seen certain groups of players together because

554
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 2: Dalton got hurt. Trying to remember what game he got hurt,

555
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 2: because then he missed two games. He missed the Jets

556
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,119
Speaker 2: and Broncos. But he was back for the.

557
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 4: Titans, Yes, and he was big in the Titan in.

558
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 2: The Titans game. He was absolutely massive in that Titans game.

559
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 2: But CJ didn't have him for the game against the Jets.

560
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 2: So you're getting some of the band back together now.

561
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:41,679
Speaker 2: Obviously you're not going to have Tank. Allent to me,

562
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 2: Mark I said it the other day. We were talking

563
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 2: about during the game and we were talking about the

564
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 2: offense against the Browns, and I said, I still feel

565
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:55,640
Speaker 2: like the offense hasn't quite figured out what they want

566
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 2: to do without Tank Dell and how they replace some

567
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 2: of those explosives and what they.

568
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 1: Need to do.

569
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:03,879
Speaker 2: And one of the biggest things they're gonna have to

570
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:08,919
Speaker 2: rely on is CJ's accuracy and CJ's confidence that he

571
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,160
Speaker 2: doesn't need ten yards of space to throw a guy

572
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 2: the ball, that he'll stick a ball in between two

573
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,439
Speaker 2: defenders five yards apart and hit his guy circled up

574
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 2: in zone. Other quarterbacks and the Texas weren't doing that

575
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:23,119
Speaker 2: or haven't done that, so CJ just gives everybody an opportunity.

576
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 2: I think the other guy that benefits from CJ being

577
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 2: back is Robert Woods. Because Roberts I've watched him at

578
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 2: times during games where he's running his routes and he

579
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 2: just gets the absolutely you know what beat out of

580
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 2: him because he's running all those interior routes. He's getting

581
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 2: bought by a linebacker, you'll shoved by a safety, and

582
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 2: then he's circling up an open spot and quarterbacks are

583
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:49,360
Speaker 2: aren't looking at him because he's not college open, he's

584
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 2: NFL open.

585
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:51,160
Speaker 1: He's a college open.

586
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,679
Speaker 4: Well's okay with Nflcj's okay.

587
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,680
Speaker 1: With NFL open. And that's a big key.

588
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 2: So if you get you get a solid game of

589
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 2: Adult and Schultz, you get more production out of Robert Woods.

590
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 2: For what we just talked about, I think you got

591
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 2: an opportunity to put some numbers up against the Titans defense.

592
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 4: All right. Now, on defense, you're facing Will Levis again.

593
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 4: He sat out last week and knocked him out of

594
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,120
Speaker 4: the game late yep against the Titans two weeks ago.

595
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 4: Now he's back. And by the way, just in a

596
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 4: grand scheme of thing, way, what about the time elapse

597
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,399
Speaker 4: between these matchups, it feels like more than two weeks.

598
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 4: It feels like it's been a month, and it hasn't.

599
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 4: It's just been a couple of weeks. As we are speaking.

600
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 4: It's less than two weeks ago that you played Tennessee.

601
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:40,360
Speaker 4: But NFL time it just has something different about it. Anyway,

602
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,439
Speaker 4: there you were two weeks ago facing Derrick Henry holding

603
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 4: him to a record low performance, and wasn't that marvelous.

604
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 4: I don't think that's gonna happen again. I think Henry's

605
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 4: gonna get some yards. I think he's gonna get eighty

606
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 4: to one hundred yards. I think I said on Texans

607
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 4: Extra Points seventy to one hundred. I'll stick with that prediction.

608
00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,880
Speaker 4: But I'm okay with that, Johnny. There was a time

609
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 4: or we would have put up a banner to hold

610
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 4: Dereck Henry to one hundred. Last year in a victory

611
00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 4: Christmas Eve, he had over one twenty, and we felt

612
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 4: really good about it because, as you always point out,

613
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 4: forty plus on one run and the rest of the

614
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,199
Speaker 4: time you really kept them in check. They're gonna be

615
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,120
Speaker 4: all over it. They're good against the run. We all

616
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,200
Speaker 4: know they struggle against the pass. What are they twenty

617
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,160
Speaker 4: eighth or something? Twenty six twenty eighth against the pass?

618
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:21,400
Speaker 1: Right?

619
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 4: Now, have this ready when I do the actual game broadcast, folks.

620
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,639
Speaker 4: But it's not good. It's not a good number. And

621
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:29,679
Speaker 4: we know about the explosive plays and everything, but it

622
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 4: all starts with Derek Henry. If you can slow him

623
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 4: down again, slow him down, let Will lev not let

624
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 4: but have Will Levis try to beat you. Yes, he's

625
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 4: gonna make some plays. He'll make some running plays, he'll

626
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 4: make a few throws. He's got the Andre Hopkins, but

627
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 4: by and large you will get to him.

628
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 11: Now.

629
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 4: I know that the injury situation on the D line

630
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,480
Speaker 4: is not good, but hopefully some help is on the way.

631
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 4: Maybe some guys can play. The questionable list is long,

632
00:25:56,680 --> 00:26:00,360
Speaker 4: but I think they have enough guys to throw row

633
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 4: at Derrick Henry to at least slow him down and

634
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 4: maybe get a pick or two in the secondary off

635
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,360
Speaker 4: the rookie quarterback. I'd be a lot more worried if

636
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,080
Speaker 4: this was Ryan Tannehill and they've beaten Ryan Tannehill, but

637
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 4: I'd be a lot more concerned about that. I'm glad

638
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 4: it's Levis. We'll see how it goes.

639
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 1: I'm with you. I think it's gonna be Levis.

640
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 2: I'll be glad for that, because Ryan Tannehill has beaten

641
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:21,879
Speaker 2: the Texans.

642
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 1: Twenty two, twenty one, twenty nineteen. So here is your

643
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 1: trivia question of the day.

644
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 4: You ready, I'm ready, ready, ready.

645
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 2: Who is the last Titans quarterback to beat the Texans

646
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 2: at NRG Stadium not named Ryan Tannehill.

647
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:43,640
Speaker 4: At NRG Stadium.

648
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:44,719
Speaker 1: You gotta go.

649
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 4: Mariota did not get him here? I did not, So

650
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 4: I'm going Mettenberger did not beat them here?

651
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 1: Correct.

652
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 4: Jake Locker did not. I don't think. Oh my gosh,

653
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:59,399
Speaker 4: wait a minute, we're going way back. Vince.

654
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 11: No, it's not Vince.

655
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 4: It's Kerry Collins.

656
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 1: Wait.

657
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 4: Who was between Kerry Collins.

658
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,159
Speaker 1: I'll give you one hint. The diaper.

659
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 4: Oh, Matt Hasselbeck.

660
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 1: Matt Hasselbeck.

661
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:14,439
Speaker 2: Yes, January first, twenty twelve, so the end of the

662
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 2: twenty eleven season.

663
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:17,680
Speaker 4: So that was the game where you.

664
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:18,159
Speaker 11: Didn't need it.

665
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:21,320
Speaker 4: Now you were starting, you started Yates, but you played

666
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,879
Speaker 4: Jake the loan for the bulk of the game. That's right.

667
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 4: Hasslebeck was the starter for the Titans that day. Mike

668
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 4: Munchak was the head coach.

669
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, hassleback for twenty two to thirty five, two touchdowns,

670
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:33,240
Speaker 2: one hundred nine rating.

671
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 1: It was pretty good.

672
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,640
Speaker 4: That's the last quarterback not named Ryan Tannehill to beat

673
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 4: as a Titan, the Houston Texas.

674
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 2: How about NRG at NRG the end of the twenty

675
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 2: eleven season.

676
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 1: I did my buy the numbers. They're pretty interesting by

677
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:45,399
Speaker 1: the numbers.

678
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,080
Speaker 4: Okay, how about Rusty Smith the year before that did

679
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,159
Speaker 4: not win? Vince Young the year before that? Did Kerry

680
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 4: Collins the year before that thirteen and three, but he

681
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,399
Speaker 4: didn't beat the Texans at NRG Stadium. This is fun

682
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 4: how about that? So so funny? It's some interesting number.

683
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 4: Here's the number six eighty six eight zero.

684
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:11,679
Speaker 2: Okay, Derrick Henry's total rushing yardage his last three trips

685
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:16,479
Speaker 2: to NRG Stadium. He's had two hundred plus yards and

686
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:21,919
Speaker 2: two plus rushing touchdowns in his last three times here

687
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:23,359
Speaker 2: at Energy States.

688
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 4: So here here comes the stat again, because the big

689
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 4: stat going into the matchup two weeks ago was the

690
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 4: last five games over one thousand yards for Derrick Henry

691
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:34,960
Speaker 4: against the Houston Texans, no matter where it is, right,

692
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 4: So you threw that ring into the fire with the

693
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 4: fair Barn fifty four yard field goal and the performance

694
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 4: you had against Henry Good done. But now he comes

695
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 4: back to n RG where he can summon this stat

696
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 4: as a motivator.

697
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 1: I guess it's his t Y Hilton stat is well over.

698
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,160
Speaker 4: Two hundred game against the Texans in each of the

699
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 4: last three and here.

700
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 2: Two plus touchdowns in each one. That's what unbelieved. That

701
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 2: doesn't even count what he did in twenty twenty. And

702
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 2: he is he the same bad No, he's not. He's

703
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 2: not good back, but he doesn't have the same offensive line.

704
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 2: Think last year, last year's game, he's running behind Luwan

705
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 2: and Ben Jones, Aaron Brewers at guard. It's a much

706
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 2: different offensive line. It was a much different offensive line

707
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 2: here than it was later in the season. Think Corey

708
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,840
Speaker 2: eleven playing center. I mean he's a career back.

709
00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:24,720
Speaker 4: He did not play in the second matchup last.

710
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 1: Year and not playing second matchup last year that I remember.

711
00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 4: And Ben's retired.

712
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, Ben's retired. Okay, you ready for this one?

713
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 4: Ready?

714
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 2: Since the second contest in two thousand and eight December fourteenth,

715
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 2: two thousand and eight between the Texans and Titans.

716
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 1: The Texans have.

717
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 2: Won eighteen of the twenty nine games over the Titans

718
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 2: regardless of location, eighteen and eleven overall record in those

719
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 2: twenty nine games. Also, three of those Titans wins came

720
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 2: on the last week of the regular season when the

721
00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:00,440
Speaker 2: Texans were resting starters after winning the AFC South eleven,

722
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:04,479
Speaker 2: twenty sixteen, and twenty nineteen. Yes, come about that. So

723
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 2: in games of Varsity v Varsity eighteen and eight in

724
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 2: twenty six games, the Texans have talking about flipping a rivalry.

725
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 4: That's where it really turned. It really turned with that

726
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 4: last matchup in twenty and eight. Yep, that thirteen twelve victory.

727
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 4: Then you got them week two of nine, and then

728
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 4: they won the other game in nine with Vince Young

729
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 4: and the rest is history. So yeah, you were able

730
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 4: to start getting some things going in the rivalry, a

731
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,440
Speaker 4: bunch of splits, and then you had some sweeps and

732
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,760
Speaker 4: you had Mettenberger. Gosh, what I would love, What I

733
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 4: would do for Zach Mettenberger to start this game for

734
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 4: the night Sunday and have what come out of the tunnel.

735
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:49,080
Speaker 4: Oh say you're coming back. I'm coming back too, because

736
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 4: you were my favorite quarterback to face.

737
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 2: Now you hear that as a Titans fan, you're like, Okay,

738
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 2: that's kind of gross. Yeah, but take out the varsity

739
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 2: v JV matchup been twenty nine at the end of

740
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 2: the year. Okay, twenty nine through twenty three margin of victory.

741
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 2: Twenty nineteen we won by three up there. Twenty twenty

742
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 2: we lost by six and overtime three on the last

743
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 2: play of the game. Twenty twenty one we won by nine,

744
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,959
Speaker 2: lost by three. Twenty twenty two we lost by seven,

745
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 2: won by five. Twenty twenty three we won by three

746
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 2: in overtime.

747
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 4: So wait, you're telling me the game that the Texans

748
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 4: were utterly, utterly dominated by seven at home last year,

749
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 4: only lost by seven, only lost by seven, only lost

750
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 4: by seven.

751
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 2: Such a beating, it felt like it. It felt like

752
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 2: it's seventeen ten.

753
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:39,400
Speaker 4: They beat up the Texans off the d line, yea

754
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 4: with Jeffson, sevens and friends. They were all over it.

755
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 2: So that's eight games minus the varsity JV game in

756
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 2: twenty nineteen that was here where Henry ran for two

757
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 2: hundred plus that got them in the playoffs.

758
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 1: They eventually went to the NFC Championship game that year.

759
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 2: But that's six seven eight, that's eight games since twenty

760
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 2: nineteen all within nine points. The largest margin of victories

761
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 2: nine points. And the Texans had that in the rain

762
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 2: game of twenty twenty one in Nashville. Oh my gosh, crazy.

763
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:11,240
Speaker 2: This is a weird rivalry. It it's really been weird

764
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 2: lately and very much so lately.

765
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 4: Well, the amount of games where you don't need the

766
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 4: game and stuff like that, and then one team's having

767
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,000
Speaker 4: a horrible season, but one team's having a good season.

768
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 4: The twenty twenty sweep by the Titans was so bizarre

769
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 4: because you had the overtime win up there, yeah, and

770
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 4: you had that let's go for two and put the

771
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:30,960
Speaker 4: game away with Simmons knocks to pass down on the

772
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 4: Titans drive right down the field and then they put

773
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 4: Derek Henry back in the game in overtime.

774
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 8: It's over.

775
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 4: That was awful, very difficult to take that. There have

776
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 4: been so many, but this year I think it's really interesting.

777
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 4: That's why I never put anything in the W column automatically,

778
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 4: especially this week. But even if the Texans were, you know,

779
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,000
Speaker 4: they had Dell total full strength here, Johnny, I would

780
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 4: still be sweating it out because totally.

781
00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 11: Anything can happen. Absolutely.

782
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 4: Look at last year they were sprit the Titans were

783
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:05,880
Speaker 4: for a victory to stop their losing streak, and the Texans.

784
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,800
Speaker 11: Come limping in and get the win.

785
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,440
Speaker 4: The year before, Tyrod Taylor comes back into the starting lineup,

786
00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 4: somehow runs for two touchdowns, you walk out of there

787
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 4: with a victory. Weird things happen in this series, and

788
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 4: that's why I'm really nervous about Sunday. You lose this one,

789
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 4: you need a lot of help and a victory over

790
00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 4: the Colts to get in. It's probably not gonna happen

791
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 4: if you lose this game. It's not an elimination game,

792
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 4: but it's very close.

793
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:31,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, very much so. So with that being said, we

794
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,560
Speaker 2: obviously want to Texas to win, there's no question. Yeah,

795
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 2: We've got to figure out who we're rooting for in

796
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 2: some other key ball games. Okay, Okay, so let's hit

797
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 2: a few of those as we're going through there. I'm

798
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 2: gonna predict all these games a little bit later. But

799
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 2: who are we rooting for Baltimore? I'm sorry, Miami travels

800
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 2: to Baltimore. Miami's eleven and four, Baltimore's twelve and three,

801
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:57,719
Speaker 2: a win by the Ravens gives them the number one seed.

802
00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 2: It I think they have it quite clinched yet, right

803
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 2: because they could lose twice and Cleveland could jump in there.

804
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 2: There's a way for Cleveland to be the number one seed.

805
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 2: There's a way, there's a way in for.

806
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 4: I think it's a conference record or something. There's a

807
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:11,440
Speaker 4: way in.

808
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 1: There's a way in for them to be the number

809
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:15,319
Speaker 1: one seed. It would be I.

810
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:19,120
Speaker 4: Think it would be division record if that's the case.

811
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:20,719
Speaker 4: But anyway, go on, I think so.

812
00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:24,279
Speaker 1: So Miami at Baltimore, who do we want to win?

813
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,719
Speaker 2: Keeping in mind not only our opinions of who we

814
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,759
Speaker 2: want to win, but how it plays out for the Texans.

815
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:32,200
Speaker 1: I'll go ahead start.

816
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:35,359
Speaker 2: I would like to see I'd actually like to see

817
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 2: Miami win this, yeah, because I want Baltimore to be

818
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,520
Speaker 2: playing in its final week and that's against Pittsburgh. Baltimore's

819
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 2: got both Miami and Pittsburgh got home to close the year.

820
00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 2: Baltimore should win both at a minimum split, I see,

821
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,840
Speaker 2: and then we go from there. But I want Miami

822
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:56,800
Speaker 2: to win because I feel like Miami. Miami's got a

823
00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:58,439
Speaker 2: shot of being the number one seed as well.

824
00:34:58,560 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 1: Right.

825
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 2: I just don't think Miami's gonna do it. But I'm

826
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,400
Speaker 2: cheering for Miami in this one against Baltimore.

827
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,400
Speaker 4: I think it's a great plan you have there. Have

828
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,799
Speaker 4: the Dolphins knock off the Ravens. Now, how does this

829
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 4: affect the Bills, who you would like to see lose twice? Yes,

830
00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:13,600
Speaker 4: down the stretch here they're nine and six right now,

831
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 4: they go nine and eight. As I check, I don't

832
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 4: know about common opponents. I check the conference record here, Yeah,

833
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 4: they will have a worse one, yes than the Houston

834
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:26,160
Speaker 4: Texans even if the so if they lose twice, they'll

835
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 4: go five and seven of the conference. Texans go one

836
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,239
Speaker 4: and one. They're six and six, Yeah, and that would

837
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 4: break a tie with them.

838
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:36,879
Speaker 2: So Buffalo takes on New England. We obviously hate rooting

839
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 2: for the Patriots under but we have to.

840
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:41,440
Speaker 4: We have to have hard to roof for the Patriots

841
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,360
Speaker 4: in a game or the Cowboys in a game. It's

842
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:46,279
Speaker 4: equally difficult. I feel I feel like it's harder to

843
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 4: root for the Patriots. I'm gonna go ahead and say it.

844
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 4: I like Dak I always have liked that.

845
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 2: People who listened for a while they know I like

846
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:55,960
Speaker 2: that I like seeing the Cowboys lose, but in this situation,

847
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 2: I want I want the Patriot. I want Bailey Zappy

848
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,040
Speaker 2: to turn into Tom freaking Brings, all right, So just

849
00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:01,800
Speaker 2: make it happen.

850
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 4: The Cowboys winning in the regular season almost just fattens

851
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 4: up the goose for the playoff feast by the opponent,

852
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,880
Speaker 4: because under no circumstances will I ever root for the

853
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:14,320
Speaker 4: Cowboys to advance in the postseason.

854
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: I agree with that.

855
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 4: At that point, you're all NFC. It's not helping you text.

856
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 4: I'm good with you, So I agree with what you

857
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:26,239
Speaker 4: just said. Okay, Cincinnati goes to Kansas City. I want

858
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 4: Cincinnati out of the mix, I really do. I want

859
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:29,280
Speaker 4: them out.

860
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:33,359
Speaker 2: So Cincinnati losing to Kansas City I think would end

861
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,360
Speaker 2: up being a good thing. So I'm going I'm cheering.

862
00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:38,239
Speaker 2: I am a swiftie on Sunday for Kansas City.

863
00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:40,920
Speaker 4: What happens to the to the nine and eight Bouja

864
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:46,360
Speaker 4: base Kansas City loses, Kansas City's out and the Bengals

865
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:49,839
Speaker 4: split and you got nine and eight, nine and eight.

866
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 4: I mean you could have, like how many nine and

867
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 4: eight possibilities are?

868
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,279
Speaker 2: There's a path, Like I said, there's a path for

869
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,239
Speaker 2: Cleveland to be number one seed. There's a path for

870
00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:58,880
Speaker 2: the Chiefs to get bounced from the playoffs.

871
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:02,399
Speaker 4: Altogether are not to root for, but we need help

872
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:03,440
Speaker 4: here for ourselves.

873
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 12: Now.

874
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,359
Speaker 2: Kansas City's got Cincinnati at home and then they go

875
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:07,320
Speaker 2: and take on the Chargers.

876
00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 4: What's weird about this weekend is if the Texans lose

877
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:15,680
Speaker 4: on Sunday and the Colts and Jags both win, the

878
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:21,400
Speaker 4: Texans are still not eliminated unless the Bills win or

879
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:28,680
Speaker 4: Pittsburgh and Cincy both lose. Is that it tie breaker

880
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:30,440
Speaker 4: weirdness going on there?

881
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 2: There's a potential for the Texans to lose, And as

882
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 2: we're walking out of this building, out of the playoff race,

883
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 2: there's that potential.

884
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 4: There is that potential. So I know it's not Pittsburgh

885
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:46,000
Speaker 4: and Cincinnati. It's Pittsburgh and Denver both losing. Jags win,

886
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:49,840
Speaker 4: Colts win, Texans lose, You're done on Sunday.

887
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:50,840
Speaker 1: That sucks.

888
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 4: Say it again, Jags win and Pittsburgh and Denver both lose.

889
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 4: That eliminates the Texans. Oh, now that's a possibility because

890
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:02,680
Speaker 4: it's going to clear the way for somebody to get

891
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 4: the tie breaker over the Texans. So that's what it is.

892
00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:10,080
Speaker 4: And oh my god, god, who but Buffalo winning, Jags winning,

893
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:13,160
Speaker 4: Colts winning, and the Texans losing. That means you're out.

894
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:15,279
Speaker 4: You're done going into Week eighteen and all you can

895
00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 4: really hope to play for is ruining the Colts season,

896
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 4: which would be something at that point. In fact, if

897
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:24,560
Speaker 4: you told me this in training camp and said let's

898
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,239
Speaker 4: make a deal. You have that on the table or

899
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,239
Speaker 4: what's behind door number two, I still would have picked

900
00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:31,840
Speaker 4: door number two because I would say, oh goody with

901
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:33,319
Speaker 4: that good Where we have a chance on a winning

902
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:36,319
Speaker 4: season of the final day, that's something. But I'll take

903
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,080
Speaker 4: my chances on the other thing, which is making the postseason.

904
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:44,040
Speaker 2: Okay, So we want Kansas City to beat Cincinnati. I said,

905
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:45,960
Speaker 2: I want Miami to be Baltimore because it has to

906
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:46,880
Speaker 2: play in with the Steelers.

907
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 1: Now, the Steelers are playing at Seattle.

908
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Steelers have the toughest two ball games down

909
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 2: the stretch.

910
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:59,719
Speaker 1: They are at Seattle, then they're at Baltimore.

911
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:06,360
Speaker 2: Now the Baltimore game is rendered meaningless if Baltimore beats Miami. Yeah,

912
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,360
Speaker 2: so we want Pittsburgh out. We want Pittsburgh just lose

913
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:12,280
Speaker 2: both games. You're eight and nine, you're out of the mix.

914
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 2: See you don't want to be you. That'd be nice.

915
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 2: Just get Pittsburgh out of the mix. Now there's the

916
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:18,440
Speaker 2: other side of me, the thanks keep Pittsburgh in the

917
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 2: mix because you have to win over them, so you

918
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,320
Speaker 2: have the head to head tiebreaker. If for some somehow,

919
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,400
Speaker 2: some way you both ended up ninety and eight, you

920
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:27,160
Speaker 2: would end up getting it. So there's a part of

921
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:31,160
Speaker 2: me that wants Pittsburgh and Cincinnati kind of stay in it.

922
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:35,359
Speaker 2: But if you eliminate them and you get them out

923
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 2: and you take care of your business, then okay, comes

924
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:40,240
Speaker 2: down to some head to head tie breakers elsewhere.

925
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:41,279
Speaker 1: Buffalo's take it on New England.

926
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 2: We talked about that, Miami's going to Baltimore, talked about that.

927
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 1: Jacksonville.

928
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 2: Here's the way it looks in the division, and the

929
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 2: division is very that's the easiest scenario. Yeah, win both

930
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:54,320
Speaker 2: jack lose once, which is entirely possible. The Jags finished

931
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:59,359
Speaker 2: with Carolina on Sunday and then at Tennessee. Of all

932
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,840
Speaker 2: the teams them all written down who they're playing, the

933
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:07,080
Speaker 2: combined record of opponents for the Jacksonville Jaguars is seven wins.

934
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:10,400
Speaker 2: And twenty three losses Carolina and Tennessee. But you know

935
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:13,680
Speaker 2: as well as I do, Tennessee has always been a

936
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:14,880
Speaker 2: thorn in the side of the Jags.

937
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,400
Speaker 4: Absolutely, I would love Look if it comes down to that,

938
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 4: Titans lose this week against the Texans, but they still

939
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:25,360
Speaker 4: have a motivator to spoil the Jags. Yes, that's a motivator,

940
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:27,440
Speaker 4: and that game is in Nashville, and I think the

941
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:30,120
Speaker 4: Titans will be very motivated this week, yeah, to ruin

942
00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:33,239
Speaker 4: the Texans season, So they'll have plenty left over no

943
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 4: matter what happens this week, unless Henry's gonna sit really

944
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 4: and then they just shut it down for Week eighteen.

945
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,880
Speaker 4: I don't see them doing that though. Okay, here's the

946
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:42,839
Speaker 4: trickiest one of all.

947
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:48,280
Speaker 2: Okay, the Indianapolis Colts are facing the Las Vegas Raiders

948
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:50,680
Speaker 2: in Lucas Oil.

949
00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:52,320
Speaker 11: Yeah.

950
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:55,160
Speaker 2: I've gone back and forth on this because I feel

951
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:58,000
Speaker 2: like at nine and eight the Raiders are the Raiders

952
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 2: went out, the Raiders have got Yeah. At any and

953
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 2: then Denver, the Raiders went out. The Raiders are a

954
00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:05,640
Speaker 2: thorn in the side of the Texans, so they look

955
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:08,400
Speaker 2: they will split and the Raiders are nine to eight

956
00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:10,440
Speaker 2: winning both the Raiders are going to get in.

957
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,520
Speaker 4: They'll have a seven and five conference record and the

958
00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 4: Texans split would be six and six six in the AFC.

959
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:20,399
Speaker 4: That means the Raiders are in. So the Raiders. It's

960
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,360
Speaker 4: weird because the Raiders beating the Colts this weekend really

961
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:26,239
Speaker 4: does nothing for you, right, it really doesn't.

962
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:26,920
Speaker 1: He says, it doesn't.

963
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 4: You have to beat the Colts next week. If the

964
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 4: Raiders not, you have to beat the Colts. Yeah, it

965
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 4: doesn't matter if the rate. If the Colts lose this

966
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:37,799
Speaker 4: weekend and you win, they can beat you next week.

967
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,399
Speaker 4: But guess what if the Jags lose, you could still

968
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 4: slide in, possibly possibly as a wild card if you

969
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:45,240
Speaker 4: get the tie breakers. But then all the other stuff.

970
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:48,399
Speaker 4: It's so wild, Johnny, with two weeks to go, it's

971
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:51,719
Speaker 4: not simple to explain. No, I said, this is this

972
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 4: is like foreign business on American soil tax preparation. This

973
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 4: is really complex. This is like when you get your

974
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:00,480
Speaker 4: K one, if you have one of those investments and

975
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:03,040
Speaker 4: you're like, yeah, what the hell is this. That's what

976
00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:06,360
Speaker 4: the tiebreaker scenarios look like going into the final two weeks.

977
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 4: Next week, it should be a little well a lot

978
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:09,239
Speaker 4: more clear, let's face it.

979
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,880
Speaker 2: So there's a possibility of actually cheering for the Colts

980
00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:13,640
Speaker 2: to beat the Raiders.

981
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:16,920
Speaker 11: Yeah, but I'm not gonna cheer. I'm gonna let.

982
00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:18,240
Speaker 4: That one play.

983
00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:21,239
Speaker 1: Good point, cheer, just let it go.

984
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:22,280
Speaker 4: We'll let it onfold.

985
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 1: It never happens.

986
00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:25,399
Speaker 11: Whatever happens, I'm cheering for people.

987
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 2: You end up benefiting either way, because if the Colts win,

988
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:31,320
Speaker 2: the Raiders are knocked out. Yeah, the Raiders are done

989
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:34,920
Speaker 2: and you got to beat the Colts anyways. So at

990
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:38,359
Speaker 2: that point, but if the Raiders end up winning, well,

991
00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:43,000
Speaker 2: now the Colts are scarred and scarred. They're scarred, and

992
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 2: I like the Colts being emotionally scarred.

993
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:48,399
Speaker 4: But Johnny, it's the Colts. I'll do with this all

994
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 4: next week, you know it. It doesn't matter who's playing.

995
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:54,959
Speaker 4: You could start Ellinger, you could sit everybody else down.

996
00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:57,520
Speaker 4: They'll still have a shot against the Texas. Yes, because

997
00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:00,239
Speaker 4: dan Orlovski in twenty eleven, because of all the three,

998
00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:02,239
Speaker 4: because of hassel Back at a diaper, because all of it.

999
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:07,359
Speaker 2: Yes, the Colts the Nemesis, that's next week. It's the

1000
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:09,920
Speaker 2: Titans this week. So those are your scenarios. So you

1001
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 2: can watch the Raiders and Colts, and know you're gonna

1002
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,399
Speaker 2: win either way. You're gonna You're gonna win any way.

1003
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:17,280
Speaker 2: Colts win, Raiders are pretty are knocked out, They're done.

1004
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:20,120
Speaker 2: If the Raiders win, well, then the Colts are sitting

1005
00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:22,439
Speaker 2: at eight and eight, and that's just an extra loss

1006
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:23,400
Speaker 2: and additional loss.

1007
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:23,640
Speaker 1: For the Colts.

1008
00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:26,840
Speaker 4: Taff started to feel it now. Yeah, I know, I

1009
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:27,880
Speaker 4: know starting to feel it.

1010
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:31,400
Speaker 2: This is awesome thinking what were we thinking at this

1011
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:32,840
Speaker 2: time last year.

1012
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:37,839
Speaker 4: Not like, how does that Levis from Kentucky look exactly?

1013
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 1: You know, how does he compare to the top two guys?

1014
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:42,320
Speaker 1: What about Bryson CJ?

1015
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 11: I want CJ, I want Brice.

1016
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 2: We didn't hear a lot of I want CJ. I

1017
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:50,000
Speaker 2: played the comments for Bruce felbyn uh back up a

1018
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:51,840
Speaker 2: few weeks ago that I had gotten from him in

1019
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:54,719
Speaker 2: the Big twelve media days, and he just talked about

1020
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:58,960
Speaker 2: CJ like he was sort of kind of like frustrated

1021
00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:02,879
Speaker 2: in some sense that's had been so disregarded in some

1022
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 2: sense next to Bryce Young, like it was all Bryce,

1023
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:06,200
Speaker 2: it was all Bryce.

1024
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,279
Speaker 1: He's like, I got two eyes. I watched that guy

1025
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:09,880
Speaker 1: throw the football. I know he's pretty arn't good.

1026
00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:11,720
Speaker 4: But you know when you watch the Hot dam Pastorini

1027
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:13,719
Speaker 4: when he said to us best release in the history,

1028
00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:17,200
Speaker 4: credible of the game, I mean really that's I'm paraphrasing,

1029
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:20,399
Speaker 4: but he said it's the best release he's ever seen,

1030
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,680
Speaker 4: including players he watched growing up. He went in depth

1031
00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 4: about it, and it's on the Vanderpod right now. Listen

1032
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 4: on Houston Texans dot Com, Spotify, iTunes. Pastorini's comments about

1033
00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:31,960
Speaker 4: the two thirty mark go ahead if you need to

1034
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:33,719
Speaker 4: save time to thirty mark of the Vanderpod.

1035
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:35,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, there you go. Go check it out. All right,

1036
00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:38,040

1037
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 2: in some of these games? What are some of the injuries,

1038
00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:42,560
Speaker 2: who's being left out? I know a lot of you

1039
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 2: have got your fantasy super Bowl coming up, so we'll

1040
00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:46,719
Speaker 2: try and give you a few nuggets of who's in

1041
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 2: who's out across the league.

1042
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:52,719
Speaker 1: Including well, the Wattle will not be seen in Baltimore.

1043
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:54,120
Speaker 1: That could be big. We'll have that for you next

1044
00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:55,280
Speaker 1: or here in Texans All Access.

1045
00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 2: Happy Friday, everybody, Welcome back to this edition of Texans

1046
00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:00,800
Speaker 2: All Access. I'm your host, John Ferris Football on the

1047
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 2: side of the reporter for the Houston Texans and glad

1048
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 2: to be with you this evening. But there's a lot,

1049
00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:10,000
Speaker 2: a lot going on. I told my wife earlier today.

1050
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,400
Speaker 2: I was like, man, you get the week fifteen, sixteen,

1051
00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:17,080
Speaker 2: seventeen eighteen, and it is an absolute crapshoot. Who you're

1052
00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:20,680
Speaker 2: gonna see, who's gonna be available? I mean it's nuts.

1053
00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 2: And when you look out around the league, you see

1054
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:29,399
Speaker 2: it everywhere everywhere. Let's start in Jacksonville Jaguars are gonna

1055
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:33,360
Speaker 2: be taken on to Carolina Panthers. But for the first

1056
00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:39,680
Speaker 2: time in his career from an injury standpoint, Trevor Lawrence

1057
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:42,239
Speaker 2: missed one game at Clemson due to COVID That was

1058
00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:45,799
Speaker 2: a Notre Dame game back in twenty twenty. He has

1059
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 2: not missed a game due to quote unquote injury. He

1060
00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:53,759
Speaker 2: will on Sunday. He is out against the Carolina Panthers.

1061
00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:59,040
Speaker 2: It is ced j bethir time in Jacksonville. And if

1062
00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:02,160
Speaker 2: you take into account mart I talked about the division

1063
00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:07,759
Speaker 2: is real simple. Win two games, Jacksonville loses one, that's it,

1064
00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:12,000
Speaker 2: and you have the division. Actually, they could tie once,

1065
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:16,560
Speaker 2: they could tie once, I mean just to tie get

1066
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:21,200
Speaker 2: you the division? How about that? So no Trevor Lawrence

1067
00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:24,600
Speaker 2: on Sunday against the Panthers. Now, the Jaguars have the

1068
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:29,920
Speaker 2: easiest schedule according to the opponent's records. Left Carolina's two

1069
00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:33,640
Speaker 2: and twelve, two and thirteen, Tennessee's five and ten. That's

1070
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,439
Speaker 2: seven and twenty three. Of all the teams that are

1071
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:41,920
Speaker 2: playing that have playoff possibilities, that's the worst mark. The

1072
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:47,160
Speaker 2: second worst is the Texans and the Chiefs thirteen and seventeen.

1073
00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 2: Is the Texans play five and ten, Titans eight and

1074
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:54,280
Speaker 2: seven Colts, the Kansas City Chiefs play Cincinnati eight to seven,

1075
00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:58,200
Speaker 2: LA Charges five and ten. So the Jaguars, even without

1076
00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:03,120
Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence, probably gonna have a chance to play and

1077
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:06,200
Speaker 2: win at home against the Panthers. Although Bryce Young could

1078
00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:08,319
Speaker 2: do us a solid do his buddy CJ. Stroudasalad which

1079
00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:12,000
Speaker 2: would be kind of nice. Jalen Wattle in the biggest

1080
00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 2: game of the week, the Ravens taken on the Dolphins.

1081
00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:19,560
Speaker 2: Mark and I talked about this. Jalen Wattle out. That

1082
00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:25,520
Speaker 2: is a big, big loss for Baltimore. For Miami against

1083
00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:29,279
Speaker 2: the Baltimore Ravens. Game played up in Baltimore, Miami not

1084
00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:34,360
Speaker 2: going to be one hundred percent. He is out dealing

1085
00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:37,160
Speaker 2: with an ankle. Now, ra Hee mostered is questionable, so

1086
00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:38,920
Speaker 2: something to definitely keep.

1087
00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:41,720
Speaker 1: An eye on. The Ravens have a couple guys questionable

1088
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:42,040
Speaker 1: as well.

1089
00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:45,080
Speaker 2: To watch the Flowers with a calf and Kyle Hamilton

1090
00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:46,960
Speaker 2: with a He went limping off the field the other night,

1091
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:50,359
Speaker 2: So definitely keep an eye on those guys. Those are

1092
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:53,120
Speaker 2: probably the biggest ones that are out. We'll talk about

1093
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:56,400
Speaker 2: the Texas injury report a little bit later because we

1094
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:58,520

1104
00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:31,440
Speaker 2: the man calling the action on television is Chris Myers

1105
00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:33,760
Speaker 2: from Fox. He's called a few games of the Texans

1106
00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:35,680
Speaker 2: this year. I think it's probably pretty good luck. Chris

1107
00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:38,439
Speaker 2: Myers is here. He's created a little bond.

1108
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:39,720
Speaker 1: With our pal Drew Doherty.

1109
00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:44,480
Speaker 2: Let's go behind enemy sidelines kind of with Drew Doherty

1110
00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:46,240
Speaker 2: and Chris Myers from Fox.

1111
00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:50,520
Speaker 3: Friend of the program, Chris Myers of Fox Sports is

1112
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:52,720
Speaker 3: with us. Chris, see, we've done this now three times.

1113
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:55,080
Speaker 3: It's good to see you. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year,

1114
00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:59,080
Speaker 3: all that stuff. First things first, the Texans, like you

1115
00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:01,920
Speaker 3: just mentioned off Aeron to me in the Hunt, it's

1116
00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:04,440
Speaker 3: an exciting thing. It's not something that's happened around here

1117
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,279
Speaker 3: since twenty nineteen. How excited are you to call this

1118
00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:10,320
Speaker 3: game with Robert Smith on Sunday against the Titans.

1119
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:14,000
Speaker 13: Excited because we get an early look at c J.

1120
00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 13: Stroud in person actually called that Jacksonville that went up

1121
00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:20,520
Speaker 13: at Jacksonville his first win, and that second half against

1122
00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:22,719
Speaker 13: the Colts there at Houston when he when he really

1123
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:24,759
Speaker 13: came to life. And then and then we got to

1124
00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:27,920
Speaker 13: see him with Tank Tell who unfortunately obviously as fans

1125
00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:29,799
Speaker 13: knows out of it, but love that he throws the

1126
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:34,239
Speaker 13: ball deep loved his attitude where it's all points to

1127
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:36,160
Speaker 13: him playing off the concussion.

1128
00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:37,680
Speaker 12: So he's an exciting point.

1129
00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:40,680
Speaker 13: He's a star, you know, and and so I like

1130
00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:43,600
Speaker 13: that about this team, and I like, you know, look,

1131
00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:46,400
Speaker 13: you may not win a Coach of the Year or

1132
00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:48,759
Speaker 13: Rookie of the Year, but between Tamika Ryans and him,

1133
00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:52,719
Speaker 13: I mean, we saw that early and it's it's continuing

1134
00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:54,800
Speaker 13: as long as he's healthy. And I like the idea

1135
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:57,040
Speaker 13: that you win your last two year in maybe there's

1136
00:49:57,040 --> 00:49:59,360
Speaker 13: still a division title in your grasp.

1137
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:00,800
Speaker 12: And it's very believable.

1138
00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:03,000
Speaker 13: I mean, considering how this team I can't get over

1139
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:05,080
Speaker 13: they have three wins last year and I've done some

1140
00:50:05,480 --> 00:50:07,520
Speaker 13: Houston games, as you know, in the last couple of years.

1141
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:10,000
Speaker 13: I mean, this is this is a major turnaround in

1142
00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:12,440
Speaker 13: a short time. Obviously, you get a quarterback like Stroud,

1143
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,960
Speaker 13: and the defensive especially stopped in the run. There's other parts,

1144
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:18,240
Speaker 13: there's other pieces, but it's been it's been enjoyable.

1145
00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:20,479
Speaker 3: I tell you, yeah, it's been a lot of funny.

1146
00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:22,360
Speaker 3: And you say I can't believe it will join the club.

1147
00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:25,799
Speaker 3: I mean, I knew the Texans would be better, and

1148
00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,680
Speaker 3: I thought they'd be better than most people believed they

1149
00:50:28,680 --> 00:50:30,720
Speaker 3: would be. But I didn't know it'd be this good

1150
00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:33,160
Speaker 3: this soon. And like you mentioned, they've got a really

1151
00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:36,920
Speaker 3: realistic shot at getting double digit wins. Let's stick with Stroud.

1152
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:39,720
Speaker 3: He practiced the last two days, met with the media today.

1153
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:43,240
Speaker 3: He's out of the concussion protocol, says he's ready to start,

1154
00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:45,919
Speaker 3: you know, barring something unforeseen. He's gonna be the guy

1155
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:49,440
Speaker 3: under center when he starts on Sunday. And you touched

1156
00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:52,120
Speaker 3: on the deep ball. He's one of the best in

1157
00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:55,080
Speaker 3: the NFL, if not the best, at the completions of

1158
00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:57,960
Speaker 3: twenty yards or more of the air yards. And it's

1159
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:00,279
Speaker 3: been so much fun to watch. It's like Al Davis

1160
00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:04,080
Speaker 3: is the laid out Davis's dream, but nobody does it

1161
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:05,719
Speaker 3: that well, or nobody really seems to do it that

1162
00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:08,080
Speaker 3: well at that young and age. Is that What kind

1163
00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:10,560
Speaker 3: of on the field makes you the most excited as

1164
00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:11,360
Speaker 3: a play by play.

1165
00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:14,160
Speaker 13: Guy, Yes, I mean we love the big plays. People say, oh,

1166
00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:16,640
Speaker 13: you're biased, and we like games at least as a

1167
00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:19,239
Speaker 13: broadcast crew. We like games to be close, and we

1168
00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:21,799
Speaker 13: like big plays a lot of offense. I mean, games

1169
00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:24,280
Speaker 13: could be exciting defensively, but there's a lot of scoring.

1170
00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:28,880
Speaker 13: And you just don't see rookie quarterbacks come in and

1171
00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:32,719
Speaker 13: throw the ball down the field as successfully and make

1172
00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:36,280
Speaker 13: other throws as well, but especially those kinds of throws.

1173
00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:39,520
Speaker 13: And again even without Dell, I mean involving now Noah Brown,

1174
00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:42,399
Speaker 13: I mean, Nico Collins has been terrific. Some of that's

1175
00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:44,600
Speaker 13: you know, catching carry, but as far as throwing it downfield,

1176
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:46,480
Speaker 13: to me, it's a wow factor.

1177
00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:48,279
Speaker 12: And yeah, I mean, and I.

1178
00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:51,279
Speaker 13: Know these two teams, the Texans Titans, and we open

1179
00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:53,560
Speaker 13: a season with these are two of the most injured teams,

1180
00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:55,480
Speaker 13: or at least teams have had the most injuries through

1181
00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:58,040
Speaker 13: the course of the season. So that's where you worry about,

1182
00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:00,320
Speaker 13: you know. And they have their quarterback issue health wise

1183
00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:04,120
Speaker 13: with Will Levis, but the offensive lineman shuffling and who's

1184
00:52:04,120 --> 00:52:07,239
Speaker 13: healthy and who's going to play. But he's withstood all

1185
00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:10,640
Speaker 13: that Stroud has and so has the team, uh to

1186
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:13,560
Speaker 13: be where they are. So but yes, that's to me.

1187
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:17,719
Speaker 13: Other and his composure early we saw it. I you know,

1188
00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,040
Speaker 13: he didn't want to run, he wanted to throw the ball,

1189
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:22,920
Speaker 13: and you know, well now he's I think, well, this

1190
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:25,480
Speaker 13: may change a little bit after the concussion, but you know,

1191
00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:28,040
Speaker 13: and now he runs in key spots to get first

1192
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:30,759
Speaker 13: downs to Strout, So he's smart about it too. But

1193
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:33,400
Speaker 13: his demeanor too when we sat with him in person,

1194
00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:36,920
Speaker 13: I mean it's very confident and very humble and appreciates

1195
00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:39,520
Speaker 13: his team and his coaching around him and Bobby Slow

1196
00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:42,920
Speaker 13: at the offensive coordinator of course Demiko Ryant.

1197
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:44,560
Speaker 12: So yeah, I've been on it. I jumped on the

1198
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:45,640
Speaker 12: bandwagon with him early.

1199
00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:47,440
Speaker 13: I didn't know you have the wins you have there

1200
00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:50,279
Speaker 13: in Houston, but uh, to me, I wasn't afraid to

1201
00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:52,680
Speaker 13: near the halfway pointing when they say, I think this

1202
00:52:52,760 --> 00:52:54,840
Speaker 13: team can go to the PLATFFS can win the division

1203
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:57,920
Speaker 13: even we'll see what Jacksonville does. But I didn't know

1204
00:52:57,960 --> 00:52:59,640
Speaker 13: he obviously he was going to miss a couple of games.

1205
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:00,799
Speaker 12: But we're glad he's back.

1206
00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:04,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're keeping receipts. And you definitely have bona fides

1207
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:06,239
Speaker 3: because Chris Myers, if you're just now joining us, Chris

1208
00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:08,400
Speaker 3: Myers of Fox Sports is talking with us, and yes,

1209
00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:12,240
Speaker 3: in September, in October, Chris was very much in CJ.

1210
00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:15,040
Speaker 3: Stroud's corner and very very impressed. And you brought up

1211
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:17,800
Speaker 3: Tank Dell. Big loss for this team, and the offense

1212
00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:21,359
Speaker 3: has not been what it was when Tank Dell was

1213
00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:24,200
Speaker 3: playing that first game or so without him, you know,

1214
00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:27,960
Speaker 3: was also coincident, coincided with when when CJ. Stroud went

1215
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:31,880
Speaker 3: down with a concussion. But Nico Collins one thousand yards

1216
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:34,319
Speaker 3: and he still has two more games to go. It's

1217
00:53:34,360 --> 00:53:36,920
Speaker 3: been an excellent season for him. How much fun have

1218
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:40,040
Speaker 3: you had watching him and preparing for these games and

1219
00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:42,439
Speaker 3: seeing what he's done. Because we knew he was big,

1220
00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:44,960
Speaker 3: we knew he was fast. I didn't know that he

1221
00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:47,759
Speaker 3: played with the controlled violence after the catch that he

1222
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:50,680
Speaker 3: has shown this year? How much how much of an

1223
00:53:50,719 --> 00:53:52,600
Speaker 3: oddity as Nico Collins been.

1224
00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:54,600
Speaker 12: Yeah, that's a good way to put it.

1225
00:53:54,680 --> 00:53:56,800
Speaker 13: That could he's very physical after the catch that he

1226
00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:59,120
Speaker 13: I don't know what they should know by now. I

1227
00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:01,640
Speaker 13: mean for as long as defensive backs, if they they

1228
00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,759
Speaker 13: think he's going to be as as physically strong and

1229
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:07,480
Speaker 13: as fast. He has doesn't look like a speedy guy,

1230
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:09,879
Speaker 13: but he gets he gets going after the catch. He's

1231
00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:12,000
Speaker 13: got We talk about that other gear and I noticed

1232
00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:14,759
Speaker 13: just in preparing and obviously too, you know, taking on

1233
00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:17,600
Speaker 13: the deep ball more uh, as well, it's not just

1234
00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:20,600
Speaker 13: you know, yards after catch, but his yard. He's second

1235
00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:24,160
Speaker 13: in the in the NFL with receiving yards at home

1236
00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:26,360
Speaker 13: at bit I forget it's I mean, you mentioned his

1237
00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:28,200
Speaker 13: thousand up, but I think only Nkoua with the with

1238
00:54:28,239 --> 00:54:30,440
Speaker 13: the rams, the outstanding of who can coup the rookie

1239
00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:33,160
Speaker 13: has only more receiving yards at home. So obviously he's

1240
00:54:33,160 --> 00:54:35,080
Speaker 13: a little more comfortable there. But even when he's been

1241
00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:37,680
Speaker 13: on the roll, whenever we've seen him, yes, big, big

1242
00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:39,799
Speaker 13: playmaker and and one of those parts you know, you

1243
00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:42,200
Speaker 13: talk about being healthy, there's a guy when we covered

1244
00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:43,879
Speaker 13: him in the past, he was. He was hurt a lot,

1245
00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:45,799
Speaker 13: you know, with as he to be big to take

1246
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:47,640
Speaker 13: on the you know, and having again and bringing in

1247
00:54:47,680 --> 00:54:50,040
Speaker 13: a guy like Dalton's Schultz and another thing that jumped

1248
00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:51,560
Speaker 13: out of me just I know we're talking about a Nico,

1249
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:55,120
Speaker 13: but uh, you know the move with with Singletary and

1250
00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:57,040
Speaker 13: and and Olak Pierce you know had had done such

1251
00:54:57,239 --> 00:55:00,600
Speaker 13: a good job last year. But but Singletary is ten.

1252
00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:02,359
Speaker 13: I mean, he's in the top five in the entire

1253
00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:04,680
Speaker 13: NFL at in total scribbage yards and you can use

1254
00:55:04,719 --> 00:55:07,600
Speaker 13: them in a lot of ways, and again working behind

1255
00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:10,560
Speaker 13: an offensive line that said the shuffle because of injury,

1256
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:13,000
Speaker 13: and again Stroud knowing how to use him. But maybe

1257
00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:17,320
Speaker 13: that opens things up more for somebody like like Nico Collins.

1258
00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:19,880
Speaker 13: And again Noah Brown too, at least getting downfield now

1259
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:21,919
Speaker 13: that he's healthy, because he wasn't early in the year.

1260
00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:24,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're talking with Chris Meyers of Fox Sports. He's

1261
00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:27,120
Speaker 3: got the call with Robert Griffin the Sunday Texans and Titans,

1262
00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:30,240
Speaker 3: and Chris the Texans team. You brought up injuries earlier.

1263
00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:34,600
Speaker 3: The defensive ends Will Anderson junior Jonathan Garnard questioned marks

1264
00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:38,279
Speaker 3: as far as their ability availability goes going against an

1265
00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:40,799
Speaker 3: offense with Derrick Henry that they shut down a few

1266
00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:42,520
Speaker 3: weeks ago. But it's a little tougher to do so

1267
00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:45,799
Speaker 3: when you don't have those frontline guys like those two.

1268
00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:48,920
Speaker 3: What sort of impact have you seen on the season

1269
00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:51,319
Speaker 3: from them and what you watch back early this year

1270
00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:51,919
Speaker 3: to now.

1271
00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:55,080
Speaker 13: Yeah, and Grenard one of the most important players. I

1272
00:55:55,120 --> 00:55:56,920
Speaker 13: think boy Cashman will be back healthy.

1273
00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:57,239
Speaker 12: That's good.

1274
00:55:57,280 --> 00:56:00,319
Speaker 13: At least we're expecting, you know, I know Rank has

1275
00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:02,080
Speaker 13: an ankle injury. I think it's a hip injury. In

1276
00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:04,960
Speaker 13: the league Collins, So they're all kind of beat up

1277
00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:07,080
Speaker 13: up front. You're going to need some of the guys,

1278
00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:11,040
Speaker 13: you know, Heinich, whatever Sanders said to help out. I'm

1279
00:56:11,040 --> 00:56:13,239
Speaker 13: hoping will Anders and we saw him play big early.

1280
00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:15,680
Speaker 13: I think we called his his first sack our broadcast

1281
00:56:15,719 --> 00:56:19,120
Speaker 13: crew in the NFL. That's an important element with Derek

1282
00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:22,000
Speaker 13: Henry because he can wear you down. And even though

1283
00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:25,400
Speaker 13: he's not had the typical Derek Henry a year, you know,

1284
00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:28,120
Speaker 13: he's closing in on a thousand yards. He's a guy

1285
00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:30,399
Speaker 13: and I don't realize too it he didn't really become

1286
00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:33,160
Speaker 13: a regular starter in the NFL until he was like

1287
00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:35,160
Speaker 13: three years into the into the league. And he's a

1288
00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:39,040
Speaker 13: massed incredible numbers and he's got eighty nine career touchdowns

1289
00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:42,040
Speaker 13: and that type of thing. So, but you the advantage

1290
00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,320
Speaker 13: is if the quarterback and the passing game isn't a

1291
00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:48,400
Speaker 13: strong for Tennessee, well that's where I'm sure Demiko Ryans

1292
00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:50,760
Speaker 13: will have some adjustments to make if if the guys

1293
00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:53,560
Speaker 13: up front aren't as healthy, So where you can put

1294
00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:56,399
Speaker 13: pressure or how you can gang up on the run

1295
00:56:57,040 --> 00:56:59,680
Speaker 13: against whomever the quarterback is going to be for Tennessee.

1296
00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:03,120
Speaker 13: So I and that that's another thing, just the numbers.

1297
00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:05,600
Speaker 13: I remember we did the games a few games last year.

1298
00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:08,080
Speaker 13: Give it up one hundred and seventy yards on the ground, right,

1299
00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:11,520
Speaker 13: So yeah, the Texans and now I mean it's almost

1300
00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:14,719
Speaker 13: like an eighty or seventy nine yard improvement in that

1301
00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:17,920
Speaker 13: in that stopping the run category. And again, I know

1302
00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:20,000
Speaker 13: there's some has some injuries in the secondary and some

1303
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:21,920
Speaker 13: guys are beat up there. We'll miss Jimmy Ward and

1304
00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:24,440
Speaker 13: Kareem Jackson has has been added, so we'll see how

1305
00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:25,080
Speaker 13: that plays out.

1306
00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:27,040
Speaker 12: But they have been good against the run. That's the point.

1307
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:29,560
Speaker 12: And that's what you know Tennessee wants to do.

1308
00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:30,280
Speaker 4: Uh.

1309
00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:33,000
Speaker 13: And that's where it starts with with Derek Henry and

1310
00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:36,160
Speaker 13: so you know, I think there's reason despite injury that

1311
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:38,680
Speaker 13: you can be confident enough and you get a lead

1312
00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:41,600
Speaker 13: and let them run the clock and slow things down for.

1313
00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:44,200
Speaker 3: You, no doubt. You know, we were talking and joking

1314
00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:47,160
Speaker 3: around with John McLean, longtime NFL columnists who says to

1315
00:57:47,160 --> 00:57:50,040
Speaker 3: say hello, by the way, and Mark Vandermer voice of

1316
00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:53,000
Speaker 3: the Texans earlier today. You know, five six months ago,

1317
00:57:53,040 --> 00:57:55,040
Speaker 3: we were just saying, hey, let's see if this run

1318
00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:57,480
Speaker 3: defense could be mediocre and there's no talent, how far

1319
00:57:57,560 --> 00:57:59,680
Speaker 3: this team could go. Now, it's a strength of the team,

1320
00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:03,080
Speaker 3: like you just brought up. We want to kind of

1321
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:05,520
Speaker 3: veer off a little bit here. You're a perfect guy

1322
00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:07,480
Speaker 3: to talk to about this. Last night, we see the

1323
00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:10,040
Speaker 3: Hall of Fame Pro Football Hall of Fame finalists list

1324
00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:13,920
Speaker 3: come out. Andre Johnson is in that list of fifteen.

1325
00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:16,959
Speaker 3: We're obviously biased. I think he belongs. What's your take

1326
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:20,480
Speaker 3: on what number eighty meant in the NFL in his

1327
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:24,880
Speaker 3: chances or viability of being a Pro Football Hall of Famer?

1328
00:58:25,280 --> 00:58:28,760
Speaker 13: Yeah, called some of his games when in the prime

1329
00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:30,800
Speaker 13: of his career. I'll tell you one of them was

1330
00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:33,680
Speaker 13: a Seattle game Richard Sherman. Of what Sherman said, you know,

1331
00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:37,480
Speaker 13: we do our production big beforehand about certain receivers, and

1332
00:58:38,520 --> 00:58:42,040
Speaker 13: even at that time was calling him a guy potential

1333
00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:43,440
Speaker 13: on his way to Hall of Fame. And then of

1334
00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:45,280
Speaker 13: course he's put up more numbers. I think this is

1335
00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:48,640
Speaker 13: what the third try for Aubrey Johnson. So yes, in

1336
00:58:48,680 --> 00:58:51,640
Speaker 13: my opinion, and I try not to be biased, but

1337
00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:55,160
Speaker 13: but I you'veiget stats, you'ven oiget numbers. I try to

1338
00:58:55,240 --> 00:58:57,120
Speaker 13: use the eye test of guys that I've seen over

1339
00:58:57,160 --> 00:58:59,640
Speaker 13: the last you know, really ten years calling games, more

1340
00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:02,640
Speaker 13: than twenty twenty five years in the business, being around

1341
00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:05,360
Speaker 13: the NFL and not so much play by play, but

1342
00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:07,960
Speaker 13: even just working sidelines and things like that. So I

1343
00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:11,120
Speaker 13: believe he is a lot of it depends, as you know,

1344
00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:12,920
Speaker 13: when you come up, and we went through this recently

1345
00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:15,880
Speaker 13: with Ronde Barber, you know, with the Buccaneers. I mean,

1346
00:59:15,880 --> 00:59:18,120
Speaker 13: I thought he should have gone in a lot sooner,

1347
00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:19,880
Speaker 13: but eventually he got it.

1348
00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:21,080
Speaker 12: It was just too much to ignore.

1349
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:24,280
Speaker 13: And I think Houston is not a smaller market, but

1350
00:59:24,320 --> 00:59:25,800
Speaker 13: it just doesn't have the rep you know.

1351
00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:27,840
Speaker 12: And I know he would be Johnson would be the.

1352
00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:31,280
Speaker 13: First Texan through Houston Texan player to go into the

1353
00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:34,280
Speaker 13: Hall of Fame, right correct on that? Oh yeah, And

1354
00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:37,040
Speaker 13: so you know and John McClean I do. I go

1355
00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:38,720
Speaker 13: way back with him and a lot of football, and

1356
00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:40,200
Speaker 13: I think he's with me on this. I mean, he

1357
00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:43,960
Speaker 13: deserves to be in there for the reasons that we've

1358
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:45,960
Speaker 13: talked about. A lot of it depends on who you're

1359
00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:49,680
Speaker 13: going in with, right how people lobby for certain players.

1360
00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:52,400
Speaker 13: But if you're you know, if you were a steeler

1361
00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:54,480
Speaker 13: or a packer, you just seem to get moved to

1362
00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:56,480
Speaker 13: the you know, to the head of the line a

1363
00:59:56,560 --> 00:59:59,520
Speaker 13: lot of times depending upon the competition of other players.

1364
00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:01,480
Speaker 13: So yes, he gets my vote. I don't have one

1365
01:00:01,560 --> 01:00:04,440
Speaker 13: right here right now, but my eye tests and those

1366
01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:07,080
Speaker 13: numbers say that he belongs all right.

1367
01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:10,080
Speaker 3: Time to do a lightning round set of weird questions

1368
01:00:10,080 --> 01:00:11,600
Speaker 3: with you, Chris Myers. I know you're a busy.

1369
01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:12,360
Speaker 12: By the way.

1370
01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:14,439
Speaker 13: That's that's the reason I wanted to come back, because

1371
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:16,080
Speaker 13: I love that. I love being I'm used to doing

1372
01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:18,040
Speaker 13: interviews and I love to get surprised when you're the

1373
01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:19,480
Speaker 13: easy you have to answer on the fly.

1374
01:00:19,600 --> 01:00:20,959
Speaker 12: I think this is really fun.

1375
01:00:21,040 --> 01:00:24,120
Speaker 3: So okay, well here we go. You're I've said this

1376
01:00:24,160 --> 01:00:26,960
Speaker 3: before when we've talked here on the Mount rushmore of

1377
01:00:27,080 --> 01:00:32,680
Speaker 3: greatest interviewers ever. So let's say you're sitting down in

1378
01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:35,840
Speaker 3: a nice comfy love seat, and sitting in a nice

1379
01:00:35,840 --> 01:00:40,120
Speaker 3: comfy love seat across from you is Charlemagne. And I'm

1380
01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:42,760
Speaker 3: not talking about the rapper. I'm talking about the Charlemagne

1381
01:00:42,840 --> 01:00:46,120
Speaker 3: Charlemagne from long ago. What's your first question out of

1382
01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:47,600
Speaker 3: the gate to Charlemagne.

1383
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:52,920
Speaker 12: Wow, that's I would Ah, I think.

1384
01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:55,120
Speaker 3: You know, you start out, you have a lot of

1385
01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:57,400
Speaker 3: critic so this is not really fair to you because

1386
01:00:57,400 --> 01:00:58,360
Speaker 3: I know you do so much.

1387
01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:00,720
Speaker 12: You know, it's a good well.

1388
01:01:00,760 --> 01:01:04,600
Speaker 13: My first question is usually I'm not specific, like if

1389
01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:06,200
Speaker 13: you say, where do you want to go in an interview?

1390
01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:09,400
Speaker 13: But usually I kind of just want to get people comfortable,

1391
01:01:09,800 --> 01:01:11,520
Speaker 13: you know, in the interviews.

1392
01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:12,680
Speaker 12: So I don't know.

1393
01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:16,600
Speaker 13: I'm I'm gonna try to gauge the mood of Charlelvaine,

1394
01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:19,240
Speaker 13: so I would wow, that's that's that is. I never

1395
01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:21,600
Speaker 13: thought I would have to premp for such an interview,

1396
01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:23,080
Speaker 13: and I when you first said it, I thought you're

1397
01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:25,240
Speaker 13: talking about the radio talk show host.

1398
01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:26,680
Speaker 1: So I don't know.

1399
01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:31,440
Speaker 13: I would probably ask something, you know, historical topical before

1400
01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:34,120
Speaker 13: I got into something personal. That's how I would That's

1401
01:01:34,160 --> 01:01:36,400
Speaker 13: probably how I would approach it. But I love that question.

1402
01:01:36,520 --> 01:01:38,760
Speaker 12: That's great. I have more time to think about that.

1403
01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:42,240
Speaker 3: Start being prepared. Chris Myers, is this is serious stuff? Okay?

1404
01:01:42,560 --> 01:01:42,800
Speaker 11: I did.

1405
01:01:43,000 --> 01:01:45,200
Speaker 3: I did a Q and A today with Christian Harris,

1406
01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:47,200
Speaker 3: linebacker for the Texans. You know a lot about them,

1407
01:01:47,400 --> 01:01:50,360
Speaker 3: the beg gaming as the Titans. The question to Christian

1408
01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:54,919
Speaker 3: was you can have any animal in the world as

1409
01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:56,600
Speaker 3: a pet. You don't have to worry about it ever

1410
01:01:56,640 --> 01:02:00,600
Speaker 3: going crazy and killing somebody or doing anything badly. What's

1411
01:02:00,640 --> 01:02:02,919
Speaker 3: the animal you would choose to have as a pet.

1412
01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:04,000
Speaker 3: You could choose any end work.

1413
01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:06,880
Speaker 13: Yep, I know he's an Alabama guy, so like the

1414
01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:09,000
Speaker 13: Crimson Tide, right, But in the mascot, I was trying

1415
01:02:09,000 --> 01:02:11,440
Speaker 13: to think of what his what his connection with, you know,

1416
01:02:11,640 --> 01:02:13,800
Speaker 13: a lion I've always had I if it's not I

1417
01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:16,040
Speaker 13: love dogs, I do you know, do the Dog Show

1418
01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:19,000
Speaker 13: and I grew up with dogs around me my family.

1419
01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:21,600
Speaker 13: So but the lion is like the King of the

1420
01:02:21,680 --> 01:02:24,200
Speaker 13: jungle that there's a there's a kind of a style

1421
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:26,320
Speaker 13: and a mane, and a good babysitter, and plus you

1422
01:02:26,360 --> 01:02:29,120
Speaker 13: could sit there like if it was a statue. But

1423
01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:32,000
Speaker 13: I would say that's the first thing that comes to mind.

1424
01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:34,400
Speaker 13: That's actually a really cool question. But yes, I always

1425
01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:36,120
Speaker 13: thought about, you know, what it would be like. I mean,

1426
01:02:36,160 --> 01:02:37,800
Speaker 13: you know, there's a lot of other different ways you

1427
01:02:37,840 --> 01:02:40,560
Speaker 13: can go, but I'm going with the main and the

1428
01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:41,960
Speaker 13: look and just the roar.

1429
01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:42,360
Speaker 3: You know.

1430
01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:44,000
Speaker 13: I so love when they show the old movies and

1431
01:02:44,040 --> 01:02:46,640
Speaker 13: they show the MGM and it's the lion roar. That

1432
01:02:46,640 --> 01:02:48,360
Speaker 13: would be nice, a nice alarm. So I'll go with

1433
01:02:48,400 --> 01:02:48,760
Speaker 13: the lion.

1434
01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:50,800
Speaker 3: The Lion's a good one, and that's been the most

1435
01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:54,480
Speaker 3: common one when I do these interviews players. So when

1436
01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:56,400
Speaker 3: I said that, I said, hey, that's most common. Christian

1437
01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:58,000
Speaker 3: here said, well then I don't want I'm gonna go

1438
01:02:58,040 --> 01:02:59,280
Speaker 3: with the Komodo dragon instead.

1439
01:02:59,800 --> 01:03:02,040
Speaker 13: Yeah, something write something different, you know what. I'm a

1440
01:03:02,040 --> 01:03:04,080
Speaker 13: big water So that's that's cool that you said that,

1441
01:03:04,720 --> 01:03:07,600
Speaker 13: since I grew up around water and still love water.

1442
01:03:07,680 --> 01:03:10,280
Speaker 13: If I if I did have that, I probably would

1443
01:03:10,360 --> 01:03:12,800
Speaker 13: have not because of the team. A dolphin or a

1444
01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:16,400
Speaker 13: porpoise island fascinated by them, and they're going over their communications,

1445
01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:18,680
Speaker 13: so that would be that's more a mammal than a

1446
01:03:18,720 --> 01:03:20,960
Speaker 13: but but yeah, now I feel like a part of

1447
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:21,280
Speaker 13: the group.

1448
01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:23,720
Speaker 12: But I'm glad the lion is leading in the votes.

1449
01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:26,040
Speaker 3: All Right, that's a great one. Dolphins a fantastic one.

1450
01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:28,360
Speaker 3: You could get a big aquarium, pool.

1451
01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:32,000
Speaker 13: Size Olympic, go swimming with it, get a saltwater pool

1452
01:03:32,040 --> 01:03:32,360
Speaker 13: or whatever.

1453
01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:36,400
Speaker 3: Absolutely, that's a good choice. I like that. Okay, this

1454
01:03:36,520 --> 01:03:40,840
Speaker 3: is another one that came up today. You can be

1455
01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:44,440
Speaker 3: the fastest man or woman in the world as far

1456
01:03:44,440 --> 01:03:50,240
Speaker 3: as running, but you have offensive bad breath, you have

1457
01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:55,000
Speaker 3: that choice, or you can fly but you don't have

1458
01:03:55,080 --> 01:03:58,320
Speaker 3: the sense of both smell and taste. Which of those

1459
01:03:58,400 --> 01:03:59,560
Speaker 3: options would you choose?

1460
01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:03,760
Speaker 13: Wow, Well, I would love to fly because traveler so,

1461
01:04:03,960 --> 01:04:06,520
Speaker 13: but I think I couldn't lose the other parts of that.

1462
01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:10,400
Speaker 13: I would take this speed and the bad breath. You know,

1463
01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:13,800
Speaker 13: I'm assuming you can't do something to correct that bad breath.

1464
01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:16,400
Speaker 13: So I would warn people wear a mask like maybe

1465
01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:18,840
Speaker 13: we all did on the pandemic. If I was around people,

1466
01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:21,360
Speaker 13: I look the other way, read the other way.

1467
01:04:21,400 --> 01:04:22,160
Speaker 1: But being that.

1468
01:04:22,240 --> 01:04:24,080
Speaker 12: Fast, I don't know what I would do with it

1469
01:04:24,120 --> 01:04:26,360
Speaker 12: at this stage of my life, in my career. But

1470
01:04:26,360 --> 01:04:27,480
Speaker 12: at least, you know, win.

1471
01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:30,040
Speaker 3: The Olympics, Chris, you'd go win the Olympics. You'd save lives,

1472
01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:30,400
Speaker 3: that's what you.

1473
01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:32,800
Speaker 13: There, you go, I'll do that. I'll represent our country

1474
01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:34,800
Speaker 13: in the Olympics. I'd be proud of that. If the

1475
01:04:34,840 --> 01:04:35,520
Speaker 13: breath holds up.

1476
01:04:36,160 --> 01:04:36,480
Speaker 1: All right.

1477
01:04:36,520 --> 01:04:38,560
Speaker 3: One more for Chris Myers. You brought up the dog shows.

1478
01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:41,480
Speaker 3: We talked off camera just a moment ago about your pets.

1479
01:04:41,960 --> 01:04:44,160
Speaker 3: So do you have dogs? What are there what's the

1480
01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:44,760
Speaker 3: deal with them?

1481
01:04:44,760 --> 01:04:46,080
Speaker 12: What do you got right?

1482
01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:48,680
Speaker 13: Well, we used to have a Jack Russell at Chihuahua

1483
01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:50,880
Speaker 13: and I retrieve her and through the years with my

1484
01:04:50,960 --> 01:04:52,720
Speaker 13: kids and all, a few of them have passed away.

1485
01:04:52,800 --> 01:04:55,440
Speaker 13: So we do have kind of a retriever mix. It

1486
01:04:55,520 --> 01:04:57,400
Speaker 13: was a rescue dog. My family does a lot with

1487
01:04:57,720 --> 01:05:00,400
Speaker 13: rescuing dogs and then I'll bring too many heal actually,

1488
01:05:00,440 --> 01:05:03,400
Speaker 13: but then they'll connect them with this with families that

1489
01:05:03,480 --> 01:05:05,520
Speaker 13: show that they want to raise a dog or or

1490
01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:07,520
Speaker 13: abused dogs that are realed in so.

1491
01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:08,440
Speaker 12: They stay active in that.

1492
01:05:08,520 --> 01:05:10,560
Speaker 13: But I yeah, and growing up it was we mostly

1493
01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:13,360
Speaker 13: had just kind of mixes, but because we couldn't afford

1494
01:05:13,400 --> 01:05:15,520
Speaker 13: a whole lot. But but they were still uh, they

1495
01:05:15,520 --> 01:05:16,720
Speaker 13: were still great pets.

1496
01:05:17,240 --> 01:05:19,120
Speaker 3: So you okay, so you have how many dogs now

1497
01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:19,640
Speaker 3: in your house?

1498
01:05:19,720 --> 01:05:22,600
Speaker 13: So one one now? Yes, one other retriever. It's really

1499
01:05:22,680 --> 01:05:24,520
Speaker 13: kind of a retriever mixed a little beagle in.

1500
01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:25,040
Speaker 12: There as well.

1501
01:05:25,320 --> 01:05:26,600
Speaker 3: Gotcha a smart dog?

1502
01:05:26,640 --> 01:05:28,080
Speaker 11: What mixed dogs?

1503
01:05:28,080 --> 01:05:28,240
Speaker 12: Really?

1504
01:05:28,280 --> 01:05:29,800
Speaker 3: Smartest dogs, aren't they? Yeah?

1505
01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:30,600
Speaker 12: They're yeah.

1506
01:05:30,640 --> 01:05:33,240
Speaker 13: I mean they're a blast and they if I think

1507
01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:36,640
Speaker 13: most dogs will warm up to it become smarter depending

1508
01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:39,160
Speaker 13: upon how they're raised and what the what the environment

1509
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:41,640
Speaker 13: is like around them. But as much as I love dogs,

1510
01:05:41,640 --> 01:05:44,000
Speaker 13: I was never like, you know, a show dog family

1511
01:05:44,120 --> 01:05:45,800
Speaker 13: or that type of thing. I mean, sure, you know

1512
01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:48,120
Speaker 13: he's just getting them as a pet and making them

1513
01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:48,880
Speaker 13: part of the family.

1514
01:05:49,200 --> 01:05:51,720
Speaker 3: The show dog aspect of things is something I will

1515
01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:53,720
Speaker 3: It's a line of questioning I'm going to pursue with

1516
01:05:53,760 --> 01:05:55,520
Speaker 3: you the next time we get to do this, because

1517
01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:58,520
Speaker 3: that's in and of itself, I'm sure, a long, long

1518
01:05:58,560 --> 01:06:00,840
Speaker 3: topic to discuss, because like you may, you're the voice

1519
01:06:00,880 --> 01:06:02,800
Speaker 3: of the dog shows and stuff.

1520
01:06:02,960 --> 01:06:05,160
Speaker 13: Yeah, the West West Bester Kettle Club Dog Show, which

1521
01:06:05,160 --> 01:06:07,960
Speaker 13: will again be I think it's in May this year

1522
01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:10,800
Speaker 13: again at the Billy Jean King Tennis Center there in

1523
01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:13,640
Speaker 13: New York. You try to get back to Madison Square Garden.

1524
01:06:13,680 --> 01:06:15,840
Speaker 13: But yeah, I'm fascinated every year I go, not only

1525
01:06:15,880 --> 01:06:18,320
Speaker 13: the studying the types. You know, over three hundred plus breeds,

1526
01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:22,440
Speaker 13: and you know how just they are hampered because they

1527
01:06:22,480 --> 01:06:24,720
Speaker 13: know they're the stars of the show. It's yeah, it's

1528
01:06:24,760 --> 01:06:26,840
Speaker 13: all I like dealing with, you know, star athletes. It's

1529
01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:28,800
Speaker 13: just a little bit different that is.

1530
01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:31,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, Wow, we got a lot to discuss next time. Well, Chris,

1531
01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:34,200
Speaker 3: it's wonderful talking with you. Thank you so much for

1532
01:06:34,240 --> 01:06:36,840
Speaker 3: the time. We look forward to the call on Fox

1533
01:06:36,920 --> 01:06:39,640
Speaker 3: the Sunday Texans and Titans. You're with Robert Smith. It's

1534
01:06:39,640 --> 01:06:41,800
Speaker 3: going to be a big one. Houston really needs this

1535
01:06:41,920 --> 01:06:44,680
Speaker 3: win and we hope you have a happy new year.

1536
01:06:45,320 --> 01:06:47,160
Speaker 12: Yeah, no, thank you and look forward to it. I'm

1537
01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:48,160
Speaker 12: sure the crowd will be jumping.

1538
01:06:48,280 --> 01:06:50,800
Speaker 13: I know that coach Ryan's had talked about that in Houston,

1539
01:06:50,840 --> 01:06:52,960
Speaker 13: and I always enjoyed talking to you. Have a good

1540
01:06:52,960 --> 01:06:54,600
Speaker 13: new New Year all your listeners, and I'm going to

1541
01:06:54,600 --> 01:06:56,760
Speaker 13: I'm gonna do a little homework on the Charlottetesla. I

1542
01:06:56,760 --> 01:06:58,600
Speaker 13: have something better for you next time because I'm a

1543
01:06:58,600 --> 01:07:00,840
Speaker 13: big guy in preparation. But that's okay, that's what I

1544
01:07:00,920 --> 01:07:01,960
Speaker 13: like about your questions.

1545
01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:03,000
Speaker 7: So there we go.

1546
01:07:03,480 --> 01:07:06,280
Speaker 3: I'll see it practice hopefully on Friday. Take care, Chris.

1547
01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:07,160
Speaker 12: Okay's here this weekend.

1548
01:07:07,160 --> 01:07:09,600
Speaker 2: I always love hearing the voices that call the action

1549
01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:11,160
Speaker 2: on radio TV.

1550
01:07:12,320 --> 01:07:12,680
Speaker 1: Love it.

1551
01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:15,440
Speaker 2: Obviously, you are going to be listening to our broadcast

1552
01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:17,920
Speaker 2: with Mark Vandermir, Andre Ware and myself.

1553
01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:19,160
Speaker 1: Kick off is at noon.

1554
01:07:19,200 --> 01:07:21,040
Speaker 2: We'll get into a little bit more of that a

1555
01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:24,080
Speaker 2: little bit later, and when I mean later, I mean

1556
01:07:24,200 --> 01:07:26,080
Speaker 2: next segment, because we got to pick all these games,

1557
01:07:26,320 --> 01:07:28,120
Speaker 2: and we got to give you the Texans injury report

1558
01:07:28,160 --> 01:07:31,200
Speaker 2: and everything going on throughout the league. So we're picking

1559
01:07:31,240 --> 01:07:33,439
Speaker 2: games and look at the injury report next right here

1560
01:07:33,560 --> 01:07:35,080
Speaker 2: on Texans All Access.

1561
01:07:35,520 --> 01:07:38,120
Speaker 1: All right, here we go my favorite segment of the week.

1562
01:07:38,120 --> 01:07:40,920
Speaker 2: It's time to pick all these games that are happening

1563
01:07:41,040 --> 01:07:44,479
Speaker 2: this weekend. Already had one on Thursday night, I would

1564
01:07:44,480 --> 01:07:46,640
Speaker 2: have got that one. Would have definitely got that one.

1565
01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:49,240
Speaker 2: So let's pick them. Welcome back to the show. By

1566
01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:51,520
Speaker 2: the way, I'm John Harris Foot playing on a sideline reporter,

1567
01:07:51,680 --> 01:07:53,439
Speaker 2: and we got to hit all these games, and there's

1568
01:07:53,480 --> 01:07:56,960
Speaker 2: a full slate. One already played. The Browns are taking

1569
01:07:57,000 --> 01:07:59,400
Speaker 2: on a pronouncier on. The Jets dominated the game Joe

1570
01:07:59,400 --> 01:08:03,000
Speaker 2: Flacco through three hundred basically before half. It was a whitewash.

1571
01:08:03,160 --> 01:08:08,440
Speaker 2: Now the games start on Saturday night, so get my

1572
01:08:08,600 --> 01:08:12,440
Speaker 2: music going and let's talk Lions.

1573
01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:14,520
Speaker 1: The Cowboys down in Dallas.

1574
01:08:14,600 --> 01:08:16,120
Speaker 2: Dallas is the favor about five and a half against

1575
01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:20,560
Speaker 2: NFC North champs. I'm giving this win to the Dallas Cowboys.

1576
01:08:20,800 --> 01:08:23,000
Speaker 2: They love to play at home. They'll cover the five

1577
01:08:23,040 --> 01:08:24,920
Speaker 2: and a half. Lions are gonna put it on a

1578
01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:27,759
Speaker 2: cruise control just yet because they got a shot still

1579
01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:30,120
Speaker 2: to be the number one seed. But I just think

1580
01:08:30,120 --> 01:08:32,559
Speaker 2: on the road, after that big emotional win last week

1581
01:08:32,600 --> 01:08:35,559
Speaker 2: on the road, the Cowboys will get this one at

1582
01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:39,160
Speaker 2: home as the Lions struggle in that one. Cowboys win

1583
01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:40,680
Speaker 2: and cover the five and a half. Here we go

1584
01:08:40,760 --> 01:08:44,160
Speaker 2: Dolphins Ravens. And said earlier, no Jalen Waddle for the Dolphins,

1585
01:08:44,240 --> 01:08:47,400
Speaker 2: keeping on Zay Flowers and Kyle Hamilton both questionable for

1586
01:08:47,479 --> 01:08:50,439
Speaker 2: the Ravens. Ravens come back home to play a new

1587
01:08:50,600 --> 01:08:55,040
Speaker 2: game after a Monday night Christmas Night game. Dolphins got

1588
01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:57,760
Speaker 2: that one against the Cowboys last week in emotional game,

1589
01:08:57,800 --> 01:09:00,040
Speaker 2: but like I said, they'll be without Jalen Wattle. The

1590
01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:01,960
Speaker 2: Baltimore Ravens are fair about three and a half. The

1591
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:05,160
Speaker 2: Baltimore Ravens will win. I don't know if I love

1592
01:09:05,240 --> 01:09:08,120
Speaker 2: as demarkt I talked about earlier, and they'll cover the

1593
01:09:08,160 --> 01:09:12,639
Speaker 2: three and a half. Ravens will be AFC number one seed.

1594
01:09:12,680 --> 01:09:16,120
Speaker 2: The playoffs will go through Baltimore yet again. The Patriots

1595
01:09:16,120 --> 01:09:18,960
Speaker 2: are taking on the Bills in Orchard Park. Bills favored

1596
01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:22,280
Speaker 2: by fourteen. It's a bit much. The Patriots will always

1597
01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:25,200
Speaker 2: give them issues. So I'm gonna go the Buffalo win here,

1598
01:09:25,840 --> 01:09:28,320
Speaker 2: but a Patriot cover. They'll win by ten. It'll be

1599
01:09:28,360 --> 01:09:32,120
Speaker 2: twenty one ten, something like that, twenty four to fourteen,

1600
01:09:32,920 --> 01:09:36,400
Speaker 2: but the Patriots will get inside that fourteen point number.

1601
01:09:36,439 --> 01:09:37,799
Speaker 1: Falcons are growing to the Bears.

1602
01:09:37,840 --> 01:09:39,639
Speaker 2: Neither one of these teams are gonna go to the playoffs,

1603
01:09:39,720 --> 01:09:43,680
Speaker 2: presumably as long as Tampa Bay runs the table. But

1604
01:09:43,720 --> 01:09:46,200
Speaker 2: I like the Falcons in this one against the Bears.

1605
01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:48,519
Speaker 2: Bears playing a little bit better. You gotta win last week,

1606
01:09:48,640 --> 01:09:51,360
Speaker 2: I guess Arizona. The Falcons are better than Arizona and

1607
01:09:51,439 --> 01:09:54,400
Speaker 2: Tyler Heinike is starting for the Falcons.

1608
01:09:54,479 --> 01:09:55,800
Speaker 1: Bears are favorite by two and a half.

1609
01:09:56,040 --> 01:09:58,160
Speaker 2: I like the Falcons to win that and obviously cover

1610
01:09:58,840 --> 01:10:01,559
Speaker 2: good on the for getting to eight and eight if

1611
01:10:01,560 --> 01:10:04,080
Speaker 2: they can do it. Don't keep their hopes alive if

1612
01:10:04,200 --> 01:10:05,280
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay loses.

1613
01:10:05,479 --> 01:10:06,639
Speaker 1: But we'll get to that in a little bit.

1614
01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:10,360
Speaker 2: Big one in Indy, Big one, and I think Mark

1615
01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:13,679
Speaker 2: and I came around to the fact that either way,

1616
01:10:13,880 --> 01:10:15,479
Speaker 2: it's not a bad thing.

1617
01:10:16,240 --> 01:10:19,320
Speaker 1: Either way, it's not a good thing because if.

1618
01:10:19,240 --> 01:10:22,360
Speaker 2: The Raiders beat the Colts, the Raiders are definitely in

1619
01:10:22,400 --> 01:10:25,080
Speaker 2: the wild card mix. If the Colts beat the Raiders,

1620
01:10:25,080 --> 01:10:27,719
Speaker 2: the Raiders are out and the Cults are still alive

1621
01:10:28,040 --> 01:10:31,280
Speaker 2: to win the division and set up Week eighteen against

1622
01:10:31,320 --> 01:10:33,200
Speaker 2: the Texans. So any favor about three and a half,

1623
01:10:34,200 --> 01:10:35,519
Speaker 2: I think the Cults are gonna get this, but it's

1624
01:10:35,520 --> 01:10:36,000
Speaker 2: gonna be close.

1625
01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:36,479
Speaker 1: It's gonna be.

1626
01:10:36,439 --> 01:10:38,679
Speaker 2: Inside that three and a half. This has got twenty

1627
01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:40,720
Speaker 2: seven to twenty four written all over it. Colts will

1628
01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:43,320
Speaker 2: kick a field goal late, get a little revenge from

1629
01:10:43,360 --> 01:10:46,200
Speaker 2: a couple of years ago when Carson Wentz played in

1630
01:10:46,240 --> 01:10:48,599
Speaker 2: that game against the Raiders and the Raiders won that one.

1631
01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:49,760
Speaker 1: The Colts will win this one.

1632
01:10:49,800 --> 01:10:52,759
Speaker 2: The Colts will set up that Week eighteen matchup because,

1633
01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:53,840
Speaker 2: like I said earlier, the.

1634
01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:55,400
Speaker 1: Texans are gonna beat the Titans.

1635
01:10:55,439 --> 01:10:57,479
Speaker 2: At least hope they beat the Titans and set up

1636
01:10:57,520 --> 01:11:00,759
Speaker 2: a big matchup with the Colts on Sunday, Week eighteen.

1637
01:11:00,840 --> 01:11:04,880
Speaker 2: So Raiders will lose. They will stay strong, but lose,

1638
01:11:05,439 --> 01:11:07,160
Speaker 2: and Toineo Peerce is gonna keep that job though he's

1639
01:11:07,160 --> 01:11:09,960
Speaker 2: done a great job. Panthers Jaguars, no Trevor Lawrence. The

1640
01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:13,000
Speaker 2: line has fallen into four CJ. Beth at Home got

1641
01:11:13,040 --> 01:11:15,200
Speaker 2: this one was in Carolina. With the way Bryce Young

1642
01:11:15,240 --> 01:11:16,879
Speaker 2: played last week, I would pick the Panthers.

1643
01:11:16,880 --> 01:11:19,360
Speaker 1: Can't do it. Jaguars are gonna win this. Panthers will

1644
01:11:19,439 --> 01:11:21,519
Speaker 1: keep it close. We'll keep you within four. It's gonna

1645
01:11:21,560 --> 01:11:21,920
Speaker 1: be tight.

1646
01:11:22,120 --> 01:11:26,360
Speaker 2: Fourteen twelve, seventeen fifteen, something like that. Seventeen to fourteen.

1647
01:11:26,560 --> 01:11:29,960
Speaker 2: Jags win, Panthers cover. Rams taking on the Giants to

1648
01:11:30,040 --> 01:11:32,759
Speaker 2: the NFC. Rams are favorite by five and a half

1649
01:11:32,800 --> 01:11:35,519
Speaker 2: on the road in the negative bodyclock game doesn't matter.

1650
01:11:35,680 --> 01:11:36,479
Speaker 1: Rams are playing well.

1651
01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:38,120
Speaker 2: They'll get the nine and seven and they'll cover that

1652
01:11:38,160 --> 01:11:40,919
Speaker 2: five and a half against Gerrod Taylor Cardinals.

1653
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:41,439
Speaker 1: Eagles.

1654
01:11:41,439 --> 01:11:44,920
Speaker 2: Eagles will whitewash the Cardinals. The spread is twelve Cardinals.

1655
01:11:45,360 --> 01:11:45,800
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.

1656
01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:48,080
Speaker 2: The Eagles will win and cover that at home and

1657
01:11:48,120 --> 01:11:50,120
Speaker 2: start to feel better going into the playoffs.

1658
01:11:50,200 --> 01:11:52,519
Speaker 1: The Bucks have a chance to win a division against

1659
01:11:52,560 --> 01:11:54,000
Speaker 1: her hated rival. Man.

1660
01:11:54,040 --> 01:11:55,639
Speaker 2: It doesn't get much better than that, because that could

1661
01:11:55,640 --> 01:11:57,880
Speaker 2: be Week eighteen for US Bucks. Eight and seven or

1662
01:11:57,880 --> 01:11:59,840
Speaker 2: two nap point favorites. They're gonna beat the Saints at

1663
01:11:59,840 --> 01:12:02,880
Speaker 2: home and win the NFC South. Baker Mayfield is gonna

1664
01:12:02,880 --> 01:12:05,759
Speaker 2: be the comeback player of the Year not named Damar Hamlin.

1665
01:12:05,960 --> 01:12:09,440
Speaker 2: Forty nine Ers are gonna hammer the Commanders in Washington.

1666
01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:11,639
Speaker 2: They'll beat them by more than thirteen and a half.

1667
01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:13,439
Speaker 2: The Commanders are ready for the season to be done. Actually,

1668
01:12:13,439 --> 01:12:15,719
Speaker 2: they take it back. I take it back, sorry. Niners

1669
01:12:15,720 --> 01:12:18,920
Speaker 2: will win. Jakobe Brizette will keep it closer than a

1670
01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:20,840
Speaker 2: thirteen and a half points spread. So forty nine Ers

1671
01:12:20,880 --> 01:12:23,559
Speaker 2: win Commanders to cover. Steelers are gonna lose out Seattle.

1672
01:12:23,560 --> 01:12:25,599
Speaker 2: Seattle's gonna cover that three and a half as well.

1673
01:12:25,800 --> 01:12:28,200
Speaker 2: Bengals will lose to the Chiefs. The Chiefs will get

1674
01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:29,840
Speaker 2: it right and cover the six and a half twenty

1675
01:12:29,840 --> 01:12:34,400
Speaker 2: eight to twenty one. The Broncos will narrowly lose to

1676
01:12:34,439 --> 01:12:36,280
Speaker 2: the Charger. The Charger are gonna pull the upset in

1677
01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:40,000
Speaker 2: Denver against Jared Stidham and Sunday Night Packers Vikings Vikings

1678
01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:40,559
Speaker 2: fair by one.

1679
01:12:40,640 --> 01:12:41,679
Speaker 1: Jared Hall is gonna start.

1680
01:12:41,760 --> 01:12:43,720
Speaker 2: Look, the Packers are gonna go get win number eight

1681
01:12:44,080 --> 01:12:46,960
Speaker 2: of the year, and I need that to happen, all right,

Speaker 2: Is gonna be a blast against the Titans, a team

1692
01:13:12,760 --> 01:13:17,400
Speaker 2: we have not beat in NRG Stadium since twenty eighteen.

1693
01:13:17,720 --> 01:13:20,200
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness. Now a guy that's gonna play a

1775
01:16:23,520 --> 01:16:26,800
Speaker 10: sometimes you gotta rely on motivation, I mean discipline and

1776
01:16:26,880 --> 01:16:29,600
Speaker 10: not motivation. So I switched it up sometimes, but I

1782
01:16:39,760 --> 01:16:41,600

Speaker 10: have a cuple like a handful of EM and m's,

01:19:09,240 --> 01:19:10,439
Speaker 2: I get to the end of the year, I want

1849
01:19:10,479 --> 01:19:12,360
Speaker 2: to make sure I do kind of a retrospective. And

1850
01:19:12,400 --> 01:19:15,960
Speaker 2: so I've decided that with two shows left to go,

1851
01:19:16,560 --> 01:19:19,800
Speaker 2: guaranteed shows because we get in the playoffs, we're still

1852
01:19:19,800 --> 01:19:20,639
Speaker 2: doing Texas Matchup.

1853
01:19:20,680 --> 01:19:22,200
Speaker 1: We'll just obviously be focusing on.

1854
01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:24,920
Speaker 2: Playoff wins because that's the only way that we'll have

1855
01:19:24,960 --> 01:19:27,280
Speaker 2: a show on Matchup after this.

1856
01:19:27,840 --> 01:19:29,000
Speaker 1: So I decided, all right.

1857
01:19:28,880 --> 01:19:32,800
Speaker 2: This week, I'm gonna do the ultimate eleven offensive plays.

1858
01:19:32,360 --> 01:19:34,880
Speaker 1: Of the year. I just felt like this was awesome

1859
01:19:34,920 --> 01:19:35,120
Speaker 1: to do.

1860
01:19:35,160 --> 01:19:37,360
Speaker 2: On a Friday night, You're sitting cold in front of

1861
01:19:37,360 --> 01:19:40,559
Speaker 2: the fireplace and you're listening like, oh man, I remember this. Well,

1862
01:19:40,600 --> 01:19:43,080
Speaker 2: there might be many more of the next couple of weeks.

1863
01:19:43,560 --> 01:19:45,320
Speaker 2: But up till now, I figured, let's get a little

1864
01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:48,680
Speaker 2: retrospective of the offensive output from this year with the

1865
01:19:48,720 --> 01:19:50,240
Speaker 2: Ultimate eleven offensive plays of the year.

1866
01:19:50,320 --> 01:19:50,640
Speaker 1: Let's go.

1867
01:19:51,120 --> 01:19:54,519
Speaker 2: Let's kick off our ultimate eleven offensive plays of the

1868
01:19:54,600 --> 01:19:57,880
Speaker 2: year right here. Now, we still have two more games

1869
01:19:57,880 --> 01:20:00,679
Speaker 2: to go. These could all get bumped. But because we've

1870
01:20:00,680 --> 01:20:03,160
Speaker 2: only got these two shows, figure tho's to offense today.

1871
01:20:03,400 --> 01:20:05,760
Speaker 2: Let's do defense next week, and let's see what we

1872
01:20:05,840 --> 01:20:08,480
Speaker 2: do going into the playoffs. If we get to the playoffs,

1873
01:20:08,680 --> 01:20:12,160
Speaker 2: we'll have a long matchup of that win over the Colts,

1874
01:20:12,160 --> 01:20:13,600
Speaker 2: because you're gonna have to have a win over the

1875
01:20:13,600 --> 01:20:15,400
Speaker 2: Coats to get into the playoffs. So we'll do that

1876
01:20:15,479 --> 01:20:16,960
Speaker 2: and think about that down the road. So let's do

1877
01:20:17,000 --> 01:20:20,280
Speaker 2: our ultimate eleven offensive plays of the year. And we're

1878
01:20:20,280 --> 01:20:25,519
Speaker 2: gonna start Week four against the Pittsburgh Steelers. What an

1879
01:20:25,560 --> 01:20:28,479
Speaker 2: afternoon that was. The Texas jumped out big boom boom,

1880
01:20:28,520 --> 01:20:32,920
Speaker 2: got up early, and then kind of had the Steelers

1881
01:20:33,640 --> 01:20:35,160
Speaker 2: kind of at bay the rest of the day. The

1882
01:20:35,200 --> 01:20:37,320
Speaker 2: Steelers had kicked a couple of field goals and may

1883
01:20:37,360 --> 01:20:40,559
Speaker 2: it sixteen to six, and then motor well, I don't

1884
01:20:40,560 --> 01:20:42,000
Speaker 2: want to give that one away because that might be

1885
01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:45,280
Speaker 2: in here too. Motor threw a touchdown to Dalton Schultz

1886
01:20:45,320 --> 01:20:48,160
Speaker 2: that put them up twenty three to six, but the

1887
01:20:48,200 --> 01:20:51,240
Speaker 2: Texans got the ball back twenty three to six, faced

1888
01:20:51,240 --> 01:20:54,000
Speaker 2: a third down, and when you're up twenty three to

1889
01:20:54,040 --> 01:20:57,040
Speaker 2: six and you got CJ. Stroud, well you don't have

1890
01:20:57,080 --> 01:20:59,719
Speaker 2: to throw a third short. You can throw the ball

1891
01:20:59,720 --> 01:21:02,920
Speaker 2: deep to Nico Collins. And that's exactly what happened right here.

1892
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:07,360
Speaker 2: At play number eleven, CJ finds Nico fifty two yards

1893
01:21:07,400 --> 01:21:10,280
Speaker 2: to put the kapper on the Steelers thirty to six.

1894
01:21:10,320 --> 01:21:11,680
Speaker 1: It's at number eleven.

1895
01:21:11,880 --> 01:21:14,960
Speaker 4: Third and seven from the Texans forty eight. Stroud shotgun

1896
01:21:15,040 --> 01:21:17,080
Speaker 4: Motor in the backfield with him. CJ gets to snap,

1897
01:21:17,160 --> 01:21:20,320
Speaker 4: CJ throwing downfield and caught by Nico twenty five to twenty.

1898
01:21:20,439 --> 01:21:24,440
Speaker 4: Blake to tackle fifteen ten five rock and roll touchdown

1899
01:21:24,760 --> 01:21:33,120
Speaker 4: usten CJ. Stroud with more third down magic to the

1900
01:21:33,240 --> 01:21:33,799
Speaker 4: end zone.

1901
01:21:34,880 --> 01:21:36,920
Speaker 2: Now, when I put this all through to eleven, sometimes

1902
01:21:36,960 --> 01:21:39,240
Speaker 2: I kind of slot things first and then I go

1903
01:21:39,320 --> 01:21:41,479
Speaker 2: back and I reslot. Well, I didn't realize I had

1904
01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:44,360
Speaker 2: done this, but at number ten is exactly what I

1905
01:21:44,520 --> 01:21:48,880
Speaker 2: just mentioned sixteen to six against the Steelers. Texans looking

1906
01:21:48,920 --> 01:21:50,719
Speaker 2: for a little bit of spark to get back going.

1907
01:21:50,720 --> 01:21:52,479
Speaker 2: You know, the terrible Towels got going in that game

1908
01:21:52,520 --> 01:21:54,639
Speaker 2: a little bit when it was sixteen to six, thought

1909
01:21:54,640 --> 01:21:55,040
Speaker 2: they had.

1910
01:21:54,920 --> 01:21:58,160
Speaker 1: A shot, but then no, not CJ.

1911
01:21:58,280 --> 01:22:02,840
Speaker 2: Stroud Devin's singletary before Devin really had taken over as

1912
01:22:02,880 --> 01:22:05,800
Speaker 2: a number one running back came into the game and

1913
01:22:05,840 --> 01:22:08,720
Speaker 2: it was time for a little razzle dazzle as Mark

1914
01:22:08,800 --> 01:22:11,720
Speaker 2: vandermir put it as he found Dalton Schultz for a

1915
01:22:11,760 --> 01:22:13,960
Speaker 2: touchdown put them up twenty three six against the Steelers.

1916
01:22:14,000 --> 01:22:16,240
Speaker 4: It's at number ten, second to goal at the six

1917
01:22:16,320 --> 01:22:19,560
Speaker 4: scrout under center pitches the ball, the singletary throws to

1918
01:22:19,600 --> 01:22:24,519
Speaker 4: the endsode razzle dazzle cut for a touchdown Dlton Schultz.

1919
01:22:25,120 --> 01:22:26,280
Speaker 11: The texaid score.

1920
01:22:29,479 --> 01:22:31,960
Speaker 2: Then they would hit the Nico touchdown, then they would

1921
01:22:31,960 --> 01:22:32,760
Speaker 2: beat the Steelers.

1922
01:22:32,880 --> 01:22:35,639
Speaker 1: That put the Texans at two and two.

1923
01:22:35,920 --> 01:22:38,519
Speaker 2: Now they were zero in two when they went to

1924
01:22:38,600 --> 01:22:41,600
Speaker 2: Duval County to take on the one to one Jacksonville

1925
01:22:41,640 --> 01:22:45,599
Speaker 2: Jaguars in Week three. In the talk that week against

1926
01:22:45,640 --> 01:22:48,320
Speaker 2: the Jaguars for the Jaguars was, hey, you got a

1927
01:22:48,360 --> 01:22:51,759
Speaker 2: two week trip up coming to London. What about London?

1928
01:22:52,200 --> 01:22:54,800
Speaker 2: How about going over to London. Hey, you got these

1929
01:22:54,840 --> 01:22:59,360
Speaker 2: two games in London. Everything was about London. Nothing was

1930
01:22:59,400 --> 01:23:04,080
Speaker 2: about the Texans. And I thought that was interesting. So, okay,

1931
01:23:04,479 --> 01:23:06,439
Speaker 2: maybe they're not ready for what we can do.

1932
01:23:06,520 --> 01:23:06,640
Speaker 12: Well.

1933
01:23:06,680 --> 01:23:09,920
Speaker 2: The offense had started getting rolling against the Colts, but

1934
01:23:09,960 --> 01:23:15,280
Speaker 2: it really got rolling against the Jacksonville Jaguarars. I thought

1935
01:23:15,320 --> 01:23:17,519
Speaker 2: we might be in some trouble early first three and out.

1936
01:23:17,640 --> 01:23:20,880
Speaker 2: Oh boy, not good. Holy col Jays got the ball,

1937
01:23:20,920 --> 01:23:22,519
Speaker 2: they drive a little bit, but now they got to

1938
01:23:22,600 --> 01:23:23,280
Speaker 2: kick a field goal.

1939
01:23:23,600 --> 01:23:26,240
Speaker 1: Brandon McManus pushes it wide. Right now.

1940
01:23:26,280 --> 01:23:29,280
Speaker 2: The Texans have got great field position and they were

1941
01:23:29,320 --> 01:23:32,400
Speaker 2: about to unleash a can of you know what on

1942
01:23:32,439 --> 01:23:37,439
Speaker 2: the Jags right here, going deep at number nine, CJ

1943
01:23:37,600 --> 01:23:39,720
Speaker 2: found Tank. This put the ball down at the one

1944
01:23:39,800 --> 01:23:43,760
Speaker 2: yard line and signaled what the Texans offense was going

1945
01:23:43,800 --> 01:23:46,320
Speaker 2: to be this year. CJ to Tank at number nine

1946
01:23:46,360 --> 01:23:48,680
Speaker 2: for forty six yards to the one.

1947
01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:51,639
Speaker 4: Second down and seven from the forty eight of the Jags.

1948
01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:55,320
Speaker 4: Stroud fakes to give now guns long downfield and he

1949
01:23:55,400 --> 01:23:58,200
Speaker 4: wants tag Dell and Dell has that catch inside the

1950
01:23:58,280 --> 01:23:59,160
Speaker 4: one yard line.

1951
01:23:59,200 --> 01:24:02,200
Speaker 11: Stop there, big play to tech down.

1952
01:24:02,600 --> 01:24:06,599
Speaker 2: Now, the Texans offense has been fairly spectacular all year long.

1953
01:24:06,640 --> 01:24:08,640
Speaker 1: There have been some moments of not so greatness.

1954
01:24:09,640 --> 01:24:12,519
Speaker 2: But I found one, or wanted to put one that

1955
01:24:12,680 --> 01:24:15,639
Speaker 2: came into losing effort, and he came in Week five

1956
01:24:15,920 --> 01:24:20,479
Speaker 2: at Atlanta. Late in the game, CJ. Stroud put together

1957
01:24:20,560 --> 01:24:25,040
Speaker 2: a drive just after the two minute warning. Dalton, Schultz

1958
01:24:25,040 --> 01:24:27,479
Speaker 2: and CJ connected on a play that they talked about

1959
01:24:27,520 --> 01:24:28,440
Speaker 2: on the sidelines.

1960
01:24:28,960 --> 01:24:31,719
Speaker 1: A little nodding go by Dalton.

1961
01:24:31,800 --> 01:24:33,920
Speaker 2: Schultz kind of looked like he was gonna run the

1962
01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:36,479
Speaker 2: en route of the basic and then boom boom, and

1963
01:24:36,560 --> 01:24:39,400
Speaker 2: he went by Jesse Bates and Stroud hit him to

1964
01:24:39,560 --> 01:24:44,480
Speaker 2: take the lead and it sent the sideline into hysterics. Well, unfortunately,

1965
01:24:44,520 --> 01:24:47,479
Speaker 2: Desmond Ritter holed some magic. That's why this one's not

1966
01:24:47,640 --> 01:24:50,080
Speaker 2: any higher. But at number eight, the only one in

1967
01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:54,160
Speaker 2: a losing effort. CJ to Dalton late in the game

1968
01:24:54,240 --> 01:24:56,040
Speaker 2: against the Falcons.

1969
01:24:55,640 --> 01:25:01,839
Speaker 4: Texans in the huddle, Singletary is in the game, Metschi woods,

1970
01:25:03,600 --> 01:25:07,160
Speaker 4: They'll send Nico out to the left side, Strautava gun

1971
01:25:07,240 --> 01:25:09,920
Speaker 4: Singletary to his left. Third down and eight at the

1972
01:25:09,920 --> 01:25:14,479
Speaker 4: Falcons eighteen, CJ gets the snap. CJ looking firing to

1973
01:25:14,520 --> 01:25:17,879
Speaker 4: the end zone, God touchdown, Dalton Schultz.

1974
01:25:18,120 --> 01:25:21,880
Speaker 11: They do it, eighteen yard.

1975
01:25:21,680 --> 01:25:24,639
Speaker 4: Touchdown passed to the tight end and the Texans can

1976
01:25:24,720 --> 01:25:26,200
Speaker 4: take the lead with the extra point.

1977
01:25:26,280 --> 01:25:29,040
Speaker 7: And what a throw by c J.

1978
01:25:29,240 --> 01:25:29,719
Speaker 3: Stroud.

1979
01:25:30,800 --> 01:25:32,960
Speaker 2: And that was just the beginning of the late game heroics.

1980
01:25:32,960 --> 01:25:34,760
Speaker 2: And we'll get into a little bit more. But number

1981
01:25:34,800 --> 01:25:39,559
Speaker 2: eight right there, CJ hitting Dalton for the touchdown against

1982
01:25:39,600 --> 01:25:42,960
Speaker 2: the Falcons. Not enough on that day, but what a

1983
01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:45,519
Speaker 2: magnificent moment for both CJ.

1984
01:25:45,560 --> 01:25:46,840
Speaker 1: Stroud and Dalton Schultz. All right.

1985
01:25:46,880 --> 01:25:49,639
Speaker 2: Number seven came in a game that was not looking

1986
01:25:49,720 --> 01:25:53,000
Speaker 2: good early. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had come to town

1987
01:25:53,280 --> 01:25:55,479
Speaker 2: and they had to break a losing streak and Baker

1988
01:25:55,520 --> 01:25:58,200
Speaker 2: Mayfield was hot, and the Texans were in a lot

1989
01:25:58,200 --> 01:26:03,200
Speaker 2: of trouble because Kaymi Fairbearn had gone out, so they

1990
01:26:03,200 --> 01:26:05,439
Speaker 2: had to rely on Daria goombawally later.

1991
01:26:05,240 --> 01:26:05,679
Speaker 1: In the game.

1992
01:26:05,800 --> 01:26:08,080
Speaker 2: But before we could get there, Texans had to get

1993
01:26:08,120 --> 01:26:12,840
Speaker 2: within a touchdown or two of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Well,

1994
01:26:13,200 --> 01:26:15,960
Speaker 2: third quarter, ball to twenty five to start a drive,

1995
01:26:16,320 --> 01:26:19,679
Speaker 2: CJ found Noah, got a block from Tank and Noah

1996
01:26:19,680 --> 01:26:23,320
Speaker 2: would take it seventy five yards to the house. To

1997
01:26:23,520 --> 01:26:26,519
Speaker 2: cut the lead in half against the Buccaneers. That comes

1998
01:26:26,520 --> 01:26:27,320
Speaker 2: in a number seven.

1999
01:26:27,479 --> 01:26:31,160
Speaker 4: CJ fakes the give CJ planting and he throws down

2000
01:26:31,160 --> 01:26:32,679
Speaker 4: field over the middle and he's got.

2001
01:26:32,520 --> 01:26:34,960
Speaker 11: A man Brown upside fifty forty.

2002
01:26:34,760 --> 01:26:38,560
Speaker 4: Up sideline, full throttle twenty fifteen ten five.

2003
01:26:38,479 --> 01:26:39,759
Speaker 11: Fighting for the goal line.

2004
01:26:40,040 --> 01:26:44,639
Speaker 4: Head he's got it, touchdown Houston.

2005
01:26:44,400 --> 01:26:47,760
Speaker 11: Rock and roll seventy five yards.

2006
01:26:47,840 --> 01:26:51,800
Speaker 15: What a block by tanktail, I mean you gotta have

2007
01:26:52,360 --> 01:26:58,280
Speaker 15: unselfish players to be successful offensively, and some guys just have.

2008
01:26:58,400 --> 01:27:00,640
Speaker 14: To flat out do the dirty work every once in

2009
01:27:00,680 --> 01:27:05,200
Speaker 14: a while. You all can't be stars. And the block

2010
01:27:05,360 --> 01:27:07,800
Speaker 14: by tank dal I mean freeze up.

2011
01:27:07,840 --> 01:27:12,200
Speaker 4: Noah Brown, boy, he tight rope that sideline, barely stayed

2012
01:27:12,240 --> 01:27:15,519
Speaker 4: in bounds and fought off a defender right inside the

2013
01:27:15,640 --> 01:27:18,759
Speaker 4: ten to get to the goal line. It was Davis,

2014
01:27:18,800 --> 01:27:21,240
Speaker 4: and he stiff armed him and to get across.

2015
01:27:21,520 --> 01:27:24,600
Speaker 2: That got things rocking in the second half in a

2016
01:27:24,680 --> 01:27:27,960
Speaker 2: game in which CJ threw for four hundred and seventy

2017
01:27:28,439 --> 01:27:31,800
Speaker 2: yards in five tundies against the Buccaneers. That was one

2018
01:27:31,800 --> 01:27:34,360
Speaker 2: of them. That was a big one to Noah Brown.

2019
01:27:34,400 --> 01:27:36,679
Speaker 2: All right, it's boot to number six. Let's go back

2020
01:27:36,720 --> 01:27:41,080
Speaker 2: to Jacksonville. In Week three. The Texans had fought their

2021
01:27:41,120 --> 01:27:43,559
Speaker 2: way through this one. It was seventeen to ten Andrew

2022
01:27:43,600 --> 01:27:46,080
Speaker 2: becket to kickoff return made it twenty four to ten.

2023
01:27:47,000 --> 01:27:48,880
Speaker 2: They kicked a field will to go twenty seven to ten.

2024
01:27:49,040 --> 01:27:50,880
Speaker 2: Jack scored his twenty seven to seventeenth.

2025
01:27:50,920 --> 01:27:51,040
Speaker 12: Though.

2026
01:27:51,080 --> 01:27:53,920
Speaker 1: Okay, maybe the Jags are getting back in it well. CJ.

2027
01:27:54,000 --> 01:27:56,280
Speaker 1: Stroud and Tank Dell are about to shut the door.

2028
01:27:56,400 --> 01:28:01,639
Speaker 2: Third down, stadium rocking in Duvall count and CJ says,

2029
01:28:01,680 --> 01:28:02,960
Speaker 2: you know what, Let's just go to Tank.

2030
01:28:03,240 --> 01:28:05,760
Speaker 1: Sixty eight yards later, the Texans.

2031
01:28:05,400 --> 01:28:08,800
Speaker 2: Put the Kapper on a huge thirty four to seventeen

2032
01:28:08,920 --> 01:28:13,200
Speaker 2: lead and the thirty seven to seventeen wins sixty eight yards.

2033
01:28:13,960 --> 01:28:16,759
Speaker 2: The touchdowns from Stroud to Tank comes in at six.

2034
01:28:17,400 --> 01:28:20,120
Speaker 2: Stroud talking to his teammates. Thirty three from the Houston,

2035
01:28:20,160 --> 01:28:21,320
Speaker 2: thirty two CJ.

2036
01:28:21,200 --> 01:28:23,679
Speaker 4: And the gun one back boom. CJ gets the snap.

2037
01:28:24,000 --> 01:28:27,559
Speaker 4: Here comes uplift CJ firing dwnfield to us right, and

2038
01:28:27,680 --> 01:28:28,519
Speaker 4: Tank has it at.

2039
01:28:28,439 --> 01:28:29,559
Speaker 11: The forty the thirty.

2040
01:28:29,720 --> 01:28:34,960
Speaker 4: The twenty ten five touchdown Tank down to the house.

2041
01:28:38,240 --> 01:28:46,000
Speaker 16: Wow, sixty eight yards. The rookie scores. I think Andre

2042
01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:49,160
Speaker 16: said it best for all of us. Wow, what did

2043
01:28:49,200 --> 01:28:50,360
Speaker 16: we just see?

2044
01:28:50,400 --> 01:28:50,479
Speaker 6: What?

2045
01:28:50,560 --> 01:28:52,040
Speaker 2: We saw a lot of that, and we're gonna get

2046
01:28:52,040 --> 01:28:54,160
Speaker 2: to more of that, uh in just a little bit.

2047
01:28:54,160 --> 01:28:55,599
Speaker 1: But let's get to number five. Now.

2048
01:28:56,880 --> 01:28:59,240
Speaker 2: The passing moments of this year you've already heard Devin

2049
01:28:59,280 --> 01:28:59,960
Speaker 2: Singletary had won.

2050
01:29:00,720 --> 01:29:02,480
Speaker 1: Most of them were CJ. Stroud.

2051
01:29:02,880 --> 01:29:07,080
Speaker 2: From a quarterback perspective, they're almost all CJ. Stroud except

2052
01:29:07,120 --> 01:29:11,080
Speaker 2: for one week against Tennessee. In two moments made it

2053
01:29:11,560 --> 01:29:15,360
Speaker 2: one and number five down by seven, the Texans have

2054
01:29:15,479 --> 01:29:18,639
Speaker 2: fought their way back against the Titans. Needed to tie

2055
01:29:18,680 --> 01:29:20,479
Speaker 2: the game. They sat at the three yard line. They

2056
01:29:20,520 --> 01:29:23,639
Speaker 2: got stuffed on first down. Nothing on second down, third

2057
01:29:23,640 --> 01:29:24,880
Speaker 2: and three, you knew they were gonna have to go

2058
01:29:24,920 --> 01:29:26,439
Speaker 2: for that two downs to get it. They would only

2059
01:29:26,479 --> 01:29:31,880
Speaker 2: need one because Case Keenum would take his Houston and

2060
01:29:32,000 --> 01:29:35,519
Speaker 2: Texans legend to another level when he found Noah Brown

2061
01:29:35,920 --> 01:29:38,759
Speaker 2: for this touchdown to tie the game in Tennessee.

2062
01:29:38,800 --> 01:29:39,879
Speaker 1: It's at number five.

2063
01:29:41,360 --> 01:29:44,920
Speaker 11: End zone to our right crowd, wrapping it up.

2064
01:29:45,000 --> 01:29:50,720
Speaker 4: Tenth player of the drive Texans.

2065
01:29:50,920 --> 01:29:52,559
Speaker 11: Ten seconds on the play clock.

2066
01:29:52,640 --> 01:29:54,680
Speaker 4: They get out of the huddle, third and goal at

2067
01:29:54,720 --> 01:29:57,320
Speaker 4: the three, Keenum and the gun Singletary in the backfield

2068
01:29:57,360 --> 01:30:01,320
Speaker 4: got them. Shultz mos shitting to the left throw, Kanum

2069
01:30:01,400 --> 01:30:02,920
Speaker 4: scrambling to the right, throws to.

2070
01:30:02,880 --> 01:30:03,479
Speaker 11: The end zone.

2071
01:30:03,560 --> 01:30:09,920
Speaker 4: God touchdown Houston, Noah Brown three yard TD pass, Yes,

2072
01:30:09,960 --> 01:30:14,400
Speaker 4: Baby Case Kingum welcome back touchdown.

2073
01:30:14,000 --> 01:30:17,040
Speaker 11: Pass Noah firs TD of the day.

2074
01:30:17,240 --> 01:30:21,960
Speaker 14: Noah Brown started this game hot, gonna finish this game hot.

2075
01:30:22,520 --> 01:30:25,040
Speaker 2: All right, Let's get to number four and for number four,

2076
01:30:25,040 --> 01:30:28,080
Speaker 2: we go to Cincinnati in one of the crazier games

2077
01:30:28,080 --> 01:30:30,880
Speaker 2: of the year. The Texans had pretty much dominated this game.

2078
01:30:30,880 --> 01:30:33,800
Speaker 2: We're up twenty seven to seventeen, had third down at three,

2079
01:30:34,240 --> 01:30:36,080
Speaker 2: had run the ball all day, but decided to throw it.

2080
01:30:36,880 --> 01:30:40,960
Speaker 2: CJ threw an interception, the Bengals scored made twenty seven

2081
01:30:40,960 --> 01:30:44,400
Speaker 2: to twenty four. Texans couldn't get a first down. Bengals

2082
01:30:44,400 --> 01:30:46,040
Speaker 2: went down kick the field goal, made twenty seven to

2083
01:30:46,040 --> 01:30:49,200
Speaker 2: twenty seven. But the Texans had enough time, had enough life,

2084
01:30:49,360 --> 01:30:52,040
Speaker 2: but they were running out of it because they got

2085
01:30:52,040 --> 01:30:53,960
Speaker 2: to a third and long and thought, my god, they're

2086
01:30:53,960 --> 01:30:57,679
Speaker 2: gonna kick it right back to the Bengals and they

2087
01:30:57,920 --> 01:31:01,240
Speaker 2: couldn't afford to do that. So at this point it

2088
01:31:01,320 --> 01:31:04,479
Speaker 2: was time for two guys to step up and make

2089
01:31:04,560 --> 01:31:10,080
Speaker 2: plays on not consecutive downs, but one down on third

2090
01:31:10,200 --> 01:31:13,360
Speaker 2: down and then two plays later the big play. Well,

2091
01:31:13,400 --> 01:31:16,320
Speaker 2: they were both big plays, so I split this into

2092
01:31:16,439 --> 01:31:20,759
Speaker 2: four A and four B. First one, third down conversion CJ.

2093
01:31:20,840 --> 01:31:26,160
Speaker 2: Stroud to Dalton Schultz, Second one CJ. Stroud to Noah

2094
01:31:26,240 --> 01:31:29,240
Speaker 2: Brown to get them in field goal range to beat

2095
01:31:29,280 --> 01:31:30,000
Speaker 2: the Bengals.

2096
01:31:30,040 --> 01:31:31,680
Speaker 1: Four A and four B. Let's go.

2097
01:31:31,960 --> 01:31:35,840
Speaker 4: Here's the snap Stroud looking, Stroud firing downfield and caught

2098
01:31:35,840 --> 01:31:39,160
Speaker 4: by Schultz at the forty six yard line, the tackle

2099
01:31:39,240 --> 01:31:42,880
Speaker 4: made by Cam Taylor Britt the forty six of the Bengals.

2100
01:31:42,880 --> 01:31:46,479
Speaker 4: Thirty one seconds to go now, motion by boom. CJ

2101
01:31:46,600 --> 01:31:49,240
Speaker 4: takes the snap, throws over the middle, hits Noah Brown,

2102
01:31:49,479 --> 01:31:53,439
Speaker 4: breaks a tackle thirty twenty five Noah twenty and he's

2103
01:31:53,439 --> 01:31:56,320
Speaker 4: wrapped up at the twenty yard line. Timeout called with

2104
01:31:56,439 --> 01:32:00,440
Speaker 4: five seconds to go. They get the ball to Brown

2105
01:32:01,080 --> 01:32:03,400
Speaker 4: and they're ready to try a field goal.

2106
01:32:03,840 --> 01:32:06,760
Speaker 2: Every single yard that Noah Brown thought for was important,

2107
01:32:07,040 --> 01:32:11,000
Speaker 2: because matt Amadola's thirty nine yard field goal just got

2108
01:32:11,080 --> 01:32:14,040
Speaker 2: inside the upright. We'll never forget seeing that thing go

2109
01:32:14,160 --> 01:32:17,559
Speaker 2: through was absolutely awesome. Now, the Texans also had a

2110
01:32:17,560 --> 01:32:21,879
Speaker 2: game winning field goal in overtime against the Tennessee Titans,

2111
01:32:22,160 --> 01:32:23,960
Speaker 2: and it wasn't looking good for a long time. They

2112
01:32:24,000 --> 01:32:26,320
Speaker 2: tied the game as you heard earlier with No Brown's touchdown,

2113
01:32:27,080 --> 01:32:29,799
Speaker 2: but then over time the drive they had went backwards

2114
01:32:29,880 --> 01:32:32,639
Speaker 2: twenty one yards, so the minute forty eight and forty

2115
01:32:32,680 --> 01:32:36,120
Speaker 2: seven they got the ball back at the twenty yard

2116
01:32:36,160 --> 01:32:39,360
Speaker 2: line and it was time for a little case Keenum magic.

2117
01:32:40,000 --> 01:32:43,200
Speaker 2: He would find motor for forty one yards, which helped

2118
01:32:43,280 --> 01:32:46,000
Speaker 2: set up a long Kimi fairbarn Field goal to win

2119
01:32:46,040 --> 01:32:49,040
Speaker 2: it at the gun. But at number three, Case Keenum

2120
01:32:49,040 --> 01:32:51,759
Speaker 2: finds motor. A little scramble drill.

2121
01:32:51,800 --> 01:32:52,559
Speaker 1: This is awesome.

2122
01:32:52,880 --> 01:32:56,280
Speaker 4: One forty three to go in overtime, two timeouts for

2123
01:32:56,360 --> 01:32:57,120
Speaker 4: the Texans.

2124
01:32:57,640 --> 01:32:59,320
Speaker 11: Case Kingum shut up.

2125
01:33:00,720 --> 01:33:03,880
Speaker 4: First down Texans at the Houston twenty Motor in the backfield,

2126
01:33:04,000 --> 01:33:09,040
Speaker 4: Case puts the leg down. Kingum to throat, Keenum pocket collapsing,

2127
01:33:09,040 --> 01:33:10,040
Speaker 4: scrambles to the right.

2128
01:33:10,120 --> 01:33:11,720
Speaker 11: Kanum floats the ball downfield.

2129
01:33:11,920 --> 01:33:16,000
Speaker 4: He's got a man motor across the fifty forty right sideline,

2130
01:33:16,439 --> 01:33:19,040
Speaker 4: well into Titan territory in the bounds at the thirty

2131
01:33:19,080 --> 01:33:19,960
Speaker 4: eight yard line.

2132
01:33:20,120 --> 01:33:22,640
Speaker 11: Big playing a singletary.

2133
01:33:22,360 --> 01:33:23,599
Speaker 1: Texans would beat the Titans.

2134
01:33:23,680 --> 01:33:29,040
Speaker 2: Dressed as oilers, and it was freaking awe some awesome,

2135
01:33:29,920 --> 01:33:32,920
Speaker 2: just as awesome was against Arizona. We came back for

2136
01:33:32,960 --> 01:33:35,800
Speaker 2: a three game stretch, had the Cardinals at home, and

2137
01:33:35,920 --> 01:33:41,240
Speaker 2: right before the half, CJ. Stroud found Tank Dell forty

2138
01:33:41,320 --> 01:33:44,840
Speaker 2: yards down the field and then there was a really

2139
01:33:44,880 --> 01:33:48,000
Speaker 2: cool moment. So two A is the touchdown to B

2140
01:33:48,920 --> 01:33:51,439
Speaker 2: is Well, they'll just take a listen to what two

2141
01:33:51,439 --> 01:33:52,760
Speaker 2: B is offset iye.

2142
01:33:52,840 --> 01:33:56,120
Speaker 4: CJ drops back in the pocket, looking flushed out to

2143
01:33:56,160 --> 01:33:58,000
Speaker 4: the right. CJ comes at.

2144
01:33:58,000 --> 01:34:06,120
Speaker 11: Long downfield and amazing catch Tank Dell. Wanna throw by Stroud.

2145
01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:09,680
Speaker 4: M Dell with the reception jump set to the stands,

2146
01:34:10,000 --> 01:34:11,639
Speaker 4: go Coobs, that's my guy.

2147
01:34:12,240 --> 01:34:15,360
Speaker 11: Unbelievable, what a grand bay tank Dale.

2148
01:34:15,400 --> 01:34:19,559
Speaker 14: I mean, he extended every bit of his body to

2149
01:34:19,680 --> 01:34:20,759
Speaker 14: make that catch.

2150
01:34:21,040 --> 01:34:26,760
Speaker 4: Whoa extra point by Amandola up and good and.

2151
01:34:26,720 --> 01:34:31,240
Speaker 11: The crowd is chatting m P for CJ. Stroud.

2152
01:34:32,000 --> 01:34:35,040
Speaker 2: Now, unfortunately, with the injury, obviously CJ not gonna be

2153
01:34:35,040 --> 01:34:37,439
Speaker 2: in the MVP discussion at the end of the year,

2154
01:34:37,479 --> 01:34:40,000
Speaker 2: but he certainly was at that moment. He certainly was.

2155
01:34:40,560 --> 01:34:45,599
Speaker 2: After play number one, the ultimate play of the season

2156
01:34:46,680 --> 01:34:51,160
