I know 32 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 5: it's not that way right now because it's the sun's 33 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 5: going down, but I suspect tomorrow's going to be a 34 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 5: whole lot worse. But what a great day, great time 35 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:39,679 Speaker 5: of the year.

They don't have to put any 39 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 5: fires out, he Sannas said. We can focus on the 40 00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 5: present the future, not have to take care of any problems. 41 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 5: And so I'm excited to be writing again, of course, 42 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 5: doing talk shows and TV and everything else, including Texans Radio. 43 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 2: General, your general out to your general thoughts about practice, 44 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 2: some of the things that you saw, some of the 45 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 2: things that stood out, kind of your observations, if you will, 46 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 2: along those lines, My hairs hits her up there. My 47 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 2: observations from practice, So your thoughts about what you saw 48 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:28,359 Speaker 2: at practice on day one. 49 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 3: It was a little shorter. It was an hour and 50 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 3: a half practice. 51 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 2: Where you used to at least two to ten on 52 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 2: the first day in many days, but it's a little shorter. 53 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 5: What'd you think, Well, I just tweeted your hair's hits 54 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 5: and I would recommend people check them out every day. 55 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 5: And unlike you, I don't fraud at the mouth at 56 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 5: the first day of training camp when they're not even 57 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 5: wearing pads. But but you had some great observations about 58 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 5: watching the individual players and the one that did a 59 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 5: lot I was going to be watching closely that she 60 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 5: wrote about Damian Piers. Yep, Damian Piers couldn't pick up 61 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 5: the system last year. You know, he was a backup, 62 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,799 Speaker 5: He was a kick returner, had a great attitude, couldn't 63 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 5: run over people until he got to the second level 64 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 5: like he's used to doing as a rookie. But now 65 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 5: after being in the system and working at it today 66 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 5: at least because the style is totally different, he put 67 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 5: that foot down boom and he went and if he 68 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 5: can keep that up when they start putting on pads 69 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 5: and then have a joint practice with the Rams, and 70 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 5: in the preseason games that he gets to play, it's 71 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 5: going to be very exciting if they have a legitimate 72 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 5: one to two punch with Peers and Joe Mixon. 73 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 4: General, what do you think of the long training camp, 74 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 4: how it will affect them. I thought today's practice really 75 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 4: felt loose. 76 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 3: It was good. I'm not talking about lack of precision 77 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 3: and focus. 78 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 4: I'm just talking about they just felt like they were 79 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 4: a very well together, put together team, and they handled 80 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 4: their business well and they just went about it and 81 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 4: got off the field and I'm not going to say 82 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 4: record time or anything, but it wasn't a dragging on 83 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 4: kind of event because they know it's a long camp 84 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 4: and they do have a long runway here. 85 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 5: Well, it's the same with the media. It's the first day. Naturally, 86 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 5: everybody's more excited. The weather is fantastic, so of course 87 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 5: let's see if they If you make that observation the 88 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 5: next day, probably tomorrow, which is going to be really hot, 89 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 5: they have to come over and stand in the sun 90 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 5: when they're doing interviews. I think it's natural. It's like 91 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 5: going back to school. Everybody's pumped to see who's class 92 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 5: they're in who they sit next to, and I think 93 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 5: it's that way. Plus this SEM's excited about the season, 94 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 5: you know they they Nick of Serio and Bag O'Ryan's 95 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 5: I'm be guessing they would rather have been tasered than 96 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 5: mint mentioned the word super in Bowl like everybody else is. 97 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 5: I'll watch two longtime NFL veterans on ESPN talk about 98 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 5: last night this offense is unstoppable, and then they went 99 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 5: into show why it's unstoppable and that they're there is 100 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 5: because they got a really good chance to make the 101 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 5: Super Bowl. And then I heard on NFL radio that 102 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 5: Texans are legitimate Super Bowl contender by former NFL player 103 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 5: Ed McCaffery. And none of them mentioned a schedule, how 104 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 5: tough the schedule is. The quarterbacks they play yest. Yes, 105 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 5: they're loaded with talent, especially on offense. Got quite a 106 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 5: bit of talent on defense. And this team is fired 107 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 5: up about the season, and it's going to be hard, 108 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 5: really hard to not get caught up in the expectations, 109 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 5: no matter how much to Miko and the coaches and 110 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 5: Nick Casario try to keep them from doing it, because 111 00:05:56,360 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 5: it you know, this hasn't happened legitimately they never had 112 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 5: a team that's talented under Bill O'Brien. The last time 113 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,359 Speaker 5: they had a team with his high expectations was coming 114 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 5: up twenty twelve season when they were loaded with tallent 115 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 5: after that twelve and four rager, and that team was 116 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,679 Speaker 5: a uge disappointment. But this one, everybody's fired up about 117 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 5: it locally and nationally and we all can't wait to 118 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 5: see how it plays out. 119 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 4: I think the big difference with the twenty thirteen offseason. Yeah, 120 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 4: we all saw what they did going to twelve and 121 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 4: four and twenty twelve, but there was such disappointment about 122 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 4: the finish in twenty twelve that there was doubt about 123 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 4: can they really get over the hump. I don't think 124 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 4: anybody thought that they weren't going to win ten plus 125 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 4: games in twenty thirteen. The question was could they get 126 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 4: there the postseason? So I want to ask you this general, 127 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,239 Speaker 4: in your what is it nearly five decades of covering 128 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 4: this league when you have a team that has quote 129 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 4: Super Bowl expectations and we talk about how tough the 130 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,159 Speaker 4: schedule is. Yes, but I think all of us agree 131 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 4: that they should be able to get to the posts 132 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 4: season if they stay healthy, get there than execute. So 133 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,599 Speaker 4: what is it about Super Bowl expectations when a team 134 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 4: has that has that put upon them? What is the 135 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 4: X factor that separates achieving that from not achieving that? 136 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 3: Ultimately? What are your thoughts on that subject? 137 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 6: Injuries? 138 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 5: When you are a good team like Texans, and there's 139 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 5: a lot of good teams, injury is going to tell 140 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 5: the tale, of course. But they experience they gained last 141 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 5: year of being in the playoffs, having the playoff race, 142 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 5: of having all those close games, thinking it up against 143 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 5: Atlanta and Carolina, then coming back winning at Cincinnati, that 144 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 5: incredible comeback against Tampa Bay, and all those experiences are 145 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 5: going to be good for this season that he is. 146 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 5: Can to win a division? Can they get more than 147 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 5: one playoff game? You guys know you've been here. This 148 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 5: team's never gotten beyond the second round of the playoffs. 149 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 5: Have an added team in AFC Championship game. As fans 150 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 5: in Houston since nineteen seventy nine, can they get a 151 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 5: second playoff game at NRG Stadium? That would help tremendously. 152 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 5: And one of the things if they get that to 153 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 5: get in the playoffs, that schedule they will have played. 154 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 5: It's going to help them tremendously. Remember in twenty nineteen 155 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 5: and went into Arrowhead and he beat the Chiefs homes 156 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 5: through three touchdown passes, and then he came back and 157 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 5: had the confidence to gain a twenty three to nothing 158 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 5: lead in the second quarter. 159 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 6: And then and then yeah, then, yeah, this. 160 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 5: Team's got confidence and their confident in their quarterback, and 161 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 5: they've never had a quarterback here. Maybe Deshaun Watson coming 162 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 5: off the twenty nineteen season, But I don't ever remember 163 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 5: anybody talking like they are Cg's trout and he knows it, 164 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:00,200 Speaker 5: you know. 165 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:02,439 Speaker 6: And I thought it was very interesting to me. 166 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 5: Cos asked today, Okay, you talk about him being a 167 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 5: better leader, what does that mean? Because he's a leader anyway, 168 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 5: and he was really good talking about it. Of course, 169 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 5: it all starts with him, but they got to keep 170 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,559 Speaker 5: him healthy. Yes, do all those teams that have Super 171 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 5: Bowl aspirations, It starts with him. And to me, the 172 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 5: biggest questions on this team who's gonna play left guard? 173 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 5: Can Kenyon Green play the way he was predicted to 174 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 5: play when he was the first round pick, And who's 175 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 5: gonna play defensive tackle? I think we all thought they 176 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 5: were going to draft defensive tackle high or they're gonna 177 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,439 Speaker 5: spend money on a defensive tackle, and they didn't. And 178 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 5: so right now they got like six candidates for those 179 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 5: two starting jobs. And based on what I saw last 180 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 5: year from Dimiico and Matt Burke, they deserve the benefit 181 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 5: of the doubt. They see something in somebody that allowed 182 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 5: them to trade Collins for a seventh round pick. And 183 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 5: even though they made Sheldon Rankins a good offer, Cincinnati, 184 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 5: just like it did with DJ Raider, offered him a 185 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 5: couple of millions more so he had to take it. 186 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 5: So there's a lot of things to watch, but those 187 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 5: two sides of the ball are what I'm gonna be 188 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 5: watching the most by the time the regular season starts 189 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 5: at Indy. 190 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 2: Generally number three overall pick, because we talked about the 191 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 2: number two overall pick and CJ. Strout the number three 192 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 2: overall pick, and that draft is Will Anderson Junior. 193 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 3: I don't know that people are awhere. Yes they are. 194 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 2: He went to the podium today and he said something 195 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 2: pretty interesting and it matched what I had seen. He 196 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,439 Speaker 2: came in here for not an interview, but he was 197 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 2: doing like some sound for I don't know a sponsor. 198 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 3: And so when he walked in. He was in full 199 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 3: uniform and I was like, boy, it looks bigger. 200 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 2: Well at the podium today, he said, and I've been paraphrasing. 201 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 3: I was two forty last year. 202 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 2: I got I felt like I got pushed around at 203 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 2: the end of the year, so I put on some weight. 204 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 3: He said, he's up to two sixty three. 205 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 2: You buying that as a good thing for Will Anderson 206 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 2: Junior in the Texans or not? 207 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 5: Well, he was listed last year at two forty three. 208 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 5: He was two fifty five at the combine, and he 209 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 5: was two sixty in camp because I asked him in 210 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:13,959 Speaker 5: an interview. 211 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 6: So they still have him at two forty three. So 212 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 6: now we know. 213 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,359 Speaker 5: So he played two sixty last year according to himself, 214 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 5: and so I think adding three pounds, but mainly the 215 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:28,200 Speaker 5: experience of being a pro and going through that first season, 216 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 5: he's going to explode. And I think that he may 217 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 5: not be a twenty sat guy like JJ White was, 218 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 5: but I think he's going to I think we all 219 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:41,559 Speaker 5: agree he's going to be a perennial double digit sack guy. 220 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 5: And that stuff about two forty. He hadn't weighed at 221 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,199 Speaker 5: two forty. Since he's at Alabama because I looked at 222 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 5: the combine and see what he was officially weighing. That's 223 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 5: why I asked a lot of those players because they 224 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 5: look bigger and when they worked so hard in the 225 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,439 Speaker 5: weight room and to get on their diet, you know, 226 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 5: I like know what their accurate weight is. And I 227 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 5: think he's going to be tremendous having him and Daniel 228 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 5: Hunter outside and then passing situations Denico Autrey moving inside. 229 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 5: We're talking about two guys that had double digit sacks 230 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 5: last year and one on the verge of double digit 231 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 5: sas Nikias. Who will let fourth pass rusher be in 232 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 5: obvious passing situations. I think Anderson's going to be a 233 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 5: great player for a long time. I think we all 234 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 5: everybody thinks so highly of will Anderson Junior because of 235 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 5: his ability, his work ethic, and the kind of person 236 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 5: he is. 237 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 4: One thing that jumped out to me today was teaking 238 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 4: Katoriano being out there. Health is great, and I put 239 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 4: Katoriano in the category of, Hey, when he's healthy, he 240 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 4: seems to make plays, seems to make things happen. He's 241 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 4: just got to stay on the football field for an 242 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 4: extended period of time in order to get into the 243 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 4: groove and seeing him out there and Brevin Jordan and 244 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 4: I know there are different types of tight ends, but 245 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 4: that it was good to see because we know they 246 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,439 Speaker 4: drafted Stover. He have Dalton Schultz, you have Dalton Keene 247 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 4: as well. But what do you make of the tight 248 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 4: end group with a healthy Tea and Katoriana thrown into 249 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 4: the mixed John he. 250 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 5: Looks, he looks great, he looks the part. He's tall, 251 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 5: he's he's built for the position. He can block. Now, 252 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:24,719 Speaker 5: Miko Collins was hurt in his first two years. Maybe Contriano, 253 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 5: if he stays healthy, he'd be tremendous. And they give 254 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 5: him four tight ends right now, they got three in 255 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 5: Brevin Jordan's like a big wide receiver. Cat Stover might 256 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 5: be kind of like that, but they I love Stover, 257 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 5: everybody does because the physicality and so Schultz. It's so funny. 258 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 5: People when they're talking about nationally Texans receivers, a lot 259 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,199 Speaker 5: of them leave off Dalton Schultz. But we saw every play. 260 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:56,319 Speaker 5: We know him as CJ. Stroud trusts him and Katoriano 261 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 5: could get in that rotation at tight end and stay 262 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 5: healthy for the first time, that would be a tremendous 263 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 5: edition that he's got to prove it. So far he hasn't. 264 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 2: So general, Fox Sports did an article and it is 265 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 2: the top ranking the ten best head coach quarterback duos 266 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 2: entering the twenty twenty four season. A. How shocked are 267 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 2: you that the Texans are not in this group with CJ. 268 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 2: Stroud and Tamiko Ryans and b how shocked are you 269 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 2: that they do not have Dmiko Ryans and CJ. 270 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 7: Stroud. 271 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 5: Well, first of all, I think that's just from lack 272 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 5: of experience. I haven't seen the list. I don't know 273 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 5: who's at the bottom of it, but I saw a 274 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 5: list of today. Stroud was seventh best quarterback in the NFL. 275 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 5: I think that was rated by ESPN. I paid a 276 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 5: lot more attentions in ESPN than I do Fox. So 277 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 5: I think it's just the fact that Tamiko's at one 278 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 5: year and Stroud's had one year, and I'm guessing don't 279 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 5: have any other one year du oh year from now. 280 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 5: If they do that, they might be in the top 281 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 5: three or four. 282 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, they have. 283 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 2: So, as I poked a little bit further, it's Colin 284 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 2: Cowherd's list, so that should tell you something. He has 285 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 2: honorable mention Kyle Shanahan and Brock Purdy. 286 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 3: He doesn't even have those two in the top. And 287 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 3: you know the top, it's ridiculous. 288 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 2: Lions Campbell and Golf, Dolphins McDaniel, Tua, Cowboys McCarthy and 289 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 2: Dak Packers, Matley Floor, Jordan Love, Bengals, Zach Taylor, Joe Burrow, McDermott, 290 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 2: Josh Allen and. 291 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 3: Buffalo Harbaugh and Herbert are number four. 292 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 2: Ravens, Harbaugh and Lamar three Rams, McVeigh and Stafford two 293 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 2: chiefs Andy Reid, Patrick Mahomes one. 294 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 6: I can't argue with that list. 295 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 5: I don't know who I would take out, but there's 296 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 5: no doubt they'd be right behind it. I'm surprised as 297 00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 5: good buddy Sean Baydon wasn't in there with Bow. 298 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 3: Trust me. 299 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 2: The Denver media is not real happy about bo Nicks general. 300 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 4: Do you think Brock party suffers from where he was 301 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 4: drafted discrimination? I mean, we have a quarterback who throws 302 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 4: for over sixty nine percent three to one TD to 303 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 4: interception ratio, nine point six yards per attempt. 304 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 3: These are ridiculous numbers, and I think. 305 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 4: People still sort of look at him like he's got 306 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 4: a good team around him. If he was drafted in 307 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 4: the top five, we'd be talking about him as one 308 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 4: of the top quarterbacks. 309 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 6: I believe so. 310 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 5: But I think first your first answer, Mark was telling 311 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 5: he's got the most talent around him of any team 312 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 5: in the league. If you look at the running backs 313 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 5: and the wide receivers and the tight ends, they're number one. 314 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 5: I think Detations and their Lions are right there at 315 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 5: number two and three. And it's it's definitely being held 316 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 5: against party where he was drafted how much talent he has. 317 00:16:55,960 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 5: But boy, when he signs that new contract next yeer oh, 318 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 5: he's not gonna care one ioed because because he's gonna 319 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 5: be in at fifty five million a year range. 320 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 3: Yeah he is. 321 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 2: By the way, Uh, speaking of Brock Purdy, he's not 322 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 2: featured in the Netflix show Receiver, but he's kind of 323 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 2: a side character. And I said this before I was 324 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 2: I would say I was shocked. But you could tell 325 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 2: they they like him, They respecting the players too. They 326 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 2: they look at him as the leader that the straw sturned. 327 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 2: That drink there, I thought was interesting. So general, have 328 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 2: you made some summer watching of Receiver and or Hard Knocks, 329 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 2: or if you avoided both are having that chance to 330 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:37,120 Speaker 2: watch either. 331 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: No. 332 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 5: I watch every Hard Knocks. I've seen every Hard Knock 333 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 5: since the show started. I'm fascinated by them. And one 334 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 5: of the things that's interesting the way Mike Florio diessects 335 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 5: the giants and he's coming up with way as well 336 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 5: they tampered. This was this day, This was the way 337 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 5: they were dressed. It had to been on the weekend. 338 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,439 Speaker 5: The weekend was before for the legal tampering. And it 339 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 5: is very revealing, especially all stuff about Saquon Barclay. I 340 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 5: find it fascinating. And I'm guessing it's gonna be tough 341 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 5: for them to find a team next year to do 342 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 5: that all season because so much is about free agency 343 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 5: in a draft, but it is. I think it is great. 344 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 5: Joe Seann the Shane or shunk Shane Shane Shane, Joe 345 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 5: Shane is the star of the general manager and he's 346 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:27,360 Speaker 5: very uh he's good for the camera and Brian Dave 347 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 5: All the coach doesn't get nearly as much attention, and uh, 348 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 5: but I think that is a great show. Having a 349 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 5: senior receiver and uh but I can't get enough of 350 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 5: Hard Knocks. Can't wait for a training camp. 351 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 4: Jay Schrader and Joe Shane should be in the same 352 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 4: club of people who wish their names were spelled differently, 353 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 4: see because everybody mispronounces too. I mean, Jay Schrader is 354 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 4: our named from the past, but I mean once you 355 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 4: know it, you know it. But still it's how do 356 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 4: you feel if you're Jay Schrader and you're the one 357 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 4: Washington quarterback who didn't win Super Bowl in that era? 358 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 6: He was a jerk? Though? 359 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,920 Speaker 3: What was he really? That's what I've heard? Oh wow, 360 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 3: he to Doug Williams. 361 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 4: Doug Williams talked about that, you know, he's not a jerk, 362 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 4: and that would be a Lonzo Highsmith. He's with the Patriots, 363 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 4: but aj higt Smith with the Titans. 364 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:13,959 Speaker 3: General. 365 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 4: How about that that he's the director of scouting for 366 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 4: the Tennessee Titans. 367 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 3: That's a good bid for him. 368 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 6: And Alonso just got a promotion from the Patriots. 369 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, very nice, very nice. What about Tennessee, Lamb, what 370 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 4: are you hearing now? They're not in campy it? So 371 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:29,959 Speaker 4: I guess all quiet on the AFC South front when 372 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,879 Speaker 4: we look at the Jags, Titans, and Colts. 373 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 5: Well, on my two shows that I do weekly in Nashville. 374 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 5: Of course they're all fired up about it. They made 375 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 5: a lot of moves ran calling for on the second year, 376 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 5: general manager got Mike gray Blout and was able to 377 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:49,439 Speaker 5: get the head coach he wanted in Brian Callahan, and 378 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 5: they put a lot of weapons around around Will Levis. 379 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 5: Really improved their offensive line and Andres wag was their 380 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 5: big defensive tackle. To go next to a healthy Jeffrey 381 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 5: simm And sweat and his White's gonna get a lot 382 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 5: of attention. They probably won't like it, but that's what 383 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 5: happens when you're almost three hundred and seventy pounds. I'd 384 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 5: love to see what he weighs in at. 385 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:11,479 Speaker 6: But they're fired up. 386 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,439 Speaker 5: They lose the Texans as an example, every week they 387 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 5: talk to me about the Texans going from worse to first, 388 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 5: and they're hoping that that happens with the with the Titans, 389 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 5: And of course it's all about Will Levis. If Will 390 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 5: Leviston take the next step, then Brian Callahan's gonna want 391 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 5: to find his starting quarterback. 392 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,679 Speaker 2: General ESPN has been doing a top ten series of 393 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 2: positions and they've been doing them one per day. CJ 394 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 2: was number seven. LT was Laramie was number three on 395 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,160 Speaker 2: his list. Dalton Schultz made the top ten. Digs made 396 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 2: the top ten. They just unveiled the last one today 397 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 2: or today? Yesterday? What's today? 398 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 7: Yeah? 399 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 2: Either way, Derek Stingley Junior comes in at number ten, 400 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:59,160 Speaker 2: top ten cornerback in the NFL. Is highest ranking by 401 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,360 Speaker 2: one of the eighty the NFL people that did this 402 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 2: was number two. He came into number two. His lowest 403 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 2: ranking was he was unranked. So he comes in number ten. 404 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 2: How does that strike both of you? What do you 405 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 2: think about Derek Stingley Junior being thought of as a 406 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,360 Speaker 2: top ten cornerback in the NFL. 407 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 5: Can you imagine where his ranking would be next year 408 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,679 Speaker 5: if he actually stays healthy. Yeah, you know, if he 409 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 5: stays healthy, he's going to become a perennial law pro selection. 410 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 5: We saw what he could do when he came back 411 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 5: last year, and he's a tremendous player. I watched Jeffrey 412 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 5: Ocuda walk after practice across the field going back to 413 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 5: the locker room, and I thought, man oh Man third 414 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 5: overall pick by Detroit. It's like Derek Stanley Junior never 415 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 5: been a corner selected higher than Jeffrey Ocudah and he's 416 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 5: on his third team, and what it would be like 417 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 5: if he could actually stay healthy, play the way he 418 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 5: was projected when he came out of Ohio State, and 419 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 5: then he could start and move Kwame last Kamari Last 420 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 5: the inside, and I don't know that that will happen. 421 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 5: I kind of think Lastar will be outside. But man, 422 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 5: oh man, what a big deal it'd be for the 423 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 5: Texans if they had two corners selected third overall and 424 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,959 Speaker 5: both of them played the way they're capable of playing, 425 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 5: and that means staying healthy. But as far as Stingley doesn't, 426 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 5: it kind of surprises me. He made the top ten 427 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 5: based on how much time he's missed his first two years. 428 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 5: But whoever was paying attention to him, they were watching 429 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 5: those tape, and the tape don't lie. 430 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 4: What's the first thing you're going to look for when 431 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 4: they eventually get into pads. Where are your eyes going 432 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 4: to go? 433 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 5: General, the lineman, the offensive lineman, the defensive lineman, the 434 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 5: running backs, because then we can see him hit. You know, 435 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 5: they don't want to go to the ground. I can't 436 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 5: wait for the joint practice. Love joint practices. Eventually they're 437 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 5: going to be eighteen games, two preseason games. Probably an 438 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 5: extra joint practice too, And but I wanted to see 439 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,159 Speaker 5: the guys that it benefits the most. 440 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 6: You know, we can. 441 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 5: Watch them running and catching and covering right now. And 442 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 5: another thing that it's it'll be underrated in camp. But 443 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,360 Speaker 5: John pointed this out and Harr said, it's Tommy Townsend 444 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 5: a new putter. He's got some big shoes to feel 445 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 5: because Cam Johnston did a tremendous job here and Townsend 446 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 5: has got all his Super Bowl rings. He wanted to 447 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 5: get paid. He did, and he was booming some punts. 448 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 2: His hangtime today was unbelievable. Yeah, the first two or 449 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 2: three that he hit, I mean gets off his foot 450 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,720 Speaker 2: and you're like, I mean, it's it's I mean you're 451 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 2: just watching the air like, oh my. 452 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 3: Gosh, I could eat a sandwich. You know, it's in 453 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 3: the air forever. Incredible hangtime. 454 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 4: I know there are so many good ones around the league, 455 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 4: but when you think about the last three that have 456 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 4: been here with Brian Anger and then you got Cam 457 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:55,919 Speaker 4: and then you have Tommy Townsend. 458 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,160 Speaker 3: This is fun. This is fun to have these guys. 459 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 4: It is and Townsend is good to be fun to 460 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 4: watch as a punter. And I yes, I did say that. 461 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 4: I did formulate a sentence. It's gonna be fun to 462 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 4: watch as a punter. Well, Cam was fun to watch 463 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,360 Speaker 4: as a punter. I mean to have that. 464 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 2: It's funny because when you have one, you pretty much 465 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 2: take it for granted, like, Okay, Cam's just gonna bomb one, 466 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 2: or Time's gonna bomb one. 467 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 6: You're good. 468 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 2: I hope Tommy Townsend is the least used player on 469 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 2: his team. 470 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, of course, I know you two agree with me 471 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 3: on that. I'll just score. Yeah, don't turn it over, 472 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 3: just score. Hopefully's out there just for holding extra points? General, 473 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 3: what do you have on? 474 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 5: You set it out there like it used to being 475 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 5: with the Oilers and Greg Montgomery. He never he didn't 476 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:35,399 Speaker 5: have enough punch to qualify for the stats because of 477 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 5: their offense with Warren Man and Rose Matthews and Mike 478 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 5: Munchak and now they start calling the may Tag repair man. 479 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:44,399 Speaker 6: He never had enough before. 480 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,159 Speaker 3: All right, wait, you brought that up. 481 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: All right? 482 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 3: I saw Houston ninety three again. 483 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 4: It was out in my office because NFL Network runs 484 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 4: that back and you're on there, and Mark Burman's on there. 485 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 4: General that season, that was coming off the lost of Buffalo, 486 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 4: right the meltdown against Buffalo, What would he expectations heading 487 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 4: into that season sky high? 488 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 3: Or were they ah, they'll never get over that. 489 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 5: No, Sky doesn't bring in Buddy Ryan is defensive coordinator 490 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 5: and firing Jim Eddy who had failed to adjust in 491 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 5: the game, and they got you know, at the point, 492 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,399 Speaker 5: was the biggest choke job in NFL history. 493 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 6: It's number two now. 494 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 5: And so when they brought in Buddy, and Buddy came 495 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 5: in talking big time super Bowl, creating all kinds of controversy. 496 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,440 Speaker 5: Hated to run and shoot, called it to Chuck and 497 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 5: Duck on ktrh Buddy Ryan at his show, he would 498 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 5: rip the offense, ripped offensive coordinator Kevin gilbrid Kevin would 499 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 5: come back the next night. Fans would call him and 500 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 5: tell him what Buddy said.

For me, you never lose sight of 668 00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 8: just because we were guys were here last year, they 669 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 8: understand it. So we have a ton of new guys 670 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 8: on our team. Each team is different, so for me, 671 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 8: we're still instilling those principles of how the Houston Texans 672 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 8: played football and how can we rep our style. So 673 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 8: it'll be a lot of teaching and we'll continue to 674 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 8: teach until it shows up on game day. 675 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 7: Uh, boys and all that. Can you remember a point 676 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,439 Speaker 7: in your career when you were able to actually put 677 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 7: that to practice? 678 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 1: You talk about not believing on how. 679 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:37,839 Speaker 7: Not eating the raft, boys and all that. 680 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:39,919 Speaker 1: You remember a pointing in your career where you were. 681 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 7: Able to actually do that. 682 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:44,239 Speaker 8: When we talk about expectations for the season and what 683 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 8: that means, it all starts internally for each and every 684 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:50,440 Speaker 8: guy on the field, like what do you expect for yourself? 685 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 8: And that's what I asked our guys yesterday. It's not 686 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,360 Speaker 8: about what people say on the outside. That doesn't change 687 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,359 Speaker 8: who you are. It's about who you think you are. 688 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 8: What do you think you can achieve and accomplish as 689 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 8: a player, Right, That's the only thing that matters to 690 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:09,959 Speaker 8: me and the expectations are always driven internally, so while 691 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,239 Speaker 8: guys think high of themselves, will go high. And that's 692 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 8: how I want guys thinking their second. 693 00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,720 Speaker 1: Year, particularly. 694 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:23,919 Speaker 7: Kim. 695 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:27,160 Speaker 8: The biggest key in the second year is really it's 696 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 8: your first off season, first true offseason. So it all 697 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 8: starts with how you attack that offseason the right way, 698 00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 8: because guys can make some huge strides in their off 699 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,360 Speaker 8: season preparation as second year players. 700 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 7: They don't have to worry. 701 00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 8: About combined prep like they can truly dedicate themselves to football. 702 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:47,759 Speaker 8: So I think you'll see guys start right man pick 703 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 8: up where they left off, hopefully, But it's just a 704 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 8: matter of those guys. 705 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 7: And think for the second year guys, they have so much. 706 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 8: More confidence because they know what to expect now, they 707 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 8: know how practices are gonna be, they know the meeting, 708 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:02,359 Speaker 8: they know the skin, so they don't have to there's 709 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,240 Speaker 8: not any uncertainty before those guys, so they can truly 710 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 8: dial in and lock in and focus on football and 711 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,759 Speaker 8: they can become better players. And you see a tremendous 712 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:12,879 Speaker 8: growth in the year two and that's what we're looking 713 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 8: for for all of. 714 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:15,720 Speaker 7: Our year two guys. CJ. 715 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 8: Will Henry All of our I mean tank, all of 716 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 8: these guys we brought in. I'm excited to see them, 717 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:24,240 Speaker 8: you know, perform again. 718 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 7: Obviously had a great rookie year. Where are some things 719 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,759 Speaker 7: that you guys think that he could improve? Take it 720 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 7: to the next step. 721 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 8: And when it comes with CJ. And he's done a 722 00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 8: great job his rookie year. He's gotten a lot of 723 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 8: accolades for his rookie season. But the same for him, 724 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 8: where can we see him grow in this second year? 725 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:49,240 Speaker 8: It's his leadership right first and foremost. Continue to become 726 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 8: the leader that we want him to be. And it's 727 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 8: just in his play. It doesn't change for CJ for 728 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 8: anyone else. Can we get a little bit better each day. 729 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 8: There's no big grand thing for him. Just continue to 730 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,279 Speaker 8: get a little bit better. Right You'll see how much 731 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 8: better he got from his first day of camp last 732 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 8: year until our last game. How much better you saw 733 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 8: the growth of him.

Now it's you know, 738 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 8: you like say, there's a comfort level so you can 739 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:25,240 Speaker 8: be a little bit more vocal right to the entire team, 740 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,919 Speaker 8: not just speaking to the offense, but the team has 741 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 8: his ear and he can lean on that a little 742 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:34,000 Speaker 8: bit more. And just CJ doesn't have to change anything. 743 00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 8: CJ just has to be himself right And that's what 744 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 8: it's made CJ a special players just him being himself. 745 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 8: He's great family, raised the right way, does all all 746 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 8: things the right way.

So here's Will discussing moving from two 862 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,400 Speaker 2: hundred and forty eight pounds to two hundred and sixty 863 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:16,840 Speaker 2: three pounds and keeping his speed. 864 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm like, I think last year I was like 865 00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 9: two forty eight and about twelve we got to like 866 00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,560 Speaker 9: the Ravens game. I was just like, I just can't last, 867 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,600 Speaker 9: Like I feel like I was getting tossed around. So 868 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 9: I kind of boked up a little this off scene 869 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:29,960 Speaker 9: and tried to keep my speed. Well I did keep 870 00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 9: my speed, so I'm like two sixty three. 871 00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 7: Now I feel good. 872 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 9: Some people still say I don't even look big, so 873 00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:38,400 Speaker 9: I appreciate you for that. 874 00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:40,239 Speaker 1: That dude is the best man. I'm telling you. 875 00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:42,400 Speaker 2: I thought at the other day he had popped in 876 00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:44,600 Speaker 2: the studio he had to do some reads, and he 877 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 2: was in full uniform, and I just thought, man, he 878 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 2: looks bigger. And I mean, I know it's a new uniform, 879 00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 2: so sometimes new uniforms look a little different, fit a 880 00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:54,719 Speaker 2: little different. But I just it was like, man, he 881 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:56,719 Speaker 2: just looks bigger. Well, he just proved that he's up 882 00:43:56,719 --> 00:44:01,359 Speaker 2: to two sixty three and looks extremely good at two 883 00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:04,440 Speaker 2: sixty three. Like you said, kept his speed all right, 884 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:08,359 Speaker 2: Let's talk finishing, finishing plays, and finishing him quickly. Will 885 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:11,799 Speaker 2: had this to say when asked about the finishing part. 886 00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:14,759 Speaker 2: Not just getting to the quarterback, sacking the quarterback, not 887 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:18,200 Speaker 2: just getting close nearly getting a hit, No finishing and 888 00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 2: getting sacks. Here's what we'll have to say about finishing 889 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:21,360 Speaker 2: and doing it quickly. 890 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 7: Yeah. 891 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:25,200 Speaker 9: For me, I feel like that's the area I'm still 892 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 9: working on right now. Me and Coach Burck was actually 893 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:29,520 Speaker 9: just talking. I think that's one thing that I'm continuing 894 00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 9: to keep getting better at. Its just working on my 895 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 9: finish and working on my extension at the top of 896 00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:35,879 Speaker 9: my rush and turning that corner. That's something this whole 897 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:38,080 Speaker 9: offseason I've been working on, and I'm excited to just 898 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:40,799 Speaker 9: keep seeing the progress and just keep building at one 899 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:41,600 Speaker 9: percent each day. 900 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,480 Speaker 2: One of the things I've always loved about Will is 901 00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:46,600 Speaker 2: he is not going to rest on his laurels. He 902 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:51,280 Speaker 2: could have thirty five sacks, fifty TFLs, four pick sixes, 903 00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 2: and there would still be something he would want to 904 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 2: work on the following year. But when you come out 905 00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,279 Speaker 2: of your rookie year, there's obviously a lot to I watch, 906 00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:03,319 Speaker 2: a lot to learn from and getting yourself Betty for 907 00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 2: better for year two. Well, here's Will taking a really 908 00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:10,239 Speaker 2: self critical look at what he can do better in 909 00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:12,560 Speaker 2: year two and how he's different from year one to 910 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 2: year two. 911 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:16,360 Speaker 9: Yeah, I feel like my focus, my focus is just 912 00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:19,600 Speaker 9: less on what everybody has to say and more on God. 913 00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:22,799 Speaker 9: I think my biggest thing is knowing that, Like I 914 00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,120 Speaker 9: always tell y'all, like my approval comes from Him, you 915 00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:28,440 Speaker 9: know what I'm saying, And ultimately, everything that I achieve 916 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:30,440 Speaker 9: in his lifetime, I put it him first for it 917 00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:32,319 Speaker 9: because he's the reason why I'm here. And I think 918 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,600 Speaker 9: that's the difference. Like this year, Man, I'm like God, 919 00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 9: whether it's a good game, bad game, anything, like you're 920 00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:38,680 Speaker 9: gonna get the praise and glory for it. Like I'm 921 00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:40,399 Speaker 9: gonna let you use me however you want to use 922 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:41,600 Speaker 9: me each game. And I just want to be a 923 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 9: servant and be a leader and be a blessing to 924 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:45,439 Speaker 9: my teammates and help him out of anyw type of way. 925 00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:48,120 Speaker 9: So that's my whole, like, my whole thing coming into 926 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:49,960 Speaker 9: this year, man, is like God, everyone to use me. 927 00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:51,640 Speaker 9: I just want to be a blessing to this team. 928 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:54,839 Speaker 2: Of course, when the Texas lined up today with their 929 00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 2: first group, I don't think it's a surprise that Will 930 00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:01,720 Speaker 2: Anderson was on one side and Daniel Hunter on the other. 931 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:05,360 Speaker 2: Those two been talked about all offseason. Man, they're gonna 932 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:10,239 Speaker 2: wreak havoc on offensive lines. Here's Will on his relationship 933 00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:11,399 Speaker 2: with Danil Hunter. 934 00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:13,879 Speaker 7: Yeah. Man, I've been learning a lot from him. He's 935 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:14,400 Speaker 7: been great. 936 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:18,319 Speaker 9: I commend him a lot, just by the way he 937 00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:20,520 Speaker 9: works with his hands. He does a really good job 938 00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:22,839 Speaker 9: and that's everything that he tries to do for us. 939 00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:24,640 Speaker 7: Like we do a lot of handwork a lot. 940 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:26,560 Speaker 9: It's like karate a little bit, but like he's so 941 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,120 Speaker 9: good with his hands and he's been teaching me that 942 00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:29,840 Speaker 9: a lot. 943 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:32,360 Speaker 2: One of the things I think is really unique about 944 00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:34,680 Speaker 2: the NFL. And it's like this for every team. But 945 00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:36,799 Speaker 2: I think in college, you know you're coming with your 946 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:39,640 Speaker 2: recruiting class, you got to stay together for four years 947 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:42,560 Speaker 2: or three or whatever it might be. NFL, it is 948 00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:47,920 Speaker 2: truly a different team every single year, so there's gotta 949 00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,480 Speaker 2: be some bonding, some chemistry. Last year's team had a 950 00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:53,800 Speaker 2: special chemistry staying together. They had a lot of fun together. 951 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:57,920 Speaker 2: Here's Will talking about getting that chemistry for year two 952 00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 2: with this team, what they're doing to bond these guys together. 953 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:04,719 Speaker 1: With the twenty twenty four team, I would. 954 00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:06,879 Speaker 7: Just say the bonding and keep coming together, man. 955 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 9: I think we are further ahead of that than we 956 00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 9: were last year. Like even with all the new additions, 957 00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:16,000 Speaker 9: it just feels like we've been together for a while 958 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,000 Speaker 9: now with everybody that's been here, Like on all the 959 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,040 Speaker 9: new guys, it just seemed like we've been playing together 960 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:22,880 Speaker 9: for about a year or two now, and it just 961 00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 9: shows like this type of guys that we have in this. 962 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:25,759 Speaker 1: I love it. 963 00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:28,759 Speaker 2: That's the one thing with Will Anderson I said on 964 00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:30,480 Speaker 2: Draft night that everybody's gonna miss. 965 00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:33,840 Speaker 1: He is a true alpha. He is everything that you 966 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:34,719 Speaker 1: want in the locker room. 967 00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:36,759 Speaker 2: He's the guy that sits in the front row, he's 968 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 2: the guy paying attention, and he might be the best 969 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:41,880 Speaker 2: defensive player the see of Houston is seen in a while, 970 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:43,879 Speaker 2: and he is going to act like he is trying 971 00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:46,920 Speaker 2: to make the roster on every single rep.
