I am your host, John Harris, Football an 20 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: Elston side of the Reporter getting ready for a trip 21 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:29,680 Speaker 1: to Jacksonville this weekend to take on the Jaguires both 22 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,679 Speaker 1: teams one and six. The Colts were the one win 23 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 1: for the Jaguars. The Jaguars were the one win for 24 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: the Texans. But one team is going to get to 25 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: two and six. Now, there could be a tie, but 26 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: it's not likely. But one team is moving to two 27 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 1: and six, and let's hope it's the good guys. So 28 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: we'll start breaking this one down with JP Shatick, who 29 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: joins DPC two behind enemy sidelines.

Hot 36 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: Reads brought to you by Geico. They have great news. 37 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: I love to share great news, and it's that Geico 38 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: can save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance 39 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: and all it takes you is just fifteen minutes. That's 40 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: pretty nice. Geico giving you our hot reads, and our 41 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: first hot read today is going to be the injury 42 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: report that came out. It's been a while since the 43 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: Texans have been on the field for a practice in 44 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: which they had to report the injury report and good 45 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 1: news in a sense, not a whole lot to get 46 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: really upset about. One we definitely will have our eye on, 47 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: and that's Randall who did not participate on Wednesday due 48 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: to an illness. But the good news, Jordan Nakins and 49 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: Bradley Roby back as full participants today in practice. That's 50 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 1: a great thing, especially Bradley robe Now. The Jaguars, on 51 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: the other hand, a little bit of a banged up situation. 52 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: They had five guys not participate, to Code Allen, linebacker 53 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: Tyler Eiffert, to tight end Gardner Minshew, who we will 54 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: talk a little bit about in this show because he 55 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: will not play more than likely on Sunday. The Vino 56 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: Zigbo running back with a hamstring, Josiah Scott, a rookie 57 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: who it not injury related. A few in the limited 58 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: participation category, A couple of keep an eye on Miles 59 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: Jack Star linebacker Sidney Jones who had an interception against 60 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: the Texans, in addition to safety Gerard Wilson, who made 61 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: his first appearance back in Week five and actually made 62 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: a big difference on the Jaguars defense. So that is 63 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: your injury report for Wednesday. Let's get to our next 64 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: hot read. Now, the Texans have not put out an 65 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: official word on this transaction, but we've seen it all 66 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 1: over the social media. So I say this sources information 67 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: that's out there, just totally not confirmed by the Texans, 68 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 1: but it does appear as if the Texans are adding 69 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: Josh McCown, quarterback who has been around Sam Houston State 70 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 1: SMU before that. And I know Drew Dorty. Here's that 71 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: and it's like he gets Matt Either way, Josh McCown 72 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,720 Speaker 1: looking to join the Houston Texans. He lives, I guess 73 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: about an hour and a half to two hours away 74 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: from here. So really good situation for Josh McCown. And 75 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this, if you want an idea about 76 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 1: Josh McCown, you can hear me tell you this, and 77 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 1: I will tell you this, but I want you to 78 00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: go see it and hear it for yourself on Amazon 79 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: Prime if you have Amazon Prime. They had a show 80 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: and they have a show called All or Nothing, and 81 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: they follow a team for a full year. They started 82 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen with the Cardinals, when they did the Rams 83 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: in sixteen, they did the Cowboys in seventeen, they did 84 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: the team in eighteen I can't remember, and then for 85 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: the twenty nineteen season. Last season it was the Eagles 86 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: and Josh McCown joined the Eagles and for one of 87 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: the episodes, they followed Josh McCown on his kind of 88 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: weekly regiment and basically what he's doing was he was 89 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 1: flying back home on Friday like he would practice cry week, 90 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: fly back home on Friday, coaches kids, high school football, 91 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: hop back on the plane on Saturday morning, get back 92 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: to the hotel, and then be there to be the 93 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: backup quarterback for Carson Wentz. That episode is just that's 94 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: the kind of guy I want to have my organization, 95 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: no doubt. Then go to the last episode and that 96 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: is the wild Card playoff route. Carson Wentz gets hurt. 97 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: Jadeveon Clowney hits him wise on the ground, he has 98 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 1: a CONCUSSI has to come out. Josh McCown has to 99 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 1: go into the game. He's forty years old, he's never 100 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: played in the playoff game, and you're talking about a 101 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: guy that left it all on in the field. You 102 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: watch that episode, watch the whole thing. I'm talking all 103 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: the way through, beginning to end, and you will go, 104 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: I love that guy. I love him. And now he's 105 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 1: Houston text and I love that I just said that 106 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 1: the Mark vandermer in the area the other day. If 107 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: there was somebody that I wanted desperately to be with 108 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: this organization now and on into the future, it'd be 109 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 1: Josh McCown. Those two episodes absolutely sold me, sold me, 110 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 1: and I knew a lot about him before that, but man, 111 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: those two episodes locked it in all or nothing, Amazon Prime. 112 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: Go find the episode, the last one for sure. I 113 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: think the other one is episode five or episodes six, 114 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 1: there's eight of them. But go find those two episodes 115 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: where he is featured. You will love him and you 116 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: will love the fact that he is now a Texan. 117 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to our final hot read, and 118 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 1: that is going to be Texans Audio ju Bucks and 119 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: of course on Wednesday, that means Watt and Watson. See 120 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: that's how I keep it straight, Wednesday Watson, That's how 121 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: I get it That's how I keep it straight. I 122 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: know game week Wednesday means Shaw Watson and JJ Water 123 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: going to the podium. That helps me because I'm too 124 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: old to figure it out if you're gone the other way. 125 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: So let's hear from J. J. Watt, who was very 126 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: candid today. I think he always is. I think he 127 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: was even more show today, especially when he was asked, Hey, 128 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: how was the week off? It was pretty nice? Right 129 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: by week always helps with you know, giving yourself a 130 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: chance to give the body of little rest recovery, give 131 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: the mind of little rest recovery. So you come out 132 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: with energy at practice and it feels good to get 133 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: back to the field and get back to work, but 134 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 1: it doesn't change how you feel about the situation and 135 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: how urgent the need to get better extremely fast is. 136 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: Obviously where we are in terms of record isn't acceptable 137 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: and shouldn't be acceptable. I think that if you aren't 138 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: angry or upset or frustrated about it, then that's when 139 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: something's really wrong. I think JJ really encapsulated the way 140 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: I felt about this bye week, like it was good. 141 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: Needed a bye week to just kind of step back, 142 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: decompress a little bit. But at the end of the day. 143 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: Unfortunately still one and six, so you still have that 144 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: kind of gnawing in your gut, and hopefully that can 145 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: get that turned around. Now. Trade deadline was the loudest 146 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: non event seemingly in the NFL, and JJ said, regardless 147 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: of what happened or didn't happen, he's glad that it's over. 148 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: There are obviously a lot of rumors going around. There's 149 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 1: a lot of conversations that happened, whether it's within the 150 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 1: building between guys, whatever it is. So now that that's over, 151 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 1: there's a lot of obviously definitiveness to that situation, so 152 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 1: there's no more speculation, there's no more or distraction from 153 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 1: that standpoint, So now it is what it is and 154 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 1: you move forward. Obviously, the most noise was around Will Fuller. Now, 155 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: if you know Will, you know Will's not one to 156 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 1: step up to the microphone and tell you exactly how 157 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: it feels or any of that kind of thing. But 158 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 1: obviously there was a lot of noise around the Green 159 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 1: Bay Packers. So hopefully, and it was really the first 160 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: time I think Will has ever been in that situation before, 161 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 1: so hopefully he's able to look at that situation as 162 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: JJ was and say, hey, it's over, put it behind us. 163 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 1: Let's go win some football games with the organization we've 164 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,199 Speaker 1: been playing with for the last in Will's case, five years, 165 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: for JJ ten years. So that's that. I think coming 166 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: off a trade deadline is probably the biggest aspect of 167 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 1: what that trade deadline to me, because nobody's moved. But 168 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: do the rumors shake you up a little bit? Maybe? 169 00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: But we'll see. Now, JJ being a little bit of 170 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: an older vet and he knows that he's very upfront 171 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: and us about him, we'll get to some of the 172 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 1: cuts about that as well. He discussed we're doing what 173 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: he can to help some of the young guys, but 174 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: obviously those guys have got to step up and do 175 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 1: it for themselves too. It's trying to make sure guys 176 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: are in the right gaps, guys are tackling, guys are 177 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,839 Speaker 1: doing what they need to do to be successful on 178 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 1: the field. Obviously, where we are as a defense right 179 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 1: now is nowhere near where we want to be. So 180 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,199 Speaker 1: we all need to improve. We all need to get 181 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 1: better very very quickly. And so it's not necessarily I mean, yes, 182 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: it partially is a time for teaching because we clearly 183 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 1: got to be better than where we are. But I mean, 184 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: we're halfway through the NFL season here. You know it's 185 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,200 Speaker 1: not we got we gotta win. We don't got time 186 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 1: to be you know, working on you need to work 187 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 1: on the fundamentals and get better at the fundamentals. But like, 188 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 1: we gotta get going now. I mentioned a little earlier 189 00:10:55,880 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: about understanding how long you've been in a place, understand 190 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: standing how much more time you have in the league, 191 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: and how much your body you think can withstand. And 192 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,559 Speaker 1: I think JJ has a pretty good handle on that, 193 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: and he was talking about really kind of everything all told. 194 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:15,839 Speaker 1: Look in the trade deadline going on your team at 195 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: one and six, if you have a new GM, a 196 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 1: new coach next year, his body's taking a lot of pounding. 197 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: He said, Look, I'm running out of time. I want 198 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 1: to win a championship and I'd like to do it now. 199 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: I'm not really here for a rebuild. We win our 200 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: first ever division in our first ever playoff game in 201 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 1: my first year. The second year, we go twelve and four, 202 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: and you think that life's gonna be great, and it's 203 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: you're just gonna keep getting better and better, and then 204 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 1: you know, you go two and fourteen, and the reality 205 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: of the business side of the NFL and the reality 206 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 1: of all the things that come along with it hit 207 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: you in the face and you realize that, oh, this 208 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 1: isn't all roses all the time. And then you look 209 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 1: at the last you know, seven years or so, and yeah, 210 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 1: we've won some division championships and that's great, but that's 211 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: not the goal. Like that, that's not the goal. And 212 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: your goal can't be to make the playoffs. Your goal 213 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 1: can't be to win one or two playoff games. If 214 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 1: your goal is not to win the Super Bowl and 215 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 1: your goal is not to do everything in your power 216 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: to make that happen and make your organization in the 217 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: best possible situation for that, then that's not going to happen. So, um, 218 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: that is my goal, and that's that's why the work 219 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 1: goes in. That's why fought back from all these injuries, 220 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: because that's the goal and that's what I'm still working 221 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: towards them. And that one sense I think JJ is 222 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: like a lot of us Houstonians. We want that one 223 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: opportunity just now. We'd like more, obviously, but we want 224 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: that opportunity to win a championship. Houston has always been 225 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: a great football city. It's never had a professional football championship. 226 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 1: Should it never Since it became an NFL franchise, it 227 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: has never won a championship. It did win as AFL. 228 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: We all want to be here, we all want to 229 00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: be around the organization when it does happen. Let's hope 230 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:01,959 Speaker 1: it does happen. I'm sure there are a lot of 231 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: people that lived in Philly always wondering when it was 232 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 1: gonna happen. While twenty seventeen it did happen. Hopefully that's 233 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: going to happen, and I think we all want to 234 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: see it happen. With JJ out on the field, there's 235 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: no doubt. Now one of the big reasons for a 236 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: team winning a championship is going to be because the 237 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: quarterback is DeShawn Watson. So let's do a little audio 238 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 1: jukebox movement and come up d W four. And he 239 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 1: was asked to day about the roster going forward and 240 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 1: whether he really wanted to be involved with that or not. 241 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 1: I want to be involved in the process of being 242 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:42,199 Speaker 1: the you know, franchise quarterback. You know what the organization 243 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: is that, you know what the you know what. We 244 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: want to be here exactly the foundation and the people 245 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: that's going to be you know, running this team in 246 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: this organization along with the players, and you know, myself 247 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 1: being a quarterback. So of course I want to you know, 248 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,199 Speaker 1: make sure that you know, we all on the same page, 249 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: good energy and things like that, we're clicking the right way. 250 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, of course you're gonna hear rumors 251 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 1: and things like that, So I just you know, stay 252 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: focused on my task and what I can do and 253 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: communicating with people. But you know, I'm just here, you know, 254 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 1: just trying to find ways to win games and try 255 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 1: to turn the season around. And and then you know 256 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 1: the whole coaching changing and new GM and things like that. 257 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: Of course, you know, I want to be involved, but 258 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: right now, my main focus is trying to turn the 259 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 1: season around and try to get some wins and trying 260 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: to make a push. Definitely want to focus on that. Now. 261 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: I've heard this phrase used in Mark and I talked 262 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: about this. John mcclan and I talked about this, and 263 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: we're on agreement in this. This does not to me 264 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: look like a rebuild. Does it need some renovation, yes, no, 265 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 1: doubt wise, teams want of six. Does it need to 266 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: be a complete teardown and rebuild, and you got the 267 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: Shawn Watson, Layman thompsone tightest iron, that's all you have, 268 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: and everybody else you just you know, bleep can and 269 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 1: move on from No, you don't need to do that. 270 00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: I think this is a team that does not have 271 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: re build on it, but it does have a little 272 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 1: bit of renovation. And think about a nice house that 273 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: gets renovated. You go, wow, this is better than it 274 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: was before. Sean said the same thing. Doesn't think this 275 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: is a rebuild. I don't review it as a rebuilding. 276 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 1: I don't even think, you know, because every years a 277 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 1: new year, I mean it's a new team. People are 278 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 1: going in and out, people are getting traded, people are 279 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 1: going in telling different contrasts and free agency, coaches changes 280 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 1: all types of different things. So you know, it's just 281 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 1: a stepping someone that we're just you know, figuring out, 282 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 1: you know, the right pieces to the puzzle. And every 283 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: year every team is doing that. Even if you have 284 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: you know, teams that are you know, sitting here undefeated, 285 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: are only one loss. You know, they're still trying to 286 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 1: make sure there's a roster and and things like that 287 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: is churning and going in the right direction. So you 288 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 1: just got to continue to just take it one day 289 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 1: at a time, one step at a time, and figure out. Yeah, 290 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 1: I think there's any questions. Sean has a really good 291 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: handle on what's really going on, and he's never been 292 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: in a situation before. I think, I said the other night, 293 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: he had there are more losses this year, but I 294 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: think he's ever had in his high school and college 295 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 1: careers combined. So how do you deal with that? I 296 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: think it's pretty tough. I don't think there's any doubt 297 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 1: about that now. He was asked about this particular season. Look, 298 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: this team is won in six, but there have been 299 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: times that DeShawn has played exceptionally well, and the majority 300 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: of the time he has played very well. He was asked, 301 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: is this the best you've ever played as far as 302 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 1: just being the quarterback and being efficient? I think this 303 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: is the best I've felt as far as just you know, 304 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 1: getting the ball out, you know, staying ahead of the 305 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: change and change, being able to distribute the ball, and 306 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 1: just kind of getting around and just to feel so honestly, 307 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: these these are the best numbers I've I've had of 308 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 1: my career. Who knows what my rookie year would have 309 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: been likely have got her. But yes, I felt, you know, 310 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 1: this is the best football I've been playing for a while. 311 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: It's pretty obvious when you see him out on the 312 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: field that he is much more comfortable. I mentioned this 313 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: to Drew anybody who asked. I think there are two 314 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 1: things that really have stood out to me. Number One, 315 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: thrown from the pocket. His pocket acumen is just that 316 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 1: much better. I mean, he is throwing some dimes now, 317 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 1: he's getting protected better, not always, but much better than 318 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: it's been in the past. The second thing I would 319 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 1: say is that his decision making. It's clear the game 320 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:23,120 Speaker 1: is slowing down for him, It's very clear. And those 321 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: two things continue. Team's gonna win some games. Just gotta 322 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: get the other side of the ball to step up 323 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 1: alongside JJ Watt and then you're gonna have something. And 324 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 1: maybe to get the other side of the ball, maybe 325 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: you need some more renovation as to what's there, or 326 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: maybe that side of the ball starts to step up 327 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: and make some plays, find some confidence and realize they 328 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 1: can do some things that maybe other people don't think 329 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: it could. But we find all of that out over 330 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 1: the last nine weeks of the twenty football season and 331 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: hopefully there is a beyond. But I just think over 332 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: these next nine weeks, we just want to see what 333 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:01,159 Speaker 1: this team can do.

Seems like just a few 442 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: weeks ago we were chatting and here we are again 443 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 1: after the bye, so one in six. Both these teams 444 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 1: not exactly where they want to be. What about the 445 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: Jags heading into the second half of the season. This 446 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 1: is usually where teams like to reset over the bye. 447 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:35,399 Speaker 1: What are the Jags talking about? No, I mean, there's 448 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 1: been a lot of things to talk about over the 449 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 1: last week or so. Yes, it has not been that 450 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 1: long since we last spoken. It's good to be back 451 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 1: with you again. Quarterback, obviouslyees the big topic around here 452 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 1: after a six game losing skid going into the bye week. 453 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 1: It was announced around Tuesday or Wednesday that Gardner Minshew 454 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: apparently had a couple of small breaks in the thumb 455 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: and his throwing hand that might have happened in the 456 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 1: Houston game a few weeks ago and he's trying to 457 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,159 Speaker 1: play through it. They found out about it after the 458 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 1: Chargers game, and now it sounds like it's going to 459 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: be Jake Luton as the starting quarterback this week. A 460 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 1: six round rookie out of Oregon State, Mike Glennon is 461 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,640 Speaker 1: still on the roster. Of course, he's a veteran quarterback 462 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 1: in this league, has some starting time, but not a 463 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 1: lot of it. But hearing Doug Morone talk this week, 464 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,879 Speaker 1: sounds like Luton's going to get his opportunities, certainly on 465 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,159 Speaker 1: the practice field this week to get those reps, and 466 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: they just want to see him in live game action. 467 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 1: They haven't been able to do that without a preseason. 468 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: So when the quarterback goes down, that is the number 469 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 1: one and the biggest talking point this week for the Jaguars. 470 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 1: We can delve into the defense all we want a 471 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,879 Speaker 1: little bit later. They had their own issues, but Gardner 472 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: Minshew will not play this week and that's priority number one. Yeah, 473 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: a little bit of a surprise heading into this week 474 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 1: as the Texans and the Jaguars face off for the 475 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: second time this season. So tell me a little bit 476 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: about Jake Luton. Obviously the Jaguars drafted him, but we're 477 00:25:58,080 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 1: hoping that Minshew was going to be the guy for 478 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,120 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty season. What do they like about Luton's 479 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 1: skill set? What do they hope that he brings to 480 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,160 Speaker 1: this offense. Well, I'll say this in training camp this year, 481 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 1: the few times we were out there to watch some 482 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,639 Speaker 1: of those open practices, he did turn some heads with 483 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: his ability to push the ball down the field and 484 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 1: his arm strength. He's a tall guy, six foot six, 485 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 1: so he can see over everything. And he took that 486 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:26,199 Speaker 1: sixth year of eligibility that the NCAA granted him at 487 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: Oregon State and used it to his advantage last year 488 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: twenty eight touchdowns only three interceptions a year ago for 489 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 1: Oregon State. And there are a lot of folks out 490 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 1: there on the West coast that said, hey, this guy 491 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 1: will look out for Luton. He has the ability to 492 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: keep up at least in the NFL. Now, as I said, 493 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 1: we haven't seen him in a live game situation at all, 494 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 1: and that's what Doug Morone is concerned about. You know, 495 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 1: if all of a sudden, the lights come on and 496 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 1: here comes JJ Watt staring at you from the other side, 497 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 1: how will you react. You just don't know when it's 498 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: until it's real, and you know, if he performs well, fantastic. 499 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: If not, if things go spiral out of control quickly, 500 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 1: then Glennon, I think, will be at there, ready to 501 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 1: jump in there if needed. But they're confident in Luton. 502 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: They like his ability in the classroom and everything, the 503 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,359 Speaker 1: way he's moved around college football a few different places 504 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,679 Speaker 1: in his career. Much like Gardner Minshew. He knows this offense, 505 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: knows it pretty well. I'm curious how different it looks though, 506 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 1: with Luton and his ability to get the ball a 507 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: little further down the field consistently. We think then Gardner 508 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,400 Speaker 1: Minshew did kind of got both ends of the spectrum 509 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: there with the veteran and Glennon, and then the rookie 510 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 1: and Luton, so it'd be interesting to see. But that 511 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 1: being said, you've got a rookie quarterback under center. Might 512 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 1: we see more of James Robinson than we haven't in 513 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: weeks past. Maybe, But if you're going to throw the 514 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: rookie quarterback out there to throw it around, you throw 515 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 1: the rookie quarterback out there to throw it around. In 516 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 1: my opinion, so you know, that is a young quarterback's 517 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: best friend as a running game, and when they have 518 00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 1: been able to run and get it done early in 519 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: the game, James Robinson stepped out and played very well. 520 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 1: That's been a real bright spot for this Jags offense 521 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 1: this year. Though they haven't gone to the well a 522 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:12,120 Speaker 1: lot at times. They've been down in games, down lat 523 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 1: in games where they've had to abandon the run a 524 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: lot of times to get back in it. But if 525 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 1: they can establish it early, mix it in the game 526 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 1: plan with Luton maybe throwing it around some, then I 527 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: think that's the most effective way to yes, run the football, 528 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 1: but also help your young quarterback at the same time 529 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 1: so he's not facing third and forever type situation and 530 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:37,160 Speaker 1: getting sacked. Of course, yes, the sacks. Let's get into 531 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 1: our next Gen stat presented by AWS, James Robinson is 532 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 1: second in the NFL among rookies in rushing yards. He's 533 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 1: rushed for four hundred and eighty one yards, that second 534 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 1: only to the Chiefs rookie Clyde Edwards Hilaire. It's also 535 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 1: scored for rushing touchdowns and two scores as well. What's 536 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 1: made him so hard to defend? An undrafted running back 537 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: usually doesn't see this type of success that he has, 538 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: And even though the jags have been losing, it seems 539 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 1: like Robinson's been doing some nice things for that offense. 540 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: You know, I don't remember many times where he's lost yardage. 541 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 1: You know, he always is at the line of scrimmage 542 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: and then forward, and he's decisive in the way he 543 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 1: runs too. There's no pitter patting of the feet back 544 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 1: there in decisiveness. He finds a hole, he makes one cut, 545 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: he goes downhill. He's not afraid to get physical if 546 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: he needs to on the second level, and that's gone 547 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 1: pretty well for him this year. So that's really been 548 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 1: why he's been so successful. His decisiveness, his ability to cut, physicality. 549 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: I don't know if he has the home run from 550 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 1: forty to sixty yards for a touchdown type of speed 551 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 1: down the field. But if you need anywhere between five 552 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 1: and fifteen that can keep an offense moving in the NFL, 553 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: that's what he's done, all right. I know you then 554 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 1: I spoke over the off season about some of these rookies, 555 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 1: and I know you've talked about Labisca Chenolt. You mentioned 556 00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 1: him the first time these two teams played, and in 557 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 1: Week five he led the Jags in receiving yards against 558 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: the Texans. So how much has his role in the 559 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 1: offense sort of evolved as he's become a little bit 560 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: more comfortable. Now he's gonna have to adjust to a 561 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: new quarterback, obviously, but tell me a little bit about 562 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 1: how he sort of progressed in his rookie year. Well, 563 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: I'll say this deep he's had at least as a 564 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 1: late had a little bit of a hamstring issue, So 565 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 1: he hasn't really been used as much, I believe as 566 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 1: he was earlier in the year. Early in the season, 567 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: they're using him and jet sweeps and direct snaps in 568 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: the wildcat and chin alts running between the tackles and 569 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 1: here we go. As a running back, right, he was 570 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 1: doing all those different things they've toned that back. It 571 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: feels like a little bit over the last few weeks 572 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 1: with him. I believe it's just because of that little 573 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 1: nagging and there's some times where he hasn't practiced and 574 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,040 Speaker 1: then he's been able to go out and play on Sunday, 575 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 1: so less has maybe been a little bit more. Maybe 576 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 1: the bye week will help in that regard this week. 577 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 1: And yes, another weapon for Luton to have to take 578 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 1: a little bit of the heat off of him would 579 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 1: be very nice. But another very happy with what Chenault 580 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 1: could be as we move along down the line. It's 581 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: just a matter of keeping him healthy, which yes, it 582 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 1: was an issue at Colorado as well. He had some 583 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 1: injury concerns back there in his time in college. Let's 584 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,719 Speaker 1: hope it doesn't become a nagging thing here. So far 585 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 1: has been able to be out there most every time. Well, then, 586 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 1: obviously let's switch gears and talk about DJ Chark because 587 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 1: he's the number one target there for that offense. So 588 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 1: how much does it help having Luton having Chark there 589 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: to throw to as a top target. I know a 590 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: lot of opposing defenses no to focus on Chark, but 591 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 1: he still finds a way to get open, doesn't he Yeah, 592 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 1: a big guy finding a way to find a space 593 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 1: and get open, and he can out jump if you 594 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: throw it up down the field as well. There's been 595 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 1: some frustration lately. I think DJ would tell you, I 596 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 1: know Gardner would tell you they were having some trouble 597 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 1: hooking up the last couple of weeks before the bye week, 598 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 1: and some of that frustration was starting to boil over 599 00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 1: in interviews and things like that, which is probably not 600 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 1: the way to I think they've calmed things down. Those 601 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 1: two guys are great competitors, and the last time I 602 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 1: was in the locker room, it's been a while, but 603 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: the last time I was in there, they had lockers 604 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: right next to each other. So I think that relationship 605 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: is still good now. With Luton, yes, it's a I 606 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 1: don't know if it's a safety blanket of sorts, but 607 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 1: he is a guy you can throw the ball up 608 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 1: to and you have a pretty good shot of coming 609 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 1: down with a reception down the field if you need 610 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 1: to get one of those so charts. A guy who 611 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 1: is coming off Pro Bowl hasn't had exceptional numbers this year, 612 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 1: but he is certainly a guy you can rely on. 613 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 1: And I think this organization would like to rely on 614 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 1: him for years to come. I believe deeply he's going 615 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 1: to be the next guy paid around here whenever the 616 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 1: season is over. I think you opened up the checkbook 617 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 1: and give it to him. Well, let's talk about that 618 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 1: Jags defense, shall we. They've, like you've said aloud, over 619 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 1: thirty points in the last six losses that they've had. 620 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: And I know the struggle has been real with the 621 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 1: loss of some of their big leaders up front, which 622 00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: the Jags will face a little bit later when they 623 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 1: face the Ravens. But you know, who are some of 624 00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 1: the key players that they hope to get back. I 625 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 1: know there's also some injuries. They've been banged up, but 626 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: with the bye week and a little bit of rest, 627 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 1: who are some guys that they're hoping can sort of 628 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 1: come back and help that defense. Well. Doug Morone earlier 629 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 1: this week said that Miles Jack should be back. He's 630 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 1: slated to get back on the field. He's had an 631 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 1: ankle issue last couple of weeks, and when he isn't 632 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: out there, it really changes the way they operate on defense. 633 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 1: He's the guy that can go make plays for you 634 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: on the week side. He's stepped out this year into 635 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 1: that new role that has played very well when he's 636 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 1: been healthy and was leading the team in tackles and 637 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: doing all that stuff and really playing at a pro 638 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 1: bowl level the first three four weeks of the season, 639 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 1: but then the injury concerns kind of started there. Jared Wilson, 640 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 1: on the back end at free safety, is also slated 641 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 1: to be back. He's been battling an injury the last 642 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. Josh Allens had some injury stuff earlier 643 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 1: in the year. He's been back out there, but he 644 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:56,920 Speaker 1: doesn't have the big numbers that a lot of folks 645 00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 1: I think we're expecting out of him. They're still hoping 646 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: for Chase On to develop as a pass rusher, the 647 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:05,320 Speaker 1: first round draft pick out of LSU. It's taken a 648 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 1: little bit longer, I think than some fans would have liked, 649 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:09,880 Speaker 1: but it's going to come at some point. But yes, 650 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 1: you're right, it is an injury issue for this Jags defense, 651 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 1: especially on the back end. The corner spot has been 652 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: banged up a good bit. Sidney Jones is hurt, Trey 653 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 1: Herndon's had moments. They've had a lot of guys roll 654 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 1: in and out of that secondary, and that's what they're 655 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: gonna have to go with this week. Now. The question 656 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 1: will be, at what point, you know, in the season, 657 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,399 Speaker 1: do they start putting the younger guys in to see 658 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:37,840 Speaker 1: what they have. A guy like Daniel Thomas, does he 659 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,800 Speaker 1: getting more time at safety. He's a rookie out of Auburn. 660 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 1: He had a block punt and a return for a 661 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 1: touchdown in the game on special teams against the Chargers 662 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 1: a couple weeks ago. But the times he's been on 663 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: the field on defense, he's played very well. He played 664 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 1: half a game a few weeks ago in relief somebody 665 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 1: got hurt and he led the team and tackles for 666 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,760 Speaker 1: the day and only a half of football playing strong safety, 667 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 1: so he can come in and play the run. I'm 668 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:03,280 Speaker 1: curious how that's going to go because there's no magic 669 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 1: fix for this thing. There's nobody going to come in 670 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,680 Speaker 1: here the trade deadline or anything and fix this defense. 671 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 1: It's those guys on the field. It is a young, 672 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 1: banged up football team on the defensive side. Certainly, can 673 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 1: they figure it out, rally some things together and stop 674 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: this string of thirty point games? I think that's the 675 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:24,120 Speaker 1: first thing you have to do before you can move forward. 676 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 1: We know, even if we look at some of the numbers, 677 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 1: I know, turnover differentials the number that we look at 678 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 1: quite a bit around here, both teams are at minus 679 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 1: for the Jags and the Texans. But if you dig 680 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,920 Speaker 1: a little deeper, the jag Wars have had six interceptions. 681 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 1: Now they've turned the ball over a number of times too, 682 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 1: But how surprising or encouraging is it that they've had 683 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 1: so many picks with such a young secondary. Yeah, you know, 684 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 1: there's been a lot of turn over there, as we 685 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,439 Speaker 1: just mentioned, so different guys stepping up and making plays 686 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:52,799 Speaker 1: at different times. Jared Wilson was out early this year 687 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: and I are scheduled return. He came back first game back, 688 00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 1: gets an interception. Sydney Jones, a guy that a lot 689 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: of people didn't really know about it trading camp. He 690 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 1: has a pick in that same game. So really different 691 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 1: guys getting their hands on the football that you might 692 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 1: not expect. Joe Schobert off a tip ball a couple 693 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 1: of weeks ago, made a play out of deflection on 694 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:16,279 Speaker 1: an interception late in the game. But unfortunately a lot 695 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 1: of times those turnovers have not really turned into points 696 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:23,400 Speaker 1: for this team a lot of times. So when the 697 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 1: defense finally does get takeaways, the offense has not been 698 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 1: able to push it in the end zone. And a 699 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:32,239 Speaker 1: lot of times with the kicking situation around here, they've 700 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 1: missed fuel goal points too. So they hopefully have settled 701 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 1: that down. They can use some more of those, But 702 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 1: it's just a matter of you can't really put your 703 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,400 Speaker 1: finger on who, or why or how it's happening some 704 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 1: weeks because different guys have stepped up and made plays 705 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 1: on defense in key moments to get some of those 706 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,919 Speaker 1: interceptions and takeaways. All right, that's some great stuff there 707 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:55,759 Speaker 1: from our good pal JP Shaddick and of course DP 708 00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:59,839 Speaker 1: City coming up next, Let's go with our men behind them, 709 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 1: Mike's Little Frank Frangie and Mark Vandermen next right here 710 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:10,399 Speaker 1: on Texans All Access.

And a brand new quarterback 828 00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:31,200 Speaker 1: who's never taken a snap before playing in the Houston, Texas. 829 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:33,359 Speaker 1: Other than that, it's quiet around here. Mark, all's good. 830 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:36,320 Speaker 1: What's the fan turnout going to be like at the 831 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 1: game formerly known as the world's largest outdoor cocktail party. Yeah, 832 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:44,400 Speaker 1: here's what's interesting. There's gonna between eighteen and twenty thousand 833 00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 1: at the game, which obviously the game normally sells at 834 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:48,600 Speaker 1: eighty five thousand. They bring in extra seats, as you know, 835 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:52,759 Speaker 1: it's gonna be between eighteen and twenty thousand seating. But 836 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,759 Speaker 1: I'm telling and some of the lots around the stadium, Mark, 837 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:59,200 Speaker 1: or the city lots are not available for tailgating, but 838 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:02,480 Speaker 1: all the private lots, all the commercial lots around there are, 839 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,480 Speaker 1: I'm told they're all sold out. So it's going to 840 00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 1: be a crazy cocktail party. I believe it's my guest now, 841 00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:12,279 Speaker 1: a crazy cocktail party outside of the stadium, and then 842 00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:14,920 Speaker 1: once the game begins, about eighteen to twenty thousand inside. 843 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:19,000 Speaker 1: Surreal times, Brother as ever, and certainly evidenced by that game, 844 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:22,640 Speaker 1: how the crowd's been for the Jaguar games. You know, 845 00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:26,120 Speaker 1: they said about they can sell about seventeen thousand. It's 846 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 1: probably close to that mark, maybe a little fewer, you know, 847 00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 1: people aren't quite sure what to do. It looks weird. 848 00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 1: It looks weird to all of us. But they can 849 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:36,719 Speaker 1: have seventeen thousand, and I think that's about what they're 850 00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:39,879 Speaker 1: getting spread out throughout the stadium, just like all these 851 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:43,319 Speaker 1: college and pro games where they're not selling, whether they're 852 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:46,200 Speaker 1: they're allowing just so many people. I think you'll get 853 00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:48,840 Speaker 1: about to so many people. So fifteen to seventeen thousand 854 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:51,640 Speaker 1: is I think what'll be here on something? What level 855 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:53,759 Speaker 1: of concern do you have for the field conditions on 856 00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 1: Sunday following the Florida Georgia game. You know, the bad 857 00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,319 Speaker 1: news is they've not done this very often, if at all, 858 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:02,359 Speaker 1: so you're playing back to back games. But two things, 859 00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:05,239 Speaker 1: The field crew here is really good. The field here 860 00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:07,839 Speaker 1: is really good, and they are doing that now. It's 861 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:10,480 Speaker 1: on places Pittsburgh does it on a regular basis. The 862 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:13,320 Speaker 1: pitt Panthers and the Steelers both play home games on 863 00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:15,440 Speaker 1: that field, and they found a way with drainage and 864 00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,919 Speaker 1: the way they've built it. I could get it ready, Mark, 865 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:19,400 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to see them do that on a 866 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,040 Speaker 1: regular basis. I really wouldn't, and I don't think you'll 867 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:23,920 Speaker 1: see that I wouldn't want to see it over the 868 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:25,680 Speaker 1: course of the year like they do in Pittsburgh. It's 869 00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:28,719 Speaker 1: some other cities, Miami among them. Miami, Pittsburgh. A few 870 00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 1: cities do that. But for one game. I think it'll 871 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,600 Speaker 1: be fine. They're well aware of what they're doing. They've 872 00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 1: been ahead of this thing. I think the field, the 873 00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:38,279 Speaker 1: maintenance crew here is very good and it's a great field. 874 00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:41,200 Speaker 1: It's a great draining field. It's it's great turf. So 875 00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:43,640 Speaker 1: I don't I don't sense the weather's been It's gonna 876 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:45,640 Speaker 1: rain some, but weather has been pretty good for the 877 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:47,640 Speaker 1: most part, so I don't sense that's going to be 878 00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:50,480 Speaker 1: a big deal. Frank Franzie, voice of the Jaguars, joining us, 879 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,120 Speaker 1: tell us about the mystery man, Jake Luton. What do 880 00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 1: you think we're gonna see on Sunday? Boy, It's interesting, 881 00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:58,279 Speaker 1: isn't it. Mark. I don't think anybody knows remember now 882 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:01,279 Speaker 1: like like you, like the rest of us, we can't 883 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:03,280 Speaker 1: see as much of practice as we saw in the past. 884 00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:05,880 Speaker 1: We can't spend time in the locker room like we 885 00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:08,359 Speaker 1: did in the past getting to know these guys. I'm 886 00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:10,719 Speaker 1: not on planes, we're not traveling, We're doing our road 887 00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 1: games remotely so so in past years I could have 888 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:16,600 Speaker 1: told you all about my gut, what he's like, what 889 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,480 Speaker 1: he's like on the plane, what he's like at the hotel, 890 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,360 Speaker 1: what I've seen in practice, there isn't as much as that. 891 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:24,480 Speaker 1: What I will tell you is this, they really like him. 892 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 1: He is some of the things they weren't sure Gardner 893 00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 1: would ever have. Gardner Minshew's a gamer, and he's a 894 00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:31,239 Speaker 1: tough nosed guy, and he's one of the most well 895 00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 1: liked guys that come around here in a long time. 896 00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:35,640 Speaker 1: Everybody kind of caught up in the Minshew mania and 897 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:38,680 Speaker 1: the George and the aviators and the mustache. But apart 898 00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:40,320 Speaker 1: from all that, he was a good dude and is 899 00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:42,120 Speaker 1: a good dude, and hopefully he'll get healthy to be 900 00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:45,000 Speaker 1: back soon. But he was always going to be challenged 901 00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:46,880 Speaker 1: from the standpoint that he doesn't have a plus arm, 902 00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:48,719 Speaker 1: and he's not a big guy. He's a six feet 903 00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:52,399 Speaker 1: tall guy. Mark, as you know, Luton is six six 904 00:47:52,920 --> 00:47:54,800 Speaker 1: and can really spend it now. So this is a 905 00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:58,040 Speaker 1: big guy with a big arm, so relatively athletic. So 906 00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:01,840 Speaker 1: I think all the measurables are there. The question is 907 00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:03,560 Speaker 1: how will he play when the lights are on and 908 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 1: it's an NFL game. Remember, he's never played in an 909 00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:09,439 Speaker 1: NFL uniform mark, not a preseason game, not a mop 910 00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 1: up duty. He's never played a football game wearing an 911 00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:14,840 Speaker 1: NFL not even one play because there was no preseason. 912 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:17,719 Speaker 1: So your guess is as good as mine. They like him, 913 00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:19,880 Speaker 1: he's got the measurables. We'll see how we played when 914 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:22,120 Speaker 1: the lights are on if it weren't for the injury. 915 00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 1: Is Menshoe still play playing or is it time to 916 00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:29,680 Speaker 1: reevaluate or just evaluate what you have on the roster 917 00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:31,919 Speaker 1: going into twenty twenty one? What do you think there? 918 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:34,920 Speaker 1: You know, there was no conversation about that. There was 919 00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:37,960 Speaker 1: no conversation that they were anywhere close to moving on 920 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:41,319 Speaker 1: to the next guy. Now, logic tells you if he's 921 00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:43,640 Speaker 1: not playing at a great level, and Gardner was playing okay, 922 00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:47,040 Speaker 1: he wasn't playing badly, he wasn't playing great. Logic tells 923 00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:49,360 Speaker 1: you you're one and six, even if he had not 924 00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 1: gotten hurt. When you get to if you wind up 925 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:53,680 Speaker 1: one and seven or one in eight or whatever, and 926 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,279 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, your season becomes one of evaluation. 927 00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:58,200 Speaker 1: Do you now look at a lot of guys at 928 00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:01,120 Speaker 1: a lot of spots, including quarterbacks, So logic would tell 929 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:04,719 Speaker 1: you there was a possibility that down the road, even 930 00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:06,759 Speaker 1: if Gardner hadn't had gotten injured, they might have taken 931 00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:08,520 Speaker 1: a look see Jake Luke, because again he is the 932 00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:10,920 Speaker 1: guy they really liked. They think he's very mature. But 933 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:13,640 Speaker 1: marked to your question, there have been no conversation about that. 934 00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:16,399 Speaker 1: There had been no conversation about pulling the quarterback until 935 00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:18,239 Speaker 1: the thumb injury kind of reared it. Said this past 936 00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:21,239 Speaker 1: week Frank Frangie, voice of the Jaguars, joining us. Okay, 937 00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:25,320 Speaker 1: what do the Jaguars do well offensively that the Texans 938 00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:28,400 Speaker 1: need to be concerned with. I think everybody knows. The 939 00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:30,520 Speaker 1: one thing they found is this running back Mark He 940 00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:33,960 Speaker 1: is really good. Man, James Robinson, I will tell you 941 00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:37,200 Speaker 1: we have of the things Jet the Jaguars had not 942 00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:40,200 Speaker 1: had here, They've had good running backs. Fred Taylor's one 943 00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:42,520 Speaker 1: of the best backs in league history. In my opinion, 944 00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:43,719 Speaker 1: I think he should be in the Hall of Fame, 945 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:45,759 Speaker 1: and I hope he gets there one day. Ris Jones 946 00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:47,640 Speaker 1: drew led the league in rushing one year and was 947 00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:50,880 Speaker 1: a terrific back for this team. I think Leonard Fournette 948 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,279 Speaker 1: had some good moments and Natron means in the very 949 00:49:53,320 --> 00:49:55,480 Speaker 1: early years led him to an AFC championship games. Of 950 00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:57,759 Speaker 1: all the things they haven't had here, we've had good 951 00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:01,239 Speaker 1: running backs, like really good running backs. And opinion, mark 952 00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:05,000 Speaker 1: this guy's right there to fact to believe that this 953 00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:08,080 Speaker 1: guy never got draft, was not drafted, was an unsigned 954 00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:11,239 Speaker 1: free agent out of Illinois State. He is mature, he 955 00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:14,399 Speaker 1: sees the holes every We always like to compare guys 956 00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:17,239 Speaker 1: running styles, right, and let me be clear about this. 957 00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:19,719 Speaker 1: I'm talking about styles, not accomplishments. Because when you start 958 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:21,480 Speaker 1: comparing a new guy to a guy a great of 959 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:24,000 Speaker 1: years gone by, someone says Franjie said he was as 960 00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 1: good as so and so I'm not saying that. But 961 00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:29,400 Speaker 1: in terms of running styles, his running style is Emmon Smith. 962 00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:32,359 Speaker 1: He's not the fastest guy, he's not the biggest guy, 963 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:35,359 Speaker 1: but he never misses a hole and he turns one 964 00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 1: yard runs into four yard runs, catches the ball out 965 00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:40,439 Speaker 1: of the backfield. So the best part of this team, 966 00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:42,160 Speaker 1: in my opinion, James Robinson. I think it's been their 967 00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:45,759 Speaker 1: best offensive player. The other thing is if Jake gets 968 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:47,960 Speaker 1: the ball out and if he throws accurately, and we 969 00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:50,400 Speaker 1: don't know that yet. Other receivers are pretty good. The 970 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 1: DJ Chark is going to be a good receiver in 971 00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:55,520 Speaker 1: the league. The rookie Lewisca Chanal will as well. So 972 00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:58,359 Speaker 1: some good receiver. Has been a really good running back, Mark, 973 00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:00,799 Speaker 1: I really like this back, Chief Robbins. Yeah, I think 974 00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:03,880 Speaker 1: Chanult is a nice weapon, and I think a lot 975 00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:05,640 Speaker 1: of teams are going to be looking for guys like that. 976 00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:07,960 Speaker 1: What about defensively, Frank, what do you see it on 977 00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:09,839 Speaker 1: that side of the football. I know it hasn't gotten great, 978 00:51:09,920 --> 00:51:12,880 Speaker 1: but what do they do well? And they've really struggled. 979 00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:16,000 Speaker 1: They really struggled defensively in all parts. Miles Jack comes back. 980 00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:18,760 Speaker 1: He's been their best defender. He was the middle linebacker 981 00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:20,720 Speaker 1: for a few years and that's not his natural position. 982 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:22,279 Speaker 1: He's more of a week side guy where he can 983 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:24,759 Speaker 1: just fly and go to the ball. And he was 984 00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:27,319 Speaker 1: playing really well before he got injured, missed a few games, 985 00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:30,200 Speaker 1: came back, got hurt again. But now he's completely healthy, 986 00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:32,040 Speaker 1: so he will be a pretty good player. He has 987 00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:34,759 Speaker 1: played well. I think the linebacker spot has played well. 988 00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:36,960 Speaker 1: Mark Joe Schober, the free agent they got from Cleveland 989 00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:39,360 Speaker 1: been a pretty good player for them. Miles Jackie I 990 00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 1: think been their best defender. They've been pretty good. They 991 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:46,359 Speaker 1: traded for Kamali Correa from the Titans, who Mike Keith 992 00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:47,560 Speaker 1: and I were talking about it, and he's a pretty 993 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:49,720 Speaker 1: good player. He's a guy that kind of got lost 994 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:53,440 Speaker 1: in the shuffle because because the numbers game kind of 995 00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:56,920 Speaker 1: got him when they got Clowney in Tennessee. But he's 996 00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,120 Speaker 1: a pretty good player. So the linebacker play has been okay. 997 00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:02,120 Speaker 1: You know, the young cornerbacks haven't been bad. Sidney Jones 998 00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:05,279 Speaker 1: a guy they got that had been a high draft 999 00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:07,000 Speaker 1: pick before that they just kind of picked up here. 1000 00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:09,160 Speaker 1: C J. Henderson, the first round draft pick, have been okay. 1001 00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:12,440 Speaker 1: So corners have been okay. Linebackers have been okay. The 1002 00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:14,440 Speaker 1: line hasn't played very well. There hasn't been much of 1003 00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 1: a pass rush. There has been very little interior pass rush. 1004 00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:20,520 Speaker 1: They've stopped to run, okay, but they haven't gotten to 1005 00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:22,759 Speaker 1: the pastor But I think to your question, I think 1006 00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:24,439 Speaker 1: the best thing is I think the linebackers have played 1007 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:26,600 Speaker 1: pretty well. All right, So what do you think of 1008 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:29,759 Speaker 1: Cults versus Titans. I mean, obviously the Texans and the 1009 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:31,759 Speaker 1: Jags have both love to get back into this thing. 1010 00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:34,560 Speaker 1: But here we have these two teams vying for the 1011 00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:37,879 Speaker 1: division as it stands now. And what do you think 1012 00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:41,040 Speaker 1: of the two teams when you compare and contrast them. 1013 00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:43,960 Speaker 1: I think the Titans are the better of the two teams. 1014 00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:47,440 Speaker 1: I think they're both good. I think Philip, in fairness 1015 00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:48,960 Speaker 1: to the Colts, they had to kind of find their 1016 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:52,640 Speaker 1: way with Philip Rivers. That's with no OTAs and limited 1017 00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:55,120 Speaker 1: camp and no preseason. So when you bring in a 1018 00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:58,279 Speaker 1: whole new quarterback who has a different skill set and 1019 00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:01,480 Speaker 1: different tendencies and he's got to learn receivers, that's really 1020 00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:05,640 Speaker 1: hard when there's no there's no OTAs, there's no preseason 1021 00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:07,279 Speaker 1: games at all, not that he would have played much 1022 00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:09,880 Speaker 1: in the preseason, so the benefit of the doubt, it 1023 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:11,879 Speaker 1: was going to take a little bit of a little 1024 00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:13,840 Speaker 1: bit of time for Rivers to learn. The cults of 1025 00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:15,560 Speaker 1: the Colt learning, I think we all agree with that. 1026 00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:18,560 Speaker 1: But having said that, I really like what the Titans do. 1027 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:21,960 Speaker 1: They've only lost to the Steelers at the time, they'd 1028 00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:24,160 Speaker 1: only lost to the Steelers. That they struggled a little since. 1029 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:27,120 Speaker 1: But I really think the Titans are pretty good. I 1030 00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:29,560 Speaker 1: think they're tough. I think they're physical. I think Derick 1031 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:31,200 Speaker 1: Henry might be the best back in the league. I 1032 00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:33,839 Speaker 1: think they play. They play in the image of their coach, 1033 00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:37,080 Speaker 1: Mike Rabel, who's a tough guy. So I like the Titans. 1034 00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:39,160 Speaker 1: Those two teams, I think the Titans are the better 1035 00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:41,520 Speaker 1: of the two teams, but they're both good. I think 1036 00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:43,600 Speaker 1: in an expanded playoff, I think they're both going to 1037 00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:46,000 Speaker 1: be in the playoffs. So, Frank, here we are halfway 1038 00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:48,440 Speaker 1: through the season and the league is pulling it off. 1039 00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:50,960 Speaker 1: Now they might have to go to six team teams 1040 00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:53,880 Speaker 1: making the playoffs, or however they organize that if they 1041 00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:56,279 Speaker 1: end up missing games in the back half, which is 1042 00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:58,560 Speaker 1: going to be more challenging than the first half in 1043 00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:01,920 Speaker 1: all likelihood because of there or whatever. But your thoughts 1044 00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:05,640 Speaker 1: on the way it's going amid the pandemic conducting NFL football, 1045 00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:08,319 Speaker 1: I think to this point, Mark, they've pulled it off. 1046 00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:10,839 Speaker 1: I applaud. Look, the NFL is good at what they do. Man, 1047 00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:13,279 Speaker 1: you watch these other leagues, try to figure it out. 1048 00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:15,560 Speaker 1: You watch college football, try to figure it out. The 1049 00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:17,400 Speaker 1: NFL is better at all of them. And knowing what 1050 00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:19,239 Speaker 1: they do and what they're doing. They were ahead of 1051 00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:21,080 Speaker 1: the game with the testing, They were ahead of the 1052 00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:23,439 Speaker 1: game with protocols. Now they had the luxury of time 1053 00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:26,279 Speaker 1: when this thing hit. Their season was five or six 1054 00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:29,000 Speaker 1: months out, and everybody else or other many others were playing. 1055 00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:31,759 Speaker 1: Colleges have their own set of problems because they're because 1056 00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:34,840 Speaker 1: they're college students and their their packed campuses. I get it. 1057 00:54:35,200 --> 00:54:36,920 Speaker 1: But I think the NFL has done a good job. 1058 00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:39,040 Speaker 1: We were going to lose some games. I'm not surprised 1059 00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:42,239 Speaker 1: that some games got delayed. I think the Titans did 1060 00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:44,239 Speaker 1: a great job of delaying and delaying and then still 1061 00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:46,360 Speaker 1: being pretty good when they played. So I think the 1062 00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:49,120 Speaker 1: league has managed this, man, I really do. I think 1063 00:54:49,520 --> 00:54:52,000 Speaker 1: the NFL is pretty damn good at what they do. 1064 00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:54,320 Speaker 1: That that's the bottom line. They're good at what they do, 1065 00:54:54,840 --> 00:54:56,959 Speaker 1: and I'm not surprised as I look at the league, 1066 00:54:56,960 --> 00:54:58,279 Speaker 1: as we look at the we're talking about this on 1067 00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:01,640 Speaker 1: our show the Internet, the league's pulled it off. The 1068 00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:04,040 Speaker 1: teams you expected to be good are pretty good. The 1069 00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:06,120 Speaker 1: teams that we're going to struggle with struggling. I don't 1070 00:55:06,160 --> 00:55:09,279 Speaker 1: think there's any COVID related storylines you know what I mean. 1071 00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:12,960 Speaker 1: There's no superstars that aren't playing. I think it's come off. 1072 00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:15,680 Speaker 1: I think I think the league has the same storylines 1073 00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:17,400 Speaker 1: you would have had has there have been no COVID. 1074 00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:19,440 Speaker 1: You knew the Bucks were gonna be good with Tom Brady. 1075 00:55:20,160 --> 00:55:21,880 Speaker 1: You knew there'd be a bounce back from teams like 1076 00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:26,799 Speaker 1: the Packers in the Saints. You knew the Kansas City 1077 00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:28,680 Speaker 1: was gonna be tough to beat in the AFC, the 1078 00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:30,520 Speaker 1: Ravens were gonna be good. I think the Steelers are 1079 00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:33,480 Speaker 1: a little better than people thought. That's a storyline, honestly, Mark, 1080 00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:36,480 Speaker 1: and from where we are, the biggest the most surprising 1081 00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:39,239 Speaker 1: storyline is the Texans to us because they were so 1082 00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:42,359 Speaker 1: so good last year. The Texans are good last year, man, 1083 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:44,880 Speaker 1: you know better than anybody. You call the games, and 1084 00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:46,879 Speaker 1: the fact that they've gotten off to a slow start 1085 00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:49,520 Speaker 1: has been been unusual. But other than that, I think 1086 00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:52,360 Speaker 1: I think it's it's felt other than nobody in the stands. 1087 00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:55,360 Speaker 1: It has felt like business as usual in the league 1088 00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:59,000 Speaker 1: for me.

Now, Mark, 1212 01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:49,800 Speaker 1: can I tell you a it's not pandering? What can 1213 01:03:49,840 --> 01:03:51,840 Speaker 1: I tell you how great it is to have back 1214 01:03:52,040 --> 01:03:54,720 Speaker 1: on a Wednesday edition of Texans All Access with me, 1215 01:03:55,080 --> 01:03:57,920 Speaker 1: because it's really good to have you back. Well, it's 1216 01:03:57,960 --> 01:04:00,520 Speaker 1: great to be back, Johnny, and back from the and 1217 01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:04,200 Speaker 1: back into these games and you know, and doing the 1218 01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:06,800 Speaker 1: deeper dives on things like I know that the team 1219 01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:09,320 Speaker 1: does theirs and we do ours. And then I look 1220 01:04:09,400 --> 01:04:12,640 Speaker 1: at everything they've been doing right and wrong, and there's 1221 01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:14,080 Speaker 1: a lot of right. I mean when you look at 1222 01:04:14,120 --> 01:04:16,280 Speaker 1: the passing game, my gosh, I mean, they're putting up 1223 01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:18,440 Speaker 1: some numbers that we've kind of, I don't want to 1224 01:04:18,440 --> 01:04:21,400 Speaker 1: say dreamed about, but you know they are nice, healthy numbers. 1225 01:04:22,080 --> 01:04:24,440 Speaker 1: Need more point production, but the yards are good, and 1226 01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:26,959 Speaker 1: there is some good point production in the second half, 1227 01:04:27,280 --> 01:04:29,960 Speaker 1: But the first half of these games, Johnny I just 1228 01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:32,600 Speaker 1: wrote about this on Houston Texans dot com. I mean 1229 01:04:32,640 --> 01:04:36,200 Speaker 1: they're being outscored one twenty to sixty four. I mean 1230 01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:39,880 Speaker 1: they're averaging when you average under ten points per game 1231 01:04:39,960 --> 01:04:43,040 Speaker 1: per half. And look that average is skewed high because 1232 01:04:43,040 --> 01:04:44,960 Speaker 1: of the Pittsburgh game where they had twenty one points 1233 01:04:45,000 --> 01:04:47,880 Speaker 1: and a half. Every other game it's been ten or below. 1234 01:04:48,360 --> 01:04:52,000 Speaker 1: That is unacceptable. You cannot do that with this amount 1235 01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:54,040 Speaker 1: of talent. And they know it, and they got to 1236 01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:56,480 Speaker 1: try to fix it fast, no doubt. And Mark, I'm 1237 01:04:56,480 --> 01:05:00,479 Speaker 1: gonna give you another one that I was actually thinking 1238 01:05:00,520 --> 01:05:06,760 Speaker 1: about today. I sat down with the records from the 1239 01:05:07,240 --> 01:05:10,120 Speaker 1: beginning seven the seven teams we played at the beginning 1240 01:05:10,160 --> 01:05:14,439 Speaker 1: of the year and the eight teams that we play 1241 01:05:14,760 --> 01:05:18,720 Speaker 1: at the end of the year. The winning percentage for 1242 01:05:18,840 --> 01:05:24,560 Speaker 1: the first seven games thirty two and eighteen, that's a 1243 01:05:24,720 --> 01:05:28,400 Speaker 1: sixty four percent clip that teams you're winning. Now, if 1244 01:05:28,440 --> 01:05:30,440 Speaker 1: you take the Jags out of there, it's even I 1245 01:05:30,480 --> 01:05:35,640 Speaker 1: mean it's even more soaked right the final nine, which 1246 01:05:35,680 --> 01:05:39,360 Speaker 1: includes the Colts twice. So if I were being if 1247 01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:41,120 Speaker 1: I would be better, but I just did the eight 1248 01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:44,320 Speaker 1: teams that we play. The eight teams that we play, 1249 01:05:45,040 --> 01:05:50,240 Speaker 1: it's under five hundred, twenty eight thirty and one the 1250 01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:55,680 Speaker 1: last nine games, that's under five hundred. So you talk 1251 01:05:55,720 --> 01:06:02,520 Speaker 1: about schedule discrepancy and things change first half versus second half. 1252 01:06:03,440 --> 01:06:05,960 Speaker 1: If the Texans, just if you go buy that, like 1253 01:06:06,040 --> 01:06:09,080 Speaker 1: what you just said, first half points not putting points 1254 01:06:09,120 --> 01:06:11,640 Speaker 1: on the board, but second half roaring back and making 1255 01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:15,200 Speaker 1: some noise, well, the schedule seems to kind of lay 1256 01:06:15,240 --> 01:06:18,200 Speaker 1: it all out there as well, that the eight teams 1257 01:06:18,280 --> 01:06:22,400 Speaker 1: that you play over the last nine games are twenty 1258 01:06:22,480 --> 01:06:28,360 Speaker 1: eight thirty and one under five hundred. And look, you've 1259 01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:30,919 Speaker 1: got some injuries with some key spots. The Browns lost, 1260 01:06:30,960 --> 01:06:33,240 Speaker 1: it would be j you know, the Patriots aren't playing 1261 01:06:33,240 --> 01:06:36,880 Speaker 1: exceptionally well. You know, Detroit just announced today that Matt 1262 01:06:36,920 --> 01:06:39,919 Speaker 1: Stafford has the COVID. Don't know whether he'll be able 1263 01:06:39,960 --> 01:06:42,360 Speaker 1: to play or not, or what's going on there. It's 1264 01:06:42,360 --> 01:06:44,600 Speaker 1: definitely not going to be easy that Colts bears. Colts 1265 01:06:44,640 --> 01:06:47,600 Speaker 1: stretch is rough, and I think JJ and Deshaun had 1266 01:06:47,640 --> 01:06:49,960 Speaker 1: the right thought, and that is one game at a time. 1267 01:06:50,240 --> 01:06:53,320 Speaker 1: You can't be you know, nine and seven or ten 1268 01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:55,080 Speaker 1: and six after this game, you just got to win 1269 01:06:55,200 --> 01:06:58,680 Speaker 1: this one game. But Mark, this one game is so 1270 01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:03,680 Speaker 1: important to just get that second half kicked off the 1271 01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:07,160 Speaker 1: way you think it's supposed to be and getting going 1272 01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:11,160 Speaker 1: against the Jacksonville team that is, let's be honest, not 1273 01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:15,160 Speaker 1: as probably not as good a Jacksonville team as we've 1274 01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:17,760 Speaker 1: seen in quite some time. I mean, this team is 1275 01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:19,920 Speaker 1: really struggling. He's very young, and it's got injuries that 1276 01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:23,600 Speaker 1: key spots, including quarterback. Well, I think when you look 1277 01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:26,680 Speaker 1: at Looton for the Jags and you know we're joking 1278 01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:29,160 Speaker 1: about him yesterday, and you know I've been bringing up 1279 01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:31,880 Speaker 1: you know, you bringing up Drew lock nightmares to me, 1280 01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:34,880 Speaker 1: Thank you very much. But you know, the Texans record 1281 01:07:34,920 --> 01:07:38,600 Speaker 1: against rookies is really good in the quote O'Brien era, 1282 01:07:38,760 --> 01:07:40,320 Speaker 1: and I guess we're still sort of in that era 1283 01:07:41,120 --> 01:07:44,240 Speaker 1: so that you know, overall it's good. But here's the problem. 1284 01:07:44,320 --> 01:07:46,360 Speaker 1: I mean, the guy's big and strong and has a 1285 01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:49,840 Speaker 1: big arm. You know, Minshoe's not not kind of like that, 1286 01:07:50,040 --> 01:07:52,480 Speaker 1: you know. I mean, this guy can can really spin it, 1287 01:07:53,360 --> 01:07:56,680 Speaker 1: as Frank Frangie says Voice of the Jaguars, and I 1288 01:07:56,760 --> 01:07:58,920 Speaker 1: think that, Uh, you know, I don't know if that 1289 01:07:59,040 --> 01:08:01,800 Speaker 1: means he's accurate, he's gonna make plays or whatever, but 1290 01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:05,320 Speaker 1: you do have the unknown. However, all that being said, 1291 01:08:05,360 --> 01:08:06,720 Speaker 1: you're right, you've got to find a way to take 1292 01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:08,400 Speaker 1: care of business. And like, if they can't do it 1293 01:08:08,520 --> 01:08:11,120 Speaker 1: this week, then when can you do it? But I 1294 01:08:11,280 --> 01:08:13,360 Speaker 1: do think there is the opportunity to make some hay 1295 01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:16,720 Speaker 1: here to go on a little run. You mentioned the 1296 01:08:16,800 --> 01:08:19,960 Speaker 1: record of these teams not being as good. You just 1297 01:08:20,080 --> 01:08:22,720 Speaker 1: still have to play a whole lot better. And I 1298 01:08:22,840 --> 01:08:26,120 Speaker 1: know that sounds simplistic. I think it's out there for them. 1299 01:08:26,560 --> 01:08:29,839 Speaker 1: I don't think it takes much to make a difference 1300 01:08:29,920 --> 01:08:31,720 Speaker 1: in some of these games we've seen. Look at it 1301 01:08:31,800 --> 01:08:34,080 Speaker 1: this way. They've had the lead going into the fourth 1302 01:08:34,160 --> 01:08:37,080 Speaker 1: quarter three times. Now, you're not gonna win all those games. 1303 01:08:37,360 --> 01:08:40,160 Speaker 1: But if you had two more wins right now, you're 1304 01:08:40,280 --> 01:08:43,040 Speaker 1: right in this division race. I mean you're right there. 1305 01:08:43,600 --> 01:08:45,439 Speaker 1: And you know, because you would have hung another loss 1306 01:08:45,479 --> 01:08:48,479 Speaker 1: on the Titans, and you would have another victory somewhere else, 1307 01:08:48,560 --> 01:08:50,800 Speaker 1: maybe Pittsburgh because you led them in the fourth quarter, 1308 01:08:51,200 --> 01:08:53,599 Speaker 1: or maybe somehow you eat one out against the Vikings. 1309 01:08:53,920 --> 01:08:56,519 Speaker 1: And imagine how different the universe would look right now, 1310 01:08:56,640 --> 01:08:59,880 Speaker 1: especially with the possibility of eight teams per conference. Look, 1311 01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:04,519 Speaker 1: I'm here for it. We'll football fans, let's watch it. 1312 01:09:04,840 --> 01:09:07,759 Speaker 1: Let's see what happens. A goat nine games starting Sunday. 1313 01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:10,120 Speaker 1: Let's try to enjoy the show and hope that it's 1314 01:09:10,160 --> 01:09:13,320 Speaker 1: a good show. Yeah, and you're right, I mean enjoy 1315 01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:17,240 Speaker 1: enjoy the show. And the show really has been the 1316 01:09:17,360 --> 01:09:21,040 Speaker 1: passing game. I mean, it is so clear how fishing 1317 01:09:21,120 --> 01:09:23,360 Speaker 1: this team can be when it's throwing the ball. But 1318 01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:27,679 Speaker 1: when it decides to run the football, it turns into 1319 01:09:27,800 --> 01:09:30,920 Speaker 1: a complete I mean, it's Jekyll and Hide. And look, 1320 01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:35,080 Speaker 1: we've seen teams over the years, not not Texans teams. Well, 1321 01:09:35,080 --> 01:09:38,720 Speaker 1: we've seen teams over the years that have been that way. Man. 1322 01:09:38,800 --> 01:09:42,759 Speaker 1: They can't you know, they they couldn't run through tissue paper. 1323 01:09:42,880 --> 01:09:46,280 Speaker 1: But you let them throw the football, they're gonna slice 1324 01:09:46,280 --> 01:09:48,400 Speaker 1: and dice you. But I think you're right, Mark. The 1325 01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:52,720 Speaker 1: biggest thing that this offense has to do is come 1326 01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:55,679 Speaker 1: out of the gates early. And yet it's the biggest 1327 01:09:55,880 --> 01:10:01,479 Speaker 1: mystery to me and anybody else, you include why we 1328 01:10:01,720 --> 01:10:04,320 Speaker 1: can't get out of the blocks early in a game. 1329 01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:07,080 Speaker 1: I don't understand how we can't go down six place 1330 01:10:07,120 --> 01:10:09,080 Speaker 1: seventy five yards is stick one in the end zone 1331 01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:12,120 Speaker 1: and just playing our flag for the day, saying this 1332 01:10:12,320 --> 01:10:14,920 Speaker 1: is how we're gonna be get you know, get used 1333 01:10:14,960 --> 01:10:17,800 Speaker 1: to it, opponent. I don't understand why we just can't 1334 01:10:17,920 --> 01:10:20,960 Speaker 1: do that. It just feels like we ease our way 1335 01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:25,320 Speaker 1: into a game as opposed to just jumping into the 1336 01:10:25,439 --> 01:10:28,000 Speaker 1: damn puddle and getting everybody wet and seeing how they're 1337 01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:30,120 Speaker 1: gonna react and then take them out behind the woods 1338 01:10:30,120 --> 01:10:32,600 Speaker 1: sheet at that point. So that's the part to me 1339 01:10:32,800 --> 01:10:38,120 Speaker 1: that I have, I feel to understand why that happens. 1340 01:10:38,240 --> 01:10:40,479 Speaker 1: And I don't know. Maybe it's just this group, this team. 1341 01:10:41,840 --> 01:10:43,800 Speaker 1: I don't know. But if there's one thing I want 1342 01:10:43,800 --> 01:10:46,160 Speaker 1: to see mark it is you get the ball to 1343 01:10:46,240 --> 01:10:50,200 Speaker 1: start the game on a touchback and you go seventy 1344 01:10:50,240 --> 01:10:52,800 Speaker 1: five yards and you just stick it on them like 1345 01:10:52,920 --> 01:10:54,840 Speaker 1: and they can't handle it. Man, if it's gonna be 1346 01:10:54,880 --> 01:10:56,840 Speaker 1: like this all day, we're in trouble. That's the kind 1347 01:10:56,880 --> 01:10:59,400 Speaker 1: of offense that we've got to be with the amount 1348 01:10:59,400 --> 01:11:02,000 Speaker 1: of firepower than it has. You know what, I want 1349 01:11:02,040 --> 01:11:05,680 Speaker 1: to see the juice offense. If you're out there and 1350 01:11:05,760 --> 01:11:08,639 Speaker 1: you're not playing with juice, you're not bringing the energy, 1351 01:11:09,040 --> 01:11:10,680 Speaker 1: then get out of there, you know what I mean, 1352 01:11:11,120 --> 01:11:15,519 Speaker 1: start the game viciously violently. You know. It's the funny 1353 01:11:15,600 --> 01:11:17,960 Speaker 1: thing to me about the Green Bay game, prepping for that, 1354 01:11:18,320 --> 01:11:22,040 Speaker 1: going into that, David Johnson was averaging four yards per carry, 1355 01:11:22,280 --> 01:11:24,800 Speaker 1: and I was thinking, geez, that's not a bad number 1356 01:11:24,840 --> 01:11:27,280 Speaker 1: at all. I mean, we've seen worse around here. When 1357 01:11:27,360 --> 01:11:29,120 Speaker 1: you felt like you were running the ball better, you 1358 01:11:29,200 --> 01:11:31,320 Speaker 1: know what I mean. There are years where Lamar didn't 1359 01:11:31,360 --> 01:11:33,880 Speaker 1: have the healthiest yard per carry average, but you're still 1360 01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:37,080 Speaker 1: running the ball and it was working for you because 1361 01:11:37,520 --> 01:11:40,240 Speaker 1: you were able to score earlier in games. You played 1362 01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:42,200 Speaker 1: maybe better defense in the first half, maybe you got 1363 01:11:42,280 --> 01:11:44,880 Speaker 1: a turnover in the first half or two, and you 1364 01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:47,639 Speaker 1: were able to eke out games and grind out wins. 1365 01:11:47,720 --> 01:11:51,519 Speaker 1: And so many of the O'Brien era victories were like that. Well, 1366 01:11:51,640 --> 01:11:54,479 Speaker 1: now it just feels like you're down two scores at 1367 01:11:54,520 --> 01:11:56,640 Speaker 1: the half. You know, you're just on the edge of 1368 01:11:56,680 --> 01:11:58,960 Speaker 1: a cliff. In the second half, you find a way 1369 01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:02,679 Speaker 1: to stay within two scores. Maybe a miracle happens, most 1370 01:12:02,720 --> 01:12:05,400 Speaker 1: likely not. You know, you can't play that way so 1371 01:12:05,720 --> 01:12:08,120 Speaker 1: whatever it takes, you know, and Johnny, you know, we 1372 01:12:08,160 --> 01:12:11,519 Speaker 1: always say play up tempo, you know, to their credit 1373 01:12:11,800 --> 01:12:14,360 Speaker 1: when they do pop a play on first down or 1374 01:12:14,400 --> 01:12:16,559 Speaker 1: whatever the down is, when they do get a first down, 1375 01:12:17,280 --> 01:12:19,960 Speaker 1: they do hurry up to the line, but very often 1376 01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:23,000 Speaker 1: it stalls out after that, you know, Like, I don't know, 1377 01:12:23,200 --> 01:12:25,240 Speaker 1: and we've seen that a lot in this era. I 1378 01:12:25,320 --> 01:12:28,040 Speaker 1: don't know what the answer is to that. I'm not 1379 01:12:28,160 --> 01:12:30,240 Speaker 1: sure if they can solve it during a bye, but 1380 01:12:30,400 --> 01:12:33,400 Speaker 1: here's hoping that Tim Kelly and Romeo Cornell took a 1381 01:12:33,479 --> 01:12:35,560 Speaker 1: long look at it and said, look, we've got to 1382 01:12:35,640 --> 01:12:38,920 Speaker 1: change something. We gotta add something. We got to add 1383 01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:42,559 Speaker 1: a wrinkle, a tweak, something's brought to be different. Because 1384 01:12:42,600 --> 01:12:44,280 Speaker 1: if you keep beating your head or head against the 1385 01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:46,519 Speaker 1: wall trying to do the same thing better, I'm not 1386 01:12:46,600 --> 01:12:48,720 Speaker 1: so sure that's going to make a difference, even though 1387 01:12:49,120 --> 01:12:51,720 Speaker 1: the opponent's records aren't as healthy as what you've seen 1388 01:12:51,760 --> 01:12:54,360 Speaker 1: in the first half of the season. Yeah, no doubt. 1389 01:12:54,439 --> 01:13:02,439 Speaker 1: And mark one player that you either a want to 1390 01:13:02,640 --> 01:13:05,240 Speaker 1: see that we didn't see in the first half or 1391 01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:09,840 Speaker 1: be want to see take a big leap in the 1392 01:13:09,960 --> 01:13:12,080 Speaker 1: second half from what he did in the first half. 1393 01:13:13,160 --> 01:13:15,760 Speaker 1: All right, I've got a couple for you. First of all, 1394 01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:19,680 Speaker 1: Aikin's back at practice is just a site for sore eyes, right, 1395 01:13:20,000 --> 01:13:21,920 Speaker 1: I mean this is this is gonna be big because 1396 01:13:21,960 --> 01:13:24,040 Speaker 1: Fells has been playing well for you. But to have 1397 01:13:24,200 --> 01:13:27,280 Speaker 1: both of those guys out there operating efficiently is gonna 1398 01:13:27,280 --> 01:13:29,760 Speaker 1: be big because the receivers are good. You know, your 1399 01:13:29,920 --> 01:13:33,479 Speaker 1: yard per attempt is the highest in the league with 1400 01:13:33,640 --> 01:13:36,000 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson. I mean that is something you can kind 1401 01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:39,160 Speaker 1: of hang your hat off. That's nice. So I like that. 1402 01:13:39,439 --> 01:13:41,240 Speaker 1: But here's a player I want to see more of, 1403 01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:43,960 Speaker 1: and it's with all due respect to David Johnson. I 1404 01:13:44,040 --> 01:13:46,000 Speaker 1: want to see more Duke. I got to see more 1405 01:13:46,120 --> 01:13:49,680 Speaker 1: Duke in the lineup because Duke brings the energy and 1406 01:13:49,920 --> 01:13:52,479 Speaker 1: he might not be a smash mouths running back, but 1407 01:13:52,640 --> 01:13:55,080 Speaker 1: the offense seems to move when he's in there. And 1408 01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:56,760 Speaker 1: I still think you could have both in there. I 1409 01:13:56,880 --> 01:13:59,599 Speaker 1: think with David in there, I like using David as 1410 01:13:59,600 --> 01:14:02,560 Speaker 1: a big receiver though, and then popa run here or 1411 01:14:02,600 --> 01:14:06,360 Speaker 1: there see how it goes. Because David Johnson, to me, 1412 01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:10,000 Speaker 1: you can use him like a Lebiscus Channault or in 1413 01:14:10,080 --> 01:14:12,479 Speaker 1: a j Brown a little bit, you know, in certain 1414 01:14:13,320 --> 01:14:16,719 Speaker 1: certain ways that they use those guys. I like David 1415 01:14:16,840 --> 01:14:19,599 Speaker 1: Johnson kind of in that role a little and he's 1416 01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:22,760 Speaker 1: way more versatile than those dudes. I mean, he's got 1417 01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:25,240 Speaker 1: way more experience, and I think he knows this offense. 1418 01:14:25,280 --> 01:14:27,360 Speaker 1: So look, that's easy for me to say, We'll see 1419 01:14:27,360 --> 01:14:29,080 Speaker 1: how they handle it, But to me, it's Duke and 1420 01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:32,679 Speaker 1: Aikens that can make a big difference for this offense. Yeah, 1421 01:14:32,840 --> 01:14:36,439 Speaker 1: I'll actually you went offense, I'm gonna go over to 1422 01:14:36,479 --> 01:14:38,640 Speaker 1: the other side. I think there are two rookies that 1423 01:14:38,720 --> 01:14:42,240 Speaker 1: I want to see. Number one is John Grenard and 1424 01:14:42,640 --> 01:14:46,920 Speaker 1: obviously draft night when we were right before we took him, 1425 01:14:47,040 --> 01:14:49,439 Speaker 1: that was a player that I said, I think would 1426 01:14:49,479 --> 01:14:52,280 Speaker 1: be a good fit here. He's got twitch, he's built 1427 01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:54,960 Speaker 1: the right way. I think he plays football with a 1428 01:14:55,200 --> 01:14:58,479 Speaker 1: really high football IQ. I want to see. I want 1429 01:14:58,479 --> 01:15:00,360 Speaker 1: to see him in the second half because I think 1430 01:15:00,439 --> 01:15:07,120 Speaker 1: he gives this defense more twitch, more explosiveness on the edge. 1431 01:15:07,720 --> 01:15:09,439 Speaker 1: But I want to see it. And the other one 1432 01:15:09,560 --> 01:15:11,760 Speaker 1: is John Reid. You know that first game against the 1433 01:15:11,840 --> 01:15:13,600 Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs, you know he's strown out there at 1434 01:15:13,640 --> 01:15:16,400 Speaker 1: the nickel and he's got to cover all those chiefs 1435 01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:18,920 Speaker 1: wide receivers. I mean, you know, that's like trying to 1436 01:15:18,960 --> 01:15:22,320 Speaker 1: take ap Calculus BC and you haven't even taken pre 1437 01:15:22,400 --> 01:15:25,559 Speaker 1: algebra yet, and he's thrown into you know, he's thrown 1438 01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:28,320 Speaker 1: right into it. And then for he played a little 1439 01:15:28,320 --> 01:15:29,920 Speaker 1: bit the next game, and then we really haven't seen 1440 01:15:30,040 --> 01:15:34,120 Speaker 1: him to a point where he was inactive last last 1441 01:15:34,320 --> 01:15:37,040 Speaker 1: or two weeks against the Packers two weeks ago. And 1442 01:15:37,520 --> 01:15:40,320 Speaker 1: those are two guys that you've got. You've got to 1443 01:15:40,360 --> 01:15:42,200 Speaker 1: get something out of this rookie class. We're starting to 1444 01:15:42,240 --> 01:15:44,639 Speaker 1: see a little bit more of Ross Blacklock. I think 1445 01:15:44,720 --> 01:15:46,880 Speaker 1: he's playing with a little bit more confidence up front. 1446 01:15:47,560 --> 01:15:49,880 Speaker 1: You really saw that against Tennessee, but you really saw 1447 01:15:49,960 --> 01:15:51,840 Speaker 1: him hold his own a little bit more against Green Bay. 1448 01:15:52,240 --> 01:15:55,360 Speaker 1: But Grenard and Reid we haven't. We haven't seen. I'm 1449 01:15:55,400 --> 01:15:57,920 Speaker 1: not with the receivers that we have. I'm not really 1450 01:15:58,000 --> 01:16:00,280 Speaker 1: holding out hope that Isaiah Coulter can really get on 1451 01:16:00,360 --> 01:16:02,200 Speaker 1: the field, although I'd love to see it just to 1452 01:16:02,280 --> 01:16:04,240 Speaker 1: see what he can do, because I think he is 1453 01:16:05,280 --> 01:16:08,360 Speaker 1: is uber talented and I really would like to see 1454 01:16:08,439 --> 01:16:10,719 Speaker 1: him on the field at some point. But the receivers 1455 01:16:10,800 --> 01:16:13,360 Speaker 1: were deep at that position. But to me, on the 1456 01:16:13,439 --> 01:16:15,759 Speaker 1: defensive side of the ball, man, we need every ounce 1457 01:16:15,800 --> 01:16:17,720 Speaker 1: of help we can get. And if John Reid and 1458 01:16:17,760 --> 01:16:22,080 Speaker 1: John Grenark can come in and give that group some explosiveness, 1459 01:16:22,520 --> 01:16:28,640 Speaker 1: some smarts and some twitch, I'm all about it. Absolutely. 1460 01:16:28,720 --> 01:16:32,080 Speaker 1: Let's see what these rookies can do and look if 1461 01:16:32,360 --> 01:16:37,479 Speaker 1: if it's clear they're not, okay, we mess this up. Okay, 1462 01:16:37,520 --> 01:16:39,360 Speaker 1: don't put them on the field. Like I get all that, 1463 01:16:39,560 --> 01:16:41,960 Speaker 1: But do you really know that through seven weeks of 1464 01:16:42,080 --> 01:16:45,760 Speaker 1: football season, No, you don't. So I want to see 1465 01:16:45,840 --> 01:16:48,640 Speaker 1: John Reid and John Grenard get on the field and 1466 01:16:49,120 --> 01:16:52,880 Speaker 1: impact this defense in some way, shape or form. And 1467 01:16:53,040 --> 01:16:55,719 Speaker 1: I don't care if it's even if it's just Grenard 1468 01:16:55,800 --> 01:16:59,000 Speaker 1: rushing to passer and John Reid covering a slot ten 1469 01:16:59,120 --> 01:17:02,200 Speaker 1: times a game, fine, I'm okay with that. I just 1470 01:17:02,320 --> 01:17:05,160 Speaker 1: want to see, ay, if they can do it, and 1471 01:17:05,360 --> 01:17:08,400 Speaker 1: be if they can do it, I want to continue 1472 01:17:08,479 --> 01:17:10,479 Speaker 1: to see it because that's gonna help that defense in 1473 01:17:10,560 --> 01:17:13,720 Speaker 1: those particular roles. And just think if we've got an 1474 01:17:13,800 --> 01:17:16,920 Speaker 1: edge player that can play the edge really well against 1475 01:17:16,960 --> 01:17:19,760 Speaker 1: the run and gives you something the past rush man, 1476 01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:21,920 Speaker 1: let's get that young dude out on the field, and 1477 01:17:21,960 --> 01:17:25,240 Speaker 1: if you've got somebody that can cover anybody, that's gonna 1478 01:17:25,280 --> 01:17:28,400 Speaker 1: help that secondary right now, well, and I think you know, 1479 01:17:28,520 --> 01:17:31,160 Speaker 1: you play young guys, They're gonna make mistakes. But guess 1480 01:17:31,200 --> 01:17:34,320 Speaker 1: what's been happening. You've been making mistakes anyway, you know. 1481 01:17:34,520 --> 01:17:36,760 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying like, wow, who cares, because I 1482 01:17:36,960 --> 01:17:38,960 Speaker 1: definitely care, And I know that you don't want to 1483 01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:42,160 Speaker 1: blow games because of this, But I'm with you. You know, 1484 01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:45,840 Speaker 1: if you could sprinkle some snaps in for those guys 1485 01:17:45,960 --> 01:17:48,559 Speaker 1: and at least know what you have, and maybe maybe 1486 01:17:48,600 --> 01:17:51,240 Speaker 1: they rise up and they turn out to be outstanding contributors, 1487 01:17:51,479 --> 01:17:54,760 Speaker 1: contributors for you. The other thing is this on all 1488 01:17:54,840 --> 01:17:58,639 Speaker 1: the personnel you want the new regime, however, it's set 1489 01:17:58,720 --> 01:18:02,479 Speaker 1: up to be able to make formed, educated decisions on 1490 01:18:02,640 --> 01:18:06,280 Speaker 1: these guys, and by having them play, by having them 1491 01:18:06,640 --> 01:18:09,160 Speaker 1: get some guts of the game snaps, you're gonna be 1492 01:18:09,200 --> 01:18:12,000 Speaker 1: able to have a good indicator of what they can 1493 01:18:12,080 --> 01:18:14,800 Speaker 1: do for you in the future. And now too. I mean, 1494 01:18:14,880 --> 01:18:16,840 Speaker 1: let's see if you can win these games, you know, 1495 01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:19,320 Speaker 1: get all hands on deck. You know, I'm just praying 1496 01:18:19,360 --> 01:18:20,960 Speaker 1: that some of these guys are really balling out in 1497 01:18:21,040 --> 01:18:22,960 Speaker 1: practice or doing whatever they need to do to catch 1498 01:18:23,040 --> 01:18:26,280 Speaker 1: the coach's eye to get some reps. Because I like 1499 01:18:26,520 --> 01:18:28,960 Speaker 1: changing it up a bit. I like competition, forcing the 1500 01:18:29,040 --> 01:18:31,560 Speaker 1: issue a bit, and maybe the veterans saying, hey, this 1501 01:18:31,720 --> 01:18:33,719 Speaker 1: work is pretty good. I bet her up. My game 1502 01:18:34,160 --> 01:18:36,479 Speaker 1: is going to help, and let's hope that it does. Yeah, 1503 01:18:36,640 --> 01:18:39,920 Speaker 1: no doubt, Mark, I appreciate it. I know. We'll talk 1504 01:18:39,960 --> 01:18:42,280 Speaker 1: to General tomorrow night, and he's been on the same 1505 01:18:42,320 --> 01:18:46,120 Speaker 1: page with us about rebuild versus trade everybody away, so 1506 01:18:46,240 --> 01:18:48,280 Speaker 1: it'll be interesting discussion with him.

Let's be honest, but that 1626 01:26:36,080 --> 01:26:39,800 Speaker 1: Browns team at five and three, that record, they've played 1627 01:26:39,920 --> 01:26:42,519 Speaker 1: well at times, and over the last few weeks they've 1628 01:26:42,640 --> 01:26:45,240 Speaker 1: not played well. They lost the Raiders last week sixteen 1629 01:26:45,320 --> 01:26:48,640 Speaker 1: to six. They scored six points against the Raiders. The 1630 01:26:48,720 --> 01:26:51,200 Speaker 1: Raiders defense had just gone the week before given up 1631 01:26:51,280 --> 01:26:56,000 Speaker 1: forty five. I believe the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. So that's 1632 01:26:56,040 --> 01:26:58,799 Speaker 1: the Browns. Then after that it's back home against the Patriots, 1633 01:26:58,880 --> 01:27:01,280 Speaker 1: and you know they're gonna be tough. It's the Patriots. 1634 01:27:01,880 --> 01:27:04,479 Speaker 1: That's not a Patriots team like you faced before. That's 1635 01:27:04,520 --> 01:27:07,559 Speaker 1: a two win Patriots team. Then's the three win Detroit team. 1636 01:27:08,120 --> 01:27:11,000 Speaker 1: Then you have the gauntlet of three team, two teams 1637 01:27:11,040 --> 01:27:15,360 Speaker 1: in three games, Colts at home, Bears on the road, 1638 01:27:17,280 --> 01:27:20,840 Speaker 1: Colts on the road. That's as tough as it gets. 1639 01:27:21,600 --> 01:27:25,719 Speaker 1: That's tough. You'll face Philip Rivers twice. You'll face Nick Foles. 1640 01:27:25,960 --> 01:27:29,840 Speaker 1: So it's not that you're facing Mahomes, Jackson and Ben. 1641 01:27:29,960 --> 01:27:32,880 Speaker 1: You're facing Rivers who you beat last year, and you're 1642 01:27:32,920 --> 01:27:35,000 Speaker 1: facing Nick Foles, a guy who beat you in twenty eight, 1643 01:27:35,040 --> 01:27:37,400 Speaker 1: team with a whole heck of a lot more talents 1644 01:27:37,439 --> 01:27:40,120 Speaker 1: of a good defense. But you where I'm going. Sixty 1645 01:27:40,200 --> 01:27:44,960 Speaker 1: four percent versus forty seven point five percent, that's the 1646 01:27:45,040 --> 01:27:48,560 Speaker 1: difference in winning percentage the first seven teams that we 1647 01:27:48,680 --> 01:27:52,720 Speaker 1: played and the last eight teams that we play. Interesting, 1648 01:27:52,800 --> 01:27:56,360 Speaker 1: all right, let's get to Drew's dozen, and this week 1649 01:27:56,520 --> 01:28:00,599 Speaker 1: it is with tight end Darren Fells well the second 1650 01:28:00,680 --> 01:28:05,320 Speaker 1: time around on A Drew's Dozen for tight End, Darren Fells. 1651 01:28:05,479 --> 01:28:08,120 Speaker 1: The first time you were on was like two years ago, Darren, 1652 01:28:08,360 --> 01:28:11,600 Speaker 1: and we started it off by basically I started the 1653 01:28:11,680 --> 01:28:15,160 Speaker 1: whole thing off by speaking to you in Finnish to 1654 01:28:15,240 --> 01:28:17,040 Speaker 1: me like, I don't understand what you're talking about. Because 1655 01:28:17,080 --> 01:28:19,599 Speaker 1: you played in Finland. I thought, oh, I'll ask you something, 1656 01:28:19,640 --> 01:28:21,799 Speaker 1: and you're like, I just spoke English, they'll speak Englisher, 1657 01:28:21,840 --> 01:28:24,439 Speaker 1: So we're keeping it in English. Let's keep it with 1658 01:28:24,479 --> 01:28:27,680 Speaker 1: the holiday that's coming up, which is Thanksgiving. What's your 1659 01:28:27,680 --> 01:28:31,800 Speaker 1: favorite Thanksgiving side dish? I would have to go with 1660 01:28:31,960 --> 01:28:34,479 Speaker 1: mac and cheese. Mac and cheese, Okay, do you do 1661 01:28:34,520 --> 01:28:37,720 Speaker 1: anything like you tweak it in any sort of way? 1662 01:28:38,360 --> 01:28:40,280 Speaker 1: I try not to because I try to get my 1663 01:28:40,400 --> 01:28:41,880 Speaker 1: kids to either as well. So I try to keep 1664 01:28:41,920 --> 01:28:46,320 Speaker 1: it as basic as possible because my son and daughter 1665 01:28:46,360 --> 01:28:49,400 Speaker 1: they destroy mac and cheese. But I've learned that if 1666 01:28:49,439 --> 01:28:52,680 Speaker 1: it's not crash, they not really gonna eat it. So 1667 01:28:52,800 --> 01:28:55,160 Speaker 1: sometimes I'll try to spice it up by adding like 1668 01:28:55,280 --> 01:28:58,080 Speaker 1: a spicy Italian sausage or something like that too. It 1669 01:28:59,439 --> 01:29:03,400 Speaker 1: all right, what's the most overrated Thanksgiving dish? Cranberry sauce, 1670 01:29:03,800 --> 01:29:07,200 Speaker 1: like cranberry, not a cranberry sauce. Guy, Huh, you said, 1671 01:29:07,600 --> 01:29:11,519 Speaker 1: I feel like, oh overrated? Yeah, oh sorry for something else, 1672 01:29:11,840 --> 01:29:18,120 Speaker 1: I tected like it was underrated, like perfect for me, 1673 01:29:18,160 --> 01:29:23,000 Speaker 1: I would say, gravy, gravy. Okay, what are you gonna 1674 01:29:23,040 --> 01:29:27,280 Speaker 1: cook on Thanksgiving? Because you guys are playing at Detroit, 1675 01:29:27,960 --> 01:29:30,160 Speaker 1: But I imagine you're gonna do some sort of celebration 1676 01:29:30,240 --> 01:29:32,200 Speaker 1: with your family. And you're a hell of a cook 1677 01:29:32,240 --> 01:29:35,360 Speaker 1: because you like make sushi. You are really inventive in 1678 01:29:35,400 --> 01:29:39,240 Speaker 1: the kitchen. What are you what's your Thanksgiving plans? Man? Sadly, 1679 01:29:39,320 --> 01:29:43,160 Speaker 1: I will not be making anything extravagant due to COVID. 1680 01:29:43,520 --> 01:29:44,800 Speaker 1: A lot of my family's not gonna be able to 1681 01:29:44,840 --> 01:29:47,040 Speaker 1: make it out. So it's just me to wife and 1682 01:29:47,160 --> 01:29:50,640 Speaker 1: kids this Thanksgiving. So me last time when I me 1683 01:29:50,640 --> 01:29:52,920 Speaker 1: and my wife were dating, I've made a Thanksgiving sandwich. 1684 01:29:53,400 --> 01:29:56,679 Speaker 1: So I had a little bit of stuffing mac and cheese, turkey, 1685 01:29:56,760 --> 01:29:58,800 Speaker 1: and so I made it into a sub sandwich. So 1686 01:29:58,840 --> 01:30:01,760 Speaker 1: we're gonna do that again. That's creative enough, that's pretty good. 1687 01:30:01,840 --> 01:30:05,560 Speaker 1: You know you're on a there's outlying or underlying circumstances, 1688 01:30:05,600 --> 01:30:07,000 Speaker 1: so you're gonna make it work, and you're gonna do 1689 01:30:07,080 --> 01:30:09,680 Speaker 1: it on your own. I'm with you. Okay, what did 1690 01:30:09,760 --> 01:30:12,360 Speaker 1: you do over the bye week? On a personal level, 1691 01:30:12,880 --> 01:30:17,080 Speaker 1: my life evolves around my kids, so we did anything 1692 01:30:17,160 --> 01:30:20,920 Speaker 1: and everything they did they wanted. My daughter knew I 1693 01:30:21,000 --> 01:30:23,760 Speaker 1: had five days off, so she was up every single 1694 01:30:23,840 --> 01:30:28,160 Speaker 1: morning at six. So one night we had a slumber 1695 01:30:28,240 --> 01:30:31,559 Speaker 1: party and stayed up and watched whatever movie she wanted, 1696 01:30:31,600 --> 01:30:34,840 Speaker 1: which ended up being a Barbie movie. Okay, and then 1697 01:30:35,479 --> 01:30:38,760 Speaker 1: play a little Robots with her Robots and Barbie Man. 1698 01:30:38,800 --> 01:30:40,680 Speaker 1: It's a good week off. It's a little different of 1699 01:30:40,760 --> 01:30:47,840 Speaker 1: guessing than about seven eight years ago before you had children. Yeah, okay, 1700 01:30:48,920 --> 01:30:52,240 Speaker 1: this is a different one. What do you like being 1701 01:30:52,439 --> 01:30:55,800 Speaker 1: complimented on? It could be football or could be just 1702 01:30:55,920 --> 01:30:59,400 Speaker 1: like in general. Um, because I love cooking. I love 1703 01:30:59,439 --> 01:31:02,920 Speaker 1: when people enjoy my food. So whenever I see people 1704 01:31:03,240 --> 01:31:05,960 Speaker 1: going and getting second and say, I know, that's more 1705 01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:08,320 Speaker 1: of a they liked it instead of eating it because 1706 01:31:08,360 --> 01:31:10,559 Speaker 1: they are trying to be nice. Most people will finish 1707 01:31:10,560 --> 01:31:12,439 Speaker 1: the play o, it's trying to be nice. But when 1708 01:31:12,439 --> 01:31:13,920 Speaker 1: you go over there and get second, it's like, okay, 1709 01:31:14,040 --> 01:31:17,880 Speaker 1: maybe that is something right, not bad. Okay, you're a 1710 01:31:17,920 --> 01:31:21,160 Speaker 1: guy who played professional basketball for four years. You were 1711 01:31:21,200 --> 01:31:24,960 Speaker 1: in Mexico, Argentina, Belgium, France, You're all over the place. 1712 01:31:25,640 --> 01:31:28,040 Speaker 1: So with that in mind, you're a traveler. If you 1713 01:31:28,080 --> 01:31:31,519 Speaker 1: could travel to one of the planets, which planet would 1714 01:31:31,560 --> 01:31:35,759 Speaker 1: you travel to? And why? That is a tough question. 1715 01:31:36,200 --> 01:31:37,840 Speaker 1: We've got to go next level with you, man. I mean, 1716 01:31:37,880 --> 01:31:39,880 Speaker 1: you've been around the block here, so I want to 1717 01:31:39,880 --> 01:31:43,640 Speaker 1: see the rings around Saturn, around Satura, okay, sitting on 1718 01:31:43,720 --> 01:31:47,200 Speaker 1: that planet, to see how those rings look from that perspective. 1719 01:31:47,200 --> 01:31:51,200 Speaker 1: I guess what is your most treasured possession? I have 1720 01:31:51,280 --> 01:31:53,400 Speaker 1: to go with my kids, I mean God and there 1721 01:31:53,520 --> 01:31:55,240 Speaker 1: they pretty much make me who I am now. So 1722 01:31:56,600 --> 01:31:58,880 Speaker 1: I don't know, you know what I would be? Okay, 1723 01:31:59,000 --> 01:32:01,679 Speaker 1: your children is good. If you could have a magical power, 1724 01:32:01,800 --> 01:32:04,479 Speaker 1: which magical power would you choose? I actually read this 1725 01:32:05,280 --> 01:32:08,559 Speaker 1: joke about you just whatever you think, you reach into 1726 01:32:08,600 --> 01:32:10,559 Speaker 1: your pocket and it'll be there. So like money wise 1727 01:32:10,680 --> 01:32:14,200 Speaker 1: or anything from out to eat and I need thirteen dollars, 1728 01:32:14,200 --> 01:32:16,040 Speaker 1: I reach in my pocket and pull out thirteen dollars. 1729 01:32:16,160 --> 01:32:17,840 Speaker 1: If I need a car, or reach in my pocket 1730 01:32:17,840 --> 01:32:19,400 Speaker 1: and pull out keys. So I think that'll be a 1731 01:32:19,479 --> 01:32:22,000 Speaker 1: magic I guess that's a good trick. I'd go with that. 1732 01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:25,040 Speaker 1: That's pretty solid. Okay, what advice would you give your 1733 01:32:25,080 --> 01:32:28,920 Speaker 1: sixteen year old self? Don't change it, keep keep doing 1734 01:32:29,000 --> 01:32:31,320 Speaker 1: what you're doing. Don't don't stress out too much. You're 1735 01:32:31,520 --> 01:32:35,040 Speaker 1: Las's going to be good. Good advice. What's your favorite dinosaur? 1736 01:32:35,479 --> 01:32:38,600 Speaker 1: My son watches?

I suppose you could. 1740 01:32:50,080 --> 01:32:52,040 Speaker 1: I don't know if humans would be able to understand you, 1741 01:32:52,400 --> 01:32:54,960 Speaker 1: but other dragons might. Owning a dragon and you will 1742 01:32:54,960 --> 01:32:58,840 Speaker 1: be pretty awesome.

When you watch a game, 1873 01:40:44,040 --> 01:40:47,360 Speaker 1: sometimes one of the things you don't always see is 1874 01:40:47,479 --> 01:40:52,559 Speaker 1: the distance from FURTHEST receiver the FURTHEST receiver. Some teams 1875 01:40:52,640 --> 01:40:55,920 Speaker 1: you see are really condensed teams. Some teams you see 1876 01:40:56,000 --> 01:40:58,840 Speaker 1: are really spread out.

But the Texans, they use all fifty three 1882 01:41:18,200 --> 01:41:22,880 Speaker 1: yards of the width of the field. Second in the league. 1883 01:41:22,960 --> 01:41:25,080 Speaker 1: I think it's not the Patriots. I can't remember who 1884 01:41:25,120 --> 01:41:27,040 Speaker 1: the other team made, the Falcons, I can't remember who 1885 01:41:27,080 --> 01:41:29,559 Speaker 1: is number one, But the Texans are number two as 1886 01:41:29,600 --> 01:41:33,120 Speaker 1: having the furthest distance between receivers because they got all 1887 01:41:33,120 --> 01:41:35,880 Speaker 1: that speed trying to space teams out and use it 1888 01:41:35,960 --> 01:41:39,519 Speaker 1: and fly up and down the field.

Yeah, two things 1942 01:44:18,439 --> 01:44:22,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna recap our thoughts on no movement, no major 1943 01:44:22,240 --> 01:44:24,760 Speaker 1: movement by the Texans at the deadline, and we're gonna 1944 01:44:24,760 --> 01:44:27,840 Speaker 1: get ready for the first rookie quarterback the Texans have 1945 01:44:27,960 --> 01:44:30,360 Speaker 1: seen this season. It seems like the last few years 1946 01:44:30,800 --> 01:44:33,360 Speaker 1: it's been a revolving door of guys that they've seen three, 1947 01:44:33,560 --> 01:44:37,040 Speaker 1: four or five times per year and based on the 1948 01:44:37,160 --> 01:44:39,479 Speaker 1: start not getting that. But let's let's begin with this 1949 01:44:39,600 --> 01:44:43,880 Speaker 1: trade deadline. The word on the street by folks who 1950 01:44:43,920 --> 01:44:46,519 Speaker 1: are kind of you know that no things say. The 1951 01:44:46,640 --> 01:44:49,519 Speaker 1: Texans did not make the deal with the Packers for 1952 01:44:49,640 --> 01:44:53,800 Speaker 1: will Fuller because the Packers were offering a fourth and 1953 01:44:54,080 --> 01:44:58,560 Speaker 1: they wanted the Texans to pay Fuller's salary. And you 1954 01:44:58,640 --> 01:45:01,360 Speaker 1: and I texted about this awful. I had some choice 1955 01:45:01,400 --> 01:45:04,160 Speaker 1: words about it, and I'm glad the Texans didn't do 1956 01:45:04,280 --> 01:45:06,719 Speaker 1: that because there's all these people saying, well, you gotta 1957 01:45:06,720 --> 01:45:08,200 Speaker 1: get something for Hm, you gotta get something for him. 1958 01:45:08,840 --> 01:45:12,360 Speaker 1: Are you going to get even if it's just nine 1959 01:45:12,439 --> 01:45:14,880 Speaker 1: games worth of will Fuller? But are you going to 1960 01:45:15,040 --> 01:45:19,120 Speaker 1: get those nine games out of a fourth round pick? 1961 01:45:19,320 --> 01:45:22,519 Speaker 1: You could, yes, like as far as value, but are 1962 01:45:22,560 --> 01:45:26,080 Speaker 1: you really are you banking on that sort of success? 1963 01:45:26,160 --> 01:45:28,040 Speaker 1: And I know will Fuller has had his injury history. 1964 01:45:28,080 --> 01:45:31,240 Speaker 1: It's been infuriating to no one more so than him. 1965 01:45:32,200 --> 01:45:35,000 Speaker 1: I know will Fuller might be gone soon. But just 1966 01:45:35,160 --> 01:45:36,880 Speaker 1: to make a move, to make a move to get 1967 01:45:37,040 --> 01:45:39,840 Speaker 1: something and it's really not anything. Romeo Crinells said it 1968 01:45:39,960 --> 01:45:45,719 Speaker 1: best peanuts. That's what they're offering. So it wasn't just peanuts. 1969 01:45:45,760 --> 01:45:48,599 Speaker 1: Are offering peanuts and you had to pay for the peanuts. 1970 01:45:49,479 --> 01:45:52,200 Speaker 1: Through that, I'm fine with it. Let's go because you 1971 01:45:52,240 --> 01:45:54,519 Speaker 1: don't have a one or two. There's no point in tanking. 1972 01:45:54,560 --> 01:45:57,760 Speaker 1: There's no value in tanking. And we heard the man 1973 01:45:57,840 --> 01:45:59,960 Speaker 1: in charge of it all, call McNair on the interview 1974 01:46:00,120 --> 01:46:02,479 Speaker 1: Mark a few days ago, say we're gonna fight, We're 1975 01:46:02,479 --> 01:46:04,439 Speaker 1: gonna keep on playing, we're gonna we want to win, 1976 01:46:04,520 --> 01:46:06,479 Speaker 1: we want to go to the playoffs. Now it's gonna 1977 01:46:06,479 --> 01:46:09,000 Speaker 1: be tough to happen, probably won't happen. But I like 1978 01:46:09,120 --> 01:46:11,040 Speaker 1: to fight. I like that you're not giving up on 1979 01:46:11,200 --> 01:46:14,280 Speaker 1: things just to give up on them, because there's no 1980 01:46:14,479 --> 01:46:17,000 Speaker 1: value in a fourth round pick for what you could 1981 01:46:17,120 --> 01:46:19,600 Speaker 1: have and what you can do with Will Fuller. And 1982 01:46:19,640 --> 01:46:21,640 Speaker 1: he might still be here, he might still be here 1983 01:46:21,720 --> 01:46:24,599 Speaker 1: longer term. So well, you bring up you bring up 1984 01:46:24,600 --> 01:46:28,040 Speaker 1: a great point, Drew. And it's funny. I heard the 1985 01:46:28,080 --> 01:46:31,120 Speaker 1: guys in sixthen Acres, Landry and John talking about this. 1986 01:46:31,560 --> 01:46:35,800 Speaker 1: They said, think about if you got pregnant in and 1987 01:46:35,880 --> 01:46:40,320 Speaker 1: around March and then for some reason you had to 1988 01:46:40,360 --> 01:46:42,320 Speaker 1: be bedridden, but you couldn't file any of the news 1989 01:46:42,439 --> 01:46:44,000 Speaker 1: or whatever the case might be. But then nine and 1990 01:46:44,040 --> 01:46:45,920 Speaker 1: a half months later you wake up and you're like, oh, 1991 01:46:46,000 --> 01:46:48,960 Speaker 1: how do my Texans look? You know, Deshaun Watson's got 1992 01:46:49,000 --> 01:46:51,280 Speaker 1: his two best receivers, Janry Hopkins and Will Fuller, and 1993 01:46:51,720 --> 01:46:53,599 Speaker 1: and they're like, nope, they traded both them in those 1994 01:46:53,640 --> 01:46:57,240 Speaker 1: nine half months. Like, so that's one thing. You know, 1995 01:46:57,360 --> 01:47:00,720 Speaker 1: Will has made the progression in to what a number 1996 01:47:00,760 --> 01:47:03,360 Speaker 1: one wide receiver is supposed to be. Yeah, so that's 1997 01:47:03,400 --> 01:47:07,200 Speaker 1: one thing thing. Now, can you pay him? You don't know. 1998 01:47:08,160 --> 01:47:10,960 Speaker 1: You may, but you have options available to You have 1999 01:47:11,040 --> 01:47:13,479 Speaker 1: the franchise tag, you have that, you have the transition 2000 01:47:13,560 --> 01:47:15,240 Speaker 1: tag as well. You have you have a number different 2001 01:47:15,240 --> 01:47:18,439 Speaker 1: options financially. There's also you can get an extension done 2002 01:47:18,479 --> 01:47:20,840 Speaker 1: with him. Now. I don't know how expensive it'll be, 2003 01:47:21,640 --> 01:47:26,040 Speaker 1: but Deshaun Watson loves thrown to Will Fuller, and when 2004 01:47:26,120 --> 01:47:29,519 Speaker 1: Will Fuller is healthy, he changes what this offense can do. 2005 01:47:29,800 --> 01:47:33,120 Speaker 1: And I've always got the impression that Will likes this organization, 2006 01:47:33,280 --> 01:47:35,519 Speaker 1: likes being in Houston, and likes playing alongside the Sean 2007 01:47:35,560 --> 01:47:39,080 Speaker 1: and the other receivers. So I think there are things 2008 01:47:39,200 --> 01:47:42,439 Speaker 1: that this organization must do going into twenty twenty one. 2009 01:47:44,479 --> 01:47:46,920 Speaker 1: So yeah, they've definitely got to do that. But I 2010 01:47:47,040 --> 01:47:51,000 Speaker 1: think from the standpoint of doing it now just so 2011 01:47:51,160 --> 01:47:52,960 Speaker 1: you can get a fourth or a fifth round pick 2012 01:47:53,000 --> 01:47:54,840 Speaker 1: in the twenty twenty one dropt makes no sense. Oh 2013 01:47:54,880 --> 01:47:56,360 Speaker 1: and by the way, you gotta pay for it. No, no, no, 2014 01:47:57,000 --> 01:47:59,080 Speaker 1: And the other the other aspect is okay, Well, let's 2015 01:47:59,080 --> 01:48:02,840 Speaker 1: say you don't get a trade for Will Fuller and 2016 01:48:02,960 --> 01:48:07,400 Speaker 1: he signs somewhere else. There's a possibility of getting as 2017 01:48:07,680 --> 01:48:11,360 Speaker 1: high as a third round compensatory pick for Will. So 2018 01:48:11,560 --> 01:48:15,479 Speaker 1: why would you trade to get a fourth? Yes, it's 2019 01:48:15,520 --> 01:48:17,880 Speaker 1: a year earlier, but why would you trade a fourth 2020 01:48:19,120 --> 01:48:21,479 Speaker 1: when if you try and work things out with him 2021 01:48:21,479 --> 01:48:24,480 Speaker 1: but it doesn't get done, you get a third potentially 2022 01:48:25,200 --> 01:48:28,800 Speaker 1: from a compensatory standpoint. So from that, I just really 2023 01:48:28,840 --> 01:48:33,519 Speaker 1: appreciated the Texans standing pat on that. I'm not totally 2024 01:48:33,640 --> 01:48:36,599 Speaker 1: surprised that the Texans didn't make a ton of moves. 2025 01:48:36,800 --> 01:48:39,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I think Romeo O'Connell said it best. It's 2026 01:48:39,120 --> 01:48:40,960 Speaker 1: a phrase I'd like to use. Look, it takes two 2027 01:48:41,040 --> 01:48:44,320 Speaker 1: to tango, and I think the packers and the Texans 2028 01:48:44,479 --> 01:48:47,160 Speaker 1: deal for Will Fuller. I think that's a perfect example. 2029 01:48:47,240 --> 01:48:49,000 Speaker 1: It's like they were listening to one song, we were 2030 01:48:49,040 --> 01:48:51,800 Speaker 1: listening to another, and we weren't able to dance like that. 2031 01:48:51,960 --> 01:48:53,280 Speaker 1: And I think it went that way for a couple 2032 01:48:53,280 --> 01:48:55,920 Speaker 1: of players. Apparently the Seahawks wanted to get back Jacob 2033 01:48:55,960 --> 01:48:58,840 Speaker 1: Martin because they trade him into contigue. I mean, thinking 2034 01:48:58,840 --> 01:49:01,040 Speaker 1: about Seattle, they didn't really. I mean, they get rid 2035 01:49:01,080 --> 01:49:02,920 Speaker 1: of Clowney, they get rid of a third round pick, 2036 01:49:03,000 --> 01:49:04,640 Speaker 1: they get rid of Jacob Martin, they get rid of 2037 01:49:04,760 --> 01:49:07,439 Speaker 1: mingo mingoes with the Bears. Now Martin's doing well with us, 2038 01:49:07,479 --> 01:49:08,960 Speaker 1: a mingo is playing for you well with the Bears. 2039 01:49:09,640 --> 01:49:11,680 Speaker 1: And then we use that third round pick. And the 2040 01:49:11,760 --> 01:49:14,760 Speaker 1: Seahawks got nothing out of that. They got absolutely zilch. 2041 01:49:14,840 --> 01:49:17,120 Speaker 1: I mean, they got twelve games or twelve thirteen games 2042 01:49:17,160 --> 01:49:18,560 Speaker 1: out of Clowney and then he bounced and went to 2043 01:49:18,640 --> 01:49:22,320 Speaker 1: Tennessee and Tennessee's not getting much. But I'm not totally 2044 01:49:22,400 --> 01:49:26,400 Speaker 1: surprised in that, because I think when you look at 2045 01:49:26,479 --> 01:49:30,640 Speaker 1: this roster of the Texans, you can say, yeah, that 2046 01:49:30,800 --> 01:49:33,240 Speaker 1: guy might have been a candidate for a trade, but 2047 01:49:33,560 --> 01:49:35,800 Speaker 1: you're not gonna do it because either he makes too 2048 01:49:35,880 --> 01:49:39,120 Speaker 1: much money, maybe he's a little bit older, Maybe it's 2049 01:49:39,160 --> 01:49:41,479 Speaker 1: just not the right fit. Or maybe you have a 2050 01:49:41,560 --> 01:49:44,000 Speaker 1: higher value in that player than other teams, or you know, 2051 01:49:44,120 --> 01:49:46,000 Speaker 1: maybe it's reversed. Maybe they have a lower value in 2052 01:49:46,040 --> 01:49:47,639 Speaker 1: a guy and they really wanted to kind of steal 2053 01:49:47,720 --> 01:49:49,479 Speaker 1: them from you in some sense, and you're just like, no, 2054 01:49:49,600 --> 01:49:51,800 Speaker 1: we're not We're not going to do that. If we 2055 01:49:51,880 --> 01:49:53,560 Speaker 1: want to make moves, we can make moves in the 2056 01:49:53,880 --> 01:49:56,439 Speaker 1: off season. We can trade guys in the off season 2057 01:49:56,680 --> 01:49:58,960 Speaker 1: starting in March. Yeah, in new GM and the new 2058 01:49:59,040 --> 01:50:01,640 Speaker 1: head coach, let them plan what they're gonna do going forward. Well, 2059 01:50:01,640 --> 01:50:03,800 Speaker 1: that's what's gonna say. Maybe I'm living in La la land. 2060 01:50:03,880 --> 01:50:07,280 Speaker 1: There's a very good possibility of that. But let's see 2061 01:50:07,320 --> 01:50:10,320 Speaker 1: who this new GM is. Let's see what he can do. 2062 01:50:10,560 --> 01:50:13,759 Speaker 1: Maybe he is a guy who can move some things around, 2063 01:50:14,120 --> 01:50:17,160 Speaker 1: and can think long term, and can manipulate some some 2064 01:50:17,479 --> 01:50:19,639 Speaker 1: salary cap stuff, and can find a way to keep 2065 01:50:20,040 --> 01:50:22,559 Speaker 1: a guy who is a I mean O'Brien was right. 2066 01:50:22,800 --> 01:50:24,519 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien made a lot of wrong moves, but he 2067 01:50:24,600 --> 01:50:27,559 Speaker 1: was right when he said Will Fuller is a touchdown maker. 2068 01:50:27,880 --> 01:50:30,320 Speaker 1: I mean, he's he's what do they have twenty one 2069 01:50:30,400 --> 01:50:33,360 Speaker 1: touchdowns now in forty nine career games something like that, 2070 01:50:33,800 --> 01:50:36,200 Speaker 1: It's an excellent ratio. Now he's got to keep staying healthy. 2071 01:50:36,360 --> 01:50:38,640 Speaker 1: And I know we haven't seen the full product this 2072 01:50:38,760 --> 01:50:42,000 Speaker 1: year as far as health, but he's on his way. 2073 01:50:42,200 --> 01:50:44,080 Speaker 1: Maybe he's turning the corny. It was a lot of weird, 2074 01:50:44,360 --> 01:50:47,559 Speaker 1: freakish injuries to start his career. But maybe I'm living 2075 01:50:47,600 --> 01:50:49,559 Speaker 1: in a la la land, But I want to give 2076 01:50:49,600 --> 01:50:50,840 Speaker 1: it a chance. I want to see if there's a 2077 01:50:50,840 --> 01:50:54,880 Speaker 1: way to keep him around, because this guy turns defenses 2078 01:50:55,040 --> 01:50:57,320 Speaker 1: on their ears. And I think with a new system, 2079 01:50:57,720 --> 01:51:00,439 Speaker 1: a new new new folk, new new guy in in place, 2080 01:51:00,760 --> 01:51:04,240 Speaker 1: with that quarterback, those tackles, I like what the future 2081 01:51:04,280 --> 01:51:06,080 Speaker 1: could hold. I don't know you bring You bring up 2082 01:51:06,120 --> 01:51:09,240 Speaker 1: a great point with Drew because I'm thinking about Will. 2083 01:51:09,320 --> 01:51:12,080 Speaker 1: Sorry I almost called you Will Fuller. Okay, But one 2084 01:51:12,120 --> 01:51:15,120 Speaker 1: of the things that I had noticed that in fact, 2085 01:51:15,160 --> 01:51:17,840 Speaker 1: I was watching the Chiefs game today has watching the 2086 01:51:18,000 --> 01:51:19,560 Speaker 1: Chiefs and Jets. I like to watch the Chiefs and 2087 01:51:19,600 --> 01:51:22,360 Speaker 1: see what kind of new things are doing and and man, 2088 01:51:22,560 --> 01:51:25,080 Speaker 1: I really like watching their offense. But one of the 2089 01:51:25,200 --> 01:51:27,479 Speaker 1: things that you can tell is the game is not 2090 01:51:27,640 --> 01:51:30,560 Speaker 1: gonna get slower, It's only gonna get faster. Yeah, So 2091 01:51:30,600 --> 01:51:32,160 Speaker 1: why would you want to get rid of the fastest 2092 01:51:32,200 --> 01:51:33,880 Speaker 1: guy in the league, one of the fastest guys in 2093 01:51:33,920 --> 01:51:39,280 Speaker 1: the league, you know, Bingo, fastest guy on your team. Absolutely, absolutely, 2094 01:51:39,360 --> 01:51:43,559 Speaker 1: And we've seen we've seen this team with three four 2095 01:51:44,000 --> 01:51:46,320 Speaker 1: guys on the outside that can really run. I mean, 2096 01:51:46,439 --> 01:51:49,240 Speaker 1: Randall Cop can still really run and get open in 2097 01:51:49,320 --> 01:51:51,799 Speaker 1: the areas that he can't. But Cooks can run, Fuller 2098 01:51:51,840 --> 01:51:54,680 Speaker 1: can run. Um, you know, Kenny Stills we know can run. 2099 01:51:55,479 --> 01:51:57,720 Speaker 1: And it's making a difference in the passing game. If 2100 01:51:57,800 --> 01:52:01,040 Speaker 1: we could find some running game balance to go with it, 2101 01:52:01,760 --> 01:52:05,920 Speaker 1: this offense would be dangerous, dangerous. Now, you got to 2102 01:52:05,960 --> 01:52:07,599 Speaker 1: fix the defense side of the ball, there's no question 2103 01:52:07,640 --> 01:52:09,760 Speaker 1: about that. A lot of work to do. But I 2104 01:52:09,840 --> 01:52:14,960 Speaker 1: don't I don't think that getting trading Will is the 2105 01:52:15,080 --> 01:52:18,599 Speaker 1: right thing to helping your team get better in the future, 2106 01:52:18,680 --> 01:52:20,400 Speaker 1: even I don't think he's got a lot of great 2107 01:52:20,439 --> 01:52:23,640 Speaker 1: football play. Yeah, don't help your defense if you're subtracting 2108 01:52:23,720 --> 01:52:26,120 Speaker 1: from your offense and keeping it off, you know. Anyway, 2109 01:52:26,600 --> 01:52:29,880 Speaker 1: let's talk about a rookie quarterback. Thanks all rightness, After 2110 01:52:30,080 --> 01:52:32,719 Speaker 1: a murderer's row. Think about this, John, So the Texans 2111 01:52:32,760 --> 01:52:35,400 Speaker 1: get the one win in the first seven games. Yeah, 2112 01:52:35,520 --> 01:52:38,479 Speaker 1: he's come against It comes against a team quarterback by 2113 01:52:38,520 --> 01:52:40,400 Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew, who may not be done in this league. 2114 01:52:40,400 --> 01:52:42,599 Speaker 1: You know, he might still have a future. He's played 2115 01:52:42,640 --> 01:52:46,200 Speaker 1: well against the Texans at times. Other than that, every 2116 01:52:46,400 --> 01:52:49,719 Speaker 1: other quarterback they faced has at least one Pro Bowl 2117 01:52:49,800 --> 01:52:52,840 Speaker 1: on his resume. Now, okay, well, lots of people get 2118 01:52:52,840 --> 01:52:55,519 Speaker 1: into Pro Bowl. Okay, but crappy guys don't get in 2119 01:52:55,560 --> 01:52:58,000 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl. I mean that argument. And then on 2120 01:52:58,080 --> 01:52:59,960 Speaker 1: top of that, let's talk about the Hall of Fame 2121 01:53:00,000 --> 01:53:02,519 Speaker 1: as they did player in Rogers. He's gonna be in 2122 01:53:02,520 --> 01:53:05,080 Speaker 1: the whole fame, I would say. Ben Roethlisberger probably gonna 2123 01:53:05,080 --> 01:53:07,320 Speaker 1: be in the whole fame right Probably the way he's playing. 2124 01:53:07,520 --> 01:53:12,200 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes gonna be there someday. Yeah, the way he's playing. 2125 01:53:13,360 --> 01:53:15,640 Speaker 1: Maybe Lamar Jackson. I mean, they have gone through a 2126 01:53:15,840 --> 01:53:19,760 Speaker 1: murderers row of quarterback quarterbacks. Kirk Cousins, he's been to 2127 01:53:19,800 --> 01:53:21,920 Speaker 1: a Pro Bowl, so you know he's not the best. 2128 01:53:21,960 --> 01:53:25,160 Speaker 1: He's not, but he is better than average. It looks 2129 01:53:25,200 --> 01:53:27,880 Speaker 1: like it might start to turn here with these final 2130 01:53:28,040 --> 01:53:30,840 Speaker 1: nine and it starts to turn drastically because you've got 2131 01:53:30,960 --> 01:53:36,840 Speaker 1: Jake Luton with Jacksonville. What's the main worry with the 2132 01:53:36,960 --> 01:53:39,120 Speaker 1: facing a guy like this and what's the main thing 2133 01:53:39,200 --> 01:53:41,840 Speaker 1: you get to feast on? You think John Well and 2134 01:53:42,000 --> 01:53:44,800 Speaker 1: the biggest worry in watching you know, just watching him 2135 01:53:44,920 --> 01:53:49,600 Speaker 1: last year, Um, he's got a cannon. I mean, his 2136 01:53:49,920 --> 01:53:53,000 Speaker 1: arm strength you can put on par with anybody that 2137 01:53:53,120 --> 01:53:55,360 Speaker 1: they've played. And I know it sounds sort of sort 2138 01:53:55,360 --> 01:53:58,679 Speaker 1: of foolish, but like really, yeah, he's one foolish last 2139 01:53:58,720 --> 01:54:02,479 Speaker 1: year against true Locke one. Well, that's where I'm going 2140 01:54:02,560 --> 01:54:05,840 Speaker 1: with this too, because I don't think the Texans really 2141 01:54:05,920 --> 01:54:12,960 Speaker 1: truly understood the the strength that Locke had in his arms. 2142 01:54:13,000 --> 01:54:14,280 Speaker 1: And I think you know, the first play of the 2143 01:54:14,320 --> 01:54:16,120 Speaker 1: game was to throw to a fan on the sideline 2144 01:54:16,160 --> 01:54:19,479 Speaker 1: and Jjo had it read the whole way, but he 2145 01:54:19,640 --> 01:54:21,519 Speaker 1: made the break. But it's like that ball got there 2146 01:54:21,600 --> 01:54:23,560 Speaker 1: so fast that you know, when he was trying to 2147 01:54:23,640 --> 01:54:25,400 Speaker 1: time his break with when the ball was coming out, 2148 01:54:25,439 --> 01:54:27,720 Speaker 1: that ball was whistling into him and he missed it 2149 01:54:27,880 --> 01:54:29,519 Speaker 1: and fan turns up the field and it was like 2150 01:54:29,600 --> 01:54:31,519 Speaker 1: that kind of broke the damn early on to be 2151 01:54:31,600 --> 01:54:34,680 Speaker 1: honest with you. So they've got to know that he's 2152 01:54:34,680 --> 01:54:36,440 Speaker 1: got a big arm, and he's not afraid to throw 2153 01:54:36,560 --> 01:54:38,200 Speaker 1: from one hash all the way the other side of 2154 01:54:38,240 --> 01:54:41,280 Speaker 1: the field and vice first. I mean, he doesn't mind 2155 01:54:41,360 --> 01:54:42,560 Speaker 1: doing that. I mean I saw him do that a 2156 01:54:42,680 --> 01:54:44,520 Speaker 1: number of times in Oregon State. Or he'd be on 2157 01:54:44,600 --> 01:54:46,680 Speaker 1: the right hat hash and it'd be like a three 2158 01:54:46,800 --> 01:54:49,080 Speaker 1: or four yard route into the end zone and he'd 2159 01:54:49,120 --> 01:54:51,000 Speaker 1: throw it all the way to the other sideline, which 2160 01:54:51,240 --> 01:54:56,000 Speaker 1: is at least at least in college, it was like 2161 01:54:56,120 --> 01:54:58,280 Speaker 1: thirty seven to thirty eight yards in the air on 2162 01:54:58,400 --> 01:55:00,840 Speaker 1: a line. So he's got a good arm. He's got 2163 01:55:00,880 --> 01:55:03,320 Speaker 1: a big boy arm. Okay, yes, that's something. A big 2164 01:55:03,360 --> 01:55:06,320 Speaker 1: boy arm. And he's got a big boy arm. I 2165 01:55:06,400 --> 01:55:11,160 Speaker 1: mean that's it. So that that's you know, he's got composure. 2166 01:55:11,520 --> 01:55:13,840 Speaker 1: He's faced adversity. You know, he kind of bounced around 2167 01:55:13,880 --> 01:55:15,720 Speaker 1: a few different schools. He started Idaho and he went 2168 01:55:15,760 --> 01:55:19,400 Speaker 1: to Venture Community College, then he ended up with Oregon State, 2169 01:55:20,000 --> 01:55:21,520 Speaker 1: you know, and then in the final year kind of clicked. 2170 01:55:21,520 --> 01:55:23,160 Speaker 1: He's a lot like Gardner Mitchell that way. You know 2171 01:55:23,240 --> 01:55:25,120 Speaker 1: the fact that he kind of bounced around and then 2172 01:55:25,200 --> 01:55:28,000 Speaker 1: ended up in Oregon State, and then last year twenty nineteen, Yeah, 2173 01:55:28,000 --> 01:55:29,880 Speaker 1: pretty good year. Joonpon Smith took over his head coach 2174 01:55:29,920 --> 01:55:33,200 Speaker 1: and kind of clicked. But you just don't know, I mean, 2175 01:55:33,760 --> 01:55:35,760 Speaker 1: you know from that perspective. Yeah, he's got a big arm. 2176 01:55:35,800 --> 01:55:37,280 Speaker 1: So there's a lot of throws they can expect them 2177 01:55:37,280 --> 01:55:39,400 Speaker 1: to make. I would expect them in the first series 2178 01:55:39,800 --> 01:55:42,520 Speaker 1: or two they'll take a shot to DJ Chark down 2179 01:55:42,560 --> 01:55:46,960 Speaker 1: the field. No, I have no doubt about that. They 2180 01:55:47,040 --> 01:55:48,920 Speaker 1: will throw the ball down the field of DJ Chark 2181 01:55:48,960 --> 01:55:51,760 Speaker 1: at least once to just let him kind of get 2182 01:55:51,840 --> 01:55:54,360 Speaker 1: the angst out and just launch it. Just go. It's 2183 01:55:54,400 --> 01:55:55,880 Speaker 1: one of my favorite things to do with the quarterback. 2184 01:55:55,880 --> 01:55:57,160 Speaker 1: I don't care if he's got a big arm or not, 2185 01:55:57,280 --> 01:55:58,680 Speaker 1: but if he has a big arm, it's even better. 2186 01:55:59,000 --> 01:56:02,200 Speaker 1: Just let him air it out. Max protect two man route. 2187 01:56:02,920 --> 01:56:05,040 Speaker 1: One guy's on one side of the field and Chart's 2188 01:56:05,080 --> 01:56:06,800 Speaker 1: just blazing down the middle. I don't care if they've 2189 01:56:06,800 --> 01:56:08,520 Speaker 1: got eight guys back there. Just let it all go 2190 01:56:08,640 --> 01:56:11,160 Speaker 1: and see if Chark comes up with something. So that's 2191 01:56:11,240 --> 01:56:13,480 Speaker 1: kind of what I expect from him now. The flip 2192 01:56:13,560 --> 01:56:16,840 Speaker 1: side is when you face a rookie quarterback, there's gonna 2193 01:56:16,840 --> 01:56:19,160 Speaker 1: be some coverages and things that he's never seen before. 2194 01:56:19,640 --> 01:56:22,920 Speaker 1: And I got a feeling Anthony Weaver is gonna love 2195 01:56:22,960 --> 01:56:25,320 Speaker 1: seeing a rookie quarterback because he's gonna show him some 2196 01:56:25,440 --> 01:56:28,720 Speaker 1: coverages and some disguises that he's never seen. And so 2197 01:56:28,960 --> 01:56:31,040 Speaker 1: he's liable to get locked in on a receiver and 2198 01:56:31,200 --> 01:56:34,200 Speaker 1: throw you a pick, maybe two. And in a game 2199 01:56:34,320 --> 01:56:37,440 Speaker 1: like this visional game, you get a couple turnovers like 2200 01:56:37,480 --> 01:56:39,280 Speaker 1: we did in that first match up with them. Who 2201 01:56:39,360 --> 01:56:40,920 Speaker 1: knows how this thing turns, And that's kind of the 2202 01:56:41,000 --> 01:56:44,400 Speaker 1: hope is that he hasn't seen that. Because he hasn't 2203 01:56:44,400 --> 01:56:47,240 Speaker 1: seen that, then he's gonna make some mistakes. That way, 2204 01:56:47,280 --> 01:56:48,600 Speaker 1: he might hurt you with the deep ball on his 2205 01:56:48,720 --> 01:56:51,920 Speaker 1: big arm, But from the standpoint of what he has 2206 01:56:51,960 --> 01:56:56,280 Speaker 1: seen before, you can maybe trick him and lure him 2207 01:56:56,400 --> 01:56:58,760 Speaker 1: in with something and he's like, oh that zone, No, 2208 01:56:58,920 --> 01:57:01,040 Speaker 1: it's man, oh a throw a pick. You know. That's 2209 01:57:01,080 --> 01:57:02,280 Speaker 1: the kind of thing that you hope to be able 2210 01:57:02,280 --> 01:57:04,080 Speaker 1: to be able to do. That was fun in the 2211 01:57:04,240 --> 01:57:06,360 Speaker 1: lab that Drew an I did.

How many times have you 2224 01:57:48,040 --> 01:57:50,280 Speaker 1: heard that one? More than once? I bet, because it 2225 01:57:50,400 --> 01:57:53,240 Speaker 1: just adds up. For example, there are two, not one, 2226 01:57:53,400 --> 01:57:56,440 Speaker 1: great reasons to fill up with Chevron with Techron number 2227 01:57:56,480 --> 01:58:00,360 Speaker 1: one unbeatable cleaning power and number two, or maybe this 2228 01:58:00,400 --> 01:58:04,480 Speaker 1: should be number one unbeatable mileage. Plus Chevron puts Tekron 2229 01:58:04,560 --> 01:58:08,120 Speaker 1: in every grade every gallant of their gasoline. So that's two, 2230 01:58:08,480 --> 01:58:11,200 Speaker 1: no way, three unbeatable reasons to go with the one 2231 01:58:11,240 --> 01:58:15,280 Speaker 1: and only Chevron with Tekron care for your car.
