1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 1: Countdown to kickoff continues the Houston Texans and the Jacksonville Jaguars.

2
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:08,320
Speaker 1: It's a one o'clock kickoff time at Everbanks Stadium, Jacksonville, Florida.

3
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:13,920
Speaker 1: In Week three. AFC South Divisional rivalry renewed and DP

4
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:18,640
Speaker 1: Sidhu of the Houston Texans Insider and senior writer, lead writer.

5
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:23,480
Speaker 1: She does everything for the Houston Texans and Houston Texans

6
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 1: dot Com. It's great to visit with you, and here

7
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: we are back again for a Texans Jaguars matchup.

8
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 2: I mean, it's always beginning of the season, the end

9
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:33,240
Speaker 2: of the season. It's always a battle.

10
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 3: And I actually love these division games because I feel

11
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:38,600
Speaker 3: like these two teams know each other so well, and

12
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 3: even though the Texans look completely different from what they

13
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 3: looked like last year, it's always, I think, a really

14
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 3: good test when you go again up against a team

15
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,559
Speaker 3: like the Jags, who have had the most consistency in

16
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,279
Speaker 3: the last few years in the division, it seems like,

17
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 3: and they've been through some rough years themselves, so I

18
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 3: think seeing Trevor Lawrence, Doug Peterson in the second year,

19
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 3: seeing some of this such a young Jags team playing

20
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 3: them in Jacksonville, it's it's always a lot of fun.

21
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 2: Cannot wait.

22
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 1: Wet's start with the head coach, Tamiko Ryans obviously played

23
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 1: there in Houston, a longtime linebacker in the NFL and

24
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,960
Speaker 1: really cut his teeth in San Francisco as an assistant coach.

25
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 1: It's tough sledding early in this season. It's going to

26
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: be a long build here for Demiko. But what is

27
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: the tolerance the patients around Houston for him and as

28
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:28,839
Speaker 1: he puts this organization together.

29
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 2: I mean, we'll see.

30
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 3: I think that there is more tolerance around Demiko Ryans

31
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 3: just because he's not just some guy that you brought

32
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 3: in from the coaching process. People have seen what he's

33
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 3: able to do as a player. That he was so

34
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 3: well regarded and so well respected, I mean defensive Rookie of.

35
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 2: The Year, and then when All Pro in.

36
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 3: His second season, Guys like Brian Cushing talked about what

37
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 3: Demiko Ryans meant to his career as a rookie. When

38
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 3: JJ Watt was drafted here in twenty eleven, he said

39
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 3: that he found a house across the street from Demico

40
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 3: Ryans because he said, if Debiko bought a house in

41
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 3: this neighborhood, well there must be something, right, So I'm

42
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 3: going to move across the street and leve across him.

43
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 3: So you know, that's sort of the effect he's had

44
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 3: on the players, and so you just know the fans

45
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 3: and the city has seen that through the years and

46
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 3: even throughout the coaching process, every single team that was

47
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 3: looking for a head coach had put into to interview

48
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 3: Demico Ryans, and he wanted to come to the Texans.

49
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 3: So this was a team sort of left for dead

50
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,919
Speaker 3: the last few years. I mean, you've had three head

51
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 3: coaches in three different years. You know, all your stars

52
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 3: were gone. You've pretty much gone through this rebuild for

53
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 3: the last few years. And of all the teams Demico

54
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 3: Ryans could have gone and coached for, it was this

55
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,079
Speaker 3: Texans team that he wanted to come home to. He

56
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 3: calls Houston home, his wife is from Houston, and I

57
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:53,519
Speaker 3: think that Houstonians have really embraced Demico Ryans as one

58
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 3: of them. And you don't really get to say that

59
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,359
Speaker 3: too much of the NFL, that you got a head

60
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 3: coach that you're excited about because he's from here and

61
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 3: we saw him play and we're really invested in him.

62
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 3: I think that's what it is this city is really

63
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 3: invested in Demko Ryans. So I think that there is

64
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 3: a lot of patience and forgiveness for Demico Ryans because

65
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 3: he's coming into such a tough situation. You know, he's

66
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 3: got a riocky quarterback, he's got a brand new coaching staff,

67
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 3: and people can see the flashes of what.

68
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 2: Is good about this team. Obviously, c J.

69
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,359
Speaker 3: Stroud just played his heart out in Sunday's game against

70
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 3: the Colts. He was actually questionable heading into this game

71
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,799
Speaker 3: against the Colts. He had a shoulder injury. Wasn't sure

72
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 3: if he was going to play all week, unbeknownst to

73
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 3: the rest of us that saw him out at practice,

74
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 3: and then Friday magically shows up, which is the thing

75
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 3: you don't want to see.

76
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 2: You're starting quarterback on the injury report list.

77
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 3: Oh and your left tackles out, and oh three of

78
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 3: your four offense, four of your offensive linemen are out,

79
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 3: three of which you weren't even here in training camp.

80
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 3: So's it's really been tough from the jump for Demiko Ryans.

81
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 3: And even then, his offense played really hard. Now the

82
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 3: defense played really tough.

83
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 2: In Week one. It was a little bit of juckle

84
00:03:58,080 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 2: and Hyde from week one to week two.

85
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 3: You didn't really see the performed that same level in

86
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 3: week two, and there's a little bit of frustration there,

87
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 3: of course, But I think we've seen flashes from both

88
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 3: sides of the ball of what is coming together, what

89
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 3: Dimiko is trying to build. So I think right now

90
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 3: there is a lot of patience for Dimico Ryans. I mean,

91
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 3: the city is not expecting a championship, super Bowl championship

92
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 3: this year. They just want to see some growth. They

93
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 3: want to see some improvement week to week, and I

94
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 3: think Demko is.

95
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 2: The kind of guy that can get either.

96
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 3: I think the players respect the heck out of him

97
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 3: because he's done it. He's done it at a high

98
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 3: level and it wasn't even that long ago that he

99
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 3: was doing it, So you know, I think it's.

100
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:38,360
Speaker 2: A perfect situation.

101
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 3: I think for Texans, fans have a coach that gets

102
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 3: them and they get him as well. So I think

103
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 3: that Dimico Ryans right now. It's certainly people are way

104
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 3: to see with baited breath, and there's still.

105
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 2: A lot of positivity surrounding him.

106
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: Texans Insider with US Are you touched on CJ. Stroud

107
00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,080
Speaker 1: the number two overall pick I called a bunch of

108
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 1: of state games over the last few years. And when

109
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 1: he has time to stand in there and he has

110
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: weapons around him, the guy's a pinpoint passer, big arm.

111
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 1: The question is, with all this offensive line stuff going

112
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 1: on in Houston, will he have that time and how

113
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 1: has he handled that situation so far with a revolving door,

114
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,040
Speaker 1: if you will, on the offensive line. At some point

115
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 1: will that get to a rookies mental state?

116
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,159
Speaker 3: I think the thing with him is he just has

117
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 3: come in with this mentality of a winner. I mean, JP,

118
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 3: you know, I went to Purdue. I do not like

119
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 3: Ohio States, but I have to say they really have

120
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 3: a top notch program. And he's come from Ohio State,

121
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 3: and you know, he's played on such a big platform,

122
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 3: and I don't think he uses anything as an excuse.

123
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,840
Speaker 2: Even the hurt shoulder, the.

124
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,720
Speaker 3: Banged up O line, none of it was an excuse.

125
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 3: And you know, I didn't know what to expect from

126
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 3: him in week two. Week one, he didn't throw any touchdowns.

127
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 3: But Week two, I mean, he threw for three hundred

128
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 3: and eighty four yards. He threw two touchdowns. He's not

129
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 3: had an interception in the first two weeks of play. Now,

130
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 3: there have been some strip sacks, there's been sacks that

131
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 3: he probably shouldn't have taken. There's been some fumbles here

132
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,280
Speaker 3: and there, But as far as is passing everything that

133
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 3: we had heard about him coming out of Ohio State,

134
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 3: Like you said, the pinpoint accuracy ball placement is the

135
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 3: one thing that I heard so much about and you

136
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 3: knowing a lot of people, we were talking about this

137
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,600
Speaker 3: on Texans All Access as well that a lot.

138
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 2: Of people said, Okay, but look at his receivers.

139
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 3: I mean, he's had some. He's had Garrett Wilson, He's

140
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 3: had Marvin Harrison Junior. He's got all these top notch

141
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,840
Speaker 3: receivers that are all like first round draft picks. I mean,

142
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 3: I tell you, he comes in here and he's making

143
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 3: these receivers have the best games of their career.

144
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 2: Nico Collins, who was here in twenty twenty, who has.

145
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 3: Really struggle at times, looked great in camp but just

146
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 3: never really put together standout games, had one hundred and

147
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 3: forty six yards receiving in a touchdown. Tank Dell the

148
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 3: rookie over seventy yards receiving and a touchdown. He's really

149
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 3: made the receiver shine, and it's it's a credit to CJ.

150
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 3: Because with an offensive line is banged up as it is,

151
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 3: even with a veteran quarterback, if he's not able to

152
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 3: throw the ball get the ball out on time, you'd

153
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 3: understand it.

154
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 2: Now.

155
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 3: That's not to say the run game hasn't struggled behind

156
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 3: this O line. Like I don't think they want to

157
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 3: see CJ throwing forty seven times with a hurtz shoulder

158
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 3: like he did against Indianapolis, so that there definitely are

159
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 3: some issues with how do we get this run game going.

160
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 3: But I think CJ's confidence right now is not one

161
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 3: of him. He is hard on himself even when he

162
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 3: does have a great performance because he didn't win. I

163
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 3: think that's the thing that I think the players in

164
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 3: the locker room really respect about him. That's why they

165
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 3: voted him a team captain as a rookie. I think

166
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 3: they see that hunger in him and his drive to win,

167
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 3: and I think mentally he is really really tough. And

168
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 3: you just hope that you get some players back on

169
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 3: the O line and give him a little bit of

170
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 3: time and it shoulder heels up and then see what

171
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 3: he's really able to do.

172
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 1: Dp we know about the past ten to fifteen years

173
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 1: in Houston on the defensive side of the ball, been

174
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 1: some incredible, some of the all time great defensive players

175
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 1: that have played for that organization. And then not only

176
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 1: did you have a number two overall pick quarterback, but

177
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: traded back up to number three and picked up Will

178
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: Anderson from Alabama. Yeah, it's a couple games in. What

179
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 1: do you like about him so far? Is there still

180
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 1: a projection that he could be that next wave of

181
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 1: big time generational defensive player in Houston?

182
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

183
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, you've probably watched a lot of

184
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 3: Alabama games JP. You know what Will Anderson's cape be love.

185
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 3: I think that if there was any people were talking

186
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,960
Speaker 3: about a sure thing in the draft, Will Anderson was it.

187
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 3: And I think we learned really early on in camp.

188
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 3: In fact, Demigo Ryans even said you have to kind

189
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 3: of hold him back because there are no pads, there's

190
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 3: no tackling. But a lot of times in training camp

191
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 3: you'd look, you'd blink, and there he is in the backfield,

192
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 3: just standing there, and you couldn't wait till he was

193
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 3: able to go up against you know, quarterbacks not wearing

194
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 3: a Texans jersey and in Week one. I mean, what

195
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 3: a test to go up against Lamar Jackson. He gets

196
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 3: a sack on him, hurried him six times. I mean

197
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 3: his stat sheet was littered with numbers against the guy

198
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 3: that is tough to bring down, tough to tackle, tough

199
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 3: to corral. And I think that was what really impressed

200
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 3: everyone about Will Anderson Junior, the fact that he's able

201
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,839
Speaker 3: to do that against one of the best quarterbacks in

202
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,359
Speaker 3: the NFL right now at escaping top notch defenders.

203
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 2: The issue with will Anderson is that it wasn't really.

204
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 3: Duplicated in Week two, but that was also the entire defense,

205
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 3: and a lot of that is when you're playing from behind.

206
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 3: The Colts got off to an early fourteen to nothing

207
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 3: lead in the first quarter.

208
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 2: And so that is not what anybody expected.

209
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 3: You're playing from behind, your pass rush isn't really playing

210
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 3: the way it should, You're not as disciplined. Maybe you're

211
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 3: trying to do a little too much to get yourself

212
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 3: back in the game. But I think as far as

213
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 3: Will Anderson's concerned, he is a guy that has was

214
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 3: a leader in the locker room at Alabama, comes in

215
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 3: here and everyone's seen the way that he works his

216
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,439
Speaker 3: work ethic. Tomigo Ryans, who was known for his work ethic,

217
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 3: is talking about a rookie's work ethic and how he

218
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 3: works really hard days after practice. He's just such a

219
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 3: likable guy, great head on his shoulders. And even after

220
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 3: that first game against Baltimore, I asked him if he

221
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:15,679
Speaker 3: got any feedback.

222
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 2: He's got like.

223
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 3: Five older sisters, and he said, yeah, this was an

224
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 3: okay game, but I'm not going to get too excited

225
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:22,960
Speaker 3: because I'm sure next week they'll have something else for

226
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 3: me to say.

227
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:24,680
Speaker 2: Humble as can be.

228
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 3: He definitely has all the physical traits and attributes, and

229
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 3: then on top of that, he works really really hard,

230
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 3: which I think is a combination that can really take

231
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 3: you places in the NFL.

232
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,559
Speaker 2: I think people are very excited about will Anderson.

233
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 3: With him in the mix, offensive coordinators have to, you know,

234
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 3: the hope is playing around him, and then guys like

235
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 3: Jonathan Bernard or Jerry Hughes or guys on the other

236
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 3: side of the D line can get some sacks as well.

237
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 3: But right now, Will Anderson he seems to be everything

238
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 3: as advertised. He just has to put together consistent performances

239
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 3: week over week. But we've certainly seen everything that everyone's

240
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 3: touted about him, and we can see why he was

241
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:03,959
Speaker 3: a number three overall pick.

242
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:08,360
Speaker 1: Well, DP, there's no doubt when you have five sisters,

243
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:09,679
Speaker 1: you're going to get some feedback.

244
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 3: And they used to give him a hard time too,

245
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 3: so he's humble of nothing else. And he said, luckily

246
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 3: they were on the plane so they weren't texting give

247
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 3: him during the game or after the game against Baltimore.

248
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,840
Speaker 2: But he certainly heard from him the next day, so

249
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 2: he was laughing about it.

250
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 3: But you know, you know that he's definitely heard about

251
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 3: it from his family members, that's for sure.

252
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 1: DP City with a Texans insider final thought with it

253
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: just the outside looking in view of the Jaguars, you know,

254
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 1: this this stretch run last year doesn't happen if there's

255
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 1: one fumble in the last five games of the season

256
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 1: that goes the wrong way. But it all went the

257
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 1: right way and they won the division. They added a

258
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,719
Speaker 1: piece or two to a team they feel like was

259
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:57,320
Speaker 1: pretty strong. What's the outside view of the Jags looking in?

260
00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,559
Speaker 3: I mean, I think this Texans team doesn't want to

261
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,719
Speaker 3: give the Jags credit for me the runaway leader of

262
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 3: the AFC South. I mean the rest of the NFL

263
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 3: and the rest of the country may say, Okay, the

264
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 3: Jags are going to get this division.

265
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,080
Speaker 2: You know, the Texans and probably the Colts and the

266
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 2: Titans who are not going to give it to them

267
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 2: so fast. Just yet.

268
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 3: Now with that being said, they all know that it's

269
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 3: going to have to go through Jacksonville. I mean, Doug

270
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 3: Peterson's done a phenomenal job of turning that offense around,

271
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 3: turning that team around.

272
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 2: Two years ago with Ervin Meyer.

273
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,440
Speaker 3: Nobody thought that Doug Peterson could just walk in and

274
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 3: do what he did and really turn Trevor Lawrence's career

275
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:34,319
Speaker 3: around as well, because we saw that he was a

276
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,959
Speaker 3: number one overall pick. But we really saw it last

277
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,560
Speaker 3: year with the Jags. They added Christian Kirk. They paid

278
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 3: so much money for him. I don't know where they

279
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 3: got all that money from. But then somehow, then they

280
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,719
Speaker 3: get Calvin Ridley, and they've got all these number one

281
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 3: picks they've been quietly stashing away year after year. And

282
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 3: I think, you know, I'm telling you just from a

283
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 3: personal perspective, just seeing what the Jags have been able

284
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 3: to do with all these high top draft picks. You know,

285
00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 3: the Texans hope that you know, one day they're going

286
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 3: to go toe to toe their quarterback as well, who

287
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 3: gets some experience under his belt with all these number one,

288
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 3: number two, number three picks as well. So I think

289
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 3: there's a lot of respect for that Jaguars organization, what

290
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 3: they've had to go through and how they've had to

291
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 3: really build themselves up after you know, making it to

292
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,680
Speaker 3: the AFC Championship game against the Patriots several years ago,

293
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 3: and you know, let me just say that was the

294
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 3: hardest game to watch because I was like, I don't

295
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 3: want to cheer for the Patriots and I don't want

296
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 3: to cheer for the Jaguars, and I want everyone in.

297
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 2: The AFC Championship game to lose. But I digress because

298
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:28,839
Speaker 2: the Jaguars.

299
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 3: Have turned it around, and I think it's a great

300
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 3: test for this Texans team that is so young, and

301
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 3: if they can come in and put up some points

302
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,199
Speaker 3: and play really well against this Jaguars team and maybe

303
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 3: steal a win like they seem to do every single

304
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,960
Speaker 3: year at some point or another, I think that that

305
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:47,199
Speaker 3: would make this Texans team feel like they're going places.

306
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:48,599
Speaker 3: And I think that's a sign of respect to the

307
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,959
Speaker 3: Jaguars because they are such a formidable AFC South opponent.

308
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: It's always a pleasure. You always bring the heat. It's

309
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,200
Speaker 1: a division rivalry, we expect nothing less.

310
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 2: Bring some trash talking too while at it.

311
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: Yes, Duck CJ. Could be a long day at the office.

312
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 1: Hopefully if the Jaguars defense gets going.
