1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,080
Speaker 1: Welcome into Texans All Access on a Tuesday.

2
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:05,280
Speaker 2: Just wrapped up an hour with Blake Cashman Cash Money Records,

3
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:07,520
Speaker 2: as Jalen Petree calls him, and Indy klu And now

4
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:11,040
Speaker 2: I'm joined with Mark vandermir and Drew Doherty. Hello, guys,

5
00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 2: welcome in.

6
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 3: Hello. It is week six and next week is a

7
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:17,239
Speaker 3: bye and there's a lot going on. You have a

8
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 3: chance to hit the buy at three and through.

9
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:22,160
Speaker 2: That sounds nice. Which first you got to go through

10
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 2: the New Orleans Saints. They might have something to say

11
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:27,160
Speaker 2: about it. And you know, we still we're in the

12
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:29,639
Speaker 2: midst of this NFC South battle, so I know, lots

13
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:32,000
Speaker 2: to get to with the Atlanta Falcons, lots to get

14
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 2: to within the AFC South, a lot of moving and

15
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:37,480
Speaker 2: shaking happening. But first of all, let's kick it off

16
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:40,879
Speaker 2: with just Atlanta first of all, because I saw some

17
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 2: good things close loss, and I know there's no moral victories,

18
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,559
Speaker 2: as Drew always likes to point out, but I want

19
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 2: to get your guys' thoughts on what you liked from Atlanta,

20
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 2: because you saw some little bit healthier player more a

21
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 2: healthy O line, i should say, and a few things

22
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 2: that you want to improve for week six.

23
00:00:59,080 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 3: So.

24
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 4: That new segments on in the lab, and it's gonna

25
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,399
Speaker 4: be what if I told you? And we're gonna use

26
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 4: that voice from thirty for thirty and we're gonna basically go,

27
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 4: If the Texans win, we're gonna point out all the

28
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 4: bad stuff that happened and they won anyway, But when

29
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,039
Speaker 4: the Texans lose, we're gonna point all the good stuff.

30
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,320
Speaker 4: So what if I told you that the Texans allowed

31
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 4: zero sacks again, they won the turnover battle two to zero,

32
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 4: They helped Bijon Robinson to less than one hundred yards,

33
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 4: They had a halftime lead, the lead at the one

34
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 4: forty nine mark. What would I What would you say

35
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,119
Speaker 4: if if I told you all those things win?

36
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 3: Automatic win? No question. Let me add to it. You

37
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 3: hold the entire team under one hundred yards for the Falcons,

38
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 3: not just Robinson, Algiers a good back. They hold the

39
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 3: entire running production below a hundi, and the entire yards

40
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 3: per carry for the Falcons below three. You tell me that,

41
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 3: plus you win the turnover battle two to oh and

42
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 3: Stroud doesn't turn it over, No, he turns it over.

43
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 3: Are you kidding? Obviously? If you have zero turnovers, that

44
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 3: would be the case, but I expanded on that. I

45
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 3: would think it's a victory, but it wasn't. And such

46
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 3: is life in the NFL. It's not always what you

47
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 3: think it's going to be. Clearly it wasn't. It didn't

48
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 3: work out, but you got to learn from it.

49
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know we mentioned the O line getting healthier.

50
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 2: You've got Larry Tunseel, Titus Howard back. I think there

51
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,239
Speaker 2: were high expectations for this game just with those two

52
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 2: being back.

53
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 3: But you did.

54
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: You did some good things, like you mentioned, no.

55
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 2: Sacks for the third straight week, no turnovers, no interceptions.

56
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 2: It's funny because after the game at Atlanta, CJ.

57
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: Strudd was asked about it.

58
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 2: He's the only quarterback in the Super Bowl era with

59
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 2: five Grant games to start his career and no interceptions.

60
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 2: But you know he's so humble about it. He said, well,

61
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 2: a few of them really should have been picked off.

62
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,639
Speaker 2: I just sort of lucky the guys dropped it. I've

63
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 2: got to be better with the football. Like he's still

64
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 2: I think that we make a big deal of his

65
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 2: stat but he sees the near interceptions, Yeah, all those

66
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 2: plays because.

67
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 3: He knows that they're not perfect. Throws that their throat.

68
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 3: He needs to make better or they need to get

69
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 3: on the same page, whatever the case may be. Those

70
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:08,679
Speaker 3: passing plays need to connect that didn't connect against the Falcons.

71
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 3: Third downs need to be a whole lot better. Look,

72
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:11,959
Speaker 3: they were good at the end of the game. I

73
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 3: mean that touchdown pass was on a third down and eight,

74
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,079
Speaker 3: and he's come up with some clutch third downs late

75
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 3: in games. And guys, I think that my biggest takeaway

76
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 3: of this game, other than it's too bad they didn't win,

77
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 3: was CJ. Stroud when they needed a touchdown, they got it.

78
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,799
Speaker 3: They're down six, they've got to do it now or never,

79
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 3: and they do it. They get it to the end zone,

80
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,679
Speaker 3: you get the lead. Now, they didn't hang on to

81
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 3: the lead, but that is still such an encouraging thing

82
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 3: that your quarterback was able to get you that money

83
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 3: touchdown when you needed it most. Now you got to

84
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 3: get better in all other phases and make sure that

85
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 3: you can close out games like that. But I loved

86
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 3: seeing that in week five from your rookie quarterback.

87
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,839
Speaker 1: Let's go yeah, I still come go ahead, Drew.

88
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 4: I was just say around a three minute mark, I'm

89
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 4: there in that end zone with Tyler Sunnar winning Tyler

90
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 4: Sutterarth who was shooting all this great content, and I

91
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 4: turned to him and I say about the three men

92
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 4: of Mark, I say, dude, he might screw around and

93
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 4: just burn this whole clock out and score a touchdown

94
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 4: late enough to like make it not possible for them

95
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 4: to win. Now. I don't think I jinxed it because

96
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 4: they still weren't in the red zone or anything yet,

97
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 4: but it was really really impressed. I mean, he was

98
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 4: just methodically chewing up chunksy yardage, getting the offense down

99
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,479
Speaker 4: the field, and it looked like he was, you know,

100
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 4: he was going to make that happen there. You never

101
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 4: know because it's third and eight and it's at the

102
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 4: eighteen and then boom just drops it in the bucket

103
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 4: right there. It's the Dalton Schultz too. That's another great

104
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 4: story from this game. Really erupts has a great contest,

105
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 4: and I think we're gonna see a lot of that

106
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,599
Speaker 4: different guys stepping up each week because this offense, one

107
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,720
Speaker 4: thing will get taken away. You know, it's a quieter

108
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 4: day for Nico Collins, so your's Dalton Schultz rising up.

109
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 4: Quieter day because Tank Dell goes down blah blah blah blah.

110
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 4: So I think we're gonna see a lot of that

111
00:04:58,240 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 4: as the weeks progress.

112
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 2: I just really liked the body language of Stroud. I

113
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,039
Speaker 2: know there were a couple there were so many opportunities

114
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,159
Speaker 2: to score early on in the game, but there was

115
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 2: one moment in particular where him and Tank Dell were

116
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 2: not on the same page talked him after the play.

117
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 2: There was another play where a receiver you know, missed

118
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 2: a catch. I can't remember who it was, but you know,

119
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 2: he just always kept his composure, even keel and I think,

120
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 2: you know, of course he's not going to rupt as

121
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 2: a you know, in a game like that that's so close.

122
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 2: But I just feel like the composure that we've heard

123
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 2: other players talking about, we've seen it both in the

124
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 2: wins and the losses.

125
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: He really is pretty calm, cool.

126
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 2: And collected, doesn't let the moment get too big, and

127
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 2: he's not really overwhelmed by the fact that, Okay, it's

128
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 2: the game. When he drive like I got to be

129
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 2: able to go down and score, he just sort of

130
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 2: methodically does it. I think it also says a lot

131
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:48,039
Speaker 2: about Bobby Slowan because CJ talked about in the first half.

132
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 2: How you know, there were a lot of looks they

133
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 2: hadn't seen before, and so they were getting them. They

134
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,280
Speaker 2: were in a lot of third and long situations, something

135
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,159
Speaker 2: that we have not seen in recent weeks. And they

136
00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,280
Speaker 2: made some adjustments in the second half and they were

137
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 2: starting to find some success. And so I felt like

138
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 2: his ability to adapt also, we really saw that in

139
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 2: this game, and.

140
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 3: I think they have to adapt game to game because

141
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,279
Speaker 3: I think as teams get more tape on him and

142
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 3: them and what they're doing, obviously they try to respond.

143
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 3: And we talked to Nick Cassario about this. You'll hear

144
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 3: that conversation tomorrow. It's going to be up on YouTube soon,

145
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:21,679
Speaker 3: if not already. And you're looking at other teams dealing

146
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 3: with CJ. Stroud and they're going to deal with him

147
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 3: in a variety of ways, and they've got to be

148
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 3: ready for it. To your point, deep beat, now, they

149
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 3: didn't do well enough throughout the course of the game.

150
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 3: I mean nineteen points. They'll be the first to tell

151
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 3: you that's not going to be enough on the road.

152
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 3: In many instances, maybe it would be if the defense

153
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 3: you made a player two here or there, but you

154
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 3: got two takeaways, and you were still unable to get

155
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 3: over the twenty point mark and you didn't turn it

156
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 3: over yourself. So they need to be better in getting

157
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 3: the ball into the end zone one of those field

158
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 3: goal drives. Had it been a touchdown, you're looking at

159
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 3: a potentially completely different situation at the end of the game.

160
00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 3: So remember that, and I know they will. The one

161
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 3: thing I don't worry about is CJ. Stroud and Bobby

162
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 3: slowk in the entire offense learning from whatever occurred, and

163
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 3: maybe they get new stuff this week they have to

164
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 3: deal with against the New Orleans Saints. They're gonna have

165
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 3: to learn from that. I don't know if they win

166
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 3: or lose this Sunday, obviously, but I have faith that

167
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 3: they'll get better. I know we have the right people here,

168
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 3: Demik Goo, Ryans, Bobby Sloweck, et cetera. The entire staff,

169
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 3: Frank Ross, You've got a quarterback. It's a journey and

170
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 3: it's not going to go as smoothly as we would

171
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 3: all hope it never does in the National Football League.

172
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 3: I thought last week one of the things that made

173
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 3: it really disappointing to lose this one, not just that

174
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 3: it was gettable, but that you had expectations, and it

175
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 3: wasn't just Titus and Laramie coming back. It was Hey,

176
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 3: you just demolished the last two opponents basically, so why

177
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 3: not demolish this one too? Isn't it that easy? I

178
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 3: don't think like that, and I don't think you guys

179
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 3: think like that. I think a lot of people just

180
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 3: felt like it was going to be not easier, but

181
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 3: a little more doable than it was. And I think

182
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 3: it was doable. They just got a great effort from Atlanta,

183
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 3: A team that was desperate for victory, having lost two

184
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 3: in a row back at home, now had to have it,

185
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 3: and they got it.

186
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 2: I think that your expectations are also a little bit higher, too, right.

187
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 2: I think you didn't really know what to expect. And

188
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 2: after that Steelers game, yeah, sure, you think they can

189
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 2: go toe to toe with anybody in this league.

190
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: So I think the expectation was returning.

191
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 2: I think for the last few years, we've sort of

192
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 2: not really had a lot of high expectations. There's not

193
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 2: been a lot of hopes surrounding this team just because

194
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,560
Speaker 2: of the rebuild, and you know, you don't really know

195
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 2: what you have at the quarterback position. Now you feel

196
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 2: like after what you were able to put forth in

197
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 2: that game against the Steelers, a powerhouse that was supposed

198
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 2: to come in here and just dominate this game and

199
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 2: did not.

200
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 1: You go to Atlanta and.

201
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 2: You think, Okay, this is one of all this team,

202
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 2: like you said, two losses in a row. They're looking

203
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 2: to turn things around. And you know their quarterback versus

204
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 2: Stroud last week, they were talking about benching him, benching

205
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 2: Desmond Ritters, so he had to come back and have

206
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 2: the game that he had.

207
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,839
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I thought the Texans were going to

208
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 4: win that game going in simply because they have the

209
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,680
Speaker 4: better quarterback. Now, Desmond Riddard played terrifically and he was

210
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 4: the better quarterback ultimately on Sunday because his team won.

211
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 4: But you know, I'm gonna take CJ. Stroud over Desmond

212
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 4: Ritter over the long term. In this week as well.

213
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 4: But that and I still can't get over the fact

214
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 4: that they chose not to take a bye after their

215
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 4: London trip. They got away with him this time. But

216
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 4: I really thought those two big factors Texans are gonna

217
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 4: win this thing. That's that's why I was very very

218
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 4: optimistic about what we saw.

219
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 3: I'd love to play it again, because I think if

220
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 3: you play a series with this team, if it was

221
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 3: say baseball or the NBA or something like that, you

222
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 3: play a best of seven, you're gonna win. You're gonna

223
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 3: win the series. But didn't win on Sunday. They got

224
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 3: the better of you, and now you gotta move on

225
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 3: to New Orleans. And the Saints are looking really good

226
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 3: right now after blowing out the Patriots. I know we'll

227
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 3: get into that, but again, some things that you can

228
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 3: sort of hang your hat on and say that was good.

229
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 4: C J.

230
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,319
Speaker 3: Stroud getting the touchdown at the moment of truth really good.

231
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 3: And they've got plenty to work on here. You know.

232
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 3: It was a big blow to me Shack Griffin because

233
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,319
Speaker 3: he had the calf injury on Thursday. Then on Friday

234
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 3: we saw him out there. I think he was limited,

235
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 3: but then he comes up as out of the game

236
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 3: against Atlanta and Kadar Hollman. You're dealing with the third

237
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 3: level of the depth chart right there, and you know

238
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 3: he's giving it his all. But they were throwing to

239
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 3: the left side too. Steven Nelson had a great coverage

240
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 3: on Drake London on that deep pass that got them.

241
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 3: I think the next to last field goal. They scored

242
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 3: on their last three possessions, touchdown in the two then

243
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 3: field goal field goal to close out the game. I

244
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 3: know the defense is sick about that, the coaching staff

245
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,079
Speaker 3: is sick about that. They're going to try to prevent

246
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:34,680
Speaker 3: that next time.

247
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 2: Obviously, I feel like after that second touchdown drive, they

248
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 2: really tightened up, and then the defense kept this offense

249
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 2: in the game.

250
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 1: But you're right, like then they start out the second half.

251
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 2: I mean, if you go back and you look at

252
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 2: the drive chart after the touchdown, it was punt, punt, punt,

253
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 2: punt end of half, and then two straight fumbles to

254
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 2: start the second half before they scored another touchdown. But yeah,

255
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 2: you're right, the last three drives of the game. You

256
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,839
Speaker 2: let them score. A game you know, slips out of

257
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 2: your hands. But one thing that I want to get

258
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 2: your guys' opinion on.

259
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 1: I feel like the run game.

260
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 2: We had talked about how it was getting closer and

261
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 2: closer every single week.

262
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 1: It's still not where it needs to be, but I.

263
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 2: Felt like on that touchdown drive, we saw some good

264
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,560
Speaker 2: things out of Damien Piers and he was running hard.

265
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, you did, but they have yet to put it

266
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 3: all together right. Against Pittsburgh, he had what eighty plus

267
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 3: yards that was nice. He had some pops against Atlanta

268
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:27,319
Speaker 3: sixty yards ish, and he's just it's not him. I

269
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:28,439
Speaker 3: don't want to say no.

270
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,479
Speaker 1: The runs, the run game.

271
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:34,079
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's all of it together. Scheme. There's an early

272
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 3: the third and one early where they settle for the

273
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 3: field goal instead of going for it on fourth and run.

274
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:40,439
Speaker 3: I think a lot of fourth and one. I think

275
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 3: a lot of that was because, hey, you didn't make

276
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 3: it on third and one, we're not going for it

277
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 3: on fourth on one. We're going to take the points

278
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 3: right here, Andre and Johnny, We're all about go ahead,

279
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 3: kick the field goal. For once. I was the one saying,

280
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,079
Speaker 3: maybe you want to go for it on fourth down here,

281
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 3: But I think what that was was, if you can't

282
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 3: make it on third and one, we're gonna go ahead

283
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 3: and kick a field goal right here. Make sure we

284
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,319
Speaker 3: get something out of this drive and take it from there.

285
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 3: It almost all worked out, And I'm not saying that

286
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 3: was determining the game on the opening drive of the

287
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 3: game for the Texans, but that was notable to me

288
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 3: because I look at that play and it's the front side.

289
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 3: You know, one of those zone running scheme runs and

290
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 3: Pierce cuts it back and the defensive end is right

291
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 3: over there to make a play on the ball. I'm

292
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 3: thinking you should have booted that. Look, it's easy to

293
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 3: look at these plays in retrospect and think about what

294
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 3: could have worked. The point is this, They're going to

295
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 3: keep smashing, trying doing what they can to run the ball.

296
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 3: I believe they will be able to do it. This

297
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 3: is an offense that requires a lot of work and

298
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 3: repetition in order to make it work. And the Gary

299
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 3: Kubiak running attack didn't really get going until the second year.

300
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,199
Speaker 3: And I'm not saying that I want to wait till

301
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 3: next year to see that running game going. But the

302
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 3: second year in the system, they started to make some

303
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 3: headway running the football. That's when you felt like, hey,

304
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 3: ron Daane, you can run the football with him, you

305
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 3: can run the football with Sam con Gatto, you can

306
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 3: run the football with Darius Walker. At a Notre Dame,

307
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 3: they were doing all that in two thousand and seven.

308
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,200
Speaker 3: In two thousand and eight they got Steve Slayton. Well

309
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 3: before Aaron ever got here. The Kubiak system was yielding

310
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 3: big yards on the ground. I think this offense will

311
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 3: get there, but they need continuity and health on the line,

312
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 3: and they got to stick with it. You need the

313
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 3: reps to stick with it. You're going to hang in

314
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 3: there till then at least you have the quarterback.

315
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 4: So let's see what happens, no doubt, I mean, and

316
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 4: you bring up deep that last drive by Damian Pierce.

317
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 4: I mean, he was basically the only guy who touched

318
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,839
Speaker 4: the ball other than Dalton Schultz and one or two

319
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 4: other snaps on that drive. He had like forty six

320
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 4: fifty yards from scrimmage. He had a thirteen yard run,

321
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 4: He had a sixteen yard reception, which I still don't

322
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 4: know if we've seen enough of him catching the ball,

323
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 4: because I think he can really be a force and

324
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 4: a weapon in that game. But he kind of got

325
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 4: going on that last drive. There was one play where

326
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,199
Speaker 4: he was stopped for a loss, but he was getting

327
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:51,959
Speaker 4: positive chunks of yardage the whole entire possession. And you know,

328
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 4: I talked with Titus Howard afterwards in the locker room,

329
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 4: and they think that proverbial dam is about to break

330
00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 4: and they're about to start having some of those successes

331
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 4: with the run game. And you also got to keep

332
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 4: in mind they've been able to throw it so well

333
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 4: so early in this and teams are stacking that box

334
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 4: testing the rookie quarterback, so maybe they adjust here the

335
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,719
Speaker 4: second chunk of the season, we're approaching the buye. Post buy,

336
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 4: we might see some different things from both the offense

337
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 4: and from opposing defenses. The way things shake.

338
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 3: Out, well, we'll see. I'm eager to see what they

339
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 3: come out of the bye with. I think the buye

340
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 3: kind of gets overstated as to what you can do.

341
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 3: The coaches can do some things, but it's not like, hey,

342
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 3: we'll be practicing all week. You know what happens here.

343
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 3: They're gonna work out Tuesday next week, something like that,

344
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 3: maybe Wednesday. Maybe they're gone by Wednesday and we'll see

345
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 3: you Monday. I think the biggest thing is the Monday practice.

346
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 3: When you get back from the buy You didn't play

347
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 3: that Sunday, so Monday you can practice. Everybody's back and

348
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 3: you can put some stuff in. Then, depending on what

349
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 3: the coaches decided to do, then you get the mandatory

350
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 3: Tuesday off and you're back into game week getting ready

351
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,240
Speaker 3: for Carolina. We'll talk about that next week. I do

352
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 3: think some things can be done, but I'm not so

353
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 3: sure about Look, they don't need to make wholesale changes.

354
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 3: I think we all agree. They just need to do

355
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 3: what they do better and we'll see how they handle it.

356
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 1: All right, So the Saints, so coming up.

357
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,840
Speaker 2: We've got the Saints, then the bye, than at Carolina,

358
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 2: then home versus Tampa Bay, and then'll be a wrap

359
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 2: for the NFC South. All right, Let's turn our attention

360
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 2: to the New Orleans Saints. Mark likes his opponents fat

361
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 2: and happy.

362
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, and story.

363
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 2: The Saints are fat and happy, and I think, Mark,

364
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 2: are you doubly fat and happy because of the win

365
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 2: that they.

366
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 1: Are coming off?

367
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 3: So fat and so happy. Now if there's a smart.

368
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 2: Blowout of the Patriots. Yeah, the worst home loss in history.

369
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 2: I mean, it's just astounding what is happening in New England.

370
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 3: And a lot of talk about the Patriots, of course

371
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 3: for good reason, because it's just so compelling what is

372
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:55,720
Speaker 3: going on with that franchise that is a Super Bowl

373
00:15:55,880 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 3: prolific winner, that has been so used to playoffs, sess

374
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 3: and here they are in the post Brady era, one

375
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 3: playoff appearance and a lot of losing, a lot of losing.

376
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:11,720
Speaker 3: And it blows my mind that mac Jones, who looked

377
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 3: pretty good as a rookie with Josh McDaniel's coach in

378
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:18,280
Speaker 3: the offense, since then, not so much. Remember Bailly's Appy

379
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 3: played a chunk last year. Bailly's Appy's will leave them

380
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 3: the last two games because it's been out of control,

381
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 3: it's been out of hand, so they pull mac Jones

382
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 3: from these games. The mac Jones is so rare.

383
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 4: That is so rare. Yeah, backup quarterback comes in and

384
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 4: plays if there's if somebody's not injured. I mean that

385
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 4: is rare. Think about how many blowouts the Texans had

386
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 4: in twenty eleven when Shob was still healthy. Yeah, Shob keeps,

387
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 4: he stays in the get. They don't take quarterbacks. It's

388
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 4: not like college. That's so rare. Two straight games with that,

389
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 4: Sorry to interrupt.

390
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 2: I wonder if they're going to make the change. I mean,

391
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 2: it doesn't seem like they want to. I think they

392
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 2: just realize, Okay, the game's out of hand, let's just

393
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 2: not Let I look at it.

394
00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: More like they're giving mac.

395
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 2: Jones some rest and they don't want to get him injured,

396
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 2: and that's why they're taking.

397
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,679
Speaker 1: Out because they've lost. They've lost at thirty plus points.

398
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 3: But he's totally ineffective. Now, think about this with Bailey Zappy.

399
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,679
Speaker 3: He's their guy because they drafted him last year and

400
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 3: he looked decent last year until he didn't and mac

401
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:15,679
Speaker 3: Jones came back and they didn't have the kind of

402
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:20,359
Speaker 3: season they needed to have. But but look at Bailly Zapy.

403
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 3: We saw him in the preseason, they cut him and

404
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 3: then they brought him back. So that's what they thought

405
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,719
Speaker 3: of Bailly Zaby. I think that mac Jones has been

406
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:32,680
Speaker 3: horribly ineffective. Look, we all know about this offense, and

407
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 3: I just I'll stand by this. I think that it's

408
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 3: great to have autonomy as a quarterback, but for some reason,

409
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:45,440
Speaker 3: this offense has not produced high ranking finishes with anybody

410
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 3: else other than the greatest quarterback who ever lived. Even

411
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 3: with Deshaun Watson, the Texans were not a top ten

412
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 3: offense in this league. Hard to believe, but true. They

413
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 3: just won games. They found a way to win games.

414
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 3: O'Brien's a winner. O'Brien can win games, but with the

415
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 3: offensive coaching, I just don't I don't see it happening

416
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 3: with mac Jones. And maybe they just need another quarterback,

417
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,440
Speaker 3: Maybe they need different personnel, maybe they need a complete overhaul.

418
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:08,680
Speaker 3: I'm just curious to see what happens with Bill Belichick.

419
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 3: Does he hang around? Is he able to hang around

420
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 3: long enough to break down Shula's all time coaching wins record?

421
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 3: Or is this it for coach Bill Belichick this year

422
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 3: or sooner.

423
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 2: I've got a juicy little nugget for you, Mark, Juan, Yeah,

424
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,399
Speaker 2: Andrew that you guys might like. Okay, so we know

425
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 2: the Patriots are coming off back to back blowout losses.

426
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 2: So the week before they lost to the Cowboys thirty

427
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 2: eight to three. So they, like most other teams in

428
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 2: the league, they have Tuesday off. Yeah, but this is

429
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 2: according to Mike Reese of ESPN. He said, Okay, normally

430
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 2: they normally have Tuesday off, but this week they had

431
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 2: Monday off, and the players are actually in today because

432
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,920
Speaker 2: this week Bill Belichick made Monday to day off presumably

433
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 2: quote so that he could get things in order with

434
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 2: his coaching staff on how the team proceeds from here

435
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,439
Speaker 2: after back to back blowouts. So interesting, the players are

436
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 2: back in the bill Tuesday as a team attempts to

437
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 2: put the pieces back together end quote.

438
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 3: All right, you want to know what I make of this?

439
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:08,159
Speaker 1: Translate this for me?

440
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,959
Speaker 3: All right, Well, this is pretty easy because Lovey Smith

441
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 3: did this last year. Every Monday was the player's day off.

442
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 3: We all remember this because doing what we do that

443
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,199
Speaker 3: affected things greatly. Right, you didn't have that Tuesday day

444
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 3: off that we were used to from the beginning of time.

445
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 3: In this league. The coaches are allowed to make Monday

446
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 3: be the mandatory league wide day off. NFLPA negotiated. I

447
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 3: think it stinks to the players because a lot of

448
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 3: them are coming in Monday anyway, just to rehab, region,

449
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 3: read whatever after the game, and then wait, we're back

450
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 3: at it Tuesday. Now they don't full practice Tuesday, but

451
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 3: they meet great, talk about the game plan, do all

452
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 3: that stuff on a Tuesday. Love he liked mondays off

453
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,439
Speaker 3: for a couple of reasons. He liked to meet with

454
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,680
Speaker 3: his coaches. He wanted the players out of the way.

455
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:53,880
Speaker 3: Didn't want it to deal with the players on Monday.

456
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 3: Let's deal with ourselves, game plan, get all that stuff done.

457
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 3: Then on Tuesday we'll present with them the game plan.

458
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 3: Get everything going that way, won't have a full practice,

459
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 3: but we'll have them in the building, get rid of them,

460
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,640
Speaker 3: and then go normal Wednesday on. So I think that's

461
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 3: what Bill Belichick is doing. He definitely did it to

462
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 3: meet with his coaches on Monday and go over whatever

463
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 3: they want to change. And who knows what that means

464
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 3: with Bill O'Brien because I saw some of the sideline

465
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 3: interaction and I don't want to read too much into that.

466
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 3: Obviously there's great frustration and people, you know, gesturing with

467
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:32,159
Speaker 3: their armor. It wasn't like Brian Dable and Daniel Jones

468
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 3: were throwing at the tablet or anything like that, but

469
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 3: clearly Bill O'Brien and Mac Jones were not having a

470
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,360
Speaker 3: good time on the sideline, and at one point Belichick

471
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,440
Speaker 3: walks over to O'Brien and he just gives them a look.

472
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 3: O'Brien does, like, all right, here we go, you know,

473
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,359
Speaker 3: we got to talk about this or just something like.

474
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 3: I mean, it was not disrespectful, but look, they're dealing

475
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 3: with a lot of stuff here. That The surprising thing

476
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:56,920
Speaker 3: to me was not that they lost to the Saints,

477
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 3: that they got blown out by the Saints after getting

478
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 3: blown out by Dallas. How often do you see that

479
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 3: in this league? Only to teams that are really undermanned, undernourished,

480
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 3: under because it happened to the Texans in twenty twenty one.

481
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 3: You know, had what four or five blowouts in that

482
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 3: whole season, and sometimes back to back. That doesn't happen

483
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:15,879
Speaker 3: in this league unless you just can't deal with it

484
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 3: personnel wise. You just really undermanned.

485
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,120
Speaker 2: Well, you know, we had the two really bad blowouts

486
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 2: within a month of each other, was that twenty fifteen

487
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 2: twenty oh with O'Brien Jammi, Yeah, I mean Atlanta. You

488
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 2: never back to back like that.

489
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, that wasn't back. Yeah, And those were weird blowouts

490
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 3: because you had Brian Cushing on that team, You had

491
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:34,719
Speaker 3: JJ Watt on that team. You had some good players

492
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 3: on that team. Right. What didn't get hurt in twenty

493
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 3: fifteen Arian Fosters.

494
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 2: Actually came back, I want to say for the Atlanta game,

495
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:43,880
Speaker 2: which was even more surprising that they were blown out.

496
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 3: He was, Yeah, he was available for the return that

497
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 3: we got hurt in Miami.

498
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 4: Hurt in Miami. Yeah, he was in both.

499
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:52,119
Speaker 1: He got hurt in Miami.

500
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 3: But I remember the look on Cushing's face during one

501
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,120
Speaker 3: of those Lamar Miller runs. Uh in that Miami game

502
00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 3: in twenty fifteen. But I compare it more to the

503
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:04,440
Speaker 3: blowouts suffered in twenty twenty one with Colts Cardinals. Don't

504
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 3: get me stolen buffalo in the rain up there?

505
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,399
Speaker 2: All right, it wasn't rainy in New England. But you know,

506
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 2: but I but okay, So you bring up the Monday players.

507
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 3: You get brown up by the Bears in twenty twenty one, did.

508
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:20,160
Speaker 4: You twenty it all ran that whole wonder those Colary

509
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:24,159
Speaker 4: has been crushed together from East Mark just blamed COVID.

510
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 3: That Bears game is all because the matter it was COVID.

511
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 2: I don't know, I read it. Maybe this is the

512
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,200
Speaker 2: cynical side of me. I thought, is he going to

513
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 2: make some changes, like major changes, and that's why he

514
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 2: needed the extra day?

515
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,920
Speaker 3: It is I'm bringing back Matt Patricia to coach the offense,

516
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 3: a guy who can get it done.

517
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 2: If you were on Twitter two weeks ago, people were

518
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 2: Matt Patricia was trending.

519
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:46,360
Speaker 1: So I had to know it.

520
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,920
Speaker 2: People were like, oh, well, you know the offense was

521
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,719
Speaker 2: actually running better under Matt Patrician. I thought, these cannot

522
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 2: be real, these cannot be these guys.

523
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,400
Speaker 3: Well, maybe it was. Maybe it was.

524
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 2: But now people think that it's Matt Jones's fault because

525
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 2: bit of everything.

526
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:01,879
Speaker 1: And it's like, I don't think that.

527
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 2: I think you're right. I don't think it's I think

528
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 2: it's very great. Yeah, it's a little bit of everything.

529
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,439
Speaker 1: It's fascinating though. I am so fascinated by this.

530
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,119
Speaker 3: I think the world though, love seeing this happen of

531
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 3: the Patriots because of the Patriot way and the arrogance

532
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 3: and all of that. But look, they want so much,

533
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 3: you're going to come across as arrogant, whether you are

534
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:21,719
Speaker 3: or not at some point if the forty nine ers

535
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,680
Speaker 3: keep doing this, and look, they've got to prove it.

536
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,119
Speaker 3: They got to finish, right, But if they keep doing this,

537
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 3: we're gonna get so sick of them and we'll say

538
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,439
Speaker 3: things about them. But right now they're still sort of

539
00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,879
Speaker 3: league darlings because the Brock party story is still so

540
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 3: nice because he's mister Irrelevant from last year. And they

541
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 3: haven't won a super Bowl with this current group. They've

542
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 3: gone to the super Bowl with the Jimmy Garoppolo group

543
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 3: a few years ago, but they're trying to get there

544
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:46,639
Speaker 3: with this group.

545
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a break.

546
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,360
Speaker 2: Derek Carr had some interesting words after the big win

547
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 2: over the Patriots, and we'll get into some saint stuff,

548
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 2: and then we're going to go around the AFC self,

549
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 2: because lots of juicy tidbits around the AFC South. That's

550
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 2: all coming up on Texans, All Axis, Welcome back, Texans,

551
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,919
Speaker 2: All Axis rolls on. I was going to get to

552
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,120
Speaker 2: a quote about Derek Carr, and then I thought, Mark,

553
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 2: I have a question for you. Are you ever worried

554
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 2: that you're gonna say David Carr by accident when we

555
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 2: play Derek Carr.

556
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,640
Speaker 3: You know, I'm not worried about that. I don't think

557
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 3: I will. I think Derek is his own man. It's

558
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 3: been a long time since.

559
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:22,800
Speaker 1: David, since you've had to say David Carr.

560
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's been a long time. I'd love David Carr

561
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 3: to come around for something like a Legend's weekend. That

562
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 3: would have been awesome to have him here. I think

563
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 3: the fans would be okay with David Carr being here.

564
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 3: They'd be fine with this.

565
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,119
Speaker 2: He would, but he might be like a Giants legend.

566
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 2: He has got a super Bowl ring with the Giants.

567
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 3: Super Bowl ring is a backup quarterback.

568
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 2: There's a different one more ring than he has here

569
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 2: as a backup or a starter.

570
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 3: How about this and quick aside here, the Atlanta Falcons

571
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,199
Speaker 3: have three former Texans quarterbacks on their coaching staff. And

572
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 3: I mentioned this during the broadcast because Davi are going

573
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 3: coaches the offense. TJ. Yates's receivers coach, and Matt schab

574
00:24:55,320 --> 00:25:00,199
Speaker 3: is a football analyst for the football ops side on

575
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 3: the list of assistant coaches. Yeah, it's very cool.

576
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,240
Speaker 2: It's pretty it's crazy. Okay, So Mash he's like in

577
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 2: scouting is he?

578
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 3: I don't know what he does. He's a football analyst

579
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 3: TP that that you know what that means? Anything you want?

580
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 3: I mean, John Harris is a football analyst for US.

581
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 2: But now for the football he's he's not doing sideline.

582
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,880
Speaker 3: Shop. I know had done or I think he did

583
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 3: a couple of college games last year or something. And yeah,

584
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:30,920
Speaker 3: I think broadcasting was part of his target range.

585
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 4: And I'm pretty sure he did some like sports talk

586
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:37,400
Speaker 4: radio filling in from time to time there as well. Yeah,

587
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,440
Speaker 4: anybody years.

588
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 3: Has anybody caught brock Osweiler doing a college game for ESPN?

589
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 4: Yes, I have.

590
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 1: He's not bad.

591
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 3: The brocksure and you know Brock. It's funny because you

592
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:54,680
Speaker 3: have to sort of remove your brockness, your brock glasses

593
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 3: from listening to Brock. Brock's trying hard. Man, He's got

594
00:25:58,320 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 3: good delivery. I'll give him that.

595
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:01,640
Speaker 1: He always was a good storyteller.

596
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,160
Speaker 2: I mean, he was always a good talking Every interception,

597
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 2: interception had its story. We had some great one liners,

598
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 2: but it just it sort of started to wear thin

599
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,120
Speaker 2: after Baldy injection.

600
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 3: It did wear a little thin. But guess what brock

601
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 3: Osweiler best all time winning percentage against the Indianapolis Colts

602
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:24,679
Speaker 3: of all Texans quarterbacks to Ito Okay, brock Osweiler winning

603
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:29,159
Speaker 3: season AFC South Championship season happened to have the number

604
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 3: one defense in the NFL on his side.

605
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 2: But still the defense would like a word with you,

606
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 2: Mark Vandermier. It was the best defense in the entire

607
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 2: NFL all right. Before the break eye tease, Derek Carr

608
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,879
Speaker 2: had some words about the game. This is so funny

609
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:43,680
Speaker 2: to me, and I don't think he meant to be funny,

610
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 2: but he was asked about going against the Patriots, and

611
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 2: of course Texans are facing Derek Carr in the Saints

612
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:53,440
Speaker 2: on Sunday and he said, I'm tired. It is mentally taxing.

613
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:55,880
Speaker 2: It was mentally taxing for him to play that game

614
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 2: against the Patriots. He said, they do a great job

615
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 2: with personnel groupings, putting sub playing base fronts. You got

616
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:03,200
Speaker 2: to get everybody on the same page, so we're blocking

617
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 2: the right guys. But mentally it was taxing. I thought

618
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 2: that was kind of funny considering how they won. Really,

619
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 2: he was exhausted mentally, So how do they from all

620
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 2: the points, from all the point?

621
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:15,879
Speaker 3: Wait, how do they feel the week before when they

622
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 3: lost to the Buccaneers twenty six to nine.

623
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 2: How about the Cowboys blowing out the Patriots and then

624
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 2: getting blown out?

625
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:24,080
Speaker 1: What's what these teams?

626
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,240
Speaker 2: I mean, what's what these teams that blow out another

627
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:28,479
Speaker 2: team and then get blown out them.

628
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,640
Speaker 3: I'm going to tell you what it is. They're about

629
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:34,159
Speaker 3: five good teams, really good teams, and then there's a

630
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:38,160
Speaker 3: whole mishmash of teams, and then there's about four really

631
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,480
Speaker 3: bad teams. That's how I look at this. And even

632
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 3: the really bad teams can rise up it and it

633
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 3: takes me close and stun you. But that whole group

634
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 3: in the middle, I don't know how many teams. It

635
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 3: is twenty five teams something like that, twenty two to

636
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 3: whatever the number is, where everybody's kind of the same.

637
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,360
Speaker 3: Some teams might have a better this than a better that,

638
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 3: or worse this or worse that. But everybody can beat everybody.

639
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 3: And this is my feeling. When we were done with

640
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 3: the Atlanta game, I felt, you know what this is?

641
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 3: Who is ever more ready to go at noon on

642
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 3: a Sunday is going to win the game in all likelihood? Whoever?

643
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,400
Speaker 3: And Dan Riley, our old strength and conditioning coach back

644
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 3: in the day, I once saw him on a Saturday.

645
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 3: We're playing Carolina the next day. It was the very

646
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 3: first battle Red day. I saw him on the golf course.

647
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 3: I said, what do you think about can we actually

648
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:26,920
Speaker 3: do this? Because Carolina was having a really great year.

649
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:28,880
Speaker 3: They would eventually go to the super Bowl. They're having

650
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 3: a great year, and we were not. Right Tony Bax

651
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 3: was going to start a lot of people hurt. I said,

652
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:35,919
Speaker 3: you think we can do it? He said, Mark, I've

653
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 3: been in the league a long time. You can do

654
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 3: it anytime you want. If everybody plays well and everybody's

655
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,480
Speaker 3: super fired up. But the play well thing, it sounds obvious.

656
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 3: But yeah, sometimes you play better than others. Anybody can

657
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 3: relate to this. So if people who play golf, some

658
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 3: days you just play better than others. Right, Sometimes it happens.

659
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 3: Sometimes it doesn't combined with your preparation and you know

660
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 3: how adrenalized you are, whatever the case may be. But

661
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 3: at any given son, it's the any given son. Well,

662
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 3: it happens with this gigantic mishmosh of about twenty five teams. Now,

663
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 3: I think the Texans are right in there and can

664
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 3: rise up through that because quarterback coaching things. They have

665
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 3: a lot of young players which can go either way.

666
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 3: Right against Pittsburgh, you blow the doors off the Steelers.

667
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 3: The next week, you don't follow it up with the

668
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,479
Speaker 3: kind of performance you're looking for. Let's see what happens Sunday.

669
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 2: Speaking of any given Sunday, Blake Cashman, you guys had

670
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 2: never heard of any given Sunday. Well, be normal, all right,

671
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 2: so I heard watching it, but also never Yeah, Andy

672
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:34,560
Speaker 2: was beside himself, I know.

673
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 3: But Dy's got to learn this, yeah, right, he probably was.

674
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:41,120
Speaker 3: He born in nineteen ninety nine, right, he was like

675
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 3: a top bler all right, So whatever, Like you're super young,

676
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 3: movies that came out when I was born? Do I

677
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:48,959
Speaker 3: want to date myself? I mean, all right, so Doctor

678
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 3: No came out year or two before I was born.

679
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 3: I've seen Doctor Know plenty of times though, because I'm

680
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 3: a James bondfreak. So that's a bad example. But a

681
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 3: lot of movies that came out in the late fifties

682
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 3: early sixties, I haven't seen them. Most of them are

683
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 3: irrelevant to me, and I think that kind of applies

684
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 3: in this case, right.

685
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 2: Well, well, yes, yes, and no, like I didn't grow up.

686
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 2: I mean I watched Brady Bunch in reruns. Yeah, so

687
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 2: I think like any given Sunday is one of those

688
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 2: movies that reruns all the time.

689
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 3: Yes, but Blake's a young guy. So all right, if

690
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:20,520
Speaker 3: you are low twenties, even movies that rerun a lot

691
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 3: on cable, you're dealing with cord cutters for the last

692
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:27,520
Speaker 3: five ten years who don't have the rewatchable effect happening.

693
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 3: And they're not watching TNT movies with commercials Shawshank Redemption

694
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 3: running for an entire year every other day. You know,

695
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 3: they don't see this stuff the same way that even

696
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 3: we did, or anybody who's like thirty thirty five did so.

697
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 3: I think it's a different deal those older sports movies.

698
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 3: I was watching Rudy. I just watched like an hour

699
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 3: of Rudy on the plane the other day. I just

700
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 3: watched the Last Look. I like Rudy. I think it's

701
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 3: I think it's interesting.

702
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 1: I think that's actually the best football movie, Oh, Rudy.

703
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I really do. Really, I think it's the best

704
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,360
Speaker 3: football movie. As I watch it again, I'm thinking that

705
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 3: has all the elements you're looking for right there. It

706
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 3: really does. But we can debate that another time. Drew,

707
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 3: can I say what you were watching on the plane?

708
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 3: Sure he was watching Casino with Robert and Aaro and

709
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 3: Joe Pesci, Martin Scorcesi, Sharon Stone. Awesome movie.

710
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 1: I thought he was gonna say.

711
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 3: Pitch perfect, rewatchable. Is a player on the plane you

712
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 3: gonna pull up Casino? Is a player on the plane

713
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,479
Speaker 3: gonna pull up Rudy? I doubt it that. Maybe Heinisch

714
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,320
Speaker 3: would Heinisch, I'm sure has seen it. I would hope

715
00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 3: we should.

716
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 1: Just guess what players are probably watching on the plane watching.

717
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 3: This is not bad, This is not bad.

718
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 2: Know what we should is we should ask the players

719
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 2: what they're watching and then make fans guess the show

720
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 2: or the movie to the player.

721
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 1: This would be fantastic. I would be all in on that.

722
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 3: That's a good segment.

723
00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:44,600
Speaker 1: That's a great segment, Thank you.

724
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 4: I just speaking of Casino, I pointed this out to

725
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 4: mark the scene where they take James Woods out of

726
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 4: the restaurant and like he goes across the parking lot

727
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,760
Speaker 4: and they just beat him up in his convertible. Yet

728
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 4: in between the restaurant and the there's like a little

729
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 4: kid just kind of bouncing a basketball watching it all

730
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 4: go down. So there's a hot choice by SCORSESEI to

731
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 4: include that anyways, whatever I.

732
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 1: Like, So there's a story behind it.

733
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 2: Okay, speaking of any given Sunday, I will get us

734
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 2: back on track on this show.

735
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 1: Any given Sunday.

736
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 2: You were talking about bad teams playing well, the Carolina

737
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 2: only winless team in the NFL zero to five.

738
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 1: The Saints.

739
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 2: They played the Saints very close in Week two. So

740
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:28,720
Speaker 2: if you want to look at what the Saints did,

741
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 2: they're three and two. They won in Week one against

742
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 2: Tennessee sixteen to fifteen. Okay, talk about close games. Then

743
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 2: week two at Carolina, they win twenty to seventeen. Week three,

744
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:43,240
Speaker 2: they lose at Green Bay seventeen to eighteen, okay, and

745
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 2: then they lose to Tampa Bay nine to twenty six,

746
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 2: and then win at New England. So the last two

747
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 2: games obviously not close, but the fact that they've played

748
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,720
Speaker 2: some of those other teams so closely, I mean, I

749
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 2: feel like this is a team that we're still trying

750
00:32:57,960 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 2: to figure out, Like many of the teams in the

751
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 2: NFL early on the season, they're.

752
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 3: They're just getting healthier. Okay, because Alvin Kamaras played the

753
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 3: last couple of games, that's a huge difference maker for them.

754
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 1: That's a good point.

755
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 2: They still lost.

756
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 3: Was he playing in the Yeah, yeah, he played against

757
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 3: the Buccaneers, But I think that was the first one back.

758
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 3: And I'm not fully prepped on them yet, but I

759
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 3: will be. Trust me, by the time we kick off,

760
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 3: I will be fully ready for this experience. But to

761
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 3: have him back is huge. Michael Thomas. They played the

762
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 3: kind of game they've been looking for. I think the

763
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 3: Patriots are a dead team, though now they can rise

764
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 3: up again because they're in the building and they met up.

765
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 3: They had Monday off and the coaches met so This

766
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 3: could make all the difference in the world for the Patriots.

767
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 3: I'm just joking here, but I think the Patriots gave

768
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 3: a dead effort on Sunday and the ball got ball

769
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,200
Speaker 3: bounced their weight. Now, I'm not going to say they

770
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 3: didn't play hard, they don't have talent. They clearly have talent.

771
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 3: And defensively, the numbers are good. They are fourth in

772
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 3: the league and points allowed and fourth in the league

773
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 3: and yards allowed. The Saints. Yeah, so that's better than

774
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:59,720
Speaker 3: the Falcons statistically. Now you look at the schedule, Titans, Panthers, Packers, Bucks, Patriots.

775
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 3: As you said, there's no offensive juggernaut in that group,

776
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 3: and the Titans in Week one, you know, all right,

777
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 3: close game, close win for the Saints. I don't know

778
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,360
Speaker 3: what to make of their schedule right now, but you

779
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 3: better be ready. This team's fully capable of beating you.

780
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 3: If you can lose to the Falcons, you can lose

781
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:17,520
Speaker 3: to anybody. Get ready, buckle up, and there are gonna

782
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 3: be a lot of Saints fans here on Sunday as well.

783
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, you bring up the defense being fourth, they're clearly

784
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 4: they're a top fifteen defense. But I wonder how much

785
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 4: of that defense. Those numbers got skewed positively by this

786
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 4: shutout that they just had. I mean, Tyron Matthew let

787
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 4: off the game with a pick six or let off

788
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:37,280
Speaker 4: the scoring at least with a pick six. They scored

789
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:39,879
Speaker 4: in every single quarter. You know, they kind of ran

790
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 4: away and hid. They had three takeaways total. That's a

791
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 4: good defense. So they're good against the run as well.

792
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,400
Speaker 4: They haven't let anybody run on them. And maybe that's

793
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:49,279
Speaker 4: just because they've gotten up and they've had to you know,

794
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 4: the teams have had to pass. But yeah, this defense

795
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,799
Speaker 4: is something to contend with. Camara gets all the headlines

796
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 4: and the notoriety and justifiably so, but yeah, you're gonna

797
00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 4: have your hands full. We saw this defense caused some

798
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,759
Speaker 4: problems for the Texans interior line in the preseason. Now

799
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,800
Speaker 4: I know it was the preseason. But that guy Brian Percie,

800
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,120
Speaker 4: he can play. He is definitely pretty good. And you

801
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 4: know what cam Jordan can do. He might he might

802
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:15,359
Speaker 4: one day be in the Hall of Fame, he's that good.

803
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 3: So the close game they have with the Titans that

804
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,839
Speaker 3: was opening weekend, and again you can't make too much

805
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:23,160
Speaker 3: out of this. Derreck Henry's sixty three yards four point

806
00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 3: two per carry. So that's not terrible, but that's not

807
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,360
Speaker 3: Henry Lake. But he's had some on Henry like games

808
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 3: this season. Let's be honest, but Ryan Tannehill threw three

809
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 3: picks in that game. How much of that is Saints

810
00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,320
Speaker 3: defense and pressure? How much of it is Tannehill not

811
00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:38,160
Speaker 3: playing well enough? We don't know Texans have protected the

812
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:40,480
Speaker 3: ball well this year. You do that, you'll be right

813
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 3: in this thing again in the fourth quarter, needing to

814
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:44,719
Speaker 3: make a player too to win the game. Let's see

815
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:45,120
Speaker 3: what happens.

816
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,279
Speaker 2: I know this defense wants to get back on track

817
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 2: and get some pressure up front, and I think that

818
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 2: Derek Carr might prove to be a nice a nice

819
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 2: challenge for them because he does like to throw some

820
00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,400
Speaker 2: picks and he does get sacked a lot like to

821
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:01,760
Speaker 2: he does probably enjoys he enjoys it, but it's something

822
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 2: that just is in his repertoire. Four touchdowns, two interceptions,

823
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 2: fifteen sacks. I know he was banged up, so his

824
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 2: you know the numbers, probably he probably would have had

825
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:12,319
Speaker 2: more passing yards. He's got nine hundred and forty six.

826
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,239
Speaker 2: And then Jamis Winston came in in relief. But you know,

827
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,320
Speaker 2: I think this is a good, good opportunity for the

828
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,480
Speaker 2: Texans front to, you know, get some pressure up on

829
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,360
Speaker 2: Derek Carr because I know Alvin Kamara back. They're going

830
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,000
Speaker 2: to run the ball some, but you know, it'd be

831
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:27,400
Speaker 2: nice to get some some turnovers and actually convert them

832
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:27,839
Speaker 2: into points.

833
00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:31,440
Speaker 3: This well, and Michael Thomas, Chris Olave, I'm not liking.

834
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:31,839
Speaker 4: This at all.

835
00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 3: This is not good. Well, this is not helpful to

836
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,880
Speaker 3: throwing the ball to Kamara. I don't like that at

837
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,959
Speaker 3: all either. They got to buckle up, Like I said,

838
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:44,239
Speaker 3: let's go Demico, Ryans and Matt Burke. They know what

839
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 3: the deal is here. You got to get pressure on

840
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 3: Derek Carr. You gotta fource some quick throws. I think

841
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 3: the fan breakdown too, is going to be interesting like

842
00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,600
Speaker 3: the Steeler game. It's good that the Texans experienced what

843
00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:58,279
Speaker 3: it's like against the Steelers here because it's going to

844
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,120
Speaker 3: be a lot like that with the Saints. All all

845
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 3: the Saints fans in the building, just be ready for it.

846
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 3: Be ready for the noise, possible silent camp by your offense,

847
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:06,080
Speaker 3: all those dimensions.

848
00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a break when we come back.

849
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:10,320
Speaker 2: We're going to go around the AFC South, and you

850
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:13,360
Speaker 2: know what, maybe we've got some suggestions for Mark trolling

851
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:17,280
Speaker 2: Saints fans. Yes, that's all coming up on Texans All Access,

852
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:19,520
Speaker 2: final segment of Texans All Access.

853
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:21,279
Speaker 1: I had to get to this before we go around

854
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:22,280
Speaker 1: the NFL.

855
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:27,040
Speaker 2: In the AFC South, Mark Saints fans, you mentioned lots

856
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:29,560
Speaker 2: of black and gold. This reminds me of a few

857
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 2: weeks ago and there's a lot of black and yellow

858
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 2: and my I think my new favorite call definitely of

859
00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:38,799
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three was when you told everyone to get

860
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:41,080
Speaker 2: out as they were leaving the building. The Steelers fans,

861
00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 2: not the Texans fans. You're telling the Steelers fans get out.

862
00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:45,440
Speaker 2: So Saneil who's.

863
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:45,839
Speaker 4: One of our.

864
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 2: Experts, a legal expert, and Mark often tries to get

865
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 2: free legal advice, but instead he gets other advice that

866
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 2: has nothing to do with any legalities. I think because

867
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 2: Neil said that you should come up with something, yeah,

868
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:00,800
Speaker 2: you know, for the Saints fan and something kind of

869
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:01,720
Speaker 2: punchy and catchy.

870
00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 3: Thank you for your patronage. I'll think of something.

871
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 1: I think I think he suggested in the Saints go

872
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:09,359
Speaker 1: Marching Out.

873
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:11,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, that might that might that might make it on

874
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 3: the broadcast, get a big enough lead or whatever, and

875
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 3: you see them heading for the Exids, I will say something.

876
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 3: I can tell you that I will say something. But

877
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 3: thank you for the money, Thank you for spending your

878
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,359
Speaker 3: ticket money with the Houston Texans today. Your business, Now

879
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:25,880
Speaker 3: get out. I'm serious.

880
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:27,400
Speaker 1: I loved that Texans Monday.

881
00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 2: They bounced back with the sports Raider six, and they

882
00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 2: bounced back with your call of telling everyone to get out.

883
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:34,759
Speaker 1: That was already leaving, all right, But with that, I

884
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:38,239
Speaker 1: won't say anymore. You're gonna get me marks and marks.

885
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,560
Speaker 1: I was so nervous that we're talking about this around

886
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:42,479
Speaker 1: the AFC South.

887
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:47,480
Speaker 2: So the Colts, obviously we've heard Anthony Richardson diagnosed with

888
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:51,520
Speaker 2: a Grade three AC joint sprain. How long do we

889
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 2: expect Minchu Mania to last here? Because it looks like

890
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,040
Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson is going to miss some time here. And

891
00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:00,759
Speaker 2: coming up they are at Jacksonville, Okay, then they're at

892
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 2: home against Cleveland. Then they've got the Saints, then at

893
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,120
Speaker 2: the Panthers and at New England Patriots before they hit

894
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:06,439
Speaker 2: the Buye.

895
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 1: Not any real tough matchups, but a lot of games before.

896
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:13,719
Speaker 3: They atte to Cleveland could be tough. I can't that's

897
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:14,080
Speaker 3: gonna be a.

898
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,000
Speaker 1: Really what is happening with Deshaun Watson.

899
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,399
Speaker 3: I don't really Let's get to that in a minute.

900
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 3: But doctor Vandermer knowing that Anthony Richardson is out for

901
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:26,239
Speaker 3: a month or so, that was a report that's not

902
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:27,360
Speaker 3: from them obviously.

903
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,880
Speaker 1: Now we'll see Amy land on ir.

904
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 3: I don't know what Drew feels about this, but I

905
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:35,480
Speaker 3: think Gardner Minshew has an expiration date. I think that

906
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:39,400
Speaker 3: Gardner Minshew it's only gonna last so long. He's going

907
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 3: to turn into a pumpkin at some point. They're not

908
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 3: going to be able to play at that level. But

909
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 3: if Zach Moss is running the ball that well, Jonathan

910
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,359
Speaker 3: Taylor adds on to it, gets back into Jonathan Taylor form,

911
00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:51,759
Speaker 3: it might not matter as much for Minshew to have

912
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:54,160
Speaker 3: to win games for them. I'll put that in air quotes.

913
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 4: I think I love the coaches that Damiko Ryans and

914
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 4: company are in. Who they've who he's brought in to

915
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:06,200
Speaker 4: Miko has Indianapolis has a really impressive bunch too, with

916
00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 4: Shane Steichen has done this first part of that I

917
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:12,440
Speaker 4: did not expect this. I'm really really impressed by what

918
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,680
Speaker 4: I've seen from them, what they've done with Richardson, what

919
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:16,520
Speaker 4: they've done with Minshew when he had to come in.

920
00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:20,200
Speaker 4: I uh, As far as expiration did, I don't see it.

921
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,319
Speaker 4: I mean I believe, I believe there could be one,

922
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:24,360
Speaker 4: but I don't see it happening. With that stretch of

923
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 4: games that you just peeled off their DP. I mean,

924
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 4: those are all every one of those winn the whole

925
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,480
Speaker 4: game Texans went into Jacksonville beat them, Jacksonville's coming back

926
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,960
Speaker 4: from London. I mean that they're Those are all winnable

927
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 4: games in Americianapolis and they're Indianapolis. That's this is the

928
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:41,240
Speaker 4: stupid stuff they do, which is awful luck for the Texans.

929
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:43,360
Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell you this though. The Colts have a

930
00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:46,520
Speaker 3: better roster than people think two years ago, even last year,

931
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 3: prior to last year, this is a super Bowl contender.

932
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,040
Speaker 3: It's at least a deep playoff run contender with Matt Ryan.

933
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:53,640
Speaker 3: Right with Matt Ryan, they can do it. Look at

934
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:55,760
Speaker 3: the players on their team. I know they've had turnover

935
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:57,839
Speaker 3: since then, but they still have a lot of good

936
00:40:57,840 --> 00:40:59,640
Speaker 3: players on that team. And now that you put the

937
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:01,640
Speaker 3: running game together with Moss, who I thought was a

938
00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 3: great acquisition for them. That Nahim Heinz for Zach mosst

939
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 3: Deel was phenomenal for them. And Richardson has played well

940
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:12,400
Speaker 3: enough when he's available. And clearly Minshew knows the Stikeen

941
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,839
Speaker 3: system from Philadelphia, and I say stike In in jest,

942
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:19,759
Speaker 3: it's Shane Stichen. You don't have this sdike In. He

943
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 3: should just add it in there for our sake. But

944
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 3: let me ask you guys this. Let's say Watson's back

945
00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:28,360
Speaker 3: fully healthy playing the Colts. Who do you root for?

946
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:30,319
Speaker 3: This is a really one.

947
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 1: It's the draft pick. Mark, You cannot know it's the Colts.

948
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,680
Speaker 1: Someone's going to win Colts under.

949
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:47,239
Speaker 3: Any circumstances you will. I'll let you know how I

950
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:50,080
Speaker 3: feel when I get there. I hope, I hope that

951
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,400
Speaker 3: it's d t R playing for the Browns at that point,

952
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 3: and that it's Sam Ellinger playing for the Colts in

953
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 3: that point. We'll see what happens.

954
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 2: Okay, speaking of Watson, what is going on with him?

955
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:03,840
Speaker 2: Because they are coming off the bye Mark and I

956
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:07,680
Speaker 2: discuss this briefly just in passing, but he was cleared

957
00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:11,319
Speaker 2: to play medically yeah. And then the day of the game,

958
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 2: something's going on. It was the Ravens, you know that

959
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:17,279
Speaker 2: he had a little conversation with Stefanski and then he

960
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 2: threw like twice or did something with his shoulder, and

961
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:22,560
Speaker 2: then Stefanski sort of stormed off the field, did not play.

962
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,719
Speaker 1: They said he wasn't ready, and then, well, who said

963
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:26,400
Speaker 1: he wasn't ready?

964
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:27,640
Speaker 4: I that was?

965
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:30,719
Speaker 1: That was the team statement, like, oh, you know he's not.

966
00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:35,359
Speaker 3: He's he's medically cleared. We felt like he couldn't go, right,

967
00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:37,520
Speaker 3: So what which is it?

968
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:37,839
Speaker 4: All right?

969
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:39,600
Speaker 3: So he felt like he couldn't go, but now he's

970
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:42,840
Speaker 3: day to day. Now he's day to day. What what

971
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:45,480
Speaker 3: got worse since then? Is what I want to know.

972
00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:50,680
Speaker 2: Well, since the buye, according to Tom Pelisero, today Watson

973
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:54,279
Speaker 2: is dealing with a rotator cuff contusion and now his

974
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 2: status versus San Francisco by the way, that's who they're

975
00:42:57,239 --> 00:43:01,160
Speaker 2: playing next. Yeah, they're playing San Francisco TV. So he

976
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 2: didn't nothing, okay, and then how about this the team

977
00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 2: practice Monday, First reports came out that Watson wasn't practicing,

978
00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:11,800
Speaker 2: and then then the reports came out that he was

979
00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:14,240
Speaker 2: practicing inside away from the team.

980
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:18,360
Speaker 1: What does that mean? That suckers so many questions.

981
00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:24,759
Speaker 3: Practicing away from the team inside inside, that's not practice,

982
00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:28,319
Speaker 3: that's working out. He's working out because his leg still works,

983
00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:31,160
Speaker 3: so he's working out. He's keeping his cardio whatever going,

984
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 3: working out his leg. He's not practicing. He's not throwing

985
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:35,439
Speaker 3: a ball away to the team.

986
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:40,080
Speaker 2: Quote practiced inside and is considered now he's back to.

987
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:40,520
Speaker 1: Day to day.

988
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 3: Who reported that? Do you have the report? Mary?

989
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:43,279
Speaker 1: Mary Kay?

990
00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:46,279
Speaker 3: Mary Kate did, Yeah, all right, she should know. But

991
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 3: I don't know how you call that practice. I don't

992
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:51,319
Speaker 3: know how you You don't have to hide him from

993
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:54,200
Speaker 3: the media, because just warm up and then kick the

994
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:56,279
Speaker 3: media out like every other team in the league does,

995
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:58,880
Speaker 3: and then let him practice without the media there, or

996
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:01,960
Speaker 3: do whatever he's not doing without the media there.

997
00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:04,480
Speaker 2: Okay, So I have a serious question. Do you think

998
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:07,280
Speaker 2: that this is somehow related? This has to be related

999
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 2: as contract? What's going on?

1000
00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:12,400
Speaker 3: How could it be? I don't know. But they have

1001
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,920
Speaker 3: a contract. He's compensated. He's getting if you're healthy, if

1002
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:19,080
Speaker 3: you're not rehabing, read whatever, get ready to play.

1003
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:21,279
Speaker 1: But he was coming off his best game as a

1004
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:22,120
Speaker 1: Cleveland Brown.

1005
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 3: Well, he heard something clearly, I mean right, But.

1006
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:26,960
Speaker 1: Then how was he cleared medically?

1007
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 3: I don't know. That's a great question, DP. I don't

1008
00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:31,279
Speaker 3: know the answer to that, and I don't know how

1009
00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 3: it gets worse with the bio current. Well, look, we're

1010
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 3: you follow him on Instagram because I know you follow everybody.

1011
00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:42,879
Speaker 3: Did he post anything from guccie Land or anything from

1012
00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:46,719
Speaker 3: Bentleyville or anything that I missed over the weekend? Or

1013
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:47,719
Speaker 3: is he quiet on.

1014
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:52,040
Speaker 2: Social there's no cryptic quote tweets or quotes or song lyrics.

1015
00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:53,320
Speaker 3: No, I haven't seen anything.

1016
00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:57,160
Speaker 1: Pretty pretty radio silent on Twitter US. We're just gonna

1017
00:44:57,160 --> 00:44:58,720
Speaker 1: have to follow this story very closely.

1018
00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:01,160
Speaker 2: I'm very curious to see what happens again San Francisco

1019
00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:04,160
Speaker 2: because if they want any chance of beating San Francisco,

1020
00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:05,360
Speaker 2: I mean, they've got it.

1021
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:07,000
Speaker 1: They've got to at least have Watson.

1022
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,680
Speaker 4: But but but are the forty nine ers who have

1023
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:12,279
Speaker 4: to travel to Cleveland? Are they fat and happy after

1024
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:13,280
Speaker 4: what they did to the Cowboys?

1025
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:18,320
Speaker 3: They I trust them, I would be no. No, they're happy,

1026
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:20,919
Speaker 3: but they want more. They know what it takes. They've

1027
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:22,879
Speaker 3: won a lot of games over the last few years. See,

1028
00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:24,320
Speaker 3: I think this is what I want the Texans to

1029
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:27,360
Speaker 3: be like they had back to back wins against Jacksonville

1030
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 3: and Pittsburgh. Not that the Texans were fat and happy

1031
00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:32,440
Speaker 3: at Atlanta, but just to know that, Hey, everybody's gunning

1032
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:34,920
Speaker 3: for you. You're gonna get everybody's best game. And you

1033
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:38,879
Speaker 3: got the Falcons best game and they won. So what's next?

1034
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,239
Speaker 3: All right? Get ready every week. The more you win,

1035
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,799
Speaker 3: the more they get up to play you. How did

1036
00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:45,680
Speaker 3: the Texans get so close against the Chiefs and the

1037
00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 3: Cowboys late last year? I think those teams might have

1038
00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:51,160
Speaker 3: thought a thing or two about the ability of this team,

1039
00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 3: and the team capitalized. Donna give the Texans credit for

1040
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:57,040
Speaker 3: playing close, but this squad, you play them that close,

1041
00:45:57,120 --> 00:45:58,520
Speaker 3: they're scoring at the end of the game when they

1042
00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 3: get first in goal like they did it against the Cowboys,

1043
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:03,319
Speaker 3: or they got the ball in overtime because they got

1044
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:07,399
Speaker 3: to sack. Blake Cashman, your boy was on the Player show, right,

1045
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:10,200
Speaker 3: they got a sack. I like this group with CJ.

1046
00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:13,560
Speaker 3: Stroud being able to convert, score and win. So let's

1047
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:15,600
Speaker 3: just improve and back to the forty nine ers. I

1048
00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:16,279
Speaker 3: bet they'll be ready for.

1049
00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:18,680
Speaker 2: You know they're good because on NFL Network, I want

1050
00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:20,799
Speaker 2: to say it was this morning they were ranking their

1051
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:25,600
Speaker 2: top five favorite or best or most impressive forty nine ers.

1052
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:29,480
Speaker 3: Oh geez, all time, Like right now, I think I.

1053
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:31,839
Speaker 1: Didn't watch it. I was just I was walking by

1054
00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:32,359
Speaker 1: passing him.

1055
00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:34,799
Speaker 2: I thought, Okay, they're definitely getting the love nationally as

1056
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:38,160
Speaker 2: they should. And brock Purty everyone is. You know, it's

1057
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,640
Speaker 2: not the underdog story anymore. I mean he's like, he's

1058
00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:42,799
Speaker 2: like a legitimate contender here.

1059
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:45,640
Speaker 4: You even got a new nickname, block Party.

1060
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:48,840
Speaker 2: Who you know you're legit when you have a nickname.

1061
00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:51,480
Speaker 2: I'm trying to get cash Money Records.

1062
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:51,640
Speaker 4: To be a thing.

1063
00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:53,239
Speaker 3: Cash Money Records, that's what.

1064
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:56,120
Speaker 2: Jalen Petrie calls Blake Cashman, and I was told Blake,

1065
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:57,279
Speaker 2: I'm like, that should be your name.

1066
00:46:57,320 --> 00:46:59,120
Speaker 3: I might have to throw that in record.

1067
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:02,760
Speaker 4: Also with cash Outside, like the cash side, that's appreciate.

1068
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:05,319
Speaker 1: I wonder if he knows that or is he too

1069
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:05,800
Speaker 1: young to know?

1070
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:07,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, he knows it. We did a top five cashes

1071
00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:12,879
Speaker 4: ranking back of the preseason. Saradi said she she was fifth.

1072
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:15,960
Speaker 1: Cash Money Outside.

1073
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:19,880
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, well from there to Texans matchup, I

1074
00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:22,840
Speaker 2: don't really know if there's a good way to transition that.

1075
00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:23,520
Speaker 1: But we're coming up.

1076
00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:26,160
Speaker 2: We've got John Harris breaking down the best from Sunday's

1077
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 2: game and looking ahead also to the next game against

1078
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:30,960
Speaker 2: the Saints. But that's going to do it for Texans

1079
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,440
Speaker 2: All Access. Thank you so much for listening, and as always,

1080
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:34,240
Speaker 2: go Texans.
