1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,120 Speaker 1: Drey. Let's talk about some of this one. The defense 2 00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:06,720 Speaker 1: holds the Rams to two touchdowns in the entire game, 3 00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 1: and they get the ball away from the Rams to 4 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:12,879 Speaker 1: enable the offense to have another chance at this When 5 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 1: you look at the numbers at the end of the day, 6 00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: rushing yards for LA seventy two. Stafford did throw for 7 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 1: two forty five, and you just gave us the sack 8 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,400 Speaker 1: report earlier. He went twenty one of twenty nine for 9 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 1: a touchdown. They weren't able to really rattle him enough 10 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 1: in this one, yet two touchdowns at the end of 11 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 1: the day. If I tell you that number coming into today, 12 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:33,040 Speaker 1: you'll take it every. 13 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 2: Time, no doubt about it. It was just a game 14 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 2: of about consistency or of consistency or lack of consistency 15 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 2: on the part of the Texans. Yeah, you had some 16 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 2: moments defensively. Offensively, I thought, you know, the running game 17 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 2: was there at times, but not consistent enough. Pass protection 18 00:00:55,960 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 2: was there at times, wasn't consistent enough. Got hit way 19 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,480 Speaker 2: too much in this football game. And then you know, 20 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,119 Speaker 2: able to move the football at times, but not when 21 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 2: you really needed it too. So that's the word I 22 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 2: come away from this one with is just being consistent. 23 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 1: What about the running game when you look at the 24 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 1: rushing net yards, Texans ran it for one to fourteen hour. 25 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: Big part of that was Strouds scrambles thirty two yards 26 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 1: on five carries. But Nick Chubb makes his Texans debut 27 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 1: thirteen carries sixty yards. You got to like what you 28 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 1: saw from him, some hope for the future, but other 29 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: guys need to step up as well in the ground game. 30 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 2: I think he proved today that he's a reliable option. 31 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 2: There are times when he certainly looked like the Nick 32 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 2: Chubb of old, and the Texans will benefit that from that. 33 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 2: In the running game, just got to be who's gonna 34 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 2: start the game, who's up front and have some consistency 35 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 2: in both the running game and pass protection. But Nick Chubb, 36 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 2: he played well average four and a half yards a 37 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 2: little over four and a half yards per carry with 38 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 2: a long of thirteen CJ ran it well when he 39 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 2: needed two at times, and they're gonna have to count 40 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 2: on that at times. And then Dari, you know, the 41 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,359 Speaker 2: two carries he had for nine yards, still four and 42 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 2: a half yards of carries, so when they needed it 43 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 2: at times, it was there, just not enough of. 44 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: It things We won't know. What would the line have 45 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,799 Speaker 1: been like with the configuration where ed Ingram is playing guard. 46 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: What would the offense look like with Christian Kirk out 47 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: here he was unable to go today, or even Braxton 48 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 1: Burrios because you look at the rookies, Higgins with two catches, 49 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: Noel with one, and again Stroud's got to get him 50 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: the ball. But Stroud under pressure a lot, having to 51 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: find some reliable receivers. You talked about consistency. What'd you 52 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 1: think of the passing attack with these receivers. 53 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,679 Speaker 2: I thought at times it was there. I think Higgins, 54 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 2: you know, if his frame the ball that was intercepted 55 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 2: by Kobe Durant, He's got to bring that one in. 56 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 2: He's got his hands on it. It's coming down, and 57 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 2: Durant just went up and fought him for it, took 58 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 2: it away before they both made contact with the ground. 59 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 2: He'll learn from that. That's the learning experience for a rookie. 60 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 2: I just didn't think there was enough in the passing 61 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 2: game to just to be able to call it or 62 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 2: define it as consistent. 63 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 1: And mistakes of plenty. Today we talked about turnovers at 64 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: the end. The big one eleven penalties eighty yards against. 65 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,239 Speaker 1: That's a lot of yards. That's a lot of infractions. 66 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: That's a lot of stuff that really hurt you offensively 67 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:26,399 Speaker 1: and defensively. 68 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, when you when you start mixing in penalties and 69 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,919 Speaker 2: you're starting drives inside you're twenty inside your ten yard line, 70 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 2: it's a hard way to do business in this this game, 71 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 2: you know, in the game of football, and so a 72 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 2: lot of it boils down to field position. And when 73 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 2: you get good field position, you do and play the 74 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 2: games a lot differently than when you do or the 75 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 2: way you play it when you're you're backed up opposed 76 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 2: to when you were you're backed up and you have 77 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 2: to you're in more of a protection mode when you're 78 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 2: When you're that way, it's kind of like a boxer 79 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 2: and you got your back on the ropes. You know 80 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 2: you're protecting when you're in that instance, as opposed to 81 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 2: being in the middle of the ring when you're you 82 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 2: know you're you're slugging it out, so to speak. 83 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: Oh, in one, get a little more time to get 84 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: ready for Tampa Bay because it's a week from tomorrow, 85 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: So you get the extra day to prepare for Monday 86 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 1: Night football.
