1
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 1: Fass Is the OTP four D presented by Farm Bureau

2
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:18,079
Speaker 1: Health Plans. Let the experts at Farm Bureau Health Plans

Speaker 1: coach you through it. When you need great healthcare coverage

4
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 1: at a price you can afford. They've been protecting Tennessee

5
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: and since nineteen forty seven, Rhett Bryan, Mike Keith the

6
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: OTP four downs, and we thought we would be leading

7
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:37,800
Speaker 1: off with the car ride home, the stop in Columbus,

8
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 1: Indiana at Freddie's Steak Burghers, which we're outstanding. Yes, I

9
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:46,200
Speaker 1: think most of us had the concrete oh yeah, which

10
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 1: was out of this world. I think we thought we'd

11
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: be talking about the musical choices, introducing the young people

12
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: to the Baker's feel sound. Yes, a lot of fantastic,

13
00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: a lot of fantastic country music that we got a

14
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: chance to play and share on the way up the

15
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: way down, A jovial ride, and a great story. Instead,

16
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 1: we talk about the shock of this morning, which is

17
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 1: the fact that Derrick Henry is going to have surgery

18
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:18,399
Speaker 1: on Tuesday, November second to repair a foot injury. Rhett,

19
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 1: we had an idea. The foot thing was not good.

20
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,039
Speaker 1: I don't think we had an idea. It was to

21
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: this level. No, not at all, And in fact, it

22
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 1: was a bit of a shock when you went to

23
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: Amy Wells and here it is about six minutes left

24
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: in the first quarter, in between the Titans second and

25
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:40,479
Speaker 1: third drives, and sure enough he's down there with Todd Torresselly,

26
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: the head trainer for the Titans, and they're looking at

27
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 1: his right foot and it's being examined, and the next

28
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: thing you know, he's spat it up pretty heavily with

29
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: a tape job and he's back in there. So you're thinking, Okay, well,

30
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: maybe this is a bump on the road. Not so much. Well,

31
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 1: the bottom line with a foot injury is normally a

32
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: guy doesn't go back in the game, right because normally

33
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: that player is so uncomfortable they are not able to continue.

34
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry is not normal, which we know and which

35
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: we saw again yesterday at Lucas Oil Stadium. The Titans

36
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: don't win that football game yesterday without him and his threat,

37
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: which put the play action back in. Also, he had

38
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 1: a fourth down run where he made it on his own,

39
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 1: he didn't have it and somehow got there. Derrick Henry

40
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: did a few Derrick Henry things, just not as many

41
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 1: as we've normally seen, which gave us a hint. But

42
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: again when the news hit this morning, it was certainly

43
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: a bomb to everybody who loves the Titans. Well, you

44
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: don't feel like if you're a Titans fan that it

45
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: just took the luster off of six and two November,

46
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: the first meaningful football coming three game, leading the division

47
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 1: number one seed. If the playoffs were to start to

48
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: day all that's silly to think about, but just the

49
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: success and making it through a covey of injuries up

50
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 1: through this to get to a six and two record

51
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: and you're feeling good about things, and then the world

52
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 1: tails office, it's access a little bit, all right. So

53
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: the Derrick Henry injury news certainly something we will cover

54
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,679
Speaker 1: during the course of the week. Let's go through and

55
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 1: do the OTP four D, which is four downs. First down,

56
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,799
Speaker 1: is reet Brian your play that turned the game? This

57
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 1: would be the Colt's possession with two fifty nine left

58
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 1: in the first quarter. They go for it on fourth

59
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: and three at their own forty yard line, and there's

60
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 1: a deep ball that Carson Wentz throws to Michael Pittman

61
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:49,119
Speaker 1: that is incomplete turnover on downs and then a few

62
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: plays later and leading into the next quarter, that's the

63
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: Jeff Swain touchdown, and all of a sudden, the score

64
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: is cut in half. After they got out to a

65
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: fourteen nothing lead. That is where I thought, Okay, not

66
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: only just going to be a war for four quarters,

67
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: but the Titans aren't going to let this thing get away.

68
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: I thought that was a big moment in the ball game, obviously,

69
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: because if they go down and score right there, it

70
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: almost feels like it's Chiefs Titans. A week later with

71
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 1: the Titans on the wrong side of it, like the

72
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 1: Colts are gonna run and hide, and instead, once it

73
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: became a ball game, once the two teams were standing

74
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: in the center of the ring punching, it was at

75
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 1: that point you never felt like the Titans were gonna lose.

76
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: You never had the sense, even in the darkest moments,

77
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,799
Speaker 1: you never felt like, and I don't think the crowd

78
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 1: felt like the Colts were gonna win. It was a

79
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: confidence factor that the Titans had that the Colts never

80
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 1: had during the course of the ball game, even when

81
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: the earth was tilted in their favors so much, which

82
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 1: it was on several different occasions. Yeah, and to your

83
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: boxing and analogy. It felt like, Okay, you've delivered a

84
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: massive shot, now you've absorbed one, now you've delivered another one.

85
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 1: And it's this back and forth between a couple of heavyweights.

86
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 1: And look, we outlined it all last week on anything

87
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: we did Titans Radio. We knew that the Colts had

88
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,039
Speaker 1: had recent success. They had a three and four record,

89
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: a two game win streak, They had life, and they

90
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,599
Speaker 1: knew the importance of this game, and they knew what

91
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 1: it meant if they lost it. And they lost it,

92
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 1: and they did. My play is an overtime third down

93
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 1: in six Indianapolis thirty four yard line, Carson Wentz pass

94
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: incomplete deep middle to Zach Pascal. Good played by Chris Jackson.

95
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 1: There and you're saying, oh, wait a minute, there's so

96
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: many others. You could use Elijah Moulden's touchdown. You could

97
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,160
Speaker 1: use Randy Bullock's field goal. You could use the fifty

98
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 1: seven yard touchdown play to a j. Brown. You could

99
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: talk about the fact that Taekwon Lewis intercepted the past

100
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 1: and then fumbled it right back to the Titans. All

101
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 1: of those can talk about the Ryan Tannehill with a

102
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,159
Speaker 1: thirteen yard run on fourth down. Yeah, but I'm going

103
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 1: with this play because all of the momentum in the

104
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: building at the start of overtime was with the Indianapolis Colts,

105
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 1: every single bit of it. First play of overtime, Taylor

106
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 1: goes for four yards to the thirty four incomplete pass

107
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 1: on second down, third down. If they complete it and

108
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,479
Speaker 1: they get rolling, I think there's a pretty good chance

109
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: they go win the ball game. But they didn't. Just

110
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 1: like I said, there was never that moment that they

111
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: grabbed it where you felt like they had it at

112
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 1: A player like Chris Jackson made a key play right

113
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: there at the start of the first drive. To me,

114
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,840
Speaker 1: that one jumps out the buyered interception was pretty sure.

115
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 1: But I'm digging deeper. I'm going deeper. I'm not taking

116
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:59,279
Speaker 1: the easy way out, peeling the layers. Yes, second down,

117
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 1: Rhett Bryan, your stat that tells the story. The Colts

118
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,359
Speaker 1: rushed for eighty three yards as a team. Now, we

119
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: had both talked about how Jonathan Taylor only had ten

120
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: carries in the first game that they lost at Nissan

121
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 1: Stadium in Week three, but the fact that again they

122
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 1: went after the Titans a different way, and let me

123
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 1: give some credit to the Titans defense. But eighty three

124
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 1: yards as a team, that's four yards less than what

125
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 1: they did in Week three against the Titans. That one

126
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: stands out to me. Here's the one that stands out

127
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 1: to me. Carson Wentz twenty seven of fifty one passing

128
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: during the course of the ball game is what he

129
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: ends up. That's roughly fifty three percent, two hundred and

130
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 1: thirty one yards, three touchdowns in two interceptions. We'll remember this.

131
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 1: He had throw two touchdown passes in the first seven

132
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 1: to sixteen of the game right so from then on

133
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: and he was eighteen of twenty seven at halftime, So

134
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 1: in the second half and in overtime, Carson Wentz completed

135
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 1: less than fifty percent of his passes. The Titans doing

136
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: a good job. When you're limiting the opposing team to

137
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 1: fifty three percent completions, that's fantastic because the league average

138
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: is sixty six percent. So the other thing, too, is

139
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 1: you're giving yourself a chance to win time of possession

140
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: because they're running so many plays when the clock has stopped.

141
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 1: That's excellent defense overall. And the Titans did indeed end

142
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 1: up winning time of possession by four minutes when at

143
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 1: the end of the first quarter, they had been out

144
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 1: possessed by nearly five minutes. Yeah, so that was a

145
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 1: great rally by the defense. Overall, they gave up only

146
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 1: three hundred seven yards after giving up one seventeen in

147
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: the first quarter. Pretty good effort by the defense. Yeah,

148
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: they have just continued to find a way to step

149
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 1: and make plays and from some unlikely places. It's been

150
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 1: that way on all three phases. Though. Your area that

151
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 1: the Titans have to get fixed, well, I don't know

152
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 1: how much of this is Carl Cheffer's crew or a

153
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 1: little of both, but i'd say the penalties again, you

154
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: had eleven accepted penalties for one hundred and sixty one yards.

155
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,319
Speaker 1: I think there were twenty total accepted penalties between the

156
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: two teams for like two thirty six or whatever. But

157
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 1: you got to watch that. You don't need stuff like that,

158
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 1: the defensive passing interference penalties in particular, and you had

159
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 1: the big one with a Moni Hooker that resulted in

160
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 1: a big play later on. You got to watch that stuff.

161
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 1: We got to find the ball. Yeah, that's the key

162
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: in the whole thing is you can't be running around

163
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 1: like a windmill as you're chasing a guy who's behind you,

164
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 1: because the minute you do, what he's gonna do is

165
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: he's gonna come back and go through you and is

166
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: going to draw the foul. If you know where the

167
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,439
Speaker 1: ball is and you can make any sort of play

168
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: on the ball, then you give yourself that chance. But

169
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 1: the Titans, I mean, this was back to the Jets

170
00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 1: game with some of the deep ball issues. The other thing, too,

171
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: is that ball that Pittman caught. You've got to batted down.

172
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,200
Speaker 1: That pass has to be batted down, if not intercepted.

173
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 1: Certainly I agree with you in that area. The Titans

174
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,839
Speaker 1: run game. That's what I'm going with. And you're saying,

175
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 1: no kidding, considering that Derrick Henry news, considering that Derrick

176
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 1: Henry is out for an indefinite period of time. But

177
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,199
Speaker 1: here's what I mean by that, Titans are going to

178
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,959
Speaker 1: have a new running back. Titans are still gonna want

179
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: to run to football. They didn't block it up very

180
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 1: well yesterday. Derrick Henry took a lot of hits very quickly.

181
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 1: Had he been a hundred percent healthy, I don't know

182
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,439
Speaker 1: that he would have gained a lot more than sixty

183
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 1: eight yards. I just didn't think they had a very

184
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 1: good game in the run blocking. Their assignment football in

185
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 1: the run game without Derrick Henry is going to have

186
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 1: to be better, because Rhett I got news for you.

187
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,680
Speaker 1: This team is not going five wide. They're not going

188
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 1: shotgun every down. They're not to throw it sixty times

189
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: a game. It's not the way this offense is built.

190
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 1: It's not the way the football team is bright. The

191
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 1: football team is built to be complementary, and they're going

192
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: to have to do some things in the run game. Yes,

193
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 1: I get that they're probably not going to outrush twenty

194
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 1: five teams the rest of the way, but they have

195
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: to find a way to run it. And so that's

196
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 1: up to the old line, that's up to the tight ends,

197
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 1: that's up to the receivers, that's obviously up to the backs,

198
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 1: and to Tanny Hill with calling the checks. But nobody

199
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 1: had a very good day yesterday in the run game,

200
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 1: and they've got to find a way. I mean, Derreck

201
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 1: Henry's longest run was nine yards. Tannehill had two thirteen

202
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,320
Speaker 1: yard run, but thirty one carries for ninety three yards

203
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 1: not good enough in any situation for the Titans. So

204
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 1: assirisk yes, because Henry was dinged up. I get it.

205
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: But now they've got to be finer, They've got to

206
00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 1: be more precise, they've got to be better. Worth down

207
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 1: something that you noticed and want to share. I think

208
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 1: it's just the disbelief in the crowd with the way

209
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: the things went down in the overtime, because you're right

210
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,599
Speaker 1: up to that moment they thought everything was tilted in

211
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 1: their favor, especially when the Colts won the coin toss

212
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 1: in overtime, and how it quickly got quiet. Yeah, I

213
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 1: always I'm kind of just taking in the crowd and

214
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: that and the other part of that, of all these

215
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 1: penalties that we mentioned a minute ago, when there were

216
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 1: some that went in the favor of the Titans, I

217
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 1: could hear how many Titans fans had traveled north to

218
00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 1: Lucas Oil Stadium to say hello and watch a game.

219
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: A J. Brown. I just want to reinforce what he

220
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 1: has statistically done. Do you realize through five games he

221
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:50,199
Speaker 1: had ten catches, he had twenty five targets and ten catches.

222
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: Now he missed a game, but think about that targeted

223
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:57,719
Speaker 1: twenty five times ten catches. That's a forty percent race. Yeah,

224
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 1: since that time in the second half half of the

225
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: Buffalo game, really second half of the Buffalo game, so

226
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,319
Speaker 1: that's really through five and a half game right right,

227
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,679
Speaker 1: In the last two and a half games, he has

228
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 1: been targeted twenty nine times and he has twenty five catches.

229
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 1: That's a little bit north of that would be way north.

230
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 1: I don't know about that Murphysborough math. You're Glenn High

231
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 1: School math that we're getting there, you were taught, Well,

232
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 1: that's an over eighty five percent ratio at that point. Yeah,

233
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 1: you're you're in. You know, it's like Randy Bullocks field

234
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 1: goal percentage. It's like it's almost as good as Rading

235
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 1: Bucks goal percentage. But back to back hundred yard games,

236
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:45,840
Speaker 1: massive numbers, overall good yards per catch again, a fifty

237
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: seven yard touchdown. They got a touchdown without a drive,

238
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 1: which they desperately needed in this game because their run

239
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 1: game wasn't that good. I think A J. Brown returning

240
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 1: to form is what gives Titan fans some optimism even

241
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 1: in this dark moment, because the story yesterday was AJ

242
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 1: Brown saying this show is the King and I'll play

243
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 1: thank you. Because he stepped onto that stage and made

244
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 1: his presence felt to everybody who was in attendance at

245
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 1: Lucas Oil Stadium. They tried to cover him one on

246
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 1: one and that was not happening. They're gonna need more

247
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 1: of that out of him. And the Titans are six

248
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 1: and two because guys have stepped up during injury, and

249
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 1: they're six and two because they've been tough, and they're

250
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 1: six and two because they've had good play calls and

251
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 1: good game plans and good things have happened. But they're

252
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 1: six and two mostly in my opinion, because they're best

253
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 1: players have stepped forward in the big moment, and that's

254
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: what you pay them to do. Teams that win championships

255
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: have their best players stepped forward in big moments in

256
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 1: the National Football League, and aj Brown stepping forward in

257
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 1: this moment should give Titans fans hope that even without

258
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry for whatever period of time that ends up

259
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 1: being and we don't have any idea, it gives them

260
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: hope that this offense can keep rolling because they still

261
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: have a dynamic weapon at wide receiver like they haven't

262
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 1: had in fifteen years. And to underline that, Mike, there're

263
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 1: gonna be some games down the stretch where they're gonna

264
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: it's gonna need to be the King and Us, And

265
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 1: I think that's the other thing that gives me hope.

266
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 1: I'm so glad that Aj is in the fevered pitch

267
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 1: he's building up to in all of this. But when

268
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: I say the King and Us, the Jeff Swain's making

269
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 1: touchdowns Nick Westbrook a Kina, you know you're gonna need

270
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:44,480
Speaker 1: some of that in spots. And I'm so glad that

271
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: there's guys in there who are contributing that don't always

272
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: have their number called or not as frequently as the

273
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 1: aforementioned AJ Brown. So I want to mention one stat

274
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 1: that I had been working on. It was for TV,

275
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 1: and it's not gonna run now. It's started something called

276
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: the King's Count, Aware the King's Count on our TV programs,

277
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 1: And it was something fun that we wanted to do

278
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 1: because our fans had been so excited about all that

279
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:15,320
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry was doing. They took such pride in Derrick

280
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 1: Henry's accomplishments and that he was putting the Titans on

281
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 1: much more of a national stage. And now that's I'm

282
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 1: gonna say, paused, because I'm not going to say that's

283
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 1: over because we don't know what it means for the

284
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 1: remainder of this year regular season or postseason, and we

285
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 1: certainly expect it will continue in twenty twenty two, which

286
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: is something that's very exciting. But Derrick Henry played forty

287
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 1: three games to begin his NFL career. He has played

288
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: eighty six regular season games, the last of the first

289
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 1: forty three of his career against the Jets December two,

290
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. At the end of those forty three games,

291
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 1: he had four hundred fourteen carries for one thousand, seven

292
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: hundred eight yards and fifteen touchdowns four point one yards

293
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 1: per carry, two games of one hundred yards or more

294
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 1: and the Titans were twenty four and nineteen in that period,

295
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:22,439
Speaker 1: so five games over five hundred. Four days later, he

296
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:27,120
Speaker 1: played his forty fourth game, the Thursday night game against Jacksonville,

297
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 1: two hundred thirty eight yards rushing, four touchdowns, the ninety

298
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 1: nine yard run that began the second forty three games

299
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 1: of his career, which concluded yesterday. So remember what I said,

300
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 1: write this down ot people. Four hundred fourteen carries, seventeen

301
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:51,680
Speaker 1: hundred eight yards and fifteen touchdowns in his second forty

302
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:57,479
Speaker 1: three games, nine hundred eighty seven carries five thousand, eighty

303
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:03,360
Speaker 1: nine yards, fifty touchdown, five point two per carry, twenty

304
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,639
Speaker 1: three games of one hundred yards or more. Five of

305
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 1: those games went for two hundred yards or more, and

306
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 1: in that period of time, the Titans twenty nine at fourteen. Wow. Wow,

307
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:21,359
Speaker 1: Wow Wow. Derrick Henry in his second forty three games

308
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 1: gained nearly three times as many yards, scored more than

309
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 1: three times as many touchdowns, and the Titans winning percentage

310
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 1: jumped to nearly seventy percent in that period of time,

311
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,640
Speaker 1: as he averaged more than a yard per carry more

312
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 1: than he did in his first forty three games and

313
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:48,159
Speaker 1: posted twenty one more games of one hundred yards or

314
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,119
Speaker 1: more and ot. People, if you've been following and writing

315
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 1: down under the advisement of Mike Keith again my Rutherford

316
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,679
Speaker 1: County math. He did all of that on roughly just

317
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 1: a little more than double the carries. That's what's crazy,

318
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 1: because in that first four hundred and fourteen he was

319
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,919
Speaker 1: splitting time with some guys like DeMarco Murray. But he

320
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 1: did a little more than double that and all of

321
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 1: those numbers. Wow. Five two hundred yard games, twenty three

322
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 1: one hundred yard games, five point two a carry over

323
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 1: four point one on the first forty three. Wow, So

324
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 1: he'll be missed. I mean, there's absolutely no question that

325
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,400
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry is going to be missed as he has

326
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 1: the foot surgery. But you get a hunch that these

327
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,080
Speaker 1: Titans are gonna find a way. The national people say no.

328
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 1: You see them to a man, woman and child on

329
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 1: TV on social media, Titan season is over. I don't

330
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 1: believe that. I don't either. I just don't buy it

331
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,679
Speaker 1: because I think they're going to find a way. And

332
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 1: is it gonna be easy? No? Is it the biggest

333
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: loss this team could have? Absolutely, But my goodness, you

334
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:52,919
Speaker 1: can have you can have an argument about whether it's

335
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:56,639
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill or or Derek Hendry in this as to

336
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 1: which is the bigger loss. This has certainly did, in

337
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 1: my opinion, the bigger loss because of what we've outlined

338
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,720
Speaker 1: with the way this team is built, it's built through

339
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 1: twenty two. I think the thing that's going to be

340
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 1: interesting in all of this, and I am going off

341
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 1: of my limited medical knowledge, but I don't know that

342
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 1: Derek has ever had a major injury of any kind

343
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 1: in his football career. And I mean from Yulee Hornet

344
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,919
Speaker 1: in Florida all the way forward. I don't remember him

345
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,640
Speaker 1: having anything like this. So we're going to find out

346
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,680
Speaker 1: what the timetable is. We're going to find out if

347
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 1: he is a cyborg or superhuman or whatever. I think

348
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:35,439
Speaker 1: that's the interesting thing in all this is that it

349
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 1: is unchartered waters for him, this medical and training staff

350
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,399
Speaker 1: and what comes out on the other side, And I

351
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 1: do believe there will be another side. Just where are

352
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 1: we from there? It sure does make yesterday's win even

353
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 1: bigger to take the pregame lead in the division, to

354
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 1: sweep the season series, and I know you don't have

355
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 1: to see the Colts again, and you don't have to

356
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 1: see them again. Yeah, it's it's a massive win to

357
00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 1: start with, but with today's news, I think it becomes

358
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 1: even bigger as the Titans focus on the rest of

359
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 1: the season. I heard somebody this morning say, well, I

360
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 1: don't think the Titans will make the playoffs now, and

361
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 1: I'm my boy, I don't think you've watched this team play.

362
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,919
Speaker 1: I just I don't buy it. I listen. I know

363
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 1: it's gonna be hard, especially going to play the Rams

364
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 1: with Von Miller on Sunday Football. I guess there's I

365
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,919
Speaker 1: get it. We'll see. Well that's gonna do it. For
