See now I'm getting greedy. 10 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 3: I want more because the last couple of years you 11 00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,720 Speaker 3: only got like one in every once in a while. 12 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 3: Right last year, weren't the Texans one and eleven or 13 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 3: something at one point one in eleven? No, it's not happening. 14 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 3: This year, you got the first one at Jacksonville. You 15 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 3: look pretty good doing it, so let's see what happens Sunday. 16 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, I was gonna say, let's play at Jacksonville every week. 17 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 4: I mean, it's just that's your get well games since 18 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 4: twenty eleven. You know, you've only lost there twice. It 19 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 4: just doesn't matter what you got poking one in London 20 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 4: when you're technically at Jacksonville it's it's remarkable and that 21 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 4: was Hey, you bring up the one win eleven tries 22 00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 4: last year or twelve tries that. 23 00:00:59,000 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 5: Was the win last year. 24 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, so yeah, this one was different though, because all 25 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 4: three phases offense, defense, special teams had massive, massive, multiple. 26 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 5: Game changing plays. It was a fun, fun afternoon. 27 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: I love when Okay, so coming back from the game 28 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: and if you ever want to feel like you've got 29 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: me a little pick me up this week listening to 30 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: the Jags postgame show, I was listening to and today 31 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: I don't know why, because you know what, Sean Penergast 32 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: and Seth Payne were playing a little bit of it 33 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: this morning, and I was trying to find this pole 34 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: that Mike Dempsey had put out there he does the 35 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,680 Speaker 1: Jags post game show. He's like, I just put out 36 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:37,040 Speaker 1: a pole for the fans. What was the most embarrassing 37 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: part of the game, And then he had like three 38 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: really awful things and it was just such a horrendous 39 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 1: pole that I just thought there was no positivity. They're 40 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: just so down on themselves. I mean, it feels like 41 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: this has just reshifted their entire thinking of where they 42 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: stand in the division. It's not like Oh, it's just 43 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: one game. Let's just turn the page and move forward. 44 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: Like this has them shook, like they are after this game. 45 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 2: And so we were. 46 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 1: I was going back and I was listening to it, 47 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: and Drew had an excellent point. 48 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 2: He was listening to what was it, Drew the Inn 49 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 2: Stadium halftime show. 50 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 4: They were cal Brian Sexton and Fred Taylor. You know, 51 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,079 Speaker 4: Jaguars great, probably gonna be in the Hall of Fame 52 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 4: at some point someday. But boy, as Mark, I don't 53 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 4: know if you caught any of it because you're you're working. 54 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 4: But as the fans were booing the Jaguars into the 55 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 4: locker room at the half, they were unloaded like the 56 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 4: end game was like, it doesn't look like they're ready. 57 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 4: It doesn't look it looks like a lack of preparation. 58 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 4: I mean, I was like, whoa. 59 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 2: What can you imagine Cecil and Drew doing. 60 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 6: That at halftime? Oh my gosh, can you. 61 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: Even I can't even fathom a world in which you 62 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: would say about the team that you're there to cheer on, 63 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: like they just look like they haven't put it in 64 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:48,079 Speaker 1: the effort. 65 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 4: Now, listen, I've been doing to hear though in the 66 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 4: Bowl for a decade and I have and whether it's Chester, 67 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 4: whether it's Cecil, we've seen a lot of stinkers at 68 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 4: the first half, a lot. But and you don't have 69 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 4: to say, hey, they're playing, you don't have to like lie. 70 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 4: But the approach on our end is usually okay, well, 71 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 4: what do they need to do in the second half 72 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 4: to get back in this It's you know, yeah, you 73 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 4: can only do so much. But I don't know if 74 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 4: you guys noticed Mark, I know you noticed this. But 75 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 4: at the start of that game, and I'm talking about 76 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 4: ten fifteen minutes before that thing started, hot hot, hot day, 77 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 4: and we're accustomed to sparser crowds in Jacksonville, that was 78 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 4: not the case. 79 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 5: That lower Bowl was full, the upper part of it. 80 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 4: There were a few little, you know, patches here and 81 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 4: there where there are some empty seats, but that was 82 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 4: a full stadium. They were one and one. They were 83 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 4: ready to rock. It's a division champ. They thought, all right, 84 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 4: we're gonna get one today. It's gonna be a fun one. 85 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 4: And man, by this second quarter, there were lots and 86 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 4: lots of empty seats. And some of that was the heat, 87 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 4: but I think a lot of that was the heat 88 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 4: in combo with the Texans just beating them down. 89 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, and Jacksonville's going through a tough time right now. Look, 90 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 3: I'm not here to make people from Jacksonville feel better 91 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 3: about their situation. If anything, I want them to feel worse. Kidding, 92 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 3: but here's the deal. You're right about the success of 93 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 3: the Texans in Jacksonville. They are coming off the division championship. 94 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 3: They raise ticket prices, which I get. They had success 95 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 3: last year and they probably haven't done it in a while. 96 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 3: I don't know their whole history. But all this talk 97 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 3: about the two billion they need to improve the stadium, 98 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 3: they're not even really talking about new stadium. They're going 99 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 3: to completely retro fit the Gator Bowl, which is what 100 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 3: that used to be, and make it even better. And 101 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 3: I know they've done stuff to it over the years. 102 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 3: I don't know what they'll do to the swimming pools. 103 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 3: I would imagine chlorinate them better, because they need to 104 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 3: do that. They were a little murky looking, I guess 105 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 3: for obvious reasons. You know what, the funniest thing is, 106 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 3: everyone's seen the pools by now up in the upper deck. 107 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: By the way, there were Texans fans in that pool too. 108 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: The traveling Texans traveled into. 109 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 6: That pool, which. 110 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 2: They were in the front. 111 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 3: The funniest thing about the pool is during the anthem 112 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 3: when you see people in their bathing suits standing in 113 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 3: the water with their ants on their arts, standing up. 114 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 3: I hear the roads for theirs and they're three stories 115 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 3: higher than you in a pool and you can see 116 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 3: their entire body. It's just kind of funny as they 117 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 3: stand straight up for the anthem. This is one of 118 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 3: those things. I just said, look look over there, look 119 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 3: at the PI during the anthem. All right, So, but 120 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 3: they are going through that. Locally, a lot of people 121 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 3: don't want to see local funds go to that two 122 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 3: billion that shot Con needs to make the stadium competitive. 123 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 3: The CEO, president, whatever, the franchise is out there in 124 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 3: the community taking a lot of heat for this and 125 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 3: they're not winning, so that combination is not good for them. 126 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 3: If they were winning, you got a better sell obviously 127 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 3: for this kind of stuff. And they spend a lot 128 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 3: of time in London, So I don't know how that 129 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 3: goes over with the locals. 130 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 6: But here's the deal. It is early. 131 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 3: Anything can happen. I'm just amazed Trevor Lawrence when he 132 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 3: drops back to pass. I've said this before about certain 133 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 3: quarterbacks in Texans history where I feel terrified as the announcer, like, oh, 134 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 3: here it is third and six, and here comes Patrick 135 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 3: Mahomes or Peyton Manning or Tom Brady or whoever it is. 136 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 6: I am not terrified of Trevor Lawrence. 137 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 3: I know he did really well here in the game 138 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 3: last year at NRG Stadium, But overall, Trevor Lawrence does 139 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 3: not have a good record against the Houston Texans. What 140 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 3: is he won in four right now against the Texans? 141 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 3: And I was more nervous about what Travis Ytn was 142 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 3: doing than Trevor Lawrence as far as that Jags ground game. 143 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 3: And look, the Texans, it's not like they gave up. 144 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 3: It's not like they were dead solid perfect against the 145 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 3: run at all. They were giving up some yards on 146 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 3: the ground, but nothing like last year. They're a lot 147 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 3: better than they were. The Texans were better on third 148 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 3: down offensively, they got better on third down defensively, and 149 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 3: they obviously won the game going away by twenty at. 150 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 6: The end of it. 151 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: I just thought it was tremendous how in all three phases, 152 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: like special teams, defense, offense, like everybody had a complete game, 153 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: which is is not what we saw the first two weeks. 154 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: Right week one, it was a great performance by the defense. 155 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: The offense couldn't quite score. The second week, the defense 156 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: wasn't there a CJ. Stroud had a great game of 157 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 1: Week two, and this week it seemed like all three 158 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:05,279 Speaker 1: phases finally came together and CJ. Stroud is just bypassing 159 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 1: all these records here through just three games. According to ESPN, 160 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: I saw the stat. Djbnemy had a great story on CJ. 161 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: Stroud earlier this week that after this week three outing 162 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: Stroud is the first quarterback in NFL history to have 163 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: at least nine hundred passing yards, four passing touchdowns, and 164 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: zero interceptions in his first three career starts. I mean, 165 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: that's just if any of us thought that that would 166 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: be the case with CJ. Strudd, even the most optimistic CJ. 167 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: Stroud fans, you'd be lying. And can I just say 168 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: that after the game in the postgame press conference the 169 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: live feed, I was reading the comments and guess who 170 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: got the most love after the game at Jacksonville? 171 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 6: The most love? 172 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 2: So it's not Stroud, is It's actually no, it was 173 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 2: Lovey Smith. 174 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 6: Oh for winning the fans. 175 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: Yes, because the thing that made fans so angry this 176 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: offseason after Week eighteen was the fact that the Texans 177 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: and Lovey Smith won that final game in Indianapolis, putting 178 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: you out of the Bryce Young sweepstakes. 179 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 2: And then you get the number two pick. 180 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 1: Drew and I have talked about this at length, and 181 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 1: Drew brings up a good point that if you had 182 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: the number one pick, you would not have traded up 183 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: to number three to get Will Anderson, who's also you 184 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: saw the block field goal that he had in Sunday's game. 185 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: You've got Stroud and you've got Will Anderson. You look 186 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 1: at the other quarterbacks that are drafted in the top five, 187 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson, not playing Bryce Young, not playing c J. 188 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,319 Speaker 1: Stroud putting up these sort of numbers. So there was 189 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,599 Speaker 1: a lot of love for Lovey Smith, and you know 190 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: what it was. It was gonna work out the way 191 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 1: that it was meant to work out. As my mom 192 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: always says, you know, it's just like that's the karma 193 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: that's out there in the world, like it's going to happen. 194 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 2: The way it's meant to happen. 195 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:44,719 Speaker 6: I can bring on this show. 196 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 1: My mom is very My mom knows nothing about football, 197 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: but sometimes when I complain to her, she'll just like 198 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: throw these wise things out there, and I'm like, okay, mom, 199 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 1: but you don't understand, like the number one prospect versus. 200 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,679 Speaker 2: But she was right, Like she was right, It all 201 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 2: worked out, It. 202 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 6: All worked so far. 203 00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 5: So far? 204 00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 6: Do you tell me that your mom says are just 205 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 6: real and very wise? As you said? 206 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 1: And I had to hear what my mom says about 207 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 1: the astrodome by the way, Oh what oh yes, She's 208 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: like it needs a whole cleansing, clesing like sage, a 209 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: lot of large further than cleansing. Well, it's a version 210 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: of stage in the Indian culture. And she's she involves 211 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: hot red peppers being burnt. Oh really, the astro a 212 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: lot of bad juju or old juju. But anyway, I 213 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: think with Dimico Ryan's here, things have changed. And that 214 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: brings me to my next big story of the day. 215 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: I was watching Good Morning Football and NFL Network and 216 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 1: Peter Schrigger named Demiko Ryans the coach of the week. 217 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 6: Coach of the Week, Demiko Ryans, that is great news. 218 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:43,559 Speaker 6: He deserves it. 219 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 3: I thought the way he handled last week, whatever he 220 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,559 Speaker 3: did behind closed doors, and he talked about maybe the 221 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 3: game plan needs to simplify a little bit, right with 222 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 3: all the injuries. Let the guys fly around. He told 223 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 3: me that on Friday during his pregame interview recording. Let 224 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,599 Speaker 3: the guys fly around, make plays. They flew around and 225 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:05,199 Speaker 3: make plays. There was that going on on defense, and 226 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 3: you were dealing with an undermanned crew again. Jimmy Ward back, 227 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 3: but you lose Derek Stingley Junior. You know the rest 228 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 3: of the story. I thought they played very well under 229 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 3: those circumstances, and hopefully you get Petrie back, you start 230 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 3: getting some other guys back, Let's see where it goes. 231 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a great choice for Damiko Ryans getting that 232 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 4: head coach of the week because look at what was 233 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 4: going on offense too. Mark brings up the defensive losses 234 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 4: with Stingley, but you know, this offensive line, it took 235 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 4: a lot of slings and arrows the first couple of 236 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 4: weeks because of who was not there and what was happening. 237 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 4: And then guys who I don't know how much they're 238 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 4: going to start the rest of the way once everyone 239 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 4: is healthy. But that group that was out there on 240 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,559 Speaker 4: Sunday did an excellent job keeping Stroud up right. A 241 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 4: lot of that, you know, a lot of that praise 242 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 4: is you know, it belongs to Stroud as well, for 243 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 4: getting rid of the ball in opportune times and making good, 244 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 4: good choices. But yeah, we have and I don't think 245 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 4: we've shouted out enough what the offensive line was able 246 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 4: to do. But man, I love what Demko's bit. He 247 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 4: has been mouth to mouth resuscitation for this franchise since 248 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 4: the day he was walking through the offices, shaking our 249 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 4: hands right outside our offices. Everything has flipped one hundred 250 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 4: and eighty degrees and it's because of him. It's because 251 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 4: of him signing here and everything that's happened since. 252 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,559 Speaker 3: All Right, who loved the You put the money in 253 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,559 Speaker 3: the bank on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, cash out on Sunday 254 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 3: cash out. 255 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 6: I love cash out. 256 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 2: I feel like this can be a thing with cash 257 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 2: registers and chang change. 258 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,839 Speaker 5: Should we integrate the cash me outside girl with this 259 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 5: or no? Is that a bad choice? 260 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: Do one make a remix of Demko saying that in 261 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:44,839 Speaker 1: the locker room and add a beat to it with 262 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: her some dollar signs. 263 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 2: That needs to be a thing. 264 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 6: They keep doing this. The songs are coming. 265 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 3: Songs are coming, the poetry, the high coups, the signs, 266 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 3: all of it. 267 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,719 Speaker 6: Because this was fun and we want more of it. 268 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 3: And I just you know you have the right guy. 269 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 3: Drew's right, you know you have the right guy. But wait, 270 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 3: we just kind of passed through the c J. Stroud 271 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 3: Avenue very quickly. 272 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 2: You know we are going to spend a lot. 273 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 5: Let me let me go back. 274 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, okay, So you aren't saying it deep b Mark, 275 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 4: You're not saying this either nobody's nobody's throwing dirt on 276 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 4: the graves the NFL careers of of Reis young, yeah, 277 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 4: or nobody's saying that they've got they might have long, 278 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:29,319 Speaker 4: fruitful careers. We're all in agreement. Yes we're having c J. 279 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 4: Stroud is our guy at quarterback. But yeah, it's Lovey Smith. 280 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 4: You know he got that the the booze and the 281 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 4: the all the scorn when when they won the game 282 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 4: last year. 283 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 5: But what did you expect. 284 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 4: If you know anything at all about professional athletes and 285 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:52,439 Speaker 4: professional coaches, it's in their DNA. It's how we're wired. 286 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 4: They're not gonna if you're out there and you're active. 287 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 4: You're not going to go out there and just kind 288 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 4: of tank and take it easy. That does not happen. 289 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 4: That's not a realistic thing to think about. 290 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 5: Now. 291 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,680 Speaker 4: Up at the tippy top, where guys control who's active 292 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 4: and who's playing and who's on the team, then you 293 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 4: can maybe say those things. 294 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 5: But that was not the case last year. 295 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,959 Speaker 4: And so you can't get mad at a team, and 296 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 4: you can't get mad at a guy for going out 297 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 4: and doing what they're supposed to do, which is they 298 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,559 Speaker 4: want to win. And that's what they did, and I 299 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:24,599 Speaker 4: do think the football gods will reward you for that. 300 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 5: Think about twenty. 301 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 4: Ten, and I've said this many many times to you, guys. 302 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 4: Texans go into that final game of the year, Week 303 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,719 Speaker 4: seventeen at home against the Jaguars, who had beaten them 304 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 4: earlier in the year, and if the Jaguars won that game, 305 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 4: they go to the playoffs. I'm pretty sure they may 306 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:40,599 Speaker 4: maybe needed one or two things that happened, but it 307 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:44,199 Speaker 4: wasn't an improbable circumstance. Texans were five and ten and 308 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 4: they're probably gonna pick around six in the draft if 309 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 4: they lose that game and finish five and eleven, well 310 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 4: they do. They won, so they fall down to eleventh 311 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 4: in the draft. So instead of likely taking Alden Smith 312 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 4: or maybe Patrick Peterson is if he was available, he 313 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 4: would have been a good pick. But instead of probably 314 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 4: taking Patrick Smith, who a lot of people wanted because 315 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 4: it was a lot outside linebacker past rusher, Yeah, the 316 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 4: Texans were had to settle with JJ Watt. Now I'm 317 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,599 Speaker 4: not saying it's all linear, but it's just one of 318 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,959 Speaker 4: those things like, yeah, at the time, it doesn't look cool, 319 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 4: but it works out, and it worked out in spades 320 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 4: with JJ Watt coming here. 321 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: Speaking of which, JJ Watt will be coming here again 322 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: on Sunday Legends Game presented by Legends Homecoming presented by Ford, 323 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: along with the JJ Watt Ring of Honor ceremony at halftime, which, 324 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 1: by the way, Drew's got a great story about that. 325 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: Twenty eleven post draft, JJ's very first visit after being 326 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: drafted by the Texans to the stadium, his first impressions. 327 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: We've got watweek on Houston Texans dot Com, and JJ 328 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: Watt's been pretty pretty vocal about Demico Ryans as well 329 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: and how much he's really enjoying watching this team. 330 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 2: Speaking of enjoying watching this team. 331 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: Can I just say that whenever Dimiko team, whenever anyone 332 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: has a great place seeing him like celebrating with the 333 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: coaches and the coordinators and chess bumping with Frank Ross 334 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 1: on the sideline, Like I tweeted during the game, like 335 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 1: I'll never get sick of seeing that, And I had 336 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: so many people like quote tweeting and retweeting because that's 337 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: actually one of the things that some of the players 338 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 1: had been saying after the game that they loved looking 339 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 1: to the sideline and seeing all the juice. 340 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 2: I think Jimmy Ward was saying it. 341 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: He said, sometimes you just want to hear other people 342 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: get excited, not just the guys in your position group. 343 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 1: You want to see other guys come and you know, 344 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 1: give you a little bit of motivation and just seeing 345 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 1: like everybody celebrating, especially after and I know, you know 346 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: we had Andrew Beck on Texans huddle, but seeing the 347 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: reaction of every single player and coach on the sideline 348 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 1: for that play like that was that had to have 349 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: been the turning point, right because I think for the 350 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 1: Jags that might actually be the turning point of like 351 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: their existential mini crisis. That they're having here because I 352 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 1: think they're really struggling now to find refine their identity. 353 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 2: The Colts won at Baltimore, YEP, in overtime. 354 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 1: Now the jack have to go for a really tough 355 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 1: stint in London too, back to back games there. 356 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 2: Then I think they come home and then they have 357 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 2: a bye. Yeah, like it's it's it's gonna be a 358 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 2: grind these next few weeks for them. 359 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 3: I know we've been a little bit all over the 360 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 3: place here, but why not. We're having Furiesday Tuesday. 361 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 2: It's get I've got a lot of thoughts in my 362 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 2: head today. 363 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 6: But the Jags. 364 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 3: Drew alerted me to this that during the Jags Friday 365 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 3: press conferences, Doug Peterson is being asked questions about London 366 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 3: and he needed to shut that down fast. 367 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 6: Wait a minute, we're playing the Texans, London. Can wait. 368 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 6: We got a game Sunday. 369 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 3: But the media was the Texans come on with the 370 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 3: defending AFC South champions. It's a division game. You can 371 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 3: never think you're going to roll the ball out in 372 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 3: the NFL. Not that the Jags thought that, but the 373 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 3: media thinking that is a big mistake. 374 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 6: Have you are you new here? 375 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 3: This is the NFL where anything can happen, and I'm 376 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 3: not so sure this was anything can happen kind of game. 377 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 3: The text are getting better in front of our very eyes, 378 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 3: learning how to play. We talked about the Stroud effect here. 379 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 3: Who knows where it's going. This is a tremendous start, 380 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 3: like you said, a historic start for a quarterback. 381 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 6: I'll say this. There were throws he made. 382 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,920 Speaker 3: In camp and even though tas are remember one two 383 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,159 Speaker 3: minute situation and I might have mentioned this on a 384 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,719 Speaker 3: show before where I said to Johnny, we're watching practice. 385 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 6: I said, that's a rookie. 386 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,719 Speaker 3: He two minute situation back bank Bank got him into 387 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 3: field goal range or whatever. Score did what they needed 388 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,360 Speaker 3: to do in the situation that was presented in practice. 389 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 6: I said, that's a rookie. 390 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 3: Well, a few times on Sunday, I thought, that's a rookie. 391 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 3: That's a rookie making these plays. Okay, hitting Tank on 392 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 3: the deep ball early and Tank talked about it. We 393 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 3: wanted to announce that we are here to go. Coach 394 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 3: slow the synergy is starting to really come together with 395 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 3: the offensive players. Coach Slow, Bobby Slowak offensive coordinator. You 396 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 3: can feel the vibe really improving here. I love seeing it, 397 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 3: love seeing some of these throws. Stroud sees the game 398 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 3: in a way mos rookies do not. So let's keep 399 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 3: this thing going. 400 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 5: I know it's still only three games in, but and 401 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 5: I love those big plays that he's making. 402 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 4: But how I encouraged her, you guys, because I think 403 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,400 Speaker 4: we've been brainwashed around here and shocked into some sort 404 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:20,200 Speaker 4: of Stockholm syndrome or whatever it is. When it's third 405 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 4: and eight or no, when it's like first and fifteen 406 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 4: after a penalty, it's like a damn it, it's gonna 407 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,120 Speaker 4: be like it's gonna be a third and nineteen before 408 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:29,760 Speaker 4: we know it, and we're gonna we're gonna do a 409 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,880 Speaker 4: draw up the middle. Well, when it's first and fifteen, 410 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,199 Speaker 4: now it's not as big a deal. The Texans overcame a. 411 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 5: Few of those you know what and get it. 412 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 4: These Yeah, you don't want the penalties, but they've been 413 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 4: overcoming that and that even in the losses. 414 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 5: They've been doing that. It's been refreshing to see. 415 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 4: And like I said, it's still a small sample size, 416 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 4: so I'm I don't want to get too accustomed to it. 417 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 4: But they don't get down and they don't just kind 418 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 4: of throw throwing the towel on. And I'm not saying 419 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,919 Speaker 4: the other teams did, but in the past around here, 420 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 4: these offenses have got very very conservative, or they've just 421 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 4: not been able to overcome these little deficits, these setbacks, 422 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 4: these adversities that they get on a micro level, you know, 423 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 4: within drives. 424 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I think just having your one starter on 425 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: the offensive line would be enough to see your quarterback struggle, 426 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 1: especially rookie quarterback like CJ. But you've got four different 427 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: starters on the offensive and the only staal war is 428 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: your right guard. Yeah, you know, and you've got Laramie 429 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 1: Tunzel missing his second straight game. You just think this 430 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:31,400 Speaker 1: is going to be a tough situation for him. He's 431 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 1: got to get the ball out quick, he's got to 432 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: process things faster. But you know, when you listen to 433 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:39,879 Speaker 1: how he addresses it after the game, it's he always 434 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:41,920 Speaker 1: takes it upon himself, like, I've got to get the 435 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 1: ball out quicker. And even in not taking us the 436 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 1: fact that the offensive line did not give up a 437 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,199 Speaker 1: single sack. With that, the offensive line, like you've got 438 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 1: a lot of guys like second and third on the 439 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 1: depth chart, that are stepping up and really protecting CJ. 440 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 1: He also understands. He said, I have to help those 441 00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: guys out, like I have to get rid of the ball, 442 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:01,680 Speaker 1: or like I have to do my job better so 443 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 1: that they can help me. I mean, I think he 444 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 1: sort of sees it from not just his perspective. It's 445 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:08,719 Speaker 1: not an excuse I, Oh'll have to get the ball 446 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,120 Speaker 1: out quicker, because you know, my O line is it's 447 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: not the starters that you know that should be there 448 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: protecting for me. That's what I have found the most impressive. 449 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 1: And he takes every single win and he you know, 450 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 1: tries to get better from it, even the losses. He's 451 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: been trying to improve steadily. If the run game's not going, 452 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 1: you know, he just figures out how he can overcompensate 453 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 1: or come up with a way to win. He compares 454 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,439 Speaker 1: it a lot to just the pressure he faced at 455 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: Ohio State, and he mentioned it after the game that 456 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: he talked to Ryan Day and he said, you know, 457 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 1: at Ohio State, like I know, it's college versus the NFL, 458 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: but he said, you know, you're expected to win every 459 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 1: single week, and if it's a lesser opponent, you're expected 460 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 1: to win by a lot, and so the pressure was 461 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: always there, and I don't think he ever walked into 462 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 1: that situation at Jacksonville thought, Okay, we're down all of 463 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: these alignment We're down like all these starters on defense, 464 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: and you know, I'm we're coming in as like over 465 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 1: a touchdown underdogs to the defending champs building. And he 466 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 1: delivered and he had a phenomenal game, and I think 467 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: that's the most exciting thing to watch about him, and 468 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 1: I think everyone just feeds off that energy that he has, 469 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 1: that winner's mentality that he has. 470 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 3: It's a different context now obviously in the pro level, 471 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 3: but it's pressure, right. Pressure is pressure, and it might 472 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 3: be for different reasons, like you said, at different context 473 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 3: because you're expected to win by so much at Ohio State. Man, 474 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 3: his press conference is I'm going to give him the 475 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 3: trophy right now. He is the goat in terms of 476 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:37,920 Speaker 3: Jeckson's quarterbacks at the podium. At the podium, yeah, I've 477 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 3: mad respect for the guys who have come before him 478 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 3: right to play the position here in this building. But 479 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 3: there's something about his press conferences where it's must see TV. 480 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 3: I want to hear what he has to say. It's 481 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 3: motivational to me to hear him talk about how he's 482 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 3: going through this whole process of becoming an effective professional 483 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 3: quarterback and like you said, getting better every week. The 484 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 3: way he puts it, the way he says, the fact 485 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 3: that my son is sending me clips from CJ. Stroud 486 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 3: because he's motivated by him. That hasn't happened before. But 487 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,159 Speaker 3: there's something about him at the podium. I'll give him 488 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 3: that those goat horns already the good goat Horns for 489 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 3: being the best at the podium. Now we got to 490 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,880 Speaker 3: see it on the field continue to grow and blossom 491 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 3: and all that. I'm just talking about his press conferences 492 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 3: right now. 493 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's been fun. 494 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 4: And you know, you guys touched on it just a 495 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 4: moment ago, the synergy with Slowick and all those guys. 496 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 4: Right after he was drafted in Kansas City, you know, 497 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 4: he came through, he had this walk across to the 498 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 4: media center and then I got to go one on 499 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 4: one with him and with Willie Anderson, and I remember 500 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 4: when I asked him, but he immediately, Okay, he's been 501 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 4: a Texan for about six minutes and he had visited 502 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,119 Speaker 4: obviously with the team and knew about him, but he 503 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,640 Speaker 4: immediately started talking about I'm really excited to get going 504 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 4: with coach Slowick, coach Laser, coach Gerrod Johnson. He named 505 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:54,119 Speaker 4: the entire quarterback room and all those components and started 506 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 4: getting like detail specific. So yeah, it's been really refreshing, 507 00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 4: Like like you're talking about Mark hearing what he said 508 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 4: here in the purpose he has behind it. 509 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 5: He's very, very consistent. 510 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 4: And what's the thing that Demiko Ryans is and all 511 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 4: coaches really are preaching, Hey, you want consistency. Well, he's 512 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 4: bringing it up in his press conferences, he's been doing 513 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 4: it in the games, and most importantly, he's been consistent 514 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 4: about getting better and correcting mistakes, and he has taken steps. 515 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 4: It's been clear week one to week two to week 516 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 4: three he has kept getting better. So what's what's up 517 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 4: next in week four? That's what I want to see? 518 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 2: Wait, all right, can't wait? 519 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 1: We've got more Texans all access on the way. Of course, 520 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:32,160 Speaker 1: We've got more CJ. 521 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 2: Stroud talk. 522 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 1: I'm going to get these guys sleepers because there were 523 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 1: a lot of big playmakers in Sunday's game. We haven't 524 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 1: done sleepers of the game in a while. Who do 525 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: you think really stood out? Plus, we are going to 526 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,360 Speaker 1: go around the NFL and other team's number two overall pick. 527 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 1: Joe Namath has suggestions on what that team should do 528 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: with him. It's all coming up on Texans All Access 529 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: back with more Texans All Access. We've got a fun 530 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 1: week plan. We've got JJ Watt going to be in 531 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 1: the building, lots of legends. Demiko Ryans, you guys, I 532 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 1: know earlier we talked about it Coach of the Week 533 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:03,120 Speaker 1: and Network, So let's roll that clip Peter Frigger talking 534 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: about the Texans head coach and. 535 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:05,679 Speaker 2: What he was able to do on Sunday. 536 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 7: I pick for a coach of the Week for Week three, 537 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 7: Demiko Ryans of the Houston Texans. The Texans were down 538 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:16,679 Speaker 7: four different offensive linemen on Sunday, yet went into Jacksonville 539 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 7: on the road, into a division champions building, and Demiko 540 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 7: Ryans and the Texans found a way to win. They 541 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 7: put up their most points in two seasons. They had 542 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:30,479 Speaker 7: an offensive out pouring from their quarterback c J. Stroud, 543 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:35,640 Speaker 7: but the defense also silenced Trevor Lawrence. Demiko Ryans first 544 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 7: year as a coach. In the first two games saw 545 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:41,200 Speaker 7: the offensive line just get riddled with injuries, and yet. 546 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 2: Here comes Houston, a game that nobody. 547 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 7: Had predicted, and they storm the Jaguars in their building. 548 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 7: Guys like Tank Dell, guys like c J. Stroud, and 549 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 7: on defense, guys like Shaquille Griffin stepping up. Take a 550 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:57,400 Speaker 7: look at this. This is all starting offensive linemen who 551 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,199 Speaker 7: all were expected to be Day one guys who are 552 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 7: not able to beginning to play. Larry Tunzel a Sunday 553 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 7: inactive because of a knee injury, and yet CJ. Stroud 554 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 7: was well protected and he's off to the best start 555 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 7: of all the rookie quarterbacks. Demiko Ryans, of course, came 556 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 7: from the Houston Texans as a player, worked for the 557 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 7: Sanatisco forty nine ers as a defensive coach, and is 558 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 7: now the head coach of the Houston Texans. 559 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 6: Namiko, we see you. 560 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 7: He got the game ball from the owner, Cal McNair 561 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 7: gets the game of the Coach of the Week ball 562 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 7: from us here on Good Morning Football. 563 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 1: Good stuff from Peter Schrager and NFL Network this morning. 564 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 1: Demiko Ryan's coach of the Week. I don't think that 565 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,639 Speaker 1: I should have had account on how many times on 566 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,680 Speaker 1: the broadcast they talked about how many injuries the Texans 567 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 1: had for this game. I mean they said, how many 568 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 1: the highest number of players on I are all the 569 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,399 Speaker 1: starters that were out. I think you, guys, who was 570 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 1: the guy that you feel like? I don't know if 571 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 1: we should even take Andrew Beck out of the situation. 572 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:50,880 Speaker 2: We will leave him in there. But okay, aside from Beck, 573 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 2: who is the. 574 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: Guy that you feel like really shined in a game 575 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: that maybe no one else expected him to? 576 00:25:56,040 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 3: Blake Cashman, Blake Cashman. I think there were less expectations 577 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 3: of him, but there shouldn't have been, because we've been 578 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 3: watching him in camp and then he got hurt and 579 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 3: so a lot of people missed him. Sean made the point. 580 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 3: Sean Pendergast on the Sports Radio six ten morning program 581 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 3: made the point that maybe he got hurt before the 582 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 3: fans started showing up at camp. 583 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 6: I'm not so sure. I think he lasted a little longer. 584 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 3: But whatever the case is, he was making plays in 585 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:25,400 Speaker 3: camp and he would pick off Stroud, he would knock 586 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 3: down a ball, he would have a would be sack 587 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,359 Speaker 3: from time to time. He was really busy and Johnny 588 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 3: was talking about how fast he was in our training 589 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 3: camp shows he's faster than you think. The guy timed 590 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 3: out incredibly well at the combine for his position group and. 591 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:37,879 Speaker 4: All of that. 592 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 3: Well, in the game, he shows up and he's making 593 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 3: plays on a day where you're getting thinner at linebacker. 594 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:46,439 Speaker 3: You don't have Denzel Pairman, and we know what's happened 595 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 3: with the linebackers overall this preseason into the regular season. 596 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,640 Speaker 3: So I thought he was a massive breadth of fresh 597 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 3: air with the pick, with the fumble recovery, that was good. 598 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:57,239 Speaker 6: And Eric Murray too. 599 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 3: While I'm out at who had the hit that jarred 600 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 3: the ball loose from Agnew, how about Eric Murray because 601 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 3: he was in the concussion protocol briefly and early in 602 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,359 Speaker 3: the week it looked like, oh he can play. That 603 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 3: was key for the safeties with no Peatrie and with 604 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:10,360 Speaker 3: Jimmy Ward coming back. 605 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 4: I think the big call on Cashman because he was 606 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 4: he was also he was in this defense under Robert 607 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 4: Sola before he was traded to the Texans, and then 608 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 4: when he you know, when Dimico got in and his 609 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,159 Speaker 4: crew got to got a hold of who they were 610 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 4: going to have personnel wise, they got Cashman. They said, listen, 611 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 4: you're focusing on this spot in this spot only, and 612 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 4: they didn't move him around at different spots around the 613 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:33,880 Speaker 4: linebacking corps like he had been doing here. 614 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 5: So good call. I'm going to go with Shaquille Griffin. 615 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 2: Shaq Griffin, great choice. 616 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:38,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 617 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 4: With Stingley going down and he started, he had a 618 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 4: lot of use in the game at Jacksonville. That game 619 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 4: meant a lot to him because he was a captain 620 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 4: for the Jaguars two years ago and then he had 621 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 4: the back injury. They said thank you, but we're moving 622 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,119 Speaker 4: on and the Texans. Shack Griffin said, Hey, the Texans 623 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 4: took a chance on me, and I'm going. 624 00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 5: To forever be grateful. And so what I was able 625 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 5: to do day it's meaningful. 626 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,360 Speaker 4: And he had a you know, he had a hand 627 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 4: in that game, and that was somebody that you know, 628 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:10,440 Speaker 4: the Jaguars. I saw one Jaguars rider before the game 629 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 4: say okay, this is gonna be somebody that can pick on. 630 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 4: It'll be a real spot for the Jags to win 631 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 4: and exploit. 632 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:18,879 Speaker 5: And it was not. It did not turn out to 633 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 5: be the case. So I'm gonna go Shack Griffin. 634 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 2: He also led the team in tackles. Yeah, led the 635 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 2: defense ten tackles. 636 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go with a guy who we had 637 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,399 Speaker 1: kind of stopped talking about over the past year or so, 638 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,480 Speaker 1: Brevin Jordan. Yeah, we saw him sort of come back 639 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 1: with that with a touchdown catch, and I feel like CJ. 640 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 1: Strud was so happy for him, just talking about he said, 641 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: my guy, Brev and and the amount of respect that 642 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 1: Jordan has for CJ. We in camp, we were not 643 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 1: really sure what the future of Brevin Jordan might be, 644 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: he said Dalton Schultz. There's a lot of there's a 645 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 1: lot of new tight ends in this group, and Brevin 646 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 1: really struggled last year. 647 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 2: There was a lot of excitement around him. 648 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: He started off the season injured, came back, was injured again, 649 00:28:58,040 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 1: just really couldn't get things going. But to see him 650 00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 1: out there, I don't know if that's, you know, how 651 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: it's going to be from here on out, if he's 652 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 1: going to catch a touch on every game, Probably not 653 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: every single game if we're being realistic, But just to 654 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: see him back out there and involved in the offense. 655 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: I was really happy to see that because he's a 656 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 1: great guy. He's been a lot of fun to get 657 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: to know. In the locker room, and I feel like 658 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 1: he's been going through the last few years. But to 659 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: see him really, you know, battle through that adversity and 660 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: catch a touchdown catch, I was really happy for her. 661 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 3: I was thrilled for him, and I feel like there 662 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 3: are a lot of guys like that on this team 663 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 3: where the best ability is availability. 664 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 4: Right. 665 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 3: If they're healthy, they're making plays. He's one of those players. 666 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 3: If he's healthy, he's making plays. If he's in the offense, 667 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 3: especially this offense, for him, seems like a good fit. 668 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 3: Had the catch against the Colts, and then when he 669 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 3: shows up in the end zone, I thought, Okay, here 670 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 3: we go. Brevin Jordan Schultz has not blossomed the way 671 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 3: you want yet in this offense. There's plenty of time 672 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 3: to get that done, don't get me wrong. And Stroud 673 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 3: is very quick to credit Dalton Schultz for being a 674 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 3: big help to him just as he acclimates to being 675 00:29:56,760 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 3: a professional quarterback. Schultz has been very helpful in off 676 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 3: field and on field kind of way. It doesn't show 677 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 3: up in the stat sheet necessarily, but I think it's 678 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 3: showing up in stroud stats for the mental effect anyway. 679 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 3: But as far as the tight end group goes You're 680 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 3: right because during camp Mason Shrek is making plays and 681 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 3: Brevin's not healthy and you have Shultz and Toriano's coming 682 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 3: back eventually. Then he does come back, you're thinking, is 683 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 3: he gonna fit into this mix? Well, now he's in 684 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 3: the mix, and we'll see where it goes again. Only 685 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 3: week three, Hey, seventeen games. Guys are gonna get hurt. 686 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 3: Some guys are gonna have to sit. You know, I 687 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 3: don't know how the league's gonna handle this if we 688 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 3: ever get the eighteen games. But it's such a longer season. 689 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 3: I know it's only one game, it just feels longer 690 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 3: for these players. And just be prepared to have your 691 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 3: depth tested often, like the Texans are at the beginning 692 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 3: of the campaign. Just wait till they get everybody back. Now, 693 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 3: other guys might get hurt whatever, you hope not, but 694 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:49,960 Speaker 3: they're handling it well so far. You're one and two. 695 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 6: Hey, you're still in this thing. I was really hoping 696 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 6: the Ravens. My gosh, justin. 697 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 3: Tucker, sixty one yards for you is like it's like 698 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 3: a two foot putt for me. Let's go maybe one 699 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 3: and a half. 700 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 4: You had you have Brevin Jordan because of the touchdown pass. 701 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 4: You know what he also did he was the first 702 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 4: guy there to congratulate Andrew Beck after the kick off. 703 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 5: Oh he was, you know what guy there. It was 704 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 5: a good day. You're just happy for his guy he is. 705 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 2: He is such a fun guy to be around. 706 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 1: And speaking of the Andrew Beck I was going to 707 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 1: bring up Drew's vantage point of the Andrew Beck touchdown. 708 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 2: If you've seen it on Instagram, go to Instagram. 709 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: The Houston Texans have a clip of a fantastic end 710 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 1: zone shot of Andrew Beck running all the way down 711 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 1: the field. 712 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 2: It's it was captured by our very own Drew Dorty 713 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 2: on the field. 714 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: And if you don't believe me, just turn up the 715 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 1: volume because you can actually hear him say, oh Andrew Beck. 716 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, let me explain that some audio. 717 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 5: I was like, I'm not ashamed of it, but I 718 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 5: just want people to know the context. 719 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 4: So I interviewed Andrew Beck at the VA Hospital back 720 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 4: in May, and he did this awesome event reading to veterans, 721 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 4: hanging out with veterans, and I was doing this interview 722 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 4: with him in a hallway and it's like a tea 723 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 4: and we're sitting at the intersection of the tea and 724 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 4: doing this interview, and all of a sudden, he kind 725 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 4: of his eyes kind of start darting off to the side, 726 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 4: and he's looking off to the periphery like a weirdo. 727 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 4: And I'm thinking to myself, what is this guy doing 728 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 4: because I didn't know him. And then I hear this 729 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 4: beeping and this like it sounded like y'all's Demico Ryan's 730 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 4: And I turned left, like we stopped the interview, and 731 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 4: I turned my left and there's an actual robot that 732 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 4: dispenses medicine and we were in the way and it 733 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 4: didn't know what to do. 734 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,479 Speaker 5: So he's like, I know, there's a robot in the hospital, 735 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 5: so we had to get a good interview with him. 736 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 5: He was having fun. 737 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 4: And then I'm shooting this video and it's pure sunshine 738 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 4: because and you can't see the screen really, but I 739 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 4: can kind of tell, like the I'm following the action, 740 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 4: and then there's and there's a clump of people. And 741 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 4: then when he breaks free and there's all this real 742 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 4: estate as he's running towards the sideline, I say, oh, 743 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 4: I drove back, thinking he's gonna get about thirty forty 744 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 4: yards out of this and the Texans will be set 745 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 4: up at midfield. 746 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 5: And then he keeps. 747 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 4: He breaks like two more tackles and hurdles, and I'm 748 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 4: shooting it with my right hand, and as he gets 749 00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 4: to about the fifteen yard line, I'm pointing at him 750 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 4: and just like I've got these big eyes and the 751 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 4: sidelines going bananas behind him. I mean, there's a zillion 752 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:25,959 Speaker 4: stories about each player and coach. I think Bobby Slok 753 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 4: hurdled the kicker that got you like that flew out 754 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 4: of bounds. 755 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 5: It was so much fun. It was such a game change. 756 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 4: It sucked the entire air out of that stadium because 757 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 4: they had closed within seven built the Texans lead back 758 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 4: up to fourteen, and they were never within single digits again. 759 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 1: I mean, who had any prop bets on a fullback 760 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: running eighty five yards for a touchdown. 761 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 2: It wasn't even supposed to go. When he muffed that kickoff, 762 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 2: I was just like, what is and he scooped it up. 763 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: It was just I can't even imagine from your vantage point, 764 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 1: if you could see from overhead what was happening. I 765 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: hope somebody puts together a collage of all the pictures 766 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 1: of what everybody's doing, because we have one of John 767 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 1: Harris with an Andre hell I think it was a 768 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 1: pick six. He's like jumping in pointing. I'm sure someone Drew's. 769 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 3: Got a picture of you point I have so much 770 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:12,960 Speaker 3: audio on this, you could do a thirty for thirty 771 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:16,840 Speaker 3: on the Andrew Beck kickoff return, a whole documentary of it. 772 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 6: Now, if the Texan's going on to do some big 773 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 6: things this year, we'll see how big or what happens. 774 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:26,440 Speaker 3: This could be traced as an embryonic moment that ignited 775 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 3: the entire Let's not get carried away here. 776 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 5: It was joy good you joke, but it could well. 777 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:32,320 Speaker 5: I mean, if good things do happen. 778 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 3: Johnny automatically asked Andre and I whether this was the 779 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:41,360 Speaker 3: most unusual Texans touchdown we had ever seen, or somebody 780 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 3: who scored that you would least expect scoring. 781 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:48,280 Speaker 6: And it's right up there in a way that they scored. 782 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 3: Yes, a full back running for a touchdown on a 783 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 3: kick return, that is bizarre world for sure. And I 784 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 3: go back to Kevin Walter special teams touchdown falling on 785 00:34:57,719 --> 00:34:59,919 Speaker 3: a fumble or recovering it and in the end zone 786 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,400 Speaker 3: in Carolina Week two oh seven, and things like that 787 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 3: were unusual, but this was wild, especially the context. Like 788 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:09,720 Speaker 3: you pointed out, Drew, they're within seven, you've got to respond. 789 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 3: I was eager to see how cejaking and respond. Here 790 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 3: here's our rookie quarterback in a situation where he's got 791 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 3: to move the ball and get at least a field goal, 792 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 3: make it a two score game. 793 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 6: Again, Well, you didn't have to do that right away, 794 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 6: did he? 795 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 3: Eventually you'd find Tank Dell on that third and three 796 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 3: long sixty eight yard pass. 797 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 6: That was awesome as well. 798 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: I feel a thirty for thirty coming in your future. 799 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:29,800 Speaker 1: Mark most improbable Texans touchdowns. 800 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:31,280 Speaker 6: I want to see it the whole series. 801 00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 2: It's a whole series. 802 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:33,799 Speaker 1: All right, we're going to take a break.

You know what the significance is. 814 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:04,840 Speaker 3: Let me get your take on this, because you and 815 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,520 Speaker 3: I have not discussed this on the air or anywhere. 816 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 5: Now. 817 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 6: My take is that for Taylor, this is so funny 818 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 6: because she hides everything, does. 819 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,400 Speaker 2: So you, though I know you're secretly enjoying this and 820 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:16,840 Speaker 2: loving it. 821 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 3: I am, because she's one of the biggest pop stars 822 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 3: in the world, if not the biggest, however you want 823 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 3: to rank her, She's huge. She's bigger than she than 824 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 3: he is. On a global level, of course, and even 825 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 3: on a national level. She's far bigger than Travis Kelsey. 826 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 3: As big as he is in our world, she's even bigger, bigger. 827 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 3: But I think this is cool for her because she 828 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 3: gets to be his girlfriend. She just gets to be 829 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,279 Speaker 3: a girlfriend and walking around Arrowhead Stadium and being in 830 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 3: the suite and things like that and just raw raw 831 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:47,840 Speaker 3: touchdown and all of that. I'm happy for her that 832 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 3: she gets to have this moment. Now, I don't know 833 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,880 Speaker 3: how long it lasts, where it's going what's going to happen. 834 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:55,800 Speaker 3: Who knows. I just think it's funny and fun and 835 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 3: why not. It's good for everybody. I think it's good 836 00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 3: for her because a lot of football fans are noticing her. 837 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 3: They know who she is, but maybe they're taking more 838 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:08,280 Speaker 3: note of her and non football fans. The Kelsey jersey sales, 839 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 3: the jerseys for one hundred percent flying off the shelves, 840 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,439 Speaker 3: and a lot of people are who's Travis Kelsey because 841 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:16,320 Speaker 3: he's not the most famous player in the league, but 842 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:17,240 Speaker 3: he's a well known player. 843 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 2: Yeah he didn't. He have a reality dating show many 844 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 2: years back. He was bad. Anyway, Hopefully she doesn't pull 845 00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:24,880 Speaker 2: up that footage. 846 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 1: But I saw this entire debate on Good Morning Football 847 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,360 Speaker 1: because I think the football guys are like, oh, this 848 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 1: is great for her. She gets to be and I'm like, no, no, no, 849 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 1: you're gonna make the Swifties mad because I think she 850 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:39,239 Speaker 1: brings football to a different audience, Like that's how I 851 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 1: see her. 852 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:41,719 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I think it's like, you're gonna have. 853 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:44,399 Speaker 1: All these Swifties that are so clever, like they solve 854 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 1: puzzles to figure out track names. They're always reading clues 855 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,600 Speaker 1: into everything, like you get their perspective and their lens 856 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 1: on football. Like they even broke down Travis Kelsey's outfit pregame. 857 00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 2: He was wearing this like denim on Denham like they did. 858 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was like a tidy light blue, white cloudish 859 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 1: looking out that they were like, oh, well, this has 860 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:07,960 Speaker 1: to be a nod to Taylor's I think it was 861 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:09,280 Speaker 1: the nineteen eighty nine album. 862 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 2: So I am enjoying that. 863 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:15,320 Speaker 1: I love seeing the crossover of Swifty fans, which I 864 00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:18,400 Speaker 1: think we think teenage girls, but it's really everybody. Everybody 865 00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:19,400 Speaker 1: is a Taylor Swift fan. 866 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:19,719 Speaker 6: Yep. 867 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:24,759 Speaker 1: I like seeing that juxtaposed with football fans because she 868 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 1: is now bringing light to a game that a lot 869 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:28,320 Speaker 1: of people wouldn't watch normally. 870 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 2: If you've seen on social media. 871 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:33,399 Speaker 1: By the way, there's all these teenage girls cheering when 872 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 1: they show her in the press box right during the game, 873 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 1: and then they show Patrick Mahomes and Kelsey and all 874 00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:44,000 Speaker 1: these players on the field mouthing like oh crap, basically 875 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:46,479 Speaker 1: when they notice that she's in the press box watching them. 876 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 2: Like everyone is. Even if you're not a fan of 877 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:49,960 Speaker 2: our music, you were in all of the fact that 878 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:50,799 Speaker 2: Taylor Swifts. 879 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 6: Is they're all asked about it in the post game. 880 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:53,840 Speaker 6: Can you imagine if they had lost that game to 881 00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:54,719 Speaker 6: the Bear somehow. 882 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 2: There's no way they were going to live, right. 883 00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:59,759 Speaker 3: But they'll play another game this year, assuming they're still together, 884 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,280 Speaker 3: and she'll be in the press box, and they might lose, 885 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 3: and then I want the questions about Taylor Swift. 886 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:06,240 Speaker 2: Being a distraction. 887 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,600 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that'll be awesome. They'll handle that so well. 888 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 3: The only thing better. And Belichick even at a great 889 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 3: I was. 890 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,640 Speaker 2: Just gonna say even he was he was so complimentary. 891 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 3: But what if it was Tom Brady back in the 892 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 3: day and they were asking him about it related to 893 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 3: their team. That would have been fun to see Belichick. 894 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 1: One of the mccordy twins who knows Belichick says, I 895 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 1: think that Belichick and I thought this was an interesting take. 896 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:29,959 Speaker 2: He said. 897 00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:32,320 Speaker 1: I think that he has a lot of respect for 898 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,720 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift, just the talent and how she's the greatest 899 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 1: at what she does. She writes her music. If you' 900 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,880 Speaker 1: I saw her, I'm not a big swiftye like I mean, 901 00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:43,920 Speaker 1: I respect what she does. I did watch her documentary though, 902 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:47,919 Speaker 1: on Netflix. I did too, like America, Yes, how hard 903 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:49,879 Speaker 1: she works, and you know, they bring up the point 904 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,920 Speaker 1: that game respects game. Like he saw her concert. She's 905 00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 1: sang for five straight hours, yep. Like he is just 906 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,800 Speaker 1: a fan of greatness. So you know, maybe it's different 907 00:39:58,840 --> 00:39:59,760 Speaker 1: because it's t Swift. 908 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:00,839 Speaker 6: Yeah, I am too. 909 00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:02,839 Speaker 3: I like seeing how the great ones do their thing. 910 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:04,959 Speaker 3: And we just had Beyonce in here for two nights 911 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,320 Speaker 3: in the stadium and she's a great one. And Taylor 912 00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 3: Swift is a great one and she blew it up 913 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:11,880 Speaker 3: here and great for all of them. But it's fun stuff. 914 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:15,840 Speaker 3: It's gossip, but it's fun gossip. Sometimes this kind of 915 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:16,640 Speaker 3: stuff can be interesting. 916 00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 1: Sometimes we can have fun with it. All right, we 917 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,439 Speaker 1: teased it earlier on in this show. But another number 918 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 1: two pick in the NFL. Jo Niemath has thoughts on 919 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,960 Speaker 1: what the Jets should do with Zach Wilson. 920 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 3: Mark, what are you thinking about this? I'm saying they 921 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,600 Speaker 3: should trade Zach Wilson. Let me let me imagine how 922 00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:33,360 Speaker 3: this phone call? How is this phone call gonna go? 923 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 3: We'd like to trade Zach Wilson to you? 924 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 6: Really? Why? 925 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 3: Well, he's good, give me a good pick for him. Well, 926 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,480 Speaker 3: if he's so good, why aren't you using him, Well, 927 00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:43,359 Speaker 3: he's not that good. 928 00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:44,319 Speaker 6: We don't want them. 929 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:46,880 Speaker 3: What could they get for Zach Wilson right now? Basically 930 00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 3: saying they got to get rid of him somehow. He's 931 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:52,080 Speaker 3: not doing them any favors. I see a lot of 932 00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:54,759 Speaker 3: Zach Wilson defenders out there. Look, I've not watched every 933 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 3: stitch of Jets football this year. I saw the opening game, 934 00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 3: of course, But to me, I think they got to 935 00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 3: make life a little bit easier for them. The funny 936 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:05,960 Speaker 3: thing is this, all right, So Nathaniel Hackett, despite the 937 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 3: fact that, yes, the Jets wanted them because of Aaron Rodgers, 938 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 3: it wasn't going well last year in Denver with him 939 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:12,759 Speaker 3: as the head coach. 940 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 6: We all know that. 941 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:15,840 Speaker 3: We all know what Sean Payton said about him. We 942 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:19,400 Speaker 3: can get to that later. But Nathaniel Hackett, all of 943 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 3: a sudden, he's the offensive coordinator for Zach Wilson. Is 944 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 3: this the best system for Zach's skills? 945 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 6: Right? 946 00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 3: Might be good for Rogers, and Rogers is one of 947 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 3: the best quarterbacks ever, Zach Wilson is not. 948 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 6: Who would be better for Zach Wilson? What kind of system? 949 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:33,600 Speaker 5: I don't know. 950 00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:35,960 Speaker 3: The answers to these questions but the Jets are in 951 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,840 Speaker 3: a situation where they're forced to use him. I'm surprised 952 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 3: they haven't picked anybody yet yet. It has taken this 953 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:45,000 Speaker 3: long for them to do it, So I'll be eager 954 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 3: to see how they handle things down the stretch. Their 955 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 3: defense is still good, but you put so much pressure 956 00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,160 Speaker 3: on them with a quarterback like Zach Wilson's not effective. 957 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:55,120 Speaker 1: I just think it's such a horrible He should not 958 00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:57,920 Speaker 1: be weighing in on it like so publicly. What if 959 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson turns around and has a great game. I mean, 960 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:02,879 Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's gonna happen, but you know, you've 961 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:04,839 Speaker 1: got like Carson Wentz up there, You've got Matt and Ryan, 962 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:07,440 Speaker 1: you got all these quarterbacks sort of vying for that spot. 963 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:09,759 Speaker 2: What if you bring in another guy and he's no better. 964 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:13,920 Speaker 6: Here's the thing. Zach Wilson is supremely talented. So is CJ. Stroud. 965 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:16,879 Speaker 3: And look, I'm not gonna, you know, spike the ball 966 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 3: yet here, but through three games, I love what I'm 967 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:20,200 Speaker 3: seeing out of CJ. 968 00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:20,720 Speaker 6: Stroud. 969 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:24,719 Speaker 3: When my quarterback says stuff like pressure is a privilege, 970 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:27,400 Speaker 3: sign me up to that guy, right, He is a 971 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 3: student of the game. 972 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:32,440 Speaker 6: I love listening to him. He's motivational for me. Right. 973 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 3: I'm not saying Zach Wilson lacks all of that, but 974 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:38,640 Speaker 3: I'm not hearing it from him. I don't follow him 975 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:42,480 Speaker 3: as closely, obviously. But some guys get better, some guys learn, 976 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 3: some guys improve, some guys don't. I mean, Zach Wilson 977 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:46,919 Speaker 3: came into this league with a boatload of talent. They're 978 00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:49,279 Speaker 3: all talented. I always say this, Who's going to get 979 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,360 Speaker 3: better from where they were in college? They all have 980 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:54,440 Speaker 3: to get better. Clearly CJ. Stroud is getting better. This 981 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 3: is not the same situation he had in college. You know, 982 00:42:57,040 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 3: we have the Ohio state line in front of you, 983 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:01,840 Speaker 3: and you're playing up a lot of opponents who are inferior. 984 00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 6: Let's be honest. 985 00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 3: You have those outstanding wide receivers, not the Texans receivers 986 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:08,759 Speaker 3: aren't good. But this is a different situation. You're dealing 987 00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:11,280 Speaker 3: with four out of your five linemen out. You're dealing 988 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 3: with a situation where you're getting acclimated to a new 989 00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:17,399 Speaker 3: system here for this team. 990 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:21,880 Speaker 6: And he's responding brilliantly. He has really upped his game. 991 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 3: And he continues to do so he's got an ethic 992 00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 3: to do it, and maybe certain guys don't have that. 993 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:29,759 Speaker 3: Maybe Zach Wilson doesn't have that. I don't know, but 994 00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:31,080 Speaker 3: you're not seeing the results anyway. 995 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's going to be a test 996 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:33,960 Speaker 1: in the next few weeks. I mean one of two 997 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 1: things is going to happen. One, he's going to continue 998 00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 1: on this streak of not playing well and he's going 999 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,120 Speaker 1: to continue to have to hear about it. Or two, 1000 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 1: it's going to galvanize the locker room and the teammates 1001 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,800 Speaker 1: and everyone that said he's our quarterback and we're sticking 1002 00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:49,000 Speaker 1: with him, which Robert Sola was very vocal about after 1003 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers went down with the injury. So I think 1004 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:53,799 Speaker 1: that you're gonna have to wait and see the next 1005 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:55,640 Speaker 1: week or two to see which direction is going to go. 1006 00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:57,439 Speaker 2: I still think it's early. I think there's a fourk 1007 00:43:57,480 --> 00:43:58,840 Speaker 2: in the road. Which way is it going to go? 1008 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:01,880 Speaker 1: Only time will tell, So we'll have to stay tuned 1009 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:03,759 Speaker 1: to see what happens with the Jet saga. I like, though, 1010 00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 1: where the Texans are with CJ. Straud, I say, we 1011 00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:08,440 Speaker 1: just continue on this Pathmark. 1012 00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:10,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I wish we beat the Colts didn't do 1013 00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:13,400 Speaker 3: it because the Colts beat the Ravens, right. 1014 00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:15,480 Speaker 6: They got them in overtime. 1015 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 3: Clothing man always yeah, a sheep and a wolf and 1016 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:21,760 Speaker 3: sheep the other way around. 1017 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 2: Oh, the Jags are the Jags of sheep and wolf's 1018 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:26,759 Speaker 2: clothing the Colts or a wolf in sheep. 1019 00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:27,279 Speaker 6: I don't know. 1020 00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:29,920 Speaker 3: I don't know how much longer this can go with Minshew. 1021 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:32,600 Speaker 3: You know everybody's got tape now full game. It's also 1022 00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 3: true the Ravens slowed them down for sure, but the 1023 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 3: Ravens have their own issues. They had a lot of 1024 00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:39,239 Speaker 3: guys out they couldn't execute in the crunch. All of that, 1025 00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 3: that was a very winnable game for Baltimore. Couldn't get 1026 00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 3: it done. Now the Rams will visit the Colts. Look, 1027 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,320 Speaker 3: it's I'm not scoreboard watching, but I always follow the 1028 00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 3: other AFC South teams. 1029 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,200 Speaker 2: You know that it's going to be exciting to watch. 1030 00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 1: And then we've got John Harris, who we're still living 1031 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,000 Speaker 1: up the good moments from Sunday's game against the Jags. 1032 00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:59,840 Speaker 1: He's got Texans matchup with a special segment on Ja 1033 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:02,440 Speaker 1: Watt because, as we all know, Ring of Honor ceremony 1034 00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:05,279 Speaker 1: on Sunday Legends home Coming presented by Ford, when the 1035 00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:09,080 Speaker 1: Texans hold host the Pittsburgh Steelers.
