39
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 1: I didn't think about that. The oldest and the youngest, Yeah,

40
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: it's true, and that is driven home. We talked about

41
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame last night, the packer of Hall

42
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 1: of Fame and how how great it is to come

00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: this stuff. Okay, during the broadcast, we know this team,

48
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 1: we've been watching them, and listen in find out what

49
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 1: we have to say about what's going on on the field,

50
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: the interpretation of what's going on in the field, and

51
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: how that leads into what might go on during the

52
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: regular season. Let's get the hot reads right now as

53
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: we kick off the program. All right, yesterday a lot

54
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 1: of stuff went down at practice, but it all began

55
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 1: with that bike, the Dream Drive with the Texans riding

56
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 1: kids bikes into the practice field area and Bill O'Brien

57
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 1: made national news because it was such a touching thing, really,

58
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 1: and Johnny tipped me off to it. I think we

59
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: were on the air when this happened, so we were

60
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: away from where it happened. But a boy named Raymond

61
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 1: special needs boy, and Bill O'Brien got together, and it

62
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: was really sweet to see the coach interact with him

63
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: and the family and all that is. You've probably seen

64
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 1: it already, but if you haven't, it's on all our

65
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:34,519
Speaker 1: social media channels Houston Texans on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, It's

66
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 1: all there. It's blowing up. People have carried it nationally

67
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: and it was really special. But here's Bill O'Brien talking

68
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: about that moment. That was cool. I mean, you know,

69
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: his name was Raymond, and he reminded me a lot

70
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 1: of my own son, and I think he's fourteen, and

71
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: it was just very cool. He was in He was

72
00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 1: in an awesome you know, bike slash wheels share type deal,

73
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 1: and I was worried that I was going to tip

74
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: it over, you know, and Amy wanted me to drive it,

75
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 1: and I wanted to do it, but I was like, man,

76
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if this isn't gonna My balance wasn't great.

77
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 1: But it worked out all right. It was fun to

78
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: do that. That was a cool moment for me and

79
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 1: Amy is Amy pal Sick, vice president of communications for

80
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: the Texans, and it all worked out and we got

81
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 1: it all on video and real special and Bill talked

82
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: about his son is about to turn eighteen and Jack,

83
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,479
Speaker 1: and I remember when Jack turned thirteen because that year

84
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien said that that was a very tough birthday

85
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 1: to achieve with his son's condition, and here he is

86
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 1: turning eighteen, So you know, every day is a miracle

87
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 1: for the O'Brien family, really, and it really was a

88
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 1: touching thing. There were a couple videos that were out there.

89
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 1: Obviously there's one where where Bill's meeting Raymond and which

90
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: is really cool, I thought, And I saw one at

91
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 1: the very end where they get to the they get

92
00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 1: to Zen Oneida. I'm trying to remember what yeah, yeah,

93
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 1: it is. He gets to the end of One Night end.

94
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 1: Then basically what happens is you get to the end

95
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 1: of the dream drive and then you walk across One

96
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,599
Speaker 1: Night and you're right there at clark Hinklefield where the

97
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 1: Texans started their practice and then they moved to over

98
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: Niske Field where they went against the Packers. So he

99
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 1: gets to the end, he gets off the bike and

100
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:20,279
Speaker 1: Raymond's mother just gives him the biggest huge and it

101
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 1: was it was one of those where you can you

102
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: could sort of and I have these moments sometimes when

103
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 1: I meet, when I meet parents that that are similar

104
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,479
Speaker 1: to to my son Jack, and you you kind of

105
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: have those moments where you connect and you know, one

106
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: of those guys this year and I haven't had a

107
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 1: chance to connect with the Mary Nagler, who covers the Packers,

108
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,280
Speaker 1: does a tremendous job. He's been covering to packers for

109
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,479
Speaker 1: a long long time and I haven't had a chance

110
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 1: of meeting. But Deepe talked to him and actually talked

111
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: to him about his daughter and my son Jack and all.

112
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 1: They're very similar. And so I know that probably meant

113
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: a lot to the mom, Raymond's mother, because of what

114
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 1: they've had to go through, what they've had to go

115
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 1: through with Raymond. And now here's you know, O'Brian, This

116
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: this man who understands exactly what this is all about.

117
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 1: It was really cool and it made me think because

118
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: last night was on Hard Knocks and I remember during

119
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: Hard Knocks, you know, Jack had a birthday and I

120
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 1: can't remember what you what it would be the math

121
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: on that, but it was fifteen fourteen, I guess, yeah,

122
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: And so they were celebrating a birthday and I remember

123
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 1: Ken Rogers, who is I believe he's executive producer for

124
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 1: Hard Knocks. Yeah, and he's on the afternoon show a lot. Yeah, yeah,

125
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 1: you hear, and he does. He did do a tremendous job,

126
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 1: and he's a great job of the NFL films. And

127
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 1: I remember before that episode him saying, this is the

128
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 1: most emotional episode we've ever had in Hard Knocks. It was,

129
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 1: and it really was. So it was really neat to

130
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 1: see that connection between Raymond and Coach and Coach and

131
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: his mother was really really cool. Yesterday. Yeah, and that's

132
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: the best that social media is, right. I mean, when

133
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 1: you have a moment like that, everybody's sharing it and

134
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 1: you have a lot of I'm not crying, your crying.

135
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: I saw one gift. It was just somebody cutting onions.

136
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: That's all it was. It was just too close up

137
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:03,040
Speaker 1: of onions being cut. So that was terrific. From yesterday, Okay,

138
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 1: there was a practice and there was another little skirmish

139
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 1: of sorts. Okay, Texans looked pretty good in the practice

140
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: for the most part, so they were pleased. And you know,

141
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien was asked about, you know, how you're gonna

142
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: make these cuts coming up and how you're evaluating the roster.

143
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: Already talked about the fifty three man roster after the practice.

144
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: You know, I don't think that, you know, there's certainly

145
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 1: certain guys that are on the football team, no doubt

146
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: about it. But then there's a lot of spots that

147
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 1: are up for grabs, you know. So it's a day

148
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 1: by day, game by game evaluation, and we spent a

149
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: lot of time talking about it. Watched a lot of

150
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 1: film yesterday. We'll watch a lot of film today and

151
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 1: we'll keep doing that and we'll try to make fair decisions.

152
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: It's not about you know, it's not about just an

153
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: all star fifty three. It's about the right fifty three.

154
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 1: So we'll keep working on that. All right, let's get

155
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 1: into it right now. Then, the top three matchups that

156
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 1: we're watching in the game on Thursday night, it's tomorrow night,

157
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 1: it's here at lambeau Field. What do you think, Johnny,

158
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 1: what are you looking at most? Or give me the

159
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 1: top three? It doesn't have to be in any order. Yeah,

160
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 1: I think the first one. And again I don't know

161
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: the length of time that all these players will play,

162
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 1: but it'll be just so take that for what it's worth.

163
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: But I think Matt clil Shantrell Henderson going against Zadarius

164
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: Smith and Rashaun Garry. That's It's been a matchup, you know,

165
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 1: throughout and I think I think both sides have had winners.

166
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: And Arius Smith's got a little shot on to Sean.

167
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: It was not a big It was not a big deal.

168
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: He kind of was trying to get out of the

169
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: way and Sean kind of moved into him. But Darius

170
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 1: Smith is all dude. I mean, he's a big guy.

171
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: So I think that's gonna be one of the matchups

172
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,839
Speaker 1: to tackles for the Texans against those two guys in

173
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: the outside. I don't know how long Davant the Adams

174
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: will play, but I'm anxious to see him. And I

175
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,200
Speaker 1: haven't watched as as much as I didn't watch as

176
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: much defense yesterday, but Day one I really felt like

177
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: the Texans did a pretty good job staying with Davanta Adams,

178
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 1: so Vanta Adams against Bradley Roby, Adams against Jonathan Joseph.

179
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: We want to see where that secondary is. I mean,

180
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: I think that's a it's a good test because Adams

181
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,439
Speaker 1: is such a good route runner and gets separation from

182
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: pretty much everybody so I would say that's probably probably

183
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 1: the second one. And then I want to see I

184
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: want to see the defensive front Reader Blackson against the

185
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 1: Packers and see if the Packers can find a way

186
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: to move them at all. Look, the Packers running back

187
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 1: situation is not great. It's not great at all. I mean,

188
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 1: somebody put it on Twitter the last night. They just

189
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,200
Speaker 1: signed Keith Ford or claimed Keith Ford on Waivers who

190
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 1: was waived by the Colts when the Colts picked up

191
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: Deante Foreman who was waived by the Texans. So that's

192
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: how all three teams are connected. But Ford just got

193
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: here literally yesterday, and I don't know how much he

194
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 1: might because they don't have a lot of a lot

195
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,959
Speaker 1: of depth really at that spot because Aaron Jones and

196
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams are still not fully healthy and one of

197
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 1: their back is banged up, so you're gonna see Dexter

198
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 1: Williams out of Notre Dame for a while. So I

199
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 1: think put the backs aside. I want to see the

200
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 1: Packers if the Packers can move Reader and Blackson, because

201
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,079
Speaker 1: they haven't been able to for the first two days. Now.

202
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:09,959
Speaker 1: I don't know if DJ will play he got he

203
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 1: got a little dinged at the end of the Day one,

204
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 1: but even with Blackson and Dunny in there, they still

205
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 1: weren't able to move the football against them running the ball.

206
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 1: So I want to see if the Packers are able

207
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 1: to move them, if they make any kind of game adjustments.

208
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 1: I don't know you do that in the preseason too much.

209
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,439
Speaker 1: But the Packers offensive line is not a big one.

210
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: It's one that's gonna be based on quickness and agility,

211
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: run his own scheme. They're just not there, not like

212
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: the Texans, So I want I definitely want to see that,

213
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 1: and I'll throw one in there at the end. I

214
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,319
Speaker 1: want to see the rookie guards, you know, Titus and

215
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 1: Max if they start. They were with the first group

216
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 1: I think for both days, so I want to see

217
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: what they do. The Packers have got some stout dudes

218
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: on the inside. I mean, Kenny Clark is as strong

219
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 1: as it gets. He is a I've seen him do

220
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 1: things he's like he's like Geno Atkins. He's like the

221
00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,080
Speaker 1: Packers version of Geno Atkins. But he's just strong as

222
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: an ox. So I want to see those guys handle

223
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: that want to see him handle in the pass game.

224
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 1: One on one pass rush yesterday, the two rookies at

225
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 1: guard did not do a great job, so they've got

226
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:11,560
Speaker 1: to clean that up. Now they got the team, they

227
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 1: did a little bit better, but one on ones they

228
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 1: they got beat. It wasn't great. But I want to

229
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:18,959
Speaker 1: see how those guards match up against some of the

230
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 1: Packers interior defenders, especially Montravius Adams, Dean Lowry and Kenny Clark.

231
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: We expect to see Watson a series at the most,

232
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 1: I think it right. So what about whoever the starting

233
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 1: line is, what about them? We expect to see them

234
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 1: in a series or two or three. I don't know

235
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 1: what we're gonna get, but I would think that he

236
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,439
Speaker 1: wants to get at least ten twelve plays with whatever

237
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: he starts with tomorrow night. I think it'll maybe be players.

238
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 1: I think if he gets a good let's say he

239
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 1: gets a good series of seven eight plays with Dashawan

240
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: and at first line, I think Khalil will come out.

241
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 1: I think Titus might bump over to left tackle. Then

242
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: they'll put Zack Fulton in the game, you know, or

243
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 1: if Zach starts, then they'll put you know, Shout Sharping

244
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 1: in the game. I think they'll move a couple of

245
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,199
Speaker 1: guys around, but like Khalil will come out. What about Henderson,

246
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 1: maybe him too, and then maybe Henderson comes out, Maybe

247
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: he stays a little bit longer and he plays with Titus,

248
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,719
Speaker 1: and then Henderson comes out. Maybe Titus comes out. They

249
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:18,959
Speaker 1: put Julian in, they put Rogert Johnson, and those guys

250
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 1: start getting But mans will have to play a half

251
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:25,079
Speaker 1: because Martin's unavailable. Man's well, maybe you might. You might

252
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 1: could go Man's at center, you go Fulton at center.

253
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,319
Speaker 1: Then obviously maybe they have a look at that. Shaquier

254
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 1: is gonna go, and Shakier is gonna play a lot

255
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:34,559
Speaker 1: of this game. Yeah, he's gonna play a lot. And

256
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: you've never heard of him, folks, but he's a center

257
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: who's been getting some action with the twos and the three.

258
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 1: You'll hear Bom later. We'll talk about him when we

259
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 1: get to our ninety man roster down. Oh okay, John

260
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 1: Harris is gonna break down every player on the roster

261
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,560
Speaker 1: at nine o'clock. You have to hear this. It is

262
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 1: going to be fast, furious, only eight seconds per player.

263
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,600
Speaker 1: I guess you could go like twelve seconds with some yeah,

264
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 1: and four with others because when you're asking about DeAndre

265
00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 1: Hopkins will be like the best of the game next, Yeah, exactly.

266
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 1: We've talked about him a lot. You know, they're familiar

267
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: with his work, they've seen him operate, so they're good

268
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: with that. I'll give you a couple here. What about

269
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,080
Speaker 1: punt returner. I want to see whatever they do there.

270
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 1: And let me ask you this. Do you expect to

271
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,679
Speaker 1: see them tempt the return on kickoffs because they want

272
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 1: to look at everybody special teams in coverage. Or do

273
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:22,719
Speaker 1: you kick it out of the back because you think

274
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 1: I don't want to get people hurt, or I gotta

275
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: see how they evaluate that. I think as a game

276
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: goes on, you'll certainly see more returns. Well, Aaron Rodgers

277
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 1: will have you kick it out of the back of

278
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:33,719
Speaker 1: the end zone, so you don't have kickoffs at all,

279
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 1: according to him. So I think you'll kick it to

280
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:38,960
Speaker 1: the one. I think the Texans will kick it to

281
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 1: the one. I think they want to see what they

282
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,719
Speaker 1: have with these special teams guys, for sure, I think

283
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: the absolutely yes, Look, you don't want to get anybody hurt.

284
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: I mean, but how do you know what you got right?

285
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: So exactly check it out. Look, the inevitability of football

286
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,079
Speaker 1: is that it's a violent sport. Whether you're practicing or

287
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 1: whether you're playing the game, it's a violent sport. Don't

288
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,120
Speaker 1: like it, don't play it. I'll tell you what. Last

289
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 1: year in the preseason, whatever they had, they didn't like

290
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 1: it enough, and they picked up guys like Buddy holl

291
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: and AJ Moore because they said, we got to get

292
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 1: better there, and they did get better there. So they

293
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 1: evaluated what was going on around the league and made

294
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 1: that determination. And we'll see if they feel like they

295
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 1: need to do that again. You know, John mentioned DJ Dunney,

296
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 1: Brandon Dunn, who's a player you really you really need

297
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 1: to know more about. I mean, this guy has started

298
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 1: a lot of games, ten games last year during the

299
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 1: eleven and five campaign, and the ones he didn't start

300
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: were likely while they were opening in Nickel or something

301
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 1: because of situational and subs and whatever who the offense

302
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 1: was presenting to them. So let's get to know Brandon

303
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 1: Dunn a little bit much better. Actually, in the next segment,

304
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: then John McClane's going to join us. Got to hear

305
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 1: what the general has to say about what he's seen

306

323
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 1: of keep my mind it off of a little bit

324
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 1: seeing them for the first time in a couple of years.

325
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: So that'll be fun thing to the day of the

326
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 1: game when you have to do something like that. The

327
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 1: day of the game. It's like, I know, I don't.

328
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 1: I do not like to do anything to day of

329
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 1: a game. I don't care when we're playing. I do

330
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 1: not when we play it. When we play an I

331
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: came at home, we play a night came at home.

332
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 1: I get into I get in there like ten thirty

333
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,000
Speaker 1: or eleven, and just I'd rather just sit in there

334
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: and watch games going on and just be there and

335
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 1: be ready. If it's an away game and we're playing

336
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 1: a night game, usually there's you know, where we're staying.

337
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 1: There's somewhere downtown, somewhere to walk. I'll just walk for hours.

338
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 1: I'll just walk around Cescity, you know, go wherever. I

339
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: mean Baltimore a couple of years ago, that Monday night game,

340
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 1: because last year all the primetime games that are home Baltimore,

341
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 1: I just walked. I did radio thing with the guy's

342
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 1: morning and then I just walked. And it was beautiful.

343
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: It was gorgeous, and I probably had one point ran

344
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 1: into deep shopping somewhere, of course, so we shopped together

345
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 1: for a little bit, I'm sure. And then at that

346
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 1: time time you get ready to get a long run in,

347
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 1: get shower, get ready. It's time to go, well, their

348
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 1: routine today will be a walkthrough and then the meetings

349
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 1: tomorrow and the night game thing. Look, they play when

350
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:49,400
Speaker 1: they play right, I mean, you want to play at

351
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: night a lot. That means you're good that term prime

352
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 1: time a lot you want to be on at night

353
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,440
Speaker 1: And it's a routine disruptor. I get it. But the

354
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 1: good team survived this year after you. You know, it's

355
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 1: funny because I remember picking up a couple of primetime

356
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:05,119
Speaker 1: games a few years ago, and maybe more than a couple.

357
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 1: I remember thinking, jeez, this is such a different routine.

358
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 1: And in twenty eleven, when the Texans had the big

359
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,200
Speaker 1: breakthrough season, getting to the postseason for the first time,

360
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 1: I think every game virtually was a noon start, you know,

361
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,240
Speaker 1: it felt like that, and there was no primetime stuff

362
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,199
Speaker 1: except for the requisite Thursday night or and that was

363
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:27,160
Speaker 1: against the Colts on the road. So the next year

364
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 1: you get some primetime games, and I thought, man, the

365
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,080
Speaker 1: good teams go through this every year. They go through

366
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,360
Speaker 1: that routine disruption Monday night. Where are you at after

367
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 1: the Monday night game? Are you on the road at home?

368
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 1: Where are you? And you just got to learn to

369
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,440
Speaker 1: deal with that. If you're a good team, and the Steelers,

370
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 1: the Patriots, those teams do it well. All right, Let's

371
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 1: get to this. Brandon Dunn does his job very well

372
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 1: playing that D line. Really interesting. Guy Drew Doherty has

373
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: a dozen questions for him. Thank you so much. We've

374
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:55,640
Speaker 1: got Brandon Dunne defensive lineman aka DJ Dunney. So let's

375
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 1: start with the music. How has the music been here

376
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 1: in Green Bay at practice? Has this been? Okay? Way

377
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 1: different from ours? But you know, they play still some

378
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,119
Speaker 1: good hits here. They switch it up obviously, you know,

379
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 1: in green Bay's family origents, so they gotta keep it clearing.

380
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 1: It is like in Houston tool But we've been a

381
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 1: little bit, you know. But other than that, it's been good.

382
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:13,880
Speaker 1: It's been good. It's been I haven't been worrying about

383
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 1: the music career. I actually been worrying about the work.

384
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 1: So right, and how has the work gone? Work's been good.

385
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,359
Speaker 1: I've got to good quality work gets some different opponent,

386
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: different scheme wise, so we gotta switch up our technique.

387
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 1: I'm just speaking up up front, you know. But other

388
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 1: than that, man good Weather, I think that's the plus.

389
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:29,719
Speaker 1: We're not in the sign on no more. We are

390
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 1: here in good weather up north, so it's been it's

391
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,479
Speaker 1: been good. Um, no complaints, glad we got to come

392
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:35,919
Speaker 1: and we can't and got to work. What do you

393
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 1: do to cool off after practice in Houston? Coach up,

394
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,159
Speaker 1: coach up, and literally sit on your locker and and

395
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 1: and get your life back together. It's all it's sitting

396
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,679
Speaker 1: your locker for about fifteen minutes, get your life back together,

397
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 1: get you something to drink, and they gonna hop in

398
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 1: the coach up. What are the ways you get your

399
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:54,280
Speaker 1: life back together? Sit about and just think and just

400
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: you know, bring up memories before practice, because when we're

401
00:18:58,320 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 1: down there in Houston and the only thing you think

402
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 1: about this practice and you mentally dream even like well

403
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 1: let me come back to regular life for a little

404
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,479
Speaker 1: bit in my locker, so you start thinking about other

405
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 1: stuff like man, I'm gonna go what I'm want for lunch,

406
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,679
Speaker 1: you know, or or I gotta I gotta fix that

407
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 1: play I messed up on doing practice. You just gotta

408
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,880
Speaker 1: get your life back together. Because you can ask anybody

409
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 1: else on this team then know exactly what I'm talking about.

410
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 1: So it's been a little bit quicker as far as

411
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 1: getting your life back together up here has a nut. Yeah,

412
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,160
Speaker 1: it's been a light with it. It's been a lot quicker.

413
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,360
Speaker 1: It's actually, you know, it's been no mental talks. It's

414
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 1: been no like who it's hot here, you know, don't

415
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 1: more about the heat. There's been none of those talks here.

416
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,119
Speaker 1: It's been all it's like, you know, how many periods

417
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 1: we got? You know, we would be like you only

418
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,639
Speaker 1: got four. I'd be like, that's it because you know

419
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 1: it's good weather period and it's good, and it's good.

420
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,199
Speaker 1: You just want to compete good competition around here. So

421
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,080
Speaker 1: the weather Perer, it's a it's a little bit of

422
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 1: added you know. You know, I'd be a fool to

423
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 1: say if it wasn't. Yeah, you're d J Johnny because

424
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 1: you have the ox cord in the locker room, you

425
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:52,879
Speaker 1: run the hits. You have a little bit of been

426
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,440
Speaker 1: put from de Shaun Watson. So let's do this. Give

427
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,359
Speaker 1: me two or three tracks to help get the team

428
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 1: pumped up. Okay, Hey, okay, that's a good one. I'm

429
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:05,359
Speaker 1: going I'm going all uncut right now, King Vaughan and

430
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 1: Little Dirk. That's a good one. Crazy story two point zero.

431
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 1: I like little Baby Freestyle, Little Baby Freestyle, March Matteness,

432
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 1: My Future. You know those three songs right there. They

433
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,399
Speaker 1: can get any situation going two or three songs to

434
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 1: calm everybody down. Teddy Pendergrass, TKO and We're gonna go

435
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,640
Speaker 1: with Ozzy Brothers in between the sheets. That's the Thursday

436
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,439
Speaker 1: throw back, Thursday cool down situation. So what's a Friday

437
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 1: song too? A Friday? You know, a Friday. It's a

438
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:33,639
Speaker 1: little bit of a fast pace, so it'd be like

439
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:37,639
Speaker 1: some Friday it's it's it's a mixture of old school

440
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,399
Speaker 1: and it's a mixture of game Day. So you can

441
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 1: get the same couple of songs I just said, sprinkling

442
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 1: in with some some different ones. One I like playing

443
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 1: it is Kevin Gates Great Man and Friday. I don't

444
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,199
Speaker 1: know why I like playing on Friday. Really, I like

445
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,480
Speaker 1: playing on Friday and Sundays. But other than that, it's

446
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 1: really a mixture. You can you put your music on

447
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 1: this head sheffle. What are some songs that will get

448
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 1: you banned for life if somebody tries to sneak in

449
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,120
Speaker 1: and play them, because I know you've had the bands

450
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,480
Speaker 1: for people for life. Yeah, you can't play no Molly Cyrus,

451
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 1: that's not and that's not. That's not the goal. You know,

452
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,400
Speaker 1: shout out to Molly, But that's not, that's not. That's

453
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,119
Speaker 1: not locker room. But no party in the USA, No

454
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 1: party in the USA, No ed sharing. It's pretty straightforward,

455
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,480
Speaker 1: and you know it's all about it's all war music.

456
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:17,880
Speaker 1: If it's not war music, it's time to it's time

457
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 1: to lay down music. It's it's a decompressed situation. Ain't

458
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,399
Speaker 1: no in between. It's either you, it's either we were

459
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 1: wrapped up? Are we just cooled down? What would final question?

460
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:30,719

Speaker 1: right now if you found out where you were, what

Speaker 1: I told you you need to know Brandon done. That

485
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,919
Speaker 1: is awesome. And Teddy Pendergrass is awesome too. I like

486
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 1: that they play some Teddy. I know that Ed Sheering's

487
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,640
Speaker 1: probably been loved by a lot of people out there,

488
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 1: but in the locker room, no Ed Sheeron, apparently no

489
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:38,360
Speaker 1: Ed Sheering and no Miley Cyrus hating on those two.

490
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,399
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what I saw post malone on. It

491
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,119
Speaker 1: was I think it was Jimmy Fallon or maybe it

492
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:44,679
Speaker 1: was it. It was because I was bouncing back and

493
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,160
Speaker 1: forth between Fallon and Tamba. I never watched those shows.

494
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 1: I mean, and post Malone is interesting, Let's just put

495
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 1: it that way. No, I like his stuff. I like

496
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,240
Speaker 1: his stuff, I really do. Doesn't Landry know him? Does

497
00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 1: he really? I think he does. He was wearing a

498
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,679
Speaker 1: I could be alone, was knotted up. I was not

499
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 1: expecting that. Yeah, I didn't see the hold. We're gonna

500
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,720
Speaker 1: ask him that? Ye dirty? Okay, But I'm I'm into

501
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: some Luther Vandross, of course. And I can sing just

502
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 1: like Luther Vandross in my mind. Actually in my brain,

503
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: I can, but when I try to actually do it,

504
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 1: it doesn't come out right. It's it's very different. I

505
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 1: mean that abletely different. I sound like ed Shearon, But

506
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 1: I guess I can't sing the locker room, so I won't,

507
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:33,679
Speaker 1: isn't is it? Doney great? Though I go on tour together.

508
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 1: Those two guys, I'm they're fantastic. I mean they're They're

509
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: an absolute riot with one another. And what I love

510
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: about them is they truly understand on the field off

511
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 1: the field. When they go on the field, it is

512
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: business in his business time. But all of a sudden

513
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,200
Speaker 1: you get them off the field, they understand we're off

514
00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 1: the field, like they're honestly different guys, but they'll still

515
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 1: need to each other. But on the field they'll talk trash.

516
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 1: They're playing hard, they're competing their guts out. They get

517
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 1: off the field, it's, you know, they're just I want

518
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:12,640
Speaker 1: to say laid back guys, but they're kind of laid

519
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 1: back guys. They just that's the way they are. But

520
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 1: they're really really funny and really good around each other.

521
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 1: The defensive line room is a fun room. Oh it's

522
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:24,160
Speaker 1: a great group. It's I've said it before. This defensive

523
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,639
Speaker 1: line is as close as a lot of team's offensive lines,

524
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 1: you know, a lot, and the offensive line, you know,

525
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:34,240
Speaker 1: you want them to kind of be the foundation of

526
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 1: the team and hopefully they get there here. But I

527
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 1: think the defensive line can make that claim here because

528
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 1: they're that tight and they're that good. All right. John

529
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,680
Speaker 1: McClain is so good, And he's next and his thoughts

530
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,200
Speaker 1: on the week of practice, his top three things he's

531
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,159
Speaker 1: looking out for tomorrow night when the Texans take on

532
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers here at lambeau Field. We are

533
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,399
Speaker 1: inside the building right now bringing you this show, and

534
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 1: you don't want to miss. At nine o'clock, set the appointment.

535
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 1: John Harris evaluates every position on the roster, eight seconds

536
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 1: per player. It's gonna be rapid fire, it's gonna be fun.

537
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:09,199
Speaker 1: It's Texans Training Camp Live. This is Jonathan Joseph and

538
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:14,400
Speaker 1: you're listening to the the Texans Radio. I'm winning. Merciless don't

539
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 1: get blindsided like some of the quarterbacks I face. But

540
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,359
Speaker 1: his latest news and exclusive interviews. Download the Houston Texans

541
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 1: Mobile apt listen to Texans Radio. Whitney Merciless is one

542
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 1: of those guys who wonder how much he's gonna play

543
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 1: tomorrow night. But I think the defensive front, they're gonna

544
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,360
Speaker 1: get a series, maybe two, depending on how it goes.

545
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,399
Speaker 1: If you get a three and out, that obviously affects

546
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,440
Speaker 1: the play count, and then maybe you come back out,

547
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,919
Speaker 1: maybe you dump Mark Vandamer and John Harris with you.

548
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:45,640
Speaker 1: Inside the atrium. Here lambeau Field underneath the gigantic Lombardi

549
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,159
Speaker 1: Trophy that's about four stories tall. And I tweeted that

550
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 1: out and it was a sideways video. I didn't know

551
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 1: what's gonna come out that way, but I left it

552
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 1: so you can go check that out. I don't. I'm

553
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 1: not saying it's fun to watch, but I don't think this.

554
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 1: But Jonesy's in it, so I had to leave it

555
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 1: up there. It's the only airtime the guy gets. I know,

556
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 1: it's unfortunate because Jonie did such a great job. I

557
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 1: don't think this is the one that Gronkowski dented, by

558
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 1: the way, No, no, this is this is huge, all right.

559
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,399
Speaker 1: John McClain joins us right now the general front the

560
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,719
Speaker 1: Houston Chronicle. Good morning, Johnny, Good morning guys. How are

561
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 1: you good? As your microphone just blew us out a

562
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 1: little bit. But that's okay, it's not your fault. What

563
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 1: I can't hear anything? All right? So John, give me

564
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:28,160
Speaker 1: top three things, not in order necessarily that you're looking

565
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:32,360
Speaker 1: for tomorrow night. Toddis Howard Max sharping and playing their

566
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:37,200
Speaker 1: first games at guard, seeing how they do. The young

567
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 1: cornerbacks like Lonnie Johnson Junior and Xavier Crawford, and then

568
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 1: some undrafted receivers competing with Vincent Smith for the last

569
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 1: receiver job. I assumed down to Carter will be back

570
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:59,400
Speaker 1: next week and that he would be the primary backup

571
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 1: inside to Kiki Qt. But um, but they Bill talked

572
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 1: about yesterday when he asked about the last receivers body,

573
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: he said, we're talking about after the first three. Vincent

574
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 1: Smith should have an advantage because he was here last year.

575
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 1: He had that big touchdown catch at Philadelphia. He's going

576
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 1: into his second season. He seems to be should be

577
00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:27,240
Speaker 1: a lot more comfortable than he was at this time

578
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,399
Speaker 1: last year when his head had to be spinning. It

579
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 1: was amazing he made the team considering where he came

580
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: from Limestone College and they couldn't afford to let him

581
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:43,679
Speaker 1: go and get him. And so I think now I

582
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:47,679
Speaker 1: believe that watching the wide receivers, the backup, watching the

583
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 1: young corners and the young offensive lineman. Of the three things,

584
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 1: I'm the most interested in, John, how many receivers that

585
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:55,879
Speaker 1: don't make the team you think make other squads just

586
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,200
Speaker 1: based on what you've seen so far in practice. I

587
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 1: got at least two. At least two are gonna make

588
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 1: other teams. I don't know, because I think receivers at

589
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,239
Speaker 1: the bottom of roster. Diamond does and everybody's got him.

590
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 1: So I think guy like Tyron Johnson, if he doesn't

591
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,439
Speaker 1: make it, that he would be back. He would be

592
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,399
Speaker 1: on the practice squad. I'd be surprised if Jester wi

593
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,760
Speaker 1: is on it for a second year when you got

594
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 1: a guy like Johnson, when you got Johnny Dixon, and

595
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:27,679
Speaker 1: I think those guys are more likely added for the

596
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 1: practice squad. Who are the two you think it goes

597
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 1: somewhere else? Well, I think Stephen Mitchell, if he doesn't

598
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,200
Speaker 1: make it as a great chance to end up somewhere else.

599
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,640
Speaker 1: I don't know that you can get rid of him. Yeah,

600
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 1: really don't. I mean, but I don't. Do you have

601
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 1: the spots? I mean DeAndre Carter. John just mentioned him,

602
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:43,240
Speaker 1: And if you think he's coming back next week, that's

603
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 1: good for him. He's got to come back and show

604
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 1: out as a receiver. Why he could return. I think

605
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 1: this is the biggest thing. And Bill, this is from

606
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 1: the transcript Chess State and John you mentioned this when

607
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 1: he was When Bill was asked about the fifth receiver spot,

608
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 1: he said, what about the fourth? Who's the fourth? I

609
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,240
Speaker 1: don't know? He said. We've been on some fifty three

610
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 1: man rosters where we've kept three, Somewhere we've kept four,

611
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 1: somewhere we've kept six. Depends on special teams. It depends

612
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 1: on knowledge of assignments. Production being able to get open

613
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 1: and catch the ball. How many do you think they

614
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 1: end up keeping five? I don't see six, But Jordan

615
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 1: Nakins can be another receiver since he's doing it as

616
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 1: well as h back bring a little bit of everything.

617
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 1: Unless that last receiver is a better special teams player

618
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 1: than Buddy Howe or Johnson bad and Moseley, the guys

619
00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 1: who are on this team just for special teams, and

620
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 1: you don't see the last receiver Unlessie would be great

621
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 1: if he was a return guy, but he's not, So

622
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,000
Speaker 1: they're gonna have a tough cut there. Well, there's two

623
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 1: things here. There's opening day roster, opening day fifty three,

624
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 1: if you will, and then there's the fifty three right

625
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 1: after the fourth preseason game, because I think I could

626
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 1: see six on that fifty three. And then, oh, here's

627
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 1: a corner we want to pick up, and you're gonna

628
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:52,920
Speaker 1: cut that last receiver. Try to get them back at

629
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 1: the practice squad, and then go ahead and take that

630
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 1: corner that you want off waivers. That's a huge thing

631
00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 1: because I think when we all talk about the fifty

632
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 1: three man cut down, fifty three man cut down, it

633
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 1: really turns out to be a fifty or fifty one

634
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,240
Speaker 1: man cut down because the Texans over the last how

635
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: many years have always come up with a couple of

636
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 1: waiver claims at a at a minimum. I mean last

637
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 1: year was three of him. It was Jamerson, it was

638
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 1: Buddy Howell, and it was a J. Moore. I think

639
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 1: that was it right, it was three, So you're right,

640
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 1: I do. I'm with John. I think the numbers five

641
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 1: because John, what do you do with tight end? Because

642
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 1: of any group, any group that I'm talking Packers and

643
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:31,160
Speaker 1: Texans that look just tremendous due to the last two days,

644
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 1: that's the tight ends. Do you think they will carry

645
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 1: four tight ends? I don't even because it's a luxury

646
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 1: and they I just don't see it. Even though Jordan

647
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 1: Nakins does multiple things and Darren Bells look good. I

648
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 1: tell you, Darell Adams, he's looked good exactly. I've never

649
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 1: paid the intention to him. But every time I look up,

650
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 1: he's making a play and could he be a guy

651
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 1: for the practice squad? But I don't. It's that is

652
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 1: and Bill mentioned is yesterday. That is going to be

653
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 1: tough decisions at tight end. Now if those guys play

654
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 1: there on the roster. They're not gonna cut a fourth

655
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 1: tight end to keep a sixth receiver who's not as

656
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 1: good as that tight end. So you can force them

657
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 1: to keep you on the roster. John, and I have

658
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 1: a little gentleman's bet going about the tight end position.

659
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 1: We'll see how what works out. You've been saying four

660
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,400
Speaker 1: all along. Well, I'm not gonna stand on a cliff

661
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: for it. Wait, that's you mean? I mean General John,

662
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,800
Speaker 1: not me. I think four making No. Oh yeah, John McClay.

663
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 1: I've been saying, I think there's a good shot. I

664
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 1: just the last point you made, John, I think is

665
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 1: maybe the most important one, and that is, let's just

666
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 1: say the two Jordans in Collie. I mean you're keeping

667
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 1: a third, You're keeping the rookie ted end. Obviously, I

668
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 1: don't know what you tell Darren Fells. I mean, because

669
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 1: what Darren Fells may not give you on special teams

670
00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 1: per se, he gives you as a blocker, gives you

671
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,680
Speaker 1: as a pass protector, but he also gives you something

672
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 1: in leadership because if you're if you have two second

673
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 1: year tight ends and a rookie tight end, and I've

674
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 1: heard Wade Smith talk about this, we talked about the

675
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 1: offensive line, and I remember saying, well, you know, you

676
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,160
Speaker 1: keep these guys and he's like John, but who's the

677
00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 1: veteran in the room that tells them how to do things?

678
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 1: And I was like, Yeah, that's a good point. I've

679
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 1: kind of applied that throughout. So I mean, I just

680
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 1: don't I mean, I feel like there are nine guys coming.

681
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 1: And you talked about Jorge Nakins. You almost consider him

682
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 1: the sixth receiver because of how they use him. I

683
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 1: think there'll be nine pass catchers. I think Stephen Mitchell

684
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: has been phenomenal and I think he's really making a

685
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 1: bid to be one of the guys. Like you watch

686
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 1: him at practice and you go, that guy needs to

687
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:39,720
Speaker 1: be on the team somewhere. And I just don't know

688
00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:41,479
Speaker 1: how you fit him all how you fit them all in,

689
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 1: which is really kind of a nice problem to have. Well,

690
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 1: it was the time when they did not have problems

691
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 1: like that, correct. It was like they had Andre Johnson

692
00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 1: and Kevin Walter and all right, who else we got?

693
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:56,280
Speaker 1: Got Jakobe Job Jacoby Jones is gonna do something. But

694
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 1: beyond that, John, you're talking about Titus and you talked

695
00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 1: about Max the rookie. How much do you think they

696
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 1: end up playing on Thursday Night? I would think they

697
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 1: would play more than the other first teamers. I don't

698
00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 1: see Khalil playing much. Sean Trelle Henderson, either Greg Manz

699
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 1: and Zach Fulton and Sainil Kellamente. They can all play center.

700
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,240
Speaker 1: But I would think you're not gonna put them out

701
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 1: there for one series and you need to see them.

702
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 1: I would think for at least a quarter in this game,

703
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:25,280
Speaker 1: depending on how much they're on the field. Well, we'll see.

704
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,760
Speaker 1: This is gonna be interesting, John, these practices. What have

705
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: you've gotten out of seeing the Texans and the Packers

706
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 1: do business the last couple of days. I wrote a

707
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:38,280
Speaker 1: column today about the benefits of the defensive backs and

708
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 1: the young defensive backs, especially going against Rogers in practice

709
00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 1: because and watching him as well. You know, the backups

710
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 1: don't go against him, but they watch him. And considering

711
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 1: the seven quarterbacks that they faced the first seven weeks,

712
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 1: this was good for them. This is what a joint

713
00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 1: practice is for. They're working on every situation that'll come

714
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 1: up in a game. And I thought it was interesting.

715
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 1: I was standing down there yesterday watching the DBS because

716
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 1: of what I was writing. And I know, and I've

717
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:12,280
Speaker 1: noticed this two days in a row. Rogers gets the ball.

718
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,239
Speaker 1: He doesn't have an immediate throw and a completion. A

719
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 1: lot of times he had to hold it, hold it, pop, pop,

720
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 1: and take off and throw at the last instant. But

721
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 1: and we talked about what was at the coverage. Could

722
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,800
Speaker 1: the Packers' receivers not be very good beyond DeVante Adams

723
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 1: and Jimmy Graham Or is it Rogers thinking too much

724
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:36,480
Speaker 1: about a new offense. I can't imagine Matt Lafour would

725
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:40,800
Speaker 1: change much about what Aaron Rodgers does. And their offense

726
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,680
Speaker 1: just didn't look real smooth and the text and struggle

727
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,920
Speaker 1: at times too. But I just thought Rogers would come

728
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 1: out here, get the ball, boom, He'd start rifling passes

729
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:52,800
Speaker 1: and completing them. And then again, maybe he was trying

730
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,919
Speaker 1: to fool people on tape. What do you think John

731
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:58,239
Speaker 1: about what he said? Afterwards? One asked about joint practices.

732
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:00,960
Speaker 1: He said, I'm glad it's over so we can get

733
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:02,720
Speaker 1: on to the rest of the training camp. I wouldn't

734
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,360
Speaker 1: mind if they didn't do it for another fourteen years.

735
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:09,399
Speaker 1: The Packers hadn't been part of a joint practice since

736
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 1: two thousand and five, which is all the way back

737
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:13,640
Speaker 1: when Aaron Rodgers was a rookie. Would you think about it?

738
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,880
Speaker 1: I checked on that. That was because Ted Thompson and

739
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 1: former general manager, was not a fan of joint practices,

740
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 1: and Rogers brought up special teams when he was complaining

741
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 1: about him think that somebody could get hurt on kickoff coverage. Yep,

742
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: But he also mentioned about he's sure wouldn't want to

743
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:34,440
Speaker 1: go on the road. Texans players like coming up here,

744
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 1: not just for the wedding, but I many wedding, the

745
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 1: weather and lambeau Field, and it was a great setup

746
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,960
Speaker 1: across the street over to Don Hudson Center with the

747
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,839
Speaker 1: two fields on each side, and I think it worked

748
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,239
Speaker 1: out great. I talked to La Flora yesterday. He was

749
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:50,719
Speaker 1: happy with it. Of course, we all talked to Bill O'Brien.

750
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 1: He was happy about it, and they got two more

751
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,839
Speaker 1: coming up next week with Detroit and Detroit right now

752
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,719
Speaker 1: was having joint practices with New England. A lot of

753
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 1: teams do it. In fact, Aaron Rodgers the first prominent

754
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 1: player I've ever heard come out and say didn't like him.

755
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:09,439
Speaker 1: Most players like them, and they don't like preseason games, right,

756
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 1: just to get ready, you have to figure out a

757
00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 1: way to get ready. And Lafleur said privately that he

758
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 1: liked them, that he wants to do it again. And

759
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:20,480
Speaker 1: he said, yeah, he understands that taking camp away from

760
00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:23,120
Speaker 1: here would be big because the people love it here

761
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 1: and it's such a tradition. They don't go away. But

762
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:30,120
Speaker 1: here's the thing, after what we experienced coming up here,

763
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:33,440
Speaker 1: what team would not want to come up to Green Bay? Yeah,

764
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:35,520
Speaker 1: if for a few days and check out the history

765
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,399
Speaker 1: of the game, play a preseason game, what team would

766
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 1: not want to come up here? I mean, I want

767
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 1: to come back up here next year. John, how old

768
00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 1: is the Hall of Fame? Because this is sixty three

769
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 1: was when the first class was inducted after it was built.

770
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:53,239
Speaker 1: This wouldn't have noticed yesterday. I saw the spot at

771
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:56,360
Speaker 1: a train station where the Packers left for their first

772
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:59,840
Speaker 1: road trip in nineteen nineteen before the NFL was like

773
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:05,080
Speaker 1: actually formed two years later. And that's you don't get

774
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,720
Speaker 1: that kind of history anywhere else. No, you don't. And

775
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,840
Speaker 1: this place is older than the Hall of Fame. John

776
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 1: and I explored the Packer Hall of Fame yesterday it

777
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:17,320
Speaker 1: was phenomenal. I mean, it really was impressive to see

778
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:19,440
Speaker 1: all the history and the fact that the Packers and

779
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 1: I think we talked about this last night. I don't

780
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,839
Speaker 1: want to be redundant, but the Packers first games were

781
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 1: against small towns were seen and that was actually one

782
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,799
Speaker 1: of the bigger cities they played. This is in the

783
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 1: nineteen nineteen season and they played little towns in the

784
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 1: upper Upper Peninsula of Michigan and northern Wisconsin, and that

785
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,440
Speaker 1: was I mean, that's how this thing got started, this

786
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:42,920
Speaker 1: Packers franchise. And look at them today, look at them

787
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:46,399
Speaker 1: part of thirty two teams in this massive league. It's

788
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:51,080
Speaker 1: really interesting to follow the lineage. I walked around the

789
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:53,920
Speaker 1: stadium the outside on the street, just looking at all

790
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:56,879
Speaker 1: the sides of it, and I've always been amazing since

791
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,040
Speaker 1: I came here for the first time forty years ago,

792
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:02,040
Speaker 1: that it was a lot smaller then, and there were

793
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:05,080
Speaker 1: more houses closer to the stadium that had been bought

794
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 1: out and taken out, expanding the parking lot. And on

795
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:11,040
Speaker 1: game days, the people across the street they opened up

796
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 1: their yards so that everybody parks there. They also let

797
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:16,880
Speaker 1: the RVs come in. They don't let them come in

798
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:19,360
Speaker 1: two hours before. They let them come in the day before,

799
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 1: and they have an RV city out there where people

800
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,800
Speaker 1: all know each other and they throw a ball around

801
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,880
Speaker 1: the night before. A good friend of mine, Rocket Rosen,

802
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:31,799
Speaker 1: Houston attorney, who was suffering from als right now. He

803
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:35,880
Speaker 1: grew up a Packers fan in Miami Beach and the

804
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,799
Speaker 1: first time he ever came here, he came with me

805
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,880
Speaker 1: for a playoff game. And with their first year, they

806
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:45,920
Speaker 1: went to the playoffs under Farm Holgern and Mike reinfeldt

807
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:49,720
Speaker 1: for him. Oiler was their contract guide. He got Rocket

808
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 1: great seats and when we parked in the parking lot,

809
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,960
Speaker 1: we came four hours early. He went over and just

810
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:57,920
Speaker 1: the fans heardies from Houston. They treat him like Royalty

811
00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:00,439
Speaker 1: was throwing the ball in the parking lot. He wore

812
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:03,040
Speaker 1: out the soles of his shoes. A fan gut on

813
00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:05,959
Speaker 1: his bicycle, drove down the street to a strip center

814
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,839
Speaker 1: and brought him back some shoes. And when he got

815
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,320
Speaker 1: on the plane the next day with me, he's carrying

816
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 1: all this Packer stuff people gave him to take back

817
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,720
Speaker 1: to Houston. You know, he's going down the aisle hitting

818
00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:18,920
Speaker 1: people in the face. But they didn't care because it

819
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,439
Speaker 1: was packer stuff, and that's the way they are here.

820
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:26,879
Speaker 1: The people here are just fantastic, And of all the

821
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 1: things they say they've seen on the road, they've never

822
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:36,720
Speaker 1: seen anything like the bashed that Houston. Houston's Dugger went through.

823
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 1: And when Mike Sherman was the head coach at his

824
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 1: River Oaks mansion when he did a reenactment of the

825
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 1: ice ball I was there. I wrote about it. I

826
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,720
Speaker 1: brought all the Packers people other than the players and coaches,

827
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,040
Speaker 1: and they said, we've been seeing a lot of crazy

828
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:56,240
Speaker 1: things about the Packers through the years. And Lee Rumbled,

829
00:39:56,280 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 1: their long time media relations guy who covered Lombardi. He

830
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:02,400
Speaker 1: was there and he was eighty at the time. He

831
00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:05,960
Speaker 1: said he'd never seen anything like what Doug did, which

832
00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 1: was crugin Snow had the Eyes Bowl, turned his tennis

833
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:13,719
Speaker 1: court into Lambeau Fields or Beard food you get at

834
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 1: the stadium, and he had his pool a bass bug

835
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:21,360
Speaker 1: with a statue of Lombardy fishing floating all over his pool,

836
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:25,360
Speaker 1: and Packer people went crazy. The Hall of Fame upstairs

837
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 1: has We were walking around different sections and they have

838
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:30,799
Speaker 1: a section where they've got a couple rows of bleachers

839
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 1: and they've got uh, like wax figures that of fans.

840
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:39,720
Speaker 1: And then they've got a player like off to the side,

841
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:41,799
Speaker 1: a player sitting on the bench, and they've got like

842
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:43,919
Speaker 1: smoke coming out of their mouth, You're like the breath

843
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:48,400
Speaker 1: coming out. And they've got the they've got a countdown

844
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:52,960
Speaker 1: and it's the old clock. Uh it's the actual clock

845
00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:56,560
Speaker 1: that the that was here at Lambo before that Ice Bowl,

846
00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 1: and it counts down until the video starts. In the

847
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 1: video is just of the Ice Bowl and it's Ray

848
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,920
Speaker 1: Scott talking about the game, and it's and you can

849
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,480
Speaker 1: sit up in the stands and it's just this amazing.

850
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 1: It's incredible to see. But obviously the history of it,

851
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 1: it was just it's so neat because like you said,

852
00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:17,840
Speaker 1: it's such I mean, Mark and I talked about this.

853
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 1: We're driving into practice the other day, not last night,

854
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:21,879
Speaker 1: because I don't remember any of that because we're gonna

855
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:25,320
Speaker 1: like ninety in the in the neighborhood. But like these

856
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 1: these fans are mean, you go around the corner on

857
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,400
Speaker 1: these you're you're driving down the neighborhood and all a sudden,

858
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:33,800
Speaker 1: I said, you realize that the most storied NFL franchise

859
00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,319
Speaker 1: is literally on the other side of these houses. I mean,

860
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:38,480
Speaker 1: that's the that's the crazy part of being here. I

861
00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 1: tell everybody, go to Canton, Ohio, Green Bay, Wisconsin, and

862
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,319
Speaker 1: if you do those two things, you've seen the best

863
00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,640
Speaker 1: things you're ever gonna see in the NFL. I've been

864
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,440
Speaker 1: to both many times. I'm privileged to be able to

865
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:55,080
Speaker 1: do it. It's a privilege to be up here. Matt Lafour,

866
00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:57,560
Speaker 1: get the Texans back up here next year. Yes, yeah,

867
00:41:57,600 --> 00:41:59,880
Speaker 1: it would be great. Why did the Bears ruin so

868
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:05,359
Speaker 1: ultr field? Though? Because I think they did it and

869
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:07,759
Speaker 1: they were in a hurry. It was cheaper. They did

870
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:10,200
Speaker 1: it through one off season. I was in the press

871
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:14,840
Speaker 1: box writing a playoffs story while the people were literally

872
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 1: tearing it down after the game and telling us you

873
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,560
Speaker 1: had to be out in an hour or it was

874
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:22,680
Speaker 1: coming down with us in it. They were in such

875
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 1: a hurry to rebuild Soldier Field, and I thought the

876
00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:28,600
Speaker 1: way they did it was terrible. All right, John, what

877
00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:30,640
Speaker 1: do you have going on? In the Houston Chronicle? I

878
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 1: had today. I have a thing about the DB's benefiting

879
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:39,600
Speaker 1: from going against Rogers and practice. Aaron Wilson wrote about

880
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:43,920
Speaker 1: the connection between Hopkins and Watson, and I'm writing column

881
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,799
Speaker 1: for tomorrow about the game, and then we'll have all

882
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:49,600
Speaker 1: the coverage. They will be back in Houston with you guys,

883
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:51,880
Speaker 1: and thank you very much for having me. As always,

884
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:55,400
Speaker 1: how about that practice Saturday, which is an open practice.

885
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:57,640
Speaker 1: We'll be there covering it on all the social media

886
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,440
Speaker 1: channels and Houston Texans App. And by the way, the

887
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:02,960
Speaker 1: app has the game. You can watch the game on

888
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,279
Speaker 1: the app tomorrow, all the games this season. As a

894
00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:20,920
Speaker 1: the inside scoop as to what's going on with your

895
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,839
Speaker 1: team tomorrow night when they take out the Packers. Now,

896
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:25,919
Speaker 1: I've been looking forward to this for a long time,

897
00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 1: John Harris. We've been evaluating position groups every day. Yesterday

898
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:34,000
Speaker 1: we did special teams, quarterbacks the day before. We've done

899
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:37,880
Speaker 1: them all and one thing we thought was, how are

900
00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:39,359
Speaker 1: we going to do it on the last day? What

901
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:41,440
Speaker 1: are we going to do? Do we want to recap.

902
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,000
Speaker 1: Do we want to do one position group over again?

903
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:48,280
Speaker 1: And then we decided let's evaluate every position on the team.

904
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:53,600
Speaker 1: John has eight seconds average per player to evaluate every

905
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:56,680
Speaker 1: position on the team. He is going to do this next.

906
00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,480
Speaker 1: It is going to be radio history. Ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 1: be here, and we are about to do something we've

924
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:09,480
Speaker 1: never done before. John Harris will break down every position

925
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:12,160
Speaker 1: on the roster. So let's let it rip. He's got

926
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:15,080
Speaker 1: an average of eight seconds for a player, and we'll

927
00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:18,399
Speaker 1: see if Johnny can do it. All right, So let's

928
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:22,799
Speaker 1: roll the music and John Harris will now attempt to

929
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:25,360
Speaker 1: evaluate every position on the team. We're gonna go in

930
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:27,480
Speaker 1: alphabetical order because I couldn't think of a better way

931
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:29,239
Speaker 1: to do it. So here we go, all right, here

932
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:32,560
Speaker 1: we go. Jerell Adams tight end, Johnny, he's been the

933
00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 1: best fifth tight end that I can remember. Scenes made

934
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:37,120
Speaker 1: a ton of catches in this camp and great up

935
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:40,239
Speaker 1: in Green Bay. Gonna compete really hard on Thursday night. Yeah,

936
00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:42,880
Speaker 1: he'll play a lot Tyrrell Adams linebacker, he'll play a

937
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:44,960
Speaker 1: lot too, He absolutely will. He can fly. He's a

938
00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 1: great special teams player. Excited to see what he brings

939
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:50,680
Speaker 1: on kickoff team and put coverage team blocked ut last year,

940
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:52,560
Speaker 1: gets Buffalo. That's the way he's gonna make this team.

941
00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:54,719
Speaker 1: I might give you some player and uniform numbers here,

942
00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 1: so you can watch tomorrow night. Not you, but the audience.

943
00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:00,520
Speaker 1: All right. Jalila Die number thirty seven news safety for

944
00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 1: this team this year if I'm the Chargers, such a

945
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:05,680
Speaker 1: valued member of the secondary, tons of experience, plays with

946
00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:08,000
Speaker 1: a lot of fire, can play a dime linebacker spot

947
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:10,880
Speaker 1: and play either the safety spots. Is really great in disguises.

948
00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:12,920
Speaker 1: I love the fact that he's on his team. Jordan

949
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:16,520
Speaker 1: Again's tight end year too. He's breaking out. He's really

950
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:18,719
Speaker 1: he's breaking out. I told a group yesterday. If you're

951
00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:22,160
Speaker 1: looking for some low key late round fantasy guys, he's

952
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:23,719
Speaker 1: a guy who definitely want to add as a tight end.

953
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:27,680
Speaker 1: Floyd Allen wide receiver. Love his story coming from old miss,

954
00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 1: former non scholarship player. It's gonna be tough to make

955
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 1: this roster, but the fact he's gotten as far as

956
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:33,719
Speaker 1: great and you know he's gonna give you everything he's

957
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,280
Speaker 1: got every single time he's on the field. Brian Anger

958
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:39,919
Speaker 1: upon her signed not that long ago. Bangers. This dude

959
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:43,839
Speaker 1: hits bombs. Great competition between he and Trevor Daniel Jesse

960
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,439
Speaker 1: and a Bonham outside linebacker rookie from Maryland can rush

961
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:49,560
Speaker 1: the quarterback at a great rush yesterday beating a double

962
00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:51,479
Speaker 1: team and getting a sack in the quarterback. That's gonna

963
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:53,560
Speaker 1: be his ticket, whether he can rush the quarterback or not.

964
00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:57,440
Speaker 1: Johnson and Batamosei year two in the organization, corner and

965
00:46:57,480 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 1: special teamer. What a fun guy, excellent special team where

966
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:02,560
Speaker 1: he's kind of our version of Matt Slater. Probably not

967
00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:04,640
Speaker 1: going to play a ton on defense. He won preseason,

968
00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:06,480
Speaker 1: not during the season, but man, he could fly down

969
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:09,920
Speaker 1: special teams and makes plays. Derek Beatty, rookie from Kentucky,

970
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:12,839
Speaker 1: a corner that played with Linnie Johnson. Love his length,

971
00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:15,440
Speaker 1: He's got some speed. He's got to be more discipline.

972
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,840
Speaker 1: Had a couple on discipline moments, not fighting wise, but

973
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:20,880
Speaker 1: just on the field. He's got to be more discipline.

974
00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:22,319
Speaker 1: But if he can, there's something to work with there

975
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:26,080
Speaker 1: for sure. Davin Bellamy out of Georgia, year two. Can

976
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:27,960
Speaker 1: he make a difference this year if he can find

977
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:31,640
Speaker 1: a consistent pass rush down in and down out. He's

978
00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:33,400
Speaker 1: got that in him to do it. He can do

979
00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:35,360
Speaker 1: it in bunches. He's got to be more consistent to

980
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:37,400
Speaker 1: do it to be able to make this roster. B J.

981
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:42,759
Speaker 1: Bellow recently acquired inside linebacker six three two twenty nine

982
00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:46,520
Speaker 1: Tasmanian devil inside. I mean he is so aggressive, sometimes

983
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:48,919
Speaker 1: ultra aggressive, but man, he can run and he's gonna

984
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:51,759
Speaker 1: strike you. Angelo Blackson people getting to know him, a

985
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:54,760
Speaker 1: little bit of six four three twenty pound defensive lineman,

986
00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:58,520
Speaker 1: quietly becoming one of the better players, not only on

987
00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:01,239
Speaker 1: this roster but in the AFCs. Very difficult to move,

988
00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:04,080
Speaker 1: excellent interior player. We're still only on the bees. Brian

989
00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:09,320
Speaker 1: Body Calhoun corner love his sloughtability, his all round game leadership.

990
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:14,839
Speaker 1: He's a great veteran Deonte Burton cornerback, length guy, can run,

991
00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,080
Speaker 1: a little bit, former wide receiver in Kansas State. It's

992
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,520
Speaker 1: gonna be a big stage for him the next few

993
00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:22,600
Speaker 1: preseason actually the next week with the two games and

994
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:24,879
Speaker 1: then preseason practices against the lines. They're gonna be big

995
00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:27,040
Speaker 1: for that guy, all right. He hasn't practiced yet, he

996
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:30,640
Speaker 1: hasn't reported yet. Joevian Clowney, he's great. A R. D. J.

997
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:35,120
Speaker 1: Cooker center, He's a guy on Thursday night, I'm gonna

998
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:38,000
Speaker 1: have my eyes on. He had a little few, a

999
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,080
Speaker 1: few rough moments early on in camp, but he started

1000
00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:42,240
Speaker 1: to kind of come into his own a little bit inside.

1001
00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:44,319
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be very interesting to watch at

1002
00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:49,040
Speaker 1: a Rhodes College. Rhodes College, which is where in Tennessee. Okay,

1003
00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:52,040
Speaker 1: Dylan Cole linebacker. We've heard of him. Now, what's to

1004
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:54,399
Speaker 1: say about this? Because he's everything you want a football player. Man,

1005
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 1: he's just not six three two forty. If you worry,

1006
00:48:56,560 --> 00:48:59,439
Speaker 1: you'd be the best linebacker in the league. Really, yes,

1007
00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:03,640
Speaker 1: Oh my god. Aaron Colvin corner signed from Jacksonville last year,

1008
00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:06,480
Speaker 1: got hurt, big spotlight on him on Thursday night. He's

1009
00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:09,400
Speaker 1: got to wrap up that slot cover job and there

1010
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:11,279
Speaker 1: are a few guys that are pushing forward. He's got

1011
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:13,680
Speaker 1: to play well over the next three weeks. Kek Qt

1012
00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:16,160
Speaker 1: plays the slot on offense. He can get open in

1013
00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:18,279
Speaker 1: a phone booth. He is really matured into the second

1014
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:20,600
Speaker 1: year player this team really wants and needs. I think

1015
00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:23,759
Speaker 1: he could be an eighty to eighty five catch guy

1016
00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:26,440
Speaker 1: this year. What's a phone booth? All right, Let's go

1017
00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:30,120
Speaker 1: to Xavier Crawford, rookie corner from Central Michigan. He's had

1018
00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:32,200
Speaker 1: some hiccups just trying to learn how to plan a

1019
00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:34,640
Speaker 1: slot position, but once he gets it down, he's got

1020
00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:37,440
Speaker 1: the length, he's got the size. I mean, he's not

1021
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 1: a massive guy, but he can absolutely fly. Rookie running

1022
00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:42,680
Speaker 1: back from Missouri Demarria Crockett trying to rise on the

1023
00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 1: depth chart. Now you know, I love this guy. This

1024
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:47,240
Speaker 1: guy has really risen up the depth charted for good reason.

1025
00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:49,800
Speaker 1: He runs hard, he's smart, he does everything coaching staff

1026
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:52,920
Speaker 1: ass and he's really got He got some great reps

1027
00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:55,160
Speaker 1: as the number two back over the last couple of days.

1028
00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:56,880
Speaker 1: I think Crockett has looked very good. A lot of

1029
00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:59,240
Speaker 1: people assume, but Ardrick McKinney led the team and tackles

1030
00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:01,600
Speaker 1: last year. Note was Zach Cunningham. What about him? I

1031
00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:03,839
Speaker 1: love he is six three two forty and I think

1032
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:05,760
Speaker 1: he is one of the better inside linebackers in the league.

1033
00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:08,399
Speaker 1: He does a little bit of everything, covers hits, made

1034
00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:10,320
Speaker 1: two the bigger hits last year. I think Zach is

1035
00:50:10,320 --> 00:50:13,480
Speaker 1: an underrated player in this league. John Harris evaluating every

1036
00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:17,320
Speaker 1: player on the roster quickly. Trevor Daniel Putter, He and

1037
00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:20,240
Speaker 1: Bangers is a great competition, as I said, and Trevor

1038
00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:22,560
Speaker 1: I think is probably a step ahead. But he had

1039
00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:25,000
Speaker 1: a really good rookie year and I think he's onto

1040
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:29,279
Speaker 1: bigger things for sure this year. Julian Davenport tackle six

1041
00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:32,439
Speaker 1: seven three twenty five. Well, it seems as if he's

1042
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:34,399
Speaker 1: moved back to a number two spot, but that might

1043
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:36,920
Speaker 1: be the right spot for him to really work back

1044
00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:40,480
Speaker 1: as the number three guy. Worst case, I think he's

1045
00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:42,840
Speaker 1: the swing tackle on this team. Best case, he probably

1046
00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:46,040
Speaker 1: moves over to the right side. Jamal Davis a pass

1047
00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:50,600
Speaker 1: rusher outside linebacker. He is freaky. He is fast, he's athletic.

1048
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:53,600
Speaker 1: He is all over the place, and that's the problem.

1049
00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:55,239
Speaker 1: If you will, he's got to rain that in. If

1050
00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:57,480
Speaker 1: he does, he's gonna be my rookie to watch on

1051
00:50:57,560 --> 00:51:00,560
Speaker 1: Thursday night. That guy can rush the quarterback. Nne Dixon

1052
00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:03,080
Speaker 1: rookie white out from the Buckeye. You know, Johnny's faster

1053
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:04,279
Speaker 1: than he is quick, and a lot of times you

1054
00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:07,080
Speaker 1: shave the other way around. He is Linearly fast, but

1055
00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:08,680
Speaker 1: he's not as quick and out of his breaks, and

1056
00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:10,720
Speaker 1: I think sometimes that slows him down in the slot.

1057
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:13,200
Speaker 1: But he catches everything and once he gets in his hands,

1058
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:16,160
Speaker 1: he makes something happen after the catch. Linney Early, that's

1059
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:19,000
Speaker 1: a tongue twister word. Brandon Dunne nose tackle. Well, I

1060
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:22,280
Speaker 1: love Donnie. One of the better run stoppers, stuffers stoppers

1061
00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:24,839
Speaker 1: that we're gonna find. You're gonna see number ninety five

1062
00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:27,560
Speaker 1: tomorrow night, and it's Johnny Dwight, not Christian Covington. What

1063
00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:29,759
Speaker 1: about Johnny. Yeah, he's a shade over three hundred pounds.

1064
00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:31,600
Speaker 1: I think he's a lot like Brandon Dunne. He's a

1065
00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:33,960
Speaker 1: little bit smaller, but he has pretty good technique. Kevin

1066
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:36,040
Speaker 1: played at Alabama and I think he's gonna get a

1067
00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:38,520
Speaker 1: lot of run over the next couple of weeks in

1068
00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:41,600
Speaker 1: these preseason games against the Packers and Lions. Haavey Edwards

1069
00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:43,960
Speaker 1: nose tackle. I love having a player named Haavey Boy.

1070
00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:45,640
Speaker 1: He is a load. They try to move him on

1071
00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:47,200
Speaker 1: the goal line a few days ago and they just

1072
00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:49,319
Speaker 1: could not do it. He has a big dude out

1073
00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:51,200
Speaker 1: a Colorado that can move a little bit. It's gonna

1074
00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:53,080
Speaker 1: be tough with this defensive line to make it, but

1075
00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:56,440
Speaker 1: he's a Houston homeboy. I'm really excited to see Austin expert,

1076
00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:58,359
Speaker 1: a safety no one has heard of. But you're gonna

1077
00:51:58,360 --> 00:51:59,920
Speaker 1: see in tomorrow night, and he's got to show out

1078
00:51:59,920 --> 00:52:02,000
Speaker 1: of special teams. Number forty seven. No doubt he's got

1079
00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:03,919
Speaker 1: a shot on special teams, but he's made a couple

1080
00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:07,240
Speaker 1: of plays in coverage that I'm not sure any other safeties,

1081
00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:10,120
Speaker 1: especially in that later the twos and the threes could

1082
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:12,520
Speaker 1: have made. So he's very intriguing as a safety slash

1083
00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:18,640
Speaker 1: special teamer. Kaimu Fairbaron, I think he's tremendous. I think

1084
00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:20,120
Speaker 1: he's going to turn himself into one of the better

1085
00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:22,239
Speaker 1: kickers in the league here very soon. Tight end former

1086
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:25,279
Speaker 1: pro basketball player Darren Fells. I love having the veteran round.

1087
00:52:25,320 --> 00:52:27,959
Speaker 1: He has got such a great veteran presence and he's

1088
00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:30,120
Speaker 1: caught everything thrown his way the last few days, including

1089
00:52:30,160 --> 00:52:32,880
Speaker 1: a big touchdown and redsne work with Shawn Watson yesterday.

1090
00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:36,480
Speaker 1: Josh freaky fast Ferguson, he is freaky fast. He's not

1091
00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:39,280
Speaker 1: a big guy. He's a candidate for the third down position,

1092
00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:41,320
Speaker 1: but he's shown some juice when he's run the football

1093
00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:44,400
Speaker 1: that running back. The running back competition is really interesting.

1094
00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:47,120
Speaker 1: Will Fuller the fifth for six, Yeah, I think he's

1095
00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:48,560
Speaker 1: ready to be one of the better wide receivers in

1096
00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:51,920
Speaker 1: the league. Next Zack Fulton. Huge. I think there's so

1097
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:53,959
Speaker 1: many different things you can do with Zach Plam at center,

1098
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:56,200
Speaker 1: playmat guard. Whether he starts or he doesn't, he's going

1099
00:52:56,239 --> 00:52:57,759
Speaker 1: to be a key factor in his team because when

1100
00:52:57,800 --> 00:52:59,520
Speaker 1: he hits you, he's got some heavy hands. He's gonna

1101
00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:02,640
Speaker 1: make it hurt. The twelfth man Gillie. Oh what do

1102
00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:06,040
Speaker 1: you do with Gillie? Fullback? Special teams? Does he become

1103
00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:08,279
Speaker 1: a third down back because he can pass protect? I

1104
00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:10,440
Speaker 1: love what you can do with this guy. He's a

1105
00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:12,279
Speaker 1: Swiss Army knife, and I think he's the perfect kind

1106
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:14,640
Speaker 1: of Swiss Army knife. A guy who runs the four, five, six,

1107
00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:17,439
Speaker 1: one thirty five. Great story, but a seventh round draft choice,

1108
00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:19,400
Speaker 1: he's got to do something in these games, right, no

1109
00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:22,959
Speaker 1: doubt to Sean Gibson, recently acquired in the offseason, Thumb

1110
00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:25,480
Speaker 1: jacksonville the perfect fit at safety for this group. I

1111
00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:27,239
Speaker 1: think he and Justin Reid are gonna make for a

1112
00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:30,239
Speaker 1: very good safety Tannon for sure. Chad Hanson, one of

1113
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:32,840
Speaker 1: the Hanson brothers, had a great catch yesterday going across

1114
00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:35,320
Speaker 1: the middle. He's got some good wheels, good hands, runs

1115
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:38,000
Speaker 1: really good routes, but he's got some good speed, so

1116
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:40,000
Speaker 1: he's gonna he's gonna be on display over the next

1117
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:42,600
Speaker 1: couple of preseason games as well. Joel Heath, who has

1118
00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:45,480
Speaker 1: certainly flashed in his career. He's in his fourth year.

1119
00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:47,960
Speaker 1: He is healthy and I think that's the biggest thing.

1120
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:50,280
Speaker 1: When he has been healthy, he has been very productive

1121
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:51,719
Speaker 1: and he's got to be to be able to make

1122
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:53,840
Speaker 1: that defensive line roster and if he is healthy, I

1123
00:53:53,880 --> 00:53:55,960
Speaker 1: think he's gonna make it and make an impact. Sean

1124
00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:59,160
Speaker 1: trell Svelt Henderson. Yeah, he's down to about three fifteen,

1125
00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:01,759
Speaker 1: but he's moved over the right tackle spot and he

1126
00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:05,040
Speaker 1: can stay healthy. He has got some heavy hands and

1127
00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:07,000
Speaker 1: he's got some pop and I think they really like

1128
00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:08,680
Speaker 1: that in the run game. Can he opened up some

1129
00:54:08,680 --> 00:54:12,280
Speaker 1: good holes yesterday working along or working alongside Max Sharping

1130
00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:14,480
Speaker 1: to get to Maria Crockett on it to the secondary.

1131
00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:16,760
Speaker 1: So I think Henderson's got a lot upside. John Harrid's

1132
00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:18,880
Speaker 1: breaking down every position on the roster in this segment.

1133
00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:22,759
Speaker 1: A J Hendy, he at safety, has been in on

1134
00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:24,759
Speaker 1: this team, he's been off this team, he's been back

1135
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:26,719
Speaker 1: on this team. He's gonna have to earn this on

1136
00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:30,560
Speaker 1: special teams. But great body, great length, great size, great speed.

1137
00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:32,440
Speaker 1: He's just got to come together at safety to give

1138
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:37,759
Speaker 1: an opportunity to get a look on special teams. He's tiny,

1139
00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:40,560
Speaker 1: but he's not small, and he runs hard. He'll get

1140
00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:42,160
Speaker 1: a lot of carries over the next week or so.

1141
00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:46,120
Speaker 1: Two O two five ten. DeAndre Hopkins, Yeah, the best

1142
00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:50,120
Speaker 1: in the league. Next Titus Howard, rookie guard, tackle whatever.

1143
00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:53,960
Speaker 1: I love his demeanor, I love everything about him. I

1144
00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:56,399
Speaker 1: can see exactly why the Texans drafted him at number

1145
00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:58,080
Speaker 1: twenty three. I mean, he was the right guy at

1146
00:54:58,080 --> 00:55:00,960
Speaker 1: the right time, Buddy hal to get an opportunity of

1147
00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:02,680
Speaker 1: running back. But he's a special teamer. Yeah, and it

1148
00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:04,720
Speaker 1: could be at fullback too, But he's an excellent special

1149
00:55:04,719 --> 00:55:06,000
Speaker 1: team or a guy you just love to have the

1150
00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:08,960
Speaker 1: round the roster because he'd do anything for you. Albert

1151
00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:11,879
Speaker 1: Huggins from the team's unofficial Triple A affiliate, Clemson. Yeah,

1152
00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:14,399
Speaker 1: a guy that didn't had to play alongside a lot

1153
00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:16,280
Speaker 1: of guys from Clemson that made it to the league

1154
00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:18,799
Speaker 1: as first rounders. So he's got an uphill climb with

1155
00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:21,000
Speaker 1: all those defensive linement. But I think he can play.

1156
00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:24,399
Speaker 1: There's no question he can play. Chris Johnson, safety from

1157
00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:27,360
Speaker 1: North Alabama. I love his speed. I love watching Johnson

1158
00:55:27,360 --> 00:55:28,759
Speaker 1: back there, but he's gonna have to be a guy

1159
00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:30,399
Speaker 1: that makes it on special teams, So those are gonna

1160
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:32,160
Speaker 1: be key reps for him on Thursday night for sure.

1161
00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:35,400
Speaker 1: Lonnie Johnson, who was sent home from practice on Mondays,

1162
00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:37,640
Speaker 1: I mean six two two fifteen. He doesn't even look

1163
00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:40,160
Speaker 1: like a corner, but he plays with that brick sized

1164
00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 1: chip on his shoulder. He's got to rein that in

1165
00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:45,799
Speaker 1: and use that as opposed to trying to fight with

1166
00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:47,560
Speaker 1: all of it. And if he can use it in

1167
00:55:47,640 --> 00:55:49,520
Speaker 1: channel it, he'll be one of the better defensive backs

1168
00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:51,680
Speaker 1: we've seen in a while in Houston. Roderick, don't forget

1169
00:55:51,719 --> 00:55:53,799
Speaker 1: about me Johnson, I think the most improved player on

1170
00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:57,080
Speaker 1: his roster to this point. Tyrn Johnson, wide receiver Oklahoma State.

1171
00:55:57,120 --> 00:55:59,319
Speaker 1: He can fly and he's just got to make sure

1172
00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:01,760
Speaker 1: he keeps his it's about him and knows the playbook

1173
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:03,680
Speaker 1: inside and out and knows what to do every single

1174
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:06,080
Speaker 1: time he's on the field because he can play. Taiwan

1175
00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:09,080
Speaker 1: Jones running back. He as a veteran. He's the type

1176
00:56:09,080 --> 00:56:11,080
Speaker 1: of guy you love having around. He's got four three

1177
00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:14,319
Speaker 1: speed still nine years into the league. Jjo I mean,

1178
00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:16,279
Speaker 1: what do you say about Jjo. He's the best. He's

1179
00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:18,040
Speaker 1: the best. He's the veteran guy you want to have

1180
00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:20,560
Speaker 1: in the back fourteenth year in the league. Peter Kellimbite

1181
00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:24,359
Speaker 1: a guy that at inside linebacker, outside linebacker. He plays

1182
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:27,200
Speaker 1: with some popp and he's excellent special teams. Matt Khalil.

1183
00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:30,239
Speaker 1: He's probably the biggest surprise to me all of camp

1184
00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:32,239
Speaker 1: because I had no idea what to expect, and it

1185
00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:34,280
Speaker 1: was a little rough against some of the Packers yesterday

1186
00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:36,000
Speaker 1: and the day before that a little bit. But he's

1187
00:56:36,040 --> 00:56:37,600
Speaker 1: really shown how much he means to this team and

1188
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:39,560
Speaker 1: left tackle, and I think the coaching staff really likes him.

1189
00:56:39,640 --> 00:56:41,680
Speaker 1: Saniel I don't know how you get that pronouncation from

1190
00:56:41,719 --> 00:56:46,320
Speaker 1: the spelling. Yeah, Snil Callamette really in a tough competition

1191
00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:48,399
Speaker 1: to play at guard. Strong, good in the run game.

1192
00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:50,440
Speaker 1: Pass protection still needs a little bit of work, but

1193
00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:52,839
Speaker 1: he's in a really tough competition to make this team

1194
00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:56,879
Speaker 1: at guard. Jermaine Kelly, I've seen him, don't know, Yeah, Yeah,

1195
00:56:57,000 --> 00:57:00,600
Speaker 1: Hurt Chris Landrum, good pass rusher, He's got some good

1196
00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:02,840
Speaker 1: pass rush technique. Got to help hold the edge a

1197
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:05,920
Speaker 1: little bit better against the run. Rick Leonard really improved

1198
00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:08,319
Speaker 1: once he moved into guard. I've been really impressed with

1199
00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:10,600
Speaker 1: what Rick has brought to them as he's moved into guard.

1200
00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:12,799
Speaker 1: It's been crazy to watch him grows a guard when

1201
00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:16,480
Speaker 1: he's really a tackle. Stephen Lewis wide receiver, a big

1202
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:18,920
Speaker 1: rookie from out of NCY State. He made a couple

1203
00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:21,400
Speaker 1: of big plays yesterday in the passing game. It's just

1204
00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:23,400
Speaker 1: so tough at that receivering crew. But man, he's got

1205
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:25,200
Speaker 1: every asset you want in wide receiver. He's just not

1206
00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:31,080
Speaker 1: blazingly fast. Greg Mans the indispensable offensive linement you've got

1207
00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:33,400
Speaker 1: to have. Okay, we got only like a minute or

1208
00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:37,440
Speaker 1: two left. Quick. Nick Martin gotta get back healthy. A J. McCarron.

1209
00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:42,520
Speaker 1: Hopefully he is healthy. Bernardrick McKinney, best inside linebacker in

1210
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:45,320
Speaker 1: the game. What he merciless. He's shown what he can

1211
00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:48,080
Speaker 1: do from the outside this year, and I think if

1212
00:57:48,120 --> 00:57:51,000
Speaker 1: we get in training camp during the season, I think

1213
00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:52,959
Speaker 1: he can end up being a pro bowler. Lamar Miller

1214
00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:56,160
Speaker 1: trust him. I want him as my every down back,

1215
00:57:56,240 --> 00:57:59,600
Speaker 1: every down stell. I don't think you can cut him.

1216
00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:01,680
Speaker 1: I think he's been phenomenal receiver. He's been excellent up

1217
00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:05,520
Speaker 1: here in Green Bay. Wow A J. Moore, the perfect

1218
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:08,880
Speaker 1: player in the secondary and on special teams. And Chuck Amena,

1219
00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:12,760
Speaker 1: who consistency is the one thing that Chuck's got to find.

1220
00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:13,960
Speaker 1: If he can find it, he can be a big

1221
00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:17,640
Speaker 1: time player. Walter Palmore a rookie who's gonna it's gonna

1222
00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:19,480
Speaker 1: be tough to make this roster, but he is a

1223
00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:22,760
Speaker 1: big dude. It's hard to move to Mail President new

1224
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:24,880
Speaker 1: to the roster because of some injuries. He can rush

1225
00:58:24,920 --> 00:58:26,280
Speaker 1: the quarterback a little bit, but he's got to play

1226
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:29,400
Speaker 1: the run better. Malcolm pridgeton offensive Lemon He's got a

1227
00:58:29,440 --> 00:58:31,360
Speaker 1: long way to come as a tackle. It's gonna be

1228
00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:33,840
Speaker 1: tough to make the team. Martinez rankin. I think for

1229
00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:36,360
Speaker 1: Martinez there's he's got to find the right spot. I

1230
00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:38,000
Speaker 1: don't know if tackles it, don't if guards it, but

1231
00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:41,200
Speaker 1: he's got a big showcase on Thursday night. DJ Reader

1232
00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:45,200
Speaker 1: the best tier guy in the game. Really. Justin Reid

1233
00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:47,800
Speaker 1: gonna be one of the better safeties in the league

1234
00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:51,240
Speaker 1: in due time. Bradley Roby the speed that you want

1235
00:58:51,240 --> 00:58:54,040
Speaker 1: to have, the cover ability. I think he if he

1236
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:55,800
Speaker 1: can find a consistent level, he can be a star.

1237
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:58,360
Speaker 1: Ira Savage Lewis, I like having a player. He's made

1238
00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:00,480
Speaker 1: a bunch of plays in training camp already. Man, he

1239
00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:02,320
Speaker 1: is a really intriguing player to me. On the interior.

1240
00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:05,439
Speaker 1: Brendan Scarlett, a player you gotta have, does a little

1241
00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:07,880
Speaker 1: bit of everything on your team. Can Rush may start

1242
00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:10,720
Speaker 1: in bass. I mean he's gonna be a really indispensable player,

1243
00:59:10,720 --> 00:59:14,680
Speaker 1: even though he may not start. Max Sharping, heavy hands,

1244
00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:20,400
Speaker 1: big and smart, knows everything. Marquis Shakira thick well, he

1245
00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:22,160
Speaker 1: is stout. He may had a couple of really good

1246
00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:28,040
Speaker 1: blocks yesterday against the Packers. Interior front Vincent Smith really

1247
00:59:28,280 --> 00:59:30,960
Speaker 1: making that stride for first and the second year. These

1248
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:33,600
Speaker 1: weeks in preseason and also against the Lions are gonna

1249
00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:35,520
Speaker 1: be huge for him to lock down that fourth spot.

1250
00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:38,240
Speaker 1: David's diamonds. I don't know. It's gonna be tough for

1251
00:59:38,320 --> 00:59:40,520
Speaker 1: David to make the team, but a tackle that's had

1252
00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:42,680
Speaker 1: some good reps, but he's just I don't know if

1253
00:59:42,680 --> 00:59:44,120
Speaker 1: he's gonna make it with all the guys having the

1254
00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:48,000
Speaker 1: offensive line right now, Jordan gotta get back on the field, man.

1255
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:51,560
Speaker 1: We need that guy wearing what an athlete Mike Goodness

1256
00:59:51,600 --> 00:59:53,520
Speaker 1: but he's turning himself into a really good tight end.

1257
00:59:53,520 --> 00:59:55,200
Speaker 1: I think in due time, Wearing is gonna be a

1258
00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:56,920
Speaker 1: guy that we talk about for a long time in Houston.

1259
00:59:57,040 --> 01:00:00,720
Speaker 1: All Right, if you left Carlos Watkins, he left the

1260
01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:02,440
Speaker 1: field yesterday a little bit dinged up. This is a

1261
01:00:02,480 --> 01:00:04,720
Speaker 1: big couple of weeks for him in preseason to make

1262
01:00:04,760 --> 01:00:07,400
Speaker 1: this defensive line roster. The Shawn Watson, Yeah he's good.

1263
01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:10,560
Speaker 1: J J Watt, Yeah he's good. Jester way up, he's

1264
01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:12,640
Speaker 1: good too. But he's got to make sure that he

1265
01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:15,959
Speaker 1: can be consistent catching the football in these preseason games

1266
01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:18,200
Speaker 1: and really stand out as the fifth, maybe sixth receiver.

1267
01:00:18,360 --> 01:00:21,200
Speaker 1: Joe Webb indispensable. How could you not have a guy

1268
01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:25,040
Speaker 1: like Joe Webb, John Weeks phenomenal, the best less long

1269
01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:29,400
Speaker 1: snapper in the league. Xavier Woodson luster, fast, but tough

1270
01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:31,520
Speaker 1: going against the run. It's really tough at two hundred

1271
01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:33,640
Speaker 1: and twenty pounds. That's it. Every player on the roster

1272
01:00:33,720 --> 01:00:37,480
Speaker 1: by John Harris. Congratulations, you did it all right. Next upright,

1273
01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:42,200
Speaker 1: glass half full, glass half empty. The first six games

1274
01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:44,960
Speaker 1: on the schedule, we will paint the picture for you

1275
01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:48,520
Speaker 1: both sides. It's coming up. And then Landrylockers questions of

1276
01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:52,920
Speaker 1: the day. It's Texans Training Camp Live. Boy from training

1277
01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:55,919
Speaker 1: Camp is on the way on Texans Training Camp Live,

1278
01:00:56,520 --> 01:01:03,520
Speaker 1: bringing camp a new era of Texans football begins and

1279
01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:09,440
Speaker 1: you're a partner on Texans Radio. Back to Texans Training

1280
01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:14,680
Speaker 1: Camp Live. Yeah, we're back here at lambeau Field as

1281
01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:17,320
Speaker 1: this is our last Texans Training Camp Live program. And

1282
01:01:17,400 --> 01:01:20,440
Speaker 1: John just broke down every position on the roster in

1283
01:01:20,440 --> 01:01:23,680
Speaker 1: one segment. So that was very cool to hear. I

1284
01:01:23,760 --> 01:01:26,360
Speaker 1: think there should be. I mean, we have several landmark

1285
01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:29,120
Speaker 1: moments in the history of radio, like when Marconi first

1286
01:01:29,320 --> 01:01:34,600
Speaker 1: invented radio. We have when television was invented and or

1287
01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:37,360
Speaker 1: popularized really in the fifties and people thought that's the

1288
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:41,040
Speaker 1: end of radio. Clearly not. We have when cable television

1289
01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:45,560
Speaker 1: was popularized and that was the end of radio. Clearly not. Well,

1290
01:01:45,720 --> 01:01:49,040
Speaker 1: podcasting is going to end radio. It hasn't happened. So

1291
01:01:49,280 --> 01:01:51,880
Speaker 1: here we go. Anyway, this segment glass half full, glass

1292
01:01:51,920 --> 01:01:54,080
Speaker 1: half empty? Are you ready for this? John? First six

1293
01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:56,640
Speaker 1: games of the schedule, which we know has been called

1294
01:01:56,640 --> 01:01:59,440
Speaker 1: by some murderers. Row of quarterbacks. You have Drew Brees,

1295
01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:02,840
Speaker 1: Nick Foles, if he's good with the Jaguars. Well, I

1296
01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:04,560
Speaker 1: don't want to get into this yet, but you know

1297
01:02:04,560 --> 01:02:07,480
Speaker 1: that's class half full, glass half empty, right, Philip Rivers,

1298
01:02:07,640 --> 01:02:11,120
Speaker 1: Cam Newton, Matt Ryan, who's about to hit fifty thousand yards,

1299
01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:14,360
Speaker 1: and Patrick Mahomes who's pretty good, and then Andrew Luck.

1300
01:02:14,880 --> 01:02:19,000
Speaker 1: So basically, through the first six games, you're facing a

1301
01:02:19,120 --> 01:02:24,040
Speaker 1: league MVP or a Super Bowl MVP in every week

1302
01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:27,480
Speaker 1: except for Rivers. Except for Rivers, well you're facing how

1303
01:02:27,520 --> 01:02:30,840
Speaker 1: about this Hall of famers, Hall of Famer Breeze, Hall

1304
01:02:30,880 --> 01:02:35,080
Speaker 1: of Famer Nick Foles will hold the phone Rivers borderline.

1305
01:02:35,400 --> 01:02:37,640
Speaker 1: I think you will. Okay, I think you will. Cam Newton,

1306
01:02:37,760 --> 01:02:41,360
Speaker 1: I don't think so, but maybe someday. Matt Ryan, No,

1307
01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:45,120
Speaker 1: but maybe if he but league MVPs in fifteen and

1308
01:02:45,160 --> 01:02:47,800
Speaker 1: sixteen back to back, maybe he catches fire. And I

1309
01:02:47,800 --> 01:02:49,840
Speaker 1: don't think I don't think he's all Homes way too early.

1310
01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:52,560
Speaker 1: But he's on the trajectory. Well he's he's off to

1311
01:02:52,560 --> 01:02:56,000
Speaker 1: a hell of a start. Andrew Luck not yet, but

1312
01:02:56,160 --> 01:02:58,320
Speaker 1: you never know. But these are all really good quarterbacks.

1313
01:02:58,360 --> 01:03:03,000
Speaker 1: We all agree with that. Okay, glass half full, Okay,

1314
01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:05,840
Speaker 1: let's do we should we do empty? Let's do empty? First,

1315
01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:08,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do empty first. All right, you're in the dome,

1316
01:03:08,040 --> 01:03:12,480
Speaker 1: it's Monday night, it's Drew Brees. It's loud. You're scoring points,

1317
01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:14,720
Speaker 1: but you can't keep pace with Drew Brees because it's

1318
01:03:14,800 --> 01:03:17,000
Speaker 1: quiet when he's on the field and he's just dealing

1319
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:22,080
Speaker 1: because he's Drew freaking Breeze and your defense maybe better even,

1320
01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:25,280
Speaker 1: but my gosh, it's Drew Brees and he's got all

1321
01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:28,959
Speaker 1: the weapons at his disposal. They're healthy. He's on fire.

1322
01:03:29,040 --> 01:03:31,480
Speaker 1: It's early. You know, maybe later later in the season

1323
01:03:31,560 --> 01:03:34,120
Speaker 1: he you know, wears down at his age or whatever happens.

1324
01:03:34,200 --> 01:03:38,160
Speaker 1: But maybe not. But the Saints deal, right absolutely. That's

1325
01:03:38,200 --> 01:03:41,320
Speaker 1: that's glass half full. That's half full. Now that's for them.

1326
01:03:41,360 --> 01:03:43,760
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, that's glass half empty for the Texans. Half

1327
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:47,480
Speaker 1: stick to your bit, Mark Tez, glass half full. No.

1328
01:03:47,560 --> 01:03:50,320
Speaker 1: Sheldon rankings on the interior, one of the better interior players.

1329
01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:52,200
Speaker 1: He's kind of the Saints version of DJ. Readers say,

1330
01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:53,960
Speaker 1: you won't have that. You want to have mark Ingram

1331
01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:58,640
Speaker 1: So what kind of running game will you have because

1332
01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:00,840
Speaker 1: you want to use Camaris much in the passing game,

1333
01:04:00,920 --> 01:04:03,360
Speaker 1: I mean in the championship game, and there's a. It's

1334
01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:05,320
Speaker 1: funny because I was watching the championship game of the

1335
01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:09,040
Speaker 1: Saints and I kept writing down I was, I was

1336
01:04:09,120 --> 01:04:11,760
Speaker 1: looking until twenty two. It basically was nothing but Alvin

1337
01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:14,520
Speaker 1: Kamara and option routes. And I happened to see the

1338
01:04:14,520 --> 01:04:16,480
Speaker 1: other day I was watching some miked up and there

1339
01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:18,680
Speaker 1: was a miked up on the sidelines and John Johnson,

1340
01:04:18,680 --> 01:04:20,800
Speaker 1: the safety for the Rams, is talking to Michael Brockers.

1341
01:04:20,800 --> 01:04:23,520
Speaker 1: He's like, He's like, broh, it's just Kamara what option

1342
01:04:23,600 --> 01:04:25,280
Speaker 1: routes all day? That's all they're doing. It was like,

1343
01:04:25,440 --> 01:04:27,120
Speaker 1: that's all they do. So how they're gonna where's the

1344
01:04:27,160 --> 01:04:29,920
Speaker 1: run game gonna come from? And the Saints have not

1345
01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:33,040
Speaker 1: won a bunch of openers and the level of pressure

1346
01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:36,640
Speaker 1: they're gonna fuel the first game back after the NFC

1347
01:04:36,760 --> 01:04:40,000
Speaker 1: Championship game in that building, last half full oh and

1348
01:04:40,120 --> 01:04:43,640
Speaker 1: DeShawn Watson this offense and get the three guys healthy

1349
01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:46,880
Speaker 1: on at the receiver corps right, hopefully Clowney's gonna be

1350
01:04:46,880 --> 01:04:48,680
Speaker 1: back to give you the three on the defensive line,

1351
01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:50,920
Speaker 1: get enough pass rush, you get a turnover too, and

1352
01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:53,320
Speaker 1: Watson's just on fire, and you win the game. That's

1353
01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:55,800
Speaker 1: glass half all right, Jags at Tech sends the home

1354
01:04:55,880 --> 01:04:59,400
Speaker 1: open or glass half empty. First Nick Foles and the Jags.

1355
01:04:59,480 --> 01:05:03,640
Speaker 1: It's urgical, it's precise, it's not flashy, but it's effective.

1356
01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:06,360
Speaker 1: It's not Blake Bortles. It's not a turnover fest. And

1357
01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:08,400
Speaker 1: they're moving the ball well enough. And then that defense,

1358
01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:11,720
Speaker 1: which was top five in scoring and yards last year,

1359
01:05:12,280 --> 01:05:14,880
Speaker 1: is playing really well at your place. They've done it before,

1360
01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:18,160
Speaker 1: and there you have it. It's a tough day. I

1361
01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:21,480
Speaker 1: can also throw in glass half empty. Leonard Fournette seems

1362
01:05:21,520 --> 01:05:24,280
Speaker 1: to be recharged and he is. You know, look out,

1363
01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:26,680
Speaker 1: it's tired of hearing about it is tired of hearing

1364
01:05:26,680 --> 01:05:28,840
Speaker 1: about it. All right, glass half full, glass half full.

1365
01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:32,000
Speaker 1: For the Texans. J Boyer has been banged up. Think

1366
01:05:32,000 --> 01:05:34,560
Speaker 1: about the defense already. When we face that defense in

1367
01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:37,000
Speaker 1: week seven last year, they will not have Telvin Smith,

1368
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:38,640
Speaker 1: they will not have to Sean Gibson, they will not

1369
01:05:38,680 --> 01:05:40,840
Speaker 1: have Buried Church, they will not have him Ali Jackson,

1370
01:05:40,960 --> 01:05:43,320
Speaker 1: they will not have Dante Fowler. Those are five guys

1371
01:05:43,320 --> 01:05:45,680
Speaker 1: that all started in Week seven against US. Okay, so

1372
01:05:45,760 --> 01:05:48,040
Speaker 1: that defense is you can't call it last year's defense

1373
01:05:48,080 --> 01:05:51,440
Speaker 1: because it's not. And again with Nick Foles. Does he

1374
01:05:51,560 --> 01:05:54,720
Speaker 1: have enough weapons around him to be able to push you?

1375
01:05:54,800 --> 01:05:57,960
Speaker 1: And it's week one for us in that building, sandwiched

1376
01:05:58,000 --> 01:06:00,360
Speaker 1: in between facing breeze and rivers. I don't want to

1377
01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:02,640
Speaker 1: say it's a must win, but play in front of

1378
01:06:02,640 --> 01:06:04,040
Speaker 1: our fans. I think we've got to be able to

1379
01:06:04,080 --> 01:06:05,360
Speaker 1: put on a show and get to win. You got

1380
01:06:05,360 --> 01:06:07,960
Speaker 1: the crowd going, Folds can't get going. You got to

1381
01:06:08,080 --> 01:06:10,600
Speaker 1: have fire breathing dragons on the front. Seven they get

1382
01:06:10,600 --> 01:06:14,640
Speaker 1: after folds, They create havoc, often operate where yeah, home

1383
01:06:14,760 --> 01:06:18,720
Speaker 1: quiet offense can can operate, and you just outscore him.

1384
01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:20,120
Speaker 1: You just find a way to get it done, all right.

1385
01:06:20,200 --> 01:06:22,960
Speaker 1: Week three at the Chargers, at the La Chargers, in

1386
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:27,840
Speaker 1: that bandbox building, glass half empty. It's Philip Rivers. He's

1387
01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:30,240
Speaker 1: got keenan Allen. He's able to move the chains enough.

1388
01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:33,680
Speaker 1: Rivers has up and down days, we know it, but

1389
01:06:33,680 --> 01:06:36,200
Speaker 1: he is one of the best. And he finds a

1390
01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:40,400
Speaker 1: way to move the ball against you. Defensively. Yeah, I

1391
01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:43,800
Speaker 1: know it's not the greatest home field advantage, but San

1392
01:06:43,840 --> 01:06:46,560
Speaker 1: Diego's got weapons. I mean, so they can get after

1393
01:06:46,600 --> 01:06:49,920
Speaker 1: it defensively and make life difficult for your offense. And

1394
01:06:50,000 --> 01:06:51,520
Speaker 1: look a lot of people are picking this team to

1395
01:06:51,520 --> 01:06:53,280
Speaker 1: go to the super Bowl in the AFC. So that's

1396
01:06:53,280 --> 01:06:57,600
Speaker 1: your glass half empty for the Chargers, glass half full.

1397
01:06:57,760 --> 01:07:02,480
Speaker 1: Rivers is old. Melvin Gordon might play yeah, Rivers arm

1398
01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:04,920
Speaker 1: will never fall off, but he is a little bit older.

1399
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:08,920
Speaker 1: And they have no home field advantage. And it's in La.

1400
01:07:09,120 --> 01:07:11,360
Speaker 1: It's in LA. And the traveling Texans, I know they

1401
01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:13,439
Speaker 1: have a lot of that. They have a lot of things,

1402
01:07:13,520 --> 01:07:16,000
Speaker 1: a lot of trips to choose from this year. I mean,

1403
01:07:16,040 --> 01:07:18,080
Speaker 1: you can go broke being a traveling texton this year

1404
01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:20,440
Speaker 1: because there's a lot of options. You have London on

1405
01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:23,280
Speaker 1: the horizon. But they're gonna fill that building. I'm sorry,

1406
01:07:23,280 --> 01:07:26,720
Speaker 1: every Houston fan in LA, in the California you know

1407
01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:30,280
Speaker 1: General Orange County and County Facinity, They're gonna be there,

1408
01:07:32,040 --> 01:07:33,480
Speaker 1: fill that place up. There's gonna be a lot of

1409
01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:35,480
Speaker 1: battle read in there. I can tell you that, all right.

1410
01:07:35,760 --> 01:07:37,880
Speaker 1: So that's glass half full, glass half empty. We're doing

1411
01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:41,360
Speaker 1: the first six games Panthers at the Texans. Glass half

1412
01:07:41,400 --> 01:07:44,680
Speaker 1: empty for the Texans. You got Cam Newton, you got

1413
01:07:44,760 --> 01:07:48,440
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey, you got a lot of things going on here.

1414
01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:50,520
Speaker 1: I know Newton's still ramping up. He's not gonna play

1415
01:07:50,520 --> 01:07:52,600
Speaker 1: in the preseason opener, might not play in the preseason

1416
01:07:52,640 --> 01:07:56,480
Speaker 1: at all, but they still have a good defense. To gosh,

1417
01:07:56,840 --> 01:07:59,480
Speaker 1: that's glass half empty. Yeah, that's glass halfpty half full.

1418
01:07:59,600 --> 01:08:01,240
Speaker 1: You don't know where Cam's going to be with the

1419
01:08:01,240 --> 01:08:04,760
Speaker 1: shoulder situation because it has been it has been a

1420
01:08:04,800 --> 01:08:08,920
Speaker 1: problem that the receivers are still young. They lost Devin Funchius,

1421
01:08:09,000 --> 01:08:11,080
Speaker 1: so not really sure who Cam's gonna throw too if

1422
01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:15,080
Speaker 1: he's not thrown it to McCaffrey. And that I mean defensively,

1423
01:08:15,160 --> 01:08:16,959
Speaker 1: you got to hope that you can attack the secondary

1424
01:08:17,120 --> 01:08:19,200
Speaker 1: right that that's really your hope. Dante Jackson is a

1425
01:08:19,200 --> 01:08:21,439
Speaker 1: guy that's that's really coming along, but I don't know

1426
01:08:21,479 --> 01:08:23,800
Speaker 1: if Bradberry is a guy that can cover. Hopkins are fuller,

1427
01:08:23,880 --> 01:08:25,680
Speaker 1: So I think you gotta be able to attack, but man,

1428
01:08:25,720 --> 01:08:27,120
Speaker 1: you gotta be able to protect to do it, because

1429
01:08:27,120 --> 01:08:29,439
Speaker 1: that front seven is great. But if Cam is not

1430
01:08:29,640 --> 01:08:32,519
Speaker 1: fully one hundred percent, then I think that's where your

1431
01:08:32,520 --> 01:08:37,040
Speaker 1: glass half full is. Okay, we gotta take a break now, sheeez,

1432
01:08:37,280 --> 01:08:39,240
Speaker 1: I want to do Let's do the next couple though.

1433
01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:41,360
Speaker 1: When we get back before Landry's questions we'll do it

1434
01:08:41,479 --> 01:08:43,920
Speaker 1: really quickly. And then Landry's got his Camp Questions, the

1435
01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:47,439
Speaker 1: final edition of Landry Lockers Camp Questions, and I love it.

1436
01:08:47,439 --> 01:08:51,560
Speaker 1: It's Texans Trading Camp Live. This is Whitney Merciless and

1437
01:08:51,680 --> 01:09:02,480
Speaker 1: you're listening to Texans Radio. Don't touch that, do Texans

1438
01:09:02,560 --> 01:09:07,000
Speaker 1: Radio at training camp? Welcome back to Texans Training Camp.

1439
01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:11,920
Speaker 1: Blood All right, quickly here, glass half full, class half empty.

1440
01:09:11,920 --> 01:09:14,160
Speaker 1: We were doing the first six games of the schedule.

1441
01:09:14,520 --> 01:09:16,800
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, the Colts would be seven, right, all right,

1442
01:09:16,880 --> 01:09:21,080
Speaker 1: let's get to seven Falcons at Texans glass half empty.

1443
01:09:21,400 --> 01:09:26,000
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan's really good, can be anyway. Falcons want to

1444
01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:27,320
Speaker 1: get back there. They want to get back to the

1445
01:09:27,320 --> 01:09:29,120
Speaker 1: super Bowl. They played the Super Bowl in that building.

1446
01:09:29,120 --> 01:09:30,519
Speaker 1: They were up twenty eight to three. We all know

1447
01:09:30,520 --> 01:09:33,439
Speaker 1: what happened is that glass half full empty. Julio is

1448
01:09:33,439 --> 01:09:36,880
Speaker 1: the star offense I think is back. Defense is healthy,

1449
01:09:37,080 --> 01:09:40,200
Speaker 1: glass half full. Look, Atlanta the last couple of years

1450
01:09:40,200 --> 01:09:42,679
Speaker 1: has found the middle of the season and melted down.

1451
01:09:43,200 --> 01:09:45,360
Speaker 1: So they gotta go on the road. They're probably better

1452
01:09:45,400 --> 01:09:47,680
Speaker 1: at home than they are on the road. So I

1453
01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:49,960
Speaker 1: think you catch him at a good time. All right,

1454
01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:52,920
Speaker 1: let's go to the Chiefs here. Glass half empty, Mahomes

1455
01:09:53,040 --> 01:09:58,080
Speaker 1: is unbelievable. Tyreek Hill's gonna play. It's a nightmare and Arrowhead.

1456
01:09:58,120 --> 01:10:00,519
Speaker 1: It's a tough place to go. It's a lion den.

1457
01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:03,840
Speaker 1: And they're gonna be better on defense this year. Boy,

1458
01:10:04,040 --> 01:10:08,000
Speaker 1: Glass half full. Uh, they're not gonna They're not gonna

1459
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:09,679
Speaker 1: be able to run the ball on you. Damian Williams

1460
01:10:09,720 --> 01:10:11,479
Speaker 1: has banged up. I don't know how they're gonna run

1461
01:10:11,520 --> 01:10:13,160
Speaker 1: the ball on you. You're gonna be able to eliminate

1462
01:10:13,200 --> 01:10:15,280
Speaker 1: that aspect. Even if you play time the whole game,

1463
01:10:15,320 --> 01:10:16,960
Speaker 1: you'll still be able to take away the run game.

1464
01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:19,760
Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be pretty valuable in that. So

1465
01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:21,720
Speaker 1: they're gonna be throwing if they're gonna be throwing it

1466
01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:25,800
Speaker 1: every down, is that a relief? Yeah? I don't know.

1467
01:10:25,880 --> 01:10:28,840
Speaker 1: But glass half full. You've got de Shan Watson and

1468
01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:31,200
Speaker 1: he's dying to get this one. Yeah. He I mean

1469
01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:33,960
Speaker 1: this is They are gonna be so sky high at

1470
01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:36,519
Speaker 1: both teams for this one. If this were later in

1471
01:10:36,560 --> 01:10:39,800
Speaker 1: the season, you'd say it's a flex game, assuming things

1472
01:10:39,840 --> 01:10:41,679
Speaker 1: are going well for each team. I said to Drew

1473
01:10:41,720 --> 01:10:45,000
Speaker 1: the other day, I said, NBC's gonna watch that game

1474
01:10:45,120 --> 01:10:48,439
Speaker 1: Sunday afternoon and go dad, come it. Yeah, I don't

1475
01:10:48,479 --> 01:10:50,360
Speaker 1: know who they have that night though, all right, quickly

1476
01:10:50,439 --> 01:10:53,760
Speaker 1: Texans had cults glass half well this we just know

1477
01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:58,160
Speaker 1: them so well, glass half empty, Andrew Luck and the

1478
01:10:58,240 --> 01:11:02,840
Speaker 1: Colts and to all pros drafted last year and who

1479
01:11:02,880 --> 01:11:04,800
Speaker 1: knows what else is going to happen this year if

1480
01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:08,160
Speaker 1: they continue to trend in that direction. Glass half empty,

1481
01:11:08,439 --> 01:11:12,800
Speaker 1: glass half full, full glass. The Texas have won three

1482
01:11:12,800 --> 01:11:15,360
Speaker 1: out of last four at Indie. I like that. I

1483
01:11:15,479 --> 01:11:18,880
Speaker 1: like that. And here's another glass half full you've got.

1484
01:11:19,680 --> 01:11:22,479
Speaker 1: It can't happen again, can it? Where they'd like hit

1485
01:11:22,640 --> 01:11:26,280
Speaker 1: home run after home run in the draft and get

1486
01:11:26,360 --> 01:11:29,439
Speaker 1: that much better. It could happen. I mean it could.

1487
01:11:30,160 --> 01:11:32,559
Speaker 1: But you know, Rocky Sin's gonna be a good player.

1488
01:11:32,640 --> 01:11:34,599
Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna be Jalen Ramsey. He's gonna

1489
01:11:34,640 --> 01:11:37,240
Speaker 1: be a good player. So yeah, I mean, you know,

1490
01:11:37,280 --> 01:11:39,360
Speaker 1: they didn't have the top six pick in the draft

1491
01:11:39,439 --> 01:11:41,920
Speaker 1: like like they have with Quenton Nelson and look they

1492
01:11:42,040 --> 01:11:43,920
Speaker 1: knocked it out of the park with Darius Leonard. Rocky

1493
01:11:43,920 --> 01:11:47,040
Speaker 1: Son's gonna be a good player. But they've drafted well,

1494
01:11:47,120 --> 01:11:49,639
Speaker 1: so you've got to hope that you have drafted well too.

1495
01:11:49,680 --> 01:11:52,120
Speaker 1: You know, maybe uh, you know, tyas Howard turns into

1496
01:11:52,120 --> 01:11:54,120
Speaker 1: a player that oh my gosh, we did not see

1497
01:11:54,160 --> 01:11:56,960
Speaker 1: this coming with Titus Howard. Yeah you didn't, but the

1498
01:11:57,000 --> 01:12:00,240
Speaker 1: Texans did so, uh you know, hopefully that's it's the

1499
01:12:00,280 --> 01:12:02,639
Speaker 1: case that, yeah, the Coult draftedwell, you still draftwell too.

1500
01:12:02,840 --> 01:12:05,320
Speaker 1: All right, good stuff, all right, Let's get to Landry Locker,

1501
01:12:05,360 --> 01:12:07,479
Speaker 1: who has his questions of the day for training cap.

1502
01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:09,960
Speaker 1: But we've been really blessed of Landry along the ride

1503
01:12:10,040 --> 01:12:12,639
Speaker 1: along for the ride here during these programs, and Landry

1504
01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:14,760
Speaker 1: what he got for us today, Oh the blessing is mine. John.

1505
01:12:14,760 --> 01:12:17,400
Speaker 1: I read your piece yesterday on Houston Texans dot com

1506
01:12:17,400 --> 01:12:19,599
Speaker 1: and just seeing what's been going on in Green Bay

1507
01:12:19,640 --> 01:12:22,040
Speaker 1: out there, talking to people out there, it seems like

1508
01:12:22,040 --> 01:12:24,360
Speaker 1: the Texans might have a little bit of swagger. There

1509
01:12:24,400 --> 01:12:27,040
Speaker 1: was dancing on the sidelines, they were laying packers out,

1510
01:12:27,240 --> 01:12:29,320
Speaker 1: they were getting a little bit hippy. It seemed like

1511
01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:32,360
Speaker 1: the packers didn't like it. You heard Aaron Rodgers say

1512
01:12:32,400 --> 01:12:35,439
Speaker 1: he hated the practices. Deshaun Watson said he loved them.

1513
01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:38,280
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go from one extreme to the other

1514
01:12:38,320 --> 01:12:40,719
Speaker 1: as we've been known to do. And I'm gonna ask you, guys,

1515
01:12:41,040 --> 01:12:42,960
Speaker 1: is it possible this Texans team is going to be

1516
01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:46,200
Speaker 1: a little bit tougher, a little bit meaner than we anticipated,

1517
01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:48,720
Speaker 1: with a little bit more swagger, or the Packers just

1518
01:12:48,760 --> 01:12:53,519
Speaker 1: straight up soft. I think it actually could be both,

1519
01:12:54,320 --> 01:12:56,640
Speaker 1: to be honest with you, I just I think the

1520
01:12:57,479 --> 01:13:01,080
Speaker 1: Packers with a new coach, I think they're really just

1521
01:13:01,200 --> 01:13:03,280
Speaker 1: minding their p's and ques right now as best they

1522
01:13:03,280 --> 01:13:07,080
Speaker 1: possibly can. And I think, you know, it's funny because

1523
01:13:07,080 --> 01:13:08,920
Speaker 1: people think about Bill O'Brien, they think about the whole

1524
01:13:08,920 --> 01:13:11,559
Speaker 1: Patriots thing. You know, Bill is best when it's just

1525
01:13:11,640 --> 01:13:13,799
Speaker 1: kind of loose and free, and I think the players

1526
01:13:13,880 --> 01:13:17,560
Speaker 1: kind of follow that. So I think if the Texans

1527
01:13:17,600 --> 01:13:21,040
Speaker 1: play loose, they don't play tight, and it feels like

1528
01:13:21,080 --> 01:13:23,120
Speaker 1: they've got a squad that will not do that and

1529
01:13:23,200 --> 01:13:25,439
Speaker 1: won't do that, and hopefully they won't and hopefully learned

1530
01:13:25,479 --> 01:13:27,600
Speaker 1: their lesson in that in that playoff game against the

1531
01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:30,240
Speaker 1: Colts that they've got to they've got to play with that,

1532
01:13:30,320 --> 01:13:32,320
Speaker 1: they've got to play with that swag, as they call it.

1533
01:13:32,320 --> 01:13:33,880
Speaker 1: And I saw that yesterday in a drill, And I

1534
01:13:33,920 --> 01:13:35,640
Speaker 1: mean I had at least three four people come up

1535
01:13:35,640 --> 01:13:38,160
Speaker 1: to me asking me. I was like, did you notice that? John?

1536
01:13:38,160 --> 01:13:40,400
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, I noticed it. And they played

1537
01:13:40,600 --> 01:13:43,960
Speaker 1: walk a flock of Flame Grove Street Party and the

1538
01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:46,040
Speaker 1: offensive players that was down on the offensive side, and

1539
01:13:46,040 --> 01:13:47,920
Speaker 1: that's where I was watching. They were going nuts. I

1540
01:13:47,920 --> 01:13:50,240
Speaker 1: mean it was Stevie Mitchell's He went straight up Dance

1541
01:13:50,280 --> 01:13:53,400
Speaker 1: Party USA and then caught like two passes during that drill,

1542
01:13:53,640 --> 01:13:56,000
Speaker 1: and they went in on two of the first three

1543
01:13:56,040 --> 01:13:58,640
Speaker 1: plays into the end zone and it was it was

1544
01:13:58,640 --> 01:14:00,639
Speaker 1: like it was easy and they were just I mean

1545
01:14:01,600 --> 01:14:05,880
Speaker 1: every catch, every catch was good stuff Stevie, you know,

1546
01:14:05,920 --> 01:14:08,080
Speaker 1: good stuff to Rell. I mean, they support each other.

1547
01:14:08,160 --> 01:14:10,479
Speaker 1: It was really really cool to see. So I actually

1548
01:14:10,520 --> 01:14:12,800
Speaker 1: think Landry might be a little bit of both. You know,

1549
01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:14,400
Speaker 1: a lot of coaches will tell you the more you

1550
01:14:14,439 --> 01:14:18,280
Speaker 1: can have the players hold each other accountable, the better

1551
01:14:18,360 --> 01:14:20,479
Speaker 1: off you are, so you don't have to do it.

1552
01:14:20,760 --> 01:14:23,680
Speaker 1: The players coach the team in a way, right, And

1553
01:14:23,800 --> 01:14:26,439
Speaker 1: obviously that's not gonna happen wholesale, but you want that

1554
01:14:26,479 --> 01:14:29,040
Speaker 1: to be the case where they're lifting each other up,

1555
01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:32,000
Speaker 1: and that's clearly happening here. But you know, who knows

1556
01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:34,280
Speaker 1: where it takes them. I just think the defense, the

1557
01:14:34,320 --> 01:14:37,000
Speaker 1: defense feels like they can be really good. Yes, And

1558
01:14:37,160 --> 01:14:39,559
Speaker 1: that's interesting because we talk about the back end. Is

1559
01:14:39,560 --> 01:14:41,800
Speaker 1: it gonna hold up? Is this gonna happen? That gonna happen.

1560
01:14:41,840 --> 01:14:44,360
Speaker 1: But they're not lacking in confidence, so let's see where

1561
01:14:44,360 --> 01:14:46,360
Speaker 1: that takes them. All right, I need your help on

1562
01:14:46,400 --> 01:14:48,439
Speaker 1: this because I think I'm gonna get hammered today on

1563
01:14:48,560 --> 01:14:51,080
Speaker 1: in the Loop, John Lopez is gonna kill me. But

1564
01:14:51,560 --> 01:14:54,160
Speaker 1: I have a fantasy football draft this week. And I

1565
01:14:54,160 --> 01:14:56,200
Speaker 1: know it's a little bit early, but it's me in

1566
01:14:56,400 --> 01:14:58,840
Speaker 1: thirteen and my buddies that I hardly ever get to see.

1567
01:14:58,840 --> 01:15:01,599
Speaker 1: They're from all over, but they all come in. We've

1568
01:15:01,600 --> 01:15:04,360
Speaker 1: had this league for ten years and it's intense, and

1569
01:15:04,439 --> 01:15:08,360
Speaker 1: I decided everybody's bringing a different dish. But I decided

1570
01:15:08,400 --> 01:15:12,720
Speaker 1: to order some football balloons for this party. And I

1571
01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:15,320
Speaker 1: just I'm already getting dirty. I'm already getting looks over here.

1572
01:15:15,360 --> 01:15:17,320
Speaker 1: But I just got to ask you, guys, what do

1573
01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:20,160
Speaker 1: you think of me ordering football balloons for my fantasy

1574
01:15:20,200 --> 01:15:22,960
Speaker 1: draft party? Okay, first of all, I've got to know

1575
01:15:23,800 --> 01:15:26,720
Speaker 1: a little. I gotta knowe was this in lieu of

1576
01:15:27,120 --> 01:15:29,560
Speaker 1: bringing a dish, a covered dish. Did you do not

1577
01:15:29,680 --> 01:15:31,559
Speaker 1: want to do that or no? No, I'm bringing the

1578
01:15:31,600 --> 01:15:33,639
Speaker 1: dish too. I got the dish too. I'm I'm I'm

1579
01:15:33,640 --> 01:15:36,040
Speaker 1: bringing some I'm bringing some block, and I'm bringing some

1580
01:15:36,040 --> 01:15:38,360
Speaker 1: some other stuff. But I just wanted to bring the

1581
01:15:38,400 --> 01:15:40,240
Speaker 1: balloons because I feel like it makes it a little

1582
01:15:40,240 --> 01:15:42,760
Speaker 1: bit more official. So Lopez thinks it's a man card

1583
01:15:42,800 --> 01:15:47,080
Speaker 1: violation to bring. Yeah, listen, if you've got kids, you've brought,

1584
01:15:47,160 --> 01:15:52,680
Speaker 1: you've probaballoons parties. No, No, it's just guys. It's of

1585
01:15:52,760 --> 01:15:55,080
Speaker 1: my little pony. That's fine, Okay, did you are you

1586
01:15:55,120 --> 01:15:58,439
Speaker 1: bringing it in an ironic sense? No, I'm just trying.

1587
01:15:58,439 --> 01:16:00,280
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to set the scene. I'm trying to

1588
01:16:00,320 --> 01:16:03,680
Speaker 1: make it feel like an event. Uh. Yeah, I'm with

1589
01:16:03,760 --> 01:16:07,040
Speaker 1: John on this one. I don't think it's that big

1590
01:16:07,040 --> 01:16:09,080
Speaker 1: a deal. You know what, land I got act I

1591
01:16:09,120 --> 01:16:11,680
Speaker 1: actually a salute you because it's going the extra mile

1592
01:16:11,720 --> 01:16:14,080
Speaker 1: to make it special. It really is. It's and you

1593
01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:17,200
Speaker 1: know what I mean, John being the man's man and

1594
01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:20,599
Speaker 1: the sportsmen and the outdoorsmen, and you know, taking fish

1595
01:16:20,600 --> 01:16:22,920
Speaker 1: and cleaning their guts out and throwing them on the

1596
01:16:22,960 --> 01:16:25,840
Speaker 1: barbie and all that stuff, having no fear of smelly feet,

1597
01:16:25,920 --> 01:16:30,280
Speaker 1: regardless of how when he didn't wear socks. Right and listen,

1598
01:16:30,479 --> 01:16:32,720
Speaker 1: I would imagine they're gonna be a few pops had, right,

1599
01:16:32,800 --> 01:16:37,639
Speaker 1: I mean consumer sure, So you've got helium balloons and

1600
01:16:37,800 --> 01:16:39,720
Speaker 1: some guys that have had some pops. Oh yeah, you're

1601
01:16:39,720 --> 01:16:41,840
Speaker 1: gonna have that. You're gonna have the helium. You know

1602
01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:47,320
Speaker 1: everybody exactly. That's gonna be fun. That's what she should do,

1603
01:16:47,400 --> 01:16:49,160
Speaker 1: is you should have everybody have to take a hit

1604
01:16:49,240 --> 01:16:51,080
Speaker 1: of helium before they make their pick. Yeah. I have

1605
01:16:51,120 --> 01:16:57,000
Speaker 1: a helium party. And those balloons, by the way, last

1606
01:16:57,040 --> 01:17:01,360
Speaker 1: forever they do those like little Larva. Yeah yeah, I

1607
01:17:01,400 --> 01:17:03,800
Speaker 1: mean I have one from like twenty fifteen that's still

1608
01:17:03,800 --> 01:17:06,639
Speaker 1: floating around the house. I think from a kid's birthday. Uh,

1609
01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:10,320
Speaker 1: it is. It is going the extra step. I'd like it, Landry.

1610
01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:13,519
Speaker 1: I think it's I think it's unique. I'm I'm okay

1611
01:17:13,520 --> 01:17:16,000
Speaker 1: with it. I'm not gonna blast you with it. No,

1612
01:17:16,160 --> 01:17:17,880
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm not gonna write you up in

1613
01:17:17,960 --> 01:17:20,519
Speaker 1: my article tomorrow but and give you props. But I'm

1614
01:17:20,520 --> 01:17:23,680
Speaker 1: okay with it. I think that I very much appreciate that.

1615
01:17:23,720 --> 01:17:26,479
Speaker 1: So I got a little bit of support from you guys.

1616
01:17:26,520 --> 01:17:29,000
Speaker 1: I'm not going to get much support at ten o'clock. Uh.

1617
01:17:29,280 --> 01:17:33,320
Speaker 1: Bill O'Brian mentioned yesterday that the wide receiver battle from

1618
01:17:33,400 --> 01:17:36,760
Speaker 1: four down on the depth chart is wide open. Tell

1619
01:17:36,800 --> 01:17:38,519
Speaker 1: me how this is gonna play out and tell me

1620
01:17:38,600 --> 01:17:41,080
Speaker 1: what we should be looking for tomorrow and as the

1621
01:17:41,120 --> 01:17:46,080
Speaker 1: preseason continues in regards to that battle, well, a lot

1622
01:17:46,120 --> 01:17:48,920
Speaker 1: of it has to do with not just playing wide receiver,

1623
01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:51,679
Speaker 1: but can you be a returner? You know, kick returner

1624
01:17:51,880 --> 01:17:55,760
Speaker 1: is one thing, but I think they're less concerned about

1625
01:17:55,800 --> 01:17:57,920
Speaker 1: that than they are about punt returner. They need to

1626
01:17:57,920 --> 01:18:00,200
Speaker 1: see DeAndre Carter come back and play well at wide

1627
01:18:00,200 --> 01:18:02,280
Speaker 1: receiver because these guys are playing so well that if

1628
01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:06,040
Speaker 1: anybody can remotely I gotta be careful Howard phrases remotely

1629
01:18:06,080 --> 01:18:09,080
Speaker 1: return punts. Now, if they find somebody who can shine

1630
01:18:09,120 --> 01:18:11,840
Speaker 1: as a punt returner, well enough, who's a lot better

1631
01:18:11,880 --> 01:18:14,160
Speaker 1: at receiver, obviously that guy's going to steal the job.

1632
01:18:14,600 --> 01:18:16,800
Speaker 1: And Carter's sitting there helpless because he's not on the

1633
01:18:16,800 --> 01:18:18,880
Speaker 1: field right now, but he's close. He looks close to

1634
01:18:18,920 --> 01:18:21,360
Speaker 1: getting back out there, So I think that has a

1635
01:18:21,400 --> 01:18:23,559
Speaker 1: lot to do with it. He's a proven return guy.

1636
01:18:23,560 --> 01:18:25,840
Speaker 1: He made a big difference when he joined your roster

1637
01:18:25,920 --> 01:18:28,400
Speaker 1: last year. You cannot afford to go through growing pains

1638
01:18:28,560 --> 01:18:30,800
Speaker 1: at punt returner, so he's got to get out there

1639
01:18:30,800 --> 01:18:33,360
Speaker 1: on the field. And it's gonna affect your depth at

1640
01:18:33,360 --> 01:18:35,760
Speaker 1: wide receiver because we all know the big three look.

1641
01:18:35,760 --> 01:18:37,479
Speaker 1: We want to see them healthy. We hope they're healthy

1642
01:18:37,520 --> 01:18:40,240
Speaker 1: for fourteen of the sixteen or sixteen of the sixteen games,

1643
01:18:40,280 --> 01:18:43,320
Speaker 1: but maybe that's not realistic. What did I tell you

1644
01:18:43,439 --> 01:18:47,080
Speaker 1: yesterday about who I would want to see a punt returner?

1645
01:18:47,280 --> 01:18:49,559
Speaker 1: Who did I tell you Mitchell? And who is the

1646
01:18:49,680 --> 01:18:53,679
Speaker 1: number two punt return yesterday returning live punts yesterday? After

1647
01:18:53,800 --> 01:18:57,680
Speaker 1: Kiki Qt, Stephen Mitchell? But why have QT do it

1648
01:18:57,720 --> 01:19:00,160
Speaker 1: at all? You're not gonna do it with Qt. Just

1649
01:19:00,200 --> 01:19:04,360
Speaker 1: that he's just an act. As a coach, You're like, gosh,

1650
01:19:04,360 --> 01:19:07,360
Speaker 1: I gotta see that. I know. But at the same time,

1651
01:19:07,360 --> 01:19:09,160
Speaker 1: he got to be very careful. It's the same reason

1652
01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:10,880
Speaker 1: why you had Will Fuller back there now. Will never

1653
01:19:10,920 --> 01:19:12,960
Speaker 1: got hurt on PARTI. It's so funny because everybody talked

1654
01:19:12,960 --> 01:19:14,680
Speaker 1: about he's gonna get hurt on a part return and

1655
01:19:14,760 --> 01:19:16,559
Speaker 1: Will did not get hurt on a punt return, but

1656
01:19:16,560 --> 01:19:19,200
Speaker 1: they would put him back there in key spots. Yeah,

1657
01:19:19,240 --> 01:19:21,440
Speaker 1: and he would actually he never did it in college,

1658
01:19:21,600 --> 01:19:23,120
Speaker 1: and he would actually do a good job with it.

1659
01:19:23,120 --> 01:19:24,920
Speaker 1: But now you never would think about put him back there.

1660
01:19:24,920 --> 01:19:27,080
Speaker 1: Maybe that's the thought that Kiki evolves out of it

1661
01:19:27,120 --> 01:19:28,559
Speaker 1: at some point, but you gotta have somebody to do it.

1662
01:19:28,800 --> 01:19:30,720
Speaker 1: Stevie Mitchell ends up being one of those guys. And

1663
01:19:30,720 --> 01:19:33,839
Speaker 1: I think Marks right, that special team's part is gonna separate.

1664
01:19:33,880 --> 01:19:35,439
Speaker 1: And I think the tight ends playing too this too.

1665
01:19:35,479 --> 01:19:36,880
Speaker 1: How many you're gonna keep it this? I just don't

1666
01:19:36,920 --> 01:19:40,240
Speaker 1: think you can let Fells go. I really don't. Just

1667
01:19:40,400 --> 01:19:43,640
Speaker 1: everything he offers you. I think it's very difficult to

1668
01:19:43,680 --> 01:19:46,400
Speaker 1: see him go. And Adams on the practice squad. Maybe

1669
01:19:46,960 --> 01:19:48,439
Speaker 1: he's been in the league three years, so I don't

1670
01:19:48,439 --> 01:19:51,320
Speaker 1: know if he's oh that's now the eligibility is different.

1671
01:19:51,600 --> 01:19:55,040
Speaker 1: I know it has practice squad eligibility now probably does.

1672
01:19:55,120 --> 01:19:57,360
Speaker 1: It's crazy. I don't want him, but it's a it's

1673
01:19:57,360 --> 01:19:59,679
Speaker 1: a fuck. This is a fun position group to watch

1674
01:19:59,720 --> 01:20:01,479
Speaker 1: tie then it's fun to watch. I mean, either of

1675
01:20:01,520 --> 01:20:03,679
Speaker 1: the story lives were following. How do the corners look

1676
01:20:03,920 --> 01:20:05,960
Speaker 1: are they going to pick up another corner. I mean,

1677
01:20:06,120 --> 01:20:08,080
Speaker 1: there are a lot of different things to follow, and

1678
01:20:08,080 --> 01:20:09,840
Speaker 1: that's what you do in the preseason. It's not about

1679
01:20:09,880 --> 01:20:12,720
Speaker 1: wins and losses. As you know, Landry, all right, we

1680
01:20:12,760 --> 01:20:16,160
Speaker 1: got the Texans Packers tomorrow right here on Sports Radio

1681
01:20:16,240 --> 01:20:19,479
Speaker 1: STAX ten. Looking forward to hearing how you're sounding, Vandy.

1682
01:20:19,520 --> 01:20:21,000
Speaker 1: I know, I know you got to find your groove

1683
01:20:21,160 --> 01:20:24,440
Speaker 1: just like the players. But we're gonna see some traditional

1684
01:20:24,600 --> 01:20:26,960
Speaker 1: uniforms with the Green Bay Packers, which leads me to

1685
01:20:26,960 --> 01:20:31,000
Speaker 1: ask this question to YouTube football historians, what is the

1686
01:20:31,120 --> 01:20:34,639
Speaker 1: best uniform in the NFL? And you cannot say anything Texans.

1687
01:20:34,960 --> 01:20:39,479
Speaker 1: It's not this, It's not the Packers. Okay, the best

1688
01:20:39,600 --> 01:20:43,200
Speaker 1: uniform in the NFL to me is the Steelers. I

1689
01:20:43,280 --> 01:20:47,439
Speaker 1: think the Steelers. There's something about that and maybe it

1690
01:20:47,439 --> 01:20:48,840
Speaker 1: has a lot to do with when you were a

1691
01:20:48,960 --> 01:20:52,920
Speaker 1: kid and who was really good, you know, but they

1692
01:20:53,840 --> 01:20:57,160
Speaker 1: just have this mystique. You know. It's funny, guys, because

1693
01:20:57,439 --> 01:20:59,320
Speaker 1: when we're in the booth and watching the other team

1694
01:20:59,320 --> 01:21:03,080
Speaker 1: warm up, there are certain teams that just pop right

1695
01:21:03,320 --> 01:21:06,280
Speaker 1: when you're watching them warm up, Like I still the Raiders.

1696
01:21:06,360 --> 01:21:08,960
Speaker 1: You know, you're looking at those are the Oakland Raiders

1697
01:21:09,320 --> 01:21:12,599
Speaker 1: Vegas warming up on the field. There's something about that.

1698
01:21:12,640 --> 01:21:16,040
Speaker 1: There's something about the traditional unis that really kind of

1699
01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:19,280
Speaker 1: gets your blood going. Uh, look, the Cowboys get my

1700
01:21:19,280 --> 01:21:21,120
Speaker 1: blood going. But for all the other reasons, you know,

1701
01:21:21,160 --> 01:21:22,920
Speaker 1: I just want to see them. You can't say that. Yeah,

1702
01:21:23,080 --> 01:21:25,120
Speaker 1: you can't know. I don't think they have the best

1703
01:21:25,200 --> 01:21:29,320
Speaker 1: uniform at all. Those pants, Are you kidding? Cowboys? No? No

1704
01:21:29,200 --> 01:21:32,599
Speaker 1: No way? No. Number one is the Packers. Number two

1705
01:21:32,640 --> 01:21:36,800
Speaker 1: is the Steelers? Number three? What the yellow? The blue

1706
01:21:36,840 --> 01:21:40,240
Speaker 1: and yellow? La Rams, blue and yellow the one. Aren't

1707
01:21:40,240 --> 01:21:41,960
Speaker 1: they going to the white this year? Are they? I

1708
01:21:42,200 --> 01:21:46,760
Speaker 1: know I can't. They don't thee and white? No, no,

1709
01:21:47,560 --> 01:21:49,920
Speaker 1: the blue and yellow with the ram horn on this.

1710
01:21:50,040 --> 01:21:52,640
Speaker 1: I thought they're going to white. I thought I saw that. Well,

1711
01:21:52,680 --> 01:21:55,400
Speaker 1: we're gonna see them at RG State the preseason because

1712
01:21:55,400 --> 01:21:57,719
Speaker 1: that's the third best jersey. The Packers are the best Steelers.

1713
01:21:57,840 --> 01:22:00,040
Speaker 1: Here's another one. And I don't like their team, but

1714
01:22:00,080 --> 01:22:02,080
Speaker 1: I think it's a cool uniform as the forty nine ers.

1715
01:22:02,479 --> 01:22:04,040
Speaker 1: I think that has a lot of tradition, and I

1716
01:22:04,160 --> 01:22:07,160
Speaker 1: like the fact that they really haven't the changes have

1717
01:22:07,280 --> 01:22:09,920
Speaker 1: been so subtle. I like the Dolphins too, because it's

1718
01:22:10,000 --> 01:22:13,240
Speaker 1: so great for the error Dolphin retro jerseys that they

1719
01:22:13,320 --> 01:22:15,080
Speaker 1: wore in the game against the Patriots when they won

1720
01:22:15,120 --> 01:22:19,439
Speaker 1: on the Hill, Mary play by Drake. Those the aqua

1721
01:22:19,560 --> 01:22:24,680
Speaker 1: those are nice. Those are beautiful. The seventies aqua very

1722
01:22:25,080 --> 01:22:28,400
Speaker 1: those are awesome. Those I mean I have, Landry, I

1723
01:22:28,640 --> 01:22:32,519
Speaker 1: lean a lot towards seventies and eighties classic, So that's

1724
01:22:32,560 --> 01:22:34,479
Speaker 1: why I like the Rams and the Dolphins jerseys. But

1725
01:22:34,920 --> 01:22:37,599
Speaker 1: Steelers Packers are probably the two. If I can't say now,

1726
01:22:37,680 --> 01:22:39,439
Speaker 1: I've always liked blue and white, but I will never

1727
01:22:39,560 --> 01:22:41,280
Speaker 1: tell you that I like the cult uni. I could

1728
01:22:41,280 --> 01:22:43,439
Speaker 1: tell you this, guys, if I lived, if I was

1729
01:22:43,479 --> 01:22:47,519
Speaker 1: a Packer fan, I would get those Acme Packer those

1730
01:22:47,680 --> 01:22:50,439
Speaker 1: that kind of gives sweet the Acme Packers. That's what

1731
01:22:50,520 --> 01:22:53,360
Speaker 1: I'd be wearing. Nothing else, just Acme Packers because I

1732
01:22:53,439 --> 01:22:56,360
Speaker 1: just love that. But I'm not gonna do it, Landry,

1733
01:22:56,400 --> 01:22:59,120
Speaker 1: what's yours? I would say, you guys are gonna both

1734
01:22:59,200 --> 01:23:01,200
Speaker 1: kill me. I think the Boys blues are nice. I

1735
01:23:01,280 --> 01:23:03,400
Speaker 1: think the Cowboys when they put on those dark blue,

1736
01:23:03,439 --> 01:23:07,000
Speaker 1: the dark they're pretty good uniforms. Really. I think they

1737
01:23:07,080 --> 01:23:10,000
Speaker 1: look good interesting. But Raiders blacks are up there too.

1738
01:23:10,160 --> 01:23:12,240
Speaker 1: Raiders Blacks. I'm not a fan of the Packers, but

1739
01:23:12,680 --> 01:23:15,800
Speaker 1: I would say the Raiders Blacks, the Cowboys Blues are

1740
01:23:15,880 --> 01:23:18,200
Speaker 1: are up there. The Browns uniforms. Can we just be honest.

1741
01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:22,759
Speaker 1: Those are the earliest things in sports. They're the absolute worst.

1742
01:23:22,880 --> 01:23:26,840
Speaker 1: They're so awful. And it's funny because the Patriots people say,

1743
01:23:26,920 --> 01:23:30,040
Speaker 1: oh I love that old retro Patriot with pat Patriots

1744
01:23:30,080 --> 01:23:32,000
Speaker 1: snapping the ball on the side of the helmet. No,

1745
01:23:32,160 --> 01:23:35,000
Speaker 1: you don't. I lived there. People hated that stuff. They

1746
01:23:35,040 --> 01:23:37,840
Speaker 1: were begging for uniform changes, please change it. And now

1747
01:23:37,880 --> 01:23:40,360
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, I love that look. The best jersey

1748
01:23:40,400 --> 01:23:43,320
Speaker 1: of all time. The best jersey of all time is

1749
01:23:43,600 --> 01:23:47,280
Speaker 1: the early to mid sixties San Diego Chargers powder Blues.

1750
01:23:47,400 --> 01:23:49,479
Speaker 1: He's the best jersey of all time, and there's no debate.

1751
01:23:49,840 --> 01:23:52,160
Speaker 1: It is the best. The lance all with number nineteen

1752
01:23:52,160 --> 01:23:54,760
Speaker 1: powder blue is the best look that that was. That

1753
01:23:54,880 --> 01:23:56,599
Speaker 1: was my out of a doubt, that was my team

1754
01:23:56,640 --> 01:23:58,599
Speaker 1: when when I was coming of age in football, right

1755
01:23:58,640 --> 01:24:00,200
Speaker 1: with damn fouts and everything. But the one thing I

1756
01:24:00,240 --> 01:24:02,360
Speaker 1: don't like about the Chargers is when the logo is

1757
01:24:02,680 --> 01:24:05,080
Speaker 1: stationed like on a sheet of paper. It's curve. The

1758
01:24:05,240 --> 01:24:08,040
Speaker 1: lightning bolt is curved like it is on the helmet. No, no, no, no,

1759
01:24:08,320 --> 01:24:10,880
Speaker 1: just have a straight lightning bolt. We get it. That is,

1760
01:24:11,080 --> 01:24:13,679
Speaker 1: since it's on a helmet, it's curved. But that shouldn't

1761
01:24:13,720 --> 01:24:16,879
Speaker 1: be the logo, your curved lightning bolt. But the uniforms

1762
01:24:16,880 --> 01:24:19,479
Speaker 1: are awesome. I mean, lightning bolts are just so awesome.

1763
01:24:19,520 --> 01:24:21,240
Speaker 1: And why does Air Force have lightning bolts on the

1764
01:24:21,360 --> 01:24:25,040
Speaker 1: uniform if they never throw the football? That's what? And

1765
01:24:25,200 --> 01:24:30,160
Speaker 1: how come Air Force a team that represents a branch

1766
01:24:30,240 --> 01:24:34,200
Speaker 1: of the Armed services, that Armed forces that flies, Why

1767
01:24:34,240 --> 01:24:36,479
Speaker 1: do they always run the ball? They should be throwing

1768
01:24:36,560 --> 01:24:38,920
Speaker 1: the ball. That's good markets. I feel like that's all

1769
01:24:39,160 --> 01:24:42,760
Speaker 1: Armed Forces thing. No, yeah, I know, because you have

1770
01:24:43,040 --> 01:24:45,800
Speaker 1: what you have, you know exactly. I mean Air Force

1771
01:24:45,880 --> 01:24:47,320
Speaker 1: back in the eighties when they were running a flex

1772
01:24:47,360 --> 01:24:49,280
Speaker 1: bonbe with can half field, they would fly up and

1773
01:24:49,320 --> 01:24:52,559
Speaker 1: down the field. Yeah, the running. Yeah, they flew up

1774
01:24:52,600 --> 01:24:55,479
Speaker 1: and down a field. Throw the ball, Johnny, it's good

1775
01:24:55,479 --> 01:24:58,560
Speaker 1: for recruitment. You don't like the option? Yeah? What do

1776
01:24:58,600 --> 01:25:00,439
Speaker 1: you have coming up on in the loop today? We

1777
01:25:00,520 --> 01:25:02,320
Speaker 1: got a lot. We're gonna get into the question of

1778
01:25:02,400 --> 01:25:04,680
Speaker 1: whether the Texans have more swagger than we thought, or

1779
01:25:04,680 --> 01:25:07,320
Speaker 1: if the Packers are soft, we're gonna talk about the Astros.

1780
01:25:07,360 --> 01:25:10,680
Speaker 1: We're gonna plan out the uh the victory parade with

1781
01:25:10,800 --> 01:25:13,080
Speaker 1: the Astros, because there's just really just doesn't appear to

1782
01:25:13,160 --> 01:25:15,760
Speaker 1: be any way that they that they lose the o G.

1783
01:25:15,960 --> 01:25:18,840
Speaker 1: John Lopez has three things that he knows and I'm

1784
01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:21,440
Speaker 1: probably gonna get made fun of because I think Balloon's

1785
01:25:21,479 --> 01:25:23,559
Speaker 1: had a lot of character to a party. But apparently

1786
01:25:23,920 --> 01:25:26,840
Speaker 1: you have to have a woman or child in in

1787
01:25:27,880 --> 01:25:30,360
Speaker 1: uh in the building for that to be appropriate, according

1788
01:25:30,439 --> 01:25:33,600
Speaker 1: to uh the Cromudgeon John Lopez. I do, I do

1789
01:25:33,800 --> 01:25:36,320
Speaker 1: see his point there, but I think that it says

1790
01:25:36,320 --> 01:25:39,160
Speaker 1: a lot about you and and you're the depth of you.

1791
01:25:40,680 --> 01:25:42,040
Speaker 1: Hold on, he didn't give you the whole He didn't

1792
01:25:42,040 --> 01:25:44,640
Speaker 1: give you the whole story. This is that his fantasy

1793
01:25:44,800 --> 01:25:50,320
Speaker 1: football draft he's taking. We discussed it. We discussed I mean,

1794
01:25:50,560 --> 01:25:52,680
Speaker 1: I thought he's going the extra step, and I think

1795
01:25:52,840 --> 01:25:55,479
Speaker 1: the extra step is more beer. Is he is he

1796
01:25:55,560 --> 01:25:58,400
Speaker 1: trying to impress a woman though like there's no women there,

1797
01:25:58,920 --> 01:26:02,800
Speaker 1: I know? Is he getting in touch with his feminine side? Well?

1798
01:26:02,840 --> 01:26:06,680
Speaker 1: I think that's I mean, that's okay, that's okay to

1799
01:26:06,760 --> 01:26:10,920
Speaker 1: be it works for people mostly when there's feminine around. Look,

1800
01:26:11,000 --> 01:26:13,920
Speaker 1: not everybody is like you know, you're like a modern

1801
01:26:14,000 --> 01:26:18,439
Speaker 1: day Ricardo montal Bomb. Okay, you know fine Corinthian Leather,

1802
01:26:18,640 --> 01:26:22,000
Speaker 1: John Lopez, So, I mean, I get it from you,

1803
01:26:22,360 --> 01:26:24,240
Speaker 1: but not everybody can be like you. We have to

1804
01:26:24,280 --> 01:26:26,160
Speaker 1: get in touch with our feminine side to just you know,

1805
01:26:26,240 --> 01:26:27,880
Speaker 1: I was in touch with the female. I was gonna

1806
01:26:27,880 --> 01:26:30,240
Speaker 1: take balloons to a fantasy football party once, but then

1807
01:26:30,280 --> 01:26:34,840
Speaker 1: I remembered it wasn't a chick. Okay, we'll let you

1808
01:26:34,960 --> 01:26:40,400
Speaker 1: guys fight it. That's the channeling Brian Cushing that has

1809
01:26:40,479 --> 01:26:44,120
Speaker 1: dropped the mic og bang. And it is interesting with

1810
01:26:44,200 --> 01:26:47,000
Speaker 1: the Astros. They are incapable of losing. It's funny to

1811
01:26:47,120 --> 01:26:49,240
Speaker 1: have a team that like they cannot lose, Like, no

1812
01:26:49,320 --> 01:26:51,160
Speaker 1: matter what we do, We're gonna trade for a guy

1813
01:26:51,320 --> 01:26:53,760
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be a monumental deal. Oh but he's

1814
01:26:53,800 --> 01:26:55,400
Speaker 1: gonna have a bad night and it's not gonna matter

1815
01:26:55,479 --> 01:26:58,320
Speaker 1: anyway because we're there. I don't know how to handle

1816
01:26:58,760 --> 01:27:01,880
Speaker 1: being so confident with the Houston team. I mean, I'm

1817
01:27:01,920 --> 01:27:04,599
Speaker 1: being dead serious. I'm like so confident they're gonna win

1818
01:27:04,600 --> 01:27:06,439
Speaker 1: the world series. They're gonna win the World Series, no problem.

1819
01:27:06,600 --> 01:27:09,920
Speaker 1: I don't. I've never uttered things like that for Houston teams.

1820
01:27:10,439 --> 01:27:13,360
Speaker 1: But the thing about that is they are so good

1821
01:27:13,800 --> 01:27:16,320
Speaker 1: yet you know how it is in baseball, it's like, hey, yeah,

1822
01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:17,800
Speaker 1: the night like he had last night, and all of

1823
01:27:17,800 --> 01:27:20,360
Speaker 1: a sudden you're facing a good picture and you can't

1824
01:27:20,400 --> 01:27:22,720
Speaker 1: get it going or something, and then you know, one

1825
01:27:22,840 --> 01:27:25,120
Speaker 1: bad game in a series can just ruin the whole thing.

1826
01:27:25,280 --> 01:27:28,000
Speaker 1: But we've seen that before. Anyway, that's gonna do it

1827
