1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,960
Speaker 1: Ds go in front. There is no off season for

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:07,880
Speaker 1: your Abuston Texans. Game day is every day. We had

3
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:09,280
Speaker 1: a lot of energy and we brought a lot of

4
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 1: spark for this organization. Five nights a week. They hits

5
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:18,040
Speaker 1: keep on coming on the Texas say they have it,

6
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:24,759
Speaker 1: they go, No, it's Texans All Excess. That's right, you

7
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 1: heard the man. It is Texans All Access dot dot

8
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 1: dot from the crib. Yeah, I think we should put

9
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:36,320
Speaker 1: that in to our our lead ins and to our bumpbacks.

10
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:41,279
Speaker 1: The Texans All Access shows from the house. Yes, I'm

11
00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 1: doing it from my house, which I would tell you

12
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 1: where it is, but I'm trying to be socially distanced

13
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 1: from everyone at this point. Well, you know where my

14
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: house is. During the season. It's right there on Kirby Drive.

15
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 1: It's big old Energy stadium. But it is not tonight,

16
00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: as it hasn't been for the last three months. It's

17
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 1: in my house and I have John Harris, football analyst

18
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 1: and the sideline reporter for your Houston Texans, And as

19
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: I said yesterday, we are going to treat this week

20
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 1: as sort of a celebration of what we've been able

21
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 1: to give to you from our Texans from coaches, from

22
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: players to members of our organization. Figured we'd do that

23
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 1: during this week and a lead up to July fourth,

24
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: and then once we get into July, then it's all

25
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,959
Speaker 1: about getting ready for the season. Listen, I know what

26
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 1: you're gonna say, just like everybody else. But if there

27
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 1: isn't a season, but now you can do about that.

28
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: We just have to start getting ready for it. And

29
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 1: when the NFL decides we're not doing it or that

30
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 1: we are, we are ready either way. So in a celebration,

31
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 1: if you will, of voices that we heard throughout our

32
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 1: off season, essentially from the time that Mark and I

33
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: took the shows to the house until now, we've caught

34
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 1: up with a lot of different people. Well, tonight's show

35
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 1: is going to be about coaches and keyon. That sounds

36
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 1: kind of good. I like that the alliteration, although spelled

37
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:16,079
Speaker 1: totally differently, coaches with a C, keyon with a K.

38
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,519
Speaker 1: You get the point, the alliteration being that they sound alike,

39
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 1: even though not spelled alike. But we're gonna hear from

40
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 1: two coordinators. Don't know who the special teams coordinators is

41
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:31,079
Speaker 1: gonna be. The Texans are working on that as we speak.

42
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: They're going through the interview process after Brad Seeley retired,

43
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 1: and we'll see what ends up happening with the special

44
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 1: teams coordinator spot. But we know this year that two

45
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: coordinators that have not called place for NFL teams during games,

46
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 1: or at least haven't done it consistently, are Anthony Weaver

47
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: and Tim Kelly. Anthony Weaver behind rack Romeo Cornell, who

48
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: called the ball place here from the time he got

49
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: in your twenty fourteen minus twenty seventeen when Mike took

50
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: over for a year, and Tim Kelly has been the

51
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator this now his second year. But Bill O'Brien

52
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 1: called plays in twenty nineteen. Tim Kelly will call the

53
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 1: place in twenty twenty, marking a chance to catch up

54
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: with both of them. So we will hear from both

55
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: Tim Kelly and Anthony Weaver on this show, and we

56
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 1: will also catch up with Keion Crossing. Now, if you

57
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: don't know Keyon Crossing, well, it's not surprising in some

58
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:33,679
Speaker 1: sense because Keion traded to the Texans in that whirlwind,

59
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 1: that flurry of activity that took place after the Texans

60
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 1: fourth preseason game as we got ready to take on

61
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 1: the Saints and the opener. In twenty nineteen, Keyon was

62
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 1: traded from the Patriots to the Texans and I had

63
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 1: a chance during year to talk to Kean at a

64
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: couple different times, and he is fabulous. He is a

65
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: really fun guy to talk to. He's doing a lot

66
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 1: this soft season. So dpcity had a chance to catch

67
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: up with Keion crossing, which I believe. I believe that

68
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 1: we have not played this interview for you, so that

69
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: will be new. In fact, all these interviews, even though

70
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: we heard from Anthony Weaver, we heard from Tim Kelly,

71
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 1: I don't think we played these interviews fully in full

72
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: for you. Keyon's with DPE and Marks with both Tim

73
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 1: Kelly and Anthony we were that were done for our

74
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 1: season ticket members. So we have all of that. Let's

75
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 1: start with Tim Kelly and Mark had a chance to

76
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: catch up with him on this season ticket member call

77
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: and relay questions from fans a lot of fans have

78
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: been thinking about. Of course, Mark, being a season ticket member,

79
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,719
Speaker 1: decided he needed to get in on the action as well,

80
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,920
Speaker 1: so he gets a question in for Tim Kelly. But

81
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 1: this was great stuff and of course when Coach did

82
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: the interview, he wanted to see how coach was holding

83
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 1: up during all of this COVID nineteen shelter in place,

84
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: stay at home sort of coaching that they were having

85
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: to do during the months of March April May, and Jim, Yeah,

86
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: I mean personally, the first thing that comes up is

87
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: is really, uh, it kind of gives you a new

88
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,840
Speaker 1: appreciation for all the work that that my wife does

89
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 1: at home, being at home with with these with these

90
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,840
Speaker 1: uh two kids, it's it's it's a you know, an

91
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 1: eye opener and see what they go through, you know,

92
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: during the season because I'm gone and I don't you know,

93
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 1: I hardly see him unless it's on the weekend. So

94
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: being able to see here kind of do her thing here,

95
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 1: it's it's been pretty cool. As far as being, you know,

96
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 1: coaching the guys, it's it's really a unique situation having

97
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,159
Speaker 1: to do everything virtually, um, you know, being and being

98
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: able to have all this interaction, uh, you know with

99
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: our guys via zoom and in the different mediums that

100
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 1: we have on our computers and laptops and tablets and whatnot. Um,

101
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: It's it's really been unique, and it's been interesting to

102
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 1: see how those guys have adjusted have really taken to it.

103
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,279
Speaker 1: It seems these days everybody seems to be more comfortable

104
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: in front of a screen. So this is kind of

105
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,160
Speaker 1: really providing them there, they're safe spaces, if you will,

106
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 1: to kind of come out and uh and and really

107
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: really do a good job communicating with one another and

108
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: with us as coaches. Yeah, we've all become television personalities

109
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: in the last few weeks. All right, let's get to

110
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: some questions here from the season ticket members, and Donald

111
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 1: is up first, and he goes right to it. How

112
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,840
Speaker 1: might the offense look different in twenty twenty what we

113
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 1: know about some of the new guys, And I would

114
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: imagine you've been very creative already trying to figure out

115
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 1: ways to mix the man But what do you think

116
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,600
Speaker 1: of the offense overall going into the season. Yeah, I

117
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 1: mean every year is different, right, So every year there's

118
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 1: going to be new players, and um, for us, it's

119
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,599
Speaker 1: it's always going to be about trying to put those

120
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: new pieces in a position to take advantage of what

121
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,599
Speaker 1: the defense gives us. So, you know, how can we

122
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 1: find different ways to utilize Duke and David and Brandon,

123
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: Randall and Wale and Kenny and Kiki and DeAndre, and

124
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 1: and Fells and Khale and Akins and Thomas. I mean

125
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: the list goes on. So you know, sitting here and

126
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 1: being able to name that many names is a good thing.

127
00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,120
Speaker 1: So we have we have a lot of people who

128
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 1: have made plays in this league and it's really going

129
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 1: to be up to us to try and put them

130
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 1: in positions to be successful. Next question is from Adrian.

131
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: What excites you the most about the upcoming season? I

132
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: think you just answered part of that, but also the schedule.

133
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 1: I mean, there's so much to look forward here, look

134
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: forward to, and you mentioned the guys you have, coach,

135
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,559
Speaker 1: it's not just about how you fit them into whatever

136
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 1: you want to do. It's adapting to the defenses you're

137
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 1: gonna play, right, Yeah, you know, everything that we do

138
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 1: is going to be, you know, predicated on trying to

139
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: again take advantage of the issues that we may see

140
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 1: going against the defense. So u having the different versatile

141
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: pieces that are going to allow us to be creative

142
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: is definitely exciting. You know, starting off the season to

143
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 1: Narrowhead on Thursday night that that's always you know, an

144
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 1: exciting opportunity. And then being able you know to play

145
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: some teams that we may not have played for a

146
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: few years. You know, me personally going back home to

147
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 1: Chicago or something that I'm excited form. And then you know,

148
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 1: going and having the past come here in Minnesota come here.

149
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 1: So you know, personally speaking, selfishly speaking, those were all

150
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 1: teams that I, you know, was very familiar with when

151
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: I was growing up, being you know, coming from the

152
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 1: South suburbs of Chicago. So being able to play those

153
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: guys is always kind of the exciting for me, especially

154
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 1: because it doesn't happen very often. Yeah, we'll have some

155
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 1: more specific questions about that coming up here, but let's

156
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 1: go to Giles question. Please discuss your transition from a

157
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 1: defensive player to go into the offensive side of the

158
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 1: ball as a coach. Because you played defense in college

159
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 1: at Eastern Illinois. How does that help you if at

160
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 1: all coaching offense. Sure it helps me because I always

161
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 1: look at what we're doing from a defensive standpoint, So

162
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,559
Speaker 1: I always trying to put myself in a position nowhere,

163
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,199
Speaker 1: like what would I think if I saw this happen?

164
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 1: How would I react if I saw this happen? So

165
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 1: as far as the transition from a defensive coach and

166
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: offensive coach. It really happened, you know, when when I

167
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 1: made the transition into the NFL. I worked with coach

168
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: of for two seasons and he had always told me

169
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,840
Speaker 1: that he saw, you know, the possibility of me having

170
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: some potential work on the offensive side of the ball,

171
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 1: even when I was at at Penn State on the

172
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: defensive side. So um, you know, when when the opportunity

173
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 1: came and he said, hey, I'd like you to work

174
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 1: on offense, I you know, said absolutely anything I can

175
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: do to coach in the NFL. So um, yeah, it was.

176
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: It was a difficult transition. It was one of the

177
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 1: hardest things I've ever had to do, but it's it's

178
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: obviously something that that was worthwhile and is paid off,

179
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: all right. Next question is from Fred Joe section three

180
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: fifty three row R. He did not put his seat number,

181
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 1: but section three fifty three. Many NFL teams have converted

182
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: to an up tempo style. This is a long question,

183
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 1: sometimes avoiding a traditional huddle. Is this a possibility for

184
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: twenty twenty Now, you guys do this from time to time.

185
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 1: You go no huddle, you go up tempo, or you

186
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 1: have that little brief muddle huddle or you take the snap, right, Yeah, sure,

187
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,440
Speaker 1: I think again, it kind of goes back into how

188
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 1: how you want to play the game, and and and

189
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 1: what are we going to do as an offense that

190
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 1: that will put us in the best position to win. So, um,

191
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 1: if that, you know, if if we decide throughout the

192
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: week that playing fast is going to be something that's

193
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: going to put us in the best position to win. Uh,

194
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 1: you know, you can bet that we're going to be

195
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: playing faster that week. It's something where we may want

196
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 1: to huddle more and slow the game down and that's gonna,

197
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: you know, put us in the best position to win. Uh.

198
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 1: That that's something that that obviously we will do more

199
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 1: so to win the game. But everything that we're going

200
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 1: to do as an offense is is going to be

201
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,679
Speaker 1: you know, pointed towards winning. It's going to put our

202
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 1: team in the best position to win. All Right, more

203
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: questions here from the season ticket members. Mike, is there

204
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 1: a chance that Johnson squared both Johnson's will be in

205
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: the same backfield together. You put Duke and David in

206
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,199
Speaker 1: the backfield together. You did that a little bit with

207
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 1: Carlos Hide and Duke Johnson last year. What do you

208
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,960
Speaker 1: think this season, coach. Yeah, again, when you have virtual

209
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: players that that can you know, offer different skill sets

210
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 1: and do a number of different things, it allows you

211
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 1: to get creative and use them in different ways. So yeah,

212
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 1: you know, I think we're always going to do things

213
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:07,839
Speaker 1: to try and take advantage of the skill sets of

214
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 1: our players. You've been doing so much classroom work on

215
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 1: Zoom or however you do it digitally, and you don't

216
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,359
Speaker 1: get the chance to try those things out in OTAs

217
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: if you're on the field right now. So I guess

218
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: that's going to put a premium on those training camp

219
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,079
Speaker 1: reps you can get to get this offense up to

220
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 1: speed for the absolutely absolutely, and I think, you know,

221
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: referring that to a coach of Brian set about being

222
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 1: a veteran year, because again, we're going to really have

223
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 1: to hit the ground running when we get together in August.

224
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,200
Speaker 1: It's not going to have the however many OTAs and

225
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,559
Speaker 1: training camp practices and you know, coaching sessions that we

226
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:45,439
Speaker 1: would have, you know, if we were under more normal circumstances.

227
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 1: So yeah, those those training camp practices are going to

228
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: be at a premium. Next question is from Pamela, what's

229
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 1: your offensive philosophy, and how does it translate to your

230
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 1: working relationship with Dashawan? And I guess I'll layer on

231
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,199
Speaker 1: top of that as well, how is your working relationship

232
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 1: with the Sean? You guys have spent a lot of

233
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,959
Speaker 1: time together. Yeah, you know, and obviously, like right now,

234
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 1: it's all it's all on a zoom or you know,

235
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: the virtually, So I'm sure he's sick of hearing my

236
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 1: voice for the past however many weeks. But um, yeah,

237
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 1: the relationship that I had with the Sean has been

238
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 1: has been really really good. So and encouraged by that. Um.

239
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 1: And then what was the first part of the question again,

240
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 1: it was the philosophy at your offense. So for us,

241
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: we're as an offense, we're going to make sure that

242
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:33,959
Speaker 1: that we want to be as detailed as we can

243
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 1: be in terms of our assignments, um, you know, the

244
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,959
Speaker 1: different techniques that we that we want to use, and

245
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 1: basically understanding that the whole offense, you want to be

246
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 1: disciplined in our ability to go out and execute those techniques, um,

247
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,839
Speaker 1: and and eliminate bad football. And then we're we're we're

248
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: gonna want to be aggressive and attack the defense. Um,

249
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 1: you know, obviously that's going to change week by week

250
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 1: and do whatever we can to put, you know, the

251
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 1: team in the best position to win. Okay, and Jerry

252
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 1: has a question, what is it like coaching against your brother,

253
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: your brother Dannis, who plays for the titles. Sure, yeah,

254
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: that's always you know, we played in twice a year,

255
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: so that's always kind of a unique situation. Um. I

256
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 1: think it's probably harder for my mom than it is

257
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,079
Speaker 1: for Dennis or I. You know, we we both grew

258
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 1: up so competitive that, you know, we were used to

259
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 1: trying to make you know, win so the other one

260
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 1: would lose since we were you know, four or five,

261
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 1: six years old. So that's really nothing new to our relationship.

262
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 1: You know, if you were to put a video game

263
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 1: or or a board game, you know, risk as big

264
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: as our in our house. If you if you put

265
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 1: us in front of a risk board, we're going to

266
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 1: do everything we can to try and make sure that

267
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 1: that we win and the other one loses. So I

268
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: think it's more of a strain on my mom. I

269
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 1: think it puts her in a tough spot. I think

270
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 1: she's obviously very proud um, but yet at the end

271
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 1: of the day, it's a you know, someone's going home

272
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 1: happy and someone someone's going home said, and so I

273
00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 1: think it's tougher for her than it is for us.

274
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,320
Speaker 1: So we have another question from a season ticket member me.

275
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 1: I'm not only the announcer, I'm a season ticket member

276
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,240
Speaker 1: Eastern Illinois. You're alma mater. I mean, and you mentioned

277
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: the Bears game. How special is it gonna be to

278
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 1: coach in Soldier Field for the first time ever. You're

279
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 1: gonna be a professional. They're doing your thing in that place.

280
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: And also, layer on, what about Eastern Illinois? All these

281
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,720
Speaker 1: great football people from Eastern Illinois got Garoppolo and Robo

282
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 1: as players. You have Sean Payton as a coach and

283
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 1: a player. You have Brad Childress who went there. A

284
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: lot of guys have come out of Eastern Illinois to

285
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 1: make it a share. Yeah, yeah, of course, it's a

286
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: it's a I don't know, it's it's a unique deal.

287
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 1: You know, it's kind of a special place to get

288
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 1: down there, and it's it's a real close knit environment. Um,

289
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 1: there's really no a whole hot to do outside of Charleston.

290
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: You're kind of in the middle of nowhere. So, um,

291
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's uh, you know when I was there,

292
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 1: uh and right now, there's a lot of good people

293
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 1: out of there. Um, you know, people that you know,

294
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: want want to see people you know the players do well.

295
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 1: You know, So speaking from that portion of it, it's

296
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 1: no surprise that there's been you know, I wouldn't necessarily

297
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: put my name in the same breath as Jamie or

298
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: Tony or any of those guys, but you know, there's

299
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 1: been a number of people that have had success in

300
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 1: the NFL that have come from that. And then yeah,

301
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 1: going to going to Chicago is going to be pretty

302
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 1: cool for me. You know something growing up you always

303
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 1: kind of dream about envisioning yourself doing and having the

304
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 1: opportunity to do that. It's going to be pretty special.

305
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: In December, let's layer up, okay question, Yeah, I think

306
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: I want to talk about this whole layering up concept

307
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: that those two are talking about in Chicago in December.

308
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 1: Thank you, NFL schedule gods. Well, I actually have one

309
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 1: of my former players to thank for all that. That's

310
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: a story for you for a different day. But Chicago

311
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 1: in December, it's going to be cold. Let's hope that

312
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 1: we are playing that game. I would love to go

313
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 1: up there in December. That's way it's supposed to be.

314
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: We went up to Green Bay in December, going up

315
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 1: to Chicago in December, Minnesota, Detroit, don't matter. I'm playing

316
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 1: those games inside. It doesn't matter when you play those games.

317
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 1: But those two outside playing him in December, that's kind

318
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 1: of cool. In December twenty sixteen, what do we get?

319
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 1: Beautiful snowy lambeau Field And the result was not exactly

320
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: what we wanted that particular day. But playing in Lambo

321
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 1: on a snowy day like that is a dream. It

322
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: was absolutely a dream, especially for a kid who grew

323
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 1: up going to lambeau Field to see the Green Bay

324
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: Packers as I did many many years ago. But now

325
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 1: I am a Texan and so is Anthony Weaver. He

326
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 1: was here as a player, now he's back as a coach.

327
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 1: Now he's the defensive coordinator. Will hear from him next

328
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 1: right here on Texans All Access For the most in

00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: It is Texans All Access dot dot dot from the crib. Yeah,

332
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 1: I think we should put that in to our our

333
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 1: lead ins and to our bumpbacks the Texans all Access

334
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,879
Speaker 1: shows from the house. Yes, I'm doing it from my house,

335
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 1: which I would tell you where it is, but I'm

336
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,120
Speaker 1: trying to be socially distanced from everyone at this point.

337
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 1: Well you know where my house is. During the season,

338
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: that's right there on Kirby Drive. It's big, old Energy Stadium.

339
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 1: But it is not tonight, as it hasn't been for

340
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 1: the last three months. It's in my house and I

341
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,919
Speaker 1: have John Harris football analysts and the sideline reporter for

342
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:06,360
Speaker 1: your Houston Texans. And as I said yesterday, we are

343
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: going to treat this week as sort of a celebration

344
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,439
Speaker 1: of what we've been able to give to you from

345
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:19,880
Speaker 1: our Texans, from coaches, from players to members of our organization.

346
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 1: Figured we'd do that during this week and a lead

347
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:26,639
Speaker 1: up to July fourth, and then once we get into July,

348
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:32,199
Speaker 1: then it's all about getting ready for the season. Listen,

349
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 1: I know what you're gonna say, just like everybody else.

350
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 1: But if there isn't a season, but now you can

351
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,399
Speaker 1: do about that. We just have to start getting ready

352
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: for it. And when the NFL decides we're not doing

353
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 1: it or that we are we are ready either way.

354
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 1: So in a celebration, if you will, of voices that

355
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:55,440
Speaker 1: we heard throughout our off season, essentially from the time

356
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 1: that Mark and I took the shows to the house

357
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,880
Speaker 1: until now, we've caught up with a lot of different people. Well,

358
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 1: tonight's show is going to be about coaches and keyon.

359
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: That sounds kind of good. I like that the alliteration,

360
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: although spilled totally differently coaches with the see Tuesday edition

361
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 1: of Texans All Access from the Crib. That's right from

362
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: my house. I am John Harris. Foot play Hilton said

363
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 1: one reporter for your Houston Texans, and we heard from

364
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:29,719
Speaker 1: Tim Kelly, offensive coordinator going into his first year's call

365
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,719
Speaker 1: and ball plays. Second year as offensive coordinator. I get

366
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 1: that question a lot. I've got it for I think

367
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 1: two decades. Why would you have an offensive coordinator reads

368
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,760
Speaker 1: not calling the plays. I've seen that numerous places, a

369
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 1: long college, a lot in the NFL. We've seen him

370
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,200
Speaker 1: with the New Orleans Saints with Seam Payton. He always

371
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 1: calls plays, but he's had a couple of different guys,

372
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 1: Pete Lombarti, Pete Lombarti, Pete Ah named Skates, Joe Lombardi

373
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 1: as his offensive coordinator. I think He's had a few

374
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 1: others along the way that I've always been there to

375
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,920
Speaker 1: do a lot of the organizational duties, run the meetings,

376
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 1: those kind of things. But yet on Sundays, Champaign is

377
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 1: gonna be the one call in a place that's Bill

378
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 1: Bryant did in twenty nineteen. That will not be the

379
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,159
Speaker 1: case in twenty twenty. It will also not be the

380
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 1: case in twenty twenty for Romeo Crenell to call the

381
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:18,880
Speaker 1: defensive ball plays as he had in twenty fourteen, fifteen, sixteen,

382
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: eighteen and nineteen. Now you know, as I left out seventeen,

383
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: that was Mike Grabels year to call plays. The year

384
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 1: after that, Mike Grabel took over his head coach for

385
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans. Rack step back in for eighteen and nineteen,

386
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: and now Anthony Weaver will step in as the defensive

387
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 1: coordinator for your Houston Texans. Now, I couldn't be more

388
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:46,639
Speaker 1: excited now from this standpoint, not because I didn't want

389
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: to see Rack as defensive coordinator. I love Rack. I

390
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 1: said that last night we talked about Rack and the

391
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:55,160
Speaker 1: honor that he was bestowed upon him, that was bestowed

392
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: upon him by the Pro Football Writers Association, the Paul

393
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 1: Doctors the Ziman Award, given a contributions from assistant coaches,

394
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:06,199
Speaker 1: and he has been fabulous and he is just a fabulous,

395
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 1: fabulous man. But Anthony Weaver was a guy that in

396
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: my first year radio with a different station, Hello, with

397
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 1: my buddy Sean Pendergast, we were looking for a Texan

398
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,840
Speaker 1: to join us, and we weren't going to get match

399
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 1: job Andre Johnson. We weren't going to get the big

400
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 1: name Texan. We were the fourth radio station in the city,

401
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:27,359
Speaker 1: so we weren't going to get, you know, one of

402
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:31,400
Speaker 1: those players that everybody knew about. So we always wanted

403
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 1: to get somebody that we felt like it was going

404
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 1: to be good radio. And the suggestion came up about

405
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 1: Anthony Weaver and Sean Penegast, a domer, Anthony Weaver a

406
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,200
Speaker 1: domer sounded like a pretty good fit. Like, yeah, let's

407
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,199
Speaker 1: do this. We did it the first night. I'll never

408
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 1: forget we did the first night and we've took off

409
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: and I was like, Sean, he's good, Oh my goodness,

410
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 1: he's really good. And so we've came on the air

411
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 1: with us for that year in the next year, two

412
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 1: thousand and seven, two thousand and eight, and he was

413
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:05,879
Speaker 1: just fabulous. And then he went on a journey, a

414
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 1: journey to be a coach, and it started down at

415
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 1: University of Florida where he's a graduate assistant for Urban Meyer,

416
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,880
Speaker 1: and it now all the way to him being defensive

417
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 1: coordinator here with the Houston Texans. This, I know was

418
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: a decision for Bill O'Brien and he looked at and thought,

419
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 1: this is logical. This makes a ton of sense. Of

420
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: players love him. The defensive line has loved him. We

421
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 1: all in Houston love him. He's got such a great demeanor.

422
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 1: He is, I think gonna be fabulous as a leader

423
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 1: of men, no matter where he's offensive coordina or DEFENSEI

424
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: coordina especial teams coordinator, head coach, defensive it doesn't matter.

425
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:48,119
Speaker 1: He is a fabulous leader of men, and they all

426
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:49,959
Speaker 1: in that locker room can vouch for him. Mark had

427
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:51,639
Speaker 1: a chance to catch up with him on a season

428
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 1: ticket member call and he asked, Anthony, how different everything

429
00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:00,880
Speaker 1: has been this offseason. It's been unique, unique, And never

430
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:02,879
Speaker 1: have I had to you know, I've never been in

431
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 1: meetings and had my two year old son run up

432
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,320
Speaker 1: to me and try and try to play with my,

433
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: uh my controller. But we're you know, we're still we're

434
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 1: still working. You know, we're working with all the technology

435
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,399
Speaker 1: we have available to us. We're still making progress and

436
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,320
Speaker 1: moving in the right direction. And I think it's as

437
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,680
Speaker 1: long as you're doing that then then everything will be okay. Great, Well,

00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 1: we got some really good players. Why I can't wait

461
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 1: to just get a hold of and put them in

462
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: some of these these new schemes that we're devising up.

463
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,679
Speaker 1: And but I just think personally that I'm gonna be myself.

464
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 1: We're gonna we're gonna be aggressive, We're gonna we're gonna

465
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,200
Speaker 1: be sound, we're gonna be not gonna be reckless. But

466
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,639
Speaker 1: we're gonna try to get after these quarterbacks, right all right?

467
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 1: Moore questions here, Giles wants to know what impact do

468
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 1: you think Ross Blacklocke will have your rookie defensive lineman.

469
00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 1: You guys have been around me for a few years now. No,

470
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,920
Speaker 1: I don't like praising rookie too much. But Ross brings

471
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:04,920
Speaker 1: a lot to the table when he saw in film,

472
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,520
Speaker 1: he has the ability to stop the run, to rush

473
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 1: the passer. He's a he's a very strong minded kid.

474
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,720
Speaker 1: And I think as long as he continues to put

475
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 1: the work in, he can be absolutely be a contributor

476
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 1: for us in year one. How much that'll be determined

477
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 1: by him. But but I have the utmost faith in

478
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,639
Speaker 1: his ability and his work ethic to come in here

479
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 1: and help us an awful lot. Contributor is a key word,

480
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 1: right because you have a rotation going on up front,

481
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 1: A lot of guys get a lot of snaps depending

482
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,439
Speaker 1: on the situation. It's sort of a group effort right

483
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 1: up there. Yeah, absolutely, And I was, you know I was.

484
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 1: I was in Ross's situation nineteen years ago. You know,

485
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 1: I was a second round pick that came into the

486
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens and started early on. So I'm not saying

487
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 1: we're penciling him as a starter, but I'm I'm I'm

488
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 1: saying right here, I'm telling him through this medium right now,

489
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 1: that he can get it done if he puts the

490
00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: work in excellently. All right, Artua will this season's defense

491
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 1: to be more aggressive. Um, you know I I've said this.

492
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 1: I said this, you know previously that I envisioned our

493
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 1: defense being a reflection of our city. So I want

494
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,240
Speaker 1: a defense that's going to go out there and be

495
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 1: extremely passionate about Paul. They gotta be tough. They gotta

496
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,679
Speaker 1: be Texans tough, and they got to be resilient. They

497
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 1: got to be to be able to respond in the

498
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,400
Speaker 1: face of and be successful in the face of any

499
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 1: adverse situation. And I think we have the guys on

500
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 1: the roster to get that done. Excellent, all right, So

501
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 1: Tim says, big fan of yours, Anthony, you were real

502
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:41,919
Speaker 1: forced to reckon with as a player. This is more

503
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 1: of a comment than a question, coach. But obviously you

504
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,440
Speaker 1: were a player and you played for the Texans, you

505
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 1: played for the Baltimore Ravens, and I know you've been

506
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 1: asked many times how that comes into play as a coach.

507
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,199
Speaker 1: But it's got to be an interesting dynamic. When you're

508
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,920
Speaker 1: a player, you're fully responsible for yourself, part of a team.

509
00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 1: Now you're responsible for so many guys. What do you

510
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,879
Speaker 1: received as the difference? Really? Um, I mean, Mark, it's

511
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 1: no different than than being single and then getting married

512
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 1: and having kids. Right, Yeah, so you know, you just

513
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,440
Speaker 1: you feel that you feel the pressure of not wanting

514
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 1: to let anybody down. And that's probably that's probably the

515
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 1: biggest thing when when you're when you're by yourself, you

516
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 1: control all of that. You know, you control how hard

517
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 1: you work and how discipline you are. Now you're trying

518
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 1: to motivate and bring people along with you, and and

519
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 1: while you while you feel that pressure, it's always something

520
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: I've embraced. I've always saw myself as a leader, even

521
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,440
Speaker 1: as a player. So this isn't a this isn't a

522
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 1: position or anything that feels unusual to me. It's actually

523
00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 1: something I embrace. All right, Well, said Joseph. What coaches

524
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,679
Speaker 1: were some of your biggest influences and why you mentioned

525
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 1: Romeo already? And you know we know your history rex Ron.

526
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,479
Speaker 1: I know you're asked about him during your press conference.

527
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 1: You were with Urban Meyer at Florida, Right, it's a

528
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,640
Speaker 1: grat system as well. Yeah, so I have a few.

529
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 1: I have a few, and I'm gonna try to I'm

530
00:27:58,359 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 1: gonna try to be brief because this is gonna be

531
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 1: tough for me. There's probably four guys and there's probably

532
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:03,800
Speaker 1: someone I'm gonna be leaving out. But my first is

533
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,600
Speaker 1: my high school coach, all right, Blaize Juliano, who played

534
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 1: defensive line in the Canadian League and actually talked me

535
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:11,879
Speaker 1: into playing football when I thought I was gonna be

536
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan. You know, I was gonna be six Frina

537
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,639
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan. But till this day he is still like

538
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 1: a second father to me, and it was a tremendous

539
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 1: influence on me. Rex Ryan obviously just who I am

540
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:29,879
Speaker 1: as a coach, philosophically, just from a demeanor standpoint with

541
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:33,200
Speaker 1: my players. A lot of that was because of his influence.

542
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 1: He was tough, he was aggressive, he was a player's coach,

543
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:37,879
Speaker 1: though he knew when to have fun. But when we

544
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: crossed those white lines, we were trying to take your heart,

545
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 1: all right, And I'm allowed that. I'm I'm very similar

546
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 1: in that in that way. I'm you already mentioned Rack,

547
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 1: I've already spoken about him. And then Urban. I can't

548
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: say enough about Urban. Urban's the guy who who obviously

549
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,960
Speaker 1: had a tremendous amount of success, gave me my first

550
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: coaching job at the University of Florida as a graduate assistant,

551
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 1: and still to this day just offers advice and wisdom

552
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 1: whenever I seek it. So those are probably for the

553
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 1: biggest and I know I'm forgetting people, but those are

554
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 1: probably for the biggest ones. All right, let's go to

555
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 1: how he wants to all about blitzing. Will blitz packages

556
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 1: be more prominent this season? I don't want you gonna

557
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 1: give away state secrets, but a lot of people look

558
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 1: at the blitz is one thing, but you can do

559
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:25,280
Speaker 1: it in so many different ways, right For sure, what

560
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: I can promise is that we're gonna do everything in

561
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 1: our ability to affect these quarterbacks. The game is. The

562
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 1: game has changed. It's not like when I've played in

563
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 1: people line up in twenty one personnel and they're trying

564
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 1: to get three yards in a cloud at dust. They

565
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 1: got these quarterbacks now with the way the rules are,

566
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,600
Speaker 1: they're trying to sling this ball over the players. Well

567
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 1: they can sling it, but I promise you we're gonna

568
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 1: try to make them pay for it. You growing up Houston,

569
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 1: it was the house of pain, and we're gonna do

570
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:49,800
Speaker 1: everything we can to try to try to get some

571
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 1: of that energy back in a stadium. Defensively, Oh nice reference,

572
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 1: people are gonna like that one, all right, Alan, Which

573
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 1: rookies excite you the most? Alan, it's a rookie question.

574
00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 1: We can't do this considering the schemes, but you mentioned it.

575
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 1: You're looking for contribution, you're looking for absorbing into the system,

576
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:12,320
Speaker 1: assimilating as quickly as possible. Right, Yeah, I don't. I

577
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:16,280
Speaker 1: technically usually don't get too excited about rookies. But the

578
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 1: guys that we the guys that we brought onto this roster,

579
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,000
Speaker 1: they all have the three qualities that we're looking for

580
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,960
Speaker 1: on his team. They're dependable, they're tough, and they're smart.

581
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 1: And with those attributes, that's going to give him a

582
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 1: chance to come in here early and help on defense. Yes,

583
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 1: but they can help the team in a variety of ways.

584
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 1: They can contribute on special teams, which I think is

585
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 1: a very undervalued phase of the game. You know, they

586
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 1: can come in and contribute there. Then they'll earn the

587
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: right to play some more on defense. Okay, let's get

588
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 1: to Leo's question. What will JJ's role be in twenty

589
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 1: twenty on the defensive line or on the defensive side

590
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 1: of the ball. He wants to know, all right, So

591
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:58,280
Speaker 1: JJ's role, I would imagine very JJ like lack of

592
00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 1: a better way of putting it. Yeah, JJ's role role

593
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:03,280
Speaker 1: is going to be to continue to get in the

594
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 1: game and kick somebody's butt. That that is gonna be

595
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 1: a role. We're gonna do everything in our power to

596
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 1: put him in the best position to do so. Okay, Mike,

597
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 1: you've been called the disciple of Rex Ryan, who is

598
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 1: noted to another blitzing question question, blitz all the time?

599
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 1: Can we expect that? Well? And let me let me

600
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 1: piggyback on that a little bit here, coach, when we

601
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 1: talk about pass rush, you know, we talk about JJ

602
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 1: all the sacks he's had his career and everything, Whitney,

603
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 1: but it's a buy committee thing, right it really. Carolina

604
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,080
Speaker 1: was second in the league last year in sacks and

605
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 1: nobody had more than nine and a half or something

606
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 1: like that. You don't mind where it comes from, do you? No?

607
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 1: Absolutely not. You know, the whole possess of the new

608
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 1: things we're gonna do schematically, because you mentioned being a

609
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 1: Rex Rex Ryan disciple will enable those guys to get

610
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 1: some more one on once, whether that's Whitney, JJ, Charles

611
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 1: a Manna who Ross Blacklock, I mean Jacob Martin. We

612
00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 1: can go on for days about the guys we have

613
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,320
Speaker 1: that can get to the quarterback. So so it's my

614
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 1: goal to put them in and more prime opportunities to

615
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 1: get that done. In terms of being exactly like Rex Um,

616
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if that'll be exact as I came.

617
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 1: I'll probably be more of a mess between Rex, Ryan

618
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 1: and Mike, who has also been a huge mentor for me,

619
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 1: who's we're gonna be We're gonna be aggressive, but we

620
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 1: won't be reckless. We'll be calculated with what we're trying

621
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 1: to do. Sounds great, David, how are you navigating the

622
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen situation with the new players? And you were

623
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:33,400
Speaker 1: asked about that earlier. I stream about home life, but

624
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:36,960
Speaker 1: with the players, it is a unique environment. Everybody's sort

625
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 1: of in the same boat here around the league, but

626
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 1: you get the feeling that you know, hitting the ground

627
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 1: running is going to be so crucial when you guys

628
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 1: are able to get back together. Absolutely, the beauty is,

629
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 1: fortunately through through all these these technology technological resources that

630
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,320
Speaker 1: we can still get the teaching part of it done.

631
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 1: Where they're gonna miss out is obviously just just the

632
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 1: sheer amount of reps that they can go out there

633
00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:01,200
Speaker 1: and execute what we're asking them to do. And this

634
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,959
Speaker 1: game is you know, repetition as the mother of skills,

635
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 1: So there's no way to replicate that on here. But

636
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 1: at least when we get in there and they and

637
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 1: they hear they hear a defensive you know, a defensive call,

638
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:14,640
Speaker 1: it won't be the first time they've heard it. Whereas

639
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 1: if this happened back in you know, two thousand and two,

640
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:18,959
Speaker 1: two thousand and three, when I was playing, we'd all

641
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 1: just probably be out on football fields running around, having

642
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 1: no idea what's going on with the defense. So I

643
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 1: still think we're able to get work done and they

644
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 1: won't be starting from ground zero. Virtual coaching Priss, What

645
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 1: do you think about the defensive line upgrades this offseason?

646
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 1: What we talked about Ross and just the guys in general, though,

647
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 1: because you have good guys coming back, You got Angelo

648
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 1: coming back, you have Brandon Dunn coming back. We talked

649
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 1: about what a mena who had a nice rookie season.

650
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:48,880
Speaker 1: I would imagine you're looking for that year one to

651
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 1: year two jump out of him as well. Yeah, I

652
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:54,800
Speaker 1: have a lot of faith and belief in our defensive

653
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:58,959
Speaker 1: line we have guys who who know their roles, who

654
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 1: would sell in their roles, and and they're dependable. They're dependable,

655
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,440
Speaker 1: and you got guys that can recaving havoc as well.

656
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,479
Speaker 1: So when you when you have that combination to guys

657
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:10,719
Speaker 1: and guys who are completely selfless and I just just

658
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 1: want to win, just want to win and do it's

659
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 1: best for the team. And um, then you got a

660
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 1: chance to be very good on defense and be good

661
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: up front. And our last question is from David, what

662
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 1: are the top two or three keys and getting a

663
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:28,279
Speaker 1: defense to elite status. This is a good question. Two

664
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 1: or three keys, coach, that's that's that's a that's a

665
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:35,839
Speaker 1: great question. I think. Um, you gotta get eleven guys

666
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 1: on the same page, all right. This our game is unique.

667
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:41,000
Speaker 1: Our game is unique. It's not like basketball where you

668
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:42,800
Speaker 1: can pass the ball to Michael Jordan let him go

669
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 1: win the game, or baseball where you put the hands in,

670
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: you know, you give it to to cole you know,

671
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,480
Speaker 1: and say say go go strike everybody out. We can't

672
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,840
Speaker 1: do that. In order for us to be successful on defense,

673
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:55,920
Speaker 1: we got we got to have eleven guys on the

674
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 1: same page communicating at a high level at all times. UM,

675
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:01,400
Speaker 1: And I think we can get that done. We can

676
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,680
Speaker 1: get that done. UM. Next, we have to we have

677
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:05,920
Speaker 1: to affect the quarterback. We have to affect the quarterback

678
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 1: through through disguise, through rush, just through through pre snap manipulation. UM.

679
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:14,800
Speaker 1: It's that it's that chess match that happens before the

680
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,279
Speaker 1: snap that I think we can improve upon. That we

681
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 1: can that we can get better at, especially when you're

682
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:22,400
Speaker 1: facing the Philip Rivers twice a year. UM. You know,

683
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,359
Speaker 1: guys like Patrick Mahomes. So I think as we get

684
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,239
Speaker 1: better at those things, if we can get eleven guys

685
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:29,880
Speaker 1: communicating and being on the same page, if we can

686
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:31,840
Speaker 1: if we can win the battle pre snap and not

687
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:35,120
Speaker 1: not show our hand, you know, not be the poor

688
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 1: poker players at the table, that I think we can

689
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 1: improve on defense. Can I tell you how excited I

690
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 1: get to hear Anthony we were talking about this team,

691
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 1: his defense and what they want to do on that

692
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,759
Speaker 1: side of the ball in twenty twenty and beyond. That

693
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,800
Speaker 1: was great stuff. Okay, we'll do a little deep slant

694
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,680

Speaker 1: on our site. Okay, let's dive into our deep slant

875
00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:21,400
Speaker 1: interview of this week, and it is with Keion Cross

876
00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:24,480
Speaker 1: and Texas traded for Keyon last year in that flurry

877
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:28,720
Speaker 1: of activity right before Week one of the twenty nineteen season,

878
00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:30,799
Speaker 1: and Kean came in and did some really good things

879
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:34,719
Speaker 1: for this team at cornerback on special teams. He is

880
00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:37,160
Speaker 1: a wonderful young man and he's got a lot going

881
00:47:37,160 --> 00:47:38,440
Speaker 1: on and deep you had a chance to catch up

882
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:41,319
Speaker 1: with him. How challenging has that been with the off

883
00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:43,800
Speaker 1: season that we've had with the COVID nineteen, all the

884
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:46,480
Speaker 1: stay at home shelters to be able to do what

885
00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:49,879
Speaker 1: you do this offseason. What's it been like for you? Well,

886
00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 1: you know, I would say it's kind of been you know,

887
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:56,480
Speaker 1: I would say good transition. It's not very hard because

888
00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:58,760
Speaker 1: you know, the only thing that's really changed is obviously

889
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:00,880
Speaker 1: you got to see in the house more or um.

890
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,960
Speaker 1: But I think it's kind of a reality be check.

891
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:05,399
Speaker 1: I think it is good because you get to spend

892
00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:09,040
Speaker 1: more time to family, um and things of that nature.

893
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,719
Speaker 1: But for us, I mean we're still working out. We

894
00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:15,759
Speaker 1: still you know, I mean the outside is not closed down,

895
00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:18,160
Speaker 1: so you can still go to a park or you know,

896
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:21,320
Speaker 1: open grass field and do a workout. But you know,

897
00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:24,520
Speaker 1: I think it's a good time to use the resources

898
00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:26,839
Speaker 1: that you have, and you know, it's a good time

899
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:29,360
Speaker 1: to bond and and you know all that good stuff.

900
00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:31,759
Speaker 1: But it's not really it hasn't been a big transition

901
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:34,279
Speaker 1: for me as for as training or anything like that.

902
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:36,879
Speaker 1: I like to ask players what they've missed the most

903
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:39,879
Speaker 1: of this offseason. Is there anything that you've really missed? Yeah,

904
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:43,360
Speaker 1: I've missed traveling. I wanted I had a few places

905
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:46,160
Speaker 1: in mind I wanted to really really visit. Obviously, I

906
00:48:46,239 --> 00:48:48,480
Speaker 1: wanted to try to get to Jamaica, want to try

907
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:50,759
Speaker 1: to get I wanted to try to get to Costa Rica,

908
00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:53,680
Speaker 1: a few other places that I was going to try

909
00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:56,080
Speaker 1: to get to. But you know that, you know I

910
00:48:56,120 --> 00:48:57,759
Speaker 1: didn't get a chance to do that. That's all right.

911
00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:00,280
Speaker 1: You know I got to see the palm trees of Florida.

912
00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:02,239
Speaker 1: Said that was good in itself. You didn't get to

913
00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:03,920
Speaker 1: do all that, but there were some things that you

914
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:08,040
Speaker 1: did get to do. You donated nineteen thousand dollars to

915
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:11,839
Speaker 1: Western Carolina, your alma mater. Tell me about that? Why

916
00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:13,840
Speaker 1: was that important to you? Who did you want to

917
00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:18,120
Speaker 1: see at help? Well, a small story about myself. When

918
00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:22,080
Speaker 1: I was offered to Western Carolina, offered partial and a

919
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 1: couple they helped me. They actually provided my scholarship. And

920
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:29,600
Speaker 1: you know, I was like, you know, when when when

921
00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:31,960
Speaker 1: God push you in positions to help others, um, you

922
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:33,879
Speaker 1: don't want to be selfish because you know you want

923
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:36,560
Speaker 1: to lesson to be taken away either. So you know

924
00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:38,200
Speaker 1: that came from my heart and I was you know,

925
00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:40,680
Speaker 1: I was talking to Rod and Tracy Grant who's over

926
00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:43,600
Speaker 1: the SCA at Western Carolina, and I was asking him,

927
00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:45,680
Speaker 1: I said, you know, what are some things that could

928
00:49:45,760 --> 00:49:48,880
Speaker 1: be helpful in the in the mindset, you know, bettering

929
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:52,719
Speaker 1: the FCA program was Future Christian Athletes to help young

930
00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:56,560
Speaker 1: young people either get scholarships to go to school, to

931
00:49:57,080 --> 00:49:59,719
Speaker 1: attend Winner Blitz, which is a big Christian event for

932
00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:02,920
Speaker 1: coll the students I've had and it's seeing hundreds of

933
00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:06,360
Speaker 1: you know, college students change lives and commited like the

934
00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:09,759
Speaker 1: christ through Um Winter Blitz. So you know, it's just

935
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:13,040
Speaker 1: things like that that and they helped me obviously when

936
00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:14,920
Speaker 1: you know, I was a college student and didn't have

937
00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:17,800
Speaker 1: funds to go to things like that, and but I

938
00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:21,279
Speaker 1: know for a fact from experience that things of winter

939
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:26,560
Speaker 1: blasts and you know, getting the the challenge of challenging

940
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:30,399
Speaker 1: your spiritual walk, that's what's gonna actually, you know that's

941
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:32,520
Speaker 1: gonna be the memories that you have in college. You know,

942
00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:35,759
Speaker 1: it wouldn't be the you know, the the games, you

943
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:39,839
Speaker 1: want anything, you'll remember, you know, the Christian leadership camps

944
00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:41,960
Speaker 1: that you attended. And that's what that's where it all

945
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:44,200
Speaker 1: came from. And you know, they was telling me it

946
00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:46,759
Speaker 1: was kind of like, you know, hey, we could really

947
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:52,120
Speaker 1: use some finances, you know far the ministry and they

948
00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:56,479
Speaker 1: would help get more. Obviously more UM sponsors they would

949
00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:59,000
Speaker 1: feel comfortable to donate more. And we came up with

950
00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:01,759
Speaker 1: this plane I challenge. It's the the FA Crew which

951
00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:04,600
Speaker 1: is brought and Tracy Brand. I've challenged them. I said, uh, well,

952
00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:08,480
Speaker 1: if you can get someone to donate uh, sixteen hundred

953
00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:11,560
Speaker 1: dollars a month, I'll I'll do the same. I'll match you.

954
00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:14,920
Speaker 1: And so that's where that came from. And they got them.

955
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:17,319
Speaker 1: They got a few people to donate sixteen hundred dollars

956
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:19,239
Speaker 1: a month, and I was like, all right, it really work,

957
00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:22,400
Speaker 1: you know, me matching and sticking to my word, and

958
00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:24,799
Speaker 1: that was the biggest thing for me. So not only

959
00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:26,600
Speaker 1: did you donate, you got a few other people to

960
00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:29,080
Speaker 1: donate as well. So you really helped them raise some

961
00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:33,359
Speaker 1: money I'm sure much needed right now. Yes, what does

962
00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:35,440
Speaker 1: that mean to you? Obviously you you talk about how

963
00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:38,400
Speaker 1: much FCA benefited you and those funds, But to be

964
00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:40,919
Speaker 1: able to give use your platform now and to give back,

965
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:42,360
Speaker 1: how special is it to be able to do that

966
00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:45,319
Speaker 1: as an NFL player? Oh, that's very spect you um,

967
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:48,360
Speaker 1: you know, it's just a you know, it's things that

968
00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:50,840
Speaker 1: you can think of, you know, when you get the

969
00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:52,680
Speaker 1: opportunity to do things like you know, I tell them,

970
00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:56,640
Speaker 1: you know, do it from the heart, and they, especially SCA.

971
00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:58,799
Speaker 1: That's a big part of my life. This has been

972
00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:01,000
Speaker 1: a Christian is a big part of my life. And uh,

973
00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:03,840
Speaker 1: you know, I would do it again, and I probably

974
00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:05,840
Speaker 1: am going to do it again at some point. But

975
00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:10,040
Speaker 1: I enjoy seeing not even just young athletes, but young people,

976
00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:14,359
Speaker 1: you know, young adults changing their lives and actually going

977
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:16,600
Speaker 1: and living into the right duration. Because that's the that's

978
00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:19,080
Speaker 1: the thing that we fight today is how do we

979
00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:21,880
Speaker 1: get more young young kids and you know, young adults

980
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:25,480
Speaker 1: going into the right duration instead of you know, doing

981
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:27,480
Speaker 1: the wrong thing if you will, if you will, you know,

982
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:30,160
Speaker 1: And and the thing of that is we don't have

983
00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:34,040
Speaker 1: enough support from those who have the platform. You know.

984
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:37,279
Speaker 1: I think we got to challenge ourselves as as as

985
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:41,000
Speaker 1: as people who who's most influence to others. We got

986
00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 1: to challenge ourselves to help out more, to be more

987
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:46,879
Speaker 1: visual into the communities. And that's another way. That's another

988
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:48,799
Speaker 1: way we can do that. You know, if it whether

989
00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:52,280
Speaker 1: it's financially or whether it's literally physically going to community

990
00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:54,759
Speaker 1: and passing out waters from door to door. You know,

991
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:58,120
Speaker 1: people need to see that and that guilts people hope,

992
00:52:58,160 --> 00:53:01,320
Speaker 1: and hope goes a long way. You talk about yourself

993
00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:03,600
Speaker 1: like you're not a young athlete anymore, and you kind

994
00:53:03,640 --> 00:53:06,239
Speaker 1: of aren't. You're in year three now with the Texans. Yeah,

995
00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:08,800
Speaker 1: what about for yourself? What a what are some goals

996
00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:13,080
Speaker 1: that you've set for yourself for twenty twenty? Oh my goodness.

997
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:15,319
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I feel like I'm I feel like I'm

998
00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:19,680
Speaker 1: your thirteen. Um, but uh, some goals. I said it

999
00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:22,720
Speaker 1: for myself, you know. Um, obviously I'm you know, becoming

1000
00:53:22,760 --> 00:53:25,120
Speaker 1: a very end the game and uh, you know, I

1001
00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:27,440
Speaker 1: just want to you know, get the best out of myself.

1002
00:53:27,640 --> 00:53:29,440
Speaker 1: You know, every year that I played. I'm a hard

1003
00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:31,840
Speaker 1: nosed guy. I'm gonna work hard, and you know I

1004
00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:34,239
Speaker 1: want to Obviously, I got some individual accolades that I

1005
00:53:34,360 --> 00:53:35,800
Speaker 1: want to get, you know, like the All Pro I

1006
00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:37,320
Speaker 1: want to get, you know, I want to be the

1007
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,399
Speaker 1: best special team or that I can be the best

1008
00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:42,400
Speaker 1: slot or outside corner I can be. I want to

1009
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:44,759
Speaker 1: get a Pro Bowl this year. That's that's a goal

1010
00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:48,400
Speaker 1: that I that's my short term goal. And obviously, you know,

1011
00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:51,160
Speaker 1: the team goal always to win, you know, Like I said,

1012
00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:53,359
Speaker 1: I'm a little greed in this aspect, but I got

1013
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,759
Speaker 1: one s a Bowl, and uh, I wouldn't mind getting

1014
00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:58,120
Speaker 1: get in the Texans and one more so, uh, you

1015
00:53:58,160 --> 00:53:59,520
Speaker 1: know it would be nice to get to get us

1016
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:02,200
Speaker 1: there post last year, but closer and not good enough.

1017
00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:04,719
Speaker 1: So you know that's our team goals, just just to

1018
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:07,719
Speaker 1: win a super Bowl. Um, so that'll be, that'll be.

1019
00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:09,640
Speaker 1: That's kind of some of the goals I have for

1020
00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:14,160
Speaker 1: this year. Obviously one stefferent times. So yeah, as a rookie,

1021
00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:16,600
Speaker 1: you won the Super Bowl and then last year you

1022
00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:18,680
Speaker 1: got traded to the Texans just before the start of

1023
00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:21,000
Speaker 1: the season, but you played every single game for the Texans.

1024
00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:25,160
Speaker 1: You traded both postseason contests. How different is this off

1025
00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:27,719
Speaker 1: season been for you because you've sort of had the

1026
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:30,120
Speaker 1: whole season to get used to the playbook, to us

1027
00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:32,560
Speaker 1: to your tie. So how much easier has this off

1028
00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:36,759
Speaker 1: season been for you? It's been fairly easy. Um. The

1029
00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:39,680
Speaker 1: thing is is, you know, I've had more time to

1030
00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:42,640
Speaker 1: actually you know, get the playbook and go through it

1031
00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:45,440
Speaker 1: and this visually think about what we did last year

1032
00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:48,040
Speaker 1: with the Texans. You know, I got a chance to

1033
00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:51,800
Speaker 1: learn more positions, if you will, So it's been a

1034
00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 1: it's been a it's been a pretty good off season.

1035
00:54:53,719 --> 00:54:57,040
Speaker 1: I'm telling myself anyway to to learn different positions. I

1036
00:54:57,120 --> 00:54:59,239
Speaker 1: want to continue to grow. I feel like you can't

1037
00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:01,640
Speaker 1: stop learning about the game because there's so much that's

1038
00:55:01,719 --> 00:55:04,160
Speaker 1: evolving with the game. So, you know, the more we

1039
00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:05,680
Speaker 1: can learn, the boy we can know, you know, the

1040
00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:08,440
Speaker 1: better will be when the situation comes up, you know,

1041
00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:11,600
Speaker 1: you know, playing to get in the playoffs, if you will,

1042
00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:13,920
Speaker 1: or playing a tight game like we did versus you know,

1043
00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:17,040
Speaker 1: Week one versus the Saints. Um, There's is certain things

1044
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:18,600
Speaker 1: you can put yourself in a better position, and this

1045
00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:20,759
Speaker 1: is a great time to do it while you're quarantined

1046
00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:23,120
Speaker 1: in you got nothing but you and your lap job,

1047
00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:25,800
Speaker 1: or you're you know, tablet and you know, the teammates

1048
00:55:26,280 --> 00:55:28,040
Speaker 1: we all in zoom and were talking to each other.

1049
00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:30,640
Speaker 1: So this is a good time, you know, to grow

1050
00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:33,680
Speaker 1: as a team. You guys have a very smart secondary.

1051
00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:35,879
Speaker 1: You're getting your masters. Tell me a little bit about

1052
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:39,640
Speaker 1: more about that. Oh yeah, so obviously I have a

1053
00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:43,560
Speaker 1: passion for Christ and uh in school at Liberty University

1054
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:46,520
Speaker 1: from my ended which is my master in Divinity, I

1055
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:49,800
Speaker 1: was going to school for my undergrad in theology, but

1056
00:55:49,960 --> 00:55:51,759
Speaker 1: I didn't like a doctrine and how they was doing

1057
00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:54,640
Speaker 1: it at my school, so I changed over to a

1058
00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:59,200
Speaker 1: doll major in marketing and sport management. So I finished

1059
00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:01,920
Speaker 1: that and I said, well, I'll go to Liberty. Started

1060
00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:04,839
Speaker 1: last year. I go to Liberty and I was like, hey,

1061
00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:07,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna start. If I'm gonna do it, let's do it.

1062
00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:10,360
Speaker 1: I started, and I mean it's been it's been a

1063
00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:13,120
Speaker 1: growing process. It's been a growing pain too, because you

1064
00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:16,200
Speaker 1: know different you know format, you gotta type and run

1065
00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:18,640
Speaker 1: right hand in this. But other than that, I've learned

1066
00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:21,280
Speaker 1: a lot. You know, I've got to meet some good people.

1067
00:56:21,560 --> 00:56:23,480
