Speaker 1: handed out, including the great handed out to our own CJ. Stroud,

29
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: which I don't agree with, uh, but you know their

30
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 1: expectations built in, but I didn't agree with it. We'll

31
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: talk about that in our next segment. By kicking off

Speaker 3: Nick Cassario.

37
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 4: Nick, good to see you, fellows. How we doing doing well?

38
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 3: Okay, so owing to let's talk about game won a

39
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 3: Game two improvement improved in a lot of areas, but

40
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 3: you didn't get the win.

41
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 4: How do you see the big picture?

42
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 5: Here, Nick, Yeah, similar really both games and say both

43
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 5: came down to the last possession of the game. So

44
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 5: some areas we improved, like you mentioned, didn't turn the

45
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 5: ball over for the most part, took decent care of

46
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 5: the ball. I mean they dropped a couple of interceptions,

47
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 5: but in the end like no turnovers. You know, got

48
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 5: to do a better job and thirn down collectively as

49
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,360
Speaker 5: a team. You know, tackling certainly showed up in a

50
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 5: game against Tampa as well, so.

51
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 4: We can improve in subtlely in some of those areas.

52
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 4: The margins are small in.

53
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 5: This league, so it's just we got to get back

54
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 5: to work and try to find ways to get better.

55
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 5: I mean, we can't sit around and worry about what happened.

56
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 5: What happened happened. So now we just got to focus

57
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 5: on Jacksonville and try to play good, clean football.

58
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 1: Nick, before the game, always asked you three different keys,

59
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: and I asked you about special teams and special teams.

60
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:51,919
Speaker 2: Last night showed up in a big way.

61
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 1: Jalen with the number of returns he had and then

62
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,799
Speaker 1: Yakub with the block punt to really keep the team

63
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 1: in the game.

64
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 4: What were your thoughts about him?

65
00:02:58,280 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 2: What overall they did.

66
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 5: Sure, and we talked before the game was really gonna

67
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 5: come down to third down, explosive plays in the kicking game,

68
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 5: and felt there was an opportunity for us to make

69
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 5: a play in a kicking game. We made multiple plays

70
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 5: so kind of kept us in the game in some respects.

71
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 5: Anytime you block a punt and return the ball, multiple

72
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 5: explosive returns. Got close on a field goal block attempt,

73
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:19,640
Speaker 5: I mean Will kind of went around it and the

74
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 5: ball ended up going kind of underneath them and hit

75
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,919
Speaker 5: the upright, so it made some plays in the kicking game.

76
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 5: We felt that was an area that could potentially played

77
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 5: our advantage and you know, certainly number of positives in

78
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 5: that area. Like I said, we talked about third down

79
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 5: and think just third down is going to be an

80
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 5: important emphasis for for Jacksonville. One of the better third

81
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 5: down teams in the league. And the explosive plays. So

82
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 5: had our moments where we were able to create some.

83
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 5: We didn't give up too too many, but they got

84
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 5: a couple of chunks. So but that's that's what this

85
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 5: league is about and ultimately that's what games come down to.

86
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 3: Ed Ingram was back at guard and that reconfigured the

87
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 3: line again, Nick, and you drive down the field opening

88
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 3: possession and put the ball in the end zone with

89
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 3: the throw from CJ to Nico. After that we had

90
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 3: the field goal drive. But what happened to stall the

91
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 3: offense until the fourth quarter we scored some more points.

92
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean credit to Tampa.

93
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 5: They did some good things defensively, probably could have handled

94
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 5: some looks a little bit better than we did. But

95
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 5: you know, we just got to be able to execute

96
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 5: when when it matters most first two drives, like you mentioned,

97
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 5: you know, positive plays, and really we got a first down,

98
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 5: first and goal and then we got called back with

99
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 5: a holding penalty. So penalty is a little bit of

100
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 5: an issue collectively as a team, and it's just those

101
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 5: plays are potentially going to impact winning in a negative way,

102
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 5: and you know, coming to find out if that was

103
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 5: the case, you know, the other night against Tampa.

104
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely. But offensively, you're seeing some things from young guys.

105
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 1: Your Woody Marx comes in there, does some good things.

106
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: You know, Jayden Higgins has that big catch across the

107
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: middle that makes a play, and obviously Jalen in the

108
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,799
Speaker 1: return game which sparks the offense at that point.

109
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 2: You've seen the things you want from some of your young.

110
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 1: Guys, and obviously they didn't mention Arianta Ersari, who played

111
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 1: all game and left tackle.

112
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, any player, just your job is to take advantage

113
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 5: of your opportunities however they present themselves, and we had

114
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 5: a number players who have done that. We have good players.

115
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 5: We feel like we have a good team. We haven't

116
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,840
Speaker 5: played good enough football to win. I bet that's the

117
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 5: real hell of the NFL. But those young players are

118
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 5: here for a reason and we feel that as they

119
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 5: continue to grow and evolve, and if you're productive, you're

120
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 5: going to get more opportunities. So we'll see how it

121
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 5: all comes to fruition here moving forward.

122
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 3: You mentioned third down on offense and two for nine,

123
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 3: and I know you want to see that number be

124
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 3: a lot better. What goes into that being in third

125
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 3: and short or Hey, if we can convert a couple

126
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 3: more of these than we have three and more carries

127
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 3: or so, and that affects the running game, It effects everything.

128
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, sure, I mean the goal is to try to

129
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 5: stay out of third and longer yardist situations, and number

130
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 5: of those third downs were longer yardist situations. It puts

131
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 5: you in a little bit of a disadvantageous position, and

132
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,839
Speaker 5: Tampa has a pretty good blitz package. They were able

133
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 5: to execute that times where we were there where we

134
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 5: kind of had them accounted for and had them blocked,

135
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 5: but they were still able to make a play. But

136
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 5: third down is usually a product the first and second down,

137
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 5: so all of it's tied together both sides of the ball.

138
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,039
Speaker 1: Really, Nick, I always think about this, go back with me.

139
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,840
Speaker 1: Two thousand and seven, Michigan gets beat by Apple Watch

140
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 1: and State. The next week, still kind of with a

141
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,280
Speaker 1: hangover from that, Oregon comes in or there's a good

142
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 1: football team, but Oregon beats Michigan because it felt like

143
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 1: Michigan was still kind of lingering on that lost applatch

144
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 1: in State. How do you make sure that this loss

145
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 1: last on Monday night doesn't linger it to the week

146
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 1: against Jacksonville.

147
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's just the reality the NFL. I mean, it

148
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 5: takes a certain level of discipline of mental toughness, So

149
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 5: you can't let what happened the previous week impact what's

150
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 5: going to happen the following week. We understand the challenges

151
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 5: that are in front of us. Jacksonville is a good

152
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 5: football team, let's talk about here in a minute. They

153
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 5: certainly improved. So that's part of your job is to

154
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 5: take inventory of what happened in the game, put that

155
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 5: to bed, and then get ready for the next opponent,

156
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 5: which in this case is Jacksonville. So it's going to

157
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 5: take a collective effort. We're confident the people that we

158
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,479
Speaker 5: have in the building, but it's going to take a

159
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,160
Speaker 5: certain level of discipline, commitment, and mental toughness because that's

160
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:54,119
Speaker 5: what this league is about.

161
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 3: Let's talk more about the passing game here, because Nico

162
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,720
Speaker 3: Collins made some big plays for you know that you're

163
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,599
Speaker 3: lacking in the tight end department, but you elevated Harrison Bryant,

164
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:05,279
Speaker 3: Dalton Schultz made some big plays.

165
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,479
Speaker 4: What do you see it over the overall there?

166
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 3: Nick and John talked about the rookies getting that more involved.

167
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 3: Easier said than done sometimes, but they are contributing.

168
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, everybody that's on the field making contribution to some capacity,

169
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 5: and on offensively only had forty six forty seven plays,

170
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 5: so really weren't on the field for that many plays.

171
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 5: So however, many plays that you're allotted go out there,

172
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 5: do you execute your assignment? Do you know your assignment

173
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 5: number one, UM or two. Can you go out there

174
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 5: and execute it and can you make a play when

175
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 5: your number is called? And there are multiple examples of that,

176
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 5: and Orre's multiple examples week one. So we just got

177
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 5: to kind of continue to build on those things and

178
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 5: figure out what are some of the things that we're

179
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 5: doing well and try to accentuate those as we move forward.

180
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, Harrison speaking Harrison Bryant. Harrison had a really nice

181
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 2: block in the touchdown run for Nick. Was he entitled,

182
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 2: did a nice job there. Okay, put the bucks in

183
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 2: the rear view mirror.

184
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 1: Thank god, get that game out, think everybody nice little

185
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 1: gut punch. Didn't feel so good about it. But let's

186
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 1: move forward to the Jacks in Jacksonville. A lot of

187
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 1: the same names, but a new head coach, kind of

188
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 1: a new vision, new everything.

189
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 2: Nick Scouting report of the.

190
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 5: Jackson Yeah, they've been very strategic about how they build

191
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 5: a team. To your point, there's some carryover from previous years,

192
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 5: but then say there's new say leadership with James and

193
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 5: Liam kind of come in and put their imprint on

194
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 5: the team.

195
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 6: You know.

196
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 5: Hired Anthony Campanelli on the defensive side of the ball,

197
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 5: who's a very well respected coach, and then Grant you

198
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 5: Dinsky's the offensive coordinator. You know, Liam calls the plays,

199
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 5: but they kind of work in unison and Heath Farwell

200
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 5: is a carryover from the previous staff. Is one of

201
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 5: the better special teams coaches in the league. So it's

202
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 5: kind of a blend of some new faces and new

203
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 5: philosophies with some some existing players.

204
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,559
Speaker 4: But good football team. They've played really well.

205
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 5: The one thing that they've done they've taken the ball

206
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 5: away from especially defensive, they've taken the ball away. I

207
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 5: think they have seven turnovers. There's six or seven turnovers

208
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 5: over the first two games. They've almost eclipsed their total

209
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,839
Speaker 5: from last season. Starting a defensive side of about really strong,

210
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 5: I would say, formidable front, really good edge players, you

211
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 5: know tray Von and Heinz Allen. Heines Allen's one of

212
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 5: the best defensive players in the league. Consistently causes problems

213
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 5: for the opponent. Big inside with Hamilton and Armstead. They

214
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 5: made a trade there at the at the end of

215
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 5: the training camp acquired Saunders and then they signed guard

216
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 5: Deck in free agency. He is kind of giving them

217
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 5: a good place, kind of a hybrid a defensive end

218
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 5: or outside linebacker, good kicking game player, and then you

219
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 5: know the strategic signing. I would say Jordan Lewis, who

220
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 5: they kind of earmarked to me, the nickel has been

221
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:31,439
Speaker 5: a really good player inside the formation, Tyson Campbell, it's

222
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 5: been a kind of a mainstay of there and a

223
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 5: perimeter and they're kind of rotating opposite him with Jerry

224
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 5: and Jones, and they given Hunter some steps on the perimeter,

225
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 5: a corner and Eric Murray's done a really good job

226
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 5: for them in the first two games, so he's kind

227
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 5: of solidified that safety position him and wingers, so they

228
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 5: do a good job defensively. Carrid a lot of problems

229
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 5: for the offense, and offensively, Liam's done a good job,

230
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:52,960
Speaker 5: I would say, of kind of putting his imprint on

231
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,199
Speaker 5: a system. Trevor's playing really good football. They have really

232
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 5: good skill, they have explosive skill. They're fast. Brian Thomas,

233
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 5: deanmi Brown. They signed free agency Travis when he's on

234
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 5: the offensive side of the ball, I mean he's fast.

235
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 5: I mean the two running backs, I mean Twoton's fast,

236
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 5: Etn's fast, you know, and Strange just kind of emerges

237
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,679
Speaker 5: is the lead tight end and a pretty They made

238
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,320
Speaker 5: a number of changes on the offensive line. Looks like

239
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 5: those players have worked out. And then then the kicking game,

240
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 5: probably three of the best specialists combined between the kicker

241
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 5: little you know, Metistic, the long snapper you know, and

242
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 5: then they're punters. So they do a good job. It's

243
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 5: a good football team. They're one and one. I mean, honestly,

244
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 5: they probably should have beat Cincinnati the other day. Kind

245
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 5: of came down to the end of the game, the

246
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 5: last play where Cincinnati converted the sneak and that would

247
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 5: end up being the difference in the game. So certainly

248
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 5: a challenge playing on the road in the division against

249
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 5: a good football team who's certainly improved.

250
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 4: So we're gonna have to make sure we're ready to go.

251
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 3: Et N I don't know whether to call it a

252
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 3: renaissance or he's finally coming into his own how would

253
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 3: you describe it, because he's making it.

254
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's always been a good player.

255
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 5: Early on, it was kind of injuries, and he's healthy

256
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 5: and he's fast and he's explosive, and they've given him

257
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 5: a number of opportunities. He's their leading rusher week one.

258
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 5: I mean, he had some chunk runs very explosive when

259
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,200
Speaker 5: he hits a whole. Tuton is very similar in that

260
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 5: respect the guy who came out in the draft his

261
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 5: past year. He's fast, I mean really fast. I mean

262
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,839
Speaker 5: they think they felt good about about Touton and Alan

263
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 5: who they drafted, and they were able to move on

264
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 5: from Bigsby. But Etn certainly creates a lot of problems

265
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 5: if there's a crease. I mean, he can hit the

266
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 5: home run at at any point.

267
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: What are you seeing, Nick, and how they're using Travis,

268
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 1: because I know there's so much talk about what Travis

269
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 1: was gonna do. Is he's gonna play both ways, He's

270
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 1: gonna be just transcendent. How are they using Travis on

271
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 1: both sides of the ball.

272
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, they're kind of I'd say this past weekend Cincinnati,

273
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 5: he was a little more balanced defensively and offensive it

274
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 5: looks like and defensively he's playing on a perimeter a

275
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 5: little bit more than situational. It's kind of like we'll

276
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 5: call it the third corner then offensively the third to

277
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 5: fourth receiver, depending on however they're deploying them.

278
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 4: But he's athletic, very athletic.

279
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 5: I mean, he has very good hand eye coordination, runs well,

280
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 5: has good quickness, he's a smart kid. He's a really

281
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 5: good kid, you know, coming out. So they've done a

282
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 5: good job and he's a big part of what they're

283
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 5: doing both now and in the future.

284
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,960
Speaker 3: What's the early review on Trevor Lawrence and the effect

285
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,079
Speaker 3: that Liam Cohne and his staff are having on the

286
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 3: quarter But.

287
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, Liam's done a good job historically over his career

288
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 5: with quarterbacks. And we saw Baker the other night. I mean,

289
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,960
Speaker 5: Baker had a career year last year, you know with Liam,

290
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 5: and Trevor's off to a good start. So doing a

291
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 5: pretty good job taking care of the ball. I mean,

292
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 5: I think he threw one the other day, one or

293
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 5: two the other day, but for the most part, making

294
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 5: good decisions. It's a quarterback friendly system that they employ.

295
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 5: So between him and Grant, you know, they doing a

296
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 5: good job of putting him in a position to succeed.

297
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,719
Speaker 1: You use the word fast a few times as you were, well,

298
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 1: Dimie Brown, he's fast, and Travis hunder Chee's fast and

299
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 1: toot and ran like a four to three to two

300
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,559
Speaker 1: at the combine. It felt like that was their mo o,

301
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 1: like we're going out and we're getting speed. We're gonna

302
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: be as fast on offense as we could possibly be.

303
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:52,959
Speaker 1: How do you see that kind of manifest itself in

304
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:53,560
Speaker 1: the way they play.

305
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, shows up on the tape, shows up on the

306
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 5: tape defensively as well. I mean Eric runs well, Eric's fast.

307
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 5: I mean Travis is fast. I mean Jordan Lewis, you know,

308
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 5: is fast. So I think the overall athleticism, they made

309
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,959
Speaker 5: a concentrated effort your peers to incorporate more athleticism and

310
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 5: speed to kind of compliment some of the bigger players

311
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,440
Speaker 5: on the offensive defensive side of the ball, and they're

312
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 5: seeing the fruits their labor sources speed.

313
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 3: Nick talking about the Texans offense, and you talked about

314
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 3: some things that need improvement, some things that looked good

315
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,680
Speaker 3: against Tampa Bay and even against the Rams.

316
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 4: How important is patients? I know you want to win.

317
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 3: But also we're looking at a work in progress in

318
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 3: many ways because it is a new system and you

319
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,680
Speaker 3: open against two very tough teams. Can you speak to

320
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,560
Speaker 3: that a little bit, the process of developing this offense.

321
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, early part of the season, you're trying to figure out,

322
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 5: really what does your team look like? What do you have?

323
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 5: What do you have schematically, what do you have personnel wise?

324
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 5: There's certain things we're going to do more of, maybe

325
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 5: a little bit more of this, a little bit less

326
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 5: of that, and a lot of that is a feel

327
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 5: and getting a sense for a what the players are

328
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 5: comfortable doing and what they're good at. So it just

329
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 5: it takes work. I mean, there's no other way around it.

330
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 5: I mean there's no magical formula that has required other

331
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 5: than to go out there and do it and to

332
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,559
Speaker 5: execute and to get some positive reinforcement. If there's something

333
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:08,319
Speaker 5: that needs to get fixed, try to work to get

334
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 5: it fixed. That's really what this league is about. And

335
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 5: it's not going to change whether it's week three or

336
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 5: week eighteen.

337
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,559
Speaker 1: Nick, what's the crossover between Grizzard and what he's doing

338
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 1: with the Bucks and what Liam's doing with the Jacks.

339
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 1: Because Grizzard steps in for coing with the Bucks, did

340
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 1: it help it all to face the Bucks to give

341
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: you kind of a little bit of a preview for

342
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 1: the Jags at all?

343
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, it needs to be careful because sometimes it's because

344
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 5: somebody's worked together been in the same system that it's

345
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 5: automatically cutting past. It typically isn't some of the things

346
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 5: that Tampa Bay is doing are different than what they

347
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 5: did last year. Same thing with Jacksonville. Some of the

348
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 5: things that they're doing are different than what Tampa is doing.

349
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 5: So maybe there's a baseline sort of foundation that's in place,

350
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 5: but ultimately comes back to the players. How are they

351
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 5: using those players? Where are they putting them? Because you

352
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 5: don't not every team has the same players, So there's

353
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 5: some crossover some elements, but it's not a basic cutting paste.

354
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 3: Nick players around the league, and no matter the team,

355
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 3: no matter the player developing that player, how much of

356
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 3: it is on coaching versus the individual themselves and what

357
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 3: they need to do and figure out for themselves. I

358
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 3: know it's got to be a marriage of sorts, but

359
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 3: how do you gauge them?

360
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 4: No, it's a great question mark. It's a combination of everything.

361
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 5: It's their player's willingness to absorb the information, to take

362
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 5: coaching and be able to apply it. Everybody has different

363
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 5: mechanisms with which they learn in which they can Some

364
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 5: players would rather go out there and do it physically,

365
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 5: whether it's a walk through or in practice, as opposed

366
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 5: to learning it in a classroom. All a piece of

367
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 5: paper and from a coaching perspective, a lot of this

368
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 5: is psychology and philosophy of what do we need to

369
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 5: do to help the players?

370
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 4: How do we reach them?

371
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 5: So it takes a lot of communication, and it takes

372
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 5: a lot of work, and it's probably not going to

373
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 5: happen overnight.

374
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 4: It normally doesn't. That's not the case.

375
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 5: So but we have a number of players that have

376
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 5: the right attitude, to have the right mindset, and ultimately

377
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 5: it's going to come down to you. You doing your

378
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 5: individual job as best you can on a basis.

379
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: So on a Sunday with a Monday game, on a Sunday,

380
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 1: are you red zone guy? Are you locked into next opponent?

381
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: Are you whatever's on TV just popped on? How do

382
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 1: you handle Sunday? From from your perspective.

383
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, really, it was kind of working on sort of

384
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 5: their next opponent, not so much you're aware maybe what's

385
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 5: going on in the league, but maybe you're focused on

386
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 5: the next few teams that you're gonna play. So whether

387
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 5: it's Jacksonville to Tennessee to Baltimore, and it's really off

388
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 5: the the exos to the video. If the TV was on,

389
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 5: especially on a Sunday, if there's a golf tournament that's on,

390
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 5: They're probably going to be watching it, so you don't

391
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 5: need a little bit of a distraction. I'm not a

392
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 5: big red Zone guy, so I know that it disappoints

393
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 5: a lot of people, but it's not my cup of tea.

394
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 1: No, this has become a very contentious point about people

395
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 1: watching games. I would imagine you can watch red Zone,

396
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 1: especially you know Jack's coming up probably watching that game,

397
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,200
Speaker 1: maybe you know tuned into that. But there are some

398
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 1: people that like they have to, like I have to

399
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: have Red Zone on Sunday.

400
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 5: You know, I could maybe tell you the number of

401
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 5: times on one hait less than one hand.

402
00:16:58,280 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 4: And I've watched Red Zone.

403
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 3: So well, you're probably thinking, I'm gonna wait for the

404
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 3: all twenty two on the games.

405
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:04,959
Speaker 4: I know we're gonna get the video. You're gonna watch it,

406
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 4: so keep the focus there.

407
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 3: Does it drive you kind of crazy? Because I know

408
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,199
Speaker 3: it drives him crazy. Johnny about watching a game on

409
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 3: TV in general, because you don't see the whole development

410
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,400
Speaker 3: development of a play downfield, what's going on with the receivers.

411
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 4: While the quarterbacks say.

412
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,439
Speaker 5: If you're watching an upcoming opponent, there is some merit

413
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:23,920
Speaker 5: to watching the television version of it, but you do

414
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,479
Speaker 5: kind of lose sight of kind of the big picture.

415
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 5: It's kind of you start close and then it pans

416
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 5: out to a certain point. But there might be some

417
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 5: other things that you could pick up. When we talked

418
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,479
Speaker 5: about this on a few shows ago, talking about college

419
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,639
Speaker 5: and watching games live versus watching them on TV and

420
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,879
Speaker 5: then go back and scouting. So wherever you can gain

421
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 5: information from. However you do it, there's merit to it.

422
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 5: You just got to be careful of putting stock too

423
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 5: much stock in one thing versus the other.

424
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 1: Getting out seeing college games. No, you've been doing that,

425
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,199
Speaker 1: that's obviously. It feels like something that you'd like to

426
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 1: do as well, to be able to see a game

427
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 1: up close and see guys up close, whether it's you know,

428
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:01,919
Speaker 1: a game, whether we're on the road just seeing a

429
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,640
Speaker 1: game up close and just kind of getting a read

430
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: on early read on guys.

431
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 2: How how's that going from?

432
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, for sure, it's really top to bottom. It's not

433
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 5: just these certain players. There are certain graded level of players.

434
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,199
Speaker 5: I mean, it's anybody from call it sixty four, sixty

435
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,199
Speaker 5: five down to fifty seven or fifty eight. Those players

436
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 5: it might be late to more free agents. So just

437
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,680
Speaker 5: having a big picture understanding of as many players as possible,

438
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 5: understanding that they're going to be relevant. You know, with

439
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 5: the University of Houston and you know they've done a

440
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 5: good job and they're off to a good start, they're

441
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,199
Speaker 5: gonna have some players who are gonna factor in. And

442
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 5: there's gonna be some of those players that, quite frankly,

443
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:35,880
Speaker 5: we're gonna have in the building in the spring for.

444
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 4: A local day.

445
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 5: So it's just kind of taken inventory of what's out there,

446
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,399
Speaker 5: what's going on, who's playing, how are they playing.

447
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 4: It's really more of a big picture.

448
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,199
Speaker 5: Since as opposed to getting so focused and caught up

449
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 5: on one particular player or one particular play.

450
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,120
Speaker 1: I know that we have a bye week coming up,

451
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 1: and I don't even know if this is a lot.

452
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:55,440
Speaker 1: I know professionals, you others, Scotts from other teams are

453
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,639
Speaker 1: up in the press box for games. But if you

454
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,159
Speaker 1: wanted to go see you know, Seattle, because that'll be

455
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,880
Speaker 1: our opponent after the could you go to that game?

456
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 1: Could you scout that live? Yeah, I don't know if

457
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,960
Speaker 1: you'd want to, but could you do guys out loud? Now,

458
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 1: I mean through the advanced scouting process. I mean, that's

459
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 1: really the only way that you can do it. I

460
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 1: mean there's some other mechanisms that a lot of colleges

461
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: have tried. The penalized accordingly for that, but I mean,

462
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 1: could you go, like, I don't know who Seattle's playing

463
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 1: the week before they play.

464
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,440
Speaker 2: Either, but could you go watch that.

465
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 5: There's certain rules and parameters in place that we have

466
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 5: to comply with. So that's not something that's going to

467
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 5: be on my dance.

468
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 4: That figured Nick at practice this time of year.

469
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 3: We see you during training camp and that's ones against

470
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 3: ones and a lot of action and padded practices and

471
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:36,959
Speaker 3: things like that. How is it for you? What are

472
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,680
Speaker 3: you observing this time of year? Full game week mode,

473
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 3: a lot of look team against the first teamers on

474
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 3: each side of the ball.

475
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:43,879
Speaker 4: How do you approach it?

476
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're just watching that respective side of the ball

477
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 5: who was live and just looking at the play and

478
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 5: the execution and again kind of a big picture. I mean,

479
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 5: you guys see me back there standing. It's really more

480
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,399
Speaker 5: just to kind of see everything that's going on, and

481
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,199
Speaker 5: it's not necessarily that you're watching one particular player or

482
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 5: just watching part of this is just education from a

483
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 5: schematic standpoint. Okay, hey, this player is supposed to be

484
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 5: here on this play, and if he's doing the right thing, great,

485
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 5: And then you go back and watch a practice film.

486
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 5: This way, when you're having discourse or dialogue with the

487
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 5: coaching staff, you can kind of talk in an educated fashion.

488
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 5: So it's kind of stay back there, kind of stay

489
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 5: out of the way, but watch the live sort of

490
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 5: side of the balls as it's happening.

491
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 1: When you go back and you watch practice film, Nick,

492
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,439
Speaker 1: what do you what is it that you focus on?

493
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 1: I mean, you look at everything. Do you look at individuals?

494
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 1: K I know you guys film everything.

495
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 4: Do you look at.

496
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 1: Individual you look at seven on seven? What is it

497
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 1: you kind of focus on what you watch the practice?

498
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,960
Speaker 5: Most of the team team is seven on seven and

499
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,120
Speaker 5: then you know, some of the individual drills if maybe

500
00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,640
Speaker 5: a player's coming back from something, or watch what he's

501
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 5: doing an individual drill hole he's moving.

502
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 4: So it all depends.

503
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 5: But most of the team stuff, offense, defense, and special

504
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 5: teams kind of go through all three phases and just

505
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 5: kind of hey, what happened in practice, how to go

506
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:52,639
Speaker 5: what are some things that we can clean up or

507
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:54,680
Speaker 5: improve and then just move on to the next day.

508
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:56,399
Speaker 3: All Right, we were talking about things you watch, and

509
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 3: we'll wrap it up with this, because I've been in

510
00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 3: your office and you have one of the financial channels,

511
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:04,400
Speaker 3: So is it going to be CNBC, Bloomberg, Fox Business?

512
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,439
Speaker 4: That's the one that for sure. Just a lot of

513
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 4: information up there, and I have.

514
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,919
Speaker 5: The volume down, so it's not necessarily listening to what

515
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 5: they're saying. But if there's a guest, or maybe there's

516
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 5: a CEO or some leader that's on or an analyst

517
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,959
Speaker 5: who you follow that might have some insight. There's certain folks,

518
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,159
Speaker 5: just like anything, you'd like to listen to certain people

519
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 5: for information. And my guy's pretty smart, that woman's pretty smart.

520
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:30,879
Speaker 5: Oh that's pretty good insight. Oh maybe there's an idea

521
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 5: there that causes some generation, whether it's an individual application

522
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,119
Speaker 5: of your portfolio or just a big picture leadership trend

523
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 5: or something else. So try to stay away from the

524
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 5: chaos and some of the newsy items. I love the markets.

525
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 5: I just enjoy following them on a day to day basis.

526
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 5: So part of it is educating myself and just staying informed.

527
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 5: And sometimes it's a good release or an outlet from

528
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:55,399
Speaker 5: like the Red Zone Channel News.

529
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 3: Second next week Nick's picks for stocks I have of those.

530
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 2: Was the last time we had CNBC on our TV.

531
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 3: Never I think I'd even have to make sure we

532
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 3: had it because I wanted to check if Nick was

533
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 3: going to be able to get it. Okay, Nick, thanks

534
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 3: a lot, good luck this week.

535
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 4: Thanks fellas.

536
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 1: Next week, man, we got a lot of things to

537
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 1: talk about with Nick and those those might be good

538
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:14,560
Speaker 1: for a bye week.

539
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 2: We'll circle that, all right, we get back.

540
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:20,399
Speaker 1: Some quarterback report card grades came out from the Bleacher Report,

541
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,160
Speaker 1: marking out discussed, including what they gave to CJ.

542
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 2: Stroud.

543
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 4: Disagree, but we'll.

544
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 1: Discuss it next right here in Texas Access, Chapping everybody,

545
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 1: welcome back this Wednesday edition of Texans All Access from

546
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 1: the Texans Radio studio John Harris alongside the Voice of

547
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 1: the Texans, Mark Vandermer. Mark, I saw this earlier today

548
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,120
Speaker 1: and I thought, I love to talk about the NFL,

549
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 1: not just the Texans, And we've talked a lot about

550
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,840
Speaker 1: the Texans, talked a lot about the game with from

551
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 1: Monday Night with Nick a Sario previewing the Jags a

552
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 1: little bit. I like going around the NFL and talking

553
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 1: around talking about the NFL, and so I saw this

554
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 1: from Bleacher Report.

555
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 2: I thought this was interesting. They do report.

556
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: Cards for each week of the NFL for every quarterback,

557
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,199
Speaker 1: and I thought some of these were interesting. Now the

558
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 1: one I haven't seen, and I'm getting this the exact

559
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 1: same time that you're getting that, and that is CJ.

560
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 1: Stroud from the Texans. And they did this in a

561
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: grade order if you ca Okay, maybe not. It looks

562
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 1: like they did this in alpha. Oh they did an

563
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 1: alphabetical team order.

564
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 4: Oh geez leach.

565
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 1: Your report gave CJ. Stroud a d well for the

566
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 1: first two games. For the game against the Bucks, a

567
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:42,160
Speaker 1: d A d well. Look, you lost the game, right

568
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,719
Speaker 1: lost the game? You didn't You didn't win the game.

569
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,880
Speaker 1: I feel like I feel like Mike McDaniel right now.

570
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 1: You lost the game because you didn't win the game.

571
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: Had you won the game, you wouldn't have lost the game.

572
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 1: John can you follow along?

573
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:56,960
Speaker 4: Look?

574
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 3: I have so many jokes based on that SoundBite with

575
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:01,879
Speaker 3: Mike McDaniel, who I happen to like.

576
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,160
Speaker 4: But my gosh, that's really tough.

577
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 3: Anyway, Look these grades, Johnny, All right, let's say fourth

578
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:10,400
Speaker 3: and ten.

579
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 4: You stop them?

580
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 3: Is it still a D right or does the grade

581
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 3: go up because you actually won the game. And I'm

582
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 3: not blaming the loss on the defense. I mean, there's

583
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 3: plenty of blame to go around. There is plenty to

584
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 3: assign in different areas. Obviously, if you make the stop

585
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:25,920
Speaker 3: on fourth and ten, you win the football game, in

586
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 3: all likelihood, you still have to kill the clock. They

587
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 3: still have timeouts, still got to do those things.

588
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 4: Yep. So who knows what happens.

589
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,879
Speaker 3: Maybe you miss a field goal, you know, who knows,

590
00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 3: Maybe they block a field goal.

591
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 4: Maybe something happens weird.

592
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,920
Speaker 3: Because you can't just take knees because if you took

593
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 3: knees after you make that fourth and ten stop and

594
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 3: had you sacked him, he it was from the thirty

595
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,919
Speaker 3: two or whatever. He's even deeper than that, obviously, So

596
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 3: emy's gonna make that.

597
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's gonna make that. You're gonna go up twenty

598
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,920
Speaker 1: two to fourteen at that point. Now they've got no timeouts,

599
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 1: about a minute left, and they gotta go to length

600
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 1: of the field and score touchdown.

601
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:05,400
Speaker 3: And the two Yeah Texans did it against the Ravens

602
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,400
Speaker 3: on Monday Night Football twice in the fourth quarter sixteen

603
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 3: points bang bang.

604
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:11,920
Speaker 4: Speaking of the speaking of the fourth quarter.

605
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:15,200
Speaker 1: This is what Bleacher Report said and why he ended

606
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:16,440
Speaker 1: up getting the D. I want to see if you

607
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:21,119
Speaker 1: agree with this, Gabe. They talked earlier about the majority

608
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: of Hugh Stereo attack during Monday's contest with on short

609
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 1: quick passes with the receivers getting the majority of the

610
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 1: yardage after the catch.

611
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:28,879
Speaker 2: I don't know about that really.

612
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, I would love that to be the case.

613
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't not the majority, so to speak, but

614
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 3: I'd love that to be a lot of yak and

615
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:35,640
Speaker 3: short passes.

616
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 1: Screen the Woody or I mean check down the Woody

617
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 1: screened Nick. Okay, that's fine, but he also hit X

618
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 1: on that one. We'll have X later on. We'll talk

619
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,680
Speaker 1: to him about this and held a touchdown, yep, touchdown

620
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 1: to Nico. So I don't know that I agree with that,

621
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 1: but they say this. Stroud's fourth quarter performance was disheartening.

622
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 1: With an opportunity to take a three point lead, the

623
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 1: third year quarterback missed Nico Collins in the corner of

624
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 1: the end zone on third down from the one yard line.

625
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 2: Okay, I got it.

626
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,440
Speaker 3: I got an issue with with with missing I got

627
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,440
Speaker 3: an issue as opposed to First of all, there's a

628
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 3: the coverage back there, as I am a column was

629
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,640
Speaker 3: on Nico, like on Nico's hip, like in perfect position.

630
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:18,360
Speaker 2: So the throw had to be absolutely perfect to.

631
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:22,439
Speaker 1: Even have a chance, right, So I don't know that

632
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 1: I agree with that per se. Then he says a

633
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 1: play later, Oh, he's talking about the corner of the

634
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 1: end zone. He's talking the first I'm sorry, he's talking

635
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: with the first one. Nico in the back of the

636
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 1: end zone. Again, a ball you gotta throw in the

637
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:40,439
Speaker 1: back corner of the end zone, and I would, I mean,

638
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,959
Speaker 1: that's a tough catch, but the ball did I mean,

639
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: Nico's trying to get his feet down, it's extended. I mean,

640
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 1: it's a tough catch. It's probably thrown in the only

641
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 1: spot it could have been thrown to be a touchdown.

642
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 3: Maybe on the third yard closer maybe, and it's a

643
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 3: catch maybe maybe. To me, that play looks like a

644
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 3: play where you have a little more field to run

645
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 3: under it, right.

646
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,400
Speaker 4: It looks like it. I don't know, But I don't

647
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 4: know is that the goal?

648
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 3: Is that a third and goal at the one play

649
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 3: or is that a better third and goal from the

650
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 3: eight play?

651
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 2: I can go I think you're I think you're there

652
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:13,360
Speaker 2: on it or.

653
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 4: Even you know, farther upfield.

654
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:21,400
Speaker 1: But the throw itself is and I think that they're

655
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:24,919
Speaker 1: maybe holding CJ to a higher standard like the two throws,

656
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 1: because they say this a play later Strout Stroud airmail

657
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:30,480
Speaker 1: they passed to Collins that didn't even give the offense

658
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:31,440
Speaker 1: a chance a fourth down.

659
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I think the play was the away as

660
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 2: it was, but he makes.

661
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 3: A point in that, Hey, it's fourth down if you

662
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:41,200
Speaker 3: get if you get picked.

663
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, they could run it back, they could run it back.

664
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:47,640
Speaker 3: I good call, But do you want to give somebody

665
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,200
Speaker 3: a chance at a jump ball or something? Maybe that's

666
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 3: a play call thing. Look, it didn't work every Like

667
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 3: I said, plenty of blame to go around when you

668
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:57,880
Speaker 3: don't execute. And you know what I always say about

669
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 3: play calling. If it works, you're a genius. If it

670
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 3: doesn't work, you're a bum. That's what the chorus says

671
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 3: people watching. But I get it, you know they feel

672
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 3: that way. They feel like we didn't execute, so mean

673
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 3: think about it today, Think about it Sunday.

674
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 1: If DJ Jennson and Broncos stay six inches two left

675
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: away from the long snapper, Shane Stikeen is getting grilled

676
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 1: all week while he settled for a sixty yard field

677
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:28,119
Speaker 1: goal but instead fifteen yard penalty moves it up. They

678
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,679
Speaker 1: win twenty nine to twenty eight. Now Shane Stikeen is

679
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 1: the next best play caller ever. Daniel Jones is the greatest,

680
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 1: and away you go. It literally changes if he doesn't

681
00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:39,480
Speaker 1: hit the long snapper.

682
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 3: Let me ask you this, did the offense look better

683
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 3: on Monday night than it did the previous Sunday?

684
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:45,720
Speaker 4: I felt like it did. Yeah, I thought I felt

685
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 4: like it did.

686
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 3: And I know that this is nothing we want to

687
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 3: throw a parade about down You're right, nobody's printing shirts

688
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 3: making rings about that, believe me. But that is an

689
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,240
Speaker 3: improvement from week one to week two. Now you got

690
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,720
Speaker 3: to go to Week three and you playing in the

691
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:04,280
Speaker 3: AFC South against the Jacksonville Jaguars, who played the Bengals

692
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 3: well enough to win, but they didn't win. I mean

693
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 3: that's another one right there. Yeah, that's another one. What

694
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,479
Speaker 3: it could have should have They should have won that

695
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 3: game and they didn't win that game. You pick off

696
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 3: Browning three times and he comes off the bench and

697
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,600
Speaker 3: does that, and you're still unable to win the football game. Yeah,

698
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 3: that is bizarre. Bengals didn't have the lead to late

699
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 3: in that game. It was what it was. You got

700
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 3: to live with it. On to two is not a

701
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 3: death sentence.

702
00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:27,479
Speaker 4: Anyway.

703
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 3: Back to the CJ. Stroud grade thing, I have a fit.

704
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 3: It's Barnwell doing this.

705
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 2: It's bleacher report.

706
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 3: Oh, bleacher report. I feel like this is based on

707
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 3: we thought he's going to be really good or at

708
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 3: least much better this. Yeah, I think there's an expect yeah,

709
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 3: and it hasn't been where it needs to be. To me,

710
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 3: I'm not blaming it all on the absence of Christian Kirk,

711
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 3: but I'm thinking it's a big factor.

712
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that plays a role.

713
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 3: Getting Kirk back is going to be big to this

714
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 3: passing game. Uh, getting healthier. I know no one wants

715
00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 3: to hear it. It's not excuses, it's reasons. And maybe

716
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 3: when they get a little more fortified, have a little

717
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:06,360
Speaker 3: more time together with Nick Keley, maybe things get better.

718
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,160
Speaker 3: There's no guarantee, but maybe things get better. And I'm

719
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 3: hopeful and I want.

720
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:12,680
Speaker 4: To see it. So see it.

721
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 2: You brought up one Trevor Lawrence, Yes, grade?

722
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 4: What was it?

723
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 2: Se minus?

724
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 4: Okay?

725
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 1: See c minus uh the Obviously, the big talking point

726
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:29,880
Speaker 1: there was the interpersonal relationship between he and Liam Cohen.

727
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 1: Through two interceptions, three touchdowns through for two hundred and

728
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 1: seventy one yards twenty four forty two. Lawrence told reporters

729
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 1: after the game, coach is really passionate, which is something

730
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 1: that I've noticed ever since he's been here.

731
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 2: I love that about him, and we'll get fired up.

732
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:45,520
Speaker 2: There's times, and I'm not always that way.

733
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 1: I'm kind of a little more like this, holding his

734
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,479
Speaker 1: hands on a level line, but he's honestly brought a

735
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 1: little bit more of that out of me, which I

736
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 1: think has been good for our offense. That said, as

737
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:01,200
Speaker 1: bleacher Report points out, coen Is have yet stop Lawrence

738
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 1: from making poor decisions. Quarterback has stretches where he plays

739
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 1: really well, then it'll turn the ball over or make

740
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 1: a bad decision. Against the Bengals, he threw a pair

741
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 1: of interceptions, including one in the red zone.

742
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:12,840
Speaker 2: In fact, I think it was right in the in the.

743
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 3: Enze in the end zone, and it was kind of

744
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 3: ridiculous looking. You never know what happens going into those things,

745
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 3: but it looked very Trevor Lawrence at his worst. But

746
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 3: He's made plays this year where he looks like Trevor

747
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 3: Lawrence at his best at times, and that's who he

748
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 3: is right now at home, they're gonna be all fired

749
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,479
Speaker 3: up to beat the Texans. I'm more worried about Etn.

750
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 3: I've said that before, I'll say it again. But as

751
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 3: far as Trevor's grade goes, yeah, the two picks are

752
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:39,959
Speaker 3: a big blemish, huge in a loss where I mentioned

753
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 3: Brownie at three picks. But I feel like David Kelly

754
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:50,080
Speaker 3: right now, Wait, it's you can't you can't wait, what

755
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 3: was it? You can't win when you get four turnovers

756
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 3: even if the other team turns it over five times.

757
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 4: Or something like that. I'm sorry, it wasn't that bad.

758
00:31:58,560 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 4: It wasn't It wasn't that.

759
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:01,080
Speaker 2: I don't remember.

760
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 3: I kind of knew where he was coming from, though, Like, yeah,

761
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 3: I know they're turning it over, but we are too,

762
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 3: and we're a mess.

763
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 4: That was his point.

764
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know we kind of we won the turnover

765
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 3: margin in that game against the Dolphins, right, I.

766
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 4: Believe we did. Oh God, yes, I believe we did.

767
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 3: However, I understood his point that we're still a mess too,

768
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 3: we're coughing it up all over the place.

769
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 4: That's right.

770
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 3: It's not like we're taking their turnovers and turning them

771
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 3: into gold. We turned it into another turnover. That's how

772
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 3: we are. And yeah, so what we were plus one?

773
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 3: We're not that good at football team. See, I'm redoing

774
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:32,120
Speaker 3: the speech for him.

775
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 6: Yeah.

776
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 3: I would have been a great White House Press secretary

777
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 3: no matter who the party is, I could be your guy.

778
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, you definitely could.

779
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 1: Okay, this quarterback was twenty five of thirty eight for

780
00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifteen yards, two touchdowns, three carries for

781
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 1: thirty three yards, and a gutsy twelve yard escape on

782
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 1: fourth and ten, And that would be one Baker Mayfield

783
00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:58,960
Speaker 1: against the Texans.

784
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:01,120
Speaker 2: They gave him a B plus.

785
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 4: How what plus? They gave him a beat plus? Well,

786
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 4: that's just stupid.

787
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 2: If he's not an A, I don't know what is.

788
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:09,200
Speaker 4: I'm sorry.

789
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:11,880
Speaker 3: That is a total eight performance. He got the crap

790
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 3: knocked out of him all game long. He gets hurt,

791
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 3: gets up, talking smack, and that keeps the team going, Oh,

792
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 3: we gotta we gotta win this one. Yeah, he look

793
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 3: at him, Look at him. Look what he's putting his

794
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 3: body on the Okay, even on the scramble he got

795
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 3: tripped up. A lot of guys aren't getting up after that,

796
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,560
Speaker 3: or they're getting up very gingerly scramble.

797
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 2: In which he kind of grabbed his foot or his

798
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 2: ankle at some point. Remember that.

799
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, you guys are like, he's alright. CJ.

800
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 1: Gardner Johnson was standing near him, and apparently that's was

801
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:42,719
Speaker 1: kind of barking at him and break Baker got up,

802
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 1: like huh, So they started getting each other's face.

803
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,360
Speaker 2: I think the Bucks love that.

804
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 4: I think they love that about it. The players doesn't

805
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 4: love that about who does it? You know what I mean?

806
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:54,239
Speaker 4: Love it about him.

807
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 3: Although when I was on with Sean had Set that

808
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 3: morning we were talking about Mayfield, I said, you know,

809
00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 3: I think that the first impression of Baker to a

810
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 3: lot of people, or first impressions in college, they didn't

811
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 3: like him hotthead.

812
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 4: Look what he's doing at midfield. He's if you're.

813
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 3: Not an ou guy tech before that, if you're not

814
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 3: one of those people, you don't like him.

815
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 4: Maybe right.

816
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 1: I don't like shaking hands with Kansas, and Kansas doesn't

817
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 1: you know, I don't like it, doesn't shake his hand.

818
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 3: I think the likability was low. I think the longer

819
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:27,840
Speaker 3: he plays like this, He's going to be beloved because

820
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:28,880
Speaker 3: he is so tough.

821
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 2: You want me to I think, I think tjb okay

822
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 2: with me telling a story. So TJ.

823
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 1: Reeves is my buddy, used to my sideline Carter part

824
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 1: with the Tampa Bay Bucks. He's been doing it for

825
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 1: a long time. He and Jean had been together for

826
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 1: a long time. Right, we had him on last week.

827
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 1: You did a great job interviewing him. He loved talking

828
00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 1: to you. He had a blast. So he said, let

829
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,919
Speaker 1: me tell you about Baker. And so Baker's first year,

830
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:54,600
Speaker 1: one year, four million bucks with the Bucks in twenty

831
00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:57,359
Speaker 1: twenty three, they get if you remember, they beat the

832
00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 1: Eagles in the wildcard round. The Eagles kind of throwing

833
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 1: a towel year and they were just garbage, and but

834
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:04,880
Speaker 1: the Bucks kick the crap out of them. They go

835
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:08,879
Speaker 1: to Detroit and they hang in there with Detroit all

836
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:10,800
Speaker 1: the way to the end. They get the ball back

837
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,839
Speaker 1: and late in the game Baker through interception to Derek

838
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:17,440
Speaker 1: Barnes the gut punts loss. They lose, not going to

839
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:23,360
Speaker 1: the NFC Championship game. Baker's distraught, and so TJ describes

840
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 1: it you know, in the Detroit locker room. Like he's

841
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:31,400
Speaker 1: probably twenty yards away from Baker, right, and TJ is live,

842
00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,319
Speaker 1: so I'm I record everything and I send it back

843
00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 1: to you when I get because it's hard to get

844
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,720
Speaker 1: signal in the locker room, so they were getting a signal,

845
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,799
Speaker 1: and so he does a live from the locker room

846
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 1: report literally live, which I'm like, holy smokes, that's tough. Anyways,

847
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 1: Baker is all the way down there and catch his

848
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 1: eyes with TJ and it's like I'm not bleeping doing

849
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 1: it right now or something like that. You know, he

850
00:35:56,239 --> 00:36:00,279
Speaker 1: just he got off this tough loss. So TJ's totally

851
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,320
Speaker 1: understanding of that. Like, you know, players look at me

852
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:03,919
Speaker 1: when I got the mic after a loss and they're

853
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:05,360
Speaker 1: like they want to take the mic and beat me

854
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:05,719
Speaker 1: with it.

855
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 2: Like I understand it. I totally get it.

856
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:10,440
Speaker 1: So TJ's like, okay, you know, kind of gets a

857
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,799
Speaker 1: handser like okay, it's all right. So he goes and

858
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,839
Speaker 1: he gets a couple of players, He gets Todd Bowles

859
00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 1: and he's he's with balls. He sees Baker come around

860
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:23,080
Speaker 1: the corner coming towards him. He points at him. He's like,

861
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 1: you want me and TJ's like, I guess, yeah, absolutely,

862
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,160
Speaker 1: and so he's like, coach, appreciate it, thank you very much.

863
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:36,880
Speaker 1: Baker walks over to him gives him five seven minutes

864
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 1: live Wow. After all that, and apparently what had happened

865
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,400
Speaker 1: was Baker in the locker room. Our buddy Nelson Luiz

866
00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:46,480
Speaker 1: is the PR directory, former GHOS PR director from a

867
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 1: Rocket's PR director, and he finds Nelson goes, hey, where's TJ.

868
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:51,839
Speaker 2: I got to talk with him.

869
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 4: Oh, so he was reacting in the moment and now

870
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:55,640
Speaker 4: he wants to make it right.

871
00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:57,759
Speaker 1: And then he wanted to make it right him and

872
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:02,840
Speaker 1: I was like, holy crap. That is that's That's the

873
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 1: kind of quarterback. He hasn't always got that impression from

874
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:08,960
Speaker 1: him that there was more there than you know. He's

875
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 1: got kind of that slide talking trash, but behind it

876
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 1: it's an intense competitor, but he seems to care for everybody,

877
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:16,720
Speaker 1: not only on the field.

878
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:18,680
Speaker 2: The fact that he sought out TJ.

879
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:20,560
Speaker 1: And I looked at TJ like, I've never had a

880
00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:22,560
Speaker 1: player do that, Like I never had a player like

881
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:26,319
Speaker 1: request to talk to me. Because he was like I've

882
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,799
Speaker 1: had coaches that have told me after the game to

883
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 1: get bent. I've had that players are usually pretty good.

884
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 1: They don't want to do it, and I could tell

885
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:35,160
Speaker 1: and I try and get a minute out of him

886
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 1: if they've lost all that. But the fact that Baker

887
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:39,880
Speaker 1: that spends four or five minutes with him after he

888
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:41,760
Speaker 1: gets wife, Yeah, I was like that.

889
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:44,280
Speaker 2: That tells you a little bit about about Mayfield.

890
00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:46,239
Speaker 3: But he got a B plus according to this great

891
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,720
Speaker 3: plus who did well Johnny and B plus.

892
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm glad you asked.

893
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 1: There's a certain quarterback in our division, in our division,

894
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 1: in our division, Indiana Jones.

895
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 2: That's right. He ends up getting what do you think

896
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:02,919
Speaker 2: he got?

897
00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:05,480
Speaker 4: He got an A? He did? He got an A.

898
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:09,040
Speaker 4: I think it's a minus he got. Don't want to

899
00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:12,319
Speaker 4: hand out those a's too easily. No, he got an A. Yeah,

900
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:12,759
Speaker 4: you're right.

901
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,440
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones twenty three of thirty four for three sixteen,

902
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:21,200
Speaker 1: one passing touchdown and a rushing touchdown, all of this

903
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:26,120
Speaker 1: against the Denver Broncos, like the Texans, a defense that

904
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: a lot of people thought was one of the top

905
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 1: five in the league.

906
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is notable. Those are really pretty numbers for

907
00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,759
Speaker 3: Daniel Jones. I think it really helps when you have

908
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:41,120
Speaker 3: Jonathan Taylor running at six point five yards per pop,

909
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:44,560
Speaker 3: what for one hundred and sixty five yards? Yeah, Now

910
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 3: he did have a long run in this one, so

911
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,920
Speaker 3: we got skewed numbers. Okay, but I'm not taking the

912
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:51,920
Speaker 3: long run out. He had a sixty eight yard run

913
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:53,960
Speaker 3: in this game. Yeah, all right, let's take it out.

914
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:56,400
Speaker 3: He still gets one hundred. Basically, he still gets one

915
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 3: hundred one hundred on twenty four carries. That's big star

916
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:02,800
Speaker 3: up right there. That's really helping your offense. That's grinding

917
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,799
Speaker 3: the clock, that's grinding the chains. That's all of it.

918
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 3: Daniel Jones capitalizing, You got down to your boy Downs

919
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:16,399
Speaker 3: is playing well. Yeah, he's playing well. And Tyler Warren

920
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:19,880
Speaker 3: is looking pretty good so far too. It's not earth shattering,

921
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:23,279
Speaker 3: but it's really He's a rookie seventy nine yards in

922
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,799
Speaker 3: this game against the Denver defense that's supposed to shut

923
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,359
Speaker 3: people down. Oh, this team, watch out. They're gonna win

924
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 3: that division. They're gonna go to the super Bowl. This

925
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:34,480
Speaker 3: is such a recency bias league Denver. If you weren't

926
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 3: into the Chiefs, Denver was a real sexy pick coming

927
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 3: into the season because your last memory of Denver was

928
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:42,120
Speaker 3: going to Buffalo.

929
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,279
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, that's gonna be hard. Everybody loses up there.

930
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:47,840
Speaker 3: Your last memory of the Chargers is justin Herbert throwing

931
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 3: four picks in this building in a season in which

932
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 3: he only threw three all regular season long. So you're thinking, yeah, Denver, Denver, Denver,

933
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,840
Speaker 3: definitely this team, Sean Payton High.

934
00:39:57,719 --> 00:39:59,400
Speaker 2: Team, the SEMy Sweety team, Yeah, the.

935
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:03,320
Speaker 3: NF super hot with them, Peyton, It's gonna be great.

936
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:06,360
Speaker 4: And they go to Indianapolis and yeah, they should have

937
00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 4: won the game. They won a game, but they didn't

938
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:08,640
Speaker 4: win the game.

939
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,839
Speaker 3: And I'm not saying Denver is a bad team by

940
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:15,960
Speaker 3: any stretch, but it is noticeable. How notable how they

941
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 3: give up three hundred plus through the air and one

942
00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:18,920
Speaker 3: to sixty five.

943
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 4: Of the ground to Jonathan Taylor.

944
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 3: I mean, that's really not exactly what they want to

945
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,359
Speaker 3: be doing. Nope, So we'll see how it all plays out.

946
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:27,799
Speaker 3: But the Chargers are the super sexy team right after

947
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,360
Speaker 3: beating the Raiders, and they beat the Chiefs in Brazil,

948
00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 3: who are the Chiefs right now? Not really sure. They

949
00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 3: don't look like who they were, looks like they're on

950
00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:37,640
Speaker 3: the way down. But I'm not gonna write them off.

951
00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 3: They're rowing two and they're the freaking Chiefs.

952
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:42,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're gonna get to them and their quarterback in

953
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:46,480
Speaker 1: a second. Listen to this drive. Ten drives for the Colts.

954
00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:50,399
Speaker 1: Want you to tell me what word is missing? Field goal,

955
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:55,640
Speaker 1: field goal, touchdown downs, touchdown, end of half, field goal downs,

956
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 1: field goal, field.

957
00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:59,000
Speaker 4: Goal, no punting, Rigbert does.

958
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:04,320
Speaker 1: Sanchez has not punted this year. He's he's not punted

959
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 1: this year, maytag repair man dated reference. I'm just gonna

960
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 1: say it anyway. Yeah, fourteen of seventeen offensive drives have

961
00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:16,280
Speaker 1: resulted in scores for the Colts.

962
00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:19,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's looking pretty good right now with this group.

963
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:22,800
Speaker 2: Now, do you remember the first two games.

964
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:26,000
Speaker 4: Of last year, Anthony Richardson.

965
00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:29,040
Speaker 1: Clink Kubiak and the New Orleans Saints had just gone

966
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 1: into Dallas.

967
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 4: Oh you're talking about and put up.

968
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 2: In forty burger.

969
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:34,240
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, the Saints were going to the super Bowl.

970
00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:38,239
Speaker 1: They had had two weeks of forty plus points, and

971
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:40,520
Speaker 1: by mid season it imploded.

972
00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:42,719
Speaker 3: I was hapry for Kubiak, thinking, oh, he's gonna get

973
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:46,160
Speaker 3: any job totally. It's gonna be big son as a

974
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:46,760
Speaker 3: head coach.

975
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:50,239
Speaker 1: Totally. So here's the other side of this. Listen to

976
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:57,040
Speaker 1: the Broncos nine drives, touchdown, punt, touchdown, touchdown, punt, touchdown,

977
00:41:57,120 --> 00:42:03,920
Speaker 1: punt interception, a mad one field goal. So it didn't

978
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:07,400
Speaker 1: like the Colts are bringing the eighty five Bears to

979
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:10,360
Speaker 1: the party either. No, that was a shot. That was

980
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:12,600
Speaker 1: a shootout. Now, they played the Dolphins in the first one.

981
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 1: The Dolphins stunk and they do stink. But that Colts

982
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 1: defense is not It's lou Ana Roumo. It's a good defense.

983
00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 1: He's a good defensive coordinator. It's not great. We got

984
00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 1: to get our offensive house in order. But the Colts

985
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:30,120
Speaker 1: face the Titans this week, so more than likely three

986
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 1: and zero. But we'll see what Daniel Jones does with

987
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:37,040
Speaker 1: that one. But Daniel Jones a on his report card

988
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:43,839
Speaker 1: against the Denver Broncos the hottest thing in America. All right,

989
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:45,360
Speaker 1: you mentioned Mahomes, last one will do?

990
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 4: Yep.

991
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:50,600
Speaker 1: Mahomes against the Eagles sixteen of nineteen for one hundred

992
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 1: and eighty seven yards, a touchdown and a pick. Seven

993
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:57,360
Speaker 1: carries for sixty six yards and a touchdown.

994
00:42:58,239 --> 00:42:58,719
Speaker 2: They lost.

995
00:42:58,760 --> 00:42:59,240
Speaker 4: The Eagles.

996
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:04,920
Speaker 1: Chiefs are also owed to Patrick Mahomes earned a C plus.

997
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:09,399
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, C minus, C minus the same as Trevor Lawrence. Now,

998
00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:14,239
Speaker 1: I do think that there is some expectation built in,

999
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:17,719
Speaker 1: like with CJ. With Trevor, you kind of really don't

1000
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:20,279
Speaker 1: know Daniel Jones like anything he does at this point.

1001
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 1: I mean, look, he's been really, really good. But against Eagles,

1002
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 1: Eagles have a good, good defense C minus For Patrick Mahomes.

1003
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:31,200
Speaker 3: That running number stands out. And I watched a bit

1004
00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:33,239
Speaker 3: of that game. He was running the ball. He was

1005
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 3: and we've always talked about this, that's such a weapon

1006
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:38,520
Speaker 3: for him. Yep, He's going to it a lot more.

1007
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:42,200
Speaker 3: It feels like because he needs to. They don't have

1008
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:45,080
Speaker 3: the horses to catch the football that they used to

1009
00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:48,480
Speaker 3: and if they're not running it, well it's what else

1010
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 3: are you gonna do? And Kelsey still makes plays. Kelsey

1011
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,200
Speaker 3: still out there. Did you see Taylor Swift and how

1012
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 3: they barricaded her and how they walked her from and

1013
00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:03,000
Speaker 3: not they had this moving on wheels so people couldn't

1014
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:04,520
Speaker 3: take pictures, which is weird to me.

1015
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:07,239
Speaker 4: Oh do you think she's showing just kidding them?

1016
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:08,320
Speaker 5: Oh?

1017
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 4: I went there.

1018
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:14,439
Speaker 3: Conspiracy theater Texans all access All right?

1019
00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:17,279

1020
00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:19,920
Speaker 1: NFL next, it definitely is not showing up in the

1021
00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:22,440
Speaker 1: injury report. We'll give you some thoughts on what we

1022
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:24,880
Speaker 1: saw at practice and what the injury report looks like,

1023
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:28,400
Speaker 1: and some news from the NFL. Is Taylor Swift pregnant?

1024
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 1: Ask Mark Vandermier. No, we're just kidding, just kidding, just kidding.

1025
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:34,400
Speaker 1: We got more next right here in Texans All Access.

1026
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:39,280

1029
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:48,320
Speaker 1: point in the program. On a Wednesday, we got to

1030
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 1: take a look at a god awful injury report.

1031
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:57,239
Speaker 2: But I will say it's improving. It's not great, but

1032
00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:01,640
Speaker 2: it's improving a little bit. Texans only had.

1033
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:07,200
Speaker 1: One DMP today, unfortunately, that is Jalen Smith, the rookie

1034
00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:10,440
Speaker 1: corner dealing with hamstring. Now, the fortunate part of that

1035
00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:15,440
Speaker 1: is we've seen guys on this report, mainly Jake Andrews,

1036
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:21,800
Speaker 1: Braxton Barrios, Christian Kirk. They were all limited participants. Coach

1037
00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:26,359
Speaker 1: at the mike, I think it's press conference. A couple

1038
00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:28,680
Speaker 1: days ago, Tuesday. I'm trying to remember what day that was,

1039
00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:31,480
Speaker 1: probably Tuesday. Said that Kirk and Barrios were at least

1040
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 1: on track. Seeing Jake Andrews get back out, there was

1041
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:38,720
Speaker 1: great news. Now will they play, don't know no idea

1042
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,160
Speaker 1: about that, but they were limited.

1043
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:42,120
Speaker 2: That was good news.

1044
00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 1: Now, if there is any bad news, if you will,

1045
00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 1: I mentioned Jalen Smith, the.

1046
00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:50,160
Speaker 2: DB's dealing with some things.

1047
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:53,799
Speaker 1: Kamari Lasser was a limited participant dealing with the knee.

1050
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:01,120

00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:03,879
Speaker 1: the game. Darryl Taylor with a hit. Those guys were

1052
00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:07,719
Speaker 1: all limited participants. During the viewing, we saw all those

1053
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,440
Speaker 1: guys out there. So if there is some good news,

1054
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:13,400

Speaker 1: did not participate. Hunter long tight end, very athletic tight end.

1059
00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:33,600

Speaker 1: and Brian Thomas Junior. Has been a lot of talk

1067
00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:03,600
Speaker 1: about Brian Thomas this week the game performance against Cincinnati,

1068
00:47:04,239 --> 00:47:07,360
Speaker 1: and there was some that question whether Brian Thomas Junior

1069
00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:10,080
Speaker 1: was wanting to go across the middle. Liam Cohen did

1070
00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:12,560
Speaker 1: not shoot that down. After the game. There's been a

Speaker 1: do those things.

1076
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:25,799
Speaker 2: This defense that's in this building.

1077
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 1: Is not the one you want to see because they

1078
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 1: they could take swarm to a whole different level. But

1079
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:38,759
Speaker 1: that is your injury report for Wednesday. Good news and

1080

00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:47,319
Speaker 1: Kamari and Jalen Darrow back on track and hopefully get

1082
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:49,120
Speaker 1: Jalen back as well, and try and get this injury

1109
00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:58,120
Speaker 3: to be excited you're going home to play a pro

1110
00:48:58,160 --> 00:48:58,879
Speaker 3: football game.

1111
00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:02,759
Speaker 7: Yeah, for sure, definitely excited. I mean, who ever thought, right?

1112
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:04,640
Speaker 7: You know, since I was you know, a child, man

1113
00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:06,560
Speaker 7: dreams of playing in the Jackson Stadium and now you

1114
00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:08,520
Speaker 7: know I get to go against him. Is great?

1115
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:09,759
Speaker 2: So old I am.

1116
00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:13,160
Speaker 1: His school didn't even exist until my last year of

1117
00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:16,160
Speaker 1: coaching Aaron Jackson though, Marcham Trail. Yeah, and I remember

1118
00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:18,520
Speaker 1: we always used to say, man, if they can get

1119
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:20,960
Speaker 1: some if they can get some schools down Saint John's County, WI,

1120
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:23,359
Speaker 1: because all the time was Nice. Nice was the only

1121
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:26,640
Speaker 1: one and the most famous graduate from Nice High School

1122
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:30,080
Speaker 1: is Tim Yeah, all the way down in St. John's County.

1123
00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:31,480
Speaker 1: In fact, he actually lived on the west side. But

1124
00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 1: it's home school formers. Yeah exactly. X. How's how's your

1125
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 1: game coming together. Third year slowing down for you at all?

1126
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:40,880
Speaker 4: On the field?

1127
00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:44,680
Speaker 1: Are you seeing things better earlier, quicker all that because

1128
00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:45,760
Speaker 1: of your experience.

1129
00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:48,600
Speaker 7: I definitely think so. It's definitely slowing down for me.

1130
00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:51,480
Speaker 7: You know, I'm just actually out there playing with confidence

1131
00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 7: and really just you know, trying to make the plays

1132
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:56,560
Speaker 7: whenever they come to me. And you know, I've been

1133
00:49:56,600 --> 00:49:58,080
Speaker 7: able to so far. So I just got to keep

1134
00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 7: it going and be consistent. But I'm really happy with

1135
00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:02,000
Speaker 7: how you know, my first two games have went.

1136
00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:05,239
Speaker 3: Ye, what's practice like this time of year for you?

1137
00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:08,080
Speaker 3: Because we see in training camp it's ones against ones

1138
00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:10,920
Speaker 3: and a lot of matching up against the dbs that

1139
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,560
Speaker 3: are going to start the game for the Houston Texans.

1140
00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:16,640
Speaker 3: Very physical. How physical is it this time of year

1141
00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:18,759
Speaker 3: now that you're in the regular season and you're going

1142
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:20,480
Speaker 3: up against the look team and things like that.

1143
00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:24,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's definitely still competitive out there. You know, obviously

1144
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:27,360
Speaker 7: they probably you know, laid back a few when you

1145
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:29,200
Speaker 7: know the ball's up in the air or you know

1146
00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:30,719
Speaker 7: it's like a you know, a fifty to fifty ball,

1147
00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:33,560
Speaker 7: but when it comes, you know, like any intermediate wrestler,

1148
00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:34,880
Speaker 7: you know they're on your back and you got to

1149
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:35,799
Speaker 7: make a contest to catch.

1150
00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:36,840
Speaker 4: You know.

1151
00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:38,360
Speaker 7: I think that's one of the reasons why you know,

1152
00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:41,279
Speaker 7: our receivers has done so well, uh in years past,

1153
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,279
Speaker 7: is because how are we practice and how you know,

1154
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:45,439
Speaker 7: good the practice squad gives us.

1155
00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:48,759
Speaker 1: Looks EXIT was watching a game back last night. I

1156
00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:51,000
Speaker 1: want to once you walk me through if you don't mind,

1157
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:54,399
Speaker 1: you're running around. I think you're going from right from

1158
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:57,000
Speaker 1: their sideline to our sideline. But it looked like you

1159
00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:59,040
Speaker 1: were running a route in the middle. But then as

1160
00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:00,600
Speaker 1: you looked in the middle, you kind of just kept

1161
00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:02,840
Speaker 1: going and CJ it was almost like CJ was giving you, like,

1162
00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:05,759
Speaker 1: keep going without pointing at you. Can you take us

1163
00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:08,279
Speaker 1: through that that reception kind of what your responsibility was,

1164
00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:09,919
Speaker 1: where you're supposed to go to, and how you guys

1165
00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:11,120
Speaker 1: linked up to make that reception.

1166
00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:14,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, actually I probably should have just kept it on

1167
00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:16,680
Speaker 7: the outside of the defender. I should have never dived

1168
00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:18,640
Speaker 7: in as far as I did. Yeah. Uh so they

1169
00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:21,120
Speaker 7: got me there, but uh once, you know, once I

1170
00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:23,880
Speaker 7: dived in and he just shoved me and kind of

1171
00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:26,400
Speaker 7: I saw that the middle was collapsed. Uh you know,

1172
00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:28,719
Speaker 7: you can just feel you know grass, Yeah, you can

1173
00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:31,520
Speaker 7: just feel an open area and seven, you know, thought

1174
00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:34,600
Speaker 7: the same thing, and really you know, just ran to

1175
00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:36,880
Speaker 7: the open grass uh in seventh place to you know,

1176
00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:38,520
Speaker 7: a great ball and you know we were able to

1177
00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:40,080
Speaker 7: get a little nice little explose.

1178
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:42,320
Speaker 3: How much does that go on when you're supposed to

1179
00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:44,960
Speaker 3: run this route but clearly you got to make an

1180
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:47,279
Speaker 3: adjustment like you did in the playoff game, a heck

1181
00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:49,640
Speaker 3: of an adjustment. How does that go down for you

1182
00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:52,239
Speaker 3: X when you're looking back into the backfield or how

1183
00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:53,520
Speaker 3: does that awareness play out?

1184
00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:55,719
Speaker 7: Yeah? Uh, you know, I think some of it, you know,

1185
00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:58,880
Speaker 7: it's just like a feel thing sometimes having you know

1186
00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:02,240
Speaker 7: the same connection and communication you know, or I already

1187
00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:04,920
Speaker 7: have like seeing it beforehand if a play breaks down.

1188
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:07,120
Speaker 7: But some of it's really just like you know, just

1189
00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:10,960
Speaker 7: really scramble drill some of it. You know, once you

1190
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:12,920
Speaker 7: kind of you know, realize that your eternal clock has

1191
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:14,920
Speaker 7: gone off in your head, you kind of you know,

1192
00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:17,239
Speaker 7: look back and you see maybe CJ running or maybe

1193
00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:19,520
Speaker 7: you see seven just standing in the pocket. You know,

1194
00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:21,120
Speaker 7: it's kind of you know, we have you know, our

1195
00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:24,160
Speaker 7: routine drills that we do really just kind of make

1196
00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:24,640
Speaker 7: it happen.

1197
00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:27,720
Speaker 2: You have played every wide receiver position on the field.

1198
00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:29,239
Speaker 1: And I've said this to Mark, I've said it a

1199
00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:32,879
Speaker 1: few times X the fact that at practice, even training

1200
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:36,240
Speaker 1: can't practice. I always see you a sprint your position,

1201
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,759
Speaker 1: but then you help everybody else get lined up. And

1202
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:42,680
Speaker 1: I always say that because it's like, man, these receivers

1203
00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:44,040
Speaker 1: maybe not know what to do, but then they go

1204
00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:45,680
Speaker 1: to your side. You're like, no, no, you're you're off

1205
00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:47,680
Speaker 1: the ball, you're on the ball. No, you're here, you're wider.

1206
00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:49,399
Speaker 1: Where where does that come from?

1207
00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:49,600
Speaker 6: Max?

1208
00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:52,000
Speaker 1: That you you kind of know each and every wide

1209
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:53,840
Speaker 1: receiver position like the back of your hand, that you

1210
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:55,080
Speaker 1: can help everybody else out there.

1211
00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:58,160
Speaker 7: Yeah. Uh, it took me a while to get there.

1212
00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:00,360
Speaker 7: I had some struggles in you know, my like my

1213
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:03,319
Speaker 7: first really my really my first year rookie year, like

1214
00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:06,279
Speaker 7: just learning you know, the formations and everything. Second year

1215
00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:08,719
Speaker 7: kind of slowly started to click for me. And then

1216
00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:10,759
Speaker 7: this thirty year just like like I said, just really

1217
00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:13,040
Speaker 7: confidence and you know and just knowing everything and not

1218
00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:16,680
Speaker 7: second guessing myself. And really it just kind of you know,

1219
00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:21,080
Speaker 7: Ben kind of you know, cous McDaniels, really, uh, you know,

1220
00:53:21,120 --> 00:53:24,080
Speaker 7: you really tests me on knowing the positions. So you know,

1221
00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:25,680
Speaker 7: I give a lot of credit to him on you know,

1222
00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:27,279
Speaker 7: you know, forcing me to you know, put my head

1223
00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:29,680
Speaker 7: in the playbook and understand you know, the concepts and

1224
00:53:29,719 --> 00:53:30,440
Speaker 7: our formations.

1225
00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:33,719
Speaker 3: Yep, Demiko Ryan says, the offense is really close, really

1226
00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:36,360
Speaker 3: close to breaking through. Obviously got it to the end

1227
00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:38,200
Speaker 3: zone a couple of times on Monday night that was

1228
00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:41,240
Speaker 3: much better than the game before. Looking for another step forward,

1229
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:43,879
Speaker 3: How close are you? How do you feel in that

1230
00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:47,080
Speaker 3: department you're closer to getting to where you want to be.

1231
00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:49,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think we are. I mean I think you know,

1232
00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:51,840
Speaker 7: Demico hit it on the head. To be honest with you,

1233
00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:54,479
Speaker 7: We're very close. You know, it's just the minor things

1234
00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:58,000
Speaker 7: right now that we have to fix, you know, really

1235
00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:00,000
Speaker 7: just you know, trusting it in everybody, you know, trust

1236
00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:04,400
Speaker 7: every play and really just executing all the details and

1237
00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:06,440
Speaker 7: you know, understanding that. You know, if we just do

1238
00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:08,799
Speaker 7: these one little thing that we missed, you know, it's

1239
00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:10,600
Speaker 7: probably a different ball gaming. As you know, it's a

1240
00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:11,720
Speaker 7: different outcome on the play.

1241
00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:15,640
Speaker 1: You've got a couple of cyclone brethren in this, uh,

1242
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:18,680
Speaker 1: which I'm sure nobody out there knew that every time

1243
00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:20,640
Speaker 1: we talked about the receivers this year. We're like, Okay,

1244
00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:23,319
Speaker 1: well it's gonna be Christian and it's gonna be Nico

1245
00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:25,120
Speaker 1: and the Cyclones. We always kind of talk about, you know,

1246
00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:26,799
Speaker 1: the three of you. How do you think the two

1247
00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:31,080
Speaker 1: rookies have done Jed Uh, Jayala Nolan, jene Haiggins great.

1248
00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:32,239
Speaker 7: I think they've done great.

1249
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:32,680
Speaker 8: Uh.

1250
00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:34,560
Speaker 7: And you really just seen them progress, you know, from

1251
00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:36,799
Speaker 7: training camp all the way until now.

1252
00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:37,399
Speaker 4: Uh.

1253
00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:41,560
Speaker 7: And you know it, everyone's time is different. Everyone's gonna

1254
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:44,600
Speaker 7: grasp things a little bit different, maybe faster or slower.

1255
00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:45,319
Speaker 6: Uh.

1256
00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:47,120
Speaker 7: And you know, in their case, I think they're grasping

1257
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:50,040
Speaker 7: things very fast, and I think they're playing with confidence.

1258
00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:51,480
Speaker 7: And you know, I think that's the number one thing

1259
00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:53,080
Speaker 7: that you have to do as a rookie. You you

1260
00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:54,680
Speaker 7: just have to go out there and play with confidence.

1261
00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:57,960
Speaker 7: You know, you might make mistakes, nobody's perfect, but you know,

1262
00:54:58,000 --> 00:54:59,520
Speaker 7: as long as you just go out there, play fast

1263
00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:01,879
Speaker 7: and play with confidence, man, it's all going to figure

1264
00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:02,399
Speaker 7: yourself out.

1265
00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:05,600
Speaker 3: All right, Let's do a little Iowa State commercial here here,

1266
00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:08,560
Speaker 3: because Matt Campbell has a heck of a program and

1267
00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:10,959
Speaker 3: in an era where a lot of people thought maybe

1268
00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:15,120
Speaker 3: he would go somewhere else, he stays there. Jalen talked

1269
00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:17,960
Speaker 3: about how important that was to him. What about you,

1270
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:19,960
Speaker 3: What does it mean to you that he's still there

1271
00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:21,560
Speaker 3: and the Cyclones to do it so well?

1272
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:24,319
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean Coach Campbell was just a man of

1273
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:27,919
Speaker 7: his word. And you know, we have like a saying

1274
00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:31,479
Speaker 7: in the Iowa stay you know, it's a forever, forever loyal, okay,

1275
00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:34,719
Speaker 7: ever true, and I think you know he he embodies

1276
00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:38,960
Speaker 7: that statement. And man, I'm just so happy for Coach

1277
00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:41,200
Speaker 7: Campbell to have you know, that that success. Now, even

1278
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:43,960
Speaker 7: you know, with me being gone, you know, I'm still

1279
00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:45,759
Speaker 7: happy to see all of the players there that you know,

1280
00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:48,760
Speaker 7: are reaping the rewards of you know what other people

1281
00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:50,760
Speaker 7: had to you know, lay down and you know, build

1282
00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:53,000
Speaker 7: the foundation for for that program. So to see it,

1283
00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:55,600
Speaker 7: you know, come to Fruition and still you know, not

1284
00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:58,160
Speaker 7: even at the top of it yet it's great.

1285
00:55:58,160 --> 00:56:00,520
Speaker 1: It's great to see he loves you, man, I mean

1286
00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:03,360
Speaker 1: there's no doubt like when I well, I went to

1287
00:56:03,400 --> 00:56:06,440
Speaker 1: Big twel media days and I saw the SID and

1288
00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:08,480
Speaker 1: I just said, hey, you think Coach Campbell would talk

1289
00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:10,120
Speaker 1: to me a couple of minutes about X and just

1290
00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:11,759
Speaker 1: kind of give us a background on it, and he goes,

1291
00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:14,320
Speaker 1: oh absolutely. I was like, just let him do with

1292
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:18,239
Speaker 1: media scrum And we talked for two minutes on air,

1293
00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:20,520
Speaker 1: and then he went for like ten minutes asking how

1294
00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:22,520
Speaker 1: you were doing, telling you that you know how much

1295
00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:24,319
Speaker 1: you got. I mean to have a coach that you know,

1296
00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 1: cares that much, I gotta imagine that means a lot

1297
00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:29,200
Speaker 1: to the Iowa State guys as well.

1298
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:31,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, it definitely does, man. And it just you know,

1299
00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:34,040
Speaker 7: he always like said that, you know, it's bigger than

1300
00:56:34,040 --> 00:56:37,040
Speaker 7: football with him. Yeah, and you know, like that little

1301
00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:38,200
Speaker 7: instant right there proves it.

1302
00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:38,440
Speaker 5: Man.

1303
00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:40,239
Speaker 7: So like it's just it's so much left for coach

1304
00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:42,160
Speaker 7: Campbell with so much respect for the man he is

1305
00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:45,279
Speaker 7: the coach he is, and like just to know that

1306
00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:47,080
Speaker 7: I always have him in, you know, in my corner

1307
00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:51,680
Speaker 7: and he's always rooting for me. You know, it makes

1308
00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:52,560
Speaker 7: a difference in somebody.

1309
00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:55,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna move on from the Iowa State commercial

1310
00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:58,640
Speaker 3: to the Jacksonville commercial as an area, not the Jaguars,

1311
00:56:58,760 --> 00:57:00,839
Speaker 3: but just as a place to be a place to live,

1312
00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:01,879
Speaker 3: a place to grow up.

1313

Speaker 4: Yeah.

1336
00:57:49,840 --> 00:57:52,880
Speaker 3: Do you fish like the other cyclones? No, So you're

1337
00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:54,440
Speaker 3: not gonna get involved with that composition.

1338
00:57:54,560 --> 00:57:55,760
Speaker 7: No, No, not at all.

1339
00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:57,920
Speaker 1: But you know what he does do on Fieldhouse. You

1340
00:57:57,960 --> 00:57:59,160
Speaker 1: and I've talked about this a little bit.

1341
00:57:59,240 --> 00:58:02,240
Speaker 2: Let's put you. Okay, So they did this great thing.

1342
00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:04,400
Speaker 1: Now it was you and I can't remember who who

1343
00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:06,760
Speaker 1: you were doing it with, and I think you did NFL.

1344
00:58:06,920 --> 00:58:09,720
Speaker 1: And they gave like a fantasy team rosters, a quarterback,

1345
00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:11,760
Speaker 1: running back, two wide receivers, a tight end, and.

1346
00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:13,680
Speaker 4: A current or all time.

1347
00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:14,919
Speaker 2: It was all time, I think.

1348
00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:19,880
Speaker 1: And so they spin the spin the dial and then

1349
00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:22,600
Speaker 1: he would have to pay, okay, like Cowboys, and okay,

1350
00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:25,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take running back Ezekiel Elliott.

1351
00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:28,160

01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:02,120
Speaker 7: Where there's a lot of good ones and I'm not

1394
01:00:02,160 --> 01:00:04,480
Speaker 7: even gonna lie to I'm thinking about a few right now.

1395
01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:06,720

01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:12,959

1402
01:00:21,760 --> 01:00:23,360
Speaker 2: I sprung that on you, so having to do that,

1403
01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:24,000
Speaker 2: it's pretty tough.

1404
01:00:24,040 --> 01:00:26,280
Speaker 7: So you definitely I appreciate that. I appreciate that.

1405
01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:27,760

1407
01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:28,880

Speaker 4: Young dude.

1413
01:00:35,320 --> 01:00:35,440
Speaker 6: Man.

1414
01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:37,720
Speaker 1: He has some great things for this team, special teams,

1415
01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:40,680
Speaker 1: wide receiver all over the field. Hopefully he will do

1416
01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:43,000
Speaker 1: some of those in front of friends and family on

1417
01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:45,800
Speaker 1: Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

1418
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:48,080
Speaker 2: Speaking of the Jags, it's side for a man behind

1419
01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:48,480
Speaker 2: the MICUs.

1420
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,000
Speaker 1: That's when Mark Vandermier, the voice of the Texans, sits

1421
01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:53,320
Speaker 1: down with a voice on the other side. It's one

1422
01:00:53,360 --> 01:00:56,480
Speaker 1: we know very very well, good friend of mine. Since

1423
01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:59,760
Speaker 1: the early nineties. He is the voice of the Jaguars.

1424
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:03,480
Speaker 1: Frank Frjie joins Mark Vaneruin next right here on Texans

1425
01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:11,160
Speaker 1: All Access. Welcome back to this Wednesday Nation of Texans

1426
01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:15,120
Speaker 1: All Access from the hun Day Texans Radio Studio. Appreciate

1427
01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:17,920
Speaker 1: Xavier Hutchinson for stepping in studio today. I had a great,

1428
01:01:17,960 --> 01:01:20,640
Speaker 1: great time talk with that young man. I was state

1429
01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:25,120
Speaker 1: cyclone Bartram trail Bear. I think, like I told him

1430
01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:30,000
Speaker 1: in the interview, his school opened my last year in Jacksonville,

1431
01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:32,479
Speaker 1: and we knew they were gonna be good. And they've

1432
01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:34,920
Speaker 1: spit out some really good players and some great athletes,

1433
01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:38,600
Speaker 1: great people like Xavier Hutchinson. Now, a guy that has

1434
01:01:38,640 --> 01:01:43,400
Speaker 1: been there for a long time, grew up there is

1435
01:01:43,840 --> 01:01:47,240
Speaker 1: the face of Jacksonville media. I mean he was the

1436
01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:51,520
Speaker 1: guy when I lived there back in the nineties early

1437
01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:52,560
Speaker 1: two thousands.

1438
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:55,720
Speaker 2: If I ever need anything, I went to Frank Frangie.

1439
01:01:56,480 --> 01:01:57,800
Speaker 2: Great media.

1440
01:01:59,440 --> 01:02:01,400
Speaker 1: I don't say for that's the wrong word to use,

1441
01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:04,520
Speaker 1: but when you say Jacksonville media, Frank Fraanjie is a

1442
01:02:04,600 --> 01:02:07,760
Speaker 1: name that comes to mind and just a salt of

1443
01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:11,280
Speaker 1: the earth person has been doing it for a very

1444
01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:13,320
Speaker 1: long time. Became the voice of the Jags back at

1445
01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:14,360
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen.

1446
01:02:14,560 --> 01:02:15,120
Speaker 4: I believe.

1447
01:02:15,920 --> 01:02:17,479
Speaker 1: I think it was the first year he took over

1448
01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:20,040
Speaker 1: as the voice of the Jaguars as I took over

1449
01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:22,240
Speaker 1: as a silent reporter for the Texans.

1450
01:02:22,280 --> 01:02:24,840
Speaker 2: So this is always kind of a weird one in

1451
01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:25,320
Speaker 2: that too.

1452
01:02:26,280 --> 01:02:29,600
Speaker 1: My very good friend Mark vandermir with Frank Franjie, guy

1453
01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:33,000
Speaker 1: I've known for very a very long time, sat down

1454
01:02:33,240 --> 01:02:37,640
Speaker 1: discussed this matchup that will take place Sunday in Duval County.

1455
01:02:37,640 --> 01:02:40,760
Speaker 3: Joining us now in Texans Radio. It's Frank Frangie, friend

1456
01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:44,880
Speaker 3: of the show, Frank the voice of the Jacksonville Jaguars.

1457
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:47,200
Speaker 4: Frank, how's it going with my friend Mark?

1458
01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:48,840
Speaker 6: I'm doing well. How are you? How are things in

1459
01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:49,720
Speaker 6: Houston these days?

1460
01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:52,360
Speaker 3: Well, you know, zero and two it's not that good, Frank,

1461
01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:53,400
Speaker 3: to be honest with you.

1462
01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:55,120
Speaker 4: So we're looking forward to this one.

1463
01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:56,840
Speaker 3: But I don't know if we should be looking forward

1464
01:02:56,880 --> 01:02:58,880
Speaker 3: to it because the Jags look a whole lot better

1465
01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:01,680
Speaker 3: And even though one and one and I know, very

1466
01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:04,400
Speaker 3: disappointing against the Bengals, you got to think they are

1467
01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:05,160
Speaker 3: better overall.

1468
01:03:05,280 --> 01:03:06,400
Speaker 4: Right, I don't think.

1469
01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:09,479
Speaker 6: There's any question. I think that one was as gut

1470
01:03:09,480 --> 01:03:12,960
Speaker 6: wrenching Mark as any because the Jags out played the Bengals,

1471
01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:14,320
Speaker 6: and you know me well enough to know that I

1472
01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:16,720
Speaker 6: wouldn't say that if it wasn't the case. The Bengals

1473
01:03:16,760 --> 01:03:19,520
Speaker 6: took their first lead in the game with eighteen seconds

1474
01:03:19,600 --> 01:03:21,840
Speaker 6: to play in the game. The Jags led the entire game.

1475
01:03:21,880 --> 01:03:25,280
Speaker 6: Burrow was out. The Jags just couldn't finish the job. Dropped,

1476
01:03:25,280 --> 01:03:28,840
Speaker 6: a few passes, dropped the touchdown, had a tough pass

1477
01:03:28,920 --> 01:03:31,680
Speaker 6: interference go against them on four and ten, and it

1478
01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:33,479
Speaker 6: was just one of those games. But the Jags still

1479
01:03:33,520 --> 01:03:36,240
Speaker 6: that they should be two to zero. They're better again,

1480
01:03:36,280 --> 01:03:38,600
Speaker 6: I've said that before around here, and we'll see. But

1481
01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:41,120
Speaker 6: I feel better about this group, how they're all sort

1482
01:03:41,120 --> 01:03:44,040
Speaker 6: of pulling in the same direction, the plan they seem

1483
01:03:44,120 --> 01:03:46,960
Speaker 6: to have. I do believe markets can improve Jacksonville team.

1484
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:47,360
Speaker 6: I really do.

1485
01:03:47,680 --> 01:03:47,840
Speaker 4: Well.

1486
01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:49,760
Speaker 3: I'm not going to start with Trevor Lawrence. I'm going

1487
01:03:49,800 --> 01:03:54,200
Speaker 3: to start with Travis Etn because it's highly noticeable how

1488
01:03:54,240 --> 01:03:57,880
Speaker 3: he's really erupted. In the early going this season, Frank

1489
01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:00,680
Speaker 3: and a lot of people thought, well, Bigsby's probably going

1490
01:04:00,720 --> 01:04:02,480
Speaker 3: to be the guy. Now you might have thought differently,

1491
01:04:02,600 --> 01:04:05,160
Speaker 3: but it seems like Etn has hit a stride finally,

1492
01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:06,960
Speaker 3: has he finally come into his own or is this

1493
01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:07,680
Speaker 3: a renaissance?

1494
01:04:07,720 --> 01:04:08,520
Speaker 4: How do you define it?

1495
01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:11,520
Speaker 6: Well, too, that's a big storyline. Mark, You're exactly right.

1496
01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:15,680
Speaker 6: Two pieces to that story. Number one. Yeah, everybody had

1497
01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:17,919
Speaker 6: Etn run out of town. They thought Tank basically would

1498
01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:21,440
Speaker 6: be the more, the better downhill runner. Then they drafted

1499
01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:23,280
Speaker 6: two guys. They drafted Base Shall two and a really

1500
01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:25,520
Speaker 6: good player out of Virginia Tech and lecquinn Allen out

1501
01:04:25,560 --> 01:04:27,240
Speaker 6: of Serious, both of whom made the team and both

1502
01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:29,640
Speaker 6: of whom are going to play. So you had four

1503
01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:32,000
Speaker 6: guys in your running back room and everybody just assumed

1504
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:34,640
Speaker 6: that the Etn would be the guy, the odd man out. Well,

1505
01:04:34,680 --> 01:04:37,920
Speaker 6: say what happened? Etn took that seriously. Travis Etn came

1506
01:04:37,920 --> 01:04:40,040
Speaker 6: into the best shape of his life. He's the first

1507
01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:41,920
Speaker 6: round draft pick. He played like it. He had a

1508
01:04:41,960 --> 01:04:44,640
Speaker 6: great camp, he won the starting job, and he was

1509
01:04:44,760 --> 01:04:46,640
Speaker 6: very good in that first game, and all of a

1510
01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:49,479
Speaker 6: sudden he's running back one and Tank basically gets traded

1511
01:04:49,480 --> 01:04:51,280
Speaker 6: out of town. So Tank gets traded, you have room

1512
01:04:51,320 --> 01:04:53,160
Speaker 6: for four guys. He wanted to keep the two rookies.

1513
01:04:53,480 --> 01:04:56,600
Speaker 6: So number one, to your point, Travis Etn did a

1514
01:04:56,600 --> 01:04:58,520
Speaker 6: great job. The other part of that story, Mark is

1515
01:04:58,520 --> 01:04:59,920
Speaker 6: they want to run the ball. You know, a lot

1516
01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:02,080
Speaker 6: coaches say we're going to run the ball, but they

1517
01:05:02,120 --> 01:05:04,960
Speaker 6: don't really run the ball. Right, this group said they

1518
01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:07,080
Speaker 6: want to run the ball. Liam Cohen said it from

1519
01:05:07,120 --> 01:05:08,960
Speaker 6: day one. You know, you and I have done this

1520
01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:11,920
Speaker 6: long enough. Everybody can run around first and ten. If

1521
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:13,720
Speaker 6: you run it again on second and nine, that means

1522
01:05:13,720 --> 01:05:15,440
Speaker 6: you're committed to running it. And I think that's what

1523
01:05:15,520 --> 01:05:18,880
Speaker 6: this group is. The two storylines. Travis came in great shape,

1524
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:22,040
Speaker 6: won the job, looks great and this offense under Liam

1525
01:05:22,080 --> 01:05:23,880
Speaker 6: Cohen looks like it's committed to running the football. And

1526
01:05:23,880 --> 01:05:24,560
Speaker 6: that's what we've seen.

1527
01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:28,280
Speaker 3: Okay, So Trevor Lawrence, so far, what are you thinking here?

1528
01:05:28,320 --> 01:05:29,400
Speaker 3: Of the progress?

1529
01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:33,040
Speaker 6: I see progress. He's made a few mistakes he can't make,

1530
01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:37,560
Speaker 6: but I think he's played better. He's threw three touchdowns

1531
01:05:37,640 --> 01:05:38,960
Speaker 6: last week and he had I don't know if you

1532
01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:41,520
Speaker 6: saw Dianmi Brown dropped on right in the end. Okay,

1533
01:05:41,960 --> 01:05:43,640
Speaker 6: just a flat out drop which would have been the

1534
01:05:43,640 --> 01:05:46,920
Speaker 6: fourth touchdown path Brian Thomas Jr. On fourth down and

1535
01:05:46,960 --> 01:05:48,640
Speaker 6: five at the end of the game, just flat out

1536
01:05:48,680 --> 01:05:51,040
Speaker 6: dropped the ball the five yard line. There are around

1537
01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:52,720
Speaker 6: the four yard line would have been a first down.

1538
01:05:53,040 --> 01:05:55,800
Speaker 6: So the drops really hurt him. But Trevor's growing up. Mark.

1539
01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:57,720
Speaker 6: You can sense it, you can see it, you can

1540
01:05:57,760 --> 01:06:01,160
Speaker 6: seal it. He likes this offense. He thinks he's committed

1541
01:06:01,160 --> 01:06:03,760
Speaker 6: to it. It's a play action offense. It starts with

1542
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:05,600
Speaker 6: the running games. And he's played better. Again's on him

1543
01:06:05,640 --> 01:06:08,360
Speaker 6: in two games, right, so it's hard to learn too

1544
01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:10,680
Speaker 6: much or determine too much up to two games. But

1545
01:06:10,760 --> 01:06:14,120
Speaker 6: he's played pretty well and he looks comfortable. He looks

1546
01:06:14,600 --> 01:06:17,960
Speaker 6: I've called every game he's ever played. He looks comfortable,

1547
01:06:18,280 --> 01:06:19,959
Speaker 6: as comfortable as I've seen him look.

1548
01:06:20,560 --> 01:06:23,840
Speaker 3: Frank Nick Cassario told us he thinks Seric Murray's doing

1549
01:06:23,880 --> 01:06:25,840
Speaker 3: pretty well for the Jaguars. Might be a bit of

1550
01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:28,200
Speaker 3: a difference maker. Not like he's going to the Pro

1551
01:06:28,320 --> 01:06:30,600
Speaker 3: Bowl or anything, but he's as steady as she goes.

1552
01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:33,040
Speaker 3: Kind of guy at safety, a veteran who can make

1553
01:06:33,080 --> 01:06:33,640
Speaker 3: things happen.

1554
01:06:33,960 --> 01:06:36,920
Speaker 4: How to pick last week? What about Murray for that defense?

1555
01:06:37,520 --> 01:06:39,720
Speaker 6: He's been very good. The first week he made a

1556
01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:43,160
Speaker 6: diving deflection, I mean a terrific play, and then Foyer

1557
01:06:43,240 --> 01:06:45,640
Speaker 6: Luka dove and picked the ball off. So Eric really

1558
01:06:45,640 --> 01:06:48,440
Speaker 6: caused that play and then he intercepted the pass last week.

1559
01:06:48,480 --> 01:06:51,160
Speaker 6: So who really he's credited with two He should be

1560
01:06:51,200 --> 01:06:54,200
Speaker 6: credited with two interceptions, right, there's not a football doesn't

1561
01:06:54,240 --> 01:06:57,000
Speaker 6: have an assist for an interception, right, But he made

1562
01:06:57,040 --> 01:06:59,320
Speaker 6: the one interception happen the week with the first week

1563
01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:01,800
Speaker 6: and then second week, he's played well, Mark, he knows

1564
01:07:02,160 --> 01:07:04,640
Speaker 6: they needed better. The two veteran secondary guys that they

1565
01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:08,520
Speaker 6: brought in, Eric Murray from Houston and Jordan Lewis from Dallas,

1566
01:07:08,800 --> 01:07:11,360
Speaker 6: they know how to play. Eric Murray's been very good.

1567
01:07:11,600 --> 01:07:14,280
Speaker 6: They need. You need guys in the secondary in today's

1568
01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:16,120
Speaker 6: day and age is the passing games the way they

1569
01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:18,080
Speaker 6: are that know how to play. Eric's gonna be a

1570
01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:19,760
Speaker 6: good Jaguary. He's really going to help the cause here.

1571
01:07:19,960 --> 01:07:21,400
Speaker 6: There's no doubt in my mind. So I think NX

1572
01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:23,600
Speaker 6: reid on that is one hundred percent right. I think

1573
01:07:23,600 --> 01:07:24,640
Speaker 6: he's played very well.

1574
01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:27,080
Speaker 3: Frank, what about the guys up front? Everybody raves about

1575
01:07:27,160 --> 01:07:31,360
Speaker 3: heinz Allen and Walker another sack last week. He's really

1576
01:07:31,360 --> 01:07:33,840
Speaker 3: started to produce in the sack category, which got him

1577
01:07:33,960 --> 01:07:36,360
Speaker 3: a lot of notice last year. Tell me about them,

1578
01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:37,400
Speaker 3: Tell me about that front.

1579
01:07:37,720 --> 01:07:40,120
Speaker 6: The ends are good. The ends have played well. Josh

1580
01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:42,560
Speaker 6: Heines Allen gets a lot of attention. He gets chipped

1581
01:07:42,600 --> 01:07:44,600
Speaker 6: a lot. He gets chipped like one of the good

1582
01:07:44,600 --> 01:07:46,320
Speaker 6: pass rushers in the league. And you know this because

1583
01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:48,560
Speaker 6: you've got two very good ones. But he gets chipped

1584
01:07:48,560 --> 01:07:50,880
Speaker 6: a lot. Mark, he gets double teamed in the tight end,

1585
01:07:50,880 --> 01:07:54,080
Speaker 6: stays in. But he's played well. Trayvon was fantastic class

1586
01:07:54,080 --> 01:07:56,800
Speaker 6: with hadda sack and was very very disruptive. So those

1587
01:07:56,800 --> 01:07:59,280
Speaker 6: two ends are a very good, very good player. Dwan

1588
01:07:59,360 --> 01:08:01,240
Speaker 6: Smooth comes off the bench and is a very good

1589
01:08:01,280 --> 01:08:03,680
Speaker 6: third end. So they are very good. In the tackles.

1590
01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:06,080
Speaker 6: How they need to play better. The tackles have been okay.

1591
01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:08,800
Speaker 6: That was one position going into the season that they

1592
01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:12,040
Speaker 6: were concerned about is with the tackles held up. Eric

1593
01:08:12,120 --> 01:08:15,200
Speaker 6: Armstead played better last week, the veteran Devon Hamilton. The

1594
01:08:15,240 --> 01:08:17,599
Speaker 6: nose guard is up and down, and they've got some

1595
01:08:17,640 --> 01:08:20,839
Speaker 6: young tackles behind those guys. So I think the tackles

1596
01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:23,240
Speaker 6: that's going to be the question. The interior of that,

1597
01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:25,840
Speaker 6: the defensive line mark will be the question with this

1598
01:08:25,880 --> 01:08:28,479
Speaker 6: football team. The ends, as you know are very good

1599
01:08:28,720 --> 01:08:30,920
Speaker 6: even the backup end and Duwan Smooth is very good.

1600
01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:33,320
Speaker 6: The tackles have to play well. That was a big question. Also,

1601
01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:38,679
Speaker 6: Cam is how the Jags weren't physical enough? Man, They

1602
01:08:38,760 --> 01:08:40,679
Speaker 6: have to be more physical. It's a point of impact

1603
01:08:40,720 --> 01:08:43,400
Speaker 6: and it looks like they've made incremental strides there. It

1604
01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:43,920
Speaker 6: really does.

1605
01:08:44,360 --> 01:08:46,920
Speaker 3: Frank, I'm going to ask your assessment of a Texans player,

1606
01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:49,719
Speaker 3: Frank Franchie, Voice of the Jaguars with us Christian Kirk,

1607
01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:52,360
Speaker 3: when he does get out on the field eventually, what

1608
01:08:52,439 --> 01:08:54,799
Speaker 3: kind of difference can he make for the Houston Texans?

1609
01:08:54,840 --> 01:08:56,080
Speaker 4: What do you think they get with Kirk?

1610
01:08:56,520 --> 01:08:59,439
Speaker 6: He was a gigantic difference maker here, great guy in

1611
01:08:59,479 --> 01:09:01,920
Speaker 6: the locker, he got the Good Guy Award for the

1612
01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:05,280
Speaker 6: easiest guy to deal with. Terrific player, a slot receiver.

1613
01:09:05,360 --> 01:09:08,320
Speaker 6: Hey story. He came here three years ago and they

1614
01:09:09,200 --> 01:09:12,559
Speaker 6: won the division, won a playoff game, lost to the Chiefs.

1615
01:09:12,680 --> 01:09:14,519
Speaker 6: Made sort of the elite eight of the league. Right

1616
01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:18,519
Speaker 6: and in his first year. The next year they start

1617
01:09:18,600 --> 01:09:20,960
Speaker 6: eight and three. Mark, they start eight and three, they're

1618
01:09:20,960 --> 01:09:23,040
Speaker 6: playing Cincinnati. Looked like they're going to ease into a

1619
01:09:23,080 --> 01:09:25,920
Speaker 6: back to back division title. Christian got hurt in that

1620
01:09:25,960 --> 01:09:28,280
Speaker 6: game against Cincinnati. He got hurt for the year, they

1621
01:09:28,360 --> 01:09:31,080
Speaker 6: lost him for the year. They lost that game, and

1622
01:09:31,080 --> 01:09:33,120
Speaker 6: that was one of five out of six they lost,

1623
01:09:33,479 --> 01:09:35,920
Speaker 6: missed the playoffs, and then last year never refounded. So

1624
01:09:36,439 --> 01:09:39,479
Speaker 6: the collapse of the Jaguars under Doug Peterson that looks

1625
01:09:39,520 --> 01:09:42,679
Speaker 6: so good in the middle of his tenure here started

1626
01:09:42,680 --> 01:09:44,559
Speaker 6: when Christian Kirk got hurt. I'm telling you it started

1627
01:09:44,600 --> 01:09:45,920
Speaker 6: when he got hurt. Now I'm not saying that's all

1628
01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:48,439
Speaker 6: that happened, but that was a big blow. He's a leader,

1629
01:09:48,720 --> 01:09:50,960
Speaker 6: he catches everything. He's a slot guy. He's not on

1630
01:09:51,000 --> 01:09:53,800
Speaker 6: an outside guy's going to run by people. He's a pro.

1631
01:09:54,120 --> 01:09:56,400
Speaker 6: Christian Kirk is You're gonna love Christian Kirk. He probably

1632
01:09:56,400 --> 01:09:58,760
Speaker 6: already met him, right, I'm sure you've been around it. Yeah,

1633
01:09:58,880 --> 01:10:00,479
Speaker 6: fans are gonna love it. Mark. He is a pro,

1634
01:10:00,720 --> 01:10:03,720
Speaker 6: the pros pro. And I think that's a great gift

1635
01:10:03,800 --> 01:10:05,200
Speaker 6: for the Houston Texans. I really do.

1636
01:10:05,400 --> 01:10:06,360
Speaker 4: Now, great interview.

1637
01:10:06,520 --> 01:10:09,320
Speaker 3: I talked to him right after joint practice with the Lions,

1638
01:10:09,360 --> 01:10:11,559
Speaker 3: and then he didn't play in that final preseason game.

1639
01:10:11,560 --> 01:10:14,680
Speaker 3: Then he hurts his hamstring right before the opener at

1640
01:10:14,680 --> 01:10:18,200
Speaker 3: some point, and absolutely need him on the field. Frank,

1641
01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:21,280
Speaker 3: what's the vibe like in Jacksonville right now going into

1642
01:10:21,320 --> 01:10:24,559
Speaker 3: this game Jags and Texans. We meet again in the

1643
01:10:24,600 --> 01:10:26,960
Speaker 3: AFC South. Here we go, we have some time before

1644
01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:29,080
Speaker 3: the game. But what is the feeling in North Florida

1645
01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:29,759
Speaker 3: about this one?

1646
01:10:30,160 --> 01:10:32,520
Speaker 6: Well, that's a great question. There's a lot of storylines

1647
01:10:32,560 --> 01:10:36,479
Speaker 6: here all right in the fan base. Number one, forget

1648
01:10:36,479 --> 01:10:38,639
Speaker 6: the Texans for a second. The fans want to believe

1649
01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:40,599
Speaker 6: this is real, you know what I mean, Mark. They

1650
01:10:40,640 --> 01:10:44,760
Speaker 6: want to believe that the Jags are improved, that it's

1651
01:10:44,800 --> 01:10:47,720
Speaker 6: not the same old Samuel Jags fans really want to

1652
01:10:47,920 --> 01:10:49,840
Speaker 6: Like all fans, all fans want to believe that right

1653
01:10:49,840 --> 01:10:51,640
Speaker 6: when you turn the corner, because you guys have done

1654
01:10:51,680 --> 01:10:54,360
Speaker 6: in recent years. Fans want to believe it's real. So

1655
01:10:54,520 --> 01:10:56,800
Speaker 6: I think there's some belief it might be real. I

1656
01:10:56,840 --> 01:10:59,400
Speaker 6: think there's certainly some sign there's some evidence out there,

1657
01:10:59,400 --> 01:11:02,120
Speaker 6: but you and you've got to make yourself believe it's real.

1658
01:11:02,560 --> 01:11:05,439
Speaker 6: So I think there's there's there's some hesitation, but I

1659
01:11:05,439 --> 01:11:08,879
Speaker 6: think there's some cautious optimism. The Texans game is gigantic.

1660
01:11:08,920 --> 01:11:11,240
Speaker 6: Houston's won ten of the last eleven times they've been

1661
01:11:11,280 --> 01:11:13,519
Speaker 6: in this stadium. That's hard to believe than an opponent

1662
01:11:13,520 --> 01:11:15,559
Speaker 6: had been ten out of eleven times in this stadium.

1663
01:11:15,560 --> 01:11:18,240
Speaker 6: If they ask has had their way with Jackson, we

1664
01:11:18,320 --> 01:11:20,080
Speaker 6: all know that your team has had their way with

1665
01:11:20,080 --> 01:11:23,160
Speaker 6: a jack And look, the team isn't talking about it,

1666
01:11:23,200 --> 01:11:25,880
Speaker 6: and I've plawed them not but the but the big

1667
01:11:25,960 --> 01:11:27,800
Speaker 6: hit on Trevor Lawrence that knocked him out for the

1668
01:11:27,840 --> 01:11:30,439
Speaker 6: season is still something everybody in the fan base is

1669
01:11:30,439 --> 01:11:33,360
Speaker 6: talking about. That. To suggest that that story went away

1670
01:11:33,960 --> 01:11:37,320
Speaker 6: is inaccurate the story at least, and again, the team

1671
01:11:37,360 --> 01:11:38,920
Speaker 6: has been very careful to teach that we're not worried

1672
01:11:38,920 --> 01:11:41,040
Speaker 6: about anything happened last year. We're trying to get ready

1673
01:11:41,040 --> 01:11:42,720
Speaker 6: for this year. But I can promise you in the

1674
01:11:42,720 --> 01:11:45,200
Speaker 6: fan base, that hit on Trevor Lawrence is still being

1675
01:11:45,240 --> 01:11:48,680
Speaker 6: talked about. So for that reason, it's it's got a

1676
01:11:48,680 --> 01:11:51,400
Speaker 6: lot of storylines. Here's the other storyline. The Texans, who

1677
01:11:51,400 --> 01:11:53,360
Speaker 6: have been the Krem de la Krem of the division,

1678
01:11:53,880 --> 01:11:55,479
Speaker 6: are looking at O with three if they lose the game.

1679
01:11:55,520 --> 01:11:57,640
Speaker 6: I know you've been talking about that. So it's a

1680
01:11:57,720 --> 01:12:00,280
Speaker 6: gigantic game. A sense of urgency for the Texans and

1681
01:12:00,320 --> 01:12:02,040
Speaker 6: the Jags have a chance to start two to one

1682
01:12:02,080 --> 01:12:03,439
Speaker 6: for the first time in the long time, you know,

1683
01:12:03,520 --> 01:12:05,880
Speaker 6: last the Jags have not been two and oh since

1684
01:12:05,920 --> 01:12:09,040
Speaker 6: twenty eighteen mark, and they're not again this year too.

1685
01:12:09,080 --> 01:12:11,240
Speaker 6: So it's a big game on so many fronts, and

1686
01:12:11,280 --> 01:12:13,000
Speaker 6: I don't think that's been lost here. I think the

1687
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:14,479
Speaker 6: fan base certainly is talking about that.

1688
01:12:14,880 --> 01:12:18,000
Speaker 3: Well, we have this next thing in common concern that

1689
01:12:18,080 --> 01:12:20,639
Speaker 3: the Colts are jumping off to a two and oho start.

1690
01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:23,200
Speaker 4: They look pretty good. What are your thoughts on the horseshoe?

1691
01:12:23,560 --> 01:12:26,360
Speaker 6: They do look good. I think they The Colts have

1692
01:12:26,400 --> 01:12:29,519
Speaker 6: played so many different quarterbacks. For all everything Andrew Luck

1693
01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:31,400
Speaker 6: was gone, They've played every quarterback in the league. I

1694
01:12:31,439 --> 01:12:34,320
Speaker 6: think's made his way to Indianapolis. They made the right

1695
01:12:34,360 --> 01:12:37,080
Speaker 6: decision with Daniel Jones to go get him, to have

1696
01:12:37,160 --> 01:12:39,559
Speaker 6: him compete with Antheya Richardson, and to have him beat

1697
01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:41,880
Speaker 6: him out. They were very good in the first week.

1698
01:12:42,479 --> 01:12:44,479
Speaker 6: Last week was weird. I don't know that I've seen

1699
01:12:44,479 --> 01:12:48,000
Speaker 6: a game end like that, Mark that the guy misses

1700
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:51,000
Speaker 6: the kick and the Broncos win on the with no

1701
01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:53,320
Speaker 6: time left on the clock. But then they get caught

1702
01:12:53,320 --> 01:12:54,760
Speaker 6: and you know what, happened, they get called for the

1703
01:12:54,840 --> 01:12:57,519
Speaker 6: leverage penalty, and the Colts get another chance and they

1704
01:12:57,520 --> 01:12:59,800
Speaker 6: make it. I think the culture leaks to your question, though,

1705
01:13:00,200 --> 01:13:03,280
Speaker 6: I think the culture legit. I think the Titans are

1706
01:13:03,280 --> 01:13:06,000
Speaker 6: a little behind, but I think the other three teams

1707
01:13:06,040 --> 01:13:08,760
Speaker 6: in this division are all pretty good and are all

1708
01:13:08,760 --> 01:13:11,040
Speaker 6: pretty close. Do you see it that way? I think

1709
01:13:11,040 --> 01:13:14,120
Speaker 6: those three teams are somewhat even. I think it's going

1710
01:13:14,160 --> 01:13:15,479
Speaker 6: to be and again I'm not trying to write off

1711
01:13:15,520 --> 01:13:17,360
Speaker 6: the Titans yet, but I think they're a little further behind.

1712
01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:19,960
Speaker 6: They've got a first year quarterbacks. But I think the

1713
01:13:20,000 --> 01:13:21,439
Speaker 6: other three teams, I think it's going to be a

1714
01:13:21,479 --> 01:13:23,400
Speaker 6: heck of about. It starts this week obviously that our

1715
01:13:23,439 --> 01:13:25,000
Speaker 6: two teams, but I think it's going to be a

1716
01:13:25,040 --> 01:13:26,920
Speaker 6: heck of a battle in the division. That's how I

1717
01:13:26,920 --> 01:13:28,120
Speaker 6: see those top three teams.

1718
01:13:28,360 --> 01:13:30,800
Speaker 3: I think it is close. I think I knew the

1719
01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:33,720
Speaker 3: Texans were going to have it tough with these two

1720
01:13:33,800 --> 01:13:36,400
Speaker 3: teams to open up the season with at the Rams

1721
01:13:36,400 --> 01:13:39,400
Speaker 3: and home against the Buccaneers, and it was even tougher

1722
01:13:39,479 --> 01:13:42,320
Speaker 3: than I thought. But they're close losses one point five points,

1723
01:13:42,320 --> 01:13:43,960
Speaker 3: but you know, they don't give you anything in this league.

1724
01:13:43,960 --> 01:13:46,120
Speaker 3: For that, I think a lot of the league is

1725
01:13:46,240 --> 01:13:48,760
Speaker 3: like that, with these one score games, so not much

1726
01:13:48,800 --> 01:13:51,080
Speaker 3: you can do anything else jumping out to you about

1727
01:13:51,080 --> 01:13:54,799
Speaker 3: the AFC. Maybe Chiefs so and two the Bills start.

1728
01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:57,840
Speaker 3: Anything else, Frank, that is notable to you about the

1729
01:13:57,880 --> 01:13:59,479
Speaker 3: AFC or the NFL at large.

1730
01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:03,760
Speaker 6: I think AFC the one thing that grabbed me other

1731
01:14:03,840 --> 01:14:05,679
Speaker 6: than the normal. So the Chiefs are going to be fine.

1732
01:14:05,680 --> 01:14:08,320
Speaker 6: The Chiefs have a good team. We all know the

1733
01:14:08,400 --> 01:14:10,280
Speaker 6: Chiefs are. If they're not going to be there in

1734
01:14:10,280 --> 01:14:12,559
Speaker 6: the end, they're going to be close. The Ravens are

1735
01:14:12,560 --> 01:14:15,080
Speaker 6: really good. The Bills are emerging. This might be the

1736
01:14:15,160 --> 01:14:17,519
Speaker 6: year of the Bills. The one thing that jumped off

1737
01:14:17,680 --> 01:14:19,559
Speaker 6: the chart for me or off the page for me, Marcus,

1738
01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:21,679
Speaker 6: I think the Chargers might be legit. He's a really

1739
01:14:21,680 --> 01:14:24,559
Speaker 6: good coach. He won a national championship in college. He's

1740
01:14:24,600 --> 01:14:28,200
Speaker 6: been to a Super Bowl. He's tough. I know a player,

1741
01:14:28,320 --> 01:14:30,040
Speaker 6: I personally know a guy that played for him to

1742
01:14:30,120 --> 01:14:32,960
Speaker 6: chart with his Chargers team, and he said, you can't

1743
01:14:33,000 --> 01:14:35,840
Speaker 6: imagine how physical the practices are, how they bumped right

1744
01:14:35,880 --> 01:14:38,600
Speaker 6: up against the edge of what's allowed. And when he

1745
01:14:38,720 --> 01:14:41,240
Speaker 6: makes them tougher, he makes him a running team that

1746
01:14:41,320 --> 01:14:44,479
Speaker 6: makes Justin Herbert better. It's clear Justin Herbert is developing.

1747
01:14:44,960 --> 01:14:47,519
Speaker 6: So if there's one thing about the AFC more than

1748
01:14:47,560 --> 01:14:50,400
Speaker 6: anything else that's grabbed me as no, boy, the Chargers,

1749
01:14:50,400 --> 01:14:52,000
Speaker 6: which have been they've been a tease right for the

1750
01:14:52,080 --> 01:14:54,640
Speaker 6: last handful of years. Everything is Justin Herbert got there.

1751
01:14:54,640 --> 01:14:56,200
Speaker 6: They looked like they were they could be the teams

1752
01:14:56,200 --> 01:14:58,640
Speaker 6: that emerges, but they never do. Boy, I think they

1753
01:14:58,720 --> 01:15:01,559
Speaker 6: might be year. I'm very impressed with the La Chargers.

1754
01:15:01,560 --> 01:15:03,720
Speaker 6: I think that's probably first and foremost for me of

1755
01:15:03,840 --> 01:15:04,639
Speaker 6: things in the AFC.

1756
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:07,400
Speaker 3: Frank Frazie, Voice of the Jaguars with us a couple

1757
01:15:07,439 --> 01:15:09,760
Speaker 3: of quick ones on the way out here. Frank, I

1758
01:15:09,840 --> 01:15:11,519
Speaker 3: know you do the talk show. You talk a lot

1759
01:15:11,560 --> 01:15:13,760
Speaker 3: of college football. The Gators are going to be at

1760
01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:18,639
Speaker 3: Mike Canes this weekend. Thoughts on this matchup, the rise

1761
01:15:18,680 --> 01:15:21,040
Speaker 3: of the Hurricanes is at real, and what is going

1762
01:15:21,040 --> 01:15:22,240
Speaker 3: on with the Gators in general?

1763
01:15:22,720 --> 01:15:26,000
Speaker 6: Well, first of all, the Mark vandermir Kaines are good. Okay,

1764
01:15:26,200 --> 01:15:29,400
Speaker 6: they're I mean they're like legit, legit. Carson Beck who's

1765
01:15:29,400 --> 01:15:31,439
Speaker 6: the jack and guy and no Carson I know his family.

1766
01:15:31,880 --> 01:15:32,720
Speaker 6: He's good.

1767
01:15:32,760 --> 01:15:32,920
Speaker 4: Now.

1768
01:15:33,000 --> 01:15:35,599
Speaker 6: I mean, he's worth all those millions they paid him

1769
01:15:35,600 --> 01:15:37,640
Speaker 6: to come down there, and I think that I think

1770
01:15:37,680 --> 01:15:39,960
Speaker 6: they're more physical than they've been. This looks to me

1771
01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:43,439
Speaker 6: like the best Miami team since early two thousand and

1772
01:15:43,479 --> 01:15:45,439
Speaker 6: We'll see if it plays out that way. Last year

1773
01:15:45,439 --> 01:15:48,240
Speaker 6: they were great on offense, that's flawed on defense. You

1774
01:15:48,400 --> 01:15:50,120
Speaker 6: and I know you know this because you follow them.

1775
01:15:50,200 --> 01:15:52,400
Speaker 6: They've had two ten wins seasons in twenty five years.

1776
01:15:52,400 --> 01:15:54,080
Speaker 6: I mean there are twenty four years. Ever since the

1777
01:15:54,080 --> 01:15:56,080
Speaker 6: two thousand and two teams. They haven't been a great

1778
01:15:56,200 --> 01:15:58,200
Speaker 6: elite team. I think they might be now. The Gators

1779
01:15:58,200 --> 01:16:00,640
Speaker 6: are a mess. DJ Lagway is as they're going to

1780
01:16:00,680 --> 01:16:03,320
Speaker 6: fire the coach. I think. I think Miami beats them

1781
01:16:03,320 --> 01:16:05,720
Speaker 6: by double digits. They start one to three, they get

1782
01:16:05,720 --> 01:16:07,760
Speaker 6: an awful then they get Texas in that here's what

1783
01:16:07,760 --> 01:16:09,880
Speaker 6: they get next, Texas, and then at A and M

1784
01:16:09,960 --> 01:16:12,840
Speaker 6: and then after that they get Georgia. So it's going

1785
01:16:12,880 --> 01:16:14,840
Speaker 6: to be a disastrous season for the Gators, which is

1786
01:16:14,840 --> 01:16:16,880
Speaker 6: a surprise. I thought they'd be better than that. But

1787
01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:19,719
Speaker 6: Miami's pretty good. Mark, you'd be proud of your canes

1788
01:16:19,760 --> 01:16:22,160
Speaker 6: down here there. They're legit, legit, They really.

1789
01:16:22,000 --> 01:16:23,920
Speaker 4: Are thoughts off Florida State.

1790
01:16:24,479 --> 01:16:28,280
Speaker 6: You know what a crazy turn. They're really good. Two

1791
01:16:28,360 --> 01:16:29,800
Speaker 6: years in a row they went third. They go thirteen

1792
01:16:29,840 --> 01:16:31,360
Speaker 6: to others and the quarterback gets third and then everybody

1793
01:16:31,360 --> 01:16:34,280
Speaker 6: could sloop them. Last year, they're a disaster. They're two

1794
01:16:34,320 --> 01:16:36,439
Speaker 6: and ten, one of the worst teams in the country.

1795
01:16:36,760 --> 01:16:39,519
Speaker 6: I give him credit. He fired his offensive coordinator, fired

1796
01:16:39,520 --> 01:16:41,599
Speaker 6: his defensive coordinator, fired half his coach, and ran off

1797
01:16:41,640 --> 01:16:44,200
Speaker 6: hafits players. They went and got twenty some players in

1798
01:16:44,240 --> 01:16:46,639
Speaker 6: the portal, Gus Miles on to run the offense, Tony

1799
01:16:46,640 --> 01:16:48,639
Speaker 6: White to run the defense. All of a sudden, they're

1800
01:16:48,640 --> 01:16:50,280
Speaker 6: good again. Do you realize this? Do you really think

1801
01:16:50,320 --> 01:16:54,080
Speaker 6: about this? Of their twenty two starting players, that's the

1802
01:16:54,120 --> 01:16:57,040
Speaker 6: twenty two players that started the Florida the start of

1803
01:16:57,040 --> 01:17:00,840
Speaker 6: the Alabama game seventeen did not to start their careers

1804
01:17:00,880 --> 01:17:02,559
Speaker 6: at Florida State. Now, I want you to think about

1805
01:17:02,560 --> 01:17:04,719
Speaker 6: that for a second. Mark, Well, the twenty two players

1806
01:17:04,720 --> 01:17:09,960
Speaker 6: that started that game against Alabama seventeen began their college

1807
01:17:09,960 --> 01:17:13,080
Speaker 6: careers at another university. Isn't that amazing the world we're

1808
01:17:13,080 --> 01:17:15,080
Speaker 6: in now? But that's what these guys do. They go

1809
01:17:15,120 --> 01:17:17,519
Speaker 6: out and get Remember these portal guys are twenty two

1810
01:17:17,560 --> 01:17:20,040
Speaker 6: and twenty three years old. So these twenty two year

1811
01:17:20,040 --> 01:17:22,960
Speaker 6: olds are playing against high school, college freshman and sophomoorrees

1812
01:17:23,200 --> 01:17:25,519
Speaker 6: and that's many difference. I think. I think they're pretty good.

1813
01:17:25,920 --> 01:17:29,120
Speaker 6: And the schedule softens up on October fourth, it's Miami

1814
01:17:29,200 --> 01:17:30,760
Speaker 6: and FSU. It might be like the old age, it

1815
01:17:30,840 --> 01:17:32,280
Speaker 6: might be a really good Miami.

1816
01:17:32,600 --> 01:17:32,920
Speaker 4: Man.

1817
01:17:33,280 --> 01:17:35,880
Speaker 3: I can't believe it's seventeen new guys shows me that

1818
01:17:35,960 --> 01:17:38,400
Speaker 3: foot locker is open for business in Tallahasse.

1819
01:17:38,560 --> 01:17:42,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, Frank, I love that. Thanks so much that along.

1820
01:17:42,960 --> 01:17:45,400
Speaker 6: Ah, My tell a man, friends don't appreciate that.

1821
01:17:45,479 --> 01:17:47,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, go ahead, pass that along your program. All right,

1822
01:17:47,920 --> 01:17:49,800
Speaker 3: look forward to seeing you on Sunday, my friend, thanks

1823
01:17:49,840 --> 01:17:50,519
Speaker 3: a lot for the time.

1824
01:17:50,840 --> 01:17:51,880
Speaker 6: Okay, Mark, good to catch that.

1825
01:17:52,000 --> 01:17:57,720
Speaker 1: Tak care Okay, So Frank Sigator and Mark Sekine. So

1826
01:17:58,439 --> 01:18:00,519
Speaker 1: if they're going to take shots, it's gonna be at

1827
01:18:00,520 --> 01:18:05,479
Speaker 1: Florida State. Although Gators and Canes they don't get along.

1828
01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:08,679
Speaker 1: You'll see that this weekend. They do not get along.

1829
01:18:08,760 --> 01:18:11,080
Speaker 1: Goes back to the seventies thing they got all. There's

1830
01:18:11,200 --> 01:18:16,120
Speaker 1: respect with Florida State, Miami, there's respect with FORLID State Florida.

1831
01:18:16,479 --> 01:18:21,920
Speaker 1: There is hatred between Miami and Florida, unless well, Frank

1832
01:18:22,040 --> 01:18:25,320
Speaker 1: and Mark get together. Now markedn go to Miami, but

1833
01:18:25,560 --> 01:18:28,719
Speaker 1: he definitely bleeds Kynes because of his time there calling

1834
01:18:28,800 --> 01:18:32,320
Speaker 1: games back in the late nineteen nineties in the early

1835
01:18:32,360 --> 01:18:35,400
Speaker 1: two thousands, So he definitely bleeds Knes. And that's gonna

1836
01:18:35,400 --> 01:18:37,880
Speaker 1: be a good one this weekend. Canes and Gators. But

1837
01:18:38,400 --> 01:18:41,880
Speaker 1: Mark taking the shot about foot Locker University of Florida

1838
01:18:41,960 --> 01:18:45,240
Speaker 1: State of course. Of course Mark was gonna take a

1839
01:18:45,280 --> 01:18:51,200
Speaker 1: shot at the Seminoles, even though, like I said, he

1840
01:18:51,479 --> 01:18:52,920
Speaker 1: has more of a hatred for the Gators.

1841
01:18:52,920 --> 01:18:54,160
Speaker 2: But good stuff they're from.

1842
01:18:54,240 --> 01:18:56,960
Speaker 1: Frank and this is an interesting one from the standpoint

1843
01:18:57,040 --> 01:19:00,400
Speaker 1: of Christian Kirk going back to Duval County, Eric Murray

1844
01:19:00,400 --> 01:19:02,880
Speaker 1: playing against the Texans. So a little bit of kind

1845
01:19:02,920 --> 01:19:06,479
Speaker 1: of swappage on both sides is gonna make this one

1846
01:19:06,560 --> 01:19:09,880
Speaker 1: quite quite interesting on Sunday, There's no question about that.

1847
01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:10,280
Speaker 4: Now.

1848
01:19:10,640 --> 01:19:12,519
Speaker 2: The particulars that will be in this game.

1849
01:19:13,120 --> 01:19:13,439
Speaker 4: C J.

1850
01:19:13,600 --> 01:19:17,479
Speaker 1: Stroud, Dimiko Ryans, even Liam Cohen all we're at the

1851
01:19:17,520 --> 01:19:20,719
Speaker 1: mic this week, so let's do a little Texans audio

1852
01:19:20,960 --> 01:19:24,840
Speaker 1: juke box next. Hearing from those three in particular right

1853
01:19:24,840 --> 01:19:28,040
Speaker 1: here in Texans All Access staping. Everybody, Welcome back to

1854
01:19:28,080 --> 01:19:31,360
Speaker 1: this final segment of Texans All Access.

1855
01:19:30,880 --> 01:19:35,519
Speaker 2: For this wonderful, wonderful Wednesday evening. I'm your host, John Harris.

1856
01:19:35,560 --> 01:19:39,960
Speaker 1: Foot play on the sideline Reporter for your Houston Texans taper,

1857
01:19:40,040 --> 01:19:44,120
Speaker 1: Little Texans Audio juke box. Before we close it down

1858
01:19:44,479 --> 01:19:46,680
Speaker 1: and turn it over to Area forty five. I was

1859
01:19:46,720 --> 01:19:51,880
Speaker 1: wonderful Wednesday, wherever you are. So a couple of Texans

1860
01:19:52,240 --> 01:19:55,280
Speaker 1: spoke today. A couple of Jaguars had things to say

1861
01:19:55,320 --> 01:19:56,960
Speaker 1: as well, so we'll play a little bit of that

1862
01:19:57,040 --> 01:20:00,800
Speaker 1: as well. But let's start with Demico Ryan and as

1863
01:20:00,800 --> 01:20:04,040
Speaker 1: I mentioned earlier, injury report looks a little better because

1864
01:20:04,040 --> 01:20:07,360
Speaker 1: you got Christian Kirk, Braxton, Barrios, Jake Andrews back in

1865
01:20:07,439 --> 01:20:11,160
Speaker 1: a limited capacity. Here's Coach when asked about his injured

1866
01:20:11,160 --> 01:20:11,960
Speaker 1: guys coming back.

1867
01:20:12,680 --> 01:20:16,000
Speaker 10: That's good to get our guys back, you know, getting Christian,

1868
01:20:16,080 --> 01:20:18,840
Speaker 10: bag Barrios, Jake is good to see them back out

1869
01:20:18,840 --> 01:20:21,280
Speaker 10: at practice today. Will continue to see how the week

1870
01:20:21,320 --> 01:20:23,920
Speaker 10: goes for them, but is encouraging to see them out

1871
01:20:23,920 --> 01:20:26,599
Speaker 10: there today working. Hopefully they can help us on Sunday.

1872
01:20:27,200 --> 01:20:29,920
Speaker 1: All for it, getting as many guys back as possible.

1873
01:20:29,960 --> 01:20:32,960
Speaker 1: As I mentioned, Jalen Smith did not practice due to hamstring,

1874
01:20:33,280 --> 01:20:38,200
Speaker 1: but Barrios, Andrews and Kirk back at practice today.

1875
01:20:38,560 --> 01:20:40,559
Speaker 2: That was great. Now Kirk used to be a member

1876
01:20:40,560 --> 01:20:41,320
Speaker 2: of the Jaguars.

1877
01:20:41,760 --> 01:20:45,600
Speaker 1: What about the current Jaguars team, Well, we asked it,

1878
01:20:45,680 --> 01:20:48,800
Speaker 1: Cassearria Frisk out of report. Here's coach giving you a

1879
01:20:48,880 --> 01:20:51,160
Speaker 1: little bit more concise report because he's up at the

1880
01:20:51,160 --> 01:20:53,519
Speaker 1: podium as opposed to with us. Here's coach talking about

1881
01:20:53,520 --> 01:20:54,000
Speaker 1: the Jags.

1882
01:20:55,360 --> 01:20:59,280
Speaker 10: From the Jags, I see, you know, really an explosive offense.

1883
01:21:00,080 --> 01:21:02,720
Speaker 10: He got playmakers starting with the running back to me,

1884
01:21:03,080 --> 01:21:08,040
Speaker 10: etn is really good player, tough tackle, right, so we

1885
01:21:08,120 --> 01:21:10,320
Speaker 10: got to do a great job of tackling again this week.

1886
01:21:10,360 --> 01:21:14,519
Speaker 10: Another Gary back. And the receivers. I think Brian Thomas

1887
01:21:14,600 --> 01:21:18,120
Speaker 10: one of the best young receivers in the league. Really

1888
01:21:18,160 --> 01:21:22,479
Speaker 10: like his skill set, really explosive player, plays, really great hands,

1889
01:21:22,920 --> 01:21:25,040
Speaker 10: attacking a deep part of the field as well. And

1890
01:21:25,120 --> 01:21:28,400
Speaker 10: they got Travis Hunter throw him in the mix, another

1891
01:21:29,040 --> 01:21:31,360
Speaker 10: another playmaker they're trying to feed the ball to a

1892
01:21:31,400 --> 01:21:35,320
Speaker 10: little bit more. Watching the Cincinnati game, Nan Trevor's done

1893
01:21:35,320 --> 01:21:37,080
Speaker 10: a really good job. I think Liam has done a

1894
01:21:37,120 --> 01:21:40,040
Speaker 10: really nice job working with Trevor. You can see some

1895
01:21:40,080 --> 01:21:43,439
Speaker 10: improvements from him, Like if the first guy's open, he's

1896
01:21:43,520 --> 01:21:45,519
Speaker 10: ripping it in there, and he rips it, he plays.

1897
01:21:45,560 --> 01:21:48,759
Speaker 10: He's playing decisive, playing on time, and it's still having

1898
01:21:48,760 --> 01:21:51,439
Speaker 10: that athletic ability to move out of the pocket extend

1899
01:21:51,479 --> 01:21:54,080
Speaker 10: plays is really what makes him lethal. So they're doing

1900
01:21:54,080 --> 01:21:57,200
Speaker 10: a really nice job. Offensive line have to definitely give

1901
01:21:57,200 --> 01:21:59,480
Speaker 10: them credit. They're doing a really nice job of protecting

1902
01:22:00,080 --> 01:22:02,760
Speaker 10: only given up one sack this year, so really nice

1903
01:22:02,840 --> 01:22:07,559
Speaker 10: job protecting the quarterback and protecting the football defensively. A

1904
01:22:07,560 --> 01:22:09,479
Speaker 10: lot of different looks. They mix it up a lot.

1905
01:22:09,520 --> 01:22:11,960
Speaker 10: We're gonna be challenged with what they do, especially on

1906
01:22:12,040 --> 01:22:15,439
Speaker 10: a passing situation, second and third down. They mix up

1907
01:22:15,479 --> 01:22:16,720
Speaker 10: a lot of looks, a lot of guys at the

1908
01:22:16,760 --> 01:22:18,759
Speaker 10: line of scrimins dropping in and out.

1909
01:22:18,560 --> 01:22:20,840
Speaker 7: Of coverage looks, pressure looks.

1910
01:22:20,840 --> 01:22:23,200
Speaker 10: So we have our hands full there when it comes

1911
01:22:23,200 --> 01:22:26,240
Speaker 10: to picking those things up and being decisive where they are.

1912
01:22:26,320 --> 01:22:28,640
Speaker 10: But they do a really nice job of attacking the football,

1913
01:22:29,080 --> 01:22:31,880
Speaker 10: playing fast and physical. Really like the way a defense

1914
01:22:32,000 --> 01:22:33,040
Speaker 10: is playing well.

1915
01:22:33,080 --> 01:22:36,280
Speaker 1: The Jacksonville Jaguars traded up to number two. We all

1916
01:22:36,320 --> 01:22:39,519
Speaker 1: knew it for Travis Hunter at that point, and James

1917
01:22:39,560 --> 01:22:43,160
Speaker 1: Gladstone GM next day talked about how Travis was gonna

1918
01:22:43,200 --> 01:22:46,720
Speaker 1: change the game. Unfortunately, there was always some blowback on that,

1919
01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:50,880
Speaker 1: and it's not really about Travis. It's about Gladstone making

1920
01:22:50,960 --> 01:22:51,919
Speaker 1: too much of the situation.

1921
01:22:52,080 --> 01:22:52,280
Speaker 2: Now.

1922
01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:54,560
Speaker 1: I said earlier, I do think we're gonna see a

1923
01:22:54,600 --> 01:22:57,240
Speaker 1: little bit more Travis, especially in a Division game. I

1924
01:22:57,280 --> 01:22:59,080
Speaker 1: think these are the games you kind of save him for.

1925
01:22:59,439 --> 01:23:01,920
Speaker 1: This is what Tryan's is seeing from Travis Hunt.

1926
01:23:02,200 --> 01:23:04,680
Speaker 10: For Travis, we just we play like we have to

1927
01:23:04,680 --> 01:23:07,320
Speaker 10: do us better, so it's not us just singling out

1928
01:23:07,400 --> 01:23:10,599
Speaker 10: one player. He's definitely a part of what they do

1929
01:23:10,800 --> 01:23:13,080
Speaker 10: and they will try to feature him, but we don't

1930
01:23:13,120 --> 01:23:17,280
Speaker 10: overextend ourselves to try to chase ghosts or anything. Can

1931
01:23:17,320 --> 01:23:19,280
Speaker 10: heal lines all over the place. He will be in

1932
01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:21,519
Speaker 10: every position. They're gonna find ways to get in the ball.

1933
01:23:21,720 --> 01:23:24,480
Speaker 10: We just have to play sound and what we do defensively,

1934
01:23:24,840 --> 01:23:27,000
Speaker 10: and just we have to make the players we're supposed

1935
01:23:27,040 --> 01:23:28,920
Speaker 10: to make. Then when they do put him on the

1936
01:23:28,960 --> 01:23:31,880
Speaker 10: defensive side at the corner position. See he made a

1937
01:23:31,920 --> 01:23:34,280
Speaker 10: really nice play there on the sideline breaking up a

1938
01:23:34,320 --> 01:23:37,160
Speaker 10: pass you talk about a talented player, and you see

1939
01:23:37,560 --> 01:23:40,320
Speaker 10: why he's drafted where he's drafted, the impact he's had

1940
01:23:40,439 --> 01:23:43,360
Speaker 10: at both places he was at, you know, Jackson State

1941
01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:45,840
Speaker 10: and also at Colorado. You see the impact that the

1942
01:23:45,920 --> 01:23:49,479
Speaker 10: kid has made. Outstanding young man, outstanding player, and it's

1943
01:23:49,520 --> 01:23:52,200
Speaker 10: really cool to see a guy be able to play

1944
01:23:52,200 --> 01:23:54,920
Speaker 10: on both sides of the football and in the National

1945
01:23:54,920 --> 01:23:56,719
Speaker 10: Football League where a lot of people say it can't

1946
01:23:56,760 --> 01:23:58,919
Speaker 10: be done, but it's impressing.

1947
01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:03,280
Speaker 1: He still hasn't gotten that game yet where he's played,

1948
01:24:04,040 --> 01:24:06,320
Speaker 1: you know, one hundred snaps. My guess is, and it

1949
01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:07,840
Speaker 1: depends on what the weather is gonna be. You know,

1950
01:24:07,880 --> 01:24:09,840
Speaker 1: it looks like it could be a rainy, wet one

1951
01:24:09,880 --> 01:24:12,080
Speaker 1: on Sunday. If it's not, it's definitely gonna be hot

1952
01:24:12,320 --> 01:24:14,760
Speaker 1: because Jacksonville's got very similar weather to Houston. I know

1953
01:24:14,800 --> 01:24:17,679
Speaker 1: this really well. I thought, going to Jacksonville, Okay, it's Floria,

1954
01:24:17,680 --> 01:24:21,040
Speaker 1: it's gonna be No, it's the exact same weather basically

1955
01:24:21,080 --> 01:24:23,719
Speaker 1: that you're gonna get here. It's just here we're play inside.

1956
01:24:23,720 --> 01:24:26,000
Speaker 1: There they play outside, and you know we'll get wet

1957
01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:28,840
Speaker 1: if it rains, but so be it. That's just what

1958
01:24:28,880 --> 01:24:32,040
Speaker 1: it's gonna be that said, that could determine what they

1959
01:24:32,120 --> 01:24:34,439
Speaker 1: do with Travis Hunter. And I said this, and we

1960
01:24:34,479 --> 01:24:37,880
Speaker 1: said it draft night. Playing hundred players in the NFL,

1961
01:24:38,240 --> 01:24:43,439
Speaker 1: is that's not a recipe for success consistently. Can you

1962
01:24:43,520 --> 01:24:47,800
Speaker 1: do it a game or two? Yes, back to back games,

1963
01:24:47,960 --> 01:24:52,559
Speaker 1: no playoff games potentially when the weather william, what's colder,

1964
01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:55,200
Speaker 1: when you have to worry about, you know, being out

1965
01:24:55,200 --> 01:24:57,360
Speaker 1: to for one hundred plays in night your heat, maybe,

1966
01:24:57,880 --> 01:25:00,960
Speaker 1: but it's just really hard to do that said, I

1967
01:25:01,000 --> 01:25:02,759
Speaker 1: think this is one of those games for the Jacks

1968
01:25:03,040 --> 01:25:05,479
Speaker 1: where they might want Travis Hunter on the field a

1969
01:25:05,520 --> 01:25:07,760
Speaker 1: lot more than he has been on either side of

1970
01:25:07,760 --> 01:25:13,120
Speaker 1: the ball. So I'm sort of expecting that to happen.

1971
01:25:13,280 --> 01:25:15,919
Speaker 1: Now we've gone on to Jacksonville, had a lot of success,

1972
01:25:16,600 --> 01:25:18,160
Speaker 1: but the games for the most part of the twenty

1973
01:25:18,160 --> 01:25:21,880
Speaker 1: twenty three have been really really close. The wins, Dubiko

1974
01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:25,479
Speaker 1: ryans asad wins. They're close wins. But Miko said, look,

1975
01:25:25,520 --> 01:25:28,800
Speaker 1: that's that's the league, man, That's what this league is

1976
01:25:28,880 --> 01:25:29,599
Speaker 1: all about.

1977
01:25:29,960 --> 01:25:34,240
Speaker 10: Every game you're in, you really would like to win

1978
01:25:34,320 --> 01:25:37,640
Speaker 10: in a convincing fashion. As I tell guys, it's not

1979
01:25:38,800 --> 01:25:44,320
Speaker 10: it's the big schools versus the smallest It's NFL football,

1980
01:25:44,360 --> 01:25:47,240
Speaker 10: So every week you're playing against competitive opponents. It's not

1981
01:25:47,400 --> 01:25:50,280
Speaker 10: just oh, this is a w just because this team

1982
01:25:50,320 --> 01:25:52,559
Speaker 10: is on the schedule every week. You got to bring

1983
01:25:52,600 --> 01:25:55,400
Speaker 10: your best every single week. So whether it's a close game,

1984
01:25:55,439 --> 01:25:57,680
Speaker 10: whether it's not close, you just got to find a

1985
01:25:57,680 --> 01:26:00,240
Speaker 10: way to finish with the win. And that's what our

1986
01:26:00,280 --> 01:26:03,320
Speaker 10: guys are focused on. It's not focused on how many

1987
01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:06,720
Speaker 10: times we've been in one possession games. Guys, players, you

1988
01:26:06,760 --> 01:26:09,200
Speaker 10: don't think that way. You just think about going out.

1989
01:26:09,200 --> 01:26:10,320
Speaker 10: Whatever is in front.

1990
01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:12,679
Speaker 7: Of you, you attack it, you execute the right way,

1991
01:26:12,880 --> 01:26:13,160
Speaker 7: and you.

1992
01:26:13,160 --> 01:26:16,280
Speaker 10: Focus on winning that particular down and however the game

1993
01:26:16,360 --> 01:26:19,120
Speaker 10: shapes out. Right, we know they're gonna be tight. We

1994
01:26:19,200 --> 01:26:21,760
Speaker 10: know it always comes down to the fourth quarter, right,

1995
01:26:21,800 --> 01:26:24,000
Speaker 10: And that's why they have the red Zone channel.

1996
01:26:24,320 --> 01:26:26,080
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, coach right about that. That's why they

1997
01:26:26,080 --> 01:26:29,120
Speaker 1: have the red Zone channel. And Scott Hansen always talks

1998
01:26:29,120 --> 01:26:31,160
Speaker 1: about the witching hour when you have like four or

1999
01:26:31,200 --> 01:26:33,240
Speaker 1: five games that are all close. Man, this league is

2000
01:26:33,280 --> 01:26:36,200
Speaker 1: all close. Everybody's got the same salary cap. You're blowing

2001
01:26:36,200 --> 01:26:38,280
Speaker 1: teams out. It's not what this league is all about.

2002
01:26:39,200 --> 01:26:41,439
Speaker 1: We'll hear a little bit more from CJ. In a

2003
01:26:41,439 --> 01:26:44,160
Speaker 1: little bit about that. He is kind of a pointed

2004
01:26:44,240 --> 01:26:46,080
Speaker 1: question back at the media. We'll get to that in

2005
01:26:46,320 --> 01:26:50,840
Speaker 1: just a second. But Asdamika ryans talking about games being close, man,

2006
01:26:50,880 --> 01:26:52,040
Speaker 1: it's why you got red zone channel.

2007
01:26:52,040 --> 01:26:52,920
Speaker 2: Okay, let's get to CJ.

2008
01:26:53,000 --> 01:26:56,200
Speaker 1: Stropp asked, of course, the question that has been on

2009
01:26:56,240 --> 01:26:58,559
Speaker 1: everybody's mind about the offense.

2010
01:26:58,640 --> 01:27:02,479
Speaker 2: Where's it going, what's the progress? He says, they're really close.

2011
01:27:02,840 --> 01:27:06,240
Speaker 1: And I know that people, some that I know very well,

2012
01:27:06,600 --> 01:27:10,000
Speaker 1: have been barking at this, really upset about it. And

2013
01:27:10,120 --> 01:27:12,679
Speaker 1: essentially the point is, okay, well then prove it. Well

2014
01:27:12,680 --> 01:27:15,840
Speaker 1: it's an opportunity to prove it. Against Jacksonville Jaguars. But

2015
01:27:15,920 --> 01:27:18,760
Speaker 1: CJ said, yeah, man, I think we're moving closer to

2016
01:27:18,800 --> 01:27:19,880
Speaker 1: what it is that we want to be.

2017
01:27:20,200 --> 01:27:22,599
Speaker 9: They're really close. You know, we're like one or two

2018
01:27:22,640 --> 01:27:25,360
Speaker 9: plays away from you know, when in the tight games

2019
01:27:25,400 --> 01:27:27,680
Speaker 9: gets good teams and some two weeks he so you know,

2020
01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:30,360
Speaker 9: we're still building, still growing still you know again used

2021
01:27:30,400 --> 01:27:32,960
Speaker 9: to play on one another. So but yeah, we're very close.

2022
01:27:33,760 --> 01:27:35,320
Speaker 2: So here's my frustration with this.

2023
01:27:36,040 --> 01:27:41,720
Speaker 1: People get upset hearing CJ tmico us.

2024
01:27:41,600 --> 01:27:42,320
Speaker 2: Talk about it.

2025
01:27:42,479 --> 01:27:45,000
Speaker 1: Now it's a little different for us because Mark and

2026
01:27:45,000 --> 01:27:47,400
Speaker 1: I we can avoid that because we know that's something

2027
01:27:47,439 --> 01:27:48,400
Speaker 1: that you know, people.

2028
01:27:48,240 --> 01:27:50,120
Speaker 2: Don't want to hear her or go prove it or whatever.

2029
01:27:50,280 --> 01:27:52,439
Speaker 1: We can catch it because we got the mic, We

2030
01:27:52,560 --> 01:27:54,519
Speaker 1: got thirty minutes, we get an hour, we got two

2031
01:27:54,520 --> 01:27:56,519
Speaker 1: hours to be able to talk and discuss it.

2032
01:27:57,240 --> 01:27:58,799
Speaker 2: But we also aren't being.

2033
01:27:58,720 --> 01:28:01,680
Speaker 1: Asked the question every single time we go to a

2034
01:28:01,760 --> 01:28:05,000
Speaker 1: damn press conference. What are you gonna say? How do

2035
01:28:05,040 --> 01:28:07,320
Speaker 1: you change up the answer to the press conference?

2036
01:28:07,560 --> 01:28:08,200
Speaker 4: You don't?

2037
01:28:09,120 --> 01:28:11,679
Speaker 1: You say, yeah, we're getting closer, we're doing better things.

2038
01:28:11,720 --> 01:28:15,080
Speaker 1: And he's right in a sense that we have been close.

2039
01:28:15,560 --> 01:28:17,200
Speaker 1: You make a couple of plays against the Rams. You

2040
01:28:17,240 --> 01:28:19,599
Speaker 1: want to know you make those plays, you probably are

2041
01:28:19,600 --> 01:28:21,599
Speaker 1: gonna make some plays against the Bucks you're two and zero,

2042
01:28:21,840 --> 01:28:23,680
Speaker 1: but you didn't. And now you gotta climb out of

2043
01:28:23,680 --> 01:28:27,200
Speaker 1: a hole. But that's not the question being asked. The

2044
01:28:27,320 --> 01:28:32,439
Speaker 1: questions are being asked so it begets that answer. So

2045
01:28:32,479 --> 01:28:34,679
Speaker 1: if you're getting mad, get mad at people were answering

2046
01:28:34,680 --> 01:28:39,240
Speaker 1: the damn same question, and you know who I'm mad at.

2047
01:28:39,560 --> 01:28:40,320
Speaker 2: So there we go.

2048
01:28:40,360 --> 01:28:43,760
Speaker 1: Okay, calm down, John, here we go now to that

2049
01:28:44,200 --> 01:28:48,400
Speaker 1: all being said, what are the things that CJ thinks

2050
01:28:48,479 --> 01:28:51,920
Speaker 1: he can improve on and help the team get better.

2051
01:28:52,200 --> 01:28:54,760
Speaker 1: He kinda had a really interesting right off the top

2052
01:28:54,880 --> 01:28:56,320
Speaker 1: one word everything.

2053
01:28:56,920 --> 01:29:00,439
Speaker 9: I don't know everything. I can always be better. I

2054
01:29:00,560 --> 01:29:03,080
Speaker 9: told them the other day, like, if anything he sees

2055
01:29:03,320 --> 01:29:06,240
Speaker 9: or anybody sees, I can be better and let me know,

2056
01:29:06,400 --> 01:29:09,240
Speaker 9: you know. I think I my process has really been

2057
01:29:09,240 --> 01:29:11,880
Speaker 9: good lately. I'll see the field well, putting the ball

2058
01:29:12,040 --> 01:29:16,320
Speaker 9: is supposed to be, with the coverages and whatnot, and

2059
01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:18,599
Speaker 9: some things. It's just I didn't really get a ton

2060
01:29:18,640 --> 01:29:20,720
Speaker 9: of reps with some of the guys we're getting in

2061
01:29:21,040 --> 01:29:24,439
Speaker 9: the game at receiver, so that's a little bit of

2062
01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:27,439
Speaker 9: a challenge. But I think that's one of my biggest things,

2063
01:29:27,479 --> 01:29:29,599
Speaker 9: just being the coach on the field, you know, and

2064
01:29:29,640 --> 01:29:32,080
Speaker 9: taking that step. And it takes time, it's not overnight.

2065
01:29:32,160 --> 01:29:33,640
Speaker 9: So that's the area I think I can go.

2066
01:29:34,080 --> 01:29:35,640
Speaker 1: One of the things I love about CJ is how

2067
01:29:35,720 --> 01:29:38,719
Speaker 1: hypercritical he is about himself. That he's always looking inward,

2068
01:29:38,920 --> 01:29:41,439
Speaker 1: trying to find the right answers for himself, knowing that

2069
01:29:41,479 --> 01:29:43,960
Speaker 1: if he does better, offense does better, then you don't

2070
01:29:43,960 --> 01:29:46,280
Speaker 1: get asked the question about where the offense is et cetera,

2071
01:29:46,360 --> 01:29:50,439
Speaker 1: et cetera. So that being said, I'm just I'm still

2072
01:29:50,439 --> 01:29:52,880
Speaker 1: stuck on that, still suck on that whole thing.

2073
01:29:53,640 --> 01:29:54,920
Speaker 2: But I'll get past it either way.

2074
01:29:55,800 --> 01:29:58,320
Speaker 1: Dimko has asked this a little while ago two about

2075
01:29:58,320 --> 01:30:02,480
Speaker 1: close games, and I think CJ has a better response

2076
01:30:02,479 --> 01:30:06,240
Speaker 1: in a sense because he's like, look at the scores.

2077
01:30:06,880 --> 01:30:08,639
Speaker 2: What are the scores every single week?

2078
01:30:09,160 --> 01:30:10,760
Speaker 4: How many blowouts.

2079
01:30:10,200 --> 01:30:11,160
Speaker 2: Are there in the NFL?

2080
01:30:11,280 --> 01:30:11,880
Speaker 4: There aren't.

2081
01:30:12,760 --> 01:30:14,759
Speaker 2: I mean we're only two. I'll take a win anywhere

2082
01:30:14,800 --> 01:30:15,200
Speaker 2: you can get it.

2083
01:30:15,280 --> 01:30:18,960
Speaker 1: That's what CJ says here about just winning a game

2084
01:30:19,120 --> 01:30:20,920
Speaker 1: and you know, doing what you gotta do to win

2085
01:30:21,040 --> 01:30:21,519
Speaker 1: that game.

2086
01:30:21,920 --> 01:30:23,479
Speaker 9: I mean, how many blog wins do you see it?

2087
01:30:23,720 --> 01:30:26,320
Speaker 9: And we've had those games like we played New England

2088
01:30:26,360 --> 01:30:28,559
Speaker 9: last year, had a really good game again, same played

2089
01:30:28,560 --> 01:30:31,439
Speaker 9: the Chargers day, same thing. My rookie year. We had

2090
01:30:31,439 --> 01:30:34,560
Speaker 9: a couple of block wins. So I mean, you know

2091
01:30:34,600 --> 01:30:37,639
Speaker 9: what I'm saying, it's yeah, I mean, you know, if

2092
01:30:37,640 --> 01:30:39,600
Speaker 9: you can blow everybody out, that's the NFL. It's the

2093
01:30:39,600 --> 01:30:40,840
Speaker 9: best players in the world for a reason, you know

2094
01:30:40,840 --> 01:30:43,320
Speaker 9: what I'm saying. So I don't know, I just want

2095
01:30:43,320 --> 01:30:45,240
Speaker 9: to I don't care how it looks where it's at.

2096
01:30:45,640 --> 01:30:46,200
Speaker 5: You just want to.

2097
01:30:46,160 --> 01:30:51,960
Speaker 1: Win a men, because the last I looked, it says

2098
01:30:52,240 --> 01:30:56,040
Speaker 1: w L T in the column this is win loss, tie.

2099
01:30:56,800 --> 01:30:59,880
Speaker 1: Doesn't say pretty win, doesn't say ugly loss. It doesn't

2100
01:31:00,120 --> 01:31:04,040
Speaker 1: say oh now it has the point discrepancy. But that

2101
01:31:04,120 --> 01:31:08,480
Speaker 1: has never really come into play in a playoff seating situation,

2102
01:31:08,640 --> 01:31:11,000
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff. You just play to win games.

2103
01:31:11,000 --> 01:31:14,160
Speaker 1: As Herman Edwards said, you played win a game, win

2104
01:31:14,240 --> 01:31:16,759
Speaker 1: a game twenty three, twenty two, forty three, forty two.

2105
01:31:16,840 --> 01:31:20,639
Speaker 1: I don't care ninety three to six. However, you got

2106
01:31:20,640 --> 01:31:20,960
Speaker 1: to do it.

2107
01:31:21,000 --> 01:31:21,280
Speaker 4: Do it.

2108
01:31:22,520 --> 01:31:27,160
Speaker 1: That's that's it. So go in a football game in

2109
01:31:27,520 --> 01:31:30,719
Speaker 1: Duval County. Speaking of Duval County, let's hear from Liam

2110
01:31:30,800 --> 01:31:34,799
Speaker 1: Cohen as he's getting his team ready for the Houston

2111
01:31:34,840 --> 01:31:36,080
Speaker 1: Texans to come to town.

2112
01:31:36,520 --> 01:31:38,439
Speaker 2: And you know the Jags are ready.

2113
01:31:38,520 --> 01:31:40,960
Speaker 1: Just listen to this answer from Liam Cohen about the

2114
01:31:41,000 --> 01:31:41,880
Speaker 1: Texans come to town.

2115
01:31:42,120 --> 01:31:45,559
Speaker 11: Yeah, we talked just now as a team and really

2116
01:31:45,720 --> 01:31:49,360
Speaker 11: just talked about the focus being on us, and we

2117
01:31:49,479 --> 01:31:51,759
Speaker 11: need it to be. We don't have time to waste

2118
01:31:51,960 --> 01:31:56,880
Speaker 11: energy or emotional energy on anything else besides fixing and

2119
01:31:56,960 --> 01:32:00,799
Speaker 11: correcting the issues and mistakes from our game and putting

2120
01:32:00,800 --> 01:32:04,040
Speaker 11: our effort into you know, we had a huge.

2121
01:32:03,800 --> 01:32:05,120
Speaker 8: Indivision opponent this week.

2122
01:32:05,240 --> 01:32:06,960
Speaker 11: Yes, we have an opponent we have to play and

2123
01:32:07,000 --> 01:32:10,439
Speaker 11: prepare for, but we really have to focus on us

2124
01:32:10,520 --> 01:32:12,800
Speaker 11: right now and get some of this stuff cleaned up

2125
01:32:12,840 --> 01:32:14,799
Speaker 11: that we, you know, messed up yesterday.

2126
01:32:15,080 --> 01:32:16,400
Speaker 8: Coaches, players, everybody.

2127
01:32:16,720 --> 01:32:18,800
Speaker 11: But you know, I think at this point it's so

2128
01:32:18,960 --> 01:32:22,160
Speaker 11: early like these Yeah, there may be who knows what emotions,

2129
01:32:22,360 --> 01:32:24,400
Speaker 11: you know, I can't speak to that, but I can

2130
01:32:24,520 --> 01:32:27,000
Speaker 11: say that these guys, I think they'll come in with

2131
01:32:27,080 --> 01:32:29,679
Speaker 11: the right mindset mentality this week to come and.

2132
01:32:29,640 --> 01:32:31,400
Speaker 8: Get this thing right in terms of things.

2133
01:32:31,400 --> 01:32:33,200
Speaker 11: We got to get fixed and be ready to go

2134
01:32:33,240 --> 01:32:35,280
Speaker 11: play a tough, physical game that we're going to go

2135
01:32:35,280 --> 01:32:36,320
Speaker 11: we have to play on Sunday.

2136
01:32:36,680 --> 01:32:38,679
Speaker 2: I love that response from Liam Cohen.

2137
01:32:39,200 --> 01:32:43,519
Speaker 1: Loved it because he's putting the focus right back on

2138
01:32:43,560 --> 01:32:46,200
Speaker 1: the game. I will say that is going to be

2139
01:32:46,280 --> 01:32:51,360
Speaker 1: a big challenge for them. That situation that happened last year,

2140
01:32:52,439 --> 01:32:55,280
Speaker 1: it was talked about, it was talked about the Jacksonville media.

2141
01:32:55,400 --> 01:32:56,360
Speaker 2: Jacksonville media is.

2142
01:32:56,320 --> 01:33:00,400
Speaker 1: Talking about this, and you know, the Texas is coming back.

2143
01:33:00,479 --> 01:33:03,280
Speaker 1: And besides the fact that that incident happened, last year.

2144
01:33:03,280 --> 01:33:06,559
Speaker 1: The Texans have gone down to Duval County in one

2145
01:33:07,720 --> 01:33:12,519
Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen, twenty twenty, twenty one, twenty two, twenty three,

2146
01:33:12,760 --> 01:33:13,519
Speaker 1: and twenty four.

2147
01:33:14,640 --> 01:33:17,839
Speaker 2: That to me is the bigger issue.

2148
01:33:18,400 --> 01:33:21,760
Speaker 1: Then oh azizel Shier is coming back to Jacksonville, et cetera,

2149
01:33:21,800 --> 01:33:25,120
Speaker 1: et cetera. Let them be pumped up, let them be

2150
01:33:25,240 --> 01:33:28,960
Speaker 1: over jacked up and do some things wrong because they're

2151
01:33:28,960 --> 01:33:31,080
Speaker 1: focusing on the wrong things. That's why I felt like

2152
01:33:31,120 --> 01:33:34,920
Speaker 1: that quote from Liocn. Cohen was a great one to

2153
01:33:35,040 --> 01:33:39,559
Speaker 1: hone in on because that's the exact right philosophy he's

2154
01:33:39,560 --> 01:33:42,200
Speaker 1: got to have. And it goes with the Texans too,

2155
01:33:42,760 --> 01:33:45,519
Speaker 1: you know the Texans. You know Seth Pain's talked about

2156
01:33:45,520 --> 01:33:49,759
Speaker 1: this and he's absolutely dead on. You know, swarm is

2157
01:33:49,760 --> 01:33:55,320
Speaker 1: is perfect. It's great mentality, but it can't be you know,

2158
01:33:56,080 --> 01:34:02,200
Speaker 1: this hyperkinetic swarm where you're throwing shoulders into guys and

2159
01:34:02,240 --> 01:34:04,840
Speaker 1: you're not making good tackles, and you're getting yourself out

2160
01:34:04,840 --> 01:34:07,360
Speaker 1: of gaps because you're just twitching to get off the ball,

2161
01:34:07,600 --> 01:34:08,360
Speaker 1: all those kind of things.

2162
01:34:08,439 --> 01:34:10,280
Speaker 2: You've got to do things right. The whole key to

2163
01:34:10,320 --> 01:34:11,439
Speaker 2: swarm is doing things right.

2164
01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:16,640
Speaker 1: As Belichick said, do your job, So play with swarm mentality,

2165
01:34:17,479 --> 01:34:21,760
Speaker 1: but do the things right. Turn it up to volume ten,

2166
01:34:22,600 --> 01:34:24,559
Speaker 1: as Ezel Shire talked about in the locker room today.

2167
01:34:24,800 --> 01:34:27,400
Speaker 1: Turn it to volume ten. But if you go from

2168
01:34:27,520 --> 01:34:30,160
Speaker 1: zero to ten, we're gonna make mistakes. We gotta be

2169
01:34:30,280 --> 01:34:32,880
Speaker 1: ramping this thing up throughout, and then there are times

2170
01:34:32,920 --> 01:34:35,080
Speaker 1: when you can really crank up the volume. So there's

2171
01:34:35,080 --> 01:34:37,839
Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of volume for sure on Sunday

2172
01:34:38,120 --> 01:34:42,520
Speaker 1: with Texans and Jags. Texans desperately needing a win. Jags

2173
01:34:42,760 --> 01:34:44,840
Speaker 1: want to prove they can play with the big boys,

2174
01:34:45,160 --> 01:34:47,599
Speaker 1: and this is one of those opportunities. Now, I don't

2175
01:34:47,600 --> 01:34:51,680
Speaker 1: think this is Jacksonville's styled honestly, they don't play as

2176
01:34:51,680 --> 01:34:53,439
Speaker 1: physical as we do. They need to play their style,

2177
01:34:53,479 --> 01:34:56,240
Speaker 1: which is fast, get out and play fast. We got

2178
01:34:56,240 --> 01:35:00,479
Speaker 1: fast guys. We're gonna try and embarrass you with our speed. Jacksonville,

2179
01:35:00,479 --> 01:35:02,920
Speaker 1: That's what I focus on. But hopefully I'm not well,

2180
01:35:02,920 --> 01:35:06,800
Speaker 1: I'm not Jacksonville, thankfully, and hopefully they don't. Hopefully they get,

2181
01:35:07,000 --> 01:35:10,439
Speaker 1: you know, down into Quagmar with us, and if they do,

2182
01:35:10,520 --> 01:35:11,200
Speaker 1: they're gonna.

2183
01:35:10,960 --> 01:35:13,559
Speaker 2: Get physically beat up. If not, well, they might have.

2184
01:35:13,520 --> 01:35:15,320
Speaker 1: A shot because they got some athletes, There's no question

2185
01:35:15,360 --> 01:35:17,320
Speaker 1: about that on that side of the ball. All Right,

2186
01:35:17,360 --> 01:35:20,200
Speaker 1: that's gonna do it for this evening Evening show. A
