Thank you, DP. 9 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:35,560 Speaker 1: It's great to be on the air with you. In fact, 10 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 1: one week from tonight, we'll be at the food Rutgers 11 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: location in Greenway and DJ Reader is scheduled to appear 12 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:43,920 Speaker 1: and my schedule. I mean, I'm not sure if he 13 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 1: formally agreed to it yet, but I did mention that 14 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,559 Speaker 1: he would be there at the team luncheon today, so 15 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:50,520 Speaker 1: that kind of puts the pressure on him. So let's 16 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: just see what happens. Yeah, I think I was thinking 17 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 1: it would not be a player heading into the first Yeah, 18 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 1: I know, I know he said somebody else. But things change, okay, 19 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: and you know, it's it's sports. Things change all the time. 20 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 1: Like things outside the organization, inside the organization wherever, as 21 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, well, DJ Reader, winner of the Spirit 22 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 1: of the Bull Award at the luncheon. We were at 23 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 1: the team luncheon today. You did a really great job 24 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 1: of him seeing it. I don't know why I'm saying that, 25 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,320 Speaker 1: because I shouldn't be surprised, but you do it every 26 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: single year, and you even manage to make Bill O'Brien chuckle. 27 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: I did, yes, oh yeah, because he told me I was. 28 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: I mentioned his radio showed a very quick plug and 29 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: I did it in speed talking and he said I 30 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 1: wished the radio show went that fast. But he said it, 31 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 1: and I heard it. No one else did, so I 32 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: repeated the joke. I'm glad you because I saw you 33 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: stop and I heard him. I heard his mouth move, 34 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: and then I saw you stop and start laughing. But 35 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: so I'm glad you you shared what it was, because 36 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: everybody got to do. We should have him miked up 37 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 1: because that would be gold. The other thing is when 38 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 1: they're these giant video boards, right and he's on camera, 39 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 1: when whoever is at the podium, and you see him 40 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 1: there with his facial expressions, every single one of them 41 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: gold gold yeah. I mean we should just have Bill 42 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: O'Brien facial cam, you know, just like what his expressions 43 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: reacting to what everybody's saying, and a lot of laughs 44 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: and sometimes not about anybody speaking, but just you can 45 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 1: just tell, like while he's eating lunch, he's thinking, well, 46 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: you know, can we get on with practice because he 47 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: knows he has a practice this afternoon, he's got a 48 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: big game on Thursday. Which a lot of people think, hey, 49 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: it's just preseason, but for these coaches, they're gonna be very, 50 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: very busy this week, very as they evaluate and trim 51 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: the roster from ninety to fifty three. They don't have 52 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 1: that cut that happens from ninety to seventy five. They 53 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: go straight to the fifty three. We've seen a few 54 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: transactions this week already, but I mean it's going to 55 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 1: be a very it's it's it's an intense week, I 56 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: think for a lot of players. The players were also 57 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:47,119 Speaker 1: at the luncheon pretty much everyone. Yeah, well I think 58 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:53,559 Speaker 1: everyone who's on the roster, yes, everyone who's reported for camp. Yeah, 59 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 1: I think everybody's reported was at that luncheon. And the 60 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,399 Speaker 1: idea is that every table gets a player, so that's 61 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,119 Speaker 1: pretty cool for those attending to kickoff lunch and every 62 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: year since well, we didn't do it two years ago 63 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: because of Harvey, and I think we started year two 64 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: of franchise history and I've seen them all. I've been 65 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: really lucky to do that. But it's always fun. It's 66 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: fun to be around there. I think you're right, though, 67 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: it's a really busy week for the coaches because this 68 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: is right in the middle of all of it, and 69 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: they have a game Thursday, and they're preparing two different 70 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: teams this week. They're preparing the team that's gonna face 71 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: New Orleans and they're preparing a team, a squad of 72 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: people that's gonna play Thursday night, because you know, the 73 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 1: starters aren't going to play, and they have to field 74 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 1: a team on Thursday night. So it's a very kind 75 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: of strange week. And there's some overlap there as well, 76 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: so some of the players have double duty. So it's 77 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: just kind of interesting to see how they put it 78 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: all together. Now, if you come to the game Thursday, 79 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: you'll probably see Watson and Hopkins warm up because they'll 80 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: do that pregame warm up stuff and you'll get all 81 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: excited thinking, ooh, maybe not going to happen. One of 82 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 1: my favorite parts of the lunch and is usually when 83 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: they bring the players up there and ask them some questions. 84 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 1: There were some kids from the Boys and Girls Club, 85 00:03:57,960 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: a little girl who's saying and she had a couple 86 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: of players. She was amazing. Yeah, she's the youth of 87 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: the Year at the Boys and Girls Clubs of Houston 88 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: and she was incredible, really did a nice job. She 89 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: had some questions to ask questions. Is one thing you 90 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 1: did to sing in front of an entire ballroom full 91 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: of strangers? Yes, is quite something else. But we go. 92 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,160 Speaker 1: But we got to hear Titus Howard. I think he 93 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,919 Speaker 1: gave the players courage because sometimes they're shy to do 94 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: stuff like that, but they see a little girl singing. 95 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 1: I could tell you. Titus Howard was totally unscripted, like 96 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 1: we knew. I was like, how do they know the song? 97 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: Because they would just join into what she was singing. 98 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: They didn't know. B Mac and Cunningham knew that they 99 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 1: could be asked to sing. They were giving a heads 100 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 1: up because they did it last year and Cunningham's really good. 101 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: But Howard had no clue. And JJ said, oh, well, 102 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: forget about those guys. What about Howard's He's right over here. 103 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: He was at the McNair table. Yes, he's right over here. 104 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 1: Let's go come on, big guy. And he went up 105 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 1: there and he started singing the same song. She was yeah, 106 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: and that Cunningham did. It was great. I thought that 107 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: was really impromptu. And we'll have a video up. If 108 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,119 Speaker 1: it's not up all ready, you'll be on Houston Texas 109 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 1: dot com and the app and everything. You can check 110 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: it out. We'll pump it out on social media. Another 111 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 1: big announcement. You actually broke the news at the team luncheon. 112 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 1: It was that October sixth will be known as Founder's Day. Yes, 113 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 1: from here on four, not just this year, but every year. 114 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: And October sixth, nineteen ninety nine is when the NFL 115 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: awarded this franchise to Bob McNair. Ye corect. Isn't that 116 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 1: incredible that twenty years to the day we have Founder's 117 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 1: Day at the stadium and Bob McNair will go into 118 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: the Ring of Honor. I just think it's incredible stuff 119 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: right there, that you have that kind of timing to 120 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 1: it all, and it'll be a special day and I'm 121 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,919 Speaker 1: I'm already stressing about if I'm going to be the 122 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: guy like I was with DeAndre Johnson Ring of Honor 123 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,559 Speaker 1: to go down and do the podium thing at the half. 124 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: Remember that you had a run down there. I literally 125 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: ran the so they held an elevator for me. I 126 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: jumped in, went downstairs and we timed it. We had 127 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: a dress rehearsal in the morning, like at seven am 128 00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 1: to go over this to see if the timing would work. 129 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: I run down the hall, run out of the field. 130 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: Then I go to the podium, do the spiel and look, 131 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: that's the easy part. I can't Jackie Maldonado. Can I 132 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: give her props? Can she's the game director, the stage manager, 133 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 1: if you will, for a halftime and whatever else we're 134 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: doing game. But she does so much more than that. 135 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: But the at the rehearsal, she's so sweet and nice 136 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: and so sweet. At the rehearsal, she's like, you got 137 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 1: like she's got that place under total control. It is 138 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:35,359 Speaker 1: her domain. Everything goes right. You know what if you 139 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: go back to Vanilla ice to whatever else the halftime 140 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: performers have been over the over the past years. And 141 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: this was no joke because you had to have the 142 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: line and the players and Andre Johnson coming out. It 143 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: was a huge setup to have Andre Johnson with all 144 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: the former players lining up, and he had to come 145 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 1: out fast enough. They were like, when we were rehearsing 146 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: in the morning, we didn't even have him there. So 147 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 1: we had a fake Andrey Johnson. And it was like, 148 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: and fake players, because you're not gonna make them come 149 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 1: seven in the morning, but you will make me come 150 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 1: out there. Uh. And it was just like, no, Andre 151 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 1: Johnson's gonna have to go out, go through faster. So 152 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: we had to give him the heads up, you're gonna 153 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: have to go through faster. And she was you know, 154 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: Dave got a person to say come on, come on, 155 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: come on, come on, but he's trying to high five 156 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: all the players, get up to the stage, do the thing, 157 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: and then out you have five and a half minutes 158 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: total and he's given a speech. You know, it's crazy 159 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: how quick it has to go. Because it's NFL halftime. 160 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: You can't just say we're not ready to kick off 161 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: NFL league. I mean, this is this is the league. 162 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: It's thirteen minutes or bust. So well, to your credit, 163 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: you made it back to the booth I don't think 164 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: you missed a single play. I didn't miss a single play. 165 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: I ran out of there. That was your big thing. 166 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 1: I thought, well, if you miss maybe one player, no no, 167 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: I mean no, he he would he had, You'd got 168 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: my back. But I want to call every play in 169 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: the history of the franchise. So it's I had to 170 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: make it back. The thing is though, to be able 171 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: to make it downstairs too, you know, to at the 172 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: end of the half, like let's not have let's have 173 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: a kneel down. Kneel down would be good, you know, 174 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: kill thirty seconds, you know, do something like that. I mean, 175 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: don't have like this last second field goal, because then 176 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: it hits zero and I'd like the lead before it 177 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: hit zero. So October six Founders Day, it's against the 178 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons. Probably made that all about me. I mean, 179 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: we have a special day. I'm talking about it. It's 180 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: also about it's also about mister Bob mcnaw. You're you're 181 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: a part of that whole ceremony, Atlanta Falcons. Isn't it 182 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: strange that the franchise was awarded to the Texans from Atlanta. 183 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: I just feel like this is a whole the juxtaposition 184 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: of it all. Twenty years later, we're playing Atlanta on 185 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 1: the twentieth anniversary of when the team was awarded in Atlanta. Incredible, 186 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: it just had absolutely amazing. So we've got a story 187 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: about that on Houston Texans dot com. Also what the 188 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: Texans plan to do every October six from here on forward. 189 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 1: It's really nice, a really nice way to honor mister 190 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: Bob McNair's legacy. So be sure to check that out. Mark. 191 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 1: You know, it's been a pretty quiet day, wouldn't you say? 192 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: On when did it start blowing up? Around the lunch 193 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 1: and right after that? I feel like I came back 194 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,559 Speaker 1: from the luncheon and Clowney was trending on my timeline, 195 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: but I thought nothing. Could something have happened? When all 196 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: the big brass were in a ballroom at the team, 197 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: a lot of people noticed O'Brien on his phone, and 198 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: I was wondering what he was doing, if he was 199 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: checking his emails, if maybe he was looking at a speech. 200 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: I was just reading Twitter and entertainment stuff like what's 201 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 1: Taylor switch stuff too? Twitter? Yes, So, but you know what, 202 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 1: I thought the same thing when we came back with 203 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: he was he was on his phone, yeah something, and 204 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 1: a lot of reports out there about the Dolphins and 205 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: Clowney and did he meet with the dolphins? Reportedly did 206 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: fired his agent, Bus Cook, who yes, he's had some 207 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: notable clients, you know. So this I don't know what happened, 208 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: and obviously speculation runs, maybe not enough, maybe too much. 209 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: Who knows. I mean, it's like I was. I was 210 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: actually huddling up with the six ten guys. Always a 211 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: dangerous thing to do about this. I'm just kidding. We 212 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: had a good time after the luncheon and we were 213 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 1: talking for a few moments and speculating, of course, because 214 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: that's what you do. We weren't on the air doing this, 215 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: but there were a lot of different scenarios where you 216 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: could imagine that a player might fire an agent, and 217 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: I mean you could, you could make any of them fit. 218 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 1: So who knows, until we know, until he gets back 219 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 1: here and signs this thing and plays here, doesn't play, 220 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: whatever's going to happen. So I can tell you this, 221 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:11,439 Speaker 1: I'd love to see him play here, But if he's not, 222 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 1: I hope it's um it's good for both parties involved. 223 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: Whoever engages in a transaction let's just put it that way. Yeah, 224 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: it's to be continued, so nothing official from the team 225 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: obviously obviously not obviously nothing yet so you know, we'll 226 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: just that's a wait and see it as as it 227 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 1: has been pretty much in fact the beginning of camp. 228 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 1: In fact, when it happens, you can expect not too 229 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: much official for you know, until a stretch of time 230 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: because remember there's no media availability until game time, right, 231 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: So I mean they would release anything that they would 232 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: have to, you know, they would release it, but I 233 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,439 Speaker 1: don't think you'll see much from Bill O'Brien before that. Well, 234 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: he has to come in and sign his franchise tender. Yeah, 235 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: so when is the latest he can do that. I 236 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: think it's next week. Well, I think he could, good question. 237 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: I know we could do it next week. Well week one, 238 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: week one, you miss checks and I'm not sure how 239 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,320 Speaker 1: works after that. But I think it's Monday when game 240 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: week starts something like that, So it's early next week. 241 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 1: It could still be quiet if he wants to wait 242 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: until it could you know, And I think the guy, 243 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 1: I think he wants to play football, so you know, 244 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: it would behoove him to get in and play here 245 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 1: or if it's gonna be a transaction or what. Who knows. 246 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,839 Speaker 1: Deep I mean, look, as I talk about this, I'm 247 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,559 Speaker 1: thinking the options are limitless of what could possibly happen 248 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: out there. But you know, he's a heck of a 249 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,319 Speaker 1: player and you'd love to see him out there and 250 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 1: whatever it is, I don't want to see him for 251 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 1: an opponent this year, and preferably not in the AFC. 252 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,439 Speaker 1: I'm certainly not in the division, but at the very 253 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: least not in the division. How about that? And not 254 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: this year? I think that would be my minimal See, 255 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:50,439 Speaker 1: if they're asking me, that's my minimal requirement if you're 256 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 1: gonna make a deal. If not, look, I'm I'm very 257 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 1: happy with him. I love him, you know. I think 258 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: he's great on the field and he's wonderful to be 259 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 1: around and everything. But I know that these things go 260 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: well beyond that and it's about long term and everything else. Contrary, 261 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: it's definitely going to be a storyline to watch. I 262 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 1: want to get your test the waters with you on 263 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 1: this one. Bill O'Brien did address the media after luncheon. Yes, 264 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 1: he gave a few snippets as far as players health 265 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: and updates, so let's put it through the Bill O'Brien. 266 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: All right, Zach Fulton, he said, I don't. I think 267 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: I would be optimistic about him being ready to practice, 268 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: not today, but pretty soon. Okay. That means I would 269 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: say he's probably available week one. Okay, because Zach full 270 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: left the the preseason game against Dallas. Yeah, they accordedly 271 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: with a turf toe. Yeah, which could be on that 272 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: and I think there are varying degrees of that. I 273 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:42,959 Speaker 1: think that might be my first injury. I do with 274 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: the Houston Methodist minutes the game week next week. That's 275 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 1: a good one. Yeah, to do turf toe, to talk 276 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: about it, because there at there's a lot of misunderstanding. 277 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: It's worse than it sounds. It sounds so innocuous that 278 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: people think, oh, that's it, but it's toil, you know. 279 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: No Cecil Shorts had said that was the worst injury 280 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: he'd ever had, And I think it's because it's one 281 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 1: of those that just sort of well, the word toe confusing. 282 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:05,319 Speaker 1: I said it. I think last night or of the 283 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: night before, I said it should be foot should be 284 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 1: considered a foot injury. The fact that you say toe, 285 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: because the toe is long, it's like it goes inside 286 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: the foot and there's all the hip bones connected to 287 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: the what there's a lot going on there, tep Okay, 288 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 1: let's see kiki qt uh he bill Obrian said he 289 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 1: was not hopeful for Kiki Qti to play in week one. Quote, 290 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:28,319 Speaker 1: but stranger things have happened out he's out. But when yeah, 291 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: thank you, thank you for that. So when does he 292 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 1: come back week two or three? Can you read into that? 293 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: Okay uh? And then he was at, I don't know this. 294 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 1: By the way, this is my Bill O'Brien. You know 295 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: tea leaves reading interpretation we used to have with the 296 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: Kubiak translator. Okay are He was asked, are you hopeful 297 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:46,679 Speaker 1: that Titus Howard and Gregg Man's will be available for 298 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 1: week one? He said, quote, we'll see. I think those 299 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 1: guys are like day to day. I think they're working 300 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: hard to get back, so I'm hopeful. That sounds pretty good. 301 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 1: That sounds like week two at the latest, sounds fifty 302 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 1: fifty two. Yeah, I see. Here's the thing man with 303 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: without man If you don't have Manse, who is your 304 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: backup setter, because it would be Fulton, but he's nicked up. 305 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: So now it's Lamette, and he got a long look 306 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 1: on the field, but he came back into the game, 307 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: so he's okay, you know, And okay, I put that 308 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: in air quotes because I'm sure none of these guys 309 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: are okay after a few weeks of playing football. You know, 310 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: they're all dealing with something. But he can play. So 311 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 1: that makes a very interesting injury situation that on line. 312 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: These are tricky injuries. But it was good to see 313 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: these guys in uniform at practice yesterday. That was nice. Well, 314 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: we have to see a little bit of that, not 315 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: a whole lot practice practice. It's it's no longer training 316 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: camp where we could watch the entire length of practice. 317 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: Now it's just a little portion in game mode. Now 318 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: we're a regular season mode, which means we see a 319 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: little bit of stretching and activation and we don't sweat 320 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: as much and we're indoors, so I'm not going to complain. Yep, 321 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: I'm not going to complain at all. All right, Mark, 322 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: thanks so much. We've got coming up next Drew Doherty 323 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 1: with a J. Moore some facts about him that you 324 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: did not know I didn't to know.

It Drew calls it the Dirty Does 347 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: and it's lots of questions he asks these players, and 348 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 1: a little bit of background on a J.

It's 351 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 1: time for the Dirty Dozen. So we're gonna start things 352 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: off with you and your twin brothers CJ. He plays 353 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: for the Detroit Lions. How many hours per day on 354 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 1: average are you two on the phone together? Man? So 355 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 1: when we leave, when I leave the facilities, I'm calling 356 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 1: him as soon as I as soon as i'm as 357 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 1: I'm walking to the truck, I'm on the phone with him, 358 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: and he's an hour ahead of me. So he goes 359 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: to sleep before I do. But we're pretty much on 360 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: the phone all the way up until he goes to sleep. 361 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: I mean, so I can't even calculate the time spend, 362 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: but we talk heavy every day. Hours easily to estimate, right, Yes, sir, 363 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 1: for sure, all of those hours though, how much time 364 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,399 Speaker 1: is spent not talking like you guys are just on 365 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 1: the phone together, not talking some of that time. Right, Well, 366 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 1: I mean so we're so closed, man, we can just 367 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 1: we can just be on the phone while doing other things. 368 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: But just we have that connection, just used with us 369 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: being so used to being around each other, we can 370 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,160 Speaker 1: sit on the phone and be quiet and where it's 371 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,120 Speaker 1: not being said for three to five minutes or just 372 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:26,880 Speaker 1: we just do that, man, We do it a lot, 373 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,200 Speaker 1: and we just have to talk to each other. Pizza, 374 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: hamburgers or tacos. Pizza, hamburger, tacos. So why didn't put 375 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 1: chicken in that? But all right? Well, type of chicken 376 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 1: fried chicken from Popeyes? Spice your mild spicy? Thank you? 377 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,640 Speaker 1: Is there anything worse than people? And they only order 378 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 1: the regular. I don't know how you get the regular 379 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,640 Speaker 1: chicken from Popeyes. You gotta get the spicy, you gotta 380 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,399 Speaker 1: get the spicy. It's the best. I could keep talking 381 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 1: about this, but I'd get in trouble with my wife's family, 382 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: so I'm gonna be quiet. Mississippi heat or Texas heat? 383 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,200 Speaker 1: Which is worse? Oh down, that's a close line. That's 384 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: a close line. I should say Mississippi heat or Houston heat, 385 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 1: right right? I mean being out there on that farm 386 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 1: in Mississippi, on our farm in Mississippi. Man, it gets 387 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: pretty tough out there sometime. But also being out here 388 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 1: doing training camp. So I believe they go Nick and Nick. 389 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 1: I can't. I can't give a win or to either one. 390 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 1: What'd you guys grow on the farm. We grow chickens 391 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: for Tyson, and we have cattle, we have horses, and 392 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 1: that's pretty much it. So you're no stranger to hard 393 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 1: work or you no, sir man. That's that's what I 394 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: believe in. That's how we were raised, that's what we do. 395 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 1: We work hard. What would a day be like on 396 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,119 Speaker 1: the farm when you're growing up, waking up early in 397 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,719 Speaker 1: the morning, pretty much daybreak, chicken the chicken houses, feeding 398 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 1: the animals, getting on a tractor, and bushhogging for hours? 399 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 1: What's bushogging? Basically where you get on a tractor? What 400 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: a bushhogger? It's like a it's like mowing the lawn, 401 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:53,400 Speaker 1: but pretty much in just this big pasture. So yeah, 402 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: I'm just killing them, knocking down the weeds and stuff 403 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 1: like that. All right, So now that you're back here, 404 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: when you wake up, when you get going, what happens? Well, first, 405 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: I go, burst my teeth, wash my face. I turn 406 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: on some gospel. Man, I just gotta get going, gotta 407 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 1: give my give my dudes to the Lord. Oh no, 408 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 1: it just put me in a better mood. And I'll 409 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:13,439 Speaker 1: just be ready to go for the day. Come up 410 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: to the facilities, and I'm ready to go with a 411 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,119 Speaker 1: smile on my face. You played it, old Missig. Got 412 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:18,639 Speaker 1: some teammates here that played the old Missigan. A lot 413 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 1: of teammates play in Misissippi State. How tighter are you 414 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 1: Mississippi guys? Oh, we're tight. I mean, even though the rival. Yeah, 415 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: but man, we're all close. We knew each other before 416 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 1: splitting up going to each school, but Mississippi is Mississippi. Man. 417 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: We love each other. We have a bun like no other. 418 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 1: But yeah, we're all brothers. What would your career be 419 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 1: if you were not a football player right now? That's easy. 420 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: I will be a farmer. I will be a farmer. 421 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,160 Speaker 1: I will go getting again our business and that's mainly 422 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 1: chicken farmer, some cattle. But that's that's just the lifestyle 423 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 1: that I can see myself doing for the rest of 424 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 1: my life, and and that I enjoy. I really enjoy 425 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 1: waking up doing that, helping my dad out and stuff 426 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: like that. Do you like country and Western music at all? 427 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 1: I do like some country music. Got a favorite song. 428 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 1: I like a bunch of Sam Hunt. Some people will 429 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: say he's not a country but he has some country music. 430 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:12,199 Speaker 1: I like Blue Tacoma Shoe, Tennessee Whiskey. I got a 431 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,919 Speaker 1: bunch man, but I like him. A. J. Moore always 432 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:16,680 Speaker 1: good talk with you, my friend, Yes, sir, and nice 433 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 1: talking to YouTube man. Thanks. I had no idea that 434 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: AJ Moore worked on a farm, but after knowing that, 435 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 1: it makes sense him and his brother their work ethic. 436 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 1: It's really a shame that when the Lions were in 437 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: town that AJ and his brother couldn't face each other 438 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,400 Speaker 1: because Aja was not practicing that week. But I did 439 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 1: see plenty of those two in the stadium in the 440 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:39,120 Speaker 1: service level. You could tell the difference because CJ. Moore 441 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 1: has a shaved head, so I could kind of tell 442 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: the difference. They would be walking walking together to practice. 443 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: From practice, they got to catch up a little bit 444 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 1: as well. They had one day before the game. I 445 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 1: think Friday was a player's day off, so they got 446 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: to hang out a little bit. But I think it's 447 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 1: It's a really cool when two twin brothers who've never 448 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 1: played against each other get to play against each other, 449 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 1: and hopefully they'll get to match up again sometime soon 450 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,239 Speaker 1: in the future. It'll probably be a few years, but hey, 451 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: you never know. Maybe next preseason again, these two teams 452 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: will get to face each other. All right, But as 453 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:12,400 Speaker 1: far as preseason goes, there's one more game left Thursday night, 454 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,719 Speaker 1: the Texans take on the Rams here at home. I'm 455 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: going to bring on John Harris. He's got some things 456 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 1: that he's going to be looking for in Thursday night's game, 457 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:23,479 Speaker 1: including a clue as to who might make the roster 458 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,440 Speaker 1: based on what he sees in Thursday's game. You're not 459 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: gonna want to miss that. So it's one final segment 460 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: of Texans All Access coming up.

I try and plan to 479 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 1: eat as as close. But when we're on the road, 480 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 1: the press box is really it's difficult to get to, 481 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:42,399 Speaker 1: so it's hard, so I have to stay down at halftime, 482 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: and so I just kind of go to the interview 483 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 1: room or find someplace to sit or whatever down in 484 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: the tunnel. When I'm at home, I can at least 485 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: go to our cafeteria, get the water. There's someplace I 486 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: can actually go. But I have to eat at a 487 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: kind of weird hour depending on because I got to 488 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,640 Speaker 1: go down and do my segment and then I gotta 489 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: be down there for or are unlimited, so I have 490 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,880 Speaker 1: to eat like two and a half to three hours 491 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,880 Speaker 1: for the game, and then the game and then post games. 492 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,440 Speaker 1: So I don't eat for a while, which I'm starving. 493 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: I would have the mother of all headaches. You've suggested 494 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 1: to me to wear a fanny pack, and I don't 495 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 1: know why everyone thinks that this is, but this is 496 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 1: just a no brainer because when I fill in for 497 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: you during the fourth preseason game, I bring a fanny pack. 498 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: It's got granola bars, if it's a water, if it's 499 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 1: a notebook, if it's a couple of pens, if it's mints. Yeah, 500 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 1: I've got everything I need in there. Yeah. See, I 501 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: can't go. I cannot go four hours, bloody. I load 502 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,199 Speaker 1: my pockets up like I've got two nine vold batteries 503 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: in my pockets. I've got my depth chart, or I 504 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 1: got my flip card just in case there's a roster 505 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 1: number I'm not sure about. Then I carry my notebook, 506 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 1: my pen, I've got the pack, my headphones, so my keys, 507 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: like I've got all that, my phone, I got everything 508 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 1: like jam in my pockets. But I don't have a 509 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: fanny pack for food. So this was not this past Sunday, 510 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: but the Sunday before my daughter did a modeling thing 511 00:23:55,920 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: over at the Hamptonian rooftop and they have what's called 512 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 1: a Sunday Fun Day thing, and it was supposed to 513 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,120 Speaker 1: be supposed to be according to my wife, everybody wore 514 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,200 Speaker 1: their icy whites. Everybody's wearing white. So I'm like, oh great, 515 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 1: So I go find one pair of white pants. I 516 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: find a white shirt. I swept through the one white 517 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: shirt I was gonna wear, so I put on another one, 518 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 1: and I'm like, all right, So my wife and I 519 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 1: are in all whites. We go over there, nobody's in 520 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 1: all whites. Oh no, okay. What I noticed though, was 521 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 1: there's a bunch of twenty somethings and they were wearing 522 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 1: fanny packs. But they were wearing him like Rambo wore 523 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 1: his ammunition. You know, Rambo would wear like the ammunition 524 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 1: like across his chest. Yeah, sideways, like daggling across his chest. 525 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 1: This one dude had had like a fanny pack. So 526 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 1: I'm like, pull it up on zip, put things in, 527 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 1: kind of pull it back. I'm like, that's not half 528 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,159 Speaker 1: bad of an idea. But then you realize this is 529 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 1: just like that. I have a fanny pack that you 530 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 1: just make the strap longer and you can work like 531 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 1: that or a fanny it's essentially the same thing. But 532 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 1: then I thought that about one reason why I never 533 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,640 Speaker 1: will do it. Why you don't want to be fun No, 534 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 1: because you'd rather starve. As I were to walk up 535 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 1: to Bill O'Brien at halftime wearing a fanny pack, I 536 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,159 Speaker 1: would take more ridicule in those thirty seconds than I 537 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,360 Speaker 1: would probably the rest of my life. It would cheer 538 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 1: him up, I think sometimes before that halftime interview, because 539 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 1: sometimes those are rough interviews depending on how the game 540 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 1: is going. So maybe it'd be a nice little conversations 541 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: maybe maybe maybe it would or maybe just maybe just 542 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,920 Speaker 1: put it to the back. Maybe so, but he would there, 543 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,920 Speaker 1: he would I would be done with the interview and 544 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: he would still be ridiculing me, laughing, what are you wearing? 545 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,919 Speaker 1: What is that? What do you have in there? Why that? 546 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 1: I mean, he just would be destroying me. And it 547 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 1: would be years after the fact we would be having 548 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: more Brown football reunions and he would tell everybody about 549 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 1: me wearing a fanny pack on the sideline. So for 550 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 1: that one reason and one reason alone now and I 551 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: might do start stuffing some granola bars in my pockets 552 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 1: or put them because the the our cafeteria is not 553 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 1: far from one of the tunnels, so send as your 554 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,399 Speaker 1: eggs at the tune there, so I might hide it, 555 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: like hide some stuff in there that could get you 556 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: during a break game behind like a camera under a 557 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:11,440 Speaker 1: Duffel bag or something. Yeah, exactly. Girls don't have dresses, 558 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 1: I mean don't have pockets and dresses a lot of 559 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 1: times pants don't have pockets, which still amazing. So I 560 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: don't have an op I can't hold everything in my hand. 561 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: But Drew made fun of me a few years ago. 562 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 1: He took a picture he tag me with a fanny pack, 563 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: and now he sees everybody wearing fanny pack. So I'd 564 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 1: just like to say, I told you so. I think 565 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 1: it's super functional, and I think you know what you 566 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,120 Speaker 1: got to wear the fannie peck' what the fanny pack? Wear? 567 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,199 Speaker 1: Are you? Yeah? Jordan Thomas was wearing one in the 568 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 1: locker room the other day. That's a point rocking it, 569 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: so I really that out there is he wearing it? 570 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: The diagonal way total fanny and it was an Air 571 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 1: Jordan fanny So it's say, oh, now you just need 572 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 1: to find the right one. I think probably, yeah, that's 573 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: probably you. I mean, if you make it, if it's 574 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:53,679 Speaker 1: a Jordan fanny pack, I might be able to get 575 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: away with it. Okay, maybe is there a Texans fanny pack? 576 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 1: There is a Texans clear fanny Peck Johnny so Bill, 577 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 1: though I don't want people to know what I've got 578 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 1: in there. He's a high on protein bars right now, exactly. 579 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 1: All right, Well, you won't have to worry about that 580 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 1: this Thursday because you're gonna be up doing a color 581 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: with Mark. So let's talk about Thursday's game. This is 582 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 1: always an interesting one for me because I'm on the 583 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 1: sideline and it's never the starters, it's always everyone else. 584 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 1: But it's an interesting battle nonetheless, because these are the 585 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 1: guys that we've seen throughout camp, throughout the off season, 586 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 1: and for a lot of guys, it'll be their last 587 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 1: time on the football field, which always, you know, it 588 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: just makes it. I know, people outside of football think, oh, 589 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,239 Speaker 1: it's the fourth preseason game, who cares? But I think 590 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 1: until you actually get to know these players and see 591 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 1: that you know, for a lot of them, it's their 592 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 1: last chance to make this team or any team for 593 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 1: them matter. And some of them, like Bill O'Brien sending 594 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,160 Speaker 1: his Monday press conference, they may get cut and picked 595 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 1: up by another team. So it's an opportunity to put 596 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: some good film out there of some important place. So 597 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:52,920 Speaker 1: no matter what happens, it's important for them to perform well. 598 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 1: So let's talk about what you're gonna be watching in 599 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 1: Thursday's game, because you'll you're certainly gonna get to see 600 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 1: the rest of the depth chart that you haven't seen. 601 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,400 Speaker 1: But who are we mostly imported to seeing out there? Well, 602 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 1: I still think things are not completely settled due to 603 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,479 Speaker 1: some injuries and things on the offensive line, and I 604 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: think one very important piece of the offensive line on 605 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:14,679 Speaker 1: Thursday night, I would imagine we're going to see him 606 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:18,439 Speaker 1: for a while. As Martinez, ranking and third rounder in 607 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen, came to Houston and then in that first 608 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:25,679 Speaker 1: rookie mini camp, he ended up getting injured, and I 609 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 1: don't know what that injury was. Obviously, as Bill O'Brien 610 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 1: has pointed out many times, you don't have to put 611 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 1: an injury and port out during rookie mini caamp or 612 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: OTAs or even training camp. So I don't know ultimately 613 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: what it was that set him back, but he didn't 614 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 1: get back until the third week of the preseason. In fact, 615 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 1: we got we got back here and had scrimmages against 616 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 1: the nine Ers. He's not participating those. The following week, 617 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 1: who went to last the ram was against the Rams, 618 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 1: and I remember the first day or two he did 619 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 1: not participate in practice, and I think it was the 620 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 1: first day in past was that game against the Rams, 621 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 1: and he got thrown in there because there somebody got 622 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 1: dinged up and he had to go in the game. 623 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 1: And so he goes in the game without having done 624 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: anything since his Bowl game, which was against Louisville that 625 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:13,719 Speaker 1: he and Jordan Thomas played it. That's the last time 626 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:15,719 Speaker 1: he hadn't hit anybody in shoulder pads. And he goes 627 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: out there and throws a good block for a touchdown 628 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 1: run by out for Blue and felt like, Okay, maybe 629 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 1: Martin's Rankins got something. Then plays in the fourth preseason 630 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: game and then Sean Trolle gets hurt in that first 631 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 1: game against the Patriots, and Rankins gotta go in like whoa, 632 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 1: So he got thrown in the fire. And I thought 633 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 1: there were some moments for him that were rough last year, 634 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: but then there were some good moments. I thought when 635 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: he played had to play guard against the Philadelphia Eagles, 636 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: he held his own against Fletcher Cox. But in this 637 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 1: training camp he seemingly has been kind of lost behind 638 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 1: the two rookies Titus and Max a guard and then 639 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: Greg mans uh Senel Calmette has actually had a pretty 640 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: good camp, I think. And he played center extensively the 641 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 1: other night, and I didn't I didn't think he did 642 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 1: a poor job at it. I he did a pretty 643 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 1: decent job with thought. His snaps were pretty good, and 644 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 1: I think that just shows, hey, Sinil might not be 645 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: a bad option at center if you have to go 646 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 1: there due to injury, your things. But Martinez ranking is 647 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 1: a guy that's that's pretty intriguing because he's right there 648 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: on the cusp of is he gonna make it? Is 649 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 1: he not? He can play a lot of positions on 650 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 1: the line, so that you think that gives him some opportunity, 651 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: but remains to be seen. He's got to have a 652 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: stellar ball game to remind everybody, Yeah, this is why 653 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 1: you drafted me in the third round and eighteen. I 654 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 1: think we were all really looking forward to Martinez ranking 655 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 1: making the position switch from tackle to guard, that he 656 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: looked more comfortable at guard. But you're right, he's he's 657 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: in this weird sandwich position between the veterans that are 658 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 1: guards and in the rookies that it need playing time, 659 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 1: and obviously they're getting starts or getting reps at guard 660 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 1: as well, So you know, what where does he end 661 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 1: up fitting in it? I know that's the that's the thing, 662 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 1: and I think I think this game because the first 663 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 1: day the rookies have done, even though Titus is out 664 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: and Titus is expected to be back, Sharping's done a 665 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 1: pretty good job there at the right guard spot, and 666 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: you think Titus is going to probably probably secure that 667 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: spot as well. But it's yeah, if not, then you've 668 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: got snail. And then you've got Zach Fulton, who may 669 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: miss some time now. And that's where it kind of 670 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 1: gets a little tricky. You know, Greg Matts made it 671 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 1: back to practice on Monday, and you'd like to think, okay, well, 672 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 1: all right, back, he got Mant's back, he got Titus back, 673 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 1: he got Matt Kalil back. That helps, But then Zach 674 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 1: Fulton goes out with the toe injury, and who knows 675 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 1: how long that that could be. I know online on 676 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: the Twitter, somebody had tweeted me was Aaron Wilson had tweeted, Oh, 677 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 1: it's turf toe, it's not that's not considered that serious, 678 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 1: which which as soon as I saw that, if to 679 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: ask any athlete that's had turf toe, because Dayne Brown 680 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 1: had it several years ago, it's painful and it kind 681 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: of keeps coming back. It's one of those like kind 682 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 1: of like a soft tissue injury. Was it never quite 683 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 1: goes away. Cecil Short's actually tweeted about it, and he's 684 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 1: dealt with, you know, injuries over the course of his career. 685 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: He said that was probably one of the most painful 686 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: ones he's gone through. Now, I don't I think there's 687 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: degrees of severity. Obviously there's no doubt. I don't know 688 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 1: what Zach Fulton is going through, but you would expect 689 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 1: that he might miss some time and they're going to 690 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: be very careful with him. And that ends up being 691 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 1: tricky because this is where you got to play the 692 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: ir game. If you will, and what I mean by 693 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 1: that is if you if you keep Zach on the roster. 694 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: But then that's this is going to be an injury 695 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 1: that keeps him out four or five, six weeks, Like, 696 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 1: might as well put him on IR he can't come back. 697 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 1: I think it's for eight weeks, but that's gonna free 698 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 1: up a roster spot at that point for you know, 699 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: if he goes to IR. So I don't know. I 700 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: think it's I think too put on well, I know, 701 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 1: but if you're gonna that's where you have to that's 702 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 1: where you have to balance it out. You know, they 703 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 1: did that with Area in twenty fifteen, Like they knew 704 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 1: they could get airy and back. They knew he wasn't 705 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 1: ready for week one, but they knew they could get 706 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 1: him back by weeks three or week three or four, 707 00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 1: and they got him back for week four. But you 708 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 1: miss three weeks where you're carrying a guy where you 709 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 1: know he's not going to be able to participate. So 710 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 1: are you carrying Zach Fulton? And I'm not? I mean 711 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 1: maybe maybe Zach could be back in a couple of weeks. 712 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: I don't know now, right, he's got two weeks now, 713 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: but how much longer is it gonna be? Now? Who 714 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 1: that that's the thing. Who knows if this is one 715 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 1: that's gonna That's what I'm saying, if it's gonna take 716 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 1: if it's gonna be a five six week injury, can 717 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,719 Speaker 1: you afford to hold up a roster spot for somebody 718 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: that you know you're just getting four weeks completely out 719 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 1: the door, four games, You're just you're not gonna have him, 720 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 1: So do you put him on IR and then keep 721 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 1: Martinez ranking? Those are just a lot of questions that 722 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 1: you have when you're dealing with injury like that, And 723 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: that was kind of my concern about some of the 724 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 1: other offensive linement, like how long were those injuries going 725 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 1: to hold them back? Because if those injuries are gonna 726 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:46,000 Speaker 1: be five six week injuries, there's a difference between eight 727 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 1: weeks of IR and a five six week injury. There's 728 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. But do you want to take 729 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 1: up that roster spot for five or six weeks and 730 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 1: you know, versus the two weeks difference between when you 731 00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 1: think he'll be healthy from the injury and bringing it 732 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 1: being able to bring him back off IR. So just 733 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 1: decisions that you have to make based on where a 734 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 1: guy is with his injuries right now and what can 735 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 1: help in those decisions is as tough as this is 736 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 1: to say, but if there's a guy playing really, really, 737 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 1: really really well at that position, then you can afford 738 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 1: to say, look, we're gonna put we're gonna put you 739 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,440 Speaker 1: on R because and they're gonna say this, but we're 740 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 1: gonna put you on IR because you know what, this 741 00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 1: guy's playing really really well right now. We can use 742 00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:33,399 Speaker 1: him right now in the Russian. Now you might not start, 743 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,279 Speaker 1: but he's gonna be a key reserved. He's playing very 744 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 1: very well, so we can afford that when he had 745 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 1: a situation like Arian, you didn't have anybody like Arian 746 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:45,399 Speaker 1: at all, So it was probably smart at that point 747 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: to keep him because you felt like you were gonna 748 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:48,799 Speaker 1: get him by week four, and you got him by 749 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 1: week four, so you missed three games with him. But 750 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:54,319 Speaker 1: that's Those are all the things you have to take 751 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 1: into consideration this weekend, after this game, and Martinez can 752 00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: make the decision very difficult for this staff by playing 753 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 1: extremely well against this Rams team on Thursday night, And 754 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 1: that's kind of what I hope that he does, as 755 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:07,880 Speaker 1: he puts some pressure on them to say, hey, I 756 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:09,719 Speaker 1: am the guy that you drafted the third round. I 757 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 1: can be a player for this offensive line. I need 758 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 1: a shot, I need opportunity. Give me that and Thursday 759 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 1: night he'll have it. Can we read anything into along 760 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: with offensive line? I think everyone's gonna be watching the 761 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:22,240 Speaker 1: running back battles, obviously with Lamar Miller going on there. 762 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 1: Can we read anything into who starts the game or 763 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,359 Speaker 1: who gets the most reps or who plays the long 764 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:30,799 Speaker 1: Thursday it seems like it's yeah, it's it seems like 765 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 1: every week it's been a little bit different who's getting 766 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 1: a majority of the reps. And obviously Lamar Miller started 767 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: last week, but that was that was his first game 768 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 1: in the preseason. So we saw a little bit of 769 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:43,200 Speaker 1: Taiwan Jones start. We've seen a lot of Jamaria Crockett. 770 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,439 Speaker 1: We saw a Buddy Howl a lot in the second 771 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: half two games ago. So what can we make of 772 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:50,840 Speaker 1: what we've seen so far of the running backs in preseason? 773 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,600 Speaker 1: In you know, the game Thursday night. I think what 774 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 1: will be more interesting Thursday Night are the guys that 775 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 1: don't play because a running back in particular, and by 776 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,319 Speaker 1: don't play, I mean the guys that they don't even 777 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:06,920 Speaker 1: dress out or that you're standing on the side of 778 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:09,880 Speaker 1: other than maybe Duke John, is there a guy that 779 00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:13,560 Speaker 1: they would not dress out. That's that's what's interesting. That's 780 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 1: the interesting point, because do you feel like, if you 781 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:19,720 Speaker 1: feel like one of those guys is your bona fide 782 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:24,799 Speaker 1: number two and he's clearly the number two versus everybody else, 783 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 1: then you don't play him, you know what I mean, 784 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:29,400 Speaker 1: You don't even you don't even take a chance if 785 00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 1: you feel like that guy's the absolute number two. So 786 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 1: for example, if we get to the game and you 787 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 1: know Duke's not going to play, and then you look 788 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:39,399 Speaker 1: down there and all of a sudden, one of those 789 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 1: running backs is just wearing a jersey and a ball cap, 790 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,799 Speaker 1: You're like, whoa, Okay, he's got it locked up. That 791 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 1: guy might have the number two position completely in hand, 792 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 1: and that's at least the way they see it, and 793 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,279 Speaker 1: they don't want to take a chance. So that to 794 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 1: me ends up being the more curious part, like who 795 00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,359 Speaker 1: ends up not playing and by not playing, I mean 796 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,359 Speaker 1: in a jersey and a ball cap, because that's kind 797 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 1: of what Thursday turns into. There's nothing he can do 798 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:09,839 Speaker 1: to jeopardize his spot on the team, right right, And 799 00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 1: that's that's the guy as a number two. Now if 800 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 1: I'm if I'm playing Thursday night, though, I look at 801 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:16,840 Speaker 1: it and say, I'm gonna make this final impression on 802 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,160 Speaker 1: these coaches. And you know, for a guy like Buddy 803 00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 1: Howell to say, hey, give me another fifteen carries, I'll 804 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,920 Speaker 1: show you what I can do and I'll lock up 805 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 1: one of these spots. So it this game has such 806 00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 1: different meaning for everybody in the building. I mean, in 807 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 1: all honesty, I mean, if you think about it, you know, 808 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 1: instead of being a sideline, I'm in the booth. You know. 809 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 1: The coaching staff is split in some sense, like there's 810 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 1: some coaches that won't even focus on the Rams this week. 811 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,439 Speaker 1: They're already thinking about the Saints. Then there are some 812 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:47,800 Speaker 1: that are gonna call plays. I know this happened a 813 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:51,760 Speaker 1: few years ago where Bill O'Brien called the game game four, 814 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 1: and I remember talking to George Gotzie and I said, Goose, 815 00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 1: what what are you? What are you doing to night? Nothing. 816 00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just making sure we're in the right 817 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,719 Speaker 1: personnel group. He's like Bills calling it. I'm focused on 818 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:06,279 Speaker 1: the Bears or whoever was the next game? The first game, 819 00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:09,760 Speaker 1: and so everybody has, you know, their players like played 820 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 1: for their football lives. There are some that are playing 821 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 1: for a spot on the fifty three. There are some 822 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:16,880 Speaker 1: that are trying they're on a fifty three, that are 823 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 1: looking to kind of negotiate more playing time. There are 824 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 1: some that are saying, hey, look I can be a contributor. 825 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:26,280 Speaker 1: And special teams they're all everybody's and some guys are saying, 826 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: I'm putting stuff on tape for thirty one other teams 827 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:33,800 Speaker 1: to watch to see whether So everybody in the building 828 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 1: has sort of a different mindset for this game, and 829 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 1: it makes it really intriguing, makes it sort of frustrating, 830 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 1: makes it kind of fun. Kind of all these emotions 831 00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:46,839 Speaker 1: kind of wrapped in one that when it's all over, 832 00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 1: you look back and go, you know a lot of 833 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 1: players going did I do enough? What? What did I 834 00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:53,879 Speaker 1: What did I do? Man? I had a really good game? 835 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:56,799 Speaker 1: Is it enough? And you just the weekend I can 836 00:38:56,880 --> 00:39:00,319 Speaker 1: imagine for players is just so so difficult. But for 837 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,799 Speaker 1: the guys that have locked up positions Joe for they 838 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,760 Speaker 1: gat for the Hopkinses and the Watsons and the Watts 839 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 1: and those players, they're just hey, let's get through this night, 840 00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:11,279 Speaker 1: let's cheer on our teammates, Let's try and help our 841 00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:12,879 Speaker 1: young guys as much as we can, and then let's 842 00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:16,319 Speaker 1: get ready for September night. But for some of these guys, man, 843 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 1: this is it. This is the last time. And I 844 00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 1: say that every year that I'm doing the broadcast with Mark, 845 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 1: It's the last time, and it really is. Sometimes it's 846 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 1: the last time. These guys are putting pads on forever. Yeah, 847 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:27,399 Speaker 1: it's it's fun to be on the sideline for this game, 848 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 1: just just to see the veterans really chatting on these 849 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 1: younger guys because they've really bonded throughout camp. They want 850 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:33,880 Speaker 1: to see everybody make the team. Obviously, everybody's not going 851 00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:35,760 Speaker 1: to make the team, and I imagine it's a weird 852 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 1: feeling come Friday and Saturday when guys are in the 853 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:40,360 Speaker 1: locker room and they're getting cut and these are the 854 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,719 Speaker 1: guys that they've battled with throughout camp. Let me ask 855 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:44,600 Speaker 1: you one more thing about the secondary, because we've got 856 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:46,400 Speaker 1: a number of new players in the secondary and the 857 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:49,880 Speaker 1: number returning veterans in the secondary. Are there any veterans 858 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 1: that you feel like this might also be their last 859 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: shot with the Texans. I don't know that things are 860 00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:01,360 Speaker 1: completely clear in the secondary. Um. I feel like the 861 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 1: safety position is probably clear than the corner position because 862 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 1: you've got you've got the slot corner position. You've got 863 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 1: to try and figure out. And I'm not totally sure 864 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:18,360 Speaker 1: about that position right now, whether it's Aaron Colevin Calhoun. 865 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:21,439 Speaker 1: That's exactly what I was referring to, because I think 866 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,920 Speaker 1: we've seen a number of guys well, and here's the 867 00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:25,680 Speaker 1: other thing that we have to here's the other thing, 868 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:27,839 Speaker 1: and this this is what I've said this a lot 869 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:30,440 Speaker 1: of times. Deep I think this sometimes comes. This happens 870 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:33,439 Speaker 1: with a fifty three man roster discussion. People start, well, 871 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 1: is it de Maria Crockett or Cron Higden? And I'm like, 872 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,680 Speaker 1: you can't look at it like that, because you got 873 00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:42,560 Speaker 1: to think about is it de Higden or Savior Crawford, 874 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 1: And you got to start looking at how how they 875 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:48,560 Speaker 1: cross positions. And so you know, when I when I say, 876 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:52,320 Speaker 1: when I say Aaron Colvin, you know versus Brian Body Calhoun, 877 00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:54,239 Speaker 1: it would make sense because those are the two guys 878 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 1: that have been at slot corner. But you got to 879 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:58,880 Speaker 1: throw Lonnie Johnson to the mix. If Lonnie Johnson is 880 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 1: that much better than all these other corners, then you 881 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 1: know Lonnie has to be out there in nicols, so 882 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 1: maybe a Nickel. What it turns into is Lonnie goes 883 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:07,880 Speaker 1: outside and then Robie or j Joe goes inside, and 884 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:09,759 Speaker 1: so those are the three that play, and then you 885 00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:13,319 Speaker 1: don't have a quote unquote true slot corner, you know, 886 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:17,239 Speaker 1: so that becomes part of discussion two. Is that what 887 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:20,399 Speaker 1: you're gonna do with Nickel or are one of those 888 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:24,399 Speaker 1: two guys gonna end up starring at that spot. So 889 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 1: there's a lot of questions in the secondary, but I 890 00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:29,400 Speaker 1: do think that some of them will be answered Thursday night, 891 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:31,040 Speaker 1: and then some of them will be like, well, we'll 892 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:35,160 Speaker 1: see September ninth.
