1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:02,719
Speaker 1: To be able to take it to that next level.

2
00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:06,320
Speaker 1: That's what I'm excited about. Bill's rick pass you got

3
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:12,720
Speaker 1: and Grenard with the sack back at the twenty five

4
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:17,920
Speaker 1: yard line touchdown. You stand, rock and roll Treylon Smith's

5
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:22,520
Speaker 1: coast to coast. There is no off season for your

6
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 1: Houston Texans. Game day is every day. No, it's Texans

00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 1: all excess. Two weeks at one hour from this moment,

8
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 1: the NFL Draft will commence twenty twenty two version, with

9
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,840
Speaker 1: the Texans picking third and thirteenth to start it off.

10
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 1: Mark Vandermer with you tonight, along with John Harris and

11
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 1: the General John McClean joining us as usual on a Thursday.

00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,920
Speaker 1: And I great to visit with you guys as always.

13
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 1: All right, General, let's start with you pick number three. Look,

14
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 1: you can change this, I know you might, but who

15
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 1: do you have the texts? It's taking right now? Just

16
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 1: give me your pick right now. Two weeks to go.

17
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: Let's go, Iki Kuana. I'd like Sam get a Quanta

18
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: to play as a rookie at guard with Titus Howard

19
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: and and uh Larrmy Dunsel at tackle, and then with

20
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 1: a thirteenth pick. I would like to see them get

21
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:20,199
Speaker 1: Florida State defensive and Jermaine Johnson plugging in to play

22
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 1: opposite Jonathan Grenard. You have your four defensive lineman, sit general, General,

23
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: and in the lab this week featuring Trudordy myself shameless

24
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 1: plug us Texas dot Com. But check out all our

25
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,399
Speaker 1: podcast page there. Do you would ask me a question?

26
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: I thought it was pretty interesting. Got two picks right

27
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 1: now as it sits in the first round. How would

28
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: you rank these they go offense, offense, defense, defense or

29
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: mix offense and defense with three and thirteen? How would

30
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 1: you rank what potentially they would do with those two picks?

31
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: Mexico because they have such big needs on both sides

32
00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: of the ball, and it's such good prospects for the

33
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 1: need positions. Considering how bad the running game is, I

34
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 1: think one of those positions goes to the offensive line.

35
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 1: And then considering I'm desperate they are and proved the

36
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 1: pass rush because in Lovey Smith's system, they like to

37
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 1: rely heavily on those four defensive linemen to rush the quarterback,

38
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of good edge rushers, So I

39
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: think that I feel strongly they're going to fortify the

40
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 1: offensive defensive line. Now if they turn around and take

41
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: Sauce Gardener or corner Kyle Hamilton's safety. They have huge

42
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: needs there as well. But I want everything starts up front.

43
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: And I remember when the Oilers were really bad in

44
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: the eighties and three years in a row, they took

45
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:50,079
Speaker 1: offensive lineman in the first round. Mike Munchak didn't turn

46
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,960
Speaker 1: out too bad, Bruce Matthews didn't turn out to bed

47
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 1: Dean Stein cooler, and then they went to work on

48
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 1: the defensive line with Raye Childress, then skill positions with

49
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: a with Jeffrey. Those guys were all first round picks,

50
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,639
Speaker 1: and the idea at the time was to build a

51
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: running game around Earl Campbell, and they were able to

52
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: do that in eighty three with mun Jack and Matthews,

53
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: and then Earl got hurt. Was never the same, but

54
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 1: I liked it because they knew they wanted to balance

55
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 1: on offense, and they wanted to kind of offense could

56
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: have powerful running game to help keep the defense fresh.

57
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 1: And I liked that philosophy, and the ultimately ended up

58
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:32,239
Speaker 1: with seven consecutive playoff appearances. John McClain joining US on

59
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 1: Texans All Access General. The team got back to it

60
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: this week with offseason conditioning getting underway, and for me,

61
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: this feels like the start of it all in a way,

62
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 1: because they'll go through this program until mid June with

63
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: the mandatory minicamp, and then we have the big break

64
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 1: in the training camp. And I know the big break

65
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 1: is like it's the desert, as I've called it from

66
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: time to time. But it just feels like the year

67
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: is really getting started here as far as player participation,

68
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 1: and we see a lot of Davis Mills in the

69
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: picks said the video, among others. But give me a

70
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: scenario here. Give me not your best case scenario, because

71
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: I know what my best case scenario is, but give

72
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 1: me a good scenario, something I feel good about the

73
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: way it might play out in twenty twenty two, the

74
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: way they'd like to see a play out. So you

75
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: feel good about Mills and company going forward into twenty

76
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 1: twenty three. What are you expecting here or what are

77
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 1: you hoping for? Not pie in the sky, not pipe dream,

78
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 1: but just solid expectation here. No Neckssary and Lovey Smith

79
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,599
Speaker 1: had been around a long time. You know they're not

80
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: gonna have false expectations. They know this is the second

81
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 1: year of what it termed a massive rebuild. So I

82
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: would think you would want to see Davis Mills improve

83
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: on what he showed over the last five games when

84
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: he was the best rookie quarterback in the NFL, better

85
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: than Mac Jones. I wrote a column about that in

86
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: the Chronicle, going over each quarterback what they did down

87
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: the stretch, and it was clear that Mills was the best,

88
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 1: and he didn't have a top rated a game, and

89
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: he didn't have a top rated defense like mac Jones

90
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 1: did to help him. So I think you want to

91
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 1: continue to see him improve his touchdown to interception ratio.

92
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 1: But even that's you know, deceiving, because he had four

93
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: of those ten in Buffalo when they got killed and

94
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: he wasn't ready to play and the weather was horrible,

95
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: and so but I still think, you know, they'd like

96
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 1: to see him in the twenties with touchdown passes and

97
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 1: twice as many touchdown passes interceptions, and if he could

98
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 1: do three times, that would be tremendous. And they want

99
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: to see them improve the running game that is worst

100
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 1: in the league last year at thirty first the year before,

101
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 1: and I believe they will, and in Mills's development is

102
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 1: the most important thing that's happening on his team. And

103
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 1: I think Lovey Smith feels more comfortable with his players

104
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: on defense, what he can call, who can do what.

105
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: And so I look for them next season and we

106
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: don't even know what the draft is, and we don't

107
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: know what are the free agents they're going to sign.

108
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: But I would think if they could go from four

109
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 1: to six or seven wins, that would be big. And

110
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 1: last year they lose by three of the Patriots. Mills

111
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: plays great, they lose by three of the Titans. At

112
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,719
Speaker 1: the end, Mills plays great. They lost a one score

113
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 1: game at Miami, And so I could see this team

114
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 1: winning six or seven. And I said to this song

115
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 1: now Sports Radios six to ten last Friday, that I

116
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 1: could see them competing for a wild card in two

117
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: twenty three, and Clint Sturner run hugely, almost swallowed their microphones,

118
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,160
Speaker 1: and I said, because to compete for a wild card birth.

119
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,919
Speaker 1: If you win nine games, you can compete for wildcard birth.

120
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 1: And this time next year, they got a lot of

121
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:43,279
Speaker 1: draft choices again, and I could see the SEIO making

122
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,479
Speaker 1: deals to have more picks next year, and then next

123
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: year making sure in two twenty four he's got some extras,

124
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 1: and then also a nick brought up when he talked

125
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: to the media, he's gonna have more than one hundred

126
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: million in salary cap running now. They're not going to

127
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 1: go crazy. That's not his style and do like Jacksonville

128
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,479
Speaker 1: and I think, but they will sign players who deserve

129
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: it too, extensions And that's a great message to Sin.

130
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: You be the player we think you can be. You

131
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 1: you help us establish the culture, which his attitude. That's

132
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: what a culture is, its attitude. And you help us

133
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: do that, and you play well, we will pay you

134
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 1: and then they'll go out. I think this time next

135
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 1: year we'll be talking about one or two free agents

136
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: prominent that they paid a lot of money for. And

137
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: with the draft choices and with free agency, and with

138
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: the improvement of Mills the way Pat Hamilton and love

139
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: him Smith and nckcessary Old think he's capable of. I

140
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 1: think I could see the team going from four last

141
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: season to six or seven this season and eight or

142
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: nine a year after that, which would give people so

143
00:07:54,880 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 1: much hope. Although general Texas are three and thirteen, and

144
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 1: you need a trade partner obviously, and sometimes those are

145
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 1: hard to find. Sometimes, as I used to at high

146
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 1: school dances. I used to get the heisman from the

147
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: fellow co eds that I asked of dances at dances.

148
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: It could happen to the Texans, but we know Nick

149
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: Kisserio has shown trade up, trade down. He's done a

150
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: lot of that in the twenty twenty one draft. Now

151
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: he's got more assets to do it in this twenty

152
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: twenty two draft. He's sitting with three and thirteen. I

153
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 1: did a mock draft the other day. I traded down

154
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 1: both times, three to nine and thirteen to seventeen. So

155
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,440
Speaker 1: a similar question to ask you before a draft at

156
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: three and thirteen B draft at three but not at

157
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: thirteen to trade down see trade down out of three,

158
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: but then draft at thirteen? Which scenario do you think

159
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: makes the most sense? On night one? I think that

160
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: there'd be a better chance to trade down from three

161
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: if you could get Carolina Enters in a quarterback like

162
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: Malik Willis. You know, they're talking about Detroit taking him

163
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,440
Speaker 1: in the second pick, and I'm thinking, my god, what's

164
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:12,559
Speaker 1: the guy done to make people think that he's worth

165
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: a high pick like that? Because it's only been in

166
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 1: shorts and T shirts and everybody was ooing and eyeing

167
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 1: at the combine and his pro day, and that's great,

168
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 1: But I think a lot of the people are smart

169
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: enough to know you go back and watch the tape

170
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,599
Speaker 1: and he's a year away, and that's fine. But ideally,

171
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: a team like Carolina wants a third pick, and you

172
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,079
Speaker 1: could go there and you could still get one of

173
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 1: the two best offensive linement. You could still get maybe

174
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: Sauce Gardner or Kyle Hamilton. And with thirteen you could

175
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,319
Speaker 1: still get Jermaine Johnson. Now a lot of people think

176
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 1: they're going to get Cavon Tivode. Maybe they will, but

177
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,319
Speaker 1: it's a fact that he does take off plays and

178
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 1: if you get him at thirteen, that's great value. But

179
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 1: I wouldn't take a guy that asks questions about his

180
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 1: motor with the third pick. But I mean, I think

181
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 1: we all believe Sarrio will trade one of those picks,

182
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 1: maybe both. But I'll say this, they don't want too

183
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,559
Speaker 1: many rookies on this team, so I think deals. But

184
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 1: the end of the draft, he will have made deals

185
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: for next year tea, because they already got out to

186
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 1: what ten or eleven next year as well, and you

187
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 1: can't have you don't want to go into training camp

188
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 1: with you know, twelve or thirteen draft choices, plus they'll

189
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: keep it. They'll sign a couple of undrafted rookies as

190
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 1: way too many rookies, but I do think if there's

191
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 1: a chance of one of it would be three general.

192
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 1: The list of attendees for the draft in Vegas looks

193
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:46,719
Speaker 1: pretty good to me. I mean, they got a lot

194
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 1: of top prospects there. It looks like they're filling out

195
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 1: the field pretty well. Your thoughts on the way they're

196
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 1: conducting and taking it on the road, particularly this year

197
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,559
Speaker 1: in Las Vegas, And I'm wondering if they had the

198
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: draft in Des Moines, would they get this kind of turnout.

199
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: They're never gonna have the draft at De Mooines, so

200
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: we don't have to worry about it. What do you think? Well,

201
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 1: the last time I went with jadeveon Clowney, and that

202
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 1: was in New York. I went a bunch of years

203
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,080
Speaker 1: in New York, and then it got to a point

204
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 1: where New York didn't care that the draft was there anymore.

205
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: And it was at Radio City Music Hall and it

206
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: was fun to be there. And when it used to

207
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: be at Madison's Court Garden and it was the fans

208
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,079
Speaker 1: were there from the Giants and the Jets and the Eagles,

209
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: and they made it so much noise, and then you

210
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 1: had the players families up there. It was exciting because

211
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: it was compact. Now it's a show. It's been a

212
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 1: show like Vegas before it got to Vegas, and I

213
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: can't wait to see what they do. They're talking about

214
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 1: bringing them out on boats in the fountain at the Bellagio.

215
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 1: I believe that. Can you imagine bringing edvan Neil six

216
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: seven to three fifty or the guy from Minnesota, what

217
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 1: is it, Philale? Is that his name six eight three

218
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: eighty putting them on a boat in a pond like that.

219
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: So the fact is we don't really know what they're doing.

220
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 1: But it's been a tremendous show. I still love the

221
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 1: one from the Pandemic where everybody did at home. That

222
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: was an all time great. The NFL did a fantastic job.

223
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 1: And as someone who has been to Las Vegas quite

224
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 1: a bit, how in the world Las Vegas Boulevard was

225
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,959
Speaker 1: runched down the middle of the strip and his bumper

226
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: to bumper all the time. If they block that off,

227
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: where will all that traffic go? But it's going to

228
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,679
Speaker 1: be so exciting. I can't wait to see it. It's

229
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 1: so much more fun when you have two number one

230
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 1: picks and actually have a second round pick, as opposed

231
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 1: to the last two years and especially last year when

232
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 1: they didn't pick until the third round. And one reason

233
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: I'm excited about the Texans draft, Nick ca Sarrio on

234
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 1: his five picks that he ended up with after making

235
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 1: a lot of deals. Each of those it showed promise

236
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 1: at one time or another. Now, I love may pan

237
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 1: out two or three of them, may not, but they

238
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 1: showed promise that should have people fired up about Sarreo's

239
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 1: second draft, the first time he's had a third picks

240
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 1: in the first and second round. One of my favorite

241
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: segments to do with the voice of the Texans, Mark Vandermuir.

242
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 1: It's called gut Reaction, John McClain and Mark Vandemir. John,

243
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,719
Speaker 1: you go first. Mark, you're gonna get a second to

244
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 1: think about this. General. I'm gonna read you a tweet

245
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: from Tom Pella sorrow. I want your gut reaction, your

246
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,199
Speaker 1: thoughts to this, and then Mark, I want you to

247
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,839
Speaker 1: piggyback off of this. Here's the tweet. The Cardinals have

248
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,679
Speaker 1: yet to make a contract offer to Pro Bowl quarterback

249
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,439
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray, whose agent Eric Burkhardt informed the team weeks

250
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:47,680
Speaker 1: ago he was pulling his opening proposal off the table,

251
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 1: per sources, other teams are monitoring closely. Arizona insists Murray

252
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:57,079
Speaker 1: won't be traded. General, give me your gut reaction. Mark,

253
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,959
Speaker 1: you're on deck with your gut reaction. Who cares he

254
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 1: hadn't done Scott to get a new to get a

255
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 1: new contract. They should bring in Baker Mayfield and see

256
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: what the reaction is for Kyler Murray. Ooh, uh, my

257
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 1: gut y go ahead. I was just gonna say, Kingsbury

258
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 1: at him in Texas Tank and you can get Baker

259
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 1: may feel real cheap right now? But Kyler Murray, would

260
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 1: you give him forty million a year based on what

261
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 1: he's done? No? Way? Yeah, I mean the market has

262
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: been set, guys, and it is very high now. Murray,

263
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 1: they've had some good moments with him, but it's been inconsistent,

264
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: kind of like Baker in a different way. I get it.

265
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 1: But Baker's put up an eleven and five in twenty twenty,

266
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 1: went healthy. You know, it's a good question. You know,

267
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 1: who would you rather invested at this point, and it

268
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: might be pick your poison because neither guy has really

269
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 1: played up to the ultimate potential of where they were picked.

270
00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 1: My gut reaction is rout roll Trump, Paradise Murray. It's

271
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,040
Speaker 1: gonna be gone from the desert at some point, probably

272
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 1: not this year, but probably afterwards. I think the one

273
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: thing that stood out to me in that tweet, guys

274
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 1: was the fact that it was noted that Eric Burkhardt

275
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: had pulled the original offer. Okay, like he then put

276
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 1: an off route there, then looked and saw all these

277
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: other quarterbacks getting paid and went no, no, no, we're

278
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 1: gonna get more. I mean, the last time we saw

279
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray in a football game, he had a quarterback

280
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 1: rating of eight. Yeah, and he was imploading against the

281
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 1: Rams in a playoff game. And granted, the offensive line

282
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 1: was awful that day and had been offul in front

283
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 1: of him, and there was no DeAndre Hopkins, so I understand,

284
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 1: but it feels like we make a lot of excuses

285
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,880
Speaker 1: for Kyler Murray out in Arizona and he really hasn't

286
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: proven anything where you go, Yep, he is that guy

287
00:15:53,960 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 1: for us, I'll tell you. Cliff Kingsbury Cliff kings Burry

288
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: and Eric Burkhart are best friends or roommates in Texas Tech,

289
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 1: and Kingsbury's represented by Burkhart, So that's got to be

290
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 1: awkward when your best friend benefits or could Phil and

291
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: I know they would try to separate it. But still

292
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 1: it's an interesting din in it, absolutely, And as far

293
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 1: as the agent offering the Cardinals and them saying nothing

294
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: about it virtually that we know about anyway, reminds me

295
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: of what I offered to be Cindy Crawford's boyfriend back

296
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: in the day, and there were crickets on the other end.

297
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 1: Of course, all right, you came in second, I heard, yeah,

298
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 1: of course to Richard Gear was it all right? Baker

299
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 1: Mayfield general a lot of talk today. I heard the

300
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 1: Afternoon Show talking about this. With the signing of Gino

301
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 1: Smith in Seattle, how does that affect Baker in Seattle?

302
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 1: I think Seattle still in play for a quarterback, and

303
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 1: I think Clint said as much. Obviously, if you have

304
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 1: Drew Locke in Gino Smith, you can't think you're done.

305
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: Oh we're good to go. It worked so well with

306
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 1: Bridgewater and Drew Locke in Denver. Gino Smith and Drew

307
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 1: lock that's a winning combination. No, they're in the market

308
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 1: for a quarterback for sure, But what about Baker? What

309
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 1: happens with him? And what do you think Seattle ultimately

310
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 1: tries to do. Anyway, He's guaranteed eighteen million from the

311
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 1: Browns the Seahawks unless they're going to draft a quarterback

312
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 1: or not rebuilding. And if I may feel, I will

313
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 1: call Pete Carroll say I'll come there. I won't try

314
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 1: to get an extension. Just give me a chance because

315
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 1: he's got Tyler Lockett and dk met Kevi at wide receiver,

316
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 1: Noah f Fan at tight end, and Rashad Penny resigned

317
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 1: it running back average one hundred and thirty two yards

318
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:40,359
Speaker 1: game over his last five games. And that is a

319
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,640
Speaker 1: big time offense. And they may use their first pick

320
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 1: on an offensive tackle, one of the best here, and

321
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 1: they can resign thirty seven year old Wayne Brown. So

322
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,119
Speaker 1: if I may feel that's where I want to go

323
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 1: to prove myself, and I would do anything I could

324
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: to go there. There's a lot of talk that they

325
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 1: may just cut it. Now, if they cut him, they've

326
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,879
Speaker 1: got to worry that he's going to go two hours

327
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:08,120
Speaker 1: away to Pittsburgh, and he's going to go to their

328
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: chief rival, their bitter rival, and beat out Midgell Drubisky,

329
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 1: which shouldn't be too hard, and beat the starting quarterback

330
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,920
Speaker 1: and play the Browns twice a year for years with

331
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:23,159
Speaker 1: a huge chip on his shoulders. So that's why the

332
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 1: Browns want to trade him. They'll pick up a big

333
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 1: portion of his salary if they have to. That's not

334
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 1: any big deal. But I'm saying if Mayfield should try

335
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 1: to orchestrate getting to the Seahawks, John Derek Carr gets

336
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 1: a contract extension from the Raiders, handicap the AFC West

337
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 1: right now? If you can Chiefs, Raiders, Broncos, Chargers, the

338
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,920
Speaker 1: four quarterbacks in that division, Derek Carr, Patrick Mahomes, Justin

339
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 1: Herbert and Russell Wilson, is there a possibility? What do

340
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 1: you what would you put the possibility yet three AC

341
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,400
Speaker 1: West teams make the playoffs, and what would you put

342
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 1: the possibility of two of them make him? How you

343
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 1: look at the FC West right now, with quarterbacks locked

344
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:14,440
Speaker 1: up for a while, all the talents seemingly flying into

345
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,159
Speaker 1: that division, get the Chiefs losing a big piece in

346
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill, how would you handicap the FC West right

347
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 1: now heading into the drift. Quarterbacks make receivers and that's

348
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 1: why the Packers are seven and oh with the averaging

349
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 1: thirty one a game without Davonte Adams. And I think

350
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 1: as long as Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reader there that

351
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,679
Speaker 1: offense and passing, that passing game and that offense are

352
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,400
Speaker 1: going to continue to be tremendous. And Tyreek Hill will

353
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 1: not be the same weapon in Miami, but he'll have

354
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:48,160
Speaker 1: a great contract. And I would put them number one

355
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 1: because Denver has a really good defense and had a

356
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 1: above average running game, but I don't know if they

357
00:19:56,359 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 1: will now. I put Denver second and the Raider third

358
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 1: because they were in the playoffs, and then the Chargers,

359
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 1: you know, they didn't make the playoffs, so they should

360
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 1: start at the bottom. I feel strongly, guys, that the

361
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 1: road to the super Bowl will not go through the

362
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,440
Speaker 1: a FC West because they're gonna beat each other up

363
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,639
Speaker 1: and there's going to be another team, maybe the Titans again,

364
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 1: who knows that's going to be able to play well

365
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:28,159
Speaker 1: in its division and get home field advantage over the Chiefs.

366
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,640
Speaker 1: And it's I can't remember the last time I saw

367
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: a division that was tougher from top to bottom than

368
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 1: the FC West should be. Now, somebody will have a

369
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 1: quarterback go down or something that will affect that division.

370
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 1: But if you're a fan out there, you got to

371
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 1: be excited about it. But you also got to be

372
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,840
Speaker 1: scared to death because of the power and the ballance.

373
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 1: All Right, the thinking fan says that the AFC North, yeah,

374
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,440
Speaker 1: you're knock gonna say they're a better prospect of the

375
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 1: AFC West top to bottom. But this is a brutal division.

376
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 1: Look at the Bengals going ten and seven and what

377
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 1: they did go to the Super Bowl. Steelers had a

378
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,160
Speaker 1: winning record. The year before, they were twelve and four.

379
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: They had a winning record with Roethlisberger barely able to play.

380
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 1: The Browns put up an eleven and five with Baker

381
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 1: Mayfield healthy in twenty twenty. Last year not so much. Obviously,

382
00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 1: eight and nine, and the Ravens were eight and nine

383
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,439
Speaker 1: with Lamar Jackson missing the last four games, and they

384
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 1: lost to the Rams by a point and lost to

385
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,679
Speaker 1: the Steelers by a field goal in the last two games.

386
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,920
Speaker 1: If you have Lamar Jackson, I'm saying that they're getting

387
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 1: over the top. I think the Ravens could win that division.

388
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:43,440
Speaker 1: I think it's a tough division general yours thoughts. First

389
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 1: of all, you've only got one quarterback in that division.

390
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 1: Cincinnati didn't have issues last year. Roethlisberger was hurt. He's gone,

391
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: you know, Mitchell Draubisky doesn't. I don't think conjure any

392
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 1: anybody to make them scared to go play in hines Field,

393
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 1: even though they'll always have a good defense. Sean Watson

394
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,399
Speaker 1: hadn't played for a year. He might get suspended, and

395
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson comes back, he Opie stays healthy. I still

396
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,120
Speaker 1: think if he had an agent, he would have signed

397
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:17,639
Speaker 1: a new contract, made a lot of money. But he

398
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 1: and his mom are the ones making that decision. And

399
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,439
Speaker 1: so a lot of people will say, Okay, Cincinnati again.

400
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: But then it's just hard to pick the Bengals to

401
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,399
Speaker 1: win that division. And you think the Ravens are losing

402
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:36,119
Speaker 1: Jackson and three their top three running backs. John Harball

403
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 1: may have done his all time best coaching job, and

404
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,639
Speaker 1: so it's weird going into that season. The Steelers are

405
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,400
Speaker 1: going to be picked last. When is the last time

406
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:50,480
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers were picked last in their division? Hasn't

407
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 1: been since Ben's been there, so that's going all the

408
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 1: way back to Tommy Maddox days. And I don't even

409
00:22:55,359 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: think it was with Tommy either. So you're going eighties.

410
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: I'm guessing yeah, because they had They had several bad

411
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 1: seasons in the eighties, but at that point, Oilers were bad,

412
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 1: the Browns were better that I can't remember Pittsburgh ever

413
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 1: being picked last. General Colts Titans. Which team has more

414
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:23,600
Speaker 1: pressure going into twenty twenty two after the finish of

415
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one. I think that's a great question, John,

416
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,240
Speaker 1: And I think Jimmy Ursy has put the pressure on

417
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,679
Speaker 1: his team. He's put it on Chris Ballard, He's put

418
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,120
Speaker 1: it on Frank Wright. You know, they won one playoff

419
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 1: game since they've been there. That was being the Texans

420
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 1: at Energy Stadium after the twenty eighteen season, and so

421
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:46,959
Speaker 1: they are under a whole lot of pressure. The Titans

422
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 1: are not. Mike Vrabel got an extension, General manager John

423
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:55,960
Speaker 1: Robinson got an extension. They're gonna have Derrick Henry's healthy again,

424
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 1: and so I think the Titans will be favored in

425
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: some Amazing to me how many people I've seen saying

426
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 1: Indianapolis is a super Bowl contender, and I'm thinking why,

427
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 1: you know, why would they be a Super Bowl contender?

428
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan had a terrible year. Was it him starting

429
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,399
Speaker 1: to go down or was it because he didn't have

430
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:21,160
Speaker 1: any talent around him other than rookie tight end Kyle Pitts.

431
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 1: But I think the Titans are the division favorite until

432
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 1: somebody knocks them off. Job wal More, is that your cat?

433
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 1: Will you watch? Cat? Want you to do a rock

434
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:39,680
Speaker 1: and roll? Rock and roll meow um? I wanted to

435
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:43,119
Speaker 1: be sure it was yeah, an animal? Actually, all shut up,

436
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 1: Let's ask you this. Are you gonna watch USFL football

437
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:52,920
Speaker 1: this weekend? You know every minor league that starts is

438
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 1: going to fail. They always do. And I went to

439
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,880
Speaker 1: a game last year with the Roughnecks because I'm good

440
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 1: buddies with June Jones, and it was fun. They had

441
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 1: about nineteen thousand and those fans were pumped, and I'm

442
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 1: sorry that they didn't get to see it through. I

443
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 1: think that the new USFL is a gimmick having teams, like,

444
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 1: does anybody here care about the Gamblers? Has anybody's seen

445
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: the Gamblers? No, they're all in Girmingham now. The only

446
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: person I know in that organization. Who's even on the

447
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,280
Speaker 1: team as Kevin Summon the head coach, I know Jeff

448
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:30,160
Speaker 1: Fishers at the Michigan team. It's just weird the way

449
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 1: they're going about it, So I don't care. Fox is

450
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:36,280
Speaker 1: behind them. They're destined to fail. The XFL comes back

451
00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 1: next year, it's destined to fail. People who make a

452
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,119
Speaker 1: lot of money don't like losing money. And as I

453
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:46,600
Speaker 1: saw somebody point out to day I was talking about

454
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 1: the Lions of American Football and XFL last year, it's

455
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:53,359
Speaker 1: expensive to have a forty to forty five man roster.

456
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,920
Speaker 1: It costs a lot of money, and people with money

457
00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 1: don't like to lose it. So no, I'm not going

458
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: to worry. I will check the scores, but I'm too

459
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:06,120
Speaker 1: busy getting ready for the draft. I love that people

460
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:07,840
Speaker 1: with a lot of money don't like to lose money.

00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 1: We return to Texans All Access Mark Badamaron John Harris

484
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 1: with you at a disturbing tweet today Johnny from Kyle

485
00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 1: Hamilton draft prospect. I mean it's just I don't know

486
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:56,760
Speaker 1: if it's a deal breaker or not. But this is

487
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:58,680
Speaker 1: going to have a lot of people up at arms.

488
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 1: Kyle Hamilt's in tweeting, Drake is the best artist ever,

489
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,879
Speaker 1: including MJ. That would be Michael Jackson, not Michael Jordan.

490
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 1: And Lebron is the best basketball player ever, including MJ.

491
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: That's Michael Jordan. These are hills I'll never come down. Okay,

492
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,840
Speaker 1: Drake is the best artist ever? All right. My sixteen

493
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:25,359
Speaker 1: year old son, who's the focus group market research firm

494
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 1: of one when it relates to our digital media department,

495
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,920
Speaker 1: does agree that Drake might be the best artist ever,

496
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 1: at least for him. But come on, no, you can't

497
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 1: do this. Look if I would, it's hard to pick

498
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 1: the best ever. It's music, its subjective, and I assume

499
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 1: he means musical artist. I mean, there's a pretty wide

500
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 1: area of artists in general. So let's just go there.

501
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 1: Come on, Drake, stop better than Michael Jackson. You can't

502
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:54,480
Speaker 1: go there. You can't do that, no way, thoughts an't No,

503
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe I didn't have as much. I

504
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 1: didn't have a tough time with that. And I love

505
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 1: I love me, I mean, I love Jackson. Five. I'm

506
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: a yeah, I'll definitely bump down the car. Jackson five,

507
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,280
Speaker 1: Jackson the whole body of work. I know, I know,

508
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:15,440
Speaker 1: but you have to include Jackson five and all that.

509
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 1: You know, But I know it's good. Kyle Hamilton is

510
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:26,720
Speaker 1: twenty years old. Twenty years old. The problem. So we

511
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 1: talk about this all the time. People put out there

512
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 1: was this, this happened last year. Somebody put on a

513
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 1: list I think of the greatest college quarterbacks of all time,

514
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 1: and they were every single quarterback named played from two

515
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 1: thousand to twenty twenty or whatever it was. It's like

516
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 1: twenty second like Doug Flute played college football, Dre played

517
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 1: college football in nineteen eighty nine. Like there are things

518
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 1: that happened. This happens all the time. And then he

519
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 1: says LEBRONO remj No, here's to me. The separator will

520
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 1: always be I think Lebron was a better all round

521
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 1: skilled basketball player Michael Jordan. There is no other competitor

522
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 1: on his level. Bj Armstrong said it in the last dance.

523
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 1: He said it perfectly. He said, Michael Jordan wasn't playing basketball.

524
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 1: He was competing to beat you. So whatever it took

525
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 1: to beat you, he was gonna do it. Needed fifty,

526
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 1: he gave you fifty. If he needed forty rebounds, he

527
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 1: ain't got forty rebounds. If he needed to lock you up,

528
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 1: he'd lock you up. He found the way to beat you,

529
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 1: and he mastered that in Lebron. No, I mean, how

530
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 1: many coaches is Lebron in Lebron's well, in Lebron's defense. Yeah,

531
00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:48,200
Speaker 1: but well, Michael happened to run in or run with

532
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 1: the greatest coach that ever lived after he was done

533
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 1: with Doug Collins. It was also a pretty good coach.

534
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 1: But I'm not gonna hold that against him. But I

535
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 1: will say this, Michael never had to deal with the

536
00:30:56,800 --> 00:31:00,080
Speaker 1: Golden State Warriors or any team of that equivalent in

537
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 1: his era. Never did. No way, you can't sell me

538
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: on it. This is one of the greatest teams I've

539
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,800
Speaker 1: ever seen that Lebron had to deal with, and he

540
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 1: actually beat them once. So I will die on that hill.

541
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 1: But we're not talking basketball right now. Let's play who's better.

542
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 1: Everyone's like, OK, no, this is just getting here. We go.

543
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 1: Who's in my head? You're in? You're in my head

544
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 1: with this? Now, the Bulls didn't have an equivalent. They

545
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: didn't because nobody could nobody had a Jordan. Nobody had Jordan.

546
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 1: The only team that had a Jordan was the one

547
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 1: right here that hadn't Elijah one, and that had they

548
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 1: had the Rockets and Bulls gone mano Amano in ninety

549
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 1: four and ninety five. I think we might look at

550
00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 1: it literally, middle differently, a little differently. What I didn't

551
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 1: work out. Would have loved to see it. It didn't

552
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 1: work out, But you're you're right. I didn't have a

553
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:51,200
Speaker 1: team the Warriors. Look, the Warriors didn't have a team,

554
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 1: like the Bulls didn't have a team, you know what

555
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,000
Speaker 1: I mean? What team did the Warriors? But this is

556
00:31:56,040 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 1: another The Warriors changed the game, though, I believe. Anyway,

557
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 1: let's go, let's go who's better? Come on? All right,

558
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: come on? Where should I start with this? Oh my gosh?

559
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 1: All right, who's better on paper? Heading into the draft?

560
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 1: Heading into the season. Okay, so I'm asking you, without

561
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:18,280
Speaker 1: knowing what's gonna happen in the draft, who's better on paper?

562
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 1: The Texans or the Jags? Mind you before you answer.

563
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 1: Going into last year, people assumed Trevor Lawrence and they

564
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 1: assumed the Jags would be better than the Texans because

565
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 1: they assumed Watson was not gonna play and the rest

566
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 1: of history. But the Texans swept the Jags. In fact,

567
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 1: they beat him up pretty good. So your thoughts on

568
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 1: that topic said it all the time. With Mac Brown,

569
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 1: he was he was mister February. He won February. He

570
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 1: won all the recruiting rankings and all that, and it

571
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 1: took it took getting Vince Young for him to actually

572
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 1: win a championship in January. I don't know if the

573
00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,040
Speaker 1: Jaguars have done that, but they certainly won March. All

574
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 1: the money they had to throw around to bring in

575
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 1: Christian Kirk and the number of players Zay Jones I

576
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 1: think ended up there in Jacksonville. Look on paper, you

577
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 1: would look at it and go, oh, the Jags are

578
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 1: much better. And you know Trevor Lawrence is going to

579
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 1: improve with Doug Peterson. We've heard that before last year.

580
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 1: We heard that, Oh, Urban Meyer, he's got Trevor Lawrence. Man,

581
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,080
Speaker 1: they're gonna they're gonna win six seven games. They're definitely

582
00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 1: better than the Texans. Look, I'm at a point in

583
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 1: this rivalry. If y'all call it that, I'll believe you

584
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 1: want to see it because it's been a sweep every

585
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 1: year since twenty eleven, and the only two that go

586
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 1: for the Jaguars are thirteen and seventeen, So there's something

587
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: about that. The flip side of that is the Colts Jaguars.

588
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 1: For some reason, the Colts can't go down to Duval

589
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 1: County and win. They just can't. No matter how good

590
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 1: the Jags are not, they don't win down there for

591
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 1: some reason. And the Colts, you would say, are marketably

592
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 1: better than the Jaguars in this Robberry. With the Jaguars,

593
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: they just haven't been in the Texans, They've just they

594
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:07,120
Speaker 1: spit all over themselves in the two games they had turnovers.

595
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 1: They have just wild, crazy plays, and quite frankly, the

596
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 1: Texans have played better than them in the last two games,

597
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 1: in particular in twenty twenty one. In doing so, I

598
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:18,440
Speaker 1: do think the Jags will be better this year. But

599
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 1: I think the Texans, with this rookie talent mixed in

600
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 1: with some guys they had last year and love me

601
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:25,799
Speaker 1: Smith taking over his head coach, I think is gonna

602
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,400
Speaker 1: end up being a good thing. I think on paper

603
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 1: people would tell you the Jags, but until the Jags

604
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:33,600
Speaker 1: actually show it, I'm not buying that they win in

605
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,480
Speaker 1: March and they're gonna win in September. As a result.

606
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,320
Speaker 1: That happened one year, twenty seventeen. It was it Klay's

607
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:43,440
Speaker 1: Campbell a J. Boyer, good draft that year, and away

608
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:47,239
Speaker 1: they went. That's one time. After that, it's been a

609
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:51,479
Speaker 1: bust every time they've done that. Okay, next two's better.

610
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 1: It's draft time. In case you didn't notice, two weeks

611
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,839
Speaker 1: from today, Miller outdoor theater, it'll be live right here,

612
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 1: all right, So let's do this. You have futile players

613
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 1: at the same position, which is just the way it is, right.

614
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,440
Speaker 1: You got multiple offensive lineman, multiple tackles obviously within that,

615
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:09,400
Speaker 1: you got multiple corners. You got Sauce and Stanley a corner.

616
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,239
Speaker 1: You got receivers. You got all this right last year

617
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:18,040
Speaker 1: you had receivers. Let's just take this pair right here.

618
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 1: Who's better now and who is better in your mind

619
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 1: going into the draft, jail and Waddle or Jamar Chase.

620
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:31,840
Speaker 1: Now I'll point this out that Waddle with the Dolphins.

621
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:34,240
Speaker 1: I mean, he put up one hundred four catch season,

622
00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 1: and you know who was throwing up a football, Jamar Chase.

623
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:41,279
Speaker 1: He looked very good explosive. I mean fourteen hundred and

624
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:45,400
Speaker 1: fifty five yards my goodness on eighty one catches. I

625
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 1: mean he really knew how to move with the football

626
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:51,399
Speaker 1: in his hands. Who's better, Johnny and who was better

627
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,479
Speaker 1: going into the draft in your opinion? Look, they both

628
00:35:55,360 --> 00:36:00,319
Speaker 1: wrote books, they wrote novels. That's the only thing that's

629
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,800
Speaker 1: the same about them. They're receivers. Everything else is different.

630
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:08,240
Speaker 1: Everything else. Jamar Chase I had rated ahead of Jalen Waddle.

631
00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:11,480
Speaker 1: I had Jamar Chase number three overall. Last year's Trevor Lawrence.

632
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 1: I don't remember who's at two. Jamar Chase was at three,

633
00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:16,560
Speaker 1: and I remember they're being something to be oh y

634
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:18,160
Speaker 1: opted out, what's it gonna be? I said, look, this

635
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:20,680
Speaker 1: dude's a baller, and then he proved it. He went

636
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,160
Speaker 1: back obviously with his teammate Joe Burrow, and that helped.

637
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 1: But the Bengals take him and put him on the

638
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 1: backside of a tripsformation and he's back over there into

639
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 1: the boundaries, working one on one on dudes and going

640
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:33,920
Speaker 1: to town, I mean going to town on guys. And

641
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 1: he's in his first year. Jalen does it differently. He's

642
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 1: gonna line up in a slot he's gonna take push passes,

643
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:44,239
Speaker 1: he's gonna catch bubble screens, it's gonna be shallows, it's

644
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 1: gonna be over routes. He might catch the slot fade

645
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 1: every now and again, and that's something I think the

646
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 1: Dolphins got to do a little bit more with him.

647
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 1: But they're receivers, really, and I mean just because that's

648
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,040
Speaker 1: the name you give those guys that catch the football

649
00:36:57,040 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 1: as much as they do, but they're so complete lead different. Now.

650
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:04,320
Speaker 1: Jay Waddle I love because he's from Houston. He's a homeboy.

651
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:08,040
Speaker 1: I love him. I would argue that Jamar Chase is

652
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:13,080
Speaker 1: one of the top three receivers in the league right now. Wow, Okay,

653
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:17,240
Speaker 1: it's not just about the numbers, not just about the numbers.

654
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,360
Speaker 1: I didn't even quote. I don't even quoe Jamar Chases numbers. No,

655
00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:24,160
Speaker 1: I didn't even not one iota. You just watch the

656
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:27,720
Speaker 1: game film and you can see that dude is really

657
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,759
Speaker 1: freaking good, really good. You have the game plan for

658
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 1: that guy. Eventually in Miami, you're gonna have to game

659
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,080
Speaker 1: plan for Waddle. I don't think it's there yet, but

660
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,040
Speaker 1: Jamar Chase is that dude. Wattle seems to be like

661
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:41,760
Speaker 1: a technician, and he's gonna have a lot of production,

662
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:45,040
Speaker 1: a really good target, good looking target. That's a that's

663
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,359
Speaker 1: a high number for a rookie right there. All right,

664
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:52,760
Speaker 1: Who's better Johnny Baker Mayfield's twenty twenty Browns who finished

665
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:57,680
Speaker 1: eleven and five or the twenty twenty two Browns quarterbacked

666
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:01,839
Speaker 1: by Watson, assuming he played, is that there's no suspension

667
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,120
Speaker 1: and that he can play the bulk of the season

668
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: twenty twenty Browns, not last year, the year before when

669
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:10,400
Speaker 1: they went eleven and five or this year is Browns

670
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:15,080
Speaker 1: with Watson? Who's better? The first thing that stands out

671
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:18,440
Speaker 1: the fact that in twenty twenty Baker Mayfield did have Juice.

672
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,880
Speaker 1: He had Landry for most of twenty twenty, if not

673
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 1: all twenty twenty. That's that's massive. Now. I don't know

674
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,800
Speaker 1: where land I don't know if Landard isn't signed anywhere,

675
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,440
Speaker 1: I don't think. And I had heard the Browns or

676
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:32,879
Speaker 1: Browns fans were like, yo, yo, come on back, come

677
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:34,960
Speaker 1: on back. So I don't know what happens there, but

678
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,560
Speaker 1: Juice was. He's a decent piece of that twenty twenty offense.

679
00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 1: Austin Hooper at tight end, He's the longer there. I

680
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 1: think Deshan makes up for it, but I really don't

681
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:49,400
Speaker 1: know at this point where Cleveland finds receptions. I think

682
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 1: Donovan People's Jones is underrated. I think I think he's

683
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:53,839
Speaker 1: got an opportunity to kind of be one of those

684
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,440
Speaker 1: guys that was drafted later rounds. You look back and go, man,

685
00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:58,840
Speaker 1: how did that guy get to the later rounds? And

686
00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 1: you're like, because Michigan quarterback stunk. They did pick up

687
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 1: a Marii Cooper, so I think that's a nice little

688
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,880
Speaker 1: one two and jakeem Grants in the slot, but you

689
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:09,759
Speaker 1: do slot things with him. I do think they need

690
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,919
Speaker 1: one more one more piece. Maybe it's in joke who

691
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:17,840
Speaker 1: they franchised. I think Luc Jarvis Landry is big. I

692
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:21,480
Speaker 1: think they're more talented on defense in twenty twenty two.

693
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:26,320
Speaker 1: I think their overall across the board, adding John Johnson

694
00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:29,360
Speaker 1: last year, Troy Hill they added last year as a nickel,

695
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,880
Speaker 1: Denzel Ward just gets better and better. I think defensively

696
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:36,120
Speaker 1: they're a little bit better in twenty twenty two. I

697
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:39,320
Speaker 1: think Watson's better than Baker Mayfield. If Sean plays the

698
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 1: whole year, I think it's twenty twenty two Browns. All right,

699
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 1: we'll see because they'll be at NRG Stadium, folks. And

700
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,200
Speaker 1: we don't know when schedule is going to come out.

701
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 1: Sometime after the draft, you know, we'll be all over that.

702
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:53,879
Speaker 1: All right, coming up? I got one more Who's better?

703
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,560
Speaker 1: I've got who's better? Drake or just kidding about that,

704
00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,080
Speaker 1: but man, that tweet is gaining a lot of a

717
00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:51,160
Speaker 1: Harris with you, so, Lane tweeted in I have a

718
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:53,319
Speaker 1: twenty four year old daughter who loves Drake. But if

719
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:54,840
Speaker 1: you ask her who the best is, she'll tell you

720
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,520
Speaker 1: George Strait every day of the year. Later, are you sure?

721
00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:04,319
Speaker 1: Are you sure that she's really meaning that pandering to dad?

722
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 1: I need the car keys too, by the way. Or

723
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:09,480
Speaker 1: she's twenty four, so I would think that she's off somewhere.

724
00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:13,279
Speaker 1: You never know, all right, But yeah, George Strait is awesome. Look,

725
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 1: it's music. It's objective. It's like, what's the best movie.

726
00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:18,239
Speaker 1: It's The Godfather? But you know that's a fact. But

727
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 1: you know, you might have another opinion. I don't know.

728
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:24,239
Speaker 1: I mean some of our some of our younger, our

729
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:28,640
Speaker 1: younger employees think gets too slow. They thought Tyler Sutt

730
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:33,240
Speaker 1: aren't there. Emmy Award winning video of Thodellas was too slow? What? Okay?

731
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,480
Speaker 1: So you can't. I love SUTs to death. He's like

732
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:39,359
Speaker 1: my he's like my little brother. But you can't put

733
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:44,160
Speaker 1: any reliance at all on anything when it comes to

734
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:49,520
Speaker 1: movies with SUTs, none whatsoever. Yeah, I told him that, uh,

735
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 1: let's just put it this way. He didn't know who

736
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:57,680
Speaker 1: Margot Robbie was. Oh that see. Yeah, you can't talk

737
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 1: movies with him, can't do it, Sorry, Tyler. He's but

738
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:05,439
Speaker 1: he's won an Emmy. He's good. He's won videos. He does.

739
00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 1: He does a tremendous job. He just doesn't know the

740
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 1: movies because he puts all of his effort in pork.

741
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,359
Speaker 1: He does, and he won the Emmy. Like I said,

742
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:17,480
Speaker 1: But building the Texans, he produces that. He's our lead producer.

743
00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,240
Speaker 1: He does all the cool stuff we have on Houston

744
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:24,280
Speaker 1: Texas dot com and the Texans app. Also usful Johnny.

745
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,359
Speaker 1: It is this weekend, so it's funny when you look

746
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:31,440
Speaker 1: at the schedule. New Jersey General's at the Birmingham Stallions.

747
00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 1: Where have you gone? Cliff Stout and Brian's Pipe, Houston

748
00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:37,759
Speaker 1: Gamblers at the Michigan Panthers. Where have you got? Jim

749
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 1: Kelly and Bobby Abear or the Philadelphia Stars at the

750
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:45,319
Speaker 1: Breakers Chuck Fusina. And this is my second favorite all

751
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 1: time pro quarterback. That's a non Texan behind Dan Founds.

752
00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:53,200
Speaker 1: It's Johnny Walton of the old Boston Breakers. Look him up.

753
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:55,600
Speaker 1: But all these games are being played at Birmingham. There

754
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:58,400
Speaker 1: are no home in road teams. It's just for decoration.

755
00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:01,319
Speaker 1: I guess maybe they'll as the stadium. Are they doing

756
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:05,080
Speaker 1: a doubleheader because on Saturday, let's I think it's a

757
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:11,320
Speaker 1: triple header. On Saturday or Sunday, they're doing a triple header.

758
00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:16,560
Speaker 1: Noone four at eight. That's kind of awesome. And Mark,

759
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:20,320
Speaker 1: I saw this, Gosh, where did I see this? The

760
00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 1: A ticket is an all day tickets like an NC

761
00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 1: double a tournament ticket when you have the when you

762
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:28,960
Speaker 1: have the regional or you've got the first second rounds.

763
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:31,280
Speaker 1: The first second rounds are some of the best sporting

764
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:33,080
Speaker 1: events ever go to because you have four games in

765
00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:36,320
Speaker 1: a day. You go game, twenty minute break, game, and

766
00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:37,960
Speaker 1: then there's about an hour and a half break. You

767
00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:40,399
Speaker 1: come back if you're going to launch or whatever, then

768
00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:45,279
Speaker 1: game twenty minutes game. It's amazing. It's ten bucks. It's

769
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:49,279
Speaker 1: ten bucks a ticket for the entire day, so play

770
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:52,960
Speaker 1: in the same stadium. Ten bucks. Yes, well, you know what,

771
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:55,720
Speaker 1: that's the smartest thing they've done. They have to charge

772
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:57,920
Speaker 1: very little. They have to get butts in the seats.

773
00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 1: I think a COVID World made them feel better about

774
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 1: having it all in one location and from what I heard,

775
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 1: we talked to coach about this, Dave McGinnis from the

776
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:11,040
Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans radio crew. He said that because he talked

777
00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 1: to Jeff Fisher about it. He said that the idea

778
00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,920
Speaker 1: is that it's a success on TV. The ratings are

779
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,279
Speaker 1: good enough that these teams can retreat to their home

780
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:22,480
Speaker 1: cities by next year. But that would mean you have

781
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:25,719
Speaker 1: the Houston Gamblers and the Houston whatever they're gonna call it.

782
00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:27,320
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're gonna call it the Roughnecks

783
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:29,600
Speaker 1: and the XFL, and I haven't even heard if they're

784
00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:31,880
Speaker 1: back in Houston for sure. Al the Wade Phillips is

785
00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:34,439
Speaker 1: coaching a team, I would assume it's Houston. We should

786
00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:36,600
Speaker 1: know these things, but who cares. We're into the NFL,

787
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:39,280
Speaker 1: all right, But I love that Wade's coaching. Good luck, Wade,

788
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,759
Speaker 1: and I will check this out this week. And I

789
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:45,120
Speaker 1: love pro football. You know that, Johnny. The Harris one

790
00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,239
Speaker 1: hundred is up on Houston Texans dot com and the

791
00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:50,680
Speaker 1: Texans app all your stuff. Everything we've been talking about.

00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:53,680
Speaker 1: We have a show tomorrow. We are two weeks away,

793
00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:57,879
Speaker 1: my friend, from the event, the offseason super Bowl. You're

794
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:02,080
Speaker 1: charged up Mark King get here fast enough, I'll be Brullians.

795
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:05,200
Speaker 1: It cannot get here fast enough with these first round picks.

796
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,759
Speaker 1: You know, once the Shawn Watson trade was made and

797
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:13,680
Speaker 1: we had, as Nick said, clarity, it felt good, like, Okay,

798
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:17,520
Speaker 1: now we know what we're in store for. And if

799
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:20,600
Speaker 1: Nick decides the trade, just trade down once of one

800
00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:23,200
Speaker 1: of those first round picks. It gets even more exciting

801
00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:25,600
Speaker 1: to see what he'll get back in return. And how

802
00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:28,440
Speaker 1: this thing doesn't get built two weeks from now over

803
00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:32,120
Speaker 1: that weekend, but over the next three, four, five draft weekends,

804
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,440
Speaker 1: this thing gets rebuilt in the right way with a

805
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:37,359
Speaker 1: solid foundation. Yep, you got a lot of picks. Let's

806
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:38,759
