1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,560 Speaker 1: What's going on? Everybody? Welcome to a Monday day show. 2 00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:06,120 Speaker 1: Texans All Access SIMY host John Harris football analysts had 3 00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 1: a great hour with Coach Kelly on the Coach Kelly's Show, 4 00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: Just prior and Glad you're with me, Warm, dry, sunny, 5 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,079 Speaker 1: not like it was yesterday. But I'll tell you this, 6 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 1: I go back and relived that day three hundred and 7 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:22,920 Speaker 1: sixty six out of three sixty five every single day 8 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:26,480 Speaker 1: of the week. If when Zeros hit the clock, the 9 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 1: Texans have more points than the Titans. That, my friends, 10 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:34,559 Speaker 1: was absolutely awesome to walk off the field yesterday at 11 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 1: Nissan Stadium. Last time we were on the fields twenty nineteen, 12 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:42,200 Speaker 1: we won that game too, had a couple of soul crushers. 13 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: Last year's not a fun game, but was up in 14 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 1: the stands, which was kind of weird. But yesterday, seeing 15 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: the joy of the guys walk in the locker room, 16 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: the smiles, the hugs, the handshakes and everything was just 17 00:00:55,640 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: an absolute joy to see yesterday in Nashville two to thirteen. Look, 18 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 1: it's never pretty, but I don't But who cares when 19 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 1: they start having a column for pretty wins versus wins 20 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: versus losses versus pretty losses, then don't worry about it. 21 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 1: But aesthetics, NAT don't care. Texas had more points than 22 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 1: the Titans and Nats all that mattered on that day. 23 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 1: So we'll celebrate a little bit more tonight talking to 24 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 1: our pal Andre where just the second d also the 25 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: general John McClain. Then we'll bounce on the NFL and 26 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,759 Speaker 1: find out what happened in games that were going on. 27 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 1: And I said this a few times during broadcasting during 28 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: Texas Monday this morning, talking about I couldn't. I couldn't 29 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 1: my hands, I couldn't feel anything. My hands were soaked. 30 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: I couldn't get to my phone. My phone was just 31 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: getting soaked. So I had no idea what was going 32 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: on throughout the NFL. So I got on the bus 33 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: and I'm just rifling through them like Jonathan Taylor did 34 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: what the culture beating the bills by what? And I'll 35 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: say Francisco taking business, taking care of business against Jacksonville. 36 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 1: So in some sense it was a good day. Some 37 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 1: were kind of like what just happened, And a few 38 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: teams that are definitely on the ropes, including one in 39 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: Las Vegas after three l's in a row, we'll get 40 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: to that a little bit later. Right now, it's not 41 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 1: for our friend Andre where to join the show. Your 42 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,079 Speaker 1: thoughts on it, your thoughts on it a day later. 43 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: What you saw defense, offense, the general feel of it 44 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,519 Speaker 1: looking at it, you look back and you go through 45 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: through the stat sheet. There's no way that Texans should 46 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 1: have won this game. I mean, they were third downs, 47 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:30,239 Speaker 1: they lost their total yards, it was Tennessee four twenty 48 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:36,519 Speaker 1: Texans one ninety passing yards three seventeen to one oh seven, 49 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 1: rushing yards one h three to eighty three, and then 50 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 1: time of possession they lost there. But the turnovers are 51 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: the great equalizer in this game. And so when you 52 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: get two inside the ten yard line and then five 53 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: all day, that's gonna win you. A lot of football 54 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: games are keep you in a lot of football games. 55 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 1: And that's what it was. That's exactly where you could 56 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: point to the defense doing its job, bending but don't 57 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: not breaking. And it was it was fun to watch 58 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: in a big downpour there in Nashville. Yeah, tell me 59 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 1: about it rainy days at home. Yeah, exactly. Drey Tyra Taylor, 60 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: you have played the quarterback puisition. You played in all 61 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 1: kinds of weather you know how difficult that was yesterday 62 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: for Tyrod and second half was definitely not a masterpiece. 63 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: But what he was able to do to bounce back 64 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 1: after Miami, what did you think of that? How he 65 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: He won't say he redeemed himself, but I used those 66 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: words in my article this morning. He sorted had a 67 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: little bit of redemption because the game in Miami was 68 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: just so unlike him, but he came up with big 69 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: plays at big times yesterday. What was your role thought 70 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: about what Tyrod brought to not just the offense but 71 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: the entire team yesterday. Yeah, that's just kind of how 72 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: life he is. I mean, it's all about timing right place, 73 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: right time, right situation at the right time, and yesterday 74 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: was was was the time for him where he didn't 75 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: turn the ball over. And you know, you look at 76 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: a guy that people look at in a very hold 77 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: a lot of respect for Ryan Tannehill, and he turns 78 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: it over four times, and so when when you when 79 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 1: you have that, yeah, sort of a redemption because what 80 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: turn it over three times in Miami and against that 81 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: football this against any team in the NFL, you turn 82 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: it over a bunch as the Titans did yesterday. They are, 83 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: they're gonna lose a bunch of ball games. And so 84 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: the Texans took full advantage of the turnovers. I think 85 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: almost all of them led to two points of some sort. 86 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: And it at the end of the day, you look 87 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 1: at the scoreboard and it spells twenty two thirteen. It's 88 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 1: it was. I don't know about a redemption, but certainly 89 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 1: he managed it well yesterday. And some pretty poor conditions. Yeah, 90 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: and the ability to sacrifice the body andre the passing 91 00:04:55,400 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: game not clicking, running games certainly not clicking. Quite the opposite. 92 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: He knew he had to put it on his shoulders 93 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: a couple of times, and he did that. Yeah. I mean, 94 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: there are certain instances in a game where you know 95 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 1: you want your quarterback to protect himself certainly and lived 96 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 1: to fight the next down. And then there are certain instances, 97 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,719 Speaker 1: especially later in the game or in scoring situations, where 98 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: you got to lay out and reach for the goal line. 99 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: You know you're gonna take a hit, but you're sacrificing 100 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 1: for the team's success. And I thought he played he 101 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: did that yesterday. He played that way. He was smart 102 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: with the football efficient at times when he needed to be, 103 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,039 Speaker 1: when it was really coming down and and I think 104 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: that that's what led this team to a victory that 105 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: along with and I'll say it again, the defense's performance 106 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: was just sick yesterday. It was fun to watch and 107 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: I'm glad it was our defense and not there. Drake 108 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: came up with a theory. We talked about it during 109 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:55,919 Speaker 1: the breaks and on the air, and it was I thought, 110 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 1: maybe the biggest mystery of the game. And it was like, 111 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: I'm in San Diego, the game we staw playing on 112 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:06,359 Speaker 1: our computerser or kids, where is Deonta Foreman? And I 113 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: came up with a theory and I'm gonna bounce I 114 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 1: bounced off. I'm bounced off you. So Foreman's rolling on 115 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: that drive right. I have a theory that Foreman came 116 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: out of the game, was a little bit tired, not 117 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: quite all the way there. And Brabel looked at him like, 118 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,239 Speaker 1: you're asking out of the game. Now you're killing these guys. 119 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 1: This is a team that cut you move on. And 120 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,279 Speaker 1: Rabel just got off in his feelings on it and 121 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: then didn't go back to him. That's my theory. What 122 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: are your thoughts about how crazy that theory is? Yeah, 123 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 1: I mean it seems logical. I just you know, I 124 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 1: find it hard that he would even ask out of 125 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: the game, and I know they were they were substituting. 126 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: Here here's what may and my world of conspiracy theory works. 127 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 1: I think he in the course of substituting, and this 128 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: is on coaches and he meant whether it's assists or 129 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 1: the head coach of whomever. But when he's going like that, 130 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 1: they were substituting. And then I think he got substituted 131 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: for it and they just forgot about him. He's a 132 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: new new guy there, but he was at the time 133 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: he came out, he was chewing the defense up on 134 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: the run or in the run game, and I think 135 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: they just substituted, forgot about him, got in a series 136 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: of plays or personnel packages that didn't include him, and 137 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: he sat for what two plus quarters before he came 138 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: back in ice cole in the fourth quarter, and they're 139 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: expecting him to create the same magic that he had 140 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: earlier on in the game and not after sitting two 141 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: and a half quarter. So I think that I would 142 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: think it's more of that along those lines than it 143 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: would be that he checked himself out again, because there's 144 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: you know, you want to play against the team that 145 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: that lets you go, that that cuts you. And I 146 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: don't know that Deante would check himself out at any point. 147 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: They'd have to pull him out. Well, you could understand 148 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: if he wasn't in the most fantastic shape ever no 149 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: training camp. He did look good. He looks but he 150 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: always looks good, doesn't he One of the years he 151 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: looked bad? Yeah he does. Okay, all right, Well, I 152 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 1: was a little surprised about that. And they pressed that 153 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson button a lot. But it might be a button. 154 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: You might not want to press that offen anymore. I'm 155 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: not so sure it's gonna work out. Look, he had 156 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: nine carries for forty and a four point four average. 157 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: But we all know we saw yesterday long of sixteen. 158 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: When you get a sixteen yard pop, you're thinking, okay, great, 159 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 1: he's back. But it doesn't seem like he's back. And 160 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 1: it's a lot to ask for. You're talking about one 161 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: of the top five guys all time, he's forty five 162 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 1: years old or whatever. Yeah, that that that burst just 163 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 1: in there like it used to be. And I mean 164 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: even when he broke for the sixteen, an older version 165 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 1: of himself might have housed it, you know, on a 166 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 1: couple of occasions, but you know, all of a sudden 167 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 1: it's there and it's not. The other backs. Hilliard and 168 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: Foreman h in my opinion, just looked better. I mean 169 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 1: they did, they hit the whole better. They showed tremendous quickness. 170 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: Hilliard I think has kind of carved himself a place 171 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: there in Tennessee. He's gonna be there for a while. 172 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: I think Deonta Foreman, if all is right in between 173 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,839 Speaker 1: his ears, Um, they can. Those are two that they 174 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: could actually to go to games with, uh and and 175 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,959 Speaker 1: win and provided Tannehill doesn't turn the football over four 176 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:33,199 Speaker 1: times or however, you know, however many going forward. Uh, 177 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: they've got a chance to win with those two backs 178 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: and a quarterback that doesn't turn it over. No, these injuries, 179 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 1: if injuries that killed him, they've worn them out. I mean, 180 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 1: no Julio Jones and then A J. Brown leaves the 181 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 1: game at some point, that's uh, it's it's absolutely wearing 182 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 1: that team out. That's the bigger one to me, because 183 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: Jones hasn't done anything for them, and I think that 184 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 1: was all speculation. But Brown has been really good. Look, 185 00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 1: we've seen the development he's a weapon and and did 186 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 1: not have him and das King with the hit on 187 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 1: the sideline. That was really great because it was it 188 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 1: was legal, and it was opportunistic and it caused him 189 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: to leave the game. I watched him for I think 190 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: it was the next two maybe three plays. He was 191 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: on a knee with his helmet off. I watched, I 192 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,199 Speaker 1: was listening, and I was watching the play was kind 193 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: of going on. Through my view, I could see him 194 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 1: on a knee with his helmet off. They never gave 195 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 1: any indication the first time when he heard his hand. 196 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 1: Before the end of the series, they put up on 197 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: the board a J. Brown questionable hand with this. They 198 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: didn't put anything on the board or make any mention 199 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 1: of A. J. Brown at that particular point. But I 200 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: had a feeling like he's not He's not coming back 201 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: into that. He's not coming back into this one. You know. 202 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,719 Speaker 1: Dave McGinnis does the color for Titans Radio. I talked 203 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: to him before the game. They were more concerned about 204 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 1: McNichols not being available because he's their third down guy. 205 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: He's a really good pass protector, and they also thought 206 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: the loss of Swain and Dre you talked about John 207 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: who Smith not being in Tennessee anymore, and now you 208 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: have swam out, not that they're the same kind of guy, 209 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: but you do chip away. Look the Texans, no one's 210 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: gonna sing the blues for the Titans because the Texans 211 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: are without a ton of people. We don't need to 212 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: go there. But it's just as far as the Titan 213 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: situation goes. With the top record of the AFC, and 214 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 1: they got to go to New England next week, this 215 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 1: is gonna be fun to watch. Yeah, I don't I 216 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 1: wouldn't pick Tennessee in that game going to New England, 217 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 1: not under the current circumstances in which they're operating. And 218 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: who knows if A. J. Brown's back, you just mention 219 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: mentioned Swain, if they're they are in love with that 220 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: that Adrian Peterson, But because you know he comes in, 221 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: he's got a name, he's probably flashing in practice, but 222 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 1: practice is nothing like the game. You know, he's house 223 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: in every run and so on and so forth, showing 224 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: that and he's in good shape, but he just doesn't 225 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 1: have the burst that he had. So they're shorthand right now. 226 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 1: And I don't know when Julio Jones will be will 227 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 1: be back who knows there? So sword hand going on 228 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 1: the road against the team that's uh that you could 229 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: say is one of the hotter teams in the AFC 230 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: right now, would have they ripped off like five in 231 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: a row or so, it's, uh, that's that's a tough 232 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 1: order for Tennessee to h to ask to go in 233 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: and win there. So I don't, I don't. I don't 234 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 1: like the Titans in that one. Next week, so I 235 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 1: was coming back out before the game. I'd walked down 236 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: back behind the end zone that fairbird hit the field goal, 237 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: and the Titans were doing a lot of individual workouts 238 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,839 Speaker 1: and such with our guy Brian Bell, who used to 239 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: be here with the Texans and today we're doing some 240 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 1: workouts and now all of them going back in the 241 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: locker room, and they had the ropes, the ladder ropes. Yeah, 242 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: I mean you've done those three million times, a lot 243 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: of ropes. Yeah. And there's a guy there's a guy 244 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,199 Speaker 1: standing there like kind of kind of bending down a 245 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: little bit. I don't know if he's kind of fixing 246 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: or stretching a little bit. And I'm like, I honestly, 247 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 1: I said to myself, why why is a coach gonna 248 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: go through these this rope ladder and I was walking past. 249 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,680 Speaker 1: I didn't stop and look, but I was like, why 250 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: is a coach? Because this guy kind of look a 251 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 1: little older, I mean, almost a little gray in his 252 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 1: in his uh on his chin. And I thought, man, 253 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 1: it's pretty diehard coaches. And then I hear these kids 254 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: start screaming behind me and I think they're saying Peyton, Peyton, 255 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: but they were screaming ap ap that guy was Adrian Peterson. 256 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: And I was like, oh my god, I just thought 257 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,840 Speaker 1: that guy was a forty something year old coach. And 258 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: then I'm like, that's Adrian Peterson, which A he was 259 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: in tremendous shape, but b it's just I mean, you 260 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 1: don't you don't think about it. And the age for 261 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:47,439 Speaker 1: a running back is I mean, you know, you get 262 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: to the age of thirty and guys are like, he's 263 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 1: thirty six and it's it's probably time. But then it 264 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 1: hit me he was a freshman superstar in two thousand 265 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: and four and tearr seventeen years ago. Yeah, and I'm sure, 266 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 1: I'm sure he can go through all the drills as 267 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: he used to. You can you know, it's there going 268 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: through practice and you know the ladder and all that 269 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: you describe, But when you get in the game, it's 270 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: a different deal. It's you know, other guys are just 271 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: a little bit faster to you than they used to 272 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: be because now you've slown down a little bit. And 273 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 1: every every handoff, I thought for sure we were going 274 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: to collect the safety when they were, you know, back 275 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: with tannehill scrambling and so on and so forth. But 276 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 1: with Adrian, it's always got to be a cut first. 277 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: It's always the ball and let me cut, as opposed 278 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: to just kind of hitting it. And that's what they 279 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: get from the other two and Deonte and Hilliard. It's 280 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: just a different look and guys doing you have backs 281 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: that hit it, they don't have to hold it blocks long. 282 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: So the running game looks a whole lot better with 283 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 1: the other two than it does with Adrian Peterson right now, 284 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: just how it is Dre. We asked this question of 285 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 1: John McClain earlier, and I mean, I think it's I 286 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: think my answer to this question has changed all throughout 287 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 1: the last eight nine weeks. Who's the best team in 288 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: the AFC right now? You gotta take a hundred bucks 289 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: both you guys, You guys, take a hundred bucks and 290 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: go to Vegas because you're watching a Raiders game. For 291 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 1: some reason, you stop by one of those You stop 292 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 1: by Caesar's, Caesar's rewards for everywhere you play. Yeah, and 293 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 1: you gotta put a hundred bucks on AFC team. Which 294 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: one you put it on to win the AFC and 295 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 1: which team's got the best chance to win a Super 296 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 1: Bowl on the FC? Go ahead, Raig, oh Man, I 297 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 1: can go first. If you want me to go ahead, 298 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 1: I'll take the Chiefs. I'll take the Chiefs. Look, they're 299 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 1: playing better defensively. I think that the offense at any 300 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,160 Speaker 1: given moment can explode. They might not, but at any 301 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 1: given moment, they can explode. I can't believe in Buffalo 302 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: right now. I can't believe in Baltimore. That was nice yesterday. 303 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: Seen them win without Lamar, just carve out a win 304 00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: in any way, shape or form on the road. That 305 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 1: was pretty cool for them. Everyone's kind of the patriot 306 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 1: media disturbs me because they're just digushing. Oh benechits a 307 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 1: Jesus because look at them. No, look, I'm just jealous. 308 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: I hate them. You know how much I hate that team? 309 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: But I can't trust them in a big situation just yet. 310 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 1: Mac Jones is doing a good job pecking people to 311 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 1: death with that shortened medium range passing game, and good 312 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 1: for them, it's working. But I can't believe in them yet. 313 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 1: They played pretty good defense. I'm gonna go Chiefs. Look 314 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 1: the Chargers. I can't believe in them after they did 315 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: everything they possibly could to lose the game last night, 316 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: and then the Steelers for some reason give up a 317 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: wide open touchdown after they seize control of the game. 318 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: I guess they didn't have control. I don't know. I'm 319 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: gonna go chief story. They have the track record. I'm 320 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: gonna disagree with you because I think teams that can 321 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 1: run the football are willing, that are willing to stay 322 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 1: with the run eventually cracked the Chiefs armor, and so 323 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 1: I just don't see it. And they're about an injury 324 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 1: away from really being ordinary. I think it's to me 325 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 1: right now, it would be the Ravens because they have 326 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:09,479 Speaker 1: won tough games, they are proving under pressure when they're 327 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 1: when they're hot, finally healthy and cooking and Lamars in 328 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: the lineup, and they are tough to be and then 329 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 1: yesterday they go on the road. Yeah, it's the Bears, 330 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 1: but it's on the road without your starting quarterback. Then 331 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 1: they find a way to win defensively, you know that 332 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: you're gonna get their best every week and they're gonna 333 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:27,920 Speaker 1: they'll get after you on that side of the ball. 334 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,400 Speaker 1: So for me, it would be the Ravens right now, 335 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 1: sitting at seven and three. I think a second team 336 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: would be the Patriots because until you stop that short 337 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,639 Speaker 1: passing game, that's how Brady made his living or you know, 338 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 1: for a very very long long period of time, Mac 339 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: Jones is kind of picked up the torch and taking 340 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 1: off and run with it. And you know they're going 341 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,919 Speaker 1: to be sound every single week on defense. So they 342 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: got a little mix a running game in there, a 343 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: quarterback that's taking care of the football, and a defense 344 00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 1: that I mean an offense that's just good and so 345 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 1: that they're gonna be a tough out. So those two 346 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,640 Speaker 1: would be mine. But Baltimore, New England right now, I'm 347 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: above both of your minds with my wild cardats the Indianapolis. Yeah, 348 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: I don't know that trust Carson Wentz. I mean we're 349 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:18,679 Speaker 1: just talking about I don't know that you can always 350 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: you know, every one of the teams. You don't know 351 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 1: that you can fully trust exactly what you see. But 352 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 1: Carson wentz. But my goodness j T twenty eight JT 353 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 1: twenty eight with that offensive line. Oh my god, here 354 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 1: they did to Buffalo yesterday was just ruthless. Here's what 355 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,640 Speaker 1: upsets me about about Taylor. Everyone's talking about Taylor should 356 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 1: be the MVP, should be an MVP candidate. Okay, good 357 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,200 Speaker 1: for him. Where was this with Derrick Henry last year 358 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,959 Speaker 1: when Derrick Henry should have been the should have been 359 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 1: the MVP? And look, I hate arguing for anything Titan right, 360 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: I hate that, but I do. But it's kind of, 361 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 1: you know, Derek Henry kind of paved the way, if 362 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 1: you will, for this short range for now Jonathan Taylor 363 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 1: MVP conversation, Well, tell me that. It's why I can't. 364 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 1: I can't go Indianapolis because I know wins And and 365 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,880 Speaker 1: Winson figure out a way to ruin the soup somehow. 366 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,680 Speaker 1: I mean, it's taking nice and good. He will figure 367 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: out a way to put too much salt in it 368 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,640 Speaker 1: or something and it needs some paprika. It just happens. 369 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: I don't know why it happens, but it just happens. 370 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 1: So I looked there because of the way they're playing 371 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,439 Speaker 1: right now, because of the way Jonathan Taylor's going. But 372 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: I just know that that wins is in the mix somehow, 373 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 1: and he's gonna run the soup quarterback most likely to 374 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: put salt in the soup instead of sugar or vice 375 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 1: versa Carson Whale. Oh yeah, left handed task. It'll happen. 376 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: That it will happen. You're right. I just man, if 377 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: you want to take someone's soul, you want to snatch 378 00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: somebody's soul, just run one game in India's like, yeah, 379 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 1: that's not good, all right, Dre, You've done games for 380 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: the Cougs and the Cincinnati Bearcats. Who wins who wins 381 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: that championship? Right? Well, all right, never mind the prediction, 382 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 1: but but give me what the Cougs need to do 383 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: to pull off an upset in that game. Not turn 384 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 1: the ball over first and foremost. I think they're gonna 385 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 1: end up in Cincinnati for this game, because since I 386 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: have the Cincinnati East Carolina game this week, so I'll 387 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:33,479 Speaker 1: see Cincinnati again, um, and I think I think they're favored, 388 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 1: and I think they'll go on the road and win 389 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 1: that game. If they win, the Cougs go to Cincinnati 390 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 1: for the American Championship Game. If they lose, Cincinnati comes 391 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: to Houston. But they can't turn the ball over. They 392 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 1: can't have moments and lapses like they had the other 393 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 1: day in the third quarter where they had five penalties 394 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 1: for eighty two yards and just played undisciplined against you know, 395 00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 1: a decent Memphis team. But if that Cincinnati, Cincinnati rings 396 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 1: you up and it becomes touchdowns, Desmond Ritters the best 397 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: quarterback they'll face this year. This is the best team 398 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 1: by far that they'll face. And I'm talking, you know, 399 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,920 Speaker 1: I'm going all the way back to the opener against 400 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: Texas Tech. Texas tex not as good as Cincinnati. They're 401 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: not even in the neighborhood on the block in the 402 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 1: area area code for that matter. This is a complete 403 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 1: team on defense, much like the Cougars. They're going to 404 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: play a lot of players on the defensive side of 405 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 1: the ball. They'll play as many Cougars, play as many 406 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 1: as thirty. They'll be upwards of about twenty five twenty 407 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,199 Speaker 1: eight players on that side. So they stay fresh for 408 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,679 Speaker 1: four quarters and then offensively and let me let me 409 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: back up They've got two corners that are gonna play 410 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: pro football, so you gotta beat them. Sauce on one 411 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 1: side and then Kobe Bryant on the other side. Sauce 412 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 1: is gonna be a first round pick. Kobe Bryant is 413 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 1: not far behind it. It's the best corner combination of 414 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: any team in college football at Cincinnati, and it's why 415 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,880 Speaker 1: they can shut you down. So the nathaliel Dale, as 416 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 1: much as I admire him, this is going to be 417 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 1: a test for him. It's going to be a test 418 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:12,400 Speaker 1: for Singleton on the outside. For the Coups, every receiver involved, 419 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 1: because they can just cover from across the board. And 420 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 1: then offensively, Jerome Ford to transfer from Alabama. Him at 421 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 1: running back is a grown man. He reminds me so 422 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 1: much of Frank Gore. It's sick. I mean, that's the 423 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 1: comparison I give him because he runs so hard. He's 424 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 1: so hard to bring down. But the Coups they get 425 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: they have a chance. Man, because of the way they're 426 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 1: playing defense, they get to the passer with just the 427 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: front floor. This will be a great, great football game. 428 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 1: Cincinnati can make it to the playoff, can't they? Dre 429 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: come on, they can crack through. They're the ones. They 430 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 1: can do it. They beat Notre Dame and Notre Dames 431 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 1: going good right now? See how let him go on, 432 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: Johnny only only to tell him no. Do they deserve 433 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:04,400 Speaker 1: to be there? Absolutely, they deserved the shots to be there, absolutely, 434 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 1: But they won't because of the way it's set up, 435 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: and somebody from behind them will jump them at the 436 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 1: last in the final week or so. It happened to 437 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 1: TCU right they were ranked way up, all of a 438 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: sudden they weren't in the top four anymore. It's gonna 439 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,399 Speaker 1: happens the same same thing's gonna happen to Cincinnati because 440 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: everybody's saying straight the schedule. When they've gone on the 441 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:27,199 Speaker 1: road and beat Indiana and gone on the road and 442 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 1: beat Notre Dame, a team that's right behind them and anybody, 443 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: and almost beat Georgia. Should have beaten Georgia in the 444 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: up in the Peach Bowl last year. But if the 445 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,360 Speaker 1: committee enables Notre Dame to jump Cincinnati, I mean, that's 446 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 1: that's what the big fly in the ointment here committee. 447 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: It's like command COMMI blind, They're blind. This year they 448 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 1: had Michigan ranked ahead of Michigan State at one point 449 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 1: and they beat them at their place. So I mean, 450 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: I don't know what what the what the hecks going 451 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 1: on in that committee room when they're voting, But I 452 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 1: need in there. I need an invite. Yes, I could 453 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 1: get I alone could get cincinn out of you. As 454 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 1: soon as you use the words the committee stop. Just that. 455 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 1: That's it. That's it, that's all you have to say. 456 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: All right, Drey, thanks so much of the time.

Yes, 480 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 1: he's a Nashville legend, but obviously he's a bigger legend 481 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 1: here in Houston, so he had plenty of thoughts about 482 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 1: this twenty two thirteen win over the Tennessee Titans. General 483 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: a day later, your thoughts on what you saw yesterday 484 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 1: in Nashville. He was a shocking upset, of course, and 485 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: the Titans were had won six in a row, five 486 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: in a row where teams went to the playoffs last year. 487 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,919 Speaker 1: They were seven and oh in all against teams that 488 00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,639 Speaker 1: were in the playoffs, and even though they had a 489 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 1: lot of injuries, they still had ten held great defense, 490 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: and to me, the unsung heroes were the offensive line, 491 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 1: not because of the run blocking, because Harold Landry, Jeffrey Simmons, 492 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 1: and Denico Autre, who had ten seven and a half 493 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: and five sacks, did not get a sack in this game. 494 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 1: I don't know how many times Tyrode was knocked down. 495 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: You know, they knocked down The Texans defense knocked down 496 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,879 Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill eight times and sacked him twice. But the 497 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: much bligned offensive line going up against those three, if 498 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,360 Speaker 1: you could have found anybody to make a bet that 499 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 1: they would have held the Titans sacklists, nobody would have 500 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 1: taken that because the Titans defense was playing great and 501 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 1: they played really well in this game, but keeping them 502 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 1: off of Taylor, and some of that was because of 503 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 1: Taylor's mobility. Both touchdowns were where he couldn't find the receiver. 504 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:03,159 Speaker 1: I thought the offensive line, those guys deserve recognition along 505 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,399 Speaker 1: with the defense, and people say, well, Lovey Smith's defense 506 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 1: had five Taro was knowing that four and Tremont Smith 507 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 1: had that bumble recovery on the put. You don't see 508 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: many teams that have won two games that are plus 509 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 1: two in turnover differential, and only three teams have forced 510 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:26,640 Speaker 1: more turnovers than the Texans have. That's Indianapolis. It's plus fifteen, 511 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 1: Buffalo plus ten, and New England plus six, and the 512 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: Texans are tied for four. Wait, the Cults are plus 513 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:41,160 Speaker 1: fifteen plus fifteen. They forced twenty five turnovers. That's the posts. 514 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: And they've got the best running back in the league 515 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 1: right now, Jonathan Taylor, which, yeah, good luck, good luck 516 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 1: stopping stopping that guy now at the train has left 517 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 1: the station. John, you mentioned the offensive line, no sacks, 518 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,199 Speaker 1: one quarterback hit and that actually was Elijah Molden who 519 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:55,880 Speaker 1: came on a blitz and hit Tyrod in the back 520 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 1: of the end zone. That was the only quarterback hit 521 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 1: that they had on the day. They held the ball, 522 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 1: didn't give it up, which is something that was different 523 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 1: from Miami. But John, that defense, let's talk about love 524 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 1: you Smith's defense with those four turnovers, four interceptions, the 525 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 1: way Ryan Tannehill struggled, there's no Derrick Henry and obviously 526 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: Tennessee is different without Derrick Henry than not taking anything 527 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:18,200 Speaker 1: way and then A. J. Brown went out of the game. 528 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: Just overall, thirty thousand foot view, general's gut reaction to 529 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: the defense and how it played overall two games in 530 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: a row. Defense has played great. It's giving up fifteen 531 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: points a game in the last two games, and it's 532 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: got the Jets coming to town. I guess Joe Flacco 533 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 1: he played well yesterday even though they got beat by Miami. 534 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: I'm assuming he'll be the quarterback again. I don't. I 535 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,479 Speaker 1: haven't seen anything as Zach Wilson will be healthy. So 536 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: they've got a chance three games in a row to 537 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: have big games. And it's interesting because they didn't have 538 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 1: John of Gernard. Jordan Jenkins went down with a torn 539 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 1: need ligament, and so they were missing people. Christen Kirksey's 540 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: still out. The player that I wrote about today was 541 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: Desmond King playing outside, who was with the Titans last year, 542 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 1: and they didn't resign him, and I'm guessing last night 543 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: they wish they'd great signing because he had two interceptions, 544 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 1: including that great one at the one yard line in 545 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: which he took the ball away from Fitzpatrick and then 546 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 1: the other one he had a twenty five yard return. 547 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: Looked like he was returning a punt to set them 548 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 1: up to win the game, to secure the victory. So 549 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 1: those were big, and then Terrence Mitchell's at the end. 550 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 1: You know when you have three or four interceptions in 551 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter against an offense. And yes, Henry was out, 552 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 1: A J. Brown was out. But in the last three games, 553 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: the Titans had averaged thirty nine point five points a 554 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 1: game against the Texas and yesterday they had thirteen. So 555 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 1: it was a tremendous performance by the defense that just 556 00:29:56,040 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 1: keeps seeming to get better. YopE, Gnnard is back, but 557 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 1: those alignments, you know, those guys overall have done a 558 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:10,959 Speaker 1: really good job. In two sacks yesterday, I thought the secondary, 559 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: with the interceptions, knocking down some passes, played its best game. 560 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 1: And we got to talk about special teams. Not only 561 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 1: Tremont Smith getting that fumble punt, but Cameron Johnson had 562 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: five punts inside the twenty and that was in the rain, 563 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 1: and he had a net. I always look at the net. 564 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 1: His net was forty one. It was forty three going 565 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 1: in and Desmond King had one return for ten yards 566 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 1: and their coverages were good. So I thought the special 567 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 1: teams that we're all talking about the defense and Tyrod 568 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:47,719 Speaker 1: Taylor's two rushing touchdowns, because you know, I thought they 569 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 1: might stop the game and give Tyrode the game ball 570 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 1: after he scored the first touchdown in two days more 571 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: than two months. Friday was two month anniversary of the 572 00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 1: last one. But the special teams did a really good job. 573 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 1: And when you're going to upset a team that's got 574 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 1: the best record in the conference and tied for the 575 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 1: best in the league, you're not going to just do 576 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 1: it with one of the three areas. You got to 577 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 1: have all three, and they did. You know, they still 578 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 1: can't run the ball. I don't think any of us 579 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 1: expects him to run again. But ever Tyrode in there, 580 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 1: it makes you wonder if he'd have been in there 581 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 1: all year. He now has three runs, he touchdowns. He's 582 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 1: about to play his first game in Houston, says Jacksonville. 583 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: And if somebody pointed out, somebody said, way, we're two 584 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 1: and one in the division. Yeah, Tyrod's two and one 585 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 1: as a starter, So I would expect him to throw 586 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: the ball a whole lot better at NRG Stadium than 587 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 1: he did yesterday where he really struggled, but he puts 588 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 1: heat on that defense with his mobility, and we all 589 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: knew he would, and so the Jets are going to 590 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,479 Speaker 1: have problems trying to keep up with him. Their defense 591 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 1: is number and their thirty second in the league. The 592 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: Texans will see the Titans again last game of the 593 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 1: regular season January ninth at Energy Stadium. General Titans still 594 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 1: have the best record in the conference. As you mentioned, 595 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: they'll play the Patriots this week. What do you think 596 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 1: here of that matchup? The league is so strange right now. 597 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: It feels like these teams that vault out to good 598 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:20,920 Speaker 1: records or really seem to establish themselves as leaders in 599 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: their division or conference contenders, they'll have a stinker game 600 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:28,040 Speaker 1: or two thrown in. It's a very strange situation throughout 601 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 1: the entire league. Titans have a lot of injuries. They've 602 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 1: already played more players than any team has ever played, 603 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 1: and that's what all these games left. They need a 604 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 1: bye week. It's late, but after the way they looked 605 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 1: yesterday where the running game started fast ended up with 606 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 1: one hundred and three yards and you know, they ripped 607 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 1: off three sixteen yard runs, which I was kind of 608 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: surprised because Texans played great run defense against Miami, but 609 00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 1: they got problems. Marcus Johnson another receiver any out as well, 610 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 1: so they're you know, the Patriots are now in first 611 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 1: place in the nfcast. Buffalo is just embarrassed at home 612 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,280 Speaker 1: by the Colts. That's the first time the Colts have 613 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: beaten a good team in Mike Goodness. Five touchdowns by 614 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,280 Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor and Pluddy four rushing. They're putting it all 615 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 1: together all of a sudden. Carson Wentz didn't have to 616 00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: win it. But there are two games behind the Titans, 617 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 1: and the way they're playing compared to the way the 618 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:30,440 Speaker 1: Titans are playing because of injuries, they might catch them. 619 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: They were talking into Press Bochester about Derrick Henry definitely 620 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 1: being able to return. He's not going to return for 621 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 1: the Texans game, but they think there was a chance 622 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 1: he could return for the playoffs and maybe they would 623 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 1: play him in that Texans game if they needed to win. 624 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 1: I thought he was done for the year, but they 625 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 1: seem to think he's not. John are the Chiefs that 626 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 1: shock in the FC right now? After what you saw 627 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 1: yesterday from the Titans. What you look at throughout the league. 628 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 1: The where the build Us have played or not played. 629 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 1: Are the Chiefs again the top team in the AFC. 630 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,840 Speaker 1: They've won four in a row. They are they played 631 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:15,240 Speaker 1: great defense, you know, the their offense had a great 632 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,880 Speaker 1: game last week in which my moms threw five touchdown 633 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 1: passes and they and they had He threw for over 634 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:27,720 Speaker 1: four hundred yards and five touchdown passes. So I'd say, uh, 635 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,360 Speaker 1: there are on a role. You know, New England's are 636 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,320 Speaker 1: on a roll. I still can't take them as a 637 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:38,240 Speaker 1: legitimate Super Bowl contended with a rookie quarterback. But Kansas City, uh, 638 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:42,359 Speaker 1: they're there now. The Chargers won a great game last night. 639 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 1: Raiders have gone straight down the toilet. Broncos are mediocre, 640 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:51,319 Speaker 1: you know. The Ravens are seven and three, and but 641 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,840 Speaker 1: if I had to pick a team right now that 642 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 1: I thought was going to represent the the AFC in 643 00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:00,439 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl, I would pick the Chiefs. Though it's 644 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 1: rare to have a team do that three consecutive years, 645 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:07,399 Speaker 1: but they are peaky. Now. We got a long way 646 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 1: to go, but they have definitely turned it around. If 647 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 1: their defense plays way I played yesterday, they got a 648 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 1: chance to go to another Super Bowl. What about NFC Arizona, 649 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 1: Oh Man, Arizona's one two of three with Carlton McCoy 650 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 1: at quarterback. You know who would have thunk it? I 651 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 1: certainly wouldn't wouldn't have Seattle boy, they're really struggling. Russell 652 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 1: Wilson is really struggling. And Green Bay just lost its 653 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:39,759 Speaker 1: second game and Aaron Rodgers has a toe injury that 654 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:44,239 Speaker 1: he says is worse than turf toe. Cowboys stunted up. 655 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,800 Speaker 1: You know the Cardinals right now, they're half game ahead 656 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 1: of the Packers. And we can't rule out the Buccaneers. 657 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 1: At this time last year, the Buccaneers were just starting 658 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 1: to put it together. But I think they have more 659 00:35:56,280 --> 00:36:00,680 Speaker 1: balance at the top than the AFC does right now. General, 660 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,920 Speaker 1: where are you with the Texans winning and those who say, well, 661 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 1: you want a great draft choice, whatever, where do you 662 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,319 Speaker 1: stand and all that? Well, I'm one of those who 663 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:13,280 Speaker 1: said you want a great damn choice or whatever, because 664 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:17,400 Speaker 1: I was writing about that last week. But nothing's the 665 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: Plans winning. And I was so happy for David Culley. 666 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 1: I tried to get him when he came into the 667 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:26,279 Speaker 1: interview room to talk about how much it meant for him. 668 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 1: To win in his home state, Sparta, Tennessee's two not 669 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:34,600 Speaker 1: quite two hours from Nashville, played quarterback at Vanderbilt. He 670 00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 1: had family and friends at the game, but he wanted 671 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,640 Speaker 1: to talk about the players, and I thought he might 672 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 1: have gotten a game ball. He asked Tyrod Taylor, how 673 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 1: come he to get a game ball? And he said, well, 674 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:49,880 Speaker 1: the leadership council will be talking about something special for 675 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:53,719 Speaker 1: a coach Cully. But you know it meant a lot 676 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:55,399 Speaker 1: to him, and he'd been getting a lot of heat. 677 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 1: I was happy for him because you guys know that 678 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:02,239 Speaker 1: David Culley is a great I mean, he's honest, he's 679 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 1: upbeating is just a good man. I've been told that 680 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,440 Speaker 1: by people from everywhere he worked. So I was happy 681 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 1: for him, happy for the players, because nothing beats winning. 682 00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: You know, I get tired of him. Look at the 683 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:21,399 Speaker 1: saaras for negative adjectives. You'd think I know him by now. 684 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,880 Speaker 1: It was fun to write a positive story for the 685 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:28,719 Speaker 1: first time, says Jacksonville. And the New England was a 686 00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:32,240 Speaker 1: positive because of Davis Mills. And now with the Jets coming, 687 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 1: I think, like Culley has said, all along, you played 688 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,720 Speaker 1: a win. That's why they went back to tyrone. Nothing 689 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:43,319 Speaker 1: beats winning. And if you make your picks right, and 690 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,240 Speaker 1: you know what NICKT. Sarios never picked, ye, you wouldn't 691 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 1: know what to do with it anyway.
