1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,120
Speaker 1: It's going on. Everybody Welcome in two, a tgi F

2
00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 1: edition of Texans All Acts says, Yes, thank God it's

3
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 1: Friday and a beautiful Friday. It is may not be

4
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:15,880
Speaker 1: this way on Sunday. It looks like it might be

5
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,960
Speaker 1: the third game on the road where we will have

6
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:25,239
Speaker 1: driving rain. But you know, Jacksonville's a lot weatherwise like Houston.

7
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 1: It can change like that, and that's kind of what

8
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:32,839
Speaker 1: I'm hoping. I'm hoping because on this weekend twenty six

9
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 1: years ago, the weather was gorgeous. That's when I got married,

10
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 1: and I remembered every single day and it was awesome.

11
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 1: I mean, it was beautiful, seventy two degrees and sunny

12
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 1: the entire time. I don't think we'll get that on Sunday,

13
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 1: but yeah, so be it. Going to Jacksonville to go

14
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,200
Speaker 1: win a football game, no matter what the conditions are.

15
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 1: Appreciate you being here. I'm your host, John Harris, Football Animals,

16
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 1: sideline reporter for your Houston Texans. Got plenty for you tonight.

17
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: We're gonna hear from Just and Britt. He had a

18
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,960
Speaker 1: great conversation with Deepe Situ our Deep Slent interview of

19
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,679
Speaker 1: the week. They had a lot to talk about. It's

20
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 1: gonna be interesting. A couple of things that Justin's going

21
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: to hit on. You'll hear that a little bit later

22
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 1: in the second segment. You'll hear that. Then we got

23
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:20,479
Speaker 1: my keys to the game. And when you haven't played

24
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: a team in fourteen weeks, some of the keys are

25
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: the same, some not so much. So all have my

26
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: keys to the game. Then we will have Brandon Cooks

27
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 1: on the show doing a little Drews dozen. Now we

28
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 1: Mark and I get an opportunity to speak with Brandy Cooks.

29
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,839
Speaker 1: Every single Monday. He jumps on Texans Monday, never late,

30
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: always early, answers all of our questions, regardless win or lose.

31
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: Brandy Cooks is the best. Well, he is gonna be

32
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: on for a Drews dozen, then he is going to

33
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 1: be on for Drew Doherty's final word. So about about

34
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: a bank, got both Brandy Cooks gonna love it. Also

35
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 1: got my predictions for all games straight up and against

36
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 1: the spread. And this week is gonna be tricky. This

37
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:12,079
Speaker 1: week is brought to you by run DMC. It's tricky. Yeah,

38
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 1: it's gonna be very, very tricky. But my predictions are

39
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 1: actually brought to you by my friends at Caesar's Rewards,

40
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: and man, do I love me some Caesar's Rewards. And

41
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 1: if you work for the Texans, you know exactly what

42
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. I still gift from them today. So

43
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 1: Caesar's Rewards for every way you play, and these predictions

44
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 1: this week, Buddy man, goodness sakes alive. This is going

45
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: to be a wild week, and we'll get to the

46
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 1: news as it pertains to these games this week. There

47
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 1: was supposed to be two games Saturday twelve, sorry, thirteen

48
00:02:55,520 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: on Sunday, one on Monday. That's changed significantly, and we'll

49
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: get all that a little later in this first segment.

50
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: But it's Friday, less than forty eight hours away from

51
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: game time, so that means by rule, actually not even

52
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 1: by rule, because I want to David Culley, hey, coach

53
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: of your Houston Texon, sat down with Mark Vandimir to

54
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: talk about the Jacksonville Jaguars in week fifteen. Coach, tell

55
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,839
Speaker 1: me about how preparation has been for this one, with

56
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 1: the ramp up and protocols and everything like that. It's

57
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 1: something you're basically used to from the last couple of years,

58
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 1: But is it any different this week for you. All

59
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 1: of a sudden, Mark, it just happened that. Uh, just

60
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: all of a sudden it hit us. You know, normally

61
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 1: prior to that, we knew things were coming. Last year,

62
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: we all knew what the what the what the deal

63
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: was as far as what we had to get done,

64
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: and we got it done and it wasn't an issue.

65
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: This one kind of hit us. But we've been through

66
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: it before, Mark, So basically we've just they told us

67
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: to go virtual. So we're going virtual with our meetings

68
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 1: as we did all last year at the end of

69
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: the year, and practice on the field is just like

70
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: normal our The only thing is that we're just not

71
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 1: having the end person that we have normally been having

72
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: with our meetings. All right, Well, tell me about getting

73
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: ready for the Jags with their coaching change. How does

74
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,239
Speaker 1: that affect you? How do you predict things might play

75
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,280
Speaker 1: out as far as what they might try to do.

76
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 1: Will it be any different? I don't believe it'll be

77
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 1: any different. Mark, Again, it's the Jacksonville Jaguars. The offensive

78
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 1: coordinator is still there, the defensive coordinators still there. Those

79
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: guys were calling the plays prior to what happened down

80
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: there now and they'll be doing it again, So I

81
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 1: don't foresee anything changes. Haven't seen any changes from the

82
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 1: first time we've played them to the to now there

83
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 1: were planning them, which was the first game of the year.

84
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 1: I do know this, I really feel like that normally

85
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 1: when these things kind of happen, mark there comes a

86
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 1: sense of a coming together kind of moment. And I

87
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: believe when those kinds of things, when you when that happens,

88
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: I know I've been on that situation one time before myself,

89
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: and it's kind of like you're you're itching to go

90
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 1: out there to play. You're not worrying about all the

91
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: outside things that have been happening in the past with you,

92
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: and you go out there and there's basically a sense

93
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 1: of urgency and a sense of energy that you kind

94
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 1: of get back again. So I think it's very important

95
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 1: for us to understand to get off to a fast start,

96
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 1: to play our game, do the things that we have

97
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 1: to do, and go from there. Trevor Lawrence coach in

98
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 1: the first meeting through three touchdowns, but also it was

99
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 1: picked off three times and since then it's been kind

100
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 1: of a mixed bag. But he didn't get a couple

101
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 1: of wins along the way. What are you expecting out

102
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 1: of him this late in the season. Well, I expect

103
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 1: to get the best. You know, this kid has it

104
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: all Mark. Obviously, there's not a throw he can't make.

105
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,040
Speaker 1: He is a legitimate number one pick in the draft.

106
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 1: This kid's got a great future ahead of him, and

107
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 1: he's had some ups and downs, just like our guys

108
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: had some ups and downs, and hopefully we can keep

109
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 1: him on them some downs this week. But he is capable.

110
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: He is capable of putting up big numbers and putting

111
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: that football team in position to win, which he's done

112
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 1: twice already. What do you want to see from Davis

113
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 1: Mills this week, coach? As far as taking that next

114
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 1: step forward after that start that he got, being off

115
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 1: a few weeks and then coming back and playing pretty

116
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 1: well with the three hundred plus yards last week, Well,

117
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: the big thing is is him decision making. You know,

118
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 1: he took care of the ball. Obviously, we got to

119
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 1: continue to do that. You know, going into this game,

120
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 1: you're talking two rookie quarterbacks. Now, you know, guys that

121
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 1: are guys have gone through some ups and downs. One

122
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: guy started all year, the other guys started half of

123
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: the year. So basically, good decision making is the big thing,

124
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 1: and then the bottom line in the end, as we

125
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 1: tell our quarterbacks, Mark, the job is to get us

126
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 1: in the end zone. And you know, the big thing

127
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: is that we didn't do that in the second half

128
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: this past game, and hopefully we can get that changed. Well, coach,

129
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: thanks so much for joining us. Good luck against the Jaguars.

130
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 1: Thank you, Mark, appreciate it. Now. I don't know throughout

131
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: the league. I think everybody in the league is going

132
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: through this right now. I think the NFL put out

133
00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: protocols essentially in shore, putting everybody back on twenty twenty,

134
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 1: COVID rules, virtual meetings, masks for everybody in the facilities,

135
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 1: vaccinated or not, travel rules. I mean, we're going to Jacksonville.

136
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: I haven't seen my guy since twenty eighteen. I was

137
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 1: looking so forward to seeing all my former players. I

138
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: texted one of them and just said, hey, man, you see,

139
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 1: we get the group together and literally within two and

140
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 1: a half hours we found out that can't see anybody

141
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: from outside of the traveling party. But look, it is

142
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 1: what it is. There's not much you're gonna be able

143
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: to do to change that. Maybe you know, maybe there is,

144
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 1: and sports leagues are going to have to make some adjustments,

145
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 1: but what can you do at this point? This is

146
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: what the NFL put out. We follow those rules, and

147
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 1: trust me, I'm happy to do it. To be able

148
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 1: to play a season, I will do it, no doubt.

149
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: Whatever I gotta do, I wear a mask, fine, gotta play,

150
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 1: gotta stay hotel room, and I get there. Fine. I

151
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: am totally cool with any and all of that. Now,

152
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 1: let's get to some news as it pertains to the

153
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: injury report. One other transaction now from the Jaguars side,

154
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: this is not a horrible personnel week. Carlos Hide is

155
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 1: the only player Alguappo that's out. He's been he suffers

156
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: a concussion last week and he is out of this one.

157
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:37,440
Speaker 1: Now for your Texans, Justin Reid, as it was announced

158
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 1: earlier today by coach Culley, Justin Reid is out. He's

159
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 1: the only one out at this point. He was a

160
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 1: DNP all week. He's been dealing with concussion. Hopefully Justin

161
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: is gonna be able to come back next week for

162
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: the day after Christmas game against the Los Angeles Chargers,

163
00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,680
Speaker 1: because we're going to need him in that one. No

164
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: doubt definitely need him on this week, but can't do

165
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,440
Speaker 1: anything about it due to the concussion. Brevin Jordan has

166
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 1: been dealing with the hand issue and he had been

167
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: practicing in a limited capacity, but on Friday he did

168
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 1: not participate at all. He is questionable. So Brevin Jordan questionable.

169
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 1: Justin Reid out now. One other player that coach was

170
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 1: asked about was Rex Burkhead, and he gave a little

171
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: bit of a surprising answer when asked, well, coach, you

172
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 1: running back, you're gonna have Royce Freeman and David Johnson

173
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 1: because Rex Burkhead's gonna be out right and he said, no, no,

174
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 1: we're not totally ruling Rex out. Well, as expected from

175
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 1: those comments, today a practice Rex was limited and he

176
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 1: is questionable for this game. Linebacker Kevin Pierre lewis dealing

177
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,079
Speaker 1: with a couple of items of hamstring and a wrist.

178
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: He is also questionable. He missed KPL last week playing

179
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:59,079
Speaker 1: He will be vital because the Texans are down a

180
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 1: few linebackers now, Justin britt Farrell, Brown, and Tyrod Taylor

181
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 1: all four participants. Their game status is not in question

182
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:14,319
Speaker 1: at this point. Now, from a transaction standpoint, the Texans

183
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: put another player on the COVID nineteen reserve list. That

184
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 1: would be starting right guard Justin McCrae. So Terrence Mitchell,

185
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 1: Terrence Brooks in the secondary COVID nineteen reserve list, Justin

186
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 1: Reid out with the concussion linebackers Comu Gruge Hill, Christian

187
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 1: Kirksey both out with our should say out on the

188
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen reserve list. Justin McCray starting right guard COVID

189
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 1: nineteen reserve list. Jaylen Samuels was put under COVID nineteen

190
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 1: reserve list. I think Kravon LeBlanc was put onto COVID

191
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 1: nineteen reserve list. But here is here is the kicker,

192
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 1: if you will, in that situation. Because of what has

193
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 1: transpired throughout the NFL, the high number of COVID positive tests,

194
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 1: the NFL changed one vital rule. Prior to this change,

195
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: if you were vaccinated, the rule was, if you were vaccinated,

196
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: you needed to have two negative tests, but those tests

197
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: had to be twenty four hours apart. They changed the rule,

198
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,439
Speaker 1: took out the timing of that. You still need two

199
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:49,559
Speaker 1: negative tests, but they could essentially be back to back.

200
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 1: So if you walk in on I guess Saturday afternoon

201
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 1: or Sunday morning, and you test negative. From my understanding,

202
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 1: you can tell again in a thirty minutes to an

203
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: hour later, I guess and get a negative. There's your

204
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 1: two negatives. The twenty four hour rule essentially is removed,

205
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: so if you are asymptomatic and vaccinated, you can then

206
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 1: get off that COVID reserve list. It is happening in Cleveland.

207
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: I think two or three players have come off the

208
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: reserve list, that COVID nineteen reserve list. So those players

209
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 1: that I mentioned that are on the COVID nineteen reserve

210
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:39,719
Speaker 1: list are not completely ruled out because they're all vaccinated.

211
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 1: They can still get those two negative tests. Now, given

212
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 1: the fact that it is a road game, I don't

213
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 1: know how that changes the timing of things. Do they

214
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 1: have to pass those tests prior to the plane leaving,

215
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: once the plane leaves doesn't matter, or can they get

216
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:00,840
Speaker 1: on a private plane and go. I don't know. There's

217
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 1: a lot that goes into it that I'm not totally

218
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 1: sure of. I just know that COVID nineteen has continued

219
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:14,960
Speaker 1: to run rampant through this particular organization, and they're not

220
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:16,959
Speaker 1: the only ones. There are plenty of teams that this

221
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:21,200
Speaker 1: is happening too in some way way worse. But Texans

222
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 1: have gotten hit with the rash of them. But again,

223
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 1: those players not ruled out completely because they can still

224
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 1: get to that testing threshold of negatives. First of all,

225
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 1: just making sure that everybody's healthy is the most important thing.

226
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 1: So we will certainly keep our eyes peeled for that information.

227
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 1: I know when we get on a flight on Saturday

228
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,080
Speaker 1: or any Saturday for that matter, but it just always happens.

229
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 1: When we got into flight, we get and we get

230
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 1: an email from Omar and our PR team, who does

231
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 1: a great job. Those love those guys, I mean just

232
00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 1: absolutely love everything Omar Ever Jackson Lindsay everybody in PR

233
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 1: does for us. Sam and Brooke are interns. I mean

234
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 1: they're just they're fantastic. They do such a great job.

235
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 1: But typically they send us an email and it says, hey,

236
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: this person's not making a trip. This person's not making

237
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 1: a trip. I would imagine there will be some transactions

238
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: that will happen on Saturday, so keep your eyes peeled.

239
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 1: Houston Texans on Twitter at Houston Texans. I think that's

240
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 1: what it is on Twitter, and it's one of those things.

241
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 1: I don't know that I could ever name anybody's Twitter handle.

242
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 1: It's kind of like your cell phone. There are so

243
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: few cell phones that I know. I just know where

244
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 1: to find the name in my little directory. Same kind

245
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: of thing. Follow Texans on Twitter. You probably have already

246
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 1: have it there, so check that there'll be information. I

247
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 1: would imagine that comes out as it pertains to some

248
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: of the COVID nineteen cases. If there's no news, well

249
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 1: the Texas are gonna be down pretty significant number of guys.

250
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: But there will be transactions, no doubt, because guys will

251
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 1: have to move up for the practice squad to fill

252
00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 1: those spots, to keep things moving in the right direction.

253
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 1: And oh boy, this is a crazy, crazy, crazy time

254
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 1: of year. Now how much more crazy does it get? Well,

255
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 1: let's let's take a look, shall we. The NFL put

256
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: out a notice today because there were large, significant outbreaks

257
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 1: in certain places throughout the league, Cleveland being one of them,

258
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: the rams LA. It's been all over the place. So

259
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: the NFL decided to make some changes. They moved some

260
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 1: games back and moved some games around. So here is

261
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 1: the new schedule. And this was supposed to be two

262
00:15:55,480 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 1: games Saturday, thirteen on Sunday, one on Monday. It now

263
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 1: turns into one on Saturday, two, four, six, eight ten

264
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 1: on Sunday two Monday to Tuesday. Now, if this weren't

265
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 1: a COVID situation, I would look at this and go,

266
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: I kind of like it. I kind of like it.

267
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: You're telling me, I get Bowl games and FCS playoffs

268
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 1: on Saturday, football takeover dot com, and then you've got

269
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 1: a game Saturday, a huge game Patriotsich Colts. Then you

270
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 1: got a full day Sunday of NFL. Then you've got

271
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 1: two games Monday, two games Tuesday. Are you kidding me?

272
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: That's fantastic. Now, the reason for it is not fantastic.

273
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 1: But here's what's moved. Because of the outbreak in Cleveland.

274
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 1: The Raiders Browns game that was gonna be Sunday at

275
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: one one local I think it's Eastern time, So one

276
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,919
Speaker 1: local has been moved to Monday at five o'clock, and

277
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: that game is gonna be an NFL network. So Raiders

278
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 1: at Browns moves. Now. There was a lot of consternation

279
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: from the Raiders. The Raiders were twenty minutes away, apparently

280
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,480
Speaker 1: from getting on the buses and going to their plane

281
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,720
Speaker 1: to leave for Cleveland because it's a body clock situation.

282
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 1: It's a West Coast team that is playing on East

283
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,639
Speaker 1: Coast time zone. A lot of times those teams will

284
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 1: go on Friday, so their bodies have a chance to

285
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 1: adjust because they're playing an early game. And so that's

286
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 1: what the Raiders were doing. The Raiders were leaving today

287
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 1: and about twenty minutes beforehand, they're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,

288
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 1: don't get on the plane. We're gonna move this game.

289
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,880
Speaker 1: So the Raiders were a little disappointed, and I can

290
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: then justifiably. So. I mean, you've been ramping up for

291
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,439
Speaker 1: Sunday and it's like, no, no, you're not going. You're

292
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 1: playing the next day. So that's that's how happening. I

293
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: don't know if hey, you say what you will, did

294
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,919
Speaker 1: it work? Does it work? It sounds like there are

295
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 1: a few Browns that may end up testing negative and

296
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,159
Speaker 1: give it some extra time. Maybe they can get more

297
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:18,000
Speaker 1: of those guys back, whatever the case might be. I

298
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 1: know the Raiders were mad, but if that game got canceled,

299
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 1: everybody lost game checks. So games gonna be played Monday

300
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,639
Speaker 1: early evening, five o'clock Eastern. So I'll be four o'clock

301
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 1: local NFL network. Two other games got moved because the

302
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:36,359
Speaker 1: outbreaks with the Rams and with the Washington football team.

303
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 1: Those games got moved to Tuesday. So the Seattle Seahawks

304
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 1: were traveling to take onto La Rams, and the Washington

305
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,320
Speaker 1: football team is traveling to take on the Philadelphia Eagles. Now,

306
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:52,399
Speaker 1: both of those games will be at six pm Central

307
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,640
Speaker 1: Time and they're both on Fox, So I would imagine

308
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 1: we get one of those and they'll both be available

309
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,400
Speaker 1: on day ticket, which is kind of interesting, but you'll

310
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 1: be able to see Seahawks, Rams, Washington football team at

311
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles. So actually two big division games get

312
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 1: moved to Tuesday. Makes it tough to turn around then

313
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 1: play a game the following Sunday. But things are what

314
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 1: they are. They're getting games played. We've had no postponements

315
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 1: or movement of games. But because of the cases, the

316
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 1: rising number of cases and then the players testing positive

317
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 1: in particular outbreaks in Cleveland in LA with the Rams

318
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 1: and the Washington football team, those three games get moved.

319
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 1: That Raiders Browns game, I'm check that the Raiders Browns

320
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,880
Speaker 1: are supposed to play on Saturday along with the Patriots

321
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 1: and the Colts. That's why they're leaving today. That makes

322
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 1: more sense. So that gets moved from Saturday to Monday.

323
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 1: The Seahawks Rams, the Washington football team, and the like.

324
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,640
Speaker 1: The Washington football team is picking nick name police, they've

325
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,400
Speaker 1: got it. Please here, it's coming, but just just make

326
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 1: pick pick dag um name. So the Washington football team

327
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: and the Eagles moved to Tuesday. So we have football tonight.

328
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:15,359
Speaker 1: College two massive games, bowl game and FCS playoff game.

329
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 1: That's gonna be awesome. It's one of you can put

330
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,639
Speaker 1: it up there against any game this week. Jam you

331
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:26,119
Speaker 1: at North Dakota State FCS playoffs, It's gonna be awesome. Saturday,

332
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,120
Speaker 1: you got five bowl games. You got the other FCS playoffs.

333
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:32,360
Speaker 1: South Dakota State at Montana State. Great game. Montana State

334
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 1: knocked off sam Uson State last week so Montana State

335
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 1: could play. They got some dudes. Troy Anderson's the linebacker

336
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 1: I would love to see in Houston. Sixty five runs

337
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:45,399
Speaker 1: like a deer and just an absolute stud. So you

338
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 1: got those six college games Saturday. Then you cap it

339
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: off with Patriots Colts. You got a full day after

340
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 1: the Texas beat the Jags. You got afternoon games, you

341
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 1: got the Sunday night games Saints at Bucks, then you

342
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 1: got to Monday night, and you got to Tuesday night.

343
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, now, that's football nirvana. A football

344
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,679
Speaker 1: nerd like me absolutely loves all that. But schedule changes

345
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 1: taking place because of things going on with COVID nineteen. Yeah,

346
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 1: I hate saying those words. I really do hate saying

347
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 1: those words. But what can you do about it. It's

348
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 1: still around here. It's still an endemic now. I mean,

349
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 1: we're gonna be dealing with it for a long long time,

350
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:33,879
Speaker 1: and as I said earlier, the sports league's gonna have

351
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,440
Speaker 1: to figure out how they deal with this a little

352
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 1: bit better, whether it's booster shots, whether it's change in testing.

353
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 1: There has been some back and forth amongst the leadership

354
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 1: of the NFLPA and the NFLPA. There are large number

355
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 1: of players that are pushing for no testing at all,

356
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: and the leadership of the NFLPA is like, na, I

357
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 1: don't think we should do that. So there's some conversations.

358
00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:01,439
Speaker 1: There are some things going on right now, and obviously

359
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 1: the league has moved these games, postpone these games for

360
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 1: a few days to be able to get them in

361
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 1: and hopefully we can squelch some of this that's going on.

362
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 1: But it looks like the advanced protocols, I think that's

363
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,959
Speaker 1: what they're called, advanced protocols or intense protocols, whatever it is,

364
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 1: are going to stick around for the teams throughout the

365
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:27,879
Speaker 1: remainder of the year. Those stink, but is what it is.

366
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 1: If it helps us play football, everybody can do what

367
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,160
Speaker 1: they're supposed to do, play ball on Sunday, do their

368
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 1: work throughout the week, zoom meetings. We've done it before,

369
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 1: we'll do it again. Just you want to get back

370
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 1: to some sort of normalcy. We sort of had it

371
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,639
Speaker 1: for a while, but this outbreak pushed us back to

372
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 1: this sort of thing, and you deal with it. You

373
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 1: absolutely deal with it. A guy that's dealt with plenty

374
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: throughout his career, including an injury that slowed him throughout

375
00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:00,719
Speaker 1: all of twenty twenty, and essentially they put him here

376
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 1: in Houston and we love that aspect of it, and

377
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:05,880
Speaker 1: he's bounced back and been very very good this year

378
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 1: for the Texans, and that centered Justin Britt. It's Deep

399
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 1: We missed you for a few games there on. Ir

400
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 1: How does it feel to be back and playing again.

401
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 1: It's what I want to do. I didn't want to

402
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,159
Speaker 1: do that. I saw this year going kind of different

403
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,400
Speaker 1: with my health. But I'm back to doing what I do.

404
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 1: I'm feeling great, so excited, and just a few games

405
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 1: back and you get to face your former team, which

406
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,400
Speaker 1: there's a lot of players that they have to wait

407
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 1: years before they face a team that they played with

408
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 1: for as long as you did. Was it kind of

409
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 1: nice to get that out of the way. What was

410
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 1: it like to face your former team and I saw

411
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 1: you afterwards, just all the guys coming up and talking

412
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 1: to you after the game. Yeah, I thought it was

413
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,440
Speaker 1: really cool. It was a fun week prepping for them,

414
00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 1: kind of knowing who they are and they do. You know,

415
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,240
Speaker 1: I practice against them my whole career, so to be

416
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 1: able to kind of play against him was cool because

417
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,440
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, game and practice is a whole

418
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,359
Speaker 1: different world. So they fly around, they compete. Um, I

419
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 1: felt like we did the same, and you know, I

420
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,719
Speaker 1: thought I thought we had him till late. So it

421
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 1: was it was a fun game and I feel like

422
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 1: a weight kind of been lifted off me and just

423
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,439
Speaker 1: getting it out of the way early on revenge or

424
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:26,160
Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it. I didn't really view

425
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: it that way, but I did want to play them.

426
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 1: I like that you said your approach was the same,

427
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: that you you woke up the same time on game day,

428
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 1: you did everything the same during the week. You knew

429
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:37,120
Speaker 1: you were going to get into a bar fight with them,

430
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:38,920
Speaker 1: but it didn't really change your mood. Is that sort

431
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 1: of how you are in real life? You're just even keel,

432
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 1: because it seems like when you're on the field, you're

433
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,920
Speaker 1: a different a different person. You're obviously the football player

434
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,399
Speaker 1: in U games out um, I think so. I feel like,

435
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 1: for the most part, I'm pretty stress free through life.

436
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:56,159
Speaker 1: You know. I feel like I'm a strong emotional person,

437
00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 1: and so on game day I kind of act emotionally

438
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 1: in some regard. But I feel like I play better

439
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,160
Speaker 1: when I'm calm, when I'm poised, and so I try

440
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 1: to just stay in that world, that realm and try

441
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,119
Speaker 1: not to overdo or overthink things, just keep everything. And

442
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 1: that's kind of the way I was kind of raised

443
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 1: by Pete Carolyn and the Seahawks. Is every week is

444
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 1: the same week, approach it the same week a championship mindset,

445
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 1: because if you treat every game that way, where it's

446
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 1: a championship game week one to week eighteen now, then

447
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 1: by the time you get in the playoffs and you

448
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 1: know these crucial moments, your mind is already prepared for it.

449
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 1: It's it's practice being in that moment because you approach

450
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,400
Speaker 1: every game that way. It's that makes sense because you've

451
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,199
Speaker 1: had a lot of changes around you, even on this

452
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,639
Speaker 1: old line throughout the year, the guards have changed, the

453
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:47,679
Speaker 1: old line has changed so much. How much has that

454
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,159
Speaker 1: approach helped you with just all the changes around you?

455
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 1: Do you change how you play center based on who's

456
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,639
Speaker 1: next you? Or are you pretty much the same no

457
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 1: matter who's around you? Mostly the same, but some ends

458
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: and out it's how they fit blocks. Everyone's different. And

459
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,919
Speaker 1: so I feel like Coach Camping and Googler, you know,

460
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 1: the online coaches have done a really good job since OTA's,

461
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 1: you know, mixing up the lineup and forcing us to

462
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 1: work with each other and just kind of jelling because

463
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,399
Speaker 1: we know in the NFL, especially up front, you know,

464
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 1: things can happen. M He likes to say camp likes

465
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,400
Speaker 1: to say someone has a shoelace problem, someone else has

466
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: to go in and so you've got to be ready

467
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:29,960
Speaker 1: to adapt and you know, work together and that jets accordingly. Oh,

468
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,359
Speaker 1: how did you have you adapted with a rookie? And

469
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 1: Davis Mills? I asked him the other day. He said

470
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 1: that the quarterbacks and the centers they meet throughout the

471
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 1: week and that's sort of what helps the chemistry and

472
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 1: you guys sort of developed that communication. But how's that

473
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 1: been for you so far throughout the course of the year. Um,

474
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 1: it's been no problem. Whether it's been Tyrodo or Davis.

475
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,520
Speaker 1: The preparation has been the same. And the trust has

476
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 1: to be there, because without that you kind of have nothing.

477
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:56,160
Speaker 1: So you just recognize that Davis has been here, he's

478
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,520
Speaker 1: been brought here for a reason for his abilities, and

479
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 1: kind of just trust that and make sure that I

480
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 1: do my job and I'm not really worrying about his job.

481
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,160
Speaker 1: We're just trying to work together, all right. Speaking of rookies,

482
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 1: I had Farrell Brown on the Player Show a few

483
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 1: weeks ago, which you've done. I actually heard that while

484
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:12,959
Speaker 1: I was driving you did you were listening to the

485
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 1: Texans Player show. I started my car, and that's what

486
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 1: I was listening. I was like to know that voice.

487
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:21,200
Speaker 1: Did you hear what he said about your old line room? No,

488
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 1: I must have been selling. Okay. So he was telling

489
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 1: us about how all the rookies have to decorate their

490
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:30,240
Speaker 1: position group rooms and he was very very envious of

491
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: the job that the old line I guess who it

492
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 1: must be, Jimmy Morrisey is Jimmy Morrissey and Carson Green? Okay,

493
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 1: the job that they did decorating your O line room,

494
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: He said that Rev and Jordan, really it wasn't It

495
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 1: wasn't a great decorating job by him. What defense? He

496
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: is the only rookie in that room. We do have too.

497
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 1: He is a draft pick though, so I heard that

498
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 1: that also elevates the expectation a little bit. Your pockets

499
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 1: are a little bigger. Okay, but I feel like we

500
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 1: spend so much time in our position room throughout the

501
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 1: year that we wanted to be festive and we wanted

502
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 1: to be enjoyable to be there. And so yeah, we

503
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,920
Speaker 1: got lights, we got what is that, Garland? Um, we

504
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 1: gotta we got a frosty and then uh, they call

505
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 1: that a dasher kind of blow up the inflatables in

506
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 1: the position room. Yeah, yeah, is it a big position room.

507
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 1: It is not a big blow up. It's probably the

508
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 1: smaller size. Okay, But um, we're big people, so we

509
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 1: do need it, right, I mean, I imagine there's not

510
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 1: a lot of space. Yeah. He did mention snowman and

511
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 1: and and inflatables in the room, and I thought he

512
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:36,320
Speaker 1: was exaggerating. But it sounds like Jimmy Morrisey and Carson

513
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:39,000
Speaker 1: Green a lot of props for the decorating they've done

514
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,520
Speaker 1: so for they've done exception all right. How about for yourself.

515
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 1: You've got little kids, So what are the holidays like

516
00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 1: for you? You You have any good holiday traditions that you

517
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 1: do with your family. Well, the ELpH on the shelf

518
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 1: always visits. He's pretty cool and he moves around every

519
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 1: every every night he comes. He's a lot of work

520
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 1: to keep up with. Yeah, Um, we got lights up

521
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,720
Speaker 1: on the house. You know, we try try to do things,

522
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 1: but you know, it's a little hard with our schedule. Um,

523
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 1: we're pretty busy here. But uh, you know, hopefully we

524
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 1: get to spin Christmas morning and and have that special

525
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 1: moment with them. But for the most part, it's you know,

526
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 1: bring the spirit of Christmas to the kids and take

527
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 1: care of my job. How about for yourself, best gift

528
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 1: that you've ever gotten. I don't know. I like the

529
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 1: meaningful gifts, like like my my mother in law, my

530
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: wife's mom. A couple of years back, you know, road

531
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 1: games or home games, you go through security, they put

532
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 1: a tag on your bag. Sure, and so before you

533
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 1: could they you didn't have to take them off. And

534
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 1: so I had like fifty something tags. Oh you just

535
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 1: left them on your bag. Oh okay, And then they

536
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 1: came out with the rule that said you have to

537
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,200
Speaker 1: have only that week's tag on there. So that was

538
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 1: a kind of a sad moment because I was collecting

539
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 1: them and she took all those that I cut off

540
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 1: and made like a shadow box with him. Oh wow,

541
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 1: And I thought that was really really cool. That is,

542
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,360
Speaker 1: so you get to keep all the you know which,

543
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 1: all the stadiums that you've been too. Got the little

544
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: wristband from it all. Right. One of the first things

545
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 1: that I noticed, and I think a lot of people

546
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 1: notice about you when you got here, was that you

547
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: have a lot of tattoos. You're wearing long sleeves now,

548
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 1: but I wanted to ask you how many total tattoos

549
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 1: do you have? I don't know. It's kind of both.

550
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 1: My sleeves are done, I have my chest tattooed, and

551
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,000
Speaker 1: what tattooed on my ankles? So I guess the would

552
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:24,400
Speaker 1: be like one do you comput as one? Is it multiple?

553
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 1: Did it take? How many years has has been going on? So?

554
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,200
Speaker 1: I had my chest in my upper left arm done

555
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 1: in college, and then after my rookie year, I was like,

556
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 1: this is going to be a career. So in tattoos,

557
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 1: I sleeved down my left side and then last year

558
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 1: I didn't play and that gave me an opportunity to

559
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 1: sleeve on my right arm. So okay, because I was

560
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 1: going to ask you what your most recent tattoo is,

561
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 1: would it be the right sleeve? Yes? And these are

562
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 1: offseason projects you do. I'm kind of the impatient person,

563
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 1: so I'm very bad at coming up with ideas how

564
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 1: I want to express myself. But once it happens and

565
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 1: I get it, I'm like, I have to get the

566
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 1: tattoo now. Oh okay. So it's kind of spur of

567
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 1: the momentum. I had an idea. I texted my guy

568
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 1: and we collabed, came up with something, and then kind

569
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:12,000
Speaker 1: of did it in the next few weeks. So I

570
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 1: guess I can't really ask you what the next tattoo

571
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 1: is because maybe you're not you're not inspired yet, or

572
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 1: do you have an idea of when or what it

573
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 1: might be. I know, I know, I want to work

574
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 1: on my legs. I don't know what I want. You

575
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 1: don't have any tattoos right now. You don't have any

576
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 1: tattoos on your legs. Okay, Oh, are we gonna go

577
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 1: full pant legs? I mean, I don't know. I don't know.

578
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 1: It sounds really painful, but you've got some time. I mean,

579
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:37,120
Speaker 1: while you're playing, you could just st commitments. I don't

580
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 1: want to huge. Yeah, literally, you that's a lot of

581
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: area to cover. Yeah. Um, all right. When we had

582
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 1: you on the Players Show, you told me a story

583
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 1: in passing and I have not stopped thinking about it since,

584
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 1: and I thought, if I got you back, I was

585
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 1: going to ask you about it. You said you were

586
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 1: a DJ in college. Were you a music DJ or

587
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 1: you worked at a radio station? Yeah? Yeah? Every Tuesday

588
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 1: up there for two years during the season, I would

589
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 1: go to the local radio station this is when you're

590
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 1: with the Seahawks, right, And they would play music, but

591
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 1: in between the songs, like the commercials would be my

592
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 1: time to talk and it would just be Um, I

593
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 1: was just kind of hosting it. I got the interview

594
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 1: post him alone one time. That's what I could not

595
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:21,959
Speaker 1: stop in the studio and there were you an interview him?

596
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:23,959
Speaker 1: And I'm like, yes, was he? Did you know who

597
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:27,840
Speaker 1: he was? Was he back then? This was shortly after

598
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,960
Speaker 1: his white iverson Oh okay and all that. He still

599
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 1: had the braids and um, the no tattoos. So it

600
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:38,280
Speaker 1: was pretty cool. But I've mainly just hosted the show

601
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 1: and hit the button to play music, and you know,

602
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 1: I would take a call here and there. So were

603
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 1: you by yourself in the radio studio? I mean I

604
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 1: had the guy who actually produced the radio station. Okay,

605
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,959
Speaker 1: you would kind of, but you were you were the host,

606
00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 1: You were the talent on the air. I guess. So

607
00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:55,959
Speaker 1: did you like doing that? Do you think you'd go

608
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 1: do a career in radio? Would you think about that? Um? Well,

609
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,360
Speaker 1: it was cool. Are you into music? I am, but

610
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: not in not regard. But it was cool to experience

611
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,360
Speaker 1: that and be in that environment because I feel like

612
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 1: it's made me more comfortable in a different way with

613
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 1: like doing media and interviews and just having to use

614
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,800
Speaker 1: my voice. Were you nervous before you did that gig?

615
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:18,959
Speaker 1: I just didn't know what to do. So you feel

616
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:20,880
Speaker 1: like it's helped you in like a setting like this,

617
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:22,960
Speaker 1: if you're more comfortable now, if I did it again,

618
00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:27,120
Speaker 1: I could do it better. Really. Yeah, any other famous

619
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:30,239
Speaker 1: guests that you had back then? No, that was then.

620
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:32,920
Speaker 1: It wasn't like a guest show. Actually I had a

621
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,480
Speaker 1: couple of teammates, but it wasn't like a show. You

622
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 1: had guests, and when you did it would be asked

623
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: questions and then we would just kind of jam it

624
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:44,279
Speaker 1: into a commercial, okay, and then music would play and

625
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:48,719
Speaker 1: then you fill in another question. So very cool stuff. Okay,

626
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 1: So you said that in passing, I thought I got

627
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,000
Speaker 1: to ask him about this again because there was no contact.

628
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,040
Speaker 1: You literally said you interviewed post malone, and then you

629
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 1: walked out of the room, and I was like, this

630
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:58,400
Speaker 1: is a horrible way to end a story. Have so

631
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,840
Speaker 1: many follow up questions justin it's been a pleasure. What

632
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 1: about for you for the rest of the season. What

633
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 1: are some things that you want to work on or

634
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 1: some goals for yourself through this final stretch. Well, I

635
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,399
Speaker 1: want to finish the year healthy. I want to finish year.

636
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:12,840
Speaker 1: It'd be great to finish the years been nothing but

637
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: wins and so I mean, obviously it's our goal and

638
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 1: we'll head into each week that way. But come out healthy,

639
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 1: keep building these relationships, and just keep getting better at football.

640
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,279
Speaker 1: I think those are great goals. Justin a pleasure, best

641
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 1: elect through the rest of the season. Thank you appreciate.

642
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:31,840
Speaker 1: It did take long for Justin Britt to be in

643
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 1: our building to see the impact he has had on

644
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,160
Speaker 1: this team, and hopefully he continues to be around. I

645
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,239
Speaker 1: really like what he has done. And fun interview too,

646
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:45,279

00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 1: gonna do it? Well, I'm glad you asked queue up

679
00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 1: my music. It's time for my keys to the game.

680
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:51,160
Speaker 1: So here we go. We play the Jaguars Week one,

681
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 1: right here and Energy Stadium. It was a glorious day.

682
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:57,759
Speaker 1: Texans ended up walking out of there with thirty seven

683
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 1: twenty one win one and oh four hundred forty nine

684
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:04,280
Speaker 1: yards a total offense. I mean, it was a fun day.

685
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:08,920
Speaker 1: Picked off Trevor Lawrence three times. My math is correct,

686
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,040
Speaker 1: just three n one Vern Hargraves, I wanted there was

687
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 1: one other. There's three interceptions if I remember correctly, maybe

688
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:18,920
Speaker 1: a fumble. Anyway, Texans turned over the Jags. Texans did

689
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 1: not turn the ball over. It was a great, great win.

690
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:30,600
Speaker 1: That was fourteen weeks ago. A lot has changed for starters,

691
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:38,320
Speaker 1: literally starters offensively. There will be three offensive starters depending

692
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 1: on how the tight ends wide receiver thing works out.

693
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 1: There's three offensive starters that start in Week one that

694
00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:48,840
Speaker 1: will start a week fifteen three. Now, if you start

695
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:52,440
Speaker 1: Antonio Claire and Farrell Brown, which could happen, that'd be

696
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 1: five three. Two of them are playing the same position,

697
00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 1: Justin britt Brandon Cooks. The other one, Titus Howard is starting,

698
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 1: but he's played a different position defensively with all the

699
00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:08,360
Speaker 1: If if everybody who's on COVID the COVID reserve that

700
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 1: stays onto the COVID reserve list, and Justin Reid is

701
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:18,480
Speaker 1: out with the concussion, you're gonna have one front seventh

702
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:25,840
Speaker 1: player and one secondary member. That's it. So fourteen weeks

703
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 1: things have changed significantly. So how the Texas is gonna

704
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:33,719
Speaker 1: go go to w against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Well, let's

705
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:35,759
Speaker 1: take a look to the Jaguars offense. First, it's led

706
00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:38,480
Speaker 1: by Trevor Lawrence and stopping the greatest year for Lawrence

707
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:41,040
Speaker 1: as a rookie. He lose a game at Clipsed in

708
00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:44,040
Speaker 1: the regular season. He's lost eleven he has and the

709
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 1: Jaguars have and we knew that was gonna happen. He

710
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,480
Speaker 1: knew it was gonna happen. But what can the Texans

711
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 1: do to make sure he gets lost number twelve? Well,

712
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 1: number one, continue to show Lawrence different looks. It's man,

713
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:02,960
Speaker 1: it's own, No, it's drop eight. Oh, either bringing six. Oh,

714
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:07,600
Speaker 1: they're bringing five. Oh, they're showing six, dropping three. There's

715
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 1: all different kind of things you can do to continue

716
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 1: to show a different picture to the rookie. Now it's

717
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,839
Speaker 1: Daryl Bevill still there as the offense coordinator, but now

718
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:17,360
Speaker 1: he's the interim head coach. So he's gonna have a

719
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:20,840
Speaker 1: lot of his plate. So how focused he's gonna be

720
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:22,960
Speaker 1: on just the offense. One of the things you can

721
00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 1: do to make life miserable for Trevor Lawrence. You've got

722
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:30,080
Speaker 1: to find those things to consistently change his looks. It

723
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:33,400
Speaker 1: may not get you three picks again, but hopefully it

724
00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:36,960
Speaker 1: disrupts Lawrence's timing and rhythm and the receivers, and that

725
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:39,399
Speaker 1: would be a good thing. The Jaguars run game has

726
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:43,239
Speaker 1: just gone AOL, totally completely gone, and teams have had

727
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:47,000
Speaker 1: success against the Texans the last few weeks running the rock.

728
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,880
Speaker 1: They will run the ball. If there's anything I can

729
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:52,759
Speaker 1: imagine they would do a lot, it's gonna give James.

730
00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:54,919
Speaker 1: They're gonna give James Robinson the ball. There's been so

731
00:40:55,000 --> 00:41:00,239
Speaker 1: much talk about it. They had eight runs last week eight.

732
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:04,520
Speaker 1: That's it. They'll double that and then some the Texans

733
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 1: run fits were awful against Seattle. They got to change that.

734
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:09,879
Speaker 1: And then for the Jaguars, they got to figure out

735
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 1: who's the new Jamal Agnew. Wou Jamal Agnew came into

736
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:16,000
Speaker 1: game Week one. I noticed all the defensive players, but

737
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 1: the Texas were pointing him out, like there he is,

738
00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:20,960
Speaker 1: there he is. They don't have that guy anymore. They

739
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:24,960
Speaker 1: don't even have DJ Chark. Who is the new Agnew?

740
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:27,319
Speaker 1: The Texas got to sniff that out and slow him

741
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:31,520
Speaker 1: down defensively. The Jaguars will blitz, and will blitz heavily,

742
00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 1: even more than they did in Week one. Joe Colin

743
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 1: has kind of found his footing. He's out of the

744
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:38,759
Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens tree. He spent four five years. There's the

745
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:43,319
Speaker 1: line coach. He will bring heat and when gassed up.

746
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 1: Davis Mills has got to get the ball to his

747
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:47,400
Speaker 1: check downs. He's got to get the ball of his

748
00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:51,000
Speaker 1: hands and he cannot take hits number two. They gotta

749
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 1: find a way to stop Miles Jack number forty four.

750
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,760
Speaker 1: I think he's one of the best linebackers in the NFL.

751
00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:59,120
Speaker 1: But he can be a hot head, so if you

752
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 1: occupy him, you knock him down a bit. I could

753
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:05,160
Speaker 1: take him off his game number three. There's been a

754
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:07,319
Speaker 1: lot of problems for the Jaguars this year, but they

755
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:09,480
Speaker 1: don't turn teams over. They have six takeaways. That's it.

756
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:13,319
Speaker 1: So ball security don't give him anything. Don't give him

757
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 1: any gifts like they did to the Texas last year.

758
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 1: We didn't turn teams over either, but they turn it

759
00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 1: over in that game, and those turnovers ended up being

760
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 1: a big thing for the Texas getting to win last year.

761
00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:27,759
Speaker 1: Ball security, don't give them any gifts and you'll have

762
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,040
Speaker 1: a great opportunity to walk out of there with a

763
00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:33,600
Speaker 1: w All right, that's one hour down in our second hour.

764
00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 1: I want to start with Brandy Cooks, a little Trews,

Speaker 1: It's just a really nice night in December. Now, look

770
00:42:54,760 --> 00:43:00,080

771
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:03,759
Speaker 1: break out the coach, I mean Houstonians. I mean he

772
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:06,080
Speaker 1: gets a little sixty. We just rushed to get all

773
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 1: those winter clothes that we bought on sale back in

774
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:11,320
Speaker 1: the spring. We have to break all that out for

775
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 1: the first time, and then we get it for one

776
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:16,480
Speaker 1: day and then that's it. Then he goes back to

777
00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:21,799
Speaker 1: being eighty or eighty five. Oh, it's crazy, but either way,

778
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 1: hopefully you guys are having a nice night, and I

779
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:28,160
Speaker 1: appreciate you being here with me. I'm John Harris, football analyst,

780
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:33,040
Speaker 1: sideline reporter, and on every Monday, I'm the co host

781
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 1: of Texas Monday, alongside the Voice of Texas Mark Vanimir,

782
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:40,000
Speaker 1: where we are lucky enough to chat with Brandon Cooks

783
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 1: at about eight o five, eight o seven, somewhere in

784
00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:48,680
Speaker 1: that range. He's always on time, always on time. In fact,

785
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:50,760
Speaker 1: there are times he's even a minute or two early.

786
00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:54,000
Speaker 1: But he's awesome. We love having him. I think he

787
00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:57,560
Speaker 1: has had a fantastic year. Amongst everything that has gone on,

788
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:01,080
Speaker 1: he's caught pastors from Tara Taylor, David's Mill quarterback change.

789
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:03,799
Speaker 1: I mean, it's everything for a receiver that you don't

790
00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:05,400
Speaker 1: really want to have. You want to have consistency, you

791
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:07,960
Speaker 1: wanta have the same guy you get and you have

792
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:10,799
Speaker 1: a synergy with that guy, and that just has been

793
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,680
Speaker 1: the case for Brandon. But yet he shows up every

794
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:18,319
Speaker 1: week and balls out. He's awesome, and I know he's

795
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:21,359
Speaker 1: gonna be awesome here even though Drew Dorty's not gonna

796
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:24,200
Speaker 1: talk any football that will be later in the show

797
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:29,040
Speaker 1: with Drew Dorty's final word. This is Drew's dozen. This

798
00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:33,440
Speaker 1: is where Drew asked no football questions, and it's one

799
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,520
Speaker 1: of my favorite times the entire week because Drew Dorty

800
00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:40,640
Speaker 1: is one of the most creative, smartest and funniest guys

801
00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 1: you're gonna find anywhere. So I can imagine this is

802
00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:47,560
Speaker 1: gonna be great. Drew Doughty with Brandon Cooks. It's Drew's dozen,

803
00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 1: Drew's dozen time with Brandon Cooks. And you've got an

804
00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:55,680
Speaker 1: awesome nickname, the Archer. We've seen the celebration bow and Arrow.

805
00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:58,759
Speaker 1: It's based off the biblical story about Ishmael. So with

806
00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:00,840
Speaker 1: that in mind, we got to talk about the five

807
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:02,719
Speaker 1: Archers that I'm gonna bring up, and you got to

808
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:05,600
Speaker 1: rank them. Okay, okay, you got Robin Hood, you got

809
00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:09,319
Speaker 1: Ishmael obviously in there, you got Cupid okay, and don't

Speaker 1: done portraits and like you know of people, but you've

858
00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:39,160
Speaker 1: done landscape stuff like in the mountains. Yeah. Like, have

859
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:41,960
Speaker 1: you you have a favorite of anything New Zealand? I

860
00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:43,799
Speaker 1: have to say the meal for a sound on my

861
00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:46,239
Speaker 1: trip with my wife and I to New Zealand was

862
00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:48,640
Speaker 1: probably one of my favorite shots. Yeah. Was that just

863
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:51,200
Speaker 1: the coolest trip you've ever taken in general photography aside

864
00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:53,239
Speaker 1: or have you been on an anywhere else? I have

865
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:56,680
Speaker 1: to say when we did Southeast Asian was pretty pretty special.

866
00:47:56,760 --> 00:48:00,000
Speaker 1: Hitting about seven eight countries there was was awesome. Vietnam

867
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:01,759
Speaker 1: almost probably at the top of my list. How come

868
00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:05,880
Speaker 1: just how humbled the people are so little that they have, Yeah,

869
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:07,440
Speaker 1: but what they make out of and they and the

870
00:48:07,560 --> 00:48:09,799
Speaker 1: joy that they have is is pretty special. And then

871
00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:12,400
Speaker 1: the landscape there is pretty incredible. We talk about how

872
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,560
Speaker 1: long Bay being able to swim swimming that was pretty cool. Yeah,

873
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:17,480
Speaker 1: it's a diverse landscape. Two, they got the mountains, they

874
00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:20,960
Speaker 1: got it all beaches. Yeah, that's that's really cool. Okay,

875
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:24,360
Speaker 1: there's there's football speed. You got that. There's track speed.

876
00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:26,440
Speaker 1: You got that too. You ran in college, you ran

877
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,280
Speaker 1: at Oregon State. You've married the two, You've got both.

878
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:32,839
Speaker 1: So you're running a four by one hundred relay? Are

879
00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:35,960
Speaker 1: you the anchor if it's if it's teammates here, yeah,

880
00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:39,080
Speaker 1: anchor or anchor or second anchor? Ish, so we'll say

881
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:40,920
Speaker 1: that anchor or second Who we're the other three on

882
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:43,960
Speaker 1: the four by one here? Philip durs say, okay, ay,

883
00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:46,480
Speaker 1: j Moore, Well, you know I take Lonnie because at

884
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:47,960
Speaker 1: the end of the day, every week it seemed like

885
00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:49,720
Speaker 1: you at the top of the leader board for miles

886
00:48:49,719 --> 00:48:52,040
Speaker 1: four hour or every game. Is that right? Yeah? Yeah,

887
00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:54,279
Speaker 1: he can roll, son of a gun. I didn't realize that.

888
00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 1: Did you enjoy going to track me? Like, not the

889
00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:59,480
Speaker 1: running necessarily, but just the shenanigans while you're waiting to run,

890
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:01,200
Speaker 1: and all the fun stuff like hanging out with people.

891
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:03,879
Speaker 1: It was It was probably one of the most nerve

892
00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,399
Speaker 1: wracking things actually, because you just waiting around. You're like, okay,

893
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:08,759
Speaker 1: when in my turn, and you know, and track is

894
00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:12,080
Speaker 1: it is just you against everybody. So the waiting anxiety

895
00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:15,640
Speaker 1: that the build up is kind of annoying. And I'm

896
00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:17,719
Speaker 1: guessing like when you were in high school because you

897
00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:20,319
Speaker 1: were so fast, you ran a few events and you

898
00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:22,840
Speaker 1: also probably were you doing any of the jumps too. No,

899
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:26,799
Speaker 1: I sucked at it. Okay, take that chance you were

900
00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:28,920
Speaker 1: going later because you were in the marquee events. You know,

901
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:31,400
Speaker 1: nerds like me. We're in the thirty two hundred right

902
00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:33,640
Speaker 1: off the bat and we're done. So that's all good.

903
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:37,239
Speaker 1: Christmas is coming. Favorite Christmas song that you just start

904
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:41,239
Speaker 1: singing when it comes onto the car this Christmas Chris Brown. Okay, yeah, yeah,

905
00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:47,440
Speaker 1: give me a bar na. No, it's Christmas. There we go. Yeah,

906
00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:49,000
Speaker 1: that's good. Most of you guys don't do it. I

907
00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:52,080
Speaker 1: I tricked you into do it. Sometimes it doesn't know

908
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:55,600
Speaker 1: what happened. What's the best Christmas gift you've ever received? Wow,

909
00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:58,520
Speaker 1: that's a that's a tough one. Is a tough one.

910
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:02,160
Speaker 1: I had to say. One of our brothers, my dad

911
00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:03,920
Speaker 1: passed when I was young. So one of my brothers

912
00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:07,440
Speaker 1: actually this past Christmas, when my son was born, he

913
00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:10,120
Speaker 1: got a portrait painting that my dad, and somehow the

914
00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:12,839
Speaker 1: artist was able to put my son in as if

915
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:16,279
Speaker 1: my son was looking at my dad. So that was beautiful, man.

916
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:18,800
Speaker 1: So that was last year. It was this year, this

917
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:21,640
Speaker 1: past christ last year. Yeah, my brother and his wife

918
00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:26,200
Speaker 1: did that. Wow, Holy cow, that's that's a tremendous boy.

919
00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:30,040
Speaker 1: What is the most overrated food? And the food or

920
00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:33,360
Speaker 1: I mean, can it be a spread like Mayonai's without

921
00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:37,520
Speaker 1: a doubt? I couldn't do it. I'll come, I don't

922
00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:40,920
Speaker 1: know what it is. I just cannot do Mayonai's. No, man.

923
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:42,880
Speaker 1: I mean it could be from the point like I

924
00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:46,479
Speaker 1: ordered you know Postmates throughout covid, right and you put

925
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:49,080
Speaker 1: no mail on and there's mail on. And I'm never

926
00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:51,240
Speaker 1: the type of guy that send stuff back at restaurants

927
00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:54,520
Speaker 1: and stuff. But if Mayonai's is on here, I said, no, Mayo,

928
00:50:55,520 --> 00:50:58,239
Speaker 1: That's probably the only time I'll do that. I'm gonna

929
00:50:58,239 --> 00:50:59,520
Speaker 1: sound like an oldn because I kind of am an

930
00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:02,000
Speaker 1: old man. Thing, is it just me? Or has like

931
00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,600
Speaker 1: have takeout orders just gotten bungled to a new degree. No,

932
00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:08,320
Speaker 1: it's I mean it's the new thing. I mean you

933
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:11,200
Speaker 1: talking about groceries and Amazon everything. You know Amazon, give

934
00:51:11,239 --> 00:51:15,800
Speaker 1: me some Stockford doing that? Yeah? Everything. Yeah. I almost

935
00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:17,759
Speaker 1: don't want to go pick up the food anymore when

936
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:20,560
Speaker 1: my wife orders it, because it invariably comes back wrong

937
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,799
Speaker 1: and she gets mad at me. It's like, what yea?

938
00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:26,680
Speaker 1: This is vasts of every one of your teammates, your

939
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:30,200
Speaker 1: favorite exercise in the weight room, and your least favorite.

940
00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:33,239
Speaker 1: My favorite will probably have to be what's called the

941
00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:35,880
Speaker 1: Kiser Power squad. Okay, you know where you can just

942
00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:39,560
Speaker 1: measure how much power output you're putting. And my least

943
00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:43,600
Speaker 1: favorite is probably pull ups. I can do them all day,

944
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:47,239
Speaker 1: but the annoyance of just how long they take? Yeah,

945
00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:49,040
Speaker 1: you know how many rips. You're the first person to

946
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:52,200
Speaker 1: say pull ups. It's interesting. Early on in the season,

947
00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:53,960
Speaker 1: I guess I got a lot of skill guys to

948
00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:57,320
Speaker 1: do this. Everyone, to a man, their favorite was squat

949
00:51:57,400 --> 00:51:59,000
Speaker 1: some form of squats, so you're in that crew, and

950
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:00,560
Speaker 1: then it shifted. I got a lot of big dudes

951
00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:03,560
Speaker 1: over the last you know, half season. Everybody hates the

952
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:05,680
Speaker 1: squats and they're all about the bench. So it's it's

953
00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:08,200
Speaker 1: kind of like a nice little social experiment here. If

954
00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:10,319
Speaker 1: you were not a football player, what would your career

955
00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:14,239
Speaker 1: be right now? Traveling photographer? It might be that once

956
00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:17,720
Speaker 1: you're playing, days down the line are over right, oh years,

957
00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:21,200
Speaker 1: because I probably have the way to like empty nests

958
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:23,840
Speaker 1: or something like that. We can travel. But at this point,

959
00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:27,200
Speaker 1: you know, no time soon. Okay, what's the greatest invention

960
00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:30,359
Speaker 1: of all time? The light bulb? Light bulb? All right,

961
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:32,320
Speaker 1: hey man, this has been a lot of fun. We

962
00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:34,200
Speaker 1: appreciate you doing the Drews doesn't best of the luck

963
00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:36,000
Speaker 1: this week and the rest of the season. Thank you

964
00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:40,799
Speaker 1: so much, Brandon. Now, the one thing that stands out

965
00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:43,839
Speaker 1: to me is I gotta know Brandon Cooks probably likes

966
00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:47,040
Speaker 1: doing better doing interviews better with me and Mark then

967
00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:49,560
Speaker 1: with Drew. I would hope. I don't know, man, that

968
00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:52,359
Speaker 1: was pretty darn good. Brandon might want to do Monday

969
00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:54,600
Speaker 1: Mornings Withdrew from now. I man, that's a really really

970
00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:59,080
Speaker 1: good interview. Those guys are They're just awesome. And I

971
00:52:59,160 --> 00:53:05,480
Speaker 1: always had this sort of interview moment when you feel like, okay,

972
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:11,440
Speaker 1: the interview, we gets it, understands it, and kind of

973
00:53:11,560 --> 00:53:15,359
Speaker 1: drops drops the guard, if you will in a way

974
00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:17,799
Speaker 1: you go. That happened to me. I was actually doing

975
00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:21,320
Speaker 1: interview two thousand and nine and I'm sorry two thousand

976
00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:25,600
Speaker 1: and eight Paul ever Bryant Coaching Coach of the Year Awards,

977
00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:27,200
Speaker 1: and I was doing it with my coach at times,

978
00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:28,880
Speaker 1: Sean pander Gash. You know him well. He does our

979
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:31,400
Speaker 1: pre and post game for the Texans. You hear him

980
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:33,760
Speaker 1: from six to ten every single morning. Was Seth Payne.

981
00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:38,000
Speaker 1: And so we had Jim Harbaugh, and Jim has always

982
00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:42,680
Speaker 1: been known to be a little guarded potentially, and so

983
00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:45,399
Speaker 1: we're about to start the interview. Coach takes this big

984
00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:48,920
Speaker 1: old skull dip puts it in. We bring him into

985
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:50,880
Speaker 1: the show. He starts kind of chatting and there's a

986
00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:53,200
Speaker 1: point about three or four minutes in where you see

987
00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:56,520
Speaker 1: him like okay, these guys are okay, and he kind

988
00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:59,000
Speaker 1: of drops the guard and we had the best interview

989
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 1: we could had with him. I mean, he was engaging,

990
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:03,440
Speaker 1: it was funny, it was everything, but you could kind

991
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:07,120
Speaker 1: of see the guard dropping. And I know there are

992
00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:09,640
Speaker 1: some mondays when Brandon does interviews with us where it's

993
00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:11,160
Speaker 1: just like, man, I know, I just got to get

994
00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:13,239
Speaker 1: through it. But then you can kind of see the

995
00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:15,680
Speaker 1: ice break a little bit and he's like, yeah, these

996
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:18,680
Speaker 1: my guys, and then he does a tremendous, tremendous interview

997
00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:22,120
Speaker 1: and he did one obviously there with Drew Doherty. Okay,

998
00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:29,200
Speaker 1: when we get back, even though games were moved from

999
00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:34,000
Speaker 1: Saturday to Monday, from Sunday to Tuesday, there's still are

1000
00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:38,560
Speaker 1: sixteen games this weekend, if you will in the NFL.

1001
00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:42,640
Speaker 1: With all that's going on, I will try and predict

1002
00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:47,600
Speaker 1: all of them. Next right here, presented by Caesar's Rewards

00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:52,160
Speaker 1: Well I wish, I wish, because I've been taking this

1019
00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:55,400
Speaker 1: to Vegas, baby, gone to Caesar's and put some money

1020
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:59,000
Speaker 1: down on these picks. But that's fun. It's a good

1021
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:01,080
Speaker 1: way to go around the end of fell and talk

1022
00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:05,280
Speaker 1: about what is happening with each team, how these games.

1023
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:08,440
Speaker 1: I love talking about the NFL, not just in Texas.

1024
00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:10,560
Speaker 1: I love seeing what's going on, even in teams we

1025
00:56:10,640 --> 00:56:13,880
Speaker 1: don't play, but definitely teams that we have played or

1026
00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:18,200
Speaker 1: are going to play. So let's start. I need my music,

1027
00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:21,160
Speaker 1: and there it is, and now that I have it,

1028
00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:24,719
Speaker 1: we're gonna start with two teams that we have seen

1029
00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:28,920
Speaker 1: this year. Played three games against the Patriots and the Colts.

1030
00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:31,920
Speaker 1: I don't want to talk about the results of any

1031
00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:33,719
Speaker 1: of them, but we should have walked away with a

1032
00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:38,880
Speaker 1: w against the Patriots. However, from that afternoon going forward,

1033
00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:42,120
Speaker 1: if I remember right, the Patriots were one and three

1034
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:43,960
Speaker 1: going into that game. We were one and three going

1035
00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:47,319
Speaker 1: into that game. We had dominated most of the game,

1036
00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:49,359
Speaker 1: should have walked there two and three. The Patriots walked

1037
00:56:49,360 --> 00:56:52,279
Speaker 1: out two and three, So one in three going in,

1038
00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:55,880
Speaker 1: two and three coming out. They have gone eight and

1039
00:56:56,120 --> 00:57:00,880
Speaker 1: one in the last nine games to get to nine

1040
00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:04,400
Speaker 1: and four. The Colts are seven and six, both teams

1041
00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:07,840
Speaker 1: coming off a bye. The Patriots had that windy cold

1042
00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:10,800
Speaker 1: night where they ran the ball night only through it

1043
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:14,040
Speaker 1: three times, and beat the Bills up in Buffalo. The

1044
00:57:14,080 --> 00:57:20,160
Speaker 1: Colts right before the bye they hammered somebody. I'm trying

1045
00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:23,400
Speaker 1: to remember who that was. No, they lost the Buccaneers,

1046
00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:29,480
Speaker 1: so that moved them to seven and six. Here's what

1047
00:57:29,520 --> 00:57:33,720
Speaker 1: I find interesting. Patriots are number one CFC right now,

1048
00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:36,840
Speaker 1: I believe, no, that is now the It's now the Chiefs.

1049
00:57:36,840 --> 00:57:40,720
Speaker 1: The Chiefs number one, the Patriots number two. The Colts

1050
00:57:40,720 --> 00:57:46,680
Speaker 1: are just hanging on to the also receiving votes category

1051
00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:49,400
Speaker 1: in the NFL playoffs. I don't even know. I think

1052
00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:52,240
Speaker 1: they just eked their way into the top seven. Yet

1053
00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:56,840
Speaker 1: Vegas thinks these two teams are even, but because they're

1054
00:57:56,880 --> 00:57:59,240
Speaker 1: playing in Indianapolis, the Colts are two and a half

1055
00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:04,760
Speaker 1: point favorites. I think the Colts win this game. I

1056
00:58:04,840 --> 00:58:08,840
Speaker 1: don't totally trust Carson Wentz. I said it last night

1057
00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:11,919
Speaker 1: talking to the General and talking to Mark on our

1058
00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:15,080
Speaker 1: all access show before the Chiefs Chargers, which, by the way,

1059
00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:19,160
Speaker 1: Chiefs Chargers. Holy cow, How stupid good was that game

1060
00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:24,080
Speaker 1: last night? Oh Man? And we could get into a

1061
00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:26,760
Speaker 1: full on debate about four downs and going for it

1062
00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:30,280
Speaker 1: and all that, but we would need probably, we'd probably

1063
00:58:30,280 --> 00:58:33,240
Speaker 1: need a week's worth of shows. But I'll say this

1064
00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:38,520
Speaker 1: real fast about that. I didn't put this on Twitter

1065
00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:40,840
Speaker 1: because I knew that if I tweeted it with only

1066
00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:44,880
Speaker 1: two hundred eighty characters, it doesn't come out sounding the

1067
00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:49,520
Speaker 1: way maybe it's intended. But when I was coaching twenty

1068
00:58:49,600 --> 00:58:55,920
Speaker 1: years ago, long long time ago, I hated punting, hated

1069
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:59,200
Speaker 1: hated hated punting, and so anytime I got to the

1070
00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:01,720
Speaker 1: other side of the fifth, if that sucker was close,

1071
00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:05,240
Speaker 1: I went for it. I went for it. So my

1072
00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:08,200
Speaker 1: last year coaching, we went down to play at a

1073
00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:12,520
Speaker 1: place and I we went for it. Not even I

1074
00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:14,560
Speaker 1: think we were close to the fifty, but we didn't

1075
00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:16,720
Speaker 1: even come close. I mean we just got shattered that night.

1076
00:59:16,760 --> 00:59:19,760
Speaker 1: I mean, we just got smoked. So we came home

1077
00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:22,120
Speaker 1: from that game. I'd gone for fourth downs like two

1078
00:59:22,240 --> 00:59:25,000
Speaker 1: or three times. I think we got two of the three.

1079
00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:26,880
Speaker 1: We just didn't get that one. So one of my

1080
00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:29,320
Speaker 1: players came in one day. We're just talking, chatting about,

1081
00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:31,280
Speaker 1: you know, his classes and stuff, and say, coach, I

1082
00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:34,160
Speaker 1: ask you a question. I'm sure He said, why do

1083
00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:37,480
Speaker 1: you go for him fourth downs so much? And I just,

1084
00:59:37,680 --> 00:59:39,800
Speaker 1: without missing a beat, I don't know why. And I

1085
00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:42,840
Speaker 1: was teaching at Episcopal High School, so obviously a religiously

1086
00:59:42,840 --> 00:59:45,920
Speaker 1: affiliated school. And I said, God gave me four downs,

1087
00:59:45,920 --> 00:59:50,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna use him and it cracked him up. He did,

1088
00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:52,520
Speaker 1: and I mean I meant too. I was meant to

1089
00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:54,680
Speaker 1: him to laugh. So I was gonna tweet last night

1090
00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:57,720
Speaker 1: that story and then say God greater than analytics. But

1091
00:59:57,760 --> 00:59:59,560
Speaker 1: then I thought, oh man, that's just gonna open up

1092
00:59:59,600 --> 01:00:02,200
Speaker 1: Pandora box. And that wasn't what I was intending. It

1093
01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:04,840
Speaker 1: was just a funny comment that I made, and luckily

1094
01:00:05,120 --> 01:00:07,440
Speaker 1: my player thought it was funny too. Either way, how

1095
01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:11,800
Speaker 1: do you feel about four downs? And you can't be

1096
01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:14,640
Speaker 1: an old funny dutty. The game has changed. I don't

1097
01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:16,600
Speaker 1: know that you can completely dive all the way in

1098
01:00:16,640 --> 01:00:18,680
Speaker 1: will the analytics numbers say this. There's got to be

1099
01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:20,600
Speaker 1: a feel for the game too. But I think if

1100
01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:24,200
Speaker 1: you merge them, and merge the two, the analytics and

1101
01:00:24,280 --> 01:00:25,560
Speaker 1: kind of the feel for the game and some of

1102
01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:27,520
Speaker 1: things that are going on, I think you'll get to

1103
01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:30,959
Speaker 1: the right situation the majority of the time. That gets

1104
01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:35,640
Speaker 1: me back to Patriots Colts and the reason I brought

1105
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:37,200
Speaker 1: all that up because we were talking about last night.

1106
01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:40,000
Speaker 1: Last night I said to John and to Mark, I

1107
01:00:40,080 --> 01:00:44,400
Speaker 1: do not trust Carson Wentz, but I am this time

1108
01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:47,640
Speaker 1: because I think the Colts are gonna show up and

1109
01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:51,320
Speaker 1: play now a little bit rested. I know both teams are,

1110
01:00:51,360 --> 01:00:55,640
Speaker 1: but a little bit rested. I'm going Colts at home close.

1111
01:00:56,160 --> 01:00:59,520
Speaker 1: This feels twenty eight, twenty four, just enough to cover

1112
01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:02,160
Speaker 1: the two and a half. I'm going Colts to win

1113
01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:04,680
Speaker 1: and cover that two and a half. Well, I spent

1114
01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:07,640
Speaker 1: a long time talking about that one. Sorry, let's move on.

1115
01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:09,920
Speaker 1: Let's get to the Panthers and Bills. This is the

1116
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:14,360
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott special. Brandon Bean also, they both were with

1117
01:01:14,400 --> 01:01:16,800
Speaker 1: the Panthers before they went up to the Buffalo Bills.

1118
01:01:16,960 --> 01:01:21,560
Speaker 1: The Panthers backsliding three and all after they beat us

1119
01:01:21,560 --> 01:01:28,120
Speaker 1: on Thursday night two and eight cents. The Bills not

1120
01:01:28,200 --> 01:01:31,120
Speaker 1: doing a whole heck of a lot better. But this

1121
01:01:31,160 --> 01:01:35,000
Speaker 1: game is in Buffalo. Buffalo has Josh Allen. The Panthers

1122
01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:37,840
Speaker 1: can't figure out who the quarterback is. Even though Buffalo

1123
01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:42,840
Speaker 1: is favored by twelve, that number feels very rich, very

1124
01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:46,960
Speaker 1: very very rich. So I'm going with the Bills to win.

1125
01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:51,320
Speaker 1: And apparently there will be weather. The last time the

1126
01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:53,760
Speaker 1: Bills played in weather, it was winding and it was cold,

1127
01:01:54,280 --> 01:01:57,160
Speaker 1: and they end up losing fourteen tenths to the Patriots.

1128
01:01:57,480 --> 01:02:00,320
Speaker 1: I think the Bills come out of this just looking

1129
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:01,800
Speaker 1: to get a win. I think it win by ten.

1130
01:02:02,080 --> 01:02:04,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go twenty to ten. That's less than twelve,

1131
01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:06,919
Speaker 1: so get the Panthers a cover. But the Bills get

1132
01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:10,840
Speaker 1: the dub to move to eight and six. The Cardinals

1133
01:02:11,240 --> 01:02:14,160
Speaker 1: are taken on the Lions. Now, the Cardinals will not

1134
01:02:14,280 --> 01:02:18,320
Speaker 1: have DeAndre Hopkins. He apparently will miss the rest of

1135
01:02:18,320 --> 01:02:23,520
Speaker 1: the regular season dealing with a knee issue. That said,

1136
01:02:24,120 --> 01:02:30,760
Speaker 1: the Cardinals are still favored by thirteen. At Detroit, the

1137
01:02:30,840 --> 01:02:34,040
Speaker 1: Cardinals did not look great. And I know it's the Rams.

1138
01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:35,840
Speaker 1: I know the Rams can do that to teams. I

1139
01:02:35,840 --> 01:02:37,760
Speaker 1: don't know if the Lions can do all of that.

1140
01:02:38,800 --> 01:02:41,400
Speaker 1: So I do think the Cardinals will get a cover here,

1141
01:02:42,080 --> 01:02:43,360
Speaker 1: but I feel like it's gonna be one of those

1142
01:02:43,360 --> 01:02:47,400
Speaker 1: backdoor things. It's twenty eight, twenty one and the Cardinals

1143
01:02:47,920 --> 01:02:49,880
Speaker 1: pick six in the last two minutes and win thirty

1144
01:02:49,880 --> 01:02:51,680
Speaker 1: five twenty one. I don't even know if he gets

1145
01:02:51,680 --> 01:02:54,080
Speaker 1: that high scoring, but I do think the Cardinals are

1146
01:02:54,120 --> 01:02:57,520
Speaker 1: gonna get kind of a backdoor late cover. Cardinals win

1147
01:02:57,680 --> 01:03:02,160
Speaker 1: and cover that thirteen on the road in Detroit, where

1148
01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:05,240
Speaker 1: presumably is snowing, but no one really knows, because well,

1149
01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:08,560
Speaker 1: they play indoors. The Jets are taken on the Dolphins.

1150
01:03:08,680 --> 01:03:11,439
Speaker 1: I mentioned these two teams earlier. The Jets are three

1151
01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:15,680
Speaker 1: and ten, Dolphins six and seven. I don't think, first

1152
01:03:15,680 --> 01:03:17,720
Speaker 1: of all, the Jets aren't going to Miami to beat Miami.

1153
01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:20,320
Speaker 1: Zach Wilson has been all over the place. It's not

1154
01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:23,080
Speaker 1: been good for the rookie, the number two overall pick.

1155
01:03:23,440 --> 01:03:26,800
Speaker 1: It's actually not been good for any first round quarterbacks

1156
01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:31,840
Speaker 1: not named Mac Jones. When Zach Wilson has struggled to

1157
01:03:31,920 --> 01:03:35,320
Speaker 1: a point where the Jets, there's been talked to maybe

1158
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:37,720
Speaker 1: the Jets to look at somebody else at quarterback next year,

1159
01:03:37,760 --> 01:03:39,640
Speaker 1: even though they just spent the number two overall pick.

1160
01:03:41,240 --> 01:03:43,439
Speaker 1: I do think Wilson will start to show some things

1161
01:03:43,440 --> 01:03:46,800
Speaker 1: over the last four games, but the Dolphins a tough

1162
01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:49,480
Speaker 1: defense to do that against because of all the blitz

1163
01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:53,120
Speaker 1: the Dolphins send. I think the Dolphins win this game.

1164
01:03:53,720 --> 01:03:58,600
Speaker 1: They won't win it by a couple of touchdowns, but

1165
01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:03,040
Speaker 1: I do think it's a fairly decisive ten to twelve

1166
01:04:03,120 --> 01:04:05,919
Speaker 1: point win that covers nine and a half. Miami gets

1167
01:04:05,920 --> 01:04:09,120
Speaker 1: to win at home to get to seven and seven

1168
01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:13,480
Speaker 1: stay in the playoff race. Jets fall to three and eleven.

1169
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:19,720
Speaker 1: The Cowboys, fresh off a defensive performance that was top notch.

1170
01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:24,440
Speaker 1: Dan Quinn has been unbelievable this year. For that Cowboys defense,

1171
01:04:24,680 --> 01:04:28,160
Speaker 1: you throw in arguably the defensive player of the year

1172
01:04:28,600 --> 01:04:32,320
Speaker 1: and definitely defensive rookie of the year Michael Parsons Tremal

1173
01:04:32,480 --> 01:04:35,560
Speaker 1: Diggs in his second year has been fantastic. The Cowboys

1174
01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:40,520
Speaker 1: will go to the Giants in New Jersey and pound

1175
01:04:40,560 --> 01:04:43,520
Speaker 1: Mike Glennon into submission. This will get ugly for Glennon.

1176
01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:46,760
Speaker 1: Cowboys will win this. Dak will get back on track.

1177
01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:51,280
Speaker 1: I'm not worried about that Cowboys house the Giants and

1178
01:04:51,480 --> 01:04:54,640
Speaker 1: jay Zy beating the Giants by more than ten and

1179
01:04:54,680 --> 01:04:58,800
Speaker 1: a half, so win and cover four the Dallas Cowboys.

1180
01:04:59,240 --> 01:05:01,320
Speaker 1: This game is all kinds of interesting to me. Coming

1181
01:05:01,400 --> 01:05:06,760
Speaker 1: up next, it's another Neon game in Pittsburgh where the

1182
01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:12,360
Speaker 1: Steelers are six six and one. The Titans at nine

1183
01:05:12,440 --> 01:05:17,400
Speaker 1: and four travel to take on Pittsburgh. This one's really

1184
01:05:17,440 --> 01:05:21,440
Speaker 1: intriguing to me. Zach Cuttingham apparently will play for the Titans,

1185
01:05:21,560 --> 01:05:24,440
Speaker 1: which that'll be the first look at Zach in a

1186
01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:27,680
Speaker 1: different jersey other than the Texans, and he will be

1187
01:05:27,760 --> 01:05:30,960
Speaker 1: needed against Nagie Harris and the Steelers. The Pittsburgh Steelers

1188
01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:37,240
Speaker 1: are favorite by one. Vegas says that on a neutral field,

1189
01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:39,960
Speaker 1: that would make the Titans about a two point favorite,

1190
01:05:39,960 --> 01:05:42,920
Speaker 1: but playing at Pittsburgh, they give the Steelers three points,

1191
01:05:42,920 --> 01:05:46,920
Speaker 1: that makes them one point favorite. I actually think that

1192
01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:51,320
Speaker 1: the Steelers will pull the upset. It's not even an upsets.

1193
01:05:51,320 --> 01:05:53,360
Speaker 1: They're favorite, I guess. But Theater are gonna win this game.

1194
01:05:53,440 --> 01:05:55,520
Speaker 1: It's basically straight up. I'm gonna take the Steelers at

1195
01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:58,120
Speaker 1: home to win and cover and beat the Titans. I

1196
01:05:58,120 --> 01:06:00,840
Speaker 1: think that twenty and nothing win damned the Tide. It

1197
01:06:00,960 --> 01:06:04,720
Speaker 1: slowed the bleeding. But I think without Derrick Henry, the

1198
01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:07,960
Speaker 1: Titans struggled. The Titans gave up four sacks to the Jags.

1199
01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:10,400
Speaker 1: I don't know that I totally trust the Tight's run game,

1200
01:06:10,440 --> 01:06:12,520
Speaker 1: but it's better than what Tannehill's given them. And I

1201
01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:15,320
Speaker 1: know they're working their receivers back. But I think the

1202
01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:17,720
Speaker 1: Steelers are gonna get a win. They're backed into a corner.

1203
01:06:17,760 --> 01:06:22,080
Speaker 1: I think Steelers win that covering that one point Steelers,

1204
01:06:22,120 --> 01:06:24,320
Speaker 1: it feels like an upset, but it's not because their

1205
01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:28,160
Speaker 1: favorite Let's get to our afternoon games on Sunday. Bengals v.

1206
01:06:28,320 --> 01:06:31,320
Speaker 1: Broncos most seven and six, but it's a big, big game,

1207
01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:35,200
Speaker 1: and it's a big game for Teddy Bridgewater. Joe Burrow

1208
01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:38,600
Speaker 1: is the entrenched starter. He was awesome last week in

1209
01:06:38,880 --> 01:06:42,720
Speaker 1: a narrow defeat. An overtime defeat to the San Francisco

1210
01:06:42,760 --> 01:06:45,080
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers, which dropped the Bengals of seven and six.

1211
01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:51,360
Speaker 1: The Broncos played inspired football after Damarius Thomas had passed

1212
01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:54,640
Speaker 1: away earlier in the week, a legendary Bronco receiver. They

1213
01:06:54,680 --> 01:06:57,680
Speaker 1: played with that emotion. It was clear they were ready

1214
01:06:57,720 --> 01:07:02,480
Speaker 1: to roll in. The Broncos roll big. Playing at home again,

1215
01:07:02,560 --> 01:07:05,560
Speaker 1: Denver's a three point favorite. They're both seven and six

1216
01:07:05,880 --> 01:07:07,960
Speaker 1: as a three point favorite. Vegas will tell you they

1217
01:07:07,960 --> 01:07:11,080
Speaker 1: are even. Stephen And that's the way this one feels.

1218
01:07:11,120 --> 01:07:14,600
Speaker 1: I don't have a great read on this, so I'm

1219
01:07:14,600 --> 01:07:17,000
Speaker 1: gonna go with the Broncos at home. I'll go with

1220
01:07:17,040 --> 01:07:20,960
Speaker 1: the home team and Teddy Bridgewater to summon up all

1221
01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:22,840
Speaker 1: he's got and get the Broncos a big win. To

1222
01:07:22,880 --> 01:07:25,080
Speaker 1: get the Broncos to eight and six. Wow, that'll be

1223
01:07:25,120 --> 01:07:28,560
Speaker 1: a big win and they'll cover that three points. The

1224
01:07:28,640 --> 01:07:31,800
Speaker 1: aforementioned San Francisco forty nine ers have been playing much

1225
01:07:31,920 --> 01:07:35,280
Speaker 1: much much better. That win at Cincinnati last week just

1226
01:07:35,360 --> 01:07:39,000
Speaker 1: showed the medal. Brandon I Yuk is getting it. Deebo

1227
01:07:39,080 --> 01:07:42,440
Speaker 1: Samuel will get him back healthy, apparently, Jimmy Garoppolo is

1228
01:07:42,440 --> 01:07:45,720
Speaker 1: making some key plays. George Kittle is back to being

1229
01:07:45,920 --> 01:07:51,560
Speaker 1: George mother bleeping Kittle, and I think that's the difference.

1230
01:07:52,040 --> 01:07:55,960
Speaker 1: Those guys are clicking. Forty Niners are gonna beat the Falcons.

1231
01:07:56,200 --> 01:07:57,720
Speaker 1: Forty Niners are gonna move to eight and six, the

1232
01:07:57,800 --> 01:08:00,000
Speaker 1: numbers nine and a half. I think the forty nins

1233
01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:02,480
Speaker 1: cover that the Falcons with a win can stay in

1234
01:08:02,520 --> 01:08:05,760
Speaker 1: the playoff race. But this is where it sort of ends.

1235
01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:07,760
Speaker 1: I think for Arthur Smith, they're gonna win or two

1236
01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:10,680
Speaker 1: down the stretch to get the seven and ten, maybe

1237
01:08:10,680 --> 01:08:13,120
Speaker 1: even eight and nine, but they won't make the playoffs.

1238
01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:15,360
Speaker 1: But I tip to Captain Arthur Smith because he's had

1239
01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:17,360
Speaker 1: a really good year as a first year head coach

1240
01:08:17,400 --> 01:08:19,000
Speaker 1: for the Falcons. But the forty nine ers are too

1241
01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:23,919
Speaker 1: much with all the weapons now ready to roll Sunday afternoon,

1242
01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:26,360
Speaker 1: this is a great one Packers taken on the Ravens.

1243
01:08:26,720 --> 01:08:31,280
Speaker 1: Still a question about Lamar Jackson's availability for the Ravens.

1244
01:08:32,120 --> 01:08:34,920
Speaker 1: The Packers at ten and three will miss Kenny Clark,

1245
01:08:35,800 --> 01:08:37,680
Speaker 1: which well, I say miss him, but he's on the

1246
01:08:37,680 --> 01:08:40,080
Speaker 1: COVID nine team reserve list, so we'll see if he's

1247
01:08:40,080 --> 01:08:42,200
Speaker 1: able to play. That's a big loss for the Packers

1248
01:08:42,600 --> 01:08:47,200
Speaker 1: figuratively and literally. He is the stalwart in the middle

1249
01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:50,519
Speaker 1: of that defensive line that will help against the Ravens.

1250
01:08:51,320 --> 01:08:53,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna roll with the Packers here, but I don't

1251
01:08:53,080 --> 01:08:55,479
Speaker 1: like the six and a half. I think the Ravens

1252
01:08:55,520 --> 01:08:57,880
Speaker 1: will get inside that six and a half, So give

1253
01:08:57,920 --> 01:09:01,280
Speaker 1: the Packers the dub the Ravens will get inside of

1254
01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:05,559
Speaker 1: that six and a half Sunday Night Saints Bucks. I

1255
01:09:05,680 --> 01:09:08,559
Speaker 1: just don't see it. I don't see it. Sean Paige's

1256
01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:12,280
Speaker 1: out COVID nineteen. He will miss this game. The Bucks

1257
01:09:12,280 --> 01:09:15,679
Speaker 1: are ten and three, starting to find the groove. Bucks

1258
01:09:15,680 --> 01:09:17,479
Speaker 1: are gonna win us by a couple of touchdowns. That

1259
01:09:17,560 --> 01:09:21,919
Speaker 1: covers the eleven and a half Bucks win Bucks cover Monday,

1260
01:09:22,280 --> 01:09:25,280
Speaker 1: the Raiders Browns game gets moved from Saturday. There'll be

1261
01:09:25,280 --> 01:09:29,200
Speaker 1: a four o'clock game on NFL Network. The Browns. You

1262
01:09:29,320 --> 01:09:32,880
Speaker 1: just don't know who's going to be available. That's gonna

1263
01:09:32,880 --> 01:09:35,320
Speaker 1: be tough. It's a circle of wagons sort of game

1264
01:09:35,360 --> 01:09:37,120
Speaker 1: for the Browns. But the Raiders have been a mess

1265
01:09:37,400 --> 01:09:41,559
Speaker 1: for the last seven eight weeks for numerous reasons, and

1266
01:09:41,640 --> 01:09:44,680
Speaker 1: the line is has been taken down. I'm gonna go

1267
01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:47,280
Speaker 1: with the Raiders playing with a little bit of an

1268
01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:50,240
Speaker 1: edge and the Browns with too many guys out, So

1269
01:09:50,400 --> 01:09:51,920
Speaker 1: get the Raiders to win. I don't know what the

1270
01:09:51,960 --> 01:09:54,559
Speaker 1: line is. The line has been taken down because all

1271
01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:56,920
Speaker 1: that's been going on. So Raiders get to win in

1272
01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:59,880
Speaker 1: that one. The Vikings go to the Bears, This was

1273
01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:02,320
Speaker 1: to be your Monday night came, and it is your

1274
01:10:02,320 --> 01:10:05,080
Speaker 1: Monday night came. This one's not moved, but the Vikings

1275
01:10:05,080 --> 01:10:07,080
Speaker 1: taking on the Bears. The Vikings at six and seven

1276
01:10:07,080 --> 01:10:09,559
Speaker 1: the Bears at four and nine. Minnesota is a six

1277
01:10:10,000 --> 01:10:14,519
Speaker 1: point favorite on the road. Justin Fields wasn't perfect the

1278
01:10:14,600 --> 01:10:17,479
Speaker 1: other night, but you can start. The seedlings are there.

1279
01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:22,080
Speaker 1: You can start to see the promise of potential being fulfilled.

1280
01:10:22,760 --> 01:10:26,479
Speaker 1: And I will go with the Bears to get inside

1281
01:10:26,479 --> 01:10:28,599
Speaker 1: the number. But the Vikings are gonna go to Chicago

1282
01:10:28,640 --> 01:10:31,000
Speaker 1: and get the win. Vikings win, get to seven and seven,

1283
01:10:31,040 --> 01:10:34,320
Speaker 1: but the Bears get the cover. Seahawks taking on the

1284
01:10:34,439 --> 01:10:38,920
Speaker 1: Rams on Tuesday night. The Seahawks got to win last

1285
01:10:38,920 --> 01:10:41,599
Speaker 1: week against US Rams got a big win at the Cardinals.

1286
01:10:41,640 --> 01:10:44,840
Speaker 1: I think the Rams, if they get a few guys back,

1287
01:10:44,920 --> 01:10:47,160
Speaker 1: I'm taking the Rams. There's no line in this game

1288
01:10:47,240 --> 01:10:49,160
Speaker 1: as a result of it being moved, so I'm taking

1289
01:10:49,160 --> 01:10:52,200
Speaker 1: the Rams to win. And Washington against the Eagles. Taylor

1290
01:10:52,280 --> 01:10:54,920
Speaker 1: Heineke is the guy to watching this one. He has

1291
01:10:54,960 --> 01:10:56,800
Speaker 1: been put on the COVID nineteen lists. We'll see if

1292
01:10:56,840 --> 01:10:59,960
Speaker 1: Washington get him back. And Jalen Hurts is also one

1293
01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:04,439
Speaker 1: to watch for the Eagles as he may be able

1294
01:11:04,479 --> 01:11:07,320
Speaker 1: to come back. So maybe with a couple extra days

1295
01:11:07,360 --> 01:11:11,240
Speaker 1: to get ready, maybe the Eagles are I think the Eagles.

1296
01:11:11,320 --> 01:11:13,600
Speaker 1: Yeah at home. I'm rolling Philadelphia Eagles to beat the

1297
01:11:13,640 --> 01:11:16,519
Speaker 1: Washington football team rams to beat the Seahawks. And those

1298
01:11:16,640 --> 01:11:18,959
Speaker 1: are your picks and predictions brought to you. Buy Caesar's

Speaker 1: Doherty had a chance of sit down with Brandon Cooks.

1317
01:12:39,120 --> 01:12:44,320
Speaker 1: They had a really fun drews dozen interview. Nothing about football.

1318
01:12:45,680 --> 01:12:48,840
Speaker 1: It is now time for Drew Doherty's final word, and

1319
01:12:49,040 --> 01:12:54,759
Speaker 1: everything is about football. And it's still our friend, Brandon Cooks.

1320
01:12:54,840 --> 01:12:58,200
Speaker 1: Drew take it away and it's wide receiver, Brandon Cooks.

1321
01:12:58,200 --> 01:12:59,479
Speaker 1: Good to be with you, Brandon. This has been a

1322
01:12:59,479 --> 01:13:02,040
Speaker 1: different week, you guys. It's kind of like wacky is

1323
01:13:02,080 --> 01:13:03,560
Speaker 1: the new normal. And I don't want to say it

1324
01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:06,000
Speaker 1: was necessarily whacky, but it was different than what you've

1325
01:13:06,040 --> 01:13:08,360
Speaker 1: become accustomed to. But nevertheless, how did it go? You

1326
01:13:08,400 --> 01:13:11,919
Speaker 1: had a shorter Wednesday and then all the stuff with COVID. Yeah,

1327
01:13:11,960 --> 01:13:13,680
Speaker 1: you know, it's one of those things that you know,

1328
01:13:13,800 --> 01:13:16,120
Speaker 1: as they say, the great ones adjust, and you know,

1329
01:13:16,160 --> 01:13:18,280
Speaker 1: it's unfortunate in our times. I think at the end

1330
01:13:18,280 --> 01:13:20,000
Speaker 1: of the day, the times that we're in, we just

1331
01:13:20,000 --> 01:13:22,839
Speaker 1: got to be ready before whatever and ready to adjust.

1332
01:13:22,880 --> 01:13:24,960
Speaker 1: So and I think you know, the whole staff and

1333
01:13:25,000 --> 01:13:26,519
Speaker 1: the team has been doing a great job at a

1334
01:13:26,720 --> 01:13:29,000
Speaker 1: m and you're somebody that you lead by example and

1335
01:13:29,120 --> 01:13:31,200
Speaker 1: you do everything you're doing on the field. But you've

1336
01:13:31,200 --> 01:13:33,719
Speaker 1: you've been more vocal this year, last year as well.

1337
01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:36,200
Speaker 1: When did that kind of turn for you? Did you

1338
01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:38,280
Speaker 1: come into the NFL as a very vocal guy as

1339
01:13:38,280 --> 01:13:40,640
Speaker 1: a rookie? How did that turn? When did it turn? No?

1340
01:13:40,880 --> 01:13:44,280
Speaker 1: You always say it's turned probably in the last couple

1341
01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:46,160
Speaker 1: of years of my career, just because you know, I'm

1342
01:13:46,200 --> 01:13:47,960
Speaker 1: being put in that position to be able to lead,

1343
01:13:48,000 --> 01:13:50,519
Speaker 1: and you know, great leaders do lead by example. Back

1344
01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:53,080
Speaker 1: at the same time, every once in a while, you know,

1345
01:13:53,120 --> 01:13:55,240
Speaker 1: they gotta be vocal, and so I pick and choose

1346
01:13:55,280 --> 01:13:57,640
Speaker 1: my spots. But yeah, I think that's changed. It's just

1347
01:13:57,640 --> 01:13:59,519
Speaker 1: over the last couple of years of my career. All right,

1348
01:13:59,560 --> 01:14:02,720
Speaker 1: tell me out what's going on offensively? You guys really

1349
01:14:02,720 --> 01:14:04,960
Speaker 1: getting a rhythm early last week. How do you sustain that?

1350
01:14:05,160 --> 01:14:07,360
Speaker 1: What was going well to make that happen? Yeah? I

1351
01:14:07,360 --> 01:14:09,400
Speaker 1: think the biggest thing is just playing fast. I mean,

1352
01:14:09,400 --> 01:14:11,960
Speaker 1: you talk about that first drive. There's no penalties. You know,

1353
01:14:11,960 --> 01:14:14,720
Speaker 1: we're being efficient on first and second down. We got

1354
01:14:14,720 --> 01:14:16,160
Speaker 1: to be able to build on top of that and

1355
01:14:16,240 --> 01:14:18,080
Speaker 1: not just start fast, but be able to keep that

1356
01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:20,760
Speaker 1: momentum throughout the game and finish fast as well. How

1357
01:14:20,840 --> 01:14:22,600
Speaker 1: energizing is it for you to play with some of

1358
01:14:22,600 --> 01:14:25,840
Speaker 1: these rookies like Nico Collins, like your quarterback David Sills. No,

1359
01:14:25,880 --> 01:14:27,920
Speaker 1: it's awesome, you know, because you see them grow every

1360
01:14:27,960 --> 01:14:30,439
Speaker 1: single day you first start to that that start. You

1361
01:14:30,479 --> 01:14:33,280
Speaker 1: see how David's just grown, you know, over these weeks.

1362
01:14:33,439 --> 01:14:35,240
Speaker 1: I mean you talk about a guy like Nicos who's

1363
01:14:35,240 --> 01:14:37,840
Speaker 1: always eager to learn and willing to work hard to

1364
01:14:37,840 --> 01:14:40,639
Speaker 1: be able to adjust and get better. I mean it's awesome.

1365
01:14:40,720 --> 01:14:43,439
Speaker 1: So I know, wins obviously the ultimate goal, that's what

1366
01:14:43,479 --> 01:14:46,519
Speaker 1: you want. On a personal level individually, over these last

1367
01:14:46,520 --> 01:14:48,479
Speaker 1: four weeks, what are you trying to accomplish, to be

1368
01:14:48,560 --> 01:14:50,800
Speaker 1: honest with you. For me, it's just being able to

1369
01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:53,479
Speaker 1: go out there and once again lead by example. Obviously.

1370
01:14:53,840 --> 01:14:55,679
Speaker 1: You know we talked about playoffs, not in the playoffs

1371
01:14:55,800 --> 01:14:57,200
Speaker 1: right right at the end of the day, When you

1372
01:14:57,240 --> 01:14:59,120
Speaker 1: play this game, when you respect the game, the game

1373
01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:01,320
Speaker 1: will respect you. So just trying to lead with those

1374
01:15:01,320 --> 01:15:04,080
Speaker 1: young guys, no matter how it looks going out there

1375
01:15:04,160 --> 01:15:06,200
Speaker 1: continue to try to get better. And that's what I

1376
01:15:06,200 --> 01:15:08,040
Speaker 1: feel like I'm doing as a player, is getting better

1377
01:15:08,040 --> 01:15:09,960
Speaker 1: every day, and I just want to continue to keep

1378
01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:11,880
Speaker 1: that tramp through the rest of these four weeks. Yeah,

1379
01:15:11,920 --> 01:15:13,840
Speaker 1: and before we talk about the guys on the field

1380
01:15:13,840 --> 01:15:16,800
Speaker 1: that you're gonna play against. Odd situation. Jacksonville, they get

1381
01:15:16,880 --> 01:15:18,920
Speaker 1: rid of Urban Meyers, so they've got an interim coach

1382
01:15:18,920 --> 01:15:20,760
Speaker 1: and Darryl Bevill. You've been a part of that, you know,

1383
01:15:20,880 --> 01:15:23,519
Speaker 1: last year here. What's it like? What what do you

1384
01:15:23,520 --> 01:15:27,240
Speaker 1: think you might be going into facing a situation like

1385
01:15:27,320 --> 01:15:30,080
Speaker 1: that of guys that could be energized, could go the

1386
01:15:30,080 --> 01:15:32,120
Speaker 1: other one. I think it's more than likely, you know,

1387
01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:34,400
Speaker 1: like I said, like you said, being in that situation

1388
01:15:34,479 --> 01:15:36,920
Speaker 1: myself last year, I think those guys are gonna come

1389
01:15:36,920 --> 01:15:39,800
Speaker 1: out energized, winning to play for that coach and come

1390
01:15:39,880 --> 01:15:43,240
Speaker 1: together anytime. As we all know, all it is in

1391
01:15:43,240 --> 01:15:45,519
Speaker 1: the locker room, it is us, and so I feel

1392
01:15:45,520 --> 01:15:47,280
Speaker 1: like those guys are gonna come out and just play

1393
01:15:47,680 --> 01:15:49,720
Speaker 1: their tails off and have that energy. And so we

1394
01:15:49,800 --> 01:15:51,400
Speaker 1: got to be able to expect that and be ready

1395
01:15:51,400 --> 01:15:53,479
Speaker 1: for that. All right, tell me about that secondary over

1396
01:15:53,520 --> 01:15:55,559
Speaker 1: there in Jacksonville a little different than what you saw

1397
01:15:55,760 --> 01:15:57,760
Speaker 1: in week one. But what did they do? I mean,

1398
01:15:58,439 --> 01:16:00,680
Speaker 1: those guys are still playing. Fact, I'm out Shack and

1399
01:16:00,760 --> 01:16:03,920
Speaker 1: Campbell leading those outside guys at the corner position. Those

1400
01:16:03,920 --> 01:16:06,080
Speaker 1: guys can run, that's for sure. I mean they're playing

1401
01:16:06,120 --> 01:16:08,240
Speaker 1: at a high level on weekend and week out. So

1402
01:16:08,439 --> 01:16:10,200
Speaker 1: I look forward to that matchup. You go, you talk

1403
01:16:10,240 --> 01:16:13,160
Speaker 1: about their safeties. Who's disciplined in that front seven. It's

1404
01:16:13,200 --> 01:16:16,080
Speaker 1: just always flying around led by Josh Allen. You know,

1405
01:16:16,120 --> 01:16:18,120
Speaker 1: we gotta be able to be ready for that and

1406
01:16:18,320 --> 01:16:21,720
Speaker 1: expect the energize team. Okay, let's wrap this up by

1407
01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:24,400
Speaker 1: finding out how you power game day and how you

1408
01:16:24,439 --> 01:16:27,599
Speaker 1: get powered on game day night before. So it's gonna

1409
01:16:27,600 --> 01:16:30,360
Speaker 1: be a one pm Eastern game when you go to sleep,

1410
01:16:30,400 --> 01:16:33,599
Speaker 1: when you wake up, I'm in bed nine thirty, all right,

1411
01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:35,720
Speaker 1: as soon as the meeting's over, you know, get a

1412
01:16:35,720 --> 01:16:39,120
Speaker 1: little snack head into the room that's at bath and

1413
01:16:39,320 --> 01:16:41,920
Speaker 1: probably as closed by nine thirty, and it's easy to

1414
01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:44,360
Speaker 1: sleep the night before a game. Yeah, at this point,

1415
01:16:44,520 --> 01:16:46,800
Speaker 1: just being in that routine, right, Yeah? Was it always

1416
01:16:46,840 --> 01:16:49,240
Speaker 1: that way? Uh? No, I think it's been that way

1417
01:16:49,320 --> 01:16:51,800
Speaker 1: more so because we had a loot newborn last year.

1418
01:16:52,320 --> 01:16:57,519
Speaker 1: It's all you're relish that time, because that's I don't

1419
01:16:57,520 --> 01:16:59,559
Speaker 1: know if you have kids, yes, but if you do,

1420
01:16:59,640 --> 01:17:02,360
Speaker 1: you know you understand that they'll sleep. That's nice early

1421
01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:05,679
Speaker 1: on are real so being able to get those moments

1422
01:17:05,920 --> 01:17:08,200
Speaker 1: just to be a piece and quiet, That's why it's

1423
01:17:08,240 --> 01:17:10,640
Speaker 1: a lot more easier to sleep. Tell room can be

1424
01:17:10,720 --> 01:17:14,559
Speaker 1: like a paradise no matter how it is. Absolutely well,

1425
01:17:14,600 --> 01:17:17,200
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks, You've always done well against the Jaguars in

1426
01:17:17,240 --> 01:17:20,600
Speaker 1: your career. We hope that keeps up on Sunday in Jacksonville.

1427
01:17:20,640 --> 01:17:22,160
Speaker 1: Best of luck, and thank you so much, thank you.

1428
01:17:23,640 --> 01:17:28,600
Speaker 1: I can imagine these past couple of years, players, coaches, staff,

1429
01:17:28,640 --> 01:17:31,120
Speaker 1: we've all sort of learned how to deal with the

1430
01:17:31,280 --> 01:17:35,880
Speaker 1: zoom meetings and the virtual stuff. I mean those those

1431
01:17:36,000 --> 01:17:42,200
Speaker 1: terms all became that much more important. I suppose as

1432
01:17:42,240 --> 01:17:46,200
Speaker 1: we lived in a COVID world post March twenty twenty.

1433
01:17:46,240 --> 01:17:50,680
Speaker 1: I've never heard of zoom in February at twenty twenty,

1434
01:17:50,720 --> 01:17:53,080
Speaker 1: and then all of a a sudden, it's you do everything

1435
01:17:53,080 --> 01:17:56,120
Speaker 1: on zoom nowadays, and to be able to hey, we

1436
01:17:56,120 --> 01:17:58,920
Speaker 1: did this back in twenty twenty. Let's no, we can

1437
01:17:59,080 --> 01:18:01,560
Speaker 1: can't cry about it. K kept said about it. We

1438
01:18:01,640 --> 01:18:03,759
Speaker 1: just got to deal with it. Got a game on Sunday,

1439
01:18:03,840 --> 01:18:06,479
Speaker 1: so let's rock and this is how you gotta do it.

1440
01:18:06,479 --> 01:18:08,559
Speaker 1: And look, every team in the league is having to

1441
01:18:08,600 --> 01:18:11,679
Speaker 1: do it as well. Some teams had to move games

1442
01:18:11,720 --> 01:18:16,240
Speaker 1: so that adjusted schedules. So yeah, it's not the easiest

1443
01:18:16,240 --> 01:18:20,120
Speaker 1: thing in the world at all, not even close to

1444
01:18:20,240 --> 01:18:23,680
Speaker 1: be any easy thing to adapt to. But that's what

1445
01:18:23,720 --> 01:18:26,360
Speaker 1: we're all doing. I think Brandon has a great outlook

1446
01:18:26,400 --> 01:18:31,160
Speaker 1: on it. I would imagine we'll stay virtual throughout the

1447
01:18:31,200 --> 01:18:34,639
Speaker 1: rest of the year. I think keep these protocols in place.

1448
01:18:34,680 --> 01:18:37,519
Speaker 1: We'll see what the NFL decides to do going forward

1449
01:18:37,560 --> 01:18:42,240
Speaker 1: on it. To the playoffs, the timing, I don't want

1450
01:18:42,240 --> 01:18:44,240
Speaker 1: to say it could be worse, but I guess if

1451
01:18:44,240 --> 01:18:47,280
Speaker 1: you got to the playoffs and this thing happened and

1452
01:18:47,400 --> 01:18:50,760
Speaker 1: that you had the spike in COVID cases, that could

1453
01:18:50,760 --> 01:18:53,080
Speaker 1: be worse because I don't know how you move games

1454
01:18:53,080 --> 01:18:55,880
Speaker 1: and keep things equitable for the fourteen teams end up

1455
01:18:55,920 --> 01:18:59,599
Speaker 1: making the playoffs. But unfortunately, the Texans won't be part

1456
01:18:59,760 --> 01:19:05,040
Speaker 1: of those fourteen this year. Maybe next year. They have

1457
01:19:05,200 --> 01:19:08,280
Speaker 1: been in the past, Unfortunately it won't be in twenty

1458
01:19:08,400 --> 01:19:10,879
Speaker 1: twenty one. In fact, the two teams that play on Sunday.

1459
01:19:11,840 --> 01:19:17,320
Speaker 1: This is more about the where they fall. And here's

1460
01:19:17,360 --> 01:19:23,559
Speaker 1: the other thing that people forget too, how this game goes. Now, Look,

1461
01:19:24,479 --> 01:19:27,479
Speaker 1: the Texas could win this game and lose the last three.

1462
01:19:27,560 --> 01:19:29,760
Speaker 1: The Jags could lose this and win the last three,

1463
01:19:30,520 --> 01:19:34,120
Speaker 1: and things could flip. We don't know. But the other

1464
01:19:34,160 --> 01:19:38,240
Speaker 1: aspect to consider outside of draft positioning is who you

1465
01:19:38,280 --> 01:19:42,400
Speaker 1: play next year. That's gonna be up in the air.

1466
01:19:42,960 --> 01:19:45,840
Speaker 1: Where your where your place. So if you come in

1467
01:19:46,040 --> 01:19:49,960
Speaker 1: fourth place, the teams you gotta look at and the

1468
01:19:50,040 --> 01:19:51,920
Speaker 1: AFC East a team that will come in fourth place,

1469
01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:54,519
Speaker 1: probably Jets. So the difference is you win this game

1470
01:19:54,560 --> 01:19:56,920
Speaker 1: and you finish the third place, you can potentially play

1471
01:19:57,000 --> 01:20:01,040
Speaker 1: the Dolphins. If you come in fourth place, more likely

1472
01:20:01,080 --> 01:20:04,880
Speaker 1: you're gonna face the Jets in twenty twenty two. In

1473
01:20:04,920 --> 01:20:09,200
Speaker 1: the NFC North, you will play on the road either

1474
01:20:09,760 --> 01:20:14,640
Speaker 1: Chicago or Detroit, depending on where you finish presumable. Presumably

1475
01:20:14,680 --> 01:20:18,559
Speaker 1: Chicago's gonna finish third, Detroit's gonna finish fourth. And then

1476
01:20:18,600 --> 01:20:23,400
Speaker 1: the other one is the AFC North. The AFC North,

1477
01:20:23,520 --> 01:20:27,200
Speaker 1: yis I mean, there's not a good one because everybody's

1478
01:20:27,240 --> 01:20:30,760
Speaker 1: in the race right now. Baltimore is near the side,

1479
01:20:30,760 --> 01:20:34,360
Speaker 1: the Bengals are near the top. The Browns and their

1480
01:20:34,400 --> 01:20:36,880
Speaker 1: game got moved obviously, but they're in. It makes it

1481
01:20:36,960 --> 01:20:38,960
Speaker 1: seven and six. I think the Steelers are in fourth

1482
01:20:38,960 --> 01:20:42,280
Speaker 1: place right now. And I don't know if you if

1483
01:20:42,280 --> 01:20:47,080
Speaker 1: we would go to the Jets, to the Dolphins home

1484
01:20:47,640 --> 01:20:50,640
Speaker 1: Browns or Steelers or vice versa, I don't, I don't know.

1485
01:20:50,680 --> 01:20:52,960
Speaker 1: I love going to Pittsburgh. I've always loved going to Pittsburgh.

1486
01:20:53,160 --> 01:20:54,640
Speaker 1: Last year was kind of weird because we did during

1487
01:20:54,680 --> 01:20:57,960
Speaker 1: the COVID year. There's nobody in the building, nobody. It

1488
01:20:58,080 --> 01:21:00,000
Speaker 1: was the most it was the oddest thing I've ever

1489
01:21:00,000 --> 01:21:03,160
Speaker 1: see my life. But that's the other thing that's at hand.

1490
01:21:04,120 --> 01:21:07,400
Speaker 1: With these two teams playing on Sunday. Now, it's not

1491
01:21:07,439 --> 01:21:10,040
Speaker 1: going to determine whose third place, who's fourth place, But

1492
01:21:10,160 --> 01:21:11,640
Speaker 1: neither one of these teams are gonna be able to

1493
01:21:11,680 --> 01:21:14,280
Speaker 1: catch first and second. That tightens the Colts, so the

1494
01:21:14,360 --> 01:21:18,000
Speaker 1: only teams they can match up with would be third

1495
01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:22,360
Speaker 1: place team fourth place team. But in some divisions, I mean,

1496
01:21:22,400 --> 01:21:24,800
Speaker 1: actually one, two, three, four don't matter in AFC North.

1497
01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:27,960
Speaker 1: The difference in third and fourth in AFC East is big,

1498
01:21:28,840 --> 01:21:33,120
Speaker 1: and the difference in third and fourth in the NFC

1499
01:21:33,320 --> 01:21:37,599
Speaker 1: North is also is also big. Although even though Detroit

1500
01:21:37,760 --> 01:21:39,720
Speaker 1: is in fourth place right now, Detroit is a much

1501
01:21:39,720 --> 01:21:44,400
Speaker 1: better team I think overall in Chicago, all things considered,

1502
01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:47,960
Speaker 1: so they're kind of even equal footing. But that's also

1503
01:21:48,000 --> 01:21:50,599
Speaker 1: at hand. So yes, everybody just talking about draft positioning,

1504
01:21:50,960 --> 01:21:54,120
Speaker 1: and that is there. The loser, the loser of this

1505
01:21:54,120 --> 01:21:58,400
Speaker 1: game on Sunday stays within the top two. But if

1506
01:21:58,439 --> 01:22:01,040
Speaker 1: you win, you have the third place. Then all also

1507
01:22:01,439 --> 01:22:04,200
Speaker 1: means you're gonna play a little bit stronger schedule as well.

1508
01:22:04,680 --> 01:22:07,360
Speaker 1: That all said, those things are all gonna be a

1509
01:22:07,400 --> 01:22:10,439
Speaker 1: factor down the road. Let's go get a w Let's

1510
01:22:10,439 --> 01:22:13,280
Speaker 1: go get a wins, Go beat the Jags. I've been

1511
01:22:13,320 --> 01:22:17,559
Speaker 1: to Jacksonville on the sidelines since twenty fourteen. This will

1512
01:22:17,600 --> 01:22:19,840
Speaker 1: be the eighth game against the Jags on the road.

1513
01:22:19,880 --> 01:22:22,000
Speaker 1: One of those was in London. Won that one, so

1514
01:22:22,000 --> 01:22:24,599
Speaker 1: we've had seven. Will be the seventh game. We've had

1515
01:22:24,680 --> 01:22:27,400
Speaker 1: six in Jacksonville. We've won five. The only time we

1516
01:22:27,520 --> 01:22:31,720
Speaker 1: lost was twenty seventeen. And when we have beaten Jacksonville

1517
01:22:32,160 --> 01:22:37,719
Speaker 1: once in a year, we have beaten them twice. It's

1518
01:22:37,720 --> 01:22:41,920
Speaker 1: been nothing but sweeps going back. If my math is

1519
01:22:41,960 --> 01:22:46,519
Speaker 1: correct dating back to two thousand, it could go back

1520
01:22:46,560 --> 01:22:47,880
Speaker 1: for a while, but I know if I started in

1521
01:22:47,960 --> 01:22:51,960
Speaker 1: two thousand eleven, we swept them. Twenty twelve, we swept them,

1522
01:22:52,000 --> 01:22:58,920
Speaker 1: twenty thirteen, they swept US twenty fourteen, twenty fifteen, twenty sixteen,

1523
01:22:58,960 --> 01:23:03,000
Speaker 1: we swept them, seventeen, they swept US twenty eighteen, got

1524
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:05,880
Speaker 1: back on track, we swept them, two nineteen, we swept them,

1525
01:23:06,080 --> 01:23:09,760
Speaker 1: twenty twenty, we swept them this year twenty twenty one,

1526
01:23:09,800 --> 01:23:11,559
Speaker 1: we beat them in Week one. So we've not had

1527
01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:15,720
Speaker 1: a split result at least dating back twenty ten. And

1528
01:23:15,760 --> 01:23:17,720
Speaker 1: I don't that was just I pulled that all off

1529
01:23:17,760 --> 01:23:20,599
Speaker 1: my dome, So I don't know. I can't go I'm

1530
01:23:20,600 --> 01:23:23,519
Speaker 1: sure twenty ten. If I thought hard about it, I

1531
01:23:23,560 --> 01:23:25,439
Speaker 1: could figure it out, but I don't really have the

1532
01:23:25,439 --> 01:23:28,200
Speaker 1: brain power this late in the show to kind of

1533
01:23:28,280 --> 01:23:31,439
Speaker 1: figure that out. But either way, a lot at steak

1534
01:23:32,040 --> 01:23:34,040
Speaker 1: for this game. It may not look that way with

1535
01:23:34,120 --> 01:23:37,080
Speaker 1: two teams that are mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, but

1536
01:23:37,200 --> 01:23:40,320
Speaker 1: there is a lot of steak with this game on Sunday,

1537
01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:44,439
Speaker 1: and here is hoping the Texans are mutters again, because

1538
01:23:44,479 --> 01:23:46,200
Speaker 1: it does look like there's going to be rain. Now.

1539
01:23:46,200 --> 01:23:48,360
Speaker 1: I'd love to have a game without rain in Jacksonville,

1540
01:23:48,400 --> 01:23:53,160
Speaker 1: but we've had that before. I think twenty twenty sixteen.

1541
01:23:53,360 --> 01:23:55,599
Speaker 1: I think there was a little bit of rain last year,

1542
01:23:55,640 --> 01:23:59,960
Speaker 1: had poured during pre game, but then the rain stopped.

1543
01:24:00,040 --> 01:24:01,639
Speaker 1: Then we were okay for the rest of the day

1544
01:24:01,640 --> 01:24:05,360
Speaker 1: and hoping for that, but mostly hoping for a W.

1545
01:24:05,560 --> 01:24:08,240
Speaker 1: Look the skies can open and just bring the funk.

1546
01:24:08,680 --> 01:24:10,360
Speaker 1: What matter if the Texas go good to win like

1547
01:24:10,400 --> 01:24:13,360
Speaker 1: they did in Tennessee the last time the Texans were

1548
01:24:13,479 --> 01:24:17,280
Speaker 1: on ze road, so hopefully they'll go get a W

1549
01:24:17,640 --> 01:24:20,719
Speaker 1: on the road this week. Big thanks to Brandon Cooks,

1550
01:24:20,800 --> 01:24:24,280

1551

1553
01:24:32,520 --> 01:24:36,000
Speaker 1: tough season. It means more than you'll probably ever know.

1554
01:24:36,560 --> 01:24:39,160
