He's every day. 5 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:18,919 Speaker 1: We had a lot of energy and we brought a 6 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: lot of spark for this organization. Five nights a week, 7 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: they hits keep on coming us out. The Texans say 8 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: they have it, and they go no, it's Texans all excess. Yes, sir, 9 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: welcome in everybody. John Harris, your host football.

Joined as always as always. 12 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,199 Speaker 1: I wish it were as always. Sometimes, uh, you know, 13 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 1: the general sneaks in with us and we have to 14 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: break up the due a little bit. But the voice 15 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,639 Speaker 1: of the Texans on a wonderful Monday, Mark Van Mere Mark, 16 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: how you do? Johnny're gonna start rumors you hope to 17 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: be the sideline reporter. You are the sideline reporter. It's 18 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 1: just that the sideline might be in the booth or 19 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: it stands, or in some euston or somewhere. I mean, 20 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: when we're on the road in Houston. We'll see how 21 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,040 Speaker 1: it all goes. We don't know yet. I mean that's 22 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 1: I get asked this all the time. You know, Joe 23 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: Buck said he expects he might call games on a 24 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 1: monitor for the NFL. Joe doesn't know for sure. I 25 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: know you might think, well, Joe's gotta know it's fox 26 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 1: to get a big contract here with the league. Joe 27 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: doesn't know for sure. I think everybody's waiting to see 28 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: how it plays out, because Johnny, you know, we're in 29 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 1: a little difficult area right now. Right everyone's just kind 30 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: of holding their breath, like these don't have a huge 31 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: spike with all the lack of social distancing that's been 32 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 1: going on in the last couple of weeks. And I 33 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 1: get it. I get the cause and the worthiness and 34 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 1: everything like that, but it's just as far as a 35 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: pure COVID thing. Did you see that video somebody posted 36 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: from Vegas? Like Vegas was just oh and it could 37 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: happened there. I thought they were gonna go with these 38 00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: spit shields with the dealers and and such. I saw. 39 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's the same video you saw, 40 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: but somebody was walking in a casino, and that video 41 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: could have been from a year ago, It could have 42 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: been from three years ago. You couldn't tell. I mean, 43 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:12,920 Speaker 1: I don't know how many people I saw in that video. 44 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: I saw two wearing a mask. And I've always wondered this, 45 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: like what what's the harm everybody in wearing a mask? 46 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 1: Like what's the harm in that? And if you think, well, 47 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna get sick, we'll think about the other 48 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 1: people across from you. Think about those people. And I 49 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 1: think that's part of everything since March she whatever, whatever 50 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: we started with this whole COVID thing through now, with 51 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: everything that's gone on, if we just at one point 52 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: started thinking about how we treat everybody else, Yeah, and 53 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: maybe we might be in a little bit better situation 54 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: that we've been in. It's possible. Although now the was 55 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,679 Speaker 1: it the CDC, you know, the who said that asymptomatic 56 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: carriers are not tagious or it's very very rare to 57 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: catch it from there? And I'm thinking what information I 58 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: could have used two three months ago. But I get it. 59 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 1: You'll learn as you go. I'm not here to be 60 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: political or science guy or whatever, because I'm not science guy. 61 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 1: I'm very amateur science guy on social media, and I 62 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: don't post about it. I just read it. But Johnny, 63 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: you mentioned the mask thing, and I full disclosure here. 64 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: I hate wearing a mask, and I don't know who 65 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: really likes it, but you know, when I first put 66 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: it on, it is, oh my gosh, I'm so claustrophobic. 67 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: And you know you've mentioned like CDC in the studio 68 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: and you joked about your own issues. Man, when I 69 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: have a mask on, I feel like like, you know, 70 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: and then and then I calmed down and it's fine. 71 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: You know, It's just a mask. I can't imagine exercising it. 72 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: Did you see what I wat tweeted out about these 73 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: visor shields that I don't know if they're being officially 74 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: recommended or not. I saw. I didn't. I actually didn't 75 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: see that from J j M. I have to I 76 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: have to look. But I saw that shut, who is 77 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: one of the helmet makers for the NFL. Now, there 78 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: have been many, there's there's vices their shut there's right 79 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 1: l I know the NFL cracked down on some of 80 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: the older style helmets, but I believe those are all everybody. 81 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 1: Everybody thinks well, the helmets all the same. No, there 82 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: are all different kinds of helmets throughout the league because 83 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: the ones that guys want to wear, different shape, heads, 84 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: different positions, all that kind of stuff goes into it. 85 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,159 Speaker 1: And I learned this a long time ago as a coach. 86 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: There were certain guys I even as a player, there 87 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 1: are certain guys that like certain helmets. Anyways, I believe 88 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 1: shut is still doing a helmet, but they came up 89 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: with this this visor slash shield that covers the face 90 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: from the forehead the top of the helmet all the 91 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 1: way down, and I was like, brilliant that. I mean, 92 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: it's brilliant. Now, well it's gonna take just like wearing 93 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: a mask, as you talked about it. I'll be honest 94 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 1: with you, Mark, I'm I'm the same way. When I 95 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:05,600 Speaker 1: started wearing a mask out and about I hate it, 96 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: I was like, ah, like it drove me insane because it's, 97 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: you know, the same things you talked about. But as 98 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 1: with anything else, you do it for long enough, you 99 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: get used to it and you realize, Okay, I understand 100 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: why I'm wearing this, and I've gotten used to it, 101 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: so now I don't mind going different places. It used 102 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: to be. At the beginning all this, I didn't really 103 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: want to go anywhere because I knewone's got to put 104 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 1: the thing on. It drove me crazy. But now I'm like, man, okay, 105 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: I could do this now exercising in it. I don't 106 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 1: know about that. That would that would be that would 107 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: be a whole different story. I've exercised a lot, but 108 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: I haven't worn it when I've been out. But anywhere 109 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: else I've gone, I've had I've had the mask on. 110 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: So um, I don't know what did what did JJ tweet? 111 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 1: JJ tweeted anybody who invented this has never played football 112 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: in Texas in the summer, something like that in paraphrase, 113 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: because Darren Ravell tweeted out the oh here it is, Yeah, 114 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: the same thing. I'm shut and JJ quote tweeted it 115 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: the cost US fifteen dollars for upper and work card 116 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 1: now and the replies to the revel tweet are hilarious. 117 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 1: I mean, people go right to work on. This is 118 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 1: the view from the helmet, and it's just like a 119 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 1: window that's completely flogged up. It's so true because if 120 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: you're I, this is one of the things that I 121 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: always worried about wearing one because I thought about wearing 122 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 1: one backgrounds in college. That's when they first really started 123 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,679 Speaker 1: kind of coming in the vogue, was in the early 124 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 1: nineties when I was in college, and I remember one 125 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: of the things that players used to wear with the sun, 126 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 1: remember the sunglass visor one where you couldn't see in 127 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: And then they outlawed that one because if something were 128 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 1: to happened, they had to see you know, you know, 129 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: see your eyes. You know, they couldn't see it. But 130 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: I remember quitting Koreyatte from texast m wearing one of those, 131 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: and it was menacing. I was like, oh my god, 132 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,280 Speaker 1: that's that's scary. So uh yeah, so these visors have 133 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: been around for a while. Yeah, it's like no tinted 134 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 1: windows allowed. Sorry, can't do it. We don't know what 135 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: you're doing in there. And look, they have a lower 136 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: option only, and somebody said, oh shut actually tweeted out 137 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: itself the company lower only option, albeit less effective, And look, 138 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 1: I get it because the eyes are uncovered, but I 139 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: think the nose is still below and anything coming out 140 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: of the nose would still be below the Mason Dixon 141 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 1: line and would go into the lower part of it. 142 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: So I think they need little windshield wipers too in there. 143 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: I don't know how you're gonna do this, but maybe 144 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: this is how they're gonna live, and they'll allow you 145 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 1: to do these face masks and maybe maybe even tinted, 146 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: who knows. But look, if if guys have played with 147 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: that in the league before, why is this a problem? 148 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: You know, if they've been able to get away, not 149 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: get away with it, but deal with it, you know, 150 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: power through it, why is this a problem? I don't know. 151 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure they're discussing a lot of different 152 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: options here. Did you see some of the protocols that 153 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 1: I know we're talking about this, the tears and things 154 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: they want the players to do once they get back 155 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: in six feet of separation and everything like that in 156 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: the locker room. You obviously are not going to do 157 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: that in the field. I mean, I've joked about in 158 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: the in the past that the offensive line, if you know, 159 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: the set guard tackle sixty a little bit here, Mike, 160 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: those are Mike Leats, splits man, Yes, six feet apart. 161 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: That's the only coach would before that would be Mike Leats. 162 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: And they're going, well, yeah, that's the way we've done it. 163 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: For a long time. We have six six with splits. No, 164 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 1: I mean I think once you know, I read that 165 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: actually right after our meeting and kind of read it 166 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: in full and just read the various things and uh, 167 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: you know, read where you know what we would be considered. 168 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 1: We'd be a tier three and I think we would 169 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: fit into category tier three. I believe what weird? Tier 170 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: tier three? I don't know. Maybe wait, who's tier two? 171 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: I thought it was Tier two was like GM. It 172 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: like it was like scouting. It was it was like 173 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: a video guy, the video guys like Tommy and Timmy 174 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: and those guys. Um, that's who would be in tier two. 175 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: And then tier three. It said literally in house media 176 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: is one of those groups. But the thing about it 177 00:08:54,559 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 1: was it said groups that normally don't have interactions with players. 178 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: And I'm like, we probably have more interactions in some 179 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: of those groups in tier two. I can promise you that. 180 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: But the one that got me as I started thinking 181 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,559 Speaker 1: about this mark the one that got me. And if 182 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: you wonder, when we're talking about the NFL and the 183 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: NFLPA together put out protocols for when everybody, they didn't 184 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 1: say when everybody's coming back into the building, including us, 185 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: But they said, here are the guidelines to follow, each 186 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: team must follow. And social distancing was a big thing 187 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 1: that the meetings. That was one that caught my eye, 188 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 1: that meetings. If you couldn't do it in a socially 189 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: distanced room, then you had to do it via zoom 190 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: or some other mechanism. The other one was six feet 191 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: apart in the locker room, and I started thinking about 192 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: training camp. I was like, how many locker rooms are 193 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: you gonna have to have with ninety guys in six 194 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: feet apart? Now, once you get to the season, there's 195 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 1: only I say only, there's sixty three guys in there. 196 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: That's I mean with fifty three guys on the roster 197 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: and antenna practic squad. And I can't remember what the 198 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: numbers are going up to. And I don't know if 199 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: it's this year, maybe it's next year. But they're typically 200 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 1: as a locker in between guys. Yeah, but that's not 201 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: six feet so I don't know. I don't know how 202 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: they're going to put that off. That's gonna have to do. 203 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 1: And are you sure about typically a lot of guys 204 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: have lockers next to each other. Well, I know there's some, 205 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: but but there's something. You know, there's some that have 206 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: you know, like a locker in between them. You know, 207 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: guys that have been there for a while, Like JJ 208 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: has got a locker in between he and who's ever 209 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: on the right side of him, maybe Carlos Watkins and 210 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,839 Speaker 1: the next him was DJ Reader, so you know, those 211 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 1: two were next to each other, but then there'd be 212 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: a locker room between JJ and the guy next to him. 213 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: So that that caught my eye, like, wow, six feet 214 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 1: a distance in the locker room during training camp when 215 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 1: there are ninety guys in there. And then okay, well 216 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: you remember all those blue lockers that they put in 217 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: for the rookies, Well those are those aren't aren't happening? 218 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: And then they are though I saw them out in 219 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 1: the hallway last week, and you're gonna see them tomorrow. 220 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,559 Speaker 1: But they were just I think they were in a 221 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: staging area. So they're gonna use them something they're gonna 222 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 1: be yeah, I mean they might be out in the 223 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: hallway or something. They don't have to sort of section 224 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: off the hallway to create extra room. And a lot 225 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: of teams are in this boat because when you have 226 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 1: ninety guys on a roster, and some teams will not 227 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,559 Speaker 1: max out at ninety, they'll be an eighty five eighty 228 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: because they'll say, look, we're just gonna go with this. 229 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: This is gonna be tough on a lot of players 230 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 1: who are fringe type players trying to show their stuff. 231 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: You've already lost OTAs and teams are gonna get need 232 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: to get right to it and without joint practices. We 233 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 1: talked about this last week, Johnny, does preseason rep action 234 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 1: increase for the starters? And I don't know was I 235 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: on with you? I think it was on with Sean 236 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,839 Speaker 1: and Seth when I mentioned, you know, watching the Pro Bowl, 237 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: I kind of saw the future of preseason games and like, 238 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: I know a lot of people are gonna like this, 239 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: but I felt like there should be maybe a thud 240 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: kind of element to preseason games and all wrap up 241 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: and look, we don't have to bring guys to the 242 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: ground of the preseason games. Now, A lot of people 243 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 1: are just balk at that and say, that's not really 244 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 1: a game. I might pay for these tickets. I get 245 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 1: all the complaints, you can imagine the comments, the concerns, 246 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: but I thought the Pro Bowl was entertaining anyway. So 247 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: that's just me, and I think the preseason game still 248 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: will be They'll be joint practices in a game format, 249 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: and they'll be safer than your regular or your old 250 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,079 Speaker 1: school preseason game. I think I think the fans can 251 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: live with that. I believe they can. But maybe I'm wrong, 252 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 1: Maybe I'm not eive about that. I think we would 253 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 1: be interesting. I don't know. I'm curious as to how 254 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: this is gonna First of all, one of the reasons 255 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: that you continue to watch the Pro Bowl is you 256 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: know every single guy in there. I mean their names 257 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: you recognize. Yeah, But if you're all of a sudden 258 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: watching the fifth string wide receiver go against the sixth 259 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:50,719 Speaker 1: string cornerback, are you still interested? That's gonna be That's 260 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 1: gonna be a question. Now you and I will be, 261 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: obviously because you know we're calling the game, but also 262 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 1: because we're always interested in things like that. But that'll 263 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: be one thing. Does it keep it? But here's here's 264 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: the other thing. What if what if in lieu of 265 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 1: a preseason game, you ended up having the joint practice 266 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,719 Speaker 1: situation that we have bring bring the fans in. Let 267 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 1: the fans come on in, because the thing about those 268 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: joint practices is there's so much to watch. You can 269 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: have seven on seven going on one end. You can 270 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: have inside drill going out another end. You can have 271 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: UM you know, you could, you could have a third. 272 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 1: You can have one on ones with wide receivers and 273 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,719 Speaker 1: dbs going on. You can have all that going on. 274 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: There's so much more to watch, and you would just 275 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: have like one big joint practice session put in front 276 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: of the fans. Now, I don't I don't know if 277 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,200 Speaker 1: that would suffice for fans. I don't know if they'd 278 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: want they'd want that. UM. But in lieu of a 279 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 1: preseason game, Hey, look, you're in a preseason game, preseason 280 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 1: week one. You're not gonna see Now this year might 281 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: be different, but you're not gonna see the starters week one. 282 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: Thinking about we went to Green Bay last year. But 283 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: during those practices we saw in Rogers. You saw Davante Adams, 284 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 1: we saw Da Sean, We saw JJ for the first 285 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 1: day until you got nicked up a little bit. We 286 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 1: saw we saw the big guys. Well, in the preseason game, 287 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 1: we didn't see them soul. Those fans coming in to 288 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: see the game, they didn't see any of that. But 289 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 1: we got a chance to see it during those joint practices. Well, 290 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: what if you move those joint practices in the preseason game. 291 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe becomes a little bit more, Maybe 292 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: becomes a little bit more exciting from that perspective. I 293 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 1: don't know. Wait, hang out, I could solve preseason right here, Johnny, 294 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: And this is it because you mentioned it. People do 295 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: like the joint practices because it's starters against starters, right right. 296 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: Coaches like it because it's more reps of starters against 297 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 1: starters in a safe environment. I'm talking post COVID COVID 298 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: world here right, Whereas controlled environment it is thud. But 299 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 1: we enjoy watching them because you know, you want to 300 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: see wat go after their top tackles. You want to 301 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 1: see stuff like that. You want to see Watson, the 302 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: receivers going against the top dbs, etc. So you're gonna 303 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 1: get that in a preseas season format, now, except we're 304 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 1: not gonna tackle Watson, We're not gonna tackle Aaron Rodgers. 305 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 1: We're not gonna tackle these guys are gonna wrap up, 306 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: We're gonna blow the whistle. Play over. Coaches will feel better. 307 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: I think the fans would rather see. All right, So 308 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: here's your choice. I'm Monny Hall, Wayne Brady. It's let's 309 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: make a football deal here. Would you take a half 310 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: of Watson and Company versus Aaron Rodgers in company, or 311 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: let's say the first game this year, Kirk Cousins and 312 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: company in a full half of thud starters on starters 313 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: or one series one series in a real game, and 314 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: then you're down to the second and third level by halftime. 315 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I know, I know it's 316 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 1: what I'm taking. I want to see I want to 317 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 1: see ones and starters for as long as I'm mean 318 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: the fans do too, and a THUD format versus I 319 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: mean the fans second and third teamers, maybe maybe fourth 320 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 1: teamers in a regular football preseason format. I think they'd 321 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 1: rather see the starters for a half. We've solved it. 322 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 1: I think you're I mean, you're right, the fans would 323 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: definitely want to see it. I was gonna I'm just 324 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 1: gonna say, I want to see the next level of 325 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 1: guys because I want to try and figure out who's 326 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 1: gonna be on this team. But yeah, I mean, you 327 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: know how you know how I am. I mean, that's 328 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 1: that's the way I look at it. I don't need 329 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 1: to see the starters. I know JJ Watts making a team. 330 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 1: I think that DeShawn will make the team in twenty twenty, 331 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 1: I think. So I don't need to see them, but 332 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 1: I want to. I want to see I want to 333 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 1: see what. You know, Look, if you were incorporating a 334 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: whole new line in front of the Shawan and all 335 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 1: these other things, and maybe I'd want to see it 336 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: a little bit. But even the whole with a bunch 337 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: of new wide receivers, I don't need them throwing it 338 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 1: around against everybody. I just like to keep them safe 339 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: and healthy and let's get them. But if they were 340 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: gonna do a joint session controlled, I'd love that. But 341 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 1: I want, you know how I am. I like to 342 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: see the second rung guys, the third run guys. I 343 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: want to see those guys get after it. But if 344 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 1: you do it, and we've done it, how many times 345 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: we've done it, you know, Atlanta and Denver and fourteen, 346 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: we saw the Redskins in fifteen, we had to Saints 347 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,160 Speaker 1: in the forty nine ers and sixteen. I mean, we've 348 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,360 Speaker 1: seen all kinds of different teams and we've seen how 349 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 1: effective it can be for you know, for the Texans, 350 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,880 Speaker 1: I mean, and then for certain players for the Texans. 351 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 1: So I like them. Aaron Rodgers doesn't like it, but 352 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: you know, I think from a preseason standpoint that that 353 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: would be a way. That would be a way I 354 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: think to appease your fan base to say, look, you 355 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 1: paid X amount for this. You are gonna see your starters. 356 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: You are gonna see the stars, unless they're banged up, 357 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 1: obviously you are gonna see stars. You are gonna see them. 358 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 1: But it's gonna be a controlled environment. We're not gonna 359 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: keep score, but you are gonna see a whole heck 360 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 1: of a lot more football things going on because it's 361 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:52,199 Speaker 1: a practice sort of thing as opposed to, you know, 362 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,120 Speaker 1: seeing what you're used to in a game. You're gonna 363 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 1: see them, you know, maybe run fifteen plays and then 364 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,400 Speaker 1: go off and do one on one. And I think 365 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 1: the fans that I think the fans that come to 366 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: practice joint practices, I think they love them. I mean, 367 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 1: I don't know about you, I love them. I think 368 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: the fans love them too, and I think they would 369 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: love a preseason format like that. See, I'm trying to 370 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 1: preserve the sixty minute clock though, and still play a 371 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 1: game and charge prices. I'm still trying. Okay, I'm still 372 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 1: trying to fill the stadium. It's a game. But it's 373 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,679 Speaker 1: a little bit of a different format. I like this 374 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl format. And you know what else I'm adding 375 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 1: that the Pro Bowl does that you don't see in 376 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 1: the preseason obviously, but it's a Pro Bowl thing. Two 377 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: minute warning at each quarter. At each quarter you get 378 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: a two minute warning. Okay, that is cool. Now I 379 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: get a two because they all want to practice it anyway, 380 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: So put a two minute situation automatically the first quarter. 381 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 1: And it's good for the clock management skills of the 382 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 1: coaches too. Two minute warning first quarter, second quarter, third quarter, 383 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,200 Speaker 1: fourth quarter play it like that. Everybody gets to practice 384 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: those hurry up situations in a game situation. So what 385 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 1: happened at the end of the first quarter? What happens 386 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: at the end of the first quarter with two Is 387 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 1: it like the end of the half? I mean, yes, 388 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 1: yes to too. Well, yeah, because at the at the 389 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: start of the third quarter, we're going to um, we're 390 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 1: gonna kick off again. At the start of the second quarter, 391 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 1: we're gonna kick off again, or we'll just spot the 392 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: ball at the twenty for the team that didn't win 393 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 1: the coin toss or that didn't take the ball first. 394 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: I like this. I like to see I liked I 395 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,920 Speaker 1: like to get into those meetings. I like this idea. 396 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,479 Speaker 1: Where why have you not mentioned this before? I don't know, 397 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:33,199 Speaker 1: it's just to me, it's perfect. They do it for 398 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,959 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl and they it's it's actually a lot 399 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: like the old CBA where you're just playing a quarter 400 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,119 Speaker 1: by quarter. That's really an old reference. That's for like 401 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 1: the Albany Albany Patroons fans out there, either Grand Rabbits. 402 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 1: How many CBA fans can teams? Can you name the 403 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,679 Speaker 1: Grand Rapids Hoops? Oh? Man was there? What was the Closes? 404 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 1: That was one George Carl Phil Jackson they coached there. 405 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: I've been to a Grand Rapids hoops game? Really? Oh yeah? 406 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 1: Quad Cities right, yeah, yeah yeah, Quad Cities. Man. And 407 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 1: then well Isaiah Thomas killed the league, but he would 408 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 1: kill the league, the league, the Continental Basketball. Yeah, and 409 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 1: they used to keep score, but you would win a quarter. 410 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: You could win quarters, so that way, if you're out 411 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 1: of it, you could say, well we could still win 412 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter and you'd still get them. Still get 413 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,160 Speaker 1: something out of it. Yeah, that was pretty cool idea 414 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: for a minor league. It was a good idea of 415 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 1: teams that could be fun, that could be really really fun. 416 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 1: The Baltimore Metros that has a completely different meaning these days. Uh, 417 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:43,199 Speaker 1: the Allentown Jets, the Flint Pros, the Gary Steelheads, the 418 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:47,120 Speaker 1: Fort Wayne Fury. There was a team in Gary, Gary, Indiana, 419 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 1: Michael Jackson's hometown, right, Lonnie Johnson's hometown, oh Man, have 420 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 1: a team in Garry. But yeah, that two minute warning 421 00:20:55,800 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 1: within each quarter, I kind of like it. Wilkes, Barry Bard. Now, 422 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 1: I will say in our in our Madden game that 423 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: Vander Kidd played, if we would had two minute warning 424 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 1: at the end of the quarter, we might have been 425 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 1: in some trouble because Texas drive to call up a 426 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,680 Speaker 1: quarter a quarter and a half. It would a touchdown 427 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,879 Speaker 1: before the cold seeming out the ball. We would we 428 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 1: would have been in a little a little bit of 429 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,119 Speaker 1: trouble with that one. But I think we would have 430 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:27,400 Speaker 1: been okay. Um, it was. It was an amazing weekend 431 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 1: in the United States with all that was happening in 432 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 1: big cities, small cities in Texas. Outside of Texas, it 433 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: was just an incredible outpouring of support, love, emotion. A 434 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 1: lot went into this weekend. It was absolutely and it 435 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: was just incredible. And I know, uh, Mark, we talked 436 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 1: about this a little bit in our meeting today and 437 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: and just it's you know, when I was going through 438 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: high school, and I'm sure you were too, you know, 439 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 1: we discussed, you know, this sixties and how turbulent the 440 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 1: sixties were, and you know, the protests that happened at 441 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 1: hate Ashbury, you know, out in the West Coast and 442 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 1: u you know, the riots in LA and things of 443 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 1: that magnitude. And and I just never felt envious of that, 444 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 1: but I always wondered, you know, what what happened, like 445 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: why why did those things happen? And obviously you can 446 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 1: learn a history book and all that kind of stuff, 447 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 1: but it really felt like moving it forward fifty some 448 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 1: odd years, you know, fifty fifty five years, just seeing 449 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 1: what the seeing the protests, seeing the NFL teams involved, 450 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: the Jags, the Broncos. Obviously there were a number of 451 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 1: Texans at the the protest downtown for George Floyd. I 452 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: don't know, Mark, that I can remember in my lifetime 453 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 1: a weekend quite like the one that we saw this weekend, 454 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 1: I think the whole week, the whole week. Yeah, certainly 455 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,919 Speaker 1: in my lifetime. Look, I didn't live through. You know, 456 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: one of the one of the photos when you talk 457 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,679 Speaker 1: about social activism and sports and really serious stuff like this. 458 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 1: One of the photos and I guess I've seen press 459 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 1: conference footage of it as well. Was Ali getting the 460 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 1: support from other African American big time athletes at the time. 461 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: You know, you see Ali, but as a Kareem Abdul Jabar, 462 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 1: Jim Brown, he was still lou All Cinder then I 463 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 1: think Jim Brown, Bill Russell sold and I forget who 464 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: else is in I'm gonna google it as as we 465 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 1: go to break here. But but that was huge. But 466 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,679 Speaker 1: that was one guy and a huge issue. With the 467 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 1: Vietnam War and everything associated with it. This is so 468 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:41,919 Speaker 1: many people involved and getting together and trying to make 469 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 1: a difference. Um. It really was very powerful all week long, 470 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: no doubt, Yeah, yeah, no doubt.

Colts, Yeah, 595 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 1: of course, Cowboys, Yeah, traditionally Raiders. I think very underrated. Saints. Yeah, 596 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 1: I think Saints are pretty good, even though they've got 597 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 1: to find a replace all day. They drafted Caesar Ruiz 598 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 1: Rams Rams really all they've been through last year, they 599 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 1: couldn't protect protect GoF upgrade nothing. They're garbage. The Ramps 600 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:40,320 Speaker 1: are garbage. Offensive line. I no, I mean, I'm just 601 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 1: gonna keep the Texas out of this because I think 602 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 1: it's it's been very hard for people to accept the Texans. 603 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 1: Have they got offensive line after what they've seen the 604 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 1: last couple of years. Narratives take at least a year 605 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: or so, Yeah, at least, yeah, give it, give it 606 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 1: a year and then we'll talk about this offensive line 607 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 1: being really, really good uh, No, Ravens. The Ravens offensive 608 00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 1: line is outstanding. Are you kidding me? I know, even 609 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,479 Speaker 1: without Marshal Yanda, Like, I get it, but Ronnick Stanley 610 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 1: and Zeus Brown are maybe the best tackle damnum in 611 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 1: the league. I mean, spirit center is very very good. 612 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 1: How you don't say the Ravens is started beyond me? Now? 613 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 1: I bring up the offensive line because the Texas offensive 614 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:19,240 Speaker 1: line will get a major boost in twenty twenty with 615 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 1: the return of Titus Howard and Mark.

But the 647 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 1: virtual meets have been good for us as an offensive lie. 648 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 1: We get you know, talked to all the guys again, 649 00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:00,040 Speaker 1: you know, get to It feels that if you're in 650 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 1: the meeting itself, but it's you know from the on 651 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 1: the phone app. But I think it's good for the 652 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,360 Speaker 1: rookies though, because they're getting a chance to you know, 653 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 1: learn their stuff. Because I mean for the veterans it's 654 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,560 Speaker 1: it's not it's bad for us because we've been through 655 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:18,440 Speaker 1: a system a year already. But for those rookie I 656 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:21,280 Speaker 1: think they kind of need that so when training camp comes, 657 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 1: they're not behind and they can at least be a 658 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,959 Speaker 1: step ahead. Yeah, last year as a rookie, you got 659 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 1: you got there mentally, I mean you were able to 660 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 1: start a bunch of games, and when you did start, 661 00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 1: this team did really really well. But compared this time 662 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 1: to last year, how much farther ahead are you mentally 663 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 1: in that that regard. I think I'm ahead pretty far man, 664 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 1: because I wish I knew what I knew. I know 665 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 1: now I knew then. And I think when you know 666 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:56,439 Speaker 1: more and you you study more, and it just makes 667 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 1: you play faster and play better. And that's my goal 668 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 1: for this year, just to you know, study more and 669 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 1: I know more. You know, I learned from the visit, 670 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:10,239 Speaker 1: like Laramie and Nick and Greg and Zach and I 671 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 1: just you know, I've been tuning in to how they 672 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 1: see football, so I can see it through the air 673 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,800 Speaker 1: view and I also play the way I play. Ain't know. 674 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: It can make me have a bit of second year, 675 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 1: no doubt. How are you feeling physically, because you know, 676 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 1: the season ended a little bit prematurely for you because 677 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:29,279 Speaker 1: of the knee, But you're doing okay. Yeah, sir, I'm 678 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 1: feeling pretty good. I'm still in the rehab process. I 679 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 1: have to be clear yet, but as far as, like 680 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,360 Speaker 1: you know, feeling, I'm feeling pretty good. And you know, 681 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:39,360 Speaker 1: I'm excited to you know, be ready for this season 682 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 1: and you know, I'm just I'm just ready to get 683 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:44,440 Speaker 1: back on the field, man, do what I can do 684 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:47,160 Speaker 1: to help my team win football. Yeah, And talking with 685 00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:48,800 Speaker 1: a lot of your teammates over the course of the 686 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 1: last couple months, there is that high level of excitement, 687 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:55,359 Speaker 1: especially on the offensive line, you know, left to right. 688 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 1: When you guys started tonsil sharping Martin Fulton and you 689 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:01,880 Speaker 1: you guys played in six games together. With that combination, 690 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 1: I went five and one. High level of success there. 691 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:08,280 Speaker 1: I imagine really high level of optimism for you guys 692 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 1: as an offensive line, isn't it? Yes, sir, Like a 693 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 1: coach has been saying, it's like one of the first 694 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: years you have five starters returning, and I think that's 695 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:19,880 Speaker 1: gonna be a big key for us up. Friend, you know, 696 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:21,680 Speaker 1: getting out that we got all those rips to get 697 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 1: to last year and just continuing as the six Nations 698 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:27,959 Speaker 1: an offensive line, we just gotta do what we gotta 699 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 1: do to protect the shun. And we know the Shaun. 700 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 1: It's a great quarterback and what he can do when 701 00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 1: we protect for him. So that's how I go is 702 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:38,360 Speaker 1: to keep him clean. And you know, we just be 703 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 1: some nasty oldignment of friend. Now we talk you and 704 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: I we've done this a few times, and I've seen 705 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 1: you in media settings as well, and you're a happy guy. 706 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,279 Speaker 1: You're a really nice guy. But on the field you 707 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:51,520 Speaker 1: bring up the nastiness. How nasty do you need to 708 00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 1: be and how nasty do you get? I think when 709 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 1: you're old alignment, when you're on the field, you can 710 00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:58,680 Speaker 1: be nice. Ult you when you want to feel you 711 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 1: gotta have a different mentality because you got to think 712 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:06,759 Speaker 1: about it. You is you versus another guy, and like, 713 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 1: if you let him win, your quarterback is the one 714 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:14,479 Speaker 1: getting hit. I go, And what we were being brought 715 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: here for is to protect the shine. That's how I go. 716 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 1: So when I look at it, I gotta do everything 717 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 1: I gotta do, don't matter what it is, to protecting them. 718 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:28,880 Speaker 1: Like Jose when I first got here, I'm his bodyguard. 719 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,839 Speaker 1: That's why I was brought in to me. So I 720 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:33,759 Speaker 1: gotta be nasty, I gotta be dirty. I gotta do 721 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 1: whatever I gotta do to protecting and that's what I'm 722 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 1: gonna do. You know, last year you had the problems 723 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:41,359 Speaker 1: with your knee, but you came back and you played 724 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 1: in that game in London. How important was that for you? 725 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:46,840 Speaker 1: Because I've heard from some of your teammates that that 726 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 1: really was a big, big deal to all of them 727 00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 1: to see you come back and it meant a lot 728 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:52,720 Speaker 1: to them. How much did it mean to you though, 729 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:55,280 Speaker 1: to be able to have that level of success after 730 00:37:55,400 --> 00:38:00,880 Speaker 1: playing through some some pretty nasty pain. I meant a lot. Team. 731 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 1: I just I just want to be there for my 732 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:06,359 Speaker 1: teammates and give us the best no chance to win, 733 00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,840 Speaker 1: And for me, I'm all about the team. I'm not 734 00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:12,320 Speaker 1: really about individual stats and none. I just want to 735 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 1: win and that's my ultimate goals to win. So I 736 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 1: know if I can, if I can have just this 737 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,400 Speaker 1: slight ability to go out there and play at high level, 738 00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:22,279 Speaker 1: I was gonna get out them play and that's my goal. 739 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:24,800 Speaker 1: And then once I felt that I could play, I said, okay, 740 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 1: hey coach, I want to play out I think I 741 00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:29,400 Speaker 1: could play, and he led me. So we went out there. 742 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 1: We won a couple of football games, and I'm you know, 743 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:33,359 Speaker 1: I was glad I was able to be a part 744 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,920 Speaker 1: of those you know, wins to help our team get 745 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 1: a chance of being the playoffs. You know, Larry Tunsel 746 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:42,040 Speaker 1: talked a few weeks back, how you know physically he's 747 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:45,120 Speaker 1: been working out with Deshaun Watson quite a bit this offseason. 748 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,240 Speaker 1: What have you seen from Watson as far as leadership 749 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 1: goes this offseason during these virtual workouts, these virtual meetings 750 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 1: that you guys have had, he just been showing the 751 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: leadership on like what he had spake from us. I've 752 00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,320 Speaker 1: been watching him. He've been working each and every day. 753 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:03,919 Speaker 1: I know he's one of his mottels is the work 754 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:07,839 Speaker 1: comes first and with a lot of people. You don't. 755 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 1: You don't hear that the word it comes first. Other 756 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 1: thing dance support was shun is all about him taking 757 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 1: care of football first and everything comes afterward. And I 758 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,480 Speaker 1: think as a leader, you know, and for me as 759 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:20,640 Speaker 1: a guy who looks up to him, I look at 760 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:22,840 Speaker 1: him and think, Okay, where it come first? You I 761 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 1: got I gotta catch up to him. I gotta be 762 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:27,680 Speaker 1: on his level for us, you know, to see at 763 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,760 Speaker 1: the level we want to be at. So him and Laramie, 764 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 1: you know, I talked to Laramie all the time. I 765 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 1: look up with those guys, and those guys showed me great, great, 766 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:40,279 Speaker 1: great leadership, you know. So I just only want, you knows, 767 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,960 Speaker 1: catch up and be on the same level as them. So, yeah, 768 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:46,200 Speaker 1: you've got a unique perspective on things because you played 769 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:51,399 Speaker 1: quarterback for a while. And obviously Deshaun Watson he does 770 00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 1: all that improvisational uh work, you know, and he'll make 771 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,239 Speaker 1: some spectacular plays that are off schedule. But a lot 772 00:39:58,280 --> 00:39:59,799 Speaker 1: of that would not be possible had he not been 773 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 1: put in this work right now, right Oh yeah, the 774 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:07,319 Speaker 1: stuff just Shan does is not normal life. The play 775 00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:10,839 Speaker 1: he made in the playoffs against the Bills. Not too 776 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 1: many Corbetts in National Football League for me then, but 777 00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,919 Speaker 1: that that just don't come about waking up and coming 778 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 1: out playing football. He practiced that stuff. He put into 779 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 1: work every day, he worked out. He's strengthened his lower 780 00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:27,280 Speaker 1: body and stuff to be able to do that. And 781 00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 1: what he does in off season shows up during the season, 782 00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:34,400 Speaker 1: So you know he's willing to become the corby he yesterday. 783 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:37,439 Speaker 1: You know, you bring up that play, how how tough 784 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:39,960 Speaker 1: was it, how challenging was it? How frustrating was it 785 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,360 Speaker 1: for you when you're watching that stuff? Like were you 786 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,439 Speaker 1: getting really excited? Did people have to kind of calm 787 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:48,120 Speaker 1: you down when you're you're watching the heroics of December 788 00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 1: and January there for a little bit. Yeah, when I 789 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:54,080 Speaker 1: when I saw that play, I was like, man, first 790 00:40:54,160 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 1: out Whodini? And I was like, man this. I was 791 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:04,880 Speaker 1: like Seane like literally is the most close quarterback in 792 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 1: the NFL, and line the players he made at the 793 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:10,880 Speaker 1: moments he made them, it will makes him so great, 794 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,520 Speaker 1: you know, like I can only like look up to 795 00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:15,440 Speaker 1: him and just you know, be thankful that I'm on 796 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:19,879 Speaker 1: a team with a quarterback who plays like that. All Right, individually. 797 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 1: What's the goal for next season? You said smarter, faster, 798 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:24,239 Speaker 1: you know a little bit of that, But what are 799 00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 1: some of the goals individually for you? Titus? I think 800 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 1: my number one goal is to be healthy, get healthy, 801 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:35,480 Speaker 1: and play a full season. That's my number one goal 802 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:37,759 Speaker 1: is to be healthy and play a full season. And 803 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:41,279 Speaker 1: I think number two would be be more consistent, so 804 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:45,920 Speaker 1: that you know, I can be the best tightest for 805 00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 1: my offensive line and for my team. And third goal 806 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:57,600 Speaker 1: would probably be I would say, just win football games. 807 00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:00,399 Speaker 1: I'm not too big on the individual stats. I say 808 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:05,160 Speaker 1: I just want to win games and win for my 809 00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 1: team and for the city, and you know, just do 810 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:10,760 Speaker 1: what I can do to put us in a bitch 811 00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 1: position we can be in. All right, there's Titus Howard 812 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,120 Speaker 1: with Drew Doherty and all of that is on Houston 813 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:18,759 Speaker 1: Texans dot Com and it goes off for a good 814 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:22,360 Speaker 1: ten more minutes with Drew's twelve questions, Drew's dozen Johnny 815 00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 1: and always great stuff from Drew and the players he's 816 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 1: been chatting with, and Titus what an ass said after 817 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:30,879 Speaker 1: being in the drafted in the first round last year, 818 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:34,359 Speaker 1: He's really played out very nicely so far. But he's right, 819 00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:36,200 Speaker 1: he's got to stay healthy. Wasn't able to do it 820 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:38,279 Speaker 1: last year. And I'm glad that he said that's his 821 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:40,719 Speaker 1: number one goal because if he does that is gonna 822 00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 1: be so tremendous for the right side of that line. 823 00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:47,279 Speaker 1: There's no question he is. He's such a key to 824 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:49,960 Speaker 1: this offensive line. I mean, Drew said it. When the 825 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:54,680 Speaker 1: five five guys up front, Tunsil Sharping, Martin, Fulton, Howard 826 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:57,719 Speaker 1: are together five and one, and when they weren't and 827 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:01,160 Speaker 1: there were some struggles. And this is not to you know, 828 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:05,960 Speaker 1: to point out ROGERI Johnson and Chris Clark didn't do 829 00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:07,759 Speaker 1: a good job. It's just those guys that are not 830 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:12,640 Speaker 1: tight as Howard and a healthy Titus is as he said, 831 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 1: he's a nasty, nasty dude. I saw him just bend 832 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 1: guys backwards at times last year. So there's just an 833 00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:24,359 Speaker 1: added element when he's on a field that is really 834 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 1: fun to watch and is gonna make this team really 835 00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:29,439 Speaker 1: fun to watch. Now, we're gonna go round the league 836 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,279 Speaker 1: next and they're about an hour before the show, maybe 837 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 1: at forty five minutes for the show. I saw a tweet, 838 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:37,760 Speaker 1: and then the tweet just it wasn't because of the tweet. 839 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 1: It was the news that came out of the tweet. 840 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 1: Week four, the Texans face the Minnesota Vikings. Will they 841 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 1: face Dalvin Cook? Oh?

And as I 951 00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 1: started to look at the Minnesota Vikings, I'm like, man, 952 00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:09,960 Speaker 1: this team, boy, there's no Stefon Diggs. I know they 953 00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:13,799 Speaker 1: still have Adam feeling and I'm looking at going man, offensively, 954 00:51:13,840 --> 00:51:17,120 Speaker 1: this is gonna be a lot of Dalvin Cook, a 955 00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 1: lot of Dalvin Cook. And no, by the way you 956 00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:24,600 Speaker 1: talk about narratives changing, this Vikings defense is not the 957 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 1: Vikings defensive two three years ago, and it's definitely not 958 00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:30,759 Speaker 1: the one we saw a twenty sixteen. They finished middle 959 00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:33,400 Speaker 1: of the pack last year and nearly every statistical category. 960 00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 1: They've lost Lynnville, Joseph Everson, Griffin, Trey Waynes, and Xavier Rhodes, 961 00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:43,960 Speaker 1: four guys that were key starters on the defense, their 962 00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:48,320 Speaker 1: two starting corners having combined five starts in the NFL. 963 00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:51,520 Speaker 1: And they gotta face Aaron Rodgers twice. They gotta face 964 00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:55,239 Speaker 1: Matt Stafford twice, they gotta face Nick Foles twice. They 965 00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:57,680 Speaker 1: gotta face to Shaun Watson. I hope you saw what 966 00:51:57,719 --> 00:51:59,399 Speaker 1: I did there when I snuck Nick Foles in there. 967 00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:03,400 Speaker 1: But you get the point. This team is not. I 968 00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:05,200 Speaker 1: don't know. I looked at it him, was like, I 969 00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:07,480 Speaker 1: don't know about this. It's gonna be a lot of 970 00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:09,680 Speaker 1: question marks going in. They should have a lot of 971 00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 1: ifs about them. And of course Kirk Cousins at quarterback. 972 00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:16,800 Speaker 1: But Dalvin Cook reliable, that's the guy. He's the guy 973 00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:20,880 Speaker 1: gonna run that Gary Kubiak offense. And then today we 974 00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:24,480 Speaker 1: find out he's gonna hold out. He is going to 975 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:27,880 Speaker 1: hold out Leon Bell, Melvin Gordon, running backs that have 976 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 1: held out before him have really, honestly, I don't know. 977 00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:34,800 Speaker 1: If you could say Levion Bell one, you can definitely 978 00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:38,600 Speaker 1: say Melvin Gordon didn't. And now Dalvin Cook is saying, Nope, 979 00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:41,000 Speaker 1: not gonna participate in any team activities until my deal 980 00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:45,160 Speaker 1: is done. Mark your thoughts, gut reaction back to Levion 981 00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:48,839 Speaker 1: for a moment. So he held out in a franchise 982 00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:51,520 Speaker 1: tag year, right, Yes, he could have made the tag 983 00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:54,560 Speaker 1: money had he reported, Yeah, I would have taken the risk. Obviously, 984 00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:57,440 Speaker 1: if he gets hurt, that's it. It's a big check. 985 00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:00,879 Speaker 1: But is it enough then? So he misses a year 986 00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 1: of income and then he signs a big deal with 987 00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:05,600 Speaker 1: the Jets. I just think missing a year of your 988 00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:10,040 Speaker 1: football career as a running back especially is really tough. 989 00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:12,800 Speaker 1: It's it's a tough decision. Look, I don't want to 990 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:15,400 Speaker 1: get into anybody's business. I don't know what I would do. 991 00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:17,400 Speaker 1: I don't have that kind of talent. I'm not in 992 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:20,920 Speaker 1: that situation. I have no clue, but I would think 993 00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:24,520 Speaker 1: that what would come into my mind is I have 994 00:53:24,840 --> 00:53:27,480 Speaker 1: five ten years to play this game. If that do 995 00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:33,759 Speaker 1: I really now? Next year, Let's say Cook holds out 996 00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:37,000 Speaker 1: the whole year. Next year, people are gonna say, well, 997 00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:40,400 Speaker 1: you sat out a year, but you're Dalthin Cook should 998 00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:43,279 Speaker 1: be pretty good. But Johnny, has Levion Bell even approached 999 00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:46,960 Speaker 1: where he was? I mean, has it even happened for 1000 00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:50,000 Speaker 1: him to know? I mean, I mean obviously he goes 1001 00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:52,600 Speaker 1: to New York and you know how Adam Gas felt 1002 00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:55,120 Speaker 1: about the whole thing. I mean, Adam Gas was like, hey, 1003 00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:58,560 Speaker 1: it's not what I wanted to do, but it's so 1004 00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:02,040 Speaker 1: there's part of that going on. But there was a 1005 00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:07,000 Speaker 1: pretty significant drop off in in what Levion had done 1006 00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 1: prior to and then what he did U in twenty 1007 00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:14,600 Speaker 1: and twenty nineteen. So yeah, there's there was definitely a 1008 00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:17,720 Speaker 1: drop off. Now financially there's probably as you look at it, 1009 00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:21,759 Speaker 1: maybe it washes out. I guess I don't know completely. 1010 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,239 Speaker 1: I don't think when I looked at Levion's numbers, I 1011 00:54:24,239 --> 00:54:27,480 Speaker 1: don't think it did three point two yards per carry 1012 00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:31,920 Speaker 1: seven hundred eighty nine yards. Yeah, so me production wise, no, 1013 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:34,239 Speaker 1: it definitely, it definitely was not there. Now I will 1014 00:54:34,280 --> 00:54:37,680 Speaker 1: say he was running behind Swiss cheese and a half 1015 00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:40,240 Speaker 1: with that offensive line. That offensive is the worst team 1016 00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:44,520 Speaker 1: we know that, you know, definitely a worst team, Yeah, 1017 00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:50,799 Speaker 1: Todd Gurley, Right, well, yeah, now Gurley, you can contribute 1018 00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:55,719 Speaker 1: a little bit to the fact that injuries, whether he's 1019 00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:58,080 Speaker 1: got that our third knee, whether that's a that's the 1020 00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:01,040 Speaker 1: line that we talked about, right, Yeah, it is not 1021 00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:04,640 Speaker 1: very good last year three point eight yards per carry. 1022 00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:08,560 Speaker 1: So after two unbelievable seasons, he goes to eight hundred 1023 00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:11,560 Speaker 1: and fifty seven yards in fifteen games. Three point eight 1024 00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:14,640 Speaker 1: per carry. Not the kind of season he wanted to see. No, 1025 00:55:14,800 --> 00:55:19,360 Speaker 1: I mean, in the Rams, I think when you I 1026 00:55:20,160 --> 00:55:22,400 Speaker 1: hate I hate to say this, I hate to say this, 1027 00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:31,399 Speaker 1: but running backs have become in this league spot No, 1028 00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:34,480 Speaker 1: it really is. I mean, it's they're almost like they're 1029 00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:37,200 Speaker 1: almost like paper plates. It's like, oh, it's a really good, 1030 00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:40,200 Speaker 1: sturdy paper plate, and it worked for that dinner. I mean, 1031 00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:41,640 Speaker 1: all right, get rid of it. Let's go to the 1032 00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:45,319 Speaker 1: next one. I mean, they're not that disposable, but it's 1033 00:55:45,360 --> 00:55:47,520 Speaker 1: almost to that point where you know, what if you're 1034 00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:50,680 Speaker 1: the Titans. And I thought about this after we had 1035 00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:53,560 Speaker 1: a conversation like why don't you try and I mean 1036 00:55:53,600 --> 00:55:57,160 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry. They franchise Derrick Henry, Right, why wouldn't you not? 1037 00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:02,560 Speaker 1: Why would you not just grind Derek Henry just running 1038 00:56:02,600 --> 00:56:07,400 Speaker 1: four hundred times? Yeah, because after four hundred carries, I mean, 1039 00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:10,320 Speaker 1: you're gonna pay him a second contract. And so I 1040 00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:13,200 Speaker 1: started thinking about college players coming to the NFL, college 1041 00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:15,120 Speaker 1: running backs coming in the NFL, and I really worried 1042 00:56:15,120 --> 00:56:16,959 Speaker 1: about John Taylor. The one worry I had about Jonathan 1043 00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:18,600 Speaker 1: Taylor was poor. There's a lot of tread on off 1044 00:56:18,600 --> 00:56:20,680 Speaker 1: that tire because of how many carries he had. But 1045 00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:22,840 Speaker 1: I'm like, wait a second, if you think about a 1046 00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:25,000 Speaker 1: running back now in terms the NFL terms of like 1047 00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:28,400 Speaker 1: four or five years, then who cares what they had 1048 00:56:28,440 --> 00:56:31,160 Speaker 1: in college? You know, who cares the tread off the tire? 1049 00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:33,239 Speaker 1: You know, you kind of grind through him for four 1050 00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:36,640 Speaker 1: or five years and then you end up getting another one. Unfortunately, 1051 00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:39,600 Speaker 1: that's just way the running back situation is gone. And 1052 00:56:39,640 --> 00:56:41,799 Speaker 1: so I think that's I think, I don't know. We'll 1053 00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:43,560 Speaker 1: see what happens when Derek gets a tough call with 1054 00:56:43,680 --> 00:56:46,319 Speaker 1: Cook because he's a second round raft tricks. It's year four, 1055 00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:48,399 Speaker 1: you only had one fully healthy year, and he doesn't 1056 00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:50,600 Speaker 1: want to blow it right, And I get and I 1057 00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:53,200 Speaker 1: don't blame him for going. I don't blame him for 1058 00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:55,240 Speaker 1: trying to get all he can. Know he's a running 1059 00:56:55,239 --> 00:56:59,520 Speaker 1: back that his shelf life is relatively short, so I mean, 1060 00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:02,399 Speaker 1: I don't blame him either. But this is definitely Mark 1061 00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:05,920 Speaker 1: going to be a tricky one to watch for the 1062 00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:08,400 Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings, and obviously we will be interested in it 1063 00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:12,640 Speaker 1: because we play the Vikings week four at Energy Stadium 1064 00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:17,120 Speaker 1: after Chiefs Ravens Steelers. Then the Vikings come Week four, 1065 00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:19,160 Speaker 1: So will they have Dalvin Cook or not? We'll see, 1066 00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:22,240 Speaker 1: but it's definitely worth watching. Mark. As always, thank you 1067 00:57:22,320 --> 00:57:25,200 Speaker 1: very much.
