I felt like the Colts linebackers, and that 55 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 3: was one of the things I felt like watching the 56 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 3: teams that made the playoffs or that were, you know, 57 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 3: knocking their heads on the playoffs right there on that 58 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 3: on the door, like, the Colts had. 59 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: Really good linebacker play. 60 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 3: Franklin Speed were really tough, and then they can make 61 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 3: things really tough because the way they can they can 62 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 3: run and hit, cover, et cetera. But the respect they 63 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 3: had for CJ was just incredible. It was amazing to listen. 64 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 2: To fraternizing with all the different players. And a lot 65 00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 2: of people call it is that illegal temper. 66 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: It's the Pro Bowl. 67 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 2: You're allowed to talk to the guys. Right Someday some 68 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:05,839 Speaker 2: of these guys will it be free agents. We'll see 69 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 2: how that goes. Look flag football wise, because you know, 70 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 2: I coach a lot of flag football, yes, for a 71 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 2: decade now with my Sons, the play that he kind 72 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,240 Speaker 2: of called slash designed with Keenan Allen to put Alan 73 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 2: in motion.

I was like, I gotta watch this, 149 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:37,840 Speaker 1: and I was. 150 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:41,719 Speaker 3: Locked into it is a gorgeous performance for both of them, 151 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 3: and so it was good and she she liked that performance. 152 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 3: You could see your standing up in the crowd, which 153 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 3: I thought was pretty interesting. 154 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 2: It kept a fun weekend though, because the Pro Bowl 155 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 2: then that the Pro Bowl games. Johnny one note on 156 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,080 Speaker 2: that before we leave that topic. I think it's okay 157 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 2: you don't want the game anymore. I get it why 158 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 2: we can't have the game anymore. They used to really 159 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 2: play this game, but they don't do it anymore. Fine, 160 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 2: I'm thinking, can you move it? All back to Hawaii 161 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 2: because this reason and Orlando did a great job. They 162 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 2: had good weather that helped, that helped full stadium excellent. 163 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 2: But if you do it in Hawaii, I think all 164 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 2: the people didn't go. 165 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,239 Speaker 1: They're going to go. They're going to go to Hawaii. 166 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 2: Most people will take the trip to Hawaii with the family. 167 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 2: When they get a Loha stadium renovated Aloha stadium, what 168 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 2: does it have in common with a studio aestheca in 169 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 2: Mexico City. Both are being renovated. Yes, and until they renovate, 170 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 2: the NFL is not going back there. So maybe they 171 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 2: go back to a Loha stadium. It would be kind 172 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 2: of nice, I will say.

And it just felt like that sort of 192 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 3: rubbed off on everybody that was there. 193 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: It was not too cool for school. 194 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 3: It was not the old Pro Bowl, which is just like, well, 195 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 3: you know, I'm not really gonna rush against you. 196 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 1: You just kind of, you know, left the quarterback. There 197 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: were some violent plays in the old Pro Bowl. 198 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 2: In fact, the head coach here in the two thousand 199 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 2: and nine season Pro Bowl he played. 200 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. 201 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 2: I remember thinking that at the time, he's getting too rough. 202 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 2: By the way, did you see our tweet? Texan's Twitter 203 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 2: account next puts out this retro stuff JJ Watt at 204 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 2: the Pro Bowl. Yeah, yeah, shacking Alex Smith, and I thought, 205 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 2: oh no, because we all know it. Half in twenty eighteen, 206 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 2: but I looked at it closely. And if people have 207 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 2: commented on this and I didn't spot their comments, I'm 208 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 2: sorry because I didn't read the comments. 209 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 1: I just saw it. I slowed down the video or 210 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: just looked at the video a few times. 211 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 2: Alex's ankle it kind of it doesn't tweak, but it 212 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 2: could have gone right. Then I thought, JJ, yeah, this 213 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 2: was a premonition kind of play, and it's a tough play. 214 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 1: You think. 215 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 2: You watch a play like that, you're thinking, oh, it's 216 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 2: good they don't play the real Pro Bowl. 217 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 3: An right, absolutely, And the thing about you know, Alex 218 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,319 Speaker 3: Smith's real injury was that Kareem hit him at the 219 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,839 Speaker 3: same time. So Kareem was coming out of blitz, so 220 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 3: he and JJ hit Alex Smith at the same time. 221 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 3: But I had the same reaction watching him, like that's 222 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,719 Speaker 3: Alex Smith. But he was in a chiefs was that right? 223 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 2: No? 224 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: He was the chief then, well in the Pro Bowl, Yeah, 225 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: he's a chief. 226 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 3: Well why the heck why would he be sacking him? 227 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 3: And I thought it was AFC, NFC, Oh, here were they? 228 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 3: They did the draft sort of thing. I remember, they 229 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 3: kind of drafted different teams and did all that. But 230 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 3: watching JJ kickfield goals and then go out there and 231 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,199 Speaker 3: you and JJ. JJ could always be a problem in 232 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 3: All Star Games because if JJ is putting on the equipment, 233 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 3: there's no slowing him down. There's no seventy five percent 234 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,439 Speaker 3: in that man, not at all, Like Okay, look, we're 235 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 3: just gonna walk through. It's seventy five percent. Like, No, 236 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 3: it's either a zero or one hundred.

And it sounded as if casting 298 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 3: wasn't all that interest in him at at you know, 299 00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 3: at first, And he came and he did the read. 300 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: They were pretty happy with that. 301 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 3: But he said that he's he makes that comment and 302 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 3: he said once they started filming they realized that Sylvester 303 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 3: was playing Rocky. He then had this moment of oh 304 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 3: my god, I can't believe I said that. 305 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 1: I'd love to know who else was up for that part. 306 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 3: They said they were One of the things that Carl 307 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 3: weather said was that they were looking for boxers they 308 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 3: felt could act, not the other way around. That they 309 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 3: were looking for actors that actually had some athletic ability. 310 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 3: And when Weathers walked in to do the part, they 311 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 3: were kind of like, that's that's what. 312 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 2: What about somebody really famous. I guess they didn't want 313 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 2: that because he wasn't famous at the time. 314 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: Well, he did mention. 315 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 3: He did mention, you know Ali, But they're like, there's 316 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 3: no way they could get Ali. 317 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: But apparently Ken. 318 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 3: Norton was on the radar screen Ken Norton, what about 319 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 3: getting a guy like Jim Brown is already an actor 320 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 3: who could play a boxer for sure, and he's been 321 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 3: in a lot of movies, so he's familiar with the draft. 322 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 3: I don't know if that ever, if that ever popped up, 323 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 3: but that's essentially what Carl's Weathers ended up being. He 324 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 3: played a year in the NFL with the Raiders in 325 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 3: nineteen seven. He played the CFL for a few years 326 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 3: and then he got into acting at that point, so 327 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 3: he had done a couple of things, so he had 328 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 3: he was working on his acting chops at the same 329 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 3: time that he was finishing up his athletic career. So 330 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 3: obviously got the NFL played I think San Diego State, 331 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 3: so he had the athletic ability and then he I 332 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 3: remember seeing this years ago. He was talking about watching 333 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 3: Muhammad Ali film and just trying to emulate everything Ali 334 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 3: did and that was really his inspiration. And you watch him, 335 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 3: you could see it. You can see that part. And 336 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 3: then obviously the Braggado Show and just you know how 337 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 3: he went about it was he was perfect. 338 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: I mean you look down and you're like, man, I 339 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: don't know. 340 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 3: They could have come up with anybody better for Apollo 341 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 3: Creed like he was perfect. Now, they probably could have, 342 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 3: and Rocky still would have been great, but he was 343 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 3: perfect in that role as the villain who ends up 344 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 3: turning into an ally for Rocky. 345 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 2: Other things that have happened since the last time we 346 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 2: were on the air. Following the Texans campaign, the Tennessee 347 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 2: Titans have a new head coach and Brian Callahan, the 348 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 2: offensive coordinator for the Cincinnati Bengals. It still blows my 349 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 2: mind that Mike Vrabel and Bill Belichick got sh got 350 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 2: out of this job cycle. I guess Pete Carroll didn't 351 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 2: want a job, but that is really notable, and especially Rabel. 352 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 2: I get it more for Belichick in this sense, Johnny 353 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 2: that all right, maybe it's the Patriot way without Brady 354 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 2: and what happened? What have you done for me lately? 355 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 2: And that whole thing? And do we really want to 356 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 2: bring this in and how many years is it going 357 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 2: to last? I get those questions. I'm not taking anything 358 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 2: away from Belichick as a coach as opposed to many 359 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 2: people who are almost the worst thing that happened to 360 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 2: him is Tom Brady going and winning a Super Bowl 361 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 2: with brutes arians as his head coach. But we can 362 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 2: get to that at another time. But Mike Vrabel, if 363 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 2: Mike Rabel's really interested in coaching, it surprises me that 364 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 2: he did not get another gig. 365 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, and then that goes to your point. Maybe he 366 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 3: needed or wanted a year off. Maybe he needed a 367 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 3: year away. You know, Tyler is down with the I 368 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 3: think the Falcons. He had been with the Falcons practice squad. 369 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 3: I think he was down there. I don't know if 370 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 3: he'll still be down there, but ye know, who's to say? 371 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 3: You know sometimes and I can't I can't speak for 372 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 3: all these guys, but I think sometimes a forced break 373 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 3: is actually a good thing and just step away from 374 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 3: it and realize either a you know what, I can 375 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 3: be away from the game. Let me look at a 376 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 3: TV opportunity or some other way of doing this, or 377 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 3: you have this, I gotta go back. 378 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 2: Hang out with We were at the Greenbrier. And who 379 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 2: was with him at the Greenbrier as they were going 380 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 2: through their own personal region in their career. Tony LaRussa 381 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 2: was with him at the Greenbrier with Belichick just observing. 382 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 1: And Tom Crean was another one. 383 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 2: But I don't think Tom ever got back into coaching 384 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 2: the broadcasting. 385 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 1: I think he can look at it. 386 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 3: Tom Crean did go back to Tom Crane's a harbor 387 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 3: in law. He married their sister, So Tom Crean, Jim Harbaugh, 388 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 3: John Harbaugh, and then Jack's dad who won national championship 389 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 3: in Western Kentucky. Now, as far as Raabel goes, and 390 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 3: again I had a conversation with a buddy of mine 391 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 3: as I was driving down at the Senior Bowl and we. 392 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 1: Talked about perception versus reality. 393 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 2: He went to Georgia. What am I saying? He went 394 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 2: to Georgia. Preen did okay, sorry, So perception versus reality? Well, 395 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 2: what's the what's the perception of Belichick? No fun, no joy, 396 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 2: hard on everybody. 397 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 3: It's it's it's very difficult working with him. 398 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 1: Like that's the perception. 399 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 3: But then we bring in, we bring a Nick or 400 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:21,880 Speaker 3: we talked to Nick about it and he's like, look, 401 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 3: a lot of a lot that's out there is really 402 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,119 Speaker 3: not true. Is not the case? And it ends up 403 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 3: being a perception versus the reality thing. Now, I think 404 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,719 Speaker 3: the one thing that Belichick will not will not budge on. 405 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 1: It's just my hunch is. 406 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 3: Is personnel and making and being the final decision maker 407 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 3: nobody want to learn. I think he learned that from 408 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 3: Parcels and he obviously had that with New England. I 409 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,479 Speaker 3: think he feels that's the only way it can be done, 410 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 3: which I'm sure and as hard he knows it's not 411 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 3: the only way. But what what spot is he going 412 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 3: to go to where the GM and he have a 413 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 3: really good relationship, where he knows right away. 414 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: Okay, he's fine, he can't. 415 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:03,919 Speaker 3: The personnel I've got that would probably be right here 416 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,199 Speaker 3: because he probably would know what trust Nick. But that 417 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 3: obviously isn't gonna happen because what did Parcels. 418 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 2: Do in Dallas? What did he do in Dallas when 419 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 2: j dreok over as the personnel guy. So Jerry said, Jerry, 420 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 2: your word is final. Jerry back, no question about it. 421 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 2: Jerry backed off, and it drove him crazy. He drove 422 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 2: Jerry crazy. He even though he took them from the 423 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 2: five and eleven era to playoffs, drove him crazy, drove 424 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 2: him crazy. What I mean if you think by this way, 425 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 2: what if you maintained you maintained radio with me, you 426 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:34,640 Speaker 2: did your things that you were, you know, in the building, 427 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 2: but then on Sundays you had to you know, you 428 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:40,639 Speaker 2: had to be up in a booth and watch somebody 429 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 2: else call the games. 430 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 1: I would right exactly the position. 431 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,920 Speaker 2: That's what Jerry outrage and I get arrested for committing 432 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 2: a crime. 433 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 1: There was a murder in the booth, Yeah, murder in 434 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 1: the booth. 435 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 3: But but that's I think that's kind of the way 436 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 3: Jerry felt like Jerry had been in charge and to 437 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 3: get parcels. That's what he That's what he said, like, Okay, 438 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 3: this is what parcels want. I'm going with It drove 439 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 3: him insane, Yeah, and he didn't want that anymore. And 440 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 3: that's why I think Belichick won't end up in Dallas, 441 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 3: at least not now anyways. 442 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: But I think it. 443 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,920 Speaker 3: I think what it sets up for with Vrabel as 444 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 3: a pre agent quote unquote, Belichick as a free agent 445 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 3: quote unquote. 446 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll's still out there now. 447 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 3: I know what Pete and Belichick are both like seventy two, 448 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 3: seventy one, seventy two during your seventies. But with those 449 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 3: three as free agents, if you will, it's gonna put 450 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 3: whatever coaches on a hot seat right now, a lot 451 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 3: of pressure, a lot of pressure extra, a lot of 452 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 3: pressure to put on them because Kelly, I think it's 453 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 3: gonna be interesting. I mean, obviously being a big part 454 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 3: of that Cincinnati offense. I mean we saw it with 455 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 3: you know, Bobby coming over for San Francisco. It's like, well, 456 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 3: you know, it's not gonna be the same. Look, Tennessee's 457 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:56,399 Speaker 3: gotta is questions, is Love is the right guy? I 458 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 3: don't know, how do they formulate their run game without 459 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 3: Derek Canell. I like ty J Spears, but yeah, yeah, 460 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 3: offensive line. How are you gonna fix the offensive line? 461 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 3: I tried to fix it with some money last year. 462 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 3: Skoronsky a draft pick. You got to get more draft 463 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 3: picks up there. How do you fix the offensive line? Defensively? 464 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 3: I think defensively once they get Simmons back in the fold, 465 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 3: you know they they still are working in secondary. 466 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,440 Speaker 1: How long have they been working on it secondary? Yeah, forever. 467 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 3: It feels like they've been working on it forever. So 468 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 3: I think Callahan will take that offense to a different level. 469 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,640 Speaker 3: It's just a matter of how fast this levis pick 470 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 3: it up. How fast does he learn. I got to 471 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 3: get rid of the football. I can't sit back behind 472 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,400 Speaker 3: this offensive line and think I'm gonna have time to throw. 473 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 3: I mean, what do we have, like fourteen sacks against 474 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 3: them in two games or twelve or something like that. 475 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 1: Two games. I mean, that was awesome. 476 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,439 Speaker 3: That offensive line has a long way to go, so 477 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 3: to me, But what Brian Callahan does is about coaches 478 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 3: he brings in and then what personnel they're gonna bring in, 479 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 3: especially on the offensive line. That's when you'll start to see. Okay, 480 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 3: we'll see how this Titans team. I mean, and there 481 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 3: in lies the rub Brian Callen did never great offensive 482 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 3: line with the Cincinnati Bengals, but he had Joe Burrow. 483 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,880 Speaker 1: Yep, will Evis is not Joe Burrow. So it may 484 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 1: have to do the other way. 485 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 3: They might have to get the offensive line to get 486 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:09,679 Speaker 3: more better and get better play out. 487 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 2: Of the Waase Higgins Boyd mixing. Those tight ends are 488 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 2: no slouches. 489 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 3: Now name the now, name the skilled players for Tennessee. Yeah, please, 490 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 3: Now they looks hop. Maybe I think Hop's coming back? 491 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 3: Maybe I guess so. Nick Westbrook a Keene, is he 492 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 3: gonna come back? By the way, Henry, probably not. 493 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,360 Speaker 2: Since we're on the subject, we'll be at the combine 494 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,400 Speaker 2: in a few weeks here. But this offseason the Texans 495 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:37,119 Speaker 2: Hot Stove H Town Hot Stove a new podcast, H 496 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 2: Town Hopsteve, it is going to be cooking because all 497 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,399 Speaker 2: the free agents, I mean, you have basically three dozen 498 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 2: free agents for the Houston Texans. So what happens. You're 499 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 2: not getting everybody back? We all know that. So who 500 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 2: do you want back? And you and I have talked 501 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:52,400 Speaker 2: about this. 502 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: A little bit. 503 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:57,640 Speaker 2: But you know, Dalton Schultz, Stevens, Single, Terry, Sheldon Rankins, 504 00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 2: what do you do all these guys? You can't pay 505 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,680 Speaker 2: every body. Eventually Nico's bill comes due. Do you pay 506 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 2: that now and not wait for the big jamboree next 507 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,919 Speaker 2: year when he hits the market and then you have 508 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,159 Speaker 2: to play the franchise game maybe or whatever else you 509 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 2: have to do. He has another huge year and all 510 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 2: of a sudden the price even goes up more. Or 511 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 2: maybe he wants to wait and bet on himself, so 512 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 2: to speak. 513 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: Who knows. 514 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,880 Speaker 2: There's so many questions about this team and how they're 515 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 2: going to handle things. Because I'll tell you this what 516 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,440 Speaker 2: we always say, you got to get better. You got 517 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 2: to get better because if you're not getting better, you're 518 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 2: getting worse. Everybody's hunting for you now in the division 519 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 2: and beyond. The schedule's brutal. I mean, look, we could 520 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 2: argue about Marquee brand name recognition versus how tough the 521 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 2: opponent really is. 522 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: It's tough. They're all tough. Let's go. Yeah. 523 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 3: Absolutely, And I think what you brought up is really 524 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 3: interesting and just kind of getting the feel of being 525 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 3: down a mobile. 526 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: Every I would think. 527 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 3: Money being obviously a big consideration for guys in a 528 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 3: lot of times. But if you're an offensive free agent, 529 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 3: you have to look here. You have to be intrigued 530 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,639 Speaker 3: at least to go. I can go play with that quarterback, 531 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 3: I can go play for it that head coach in 532 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 3: that city with those income no state income tax. I 533 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 3: have to be thinking about play for the Houston tex 534 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 3: You have to. 535 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: And you get to come in here and be interviewed 536 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 1: by us. I mean we could be better than that. 537 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 3: I'm absolutely so. Every single Now that's just I mean, 538 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 3: that's offense. But if I'm defense, I'm thinking kind of 539 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 3: the same thing. Hey man, I can be a part 540 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 3: of taking that team to a different level. 541 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,120 Speaker 1: Just too. Victory speech after the Colts game. 542 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 3: Absolute, you get to play with this you get to 543 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 3: play for this guy, you get to line up alongside 544 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 3: some of these other guys and. 545 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,879 Speaker 1: Yeah check by the way, not just a speech. It 546 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 1: was interesting. 547 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 3: There was an article by tied Done I think it 548 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 3: was tied Done, and it was it was kind of 549 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 3: about c J. Stroud, but it's kind of about the 550 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 3: Texans too. But it was kind of about CJ with 551 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 3: kind of the underlying like, oh, the Texans are getting 552 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 3: better sort of thing. Robert Woods Dalton Schultz were both 553 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 3: quoted in that, you know saying, hey, you know, I 554 00:23:58,560 --> 00:23:59,959 Speaker 3: don't know what I was thinking, you know, taking one 555 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 3: your deals come to Houston as an opportunity, et cetera. 556 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 3: Now I don't want to go anywhere. Now, I don't 557 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 3: want to go anywhere. I want to stay here. I 558 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 3: want to be here. And I think that says a 559 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:13,159 Speaker 3: lot for what the McNair's Nick and Mimiko have built 560 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:17,120 Speaker 3: in this building. That players want to be here, they 561 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 3: want to stay now. I don't want them to you know, 562 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 3: hey they made ten million dollars or we're going to 563 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,679 Speaker 3: offer you four just because we know you want to 564 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 3: be here. Like no, there's economics involved, obviously, the business 565 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:33,119 Speaker 3: of football, but guys breaker want to be here. I 566 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 3: think it's massive because we went through a time a 567 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 3: couple of years ago where guys were like, middle of 568 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 3: the season, I want out of here, the middle of 569 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 3: the season, Like I want out of here. That's not 570 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 3: that's not happening, and hopefully it won't happen for a 571 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 3: long time. But there was one of our I think 572 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 3: it posted on our on our ex or Twitter or whatever, 573 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 3: and it was it was. 574 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 1: Will standing next to Laraman and standing next to CJ. 575 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 3: And you go, those three guys are under contract for 576 00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 3: three more years. 577 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: Nice, I mean if you think about that. 578 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 3: But that way, during a contract for three more years, 579 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 3: all of them, you're three Pro Bowl, so is Dell. 580 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 2: You got two more years with Christian Harris, who blew up. 581 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:10,479 Speaker 2: I believe you go on and on. There are so 582 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 2: many I mean guys to talk about, of course Stanley, 583 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 2: so there's a lot to look forward to, and we'll 584 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 2: be covering all of it all season long.
