Speaker 2: Welcome into a Friday edition of Texans All Access. And

3
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:09,480

6
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:16,200
Speaker 1: That hit you?

7
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:17,800
Speaker 3: My blood starts to boil.

8
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:22,279
Speaker 4: I start to feel really intense, you know, in a

9
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 4: way nauseust, but in a good way like Brian Cushing.

10
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 1: Nauseusts, like let's go play.

11
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, that kind of thing, because you know what this

12
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,240
Speaker 4: team does to me, Johnny, and should do to every

13
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:33,160
Speaker 4: Texans fan.

14
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,000
Speaker 3: These guys should make your blood kurdle.

15
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 4: Twelve times you have defeated the Colts in the history

16
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 4: of this series.

17
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 3: That's it.

18
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 5: Now.

19
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 3: Guess what, Demiko Ryans is two and one.

20
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:45,600
Speaker 4: He can go to three and one against the Colts

21
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 4: if the Texans get this one on Sunday.

22
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 3: That's not the most important thing.

23
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 4: The most important thing is to crush their souls, their spirit,

24
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,959
Speaker 4: make them question their professional choice. That's what you need

25
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 4: to do on Sunday afternoon. Should I get the pregame

26
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 4: locker rooms?

27
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 1: Yeah?

28
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 3: I think you could well to that end.

29
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 2: All right, now, we've been much more successful lately, yeah

30
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 2: against the Colts.

31
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 5: Yeah.

32
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:16,839
Speaker 2: Not perfect, yeah, but lately so since twenty thirteen. Actually,

33
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 2: you probably can move to twenty fifteen. But twenty thirteen

34
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 2: lost both games, in thirteen close, lost both games, and

35
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 2: fourteen close. We get to twenty fifteen, we lose the

36
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 2: Thursday night hassle.

37
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 3: Back in a diaper game.

38
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, but then we turn around and we beat the Colts.

39
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 5: Yeah.

40
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 2: Now that game is significant for this reason. And this

41
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 2: kind of goes to your point in a sense you

42
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 2: were talking about just put one on them. Let's go

43
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 2: listen to this. So twenty thirteen Texas have eight wins

44
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,559
Speaker 2: over the Colts. I think my math is correct on that.

45
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, because Kubiak won four of them, right, and you've

46
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:53,639
Speaker 4: won twelve.

47
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 3: So yeah, eight. Yeah.

48
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 2: The largest margin of victory in that timeframe of those

49
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 2: eight wins is how many point?

50
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 4: Oh it's not a lot, Johnny, they're all one score games, right, yeah, six?

51
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 3: Okay, there it is, they're close.

52
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 2: Average margin of victory in those eight wins is three

53
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 2: and a half points.

54
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what this that's nuts.

55
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 2: Twenty fifteen one by six up there, sixteen ten, twenty sixteen,

56
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 2: we beat him twice, overtime one by five, up there,

57
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 2: one by three, and overtime here twenty eighteen, we won

58
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 2: up there and Kaymie's late game field goal one by three.

59
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,359
Speaker 2: Twenty nineteen, won by three, twenty seventeen, twenty twenty two,

60
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 2: we won by one at the end of the game

61
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three, it was twenty three seventeen, but we

62
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,679
Speaker 2: gave that safety to him to take time off the clock.

63
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 3: So we won by four. And then we won twenty

64
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 3: twenty seven to two.

65
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 2: I mean, the last eight wins, that's a long time frame,

66
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 2: almost ten years of wins, and we've won by no

67
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 2: more than six.

68
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 4: That's why in the opening week game when the Colts

69
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:56,959
Speaker 4: had the ball late, I thought, and we talked about

70
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 4: it that week. Yeah, don't let this be an Anthony

71
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 4: richardson the ball in the final drive.

72
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 3: Not because he's so great at it, but because.

73
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 4: I don't want to see him make some weird play

74
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 4: and get a touchdown, a cheapo or a bomb and

75
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 4: all of a sudden, another one that Alex Pierce catches

76
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 4: or whatever.

77
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 3: I don't want to see that.

78
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 4: And you had a chance to see that, and it

79
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 4: didn't happen, Thank goodness. Because you got a two point victory.

80
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 4: But that's what this series is, Johnny, And that's why

81
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,800
Speaker 4: the largest margin of victory against the Colts was the

82
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 4: twenty ten opener.

83
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:26,639
Speaker 3: I would believe, oh maybe twenty eleven was even longer.

84
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 1: Twenty eleven.

85
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:31,519
Speaker 2: Twenty eleven, Ben take game. It was thirty forty seven. Yeah,

86
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 2: oh that's nice. Thirty four to seven. I would take

87
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 2: thirty four to seven.

88
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 4: See, I think nothing would really surprise me about this one, because,

89
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 4: as I say, the series is close, and these games

90
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 4: tend to be close. The Texans, coming off the performance

91
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 4: they had against Green Bay, being back at home, knowing

92
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 4: what's at stake here, better be on their p's and

93
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,119
Speaker 4: q's and not make the mistakes that have plagued them

94
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 4: throughout this season. Now, look five and two, you know,

95
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 4: give me that kind of plague. But you know what

96
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 4: I'm saying. Everybody knows what I'm saying, and the coaches

97
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. They want to play clean and better.

98
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 4: But to the cults, let's just talk about that.

99
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 3: For a moment.

100
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 4: What does this mean for them? What does this game

101
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 4: signify for them? This is their super Bowl? They win

102
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 4: this game and they are in it. They feel like

103
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 4: we are alive.

104
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 6: Ye.

105
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 4: Now, I know the schedule gets very tough for them

106
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 4: in the next few weeks, but then it gets a

107
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 4: lot more palatable down the stretch. And if you beat

108
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 4: the Texans in this building, you're gonna feel really good

109
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 4: about yourself and say, listen, we are in it. We're

110
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 4: in the division race. The Texans have a tough schedule

111
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 4: coming up.

112
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,159
Speaker 3: This is monumental for them.

113
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 4: They are gonna be at their sharpest, whatever version of

114
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 4: that you can imagine on Sunday against the Texans.

115
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 3: So get ready, be ready. Yeah, margin and victory.

116
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 2: In those three years twenty ten, twenty eleven, twenty twelve,

117
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,160
Speaker 2: all at home, beat them by ten, beat them by

118
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 2: twenty seven, yeah, beat them by twelve.

119
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 1: Yeah. And then it became.

120
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 2: Close contests from twenty fourteen on seven fives.

121
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 3: I'm talking both sides.

122
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,039
Speaker 2: This is just amazing how close this series has been

123
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:08,200
Speaker 2: since twenty fourteen. Colts won by seven, one by five,

124
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 2: then Texas by six, Colts by seven, Texas by five,

125
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 2: Texas by three, Colts by nine, Colts by six, Texas

126
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 2: by three, Colts by three. Then the playoffs had beat

127
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,720
Speaker 2: Us by two touchdowns. But then seven seven three seven

128
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 2: seven six, there was the blowout. Now the twenty one

129
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 2: season we just got whitewashed. But we are three one

130
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 2: and one against them the last three years. Yeah, but

131
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 2: this one, like you said, is it's different. It's just different.

132
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 2: I mean they're sitting there at four and three, we're

133
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 2: sitting at five and two. And as we went through

134
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,839
Speaker 2: the schedule back in May and we've gotten and throughout

135
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 2: the offseason, once we saw it and we're looking at

136
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 2: it and going, okay, what are we thinking?

137
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 4: I thought this was totally possible, that this would be

138
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 4: a very big game.

139
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 2: Yes, you know, I know absolutely absolutely. Not only that,

140
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 2: but the opportunity to go six and two. I mean

141
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 2: we talk of all the time about hey, if you

142
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,040
Speaker 2: knew this guy wasn't going to play, would you take it?

143
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,280
Speaker 2: Would you have taken six and two back in May

144
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 2: and said you're going to be.

145
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 3: Six and two, three eight games?

146
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 2: Of course, have two wins against the Colts.

147
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 3: Of course, just take it all down.

148
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 4: He said, I was thinking ten or eleven wins this year. Yeah,

149
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 4: because the schedule, right, that's it. Why the schedule it's tough.

150
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 4: You could be a really good team and go ten

151
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,039
Speaker 4: and seven, but I wanted ten and seven to at

152
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 4: least at least win the division. See I'm greedy at

153
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 4: least win the division. But it is all about the division. Look,

154
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 4: we could talk all day long about Oh, you want

155
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 4: to be on the Ravens level and the Chiefs level,

156
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 4: and of course you do. You want to be able

157
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,599
Speaker 4: to beat Detroit at home, of course you do. But

158
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 4: job one in this league, in this mission through seventeen games,

159
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 4: is be the top team in your division. So at

160
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 4: least you're playing one playoff game at home, and then

161
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 4: you take it from there. You know, be the top

162
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 4: team in your division, preferably get to the postseason healthy

163
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 4: and take it from there. Talk to the Chiefs about

164
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,479
Speaker 4: how that went for them. Numerous stories in the history

165
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 4: of this league. Now, you'd love to be thirteen and four,

166
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 4: fourteen and three one of those kinds of teams.

167
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 3: Yes, I agree, that is the goal. But the number

168
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 3: one goal first.

169
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 4: On your list is division, right, And that's why this

170
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:16,679
Speaker 4: is huge.

171
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: Well, I think there have been. There have been plenty

172
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: of years.

173
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 2: When what were we in, uh two thousand, two thousand

174
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 2: and nine, Yeah, it was two thousand and nine where

175
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 2: we were nine and seven and.

176
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 3: Bad in the division.

177
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, like owen oneion in the division, one in five

178
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 4: in the division.

179
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,559
Speaker 3: So you know it's and you're right, but you didn't

180
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 3: win the division. That's right. You had a winning season,

181
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 3: but you didn't win the Division dision.

182
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 4: The Cults rested their starters against Buffalo. You idiots. You

183
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 4: had a chance. This is another reason I hate them, Johnny.

184
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 4: The list is not just Texans colts games. No, No,

185
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 4: there's a long list of reasons to hate the Horseshoe.

186
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 4: And that's another one because it affected the Texans them

187
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 4: resting people in the snow in Buffalo late that season. Look,

188
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 4: they had a chance to go undefeated. They were undefeated

189
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 4: and did go undefeated. It's not just about the Super Bowl.

190
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 4: I know you want to win the ring above all,

191
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 4: but they had already had one. Okay, Manning already had one.

192
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 4: And now you can make the big history.

193
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 5: Yep.

194
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 3: Now you can make.

195
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 4: Sure that the seventy two Dolphins don't pop the champagne

196
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 4: cork at any time. That is a big deal to

197
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 4: go undefeated. In the modern era, we still talk about

198
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 4: how great the Patriots were at oh seven and they

199
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 4: lost the Super Bowl. David tyree. So I think that

200
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 4: they screwed that up badly and then they ended up

201
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 4: flaming out in the postseason, so serves them right.

202
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 3: Actually, they flamed out in the Super Bowl.

203
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 4: So they got to the Super Bowl but on side kick,

204
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 4: which would not happen today, and then opened the second

205
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 4: half Sean Payton and the Saints won it.

206
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's an interesting thought. Onside kicks can't have surprise

207
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 2: side anymore, no surprise. I'm still trying to figure out

208
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 2: what exactly happened with that fifteen year penalty in the

209
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 2: game the other day.

210
00:08:55,640 --> 00:09:00,959
Speaker 4: Nobody knows, Like the George Washington SNL skew, nobody knows. No, no,

211
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 4: you can have two to fifteen yards. It doesn't make

212
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 4: any sense, Johnny. I understand if there's a penalty, allow

213
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 4: the team kicking off to take those fifteen yards on

214
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 4: the kickoff and kick off from the fifteen or take

215
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 4: them after the return?

216
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 3: All right, But I think here's the deal.

217
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 4: There was no play run Like had they kicked off

218
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 4: and there was a return, do you get the fifteen

219
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 4: yards at that point?

220
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 3: I don't think so.

221
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 4: What if they were to run it back for a touchdown? Yeah,

222
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 4: you're right, that's why I don't know. I don't have

223
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:33,839
Speaker 4: the writing in front of me, and I should we're

224
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 4: on the air here, But I believe you're right. You

225
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 4: cannot take that fifteen yard chip and put it down

226
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 4: on the table after your return is over. So that's

227
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 4: why he had to kick it out of bounds. And

228
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 4: you know, you make sure you get the twenty five

229
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 4: because you'll take the twenty five for the opponent, you know,

230
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 4: over kicking off to them and try to stop them

231
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 4: from the fifty.

232
00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:00,319
Speaker 1: But at that point, I don't know. I got to

233
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: address that one.

234
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 3: But oh, you know why they do it. Wait a minute,

235
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 3: let me think about this some more.

236
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 2: Well, I remember I remember Frank Cross saying something to

237
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 2: me about a situation like that.

238
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:11,959
Speaker 3: Yes, because all right here it is.

239
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 4: If you kick off, let's say you don't assess the

240
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 4: penalty from the kickoff spot. You're kicking off from the

241
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,559
Speaker 4: thirty five. I kick it out of the back of

242
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 4: the end zone. You get it at the thirty, but

243
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 4: here's your fifteen yard ticket. You're starting at the fifteen.

244
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,559
Speaker 4: I think the league didn't want that. I think you're right. Yeah,

245
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 4: so they made it so you had to kick it

246
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 4: out of bounds. Give them the forty. Now you subtract fifteen,

247
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 4: go to the twenty five. Clear as mud, clear as

248
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 4: I'm telling a foggy day, I'm telling you.

249
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,439
Speaker 1: I after that happened and the.

250
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 2: Ball went to the twenty five yard line, I said

251
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 2: to you guys in Q he did that on purpose?

252
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 3: Mean, yeah, yeah, because at the time I thought, what

253
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 3: are you doing?

254
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 4: Right at the time, I thought, you got it at

255
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 4: the fifty emy you're good enough to like punt it

256
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 4: to the one from there.

257
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 2: And that was that was kind of my cue, my giveaway,

258
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:03,319
Speaker 2: Like he doesn't. I've talked to Kami about this, and

259
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 2: he was he was talking about how at one point

260
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 2: and they were kind of practicing all this, yeah, that

261
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 2: they were experimenting with different things, and at one point,

262
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 2: I guess Frank Ross walked over to him and said, well, okay,

263
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 2: now just shank When he looked at him, like, what

264
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,199
Speaker 2: do you mean, like, just shank it. I can't just

265
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 2: shank it. I'm not gonna just shank it at all.

266
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's a big game on Sunday, There's no

267
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,560
Speaker 2: doubt about that. One more point on that. It's kind

268
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:30,679
Speaker 2: of harder than you think.

269
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 4: Sneaky, more difficult to kick it out of bounce where

270
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 4: he wanted to kick it out of bounce.

271
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 1: But I knew, I knew.

272
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 2: I knew it as soon as above was at A

273
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,200
Speaker 2: twenty five. Was like, he did that on purpose. I

274
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 2: didn't know the rule, but I was like, he did

275
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 2: it on purpose.

276
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 4: And we were doing our trading camp shows right field

277
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 4: side when they were practicing special teams, which was more

278
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 4: enjoyable this year because of the dynamic kickoff and watching

279
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 4: him practice dwinky kickoffs like trying to just get it

280
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 4: to like die inside the tent was really interesting actually,

281
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,439
Speaker 4: you know, relative to special teams practice.

282
00:11:59,280 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 1: No doubt.

283
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 2: Now it's a big game for Demico Ryans and his

284
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 2: coaching staff. But Demiko Stepton Studio to give some pregame

285
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 2: vibes to Mark.

286
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 1: Here we go, coach.

287
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 4: We noticed that you like to practice indoors before a

288
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 4: lot of home games.

289
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 3: What do you get out of.

290
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 7: That, Yeah, practicing inside.

291
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 8: I just want our guys to get used to the

292
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 8: surface again we're out on the grass off that we

293
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 8: get used to the surface and get used to scoring

294
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 8: testdowns in our ends. One right mentioned that the guys

295
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,319
Speaker 8: fly around pretty fast, and it's quick as easy.

296
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 7: We don't have to walk across the streets. Just a

297
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 7: fast Friday.

298
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:30,840
Speaker 3: Fast Friday.

299
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 4: You like that, Well, it's going to be a fast

300
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 4: Sunday maybe against the Indianapolis Colts. As you have to

301
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 4: stop the ground game Jonathan Taylor, Anthony Richardson. What about

302
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,239
Speaker 4: the unpredictability of Richardson running with the football coach.

303
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 8: Yeah, guys have to be where they're supposed to be.

304
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 8: You have to be very disciplined playing against them. First

305
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 8: and foremost, it's stopping Jonathan Taylor, right, and then we

306
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,079
Speaker 8: have everybody assigned and stopping Anthony richards So he can

307
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 8: pull the ball down, he can go anywhere, So everybody

308
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 8: we have to fly around truly swarm this week, and

309
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 8: the run game is important, not only defensively but also offensively.

310
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 8: We have to try to control the game by running

311
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 8: the ball. Had a great out in our first game

312
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 8: versus these guys. We're gonna count on Joe again, see

313
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 8: if he can get going.

314
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 4: What about defensively, Buckner back, and they're tough to block

315
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 4: up front?

316
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 8: Yeah, really tough. Buckner and Grover, two huge guys, tough

317
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 8: to move. It's gonna be a lot of work, and

318
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:24,079
Speaker 8: it's gonna be about our offensive line just really staying attached.

319
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 8: They're gonna be on the guys, but can't you stay

320
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,559
Speaker 8: attached to attached and finish the down allowing Joe to

321
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 8: get through the hole to be one on one with

322
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 8: the Staateties.

323
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 4: It feels like we play these guys every other week.

324
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 4: So what about new wrinkles you might expect from them

325
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,280
Speaker 4: or is it everybody trying to do what they do well?

326
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 8: I think the newest wrinkle what we will see. It's

327
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 8: just been an uptick in the quarterback runs with Anthony.

328
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 8: That's one thing that we've seen. And I think when

329
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 8: you play a team and you know a team, they're

330
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 8: gonna be they're gonna stick to what they know right,

331
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 8: It's gonna be vanilla. They're not gonna try to mess

332
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 8: it up. They're gonna be waiting on us to kind

333
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 8: of screw it up, which we're not doing. Like, we

334
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 8: just have to execute who we're supposed to be and

335
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:04,440
Speaker 8: we have to finish.

336
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 7: That's it.

337
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 8: That's the thing from our last week we didn't finish.

338
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 8: This week could be all about finishing.

339
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 3: How good is it to be home for the first time?

340
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 3: In a while.

341
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,200
Speaker 4: It feels like it's been a while since you played

342
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 4: it at RG and I know you want that crowd.

343
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 7: Man, such a relief to be back home.

344
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 8: We're excited to be home and excited to be in

345
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 8: front of our crowd again.

346
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 7: Really love the energy.

347
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 8: Our stadium has been great all year, so we're excited

348
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 8: to feel this energy from our fans again and we're

349
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 8: excited to finish with the win.

350
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 3: One more for you.

351
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 4: Any nuances on special teams we need to be aware

352
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 4: of against the Colts.

353
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 8: Biggest thing on their special teams. You know they're very aggressive,

354
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 8: it's on their punt rush unit. As you saw the

355
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 8: first week. They guide us with the block punts, So

356
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 8: we have to be doing a great job in our

357
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 8: punt protection and covering and again in the punt return game.

358
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 8: For us, we have to find a way to get

359
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 8: an explosive right, and it's all our guys on the

360
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 8: perimeter making sure we block to the whistle and give

361
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 8: our returners some space so we can create an explosive.

362
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 4: Great stuff, Thanks a lot, coach, good luck. That's coach

363
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 4: Tamiko Ryans. Let's go back outside to Sean and seth

364
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 4: all right.

365
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 2: That was great stuff right there with Mark and Demico

366
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 2: as always, And when you get a coach, get a player,

367
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 2: and this week that player is rookie Kaylin Bullock. Three

368
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 2: interceptions thus far, He's halfway to Dante Robinson's six, which

369
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 2: is the rookie record. And we're not halfway through the

370
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 2: season yet, so Kaylen can get four, get one this weekend.

371
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 2: Well he can be more than halfway there, that would

372
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 2: be kind of nice. He stepped in the hot seat

373
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 2: with Drew Doherty.

374
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 9: Thanks so much, Fellows. We've got safety Kaylin Bullock with

375
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 9: us right now. You're a great guy to talk to

376
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 9: this week because you saw the Colts in week one.

377
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 7: You're also a rookie.

378
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 9: There's a lot to get to, but let's start with

379
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 9: you from week one to now, at the basic midway

380
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 9: point of the season. How are you different as a player.

381
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 10: I'm out there, I'm more comfortable out there, play faster

382
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 10: than week one.

383
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 7: I know what to expect.

384
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 10: I think the older guys that come from getting help

385
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 10: from my vets in my room just make sure I

386
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 10: prepare every single week and makes or once I step

387
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 10: on the field, I've go out there and play my game.

388
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 9: That's exciting news to hear because from really OTAs when

389
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 9: you came out here, you look comfortable and you look

390
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 9: like you were playing fast then, so you think it's

391
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 9: actually progressive over the course of the last two months.

392
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 5: Huh Yeah.

393
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 10: I would just say from preseason to now, just being

394
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 10: dialed into the playbook and knowing what to expect and

395
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 10: just learning every single day the game of football. Like

396
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 10: I said, I got smart vets in my room who

397
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 10: teaches me every single day and what to expect on

398
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 10: certain downs with the offense gonna run on this play

399
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 10: and this down and distance. So I think just having

400
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 10: that knowledge it helps me go out there and play fast.

401
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 9: All right, So what are those vets, What are the coaches,

402
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 9: what are they all saying? What's the message this week?

403
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 9: Coming off what happened in Green Bay? Coming up with

404
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 9: the Colts on Sunday.

405
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 10: We know this is a big week for us, especially

406
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 10: it's a division game. We know this is fighting for

407
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 10: number one spot in the division. So us on the

408
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 10: defensive side, we're trying to be dialed in and we

409
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 10: know they like to throw shots like they did that

410
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 10: first game, especially for the DBS in the back end.

411
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,120
Speaker 10: So our message to ourselves is make sure we're locked

412
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 10: in every single play, make sure we're communicating, and make

413
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 10: sure we just do our job and we know our

414
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 10: better's gonna do their job.

415
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 9: Yeah, as somebody who's been around the ball quite a

416
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 9: bit this year, you got to pick against the Colts,

417
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 9: then you got to pick this last week. You like

418
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:08,639
Speaker 9: that that they take shots, don't you?

419
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:08,920
Speaker 5: Yeah?

420
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:11,160
Speaker 7: I love that. Give me an opportunity to get into

421
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 7: a pick.

422
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 9: Have you seen on tape from week one to now

423
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 9: he said this will be his sixth start Anthony Richardson.

424
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 9: Have you seen much different in his game or is

425
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 9: it kind of what he's been doing all along?

426
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,120
Speaker 10: I would say it's kind of what he's been doing

427
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,199
Speaker 10: all along from week one to now, and seem he

428
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,080
Speaker 10: got I think banged up a little bit, so he's

429
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:30,640
Speaker 10: been out a little bit. But I think from week

430
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,080
Speaker 10: one to now it's kind of been the same quarterback.

431
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 10: We know everybody coming here and try to.

432
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,639
Speaker 9: Do Michael Pittman Junior, Alex Peerce a little bit of

433
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 9: Josh downs, but they get the lion's share of that

434
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 9: trio of the catches.

435
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 7: What are the challenges that they present Alex experience.

436
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,720
Speaker 10: I think he's the guy that's gonna take the roof off.

437
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:49,159
Speaker 10: Blazing guy, Michael Pittman, he's more of a possessive catcher,

438
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 10: big guy. And Josh down here, he's a gadget guy.

439
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 10: They move him around a lot. And that's the notes

440
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 10: that we got on them guys, and especially from playing them.

441
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 9: The run game. When you have a guy like Jonathan Taylor,

442
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 9: who did practice on Wednesday, probably gonna suit up, that's

443
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 9: a guy everyone has to be aware of, right.

444
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 10: Yeah, exactly, because we know what he's capable of doing

445
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 10: that backfield. I think he's one of the best backs

446
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,879
Speaker 10: we didn't played so far this year, and we know

447
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,119
Speaker 10: we're about to see him again just coming up weekend,

448
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 10: so we know we got to keep him contained. We

449
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 10: can't let him go off.

450
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 9: What sort of differences on a game day at noon

451
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,360
Speaker 9: do you have in the NFL versus what you're doing

452
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 9: last year or the few years before.

453
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:28,520
Speaker 10: At USC preparation wise, I'll probably say at noon, there's

454
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 10: no there's kind of no difference. When you wake up

455
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 10: it's time to go play ball. There's there's no difference

456
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,639
Speaker 10: from there is in college. In noon, you wake up,

457
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 10: get on that bus and it's time to go shop

458
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:38,880
Speaker 10: up and go play football.

459
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:40,880
Speaker 9: You still lead the same stuff, listening to the same

460
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 9: things on the on the headphones.

461
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,439
Speaker 10: Yeah, I'll probably say as to the same music. And

462
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 10: I've changed up my eating habits though from college. Oh yeah,

463
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,159
Speaker 10: so I don't eat a lot more junk food than

464
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 10: I did in college.

465
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:51,439
Speaker 5: College.

466
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 10: I kind of was is eating whatever I want before

467
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 10: the game and go out there and play.

468
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:55,640
Speaker 1: Well.

469
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 9: Good for you, because some of us haven't moved beyond

470
00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 9: that junk food from college. One last thing, play at home.

471
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,159
Speaker 9: That's gotta be nice. You've been away from NRG Stadium

472
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,000
Speaker 9: the last couple of weeks. What does the crowd noise

473
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 9: as a defender, as a safety do for you that

474
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,520
Speaker 9: you like? What do you think about it? When when

475
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 9: it's that loud in there.

476
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 10: It brings jus to me, especially to me, And once

477
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,159
Speaker 10: I hear the crowd get loud, it brings juics and

478
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,959
Speaker 10: it mess up the offense too, their communication be all.

479
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 10: But for me, that just get me ready that I'm

480
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 10: ready to go play once I hear that crowd get

481
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,440
Speaker 10: the yelling, especially NRG.

482
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 9: Rookie safety Kayln Bullock. Best of luck this afternoon, Hope,

483
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 9: you get another pick, You're gonna get your chances against

484
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 9: this Colts's football team.

485
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 2: Yes, I appreciate it all right, Dimiko Ryans Kaylen Bullock.

486
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,360
Speaker 2: I think those two are gonna end up being tied together.

487
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 2: And it is what I mean by that mark that

488
00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:41,919
Speaker 2: you know, Bullock was a guy sitting there in the

489
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:45,120
Speaker 2: third round with a ton of talent, did not.

490
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 1: Have a great last year at USC.

491
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 2: In large part, I think some of the defensive issues

492
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 2: for USC were exposed, and then Kaylen struggled as a tackler.

493
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,879
Speaker 2: But to Miko in his scouting staff and everybody went

494
00:19:58,000 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 2: kind of beneath the surface a little bit. They're like,

495
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,720
Speaker 2: this guy's got speed, this guy's got range. What we're

496
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 2: looking for out of a ballhawk is that guy he's it? Well,

497
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,639
Speaker 2: you know he's got to work on tackling. That's something

498
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 2: that you can work on. You can get better, you

499
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 2: can get a little bit bigger, you can get a

500
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 2: little bit thicker. But I heard you guys Sean Seth

501
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:22,439
Speaker 2: talking about Calevin Bullock this morning, and it just I

502
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 2: feel much better with him back there because of the

503
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,399
Speaker 2: way that he plays the ball in all situations. And

504
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 2: I know they were kind of talking about that throw

505
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 2: to Tucker Craft, and you know how Bullock was just

506
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 2: almost like we've had safeties that wouldn't even have sniffed

507
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 2: that they would even got close. And Bullock's a rookie.

508
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 2: Almost call him the freshman. He's a rookie, and he

509
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 2: nearly picked that one off. And who knows what happens

510
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 2: at that point if he picks that off and keeps

511
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 2: him out of the end zone on that one.

512
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 3: But he plays a massive role, especially.

513
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,680
Speaker 2: Because of what Anthony Richardson did to us last time,

514
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 2: just hauling off and throwing it as far as he can.

515
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 2: And we may not have the we don't have quite

516
00:20:59,920 --> 00:21:03,679
Speaker 2: the athlete back there last the first time that we

517
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 2: have in Kayle the Bullock, and maybe Bullock.

518
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 3: Is back there.

519
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 2: Who knows this, but I think he's going to be

520
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 2: in the spotlight in this game. So I'm glad you

521
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:10,360
Speaker 2: had a chance to talk to him.

522
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,879
Speaker 4: Odds that he gets a pick in this game, but

523
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,400
Speaker 4: got one against Richardson in the first in the first game, right,

524
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 4: so so the ball's going to be in the air

525
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 4: at some point. This is not a big prediction, but

526
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 4: you know, Richardson, Johnny, he tends to throw it up

527
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:30,120
Speaker 4: to who and Bullock can be there, and the pressure

528
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 4: that the Texans are getting. I like Bullock's chances or

529
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,440
Speaker 4: somebody's chances. These are so hard to predict. I don't

530
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,920
Speaker 4: know what Vegas would do with that, but I would

531
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 4: say that there's like a twenty five to thirty percent

532
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 4: chance minimum that Bullock gets an interception in this game.

533
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 3: Has a good op for one. That's the best way

534
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:46,359
Speaker 3: of saying.

535
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:47,880
Speaker 2: I think he's having He's going to have a really

536
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 2: good opportunity to make one. I think with Downs Josh

537
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,680
Speaker 2: Down's back, I think my original thought back to week

538
00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 2: one was that Downs would be a guy that richards

539
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:05,160
Speaker 2: would look to little short, quick routes where Richardson's footwork

540
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 2: on those sort of routes is actually okay, it's where

541
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 2: he has to hold the ball longer. When he holds

542
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 2: the ball longer, then things start going askew and all

543
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 2: that kind of stuff. But hopefully his confidence has been shaken.

544
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 2: This guy's completing forty eight point five percent.

545
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 3: Of his passes. Yeah, that's not good. Last I checked.

546
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 2: I don't even there are no words for that in

547
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 2: the English language, for what that should be in the NFL.

548
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,640
Speaker 2: You can't complete forty eight percent forty eight point five

549
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 2: percent of your throws.

550
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 7: You can.

551
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,560
Speaker 4: I'll say one thing about him, though, and about this

552
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 4: whole situation versus say Will Levis. And I know Richardson

553
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 4: was drafted much higher than will Levis, but the team's better,

554
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 4: the organization's better, and I feel this kind of patience

555
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 4: and unconditional love from the cults toward Richardson.

556
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:55,400
Speaker 3: I agree with that, where.

557
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,440
Speaker 4: It's like, it's okay, buddy, it's okay, we know he's

558
00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 4: gonna make mistakes. Just go out there and be you

559
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:03,239
Speaker 4: and try your best make plays. He's got Flacco behind him.

560
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 4: I'm sure there are many Colts fans who feel like,

561
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 4: what are we doing We got Joe flaccoh we can

562
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:07,439
Speaker 4: win with Joe Flacco.

563
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 3: How are we doing this? Why are we doing this?

564
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 4: You're doing it to see what the upside is of

565
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 4: Anthony Richardson, and they got to play this very carefully.

566
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 3: But from the outside looking in, I feel like he's.

567
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:21,440
Speaker 4: Supported and there's always pressure, but it's not the same

568
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 4: kind of pressure as there might be on some other

569
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 4: rookie quarterbacks. It just feels different. Johnny and maybe I'm

570
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 4: wrong about that. That's my interpretation.

571
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 2: Well, I also think that, and I'm curious how the

572
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,359
Speaker 2: Colts are going to handle this hit Fourteen rushes the

573
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 2: other day against the Dolphins.

574
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 3: That's a lot. That's a lot for a quarterback. That's

575
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,440
Speaker 3: a lot for a running back, right, I mean a

576
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 3: lot of running backs who love that fourteen touches.

577
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 2: So what I think the Colts are are doing in

578
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:56,159
Speaker 2: some sense is mitigating his accuracy issues with opportunities to

579
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,360
Speaker 2: go run the football, like to make an impact.

580
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,440
Speaker 4: Do you think that they feel like, you know what,

581
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 4: let's run him. If he gets hurt, we got flaccoh We're.

582
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:06,960
Speaker 3: Good to go. That's exactly right, And he's a good weapon.

583
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 2: I feel that way exactly like, Hey, we've got no

584
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,160
Speaker 2: issues when he runs the ball, he is an asset.

585
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 2: When he throws it, we got no idea. And you're right,

586
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 2: there's Joe sitting over there. Joe's put up some numbers.

587
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 2: I did he in the three games in which Joe

588
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 2: was started, I think he maybe came into one game.

589
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 2: He came into one game but played the majority of it.

590
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 2: Then he started two others. They averaged twenty seven points

591
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:32,120
Speaker 2: a game.

592
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 5: Yea.

593
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 2: Now they score twenty seven against us, but they also

594
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:40,199
Speaker 2: threw three incredible throws that only Richardson could make, and

595
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,480
Speaker 2: that I think is the guy. You just go back

596
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 2: and forth on that, like, oh my god, he's so

597
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,680
Speaker 2: bad hitting these routes. But man, look at those throws

598
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,159
Speaker 2: he made against the Texans. And I remember after that

599
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 2: game against the Texans in Week one, I remember reading

600
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 2: everything nationally, Indianapolis locally, it was all.

601
00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,880
Speaker 1: Oh, look what he can do, Look what he can.

602
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 3: Do, and it's it's dantalizing.

603
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 2: Yeah it is. Oh I love that. I wish I'd

604
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 2: like to see him do it all the time. That's

605
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,679
Speaker 2: the problem. He's not being consistent with it. But I

606
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:16,160
Speaker 2: think their their admission to themselves is we're just gonna

607
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 2: run him. Yeah, he does it so well, that's the

608
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 2: that's the thing he does to give us a chance

609
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 2: to win the game. And then when everybody sells out,

610
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,160
Speaker 2: sells out to go stop the run. Now, then we'll

611
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 2: maybe hit some of those over the top shots. So

612
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 2: I think he's gonna carry it if he plays the

613
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,280
Speaker 2: full game. I think he carries it. Between twelve to

614
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 2: twelve to fifteen, twelve twelve to fifteen times, carried it

615
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 2: eight times against US for fifty six. Hit him hard,

616
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 2: So I think we're gonna exactly yeah, if he wants

617
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:43,239
Speaker 2: to run, hit him.

618
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's a runner, exactly right. He's gonna want to

619
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 4: see Flacco either, So I don't know. Offensively, I do

620
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,600
Speaker 4: want to see flacoh. I don't want to see playoff Flaco,

621
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:54,719
Speaker 4: not regular season last year Flaco.

622
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,920
Speaker 2: I want to see this offense go to work. Yeah,

623
00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 2: your thoughts about the offense for Sunday.

624
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 7: All right.

625
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:02,639
Speaker 4: Joe Mixon should be able to run the ball. I mean,

626
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 4: based on just sheer math what he did last time,

627
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 4: with one hundred and fifty nine yards, what the Colts

628
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:10,919
Speaker 4: are giving up, which is a ton a ton of

629
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,439
Speaker 4: yards on the ground, you should be able to run

630
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:16,400
Speaker 4: the ball. If I'm the Colts, I'm thinking I got

631
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 4: to stop the run. I just have to stop them.

632
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:22,680
Speaker 4: Because the Texans passing game has been quote struggling, has

633
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,440
Speaker 4: it well at home. It should be a lot better.

634
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 4: But you know, the Texans are going to run Joe Mixon.

635
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 4: This is going to happen, and we'll see how that goes.

636
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:32,199
Speaker 4: This should be a good game for the offense. They

637
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 4: should be able to move the ball on the Colts.

638
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 4: I know Buckner is back, that's always a big problem

639
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,480
Speaker 4: for this team. But I'm looking at what the Colts

640
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 4: have done defensively this year. It hasn't been the same

641
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:45,159
Speaker 4: for them with all the rushing yards surrendered. I like

642
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 4: the Texans chances at home. The communication at home is better, obviously,

643
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 4: less noise, all of that stuff. You should be able to,

644
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:53,159
Speaker 4: you know, get your act together with the pass protection

645
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 4: issues at least well enough to let CJ. Stroud cook.

646
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 4: This is a bounce back game for CJ. You move

647
00:26:58,240 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 4: the ball well enough, you score enough to win.

648
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,399
Speaker 2: I think I think I agree with that. What's the

649
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 2: number everything you said, what's the number you need? What

650
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 2: do we say last time?

651
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:07,359
Speaker 1: Twenty eight?

652
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 4: I don't think I feel good about twenty eight. I

653
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 4: think twenty three twenty four gets it done.

654
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they can. Twenty eight definitely gets it done.

655
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 2: I think twenty three twenty four can do it there. Yeah,

656
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,679
Speaker 2: that's what I just it's my threshold. It's it's just

657
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 2: the thing with Richardson of like, you know, is he

658
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 2: going to pull off that magic goal type stuff?

659
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 3: Like did he just do that? Like I remember Mark.

660
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 2: I'm standing ten yards away from him, and I see

661
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 2: him fading away, and I see.

662
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 1: Danil about to sack him, and he just unloads one.

663
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,640
Speaker 3: And I'm like, is anybody even down there?

664
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:41,120
Speaker 5: Yeah?

665
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 6: Holy cow?

666
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 3: But now you know better, right now you know a

667
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:45,360
Speaker 3: little bit exactly.

668
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 2: And I think that's where this part of the schedule

669
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:51,040
Speaker 2: I think is really interesting to across the NFL, because

670
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 2: you start do team start, You start finding out about teams. Hey,

671
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,239
Speaker 2: they like this, Like last night with the Rams they

672
00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 2: put up thirty against the Vikings. You know, a team

673
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 2: early on was dominating everybody defensively, and then Pooka and

674
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:04,280
Speaker 2: Cup and.

675
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,440
Speaker 3: Stafford go to work put thirty. Are those guys any

676
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 3: good man?

677
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 2: Tell you what all that trade talk and all that

678
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 2: miss mask at the end was it.

679
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:15,199
Speaker 1: Was I was.

680
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:18,119
Speaker 3: I was mad just because you can't miss something like that.

681
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,679
Speaker 4: Cannot miss you know what? They just they need some

682
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,439
Speaker 4: kind of replay assist. Liked hit the brother this is

683
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 4: not right. You guys got to correct this. And it's

684
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 4: the Rams really yeah, my gosh, I mean some reason

685
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:32,879
Speaker 4: like the yellow and blue colors really make the officials

686
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,960
Speaker 4: not able to see proper call opportunities.

687
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 2: That was one that they I mean, you just can't

688
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 2: miss it. And it's funny because they showed the angle.

689
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 2: The camera angle was exactly the angle that the official

690
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 2: had and I can't remember who who the head referee was,

691
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 2: but it.

692
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 1: Was Trey Blake.

693
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, had the exact angle that Trey had, and you

694
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:58,040
Speaker 2: could see where Trey was kinda he was kind of.

695
00:28:57,960 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 1: Shielded from it.

696
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 4: It felt like, but as you watched it happen, it's

697
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 4: like incorrect, you know it. You just knew that that

698
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 4: wasn't right.

699
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 3: And then why don't you see Byron Young?

700
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,239
Speaker 1: Dude, Byron Young grabs his head like I screwed up.

701
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh. I like the guy made the call

702
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 3: for you then, like.

703
00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 1: He was telling you, he was telling you.

704
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 2: I remember watching it because I wanted the I wanted

705
00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 2: the Rams to win, and I'm just like, oh, safety great.

706
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:22,480
Speaker 1: Then I saw him put his hands up. I was like,

707
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 1: oh he did grab the face man, And.

708
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 3: I'm like, I'm waiting. I don't know what I wanted.

709
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 3: Is that gonna happen?

710
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 1: So I just want I want Sunday to be drama less.

Speaker 2: back home Sunday night and start getting ready for the

714

Speaker 2: It's time for my Keys to the game. I do

725
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 2: this every single Friday, discussing the game at length with

726
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 2: all of you and the keys that I think going

727
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 2: in three on each side. So let's discuss it.

728
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,560
Speaker 1: But let me get my music ready, my shro there

729
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 1: we go. I love it. Got the music ready and

730
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:36,840
Speaker 1: it gives me hype.

731
00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:40,120
Speaker 2: So if I start getting amped up, well, now you

732
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 2: know why.

733
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 1: Okay. It's the Indianapolis Colts team that's four and three lost.

734
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 2: Of the Texans lost to the Packers right out of

735
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,080
Speaker 2: the shoot but they've won four to five. They beat

736
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 2: the Bears, Steelers, Titans, and Dolphins. Now, the Bears at

737
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 2: the time weren't a very good football team. Steelers are

738
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 2: a good football team, but Joe Flacco had to come

739
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 2: into that game. They beat the Titans at Tennessee, not

740
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 2: a good football team, won that by three one on

741
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 2: the road.

742
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:06,720
Speaker 1: It's difficult to do.

743
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 2: Maybe the Dolphins last week sixteen to ten. Let's talk

744
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 2: about this Colts offense and start with that because you

745
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 2: have this situation. Here's the situation. You've got a quarterback

746
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 2: of Anthony Richardson that is the future of this team,

747
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 2: or at least that's what the Colts want. They want

748
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson to be the future of this team, this

749
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 2: organization to face the franchise for fifteen years or more.

750
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 2: Now's playing style probably is gonna yield about ten to twelve.

751
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 1: But we'll see.

752
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:47,200
Speaker 2: In games that Richardson has started and finished this year,

753
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 2: the Colts have averaged eighteen point five points per game,

754
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 2: not great. But in the three games that Flacco started

755
00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 2: or went into the game like he did against the Dealers, the.

756
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 1: Colts have averaged twenty seven points per game.

757
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 2: Now, I know you're stire, going, well, wait a second,

758
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:11,840
Speaker 2: that's pretty obvious, right, But Joe Flacco is in the

759
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 2: future of this organization. So this team goes with Anthony Richardson.

760
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 2: And the last week was a little bit of a

761
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 2: All right, let's get to the keys, because we're talking

762
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 2: about Anthony Richardson in our keys. My first key against

763
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 2: the Colts offense, I had labeled it doctor Anthony or

764
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 2: mister Richardson. Now, if you know Jekyl and Hyde, you

765
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 2: kind of know the whole thing. Doctor Jeko, mister Hyde, Right,

766
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 2: Doctor Jeko was the I guess, the good the good doctor,

767
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 2: you know, the good person.

768
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 1: Mister Hyde was kind of this evil, genius.

769
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 2: Mad person, whatever the case might be. So doctor Anthony

770
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,520
Speaker 2: or mister Richardson. And this is why I bring this

771
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 2: up because I feel like Anthony Richardson is this dichotomy

772
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 2: of players. All in one against US Week one, he's

773
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:03,440
Speaker 2: nine of nineteen, he's forty seven point four percent. Yet

774
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 2: he made three throws down the field that I don't

775
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 2: know that any quarterback in the NFL could have made,

776
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 2: and he kept the Colts in the game. He's less

777
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 2: than forty eight percent, or he's just over forty eight percent.

778
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:20,680
Speaker 1: On the season completion percentage.

779
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 2: Yet last week he ran the ball fourteen times for

780
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 2: fifty six yards and that got the Colts back in

781
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 2: the game to beat the Dolphins.

782
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:31,320
Speaker 1: So which Richardson is it?

783
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 2: And I think that's maddening for Colts fans, But it's

784
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 2: even more maddening for the opponents because what you hate

785
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 2: is a wild card. If you look across and go,

786
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 2: that guy can do anything on a football.

787
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 1: Field, like he's freaky.

788
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 2: But he may take a hit on the ribcage and

789
00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 2: be out after one carry of the football, or he

790
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 2: could stick in the game and run for sixty yards,

791
00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 2: throw for two forty and you look.

792
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 1: Up and go, God, how that guy beat us? So

793
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 1: he is very difficult to really not only game plan for,

794
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:09,320
Speaker 1: but to assess like is he good? Is he great?

795
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:13,360
Speaker 2: Is what we know is he's an athlete playing quarterback,

796
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 2: so he's making some athletic, unbelievable plays. But can he

797
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:22,400
Speaker 2: be a quarterback and beat you that way? I don't

798
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 2: know that he can do that. I don't think he

799
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:26,040
Speaker 2: can do that, And I don't even know the Colts

800
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 2: would tell you that he can do that. So the

801
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,600
Speaker 2: Texas had to limit those deep shots, those deep strikes

802
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 2: and force Anthony Richardson to be a quarterback on Sunday.

803
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:37,319
Speaker 1: You do that, you can win the game. Whether it's

804
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:38,840
Speaker 1: doctor Anthony or mister Richardson.

805
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,879
Speaker 2: Okay, number two Pierce the punisher, it's Alex Pierce. Now

806
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 2: back in trade camp, there's a thought that maybe Alex

807
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 2: Pierce doesn't really have a rollins team.

808
00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:49,719
Speaker 1: You got downs in the slot, you got Pittman.

809
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,680
Speaker 2: As the number one, and you've got a rookie at

810
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,399
Speaker 2: that Mitchell. He can kind of take the reps really

811
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 2: away from Alex Pearce. But what Alex Pierce has turned

812
00:34:57,520 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 2: into for the Colts is a deep.

813
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 1: Down field punisher. He can fly, he ran in the

814
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,440
Speaker 1: four three range and combine.

815
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 2: He's got size and as we found out in week one,

816
00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:10,200
Speaker 2: he's got vertical leap.

817
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,719
Speaker 1: He can go, but get the ball. He reads the

818
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:13,840
Speaker 1: deep ball really well.

819
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 2: Alec Pierce is an automatic nine route or post route,

820
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,960
Speaker 2: whatever you wanted to be. This guy can do it.

821
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 2: And I worry about that. He may not catch two passes,

822
00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,359
Speaker 2: but he might catch two for eighty because one went

823
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:29,240
Speaker 2: for ten yards. And the other one went for seventy

824
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 2: as he ran by everybody down the field. Alec Pierce

825
00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:35,360
Speaker 2: number fourteen, keep an eye on him and his athletic

826
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 2: gifts changing the game.

827
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 1: And finally, Jonathan Taylor.

828
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,640
Speaker 2: Now we have long talked about Taylor as the thorn

829
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:46,759
Speaker 2: in the side of the Texans were finally in Week

830
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:48,640
Speaker 2: one sixteen carries for.

831
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:49,360
Speaker 1: Forty eight yards.

832
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:53,359
Speaker 2: They shut out his space. He had no space to run.

833
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:56,480
Speaker 2: They really cut those gaps down. Now that was with

834
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,839
Speaker 2: his z's el Shier and Henry Toatole playing in the game.

835
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 2: You'll find out the next segment that isn't gonna.

836
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:03,759
Speaker 1: Be the case, or at least we don't know it

837
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: to be. So we'll talk a little bit more about that.

838
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 1: As the injuries have impacted this defense.

839
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:12,840
Speaker 2: Either way, you gotta continue to take away the space

840
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 2: for Taylor because if he gets a scene, it's a

841
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,839
Speaker 2: chunk play and a big one, and I've seen way

842
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 2: too many of those in the five years he's been

843
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:21,400
Speaker 2: in the NFL.

844
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,600
Speaker 1: It's not time for that. It's time for another seventeen

845
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:26,120
Speaker 1: for thirty one sort of game.

846
00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 2: That would be awesome because he's had great games at

847
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:30,360
Speaker 2: Energy Stadium.

848
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:30,960
Speaker 1: Check this out.

849
00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,919
Speaker 2: In twenty twenty, he had one hundred and thirty five

850
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,759
Speaker 2: yards total offense. Nine he went through the air forty

851
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:38,440
Speaker 2: one I'm sorry notwine one in a ground, forty four

852
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:38,839
Speaker 2: through the air.

853
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:40,719
Speaker 1: The next year he came back. In twenty twenty one,

854
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:42,439
Speaker 1: he had one hundred and forty three yards on thirty

855
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 1: two carries.

856
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:45,000
Speaker 2: Against the Texans, and then in twenty twenty two in

857
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,759
Speaker 2: the tie game, he had thirty carries for one hundred

858
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 2: and sixty one yards. I believe it was that can't happen,

859
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,080
Speaker 2: that happens ball game, forget it. Texas have no chance,

860
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,439
Speaker 2: will be five to three. The Texans have to take

861
00:36:56,480 --> 00:37:00,400
Speaker 2: away Jonathan Taylor's running space, make it bound, and then

862
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 2: get everybody to the party and make him feel those

863
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,799
Speaker 2: fifteen to twenty carries he's gonna get, maybe more because

864
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:09,359
Speaker 2: he hasn't played in three weeks, and I anticipate he's

865
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:12,360
Speaker 2: gonna play. He is on the injury report listed, but

866
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,879
Speaker 2: there's no injury designation, so he will play. Okay, let's

867
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 2: talk about this Colts defense that has been struggling. They

868
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 2: give up one hundred and sixty yards per game on

869
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 2: the ground. We found it out first week ran for

870
00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 2: over two hundred against them. That rushing defense has not

871
00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:29,800
Speaker 2: gotten better. Passing yards per game they give up to

872
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:33,400
Speaker 2: twenty two, but they're without Juju Brantz at the corner spot.

873
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 2: That does hurt them a little bit. Toll offense, they

874
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:37,399
Speaker 2: give up three hundred and eighty two yards per game.

875
00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:40,160
Speaker 2: This is the game. The Texans offense has to get

876
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:41,959
Speaker 2: in a groove and get in a groove early. Now

877
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,919
Speaker 2: they've generated some turnovers eleven to be exact, their plus

878
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,520
Speaker 2: two and turnover margin on the year to Forrest Buckner

879
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:53,520
Speaker 2: should be back, should budd he's listening to a questionable

880
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:54,160
Speaker 2: and the injury report.

881
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:55,279
Speaker 1: We'll get to that in a little bit.

882
00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 2: So Number one, who's the big bad bully?

883
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:03,840
Speaker 1: For years years it was the Colts.

884
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:05,960
Speaker 2: And we're not talking years, I'm talking the last you know,

885
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,920
Speaker 2: relevant years, last five to seven years. The Colts physically

886
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,400
Speaker 2: beat up the Texas. The Forrest Buckner, Grover Stewart, they

887
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:14,279
Speaker 2: just beat the hell out of.

888
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:15,399
Speaker 1: Texas can block them.

889
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:18,360
Speaker 2: They were in the backfield, they just ate up quarterbacks

890
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 2: and running backs. Well in Week one that turned and

891
00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 2: that changed for that game. But is it for that game?

892
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,280
Speaker 2: In that game only was that an admiration or trend.

893
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:28,840
Speaker 2: It's got to be a trend. The Texas ran the

894
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:31,440
Speaker 2: ball very well against the Packers. Hopefully they'll run it

895
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,719
Speaker 2: as well as they throw it and have another.

896
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 1: Game like they did in Week one. Be the Bully.

897
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:41,960
Speaker 1: Be the bully. Okay, number two.

898
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:44,919
Speaker 2: I didn't have a huge impact in the first game,

899
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,440
Speaker 2: but I just worry because he's had great games at

900
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 2: Energy Stadium too. And that's Kenny Moore, defensive back for

901
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 2: the Colts. Now, he's all over the field. The lineup

902
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:55,680
Speaker 2: in a nickel, they'll be at the perimeter corner. He

903
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 2: could play safety if they ask him to. He worries

904
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 2: me because he does everything well as a defensive back.

905
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:03,920
Speaker 2: He can play man to man coverage, He play his

906
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 2: own coverage. He is great in disguising. Does delay Blitzer's

907
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:11,399
Speaker 2: really well. I would imagine that after what we've seen

908
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 2: against the Vikings and the Packers, that Kenny Moore.

909
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 1: Is probably gonna be a little bit more involved in

910
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 1: the Blitz game. They've got to pick him up. They

911
00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 1: gotta find him. They gotta know where he's going.

912
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,800
Speaker 2: Is he running from outside into the a gap, is

913
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,920
Speaker 2: he running from inside looping the outside where is he

914
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:26,960
Speaker 2: going to end up.

915
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,040
Speaker 1: They've got to contain or know where Kenny Moore is

916
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:31,280
Speaker 1: to contain his impact.

917
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 2: I wouldn't be surprised to see him play a lot

918
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 2: near the box, considering how well we ran. But he's

919
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:39,440
Speaker 2: gonna be around the football and he's gonna make a

920
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 2: lot of players, and that worries me.

921
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:41,479
Speaker 1: Number three.

922
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:45,160
Speaker 2: In the last key to the offense, we all know

923
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,200
Speaker 2: there's no Nico Collins in this game, and nobody is

924
00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 2: happier about that than the Colt secondary.

925
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:50,239
Speaker 1: The Colt secondary has.

926
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 2: Got absolutely obliterated the last few times. The last three

927
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:57,839
Speaker 2: times they faced Nico absolutely destroyed.

928
00:39:58,920 --> 00:39:59,680
Speaker 1: So no Nico.

929
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 2: We saw last week and a lot of people pointed that, well,

930
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:05,480
Speaker 2: there's no Nico looking the passing game. I don't know

931
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 2: if it was Nico being out. Now, Nico being out

932
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 2: didn't help us, But Nico being out wasn't exactly the

933
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:14,800
Speaker 2: issue against the Green Bay Packers. Against the Patriots, he

934
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 2: didn't have to throw a whole heck of a lot.

935
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,719
Speaker 2: CJ was out by the early fourth quarter, so I

936
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 2: really didn't put a lot in that Patriots game.

937
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 1: CJ made to throws he needed to.

938
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 2: But last week, the passing game was a mess, an

939
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:29,560
Speaker 2: absolute mess. There was more protection mess seemingly, but it

940
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:31,440
Speaker 2: was a mess, and everybody's.

941
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:31,719
Speaker 1: Got to figure it out.

942
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 2: And Bobby Schlook talked about it at his press conference.

943
00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:37,879
Speaker 2: There's no Nico really to bail you out. So you've

944
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:39,400
Speaker 2: got to be able to make the plays that you

945
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,920
Speaker 2: need to make without Nico in the lineup.

946
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:44,920
Speaker 1: And the Colts are like, yeah, go ahead, go ahead.

947
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,800
Speaker 2: Number twelve is not playing. We feel great, So you

948
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:49,320
Speaker 2: got to make him pay for that. You got to

949
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:51,080
Speaker 2: make him pay for being for feeling great.

950
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:55,520
Speaker 1: So who is Steph? Is? It is a tank?

951
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:58,399
Speaker 2: Those two are probably the two your point too, and go, okay,

952
00:40:58,400 --> 00:40:59,320
Speaker 2: they got big days.

953
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:01,439
Speaker 1: But I had I think it might be somebody else

954
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:02,200
Speaker 1: that rises up.

955
00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,439
Speaker 2: Maybe is this the game that Dalton Schultz has six

956
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:06,640
Speaker 2: or seven catches? Do you get one of the other

957
00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 2: two tight ends involved in it? What about Joe out

958
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,440
Speaker 2: of the backfield? Where does the passing game success come from?

959
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 2: Because the Texans are gonna need it and need it

960
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 2: often against the Inanneapolis Colts. Make them pay for thinking

961
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:22,840
Speaker 2: they got a shot because Nico's not playing.

962
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:26,400
Speaker 1: Make them pay for that all day long, all right?

963
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 1: Do those things and.

964
00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:30,520
Speaker 2: We'll end up walking out of NRG Stadium a winner

965
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:34,160
Speaker 2: before we take off and take on the New York Jets. Okay,

966
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,440
Speaker 2: we get back. I alluded to it a couple of times.

967
00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:40,839
Speaker 2: The status report is out. It's not as bad as

968
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:43,479
Speaker 2: I thought it would be, but still there's some things

969
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,440
Speaker 2: we gotta discuss, and we'll go around the NFL for

970
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:49,279
Speaker 2: all you fantasy players and look at players who are

971
00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:54,919
Speaker 2: out of their games this weekend. That's next on Texans Axes. Yes, sir,

972
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:58,560
Speaker 2: we are less than forty eight hours away from a

973
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 2: visit from the Indianapolis Colts this weekend.

974
00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:04,439
Speaker 1: Welcome back to this show.

975
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:07,680
Speaker 2: I'm your host, John Harris, foot Planals sideline reporter for

976
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 2: your Houston Texans.

977
00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:10,680
Speaker 1: Glad to be with you now.

978
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,719
Speaker 2: I've referred to the status report a few times talking

979
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:17,920
Speaker 2: about the Keys, and it's not as bad as it

980
00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,799
Speaker 2: was last week. But I'm not gonna tell you that

981
00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:25,560
Speaker 2: it's pretty. But I've seen worse from your Texans. Two

982
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 2: key cogs up the middle again for this week because

983
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:33,440
Speaker 2: he's out Shire with the knee, Jimmy Ward with the groin.

984
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:38,360
Speaker 2: Those two are out now. Henry Toatoa was out last weekend.

985
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,600
Speaker 2: He is questionable. He was a limited participant in practice,

986
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:44,760
Speaker 2: so he's kind of had the practice weirdos this week.

987
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,759
Speaker 2: I guess that's the strange way of saying it. He

988
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:54,239
Speaker 2: was limited on Wednesday, he dmped on Thursday, he was

989
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:57,840
Speaker 2: limited on Friday. So I don't know what all that

990
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,640
Speaker 2: means as it pertains to a concussion. We'll talk about

991
00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:02,560
Speaker 2: concussions in a little bit too with one other player,

992
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 2: but he's questionable, so that's it. That means that Kamari

993
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:11,319
Speaker 2: Laster will be back. It means Steven Simms will be back.

994
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:14,440
Speaker 2: It means Robert Woods will be back. And I mentioned

995
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,920
Speaker 2: last night that or yeah, yeah, last night, I think

996
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,600
Speaker 2: we talked about it. Titus Howard was listed on the

997
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:22,880
Speaker 2: injury report with a knee as a limited participant, but

998
00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:27,280
Speaker 2: he is a full go. So the only designation injury

999
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:32,400
Speaker 2: wise for your Texans is the ziz Al Shier, Jimmy

1000
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,919
Speaker 2: Ward both out, Henry totoa questionable. Now on the other

1001
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:39,759
Speaker 2: side for the Colts, let's start with the bad, bad

1002
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:44,160
Speaker 2: bad news first, well for us anyways, Jonathan Taylor has

1003
00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 2: no injury designation. The Pro Bowl running back will be

1004
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:53,480
Speaker 2: good to go. The two players that are out for

1005
00:43:53,560 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 2: the Colts. Jennard Avery defensive end out, Jalen Carl Missouri

1006
00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:02,400
Speaker 2: rookie out.

1007
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:06,520
Speaker 1: That's it now. The other one is the Forest Buckner.

1008
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:11,120
Speaker 2: His practice throughout this week, so he didn't He was

1009
00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:17,799
Speaker 2: limited on Wednesday, he went full on Thursday, but then

1010
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:21,640
Speaker 2: today deal with that ankle. He was ankle slashed, not

1011
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:27,920
Speaker 2: injury related rest. He's listed this questionable now. My gut

1012
00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 2: tells me he's playing. I think he's gonna play. Anticipating

1013
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 2: him playing until he's not. I don't want to go

1014
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:36,160
Speaker 2: the other way around. Oh no, he's not playing else.

1015
00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:36,920
Speaker 1: Oh no, there he is.

1016
00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:40,200
Speaker 2: And I know people are thinking, well, wait a second

1017
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:42,520
Speaker 2: ran for over two hundred yards last time. Yeah, but

1018
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,920
Speaker 2: every other time before that ninety nine, the Forest Buckner

1019
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:49,200
Speaker 2: has been a thorn in our sides.

1020
00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:53,400
Speaker 1: So out for the Colts.

1021
00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:59,200
Speaker 2: Avery carlis questionable for the Colts forst Buckner and linebacker

1022
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:03,520
Speaker 2: Cameron mcgron. So, I don't think either team is really

1023
00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:07,080
Speaker 2: near full strength. But I got a feeling Buckner's gonna play.

1024
00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 2: We alre know Taylor's playing. That gets them a whole

1025
00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:13,239
Speaker 2: hell of a lot closer, uh than the Texas but

1026
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:16,200
Speaker 2: Judre Brents has won that. Well, we don't have Nico Collins,

1027
00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:18,120
Speaker 2: so there you go. That would that would have been

1028
00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:21,240
Speaker 2: the crossover matchup now in the NFL. As I mentioned,

1029
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:24,239
Speaker 2: we'll go around the NFL here with some news to

1030
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 2: a tongue of Iloa is on track to start for

1031
00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:31,800
Speaker 2: the Dolphins against the Cardinals. That is probably the biggest

1032
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 2: news of the day that he is back. He's cleared

1033
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:40,600
Speaker 2: all the concussion protocol. He is expected to play against

1034
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:43,719
Speaker 2: the Cardinals. We'll see how the Dolphins season changes with

1035
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:47,319
Speaker 2: Tua versus not having him. Tyreek was all excited, like,

1036
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:50,680
Speaker 2: hey man, we're back baby, all right, we'll see Against

1037
00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:55,759
Speaker 2: the Cardinals. Last night, Christian Darrisaw got hurt late in

1038
00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:58,759
Speaker 2: the first half and I don't even know there was

1039
00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:00,759
Speaker 2: a play that should have even been but either way,

1040
00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 2: he suffered a knee injury. He will have surgery and

1041
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:07,480
Speaker 2: he is out for the year. That is a big,

1042
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:12,720
Speaker 2: big loss, big for the Vikings. Bryce Young is gonna

1043
00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:16,200
Speaker 2: come back for the Panthers. He is going to start.

1044
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:21,720
Speaker 2: With Andy Dalton injured in a car accident. He injured

1045
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:24,600
Speaker 2: his thumb, so Bryce Young is going to get the start.

1046
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:28,239
Speaker 2: I am I'm hoping that Bryce does well.

1047
00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:31,839
Speaker 1: I really am. I cheer for Bryce because all the nonsense.

1048
00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:33,640
Speaker 2: That he's had to hear and the way he's handled

1049
00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:35,760
Speaker 2: it has been absolutely awesome.

1050
00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:39,759
Speaker 1: So Bryce Young is back for the Panthers.

1051
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:45,799
Speaker 2: Jayden Daniels is a game time decision, the absolute death

1052
00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:49,640
Speaker 2: knel for fantasy football players, dan Quinn said in that quote,

1053
00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:52,279
Speaker 2: Jayden was able to practice today. We filed the plan

1054
00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:54,479
Speaker 2: really that we set at the start of the week,

1055
00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:57,920
Speaker 2: think crawl, walk, run. We will assess how he responds

1056
00:46:57,920 --> 00:46:59,839
Speaker 2: to the work that we did over the next forty

1057
00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:02,399
Speaker 2: eight hours, but we really pushed it today. We'll make

1058
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 2: the best decision for him and the team unquote.

1059
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 1: So keep an eye on the commander. So they got

1060
00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:09,560
Speaker 1: a big one.

1061
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:12,880
Speaker 2: It's one versus two, Caleb versus Jayden. If Jaden is

1062
00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:14,880
Speaker 2: ready to go, Okay, we got one hour in the books.

1063
00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 2: We get back our guy, Jonathan Alexander will join us.

1064

Speaker 1: Appreciate you being here with me.

1077
00:47:52,560 --> 00:47:56,440
Speaker 2: John Harris, sideline reporter and football analysts for your Houston

1078
00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:58,319
Speaker 2: Texas Each and every Friday, we get a chance to

1079
00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:03,600
Speaker 2: sit down with the Houston Chronicle's own Jonathan Alexander.

1080
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:04,680
Speaker 1: It's here with Jay.

1081
00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:09,160
Speaker 4: In studio with us now, Jonathan Alexander from the Houston Chronicle.

1082
00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:10,600
Speaker 3: All right, Jonathan, I want to start here.

1083
00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:13,880
Speaker 4: I was on the air in Indianapolis and we are

1084
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,200
Speaker 4: talking about the fact that this is the earliest the

1085
00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:19,360
Speaker 4: Texans will be done with the Colts season series ever

1086
00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:22,360
Speaker 4: since the inception of the AFC South in two thousand

1087
00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:25,520
Speaker 4: and two. And I'm thinking that's wrong for the league,

1088
00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:29,160
Speaker 4: these two teams, after what happened last year. If you

1089
00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:32,680
Speaker 4: want to promote I know you don't necessarily promote divisions,

1090
00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:34,960
Speaker 4: but if you want this division to be more relevant

1091
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:38,319
Speaker 4: and primetime worthy division games, you got to put a

1092
00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:41,759
Speaker 4: Texans Colts game on down the stretch. And even if

1093
00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:44,040
Speaker 4: you don't use it, you have an opportunity to use

1094
00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:45,399
Speaker 4: it in a flex situation or something.

1095
00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:48,480
Speaker 11: Your thoughts, Oh one, I was thinking about that as well,

1096
00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:51,799
Speaker 11: because if you look at you know, prior to the

1097
00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:54,840
Speaker 11: season in who we predicted would be the top two teams.

1098
00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:57,120
Speaker 11: It was the Texas and the Colts right right, so

1099
00:48:57,880 --> 00:48:59,719
Speaker 11: you know these two teams should be playing it. In

1100
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:02,120
Speaker 11: last year's game Week eight, team was so magical and

1101
00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:05,080
Speaker 11: how it played out came down to the very end,

1102
00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:08,040
Speaker 11: the two top teams in the AFC, and then of

1103
00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:12,600
Speaker 11: course the Texans win it after you know a minshew

1104
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:18,320
Speaker 11: through the incomplete pass there. But these games particularly recently

1105
00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:20,560
Speaker 11: have been nothing short of battles, so it should have

1106
00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:21,080
Speaker 11: been at the end.

1107
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:23,840
Speaker 4: By the way Jonathan's saying incomplete pass as opposed to

1108
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:27,080
Speaker 4: drop pass, It's music to my ears, Johnny, because that

1109
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:30,880
Speaker 4: is it's more worthy. See it's incomplete, It's not dropped.

1110
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:32,960
Speaker 4: It was incomplete. It was more incomplete.

1111
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:35,360
Speaker 2: I hated that they put that on Tyler Goodson because

1112
00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:37,920
Speaker 2: that was a bad throw. Yeah, it should have been

1113
00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 2: put on the money and the Goodson could turn and run.

1114
00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:42,520
Speaker 2: I guarantee if CJ throws that, we don't make the

1115
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:45,400
Speaker 2: playoffs because he's gonna end up turning and scoring. So

1116
00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:49,480
Speaker 2: it was more an incomplete pass, which is there are

1117
00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:53,000
Speaker 2: sometimes like I hear announcers not you. You do a

1118
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:54,759
Speaker 2: good job of like explaining it, but I hear your

1119
00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:57,440
Speaker 2: answers say dropped, and I'm like, no, man, the defensive

1120
00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:00,400
Speaker 2: back just raked it out of his hands, or it

1121
00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:01,680
Speaker 2: was a one handed attempt.

1122
00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:04,399
Speaker 3: He couldn't hang on too exactly. That drives me nuts.

1123
00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:06,239
Speaker 4: What they call it a drop when somebody got their

1124
00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:08,120
Speaker 4: hand in there, I'm thinking there's a drop, and there's

1125
00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:08,560
Speaker 4: a drop.

1126
00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:10,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's a drop.

1127
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:15,440
Speaker 2: Speaking of drops, last week, Jhonathan and Texans pass protection

1128
00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:19,440
Speaker 2: kind of dropped the ball. How do you think that

1129
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:22,359
Speaker 2: fares this week against the Colts team that sacked CJ

1130
00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:24,920
Speaker 2: four times, three in the first half and then one

1131
00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:26,680
Speaker 2: in the second half. And I think that's what kind

1132
00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:28,759
Speaker 2: of flipped a little bit of the Packers game. Early on,

1133
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:30,080
Speaker 2: it didn't look like it was gonna be an issue,

1134
00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden second quarter on it

1135
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:34,280
Speaker 2: became a big issue. How do you think that changes

1136
00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:36,200
Speaker 2: or do you think that changes And how big an

1137
00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:37,560
Speaker 2: issue is that going against the Colts.

1138
00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:40,080
Speaker 11: Yeah, I think it'll be a huge focus for the

1139
00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:42,440
Speaker 11: offense line that has been all week. I mean, but

1140
00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:45,239
Speaker 11: the Colts really started this. They ran some stunts early

1141
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:47,239
Speaker 11: in that Week one game and kind of set the

1142
00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:50,000
Speaker 11: blueprint that the Texans were going to struggle against these

1143
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:53,960
Speaker 11: type of rushes. So but I think because the focus,

1144
00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:57,839
Speaker 11: because you know, they know the criticism that has been

1145
00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:00,000
Speaker 11: coming their way, I'm sure that has been the number

1146
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,440
Speaker 11: one thing that they will have fixed, just like they

1147
00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:05,759
Speaker 11: fixed the penalties, the pre snapt penalties earlier in the year.

1148
00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:09,640
Speaker 11: So I don't anticipate it being a huge problem because

1149
00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:11,360
Speaker 11: if it is a huge problem, then you're going to

1150
00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:13,080
Speaker 11: see some moves being made pretty soon.

1151
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:14,759
Speaker 3: So the NBA has started up.

1152
00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:16,799
Speaker 4: I don't know if you guys have noticed this, but

1153
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:19,400
Speaker 4: one thing that jumps out to me is this load

1154
00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:23,760
Speaker 4: management stuff and guys hurt, and I have a feeling

1155
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:26,680
Speaker 4: that some of the guys might be playing if they

1156
00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:29,400
Speaker 4: wanted to play more. I think in the NFL, it's different.

1157
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:31,560
Speaker 4: So don't get me wrong when I'm gonna make this comparison.

1158
00:51:32,040 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 4: But I do think with the seventeen games, it's not

1159
00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:37,839
Speaker 4: load management, Jonathan, but we're just more apt to see

1160
00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,879
Speaker 4: because of more games, more guys getting hurt, sitting out

1161
00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:43,759
Speaker 4: stretches of games like this Texans team, Nico and I

1162
00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:45,920
Speaker 4: are Jimmy Ward out. You know, I go out there

1163
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,600
Speaker 4: Thursday of practice. I see Robert Woods out there. I'm thinking, Yay,

1164
00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:49,319
Speaker 4: Robert's back.

1165
00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:50,080
Speaker 3: That's cool.

1166
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:51,600
Speaker 4: But you have a lot of guys kind of in

1167
00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:53,719
Speaker 4: and out of the lineup for all these teams. Do

1168
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:57,280
Speaker 4: you like in that as a as a situation that's

1169
00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:59,719
Speaker 4: caused by the seventeen games schedule, or you see more

1170
00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:00,520
Speaker 4: of it because of that.

1171
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:00,919
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1172
00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:03,960
Speaker 11: Absolutely, more games means more opportunities for your body to

1173
00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:07,240
Speaker 11: obeying this somebody else's body and then potential injury to occur.

1174
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:09,360
Speaker 11: And I think that's inevitable. And if they go to

1175
00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:12,680
Speaker 11: an eighteen game season, which is what they're ultimately discussing

1176
00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:15,120
Speaker 11: or will discuss, then there's gonna have to be an

1177
00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:19,280
Speaker 11: extra bye week because these guys' bodies can't take eighteen

1178
00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:24,040
Speaker 11: games without increased breaks. I think that is a primary

1179
00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:27,239
Speaker 11: reason you see so many people go out all the time,

1180
00:52:27,280 --> 00:52:28,920
Speaker 11: and it's why you have to have a deep team,

1181
00:52:29,080 --> 00:52:31,280
Speaker 11: and it's why the Texans try to build a deeper

1182
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:33,840
Speaker 11: team this year, and so far it's worked out in

1183
00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:34,919
Speaker 11: their favor pretty much.

1184
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:37,719
Speaker 3: Okay, want you to fill in the blank and then expand.

1185
00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:45,560
Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson worries me because Anthony Richardson doesn't worry me

1186
00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:47,000
Speaker 2: because oh.

1187
00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:48,040
Speaker 3: Can I play too? Yeah?

1188
00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:51,520
Speaker 2: You could play, yeah both, Jonathan, you go first. Anthony

1189
00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:53,960
Speaker 2: Richardson worries me because.

1190
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:56,760
Speaker 11: Anthony Richardson worries me because he is a great runner

1191
00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:00,840
Speaker 11: and he can take off and make guys miss, which

1192
00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:04,959
Speaker 11: will end up causing a lot of attention on him

1193
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:07,160
Speaker 11: and his legs, and then ultimately he could beat you

1194
00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:10,560
Speaker 11: deep if that were to occur. Anthony Ridson doesn't worry

1195
00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:13,719
Speaker 11: me because his passing game right now is really off

1196
00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:14,120
Speaker 11: the mark.

1197
00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:14,880
Speaker 12: He's struggling.

1198
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:19,640
Speaker 11: Three touchdowns, six interceptions, below fifty percent completion percentage. That

1199
00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:22,120
Speaker 11: is not good for a starting quarterback. So he is

1200
00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:23,239
Speaker 11: really struggling right now.

1201
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:26,479
Speaker 4: Right go ahead, boy, I'll say ditto, but I'll add

1202
00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:28,879
Speaker 4: on to this because you're right about the passing game.

1203
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:30,080
Speaker 3: I agree with that.

1204
00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:33,040
Speaker 4: However, there are one or two gems in there every

1205
00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:35,600
Speaker 4: once in a while where he goes full Willy Beaman

1206
00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:37,600
Speaker 4: and the balls in the air, and I could see

1207
00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:39,839
Speaker 4: the ball flight, you know, I'm calling the game through

1208
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:41,440
Speaker 4: my binoculars, so it kind of looks like one of

1209
00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:44,640
Speaker 4: Willy Beaman's throws dated reference. Any given Sunday, Johnny and

1210
00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:47,200
Speaker 4: I were talking about how the millennials and the gen

1211
00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:49,200
Speaker 4: z ors who work here don't know any sports.

1212
00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:50,080
Speaker 7: That's crazy.

1213
00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:52,000
Speaker 12: You don't know, Willy Beman, that's crazy.

1214
00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:52,960
Speaker 1: They would not know.

1215
00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:56,680
Speaker 4: They would not know because the movie's like twenty five

1216
00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:57,600
Speaker 4: years twenty five.

1217
00:53:57,560 --> 00:54:00,160
Speaker 3: Years old, literally, right, And the best part.

1218
00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:02,360
Speaker 11: Of that movie is the story between Jamie Fox and

1219
00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:04,319
Speaker 11: Cudegainness who a fight on the scene.

1220
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:05,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's really.

1221
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:07,160
Speaker 3: There are so many good scenes.

1222
00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:10,040
Speaker 4: My son saw it and loved it. He said, this

1223
00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:13,520
Speaker 4: is awesome. Yeah, it almost needs a reboot, and I'd

1224
00:54:13,600 --> 00:54:16,440
Speaker 4: love to see the reboot anyway. But that's the thing, Johnny,

1225
00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:18,680
Speaker 4: You know this. Anthony Richards said, every once in a while,

1226
00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:20,320
Speaker 4: I was gonna connect on one of those deep balls,

1227
00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:22,520
Speaker 4: and one deep ball can kill you if it's a

1228
00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:23,120
Speaker 4: close game.

1229
00:54:23,239 --> 00:54:26,840
Speaker 2: I can't answer my question with the exact same phrasing.

1230
00:54:27,239 --> 00:54:30,680
Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson worries me because he's an athlete playing quarterback.

1231
00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:35,880
Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson doesn't worry me because he's an athlete playing quarterback. There,

1232
00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:39,759
Speaker 2: it's the same, It's literally the same answer, because that's

1233
00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:40,560
Speaker 2: what he is right now.

1234
00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:41,840
Speaker 1: He's an athlete playing quarterback.

1235
00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:44,560
Speaker 2: So to Jonathan's point, he can pull one out of

1236
00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:46,760
Speaker 2: his backside and like he just threw its seventy yards

1237
00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:49,800
Speaker 2: my god, but then he can miss the next nine throws.

1238
00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:54,000
Speaker 4: So Jonathan, I get this sky is falling feeling from

1239
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 4: some people about the Houston Texans after losing a Green Bay,

1240
00:54:57,239 --> 00:54:59,400
Speaker 4: which was a very close game, as we all know,

1241
00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:01,440
Speaker 4: and they had the lead up until the last moment.

1242
00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:04,160
Speaker 4: And I get it, they did not play well, but

1243
00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:06,360
Speaker 4: despite not playing well, they had the lead until the

1244
00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:09,200
Speaker 4: last moment. So how do you assess them at this point?

1245
00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:12,239
Speaker 4: There's such ebb and flow to any season. But we

1246
00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:14,279
Speaker 4: got a lot of games left here, What are you

1247
00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:15,080
Speaker 4: thinking overall?

1248
00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:17,000
Speaker 11: Yeah, a lot of people came away with the skoy find,

1249
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:19,000
Speaker 11: but I came away a little bit more optimistic, to

1250
00:55:19,040 --> 00:55:21,680
Speaker 11: be honest with you, because initially I thought this was

1251
00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:24,200
Speaker 11: going to potentially be a blowout, knowing that the offense

1252
00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:26,920
Speaker 11: was struggling. But for the fact for the defense to

1253
00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:31,319
Speaker 11: get three turnovers and to really keep the Texans in

1254
00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:34,360
Speaker 11: that game was really promising, and I can only imagine

1255
00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:37,480
Speaker 11: that's going to increase their confidence. The fact that Neville

1256
00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:39,680
Speaker 11: Hewitt can come in and Jake Hansen could come in

1257
00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:43,560
Speaker 11: and both have really solid games, I think that is critical,

1258
00:55:43,719 --> 00:55:45,480
Speaker 11: and they know that they can lean on their defense

1259
00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:47,719
Speaker 11: when their offense is struggling. And Nico Collins should be

1260
00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:51,279
Speaker 11: back when he comes back from his injury. So if

1261
00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:53,600
Speaker 11: they can weather this storm on the offense, Coteine or

1262
00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:55,840
Speaker 11: Rite Joe Mixon, I think they'll be fine.

1263
00:55:56,280 --> 00:56:02,200
Speaker 2: Jonathan Taylor potentially back, and this one, Jonathan, your thoughts,

1264
00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:05,200
Speaker 2: even though the Texans did slow him down, it's really

1265
00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:08,800
Speaker 2: been the anomaly. In a seven game career against the Texans,

1266
00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:11,520
Speaker 2: he has torched them. Those have been different defenses, but

1267
00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:15,319
Speaker 2: even in Week eighteen he went off. Last year Week one,

1268
00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:17,880
Speaker 2: he's forty eight for sixteen. Now he had three hundred

1269
00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:20,080
Speaker 2: yard games after that, or two hundred yard games and

1270
00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:22,560
Speaker 2: then an eighty eight yard game before he got hurt.

1271
00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:26,480
Speaker 2: Your thoughts about facing Jonathan Taylor getting back into the

1272
00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:28,960
Speaker 2: lineup after being hurt and the history that he's had

1273
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:29,880
Speaker 2: against the Texans.

1274
00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:33,960
Speaker 11: Yeah, he's always dangerous no matter which version of the

1275
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:37,520
Speaker 11: Texans team he's playing, because even that last year's team

1276
00:56:37,640 --> 00:56:40,040
Speaker 11: which had been top six in the league and stopping

1277
00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:42,319
Speaker 11: a run top five and gave him one hundred eighty

1278
00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:43,840
Speaker 11: eight yards to him, So you just never know, and

1279
00:56:43,880 --> 00:56:45,840
Speaker 11: the Texans are going to ride him as much as possible.

1280
00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:49,480
Speaker 11: I think anytime you have Jonathan Taylor playing, he's going

1281
00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:52,399
Speaker 11: to be a danger for them, So all attention has

1282
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:54,239
Speaker 11: to be on that, and I think the Texans have

1283
00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:57,239
Speaker 11: actually done a really good job in recent weeks. They

1284
00:56:57,280 --> 00:57:00,400
Speaker 11: gave him a few big rushes to Jiss Jacobs. They

1285
00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:03,839
Speaker 11: have to prevent that from Jonathan Taylor, but I think

1286
00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:07,240
Speaker 11: they can get the job done because they've they've definitely

1287
00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:08,239
Speaker 11: improved in recent weeks.

1288
00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:11,560
Speaker 4: All Right, So how good can the Texans defense be Jonathan,

1289
00:57:11,640 --> 00:57:14,560
Speaker 4: because they're second in the league in total defense. Now

1290
00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:17,320
Speaker 4: as they bring that up, I hate to remind everybody

1291
00:57:17,360 --> 00:57:19,360
Speaker 4: that the Titans are number one, because it feels like

1292
00:57:19,400 --> 00:57:22,400
Speaker 4: it cheapens the stat when you say that although they

1293
00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:25,520
Speaker 4: have legit kept yardage totals down for the opponent and

1294
00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:28,440
Speaker 4: point totals as well. Texans second in the league in

1295
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:31,760
Speaker 4: total defense. How good can they be when they start

1296
00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:33,000
Speaker 4: firing on all cylinders.

1297
00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:34,840
Speaker 12: Yeah, I think they can be an elite team.

1298
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:36,720
Speaker 11: Right now, you're seeing they have one of the highest

1299
00:57:36,720 --> 00:57:38,800
Speaker 11: pressure rates, if not the highest, in the league, and

1300
00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:42,520
Speaker 11: I think that really has helped them, especially on the

1301
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:44,320
Speaker 11: back end with some of the injuries that they've had.

1302
00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:46,200
Speaker 11: But now you get Kamari Laster back, He's going to

1303
00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:48,640
Speaker 11: be a huge addition. You add Devin White as as

1304
00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:50,600
Speaker 11: a pretty good death piece, and you potentially add some

1305
00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:53,680
Speaker 11: more pieces onto there then along with Denico Archery as

1306
00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:55,520
Speaker 11: he gets his legs under him, I think they can

1307
00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:58,560
Speaker 11: continue to be this fierce team. But they've got to

1308
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:01,800
Speaker 11: cut back on touchdowns they've allowed. They've allowed the second

1309
00:58:01,880 --> 00:58:04,920
Speaker 11: most or first most in the league of fifteen and

1310
00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:06,880
Speaker 11: they only allowed seventeen last year. So I think that's

1311
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:09,560
Speaker 11: the one area they can clean up in particular, and

1312
00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:11,040
Speaker 11: health will play a big part in that.

1313
00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:13,840
Speaker 2: Johns, did you think that Joe Mixon would be as

1314
00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:17,160
Speaker 2: successful as he's been thus far this year?

1315
00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:20,000
Speaker 11: No, I didn't because I hadn't paid much attention to

1316
00:58:20,040 --> 00:58:23,120
Speaker 11: Joe Mixon last year and I saw the stats and

1317
00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:24,880
Speaker 11: I think he was just under a thousand yards if

1318
00:58:24,920 --> 00:58:28,240
Speaker 11: I'm not mistaken. So I you know, the assumption as

1319
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:30,960
Speaker 11: running mass get older is that maybe he's slowing down

1320
00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:34,280
Speaker 11: a little bit. But he's blown my expectations out the water.

1321
00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:38,240
Speaker 11: He looks rejuvenated. You know, he's motivated. He was mad

1322
00:58:38,680 --> 00:58:41,760
Speaker 11: that the Bengals didn't believe in him, and he wants

1323
00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:45,360
Speaker 11: to really show the rest of this world that what

1324
00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:48,080
Speaker 11: he is capable of. And I also think that Week

1325
00:58:48,120 --> 00:58:50,760
Speaker 11: one game or Week two game when he injured his

1326
00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:54,240
Speaker 11: ankle motivated him because he knew he was on a

1327
00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:57,880
Speaker 11: huge start to the season and he wants to be

1328
00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:01,080
Speaker 11: regarded as the top back in the NFL.

1329
00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:03,640
Speaker 12: So he is blowing my expectations out the water.

1330
00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:05,400
Speaker 4: Jonathan, what do you have going out on the Houston

1331
00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:06,440
Speaker 4: Chronicle for us?

1332
00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:09,800
Speaker 11: Yeah, so this Sunday, I'm taking a look at the

1333
00:59:09,880 --> 00:59:14,920
Speaker 11: offensive line and whether their issues are fixable. Most people

1334
00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:16,640
Speaker 11: just give you a little hit. Most people believe there

1335
00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:18,560
Speaker 11: are and now I'll try to explain why, and then

1336
00:59:18,600 --> 00:59:22,920
Speaker 11: you can follow Texans Insider for the latest newsletter, which

1337
00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:25,000
Speaker 11: comes out Thursdays and Mondays.

1338
00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:26,680
Speaker 3: Very nice, Jonathan, thanks a lot.

1339
00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:27,520
Speaker 12: Thanks for having me.

1340
00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:29,760
Speaker 2: Man, It's been awesome to have Jonathan on with us

1341
00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:33,240
Speaker 2: each and every Friday evening as we get ready for

1342
00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:36,040
Speaker 2: the game on Sunday. Don't know if we'll be able

1343
00:59:36,040 --> 00:59:38,640
Speaker 2: to get him next week for the Jets, but there'll

1344
00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:40,200
Speaker 2: be a lot to break down, so maybe we'll get

1345
00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:42,600
Speaker 2: him on Friday next week. We'll see how that goes

1346
00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:44,600
Speaker 2: as we take on the Jets. That's next week though. Man,

1347
00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:47,280
Speaker 2: we're gonna play two games and six days. O boy,

1348
00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:50,080
Speaker 2: Actually it's two games and five days, but I'm just

1349
00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:54,680
Speaker 2: counting from tonight, so Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. Two

1350
00:59:54,680 --> 00:59:57,240
Speaker 2: games and five nights. Oooh, that's gonna be tough. But

1351
00:59:57,880 --> 00:59:59,880
Speaker 2: gotta do what the NFL schedule makers make you do,

1352
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:02,000
Speaker 2: and that's what we gotta do. Speaking in the NFL

1353
01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:04,840
Speaker 2: schedule makers, we got a full slate. We got a

1354
01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:07,320
Speaker 2: couple of top notch games, and then we've got a

1355
01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:10,800
Speaker 2: lot of games between really really good and.

1356
01:00:10,680 --> 01:00:14,080
Speaker 1: Not so good. Can anybody pull at Kansas State?

1357
01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:17,680
Speaker 2: Wait, Knnessas State, y'all explain that next and make all

1358
01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:19,560
Speaker 2: the picks straight up and against the spread that you

1359
01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:22,560
Speaker 2: want for fun, for fun. Next right here on Texans

1360
01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:24,840
Speaker 2: All Access. What's up everybody? Walking back to this Friday

1361
01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:29,720
Speaker 2: edition to feel Good Friday Football Friday edition of Texans

1362
01:00:29,720 --> 01:00:31,680
Speaker 2: All Access. I'm your host, Sean Harris, footballing on a

1363
01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:36,200
Speaker 2: sideline reporter for your Houston Texans, and it's my favorite

1364
01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:40,360
Speaker 2: segment of the week. It's where I challenged myself Cerebray

1365
01:00:40,480 --> 01:00:43,840
Speaker 2: to pick games straight up and against the spread. And

1366
01:00:43,880 --> 01:00:45,920
Speaker 2: I know you're sit there going, wait a second, what's

1367
01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:48,360
Speaker 2: been your record? About ninety five percent? I mean, killing

1368
01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:50,880
Speaker 2: it like a plus style. And if you believe that,

1369
01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:54,200
Speaker 2: I've got riverfront property to sell you right here in Houston,

1370
01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:56,040
Speaker 2: he has been that good.

1371
01:00:56,040 --> 01:00:56,840
Speaker 1: But it's been okay.

1372
01:00:57,080 --> 01:00:57,520
Speaker 6: I think.

1373
01:00:57,880 --> 01:00:58,880
Speaker 1: I don't go back and check.

1374
01:00:58,920 --> 01:01:01,240
Speaker 2: I just love I love talking about the NFL and

1375
01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:03,800
Speaker 2: I love talking about the games that are taking place.

1376
01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:07,040
Speaker 1: So that's what I would do.

1377
01:01:07,080 --> 01:01:07,160
Speaker 5: Now.

1378
01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:08,800
Speaker 1: I would have lost last nights. I would have picked

1379
01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:11,400
Speaker 1: the Vikings, but knowing.

1380
01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:13,680
Speaker 2: That Pukinnukua and Cooper Cupp were coming back, I would

1381
01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:15,360
Speaker 2: have given the Rams a shot. And I can't remember

1382
01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:17,840
Speaker 2: what the number was going into that game, but Christian

1383
01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:21,520
Speaker 2: Darrisau goes out. Yeah, Minnesota was a three point favorite,

1384
01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:24,040
Speaker 2: two and a half point favorite, but man, the Rams

1385
01:01:24,120 --> 01:01:26,960
Speaker 2: look good. Got that safety late by Byron Young grabbed

1386
01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:31,840
Speaker 2: the face mask. Not called big win for the Rams, big, big,

1387
01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:35,520
Speaker 2: enormous gets him to three and four as the Vikings

1388
01:01:35,560 --> 01:01:38,680
Speaker 2: fall to five and two. Hopefully your Texans can get

1389
01:01:38,680 --> 01:01:41,680
Speaker 2: to six and two this weekend. Now, as you know,

1390
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:44,840
Speaker 2: I don't pick my heart my head. They conflict when

1391
01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:47,000
Speaker 2: I make picks, so I don't do that for any

1392
01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:50,560
Speaker 2: of the Texans games. But for those that might dabble

1393
01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:52,440
Speaker 2: in the Texans game, the number is going down. It

1394
01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:54,200
Speaker 2: was five and a half a couple of days ago.

1395
01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:57,600
Speaker 2: It's now five. Texans favored by five. They've covered the

1396
01:01:57,640 --> 01:02:00,640
Speaker 2: last three because the Bills were a favorite them outright.

1397
01:02:01,160 --> 01:02:03,720
Speaker 2: They were a favorite by like six or seven.

1398
01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:04,320
Speaker 1: At New England.

1399
01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:06,400
Speaker 2: They blew that away and then last week they were

1400
01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:09,080
Speaker 2: a three point underdog and they lost by two, so

1401
01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:11,880
Speaker 2: they just got it under But they've covered the last three,

1402
01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:14,959
Speaker 2: so it's down to five. So a lot of money

1403
01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:18,040
Speaker 2: I guess going towards Indianapolis. People liking getting five and

1404
01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:21,320
Speaker 2: a half numbers move down to five, so I won't

1405
01:02:21,320 --> 01:02:23,280
Speaker 2: pick that one hard and head, as you know, just

1406
01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:27,320
Speaker 2: I would pick the Texans and there you go. But

1407
01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:30,320
Speaker 2: we got plenty of games this weekend. Got a couple

1408
01:02:30,440 --> 01:02:34,520
Speaker 2: teams on buys this week, so not the full slate,

1409
01:02:34,640 --> 01:02:37,360
Speaker 2: but pretty darn close. So here we go, give me

1410
01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:40,160
Speaker 2: my music and it's time to rock.

1411
01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:41,640
Speaker 1: Okay.

1412
01:02:41,720 --> 01:02:43,960
Speaker 2: Every week I kind of look at the schedule, I'm like, Okay,

1413
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:46,400
Speaker 2: this is the five Star game of the week, this

1414
01:02:46,440 --> 01:02:48,800
Speaker 2: is the toilet Bowl matchup of the week. This is

1415
01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:52,720
Speaker 2: the game featuring teams with the worst records playing against

1416
01:02:52,760 --> 01:02:57,040
Speaker 2: one another. And that would be the next opponent for

1417
01:02:57,080 --> 01:03:00,480
Speaker 2: the Texans. The New York Jets two and five taking

1418
01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:04,440
Speaker 2: out of New England Patriots at one in six in Foxborough.

1419
01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:07,160
Speaker 2: The Jets are a seven point favorite. I think the

1420
01:03:07,240 --> 01:03:09,680
Speaker 2: Jets are gonna win this thing going away. I saw

1421
01:03:09,680 --> 01:03:13,400
Speaker 2: Greg Bdard, who's covered the Patriots for a long long time.

1422
01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:18,960
Speaker 2: He said that he's seen and heard as much dysfunction

1423
01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:24,080
Speaker 2: as he's ever heard about in New England. That tells me,

1424
01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:27,040
Speaker 2: oh boy, things not good. But a win can write

1425
01:03:27,040 --> 01:03:29,000
Speaker 2: this thing for the Patriots in a big way and

1426
01:03:29,160 --> 01:03:31,160
Speaker 2: really just mess with the Jets. But I don't think

1427
01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:32,760
Speaker 2: it's gonna happen. I think the Jets are gonna get

1428
01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:37,200
Speaker 2: this win. This feels very twenty four to fourteen ish.

1429
01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:39,000
Speaker 7: That's an under.

1430
01:03:39,080 --> 01:03:40,400
Speaker 2: I don't know how these teams are gonna get the

1431
01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:42,360
Speaker 2: forty point five points in this game.

1432
01:03:42,720 --> 01:03:45,680
Speaker 1: I think it's an undergame. It's twenty four to fourteen.

1433
01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:49,200
Speaker 2: That's ten as a spread in way of the Jets.

1434
01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:53,920
Speaker 2: So the Jets win and cover in Foxborough. Okay, let's

1435
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:58,080
Speaker 2: go to Cincinnati where the Eagles are taking on the

1436
01:03:58,200 --> 01:04:03,880
Speaker 2: Cincinnati Bengal in Cincinnati. Now, Cincinnati's favored by two and

1437
01:04:03,880 --> 01:04:06,040
Speaker 2: a half, and I I'll.

1438
01:04:05,920 --> 01:04:07,400
Speaker 1: Just be honest, I just don't get it.

1439
01:04:07,480 --> 01:04:11,080
Speaker 2: I don't get why everybody has thought the Bengals are

1440
01:04:11,120 --> 01:04:12,880
Speaker 2: gonna be all that and a bag of ships this

1441
01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:15,560
Speaker 2: year just because Joe Burrow's back. I get that, t

1442
01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:18,880
Speaker 2: Higgins obviously being back as held. So you got Tea Higgins,

1443
01:04:18,920 --> 01:04:21,959
Speaker 2: you got Jamar Chase. So offensively, I get it. Defensively,

1444
01:04:22,040 --> 01:04:24,760
Speaker 2: I really don't. I'm actually going with the upset here

1445
01:04:25,400 --> 01:04:27,600
Speaker 2: according to the points spread. I'm going with the Eagles

1446
01:04:28,240 --> 01:04:30,560
Speaker 2: to win this thing outright, to get the five to two.

1447
01:04:30,600 --> 01:04:32,840
Speaker 2: And look, I know the Eagles have not played exceedingly well,

1448
01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:36,120
Speaker 2: especially Jalen Hurts a quarterback. But Sakwon Barkley was a

1449
01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:39,560
Speaker 2: man child last week. I don't see the Bengals stopping him.

1450
01:04:39,960 --> 01:04:41,520
Speaker 2: I think the Eagles get the five and two, the

1451
01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:45,040
Speaker 2: Bengals fall two, three and five, and the Eagles get

1452
01:04:45,080 --> 01:04:48,280
Speaker 2: a quote unquote upset win. All right, let's go down

1453
01:04:48,320 --> 01:04:51,640
Speaker 2: to Duvall County, where the Jaguars are back from London

1454
01:04:51,680 --> 01:04:54,640
Speaker 2: after a win. Last week. They jumped all over the

1455
01:04:54,640 --> 01:04:57,160
Speaker 2: Patriots put thirty up on the board. The Jaguars have

1456
01:04:57,200 --> 01:04:59,080
Speaker 2: won twice this year. They scored thirty seven to thirty

1457
01:04:59,080 --> 01:05:01,440
Speaker 2: two in his wins, so that should tell you something.

1458
01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:04,040
Speaker 2: Can they get to thirty seven again against the Packers?

1459
01:05:04,040 --> 01:05:04,520
Speaker 1: Probably not.

1460
01:05:04,760 --> 01:05:07,200
Speaker 2: Packers are favored by four and a half. I think

1461
01:05:07,200 --> 01:05:09,560
Speaker 2: the Packers will be ready. I'm not sure the Jaguars

1462
01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:12,040
Speaker 2: are in the Packers' company. I think the Packers win

1463
01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:14,200
Speaker 2: this and cover that four and a half down in

1464
01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:17,640
Speaker 2: Duval County, and I'm hoping that the Packers do that

1465
01:05:17,920 --> 01:05:21,440
Speaker 2: and just take all the life out of that Jacksonville team.

1466
01:05:21,680 --> 01:05:23,080
Speaker 1: Speaking of AFC.

1467
01:05:22,680 --> 01:05:26,240
Speaker 2: South, the Titans are one and five and they're going

1468
01:05:26,280 --> 01:05:27,680
Speaker 2: to the motor City to take.

1469
01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:30,800
Speaker 1: On the Lions. The Lions are eleven point favorites.

1470
01:05:31,840 --> 01:05:33,960
Speaker 2: I don't know that the Titans can even score eleven

1471
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:37,080
Speaker 2: at this point, but Mason Rudolph will probably start again.

1472
01:05:37,920 --> 01:05:39,960
Speaker 2: I don't think the Titans can play with the Lions.

1473
01:05:40,280 --> 01:05:41,880
Speaker 2: The only thing that worries me is the Lions have

1474
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:43,560
Speaker 2: a little bit of a letdown. You get the back

1475
01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:45,440
Speaker 2: door cover, but I don't think it's gonna happen. I'm

1476
01:05:45,440 --> 01:05:50,960
Speaker 2: going thirty five fourteen Lions, although the Titans have pretty

1477
01:05:50,960 --> 01:05:53,800
Speaker 2: good defense, but I think it's mistakes that will pile

1478
01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:57,360
Speaker 2: up and the Lions get thirty five at home, they win,

1479
01:05:57,600 --> 01:05:58,080
Speaker 2: they cover.

1480
01:05:58,760 --> 01:05:59,800
Speaker 1: Moving on.

1481
01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:02,640
Speaker 2: Okay, so at that point, I've projected AFC South to

1482
01:06:02,720 --> 01:06:06,120
Speaker 2: lose Jaguars lose Titans. If the Colts lose Man, that's

1483
01:06:06,360 --> 01:06:08,040
Speaker 2: well they would lose US and that would be a great,

1484
01:06:08,040 --> 01:06:11,440
Speaker 2: great weekend. Okay, let's go to the NFC South, a

1485
01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:15,960
Speaker 2: matchup for the top of the division. The Falcons at

1486
01:06:16,040 --> 01:06:19,200
Speaker 2: four and three the Buccaneers at four and three. The

1487
01:06:19,240 --> 01:06:22,880
Speaker 2: game is in Tampa, yet Atlanta is favored by three

1488
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:23,640
Speaker 2: or two and a half.

1489
01:06:24,440 --> 01:06:27,640
Speaker 1: Part of that is Tampa Bay doesn't even receivers. They're

1490
01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:28,960
Speaker 1: all hurt.

1491
01:06:29,040 --> 01:06:31,480
Speaker 2: Mike Evans hurt because God went out. I think for

1492
01:06:31,520 --> 01:06:35,800
Speaker 2: the season, it's gonna be tough for Tampa Bay. Even

1493
01:06:35,800 --> 01:06:37,919
Speaker 2: though I like Baker Mayfield, I just don't know there's

1494
01:06:37,920 --> 01:06:41,520
Speaker 2: got enough weapons. I think the Falcons outscore the Bucks

1495
01:06:41,520 --> 01:06:43,520
Speaker 2: in this one. That Monday night game is gonna leave

1496
01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:45,840
Speaker 2: a stain. I think the Falcons are gonna win this

1497
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:48,160
Speaker 2: and cover the two and a half. I don't like

1498
01:06:48,320 --> 01:06:52,400
Speaker 2: road favorites like ever, but I'm going with one here

1499
01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:55,560
Speaker 2: because of the health or lack thereof for the Tampa

1500
01:06:55,560 --> 01:06:56,280
Speaker 2: Bay Buccaneers.

1501
01:06:56,360 --> 01:06:58,480
Speaker 1: So Falcons win and cover that two and a half.

1502
01:06:58,520 --> 01:07:01,400
Speaker 2: The Cardinals are take on the Dolphins, and what's the

1503
01:07:01,400 --> 01:07:05,240
Speaker 2: big news in this one. Tua Tunga Bailoa is back

1504
01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:09,840
Speaker 2: and that makes Miami a four point favorite. Now what

1505
01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:12,360
Speaker 2: does two would do in that first start back? I

1506
01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:14,720
Speaker 2: think he hauls off and throws it deep. And for

1507
01:07:14,800 --> 01:07:17,520
Speaker 2: that reason, I think Minai Dolphins gonna win this thing

1508
01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:21,480
Speaker 2: by about ten thirty four to twenty four sounds about right. Cardinals,

1509
01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:23,840
Speaker 2: they'll be top, they'll hang in there. But I think

1510
01:07:23,840 --> 01:07:26,640
Speaker 2: with Tua back, it brings Tyreek and Jayalen waddle to

1511
01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:30,280
Speaker 2: their full and utmost explosiveness levels, and I think the

1512
01:07:30,320 --> 01:07:32,720
Speaker 2: Dolphins will win this thing by ten covering the four.

1513
01:07:33,800 --> 01:07:38,120
Speaker 2: Oh boy, I would say, the poor Browns, but you

1514
01:07:38,200 --> 01:07:41,720
Speaker 2: reaput you, so I suppose. But the Ravens, fresh off

1515
01:07:41,760 --> 01:07:45,880
Speaker 2: a Monday night victory down in Tampa, have to go

1516
01:07:45,960 --> 01:07:46,960
Speaker 2: on the road again.

1517
01:07:47,680 --> 01:07:50,880
Speaker 1: But it's to Cleveland and it's gonna get ugly.

1518
01:07:51,360 --> 01:07:55,440
Speaker 2: The Ravens are going to pound the Browns, pound them,

1519
01:07:55,840 --> 01:07:57,880
Speaker 2: although I wouldn't mind seeing the Browns bring the Ravens

1520
01:07:57,880 --> 01:07:59,880
Speaker 2: back down to or is not happen. Raves are gonna

1521
01:07:59,880 --> 01:08:02,920
Speaker 2: win this thing by fourteen or more. They will just

1522
01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:05,920
Speaker 2: dominate this football game. Even though they had to go

1523
01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:09,240
Speaker 2: Monday night roads Sunday road. That's a tough that's tough,

1524
01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:11,560
Speaker 2: but it's happening more often in the NFL.

1525
01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:13,720
Speaker 1: I think the Jets had to do that. It could

1526
01:08:13,720 --> 01:08:15,320
Speaker 1: be tough. The Bills had to do that.

1527
01:08:16,280 --> 01:08:20,599
Speaker 2: It's a rough one, so Monday night road Sunday road.

1528
01:08:20,600 --> 01:08:22,240
Speaker 2: But I still think the Ravens covered the eight and

1529
01:08:22,240 --> 01:08:25,000
Speaker 2: a half. That they are favored by the Saints and Chargers. Man,

1530
01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:27,320
Speaker 2: I can't figure either one of these teams out. I

1531
01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:29,800
Speaker 2: don't like either one of them, to be honest. The

1532
01:08:29,880 --> 01:08:31,599
Speaker 2: Chargers are three and three, they're playing at home. They're

1533
01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:33,160
Speaker 2: playing a little bit better ball than the Saints. The

1534
01:08:33,160 --> 01:08:36,519
Speaker 2: Saints are just on their final breaths. Chargers are faired

1535
01:08:36,520 --> 01:08:38,760
Speaker 2: by seven. I like the Chargers to win, but I

1536
01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:41,040
Speaker 2: think the Saints will get inside that number. Bill Seahawks,

1537
01:08:41,080 --> 01:08:43,040
Speaker 2: that's a pretty good football game out in Seattle. Buffalo

1538
01:08:43,120 --> 01:08:46,360
Speaker 2: is favored by three, and I think Buffalo is kind

1539
01:08:46,360 --> 01:08:48,960
Speaker 2: of rounding back in the shape, getting some guys healthy,

1540
01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:51,720
Speaker 2: Mark Cooper getting in the fold for another week. I

1541
01:08:51,720 --> 01:08:54,040
Speaker 2: think Buffalo's gonna go out to Seattle and they're gonna

1542
01:08:54,040 --> 01:08:56,840
Speaker 2: win that game and cover the three. They're gonna win

1543
01:08:56,880 --> 01:09:00,280
Speaker 2: that one, twenty seven to twenty three. That will cover

1544
01:09:00,360 --> 01:09:03,040
Speaker 2: the three Bears. Commanders good football game here. Don't know

1545
01:09:03,040 --> 01:09:05,679
Speaker 2: if we're gonna see Jayden and Daniels which stinks, probably

1546
01:09:05,760 --> 01:09:08,080
Speaker 2: not dealing with that rib issue, but we'll see a

1547
01:09:08,080 --> 01:09:11,920
Speaker 2: little closer to game time. Chicago's favored by three against

1548
01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:16,759
Speaker 2: the Commanders because of Jade Daniels health or lack thereof.

1549
01:09:17,040 --> 01:09:18,719
Speaker 2: I feel good about the way the Bears are playing,

1550
01:09:18,760 --> 01:09:20,320
Speaker 2: but we'll see how they come off to buy after

1551
01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:23,320
Speaker 2: London trip. I'm gonna go with the Bears to beat

1552
01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:26,599
Speaker 2: the Commanders and cover that three Panthers Broncos. Broncos are

1553
01:09:26,640 --> 01:09:28,719
Speaker 2: favored by ten and a half. Bryce Young will start.

1554
01:09:28,760 --> 01:09:30,639
Speaker 2: I'm excited for that. I want to see him turn

1555
01:09:30,680 --> 01:09:33,439
Speaker 2: this thing around. But I'm going Broncos to win. But

1556
01:09:33,479 --> 01:09:36,840
Speaker 2: that's ten and a half, you know what. I'm giving

1557
01:09:36,880 --> 01:09:38,800
Speaker 2: it to them because I think Bryce will make a mistake.

1558
01:09:38,520 --> 01:09:39,160
Speaker 1: And that'll be it.

1559
01:09:39,320 --> 01:09:43,960
Speaker 2: Chiefs Raiders in Las Vegas. Chiefs haven't played seedingly well,

1560
01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:45,960
Speaker 2: but they're a nine and a half point favorite. That's

1561
01:09:45,960 --> 01:09:51,599
Speaker 2: a little bit much, even though the Raiders, Yeah, it's

1562
01:09:51,680 --> 01:09:54,519
Speaker 2: just not it's not good news for the Raiders. I'm

1563
01:09:54,520 --> 01:09:56,639
Speaker 2: going with the Chiefs to win this, but that numbers

1564
01:09:56,640 --> 01:09:58,320
Speaker 2: too large. I think the Raiders will get inside that

1565
01:09:58,400 --> 01:09:59,880
Speaker 2: nine and a half, So let's go Chiefs to win.

1566
01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:02,880
Speaker 2: Raiders get inside the nine and a half. Cowboys forty

1567
01:10:02,960 --> 01:10:06,400
Speaker 2: nine Ers Sunday Night Babe San Francisco is favored by

1568
01:10:06,439 --> 01:10:09,800
Speaker 2: four and a half, but Kittle debo questionable.

1569
01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:13,280
Speaker 1: Juant Jennings out, I don't think the Cowboys will win this.

1570
01:10:13,760 --> 01:10:14,200
Speaker 1: I don't.

1571
01:10:14,880 --> 01:10:16,720
Speaker 2: I'm going with the Niners, and I think they'll winning

1572
01:10:16,720 --> 01:10:18,880
Speaker 2: by a touchdown twenty seven to twenty.

1573
01:10:18,960 --> 01:10:21,200
Speaker 1: Let's go with that. That'll cover the four and a half.

1574
01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:24,080
Speaker 2: And then Giants Steelers on Monday Night, Steelers at home.

1575
01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:24,960
Speaker 2: They're fair by six.

1576
01:10:25,240 --> 01:10:28,880
Speaker 1: Giants tackles are both dead offensive tackles. Ugh, I think

1577
01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:31,479
Speaker 1: Steelers are gonna dominate. They'll win and win it by

1578
01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:34,200
Speaker 1: more than six. All right, we get back. It's a

1579
01:10:34,200 --> 01:10:34,960
Speaker 1: feel good Friday.

1580
01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:37,400
Speaker 2: That means Tomika Ryan stops by. That'll make us all

1581
01:10:37,439 --> 01:10:40,000
Speaker 2: feel good. That's next the Texas All Access. We won't

1582
01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:42,600
Speaker 2: find a segment of this initiative. Texans All Access. On

1583
01:10:42,640 --> 01:10:47,679
Speaker 2: a beautiful Friday evening, and it's Friday, it's feel good Friday.

1584
01:10:47,720 --> 01:10:50,599
Speaker 2: We'd love to feel good when we go home on

1585
01:10:50,720 --> 01:10:53,400
Speaker 2: Friday as we get ready for the weekend. And for us,

1586
01:10:53,439 --> 01:10:55,920
Speaker 2: that means we're thinking about the game on Sunday and

1587
01:10:55,960 --> 01:10:58,280
Speaker 2: this weekend it's against the Colts. But when I want

1588
01:10:58,320 --> 01:11:01,000
Speaker 2: to feel good, I want to hear for the r

1589
01:11:01,080 --> 01:11:04,040
Speaker 2: as they call him, the Miko Ryans.

1590
01:11:04,439 --> 01:11:05,960
Speaker 1: So let's do it. Mark and I had a chance

1591
01:11:05,960 --> 01:11:07,920
Speaker 1: to catch up with them. This is from his Coaches Show.

1592
01:11:08,200 --> 01:11:11,000
Speaker 2: But it's always good to just listen to Miko talk

1593
01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:13,000
Speaker 2: about that game against the Packers, things that have to

1594
01:11:13,000 --> 01:11:16,000
Speaker 2: be cleaned up, and then getting ready for the Colts.

1595
01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:18,599
Speaker 1: Here's to go Ryans on a feel good Friday.

1596
01:11:19,800 --> 01:11:21,960
Speaker 3: Here we are with head coach Demiko Ryans, coach.

1597
01:11:22,040 --> 01:11:25,200
Speaker 4: Great to see him big week with the Colts coming in.

1598
01:11:25,320 --> 01:11:27,000
Speaker 4: I know we have to review what happened against the

1599
01:11:27,040 --> 01:11:29,840
Speaker 4: Packers and how do you balance what went wrong in

1600
01:11:29,880 --> 01:11:32,040
Speaker 4: the game and what went right also because there were

1601
01:11:32,080 --> 01:11:33,400
Speaker 4: some good things you want to take with you, but

1602
01:11:33,439 --> 01:11:34,880
Speaker 4: you got to correct a lot of things as well.

1603
01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:36,800
Speaker 8: And great to be with you guys again. It was

1604
01:11:36,920 --> 01:11:39,360
Speaker 8: what you said, Mark, That's what it was like. Every

1605
01:11:39,400 --> 01:11:42,080
Speaker 8: game for me is a learning opportunity, is a teaching

1606
01:11:42,120 --> 01:11:44,519
Speaker 8: opportunity as we go back and review the game.

1607
01:11:45,000 --> 01:11:45,120
Speaker 7: Man.

1608
01:11:45,160 --> 01:11:47,280
Speaker 8: Then, like you said, there were a ton of positive things,

1609
01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:51,400
Speaker 8: a ton of big plays made offense, defense, special teams

1610
01:11:51,400 --> 01:11:52,880
Speaker 8: that I never lose sight of us. I want our

1611
01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:55,240
Speaker 8: guys to see the impact plays that were made. Our

1612
01:11:55,320 --> 01:11:58,599
Speaker 8: special teams played outstanding, right, Damien was able to get

1613
01:11:58,640 --> 01:12:02,240
Speaker 8: an explosive return. Tommy punted the ball really well. I

1614
01:12:02,240 --> 01:12:05,880
Speaker 8: mean we forced a turnover on special teams and we

1615
01:12:05,920 --> 01:12:07,840
Speaker 8: had a couple of punts where we backed them up

1616
01:12:08,240 --> 01:12:11,439
Speaker 8: man Kayemi making the Hall of his kicks like so

1617
01:12:11,479 --> 01:12:14,519
Speaker 8: they played out standing for us. They created momentum for

1618
01:12:14,560 --> 01:12:18,640
Speaker 8: our team. And defensively, guys were able to get two takeaways,

1619
01:12:18,720 --> 01:12:22,680
Speaker 8: get a couple of sacks. Offensively when we ran the

1620
01:12:22,720 --> 01:12:27,280
Speaker 8: ball really well, right, ran the ball really well. And

1621
01:12:27,320 --> 01:12:29,280
Speaker 8: then when we needed a drive to go down and

1622
01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:31,040
Speaker 8: get points, we got points at the end to give

1623
01:12:31,120 --> 01:12:33,120
Speaker 8: us a chance right to close the game out. So

1624
01:12:33,439 --> 01:12:36,120
Speaker 8: a lot of great things that happened. It didn't end

1625
01:12:36,160 --> 01:12:38,599
Speaker 8: the way we wanted it to end, but we learned

1626
01:12:38,600 --> 01:12:40,920
Speaker 8: from that. And I hope our guys take from the

1627
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:44,639
Speaker 8: game is, Man, we were in position right and moving

1628
01:12:44,720 --> 01:12:46,759
Speaker 8: forward like we're in position again.

1629
01:12:47,200 --> 01:12:49,880
Speaker 7: Hopefully you understand remember that moment.

1630
01:12:50,000 --> 01:12:52,240
Speaker 8: In Green Bay where we didn't close it out, and

1631
01:12:52,280 --> 01:12:54,600
Speaker 8: the things you need to change and do different to

1632
01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:56,559
Speaker 8: put yourself in position and make plays.

1633
01:12:56,800 --> 01:12:57,280
Speaker 7: Cause you're the.

1634
01:12:57,280 --> 01:13:01,480
Speaker 2: First five games Henry and Disease played every play linebacker.

1635
01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:05,160
Speaker 2: Now they're not there. You're going there and it's just different.

1636
01:13:05,600 --> 01:13:08,600
Speaker 2: It's Neville and it's Jake. How did that go? Just

1637
01:13:08,600 --> 01:13:11,599
Speaker 2: communication wise, it felt like Neville. There was no drop off,

1638
01:13:11,680 --> 01:13:13,559
Speaker 2: there was no change. Those guys went out and made plays.

1639
01:13:13,600 --> 01:13:15,240
Speaker 2: What did you think of the way those two linebackers

1640
01:13:15,240 --> 01:13:16,000
Speaker 2: played yesterday.

1641
01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:19,720
Speaker 8: Yeah, Neville was a veteran linebacker and he stepped right

1642
01:13:19,760 --> 01:13:23,080
Speaker 8: in and like you said, it was no issues with communication.

1643
01:13:23,240 --> 01:13:26,799
Speaker 8: He communicated very well. He did his job very well.

1644
01:13:27,360 --> 01:13:30,599
Speaker 8: Neville and Jake, both guys had really good weeks of practice.

1645
01:13:31,200 --> 01:13:33,559
Speaker 8: So that gave me confidence as a coach going into

1646
01:13:33,600 --> 01:13:35,320
Speaker 8: the game that they were going to be in the

1647
01:13:35,400 --> 01:13:37,120
Speaker 8: right spots, they were going to make some plays.

1648
01:13:37,200 --> 01:13:38,000
Speaker 7: Was it all clean?

1649
01:13:38,120 --> 01:13:40,320
Speaker 8: No, But man, for those guys to step in and

1650
01:13:40,360 --> 01:13:43,599
Speaker 8: play the most that they played in a long time.

1651
01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:44,879
Speaker 7: Like, I'm very.

1652
01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:46,960
Speaker 8: Proud of the way the effort that they gave and

1653
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:49,240
Speaker 8: even the playmaking that they made as well.

1654
01:13:49,280 --> 01:13:51,200
Speaker 4: Plus you get two picks in the game. Neville has

1655
01:13:51,240 --> 01:13:53,599
Speaker 4: one callin as the other has three on the season.

1656
01:13:53,720 --> 01:13:55,680
Speaker 4: And you had other opportunities as well. I see the

1657
01:13:55,680 --> 01:13:59,160
Speaker 4: safeties and the DVS coach practicing those tip drills whatever,

1658
01:14:00,040 --> 01:14:02,120
Speaker 4: watching the ball back there trying to help them catch it.

1659
01:14:02,280 --> 01:14:04,639
Speaker 4: But it's tough sometimes to get the ball located properly.

1660
01:14:04,760 --> 01:14:05,760
Speaker 4: Yet you did make some play.

1661
01:14:05,880 --> 01:14:06,599
Speaker 7: Yeah, you may play.

1662
01:14:06,600 --> 01:14:08,519
Speaker 8: I mean, as I showed the guys, like when you

1663
01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:13,160
Speaker 8: see on Kaitlin's interception. Like when the coverage is tight

1664
01:14:13,680 --> 01:14:16,120
Speaker 8: and we're playing single high safety and the coverage is

1665
01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:18,320
Speaker 8: tight and Kaylan is roam in the middle of the field,

1666
01:14:18,720 --> 01:14:20,439
Speaker 8: he can go up and make those plays. Just have

1667
01:14:20,479 --> 01:14:23,040
Speaker 8: to force the quarterback right to elevate the throw and

1668
01:14:23,120 --> 01:14:25,280
Speaker 8: Kayln can go make any catch he needs to make.

1669
01:14:25,560 --> 01:14:27,360
Speaker 8: But it starts with the rush, it starts with the

1670
01:14:27,360 --> 01:14:30,639
Speaker 8: covers that was tight. On Neville's pick, he just goes

1671
01:14:30,680 --> 01:14:32,759
Speaker 8: back to what I harp on and what I truly

1672
01:14:32,800 --> 01:14:37,680
Speaker 8: believe in is out executing your opponent. And on Nevill's interception,

1673
01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:41,599
Speaker 8: you have to watch Jalen Petrie and his technique as

1674
01:14:41,640 --> 01:14:44,240
Speaker 8: a quarter flat depend defender on number two like he

1675
01:14:44,320 --> 01:14:47,160
Speaker 8: played with excellent technique, patience and for him to get

1676
01:14:47,200 --> 01:14:49,960
Speaker 8: his eyes back on the quarterback and to tip the pass,

1677
01:14:50,479 --> 01:14:53,439
Speaker 8: it was outstanding play by him and calls Neville to

1678
01:14:53,479 --> 01:14:56,479
Speaker 8: get the interception. So it's just a reminder for our

1679
01:14:56,479 --> 01:15:00,559
Speaker 8: guys it's always, always, always truly believe in you're technique

1680
01:15:01,120 --> 01:15:04,559
Speaker 8: and execute. If you execute well, that's when the big

1681
01:15:04,600 --> 01:15:06,639
Speaker 8: plays are made. It's not when you try to go

1682
01:15:06,680 --> 01:15:09,120
Speaker 8: and do something out of the scheme or try to

1683
01:15:09,160 --> 01:15:10,280
Speaker 8: make a hero play.

1684
01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:11,920
Speaker 7: That's not when the big plays happened.

1685
01:15:11,960 --> 01:15:13,120
Speaker 1: Because we went to New England.

1686
01:15:13,200 --> 01:15:15,400
Speaker 2: We started off really well the first quarter, second quarter

1687
01:15:15,600 --> 01:15:18,000
Speaker 2: we kind of got mired and some muck. This week

1688
01:15:18,040 --> 01:15:19,920
Speaker 2: we go to Green Bay. First quarter, kind of get

1689
01:15:19,920 --> 01:15:23,120
Speaker 2: through it. But then the second quarter really just kind

1690
01:15:23,120 --> 01:15:25,479
Speaker 2: of took off. And large part that was Joe and

1691
01:15:25,560 --> 01:15:28,200
Speaker 2: the run game. What was clicking in the run game

1692
01:15:28,680 --> 01:15:30,800
Speaker 2: up front? Why was it really working the way that

1693
01:15:30,880 --> 01:15:33,800
Speaker 2: it was? And again, how good is it def Joe

1694
01:15:33,840 --> 01:15:35,080
Speaker 2: back man?

1695
01:15:35,439 --> 01:15:35,920
Speaker 7: So great?

1696
01:15:36,120 --> 01:15:36,840
Speaker 3: It's so great.

1697
01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:40,880
Speaker 8: Joe oh Man, he's such an impressive players. It's his

1698
01:15:41,000 --> 01:15:44,040
Speaker 8: play style, his demeanor. It jumps off the tape, man

1699
01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:46,759
Speaker 8: is when he touches the ball, you know something positive

1700
01:15:46,840 --> 01:15:49,559
Speaker 8: is gonna happen, and it starts up front, Like I know,

1701
01:15:49,600 --> 01:15:51,360
Speaker 8: our old line is getting a lot of slack for

1702
01:15:51,680 --> 01:15:54,240
Speaker 8: pass protection. Well, we ran the ball for I think

1703
01:15:54,280 --> 01:15:56,800
Speaker 8: over one hundred and forty yards two touchdowns.

1704
01:15:57,040 --> 01:15:59,639
Speaker 7: That's because of the old line and the way they blocked.

1705
01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:01,559
Speaker 8: We got a hat on the hat and we were

1706
01:16:01,600 --> 01:16:05,559
Speaker 8: clean Schematically, everybody's where they were supposed to be, Like,

1707
01:16:05,640 --> 01:16:07,679
Speaker 8: there are a lot of creases for Joe to run through,

1708
01:16:07,680 --> 01:16:10,240
Speaker 8: and Joe doesn't run, the way he runs without the

1709
01:16:10,240 --> 01:16:14,439
Speaker 8: O line, the tight ends receivers, everybody blocking and dialed

1710
01:16:14,479 --> 01:16:16,640
Speaker 8: in on the details of their job. So that's how

1711
01:16:16,720 --> 01:16:18,559
Speaker 8: Joe is able to have a big day. And one

1712
01:16:18,600 --> 01:16:21,240
Speaker 8: of my favorite runs is that things. Maybe his first

1713
01:16:21,280 --> 01:16:25,320
Speaker 8: touchdown run you got cased over, slicing back behind a

1714
01:16:25,360 --> 01:16:27,519
Speaker 8: lot of scrimmage, and the way he finishes on one

1715
01:16:27,520 --> 01:16:30,920
Speaker 8: of their d nds. It's a physical block, physical finish

1716
01:16:31,360 --> 01:16:32,720
Speaker 8: like that gets me fired up.

1717
01:16:32,920 --> 01:16:35,599
Speaker 2: And before that, the play before that, Teagan takes care

1718
01:16:35,600 --> 01:16:38,360
Speaker 2: of a linebacker on that play. Your tight ends, those

1719
01:16:38,360 --> 01:16:39,960
Speaker 2: two in particulars seem to give you some good in

1720
01:16:39,960 --> 01:16:40,599
Speaker 2: the run game too.

1721
01:16:40,640 --> 01:16:42,640
Speaker 8: Yeah, tight ends, they they've done a great job in

1722
01:16:42,680 --> 01:16:45,160
Speaker 8: a run game. And you know that's where we have

1723
01:16:45,200 --> 01:16:47,599
Speaker 8: to keep leaning on those guys. They can keep getting better,

1724
01:16:47,760 --> 01:16:50,559
Speaker 8: keep finishing blocks. But they have the tools, they have

1725
01:16:50,640 --> 01:16:52,320
Speaker 8: what it takes to finish in the run game. We

1726
01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:54,479
Speaker 8: just have to stay after it and we have to

1727
01:16:54,520 --> 01:16:57,400
Speaker 8: just get better in our protection schematically.

1728
01:16:57,520 --> 01:16:59,400
Speaker 4: Yes, So what are some of those things, coach that

1729
01:16:59,439 --> 01:17:01,559
Speaker 4: are bothering you in past protection right now?

1730
01:17:01,680 --> 01:17:05,960
Speaker 8: Yeah, it starts with I think overall, it starts with communicating, right,

1731
01:17:06,000 --> 01:17:09,840
Speaker 8: communicating and when I say communicating, that's like everybody being

1732
01:17:09,880 --> 01:17:12,960
Speaker 8: on the same page with you have these calls, whether

1733
01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:15,880
Speaker 8: you're you know you're sliding the one side or you're

1734
01:17:15,960 --> 01:17:20,560
Speaker 8: manning inside, Like know who you're blocking first and foremost,

1735
01:17:20,760 --> 01:17:24,120
Speaker 8: Like that's the one thing. Know where you're going, know

1736
01:17:24,160 --> 01:17:25,920
Speaker 8: who you're working with, so you can be on the

1737
01:17:25,960 --> 01:17:28,920
Speaker 8: same page. So it starts there with our guys being

1738
01:17:28,960 --> 01:17:31,360
Speaker 8: on the same page and then just executing right some

1739
01:17:31,400 --> 01:17:33,960
Speaker 8: of the stunts and games that we've seen, Like we

1740
01:17:34,120 --> 01:17:36,720
Speaker 8: just have to be better at knowing how far we

1741
01:17:36,800 --> 01:17:39,160
Speaker 8: need to slide to a side or if we need

1742
01:17:39,200 --> 01:17:42,439
Speaker 8: to set back deeper in protection. So punching with two

1743
01:17:42,479 --> 01:17:46,200
Speaker 8: hands versus one hands, just some technical things, small things

1744
01:17:46,240 --> 01:17:48,280
Speaker 8: that can definitely be cleaned up.

1745
01:17:48,560 --> 01:17:50,000
Speaker 7: So that's why I'm encouraged by.

1746
01:17:50,040 --> 01:17:53,639
Speaker 8: It's not like, oh, it's something revolutionary that we've never seen.

1747
01:17:53,800 --> 01:17:55,960
Speaker 8: It's like, no, man, we can clean this up. We

1748
01:17:56,080 --> 01:17:59,439
Speaker 8: just have to play with proper technique every single time

1749
01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:01,960
Speaker 8: and just execute and finish the right way.

1750
01:18:02,040 --> 01:18:04,160
Speaker 4: What was the relationship like with you and Bobby and

1751
01:18:04,200 --> 01:18:06,000
Speaker 4: Jeff Halfley when he was in San Francisco.

1752
01:18:06,320 --> 01:18:08,599
Speaker 8: Yeah, Man spent a lot of time with Jeff when

1753
01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:10,720
Speaker 8: I first got in the coach and Jeff was the

1754
01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:14,640
Speaker 8: secondary coach out in San Francisco, so spent a lot

1755
01:18:14,680 --> 01:18:16,920
Speaker 8: of time him. Jeff was very Me and Bobby were

1756
01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:21,040
Speaker 8: QC's at the time, were both defensive QCs. So Jeff

1757
01:18:21,160 --> 01:18:23,519
Speaker 8: was a veteran coach, been there a while, and I

1758
01:18:23,640 --> 01:18:26,840
Speaker 8: learned a lot from Jeff, just on coverage, like the

1759
01:18:26,880 --> 01:18:31,519
Speaker 8: way he taught DB's press coverage really detailed. Coach, really

1760
01:18:31,560 --> 01:18:34,000
Speaker 8: did a great job with those guys out there, and

1761
01:18:34,080 --> 01:18:35,920
Speaker 8: he had the opportunity to go to Boston College as

1762
01:18:35,920 --> 01:18:36,479
Speaker 8: a head coach.

1763
01:18:36,640 --> 01:18:38,320
Speaker 7: You're all fired up for him.

1764
01:18:38,520 --> 01:18:40,240
Speaker 2: Coach, I think one of the players that stands up

1765
01:18:40,280 --> 01:18:42,960
Speaker 2: to me that goes to what you've been saying, and

1766
01:18:42,960 --> 01:18:45,120
Speaker 2: I would imagine maybe it's something you showed your team,

1767
01:18:45,120 --> 01:18:49,120
Speaker 2: but it's just it's like one moment in time, that

1768
01:18:49,360 --> 01:18:53,000
Speaker 2: late drive second and twelve where Joe runs at zone

1769
01:18:53,040 --> 01:18:56,599
Speaker 2: play and Cade comes across and kicks out Preston. If

1770
01:18:56,640 --> 01:18:58,960
Speaker 2: you get one down block, maybe Joe cuts behind, and

1771
01:18:59,000 --> 01:19:00,920
Speaker 2: it feels like and that's the rung game that had

1772
01:19:00,920 --> 01:19:04,559
Speaker 2: been pretty successful, but it's like one spot that really

1773
01:19:04,640 --> 01:19:07,120
Speaker 2: just then you clean that up and maybe Joe walks

1774
01:19:07,160 --> 01:19:09,040
Speaker 2: in the end zone. You don't have to kick the fugal.

1775
01:19:08,800 --> 01:19:09,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, for sure.

1776
01:19:09,439 --> 01:19:12,479
Speaker 8: And that's that's the thing I showed you guys, like

1777
01:19:12,600 --> 01:19:15,680
Speaker 8: just to show you know how we're how close we

1778
01:19:15,720 --> 01:19:17,920
Speaker 8: are to scoring on that. But a lot of people

1779
01:19:18,000 --> 01:19:20,360
Speaker 8: are giving a lot of criticism about the lad well.

1780
01:19:20,760 --> 01:19:22,679
Speaker 7: If we block it.

1781
01:19:22,160 --> 01:19:25,000
Speaker 8: The right way and we are on one person and

1782
01:19:25,160 --> 01:19:28,040
Speaker 8: we're Joe's cutting that ball back, he's right down heel

1783
01:19:28,120 --> 01:19:31,280
Speaker 8: off a shack for a touchdown. Because that's that's how

1784
01:19:31,360 --> 01:19:33,479
Speaker 8: clean the picture would have been, and that's how close

1785
01:19:33,520 --> 01:19:33,880
Speaker 8: we are.

1786
01:19:34,000 --> 01:19:35,920
Speaker 7: So man, I'm encouraged.

1787
01:19:36,320 --> 01:19:39,840
Speaker 8: I'm fired up for the next opportunity because I know

1788
01:19:39,920 --> 01:19:42,519
Speaker 8: the plays our guys can make, and I know, of

1789
01:19:42,560 --> 01:19:45,759
Speaker 8: course we clean up a few things, but I'm excited

1790
01:19:45,760 --> 01:19:46,559
Speaker 8: about where we're hitting.

1791
01:19:46,720 --> 01:19:49,200
Speaker 3: It's play calling. If it works, great, If it doesn't work,

1792
01:19:50,520 --> 01:19:51,240
Speaker 3: how that goes?

1793
01:19:51,640 --> 01:19:51,760
Speaker 5: All?

1794
01:19:51,840 --> 01:19:51,920
Speaker 6: Right?

1795
01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:54,200
Speaker 4: So the Colts come in here, and it wasn't that

1796
01:19:54,320 --> 01:19:57,000
Speaker 4: long ago. You saw the Colts on opening Day, richardson

1797
01:19:57,120 --> 01:19:58,719
Speaker 4: his back with them, he was out for a while.

1798
01:19:58,760 --> 01:20:01,519
Speaker 4: They're coming off of victory and this is absolutely huge.

1799
01:20:01,800 --> 01:20:04,000
Speaker 8: Yeah, man, you couldn't say it any better. A right

1800
01:20:04,160 --> 01:20:08,439
Speaker 8: huge game for his division opponent, rival game. Uh we

1801
01:20:08,520 --> 01:20:11,920
Speaker 8: know they're coming in after us, and we're I love that,

1802
01:20:12,040 --> 01:20:13,800
Speaker 8: you know you don't want to lose, But I love

1803
01:20:13,880 --> 01:20:16,920
Speaker 8: that our guys are a little ticked off going into

1804
01:20:17,000 --> 01:20:20,479
Speaker 8: this game, like, man, you got you know, this game

1805
01:20:20,560 --> 01:20:23,439
Speaker 8: for first place in the division in our house, like

1806
01:20:23,479 --> 01:20:26,680
Speaker 8: it means everything. So how we show up? What's our

1807
01:20:26,720 --> 01:20:30,000
Speaker 8: attention to detail? Like we we can't come back in

1808
01:20:30,040 --> 01:20:32,320
Speaker 8: here next Monday and talk about oh, if we would have,

1809
01:20:32,760 --> 01:20:34,680
Speaker 8: if we would like, No, we have to get this

1810
01:20:34,880 --> 01:20:37,000
Speaker 8: done right. This is the most important game of our

1811
01:20:37,040 --> 01:20:37,680
Speaker 8: season right now.

1812
01:20:37,880 --> 01:20:40,439
Speaker 2: Put your second game of a division, you know, playing

1813
01:20:40,520 --> 01:20:43,400
Speaker 2: a team in your division. I think last year we

1814
01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:47,920
Speaker 2: played the coltson week what two or something, right, and

1815
01:20:47,920 --> 01:20:51,400
Speaker 2: that's a completely different team. Now it's week one, in

1816
01:20:51,479 --> 01:20:54,479
Speaker 2: week eight, it's a little closer. Can you take a

1817
01:20:54,560 --> 01:20:57,080
Speaker 2: lot out of the first game and try and carry

1818
01:20:57,080 --> 01:20:57,559
Speaker 2: that forward?

1819
01:20:57,640 --> 01:20:58,679
Speaker 1: I mean, you ran for a lot.

1820
01:20:58,760 --> 01:20:59,679
Speaker 7: It doesn't mean you're gonna.

1821
01:20:59,520 --> 01:21:00,000
Speaker 1: Run for a lot of game.

1822
01:21:00,200 --> 01:21:02,200
Speaker 2: But are there some things that you can see carry

1823
01:21:02,200 --> 01:21:03,760
Speaker 2: forward or is it kind of the same thing, like

1824
01:21:03,880 --> 01:21:05,320
Speaker 2: different team after seven weeks.

1825
01:21:05,400 --> 01:21:07,719
Speaker 8: Yeah, there are definitely things I think you carry forward,

1826
01:21:07,880 --> 01:21:10,280
Speaker 8: Like hopefully we can still establish a run.

1827
01:21:10,320 --> 01:21:10,800
Speaker 6: But when you.

1828
01:21:11,360 --> 01:21:13,640
Speaker 8: They know us well, we know them well, so of

1829
01:21:13,640 --> 01:21:17,320
Speaker 8: course they'll try to, you know, put more resources store

1830
01:21:17,360 --> 01:21:20,520
Speaker 8: stop store stopping the run. They have to right and

1831
01:21:20,200 --> 01:21:23,400
Speaker 8: h for us defensively, Like they threw the ball over

1832
01:21:23,439 --> 01:21:25,120
Speaker 8: our head a couple of times, so they have to

1833
01:21:25,120 --> 01:21:27,880
Speaker 8: be looking at that again, like, man, can we get

1834
01:21:27,920 --> 01:21:30,720
Speaker 8: those same plays again? If not, you have to try

1835
01:21:30,760 --> 01:21:33,639
Speaker 8: them right. So we have to be ready to defend

1836
01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:36,639
Speaker 8: those plays. And of course they'll always be wrinkles. Off

1837
01:21:36,640 --> 01:21:38,760
Speaker 8: of what you've shown your opponent. You try to ask

1838
01:21:38,760 --> 01:21:41,040
Speaker 8: some wrinkles to see if you can, you know, hit

1839
01:21:41,120 --> 01:21:43,320
Speaker 8: them another way to try to get some explosive plays.

1840
01:21:43,560 --> 01:21:45,680
Speaker 4: Well, they hope to have Jonathan Taylor back, and you

1841
01:21:45,680 --> 01:21:47,640
Speaker 4: did a pretty good job against him last time, and

1842
01:21:47,720 --> 01:21:49,759
Speaker 4: last year did a really good job against Derek Henry.

1843
01:21:49,800 --> 01:21:52,080
Speaker 4: These are backs in the Texans Division. I know Henry's

1844
01:21:52,080 --> 01:21:54,880
Speaker 4: gone now, but what's the difference between facing a guy

1845
01:21:54,920 --> 01:21:57,080
Speaker 4: like Derek Henry and Jonathan Taylor and maybe some of

1846
01:21:57,080 --> 01:21:58,599
Speaker 4: the other talented backs in the league.

1847
01:21:58,840 --> 01:22:02,080
Speaker 8: Yeah, the different friends. I think with Jonathan Taylor, this

1848
01:22:02,240 --> 01:22:04,360
Speaker 8: guy he can just he can hit it anywhere.

1849
01:22:04,439 --> 01:22:07,960
Speaker 7: Like his speed. He has that home run type speed.

1850
01:22:08,040 --> 01:22:11,040
Speaker 8: And Derrick Henry with him, he was more of a

1851
01:22:11,040 --> 01:22:14,599
Speaker 8: one cut guy, whereas you made him top his feet

1852
01:22:14,600 --> 01:22:16,320
Speaker 8: and you had enough guys at the party. Needs it's

1853
01:22:16,360 --> 01:22:17,800
Speaker 8: going to take at least three guys to get him

1854
01:22:17,800 --> 01:22:20,360
Speaker 8: down big guy, but you can make him kind of

1855
01:22:20,360 --> 01:22:23,360
Speaker 8: stop and start, and you can really finish the play

1856
01:22:23,400 --> 01:22:26,320
Speaker 8: before it gets started. With Jonathan Taylor, his contact balance

1857
01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:28,960
Speaker 8: and he can just take a play front side, cut

1858
01:22:29,000 --> 01:22:31,320
Speaker 8: it all the way back backside, and he has to

1859
01:22:31,400 --> 01:22:34,320
Speaker 8: gas to hit the home run. So we know we'll

1860
01:22:34,320 --> 01:22:36,479
Speaker 8: probably get him back this week, one of their best player,

1861
01:22:36,479 --> 01:22:39,360
Speaker 8: one of the best running backs in the league. Know

1862
01:22:39,479 --> 01:22:41,840
Speaker 8: he's probably be chomping at the bit because he didn't

1863
01:22:41,880 --> 01:22:43,920
Speaker 8: have a good outing versus us the first time. So

1864
01:22:43,960 --> 01:22:46,880
Speaker 8: I know Shane is gonna want to run the ball whatever,

1865
01:22:46,920 --> 01:22:49,880
Speaker 8: if it's Jonathan Taylor, if it's Anthony Richardson, he wants

1866
01:22:49,880 --> 01:22:52,519
Speaker 8: to run the football. So that's gonna be our first

1867
01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:53,880
Speaker 8: key to victory is stopping the run.

1868
01:22:53,960 --> 01:22:56,040
Speaker 2: Coach, I know the focus is on the Colts, but

1869
01:22:56,280 --> 01:22:59,000
Speaker 2: then there's another one with the Jets shortly thereafter, And

1870
01:22:59,040 --> 01:23:02,240
Speaker 2: I asked that because do you how does that change

1871
01:23:02,240 --> 01:23:06,240
Speaker 2: Maybe not the preparation, but just handling guys bodies during

1872
01:23:06,280 --> 01:23:08,559
Speaker 2: practice and making sure that they can play on a

1873
01:23:08,600 --> 01:23:10,640
Speaker 2: Sunday and a Thursday and be at their best in

1874
01:23:10,680 --> 01:23:13,000
Speaker 2: both of us. Do you make any adjustments this week

1875
01:23:13,040 --> 01:23:15,200
Speaker 2: for that or is that more a next week adjustment

1876
01:23:15,439 --> 01:23:16,120
Speaker 2: for that short week.

1877
01:23:16,200 --> 01:23:18,080
Speaker 8: Yeah, for me, it's more of a next week adjustment

1878
01:23:18,160 --> 01:23:20,599
Speaker 8: right now. This week, man, we're all in on the coats,

1879
01:23:20,600 --> 01:23:24,519
Speaker 8: like and we'll deal with Thursday Thursday games, we'll talk

1880
01:23:24,520 --> 01:23:25,479
Speaker 8: about it's a little more.

1881
01:23:25,640 --> 01:23:26,840
Speaker 7: Just can't do much.

1882
01:23:26,840 --> 01:23:29,679
Speaker 8: It's just all about rest, recovery, get as much sleep

1883
01:23:29,720 --> 01:23:32,000
Speaker 8: as possible. Then we'll do a lot of walkthroughs for

1884
01:23:32,080 --> 01:23:34,880
Speaker 8: that game. But this week, man, it's all in on

1885
01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:35,400
Speaker 8: the coats.

1886
01:23:35,720 --> 01:23:38,880
Speaker 4: So does the Joe Flacco video I didn't say tape,

1887
01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:42,400
Speaker 4: I didn't say film. Does that video help you prepare

1888
01:23:42,400 --> 01:23:43,960
Speaker 4: for this one? Do you look at it much? Because

1889
01:23:43,960 --> 01:23:46,400
Speaker 4: they're so different Flacco and Anthony Richardson, and they.

1890
01:23:46,320 --> 01:23:50,200
Speaker 8: Are completely different guys when it comes to the quarterback position. Well,

1891
01:23:50,240 --> 01:23:52,400
Speaker 8: we have to look at that, because that's for me,

1892
01:23:52,479 --> 01:23:54,800
Speaker 8: I'm looking at Shane and the play call and just

1893
01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:57,880
Speaker 8: to see, okay, how did it change when Flacco was

1894
01:23:57,920 --> 01:24:01,320
Speaker 8: in versus Anthony? Just to on those differences, But we

1895
01:24:01,439 --> 01:24:04,519
Speaker 8: have to look at the film or tape video, whatever

1896
01:24:04,560 --> 01:24:05,400
Speaker 8: you want to call it.

1897
01:24:05,760 --> 01:24:07,280
Speaker 7: We have to look at the video.

1898
01:24:07,120 --> 01:24:10,439
Speaker 8: Versus flacoh and just see, Okay, are they going to

1899
01:24:10,520 --> 01:24:12,160
Speaker 8: try to do something? I know they got the ball

1900
01:24:12,240 --> 01:24:15,559
Speaker 8: to downs a lot more their slot receiver who is

1901
01:24:15,600 --> 01:24:17,240
Speaker 8: back who we didn't see the first week, so we

1902
01:24:17,240 --> 01:24:20,800
Speaker 8: will probably see more uses of him, and so well,

1903
01:24:20,840 --> 01:24:23,599
Speaker 8: you have to go back and watch that video, coach.

1904
01:24:23,640 --> 01:24:24,960
Speaker 1: What's Kaelin giving you in the back end?

1905
01:24:25,000 --> 01:24:27,280
Speaker 2: We know he's got the interception, so you see the numbers,

1906
01:24:27,320 --> 01:24:30,679
Speaker 2: But does he I mean he almost I don't.

1907
01:24:30,760 --> 01:24:31,559
Speaker 1: I mean he came so.

1908
01:24:31,560 --> 01:24:34,120
Speaker 2: Close to the other one to Tucker Kraft, which I man,

1909
01:24:34,120 --> 01:24:35,280
Speaker 2: that was a fastball from love.

1910
01:24:35,360 --> 01:24:36,599
Speaker 1: But either way, what's he.

1911
01:24:36,760 --> 01:24:40,160
Speaker 2: Kind of allowing you to do as the play caller

1912
01:24:40,560 --> 01:24:43,040
Speaker 2: with him back there? Is he giving you kind of

1913
01:24:43,080 --> 01:24:45,040
Speaker 2: some different like, Hey, you know what, because we've got

1914
01:24:45,160 --> 01:24:47,360
Speaker 2: him back there, maybe against this look we can do

1915
01:24:47,400 --> 01:24:50,000
Speaker 2: something different because he's back there, He's got so much

1916
01:24:50,000 --> 01:24:50,519
Speaker 2: more range.

1917
01:24:50,600 --> 01:24:51,640
Speaker 3: How's he kind of helping that?

1918
01:24:51,880 --> 01:24:52,240
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1919
01:24:52,280 --> 01:24:55,679
Speaker 8: With Kailin back there and his just his ball skills,

1920
01:24:55,720 --> 01:24:58,639
Speaker 8: it allows I think for our underneath defenders to understand

1921
01:24:58,800 --> 01:25:01,080
Speaker 8: they can play it more aggressive, and that's what I

1922
01:25:01,080 --> 01:25:03,240
Speaker 8: want to see. Our guys do play even more aggressive,

1923
01:25:03,400 --> 01:25:07,519
Speaker 8: like underneath coverage to force the quarterback have to put

1924
01:25:07,520 --> 01:25:09,640
Speaker 8: the ball in there and make a tight throw. And

1925
01:25:09,640 --> 01:25:11,200
Speaker 8: if he tries to make a tight throw and he

1926
01:25:11,320 --> 01:25:14,720
Speaker 8: elevates at any like, Kaitln has that ability to make

1927
01:25:14,800 --> 01:25:18,280
Speaker 8: him pay. So it's a matter of not me per se,

1928
01:25:18,360 --> 01:25:21,840
Speaker 8: but just when we are playing tighter coverage, like be

1929
01:25:22,160 --> 01:25:25,040
Speaker 8: even more aggressive on the lower hip so the ball

1930
01:25:25,120 --> 01:25:26,520
Speaker 8: can be elevated.

1931
01:25:26,840 --> 01:25:28,880
Speaker 4: I know you always want to hold the opponent to zero.

1932
01:25:29,040 --> 01:25:31,680
Speaker 4: But on the defensive line, Coach, you got some good

1933
01:25:31,720 --> 01:25:34,600
Speaker 4: playmaking up there. You had no Mario obviously for the

1934
01:25:34,640 --> 01:25:38,080
Speaker 4: first of four games, but Tim Settle another sack for him.

1935
01:25:38,160 --> 01:25:39,519
Speaker 3: The edge guys doing their thing.

1936
01:25:39,600 --> 01:25:42,000
Speaker 4: You get Deniko's feet wet anyway, get them back into

1937
01:25:42,040 --> 01:25:43,240
Speaker 4: the line of how about the guys.

1938
01:25:43,520 --> 01:25:46,160
Speaker 8: Really plays with the defensive line, and you say Settle.

1939
01:25:46,280 --> 01:25:50,080
Speaker 8: Settle has been man and he's been growing each and

1940
01:25:50,120 --> 01:25:51,040
Speaker 8: each and every week.

1941
01:25:51,120 --> 01:25:52,600
Speaker 7: He's getting so much better.

1942
01:25:52,640 --> 01:25:55,000
Speaker 8: And his effect on the game, like he shows up,

1943
01:25:55,439 --> 01:25:57,400
Speaker 8: he does a really great job. He kind of goes

1944
01:25:57,479 --> 01:26:01,240
Speaker 8: unnoticed when Will and Neil are getting sacks. Typically has

1945
01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:04,240
Speaker 8: been settled in the middle, pressing the pocket right, not

1946
01:26:04,320 --> 01:26:06,800
Speaker 8: allowing the quarterback to step up, and then when his

1947
01:26:06,880 --> 01:26:09,599
Speaker 8: opportunity comes he gets to one on one, he has

1948
01:26:09,720 --> 01:26:12,760
Speaker 8: enough wiggle and what it takes to finish on the quarterback.

1949
01:26:12,840 --> 01:26:16,280
Speaker 8: So Man very pleased with him, Impressed with how much

1950
01:26:16,320 --> 01:26:19,799
Speaker 8: better he's gotten learning our scheme and really he's thriving

1951
01:26:19,840 --> 01:26:22,360
Speaker 8: in our scheme and allowing the guys around him to

1952
01:26:22,360 --> 01:26:22,880
Speaker 8: play better.

1953
01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:24,960
Speaker 1: Coach getting Denico back, I don't know.

1954
01:26:25,160 --> 01:26:27,519
Speaker 2: I don't know how many plays he ended up playing yesterday,

1955
01:26:27,520 --> 01:26:29,960
Speaker 2: but he kind of played like we thought he'd play

1956
01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:32,240
Speaker 2: on the edge and then he'd step inside and rush.

1957
01:26:32,520 --> 01:26:34,720
Speaker 2: Kind of what you see for him going forward. It's

1958
01:26:34,760 --> 01:26:37,360
Speaker 2: the first time playing against this well, former team one,

1959
01:26:37,560 --> 01:26:39,840
Speaker 2: former teams in the AFC South, the Colt. What are

1960
01:26:39,840 --> 01:26:40,639
Speaker 2: you thoughts on Denko?

1961
01:26:41,120 --> 01:26:43,400
Speaker 8: Yeah, Man really happy to have him back. Is we

1962
01:26:43,479 --> 01:26:46,840
Speaker 8: know it takes time to get back. So Deniko missed

1963
01:26:47,040 --> 01:26:49,479
Speaker 8: a lot of time not being here, missed some training

1964
01:26:49,520 --> 01:26:52,400
Speaker 8: camp time as well. It's just just goes to show

1965
01:26:52,479 --> 01:26:55,200
Speaker 8: for everybody you can't just pop up and get back

1966
01:26:55,240 --> 01:26:57,120
Speaker 8: to where he left out of football if you have

1967
01:26:57,200 --> 01:26:59,519
Speaker 8: to build it back up. So it's just for us

1968
01:26:59,560 --> 01:27:02,000
Speaker 8: allowing him that time to build up and get back

1969
01:27:02,000 --> 01:27:05,559
Speaker 8: to Deniko and his playmaking ability. But please with a

1970
01:27:05,560 --> 01:27:07,880
Speaker 8: few snaps he had, he was closed a couple of

1971
01:27:07,920 --> 01:27:09,439
Speaker 8: times on the quarterback.

1972
01:27:09,360 --> 01:27:13,439
Speaker 7: And he knows like man coaches fast out there.

1973
01:27:14,240 --> 01:27:17,519
Speaker 8: Yeah yeah, so yeah, I think the more time he

1974
01:27:17,560 --> 01:27:19,840
Speaker 8: gets on task, we'll see him show up and make

1975
01:27:19,840 --> 01:27:20,439
Speaker 8: plays for us.

1976
01:27:20,439 --> 01:27:22,280
Speaker 4: All Right, We've talked about this from time to time,

1977
01:27:22,320 --> 01:27:25,719
Speaker 4: but I think this helps everybody listening who has people

1978
01:27:25,760 --> 01:27:28,600
Speaker 4: reporting to them, who are bosses themselves, and you have

1979
01:27:28,680 --> 01:27:31,080
Speaker 4: these assistant coaches, and I know you like to have

1980
01:27:31,080 --> 01:27:33,200
Speaker 4: a relationship with all the players, but you can't possibly

1981
01:27:33,240 --> 01:27:35,960
Speaker 4: coach every player individually, so you have to coach the coaches.

1982
01:27:36,080 --> 01:27:39,000
Speaker 4: How does that work coaching your coaches, managing the coaches

1983
01:27:39,240 --> 01:27:41,559
Speaker 4: and letting them do their thing with the position groups

1984
01:27:41,560 --> 01:27:42,200
Speaker 4: that they coach.

1985
01:27:42,520 --> 01:27:44,439
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's a great question, and it takes a lot

1986
01:27:44,479 --> 01:27:47,000
Speaker 8: of a lot of trust, a lot of delegating, like

1987
01:27:47,200 --> 01:27:50,559
Speaker 8: knowing that you know, I'll try to do it all,

1988
01:27:50,720 --> 01:27:53,200
Speaker 8: but I can't, like you burn out. So it's just

1989
01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:55,639
Speaker 8: a lot of I'll give our coaches a lot of leeway,

1990
01:27:55,640 --> 01:27:59,680
Speaker 8: a lot of trust in allowing them to coach their

1991
01:27:59,680 --> 01:28:01,559
Speaker 8: players is up the right way, and I see something

1992
01:28:01,600 --> 01:28:04,360
Speaker 8: that needs to be changed, I go to the coaches first, right,

1993
01:28:04,400 --> 01:28:07,120
Speaker 8: And that's that's where the adage come. Coaching the coaches

1994
01:28:07,320 --> 01:28:09,559
Speaker 8: like and I coach the coach is hard to make

1995
01:28:09,600 --> 01:28:12,160
Speaker 8: sure they coach the players hard. Just so I not

1996
01:28:12,280 --> 01:28:15,400
Speaker 8: let guys know we're all in this together. We're all together,

1997
01:28:15,439 --> 01:28:18,040
Speaker 8: Like I just want it done correctly. Like it's not

1998
01:28:18,080 --> 01:28:21,920
Speaker 8: a matter of me having all the answers or knowing everything.

1999
01:28:21,960 --> 01:28:25,280
Speaker 8: I don't know everything, but man, I just want to

2000
01:28:25,280 --> 01:28:27,559
Speaker 8: get it fixed. Whatever we got to get fixed, let's

2001
01:28:27,560 --> 01:28:30,120
Speaker 8: get it fixed. And you know, for me, when I

2002
01:28:30,160 --> 01:28:32,200
Speaker 8: remember back when I was a position coach, it was

2003
01:28:32,240 --> 01:28:35,120
Speaker 8: just always a position coach took pride in my group,

2004
01:28:35,760 --> 01:28:37,599
Speaker 8: Like I wanted to make sure my group was the

2005
01:28:37,640 --> 01:28:41,240
Speaker 8: best in the NFL. And that's why I want our coaches,

2006
01:28:41,240 --> 01:28:44,000
Speaker 8: our position coaches to feel the same, Like you want

2007
01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:45,760
Speaker 8: to be the best, You want your group to be

2008
01:28:45,800 --> 01:28:47,720
Speaker 8: the best in the league. You want to be the

2009
01:28:47,760 --> 01:28:50,760
Speaker 8: best position coach in the league. Always remind them, like

2010
01:28:50,800 --> 01:28:55,040
Speaker 8: it's only thirty two of these positions. Whatever position coach,

2011
01:28:55,080 --> 01:28:57,280
Speaker 8: you're only you're one of thirty two. So it's a

2012
01:28:57,280 --> 01:29:02,160
Speaker 8: privilege and honor, but it's also urgency to make sure

2013
01:29:02,240 --> 01:29:04,040
Speaker 8: your players are playing the right way.

2014
01:29:04,640 --> 01:29:05,439
Speaker 1: Coach the.

2015
01:29:06,920 --> 01:29:09,240
Speaker 2: You talked about it at your press conference about I'm

2016
01:29:09,240 --> 01:29:09,840
Speaker 2: on of the Colts.

2017
01:29:09,880 --> 01:29:12,080
Speaker 1: I'm on of the Colts already. I mean, that's the

2018
01:29:12,120 --> 01:29:13,639
Speaker 1: epitome of the twenty four hour rule.

2019
01:29:13,880 --> 01:29:15,800
Speaker 2: But how long did it take you, as a player

2020
01:29:15,920 --> 01:29:19,000
Speaker 2: or coach to really get in that mindset of that

2021
01:29:19,080 --> 01:29:22,599
Speaker 2: you can really let that one go and then start going.

2022
01:29:22,400 --> 01:29:24,479
Speaker 8: Forward to the colts. It took a time. It took

2023
01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:27,000
Speaker 8: a long time for me, because those losses hurt.

2024
01:29:27,960 --> 01:29:28,720
Speaker 7: It hurts, man.

2025
01:29:28,760 --> 01:29:33,080
Speaker 8: And what I learned and is, sometimes on those losses

2026
01:29:33,080 --> 01:29:36,920
Speaker 8: and you let them linger into like the Thursday Friday. Now,

2027
01:29:37,000 --> 01:29:40,519
Speaker 8: that affects the next game, right, And that's what I

2028
01:29:40,520 --> 01:29:43,280
Speaker 8: don't want to happen. Right And and I'm telling you guys,

2029
01:29:43,280 --> 01:29:45,840
Speaker 8: being in the league for a while now, I've seen

2030
01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:49,439
Speaker 8: people ride the wave of when you win, you're the

2031
01:29:49,479 --> 01:29:51,960
Speaker 8: best team, you're the hottest team, and no, you're moving

2032
01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:54,599
Speaker 8: up the ranks since the time, like yea, that means

2033
01:29:54,640 --> 01:29:57,920
Speaker 8: nothing like and when you lose, oh my goodness, they

2034
01:29:57,920 --> 01:29:59,920
Speaker 8: stink they're the worst team ever in it.

2035
01:30:00,280 --> 01:30:03,320
Speaker 7: And It's just that that roller coaster.

2036
01:30:03,080 --> 01:30:06,439
Speaker 8: A week to week, whether you win, you lose, win lose,

2037
01:30:06,520 --> 01:30:08,439
Speaker 8: like you're the best, you're the worst. Best is there's

2038
01:30:08,520 --> 01:30:11,639
Speaker 8: never any And so if you ride that wave, man

2039
01:30:11,680 --> 01:30:12,439
Speaker 8: you go crazy.

2040
01:30:12,560 --> 01:30:15,439
Speaker 7: Yeah, pull all my hair out even though it's already gone.

2041
01:30:15,640 --> 01:30:18,320
Speaker 7: But you cannot go crazy trying to ride that way.

2042
01:30:18,400 --> 01:30:21,400
Speaker 8: So that's forced me of just to say, hey, man,

2043
01:30:21,520 --> 01:30:25,679
Speaker 8: just stay even kelled, come twenty four hour rule, learn

2044
01:30:25,720 --> 01:30:27,519
Speaker 8: from it, and move on to the next opponent.

2045
01:30:27,600 --> 01:30:29,559
Speaker 4: But we know you want that game day energy with

2046
01:30:29,640 --> 01:30:32,280
Speaker 4: your players. You want them to be enthusiastic. There were

2047
01:30:32,320 --> 01:30:36,120
Speaker 4: some spirited conversations that appeared between the Texans and the Packers.

2048
01:30:36,320 --> 01:30:38,280
Speaker 4: What about that part of it? You want them to

2049
01:30:38,320 --> 01:30:40,439
Speaker 4: be intense and into it, But.

2050
01:30:41,040 --> 01:30:42,559
Speaker 3: How do you draw the line there? How do you

2051
01:30:42,600 --> 01:30:43,200
Speaker 3: regulate that?

2052
01:30:43,320 --> 01:30:43,599
Speaker 5: Coach?

2053
01:30:43,720 --> 01:30:45,800
Speaker 8: Yeah, for me, I told our guys, it's like you're

2054
01:30:45,840 --> 01:30:49,040
Speaker 8: wasting energy, like and I don't like wasted energy, Like

2055
01:30:49,080 --> 01:30:52,720
Speaker 8: when we're we're chirping after the play or before the game,

2056
01:30:52,800 --> 01:30:56,000
Speaker 8: we're getting into it with the opponent, Like, how does

2057
01:30:56,040 --> 01:30:58,840
Speaker 8: that help you? Like, I want all of that energy

2058
01:30:58,880 --> 01:31:01,920
Speaker 8: that you have to after a play, how about putting

2059
01:31:01,920 --> 01:31:04,160
Speaker 8: that into some more energy and effort to finish a

2060
01:31:04,160 --> 01:31:07,400
Speaker 8: block or to finish on a catch, like that's where

2061
01:31:07,400 --> 01:31:11,280
Speaker 8: I want the energy going. Like it's wasted energy. It

2062
01:31:11,320 --> 01:31:15,040
Speaker 8: has nothing to do with the game, and it really

2063
01:31:15,240 --> 01:31:18,840
Speaker 8: pulls your focus away from your job. And that's why

2064
01:31:18,880 --> 01:31:21,040
Speaker 8: I don't like all the bickering and back and forth,

2065
01:31:21,080 --> 01:31:24,280
Speaker 8: like I want guys focus on us, and there I

2066
01:31:24,320 --> 01:31:26,800
Speaker 8: felt like versus the Packers, I did feel like we

2067
01:31:26,880 --> 01:31:29,800
Speaker 8: got a little too chirpy, little too chatty, pushing after

2068
01:31:29,880 --> 01:31:32,559
Speaker 8: the plays, but we weren't doing what we need to

2069
01:31:32,560 --> 01:31:35,120
Speaker 8: do within the play. And that's where I have a problem.

2070
01:31:35,280 --> 01:31:37,640
Speaker 2: Couch for the lost time during regular season, two in

2071
01:31:37,640 --> 01:31:39,320
Speaker 2: a row on the road, those are behind us.

2072
01:31:39,360 --> 01:31:39,639
Speaker 7: All good?

2073
01:31:39,720 --> 01:31:41,320
Speaker 3: Is it to be coming back home for Sunday?

2074
01:31:41,960 --> 01:31:42,200
Speaker 7: Man?

2075
01:31:42,320 --> 01:31:45,439
Speaker 8: Great to be home when we're excited, excited to be

2076
01:31:45,520 --> 01:31:47,519
Speaker 8: home in front of our home crowd, feel like it's

2077
01:31:47,520 --> 01:31:49,920
Speaker 8: been it's been a long time. Yeah, so man, we're

2078
01:31:49,960 --> 01:31:52,240
Speaker 8: excited to feel that energy from our crowd and we

2079
01:31:52,360 --> 01:31:55,120
Speaker 8: need it like this game, big game this week. We

2080
01:31:55,200 --> 01:31:58,200
Speaker 8: need an energy just like when we've been on the road,

2081
01:31:58,280 --> 01:32:02,160
Speaker 8: and you know Minnesota and in Green Bay, their fans

2082
01:32:02,200 --> 01:32:05,000
Speaker 8: have affected the game by being loud on third down

2083
01:32:05,160 --> 01:32:08,080
Speaker 8: and causing you know, communication issues for us.

2084
01:32:08,120 --> 01:32:11,840
Speaker 7: So Houston, can we get some loud No, it's on

2085
01:32:12,000 --> 01:32:13,880
Speaker 7: third down to affect.

2086
01:32:13,479 --> 01:32:15,920
Speaker 8: Our opponent, like we need it more so than ever

2087
01:32:15,960 --> 01:32:16,719
Speaker 8: we needed this.

2088
01:32:16,640 --> 01:32:17,439
Speaker 5: Week, all right.

2089
01:32:17,479 --> 01:32:20,559
Speaker 4: The Amity Bank asked coach question of the week. It's

2090
01:32:20,600 --> 01:32:22,760
Speaker 4: Andre Johnson Day on Sunday, he gets his Hall of

2091
01:32:22,800 --> 01:32:26,400
Speaker 4: Fame ring. So do you have a favorite Andre Johnson moment?

2092
01:32:26,439 --> 01:32:27,800
Speaker 4: I don't know if we've asked you this. You have

2093
01:32:27,840 --> 01:32:30,200
Speaker 4: a personal fame because you played with him, So does

2094
01:32:30,240 --> 01:32:31,479
Speaker 4: anything stand out to you?

2095
01:32:33,680 --> 01:32:34,120
Speaker 3: Washington?

2096
01:32:34,720 --> 01:32:38,360
Speaker 8: Yeah, Washington, definitely Washington over to that game there for

2097
01:32:38,439 --> 01:32:39,400
Speaker 8: him to close it out.

2098
01:32:40,680 --> 01:32:45,679
Speaker 7: Of course, Courtland Finnegan, even.

2099
01:32:45,520 --> 01:32:48,559
Speaker 3: The coach says it, Yeah, that one always thinks out.

2100
01:32:48,600 --> 01:32:50,000
Speaker 7: Sometimes you just gotta let him know.

2101
01:32:50,120 --> 01:32:53,960
Speaker 8: But man, Dre is there's so many special why just

2102
01:32:54,320 --> 01:32:58,600
Speaker 8: just sitting on the sideline and just watching him perform,

2103
01:32:58,680 --> 01:33:02,040
Speaker 8: like game after game and no slight to end in

2104
01:33:02,080 --> 01:33:05,200
Speaker 8: my former teammates, but when Dre was the best person

2105
01:33:05,240 --> 01:33:07,720
Speaker 8: on the field, the best receiver, and everybody knew the

2106
01:33:07,760 --> 01:33:10,719
Speaker 8: ball was going to him, and Dre is like triple

2107
01:33:10,760 --> 01:33:13,439
Speaker 8: covered and we're still throwing the ball to him and

2108
01:33:13,439 --> 01:33:15,000
Speaker 8: he still comes down with the.

2109
01:33:14,920 --> 01:33:16,479
Speaker 7: Ball time and time again.

2110
01:33:17,040 --> 01:33:20,000
Speaker 8: It's just one of the best players I've ever had

2111
01:33:20,000 --> 01:33:24,479
Speaker 8: the chance to play with. And I'm so happy for

2112
01:33:24,560 --> 01:33:28,320
Speaker 8: him in his Hall of Fame status Now, he's definitely

2113
01:33:28,880 --> 01:33:32,599
Speaker 8: like and he's definitely big time right and he deserves it. Man,

2114
01:33:32,720 --> 01:33:34,680
Speaker 8: Just why in another moment for Dre. For me is

2115
01:33:35,360 --> 01:33:37,479
Speaker 8: like as a young player coming into the league, like

2116
01:33:37,680 --> 01:33:42,680
Speaker 8: watching how guys practiced, Like for me, watching how Andre practiced,

2117
01:33:42,720 --> 01:33:45,760
Speaker 8: like he practiced so hard and I hardly ever seen

2118
01:33:45,800 --> 01:33:48,680
Speaker 8: him drop a football in practice, And that's one thing

2119
01:33:48,720 --> 01:33:50,800
Speaker 8: that stood out to me, Like he practiced that way

2120
01:33:51,280 --> 01:33:55,120
Speaker 8: and it showed up on Sunday that way. So it

2121
01:33:55,240 --> 01:33:59,240
Speaker 8: was a pleasure of being his teammate, being his friend,

2122
01:33:59,400 --> 01:34:02,720
Speaker 8: and just seeing the effect that he had on the

2123
01:34:02,760 --> 01:34:04,000
Speaker 8: team on the community.

2124
01:34:04,080 --> 01:34:07,320
Speaker 7: When we were great as the Texans, Dre was always

2125
01:34:07,320 --> 01:34:08,320
Speaker 7: that Bryce spot for us.

2126
01:34:08,439 --> 01:34:10,759
Speaker 3: Out standing coach. Thanks all, good luck to see you guys.

2127
01:34:11,080 --> 01:34:13,639
Speaker 2: Summed it up great there about Andre Johnson, who will

2128
01:34:13,680 --> 01:34:16,800
Speaker 2: get his Hall of Fame ring on Sunday as we

2129
01:34:16,960 --> 01:34:21,280
Speaker 2: celebrate the goat for the Texans. Andre Johnson number three,

2130
01:34:21,520 --> 01:34:24,240
Speaker 2: seventy five, that's his enshrinement number in the Hall of

2131
01:34:24,280 --> 01:34:27,720
Speaker 2: Fame three hundred seventy five. So few guys here in

2132
01:34:27,840 --> 01:34:30,479
Speaker 2: four hundred that have played this game have gone into

2133
01:34:30,520 --> 01:34:34,120
Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame, but Andre Johnson is one of them.

2134
01:34:34,360 --> 01:34:37,120

2144
01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:01,320
Speaker 2: I think I might get fined for that.

2145
01:35:01,360 --> 01:35:03,679
Speaker 1: But be the problem for the Colts.

2146
01:35:03,720 --> 01:35:07,639
Speaker 2: Make Anthony Richardson have the strain to talk to his guys.

2147
01:35:08,240 --> 01:35:10,400
Speaker 2: I know you will be, and I know it would

2148
01:35:10,439 --> 01:35:12,320
Speaker 2: be raucous, and I know it would be a great

2149
01:35:12,360 --> 01:35:15,120

2152
01:35:23,320 --> 01:35:26,479
Speaker 4: edition of Friday Night Texans All Access where we feature

2153
01:35:26,520 --> 01:35:30,040
Speaker 4: some of the best content of the week. And sometimes

2154
01:35:30,080 --> 01:35:32,040
Speaker 4: I've wanted to call this the Witching Hour, but I

2155
01:35:32,040 --> 01:35:34,960
Speaker 4: think Scott Hansen of Red Zone has that trademarch for

2156
01:35:35,040 --> 01:35:37,320
Speaker 4: Sunday afternoons when the games go into the fourth quarter

2157
01:35:37,720 --> 01:35:41,000
Speaker 4: or crunch time, and I'm thinking, don't let this one

2158
01:35:41,080 --> 01:35:44,120
Speaker 4: get into crunch time. Have a two score win. Can

2159
01:35:44,120 --> 01:35:46,720
Speaker 4: we please do that against the Colts. The Texans have

2160
01:35:46,760 --> 01:35:49,200
Speaker 4: not beatn the Colts at NRG. As we've said many

2161
01:35:49,200 --> 01:35:52,679
Speaker 4: times this week since twenty nineteen. Let's get it done,

2162
01:35:52,680 --> 01:35:54,759
Speaker 4: and let's get it done in a big way if possible.

2163
01:35:54,760 --> 01:35:56,200
Speaker 4: But I'll take a one point win. I'll take a

2164
01:35:56,200 --> 01:35:58,760
Speaker 4: two to nothing victory. It doesn't matter. Get to six

2165
01:35:58,800 --> 01:36:01,639
Speaker 4: and two somehow and a very short week of waits

2166
01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:04,080
Speaker 4: before the Texans take on the New York Jets. So

2167
01:36:04,160 --> 01:36:08,160
Speaker 4: let's start here with Nick Cassario, General Manager and Executive

2168
01:36:08,200 --> 01:36:11,360
Speaker 4: Vice president. We will hit on the routine, some of

2169
01:36:11,400 --> 01:36:15,559
Speaker 4: it anyway, going into next week's short week before traveling

2170
01:36:15,560 --> 01:36:17,080
Speaker 4: to New York to play the Jets, because we can

2171
01:36:17,120 --> 01:36:19,479
Speaker 4: look ahead a little bit with the GM and exec

2172
01:36:19,600 --> 01:36:22,639
Speaker 4: VP as far as the procedural stuff goes.

2173
01:36:22,720 --> 01:36:24,920
Speaker 3: We wouldn't do this with the head coach. No, no, no, no.

2174
01:36:25,200 --> 01:36:28,240
Speaker 4: So here's our conversation with Nick, and we started off

2175
01:36:28,280 --> 01:36:31,479
Speaker 4: talking about some of the good, the bad, the things

2176
01:36:31,520 --> 01:36:35,080
Speaker 4: that happen against green Bay. Pass protection and issue running

2177
01:36:35,080 --> 01:36:38,920
Speaker 4: game really clicking defensively, the takeaway train was rolling.

2178
01:36:39,120 --> 01:36:41,320
Speaker 2: Nick, let's talk about those two things. Kind of they're

2179
01:36:41,320 --> 01:36:43,439
Speaker 2: good in the bad of it. Run game really good.

2180
01:36:43,640 --> 01:36:47,519
Speaker 2: I mean, Joe had a number of seams, two touchdown runs,

2181
01:36:47,640 --> 01:36:49,840
Speaker 2: really well blocked. Tight ends did a nice job. Pass

2182
01:36:49,920 --> 01:36:52,360
Speaker 2: protection not as great. Kind of how you break down

2183
01:36:52,400 --> 01:36:54,479
Speaker 2: those two and how do you? I know, it's tough.

2184
01:36:54,479 --> 01:36:56,200
Speaker 2: You're not always going to have them both at the

2185
01:36:56,240 --> 01:36:58,280
Speaker 2: same point, whether they're both bad or both good. But

2186
01:36:58,560 --> 01:37:00,560
Speaker 2: the way that the pass protection was versus where the

2187
01:37:00,600 --> 01:37:02,960
Speaker 2: run blocking was, it was like really good, not so good.

2188
01:37:03,040 --> 01:37:05,000
Speaker 2: How do you kind of, I don't know, how do

2189
01:37:05,000 --> 01:37:05,439
Speaker 2: you look at that?

2190
01:37:05,520 --> 01:37:07,120
Speaker 13: Yeah, sure you did. You really have to look at everything.

2191
01:37:07,160 --> 01:37:08,840
Speaker 13: But when you look at it, any end of passing

2192
01:37:08,880 --> 01:37:10,519
Speaker 13: game is about third down. So it goes back to

2193
01:37:10,560 --> 01:37:13,200
Speaker 13: situational football. So our ability to kind of exec execute

2194
01:37:13,320 --> 01:37:16,360
Speaker 13: situationally in those third down situations. They did a good

2195
01:37:16,439 --> 01:37:19,439
Speaker 13: job stressing some things. We had some errors on our

2196
01:37:19,560 --> 01:37:22,800
Speaker 13: end that are easily fixable and correctable. So there's gonna

2197
01:37:22,840 --> 01:37:24,240
Speaker 13: be some things that pop up during the course of

2198
01:37:24,240 --> 01:37:26,040
Speaker 13: the game and I have to get them fixed. That's

2199
01:37:26,080 --> 01:37:27,840
Speaker 13: part of a job. Go back after the game, look

2200
01:37:27,840 --> 01:37:29,000
Speaker 13: what do we do well, what are some of the

2201
01:37:29,080 --> 01:37:31,639
Speaker 13: errors we can improve? We make some modifications and adjustment

2202
01:37:32,040 --> 01:37:34,760
Speaker 13: and then figure out like what we can carry for

2203
01:37:34,800 --> 01:37:36,280
Speaker 13: the next week, and then what are some things that

2204
01:37:36,280 --> 01:37:38,320
Speaker 13: we're going to do different that are specific to the opponent,

2205
01:37:38,479 --> 01:37:39,759
Speaker 13: which in this case will be the Cults.

2206
01:37:40,000 --> 01:37:41,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, because when you run the ball as well as

2207
01:37:41,880 --> 01:37:44,120
Speaker 4: you did, you'd think play action and those things would

2208
01:37:44,200 --> 01:37:46,559
Speaker 4: go really well. But it didn't go as well as

2209
01:37:46,560 --> 01:37:47,719
Speaker 4: you wanted to throw in the football.

2210
01:37:47,680 --> 01:37:49,360
Speaker 13: It just never really got into probably as good of

2211
01:37:49,400 --> 01:37:51,799
Speaker 13: a rhythm as we would have hoped so had our moments.

2212
01:37:52,000 --> 01:37:54,640
Speaker 13: Had some chunk plays there, completing the Schultz earlier in

2213
01:37:54,640 --> 01:37:57,240
Speaker 13: a game on the over route. So it was kind

2214
01:37:57,240 --> 01:38:00,760
Speaker 13: of sporadic, but any instill had an opportunity to win

2215
01:38:00,800 --> 01:38:02,880
Speaker 13: the football game. Didn't turn the ball over, which is

2216
01:38:02,920 --> 01:38:05,240
Speaker 13: always a good thing, and they possessing the ball was

2217
01:38:05,280 --> 01:38:06,439
Speaker 13: one of the focal points for us.

2218
01:38:06,439 --> 01:38:08,040
Speaker 14: Offensively, so we're able to do that.

2219
01:38:08,479 --> 01:38:11,640
Speaker 13: It really all these games, and we've talked really religiously

2220
01:38:11,680 --> 01:38:14,040
Speaker 13: on this show, come down to situational plays to cut

2221
01:38:14,040 --> 01:38:15,600
Speaker 13: down a third area. Third down come down to the

2222
01:38:15,680 --> 01:38:18,040
Speaker 13: red area, right, and then the whole turnover situation. So

2223
01:38:18,360 --> 01:38:21,120
Speaker 13: when you look at that game, green Bay converted in

2224
01:38:21,160 --> 01:38:23,280
Speaker 13: a red area, We had the two stops in the

2225
01:38:23,360 --> 01:38:25,719
Speaker 13: red area, and then third down was about a wash

2226
01:38:25,840 --> 01:38:27,720
Speaker 13: with the advantage in the takeaways, and then it came

2227
01:38:27,760 --> 01:38:29,640
Speaker 13: down to really a situational play at the end. So

2228
01:38:29,960 --> 01:38:32,240
Speaker 13: that's football you look around the league, that's what it is.

2229
01:38:32,560 --> 01:38:34,200
Speaker 13: When we talk about the Colts, when you look at

2230
01:38:34,240 --> 01:38:37,120
Speaker 13: their season, every game has been a one score game.

2231
01:38:37,240 --> 01:38:38,920
Speaker 14: So that's what this leads about.

2232
01:38:39,200 --> 01:38:41,680
Speaker 4: How important is it for everybody in the organization to

2233
01:38:41,720 --> 01:38:44,920
Speaker 4: look at those positive things and continue to do those

2234
01:38:45,080 --> 01:38:47,240
Speaker 4: yet correct the things that need to be corrected, and

2235
01:38:47,280 --> 01:38:49,760
Speaker 4: not beat yourselves up too much, knowing that, hey, you're

2236
01:38:49,800 --> 01:38:52,360
Speaker 4: five and two and it's a huge opportunity on Sunday.

2237
01:38:52,400 --> 01:38:55,439
Speaker 13: If there's always a natural inclination either way you win,

2238
01:38:55,640 --> 01:38:57,559
Speaker 13: feel a certain way, you lose, you feel a certain

2239
01:38:57,600 --> 01:39:00,680
Speaker 13: way in the end. In some respects, there are a

2240
01:39:00,720 --> 01:39:03,920
Speaker 13: lot of similarities. So you just maybe your outlook, maybe

2241
01:39:03,920 --> 01:39:06,360
Speaker 13: your mindset a little bit more jovial when you walk.

2242
01:39:06,200 --> 01:39:06,759
Speaker 14: In the building.

2243
01:39:07,000 --> 01:39:09,559
Speaker 13: But by and large, look, one team's gonna win, one

2244
01:39:09,560 --> 01:39:11,640
Speaker 13: team's gonna lose. It happens every week. Got to come

2245
01:39:11,640 --> 01:39:14,120
Speaker 13: in with the right mindset, have a very I would

2246
01:39:14,200 --> 01:39:19,200
Speaker 13: say intent, be intent, be purposeful, and have a good outlook,

2247
01:39:19,240 --> 01:39:22,160
Speaker 13: and have a good process, and just be honest with

2248
01:39:22,200 --> 01:39:24,519
Speaker 13: ourselves and realize.

2249
01:39:24,439 --> 01:39:25,240
Speaker 14: The sun came up.

2250
01:39:25,520 --> 01:39:28,360
Speaker 13: So yeah, we should all be excited to be here

2251
01:39:28,479 --> 01:39:29,840
Speaker 13: and try to get back to work and try to

2252
01:39:29,840 --> 01:39:31,400
Speaker 13: improve and just try to get ready for the next

2253
01:39:31,400 --> 01:39:32,240
Speaker 13: opponent or.

2254
01:39:32,200 --> 01:39:32,960
Speaker 1: Five and two.

2255
01:39:33,200 --> 01:39:34,760
Speaker 2: And there have been years we've been sitting at this

2256
01:39:34,800 --> 01:39:37,439
Speaker 2: table we've not been five and two. So looking it

2257
01:39:37,479 --> 01:39:40,240
Speaker 2: from that perspective as well, you know, I'm obligated to

2258
01:39:40,280 --> 01:39:42,200
Speaker 2: ask you about a rookie of the draft or something

2259
01:39:42,240 --> 01:39:45,360
Speaker 2: along those lines. I'm asking you Aboutkaylyn Bullock. And I

2260
01:39:45,400 --> 01:39:49,439
Speaker 2: asked this Dimika did the day of what does the

2261
01:39:49,439 --> 01:39:52,080
Speaker 2: presence of Bullock, just his range in the middle of

2262
01:39:52,120 --> 01:39:53,960
Speaker 2: the field, how does that change.

2263
01:39:53,640 --> 01:39:54,479
Speaker 3: Things for him?

2264
01:39:54,520 --> 01:39:56,080
Speaker 2: And he said not as much for him calling plays,

2265
01:39:56,080 --> 01:39:58,280
Speaker 2: but he said for the other defenders. Knowing, hey, look,

2266
01:39:58,280 --> 01:40:00,519
Speaker 2: if we're sticking in coverage, we know the balls be floating.

2267
01:40:00,560 --> 01:40:03,320
Speaker 2: He's gonna go get it. When you guys were scouting, Kaylin,

2268
01:40:03,880 --> 01:40:06,040
Speaker 2: those are things that you focused in on more than

2269
01:40:06,080 --> 01:40:08,200
Speaker 2: anything else. What did you kind of see that you

2270
01:40:08,240 --> 01:40:11,080
Speaker 2: thought would translate to him having some success early in

2271
01:40:11,080 --> 01:40:11,920
Speaker 2: his rookie campaign.

2272
01:40:12,080 --> 01:40:13,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was.

2273
01:40:13,200 --> 01:40:15,599
Speaker 13: We felt he was kind of a uniquely skilled player.

2274
01:40:15,680 --> 01:40:18,479
Speaker 13: So almost six three, one hundred and ninety pounds runs well,

2275
01:40:18,600 --> 01:40:20,840
Speaker 13: covers a lot of ground. Started his career as a

2276
01:40:20,840 --> 01:40:24,559
Speaker 13: corner and kind of transitioned there to safety, had really

2277
01:40:24,640 --> 01:40:27,640
Speaker 13: played since his freshman year, and he showed the propensity

2278
01:40:27,680 --> 01:40:30,680
Speaker 13: to get his hands on the football at usc regardless

2279
01:40:30,680 --> 01:40:32,880
Speaker 13: of the year. So anytime a player gets his hands

2280
01:40:32,920 --> 01:40:35,680
Speaker 13: in the football or as involved, it leads you to

2281
01:40:35,720 --> 01:40:38,200
Speaker 13: believe he has some level of wareness, some level of instincts,

2282
01:40:38,200 --> 01:40:40,120
Speaker 13: and a certain level of skill that goes along with it.

2283
01:40:40,200 --> 01:40:43,559
Speaker 13: So we just felt the overall composition of his skills

2284
01:40:44,000 --> 01:40:46,439
Speaker 13: fit with our group and would compliment it very well.

2285
01:40:46,720 --> 01:40:49,679
Speaker 13: And even though he's a younger player, he's pretty mature.

2286
01:40:50,240 --> 01:40:52,519
Speaker 13: He goes about his work with the right mindset. I'd

2287
01:40:52,560 --> 01:40:54,400
Speaker 13: say steven A has done a really good job working

2288
01:40:54,439 --> 01:40:56,200
Speaker 13: with him and kind of getting him ready to play,

2289
01:40:56,520 --> 01:40:58,559
Speaker 13: and then when he's gone on the field, he's taken

2290
01:40:58,600 --> 01:41:01,720
Speaker 13: advantage of his opportunities. So when a player does that,

2291
01:41:01,960 --> 01:41:04,599
Speaker 13: then your teammates around you can realize, hey, we can

2292
01:41:04,600 --> 01:41:06,559
Speaker 13: count on that guy to hopefully do the right thing

2293
01:41:06,800 --> 01:41:10,000
Speaker 13: on a consistent basis, and then he has production behind it.

2294
01:41:10,080 --> 01:41:11,519
Speaker 13: And I don't know, he's near the top of the

2295
01:41:11,560 --> 01:41:14,680
Speaker 13: league and interceptions or as rookies. He's probably one of

2296
01:41:14,680 --> 01:41:16,519
Speaker 13: the top rookies in terms of taking the ball away.

2297
01:41:16,560 --> 01:41:19,280
Speaker 13: So he's certainly made progress from where he started to

2298
01:41:19,280 --> 01:41:21,559
Speaker 13: where he is now. So we're only five games into

2299
01:41:21,560 --> 01:41:24,240
Speaker 13: his seven games into his career, whatever it is, he

2300
01:41:24,320 --> 01:41:26,759
Speaker 13: certainly has room for improvement. But he's made an impact

2301
01:41:26,760 --> 01:41:28,360
Speaker 13: when he's been on the field and it certainly helped

2302
01:41:28,360 --> 01:41:29,519
Speaker 13: our team and helped the defense.

2303
01:41:29,720 --> 01:41:32,200
Speaker 4: Your defense is second in the league in total yards

2304
01:41:32,280 --> 01:41:34,760
Speaker 4: and you go into that game Thinn at linebacker, Jake

2305
01:41:34,800 --> 01:41:37,320
Speaker 4: Hampton and Neville Hewitt. These are special teams demons. But

2306
01:41:37,360 --> 01:41:39,240
Speaker 4: we talked about Neville a little bit last week. He

2307
01:41:39,280 --> 01:41:41,760
Speaker 4: can tackle people and so can Jake. By the way,

2308
01:41:41,880 --> 01:41:44,639
Speaker 4: can you talk about those two, especially Jake acquiring him

2309
01:41:44,920 --> 01:41:46,840
Speaker 4: love he had him in college. Did you talk to

2310
01:41:46,880 --> 01:41:49,040
Speaker 4: Lovey at all about how Jake was in college when

2311
01:41:49,040 --> 01:41:49,880
Speaker 4: you evaluated him.

2312
01:41:49,920 --> 01:41:52,680
Speaker 13: Yeah, I really can't say enough great things about those

2313
01:41:52,720 --> 01:41:54,920
Speaker 13: two players on Sunday. I mean, they were prepared, they

2314
01:41:54,920 --> 01:41:57,160
Speaker 13: were ready to go. They showed up and they produced.

2315
01:41:57,160 --> 01:41:59,240
Speaker 13: I mean Nevill let us in tackles. I think Jake

2316
01:41:59,280 --> 01:42:01,599
Speaker 13: was second or third tackles. So when you go back

2317
01:42:01,600 --> 01:42:03,800
Speaker 13: and look at the ark of Jake's career at Illinois,

2318
01:42:04,120 --> 01:42:06,720
Speaker 13: the biggest bugaboo was the durability.

2319
01:42:06,280 --> 01:42:06,719
Speaker 5: The injuries.

2320
01:42:06,760 --> 01:42:08,360
Speaker 14: So that's the thing that kind of set them back.

2321
01:42:08,400 --> 01:42:10,720
Speaker 14: But very well thought of, highly well thought of.

2322
01:42:10,800 --> 01:42:14,200
Speaker 13: We actually took him even though he wasn't quite ready

2323
01:42:14,200 --> 01:42:16,439
Speaker 13: to play, but because of the person that he was.

2324
01:42:16,479 --> 01:42:19,160
Speaker 13: We had those conversations with Lovey, he thought very highly

2325
01:42:19,200 --> 01:42:22,720
Speaker 13: of him, just the overall person, his intelligence, his instinctiveness,

2326
01:42:23,080 --> 01:42:25,559
Speaker 13: and since he's been here, those have all kind of

2327
01:42:25,560 --> 01:42:28,200
Speaker 13: come to fruition and manifest themselves. So a lot of

2328
01:42:28,240 --> 01:42:30,519
Speaker 13: credit to Jake and Neville for the way that you prepare.

2329
01:42:30,520 --> 01:42:33,160
Speaker 13: They're very professional, and that's a good example of a

2330
01:42:33,160 --> 01:42:35,640
Speaker 13: player being ready to take advantage of their opportunity when

2331
01:42:35,640 --> 01:42:38,439
Speaker 13: they're called upon. Understanding you really don't know when that's

2332
01:42:38,479 --> 01:42:40,559
Speaker 13: going to take place. Understanding you're going to have a

2333
01:42:40,640 --> 01:42:44,519
Speaker 13: role each game day on fourth down, which when you

2334
01:42:44,520 --> 01:42:45,960
Speaker 13: get to the game on fourth down, that's going to

2335
01:42:45,960 --> 01:42:48,360
Speaker 13: give you an opportunity to maybe play offensively or defensively.

2336
01:42:48,439 --> 01:42:50,880
Speaker 13: So a credit to those players, Credit to Billy Davis

2337
01:42:50,880 --> 01:42:52,519
Speaker 13: and Ben Bowling for the work that they did to

2338
01:42:52,560 --> 01:42:53,760
Speaker 13: get those to get them ready to go.

2339
01:42:53,920 --> 01:42:55,920
Speaker 2: Okay, most of the time, if not all the time

2340
01:42:55,960 --> 01:42:57,439
Speaker 2: that you've been on this show, when we ask you

2341
01:42:57,439 --> 01:42:59,280
Speaker 2: a question, we kind of have some idea of what

2342
01:42:59,320 --> 01:43:01,840
Speaker 2: you're going to say. I don't know the answer to

2343
01:43:01,880 --> 01:43:04,479
Speaker 2: this one at all, but we were totally confused.

2344
01:43:04,560 --> 01:43:05,200
Speaker 5: During the game.

2345
01:43:05,880 --> 01:43:11,200
Speaker 2: There was that fifteen yard penalty for unsportsmanlike on the

2346
01:43:11,240 --> 01:43:16,920
Speaker 2: Packers on the extra point, and we went to Kymie

2347
01:43:16,920 --> 01:43:19,360
Speaker 2: moves up fifteen yards, but he kicked the ball at

2348
01:43:19,400 --> 01:43:21,960
Speaker 2: a bounds and the ball go to the forty.

2349
01:43:22,120 --> 01:43:25,439
Speaker 3: The ball went to the twenty five double fifteen yards.

2350
01:43:25,560 --> 01:43:28,559
Speaker 13: One of these nuances of the rules, so other than

2351
01:43:28,640 --> 01:43:31,760
Speaker 13: honestly that's the way they kind of set the rule up.

2352
01:43:31,840 --> 01:43:35,639
Speaker 13: So there's a tweaking a nuance because of the dynamic

2353
01:43:35,720 --> 01:43:36,320
Speaker 13: kickoff rules.

2354
01:43:36,400 --> 01:43:38,000
Speaker 14: Yeah, so I'll kind of leave it there.

2355
01:43:38,040 --> 01:43:39,879
Speaker 3: So it's a two for a look opportunity.

2356
01:43:39,880 --> 01:43:42,040
Speaker 14: It's kind of a nuance of his situations.

2357
01:43:42,120 --> 01:43:44,240
Speaker 13: Okay, I'm sure you weren't the only one that probably

2358
01:43:44,280 --> 01:43:46,559
Speaker 13: wasn't wondering what the hell is going right?

2359
01:43:47,240 --> 01:43:49,360
Speaker 3: We were confused. We were talking about it because he

2360
01:43:49,400 --> 01:43:49,960
Speaker 3: kicked it out of it.

2361
01:43:50,080 --> 01:43:52,080
Speaker 13: We talked about it so we knew, hey, look, we're

2362
01:43:52,080 --> 01:43:54,360
Speaker 13: going to try maybe try to situationally handle this kick

2363
01:43:54,400 --> 01:43:56,599
Speaker 13: and if it goes out of bounds, then they'll get.

2364
01:43:56,439 --> 01:43:58,280
Speaker 14: The ball there. Oh, I see, So there was a

2365
01:43:58,280 --> 01:43:58,960
Speaker 14: little bit of spread.

2366
01:43:59,040 --> 01:44:01,360
Speaker 2: We were kind of close to that reasoning afterwards, like

2367
01:44:01,439 --> 01:44:04,040
Speaker 2: maybe it wasn't on purpose, but they didn't because of

2368
01:44:04,040 --> 01:44:06,439
Speaker 2: the penalty. There was probably something that said if they

2369
01:44:06,520 --> 01:44:07,800
Speaker 2: kicked on a bounds, it wouldn't.

2370
01:44:07,520 --> 01:44:08,120
Speaker 1: Hurt him that much.

2371
01:44:08,160 --> 01:44:11,200
Speaker 2: So it was that was an odd point of the game,

2372
01:44:11,600 --> 01:44:13,080
Speaker 2: like try to figure that whole thing out.

2373
01:44:13,080 --> 01:44:15,320
Speaker 1: Why is the ball to twenty five? It's odd, but it.

2374
01:44:15,479 --> 01:44:16,280
Speaker 14: Was what actually happens.

2375
01:44:16,280 --> 01:44:18,679
Speaker 4: Again, you did get some good special teams play though

2376
01:44:18,760 --> 01:44:21,080
Speaker 4: on Sunday, and that's something that I know you hang

2377
01:44:21,160 --> 01:44:23,320
Speaker 4: your hat on. You want that to be solid week

2378
01:44:23,360 --> 01:44:23,800
Speaker 4: to week.

2379
01:44:24,120 --> 01:44:25,920
Speaker 13: It's a huge part of the game each week. So

2380
01:44:26,080 --> 01:44:28,240
Speaker 13: let me say, Tommy probably had one of his better weeks.

2381
01:44:28,280 --> 01:44:30,160
Speaker 13: So Tommy's you know, had his Moment's been a little

2382
01:44:30,160 --> 01:44:31,439
Speaker 13: bit up and down, but had a really good week

2383
01:44:31,439 --> 01:44:33,200
Speaker 13: of practice and you carry that over into the game.

2384
01:44:33,800 --> 01:44:35,519
Speaker 13: Hit some balls that we covered. We got the muff,

2385
01:44:35,520 --> 01:44:37,240
Speaker 13: we got the ball, made the tackle inside the five

2386
01:44:37,320 --> 01:44:40,200
Speaker 13: yards line. Kadar DP had another good kickoff return. So

2387
01:44:40,600 --> 01:44:43,000
Speaker 13: those plays are going to add up. And honestly, between

2388
01:44:43,040 --> 01:44:46,320
Speaker 13: those plays and they takeaways on defense kind of kept

2389
01:44:46,320 --> 01:44:47,880
Speaker 13: ourselves in the game there a little bit, which just

2390
01:44:47,920 --> 01:44:51,519
Speaker 13: speaks to at some point every phase, every player like

2391
01:44:51,560 --> 01:44:53,760
Speaker 13: their role is important. You never really know which play

2392
01:44:53,800 --> 01:44:55,800
Speaker 13: is going to impact the game. So I want to

2393
01:44:55,800 --> 01:44:58,599
Speaker 13: try to go out there and just perform and execute. Execute.

2394
01:44:58,640 --> 01:45:00,439
Speaker 13: The theme of the week was executing Finn. There are

2395
01:45:00,479 --> 01:45:01,680
Speaker 13: times that we did that, but in the end we

2396
01:45:01,720 --> 01:45:04,000
Speaker 13: just didn't really finish well enough. But I mean, that's football.

2397
01:45:04,040 --> 01:45:07,360
Speaker 13: But you know, credit to Bake and to Will and

2398
01:45:07,400 --> 01:45:09,120
Speaker 13: Frank for the work that they put in with that group.

2399
01:45:09,160 --> 01:45:10,680
Speaker 4: I know we talked about offense a bit and I

2400
01:45:10,720 --> 01:45:13,080
Speaker 4: had to go full Chris Farley on Joe Mixon. But

2401
01:45:13,400 --> 01:45:15,599
Speaker 4: isn't he awesome, Nick, I mean, he really put together

2402
01:45:15,640 --> 01:45:17,559
Speaker 4: another good performance.

2403
01:45:17,160 --> 01:45:21,439
Speaker 3: Third in the league. The River too or I don't

2404
01:45:21,439 --> 01:45:21,840
Speaker 3: think so.

2405
01:45:22,800 --> 01:45:24,280
Speaker 4: But if he did it, he would do it well,

2406
01:45:24,320 --> 01:45:27,240
Speaker 4: I'm sure. But Joe Mixon just has that ability to

2407
01:45:27,800 --> 01:45:30,800
Speaker 4: I think the line probably enjoys blocking for him as well,

2408
01:45:30,840 --> 01:45:32,120
Speaker 4: because you know it's going to make the most of

2409
01:45:32,120 --> 01:45:33,000
Speaker 4: every opportunity.

2410
01:45:33,200 --> 01:45:35,320
Speaker 13: Yeah, Joe's a really good football player. He's been very

2411
01:45:35,360 --> 01:45:37,680
Speaker 13: consistent over the course of his career. He's been a

2412
01:45:37,760 --> 01:45:39,600
Speaker 13: very productive player, you know, which is one of the

2413
01:45:39,600 --> 01:45:41,560
Speaker 13: reasons that you know, we're fortunate to ad him to

2414
01:45:41,600 --> 01:45:44,720
Speaker 13: the team. So has a really good mindset, cares a lot,

2415
01:45:44,840 --> 01:45:47,800
Speaker 13: works really hard, cares a lot about winning, is very competitive.

2416
01:45:48,479 --> 01:45:51,439
Speaker 13: He usually is going forward with a football so whatever

2417
01:45:51,479 --> 01:45:54,280
Speaker 13: the run is, it's three, but then it's four and five,

2418
01:45:54,360 --> 01:45:57,120
Speaker 13: so I kind of put yourself in a better situation.

2419
01:45:57,240 --> 01:46:00,839
Speaker 13: So versatile player, very tough. He's been a great teammate.

2420
01:46:01,040 --> 01:46:04,320
Speaker 13: He's been a great asset to our organization. So you know,

2421
01:46:04,320 --> 01:46:06,439
Speaker 13: we're fortunately that Shoe's here and hopefully he continues to

2422
01:46:06,439 --> 01:46:07,439
Speaker 13: help us in a positive name.

2423
01:46:07,800 --> 01:46:10,639
Speaker 2: Seven weeks ago, he went for one fifty nine against

2424
01:46:10,680 --> 01:46:13,240
Speaker 2: our weekend opponent. I know a lot of people out

2425
01:46:13,240 --> 01:46:16,280
Speaker 2: there know the Indianapolis Colts, but Packers in the rearview.

2426
01:46:16,400 --> 01:46:19,240
Speaker 2: Let's do it, Scott A reporting the Colts. What's changed,

2427
01:46:19,680 --> 01:46:22,599
Speaker 2: what's kind of moved around? We know there are some

2428
01:46:22,640 --> 01:46:25,240
Speaker 2: pieces that are still in place, but seven weeks ago,

2429
01:46:25,360 --> 01:46:27,000
Speaker 2: different team potentially when you think.

2430
01:46:26,920 --> 01:46:28,920
Speaker 13: About the Colts, yeah, no, kind of take maybe a

2431
01:46:28,960 --> 01:46:31,519
Speaker 13: little different tac not necessarily go through, but there are

2432
01:46:31,600 --> 01:46:33,200
Speaker 13: some things that, to your point, a little bit different,

2433
01:46:33,240 --> 01:46:34,640
Speaker 13: some things that have changed. I think the one thing

2434
01:46:34,640 --> 01:46:37,679
Speaker 13: you notice about this team, they're a very battle tested team.

2435
01:46:37,840 --> 01:46:39,840
Speaker 13: They've won for their last five. They lost their first

2436
01:46:39,880 --> 01:46:42,960
Speaker 13: two games. Every game has been a one score game.

2437
01:46:43,120 --> 01:46:46,120
Speaker 13: So they've figured out a way to win these last

2438
01:46:46,200 --> 01:46:48,760
Speaker 13: four or five weeks, whatever it's been. It's credit to

2439
01:46:48,800 --> 01:46:50,920
Speaker 13: Shane and the staff for putting them in a position,

2440
01:46:51,240 --> 01:46:53,000
Speaker 13: and they've been dealing with a lot of injuries. I

2441
01:46:53,040 --> 01:46:55,479
Speaker 13: think some of the things that we're going to see,

2442
01:46:55,600 --> 01:46:57,479
Speaker 13: I mean we saw week one, but you know, Buck

2443
01:46:57,520 --> 01:46:59,479
Speaker 13: hasn't played here a little bit. But there's a chance

2444
01:46:59,520 --> 01:47:02,200
Speaker 13: Buck's going to be back who he always presents problems

2445
01:47:02,200 --> 01:47:03,960
Speaker 13: on the defensi side of the ball. JT's been out

2446
01:47:03,960 --> 01:47:06,200
Speaker 13: here for a little bit. He's probably going to be back.

2447
01:47:06,720 --> 01:47:09,280
Speaker 13: Anthony played last week, so I mean Joe, i'd say

2448
01:47:09,280 --> 01:47:11,439
Speaker 13: filled in very admirably. I mean, Joe went out there

2449
01:47:11,479 --> 01:47:13,680
Speaker 13: and showed while he's a really good player. And the

2450
01:47:13,720 --> 01:47:15,679
Speaker 13: one player that hadn't played it didn't play Week one,

2451
01:47:15,720 --> 01:47:18,120
Speaker 13: which has been a significant factor is Josh Downs.

2452
01:47:18,240 --> 01:47:19,800
Speaker 14: So Downs is a really good football player.

2453
01:47:19,800 --> 01:47:22,160
Speaker 13: I think even though he's only played three games, he

2454
01:47:22,280 --> 01:47:25,160
Speaker 13: leads him in receptions. So here's a guy didn't play,

2455
01:47:25,520 --> 01:47:28,160
Speaker 13: but he makes an impact at our offense, and it's

2456
01:47:28,240 --> 01:47:29,800
Speaker 13: kind of staying on the offensive side of the ball.

2457
01:47:30,160 --> 01:47:32,280
Speaker 13: You know, Pierce leads the league and yards per catch,

2458
01:47:32,400 --> 01:47:35,200
Speaker 13: so he's not a high volume catcher, but the way

2459
01:47:35,240 --> 01:47:37,200
Speaker 13: he impacts the game, I mean, they launched a few

2460
01:47:37,240 --> 01:47:37,920
Speaker 13: over our heads.

2461
01:47:38,000 --> 01:47:39,680
Speaker 14: He was the point of attack on a few of them.

2462
01:47:39,720 --> 01:47:42,559
Speaker 13: So the explosive play element has been a big part

2463
01:47:42,600 --> 01:47:45,439
Speaker 13: of their offense and they've had a lot of success,

2464
01:47:45,520 --> 01:47:48,320
Speaker 13: you know, in those areas. And then defensively, with Buck back,

2465
01:47:48,320 --> 01:47:50,240
Speaker 13: everything's going to start with Buck and Grover Stewart, so

2466
01:47:50,280 --> 01:47:52,560
Speaker 13: it kind of starts on the inside with those two,

2467
01:47:52,600 --> 01:47:55,679
Speaker 13: and then Zaire and ej are their second and third

2468
01:47:56,000 --> 01:47:58,439
Speaker 13: on a team. In tackles and Nick Cross safety leads

2469
01:47:58,439 --> 01:48:00,439
Speaker 13: a team in tackles, and they kind of had a

2470
01:48:00,479 --> 01:48:02,360
Speaker 13: deal with some moving parts. They're on a perimeter or

2471
01:48:02,360 --> 01:48:05,519
Speaker 13: the secondary. The one guy who they acquired they claimed

2472
01:48:05,520 --> 01:48:08,720
Speaker 13: at the deadline, Samuel Omack, who was in San Francisco,

2473
01:48:09,160 --> 01:48:12,160
Speaker 13: has kind of stepped into that starting corner roll opposite

2474
01:48:12,240 --> 01:48:15,120
Speaker 13: Jalen Jones with Brents being out, and then that leaves

2475
01:48:15,200 --> 01:48:18,599
Speaker 13: Kenny Moore in his role. So they're a good team

2476
01:48:18,640 --> 01:48:20,479
Speaker 13: on both sides of the ball. And then coach Mason

2477
01:48:20,520 --> 01:48:21,920
Speaker 13: does a really good job in a kicking game, and

2478
01:48:22,000 --> 01:48:23,960
Speaker 13: they blocked a pun against us in the first game,

2479
01:48:24,080 --> 01:48:27,160
Speaker 13: so their ability to rush and create havoc for the

2480
01:48:27,240 --> 01:48:29,599
Speaker 13: punt team, I mean, that's going to be critically important.

2481
01:48:29,640 --> 01:48:31,000
Speaker 14: So it's a really.

2482
01:48:30,880 --> 01:48:33,360
Speaker 13: Good football team that's battle tested, that's one for the

2483
01:48:33,439 --> 01:48:35,840
Speaker 13: last five and this game's for first place. So to

2484
01:48:35,920 --> 01:48:37,400
Speaker 13: your point, going back to the beginning mark, there's a

2485
01:48:37,400 --> 01:48:38,120
Speaker 13: lot on the line here.

2486
01:48:38,400 --> 01:48:41,120
Speaker 2: So Stewart played last week at linebacker and ended up

2487
01:48:41,120 --> 01:48:46,280
Speaker 2: having I think eighteen tackles and Brant yeah right, and bring.

2488
01:48:46,120 --> 01:48:47,519
Speaker 1: It up because a he's got beautiful hair.

2489
01:48:47,640 --> 01:48:50,360
Speaker 2: Secondly, the fact that if he's got to play a

2490
01:48:50,400 --> 01:48:52,599
Speaker 2: lot of defense. Does that take away from our special

2491
01:48:52,640 --> 01:48:54,320
Speaker 2: teams because we know how good of a special teams

2492
01:48:54,320 --> 01:48:54,680
Speaker 2: player he is.

2493
01:48:54,760 --> 01:48:56,920
Speaker 13: Yeah, he's an impact special teams player. Louvii's an impact

2494
01:48:56,960 --> 01:48:59,000
Speaker 13: special teams player. So they'll probably have to figure out

2495
01:48:59,000 --> 01:49:01,280
Speaker 13: how they want to allocate their You know, car Lee's

2496
01:49:01,320 --> 01:49:03,000
Speaker 13: has been in and out. The kid from Missouri can

2497
01:49:03,200 --> 01:49:06,519
Speaker 13: transition from some safety to linebackers, so they have some

2498
01:49:06,560 --> 01:49:09,280
Speaker 13: moving parts here at linebacker. But when those players are

2499
01:49:09,320 --> 01:49:10,880
Speaker 13: on a field, you know, you got to count for him.

2500
01:49:10,920 --> 01:49:12,880
Speaker 13: And if Grant's involved in the kicking game, like, you

2501
01:49:12,920 --> 01:49:15,040
Speaker 13: got to make sure you handle him because he's very

2502
01:49:15,040 --> 01:49:15,760
Speaker 13: disruptive player.

2503
01:49:15,800 --> 01:49:17,040
Speaker 1: No question, there might not.

2504
01:49:17,080 --> 01:49:19,280
Speaker 4: Be a team in the league that has as big

2505
01:49:19,320 --> 01:49:21,920
Speaker 4: a difference when one quarterback comes in as opposed to

2506
01:49:21,920 --> 01:49:23,479
Speaker 4: the other guy. It's like a baseball team with a

2507
01:49:23,520 --> 01:49:26,600
Speaker 4: different pitcher in there, knuckleballer, flame thrower. I mean, you

2508
01:49:26,600 --> 01:49:28,800
Speaker 4: have Flacco if he has to come into the game,

2509
01:49:28,840 --> 01:49:30,920
Speaker 4: and he had, well, the backup had to come in

2510
01:49:31,040 --> 01:49:33,280
Speaker 4: last year when the Texans played the Colts Week two,

2511
01:49:33,640 --> 01:49:35,880
Speaker 4: and it's happened numerous times with Richardson, So you have

2512
01:49:35,960 --> 01:49:37,640
Speaker 4: to sort of get ready for both right, how are

2513
01:49:37,680 --> 01:49:38,120
Speaker 4: they different?

2514
01:49:38,200 --> 01:49:40,519
Speaker 13: Yeah, you have to look at the the offense, look

2515
01:49:40,520 --> 01:49:43,040
Speaker 13: at the concepts that kind of carry over. Maybe there's

2516
01:49:43,040 --> 01:49:45,200
Speaker 13: some things they skew a little bit more towards Joe

2517
01:49:45,200 --> 01:49:47,160
Speaker 13: if he plays, and the things that they skeal him

2518
01:49:47,160 --> 01:49:48,280
Speaker 13: with board ar if he.

2519
01:49:48,200 --> 01:49:50,439
Speaker 14: Plays or when he plays. So you have to be

2520
01:49:50,479 --> 01:49:51,240
Speaker 14: prepared for both.

2521
01:49:51,320 --> 01:49:53,479
Speaker 13: You don't want to spend like too much time, like

2522
01:49:53,560 --> 01:49:57,360
Speaker 13: kind of overanalyzing it. Just understand the players, understand their strengths,

2523
01:49:57,439 --> 01:49:59,559
Speaker 13: understand the skill sets of the players that are involved,

2524
01:50:00,040 --> 01:50:02,320
Speaker 13: and then just be prepared for whatever the situation is.

2525
01:50:02,320 --> 01:50:04,200
Speaker 13: So if you have to make an adjustment and modification

2526
01:50:04,280 --> 01:50:06,120
Speaker 13: based on who's on the field, then you have the

2527
01:50:06,160 --> 01:50:07,840
Speaker 13: ability to do that because at least you have some

2528
01:50:07,960 --> 01:50:09,960
Speaker 13: film as a reference point. Can you can see them

2529
01:50:10,240 --> 01:50:10,960
Speaker 13: in that system?

2530
01:50:11,080 --> 01:50:13,880
Speaker 2: Nick I always felt like the second division, the second

2531
01:50:13,920 --> 01:50:16,160
Speaker 2: game against the division opponent. It's always kind of interesting

2532
01:50:16,200 --> 01:50:19,360
Speaker 2: to me because if you lost the game, then obviously

2533
01:50:19,400 --> 01:50:21,920
Speaker 2: there's some things you might change as you go into

2534
01:50:21,960 --> 01:50:23,639
Speaker 2: it because of well, you got beat through the run

2535
01:50:23,680 --> 01:50:25,320
Speaker 2: game or you got beat deep, or whatever the case

2536
01:50:25,400 --> 01:50:25,640
Speaker 2: might be.

2537
01:50:25,880 --> 01:50:27,960
Speaker 3: If you won that game, well there was a reason

2538
01:50:27,960 --> 01:50:28,720
Speaker 3: you were successful.

2539
01:50:28,760 --> 01:50:30,360
Speaker 2: You don't want to get too far away from that,

2540
01:50:30,400 --> 01:50:32,519
Speaker 2: because well, that was successful the first time you played them.

2541
01:50:32,560 --> 01:50:34,320
Speaker 2: It's only been seven weeks as opposed to last year

2542
01:50:34,400 --> 01:50:37,599
Speaker 2: was a full season between the two games. How does

2543
01:50:37,680 --> 01:50:41,240
Speaker 2: preparation change from week one to week eight? Even though

2544
01:50:41,320 --> 01:50:43,120
Speaker 2: you know, we ran the ball really well week one,

2545
01:50:43,640 --> 01:50:45,760
Speaker 2: but they probably improved against that a little bit as

2546
01:50:45,760 --> 01:50:48,040
Speaker 2: they've gone forward. When you go in there, how do

2547
01:50:48,040 --> 01:50:50,000
Speaker 2: you kind of anticipate maybe what they might try and

2548
01:50:50,040 --> 01:50:52,080
Speaker 2: take away or might try and do given what they

2549
01:50:52,080 --> 01:50:53,479
Speaker 2: did in week one versus we eate?

2550
01:50:53,600 --> 01:50:54,320
Speaker 14: Yeah, really what you want?

2551
01:50:54,400 --> 01:50:55,880
Speaker 13: Or you're going to go back through and honestly look

2552
01:50:55,880 --> 01:50:58,719
Speaker 13: at all seven games how they played against the opponent,

2553
01:50:58,800 --> 01:51:00,439
Speaker 13: and then you'll go back to the common an opponent

2554
01:51:00,439 --> 01:51:02,240
Speaker 13: which in that case would be us and try to

2555
01:51:02,240 --> 01:51:04,000
Speaker 13: figure out or what is some of the things that happen.

2556
01:51:04,400 --> 01:51:07,120
Speaker 13: Are they fixable? Can they carry it over? Is there

2557
01:51:07,160 --> 01:51:09,280
Speaker 13: going to be a tweak or excuse me, an adjustment?

2558
01:51:09,439 --> 01:51:12,680
Speaker 13: So again, you don't want to like overthink it, so

2559
01:51:12,960 --> 01:51:16,080
Speaker 13: just understand, you know, the game maybe play a little

2560
01:51:16,120 --> 01:51:17,840
Speaker 13: bit different, maybe you have a tweak to try to

2561
01:51:17,880 --> 01:51:20,040
Speaker 13: compensate for it, but you always kind of have to

2562
01:51:20,080 --> 01:51:21,960
Speaker 13: be prepared for the next thing. But in the end,

2563
01:51:21,960 --> 01:51:23,479
Speaker 13: you're going to come down to the core things that

2564
01:51:23,960 --> 01:51:26,679
Speaker 13: you feel you do the best and that your players

2565
01:51:26,680 --> 01:51:27,479
Speaker 13: are comfortable doing.

2566
01:51:27,680 --> 01:51:30,000
Speaker 4: I wouldn't really ask this of the coaches, even though

2567
01:51:30,160 --> 01:51:32,920
Speaker 4: with the next opponent after the Colts, they kind of

2568
01:51:32,960 --> 01:51:35,519
Speaker 4: have everything ready to go so they can be ready

2569
01:51:35,560 --> 01:51:37,800
Speaker 4: to prepare for that game. But as far as the

2570
01:51:37,880 --> 01:51:41,360
Speaker 4: short week goes, Nick and the organizational aspect of this,

2571
01:51:41,439 --> 01:51:43,360
Speaker 4: you have to get the trucks out early and set

2572
01:51:43,439 --> 01:51:44,439
Speaker 4: up the hotel early.

2573
01:51:44,479 --> 01:51:46,760
Speaker 3: It's a super short week and a pretty long trip.

2574
01:51:46,800 --> 01:51:47,920
Speaker 3: What about that, Yeah, for sure.

2575
01:51:47,960 --> 01:51:50,000
Speaker 13: I mean the focus is obviously on the Colts, but

2576
01:51:50,120 --> 01:51:52,320
Speaker 13: we also have other people in the organization that are

2577
01:51:52,320 --> 01:51:55,120
Speaker 13: ready for the quick transition. To your point, because after

2578
01:51:55,160 --> 01:51:57,479
Speaker 13: the game, I mean then the next day we got

2579
01:51:57,520 --> 01:52:00,000
Speaker 13: two ya's before we leave to head to New York,

2580
01:52:00,160 --> 01:52:03,240
Speaker 13: we'll play a good Jets team, So the coaches will

2581
01:52:03,280 --> 01:52:07,160
Speaker 13: focus on Indie. You'll have operation staff and scouting staff.

2582
01:52:07,200 --> 01:52:09,080
Speaker 13: We'll go through the advance process and start to get

2583
01:52:09,160 --> 01:52:11,040
Speaker 13: ready for New York and some of the mechanics that

2584
01:52:11,080 --> 01:52:13,360
Speaker 13: are involved there. So you try to stay ahead of

2585
01:52:13,400 --> 01:52:15,640
Speaker 13: the best of your ability understanding you have a short turnaround,

2586
01:52:15,680 --> 01:52:18,040
Speaker 13: so we'll have to handle Monday and Tuesday maybe a

2587
01:52:18,080 --> 01:52:20,960
Speaker 13: little bit different than we normally do. Wednesday's a travel

2588
01:52:21,040 --> 01:52:23,080
Speaker 13: day and then you play Thursday, and it's a long trip.

2589
01:52:23,120 --> 01:52:24,720
Speaker 13: Like you said, it's three and chains three and a

2590
01:52:24,720 --> 01:52:26,760
Speaker 13: half hours, whatever it is. So but you're always trying

2591
01:52:26,760 --> 01:52:29,160
Speaker 13: to kind of plan ahead. You'll understand when the schedule

2592
01:52:29,200 --> 01:52:31,960
Speaker 13: comes out, that's going to show up somewhere. So now

2593
01:52:32,000 --> 01:52:33,800
Speaker 13: we can put our action plan in place and kind

2594
01:52:33,800 --> 01:52:34,400
Speaker 13: of get ready to go.

2595
01:52:34,960 --> 01:52:37,000
Speaker 2: Nick, this might be more question for next week in

2596
01:52:37,000 --> 01:52:40,680
Speaker 2: some sense, but I would imagine the preparation because it

2597
01:52:40,720 --> 01:52:43,280
Speaker 2: is such a short week that maybe preparation happens near

2598
01:52:43,320 --> 01:52:44,840
Speaker 2: the end of the week as you get ready for

2599
01:52:44,880 --> 01:52:47,519
Speaker 2: the Jets. It's the only team that's had a coaching change,

2600
01:52:47,920 --> 01:52:50,240
Speaker 2: so there aren't as many games where they just head coach,

2601
01:52:50,400 --> 01:52:52,519
Speaker 2: you know, coach, whatever it might be. So how do

2602
01:52:52,560 --> 01:52:55,040
Speaker 2: you kind of handle that preparation? Do you look at

2603
01:52:55,080 --> 01:52:57,200
Speaker 2: just those couple of games, do you look at everything?

2604
01:52:57,400 --> 01:53:00,280
Speaker 2: How do you kind of build everything together? As I've

2605
01:53:00,280 --> 01:53:02,519
Speaker 2: had some changes. If DeVonta Adams comes in, they sign Reddick,

2606
01:53:02,800 --> 01:53:04,360
Speaker 2: how does that kind of play in with the fact.

2607
01:53:04,200 --> 01:53:05,920
Speaker 13: They've had a new head coach of Jeff Ulbrick. Yeah, No,

2608
01:53:05,960 --> 01:53:07,320
Speaker 13: it's a good question. Kind of goes back to what

2609
01:53:07,360 --> 01:53:09,559
Speaker 13: we usually talk about. All right, if there's any new players,

2610
01:53:09,600 --> 01:53:11,479
Speaker 13: starts with a personnel and then just kind of look

2611
01:53:11,520 --> 01:53:13,960
Speaker 13: at schematically, how are they playing. You know, when you

2612
01:53:14,000 --> 01:53:15,960
Speaker 13: watch the Jets, which you know I've watched the Jets

2613
01:53:16,000 --> 01:53:18,640
Speaker 13: here a handful of games is trying to stay ahead schematically,

2614
01:53:18,680 --> 01:53:20,720
Speaker 13: it looks like they're doing some similar things. They made

2615
01:53:20,720 --> 01:53:22,720
Speaker 13: some small tweaks. So I think the system is a

2616
01:53:22,760 --> 01:53:26,200
Speaker 13: system you don't really typically do too many overarching things.

2617
01:53:26,680 --> 01:53:28,280
Speaker 13: You're not going to drop a new system in out

2618
01:53:28,280 --> 01:53:31,280
Speaker 13: of the sky. So maybe take some things that are

2619
01:53:31,320 --> 01:53:34,439
Speaker 13: relevant and apply those, and maybe the coach has something

2620
01:53:34,479 --> 01:53:35,720
Speaker 13: that he wants to sprinkle in there.

2621
01:53:35,760 --> 01:53:36,479
Speaker 14: But I mean, i'd.

2622
01:53:36,400 --> 01:53:39,639
Speaker 13: Say systematically, looks like there's a lot of carryover other

2623
01:53:39,720 --> 01:53:41,800
Speaker 13: than there's some new players that could potentially factor in.

2624
01:53:42,040 --> 01:53:44,840
Speaker 4: All right, So this Sunday is Andre Johnson Hall of

2625
01:53:44,840 --> 01:53:48,559
Speaker 4: Fame Ring Day, Nick, and I wanted to get your

2626
01:53:48,600 --> 01:53:52,360
Speaker 4: impressions from afar of Andre Johnson as you looked at

2627
01:53:52,439 --> 01:53:54,560
Speaker 4: him with the Patriots organization, because that's what he was

2628
01:53:54,560 --> 01:53:57,280
Speaker 4: playing when you were at the Patriots organization, So what'd

2629
01:53:57,320 --> 01:53:59,519
Speaker 4: you think? Would you guys think of Andre Johnson? I

2630
01:53:59,600 --> 01:54:01,719
Speaker 4: know you guys probably had conversations about all the players

2631
01:54:01,720 --> 01:54:02,280
Speaker 4: in the NFL.

2632
01:54:02,479 --> 01:54:05,880
Speaker 13: I say this with the utmost respect for Dre because

2633
01:54:05,880 --> 01:54:07,640
Speaker 13: of how great a player he is, But he was

2634
01:54:07,680 --> 01:54:11,680
Speaker 13: a massive pain in the ass to defend because you

2635
01:54:11,760 --> 01:54:15,080
Speaker 13: had to allocate extra resources to him. So even if

2636
01:54:15,080 --> 01:54:17,479
Speaker 13: you tilted to coverage his direction, or had a double

2637
01:54:17,560 --> 01:54:19,760
Speaker 13: or had a call to account for him, there was

2638
01:54:19,800 --> 01:54:21,400
Speaker 13: a good chance like he was going to make a play.

2639
01:54:21,439 --> 01:54:23,439
Speaker 13: So to have a player that could impact the game

2640
01:54:23,520 --> 01:54:27,280
Speaker 13: that way, and I would say him Randy Moss like

2641
01:54:27,360 --> 01:54:29,479
Speaker 13: you could put them in that kind of category where

2642
01:54:29,479 --> 01:54:31,080
Speaker 13: they change the trajectory of the game. I think the

2643
01:54:31,120 --> 01:54:33,560
Speaker 13: thing that stood out about Dre is just the way

2644
01:54:33,640 --> 01:54:37,120
Speaker 13: he played, his playing style, his mindset, how strong and

2645
01:54:37,160 --> 01:54:41,320
Speaker 13: physical he was, combined with his athleticism. That's the reason

2646
01:54:41,360 --> 01:54:42,640
Speaker 13: he was in a Hall of Fame. So we had

2647
01:54:42,680 --> 01:54:46,080
Speaker 13: nothing but respect and admiration for Dre and knew in

2648
01:54:46,200 --> 01:54:49,280
Speaker 13: order to beat the Texans, if you didn't handle Andre

2649
01:54:49,800 --> 01:54:52,840
Speaker 13: like essentially you had no shot. So everything that he's

2650
01:54:52,880 --> 01:54:55,480
Speaker 13: earned he deserves, but we had they held him in

2651
01:54:55,520 --> 01:54:56,840
Speaker 13: the highest regard without question.

2652
01:54:56,960 --> 01:54:59,480
Speaker 4: He's a unique type right because training camp, he was

2653
01:54:59,520 --> 01:55:01,600
Speaker 4: at one practice and I saw him standing right next

2654
01:55:01,600 --> 01:55:04,680
Speaker 4: to Stefan Diggs, who's an elite receiver, and Stefan looks

2655
01:55:04,720 --> 01:55:05,880
Speaker 4: like his little brother almost.

2656
01:55:05,920 --> 01:55:07,280
Speaker 3: I mean, Andre's that big a target.

2657
01:55:07,440 --> 01:55:09,480
Speaker 13: There's not too many receivers that are built like Dre

2658
01:55:09,760 --> 01:55:11,560
Speaker 13: like in the history of the game. So which is

2659
01:55:11,600 --> 01:55:14,120
Speaker 13: why he was as effective and productive as he was.

2660
01:55:14,520 --> 01:55:18,120
Speaker 2: So when he's at University of Miami, everybody recruits, Everybody

2661
01:55:18,120 --> 01:55:20,040
Speaker 2: goes down there, scout's down there, scouts down there all

2662
01:55:20,080 --> 01:55:22,160
Speaker 2: the time. I got to thinking about this because twenty

2663
01:55:22,200 --> 01:55:23,920
Speaker 2: twenty four in college football has kind of changed a

2664
01:55:23,920 --> 01:55:26,000
Speaker 2: little bit. So I've been thinking about this and get

2665
01:55:26,000 --> 01:55:29,840
Speaker 2: your opinion. The two service academies are outstanding. Army and

2666
01:55:29,920 --> 01:55:31,000
Speaker 2: Navy are incredible.

2667
01:55:31,040 --> 01:55:31,680
Speaker 14: They're unefeated.

2668
01:55:32,080 --> 01:55:33,000
Speaker 1: They're both undefeated.

2669
01:55:33,400 --> 01:55:35,880
Speaker 2: How do you scout them because they know the rules

2670
01:55:35,880 --> 01:55:36,680
Speaker 2: are different or.

2671
01:55:36,600 --> 01:55:37,800
Speaker 3: How do you scout them?

2672
01:55:37,880 --> 01:55:38,640
Speaker 1: Nick same?

2673
01:55:38,800 --> 01:55:41,120
Speaker 13: Yeah, No, Differently, you have access, you can still get

2674
01:55:41,120 --> 01:55:43,200
Speaker 13: to campus, you can watch practice, and then you'll have

2675
01:55:43,240 --> 01:55:45,920
Speaker 13: a few that will show up potentially at the All

2676
01:55:45,920 --> 01:55:47,760
Speaker 13: Star Game. A few years ago. I think Andre Carter

2677
01:55:48,240 --> 01:55:50,800
Speaker 13: eston NATA showed up Army Senior Bowl. So if you're

2678
01:55:50,800 --> 01:55:52,520
Speaker 13: a good football player, it's a good chance Jim Nagg

2679
01:55:52,520 --> 01:55:53,600
Speaker 13: he's gonna find you and you got to get you

2680
01:55:53,640 --> 01:55:56,160
Speaker 13: down in the Senior Bowl or the East West Shrine.

2681
01:55:56,200 --> 01:55:59,440
Speaker 13: They'll get you out there. So no change. Again we've

2682
01:55:59,480 --> 01:56:01,600
Speaker 13: gone through is what the rules are. Are they eligible and

2683
01:56:01,600 --> 01:56:03,600
Speaker 13: they're not eligible or they're going to be able to play.

2684
01:56:03,640 --> 01:56:08,200
Speaker 13: But I mean what those programs do, I mean is

2685
01:56:08,200 --> 01:56:09,240
Speaker 13: is absolutely incredible.

2686
01:56:09,280 --> 01:56:10,600
Speaker 14: It's a credit to our country.

2687
01:56:10,640 --> 01:56:12,960
Speaker 13: It's a credit to the coaches that are there, and

2688
01:56:13,040 --> 01:56:16,800
Speaker 13: you're just dealing with a different type of individual that

2689
01:56:16,920 --> 01:56:19,480
Speaker 13: essentially is representing our country. But they obviously have a

2690
01:56:19,480 --> 01:56:20,920
Speaker 13: lot of good qualities that you would want to have

2691
01:56:20,960 --> 01:56:23,600
Speaker 13: on your football team. So there's really no material change

2692
01:56:23,600 --> 01:56:26,040
Speaker 13: to your process other than that. I mean, it looks

2693
01:56:26,080 --> 01:56:28,680
Speaker 13: like I mean they're including Air Force as well. I

2694
01:56:28,680 --> 01:56:31,880
Speaker 13: think all service academies they're not under Army a neighbor undefeed.

2695
01:56:31,880 --> 01:56:33,160
Speaker 13: I think air Force seven is good a year as

2696
01:56:33,160 --> 01:56:33,840
Speaker 13: anybody as well.

2697
01:56:34,160 --> 01:56:36,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, have we ever had a Service academy player here?

2698
01:56:36,600 --> 01:56:38,560
Speaker 3: I can't remember. I don't remember.

2699
01:56:38,760 --> 01:56:39,320
Speaker 14: Mark would know.

2700
01:56:39,320 --> 01:56:41,320
Speaker 1: If Mark doesn't know, That's why I'm going to the

2701
01:56:41,360 --> 01:56:41,760
Speaker 1: source here.

2702
01:56:41,800 --> 01:56:43,680
Speaker 2: I figured he would be he would be the one

2703
01:56:43,920 --> 01:56:45,080
Speaker 2: good football teams.

2704
01:56:45,240 --> 01:56:47,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, sometimes we have guys who have been here. I'm thinking, oh, yeah,

2705
01:56:47,920 --> 01:56:50,840
Speaker 4: I forgot about him. But that's a long time ago. Okay, Nick,

2706
01:56:51,040 --> 01:56:53,480
Speaker 4: very important hypothetical question for you right now.

2707
01:56:53,520 --> 01:56:54,240
Speaker 3: This is crucial.

2708
01:56:54,280 --> 01:56:57,720
Speaker 4: Okay, let's just say your daughters say you have to

2709
01:56:57,760 --> 01:56:59,840
Speaker 4: have a piece of Halloween candy, like, you have to

2710
01:56:59,920 --> 01:57:00,560
Speaker 4: have this.

2711
01:57:01,040 --> 01:57:01,880
Speaker 3: What is it gonna be?

2712
01:57:01,960 --> 01:57:05,160
Speaker 4: You get to choose his face, You get to choose

2713
01:57:05,160 --> 01:57:06,280
Speaker 4: because you're not gonna be here.

2714
01:57:06,080 --> 01:57:06,880
Speaker 14: We're none of that.

2715
01:57:06,880 --> 01:57:09,080
Speaker 4: That's right, we're not here for Halloween, but we're gonna

2716
01:57:09,120 --> 01:57:11,160
Speaker 4: come back. They're gonna have the candy and you have

2717
01:57:11,240 --> 01:57:12,440
Speaker 4: to eat something that they have.

2718
01:57:12,760 --> 01:57:14,640
Speaker 14: What would you pick my least favorite holiday?

2719
01:57:15,160 --> 01:57:17,960
Speaker 1: I would probably I'd probably.

2720
01:57:17,680 --> 01:57:18,960
Speaker 14: Take a shot at a tutsi roll.

2721
01:57:19,560 --> 01:57:23,880
Speaker 13: Okay, I'd probably take like one on the teeth though, Yeah, whatever,

2722
01:57:23,960 --> 01:57:25,800
Speaker 13: if I had to pick one, which I wouldn't because

2723
01:57:25,840 --> 01:57:29,240
Speaker 13: usually the instructions are, you have too much candy, we

2724
01:57:29,360 --> 01:57:31,040
Speaker 13: have to give away more than half of it, and

2725
01:57:31,120 --> 01:57:32,680
Speaker 13: of course they have a nervous breakdown.

2726
01:57:32,920 --> 01:57:35,440
Speaker 14: No we can't, we're gonna eat it. We'll just pick

2727
01:57:35,440 --> 01:57:35,920
Speaker 14: your spots.

2728
01:57:35,920 --> 01:57:38,040
Speaker 1: Man, that's a high tax rate to give away half of.

2729
01:57:38,000 --> 01:57:39,600
Speaker 14: It, really three quarters?

2730
01:57:39,600 --> 01:57:42,000
Speaker 13: Like, yeah, you can't eat that much candy over the

2731
01:57:42,040 --> 01:57:43,960
Speaker 13: course of or many weeks.

2732
01:57:44,000 --> 01:57:45,320
Speaker 14: If you want to keep your teeth.

2733
01:57:45,080 --> 01:57:48,400
Speaker 1: That's probably the right thing to do. That's probably the right.

2734
01:57:48,240 --> 01:57:48,640
Speaker 7: Thing to do.

2735
01:57:48,760 --> 01:57:50,760
Speaker 2: Okay, So if you had to dress up for Halloween,

2736
01:57:50,880 --> 01:57:53,080
Speaker 2: what's your favorite Halloween costume as a kid?

2737
01:57:53,560 --> 01:57:56,400
Speaker 13: Well, I don't dress up often, but if I was

2738
01:57:56,440 --> 01:57:58,240
Speaker 13: forced to dress up when actually my wife and I

2739
01:57:58,280 --> 01:57:59,920
Speaker 13: were dating, I had to go to a costume party,

2740
01:58:00,120 --> 01:58:02,760
Speaker 13: you know, at her apartment. So I think I dressed

2741
01:58:02,800 --> 01:58:05,040
Speaker 13: up as like a pilot, like a top gun pilot.

2742
01:58:05,120 --> 01:58:06,560
Speaker 13: So that's all I had to do was put on it,

2743
01:58:06,640 --> 01:58:09,360
Speaker 13: like a shirt, a pair of wings, and sunglasses. I

2744
01:58:09,360 --> 01:58:11,840
Speaker 13: really to do anything, but it looked like I was

2745
01:58:12,120 --> 01:58:13,520
Speaker 13: part of the costume party.

2746
01:58:13,600 --> 01:58:15,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, okay, next time to be Tom Brady. It's

2747
01:58:16,000 --> 01:58:18,600
Speaker 4: pretty good. Yeah, Nick, thanks a lot for joining us.

2748
01:58:18,600 --> 01:58:19,280
Speaker 4: Good luck this week.

2749
01:58:19,320 --> 01:58:19,920
Speaker 14: Thanks fellas.

2750
01:58:19,960 --> 01:58:23,760
Speaker 4: There's executive vice president and general manager Nick Cassio. Our

2751
01:58:23,840 --> 01:58:25,880
Speaker 4: visit with him always goes up on YouTube, so you

2752
01:58:25,880 --> 01:58:27,960
Speaker 4: can check it out there. I mean, sometimes I'm thinking

2753
01:58:28,000 --> 01:58:30,520
Speaker 4: that it's better off heard and not seen when I'm

2754
01:58:30,560 --> 01:58:33,280
Speaker 4: concerned face for radio kind of stuff. But anyway, you

2755
01:58:33,280 --> 01:58:36,280
Speaker 4: can see Nick there. I think Nick's kids watched the show.

2756
01:58:36,320 --> 01:58:40,520
Speaker 4: I think Dimico's kids watch the Demico version on YouTube,

2757
01:58:40,880 --> 01:58:43,040
Speaker 4: and all the Texans video stuff is on YouTube and

2758
01:58:43,040 --> 01:58:45,760
Speaker 4: it's awesome. Anyway, coming up on this particular hour of

2759
01:58:45,760 --> 01:58:49,320
Speaker 4: Texans All Access, you're gonna hear from Bill Davis, linebacker's coach.

2760
01:58:49,360 --> 01:58:50,160
Speaker 3: We caught up with him.

2761
01:58:50,200 --> 01:58:53,240
Speaker 4: Super interesting guy, coached with Dom Capers and Vic Fangio

2762
01:58:53,320 --> 01:58:55,600

2798
02:00:24,160 --> 02:00:28,560
Speaker 16: dreams of like playing college, playing in the NFL. For me,

2799
02:00:29,560 --> 02:00:31,800
Speaker 16: my dream school was always to go to University of Miami.

2800
02:00:33,360 --> 02:00:36,040
Speaker 16: So you know that ended up happening. When I got

2801
02:00:36,080 --> 02:00:40,640
Speaker 16: to Miami. My receiver coach, he was probably one of

2802
02:00:40,640 --> 02:00:46,120
Speaker 16: the best receiver coaches around. He was just like, man,

2803
02:00:46,120 --> 02:00:49,480
Speaker 16: I'm trying to prepare you for the NFL, and man,

2804
02:00:49,520 --> 02:00:52,680
Speaker 16: he pushed me like no one had ever had. So

2805
02:00:53,600 --> 02:00:56,080
Speaker 16: he was only by every little thing. He was very

2806
02:00:56,120 --> 02:00:59,760
Speaker 16: detailed about every little thing, and man, I was able

2807
02:00:59,800 --> 02:01:01,920
Speaker 16: to make can happen, and you know, ended up coming

2808
02:01:01,920 --> 02:01:05,360
Speaker 16: here and the transition for me was pretty smooth because

2809
02:01:05,400 --> 02:01:08,160
Speaker 16: he had prepared me like I was an NFL He

2810
02:01:08,240 --> 02:01:08,760
Speaker 16: still do you?

2811
02:01:08,800 --> 02:01:10,560
Speaker 6: Did you keep in contact with him when you got

2812
02:01:10,560 --> 02:01:11,320
Speaker 6: to the league.

2813
02:01:11,440 --> 02:01:14,320
Speaker 16: Yeah, so he's, uh, he's actually the head coach for

2814
02:01:14,360 --> 02:01:19,160
Speaker 16: the Houston rough Necks Old yeah, yeah, yeah, so you

2815
02:01:19,200 --> 02:01:21,160
Speaker 16: know I went out to a few games, you know,

2816
02:01:21,360 --> 02:01:23,240
Speaker 16: just to support him and things and that he's like

Speaker 15: stayed here for a while.

2821
02:01:30,760 --> 02:01:32,839
Speaker 6: What was that like just seeing going.

2822
02:01:32,600 --> 02:01:34,720
Speaker 15: Through all the trials and tribulations with those early Texas

2823
02:01:34,720 --> 02:01:38,160
Speaker 15: teams into becoming like that playoff teams that you developed into.

2824
02:01:38,240 --> 02:01:40,200

02:01:49,760 --> 02:01:53,480
Speaker 16: Like the first the first few years, like the first

2832
02:01:53,480 --> 02:01:56,600
Speaker 16: I should probably say, like the first four years it

2833
02:01:56,640 --> 02:01:57,080
Speaker 16: was rough.

2834
02:01:57,240 --> 02:01:59,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, like remember yeah, you're watching them.

2835
02:01:59,920 --> 02:02:03,480

2836
02:02:03,600 --> 02:02:08,400
Speaker 16: it never made me like every year made me want

2837
02:02:08,440 --> 02:02:10,720
Speaker 16: it even more, like you know what I'm saying, Like

2838
02:02:11,200 --> 02:02:13,720
Speaker 16: it made it just every year, I just came back

2879
02:04:03,040 --> 02:04:06,240
Speaker 16: free time I had, bro you, you wouldn't believe the

2880
02:04:06,240 --> 02:04:08,240
Speaker 16: first thing I did. I went and bought some season

2881
02:04:08,360 --> 02:04:12,080
Speaker 16: tickets to the Rockets. Oh real, yeah yeah, So like

2882
02:04:12,960 --> 02:04:14,960
Speaker 16: that was like one of my things. Like I always

2883
02:04:15,040 --> 02:04:19,360
Speaker 16: was a big fan of basketball, so did you Yeah,

2884
02:04:19,360 --> 02:04:24,400
Speaker 16: I played in high school. So when I when I

2885
02:04:24,440 --> 02:04:26,520
Speaker 16: got here, I was just like it's like, no, I

2886
02:04:26,520 --> 02:04:28,280
Speaker 16: want to just go get me some tickets, you know.

2887
02:04:28,640 --> 02:04:30,840
Speaker 16: So I started going to the games and things of

2888
02:04:30,880 --> 02:04:33,160
Speaker 16: that nature. And like like you said, it was just

2889
02:04:33,280 --> 02:04:35,240
Speaker 16: because that was the year I got here, was the

2890
02:04:35,280 --> 02:04:39,080
Speaker 16: first year for the Toyota Center. Yeah, so I was

2891
02:04:39,120 --> 02:04:41,320
Speaker 16: the second year of the team, so everything was just

2892
02:04:41,400 --> 02:04:47,560
Speaker 16: kind of new, you know. So and as time went along, man,

2893
02:04:47,720 --> 02:04:50,240
Speaker 16: like I kind of see seen all of it growing

2894
02:04:50,440 --> 02:04:53,280
Speaker 16: just come together. So right now, man, the city of

2895
02:04:53,280 --> 02:04:55,720
Speaker 16: Houston is just like it's like the place to be Now.

2896
02:04:55,800 --> 02:04:57,720
Speaker 15: Really, I was gonna talk about we're gonna talk about

2897
02:04:57,720 --> 02:04:59,760
Speaker 15: a little bit more of that little later, but just

2898
02:05:00,080 --> 02:05:03,480
Speaker 15: in sports now, you I feel like the Texans and

2899
02:05:04,080 --> 02:05:06,360
Speaker 15: I feel like the Rockets kind of had that moment

2900
02:05:06,400 --> 02:05:08,960
Speaker 15: at the same time when we first got James and

2901
02:05:09,040 --> 02:05:11,760
Speaker 15: the Texas finally like playoff first.

2902
02:05:11,520 --> 02:05:12,040
Speaker 6: And all of that.

2903
02:05:12,360 --> 02:05:15,640
Speaker 15: So, what was it like the differences between those early

2904
02:05:15,680 --> 02:05:17,120
Speaker 15: years like the two thousand and one, two thousand and

2905
02:05:17,120 --> 02:05:17,800
Speaker 15: threes to.

2906
02:05:17,800 --> 02:05:20,560
Speaker 6: Like the elevens, when I feel like everybody was just

2907
02:05:20,560 --> 02:05:20,960
Speaker 6: on fire.

2908
02:05:21,120 --> 02:05:21,320
Speaker 5: Man.

2909
02:05:21,680 --> 02:05:25,720
Speaker 16: It was definitely a different energy and it was just

2910
02:05:25,720 --> 02:05:28,760
Speaker 16: a different feeling in the city, like the city was

2911
02:05:28,880 --> 02:05:31,200
Speaker 16: rocket It was you know, like I don't care if

2912
02:05:31,200 --> 02:05:33,840
Speaker 16: you went to a football game, like basketball game, like

2913
02:05:34,440 --> 02:05:38,360
Speaker 16: It'll be times like we'll literally be at practice and

2914
02:05:39,520 --> 02:05:41,160
Speaker 16: dudes would be like, man, you go into the game

Speaker 16: during that time for me.

2926
02:06:09,680 --> 02:06:12,400
Speaker 6: At the time, I was actually at school in DC.

2927
02:06:12,520 --> 02:06:13,840
Speaker 15: I was at Howard, but I used to come down

2928

Speaker 15: all the time and watch your games and watch Rockets

2929
02:06:16,040 --> 02:06:18,800
Speaker 15: games and all that. But as a professional athlete, I

2930
02:06:18,880 --> 02:06:20,640
Speaker 15: know how the streets is now in Houston. You know

2931
02:06:20,640 --> 02:06:22,160

Speaker 15: was like the night life like back then in twenty eleven,

2934

02:07:50,800 --> 02:07:52,200

Speaker 12: As Wow, you're listening to Chase B with Andre Johnson.

2964
02:08:01,360 --> 02:08:04,160
Speaker 15: So from what I understand, so you, you and j

2965
02:08:04,240 --> 02:08:06,080
Speaker 15: Joe got a whole show called Go Talk.

2966
02:08:06,240 --> 02:08:07,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, how does that be going?

2967
02:08:07,840 --> 02:08:07,880
Speaker 17: Like?

2968
02:08:07,920 --> 02:08:10,560
Speaker 6: You got a lot of guess Chris Carter was on there.

2969
02:08:12,160 --> 02:08:16,400
Speaker 5: Uncle Luke was Yeah, we just did Uncle Luke Miami guy.

2970
02:08:16,640 --> 02:08:17,280
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying.

2971
02:08:17,760 --> 02:08:19,600
Speaker 15: So I'm going to ask you just, first of all,

2972
02:08:19,640 --> 02:08:21,880
Speaker 15: how do you feel about just the whole multimedia space now,

2973
02:08:21,920 --> 02:08:24,040
Speaker 15: I know it's a lot of a lot of content

2974
02:08:24,080 --> 02:08:26,040
Speaker 15: getting pushed out, and what made you want to just

2975
02:08:26,040 --> 02:08:27,720
Speaker 15: be a part of that and tell.

2976
02:08:27,600 --> 02:08:28,280
Speaker 5: Me, you know what.

2977
02:08:28,520 --> 02:08:31,560
Speaker 16: To be honest, it was just the idea somebody came

2978
02:08:31,600 --> 02:08:35,240
Speaker 16: to me with because people don't never hear me talk,

2979
02:08:35,520 --> 02:08:38,360
Speaker 16: so you know, it gets to show them a difference.

2980
02:08:38,360 --> 02:08:41,360
Speaker 16: So Je Joe's the same way, you know, like unless

2981
02:08:41,400 --> 02:08:42,840
Speaker 16: you really know us, you're.

2982
02:08:42,720 --> 02:08:44,320
Speaker 5: Not going to really talk to him, you know.

2983
02:08:44,440 --> 02:08:48,200
Speaker 16: So I think it's giving people and showing people. It's

2984
02:08:48,240 --> 02:08:51,880
Speaker 16: just a different side. I think that the stories are crazy. Yeah,

2985
02:08:51,920 --> 02:08:54,680
Speaker 16: I think just the whole space period. I think it's

2986
02:08:55,160 --> 02:08:58,560
Speaker 16: given guys, you know, their own platforms to tell their

2987
02:08:58,600 --> 02:09:03,400
Speaker 16: own stories and not have other people tell their story

2988
02:09:03,480 --> 02:09:03,760
Speaker 16: for them.

2989
02:09:04,800 --> 02:09:05,080
Speaker 5: Yeah.

2990
02:09:05,120 --> 02:09:08,440
Speaker 16: So I think it's definitely in a great space. I'm uh,

2991
02:09:09,120 --> 02:09:11,360
Speaker 16: I can't sit here and say I listen to everybody's

2992
02:09:11,800 --> 02:09:14,600
Speaker 16: because I think sometimes they can get a little carried

2993
02:09:14,640 --> 02:09:17,600
Speaker 16: away with some of the things they say. Yeah, but uh,

2994
02:09:18,000 --> 02:09:20,720
Speaker 16: you know, it's I think it's a great thing though.

2995
02:09:20,800 --> 02:09:23,160
Speaker 15: Yeah, for sure, definitely need a platform. You know, I

2996
02:09:23,280 --> 02:09:26,120
Speaker 15: encourage everybody to get involved in the in the right life. Yeah,

2997
02:09:26,200 --> 02:09:29,400
Speaker 15: I'm saying, yeah, so speaking of Goat Talk. We got

3039
02:11:16,600 --> 02:11:20,800
Speaker 4: for the Houston Texans. Plays really well at linebacker in general.

3040
02:11:21,040 --> 02:11:22,520
Speaker 4: I always like to mention that he led the New

02:11:37,000 --> 02:11:38,800
Speaker 3: Great to have you with us, Thanks for having me.

3047
02:11:38,840 --> 02:11:41,440
Speaker 4: All right, Well, let's talk about playing linebacker a little bit,

3048
02:11:41,480 --> 02:11:43,880
Speaker 4: because obviously you've done that at a very high level

3049
02:11:43,880 --> 02:11:46,080
Speaker 4: before in the NFL and on this team a lot

3050
02:11:46,080 --> 02:11:49,000
Speaker 4: of special teams work and pressed into linebacker duty. What

3051
02:11:49,080 --> 02:11:50,960
Speaker 4: was that like for you to face the Packers and

3052
02:11:51,000 --> 02:11:52,000
Speaker 4: play well against them?

3053
02:11:52,280 --> 02:11:52,800
Speaker 14: It was fun.

3054
02:11:52,800 --> 02:11:53,640
Speaker 6: It was definitely fun.

3055
02:11:53,760 --> 02:11:56,360
Speaker 17: I'm just trying my best to execute the game plan.

3056
02:11:56,560 --> 02:11:56,800
Speaker 14: Fun.

3057
02:11:56,960 --> 02:12:00,920
Speaker 2: Okay, take us through the interception because from my angle,

3058
02:12:01,360 --> 02:12:03,080
Speaker 2: I had a kind of similar angle to Mark. We're

3059
02:12:03,160 --> 02:12:05,800
Speaker 2: kind of the same line, so we could see Peetree,

3060
02:12:05,880 --> 02:12:07,520
Speaker 2: but we didn't know you had the ball until all

3061
02:12:07,520 --> 02:12:08,960
Speaker 2: of a sudden you just take off running with us.

3062
02:12:09,000 --> 02:12:09,959
Speaker 1: Take us through the interception?

3063
02:12:10,040 --> 02:12:10,680
Speaker 7: What was that like?

3064
02:12:10,800 --> 02:12:11,880
Speaker 3: Just taking off down the field.

3065
02:12:12,120 --> 02:12:15,920
Speaker 17: Uh, Petree's playing this technique perfectly, and I'm being being

3066
02:12:15,920 --> 02:12:17,520
Speaker 17: around the ball where I was supposed to be and

3067
02:12:18,040 --> 02:12:20,600
Speaker 17: he tipps it, catch it all. I see the end zone,

3068
02:12:21,520 --> 02:12:24,560
Speaker 17: I'm running and that's the love. I try to cut inside.

3069
02:12:24,560 --> 02:12:25,800
Speaker 17: He got me around the teen.

3070
02:12:26,080 --> 02:12:27,920
Speaker 2: Did you think about going to Earl Campbell on him

3071
02:12:27,920 --> 02:12:29,840
Speaker 2: because he is the quarterback to kind of just turn

3072
02:12:29,960 --> 02:12:31,480
Speaker 2: back in and go, Okay, I'm gonna turn it into

3073
02:12:31,480 --> 02:12:33,520
Speaker 2: a beast right now, or just you're thinking I'm gonna

3074
02:12:33,520 --> 02:12:34,240
Speaker 2: get as far as I can.

3075
02:12:34,640 --> 02:12:36,880
Speaker 17: I'm not gonna get as far as I can. And

3076
02:12:36,880 --> 02:12:38,600
Speaker 17: as so was I sing like you got an angle

3077
02:12:38,640 --> 02:12:40,600
Speaker 17: on me, yea to cut inside, I might be able

3078
02:12:40,640 --> 02:12:42,360
Speaker 17: to do him and go score.

3079
02:12:42,520 --> 02:12:44,120
Speaker 1: But you had two other plays during the game that

3080
02:12:44,200 --> 02:12:44,720
Speaker 1: well you got.

3081
02:12:44,600 --> 02:12:46,280
Speaker 2: Your hand on the ball that were really imported me

3082
02:12:46,280 --> 02:12:48,400
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter that last driver, or you get

3083
02:12:48,400 --> 02:12:50,160
Speaker 2: your hand on it, then Dobbs hits it and then

3084
02:12:50,280 --> 02:12:52,600
Speaker 2: Eric almost comes up with it. You played really well

3085
02:12:52,600 --> 02:12:55,400
Speaker 2: in pass coverage. What was it that you kind of

3086
02:12:55,400 --> 02:12:57,320
Speaker 2: just dialed into what they were doing, just kind of

3087
02:12:57,360 --> 02:12:59,040
Speaker 2: being in your spot where you're supposed to be. What

3088
02:12:59,120 --> 02:13:00,520
Speaker 2: was kind of key to your game on Sunday in

3089
02:13:00,520 --> 02:13:01,000
Speaker 2: that regard.

3090
02:13:01,040 --> 02:13:05,360
Speaker 17: I'm just listening to the coaches playing out my technique,

3091
02:13:05,640 --> 02:13:08,000
Speaker 17: you know, for some of my technique is for me

3092
02:13:08,040 --> 02:13:09,800
Speaker 17: to be in that window, get some dep and then

3093
02:13:09,840 --> 02:13:12,480
Speaker 17: it's two minute. They were trying to get the ball

3094
02:13:12,520 --> 02:13:14,680
Speaker 17: there obviously, and it was in the right place.

3095
02:13:14,840 --> 02:13:18,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, definite, we were Neville what's the mentality on special

3096
02:13:18,200 --> 02:13:20,440
Speaker 4: teams because you know you're not going to be out

3097
02:13:20,480 --> 02:13:23,240
Speaker 4: there all the time, but when you are giving an

3098
02:13:23,240 --> 02:13:25,120
Speaker 4: opportunity to make a play, you tend to make them.

3099
02:13:25,160 --> 02:13:26,440
Speaker 3: So what is your mindset?

3100
02:13:26,520 --> 02:13:29,080
Speaker 17: I mean, that's the way special teams is one on one,

3101
02:13:29,240 --> 02:13:31,320
Speaker 17: So whoever wins there one on one the most is

3102
02:13:31,360 --> 02:13:33,520
Speaker 17: gonna make the most plays. And so you know, we

3103
02:13:33,640 --> 02:13:36,560
Speaker 17: got our team is built out for lentless strain, and

3104
02:13:36,640 --> 02:13:38,560
Speaker 17: so if you strain the beach or your guy in

3105
02:13:38,560 --> 02:13:40,240
Speaker 17: front of you, you're going to show up a lot.

3106
02:13:40,440 --> 02:13:43,280
Speaker 2: Now, one of the things I noticed, especially later in

3107
02:13:43,280 --> 02:13:45,120
Speaker 2: the game, and I'm sure you were doing it throughout,

3108
02:13:45,160 --> 02:13:48,080
Speaker 2: but you're very demonstrative about moving guys where they need

3109
02:13:48,120 --> 02:13:50,080
Speaker 2: to go, getting them lined up, especially the front. There

3110
02:13:50,120 --> 02:13:53,360
Speaker 2: was one time where I don't I remember hearing Love

3111
02:13:53,520 --> 02:13:56,520
Speaker 2: say something and then you immediately like grab guys that

3112
02:13:56,560 --> 02:13:59,520
Speaker 2: you go right right? You were taking charge of the defense.

3113
02:13:59,760 --> 02:14:01,440
Speaker 2: Was that kind of your mo o going in that?

3114
02:14:01,520 --> 02:14:03,160
Speaker 2: You were like, you know what, I'm the captain of defense.

3115
02:14:03,160 --> 02:14:05,440
Speaker 2: I'm calling this thing. I want everybody to respect what

3116
02:14:05,520 --> 02:14:07,200
Speaker 2: I'm saying. How is kind of your mindset as you

3117
02:14:07,240 --> 02:14:08,600
Speaker 2: were going in from that perspective.

3118
02:14:08,680 --> 02:14:11,600
Speaker 17: I mean, it is our responsibility as the linebackers of

3119
02:14:11,640 --> 02:14:13,760
Speaker 17: this defense is to, you know, to run the show

3120
02:14:13,800 --> 02:14:15,680
Speaker 17: and make sure everybody's on the same page. And so

3121
02:14:15,920 --> 02:14:17,720
Speaker 17: as long as everybody on the same page and we

3122
02:14:17,760 --> 02:14:20,240
Speaker 17: play our technique right, we're a hard team to beat.

3123
02:14:20,840 --> 02:14:23,000
Speaker 17: And that's that's why I was trying to do feeling

3124
02:14:23,080 --> 02:14:25,200
Speaker 17: in my role and go to the best of my ability.

3125
02:14:25,560 --> 02:14:28,760
Speaker 4: You're from Georgia, and we always talk about how many

3126
02:14:28,760 --> 02:14:31,360
Speaker 4: great players come from Texas, Florida, California.

3127
02:14:31,520 --> 02:14:33,120
Speaker 3: Georgia is right up there.

3128
02:14:33,160 --> 02:14:36,280
Speaker 4: I see more NFL players that are from Georgia than ever.

3129
02:14:36,480 --> 02:14:39,200
Speaker 1: Why is that level that is south?

3130
02:14:39,280 --> 02:14:42,040
Speaker 17: It's the south Man, you know, grow up playing football

3131
02:14:42,080 --> 02:14:45,280
Speaker 17: and everybody compete at a high level, and you know,

3132
02:14:45,880 --> 02:14:49,960
Speaker 17: you know, we try to represent Georgia. Texas, Florida hot

3133
02:14:49,960 --> 02:14:51,160
Speaker 17: spot for football players.

3134
02:14:51,280 --> 02:14:51,440
Speaker 5: Yeah.

3135
02:14:51,520 --> 02:14:51,760
Speaker 1: CJ.

3136
02:14:51,880 --> 02:14:54,400
Speaker 3: The other day he started naming off all these different states.

3137
02:14:54,680 --> 02:14:56,400
Speaker 2: I don't know if he ended up naming it Georgia,

3138
02:14:56,480 --> 02:14:59,560
Speaker 2: but I think per capita, Georgia's probably got as many

3139
02:15:00,280 --> 02:15:02,440
Speaker 2: as you could have throughout the league.

3140
02:15:02,600 --> 02:15:03,960
Speaker 1: How did playing there.

3141
02:15:04,360 --> 02:15:06,600
Speaker 2: Make you a better college player and then turn it

3142
02:15:06,640 --> 02:15:07,880
Speaker 2: into a better NFL player?

3143
02:15:08,120 --> 02:15:11,360
Speaker 17: I mean, the competition level is very high there, you know,

3144
02:15:11,520 --> 02:15:13,520
Speaker 17: so you're playing against some of the best of the

3145
02:15:13,560 --> 02:15:16,520
Speaker 17: best players in the world in your state. So you know,

3146
02:15:16,640 --> 02:15:19,400
Speaker 17: these a lot of these guys going Division one. You know,

3147
02:15:20,040 --> 02:15:22,600
Speaker 17: probably got offered a sophomore year high school. Yeah, so

3148
02:15:23,720 --> 02:15:26,360
Speaker 17: just being there, and we moved here when I was

3149
02:15:26,400 --> 02:15:28,120
Speaker 17: in eighth grade. So once we moved here and I

3150
02:15:28,200 --> 02:15:31,520
Speaker 17: just seen they had middle school football. That's different than

3151
02:15:31,600 --> 02:15:34,640
Speaker 17: up North. You're not where padded football up North.

3152
02:15:34,720 --> 02:15:38,560
Speaker 4: Yea, yeah, right, So you spent time at Georgia Military.

3153
02:15:38,640 --> 02:15:41,280
Speaker 4: Is that what it's called junior college? What was that like?

3154
02:15:41,320 --> 02:15:43,360
Speaker 4: What is it like being in a junior college and

3155
02:15:43,400 --> 02:15:46,400
Speaker 4: you're thinking, well, I want to transfer to a bigger college.

3156
02:15:46,400 --> 02:15:48,680
Speaker 4: You went to Marshall after that, but you don't know

3157
02:15:48,720 --> 02:15:49,960
Speaker 4: if you're gonna get there for sure.

3158
02:15:50,040 --> 02:15:51,880
Speaker 17: So what was that like for you? I mean it

3159
02:15:51,960 --> 02:15:53,680
Speaker 17: was just like boot camp. I mean we had we

3160
02:15:54,080 --> 02:15:55,920
Speaker 17: had to be in a cadet corps. So okay, it

3161
02:15:55,960 --> 02:15:57,760
Speaker 17: was one of the best things for me. I would

3162
02:15:57,800 --> 02:15:59,400
Speaker 17: say that wasn't a bad hit or anything. I had

3163
02:15:59,480 --> 02:16:03,640
Speaker 17: several don't want scholarships, but it was it gave us structure,

3164
02:16:04,080 --> 02:16:07,520
Speaker 17: time management, and how to be places on time and

3165
02:16:07,960 --> 02:16:09,320
Speaker 17: it was tough. It was I was like, if we

3166
02:16:09,320 --> 02:16:10,880
Speaker 17: could make it through this, you could do anything in

3167
02:16:10,920 --> 02:16:11,280
Speaker 17: the world.

3168
02:16:11,400 --> 02:16:14,800
Speaker 4: Okay, So real military environment being Georgia Military.

3169
02:16:15,040 --> 02:16:16,760
Speaker 3: Then what was Marshall like for you after that?

3170
02:16:16,880 --> 02:16:17,040
Speaker 14: Oh?

3171
02:16:17,080 --> 02:16:18,040
Speaker 17: Man, Marshall was fun.

3172
02:16:19,760 --> 02:16:21,200
Speaker 1: You go from a cadet.

3173
02:16:20,920 --> 02:16:24,560
Speaker 17: Corps to you know, a structure like that to kind

3174
02:16:24,560 --> 02:16:26,200
Speaker 17: of having some freedom, right.

3175
02:16:26,400 --> 02:16:27,560
Speaker 6: It was it was cool man.

3176
02:16:27,720 --> 02:16:30,320
Speaker 2: But you fall back on your that military training you

3177
02:16:30,360 --> 02:16:31,800
Speaker 2: had for a couple of years. You kind of fall

3178
02:16:31,840 --> 02:16:33,800
Speaker 2: back on that in some sense as you become a

3179
02:16:33,840 --> 02:16:36,720
Speaker 2: pro because I think every coach we've had come in here,

3180
02:16:36,879 --> 02:16:37,560
Speaker 2: every player.

3181
02:16:37,360 --> 02:16:39,280
Speaker 1: That's come in here, they talk about the routine like

3182
02:16:39,360 --> 02:16:40,400
Speaker 1: being routine.

3183
02:16:40,080 --> 02:16:42,280
Speaker 2: Based, especially during the season, and you got to you

3184
02:16:42,320 --> 02:16:45,199
Speaker 2: gotta have your routine. Did getting back in the NFL

3185
02:16:45,240 --> 02:16:46,800
Speaker 2: or getting into the NFL, did that kind of bring

3186
02:16:46,879 --> 02:16:48,840
Speaker 2: that back out of you kind of find that routine

3187
02:16:48,840 --> 02:16:49,279
Speaker 2: for yourself.

3188
02:16:49,320 --> 02:16:53,320
Speaker 17: I mean there's nothing harder than that period at Georgia Military,

3189
02:16:53,360 --> 02:16:56,760
Speaker 17: the two of days deb Corp. Yeah, just having to

3190
02:16:56,920 --> 02:16:59,720
Speaker 17: just be on the schedule and you have no control

3191
02:16:59,760 --> 02:17:02,959
Speaker 17: of it and being able to go to go to

3192
02:17:03,040 --> 02:17:06,039
Speaker 17: Marshall bring that with me. Had the discipline and not

3193
02:17:06,360 --> 02:17:08,560
Speaker 17: I'm not partying every night right here for the party.

3194
02:17:08,640 --> 02:17:11,080
Speaker 17: Once I get to the league, you know, there's guys

3195
02:17:11,120 --> 02:17:12,879
Speaker 17: that have a lot more money than us, you know,

3196
02:17:12,920 --> 02:17:15,120
Speaker 17: that can do more things. So it helped with the

3197
02:17:15,240 --> 02:17:17,679
Speaker 17: discipline of you know, as an adult.

3198
02:17:18,000 --> 02:17:18,840
Speaker 3: Nevill Hewett with us.

3199
02:17:18,879 --> 02:17:21,760
Speaker 4: So you signed with the Dolphins undrafted out of Marshall.

3200
02:17:22,120 --> 02:17:25,279
Speaker 4: Did that Georgia military mindset sort of help you early

3201
02:17:25,320 --> 02:17:28,120
Speaker 4: on because you're not promised anything as an undrafted free

3202
02:17:28,160 --> 02:17:29,600
Speaker 4: agent and you knew you had to do it on

3203
02:17:29,640 --> 02:17:30,320
Speaker 4: special teams?

3204
02:17:30,360 --> 02:17:32,760
Speaker 17: Probably, right, Yeah, That's what I always say. Everything happens

3205
02:17:32,760 --> 02:17:34,640
Speaker 17: for a reason. So I think part of, you know,

3206
02:17:34,879 --> 02:17:37,320
Speaker 17: of the journey was going to the military school. And

3207
02:17:37,320 --> 02:17:41,080
Speaker 17: then once I get to you know, Miami, I'm undrafted. Guys,

3208
02:17:41,080 --> 02:17:44,240
Speaker 17: there's four undrafted linebackers in there, and they have to

3209
02:17:44,560 --> 02:17:46,920
Speaker 17: make a decision on who they're going to keep, and

3210
02:17:46,920 --> 02:17:48,800
Speaker 17: they end up keeping I think two of us, two

3211
02:17:48,879 --> 02:17:52,280
Speaker 17: or three of us on that year for special teams

3212
02:17:52,280 --> 02:17:54,360
Speaker 17: and end up you know, getting opportunity to start a

3213
02:17:54,360 --> 02:17:57,160
Speaker 17: few games that year. So that was great for my career.

3214
02:17:57,280 --> 02:17:59,600
Speaker 1: Okay, so this week, Indianapolis Colts.

3215
02:18:00,160 --> 02:18:02,360
Speaker 2: You've been around the Texans long enough to know that

3216
02:18:02,440 --> 02:18:04,880
Speaker 2: we don't like the Colts market in particular, Mike Mark

3217
02:18:04,920 --> 02:18:05,680
Speaker 2: hates the Colts.

3218
02:18:05,680 --> 02:18:08,520
Speaker 3: The Colts. We hate the Colts like poison sports hate.

3219
02:18:08,680 --> 02:18:09,800
Speaker 3: It's a good, healthy hate.

3220
02:18:09,840 --> 02:18:13,080
Speaker 2: So this week it's Anthony Richardson, It's Jonathan Taylor, it's

3221
02:18:13,120 --> 02:18:15,120
Speaker 2: the Colts again, back here never What are some of

3222
02:18:15,160 --> 02:18:15,880
Speaker 2: the keys this week?

3223
02:18:15,879 --> 02:18:16,720
Speaker 1: And going against them?

3224
02:18:17,080 --> 02:18:20,080
Speaker 17: They're a great team, great coach team, you know they

3225
02:18:20,360 --> 02:18:22,600
Speaker 17: We always have a good fight going against them. So

3226
02:18:22,640 --> 02:18:24,200
Speaker 17: it's going to come down to us, you know, our

3227
02:18:24,240 --> 02:18:29,240
Speaker 17: relentless strain, you know, our discipline and playing our keys

3228
02:18:29,320 --> 02:18:32,320
Speaker 17: and doing our technique and if everybody does their job,

3229
02:18:32,360 --> 02:18:33,840
Speaker 17: we should re'll like the outcome.

3230
02:18:34,040 --> 02:18:34,400
Speaker 6: All right.

3231
02:18:34,440 --> 02:18:36,080
Speaker 4: So we're not going to talk about the Jet game,

3232
02:18:36,120 --> 02:18:38,120
Speaker 4: which is the one after, because we will not look ahead.

3233
02:18:38,160 --> 02:18:39,920
Speaker 4: But I want to ask you this question though, because

3234
02:18:40,040 --> 02:18:42,560
Speaker 4: you were with the Dolphins then the Jets. So you

3235
02:18:42,640 --> 02:18:45,160
Speaker 4: face the Dolphins as a Jet, you face the Jets

3236
02:18:45,240 --> 02:18:47,320
Speaker 4: last year as a Texan, and you were with us

3237
02:18:47,360 --> 02:18:49,880
Speaker 4: in twenty one, right, So all right, we saw the

3238
02:18:49,959 --> 02:18:52,360
Speaker 4: Jets then with Zach Wilson. So what is it like

3239
02:18:52,400 --> 02:18:54,800
Speaker 4: when you play a team that you used to play for?

3240
02:18:54,879 --> 02:18:56,560
Speaker 4: What is the Jets, like because I know we have

3241
02:18:56,560 --> 02:18:58,520
Speaker 4: a couple of former Colts at the very least here.

3242
02:18:58,640 --> 02:19:02,200
Speaker 17: Yes, yeah, I give you a you know, I say

3243
02:19:02,280 --> 02:19:03,320
Speaker 17: that for next.

3244
02:19:03,080 --> 02:19:05,959
Speaker 6: Week general.

3245
02:19:07,320 --> 02:19:12,400
Speaker 17: In general, I mean yeah, you know you look forward

3246
02:19:12,400 --> 02:19:14,040
Speaker 17: to the game, but you know, just like every week

3247
02:19:14,160 --> 02:19:16,080
Speaker 17: is you know, it's another opponent and you got to

3248
02:19:16,080 --> 02:19:19,240
Speaker 17: put out your best your best performance and right every week.

3249
02:19:19,400 --> 02:19:21,400
Speaker 2: What do you think thus far five and two kind

3250
02:19:21,400 --> 02:19:24,560
Speaker 2: of overall, just your thoughts about where the team is Neville,

3251
02:19:24,640 --> 02:19:26,840
Speaker 2: as you head into this Indianapolis Colts game, what do

3252
02:19:26,840 --> 02:19:28,600
Speaker 2: you kind of think overall about where the team is

3253
02:19:28,800 --> 02:19:31,000
Speaker 2: and what maybe you'd like them to be going forward.

3254
02:19:31,879 --> 02:19:34,200
Speaker 17: I mean, we're in a good spot. I think we

3255
02:19:34,320 --> 02:19:36,760
Speaker 17: just continue to keep on cleaning up the stuff that

3256
02:19:36,879 --> 02:19:39,320
Speaker 17: we messed up and fix our mistakes and you know,

3257
02:19:39,400 --> 02:19:42,000
Speaker 17: really learn from them. But we continue to do that

3258
02:19:42,040 --> 02:19:44,119
Speaker 17: and continue to grow. As the season go, we'll continue

3259
02:19:44,120 --> 02:19:46,200
Speaker 17: to get better. Things are going to come up and

3260
02:19:46,320 --> 02:19:48,160
Speaker 17: you know we just have to correct them. Once we

3261
02:19:48,200 --> 02:19:49,720
Speaker 17: correct them, we'll be fine.

3262
02:19:50,080 --> 02:19:52,440
Speaker 4: Is it so different because we said you were with

3263
02:19:52,520 --> 02:19:54,320
Speaker 4: us in twenty one, you have a different coach in

3264
02:19:54,400 --> 02:19:58,120
Speaker 4: twenty two, but you're still here. Then Jamiko Ryan's first year,

3265
02:19:58,160 --> 02:20:00,960
Speaker 4: you guys are on the rise and exciting things happening,

3266
02:20:00,959 --> 02:20:03,280
Speaker 4: making the postseason, winning a playoff game this year, a

3267
02:20:03,320 --> 02:20:05,680
Speaker 4: lot of big expectations. And as Johnny said, you know

3268
02:20:05,760 --> 02:20:08,720
Speaker 4: five and two, is that so strange to have such

3269
02:20:08,760 --> 02:20:11,680
Speaker 4: a different setting every year you're with the Houston Texans.

3270
02:20:12,000 --> 02:20:13,600
Speaker 17: I mean, it's part of it. I mean when she

3271
02:20:14,400 --> 02:20:17,080
Speaker 17: when I got here, it was twenty one, and you know,

3272
02:20:17,120 --> 02:20:18,680
Speaker 17: we just had a new coach, and then I think

3273
02:20:18,720 --> 02:20:22,600
Speaker 17: twenty two, I had another new coach and yeah, yeah there,

3274
02:20:23,000 --> 02:20:25,879
Speaker 17: but you know, we you know, the organization is doing

3275
02:20:25,920 --> 02:20:28,840
Speaker 17: a great job bringing the right people in and everybody

3276
02:20:28,879 --> 02:20:31,039
Speaker 17: is just buying in. And that's what it takes for

3277
02:20:31,080 --> 02:20:34,360
Speaker 17: any organization. Everybody buys in and does their role to

3278
02:20:34,440 --> 02:20:36,760
Speaker 17: the best of their ability. We'll get great result.

3279
02:20:36,800 --> 02:20:37,080
Speaker 5: All right.

3280
02:20:37,120 --> 02:20:39,480
Speaker 4: So, friends back home or wherever you used to live,

3281
02:20:39,520 --> 02:20:43,320
Speaker 4: wherever that might be, whether it's New Jersey, Miami, they say, hey,

3282
02:20:43,320 --> 02:20:45,240
Speaker 4: what's Houston like? What is Houston like?

3283
02:20:45,280 --> 02:20:45,640
Speaker 3: Neville?

3284
02:20:45,680 --> 02:20:47,880
Speaker 4: You've been here for four years now, four seasons. What

3285
02:20:47,920 --> 02:20:49,080
Speaker 4: is Houston like? What do you tell them?

3286
02:20:49,200 --> 02:20:51,959
Speaker 17: I was a huge good food depending on what time

3287
02:20:52,000 --> 02:20:53,760
Speaker 17: of the year, I mean, it's gonna be it's gonna

3288
02:20:53,800 --> 02:20:57,520
Speaker 17: be really hot, so you probably won't need the jacket.

3289
02:20:58,160 --> 02:21:00,520
Speaker 17: So I'm just telling me you pretty much go anywhere,

3290
02:21:00,560 --> 02:21:02,680
Speaker 17: man and find a good meal, depending on what you're

3291
02:21:02,680 --> 02:21:03,080
Speaker 17: looking for.

3292
02:21:03,320 --> 02:21:03,560
Speaker 5: Yeah.

3293
02:21:03,680 --> 02:21:05,520
Speaker 2: Now, we talked about this a little bit back in

3294
02:21:06,320 --> 02:21:08,560
Speaker 2: training camp, and now we're seven games in and then

3295
02:21:08,600 --> 02:21:10,040
Speaker 2: some preseason games as well.

3296
02:21:10,240 --> 02:21:11,520
Speaker 1: How do you like the new kickoff rules?

3297
02:21:11,560 --> 02:21:14,600
Speaker 2: I mean, haven't been as many returns, but you guys

3298
02:21:14,600 --> 02:21:17,959
Speaker 2: have forced a few more returns lately and it's really

3299
02:21:18,040 --> 02:21:20,280
Speaker 2: kind of showing off our you know, special teams.

3300
02:21:21,160 --> 02:21:22,920
Speaker 1: How good we've been on special teams. But how do

3301
02:21:22,959 --> 02:21:23,320
Speaker 1: you like them?

3302
02:21:23,360 --> 02:21:24,680
Speaker 2: I know one of the things you talked about with

3303
02:21:24,720 --> 02:21:26,680
Speaker 2: me was you thought there might be a lot more

3304
02:21:26,680 --> 02:21:29,280
Speaker 2: punch outs because guys, it happens so fast.

3305
02:21:29,520 --> 02:21:32,039
Speaker 17: How do you like the new kickoff rules? I really

3306
02:21:32,280 --> 02:21:35,720
Speaker 17: me personally, I don't like it. But I mean the

3307
02:21:35,720 --> 02:21:37,440
Speaker 17: way the league is you got to you gotta adapt,

3308
02:21:37,480 --> 02:21:39,280
Speaker 17: is adapt to die type of thing. You know, just

3309
02:21:39,320 --> 02:21:41,520
Speaker 17: like you. You can't do certain hits anymore, you know

3310
02:21:41,520 --> 02:21:43,840
Speaker 17: what I'm saying. You can't tackle a quarterback of laying

3311
02:21:43,879 --> 02:21:45,400
Speaker 17: on them. So it's either you know, you just have

3312
02:21:45,440 --> 02:21:47,160
Speaker 17: to adapt with the league. And that's how you end

3313
02:21:47,200 --> 02:21:49,200
Speaker 17: up staying around. If you can't adapt, you can find

3314
02:21:49,200 --> 02:21:50,400
Speaker 17: yourself out of it, all.

3315
02:21:50,400 --> 02:21:52,560
