1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,640 Speaker 1: Hey, welcome in everybody to a victory Monday. A nation 2 00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:08,119 Speaker 1: of Texans, all acts as signed your host John Harris. 3 00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:10,600 Speaker 1: And yes, this is the first victory Monday we have 4 00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:17,800 Speaker 1: done since the Monday after Thanksgiving. That's a long time ago. 5 00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 1: Think of all that's happened since. But yeah, victory Monday, 6 00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 1: thirty seven twenty one winners over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Step 7 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 1: one in a long season. But I'll tell you this, 8 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:36,200 Speaker 1: and I've listened read most everything has been positive, except 9 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,839 Speaker 1: for one article in particular. But that's okay because the 10 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:43,960 Speaker 1: people that were in NRG Stadium on Sunday sureley enjoyed themselves. 11 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:46,520 Speaker 1: I'm sure a lot of people were pretty surprised from 12 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:48,520 Speaker 1: all they had read and heard in the soft season. 13 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,879 Speaker 1: They're like, oh man, they get in, they get in 14 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 1: that building and they see a team that's organized, structured, 15 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: executed extremely well, had some exposive pieces shared, the football 16 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:05,319 Speaker 1: physically dominated up front. It's it was so refreshing to 17 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: watch a well coached, well oiled machine. Yes, some veterans 18 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 1: so what some young guys contributed. Nico had a catch. 19 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 1: I almost came up with the catch of the day 20 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: in the end zone. Veterans that have been around for 21 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 1: a long time contributed, mark ingram veterans that have been 22 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: in Houston for a day, seemingly Danny am Mandola touchdown. 23 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 1: I mean, it was contributions from everywhere, and that's what 24 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: I think made Sunday really really cool. One of those 25 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 1: guys that had a tremendous day, a guy has been 26 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 1: around since by mid season last year. It was a 27 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 1: guy that I loved, loved, loved at Oregon. I thought 28 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: he had a massive future at Oregon heading to the NFL, 29 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: and then he had a catastrophic knee injury. I mean, 30 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: just horrific, and he's fought his way back, and he's 31 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 1: fought his way back. He's seemingly found at home here 32 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: and he was and he had a fantastic day on 33 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Look, his blocking was outstanding, 34 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 1: but he also came up with four catches for sixty 35 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 1: seven yards, including the one hander blitz zero Tyrod saw it, 36 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: threw it down the middle of the field and he 37 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: found our guy Fararell Brown, and I found Pharaoh Brown 38 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: after the game out in the service level. We had 39 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: a little conversation. If you will he's an exclusive one 40 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: on one with Farrell Brown. Oh, man, I've been waiting 41 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 1: for this interview. This was one of my favorite players 42 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: back when he was in college before an injury kind 43 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: of slowed him down. But he is back to one 44 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 1: hundred percent seeming. Now that's Farrell Brown. First of all, 45 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 1: Farrell Hell football game. How's it feel to gonna win? Man? 46 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: It feels good to get a win. We've been waiting 47 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: all off season, the big going against each other. Finally 48 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: get an opponent out there that's not our defense, and 49 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: it just feels amazing. All Right, I'm gonna get to 50 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 1: the blocking the second because that, to me, was the 51 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: most important part of the day. But that catch, is 52 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: that one of the best ones you've made? Uh? Yeah, 53 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: that's probably one of the best ones I made at 54 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 1: this level. I wish I would have kind of got 55 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: out of their score, but it was it was pretty close. 56 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: It was a good throw about ty Rode, and uh, 57 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: I was able to use my long arms. Did you 58 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: see him getting pressured back there and you just knew 59 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 1: you had to getting back up because he got heat 60 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 1: pretty quickly. I did, Manu. Ty Rode kind of shot 61 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 1: so for a lot of time. I run a lot 62 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: of routing. I can't see him. You just kind of 63 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: be like looking and did you just see the ball 64 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: come out? And I didn't see him. I just seeing 65 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: the ball come out and just ran under it. You 66 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 1: do such a great job in the blocking game, whether 67 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: it's as in line, why move, whatever you're doing, running 68 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: spots on, whatever you do. Where does that come from? 69 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: That pride to really put a guy in his backside, 70 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: because that's what you're trying to do. See me, then everybody? 71 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: Where's that come from? That blocking pavilion? Desire to knock 72 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: somebody in the stands like you did their line? Docker? Uh? 73 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 1: I mean, you just want to pose your will on people. 74 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: That's why you played football. I was always an aggressive kid, 75 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: and that's just how we played football growing up. And 76 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: that's what you want to do from all the ways, 77 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: from like the Nutcracker Jail was always putting people down, 78 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: you know, all the old stuff. But I think it's 79 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: just a mindset kind of thing, and I have fun 80 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: doing it. You guys set out at some point to 81 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: just hey, we're gonna be the most physical offense. We're 82 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 1: gonna be physical at the point of attack, regardless of 83 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: what happens, we are physically gonna take games of Yeah. 84 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 1: I said earlier in the week that we wanted to 85 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 1: be the hammer and we want to impose our wheel, 86 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: and we showed that today. I haven't seen any stats, 87 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: but I think we had at least one hundred fifty 88 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: rushing yards and that's hard to do it at this level. 89 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: So I think that's what we want to come out 90 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: and do every every game. It's the pose are wheel, 91 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 1: play physical, and just dominate our opponent. I know it's 92 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: a bad moment to bring up, but it's going to 93 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: prove my point. Vincent Taylor went down with the injury 94 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: and I hate seeing that. But one thing I noticed 95 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: was every single player came off the sideline to go 96 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: greet him. It feels like there's a camaraderie with this bunch, 97 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 1: and maybe it wasn't here in years past that you 98 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 1: sense that as a player on this team, the camaraderie 99 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: and that bond is there for sure. I mean, we 100 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: had a hell of a training camp, one of the 101 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 1: toughest training camps I've been in partner. I think when 102 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: you grinding with people like that, even though we're all new, 103 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: you know through adversity, you become closer, and I think 104 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 1: the coaches was able to cinimlate that and put it 105 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: in some adverse situations through camp. We've becoming closer and 106 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: closer every week, every day, and that just goes to show. 107 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,919 Speaker 1: But I mean, we got a great team. I'd be 108 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: remiss if I didn't follow up. Let's find the one 109 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 1: we all saw. It happened to Columbus Yesterye, how does 110 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 1: that feel? Oh man? That was awesome. They being from Cleveland. 111 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 1: I got so much junk from when they beat us 112 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 1: in the Nason the Championship to go to the horse 113 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: Shoe and uh dominate them guys. How they did on 114 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 1: the ground. You know, the Big Ten always proud of 115 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: itself and being physical, and you know the Pac twelve 116 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: ord and came over there and showed everybody that you know, 117 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 1: we're physical too. So it was awesome to watch and 118 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: see Farrell congratulations on a heck of wom My man, 119 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 1: thank you, thank you. I appreciate it. You know, I 120 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 1: had to get some Oregon ducks talking there with my 121 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: man Farrell Brown, especially a guy from Ohio who's had 122 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: to listen to Buck Eye this and Buck Eye that. Well, 123 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 1: how about Duck this Buckeyes fans man, The Ducks were 124 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: awesome and Farrell Brown was awesome on Sunday. Also awesome 125 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: on Sunday is my man Andre Ware, who I get 126 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: a chance to hang with each and every Sunday. Man. 127 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: We had a really good chat with him, talking about 128 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 1: this game, college football, everything, and some outstanding movie analogies. 129 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 1: Right now, Dre a day later, what is your gut reaction, 130 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 1: as Johnny would say, to what you saw yesterday at 131 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 1: at Archie Stadium? Well, I would say surprised, only because 132 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: of the dominance in which the Texans displayed yesterday and 133 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 1: winning the game. I thought it would be a much 134 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: closer game, but after about the third possession, they just 135 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 1: they just dominated the games and all the game in 136 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 1: all three phases, really offensively. When you look at thirty 137 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: seven points, didn't expect that it was. We didn't really 138 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: know what to expect. Who would run the ball, who 139 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: would be the primary ball carrier, how they would use 140 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: the five running backs because we did at that time, 141 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: we didn't know Scottie Phillips was going to be up 142 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: or down. But you know, just the with just the 143 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: dominance in which the team displayed was was very, very impressive. 144 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: I thought they were well coached as well coached the 145 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: team as I've seen in the first game and maybe 146 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: the twenty years we've been doing this, So it was impressive. Dre. 147 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 1: We have talked about any number of things this morning 148 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: about offensive players and coach Culley and a lot of things. 149 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: But Tim Kelly, I thought called painted on going to 150 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 1: say a masterpiece, but I thought he painted one heck 151 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: of a painting yesterday with the way that he shrunk 152 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: things together. Mark and I talked about the Farrell Brown 153 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: catch followed up by the wildcat. What did you think 154 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: of the way that Timmy called plays yesterday and kinds 155 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: of strunk things together for that offense. Yeah, I thought 156 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: he did an excellent job. And from the standpoint of 157 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: knowing personnel, that's that's half of it. Are over more 158 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: than half of it plays or plays, playbooks or playbooks. 159 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: But I think a coach's job is to figure out 160 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: who can do what and where can he best help 161 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: us within what we do offensively, and that's that you 162 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: spend a great deal of time as a coach trying 163 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: to figure figure those things out. Well, they figured out 164 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: what Brandon Cooks can do. They figured out what Chris 165 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 1: Connelly can add to this Tim Kelly offense. They figured 166 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: out what mark Ingram and Philip Lindsay is along with 167 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 1: Farrell Brown. And I thought the offensive line was right 168 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: smack in the middle of it. And the way they 169 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: played yesterday, the way they opened up holes for this 170 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: group of running backs and protected to Rod Taylor. It 171 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: was a thing of beauty for Tim really to just 172 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,839 Speaker 1: call plays understanding who's going to get the ball and 173 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,199 Speaker 1: what situations and who's best suited for doing that. And 174 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: I think that showed all throughout the game. How about 175 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 1: Taylor's performance, Drey, he throws a couple of touchdown passes, 176 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: but more importantly doesn't turn it over. You know, people 177 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 1: have called him a game manager. Well, he looked like 178 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 1: he was making a lot of plays yesterday for a manager. 179 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,079 Speaker 1: That throw to Farrell Brown. He had a lot of 180 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: nice moments. Well, those who use that term in I 181 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: don't know if it's a derogatory way or a slight 182 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: but they don't really know football. Because every quarterback better 183 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,959 Speaker 1: be a game manager. You better understand the situations, you 184 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: better be able to third and four. We're not trying 185 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 1: to go downtown. We're trying to pick up a first 186 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: down and keep the change moving. Though. Every quarterback needs 187 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,439 Speaker 1: to be a game changer. John Elway, I mean a 188 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 1: game manager. Get John Elway was that way, Warm Moons 189 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: that way. Every single one of them knows their roles 190 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,719 Speaker 1: and what situations are. So, yeah, you get your gun 191 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,439 Speaker 1: slinger to go out there and throw it around the park. 192 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: He's gonna throw a bunch of interceptions if he doesn't 193 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: know how to manage a game. But I thought Tarrod 194 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: Taylor played with amendous amount of poise. He was calm, 195 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 1: He knew exactly where to go with the football, especially 196 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 1: when Jacksonville decided to heat him up. The hot routes 197 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: were banned, he was, they were out, The ball was 198 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,719 Speaker 1: out on time catchable balls. The one that he threw 199 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 1: over the top to Farrell Brown had tremendous touch where 200 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 1: he just put it in the air and let Farrell 201 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: Brown run under it. It was a thing of beauty. 202 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: I don't I don't know that I'm gonna say it 203 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: was his best game. But the boy, he said, looked 204 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: composed it and in doing it. Joan know a guy 205 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: that Mark and I we talked about this before the show, 206 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: and it was eighty five yards and yes it was 207 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: a one rushing touchdown, but there just feels like there's 208 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 1: so much more impact from mark Ingram. Uh your heisman, pal, 209 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,959 Speaker 1: and I just you know, there was some talk when 210 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,679 Speaker 1: Baltimore was having all those those injuries at the running 211 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 1: back position, Oh you know, hey give up a six, 212 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,319 Speaker 1: let him have mark Ingram, etc. He's one guy of 213 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: any I want in this locker room twenty four seven, 214 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: three sixty five. There's such an impact from him, Drey, 215 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: What did you see it from him on the field 216 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: and what do you think the impact of him is 217 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: off the field in the locker room. Yeah. I think 218 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:13,959 Speaker 1: that's where a lot of people miss the boat in 219 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: terms of how important a guy is to building team chemistry, 220 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: chemistry within the locker room. Marx brings a lot of 221 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 1: energy and a lot of juice every day, and that's 222 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: simply because he just loves the game. He loves to compete, 223 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: he loves to play, and I think you see that 224 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 1: in each and every run, each and every time he 225 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 1: touches the football, whether it's through the air or a handoff. 226 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: But I was afraid that was going to happen as 227 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 1: well when when Gus Edwards went down that Baltimore would 228 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: make a call for Mark. But luckily for us, he's 229 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: here contributed in a big way, and I think some 230 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 1: of his best football is still ahead of him. So 231 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: that thing about the age of thirty and being a 232 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: running backs, watched that with this guy. Because he's so 233 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,839 Speaker 1: passionate about what he does. Know, he's gonna come in 234 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,599 Speaker 1: in tremendous shape. You know, he's gonna know what to 235 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: do on each and every assignment, how to protect the 236 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: quarterback and when you hand him the ball. I said 237 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: it yesterday, numerous amounts of times during the ball game 238 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 1: that the pile goes forward when Mark Ingram has the 239 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: ball in his hands. Boy, this is one of those 240 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,079 Speaker 1: situations where I'd love to know who's called nick. You know, 241 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 1: the deals that don't get made and things like that, 242 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: Because I'm with you. I was a little concerned about 243 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: that because I thought, all right, it's great if you 244 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: can get something for a player or something of value, 245 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: Yet that's for the future and right now. Look, I 246 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: just started the movie and I like the way the 247 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: movie got going, and I want to see the movie 248 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: a little more before I start making those kinds of decisions, 249 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Mark Ingram is real important 250 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: to this football team on the field, off the field, 251 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,719 Speaker 1: all over the place, and I want to see him 252 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: continue with this bunch where it's kind of like along 253 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 1: that analogy you use is you haven't seen the movie, 254 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: but a lot of people keep telling you that they've 255 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 1: seen it and it's not going to be a good movie. 256 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying that it's it's the worst 257 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 1: I've ever seen, so on and so forth, and then 258 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the movie starts, Man, this is 259 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: really not that bad, got some action to it. It 260 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 1: kind of vibes with my way of seeing seeing movies 261 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 1: or how I like to see him. I got I'm 262 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: with you. I gotta see more of this and and uh, 263 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 1: I think it's a tribute to coach Cully and his 264 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 1: organizational skills the staff. Um, it's a well coached football team. 265 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,559 Speaker 1: And when you have that, Yeah, you may not have 266 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 1: the star power that a lot of teams have, but 267 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: you have team chemistry and you have good coaching and 268 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: that's gonna give you a chance to win games every singles, 269 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:41,199 Speaker 1: every single weekend. I'm so mad at you two because 270 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: both y'all just came up with the best analogy of 271 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,439 Speaker 1: the day. And I'm like, no, man, that's what I 272 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: come up with the analogy. Man, I give him credit. 273 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 1: He started, Yeah he did, but you took it down 274 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: that road too and did did pretty well. Somebody would 275 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: have dropped the rotten tomatoes in there would have been 276 00:13:55,840 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 1: even better. That said. I think we I mean, you've 277 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: hit all on the reasons the Texans end up winning 278 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: that game, but I think the one that we maybe 279 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: have glossed over a little bit are the heavies, the 280 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 1: big dudes up front. Offensively, the mix of Marcus Cannon 281 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: and JERONN. Christian was it was obviously more Marcus than 282 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: it was Jeronn. Christian, but Christian came in and did 283 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 1: some good things the right tackle as well, and then 284 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 1: also on the defensive side, Trevor never got comfortable, it seemed, 285 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: with the four man rush and there wasn't exotic stuff. 286 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: What did you think overall as you're driving home thinking 287 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: about the game and you were thinking about how it 288 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: came to be, what do you think about the big 289 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: fellows on both sides of the ball and establishing the 290 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 1: physical aspect of the game. Well, when you don't talk 291 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 1: about him a whole lot, that's a good thing because 292 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: you know, penalties aren't happening, or you know, busted assignments 293 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: or there are you know, runaway guys breathing down the 294 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 1: neck of your quarterback. And so that's just from the 295 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: offensive side of it. So I thought Justin Bridge stood 296 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: out yesterday and the way he played. And once again 297 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 1: credit to the coaches for managing the time for Marcus 298 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: Cannon because he missed all the camp. You know, he 299 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 1: didn't take one rep, but they figured he was ready 300 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: to go in the first game. But we need to 301 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 1: manage it. So Christian comes in and does a heck 302 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: of a job there. That's that's coaching, fellas, knowing if 303 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: a guy can go all of a sudden, you push 304 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: him out there and you expect him to play every down, 305 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: every snap, and he gets himself hurt again and there's 306 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: a setback. Well, if you can manage him, you can 307 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: utilize him, know when to bring injer On and give 308 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: him a spell here, and they're getting back out there. 309 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 1: You manage him to a point where in a couple 310 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: of weeks he's going every snap and you're better because 311 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: of it. So that's one thing. And then on the 312 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 1: defensive side of it, just a job that Love he's 313 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: done and putting these guys in position to succeed. There 314 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 1: aren't any big names on this defense, there aren't any 315 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: show stoppers, but they just played. And the impressive part 316 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: of that is they've taken what was done in the 317 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 1: preseason where you're thinking, well, the pack didn't play thirty players, 318 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers didn't play, and then you know against Tamwell 319 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 1: was you know, a mix of this, that and the other. 320 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 1: And against the Cowboys dak and and Ezekiel Elliott didn't 321 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: play well. All of a sudden, the pass rush shows up, 322 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 1: the turnovers happened, and you guys have heard me say 323 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: it tremendous amount of time. Sometimes it's not about the 324 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 1: one sack that you have in a game. Oh, we 325 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 1: need to get more sacks. No, you don't. You need 326 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 1: the pressure to force quarterbacks to make mistakes, which is 327 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 1: exactly what Trevor Lawrence did and it resulted in three interceptions. 328 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: Would you rather have the sack or would you have 329 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: to rather have the pressure and the interceptions and the 330 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: ball back? I take the ladder. That's what Love. He's like, look, 331 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: you can go go to sack, but that's selfish. If 332 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: you go to sack, go get the football too, you know. 333 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: If you got your football. Yeah, you know, that's that's 334 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 1: for the team. You get the sack, that's for you. 335 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: That's for you. So I thought it was pretty interesting 336 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 1: because Jacob Bartin told me that in Dallas. He was like, 337 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: coach Love, you tells us that, and that's right, go 338 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 1: get the football. And one of the one of the 339 00:16:55,920 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: interesting moments you I think, Dre you caught it. It 340 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 1: was I don't remember what part of the game, but 341 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 1: one of the Jackson receivers caught a pass over the 342 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,439 Speaker 1: middle and he was on the ground. I think it's 343 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 1: Marbat Jones. He's on the ground and Kama gruzier Hill 344 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: didn't go over and tap him down. He went to 345 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:16,360 Speaker 1: go punch the ball out. Yeah he almost. He almost 346 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 1: got it. And I was like, that's the impact of 347 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 1: a coach emphasizing takeaways and turnovers. That right there, because 348 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: the natural inclination is touch him down, plays over instead, 349 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 1: gruzier Hill stands over him, is waiting for him to 350 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: make a mistake. He's waiting for him to get up 351 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 1: and he punched at it and he almost got it 352 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: out of there. And at some point that's gonna happen. 353 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: He's gonna get one out of it well, and that's 354 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 1: what they're coach to do. So you start looking at it. 355 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: A lot of them are taking that swipe at the ball, 356 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:47,880 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, the ball's finding its way 357 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 1: onto the turf and into the hands of the defense. So, UM, 358 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 1: I just think that the coaching no slight to anybody else, 359 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 1: but the coaching is what separates this bunch. Um. I 360 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 1: don't know that anybody anywhere had them scoring the amount 361 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 1: of points they hadn't been and then limiting Jacksonville to 362 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 1: essentially fourteen point There were a couple of h I 363 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: would say, I don't know, gimmes at the end of 364 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: the game where they where Trevor Lawrence is able to 365 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 1: get it down the field. But it was a It 366 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 1: was an impressive performance in all three phases, and I 367 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 1: think a big, big credit goes to this coaching staff 368 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 1: for having this bunch prepared well. They'll need to prepare 369 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: very well for this Sunday. At Cleveland, the Browns had 370 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 1: some things going on yesterday at Kansas City, but made 371 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 1: the fatal mistakes relative to the game dre the drop 372 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: punt turnovers just didn't help themselves. And the Chiefs will 373 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 1: rip your heart out and show it to you if 374 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,640 Speaker 1: you make mistakes like that. We've seen it up close. 375 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: They'll eat it. They'll eat it in front of you. 376 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 1: If why you're still clinging to life, man, But I 377 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 1: mean you, how many times have you heard me say, Mark, 378 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,679 Speaker 1: don't put the ball in the kicker punter's hands when 379 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 1: the games on the line. Yeah, you're trying to score. 380 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 1: You have to be aggressive. Forget running out the clock 381 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: or whatever it is that you're trying to do. Stay 382 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 1: aggressive in the second half. That's what I was saying 383 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 1: yesterday at about the Texans as well. When you're up 384 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: on a team, I just I'm in a belief that 385 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: we could shake hands and still be friends after. But 386 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,680 Speaker 1: I may put fifty on you today. So I'm gonna 387 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: continue to play the game like we started in the 388 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,200 Speaker 1: first quarter, because there are how many times have we 389 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 1: seen all these comebacks and things of that sort. So 390 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: when you let your foot off against Hey, We're gonna 391 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 1: run it and manage to clock kill some clock on 392 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: this drug. No, it's the wrong philosophy. I think it 393 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 1: happened to Cleveland yesterday and they paid a heavy price 394 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 1: for it, along with upon or fumbling a snap Drake. Granted, 395 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 1: we're not in Chicago. We haven't seen any Chicago Bears 396 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 1: other than the three preseason games that we probably saw 397 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: a little bit of. But it's more philosophical. When does 398 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: Justin Fields have to take over for the Bears? Oh? Man, 399 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 1: I laugh because you know, you guys know exactly how 400 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: I feel about that thing. Um. Yeah, you know, if 401 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,119 Speaker 1: if a quarterback is gonna get killed, then Andy Dalton 402 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: would have gotten that yesterday. And it's like we're protecting 403 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 1: him from the Rams defense. Well, he's a little better 404 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 1: equipped to escape harm's way than Andy Dalton is. And 405 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,679 Speaker 1: I just feel like, honestly, I'll just be flat out 406 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 1: transparent with you. I think Naggie is holding him for 407 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,719 Speaker 1: job security and the way Jeff Fisher used to do quarterbacks, 408 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: and you know, you just you have a guy, you 409 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,239 Speaker 1: put him in your back pocket. Everybody wants to see him. 410 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 1: The longer you keep him back there, the longer you 411 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 1: keep your job. And then it's like, well, we're ready 412 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: to go with Justin Now, well, he may ask her 413 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: una do that too long, whole thinking that he's gonna 414 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 1: buy some more time with Justin Fields as he develops 415 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,479 Speaker 1: that he's not the coach coaching Justin Fields next year, 416 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,920 Speaker 1: So give yourself a chance to win games. I think 417 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: the young man's ready. I think he proved it through 418 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 1: the preseason. Yeah, he's gonna there's gonna be some bumps 419 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 1: and bruises, but the only way to learn at that 420 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: position is on the field. And so taking those bumps 421 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: and bruises, coming back seeing the film and knowing where 422 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: to improve from, and you improve from week to week, 423 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 1: and uh, you know a couple of weeks into the 424 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 1: season that you're you're firing on all cylinders. But you 425 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 1: don't learn anything by sitting down holding a pit. He 426 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 1: looked absolutely miserable on the sideline yesterday, having gone in, 427 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: scored and then have to come back out and not 428 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 1: go in again. That he looked absolutely miserable. When you 429 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,679 Speaker 1: when you see a guy tugging on his shoulder pads 430 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 1: that that is trying, that's a woo saw from the 431 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 1: movie Bad Boys for a quarterback, that he he is 432 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:44,680 Speaker 1: ticked off, that he's not on the field, trust me. Well, yeah, 433 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 1: we dropped some good movie references. Absolutely. If Dan Fouts, 434 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: by the way, told me, and this is a Week three, 435 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, you know how your rookie quarterback needs to play. 436 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:58,880 Speaker 1: If he's a highly touted first round kind of guy, 437 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: he needs to play. He said, if if you weren't 438 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 1: doing what you're doing, would you get any better at 439 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: what you do? And I thought that does make some sense. 440 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 1: You know, you have to have the chance to do it. 441 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 1: And look at them, it's not like they're gonna set 442 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: the world on fire. If Dalton is lighting it up 443 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 1: and you're winning, okay, you don't hold off for a 444 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 1: while anyway, Drake your thoughts on Tennessee and Arizona. Yesterday 445 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: in Nashville, the Cardinals take them apart. That game was 446 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 1: going on while we were watching and broadcasting our game, 447 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 1: But your thoughts. The defense was always going to be 448 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 1: a question mark in Tennessee. They've got a bunch of 449 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 1: tremendous athletes and skill position players on the offensive side, 450 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: but defensively, that's where it's It's been a concern for 451 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 1: a couple of years. And when you play a high 452 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 1: powered offense like Arizona can bring to town. I don't 453 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 1: know that I'm all that surprised after assessing it and 454 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 1: looking looking through it. But you know, once they jump 455 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: you now the pressures on Tennessee to get away from 456 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 1: what they're used to doing, which is pounding Derrick Henry 457 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: at you over and over again. And you find yourself 458 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:07,639 Speaker 1: down in a ballgame like that a couple of scores, 459 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: you gotta abandon it and start throwing it around. That's 460 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:13,159 Speaker 1: not what they're built for. Even though they added Julio 461 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 1: Jones and A J. Brown on the outside, it's just 462 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: not what they are. You know. They want to throw 463 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: when they want to throw, and not when they have 464 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,639 Speaker 1: they're forced to have to throw. And it was a 465 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: surprise um there. Indianapolis might have surprised me a little 466 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: bit more, but Carson Wentz didn't get a whole lot 467 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 1: of work this preseason. I think it's showing now and 468 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,120 Speaker 1: and I've told you, I think the young kid might 469 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: be better long term than than what they gave up 470 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 1: for with Carson Wentz. Oh Man, Holy season. By the way, 471 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 1: sad Ybel Yes, sad Vrabel on the sideline, I'll pay 472 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:54,120 Speaker 1: money for every books.

Appreciate him doing that. It's good stuff, It's 496 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,640 Speaker 1: great stuff. And I know Coach Culley will not say publicly, 497 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 1: He'll never say publicly, but I know that had to 498 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 1: mean a lot to him. I since said after the 499 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 1: game when I talked to him and our post game 500 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 1: a little one on one, I gonna tell he mentioned 501 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 1: his dad, his mom, and I could I started getting 502 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 1: choked up. I thought it was really really cool. You 503 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 1: get victory number one, love it. Hopefully there are many 504 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 1: many more twenty twenty one and beyond s guitar, good 505 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 1: friend the General. We had plenty to talk about with 506 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: the General. He predicted a Texans win. Now he has 507 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 1: thought it's not gonna be all that pretty after but 508 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 1: you predict predicted a Texans win. I give him credit 509 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 1: for that, and we chatted with him about all of it. John, 510 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 1: So what were your thoughts following the game and a 511 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 1: day later, there were two people I was the most 512 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: excited for to see the Texans win this game and 513 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 1: score more points in the first game in any time 514 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 1: in history. David Culley, who waited twenty seven years to 515 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: be a head coach and as fine a man as 516 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: I've ever met to get that first win. Such a 517 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:26,199 Speaker 1: class guy. Can you imagine how many tags and calls 518 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 1: and emails he's gotten after that victory from his friends 519 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 1: around the league when you think about all the places 520 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 1: he's been seeing the Texans on top of the FC 521 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 1: South after the Cults and Titans got beat at home 522 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 1: as strange of course, and the other one's Tyrod Taylor. 523 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: You know, Tyrod has been around his eleventh season to 524 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 1: hard luck he had as a starter last year with 525 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 1: the Chargers when he got that freak injury with a 526 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 1: puncture lung open a door for Justin Herbert and in 527 00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 1: two eighteen started off three games concussion, open the door 528 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 1: for Baker Mayfield. So I was really happy for him, 529 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: And I gotta tell you, after the first couple of passes, 530 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 1: I'm like, whoa, you know, what's the matter with Tyrod Taylor? 531 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,920 Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden he settled down, got 532 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 1: it together, and I thought it was just tremendous. One 533 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:21,920 Speaker 1: hundred and twelve point one rating and no turnovers and 534 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: the one sack you know, he alluded a rush and 535 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 1: he was brought down near the sideline and a two 536 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: yard loss. So it wasn't like he got hit in 537 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 1: the pocket. You know, they were flawless. And I was 538 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: happy for Lovey Smith because I know certain people sat 539 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 1: always too old. He came from college football. He can't 540 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 1: coach anymore. The NFL's passed him by, and Lovey Smith 541 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 1: his defense has done what all of them do. They're 542 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: plus three in turnover ratio and the equal last year's 543 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 1: number of interceptions in the first game. Is amazing. Now 544 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 1: it doesn't mean they're gonna beat Cleveland. All it means 545 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 1: is they're one. And oh, I've already been bombarded with 546 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 1: emails people, oh h speak to Jaguars and I'm gonna 547 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:12,439 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna chastise. I mean, I would say, let 548 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:15,880 Speaker 1: him celebrate. You know, they may not win another game, 549 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 1: but this one they certainly deserved to celebrate. Three point 550 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:23,440 Speaker 1: underdogs at home. I read everything I could around the 551 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 1: country last week picking him to win one game, two games. 552 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,919 Speaker 1: It was amazing. But it was a great opening victory 553 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 1: against Urban Meyer and Trevor Lawrence. General. You mentioned Tyrod 554 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 1: Taylor starting off. I mean that first drive. Maybe the 555 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: game goes differently if she kill Griffin hangs on to 556 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: the interception at the beginning, but he didn't, and then 557 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor turned into that performance. I we've watched every 558 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: single practice, all all three of us. We've seen every 559 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 1: single practice. We've seen everything up close. We knew that 560 00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: Tyrod was capable of more than what he showed him 561 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 1: the first couple of Were you surprised at all by 562 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 1: how efficient and how actually throwing the ball down the field, 563 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: How explosive he was throwing the ball down the field 564 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 1: that that comes to surprise overall? Did you think he 565 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: could play at that particular level that he showed yesterday? 566 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 1: Yes and no. Because anybody who watched the off season program, 567 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 1: the OTA's watched training camp, the defense was ahead of 568 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 1: the offense almost every day. This offense was playing positive 569 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 1: in the off season and training camp because they ran 570 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,240 Speaker 1: for a hundred and sixty yards, they ran up forty 571 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 1: one times, they controlled the clock, kept the defense fresh, 572 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 1: which is one reason they were plus three in turnover differential, 573 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: And for Tyrode to play the way he did, I 574 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 1: didn't see that in camp or preseason, and it's amazing 575 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 1: two or three times, especially on that play in which 576 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 1: he connected with Brandon Cooks for fifty two yards, in 577 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 1: which he avoided a rusher. He looked like de John 578 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: Watson and older DeShawn Watson the way he alluded the 579 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: pass rusher and threw the ball at connected with Cooks 580 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 1: and it was a great pass. And then Cooks of 581 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 1: course made that incredible catch the first time in double 582 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 1: coverage in which he rustled the ball away from Jenkins, 583 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 1: and so I looked up last night. Brandon Cooks has 584 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 1: been on an unbelievable role. I mean he has been tremendous. 585 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 1: Go back to the last two games of last season. 586 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 1: You guys remember what he did in those two games. 587 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: He had My goodness, I think he had like one 588 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 1: hundred Well, I've got it here somewhere where he had 589 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: one hundred and sixty six yards in one game. In 590 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 1: his last three games, he's averaging well. Let's see last 591 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 1: year against the Jaguars he had eleven catches, two hundred 592 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 1: and forty four yards and two touchdowns, and the last 593 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 1: game against Tennessee eleven one sixty six and two game 594 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 1: before that Cincinnati seven for one forty one and one. 595 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: So he has a three game total of twenty three 596 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: catches for four or thirty nine yards of three touchdowns. 597 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 1: I believe the Browns will probably be double cover Brandon 598 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 1: Cooks and then unsung hero to me, it was Farrell Brown. 599 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 1: And I remember a game last year and you probably 600 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 1: remember what game it was in which I remember it 601 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 1: was across the field from the price box. He had 602 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: a guy and drove him back about fifteen yards and 603 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 1: that running made after the one ended catch. Never see 604 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: him a one in a catch like that, but the 605 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: fact that he last year he flattened a couple of 606 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: people running. You know, he's he's listed at six six, 607 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 1: and I saw Anthony on Clair who's six six supposed 608 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 1: to be standing next to him, and he's taller than 609 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 1: Anthony A. Clair. The one end to catch and the 610 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 1: run was tremendous. And he's starting for the first time. 611 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 1: And let's give some credit here where credits due. Bill 612 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 1: O'Brien Ryan brought him in, I believe, and he, just 613 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 1: like Brandon Cooks and those guys, have been tremendous editions. 614 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 1: And I can't wait to see Farrell Brown become an 615 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 1: even bigger part of this offense and when I watched 616 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:15,959 Speaker 1: the replay last night, the tight ends were blocking like maniacs, 617 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 1: which is which is a credit to them and the coaches. Yep, 618 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 1: that's what they want. And Farrell Brown going back to 619 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 1: Cleveland where he caught his first touchdown pass last year, 620 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: going back to Cleveland. I mean, this is you got 621 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: a lot. Yeah, well we do it some Brown Menchell 622 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 1: going back to Cleveland. Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is gonna 623 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: be interesting to see that return. And speaking of it, 624 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 1: John Cleveland loses to Kansas City. They snatch defeat from 625 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 1: the jaws of victory yesterday. I guess you got to 626 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 1: give the Chiefs a ton of credit. But the Browns 627 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: had some mistakes that obviously you know they would want back, 628 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 1: some plays they'd want back. But what do you make 629 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 1: of the matchup this week? Their punter dropped a perfect 630 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 1: snap which set up a short touchdown. That's got to 631 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 1: just kill the coach, is you know the Browns. I 632 00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 1: big the Browns to win the Super Bowl, and I 633 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 1: thought them they beat the Texans all along, but the 634 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 1: Texans barely lost up their last year with that terrible 635 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 1: weather and you never know, it's not going to be cold, 636 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 1: but it'll be windy. It's always windy on Lake Erie, 637 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 1: and Tyrod Taylor knows that he knows what to expect, 638 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 1: and I would expect it's going to be a very 639 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 1: physical game. They have two great running backs. I looked 640 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: for this to be low scoring, and I looked the 641 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 1: running games deefens blogging to play a role in the outcome. General. 642 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 1: If I would have told you that there's a quarterback 643 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 1: gonna throw four touchdowns in Jacksonville in Week one, I'm 644 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,000 Speaker 1: not sure who we would have said Trevor Lawrence. Well, 645 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 1: it turn out through Jamis Winston for the Saints and 646 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers scores three points with the Packers after this offseason, Look, 647 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,120 Speaker 1: I know the Packers will eventually get it together, but 648 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 1: how embarrassing our performance by the Packers. And did you 649 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: see that coming at all from Jameis Winston. I had 650 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: all along. I've said Jamis Winston's my comeback player of 651 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: the year. I've said that on every show I've been on, 652 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: because I thought spending a year with Drew Brees and 653 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 1: working with Sean Payton would help him. You know, he 654 00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 1: starts off with five and zero and he didn't have 655 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 1: to throw the ball a lot and the Saints man 656 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 1: on man, they just looked incredible and just like Tampa 657 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 1: Bay did. So I think that's gonna be a great race, 658 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:30,879 Speaker 1: and starting with those two teams. But Jamis Winston looked 659 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 1: incredible in his first game as a starter. I don't 660 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:38,160 Speaker 1: think he started one last year, and he put a 661 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 1: silenced Taysom Hill ought to be the quarterback. It was 662 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 1: amazing what he was able to pull off. Okay, so 663 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 1: why did Tennessee have such difficulty blocking Aisoa? I mean, 664 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 1: well lives Well, I'll tell you Ryan Tannehill missed all 665 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 1: of the preseason and a lot of camp because of 666 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 1: COVID nineteen. They didn't They had a COVID nineteen. I 667 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 1: think nine or eleven players on there that wreaked havoc 668 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:09,719 Speaker 1: with them. But the key is Cardinals got up early 669 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,399 Speaker 1: and they took Derrek Kenry out of the game. One time, 670 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,839 Speaker 1: I looked up and Henry had eight carries for eight 671 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,920 Speaker 1: yards and his long game was seven. So they were 672 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 1: all over him. And then when they got that Dick lead, 673 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 1: they couldn't do what did they like to do? Run Henry? 674 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,840 Speaker 1: They could abandon the play action and they were just 675 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 1: totally discombobulated. That is the first Cardinals quarterback to have 676 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:36,360 Speaker 1: five touchdowns in a game, four passing and one rushing 677 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 1: since former oiler Charlieson in nineteen sixty two. DeAndre Hopkins 678 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,800 Speaker 1: had two of those. The most incredible statistic of the 679 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:48,759 Speaker 1: weekend was Chandler Jones, after missing as starting one game 680 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,799 Speaker 1: and getting hurt last year, missing the rest of the year, 681 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 1: coming back and having five sacks and I think whatever 682 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 1: it is he's trying to get on an extension, they 683 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 1: need to do it. Like yesterday night. What about the 684 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:08,080 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts and Seattle Seahawks in Indy and the Colts 685 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:11,880 Speaker 1: just unable to be competitive with them. Russell Wilson hammered 686 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 1: him from the get go. His rating was almost one 687 00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty three. He didn't have to throw a lot. 688 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz didn't play bad, two touchdowns, no interceptions, but 689 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 1: they couldn't run the ball like we thought they wouldn't. 690 00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 1: Their defense is supposed to be great, and the defense wasn't. 691 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 1: Not just great, it wasn't good. And there's a lot 692 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,839 Speaker 1: of things that people will panic after the first game, 693 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,759 Speaker 1: as you guys know, and teams will come around. But 694 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,439 Speaker 1: you look for certain things. And one of the things 695 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:44,920 Speaker 1: about the Texans when they started over with David Culley 696 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,920 Speaker 1: and Loving Smith and then Tim Kelly coming back, they 697 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,480 Speaker 1: had several things. They had to run the ball more 698 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 1: and better. First team think. Tim Kelly told us, I 699 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:57,320 Speaker 1: gotta call more running players. So he saw in preseason 700 00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 1: when they averaged one hundred and sixty two yards a game. 701 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,919 Speaker 1: That was encouraging. Now they've done it in the first game. Defensively, 702 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,240 Speaker 1: they had to stop the worst to run. They couldn't 703 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 1: do it last year. They did it in preseason, and 704 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,400 Speaker 1: they did it yesterday. And then of course they had 705 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 1: the first turnovers. They had ten in preseason and three yesterday. 706 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 1: So everything they did in preseason was encouraging for regular season. 707 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:23,399 Speaker 1: And there's other teams that wanted to do the same thing. 708 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,959 Speaker 1: And then there's a one like Russell Wilson just keeps 709 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,799 Speaker 1: rolling along. As far as Aaron Rodgers, I think until 710 00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 1: he gets that man bun cut, he's not going to 711 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 1: be the same. Every time I see his air and 712 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:41,759 Speaker 1: his man bun, I think, no, wonder you're in struggling. Yeah, 713 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,839 Speaker 1: it's always the man bun. It's always the general facts. 714 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:47,479 Speaker 1: So much of the time. We look forward to catching 715 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,360 Speaker 1: up later in the week. A market job. Thank you 716 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:52,399 Speaker 1: guys very much, have a great rest of the week. 717 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 1: And then man Bun's a killer man, It's a killer. Well, 718 00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:00,840 Speaker 1: the Packers, they didn't have a fun time in Jacksonville. Jacksonville, 719 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:02,839 Speaker 1: didn't have a fun time in Houston, But Houston had 720 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,720 Speaker 1: a fun time in Houston. Who else had fun times 721 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:07,799 Speaker 1: over the weekend? We'll go around in the NFL. Next 722 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 1: right here on Texans All Access, It's all Access, it's 723 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 1: all go, one fast segment this Monday ed issue the 724 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 1: Texans All Access from the Honday Texans Radio Studio. I'm 725 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,880 Speaker 1: your host, John Harris, and it's time for the fastest 726 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:23,600 Speaker 1: four minutes in radio. I'm gonna try and get to 727 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,799 Speaker 1: every single game that happened this Sunday, hitting a little 728 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 1: nugget here, a little nugget there, because it was a 729 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 1: fun Sunday in the NFL, obviously because the Texans won. 730 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: But let's see if we can recap this whole thing 731 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:39,320 Speaker 1: and start in Atlanta. Arthur Smith's debut went down the toilet. 732 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 1: Nick Siriannas Philadelphia Eagles blew them out thirty two to six, 733 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts threw three touchdowns, including one to the trophy 734 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 1: DeVante Smith. Six catches, seventy one yards and that touch. 735 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:56,239 Speaker 1: Eagles win thirty two to six on the road. I 736 00:38:56,440 --> 00:39:00,360 Speaker 1: thought this was about a ninety nine percent chance of 737 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:04,880 Speaker 1: not happening, But the Steelers come from behind to beat 738 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:11,320 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills in Buffalo. Ben Roethlisberger throws a touchdown 739 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,880 Speaker 1: Nag Harris not much on the ground, but defense and 740 00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 1: special teams got it done for the Steelers. Deonte Johnson 741 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:23,920 Speaker 1: caught that touchdown pass from Ben Ulysses. Gilbert had a 742 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,960 Speaker 1: nine yard return of a block punt that gave the 743 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 1: Steelers a ten point lead. They would hang on and 744 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 1: win twenty three to sixteen up in Buffalo. I had 745 00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 1: somebody asked me before the game, why are the Bengals 746 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 1: a three point favorite? Well, because they were gonna win 747 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:44,320 Speaker 1: by three. Twenty seven twenty four, Jamar Chase leads the 748 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:46,520 Speaker 1: way for the Bengals five catches, one hundred and one 749 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 1: yards and a fifty yard touchdown, apparently seeing the ball 750 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,360 Speaker 1: a whole heck of a lot better than he was recently. 751 00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 1: Forty nine Ers and Lions played a wild one this 752 00:39:57,120 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 1: one hit the over forty one to thirty three. Forty 753 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 1: nine Ers took a twenty eight point lead on a 754 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,839 Speaker 1: touchdown pass from Trey Lance, a touchdown pass from Jimmy 755 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:09,040 Speaker 1: Garoppolo Eliza Mitchell, the rookie I loved that of Louisiana 756 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:12,840 Speaker 1: went over one hundred yards with a touch Viebo Samuel 757 00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:14,880 Speaker 1: had one hundred and eighty nine yards receiving, but the 758 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,959 Speaker 1: Lions climbed back into it. But to Noah Villa, forty 759 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 1: one thirty three, forty nine Ers win on the road. 760 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 1: The Cardinals beat the Titans thirty eight to thirteen. Yeah, 761 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:34,919 Speaker 1: not just a win. Blew them out. The Seahawks beat 762 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:39,440 Speaker 1: the Colts twenty eight to sixteen, blew them out. How 763 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:44,360 Speaker 1: about that AFC South teams lost by twenty five, twelve 764 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 1: and sixteen, and your Texans won. How about that Chargers 765 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:51,319 Speaker 1: went to Washington take on to Washington football team. Ryan 766 00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:55,600 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick a hip subluxation means he's gonna go to the 767 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:59,800 Speaker 1: ir unfortunately, and the Chargers hang on to win twenty 768 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:02,560 Speaker 1: the sixteen. Justin Herbert and the guys go all the 769 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:04,680 Speaker 1: way to the East coast. He throws for three thirty 770 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,759 Speaker 1: seven and a touch. Mike Williams catches one of those. 771 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 1: Keenan Allen gets one hundred and the Chargers get win 772 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 1: to start the year. The Panthers in the Sam Donald Ball, 773 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:19,040 Speaker 1: Sam Donald looks really good nineteen to fourteen. The Panthers 774 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 1: get the win. He throws for two seventy nine in 775 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 1: a touch He found his guy Robbie Anderson for a 776 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:27,040 Speaker 1: deep touchdown, and Zach Wilson did get the Jets back 777 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 1: in the game. He's gonna be fun to watch once 778 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:31,600 Speaker 1: he settles in. The Panthers get to win and go 779 00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:33,800 Speaker 1: to one you know, the Chiefs and the Browns, and 780 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:35,520 Speaker 1: watch this one when I got home. Heck of a 781 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 1: football game. But I dropped punt by Gillion, the Browns 782 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,880 Speaker 1: punter led to a short field. The Chiefs take the 783 00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,960 Speaker 1: thirty three twenty nine lead at that point and hang 784 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,880 Speaker 1: on to win as Baker Mayfield throws an interception with 785 00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 1: a little over a minute left. Thirty three twenty nine. 786 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:56,919 Speaker 1: Chiefs win at home. In the Alabama Quarterback Ball, well, 787 00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,239 Speaker 1: this one goes to two. A Tongavi Lowie through for 788 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 1: two hundred two yards and a touchdown, while Mac Jones 789 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 1: threw for two eighty one in a touch but it 790 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 1: was Jalen Waddle getting a touchdown that put the Dolphins 791 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:11,880 Speaker 1: ahead seventeen to ten, and they would hang on and 792 00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:15,279 Speaker 1: win that game.

Wow, how about this? 794 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:20,879 Speaker 1: This was upset. I changed my pick on this time, 795 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:25,600 Speaker 1: so disgusted. Teddy Bridgewater two hundred and sixty four yards 796 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 1: and two tuddies to beat the Giants and the Rams 797 00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:34,360 Speaker 1: hammered the Bears and Matt Stafford and Sean McVeigh.
