Speaker 1: dot com and the Texans App. Johnny Good, evening. We've

10
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,279
Speaker 1: got a lot to talk about with camp every morning, right,

11
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:34,519
Speaker 1: we do every morning every morning we do this. We

12
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 1: have two more shows eight to ten am tomorrow and

13
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 1: then on Thursday, and tomorrow's the final practice in front

14
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: of fans, so we're looking forward to that one and

15
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 1: we'll have a little bit of the best of Jay Joe.

16
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 1: We visited with him this morning. That's coming up a

17
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,560
Speaker 1: bit later on in the program. You and I visited

18
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: with Lovey Smith before practice. He said some things that

19
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 1: I think are worth repeating, so we're gonna hear those

20
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: during the program today, and you never know what else

21
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,279
Speaker 1: is gonna happen. We have some interviews we have not

22
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 1: gotten to yet that we need to. But I wanted

23
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 1: to do this because there's so much talk about Davis

24
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: Mills in this camp, and people wonder people think the

25
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,680
Speaker 1: Texans are set up well. If Mills for some reason

26
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: is not going to be your quarterback, you have two

27
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: first round draft choices next year and to the following year,

28
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 1: you have chances to get a starting quarterback if number

29
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,039
Speaker 1: ten isn't going to be the guy. But we like

30
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 1: what we see so far, so let's take it outside, Johnny,

31
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 1: And I'm sure they're doing shows like this all over

32
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 1: the country, or maybe not. Maybe they are not, but

33
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 1: they should, because let's talk about what quarterbacks are starting

34
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: for teams this season to start it out that will

35
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: not be starting for their teams next season. Will they

36
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 1: or won't they? Aaron Rodgers And I'm gonna put it

37
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: this way, Will they or won't they? Start? Anywhere? It

38
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: could be for their current team or another team. And

39
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 1: many of these are showing up on the Texans schedule,

40
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: and I bet you already have your noggin running on

41
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: who some of these might be. Well, one of them

42
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: is in this preseason game and he's not gonna play

43
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 1: apparently Jamis Winston because he's banged up. But Winston, I'm

44
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: gonna start with him. He's the projected opening day starter

45
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 1: for the New Orleans Saints. Will he start for the

46
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:18,920
Speaker 1: Saints in twenty twenty three? No, okay, no, because the

47
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:20,920
Speaker 1: Saints right now, I have Dennis Allen as a head coach.

48
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 1: He's a defensive minded guy. Defensive minded coaches typically do

49
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 1: not like for their quarterbacks to throw interceptions. They do

50
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 1: not like for them to turn the ball over. Jamis

51
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 1: Winston will do that and it will drive Dennis Allen crazy.

52
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, good Gray Love would not like that either.

53
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 1: What has Love? He said from day one in this

54
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: training camp. So not turn it over. So let's do

55
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 1: a little quarterback roulette because I can't sit here and

56
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,359
Speaker 1: tell you that Jamis Winston will not be the quarterback

57
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 1: in New Orleans without telling you who I think could

58
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:58,079
Speaker 1: be or what the situation could be. That flashed my brain.

59
00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: I went nope. It was like one of those where

60
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 1: she's like, hey, what about this for an idea? Then

61
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: I sweat. I slid left or right. I don't know

62
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 1: how the app works, but swiped right or left? Um,

63
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 1: what's no swipe right? I don't know. I sweat whatever

64
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 1: direction would tell me. Heck no on Carson Wentz going

65
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: to the Saints that I don't see that happening. I'm

66
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: gonna give you a wild one for the New Orleans Saints. Okay,

67
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: Jordan Love. Jordan Love gets traded from Green Bay. Finally,

68
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,919
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is still there. After spending the off season

69
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 1: on a mountaintop meditating, he turns to Green Bay in

70
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three, and Love is finally traded away and

71
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: he goes to Crazy. I mean, I don't know what

72
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: New Orleans. I know New Orleans has a cap issues.

73
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 1: I let me ask you this, assuming Love doesn't play

74
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 1: at all this year, because he's only gonna play if

75
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: Rogers gets hurt, or if they lock up the division

76
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: or something they can't clinch anything else late in the season,

77
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 1: and he mops up. Assuming he doesn't play at all,

78
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: what does Love go four in twenty twenty three? I

79
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: would offer them, At the most, I would offer a third.

80
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: I would offer a third, maybe even offer a fourth,

81
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: and just see if they'll at least entertain the idea.

82
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: I'll give you a fourth okay not. Also depends on

83
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,280
Speaker 1: where New Orleans is also gonna end up, because if

84
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 1: New Orleans doesn't have a great season and their top

85
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 1: top ten twelve in a draft, then hey, top of

86
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 1: the top of day three board for a quarterback that

87
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 1: we know nothing about, Yeah, I'll take that. I don't

88
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 1: know I would. I would offer a four. Steve green

89
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 1: Bay would say no, no, no no, no, no, We're not

90
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 1: even in the ballpark. It's got to be a two.

91
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: I might even think about it, depending on where I'm

92
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 1: drafting at that point. But you wouldn't Love just I

93
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: was thinking about this the other day because somebody posted

94
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 1: a highlight Jordan Loves two minute drill for the Packers

95
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 1: on Twitter. Just they sniped, they just clipped all down

96
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: to play play play play for So you got the

97
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: two minute drill and like forty five seconds and right

98
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 1: at the very end of the last play he had

99
00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 1: to get in the end zone he started on the receiver.

100
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: Get picked. I think Jordan Love's got something to offer

101
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 1: an NFL team that's not the Green Bay Packers. The

102
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: Saints would be a I think a decent spot for that,

103
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: because the Saints could could get him this year. Two yeah,

104
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,359
Speaker 1: so this is his third year, so you'd like to

105
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,160
Speaker 1: be able to see him play in his fourth year,

106
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,479
Speaker 1: so you would know whether to exercise the option for

107
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,040
Speaker 1: the fifth year and all that. So, I Jordan Love

108
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 1: might be kind of interesting for a team like the

109
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: Saints that feel like they're that quarterback position away. I

110
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 1: don't think it's gonna be Jameis Winston. I just think

111
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,480
Speaker 1: Winston will have games where he has three or four

112
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: touchdowns and you have the games where he has two, three,

113
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 1: four picks, and that I think is going to drive

114
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 1: Alan crazy. Not that I wouldn't for Jordan Love, but

115
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 1: I'm just wondering where Jordan Love could go, and the

116
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 1: Saints seem to be a team where that can make

117
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,159
Speaker 1: some sense. I think Winston goes back to being a

118
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 1: backup and maybe a place that Green Bay would be

119
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,479
Speaker 1: a good place for him to be a backup. Just

120
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 1: kind of a swap of Winston for Love. That Winston

121
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: backup Aaron Rodgers, let him learn how the floor wants

122
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 1: to do things and rock on. Let Love come down

123
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: to New Orleans and be the guy. Side note, does

124
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:08,919
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton give you some good competition this week? No? Something? Well? Yeah,

125
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: kind of Yeah. I love Andy. I've always been a

126
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,159
Speaker 1: big family. Whiston's not going to play better than nothing.

127
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 1: If you're right, ian Book won't. Ian Book can't break

128
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 1: a pain of glass from ten feet away. Ian Book

129
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 1: does nothing for me, nothing, No Ian dal does. Yeah,

130
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,840
Speaker 1: you're right, that'll be good. I mean he'll he'll know

131
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 1: where to go with the football and he may dank

132
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: and duct down the field. Yeah, and that might be

133
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 1: some good work. But Okay, I don't think it's I'd

134
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 1: rather see Winston. Let me continue with the list because

135
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,480
Speaker 1: I want to get to every quarterbacks. Where are they

136
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,599
Speaker 1: going to be starting if not for their own team?

137
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 1: Or will they start in twenty twenty three? And some

138
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,479
Speaker 1: of these on the Texan schedule, like opening day starter

139
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: for the Colts, Matt Ryan, Will he start for the

140
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,239
Speaker 1: Colts next year? I think the other day I answered

141
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: that neither he nor Tanny who would be that guy?

142
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 1: And I've kind of I've kind of gone back on

143
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,479
Speaker 1: it a little bit thinking about you know, Ryan's can

144
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 1: have the best protection he's had since twenty sixteen when

145
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 1: he was MVP of the league. He's got some weapons.

146
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 1: You don't know what Paris Campbell's got going on. He's

147
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: got some hamstring issue, which is not totally surprising. We've

148
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 1: seen Paris Campbell for all of a quarter and a

149
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 1: half three years. There's no shack on opening day, but

150
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: could potentially not have shack on opening day defense. But

151
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 1: that does affect things, right, I do have a feeling

152
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: that they will try and squeeze a little bit more

153
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: out of Matt Ryan at the same time telling Ryan, look,

154
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 1: they're gonna they're gonna do the Jordan love thing, like, look,

155
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 1: you gave us a really good year, but you're thirty eight.

156
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 1: We're gonna draft a young guy that's comfortable in this system.

157
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: You helped groom him. We're not going to run you

158
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: out of here if you're being successful, but when it

159
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 1: stops being successful, then obviously he's gonna be that guy.

160
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: They've the Colts just I mean, I hope they don't

161
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: do this, but at some point they gotta find a

162
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: young dude they can build with. All right, I'll get

163
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 1: to the Titans later. Daniel Jones. Will he start for

164
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: the Giants next year or anywhere else? No? Okay, so

165
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 1: this is Giants go young. The Giants will go with

166
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: a rookie, all right, here's a good one, a tough one. Tah,

167
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: does two us start for the Dolphins or for anybody

168
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: else next year? Yes, he starts for the Dolphins. Oh,

169
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 1: so he's gonna have a good year. Well, just because

170
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 1: you he starts next year. I don't think they give

171
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 1: up on him. I think it's I think it's a

172
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: it's a good year for Tuah, but I don't think

173
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: it's gonna break the bank. I think he is gonna

174
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 1: be good. I think he's got enough weapons to be good,

175
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 1: but I don't think he is gonna be you know,

176
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 1: forty four hundred yards and thirty two and twelve. I

177
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 1: don't think that's gonna be it. I think he is

178
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: gonna be effective at times. I think they're gonna be

179
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: times he makes some throws, and I do think there's

180
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,320
Speaker 1: gonna be a little semi turning in the corner. But

181
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: I don't think it's this year. I think it's twenty

182
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: twenty three season where it all comes together for him

183
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,319
Speaker 1: and he becomes a really solid quarterback at that particular point.

184
00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,319
Speaker 1: I don't think he's great this year, but I think

185
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 1: he's good enough to hang on to the job at Minam.

186
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: This is a team Miami that went after Tom Brady illegally, yes,

187
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: according to NFL rules, illegally, and some other quarterback too, apparently.

188
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 1: I'm thinking that, yeah, I'm thinking exactly they wanted to

189
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: trade for this quarterback. I'm thinking that they'll be willing

190
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: and eager to trade for somebody else. And I don't

191
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 1: know who that somebody else is. It depends on how

192
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,080
Speaker 1: TWA does if they finish eight and nine and two

193
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:31,439
Speaker 1: is Yeah, even a Cousins would be an option, I

194
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,319
Speaker 1: would think in Miami, all right, so you're not always

195
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 1: gonna talk trade, You're gonna talk for possible free agent acquisition.

196
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 1: Who else might be out there? Garoppolo rumors are still

197
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:45,959
Speaker 1: out there. As McDaniel was McDaniel with Cousins in Washington

198
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: when mcvayh and Shanahan were all there, was McDaniel there.

199
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 1: I can't remember if he was, if he had some

200
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 1: experience with Cousins. The Cousins really just does nothing for me.

201
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, and I believe he was. I mean, I

202
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 1: know Cousins puts up a lot of yards. I just

203
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: feel like it's empty calories with that guy, I really do.

204
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 1: I just I don't know. I don't care if you

205
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: have everything else in place. I think he can win

206
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 1: a lot of games with Kirk Cousins. I remember talking

207
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 1: to Paul Allen when we were up to Combine and

208
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 1: we were talking about Cousins, of course, and I just

209
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: walked away from that going, man, I really love Paul,

210
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 1: but gosh, he didn't really seem all that like gung

211
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: ho about Kirk Cousins. It just felt it felt weird

212
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 1: and strange. So I, yeah, does Cousins start for the

213
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 1: Vikings next year twenty twenty three. I think there's a

214
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 1: financial component to it that would allow him to get

215
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 1: out of there. Yeah, so I could see you know

216
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: where you know, Cousins would make some sense. And I

217
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: know people in Seattle would not be like, no, we

218
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 1: won somebody. I think Seattle would be a spot for him.

219
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,839
Speaker 1: He's got there's weapons there. With DK Metcalf, I think

220
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:52,959
Speaker 1: I think um Pete Carroll would like him because he's

221
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:57,719
Speaker 1: not gonna be you know, it's it's gonna be a

222
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: little bit more traditional, so run the ball. I think

223
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 1: Kara wants to run the ball a little bit more.

224
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,840
Speaker 1: He's got good weapons at wide receiver that he could

225
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 1: rely on. They just need somebody that they need somebody

226
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:13,199
Speaker 1: to drive that engine a little bit more conservatively than

227
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,199
Speaker 1: Russell was wanting to do it or was going to

228
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: do it. So Kirk Cousins in Seattle might not be

229
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 1: a bad OPS for twenty twenty three because I think

230
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 1: the Drew Locke Geno Smith experiment is going to blow

231
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 1: up badly, badly? Well, how could it not? Exactly? I mean, seriously,

232
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: when I hear that Geno's keith and obvious over here,

233
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 1: and I know when I hear that Geno Smith is

234
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 1: leading that competition, I'm thinking, really, Drew Locke, Look, with

235
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 1: all due respect to Gino, he's been around enough, he's

236
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,839
Speaker 1: started a lot of games, he's had his chances and

237
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: less for some miracle, he's jumped a stage in level

238
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: of play, caliber of play. Forget it, because Drew Locke,

239
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 1: how could he not be better at this point? And

240
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 1: if he's not, he's just not going to ever get there.

241
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 1: He's played less football than Gino Smith. But come on,

242
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: this is your chance, this is your golden opportunity to

243
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 1: resurrect your career. Not happening so far, We'll see where

244
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 1: it goes from there. Quarterbacks, where are they going to

245
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: start next year? Will they start next year if they're

246
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 1: not going to start for their current team. Carson Wentz

247
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:16,079
Speaker 1: with the Washington formerly known as the football Team, formerly

248
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 1: known as something Else squad, He'll be coming here to

249
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 1: NRG Stadium. Will he start for them next year or

250
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 1: will he start anywhere else? One and done, one and

251
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 1: done for Wentz. One and done for Wentz. I just

252
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 1: have a feeling that after a dozen goes so great

253
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: in Washington, and I'm curious to see what the whole

254
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 1: situation is with Snyder and all that. There's obviously all

255
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 1: the rumors, all he's gonna be forced to sell and all.

256
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 1: I don't know, there's a part of me that feels

257
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: like the Commanders need kind of a further cleansing. I

258
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 1: feel like they've done it at certain parts, but the

259
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: fact that Snyder's still there and that all looms and

260
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 1: I just I don't know, there's just kind of this

261
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,319
Speaker 1: And I like Ron Rivera, I really do, but it

262
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: feels like there's a cleansing, like new owner, new GM,

263
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 1: new head coach. They got the president Jason Right. I

264
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: think he's a very impressive guy on the business op side.

265
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 1: But I feel like the football ops side just needs

266
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 1: kind of a kick in the backside. That team is

267
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: talented when you think about the defensive front and Terry McLaren,

268
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 1: they just reuped with. It's just the pieces aren't And

269
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,960
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna go badly with Wentz and they're

270
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 1: gonna have to They're gonna have to start all over.

271
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 1: A good thing. If they're starting all over, especially with

272
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: that position, doesn't mean it's a guarantee. But if it

273
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 1: doesn't go well with Winz, they're gonna end up with

274
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,320
Speaker 1: one of the top five picks. They're gonna end up

275
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,079
Speaker 1: with a with a quarterback. There's no there's no doubt

276
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 1: they'll end up with a quarterback and they can restart

277
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 1: with that player and move forward. But I think it's

278
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 1: one and done for Wentz. And because it will not

279
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 1: gone great with the Eagles, it will not have gone

280
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: great with the Colts, it will not have gone great

281
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: with the Commanders. Teams would be like no, no, no no,

282
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: we're good. You know, we haven't talked about much. And

283
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna put this name in there as well, and

284
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: it would be injury related more than anything. We're talking

285
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 1: about quarterbacks. Will they start for their team next year

286
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 1: or anywhere else. Matt Stafford with the elbow problem. We

287
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: have not talked enough about this for our programs. Texans

288
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 1: don't play the Rams except in the preseason. Stafford wasn't

289
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: gonna play anyway. You know the rest of the story.

290
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 1: But this is gonna be an issue. Look, can you

291
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 1: imagine if they don't have Stafford available for Opening Night

292
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 1: against the Buffalo Bills. Do you think that Bills are

293
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 1: a little hungry for a win? Oh my goodness. I

294
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 1: mean I am so pumped up for that game. You know.

295
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 1: It's just look, I don't have any dog in that fight.

296
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: I know you have Sal and Buffalo Sal Capaccio and

297
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 1: he's a super nice guy. By the way. I've heard

298
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 1: him on a couple of other shows. Yeah, he's on

299
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 1: McAfee the Day Great, Yeah, I think I did hear

300
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 1: him on. Yeah. He did a great job, and I

301
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 1: like him. And he showed us around Buffalo, so we

302
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 1: know some people up there and it's good and John Murphy,

303
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 1: the boys of the Bills and all that. But to me,

304
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 1: I don't really care who wins and loses. I will

305
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 1: feel no pain if Buffalo loses. In fact, I kind

306
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,040
Speaker 1: of want Buffalo to lose. It's an AFC team, all right,

307
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 1: it's better for us, But I'm pumped up for that game, John,

308
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 1: How can you not be pumped up? There are very

309
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 1: few sports where it's like, oh, Lakers are playing the

310
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 1: so and so, I don't care. I care about this.

311
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 1: It's very interesting now in the NBA, I have cared

312
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: about other matchups not involving the Rockets in the past.

313
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 1: Just right now, it just doesn't feel that way this.

314
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: When I heard about the elbow issue, I wasn't surprised

315
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:20,520
Speaker 1: because Stafford never played more than sixteen games. Then you

316
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 1: tack on playoff game against the Cardinals, playoff game at

317
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 1: the Bucks, playoff game against the Niners, super Bowl against

318
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 1: the Bengals. That's four extra games that he played last year. Now,

319
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 1: it doesn't sound like a whole heck of a lot,

320
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 1: but that's at least say it's thirty throws. That's another

321
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty throws tacked on that he's he's

322
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: not had to make in Detroit because he wasn't playing

323
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: but sixteen games a year. When he was somebody Triggs,

324
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,240
Speaker 1: they weren't going to the playoffs. So that's what he

325
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 1: was playing, so I wasn't surprised by that that he

326
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 1: had a little bit issue and he's a little bit

327
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 1: longer in the tooth. But that's a big one because

328
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 1: the way that he relied eyes on his arm. His

329
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 1: feet can be auto whack, he can be sidearm, he

330
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 1: can drop down and all that kind of stuff that

331
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 1: he does. His elbows hurting a little bit. M that

332
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 1: that could be. That could be amazing that they're talking about.

333
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 1: It's not a typical football injury. It just bothers you

334
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: when you hear about it. And you know what, the

335
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: Rams don't have a sexy brand name. Backup quarterback John

336
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 1: Woolford doesn't do anything for me. And the Texans are

337
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 1: gonna play there one week from Friday night, La nine o'clock. Look,

338
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 1: I'll be there. If the Texans play a team of rodents,

339
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: I don't care. And it is so far it's gonna

340
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 1: be awesome. It's gonna be a spectacle. And they are

341
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 1: the defending Super Bowl champions. I wish we were seeing Stafford,

342
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: but we won't. Yeah, well, and we've got two more

343
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 1: stadiums to see their boss. We've got so far, we

344
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 1: got Allegiance we'll buy October. Well, we will have seen

345
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: all of them in the NFL. Those are the last

346
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 1: two to complete the set. Oh you're forgetting one O

347
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 1: contrere because next year it's returned to Hotlanta for the

348
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 1: Oh that's right. How did that get that? So? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,

349
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 1: I was thinking about this. It was twenty fifteen, that

350
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 1: very memorable, I forgettable, I E. Horrible game in Atlanta.

351
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,199
Speaker 1: Well I can handle that that one, Atlanta. I can

352
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 1: handle that one easy, Marcus Mariota. No, yeah, all right.

353
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: So he will not be starting for the Falcons or

354
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,160
Speaker 1: anywhere else. Desmond Ritter gets to be kind of I'm

355
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 1: not oh, because the Texans will see him next year.

356
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 1: According to you, Desmond Ritter could be the starter. I

357
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 1: think desb Riddter is gonna be the starter very early

358
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two. I think he's gonna do enough

359
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 1: to hang on to the job. And I think going

360
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:36,399
Speaker 1: into twenty twenty three, I don't think he should be

361
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 1: in a hot seat, but anything, he's gonna be. Arthur

362
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 1: Smith's gonna be on a little bit of a hot seat,

363
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 1: but Desmond Ritter is gonna be a guy to kind

364
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 1: of like, hey, Look what Arthur Smith has done with

365
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 1: this team. Look what he's doing with Ritter, and I

366
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 1: think they'll get behind him, and I think Ridder will

367
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 1: be the guy that we see in twenty twenty. I

368
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 1: want to see the numbers here because we're doing this

369
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,720
Speaker 1: topic here. Quarterbacks. Are they gonna remain starters of their

370
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 1: team or start anywhere else? This could be a record

371
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,639
Speaker 1: about a turnover. Oh yeah, you see a lot of

372
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 1: coaching turnovers, and you do see quarterback turnover, of course

373
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 1: you do. But this is interesting to me how many

374
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,679
Speaker 1: quarterbacks could be changing teams or just dropping out of

375
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 1: the league altogether. All right, let's get to a couple

376
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 1: of other ones here. Uh, these are gonna be quick.

377
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,679
Speaker 1: Jacobe Brissette because he's gonna start and play them, you

378
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,320
Speaker 1: know who on opening day for the Cleveland Browns as

379
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,639
Speaker 1: they face Caroltta. But Baker Mayfield, will you remain with

380
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 1: the Panthers or starts somewhere else. I knew this one

381
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,119
Speaker 1: was coming. I was preparing for it, and I have

382
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 1: no idea. Okay, I just feel like you could almost

383
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 1: see it working out, yeah in a way, in a way, yeah,

384
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 1: And I don't know what the Here's the thing in

385
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 1: eighteen nineteen, twenty twenty one, twenty two. This is the

386
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 1: fifth year of his rookie deal. This last year of

387
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:47,399
Speaker 1: his rookie deal. So if the Panthers do go, I

388
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,359
Speaker 1: was not all in. But if they decide, hey, we

389
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 1: kind of like you, well's let's do this thing, well,

390
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 1: then they gotta get a contract. Yeah, I just don't know.

391
00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,399
Speaker 1: Depends on how he does it, all depends on how

392
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 1: we do absolute. And so then I look at my

393
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,160
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three draft chart and I look at Bryce Young,

394
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 1: C J. Stroud, Tyler Van Dyke, Will Levis, Devin Leary,

395
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:13,640
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson, Spencer Rather, Tanner McKee, Brennan Armstrong, Grayson McCall.

396
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 1: I look at all these quarterbacks and I'm like, do

397
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 1: I want to just I don't want to say start over,

398
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 1: but do I want to start over? YEA with a

399
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 1: young dude that I can mold well by way and

400
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: he's only seen the Panthers way. And it's not Baker,

401
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,439
Speaker 1: it's not I'm getting my guy. And maybe that's what

402
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 1: they've got with Matt Krall. Maybe I don't know, but

403
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 1: a lot of these teams are gonna have that decision.

404
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 1: When you talk about turnover, there's gonna be turnover for

405
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 1: this reason. These quarterbacks right here, these young dudes coming.

406
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:44,680
Speaker 1: It's got to be the right fit. I don't think

407
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 1: it can be a place. Well, you know, I'm in

408
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 1: a hot seat. And you tell the coach your coaches

409
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 1: on HOTA, you know he knows he is. And the

410
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 1: GM's like, yeah, we want to get a young quarterback.

411
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 1: Oh who whoa, whoa, whoa. I'm on a hot seat here. No,

412
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 1: I want a veteran. So I think this offseason, quarterback wise,

413
00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:01,199
Speaker 1: the quarterback carousel is gonna be wild. Okay, Will Jared

414
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:04,359
Speaker 1: Goff start for the Lions next year or anywhere else?

415
00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 1: That's a tough one, isn't it. That's a hard one

416
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: because if they win six games, I feel like the

417
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:15,200
Speaker 1: Lions are on the precipice. Man. I feel like you've

418
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: said this with MC, I don't I don't love the

419
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 1: Goff situation. And that's that's what's driving me crazy. If

420
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,880
Speaker 1: here's where I feel like the Lions are not totally

421
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 1: like the Texans, but in some sense they are. I

422
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: feel like the Lions have up their talent level and

423
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,479
Speaker 1: you've got Jared Goff's in there now. It's totally different

424
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 1: because golf has been in the league for a while.

425
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:40,440
Speaker 1: But if golf flames out and they go three and fourteen,

426
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 1: maybe they're gonna get the number one pick in the draft.

427
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,400
Speaker 1: They're gonna have the choice of quarterbacks to start with

428
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 1: Jamison Williams. I'm on Ross Saint Brown. An offensive line

429
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 1: that is surprisingly one of the best in the league.

430
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,399
Speaker 1: That line with Detroit is very, very good. Brad Holmes

431
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,879
Speaker 1: has built something and it gives me a little bit

432
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 1: of a Seattle vibe that Seattle got all the pieces

433
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 1: around their quarterback and they were thrown into Varus Jackson

434
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 1: and others. They signed man Fly into the big contract,

435
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: right they signed him to it. It was it was

436
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: a good contract at the time. But then they drafted

437
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,880
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson and Pe Carroll's like, well, Wilson's better than him,

438
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 1: so we're gonna play Russell Wilson and then of course

439
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 1: the rest is history. Could the Lions do something like that?

440
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 1: Maybe with their top pick, do they get C. J.

441
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,120
Speaker 1: Strouder Brush Young? Maybe I just feel like the Lions

442
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 1: are that guy away, and maybe it's the other thing.

443
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,200
Speaker 1: Maybe the Lions are like, Hey, one of these young

444
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,199
Speaker 1: quarterbacks throughout the league, can we make a play for

445
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 1: Do we make a play for Kyler Murray? Like? If

446
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 1: Kyler is not happy with what's going on in Arizona, don't.

447
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: I don't know. So I just feel like there's gonna

448
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 1: be a lot. But I feel like the Lions will

449
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,400
Speaker 1: find more quarterback options to their liking. If they want

450
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 1: to go with the rookie, they can just leave Golf,

451
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: not on a financial situation, but leave Goff there. Let

452
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 1: Golf go through twenty twenty three or whatever, and see

453
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: what you've got and at some point turn it over

454
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 1: to the rookie and then rock on. I think golf

455
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 1: is going to when Golf has done being a starter,

456
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 1: he'll be a career backup. He'll be match shop. He'll

457
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:06,360
Speaker 1: stick around the league for four or five years, because

458
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,159
Speaker 1: you know, you could always rely on the talent to

459
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 1: at least do that. At least do that. Okay, save

460
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 1: the best for last year. We have a couple of

461
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 1: minutes for Ryan Tannehill. Will he start with the Titans

462
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 1: next year or somewhere else. Look, they drafted a relative

463
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:22,120
Speaker 1: to this past draft high profile quarterback in Malik Willis.

464
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 1: So I haven't heard rumblings out of Tennessee's camp that, oh,

465
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: you gotta start Willis because it's camp. No one's seen

466
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 1: Tannehill play yet. What if Tannehill throws a pick or

467
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,879
Speaker 1: two in one of these preseason games and then the

468
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,160
Speaker 1: buzz really gets going. I don't know if that's gonna happen.

469
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,880
Speaker 1: Or Willis looks really good and like whoop, and he's

470
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 1: into the end zone a couple of times with these

471
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:44,159
Speaker 1: amazing plays. He throws a deep ball, he has a

472
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 1: fantastic run. There's gonna be some buzz in Nashville, some

473
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 1: twang for Malik Willis. Well, here's I don't want to

474
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,440
Speaker 1: say part of the issue, but here's something and considered.

475
00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 1: First game is Giants right out of the shoot in Tennessee.

476
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 1: But the next two Bills I know that's the week

477
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: two Monday night doubleheader game. Raiders. Oh, I like this

478
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,200
Speaker 1: for them for one of us one and two have

479
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 1: to shoot. Then, so the Giants at home, I believe,

480
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:20,919
Speaker 1: Then they go to Buffalo, Raiders come to Tennessee. But

481
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 1: then the Titans go to the Colts, and I can

482
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,120
Speaker 1: promise you just like we have the Colts circle because

483
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 1: of what they did us last year. I guarantee you

484
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 1: the Colts have the Titans circle like dam beating us

485
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: this year. He gets out of there one and four.

486
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,639
Speaker 1: The next game is the Commanders, and I bring that

487
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 1: up because if you want to if you want to,

488
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 1: now it's on the road, but if you want to

489
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:42,400
Speaker 1: get a young quarterback, maybe that's the game because Commanders

490
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 1: may not score all that much. Now, they're tough defensively,

491
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,399
Speaker 1: but if you want to shake it up a little bit,

492
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 1: that might be the game to do it. Because after Commanders,

493
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:54,359
Speaker 1: Colts Colts again. Oh wow, they're they're very tight. Colts again,

494
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 1: then US, then Chiefs, then Broncos. That's tough, the Hackers

495
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 1: then Bengals. No joke schedule there for the Tennessee Titans.

496
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 1: But you know what, Johnny Vrabel is one of the

497
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 1: best head coaches in this league. I hate to admit it,

498
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 1: but he is. You know, like we'd like him, I

499
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 1: just hate him because he's a Titan. So he manufactures wins,

500
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 1: he finds ways. There's no way he's making that change

501
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 1: unless he really feels I know it sounds simplistic to

502
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 1: say he has a better chance to win but he

503
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,160
Speaker 1: adds a dimension. He's not going to turn it over

504
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: because if Rabel cannot tolerate that, that's why the three

505
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 1: picks burn him more than anything in a playoff game.

506
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:35,440
Speaker 1: But does Malik Willis allow him to manufacture those wins

507
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: a little bit easier? Yeah, because you can run. Remember

508
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,159
Speaker 1: the wild Henry in Week two of twenty eighteen and

509
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,639
Speaker 1: all that you can. You can control the game and

510
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:44,679
Speaker 1: kind of shorten it and do things and then all

511
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:46,640
Speaker 1: of a sudden he pops a big play and wow,

512
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,680
Speaker 1: and our defense is playing better because we've invested in it.

513
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:51,640
Speaker 1: It got a lot better last year from the year before.

514
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 1: There's your answer. All right, So Lee Willis is going

515
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 1: to be the quarterback in Tennessee in twenty twenty three

516
00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:00,400
Speaker 1: interest or somebody else or somebody else, maybe will gets

517
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 1: in there and they find out yeah, maybe not maybe

518
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:06,240
Speaker 1: not our guy either, And then you can't go back

519
00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 1: to Tannehill. No, no, no no, you can't. But I think

520
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 1: the Titans at that point might be better served with

521
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,719
Speaker 1: that team in the window it's in to look for

522
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,119
Speaker 1: a maybe not Matt Ryan, maybe not that long in

523
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 1: the tooth, but look for maybe a veteran gets unhappy

524
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 1: somewhere and they pulled together. They pulled together picks over

525
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:27,359
Speaker 1: the few years, and maybe that Garoppolo and Tennessee, come on,

526
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 1: you know that would work it. Tannehill's a hell of

527
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:32,359
Speaker 1: an athlete. You know he used to be a receiver.

528
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 1: Stop me, okay, coming up on the program, tell me

529
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 1: next that Colt mccoyon Georgie Shipley were roommates. They were roommates.

530
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 1: You didn't know this. You didn't know this. Did you

531
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 1: know about Chris Sims and Kyle Shanahan having tattoos? I'm

532
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 1: sure no. Well that's a little bit more esoteric. Okay,

533
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 1: let's get to Jonathan Joseph caught up with him this morning,

534
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,879
Speaker 1: the little best of that Lovey Smith. We caught up

535
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 1: with him. What did he have to say about the

536
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 1: guys hitting each other again and again and again training camp,

537
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 1: the drudgery of it, He didn't use that word. That's

538
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: my word. It's not a drudgery, but the repetitive nature

539
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:06,639
Speaker 1: of it and how to get out of it. He

540
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,640
Speaker 1: used a great analogy that's coming up next to here

541
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 1: on Texans Radio. Here in the Hunday Texans Radio studio,

542
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 1: air conditioned comfort, very nice, but this morning on the

543
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,119
Speaker 1: practice field not so much. Still great to see the

544
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 1: team working out in pads and prior to practice this morning,

545
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 1: John Harris and I visited with Lovey Smith and talked

546
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,400
Speaker 1: about the grind of camp coming off a day off.

547
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,120
Speaker 1: You know, we've been in training camp for a while,

548
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 1: so you know the recovery part is pretty important right now.

549
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 1: But as I told the players, you mean just you know,

550
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 1: pitching a fourth quarter a little bit, you got a grind.

551
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,679
Speaker 1: Everybody's sore, and when you get a day off to

552
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:42,719
Speaker 1: recover a little bit. As good as far as coaches,

553
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 1: we get a chance to regroup, you know, we get

554
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,640
Speaker 1: a game to come up found preparations for the game

555
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 1: in place. Also, coach, how will you get ready for

556
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,399
Speaker 1: Saturdays game? We know it's a preseason game and you

557
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:53,880
Speaker 1: can't put all the time you would like a regular

558
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:55,680
Speaker 1: season game, But how much time you put him getting

559
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:57,879
Speaker 1: ready for the game itself? We don't game playing an

560
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 1: awful lot. It's about training camp, you know, good on good,

561
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,399
Speaker 1: We'll do it right up until tomorrow. Wednesday will be

562
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 1: the last really training camp offense defense. Thursday will transition

563
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:12,360
Speaker 1: then as far as getting ready for new Orleans. How

564
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 1: hard is it to determine playing time of the players

565
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,159
Speaker 1: and the way the game flow is coach, because sometimes

566
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:18,399
Speaker 1: you could go three and out. You can have a

567
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 1: time to play drive. Who knows. We go more on

568
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:23,359
Speaker 1: plays that we want to see from the guys, and

569
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,360
Speaker 1: we'll have some guys that won't play at all, we'll

570
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 1: have some of them to play a little bit. And

571
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 1: as much as anything, you know, there's not a whole

572
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,399
Speaker 1: lot of lives stuff in training camp. A lot of

573
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 1: what we want to get a competition in training camp

574
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:35,080
Speaker 1: to kind of see some of the guys we're not

575
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 1: quite share of. Because it's the most important thing as

576
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: you go into the game for the coaching staff, once

577
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 1: you get in there, the game operation, all that kind

578
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 1: of stuff. How important is that on Saturday for you

579
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 1: and your staff. It's just that we're all getting ready

580
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 1: for Indie coming in here. So bus we're new staff, everything, preparation,

581
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 1: who's up in the press box, communication down in distance, everything, trainers,

582
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,400
Speaker 1: communicating when guys are hurt. So just all the things

583
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,720
Speaker 1: you need to get ready for a football game. Thursday,

584
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 1: we'll go through an entire pre game all the way

585
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 1: up halftime, going so all that stuff is what we're

586
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,439
Speaker 1: looking for. Coach, give us a couple of things you

587
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 1: like about what you've seen out here, and maybe a

588
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 1: couple of things you want to see do better. Well,

589
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 1: you know a lot of things that do better because

590
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 1: we're you know, we're still learning, but just grinding for

591
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,720
Speaker 1: you know, we say show up. You know it's her.

592
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 1: It's just come into practice. And we have some of

593
00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 1: the guys that have made it never made it through

594
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,959
Speaker 1: a full training camp that I'm making it through. So

595
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 1: that's a part of it. Just mental toughness through training.

596
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 1: It's hard. You wanted to be hard. The reason why

597
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 1: we're not doing it. You know the guys should do.

598
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 1: So you're developing a lot of those things. That's what

599
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 1: we want to see. And I love when you get

600
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 1: down to guys, see the light at the end of

601
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 1: the tunnel. A few more days, but you know you

602
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 1: got two minutes left of going a game, your best

603
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,719
Speaker 1: play had to come and play. Then how much does

604
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 1: it tell you about the players when they are able

605
00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:58,920
Speaker 1: to get through that grind and still play at a

606
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 1: pretty high levels of practice. Coaching, we're growing and that's

607
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 1: what we want to see, and that's what they've done.

608
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 1: You're telling awful lot right now. You know when it

609
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 1: going gets tough everybody, you know, Thursday of training camp,

610
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 1: it's kind of like the wedding night. You know, everybody's excited,

611
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 1: but then after a few years of marriage, you know,

612
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:17,600
Speaker 1: you still had that same excitement. That's what we're looking for.

613
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: Are's head coach, Lovey Smith. After we visited with him,

614
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 1: we got on the air and eventually in the program, Jjo,

615
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:28,880
Speaker 1: Jonathan Joseph came into our broadcast tent and it was

616
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 1: great to catch up with him. Man, it's good to

617
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 1: see it, j Jo. How's it going. It's going pretty good.

618
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 1: You know, I'm obviously glad to be back out here

619
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 1: to watch the guys. The weather was not too bad

620
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: Today's Sunday. A little cloud cover today. Sure, for sure,

621
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 1: clouds aren't definitely winning today, but they're they're pushing it

622
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 1: a little bit. They're pushing it, j Joe. Is the

623
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 1: hardest part in training camp for you, whether during the practice,

624
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 1: during week whenever, What was the hardest part going through

625
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 1: it here in Houston? The hardest part for me was

626
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 1: at the initie. I'll say first week and a half

627
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 1: because you all pumped up and excited about training camp,

628
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 1: and then eventually you just get tired of going against

629
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 1: your teammates because you started to figure out their tendencies.

630
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 1: You see their plays each and every day. So to me,

631
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: it just wasn't fun anymore because you know, they started

632
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 1: complaining about, you know our plays, you know how tendencies,

633
00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 1: you know this and that, and then you know later

634
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 1: on in my career. Obviously earlier on we were doing

635
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 1: some of the scrimmages and things, but it became a

636
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 1: big infast point at the end of my career and

637
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 1: I think, you know, they started to break training came

638
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,880
Speaker 1: up a little bit. What did you work out personally though,

639
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 1: as your career advanced during this time of year, your

640
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:35,880
Speaker 1: technique just getting the skills re sharpened. How do you

641
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 1: improve when you've been in the league for a few years.

642
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 1: It's about repetition, as crazy as it sounds, you know,

643
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 1: what is it load management or you know they're tracking

644
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 1: the guys now to how many reps you get, your speed,

645
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: how far, how far off a distance you're running things.

646
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 1: I think for me, I was always just trying to

647
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 1: push it as much as I can, just to get

648
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 1: my body physically ready in my mind, mentally ready, because

649
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 1: you know throughout the season you don't have much time

650
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 1: during the week to kind of replicate those things, and

651
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:03,280
Speaker 1: training CAMPI is the only chance you have. So for me,

652
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,280
Speaker 1: it was just about going out and getting live repetitions,

653
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,360
Speaker 1: getting good guys good on good, going against hop Beyandre,

654
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 1: I mean hop Andre Johnson, whoever. It was in practice,

655
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 1: just trying to get as much good on good so

656
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,480
Speaker 1: when I do get to the game, I'm able to

657
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 1: replicate that speed and I'm not caught off guard. Sure,

658
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 1: it's always weird looking at somebody in twenty four or

659
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 1: the last few years. I look at twenty four girls,

660
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 1: Now that's not Jonathan Joseph. The guy we're twenty four

661
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 1: is pretty good, young athletic, I mean everything you want

662
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 1: a defensive back, what are you seeing sting. I see

663
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 1: a great young corner far as a guy that's able

664
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 1: to go out there and just look calm. It don't

665
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 1: look too overwhelming for him. I think that comes from

666
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 1: being in a great program at LSU. Obviously you don't

667
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 1: just draft the guy that high and take a chance

668
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: if he can't play. So I think he's starting to

669
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,880
Speaker 1: show all those signs. But obviously he's still young and

670
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 1: it's going to be some things that come his way

671
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 1: that he'll have to figure out. But the best thing

672
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,200
Speaker 1: you can do is get out there and get repetitions.

673
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 1: I think, you know, he's putting the foot of injury

674
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 1: behind him, moving on from it. So I think it's

675
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 1: a positive sign to see a guy like that, obviously

676
00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 1: go through some young in his career. Things he did

677
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 1: at LSU from you know, start him as a freshman

678
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 1: and then went through the little turmoil there with the

679
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 1: coaching staff and things like that, and now top draft

680
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 1: pick able to come out of here and compete a

681
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:12,720
Speaker 1: great city, great young team. Jonathan, you didn't play for Lovey,

682
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 1: but the way he coaches, he wants that ball out.

683
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 1: He wants to strip it every chance you get. What

684
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,720
Speaker 1: about his style as a head coach. Playing in his

685
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 1: fourth three, I could have played twenty five years. But

686
00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 1: I'm just funny you say that. I was looking at

687
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,440
Speaker 1: I was reading an article yesterday Patrick Peterson was talking

688
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 1: about the change in Minnesota, and he was like, it

689
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 1: takes us the stresses off a corner. You know, I'm

690
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:38,479
Speaker 1: able to see the ball see to play happen in

691
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 1: front of me and react to it. And you know,

692
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,360
Speaker 1: obviously in this league, most interceptions most turn up what

693
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 1: happens when you see the ball thrown, see the ball caught,

694
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 1: because we can break on it, Guys can get in

695
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 1: position to make the tackle, punch it out, the second

696
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,320
Speaker 1: guy coming in, and all those things. And it's been

697
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 1: a thing that's followed him everywhere he's went, big invacent

698
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 1: and I think when you have that, you know is

699
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 1: able to give your team more opportunities to score points.

700
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 1: And when the game, when you look back at your career,

701
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 1: Mark I talked about this all the time. Twenty eighteen Philadelphia.

702
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 1: I mean, they're just games you look back and go, man,

703
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 1: if we just had that one, oh man, we could

704
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 1: have been it's your game that you look back and go, come.

705
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: We could have just gotten that one right there. Man,

706
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 1: we would have been on our way. Because I'm convinced,

707
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 1: and I said it's to Mark, I feel it's the

708
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen team. We win that game at Philly, well,

709
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 1: I think we would have been tough in the playoffs,

710
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 1: would have gotten the bye week, and that Bobby becomes

711
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 1: hugely important. Is there one that you look back on

712
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 1: and go man, I wish we'd had that one. It's

713
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 1: a few. I think UM Baltimore and when Shop went

714
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:38,960
Speaker 1: down that one, UM twelve, that was twelve. I think

715
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 1: the one you're talking about Philly, I think UM the

716
00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 1: year with UM the biggest year for me. I would

717
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 1: say I wouldn't say the biggest, but the game with A. J.

718
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,120
Speaker 1: Bouyer last year. I think Who's up in New England?

719
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:58,840
Speaker 1: Oh twelve twenty twelve. Yeah, that night against Brady, That

720
00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 1: night against Brady yo on it. I mean it was

721
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 1: like I'd never seen that. I mean, clowning was at

722
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: a whole different level at night. But I mean we

723
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 1: got we were eighteen point dogs and we got the

724
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 1: ball down eight and the fourth quarter, I mean, how

725
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: are you guys to feel on the sideline that we

726
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 1: was right there? An't it? You know, we felt as

727
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,160
Speaker 1: a team we had enough to take that next step

728
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 1: and get over the hump. And I always talk about

729
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,359
Speaker 1: the time of these things with the quarterback, with you know,

730
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:25,280
Speaker 1: the nucleus of the team and all that just timing

731
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:28,439
Speaker 1: up right, and you know, for whatever reason, I felt

732
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,040
Speaker 1: like I've always just been right off on that moment,

733
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 1: you know, we was here and when I was in Cincinnati,

734
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 1: I got there to bring some youth in and then

735
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,359
Speaker 1: Carson Palmer goes down, and then you know, I come here,

736
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:40,879
Speaker 1: we get things, rolling shop go down, and it takes

737
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:42,839
Speaker 1: a while till we find the shan and all those things.

738
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:44,400
Speaker 1: And we had some great moments there. But you know,

739
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, you got to have

740
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,759
Speaker 1: We haven't seen another defense like that two thousand Baltimore

741
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,799
Speaker 1: team that you know spells points over in league history.

742
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,399
Speaker 1: So you have to have some type of astronomical season

743
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:56,759
Speaker 1: from a defensive standpoint, even give yourself a chance if

744
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,040
Speaker 1: you don't have that star quarterback Shonathan you guys want

745
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 1: some pressure cooker games. Though you won ten six at

746
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 1: Cincinnati that I had to be really special that Monday

747
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,880
Speaker 1: nightcap ten to six. To be a defensive player and

748
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 1: win a game like that, you gotta take a lot

749
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 1: of pride in that victory. Absolutely. You think about the

750
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,239
Speaker 1: coaching staff we had, the guys that was on that

751
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 1: coaching staff, the guys that was on that defense. Even

752
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:19,440
Speaker 1: on that team, you know, we had a lot of

753
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 1: offensive guys that had defensive mentalities because what they went

754
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:26,240
Speaker 1: through here previously before enclosed ball games and being closed

755
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,520
Speaker 1: right on the brink, So we knew anytime we got

756
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:30,640
Speaker 1: in the game what about situation was. We knew it

757
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:32,800
Speaker 1: was a defense that no matter what happened, we couldn't

758
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 1: come to the sideline and gripe about our situation. We

759
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 1: had to go out there and hold up out the

760
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:38,399
Speaker 1: end of the bargain. And right at that point time,

761
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:39,959
Speaker 1: I think we was the focal point of the team.

762
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 1: All Right, you're gonna visit the TV guys in the

763
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,879
Speaker 1: booth on Saturday nights the third quarter. That's gonna be cool.

764
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,520
Speaker 1: So tell me something. I know you did that broadcast

765
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 1: boot camp with the NFL. What was that like? And

766
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:51,799
Speaker 1: tell us how you're looking forward to Saturday. I think

767
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 1: it was a great overall experience, a little bit of

768
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,640
Speaker 1: a whirlwind because you know they're throwing you in all

769
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:58,279
Speaker 1: these different meetings and settings. But I think it's a

770
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 1: lot to take in because you don't well for me personally,

771
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:02,319
Speaker 1: I didn't go in there saying that I want to

772
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 1: do this specifically, or that I just went in with

773
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 1: an open ball playing you know, whatever kind of attracts me. Whatever.

774
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:09,719
Speaker 1: I think, I'm a wil at what fits my personality,

775
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:11,839
Speaker 1: I'm gonna just shoot out for it. So I think

776
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,000
Speaker 1: the overall experience, just seeing the time that they put

777
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:16,320
Speaker 1: in behind the scenes, everything that goes into it. Is

778
00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:18,920
Speaker 1: obviously not an easy job, and I obviously knows that,

779
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 1: but just certain things that you learn from being on

780
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,480
Speaker 1: the radio versus own TV words that you can't use

781
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:26,040
Speaker 1: in or say about painting the picture and things like that.

782
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 1: So I think them it's just a small things because

783
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:30,440
Speaker 1: I've always been a student of the game, always of

784
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,759
Speaker 1: being a fan of you know, the broadcasters, announcers more so.

785
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 1: You know, obviously John Madden's legendary, but you know, Bill

786
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:38,880
Speaker 1: Walton is one of my favorite in basketball. Him and

787
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 1: Huby Brown just you know, they was always hilarious to

788
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:43,080
Speaker 1: me when I watched the games as a young kid,

789
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:45,680
Speaker 1: and the cross over into that now to have an

790
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:48,200
Speaker 1: opportunity that's just big for me. J Ya, thanks a

791
00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:49,960
Speaker 1: lot for joining. I guess we look forward to the weekend,

792
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: no problem. Thank you guys. Some good stuff there with

793

797

Speaker 1: team and what's going on in the preseason opener against

Speaker 1: the Saints, and don't forget you can get it on

00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:36,360
Speaker 1: the app. All right, Coming up on the program, Ben McDaniels,

808
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 1: Wide receivers coach. I had a nice visit with him

809
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 1: this morning. Let's hear that, and how this group is

810
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:46,399
Speaker 1: doing with Brandon Cooks, Nico Collins, you know who they are.

811
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 1: Let's hear about them. Next on Texans All Access, it's

812
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 1: countdown to kickoff. We have ninety six hours before the

813
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:58,279
Speaker 1: Texans play the Saints on Saturday night. Now ninety six

814
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 1: doesn't sound that good. I mean, seventy two makes it

815
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,799
Speaker 1: sound a little closer. And that's easy math to do right,

816
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:06,759
Speaker 1: you get forty eight, you get twenty four, those are

817
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:10,080
Speaker 1: just much easier. Ninety six just sounds like a lot still.

818
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,440
Speaker 1: But it's coming up here Saturday night at seven o'clock

819
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 1: when the Texans play the Saints, and among the groups

820
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,760
Speaker 1: that are going to get heavy scrutiny from the fan base,

821
00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:22,280
Speaker 1: media base, all bases would be the receivers, Brandon Cooks,

822
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,480
Speaker 1: who's been so good for this team since he's come over,

823
00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: so good since since he's coming to the league, Nico Collins,

824
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 1: second year player out of Michigan, and others as well. Well,

825
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,840
Speaker 1: let's catch up now with Ben McDaniels. I visited with

826
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 1: him this morning. He's the receiver's coach, and I thought

827
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 1: I could get them all hyped up about the game

828
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:42,959
Speaker 1: on Saturday, but teeth taking it one day at a time,

829
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:46,719
Speaker 1: as the coaches say, yeah, it'll it'll come when it comes. Yeah,

830
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 1: you know, it'll come when it comes. We're just kind

831
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 1: of just progressing through training camp and uh, just they're

832
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,520
Speaker 1: doing a great job. They came to training camp in

833
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 1: a great place mentally and physically, and it's been a

834
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 1: he starts to training camp, all right, So does the

835
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 1: defense get to know you really well after a while.

836
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 1: And does that make it that much harder to execute

837
00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 1: out here? Yeah? Absolutely, that's a real thing. Um. But

838
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:13,360
Speaker 1: it's good for both of us, you know. Um, we

839
00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:15,279
Speaker 1: get to know each other. We practice against each other

840
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,640
Speaker 1: all the time. UM, so you have a great understanding

841
00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:21,960
Speaker 1: of both sides. Um. And then really that gives us

842
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 1: a chance to elevate each other on both sides. You

843
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 1: coaching receivers, well, Brevin Jordan's a big part of the

844
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:29,239
Speaker 1: passing game, but he's a tight end. So how does

845
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 1: that factor and how do you guys organize all that? Um? Yeah,

846
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:34,880
Speaker 1: Burbs does a great job in his room, in the

847
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:36,440
Speaker 1: tight end room. I try and do the same thing

848
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 1: in the receiver room. Um. We're all connected to the

849
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:41,719
Speaker 1: vision of the play, um, you know, through pep and

850
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 1: and through the quarterback's eyes. Um, but we're all part

851
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,759
Speaker 1: of it. And uh and and they're doing a job

852
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 1: in that room too, Ben, how's Nico doing in year

853
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,960
Speaker 1: or two? For him? More confident? Um? I can I

854
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 1: can see more confidence from him, um, which you can

855
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:59,480
Speaker 1: understand year two. Um, you know he's he's uh, he's

856
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:02,360
Speaker 1: lived some of it from year one. So really happy

857
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:05,799
Speaker 1: with his confidence both mentally and physically, put a lot

858
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 1: of work in physically, um, in the off season, and

859
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,799
Speaker 1: we're still doing that. How beneficial. Doesn't make it for

860
00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:12,840
Speaker 1: you as a coach to have Brandon Cooks around and

861
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:14,440
Speaker 1: you can point to him and say, hey, do it

862
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,319
Speaker 1: the way he does it. I know not everybody has

863
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 1: that capability, but he's such a worker. Yeah, it's huge. Um,

864
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,400
Speaker 1: it's really huge, especially for the young guys in a room. Um,

865
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:25,480
Speaker 1: you know Nico obviously being one of them. Um, you know,

866
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:30,120
Speaker 1: for them to put their eyes on him and just

867
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,960
Speaker 1: see the way he approaches really every aspect you know,

868
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:38,239
Speaker 1: before practice, um, during practice, after practice, taking care of

869
00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:43,200
Speaker 1: his body, preparations, and how he approaches meetings. Really all

870
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,000
Speaker 1: all phases of it are good for them to watch.

871
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:46,880
Speaker 1: What about Philip dor said, I know he was kind

872
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,920
Speaker 1: of nicked up early, but he's out there making plays. Yeah. Um,

873
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,799
Speaker 1: the knicks come and go, you know, especially during training camp,

874
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:57,080
Speaker 1: but um, he's he's fought back and and uh, we're

875
00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,320
Speaker 1: all kind of run around out there. Um, you know,

876
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,319
Speaker 1: as healthy as we and be. You got some young

877
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:03,600
Speaker 1: guys out there, You got Weddington out there, you have

878
00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:06,479
Speaker 1: Johnny Johnson players like that. What's the most difficult thing

879
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:08,799
Speaker 1: in coming into a camp and trying to make it

880
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,719
Speaker 1: onto the team and just get better every day? I

881
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,680
Speaker 1: think the starting point is known what to do? You know? Um,

882
00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 1: you gotta know what to do before before any of

883
00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 1: your physical traits might actually show themselves. M you know,

884
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,239
Speaker 1: so know what to do and compete when you do.

885
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,600
Speaker 1: Um is really the the goal early as a as

886
00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 1: a young player, um, you know, fighting for every spot, um,

887
00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:33,920
Speaker 1: know what to do? Compete every snap, um, and be

888
00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 1: ready to go. Man, how do you guys decide how

889
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:38,839
Speaker 1: much each player is going to play? Because each group

890
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:42,439
Speaker 1: is different and the units are different. Do you get

891
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:45,359
Speaker 1: to give input in that situation? How does that work? Yeah?

892
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:48,440
Speaker 1: We all, we all, uh you know, talk about how

893
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:51,279
Speaker 1: we want to approach each game through the preseason and

894
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:52,920
Speaker 1: and how much time we want to put in. And

895
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 1: each game is different, each player is different really to

896
00:41:56,239 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 1: be honest, um, so um you know that's uh um,

897
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:03,799
Speaker 1: that's a challenge, but we all kind of put our

898
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,719
Speaker 1: heads together and do what's best for the team. All right,

899
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:08,560
Speaker 1: who's out here warming these guys up now? Because I

900
00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:10,839
Speaker 1: don't think Nick's throwing the ball anymore. And I don't

901
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:12,960
Speaker 1: know if Dylan Thompson is or not. So you have

902
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,400
Speaker 1: so many former quarterbacks on this so we do fall staffs.

903
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:19,520
Speaker 1: No shortage, No shortage of arms uh an individual uh

904
00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:23,400
Speaker 1: from from coaches and and people within the building. We

905
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:24,920
Speaker 1: do we have. We have a lot of people. They

906
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:29,719
Speaker 1: can they can, they can help um so uh yeah, no,

907
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 1: no shortage of arms, including my own. All right, who's

908
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:35,799
Speaker 1: got the best arm out there? Come on? You know

909
00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:41,080
Speaker 1: Dylan still has some zip for sure. Nick won't want

910
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:43,000
Speaker 1: me to call him old, but he's probably lost a

911
00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:45,120
