1
00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:08,800
Speaker 1: Now times to dig in to what happened.

2
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:13,760
Speaker 2: It's Texans Monday, presented by Houston Methodist and Off.

3
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 1: Woody to the right, both hands on the ball.

4
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 2: He's down just short of the line of scrimmage, and

5
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:21,920
Speaker 2: the clock will run and it's basically over.

6
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 1: It's sinked with the play clock.

7
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 2: As the Texans are gonna do it today. They are

8
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:33,720
Speaker 2: gonna beat the Indianapolis Colts. Houston has won its fourth straight,

9
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:35,519
Speaker 2: knocking off.

10
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,479
Speaker 1: The Horseshoe on the road one to win.

11
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 2: CJ returns and shines and the Texans defense makes a

12
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,840
Speaker 2: huge stop at the moment of truth. Houston now seven

13
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 2: and five with the Chiefs on the road up next.

14
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, let's go. It's on, baby. Four in a

15
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 2: row and seven of nine. The Houston Texans are on

16
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 2: a row. And it's really a beautiful thing to see

17
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 2: after the way this thing started. And in any case

18
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,760
Speaker 2: at all, you're seven and five, you're game off the

19
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 2: lead in the AFC South. Two teams tied for the

20
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,399
Speaker 2: lead in Jacksonville. My gosh, we'll get to them. We

21
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 2: were supposed to remove their souls after that come from

22
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 2: behind win, but apparently their souls are intact. And they're

23
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 2: still winning. But that's another problem. We'll get to it.

24
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 2: We're gonna need some help to derail them because the

25
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 2: Texans are gunning for the AFC South title. Something that

26
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 2: four weeks ago. If I had said that, you'd say

27
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 2: you need medical attention, Mark, But I don't because I'm

28
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 2: right here we are today and by the way, we're

29
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 2: on YouTube as well as the air weeks.

30
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:42,680
Speaker 1: We were right.

31
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,119
Speaker 3: We were we would be we would have been right,

32
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 3: we would have been believing, not as you met both

33
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 3: of them.

34
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 2: No, I gotta say that four weeks ago, I was thinking, Okay,

35
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 2: maybe you can get in as a wild card.

36
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: The Colts are rolling.

37
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 2: I knew that the Colts would get into some stormy

38
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 2: seas with the schedule.

39
00:01:58,600 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: That I know about what's happened.

40
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 2: I don't know about Daniel Jones looking this bad, and

41
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 2: by this bat I mean he just does not look

42
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 2: as good as he did.

43
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 3: Really well, what I tell you here for the game,

44
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 3: he was not I said him. For the game, I said, guys,

45
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 3: I don't think he can get out of the pocket.

46
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 3: He cannot, he can't move in a small space. But

47
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,119
Speaker 3: if you force him out of the pocket, he's either

48
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 3: gonna throw it away, take a sack, throw a yolo ball.

49
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 1: He might throw in to you, but he is not running.

50
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:25,639
Speaker 1: He's not going anywhere.

51
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 2: He's a pretty good passer. I mean that throwed to

52
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 2: Pierce and the end zone was fantastic, alliance. I mean,

53
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 2: he had some nice throws yesterday, but that really limits

54
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 2: him or anybody who has that part of his game

55
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,359
Speaker 2: as a weapon. And Jones has always been a good runner.

56
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 2: Now he fumbles sometimes, and we all know that he

57
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 2: is eight on the year. And the Texans had no

58
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 2: takeaways yesterday, which is interesting. They're remindus one. But they're

59
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 2: tied for second in the league in turnover margin, which

60
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 2: is interesting as well. Yep, and now they're winning. There's

61
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 2: seven and five, and it's it's been a week to

62
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 2: week thing. But a few weeks ago you felt this

63
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,799
Speaker 2: sort of like, especially at three and five. I mean,

64
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,920
Speaker 2: my gosh, where's this thing going? You knew you had

65
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 2: to climb out of the hole. You knew that you

66
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 2: had a chance to do it, but you knew how

67
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 2: tough the schedule was going to be.

68
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 1: And they're handling it.

69
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 2: They beat Jacksonville, Tennessee. Okay, fine, but you beat Buffalo

70
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:13,519
Speaker 2: at home.

71
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 1: Now you beat the.

72
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 2: Colts at their place, incredible stuff, and now you have

73
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 2: the Kingdom. You have to go up there, and they're desperate.

74
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,799
Speaker 2: This is their last stand. I mean, if they don't

75
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,799
Speaker 2: win this one, a winout doesn't even guarantee that they

76
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 2: get in, considering the tie breakers that they won't have

77
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 2: going their way losses to Buffalo and the Houston Texans.

78
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 2: Buffalo is another one. Pittsburgh, my gosh, couldn't help us

79
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 2: out on one day. But anyway, a problem to be

80
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 2: dealt with later. There are so many different things that

81
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 2: could happen in the remaining five games. We're not even

82
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 2: talking three four ago. We're talking five games to go.

83
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 2: Narratives can be completely rewritten, including this one. You got

84
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 2: to keep this thing going because it's so positive right now.

85
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 2: Johnny the defense doing what they're doing. CJ returns and yeah,

86
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 2: we saw the interception, we all saw it. But I

87
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 2: thought he played well. I thought some of those throws

88
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 2: were fantastic.

89
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 1: And if we didn't play a C game, I can

90
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 1: tell you that. Yeah, I don't think so.

91
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 2: I think there was definitely B B plus what how Look,

92
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 2: I don't know what grade to put on it.

93
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 1: You know what it is.

94
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 2: You know, my grade is dub W. That's my grade

95
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 2: on the CJ. Strouds Exactly. You got the win, and

96
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 2: yeah you got that turnover, but it was early enough

97
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 2: where you overcame it. It wasn't like you did it

98
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter and oh my gosh, they're gonna

99
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 2: score the go ahead touchdown or something like that. And

100
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 2: they responded after that, after the pick and the ensuing touchdown,

101
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 2: they responded with one of their own. They got it

102
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 2: in with Nick Chubb red zone touchdown, headline beautiful And

103
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 2: I gotta admit I feel it too. Every time they

104
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 2: get inside the ten, it's like, okay, here we are, here,

105
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 2: we are again. And I actually use a share in

106
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 2: Peter Seto reference on the broadcast last week. Might have

107
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 2: I said, you know, like they would sing, here we

108
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 2: are again inside the ten, and we need to put

109
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 2: the ball in the enzone, and they did with Nick Chubb.

110
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 4: By the way.

111
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's frustrating when you get down there and

112
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 3: you're like, oh boy, what's gonna happen? Now, what's gonna

113
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 3: happen next?

114
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 1: Creativity?

115
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:09,280
Speaker 4: All right?

116
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 1: So yub Nico Collin, Well.

117
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 3: The thing is is with the Chubb play, that was

118
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,039
Speaker 3: just a cracked toss. I mean, that's a that's a

119
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 3: staple run play they have, and they just wiped out

120
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 3: that whole side and it was It was interesting because

121
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 3: that whole play is coming right at me and I'm

122
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 3: looking at it, going, well, I think they got this.

123
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 3: They got it, and all of a sudden, Nick turned

124
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,839
Speaker 3: it up. It's like, well all right, And the same

125
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 3: thing with Nico. As soon as Nico got the ball,

126
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 3: I said, and I said, in your ear, probably like

127
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,159
Speaker 3: the five yard line, like he's in he's got this

128
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 3: because he turned it up and it was like there's

129
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 3: nobody here.

130
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he got this. They did a great job.

131
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 1: I don't know who. I think X was one of them.

132
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 3: X was making a block on the outside guy and

133
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 3: then whoever pulled around helped X, and then the corner

134
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 3: jumped back outside, so he basically blocked himself on that play.

135
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,919
Speaker 3: So Nico turned it up and then there was extra

136
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 3: point time. So okay, let's handle a couple of things here.

137
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 3: The officiating. The Colts fans have been a little upset

138
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 3: about the officiating.

139
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 2: Well, I want to go right here first though, were

140
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 2: you under the Okay, so that's how I was going

141
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 2: to start the upright for the So I get back there,

142
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 2: and a lot of times I kind of stand in

143
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 2: the middle so I can see it.

144
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 3: But I moved a little bit closer to the right

145
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 3: up right because that was our sideline.

146
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:22,279
Speaker 1: So I was right.

147
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,679
Speaker 3: I got right under the upright where the ball went over.

148
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 1: Wait, I thought it went over the left up right?

149
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 1: Well to you left me right?

150
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 4: Oh?

151
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 3: Okay, Remember we think opposite. I have to think opposite

152
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 3: when I tell you.

153
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 2: Why, you have to flip your mind.

154
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 3: So, okay, the upright you're looking at on TV, the

155
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 3: left up right?

156
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, so to me was on the right.

157
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 3: Anyhow, I was maybe three yards behind the ref and

158
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 3: the ball well, I mean like I don't know, maybe

159
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 3: whatever whatever enough close enough to him As the ball

160
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 3: is going over me. If the upright had gone straight

161
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 3: to the roof, it would have hit the upright.

162
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 1: Okay, would have hit the upright, but would have hit

163
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: the upright I promise you to hit. But here's the thing.

164
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 3: That three yards difference makes a lot of difference where

165
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 3: that ball is going. Because the way the ball is

166
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 3: cutting in at his angle. I could understand why he

167
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 3: thought it was good. But I stand back there to

168
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 3: tell you it's good. It's wide right, it's white. I

169
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 3: didn't say anything because I didn't know for the longest

170
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 3: time it went right directly, I mean directly. If you said, hey,

171
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 3: we're gonna put the upright to the to the ceiling, Kime,

172
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 3: you hit that and we win a game for the

173
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 3: next ten years straight, he would have won us a

174
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 3: game for the next ten year straight because he would

175
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 3: have hit it right square and that upright. But I

176
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 3: think what he saw was because he's three yards further

177
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 3: than me, he's right under it.

178
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: He's directly under it, so he saw.

179
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 3: And the rule is the ball has to be inside

180
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 3: the out side of the upright right because it you know,

181
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 3: you don't have up human error here, right. But I

182
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 3: think as close as that was, I think by the

183
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 3: letter of the law, he was good.

184
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 4: It was good.

185
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 2: Well, so here's the thing. Have we seen a replay

186
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 2: because I haven't seen it. Look, I'm doing the game,

187
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 2: and I saw what the TV people showed in the moment,

188
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 2: and I haven't seen one after the straight up. Okay,

189
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 2: why aren't there cameras on the uprights? If this is

190
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 2: so important? First of all, well, now there might be yeah,

191
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 2: why not we got cameras everyone else, but throw up

192
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 2: there with a with a you know, wi fi or they.

193
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,719
Speaker 3: Showed the replay, but they didn't show a zoomed in Look.

194
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 3: You know a lot of times on s n F

195
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,319
Speaker 3: they'll show like a zoomed in replay of the ball.

196
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 2: The CBSC team, well it's not c. I don't want

197
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 2: to call those guys. See I say, the number two

198
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 2: team and the.

199
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 3: Number one team. In my book, those two are so

200
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 3: much better. Thanksgiving, I just mark I was. I would

201
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 3: listen to Iron and JJ a thousand times over.

202
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 2: I like Harlan and Iron are pretty much even as

203
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 2: far as the teams go, in my opinion. I don't

204
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 2: know how they rank them. Nansen Rollmar I think it JJ.

205
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 2: Those guys do a great job. J JJ called it

206
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 2: fair and and he said they he said the Colts

207
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 2: got hosed on the p.

208
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 1: I okay, well let's hit to the p. I hang on,

209
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:20,199
Speaker 1: just to.

210
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 2: Put the upright to bed here. No, look straight up.

211
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:25,960
Speaker 2: So anybody who thinks, oh it's clearly no, it's not.

212
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 2: You don't have the angle.

213
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: You don't know.

214
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 3: Being the ref for the two that had the best look,

215
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 3: and you know, seventy thousand people in there and.

216
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 2: You don't even have as good a look as the

217
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 2: ref does. That's right right under it.

218
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: He's got the look.

219
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 2: He has an eighty song as well, but it was

220
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 2: she's got the look right anyway, he's got straight up

221
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 2: and right at the moment of truth. It tails after

222
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 2: that clearly out. But on camera, when you're looking at

223
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 2: these replays out, you don't know, you're not.

224
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 3: You have no idea where it's crossing the upright when

225
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,320
Speaker 3: you're looking at it from behind the.

226
00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,680
Speaker 2: Kicker, almost like a strike that kind of tails out,

227
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 2: it catches the zone. Yeah, you got to see it

228
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 2: right when it crosses the plane. That's exactly right. Okay,

229
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 2: go on to the to the PI.

230
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 1: Okay, So there are two pis called in that end

231
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: of the field.

232
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 3: The one on Kaylan, I think everybody saw the ball

233
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 3: was about four or five yards out of bounds, and

234
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 3: Kaylan was frustrated because he felt like Pierce pushed off

235
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 3: when I saw when I saw the angle, I thought

236
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 3: initially it was interference just from my angle. Now I'm

237
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 3: opposite the field on that one. I was on the

238
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:31,839
Speaker 3: other side. What did out in front of me is

239
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 3: on the other side. But I was like, damn it. Yeah,

240
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 3: I did not see what the ball landed, and I

241
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 3: didn't see it until I watched the game or I

242
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 3: watched the highlight of it later.

243
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 1: I was like, that ball hit the white.

244
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 3: So on my on the sideline, there's a white dotted line,

245
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 3: there's a yellow dotted line.

246
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: Those are about.

247
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 3: Four or five yards from the sideline. So when the

248
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 3: ball hits the white, that's four yards out of bounds.

249
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,439
Speaker 3: And so for that reason, the ref could have just gone, hey,

250
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 3: it's on Kesh, no interference. Now they would have lost

251
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 3: their mind. But by the letter of law, the ball's uncatchable,

252
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 3: that's not interference. The other part of it is Kaylan

253
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 3: was pretty convinced that Pierce pushed off. Doesn't matter matter.

254
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,680
Speaker 1: I know, but that's why I'm saying, Kaylan.

255
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 3: As soon as Pierce pushed off, Kaylan grabbed his arm

256
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 3: and Pierce did the right thing, which is.

257
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 1: You go down, yeah, you flail, and he got the call.

258
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 3: And then they hit Warren an X one and the

259
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 3: way you go okay, So they got that one. So

260
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:31,960
Speaker 3: the past interference on Kenny Moore that they're crying about

261
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:37,319
Speaker 3: the most. What was interesting to me was when the

262
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 3: foul happened, or what I thought it happened, X and more,

263
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,440
Speaker 3: where the ball was going, where X was it was

264
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:48,079
Speaker 3: at the fourteen yard line, But if you go back

265
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,320
Speaker 3: and look at it, they spotted the ball at the seventeen.

266
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:52,960
Speaker 1: Which is where they thought the penalty was.

267
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 3: Which is exactly where they thought the penalty was. And

268
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 3: that's what I thought, and that is that Kenny Moore

269
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 3: grabbed X. If you look at it, watch the play

270
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 3: all the way through. He grabs X's right arm at

271
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,959
Speaker 3: about the seventeen yard line when the ball is in

272
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 3: the air. So when they break, that's when they showed

273
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 3: it on the video board. And when they broke, Moore

274
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 3: had already dropped his hand, so it doesn't look like

275
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 3: Kenny Moore makes contact with him at all.

276
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,680
Speaker 1: So early they saw was that part.

277
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:27,080
Speaker 3: And I will say the Colts video crew did a

278
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 3: hell of a job of putting up on the video

279
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,439
Speaker 3: board plays that would.

280
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 1: In sense that crowd.

281
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, there was one play there's a tackle I think

282
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 3: I think Kayln made a tackle and Kaylyn and Lasser

283
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 3: came up to tackle Taylor and Kaylan he hit Taylor's

284
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 3: the top of Taylor's helmet his hand and he immediately

285
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 3: brought it back down, but they froze it, yeah, with

286
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,439
Speaker 3: his hand on his heart, and they went crazy again.

287
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 3: So I gave the Colts video crew a ton of

288
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 3: credits for getting those replays up on the board and

289
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:05,319
Speaker 3: just inciting a riot basically. But it was past interference

290
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 3: because Kenny Moore did grab x early early. But when

291
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 3: the ball was in the air, by definition, that's past interference.

292
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:15,319
Speaker 3: If had it not been before the ball was thrown,

293
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,199
Speaker 3: you could have just called flat out holding. You know,

294
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 3: it was thrown by the back judge who has the

295
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 3: best view of that play.

296
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 2: Right, So you're saying early on, I'm eager you don't

297
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 2: have the L twenty two yet, right, I haven't seen it, no, okay,

298
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 2: but I'm eager to see him, you know when you

299
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 2: have it, So does you show me these things? So

300
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 2: I want to see that. You know what that is though,

301
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 2: what the Colt video crew does. It's the opposite of baseball,

302
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,719
Speaker 2: because anybody's been to an Astros game knows what do

303
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 2: you want an Astros game? Were replays and then it'll

304
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,840
Speaker 2: show enough because it's a baseball umpire thing or whatever.

305
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: They are in.

306
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,560
Speaker 2: Cahoots like, we're not gonna We're not gonna upset the

307
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 2: crowd here. Let's not go too crazy. But in a

308
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,319
Speaker 2: football game, it's let's show everything. And to freeze that

309
00:13:56,400 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 2: moment with Bullock is really nasty, but okay, clever on there.

310
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 1: They showed the PI of Kaylin in slow motion.

311
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 2: They feel like they got totally host but they ignored

312
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 2: the PI that should have been wiped out that they

313
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 2: called on the Texans, that it led to a touchdown

314
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 2: as well. So come on now, And there are numerous

315
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 2: I'll say at least two false starts that were not

316
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 2: called on the Colts.

317
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 3: Oh god, Brighten Smith pulled up on I can't remember.

318
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 3: Maybe in Pierce's touchdown Rhyman two.

319
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 1: I think it was. I don't know one of them.

320
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 1: I don't know.

321
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 2: I might have said the brak Smith was somebody picked

322
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 2: up early. I thought, oh, flap, and it didn't arrive.

323
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 2: I think I think it's in my call and uh,

324
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 2: and I'm trying.

325
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 1: Not to be funny because you guys said it and

326
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: I was.

327
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 3: I was literally about to whisper in your ear. They

328
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 3: pulled up early because it was on my side, and

329
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 3: it was it was the now.

330
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 2: I love Jean Peterson, you know Rockets legend announcer. Uh,

331
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 2: he would work in and Elijah in the post filed

332
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 2: no call and.

333
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 1: He he tunks it. You know, he just would work

334
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: in it. I think I had like.

335
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 2: Fall start not called anyway, here's a touchdown pass. You know,

336
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 2: I'm trying not to be that way. But Geane was

337
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 2: so good at that working it in because he had

338
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 2: like a relationship with the officials.

339
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 1: I think they called a tech on Gene once.

340
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 2: I don't want that on me, but it's not gonna

341
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 2: happen in a football game, Johnny. Overall though you ran

342
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 2: the ball for over a hundie yep, and Stroud wasn't

343
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 2: a part of the running game.

344
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 1: And it wasn't like this, you know, Barrage.

345
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 2: They averaged under four Woody and Nick, but they stuck

346
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 2: with it. They threw for two seventy six and there

347
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 2: were some nice ones. And Nico Collins go ahead and

348
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 2: named Magus Oil Stadium Nico Nico Collins Stadium. That's what

349
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 2: we're gonna call it from now on because he owns that.

350
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 1: Please there, t Y Hilton, I love it. Oh, boy,

351
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: he is there. T Y Hilton may see number twelve.

352
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: I watch them thirteen.

353
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 2: I was watching them warm up laqwan treadwell for them.

354
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 2: It's not a fact that where's thirteen. I'm it's so

355
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 2: triggering to me to see that number in a Colt's uniform.

356
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 2: But Pierce has kind of become that in a way,

357
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 2: not all the way because they're not winning these games.

358
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 2: That's four in a row against it that's never happened

359
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 2: in the series.

360
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: Four is a magic number.

361
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 3: Four in a row against Indy, four in a row

362
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 3: at Indy Crazy.

363
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 1: Four in a row in the twenty twenty five season.

364
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 2: Yeap, it is a magic number. That's a beautiful thing.

365
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 2: And I know you like that symmetry with that.

366
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 4: And it's me.

367
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: I know you love that all.

368
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 3: Right about this, if I had have told you these things, Mark,

369
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 3: you're gonna be You're gonna be minus one turnover margin.

370
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 1: Right, You're gonna hold Taylor to eighty five.

371
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 3: Yep, Daniel Jones will throw a touchdown and have a

372
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 3: rating of one o one.

373
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 2: Through two touchdowns, right, yeah, sorry, throw two touchdowns in

374
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 2: a one on one rating.

375
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: You'll only sack him once.

376
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 2: I'm worried and listening to just that, I would say

377
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 2: maybe a close loss.

378
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 1: And it was a close game. Okay, Now let's flip

379
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 1: the script.

380
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 3: Okay, you hold Taylor to eighty five, right, you hold

381
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 3: them to three of ten on third downs, that's big.

382
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 1: You hold them two and eighty one yards big.

383
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 3: You have time of possession of thirty five minutes, they're

384
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,880
Speaker 3: twenty five. Okay, you run for over a hundi, you

385
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 3: pile up three hundred and sixty four total UK.

386
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:15,360
Speaker 2: That's that's saying something like that's going the minus one

387
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 2: and the turnover. Like, if you just give me those

388
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:21,479
Speaker 2: numbers and minus one and turnovers, I'd say, yeah, it's close.

389
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 1: I don't know who won this game. I think it's close.

390
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 2: It's not definitely a Texans, you know, lopsided victory, and

391
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 2: it's not definitely a close victory. But at the end

392
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 2: of the day, the third down number is huge, and

393
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 2: fourth down obviously huge. That last fourth down stop fourth

394
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 2: and nine, and shotpointed this out the play where they

395
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 2: had a third down stop where it was second and

396
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 2: short and they forced a third and seven because of

397
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 2: a TfL by Edwards and Will on a previous possession

398
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,720
Speaker 2: was absolutely monumental because it was a field goal instead

399
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,439
Speaker 2: of a continuation of the tribe. So I think that

400
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 2: was a big moment as well. And those are the

401
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 2: things that Demiko ryans. You know, the video crew led

402
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:07,399
Speaker 2: by Tim bragg here who's the intel guy for Football ops. Uh,

403
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 2: they'll put together a great video. Demiko probably says, I

404
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 2: want this, this, this and this and anything else you

405
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,879
Speaker 2: guys think is noteworthy. Let's go and they'll show it

406
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 2: to the players in the meeting last week, and this

407
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 2: came up in the Demico Ryans pregame interview, which you

408
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 2: always have to hear because there's usually a nugget or

409
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 2: two in there. And we didn't even air this one

410
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 2: on Friday night. We saved it for the pregame show,

411
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:33,920
Speaker 2: which was we want to get turnovers now. They didn't

412
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 2: get the turnovers, but Demiico showed a video to the

413
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,400
Speaker 2: players of Daniel Jones turning the ball over.

414
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:42,920
Speaker 1: And he had eight fumbles going into the game.

415
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,119
Speaker 2: He lost three of them, but through the course of

416
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 2: his career he's turned it over a little bit okay

417
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 2: with even some turnovers for Daniel Jones and Petree picked

418
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:51,880
Speaker 2: him off in a preseason game.

419
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:53,160
Speaker 1: He showed that on the video.

420
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,680
Speaker 2: He just wanted the guys to get used to, Hey,

421
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 2: we're going to take the ballway now. That wasn't a factor,

422
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:02,640
Speaker 2: but the willingness was there and the intensity was there

423
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 2: on defense clearly, and the fact that you were able

424
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 2: to hold Jonathan Taylor to Look, you didn't shut him down,

425
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 2: but you held them below what he's been doing. This

426
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:12,439
Speaker 2: is the number one running back in the league. He

427
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 2: is their bell coow ninety eight percent of the snaps

428
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 2: he's in there, and they were able to stop them

429
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 2: when they needed to most And that was big. This

430
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 2: is the number one defense in the NFL and an

431
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,199
Speaker 2: offense that's climbing getting better. Look the tush push. I

432
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 2: know it didn't work on third and short and fourth

433
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 2: and short, but I love the creativity.

434
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,200
Speaker 1: But a guess it worked earlier and they didn't expect it.

435
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 1: It did awesome.

436
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 2: I thought it was great because guess what the Chiefs

437
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,640
Speaker 2: are looking at that saying, now, we gotta get ready

438
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 2: for this, right, we gotta get ready for that, we

439
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:41,639
Speaker 2: gotta get ready for this, we gotta get ready for

440
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 2: Nico ender around. We got ready for all of it, right,

441
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,240
Speaker 2: They got to get ready for the entire package here.

442
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 2: That's good. Nick Kelly called a good game. Nick Kelly's

443
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 2: been doing a good job. This thing's getting better. It's

444
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 2: common together. It's look, it's a process. It didn't it

445
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,439
Speaker 2: was not the finished product on day one and it

446
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,200
Speaker 2: still isn't the finished product. You know, let's get to

447
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 2: the finished product. But it's getting better. It's going in

448
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 2: the right direction. And with the help of the number

449
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 2: one defense of the NFL. You've got something going on

450
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 2: here with four wins in a row and seven of

451
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 2: your last night, here's the coach after the game on

452
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 2: closing things out.

453
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,359
Speaker 5: We finished wrong, man, it's our defense. They stood up

454
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:19,879
Speaker 5: and made a play, and we were in the same

455
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 5: position last week. Fourth down.

456
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 4: You know, you got to.

457
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,119
Speaker 5: Make a play there, you know, in the red zone.

458
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:27,639
Speaker 5: Guys made a play. Offense had to go and close

459
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 5: it out. Knew we had to run the football there.

460
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 5: They knew we were running the ball, and we did we.

461
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 4: Need to do.

462
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 5: I thought Woody, you know, did an exceptional job there

463
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 5: at the end of the game, closing it out, get

464
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,160
Speaker 5: the first down, and just the way he turned out yards,

465
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:42,639
Speaker 5: the way he protected the football.

466
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 4: He did a great job.

467
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 2: All game Woody and the line, Johnny, this is their

468
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 2: best line.

469
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,440
Speaker 1: It's working. Let's go with it.

470
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,959
Speaker 2: You know, Trent is at this stage of his career

471
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:59,639
Speaker 2: really helping. And you know, I worry about guys, you know,

472
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 2: added advancing football age, if they're gonna be able to

473
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,400
Speaker 2: hang in there with the whole thing. But you brought

474
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 2: them along at just the right time when you needed

475
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 2: a surge. He's providing part of this at right tackle,

476
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 2: his part of it, and the line is creating some

477
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:14,160
Speaker 2: good things for these guys.

478
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 1: I said it the day at practice. I saw it.

479
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 1: This is the best five this is the best five years.

480
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,359
Speaker 1: It's not going to be perfect.

481
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 3: And to your point, though, we get accused of being homers,

482
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 3: which we are technically because I don't care. But whatever,

483
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 3: it wasn't perfect yesterday because I know there are people

484
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 3: in the car screaming what.

485
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 1: Happened in too many drive yesterday? What happened in to

486
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 1: too many drive? They get out of my laying car, Yeah,

487
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:46,640
Speaker 1: and they're freaking out about that. Look it. I will

488
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:48,679
Speaker 1: admit the two minute drive before the end and.

489
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:52,400
Speaker 2: A half, well, that was an that was not poor

490
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 2: execution of a two minute drive.

491
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 3: That was what they were like that they could have

492
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 3: gone and stolen three points. Then they get three points

493
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 3: to start to set and half. Now it's sixteen to six.

494
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,200
Speaker 3: Now you really got them chasing. And they answered, I'll

495
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,639
Speaker 3: give them credit. They answered, but what did I tell

496
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 3: you during a break or during a break or during

497
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 3: a break? I don't know if I said this on

498
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,360
Speaker 3: the air, but went back, I looked at the cold

499
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:19,199
Speaker 3: schedule list, said, hey, Mark, they went to Berlin and

500
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 3: they went to overtime. Then they come back from Berlin,

501
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,879
Speaker 3: they got to buy. But then they go to Kansas

502
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,439
Speaker 3: City and what happened? They went to overtime again. And

503
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,200
Speaker 3: I said, this is gonna show itself at some point.

504
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 3: You go overtime, you have that trip to Berlin, you

505
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 3: go overtime again. Then you got to face us and

506
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 3: we're physical on both sides of the ball. It's gonna

507
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 3: show itself. And when did it start to really pop?

508
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 3: In the second half, the Texans started pushing around a

509
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 3: I think a fatigue team Sauce goes out of the game.

510
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 3: Now they're got to reconfigure the secondary and the Texans

511
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 3: just that's where death by a thousand paper cuts comes in.

512
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 3: That was a tired football team mentally and physically, and

513
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 3: you just brought it to him in the second half

514
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,960
Speaker 3: and they really didn't have the answers to stop you,

515
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 3: and the offense was able to move the ball and

516
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,879
Speaker 3: do some things. And it also helped that CJ's shaking

517
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 3: off the rust in the second half. I thought he

518
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,600
Speaker 3: played as good at thirty minutes as he could possibly play.

519
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 3: And then you get the defensive stop and then you

520
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:28,639
Speaker 3: run the clock out.

521
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 1: Now you want to see Demko Ryan smile on.

522
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 3: The Coaches show, say hey, coach, you get the defensive

523
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 3: stop and then you run the clock out of again.

524
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: I watched the smile on his face.

525
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:42,920
Speaker 2: I just want to be cleaner so I don't have

526
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:44,400
Speaker 2: to look at the play clock in the game play

527
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:46,359
Speaker 2: figure out that it's sank And you were helping me

528
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 2: out with that team.

529
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, Mark, I told Aaron on the bus the way home.

530
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 3: I have never seen that in football. I have never

531
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:57,400
Speaker 3: seen that play clock and the game clock exactly synced up.

532
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:02,199
Speaker 1: I was like, whoa it was? It was exactly synced up.

533
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 4: Yeah.

534
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 2: I was like, well, late, I can't do a great

535
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,640
Speaker 2: dramatic Oh yes I can final call.

536
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: Because I was I was like, it's syncd up. Does

537
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 1: that mean the game is over?

538
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 3: And that's why that outside zone was a good play

539
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,360
Speaker 3: to call because that thing takes.

540
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 1: The time, little bit of time.

541
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:19,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, the math was, you know, you're figuring it out

542
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 2: on the fly. Obviously the first down was huge. They

543
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 2: still had a time out, Johnny. Time of possession.

544
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:27,679
Speaker 1: Thirty five minutes.

545
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 2: Sonny, this is a top three time of possession team

546
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 2: in the league. All these thirteen fourteen play drives where

547
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,120
Speaker 2: they might or might not get a touchdown. Sometimes it's

548
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 2: just a field goal, but you eight clock and you

549
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 2: got the other team's defense not worn out, but you

550
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:46,879
Speaker 2: taxed them a little bit along the way, and that

551
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 2: does have a cumulative effect.

552
00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:49,440
Speaker 1: So that's good.

553
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 4: C J.

554
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 2: Stroud after the game, you want to talk about closing

555
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,159
Speaker 2: things out, playing in the clutch here he is.

556
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,199
Speaker 6: Yeah, like I just told him, he's just like, you know,

557
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 6: scoring a raison and is key, you know, making three,

558
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,200
Speaker 6: you know seven, you know, and our defense has always

559
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 6: held us up. So like, you know, I don't know,

560
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 6: they always will say, you know, they want to clean

561
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 6: things up as well, but like as offense, you know,

562
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 6: I think we just that's the keys, Like if we

563
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 6: want to win games in the NFL, you know, you

564
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 6: got to score in the rezon you know, And I

565
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 6: thought these last couple of games, you know, our offense

566
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 6: has been able to do.

567
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 4: That at a higher level.

568
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 6: So you know, and even like today, like even not

569
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 6: like having a touchdown. You know, it's not like super cool,

570
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 6: but it's like we're driving the ball down, you know,

571
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 6: and then we're punching it in. And that's the best

572
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:30,800
Speaker 6: feeling in the world.

573
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 4: So you know, as long.

574
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 6: As you know, we're doing our job that way, and

575
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,280
Speaker 6: it takes forty plays or it takes too like it

576
00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,159
Speaker 6: is what it is. So I think, you know, just

577
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,399
Speaker 6: being being on our p's and q's and xeq at

578
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:42,119
Speaker 6: a high level is why you see a little bit

579
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 6: of difference.

580
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 1: Dude.

581
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 2: Touchdown passes look prettier on the stat sheet, absolutely, but

582
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 2: touchdowns anyway really good for the team, and that's what counts.

583
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,120
Speaker 2: He threw for two seventy six. I thought he looked

584
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 2: really good. This is his first game back in a

585
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 2: tough environment. This is a gotta have a game against

586
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:02,440
Speaker 2: the freaking Colts. Look good, Let's go go to Kansas City.

587
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:04,360
Speaker 2: See what you can do and We'll talk to Ndy

588
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 2: Kalou about that. Andrey, where's gonna be on at nine?

Speaker 1: Now back to Texans Monday.

597
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:40,440
Speaker 2: Four than nine Colts of the Houston thirty one yard line,

598
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,639
Speaker 2: Taylor of the backfield, Jones and the gun punch formation

599
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 2: whiteside right pierced to the short side left. Jones takes

600
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 2: the snap, Jones firing downfield, Tip Dad incomplete.

601
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 1: The Colts turn it over on downs. Houston has the ball,

602
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 1: Stingley getting in the way.

603
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 2: The Texans have it up for twenty to sixteen, but

604
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 2: a minute forty five to go.

605
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 1: Can I ask you something? Yeah, you haven't thrown at

606
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:10,680
Speaker 1: the All Pro All Game, No Game. Once nine you

607
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 1: decide to go to him, what are you doing? What

608
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:14,879
Speaker 1: are you doing?

609
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 2: The Texans surprised him with the coverage or whatever, and

610
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,679
Speaker 2: that was the best option in their eyes or whatever.

611
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I totally get going for it there.

612
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,879
Speaker 2: Oh, I mean going for that because they had still

613
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 2: had three timeouts right there.

614
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,679
Speaker 1: But why didn't you throw to Pierce? Pierce was? Pierce

615
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:32,280
Speaker 1: was hot? He was Steph Curry high yesterday he was,

616
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 1: and then you threw it to Draymond? Yeah, what are

617
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 1: you doing?

618
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 4: Wait?

619
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 1: Who is the attended receiver game Pittman, not Draymond.

620
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 2: But in that game they did. They're not paying Pierce,

621
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 2: They're paying Draymond.

622
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, but they're gonna have to change that because

623
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,520
Speaker 1: Pierce was that's my new nickname for Pierce. Four for

624
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,400
Speaker 1: seventy eight, Pittman one for thirteen.

625
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,439
Speaker 3: It was not It was not a great day for

626
00:27:57,880 --> 00:27:59,639
Speaker 3: How about the Seahawks screens to.

627
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 1: Pittman and they like that. They weren't running them.

628
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:03,639
Speaker 3: They weren't running those They threw that screen to Taylor.

629
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 3: How about shoot the Seahawks Vikings games. JSN has two

630
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:10,040
Speaker 3: for twenty three. Justin Jefferson has two for four.

631
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,959
Speaker 1: That's all that Jayson yesterday, Yeah.

632
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,160
Speaker 3: They both held two for twenty three. Yeah, because Max

633
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 3: Brosmurg kept throwing big six.

634
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:19,920
Speaker 2: I mean, the one was like the best pick six

635
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:24,479
Speaker 2: even that Will I saw you see the Bill Levins moment. Uh,

636
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,720
Speaker 2: Eddy Kalou joins us right now, twelve year NFL veteran

637
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 2: part of our Texans preseason TV crew of course, Texans

638
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 2: legend and d So here we go, another great defensive performance.

639
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 2: You gotta call it that you're on the road. You

640
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 2: keep Jonathan Taylor in check, he doesn't go off.

641
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:43,240
Speaker 1: What did you see?

642
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 7: Good morning, good morning, good morning once again. And you know,

643
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 7: it's great to have CJ. Stroud back and the offense

644
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,160
Speaker 7: is kind of continuing to pick up the pace. But

645
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 7: this defense has proven to be a historically great defense,

646
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,120
Speaker 7: especially when you compare it to other Texans teams. And

647
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 7: it's the little thing. I mean, I know John and Mark,

648
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:03,800
Speaker 7: I know you saw all this, but I know John

649
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 7: could appreciate this. That pick on Rankings sack, so oh yeah,

650
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 7: the d line stunt where Audrey is supposed to pick

651
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 7: the center and he just blasted the center. The pocket

652
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 7: collapsed and Rankings gets the sack. But it was such

653
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 7: a team sack because of the way the front floor rushed.

654
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 7: I mean, this defense is a real deal. And shout

655
00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 7: out to A. Z's out Shire because he's still making

656
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 7: plays where you're like, oh, you probably shouldn't have done that,

657
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 7: But what he's telling you is, Hey, I don't care

658
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 7: about what people think about me. I don't care about

659
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 7: the past penalties. I'm still gonna play my brand of football.

660
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,840
Speaker 7: And it just resonates throughout that entire defense.

661
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was interesting when he was down on the ground,

662
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 3: you know, with the concussion, there were than he kind of.

663
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 1: Was a little danged. There was a buzz in the

664
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 1: crowd kind of like he could kind.

665
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 3: Of feel it, like you're not supposed to cheer for

666
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 3: guys that are injured.

667
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 1: But the Colts knew exactly who that was. That crowd

668
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 1: had a little nasty and it finally I gave him credit.

669
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 1: Was kind of like, nice job, guys, you got a

670
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: little nasty. Yeah, it was. It was.

671
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 3: It was not the wine and cheese Crowder, I don't

672
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 3: know the whatever their shame to shrimp cocktail sauce Y

673
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 3: shrimp cocktail sauce.

674
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 1: Our group of our group of people that went with us.

675
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 3: As sponsors, they went to Saint almost. I thought it

676
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,239
Speaker 3: was overrated, but you know, you gotta do it.

677
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 1: It's not overrated.

678
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:26,880
Speaker 2: It is over rated. It's an experience. It's over If

679
00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 2: you're an indie, you gotta do it. At least you

680
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 2: got to let him do what fun.

681
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 3: Indy the the the defense yesterday, if I'd have told

682
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 3: you that they were only going to have one sack

683
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 3: going in, especially against the guy that's got a fibula,

684
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,240
Speaker 3: as Shane Steiken called it, would you have been worried.

685
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 1: And given answer that?

686
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 3: But also, how did you feel like they got enough

687
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 3: pressure on Jones even though they only got the one sack.

688
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 7: No, I definitely would have been worried because I was

689
00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 7: watching the game here in Waco, so of course I

690
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 7: was sending to y'all call the game, and John, you

691
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 7: did an awesome job pregame talking about Daniel Jones. He

692
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 7: still doesn't look one hundred percent. He still has a

693
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 7: little bit of limb. So when I heard you say

694
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 7: that before the game, I was just smiling, like, Oh,

695
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,760
Speaker 7: we're gonna have another eight sack game. So if you

696
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 7: would have known me then with everything that you said

697
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 7: pregame that they were still only going to have one sack,

698
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 7: I would have been concerned, But then the way it

699
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 7: played out and the fact that they focused on Taylor

700
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 7: and they were able to look like Mark said, slow

701
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 7: him down, You don't completely stop the guy like that.

702
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 7: He still had over eighty yards. You know, he still

703
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 7: had what considered to be a good day. But when

704
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 7: you when you factor in everything and all the big

705
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 7: plays they made, win and counted, I would have been

706
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 7: okay with it. But yes, going into that game, knowing

707
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 7: that Daniel Jones wasn't healthy, I would expected.

708
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 2: More than one sack and d thoughts on CJ's return

709
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 2: has to pick twenty two of thirty five. He throws

710
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,960
Speaker 2: for two seventy six in the game and make some

711
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 2: big throws along the way.

712
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 7: You know what I like about it, Mark, He's knocking

713
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 7: the rust off off and I still expect them to

714
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 7: have better games. I still expect him to play even better,

715
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 7: play even more lights out, and they still won the

716
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 7: game with him playing. It wasn't pedestrian by any means.

717
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 7: It was a good game. Like you said, one interception

718
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 7: but no touchdowns. He was sacked a couple of times.

719
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 7: I can still see him elevating his game and for

720
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 7: him to be kind of getting back into the groove

721
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 7: of things and still be able to put up those

722
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 7: type of numbers. He understood who his number one target is.

723
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 7: You know, Nico Collins every week is really solidifying himself

724
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 7: as one of the top wide receivers in the entire

725
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 7: NFL and not just the AFC. I'm actually excited about

726
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 7: it because I'm expecting CJS strive to play even better

727
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 7: when they take on Kansas City, and with the way

728
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 7: the schedule is going, with what this team's trying to accomplish,

729
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,320
Speaker 7: he's going to have to continue to get better. I

730
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 7: actually would have been a little more I would have

731
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:48,600
Speaker 7: been more worthy if he had one of those four

732
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 7: hundred yard games, four touchdowns, no interceptions, where you're thinking, ooh,

733
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 7: is that what it's going to take to win? But

734
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 7: I felt like he had a game that he could

735
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 7: approve upon and they're still winning.

736
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 3: You mentioned Nico ind and it got me thinking because

737
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 3: Nico has been tremendous the last three times at Lucas Oil.

738
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 1: I mean tremendous. They have no answers.

739
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 3: He's one hundred yard year, one hundred plus yards total

740
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 3: offense against them the first two times, like it's like

741
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 3: one ninety.

742
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 1: Last year was like one fifty six. Yesterday he went

743
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 1: over one hundred.

744
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:25,280
Speaker 3: Uh he had ninety eight receiving, and then he had

745
00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 3: the rushing touchdown which put him over one hundred. It

746
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 3: was t Y Hilton for a long time here at

747
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 3: Energy Stadium against the Texans, that one guy that walked

748
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:36,520
Speaker 3: into your building and you're like, oh, this guy when

749
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,960
Speaker 3: you played who was that guy?

750
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 1: For you?

751
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 3: Who was that one guy when you knew we walked

752
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 3: into building not receive. It could be anybody, but you

753
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,520
Speaker 3: just went, oh, this guy, this guy owns us in

754
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 3: our building.

755
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 1: For some reason.

756
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 3: We just can't stop him no matter what running back, quarterback,

757
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 3: wide receiver, whatever it might be. Did you have one

758
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,320
Speaker 3: of those guys when you were playing that you just said,

759
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:00,000
Speaker 3: Oh my god, he's our t Y Hilton slash Nico Collin.

760
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:03,800
Speaker 7: You know, that's such a great question. And it's funny

761
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 7: as you were talking about Nico before even brought up

762
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:08,920
Speaker 7: t Y Hilton, I was like, he's the reverse t

763
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,919
Speaker 7: Y Hilton for the Cold. So I'm glad you brought

764
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 7: that up. You know what, as a defensive lineman, it's

765
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 7: always going to be a quarterback John because we don't

766
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 7: get to appreciate what goes on behind us. And what

767
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 7: I mean by that, you know, whether it was when

768
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 7: I was here in the AFC South or in the

769
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:29,959
Speaker 7: NFC East, if there was that one receiver that would

770
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:33,720
Speaker 7: have a big game, big game, we just it sounds

771
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,319
Speaker 7: crazy to say, but we just wouldn't know. It's more

772
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:40,279
Speaker 7: the quarterback because you're chasing him, and you know, when

773
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 7: you think you're getting a sack, he's still throwing a

774
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 7: thirty yard completion. And for us it was Tom Brady.

775
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 7: I mean even when we had our best defenses. Myself personally,

776
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,800
Speaker 7: I had one of my best games against New England.

777
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:55,800
Speaker 7: One time I actually thought I was sacking Tom Brady.

778
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,040
Speaker 7: I brought him down. I thought it was a sack.

779
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 7: But We're playing in New England and the crowd sharing

780
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:02,799
Speaker 7: and I'm like, I know they're not cheering for me.

781
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 7: And then when I get up, he completed a thirty

782
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:09,239
Speaker 7: yard pass. So for us, it's just more of the quarterback.

783
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 7: And of course, with my time in the Texans, you

784
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 7: could always say Peyton Manning.

785
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,920
Speaker 2: Okay, Andy, what about this team winning four in a

786
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,840
Speaker 2: row right now? What do you think the vibe is

787
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,839
Speaker 2: like inside and the belief that they have that they

788
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:28,360
Speaker 2: can do some really big things down the stretch and beyond.

789
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:34,240
Speaker 2: Now that they're really they're establishing an identity on offense

790
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 2: with this ground game. It's not always as productive as

791
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:39,279
Speaker 2: they want it to be, but they stick with it.

792
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:42,040
Speaker 2: They got CJ back, obviously the defense number one in

793
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:42,399
Speaker 2: the league.

794
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:43,360
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts.

795
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 7: Here's what's crazy. I think as far as the belief

796
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:49,239
Speaker 7: and the confidence they probably felt this way when they

797
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:52,160
Speaker 7: were zero and three, you know, and now is coming

798
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 7: to fruition because a guy like Demiko, he's a little

799
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 7: bit prophetic. He's gonna tell these guys, hey, one game

800
00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 7: at a time, we can still dig ourselves out of

801
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:02,319
Speaker 7: this hole. And when you look at what this team

802
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:05,040
Speaker 7: has been able to accomplish, I don't think that they're surprised.

803
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:07,839
Speaker 7: So Mark, they're probably not thinking to themselves four games

804
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 7: in a row, four games in a row. It's just

805
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,319
Speaker 7: one game at a time. It sounds cliche, you're hear

806
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,839
Speaker 7: it on every level of football, but you just get

807
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,440
Speaker 7: the sense with the Miko, the type of player, the

808
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,920
Speaker 7: type of coach he is now that he's preaching it

809
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 7: and they're really believing in it. Right now, They're only

810
00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 7: focus is Kansas City Chiefs, and it's the fans on

811
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,400
Speaker 7: the outside looking in that could appreciate this role. I

812
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 7: would not be surprised if they have another three game

813
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 7: you know that, if they win another three games in

814
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 7: a row, because you're just looking at it one game

815
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,799
Speaker 7: at a time, and when you look at the schedule,

816
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 7: there isn't a team on the schedule remaining on the

817
00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:41,520
Speaker 7: schedule where you just say to yourself, there's no way

818
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 7: they can win this game.

819
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 3: Ind it's the Chiefs this week, Sunday night. Everybody's going

820
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 3: to be watching, and it's that guy quarterback. That's probably

821
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 3: the guy I look at every time I see m

822
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 3: across the field like and.

823
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:56,719
Speaker 1: It isn't so much because it's the.

824
00:36:56,640 --> 00:37:01,719
Speaker 3: Seventy yard throw, it's you know, it's the five yard

825
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:05,600
Speaker 3: scramble or whatever. It's the plays he makes with defensive

826
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:09,160
Speaker 3: lineman hanging all over him, Like last year, he's got

827
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:12,680
Speaker 3: Mario Edwards at his ankles falling down and he hits

828
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 3: Kelsey for a touchdown. How maddening is it for the

829
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:20,800
Speaker 3: defensive lineman to face a guy like Mahomes and knowing

830
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:25,160
Speaker 3: that that's the way he plays and that's what he produces.

831
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:28,760
Speaker 3: How much of a different tack does a defensive lineman

832
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 3: do you have to take. You can't hit him up high,

833
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 3: you can't hit him low, but you got to make

834
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:34,759
Speaker 3: sure that you do hit him and bring him to

835
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,799
Speaker 3: the ground. How tough is this for defensive lineman to

836
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:39,320
Speaker 3: go against the guy like him?

837
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,880
Speaker 7: Very very tough because he's so slippery and he's just

838
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 7: a playmaker. You know, He's one of those guys. In

839
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 7: my opinion. I don't know what his stats look like

840
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 7: this season. He's still the best quarterback in the game,

841
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 7: and you get up for a quarterback like Mahomes. But

842
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,960
Speaker 7: here's the thing, John. With the way that the Texans

843
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 7: played and performed against Josh Allen, I think you just

844
00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:00,720
Speaker 7: go out there and treat him like any other quarterback.

845
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 7: You don't start to get in your head, Oh if

846
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 7: I'm too aggressive and I'm not aiming at the upfield shoulder,

847
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,880
Speaker 7: then I might miss a sack. The way they performed

848
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,360
Speaker 7: against Josh Allen, I think they take that same mentality

849
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:14,359
Speaker 7: against Mahomes and say, you know what, We're just gonna

850
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 7: hit him. We're gonna hit him hard, you know, we're

851
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 7: gonna tackle him in a way where we're not holding

852
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:21,439
Speaker 7: on for dear life. We're gonna hit him and knock

853
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,239
Speaker 7: him down so he doesn't have a chance to make

854
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 7: that extra play. But I just feel like you can't.

855
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:28,960
Speaker 7: You have to almost disrespect him and the thought of

856
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:30,160
Speaker 7: him when you go into the game.

857
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:34,399
Speaker 2: Indy, what about the rotation with the defensive lineman. I'm

858
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,799
Speaker 2: looking at the snap count right here, Danil Will and

859
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:41,799
Speaker 2: Sheldon Rankins played sixty three percent of the snaps on

860
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:47,919
Speaker 2: defense and Tommy fifty four, Barnett forty percent. So it's

861
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,880
Speaker 2: a healthy rotation. It's not exactly fifty to fifty with

862
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:54,800
Speaker 2: some of these guys. But I saw some instances where Daneil,

863
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:56,719
Speaker 2: Will and Rankins all came back into the game at

864
00:38:56,760 --> 00:39:00,200
Speaker 2: the same time. Maybe obvious pass rish a pass rush situation,

865
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 2: but your thoughts on the way they rotate things with

866
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 2: the front four.

867
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,640
Speaker 7: I was pleasantly surprised at that, and I actually noticed it, Mark.

868
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 7: I noticed it because every time I'm looking and I'm

869
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 7: watching the game, I'm looking at the trenches, and more

870
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:18,000
Speaker 7: times than I expected, I didn't see Danil, Hunter Will

871
00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 7: Anderson in the game. Yeah, and to the point where

872
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:23,920
Speaker 7: you're saying, as great as those guys play Demico and Co,

873
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:27,160
Speaker 7: they truly trust the entire defensive line. And that's something

874
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,960
Speaker 7: that we've seen since preseason. You know, we talked about

875
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 7: the entire defensive line unit, not just the two superstars,

876
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 7: and how great they were and how they play together.

877
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:39,359
Speaker 7: So when you look at that rotation, especially this late

878
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 7: in the season's gonna bode well for late in the season.

879
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:45,520
Speaker 7: And dare I say the playoffs, because you're not gonna

880
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 7: feel fresh, but you're gonna be that You're gonna be

881
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:49,960
Speaker 7: more fresh than you would be if a guy like

882
00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:53,320
Speaker 7: Daniel Hunter, Will Anderson or playing eighty five ninety percent

883
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:56,080
Speaker 7: of the snaps every single week. So and keep in

884
00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 7: mind they're still making plays. The pocket is still collapsing,

885
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 7: they're still tackled for loss. Is he still kill the

886
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:04,560
Speaker 7: same energy and that's only gonna help you later in

887
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:05,920
Speaker 7: the season as you make that playoff.

888
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 3: Bush a guy that ended up playing one hundred percent

889
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:13,320
Speaker 3: of the plays in his first game back former Baylor

890
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,200
Speaker 3: Bear Jalen Petrie, he played one hundred percent of the

891
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 3: plays he did yesterday. And Mark I would go so

892
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:20,759
Speaker 3: far as to say they needed every single one of

893
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:22,919
Speaker 3: those plays because he was around the ball.

894
00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:24,960
Speaker 1: He had two pass breakups yesterday.

895
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,920
Speaker 3: Andy, I don't know that we can fully put into

896
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:32,720
Speaker 3: words the true essence of the value of Jalen Peatrie,

897
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:34,800
Speaker 3: but I felt like yesterday was a pretty good example

898
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 3: of that.

899
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:35,799
Speaker 1: They blitzed him.

900
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 3: He's playing in coverage, he's making tackles, he does a

901
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 3: little bit of everything, and to have him back, I

902
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 3: feel like he's the chest piece that completes the setback there.

903
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:46,960
Speaker 1: When he's out, they get it done.

904
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:49,719
Speaker 3: But I feel like when he's in they can do

905
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:53,239
Speaker 3: so much more defensively. And I know your son's a

906
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,360
Speaker 3: Baylor Bear, so I know you love Baylor Bears, But

907
00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:57,359
Speaker 3: what do you think about what Jalen Petrie has brought

908
00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 3: to this defense? Brought back to this defense playing one

909
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:01,280
Speaker 3: hundred percent of plays yesterday.

910
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:04,359
Speaker 7: I like it really says ditto to everything you said, John,

911
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 7: I mean it will I think of Jalen Petrie. I

912
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:09,799
Speaker 7: don't like seeing dB next to his name, or as

913
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 7: for safety, you need to put atch athlete. You know,

914
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,120
Speaker 7: he's one of those guys that you can't really define

915
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:17,880
Speaker 7: him by a position. He could play in the box, linebacker,

916
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 7: he could play nickel, he could play safety, and credit

917
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:24,759
Speaker 7: the defensive coordinator, credit Demiko Ryans for really knowing and

918
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:28,360
Speaker 7: understanding how to use him as a defensive specialist, Like

919
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,279
Speaker 7: this is a guy that he just needs to be

920
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 7: around the ball when certain DBS go down, you don't panic.

921
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 7: It's like, Okay, let's just move Jalen, or let's just

922
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:38,480
Speaker 7: use this package where Jalen is covering the edges instead

923
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,359
Speaker 7: of playing inside the box. And that's the reason, that's

924
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 7: why he plays one of the players, because they're going

925
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:46,879
Speaker 7: to use him in so many different ways and this

926
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,000
Speaker 7: is a great time to have a player like that back.

927
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:51,680
Speaker 7: And again, you know I keep talking about not always

928
00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:53,960
Speaker 7: about the stats, but just the presence on the field

929
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:56,239
Speaker 7: and allows you to do so much more with so

930
00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 7: many other guys. I mean, just a welcome sight to

931
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:00,200
Speaker 7: get Jalen Petrie.

932
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,880
Speaker 2: And d one more for you on Sunday, will know

933
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,840
Speaker 2: the matchup for the Kenders Texas Bowl, which is December

934
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:11,160
Speaker 2: twenty seventh here at NRG Stadium. Well, obviously lot of

935
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:13,640
Speaker 2: college things to talk about, but I wanted to go here.

936
00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:16,759
Speaker 2: Where are you on coaches leaving staying once they take

937
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:21,760
Speaker 2: another job? My opinion is just quickly you take another

938
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:26,319
Speaker 2: job by have a nice time. You're not working for

939
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:29,279
Speaker 2: me anymore, you're working for them, So how are you

940
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:31,480
Speaker 2: gonna work for me if you're working for them anyway?

941
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 1: Go on, what do you think?

942
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:35,719
Speaker 7: I agree, one understand with your sentiment on that mark,

943
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:38,560
Speaker 7: But it blows my mind that they have not figured

944
00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:41,680
Speaker 7: out a way to allow coaches and players who are

945
00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:45,560
Speaker 7: going to hit the portal to finish the season before

946
00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 7: you make that transaction, before you make that decision. It

947
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 7: just blows my mind that a guy like Lane Kiffin

948
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 7: can lead Ole Miss to the college football playoffs and

949
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 7: before the playoffs even start, he's taken a job with

950
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 7: LSU and more more power to him. And this is

951
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,440
Speaker 7: not a shot at lank given at all. But I

952
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:06,680
Speaker 7: just can't believe that with all these smart guys and

953
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:09,680
Speaker 7: gals in the room, that they can't figure out a way,

954
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:12,759
Speaker 7: uh to not have these transactions go on. I mean,

955
00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,040
Speaker 7: the NFL does it. The NFL figured out a way

956
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 7: to do it. I just don't see how they cannot

957
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:21,399
Speaker 7: make that happen. It's it's a it's a disgrace to the.

958
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:25,719
Speaker 2: Sports exactly, don't open the portal until whatever date you

959
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:28,160
Speaker 2: determine and then it all can happen.

960
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:31,560
Speaker 3: Well, there's this pesky little thing called school that gets

961
00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:34,400
Speaker 3: in the way of that because of when you start

962
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 3: the second semester and all that kind of stuff.

963
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:40,239
Speaker 2: Oh crap, really have a delayed start. Work it out?

964
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:42,040
Speaker 2: Are you serious?

965
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:45,240
Speaker 1: Keeping it real for the academics in here? But I leez,

966
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:47,360
Speaker 1: I'm choking. We can work this.

967
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:48,200
Speaker 4: That's no.

968
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 3: That's the reason they hide behind. That's the reason they hide.

969
00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 2: Well, Andy, you said there are smart people in the room.

970
00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:57,960
Speaker 2: That was your first mistake. Yeah, they're not smart enough

971
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,120
Speaker 2: to figure this out. They need more smart people. This

972
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:01,280
Speaker 2: is not rocket science.

973
00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 1: Figure it out. Yeah, figure it out, Andy, Thanks so much.

974
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:07,560
Speaker 7: Yet I haven't heard is he actually coaching? Or is

975
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:07,959
Speaker 7: he done?

976
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:08,320
Speaker 4: Will? No?

977
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 1: Is he done? They said, And that's the right thing.

978
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:13,360
Speaker 1: That's the right thing. They hired the defensive coordinators. The

979
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:14,360
Speaker 1: permanent head.

980
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:16,360
Speaker 2: Coach, Steve Fisher called from Michigan and said, that's the

981
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:16,719
Speaker 2: right thing.

982
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:18,440
Speaker 1: There you go. Okay, thanks a lot, m D. We

983
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:22,560

Speaker 2: Okay, coming up, what's it gonna take They can't look ahead,

986
00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:28,160
Speaker 2: but we will look ahead.

987
00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:31,000
Speaker 1: We're gonna look ahead. And what has everybody else got?

988
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:32,919
Speaker 2: You're a game off the lead in the AFC South

989
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 2: and two teams are tied for first and they're not you.

990
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:39,480
Speaker 2: Let's get to it next year on Texans Radio Now

991
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 2: More Texans Monday.

992
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,200
Speaker 1: Nick jomp in the backfield. Cj Ether center, first and

993
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 1: goal inside the five. Stover in motion to the left.

994
00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:49,920
Speaker 1: Here's the toss to Chuck needs some blocking. Chob to

995
00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 1: the outside, Chub to.

996
00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:51,720
Speaker 7: The co line.

997
00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:56,959
Speaker 2: Touchdown, Houston, Nick Chubb and the Texans retake the lead

998
00:44:57,040 --> 00:45:01,680
Speaker 2: on Indeed, very nice drive, very nice finished, Nick Chubb.

999
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:06,279
Speaker 2: Good complimentary running back stuff with Woody Marx and Nick Chubb.

1000
00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:07,560
Speaker 1: Woody, don't scare me like that.

1001
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:10,279
Speaker 2: Don't scare me going into the tent running around on

1002
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 2: the sideline. But you came back. You ended the game.

1003
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:15,880
Speaker 2: We need Woody to hold up here, man, Woody, Woody,

1004
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:17,840
Speaker 2: you got five games left on the regular season.

1005
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:20,759
Speaker 1: Woody, this is big. You are a big factor here.

1006
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:23,840
Speaker 2: Pierce is now on the Kansas City Chiefs practice squad.

1007
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:26,319
Speaker 2: By the way, they let go of him a couple

1008
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:30,120
Speaker 2: of weeks ago. Now he's a Kansas City chief active

1009
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:31,000
Speaker 2: Sunday Johnny.

1010
00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 1: If they're smart, I.

1011
00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:36,520
Speaker 2: Mean, come on not, I don't know whatever. Okay, here

1012
00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:39,759
Speaker 2: it is the big picture. You beat the Colts, you

1013
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 2: are a game out of first of the AFC South,

1014
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:45,840
Speaker 2: but two teams tied for the lead, and one of

1015
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:49,360
Speaker 2: them you don't play again. The Jacksonville Jaguars. You split

1016
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:52,480
Speaker 2: with them, and they're two and one in the division.

1017
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:56,080
Speaker 2: That's gonna be notable down the stretch. Perhaps the Cults

1018
00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:58,200
Speaker 2: are two and one in the division, the Texans are

1019
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:00,880
Speaker 2: four and one. You only have one game left and

1020
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:04,120
Speaker 2: that is against Indy in the regular season finale. So

1021
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 2: the Colts and Jags play this weekend. Who are we

1022
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,520
Speaker 2: rooting for this weekend? Like, how do you handle this?

1023
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:10,759
Speaker 4: Well?

1024
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 2: I guess you're rooting for the Colts because you got

1025
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:14,120
Speaker 2: to get a loss on the Jags and you already

1026
00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:16,239
Speaker 2: beat the Colts and you play the Colts again, and

1027
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:19,000
Speaker 2: look the Jags down the stretch, they're gonna lose again,

1028
00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:19,640
Speaker 2: you would hope.

1029
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:20,839
Speaker 1: Here's the Colts.

1030
00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:26,000
Speaker 2: Schedule, Jags Seahawks on the road out back to back roadies,

1031
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:27,360
Speaker 2: forty nine ers at home.

1032
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:28,520
Speaker 1: No gimme at all.

1033
00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:33,799
Speaker 2: No Jags again at home, and then the Texans. Look,

1034
00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:36,160
Speaker 2: you got to keep winning the Texans. Let's be clear here.

1035
00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:37,879
Speaker 2: The Texans have to keep winning. You might be able

1036
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:40,640
Speaker 2: to squeeze in a loss down the stretch, but just

1037
00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:44,160
Speaker 2: winning baby. Yep, that's the Colt schedule. Now what about

1038
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:48,560
Speaker 2: the Jags. You ask the Colts at home this Sunday?

1039
00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:51,440
Speaker 2: All right, they always beat the Colts it oh in Jacksonville,

1040
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 2: right always, But we'll see if that holds. The Jets

1041
00:46:55,320 --> 00:47:00,840
Speaker 2: at home, keep going at Denver, at Denver, at Indy.

1042
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:06,200
Speaker 2: And then the Titans, I mean the Jags, Johnny. They

1043
00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:10,120
Speaker 2: were supposed to die after they lost here, the way

1044
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:13,680
Speaker 2: they lost, it was over, but they bounced back with a.

1045
00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:16,520
Speaker 1: Monster window of the Chargers who might be dying themselves. Yeah,

1046
00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:18,360
Speaker 1: justin Herbert's got a fractured left hand.

1047
00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:20,600
Speaker 3: He's apparently going for surgery and they'll have to figure

1048
00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:22,120
Speaker 3: out how much time he's gonna miss. Now it's his

1049
00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:26,520
Speaker 3: left hand, not his right hand. But if you as

1050
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:28,359
Speaker 3: we've and we'll play the Chargers two days after.

1051
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:31,040
Speaker 1: About Aaron Rodgers with his left hand, that's exactly right.

1052
00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:33,399
Speaker 3: He missed the week, yeah, and he did not look

1053
00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:35,799
Speaker 3: good no, look good, plus forty one years old.

1054
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:37,880
Speaker 1: They beat the crap out of him, So we'll see it.

1055
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:39,799
Speaker 1: So there's that. We'll see how that plays out for

1056
00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:40,480
Speaker 1: the Chargers.

1057
00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 3: But uh, look at this part of the year that

1058
00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:45,480
Speaker 3: Colts have a tough finish, the Jaguars probably have the

1059
00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:47,920
Speaker 3: easiest schedule from this point forward.

1060
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,719
Speaker 1: Now go to Denver that that we don't have. How

1061
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:51,400
Speaker 1: would you rate.

1062
00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:54,520
Speaker 2: The Texans finish as far as the schedule goes versus

1063
00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:55,560
Speaker 2: the others.

1064
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 1: Chiefs six and six.

1065
00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:59,920
Speaker 3: Then you got the Cardinals mathematically eliminated.

1066
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:03,600
Speaker 2: You say the record, it's the freaking chief that I know,

1067
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:04,759
Speaker 2: six and six.

1068
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:08,480
Speaker 1: I know. But when you're doing like schedule, what did

1069
00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:08,839
Speaker 1: I do?

1070
00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:09,200
Speaker 4: Oh?

1071
00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:10,600
Speaker 1: This was bad? What did I do?

1072
00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:12,600
Speaker 2: I can't believe I've waited this long into the show

1073
00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:13,799
Speaker 2: to just.

1074
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:15,960
Speaker 3: No, no, I know where you're going with this. You know,

1075
00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:18,799
Speaker 3: you say you have to remind. You don't have to

1076
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:24,520
Speaker 3: say it out loud, but you do have to tell everybody, hey, remember.

1077
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:25,880
Speaker 1: To protect the ball.

1078
00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:28,839
Speaker 3: You don't have to say, hey, remember Rosing Copter, but

1079
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 3: you got to remember. I know I've said it in

1080
00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:33,880
Speaker 3: you and my Hue and don't beat a ros and

1081
00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:34,880
Speaker 3: Copter situation.

1082
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:36,040
Speaker 1: What are you doing?

1083
00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:38,960
Speaker 3: No, I'm not summoning rosen cop I'm so you have

1084
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:42,840
Speaker 3: to be aware of it, so you my greatest regret.

1085
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:45,200
Speaker 1: My greatest regret.

1086
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:48,000
Speaker 3: Is my last game against the biggest rival we had.

1087
00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:50,719
Speaker 3: We'd never beaten him in school history. We've got the lead,

1088
00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:53,680
Speaker 3: it's third and three, and I touch base with everybody

1089
00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 3: in the offense in the line of what they're supposed

1090
00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:56,360
Speaker 3: to do during the time out. All we gotta do

1091
00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:58,040
Speaker 3: is get the time out or get the first down

1092
00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:01,279
Speaker 3: and I can run the clock out. I forgot to

1093
00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:03,720
Speaker 3: remind my running back to protect the damn ball.

1094
00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:07,759
Speaker 1: Well, and he's the most important one I know. And

1095
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:08,719
Speaker 1: then he fumbled.

1096
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:11,439
Speaker 3: Okay, But my telling is that a play like rosen

1097
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:13,680
Speaker 3: Copter sticks in my head more than it does the

1098
00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 3: others because I had that personal experience with it.

1099
00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 2: Listen in the call the final Woody run, that's just

1100
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:19,480
Speaker 2: for nothing.

1101
00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:21,239
Speaker 1: I heard it. But I heard you say Balt hands

1102
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 1: on the ball. Ye, yes he did. That's the point.

1103
00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:26,680
Speaker 1: The only thing that can go wrong right there is

1104
00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:28,480
Speaker 1: I was just saying it to loved ones.

1105
00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:30,600
Speaker 2: That's all I was doing, I know. But you said

1106
00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:32,719
Speaker 2: you didn't say secure the ball, you said roten.

1107
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:36,920
Speaker 3: Copter, I said, we don't need rosen Copter exactly, Yes, exactly,

1108
00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:38,000
Speaker 3: we didn't need it.

1109
00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:40,200
Speaker 1: We didn't need it, you know.

1110
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:42,440
Speaker 3: And if you don't, you got hey, look two hands

1111
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:45,160
Speaker 3: on the ball, you know that, get that wrist protected,

1112
00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:47,719
Speaker 3: you know, you gotta go. Speaking of Woody, he had

1113
00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:49,439
Speaker 3: a funny quote after the game, and I was reading.

1114
00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:51,360
Speaker 3: I always read the quotes after the game, and so

1115
00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:54,480
Speaker 3: Woodies was in the transcripts and he was asked when

1116
00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:56,719
Speaker 3: the fun when the injury first occurred, did you think

1117
00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 3: that you were going to be out of the game.

1118
00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:00,560
Speaker 1: Here's his answer and I quote for the game.

1119
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:03,040
Speaker 3: Oh no, I ain't never out for the game, no

1120
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:05,560
Speaker 3: matter what, no matter what the situation is, I ain't

1121
00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:06,000
Speaker 3: never out.

1122
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:07,279
Speaker 1: Wow.

1123
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:10,760
Speaker 3: I loved the good but he also loves that man.

1124
00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:13,720
Speaker 1: What did he say about what if I break out? Okay?

1125
00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:15,920
Speaker 3: So his first question was what does it mean you

1126
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:17,160
Speaker 3: to be able to come back in the game and

1127
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:18,960
Speaker 3: have the coach trust you like that to put the

1128
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:20,200
Speaker 3: ball in your hands. At the end of the game,

1129
00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:23,120
Speaker 3: he said, everybody was just talking to me making sure

1130
00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:25,240
Speaker 3: I knew what the down was. I had to actually

1131
00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:27,400
Speaker 3: pull CJ to the side and ask him, Hey, if

1132
00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:29,680
Speaker 3: I break out, should I score or not? He kind

1133
00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:32,520
Speaker 3: of gave me tips on what to do, and Jake

1134
00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:35,560
Speaker 3: Andrews kind of gave me tips on we just needed

1135
00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:38,000
Speaker 3: five six yards to stay up and then get down.

1136
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:40,839
Speaker 3: Just protect the ball. Somebody's coming and then the game

1137
00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:43,040
Speaker 3: was over. Just them trusting me to go back out

1138
00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:44,880
Speaker 3: there with the injury. That's just who I am. Hats

1139
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:46,319
Speaker 3: off to them trust me.

1140
00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:50,759
Speaker 1: To go out score. I guarantee you it was not.

1141
00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:55,760
Speaker 1: It was not this look just get the first down. Yeah,

1142
00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:58,560
Speaker 1: because CJ was asked about it too, and CJ was like, no, man,

1143
00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:02,160
Speaker 1: I can't tell you what I told him. I can't

1144
00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:04,880
Speaker 1: tell you what I can use the words yeah, yeah.

1145
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:07,400
Speaker 2: Okay, andre Ware coming up next here it's Texans Monday

1146
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:08,800
Speaker 2: presented by Houston Methodist.

1147

Speaker 7: Now more Texans Monday presented by Houston Methodist.

1148

Speaker 2: marks to his left plus formation left.

1150
00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:21,520
Speaker 1: CJ takes the snap and they hand it.

1151
00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:24,080
Speaker 2: To Nico on the end around running left, Nico to

1152
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:24,800
Speaker 2: the goal line.

1153
00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 1: He's got it.

1154
00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:30,520
Speaker 2: Nico takes it in for six from the seven.

1155
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:33,239
Speaker 1: That was beautiful.

1156
00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:37,640
Speaker 2: Nicocollins around the left side into the end zone for

1157
00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:41,360
Speaker 2: the TD two rushing touchdowns and he goes first for

1158
00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:44,239
Speaker 2: the Houston Texans in a twenty to sixteen win over

1159
00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:47,360
Speaker 2: the Colts and Man oh Man, the Texans are rolling

1160
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:51,200
Speaker 2: now seven of nine, four in a row into Kansas

1161
00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:55,879
Speaker 2: City on Sunday Night Football on Sports Radio six ten.

1162
00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:57,799
Speaker 2: I didn't say the TV network because you're gonna hear

1163
00:51:57,800 --> 00:52:00,799
Speaker 2: it right here. Andre Ware joins us now and Drey,

1164
00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:04,759
Speaker 2: let's start here. CJ Stroud the return two hundred and

1165
00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:08,000
Speaker 2: seventy six yards. Your thoughts on his performance, the whole performance,

1166
00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:08,799
Speaker 2: Good morning.

1167
00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:12,759
Speaker 4: Good morning guys. Yeah, I thought it was a consistent

1168
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:17,680
Speaker 4: performance kind of across the board for CJ. Having come

1169
00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:20,960
Speaker 4: back from a concussion. I expected him actually to play

1170
00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:24,479
Speaker 4: maybe not as good as he played in this one

1171
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:27,759
Speaker 4: because it's the Colts, because it's on the road, and

1172
00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:30,520
Speaker 4: because he was coming back from the concussion. But he

1173
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 4: was steady, held a ship and converted when needed, and

1174
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:37,239
Speaker 4: I thought I thought he had a nice return to

1175
00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:37,800
Speaker 4: the lineup.

1176
00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:40,880
Speaker 1: Drey, kind of a two parter.

1177
00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:44,239
Speaker 3: Hey, what did you think when the Colts used to

1178
00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:47,000
Speaker 3: come here with t Y Hilton? And do you think

1179
00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:50,680
Speaker 3: Colts fans and followers feel that way now that Nico

1180
00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:53,279
Speaker 3: Collins has made Lucas Oil his second home.

1181
00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:58,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that used to scare me a big

1182
00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:01,560
Speaker 4: time t Y Hilton for a guy with his statue,

1183
00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:04,520
Speaker 4: a football player of his statue carried a big punch

1184
00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:06,960
Speaker 4: man and he used to he used to own the

1185
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:10,800
Speaker 4: Texans back in the day anywhere, whether it was here,

1186
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:15,800
Speaker 4: n Indy and anywhere else. But yeah, Nico Collins has

1187
00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:19,560
Speaker 4: certainly stepped up. He's flashing now, he's playing well at

1188
00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:22,880
Speaker 4: the right time. I thought Jayden Higgins really stepped up

1189
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:28,879
Speaker 4: yesterday and my reliant energy power player of the game beforehand,

1190
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:32,800
Speaker 4: Dalton Schultze added seven catches yep for fifty five yards.

1191
00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:35,200
Speaker 4: So you know, we knew the ball needed to be

1192
00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:40,040
Speaker 4: spread around. It couldn't just be entirely Nico, because that's

1193
00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:43,480
Speaker 4: how Davis Mills was winning games. He kept defenses off balance.

1194
00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:45,560
Speaker 4: You were going to have to do that to the Colts,

1195
00:53:45,560 --> 00:53:49,120
Speaker 4: and CJ did exactly that with Nico leading the way.

1196
00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:52,520
Speaker 2: You had to work in that he was your power player.

1197
00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:53,920
Speaker 2: Of course, that you got that.

1198
00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:56,399
Speaker 1: You gotta tell the truth. Yeah, he's got to work

1199
00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:57,920
Speaker 1: that in. Tell the truth. Monday.

1200
00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:00,439
Speaker 2: It is tell the truth Monday. I mean, Schultz actually

1201
00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:04,000
Speaker 2: the leading receiver on this football team in catches, all right,

1202
00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:07,719
Speaker 2: fifty nine. Nico is fifty seven. Now, Nico climbing the

1203
00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:10,879
Speaker 2: charts in yards in the league with seven ninety five,

1204
00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:13,480
Speaker 2: so well on his way to another thousand yard season.

1205
00:54:13,560 --> 00:54:14,400
Speaker 1: Nico collins.

1206
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:16,920
Speaker 2: But Drew, I'm glad you worked in Higgins here because

1207
00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:20,280
Speaker 2: that rookie has put out a bit of a show lately.

1208
00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:22,439
Speaker 1: I mean it's not so subtle either.

1209
00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:25,600
Speaker 2: I mean it's four catches here, four catches there, and

1210
00:54:25,760 --> 00:54:28,640
Speaker 2: right now he's the third leading receiver on this football team,

1211
00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:30,719
Speaker 2: so that's good to see. But another rookie, Woody Marks,

1212
00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:32,640
Speaker 2: what do you make of him? As he was able

1213
00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:35,240
Speaker 2: to help the team run out the clock, had numerous

1214
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:38,960
Speaker 2: good runs. It wasn't an explosive performance all the way around,

1215
00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:41,520
Speaker 2: but you're getting a pop from him now. And even

1216
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:43,839
Speaker 2: though Nick Chubb is listed as the starter, I think

1217
00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:45,960
Speaker 2: we all agree Woody is the starter right now. And

1218
00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:48,239
Speaker 2: Nick Chubb's more of a complimentary guy, but Chubb is

1219
00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:50,520
Speaker 2: to be heard from. Had that touchdown run. Would you

1220
00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:52,680
Speaker 2: make of the ground attack, especially Woody the rookie?

1221
00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:56,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's which occurred a couple of weeks

1222
00:54:56,520 --> 00:55:00,480
Speaker 4: ago when they had a game at home, maybe Denver

1223
00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:03,919
Speaker 4: game maybe, or the game following the Denver game, Wood

1224
00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:06,399
Speaker 4: he started to get the majority of the work. Wood

1225
00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:09,040
Speaker 4: he took feel first, though Tubb would start the second

1226
00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:12,640
Speaker 4: half in those consecutive games. But I like what he's doing.

1227
00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:16,360
Speaker 4: I like what that he played hurt yesterday because that

1228
00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:19,920
Speaker 4: tells me that the culture is right in the building

1229
00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:22,400
Speaker 4: when a guy is going out and he's willing to

1230
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:24,239
Speaker 4: put his body on the line and he's not one

1231
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:26,640
Speaker 4: hundred percent. He was a long way from one hundred percent.

1232
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:30,040
Speaker 4: Nobody is at this stage, but at that position, you

1233
00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:32,640
Speaker 4: have to be able to function and do certain things.

1234
00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:35,840
Speaker 4: He's throwing his body in there in pass protection. He's

1235
00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:38,520
Speaker 4: you know, breaking off runs on third downs when they

1236
00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:42,120
Speaker 4: needed it the most, and he's just steady. You know.

1237
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:45,160
Speaker 4: He has become one of those backs that you kind

1238
00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:46,680
Speaker 4: of hold your breath when he hits the line of

1239
00:55:46,680 --> 00:55:49,719
Speaker 4: scrimmage and gets to the second level because he can

1240
00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:51,920
Speaker 4: hit the home run. So it's been fun to watch

1241
00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:54,920
Speaker 4: the running game as a whole kind of come together

1242
00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:57,560
Speaker 4: with Wood he leading the way and Nick Now kind

1243
00:55:57,560 --> 00:55:59,600
Speaker 4: of in a supporting role. I thought they worked the

1244
00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:05,000
Speaker 4: edge of Indies defense. Well, it's obviously something they caught

1245
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:07,880
Speaker 4: on film where they were stronger in the middle, but

1246
00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:11,719
Speaker 4: they were weaker work in the edges because both touchdowns

1247
00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:15,680
Speaker 4: came on on the left side of the formation outside

1248
00:56:15,719 --> 00:56:18,319
Speaker 4: the tackle box. So that was fun to see as well.

1249
00:56:19,320 --> 00:56:20,879
Speaker 1: Drake building upon that.

1250
00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:22,920
Speaker 3: This is the second week now that we've seen this

1251
00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:28,360
Speaker 3: offensive line is constructed Ursery, Titus, Andrews, ed and Trent.

1252
00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:30,919
Speaker 3: It took a little while to kind of get it going,

1253
00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:34,200
Speaker 3: and then obviously the viral block of Ed on Jermaine Pratt.

1254
00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:36,719
Speaker 1: Now he did with on one of the sacks, so

1255
00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:37,360
Speaker 1: it happens.

1256
00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:41,120
Speaker 3: But this five that they have starting on the offensive line,

1257
00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:44,520
Speaker 3: it feels like it's the right five. What are your

1258
00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:46,600
Speaker 3: thoughts about what they've done the last couple of games

1259
00:56:46,600 --> 00:56:47,160
Speaker 3: only giving.

1260
00:56:47,040 --> 00:56:47,720
Speaker 1: Up two sacks.

1261
00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:50,160
Speaker 3: I think it's one hundred yard performance in both games

1262
00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:52,600
Speaker 3: from a rushing standpoint. What are your thoughts about this

1263
00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:55,239
Speaker 3: five and how it's done and is it, in your

1264
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:56,320
Speaker 3: mind the right five?

1265
00:56:57,520 --> 00:56:59,840
Speaker 4: I think so. I like it. I like the production

1266
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:03,200
Speaker 4: of like the five guys where they are. I've always

1267
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:05,799
Speaker 4: thought Titus was a guard. Uh. You can argue with

1268
00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:08,279
Speaker 4: me all day and tell me about this stat and

1269
00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:11,160
Speaker 4: at and who said what He's a guard and that's

1270
00:57:11,239 --> 00:57:14,520
Speaker 4: where he's He's having the most success at left guard

1271
00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:17,720
Speaker 4: right now. And that's by no accident. Ed Ingram threw

1272
00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:20,880
Speaker 4: one of the best blocks I think of the season yesterday.

1273
00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:24,640
Speaker 4: Uh in that game against Pratt and Pratt leeds the

1274
00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:27,720
Speaker 4: coltson UH and UH in tackles and one of the

1275
00:57:27,800 --> 00:57:30,600
Speaker 4: leaders in the league in tackles, and he just just

1276
00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:35,880
Speaker 4: ragged all him yesterday. Trent Brown has played outstanding at tackle.

1277
00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:39,520
Speaker 4: There's still obviously tread on those on those tires, and

1278
00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:42,880
Speaker 4: and Andrews as well as ursery I have come around.

1279
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:46,760
Speaker 4: So Uh, it's the best five where they are in

1280
00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:49,680
Speaker 4: the positions that they are in, and they're getting they're

1281
00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:52,960
Speaker 4: getting production in in the passing game as well as

1282
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:56,160
Speaker 4: being able to run the football when they obviously need it. Now.

1283
00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:58,640
Speaker 4: There's still some work in the short short yardage where

1284
00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:02,200
Speaker 4: you need some push up front to convert, but that's

1285
00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:04,120
Speaker 4: obviously still a work in progress.

1286
00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 2: All Right, this is for both of you, and I

1287
00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:09,720
Speaker 2: want you to think carefully, and I know it didn't

1288
00:58:09,760 --> 00:58:11,840
Speaker 2: work in third and fourth and short. But what do

1289
00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:14,840
Speaker 2: we think of the tush push, and not only the

1290
00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:19,080
Speaker 2: tush push, but just the desire to do something different

1291
00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:22,360
Speaker 2: and creative. If you will, Dre you go first, what

1292
00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:22,840
Speaker 2: do you think?

1293
00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:25,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think the way you described it, just the

1294
00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:28,680
Speaker 4: creativity of it, the you know, the ability to give

1295
00:58:28,760 --> 00:58:31,200
Speaker 4: other teams something to have to work on and spend

1296
00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:35,400
Speaker 4: time on and not work on another area defensively is

1297
00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:40,320
Speaker 4: brilliant in itself. And it's the first time in the

1298
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:42,680
Speaker 4: game it worked. I think maybe one converted one out

1299
00:58:42,680 --> 00:58:47,120
Speaker 4: of three times that they used it. And so going forward,

1300
00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:50,040
Speaker 4: that's an option in the short yardage. I don't know

1301
00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:54,160
Speaker 4: that I like tight end taking that snap. I might

1302
00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:57,960
Speaker 4: bring in Davis Mills to do something like that and

1303
00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:00,320
Speaker 4: more a guy that's a little more athletic kind of

1304
00:59:00,400 --> 00:59:04,080
Speaker 4: understands ball handling. But it is what it is, and

1305
00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:06,320
Speaker 4: and you kind of ride with it from there. But

1306
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:11,800
Speaker 4: that's the ability to adapt and present something different is

1307
00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:14,280
Speaker 4: in and of itself innovative.

1308
00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:17,400
Speaker 3: And to that point, if you are going to run

1309
00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:21,280
Speaker 3: the toush push, right, what's your counter to it? Because

1310
00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:23,000
Speaker 3: you got now that now the teams have seen it,

1311
00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:25,240
Speaker 3: like well, all right, when Stower gets under we know

1312
00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:27,640
Speaker 3: what they're doing, and that obviously is the adjustment to

1313
00:59:27,640 --> 00:59:29,760
Speaker 3: the cults. Weal they know at that point that's what

1314
00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:32,760
Speaker 3: they're gonna do, So what's your counter. The Ravens did

1315
00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:35,360
Speaker 3: a great job. I think it was two weeks ago.

1316
00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:38,480
Speaker 3: I can't remember who they were playing, and Mark Andrews

1317
00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:42,040
Speaker 3: instead Toush pushing, they ran they He took the ball

1318
00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:44,400
Speaker 3: and he was under center. He took the ball and

1319
00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:46,959
Speaker 3: ran a sweep. So those guys pulled in front of him.

1320
00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:50,000
Speaker 3: Everybody's diving in. They gets Toush push and then he

1321
00:59:50,080 --> 00:59:52,120
Speaker 3: swept it around the end. He ran thirty five yards

1322
00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:52,840
Speaker 3: a trash point.

1323
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:55,480
Speaker 2: Maybe that's not a silver thing, but maybe Mills or

1324
00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:56,439
Speaker 2: somebody else who does.

1325
00:59:56,520 --> 00:59:59,120
Speaker 1: Oh And to that end, I made sure we talked

1326
00:59:59,120 --> 01:00:00,720
Speaker 1: about this during the break. I asked Kate.

1327
01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:03,200
Speaker 3: I said, I'm pretty sure you told me you played

1328
01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:05,680
Speaker 3: all positions in high school, including quarterback, and he's like, yeah,

1329
01:00:05,680 --> 01:00:06,520
Speaker 3: I play quarterback in ices.

1330
01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:09,320
Speaker 1: Okay, there it is, so I thought he had said that, but.

1331
01:00:09,280 --> 01:00:12,440
Speaker 3: Still taking a I mean, Tyler Warren took snaps at

1332
01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:15,400
Speaker 3: Penn State in that position and he botched the snap,

1333
01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:16,600
Speaker 3: which which was a.

1334
01:00:16,600 --> 01:00:18,960
Speaker 2: Big play Cleveland botched the snap with a tight end

1335
01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:21,680
Speaker 2: taking a touch push yesterday as well, that's four yardage.

1336
01:00:21,760 --> 01:00:25,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, Dre. Earlier, we're talking to nd and asked

1337
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:27,600
Speaker 3: him his question. I'll ask you as well. We all

1338
01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:28,840
Speaker 3: knew about CJ coming back.

1339
01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:29,400
Speaker 1: A lot was made.

1340
01:00:29,440 --> 01:00:32,320
Speaker 3: He's a quarterback coming back. But Jalen Petrie also came back.

1341
01:00:32,360 --> 01:00:34,760
Speaker 3: And by the way, I think he's the first Texan

1342
01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:37,040
Speaker 3: to wear a Guardian cap in a regular season game.

1343
01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:39,320
Speaker 1: So good for him. And he played well.

1344
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:41,560
Speaker 3: He had two passes defense, he had three tackles, he

1345
01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:43,800
Speaker 3: was blitzing, he was in a lot of he was

1346
01:00:43,880 --> 01:00:47,760
Speaker 3: Jalen Petrie basically, and I feel like the defense can

1347
01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:50,920
Speaker 3: do some different things, especially when he's on the field.

1348
01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:54,360
Speaker 3: What is the impact of having him back, Dre, in

1349
01:00:54,400 --> 01:00:56,000
Speaker 3: your opinion, I.

1350
01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:58,800
Speaker 4: Think it just gives you more versatility on the back end.

1351
01:00:58,840 --> 01:01:01,120
Speaker 4: And he does so many things in terms of the

1352
01:01:01,200 --> 01:01:05,360
Speaker 4: run run game, stopping to run, as well as where

1353
01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:09,200
Speaker 4: they bring him on blitzes. He knows how to time blitzes.

1354
01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:12,440
Speaker 4: That's a skill that you actually have to learn the

1355
01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:15,160
Speaker 4: cadence of a quarterback, how to time it up, what

1356
01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:18,400
Speaker 4: depth to come from, and you just can't plug and

1357
01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:21,240
Speaker 4: get the same production from one player to the next.

1358
01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:24,919
Speaker 4: It's a skill set and Petrie possesses it. We saw

1359
01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:29,919
Speaker 4: yesterday in coverage. I wouldn't make a living with him

1360
01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:33,520
Speaker 4: covering Josh downs, but for a down or two he

1361
01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:35,680
Speaker 4: had to do that and found himself in that position.

1362
01:01:35,840 --> 01:01:38,600
Speaker 4: Was able to get a knockdown certainly on one of

1363
01:01:38,640 --> 01:01:41,400
Speaker 4: them on a third down at that to get the

1364
01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:44,000
Speaker 4: defense off the field. So he just gives you a

1365
01:01:44,040 --> 01:01:49,520
Speaker 4: tremendous amount of versatility on the back end when there

1366
01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:52,040
Speaker 4: are times I didn't know that he would even fit

1367
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:56,880
Speaker 4: into this defense, but he has shown you he's missed

1368
01:01:57,040 --> 01:01:58,200
Speaker 4: when he's not in the lineup.

1369
01:01:58,960 --> 01:02:02,040
Speaker 2: Dray Jones made some nice throws, did not turn it over,

1370
01:02:02,440 --> 01:02:04,960
Speaker 2: but clearly he does not look like the way he

1371
01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:08,120
Speaker 2: looked earlier this season, so that injury, whatever it is,

1372
01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:11,040
Speaker 2: he's not the same quarterback he was in the first

1373
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:14,960
Speaker 2: eight nine games of the year. Jonathan Taylor is Jonathan Taylor,

1374
01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:16,840
Speaker 2: but the Texans did a pretty good job keeping him

1375
01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:20,320
Speaker 2: in check yesterday. Your thoughts on Indias They are tied

1376
01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:23,360
Speaker 2: for first with the Jacksonville Jaguars coming down the stretch here,

1377
01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:26,680
Speaker 2: the Texans the heat is on a game back with

1378
01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:29,720
Speaker 2: another game against the Colts coming up in the regular

1379
01:02:29,760 --> 01:02:32,720
Speaker 2: season finale, Thoughts, let me ask.

1380
01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:36,520
Speaker 4: You this, if I've told you before that game CJ's returning,

1381
01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:40,120
Speaker 4: he's gonna go fourteen of twenty seven for two hundred

1382
01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:44,120
Speaker 4: yards and two touchdown passes, would you take that performance?

1383
01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:46,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, I know where you're going with this.

1384
01:02:46,560 --> 01:02:47,959
Speaker 1: That's Jones stat line.

1385
01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:50,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's Jones and a quarterback rating of one oh

1386
01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:55,120
Speaker 4: one right to CJ. Seventy five point four, no touchdowns,

1387
01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:58,840
Speaker 4: one interception. So I don't think Daniel Jones is playing

1388
01:02:58,880 --> 01:03:03,720
Speaker 4: that bad, is my point. I just don't think Indy's

1389
01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:07,800
Speaker 4: defense is worth a down and they can't stop the run,

1390
01:03:07,560 --> 01:03:11,880
Speaker 4: and it's not Daniel Jones is playing defense. Daniel Jones

1391
01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:14,240
Speaker 4: did what Daniel Jones has always done and actually may

1392
01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:17,760
Speaker 4: have played a little above it from a percentage standpoint.

1393
01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:21,480
Speaker 4: Obviously he can play better there completing more passes in

1394
01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:24,560
Speaker 4: certain situations. But I'm taking the two touchdowns and the

1395
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:27,600
Speaker 4: two hundred yards going in to that game if you're

1396
01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:30,840
Speaker 4: giving CJ that. Now, obviously he threw for more yards,

1397
01:03:30,840 --> 01:03:35,720
Speaker 4: but not the type of production in the touchdown the column.

1398
01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:38,680
Speaker 4: But I don't think Daniel Jones is the problem here.

1399
01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:41,800
Speaker 4: He's not as mobile as he once was. Maybe who

1400
01:03:41,880 --> 01:03:44,040
Speaker 4: is at this point in the season, But I don't

1401
01:03:44,080 --> 01:03:47,400
Speaker 4: think he's the Indy's problem. Indy's problem is that now

1402
01:03:47,800 --> 01:03:51,360
Speaker 4: people are loading the box to stop Jonathan Taylor. They've

1403
01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:53,280
Speaker 4: got to get a little more created there, and then

1404
01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:55,560
Speaker 4: on the defensive side, they got to get stopped. The

1405
01:03:55,640 --> 01:03:59,160
Speaker 4: Texans win six or thirteen on third downs, they only

1406
01:03:59,200 --> 01:04:02,520
Speaker 4: converted three of ten. That's a stat that's you know,

1407
01:04:03,120 --> 01:04:04,960
Speaker 4: he has maybe a little bit to do with that,

1408
01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:09,080
Speaker 4: but not a whole lot, and so I'll take his performance.

1409
01:04:09,400 --> 01:04:12,040
Speaker 4: I think, you know, a lot of people point the

1410
01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:14,720
Speaker 4: finger at the quarterback when it's not going right, and

1411
01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:17,920
Speaker 4: Indy's obviously on a slide, so he's an easy target.

1412
01:04:17,960 --> 01:04:20,360
Speaker 4: But they need to take a really hard look at

1413
01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:23,720
Speaker 4: what Indy's doing defensively as well, because they're a big

1414
01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:26,520
Speaker 4: part of why they've had this slide lately.

1415
01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:30,120
Speaker 2: Take the Texans out of it. Colts Jags. They play

1416
01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:31,960
Speaker 2: each other twice starting this weekend.

1417
01:04:32,440 --> 01:04:36,160
Speaker 1: I know who's better. Who's better? Jags are Colts right now?

1418
01:04:37,400 --> 01:04:39,360
Speaker 4: I said last week. I think last week or the

1419
01:04:39,400 --> 01:04:41,600
Speaker 4: week before I'm more afraid of Jacksonville than I am

1420
01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:45,480
Speaker 4: Indianapolis because of their ability on defense. They've got playmakers

1421
01:04:45,520 --> 01:04:47,600
Speaker 4: on that side of the ball. They've got guys that

1422
01:04:47,680 --> 01:04:50,320
Speaker 4: can get after the quarterback out on the edges. They've

1423
01:04:50,320 --> 01:04:54,480
Speaker 4: got secondary players that are better than Indies. Indies problems

1424
01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:57,480
Speaker 4: they can't as well. Now that you can't stop the run,

1425
01:04:57,560 --> 01:05:00,640
Speaker 4: the weakness of the defense all season long has been

1426
01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:03,600
Speaker 4: the secondary because there's no chemistry back there. So I

1427
01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:06,160
Speaker 4: fear Jacksonville a little bit more. I think they're playing

1428
01:05:06,200 --> 01:05:08,800
Speaker 4: with a little more swagger right now, and they're only

1429
01:05:08,840 --> 01:05:13,080
Speaker 4: a game back of Indy. Buckle up, because here we go.

1430
01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:16,080
Speaker 4: It's gonna be a fun ride to the finish line.

1431
01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:18,160
Speaker 3: I think one of the things that the Colts have

1432
01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:21,600
Speaker 3: lost with with Jones, with this fibula, as it was

1433
01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:22,200
Speaker 3: called by.

1434
01:05:22,040 --> 01:05:26,640
Speaker 1: Shane Steiken, is that Daniel he can't move in the pocket.

1435
01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:27,560
Speaker 1: Like what we saw.

1436
01:05:27,600 --> 01:05:30,120
Speaker 3: His answer in the pocket to getting away from the

1437
01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:32,680
Speaker 3: rush was throwing off his back foot. Now, the one time,

1438
01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:34,960
Speaker 3: one time he did that to Pierce, he dropped a

1439
01:05:35,040 --> 01:05:37,280
Speaker 3: dime in the back corner of the end zone.

1440
01:05:37,360 --> 01:05:41,040
Speaker 1: I mean he dotted him. It was unbelievable. But they

1441
01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:42,480
Speaker 1: got nothing out of Michael Pittman.

1442
01:05:42,920 --> 01:05:45,080
Speaker 3: Now, Warren was sick throughout the week, and they did

1443
01:05:45,200 --> 01:05:47,040
Speaker 3: get the touchdown pass to him, but other than that,

1444
01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:49,120
Speaker 3: they didn't get a whole lot from Tyler Warren either.

1445
01:05:49,640 --> 01:05:53,440
Speaker 3: But Jones, he you could tell that he was not

1446
01:05:53,480 --> 01:05:54,560
Speaker 3: getting out of the pocket.

1447
01:05:54,600 --> 01:05:56,240
Speaker 1: He wasn't gonna duck up and under.

1448
01:05:56,520 --> 01:05:58,360
Speaker 3: You know, if if you rushed him high side, he

1449
01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:00,520
Speaker 3: went up and under and rolled to the right. And

1450
01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:03,160
Speaker 3: now once you get scrambled drow going, all bets are off.

1451
01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:06,520
Speaker 3: Now he's got anybody. But you know he made it.

1452
01:06:06,600 --> 01:06:08,440
Speaker 3: The couple of the one throw he mote made the

1453
01:06:08,480 --> 01:06:14,000
Speaker 3: downs on our sideline in the third quarterbow Tapper, Oh

1454
01:06:14,080 --> 01:06:16,440
Speaker 3: my god, that's as good. Those two throws are as

1455
01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:18,440
Speaker 3: good as anything I've seen all year, and think of

1456
01:06:18,440 --> 01:06:20,520
Speaker 3: the quarterbacks we've seen. I mean, it's it was. It

1457
01:06:20,560 --> 01:06:23,520
Speaker 3: was unbelievable. But I think that's that's what they're lacking.

1458
01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:27,840
Speaker 3: But Drey's right, this isn't on I don't think the offense.

1459
01:06:27,880 --> 01:06:30,080
Speaker 3: I know the offense scored sixteen. They could have they

1460
01:06:30,080 --> 01:06:31,640
Speaker 3: could have done a little bit better with that, there's

1461
01:06:31,640 --> 01:06:33,840
Speaker 3: no doubt. But that defense was on the field way

1462
01:06:33,840 --> 01:06:35,800
Speaker 3: too long. They couldn't get off the field on third downs.

1463
01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:39,600
Speaker 3: They struggled covering Nico Collins again, then they gave him

1464
01:06:39,600 --> 01:06:40,760
Speaker 3: the two touchdowns in the red zone.

1465
01:06:40,800 --> 01:06:43,040
Speaker 1: We're one of the worst red zone offenses in the NFL.

1466
01:06:43,080 --> 01:06:45,920
Speaker 2: And the Nico Sauce matchup doesn't materialize again because this

1467
01:06:46,280 --> 01:06:49,240
Speaker 2: Sauce gets hurtin Yeah, so we don't get to see

1468
01:06:49,240 --> 01:06:51,640
Speaker 2: that because Nico got hurt early two years ago and

1469
01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:53,280
Speaker 2: we won't see it for a while.

1470
01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:53,800
Speaker 1: That's right.

1471
01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:56,000
Speaker 4: And just take a peak. Take a peak at time

1472
01:06:56,040 --> 01:06:59,920
Speaker 4: of possession thirty four fifty thirty five minutes to basic

1473
01:07:00,280 --> 01:07:04,360
Speaker 4: twenty five. Yep, that shows you that it's not the

1474
01:07:04,440 --> 01:07:08,200
Speaker 4: offensive indie. Uh. They can't get off the field defensively.

1475
01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:10,959
Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, drem to ask you a question.

1476
01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:14,240
Speaker 3: I actually just saw pop up on the screen, and

1477
01:07:14,640 --> 01:07:16,720
Speaker 3: I know you know this team better than a lot

1478
01:07:16,760 --> 01:07:19,120
Speaker 3: of people, but it's a I think one of the

1479
01:07:19,120 --> 01:07:21,560
Speaker 3: more intriguing questions that we're gonna have over the last five.

1480
01:07:21,440 --> 01:07:24,400
Speaker 1: Weeks and not to the offseason. Is this the final

1481
01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:26,240
Speaker 1: season in Pittsburgh for Mike Tomlin.

1482
01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:30,800
Speaker 4: I think it should be. I just think you know,

1483
01:07:30,920 --> 01:07:36,040
Speaker 4: guys have stopped responding to the bravado that is Mike Tomlin.

1484
01:07:36,240 --> 01:07:38,520
Speaker 4: And you know that lasts for a while, but then

1485
01:07:38,920 --> 01:07:42,240
Speaker 4: you know, eventually, if the results aren't there, or you're

1486
01:07:42,280 --> 01:07:45,360
Speaker 4: not making decisions that the locker room feels like in

1487
01:07:45,400 --> 01:07:48,160
Speaker 4: the best interest of the locker room, then it starts

1488
01:07:48,160 --> 01:07:50,080
Speaker 4: going in one ear and out the other. And I'll

1489
01:07:50,080 --> 01:07:52,680
Speaker 4: give you an example that I gave you, guys with

1490
01:07:52,880 --> 01:07:56,040
Speaker 4: a text question that I gave you on George Pickens.

1491
01:07:56,320 --> 01:07:59,400
Speaker 4: As desperate as Pittsburgh needs receivers, you lot a talent

1492
01:07:59,840 --> 01:08:03,200
Speaker 4: like that, get out the door and you've got this

1493
01:08:03,200 --> 01:08:06,680
Speaker 4: this special motivator that should be able to reach every

1494
01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:09,080
Speaker 4: player and get the best out of him. But you

1495
01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:11,600
Speaker 4: couldn't get it from Pickings. But he goes to Dallas

1496
01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:14,720
Speaker 4: and he's the model citizen. He's basically become the number

1497
01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:18,320
Speaker 4: one receiver there and at a position that you needed.

1498
01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:20,519
Speaker 4: But you had to trade him away because you couldn't

1499
01:08:20,520 --> 01:08:24,559
Speaker 4: control You could no longer control him. That that tells

1500
01:08:24,600 --> 01:08:27,280
Speaker 4: me that you've your hands are slipping a little bit

1501
01:08:27,320 --> 01:08:29,600
Speaker 4: off the steering wheel. And you know, you guys know,

1502
01:08:29,640 --> 01:08:32,240
Speaker 4: and I've followed the Steelers since I was six years old,

1503
01:08:32,600 --> 01:08:35,080
Speaker 4: so you know I'm very close to that situation and

1504
01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:38,320
Speaker 4: know the ins and out of that program. It may

1505
01:08:38,360 --> 01:08:40,720
Speaker 4: be time for a different voice in the in that

1506
01:08:40,760 --> 01:08:44,200
Speaker 4: locker room. Now mich will go on. There'll be places

1507
01:08:44,200 --> 01:08:48,320
Speaker 4: lining up to hire him, and rightfully so. But sometimes

1508
01:08:48,320 --> 01:08:50,240
Speaker 4: a change of scener is good for everybody.

1509
01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:53,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're in the Omar Khan era now, Kevin

1510
01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:57,160
Speaker 2: Colbert no longer pulling the switches with the draft and everything,

1511
01:08:57,240 --> 01:08:58,519
Speaker 2: So that's something else to consider.

1512
01:08:58,680 --> 01:08:58,920
Speaker 8: Kevin.

1513
01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:02,040
Speaker 4: I've known Kevin for Kevin was in Detroit when I

1514
01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:04,040
Speaker 4: was there. He was kind of an understudy and then

1515
01:09:04,120 --> 01:09:07,640
Speaker 4: got his chance, obviously, and grew up in the Steelers.

1516
01:09:08,120 --> 01:09:10,360
Speaker 4: He kind of cut his teeth in the Steelers organization

1517
01:09:10,439 --> 01:09:15,000
Speaker 4: along with the Lions, and he had great drafts, great

1518
01:09:15,040 --> 01:09:18,800
Speaker 4: free agent signings, put together a roster, and when he

1519
01:09:18,960 --> 01:09:23,280
Speaker 4: left that, that franchise took a dip and has been

1520
01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:26,080
Speaker 4: dipping and just kind of treading water. Do you want

1521
01:09:26,080 --> 01:09:28,720
Speaker 4: to be known for, you know, just not having a

1522
01:09:28,760 --> 01:09:30,559
Speaker 4: losing record, or do you want to be known as

1523
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:34,080
Speaker 4: contributing and having deep runs into the playoffs every year

1524
01:09:34,080 --> 01:09:38,280
Speaker 4: and winning Super Bowls? I think Tomlin won one and

1525
01:09:38,320 --> 01:09:42,680
Speaker 4: it was on the back of Cowards players. So I

1526
01:09:42,720 --> 01:09:46,000
Speaker 4: don't really attribute that one Super Bowl win to Tomlin,

1527
01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:49,679
Speaker 4: but uh, tough, you know you you? Yeah, well, hey,

1528
01:09:49,960 --> 01:09:52,719
Speaker 4: the toughest tough. When you sit in the big boy seats,

1529
01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:54,840
Speaker 4: you got to be a big boy. And I'm not

1530
01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:57,040
Speaker 4: sure that they're getting that same type of production.

1531
01:09:58,000 --> 01:10:02,559
Speaker 2: Okay, here is the situation. The Texans survived and thrived

1532
01:10:02,560 --> 01:10:04,479
Speaker 2: in the frying pan. Now they go into the fire

1533
01:10:04,680 --> 01:10:07,720
Speaker 2: Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday. And maybe the fire is the

1534
01:10:07,720 --> 01:10:11,400
Speaker 2: wrong metaphor, because here's the weather report, gentlemen, thirty one

1535
01:10:11,439 --> 01:10:14,639
Speaker 2: degrees high wins out of the northwest, ten miles per hour.

1536
01:10:14,920 --> 01:10:17,720
Speaker 2: Bring you, that's not blowing too hot yet. But the

1537
01:10:17,760 --> 01:10:19,280
Speaker 2: Chiefs have a closed press box.

1538
01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:23,040
Speaker 4: I may very well do that. And I just need

1539
01:10:23,080 --> 01:10:25,879
Speaker 4: to know if the windows open or club dray.

1540
01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:28,599
Speaker 2: It's it's permanently closed. And I hate it. And I

1541
01:10:28,600 --> 01:10:30,439
Speaker 2: know you love this, but I hate it.

1542
01:10:30,479 --> 01:10:32,559
Speaker 1: And we had that. We had that one year where

1543
01:10:32,560 --> 01:10:33,400
Speaker 1: they were at black.

1544
01:10:33,400 --> 01:10:36,240
Speaker 4: The Heater, Johnny, I'm good, You're good.

1545
01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:38,320
Speaker 2: I had that one year where they were blasting the

1546
01:10:38,360 --> 01:10:40,040
Speaker 2: heat too hot. I was like, you guys got to

1547
01:10:40,080 --> 01:10:42,439
Speaker 2: turn this down. The glass FuG up for you guys.

1548
01:10:42,520 --> 01:10:44,960
Speaker 4: I I was peeling off layers that year.

1549
01:10:45,120 --> 01:10:48,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, the glass does not fog up, or it does

1550
01:10:48,800 --> 01:10:51,200
Speaker 2: if it's cold enough, like it did for that Dolphin

1551
01:10:51,240 --> 01:10:54,360
Speaker 2: playoff game that was like sub zero. Well, we've never

1552
01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:56,879
Speaker 2: had it there. We've never had a glass fog up problem.

1553
01:10:57,240 --> 01:10:59,080
Speaker 2: For an announcer, I can tell you this. Mitch Holtis

1554
01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:01,400
Speaker 2: the voice of the Chiefs. He has some big calls,

1555
01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:04,439
Speaker 2: but you hear the sound bouncing off that class. Look,

1556
01:11:04,479 --> 01:11:07,400
Speaker 2: this is just an inside broadcasting issue, So forget about that.

1557
01:11:07,439 --> 01:11:09,360
Speaker 2: The most important thing is wins out of the northwest

1558
01:11:09,360 --> 01:11:12,120
Speaker 2: ten miles prior. That's not blowing too hard, but it's

1559
01:11:12,160 --> 01:11:12,960
Speaker 2: a bit of a factor.

1560
01:11:13,160 --> 01:11:14,439
Speaker 1: But it makes it a little more chilly.

1561
01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:17,040
Speaker 2: Okay, So the Texans are gonna be throwing all these

1562
01:11:17,080 --> 01:11:19,320
Speaker 2: questions about weather, and the Northern teams are like, this

1563
01:11:19,400 --> 01:11:20,360
Speaker 2: is Tuesday for us.

1564
01:11:20,360 --> 01:11:22,639
Speaker 1: What are you kidding? They practice in this stuff.

1565
01:11:22,880 --> 01:11:27,480
Speaker 2: So here we go Chiefs Sunday dre thoughts.

1566
01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:31,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's a tough game. Obviously. We talked

1567
01:11:31,560 --> 01:11:33,679
Speaker 4: a little bit about this in the post game last

1568
01:11:33,760 --> 01:11:38,439
Speaker 4: night or yesterday after the Indie game, that you know,

1569
01:11:38,520 --> 01:11:41,200
Speaker 4: they just got healthy at the right time for some reason.

1570
01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:46,599
Speaker 4: There's a little bit of mojo just kind of inching

1571
01:11:46,680 --> 01:11:49,479
Speaker 4: its way away from the Chiefs where they don't have

1572
01:11:49,560 --> 01:11:52,799
Speaker 4: that whenever they need to reach down and win a game.

1573
01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:56,000
Speaker 4: It's just it doesn't seem to be there in twenty

1574
01:11:56,040 --> 01:11:59,439
Speaker 4: twenty five. And for the Texans going there, it's a

1575
01:11:59,479 --> 01:12:02,160
Speaker 4: good thing. The way the Texans are playing and going there,

1576
01:12:02,479 --> 01:12:05,360
Speaker 4: it's obviously a good thing. I don't fear him as

1577
01:12:05,520 --> 01:12:09,360
Speaker 4: much as maybe I once did, but they are still

1578
01:12:10,439 --> 01:12:13,479
Speaker 4: I think a dangerous football team, a team that's capable

1579
01:12:13,520 --> 01:12:16,680
Speaker 4: of putting it all together. I don't think they're utilizing

1580
01:12:16,800 --> 01:12:20,439
Speaker 4: or getting quite the production out of Travis Kelsey that

1581
01:12:20,520 --> 01:12:23,839
Speaker 4: they once did. And that is the difference in why

1582
01:12:24,200 --> 01:12:28,120
Speaker 4: they're not, you know, running away from from from foes

1583
01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:31,960
Speaker 4: or opponents in games because they don't control the middle

1584
01:12:31,960 --> 01:12:34,920
Speaker 4: of the field. Now they've got playmakers obviously on the

1585
01:12:34,960 --> 01:12:38,479
Speaker 4: outside with four and one, those two receivers are dynamic.

1586
01:12:38,520 --> 01:12:41,080
Speaker 4: The running game is gonna be tough to stop. But

1587
01:12:41,439 --> 01:12:44,320
Speaker 4: they just don't have what they used to have in Kelsey.

1588
01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:46,680
Speaker 4: Does he have it? I think he still does, but

1589
01:12:46,720 --> 01:12:50,439
Speaker 4: it's not an area that they have tapped into this season.

1590
01:12:50,600 --> 01:12:54,479
Speaker 4: So that with the defense, the defense is solid, the

1591
01:12:54,560 --> 01:12:56,519
Speaker 4: Chiefs are still the Chiefs, and I still think you

1592
01:12:56,600 --> 01:12:59,559
Speaker 4: got to go there and you've got to beat them soundly.

1593
01:12:59,680 --> 01:13:02,280
Speaker 4: They're not going to give you a game. They're not

1594
01:13:02,320 --> 01:13:05,800
Speaker 4: going to make it easy for the Texans traveling in there.

1595
01:13:05,880 --> 01:13:09,040
Speaker 2: Next week, Dray, a week from now, we will know

1596
01:13:09,160 --> 01:13:12,160
Speaker 2: the Kinders Texas Bowl match up December twenty seventh. Looking

1597
01:13:12,200 --> 01:13:15,680
Speaker 2: forward to the game here at NRG Stadium, I'm going

1598
01:13:15,760 --> 01:13:18,360
Speaker 2: to ask you this. Should coaches be allowed to coach

1599
01:13:18,360 --> 01:13:20,720
Speaker 2: their team after they resign and work for somebody else?

1600
01:13:20,720 --> 01:13:22,599
Speaker 2: Should they be allowed to double dip? What are your

1601
01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:25,240
Speaker 2: thoughts on the whole situation. It's a big mess in

1602
01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:26,080
Speaker 2: the college game.

1603
01:13:27,840 --> 01:13:30,200
Speaker 4: I would say no, you know, you take a job,

1604
01:13:30,280 --> 01:13:33,120
Speaker 4: you go, you go ahead and you leave and go

1605
01:13:33,200 --> 01:13:35,760
Speaker 4: coach a new team. Don't. You don't need another day

1606
01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:39,960
Speaker 4: around here to persuade players or you know, closed door

1607
01:13:40,000 --> 01:13:42,519
Speaker 4: conversations about hey, you want to go with me and

1608
01:13:42,640 --> 01:13:45,719
Speaker 4: take players and staff members and things of that sort.

1609
01:13:45,720 --> 01:13:47,320
Speaker 4: If you do, I'm not going to make it easy

1610
01:13:47,400 --> 01:13:50,599
Speaker 4: on you in order to do so, and that very

1611
01:13:50,600 --> 01:13:53,080
Speaker 4: well may happen a lot of Ole Miss players leaving

1612
01:13:53,080 --> 01:13:57,960
Speaker 4: to go to LSU and coaches as well. But no,

1613
01:13:58,520 --> 01:14:02,240
Speaker 4: I think once you decide, and you make that determination,

1614
01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:05,559
Speaker 4: you could tell LSU you think they'd have waited on Lane, Hey,

1615
01:14:05,560 --> 01:14:08,160
Speaker 4: I'm gonna coach my team, and this, that and the other,

1616
01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:10,760
Speaker 4: and and Old Miss would have waited as well. I

1617
01:14:10,800 --> 01:14:14,040
Speaker 4: think for this to kind of play itself out now,

1618
01:14:14,080 --> 01:14:17,840
Speaker 4: you lose maybe some traction and recruiting if you do that,

1619
01:14:18,120 --> 01:14:21,360
Speaker 4: and it shows just how much you actually want to

1620
01:14:21,439 --> 01:14:24,000
Speaker 4: do it if you're full time at Old Miss before

1621
01:14:24,040 --> 01:14:27,680
Speaker 4: making a commitment and making it publicly. But once you

1622
01:14:27,760 --> 01:14:30,439
Speaker 4: make the decision, it's time to go ahead and pack

1623
01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:32,120
Speaker 4: up and and uh and head that way.

1624
01:14:33,160 --> 01:14:35,880
Speaker 1: This is the way that I sort of looked at

1625
01:14:35,880 --> 01:14:40,759
Speaker 1: it if I could. It's LSU and ol Miss. Those teams,

1626
01:14:40,960 --> 01:14:42,040
Speaker 1: they don't like each other.

1627
01:14:42,160 --> 01:14:43,320
Speaker 4: They are arriving exactly.

1628
01:14:43,400 --> 01:14:47,439
Speaker 3: They play every flipping year. It's like Dre walked into

1629
01:14:47,479 --> 01:14:50,200
Speaker 3: you and said, Hey, Mark, I'm going to Colts and

1630
01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:52,240
Speaker 3: call games for the Colts, but I'm gonna stay here

1631
01:14:52,240 --> 01:14:56,520
Speaker 3: through the rest of this year. Huh, yeah, exactly exactly.

1632
01:14:56,600 --> 01:14:59,320
Speaker 3: That's that's the point, Like how I just don't.

1633
01:14:59,240 --> 01:15:00,200
Speaker 1: Think that that Pard.

1634
01:15:00,200 --> 01:15:02,800
Speaker 3: I don't think people are, you know, because John Sommerl's

1635
01:15:02,840 --> 01:15:05,920
Speaker 3: doing it for Tulane. Well, Tulane and Florida live in

1636
01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:09,920
Speaker 3: different worlds. Oh Miss and Lsu are neighbors.

1637
01:15:10,400 --> 01:15:11,240
Speaker 1: Like, Hey, I'm gonna go.

1638
01:15:12,040 --> 01:15:14,760
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with my neighbor's wife over here, so

1639
01:15:14,920 --> 01:15:17,280
Speaker 3: good luck, you know, but you know I want to

1640
01:15:17,320 --> 01:15:20,600
Speaker 3: stick around for New Year's and have fun. No, you

1641
01:15:20,680 --> 01:15:23,040
Speaker 3: go next door, pal, We'll move forward With Pete Golding.

1642
01:15:23,400 --> 01:15:25,600
Speaker 3: I thought it was the most asidine thing. Look for

1643
01:15:25,720 --> 01:15:28,360
Speaker 3: him asking Hey, he can ask.

1644
01:15:28,240 --> 01:15:30,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you can always say no, you can always

1645
01:15:30,520 --> 01:15:33,040
Speaker 2: say that's what they did. Yeah, it's And the funny

1646
01:15:33,040 --> 01:15:36,720
Speaker 2: thing is Lane Kiffin became likable again or likable maybe

1647
01:15:36,760 --> 01:15:38,920
Speaker 2: for the first time as the old Miss coach because

1648
01:15:39,040 --> 01:15:41,599
Speaker 2: kind of a character and it's interesting and old Miss,

1649
01:15:41,800 --> 01:15:44,320
Speaker 2: and now everyone hates him again, and here we go.

1650
01:15:44,360 --> 01:15:48,439
Speaker 4: It goes like, Brian, where did elis you get all

1651
01:15:48,479 --> 01:15:51,920
Speaker 4: this money where they can buy out Brian Kelly, give

1652
01:15:51,960 --> 01:15:54,240
Speaker 4: them Lane Kiff and one hundred million. I just read

1653
01:15:54,280 --> 01:15:56,599
Speaker 4: a year or so ago that you know how badly

1654
01:15:56,680 --> 01:15:59,640
Speaker 4: that that program was struggling, and it was in it

1655
01:15:59,680 --> 01:16:01,960
Speaker 4: And all of a sudden they find the money to

1656
01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:04,680
Speaker 4: get Brian Kelly find the money to pay Lane King

1657
01:16:04,800 --> 01:16:06,840
Speaker 4: And this is crazy, and then they're gonna give him

1658
01:16:07,120 --> 01:16:10,519
Speaker 4: twenty five million dollars a year to go shopping for

1659
01:16:10,880 --> 01:16:13,640
Speaker 4: uh for NIL players. I mean that that in and

1660
01:16:13,640 --> 01:16:17,439
Speaker 4: of itself is is crazy. So I guess they have it.

1661
01:16:17,439 --> 01:16:20,720
Speaker 4: It was maybe maybe what I was reading was misreported

1662
01:16:20,880 --> 01:16:24,400
Speaker 4: or whatever, but they they've certainly found guests on the

1663
01:16:24,880 --> 01:16:26,559
Speaker 4: bag in which to pay Kiffin with.

1664
01:16:27,080 --> 01:16:29,080
Speaker 2: Be careful what you ask for. Go nine and three

1665
01:16:29,120 --> 01:16:32,360
Speaker 2: next to year Kiffin. See how that feels. Yeah at LSU, yeah,

1666
01:16:32,439 --> 01:16:34,519
Speaker 2: see at all missed. They would be like, okay, great,

1667
01:16:34,600 --> 01:16:36,200
Speaker 2: but you know we missed it.

1668
01:16:36,280 --> 01:16:38,280
Speaker 3: So fans ain't want to go to the Ala mobile.

1669
01:16:38,360 --> 01:16:42,760
Speaker 3: No fense San Antonio. But you're paying that for Lank Kiven. No,

1670
01:16:42,800 --> 01:16:44,040
Speaker 3: by the way, they're still paying ed Ors.

1671
01:16:44,080 --> 01:16:44,479
Speaker 1: You're on two.

1672
01:16:44,880 --> 01:16:47,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, so here we go, Here we go. This is

1673
01:16:47,520 --> 01:16:50,160
Speaker 2: gonna be rough, all right, dra Well, thanks so much.

1674
01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:54,559
Speaker 2: You got Jmu this week right some Belt championship.

1675
01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:57,840
Speaker 4: Jmu and Troy in the Sunbelt Championship game. There was

1676
01:16:57,880 --> 01:17:02,360
Speaker 4: an outside chance that Jay and you can maybe skate

1677
01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:06,160
Speaker 4: into the playoff if some things happened differently the last

1678
01:17:06,160 --> 01:17:08,280
Speaker 4: two weeks of the season. I don't see a path

1679
01:17:08,360 --> 01:17:11,880
Speaker 4: for them to get in now so that it'll be

1680
01:17:11,920 --> 01:17:14,479
Speaker 4: a tough game, but they can still finish with a

1681
01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:18,920
Speaker 4: twelve wins season and get to a higher bowl game

1682
01:17:18,960 --> 01:17:21,320
Speaker 4: than they they maybe thought they would get to before

1683
01:17:21,360 --> 01:17:22,240
Speaker 4: the season started.

1684
01:17:22,880 --> 01:17:24,120
Speaker 1: Very cool the Dukes.

1691
01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:44,920
Speaker 2: two men behind Kate Stover. Do they have the seven

1692

1698
01:18:00,439 --> 01:18:04,680
Speaker 2: return of CJ. Stroud at Indie Texans winners and they

1699
01:18:04,680 --> 01:18:07,559
Speaker 2: get it done, scoring twenty points. And they got two

1700
01:18:07,560 --> 01:18:10,200
Speaker 2: big touchdown drives in this one. I say big because hey,

1701
01:18:10,200 --> 01:18:13,320
Speaker 2: the Colts, they know how a lockdown on defense against

1702
01:18:13,400 --> 01:18:16,840
Speaker 2: the run. Texans ram for over one hundred and we're

1703
01:18:16,880 --> 01:18:19,360
Speaker 2: able to come away with the victory. Number one defense

1704
01:18:19,400 --> 01:18:21,640
Speaker 2: in the league points and yards. Again, the Rams had

1705
01:18:21,640 --> 01:18:24,120
Speaker 2: the two tenths of a point advantage, but they gave

1706
01:18:24,240 --> 01:18:26,320
Speaker 2: up thirty one going into the weekend, but they gave

1707
01:18:26,400 --> 01:18:29,680
Speaker 2: up thirty one at Carolina Texans number one d and

1708
01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:32,600
Speaker 2: the offense climbing the charts, and the team climbing the

1709
01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:34,759
Speaker 2: charts with four victories in a row. And we visit

1710
01:18:34,880 --> 01:18:38,200
Speaker 2: with the Hall of Famer John McClain general, How did

1711
01:18:38,240 --> 01:18:41,080
Speaker 2: you see it yesterday? Watching the Colts lose to the

1712
01:18:41,120 --> 01:18:43,240
Speaker 2: Texans in Indy?

1713
01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:47,880
Speaker 8: I thought it concluded a November to remember after that

1714
01:18:48,680 --> 01:18:52,960
Speaker 8: heartbreaking loss at home to the Broncos in which CJ.

1715
01:18:53,120 --> 01:18:57,800
Speaker 8: Stroud was knocked out, but then adding four consecutive victories,

1716
01:18:58,200 --> 01:19:01,880
Speaker 8: You guys know this time up rate the contenders from

1717
01:19:01,920 --> 01:19:06,680
Speaker 8: the pretenders, and the Texans know they are a legitimate candidate,

1718
01:19:06,840 --> 01:19:09,840
Speaker 8: not just to win a wildcard birth, but to win

1719
01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:14,280
Speaker 8: a third consecutive division title. What a Game's Sunday Night,

1720
01:19:14,479 --> 01:19:19,120
Speaker 8: National TV, and they'll know what happened with Jacksonville and Indy.

1721
01:19:19,720 --> 01:19:24,160
Speaker 8: When the Colts visit the Jaguars, it's a three team races.

1722
01:19:25,040 --> 01:19:28,720
Speaker 8: It's the hottest race in the NFL, in the AFC

1723
01:19:28,960 --> 01:19:32,519
Speaker 8: South and the defense. Of course, that was ten games

1724
01:19:32,560 --> 01:19:37,080
Speaker 8: in which the Texans have allowed fewer twenty points or fewer,

1725
01:19:37,439 --> 01:19:39,120
Speaker 8: and that's the best in the NFL.

1726
01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:42,439
Speaker 3: And I think you said a general, maybe you didn't

1727
01:19:42,520 --> 01:19:44,120
Speaker 3: held the Colts on their twenty. It's the first time

1728
01:19:44,120 --> 01:19:47,160
Speaker 3: they've been held their twenty all year long, and there

1729
01:19:47,160 --> 01:19:50,880
Speaker 3: are a lot of factors for that. Well, how do

1730
01:19:50,920 --> 01:19:53,320
Speaker 3: you think they did on Jonathan Taylor? John he went

1731
01:19:53,400 --> 01:19:56,160
Speaker 3: twenty one for eighty five. He had that one screen

1732
01:19:56,320 --> 01:19:59,200
Speaker 3: for thirty three, so he ends up with one hundred

1733
01:19:59,240 --> 01:20:03,720
Speaker 3: and eight teen total yards from scrimmage.

1734
01:20:03,920 --> 01:20:06,240
Speaker 1: How do you think they did on Jonathan Taylor yesterday?

1735
01:20:06,960 --> 01:20:09,519
Speaker 8: Oh, he didn't get one hundred yards. That's kind that

1736
01:20:09,600 --> 01:20:13,639
Speaker 8: says benchmark. And he had his longest run was twelve yards.

1737
01:20:14,080 --> 01:20:16,320
Speaker 8: Every time he gets the ball and he's not in

1738
01:20:16,360 --> 01:20:20,120
Speaker 8: a scrum, you worry about him breaking it. And the

1739
01:20:20,240 --> 01:20:23,320
Speaker 8: Taxans did a good job with tackling and when they

1740
01:20:23,400 --> 01:20:27,080
Speaker 8: got to him, and that was so important. But anytime

1741
01:20:27,120 --> 01:20:30,280
Speaker 8: you limit them to eighty six yards in three point

1742
01:20:30,360 --> 01:20:33,559
Speaker 8: seven yards of carry, you got a chance to win.

1743
01:20:33,680 --> 01:20:38,360
Speaker 8: Because teams that have beaten them Kansas City Pittsburgh. It's

1744
01:20:38,439 --> 01:20:42,639
Speaker 8: all because they've limited Taylor to fewer than one hundred

1745
01:20:42,720 --> 01:20:46,360
Speaker 8: yards and made Daniel Jones beat them, and he hasn't

1746
01:20:46,680 --> 01:20:49,160
Speaker 8: been able to do it. You know, only got one sack,

1747
01:20:49,680 --> 01:20:53,280
Speaker 8: but they got good pressure. He had two touchdown passes.

1748
01:20:53,360 --> 01:20:57,120
Speaker 8: It was a gallant performance by him. We're playing with

1749
01:20:57,240 --> 01:21:02,320
Speaker 8: a fractured fibula. But the bottom line is this defense again,

1750
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:06,679
Speaker 8: as Mark mentions, number one and fewest points allowed after

1751
01:21:06,800 --> 01:21:10,439
Speaker 8: barely falling behind the Rams. And I can't wait for

1752
01:21:10,520 --> 01:21:14,680
Speaker 8: that Sunday night game being on the national stage for

1753
01:21:14,880 --> 01:21:19,320
Speaker 8: the highest rated program of the week every week.

1754
01:21:20,160 --> 01:21:22,839
Speaker 2: That's right, number one show on television Sunday Night Football

1755
01:21:22,840 --> 01:21:25,200
Speaker 2: and number one of the radio two. As you'll hear

1756
01:21:25,240 --> 01:21:30,240
Speaker 2: at Sunday Night Texans at Chiefs General offensively, the evolutions

1757
01:21:30,439 --> 01:21:34,960
Speaker 2: return of ste c J. Stroud and the offense evolving

1758
01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:37,880
Speaker 2: with the touch push, with everything else they're doing trying

1759
01:21:37,880 --> 01:21:41,400
Speaker 2: to be more creative. Nico Collins end around for the touchdown.

1760
01:21:41,439 --> 01:21:45,000
Speaker 2: Your thoughts on their development overall?

1761
01:21:45,240 --> 01:21:49,360
Speaker 8: Stroud looked like a quarterback at times. He'd missed three games.

1762
01:21:49,439 --> 01:21:52,519
Speaker 8: He had cobwebs to work off. He missed targets that

1763
01:21:53,160 --> 01:21:56,200
Speaker 8: ordinarily would have hit. But overall, I thought he had

1764
01:21:56,240 --> 01:21:59,640
Speaker 8: a terrific game two hundred seventy six yards, He had

1765
01:22:00,200 --> 01:22:03,599
Speaker 8: interception to set up a touchdown drive, and his rating

1766
01:22:03,760 --> 01:22:06,879
Speaker 8: was only seventy five point four compared to Daniel Jones

1767
01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:10,519
Speaker 8: one oh one. That they'll take it into victory every week,

1768
01:22:11,080 --> 01:22:16,080
Speaker 8: and I expect him at Kansas City to be even better,

1769
01:22:16,400 --> 01:22:19,800
Speaker 8: even more accurate. Hit some of those plays he was

1770
01:22:19,880 --> 01:22:25,120
Speaker 8: unable to hit. Excuse me, Nick Kayley had that great

1771
01:22:25,160 --> 01:22:29,559
Speaker 8: call on Nico Collins running for the winning touchdown and

1772
01:22:29,640 --> 01:22:31,600
Speaker 8: the Toush push. I like it when it works. I

1773
01:22:31,640 --> 01:22:35,080
Speaker 8: don't like it when it doesn't work. And be interesting

1774
01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:38,280
Speaker 8: to see when Kayley's asked about it this week, having

1775
01:22:38,320 --> 01:22:43,200
Speaker 8: your two fullbacks behind the quarterback and that in this

1776
01:22:43,360 --> 01:22:47,519
Speaker 8: case is Stover taking the snap? And why not too big?

1777
01:22:47,600 --> 01:22:52,160
Speaker 8: Lineman always wanted Trent Brown. Do they list at six

1778
01:22:52,280 --> 01:22:54,759
Speaker 8: eight and three eighty He's been listed at three eighty

1779
01:22:55,240 --> 01:22:58,280
Speaker 8: for ten years. You know he's over four. If he

1780
01:22:58,520 --> 01:23:03,040
Speaker 8: was behind doing the pushing, how that crowd that everything

1781
01:23:03,080 --> 01:23:06,120
Speaker 8: a power might be moved about ten yards? But it

1782
01:23:06,200 --> 01:23:10,080
Speaker 8: worked twice, didn't work twice, and they escaped with that

1783
01:23:10,240 --> 01:23:13,320
Speaker 8: victory I just read where the Chiefs might have three

1784
01:23:13,400 --> 01:23:18,120
Speaker 8: backup offensive lineman playing because of injuries, and how scary

1785
01:23:18,160 --> 01:23:21,920
Speaker 8: that is considering how well the Texans play up front,

1786
01:23:22,479 --> 01:23:26,960
Speaker 8: and so I wish that Sunday night or tomorrow.

1787
01:23:28,240 --> 01:23:31,680
Speaker 3: Okay, it's my question of the week. As always, get

1788
01:23:31,720 --> 01:23:32,519
Speaker 3: your dollar ready.

1789
01:23:32,600 --> 01:23:34,360
Speaker 1: Okay, got your dollar it.

1790
01:23:34,439 --> 01:23:37,080
Speaker 3: You can go to your local establishment and go to

1791
01:23:37,160 --> 01:23:39,120
Speaker 3: lizards with Sean if you want. I'm sure they've got

1792
01:23:39,120 --> 01:23:42,360
Speaker 3: a sports book there. You got books all over the place.

1793
01:23:42,720 --> 01:23:45,400
Speaker 3: Here's your dollar, and I'm gonna make this real easy.

1794
01:23:46,280 --> 01:23:48,960
Speaker 3: You get to go and put that dollar on the

1795
01:23:49,040 --> 01:23:52,759
Speaker 3: team you believe in the most over the last five

1796
01:23:52,840 --> 01:23:58,080
Speaker 3: games of the year, either the Indianapolis Colts or the

1797
01:23:58,240 --> 01:24:02,439
Speaker 3: Jacksonville jaguarsen you get to go first. It's the only

1798
01:24:02,680 --> 01:24:05,360
Speaker 3: two teams you can bet on. Are those two? You're

1799
01:24:05,400 --> 01:24:09,479
Speaker 3: gonna get a winner one of those two. Which team

1800
01:24:09,600 --> 01:24:12,960
Speaker 3: do you believe in the most? You've seen twelve games

1801
01:24:13,000 --> 01:24:13,639
Speaker 3: I think of each?

1802
01:24:13,720 --> 01:24:15,880
Speaker 1: Is that right? Yeah? Twelve of each, which, by the way,

1803
01:24:15,880 --> 01:24:16,559
Speaker 1: we're seven and five.

1804
01:24:16,560 --> 01:24:18,320
Speaker 3: We were seven and five last year too, by the way,

1805
01:24:18,680 --> 01:24:20,200
Speaker 3: which is kind of crazy to eighty five.

1806
01:24:20,320 --> 01:24:21,920
Speaker 1: Yeah and eight and five, So hopef we were eight

1807
01:24:21,960 --> 01:24:25,200
Speaker 1: and five. General the Colts or the Jags, What are

1808
01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:26,040
Speaker 1: you doing with your dollar?

1809
01:24:26,920 --> 01:24:30,000
Speaker 8: I'm going with the Jaguars because the Texans have played

1810
01:24:30,040 --> 01:24:33,599
Speaker 8: them twice. The Texans still have a chance to sweep

1811
01:24:33,680 --> 01:24:38,800
Speaker 8: the Colts, and with Daniel Jones having that injury, and

1812
01:24:38,920 --> 01:24:41,760
Speaker 8: with them having so many good receivers and a good

1813
01:24:41,800 --> 01:24:44,720
Speaker 8: tight end, but they weren't able to utilize them the

1814
01:24:44,720 --> 01:24:48,280
Speaker 8: way they wanted. But it's hard for me to believe

1815
01:24:48,280 --> 01:24:51,880
Speaker 8: in the Jaguars after seeing the Texans do what they

1816
01:24:51,960 --> 01:24:55,240
Speaker 8: did to them here in the fourth quarter behind Davis Mills,

1817
01:24:55,280 --> 01:24:58,719
Speaker 8: and then thinking about that first game, three fourth quarter

1818
01:24:58,840 --> 01:25:02,519
Speaker 8: touchdowns in a red I mean turnovers in the red

1819
01:25:02,600 --> 01:25:05,400
Speaker 8: zone out easily the Texans could have won that game.

1820
01:25:05,760 --> 01:25:09,559
Speaker 8: But I'm still going with Jacksonville. Trevor Lawrence is healthy,

1821
01:25:09,640 --> 01:25:13,559
Speaker 8: they got pretty good balance, they got Brian Thomas junior back.

1822
01:25:14,640 --> 01:25:18,920
Speaker 8: Jakobe Myers has been a terrific addition at the trade deadline,

1823
01:25:19,400 --> 01:25:23,720
Speaker 8: and so there's a chance the Texans could play either

1824
01:25:23,720 --> 01:25:27,120
Speaker 8: one of those teams three times. But give me Jacksonville

1825
01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:27,759
Speaker 8: right now.

1826
01:25:28,360 --> 01:25:31,760
Speaker 1: Damn you, Gladstone going on, get ja Kobe Myers. Yeah,

1827
01:25:31,800 --> 01:25:33,559
Speaker 1: that's a help. Let me pick up for them.

1828
01:25:34,400 --> 01:25:36,040
Speaker 3: If you go with the Jags, you go with Trevor,

1829
01:25:36,479 --> 01:25:37,960
Speaker 3: you go with Trevor's up, Trevor.

1830
01:25:38,040 --> 01:25:41,120
Speaker 2: They're finding ways to win. I just look, I picked

1831
01:25:41,120 --> 01:25:44,639
Speaker 2: the Jaguars over the Colts right now, having seen both recently,

1832
01:25:44,960 --> 01:25:46,839
Speaker 2: and the Colts with Daniel Jones injury.

1833
01:25:46,960 --> 01:25:50,360
Speaker 1: If Daniel Jones miraculously.

1834
01:25:49,680 --> 01:25:51,800
Speaker 2: Heals and can run with the ball a little bit,

1835
01:25:51,840 --> 01:25:53,840
Speaker 2: get a little more mobile, that would be good for

1836
01:25:53,880 --> 01:25:55,800
Speaker 2: the Colts. But I don't want to see that. Take

1837
01:25:55,840 --> 01:25:59,360
Speaker 2: a rest, everybody. Let's take the division. But Johnny, your

1838
01:25:59,439 --> 01:26:01,599
Speaker 2: usual question, who's the best team in the league. It's

1839
01:26:01,640 --> 01:26:03,360
Speaker 2: really tough because it do.

1840
01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:05,120
Speaker 1: You believe in New England? Really?

1841
01:26:05,680 --> 01:26:08,760
Speaker 2: Denver looks very ten and two, but they're shaky as

1842
01:26:08,800 --> 01:26:13,120
Speaker 2: all get Barryota gets that ball over, Nick Benito, it's

1843
01:26:13,200 --> 01:26:15,559
Speaker 2: ballgame command. They win games by the hair of their

1844
01:26:15,640 --> 01:26:17,679
Speaker 2: chinny chin chin. And you could say, look, the Texans

1845
01:26:17,720 --> 01:26:18,439
Speaker 2: win close games.

1846
01:26:18,479 --> 01:26:18,920
Speaker 1: I get it.

1847
01:26:19,040 --> 01:26:22,840
Speaker 2: I'm not putting the Texans in this conversation yet yet.

1848
01:26:22,960 --> 01:26:25,080
Speaker 2: But who's the team you believe in the most general?

1849
01:26:25,320 --> 01:26:27,519
Speaker 2: Because is it the Rams? They turned it over like

1850
01:26:27,560 --> 01:26:29,360
Speaker 2: it was on fire against Carolina?

1851
01:26:29,479 --> 01:26:32,439
Speaker 1: The Bears, the Bears, Really you want to. They're only

1852
01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:33,719
Speaker 1: shaky kind of.

1853
01:26:34,080 --> 01:26:37,679
Speaker 2: Really successful teams right now. But maybe the Bears aren't

1854
01:26:37,680 --> 01:26:40,080
Speaker 2: as shaky as we thought. Maybe Ben Johnson is the answer.

1855
01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:43,000
Speaker 2: The Seahawks. They're nine to three. I don't know that.

1856
01:26:43,120 --> 01:26:47,639
Speaker 2: NFC west Race, by the way, that is hot. Nine wins,

1857
01:26:47,680 --> 01:26:50,120
Speaker 2: it's unbelievable. Yeah, and the other two or nine and three?

1858
01:26:50,120 --> 01:26:52,040
Speaker 2: All right, general, what are your thoughts? Who's the best team?

1859
01:26:52,080 --> 01:26:53,160
Speaker 2: Who do you believe in the most?

1860
01:26:53,240 --> 01:26:53,679
Speaker 1: Overall?

1861
01:26:53,720 --> 01:26:54,840
Speaker 2: Take the Texans out of it.

1862
01:26:55,560 --> 01:26:58,840
Speaker 8: I'm still taking the Rams. Everybody has a bad game.

1863
01:26:58,880 --> 01:27:02,720
Speaker 8: They had a bad game. Matthew Stafford had thrown two interceptions.

1864
01:27:02,720 --> 01:27:05,200
Speaker 8: He threw two against the Panthers and lost to Pumble.

1865
01:27:05,680 --> 01:27:07,720
Speaker 8: May have gotten it out of the system. They have

1866
01:27:07,880 --> 01:27:11,200
Speaker 8: good balance, they have good defense, good running games. So

1867
01:27:11,320 --> 01:27:14,840
Speaker 8: I'm sticking with the Rams. I'd like to take the Seahawksmen.

1868
01:27:15,240 --> 01:27:19,240
Speaker 8: Nobody can pay attention to that game. Yesterday Minnesota started

1869
01:27:19,240 --> 01:27:23,160
Speaker 8: a quarterback, an undrafted rookie free agent who played, they say,

1870
01:27:23,200 --> 01:27:26,440
Speaker 8: one of the worst games in the history of Pro football.

1871
01:27:27,160 --> 01:27:31,519
Speaker 8: And New England and the Bears. You know you're talking

1872
01:27:31,560 --> 01:27:36,559
Speaker 8: about quarterbacks. If it's New England and Drake May against

1873
01:27:36,600 --> 01:27:40,280
Speaker 8: the Broncos and their defense. Every week, everybody talks about,

1874
01:27:40,320 --> 01:27:43,320
Speaker 8: oh man, the Broncos are getting lucky. They're doing this

1875
01:27:43,320 --> 01:27:46,519
Speaker 8: this this kind of like the Chiefs got lucky last

1876
01:27:46,600 --> 01:27:49,839
Speaker 8: year with all those late victories and one score games.

1877
01:27:49,840 --> 01:27:52,880
Speaker 8: So I'm going with the Broncos in the AFC. And

1878
01:27:52,960 --> 01:27:56,479
Speaker 8: I don't care that Mariota didn't get the pass high enough.

1879
01:27:57,000 --> 01:28:01,080
Speaker 8: It was a great game and all Texans fans should

1880
01:28:01,120 --> 01:28:04,240
Speaker 8: have been praying for the Broncos to win that game.

1881
01:28:04,280 --> 01:28:07,280
Speaker 8: And that Laramie Tunsel Pigs in a second and fourth

1882
01:28:07,360 --> 01:28:10,760
Speaker 8: round are higher, and because it's obvious that Texans are

1883
01:28:10,800 --> 01:28:15,960
Speaker 8: not gonna be I And so I'm going with the Rams.

1884
01:28:16,040 --> 01:28:16,960
Speaker 4: And the Broncos.

1885
01:28:18,520 --> 01:28:21,080
Speaker 1: That's right. I forgot about those draft picks, by the way. Yeah.

1886
01:28:21,240 --> 01:28:24,400
Speaker 3: Vikings QBR in week twelve with JJ McCarthy thirty four

1887
01:28:24,439 --> 01:28:27,519
Speaker 3: point two. Vikings QBR in week thirteen was Max Brosmer,

1888
01:28:27,760 --> 01:28:29,960
Speaker 3: the undrafted free agent that general talked about, thirty two

1889
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:33,439
Speaker 3: point eight QBR. If you spiked the ball every play,

1890
01:28:33,560 --> 01:28:34,920
Speaker 3: thirty nine point sid.

1891
01:28:35,400 --> 01:28:37,840
Speaker 1: So funny, it's going to hell.

1892
01:28:38,840 --> 01:28:41,160
Speaker 2: Rusty Smith called and said that was a rough outing

1893
01:28:41,280 --> 01:28:44,439
Speaker 2: by bros Mur. Yeah, that's a dated reference. But a

1894
01:28:44,439 --> 01:28:49,519
Speaker 2: good one. Fans, You know that one question of the morning.

1895
01:28:49,840 --> 01:28:52,439
Speaker 2: Should college coaches be allowed to coach at their team

1896
01:28:52,600 --> 01:28:55,240
Speaker 2: despite taking another job. Your thoughts on the whole Kiffin

1897
01:28:55,320 --> 01:28:58,719
Speaker 2: situation and the mess that is college football, these coaching changes,

1898
01:28:58,800 --> 01:28:59,720
Speaker 2: the portal, all of it.

1899
01:29:00,400 --> 01:29:02,360
Speaker 4: I blame this all on the NCAA.

1900
01:29:02,520 --> 01:29:05,240
Speaker 8: The portals should not open and recruiting should not go

1901
01:29:05,360 --> 01:29:10,040
Speaker 8: on until everybody's through. It is chaos and it's their

1902
01:29:10,080 --> 01:29:13,599
Speaker 8: own doing. And if it's in the conference like that,

1903
01:29:14,240 --> 01:29:16,800
Speaker 8: of course, Lane Kiffin shouldn't be able to coach Old

1904
01:29:16,840 --> 01:29:21,240
Speaker 8: Miss when he's gonna take some guys to LSU, even

1905
01:29:21,280 --> 01:29:23,879
Speaker 8: though it looks like he had some kind of promise

1906
01:29:24,000 --> 01:29:27,240
Speaker 8: or guarantee that he would not take anybody if they

1907
01:29:27,280 --> 01:29:30,640
Speaker 8: allowed him to stay and coach. But judging by the

1908
01:29:30,680 --> 01:29:34,479
Speaker 8: reaction on the defensive coordinator who was elevated, the players

1909
01:29:34,960 --> 01:29:38,000
Speaker 8: are buying in Joe Judge is still is going to

1910
01:29:38,080 --> 01:29:41,120
Speaker 8: be calling the plays overt Kiff, And so I think

1911
01:29:41,160 --> 01:29:45,800
Speaker 8: in other situations where you have the other coaches are

1912
01:29:45,880 --> 01:29:50,040
Speaker 8: going to bigger schools, like goal is going to Auburn

1913
01:29:50,120 --> 01:29:53,640
Speaker 8: and from South Florida. South Florida, we're in the playoffs.

1914
01:29:53,680 --> 01:29:57,240
Speaker 8: I think it would not be direct competition, they'd be

1915
01:29:57,320 --> 01:29:59,600
Speaker 8: more in line to do it. That's what's going on

1916
01:29:59,640 --> 01:30:02,840
Speaker 8: over there. Morris at North Texas, if they get into

1917
01:30:02,880 --> 01:30:06,160
Speaker 8: the college football playoffs, he's coaching them as long as

1918
01:30:06,200 --> 01:30:10,799
Speaker 8: they're surviving, and they have no problem with it. Giffing,

1919
01:30:10,880 --> 01:30:15,719
Speaker 8: Would anybody trust Lane Kiffin on anything he says about anything?

1920
01:30:16,360 --> 01:30:19,680
Speaker 2: No, no, no way, no way. I mean I might

1921
01:30:19,680 --> 01:30:20,799
Speaker 2: trust him that he's gonna.

1922
01:30:20,560 --> 01:30:23,519
Speaker 1: Pay dog Juice Kiffin. I might trust the dog, but.

1923
01:30:23,840 --> 01:30:26,599
Speaker 2: No, I mean I might trust him paint his yoga bill.

1924
01:30:27,160 --> 01:30:29,200
Speaker 2: All right, General, thanks so much for the time. We'll

1925
01:30:29,200 --> 01:30:29,920
Speaker 2: catch up soon.

1926
01:30:30,600 --> 01:30:32,400
Speaker 1: Sounds good, guys, Thank you very much.

1927
01:30:32,880 --> 01:30:35,759
Speaker 2: John McLean joining us on Texans Monday, coming up smoking

Speaker 2: at the Chiefs once again thirty one degree high Sunday

1930

Speaker 2: more Texans Monday.

1932
01:30:49,760 --> 01:30:53,639
Speaker 1: Stroud takes the snap. Stroud takes the gift. Stroud fires

1933
01:30:53,720 --> 01:30:54,600
Speaker 1: downfield to his right.

1934
01:30:54,720 --> 01:30:57,120
Speaker 2: Nico Collins at the fifty breaks of tackle forty five

1935
01:30:57,160 --> 01:30:59,360
Speaker 2: and he's out of the forty one yard line, buying them.

1936
01:30:59,280 --> 01:30:59,719
Speaker 1: With their shoes.

1937
01:30:59,720 --> 01:31:03,040
Speaker 2: Straight tackle, big play to Nico Collins. He spins the

1938
01:31:03,080 --> 01:31:07,479
Speaker 2: ball in celebration, almost a hundi for Nico, who's climbing

1939
01:31:07,520 --> 01:31:11,599
Speaker 2: the charts in the NFL in receiving yardage man after

1940
01:31:11,640 --> 01:31:15,000
Speaker 2: a sluggish start to the season. And it's always weird

1941
01:31:15,000 --> 01:31:16,920
Speaker 2: with receivers, you know, people ask me like, why isn't

1942
01:31:16,960 --> 01:31:19,519
Speaker 2: so and so getty more receptions or whatever? Like this

1943
01:31:19,560 --> 01:31:23,040
Speaker 2: is a team effort here to get an individual the

1944
01:31:23,120 --> 01:31:26,599
Speaker 2: ball right at that position where you need the blocking

1945
01:31:26,680 --> 01:31:29,479
Speaker 2: and the throwing and the play design and the catch

1946
01:31:29,520 --> 01:31:29,920
Speaker 2: all of it.

1947
01:31:30,080 --> 01:31:30,320
Speaker 4: Right.

1948
01:31:30,400 --> 01:31:32,800
Speaker 2: If somebody's getting a ton of drops, well that's on them.

1949
01:31:33,120 --> 01:31:35,080
Speaker 2: But you know Nico's got to get the ball. And

1950
01:31:35,120 --> 01:31:37,439
Speaker 2: Nico's getting the ball now, which is very cool to see.

1951
01:31:37,439 --> 01:31:39,920
Speaker 2: He's still the second leading receiver on this team behind

1952
01:31:39,920 --> 01:31:42,000
Speaker 2: Schultz who's got a ton of receptions, and Schultz is

1953
01:31:42,000 --> 01:31:44,400
Speaker 2: a great weapon for this squad. It's not a contest.

1954
01:31:44,560 --> 01:31:47,160
Speaker 2: I just want to see number twelve get the ball

1955
01:31:47,160 --> 01:31:47,840
Speaker 2: an awful lot.

1956
01:31:47,960 --> 01:31:51,200
Speaker 3: Can I read you Daniel Jeremia's post, Ye please slash Twitter,

1957
01:31:51,240 --> 01:31:57,519
Speaker 3: do it? Nico Collins slash Jaden Higgins equals twin towers

1958
01:31:57,560 --> 01:31:59,760
Speaker 3: two dot h and then he's got a gift of

1959
01:31:59,800 --> 01:32:03,400
Speaker 3: a kim Elijah Wan schooling David Robinson in the ninety

1960
01:32:03,400 --> 01:32:06,679
Speaker 3: five playoffs. It's like, man that hits it to Houston

1961
01:32:06,840 --> 01:32:08,479
Speaker 3: cores right there, Like.

1962
01:32:08,720 --> 01:32:11,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, when he went to Ladies, should have gone nineteen

1963
01:32:11,800 --> 01:32:15,160
Speaker 2: eighty five Western Conference Finals against the Lakers' right, So

1964
01:32:15,240 --> 01:32:16,439
Speaker 2: he's just hitting the big shot.

1965
01:32:16,560 --> 01:32:19,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, he just showed. He just showed Elijah Wan. Uh,

1966
01:32:19,640 --> 01:32:21,920
Speaker 3: but I love it. I mean west stead of Draft Draft,

1967
01:32:22,000 --> 01:32:24,519
Speaker 3: the second night Draft Knight, because the first night Leary

1968
01:32:24,560 --> 01:32:26,519
Speaker 3: and Stafford is really mad about Matthew Golden and I

1969
01:32:26,520 --> 01:32:28,160
Speaker 3: was like, oh, calm down, because we'll be fine and

1970
01:32:28,200 --> 01:32:30,240
Speaker 3: we get jayde Higgins. I think we're very happy with

1971
01:32:30,320 --> 01:32:33,720
Speaker 3: Jane Higgins on this lush So I was like, and

1972
01:32:34,040 --> 01:32:36,559
Speaker 3: Nico was my comp for jayde Higgins. Now that I've

1973
01:32:36,600 --> 01:32:41,120
Speaker 3: seen them up close, I wouldn't have like this way.

1974
01:32:41,200 --> 01:32:44,040
Speaker 3: I don't know that I would have said it, but Nico,

1975
01:32:44,439 --> 01:32:47,960
Speaker 3: and this is where I hope Jayden goes. Nico is

1976
01:32:48,120 --> 01:32:51,840
Speaker 3: tremendous after the catch, Like when he catches it, there's

1977
01:32:51,880 --> 01:32:54,320
Speaker 3: no telling whether he's gonna break away from a safety

1978
01:32:54,360 --> 01:32:55,920
Speaker 3: and take it to the house.

1979
01:32:55,960 --> 01:32:57,639
Speaker 1: Dresh guys four or five more are.

1980
01:32:57,800 --> 01:32:59,760
Speaker 3: Exactly and that that part of his game. I was

1981
01:32:59,760 --> 01:33:01,400
Speaker 3: at I think I was in Buffalo, and they're like,

1982
01:33:01,439 --> 01:33:03,880
Speaker 3: what makes Nico Collins so good? And I said that

1983
01:33:04,560 --> 01:33:07,719
Speaker 3: he can. He can become a running back really fast

1984
01:33:07,760 --> 01:33:09,160
Speaker 3: and coming off the field. I wanted to do but

1985
01:33:09,280 --> 01:33:12,759
Speaker 3: I said running back Nico Collins and he just smiled.

1986
01:33:12,840 --> 01:33:14,840
Speaker 1: He was so happy to get that running touchdown. Was great.

1987
01:33:15,479 --> 01:33:18,559
Speaker 3: But now you had Higgins in there with the catch

1988
01:33:18,640 --> 01:33:21,559
Speaker 3: radius that he has and the way that he's learning

1989
01:33:21,600 --> 01:33:25,080
Speaker 3: how to body control feet on the sidelines, you know

1990
01:33:25,120 --> 01:33:28,280
Speaker 3: where you can when a guy six' four as a.

1991
01:33:28,360 --> 01:33:30,559
Speaker 3: Quarterback If i'm c jam, LIKE i love this BECAUSE

1992
01:33:30,600 --> 01:33:32,960
Speaker 3: i could throw this ball way away from the defense

1993
01:33:33,000 --> 01:33:33,960
Speaker 3: and he still can catch.

1994
01:33:34,040 --> 01:33:35,720
Speaker 1: It it's Like hop throwing The Hop bull those.

1995
01:33:35,800 --> 01:33:38,280
