00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:17,120
Speaker 1: play golf today? I might have played recently, don't tell

6
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 1: anybody about that, but it's happened, but not today. Today

7
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:22,960
Speaker 1: has been. Today is one of the most perfect days

8
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,520
Speaker 1: in the history of the world on planet Earth. It's

9
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,639
Speaker 1: unbelievable entire planet. These are the days you want to

10
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 1: live in Houston. Yesterday was walking out of the building. Yeah,

11
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:35,520
Speaker 1: on a Wednesday when most people are working at school

12
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 1: or wherever you are. Yeah, yesterday I was walking out

13
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 1: of the building and there there was somebody walking behind

14
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: me and walked out and and I heard him just say, oh,

15
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 1: move me to Houston right now. It was like, Yeah,

16
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:51,920
Speaker 1: you might want to say that in August, but right now.

17
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: I love it all. I love it all. Bring the heat, baby,

18
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: I love it well. We won't be experiencing the heat

19
00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: for at least a few weeks when we go up

20
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 1: to the Greenbrier in July and beginning of August. And

21
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 1: we won't know obviously what days yet, but the preseason

22
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: schedule is out and you are always You're always my

23
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: favorite guest when it comes to the preseason, because I'm

24
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: mister pres you are, you are mister the title. You

25
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 1: are a mister August. I've given that to players before.

26
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 1: By the way, some guys are just lighting up in

27
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 1: the preseason. Give me your best one, Well, this I

28
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 1: got We'll give Okay, here's one of a couple of

29
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 1: good ones. And you know one of them has a

30
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 1: contract with the Broncos right now, Case Keenum I thought

31
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 1: it was a pretty good mister August. Remember the preseason

32
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 1: game he won against the Cowboys in twenty thirteen in

33
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: Week four, We're like, it's week four, keenam starting? What'sever?

34
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: You know what's gonna become of Case Keenum An it's

35
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: a long shot. Look at him now, right And you know,

36
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 1: I don't know what's gonna happen with Tom Savage's career,

37
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 1: but I'll always remember the savage last second drive against

38
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,559
Speaker 1: Denver in twenty fourteen. You know when he hit Ryan

39
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 1: Griffin for the go ahead touchdown, and who did he

40
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: hit this lapart Travis lap Heart with the two point conversion.

41
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: I mean, look, in the context of preseason, there have

42
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 1: been some fun times trend in holiday. It's funny because

43
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: Landry Locker when I visit with the Morning Guys on

44
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 1: six ten, he runs an obscure highlight from me at

45
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,640
Speaker 1: least once per appearance, like it could be an extra

46
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 1: point that doesn't mean anything like from the opponent he played.

47
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 1: He played a Phil Savage extra point. Recently, he played

48
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 1: though a trended holiday touchdown from the preseason at one

49
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: of my recent visits. And to me, when you look

50
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: at Jacoby Jones and oh seven of the preseason, yeah,

51
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: they were actually printing Jacoby Jones jerseys to sell at

52
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:40,839
Speaker 1: the Go Texan store now known as the Texans Team

53
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: Shop at the time, because hey, Jacoby Jones looked like

54
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: he was gonna be a big star, and he did

55
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 1: become one, but not here unfortunately, but he did some

56
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: things here. Anyway, in the preseason, you do get some

57
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: interesting things happening. Less Star Jean, Less Star Jean's another

58
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: one that's a mister August right there. That's a good one.

59
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 1: Willie Jefferson, Willie Jefferson a good that's like mister practice

60
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 1: in AFU. Yeah, I mean it was Willie Jefferson, Russian

61
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,239
Speaker 1: the pastor. That was twenty thirteen as well, Man twenty

62
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 1: thirteen was a busy offseason. In that same twenty thirteen

63
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 1: game four sierr Wood, sierr Wood against the Cowboys, that

64
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 1: was the Kingdom game. Looked so good in that game.

65
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,639
Speaker 1: I think did he run for a Hundy? I think

66
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,639
Speaker 1: he did. I think he did. That was that that

67
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 1: game spawned some well Spawnsorme career, seemingly. But and then

68
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,239
Speaker 1: you have the Kansas City three in week seven, sierr

69
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: Wood among them, guys who longer with the team after

70
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: that road trip. Ju and I were talking about that earlier.

71
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: Today we're just talking about that that trip to Kansas

72
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: City in twenty thirteen and talking about all that was

73
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: going on. I'd forgotten that Wade Phillips's dad, Bomb had

74
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: passed away earlier that week. In that game, Brian Cushing

75
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: gets hurt again. You had the Kansas City three, Gary

76
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 1: and got hurt in that game game. I had forgotten

77
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: just how awful that particular trip was on so many

78
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 1: different Oh, it was so so bad. Now we we

79
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 1: bring all that up because the preseason schedule is out,

80
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: we do not know what days these games when we

81
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: played on a lot of people have asked us it

82
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: could be a Friday or Saturday, whatever. Couldn't be a Thursday.

83
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 1: Last year we played on a Wednesday. Yeah, but that's

84
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 1: not gonna happen again. It won't happen again. The reason

85
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 1: it happened last year at Charlotte was because the PGA

86
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: tournament PGA Championship was going on and they didn't feel

87
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 1: like they could have security at the football game the

88
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: same weekend. They could play that the golf tournament. So

89
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 1: either way, that's a major American city, boys and girls

90
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,359
Speaker 1: that could never mind. Just yeah, I'm gonna leave that

91
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 1: one there because my brother and my brother and sister

92
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: in law live there and they love it and it's

93
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: it's great and Charlotte is a great town. But they

94
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: played on Wednesday. Why that matters what day is because

95
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 1: the Texans can start training camp two weeks from that,

96
00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 1: right from that particular start. So if they play the

97
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 1: first game August, I don't know, say it's a Saturday,

98
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 1: Argus eleventh, they can start two weeks prior to So,

99
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: so let's assume it's a Saturday. Let's assume that it's

100
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 1: a Saturday. That would have the Texans starting somewhere twenty seven,

101
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: twenty eighth of July and then the first game at

102
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 1: Kansas City at Arrowhead Stadium. Yeah, that's gonna be good.

103
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: Look I like this, Mahomes and Deshaun Watson, right, two

104
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 1: teams that were very aggressive in the draft last year

105
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 1: to move up and take these two guys two picks apart,

106
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: number ten for Mahomes, twelve for Watson. And look, I

107
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,360
Speaker 1: don't want to oversell it here. Each of these guys

108
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,720
Speaker 1: bound to play a quarter or maybe less than that.

109
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 1: But it's kind of a fun thing to see Mahomes

110
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,160
Speaker 1: and Watson square off in week one of the preseason.

111
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 1: Plus Arrowhead Stadium. You know, you have all these new facilities,

112
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 1: and they're incredible palaces. I mean, we were in Minnesota

113
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 1: last year. You see some of these places. But this

114
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,479
Speaker 1: is one of the old gems, the Grand Dams, if

115
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: you will, that remains in the NFL. When you look

116
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: at Arrowhead Stadium in the history there, and it was

117
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 1: built in the early seventies and they built it really well.

118
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,160
Speaker 1: They built it so they could retrofit it and keep

119
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 1: it going, and they did recently do that a few

120
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: years ago, and it's good to go for the next

121
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,360
Speaker 1: I don't know, fifteen twenty years and then I'll have

122
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,720
Speaker 1: to figure it out from there. But I like this place.

123
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: I mean, it's such a bowl It reminds me of

124
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,600
Speaker 1: Lambeau in that way, such a bowl type setting. Very loud,

125
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 1: as y'all know. They brag about how loud they are.

126
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: Who knows who's the loudest stadium, Maybe Minnesota, Seattle or

127
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: this or maybe n RG during a playoff environment. Who knows.

128
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: But to me, it's one of the more exciting places

129
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 1: to go in the league. So the building itself kind

130
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 1: of makes it special. There's a lot to sell about

131
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 1: this game, Andy Reid. This offense is going to look

132
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 1: different with Mahomes than it did with Smith, and it'll

133
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: be a good first test for the Texans. You would

134
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: think it is the only permanent AFC stadium. I have

135
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 1: not been to permanent because the Chargers and the other one,

136
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 1: and that's not a permanent stadium. That's wherever they are,

137
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,720
Speaker 1: StubHub Center or whatever it might be. So Kansas City

138
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 1: is really the only permanent stadium I've not been. That's right,

139
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: you weren't with us in twenty thirteen. Nope, So I've

140
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 1: not been there. I've been to Airhead parking lot because

141
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: I've gone to a Royals game, I've been in the

142
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 1: parking lot, but I have not been to a game

143
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 1: at Kansas City. Very excited about that, no matter what

144
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: its preseason or not. The Hunts, the city, the area,

145
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 1: they had great vision in building that facility, and with

146
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 1: Kaufman Stadium formerly known as Kaufman Stadium. I don't know

147
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: what it is now. I don't know. It's something. It's

148
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 1: out there. It's a beautiful the Road stadium. It's gorgeous,

149
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 1: it's fantast and it's outside the city. So yeah, I mean,

150
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: if you like downtown parks, this is not your thing.

151
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: But the tailgating is excellent. It's not as good as

152
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 1: the Texans, but I mean barbecue in Kansas City is

153
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 1: pretty good. Second game. Don't get me started on Kansas

154
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 1: City versus second game. Jimmy Garoppolo and the forty nine

155
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: ers come back to NRG Stadium take on the Texans

156
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: in week two the preseason. All right. I wrote about

157
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: this on Houston Texans Dot com revenge is a dish

158
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 1: best served cold or whatever, and preseason is not the

159
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 1: time for revenge. If revenge is a dish, this is

160
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 1: an ord DRV and I'll take a little order of

161
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 1: revenge please. I want to make life rough for Jimmy

162
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: that day. I think it's a good test for the

163
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 1: defense week too. They're gonna play a little bit longer,

164
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 1: maybe a quarter and a half or however many snaps

165
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 1: that adds up to. I'd like seeing Jimmy because look,

166
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 1: he looked great last year. He's not lost a start yet,

167
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: and you want to be able to have a look

168
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 1: of your defense against whatever he's gonna cook up with

169
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan. And yeah, people do get a little more

170
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: of vanilla, a lot more of vanilla in the preseason.

171
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 1: But if there's any offense that doesn't really vanilla, it

172
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 1: out too much in the preseason, maybe in a play

173
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: calling sense, but not so much in a scheme sense.

174
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 1: It's that Kubiak Shanahan offense, and they're gonna run the bootlegs,

175
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 1: they're gonna do the stuff they do, so it's good

176
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: practice against them. Yeah, there's no question Texans will not

177
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,679
Speaker 1: play the forty nine ers during the season. They did

178
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: that last year. But seeing Jimmy Garoppolo in preseason last year,

179
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: saw him in the regular season, yeah, in six to seventeen,

180
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: and now seeing him in the I'll tell you what,

181
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 1: if we played jim Garoppolo again in twenty eighteen, that's

182
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 1: a good thing. That means you're in the super Bowl.

183
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: So at Kansas City Week one home against San Francisco.

184
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 1: Week two, Week three at the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams. Now,

185
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: remember what I said about Arrowhead Stadium. In the building,

186
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 1: this is another great building. It's funny and I sat year.

187
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: Great in the sense of history. It's not a great facility.

188
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: It's a terrible facility. I thought about this the other day.

189
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 1: How did you get to the booth? There are no elevators. Right,

190
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 1: we went on to the field. I'd right, and I

191
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:32,559
Speaker 1: walked out of the field, as we often do when

192
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,199
Speaker 1: we got off the bus. We go to the field,

193
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 1: and sometimes we just don't have time. It was a

194
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 1: long ride and we got to get right up to

195
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: do the radio hit or whatever. But we like to

196
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,679
Speaker 1: go on the field, especially him, you know, former quarterback,

197
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 1: likes to go on the field. So we're on the

198
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 1: field there and we're looking up and there's no deck there.

199
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,559
Speaker 1: It's one level. You know, it's like the Rose Bowl

200
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 1: or one of those traditional bowl stadiums. You walk right

201
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 1: up to the press box if you can do it.

202
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,559
Speaker 1: So I thought, let's do it. We said, let's go.

203
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 1: So we started walking and we kept just up the

204
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 1: stairs and we kept walking up and up and up,

205
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 1: and we finally got to the press box. And yeah,

206
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 1: it was definitely a little bit of a you know,

207
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: mid morning workout, as it turned out, but I thought

208
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 1: it was great to do it that way. Now what

209
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 1: you see is, you know, you're among the fans. They're

210
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: not there yet when we get there, but you're seeing

211
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,719
Speaker 1: these seats and they're all rusted out. The Coliseum is

212
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: a joke. I mean, it's it's a great old building

213
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 1: in terms of the history and the events that have

214
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: been played there. And you're talking about Olympics at eighty

215
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 1: four and the Raiders and the Rams of Old and

216
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 1: all of the other stuff everything that's going on there.

217
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 1: I mean Super Bowls, I mean, come, all of the

218
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 1: USC crazy stuff. But the seats are rusting out, you know,

219
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,199
Speaker 1: they're not the building is on its last legs. You know,

220
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 1: but they still have all the stuff in the end

221
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: zone and the monuments and all that, so it's a

222
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 1: cool place to go. I think, Johnny, that week three

223
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: preseason game at the Rams, you can see a lot

224
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 1: of traveling Texans go because travel. You know, it's funny

225
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: the Texans fans, they love to travel. They love to

226
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 1: make it a big event no matter what it is.

227
00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 1: They loved going to Dallas week four the preseason in

228
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: when they were playing up there for a number of years,

229
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 1: and you know, we'll do that again, I'm sure. But

230
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 1: for LA. I mean, you go to La, so you

231
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 1: spend some time there, you see your team play. It's

232
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: week three, so the starters are likely to play the most.

233
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 1: Maybe you see a lot of Deshaun Watson. I mean,

234
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 1: this is gonna be fun stuff. I think this is

235
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 1: as far as preseason games go, this is a great

236
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 1: opportunity to see the Texas Joint practices would absolutely absolutely

237
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: be something that I want to see a lot of sense. Actually,

238
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 1: yes it does, because you're you're there. I'm sure. Look,

239
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,839
Speaker 1: this is not an original thought. You know, Bill O'Brien's

240
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: probably thinking the same thing. Because if you can swing

241
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 1: it with them, you go out there. The weather's better

242
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 1: than it is here that time of year, no doubt

243
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 1: about it. So you do a couple of practices, maybe

244
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 1: one even would be beneficial, and then you play the

245
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 1: game on Saturday night. How many practice? Now, we saw

246
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 1: one practice with the Saints last year, but they did

247
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:04,200
Speaker 1: a second practice they did they knock one in. And

248
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: then Week four, yeah, at home, which it was supposed

249
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 1: to be last year, but then it got moved because

250
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: of Hurricane Harvey and the Dallas Cowboys. Well, to me,

251
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: there are a couple of different ways to look at this.

252
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 1: First of all, it doesn't matter if it's a parking lot.

253
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,199
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter if it's second stringers, It doesn't matter

254
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,079
Speaker 1: if it's ticketing staff versus ticketing staff. I don't care

255
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:31,439
Speaker 1: who it is. I love seeing this organization play that organization.

256
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: I don't care what the context is. Now. Remember it's

257
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 1: week four, so people are thinking, oh darn it, it's

258
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 1: week four. You're not going to see Dak You're not

259
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 1: gonna see Deshaun. But look at it this way. The

260
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:45,199
Speaker 1: last time the Cowboys were scheduled to play a preseason

261
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,599
Speaker 1: game here was last year. The time before, well, not

262
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: the time before that. But the last time they were

263
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 1: playing in the regular season here and a preseason game

264
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: here was two thousan ten. They played both, and the

265
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: Texans won the preseason game against a Wade Phillips coached

266
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,559
Speaker 1: Cowboys team and won that game soundly, as I recalled,

267
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 1: I don't have to score in front of me. Then

268
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 1: it was time to play them in the regular season

269
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 1: and the Texans got their brains beat in by the Cowboys.

270
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,680
Speaker 1: So I don't mind the starters not participating in this

271
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: particular one. In fact, I'd rather harken back to two

272
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:17,199
Speaker 1: thousand and two when the Texans scrimmaged the Cowboys at

273
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 1: then Robertson Stadium on the campus of the university accusition

274
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 1: and look terrible doing it. But then a few weeks

275
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: later they play them in the opener here and they

276
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 1: beat them. So I'd rather have something like that occur.

277
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 1: Play them week four. You play the second string, third

278
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:31,680
Speaker 1: straight whoever is not going to make the team, and

279
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: some guys who are fighting for their careers, and some

280
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:35,839
Speaker 1: guys certainly will make the team. We just went over

281
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 1: the game four scenarios from time to time, and then

282
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 1: play them whenever it does occur in the regular season.

283
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 1: We're gonna find that out next week when the schedule

284
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: comes out. There it is. The preseason schedule is in

285
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: the books locking in everybody. Don't know the dates yet,

286
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: don't know the times. We'll get those two you when

287
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 1: they are made public. Texans do not have a nationally

288
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 1: televised game, but they do have these four games. Week

289
00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 1: one at Kansas City, Week two home against San Francisco,

290
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 1: Week three at the LA Rams, Week four the Dallas Cowboys.

291
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,120
Speaker 1: Now they will play the Dallas Cowboys during the regular season.

292
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:12,319
Speaker 1: They will also face another dozen teams during the year,

293
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 1: thirteen teams in total. Do those teams scare you offensively

294
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 1: on paper? Now, obviously they'll have a draft and there'll

295
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 1: be some rookies that impact those teams, But do those

296
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: teams scare you offensively? Marks gonna stick around. We'll talk

297
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 1: about that next right here in Texans, Alexis, the preseason

298
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 1: schedule is out. We only get excited about that because, well,

299
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 1: you know, the NFL allows us to see these things

300
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 1: every so often. The regular season schedule will come out

301
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: next week. If you missed it. Texans go to Kansas

302
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 1: City for Week one. They're home Againstan Francisco in Week two.

303
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 1: They're at LA in Week three, their home against the

304
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 1: Cowboys in the ever important Week four. For at least

305
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 1: a few players, it will be ever important, There's no

306
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: question about that. Now. The regular season schedule will be

307
00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 1: out sometime next week. We don't know for sure when,

308
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 1: but we do know it's gonna be out sometime next week.

309
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 1: I'm John Harris alongside the voice of the Texans, Mark Vander.

310
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: Right now, I bring up that regular season schedule. Mark,

311
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 1: Texans play thirteen teams in twenty eighteen. They play their

312
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 1: three division teams, they cross over with the AFC East,

313
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 1: they cross over with the NFC East in East East,

314
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 1: and then they play Cleveland and Denver based on fourth

315
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: place schedule. Right now, I got to thinking about this

316
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 1: when you look at that roster of thirteen teams, and

317
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 1: I've looked at this over the past few years, and

318
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 1: I remember looking at the schedule in twenty sixteen, and

319
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 1: I remember thinking as I looked at the schedule, Wow,

320
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 1: there's a stretch of car Rivers, Rogers, Luck in four

321
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 1: weeks of all my gosh, last year faced Brady Russell, Wilson,

322
00:15:54,560 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger, Alex Smith, Jared Gough, Rob how tough was

323
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 1: going to be faced? Six? I mean stud quarterbacks that

324
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 1: I'm sure if you did a rant, you'd probably put

325
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 1: those six in the top twelve. As you look at

326
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 1: on paper, as you look at this group of teams

327
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 1: of Texans face, I know Brady's still there, I know

328
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 1: Wents in Philadelphia. But when I look at the offense

329
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 1: is that this defense will face, it feels like, I

330
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 1: don't want to say a discount, but it feels like

331
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 1: there's a little bit of a break. It's not like

332
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 1: it was in past year. I know where you're going. Yeah,

333
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 1: it just doesn't it's not a daunting group of offenses

334
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 1: that they're going to face those thirteen teams. And I think,

335
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 1: you know, we always talk about this as being complimentary too.

336
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,920
Speaker 1: What's your offense doing to make life easier? Is your

337
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 1: offense running the football? Is your offense dominating or at

338
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 1: least taking the majority of the time in time of possession?

339
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 1: That really helps your defense. Obviously we go over that

340
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 1: all the time. But when I look at Cleveland, they're

341
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 1: not scaring me right now, Johnny. When I look at Denver,

342
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: not scaring me right now? You know, and look, with

343
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: all due respect to case Keenam and whoever they trot

344
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: out there, whoever they're gonna draft early, it's just not

345
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 1: looking like that kind of offense to me. And again,

346
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 1: you know, when you when you replace Gary Kubiak with

347
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 1: Mike McCoy and then you have to replace him again,

348
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 1: it just it feels like it's gonna take a while.

349
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 1: It feels like they're spinning and wheels in some sense.

350
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 1: And the Jets, you know, Josh McCown and Bridgewater, who else, Hackenburg,

351
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:30,439
Speaker 1: no, no no way, you know, Miami with gaze. It feels

352
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 1: like it could happen at any moment where they start

353
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,679
Speaker 1: really getting it going, but they haven't yet, you know.

354
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 1: And I still think that with Gaye, it's gonna be

355
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,159
Speaker 1: interesting to watch him. A lot of people have a

356
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 1: great deal of respect for him. But you're a coordinator,

357
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,919
Speaker 1: really good coordinator, becoming a head coach. How do you

358
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 1: handle your side of the football while being trying to

359
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:51,200
Speaker 1: be a really good head coach? He did make the

360
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,640
Speaker 1: playoffs that first year. There's a lot to consider here

361
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,800
Speaker 1: with them, but it's not a frightening thing, you know.

362
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 1: It's not like we're facing this machine with Roethlisberger and

363
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,159
Speaker 1: all the receivers and Levy on Bell healthy and everything

364
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:05,120
Speaker 1: like that. So Buffalo, no, not right now, A J. McCarry.

365
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,119
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna get scared of Buffalo right now. And

366
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 1: New England is New England, by the way, getting back

367
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: to the preseason topic, I'm glad they don't play the

368
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 1: Patriots this year, you know, I believe me, I'd take it.

369
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:15,919
Speaker 1: We'd enjoy seeing them and all of that, but I

370
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: kind of like it. Let's let's leave some mystery out there.

371
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 1: Let's leave some mystery. Because you were the one who

372
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:25,640
Speaker 1: pointed out the play that they made that the Texans

373
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 1: made against them with Andrey how pick it off. Brady

374
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 1: and the Patriots saw it, and they adjusted to it

375
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 1: in the regular season matchup and they got a big

376
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 1: play generated from that. They look at everything, like Bill

377
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 1: O'Brien knows. So I don't want to see them. I

378
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 1: don't want to practice with them. I don't want to

379
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 1: see it. Although we might practice with them, who knows.

380
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 1: I don't want to. I don't want to rule that out.

381
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 1: But that's practice. Yeah, practice a little different. I'd be

382
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 1: a little bit different. As you started going through I

383
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: start thinking about this. We faced Cleveland last year, but Cleveland,

384
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:55,159
Speaker 1: no matter who's starting in Cleveland, it's gonna be a

385
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 1: guy that wasn't there last year. Denver, it's gonna be

386
00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 1: case Keenham. He certainly wasn't in Denver last year. Ryan

387
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,640
Speaker 1: Tanneyhill was not healthy last year for Miami. He wasn't

388
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 1: even in the mix. As mccaren gonna start in Buffalo.

389
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,160
Speaker 1: But mccaren more than likely is gonna start. I would

390
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,719
Speaker 1: think it's not Tyrode. So they're gonna start a new

391
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 1: quarterback the But here's where it gets, dicey. Are you

392
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:17,719
Speaker 1: ready for the diceness? Okay, the NFC East, Dicey, because

393
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 1: Dak and Ezekiel Ella, you know, let's see how they

394
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 1: rebound from a down year. You know, are they healthy

395
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 1: and presumably not suspended. But Dallas, you know they could

396
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 1: bring it. They could bring when they're healthy. They gotta

397
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,880
Speaker 1: the old line. Everybody's back, they're fresh. Who knows when

398
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,120
Speaker 1: you're playing unhealthy? That's the I think outside of New England,

399
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: New England, Philly, I think Dallas, if to your point,

400
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 1: if those guys are all healthy, right in, all on

401
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,160
Speaker 1: track to do what they're I think that's the next

402
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: dangerous office. No matter what happens with Des or not,

403
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 1: I do think they gotta they've got to add a

404
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 1: receiver to that mix. But I think Dallas is the

405
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 1: next one on that group. But you're right, Dak, and

406
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:58,360
Speaker 1: then Philly, I mean, Philly's returning seemingly everybody offensively with

407
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 1: Wentz Wentz with And then you got Washington and Alex

408
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 1: Smith had a field day against this defense last year.

409
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 1: A field day. Yeah, a lot of that was with

410
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 1: merciless and wat out of the game, but he had

411
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 1: a field day and was playing tremendous ball. But he

412
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,919
Speaker 1: is starting a new in Washington as opposed to be

413
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 1: in Kansas City. He doesn't have quite the weapons he

414
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:23,400
Speaker 1: added Kansas City. But that first part of the list,

415
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: you're right, NFC East, I think is the most daunting

416
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,880
Speaker 1: part of that side. Though Watton Whitney don't get hurt

417
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 1: in that game at all. Texans win that game, I mean,

418
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,120
Speaker 1: I think so. I think so because they were kind

419
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:38,159
Speaker 1: of holding it together without them the first drive. They

420
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 1: both need the field and you hold them to a

421
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,360
Speaker 1: field goal that was not gonna touchdown drives and it didn't,

422
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 1: you know, it was kind of a little bit of

423
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 1: a snowball, and then you cut it to twenty six

424
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,359
Speaker 1: twenty with this Watson rally. I think if Watton Whitney

425
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 1: stay healthy, they were gonna game plan well against Alex Smith.

426
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 1: They beat him here the year before, you know, the

427
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 1: water under the bridge, whatever, but I think it was

428
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 1: going to be a really hotly contested affair. It was anyway,

429
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 1: I think one of the things they would have done

430
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 1: when they made adjustments was to keep Alex Smith from

431
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,120
Speaker 1: getting underneath the rush and then back out. I think

432
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 1: that would have been a major adjustment because that's the

433
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 1: one thing he did early on before JJ got hurt.

434
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: JJ would get a field and then Smith would tuck

435
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 1: underneath him. And so I think they would have made adjustments,

436
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 1: be its scheme or just you know, players adjusting JJ

437
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 1: and Whitney adjusting their rush. But when those two went out,

438
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 1: and you think about how much and I remember early

439
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,840
Speaker 1: in that game, I remember seeing Whitney make a tackle

440
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:33,119
Speaker 1: on a play where wow, why is he tackle on

441
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 1: that guy? And it was it was really early in

442
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 1: the game, and what had happened was they sort of

443
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 1: switch responsibilities off the zone read and I remember seeing

444
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 1: whit make the tackle on I just remember writing down

445
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 1: in my notebook they've game planned a certain way against

446
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,120
Speaker 1: that scheme that includes Whitney, and so when Whitney went down,

447
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 1: I remember writing down, man, this is going to blow

448
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 1: up the game plan. Of course, then JJ goes out,

449
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:58,360
Speaker 1: and now you're just trying to survive, right, because with

450
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 1: one of them gone, you feel like maybe you can

451
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 1: adjust a little bit. I can two of them gone

452
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,679
Speaker 1: then like, oh my gosh, you know you're just putting it.

453
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,960
Speaker 1: You're drawing it in the dirt, almost as the expression goes, Okay,

454
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,919
Speaker 1: So you mentioned Philly the Giants with Eli. Look, I

455
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 1: don't know, is I mean we've seen in twenty fourteen

456
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 1: at home get hot against this team, and I know

457
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:19,120
Speaker 1: it was a very different thing. He didn't have O'Dell

458
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 1: Beckham junior that there. Yeah, And it's not even about

459
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 1: like this team. It's just Eli gets hot from time

460
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,560
Speaker 1: to time. Or sometimes he's a weird quarterback. Guys won

461
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 1: two Super Bowls. Sometimes I watch him and I'm thinking,

462
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 1: where's that ball supposed to be going? Like it's terrible looking,

463
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 1: But then other times bit bit bit laser like efficiency.

464
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:37,360
Speaker 1: So who knows what you're gonna get out of them.

465
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:39,639
Speaker 1: They come here, which is a nice thing, yes, but

466
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:41,679
Speaker 1: you're gonna go to Philly in Washington, all right. The

467
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 1: other thing is this you're mentioning offenses here that could

468
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: scare you. I think the Titans, with everything going right,

469
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:51,120
Speaker 1: you know, that's the little disclaimer here, could be really frightening.

470
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I really mean that. You know, Mariota, he's

471
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:55,639
Speaker 1: got to get better. Everybody says that, but he could.

472
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,719
Speaker 1: I mean, don't discount that possibility. I don't know if

473
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 1: Matt Lafleur is a gene yes or not. He wasn't

474
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 1: calling plays for the Rams, but he's been around. You know,

475
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,360
Speaker 1: he's seen that Kubiak Shanahan thing because he was here,

476
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: he was in Atlanta. He's been with Kyle. Now he's

477
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,679
Speaker 1: with McVeigh. He's learned whatever he well, he was with

478
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 1: mcveigh's learned whatever he's learned. Now he's the OC in Tennessee.

479
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 1: I don't know what he's gonna bring. I mean, this

480
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 1: is a real X factor, hard to predict. And with Jacksonville,

481
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: it's about the bloodgeting. Yeah, you just that was the

482
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,199
Speaker 1: one thing in that opening game that I thought about

483
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: and I thought this about halfway through and I realized

484
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 1: how Jacksonville was gonna play. Jacksonville essentially was gonna dare you.

485
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 1: No matter who they're playing, they were gonna dare you

486
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 1: come up and hit us every single play because we

487
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,440
Speaker 1: think we are bigger, faster, and more physical than you.

488
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 1: Or whether they are or not, they felt like they

489
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 1: were and it didn't matter. They were just gonna keep

490
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,359
Speaker 1: chipping away at the rock and pounding away. And I

491
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 1: remember that drive right before half. I want to say

492
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 1: it was ten nothing, and it was. They got down

493
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: inside the five and they bogged down and it was

494
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 1: fourth and one. I remember thinking, man, if they can

495
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 1: stop him and kind of flip the momentum, boy could

496
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 1: be very interesting. But then Fournette just pounded it in.

497
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 1: And I remember seeing on that play he hit I

498
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,920
Speaker 1: think it was Cushing, maybe McKinney, and you can see

499
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,639
Speaker 1: them give way because the amount of hits, and that

500
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 1: really is what it is. When you face them, you

501
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 1: just know you got to bring everything you've gotten, your pads,

502
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 1: and that's tough. I mean, that's tough for guys mentally

503
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,679
Speaker 1: to go, Okay, we gotta do this again. And so

504
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 1: that's why your offense has to be that much more important.

505
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 1: Because if you get a fourteen nothing lead somehow, where

506
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:29,880
Speaker 1: you get a ten nothing lead now a sudden, they're

507
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:31,880
Speaker 1: throwing a little bit playing in your hands, you let

508
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:35,400
Speaker 1: them play their game, that offense becomes dangerous for that reason. Yeah,

509
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 1: so the scariness of some of these offenses isn't so

510
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 1: much in scheme. And this guy is a surgeon or

511
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 1: whatever it's. You know, physically, you gotta hang with these guys,

512
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 1: got to stay healthy. You gotta be healthy going in.

513
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 1: You got a game plan well, and you gotta hang

514
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 1: with them physically, and can you do it? And I

515
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:51,640
Speaker 1: think you, look, we don't know exactly what they're gonna

516
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 1: look like. Based on what they've been able to put together,

517
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: looks pretty interesting, you know, with total health, when you

518
00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: think of all the kitchen sink stuff you can throw

519
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 1: a quarterback and you know, hopefully slow down the run,

520
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: if not stop it, you can really make some headway here.

521
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 1: But it's a good point you bring up. You don't

522
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 1: have this murderers row of quarterbacks necessarily, but you do

523
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 1: have some offenses that can hurt you. The league is

524
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 1: so even you know, we always talk about it, but

525
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:16,920
Speaker 1: that's one of the things that makes it beautiful. Yeah,

526
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,200
Speaker 1: no question, Mark appreciate it. Thank you, Johnny. The regular

527
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 1: season schedule that will be out next week, I don't

528
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,680
Speaker 1: know whether there's Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. Everybody's staying on their

529
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 1: toes for the announcement of the regular season when you're

530
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 1: in the preseason at Kansas City, San Francisco, at home

531
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 1: at La the Rams, and then against the Dallas Cowboys

532
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 1: in Week four. So when a regular season schedule comes out,

533
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 1: we'll break it down next week. I've said from the

534
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks, my guest is Wednesday. They announced

535
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 1: the preseason schedule on Wednesday, but then again Thursday primetime television.

536
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,239
Speaker 1: That that gets kind of exciting, I suppose. So from

537
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 1: that standpoint, I would think I would think it's gonna

538
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 1: be Wednesday or Thursday next week. Usually it's not Tuesday,

539
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 1: but it's about a day's notice. They say, hey, the

540
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,119
Speaker 1: schedule is coming tomorrow, and then everybody gets geared up

541
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 1: and now we all know it's coming it this week

542
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 1: because it's definitely not coming the draft week because that's

543
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 1: gonna be solely for the draft. So preseason schedule announced today,

544
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 1: and then you have got the regular season next week. Now,

545
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,360
Speaker 1: I mentioned earlier that the Texans do not have any

546
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:31,639
Speaker 1: primetime a national television preseason games, which I don't know

547
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:34,680
Speaker 1: that's a good thing or a bad thing, but maybe

548
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 1: it's a good thing because that means they're saving them

549
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 1: all for the regular season. But you've got the Hall

550
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,679
Speaker 1: of Fame game, which is going to be the Bears

551
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 1: and the Ravens. That's your Hall of Fame game. Bears

552
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 1: Ravens or Lockers going in. Ray Lewis is going in

553
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. So Bears Ravens Week two of

554
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 1: the preseason your regular season. I'm sorry You're primetime games

555
00:26:56,520 --> 00:27:10,719
Speaker 1: are Jets, Redskins, Ravens, Colts, Week three, Eagles, Browns, Lions, Buccaneers, Saints, Chargers, Bengals, Bills, Cardinals, Cowboys.

556
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 1: So that's one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight

557
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 1: eight preseason nationally televised games. Texans do not have any

558
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 1: of those in the preseason, so hopefully they'll make up

559
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 1: for it in the regular season. Because names I also

560
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:33,680
Speaker 1: don't see their Patriots, I don't see Texans. I'm thinking

561
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,639
Speaker 1: of teams that have got green Bay Packers are not

562
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 1: on there, so yes, the Eagles are, But that's really

563
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:42,879
Speaker 1: about the teams. Because the teams I'm thinking are getting

564
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 1: these primetime games Dallas. Now Dallas gets one in Week three,

565
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 1: Cardinals v. Dallas. Have no idea who playing quarterback for

566
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,119
Speaker 1: Arizona at that particular moment, but the Cardinals take on

567
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 1: a Cowboys. So no no preseason nationally televised games. But

568
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,600
Speaker 1: obviously with the regular season is out next week, we'll

569
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 1: know days and times for the Texans primetime games. I've

570
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 1: set a long four. I would have even push the five.

571
00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 1: I just think that when you're talking about the league

572
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,199
Speaker 1: where it is right now and where it would like

573
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 1: to go. The days of Brady Manning Roethlisberger are nearing

574
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 1: an end. Obviously Manning for sure. We don't know how

575
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,359
Speaker 1: long for Ben. Obviously don't know how long for Tom Brady,

576
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:30,639
Speaker 1: but it can't be too long. The Dak Prescott's, the

577
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:35,439
Speaker 1: Carson wentz Is, the Deshaun Watson's. Those players have to

578
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: start becoming the fabric. They've got to be the face

579
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 1: of the NFL, the faces of the NFL. Aaron Rodgers

580
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 1: still playing, but he's obviously in his thirties, So you're

581
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 1: talking about that run moving on and now these younger quarterbacks,

582
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 1: and that's why having a group of them in the

583
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 1: draft is I would think gonna help down the road.

584
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 1: But matching up Carson Wentz and DeShawn Watson on a

585
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 1: Sunday night, that seems to make a lot of sense

586
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 1: to me, Dak Prescott and Deshaun Watson, Tom Brady and

587
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson because that was obviously such a contest last

588
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 1: year in Foxboro. So to me, that's where the Texans

589
00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:14,960
Speaker 1: are going to pick up some of this. They're not

590
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 1: getting into the preseason, no nationally televised preseason games for

591
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,840
Speaker 1: the Texans, but those regular season games, I think they're

592
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 1: gonna get plenty of them. Now, those thirteen opponents, we

593
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 1: talked a little bit about that market I did on

594
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 1: paper Drew and I for our Wednesday Night draft are

595
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 1: gonna put together two teams of skill players from those

596
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 1: thirteen opponents. It's our Wednesday Night drafts. Stick around. It's

597
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:42,120
Speaker 1: next on Texans Access. Love the alliteration on a what's

598
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 1: up Wednesday? Welcome in everybody or welcome back, I should

599
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 1: say welcome Wednesday. Wonderful. I like the literation. I'm John

600
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 1: Harris alongside Drew Dorry. What's up, Drew. It's a lot

601
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 1: of alliteration for an anxious anchor. That's very good. It's

602
00:29:55,720 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 1: from anchormant. It's not the one was William Hurt and

603
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 1: Jack Nicholson and oh yeah, okay, I got rubber Brooks. Yeah,

604
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 1: long time ago, long time wait ahead of its time though.

605
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 1: But anyways, what do you think of the preseason schedule?

606
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 1: I like it. Man, We're going to law I love

607
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 1: going to Los Angeles. I like that. I believe, how

608
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: many times have you been there? Only been there once

609
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 1: last year? Twice? I went last year when the Texans

610
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,479
Speaker 1: played the Rams, and then I went uh in twenty thirteen.

611
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: I went out to NFL Network Studios and NFL dot

612
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,880
Speaker 1: Com and did some work. So it was fun. I'm

613
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 1: looking forward that I've not been to Kansas City Stadium.

614
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 1: I've not been the Arrowhead. I've been to the Arrowhead

615
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 1: parking lot because I've gone to a Royals game before,

616
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,960
Speaker 1: long time ago. So cal Ripkin there, Hey long had

617
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,719
Speaker 1: his poster on my wall long time ago. Got his

618
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 1: rookie card in a safe deposit buck somewhere in Houston

619
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 1: right now. One of my favorite stories a buddy of mine,

620
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 1: Storm Davis. Yeah, Storm I coached with. I was his

621
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 1: He was the head coach at the Bowls School where

622
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 1: Hayden Hurst tight end for South Carolina. He played at

623
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,320
Speaker 1: the Bowls school. Storm was is he step brothers or

624
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 1: brothers with the big bob step And so Storm was

625
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 1: the head coach and I was his JV coach. Sweet

626
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 1: and so I got into a Storm, and so Storm

627
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 1: told me one of the best stories I'd ever heard.

628
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: He said they were the Orioles's back. Storm got back

629
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 1: with the Orioles. And Storm would always struggled with the Indians,

630
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,160
Speaker 1: always struggled with him. And so he was slated to

631
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:23,080
Speaker 1: start against the Indians, and Cal Ripken caught him over

632
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,840
Speaker 1: and said, come here, pulled out a notebook and went

633
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 1: through every single one of the Indians hitters with him,

634
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 1: every single one, and then proceeded to call the game

635
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 1: from shortstop. He would signal the catcher the catcher within

636
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 1: single Storm. Storm never shook him off because he knew

637
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: was coming from Cal. He ended up throwing like a

638
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: four hit shutout or something like that. But that actually

639
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:45,880
Speaker 1: he wasn't the only one apparently he did that for

640
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 1: and that's I think it rubbed some people the wrong

641
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 1: way that Cal was calling games. Yea, yeah, but that's

642
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 1: pretty amazing. That's pretty amazing to know the hitters as

643
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:57,760
Speaker 1: well as he was. He was one of the Well,

644
00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 1: with it being Wednesday, that means it's time for our

645
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 1: Wednesday and Night draft. Now, you and I did a

646
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 1: draft for In the Lab. You haven't gotten the End

647
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 1: the Lab podcast. Go check it out Itune, Stitcher, leave

648
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 1: us a review. It's fantastic. We did a draft for that.

649
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 1: That was you might think it's off the wall. It

650
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 1: is off. What's the whole point of in the Lab?

651
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 1: That's what we do. We go off the lab. We

652
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:21,240
Speaker 1: we mix magnesium and boron. See what happens. Yeah, mgbo,

653
00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 1: nig bo or bomb. I don't know, depending on how

654
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 1: you want to put together Krypton and m Selenium or

655
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 1: Xenion and Iron, I don't know what if we want

656
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 1: put together birds, yeah, very much so. So we like

657
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 1: to use the Wednesday Night draft to Yeah, we go

658
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 1: off the page right now and again. But since we

659
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 1: did that with the In the Lab podcast, you're figured,

660
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:41,480
Speaker 1: you know what, let's kind of get back on track,

661
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 1: and with the preseason schedule coming out today, they got

662
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 1: me thinking about future opponents for the Texans, and the

663
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 1: regular season schedules should be out next week. Don't know

664
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 1: whether what it's going to be, but it's coming. It's coming.

665
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:56,160
Speaker 1: My on record is saying, I think it's Wednesday would

666
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 1: be fun, so we can talk about all that. We

667
00:32:57,880 --> 00:32:59,840
Speaker 1: can't talk about it on Wednesday because they'll unveiled at

668
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: even o'clock, but we'll know it. We'll know it, and

669
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 1: we won't talk about it. We'll have to keep it

670
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 1: under wraps. We can talk about on Thursday. That said,

671
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 1: I got me thinking about the opponents. The Texans have

672
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 1: thirteen opponents this year. They face at home, they face

673
00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns, the Miami Dolphins, the Buffalo Bills, the

674
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:26,120
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys, the New York Giants, the Tennessee Titans, Indianapolis Colts,

675
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 1: and the Jacksonville Jaguars. Those are all at home. On

676
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 1: the road, they face the Denver Broncos, the New England Patriots,

677
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 1: the New York Jets, the Phildelphia Eagles, the Tennessee Titans,

678
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:40,600
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts, jackson Jaguars, and the Washington reds Kids. So

679
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 1: thirteen teams, the Texans will face three of those they

680
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 1: face twice, as they have since two thousand and two Titans, Colts, Jacks.

681
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 1: I thought about, why not let's put together the ultimate

682
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 1: fantasy lineup for the opponents the Texans are gonna face,

683
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 1: so and keyword they're being fantasy right because it exclude

684
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 1: we're throwing out off of right for now, I'm gonna

685
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:03,800
Speaker 1: throw them out. And I started thinking about the offensive

686
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 1: lineman they face a few, a couple of good left.

687
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,040
Speaker 1: Tyrn Smith is the one that jumps out to me, Yeah,

688
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:10,399
Speaker 1: Tyron Smith. Trent Williams from the Washington Redskins. I asked

689
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,799
Speaker 1: that question the other day. Jason Kelsey from Philadelphia. Want

690
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,239
Speaker 1: the best centers in the league. So they'll face I

691
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 1: think some decent offensive linement, and they're gonna face some

692
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,239
Speaker 1: really good skill players. So we figured we would do

693
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:29,400
Speaker 1: our Wednesday night draft drafting the best Texans opponents offense.

694
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 1: And in that, you get a quarterback, you get a

695
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,359
Speaker 1: running back, you get two receivers, You get a tight

696
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,319
Speaker 1: end and then a flex right, you could choose a

697
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 1: tight end. Right, youach a running back. Each is a receiver, right,

698
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 1: now I mentioned word fantasy, not really going on fantasy points,

699
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 1: but just what's the best skill lineup of the players.

700
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,920
Speaker 1: And Texans are gonna face yep, that you could come

701
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:53,000
Speaker 1: up with, so Drew since you are I don't say

702
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,200
Speaker 1: a guest. You never really guess you're at home, but

703
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:56,920
Speaker 1: I want to be courteous to you. I'm gonna let

704
00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,800
Speaker 1: you go first. First. Well, then I want Tom Brady. Okay, quarterback,

705
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 1: all right, you can have him. You can have him.

706
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 1: That's pretty simple. It's probably mean. I don't need to

707
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,399
Speaker 1: say much. I mean, I just I want to start

708
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 1: with a quarterback and then you can only draft one.

709
00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 1: So I won't draft a quarterback until the very end. Cool,

710
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,759
Speaker 1: all right, So I'm good with that. Ye uh yeah.

711
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:18,160
Speaker 1: Facing Brady again is kind of depressing, but it is

712
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:21,320
Speaker 1: what it is. I mean, he's beatable. He is definitely beatable.

713
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 1: The Texans almost did it, the Eagles did it. He's beatable.

714
00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:29,359
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean it's easy, but he is beat he will bleed.

715
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:34,319
Speaker 1: We think it's never blood against the tech. I took

716
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:40,040
Speaker 1: quarterback Tom Brady off the board. Who are you taking? Okay, Um, well,

717
00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:42,239
Speaker 1: I'm gonna right to and I we're gonna snake this, right,

718
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:45,920
Speaker 1: so I get two fine, Yeah, okay, we'll snake this.

719
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take two guys that actually are rumored to

720
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:53,720
Speaker 1: maybe not even be playing with their protect their respective teams.

721
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,480
Speaker 1: But I think they're the most dynamic at their position

722
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,520
Speaker 1: in the league. So I'm gonna go at tight end.

723
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:01,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Gronk because I also think when you

724
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 1: look at the tight ends of Texas are facing, it

725
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 1: is not a it's not a All American top five list.

726
00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:13,319
Speaker 1: So I'm taking Gronk, and then at wide receiver, I'm

727
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:18,319
Speaker 1: gonna take Odell dang it, Beckham Junior. See, that's why

728
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:20,280
Speaker 1: I feel good about the quarterbacks. They're still on the board.

729
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,920
Speaker 1: I don't know how how I don't know how I

730
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:25,840
Speaker 1: feel about the tight ends on the rest on the

731
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:27,440
Speaker 1: rest of the board. We'll go into all this at

732
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 1: the end, but I'm taking Gronck and Obj. You now

733
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,719
Speaker 1: take two picks Drew Leonard Fournette because I trust him

734
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 1: more than the other running back that I think you're

735
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 1: gonna take. Okay, just trust him more, Okay, And I

736
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:45,200
Speaker 1: guess I'll go with Josh Gordon every So I've got

737
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 1: Brady Fournette Josh Gordon. Okay, so wait a second. You

738
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,440
Speaker 1: said you were gonna go at Fournette because you trusted

739
00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,440
Speaker 1: him more, but didn't You're gonna go clean everything up?

740
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:01,279
Speaker 1: All right? I think he's he's about to bust loose.

741
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 1: I had Gordon down as the guy I was gonna

742
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:06,400
Speaker 1: take two, so I'm right there with you. Uh okay,

743
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 1: So it snakes back to me. So now I have two,

744
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:12,360
Speaker 1: so I have my two running. Wait sorry, well he

745
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 1: could take two running be a flex. So all right,

746
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:19,879
Speaker 1: so that's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna put I'm

747
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,359
Speaker 1: gonna put Ezekiel Elliott as my running back. And it's

748
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 1: funny I did not have Ezekie Elliott. It's named written

749
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,359
Speaker 1: down for some stupid reason until you said, I don't

750
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,080
Speaker 1: know if you're gonna be able to trust this guy,

751
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:30,959
Speaker 1: and I'm oh Elliott because I don't. I don't trust

752
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:33,200
Speaker 1: this guy a long term. But anyway, I know somebody

753
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 1: I do trust and I hate facing him. Take Shady

754
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:41,080
Speaker 1: McCoy as my flex, so I now have it running back,

755
00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott, wide receiver, OBJ whatever back from Junior. My

756
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:48,839
Speaker 1: tight end is Grock. My flex is Leshawn McCoy. I

757
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 1: need a quarterback and a wide receiver. With my last

758
00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:55,879
Speaker 1: two picks, you have you are now I I'm picking.

759
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 1: I'm finishing up. I just need a wide receiver. You

760
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:03,040
Speaker 1: need a wide receiver and end A well, I need

761
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,719
Speaker 1: two more. Note, I need a flex to wait. Yeah,

762
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:07,960
Speaker 1: wait a second, what of the receiver did you get?

763
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,959
Speaker 1: I took Gordon. I've taken Brady for Nett and Gordon,

764
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:13,759
Speaker 1: so I need to take um another receiver, a tight

765
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,480
Speaker 1: end and flex. Okay, yeah, you have three left. Okay,

766
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:24,040
Speaker 1: I guess I'll guess. I'll go with I know you

767
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 1: should take a tight end. He plays in Philadelphia. Let's

768
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:28,439
Speaker 1: just I know that I know, but I can save

769
00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:30,880
Speaker 1: him for later. You can because I won't take a

770
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:34,240
Speaker 1: p you can't take a tight end, and you've already

771
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:36,040
Speaker 1: used your flex, so you can save zach Ertz for

772
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 1: the end if you'd like. I guess i'll go with

773
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:43,960
Speaker 1: um t Y Hilton beat you deep, okay, and then

774
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:48,279
Speaker 1: flex because he's good slot guy. Oh man, but I

775
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 1: don't know if it was. I guess I'll go with

776
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:54,640
Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry. Oh, that's a good one. Yeah, that was

777
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:56,880
Speaker 1: the second name. I had written down all right to you.

778
00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:58,440
Speaker 1: With your last pick, I have to take a tight

779
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:00,080
Speaker 1: end and I know, yeah, you know, and you know

780
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,439
Speaker 1: who that's gonna be. That's that's more than likely gonna

781
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:06,240
Speaker 1: be David and Joeku Cleveland Browns. I have two picks.

782
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 1: I have a wide receiver huh and quarterback and I'll

783
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:15,840
Speaker 1: say quarterback for the end wider. This is this is

784
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 1: why doing this exercise to me was really really interesting,

785
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 1: because as you start looking at these names, you're like, well,

786
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 1: those names are pretty you know, those are some pretty

787
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,239
Speaker 1: impressive names. But but if you look you don't statistics.

788
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 1: If you look at the stats from last year, some

789
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 1: of these guys don't pop up. Gordon don't pop up.

790
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 1: Oh do Beckham Dune pop up? Because they didn't you know,

791
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,479
Speaker 1: Leonard for Nette is not like one of the rushing leaders.

792
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,799
Speaker 1: But anyways, rather have him. Yeah, I agree with you.

793
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:42,800
Speaker 1: I think I do think it's gonna be tough facing

794
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,000
Speaker 1: these guys. But when I started making my quarterback list,

795
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:50,760
Speaker 1: I went I went Brady Carson wentz. And then I went, Okay,

796
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:54,239
Speaker 1: well who next? And then I started looking at and

797
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 1: I was like, alexmisk next, one block would be on

798
00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:58,880
Speaker 1: the list. I guess, but yeah, no, I don't know.

799
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:01,360
Speaker 1: But do you know if he's gonna be healthy? My

800
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:04,719
Speaker 1: point in all that is, okay, this defense has an

801
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 1: opportunity to get back on the back on the bump

802
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 1: here if you will let me. Let's let's finish and

803
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:11,640
Speaker 1: then we could talk about it. Wide receiver. So you

804
00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:15,800
Speaker 1: took t Y Hilton, You're taking Landry YouTube Jack Gordon.

805
00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:20,239
Speaker 1: I have Odell Beckham junior, So I am going to

806
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 1: take you know what, let's go, wide receiver, Alshon Jeffrey. Yeah,

807
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,759
Speaker 1: that's who I was, Landry or Jeffrey. So, and then

808
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:30,359
Speaker 1: I'll take Carson Wentz and so I am. I am

809
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:34,239
Speaker 1: done my team. Carson Wentz quarterback, running back Ezekiel Elliott,

810
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:37,640
Speaker 1: wide receiver, Odell Beckham Junior, wide receiver Alshon Jeffrey, tight

811
00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:43,280
Speaker 1: end Gronk. My flex is Shady McCoy Drew. I'm assuming

812
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,279
Speaker 1: you're taking zach Ertz. Yep, zach Ertz will be my

813
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:48,719
Speaker 1: tight end. So that means I have Tom Brady quarterback

814
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:52,839
Speaker 1: Leonard for Nette behind him running the rock my receiver corps.

815
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:54,920
Speaker 1: I like, I use my flex on receiver, so I

816
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 1: have Josh Gordon kind of an all around guy. T

817
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,239
Speaker 1: Y Hilton can get deep into some things. Ye got

818
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 1: Landry and good slack guy and then tight end his ertz.

819
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:09,239
Speaker 1: When you think about these skilled players, I think, and

820
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:12,279
Speaker 1: we've done similar exercises in the past as we sort

821
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:14,760
Speaker 1: of look at the opponents for the Texans, I feel

822
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:18,640
Speaker 1: like that list has been much more daunting in the

823
00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 1: past when we've done this, certainly at the quarterback position. Yes,

824
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 1: and you're talking are you talking about skill though, Yeah,

825
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:26,840
Speaker 1: I'm just talking across the more, but you're right quarterback

826
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:29,359
Speaker 1: in particular really last year too. I mean that just

827
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:32,960
Speaker 1: leaps out at me in introspect. Now, how good the

828
00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:37,280
Speaker 1: quarterbacks the Texans face last year? Ben Roethlisberger, Russell Wilson,

829
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:41,840
Speaker 1: Tom Brady a golf Garoppolo I think deserves you know,

830
00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:43,879
Speaker 1: the way he played well. If you were to rank

831
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:46,960
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks and you said one through thirty two starting

832
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:51,520
Speaker 1: quarterbacks throughout the league, with those four guys we just mentioned,

833
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 1: you're probably talking top top twelve going into this year,

834
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people would think Garoppolo is

835
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,040
Speaker 1: is in that mix. But now, on paper, here's who

836
00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 1: you would face at quarterback for the rest for this

837
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:09,440
Speaker 1: crew Cleveland, Tyrod, Taylor, Denver, Case, Keenum, Brady obviously, Ryan Tannehill, Miami,

838
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:16,400
Speaker 1: Josh McCown, Jets, AJ mccaren, Buffalo, Dak Prescott, Eli Manning,

839
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz, Mariota, Luck, Bortles, and Alex Smith. It's not

840
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,320
Speaker 1: it's not a triple a schedule of quarterbacks, but it

841
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 1: certainly isn't like the one you faced last year or

842
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 1: the year before when you faced in succession, you faced Car,

843
00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,360
Speaker 1: then you faced Rivers, then you faced Rogers, then you

844
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:37,720
Speaker 1: faced Luck. Yeah, and that was just those four weeks.

845
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:39,840
Speaker 1: Not to mention, well, you were supposed to face Brady,

846
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 1: but you faced Jacobe Brissette early on, so and you

847
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:45,439
Speaker 1: faced Alex Smith along the way, and you faced Ox

848
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:49,360
Speaker 1: Smith last year too. So I feel like quarterback wonderfully

849
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:53,319
Speaker 1: against you last year, quarterback wise, Brady Wentz. Those are

850
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:54,920
Speaker 1: the first two, but then after that you probably looked

851
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:57,840
Speaker 1: AFC South and say Luck, Mariota, I said Smith. I

852
00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:00,880
Speaker 1: would have gone Smoutch's a third, but yeah, luckily he

853
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,399
Speaker 1: didn't have to. But yeah, I think you can make

854
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:08,440
Speaker 1: that argument about luck, if luck, if Luck is fully healthy,

855
00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:10,280
Speaker 1: well it's luck all the way I take him above

856
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,279
Speaker 1: Alex Smith. Would you have taken Luck in front of

857
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz and Luck is fully healthy? No, I wouldn't either.

858
00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 1: I would take Carson Wentz and I would put Luck

859
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:22,640
Speaker 1: because I think Flint MVP calorie yea Luck if Luck

860
00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:24,839
Speaker 1: could get back to I mean twenty fourteen Andrew Luck

861
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:28,000
Speaker 1: was sure, he was absolutely ridiculous. But I think that

862
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,239
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz showed if he's fully and that's the key.

863
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 1: If he's fully healthy, well it's either gonna be Winter

864
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:34,920
Speaker 1: Nick Foles and I mean you're gonna I mean, he

865
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,480
Speaker 1: knows that offense as well as anybody Fules is not

866
00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:39,880
Speaker 1: Chop Liver. Yeah, there's no question about that. Drew. Appreciate
