1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:02,960 Speaker 1: Well, it certainly is a lot more summer than it's 2 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:07,680 Speaker 1: been here at Energy Stadium. After yesterday's twenty four to 3 00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:10,719 Speaker 1: twenty one lost to the Indianapolis Colts. Welcome in to 4 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 1: this Monday edition of Texans All Access. We will take 5 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:18,280 Speaker 1: you right up to Monday night football, the Minnesota Vikings 6 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:21,319 Speaker 1: travel to Seattle to take on the Seattle Seahawks, one 7 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: of the hottest teams in the league. Thank you for 8 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,040 Speaker 1: being with me. I am your host, John Harris. We've 9 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:29,040 Speaker 1: got plenty four you're gonna from Andrea Ware, from Spencer Tillman, 10 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 1: and we're gonna spend this first segment with our hot reads, 11 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 1: presented you by Geico. Fifteen minutes can save you fifteen 12 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:39,880 Speaker 1: percent or more on car insurance. And I've had a 13 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,200 Speaker 1: chance to kind of flat my gums all day. You've 14 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,279 Speaker 1: heard from me, and when I thought about this one 15 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: tough tough loss, tough loss in that it's a division 16 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:52,840 Speaker 1: opponent in your building. The Colts suffered through it back 17 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 1: in week four, we're suffering through it in Week fourteen. 18 00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 1: I don't know if one's any better than the other, 19 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: but there they won. Here. Colts have a good football team. 20 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,559 Speaker 1: The Texans have a good football team. It was two 21 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,960 Speaker 1: very good football teams meeting yesterday, and in the end, 22 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 1: Colts made a few more plays. They made a few 23 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: more plays in a cluster from seven minutes and nineteen 24 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: seconds left in the second quarter. And I know you're wondering, Well, 25 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: wait a second, that's pretty specific. Yeah, because the Texans 26 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 1: had held them scoreless up to that point, and really, 27 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: other than one drive that preceded that that ended an interception, 28 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: the culture really hadn't done much. But then with seven 29 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: nineteen on the clock, that's when Andrew Luck and t 30 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: Y Hilton struck. And then they struck again, and you 31 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: know the rest. So there you go. Now I've talked 32 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: all about this. I feel like you gotta move on 33 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: and get to the New York Jets. Take a listen 34 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: to what the guys had to say yesterday. Let's start 35 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: with JJ while he talked about Andrew Luck and said, 36 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:59,559 Speaker 1: the guy's a great player many obviously a very strong 37 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: game today, gets the ball out of his hands quick 38 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: in a lot of situations. I can move around when 39 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: he has to, and there's a lot of good receivers. 40 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: I mean, he spread the ball out and did a 41 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 1: great job today. Have to give him a lot of credit. Yeah, 42 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 1: you do. He's done a really, really good job. There's 43 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: no question about that. They they the Colts played pretty well. 44 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 1: JJ said, but you gotta look at the mirror, man, 45 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: there's some things that we didn't do. They played good football. 46 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: I mean t Y obviously had a huge day and 47 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: we knew going in that's a guy we have to 48 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: stop and we didn't. And that's everybody. That's us upfront 49 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 1: putting pressure on making them getting difficult situations. It's the 50 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: back end, it's it's everybody. So um, like you said, 51 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: Luck did a good job spending around and guys got 52 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: open and he found him. I mean, it's we just 53 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: have to play better. I mean that we can sit 54 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:50,799 Speaker 1: here and say whatever we want, we have to play better. 55 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,959 Speaker 1: Lux had two. I will say he had he's had one. 56 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: If you put four quarters together, he's had four quarters 57 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: of excellent full ball against the Texans, and he's had 58 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: four quarters of the football against the Texans, and at 59 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: least the Texans were able to get one win out 60 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: of that. But his mid second through mid third quarter 61 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:20,079 Speaker 1: play is as good as we've seen, and his fourth 62 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: quarter play for mid third quarter through the fourth quarter 63 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: over time up in Indianapolis is as good as we've seen, 64 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 1: better than Brady, better than Alive, better than anybody he's been. 65 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 1: He's been unbelievable. There's there's no doubt. But as I 66 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: said going in, you lose one, you gotta bounce back. 67 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: No more streaks other than winning streaks. At this point, 68 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 1: this one game losing streak has got to be a 69 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: one game losing streak. And JJ said, yeah, losing stinks, 70 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: but we gotta bounce back. Every loss is extremely painful. 71 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: I mean, any loss in my entire life has been painful, 72 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: and this one is the exact same. I mean, it sucks. 73 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 1: It's very painful. Um, but ye know, there's nothing you 74 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,839 Speaker 1: can do that. Now we have to get back to work, 75 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: get ourselves ready obviously for Saturday. Quick turnaround, and in 76 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: a situation like this, it's a good thing sometimes for 77 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 1: you a chance to get back out there on the 78 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: field a day early and get back to work. Been 79 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: a while since we've been on a short week travel 80 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: schedule to be Cincinnati all the way last year and 81 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: in that Cincinnati game, Deshaun Watson started for the first 82 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 1: time and he has been everything and then something for 83 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 1: this organization. But the Colts got some pressure on him 84 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: yesterday and Sean said, it's all about execution. The Colts 85 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 1: executed pretty well their game plan against us. They play hard, 86 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 1: did what the game plan was for themselves, and I 87 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: mean they just no capitalizing opportunities than we did. Yeah, 88 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: they played well. The Colts defense was very, very good. 89 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 1: Now coach O Briant talked about it today and he 90 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: talked about after the game yesterday. He said first down 91 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: offense was just not good and that puts you behind 92 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 1: the sticks all day. And Sean said that was a 93 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: big factor for the offense, really bogging down in the 94 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,559 Speaker 1: first half, in particular second along. It's tough in this league, 95 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 1: and Dad, we try to get half of it back, 96 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: and you know, third down is a position where you 97 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 1: want to be third and short and try to give 98 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: you a chance opportunity to keep the change moving. But 99 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: we didn't have too many of those opportunities, and they 100 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 1: did a good job of doing it. They did. Colts 101 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: did excellent job there. Sean was asked, how do you 102 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: think you played? John said, overall was the average miss 103 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 1: two deep shots, miss d team, miss hawt kind of 104 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 1: rushed it on the d balls. But outside of that, 105 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 1: you know, well, sit there and watch the film. We 106 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 1: you know, create things on the sideline and uh, you 107 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 1: know everyone offense could have played better. But I mean, 108 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: games like that happen, and so get learning lesson for 109 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: us to you know, to watch the film and credit. 110 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: There's a part of me that thinks, and I kind 111 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: of hope I'm wrong. I don't. I don't know. Some 112 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: people like playing Division opponents in the playoffs. I mean, 113 00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: I want my playing Division opponent names the championship game. 114 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 1: I just have a feeling that we're gonna see those 115 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 1: guys again. I just I just have a feeling, and 116 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: it would be back in this building if everything holds 117 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 1: true over the next few weeks and the Texas can 118 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: take care of business. Now, the Colts have a you 119 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: know a few weeks ago with a thought. Man, they've 120 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 1: got Dallas, then the Giants and then the Titans. They're 121 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 1: gonna win those three, go three and oh oh man, 122 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. Cowboys are playing pretty well. But Nick 123 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 1: Martin out for a little bit, potentially, I'm sorry, Nick Martin. 124 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 1: Nick mart plays for us. Zack Martin his brother. He's 125 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: dealing with a little bit of an injury. But Cowboys 126 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: are playing really good football and the Giants are not 127 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 1: far behind them, playing good football, and they gotta go 128 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: to Nashville to knock off the Titans. That has not 129 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 1: been easy for teams to do this year. Jackson found 130 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: it out, We found it out, Patriots found it out, 131 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,359 Speaker 1: the Eagles found it out. Teams have played very that 132 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: team has played very, very well in Nashville. So I 133 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: just I still have a feeling that we're gonna see 134 00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: them again, and in seeing them again, hopefully offense will 135 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: be able to capitalize on what they saw from the 136 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: Cults defense. And Deshaan said, it's not that sophisticated. How 137 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 1: today it was pretty much two of the coverages play 138 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: you know, covered two Tampa. They brought the Star twenty 139 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: three and played you know cc SIS match which is 140 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: just basically man's own, and they played some bus coverage. 141 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 1: The safety came down in between the Star and the 142 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: linebacker and probably you know, set them the out routes 143 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: or they played sloop. I mean, that was pretty much it. 144 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: Sometimes on third down they brought pressure and they played 145 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: three D two under and um, you know they got 146 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: to it, so, I mean they did a good job of, 147 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 1: you know, trying to sit on everything and um, you know, 148 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: playing their keys. And I love when DeShawn gets or 149 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: any player for that matter, gets into the football ease 150 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: if you will, I love it. I love hearing you 151 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: talk about it, because he basically is saying, I know 152 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: what you guys are in, I know what you're doing, 153 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: and I'll get you and I'll give you this quick story. 154 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: In fact, it's about a guy that's in the news 155 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: today a little bit, and that's John Gruden. John Gruden 156 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: an America's game in two thousand and two, they had 157 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,239 Speaker 1: gotten They told a story about how they had gotten 158 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:14,119 Speaker 1: beat at Philadelphia in the year. John Gruden had coached 159 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: at Philadelphia or coached in Philadelphia for the Eagles for 160 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: a while, and then he became the head coach of 161 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: the Raiders and then went on to be the head 162 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: coach of Tampa Bay Buccaneers. On his first year with 163 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, they go back up to play Philadelphia and 164 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: Philadelphia beats them. But on the bus ride home, Gruden 165 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,679 Speaker 1: turned to Sap and he goes, I got him, and 166 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,439 Speaker 1: STAPs like, what do you mean you got him? And 167 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: Gruden's like, I got him. I know what they're in. 168 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 1: If we play them again, will beat them. I know, 169 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: will beat them. I know what they're doing and I 170 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: know how to beat it. And they did. They played 171 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 1: him in an MFAC championship game in Philadelphia in two 172 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: thousand and two and Gruden beat him. He was absolutely 173 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: dead on. He knew what they were doing and he 174 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,959 Speaker 1: got him. It was basically Sean saying that right there, 175 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,599 Speaker 1: we see him again. We got him. At least I 176 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: kind of hope that's what he's saying. To be honest 177 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: with you now, DaShan is a very confident guy. He's 178 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 1: not gonna tell you that, but just the way he 179 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: carries himself to where he holds himself. He said, even 180 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: though we lost, we're still pretty confident we can get 181 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: things done. It's the NFL. I mean, every game is tough. 182 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: I mean, you're not It's tough to go on two 183 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: game win streets. You know, we went on nine and 184 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 1: and um, you know today and it ended. You know, 185 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,319 Speaker 1: it's a new task, you know, put this game behind us. 186 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: Next week with zero zero, try to get one in 187 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 1: those and just move on from it. So, um, you know, 188 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: snow penning button for us, and you just kinda you know, 189 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: watch the film, correct that, get ready for the New 190 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 1: York Jets, and and keep moving. We got three more 191 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: opportunities this regular season, Jets, Philly and Jacksonville. So um, 192 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 1: try to flip the script next week and get back 193 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: on a winning call. Him Sean's right, gotta flip the script, 194 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 1: and you gotta get rolling. You gotta get rolling. DeAndre 195 00:09:55,720 --> 00:10:00,079 Speaker 1: Hopkins talk to the media after the game, obviously, and 196 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 1: he reiterated the same thing. We got games to play. 197 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,839 Speaker 1: We gotta move past this one. So we've got a 198 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: couple of games left. Still got some you know teams. Uh, 199 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,559 Speaker 1: you know that gonna give us a tough fight, but 200 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: we gotta keep battling. I can't let this affect us. 201 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: I don't think it will. We got too many leaders 202 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: than here to do that. That's true, they do. He 203 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: did say, you know, it's hard to win in the NFL. 204 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 1: They went nine in a row. Now they gotta get 205 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: back and do that. Next week, we played another football 206 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: another NFL team. Man, you know they did some things, 207 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 1: uh you know all you know they won today, So 208 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,079 Speaker 1: I can't win them, mom, It's right, can't win them all. 209 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 1: You gotta get going, and you gotta be able to 210 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: regroup any loss, because it's a close as. We gotta regroup, 211 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:54,959 Speaker 1: you know, we got the team are what we want 212 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: to get it, so we gotta come out of practice, 213 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 1: you know, prefet Now the other side of this is 214 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:07,559 Speaker 1: well some excitement, and that would be Andrew Luck. One 215 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 1: of the things that he mentioned was the Colts knew 216 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: full well, point blank t Y Hilton's speed was a 217 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: major advantage for them. Throughout the week, we noticed some 218 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: things where we thought we could take advantage of of 219 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 1: Ty speed and his maneuverability. I mean, Ti does some 220 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 1: things very very special, right, he does some things that 221 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 1: now many other people can do. Um and so we 222 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 1: saw we saw I think, some opportunities and to film 223 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: that we thought we could take we could take advantage of. Um. Well, 224 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: once we got that first one, I was like, okay, 225 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 1: it's sort off. Yeah, here we go. Let's let's get it. 226 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,959 Speaker 1: And then in his own he was in his zone. Man, 227 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: and uh, it was fun to play with them. It's 228 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,679 Speaker 1: an honor to play with them. And I sincerely mean that, Yeah, 229 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: I don't think that, to be honest with you. Andrew 230 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: By the way Andrew was talking from like a cave. 231 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: I mean, he was like all our current ran I 232 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: was like, you're talking a cave. My goodness, where was 233 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: that microphone on him? Geez? Yeah, they were good. They 234 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: were really good. I said it before. I think it's 235 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: the best I've seen Andrew Luck. I mean all the 236 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: years of yeah, Andrew Luck's gonna be a great quarterback, 237 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: and he's shown it. I remember twenty fourteen. Twenty fourteen 238 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: was probably the best I can remember seeing him. But 239 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen, these two games, I mean, in that stretch 240 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,839 Speaker 1: of time that I'm talking about, from mid second quarter 241 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 1: through mid third quarter of this game and mid third 242 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: quarter through fourth quarter over time the game up in Indianapolis. 243 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 1: You put that together in one game. It's maybe the 244 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: best game I've ever seen. I mean, he was just 245 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: he was unbelievable. And like I said, I think the 246 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: Texans will see this team again. I just have I 247 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 1: have a hunch now. To be able to do that, 248 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: the Texans have got to take care of business. They've 249 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: got to take care of business, and they've got to 250 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 1: play better. There's no question they've got to take take 251 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 1: care of business going forward against the New York Jets, 252 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: and you heard n Sean talk about it the Eagles 253 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,559 Speaker 1: after that in the Jacksonville Jaguars. Now there are scenarios 254 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 1: and all that kind of stuff, and the Texans playoff 255 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: percentage of making the playoffs is still very, very high. 256 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: I think it's still like ninety eight point seven. Yesterday 257 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,440 Speaker 1: really didn't move them up or down, and I think 258 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: that's maybe the frustrating part is that had they taken 259 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: care of business, they would have moved into the number 260 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: two spot. But really, yeah, that would have given them 261 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: a game edge on the New England Patriots and would 262 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: have felt better about it. It It would have put the 263 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 1: Colts to bed. But they went in with a multi 264 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 1: game lead in the AFC South. They left the game 265 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: multi game lead in the AFC South. They went into 266 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 1: the game number three seed in the AFC. They left 267 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 1: as the number three seed in the AFC. So not 268 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: to change it, just shortened to three games and you 269 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: move on. And now you gotta take on a Jets 270 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: team that will be Pasquino, play hard and be tough, 271 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: and the defense will be good and Sam Done will 272 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 1: make some plays. But you gotta move on and you 273 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 1: gotta get it done, and we are definitely going to 274 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 1: do that to right.

You know, I'm 308 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 1: ready for a break, let's go. I don't think this 309 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 1: team is that way. In fact, I can guarantee you 310 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: this team is not that, not that, not this way. 311 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 1: They are definitely not that way. They are going to 312 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: get things together for the New York Jets and looking 313 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 1: forward to playing that Saturday game up in New Jersey 314 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: minus the rain. Sounds like the rain's gonna hit up there. 315 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 1: I'd rather it snow. If it wants the snow, it's 316 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 1: fine snow. We don't get all that off in rain. 317 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: We get all the time. I just don't like rain 318 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 1: at games six weeks outside, well actually five because the 319 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: culture inside. But first six of them made it out 320 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: all right. It looks like this one we're gonna get wet. 321 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 1: At least I'm gonna get wet. Mark and Audrey will 322 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: be up in a boot. Speaking of Andrea, it's time 323 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: to catch up with a good buddy. Andre where right 324 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 1: here in Texas Acas Dre So your thoughts overall on 325 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 1: the situation. A day later, we are, you know, we 326 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: just we always felt like this was a dangerous team. 327 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 1: I think it was, you know, something out of nowhere 328 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: when you're watching the Colts and kind of paying attention 329 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: to their run, and then last week they can't get 330 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: on the board against Jacksonville, who you know, played an 331 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 1: inspired game, was just willing to play the spoiler role 332 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 1: and they were able to do it against the Colts. 333 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: They realized that their backs are against the wall. The 334 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 1: season was in the balance, and they came out and 335 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 1: they played like it yesterday, Trey overall, thoughts of what 336 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: you saw from Andrew Luck I told Mark earlier, I 337 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 1: think it's the best I've seen Luck play. I mean, 338 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 1: you've seen every game, all the Colts Texans over the years. 339 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: What you think of the way that he played, in 340 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 1: the way he is playing. I was impressed. I watched him. 341 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: I was down close to the field. I watched him 342 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: warm up. There's nothing wrong with him physically whatsoever. I 343 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 1: think he's If he's not a hundred percent, he is 344 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,199 Speaker 1: very very close to it. The ball's jumping out of 345 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 1: his hand again, he's extremely accurate, and then you see 346 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 1: the mobility that goes along with a guy of six four, 347 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 1: two hundred and forty pounds pulling away from defenders that 348 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 1: have angles on him and so on and so forth. 349 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 1: So yeah, I was very impressed. I was impressed with 350 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: how he moved the ball around. We knew that at 351 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 1: some point he would get to t Y Hilton, but 352 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 1: it was like late here in the first half when 353 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: he started to go to him. He had Ryan Grant 354 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 1: on a couple of passes. Pascal and use the tight 355 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: ends very well, the backside of the back hill and Hines. 356 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 1: You know, he's got a full grasp on what Frank 357 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 1: Reich wants to do offensively, and he's starting to play 358 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 1: that way. Yeah, I think you just brought up the 359 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: name that concerns me as much as any as far 360 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 1: as the future between these two franchises, Frank Reich offensive 361 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:22,160 Speaker 1: coach and Andrew Luck great quarterback. That could be a problem. Drey, 362 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: Let's talk about the Shan Watson. What do you think 363 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: is the next stage, the next thing for him to 364 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,439 Speaker 1: work on as he continues to improve in his second 365 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:34,919 Speaker 1: year in the NFL. Well, I think it's just, you know, 366 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: everybody around him playing consistently as well. When you have 367 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,919 Speaker 1: a take it, take the top off a defense type 368 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 1: player like Will Fuller, well, then everybody else has got 369 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:51,440 Speaker 1: to kind of step their game up when and that's 370 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,199 Speaker 1: no shout at anybody, but that's that's kind of the 371 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: next there. Knowing what's around you and how to use 372 00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: it as well. He needs helping the running game, and 373 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: when he has it and the offensive line is moving 374 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 1: bodies off the line of scrimmage and creating holes, then 375 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: it gives him the necessary time to see the field 376 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 1: and do his thing. We missed Zach Fulton yesterday, there 377 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 1: is no doubt about that, because the chemistry upfront just 378 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: didn't seem to be there, both in run blocking and 379 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 1: in past protection. A lot of times, you know, he'd 380 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: get to the top of his drop and having to 381 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: dodge a defender. Now, that takes your eyes away from 382 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 1: being down the field. And he wasn't just his accurate 383 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: self yesterday. So I don't think there's anything wrong with 384 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 1: how he played. It's just the surrounding parts. You're only 385 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 1: as good as what's around you at that point, at 386 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:47,680 Speaker 1: that position. Dre Couchell broughts it afterwards about the defense. 387 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:52,120 Speaker 1: The Russian coverage didn't always work well together. Warrior Roll 388 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 1: thoughts about the way that the secondary, well, just the 389 00:19:56,200 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: whole defense played yesterday, especially against Luck throwing football. Becau 390 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,399 Speaker 1: didn't run it for much. I don't know if the 391 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,400 Speaker 1: numbers and numbers were not good. They shot off the run, 392 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: I mean, they didn't run for anything. But every time 393 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: Andrew Luck went back to pass, my heart skipped a beat. 394 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 1: What do you think about the way the Russian coverage 395 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: played together? And what do you think it has to 396 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: do better this week against darnaldon the Jets. Well, I 397 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 1: think it was a great game plan by Frank Raik offensively, 398 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 1: because early in the game he kind of set the 399 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: table for what he was going to do later. They 400 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: tried to run the football early, and there were times 401 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 1: even on their first couple of possessions, where they had 402 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 1: it at the forty five and then they had another 403 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: possession that started at the forty one and he was 404 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 1: committed to the run. And so when that happens, you're 405 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 1: going to slow down the pass rush for later in 406 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 1: the game because all you got to do is show it, 407 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 1: and you now have to respect the run. That gives 408 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 1: Andrew Luck the necessary angles and time to survey the 409 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: field and get it out. Then they went from that 410 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,119 Speaker 1: kind of that type of vision to opening the field 411 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: up and going no huddle, and now you're really getting 412 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 1: what you want and you have a defensive pass rush 413 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: that is worn down a little bit from having to 414 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,880 Speaker 1: defend the run, from having to try to fight off blocks. 415 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,439 Speaker 1: Now he's got the time he needs to find t 416 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,640 Speaker 1: t Y Hilton down the field, who had another big 417 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 1: day against the Texas. The only thing that didn't happen 418 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,200 Speaker 1: with him not getting in the end zone. But nine 419 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: catches for one ninety nine is not a shabby day whatsoever, Drey. 420 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: If the Texans have to play wild Card weekend at home, 421 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: and that's the likeliest scenario here, and I hate to 422 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: even say that because you haven't clinched anything yet, but 423 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,160 Speaker 1: which team would you want to see? Which team would 424 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: you not want to see? Out of the Ravens, the Cults, 425 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,360 Speaker 1: the Titans. Johnny should have thrown the Steelers here, Yeah, 426 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,400 Speaker 1: because I think this when division or died. Yeah, probably right. 427 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 1: And the Dolphins, what do you think of that those 428 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: potential matchups? I think what I would want was it 429 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,679 Speaker 1: would be the Dolphins because you had him once. You 430 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 1: know what they're all about. I made it too easy 431 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 1: for you. Yeah you did on that answers that that 432 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 1: was that was a slam dunk. You you threw me 433 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,239 Speaker 1: at alley oop and I still I still had some 434 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 1: hops to go get it and flush it. But uh no, 435 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,679 Speaker 1: that that would be the team, because I don't the 436 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:20,119 Speaker 1: Cults are getting hot. Who knows if they get healthy 437 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 1: enough where the offensive lines even better than what they 438 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,880 Speaker 1: had this go around or the second go around with 439 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 1: with the Texans. Um, I don't I don't necessarily want 440 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: to see them uh in the playoffs, and I don't 441 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:36,439 Speaker 1: think anybody else really watch the scene, the way they 442 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: play the run defensively, they've they've they've come together at 443 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: at the right time, so to seek Okay, let me 444 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,639 Speaker 1: make this work difficult for you, Trey. What about the 445 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:51,199 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts or the Baltimore Ravens with a healthy Lamar Jackson? 446 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:56,199 Speaker 1: Which one did you not want to see? I just 447 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: made it tougher on him. I just dared it down 448 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,120 Speaker 1: to two teams. I know that much tougher to face. 449 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: That's tough. I would probably say the Ravens to maybe 450 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,919 Speaker 1: think that that Romeo Cornell could take advantage of the 451 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: inexperience of Lamar Jackson. But then if he is the 452 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 1: guy that I know and the guy that played yesterday 453 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: against the Chiefs that almost pulled one out, you have 454 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 1: to defend eleven on eleven and when he breaks, it's 455 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: as fast as any player on the field. I mean, 456 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,959 Speaker 1: it's not like a mobile quarterback that's just broken the pocket. 457 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 1: It's like wide receiver speed, so that a couple of minutes, 458 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,239 Speaker 1: so he's under a lot of people underestimate just how 459 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: how well he actually can throw the ball and from 460 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: a lot of different angles where it doesn't have to 461 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: be a perfectly clean pocket for him to complete passes. 462 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 1: So I would probably say the Ravens in that regard 463 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 1: because I still feel exactly the way I described about 464 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: the Colts and Andrew Luck right now, Trey. The Jets 465 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 1: beat the Bills yesterday. Boys. The leading rusher for the 466 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 1: Bills was Josh Allen with one hundred one yards on 467 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: nine carries. Hope out that I'm looking at the book 468 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 1: right now. Two hundred yards throwing, one hundred yards rushing 469 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 1: yet happened. I mean, that's just it's it's an interesting 470 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 1: offensive attack they put together. Darnald Throof for one seventy 471 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 1: sixteen to twenty four, one touchdown, one pick, Drey, what 472 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 1: do you think of Darnald? What do you think of 473 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 1: him coming out and where he is right now as 474 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:25,360 Speaker 1: a pro? I know you haven't had a full chance 475 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: to get ready for this one yet, but early thoughts. Yeah, 476 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,120 Speaker 1: I like him. I liked him coming out. I liked 477 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 1: his toughness. I like his accuracy, is grit, There's something 478 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 1: about him. There's there's a reason he was, you know, 479 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 1: named the starter from the very first snap of the season. 480 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 1: And then when you go to a place like that 481 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 1: this time of year, there's always always elements that play 482 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 1: into it that you're not used to. We just went 483 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,479 Speaker 1: almost what a full month with a roof over our 484 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 1: heads and things of that sort, and then you got 485 00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 1: to go to the Northeast where the weather is getting ugly, 486 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,719 Speaker 1: and those types of games always, uh, you know, always 487 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 1: play a little bit differently, even though you might be 488 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: the better team on paper going to a place like that. 489 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: So the Jets found something yesterday against the Bills that 490 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:18,160 Speaker 1: was at twenty seven points in the conditions yesterday, so 491 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,679 Speaker 1: this one won't be easy. And then you follow that 492 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 1: one with a game at Philadelphia, same type of issues 493 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,920 Speaker 1: where you know elements are going to play a part. 494 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 1: They're ticked off after losing yesterday and trying to still 495 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 1: hang on by a thread or whatever they whatever chances 496 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 1: they have, So it's a must win this week for them, 497 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: and if not, they turn into the spoiler role. So 498 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: the next two weeks will be very very interesting as 499 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:47,719 Speaker 1: as as we move forward. Dre end of game plays 500 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:51,479 Speaker 1: that you can remember in the NFL. Where does the 501 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: Dolphins hook and lateral times too? Where does that one 502 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 1: rank as far as craziest end of NFL game plays 503 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,400 Speaker 1: you've seen? Yeah, I've seen a couple of hell Mary's 504 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:06,440 Speaker 1: that you didn't expect to have pull off, but this 505 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,479 Speaker 1: one ranks ranks pretty high because of you know, a 506 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 1: couple of laterals and then instead of Kenyan Drake looking 507 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 1: the lateral himself. It's like, wait a minute, I got 508 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: enough green grass in front of me, and I like 509 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,159 Speaker 1: my speed based on who's in front of me, and 510 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 1: Gronk stumbled and that's all it took for Drake to 511 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 1: get around him and get himself in the end. I 512 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:30,119 Speaker 1: was a fantastic finish. And on the on the other 513 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 1: side of that, you go back to the Pittsburgh Raider 514 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 1: game where they throw a nice curl and and and 515 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 1: and flip where Smith Schuster gets down the sideline. They 516 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 1: in one play they are in field goal range and 517 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 1: our old buddy slips on a field goal attempt. That 518 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 1: is about as weird of a finish as because yeah, 519 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: because you know, I've seen him missed. I've never seen 520 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: him where the guy just loses his play d and 521 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:05,639 Speaker 1: it doesn't go it basically anywhere. So it's that beautiful field. 522 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 1: Two totally different finishes, but both were crazy none the less. 523 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 1: I remember the Saints had one at Jacksonville where they 524 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: had all these crazy laterals scored and the extra points. 525 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,359 Speaker 1: The extra point. He missed the extra point. Unbelievable after 526 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 1: all this short extra point. Yeah, the old time, the 527 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 1: old one, the old extra point. Guys. By the way, 528 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 1: since we're convening here on Monday morning, the weather forecast 529 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 1: for Saturday in New York. Are you ready for this one? 530 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 1: I've looked all right now, and you've got to look 531 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 1: within here, because me, the sailor in me is coming 532 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 1: out here. The winds are shifting to north northwest as 533 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 1: the day goes on to ten to twenty miles per hour. 534 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 1: That's cold, boys, even though the temperature says a low 535 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 1: of forty one. Believe me, that wind coming out of 536 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 1: the north a warm booth. What do you complain. I'm 537 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 1: just talking about for for your safety, Johnny, bundle up 538 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: and the team is definitely going to be feeling the 539 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,439 Speaker 1: colder temperatures now. Luckily for them, they're getting in some 540 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 1: colder weather. Houston context twice this week. Drey thoughts on 541 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray waiting the Heisman Trophy this weekend. Yeah, I 542 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:10,400 Speaker 1: kind of felt like that was going to happen. Mark. 543 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: You know, you got a lot of Alabama hangover and 544 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 1: SEC hangover. People have just kind of grown tired of it. 545 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 1: It was two all year every week, and then he 546 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: put together two games in which he struggled against Auburn 547 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: in the first half, and then he didn't look anywhere 548 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: near himself against against Georgia in the SEC championship game. 549 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 1: So you mix those things together, and I think a 550 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 1: lot of voters, which is a smart thing to do, 551 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 1: waited this year until the final week to turn in 552 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 1: Ballance because it's all done electronically anyway, Why would you 553 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 1: turn him in a week earlier. As soon as you 554 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,480 Speaker 1: get him, you got everything figured out. Let the season 555 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 1: play itself out. And I think if that greatly benefited 556 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray and his winning the high All right, Trey, Hey, 557 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 1: thanks a lot for captain up with us, and we'll 558 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 1: talk to you later in the week. All right, guys, 559 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: we'll see you then. Great stuff there from Andre Ware. 560 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 1: I love talking about the hisman. Kyler Murray gets the 561 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: Heisman and one thing that I noted this morning was 562 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 1: that that's the second straight transfer to win the Heisman. 563 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:22,959 Speaker 1: Oklahoma transfer two. Baker Mayfield goes from Texas Tech to Oklahoma, 564 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray goes from A and M to Oklahoma kids 565 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: transferring and ends up working out. I'm trying to think 566 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 1: if I went back in history, Lamar Jackson did not, 567 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 1: Derreck Henry did not, Mariota did not, Jamis did not, 568 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 1: Johnny did not, Robert Griffin the third did not. Cam 569 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 1: did Cam was a transfer first Florida, then Blend, then Auburn, 570 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 1: mark Ingram did not, Sam Bradford, No, t Boat, No 571 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: Troy Smith. No. There haven't been very many transfers to 572 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: have won it, but the fact that a two transfers 573 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 1: two Oklahoma ended up winning it. B they wanted back 574 00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: to back. That hasn't been done since four forty six. Technically, now, 575 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 1: USC did at No. Four, No. Five with Matt Liner No. 576 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: Four and Regie Bustional five, but Reggie didn't count allegedly, 577 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 1: So you got mister inside mister outside. You had Doc 578 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 1: Blanchard forty five for Army and Glenn Davis mister mister 579 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: outside for Army. For forty five forties. That's the last 580 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 1: time two different players wanted the same school back to 581 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 1: back years. Now, those two played together in both forty 582 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 1: five and forty six, And I guess you could say 583 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: that Baker and Baker and Kyler played together. They did 584 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 1: in sixteen seventeen, not eighteen. So there you go. Congratulations 585 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: to Kyler Murray. And I guess if you're placing Heisman odds, 586 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 1: just go ahead and place them on the Oklahoma quarterback 587 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 1: for next year. Just go ahead and do that. You 588 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 1: probably probably be probably be right. I mean, heck, if 589 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: you want to win the Heisman, go play for Lincoln Riley. 590 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 1: He's two for two, two years as head coach, two 591 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 1: Big Twelve championships, two trips to the College Football Playoff, 592 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 1: two Heisman Trophy winners, Bing bang boom. Right there, All right, 593 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 1: we'll talk a little bit more Texans next with our 594 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 1: buddy Spencer Tillman.

Carnival, the official cruise line of 600 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 1: the Houston Texans shoes fun Now Sunday wasn't. Overall, it 601 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: was not very fun. I think you and I can well, 602 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: I think we can agree on that. But there were 603 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 1: a couple of moments that, well, I thought we're pretty cool. 604 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 1: So let's go with this one as our Choose Fund 605 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 1: Moment of the Week from Carnival. Third and ten, Colts 606 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: at the Houston thirty. Luck in the gun. Here's the 607 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 1: snap pocket collapsing, lock throws all over the metal tip. 608 00:31:55,560 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 1: Dan Better scepted Drey Hell at the fifteen yard He's 609 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 1: got the ball and the tech sense turned back. Indeed, 610 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 1: I thought that was a moment right there. Andre hawmut 611 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 1: an interception. In the second quarter, the Colts had strung 612 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: together a drive and the one thing that I had 613 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 1: warned against in some sense was t Y Hilton going deep. 614 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 1: And one of the reasons that I felt strongly about 615 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 1: that was when you have a player of that ilk 616 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 1: and you're struggling offensively, it takes one play and that 617 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: one play can ignite everything. And the up tempo did 618 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: help Andrew on that drive. But because they were kind 619 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 1: of dinking and dunking down the field. They had more times, 620 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 1: more reps, more plays. You got to execute that much 621 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 1: more every single play, and all of a sudden, when 622 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 1: you've had enough plays in that drive, Andrew made a mistake. 623 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: But then when you give him a two play drive, 624 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: and also at seven points, you're demoralized. Just you're like, wow, man, 625 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 1: we've been playing really good defense and it took one 626 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 1: big play and then a run by Marlon Mack and 627 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,239 Speaker 1: you look up at seven seven. So I kind of 628 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: felt like that Hall interception like got him here, We 629 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 1: got him, Not we're gonna squeeze him out and win 630 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: thirty seven to three. But I sort of felt like 631 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: we are under control. We got this one under control. 632 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 1: We just gotta take care of business from here on out. 633 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 1: And I turn the ball over going down and punches 634 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: one in, take a fourteen nothing lead, and then see 635 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 1: where we are after that, And where we were was 636 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,080 Speaker 1: seven and nothing couldn't add on to the lead. Next 637 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: drive all the way down the field and one play 638 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 1: Marlin Mack punches in at seven to seven, and then 639 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 1: you would then you thought like me, oh boy, here 640 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 1: we go. And that's what it was. It was a 641 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 1: game just like that. Now when we need a little 642 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 1: perspective check or perspective change in some sense, we talked 643 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 1: to our buddy, Spencer Tillman, and he is very good 644 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 1: at keeping it real for all of us here. He is. 645 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: So help me feel better. But give me what you're 646 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 1: concerned about as well, please, sir, Well, good morning, gentleman. 647 00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 1: I think the things to be concerned about, it's just 648 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 1: any affinity or not affinity. Maybe that's that's too willful 649 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:08,319 Speaker 1: of the determ. Maybe maybe it's any regression toward the mean. 650 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 1: You know, when you go backwards towards what is the 651 00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: balanced state? Um, that's a problem because you know, and 652 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 1: again I'm the elephant in the room. Yesterday was obviously 653 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:20,880 Speaker 1: the final play essentially with Davian Clowney, you know, in 654 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 1: the neutral zone violation. When you know that that play 655 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 1: was designed especially for him because unfortunately m he has 656 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 1: had an aptitude for getting to the quarterback as part 657 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 1: of his natural skill set. But then bringing that under 658 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 1: control at critical times is so important. And I think, 659 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 1: guys in a private room without consequences, and as an 660 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 1: analysis is my job to say this, I never ever 661 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 1: throw any person under the bus, I critique performance and 662 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,279 Speaker 1: not the individual. I would say that we've got to 663 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 1: grow up at some point in time. Um, the needs 664 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 1: and the position of the team is more important, and 665 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: you can't be selfish. And people don't think of it 666 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: as being self whis you said you think I didn't 667 00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 1: go out there and do it intentionally. No, he didn't 668 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 1: do it inten But at some point in time, if 669 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 1: you can control certain things behaviors, reactions, responses, it's your 670 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 1: obligation as a professional to do that. And that's what 671 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,319 Speaker 1: it basically comes down to. So you can't hurt your team. 672 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:15,320 Speaker 1: So I think any inclination to do that, you gotta 673 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,359 Speaker 1: just nix it. You gotta nip it in the butt 674 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 1: and cut it out. I think the thing is everything 675 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 1: is in ebb and flow the course of the year. 676 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 1: Individual performances tend to be that way, but you got 677 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,360 Speaker 1: to reach a certain level where is predictable. The greatest 678 00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 1: ability is dependability, and that's what you need to have 679 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 1: as a player at the National Football League level. All right, Spencer, 680 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 1: I'm making you head coaches at Texans for Tuesday when 681 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 1: the team comes back. Team meeting is sometime in the 682 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:41,239 Speaker 1: morning and they're sitting in their chairs, and you've got 683 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 1: to walk in and deliver the message to them at 684 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,359 Speaker 1: that point getting ready for the Jets, What is your 685 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 1: message to this team when you walk in? The messages 686 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 1: the inner game cannot not be played. Guys. I can 687 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,359 Speaker 1: sit here and give you what I think is the 688 00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 1: best thing you need to hear. But you're going into 689 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 1: a place where the elements are going to be a factor. 690 00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 1: You're coming off a nine game winning streak, even though 691 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:08,520 Speaker 1: you had a correction. You're still playing with house money. 692 00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 1: But can you go out and still overcome the natural 693 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:14,839 Speaker 1: inclinations and compete at the highest level possible. It's as 694 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 1: simple as that. The only thing we can assess is 695 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 1: what happens after the game, But you can determine what 696 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 1: happens up until the game, and that's ultimately what's going 697 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:26,400 Speaker 1: to determine your performance on game day. So go do 698 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 1: what you need to do. Practice are we're gonna manifest. 699 00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:31,319 Speaker 1: You know that's gonna manifest itself every single day. Our 700 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,280 Speaker 1: performance there will evaluate that in tweak. But the bottom 701 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 1: line is this game is one or cross on before 702 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:38,799 Speaker 1: we even get to that football field. So it's the 703 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 1: inner game. The inner game cannot not be played. What 704 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:44,799 Speaker 1: are you eating tonight? Who are you associating with all 705 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:48,640 Speaker 1: the little things that culminate until a mindset on Saturday? 706 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,399 Speaker 1: In this particular case, what are you doing? I can't 707 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,880 Speaker 1: believe all of that. You're grown men. You do it 708 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 1: and we'll settle with the results after the game is 709 00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 1: over with. So it's as simple as that, these are 710 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,160 Speaker 1: grown men you're talking to. You just tell them the truth. 711 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 1: It's not rocket science. Spencer Bill O'Brien has told us 712 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:09,319 Speaker 1: that he looks from the sideline from his position to 713 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 1: see how the line of scrimmage is moving, and that 714 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:15,440 Speaker 1: determines a lot in play calling and how the running 715 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:18,719 Speaker 1: game's going. Obviously yesterday it was not moving in the 716 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,759 Speaker 1: right direction enough in the first half. What needs to 717 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:23,920 Speaker 1: be done? What can be done to run the football 718 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,720 Speaker 1: better next time out? Because obviously it was tough yesterday 719 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 1: for the third best rushing attack in the league. Guys, 720 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 1: I'm telling you this isn't that complicated, Muhammad. All those 721 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:35,760 Speaker 1: guys were playing on our side of the line of scrimmage. 722 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 1: That's an energy deal. That's a great game plan. Right 723 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 1: when they went down to those and I'm not trying 724 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,200 Speaker 1: to get two technical here. When they went reduction, look 725 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 1: to our unbalanced side, we couldn't sort out who the 726 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 1: block when all in doubt. Squeeze it, squeeze it. It It 727 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: ain't rocket science. I mean, look, you can't expect to 728 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 1: protect your quarterbacks when you're in those situations. If you're 729 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 1: in doubt, squeeze the darn thing. Just bunch everybody up 730 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:01,360 Speaker 1: and make sure that that point from tackle a tackle, 731 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: our guard to guard is as secure as it possibly can. 732 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 1: And that's what you do. So they're playing on our 733 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, that's energy, right, that's free determined And 734 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 1: if you've got a good game plan, you got good energy, 735 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:14,759 Speaker 1: you're doomed if you're on the opposite side of that. 736 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,799 Speaker 1: So to me, that's easily the first thing I look 737 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:19,719 Speaker 1: in the film. I said, look, they're winning the line 738 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 1: of scrimmage battle, guys, that's the bottom line. That's an 739 00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 1: energy deal. And if they're really in your wheelhouse and 740 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 1: they are opposite side of the line of scrimmage, that 741 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 1: means the game plan has metched the energy level, and 742 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,480 Speaker 1: you've got those two things working, you're gonna have a 743 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 1: long afternoon of the office specier defensively second quarter. By 744 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,760 Speaker 1: middle of the the second quarter to the end of the third, 745 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,839 Speaker 1: middle of the end of the third quarter, Andrew luck 746 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:45,880 Speaker 1: was in some kind of zone. Baker Mayfield in the 747 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 1: second half piled up a lot of yards. Texas were 748 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:49,920 Speaker 1: ahead at that point twenty three to nothing until they 749 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 1: piled up a lot of yards. How concerned are you 750 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 1: about the rushing to coverage working together to slow down 751 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 1: good passers going forward. Well, unfortunately, because he was in 752 00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:02,000 Speaker 1: the zone. He was a surgeon and shoulder pads yesterday. 753 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 1: And then obviously we know about Ty Hilton. He's just 754 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 1: he's got an affinity, he's a tough matchup. He's got 755 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:11,680 Speaker 1: a big days against us. In particular. Listen, if you 756 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 1: go back and look at maybe five of the choice 757 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:15,600 Speaker 1: routes that they liked to run, it didn't matter who 758 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 1: it was against. They were picking apart everybody. So once again, 759 00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:21,840 Speaker 1: it was the formation, it was the play selection against 760 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 1: the coverage that matched up almost ideally one hundred and 761 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:27,120 Speaker 1: ninety nine yards. That was about as perfect a performance 762 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,879 Speaker 1: as you possibly could have had. And again, you can't 763 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 1: defend a perfectly thrown pass. That's just impossible to defend. 764 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 1: I mean I felt bad for Jjo on a couple 765 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:37,759 Speaker 1: of those stops, back shoulder throws that are there. It's 766 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:39,680 Speaker 1: on the way you can be. You know, you can 767 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 1: cover like a blanket, but you can't defend it. So 768 00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:45,360 Speaker 1: the combination of a guy who doesn't look anything like 769 00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 1: a third round draft pick, a great quarterback who understands 770 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 1: what he's trying to do against a guy that understands 771 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 1: your coverage, you know, it's almost impossible. So I'm not disappointed. 772 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,480 Speaker 1: What I'm simply saying is you just gotta turn it up. 773 00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 1: You gotta do whatever you can possibly to disguise your 774 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,880 Speaker 1: coverages and wait till the very last minute to rotate 775 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:05,960 Speaker 1: to them so that you can give yourself the best 776 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 1: advantage possible. So you know, lick Rack is the best 777 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 1: man doing the zone blest combinations and the schemes that 778 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:15,400 Speaker 1: make for good defense. But again, the players have to 779 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 1: execute what he's trying to do. And if somebody's gets 780 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,760 Speaker 1: in your kitchen or in your wheelhouse, you just gotta 781 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:24,279 Speaker 1: work harder man find ways to again disguise at the 782 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:28,479 Speaker 1: last minute, which your intentions are. Spencer, your alma mater, 783 00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:33,760 Speaker 1: does it again. Another Heisman Trophy winner. What do you think, Well, 784 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 1: I just love the fact that we are manifesting what 785 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 1: sooner DNA is all about. You tweeted something now the 786 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,920 Speaker 1: other day people are like, what the heck of daxeo 787 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,960 Speaker 1: ribal nucleic acid. I said, that's the double helix, what 788 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 1: carries all the information that determines whether or not you 789 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 1: succeed or live or die. And I put a picture 790 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 1: of Baker Mayfield and Tyler Murray next to one another, 791 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 1: and it's just a It was a great little nugget. Guys, 792 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 1: go back and read it if you If your board 793 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:00,400 Speaker 1: gets tired and you're in no, but it's great. Lincoln 794 00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:03,240 Speaker 1: Riley has done something that's never been done before. Also 795 00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:05,840 Speaker 1: tweeted that you can only be first once. Guys. Nobody 796 00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:08,600 Speaker 1: in the history of college football has produced back to 797 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 1: back Heisman Trophy winners from the same position. If you 798 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 1: want to go back and be technical, forty five forty six, 799 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 1: Doc Blanchard, mister inside was so outside Glenn Davis. Those 800 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:19,000 Speaker 1: guys did it. The one was a fullback and the 801 00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 1: other one was at halfback, so those were technically two 802 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,560 Speaker 1: different positions. Outside of that, it's never been done before, 803 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:28,239 Speaker 1: so kudos to Tyler, kudos to Lincoln Riley.
