1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:00,960 Speaker 1: What's up? Everybody? 2 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:06,040 Speaker 2: Welcome into a Wednesday edition, a post first day of 3 00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:11,280 Speaker 2: Training Camp practice edition Wednesday edition of Texans All Access. 4 00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 2: John Harris alongside Mark vandermir marko Training Camp. 5 00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:17,040 Speaker 1: Day number one. 6 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, fun like everything you can want at training camp practice. 7 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:24,640 Speaker 1: We got a lot that we're gonna go over tonight. 8 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:26,720 Speaker 1: Drey joined us on the show. We're gonna have that 9 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 1: for you. 10 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 2: At the beginnaire's we had to claim we hear all 11 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 2: of that, but we didn't give our thoughts on what 12 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 2: we saw the first day of training camp practice your 13 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:33,720 Speaker 2: thoughts all right. 14 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 3: So I got back into the building and everybody in 15 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 3: the business office who wasn't out. 16 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 1: There was saying, how do they look? 17 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:39,599 Speaker 4: How do they look? 18 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:41,519 Speaker 1: They don't want to know. They're chopping at the bit, 19 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:42,159 Speaker 1: and I love that. 20 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 3: There's more curiosity, anticipation, excitement than has been here in 21 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,519 Speaker 3: a long time. I mean, it really is palpable. So 22 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 3: my stock answer was, and the quick elevator pitch type 23 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 3: answer was, the defense is out to destroy everything in 24 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 3: its past, and today looked like they could. And the offense, 25 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 3: it's day one, right, they had some moments, but you're 26 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,039 Speaker 3: trying to piece it together, not piece it. 27 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: Together, trying to construct something here. You know how it is. 28 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 1: We always talk about it. 29 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 3: It's easier to destroy something than it is to build something. 30 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 3: They're trying to build something, not necessarily from scratch. We 31 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,279 Speaker 3: talked about the O line, the addition of Titus Howard 32 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,839 Speaker 3: for more years, not the addition, but the continued inclusion 33 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 3: and the fact that they have stability. But Shaq Mason 34 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 3: is the big addition there and Kenyan Green coming back 35 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 3: there with another night's plus. My thought was this, though 36 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 3: it's day one of building this offense, let's measure it 37 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 3: again in a week, although you and I will measure 38 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 3: it every day and see where we're at, because they've 39 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 3: got to make some progress there, and they will, but 40 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 3: this is the first time we've seen it in a 41 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 3: camp setting. 42 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think there were a couple things going 43 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 2: on today. Number one, I felt like, and you and 44 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 2: I obviously are on from eight to ten in the morning, 45 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 2: so it was at about ten o'clock they were right 46 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: near the end of seven on seven and I remember 47 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 2: getting off the air and walking over going, oh boy, 48 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 2: it's hot out here. 49 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: I feel like that. 50 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 2: Played a role and it and listen, the heat is 51 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 2: a major factor. It's a major factor for these guys. 52 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 2: And I talked to Alex Bachman after practice and I 53 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,119 Speaker 2: just kind of asked him how it was. He goes, 54 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 2: you know, I was doing I was doing fine. I 55 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 2: was doing great. He said, then we had a special 56 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 2: teams period. He said, I didn't. I didn't get a 57 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 2: break during that period. 58 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: Ooh, that's right. And he just said, whoa. So he said, 59 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 1: guys don't get a break. 60 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 2: From that point on, it gets to be more about 61 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 2: Now he didn't say this, I'll say this, it gets 62 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 2: to be more about survival. Yeah, and you start losing 63 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 2: a little bit of the focus on some of the 64 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 2: little things, like for the receivers catching football. That was 65 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 2: one of the things, and not just the receivers. I 66 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 2: felt like, I feel like the pass catchers were off 67 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 2: today a little bit. There were some throws they normally 68 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 2: would hang on to. Everybody seemed to drop one that 69 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 2: they normally would hang on to. They missed some deep balls, 70 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 2: but I thought after that, you know, it was a 71 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 2: lot of deep balls they missed, But the one that 72 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 2: they hit that was actually right in front of me, 73 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 2: Mark was was CJ. Stroud through on Nico Collins and. 74 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 3: I mean that was beautiful, beautiful because we really hadn't 75 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 3: seen that last year. The deep ball was starkly missing 76 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 3: from these practices and to see one today like that 77 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 3: on day one was really encouraging. 78 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, and Nico got behind the DBS and I can't 79 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 2: remember who was back there. I can't remember if that 80 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 2: was on Nelson's side or Stingley side or whomever, but 81 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 2: Nico got got behind him. Ment I think people gloss 82 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 2: over the fact that Nico can run. He could really 83 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 2: really run. But the throw from Stroud, I mean, the 84 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 2: ball is really right in line basically for me, and 85 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 2: I'm like, he launched that thing. So as I'm trying 86 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 2: to track the ball, I'm looking Ornko is tracking the 87 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 2: ball a Cornkoez like, I think he's got this and 88 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 2: Bang hits him right in hand and he had missed 89 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 2: a couple early hit and Noah Brown wide open down 90 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 2: the middle and missed on a deep route. But even 91 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 2: without pads, I thought the D line really really put 92 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 2: their foot down. I thought the D line just created 93 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 2: all kinds of havoc. And I know offensive line are 94 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 2: like because we couldn't have pads on and I get 95 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 2: that I completely and totally understand you. I understand that 96 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 2: just saying what we saw today, I felt like a 97 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 2: defensive line. 98 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: And I talk about Roy Lopez. We had Roy in. 99 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 2: Here during media days and we talked to Roy. In fact, 100 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 2: we probably talked to him the longest we had. We 101 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 2: had a lot of talk about it. We we love Roy, 102 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 2: and I think a lot of people in the city 103 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 2: love Roy. There's no there's no question about it. I 104 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 2: put in my Hairris Hits, which you can see at 105 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 2: Houston Texas dot com. I also tweeted out a couple 106 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 2: of times I wish we had a photo from Roy 107 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 2: as a rookie and could put that up next to 108 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 2: the photo. 109 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: Of him now. He looks different. He is transformed, Yes, transformed. Yeah. 110 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 3: The body weight has gone up. Yeah, the opposite of 111 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 3: what happens to a lot of people when they get older, 112 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 3: much older, when gravity takes it's tall. Yes, he is 113 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 3: sort of buying gravity. You and I saw him the 114 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 3: first day of OTAs in twenty twenty one, and we 115 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 3: were impressed with the size of Roy Lopez, right, But 116 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 3: then you look at his physique now and everything's sort 117 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 3: of lifted up, right a little bit. 118 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's he's more than just a couple of tree shrunks. 119 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 2: And he was quick off the ball today, Hassan Ridge. 120 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 2: We had a number of plays like that, Thomas Booker 121 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 2: just getting up field and creating mayhem or running backs 122 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 2: to getting the ball going. 123 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 1: Well where did I go? So that was I thought 124 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 1: the defense was was doubted. 125 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 2: I thought the secondary had a couple of more than 126 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 2: a couple of coverage sacks. 127 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,279 Speaker 1: They were. They did some good things. 128 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 2: But I'll give you one other one, okay that I 129 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 2: that I saw that I I was. 130 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: I was really impressed. 131 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 2: I think this linebacker group has some dudes that can run. 132 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 2: They just have some dudes, but they have some guys 133 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:56,679 Speaker 2: that can run, but also that understand pass coverage. Henry 134 00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 2: Toto I should have an interception during practice. There was 135 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,239 Speaker 2: a kind of play action fake. He read it right away. 136 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 2: He got right into the passing lane and CJ never 137 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 2: saw him and the ball hit Henry right in his 138 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 2: hands and he dropped it. But just the fact that 139 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 2: he was there, the fact that and I watched the 140 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 2: play up on the big board because they'll have to 141 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 2: play live and then you can look at the big 142 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 2: board and they're running the plays, and so I see 143 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 2: him like, man, that's a beautiful drop for a linebacker. 144 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 2: I'm not talking to The next series had to be 145 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 2: like two or three plays later. Jake Hansen does a 146 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 2: similar thing. They kind of boot one way, or they 147 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 2: kind of have action one way, and then they boot 148 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 2: the other way. And he kind of went with the action, 149 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 2: stayed with his keys, realized it was boot, turned to 150 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 2: look for a receiver, drop right back in the lap 151 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,600 Speaker 2: of a receiver quarterback. I saw him cut the throw 152 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 2: and then Hanson was there. He had to pull it 153 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 2: down and he went somewhere else. When you have linebackers 154 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 2: that can cover like that and can run like they do, 155 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 2: you got a chance to do a whole lot of 156 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 2: different things. I mean a million different things. But I 157 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 2: thought the defense was completely dialed in today. 158 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 1: I think the linebacker is thing. 159 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,039 Speaker 3: You know when you do your position breakdowns, because you 160 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 3: did receivers today, you're gonna have to dig deep into 161 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 3: there because they're only going to play two a lot 162 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 3: of the time. The majority of the game, you only 163 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 3: play two linebackers, and they have a lot of depth here. 164 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 3: And Denzel Paraman out there today just looks like he 165 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 3: knows what he's doing. He does, you know, you look 166 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 3: at him like, oh, that guy knows what he's doing right, 167 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 3: the way he has command in that defensive huddle and everything, 168 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 3: you just see it. One quick note from me on 169 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 3: the deep balls. Am I right about this? The CJ 170 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 3: deep balls that didn't connect? I thought, if you overthrow guys, 171 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 3: so what right? Just take a shot. And he was 172 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 3: under pressure and was able to launch the ball very 173 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 3: cleanly and easily a couple of times, and guys couldn't 174 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 3: get under it. But they were also kind of jammed up, 175 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 3: if you will. There was a little traffic in the route, 176 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 3: so who knows what goes into that. 177 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: But I didn't mind anything I saw today. 178 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 3: It didn't discourage me that way if I see those misconnections, 179 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 3: because I know they have time to work on it. 180 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: That's what you do win this time of year. 181 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 3: And I'm eager to see how it all comes together, 182 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 3: and I have a feeling it will. 183 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 2: One of the things I took out of Mini camp 184 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 2: and OTAs was the first The first week a little 185 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 2: bit of struggle. Second week, boy, you're starting to see 186 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 2: some things. Third week, there's some new things you're seeing 187 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 2: from the defense. But there were adjustments and then the 188 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 2: last week, Okay, they're hitting on some things. Now they're 189 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 2: in a pretty good groove. It's day one. You get back, 190 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 2: You'll get back in that groove. I'm like you, I 191 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 2: wasn't worried about anything. You know, last year there was 192 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 2: this big hubb but oh my god, Davis Mills, you 193 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,439 Speaker 2: can't hit the deep ball. We're all gonna panic. And 194 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 2: you know, the deep ball is kind of tricky in 195 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 2: some sense because you know, sometimes you hit in practice, 196 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:43,959 Speaker 2: Oh it's perfect, then you get in a game and 197 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 2: you never hit it. But I think I think last 198 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,839 Speaker 2: year maybe what we did see in camp was maybe 199 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:50,599 Speaker 2: an indication in the fact that they weren't going to 200 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 2: be explosive down the field throwing a football. 201 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 3: We saw too many misses on air last year, and 202 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 3: that's what bothered me. Look, it's one thing. If you 203 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 3: got eleven on eleven, everybody's jammed up and you misconnect, 204 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 3: just don't turn it over right, live to fight another down, 205 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 3: which is what they did. We saw enough of strouded 206 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 3: OTAs to understand what's coming here as they get into 207 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 3: the flow and they need time. 208 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 2: Well, one of the throws that he missed on Noah Brown. 209 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 2: A thing that I loved about it was I don't 210 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 2: think Noah was the first read. He was looking at 211 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 2: the other side of the field and he scanned, he 212 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 2: saw Noah and then bang. I like that part, the 213 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 2: fact that he went through his progressions like no, no, yes, 214 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:28,559 Speaker 2: and he just he just missed on the throw and 215 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 2: those those things. 216 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: Are gonna happen. 217 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,079 Speaker 2: But I felt like overall last fifteen twenty minutes of 218 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 2: practice you could see it was it was wearing on. 219 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 2: It was wearing on guys. But the I'll say this 220 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 2: last thing mark before we get to Andre, who was 221 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 2: on with us this morning. The talent level, the speed, quickness, size, 222 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 2: like everything you'd want a football team is. It feels 223 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 2: it feels completely transformed from what. 224 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: It was last year. 225 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 3: Yes, very good point. Transformed. I like that word a lot. 226 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 3: I couldn't come up with a better one. 227 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: That is what a is. 228 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 3: It's a totally different situation here as we harken back 229 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 3: to last year. I like comparing years and things like 230 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 3: that because it does give you some perspective. And now 231 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 3: the perspective should be, oh boy, there's a lot more 232 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 3: talent out. 233 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: There, and that is a good thing. Now. 234 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 2: The two of us are nowhere near as talented as 235 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 2: our next guest, but it's our good friend Andreway to 236 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 2: chance chance. 237 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: Catch up with Drey this morning. 238 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:28,319 Speaker 2: A mild surprise, uh, not surprised that he was at practice, 239 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 2: but just hopped on over. 240 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: We put him on the air and some good stuff 241 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: came out of it.

It'll be ready for you. 266 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 3: And it always is. It's awesome. Drey thoughts on Sean 267 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:35,679 Speaker 3: Metchi cleared to go coming back from what was the 268 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 3: knee last year, maybe a hammy in the off season, 269 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 3: and of course leukemia the most important thing. 270 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 1: But he's cleared. What could he mean to this at time? 271 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: How long will they get going? 272 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, and this has been a long time coming, waiting 273 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 5: on him to to get get himself well and healed, 274 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 5: and certainly the Texans were gonna be as patient as 275 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 5: they needed to be. But you get a weapon with 276 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 5: John Matchi, a guy that can take at the distance 277 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 5: a quarterback loves because you just hit him on a 278 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 5: short underneath route. He can, you know, pop a break 279 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,679 Speaker 5: a tackle and pop one for you. So they get 280 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 5: a big time weapon. And at the position I think 281 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 5: that they need some help at receiver, Drey. 282 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 2: When it comes to training camp, John McClean said these 283 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 2: two words a little while ago. Actually it's I don't 284 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 2: know a hyphenated word. He said two days and ah 285 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 2: it went inward, if you know what I mean. I 286 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 2: just was like, oh, what was the best thing about 287 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 2: training camp? 288 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,439 Speaker 1: What was the worst thing about training camp? 289 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 6: The best thing is that you knew the season was starting. 290 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 5: And that's about where it stopped from a players standpoint, 291 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 5: because you've gone through you know, these guys now speaking 292 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 5: of modern terms, you know they've gone through all this 293 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 5: entire OTAs and so installation is a thing of the 294 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 5: past right now. We would spend the first two or 295 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 5: three weeks just installing, and then after about the third week, 296 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 5: you know, now you start you start to repeat stuff, 297 00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 5: and that's where it starts to really really get old 298 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 5: and your body starts to break down about that time, 299 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 5: no matter how. 300 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 6: Good shape you're in. 301 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,839 Speaker 5: That's where you've got to have a head coach that 302 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 5: that really knows the how to read his team in 303 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 5: terms of when to give them days off, when to 304 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 5: push them hard, when to back off, things of that sort. 305 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 5: But uh, yeah, once once you get past that third week, 306 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 5: it's uh, it's all downhill. 307 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: Dray. 308 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 3: We always talk about camp and it's hot.

Otherwise you 346 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 5: wouldn't extend to the point that they've done and know 347 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 5: it'd have been a one two year or try to 348 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 5: do it on a on a fly on a one 349 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 5: or two years. But when you extend past two years, 350 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 5: then you believe in what what you have. Uh, this 351 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 5: is the line that they're going to operate with for CJ. 352 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 5: Stroud for the next couple of years. And and maybe 353 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 5: some tinkering here and there are injuries here or there 354 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 5: that that caused for some changes, but this is the 355 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 5: line that they're going with, they believe in, and uh, 356 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 5: this is the group that's got to get it done. 357 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 3: Drey thoughts on the quarterback market. With Herbert signing yesterday, 358 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 3: Burrow has yet to go. Lamar got his deal. The 359 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 3: money seems crazier than ever. But then I look at 360 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 3: you know, Max contract from the Celtics yesterday, and that's 361 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 3: just such a three and four million money and I'm 362 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 3: just thinking, well, these are quarterbacks in the most popular 363 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 3: sport in America. 364 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: I mean, people can't complain. 365 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 5: And they got to do it to Jason Tatum the 366 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 5: next year, he's a Max got next year and he'll 367 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 5: command more than that. But it's it's, uh, it's gotten crazy. 368 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 5: The soccer player that was that? Was that a was 369 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 5: that a uh just a rumor? No, No, one year 370 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 5: on year for a billion Saudis. 371 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: Are doing everything to get involved in sports. One year 372 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: a billy. 373 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 6: That's only a bill. I said, that had to be 374 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 6: a joke. 375 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 5: Ten years that cannot be because I would sign that 376 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 5: thing so fast that. 377 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 6: Means he's twenty. I had to prick my finger to 378 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 6: get it in blood. 379 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: He's twenty four, I think. And so they're talking about 380 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: him go from there. 381 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 2: Well he's talking about doing that for a year, but 382 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 2: then going and playing for Real Madrid the next year, 383 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 2: and that that's kind of that becomes his team going 384 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 2: for speaking, Real Madrid playing here tonight tonight. Yeah, yeah, 385 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 2: Real Madrid tonight. Drake just overall this team, Demiko head 386 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 2: coach C. J. Stroud, you know, as a rookie quarterback, 387 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 2: some of the moves that have been made, what's your vibe? 388 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 2: And you get kind of the same good vibe feeling 389 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 2: that that Mark and I've talked about this morning about 390 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 2: this team going to twenty twenty three and especially different 391 00:16:57,920 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 2: than the last three years. 392 00:16:58,840 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 6: Yeah. 393 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 5: The one I thought that they had to do this 394 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 5: offseason was at size on the defensive side of the ball, 395 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,160 Speaker 5: where they you know, there's plenty of quickness, but. 396 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 6: Not just size to to kind of plug up places. 397 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 5: And you add Hassan Ridgeway, who knows the system already, 398 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 5: and he's coming in. 399 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 6: He mean, he just looks like he takes up two spots. 400 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 5: They give him a respectable three oh five, But I'm 401 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 5: betting that it's more it's he's in tremendous shape though, 402 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,680 Speaker 5: because if he's three oh five. He looks bigger, but 403 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 5: you got to be in shape to carry what he's 404 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 5: carrying around. And then speed. I thought they needed to 405 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 5: add some speed to this team as well. I think 406 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 5: they did a pretty good job of that this offseason. 407 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 1: Dray, what's your college situation with ESPN? What can you shore? 408 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 5: Well, not officially, uh, I was told I'm back on 409 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 5: Friday Night's Nothing official has come out yet, all right, 410 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:52,639 Speaker 5: but there's some rumblings some changes in play by play. 411 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 6: I'll be in the same role. 412 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 5: I think my sideline reporter, Paul Karkaterra will be in 413 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 5: the same role.

At that point, Mark and I 515 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 2: were talking about this earlier January, I don't know, ninth, tenth, 516 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 2: whatever it was, the Tuesday after we played Annapolis Colts 517 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 2: and decision to move on for the previous coaching staff 518 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 2: was made. 519 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 1: If you sat down and you, guys, did. 520 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 2: It to do list, like, Okay, these are the things 521 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 2: we need to do for twenty twenty three and beyond. 522 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 2: It feels like you've checked off a lot of those boxes, 523 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 2: extensions for players that you wanted to keep around. A 524 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 2: great draft, but almost most importantly, Damiko Ryan's at the 525 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 2: top of the to do list. 526 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: How important was it to get him for this organization 527 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 1: at this time? 528 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 7: Guys, I think a lot of the to do list 529 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:52,880 Speaker 7: was being made. You know, as you go through a season, 530 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 7: you kind of start jotting things down right when you go, okay, 531 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 7: we need this, we need this one. So it wasn't 532 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 7: just on a Tuesday after the season and you're kind 533 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 7: of evaluating throughout the whole year, and then you know, 534 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 7: obviously the coaching decision was made that Sunday, so your 535 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 7: to do list got a little bit bigger. But I 536 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 7: think that that's exciting. I think when you look at it, 537 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 7: you go, Okay, this is where we want to be. 538 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 7: This is where we. 539 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 8: Want to go. 540 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 7: And you know, with Cal's leadership, we were able to 541 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 7: do a lot of those things, and we still got 542 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,120 Speaker 7: some to do list to do, but we'll get there, 543 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 7: but there's. 544 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,120 Speaker 4: Sort of a timing and a season for all these 545 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:32,200 Speaker 4: different things. And that first start of it was getting 546 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 4: the coach that we felt was the right fit for us. 547 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:39,159 Speaker 4: And we're really excited to have Demiko. And that was 548 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 4: a fun process. We got to all of the interviews where, hey, 549 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 4: if anyone asked you to do an interview, I encourage 550 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 4: you to go do an interview because it really helps 551 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 4: you broaden your horizon and how you look at things 552 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,640 Speaker 4: and you don't know what's going to happen. But that 553 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 4: process was true for us, and we learned from everyone 554 00:23:55,200 --> 00:24:00,879 Speaker 4: we interviewed, but Demiko really stood out being really the 555 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 4: fit for where we are and where we want to go. 556 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 4: So we're so excited to bring him back home. 557 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,639 Speaker 3: Well, so much news even in the last week, and 558 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 3: among the news items today is John Metchi here in uniform, 559 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 3: cleared to play.

And I don't know what Baltimore will be like, 730 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 2: but if it's toasty, you'll at least be climatized for 731 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 2: when you face the Baltimore Ravens. All right, we get back. 732 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 2: We talked to the General this morning as well. Let's 733 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 2: hear what he had to say about all things training camp. 734 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: His forty seventh. 735 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 2: That's more than Mark and I combined twenty two for him, 736 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 2: seventeen for me. That's thirty nine. He's got forty seven. 737 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 2: We'll talk with him next. Right here in Texans aucxis. 738 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 1: We got a final slagment in this edition Texans All Access. 739 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 1: I am your host, John Harris. 740 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 2: We've heard from Andre where we have heard from the mcnairs. 741 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 1: It's not time to hear from the General. 742 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 2: Forty seventh training camp, John McClain with myself, John Harris 743 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 2: and Mark Vandermere talking about training camp. 744 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 1: What he's looking forward to. Its good stuff with the General, Right. 745 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, let's get the general's gut reaction first. Here to 746 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 3: the Titus Howard signing. 747 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 1: General, I think it's tremendous for the Texans. 748 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 9: I thought Titis would test free agency and be one 749 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 9: of the top tackles on the market. Obviously, he likes 750 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 9: the Houston, he likes this team, the direction that's going 751 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,479 Speaker 9: with Tamiko Ryans gets thirty six and a half million 752 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 9: guaranteed story broken by Adam Schefter, So I think Texans 753 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 9: fans got to be ecstatic to know they got their 754 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 9: too offensive tackles tied up for. 755 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 1: Years and a couple of things that hit me. 756 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 2: Number One, first of all, I was shocked, and I'm 757 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 2: shocked just because I kind of resign myself to the 758 00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 2: fact to what John just said, and that is I 759 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 2: thought he was gonna test free agency or the Texans 760 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 2: would tag him or do something like that at the 761 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 2: end of the year. So I've been thinking about it, 762 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 2: but I was just kind of shocked to see, like, oh, yes, 763 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 2: this is happening. That thing hit me was this, they 764 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 2: finally went messing around with Titus Howard. You're like, no, 765 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 2: you're a left guard. No no, no, you're you're a right guard. 766 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 2: No no, you're gona play right tackle. Non no, we're 767 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 2: gonna move you back to guard. They finally just stuck 768 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 2: him at his natural position to right tackle last year. 769 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: And look what happens. 770 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 2: You give a guy an opportunity with some continuity, He's 771 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 2: gotten better every year, Woul, regardless of the position he's playing. 772 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 1: But he finally locked in the position he's gonna play. 773 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 2: And now you've got arguably arguably one of the better 774 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 2: tackle duos in the NFL with tons On Howard. 775 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 6: Locked up a very good guy. 776 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,880 Speaker 1: Fince the culture, Yes, they won good one. 777 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 6: Great team. 778 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 9: Guy. 779 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 3: Well, you have a rookie quarterback here who's gonna get 780 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 3: a lot of attention, right And I know they have 781 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 3: Davis Mills in case Keenum on the squad as well, 782 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 3: but I'm not. I haven't been around as long as 783 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 3: the general, but I've been around here since the beginning 784 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 3: of this. And this was supposed to start with a 785 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 3: rookie quarterback David Carr and a Hall of Fame left 786 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 3: tackle and Tony Boselli and a really good right tackle 787 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 3: in Ryan Young, and that was gonna help the rookie 788 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 3: quarterback develop to put together a good line filling the 789 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 3: gaps from there, Steve McKinney at center. We talked to 790 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 3: him last week. It was awesome, but they were gonna 791 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 3: have a good situation. Never happened. Basselli never played. Ryan 792 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:11,719 Speaker 3: Young played a few snaps and they had to put 793 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,400 Speaker 3: Chester out at left tackle right away as a rookie. 794 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: That obviously was a big challenge, but he played forever. 795 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:20,239 Speaker 3: It was great eventually for him individually, but the team 796 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 3: struggled with the rookie quarterback. Now you have a rookie 797 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 3: quarterback possibly starting Game one. We'll get into that in 798 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 3: a moment here, But you have your tackle set and 799 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,880 Speaker 3: you have other established veterans in the middle. Here, you 800 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 3: have Kenyan Green entering year two, you have Shaq Mason here. 801 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,240 Speaker 3: We'll see what they do at center. Much better situation 802 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 3: on the line here general, as you deal with another 803 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,280 Speaker 3: rookie quarterback situation after. 804 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 9: All the instability they've had up Fron, especially with their coaches. 805 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 9: Chris Strauss has got to be guysticks real a while. 806 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 9: Can't keep changing those offensive line coaches every year. There 807 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 9: aren't questions about Kenyon Green coming off knee surgery, but 808 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 9: it's great he's not on physically unable to perform. And 809 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 9: then in the center, you know, Quizenberry started sixteen games, 810 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:10,000 Speaker 9: but they didn't trade for him two with Juice scrugs. 811 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 9: If he's not gonna start, it's not a matter of 812 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 9: if it's win. So at some point they're gonna have 813 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 9: rookie center and rookie quarterback, which I think is great. 814 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: Let him grow together. 815 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 9: Let Shack Mason and Laramie Tunsil and Titus Howard be 816 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 9: the leaders up front. And you know, the quarterback's best 817 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 9: friend is a great running game that starts with alignment 818 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 9: as well. They're gonna control so much about what goes 819 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 9: on with Bobby Sloan's offense. 820 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:41,840 Speaker 2: Larry Tunsall four years, right, Titus Howard three, Shack Mason three, 821 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 2: Kenyan Green on his rookie deal, three years left on that. 822 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: Jewe shrugs. 823 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:47,359 Speaker 2: If he's a rookie, he's got four years on that. 824 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 2: You got an opportunity with those five up front to 825 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 2: be together in front of CJ. 826 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:53,880 Speaker 1: Stroud. 827 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 2: The point of this is in going back to what 828 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 2: you just said, John about Bobby slowk And look, it's 829 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 2: first off, it's there's gonna be some some hills and valleys. 830 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,280 Speaker 1: But they're no more. Well, the offensive line stinks. 831 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,760 Speaker 2: You know when DeShawn at twenty eighteen had sixty two sacks, 832 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 2: we all looked down and went, well, you know the 833 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 2: offensive line wasn't very good in twenty eighteen. Well it wasn't. 834 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 2: Deshaun was part of those sacks too. But there are 835 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,960 Speaker 2: no excuses up front now for anybody. You've got all 836 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 2: these guys locked up, whether they're on rookie contracts or 837 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 2: they extended contracts. You've got pro bowlers up front. Shak Mason, 838 00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:26,360 Speaker 2: Laramie Tunsell and the guy and Tityus Howard, He's got 839 00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 2: pro Bowl ability. 840 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 1: You have no more excuses John upfront with that group. 841 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 9: I have a column on sports Radio six ten dot 842 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 9: com on five veterans that have to step up in 843 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:40,240 Speaker 9: camp to help them do as well as everybody expects 844 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 9: them to do. And first I have Derek Stanley Junior, 845 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:47,279 Speaker 9: but Kenyon Green second. Kenyon Green, I think you know 846 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 9: he still started what fourteen games last year. 847 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:51,719 Speaker 4: He's got a lot of proven to do. 848 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 9: But one of the reasons they brought him in was 849 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:56,799 Speaker 9: fact to do such a good run blocker, and we 850 00:36:56,840 --> 00:37:01,719 Speaker 9: saw flashes of that. So Damien Pairs Evid Singletary. I 851 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 9: think the running game piers can stay healthy is going 852 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 9: to be terrific. And when they got this bility upfront, 853 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:12,160 Speaker 9: once Green gets re established and Scrugs moves in as 854 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 9: a starting center, it'll be a strength. And if they 855 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 9: run the ball a lot like the forty nine ers do, 856 00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 9: that'll take a lot of pressure off a rookie quarterback. 857 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:23,839 Speaker 1: All right, Well, speaking up the rookie quarterback. Next hot read, 858 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 1: please CJ. 859 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:29,400 Speaker 3: Stroud signs on the team officially announced it yesterday, but 860 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:33,280 Speaker 3: the story broke before that. So general, you have Stroud 861 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 3: inked and I'm gonna ask you this every week, maybe 862 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 3: every day. How will they handle the quarterbacks? Let's go 863 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:40,799 Speaker 3: day one, two three. How do you think they do 864 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,400 Speaker 3: the reps? We saw what they did in Ota. How 865 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:44,399 Speaker 3: will they divvy them up? 866 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,400 Speaker 9: I think it'll be more of the same. To Miko 867 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:51,239 Speaker 9: toldas in that last news conference after the off season program, 868 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:55,360 Speaker 9: the starting job will play itself out. We know Stroud's 869 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:59,319 Speaker 9: gonna start. Davis Mills knows it, Case Keenham knows it, 870 00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 9: Bobby Jerrad Johnson and Demko know it. But I think 871 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 9: what they're doing, rather than annoying him before he stepped 872 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:11,280 Speaker 9: on the field like Bryce Young did a lot of times, 873 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 9: you want the veteran players to see why you're doing 874 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 9: something at a position that important. Davis Mills has buzted 875 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 9: his but for two years, taking a beating, put up 876 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:27,160 Speaker 9: with a lot of criticism, and so you know, I 877 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 9: think that they want it to be clear to the 878 00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:34,400 Speaker 9: players that Stroud is the guy. And I'm guessing it 879 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 9: might not be the laugh to the joint practices, but 880 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,920 Speaker 9: he'll get first team reps every day, and it's just 881 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 9: no matter how long they want to split them. 882 00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:45,879 Speaker 1: I know people toener. 883 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,319 Speaker 2: I listen and read a lot that happens in this city, 884 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:51,400 Speaker 2: and I got to shake my head sometimes, like, I 885 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,480 Speaker 2: don't know, it doesn't really matter to me. Like when 886 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 2: they name him the starter, I don't really care about that. 887 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 2: I just want to see him as a starter in 888 00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 2: week one. 889 00:38:58,160 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 1: So I don't know. 890 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:02,319 Speaker 2: I don't know that I have a timeframe of when 891 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:04,200 Speaker 2: I want him to be the starter. But when they 892 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:06,480 Speaker 2: come out today, do you expect him to be taking 893 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 2: the number one reps right away? 894 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 9: I think he and Mills will be splitting the number 895 00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 9: one reps. I think he may be the one that 896 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 9: takes them first. And because Mimiko's gonna get asked about 897 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 9: it every day, he knows it, and when Bobby slowk talks, 898 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,200 Speaker 9: he's going to be asked about it. They've talked in 899 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:27,440 Speaker 9: circles talking about Will Anderson Jr. They say all these 900 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 9: great things about him. We know he's starting from the 901 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 9: get go, should be their best defensive player. But they're 902 00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 9: just careful with Strout. And I don't know how much 903 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,640 Speaker 9: that's them, how much it's Strout. We can all see 904 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:46,360 Speaker 9: throw such a great ball, an easily catchable ball. You 905 00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 9: know they don't have a go to receiver yet, might 906 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 9: not have a go to receiver, might spread the wealth, 907 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:55,760 Speaker 9: but at some point he's going to have to get 908 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 9: almost all the first team reps, whether it's for the 909 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 9: first preseason game at New England, and if he starts 910 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:05,280 Speaker 9: that one, he's not coming out other than the injury, 911 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:08,640 Speaker 9: or if he plays really bad. Remember Mills played bad, 912 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 9: they benched him, brought him back, and then he played 913 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,800 Speaker 9: well the rest of his rookie year. Now strives a 914 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 9: much better prospect. But once he's in there, I don't 915 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 9: see him coming out. 916 00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 2: There were such great news coming out of today. Started 917 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,360 Speaker 2: in the morning. I was completely shocked. I said this 918 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,960 Speaker 2: to my tweet. I for some reason just didn't think 919 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:27,720 Speaker 2: it was gonna happen. I mean this late in the ballgame, 920 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 2: that Titus Howard was gonna get his extension, well deserved extension. 921 00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 2: And I said this to my tweet. That man changed positions. 922 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 2: He moved from one guard to this guard, to that tackle, 923 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:39,240 Speaker 2: to that guard, to this tackle, back to this tackle 924 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,759 Speaker 2: to this guard, and finally at twenty twenty two, he 925 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 2: got back to the position that he should have been 926 00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 2: all along. For twenty nineteen at right tackle and showed 927 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 2: what he's made of. And he and Laramie Tunsill makeup 928 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:53,160 Speaker 2: I think the best tackle duo in the league. And 929 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:55,920 Speaker 2: now they're together for the next three years at a minimum, 930 00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 2: well today or this year, and then three beyond this. 931 00:40:59,000 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 1: So four years. 932 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 2: That's such great news. And then of course John Metchi 933 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:06,560 Speaker 2: being cleared. That was we had learned that a little 934 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 2: bit after we talked to the general, but that was 935 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 2: just great stuff to hear John Metchi being back at practice. 936 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:14,759 Speaker 2: All my observations for practice, Harris Hitch, you know I've 937 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,400 Speaker 2: been doing it since twenty fourteen, and you know you 938 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:18,879 Speaker 2: need a little bit of time to get through them. 939 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:20,640 Speaker 2: But I give you nuggets on as much as I 940 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,360 Speaker 2: possibly can. It's all tough for now because it's just 941 00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:25,440 Speaker 2: a passing practice. There's not really pads going on. But 942 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 2: I did give some kudos to the defense. Defense did 943 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:29,520 Speaker 2: a great job here, Mark and I talked about that 944 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:30,319 Speaker 2: earlier in the show. 945 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:33,320 Speaker 1: So it's a good day one. It's a good start. 946 00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 1: And now you just as they say, you stacked days, baby, 947 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: you stack days. 948 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:40,400 Speaker 2: A big thanks to Jennifer joining us to the mcnairs 949 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:42,960 Speaker 2: for being on Dre for stopping by this morning to 950 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,239 Speaker 2: hang out with his radio crew to Mark. 951 00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,360 Speaker 1: To all of you for listening.
