1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Here we go, Texans. Welcome to the Tamico Ryans program.

2
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:06,000
Speaker 1: Times are tough for the Texans after losing to Denver

3
00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:09,119
Speaker 1: eighteen to fifteen and dropping to three and five with

4
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:11,880
Speaker 1: nine games left in the regular season. Now there's still

5
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 1: plenty of time to do something. But do something they must,

6
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,840
Speaker 1: and that starts Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars, a noon

7
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: kickoff on Salute to Service Day. The Jaguars winners in

8
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:26,280
Speaker 1: overtime at Vegas. Still sounds weird to say that yesterday

9
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 1: by a point. The Raiders went for two late in

10
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 1: overtime after scoring the would be equalizer or go ahead

11
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,879
Speaker 1: touchdown if they made the tube. They didn't, and that

12
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 1: was all she wrote. So the Jags committed five and three.

13
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,880
Speaker 1: They have already beaten the Texans, and a quick perusal

14
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:46,479
Speaker 1: of teams that have beaten the Texans reveal they have

15
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:47,239
Speaker 1: good records.

16
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 2: This is what it is.

17
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:51,240
Speaker 1: When you have the Rams, who they opened with at

18
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 1: six and two, you have the Buccaneers they've been on

19
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 1: a bye this week. Their six and two. You move

20
00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 1: along and you look at the Jaguars at five and three,

21
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: and then they beat the forty nine ers, who are

22
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 1: six and three, Broncos obviously seven and two, and the

23
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 1: Seahawks last night dismantled the Commanders their six and two,

24
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: and these are tremendous teams. The Texans playing close, but

25
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 1: no cigar in those outings except for the winner over

26
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: the six and three forty nine Ers. Now they have

27
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 1: an opportunity to beat a winning team on Sunday, and

28
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 1: it is crucial because it's the AFC South. You're back

29
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: in the division. You are one in one in the

30
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 1: division right now. You have games left with the Jags

31
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: on Sunday, two with the Colts, and another with the

32
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: Titans which will be a week from Sunday in Nashville.

33
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 2: We'll get to that next week.

34
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: The Texans still have the number one defense in the

35
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: league in points and yards. Now, the game against the Broncos,

36
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 1: we all saw it, we all know it. Second half offense,

37
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: you got a field goal, you went zero for seven

38
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: on third down. We talked about it with the head coach.

39
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: The biggest story of the game was losing CJ. Stroud

40
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: in the first half to a concut and we started

41
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 1: off there talking to Damico Ryans about that subject. As

42
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 1: they have to get ready for the Jags, knowing that

43
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 1: Stroud might not be available.

44
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 2: Coach, great to see it, Great to see you guys

45
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 2: will all right here we go.

46
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 1: It's Jacksonville week and we'll review the game against the Broncos.

47
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: But I wanted to start here without knowing whether your

48
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 1: quarterback is available or not, among others. How does that

49
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: affect game planning? Because you have to get started on

50
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 1: that right away.

51
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 3: As we start with game planning, we'll start with Davis, Like,

52
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 3: can we know we have to prepare as day as

53
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 3: if Davis is playing? Just having the guys in a

54
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 3: concussion protocol, as I've been here, is not many times

55
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,079
Speaker 3: that a guy's had a concussion on a Sunday and

56
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 3: played the following Sunday is just hard to pass all

57
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 3: of the steps that you need to pass.

58
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:49,519
Speaker 4: So we'll prepare and press forward. As if Davis is starting, Does.

59
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 5: It help at all Coach that A is a division team,

60
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 5: be you've already played him this year?

61
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 2: Does that help at all?

62
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 5: I know it's a few weeks ago, but does that

63
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 5: help in any way for that situation?

64
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 4: Any help I can get out taking? You know, it

65
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 4: should help.

66
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 3: That's being familiar with their defense, right, you know, the structures.

67
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 3: You know how they're going to try to attack us,

68
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 3: so it should speed up the planning process and just

69
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 3: see how these guys have adjusted what they've done differently

70
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 3: since we played them, And of course they'll look at

71
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 3: us the same as well. But it should help us

72
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 3: in our preparation. We should know the things that we

73
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 3: liked and work things that didn't work, kind of stay

74
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 3: away from him. So hopefully it speeds everything up.

75
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: If it is Davis having a full week of practice,

76
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 1: that's got to be a big help as well.

77
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 2: And the fact that he did play on Sunday against

78
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 2: the Broncos.

79
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 3: It helps a lot, you know, when you go in

80
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 3: knowing the hey, you're getting all of the reps with

81
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 3: the starters. It should help him as he preps because

82
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 3: I always believe you have to practice well to play well,

83
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 3: so for especially the quarterback position, so always tell for

84
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 3: a backup quarterback and so I think it's one of

85
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 3: the toughest jobs in the league right when you don't

86
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 3: get many of the reps. Most of your reps are

87
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 3: on scout team. You have to make sure you mimic

88
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 3: those reps and make them as realistic as possible. But

89
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 3: they're not real reps, and then has to get thrust

90
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 3: into a game at any given situation at a pretty

91
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 3: tough moment. Right, anytime you lose your starting quarterback, it's

92
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 3: tough for everybody, but you're asked to go in and

93
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 3: operate as if you're the starter. And I thought Davis

94
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 3: made some good plays, he did some good things in

95
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 3: the game.

96
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 4: I think he'll be better having a full week of work.

97
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 5: Kind of answer my question, coach, That's where I was

98
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 5: gonna go. Taking all of that into account. You kind of,

99
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 5: you know, coming in as a middle reliever in some sense,

100
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 5: you know, as opposed to a starter, and that offensively,

101
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 5: once Davis went in, What did you see when you

102
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 5: went back and you looked at the films?

103
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 2: Good things, some things you gotta work on.

104
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:37,359
Speaker 5: What did you What did you find out as you

105
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 5: went back and looked at it again after the game?

106
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, as I watched the film, I thought, you know,

107
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,479
Speaker 3: there were times he made some good, good throws, good

108
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 3: decisions with the football, made some really nice hell conversions.

109
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 3: And there are other times I thought, you know, where

110
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 3: he could kind of slow it down. He's kind of

111
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 3: going through this progression a little too fast. I think

112
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 3: he can slow it down, and we have some other

113
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 3: opportunities there that I know he would want back. Some

114
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 3: third down opportunities. We had one down the middle to

115
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 3: Christian that I thought we could hit on third and

116
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 3: fifteen and another one adulting there in the strike zone area,

117
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 3: which I think we get a better ball, better time

118
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:11,600
Speaker 3: in there.

119
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 4: I think we can make both of those third down plays.

120
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 2: There were four sacks.

121
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: One of them I don't know if that was a

122
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 1: sack or not, but whatever, but we were noticing that

123
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,720
Speaker 1: the protection was there. There was a clean pocket much

124
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: of the time to make throws for sure.

125
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 3: I thought overall throughout the entire game, I thought the

126
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 3: O line protected really well. And this we knew it

127
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 3: would be a heavy pressure outfit. They guys did a

128
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 3: really good job the pick stunts, the back stepped up

129
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 3: and protect like we handled their games and pressures well.

130
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 3: They got us a couple of times. They were good

131
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:40,799
Speaker 3: D line, so they got us a couple of times.

132
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 3: But overall, I felt like our quarterbacks had time. We

133
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,919
Speaker 3: weren't under a ton of duress. We had time to

134
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 3: go through our reeds and make plays defensively.

135
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 5: As you watch the film, Coach they they score on

136
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 5: those two drives, and obviously they get the one at

137
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 5: the very end, and the bo escaping and making that

138
00:05:59,040 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 5: play getting out.

139
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 2: From the path for something he hadn't done much throughout

140
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 2: the game.

141
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 5: In fact, he had thrown it a couple times earlier

142
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 5: when he had kind of gotten out there. As you

143
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 5: went back and watched the defense, would you think as

144
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,840
Speaker 5: you as you looked at it, we talked about in

145
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 5: the broadcast, it just felt like the defense was.

146
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 2: Just hanging on and hanging on and hanging on and

147
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 2: hanging on and.

148
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 5: Doing a great job with its effort to make sure

149
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 5: that they didn't score any points to give the offense

150
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,919
Speaker 5: to opportunity, and then finally this damn broke the last minute.

151
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 3: Your thoughts, Yeah, defensively, you know, overall, really, you know,

152
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 3: solid performance by those guys, and you gotta finish right,

153
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 3: And that's the one thing like I felt like we

154
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 3: could have finished much better on the defensive side of

155
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,600
Speaker 3: the ball. Like, you know, we rushed okay most of

156
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 3: the game, and then that one critical moment where we're

157
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 3: not having the lane discipline that we should have and

158
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 3: we allow this huge a B gap escape knowing that

159
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 3: you know, that's what the quarterback liked to do. So

160
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 3: had him in check most of the game, but in

161
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,839
Speaker 3: a critical time and the crunch time when it mattered most,

162
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 3: and you have to be able to remain disciplined. Rush

163
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 3: how we're supposed to rush coverage, not over pursuing, staying

164
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 3: where we are in coverage, and we should be in

165
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 3: position to make the quarterback have to dish the football

166
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 3: right there. So, I mean we had some play we

167
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 3: had some one on one opportunities where they scored on us,

168
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 3: they made a play. We got to find a way

169
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 3: to make those plays. A couple of times they did

170
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 3: get into the end zone the two point conversion, Like,

171
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 3: we got to find a way to make the play.

172
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 3: We're we're in position, yep, now can we go make

173
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 3: those plays?

174
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: How about Klen's pick and Derek almost had one which

175
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 1: would have been incredible. It was a great play as

176
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: it was that pass breakup over the million.

177
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 3: Yeah really, Kaylin, that's what he does well right when

178
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 3: he can patrol the middle and we are playing single

179
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 3: high coverage and the ball is up expecting him to hey,

180
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 3: you can go, you know, sideline and sideline making plays.

181
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 3: That's what he showed he showed his range, he showed

182
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 3: his capability. They're outstanding play by him. And then Stingley,

183
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 3: you know, on his play it was a man great

184
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 3: job by him. Were coming from the backside all the

185
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 3: way over to try to make that play. Just wanted

186
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 3: to tell hey, go attack it. Be more aggressive with

187
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 3: your hands, get your hands up, attack the football. That

188
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 3: was a great job breaking the pass up.

189
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean that was that was incredible play. Another

190
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 5: incredible play coach. That came up big after Kaymie missed

191
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 5: that one. On the first first drive, they come down,

192
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 5: they get in a field goal position, Daniko Autry blocks

193
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 5: another one, and I thought what was telling about it

194
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 5: was the fact that when you read Sempaygnon's quotes throughout

195
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 5: the week, he was very aware of the fact that

196
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 5: Denico Autry had blocked a lot of fuel goals.

197
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 2: And yet there's the first one being kicked and he

198
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 2: blocked that fuel goal.

199
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 5: How big was that to kind of get things started,

200
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 5: to not give them a three to nothing lead after

201
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 5: you had that long first offensive drive.

202
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 4: Oh, that was huge.

203
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 3: That was man, we needed at that moment of the game,

204
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 3: like to drive as long as we had the first

205
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 3: drive right and to come away with nothing.

206
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 4: To show for that. That really sucked.

207
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 3: And then so for them to drive down and to

208
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 3: turn a round and block a field go man, we

209
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 3: needed that, so it was like a big all right,

210
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 3: let's take a deep breath, reset, All right, let's go

211
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 3: all right, now we're back. So really, Daniel May, I mean,

212
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Denico.

213
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 4: Is the best I've.

214
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 3: Seen blocking field goals. I mean, he's blocking more kicks

215
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 3: than I've ever seen in my career. He just has

216
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 3: a great knack for getting in the right position and

217
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 3: he doesn't duel without the help of the other guys

218
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 3: around him. Mario did a great job. Tim Settle did

219
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 3: a great job as well, giving him we call it

220
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 3: Ali oop the assists so he can go up and

221
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 3: block it. But he has a fantastic knack for making

222
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 3: those big plays.

223
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: Coach, the game began with that long drive. He ate

224
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 1: up a half a quarter and yeah, you missed the

225
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 1: field goal. But it felt kind of like last week, like, Okay,

226
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 1: you can control this game even with field goals. I

227
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 1: know you want to punch it in. We can talk

228
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,680
Speaker 1: about that and those close goal to go situations, but

229
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: you were able to move the football well when CJ

230
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 1: was in there, you saw a lot of good things

231
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:48,439
Speaker 1: in that department.

232
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, I saw a lot of good things. Man. We

233
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 4: started a game really well.

234
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 3: CJ was doing a really great job, making great decisions,

235
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 3: great throws, and you can tell it was going to.

236
00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 4: Be another one of those games. How similar to the

237
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 4: nin game.

238
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 3: Felt like we had control, We can move the ball

239
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 3: at will, doing the things that we wanted to do

240
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,439
Speaker 3: so and I was just unfortunate, man, when you lose

241
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 3: your your starting quarterback, it's just unfortunate to see CJ

242
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 3: go down the way he went down with a concussion.

243
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 3: Knowing the type of game that I felt like he

244
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 3: was going to have, it was going to be a

245
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 3: big day for him.

246
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 5: Dalton Schultz was a guy who had a big game

247
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 5: coach and has he's had him this year.

248
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 2: He makes the big play, CJ. That's a dime.

249
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 5: I mean, that was an incredible throw where he split

250
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 5: the safety and linebacker with that throw. But it feels

251
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 5: like Dalton's been giving you some really good reps no

252
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,320
Speaker 5: matter where he lines up on the offense. Having him back,

253
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 5: I know we missed him in practice, but he's able

254
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,319
Speaker 5: to practice Friday and then play in the game on Sunday.

255
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 2: How big was he and how big has he been

256
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 2: for your offense?

257
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 3: Coach, Yeah, Dalton's been really really huge for offense, seeing

258
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:50,560
Speaker 3: that he's a guy you talk about trustworthy. Right, He's

259
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 3: exactly where he's supposed to be on his routes. Like,

260
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,680
Speaker 3: you get him the ball, he has sure hands to

261
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 3: catch it, right. He continues to make positive plays, move

262
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 3: the chains like, he's friendly, real friendly to the quarterback right.

263
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 3: He's gonna find that soft spot on his own even

264
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 3: if he's between two defenders.

265
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 4: He just knows how to position himself.

266
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 3: He knows how to be in sync with the quarterback

267
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 3: right to give him a friendly target.

268
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 4: So he's been man.

269
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 3: He's been clutch for us, making some big plays, big conversions,

270
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 3: being able to move the chains.

271
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 4: He's having an outstanding year.

272
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 2: Coach.

273
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 1: In the preseason training camp, you talked a lot about

274
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 1: delegation and that kind of thing. What can you share

275
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 1: with us because we get questions how involved you get

276
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 1: an offensive game planning with Nick Careley? Do you guys

277
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: meet a lot about this is your philosophy there? I mean,

278
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 1: obviously it is, but how do you combine and collaborate

279
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 1: on those kinds of things.

280
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 2: What can you tell us about it?

281
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 4: Yeah?

282
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 3: For me is I'm watching you know, film throughout the week,

283
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 3: just watching all three phases, and I'm just watching our

284
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,320
Speaker 3: opponent and seeing really what they struggle with as I

285
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 3: look at it from you know, all perspective, looking at

286
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 3: from offensive perspective, like what is his defense like struggling with?

287
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 3: And can we put them in those situations again? Because

288
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,400
Speaker 3: I always believe you got to show a team like

289
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,119
Speaker 3: have they fixed their issues?

290
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 6: Right?

291
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 3: And that's when I step in and I'm just asking

292
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 3: guys throughout the game plan process like hey, have we

293
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:11,719
Speaker 3: looked at this particular route? Have we looked at this

294
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 3: particular run? I see these things have given this defense trouble,

295
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 3: and these are some things that I think we should implement.

296
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 3: Guys probably already ahead of that on memes like yeah,

297
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,679
Speaker 3: we have this in and that end. So that's so

298
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 3: I just come from the perspective of all phases like

299
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 3: I see this team struggling and whatever area, let's continue

300
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 3: to attack them in the area I was I.

301
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 2: Was a little mad at you yesterday, coach.

302
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 5: From the standpoint of I'm watching telling all hufanga and

303
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,320
Speaker 5: I'm watching Drake Greenlaw and I'm watching them make plays,

304
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 5: I'm like, damn, why did coach coach them so well

305
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 5: in San Francisco.

306
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 2: But this happens a.

307
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 5: Lot where you do see players you've coached before, but

308
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 5: then you see them on the other side and they're

309
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 5: making plays against you. What are you kind of feeling

310
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 5: when you see that? I mean, obviously you want Texans

311
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 5: to win and you are not good, yeah, but I

312
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 5: just like to see those guys that you spend so

313
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 5: much time with that you helped become even better NFL

314
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 5: players make those plays against you.

315
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 4: In this case, I'm max like, why are we not

316
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 4: blocking these guys.

317
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:09,839
Speaker 2: Like they're good player?

318
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 3: So no, it was just good to see those guys

319
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 3: dre and and and Huff, the two guys that drafted

320
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 3: out in San Francisco, and to see them just continue

321
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 3: to do well in their careers, go to a different,

322
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 3: different place and still be impact players. It's always good

323
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,839
Speaker 3: to see that they're doing well. And that's the reason

324
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 3: I got into coaching, is to help players, and you know,

325
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 3: knowing that I had a positive impact on those guys,

326
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 3: those are the first two guys who came up to

327
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 3: me after the game right to shake my hands. So

328
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 3: I'm you know, I'm thankful for those guys and what

329
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,679
Speaker 3: they how they play. They played the game the right way,

330
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,959
Speaker 3: and that's what that's what you will see from hopefully guys.

331
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 3: I've impacted that they played the game with the relentless nature,

332
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 3: hair on.

333
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 4: Fire type play style, and that's what Huff and Dre represent.

334
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 2: Absolutely coach back to the offense for a moment.

335
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 1: You got Kirk back and Nico back, and they weren't

336
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: in the game last week, but here you have all

337
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 1: these playmakers. How tough is it to decide who gets

338
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 1: the reps, who gets the ball. I know, you want

339
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 1: to be better on third down so you have more

340
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,559
Speaker 1: of those opportunities. Is that really a big part of it?

341
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 1: You know, if those drives continue, you have a rotation

342
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 1: of sorts going into it, more guys get touches, that

343
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 1: kind of thing.

344
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, we want to get the ball to

345
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 3: our best players, right We got to find a way

346
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 3: right now. We got to find a way to get

347
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 3: Nico the ball even more. I feel like we could

348
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 3: have got it to them on the outside more, just

349
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 3: giving them more shots down field. Finding the way Ck

350
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 3: was open. You know, a lot. I just got to

351
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 3: be able to make the throw. So it's all everybody

352
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 3: working together there. I think we had a good rotation

353
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 3: of guys, and then you want to see the young

354
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 3: guys get the ball as well because they've done a

355
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 3: good job.

356
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 4: You know, Ja Nole and Jay Higgins have both done

357
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 4: good job as well. So we have skilled players who

358
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 4: can make plays right.

359
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 3: It's just a matter of everybody being on the same page,

360
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 3: being in sync and making the plays that we're we

361
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 3: can make, especially in those third down, those reds, on

362
00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 3: those situational moments where I feel like we we have

363
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 3: to exceale and we have to be better.

364
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: Another thing about the quarterback position. If CJ can't go

365
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: Mills on stage and then Mertz has to get ready

366
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 1: as well. He gets ready every week, I'm sure, but

367
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 1: that puts him a step ahead. What about his progress

368
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 1: in practice, because we don't hear about him for good reason,

369
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 1: but he looked good in the preseason. He's on the

370
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 1: fifty three man roster. What can you tell us about

371
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 1: his product?

372
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 3: Well, Mertz in practice, what he does is him and

373
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 3: Davis they alternate reps during the scout team period, so

374
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 3: they go against our defense during all the reps versus

375
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 3: our defense. So Mertz gets in and he's done a

376
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 3: solid job. But some sometimes we're asking him to just hey,

377
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 3: we want to throw the ball here to make sure

378
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 3: the corner or safety gets a proper look. But most

379
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 3: of the time we allow him just to read the

380
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 3: plays out. So they're getting real reps as well. So

381
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 3: you know, it'll be uh, it'll be a big week

382
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 3: for him as well. Now he'll get even more reps.

383
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 3: But David's taking all of the one reps with our offense,

384
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 3: so Mertzi get a lot of time, you know, going

385
00:15:58,480 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 3: against our defense.

386
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: Do you want your scout team quarterback to be surgical

387
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 1: and really you want them to get after the defense.

388
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 3: Please be competitive, Please get after the defense as best

389
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 3: as you can.

390
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 4: We want to rip it.

391
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 3: And we wanted up making great decisions knowing that they're

392
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 3: training themselves for when they may have an opportunity to

393
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 3: go into the game. And you know, I go back

394
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 3: to an example when I was in San Francisco, Man

395
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 3: brock Purty, he he threaded the ball. He tore us

396
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 3: up as a Scout team quarterback, right, and that's when

397
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 3: you saw, like, man, this kid really has something because

398
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 3: he was i mean throwing sidearm throws, he was moving

399
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 3: out of the part. He was doing a lot of

400
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 3: great things. So if you take those reps with a

401
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 3: deliberate mindset like you can get better. And Brock has

402
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,560
Speaker 3: shown that. Hey, if you do it the right way here,

403
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 3: you can progress and he can be a starting quarterback.

404
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 5: Coach Titus went out of game bast somewhere in the

405
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 5: second quarter and then leading up half time.

406
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 2: One of the things you've done really well is use

407
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 2: the six.

408
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 5: Offensive line, six offensive line men, with Blake Fisher being

409
00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 5: that six guy. But now Blake's got to jump in

410
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 5: at right tackle and you really aren't able to go

411
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 5: your six offensive lineman group. Did that impact you in

412
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,840
Speaker 5: the second half at all, not having tightests such that

413
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:08,880
Speaker 5: you could use Blake in that six offensive linean role.

414
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, we've liked that package.

415
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 3: Put us in position to run the football, feeling like

416
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 3: we had an advantage there running the ball and also

417
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 3: protecting if we want to go play action pass. But

418
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 3: you know, we lost tight ends. Don't want to lose tightens. Hey, Blake, Hey,

419
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 3: step up, man, let's go. This is your time, Nashan,

420
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 3: Let's get out there and let's go. That doesn't mean

421
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 3: we can't run the football now, it's just more tight ends.

422
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 3: You know, we use Harrison, used Dalton a little bit more.

423
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 3: We use British and the tight end spot as well.

424
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:38,160
Speaker 3: A couple couple run plays, so we can still run

425
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 3: our offense and we can run it and run in.

426
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 3: Everything is at our disposal. Even though Titus went out

427
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 3: and Blake had a step end.

428
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 1: Coach, what about special teams? He had some moments against

429
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 1: the Broncos. Bandy had the ball bounce off and then

430
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,159
Speaker 1: Jalen Smith recovers. He had Jailing Nole's big return. You

431
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,280
Speaker 1: almost got the ball down at the one yard line

432
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:57,880
Speaker 1: as well. What about the third phase there?

433
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought our special teams played really good football, right.

434
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,199
Speaker 3: I thought they put us in position to win the

435
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 3: football game, right, Jay Nole with a huge return. Really

436
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 3: Higgins with the outstanding I call it hit by block right,

437
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 3: not getting a penal there? Really clean block there. The

438
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:19,160
Speaker 3: spring and four man our gunners, I mean Jalen Smith

439
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,639
Speaker 3: and Treymont like those guys, they cover the field.

440
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,400
Speaker 4: They cover a lot of ground. They've made a lot

441
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 4: of plays.

442
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 3: Treymond does a great job, but down in the ball

443
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 3: had an outstanding to play school get out of the way.

444
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:31,680
Speaker 4: Maybe we got the ball there at.

445
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,680
Speaker 3: The one yard line, but that was an excellent play

446
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 3: by him to throw it back in even give us

447
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,159
Speaker 3: a chance. But play had to play with the field

448
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 3: goal unit like getting a field goal block. Special teams

449
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:43,639
Speaker 3: had a huge impact on this game.

450
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:47,959
Speaker 5: Coach, this is not just relating to one play, and

451
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 5: you may know the one I'm relating to, but this

452
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,639
Speaker 5: seemed to happen a number of times yesterday where there

453
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:57,159
Speaker 5: were a flager, multiple flags thrown and then at some

454
00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:01,880
Speaker 5: point picked up. When that happened, and what's the communication

455
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 5: that you get from the officials. Do they immediately come

456
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 5: to you say the flag is thrown on the other

457
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 5: team and all we're gonna pick it up. Do they

458
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 5: come over to explain to you exactly why that flag

459
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 5: is being picked up even though their eyes saw something

460
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 5: to be able to throw the flag. Do they come

461
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:18,959
Speaker 5: over to you. Do you ask for them to come

462
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 5: over and talk to you about those certain situations.

463
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,679
Speaker 3: Sometimes they talk about why it was picked up, and

464
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 3: sometimes they don't. Sometimes they would explain it over the loudspeaker,

465
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 3: but sometimes you know we don't get an explanation immediately

466
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:32,440
Speaker 3: about what happen.

467
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 4: You have to ask. But trying not to be stressed

468
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:36,919
Speaker 4: out about these off.

469
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 3: It can be you know, it could be trying and

470
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 3: it could be you know, that third phase of the

471
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,400
Speaker 3: game where you see something and you think, hey, did

472
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 3: you did did they see the same thing? And it's

473
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 3: like some calls you think it's like holding and it's

474
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 3: how the quarterback gets hit.

475
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:55,640
Speaker 4: It's just so.

476
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 3: Many things that ends up being out of your control. Sure,

477
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 3: and they throw it, they throw it. If I tell

478
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,160
Speaker 3: the guys all the time, it's like they hardly ever

479
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 3: have I seen a real pick up a flag because

480
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 3: you're arguing with them or you know, you're you know,

481
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 3: losing your mind on the ref it's like, oh, you

482
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 3: know what, you're right, I'm gonna pick that flat.

483
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:19,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, that never happened. So I'm trying to save myself there.

484
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 5: But the communications is key because I saw at one point,

485
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 5: and it was near the end of the first half,

486
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 5: and I saw you, Like there are a lot of

487
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 5: times when I used to get in trouble, my dad

488
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:30,399
Speaker 5: would look at me and he gives this sign like

489
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,400
Speaker 5: you know, I'm watching you and I saw you get

490
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,440
Speaker 5: outside to the official. I thought, why is he mad

491
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,439
Speaker 5: at that official? Not I realized what it was, and

492
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,400
Speaker 5: that was, hey, you need to look at me if I.

493
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 4: Want to get a time out, Oh for sure.

494
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:42,359
Speaker 2: Yeah.

495
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 5: And you were talking to the back judge and he

496
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,399
Speaker 5: kind of nodded, and I was kind of like, okay,

497
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,880
Speaker 5: I was wondering with that, and then I realized, oh, keep

498
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,879
Speaker 5: your eyes on you for play is over for a

499
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:51,199
Speaker 5: time out.

500
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,120
Speaker 3: Yeah. Anytime I looking to get a quick time, I

501
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,360
Speaker 3: always want to talk to the back judge because the

502
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,640
Speaker 3: line judge is trying to look for the spot. So

503
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 3: just what I've learned is, hey, hey, forget the lines

504
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 3: of look to the back jug Hey, just make sure

505
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:04,719
Speaker 3: you're watching me here.

506
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 4: I may want to bang a time yea.

507
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 1: Hey, coach, take us through the end of the game,

508
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,639
Speaker 1: because the last possession you had, I really felt like

509
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,399
Speaker 1: you're just trying to move the football. We got to

510
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 1: move the football here at least get first downs if

511
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 1: nothing else. Is that how you looked at it?

512
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 4: Yeah?

513
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 3: How I looked at that possession is hey, we got

514
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 3: the ball back, we got a little bit over a

515
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 3: minute left. Hey, let's get our two minute drive going,

516
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,160
Speaker 3: which I felt like we've been good in two minute situations,

517
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,719
Speaker 3: so I feel like, you know, start, let's get easy completetion.

518
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:33,920
Speaker 3: We ended up getting a completion there to on the

519
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 3: second down, we end up getting a completion to Higgins

520
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:37,919
Speaker 3: on the sideline.

521
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 4: We were out of bounds.

522
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 3: But I was looking at let's let's move the ball down,

523
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 3: let's get let's get anywhere across midfield, like to give

524
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 3: us a shot at kicking a field goal to end

525
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,400
Speaker 3: the game. Like I'm trying to win the game there,

526
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:57,640
Speaker 3: and you know, it didn't go how we wanted to go.

527
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,160
Speaker 3: It went, you know, too quick with incompletion on first

528
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 3: and then incompletion and we got out of bounds on

529
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 3: the second one and then the incompletion on third. It's

530
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 3: just we didn't people, you didn't We didn't burn enough time.

531
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 3: But hey, we punt the football, we go play defense

532
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 3: like defense, let's be We're supposed to be defenses, play

533
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 3: stout all day. So it's a point in my mind

534
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 3: where okay, hey, oh, the defense isn't playing great, so

535
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,439
Speaker 3: let's just send this to overthre Like, no, let's go

536
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:27,760
Speaker 3: down and let's finish it. The defense is played great

537
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 3: all day. Now we got in that position. Defense, let's

538
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,159
Speaker 3: do a great job be supposed to be or main discipline,

539
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 3: and let's get a stop.

540
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,360
Speaker 2: I would imagine coach playing inside.

541
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 5: This is maybe more consistent information, But at the end

542
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 5: of half, end of game situation, how cognizant are you of? Okay,

543
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 5: we got to get to this yard line. Kimie feels

544
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,399
Speaker 5: like he can hit it from X. I suppose outside

545
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 5: you gotta deal with the wind and okay, well, in

546
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 5: the win you might do this, but I would imagine

547
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:57,120
Speaker 5: inside there's not really much that going on. How much

548
00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 5: are you congnizant of Okay, we got to get to

549
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 5: this yard line. That's where he feels comfortable getting to

550
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 5: right hash left has to all that.

551
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 2: How much are you kind of playing that in your

552
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:06,400
Speaker 2: mind as you're thinking on the last drive?

553
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 3: Oh, that's always in my mind from the start of

554
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,879
Speaker 3: the game. Always want to get a feel for, you know,

555
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 3: how not only Emy warmed up.

556
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 4: But also the other kid.

557
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 3: So we're watching both guys and see, hey, what's been

558
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,640
Speaker 3: their best as they were warming up throughout the game,

559
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 3: So we know the ranges, we know the longest of

560
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 3: where they hit as they warmed up, so we know

561
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 3: what y are line that we're defending. We know what

562
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,160
Speaker 3: yard line we're trying to get to as an offense.

563
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,359
Speaker 3: So you know they're at their points, like get it

564
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 3: anywhere close right inside the forty five, and we're going

565
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:37,680
Speaker 3: to try to attempt.

566
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 2: It this week. It's the fifty, right, the Jacks coming em.

567
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 1: He can kick it a long way too, So you

568
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 1: got two great ones going at it. Quick thoughts on

569
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 1: the Jaguars coach, because obviously you've seen them before and

570
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,480
Speaker 1: it was not that long ago. What about a brief

571
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 1: report on them?

572
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, just with the Jay Wars I think again, Liam

573
00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 3: has done a really good job, right, really turning over

574
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,159
Speaker 3: the culture of that team. Right, they've been finding a

575
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 3: way to win games, like they're doing a really good job.

576
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 3: Their defense is playing outstanding. They attacked the football and

577
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 3: they found a way to move it with Trevor, they

578
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 3: found a way to score points. And field goal kicker,

579
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 3: as you mentioned, just hit the longest one in the

580
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,359
Speaker 3: history of the NFL. It was the sixty eight yards,

581
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:23,680
Speaker 3: so it's long kick. Hopefully Denico is ready to block

582
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 3: another one, al right.

583
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 1: The Amagy Bank ask coach question of the week. I'm

584
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: not sure if I asked you this last year, but

585
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it. All right, it's salute to service day, Coach.

586
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 1: You have to pick a branch of the armed services

587
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 1: to be in. Is it Navy, Army, Air Force, Marines?

588
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 1: Should I throw in Coast Guard too?

589
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 2: Yeah? One of those five, coach man, which.

590
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 4: Is going to upset someone here.

591
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,919
Speaker 3: But because I got so many, a lot of family

592
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 3: members that are a lot of different branches of the service. Uh,

593
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,920
Speaker 3: but I I'm gonna roll my brother in law.

594
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say the Army. My brother in law a

595
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 4: green beret in the Army.

596
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 3: So wow, Yeah, he's impressed me by what he's capable

597
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 3: of doing. Now my brother is gonna be My brother

598
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 3: was in a Navy. Yeah, a mother in law air.

599
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 4: Force me, so I got a lot of my uncle's

600
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 4: in army as well. My dad air Force. So I

601
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:17,159
Speaker 4: got a wow.

602
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 2: It's a special day.

603
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 3: You hit them all man. My dad probably mad at me.

604
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,359
Speaker 3: Dad with no Air Force.

605
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:26,959
Speaker 2: All right, coach, thanks a lu goodluck this week.

606
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: Yes, all right, there's the head coach, but we have

607
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 1: more coming up with him, Johnny and Demico. After the game.

608
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: We also have Kamari Lassiter coming up on the show.

609
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: He was a guest on Texans post game with Sean

610
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 1: Pendergast and Clint Sterner. That's all coming up here on

611
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,880
Speaker 1: Texans Radio, The TMICO Ryan Show, brought to you by

612
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: Amigy Bank, the official business bank of the Houston Texans,

613
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 1: and the Texans clearly not doing enough business in the

614
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 1: offensive end of Denver in an eighteen to fifteen loss.

615
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: Kind of a weird score, but that's what you're gonna

616
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,679
Speaker 1: get when you kick a lot of field goals. Denver

617
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 1: had field goals and the two point conversion.

618
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:03,119
Speaker 2: You all know that.

619
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,919
Speaker 1: Let's see two point conversion plus the two touchdowns and

620
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 1: one field goal the one at the end by Lutsi

621
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 1: had one blocked by Deniko Autrey. We went over that

622
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,359
Speaker 1: with the head coach. In the last segment, now worth

623
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,919
Speaker 1: bringing up. We mentioned the Texans still number one in

624
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:21,359
Speaker 1: the league in defense, points and yards. Another head scratcher here,

625
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,159
Speaker 1: and the only reason that is a head scratcher is

626
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 1: because the Texans are three and five. With the defense

627
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 1: like that, you would think the record would be better.

628
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,159
Speaker 1: I mentioned the records of the teams they've lost to,

629
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 1: but that's not going to make anybody feel any better.

630
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,479
Speaker 1: The Texans in turnover marchin are right where they need

631
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,679
Speaker 1: to be. They're sixth in the league. You look at

632
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:42,440
Speaker 1: that number plus six on the season, and that's after

633
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 1: getting off to a slow start in the takeaway department,

634
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 1: and they are now fourth in interceptions in the NFL.

635
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 1: After killing Bullock had his on bo Nicks in the

636
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,919
Speaker 1: game against Denver. Well after the game, Kamari Lasser, who

637
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:57,880
Speaker 1: had a big pick last week in the victory over

638
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 1: San Francisco, visited with Sean Pendergast and Clint Sterner on

639
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 1: Texans post game and they got into a variety of subjects.

640
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,360
Speaker 1: Following the game against Denver.

641
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 7: Kamar, a tough one today, man, And I know that

642
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 7: you know that's that's two great defenses going at it

643
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:13,439
Speaker 7: you guys in Denver. Is that is that kind of

644
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,760
Speaker 7: the street fight that you guys expected expected today?

645
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 8: Yes, sir, I mean, you know, I feel like going

646
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 8: into it it's always the Texans versus the Broncos. But internally,

647
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,640
Speaker 8: you know, me as competitor, I heard the noise about

648
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 8: their defense being very good. I'm like, dang, at the

649
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 8: end of Jay, it's our defense. Versus theirs, and you know,

650
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 8: the score was eighteen to fifteen, So the defense one today.

651
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:35,679
Speaker 9: Hey, Kamar, when you look at kind of how the

652
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 9: game unfolded with with Denver's offense, it seemed to me

653
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 9: and I thought this coming into the game, that Sean

654
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 9: was going to come in and where most teams will

655
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 9: probably kind of buckle down and maybe be a little

656
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,679
Speaker 9: more conservative because y'all are so good upfront, it seemed

657
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,399
Speaker 9: like Sean Payton and Denver's plan was We're going to

658
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 9: drop back and take shots. Is that did y'all expect that?

659
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 9: Is that what you felt? And how'd you feel the

660
00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,399
Speaker 9: game went up with in terms of defending that?

661
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:00,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, I definitely think that.

662
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,120
Speaker 8: You know, they're very confident in their operation, their players,

663
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,160
Speaker 8: quarterback and receivers. I mean, they had a really good

664
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,120
Speaker 8: receiving corps, a good old line, they have a really

665
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 8: good offense. So I feel like they were confident in

666
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 8: what they have, just the same way that we were

667
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 8: confident in our defense. So I mean, I feel like

668
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 8: whenever they go up and take shots, it's you know,

669
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 8: on the outside, it's him versus me. On the other

670
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 8: side with Sting is Sting versus him our safeties is

671
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 8: you know, so I feel like that's what the game

672
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,160
Speaker 8: is all about. It's NFL football. You're going to see

673
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 8: who's going to make the plays. And they took some shots,

674
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,679
Speaker 8: they didn't complete most of them, and then they changed up,

675
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,360
Speaker 8: you know, their approach and which is that they're.

676
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,560
Speaker 7: Just what did you expect the biggest challenge to be

677
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 7: from Denver coming in today?

678
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 8: I expected the biggest challenge for was because I played

679
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 8: bow knicks in college.

680
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I expected the biggest.

681
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 8: Challenge was for him to be extending plays and you know,

682
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 8: him kind of getting out or just kind of not

683
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 8: really getting out because I know our D line is hunting,

684
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 8: but just him trying to extend plays and just you know,

685
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 8: just chucking the ball downfield on plasters.

686
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 4: But he did a little bit of that. But our

687
00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 4: D line they played very well.

688
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 9: You know, how frustrating is it because this is similar

689
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 9: to the Tampa game, right is where you guys haven't

690
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 9: bottled up pretty much all game long and then just

691
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 9: bot one quarterback scramble and they're in field goal range

692
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 9: and we're in trouble in the games over. How frustrating

693
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 9: is that?

694
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 2: Talk?

695
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 9: Talk walk us through because I think as as radio

696
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 9: guys and his fans, you look at it, you go, well,

697
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 9: damn it, they just he got bow knicks got loose.

698
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 9: But walk us through kind of y'all's approach to trying

699
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:25,600
Speaker 9: to bottle him up and kind of what you saw

700
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 9: happen on that play.

701
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, So, I mean it was two minutes. It was

702
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:29,200
Speaker 4: a two minute drive.

703
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 8: You know, the games in our hands, just like it

704
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 8: was kind of last week, and just knowing that we

705
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 8: had to play coverage. You know, they had a really

706
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,120
Speaker 8: good kicker number three. Let's so we were defending a

707
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 8: specific yard line, so we had to play tight coverage

708
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 8: and you know, we're playing coverage and he just kind

709
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 8: of he just got out. It was just one of

710
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,120
Speaker 8: those plays where he got out. He made a good play,

711
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 8: he had good awareness, he saw a whole within the

712
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 8: D line up front, and he got out, use his legs,

713
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 8: something that he's been doing for a very long time,

714
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 8: and he got the yards needed and then you know,

715
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:58,960
Speaker 8: they kind of melted it down the clock. We still

716
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 8: had two timeouts and they got the yards that they needed.

717
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 8: Just to make sure that the cure was super comfortable

718
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 8: and did the game.

719
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 7: Three and five now about a halfway through the season.

720
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 7: Obviously there's a lot of season left to be played.

721
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 7: What was the talk in the locker room after the game.

722
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 8: You gotta look yourself in the mirror. Starts with me, like,

723
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 8: I gotta look myself in the mirror. Did I play

724
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 8: well enough to help us win the game? And we

725
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,560
Speaker 8: didn't win? So I didn't So I have to go home,

726
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 8: watch this film, look myself in the mirror and be like,

727
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 8: what can I do? What more can I do? Like

728
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 8: that's the that's the emphasis. What more can you do? Internally?

729
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 8: Like as a player, as a coach, support staff, it

730
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:32,720
Speaker 8: doesn't matter, Like what can you do more in the building?

731
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 8: And it starts with myself, like I have to look internally,

732
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 8: watch the film, how can I be more on every detail?

733
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 8: Like nine tackles, a couple of passpreak ups. It doesn't matter,

734
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 8: you know, because we lost the game. So I gave

735
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 8: up a catch. What can I do to not give

736
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 8: that up? What can I do not to give up

737
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:48,440
Speaker 8: those eleven yards and keep us?

738
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 4: You know?

739
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 8: So it's just I have to go and just look

740
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 8: in the mirror, and I know that we have a

741
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 8: group of guys an organization who are all feeling the

742
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 8: same way from the front end to the back end

743
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 8: where it's offensive defense. So I know we're gonna come

744
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:00,959
Speaker 8: in and go to work, assess the film. You know,

745
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 8: go to the doctor's office. That's what we say in Georgia.

746
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 8: Go to the doctors and you just kind of you

747
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 8: patch up yourself and you get better. I mean, we

748
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:10,920
Speaker 8: got another game next week, so that's the beauty of it,

749
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 8: and we just got to take advantage of the opportunity.

750
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 9: Hey, speaking of speaking a doctor's office, I know you

751
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 9: obviously don't can't speak to concussions and too, CJ. Stroud,

752
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 9: but just can you take us through that moment? And

753
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 9: I mean, I know those teams is really tight knit man,

754
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 9: y'all are y'all are close and to have something like

755
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 9: that go on number one and then number two, if

756
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 9: I mean, have you talked to CJ?

757
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 2: Have you seen him? And is he is he doing okay?

758
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 4: Yeah? I mean I saw him walk out first.

759
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 8: I mean, obviously I'm frustrated as my quarterback, but forget that,

760
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 8: like CJ is one of my he's one of my

761
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 8: my partners, So you know, just seeing one of my

762
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 8: guys go down in general, and like it's bigger than football,

763
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 8: you know, So just seeing him not move for a second,

764
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 8: that made my heart stop, you know, because at the

765
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 8: end of the day, he's got to go back home

766
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 8: to his family. I mean, I get his football, but

767
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 8: you know, you're supposed to protect the quarterbacks in this

768
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 8: league and and you know I'm not here to, you know,

769
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 8: but it's just like just seeing one of the guys

770
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 8: go down that that made my heart stop in general,

771
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 8: but just to see him get up and you know,

772
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:04,800
Speaker 8: give him thumbs up, and I saw him in the

773
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 8: locker room. He was like he was in better spirits.

774
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 8: But I mean it affected the team as a whole,

775
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 8: because I mean, the quarterback, you know, he's the natural

776
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 8: leader of the team. So it kind of lit a

777
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 8: fire under me, and I know that the fire under

778
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 8: everyone else just in general. But I mean, we played

779
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 8: a really good football team today, so it just takes

780
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 8: every single detail.

781
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 7: Kamari Lassiter joining us here a Texans Texans cornerback.

782
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 4: Before we get out of here, I saw a video.

783
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 7: From the team during the week that asked everybody what

784
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 7: time they go to sleep every night?

785
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 4: Is it true that you don't like you do?

786
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 2: You say? You're the one guy in.

787
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:38,080
Speaker 4: The video that said I don't sleep. Yeah, I mean, I.

788
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 7: Mean that's an exaggeration obviously.

789
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 8: Yeah, but honestly, like I really, I really don't sleep

790
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 8: a whole bunch like I sleep, but I don't, like

791
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 8: I don't know how to explain it. Like whenever they

792
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 8: asked me the question, it was like, what time do

793
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 8: you go to sleep before the game? I've had some

794
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 8: of my best games when I didn't sleep the night before,

795
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 8: like or I got maybe four or five hours.

796
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 4: I don't know what's going through your head as you're

797
00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:57,520
Speaker 4: not sleeping.

798
00:32:57,960 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 8: I'm just ready to play, like, oh, I'm just ready

799
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 8: to play, like I'm thinking about all the players that

800
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 8: I can make. I'm just I'm ready to play, like

801
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 8: I'll be ready to play. I'm ready to play it

802
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 8: right now.

803
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 2: You're ready to play Jacksonville.

804
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 9: Let me tell you, ain't what's going through your head.

805
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,160
Speaker 9: It's a young testosterone thro that.

806
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 2: Might be because one of these days that's gonna change

807
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:14,600
Speaker 2: and be like damn.

808
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 4: I needed that.

809
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,479
Speaker 9: And uh, I always got to ask the guys if

810
00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 9: you come in smelling good, I got to ask what

811
00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 9: the sin is?

812
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 2: Man?

813
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 4: Ah, it's called it's in a blue bottle.

814
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 9: It's called come on com I mean, you come in

815
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 9: here smelling good.

816
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 4: I mean, man, it's called like pure something. I don't know.

817
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 4: I'm might have to find it. You know, I'm gonna

818
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:37,360
Speaker 4: get it back to you. I think my wife might

819
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:38,880
Speaker 4: appreciate it. I'm gonna get it back to that.

820
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 7: We'll get with Omar and the crew and we'll get

821
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 7: it through different through them.

822
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:43,239
Speaker 2: There you go.

823
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 7: There you go, kamor last arter joining us here on

824
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 7: Texans post game. Hey, man, go get him next week

825
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 7: in Jacksonville. We got to start stacking some of these duchess.

826
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 1: What a pick Kamar Lassiter has turned out to be

827
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,320
Speaker 1: for the Houston Texans, and they have to fight a

828
00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:58,960
Speaker 1: way to cash in on this defensive performance as they've

829
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 1: stayed pretty healthy on that side of the football. Health

830
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,959
Speaker 1: not coming their way offensively in the form of quarterback CJ. Stroud,

831
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 1: who left the game with the concussion yesterday and he

832
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:11,360
Speaker 1: will be evaluated day to day. Part of the protocol,

833
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 1: the team will get ready to play Jacksonville with Davis Mills.

834
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 1: Very often players don't return the next week from a concussion.

835
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 1: Nico Collins had won a couple of weeks ago, missed

836
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 1: one game. Let's hope that's it for CJ. Stroud if any.

837
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 1: But they are preparing with Davis Mills right now. So

838
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 1: game plan city in the next couple of days to

839
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,240
Speaker 1: get Mills ready for practice on Wednesday.

840
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 2: That's going to help.

841
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 1: We have Mills at four five and one in the

842
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 1: AFC South in his career, not that that means anything.

843
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 1: He's got twenty five starts in his career.

844
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:41,399
Speaker 4: Now.

845
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,920
Speaker 1: He played well last year in the finale at Tennessee,

846
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:47,000
Speaker 1: but he was coming off the bench.

847
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:47,320
Speaker 2: C J.

848
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 1: Stroud played the opening drive of that one as the

849
00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,240
Speaker 1: offense tried to work out some kinks. As you might recall,

850
00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,560
Speaker 1: Mills played well the rest of the way, and Mills

851
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:58,239
Speaker 1: obviously played against the Denver Broncos in relief of c J.

852
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,640
Speaker 1: Stroud came in and threw for over eighty yards in

853
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:02,919
Speaker 1: the first half, couple of field goal drives, but then

854
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 1: in the second half one field goal short drive after

855
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,440
Speaker 1: the great punt return by Jalen Knowl, and the Texans

856
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 1: went zero for seven and third downs after that. But

857
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 1: Mills now gets the full week of prep to get

858
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:18,360
Speaker 1: ready for Jacksonville, who he is two and one against

859
00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:20,960
Speaker 1: in his career. Again, that doesn't mean anything. He's in

860
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,759
Speaker 1: the same draft class as Trevor Lawrence. Interesting you might

861
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,879
Speaker 1: remember Mills drafted in twenty one in the third round

862
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:29,240
Speaker 1: when the Texans had no first or second round picks

863
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,319
Speaker 1: coming up, and Dy Kalu quick thoughts on the game

864
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,759
Speaker 1: from him and on the week to come as they

865
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:38,040
Speaker 1: prep for the Jaguars invasion on Salute to Service Day,

866
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:41,920
Speaker 1: plus more from Demico Ryans right afterwards with John Harris,

867
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,360
Speaker 1: the locker room talk between those two. It's coming up

868
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,719
Speaker 1: here on Texans Radio. Right back to it here on

869
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,319
Speaker 1: the Demico Ryans Program, brought to you by AMIGI Bank,

870
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:53,480
Speaker 1: the official business bank of the Houston Texans. Now every Monday,

871
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 1: we catch up with Endy Kalou, Texans teammate of Demiko

872
00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,480
Speaker 1: Ryans back in the day, twelve year NFL veteran, part

873
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:03,759
Speaker 1: of our broad cast crew, preseason TV color commentator and

874
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 1: nd This is part of the conversation. Agreed that with

875
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 1: a full week of practice with Davis Mills, it's going

876
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:11,960
Speaker 1: to be better than it was against the Broncos. And

877
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: had somehow CJ. Stropd been able to stay in that game,

878
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:16,560
Speaker 1: had he not gotten hit, it would have been a

879
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:17,360
Speaker 1: different situation.

880
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 6: Oh that's the way those trend thinks. But that's why,

881
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,719
Speaker 6: unfortunately or fortunately, you have fifty three guys on the

882
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:26,759
Speaker 6: roster because this is the most dangerous sport in all

883
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:29,279
Speaker 6: the popular sports. So guys are gonna go down. And

884
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 6: you want the Texas to do what the San Francisco

885
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:33,920
Speaker 6: forty nine ers are doing with their backup quarterbacks. You

886
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,960
Speaker 6: know they're gonna have some upstowns, but they're still, you know,

887
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 6: hugely successful in the win lost column, even with their

888
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:43,040
Speaker 6: backup quarterback. But I'm with you, and when I bring

889
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:46,319
Speaker 6: up Davis Mills, it's it's mainly on him because he

890
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 6: is a quarterback. He's touching the ball in every play,

891
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:53,239
Speaker 6: but it goes to every single person that's associated with

892
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 6: that offense from the play calling. You know, I've seen

893
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,799
Speaker 6: and been in situations where I'm playing against a team

894
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 6: and a backup comes in and we see wildcat, we

895
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 6: see a lot of trick plays. It doesn't always work,

896
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:05,880
Speaker 6: but no, it keeps you on your toes as a defense.

897
00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:08,719
Speaker 6: And I just felt like it was too vanilla and

898
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,160
Speaker 6: that was the one time where you really needed to

899
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 6: be creative. You really needed to open it up because

900
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:17,399
Speaker 6: you don't have CJ. Stroud. But absolutely what you were saying.

901
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 6: When I was watching that game and early on, I

902
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,880
Speaker 6: was like, Okay, yeah, you know this is going to

903
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 6: be slobbery knockers we used to call it, where the

904
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:28,319
Speaker 6: defense is going to continue to pound, but it's going

905
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 6: to be that one offensive drive where you say that's

906
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,480
Speaker 6: the drive that won it. And I felt like with CJ.

907
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:35,439
Speaker 6: Stroud we would have seen one or two of those

908
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 6: drives and I was hoping to see one. With Davis Mills,

909
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:40,919
Speaker 6: I was actually excited for him to kind of prove

910
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,400
Speaker 6: to himself while he's still on this roster, and I

911
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:46,239
Speaker 6: was just very disappointed with the lack of scoring and

912
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 6: the lack of offense when he was under the center and.

913
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 1: Dy, what's going to the heads of the players right now?

914
00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 1: Three and five and they're in ninth in the AFC.

915
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 1: They do have the teams on their schedule that if

916
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:01,719
Speaker 1: they defeat them enough of them and go something like

917
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,760
Speaker 1: seven and two down the stretch, there's a chance. Okay,

918
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 1: I know that it sounds kind of ridiculous considering there

919
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:09,839
Speaker 1: three and five, but we've seen this team lose these

920
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:14,359
Speaker 1: close games, there needs to be a transformation and edge

921
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 1: gain something in order to get there. But what's going

922
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,840
Speaker 1: through their heads right now as Jacksonville comes in Sunday

923
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:20,239
Speaker 1: at noon.

924
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 6: Literally one game at a time, one day at a time,

925
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:26,520
Speaker 6: and if you take care of one day at a time,

926
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:28,960
Speaker 6: then everything else will take care of itself. Like they

927
00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:32,520
Speaker 6: they don't need to be looking at the standings and oh,

928
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 6: you know the Culture seven and two they lost. You know,

929
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 6: if we do this and we beat them twice and

930
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,960
Speaker 6: we have a chance to get back in is that true? Absolutely?

931
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 6: But you're at the point now coming off this loss,

932
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,520
Speaker 6: especially one that was so important and you had a chance.

933
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:49,520
Speaker 6: You just felt like you had a chance to win

934
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,440
Speaker 6: that game up until the very end. Now you're to

935
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,040
Speaker 6: the point where it's truly one game at a time,

936
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 6: one day at a time. Don't look too far into

937
00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 6: the future. Yes, they're getting ready for the Jacksonville Jaguars,

938
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 6: but I want all those guys on Monday. If today

939
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 6: is the day where you're getting rehab, you're doing the

940
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 6: workout that gets the sowred nets out of your out

941
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 6: of your body, and you're watching film. That's all you

942
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,320
Speaker 6: should be focused on. You know what, all I'm focused

943
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:16,879
Speaker 6: on is watching the Denver game because that's what we're

944
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 6: doing today, and that's what we're gonna do after our

945
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:22,319
Speaker 6: workouts and just literally take it one day at a time.

946
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,680
Speaker 6: Then when you look up ten weeks down the line,

947
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:25,879
Speaker 6: you're like, oh, we're back in.

948
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:26,840
Speaker 4: It, Indy.

949
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 5: How tough is it, as especially a defensive player on

950
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 5: this defense, when you look up and CJ. Stroud is

951
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 5: not He's not in the game, and we don't know

952
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:39,160
Speaker 5: how long he's going to be out, et cetera. How

953
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:43,719
Speaker 5: tough is it to force yourself to just do your job,

954
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 5: not to try and do too much because you know

955
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 5: the defense has got to step up even more. But

956
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,640
Speaker 5: how do you fight the feeling of just trying to

957
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 5: do too much and just do the only job you

958
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,600
Speaker 5: know to do, and that's the job of that play

959
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 5: call for that particular play. How do you fight that

960
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:01,879
Speaker 5: urge just well, I thought I could go over here

961
00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:03,759
Speaker 5: and make this big play. How do you fight that

962
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:05,320
Speaker 5: urge this week and maybe next?

963
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:09,720
Speaker 6: That's a great question, and my answer is by trusting

964
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 6: the offense. But then I have to make sure I

965
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 6: add the offense has to give you a reason to

966
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 6: trust them because you're dead on like they're gonna be

967
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:22,399
Speaker 6: in a situation where they say to themselves. And I've

968
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:25,000
Speaker 6: been in huddles where the defense is, hey, guys, we

969
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 6: got to score, and you know, typically there's no play

970
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 6: drawn up for the defensive score. So it's just what

971
00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 6: you said. You kind of dismiss your responsibilities. You try

972
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:37,880
Speaker 6: to go over and beyond where something great could happen

973
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:40,800
Speaker 6: or something disastrous can happen. And you don't want to

974
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:43,279
Speaker 6: do that because you want to keep that integrity and

975
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 6: play your responsibility and play discipline defensive football, which the

976
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:50,240
Speaker 6: Texans have been doing. But the answer to that question

977
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 6: to me lies with the offense. You know, Davis Mills

978
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 6: and co. Again, I can't just put on Davis Mills,

979
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,160
Speaker 6: but they get most of the fame and they also,

980
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,200
Speaker 6: you know, get the heartache when things don't go the

981
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:05,719
Speaker 6: way of the Texans. But Davis Mills and the offensive coordinator,

982
00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,280
Speaker 6: the offensive line, they have to make the defense confident

983
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 6: that they can get it done. I'm telling you, when

984
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 6: I saw Davis Mills trot out there, I was hoping

985
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,719
Speaker 6: for and I was thinking I was somewhat optimistic. I

986
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,160
Speaker 6: was like, you know what. Okay, this is why you're here.

987
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 6: Unlike most backups in the NFL. You've been in the

988
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:25,840
Speaker 6: system for five plus years. You know something good is

989
00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 6: going to happen. That was kind of my mindset.

990
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 4: All right.

991
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:31,080
Speaker 1: There's end Kalou part of our Monday visit with him

992
00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:33,040
Speaker 1: to get his thoughts on the game and the upcoming

993
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 1: week as the Texans prepared to face the Jacksonville Jaguars

994
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 1: Sunday at noon. And let's get back into more aftermath

995
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 1: of the game against the Broncos, John Harris and Demico

996
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:47,120
Speaker 1: Ryans catch up outside the locker room conversation I always

997
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 1: want to hear I prefer hearing it after a win,

998
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,640
Speaker 1: but this is always good between Johnny and Dimico.

999
00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 2: Coach tough one, tough afternoon.

1000
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,920
Speaker 5: What's probably the most frustrating thing that looking back at

1001
00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 5: the game, kind of running it through your mind that

1002
00:41:58,480 --> 00:41:59,440
Speaker 5: you're going through right now.

1003
00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:05,200
Speaker 3: Man, well, a lot, but the I don't think it's

1004
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,279
Speaker 3: just one thing. I think it's just a culmination of

1005
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:12,839
Speaker 3: many things there. Just for us starting offensively, like man,

1006
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:16,279
Speaker 3: just third down. We gotta be able to win third

1007
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:18,439
Speaker 3: down so we can sustain drives and then the red

1008
00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 3: zone I mean there it is we don't get any

1009
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,880
Speaker 3: end zone that you're not gonna win the game. If

1010
00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:24,760
Speaker 3: you can't get an end zone, you can't score points.

1011
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:26,920
Speaker 3: So got to do a better job there. And then

1012
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,000
Speaker 3: just defensively, I think just just some of the plays

1013
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:33,600
Speaker 3: that we let out were just something on us, right,

1014
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 3: And that's that's the frustrating thing, you know, it's I

1015
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:39,359
Speaker 3: know we can play even better versus that good team.

1016
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:41,080
Speaker 3: A lot of people gonna say, yeah, that that point

1017
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:42,799
Speaker 3: told that that math. I feel like we could have

1018
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:44,759
Speaker 3: played even better defensively.

1019
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 5: Speaking of the defense, felt like the fourth quarter was

1020
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:49,839
Speaker 5: like a ping pong match, was just you get three downs,

1021
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 5: you get three downs, you get three downs, and your

1022
00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 5: defense was just really holding in there, it felt like

1023
00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:56,840
Speaker 5: in the fourth quarter until Boke got out on that

1024
00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:57,920
Speaker 5: love scramble.

1025
00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:00,000
Speaker 4: And the guys did a great job man in critical moment.

1026
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,239
Speaker 3: I think we got three consecutive stops there to give

1027
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:06,880
Speaker 3: us a chance to get going, and we didn't answer

1028
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,480
Speaker 3: that offensively to be able to drive down to get

1029
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 3: some points.

1030
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:12,160
Speaker 4: But the guys did their job.

1031
00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 3: But my game plan this week was just just remained

1032
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:17,880
Speaker 3: disciplined for four quarters, right and there at the end,

1033
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 3: we allowed a quarterback to escape the one time he

1034
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 3: decides to run the ball.

1035
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 4: We did a great job all game.

1036
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 3: And then at one time where you know we're not

1037
00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:28,879
Speaker 3: quite on it, the kid makes a play and sets

1038
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 3: them up in a really good position.

1039
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:32,080
Speaker 5: I know you haven't gone back and looked at the

1040
00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:34,399
Speaker 5: film yet. We were your first thoughts about how David

1041
00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:35,919
Speaker 5: did stepping in when CJ went out.

1042
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:38,120
Speaker 3: I had to look at the film to see. I mean,

1043
00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,240
Speaker 3: you know, it didn't feel like we had rhythm going,

1044
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:44,279
Speaker 3: didn't feel like it was, you know, as best as

1045
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,799
Speaker 3: I've seen Davis play. We got to look at the

1046
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:49,719
Speaker 3: film and see, you know what happened there. It's all

1047
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:52,359
Speaker 3: eleven thing, you know, for us offensively, So we'll look

1048
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,839
Speaker 3: at the tape see how it goes. Look at the

1049
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 3: coach and the players, everybody. It's all of us. It's

1050
00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 3: not just and on them at all. Starts with me,

1051
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:02,000
Speaker 3: and we got to look at it all.

1052
00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:03,960
Speaker 2: And now it's Jacksonville coming in.

1053
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:07,520
Speaker 5: They're playing the Raiders as we speak, as division opponent,

1054
00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 5: actually two of them in a row.

1055
00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:10,160
Speaker 2: But we're back here at home.

1056
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:12,320
Speaker 5: How important is it to be back at home with

1057
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:14,399
Speaker 5: pack on our divisional opponent that we've already seen this year.

1058
00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:17,719
Speaker 3: Coach, Yeah, excited to go against another division opponent. Right,

1059
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,920
Speaker 3: we seen these guys before a few weeks ago. We

1060
00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:23,399
Speaker 3: know what they're about. They know what we're about. It

1061
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 3: made the best man win. Well, we gotta come out.

1062
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:27,719
Speaker 3: We got to bring our a game, right. We gotta

1063
00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:31,840
Speaker 3: be better situationally, third down, red zone, getting the critical stops.

1064
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:33,880
Speaker 4: We just got to be on our p's and q's

1065
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:36,359
Speaker 4: as a team. Coach, I appreciate you time, Thank you,

1066
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 4: thanks e.

1067
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:39,600
Speaker 1: All right, there's some stuff from John Harris and coach

1068
00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:42,719
Speaker 1: Tomiko Ryan's following the game against Denver Texans dropping to

1069
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:45,520
Speaker 1: three and five ouch, two games under five hundred. That

1070
00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 1: was a golden opportunity missed as they had a chance

1071
00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:50,360
Speaker 1: to get back to even money. But you gotta do

1072
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 1: what you gotta do, and that's beat the Jaguars on

1073
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 1: Sunday and then beat Tennessee and then you can get

1074
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:56,720
Speaker 1: to five and five before facing the Bills.

1075
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:57,320
Speaker 2: Stop me.

1076
00:44:57,560 --> 00:44:59,640
Speaker 1: It's one game at a time, and it's all about

1077
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:03,400
Speaker 1: the jag Wars, who were overtime winners against the Raiders

1078
00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:07,840
Speaker 1: in Vegas yesterday, went deep into overtime and the Raiders

1079
00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:10,759
Speaker 1: scored the would be tying or take the lead touchdown.

1080
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 1: They could have kicked the extra point and taken the tie.

1081
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 1: They decided to go for the wins, so credit them

1082
00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 1: for that, but they did not make it, so they

1083
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 1: did not help the Texans. Jags go to five and three,

1084
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,839
Speaker 1: But Houston can do something about that Sunday. If you win,

1085
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,520
Speaker 1: you're still behind them, but at least you tag the

1086
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:29,320
Speaker 1: loss on them, and they'll have their issues down the

1087
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:29,960
Speaker 1: line to deal with.

1088
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 2: Everybody's got their own.

1089
00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:34,160
Speaker 1: Problems, like the Colts who lost to the Steelers and

1090
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,279
Speaker 1: now they have two losses on the season, and a

1091
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:38,960
Speaker 1: glimpse at their schedule reveals it's pretty tough. They have

1092
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:42,400
Speaker 1: Atlanta and Munich this week and then a bunch of

1093
00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:45,080
Speaker 1: real tough ones down the line, including two with the Texans.

1094
00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:47,600
Speaker 1: So plenty of games on the schedule that if you

1095
00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:50,440
Speaker 1: play well in them, you can really help your cause.

1096
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 1: But it all starts with Jacksonville Sunday at noon, Salute

1097
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:56,520
Speaker 1: to Service Day. Can't wait for that. Got to get

1098
00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:59,440
Speaker 1: this taste out of our mouths On Tuesday's show. Among

1099
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:03,840
Speaker 1: other things, Jake Hanson will join us. Looking forward to

1100
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:08,600
Speaker 1: that Jake Linebacker, Special Teams Player extraordinaire plus will probably

1101
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:11,400
Speaker 1: revisit some of Brian Cushing on the pregame show with

Speaker 1: Shawn and Set. That was a great visit, so that
