WEBVTT - Recapping a Wild weekend and prepping for the Chiefs | Texans All Access 0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:00.760 What's happened? 0:00:00.800 --> 0:00:01.200 Everybody? 0:00:01.240 --> 0:00:04.000 Welcome into a Monday Nation of Texans all access from 0:00:04.200 --> 0:00:09.040 the Hyundai Texans Radio studio, a very happy studio after 0:00:09.080 --> 0:00:14.080 what happened Saturday afternoon at Energy Stadium. The Texans beat 0:00:14.120 --> 0:00:18.640 the Chargers thirty two to twelve. And yes, the Chargers 0:00:18.640 --> 0:00:20.880 were a three point favorite. It was a bye week. 0:00:21.280 --> 0:00:24.960 All the noise all week long didn't matter. The Texans 0:00:24.960 --> 0:00:28.840 were locked in, especially after six to nothing. I mean 0:00:28.840 --> 0:00:32.680 the outscored the Chargers thirty two to six from two 0:00:32.800 --> 0:00:37.760 minutes left in the second quarter on. That's amazing. That's 0:00:37.800 --> 0:00:39.440 the way you play ball. And you gotta do it 0:00:39.440 --> 0:00:43.400 again at an even higher level this week against the 0:00:43.479 --> 0:00:46.640 Kansas City Chiefs. Appreciate you being with me John Harris, 0:00:46.720 --> 0:00:51.040 football analyst, sideline reporter for your Houston Texans. And we're 0:00:51.040 --> 0:00:54.000 gonna kick off the show with our good friend Andre 0:00:54.400 --> 0:00:57.320 where he hits the great stuff with me and Mark. 0:00:57.440 --> 0:00:58.200 Here we go. 0:00:58.600 --> 0:01:02.840 Let's talk about that throw that drived ninety nine yards CJ. 0:01:03.440 --> 0:01:07.520 The Xavier Hutchinson play. He really got going. What do 0:01:07.520 --> 0:01:09.279 you think is going through his head at that point 0:01:09.440 --> 0:01:13.080 as he found a rhythm that we haven't seen consistently 0:01:13.160 --> 0:01:15.960 this year. It's been there at times, but man, it 0:01:16.080 --> 0:01:18.800 was really there rocking from that point forward. 0:01:19.520 --> 0:01:21.920 Yeah, I would equate it to a basketball player that, 0:01:22.080 --> 0:01:24.320 you know, struggling in a game shooting and then all 0:01:24.360 --> 0:01:27.440 of a sudden, you hit a shot that gets you going. 0:01:27.640 --> 0:01:31.600 And I think that's what the erran snap over his 0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:34.080 head and then him grabbing it and going to X 0:01:34.160 --> 0:01:37.479 with it for the big game. That kind of got 0:01:37.520 --> 0:01:40.040 him going. That was the wake up call. He started 0:01:40.040 --> 0:01:41.440 throwing dots after that. 0:01:41.560 --> 0:01:42.479 It was it was just. 0:01:42.520 --> 0:01:45.640 Kind of fun to watch he and Nico fully take 0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:48.280 advantage of a matchup and that maybe the first time 0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:52.920 in two years that I've seen Bobby Slowick actually go 0:01:53.040 --> 0:01:56.800 after somebody. And Fulton was the guy number seven for 0:01:56.960 --> 0:02:00.560 the Chargers. They just started to target. They knew they 0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:04.080 could get inside on him anytime they wanted. Nico was 0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:07.000 just too physical for him to handle and that got 0:02:08.440 --> 0:02:10.720 CJ going as well, And it was just it was 0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:13.280 fun to watch the entire second half of how they 0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:16.520 played football on both sides along with special teams. 0:02:17.240 --> 0:02:19.040 Do you remember what I said, Mark, You and I 0:02:19.080 --> 0:02:20.440 were kind of talking. I can't remember. If you're on 0:02:20.440 --> 0:02:22.239 the air off and you asked me about Fulton. Do 0:02:22.240 --> 0:02:23.919 you remember what I told you about Fulton. 0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:26.280 Not as good as he wants to be? 0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:29.560 Yeah, I said something that nature, probably in a different way, 0:02:29.600 --> 0:02:33.520 but yeah, we having seen him with the Titans, they're like, okay, 0:02:33.680 --> 0:02:34.679 well let's go after him. 0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:36.440 But yeah, Trey's right, Trey. 0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:39.960 The scramble I said earlier, and not to be contrarian, 0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:42.160 but I'm like, I felt like the scramble a little 0:02:42.160 --> 0:02:46.320 bit later really charged up almost as much as to 0:02:46.360 --> 0:02:50.520 throw to X. I felt like the scramble because the 0:02:50.520 --> 0:02:52.640 way that CJ got up and he flexed and the 0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:54.519 crowd fed off of that. It felt like there was 0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:58.640 this crescendo of crowd noise after the scramble that was 0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:01.440 almost even more than when he dropped the snap and 0:03:01.480 --> 0:03:04.200 then found X. How much do you think that play 0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:07.320 kind of charged up everybody on the sideline when he 0:03:07.400 --> 0:03:09.960 took off. It's not something he's done a ton. He 0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:11.840 does it, but not a ton, But how much do 0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:14.280 you think that play? The scramble kind of charged everybody 0:03:14.360 --> 0:03:16.040 up as well? 0:03:16.080 --> 0:03:18.280 I think you know it was needed at the time, 0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:22.359 and so when everybody's kind of watching the game at 0:03:22.400 --> 0:03:24.959 that point, there's always a point in the game where 0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:28.160 the defense stops just being the defense and they become 0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:30.280 the team and the and vice versa. 0:03:30.440 --> 0:03:31.680 And by that, I mean, you. 0:03:31.600 --> 0:03:34.960 Know, you're on the sideline and you're going over stuff 0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:38.560 with Demico and whomever else, and your position. Coaches is 0:03:38.880 --> 0:03:41.360 now they're watching the game, and so they want to 0:03:41.360 --> 0:03:43.120 know what the offense is doing. And all of a 0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:46.240 sudden they see CJ break up play like that. Now 0:03:46.240 --> 0:03:48.320 it's like, okay, we're playing, well, let's take it to 0:03:48.360 --> 0:03:49.000 another level. 0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:50.200 It feeds and. 0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:53.880 Permeates through the entire team. And so that's what that 0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:56.760 play did. I don't know if it charged him because 0:03:57.280 --> 0:04:01.720 he needed charging before the completion the X. And once 0:04:01.800 --> 0:04:05.280 that happened, it allowed all the other stuff after that 0:04:05.320 --> 0:04:07.120 to follow Trey. 0:04:07.240 --> 0:04:11.160 This defense. What they did to Justin Herbert, my goodness. 0:04:11.360 --> 0:04:13.720 And it all starts up front with the pressure, right, 0:04:13.760 --> 0:04:16.960 those guys just collapsing the pocket, making life a little 0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:18.480 bit less comfortable for him. 0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:19.240 How did you see it? 0:04:19.560 --> 0:04:21.960 Yeah, And there wasn't a whole lot of blitzing being done. 0:04:22.040 --> 0:04:23.680 It was just, you know, I'm gonna beat my guy 0:04:23.760 --> 0:04:26.680 to the quarterback. They're getting tremendous push in the middle 0:04:27.279 --> 0:04:30.400 and then on from the outsides. And we talked about 0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:33.680 this at nausea that we felt like the team of 0:04:33.720 --> 0:04:36.480 the two best edge rushers that gets home the most 0:04:36.920 --> 0:04:39.240 was going to win the ballgame. And I'll tell you 0:04:39.320 --> 0:04:41.360 what if they weren't getting home, they were close to 0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:44.880 getting there where he got uncomfortable, he made throws late, 0:04:45.839 --> 0:04:49.039 they clouded his vision. It did everything they needed to 0:04:49.040 --> 0:04:52.400 do up front in terms of dominating the line of scrimmage. 0:04:52.440 --> 0:04:54.240 And by the way they you know, we talk about 0:04:54.279 --> 0:04:56.760 the pass rush so much, they didn't allow very much 0:04:56.800 --> 0:04:58.800 to go on on in the ground game as well 0:04:58.839 --> 0:05:01.279 either in the second half. So it was it was 0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:04.279 just a fun game to watch. After they finally got 0:05:04.320 --> 0:05:06.880 that thing, kicks started. You're trying to rev up the 0:05:06.920 --> 0:05:09.760 old motorcycle and they won't start, and then finally, you know, 0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:12.440 you kick it one more time. Kicks started one more time, 0:05:12.440 --> 0:05:15.000 and it fires. It was a beautiful sound. 0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:17.320 Hey, did you guys know that Kamari last year ran 0:05:17.360 --> 0:05:18.440 a four to six to combine. 0:05:18.520 --> 0:05:21.440 J'll know that. Yeah, he's way he's slow. 0:05:21.480 --> 0:05:23.760 He ran he ran a four walls. 0:05:23.800 --> 0:05:25.760 You know that. I hate to use a cowboy reperend. 0:05:25.800 --> 0:05:26.880 Yeah, he only. 0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:28.600 Went down as one of the best corners in the league, 0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:31.480 and it's that's the fastest he ever ran was four 0:05:31.520 --> 0:05:31.880 to six. 0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:36.080 You know, Dre, I felt like that that play he makes, 0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:39.279 he's done that twice now because I want to say 0:05:39.279 --> 0:05:41.960 in the Lions game, we turned the ball over and 0:05:42.000 --> 0:05:45.599 he picked off the very next pass or something close 0:05:45.640 --> 0:05:48.160 to it. In the Lions game in the south end zone, 0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:51.200 he did it again. But the play to me that 0:05:51.320 --> 0:05:55.920 he makes on Darius Davis, the Herbert swings it out 0:05:55.960 --> 0:05:58.240 to him, and there's really one guy that can make 0:05:58.279 --> 0:06:01.279 the tackle, and Kamari he makes as good a form 0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:03.680 tackle as you're gonna make out in space. I think 0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:07.080 that being for a TfL. But what this guy is 0:06:07.279 --> 0:06:11.440 doing opposite Derek Stingley, because we're finding out teams aren't 0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:14.479 gonna challenge Stingley, but they're going after or gonna try 0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:17.960 to go after Kamari and he's answering the bell, Dre, 0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:20.360 how important do you think that has been to this 0:06:20.440 --> 0:06:23.679 defense that Kamari has stepped up and giving them both 0:06:23.880 --> 0:06:25.000 run and pass. 0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:27.400 The play that he's given him this year. 0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:29.680 Yeah, I think the run has come along as the 0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:30.839 season's progressed. 0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:33.400 He is a willing hitter. 0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:36.120 I will say that he does not shy away from contact. 0:06:36.400 --> 0:06:39.719 He likes explosive plays. I played with the guy at 0:06:39.720 --> 0:06:41.640 the University of Houston. I bet you he couldn't break 0:06:41.680 --> 0:06:44.480 four six And Johnny Jackson went on to the San 0:06:44.480 --> 0:06:46.599 Francisco forty nine ers and won a couple of Super 0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:49.200 Bowls while he was out there. But you talk about 0:06:49.240 --> 0:06:53.400 a tremendous athlete hand and eye coordination, Kamari reminds me 0:06:53.440 --> 0:06:55.760 of him so so much. You get him on a 0:06:55.760 --> 0:06:59.359 basketball court, He's gonna make all the steals. He's gonna 0:06:59.360 --> 0:07:02.840 make plays in whatever game that he's in because he's 0:07:02.839 --> 0:07:03.840 so dang athletic. 0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:06.719 And I think they've gotten it right on both sides. 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:11.040 Obviously with Stingley and now Lassiter, Bullock is a stepping 0:07:11.040 --> 0:07:14.200 stone Murray. When they needed a play, he stepped up 0:07:14.200 --> 0:07:16.680 and made a play. So everybody in that secondary, not 0:07:16.720 --> 0:07:20.680 only Kamara, it was everyone making plays in the secondary 0:07:20.720 --> 0:07:23.520 while the defensive line in the front seven were doing 0:07:23.520 --> 0:07:26.280 their things. But you need a player like that where 0:07:26.280 --> 0:07:29.200 you just can't explain how he gets from A to B. 0:07:29.920 --> 0:07:33.000 But guys that can play with pads on. It's why 0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:38.400 the forty isn't a necessary or the end game when 0:07:38.400 --> 0:07:41.320 it comes to can you play or not? If you 0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:43.200 can get from A to B with pads on, you 0:07:43.240 --> 0:07:45.120 can play as fast as a guy. 0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:45.960 That runs four to three. 0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:48.520 And that guy that runs four to three put pads 0:07:48.560 --> 0:07:50.120 on him and he turns into a four to six 0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:52.720 for seven to the guy because he doesn't know how to 0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:53.600 carry his pads. 0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:57.200 So this was the number one scoring defense in the league. 0:07:57.240 --> 0:08:00.480 You put up thirty two. I know that nine came 0:08:00.560 --> 0:08:02.880 from the two point conversion turn. 0:08:03.120 --> 0:08:04.040 All right, let's say. 0:08:04.880 --> 0:08:07.360 You're right, because if you're the number one scoring offense 0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:10.000 in the league, if the defense has a couple of 0:08:10.000 --> 0:08:12.760 touchdowns in there, they count on your numbers. Okay, So whatever, 0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:14.920 you put up thirty two points and dre At the 0:08:15.000 --> 0:08:17.440 end of the day, you look up, Nico has a. 0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:18.440 Team record for a. 0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:21.880 Receiver in the postseason one hundred and twenty two yards 0:08:21.880 --> 0:08:24.920 on seven catches. Mix in one hundred and six yards. 0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:28.320 CJ goes over too eighty. The offense did its thing. 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:31.440 But let's talk about Nico for a moment. This is 0:08:31.440 --> 0:08:34.800 a rhetorical question. How good is he? That's pretty good. 0:08:34.880 --> 0:08:37.520 That's pretty good stuff. That is pretty good stuff from 0:08:37.600 --> 0:08:38.920 number twelve on Saturday. 0:08:39.040 --> 0:08:41.080 Yeah, I'd go all the way back to training camp. 0:08:41.080 --> 0:08:44.880 There's just been a look about him since the year started. 0:08:44.880 --> 0:08:47.720 He had a tremendous offseason where he just looks the 0:08:47.800 --> 0:08:51.040 part and you could tell he had set himself up 0:08:51.080 --> 0:08:53.920 to have a big year with everything that was coming 0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:55.600 in around him, Tank. 0:08:55.480 --> 0:08:57.480 Was going to be back. Here comes Diggs. 0:08:57.640 --> 0:09:00.480 Am I still the man and you see him at 0:09:00.480 --> 0:09:02.880 training camp and how he worked, how he's gotten his 0:09:02.960 --> 0:09:06.160 body in shape. He is a specimen now when you 0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:10.840 see him pre game, you see him out in practice, 0:09:11.320 --> 0:09:13.760 the guy looks like he can just take over a game, 0:09:13.880 --> 0:09:17.040 and now he believes it. So you get the physical part, 0:09:17.120 --> 0:09:19.640 match in the mental and he's playing with a tremendous 0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:20.600 amount of confidence. 0:09:20.880 --> 0:09:22.800 That's how you turn into a Pro Bowl player. 0:09:23.120 --> 0:09:26.600 Now that that's exactly what's happened, and he knows there's 0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:29.840 certain corners in this league that I can take advantage of. 0:09:30.280 --> 0:09:32.679 Throwing an extra year of experience where you know how 0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:35.920 to watch film and attack guys. Now your game goes 0:09:35.960 --> 0:09:38.679 to an even higher level. And I think that's what's 0:09:38.720 --> 0:09:42.000 happened with him. He's a tremendous player that you can 0:09:42.080 --> 0:09:44.200 lean on weekend and week out. 0:09:45.080 --> 0:09:46.800 I wonder if it's going to be like for Harbaugh 0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:49.679 to sit over there and watch his guy guy he recruited, 0:09:50.080 --> 0:09:54.679 brought to Michigan just Waylane just putting it on him. 0:09:55.000 --> 0:09:57.800 Because Nico's fantastic, so is Joe. And that leads me 0:09:57.800 --> 0:10:00.400 to this question, speaking about Joe and the run game 0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:02.920 and the way they were able to finish well this 0:10:03.040 --> 0:10:09.560 we're both y'all. Do you think that this current combination Laramie, Titus, Jarrett, 0:10:10.160 --> 0:10:14.120 Juice and Blake do you think this is the best 0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:16.440 combination a that we put on the field and be 0:10:16.640 --> 0:10:18.040 the best one going forward? 0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:21.760 Drag, I think it's the best so far to this point. 0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:25.200 And you know, I don't know how you disrupt it. 0:10:25.640 --> 0:10:27.720 You get a little more athletic, you get a little 0:10:27.760 --> 0:10:31.960 more youth, which scrugs the right guard, and I don't 0:10:31.960 --> 0:10:34.400 know how much how much more not to you know, 0:10:35.120 --> 0:10:37.040 pick on Shack when he's injured, but I don't know 0:10:37.040 --> 0:10:38.920 how much you were gonna get there, how much more? 0:10:39.480 --> 0:10:43.200 Patterson seems to be playing well at center and uh. 0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:45.440 And Titus is settling in and left guard. 0:10:45.480 --> 0:10:48.120 So you have the other two components with Blake Fisher 0:10:48.120 --> 0:10:48.920 at right tackle. 0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:51.319 I've always liked Blake. I think he's athletic. 0:10:51.400 --> 0:10:54.480 I think, you know what, he really makes his mind 0:10:54.559 --> 0:10:56.960 up that this is what he you know, he wants 0:10:57.000 --> 0:10:59.280 to be really good at this, and he's still a 0:10:59.280 --> 0:11:01.560 young player. There's us so there's some things that are 0:11:01.559 --> 0:11:05.800 important to him as as well. But when he makes 0:11:05.920 --> 0:11:09.240 up his mind from a maturity standpoint that this is 0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:11.280 what he wants to do and he wants to be 0:11:11.320 --> 0:11:14.840 good at it, he the you know it, there's no 0:11:14.920 --> 0:11:16.920 ceiling for him. He can be as good as he 0:11:17.000 --> 0:11:19.360 wants to be. And so, yes, this is the best 0:11:19.400 --> 0:11:23.360 offensive line combination certainly that I've seen this year. But 0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:26.240 it may be that way going forward. And then you 0:11:26.280 --> 0:11:28.000 start to fill in around these guys. 0:11:28.520 --> 0:11:30.800 Mark the way I like to manage. I would ask 0:11:30.840 --> 0:11:33.160 CJ and Joe, what do you guys think? What do 0:11:33.200 --> 0:11:35.559 you guys think of what's up front? Ask him crows 0:11:36.160 --> 0:11:39.960 are not around, I would ask them because knows CJ 0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:42.560 will tell you who's who he's confident with at what 0:11:42.800 --> 0:11:45.760 spot and where the trouble comes from, and what he's 0:11:45.840 --> 0:11:48.960 thinking about. And look, that's not the final decision maker. 0:11:49.200 --> 0:11:51.280 But to me, I think the input of those guys 0:11:51.600 --> 0:11:54.280 is really important because they're the ones who have to 0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:56.000 deal with it directly. 0:11:56.559 --> 0:11:58.120 And you know, we all we are. 0:11:57.960 --> 0:12:02.400 All affected by what happens with the play of any 0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:03.839 position on the field. 0:12:03.880 --> 0:12:05.679 Dre Here we go to Kansas City. 0:12:06.000 --> 0:12:09.640 The last time they played a meaningful game was Pittsburgh, 0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:12.760 and that's the only game they've played since playing the 0:12:12.800 --> 0:12:16.680 Texans that was meaningful Christmas Day. They played Pittsburgh on 0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:19.400 Christmas Day, four days after they played the Texans, and 0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:21.720 that was it. So by the time we played them, 0:12:21.720 --> 0:12:25.439 it's twenty three days later that they play a game 0:12:25.800 --> 0:12:30.640 with quote their starters, And here we go against Kansas City, 0:12:30.679 --> 0:12:35.480 a team that is hungry for another Super Bowl and 0:12:35.520 --> 0:12:38.000 they feel like it's their birthright to get back. 0:12:38.320 --> 0:12:39.520 What do you think of the matchup? 0:12:40.200 --> 0:12:42.439 Yeah, I mean, when you come out of it as 0:12:42.480 --> 0:12:45.120 the number one seed in the regular season, you're thinking 0:12:45.880 --> 0:12:48.080 we're going back. But they have sat for a while, 0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:51.240 so it's not the same team. I think it's paramount 0:12:51.320 --> 0:12:53.240 that the Texans get an early lead. If you can 0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:55.680 go up by let's say ten points, you get a 0:12:55.720 --> 0:12:57.599 ten to nothing lead in the first quarter, by the 0:12:57.679 --> 0:13:00.000 end of the first quarter. Now you've got them doubt 0:13:00.200 --> 0:13:02.640 whether or not they should have sat. They're thinking about 0:13:02.679 --> 0:13:05.800 everything else except what's in front of them. 0:13:05.800 --> 0:13:05.959 Now. 0:13:05.960 --> 0:13:08.960 I know that we've been there before and things have 0:13:09.040 --> 0:13:10.240 happened where you jump out. 0:13:10.120 --> 0:13:12.280 Twenty four or nothing, and then it happened and it collapsed. 0:13:12.280 --> 0:13:15.560 But that's a totally different team, same quarterback on the 0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:18.199 other side, but a totally different team on this side. 0:13:18.480 --> 0:13:21.400 So I think it's paramount that you get a lead early. 0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:24.000 You may compress a little bit, make them start to 0:13:24.080 --> 0:13:26.360 doubt whether or not they should have been sitting or playing, 0:13:26.720 --> 0:13:28.880 and things of that sort. But because that's gonna be 0:13:28.920 --> 0:13:31.800 what a little over three weeks of just not having 0:13:32.200 --> 0:13:36.600 timing the speed of the game, and it certainly speeds 0:13:36.679 --> 0:13:39.360 up when you get to the playoffs. I talk about 0:13:39.360 --> 0:13:41.640 this with you guys all the time, that in the 0:13:41.679 --> 0:13:45.080 preseason there's a pace. When the regular season starts, there's 0:13:45.120 --> 0:13:47.400 a pace that gets a little faster, and when the 0:13:47.400 --> 0:13:50.640 playoffs start, everybody you're not saving anybody anymore. 0:13:50.640 --> 0:13:52.959 It's why you see quarterbacks running. 0:13:53.040 --> 0:13:57.160 Josh Allen running quarterback draws and powers and things of 0:13:57.200 --> 0:13:57.640 that sort. 0:13:58.120 --> 0:14:01.079 The same with Jaden Daniels. Yes, last night in the 0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:02.000 game against Tampa. 0:14:02.120 --> 0:14:05.520 There's no more saving it because it's a loser, go home. 0:14:05.920 --> 0:14:09.360 And so I think you get a lead in Kansas City, Hey, 0:14:08.840 --> 0:14:11.880 you empty the tank, no Man, and see if you 0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:13.600 can get that thing to the finish line. 0:14:14.200 --> 0:14:17.240 On the other side of the AFC bracket, it is 0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:20.800 Superman against Action Jackson. As the ESPN put it, it's 0:14:20.920 --> 0:14:24.800 Josh Allen versus Lamar Jackson. The last time they met 0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:27.800 in the playoffs, it was Josh Allen. That was the 0:14:27.840 --> 0:14:31.400 twenty twenty season. Josh Allen and the Bills beat the Ravens. 0:14:31.400 --> 0:14:35.280 But there's one big difference. The King resides now in Baltimore, 0:14:35.720 --> 0:14:37.920 and the Ravens might be I don't even know what 0:14:37.960 --> 0:14:39.920 they might be. They are the best team right now 0:14:40.000 --> 0:14:43.600 because it feels like nobody is stopping what they're doing. 0:14:44.440 --> 0:14:45.840 But they have to go to Buffalo. 0:14:46.520 --> 0:14:51.280 When these teams met this year in Baltimore, Buffalo got hammered. 0:14:52.080 --> 0:14:54.320 Dre How do you see this Baltimore Buffalo game. I 0:14:54.320 --> 0:14:56.640 don't know if anybody's gonna get hammered, but I do 0:14:56.720 --> 0:14:58.520 think this could be outside of our. 0:14:58.440 --> 0:14:59.880 Game, is gonna be the best game of the week. 0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:02.760 What are your thoughts about Buffalo and Baltimore. 0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:04.720 Yeah, no doubt, I think it will be. 0:15:04.800 --> 0:15:07.000 But I just want to know, how is this even 0:15:07.040 --> 0:15:09.840 a conversation with who's the MVP? And it could be 0:15:09.920 --> 0:15:12.080 a game where it's a de facto MVP game with 0:15:12.240 --> 0:15:16.080 the winner takes on the MVP. To me, it's already 0:15:16.080 --> 0:15:19.880 one when you throw forty something touchdown passes. Whatever he's 0:15:19.920 --> 0:15:23.600 done on the ground, he's outperformed years and where. 0:15:24.960 --> 0:15:25.600 He's been the. 0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:29.800 MVP in two prior years, how do how is Lamar 0:15:29.880 --> 0:15:33.160 Jackson not the MVP of the league? And so h 0:15:33.440 --> 0:15:36.600 what is Josh Allen thrown like twenty eight touchdown passes? Yeah, 0:15:36.680 --> 0:15:40.280 they've won games, but uh, it's it's it's My. 0:15:40.360 --> 0:15:42.600 Vote would go to Lamar Jackson. 0:15:42.640 --> 0:15:44.640 And as far as the game goes, I think they're 0:15:44.680 --> 0:15:48.000 a team that's built that can go anywhere. If Buffalo, 0:15:48.120 --> 0:15:51.640 if the type of weather awaits the Ravens that they 0:15:51.760 --> 0:15:55.760 had in uh in Buffalo yesterday or whatever they played 0:15:55.800 --> 0:15:59.400 day before yesterday, Uh, then the Ravens have a big 0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:02.480 time chance. It's because they are built for cold weather. 0:16:03.240 --> 0:16:06.520 They're built for just about anything that and I would 0:16:06.560 --> 0:16:09.000 think even more so than the Bills, who would have 0:16:09.080 --> 0:16:10.680 the advantage of playing at home. 0:16:11.560 --> 0:16:11.800 Yeah. 0:16:12.160 --> 0:16:15.520 Look, I thought that Josh Allen was putting together an 0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:18.680 MVP campaign, but Lamar. 0:16:19.120 --> 0:16:20.000 Look at the stats. 0:16:20.240 --> 0:16:23.800 He passed them down the stretch. Yeah. Yeah, because when. 0:16:23.720 --> 0:16:26.280 I don't know if I'd rather be Action Jackson or Superman. 0:16:26.360 --> 0:16:28.800 I think Superman more powers. 0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:33.440 Yeah, see me, Baltimore favored by one point on the road. 0:16:33.600 --> 0:16:34.040 On the road. 0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:36.440 Well, I understand why because you feel like, all right, 0:16:36.440 --> 0:16:37.960 the Bills are going to make plays, but will they 0:16:38.000 --> 0:16:39.440 be able to stop the Ravens? 0:16:39.600 --> 0:16:40.560 Just stop them? 0:16:40.960 --> 0:16:42.880 You know, there's no question the Bills can make plays. 0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:45.440 Look the quarter and one more note on the quarterbacks here, 0:16:45.880 --> 0:16:47.840 Josh Allen likes to run them with the football. We've 0:16:47.880 --> 0:16:51.360 seen it, Okay, it happens, Lamar Jackson. Last I checked. Yes, 0:16:51.440 --> 0:16:53.080 he throws it at a high level. No one's saying 0:16:53.080 --> 0:16:54.960 these guys can't throw the ball, but they like to 0:16:55.080 --> 0:16:56.320 use the run in their game. 0:16:56.720 --> 0:16:57.800 So with c JR. 0:16:58.040 --> 0:17:01.200 Think about this for a second. You just talked about 0:17:01.240 --> 0:17:04.639 those two guys. Johnny talked about the effect of cj 0:17:05.280 --> 0:17:07.200 when he pulled it down, and maybe that's what I 0:17:07.240 --> 0:17:11.080 think it was. Twenty seven yards and how that just 0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:12.600 got everybody. 0:17:12.040 --> 0:17:15.520 Fired up and going. Everybody's using if you have. 0:17:15.600 --> 0:17:19.200 One, you're using them to run with because now you're 0:17:19.240 --> 0:17:23.120 forcing the defense to defend the entire field as well 0:17:23.160 --> 0:17:25.800 as an eleventh man. And it kind of goes to 0:17:26.080 --> 0:17:28.560 the advantage because you know what's going on. That guy 0:17:28.680 --> 0:17:32.320 knows exactly what's happening around man when to take off. 0:17:32.560 --> 0:17:35.040 That's the thing about it. It's not just taking off out. 0:17:34.880 --> 0:17:37.760 Of necessity, it's win how can I help the team 0:17:38.720 --> 0:17:41.679 to do it? Yeah, and so when you have that weapon, 0:17:41.880 --> 0:17:44.199 that type of weapon, boy doesn't give you an advantage. 0:17:44.480 --> 0:17:46.359 Yeah, that's that's what I'm thinking with CJ. 0:17:46.600 --> 0:17:50.520 Like he has to use that a little more well 0:17:51.000 --> 0:17:53.600 carefully of course, but he has to be able to 0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:56.080 implement that. And I know he's done it, but that 0:17:56.240 --> 0:17:57.600 was so effective the other night. 0:17:57.640 --> 0:17:58.400 I mean, look at Jaydon. 0:17:58.760 --> 0:18:02.439 This was the prize j Yeah, it's a surprise of 0:18:02.560 --> 0:18:05.159 CJ because you just don't see him do it a 0:18:05.200 --> 0:18:09.080 whole lot, but it's there. And when he takes off, 0:18:09.160 --> 0:18:11.359 it's not like guys are running him down, you know, 0:18:11.440 --> 0:18:15.280 he is. He's got some athletic trades to him that 0:18:15.960 --> 0:18:18.560 I think fans maybe are seeing for the first time, 0:18:18.960 --> 0:18:21.240 but I don't think it's any surprise to his teammates. 0:18:21.720 --> 0:18:24.360 All Right, Drey looking forward to it. Can't wait for Saturday. 0:18:25.040 --> 0:18:27.800 Let's do it, man, get us a good barbecue dinner 0:18:27.800 --> 0:18:29.440 and yeah, they can have a nice call. 0:18:29.920 --> 0:18:31.520 Damn right, can't wait for that one. 0:18:31.600 --> 0:18:36.399 Looking forward to another trip to Arrowhead on Friday for 0:18:36.480 --> 0:18:39.760 the game on Saturday. Three point thirty is the kick 0:18:39.880 --> 0:18:46.119 Saturday Games, Lions Commanders after hours. That's gonna be after hours. 0:18:46.119 --> 0:18:50.040 So we're going Texans in Chiefs in Kansas City. Then 0:18:50.080 --> 0:18:54.119 you got Lions and Commanders. On Sunday, you've got mamar 0:18:54.280 --> 0:18:58.879
