We had a lot of energy and 5 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:25,440 Speaker 1: we brought a lot of spark for this organization. Five 6 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 1: nights a week. They hits keep on coming. The Texans 7 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: say they have it and they do. No, it's Texans 8 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 1: all EXAs. It is Hello Texan.

And many of you are riding because 12 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:51,199 Speaker 1: I was in the car for just a teeny bit 13 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: today and I saw a bunch of people riding around. 14 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 1: It looked not normal, Johnny, but definitely things are starting 15 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: to pop back up here. Let's hope everybody safely and 16 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 1: we can get through this quickly, favor. I know we 17 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 1: talk about this every day, but like, uh, you know, 18 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 1: let's let's go. How you doing, my friend? Okay, I 19 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 1: started getting a little worried about you. John said, I 20 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 1: can't get Mark. I'm like, oh wow, okay, So when 21 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 1: I heard your voice is like, Okay, that's a good thing. 22 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: I changed headsets. I you know, I needed to change 23 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: and I decided to change head sets, So I didn't 24 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: that the go. It's internal information there, so I hope 25 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,959 Speaker 1: it sounds good anyway. We um, we have to schedule 26 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 1: out from yesterday, of course, and people are still digesting it. 27 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,559 Speaker 1: A lot of different takes on it, some Texans News 28 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,759 Speaker 1: perhaps today. And also we have a lot of reaction 29 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 1: not only to the schedule, but just the shape of things, 30 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: the shape of the National Football League heading into twenty 31 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: twenty the season, and there's still some concern about obviously 32 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: there's some concern about whether this season will be played 33 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 1: in its entirety though you normally play. Will it start 34 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: on time? I get all that, and there's so much 35 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: going on in our world that's so much more serious. 36 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: But what have we done for the get go here, Johnny? 37 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: We talk football, So let's go You ready? Absolutely? Absolutely? 38 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: And I know I sent you a text earlier today 39 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: and I referenced a certain eighties slash nineties sitcom. It's 40 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: it's nineties, give us credit nineties, Okay, Um, yeah, because 41 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: the airing of the grievances, maybe we should do this 42 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 1: every Friday, like a Friday festivals. Um, but I just 43 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: felt like this one after after kind of digesting everything 44 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 1: in the schedule and kind of hearing some of the 45 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: things that have been talked about the last couple of days, 46 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,959 Speaker 1: I'm like, you know what, I've got a bunch of 47 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: grievances building up that we need to air the grievances 48 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: at some point tonight. And I know we will, but 49 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: I think we're gonna do it right off the bad shot. Okay, 50 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 1: I don't want to wait. I think that if you 51 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 1: have grievances with the schedule, you got to get them 52 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 1: off your chest. It's bad to hold these things inside. 53 00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: It's very healthy to come out with things that are 54 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: bugging you. So why don't you go first? Give me one, 55 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: Give me one pre events, and we'll go back and 56 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: forth with whatever we've got. Okay, Because I wrote them, 57 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 1: I wrote them all down, and I'm like, I got 58 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 1: nine of them. I got nine of them. Nine nine 59 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: number one? What's number one? Hey? How did Chicago Bears 60 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,519 Speaker 1: doing the playoffs last year? Oh? That's right, they stunk. 61 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: They did not make the playoffs last year. How many 62 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 1: times they made the playoffs? Last how many every years? 63 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 1: Once and then they double dunk their way out of 64 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: it in twenty eighteen. Once that's all they've done, and 65 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: he gets four primetime games. Who wants to watch Mitch 66 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: Drubisky trip all over himself on national television four times 67 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: four times? Well, you might want to revise that because 68 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: it might be Nick Foles you're watching tripping all over himself, 69 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: or Foles trip all over himself four times on prime 70 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: time television. You know, I'll give you one word Chicago, 71 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: not the tap, the city, the number three largest market 72 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: in the United States of America, and you know, the Bears. 73 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say the Bears move the national needle. 74 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: I think that's kind of overrated. I think that's way overrated. Yeah, 75 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: probably because they've been so bad. And you know Jeff Joniac, 76 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: who we both like, he's the voice of the Bars. Yeah, 77 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: great guy. You know, I feel there are certain people 78 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: in this league that I feel bad for when when 79 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: their teams don't do well, and he's one of them. 80 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: And because it's Chicago, it's the Bears. And there's nothing 81 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: bigger in Chicago than the Bears, not the Cubs, not 82 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 1: the Bulls, Blacks, none of that. No, none of that. 83 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: I mean, it's the Bears, right. And I remember Madden 84 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 1: said once when the Bears were they flashed, I think 85 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: in their early ohs a bit and he said, he said, 86 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: oh yeah, the NFL loves it when the Bears do well. 87 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 1: The nation loves it when I don't know if the 88 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: nation loves it, but look, the league loves it. The 89 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,159 Speaker 1: networks loves it. The networks love it when the Bears 90 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: do well. Are they gonna do well this year? Johnny? 91 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: Are they gonna do well? I don't think so. I 92 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: don't think. I think I don't see. Okay, I look 93 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 1: at that and look a lot of this has to 94 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: do with do you believe in the guy pulling the trigger? Well, 95 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: obviously Chicago didn't because they went out and they traded 96 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: for a guy in Nick Foles. It probably the Jags 97 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: were gonna release. So I mean, you tell me, are 98 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: you scared of this wide receiver corps, Alan Robinson, Cordell Patterson, 99 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: Anthony Miller, Javon Wims, Ted ginn Riley Ridley? Are you 100 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,559 Speaker 1: scared of this? No offensive line, not very good running backs. 101 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 1: Their best running back is a guy that's five five 102 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 1: I'm not. I mean, okay, the defense legit, The defense 103 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: is legit, but they're still dealing with Chuck Pogano as 104 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: a defensive coordinator, and it just it didn't fit like 105 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: it did with Vic Fangio, at least not yet. So Shade, Yeah, no, no, 106 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: I mean, Chuck's a good coach, don't get me wrong. 107 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: I just think Vic was the absolute right fit for 108 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 1: what they had on the defensive side of the ball, 109 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 1: the Apps, I mean, and that defense will be very 110 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: very good, don't get me wrong. The defense will be 111 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 1: very very good. Eighth of the league last year. Yeah, 112 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 1: very very good defense, don't give me. But honestly, when 113 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: it comes to primetime games, what is it that you want? 114 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: You want to see quarterbacks, you want to see offense. 115 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 1: That's what most people want to see. Um, and it's Chicago. Okay, 116 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: But you got me though, you You're like, all right, 117 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: Chicago is what what market two or number three? Number three? Okay? 118 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: It's New York, LA, Chicago and Chicago. Look, but to 119 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: back you up, it's not the same thing. And look, La, 120 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: I don't think the Rams move the needles. The needles. 121 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,280 Speaker 1: The Chargers don't move the needle. That's another one. That's 122 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,679 Speaker 1: another one. I move the needle. The Giants are always 123 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 1: going to get their share. It's not like the Cowboys, 124 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: who I talked about last night, or I talked about 125 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: that this morning. I'm on the air a lot. I 126 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: talked about that this morning, that the Cowboys. I don't 127 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 1: want to go out of order here. We'll stick with 128 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: the Bears here. It's not like, you know, the Giants 129 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: are always gonna get their share because they carry New 130 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: York and New York is so big it comp I 131 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 1: don't know how many other major NFL markets it adds 132 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: up to, but you know, you could take three of 133 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: the small markets and it's still not as big as 134 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 1: what the Giants fan base draws in New York. And 135 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: it's just that way. So you're always going to see 136 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: them in primetime. Yeah, okay, so Chicago big market, I 137 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: get it. Where does Las Vegas sit on the television market? Okay, 138 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: it's that's not the point. The Raiders are a national 139 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: team and they've got brand name recognition that carries a 140 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: lot of weight. But all four games out in Las Vegas, 141 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: oh wait, they're all also they have four home primetime games, 142 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: four primetime games out in Las Vegas. Boy, they better 143 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: hope that place is ready to go, otherwise it'll be 144 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,679 Speaker 1: like live from the Alamo Dome. It's Munday night football 145 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: with the Raiders. I mean, what's gonna happen if they 146 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: can't play there? Are they gonna go back to Oakland 147 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: and do the third final year? You know, they had 148 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: a final year two years ago, a final year last year. 149 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: Are they gonna have another final year in Oakland if 150 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: they can't play in Vegas this year? Look, I am 151 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: all four putting the Raiders on prime time early in 152 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: the season. Give everybody throughout the NFL, all the fans, 153 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: give them an opportunity to see what that place is like, 154 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: all lit up, like. I'm totally for that. I'm all 155 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: for that, totally fine with that. But four of the 156 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: four of the eight home games in prime time, yeah, 157 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: I know, four of the eight. That's well, it's Vegas, Johnny, 158 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: and you want it to be at night if you 159 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: can help it, because people can't get to a noon kickoff. 160 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: They just can't do it. That's a good point. Okay, yeah, 161 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: that is a good point. But does the nation want 162 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 1: to see the Raiders? Are they? I mean, I know 163 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: the Raiders are national team, like I do understand that part. 164 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: So um and of course let me say that some 165 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: of my festivals is a little bit in jest. But 166 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: four of eight prime time games, all right, all right, 167 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: let me have one here, Okay, go ahead. The AFC 168 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: South is so disrespected. Oh and go and look, I'm 169 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: about brand name recognition, and I know that that's why, 170 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: and I talked about it with Seth Seth and Sean 171 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,199 Speaker 1: this morning a little bit. It is because of the 172 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 1: lack of brand name recognition. There's no doubt if this division. 173 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: And as I say that, look, I don't want to 174 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,679 Speaker 1: be pro division guy, like anybody needs to win a 175 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:27,959 Speaker 1: super Bowl and that's really gonna help the division, which 176 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: is a fact, but I don't want to see anybody 177 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: else do it except for the Texans. But it would 178 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 1: really help if somebody would just flash and win a 179 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: super Bowl just to help the division out. Not that Look, 180 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,319 Speaker 1: it's not like a college conference, but and I know 181 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 1: I'm kind of going college conference guy on you here. 182 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: But the fact that this division, Johnny, yet one Sunday 183 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: night game, one Monday night game in the division. Correct, 184 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: that's it, and it belongs to the same team, the 185 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans. All of a sudden, the Titans are America's 186 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: darling team. I don't think so. How do you know 187 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: put play the Titans play? No, it's it's so unappealing. 188 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 1: It's unappealing football now it from a look, I respect 189 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: the team, don't get me wrong. It's a hard team 190 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: to beat, and drama is drama. But when you're talking 191 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 1: about selling the sizzle of the NFL, how is DeShawn 192 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: Watson not on Sunday Night Football? I don't get it. Now, 193 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: he could be flex there he the team. But if 194 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,079 Speaker 1: I'm a network executive, I'm thinking I gotta put that 195 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: guy on national TV. So exciting, and you know, Seth 196 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: even dropped in a well the offense you know could 197 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: have performed. Listen, it's DeShawn Watson, low scoring high school. 198 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: That nineteen to sixteen victory over the Dallas Cowboys, that's 199 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 1: what the final wasn't overtime? Right? Yeah? That was an 200 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: exciting game. That was super exciting with a great finish. 201 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: Watson was huge in that game. Look, you cannot discount 202 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: what he does for your football team. The Buffalo play again, 203 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: they're down sixteen, nothing wasn't a high scoring game, but 204 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 1: guess what he was so thrilled in that context contest, 205 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 1: it's not just about, you know, putting up huge points, 206 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 1: it's what happens at the moment of truth. With number four, 207 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: he's got to be on more and I think the 208 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: entire division has to be on more in prime time. Okay, 209 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: that's very good. I actually had I had that one down. 210 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: I don't know if I had it as uh as 211 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 1: nicely as you had that. And because it's on my 212 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: notes in front of me, there are probably some bad 213 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: words on here. Um, so I gotta make sure I 214 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: don't read you can you can add to it if 215 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: you have any other points to bring I mean, Thursday 216 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:35,679 Speaker 1: nighter with the Jags, right, the Jags are on a 217 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: Thursday every Yeah, Tennessee got Tennessee's at Green Bay week sixteen, 218 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: and I hope they get absolutely housed in that game. 219 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 1: I hope. I hope Jordan Love just goes all over them. Well, 220 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,200 Speaker 1: later on in the show, we gotta bring up your 221 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 1: point about the Titans and how how things might get 222 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: a little rocky for them down to stretch. We got 223 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 1: to talk about that later in the show. Yeah, they've 224 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 1: got with the next grievance. Oh yeah, oh okay. That 225 00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: that brings me to, uh, this grievance, which has to 226 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:05,319 Speaker 1: do not so much with the Indianapolis Colts themselves. You know, 227 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: I like Chris Ballard. I mean, I'm I'm a big 228 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,599 Speaker 1: fan of Ballard, like you know, like that guy. I 229 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: like Frank Reich. I don't really have anything against the 230 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:20,839 Speaker 1: Colts per se. However, let me present to you the 231 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:25,079 Speaker 1: Cults schedule and stop me when things get really rough 232 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 1: for them. Okay, let's start Week one at Jacksonville, Na, Minnesota. 233 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: Week two, Minnesota at home. Okay, tough ball game, all right? 234 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 1: Week three home Jets, Week four at Browns, Week five, 235 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, at Bears, Week five at Browns, Week six, Bengals, 236 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 1: Week seven, bye, week eight at Detroit. What I mean, 237 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 1: that's how they start the schedule. Meanwhile, we've got the Chiefs, 238 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 1: the Ravens, the Steelers, the Vikings. Honestly good agree it is. 239 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: It's for ridiculous. In fact, as I look beyond it, 240 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,319 Speaker 1: they're tough games because everybody plays the AFC North and 241 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: the NFC North in the AFC South, everybody plays those teams. 242 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 1: They've got the Ravens at home and the Packers at home. 243 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 1: So do the Texans. But the Texans are playing the 244 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: first place schedule, so they have the Patriots, they got 245 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,839 Speaker 1: the Chiefs, Chiefs. We know the rest of it in 246 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 1: those divisions. Look, the Colts have the Raiders. They're gonna 247 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: be in Vegas. They're one of those Vegas teams. Yeah, 248 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: that's a late afternoon game. Well it has to, because 249 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: that's specifically I was thinking of them. Was another National 250 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 1: game and what was it? All the Jets? They get 251 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: the Jets and Jets and the Raiders. Now, I will 252 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,440 Speaker 1: say after they start that way, but that's the thing, 253 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 1: you know, how these things go. You get on a 254 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: good you get a good start, you go, you know, 255 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,200 Speaker 1: six and one, five and two. With that start, then 256 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: reality does hit them. Baltimore and home Thursday night at Tennessee, 257 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: back home for the Packers, home for the Titans against 258 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 1: US here at Las Vegas, and then we are back there, 259 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: followed by a couple days after Christmas at Pittsburgh. So 260 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 1: they get there's in the second half. But sometimes you 261 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 1: just gotta get through that first half. And if you 262 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 1: get through the first half and you're five and two 263 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: or six and one, because you beat up the Patsy's 264 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 1: all of a sudden you feel like, hey, you're maybe 265 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: better than you are, I mean, and it gives Philip 266 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: Rivers time to kind of get him. I'm m, yeah, 267 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: it does. They have a nice look. As we all know. 268 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: They brought these into the schedule. Yeah. I brought this 269 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: up this morning, and I brought this up I probably 270 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: did yesterday too, that you just never know how it's 271 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 1: gonna go. We always talk about the Jags Week two 272 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: last year and how tough that game was for the Texans. 273 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 1: They won it, but it was such a tough game. 274 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: And I don't know if I brought it up here yesterday, 275 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 1: but every game is huge. The Patriots there, they had 276 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 1: the Dolphins final game regular season. All you got to 277 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: do is beat crappy Miami and you get your bye 278 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: and you're at home and your name is the New 279 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 1: England Patriots, and we all know the coach and the 280 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 1: quarterback are But they couldn't beat Fitzy and the Dolphins 281 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 1: in December in New England to get the buy. That 282 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: shows you you cannot look past anybody or assume anybody's easy. 283 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 1: As they say that we're just doing an on paper 284 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 1: analysis here, so yes, on paper, it looks like what 285 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: a tremendous way to start the season for the colt 286 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: and break it a new quarterback and new players in 287 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: just the new campaign for them.

And I don't mean to make light 387 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: of the situation, I really don't. We all have to 388 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 1: have a little bit of a sense of you ever 389 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 1: to get through this. So anyway, a lot of us 390 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 1: have been spending what's that. You're right about that? Yeah? Yeah, 391 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 1: do you have to have a little bit of a 392 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 1: sense of humor. There's no question about it, all right. 393 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:07,440 Speaker 1: So I watched I'm all caught up with Jordans. I'm 394 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: not caught up with those arc obviously. Tiger King was, 395 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: you know, a month ago. I mean, I need some 396 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 1: other stuff here, so we'll see how it goes. I 397 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,399 Speaker 1: think I'm okay. There's one coming out you might be 398 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 1: interested in. I haven't yet. It's on Netflix and it's 399 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 1: called Hollywood and it looks sort of interesting and my 400 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,160 Speaker 1: daughters has been kind of interested in it. Obviously Hollywood 401 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,680 Speaker 1: hitting hitting close to home for them. Depending documentary or 402 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 1: scripted it, No, it's scripted. It's scripted. One of the 403 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 1: guys from Glee, Darren Chris um so kind of a 404 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 1: musical um drama, sort of put together from like nineteen forties, thirties, 405 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: forties Hollywood where the Hollywood sign says Hollywood Land, not 406 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 1: just Hollywood. It's a Holly. Yeah, so it looks kind 407 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: of interesting. I watched a little two minute trailers like 408 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: you might get me on this one, So that's one. 409 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,400 Speaker 1: Have you seen the Ali documentary on HBO? I forget 410 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,399 Speaker 1: what it's called, but yeah, it is that good is 411 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:14,439 Speaker 1: because I really feel like it went through without much fanfare. 412 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 1: It wasn't like the Jordan thing, and it's Ali. I mean, 413 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: this is one of the greatest athletes that ever lived, 414 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 1: and notable for so many different things and in so 415 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 1: many different ways. I thought it would get a little 416 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 1: more fanfare because I was thinking, who has made a 417 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 1: good Ali documentary lately? And I guess they have, So 418 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna check that one out too with Vander Yeah, 419 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: it's called what's my name? Right? Yeah? Yeah, I liked it. 420 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 1: I liked it because it's it's two I think it's 421 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: two parts if I remember correctly. Um, And it was 422 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 1: done by Maverick Carter, and some of the some of 423 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 1: the things that Maverick Carter's done have been really good, 424 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:53,640 Speaker 1: some have been not in Mamorick Carter. If you wonder 425 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: who that is, that's uh Lebron, one of the Lebron 426 00:23:56,119 --> 00:24:00,440 Speaker 1: James guys. They do all their marketing and yeah, so 427 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 1: they do the barbershop on HBO, and so they put 428 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 1: this together. I'm Mark. I will tell you, I really truly, 429 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 1: I truly enjoyed it. I really liked um what they 430 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 1: did with it. And it just really goes back through 431 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 1: Ali's fights and the behind the scenes footage just some 432 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: of the stuff you get, not like not like you 433 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 1: get um in the other the documentary came out, Um 434 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 1: yeah when We're Kings. Yeah, it's not quite like that, 435 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 1: um this is, but it's still pretty good. I still 436 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 1: really liked it. All right, I'm gonna check that one 437 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 1: app All right, we're doing the festivals off season Festivus 438 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 1: airing of the schedule grievances, and we've already complained about 439 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 1: a variety of things, including the Bears getting all their 440 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: primetime games. Uh, all right, is it my turner? Your turn? 441 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 1: Am I up, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go. Okay, 442 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: go ahead, you go, all right, Patriots five primetime games? 443 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 1: Are we serious here? I mean this is Look. The 444 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: reign of terror is over. He's gone. And the Patriots, 445 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this, the Patriots are not the brand 446 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 1: of say and I hate to give them credit. The Cowboys. 447 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 1: I went through this this morning a little bit. All right. 448 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 1: The Cowboys are a brand that has endured as a 449 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:21,120 Speaker 1: polarizing magnet for eyeballs on national television. I'm not saying 450 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 1: it's right or whatever, but it's a fact and you 451 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,400 Speaker 1: have to give them their due for that. They haven't 452 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: won a championship in a quarter century, all right, and 453 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 1: they're working out a lot longer than that. Okay, it's 454 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:35,359 Speaker 1: the time is ticking away. Yet they still draw eyeballs 455 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 1: because they're them. I don't think the Patriots are that. 456 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: I think there will be some curiosity factor. But Johnny, 457 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: if they come out of the gate and they're an 458 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,920 Speaker 1: a team and it's just not that interesting with Stidham, Yeah, 459 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,879 Speaker 1: I don't see why they get five primetime games. You know, 460 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 1: and all right, I'm gonna save my next one. But 461 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 1: that was definitely one of them that jumped out to 462 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:57,199 Speaker 1: me like, hey, it's over. I'm not saying don't give 463 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: them any but the fact that they get more than 464 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 1: the Texans is a little strange to me, considering there's 465 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 1: no marquee player there on offense other than Julian Edelman. Yeah, 466 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 1: An Edelman's not carrying you through five primetime games. Nope. 467 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 1: But the Buffalo Bills they got four, and I think 468 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 1: I think they deserve four because I think that's a 469 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: team that people should pay attention to. So I texted 470 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:23,680 Speaker 1: south Sycopacho is a silent reporter for the Bills. I 471 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 1: texted them, I said, when's the last time y'all had 472 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: a Sunday night game at home? Because last year they 473 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,920 Speaker 1: got flexed into that Steelers game, but that was in Pittsburgh. 474 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 1: And he said, two thousand and seven was the last 475 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:43,880 Speaker 1: time the Bills played a Sunday night game at home? 476 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,320 Speaker 1: And they got at NBC. I mean, was that even 477 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 1: NBC Football? Oh, that's a good question, because the old 478 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: sid that I'm near the cutoff date. I can't remember 479 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 1: if it was oh seven or eight. I can't remember, 480 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: because the NBC Sunday Night Football is different than those 481 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 1: ESPN Sunday Night Football edules were. Those were not as attractive. 482 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: NBC against the Kreme de la Creme game, you know, 483 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: they want that in that premo TV slot right there. Yes, 484 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: as I've said numerous times, ESPN doesn't really get that 485 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 1: Marquee game. Now, the Monday night slate for ESPN this 486 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: year is pretty good. It really is. There are only 487 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: a few teams on there that don't live up to 488 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 1: the standard. But the Jets are one of them, and 489 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 1: they have New York. The Cardinals are one of them, 490 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 1: and they could be really exciting, and they're playing a 491 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 1: really good team. I forget who it is, so they 492 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 1: might be the Cowboys. I mean, so good in terms 493 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 1: of draw all right, I'm not saying that NBC Sunday 494 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 1: Night Football started August six, two thousand and six, so 495 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: this was an NBC game, But that just goes to 496 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: show it's been thirteen years. He said that game with 497 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh last year was literally the first Sunday night football 498 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 1: game that Buffalo had had at all since the two 499 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: thousand and seven game that won against the Patriots. And 500 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,680 Speaker 1: they ended up getting four primetime games, so I was 501 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,640 Speaker 1: I was happy for them. I like seeing teams get 502 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 1: an opportunity because they've built things up and the I 503 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 1: mean the Bills obviously could be somebody that we faced 504 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:15,880 Speaker 1: down the road the playoffs like they were last year. 505 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 1: Um and and maybe I shouldn't say that, but they've 506 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,639 Speaker 1: really kind of, piece by piece brick by brick built 507 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:25,200 Speaker 1: it um up up in in Buffalo. And obviously it'll 508 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 1: ride on Josh Allen. Uh so were like it does 509 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: for a lot of teams. But there's a lot of 510 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 1: talent around Josh Allen. We saw that last year. But 511 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 1: they've got a Monday night game. The Bills go to 512 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: San Francisco, they take on Pits, or they're at the 513 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 1: Patriots for Monday night game and then they get Pittsburgh 514 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 1: at home in Week fourteen. Um, as I just quickly perused, 515 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 1: they got a Thursday night. They get the Chiefs. Oh, 516 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 1: they get the Chiefs on a Thursday night at Buffalo. 517 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 1: Oh at Buffalo. Good wow, Go go go Bills, Go 518 00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: Bills smash them. Dolphins get one prime time game and 519 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 1: it's a Thursday. So that's just the you know, that's 520 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: the Jags game obligatory. Yeah, that that's it. Three Thursday Night, 521 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: I think is the jat yeats. So they've replaced the 522 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: Titans in the annual Titans Jags Thursday Night invitation. You know, yeah, 523 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 1: I guess that's it because that that was a regular thing. 524 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: And remember the uniforms when they went with the color rush, 525 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 1: and the color rush for the Jags was more like 526 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 1: bile rush. It was. It was. It was pretty bad, 527 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 1: so bad Mark it was. It was I can't even 528 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 1: tell you rush. Yeah, that's what it was. It was bad, brutal, brutal. Okay, 529 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: I've got a I have a schedule festivals, but it 530 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 1: more it more so pertains to us, and I want 531 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: to make sure that I I I'm gonna qual not 532 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: really qualify what I'm saying, but I'm gonna just gonna 533 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this upfront. I'm gonna say it up 534 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: front to it. DeAndre Hopkins is one hell of football player. 535 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 1: He's one hell football player. We watched him do his work. 536 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: He's offer an Arizona now. But I'm just gonna preface 537 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 1: it with that, Okay, because everything that I have seen, 538 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 1: everything that I have seen even before the schedule came out, 539 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: you and I talk. I brought this up late in 540 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 1: the show on the Wednesday, I think, sit there, Freulan 541 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: projected our win total to be six point seven, six 542 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 1: point seven, And then somewhere I saw the lines posted 543 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 1: for games and it showed the Lions, the Browns, and 544 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: the Bears all being favored over US. Not playoff teams 545 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 1: last year, not even close to the playoffs last year, 546 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 1: favored over US this year The Bears. Yeah, and the 547 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 1: Browns and the Lions. The Browns, I might might could 548 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 1: give you because that's gonna be a pretty talented team 549 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 1: skill player wise, and they've added some pieces of the 550 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 1: offensive line. I'm not sure the defense is completely there yet. 551 00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 1: I think they're waiting for I still think they've got 552 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 1: holes over there, to be honest, Garrett back, Yeah, GAYL 553 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 1: Miles's back and that will help them um and he 554 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 1: will probably unleash. So I do think the Browns would 555 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 1: be better now should they be favored over US? Hard 556 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 1: to say, however, So Mark, let me ask you this, 557 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 1: what what has changed from what has changed from our 558 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: team in twenty nineteen to twenty twenty. Now I know 559 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 1: the answer to that Okay, I know the answer. I 560 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 1: just mentioned him. But what else has changed? What else? 561 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 1: What else has changed? What else has been subtracted from that? 562 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 1: Well to Sean Gibson, Okay, Deshan was let go after 563 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 1: a year. He couldn't. I mean, honestly, he just couldn't 564 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 1: stay healthy h through a full year with us, and 565 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 1: I don't know, I can't remember how many games he 566 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 1: actually played. So we played a number of games without 567 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 1: Deshaun Gibson. But um, no offense, you know, it's a 568 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 1: ripple in the water. Basically no Carlos Hide. Okay, Well, 569 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 1: we traded for Carlos Hide, basically trading and we want 570 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: to use the race, but trash for trash. Martie's ranking 571 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 1: was not gonna make the team we trade in Kansas City, 572 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: Hyde was not gonna make Kanna Cy's team brought him 573 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 1: over a thousand yard rusher. But oh, by the way, 574 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 1: we've upgraded at that position with David Johnson over Carlos Hide. 575 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 1: Then we bring in Brandon Cooks. Now, not DeAndre Hopkins, understood, 576 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 1: but Brandon Cooks is gonna be a heck of football 577 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: player as long as he stays healthy. So what I 578 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:28,040 Speaker 1: am growing frustrated with is I see these articles, Oh, 579 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 1: the Texans at a horrible offseason. The Texans just had 580 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 1: this bad off Well, that's the narrative, Johnny, You're not 581 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 1: You're not gonna change that. It's it's the narrative. And 582 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 1: when you get one, uh, it's very difficult to shake it. 583 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 1: But the Texans drawing poor reviews in the offseason is 584 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 1: almost like an annual tradition, is it not. It feels like, well, 585 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 1: I mean this time last year, you didn't draft the 586 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 1: right tackle, the correct tackle, I should right, you didn't 587 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 1: draft the correct tackle. You should have moved up. Oh 588 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 1: my gosh, you got hoodwinked. And what your offensive line 589 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 1: is gonna be terrible? Well, what did they do? They 590 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: address the offensive line? And I think that, you know, 591 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 1: people have to look closely at this situation and say, 592 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: all right, the line's gonna be better than it was 593 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen. Right, they have a year under their 594 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:16,280 Speaker 1: belt now and they're good to go. So and you 595 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 1: had two rookies occupying a lot of the time, all right, 596 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 1: and that's forty percent of your line, two rookies, and 597 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 1: one of them got hurt. And so that now they'll 598 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: both be back healthy second year in the NFL. Let's go, 599 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 1: they'll be better than they were last year. The line 600 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 1: is gonna better than it was last year. And you 601 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 1: mentioned the running back position, and yes, Hopkins, I get 602 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: it with the subtraction. However, when you add when you 603 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: subtract him and add Randall Cobb and Cooks, you're like, 604 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: huh interesting, And then you're thinking about if somehow Fuller 605 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 1: can stay healthy and all the other stuff, it could 606 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 1: be really exciting. Now, they're no guarantees in life. But 607 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 1: you know, I said the moneyball thing, like, yeah, you're 608 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: not going to replace DeAndre. You're gonna try to recreate 609 00:33:57,680 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 1: the production in a different way and spread it out. 610 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 1: And everybody, it's funny, Johnny. Everybody criticizes how the offense 611 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,360 Speaker 1: was last year. Yet here they are making changes to 612 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 1: it and trying to reconfigure it. And people are like, well, 613 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,320 Speaker 1: it's not gonna be any good like because they know 614 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:20,800 Speaker 1: right well, because because you traded a generational type receiver 615 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,600 Speaker 1: like Okay, DeAndre Hopkins is is a great receiver, but 616 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 1: is he worth four wins? You know it's four wins? 617 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't want to say I don't want 618 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:31,879 Speaker 1: to say anything bad about it because he know I don't. 619 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: I don't listen, I don't. I don't either. DeAndre Hopkins 620 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:36,160 Speaker 1: is and that's why I said it early on. He's 621 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,000 Speaker 1: one heck of a football player. Yeah, but Mark, you 622 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: could take the who's the best, Who's the best receiver 623 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 1: of all time? Jerry Rice? If Jerry Rice has been 624 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: playing at Texans and got moved off to Texas, two 625 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: different team with that create with with all the other 626 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 1: things that have been added to the offense, and bringing 627 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 1: back robi Um as a corner, bringing back Vernon Hargraves, 628 00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,360 Speaker 1: attacking the defensive side of the ball in the draft, 629 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:02,760 Speaker 1: with two value performers like Ross Blacklock and John Grenard, 630 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 1: JJ Watt coming back help. I look, I know they 631 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,480 Speaker 1: are there. Ifs to a lot of those things, Oh 632 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:09,840 Speaker 1: what has employed? But yeah, but when JJ has been 633 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 1: on the field, he's been damned dominant when he's been 634 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 1: on the field, and you can't control when somebody rips 635 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 1: a pack. So from that perspective, Mark, it's really like 636 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,759 Speaker 1: I just kind of give that doghead turn, like six 637 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:24,440 Speaker 1: point seven wins? Really did the Colts do? I mean, 638 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: listen to Forrest Buckner really good football player, But what 639 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,720 Speaker 1: else did the Colts do? Philip Rivers scares you. Philip 640 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:33,839 Speaker 1: Rivers by the end of last year, couldn't even get 641 00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:35,319 Speaker 1: out of the pocket. You know, by the way, he's 642 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 1: gonna coach a high school team in twenty twenty one, 643 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: where's his heart gonna be? Well? How many wins last 644 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 1: year with a Charger team that did have talent? Right? Yeah? 645 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:47,880 Speaker 1: Did have talent right? A ton yeah. So look, you're right, 646 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: that's where the four wins thing was coming from in 647 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:52,320 Speaker 1: your mind, because you're going to you know, high sixes 648 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:56,360 Speaker 1: in that average or whatever that point configuration. Look, I 649 00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 1: don't know, I think they are they they do lack 650 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,279 Speaker 1: respect on the national scale, and clearly maybe the prime 651 00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 1: prime time or lack of prime time appearances is reflective 652 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: of that. Just go out and play when you know, 653 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:11,719 Speaker 1: prove everybody wrong. You know, a lot of the media 654 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 1: has not picked that like last year. I don't know 655 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:17,319 Speaker 1: what the predictions were like from everybody, but I heard 656 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:18,799 Speaker 1: a lot of nine and seven. I heard a lot 657 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 1: of oh, this is an eight and eight schedule going 658 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:22,279 Speaker 1: into last year, didn't you. I mean I heard a 659 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 1: ton of that, A ton all over the place, all 660 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 1: over the place because the quarterbacks they were facing. There 661 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:29,880 Speaker 1: was somebody I think that pick six and ten. I 662 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,480 Speaker 1: can't remember, Yeah I heard that on radio or what. 663 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:36,160 Speaker 1: But but but here's here's the thing, Mark, I wanted 664 00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:39,320 Speaker 1: to air it now and the Festivus are airing of 665 00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:44,719 Speaker 1: the grievances because when the Texans the last couple of years, 666 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:46,279 Speaker 1: when people said that I'm not gonna be very good, 667 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 1: oh at three, you know, when they start winning, I 668 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,520 Speaker 1: feel sort of like Kermit drinking the tea, just kind 669 00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 1: of like, well, yeah, I told you, I told you, 670 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 1: told we told you. But you know it's fine. You know, 671 00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 1: I don't, I'm not, I don't. I don't do that 672 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,839 Speaker 1: once they start winning. So I'm airing the grievance now, 673 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,279 Speaker 1: well ahead of the fact, and then I'll just you 674 00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 1: know what I think, once the Texans winning game, I'll 675 00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 1: just I'll just do the Kermit tea sipping gift and 676 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 1: just leave that out there. Or I think a lot 677 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:13,799 Speaker 1: has to go right for them, but I could say 678 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 1: that about all teams. You know, a lot has to 679 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:17,759 Speaker 1: go right. Look even look at the Chiefs. You know 680 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 1: you brought it up yesterday. If the Dolphins don't don't 681 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 1: be or maybe Pendergast did this morning. If the Dolphins 682 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 1: don't be the Patriots, they don't get that by right, 683 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:28,759 Speaker 1: and the universe changes, and maybe they don't win the 684 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 1: Super Bowl at that point, maybe they still do. How 685 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 1: did they look during the season when Mahomes was banged up? 686 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:36,239 Speaker 1: They had Matt Moore in there for a little while, 687 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:38,600 Speaker 1: not so hot, but they got it going. The whole 688 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: thing is, you got to survive these sixteen games and 689 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,960 Speaker 1: get there somehow someway. And here's another thing that I 690 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 1: don't think we discuss enough. Seven playoff teams per conference. 691 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:54,160 Speaker 1: There's only one by now. So the seating, the setup, 692 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:57,320 Speaker 1: you know, you're not playing for that bye unless you 693 00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,480 Speaker 1: have that supreme record. You're playing for us set up 694 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 1: or a seating. You know you'd like to be at 695 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 1: home two weeks in a row, if at all possible. 696 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,040 Speaker 1: But you know what I'm saying here, you're not gonna 697 00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 1: get that buy. You're gonna be playing on that wild 698 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,360 Speaker 1: card weekend unless you have the best record in the conference. 699 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,759 Speaker 1: So it's it just feels like a different dynamic this 700 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 1: year going in. Just get in, figure it out, and 701 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:20,839 Speaker 1: you've got to be playing well that time of year. 702 00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:23,320 Speaker 1: And I know, like I think, some of the doubt 703 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 1: about the team from the pundits is, well, you can't. 704 00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:28,960 Speaker 1: You haven't done it in January. I get it. They 705 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:31,440 Speaker 1: gotta get past that divisional round, that's the key, But 706 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 1: don't you. I mean, they've proven that they can get 707 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 1: there to the postseason. Why are we doubting them so much? 708 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 1: You know collectively that they can get there. They've proven 709 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 1: they can get there. Not that it's automatic, it's gonna 710 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 1: happen every year, but they've proven that they're good at that. 711 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,400 Speaker 1: Now they've gotta get good at the next part. So 712 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 1: we'll see how they how they do it this year. Yeah, 713 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:56,080 Speaker 1: take take take the absolute next step. And when we 714 00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:59,839 Speaker 1: ran into Kansas City, that team was as healthy as 715 00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 1: it had been all year long. Yet we were playing 716 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 1: without Gibson, a Die, Titus Howard, whomever else. I mean. 717 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 1: So anyways, j j WA was plus playing only a 718 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 1: second game back. Let's go toe to toe, full on, 719 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 1: full on. Look, they're great football team. Don't get me 720 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 1: wrong with the can't see Chiefs. The Chiefs are a 721 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:21,400 Speaker 1: great football team. But if I hear Chiefs fans, this summer, 722 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:23,439 Speaker 1: we're gonna be sixteen to know, like they were saying 723 00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:27,840 Speaker 1: last summer, I'm gonna I'm gonna have another Festivus sometime 724 00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 1: in July and say, let's see how you handle Let's 725 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:35,800 Speaker 1: see how you handle success here, Let's see how you 726 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:37,880 Speaker 1: do it, because there have been some teams over the 727 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:41,280 Speaker 1: how many ever, you know years that didn't handle success 728 00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 1: very well. They weren't able to keep it going no 729 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:45,400 Speaker 1: matter what they had. You know, Dan Marino went to 730 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:47,120 Speaker 1: Super Bowl in the second year, and everybody's like, oh 731 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 1: my god, a Dolphins are gonna be in the Super 732 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 1: Bowl every year for Marino's career and never went back. 733 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,840 Speaker 1: So should have gotten eighty five but couldn't do it 734 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 1: all right. The next up, you pointed something out about 735 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 1: the Titan schedule that we need to bring up to 736 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 1: everyone here.

Everybody 832 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 1: in our department did a ton on the twenty twenty 833 00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:12,239 Speaker 1: schedule and we're all looking forward to it. Let's hope 834 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,080 Speaker 1: that we can play it in its entirety. It starts 835 00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:16,239 Speaker 1: on time, all of it. That would mean the nation 836 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:19,840 Speaker 1: is doing much better and coming out of this thing together. 837 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:23,160 Speaker 1: All right. We're doing the offseason festivals, airing at the schedule. 838 00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:26,080 Speaker 1: Who grievances and we've had many so far, Johnny, and 839 00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:28,920 Speaker 1: maybe we'll get back to some. But let's do this. 840 00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:32,719 Speaker 1: I've promised this. The Titans, this is a team that 841 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:35,200 Speaker 1: did better than anybody else. They did not win the division, 842 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 1: but they beat the Patriots on the road, They beat 843 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:38,680 Speaker 1: the Ravens on the road. They went to the AFC 844 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:42,480 Speaker 1: Championship game, and they had a shot, like Hamilton said, 845 00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 1: they had my shot, and they took their shot, but 846 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:47,880 Speaker 1: they did not make their shot. They lost to the 847 00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 1: Chiefs in the AFC Championship game. And I was not 848 00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:53,719 Speaker 1: rooting for them. Sorry, it's you know, I just I 849 00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:55,440 Speaker 1: can't do it. Sorry, I can't do it for them. 850 00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I hate the Chiefs too, but the Titans 851 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:01,200 Speaker 1: are much worse. But the Titans here they come. They 852 00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:03,759 Speaker 1: got Ryan Tannehill back, they got Derrick Henry back. They 853 00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 1: lock and load for a run it back kind of campaign, 854 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:08,800 Speaker 1: trying to do it again, try to win the division 855 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:10,719 Speaker 1: this time and play these playoff games at home if 856 00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:14,680 Speaker 1: they possibly can. But their schedule, and you were right 857 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:18,600 Speaker 1: on this yesterday when it came out that final seven 858 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:22,200 Speaker 1: games they have, what five on the road? Give me 859 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:26,000 Speaker 1: those five road games they have in the last seven tilts. Yeah. 860 00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:29,000 Speaker 1: One thing that you know I heard, I heard Ron 861 00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 1: and Clinton mentioned this, and we mentioned this every now 862 00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:36,359 Speaker 1: and again. But what I've realized is the Texas play 863 00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:38,759 Speaker 1: a first play schedule. All that really means. It's the 864 00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:42,279 Speaker 1: difference in two games. It's two games, that's all. It is. Big. 865 00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:46,239 Speaker 1: They're big games, yes, but it's just two games. It's 866 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:49,000 Speaker 1: not like you're playing every division winner throughout the NFL. 867 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:51,200 Speaker 1: It's just where you match up. So that means the 868 00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:53,960 Speaker 1: Texans got no let me hit you with something, Mark 869 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:57,439 Speaker 1: before we get to this. Yeah, okay, the Texas finished first, 870 00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:00,360 Speaker 1: so they got to face Kansas City and New England. 871 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:08,760 Speaker 1: The Titans finished second. They face the Broncos and the Bills. 872 00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:14,919 Speaker 1: So from my first place, second place standpoint, and again 873 00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:16,960 Speaker 1: this goes back to your comment, and I know exactly what. 874 00:48:17,120 --> 00:48:19,160 Speaker 1: I know what you're gonna say. We got it's got 875 00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:22,640 Speaker 1: all play out, But from a the Broncos could be 876 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:24,839 Speaker 1: a lot better than they were even when we faced them. 877 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:27,600 Speaker 1: And the Bills are gonna be really good versus Okay, 878 00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:30,240 Speaker 1: we know what the Chiefs are and the Patriots. Really 879 00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:33,799 Speaker 1: I would if you had to pick, Okay, you got 880 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:37,080 Speaker 1: to pick a two game at Denver home Buffalo at 881 00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,320 Speaker 1: KC home New England, I think you might have wanted 882 00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:46,759 Speaker 1: to pick Case in New England at KC daunting, New 883 00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:50,960 Speaker 1: England at home with Stidham. Thank you. The Broncos. Wait, 884 00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:54,080 Speaker 1: where are they playing Denver? Johnny at Denver the opener? 885 00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:56,479 Speaker 1: They've got the second half of that Monday night double header. 886 00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 1: All Right, that's tough. That's in that game. Tough. It's 887 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:02,879 Speaker 1: late and it's Denver and it's gonna be crazy. So yeah, 888 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:04,840 Speaker 1: they have a tougher go. It's funny because it's like 889 00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:08,160 Speaker 1: last year when you were playing the first place team 890 00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:10,680 Speaker 1: in the AFC North from twenty eighteen, and that was 891 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:13,600 Speaker 1: the Ravens. And look, I know the Ravens. Now you 892 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:15,760 Speaker 1: look at them, Oh my gosh, top seed in the AFC. 893 00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:18,719 Speaker 1: They were amazing except for the playoffs. But at this 894 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:20,920 Speaker 1: point last year we thought, well, maybe the Ravens are 895 00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:23,960 Speaker 1: gonna be tough. But it won't be ridiculous. And I 896 00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:26,080 Speaker 1: was happy that the Colts, and we all know what 897 00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:28,600 Speaker 1: they did in the previous season, that they had to 898 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:31,920 Speaker 1: go to Pittsburgh. I was thrilled with that. I was thinking, Oh, Pittsburgh, man, 899 00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:34,239 Speaker 1: that's gonna be brutally got Roethlisberger. You're on the road, 900 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:38,080 Speaker 1: forget it. So it feels like that, and again, you 901 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:40,480 Speaker 1: never know what's gonna play out. Pittsburgh looked a lot different. 902 00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:43,000 Speaker 1: Although the Colts did lose that game, thank you, and 903 00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:46,000 Speaker 1: the Texans did lose to the Ravens, So I like 904 00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:48,279 Speaker 1: what you say about that? Go on? Yeah, now the 905 00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:50,960 Speaker 1: last five games, because when I first started looking at 906 00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:53,400 Speaker 1: their schedule, I was like, oh my gosh, three of 907 00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:56,560 Speaker 1: their last four are on the road. And then I 908 00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:59,239 Speaker 1: went a little further, I'm like, wow, five of the 909 00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:01,919 Speaker 1: last se even or on the road. So they play 910 00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:06,440 Speaker 1: a Thursday night game November twelfth, against the Colts at Tennessee. 911 00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:11,799 Speaker 1: Then from that point forward, all Sunday games they play 912 00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:16,879 Speaker 1: at Baltimore at Indy. They get the Browns at home. 913 00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:21,000 Speaker 1: Then they go to Jacksonville, which has always been at 914 00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:24,560 Speaker 1: issue for them, yea. Then they get the Lions at home. 915 00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:26,920 Speaker 1: That's kind of the only the layup, if you will. 916 00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:30,400 Speaker 1: Then they go at green Bay at Houston five on 917 00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:34,000 Speaker 1: the last seven, at Baltimore, at Indy, at Jacksonville, at 918 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:39,759 Speaker 1: green Bay at Houston to close the season. Yeah, yeah, 919 00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 1: that's salty at the Ravens's brutal. The Cults they beat 920 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:46,600 Speaker 1: them last year, but it wasn't a flukey thing. But 921 00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:49,040 Speaker 1: they had a special teams you know what was it 922 00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:51,759 Speaker 1: a fun but blocked the field goal retarded for a 923 00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:54,120 Speaker 1: touchdown that swung that game. It is the first time. 924 00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 1: I mean, they don't win at Indy usually, but you know, 925 00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:00,760 Speaker 1: maybe they broke the seal there Cleveland. Did ever know? Jags? 926 00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,239 Speaker 1: You're right? I mean I remember in what year was 927 00:51:03,320 --> 00:51:08,719 Speaker 1: that they lost to the Jaguars up there in sixteen? Right? 928 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:12,640 Speaker 1: That was awful? Yeah for them? And then the Packers 929 00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:14,120 Speaker 1: on the road is gonna be tough. I mean it's 930 00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:16,920 Speaker 1: December twenty seven on a Sunday night in Green Bay. 931 00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:21,560 Speaker 1: Good luck with that. And then here and here could 932 00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:24,680 Speaker 1: be for a lot of stuff. Man, he could be 933 00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:29,600 Speaker 1: for the division on January third, boy, that's the latest 934 00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:32,840 Speaker 1: you can possibly finish the regular season January third in 935 00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:36,280 Speaker 1: this current format, anyway, So that is a tough stretch. 936 00:51:36,360 --> 00:51:39,920 Speaker 1: If they get the division, they have earned it, as 937 00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:43,040 Speaker 1: John Housman would say, no question about it. They will 938 00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:46,560 Speaker 1: have earned their keep and deserve every bit of that. 939 00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:49,680 Speaker 1: Because that looks really brutal from here, Yeah it does not. 940 00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:54,200 Speaker 1: Now they've got a three in a row stretch at 941 00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:58,239 Speaker 1: home before the bye, so they played two for their 942 00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 1: byas week seven. Then yeah, they're buyas week seven. But 943 00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:08,799 Speaker 1: they're tough, but they're those games at home are Pittsburgh 944 00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:13,279 Speaker 1: Buffalo in US yep, those are the three games they have, 945 00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:16,360 Speaker 1: and we wear that last game before um, before that 946 00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:18,320 Speaker 1: buy and then we come home and play the Packers 947 00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:21,239 Speaker 1: the next week UM at home. But they get their 948 00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:23,680 Speaker 1: home games up front, so they get Jacksonville week to, 949 00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:27,799 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh week four, Buffalo week five, Houston week six. But man, 950 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:33,600 Speaker 1: that's a that's a fairly daunting home schedule home run 951 00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:37,440 Speaker 1: right there to have to face considering what you have 952 00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:40,200 Speaker 1: to do at the back end of the schedules. So 953 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:43,719 Speaker 1: the Titans and the Texans both it's just sort of 954 00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:46,680 Speaker 1: flip flop. The Texans first four games out of the 955 00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:50,279 Speaker 1: shoot are just and I'm not you know, they're not 956 00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:52,640 Speaker 1: breaking any news. That's that's as rough as it could 957 00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:56,720 Speaker 1: possibly get with those first four. But we don't close 958 00:52:56,840 --> 00:53:00,120 Speaker 1: with that seven, not not at all. They close with 959 00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,480 Speaker 1: five out of seven on the road facing the Ravens 960 00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:05,160 Speaker 1: of Colts, the Jags, the Packers, and the Texan. That 961 00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:07,000 Speaker 1: Packers game will be a Sunday night game too, and 962 00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:11,440 Speaker 1: that Cults at the Titans game on November twelve, that's 963 00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:15,880 Speaker 1: a Thursday Night or at home. Yep. And they most 964 00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:18,400 Speaker 1: the Bears at least they don't have to travel for 965 00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:21,759 Speaker 1: their sake. Yeah, but that's tough, you know, the later 966 00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:23,279 Speaker 1: in the season you have a Thursday Night or the 967 00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:25,120 Speaker 1: tougher it is now. The Texans had one with the 968 00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:28,160 Speaker 1: Colts at home last year, and boy, how about the 969 00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:31,000 Speaker 1: Colts having to travel for Thursday Night pretty late in 970 00:53:31,040 --> 00:53:33,759 Speaker 1: the season, you know, at a pretty significant time of 971 00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:38,439 Speaker 1: the year. Two years in a row. That's rough. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. 972 00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:41,160 Speaker 1: I think they should play on Thursday and then Saturday 973 00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:43,560 Speaker 1: and then Sunday and I don't know, whatever they gotta do. 974 00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:45,840 Speaker 1: They can play extra games that they want. Let let 975 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:49,080 Speaker 1: them do it. That's fine. So having seen all this, 976 00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:54,120 Speaker 1: I'm really curious to know when when all the like 977 00:53:54,320 --> 00:53:57,520 Speaker 1: so called Well, they're never official predictions. But when the 978 00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:01,040 Speaker 1: more cemented predictions come out, who's gonna win the AFC 979 00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:03,320 Speaker 1: South according to the pundits, who are they going to 980 00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:05,280 Speaker 1: give it to? I think they'll give it to Tennessee. 981 00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:09,120 Speaker 1: I think I think that. I think people will be 982 00:54:09,719 --> 00:54:14,920 Speaker 1: sort of uh suede by the And I'm in air 983 00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:16,839 Speaker 1: quotes right now, Mark, So I'm in my office doing 984 00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:21,120 Speaker 1: the air quotes. The rough off season the Texans had 985 00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:26,840 Speaker 1: versus the run that the Titans made in the AFC playoffs, 986 00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:31,480 Speaker 1: beating a bat and bad, a less than great New 987 00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:33,839 Speaker 1: England team on the road. And I'll give it to them. 988 00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:38,200 Speaker 1: They played their guts out against Baltimore, yet they gave 989 00:54:38,280 --> 00:54:41,759 Speaker 1: up over five hundred yards of total offense. Baltimore just 990 00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:44,120 Speaker 1: couldn't put it in the end zone when they were 991 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:47,279 Speaker 1: able to do that all year long. So credit to 992 00:54:47,360 --> 00:54:50,360 Speaker 1: the Titans for that. But that really is the difference. 993 00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:53,880 Speaker 1: The Texans blew it against the Kansas City Chiefs. They 994 00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:56,720 Speaker 1: had a quote unquote rough off season. Look at Tennessee 995 00:54:56,760 --> 00:54:58,400 Speaker 1: there in a run it back mode after going to 996 00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:03,120 Speaker 1: the AFC Championship game. We're going with them. I would 997 00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:08,120 Speaker 1: think they've had more significant changes just by drill Casey gone, Logan, 998 00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:13,640 Speaker 1: Ryan gone, I mean, lou Jack Coughlin gone. Personnel losses. 999 00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:17,239 Speaker 1: I would think that the Titans have had more significant 1000 00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:22,560 Speaker 1: personnel losses than the Texas did. It's not a bad point. 1001 00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:24,799 Speaker 1: But again, when you have your quarterback and your running back, 1002 00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:27,200 Speaker 1: and the running back is that running back, people look 1003 00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:30,239 Speaker 1: at that. That's the brand name recognition I'm talking about now. 1004 00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:33,040 Speaker 1: I said the AFC South lax in that. But as 1005 00:55:33,080 --> 00:55:36,000 Speaker 1: far as the Titans, unto themselves, that is their brand. 1006 00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:41,160 Speaker 1: Rabel Tannehill, Henry, that's it. And they have those guys back, 1007 00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:43,879 Speaker 1: they feel like it's run it back time. We'll see 1008 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:47,279 Speaker 1: what happens. Not soon enough, over three months away, still 1009 00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:50,440 Speaker 1: from the scheduled preseason opener.
