Speaker 1: because we're excited to see the Texans in action. And Johnny,

31
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 1: I was excited to see practice yesterday. Man, that was

32
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 1: fast and furious. My head was on a swivel. You know.

33
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: You had ones against the twos on each end of

34
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: the fields that we were overlooking. So and sometimes sometimes

35
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: it was perfectly in phase where you could watch a

36
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 1: play here to play there, to play here tennis, But

37
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: other times they were snapping them all at about the

38
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: same time. And I didn't like that, I know, I

39
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 1: told my dad. As I was watching, I was like,

40
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 1: this is perfect, like run a play, run a play.

41
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: And then there was a little bit of delay and

42
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 1: then they got in the same I was like, oh no,

43
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: but I was. I literally was writing as fast as

44
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: I possibly could I had. I was trying to be organized,

45
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 1: you know, when I'm watching practice at home, I trying

46
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: to be organized with my notes. I got columns and

47
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: where I put things, and this is one on ones

48
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 1: at the same time seven on seven, so I can

49
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 1: kind of go to there were I was just writing stuff,

50
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:35,959
Speaker 1: and a lot of times the shorthanded I just put

51
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: a number so you know, Brent Scarlin makes a play

52
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: to hey fifty seven, good rush used hands all and

53
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: you'll remember later or whatever. But then I'm putting like

54
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,399
Speaker 1: double number, like numbers from Green Bay too, so I'd

55
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 1: have to put GB front there. I was like, I

56
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 1: was trying to track so many different things, and so

57
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: I missed obviously all the hubbub that had happened on

58
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 1: the farfield with the fight and they of the togetherness

59
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: and get together this. Yeah, it was just it was

60
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: just getting to know one another. Pass today, yeah, yeah,

61
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 1: pats today, that's today off tomorrow, Yeah, Listen, you gotta

62
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: get to walk through. You've got to get You've got

63
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: to get this work in when you can. You only

64
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: get two days, so a lot of reps. I was

65
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: thinking about a lot of It's a lot of reps Yesterday, Today, Thursday.

66
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 1: They're gonna practice Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and I think they'll

67
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 1: light it up a little bit. But then Detroit Wednesday, Thursday,

68
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 1: next week full joint practice with them both days in

69
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: the heat, and then you've got the game next Saturday.

70
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: You've got a lot of reps coming up in this

71
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: next week and a half. Well, obviously you've there are

72
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: still some guys that have got to work up to

73
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: kind of build up what's it ramp up to game week? Yeah,

74
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: you know week one game week, so you've you know,

75
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 1: Matt Khalil. Still, the more reps you can get to

76
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: kind of ramp him up, just as as and then

77
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 1: there are some you've got to get evaluation on. But

78
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 1: at what point, as the coaches and trainers and everybody,

79
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 1: how do you think, Wow, maybe we're breaking them down.

80
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 1: Are we building them up? Or we breaking them off?

81
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: How does how do you go about that? I mean,

82
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 1: I think to me, with the What I think happens

83
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: from from here on out is, I think you've got

84
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 1: yesterday and today with the Packers, You've got Wednesday and

85
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: Thursday with the Lions. Those are the days you're gonna

86
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 1: be in pads. I think. I think the other days

87
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: you're gonna back off a little bit, right, and like

88
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 1: over the weekend, right, I think over the weekend you're

89
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 1: gonna back off. You're gonna do some things that you

90
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 1: know don't include pads at all. You're I mean, you're

91
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 1: just gonna be in in jersey shorts and jerseys and

92
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 1: and work for a couple hours, get the legs loose,

93
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 1: move the pace of practice, but not have to hit

94
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: them one another. Make sure you know all your play

95
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,480
Speaker 1: scripts and everything run clean. Make sure everybody's sound with

96
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 1: their assignments. Maybe you install another couple of things that

97
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,280
Speaker 1: you've been wanting to put in, So you put those in.

98
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 1: You work on a few more situations, but every time

99
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,840
Speaker 1: that you don't see a different colored jersey from now on,

100
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: you're you're out of pads. That's that's my guess, because

101
00:04:55,960 --> 00:05:00,160
Speaker 1: you really want to get good pad work against then

102
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: against the packers and against the lines. I think we

103
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 1: talk about, you know, the areas that we want to

104
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 1: see growth, we actually growth on the offensive line. Well,

105
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 1: you're seeing Rashaan Garry, seen zis Zadarius Smith, You've seen

106
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 1: Preston Smith. You're seeing you're seeing a lot of guys

107
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: that upfront are gonna be very difficult to block. Well,

108
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 1: then the Lions come to town and they're bringing now

109
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 1: Mike Daniels, a Shawan Robinson to Shawn Hand. I don't

110
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: know if Trey Flowers would be completely healthy by then,

111
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: but I would imagine they need him. He's still on

112
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 1: pupp at this point, so if he's healthy, then you

113
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,280
Speaker 1: get to see him too. That's gonna be great work

114
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: for your offensive line. So I would think you'd want

115
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 1: to get as many reps as possible. I mean, if

116
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 1: you think about what they get a lot of reps

117
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: and team, but just one on one reps. I mean,

118
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: JJ got two reps Wit and you got two reps.

119
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: I mean that's all you get in one on once

120
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 1: because you have so many guys to cycle through. So

121
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: the more you can do that against a different colored jersey,

122
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 1: I think the better. All Right, let's get the hot

123
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,599
Speaker 1: rains here from Crane babe as the Texans and Packers.

124
00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: Packers practice again today and Bill Bryan, who after practice

125
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,360
Speaker 1: talked about how it went with the Packers. Yeah, it's great.

126
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,280
Speaker 1: I mean anytime you can go up against another really

127
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: good team and see different looks and you know, see

128
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 1: how different people do things, it's great. Great competition, a

129
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: lot of plays, a lot of situations. Guys competed hard.

130
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 1: It was good day, all right. So there's a general

131
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: thought on what happened. And speaking of the general he

132
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,720
Speaker 1: will join us at eight thirty today John McClain from

133
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: the Houston Chronicles, so stay tuned for that. Now here's

134
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,719
Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien talking about some of the younger folk on

135
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: the Texans roster and how this benefits them. You know,

136
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: I think that's a big part of it. You know,

137
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: young guys traveling for the first time. I mean some

138
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 1: of those guys getting on a plane, getting on a bus,

139
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,159
Speaker 1: getting in a hotel, getting into a routine on the road.

140
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 1: I think is important. You can do that here for

141
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 1: a couple of days now, actually three or four days

142
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 1: until the game, so I think it's really important. And

143
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:53,919
Speaker 1: then they can watch the veterans how they do things.

144
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,840
Speaker 1: But it was good. It's a great facility, nice day,

145
00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 1: so it was really good. Remember that loves being on

146
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 1: the road. He loves having everybody sequestered. You'll eliminate the distractions,

147
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 1: especially here in Cream Bay. I mean this is one

148
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: place where you might be able to say, yeah, the

149
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 1: players are fine, don't worry about anything. And I mean

150
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: that in a good way. This is a terrific place

151
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 1: to live. It's a wonderful city. And I hesitate to

152
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: even call it that. It's a town. It's title town.

153
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: It's so nice here and the Good West in summertime

154
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: it's just gorgeous. So it's a great place to visit.

155
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,679
Speaker 1: Get some good solid practice in with this team. Now, Johnny,

156
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: who's ahead? Who's ahead right now? In your opinion? Between

157
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: these two squads now Green. They did not have a

158
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: good year last year, but they do have Aaron Rodgers,

159
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: which elevates everybody that his presence elevates the entire roster.

160
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 1: Without him, I have no clue what it would look like,

161
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 1: but they do have him. And yesterday I might look,

162
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: I'm not you looking at this stuff, but I know

163
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 1: what I see. With a great quarterback, he's a great quarterback.

164
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 1: I mean there were a couple of times where once

165
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: in particular, he rolled to the right and threw a

166
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: frozen theater rope to Jimmy Graham along the sideline when

167
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 1: the play looked about all all but over, and I

168
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: just had to tip my cap figuratively speaking to him.

169
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 1: He's he's great, But what about these two rosters? What

170
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 1: are you seeing? First of all, its pertaining to Rodgers.

171
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 1: I don't know that I've ever seen a better thrower

172
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: of the football. I mean, just to throw that. I

173
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: mean I saw that throw and everybody had sort of

174
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 1: stopped on the play because he had scrambled and it

175
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: looked like he's gonna go out of bounds, and he's

176
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,439
Speaker 1: literally going out of bounds, and he just went and

177
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 1: he's literally flicked like you're throwing darts at the bar,

178
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 1: and right on the money to Jimmy Graham. And you know,

179
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 1: Graham doesn't have to toe tap. I mean, he catches it.

180
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: He could have turned up of the field. The ball

181
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: caught itself, it was it lodged his spleen. I will

182
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 1: say this, and I I watched yesterday's practice and I

183
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 1: try to be First of all, it's a little weird

184
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 1: to see, you know, having grown up here before moving

185
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 1: to Euston and seeing that gee which I grew up

186
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 1: with as a little kid, like worshiping it and then

187
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: like I'm wearing a different logo. My uncle did not

188
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 1: like that. When he saw me with the Texans logo on,

189
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: he was very he was very upset. But he got

190
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: pasted it. He got pasted it. Anyways, I say this,

191
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 1: and you know, today could be totally different, but I

192
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: felt like yesterday it was very clear what was definitely

193
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,960
Speaker 1: the more talented team, and that was us. It was

194
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: to me, it was very clear. Now, I will say

195
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: they did not have Jamal Williams, they did not have

196
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones running back. They didn't have Kevin King at corner. Uh.

197
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: They were also missing Josh Jackson at corner their nickel corner.

198
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 1: So they were missing they were missing some key players

199
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:48,320
Speaker 1: for them. But as far as talent level goes, just

200
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,719
Speaker 1: looking out there and going WHOA, Like they tried to

201
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: run the football on us and it was not happening, Like, not,

202
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: not at all. They couldn't budge the first group. I

203
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 1: saw Bmac afterwards and I was like, bro, they couldn't

204
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 1: move on. He goes we were was all right, And

205
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 1: I was like you more and all right, and he

206
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: just kind of looked at me kind of noted. It

207
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 1: was like they couldn't move reader. They couldn't move blocks

208
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 1: in against the run. And the coverage units I thought

209
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 1: were very good yesterday. The secondary, the coverage was very

210
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: good yesterday. I noticed that right away. I thought in

211
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 1: seven on seven, yeah, the coverage look good. And usually

212
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:24,960
Speaker 1: seven on seven, especially the guy like Rogers, I heard

213
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 1: nothing from that side of the field when I when

214
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 1: I would look down the other way and look, I

215
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 1: don't know that the Texans offense was was a thousand

216
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 1: percent crisping clean. But the tight ends got the ball

217
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: a lot. Yesterday I was going off the field and

218
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 1: I happened to see cal McNair and kel looked at

219
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: me and said, by tight ends had a good day,

220
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: didn't Then I was like, yeah, they did all of them,

221
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: every single one of them made catches, including the one

222
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: at the very end. Collie Wearing made a brilliant touchdown catch,

223
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 1: got his feet in there. They had reft there yesterday

224
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:54,679
Speaker 1: and he was standing right there saw it and he

225
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: pointed the ground two feet touchdown and no replace. So

226
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 1: no replay. So it was good and I think he

227
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 1: still would have had on the replace. I was standing

228
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 1: right in line with it, and I was like, I

229
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 1: think he's got this. The tight ends were phenomenal. So

230
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: I felt like walking out of there like, Okay, this

231
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 1: is a very talented Texans squad. Yes, like all teams,

232
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 1: there's gonna be an Achilles heel if you will, Yes,

233
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 1: is the offensive line exactly where we want it? No,

234
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: that is the secondary, you know, rock solid. No, but

235
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 1: they had a good day yesterday against the very talented

236
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,560
Speaker 1: wide receivers and a really talented future All Fan quarterback.

237
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: So that's where you got to start looking, going, Hey,

238
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,320
Speaker 1: that's progress. That's a lot of progress. That's better coverage

239
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 1: than I saw at the end of the year when

240
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 1: they were facing Nick Foles in Philly and Baker Mayfield

241
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,319
Speaker 1: in the second half and Andrew Luck. So that was

242
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 1: really good coverage yesterday and that made me feel pretty

243
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 1: good about this team. But I felt like the Texans

244
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: came up here and made a significant point that yeah,

245
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: we've got that talent and if it comes together and

246
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 1: we can stay healthy. That was key because there weren't

247
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 1: a lot of guys that we had out of that practice.

248
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 1: Nick Martin was out out. JJ went out later said

249
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 1: he had a little bit of a groin thing that

250
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 1: he said hypened up a little bit, but they took

251
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 1: him out. He may not practice today and may not

252
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 1: play Thursday. But that that was really about it that

253
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,440
Speaker 1: we had missing. So we were we were kind of

254
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 1: full chamber ready to go. And I think that really

255
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: showed yesterday. Well we'll see how today goes. I thought

256
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,319
Speaker 1: social media was a big winner yesterday as well. With

257
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 1: the bike ride over to the practice facility. It was awesome.

258
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 1: Why breaking the seat? How about the ESPN headline on

259
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 1: the carl we were having dinner and the headline on

260
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 1: the crawl bottom of the screen. We all see those

261
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 1: and it said, what breaks child bike? I hate you kid,

262
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 1: I know I'm gonna break your bike. I mean you

263
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 1: have to write a headline carefully, okay. And he sat

264
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:52,839
Speaker 1: on the bike the seat broke. Yeah, he's kind of

265
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 1: sitting on a bike that probably holds one hundred pound

266
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 1: person and he's replacing the bike. We put a GoPro

267
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 1: on DJ reader for the ride, so that video's up

268
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 1: on all our social media stuff and Houston Texans dot

269
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 1: com and the Texans app So go check that out.

270
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 1: Did you hear at the end of that. I don't

271
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 1: know if he gets to the end of it and

272
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:14,960
Speaker 1: he gets off the bike and he says to her,

273
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,200
Speaker 1: an only reader would have found this out. He says

274
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 1: to her, good luck with your softball season. So in

275
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 1: that time that they got on the bike, they must

276
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 1: have been talking about that, and we don't. She said

277
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 1: he was a softball and so at the very end

278
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: you hear him say, hey, good luck with soft like

279
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 1: he's he would have he's the guy that would pick

280
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,079
Speaker 1: it up. But Brandon Dunne pushed the young man in

281
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 1: the wheelchair. Yeah, he had a helmet on. Oh, Mark,

Speaker 1: great images from yesterday. I'll give you another one. During

284
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 1: the skirmish or whatever you want to call it, Yeah,

00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 1: you pointed this out to me. You see Show and

286

Speaker 1: Robie on a knee on the sideline. They were already

287
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: there on a knee on the sideline. Observed they were

288
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 1: out of that reb right and and then you know

289
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 1: the bench is clear. You know, this is massive melee

290
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 1: and they're just still on the knee like, yeah, I'm

291
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:06,719

299
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 1: progress in one key area of the Texans that we've

300
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 1: been talking about all offseason long. He he I hesitated

301
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 1: to say, paid tribute to it when he said something

302
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 1: positive about it, and it was his first take. Who

303
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,920

00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 1: No Texans Training champ Blood continues. We're at lambeau Field

309
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: inside the stadium at the atrium area underneath the gigantic

310
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 1: Lombardi Trophy, which was made the Super Bowl Winner prize

311
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 1: after nineteen seventy. Let's see, the league's championship trophy was

312
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 1: awarded to the Baltimore Colts, winners of Super BOWLS five.

313
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: It was after Lombardi's death that Pete Roselle, I'm reading

314
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 1: from the I'm paraphrasing from the inscription here. Yeah, LOMBARTI

315
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 1: died in September of nineteen seventy, so that Redskins stint.

316
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 1: I just felt like that was a little later, but

317
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 1: it wasn't. So did you callen replace Lombardi? Yes, okay,

318
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 1: so his So Lombardi's last year here was sixty seven.

319
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 1: He stayed in sixty eight, but he was It was

320
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 1: Phil Bankston who took over as the coach. Yeah, and

321
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 1: Lombardi was kind of up in the you know, he

322
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 1: was up in his office as he was staying away.

323
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 1: He was still the GM, and he was like, I

324
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 1: gotta go back, and coach went back and coach to

325
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 1: sixty nine season in Washington. Then got sick in seventy

326
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 1: and then he passed away. That was it. Then it

327
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 1: became the Lombardi Trophy for the Super Bowl winner. And

328
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 1: obviously Lombardi he's everywhere in this town, I mean streets

329
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 1: named after him restaurants, and you know, it's like George

330
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 1: Washington slept here. When you live in the Northeast, you

331
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 1: see a lot of that kind of stuff. Lombardi eight

332
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 1: here is the thing in Green Bay. Well, I think

333
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 1: what's interesting about Lombardi was he was a New Jersey,

334
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 1: New York guy, I mean, and he comes here. I

335
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 1: mean he had been with the Giants. You know, you're

336
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 1: in that mecca Fordham and then you get yeah, Fordham,

337
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: and then you come here, Yeah, and which is very

338
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 1: Unnew York. This is not exactly New York. Now, obviously,

339
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 1: anytime you come to Green Bay, you're coming to a

340
00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 1: you know, an original franchise. It started in nineteen nineteen.

341
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 1: In fact, right up above us is that nineteen nineteen

342
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,880
Speaker 1: kitchen and tap, which is gorgeous. By the way, We

343
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 1: were gonna go there for lunch, but apparently it was packed,

344
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: like trying to get in was just a nora. I

345
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 1: think we have a group of Texans going in there today.

346
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: It's gorgeous up there, and so I can imagine that

347
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 1: there was a there was a ton of respect the

348
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: Packers had. The Packers were the model franchise, winning you know,

349
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 1: a ton of championships from the thirties and forties, but

350
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,200
Speaker 1: then they got to the fifties, it just went off

351
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 1: the edge. I mean, they just they were a mess.

352
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 1: And the little Barty came in and time he got

353
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 1: here in nineteen fifty nine, I think they went like

354
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,879
Speaker 1: seven and five but didn't make the playoffs. And the

355
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 1: actually they made the playoffs in sixty but they lost

356
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 1: the Eagles. And then from sixty one on they just

357
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 1: they won championships. They just won champions They won two

358
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,840
Speaker 1: in sixty one, sixty two, sixty three, sixty four. Paul

359
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 1: Horning was out for gambling, came back at sixty five one,

360
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:55,160
Speaker 1: sixty five, sixty six, sixty seven, won the first two

361
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 1: Super Bowls, and he was like by the time sixty

362
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 1: seven was over, it was like all right, but he leaves,

363
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 1: it goes downhill again. It was downhill again. And then

364
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 1: you have that whole Dicky era. I mean, going through

365
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 1: the seventies and eighties was so hard. You got the

366
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: magic Man of them comes in to change everything, mean

367
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 1: farm and Holmegrin coming in with Reggie White. When I'll

368
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,679
Speaker 1: never forget when you know Farve is here in ninety

369
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 1: two and Reggie. Sorry, Jonesie, this is probably a rough

370
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 1: moment for you. But Reggie White is one of the

371
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: first big time unrestricted free agents in the NFL. And

372
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: Mike Holmgren calls him. This is the story for how

373
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 1: Reggie White gets to Green Bay. He calls him and

374
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:39,879
Speaker 1: he gets his voicemail and Holmergren says, Reggie, this is God.

375
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 1: He wants you. I want you to go to Green Bay.

376
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 1: And he hangs up and Reggie calls him back and

377
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 1: he's like, that was a good one, Mike. And he

378
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 1: ended up coming here. I mean nobody was coming let

379
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 1: me signed unrestricted free agent deal. First of all, nobody

380
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 1: was signing unrestricted free agent deals at that point. But

381
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,400
Speaker 1: he chose to come here. And I remember Sports Illustrated

382
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 1: cover they had like eight different jerseys and like which

383
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,360
Speaker 1: one for Reggie, and I don't remember if Green Bay

384
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 1: was on there or not, but green Bay Reggie White

385
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 1: coming here just really established like, Okay, the Packers are legit,

386
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 1: They've they've got an opportunity. But they were running into

387
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 1: Dallas every year and then finally got over that hump,

388
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 1: and then one at ninety six, and that just said

389
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: all of this emotion where we are today, the Tailgate

390
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 1: Village over there, Title Town on the other side of

391
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,239
Speaker 1: the street. All of this was set in motion by

392
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 1: that championship in ninety six. I got to salute the

393
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: Packers because from their Twitter account, they've posted at least

394
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 1: two videos of JJ Watt. Yeah, welcome back, JJ Watt.

395
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 1: He's such a state hero is and you know the

396
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 1: stuff he does in Texas as far as being charitable,

397
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 1: the Hurricane Harvey fund raising, all of everything he does,

398
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,440
Speaker 1: and the foundation is active up here. By the way,

399
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,640
Speaker 1: that does not go unnoticed by everybody in the state

400
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 1: of Wisconsin and certainly the Green Bay Packers franchise. So

401
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 1: that's nice. I mean, I was almost gonna reply tampering,

402
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,199
Speaker 1: but it was nice that they saluted him that way.

403
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,360
Speaker 1: All right, let's get to what we promised here. This

404
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: is a national scribe. It's Pete Prisco of CBS Sports,

405
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 1: and we heared a piece of this last night. But

406
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,919
Speaker 1: let's hear from Prisco. I had a very brief conversation

407
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 1: with him after practice. I was a little surprised about

408
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,120
Speaker 1: one of the position groups he pointed out doing well

409
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:20,159
Speaker 1: for the Houston Texans. Let's listen in I got Pete Prisco,

410
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:21,919
Speaker 1: I'm good, all right, So here we go. All right,

411
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 1: So Pete Joy practice with the Packers for the Texans.

412
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 1: When you see here today, what stood out to you?

413
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:27,960
Speaker 1: I thought the defensive backs had a good day. I

414
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 1: thought they covered well, the Texas defensive backs. I thought

415
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:33,480
Speaker 1: they did a nice job. Wearing at a great catch

416
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:34,880
Speaker 1: on the side. I think he's gonna be a big

417
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 1: time player for them. It's gonna take a little time,

418
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 1: but he can catch the football. The new look offensive

419
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,359
Speaker 1: line did some interesting things. That big. They're big line.

420
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 1: It's a big group across the front, so and that's

421
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: to me, that's the most important thing. Can they protect

422
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: the quarterback? I haven't seen your preseason picks yet, but

423
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: what about the AFC South? What do you think? You know?

424
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,480
Speaker 1: I haven't picked it yet, but I think any of

425
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,119
Speaker 1: the teams can win in I think three of the

426
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 1: teams stand out to me. I think the Titans and

427
00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 1: fourth team. I think Jacksonville and Nick Foles will be

428
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:04,120
Speaker 1: the be really good again. I think, of course Andrew Luck.

429
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: Depending on the health, I think they're gonna be good.

430
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 1: And if this team can protect the Shawn Watson, they're

431
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,199
Speaker 1: gonna put up a ton of points. So again, I

432
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 1: think it's a wide open division. What about Jacksonville, I

433
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:14,400
Speaker 1: know you've been down there, so what have you seen

434
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 1: so far? You seem optimistic. Well, their defense is going

435
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 1: to be really good again. I think there was some

436
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 1: bad stuff that infiltrated that locker room last year and

437
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,359
Speaker 1: got it got ugly, and some of those guys are

438
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,239
Speaker 1: gone now and there's a more cohesive unit. They're going

439
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 1: to be dominant on defense again. They let some things slide,

440
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 1: little things last year and they were still a good defense.

441
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 1: I mean, people forget they shout out the Colts late

442
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:36,399
Speaker 1: in the season when they were on a run, so

443
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: when they had to do it, they could do it.

444
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,159
Speaker 1: I think they'll be very good there. Health killed them

445
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 1: on the offensive line. They need to get healthy there

446
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 1: again this year. But the quarterback, I mean the quarterback

447
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 1: they have before is in capable of making the plays

448
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 1: this guy could make. Is the reign of terror for

449
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: New England going to end anytime soon? No, as long

450
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,399
Speaker 1: as Bella, jugg and Brady are there, there's still the

451
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 1: team to beat, and I don't think there's any question

452
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 1: about it. Look, the Chiefs are good. I think the

453
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 1: Chargers are really good. Mark, I think they're they're gonna

454
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:03,920
Speaker 1: be one of the better teams in the league. Until

455
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: you take down Brady and Belichick, they're still the team

456
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: to be. Now, what about the AFC North, because there's

457
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: a lot of difference of opinion there. See, everybody's on Cleveland.

458
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 1: But until you learn how to win close games, big

459
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,640
Speaker 1: games and December games, come talk today, because I think

460
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,400
Speaker 1: that's the big step. You've got to learn how to win.

461
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 1: And how are the personalities gonna mesh? You know, how's

462
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 1: that offensive system going to look with Kitchens as a

463
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:28,920
Speaker 1: head coach and Monk and the offensive coordinator and Kitchen

464
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 1: calling plays and who's he getting along with? And you

465
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 1: know Beckham when he complains, is he gonna gripe? And

466
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 1: I mean there's so many unanswered questions the offensive line.

467
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: The tackles aren't great either, so many unanswered questions for

468
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 1: me that I'm not ready to doing. Look, I look

469
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 1: across that. I see the Steelers. Right, they got Ben Roethlisberger.

470
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,920
Speaker 1: They could still score, and they'll still be good on defense,

471
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 1: and they'll be physical until you So for me, I'm

472
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 1: picking the Steelers. So here we are on the shadow

473
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 1: of lambeau Field. You've been all over the league? Is

474
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: this the best atmosphere? What's your favorite? What stands out

475
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 1: to you around the league. This is a great atmosphere.

476
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 1: I mean this small town environments testing. You know, they

477
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,119
Speaker 1: have a stadium and a facility in the middle of

478
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 1: a neighborhood. I mean you to look across the street.

479
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: There's houses right over there. People live across the street.

480
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 1: That doesn't happen in a lot of a lot of places.

481
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: There is a great atmosphere. Is one of the best.

482
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 1: What else? What else do you like around the league?

483
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 1: Like Kansas City or game day on Kansas City's fantastic.

484
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: I was just in Minnesota. Their new facility is as

485
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:26,120
Speaker 1: good as anything I've ever seen. It's phenomenal. And they

486
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 1: had a night scrimmage on Saturday and it was like

487
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 1: an old school that had fireworks afterwards. It was like

488
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 1: this old school, small town field to it still even

489
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,200
Speaker 1: though they're in Minnesota. Vikings one more for you. Will

490
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 1: the NFL ever go to eighteen games? What do you

491
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 1: think happens there? Yes, they will. I'm a big believer

492
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:45,160
Speaker 1: that they should get rid of to expand the rosters.

493
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,159
Speaker 1: Get you know ten, twelve, thirteen, more guys, make the

494
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,360
Speaker 1: game day rosters more active, give guys more time off

495
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 1: in the offseason. Pay everybody more money. They'll agree to it.

496
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 1: I guarantee you they will go to eighteen games at

497
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,920
Speaker 1: some point. Thanks a lot. You got it, all right.

498
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,639
Speaker 1: That's Pete Prisco joining us yesterday. And I don't agree

499
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 1: with him with the eighteen games. I do find it

500
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 1: interesting what he said about the secondary. That's the first

501
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,119
Speaker 1: thing he pointed out. I said, what stood out to you?

502
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,159
Speaker 1: Said the Texans defensive backs? Look what did I tell

503
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 1: you yesterday after practice? You're like, what'd you think? That

504
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,119
Speaker 1: was the first thing I said, And you're like, Prisco

505
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 1: said the same thing. And I felt that way too

506
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 1: watching it. But I didn't trust my own eye. I

507
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:24,119
Speaker 1: gotta get I get some validation here. I think I

508
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,399
Speaker 1: just saw. Now, that was one day and it was

509
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 1: a practice. So let's see what happens. And I don't

510
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 1: even know if Thursday nights game is going to be

511
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: any kind of big indicator. We'll see. I don't know

512
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 1: how much Rogers is going to play or not play.

513
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,120
Speaker 1: We'll see about all that. But Pete had some interesting

514
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,159
Speaker 1: things to say and I agree with him about the

515
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,879
Speaker 1: AFC North. We've been talking about that all offseason long.

516
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 1: All Right, the General John McClain from the Houston Chronicle

517
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: is coming up. What stood out to him, what was

518
00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 1: his position group of choice that really stood out yesterday,

519
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 1: and what he's looking for today with the Houston Texans.

520
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,200

Speaker 1: from practice. It's cool stuff. Also very cool to have

533
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 1: John McLean join us every morning during these shows at

534
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 1: eight thirty from the Houston Chronicle General, Good morning, all right.

535
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,639
Speaker 1: Position group that stood out to you the most? What

536
00:25:55,720 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 1: was your biggest takeaway? I didn't have one position group

537
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,680
Speaker 1: that stood out more than others. I was watching individual

538
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:08,680
Speaker 1: players and the young guys and the old guys coming

539
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,879
Speaker 1: off injuries. I thought Titus Howard. Kyle Facral, a sixty

540
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:16,959
Speaker 1: five two forty five pound outside linebacker, rushed against him

541
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,800
Speaker 1: twice in individual drills. And that's what I liked to

542
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 1: watch pass protection and like to watch White turn it

543
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,640
Speaker 1: up because all those guys wanted shot at him to

544
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 1: judge themselves. But anyway, Titus Howard two times. The first

545
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 1: one was Kyle Facral. I couldn't see the second one,

546
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:41,399
Speaker 1: and that Facral tried to put I guess it was

547
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 1: a swim move on him or maybe an over under,

548
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: and he got leverage, got his hands underneath his pads

549
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,360
Speaker 1: and just tossed him, you know, rag doll and just

550
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,680
Speaker 1: tossed him to the ground like he was flicking off

551
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:59,480
Speaker 1: a fly. And that was impressive because two reasons. Number one,

552
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 1: it was a play, but number two, he showed a

553
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 1: little a toughness. You know, we think of guys that

554
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 1: are good athletes not being as tough as like a

555
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,120
Speaker 1: guy like Sharping who's not a great athlete, but as

556
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 1: we call him, a maler. And Howard did that two

557
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 1: different times. And another thing I was watching it had

558
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,400
Speaker 1: nothing to do with them going against the Packers, but

559
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 1: Tim Kelly taking to Shaun Watson and his top three

560
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 1: receivers Hopkins, Fuller and Qt down in an end zone

561
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,680
Speaker 1: and he instructed them and they threw down and outs

562
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,919
Speaker 1: into the end zone, just working by himselves and Kelly

563
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 1: really coaching him up. And I focused on Caholly wearing

564
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,119
Speaker 1: and there was no way to miss him because with

565
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 1: Jordan Thomas out, Jordan Akins moves up. Aikins continues to

566
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 1: me to be not the biggest surprise of camp, as

567
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 1: he average thirteen yards of catch as a rookie and

568
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 1: was a third round picking his older and moment or

569
00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:00,880
Speaker 1: two because of his baseball days. But he just he

570
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 1: gets the ball and he turns it up to feel.

571
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,960
Speaker 1: He puts his foot down and Boom cuts and turns

572
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 1: it up to feel. And Dave had a lot of

573
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,719
Speaker 1: weapons at the skilled positions at receiver and tied end.

574
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 1: I just this early this morning did a fantasy football

575
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,679
Speaker 1: on Sirius and they were like, you know, well the

576
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,639
Speaker 1: tight ends are this, and I said, guys, keep an

577
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 1: eye on him, and so wearing one of the things

578
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 1: I liked watching him. He runs his routes hard, and

579
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 1: he doesn't stop till he ears the whistle. Even when

580
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 1: the ball's thrown to the other side of the field,

581
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,199
Speaker 1: he's still going all out. And when he had to

582
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 1: hit people, he hit people. When he had the wall

583
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:43,240
Speaker 1: he blocking, he walled and then he had good catches.

584
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 1: But he had that great touchdown catch at the end

585
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 1: with two guys on him where he made a big

586
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,719
Speaker 1: leap and he caught it from a J. McCarron. And

587
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 1: I know after all that time he missed. Bill O'Brien

588
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 1: was very skeptical about his first day. When we talked

589
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 1: about Bill disagreed with us, But no way disagreed yesterday

590
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 1: because Kaholly Waring looked really good. Josh Ferguson kind of

591
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 1: lost in the praise of Kron Higden Junior and to

592
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 1: marry A. Crockett. I went back after watching him get

593
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 1: a ball, turn a corner and just explode up to

594
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,920
Speaker 1: field for a touchdown, went back and read his profiles

595
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 1: coming out of Illinois, what a good receiver he was

596
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 1: in college. How he ran a four four eight and

597
00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 1: he's the one that has the most experience in his

598
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 1: third year. So I watched him too, and I'm impressed

599
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 1: every day, and as I'm sure you guys are with

600
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 1: what you see from Crockett and Higden. And I'm really

601
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 1: pumped about the game. I don't care about the starters.

602
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 1: I want to see. You know, they're asking a lot

603
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:48,800
Speaker 1: for Matt Khalil and Sean Trelle Henderson to hold up

604
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 1: an offensive tackle considering what their injury history, and hopefully

605
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 1: for the texans sake, they can both started sixteen games.

606
00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 1: But Khalil held his own. We got watch him and

607
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 1: I'm assuming he'll play a little bit and then Henderson

608
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,000
Speaker 1: will play a little bit. But they gotta look at

609
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 1: all those young guys. But watching Khalil yesterday, I thought

610
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: he did a pretty good job. And he's gonna be

611
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 1: work in progress. He gets back physically, but also he's

612
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,760
Speaker 1: got to Now you think a guy in his shape

613
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 1: who's thirty one years old, he would be just have

614
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 1: a lot of confidence. But like JJ said last year,

615
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,880
Speaker 1: at this time, he didn't know he knew what he

616
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,479
Speaker 1: thought he could do. He was confident he could, but

617
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 1: he didn't notally do it. And I guarantee you Matt

618
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 1: Kalil's the same way. What's interesting, John, A couple of

619
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,120
Speaker 1: things that you said that tightus Howard rep of of

620
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 1: course the one that's making its rounds on Twitter that

621
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 1: everybody has seen. He was at left tackle going against

622
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 1: fac Rol and facl fact was not the strongest guy,

623
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 1: but he's very quick, yes, and Titus just got in

624
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 1: front of him and said, dam no, you're done. And

625
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,280
Speaker 1: that was pretty impressive. Now, I did see JJ's two

626
00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 1: reps of one on once and poor Alex Light for Richmond,

627
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,280
Speaker 1: who's been here for a couple of years. JJ was

628
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 1: a course in front of all the fans, and you

629
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 1: could I just knew it was coming. I was like,

630
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 1: I turned him my dad, and I said, here comes

631
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 1: the bull rush. And he took John. He took Light,

632
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 1: and he took him seven yards beyond the quarterback like

633
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 1: he just looked like, I mean, I could just almost

634
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 1: hear the noise. JJ may like I just took him

635
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 1: right on past um. But I thought it was a

636
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 1: pretty interesting day all around. Now I'm gonna read your

637
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 1: tweet and I want you to expand this. You talked

638
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 1: about the running backs a little bit. Of course, Now

639
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna Mike Clay tweet. Oh here it is Mike Clay,

640
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 1: who is on NFL ESPN. Yeah, serious fantasy, he said,

641
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 1: quoting you about an hour ago, he said, I believe

642
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 1: the Texans second back is with another team. How would you?

643
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on that? I think we're gonna

644
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 1: see these guys a lot, but when you think about

645
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 1: how they got here and what's required of them, and

646
00:31:55,240 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: we can't underestimate the past protection that is that is

647
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 1: imperative if you're gonna play in this backfield. And we

648
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 1: talked yesterday about Alfred Blue and the fans are, oh no,

649
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 1: please not Alfred Blue. But if he got cut by

650
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 1: Jacksonville that I think he would be a candidate. But

651
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 1: I don't know yet. If these guys can pass for tech,

652
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 1: they don't have to be as good as Lamar, because

653
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 1: Lamar's really well, really good at it doesn't really well

654
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 1: and he's a good receiver. Well, these guys, we know

655
00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:33,080
Speaker 1: Ferguson can catch. Not sure you know, Buddy Howd seems

656
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 1: to be just a special teams guy. But the two

657
00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 1: undrafted rookies. Will one of those guys be good enough

658
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 1: in all three phases to be able to come in

659
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 1: and replace Miller when he needs a breather or gets hurt.

660
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 1: I think they want a more experience back, who is

661
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 1: someone who works hard at those other things like receiving

662
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 1: and blocking and will continue to get better. But the

663
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 1: thing is, nobody's gonna part with anybody now, right. No,

664
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 1: I don't think say now, I wouldn't do it now.

665
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:08,720
Speaker 1: I'd wait till players start getting cut. Maybe somebody's got

666
00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 1: one too many and you give them a six. You know,

667
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 1: as we've talked about, they're gonna have three compensatory draft choices,

668
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 1: and Texans need Kareem Jackson and Tyrn Matthew to play

669
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,200
Speaker 1: really well this season so they can get threes for

670
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 1: him except against them, except against them. That would give

671
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 1: them three threes. So you can't trade compensatory picks unless

672
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:35,360
Speaker 1: you have that, unless you have them. Yeah, and so

673
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 1: maybe they'd be more inclined to trade a three. I

674
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 1: think if they traded three, it would never be for

675
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 1: a back and probably wouldn't trade it. It would have

676
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 1: to be for a corner, specifically a slot corner. But

677
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 1: do you guys agree that the that the second back

678
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 1: who has a chance to play quite a bit, because

679
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,800
Speaker 1: you know, Margaret's beat up is with another team. I

680
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 1: don't think that's necessarily the case. I think they could

681
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 1: pick up another back, but I don't know if it'll

682
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,600
Speaker 1: be the second back that this person turns out to be.

683
00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: I still have high hopes that one of these guys

684
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:08,359
Speaker 1: other than Lamar turns out to be that person. And

685
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 1: guess what, they're gonna get a lot of playing time.

686
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 1: You know, Lamar's not gonna play much. Lamar every time

687
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 1: Watson's on the field, I would assume Lamar will be

688
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:19,239
Speaker 1: with him for those reasons to play a series Thursday.

689
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 1: It's a good question. It's a good question. I hope

690
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,080
Speaker 1: he seemed to have referred to allude to the fact

691
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:30,640
Speaker 1: that everybody, more than likely everybody would play at least. Yeah,

692
00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 1: that seems that seems to be kind of the way

693
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 1: I would think, considering he played last year. When we

694
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 1: were talking about this yesterday, that last year you kind

695
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 1: of had to rebaptize him into the NFL fold if

696
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:44,240
Speaker 1: you see, Yeah, just get him out there, just just test,

697
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,239
Speaker 1: you know, stick as tall in the water. And that's

698
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 1: basically what happened against the Chiefs. Now, if they were

699
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 1: able to convert that third down, he'd probably continue that drive.

700
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 1: And he knows what happens. Maybe he's out there for

701
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,839
Speaker 1: ten plays, so maybe one drive. I would say one

702
00:34:55,920 --> 00:35:00,960
Speaker 1: drive max if anything. Yeah, Thursday five. I've not watched

703
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 1: Higden and crocket and Blid's pick up. I've watched him run,

704
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 1: I've watched him catch. But if they're not really good

705
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:12,239
Speaker 1: at it, they're not gonna be the second back. I mean,

706
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:15,719
Speaker 1: they're away. I'll tell you John, I'm talking about during

707
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:17,759
Speaker 1: the season. I'll tell you I've watched. I've watched some

708
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,160
Speaker 1: of the one on ones. The best pass protector of

709
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: all the running backs is Lamar Miller. The second best

710
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,719
Speaker 1: is calling Gillespia. He's the second best, won't be him?

711
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 1: And so uh And by the way, as you say that,

712
00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:33,440
Speaker 1: who's the fastest of all the running backs? Ferguson? What

713
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,920
Speaker 1: are he running? I guess what Gillespia ran in his

714
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:41,760
Speaker 1: pro day? What he run well? So, I mean, anyway,

715
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 1: you need to hear them there. What if I got

716
00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:46,360
Speaker 1: here's hypothetical for you guys. What if Gillespia one of

717
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 1: these games or multiple games, turns out to run the ball. Well,

718
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:51,759
Speaker 1: now I know it's gonna be against the twos and

719
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:56,880
Speaker 1: the threes, But what if that happens. I'm that's a stretch.

720
00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 1: That might be a stretch. I think he's gonna be

721
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:03,920
Speaker 1: bad charging down the field and uh in doing what

722
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 1: he does. But John, when you see when you see

723
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 1: Alfred Blue out there, when you saw Alfred Blue out

724
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,960
Speaker 1: there in a pass protection situation like third down and long,

725
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 1: you know Blue is not gonna get the ball in

726
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:15,799
Speaker 1: all likelihood. He's he's in there to pass protect. Right.

727
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:17,839
Speaker 1: He also caught the ball a little bit, he could,

728
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:21,440
Speaker 1: but could Calaspia potentially, and maybe it's a strong height.

729
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:25,719
Speaker 1: There's no chance of Lesbia getting the ball. Yeah. Well,

730
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 1: but if he's but on third downs, if you know,

731
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 1: if if you're not satisfied with what you're getting from Ferguson,

732
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:36,200
Speaker 1: be it pass protection or whatever the case might be,

733
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:38,840
Speaker 1: you sure as he can throw the ball to Gilly,

734
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 1: for sure, he can catch the ball in the backfield.

735
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,880
Speaker 1: And if the biggest key with him is just with

736
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,360
Speaker 1: any any rookie at this point, is do you know

737
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,320
Speaker 1: who to block? Because when it's one on one and

738
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 1: you're doing one on one drills, like you know, okay,

739
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,360
Speaker 1: he's coming, I got him, this is the drill. It

740
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 1: didn't like he's gonna blitz over here and I got

741
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,279
Speaker 1: protection on the left side, so he you know that.

742
00:36:57,760 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 1: But do you know who to block? If you've got

743
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 1: a particular protection scheme, are you gonna know If Glesbian

744
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,800
Speaker 1: knows who to block, that guy will get blocked. Lamar

745
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 1: knows who to block. So King Higden and Crockett figure

746
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 1: out which guy to have to because if they do,

747
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:15,160
Speaker 1: then Crockett is going to be the better guy, because

748
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:19,240
Speaker 1: I've seen Higden struggle with that, trying to pass protect

749
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 1: that that has not been great for him and the

750
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 1: one on ones. But for rookies, you just questioned, you're

751
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 1: you're seeing all these different looks, You're seeing all these

752
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:30,280
Speaker 1: sim pressures. Do you know which guy you're gonna be responsible?

753
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 1: Responsible for? That to me is the biggest question. And

754
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 1: if one of those young guys can figure that out,

755
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 1: then I think that guy takes a jump up. But

756
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 1: to your point, John about running backs is the number

757
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:42,839
Speaker 1: two on this roster, I wouldn't be surprised if they look.

758
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,880
Speaker 1: And the one place that you would think they're always

759
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 1: gonna look where the verbiage is very similar is where

760
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,800
Speaker 1: New England. And New England has four backs rex Burghead

761
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:54,160
Speaker 1: Sony Michelle, James White, and Damian Harris. I don't think

762
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:56,439
Speaker 1: they're gonna go into the season with four backs. I don't.

763
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 1: Maybe they will, they have before. But one of those

764
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 1: guys may be available. I'll be shocked. Whereas Culin glaspiea

765
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 1: to do things he never did in college. Yea, he

766
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 1: made the team on special teams and got to have

767
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:12,239
Speaker 1: a cup of coffee on the field. I believe you've

768
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 1: got to score the first touchdown for a twelfth man

769
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 1: and to come in here and be able to play

770
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:19,840
Speaker 1: regularly in the backfield to protect Watson. They win no

771
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:21,880
Speaker 1: thread of him getting the ball on the run. They

772
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 1: don't know you can abandon. You can abandon worried about

773
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 1: a draw play or anything. The second back is coming

774
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,640
Speaker 1: from somewhere else. I just the reason why I hesitate

775
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:34,120
Speaker 1: to say that is because I'm just wondering what's gonna

776
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 1: be available out there for you. You mentioned the guys

777
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:40,200
Speaker 1: are coming to what they're A diamond does and a

778
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 1: backup running backs in the NFL, all right. I mean,

779
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:46,239
Speaker 1: if you have a really good, good enough one for

780
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:50,400
Speaker 1: you here, I'm just wondering if that's gonna actually be available.

781
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 1: Somebody must have a great surplus. If that's the case,

782
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:54,359
Speaker 1: well that's what I'm saying. New England's got four of them.

783
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's one place you look. I mean,

784
00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:59,759
Speaker 1: you're gonna what has been the history of players that

785
00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 1: have come to this place that have contributed offensively. I'm

786
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,240
Speaker 1: not saying about the waiver claims last year because Buddy

787
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: and aj when they got here, they immediately went special teams.

788
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:09,680
Speaker 1: I was like they were gonna play. The only guys

789
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 1: that have gotten on the field have been guys that

790
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,959
Speaker 1: have some knowledge of what this offense or defensive scheme

791
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:18,720
Speaker 1: is Tomorrow. Do you guys know there's more Texans playing

792
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:21,560
Speaker 1: for the Patriots than there are Patriots playing for the Texans.

793
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:26,839
Speaker 1: By fall they pick up our excuse they're back? John, Now,

794
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:30,720
Speaker 1: who can we get that plays our type type of scheme?

795
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:33,640
Speaker 1: Let's say, Texans, just cut this guy, let's bring you in.

796
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:36,440
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, all right, what else John? Around the

797
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 1: league here? As we talked a little bit about Andrew

798
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 1: Luck yesterday, the cult situation. He's not practicing, he's not

799
00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 1: playing in the preseason. But what else is catching your

800
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,239
Speaker 1: eye from around the National Football League? At oh Mark,

801
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:51,440
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, let me think I had haven't paid much

802
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 1: attention to what's going on around the league. I'm getting

803
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:56,439
Speaker 1: attention to the Texans. I'll give you one, John, I'll

804
00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:59,439
Speaker 1: give you one chew on a little bit. Jannicking dock

805
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 1: Way held out ye and then he comes in, and

806
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I just I understand the whole thing about

807
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 1: you know, getting a vested year or whatever the case

808
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:11,560
Speaker 1: might be, but it just I don't I don't know.

809
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 1: I mean, if it feels like to me, if you're

810
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,440
Speaker 1: making the stance of holding out and hold out like

811
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,600
Speaker 1: it doesn't make any sense about three at this time

812
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:22,120
Speaker 1: of year, it only caused him, what twelve hundred a week.

813
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:25,400
Speaker 1: If I'm Jadevion Clowney and I'm trying and I go

814
00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:29,760
Speaker 1: to the pass rush school with Chuck Smith and uh

815
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 1: Julius Peppers, so I'm doing past trying to be a

816
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:35,880
Speaker 1: better pass rusher because I want to get paid as

817
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:38,800
Speaker 1: a pass rusher. I come in early. I don't just

818
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:42,400
Speaker 1: come in to get that first game check, which everybody

819
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:46,439
Speaker 1: does after the after that Cowboy game, then they start

820
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 1: preparing for the opener. I want to come in and

821
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:52,840
Speaker 1: play a game, bang on, people, get in football condition.

822
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,520
Speaker 1: I want to hit the ground running against the Saints

823
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,919
Speaker 1: National TV. I want all these other teams, potential team

824
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:02,399
Speaker 1: that might want me in a trade after next year.

825
00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:04,160
Speaker 1: I want them to see me. I don't want to

826
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:06,560
Speaker 1: come in and people go, well, you know what, he

827
00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 1: looked like. He missed the offseason and he's not in

828
00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:14,359
Speaker 1: football condition, great physical shape, knows the defense. It's gonna

829
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:16,480
Speaker 1: take him to the three games. I want to come

830
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:18,880
Speaker 1: in there and they go, wow, clown, he's off to

831
00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,839
Speaker 1: a great start. That's just me. If I'm buzz Cook,

832
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,400
Speaker 1: I'm telling him you need to get in there, and

833
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 1: you've already proved your point. It's not going to change anything,

834
00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:31,920
Speaker 1: and I would seriously consider it if I'm any of

835
00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 1: those guys holding out like they swear. Melvin Gordon's not

836
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:37,360
Speaker 1: going to get a new deal. They've offered him like

837
00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:40,520
Speaker 1: ten million a year and he don't like it. Well,

838
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:43,560
Speaker 1: that's what you get for backs today. Elliot's gonna get

839
00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:46,000
Speaker 1: the most money of the running backs whenever they do it.

840
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:49,920
Speaker 1: Gordon's been hurt too much. But Guy's got to understand

841
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,480
Speaker 1: maybe they're listening to their agents. Maybe not. If you're

842
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:57,640
Speaker 1: gonna hold out and you just don't want to go

843
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:01,520
Speaker 1: to practice, then find But if you're gonna be blustery

844
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 1: about it and act like you're not gonna play, then

845
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,600
Speaker 1: you come in with your tail tuck between your legs.

846
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:09,000
Speaker 1: What good does that do you. I've got one more

847
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 1: for you. Pete Prisco. We just had them on last

848
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:13,759
Speaker 1: segment and he said, I asked him about eighteen games.

849
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 1: He said, yeah, it's coming. Eighteen games is definitely coming.

850
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:22,400
Speaker 1: I disagree your thoughts. I don't know that that s

851
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:27,279
Speaker 1: and Ie idea of having players play sixteen is just propositous. Well,

852
00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 1: there's no way and as we talked about this before

853
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:34,759
Speaker 1: the least important games of the nonconference games, So the

854
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,959
Speaker 1: Texans would sit Watson for the and Drew Brees. They'd

855
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:40,600
Speaker 1: set Drew Brees because why should they play them in

856
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,920
Speaker 1: a non conference game? How would hold ESPN the NFL

857
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 1: like that? What do you do about kickers and bunners

858
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:49,840
Speaker 1: and snappers d F two so that that doesn't wash

859
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 1: if you play the players enough, they'll do it. And

860
00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 1: I think lifetime insurance let them be free agents a

861
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 1: year sooner, help their benefits. And but and increase the roster,

862
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:07,280
Speaker 1: let the whole fifty three be active on game days

863
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:11,040
Speaker 1: and and but you're still gonna have more injuries and

864
00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:14,120
Speaker 1: quarterbacks get hurt. There's not enough good backup quarterbacks, not

865
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:17,080
Speaker 1: enough good starting quarterbacks to go around. And I think

866
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 1: it would water down the product even more when the

867
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,520
Speaker 1: backup quarterbacks have to play. All right, John, what are

868
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:25,759
Speaker 1: you going on in the Chronicle? I wrote today just

869
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:28,600
Speaker 1: kind of a scene setter, and I'm writing tomorrow about

870
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 1: going against Aaron Rodgers in practice. Should help the defensive

871
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 1: backs get ready for this murderers row of quarterbacks come

872
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:40,239
Speaker 1: in the first seven games. And Aaron Wilson wrote today

873
00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:43,640

906
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:47,400

907
00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 1: but Johnny, do you know Johnny grew up in Wisconsin

908
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:51,400
Speaker 1: and he wants to buy a Bartstar jersey, which is

909
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:53,719
Speaker 1: bar was my hero man. How super cool? That's super

910
00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 1: I mean, outside my parents, bart Star is one of them.

911
00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:57,600
Speaker 1: I mean, he was the quarterback here, he was the

912
00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:01,680
Speaker 1: coach here. But I think, okay, so, I mean I

913
00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:03,080
Speaker 1: don't even want to get into this right now. But

914
00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:06,359
Speaker 1: it's like it's easier in the NFL because the two

915
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:09,920
Speaker 1: conferences rarely play each other, right, so it's it's easier

916
00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:12,359
Speaker 1: to say, Hey, I'm gonna go wear any Lie Manage

917
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:16,160
Speaker 1: jersey in Houston. Who cares you, Lie Manning? No, I'm

918
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:18,799
Speaker 1: talking about former players. Well, we'll get to this. An

919
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 1: it's already a former player, and he's still playing. We

920
00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:25,839
Speaker 1: need to get we'll getting into this former general. Let's

921
00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:28,080
Speaker 1: just know that the general agrees with me. Former players

922
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:33,240
Speaker 1: who are still playing. That's a topic that does happen.

923
00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:36,640
Speaker 1: That kind of does happen. It's kind of like former

924
00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:39,360
Speaker 1: PGA players who are still playing. It sort of relates

925
00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:42,359
Speaker 1: to our nine twenty interview by the way, too. Oh,

926
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:45,480
Speaker 1: it kind of does twenty interview with Brian body Calhoun

927
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:48,360
Speaker 1: and who his favorite NFL player was. Oh my gosh,

928
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:50,640
Speaker 1: you gotta wait for this. This is good, all right,

929
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:53,800
Speaker 1: but right now we need the NFL films music because

930
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:56,640
Speaker 1: it is time. I don't know if he's got to

931
00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:58,560
Speaker 1: put it up. I don't know if he's got it ready.

932
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:05,359
Speaker 1: He's getting aerious. Austin is today's position group is one

933
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:08,480
Speaker 1: of the most important ones. It doesn't get discussed enough.

934
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:12,480
Speaker 1: In fact, I find it incredibly boring to watch this

935
00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:17,399
Speaker 1: group practice. Incredibly boring. And I gave the analogy last

936
00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:21,240
Speaker 1: week that when I'm watching practice, when this group takes

937
00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:24,320
Speaker 1: the stage, it's the equivalent of going to a classic

938
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:27,440
Speaker 1: rock concert and the leader of the band says, and

939
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,360
Speaker 1: now we'd like to play something from our new album.

940
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:34,960
Speaker 1: That's when you go to the restroom when this group practices.

941
00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:37,520
Speaker 1: And I'm just talking about watching practice, not the game,

942
00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:44,240
Speaker 1: watching practice, because Special Teams practice is boring. It's incredibly boring.

943
00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:46,680
Speaker 1: It is the most boring thing about watching practice. I

944
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:51,560
Speaker 1: enjoy watching practice, but Special Teams is dull city. They're

945
00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:56,200
Speaker 1: not going full out. They're practicing where they're lining up. Now.

946
00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:59,799
Speaker 1: I don't mind watching Kayimi Fairbairn do his thing, oh,

947
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:03,560
Speaker 1: because that's that's forgot to put that in my hairs.

948
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,759
Speaker 1: It's yesterday and we'll talk about that. I don't mind

949
00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:09,160
Speaker 1: watching the field goals because you know, it's is it

950
00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:10,680
Speaker 1: good or not? All right? I don't want to see

951
00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:13,719
Speaker 1: him do his thing, or when they're practicing some of

952
00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:17,520
Speaker 1: the punts. Okay, seeing if Trevor Daniel and Brian Anger

953
00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:20,719
Speaker 1: can you know belt one seventy yards? Okay? Cool? But

954
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,360
Speaker 1: the rest of it, no, the rest of it is

955
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:26,279
Speaker 1: all about and then they're using the punt machine because

956
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:27,799
Speaker 1: they don't want to wear out the legs because they

957
00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:30,120
Speaker 1: have to go punt after plood and then does the

958
00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:33,240
Speaker 1: guy catch it or not? No, that's boring. But Johnny,

959
00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:38,080
Speaker 1: Special Teams, it's incredibly important. They dramatically improved last year,

960
00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:40,200
Speaker 1: but they know there's another level for them to get to.

961
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:42,400
Speaker 1: They're not resting here, They're trying to get better every day.

962
00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:45,120
Speaker 1: Brad Selly is awesome. Let's go special teams. No, No,

963
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:47,400
Speaker 1: let's start with the coaching staff, because Brad Celey and

964
00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:51,000
Speaker 1: Tracy Smith are phenomenal what they do. They they came

965
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:54,840
Speaker 1: to Houston with a plan and they and I know

966
00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 1: that sounds they came to Houston with a plan with

967
00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:58,080
Speaker 1: the but they did. They have a plan on how

968
00:48:58,080 --> 00:48:59,800
Speaker 1: they do special teams and they've been doing it together

969
00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:03,520
Speaker 1: for a while, so they they're kind of the they're

970
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:06,280
Speaker 1: two brains, but they kind of act as one massive

971
00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:08,960
Speaker 1: brain because they knew exactly what each other's thinking. And

972
00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,920
Speaker 1: I think Brad seely and and Tracy Smith were fantastically

973
00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:14,719
Speaker 1: starting special teams. Then you get to the specialists. Start

974
00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:16,960
Speaker 1: with Kymie fair Band. Last year he led, he led

975
00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:20,719
Speaker 1: the league and field goals. That's gotta change. He asked

976
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:22,319
Speaker 1: me the other day we were kind of going off

977
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:24,919
Speaker 1: the field or we're kind of past each other changing drills,

978
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:26,920
Speaker 1: and he said, how do we look today? And I said, like,

979
00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:28,560
Speaker 1: you're not going to lead the league and field goals

980
00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:29,840
Speaker 1: this year, and that's kind of my hope is that

981
00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:32,720
Speaker 1: he doesn't. He kind of smiled as like more extra points.

982
00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:36,520
Speaker 1: But we found last year that he hit a couple

983
00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:38,759
Speaker 1: of clutched field goals, a couple of massive field goals.

984
00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:41,239
Speaker 1: He hit fifty yarders, He hit key field goals when

985
00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:42,920
Speaker 1: we needed to have him. Now, he was kind of

986
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:45,080
Speaker 1: like the team in a lot of sense. And you know,

987
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:46,560
Speaker 1: early on in the year, you know, he missed one

988
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:49,000
Speaker 1: at Tennessee about fifty yards could have helped him if

989
00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:51,160
Speaker 1: if Shaun had not gotten sacked prior to that. But

990
00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:53,799
Speaker 1: he missed a fifty yard or fifty yard plus one

991
00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:57,000
Speaker 1: against Tennessee. That hurtus in that game. But from week

992
00:49:57,200 --> 00:50:00,440
Speaker 1: four on, Week three on, he was fantastic. Here's the

993
00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:03,680
Speaker 1: other thing with Kaimie. He's now you know, we talk

994
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:05,719
Speaker 1: about quarterbacks a lot, and what's the first thing you

995
00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:07,200
Speaker 1: to talk about a lot of times A quarterbacks at

996
00:50:07,239 --> 00:50:09,200
Speaker 1: arm strength? Right? I like his arms strength. I mean

997
00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:10,959
Speaker 1: that's the thing about Rogers. You see the arm strength.

998
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:13,759
Speaker 1: But Aaron can make every throw if he's got to,

999
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:16,120
Speaker 1: if he's got to drop one in versus I gotta

1000
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:19,000
Speaker 1: laser this one, or I got side arms right, Yeah,

1001
00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:21,040
Speaker 1: Mallett has a good arm too, but right, can you

1002
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,160
Speaker 1: make the short pass it? How's your short game? But

1003
00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:26,000
Speaker 1: it's that eighty mile an hour fastball every time, even

1004
00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:28,719
Speaker 1: from me to you way ye, So he does it

1005
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:31,400
Speaker 1: all the time. So I see a guy like Rogers,

1006
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:34,239
Speaker 1: So you got like Shaun Watson, they understand what kind

1007
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:36,720
Speaker 1: of Kaymie I think is that way kicking the football

1008
00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:40,120
Speaker 1: and especially with kickoffs. I was watching him yesterday with kickoffs.

1009
00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:43,000
Speaker 1: I meant to write this, and we've talked about this

1010
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:47,080
Speaker 1: with our coverage units. We've got to be able to

1011
00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:48,799
Speaker 1: get to a point where we can kick the ball

1012
00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:51,840
Speaker 1: in that far corner away from their sideline, which a

1013
00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:53,200
Speaker 1: lot of times is where they want to return to

1014
00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:55,359
Speaker 1: and kick it's about the one or two yard line

1015
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:58,399
Speaker 1: and forced the return because our cover units are so good,

1016
00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:01,560
Speaker 1: they're going to correct that return inside the twenty. And

1017
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:04,880
Speaker 1: I saw him do that repeatedly yesterday. He go to

1018
00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:06,640
Speaker 1: one corner, he go to the other corner, and he

1019
00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:09,480
Speaker 1: was dropping it like two three yard line forcing the return.

1020
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:12,560
Speaker 1: I don't think I saw one one time where the

1021
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:14,279
Speaker 1: coach he kicked it a little deep and a coach

1022
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,880
Speaker 1: had to flip the ball the returner and he ran it.

1023
00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:19,560
Speaker 1: But every single time other than that one, he had

1024
00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:22,160
Speaker 1: it in those corners or right at the goal and

1025
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:24,279
Speaker 1: to force the return. That's gonna be a big part

1026
00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:27,320
Speaker 1: of special teams this year. Mark is Kymie fairbaron putting

1027
00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:30,600
Speaker 1: the ball in that far corner and forcing the return

1028
00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:32,320
Speaker 1: when they want to. Now, there might be some times

1029
00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:34,520
Speaker 1: when you know, maybe at the end of a half

1030
00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:36,439
Speaker 1: or end of a game where you take a lead

1031
00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:38,440
Speaker 1: with how many of her seconds left, and year like, look,

1032
00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:40,920
Speaker 1: they got a really good returner back there. Let's just

1033
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:42,759
Speaker 1: not even take a chance. Let's bang it through the ends.

1034
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:45,040
Speaker 1: And he can do that too. So he's got the

1035
00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:49,080
Speaker 1: varied skill set kicking off. That's gonna help you because

1036
00:51:49,120 --> 00:51:50,920
Speaker 1: you can play the field position game just based on

1037
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:52,480
Speaker 1: what he can do. Now as a rookie, he's just

1038
00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:55,439
Speaker 1: bombing it. You know, he he's bombing it. Or second

1039
00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:56,640
Speaker 1: year guy, because I think he was heard as a

1040
00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,480
Speaker 1: rookie and so you don't you know, it was like

1041
00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:01,560
Speaker 1: just put it through the end zone. But now he's

1042
00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:03,040
Speaker 1: to a point where if you want it through the

1043
00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:05,560
Speaker 1: end zone, great, you want it to corner you want

1044
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:07,600
Speaker 1: to pooch, Like, what do you want? He can now

1045
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:09,880
Speaker 1: bring all of those to the party, and I think

1046
00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:11,600
Speaker 1: he's kicking with a lot of confidence. I think the

1047
00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:14,480
Speaker 1: punter battle is gonna be very interesting starting Thursday night,

1048
00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:18,600
Speaker 1: all right, So Anger and Daniel very interesting. And I'll

1049
00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:22,120
Speaker 1: tell you this, I'm like you, Special Teams just kind

1050
00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 1: of an opportunity for me to like look at my

1051
00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:27,200
Speaker 1: notebook and because I'm just writing furiously notes throughout and

1052
00:52:27,280 --> 00:52:28,680
Speaker 1: I go back and I look at my notebook, and

1053
00:52:28,680 --> 00:52:30,160
Speaker 1: so Special teams a lot of times at the time

1054
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,239
Speaker 1: when I like check my notes and make sure that

1055
00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:36,040
Speaker 1: things I've written are legible, that I can right, that

1056
00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:37,640
Speaker 1: I can recall it, and then I can put it

1057
00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:40,640
Speaker 1: down if I need to. But when Anger and Daniel

1058
00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:46,480
Speaker 1: are punting, I watch every time because they hit rockets,

1059
00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:50,680
Speaker 1: so trying to discern, Like I'll see a punt, I'll

1060
00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:53,080
Speaker 1: see the ball in and I'm like, wow, who's that?

1061
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:55,200
Speaker 1: Like you got to try and figure it out? Like

1062
00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:59,239
Speaker 1: I saw one day, I couldn't really see who the

1063
00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:02,080
Speaker 1: punter was punt it. Then they'd cover and I'm watching

1064
00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:05,319
Speaker 1: this punt, I'm like, wow, who's that? Anger? Next punt.

1065
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:07,640
Speaker 1: Oh man, was that Anger? Get? Oh? No? That Daniel

1066
00:53:08,040 --> 00:53:10,080
Speaker 1: just going back and forth, back and forth. So this

1067
00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:13,719
Speaker 1: is a really some really impressive battle between these two,

1068
00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:15,640
Speaker 1: and I'm curious to see how it kind of all

1069
00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:18,840
Speaker 1: plays out. Look, glad they brought it Anger, Yes, because

1070
00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:22,120
Speaker 1: Daniel won the job over Lechler last year. So the

1071
00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:25,640
Speaker 1: fact that Daniel himself was brought in to compete with Lechler,

1072
00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:28,080
Speaker 1: who still had plenty of leg right, shows you that

1073
00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:31,480
Speaker 1: Daniel should not be surprised at somebody's bringing it. Well,

1074
00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:33,960
Speaker 1: here's the thing, compete with him here here, Yeah, And

1075
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:35,879
Speaker 1: here's what And that's why I like about it, Mark,

1076
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:40,279
Speaker 1: is the fact that I think Trevor responds to the competition.

1077
00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:42,200
Speaker 1: And when I think about Trevor, I think about a

1078
00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:44,839
Speaker 1: couple of moments. I think about one at Tennessee where

1079
00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:48,560
Speaker 1: he wanted to pooch one inside the five and he

1080
00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:50,200
Speaker 1: hit a five yards deep in the end zone, which

1081
00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:52,200
Speaker 1: gave Tennessee all kinds of room to move out on

1082
00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:55,640
Speaker 1: the end that twenty yards or some ridiculous thing. Yeah.

1083
00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:58,520
Speaker 1: But then in Game four, just two weeks later, he

1084
00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:01,200
Speaker 1: puts one inside the two yard line when we're down

1085
00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:04,319
Speaker 1: seven to nothing and climbing covers the fumble two plays later,

1086
00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:07,400
Speaker 1: and it was like he made that change in his

1087
00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:09,239
Speaker 1: game that and I was like, as a rookie, that's

1088
00:54:09,239 --> 00:54:13,279
Speaker 1: impressive to change your game like that. And I think

1089
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:16,960
Speaker 1: I think Trevor responds to the competition. So I think

1090
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:19,800
Speaker 1: we're going to see an even better Trevor Daniel. I

1091
00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 1: don't know what their deciding point is going to be,

1092
00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:27,800
Speaker 1: but you Trevor's got the younger leg I'm curious to

1093
00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:29,960
Speaker 1: see what he does in a second year. It's already

1094
00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:32,640
Speaker 1: lost a job, so there's a downside there that he

1095
00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:35,640
Speaker 1: achieved now that he will do it again. But he's

1096
00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:38,680
Speaker 1: available for a reason, right absolutely, And I think Trevor

1097
00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:41,279
Speaker 1: can be a really good punter in this league for

1098
00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:43,480
Speaker 1: a long time. But I said yes to that because

1099
00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:46,200
Speaker 1: I do think that Anger presents competition for Trevor. But

1100
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:50,120
Speaker 1: Trevor last year was better and better by the day

1101
00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:53,040
Speaker 1: because he was battling with Shane, and I think that's

1102
00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:55,480
Speaker 1: where Trevor really responds. So I think Trevor's going to

1103
00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:58,279
Speaker 1: be an even better punter. But really, the competition, I

1104
00:54:58,360 --> 00:55:00,520
Speaker 1: think we'll go all the way through Week four the preseason,

1105
00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:03,719
Speaker 1: so from that perspective, those three are really really good

1106
00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:07,399
Speaker 1: return guys because you don't have DeAndre Carter out there

1107
00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:09,640
Speaker 1: right now, and who knows when he gets back, Johnny,

1108
00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:12,200
Speaker 1: they might be in a situation here. Vincent Smith's been

1109
00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:14,880
Speaker 1: returning some kickoffs along with other guys. I don't know

1110
00:55:14,920 --> 00:55:16,560
Speaker 1: if they look at him as a punt returner, but

1111
00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:19,319
Speaker 1: I think punt returner is an area where they really

1112
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:21,920
Speaker 1: don't know yet and they're gonna use these games to

1113
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:24,959
Speaker 1: find out absolutely. And I think when it's kick return

1114
00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:26,680
Speaker 1: punt returning, think you're talking about some of the same

1115
00:55:26,719 --> 00:55:29,879
Speaker 1: guys now. I think in a perfect world, DeAndre Carter

1116
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:34,279
Speaker 1: would win the backup slot position quote unquote and be

1117
00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:36,799
Speaker 1: the return guy that I think in a perfect world

1118
00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:38,600
Speaker 1: with DeAndre, we're not in a perfect worl because DeAndre

1119
00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:40,240
Speaker 1: hasn't got on the field yet due to an injury

1120
00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:42,160
Speaker 1: that he had suffered he's still rehabbing from and he's

1121
00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:45,520
Speaker 1: still on Populists, so we haven't seen him. But they've

1122
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:47,640
Speaker 1: got some options. I'm gonna throw an option at you

1123
00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:51,440
Speaker 1: and maybe you have to explain later, but if there's

1124
00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:54,160
Speaker 1: a way that Stevie Mitchell could return kicks and punts,

1125
00:55:55,480 --> 00:55:58,879
Speaker 1: I think you've got to consider keeping him around Mark.

1126
00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:00,800
Speaker 1: He was fabulous yesterday. I mean at one point my

1127
00:56:00,920 --> 00:56:03,880
Speaker 1: dad said to me, hey, who's eleven? And I was like,

1128
00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:06,480
Speaker 1: Steven Mitchell goes he's catching everything, and he was. I

1129
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:08,960
Speaker 1: turned around. He catches a deep ball. He he caught

1130
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:11,000
Speaker 1: a little smoke screen and got up the field. He

1131
00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:13,040
Speaker 1: could fly. And if there's a way that Stevie Mitchell

1132
00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:17,480
Speaker 1: could could return kicks and punts and do it effectively,

1133
00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:20,160
Speaker 1: that that might be a return guy and be that

1134
00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:25,759
Speaker 1: fifth guy. Yes, maybe right now, some assume Smith would

1135
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 1: be that fourth or fifth receiver, and then you get

1136
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:30,000
Speaker 1: your returner in there, right and maybe it all works

1137
00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:32,319
Speaker 1: out that way. Maybe, And I mean that's that's where

1138
00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:36,160
Speaker 1: these games become big. But I don't know if Stevie

1139
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:38,160
Speaker 1: will get opportunities. He's been back there to catch some

1140
00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:40,960
Speaker 1: punts and catch some kickoffs. But if there were a

1141
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:42,279
Speaker 1: way that you could put him back there and just

1142
00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:45,000
Speaker 1: see what he can do, really, I'd love to see it.

1143
00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:47,239
Speaker 1: Because what he's doing as a receiver right now, I

1144
00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:50,080
Speaker 1: guarantee they've got to be thrilled with him. So from

1145
00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:52,400
Speaker 1: that perspective, I'd love to give Stevie a shot. But

1146
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:54,880
Speaker 1: you're right, Vincent's gonna get opportunities on kick returns. I

1147
00:56:54,920 --> 00:56:56,839
Speaker 1: don't know about punt returns, but kick returns for sure.

1148
00:56:57,560 --> 00:56:59,480
Speaker 1: I don't know if Key will return punts. I don't

1149
00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:01,800
Speaker 1: know if you want to. I don't know if you

1150
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:04,400
Speaker 1: want to threaten with that or even worry about that

1151
00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:06,560
Speaker 1: during the year, but only if it's a playoff situation

1152
00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:09,040
Speaker 1: and you don't like your current hunt returner or you

1153
00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:11,359
Speaker 1: like him, but you think you can move it. Kind

1154
00:57:11,400 --> 00:57:13,440
Speaker 1: of the way that they use Will Fuller, Like if

1155
00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:16,400
Speaker 1: Will wasn't getting targeted the passing game, they would put

1156
00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:18,600
Speaker 1: him back there to give him return. So maybe that's

1157
00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:19,960
Speaker 1: the way they do with Key keep. But I think

1158
00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:23,200
Speaker 1: if checkoff returner back in the day in the playoffs,

1159
00:57:23,320 --> 00:57:26,080
Speaker 1: oh man, yeah, remember, yeah, when you need it, Yeah,

1160
00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:28,720
Speaker 1: when you've gotta have it right, that's your guy, all right.

1161
00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:30,960
Speaker 1: We gotta only about thirty seconds to a minute left.

1162
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:33,400
Speaker 1: So here quick notes. A. J. Moore led the team

1163
00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:36,080
Speaker 1: and special team stops last year. He's back. No Brian

1164
00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:38,360
Speaker 1: Peters this year. But you have some guys who can

1165
00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:42,880
Speaker 1: maybe replace him or help do that. Between Calum Bay Scarlett,

1166
00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:48,960
Speaker 1: Dylan cole A, j Moore, Johnson Batamosi, Joe Webb. You've

1167
00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:52,360
Speaker 1: got guys that and look, there'll be a starter sprinkling

1168
00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:54,040
Speaker 1: every now and again. You know, sometimes Zach is on

1169
00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:57,840
Speaker 1: on one of those those return teams, and then Colin Glesbia, Right,

1170
00:57:57,960 --> 00:58:01,640
Speaker 1: how can I forget him? You've got guys that respect

1171
00:58:01,720 --> 00:58:05,360
Speaker 1: special teams, love special teams, cherish the impact they can

1172
00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:08,560
Speaker 1: make on special teams. The coverage unius, I think will

1173
00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:11,160
Speaker 1: be even better because those guys are all experiencing the

1174
00:58:11,200 --> 00:58:12,600
Speaker 1: system now. And then you throw in a couple more

1175
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:15,560
Speaker 1: town of guys like Gillesbia into that mix, I think

1176
00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:17,439
Speaker 1: you're gonna end up having some really good coverage units.

1177
00:58:17,440 --> 00:58:20,560
Speaker 1: And combined with Kaimie's improvement on kickoffs in particular, you

1178
00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:22,520
Speaker 1: got an opportunity to really win fuel position and make

1179
00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:24,520
Speaker 1: all these quarterbacks that you're gonna have to face go

1180
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:26,680
Speaker 1: at least eighty five eighty yards to put the bonny

1181
00:58:26,720 --> 00:58:29,520
Speaker 1: end zone. All right, that's it. Our special team's position

1182
00:58:29,600 --> 00:58:34,120
Speaker 1: group breakdown tomorrow, Johnny. At this time, Johnny will do

1183
00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:38,360
Speaker 1: every player on the roster in rapid fire. I think

1184
00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:40,960
Speaker 1: that's one sentence. I did the math. I did the

1185
00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:43,560
Speaker 1: math roughly roughly speaking, I used nine you guys, even

1186
00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:45,320
Speaker 1: though were gonna have ninety guys out there right now? Yeah,

1187
00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:50,120
Speaker 1: but got eight seconds forer guy, so you can't mess around.

1188
00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:51,360
Speaker 1: You just gotta throw a name and I gotta go.

1189
00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:56,040
Speaker 1: That's are eight seconds, eight seconds per guy, Okay, eight

1190
00:58:56,120 --> 00:58:58,720
Speaker 1: seconds a player. Johnny's gonna do every I can actually

1191
00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:01,080
Speaker 1: do two sentences and a two sentences an eight side.

1192
00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:03,120
Speaker 1: You can. It's gonna be tough though, all right. Next

1193
00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:06,520
Speaker 1: up Brian body Calhoun, a new Texan. He's doing well

1194
00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:08,840
Speaker 1: out there, by the way, who's his favorite all time

1195
00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:11,200
Speaker 1: football player. You're not gonna believe this. You're not gonna

1196
00:59:11,200 --> 00:59:14,320
Speaker 1: believe this. It's gonna be fun and nine thirty five

1197
00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:18,640
Speaker 1: Landry's questions including what jersey of a former player for

1198
00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:22,920
Speaker 1: another team any sport? Actually, oh, any sport, any sports

1199
00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:26,080
Speaker 1: would be acceptable to wear in Houston. Yeah, okay, but

1200
00:59:26,160 --> 00:59:27,960
Speaker 1: it's gotta be another team. It's gotta be an out

1201
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:30,840
Speaker 1: of town team. This is tougher in basketball because the

1202
00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:34,840
Speaker 1: two teams they cross over. I know, but but you

1203
00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:38,720
Speaker 1: one that I say is unacceptable. Nine thirty five it's

1204
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:43,880
Speaker 1: Texans training camp live. Who's looking good? Who'll need to

1205
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:48,560
Speaker 1: step up. How's the depth chart looking. The answers are

1206
00:59:48,680 --> 00:59:56,080
Speaker 1: right here on Texans training camp. Blood. I'm Witney Merciless,

1207
00:59:56,240 --> 00:59:59,720
Speaker 1: starting outside linebacker for your Houston Sexans. For the latest

1208
00:59:59,760 --> 01:00:02,440
Speaker 1: on your favorite team in mind, go to Houston Texans

1209
01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:08,160
Speaker 1: dot com. Oh, Whitney, he looked good Yesterday's right. He

1210
01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:10,880
Speaker 1: was going up against Bok Tri, the best left tackle

1211
01:00:10,960 --> 01:00:12,720
Speaker 1: in the league. Yeah he did. He did a lot.

1212
01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:14,720
Speaker 1: I know, I watched the one on ones in particular

1213
01:00:15,760 --> 01:00:19,200
Speaker 1: where the first one, the first one's a beauty. It

1214
01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:22,320
Speaker 1: was he threw a spin move on bok Tri and

1215
01:00:22,560 --> 01:00:24,920
Speaker 1: then bock Terry started. I mean, he threw a spin

1216
01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:26,840
Speaker 1: moved back the inside. Bok Terry started to slide with him,

1217
01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:29,280
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, his wit spun back inside.

1218
01:00:29,360 --> 01:00:31,200
Speaker 1: He combined it with it. He dropped the show. It's

1219
01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:33,800
Speaker 1: you know, you just drop your show like it almost

1220
01:00:33,840 --> 01:00:35,800
Speaker 1: pops out of place. Every time I'm rushing a passer,

1221
01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:38,320
Speaker 1: I try that move and he dropped. That sto works

1222
01:00:38,360 --> 01:00:40,720
Speaker 1: well for me actually, But and bok Tira tried to

1223
01:00:40,760 --> 01:00:42,960
Speaker 1: get his hands on him. He and just he ripped

1224
01:00:43,040 --> 01:00:45,360
Speaker 1: right underneath the hands and got there. The next one,

1225
01:00:45,440 --> 01:00:48,120
Speaker 1: Bacteria kind of slid with him which tried a long

1226
01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:50,080
Speaker 1: arm and stab moved. Some people call it you know,

1227
01:00:50,120 --> 01:00:51,880
Speaker 1: it's basically one arm you try and drive and then

1228
01:00:51,880 --> 01:00:53,360
Speaker 1: you're gonna make a move off that box. Terry he

1229
01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:55,000
Speaker 1: locked him up. But it was so fun to watch

1230
01:00:55,080 --> 01:00:56,440
Speaker 1: those two guy. I could have watched that for the

1231
01:00:56,480 --> 01:00:59,080
Speaker 1: next twenty raps. I mean, it was, it was, It

1232
01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:00,720
Speaker 1: was awesome. It was just kind of you know, it's

1233
01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:03,200
Speaker 1: like heavyweight fights, like you know, a couple of couple

1234
01:01:03,240 --> 01:01:04,960
Speaker 1: of combinations while one guy and then they've got a

1235
01:01:04,960 --> 01:01:07,440
Speaker 1: couple of combinations, it's like you shake hands, like all right,

1236
01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:09,040
Speaker 1: it's a good battle. It was. It was a really

1237
01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:10,920
Speaker 1: good battle between those two. But I thought looked really

1238
01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:13,680
Speaker 1: good yesterday. Well, joint practices will be next week with

1239
01:01:13,880 --> 01:01:17,600
Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions on Wednesday and Thursday at Houston Methodist

1240
01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:19,960
Speaker 1: Training Center. And I always go back to this with

1241
01:01:20,120 --> 01:01:23,280
Speaker 1: joint practices. You were talking about how the roster looks

1242
01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:25,560
Speaker 1: against their roster, and you know, you are you holding

1243
01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:27,800
Speaker 1: your own And I always tell the story about two

1244
01:01:27,840 --> 01:01:30,560
Speaker 1: thousand and five when the Broncos were in for joint

1245
01:01:30,640 --> 01:01:34,720
Speaker 1: practices and I went home and I said, oh, we're

1246
01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:39,040
Speaker 1: in trouble. We're in trouble because I wasn't even going

1247
01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:41,280
Speaker 1: that far. I just thought, I hope Denver is going

1248
01:01:41,320 --> 01:01:44,440
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl because we're not what they are.

1249
01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:49,840
Speaker 1: Whatever they are, we're not that because they looked completely different,

1250
01:01:50,040 --> 01:01:54,360
Speaker 1: completely proficient. And that was a Denver team that went

1251
01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:56,520
Speaker 1: to the AC Championship game. And the texts went to

1252
01:01:56,600 --> 01:02:00,960
Speaker 1: in fourteen and I spotted that early in these practices.

1253
01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:05,280
Speaker 1: But I watched yesterday and I'm saying, oh, man, I

1254
01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:07,640
Speaker 1: mean this is this is not even you know, we're

1255
01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:09,880
Speaker 1: not getting out classed here at all. We're actually, you know,

1256
01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:12,920
Speaker 1: making plays and making stops and and that was good. Now,

1257
01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:16,439
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers will torch people this just in this team

1258
01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:18,520
Speaker 1: with him is still capable of beating anybody in the

1259
01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:22,240
Speaker 1: league because he's that good. You know, it's pretty simple, folks.

1260
01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:26,400
Speaker 1: If you can move the sticks on third down, all right, Well,

1261
01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:28,800
Speaker 1: the other team's offense isn't on the field. Your offense

1262
01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:31,360
Speaker 1: is still on the field. And guess what. That's how

1263
01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:34,560
Speaker 1: the game has played. It's like it's sands in the hourglass.

1264
01:02:34,680 --> 01:02:37,600
Speaker 1: You know, the longer you're on the field, the less

1265
01:02:37,640 --> 01:02:41,200
Speaker 1: they are. Hey, isn't that great? So with a quarterback

1266
01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:43,200
Speaker 1: like this, you can make plays, you can win games.

1267
01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:45,120
Speaker 1: And I don't know how they're gonna do this year.

1268
01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:48,480
Speaker 1: This division is kind of weird. Who knows about Minnesota?

1269
01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:51,120
Speaker 1: They have Kubiak, Now that's gonna help their offense, But again,

1270
01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:55,000
Speaker 1: who knows Detroit who? I don't know. They've added some

1271
01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:57,640
Speaker 1: They've added a lot of pieces, a lot of pieces.

1272
01:02:57,880 --> 01:03:01,240
Speaker 1: We're gonna see next week. Daniels and Trey Flowers. Now

1273
01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:03,760
Speaker 1: I don't know how healthy they are. I think Flowers

1274
01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:06,280
Speaker 1: are still on pop So we're gonna see that. Bear

1275
01:03:06,360 --> 01:03:08,480
Speaker 1: should be pretty good. But is anybody gonna be totally

1276
01:03:08,560 --> 01:03:10,760
Speaker 1: shocked if they take a little step back from last year?

1277
01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:13,040
Speaker 1: I'm not. No, I'm not, because offensively I said, I

1278
01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:15,160
Speaker 1: don't think they're very good. I mean, I mean, look,

1279
01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:17,600
Speaker 1: Trubisky went to the Pro Bowl. But I'm not living

1280
01:03:17,600 --> 01:03:19,560
Speaker 1: in Diame with Mitchell Trubisky. I mean I feel I

1281
01:03:19,600 --> 01:03:22,080
Speaker 1: feel like there's Mahomes and Watson and then Trumisky's down

1282
01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:23,880
Speaker 1: here from the twenty seventeen class. Look, he made the

1283
01:03:23,920 --> 01:03:27,080
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl in large part because there was a winning team,

1284
01:03:27,280 --> 01:03:29,560
Speaker 1: and you can only take so many guys. Some guys,

1285
01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:32,560
Speaker 1: you know, beg out of it because they finished playing,

1286
01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:35,640
Speaker 1: or one's going to Super Bowl, whatever, So don't It's

1287
01:03:35,680 --> 01:03:38,040
Speaker 1: a wide open division. Absolutely. I mean it's a hard

1288
01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:39,720
Speaker 1: much of one of the hardest to pick in the

1289
01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:42,160
Speaker 1: whole league right now, I think so. I mean, I

1290
01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:45,160
Speaker 1: think it's I mean, it's hard to pick the AFC South,

1291
01:03:45,200 --> 01:03:47,880
Speaker 1: I guess, but every everyone says, alright, Cults because of

1292
01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:50,640
Speaker 1: what happened right last year. But I think this is

1293
01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:53,760
Speaker 1: even harder to pick. There's no question I think the

1294
01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:57,320
Speaker 1: I think the I think the AFC West is tough

1295
01:03:57,360 --> 01:03:59,440
Speaker 1: from two team perspective, like do you pick the Chargers.

1296
01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:01,720
Speaker 1: Chiefs Ill really likes the Chargers, so I thought that

1297
01:04:01,880 --> 01:04:04,400
Speaker 1: was interesting to hear from him from that perspective. So

1298
01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:06,280
Speaker 1: I think, Dave cust you know what, I think it's

1299
01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:08,440
Speaker 1: gonna be tough, and we're gonna find this out right

1300
01:04:08,760 --> 01:04:11,760
Speaker 1: smack dab in our face is the NFC South. I

1301
01:04:11,840 --> 01:04:14,680
Speaker 1: think Atlanta is gonna come back if they're healthy and

1302
01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:17,200
Speaker 1: they are a little bit better defensively. Carolina has got

1303
01:04:17,240 --> 01:04:19,240
Speaker 1: one of the better front sevens in the league. I mean,

1304
01:04:19,240 --> 01:04:22,680
Speaker 1: their front seven is gonna be incredible. You got the Saints, obviously,

1305
01:04:23,280 --> 01:04:26,479
Speaker 1: Saints Saints, Panther's Falcons. Those three. Now, look, the Bucks

1306
01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:28,760
Speaker 1: are told wild card. But you know Bruce arians is

1307
01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:30,600
Speaker 1: down there and see what he's able to do. But

1308
01:04:30,720 --> 01:04:33,480
Speaker 1: you've got Jamis Winston who can go well, good and

1309
01:04:33,600 --> 01:04:35,960
Speaker 1: bad any day. He could throw off the five hundred

1310
01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:37,920
Speaker 1: and four touchdowns one week, in the next week throw

1311
01:04:37,960 --> 01:04:40,200
Speaker 1: for ninety eight yards and five interceptions. Next we talk

1312
01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:44,840
Speaker 1: about the schedule that finishing three game kick the Titans.

1313
01:04:45,120 --> 01:04:46,760
Speaker 1: You just don't know what they're gonna be at that point.

1314
01:04:47,400 --> 01:04:51,000
Speaker 1: Titans twice and the Bucks sandwiched in between. There. We'll see,

1315
01:04:51,200 --> 01:04:54,160
Speaker 1: all right, we'll see about this now. Brian Body Calhoun

1316
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:56,640
Speaker 1: is a new player for the Texans free agent pickup,

1317
01:04:56,800 --> 01:04:59,520
Speaker 1: and it looks good in that secondary. He's gonna help somehow,

1318
01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:03,200
Speaker 1: some way. So Drew Doherty caught up with him. So

1319
01:05:03,320 --> 01:05:05,880
Speaker 1: the fans, that would be you and us, we can

1320
01:05:05,920 --> 01:05:07,440
Speaker 1: all get to know him a little bit better with

1321
01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:09,920
Speaker 1: a dozen questions. Let's hear it, all right, we got

1322
01:05:09,960 --> 01:05:13,000
Speaker 1: Brian Body Calhoun with us for twelve questions, and let's

1323
01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:14,880
Speaker 1: start first with your first name. I don't think I

1324
01:05:14,960 --> 01:05:18,680
Speaker 1: said that right, did I? Brian? Brian Briant like Brian

1325
01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:21,560
Speaker 1: but Briant like Brian, but Brian, just like if if

1326
01:05:21,600 --> 01:05:24,640
Speaker 1: we was spelling it phonetically, it would be b r

1327
01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:29,240
Speaker 1: ee dash ion, so it is bree. My last name

1328
01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:32,440
Speaker 1: is Dorty. People say Doherty, Dougherty, Dorty dirty, so I

1329
01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:35,040
Speaker 1: can I can understand the mix ups there. Okay, what's

1330
01:05:35,080 --> 01:05:38,320
Speaker 1: the best part of coming to Houston after playing in Cleveland,

1331
01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:41,320
Speaker 1: playing in Minnesota, and college growing up in Delaware, best part,

1332
01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:43,840
Speaker 1: I would say is being around a competitive group and

1333
01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:46,640
Speaker 1: the weather, even though it's so hot, but everywhere everywhere

1334
01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:49,040
Speaker 1: I've been has gotten has gotten cold, So it's gonna

1335
01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:51,160
Speaker 1: be nice here to have a breezy fall and a

1336
01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:54,400
Speaker 1: breezy winter. Yes, it is always a mild fall and

1337
01:05:54,440 --> 01:05:56,680
Speaker 1: winter in comparison, But how have you dealt with the

1338
01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:58,800
Speaker 1: heat after those hot practices in Houston? What do you do?

1339
01:05:59,320 --> 01:06:02,520
Speaker 1: Water a whole lot of water. Bananas are good, Drink

1340
01:06:02,520 --> 01:06:04,960
Speaker 1: a lot of fruit, eat a lot of fruit, like smoothies.

1341
01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:07,400
Speaker 1: But it's all about to stand hydrated. If I'm not

1342
01:06:07,400 --> 01:06:09,600
Speaker 1: getting five bottles of water, and I'm definitely gonna feel

1343
01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:12,920
Speaker 1: it the next day. You are definitely from Maryland, Delaware,

1344
01:06:13,120 --> 01:06:16,440
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania because you just pronounced the word water. H two,

1345
01:06:16,600 --> 01:06:20,000
Speaker 1: how did you pronounce it? Water? Water? Water? Water? That's good.

1346
01:06:20,040 --> 01:06:22,800
Speaker 1: I like it. I'll take that word. Yes, So you're

1347
01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:24,919
Speaker 1: from Wilmington, you grew up with how did you say water?

1348
01:06:25,120 --> 01:06:29,320
Speaker 1: It's water water, potato, potato? But yeah, well I've ever

1349
01:06:29,400 --> 01:06:31,480
Speaker 1: heard of potato though I haven't either, But that's like

1350
01:06:31,560 --> 01:06:35,680
Speaker 1: that old saying, right. Yeah, so you grew up in Wilmington, Delaware.

1351
01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:39,040
Speaker 1: Angelo Blackson, defensive linemen on the team, also grew up

1352
01:06:39,080 --> 01:06:41,400
Speaker 1: in Wilmington, Delaware. You guys have a nice history together,

1353
01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:42,960
Speaker 1: and it goes back to junior high, does it not?

1354
01:06:43,240 --> 01:06:47,800
Speaker 1: It sure does? AU basketball seven eighth grade. H. Angelo

1355
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:52,120
Speaker 1: was probably about six four, six five, probably like two

1356
01:06:52,280 --> 01:06:54,960
Speaker 1: hundred and one eighty. So here's your post. Yeah, definitely

1357
01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:57,800
Speaker 1: definitely the post. And he was just as nasty as

1358
01:06:57,880 --> 01:07:00,640
Speaker 1: he was in the trenches. So if he played basketball,

1359
01:07:00,720 --> 01:07:04,560
Speaker 1: he'd use all six. In the NBA, were you running

1360
01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:05,920
Speaker 1: the point, where you're an off guard? Where were you?

1361
01:07:06,240 --> 01:07:09,200
Speaker 1: It depends on the game. Usually I was running the point.

1362
01:07:09,360 --> 01:07:12,000
Speaker 1: I could play the two guard, but it just depending

1363
01:07:12,040 --> 01:07:13,520
Speaker 1: on how the game was. If we need an extra

1364
01:07:13,560 --> 01:07:15,280
Speaker 1: ball handler, I would stay back court. But if it

1365
01:07:15,440 --> 01:07:17,640
Speaker 1: was something where we was just handling the ball and

1366
01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:19,800
Speaker 1: they didn't press us or anything. Then we are had

1367
01:07:19,840 --> 01:07:21,520
Speaker 1: a guard who can handle that type of stuff. All

1368
01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:24,640
Speaker 1: time favorite basketball player is Lebron James. All time favorite

1369
01:07:24,680 --> 01:07:31,320
Speaker 1: football player is Courtland Finnigan. Really yeah, whoa dude? Sorry,

1370
01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:34,280
Speaker 1: do you know the history? I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm

1371
01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:36,440
Speaker 1: a short corner of I'm a sort I understand why

1372
01:07:36,440 --> 01:07:38,920
Speaker 1: he's just so. He plays with so much fire, plays

1373
01:07:38,920 --> 01:07:42,840
Speaker 1: with so much tenacity. And I actually saw an ESPN

1374
01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:46,360
Speaker 1: insider on that whole deal with Andre Johnson and whatnot,

1375
01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:50,440
Speaker 1: and basically he just he has that bad guy labeled

1376
01:07:50,440 --> 01:07:52,480
Speaker 1: on the field. But this is a violent sport. This

1377
01:07:52,640 --> 01:07:54,120
Speaker 1: is a man's game, you know what I'm saying. So

1378
01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:56,240
Speaker 1: when you're on the field, you have to play like that.

1379
01:07:56,320 --> 01:07:58,400
Speaker 1: But once I saw that he played like that, but

1380
01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:01,280
Speaker 1: he was like the complete opposite off the field, I said,

1381
01:08:01,360 --> 01:08:02,960
Speaker 1: that's someone that I want to model my game. App

1382
01:08:03,040 --> 01:08:05,080
Speaker 1: I want to be gritty, nasty on the field, but

1383
01:08:05,120 --> 01:08:07,920
Speaker 1: when I come up the field, everyone has respect for me,

1384
01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:09,400
Speaker 1: not only as a football player, but just as a

1385
01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:12,960
Speaker 1: person and as an entertainer to someday right as an entertainer,

1386
01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:15,080
Speaker 1: So what's the latest there? You started a rap label,

1387
01:08:15,120 --> 01:08:17,280
Speaker 1: did you not? I did. I started a record label

1388
01:08:17,320 --> 01:08:20,240
Speaker 1: last year, looking to sign sign a few artists here,

1389
01:08:20,479 --> 01:08:24,240
Speaker 1: not looking for too many, not looking for strict deals

1390
01:08:24,280 --> 01:08:26,360
Speaker 1: or anything, but just looking at kind of help the

1391
01:08:26,400 --> 01:08:29,439
Speaker 1: community out. You know. Um, where I'm from, there's there's

1392
01:08:29,520 --> 01:08:31,880
Speaker 1: usually two ways to make it out, and that's with

1393
01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:34,840
Speaker 1: sports and that's an entertainment whatever that being. And I

1394
01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:37,040
Speaker 1: just want to use a platform kind to help people

1395
01:08:37,080 --> 01:08:39,080
Speaker 1: just just a short of time. Sol. I mean, how

1396
01:08:39,160 --> 01:08:41,200
Speaker 1: rare is that You're the guy who's doing a little

1397
01:08:41,200 --> 01:08:43,200
Speaker 1: bit of both of them. Yes, yes, I'm doing a

1398
01:08:43,240 --> 01:08:46,040
Speaker 1: little bit of both. But this will always be number

1399
01:08:46,080 --> 01:08:48,080
Speaker 1: one until it's not number one anymore. I ask you

1400
01:08:48,160 --> 01:08:50,599
Speaker 1: this for or five months ago. I'm gonna ask it again.

Speaker 1: Johnson about this. I will rat him out and they

1435
01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:48,519
Speaker 1: to be. It's historic. It's kind of I equated. I've

1436
01:10:48,520 --> 01:10:51,680
Speaker 1: said this before to Canton in a way. It's not

1437
01:10:51,760 --> 01:10:53,559
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame, but there's a Packer Hall of Fame,

1438
01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:56,040
Speaker 1: and the packers are such a part of NFL history.

1439
01:10:56,120 --> 01:10:58,120
Speaker 1: And it's one hundred years old. And what'd you say?

1440
01:10:58,160 --> 01:11:02,360
Speaker 1: The name of the bar upstairs was nineteen nineteen, which

1441
01:11:02,400 --> 01:11:04,880
Speaker 1: would be one hundred years ago, and sometimes I feel

1442
01:11:04,920 --> 01:11:06,840
Speaker 1: that old. All right, let's get to Landry Locker now

1443
01:11:06,920 --> 01:11:09,960
Speaker 1: with his questions of the day. Good morning, Landry, how

1444
01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:14,360
Speaker 1: are you? Good morning? Guys? What jersey retro jersey is

1445
01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:18,240
Speaker 1: appropriate to wear in Age town? All right, Landry, you

1446
01:11:18,280 --> 01:11:20,800
Speaker 1: can weigh in on this, but yeah, I'm saying, all right.

1447
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:22,760
Speaker 1: We were having a disagreement off the air about this

1448
01:11:22,800 --> 01:11:24,760
Speaker 1: because Johnny wants to buy a bart Star jersey. Now

1449
01:11:24,760 --> 01:11:26,720
Speaker 1: he grew up in Wisconsin. I think bart Star is

1450
01:11:26,760 --> 01:11:31,040
Speaker 1: He's like practically Mount Rushmore NFL material totally acceptable to

1451
01:11:31,160 --> 01:11:33,519
Speaker 1: wear a bart Star jersey in Houston. And I don't

1452
01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:35,559
Speaker 1: even know that I would wear it. Mark. I would

1453
01:11:35,640 --> 01:11:37,400
Speaker 1: probably just put in a frame and put it in

1454
01:11:37,520 --> 01:11:39,720
Speaker 1: my office. But I know there are a lot of

1455
01:11:39,720 --> 01:11:41,920
Speaker 1: people that wear that. Yeah, buy jersey so they can

1456
01:11:42,120 --> 01:11:45,280
Speaker 1: they can wear bart Star is acceptable? Acceptable, Joe Nameeth

1457
01:11:45,479 --> 01:11:48,840
Speaker 1: acceptable acceptable. I mean actually this. John McLean has told

1458
01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:50,920
Speaker 1: the story that Bud Adams could have had Joe Namath,

1459
01:11:50,960 --> 01:11:53,360
Speaker 1: but he knew that the Jets having Joe Namath would

1460
01:11:53,400 --> 01:11:57,600
Speaker 1: helps make the league. Yes, and that's very important, like

1461
01:11:57,640 --> 01:11:59,840
Speaker 1: the Maras the sacrifice Day made for the league with

1462
01:12:00,240 --> 01:12:02,080
Speaker 1: Roselle to give up the TV money and allowed to

1463
01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:05,720
Speaker 1: be dispersed evenly and allowed the league to thrive that

1464
01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:08,439
Speaker 1: way anyway. But we're having a disagreement because in other

1465
01:12:08,479 --> 01:12:11,080
Speaker 1: sports it's hard. In basketball, vander Kid wanted to know

1466
01:12:11,439 --> 01:12:15,080
Speaker 1: what retro jersey could he wear that was non Rocket.

1467
01:12:15,200 --> 01:12:17,320
Speaker 1: You know, we're having this sort of conversation debate, and

1468
01:12:17,360 --> 01:12:20,240
Speaker 1: I said, we came up with doctor Jay. Doctor Jay

1469
01:12:20,479 --> 01:12:24,120
Speaker 1: was acceptable. I don't dispute doctor j Yes, so you

1470
01:12:24,240 --> 01:12:26,200
Speaker 1: and I disputed this. So let's ask Landry because he

1471
01:12:26,240 --> 01:12:28,760
Speaker 1: does not know how we feel about this. The one

1472
01:12:28,840 --> 01:12:32,800
Speaker 1: that got brought up Landry was Michael Jordan Bulls twenty three.

1473
01:12:33,040 --> 01:12:39,760
Speaker 1: Yes or no? Oh hell yeah, you can especially absolutely yes,

1474
01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:43,080
Speaker 1: Jordan is unacceptable to wear in Houston. It's unacceptable. And

1475
01:12:43,160 --> 01:12:44,840
Speaker 1: I'll tell you why why he never did? I mean

1476
01:12:45,120 --> 01:12:46,640
Speaker 1: he didn't get in their way that much. I mean

1477
01:12:47,160 --> 01:12:49,600
Speaker 1: it gets in their way in a debate and the

1478
01:12:49,840 --> 01:12:54,280
Speaker 1: Rockets winning championships. When when you hear the Bulls people

1479
01:12:54,520 --> 01:12:56,880
Speaker 1: or some other people say, well, if Michael Jordan hadn't

1480
01:12:56,880 --> 01:13:00,599
Speaker 1: played baseball, they wouldn't know. See, that's the thing, that's

1481
01:13:00,640 --> 01:13:03,479
Speaker 1: why you cannot wear Jordan and Houston. Jordan is an

1482
01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:06,400
Speaker 1: enemy in Houston because of that, not really a total enemy,

1483
01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:09,400
Speaker 1: but but the specter of Jordan Jordan. It's no good

1484
01:13:09,439 --> 01:13:11,720
Speaker 1: to wear Jordan's jersey. No, the only jerseys that you

1485
01:13:11,840 --> 01:13:14,599
Speaker 1: don't wear, Like you talked about Stockton him alone, Why

1486
01:13:14,640 --> 01:13:16,680
Speaker 1: do peop Why wouldn't you can't wear that? Because they

1487
01:13:16,760 --> 01:13:20,400
Speaker 1: beat the Rocket right right right? But Jordan Rockets hard like,

1488
01:13:20,400 --> 01:13:22,800
Speaker 1: I understand where where he is in the artist Jordan

1489
01:13:22,960 --> 01:13:26,439
Speaker 1: theoretically according to some and not me, because I think

1490
01:13:26,680 --> 01:13:29,000
Speaker 1: and the Rockets had a good record against Jordan when

1491
01:13:29,040 --> 01:13:31,200
Speaker 1: they played in the regular season all those years, but

1492
01:13:31,400 --> 01:13:34,240
Speaker 1: obviously they didn't win finals in those years. They didn't

1493
01:13:34,240 --> 01:13:36,320
Speaker 1: go to finals other than when Jordan. I now, Jordan

1494
01:13:36,400 --> 01:13:38,320
Speaker 1: got back for the lay part of the season in

1495
01:13:38,360 --> 01:13:41,719
Speaker 1: the second championship year. I get all that, But Jordan,

1496
01:13:41,840 --> 01:13:45,439
Speaker 1: according to some, theoretically beat the Rockets because how did

1497
01:13:45,479 --> 01:13:48,759
Speaker 1: he continue to play he would have, which is not fair.

1498
01:13:49,200 --> 01:13:52,280
Speaker 1: So I'm pro Rocket, I'm pro Houston. You cannot wear

1499
01:13:52,400 --> 01:13:54,920
Speaker 1: Jordan and Houston. I'm pro Rocket as well. But you're

1500
01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:58,840
Speaker 1: dealing in a hypothetical. You're dealing But but definitely comes

1501
01:13:58,840 --> 01:14:00,640
Speaker 1: to me and says, oh, the Rockets made out of

1502
01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:05,040
Speaker 1: won the championship with if Jordan had played, that's I

1503
01:14:05,080 --> 01:14:07,920
Speaker 1: don't take that as a knock on Jordan. I take

1504
01:14:08,000 --> 01:14:11,680
Speaker 1: that as foolish words coming from ignorant people. What other

1505
01:14:11,880 --> 01:14:14,920
Speaker 1: what other NBA players might be acceptable. Hey, I'm actually

1506
01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:17,920
Speaker 1: an expert on this because I wear this gear around

1507
01:14:18,080 --> 01:14:21,880
Speaker 1: Houston and they had some very strong beef with Houston

1508
01:14:21,960 --> 01:14:25,160
Speaker 1: in the nineties. But I have two Seattle Sonics hats

1509
01:14:25,360 --> 01:14:28,240
Speaker 1: and I have a Seattle Sonics shooting shirt. But the

1510
01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:31,640
Speaker 1: thing about it is it's more about respect because number one,

1511
01:14:31,720 --> 01:14:34,840
Speaker 1: Seattle didn't really prevent Houston from winning their championships, and

1512
01:14:35,000 --> 01:14:38,040
Speaker 1: number two, I think it's a disgrace that Seattle no

1513
01:14:38,160 --> 01:14:41,080
Speaker 1: longer has a team, and as as as bitter as

1514
01:14:41,160 --> 01:14:43,240
Speaker 1: the rivalries were in the nineties, I think it's almost

1515
01:14:43,280 --> 01:14:45,760
Speaker 1: paying homage to that era, despite the fact that the

1516
01:14:45,880 --> 01:14:48,640
Speaker 1: Rockets and Sonics had some battles. Landry, I'd be with

1517
01:14:48,760 --> 01:14:51,200
Speaker 1: you on a Sonic stuff. I want to get Sonics.

1518
01:14:51,520 --> 01:14:53,000
Speaker 1: First of all, I love the color accommodation to be

1519
01:14:53,080 --> 01:14:54,680
Speaker 1: wearing green Bay. This is where I grew up, so

1520
01:14:54,720 --> 01:14:57,080
Speaker 1: I love the green gold. So I love the Sonics.

1521
01:14:57,160 --> 01:14:59,240
Speaker 1: Sean Camp was one of my favorite players. That's my

1522
01:14:59,280 --> 01:15:01,600
Speaker 1: first jersey as kid. Yeah, Sean Camp was one of

1523
01:15:01,600 --> 01:15:03,320
Speaker 1: my favorites. That's why I'm playing in high school and

1524
01:15:03,360 --> 01:15:05,280
Speaker 1: I was like, who's this guy? And then he goes

1525
01:15:05,320 --> 01:15:07,160
Speaker 1: to the league and does all that he does. I mean,

1526
01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:10,080
Speaker 1: the super songs were hard to watch. If the Sonics

1527
01:15:10,120 --> 01:15:12,720
Speaker 1: were still battling, the Rockets wouldn't wear and they were

1528
01:15:12,720 --> 01:15:14,400
Speaker 1: still and it would be a little different story. But

1529
01:15:15,160 --> 01:15:18,000
Speaker 1: that big Doctor Jay is a good one. But in basketball,

1530
01:15:18,800 --> 01:15:21,920
Speaker 1: the Eastern Western teams play each other a whole heck

1531
01:15:21,960 --> 01:15:23,760
Speaker 1: of a lot more than in the NFL. Like you can,

1532
01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:25,880
Speaker 1: there are a lot of NFC jerseys you're gonna wear,

1533
01:15:25,960 --> 01:15:28,960
Speaker 1: Like if could you wear I don't know, a Joe

1534
01:15:29,040 --> 01:15:31,640
Speaker 1: Fiseman Washington Redskins jersey. Yeah, like nobody would care and

1535
01:15:31,680 --> 01:15:34,760
Speaker 1: yet but it wouldn't be cool, No, it wouldn't that. Well,

1536
01:15:35,240 --> 01:15:39,400
Speaker 1: Darryl Greene would be cool. Yeah, well he's also but

1537
01:15:39,520 --> 01:15:41,840
Speaker 1: like you're not gonna have too much beef I think

1538
01:15:41,880 --> 01:15:46,080
Speaker 1: with the NFL because AFCNFC just don't play that that often.

1539
01:15:46,520 --> 01:15:48,200
Speaker 1: You know, if the if the Texas got to the

1540
01:15:48,200 --> 01:15:50,559
Speaker 1: Super Bowl and play an NFC team and it will

1541
01:15:50,560 --> 01:15:53,360
Speaker 1: say it's the Packers and it's this nitty gritty game

1542
01:15:53,400 --> 01:15:55,320
Speaker 1: and Aaron Rodgers has a drive that wins it at

1543
01:15:55,360 --> 01:15:57,800
Speaker 1: the end, you never you better never wear an Aaron

1544
01:15:57,880 --> 01:16:01,400
Speaker 1: Rodgers jersey. Vander Kidd brought up Larry Bird No way,

1545
01:16:01,880 --> 01:16:05,519
Speaker 1: totally unacceptable and I love Celtics. Lopez is not a

1546
01:16:05,560 --> 01:16:08,000
Speaker 1: fan of that Larry Bird take. He is not a fan.

1547
01:16:08,200 --> 01:16:10,960
Speaker 1: He just woke. You just woke up the OGA. Wait wait, wait, wait,

1548
01:16:11,200 --> 01:16:14,080
Speaker 1: you guys have got to be kid. No, you're saying

1549
01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:17,920
Speaker 1: Bird is acceptable one hundred percent? Wait why is Bird

1550
01:16:17,920 --> 01:16:21,519
Speaker 1: acceptable to wear in Houston? It's totally unacceptable. Oh my gosh.

1551
01:16:21,800 --> 01:16:25,599
Speaker 1: Beat the Rockets twice in the eighties they made the finals, Littlepez.

1552
01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:29,280
Speaker 1: I understand that. But Larry Bird is just legendary. Like

1553
01:16:29,400 --> 01:16:31,840
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan. He's in the same category. Can you wear

1554
01:16:31,920 --> 01:16:37,080
Speaker 1: Magic Johnson? Uh? Well wait, and you beat him, you

1555
01:16:37,200 --> 01:16:39,519
Speaker 1: beat him to get to the finals. No, no, no,

1556
01:16:39,960 --> 01:16:46,320
Speaker 1: Larry Bird is absolute. What about pat Riley San Diego Rockets. Well, yeah,

1557
01:16:46,600 --> 01:16:49,360
Speaker 1: it's super cool. Can you find me one of those

1558
01:16:50,800 --> 01:16:53,960
Speaker 1: San Diego Rockets? Pat Riley, you just hit on something

1559
01:16:54,040 --> 01:16:56,040
Speaker 1: that the franchise actually started there. A lot of people

1560
01:16:56,120 --> 01:16:58,720
Speaker 1: don't realize that, and you'd think it was so automatic

1561
01:16:58,840 --> 01:17:01,840
Speaker 1: that a Houston and eighteen would be named the Rockets. Well,

1562
01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:04,080
Speaker 1: pat Riley is hated in this town. But you can

1563
01:17:04,160 --> 01:17:06,639
Speaker 1: wear it, pat Riley. San Diego Rockets do that because

1564
01:17:06,680 --> 01:17:09,760
Speaker 1: it's a San Diego Rocket. Yeah, we will allow it.

1565
01:17:10,240 --> 01:17:12,639
Speaker 1: We will allow it. But I don't know about Bird. Listen,

1566
01:17:12,720 --> 01:17:15,880
Speaker 1: I don't mind tweaking people a little bit. But even

1567
01:17:15,920 --> 01:17:19,519
Speaker 1: I wouldn't wear Larry Bird. I mean, I'm not in

1568
01:17:19,680 --> 01:17:23,320
Speaker 1: not in us. What about an Earl Campbell Saints. That's

1569
01:17:23,360 --> 01:17:26,679
Speaker 1: kind of cool. Actually, you know what, John, I just could,

1570
01:17:26,760 --> 01:17:28,120
Speaker 1: I mean I was, I was. I didn't get here

1571
01:17:28,160 --> 01:17:31,080
Speaker 1: to Lady three, but I still had his affinity for Earl.

1572
01:17:31,160 --> 01:17:33,559
Speaker 1: I don't know. And part of it is also because

1573
01:17:33,600 --> 01:17:37,520
Speaker 1: the Oilers. Earl is such an iconic jersey at Columbia,

1574
01:17:37,600 --> 01:17:40,679
Speaker 1: Blue Jersey is so iconic. I don't know that I could.

1575
01:17:40,720 --> 01:17:42,719
Speaker 1: And I love the Saints. I love the Saints colors.

1576
01:17:43,040 --> 01:17:45,439
Speaker 1: I mean I was a huge fan. I just couldn't

1577
01:17:45,479 --> 01:17:47,599
Speaker 1: do it. I feel like the Saints of the artists, personally,

1578
01:17:48,160 --> 01:17:50,200
Speaker 1: of the Texans. In a way, the Saints are kind

1579
01:17:50,200 --> 01:17:53,160
Speaker 1: of like our sister l NC. I'm by that. And

1580
01:17:53,439 --> 01:17:56,040
Speaker 1: and I think the Saints are not hated in Houston

1581
01:17:56,080 --> 01:17:58,760
Speaker 1: at all. I mean, you know you want to beat them,

1582
01:17:58,840 --> 01:18:00,840
Speaker 1: but it's not like this. It's not like you know

1583
01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:03,880
Speaker 1: who from DFW. I mean, that's just and I know

1584
01:18:04,040 --> 01:18:06,080
Speaker 1: that's a lot of places, so you know, people are

1585
01:18:06,160 --> 01:18:08,920
Speaker 1: listening right now. I like both teams. Don't get me started.

1586
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:12,759
Speaker 1: I still know how don't get me started one. Although

1587
01:18:12,800 --> 01:18:15,600
Speaker 1: if you like us too, no, but I appreciate you.

1588
01:18:15,720 --> 01:18:18,160
Speaker 1: I was. I was telling the guys before the show,

1589
01:18:19,000 --> 01:18:22,040
Speaker 1: just jerseys, just jerseys, regardless of teams. I mean, you

1590
01:18:22,040 --> 01:18:25,200
Speaker 1: could say Freddy Lewis or something, but the Saint Louis

1591
01:18:25,240 --> 01:18:29,400
Speaker 1: Spirits abah, They're fantastic, fantastic. Yeah. I mean that's one

1592
01:18:29,439 --> 01:18:32,000
Speaker 1: of the best jerseys ever, ever, one of the best ever.

1593
01:18:32,080 --> 01:18:34,320
Speaker 1: I mean, you get me a bad News Barns twenty four,

1594
01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:37,760
Speaker 1: I'll take that all day, every day. Yep. I mean

1595
01:18:37,840 --> 01:18:40,599
Speaker 1: the ABA jerseys work. I mean that's the Doctor J jersey.

1596
01:18:40,600 --> 01:18:43,479
Speaker 1: I would want to wear the thirty two nets. I'd

1597
01:18:43,520 --> 01:18:46,320
Speaker 1: wear that all day. Yeah. It's funny because I really

1598
01:18:46,360 --> 01:18:49,400
Speaker 1: feel like there aren't too many of current teams, but

1599
01:18:49,720 --> 01:18:52,439
Speaker 1: former players on other teams that you really feel comfortable

1600
01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:54,840
Speaker 1: wearing in Houston that you would. I just feel like

1601
01:18:54,920 --> 01:18:57,920
Speaker 1: there aren't, so there aren't too many. I know a

1602
01:18:58,040 --> 01:19:01,120
Speaker 1: Patriots fan that I and I like this because they

1603
01:19:01,200 --> 01:19:05,120
Speaker 1: wear a Grogan jersey. I can I can live with that. Actually,

1604
01:19:05,240 --> 01:19:07,160
Speaker 1: I could live with the Steve Broken jersey. Okay, watch

1605
01:19:07,200 --> 01:19:08,640
Speaker 1: this one. I'm gonna throw this back at these two

1606
01:19:08,680 --> 01:19:13,080
Speaker 1: in studio. Okay, what's worse wearing a Vince Young jersey

1607
01:19:13,160 --> 01:19:15,960
Speaker 1: and college station or a Johnny Manziell jersey in Austin.

1608
01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:18,680
Speaker 1: I don't think either one of those is bad. I

1609
01:19:18,760 --> 01:19:21,640
Speaker 1: think both of those transcended. I really do. I know

1610
01:19:21,680 --> 01:19:23,800
Speaker 1: a lot of Longhorn fans that loved Manziel and I

1611
01:19:23,880 --> 01:19:28,280
Speaker 1: love I love Manziel. Yeah, yeah, really interesting. And you know,

1612
01:19:28,400 --> 01:19:31,000
Speaker 1: I remember when the Longhorns were in the championship at

1613
01:19:31,000 --> 01:19:33,120
Speaker 1: OZH six and I put it out there on on

1614
01:19:33,240 --> 01:19:35,760
Speaker 1: the lines and I said, what Aggies are you rooting

1615
01:19:35,800 --> 01:19:37,800
Speaker 1: for the Longhorns And a lot of Aggie said yeah,

1616
01:19:37,880 --> 01:19:41,080
Speaker 1: they were lying, No, no, no, I did, I did.

1617
01:19:41,160 --> 01:19:44,400
Speaker 1: I absolutely did, and and and really absolutely I would

1618
01:19:44,520 --> 01:19:48,360
Speaker 1: rather put an ice pick in my temple than than

1619
01:19:48,600 --> 01:19:52,360
Speaker 1: a cheer for the long Horns. But but but that day,

1620
01:19:52,720 --> 01:19:54,960
Speaker 1: and it wasn't even that season because you know the Aggies,

1621
01:19:55,040 --> 01:19:56,680
Speaker 1: you know, we're playing them, and they didn't have a

1622
01:19:56,760 --> 01:19:59,920
Speaker 1: chance to win the conference. But I mean, I want

1623
01:20:00,120 --> 01:20:01,920
Speaker 1: the Longhorns to lose it. But once they got to

1624
01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:03,519
Speaker 1: that title game, I don't know what it was. It

1625
01:20:03,600 --> 01:20:06,160
Speaker 1: was like Texas came out or you know, the state

1626
01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:09,680
Speaker 1: of Texas came out in me or v Y from Madison,

1627
01:20:09,840 --> 01:20:11,439
Speaker 1: you know, great store. I don't know what it was.

1628
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:14,240
Speaker 1: Here's the thing, and I've always said this, guys, I

1629
01:20:14,439 --> 01:20:16,599
Speaker 1: don't know ninety percent of the time, unless the Aggies

1630
01:20:16,600 --> 01:20:19,040
Speaker 1: are playing in college football or the Texans or whatever.

1631
01:20:19,560 --> 01:20:21,560
Speaker 1: Unless not have a vested interest in a team, I

1632
01:20:21,640 --> 01:20:23,639
Speaker 1: don't know what team I'm even gonna cheer for until

1633
01:20:23,680 --> 01:20:26,680
Speaker 1: I sit down and turn on the TV. A lot

1634
01:20:26,720 --> 01:20:28,400
Speaker 1: of times I'm that way. A lot of times I'm

1635
01:20:28,400 --> 01:20:30,000
Speaker 1: the same way, like if I'm watching two teams that

1636
01:20:30,040 --> 01:20:32,400
Speaker 1: I don't really have a connection to in anyway, I'm

1637
01:20:32,479 --> 01:20:35,200
Speaker 1: rooting for the best game humanly possible. But the other

1638
01:20:35,280 --> 01:20:38,479
Speaker 1: thing is ultimately the team in that process, Right, Ultimately, John,

1639
01:20:38,520 --> 01:20:40,400
Speaker 1: you start pulling for one team and I can't tell

1640
01:20:40,439 --> 01:20:42,840
Speaker 1: you why. I can't tell you why it happens, but

1641
01:20:43,080 --> 01:20:45,439
Speaker 1: it just happens. And I said, falling in love, it's

1642
01:20:45,439 --> 01:20:47,360
Speaker 1: really more like a one night stand. It's like, that's

1643
01:20:47,400 --> 01:20:50,080
Speaker 1: exactly right, but tomorrow I don't care. Yeah, you're lost

1644
01:20:50,120 --> 01:20:52,360
Speaker 1: for sixteen minutes. And then after that, I left v

1645
01:20:52,640 --> 01:20:54,519
Speaker 1: Y at six in the morning, and I did I

1646
01:20:54,600 --> 01:21:00,960
Speaker 1: did the idea back to Aggie and I marched back

1647
01:21:01,000 --> 01:21:03,799
Speaker 1: to North gate, and uh, and I put the Longhorns

1648
01:21:03,840 --> 01:21:06,519
Speaker 1: and put the long I had a little puppy in

1649
01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:09,040
Speaker 1: my purse, and I just I just walked back to

1650
01:21:09,120 --> 01:21:13,880
Speaker 1: college station. I started hating, hating the Longhorns more than ever. Okay,

1651
01:21:13,920 --> 01:21:18,000
Speaker 1: so so to that question, which Longhorn would Aggie fans

1652
01:21:18,160 --> 01:21:22,000
Speaker 1: just despise? In which Aggie do Longhorns fans to despise?

1653
01:21:22,960 --> 01:21:26,720
Speaker 1: Oh don't you? That is a great one. I've never

1654
01:21:26,840 --> 01:21:29,519
Speaker 1: been a big fan of Ricky Williams and don't know.

1655
01:21:29,600 --> 01:21:31,040
Speaker 1: I like his game, don't get me wrong, and I

1656
01:21:31,160 --> 01:21:33,679
Speaker 1: liked him as a pro. But he broke the record

1657
01:21:33,720 --> 01:21:36,519
Speaker 1: against the Aggies. You know, he went for two thirty six.

1658
01:21:36,600 --> 01:21:38,040
Speaker 1: I think it was two or John would know the

1659
01:21:38,160 --> 01:21:41,560
Speaker 1: number exactly. He went for two thirty six, and that

1660
01:21:41,680 --> 01:21:43,680
Speaker 1: was a game that mattered. Had the Aggies beat him,

1661
01:21:43,680 --> 01:21:46,519
Speaker 1: I think they would have won the conference. About I

1662
01:21:46,520 --> 01:21:48,679
Speaker 1: think it could probably be like Leland McElroy or something,

1663
01:21:48,720 --> 01:21:50,479
Speaker 1: because you have to go that far back to remember

1664
01:21:50,479 --> 01:21:52,559
Speaker 1: the Aggies, you know, really sticking it to the Longhorns.

1665
01:21:52,600 --> 01:21:54,760
Speaker 1: You know, in my lifetime, like late nineties nine, you

1666
01:21:54,800 --> 01:21:56,040
Speaker 1: didn't really have it. So I'd have to go to

1667
01:21:56,160 --> 01:21:59,240
Speaker 1: Leland McElroy probably got a better one. Okay, I guess

1668
01:21:59,280 --> 01:22:02,639
Speaker 1: he doesn't remember Von Miller. I guess he doesn't remember

1669
01:22:02,760 --> 01:22:04,840
Speaker 1: that in Austin. But that's another show. I was there,

1670
01:22:04,920 --> 01:22:07,760
Speaker 1: I was there the concussion. Okay, Landry, I'll give you

1671
01:22:07,840 --> 01:22:10,160
Speaker 1: a name. But Lopez's answer, if you were a Longhorn,

1672
01:22:10,240 --> 01:22:14,280
Speaker 1: Dante Hall, I gotta love it one for you though. Yeah,

1673
01:22:14,280 --> 01:22:18,519
Speaker 1: Stephen McGee, yeah, yeah, yeah, that one hurts. Talk about

1674
01:22:18,600 --> 01:22:21,720
Speaker 1: college sports, right, and it's the state and you can

1675
01:22:21,920 --> 01:22:25,720
Speaker 1: maybe get into that and cross those lines. But professional sports, no, Like,

1676
01:22:26,040 --> 01:22:29,760
Speaker 1: if you're a Texans fan, and you know, if Houston fan,

1677
01:22:30,120 --> 01:22:32,920
Speaker 1: you cannot root for the Cowboys under any circumstances unless

1678
01:22:33,000 --> 01:22:34,840
Speaker 1: it's to be a division opponent to help you get

1679
01:22:34,880 --> 01:22:36,640
Speaker 1: in or Okay, well here's one, here's one for all

1680
01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:40,360
Speaker 1: of us. What about those Texans fans that were Titans

1681
01:22:40,439 --> 01:22:43,879
Speaker 1: fans twice a year because of Vince Young. Yeah, that's

1682
01:22:43,960 --> 01:22:48,320
Speaker 1: the text, Daves converted back. That's not acceptable. But there

1683
01:22:48,360 --> 01:22:49,280
Speaker 1: were a lot of those. There were a lot of

1684
01:22:49,320 --> 01:22:51,240
Speaker 1: Texas on the watch you for a view. Why when

1685
01:22:51,280 --> 01:22:54,120
Speaker 1: when the Texans started Jonesy knows this, there were a

1686
01:22:54,240 --> 01:22:56,920
Speaker 1: ton of Titans fans still in Houston who would refuse

1687
01:22:57,040 --> 01:23:00,320
Speaker 1: to go to the Texans side of things, and it

1688
01:23:00,479 --> 01:23:02,639
Speaker 1: was weird. Songs were written about this kind of stuff.

1689
01:23:02,800 --> 01:23:05,600
Speaker 1: I wrote one about it. Now here's another one. Cowboys
