1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,280 Speaker 1: Welcome and everybody to a Friday edition of Texans All 2 00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:08,280 Speaker 1: Access from the Honday Texans Radio Studio. I am your host, 3 00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:11,479 Speaker 1: John Harris joining me right off the top the voice 4 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: of the Texans, Mark Vanimir Mark. It's July ninth. That's 5 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,639 Speaker 1: all I have to say. How are you feeling, Johnny? 6 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: When you say it like that, it's feeling like it's 7 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 1: getting closer, closer and closer. And look, I gotta work 8 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 1: on my tan a little bit. I'm just kidding. I 9 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: really don't. I don't tan. I just get you know, 10 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 1: I go from like transparent to burnt. That's what I do. 11 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:38,840 Speaker 1: But I'm so excited about Camp. I got a meeting 12 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,879 Speaker 1: on Monday about training. Camp set up a lot of 13 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,560 Speaker 1: different meetings going on preseason TV stuff. I mean, it's 14 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: all happening very soon. Kevin Coogler, Spencer Tillman by the 15 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: way back on the tube doing the preseason stuff with 16 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 1: you and Drew on the sideline. Drew doing a lot 17 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: of it, but you're doing some special contributions the preseason 18 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 1: TV broadcast. So we're looking forward to that on our 19 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 1: partner ABC thirteen coming up starting in August. Now, I 20 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 1: can't remember I don't remember seeing this, and it could 21 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 1: have been while I was while I was gone, you know, traveling, 22 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: but I was checking Twitter as I was driving the 23 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 1: last few days I was doing radio those days I 24 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: was checking. We have not announced fans for sure. I mean, 25 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: fans can't be there at training camp practices, and I'm 26 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: assuming that's gonna happen. We have not announced that yet, correct. 27 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: I don't think we've announced it the way the way 28 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: everything's gonna be distributed, because we have to be careful. 29 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: It's limited compared to years past when we've had it 30 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: because you have the twenty foot rule and there's a 31 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: different sort of configurations. So all that information is forthcoming 32 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: or coming soon. But just stay tuned, stay stay with us. 33 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: Season ticket members obviously have a big advantage here, as 34 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: they should and uh, but everybody's going to have their 35 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: chance to tangle with the Texans, tangle with the Texans, 36 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: to get happily involved at the Houston Texans this year 37 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: at NRG Stadium, which is the most important thing of all, 38 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 1: as we all agree that is that is very good, 39 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: all right. Later in the show, when I go around 40 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: in the NFL, there is some news about a Kansas 41 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 1: city chief, which is probably the least shocking news that 42 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 1: I have heard all day. Also, Mark, does the name 43 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: Zeila avant Garde meet anything to you? No? Okay, good, 44 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: very good, because the next segment, the next segment is 45 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: going to be absolutely perfect, and I will explain when 46 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 1: we get there. Why no, no, don't look it up. No, 47 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 1: not doing it. Okay, all right, Just know that Zela 48 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: avant Guard is a true hooper. She is a big 49 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: time basketball player, and you'll see exactly why she is 50 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 1: relevant in our next segment. In the next segment, but 51 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: we're gonna start off with one of my favorites. You know, 52 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 1: I love going and playing blackjack casinos. I love going 53 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: to casinos, one of my favorite things. Whether you call 54 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: it ace you do see in between whatever. Over unders 55 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 1: are always my favorites. I've come up with at least 56 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 1: eight of them. You're going over, You're going under, You're 57 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 1: ready ready Number one. Now, listening closely to how I 58 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 1: say this one. Starting offensive linemen in the exact same 59 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: spot in twenty twenty one for the Texans as it 60 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: was in twenty nineteen. All right, Starting offensive linemen in 61 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: the exact same spot at twenty twenty one as they 62 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: were in twenty nineteen. The over under is two. Now 63 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: to jog your memory. In twenty nineteen, when all was healthy, 64 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: all We're healthy, Larry Tunsil left tackle, left guards, Max 65 00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: sharping centers, Nick Martin, right garben Zack Fulton, and the 66 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: right tackle was Titus Howard. How many of those players 67 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: will be in the exact same spot in twenty twenty 68 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: one that said the number at two? All right, so 69 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: I can't pick two, then I gotta go over under that. 70 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: You gotta go over under. If I have to pick 71 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: over or under that, I'll go under. I know it 72 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: seems crazy because Wooden Howard play right tackle and Sharp. 73 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: I mean, the odds are one of those guys is 74 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: going to be in on one of those spots at 75 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: the very least in Laramie is a fixture of left tackle. However, Johnny, 76 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:36,239 Speaker 1: I think that the Howard to guard thing could be real, 77 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: especially if they feel Cannon's gonna he's gonna be a 78 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: better tackle. It wasn't that good at guard in New England, 79 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: so maybe that's a factor. Maybe that's for real, and 80 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: Howard has to move inside, and maybe he's one of 81 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 1: your top five guys so you feel like, let's move 82 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 1: inside first round draft towards talented guy still should be 83 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: able to handle it. Let's go and maybe Sharping does play, 84 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: but maybe he gets beat out by one of those 85 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: other guys. I was writing about this today for the 86 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 1: annual Texans publication, which is called a Yearbook, and it's 87 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: really kind of we partner with somebody, And I always 88 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 1: argued about calling it that, but that's what it's called. 89 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: But I wrote about the old line and it's one 90 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 1: of those if everything breaks right, Johnny, I mean, yeah, 91 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: Leant Taylor. You know, you have a lot of different 92 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: options there. If Cannon, Taylor, Brett, they're all healthy, you know, 93 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: they all come in and do their thing, and Cannon's 94 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 1: playing tackle and Taylor's playing guard. I don't know, it's 95 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: it could work out to a situation where Sharping is 96 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 1: either a role player or he starts. So maybe they 97 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: moved in the other guard spot. What about Sharping at center? 98 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: You've always talked about that possibility. Yep, you know Britt 99 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: didn't start out that way. I heard Wade Smith talking 100 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: about Britt in Seattle, and Wade was in camp with 101 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 1: Seattle for fifteen minutes and Britt came in as a 102 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: tackle and now he's playing center. And look wayde knows 103 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,919 Speaker 1: all about that because he's played every position on the line. 104 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna say it's under two. Thank you boy. 105 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 1: I think it's right. Ato, I think it's right at two. 106 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: I think that's two. Tackles are or what they are. 107 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 1: The question becomes and that's why I said twenty nineteen 108 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: because I wanted to make sure. Now Max got a 109 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 1: number of starts in twenty twenty, but it wasn't as 110 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: consistent as it was twenty nineteen. When he stepped in 111 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: there week three, he was the starter for the rest 112 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: of you. That's why he used twenty nineteen. Okay, I 113 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: use not receivers but pass catchers. Okay, pass catchers in 114 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, with six hundred fifty yards receiving plus 115 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 1: on the season. Last year the number was two. It 116 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: was Will Fuller's Brandy Cooks. Huh. So I set the 117 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:58,280 Speaker 1: number at two over under pass catchers with six hundred 118 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 1: fifty yards on the sea season six hundred and fifty 119 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: yards plus or more, just to give you kind of 120 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: a gage. Last year, Will Fuller eleven games, eight hundred 121 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: seventy nine yards. Brandy Cooks had nearly twelve hundred and 122 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: fifteen games. He had one thousand, one hundred and fifty. 123 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: Now those are the only two that was over that number. 124 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: But there were three guys that were at four hundred 125 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: Kiki Qt at four hundred, Jord Nakens at four h three, 126 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: Randal Cop at four forty one. But Aiken's played the 127 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: most games. He played only thirteen games. Qt did at eight. 128 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: Cop didn't ten. You also two that were at three hundred, 129 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: Darren Fells, David Johnson. It feels like it should go 130 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: over that number, but six fifty is not the easiest 131 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: number to hit. But I'm saying it's two you're going 132 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: over or under. It's look, it's a lot of yards 133 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: considering when you look at the receiver position. I know 134 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: you said pass catchers, but just the wide receivers. It's 135 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: brain siletzer to retrying to work this stuff out. You 136 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: have Cooks, so you feel confident healthy, he's gonna have 137 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: close to a thousand or whatever. It's gonna be right, 138 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: so it'll be really solid for him. Does Cobbs stay healthy? QT. 139 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: We pointed this out last night. Last five games of 140 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 1: the season average seventy two yards per game. Is he 141 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 1: gonna do that for sixteen games? You have too many 142 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: other guys vying for attention of the football to expect 143 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: that from Kiki. He's capable of it, maybe, but to 144 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: expect that and maybe he gets beat out altogether. I 145 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: don't know. They have all those guys. Conley, you know, 146 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: how does all this work out? Nico Collins. I don't 147 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 1: expect Nico Collins to get there, at least as a rookie, 148 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: but you never know. He might take enough catches and 149 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: yards away from other guys to disable their ability to 150 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: get there. And then the tight end position, Yeah, I 151 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: feel pretty decent about Aikin's possibly getting there, But Brevit 152 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,319 Speaker 1: Jordan's gonna steal reps and Farrell Brand's gonna have some catches, 153 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: And what if wearing finally turns into wearing the tight 154 00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: end that you always wanted him to be when you 155 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: drafted him in the round. So I would say, I gosh, 156 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 1: and I can't go two again. I gotta go over 157 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: or under two. You're just killing me here today because 158 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: I think two is the number. Somehow somebody else gets 159 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: above six fifty. But I'll go low again here. Maybe 160 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: it's a pessimism Friday here on Texans Radio. I'll go lower. 161 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,959 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean they again have a productive year to year, 162 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 1: by the way, it just means they're spreading everything out, 163 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,199 Speaker 1: the balls being spread around and all the different weapons 164 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: they have. Look, one, are these backs. No, I don't 165 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: think a back's gonna end up with six to fifty, 166 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 1: but these backs are gonna steal catches and yards away 167 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 1: from other pass catchers. So I would say it's under. 168 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: There were forty eight hundred forty three four thousand, hundred 169 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 1: forty three receiving yards he had last year. I don't 170 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: think they get to that total even with an extra game. 171 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: But there is an extra game. So what you're looking for, hopefully, 172 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: if you were gonna go over, you'd you'd have three 173 00:09:56,160 --> 00:10:00,319 Speaker 1: guys you say, three that averaged forty yards. It's a 174 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: game or more. It's possible. I mean, it is possible, 175 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: but that group has I mean, just look at the 176 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 1: games played from last year. Cooks missed a game, Fuller 177 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 1: missed five, Cobb missed six, a Kid's missed three, Q 178 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: Team missed eight, Johnson missed four. So you know those 179 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: are the guys that were kind of a mix for it. 180 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 1: So yeah, I think you're probably right. I think the 181 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 1: number could be could be under, and I think it 182 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: could be somebody. I think it could be very similar 183 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: to last year where Cooks is kind of in a 184 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 1: thousand range, but then you have a bunch of guys 185 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: that are five hundred yards, you know, four hundred, five 186 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 1: hundred yards that you could have even more where it's 187 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: spread out. So I don't think that's being pessimistic. I 188 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 1: think I think you're actually onto something. I think that's 189 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: kind of the way I would see it going. Now, 190 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: you mentioned a guy that is going to be in 191 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 1: that mix, and I think it's really difficult to talk 192 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 1: about him in totality because he has missed a lot 193 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 1: of games. So I think it's easier to talk about 194 00:10:55,520 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: him on an average. And that's kiki QT over under, 195 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: and this covers you on injury over under kiki qt 196 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: average catches per game. So last year he played in 197 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: eight games, he had forty catches. Those five catches per game, 198 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: we can do the math for you about about eight. 199 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: Where you go this year, I'm putting you over under 200 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: average catches per game at four and a half, So 201 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: if he plays a full year, seventeen games he plays, 202 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:36,839 Speaker 1: you're talking about seventy five catches. But this covers you 203 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: you don't you know this. If he plays one game 204 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 1: and has five, that's over. You're good. Um. If he 205 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: has a Colts Flight game where he gets eleven and 206 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 1: that's the only game he plays, great. He does play 207 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: the Colts twice, so that can make up for for 208 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 1: a lost time if you need it. But overall average 209 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: catches per game, the over under for Kiki QT is 210 00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: four and a half. It's a real tough one again 211 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: because I just see so much receiving talent. And before 212 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: anyone scoffs at me, look at these names, look at 213 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 1: these guys. These guys have talent. These guys can do 214 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: some damage that they've acquired. Having said all that, though, 215 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: oh gosh, and then you look at Collins Cobb and 216 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: their ability to take catches away from Kiki when he's 217 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 1: out there. But when Kiki's out there, I think good 218 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 1: things happen. I do think that he's committed. He knows 219 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 1: how important this is year four for him. Are we 220 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 1: already in year four of QT? Yes? Fully, yes? Twenty Yeah, 221 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: I mean it's unbelievable. Let's think about it like that. 222 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: That really escalated quickly getting into year four for Kiki QT. 223 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go over, Johnny. I'm taking the gamble here 224 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: because you gave me the average per game, which means, okay, 225 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: he could have two games an average over four and 226 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 1: a half and I'm there so and I know you're 227 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 1: gonna grade me on this later lives hanging. The balance 228 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: of me getting these things right is over under segments. 229 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:02,840 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go over. No, I'm gonna grad Jo 230 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 1: on the next segment, and you'll see where we're going 231 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:09,839 Speaker 1: with that. He's had just in his career, he's had 232 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: eighty three receptions in twenty three games, so he's it's 233 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 1: a that's a little bit under. That's three point six. However, 234 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: as a rookie, he had four point seven receptions per game. 235 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: Last year he was four point one. Wait a second, 236 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 1: I don't know how that can be. Had forty targets, 237 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 1: he had thirty three receptions, so he's four point one. 238 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 1: So twenty nineteen is kind of the outlier. He was 239 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 1: kind of all over the place, but mainly he was 240 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: in a doghouse, so hard to say no. That's that's 241 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: a different deal here. Now he's working with Robert Prance, 242 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 1: Tim Kelly, knows who he is, knows what he can do. Uh. Look, 243 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: it either goes really well or you know, pretty darn well, 244 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: or doesn't go at all for him. I believe that 245 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: there's very little middle ground here because there are only 246 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 1: so many spots. Right, you do have a lot of 247 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 1: talented players. So if he makes this roster and they 248 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 1: like him, I believe he's a big part of it. Yes, agreed, Agreed. 249 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: I think that number is over four and a half 250 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,679 Speaker 1: or zero in that if he makes the team, he's 251 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: gonna get well. I think it's that he's going to 252 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 1: make If he makes the team, he's gonna be a 253 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: big factor, or they're gonna be too many bodies that 254 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: they've brought there, and maybe he's bang up a train camp. 255 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: He just can't get the momentum and then he's not 256 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 1: gonna I think it's one or the other. I don't 257 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: think it's I think he's a big factor if he's there, 258 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 1: or he's not there because they've moved on looking at 259 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 1: some of the other guys that have in that in 260 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: that stable, he's gonna have to be a good route runner, 261 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 1: a really good route runner. Because one thing about Taylor, 262 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 1: if it's Taylor, he's a precise kind of quarterback. You 263 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 1: know a lot of designed let's move the pocket, a 264 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: lot of design stuff like that. QTE can get open. 265 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 1: But you know Taylor is not going to go off 266 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 1: script as much as some other people will. You know, 267 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: he the ball is out fast and it's gonna go 268 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: to where the guy I is supposed to be right 269 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: and so he better be where he's supposed to be. 270 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 1: So he knows that they've been working on it. Let's 271 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: see what the results are, Okay. I after our discussion 272 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 1: last night with the general about defensive line, I got 273 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: me thinking, you know what they got me thinking about 274 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: defensive line? I was like, well, why don't I start 275 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: working on a series of positional breakdowns leading up the 276 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 1: training camp? And so I was like, all right, I'll 277 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: start the defensive line. So how it players acquired to 278 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: kind of try to put it together and make an 279 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 1: article out of it and make a series out of it. 280 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: So because I was going through there, something stood out 281 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 1: to me. I was like, man, because I had a 282 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 1: little column or a little note, a little blurb about 283 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: each guy's stats from last year. You realize that of 284 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: the players on this roster right now, the most sacks 285 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 1: buy an individual was four and a half for DeMarcus 286 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 1: Walker with the Broncos last year. Four and a half. 287 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 1: Sixty seven players in the NFL had more than that 288 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: last year, which leads me to this. Now, it's Lobby 289 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: Smith's difference scheme. They're all different. Everything's different right over under, 290 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 1: not telling you who it's going to be, but the 291 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 1: leading sacker on the team, his total will be seven 292 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: and a half. Are you going over? Are you going under? 293 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: I like somebody to do that. I like somebody to 294 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: get over seven. I like a Whitney or Jacob Martin 295 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 1: or some as a Shack Lawson or some X factor 296 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 1: player to get more than that. Somehow, somebody, somebody gets 297 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: three in a game and then they trickle their way 298 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: to eight, nine, ten, whatever. I look. My hope for 299 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: this team. It's too much to say we're gonna have 300 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 1: two guys, gonna have twelve or above, and then yeah, 301 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 1: go crazy after the quarterback. Look, you can't be predicting 302 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: that with this roster. You know, I'd love to see it, 303 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 1: but you can't be predicting. Now. What you can hope 304 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 1: for here is that it's an ensemble like the Panthers 305 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, where they leave the league 306 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: in sacks and nobody had more than nine or something. 307 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 1: That's what I'm hoping for that it's look the upside here. 308 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 1: The not best case scenario, but a good case scenario 309 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: would be that this is kind of the no name defense, right. 310 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 1: This is a defense without a lot of fanfare, but 311 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 1: they get it done as a group. And I think 312 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: they have a lot of players that can make that 313 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 1: kind of thing happen. When you look at their linebackers. 314 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 1: You know, Zach obviously pro bowler, but when you look 315 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 1: at their linebackers, when you look at the thickness on 316 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:41,919 Speaker 1: the d line, when you look at some of the 317 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 1: things that they have going on in the secondary that 318 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 1: need to break right, I know it. I just think 319 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: that they'll find a way as long as those things 320 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: do break right for them to make some stops here. 321 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:53,679 Speaker 1: And I think if they get pressure, it's gonna be 322 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 1: that way. It's gonna be an ensemble thing. It's gonna 323 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: be from different directions and Love He's got to know 324 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:00,639 Speaker 1: that he's looking at this roster. He's like, yeah, we 325 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 1: don't have what here. You know, we don't have Aaron 326 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 1: Donald either. I just noticed that we don't have guys 327 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:09,199 Speaker 1: of that nature. So let's just see what we can 328 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 1: get out of these guys and scheme the right way. 329 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 1: He's seen it all, so I'm hoping that could be 330 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 1: the case. Yeah, I'm with you on that. I when 331 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 1: I put that number down, I was like, I wrote 332 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 1: it down, and then when I was going back through it, 333 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 1: I went, you know, I think that number is low. 334 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: I do think they'll have a guy maybe two that 335 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 1: kind of flirt with that number again in that in 336 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: that in that range, and hopefully there will be, like 337 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 1: you said, come an ensemble sort of thing, sort of like, um, 338 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 1: you know what was that? Who were they celebrating? Were 339 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 1: they celebrating Eric Clapton? Know, their celebrating George Harrison And 340 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: it was like Prince and Tom Petty and all these 341 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,640 Speaker 1: guitar great guitars were up on stage. I was like, Yeah, 342 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: that's what we need from the sackers this year, Like 343 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 1: seven seven and a half, nine six and a half. 344 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 1: That happens. That don't make me feel pretty good? Okay again, 345 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 1: same thing not telling you were asking you who the 346 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 1: player will be, but the leading rusher on the ground 347 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 1: for the Texans in twenty twenty one, the over under 348 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:16,239 Speaker 1: is right at a thousand yards. Will the Texans have 349 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 1: a thousand yard rusher? Essentially, yes or no? Over a thousand, 350 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: under a thousand, I'm going under. I'm going under all 351 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: right now, I know you have seventeen games, so that 352 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,959 Speaker 1: does help. That does help. I think there are too 353 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: many backs. And here's another situation where I think it 354 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 1: can go well and you don't have a thousand yard rusher. 355 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 1: I think it's again a collective group thing as far 356 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:44,920 Speaker 1: as gobbling up yards on the ground when we haven't 357 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 1: really seen Ingram yet, right, Philip Lindsay, I believe is 358 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 1: a very good back when healthy. If he's healthy, he's good. 359 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 1: If he's healthy, he's productive. Period. Can he stay healthy? 360 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 1: That's going to be an issue. They have a bunch 361 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: of guys like that, don't they. I mean when you 362 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 1: look at you know, look at a guy like Lane 363 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: Taylor slowed down by injuries in recent years and things 364 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 1: like that. So okay, I just think that when you 365 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 1: have burkehead, he could flash in spots. Lindsay does he 366 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 1: stay healthy for the campaign ingram like I said, and 367 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 1: then David Johnson. I really believe David Johnson's gonna have 368 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: a very solid year because they found out a way 369 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 1: to use them in the last three games last year. 370 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:24,920 Speaker 1: We've talked about this, Johnny, but I still think they're 371 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 1: gonna put other guys in there and keep keep the 372 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 1: train rolling. And they will not have a thousand yard 373 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 1: rusher this year. Doesn't mean they can't be a good 374 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 1: running team. You know, if it's Taylor, Taylor's gonna run 375 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 1: for some yards too, right, You're gonna have that. So 376 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 1: I just believe that it's not gonna be a one 377 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 1: guy kind of thing. Last year, the Texans ran for 378 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 1: ninety one yards per game. Are you pretty confident saying 379 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 1: that they will go over that number? Yes? Yes, Look, Johnny, 380 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 1: if they don't go over that number, they're in big trouble. 381 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,439 Speaker 1: If they can't get a buck, ten buck, twenty on 382 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 1: the ground minimal, they are in big trouble to show 383 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 1: because look, they led the league in passing last year. 384 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 1: But even doing that, doesn't you know, look leading the 385 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 1: league in passing, high passing yard totals there, it's nice 386 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: on the stat sheet. But if you're not winning, a 387 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 1: lot of it is because you're behind. You have to 388 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,439 Speaker 1: We all know the story. They had some brilliant passing 389 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: plays last year, we all saw it together, but they 390 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 1: were down, sometimes down two touchdowns. You come back, you'll 391 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 1: lose by one score, but you had a backdoor lose 392 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 1: by one score situation looks prettier on the scoreboard that way. 393 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: They got to run the football. They know it, we 394 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 1: know it, everybody knows that they've been working on it. 395 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: Let's see if they can do it. I think one 396 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 1: of the craziest stats that I found was the delta 397 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: between what teams ran against us and what we ran 398 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 1: for Oh, it's it was like sixty eight yards per 399 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 1: game difference. I mean, that's just that's horrible. It's it's 400 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 1: mind blowing mind those mind blowing big yards. Those are 401 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: big yards to you. And look, you don't have to 402 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 1: be number one in the league running or against the run, 403 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: but you gotta look last year's team. You just give 404 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 1: them a middle of the pack running attack and the 405 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: middle of the pack run stoppage stat Yeah, you will 406 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 1: have a playoff team. Last year, no question, no question. 407 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: They were hemorrhaging yards on the ground defensively and offensively. 408 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: They couldn't get it done at all. They were a nimick. 409 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 1: If you're middle of the pack in both of those, 410 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,199 Speaker 1: with the passing kind of progress you had, you know 411 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,640 Speaker 1: we'd be talking about a very different situation right here, 412 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,239 Speaker 1: right staff wise and everything else. So look, we know 413 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,120 Speaker 1: what it is, we know what they need to do. 414 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: Now they got to go out and get it done, 415 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 1: no doubt. Okay, I asked you earlier if you knew 416 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 1: who Zeala avant Garde was. She's a hooper. She can 417 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 1: play ball, she also can spell. She is the National 418 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,400 Speaker 1: Spelling b champion.

He got 456 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 1: all in the quarterbacks face. Last year, Texans spelling b 457 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 1: spell omna. Who I'm gonna say? Oh m e n 458 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:51,360 Speaker 1: I hu yes I okay, two two for two. That's 459 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 1: not bad. I got two in the bank already, so 460 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm not gonna get shut out here. 461 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: But your dog is your dog cannot spell as well 462 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 1: as I can. And by the way, when I first 463 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 1: saw Charles's name, I was like Amena, Hugh, Amena. You know, 464 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:10,679 Speaker 1: I needed that pronunciation guide because I thought this is uh, 465 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: you know, when I got to get right. And you 466 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,440 Speaker 1: can never look at a name and assume you know 467 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 1: how to spell it or pronounce it. Rather and you 468 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: also can never trust a coach to tell you how 469 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: to pronounce a name. That is a fact. Forget that. 470 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:27,400 Speaker 1: Forget that. I mean, I've I've heard every single Texans coach, 471 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 1: but I didn't hear Dom Kapers but Gary Bill. Forget it, 472 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 1: like there's no way. They always wait a second, is 473 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 1: that how you say that? I didn't know, it's not. 474 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 1: That's not how you say that name. And they say 475 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: it with such confidence as if that's the way to 476 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: pronounce it. Trust me, they don't know. You can't trust them. 477 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 1: All right, you handled you handled the men who varied 478 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: very well. And by the way, when you get ready 479 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: for a game, yeah, because I do this when do 480 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 1: my college games. For the most part, if there is 481 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: do you write down how it expelled or how phonetically? Well, 482 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 1: I always have their roster in front of me. I 483 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 1: don't do a chart, as you know, so, but I 484 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: will write down the fonetical pronunciation. And you know, I 485 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 1: always look at the pronunciation Guide And a lot of 486 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: people don't know how to really write things down phonetically, right, 487 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 1: They don't know how to simplify it to its basic 488 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: core pronunciation components. Yes, but go on, agreed, absolutely agree. Okay, 489 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 1: this one's pretty simple. Okay, you saw this one for 490 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 1: a number of years. He started here in Houston in 491 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 1: twenty eleven when he was a big free agent signing 492 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,879 Speaker 1: for the Texans. We'll go down arguably as one of 493 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: the best defensive players of Texans have ever had. I 494 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: want you to spell former Pro Bowl corner who just retired, 495 00:27:51,080 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 1: Jonathan Joseph. It's j O h n t Hey. Yeah, right, 496 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 1: he's got the Jonathan, the long John and Jonathan I believe. 497 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 1: Is that or he doesn't. It's one of the other. Well, 498 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,359 Speaker 1: which is and I can't remember which one it is. 499 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say he has the agent there he does, 500 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 1: except he also has an a in there too, John 501 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:26,679 Speaker 1: John Authin. It's not Jonathan. But wait wait, who? Um? 502 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 1: Who who did we have? Jonathan didn't? Wasn't there a 503 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: John we did? Like that is because there was. We 504 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: had like three different Jonathan's and they were all spelled differently. Jonathan. Yeah, 505 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 1: but if you got there's Jonathan and John Authon. I mean, 506 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 1: you know, I get credit for this one. That one. Okay, 507 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 1: I'll give you that one, all right. You can make 508 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: this a lot harder, but don't starting to all right 509 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 1: Xans this offseason. He was actually one of the first 510 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 1: free agent signings. He's Hawaiian, he once kicked off in 511 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 1: a game, and he's a linebacker. Texans spelling the inaugural 512 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 1: version Mark vander Meer spell Camu, Grugier Hill you were 513 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: done apostrophee Mu. Well, I'll give you kmu no postree, 514 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: no no apostreas in any of these. So to worry 515 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 1: about that there's a Grugier is g r u g 516 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 1: I e r yes, bang and Hill hl very good. 517 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 1: All right, you keep talking about failing and you're just 518 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 1: crushing these. Okay, this one's easy, though, This one's easy. 519 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 1: It just ended up on my list because it gives 520 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 1: us an opportunity to talk about a rookie. Okay, Texans 521 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 1: in the fifth round, moved around, traded round, and they 522 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:14,479 Speaker 1: ended up I think it was the first defensive player 523 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,480 Speaker 1: they drafted, because they only drafted two. One was Roy Lopez, 524 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 1: too easy, second one pretty easy to spell. Former TCU 525 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 1: all big twelve linebacker and Texans rookie Garrett Wallow. Oh 526 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 1: oh boy. There's a trick to this, and I forget 527 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 1: what it is. I'm gonna say it's because he's got 528 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: one R G A R ET is that it? And 529 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 1: it's two rs but one T G A R R 530 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 1: E T and then wallow w A L l O 531 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: w oh. Is that what it was? Yes? Because I'm easy, 532 00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: I'll be honest. I have never seen I've never seen 533 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: Garrett with one It's it's sometimes one R, sometimes two rs. 534 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: I've never seen it with right, that's not fighting it, 535 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 1: Daniel Right. It looked strange with one T, and that's 536 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 1: that's what was sticking out to me. There was one 537 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,320 Speaker 1: of something that should be two or something, so I 538 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: thought it was the R. But it's really the T 539 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 1: all right. By the way, when I write articles on 540 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: these guys, I just write them and then I just 541 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: spell check them later and that's how I roll. Okay, 542 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 1: all right, okay, this one's easy. This one's very very easy. Okay. 543 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 1: Signed last year with the Texans. Came in, did a 544 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 1: really nice job coming off a really really difficult injury 545 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 1: from when he was in college. His last name is 546 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 1: where I went to school, Brown. His first name is Pharaoh. 547 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 1: Spell Pharaoh Brown's first name. It's strange because it's like Farah, 548 00:31:53,000 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 1: it's pH A R A oh h yes, ding ding 549 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 1: ding ding ding Sarah oh or something. Yeah, that's it. 550 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 1: I have written that wrong every single time I've written 551 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: it because I put or the O in the A. Sorry, 552 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 1: I switched those two all the time. I get the PHA, 553 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 1: but then I go R O A for some reason. 554 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 1: I can never I always screw that up. And it 555 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: wasn't until I did this where I was like, okay, 556 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: A R A, Now I've got it forever and I 557 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 1: won't forget it. But that was thrown me off. Do 558 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 1: you know what I think is happening in society now? 559 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 1: People don't care how to spell names anymore because everything's 560 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 1: so digital. You don't you and I grew up in 561 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 1: a world, at least I did, where you're always spelling 562 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 1: your name on the phone for people, and it's like 563 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 1: van d That's why I do Vandermer is one word 564 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: instead of the spaces the way it's properly done in 565 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 1: the Netherlands, and it's it's actually lowercase va N space 566 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 1: lowercase d e R space capital m e er. There's 567 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: no way I'm gonna do that on the phone every 568 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 1: time I'm to spell my name. Now, No, you have 569 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: to understand. It was a space there, like, come on, really, 570 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 1: so I just made it all one word American capital V. 571 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 1: Let's roll right.

But it is what it is, and I 574 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: think today it doesn't matter. You can spell your first name, 575 00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: last name however you want, because you're most it's paste 576 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 1: and cut or cut and paste or it's uh, you know, 577 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: you just transfer it digitally, however you do it well. 578 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 1: My brother in law spells it with it okay, m 579 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 1: A r K. But every time I go to text him, 580 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 1: I guess because I've texted you so much, it changes 581 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 1: it to a C.

At least 655 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:33,719 Speaker 1: I think it's a big one, but it's not surprising. 656 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:39,919 Speaker 1: Number one is Larry Fitzgerald. Texans have seen him. Man, 657 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:42,440 Speaker 1: how many times? I know we saw him in twenty seventeen, 658 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 1: twenty thirteen, two thousand and nine, and it would have 659 00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:49,640 Speaker 1: been two thousand and five before that. He's not decided 660 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 1: about twenty twenty one, because Texas do play the Cardinals 661 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 1: in Glendale in October. October twenty fourth, I believe it 662 00:38:56,880 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 1: is he has not sided and I quote, I haven't 663 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 1: decided anything now as part owner of the Suns, he's 664 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 1: watching his team go through the NBA Finals right now. 665 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 1: My guess is when you're saying I have decided anything, 666 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: I think you have decided. But we'll find out for sure. 667 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:26,840 Speaker 1: He told ESPN. I haven't decided anything. Training camp starts 668 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:28,960 Speaker 1: in a few weeks. I'm excited. It's gonna be another 669 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 1: great year for the NFL. That's to tickle Larry Fitzgerald answer. 670 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 1: He's thirty seven years old. He feels and looks like 671 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 1: he can just continue playing for the next five years. 672 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,960 Speaker 1: We'll see what happens with Larry Fitzgerald, whether we actually 673 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:43,040 Speaker 1: see him or not. I love watching the guy plays. 674 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 1: He's been one of my favorite college football players. Back 675 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 1: when he's at Pitt hit a tremendous game that really 676 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 1: got him on the map in two thousand and three 677 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,680 Speaker 1: against Texas A and M. And he's been all that 678 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 1: and then some. Once he got to the NFL New 679 00:39:56,760 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 1: England Patriots, the fong, Gilmore had all a conversation with 680 00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:06,799 Speaker 1: Josina Anderson, saying he wanted a pay bump in line 681 00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:08,959 Speaker 1: with the rest of the top five corners of the game. 682 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:13,319 Speaker 1: Said Gilmore, and I quote, I just want what I'm worth. 683 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:15,840 Speaker 1: However that plays out, every player should be paid with 684 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:19,359 Speaker 1: they're worth. That's just how it is. Thirty year old, 685 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:21,839 Speaker 1: one of the best in the league, and he's right. 686 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:26,839 Speaker 1: Everybody should be should be paid what they're worth. I mean, 687 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:28,719 Speaker 1: I don't think he said anything out of line. I 688 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 1: don't think he put the Patriots on blast or anything 689 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:36,920 Speaker 1: like that. I think he's dead on. Everybody should be 690 00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:41,239 Speaker 1: paid with they're worth. He is worth a lot, and 691 00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:44,879 Speaker 1: by a lot, I mean a lot. He gives that 692 00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:48,319 Speaker 1: defense a chance because he can lock down one side 693 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 1: of the field and then again Jasey Jackson can lock 694 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:52,600 Speaker 1: down the other side of the field, and Jonathan Jones 695 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:54,279 Speaker 1: can lock down the inside. They can do a lot 696 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,320 Speaker 1: of different things for those guys. But Gilmore is a 697 00:40:56,360 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 1: straw that stirs that drink. And finally, Kansas City Chiefs 698 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 1: Defensive and Frank Clark has been charged with felony possession 699 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:15,320 Speaker 1: of an assault weapon after cops said they found in 700 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 1: Uzi in his Lambo Lamborghini Suv. Lambo's got it, Lamborghini's 701 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: got suv. Good grief in his Lamborghini Suv during his 702 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:30,440 Speaker 1: June twentieth arrest. This is from TMZ, and I will 703 00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:35,320 Speaker 1: say this. Say what you about TMZ. They're right almost 704 00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:41,120 Speaker 1: all the time. Here's the kicker, the Chiefs star faces 705 00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:44,959 Speaker 1: up to three years in prison. Now, A few things. 706 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:48,080 Speaker 1: Number One, I don't understand the assault weapon thing. I 707 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 1: just don't get it. I've never been a gun guy. 708 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:52,960 Speaker 1: And I'm sure there are some of you out there saying, 709 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 1: oh but John, if you like I don't, I'll never 710 00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:59,879 Speaker 1: get it. I'll never understand it. I mean, you're one one, 711 00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:03,760 Speaker 1: you know, greasy hand drop away from that thing, going 712 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 1: off and doing god knows what harm. I don't know. 713 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 1: I don't say I don't know these things, but I 714 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:11,799 Speaker 1: do know what's Illegals all get out to have one. 715 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:15,800 Speaker 1: He gets arrested and now he's facing up to three 716 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 1: years in prison. This guy had all kinds of issues. 717 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,840 Speaker 1: Not even if this caliber even worse with some issues 718 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 1: back coming out of Michigan is one of the reasons 719 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 1: he fell in the draft. He's uber talented, but he's 720 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 1: an incredibly, an incredible nightmare off the field. The chief 721 00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:38,400 Speaker 1: shouldn't have to deal with this nonsense. They really shouldn't 722 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:40,720 Speaker 1: have to deal with it, but now they are. Frank 723 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:46,080 Speaker 1: Clark could be looking at prison time for having an 724 00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:54,680 Speaker 1: assault weapon in his Lambeau suv. Awful, awful, awful, awful stuff, 725 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:58,319 Speaker 1: yet not surprising all right, Big thanks to Mark, to 726 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 1: all of you for listening.
