Greg. This 50 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,519 Speaker 1: is like I mean, we just built a brand new 51 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: facility here, like you could play games here now stands 52 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: and it's all covered up and you got the concession area. 53 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 1: It's beautiful. Yeah. Well, you know we've first of all, 54 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:50,799 Speaker 1: it's just great to be back at training camp, have 55 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: fans out here and have have people to kind of 56 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 1: come in and see this new team. And so, you know, 57 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 1: as we're looking at everything coming out of COVID and 58 00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 1: different things that we can look at, We've always looked 59 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: at training camps, so what could we do different, what 60 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: can we do better? We've our fans have always been great, 61 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: but you know, we wanted to make sure every seat 62 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: that was out here was fully covered and shaded, even 63 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: the standing room only, and then we wanted to to 64 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 1: add more seating for our season ticket members and fans. 65 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 1: So we've almost doubled the seating capacity out here so 66 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 1: that more people can come. And then we've elevated some 67 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: of the some of our you know, corporate partner tents 68 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: and friends and family tents, just to really just trying 69 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 1: to look at things on a daily basis, one step 70 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 1: at a time. What can we do to make it 71 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 1: better and create more value? Wait, wait, admit it is 72 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: Texans Radio the inspiration for elevating certain elements of this stuff. Yes, 73 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: say yes, Mark, Mark is you know Mark always wants 74 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: credit for everything. But now last year during COVID, yes, 75 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: you did have an elevated tent which we could we 76 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: couldn't be over here sidelines wise, and so uh we'll 77 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: just say maybe how about that. I know he wants credit, 78 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: but it actually started where at the green it did. Yes, 79 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: that's a fair point, de Greybrier. We had some elevated 80 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: tents and some shades, So maybe there's a little bit 81 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: of inspiration, but we'll give Mark just a little bit 82 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: of just because I'm not sure he'll be able to 83 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: survive the day without all.

We're really excited about that, 170 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 1: and so, you know, just excited to get college football 171 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: going and getting you know that that back as well. 172 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: We had a great matchup last year that we weren't 173 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: able to fulfill. So excited about this when we also 174 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: have the National Battle of the Bands. Yeah here, which 175 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: if you haven't been to that event, I tell you 176 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: it is. It is. The energy and excitement of of 177 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 1: of seeing all those bands compete in is like none other. 178 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: It's blood sport. I mean there should be a reality 179 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: Well there are reality shows about the sort of thing. 180 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: This is really cool stuff. Wait, is David Fletcher okay 181 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: with what's going on with the Big twelve right now? 182 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: I mean, is does he need medical attention? Is he excited? 183 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: How does the affect the Texas Bowl down a lot? Yeah, 184 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: you didn't have to ask Fletch, but I think he's 185 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 1: probably why he's he's got a front row seat. He's 186 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 1: digging for information. You know, he he'll be right in 187 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: the middle of it, whatever it is. I can promise 188 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: you that, Greg. Every year there's always an event. What's 189 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: new and NRG Stadium in twenty twenty one. I don't 190 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: know why I got chosen to do the food event, 191 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: Maybe they were trying to tell me something, but I 192 00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 1: did a little did a little food video with the 193 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: coordinators and coach Culley. What is new and Energy Stadium? 194 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: What are some of the key things that fans can 195 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: be looking forward to UH in twenty twenty one. I 196 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: know some of them have been not in a building 197 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,719 Speaker 1: for two years, so maybe everything is new to them. 198 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,079 Speaker 1: But what are some of the key things that are 199 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: new to Energy Stadium and to the game experience this year? Well, 200 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 1: you know, the food will be back, let's just start 201 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,559 Speaker 1: with that. We always want to be you know, the culinary, 202 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 1: you know, experience of the South and and and and 203 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 1: just so, we've got Killings and Chris Shephard hugo Ortega 204 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 1: is gonna step up his game big time this year. 205 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 1: So we're doing a bunch of new things in that area. 206 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 1: But probably what I'm most excited about it probably two things. 207 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 1: One U is we have a brand new bull Tunnel 208 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: player intro tunnel. That is U our team that you 209 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: guys know so well, has worked so hard almost over 210 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,439 Speaker 1: three years to pull this off and to get ready, 211 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: and it is going to be spectacular as you as 212 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: team intros and um, I think it's almost double in 213 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: size of our other prior bowl tunnel and it's gonna 214 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 1: it's got it does a lot of cool things, and 215 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: I think just enhancing our team intro experience. And then 216 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: the second thing is we're gonna we're inserting kind of 217 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,959 Speaker 1: an in stadium DJ and and kind of somebody who 218 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: can really help us drive the music in the atmosphere, 219 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 1: stay in kind of with our same themes of music, 220 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: but just somebody who can kind of control that. And 221 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be a great in addition 222 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 1: to what we're doing. Yeah, nobody asked me about that, 223 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: because it would have been like all Zeppelin, Yeah, all 224 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 1: of Stones, and it just would have been There'll still 225 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 1: be plenty of you know, classic rock and country, but 226 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: it just may be coming from a different perspective. So 227 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: Deep would be a better candidate for the musical selection. 228 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: Perhaps every business, every individual in the world really learned 229 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: something during the pandemic, which is obviously still going on 230 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: in different ways. But What can you tell us about 231 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,839 Speaker 1: what you learned stadium wise or organizationally during the pandemic 232 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,679 Speaker 1: that could help the Texans moving forward, just the way 233 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: you operate with the fans, the season ticket members, the 234 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: corporate partners, everybody. Yeah, so, um, probably stadium wise, one 235 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 1: of the biggest changes that we learned is, you know, 236 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: just the adaptation of technology. So we will be fully 237 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 1: mobile ticketing this year. You know all all this. We 238 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,599 Speaker 1: did it last year, but obviously it was a limited capacity, 239 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 1: so we're switching to that full time. Everybody has embraced 240 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 1: mobile technology through the pandemic and whether you're ordering food 241 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 1: or whatever it may be, and so we will be 242 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: in that space. Well, we're actually inside of our app. 243 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 1: You'll be able to order food to your seat this 244 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: year through through our our Texans Mobile Express. So a 245 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: lot of technology driven things in that regard um, cashless 246 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: payments in the stadium, there's enhanced of that that we're 247 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: really going down that. And then from an organization standpoint, 248 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,840 Speaker 1: it's just like everybody else. I mean, we just embraced 249 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: technology in different ways and the way we communicate, in 250 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: the way that we're able to use the Zoom and 251 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,559 Speaker 1: Microsoft teams and all those types of things to be 252 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: as efficient as possible. All right, would you like better 253 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: teams or zoom vote? I think you know where I 254 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: am on that. I'm a Microsoft Teams guy. I'm a 255 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 1: big fan, so I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm 256 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 1: not sure you are as much. I'm always afraid I'm 257 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: uploading a document to the entire organization. It feels like 258 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 1: you're hitting reply all every time you send something on teams, 259 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: but you're really not get used to it. Yeah, can 260 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 1: you deliver down to the sideline? That's all I need 261 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,200 Speaker 1: to know. Nope, Nope, nope. Eventually we'll get you a 262 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 1: hot dog down there. All right, That's that's all I'm 263 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 1: looking for. That's all. That's all that I'm looking for. 264 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 1: Great last one for me. I don't want to say 265 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 1: you're you're new, but you're a new role. David Cully 266 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: is new, Nick Kissario is new. How's that transition been 267 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 1: amongst I guess when people will say the hierarchy, those 268 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: you three key decision makers, how's that kind of transition 269 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 1: been for all three of you guys together the last 270 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 1: six seven months? It's been great? And I you know, 271 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: I would start with Cow. Cow has been great, supporting 272 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 1: all of us and making sure we have all the 273 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 1: resources that we need to do our jobs and providing 274 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: the direction of kind of where we're wanting to go. 275 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it is a time to transition, but that's 276 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: that creates great opportunity, great ways to look at things 277 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 1: differently and to evolve and to to really you know, 278 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: think about how we want to operate moving forward in 279 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: a lot of new in a different exciting ways. And 280 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: so the communication has been great, the support has been great. 281 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: You know, Coach Cully and the way he can indicates 282 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: to our fans and is fantastic.

He's, yeah, I mean 291 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 1: you're never going to be a more energetic, a more 292 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 1: positive consistent person.

I say it 303 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: felt cooler. What when I know? Not to compare this, 304 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I walked across going it's not 305 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: that bad. Yeah, really there's a cloud and now at 306 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,839 Speaker 1: the class to general and it's just worth John. Is 307 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: it any better today? Oh? Absolutely? The highs only ninety. 308 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, it's supposed to rain all day. Can 309 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: you get my coat? Can you get the next three days? 310 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: It's supposed to be eighty eight and eighty nine? Saw 311 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 1: the weather. A cool front is coming in, thinking what 312 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: kind of bs is there? It's a less hot, yes, 313 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 1: but being a sailor, I could tell you if you 314 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: see winds coming out of the northeast or northwest, that's 315 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: a good thing. Okay, anytime a year that's gonna make 316 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 1: it cooler. Obviously in the winter, man, we had a 317 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: lot of northwesterlies in the winter this year, it was awful. 318 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 1: But in the summer you're welcoming that, all right. So general, 319 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: here we are, day five, after a day off. We 320 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: all saw Saturday's practice. Look the defense very well that day. 321 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: No Taylor Mills getting first team reps. It was top 322 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: and they were in the red area, which is always 323 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 1: going to be brutal. So what do you make of it? 324 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: And what do you make of things moving forward? First 325 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: I heard Greg Gris. I'm talking about what a great 326 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 1: guy somebody? Was he talking about me? Yeah? Of course, 327 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 1: of course, of course, really nice guy. I heard him first? 328 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 1: Was the last thing he said. Um, I thought that 329 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: it was a great experience for Davis Mills and Jeff Dresco. 330 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: Wouldn't he good either, But it's hard down there. But 331 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: I thought it was a great learning experience. You know, 332 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 1: you don't always just learn from your success. He got 333 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: to learn from your mistakes and somebody asked me, I mean, 334 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: do you keep counting of interceptions? And I said, I 335 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: ran out of fingers, But I think that's good for him. 336 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 1: David Culley said that's good for him, putting him down 337 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 1: there in the red zone. Justin Reid, I thought, I 338 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: thought last year Justin had a chance to go to 339 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl, but he was inconsistent the season. Yeah, 340 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: and I'm thinking that in its last year of his contract, 341 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: I look for him to have a big season and 342 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: love his defense, be the you know, some guys or 343 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: beneficiaries of this system, and I believe he will lead 344 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: to defense and interceptions. I think he'll lead to defense 345 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: in big balaze, and I think he'll get a big 346 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: new contract. And I think yesterday was just a tip 347 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 1: of the iceberg about what we're gonna see from read 348 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 1: and practice, preseason and regular season. John a guy that's 349 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: seemingly without pads, minds you. But I'm trying to be 350 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 1: fair across the board and watch as many people across 351 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: the board as I can. But just watching some pass 352 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: rustrials and watching Charles a manner who work he looks 353 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: I don't see he looks like a different player, but 354 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: he looks like a player who's been bumped up. He's 355 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 1: like he's hit the turbo or he's been powered up. Hey, 356 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 1: how important is he to that defensive front? And b 357 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: if he does have the year that people think and 358 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: you're talking about contract, he's not going into a contract 359 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: year or he's gonna be going into one of twenty 360 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: twenty two. But could he end up getting a pretty 361 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 1: decent number in a contract if you if you play well, 362 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,680 Speaker 1: you're going to get an extension. I think if if 363 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: Justin reed, you don't want Justin to the season to 364 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 1: be over and him facing free agency. So I think 365 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 1: if he plays well, I could see Nicks Sario signing 366 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: him to an extension during the season. Men and who 367 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,159 Speaker 1: would be a great one to extend after the season 368 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,639 Speaker 1: because if you took the snaps that Charles played and 369 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: he hits he had on the quarterback and you try 370 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 1: to make that over a whole season, there's no tone. 371 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:37,160 Speaker 1: You know, he could be up around eight to ten 372 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: sacks and he's gonna play inside because he's big, too 373 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 1: big to play out two eighty. But I actually think 374 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 1: they'll move him around in that verse until he's what 375 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,400 Speaker 1: they like. I've said before, and I'll say it again, John, 376 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 1: I don't know any there's no defensive lineman who could 377 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: benefit more from the switch to four men front than 378 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: a mena who and Ross Black clocks like right behind him. 379 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 1: I don't have the numbers in front of me, but 380 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,640 Speaker 1: I've been to every camp obviously, and I don't remember 381 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 1: this many batted balls in training camp. Now you can say, oh, 382 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 1: what about the quarterbacks, but listen the way this D 383 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,400 Speaker 1: line is, the size, the height, the way they play 384 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,199 Speaker 1: the four three. I'm thinking that that's gonna be a 385 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 1: thing this year for this defense because people talk about 386 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 1: the picks. Yes, all right, a lot of them are 387 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: batted balls or a few of them are. Anyway, several 388 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 1: throughout the course of this cap so far. I'm just 389 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,959 Speaker 1: thinking that's something to watch this year. Batted balls from 390 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: this D line. The only guy that batted a lot 391 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,120 Speaker 1: of balls, of course, was J. J. Watt. Right now, 392 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,919 Speaker 1: that's one of the things that Lovey Smith emphasizes to 393 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 1: help get the ball out. And we've talked a lot, 394 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,959 Speaker 1: and I know you guys have two about the emphasis 395 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 1: that Lovey Smith puts on forcing turnovers. And he didn't 396 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: have it every year he's in the NFL, but he 397 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 1: most years his defense has had a lot of turnovers. 398 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 1: And this defense covered, of course, coming off from nine 399 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: second few since nineteen eighty in the NFL, and I'll 400 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 1: guarantee you they're gonna be more than nine. And I 401 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 1: think they. I wouldn't surprise me if they're not in 402 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 1: the twenties, especially if teams will have to pass and 403 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 1: can't just try to run the ball in the fourth quarter. 404 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: But set four and I'll say it again, the defensive 405 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 1: line is the biggest mystery on the team, just because 406 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 1: there's so many new ones and nobody from the past 407 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,920 Speaker 1: guaranteed to start, and a guy that they obviously love 408 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 1: because he's in a Milla everything is MALIEK Collins John. 409 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 1: Is there anybody out here in a positive way that 410 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 1: you're like, WHOA, I didn't see that guy coming. That 411 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 1: guy's actually had a pretty good camp as far as 412 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: anybody that's sort of stepped out and surprised you a 413 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: little bit more. I know I got a few, but 414 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: what did you see? Have you seen any of that? 415 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: You're like, you know what, I'm gonna keep an eyeing 416 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 1: that guy, Nico. Oh, I'm sorry, Anthony Miller's receiver. He 417 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: stepped up from the first day like he'd been here 418 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: through the offseason, knows the program. Whatever they're teaching him, 419 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,239 Speaker 1: he took it. He took get to heart and he 420 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 1: came out here and he looked like he'd been with 421 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 1: the organization. Of course, he's another guy playing for a 422 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: new contract the last year. But and then Nico Collins. 423 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 1: I thought Collins would take time to adjust, and he 424 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: still might. But they like him a lot. They throw 425 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 1: him ball a lot, they instruct him a lot. He's 426 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 1: an awesome looking physical specimen. And another one we're gonna 427 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,159 Speaker 1: talk to him today. A guy you guys remember, he 428 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,360 Speaker 1: had a cup of coffee here. Wasn't even wanting him 429 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 1: here long enough to put sugar and milk in it. 430 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 1: And that'd be cornerback Terrence Mitchell. And it shouldn't be 431 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 1: a surprise because he started every game for the Browns 432 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 1: last year and they're run to the playoffs. But you know, 433 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 1: he has really stepped up. He's twenty nine years old, 434 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 1: he's an eight year veteran, and I look for him 435 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 1: to be the starter opposite Bradley Roby and makes some 436 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 1: big plays. He's looked really good. Any guy that steps 437 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 1: up and looks good considers his first year here, tells 438 00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 1: me he's worked really hard mentally. Sugar and milk. I'm 439 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 1: writing this down, General, I'm stealing that line. I love 440 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:05,919 Speaker 1: that line. And a cup of coffee here wasn't long 441 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: enough to put sugar and milk in it. Okay, I'm 442 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 1: gonna give you some hope for the newspaper industry. Vander Kid, too, 443 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 1: eight years old, has discovered the newspaper the comics. He said, Daddy, 444 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 1: they're writing about the Texans in this newspaper thing. He's 445 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 1: eight years old. Now, kids don't understand what a newspaper is. General, 446 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 1: I read your article on Tarrod Taylor yesterday and I thought, obviously, 447 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 1: based on Saturday and many other things, with what's with 448 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: what's going on with number four out here, Tarrod Taylor 449 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: is monumentally important to this football team. I mean every 450 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 1: quarterback is, but his presence here, the leadership ability, the 451 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: ability to hold it down. Look, Mills is going to 452 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: have his growing issues because he's a rookie third round 453 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 1: raft choice, but Taylor is so important and he's the 454 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: right guy for this particular position, as David Culley called him, 455 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 1: the consummate bro. He's called him pros pro. Anybody that 456 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:04,400 Speaker 1: watched the Chargers on Hard Knocks last year's saw him 457 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 1: behind the scenes places we can't seem now, but everybody 458 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 1: respects him, likes him. They talk. They always talk about 459 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 1: his leadership, what he does in the meeting rooms, like 460 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 1: the rooms, on the practice field, in the huddle, outside 461 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 1: the huddle. He knows what it takes to beat to 462 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 1: play the role he plays. That doesn't mean he's gonna 463 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 1: play great or play well, but he's smart, he's experienced. 464 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: I can't imagine when you have a guy like Mills 465 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: just starting in Drisco with his fifteen in six years. 466 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 1: To Rod Taylor was a really wise signing. His familiarity 467 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 1: with pet Hamilton helps tremendously. And you talk about making 468 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 1: a smooth transition, he certainly is. Some guys are struggling, 469 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 1: but not to Rod Taylor would be back at practice today. 470 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: Struggling would be the Indianapolis Cults. General Carson Wentz foot 471 00:22:56,320 --> 00:23:00,119 Speaker 1: issue looks like he's gonna try and power through it. 472 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: We don't know the foot issue. We don't know that, 473 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: but he's had issues with injuries before. He's really had 474 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 1: one good year. NFL general, what do you make of 475 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: what's going on with Indianapolis and Carson Wentz. The Texans 476 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,479 Speaker 1: should hope that he is healthy and he plays the 477 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,919 Speaker 1: full season, because then that means Philadelphia will have a 478 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: third number one pick, and just in case they want 479 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: to trade Watson to the Eagles. They're not going to 480 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 1: get all three in one year, but maybe they get 481 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 1: two with Philadelphia expecting another one, and maybe that's one 482 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 1: of them that they could take in a deal. But 483 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:39,159 Speaker 1: I feel bad for the Cults they've had. Now, is 484 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 1: this four starters in four years or somebody else starts 485 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 1: besides wins Is that four and four or five and four? 486 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: It is going to be four and four anyway because 487 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 1: Winz is new. So now you're having a fifth in 488 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:52,679 Speaker 1: the sense that you weren't planning not starting Wentz. But 489 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: I don't feel bad for the Colts ever. So there's that, like, 490 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: there's no way I'm feeling bad for the Cults.

I mean, 656 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: every now and again you have to just say that. 657 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 1: But yeah, the one thing I asked that general was 658 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 1: about surprises and pleasant surprises, not the negative surprises, because 659 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 1: I really don't want to talk about those, and I 660 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 1: don't know that there have been many of those. I 661 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 1: know a lot was made about Saturday, and you know 662 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 1: Davis and Jeff struggling a little bit. Well, go back 663 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: to something that Bill O'Brien said to us many many 664 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 1: years ago. I think he said it on the air, 665 00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 1: maybe said it off the air too, but he he 666 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 1: was talking about about Tom Brady, and he said Tom 667 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 1: always told him that the red zone was the hardest 668 00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 1: thing to get. And that's what Saturday was. It was 669 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 1: all twenty yards an end, it was all red zone. 670 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 1: It's all goal line. Everything's can dance and if defense 671 00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 1: is playing zone, it's tough because man, you got to 672 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 1: you got to make that decision now. And I've seen 673 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 1: every single quarterback that has come through here in Warren 674 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: Texans Colors, every single one struggle on red zone day. 675 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 1: Struggle on red zone day. It is an incredibly difficult position. 676 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 1: And those two quarterbacks struggled. Yeah, they struggled. It happened 677 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 1: so much quicker, so much faster. The checkdowns are not 678 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:27,560 Speaker 1: as open as you want. If things are clogged up, 679 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 1: you got to make that decision. Now. You're not talked 680 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:31,839 Speaker 1: about that on the field. That's in large part why 681 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 1: Saturday was a struggle. And like I said, every single quarterback, starter, 682 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,719 Speaker 1: back up, a guy that lasted here three days when 683 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:43,760 Speaker 1: they had to do red zone work, it was a struggle. 684 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,400 Speaker 1: I wonder the day when Mahomes through five picks in 685 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 1: practice as a rookie or whatever it was, I wonder 686 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,600 Speaker 1: if that was red area, because that's the info you 687 00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 1: don't always get. Remember Bortles had a practice, well bortless Bortles, 688 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,360 Speaker 1: but where we got reports we're up at the Greenbrier 689 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 1: porters have thrown five picks. I wonder if it was 690 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:00,839 Speaker 1: red area, because you're right, the windows are so tight tight, 691 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 1: ball's batted, somebody picks it off and look, there are 692 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,799 Speaker 1: no excuses here. Mills is a rookie. That was a 693 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 1: great day for him in that he got a taste 694 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 1: of the ones, a big chunk, I mean, a big 695 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,920 Speaker 1: meal with the ones and gets to look at the tape. 696 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,240 Speaker 1: I thought, great day off Sunday, look at the tape, 697 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:22,319 Speaker 1: see what you need to do, learn something, and then 698 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 1: try to do better next time. If Mills was out 699 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 1: here dealing, I would say, oh boy, this defense is 700 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 1: in big trouble. I was. I I might not say 701 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:34,239 Speaker 1: it that loud, but well, I would think that they'd 702 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 1: be in big trouble if Mills was just out here 703 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 1: dealing as a third round raft choice. Mills shows a 704 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 1: lot of promise. But the thing is, I think, Johnny, 705 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 1: this defense, you're not dealing with ten rookies out there. 706 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,880 Speaker 1: These are veteran players. They're not stupid. They've been around 707 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: this league and they've made plays. Look do the research, 708 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: not you, but everybody read our stuff. We'll tell you 709 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 1: they've got players on defense. This defense is gonna better 710 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,320 Speaker 1: than people think. I agree, and I think that's maybe 711 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,719 Speaker 1: the surprise. I say an air quotes, So if you're 712 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 1: in your car looking thinking what my face looks like 713 00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:08,840 Speaker 1: I'm putting the air quotes next to it. It is that. 714 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 1: It's I think the defense overall, the defense has looked 715 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:16,480 Speaker 1: fairly sharp. It's looked pretty I just I kept expecting 716 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 1: there to be, you know, a bust here or a 717 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 1: bust there, you know, or an m a miss assignment, 718 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 1: mental air whatever you're not. You're not seeing those. And 719 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 1: you're seeing guys making some plays on the ball, I 720 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,359 Speaker 1: think to me, and the pads haven't gone on yet, 721 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:35,280 Speaker 1: so I kind of get it. But that said, watching 722 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 1: the defensive line, it's some of the things that those 723 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 1: guys are doing up front. Charles the Manner, who to me, 724 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 1: has been a clear winner thus far in camp. Now, 725 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 1: I just watching him in pass rush drills, seeing him 726 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:49,200 Speaker 1: back down passes in team just seeing a guy up 727 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 1: front making a significant impact. And like the general said, 728 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 1: if you project his numbers over seventeen games, what's he 729 00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 1: gonna be able to do? Because at the end of 730 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 1: seventeen games you look up and go, dang, he had 731 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 1: that many quarterback hits. And even if you do it 732 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,799 Speaker 1: on average, which you probably should do, is over the 733 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 1: years when he's been on the field. I mean, I 734 00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 1: just over the years. I mean, they're just plays I 735 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,919 Speaker 1: can remember of Charles Amena, who over the last couple 736 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 1: of years make him big plays in big games. There 737 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 1: were guys that started and played significant minutes for this 738 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 1: team and significant play counts for this team. Hey, do 739 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:27,720 Speaker 1: you remember a play by this guy? Nope, nope, don't remember, 740 00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,719 Speaker 1: not one. So from that perspective, I think Charles has 741 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:32,760 Speaker 1: really taking step. But I think the whole defensive line, 742 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:35,880 Speaker 1: the last play, the last play of the day, for 743 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 1: some reason, has stood out to me, and I'm trying 744 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:42,280 Speaker 1: to remember one. There was one on Friday, I don't remember, 745 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 1: but on Saturday it stood out to me because I 746 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:48,320 Speaker 1: was standing right in line, I could see the defensive 747 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 1: line and I watched big Roy Roy Lopez. I mean 748 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 1: just like. I mean he darts inside to get the 749 00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:00,400 Speaker 1: guard to kind of set inside, and then in mely 750 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,560 Speaker 1: like and just goes to the goes to the outside. 751 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:05,680 Speaker 1: So he stepped into a gap, went to b gap 752 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:11,439 Speaker 1: and ripped right by the guard. Six. Yeah. I don't, 753 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 1: but I don't care about that mark, I don't. I know, 754 00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:15,919 Speaker 1: I like the low center of gravity and it looks 755 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,400 Speaker 1: like he's got that, and he got a little so quizzit. 756 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 1: Can I use the word twitch with a guy like this? 757 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:24,760 Speaker 1: You can use you want to use the word twitch 758 00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:30,279 Speaker 1: for it's not it's not twitch twitch, it's it's different. Yeah, 759 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 1: it's big man for that big wiggle twitch no wiggles 760 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 1: not good. I don't know. But the nice thing here 761 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:37,880 Speaker 1: at practice is they put up the big video boards 762 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 1: on the end so I can watch a play like 763 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:42,239 Speaker 1: I do in the stadium. I can watch a play 764 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 1: live and then look up at the board and watch 765 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:47,560 Speaker 1: the video. And a nice thing about the video is 766 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,160 Speaker 1: you get both angles, you get the all the all 767 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:51,840 Speaker 1: twenty two I mean, and then you get the end 768 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,839 Speaker 1: zone shot and I just I we're walking off and 769 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:56,239 Speaker 1: you're kind of walking that way, and I kind of 770 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 1: hit you, went, hey, your guy just made a huge play. 771 00:38:58,120 --> 00:38:59,959 Speaker 1: And that was Roy. But it's been like that four 772 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 1: the defensive line throughout. Now when the pads go on, 773 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:07,720 Speaker 1: oh you know, we'll see, we'll see. But right now 774 00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 1: I'm watching some defensive lineman do some good things. Here's 775 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 1: the other thing. On Saturday, I was watching the pass 776 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:15,520 Speaker 1: rush and it was really the kind of the second 777 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,719 Speaker 1: the twos and threes, essentially guys you would think are 778 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 1: twos and threes. That was the offensive linement, and they 779 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:23,399 Speaker 1: ran the full defensive line gamut at them. So the 780 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:27,319 Speaker 1: front guys, the first guys, they kind of first rep, 781 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:31,239 Speaker 1: kind of want it, second and third reps. You could 782 00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 1: see the offensive lineman walk over, get some coaching, make 783 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 1: an adjustment, get back out there, and then fare better. 784 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:41,839 Speaker 1: And I loved, loved, loved seeing that with guys that hey, 785 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 1: I don't I don't know how many of those guys 786 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 1: are gonna make the team, how they're gonna be on 787 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:46,879 Speaker 1: the practice squad, I don't know. But just to see 788 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 1: them take the coaching, go back out there and have 789 00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:52,960 Speaker 1: more success. Oh those pretty interesting. Well, if you're a 790 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 1: coach out here, and I want to ask Nickossario about this, 791 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 1: you know guys that are fringe sort of guys and 792 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 1: I hesitate to use that word with him. You're just 793 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,880 Speaker 1: trying to get them better. See where it goes, right, 794 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:05,800 Speaker 1: You're always going to be teaching.

More than once? I bet because it just 872 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,479 Speaker 1: adds up. For example, there are two, not one. Great 873 00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 1: reasons to fill up with Chevron with Tecron number one 874 00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:48,479 Speaker 1: unbeatable cleaning power and number two or maybe this should 875 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 1: be number one unbeatable mileage. Plus Chevron puts Techron in 876 00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:56,640 Speaker 1: every grade, every gallon of their gasoline. So that's two, no, way, 877 00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,520 Speaker 1: three unbeatable reasons to go with the one and only 878 00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:03,720 Speaker 1: che Ron with Tzechron care for your car.

You know, 894 00:45:57,160 --> 00:46:00,920 Speaker 1: got good start last week, four good days. Players had 895 00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 1: a chance to recover, kind of go through some things 896 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 1: we talked about the team, kind of went through the 897 00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:08,799 Speaker 1: personnel and what the expectation is heading into this week. 898 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:10,640 Speaker 1: So we'll get another day kind of similar to what 899 00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 1: we did last week relative to what we can do 900 00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:14,520 Speaker 1: on a practice field in terms of helmets and that, 901 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:16,840 Speaker 1: and then tomorrow we'll kick into a different gear and 902 00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:18,640 Speaker 1: there'll be a little bit different emphasis. But it's a 903 00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:20,239 Speaker 1: big week for us to try to make improvement as 904 00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:23,640 Speaker 1: a football team. It's a longer camp because usually in 905 00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:26,000 Speaker 1: a non COVID year, you'd start practice two weeks before 906 00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:28,359 Speaker 1: that first preseason game. Now you have the extra three days. 907 00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:31,000 Speaker 1: How does that help? It just gives you more time 908 00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 1: to kind of see what you have as a team 909 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:35,600 Speaker 1: and kind of get your team ready to play again. 910 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:38,399 Speaker 1: It's not necessarily about scheme and kind of getting ready 911 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:40,960 Speaker 1: for an opponent this week. It's really on basic execution 912 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 1: of fundamentals and the installation is going in and by 913 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:48,840 Speaker 1: probably midweek we'll have essentially everything installed. Then we'll have 914 00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:52,160 Speaker 1: to worry about some of the situational elements so again, 915 00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:55,839 Speaker 1: then you kind of transition to sort of game week preparation. 916 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,280 Speaker 1: But it's not as if it will be necessarily game planning. 917 00:46:58,400 --> 00:46:59,920 Speaker 1: There'll be certain things that we're going to want to 918 00:46:59,920 --> 00:47:01,759 Speaker 1: do in the game just to give the players the 919 00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 1: best chance to have some success on the field. Nick, 920 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:06,360 Speaker 1: I would imagine over the last how many every years 921 00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:09,640 Speaker 1: you thought about being a general manager and what that 922 00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 1: would be like. You've now done it for six months. 923 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,480 Speaker 1: Has there been anything that's been surprising to you that 924 00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:16,640 Speaker 1: you were like, Man, I didn't see that one coming 925 00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:20,560 Speaker 1: in this situation. As you've taken over anything, training camp, 926 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:23,480 Speaker 1: anything before, there's been any surprises or were you fairly 927 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:25,239 Speaker 1: prepared for what you were going to see when you 928 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:27,160 Speaker 1: got here. It's a great question. I think what you 929 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:29,520 Speaker 1: have to do is, over the course of your time, 930 00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:31,799 Speaker 1: however long you've been in the league, whatever your level 931 00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 1: of experience is, just try to take some of the 932 00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:36,759 Speaker 1: things that are core and that you've learned that are 933 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:39,480 Speaker 1: sort of foundational, and try to implement those and understand 934 00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:41,760 Speaker 1: that every situation, every team is going to be different. 935 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 1: So again, there's things that are going to pop up 936 00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:47,600 Speaker 1: that necessarily you haven't prepared for. Or thought about. I 937 00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:50,560 Speaker 1: think it's how you respond to those situations and the 938 00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:52,799 Speaker 1: quickness with which you do it and then be able 939 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:55,359 Speaker 1: to make the decision to move forward. So I'd say again, 940 00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:58,279 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say necessarily anything surprising John. It's just day 941 00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:00,600 Speaker 1: to day. Maybe there's some different things that you just 942 00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:03,120 Speaker 1: have to deal with specific to your team that maybe 943 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:06,240 Speaker 1: you hadn't anticipated. Nick as Sarrio joining us. Tarrod Taylor 944 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:09,120 Speaker 1: had the excused absence on Saturday. What's the situation with 945 00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:12,439 Speaker 1: him and is there an update on the Deshaun Watson situation. Yeah, 946 00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 1: Tyrod's back here. He'll practice today. No real update or 947 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:20,239 Speaker 1: change on Deshaun situation. He was here last week. I 948 00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:22,560 Speaker 1: would say he was. He was fairly active, He was 949 00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:25,880 Speaker 1: in the meetings, recepted for the information, interacted with his teammates. 950 00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:27,400 Speaker 1: So again, we'll take it one day at time, like 951 00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:29,560 Speaker 1: we like we've been doing. Nick. In a situation where 952 00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:32,400 Speaker 1: you have so many new players, how important is it 953 00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:35,120 Speaker 1: to have a guy like Tarrod who's say, been there, 954 00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:39,200 Speaker 1: done that, But a guy that's very calm, seemingly poised, 955 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:41,400 Speaker 1: doesn't look like he gets rattle. How important is it 956 00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:43,439 Speaker 1: to have a guy like that with so much new 957 00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:45,160 Speaker 1: going around. Yeah, that's a good question. I think the 958 00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:47,120 Speaker 1: overall composition of the team, we have a lot of 959 00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:50,080 Speaker 1: players that have experience, and again I think one thing 960 00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:52,359 Speaker 1: you have to do is just go out there and 961 00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:55,680 Speaker 1: perform your job and execute your responsibility and how you 962 00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 1: do your job is really more important than anything else. 963 00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:00,359 Speaker 1: So again, we talked about this this morning. I thought 964 00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:02,520 Speaker 1: David had a great quote, and it's you know, well done. 965 00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:04,719 Speaker 1: It is better than well said. So it's about you 966 00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 1: know what you do on the field, and then when 967 00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:09,640 Speaker 1: you have confidence, when you do the right thing and 968 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:11,160 Speaker 1: the guy next to you sees that you're going to 969 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:13,320 Speaker 1: do the right thing, then you in turn have confidence 970 00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:15,920 Speaker 1: in each other because ultimately on Sunday, that's what it's 971 00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:17,719 Speaker 1: going to come down to. I mean, you can't you know, 972 00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:19,359 Speaker 1: you're not gonna hear what a coach is yelling from 973 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:21,640 Speaker 1: the sideline or telling you on the sideline. You're gonna 974 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 1: be listening to the guy next to you, the guy 975 00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:25,839 Speaker 1: behind you for the information. And hopefully you've trained your 976 00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:27,640 Speaker 1: mind and your body so that you're prepared and can 977 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:30,800 Speaker 1: react accordingly and go out there and execute each play 978 00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:33,120 Speaker 1: to the best of your ability. Speaking of well done, 979 00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:36,120 Speaker 1: It's been said to me that defenses can develop quickly 980 00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:39,560 Speaker 1: sometimes because you're breaking something down as opposed to building 981 00:49:39,560 --> 00:49:41,520 Speaker 1: something up with the offense. So what do you think 982 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:43,960 Speaker 1: of the defensive performance so far? We saw some batted 983 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:46,840 Speaker 1: balls and picks on Saturday this camp, a lot of 984 00:49:46,920 --> 00:49:50,239 Speaker 1: veterans coming together in short order. Yeah, again, you're there's 985 00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:52,880 Speaker 1: peaks in valley. Some days offense is going to have 986 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 1: more success than the defense. The defense is gonna have 987 00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:56,920 Speaker 1: better days in the offense as training camp, So it's 988 00:49:56,920 --> 00:49:59,840 Speaker 1: about really how you respond. But specific to the defense, 989 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:01,400 Speaker 1: I think the effort has been good. We have a 990 00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:03,600 Speaker 1: lot of guys that are getting to the football. UM. 991 00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:06,279 Speaker 1: You're starting to see some of the team's speed show 992 00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:09,440 Speaker 1: up a little bit. So again, creating negative plays is 993 00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 1: it's not about one individual, one player. It's about a 994 00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:15,400 Speaker 1: collective team effort. So it's the front has to do 995 00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:17,239 Speaker 1: their job, linebar is gonna do their job, and then 996 00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:19,439 Speaker 1: we have to get all eleven hats to the ball. UM. 997 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:21,480 Speaker 1: But the communication has been good. There's been a lot 998 00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:24,280 Speaker 1: of energy UM, a lot of communication UM, and they've 999 00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:26,360 Speaker 1: they've been able to get their hands on some balls. 1000 00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:28,239 Speaker 1: Here in the training camp, and you just hope that 1001 00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:31,000 Speaker 1: continues moving forward. I really want to ask about the 1002 00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:32,879 Speaker 1: rookies because that would lead me to a question about 1003 00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:34,719 Speaker 1: the draft. But I know you poo poo that, so 1004 00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:41,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask you're so we know which is a 1005 00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:44,799 Speaker 1: good sign. But without pads, I get ask this a lot. 1006 00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 1: Nick people say, hey, what can you what can you 1007 00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:50,480 Speaker 1: learn about the big guys without pads. They're not wearing pads, 1008 00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:54,040 Speaker 1: they're not hitting. You know, it's a passing camp until 1009 00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:55,719 Speaker 1: the pads guad, But what can you learn about the 1010 00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 1: guys when they're not wearing pads down in the trenches. 1011 00:50:58,160 --> 00:50:59,839 Speaker 1: It's a great question. Do they know what to do? 1012 00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:02,400 Speaker 1: Can they execute your assignment? Can they do with the 1013 00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:05,839 Speaker 1: right fundamentals and techniques? So then you can watch those things, 1014 00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:07,800 Speaker 1: you can see those things, and if you need to 1015 00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:09,880 Speaker 1: get something corrected, you can go ahead and get it corrected, 1016 00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:12,239 Speaker 1: like are we getting the blocking the blockers distributed to 1017 00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:15,800 Speaker 1: appropriately and pass protection? Okay? That he miss a slide call? Okay, 1018 00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:18,839 Speaker 1: what happened? So there's things that you absolutely can see 1019 00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:22,000 Speaker 1: and evaluate. And then again, once you get into a 1020 00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:24,480 Speaker 1: padded practice setting, then you can kind of see some 1021 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:27,520 Speaker 1: of that, I would say, the physical toughness come to fruition, 1022 00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:29,200 Speaker 1: and then you can have a little bit more emphasis 1023 00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:31,399 Speaker 1: on a running game. But each day, whatever you're doing 1024 00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:33,480 Speaker 1: on the practice field as an opportunity for the player 1025 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:36,080 Speaker 1: to a to show the staff they know what to do. 1026 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:38,160 Speaker 1: And then again going back to what we just talked about, 1027 00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:40,799 Speaker 1: and still confidence in your teammates around you. All right, 1028 00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:43,640 Speaker 1: we see you out here writing down things on a 1029 00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:46,359 Speaker 1: piece of paper on your notepad. So what kinds of 1030 00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:48,600 Speaker 1: things do you write? What can you share with the listeners? 1031 00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 1: What kinds of thing might be my grocery list, so 1032 00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:55,600 Speaker 1: the ry cleaning. But what are you writing down? And 1033 00:51:55,640 --> 00:51:58,040 Speaker 1: what are you looking at later on tape maybe specific 1034 00:51:58,120 --> 00:52:01,440 Speaker 1: player interaction or performance? What are you looking at? Some 1035 00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:04,080 Speaker 1: of it is logistical, just operational. There's some things with 1036 00:52:04,239 --> 00:52:07,200 Speaker 1: practice or the flow of practice, or you know, a 1037 00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:10,480 Speaker 1: drill or a timing element, that kind of thing. And 1038 00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:13,160 Speaker 1: then again you just as you see things, you just 1039 00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:16,680 Speaker 1: something pops into your head about Okay, what happened on 1040 00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:19,200 Speaker 1: this play? You know, just make a note, go back 1041 00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:22,319 Speaker 1: and hey, what happened there? So again you're not going 1042 00:52:22,400 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 1: to see everything. You can't write a million things down. 1043 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:26,279 Speaker 1: I mean, I think you're like watching a play and 1044 00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:28,560 Speaker 1: evaluate and making notes about he took the wrong step, 1045 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:30,640 Speaker 1: he did this, that thinking. What you're trying to do 1046 00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:34,160 Speaker 1: is get a general overview of the play, see what happened, okay, 1047 00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:37,440 Speaker 1: to execute their assignment, and if something seems out of place, 1048 00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:39,520 Speaker 1: just go back and figure out, all right, what happened. 1049 00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 1: You know, like we had the first play of kickoff 1050 00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:46,000 Speaker 1: coverage the other day. You know we lost leverage on 1051 00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:48,040 Speaker 1: the left side as we're going down to coverage, so 1052 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:49,719 Speaker 1: you want to make a note, Hey, what happened? Okay, 1053 00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:52,000 Speaker 1: let's go back and then we when you see the film, 1054 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,680 Speaker 1: you can see what happened where the breakdown was. So 1055 00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 1: I think those are the types of things you're trying 1056 00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:59,200 Speaker 1: to see in real time and real speed as it happens, 1057 00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:01,600 Speaker 1: and then you go. I mean, John's writing down way 1058 00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:03,680 Speaker 1: more things on a practice field than I probably am. 1059 00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:05,399 Speaker 1: You don't needs to get a recorder, so he doesn't 1060 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:07,279 Speaker 1: write everything down in his notebook. I wish, but you 1061 00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:09,040 Speaker 1: know what t hell me, Nick, And I don't know 1062 00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:10,520 Speaker 1: if you guys do this too, but I notice the 1063 00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:12,080 Speaker 1: other day you guys will put some of the team 1064 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:15,000 Speaker 1: stuff on the big video board. So like I'm in 1065 00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:17,000 Speaker 1: the stadium watching the game, I'll watch a play and go, 1066 00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:19,279 Speaker 1: I think this was this, but let me and then 1067 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:21,680 Speaker 1: you showed up there. Do you find yourself looking up 1068 00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:23,759 Speaker 1: there at all to go, wait a second, what did 1069 00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:25,759 Speaker 1: we do there? Can I get a quick note from 1070 00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:28,279 Speaker 1: just seeing that? It's a good point, John, I don't 1071 00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:30,719 Speaker 1: do that necessarily. It's some players when they come off 1072 00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:32,480 Speaker 1: on the sidelines, and I think when you're going not 1073 00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,600 Speaker 1: necessarily o versus D, but when the players come off, 1074 00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:37,080 Speaker 1: they might be able to peek up. And then we 1075 00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:39,520 Speaker 1: also have our technology team does a great job have 1076 00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:41,840 Speaker 1: the iPads on the sidelines. Some coaches might want to 1077 00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:43,640 Speaker 1: go with their player and they can go through the 1078 00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:45,680 Speaker 1: series real quick and kind of see what happened. Which 1079 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:49,400 Speaker 1: what that does That actually simulates the game process, because 1080 00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:51,239 Speaker 1: what happens is a kiddy offenses on a field run 1081 00:53:51,280 --> 00:53:52,920 Speaker 1: x amount of plays, come off to the sideline, You 1082 00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:54,680 Speaker 1: sit in your groups, and then east coach has an 1083 00:53:54,680 --> 00:53:57,040 Speaker 1: iPad and they go through the series about what happened. 1084 00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:59,919 Speaker 1: So again you're trying to train your mind and train 1085 00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:02,480 Speaker 1: your process so that it's not necessarily all of a 1086 00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:04,480 Speaker 1: sun What we do on Sunday is something new. So 1087 00:54:04,520 --> 00:54:06,640 Speaker 1: I'd say that's the benefit of some of the technology 1088 00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:08,520 Speaker 1: that's out here. By the way, we need an offseason 1089 00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:12,120 Speaker 1: quarterback competition, like a skills competition with you Coullie, because 1090 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:15,360 Speaker 1: he played the position right bas again played right. You 1091 00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:17,280 Speaker 1: got Dylan tom tonight. You got a lot of quarterbacks 1092 00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:20,480 Speaker 1: out here, Nick, we do I'm all game, I'm I'm 1093 00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:23,520 Speaker 1: ready to go. So the old quarterback talent, Yeah, the 1094 00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:27,239 Speaker 1: old awesome. I don't know. I don't know if David 1095 00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:28,959 Speaker 1: want to do that, he might say I'm too old 1096 00:54:28,960 --> 00:54:31,960 Speaker 1: for that. He on the option for the Houston Texans 1097 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:34,960 Speaker 1: found day he was a way better. He's faster than me, 1098 00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:37,399 Speaker 1: so I was a bit. I was slow. I couldn't run, 1099 00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:40,239 Speaker 1: so I was too played me at safety and Navy 1100 00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:44,000 Speaker 1: League's look different. Look. We gotta see tape on that. Nick, 1101 00:54:44,040 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 1: thanks so much for joining us. Thanks so much. Have 1102 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:48,080 Speaker 1: a great day, all right, Nick, as Sario joining us, 1103 00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:50,879 Speaker 1: He'll visit a few more times during our Texans Trading 1104 00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:54,479 Speaker 1: Cap Live programs.

I mean, that's 1303 01:05:49,480 --> 01:05:52,720 Speaker 1: how dreams are in this country, right, That's what Marty 1304 01:05:52,760 --> 01:05:56,400 Speaker 1: Herny did. Marty Herny, former GM of the Carolina Panthers, 1305 01:05:56,440 --> 01:05:58,920 Speaker 1: did the same thing. He was a PR intern. I 1306 01:05:58,920 --> 01:06:01,400 Speaker 1: think he actually worked or a newspaper before he got 1307 01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:04,160 Speaker 1: with an NFL organization, worked his way up and became 1308 01:06:04,160 --> 01:06:07,240 Speaker 1: a GM and was instrumental in building that twenty fifteen team. 1309 01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:09,000 Speaker 1: I think he's with the Washington football team now, up 1310 01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:14,360 Speaker 1: with Ron Rivera, who speaking of had something to say. 1311 01:06:14,400 --> 01:06:17,640 Speaker 1: Coach Rivera had a little something to say about his team, uh, 1312 01:06:17,760 --> 01:06:21,880 Speaker 1: not not taking care of him because he's im immunu 1313 01:06:22,040 --> 01:06:24,960 Speaker 1: compromised about the vaccination. So he was he was a 1314 01:06:24,960 --> 01:06:27,040 Speaker 1: little he was a little uh, he was a little 1315 01:06:27,080 --> 01:06:30,080 Speaker 1: peeved about that. But I'll tell you who gives you something. 1316 01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:34,840 Speaker 1: Maybe it was Bill Polian. I was listening to Late 1317 01:06:34,880 --> 01:06:38,760 Speaker 1: one night and Bill Polian went on Mark I'm not joking. 1318 01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:43,520 Speaker 1: He went on a seven and a half minute soliloquy, talk, soliloquy, 1319 01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:46,520 Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it, about the franchise tag. 1320 01:06:47,040 --> 01:06:50,280 Speaker 1: Oh but I bet it was interesting because every single 1321 01:06:50,320 --> 01:06:53,080 Speaker 1: word because he wasn't there he was there at the 1322 01:06:53,360 --> 01:06:55,120 Speaker 1: He was in the room when they came up with 1323 01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:57,480 Speaker 1: the franchise tags, and they were talking about how the 1324 01:06:57,520 --> 01:07:01,920 Speaker 1: franchise tag, the franchise tags effect is not what it 1325 01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:03,600 Speaker 1: was meant to be now, and he kind of went 1326 01:07:03,600 --> 01:07:05,760 Speaker 1: through the history of it. I was hanging on every 1327 01:07:05,800 --> 01:07:08,640 Speaker 1: single word. Coach Culley is addressing the fans right now 1328 01:07:08,680 --> 01:07:13,680 Speaker 1: on the mic. You probably can't hear here, and it's it's, 1329 01:07:14,120 --> 01:07:15,360 Speaker 1: you know, we gotta find a way to get that 1330 01:07:15,440 --> 01:07:17,240 Speaker 1: on the air. We're gonna find a way, folks, We're 1331 01:07:17,240 --> 01:07:18,520 Speaker 1: gonna find a way to get that out of the air. 1332 01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:21,760 Speaker 1: He's addressing the fans here on the mic, and it's 1333 01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:25,000 Speaker 1: beautiful stuff as we're shooting it, so it'll be out 1334 01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:27,720 Speaker 1: on our Texans platforms soon enough. It's not like he's 1335 01:07:27,720 --> 01:07:29,640 Speaker 1: giving us seven and a half minutes a little quick no, 1336 01:07:29,640 --> 01:07:31,200 Speaker 1: no, no no, no, he's just doing his things. All right. 1337 01:07:31,240 --> 01:07:34,280 Speaker 1: Let's do a position group breakdown right now from the 1338 01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:41,080 Speaker 1: Houston Methodist Training Center the humid tundra as I channel 1339 01:07:41,640 --> 01:07:48,520 Speaker 1: John f send offensive line, Johnny, and let's go, as 1340 01:07:48,560 --> 01:07:52,400 Speaker 1: I like to say, in no particular order, We'll start 1341 01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:57,240 Speaker 1: with well, Marcus Cannon, but he is not really readily available. 1342 01:07:57,280 --> 01:07:59,880 Speaker 1: He's not readily available, but when he does become available, 1343 01:08:01,280 --> 01:08:03,280 Speaker 1: just the resource that he is right now. I know 1344 01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:06,400 Speaker 1: a lot of young guys I've seen talk to Marcus 1345 01:08:06,480 --> 01:08:08,520 Speaker 1: during the practice. He's talking to young guys. And not 1346 01:08:08,520 --> 01:08:11,040 Speaker 1: only just young guys, he's talking to Thymus Howard, He's 1347 01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:13,280 Speaker 1: talking to Larry Mtunsel. He is a major resource for 1348 01:08:13,280 --> 01:08:16,240 Speaker 1: these guys right now, and hopefully he'll get back relatively 1349 01:08:16,280 --> 01:08:19,880 Speaker 1: soon and we can see him be it at guard tackle. 1350 01:08:19,920 --> 01:08:22,040 Speaker 1: We'll see how that all plays out, but he's just 1351 01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:23,760 Speaker 1: gonna be a valuable resource to have on this team, 1352 01:08:23,800 --> 01:08:26,240 Speaker 1: no doubt. Go from a double digit year veteran too 1353 01:08:26,280 --> 01:08:29,559 Speaker 1: a rookie free agent out of college Texas saying, am 1354 01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:32,720 Speaker 1: Carson Green. Yeah, Carson played right tackle at Texas A 1355 01:08:32,760 --> 01:08:34,280 Speaker 1: and M. And I've seen him kind of all over 1356 01:08:34,320 --> 01:08:38,439 Speaker 1: the place here with the Texans, and I don't know 1357 01:08:38,479 --> 01:08:41,000 Speaker 1: what's best for him, but he was part of that 1358 01:08:41,080 --> 01:08:42,960 Speaker 1: Maroon goon squad at Texas A and M. So I 1359 01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:45,040 Speaker 1: can't wait to see when the pads gone because he 1360 01:08:45,120 --> 01:08:47,360 Speaker 1: looks relatively comfortable at here. I don't know if that 1361 01:08:47,439 --> 01:08:50,000 Speaker 1: results in a roster spot, but I do think it 1362 01:08:50,080 --> 01:08:53,800 Speaker 1: results in more time. That's really what you want. You 1363 01:08:53,880 --> 01:08:57,320 Speaker 1: want more time. It's year five for Rod Johnson. They 1364 01:08:57,400 --> 01:09:00,200 Speaker 1: developed him, they put him in the gym, hes kind 1365 01:09:00,240 --> 01:09:03,280 Speaker 1: of left for dead, and here he is. He's a 1366 01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:06,280 Speaker 1: very good contributor at the tackle spot. Could start for 1367 01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:07,800 Speaker 1: a lot of teams in the league. What do you 1368 01:09:07,800 --> 01:09:09,880 Speaker 1: think of Rod? One of the more underrated players. I 1369 01:09:09,920 --> 01:09:12,479 Speaker 1: think this team actually has I think people forget about 1370 01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:14,800 Speaker 1: him because, well, you have Laram, you have Titus. But 1371 01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:16,639 Speaker 1: how many times have we seen Rod have to step 1372 01:09:16,680 --> 01:09:19,200 Speaker 1: in because Laram he's out, or Titus is out, or 1373 01:09:19,240 --> 01:09:21,240 Speaker 1: somebody's banged up, and he can move things around and 1374 01:09:21,439 --> 01:09:23,080 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, sixty three comes in the game. 1375 01:09:23,280 --> 01:09:26,439 Speaker 1: He is just that reliable and his game has gotten 1376 01:09:26,840 --> 01:09:30,000 Speaker 1: even better now. He's coming off an injury from last year. 1377 01:09:30,280 --> 01:09:31,360 Speaker 1: I think it's the last game of the year. He 1378 01:09:31,439 --> 01:09:34,920 Speaker 1: got dinged up, so he's still kind of getting past that. 1379 01:09:35,080 --> 01:09:37,800 Speaker 1: But I think he looks pretty I think he looks 1380 01:09:37,800 --> 01:09:40,080 Speaker 1: pretty good, And like I said, underrated is the perfect 1381 01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:41,519 Speaker 1: word I would use to describe You gotta have a 1382 01:09:41,520 --> 01:09:43,720 Speaker 1: guy like Rod Johnson. You have to. I don't know 1383 01:09:43,760 --> 01:09:45,960 Speaker 1: if it's a line you do all right with injuries 1384 01:09:45,960 --> 01:09:49,559 Speaker 1: and such. McCray. Justin McCray, a fifth year player out 1385 01:09:49,600 --> 01:09:52,600 Speaker 1: of UCF, is getting a lot of reps with the 1386 01:09:52,760 --> 01:09:55,240 Speaker 1: first line. So what are you thinking of Justin? So far? 1387 01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:57,679 Speaker 1: Again a guy a lot like Rod, sort of underrated. 1388 01:09:57,760 --> 01:09:59,799 Speaker 1: He started in his league before playing with the Packers. 1389 01:09:59,880 --> 01:10:01,479 Speaker 1: The was the Browns. I think last year was with 1390 01:10:01,479 --> 01:10:04,200 Speaker 1: the Falcons, and that's the thing. With the depth on 1391 01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:06,200 Speaker 1: this team, I think they're probably I think he did 1392 01:10:06,200 --> 01:10:08,439 Speaker 1: the math on it one day. There are ten guys 1393 01:10:08,439 --> 01:10:11,519 Speaker 1: that have started a game in the NFL and he's 1394 01:10:11,560 --> 01:10:14,880 Speaker 1: one of them. He's a guy that James Campon worked 1395 01:10:14,920 --> 01:10:17,519 Speaker 1: with in Green Bay, so there's familiarity there and I 1396 01:10:17,600 --> 01:10:20,280 Speaker 1: like familiarity, and I think he's a veteran. Just watching 1397 01:10:20,360 --> 01:10:23,519 Speaker 1: him move, I think he looks more fluid than what 1398 01:10:23,600 --> 01:10:25,360 Speaker 1: we had a guard last year. So I'm excited to 1399 01:10:25,360 --> 01:10:27,360 Speaker 1: see what he's able to do. All right. Another guy 1400 01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:30,800 Speaker 1: worked with James Camping in Green Bay, Lane Taylor, ninth 1401 01:10:30,840 --> 01:10:34,280 Speaker 1: year out of Oklahoma State. Yeah, I wish he were healthy. 1402 01:10:34,479 --> 01:10:37,839 Speaker 1: I just wish you were healthy, and I hope he's close. 1403 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:40,160 Speaker 1: What's the projection thing? I don't know. I don't know, 1404 01:10:40,840 --> 01:10:42,920 Speaker 1: you know, he started he started Game one in twenty 1405 01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:46,240 Speaker 1: twenty and for the Packers and then got hurt in 1406 01:10:46,280 --> 01:10:47,560 Speaker 1: that game and then was out for the rest of 1407 01:10:47,600 --> 01:10:49,479 Speaker 1: the year. And it was the same thing year before. 1408 01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:51,280 Speaker 1: In twenty nineteen he started to think a couple games 1409 01:10:51,280 --> 01:10:54,080 Speaker 1: and that was out for the year. So I want 1410 01:10:54,120 --> 01:10:56,280 Speaker 1: to believe that there's something there, but it's just so 1411 01:10:56,320 --> 01:10:58,559 Speaker 1: hard with him having missed the last playing basically three 1412 01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:01,720 Speaker 1: games in the last two years. What he's got left 1413 01:11:01,760 --> 01:11:06,000 Speaker 1: in the tank? I would imagine if the Texans and 1414 01:11:06,080 --> 01:11:08,719 Speaker 1: Nick Sarah didn't think there was something left in the tank, 1415 01:11:08,720 --> 01:11:11,599 Speaker 1: they wouldn't even enterget and they would not even entertained 1416 01:11:11,600 --> 01:11:13,599 Speaker 1: the thought of signing him. So I think there's something 1417 01:11:13,640 --> 01:11:15,240 Speaker 1: there and hopefully we'll get a chance to see it soon. 1418 01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:18,680 Speaker 1: All right, So Cole Toner from your favorite university in 1419 01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:21,880 Speaker 1: his favor, don't even start, all right. They're the rival 1420 01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:25,200 Speaker 1: of every other IVY League team, Harvard, So what's the 1421 01:11:25,560 --> 01:11:28,679 Speaker 1: Cole Toner to do here? To try to make this squad? 1422 01:11:28,800 --> 01:11:31,040 Speaker 1: You know, Cole's getting some reps with the I think 1423 01:11:31,040 --> 01:11:33,080 Speaker 1: it's the ones the other day if I remember correctly, 1424 01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:34,720 Speaker 1: and he could play a number of different spots. He 1425 01:11:34,840 --> 01:11:36,719 Speaker 1: takes snaps at center, he can move over to guard. 1426 01:11:36,720 --> 01:11:38,880 Speaker 1: He started a few games for the Chargers, one of 1427 01:11:38,880 --> 01:11:42,080 Speaker 1: those guys that started in the league last year, So 1428 01:11:42,400 --> 01:11:44,960 Speaker 1: he's got experienced and I just don't I don't think 1429 01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:47,160 Speaker 1: we can make enough of that that. The depth that 1430 01:11:47,280 --> 01:11:49,840 Speaker 1: you have at those positions are guys that have got 1431 01:11:49,880 --> 01:11:54,200 Speaker 1: a ton of experience. Justin McCrae's got that, Coltoner's got that. Obviously, 1432 01:11:54,240 --> 01:11:56,320 Speaker 1: the guys up front of god Rod Johnson has started. 1433 01:11:56,400 --> 01:11:59,560 Speaker 1: Charlie Heck started two games last year, So there's experience 1434 01:11:59,600 --> 01:12:02,160 Speaker 1: and start experience even last year for these guys in 1435 01:12:02,160 --> 01:12:04,280 Speaker 1: the offensive line of col fits right into that. All right. 1436 01:12:04,360 --> 01:12:07,960 Speaker 1: Speaking of Charlie Heck, what about him? Well, the mustaches 1437 01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:11,479 Speaker 1: gotta go, do you think so? But the funniest thing. 1438 01:12:11,680 --> 01:12:15,040 Speaker 1: The funniest thing was talking to to Max Sharpen the 1439 01:12:15,040 --> 01:12:17,519 Speaker 1: other day and Max was like, yeah, we did it 1440 01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:19,760 Speaker 1: as a joke, and then he turned a joke back 1441 01:12:19,800 --> 01:12:23,080 Speaker 1: on us and kept it. But he's come a long 1442 01:12:23,120 --> 01:12:26,120 Speaker 1: way mark At this point last year, I didn't think 1443 01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:29,520 Speaker 1: I really was concerned whether Charlie was gonna make the team. 1444 01:12:29,600 --> 01:12:32,240 Speaker 1: I just thought he was struggling he just wasn't seemingly 1445 01:12:32,280 --> 01:12:35,720 Speaker 1: getting it. He just didn't look like it was right. 1446 01:12:35,800 --> 01:12:37,920 Speaker 1: And then as the year wore on and he got 1447 01:12:37,920 --> 01:12:39,759 Speaker 1: into games at the end of the year, he actually 1448 01:12:39,840 --> 01:12:43,160 Speaker 1: played much better than I expect it. Now it's year two. 1449 01:12:43,160 --> 01:12:45,680 Speaker 1: You've had some starting experience. We expect more out of you. 1450 01:12:45,920 --> 01:12:48,760 Speaker 1: I kind of hope we don't see him, but we 1451 01:12:48,840 --> 01:12:50,280 Speaker 1: may have to. And if we do, I feel very 1452 01:12:50,320 --> 01:12:52,080 Speaker 1: confident he's gonna go out there and give them a 1453 01:12:52,120 --> 01:12:53,680 Speaker 1: lot even better reps than he did at the end 1454 01:12:53,680 --> 01:12:56,880 Speaker 1: of last year. The stalwart from Seattle. Okay, it's been 1455 01:12:56,920 --> 01:13:00,320 Speaker 1: slow going lately, but Justin Brett here and look at 1456 01:13:00,320 --> 01:13:05,800 Speaker 1: a start at center, stout, thick, former wrestler, We'll fight 1457 01:13:05,880 --> 01:13:08,679 Speaker 1: you in a phone booth, really doesn't lose leverage wise. 1458 01:13:08,840 --> 01:13:11,920 Speaker 1: And I always felt like the last few years, you know, 1459 01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:14,559 Speaker 1: with Nick and other centers, they would get knocked back 1460 01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:17,200 Speaker 1: a lot, and that would throw off his own running game. 1461 01:13:17,240 --> 01:13:19,920 Speaker 1: In particular, I don't think Justin Britt's gonna get knocked 1462 01:13:19,960 --> 01:13:22,880 Speaker 1: off a lot. He's got a thick, trunk legs base 1463 01:13:23,320 --> 01:13:25,679 Speaker 1: that that's not gonna happen. And he wins leverage battles 1464 01:13:25,720 --> 01:13:28,280 Speaker 1: because of that wrestling experience, so I'm really excited to 1465 01:13:28,280 --> 01:13:30,040 Speaker 1: see him stay healthy and see what he's got. By 1466 01:13:30,040 --> 01:13:31,960 Speaker 1: the way, Clint Stirner just walked in and I think 1467 01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:33,960 Speaker 1: he's had the best tweet of this camp. I'll share 1468 01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:35,720 Speaker 1: that with you just a few moments here. Let's go 1469 01:13:35,760 --> 01:13:39,680 Speaker 1: to Jordan Steckler out of Northern Illinois. Yeah, teammate and 1470 01:13:39,760 --> 01:13:43,040 Speaker 1: Max Sharping and was with the Patriots the practice squad 1471 01:13:43,479 --> 01:13:46,080 Speaker 1: last year, so Nick Cassaria got a chance to see 1472 01:13:46,120 --> 01:13:47,920 Speaker 1: them up close, and personally, I think he's a guy 1473 01:13:48,240 --> 01:13:50,439 Speaker 1: when the pads go on, he's got to make an 1474 01:13:50,439 --> 01:13:53,759 Speaker 1: impression early to be able to have a little momentum 1475 01:13:53,800 --> 01:13:56,880 Speaker 1: to potentially get on his fifty three man roster, worst case, 1476 01:13:56,920 --> 01:13:59,679 Speaker 1: getting spot on the practice squad. All right, Titus Howard 1477 01:14:00,080 --> 01:14:02,960 Speaker 1: Year three already for Titus. What do you think? It's 1478 01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:06,280 Speaker 1: that year? It's that year. This new was Dwayne Brown's 1479 01:14:06,320 --> 01:14:08,920 Speaker 1: year in twenty ten, it was a third year. It's 1480 01:14:08,960 --> 01:14:10,960 Speaker 1: the third year for Titus. And I was watching the 1481 01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:14,160 Speaker 1: pass rush rep the other day and I can't remember. 1482 01:14:14,160 --> 01:14:16,200 Speaker 1: I think he was against Charles maybe, and Charles tried 1483 01:14:16,240 --> 01:14:18,759 Speaker 1: to throw a move on him and Titus just sat 1484 01:14:18,840 --> 01:14:23,800 Speaker 1: back on his haunches, knees bent perfect position and just 1485 01:14:23,920 --> 01:14:26,639 Speaker 1: locked him up. And I was like, that's the tightest 1486 01:14:26,640 --> 01:14:29,120 Speaker 1: Howard that's there, And that's the tightest Howard. We have 1487 01:14:29,320 --> 01:14:32,880 Speaker 1: to see every single snapp he's on the field. He's 1488 01:14:32,880 --> 01:14:35,840 Speaker 1: got to be. Yeah, but they're just not as big 1489 01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:39,840 Speaker 1: as Titus is, all right, darn Christian Senior. Yeah, I'm 1490 01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:41,640 Speaker 1: I'm curious to see what he's gonna be able to 1491 01:14:41,680 --> 01:14:44,479 Speaker 1: bring once he gets out here. It's either NFI or COVID. 1492 01:14:44,520 --> 01:14:46,439 Speaker 1: I'm not sure which one it is. But he started 1493 01:14:46,479 --> 01:14:48,800 Speaker 1: six games last year for the Washington football team, and 1494 01:14:48,840 --> 01:14:50,920 Speaker 1: he's got some ability to play out on the edge 1495 01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:53,200 Speaker 1: he's got in their division. Yeah, he's got He's got 1496 01:14:53,200 --> 01:14:54,840 Speaker 1: some things he's got to clean up in his game, 1497 01:14:54,960 --> 01:14:58,479 Speaker 1: but he's a whaleum an athlete and a big long 1498 01:14:58,920 --> 01:15:01,960 Speaker 1: dude for sure. Okay, Max Sharping, we're gonna hear from 1499 01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:05,000 Speaker 1: him soon enough. Yeah. I think last year for Max, 1500 01:15:05,040 --> 01:15:06,760 Speaker 1: he's mentioned this to me a couple of times and 1501 01:15:06,880 --> 01:15:09,200 Speaker 1: mentioned it to us. You're not having the off season, thought, 1502 01:15:09,200 --> 01:15:11,160 Speaker 1: what's very difficult for him. You know, you come out 1503 01:15:11,160 --> 01:15:13,160 Speaker 1: of year one, you started all year long, you come 1504 01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:15,479 Speaker 1: out of year two, but you don't have that year 1505 01:15:15,520 --> 01:15:18,760 Speaker 1: one of year two gap, you know, filled with a 1506 01:15:18,760 --> 01:15:20,560 Speaker 1: lot of work here, a lot offseason work. And I 1507 01:15:20,560 --> 01:15:22,439 Speaker 1: think it really showed last year. And I think Max, 1508 01:15:22,800 --> 01:15:24,880 Speaker 1: I think Max loss confidence last year. I think he's 1509 01:15:24,880 --> 01:15:29,720 Speaker 1: got it back. He's seemingly playing much more sound. He's 1510 01:15:29,720 --> 01:15:31,479 Speaker 1: had a full off season. I think that's really gonna 1511 01:15:31,479 --> 01:15:33,200 Speaker 1: help him in year three. All right, So we have 1512 01:15:33,240 --> 01:15:36,479 Speaker 1: two aggy rookies on the team, Carson Green one of 1513 01:15:36,520 --> 01:15:39,160 Speaker 1: the old lineman, and Ryan McCollum the other. Yeah, Ryan 1514 01:15:39,200 --> 01:15:41,960 Speaker 1: played center all year long for A and M And look, 1515 01:15:42,120 --> 01:15:44,639 Speaker 1: I think if you can play center, I think you've 1516 01:15:44,680 --> 01:15:47,679 Speaker 1: got an opportunity to stick around in any way, shape, 1517 01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:52,920 Speaker 1: or form. That ability to play center. Just if you 1518 01:15:53,080 --> 01:15:54,800 Speaker 1: know where you know, here's the mic. You can help 1519 01:15:54,840 --> 01:15:58,560 Speaker 1: your quarterback. Now he's the mic. This is what we're doing. Hey, 1520 01:15:58,600 --> 01:16:00,960 Speaker 1: we're sliding this way. This is our protection, here's what 1521 01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:02,880 Speaker 1: we want to do. If you can do that, you're 1522 01:16:02,920 --> 01:16:04,800 Speaker 1: gonna stick around in his league, whether you play one 1523 01:16:04,840 --> 01:16:07,760 Speaker 1: down or none. But you can be around for ten 1524 01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:09,720 Speaker 1: years if you just know what to do. And I 1525 01:16:09,760 --> 01:16:13,960 Speaker 1: think at center, you've got that opportunity for sure. All Right, boy, 1526 01:16:14,320 --> 01:16:16,519 Speaker 1: fro Holt. How do you pronounce his first name? I 1527 01:16:16,520 --> 01:16:20,360 Speaker 1: don't know that, Mark, I don't know. We need the 1528 01:16:20,400 --> 01:16:22,960 Speaker 1: produciation guy on that. I'm telling you, Mark, that is 1529 01:16:23,000 --> 01:16:27,479 Speaker 1: a thick dude. He is thick. I don't think his 1530 01:16:27,600 --> 01:16:31,280 Speaker 1: weight is very high, but he carries man all that 1531 01:16:31,360 --> 01:16:33,760 Speaker 1: weight and his butt, legs and thighs. I mean, he's 1532 01:16:33,760 --> 01:16:36,639 Speaker 1: a thick guy. And he's the Patriots last year actually 1533 01:16:36,640 --> 01:16:38,599 Speaker 1: played in a few games, might have been some special 1534 01:16:38,600 --> 01:16:40,479 Speaker 1: teams work, and then he came here at the last 1535 01:16:40,520 --> 01:16:41,600 Speaker 1: at the end of last year to be on the 1536 01:16:41,600 --> 01:16:45,160 Speaker 1: practice squad. And I think he's a guy that's got 1537 01:16:45,160 --> 01:16:48,519 Speaker 1: some potential, but it's not quite there yet. But man, 1538 01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:52,840 Speaker 1: he is he's a unit and I there's something there 1539 01:16:52,840 --> 01:16:54,439 Speaker 1: with him. I don't know. There's something about those guys 1540 01:16:54,439 --> 01:16:57,639 Speaker 1: from Arkansas. You gotta love him. And last, but certainly 1541 01:16:57,680 --> 01:17:02,040 Speaker 1: not least at all Laramie ton Soul. Yeah, that just 1542 01:17:02,200 --> 01:17:05,040 Speaker 1: he's the gold standards position. I mean he makes it 1543 01:17:05,160 --> 01:17:08,680 Speaker 1: look easy and it's not. Here's I wrote this in 1544 01:17:08,760 --> 01:17:11,960 Speaker 1: my observations the other day before practice. They're kind of 1545 01:17:11,960 --> 01:17:14,599 Speaker 1: way there's about thirty seconds left on the clock before 1546 01:17:14,600 --> 01:17:17,280 Speaker 1: practice actually starts. Kind of the pre practice stuff is done. 1547 01:17:17,680 --> 01:17:21,200 Speaker 1: And he was just playing catch with Dylan Thompson and 1548 01:17:21,320 --> 01:17:24,160 Speaker 1: Dylan's maybe forty forty five yards on the field and 1549 01:17:24,280 --> 01:17:28,519 Speaker 1: Laramie is just like flicking it, literally throwing the ball 1550 01:17:29,040 --> 01:17:32,120 Speaker 1: fifty yards and just dropping it right on him. And 1551 01:17:32,720 --> 01:17:35,320 Speaker 1: then when Dyl will throw it back to Laramie, Laramie 1552 01:17:35,479 --> 01:17:37,639 Speaker 1: would catch the ball with his hands like at his knees. 1553 01:17:37,680 --> 01:17:40,719 Speaker 1: And I was like, do we truly understand how athletic 1554 01:17:40,760 --> 01:17:43,320 Speaker 1: that dude is. Yeah, for that size, it's ridiculous. So 1555 01:17:43,439 --> 01:17:47,040 Speaker 1: that size in DJ Reader throwing the football all right, Yeah, 1556 01:17:47,080 --> 01:17:48,880 Speaker 1: and DJ had experience because he was a pitch I 1557 01:17:48,920 --> 01:17:51,320 Speaker 1: don't know if Laramie has at his background, but just 1558 01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:55,040 Speaker 1: mean flicking it fifty yards. And and there was a 1559 01:17:55,080 --> 01:17:57,680 Speaker 1: Twitter thread of a few about a week week and 1560 01:17:57,680 --> 01:18:00,200 Speaker 1: a half ago, some medium ever put out there, I 1561 01:18:00,240 --> 01:18:02,479 Speaker 1: could score touchdown in the NFL game down into one 1562 01:18:02,560 --> 01:18:04,320 Speaker 1: year old, like I could get that in. I'm like, dude, 1563 01:18:04,320 --> 01:18:06,720 Speaker 1: you have no idea, You have no idea. That's a 1564 01:18:06,800 --> 01:18:09,280 Speaker 1: left hand and get the handoff. You wouldn't even you 1565 01:18:09,320 --> 01:18:12,479 Speaker 1: wouldn't get the handoff. You would see those guys on 1566 01:18:12,520 --> 01:18:14,720 Speaker 1: the other side of you, and you'd be looking at them, 1567 01:18:14,760 --> 01:18:16,840 Speaker 1: you wouldn't get the handoff and then they somebody would 1568 01:18:16,880 --> 01:18:19,160 Speaker 1: knife through and squash you and you'd be done for 1569 01:18:19,160 --> 01:18:21,000 Speaker 1: the next eight years. Every once in a while, in 1570 01:18:21,040 --> 01:18:23,880 Speaker 1: a pickup basketball game, somebody who well, i'll give you 1571 01:18:23,880 --> 01:18:26,120 Speaker 1: a good example at the postoke why would he used 1572 01:18:26,120 --> 01:18:27,720 Speaker 1: to play there? There There was a guy who would come 1573 01:18:27,760 --> 01:18:30,439 Speaker 1: around who used to play for the Washington Generals, right 1574 01:18:30,600 --> 01:18:33,479 Speaker 1: the opponent for the Globe Trotters, so he toured with 1575 01:18:33,520 --> 01:18:36,280 Speaker 1: them and stuff. The guy was unbelievable, like you couldn't 1576 01:18:36,280 --> 01:18:40,759 Speaker 1: even get near him. Yes, you know, shooting rainbow threes, 1577 01:18:41,240 --> 01:18:45,400 Speaker 1: driving dunking like no chance for nobody. And that's a 1578 01:18:45,400 --> 01:18:47,840 Speaker 1: guy who played for the Washington Generals, never mind an 1579 01:18:47,920 --> 01:18:50,519 Speaker 1: NBA type player. So these NFL guys, forget it. You 1580 01:18:50,560 --> 01:18:54,200 Speaker 1: think you can punch it in not happening, all right. 1581 01:18:54,280 --> 01:18:56,320 Speaker 1: A lot of things just went into my mind right there, 1582 01:18:56,360 --> 01:18:58,000 Speaker 1: and I'm not going to mention all of them, except 1583 01:18:58,040 --> 01:19:01,760 Speaker 1: I did promise you this um Clint Sterners tweet. He 1584 01:19:01,760 --> 01:19:04,160 Speaker 1: tweeted about four on the first day, said, now you 1585 01:19:04,160 --> 01:19:06,519 Speaker 1: know what it's like to be Clint Sterner and trying practice. 1586 01:19:06,960 --> 01:19:11,599 Speaker 1: I saw that. I'll tell you this our man dirty read. 1587 01:19:11,640 --> 01:19:13,439 Speaker 1: He tweeted something out. This is probably about a week 1588 01:19:13,439 --> 01:19:15,920 Speaker 1: week and a half ago. He used this phrase and 1589 01:19:15,960 --> 01:19:18,479 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know if he got it 1590 01:19:18,520 --> 01:19:20,519 Speaker 1: from some word. He just came up with it. But 1591 01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:23,360 Speaker 1: he called it the you're not gonna tell me what 1592 01:19:23,439 --> 01:19:27,040 Speaker 1: to do? Generation. And I was like, that's brilliant. That 1593 01:19:27,160 --> 01:19:29,840 Speaker 1: is that's that's really really good. I want to get 1594 01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:32,880 Speaker 1: Clint over here. Clint, he's focused on watching the quarterbacks. 1595 01:19:33,320 --> 01:19:35,240 Speaker 1: We gotta get him over here, okay, because we are 1596 01:19:35,240 --> 01:19:37,200 Speaker 1: get him over here. We are talking about are we're 1597 01:19:37,240 --> 01:19:39,680 Speaker 1: we are taught. We're talking about you. We figured, you know, 1598 01:19:39,680 --> 01:19:41,439 Speaker 1: we should just throw you on the air. Dy. I mean, 1599 01:19:41,600 --> 01:19:44,120 Speaker 1: but wait a second though, Okay, we called you over here, 1600 01:19:44,320 --> 01:19:48,080 Speaker 1: but you're watching quarterbacks. We just interrupted all the little things. Man. 1601 01:19:48,120 --> 01:19:49,840 Speaker 1: I was z rode in on whether they were getting 1602 01:19:49,840 --> 01:19:53,000 Speaker 1: their shoulders turned and flipping, flicking the wrist and all that. Good. 1603 01:19:53,080 --> 01:19:55,160 Speaker 1: Really you get something out of watching? Yes, all right, 1604 01:19:55,160 --> 01:19:58,160 Speaker 1: so this is just the quarterbacks throwing to like the interns. Now, 1605 01:19:58,200 --> 01:20:00,000 Speaker 1: it's not the interns. Yeah, it's just just a quick 1606 01:20:00,040 --> 01:20:03,839 Speaker 1: first and they have those batting practice uh screens, screens, 1607 01:20:03,960 --> 01:20:06,639 Speaker 1: thank you Yeah. No, this is like, this is time 1608 01:20:06,680 --> 01:20:08,800 Speaker 1: for me to go to the restroom. This stuff. I 1609 01:20:08,880 --> 01:20:11,320 Speaker 1: need to watch them throw the receivers with dbs and 1610 01:20:11,360 --> 01:20:13,799 Speaker 1: everything like that. Oh no, man, this is good stuff. 1611 01:20:14,080 --> 01:20:15,519 Speaker 1: This is this is where you're like right now, they're 1612 01:20:15,560 --> 01:20:17,479 Speaker 1: just shooting at the little quick screens out to the 1613 01:20:17,479 --> 01:20:20,160 Speaker 1: receivers and that's where you can really see. Does a 1614 01:20:20,240 --> 01:20:22,280 Speaker 1: quarterback have to flip and like get his feet set 1615 01:20:22,600 --> 01:20:24,439 Speaker 1: and get his shoulders set to get the ball out 1616 01:20:24,520 --> 01:20:26,479 Speaker 1: or does he just does his feet stay anchored. Does 1617 01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:28,559 Speaker 1: he have the arm talent to just almost like a 1618 01:20:28,600 --> 01:20:32,120 Speaker 1: shortstop throw Carlos Korea type of things? Can he do 1619 01:20:32,200 --> 01:20:34,479 Speaker 1: those things? And so you gotta get it out quick?

I mean that those guys are 1624 01:20:43,120 --> 01:20:44,920 Speaker 1: sweating their tail off. I really like to watch that 1625 01:20:44,960 --> 01:20:46,519 Speaker 1: kind of stuff too. You know a lot of guys, 1626 01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:48,280 Speaker 1: I know, I know you don't believe it's mark are 1627 01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:50,200 Speaker 1: you Hell, you've been around, but a lot of times 1628 01:20:50,200 --> 01:20:52,519 Speaker 1: there's play guys just kind of standing around just kind 1629 01:20:52,520 --> 01:20:54,200 Speaker 1: of just doing what we are doing right now in 1630 01:20:54,280 --> 01:20:57,000 Speaker 1: these in these in the check Yeah, in these individual drills. 1631 01:20:57,240 --> 01:20:59,240 Speaker 1: But when the coaches got sweat run down to the 1632 01:20:59,280 --> 01:21:01,240 Speaker 1: bottom of a shirt, you know they're they're getting it in. 1633 01:21:01,280 --> 01:21:03,360 Speaker 1: So so I like to watch it all man. Yeah, 1634 01:21:03,360 --> 01:21:05,840 Speaker 1: well tell me something the other day. Obviously the red 1635 01:21:05,880 --> 01:21:09,880 Speaker 1: area defense have their way. Yeah. How tough is the 1636 01:21:09,920 --> 01:21:12,639 Speaker 1: red area for a young quarterback? Well, it's the toughest 1637 01:21:12,640 --> 01:21:14,720 Speaker 1: spot on the field for for any quarterback, right, I mean, 1638 01:21:14,960 --> 01:21:18,640 Speaker 1: the windows shrink significantly, the speed picks up. Um, you know, 1639 01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:20,920 Speaker 1: your decision making has to be yet to be confident 1640 01:21:21,000 --> 01:21:24,479 Speaker 1: number one, quick with your decision making. Um. And right now, 1641 01:21:24,560 --> 01:21:26,479 Speaker 1: you know with with Day I didn't see all the 1642 01:21:26,520 --> 01:21:30,080 Speaker 1: practice Saturday, but I heard about it. And before a 1643 01:21:30,120 --> 01:21:32,480 Speaker 1: guy like him, you know, you've got to have chemistry 1644 01:21:32,520 --> 01:21:34,599 Speaker 1: and you've got to know your guys. And there's just 1645 01:21:34,640 --> 01:21:37,439 Speaker 1: so much unknown right now with him, not a surprise 1646 01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:39,200 Speaker 1: that he struggles in the red zone the first time 1647 01:21:39,200 --> 01:21:41,400 Speaker 1: he gets down there in the team drill. And we're 1648 01:21:41,400 --> 01:21:43,280 Speaker 1: in what is it, day four of camp, when that 1649 01:21:43,680 --> 01:21:46,599 Speaker 1: day four camp defense is significantly ahead of the offense anyway, 1650 01:21:46,680 --> 01:21:49,479 Speaker 1: So um, not not surprised that the young fellows struggled 1651 01:21:49,479 --> 01:21:52,240 Speaker 1: a little bit tough Saturday. And he's going against ones. Yeah, 1652 01:21:52,320 --> 01:21:54,519 Speaker 1: he had been going against twos at best. So he's 1653 01:21:54,520 --> 01:21:57,280 Speaker 1: finally seeing the ones. Love those lines. Cle, We're watching 1654 01:21:57,320 --> 01:22:00,680 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks throw how many? How many boss would you 1655 01:22:00,680 --> 01:22:04,920 Speaker 1: throw during a training camp practice? Oh wow, did you 1656 01:22:05,280 --> 01:22:07,439 Speaker 1: show your tweet? And I loved your tweet by the way, 1657 01:22:07,520 --> 01:22:10,000 Speaker 1: about four here, yeah, said, now we know what it's 1658 01:22:10,040 --> 01:22:15,080 Speaker 1: like to be at Yeah. Well, n needless to say, 1659 01:22:15,120 --> 01:22:17,040 Speaker 1: I took these individual drills that were watching right now. 1660 01:22:17,040 --> 01:22:18,320 Speaker 1: I took them a little more serious than the next 1661 01:22:18,360 --> 01:22:19,880 Speaker 1: guy because I knew it was probably the majority of 1662 01:22:19,880 --> 01:22:23,240 Speaker 1: my reps that day. I don't know, I don't know, Johnny. 1663 01:22:23,240 --> 01:22:25,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess I would throw probably fifty or 1664 01:22:25,280 --> 01:22:28,160 Speaker 1: sixty balls before we before we got into team, and 1665 01:22:28,160 --> 01:22:30,200 Speaker 1: then I would stay after practice and do what these 1666 01:22:30,200 --> 01:22:32,160 Speaker 1: guys are doing now to get more work in and 1667 01:22:32,439 --> 01:22:34,120 Speaker 1: a little bit more act Like right now, they're just 1668 01:22:34,160 --> 01:22:36,599 Speaker 1: working their release points, they're working their footwork, and then 1669 01:22:36,600 --> 01:22:39,840 Speaker 1: I'm sure Pet Hamilton's got them individually working something specifically. 1670 01:22:39,880 --> 01:22:42,040 Speaker 1: But you know, after practice, if you want to just 1671 01:22:42,160 --> 01:22:44,360 Speaker 1: really hone in on accuracy. You don't want to have 1672 01:22:44,360 --> 01:22:45,800 Speaker 1: your coach talking about your feet. You don't want to 1673 01:22:45,800 --> 01:22:47,720 Speaker 1: worry about your shoulders. You want to hope hopefully those 1674 01:22:47,760 --> 01:22:50,639 Speaker 1: habits take over. Well, then I'm throwing at the square 1675 01:22:50,760 --> 01:22:52,880 Speaker 1: number one, number two or number three, and then I've 1676 01:22:52,920 --> 01:22:54,320 Speaker 1: got always had a guy out there with me to 1677 01:22:54,360 --> 01:22:56,880 Speaker 1: compete with me a little bit. And then so at 1678 01:22:56,880 --> 01:22:59,639 Speaker 1: that point I'm just working strict accuracy, just getting accuracy reps. 1679 01:22:59,640 --> 01:23:02,120 Speaker 1: But this here is all hey, man, where's your big 1680 01:23:02,120 --> 01:23:04,680 Speaker 1: toe pointed as your or your shoulders level? Where your 1681 01:23:04,760 --> 01:23:06,960 Speaker 1: eyes at um? So I don't know. I meant by 1682 01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:09,160 Speaker 1: the time the day finished, man, I would say I'd 1683 01:23:09,200 --> 01:23:12,080 Speaker 1: try to get anywhere from one hundred twenty five throws in. 1684 01:23:12,160 --> 01:23:14,439 Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting you're talking about accuracy. One of 1685 01:23:14,479 --> 01:23:16,400 Speaker 1: my favorite stories about accuracies going back in the Senior 1686 01:23:16,400 --> 01:23:19,240 Speaker 1: Bowl at twenty eighteen, I'm watching Josh Allen from ten 1687 01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:22,720 Speaker 1: feet away doing the three square net literally from ten 1688 01:23:22,760 --> 01:23:25,519 Speaker 1: feet away, and he airmails it twice spot on air, 1689 01:23:25,600 --> 01:23:27,800 Speaker 1: and I'm like, man, this guy's never like I like 1690 01:23:27,960 --> 01:23:30,759 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff about him, but he's never gonna 1691 01:23:30,920 --> 01:23:32,960 Speaker 1: get it. Like, the accuracy's never gonna be there, and 1692 01:23:33,120 --> 01:23:35,280 Speaker 1: last year he's learning more one of the more accurate 1693 01:23:35,400 --> 01:23:39,360 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the league. So at some point somebody's teaching 1694 01:23:39,520 --> 01:23:41,920 Speaker 1: him and he's learning how to be more accurate. Well, 1695 01:23:41,920 --> 01:23:43,479 Speaker 1: it's it's all those guys you got, you got him. 1696 01:23:43,479 --> 01:23:45,760 Speaker 1: You gotta look Justin Herbert's saying, he's Josh Allen two 1697 01:23:45,800 --> 01:23:47,680 Speaker 1: point oh. I mean you got you got guys that 1698 01:23:47,800 --> 01:23:49,880 Speaker 1: have all this power. It's like trying to keep a 1699 01:23:50,000 --> 01:23:52,240 Speaker 1: Nascar on on fifty nine out here. You know, it's 1700 01:23:52,320 --> 01:23:54,479 Speaker 1: it's tough, and they gotta learn how to how to 1701 01:23:54,680 --> 01:23:57,479 Speaker 1: hone that power. I will always I will always say 1702 01:23:57,520 --> 01:24:00,479 Speaker 1: it's it's the technical side of throwing the football. You 1703 01:24:00,520 --> 01:24:03,280 Speaker 1: can watch a guy throw and and technically if he's 1704 01:24:03,320 --> 01:24:06,080 Speaker 1: if he's if he's snapping his wrist, if if he's 1705 01:24:06,720 --> 01:24:08,960 Speaker 1: um you know I if it's a short stride, if 1706 01:24:09,200 --> 01:24:11,960 Speaker 1: if it's a twitchymotion, then the odds of him being 1707 01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:14,599 Speaker 1: accurate are a lot are a lot higher than those 1708 01:24:14,720 --> 01:24:17,519 Speaker 1: those high caliber guys like and I say caliber mean power, 1709 01:24:17,640 --> 01:24:20,479 Speaker 1: like like you're Josh Allens and you're Justin Herber. Those 1710 01:24:20,479 --> 01:24:23,400 Speaker 1: guys have they have so much power and they've been 1711 01:24:24,280 --> 01:24:27,599 Speaker 1: praised their whole life because of it. I saw ESPN 1712 01:24:27,960 --> 01:24:30,040 Speaker 1: posted a video I don't know if you, I'm sure 1713 01:24:30,080 --> 01:24:32,320 Speaker 1: you guys saw it of Justin Herbert and they posted 1714 01:24:32,360 --> 01:24:34,200 Speaker 1: because he threw the ball sixty two yards or something 1715 01:24:34,280 --> 01:24:36,120 Speaker 1: the air. But if you watch a video, the receiver 1716 01:24:36,240 --> 01:24:38,280 Speaker 1: catches a five yards out of allens. So what are 1717 01:24:38,320 --> 01:24:40,040 Speaker 1: we doing here? You're praising the guy because he threw 1718 01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:42,560 Speaker 1: a sixty but it was it was incomplete and so 1719 01:24:42,720 --> 01:24:44,120 Speaker 1: and there was by the way, it was one hundred 1720 01:24:44,160 --> 01:24:47,680 Speaker 1: percent incomplete because you can't catch the ball out about that, right, 1721 01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:49,800 Speaker 1: So those guys trying to hone in on on not 1722 01:24:49,960 --> 01:24:52,080 Speaker 1: just controlling that power, but then trying to, like you said, 1723 01:24:52,160 --> 01:24:54,400 Speaker 1: hit that dime from twenty yards away, it's tough to do. 1724 01:24:54,640 --> 01:24:56,560 Speaker 1: How hard is it you coming from college? You have 1725 01:24:56,760 --> 01:24:59,160 Speaker 1: some success all these guys, right, and you do what 1726 01:24:59,240 --> 01:25:01,280 Speaker 1: you do, but they want to change maybe some things 1727 01:25:01,320 --> 01:25:04,040 Speaker 1: like your footwork or your throwing motion or whatever it 1728 01:25:04,160 --> 01:25:06,120 Speaker 1: might be. How hard is it to change that stuff 1729 01:25:06,120 --> 01:25:07,720 Speaker 1: at this level? I mean, you must have to work 1730 01:25:07,760 --> 01:25:09,800 Speaker 1: on that all offseason long to get better. Well a 1731 01:25:09,800 --> 01:25:11,200 Speaker 1: lot of times you do, yeah, I mean, but but 1732 01:25:11,360 --> 01:25:13,599 Speaker 1: but to me mark about being successful at this level 1733 01:25:13,680 --> 01:25:15,960 Speaker 1: is I mean, you have to be several things. Obviously 1734 01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:18,080 Speaker 1: be a really talented player, but you have to be 1735 01:25:18,200 --> 01:25:21,280 Speaker 1: coachable to a fault. I mean you have. I if 1736 01:25:21,320 --> 01:25:23,160 Speaker 1: that coach says, hey, I want your right big toe 1737 01:25:23,200 --> 01:25:26,160 Speaker 1: in the turf and I want your your shoulders level, 1738 01:25:26,240 --> 01:25:27,840 Speaker 1: well damn it, I'm gonna get in the mirror until 1739 01:25:27,840 --> 01:25:29,800 Speaker 1: my right big toes in the turf, my shoulders are level, 1740 01:25:29,880 --> 01:25:31,920 Speaker 1: you know, I mean you you have to be that 1741 01:25:32,120 --> 01:25:34,479 Speaker 1: coachable because ultimately, when you go out there, there's a 1742 01:25:34,520 --> 01:25:38,160 Speaker 1: different you know, five or five percent different in completion. 1743 01:25:38,240 --> 01:25:40,559 Speaker 1: Percentage may not matter in college because you can run around, 1744 01:25:40,600 --> 01:25:42,799 Speaker 1: you can make highlight real throws, and here it matters, 1745 01:25:43,040 --> 01:25:45,880 Speaker 1: right and five percent definitely matters, but two percent may 1746 01:25:45,920 --> 01:25:48,559 Speaker 1: even matter here. So, um, if you're not that coachable, 1747 01:25:48,600 --> 01:25:50,720 Speaker 1: by the time you get here, you're you're gonna get that, 1748 01:25:50,760 --> 01:25:52,840 Speaker 1: they're gonna trim the fat. You're gonna get pushed out 1749 01:25:52,840 --> 01:25:55,599 Speaker 1: the door. Unless you're just freakishly talented, you're gonna get 1750 01:25:55,600 --> 01:25:57,720 Speaker 1: pushed out the door. So most of the guys here, 1751 01:25:58,200 --> 01:26:01,080 Speaker 1: I mean you, you would think that are extremely coachable, 1752 01:26:01,080 --> 01:26:03,680 Speaker 1: and most importantly they're not just yes, yes, or I'll 1753 01:26:03,960 --> 01:26:06,320 Speaker 1: do it, but they have the ability to apply pretty 1754 01:26:06,360 --> 01:26:08,080 Speaker 1: quickly when they're told to do something. When is the 1755 01:26:08,160 --> 01:26:11,639 Speaker 1: grind kick into this camp? Right now? Right now? Right now? Yeah, 1756 01:26:11,640 --> 01:26:13,360 Speaker 1: I mean the buzz. The buzz wears off, you know, 1757 01:26:13,479 --> 01:26:15,599 Speaker 1: the being around the fellas again, wears off the fact 1758 01:26:15,600 --> 01:26:18,160 Speaker 1: that COVID nineteen was a mess last year. All that 1759 01:26:18,240 --> 01:26:19,840 Speaker 1: stuff wears off, and all of a sudden, you start 1760 01:26:19,840 --> 01:26:22,120 Speaker 1: thinking about the legs getting a little bit heavy. You know, 1761 01:26:22,200 --> 01:26:24,240 Speaker 1: you're tired of coach yelling at you in film and 1762 01:26:24,280 --> 01:26:26,720 Speaker 1: telling you how how often you screw up, and you know, 1763 01:26:26,760 --> 01:26:28,639 Speaker 1: all that kind of thing gets right now is the time. 1764 01:26:28,680 --> 01:26:30,519 Speaker 1: The next two or three days is when it really 1765 01:26:30,600 --> 01:26:33,280 Speaker 1: starts to grind because they have a game in in 1766 01:26:33,439 --> 01:26:36,040 Speaker 1: ten practices. Yeah, preseas a game or something like that. 1767 01:26:36,080 --> 01:26:38,720 Speaker 1: I scheduled this morning a couple of weeks, I guess um. 1768 01:26:38,800 --> 01:26:40,920 Speaker 1: So you know, you next Monday, you'll be able to 1769 01:26:40,960 --> 01:26:42,200 Speaker 1: look at this thing and go, hey, we got a 1770 01:26:42,240 --> 01:26:43,800 Speaker 1: game coming out of pike.

Here he is for year two. From 1897 01:34:03,160 --> 01:34:06,040 Speaker 1: a football family, It's Charlie Hick. How's it been this 1898 01:34:06,200 --> 01:34:09,080 Speaker 1: year versus last year? With all the protocols last year, 1899 01:34:09,120 --> 01:34:10,880 Speaker 1: You still have them this year, but it's a little different. 1900 01:34:11,000 --> 01:34:13,519 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you still have them this year. But getting in, 1901 01:34:14,160 --> 01:34:16,960 Speaker 1: being able to do the OTAs, being around the players 1902 01:34:17,040 --> 01:34:19,599 Speaker 1: that extra time. I mean it really has been. It's 1903 01:34:19,640 --> 01:34:21,720 Speaker 1: really vital for the old line, especially getting to build 1904 01:34:21,760 --> 01:34:25,000 Speaker 1: that chemistry earlier. How did the off season go for you? 1905 01:34:25,280 --> 01:34:28,200 Speaker 1: A full off season, no pre draft prep, nothing like that. 1906 01:34:28,640 --> 01:34:30,439 Speaker 1: Oh no, I really needed that because you know, I 1907 01:34:30,560 --> 01:34:32,280 Speaker 1: missed out on that as a rookie because of the 1908 01:34:32,360 --> 01:34:35,400 Speaker 1: COVID stuff. So I really wanted to take full advantage 1909 01:34:35,400 --> 01:34:38,320 Speaker 1: of this off seasons. All is in here at the facility, 1910 01:34:39,200 --> 01:34:42,920 Speaker 1: getting in, meeting the new players, getting stronger, learning the players. 1911 01:34:43,040 --> 01:34:45,519 Speaker 1: It was good. All right. So how's this camp going 1912 01:34:45,640 --> 01:34:48,639 Speaker 1: for you? All your reps of tackle? It's going well. 1913 01:34:48,720 --> 01:34:50,560 Speaker 1: You know, you just camp. It's a long camp, so 1914 01:34:50,640 --> 01:34:53,960 Speaker 1: you just gotta keep stacking days, getting better every day. Yeah. Well, 1915 01:34:54,400 --> 01:34:56,160 Speaker 1: you did well last year when you got out there, 1916 01:34:56,280 --> 01:34:58,800 Speaker 1: got a big bite of action in the twenty twenty season. 1917 01:34:58,840 --> 01:35:00,880 Speaker 1: How did that help you get ready this year? You 1918 01:35:00,920 --> 01:35:03,200 Speaker 1: know it definitely. It definitely told myself that I can 1919 01:35:03,320 --> 01:35:05,280 Speaker 1: play in this league, you know. So I took that 1920 01:35:05,680 --> 01:35:08,040 Speaker 1: confidence and I desire to get back out on the 1921 01:35:08,080 --> 01:35:10,240 Speaker 1: field this offseason. So I'm looking forward to it again. 1922 01:35:10,560 --> 01:35:12,439 Speaker 1: All right. You come from a football family. I know 1923 01:35:12,520 --> 01:35:14,439 Speaker 1: this cup probably comes up at every interview you do. 1924 01:35:14,640 --> 01:35:17,680 Speaker 1: But wide North Carolina? What factored into your decision there? 1925 01:35:17,960 --> 01:35:20,160 Speaker 1: You know? So my older brother was playing football there 1926 01:35:20,200 --> 01:35:22,599 Speaker 1: at the time, you know, so that was a huge factor. 1927 01:35:22,640 --> 01:35:25,880 Speaker 1: I was just signing between Notre Dame and UNC, and 1928 01:35:26,240 --> 01:35:29,080 Speaker 1: when UNC offered the scholarship, I couldn't turn it down. 1929 01:35:29,920 --> 01:35:31,720 Speaker 1: Made some of the best friends I could ever have 1930 01:35:31,920 --> 01:35:34,400 Speaker 1: made there and got an unbelievable education. All right, what's 1931 01:35:34,400 --> 01:35:37,600 Speaker 1: the relationship like the relationship between the football team and 1932 01:35:37,640 --> 01:35:40,960 Speaker 1: the hoop team at North Carolina. No, it's a good relationship. 1933 01:35:41,080 --> 01:35:44,479 Speaker 1: You know, my first few years at school, basketball was 1934 01:35:44,520 --> 01:35:46,840 Speaker 1: getting all the attention. But you know, coach Brown has 1935 01:35:46,880 --> 01:35:49,519 Speaker 1: really set a new standard over there and people were 1936 01:35:49,560 --> 01:35:51,519 Speaker 1: really starting to talk about football again. All right. When 1937 01:35:51,520 --> 01:35:53,360 Speaker 1: you were a little kid, your dad is coaching with 1938 01:35:53,560 --> 01:35:55,920 Speaker 1: Kansas City. Who were some of the players that really 1939 01:35:56,120 --> 01:35:58,160 Speaker 1: caught your eye that you looked up to that you 1940 01:35:58,240 --> 01:36:00,720 Speaker 1: were a fan of up close in person them? Oh? Yeah, 1941 01:36:00,720 --> 01:36:04,439 Speaker 1: I mean I was sin since the Chiefs drafted Travis Kelsey, 1942 01:36:04,479 --> 01:36:05,800 Speaker 1: I was always a huge fan of him. You know, 1943 01:36:05,880 --> 01:36:08,439 Speaker 1: I got his jersey all the Chiefs games I wanted to. 1944 01:36:08,560 --> 01:36:10,800 Speaker 1: That's what I was rocking when I was younger. Is 1945 01:36:10,840 --> 01:36:13,360 Speaker 1: it hard when a tackle has to give up playing 1946 01:36:13,479 --> 01:36:16,160 Speaker 1: tight end because tight end can be a glamorous position. 1947 01:36:16,240 --> 01:36:19,040 Speaker 1: Tackle not as much. What was that like for you? Yeah? 1948 01:36:19,040 --> 01:36:20,800 Speaker 1: I think every tackle lots to go through that at 1949 01:36:20,880 --> 01:36:23,519 Speaker 1: some point when they realized, you know, you're just not 1950 01:36:23,680 --> 01:36:26,360 Speaker 1: quite fast enough. But I knew that was coming so 1951 01:36:26,600 --> 01:36:28,720 Speaker 1: early on. When I got to college, I made that 1952 01:36:28,800 --> 01:36:32,559 Speaker 1: transition then it was just about getting gaining the weight 1953 01:36:32,680 --> 01:36:35,320 Speaker 1: and kind of learning the new position. Charlie, thanks a lot, 1954 01:36:35,360 --> 01:36:38,960 Speaker 1: good luck to you. Absolutely, thank you. Charlie. Heck his 1955 01:36:39,120 --> 01:36:42,320 Speaker 1: father Andy, assistant with the Chiefs. And you know when 1956 01:36:42,320 --> 01:36:44,680 Speaker 1: I asked him that question, you know, I know how 1957 01:36:44,760 --> 01:36:46,920 Speaker 1: old Charlie is, but I figured, you know, I was 1958 01:36:46,960 --> 01:36:50,120 Speaker 1: thinking maybe like you're Trent Green. I knew what was 1959 01:36:50,200 --> 01:36:53,320 Speaker 1: gonna be, like Lynn Dawson, you know, Krista de Koyer. 1960 01:36:53,960 --> 01:36:57,920 Speaker 1: But yeah, Travis Kelsey, Oh thanks, thanks. I feel so 1961 01:36:58,240 --> 01:37:00,200 Speaker 1: ancient right now. Yeah, when I was a kid, I 1962 01:37:00,280 --> 01:37:02,559 Speaker 1: was a fan of Travis Kelsey. I'm sure Travis feels 1963 01:37:02,600 --> 01:37:04,400 Speaker 1: old hearing that. Well, you didn't want him to tell 1964 01:37:04,439 --> 01:37:06,880 Speaker 1: you who he loved when his dad was coaching in Jacksonville, 1965 01:37:06,960 --> 01:37:10,920 Speaker 1: did you? No? Okay o, No, you know what, Jacksonville 1966 01:37:10,960 --> 01:37:13,400 Speaker 1: doesn't bother me as much, Johnny, for whatever reason. Look 1967 01:37:13,600 --> 01:37:15,879 Speaker 1: the first ever road victory, the history of the franchise 1968 01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:19,240 Speaker 1: at Jacksonville, Mark Brunell slinging it. They had Fred Taylor, 1969 01:37:19,280 --> 01:37:21,839 Speaker 1: they were good back then. How about Mark Brunelle quarterbacks 1970 01:37:21,920 --> 01:37:25,000 Speaker 1: coach with Troy Lyons. How about that. It's interesting with 1971 01:37:25,120 --> 01:37:28,240 Speaker 1: Dan Campbell and our buddy Aaron Glenn as the defensive 1972 01:37:28,280 --> 01:37:31,760 Speaker 1: coordinator there. I think that's a team too. I mean, look, 1973 01:37:31,760 --> 01:37:33,519 Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's a team to watch, but I 1974 01:37:33,640 --> 01:37:35,200 Speaker 1: watch all the teams right and I want to see 1975 01:37:35,240 --> 01:37:37,639 Speaker 1: how they do. And you know you brought it up earlier, 1976 01:37:37,720 --> 01:37:39,840 Speaker 1: Johnny the Colts and a bit of a pickle with 1977 01:37:39,960 --> 01:37:43,519 Speaker 1: Carson Ware. Look, when you go get a quarterback because 1978 01:37:43,520 --> 01:37:47,759 Speaker 1: you're a starter is in jured, I think the foot situation. 1979 01:37:51,600 --> 01:37:55,160 Speaker 1: If you love podcast and you love the Texans, you'll 1980 01:37:55,240 --> 01:38:04,800 Speaker 1: love our Texans podcast iTunes. Oh we're back, We're back. Yeah, 1981 01:38:04,880 --> 01:38:07,240 Speaker 1: we just said the voice guys step in first because 1982 01:38:07,280 --> 01:38:09,719 Speaker 1: he wants to promote the podcast. Here's the thing about 1983 01:38:09,760 --> 01:38:13,240 Speaker 1: a foot injury. Yeah, if his mechanics are already jacked 1984 01:38:13,280 --> 01:38:15,920 Speaker 1: up sort of going to Indianapolis, a foot injury is 1985 01:38:15,960 --> 01:38:18,599 Speaker 1: not gonna make it any better because now, if it's 1986 01:38:18,600 --> 01:38:20,720 Speaker 1: your back foot, it's your drive foot. So now all 1987 01:38:20,760 --> 01:38:22,880 Speaker 1: of a sudden you're throwing all arm I guarantee if 1988 01:38:22,920 --> 01:38:24,479 Speaker 1: it's his back foot, that shoulder is going to be 1989 01:38:24,479 --> 01:38:27,120 Speaker 1: an issue. If it's his front foot, then all of 1990 01:38:27,120 --> 01:38:29,840 Speaker 1: a sudden, that front foot's out there and you got 1991 01:38:29,920 --> 01:38:32,200 Speaker 1: all that chaos. And trash in front. Are you gonna 1992 01:38:32,240 --> 01:38:34,400 Speaker 1: want to step and drive? Are you gonna kind of 1993 01:38:34,439 --> 01:38:36,360 Speaker 1: pull back in short step? There are a lot of 1994 01:38:36,400 --> 01:38:38,120 Speaker 1: things that can go wrong with that foot injury. So 1995 01:38:38,240 --> 01:38:40,479 Speaker 1: I'm really curious to see how they're gonna play this. 1996 01:38:41,200 --> 01:38:45,800 Speaker 1: Here's here's my hunch, just my speculation. This is me 1997 01:38:45,920 --> 01:38:48,960 Speaker 1: about the foot or about that situation. I don't know 1998 01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:51,280 Speaker 1: what's gonna happen for them. I don't think Carson Wentz 1999 01:38:51,320 --> 01:38:54,240 Speaker 1: will play in twenty twenty one. Oh well look here, 2000 01:38:54,320 --> 01:38:55,760 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think he will try to come 2001 01:38:55,800 --> 01:38:58,080 Speaker 1: back for camp. I think he will try to come 2002 01:38:58,120 --> 01:39:00,760 Speaker 1: back and go. If you go to a specialist, yeah, 2003 01:39:01,000 --> 01:39:04,240 Speaker 1: it even good. What bothers me for his sake is 2004 01:39:05,000 --> 01:39:09,639 Speaker 1: when surgery is a consideration and it's August, right, that's 2005 01:39:09,640 --> 01:39:11,240 Speaker 1: a problem. You know, it's one thing if you're gonna 2006 01:39:11,320 --> 01:39:13,560 Speaker 1: ride it out. Shop once told me that with the 2007 01:39:13,640 --> 01:39:17,519 Speaker 1: Liz frant injury, that if it was week seventeen, he 2008 01:39:17,720 --> 01:39:20,280 Speaker 1: might have like taped and gluded together and tried to 2009 01:39:20,320 --> 01:39:21,600 Speaker 1: play in the playoffs, which I don't know if he 2010 01:39:21,640 --> 01:39:22,880 Speaker 1: would have been able to do that. That might have 2011 01:39:22,920 --> 01:39:25,400 Speaker 1: been wishful thinking. But the point is this late in 2012 01:39:25,439 --> 01:39:27,800 Speaker 1: the season. You know, Brady played with the FC. If 2013 01:39:27,840 --> 01:39:30,560 Speaker 1: Brady has that day one of camp last year, is 2014 01:39:30,600 --> 01:39:32,640 Speaker 1: he gonna make it the whole way? I don't know. 2015 01:39:32,920 --> 01:39:36,240 Speaker 1: This is a foot could be anything. And that's a 2016 01:39:36,720 --> 01:39:39,120 Speaker 1: hot take by you. Wentz doesn't play at all this year, 2017 01:39:39,280 --> 01:39:41,200 Speaker 1: which means they gotta go get somebody again. There's no 2018 01:39:41,320 --> 01:39:46,519 Speaker 1: Jacobi Prisett. How's Jacob Eeson? Talented? Yeah, but but not 2019 01:39:46,720 --> 01:39:50,000 Speaker 1: very good. A guy with his talent should not have 2020 01:39:50,080 --> 01:39:53,840 Speaker 1: been drafted, you know, with those physical skills as late 2021 01:39:53,880 --> 01:39:55,680 Speaker 1: as he was in the third round? Is it what 2022 01:39:55,760 --> 01:39:58,280 Speaker 1: Clint was talking about. He's got a big arm. Yes, okay, 2023 01:39:58,439 --> 01:40:03,679 Speaker 1: massive arm, but accuracy I can in harm but he's 2024 01:40:03,720 --> 01:40:06,800 Speaker 1: just never could never harness it, you know click talking 2025 01:40:06,800 --> 01:40:09,920 Speaker 1: about harnessing all that that sort of power like dragon 2026 01:40:09,960 --> 01:40:12,320 Speaker 1: ball Z, like you know, getting it all in here. 2027 01:40:12,560 --> 01:40:15,160 Speaker 1: That's those guys. That's what Josh Allen, working with Jordan Palmer, 2028 01:40:15,160 --> 01:40:17,800 Speaker 1: has been able to do. You know you brought up yeah, 2029 01:40:17,920 --> 01:40:20,360 Speaker 1: Josh Allen before in the last segment with Clint, and 2030 01:40:20,720 --> 01:40:23,000 Speaker 1: I give him a ton of credit because a lot 2031 01:40:23,080 --> 01:40:25,320 Speaker 1: of guys who have a big arm like that and 2032 01:40:25,520 --> 01:40:27,800 Speaker 1: the accuracy isn't where it needs to be. They don't 2033 01:40:27,840 --> 01:40:29,600 Speaker 1: get better. No, I mean, so many people in this 2034 01:40:29,760 --> 01:40:34,200 Speaker 1: league don't get better in that department especially, but he has, 2035 01:40:34,360 --> 01:40:36,599 Speaker 1: he's taken to the coaching, he's really worked on his game. 2036 01:40:36,880 --> 01:40:39,000 Speaker 1: And I'm not really eager to see the results in 2037 01:40:39,280 --> 01:40:41,800 Speaker 1: this year's campaign because we're gonna be af their year 2038 01:40:42,240 --> 01:40:45,679 Speaker 1: week four and gotta deal with him. Then, Hey, around 2039 01:40:45,720 --> 01:40:48,880 Speaker 1: the NFL, you brought the Bills, Well, what the story 2040 01:40:48,960 --> 01:40:52,000 Speaker 1: about them? Looking at Austin? Yeah, that cannot happen. I 2041 01:40:52,040 --> 01:40:54,760 Speaker 1: don't think that now Austin is blowing up as a city. 2042 01:40:54,840 --> 01:40:57,439 Speaker 1: We all know it's it's really expanding. And you know, 2043 01:40:57,520 --> 01:40:59,000 Speaker 1: the Raiders should have moved to Austin with all the 2044 01:40:59,080 --> 01:41:03,080 Speaker 1: Californians moving there, maybe they should have figured into Austin. Look, 2045 01:41:04,040 --> 01:41:08,120 Speaker 1: but here's the thing though, that that location cannot lose 2046 01:41:08,160 --> 01:41:11,439 Speaker 1: to the population. Since the Texans came back, came into 2047 01:41:11,439 --> 01:41:14,320 Speaker 1: the league, since pro football came back to Houston, think 2048 01:41:14,360 --> 01:41:15,760 Speaker 1: of I don't have the numbers in front of me, 2049 01:41:15,880 --> 01:41:19,280 Speaker 1: but the population of Houston has exploded. Yes, obviously Austin 2050 01:41:19,479 --> 01:41:21,360 Speaker 1: and San Antonio. I don't know if it's as much, 2051 01:41:21,439 --> 01:41:25,240 Speaker 1: but I would assume some. Obviously so I think that 2052 01:41:25,400 --> 01:41:28,400 Speaker 1: these three markets, if you want to combine Austin and 2053 01:41:28,439 --> 01:41:32,280 Speaker 1: San Antonio into one huge market, they could probably support 2054 01:41:32,360 --> 01:41:34,519 Speaker 1: it these days because you look at what happens in 2055 01:41:34,600 --> 01:41:37,600 Speaker 1: the northeast. Baltimore is so close to Washington, which is 2056 01:41:37,640 --> 01:41:39,360 Speaker 1: so you know, and they're all they're both so close 2057 01:41:39,400 --> 01:41:41,160 Speaker 1: to Philly. And then he got two teams in New York, 2058 01:41:41,280 --> 01:41:43,360 Speaker 1: and you know, you got a lot of teams jammed 2059 01:41:43,439 --> 01:41:47,120 Speaker 1: up in there, and maybe that'll happen here eventually. You know, 2060 01:41:47,240 --> 01:41:49,680 Speaker 1: it's twenty twenty one. Who's to say, But I don't 2061 01:41:49,720 --> 01:41:51,280 Speaker 1: want to see it. I would rather have, like us 2062 01:41:51,320 --> 01:41:53,599 Speaker 1: in the Cowboys, fight for the lone Star state.

That's 2166 01:47:58,920 --> 01:48:01,720 Speaker 1: carb overload. Well, it's just a morning thing because we're 2167 01:48:01,720 --> 01:48:03,679 Speaker 1: out here in the heat. But I mean, I'm glad 2168 01:48:03,720 --> 01:48:06,960 Speaker 1: you're fat shaming me, Vandy. Not everybody does push ups, 2169 01:48:07,000 --> 01:48:12,160 Speaker 1: but every time out not fat shy shaming you at alls. 2170 01:48:12,200 --> 01:48:14,080 Speaker 1: I'm the same way. I'm like, I swear off caffeine 2171 01:48:14,120 --> 01:48:15,599 Speaker 1: except for that mountain do I have on the way 2172 01:48:15,640 --> 01:48:19,679 Speaker 1: to work that one. Listen, I am not perfect at all, 2173 01:48:20,000 --> 01:48:21,800 Speaker 1: although Johnny and I get to eat in the team 2174 01:48:21,880 --> 01:48:24,560 Speaker 1: cafeteria because we're in the inter seers and it is 2175 01:48:24,680 --> 01:48:28,200 Speaker 1: hard to eat badly there, like you just eat well. 2176 01:48:28,320 --> 01:48:31,719 Speaker 1: They're healthy meaning and uh, they have it under control, 2177 01:48:31,920 --> 01:48:33,800 Speaker 1: except for they make the perfect bacon and I can 2178 01:48:33,960 --> 01:48:37,760 Speaker 1: do some breast, Yeah breakfast. Do y'all ever ordered take 2179 01:48:37,800 --> 01:48:39,519 Speaker 1: out there? Because I was making a joke that when 2180 01:48:39,560 --> 01:48:43,439 Speaker 1: O'Brien left, he talked about the cafeteria at least four 2181 01:48:43,479 --> 01:48:45,680 Speaker 1: times a day. It seemed like I was wondering if 2182 01:48:45,720 --> 01:48:47,200 Speaker 1: he would like hit up some of his buddies and 2183 01:48:47,280 --> 01:48:48,960 Speaker 1: have him bring him take out or something like that. 2184 01:48:49,479 --> 01:48:51,400 Speaker 1: I don't know if he did that, but you can 2185 01:48:51,479 --> 01:48:53,680 Speaker 1: take it to go box with you. So I do 2186 01:48:53,800 --> 01:48:55,360 Speaker 1: that at my desk quite. I would do that every 2187 01:48:55,439 --> 01:48:57,320 Speaker 1: day because they have they strowed a lot of social 2188 01:48:57,400 --> 01:48:59,880 Speaker 1: distancing type stuff in there. Anyway, it's time from Landry 2189 01:49:00,080 --> 01:49:03,120 Speaker 1: camp question. You guys just mentioned ball security drills. What 2190 01:49:03,280 --> 01:49:06,639 Speaker 1: is y'all's favorite drill to watch during training camp? That's 2191 01:49:06,680 --> 01:49:08,720 Speaker 1: a great well. I saw a new one the other day. 2192 01:49:09,240 --> 01:49:12,519 Speaker 1: I saw two of them. Number one was a well. 2193 01:49:12,560 --> 01:49:16,880 Speaker 1: The one they did Saturday was Yeah, there's two special teams. 2194 01:49:16,920 --> 01:49:19,519 Speaker 1: One so they had a big hula hoop. Oh yeah, 2195 01:49:19,640 --> 01:49:22,360 Speaker 1: you've seen these on if you watch like pass rushers 2196 01:49:22,400 --> 01:49:24,800 Speaker 1: put their stuff on Instagram. Yea, they got these big 2197 01:49:24,880 --> 01:49:26,880 Speaker 1: hula hoops and three guys would run around was like 2198 01:49:26,960 --> 01:49:29,360 Speaker 1: musical chairs kind of thing, and they would follow each 2199 01:49:29,360 --> 01:49:31,280 Speaker 1: other and then the wind the whistle would blow and 2200 01:49:31,400 --> 01:49:33,200 Speaker 1: you'd had to finish around the hoop and then go 2201 01:49:33,320 --> 01:49:35,120 Speaker 1: down and chase the punt return. It was a great drill. 2202 01:49:36,200 --> 01:49:38,080 Speaker 1: It looked like a kids game, but it's a great 2203 01:49:38,120 --> 01:49:40,960 Speaker 1: teacher because if you're the third guy out of there, 2204 01:49:41,000 --> 01:49:44,479 Speaker 1: you know you can't follow any of your guys down there. 2205 01:49:44,720 --> 01:49:48,759 Speaker 1: That's the rule on pump pursuit. Kickoff pursuit. You can't follow. 2206 01:49:48,880 --> 01:49:51,760 Speaker 1: You gotta get into your lane. And so if you're 2207 01:49:51,800 --> 01:49:54,519 Speaker 1: the third guy, you gotta make a big adjustment. Okay, 2208 01:49:54,600 --> 01:49:55,880 Speaker 1: these two guys kind of went off this way. I 2209 01:49:55,880 --> 01:49:57,280 Speaker 1: gotta make Shy go off this way in case your 2210 01:49:57,320 --> 01:49:59,040 Speaker 1: returning goes here. It was a great drill. The other 2211 01:49:59,080 --> 01:50:02,760 Speaker 1: one I saw the other day. They had two tacklers 2212 01:50:03,080 --> 01:50:05,720 Speaker 1: and a ball carrier and they went in opposite They 2213 01:50:05,800 --> 01:50:09,640 Speaker 1: ran in opposite directions around a cone and then they 2214 01:50:09,760 --> 01:50:12,760 Speaker 1: came basically almost like meeting in the middle. Yeah, and 2215 01:50:12,920 --> 01:50:14,840 Speaker 1: then and then the ball carrier would have to make 2216 01:50:14,920 --> 01:50:17,400 Speaker 1: a guy miss or like shake him and go between them, 2217 01:50:17,840 --> 01:50:22,280 Speaker 1: and then they would have to be in the right carrier. 2218 01:50:22,439 --> 01:50:24,680 Speaker 1: It's not an easy drill, but mark Ingram I think 2219 01:50:24,680 --> 01:50:26,760 Speaker 1: it was the first guy to do it. Burkehead. Some 2220 01:50:26,880 --> 01:50:29,479 Speaker 1: Burkhead shook somebody, dude, Burkhead, I'm telling you right now, 2221 01:50:29,920 --> 01:50:32,640 Speaker 1: Burkhead shook uh guy who wasn't It was one of 2222 01:50:32,680 --> 01:50:34,880 Speaker 1: the linebacks. He shook a linebacker ound of his socks. 2223 01:50:35,280 --> 01:50:37,800 Speaker 1: That dude has got some serious quicks. I don't think 2224 01:50:37,840 --> 01:50:40,439 Speaker 1: we're I didn't even think he had a love it. 2225 01:50:40,560 --> 01:50:41,960 Speaker 1: We got a long way to go, but it's gonna 2226 01:50:41,960 --> 01:50:44,000 Speaker 1: be interesting when they get to that final cuff. For 2227 01:50:44,040 --> 01:50:46,680 Speaker 1: the running backs to say the least look other than 2228 01:50:46,760 --> 01:50:48,840 Speaker 1: eleven on eleven, that doesn't count for this question. I 2229 01:50:48,880 --> 01:50:51,680 Speaker 1: would just say one on one receivers in dB is 2230 01:50:51,680 --> 01:50:55,479 Speaker 1: going deeper, running whatever patterns they are usually running in 2231 01:50:55,560 --> 01:50:58,439 Speaker 1: these one on one situations, as long as it's twenty 2232 01:50:58,520 --> 01:51:00,960 Speaker 1: yards and beyond. I love watching that stuff. All right, 2233 01:51:01,160 --> 01:51:04,320 Speaker 1: What have you seen from the rookies so far? And 2234 01:51:04,560 --> 01:51:08,120 Speaker 1: I'm focusing specifically I'm Brevin Jordan and Nico Collins because 2235 01:51:08,360 --> 01:51:10,920 Speaker 1: it's one thing for me to say these guys look good, 2236 01:51:10,960 --> 01:51:13,680 Speaker 1: but these guys look good to me. Uh am. I 2237 01:51:13,800 --> 01:51:18,040 Speaker 1: seeing correctly that Collins and Jordan looking very good. Early 2238 01:51:18,120 --> 01:51:20,080 Speaker 1: on in camp, Collins picked one off the top of 2239 01:51:20,120 --> 01:51:22,720 Speaker 1: somebody's head. I think it was crossing. That was a 2240 01:51:22,880 --> 01:51:25,120 Speaker 1: sick moss like grab, I don't. I think you tweeted 2241 01:51:25,120 --> 01:51:27,360 Speaker 1: the picture was fifteen. I didn't tweet the picture because 2242 01:51:27,360 --> 01:51:29,479 Speaker 1: there was no camera, but I tweeted the description it was. 2243 01:51:29,720 --> 01:51:32,439 Speaker 1: It was perfect coverage, perfect coverage, but he went up 2244 01:51:32,439 --> 01:51:34,479 Speaker 1: and got it. At fifteen feet over where you are 2245 01:51:34,600 --> 01:51:36,560 Speaker 1: right now. Yeah, Nico just went right over here. And 2246 01:51:36,560 --> 01:51:38,240 Speaker 1: that's one of the things that Nico can do. You 2247 01:51:38,360 --> 01:51:40,920 Speaker 1: let him. You let him posterize you. Who posterize you? 2248 01:51:41,080 --> 01:51:43,120 Speaker 1: You know, Jalen Green's gonna put some dudes on posters 2249 01:51:43,200 --> 01:51:46,360 Speaker 1: this year. Nico can do the same thing. I think Brevin. 2250 01:51:46,680 --> 01:51:49,839 Speaker 1: First of all, Brevin physically looks different than I expected. 2251 01:51:50,120 --> 01:51:55,040 Speaker 1: He's much more put together than I anticipated. But I 2252 01:51:55,120 --> 01:51:57,360 Speaker 1: think for him, it's just a little things. Like athletically, 2253 01:51:57,400 --> 01:51:59,000 Speaker 1: I don't know that he's got there's a peer in 2254 01:51:59,040 --> 01:52:02,679 Speaker 1: the tight endlove. I mean, athletically he's he's off the charts, 2255 01:52:02,760 --> 01:52:04,880 Speaker 1: but it's just little things. He'll catch a pass out 2256 01:52:04,880 --> 01:52:07,000 Speaker 1: of flat, he'll turn up the ball, get away from 2257 01:52:07,000 --> 01:52:08,720 Speaker 1: his body. Have seen a couple of times guys knock 2258 01:52:08,760 --> 01:52:11,080 Speaker 1: it out. Those are the things that he's really gotta 2259 01:52:11,160 --> 01:52:15,439 Speaker 1: get better with. But athletically speaking, those two wow, very impressive. Yeah, 2260 01:52:15,479 --> 01:52:17,720 Speaker 1: I noticed that too. And look, Mills is obviously a 2261 01:52:17,840 --> 01:52:21,679 Speaker 1: rookie of great magnitude for this team, third round draft choice, 2262 01:52:21,720 --> 01:52:24,960 Speaker 1: and had that rough red area practice on Saturday. But 2263 01:52:25,120 --> 01:52:26,760 Speaker 1: let's see what he learns from it. I think that 2264 01:52:26,880 --> 01:52:28,560 Speaker 1: This is gonna be a huge day for him, and 2265 01:52:28,680 --> 01:52:31,240 Speaker 1: tomorrow the first day in pads, because let's see what 2266 01:52:31,280 --> 01:52:33,160 Speaker 1: he did during the day off. Look at the tape, 2267 01:52:33,200 --> 01:52:35,240 Speaker 1: try to come back. Look he got a stack days 2268 01:52:35,520 --> 01:52:38,040 Speaker 1: like they say, and get better every day and he 2269 01:52:38,280 --> 01:52:41,040 Speaker 1: knows it. He's not the first quarterback in the history 2270 01:52:41,040 --> 01:52:43,400 Speaker 1: of this league to have a rough red zone practice 2271 01:52:43,560 --> 01:52:46,080 Speaker 1: in his first training camp. So let's see how it 2272 01:52:46,160 --> 01:52:49,400 Speaker 1: goes from here. What's the best Texans uniform combination? Oh, 2273 01:52:49,720 --> 01:52:52,840 Speaker 1: I am all over this one? Battle red and I 2274 01:52:53,240 --> 01:52:58,439 Speaker 1: want white pants. I don't. I don't. I don't love 2275 01:52:58,479 --> 01:53:02,519 Speaker 1: the ketchup bottles. Here's what I want. I want white pants, 2276 01:53:02,960 --> 01:53:05,960 Speaker 1: red tops, that's my favorite. And blue helmet. I want 2277 01:53:06,000 --> 01:53:09,160 Speaker 1: the red helmet. I want a red helmet. Yeah, which 2278 01:53:09,160 --> 01:53:10,920 Speaker 1: doesn't love that red helmet. But if I gotta go, 2279 01:53:11,040 --> 01:53:14,439 Speaker 1: I go battle red, white, red, blue. Right, That's why 2280 01:53:14,439 --> 01:53:16,679 Speaker 1: I go with. Look, I'm gonna go color Rush deep 2281 01:53:16,720 --> 01:53:19,040 Speaker 1: steel blue, all blue. The color Rush. That should be 2282 01:53:19,080 --> 01:53:21,080 Speaker 1: the regular uniform. I think it's just so good and 2283 01:53:21,160 --> 01:53:23,200 Speaker 1: they always seem to play well when they wear that. 2284 01:53:23,360 --> 01:53:25,640 Speaker 1: I think the players love it. They get all jacked up, 2285 01:53:25,880 --> 01:53:27,920 Speaker 1: So why not let them wear it? All right, Landry 2286 01:53:28,040 --> 01:53:31,600 Speaker 1: back in sixteen against the Jags, and I gotta have 2287 01:53:31,760 --> 01:53:35,880 Speaker 1: it game. Yea. They wore blue blue pants with the 2288 01:53:35,920 --> 01:53:40,559 Speaker 1: red top and it looks but they won. I liked 2289 01:53:40,600 --> 01:53:43,439 Speaker 1: it all hit. I gotta go all hight Man. You're like, 2290 01:53:43,560 --> 01:53:48,240 Speaker 1: oh yeah, we know why why because that's your favorite 2291 01:53:48,280 --> 01:53:52,920 Speaker 1: that's your favorite college teams.
