1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,400 Speaker 1: Welcome into Texans All Access on a Tuesday. 2 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:05,520 Speaker 2: We are well rested, we are refreshed after the bye. 3 00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:07,000 Speaker 1: We are ready for Carolina. 4 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,360 Speaker 2: I'm dpcdo Mark Vin Ermir, Drew Doerty joining me once 5 00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:11,240 Speaker 2: again this Tuesday. 6 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:14,160 Speaker 1: How do you guys feel heading into week eight? 7 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:16,639 Speaker 3: I feel really excited to get back at it. 8 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:17,400 Speaker 1: But it's exciting. 9 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 3: But this is a unique dynamic. I have not felt 10 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:24,439 Speaker 3: this feeling in years, which is you're going in no, 11 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:27,480 Speaker 3: but you're going into a place where you like, I'm 12 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 3: gonna put it in air quotes, supposed to win. You're 13 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 3: supposed to win against Carolina. When was the last time 14 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 3: we had something like this occur. It's certainly maybe twenty twenty. No, 15 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,160 Speaker 3: you didn't really have it in twenty twenty. You should 16 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,280 Speaker 3: beat the Jags, I guess, but the season was already 17 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 3: out of control by then. You are very much a 18 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:46,600 Speaker 3: going concern right now. You've won three out of the 19 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 3: last four. Going to Carolina there winless. You're supposed to win. 20 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 3: So this makes me nervous. And that kind of nervous 21 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 3: anxiety in a healthy sports way is not something I 22 00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 3: felt or something I haven't felt in a long time. 23 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 4: I don't know about you, guys. Twenty I just put 24 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 4: a whole set of asterisks. But I don't even count 25 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 4: that year in any sport. Really, I got it. I 26 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 4: was just you brought that up. When when have you 27 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,479 Speaker 4: been favored last to win a game on the road? 28 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 4: Would it have been Tampa Bay in nineteighteen when you 29 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 4: won the division? You win that game? 30 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 3: No, Sean Pandergast had this because who else was it 31 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,680 Speaker 3: was in twenty twenty, I think against Detroit Thanksgiving. 32 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, so I count all right. 33 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 3: Legit seasons, yes, legit. 34 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 2: Like one of the actual seasons with bands and people 35 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,320 Speaker 2: cheering and now all the other stuff. 36 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 3: It's a bizarre feeling, though. You feel like the Texans 37 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:34,039 Speaker 3: have a good team here. 38 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:38,040 Speaker 4: That's how that is, how awful it has been for 39 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 4: the last four years. You say a bizarre feeling. 40 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 3: It is, But I'm just being honest here, and that's 41 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,559 Speaker 3: what we do. We this Tuesday's Texans All Access seven pm. 42 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 4: It's absolutely bizarre, but I'm just saying. 43 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is like a therapy session, delirious. 44 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 1: We're so happy. 45 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 2: We're like three and three, and you know, people are 46 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 2: talking about the playoff were implications. 47 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 3: I'm watching the games this weekend, and I see one 48 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 3: win New England knockoff Buffalo. I see one win Chicago 49 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 3: with a quarterback no one ever heard of from a 50 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 3: university no one ever heard of, beat a three and three. 51 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,799 Speaker 3: That's the same record as the Texans Raiders team at 52 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 3: their place. You're going into Carolina's place, and I've talked 53 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 3: to their play by play announcer. He said, Bryce Young 54 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,359 Speaker 3: is not the problem here. It's not him, it's the team. 55 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 3: And I don't know if that's supposed to make me 56 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 3: feel better or whatever. I'm Bryce Young. I'm not going 57 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 3: to write them off, are you kidding? After six games, 58 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 3: we'll see where it takes him. But it's just an 59 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,679 Speaker 3: unusual feeling considering where we've been in the last few years. 60 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 2: I think that when you look at what Bryce Young 61 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 2: has done, like leading up to the last few games, 62 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 2: I'm kind of with you, Mark that you feel like 63 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 2: you don't want this to be the game that you overlook. Yeah, 64 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 2: because you're like, oh, they're ohe and to six Bryce youngest. 65 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 2: Certainly he's getting better. He's week over week he's getting better. 66 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,519 Speaker 2: And then they change their play caller Thomas Brown, So yeah, 67 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,359 Speaker 2: they might get some extra they're coming off the by, 68 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,079 Speaker 2: they've got a new play caller, maybe they've got a 69 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 2: little extra juice, maybe some guys are healthier. I mean, 70 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 2: I'm with you, but it's still exciting to see. I mean, 71 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,839 Speaker 2: this was the game that when the schedule came out, 72 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 2: I was really hoping it would be a primetime game. 73 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 2: I thought, seeing Bryce Young and CJ. Stroud number one 74 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 2: versus number two, like it would be a night game. 75 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 2: Of course, that's not where we're at now with it, 76 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 2: but I think that if Bryce Young is going to 77 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 2: turn things around, it's probably coming. 78 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: He was the number one drafted quarterback for a reason. 79 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure. And I haven't watched a single snap 80 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 4: really other than a highlight or two of Carolina football. 81 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,679 Speaker 4: But there's this corner of this pocket of twitter that's 82 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 4: been out there the last two three weeks that has 83 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 4: pretty much been spiking the ball on Bryce Young and CJ. 84 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 4: Stroud saying, oh it's clear CJ. Stroud. Now, look, CJ 85 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 4: has played better so far. CJ, I hope. I think 86 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 4: has a really good chance of being the better quarterback 87 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 4: long term. But I'm not ready to toss dirt on 88 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 4: Bryce Young's NFL grave quite yet, and so, like you know, 89 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 4: and getting ready for this game, I start looking at 90 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 4: the stats and I'm like, okay, well he does have 91 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 4: more touchdowns and interceptions so far far by Yeah. Yeah, 92 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 4: he's only had two games in which he's actually thrown 93 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 4: a pick. He's been clean. The other three games he's 94 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 4: been sacked quite a bit. Yeah, nothing alarming, like you 95 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 4: know Deshaun Watson his first couple of years. Nothing like 96 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 4: you know CJ. Stroud the first two games of this season. 97 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 4: So and he's completing what around sixty percent of his passes, 98 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,119 Speaker 4: So it's not like he's just this dog. So hearing 99 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 4: your your pal that that's calling the games say that, 100 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 4: that kind of lines up with just the blind stat look, 101 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 4: and it's kind of making me say, what what is 102 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 4: going on there? What's the deeper problem? So and we're 103 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 4: gonna find that out or not find that out this Sunday. 104 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 3: Offensive line injuries, they're not running the balls as well 105 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 3: as they want to, right, They've got Miles Sanders, they've 106 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 3: got Cuba Hubbard, who is said to be their best 107 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 3: running back. And look, they've got good weapons. Adam feelings 108 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 3: here for them, But I think defensively when you swing 109 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 3: over to that side. The thing that pops out to 110 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 3: me is they're in the bottom third or three of 111 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 3: the league. You know, it's thirtieth or worse in rushing 112 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 3: yards allowed. Right, So this should be or could be. 113 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 3: I never should say should in the NFL, this could 114 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 3: be an opportunity to get another good ground game going. 115 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 3: You had one hundred and twenty yards last time out 116 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 3: against the Raiders, and that was cool. But and that 117 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 3: was second best of the year, right, so maybe you 118 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 3: can get another one of those. In addition to play 119 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 3: and clean you get the victory. But that to me 120 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 3: is a huge sign. If you're allowing yards on the 121 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,799 Speaker 3: ground like the Texans did in twenty twenty one twenty 122 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 3: twenty two, it's a tough sign. It's a tough go. 123 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 2: Okay, I want to unpack the run game. But first, 124 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 2: like the Bryce Young CJ. Stroud thing, Drew, you brought 125 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 2: up an interesting point like, we're not throwing dirt on 126 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 2: anyone's grave. But who do you think I'll ask both 127 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 2: of you guys this, who do you think has something 128 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 2: more to prove in this game? Do you think Bryce 129 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 2: Young wants to prove? Hey, I really am the number 130 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 2: one pick? 131 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: Or do you think it's CJ. 132 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 2: Stroud saying I should have been drafted number one over role. 133 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 2: I feel like both these guys have something to prove, 134 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 2: but who has more in it to win it? 135 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's great, that's because it's split. I mean, Young 136 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 4: has not won a game yet, and then Stroud's a 137 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 4: guy that was not picked first overall and he's playing great, 138 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 4: So there's Yeah, it's like you say, there's a lot 139 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 4: to prove. I got I gotta go with Bryce Shung. 140 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 4: He still hasn't won a game. He's seeing all the 141 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 4: love and the adulation for the guy that got picked 142 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 4: second and all that. So I think Bryce Young's the 143 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 4: guy with so much to prove. Who knows how much 144 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 4: of that they're internalizing. I don't believe either if they 145 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 4: say they're not thinking about it, but you know, I'm 146 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,919 Speaker 4: not either also saying that that they're consumed by it. 147 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 4: But it's got to be somewhere in their mind to 148 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 4: a degree. 149 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 3: All right, not that every game is a referendum in 150 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 3: the NFL, but but there are elements to it because 151 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 3: the media is always going to use that right and 152 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 3: organization wise, this is definitely where are you at moment 153 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 3: right Texans versus Carolina. This is a team that traded up. 154 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 3: Oh we're good, we just need the quarterback, so let's 155 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 3: trade up to get them. Everything else will take care 156 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 3: of itself. And they added weapons. You know, Thieln is there, 157 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 3: like we discussed DJ Chark is there. I mean, they've 158 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 3: got other weapons as well. It's just not working out 159 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 3: for them right now. So to me, I think that 160 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 3: it says a lot about the organizations going into this game. Now. 161 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 3: The Texans also got Will Anderson. They moved up to 162 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 3: get him. He's making plays as well. He's got some 163 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 3: of those sneaky stats. Maybe not the sexy sack stats, 164 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 3: but he's got the sneaky pressure stats among rookies and 165 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 3: things like that. You could build the case. It's only 166 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 3: six games in, and I was the first to say 167 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 3: about Will. When you compare them to how JJ Watt 168 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 3: got started, how Jadeveon Clowney got started, how Mario Williams 169 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 3: got started, you can't expect the world to be set 170 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 3: on fire at that position right away. And we've been 171 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 3: a long way to go in this season. 172 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 2: Anyway, I was talking to Sam Munson actually of PFF 173 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,679 Speaker 2: last week just as an aside about the pass rusher effectiveness, 174 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 2: And they had this whole formula they use, and I 175 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 2: was trying to nail them down because I'm like, all right, 176 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 2: so Will Anderson Junior has only one SAT. He had 177 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 2: it in Week one against Lamar Jackson. No sax sense, 178 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 2: but his like effectiveness. 179 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: Is a pass rusher. 180 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 2: You know a lot of people are talking about how 181 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 2: effective he is. Yeah, so I just trying to get 182 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 2: it from him. So if it's not sacks, Like, let's say, 183 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 2: I'm gonna make a formula because Johnny Johnny Dy and 184 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 2: I were kicking around the can on making a pass 185 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 2: rush effectiveness rating formula kind of like a QBR rating, right, 186 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 2: and I was like, how about we call it dp's 187 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 2: p R like Deep's pass rusher ate. 188 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: Dp p r R. Yeah, past rusher rating. 189 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 2: I don't think they were really sold on the name, 190 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 2: but anyway, yeah, the deperber uh so he so see 191 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,439 Speaker 2: him said, okay, sacks are the most important, but then 192 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 2: it's like very muddy the rest of them. Like I'm like, 193 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 2: is it hurries, is it pressures, is it passes defense? 194 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 2: And basically what I got from him was if you 195 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 2: can win your one on one matchup every single time, 196 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 2: that's all that matters. And they watch the film and 197 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 2: by his account, Will Anderson is winning those matchups. Even 198 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 2: when he's sometimes double team, he's winning his matchup. 199 00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 3: He does get double Johnny was telling me, because Johnny 200 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 3: watched these nuances more so than he gets doubled. When 201 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 3: I'm calling the game, I can't possibly see that. Sometimes 202 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 3: it's obvious, but most of the time I'm watching the 203 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 3: ball right, so I can't tell if Will Anderson's getting 204 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 3: doubled or not. You know, I just know that he 205 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 3: didn't get there or there was some pressure, because sacks 206 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 3: are important, obviously, but just flushing the quarterback to one 207 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 3: side or the other. And sometimes the guy who gets 208 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 3: the sack is not the guy who really got the pressure. 209 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 3: Guy got the pressure, quarterback moved over bam right into 210 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 3: another player who happens to get the sack. Or as 211 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 3: a play by play announcer, I can tell you this 212 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 3: happens all the time. Somebody gets some low, somebody gets 213 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 3: some high, and sometimes I think that's a split. Right, Well, 214 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 3: I might say both names, but they ended up giving 215 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 3: it to the guy who got him low. Right, or 216 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 3: they gave it a split and I only said one name. 217 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 3: I hate when that happens, but the bottom line, I think. 218 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:47,839 Speaker 1: It celebrates first that's who they give it to. 219 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 2: You just gotta go out there and you gotta quickly celebrate, 220 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 2: like it Antonio Smith's theory or. 221 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 3: Gary Walker when they sacked Quincy Carter on opening night 222 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 3: of Franchise History. I'll never forget it. I didn't say 223 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 3: that thing's name, and he actually got credit for the 224 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 3: whole sack, but Gary got. 225 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 2: Him high and Gary celebrated. 226 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 3: I want to go back to that moment in time 227 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 3: and have that one again. There are certain calls I'd 228 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 3: love to have again. Yeah, I can tell I think 229 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 3: you said it well though. DP. It's are you winning 230 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 3: the matchup? Are you affecting the pocket? Are you pressing 231 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 3: the pocket and creating an uncomfortable situation with the quarterback. 232 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 4: I know you don't have this luxury because you're calling 233 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 4: the game, but we kind of do. And my eyes, 234 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 4: when when the Texans are on defense very often wander 235 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 4: and lock straight on what Willy Anderson is doing and 236 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 4: how he's matched up, and about eight times out of ten, 237 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 4: I'm just thinking, damn it that would be hard to 238 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 4: be an offensive trying to block that guy, because he's 239 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 4: so big, so fast, so powerful, with such an array 240 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 4: of moves that he's getting into the backfield so consistently, 241 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:47,679 Speaker 4: and he's not always getting a sack or a TfL, 242 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 4: but he's affecting things like we're talking about and making, 243 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 4: you know, making it so hard for that set of 244 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 4: offensive linemen to block him, and kind of making it 245 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 4: easier for everybody around him. You think, to baby, pick 246 00:10:58,240 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 4: up the play, get the play and get there. It's 247 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 4: it's been a lot of fun. When you could just 248 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 4: lock down on fifty one right before the snap, you're 249 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,599 Speaker 4: gonna see something fun more times than not. 250 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 2: By the way, I asked him your question, because when 251 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 2: he blocked the field goal earlier, like those back to 252 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 2: back games, he almost blocked one against Indie, but then 253 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 2: he ended up the next I told him how you 254 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,319 Speaker 2: were wondering, does it hurt your hand to block a 255 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 2: field goal? 256 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: We're how exactly what body part? He said it. 257 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 2: Actually, he doesn't feel anything, he said. Practicing volleyball with 258 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,319 Speaker 2: his sisters, he was always trying to block their shots. 259 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:31,440 Speaker 4: Oh, I bet, And. 260 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 2: So that is his training for Blatton We saw Miles 261 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 2: Garrett do it this weekend as well, but I thought 262 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 2: that was that's just how hard he plays on every 263 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 2: special teams, defense and whatnot. 264 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's fun to watch when I rewind the tape, 265 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 3: all right. I love watching some of the other guys 266 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 3: as well, Petrie operate, Jimmy Ward in that secondary along 267 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 3: with Petrie. I'm curious to see who's back this week, 268 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 3: how they handle the health situation. But the defense definitely 269 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 3: trending in the right to direction back to back games 270 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 3: allowing less than one hundred yards see that continue. If 271 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 3: you hold them under one hundred yards rushing, you're gonna 272 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 3: win this football game. I'm just very confident in that 273 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 3: number right there, besides not turning it over and things 274 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 3: like that. All the obvious, but I believe they'll be 275 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 3: able to get it done. This is fun now, you know, 276 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 3: like going into this game with a chance to go 277 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 3: four and three, if you are able to achieve that 278 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 3: a winning record this late, my gosh, heading into the 279 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 3: Buccaneer game at home. Yeah, and I think the fans 280 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 3: they're gonna be jacked up no matter what, but they'll 281 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 3: be extra jacked up for that one. You come home 282 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 3: four and three. 283 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 2: Okay, so you mentioned the run game, and we talked 284 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 2: about this a little bit with Indian Andre. So the 285 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 2: last game against the Saints, Singletary Pierce almost split carries, 286 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 2: which Andre was saying, he thinks that just was the 287 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 2: flow of the game, maybe that maybe it was part 288 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,439 Speaker 2: of the game plan, maybe it was maybe Singletary. 289 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 1: Just was just more effensive. 290 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 3: Is that what he said, Yeah, he. 291 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 1: Said he was. 292 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 2: I think they just he said, Bobby Sloak, I think 293 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 2: he just said our Danny Barrett he said. I think 294 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 2: they just sort of realized, hey, he's kind of the 295 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 2: hot hands. We're just keeping it Singletary. I'm curious what 296 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,439 Speaker 2: you think is gonna happen on Sunday against this run defense. 297 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 2: Will it be more of the same or are we 298 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 2: gonna see Singletary surpass Pierce and carries just be based 299 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 2: on what we've seen in previous weeks. 300 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 3: I think it'll still be a good number of carries 301 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 3: for Singletary, maybe split, and I don't know who gets more. 302 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 3: I think a lot of that depends on Oh so 303 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,679 Speaker 3: and so had a longer drive. You know, they carry 304 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 3: the ball more on this drive. They might end up 305 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,559 Speaker 3: with three or four more carries. I think they're gonna 306 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 3: split them. I don't want to say dead even, but 307 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 3: pretty evenly now, and situations call for Pierce sometimes maybe 308 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 3: red zone goal to go. You need the bludgeon guy, 309 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 3: you know, maybe on the longer field. I don't know 310 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 3: how they'll look at it. I'm just spitballing here with this, 311 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,319 Speaker 3: but I think Singletary's gonna get some carries. I don't 312 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 3: think Singletary. We're not going to go back to Pierce 313 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 3: gets all the carries or what was it the Atlanta 314 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 3: game where Singletary got none. We're not going back to that. 315 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 3: Singletary is going to get the ball. He's too good 316 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,079 Speaker 3: with the ball to not get the ball. And I 317 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,559 Speaker 3: think it's a nice change of pace to show the 318 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 3: defense different guy in the game, different kind of production. 319 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 3: I still think Pierce is gonna have some really big 320 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,679 Speaker 3: games and games coming up here. I don't think, you 321 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 3: know again, I'm not gonna shovel dirt on Damian Pierce's 322 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 3: twenty twenty three season. No way, He'll get more back 323 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 3: to where he was last year. I know it's a 324 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 3: different system though, but they'll get used to working together. 325 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 3: He's too good to be denied. Over the long haul, 326 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 3: he'll get. 327 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 4: His I still think it's very, very early in the season, 328 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 4: and I still think after about two weeks there are 329 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 4: people saying, what's wrong with Dalton Schultz? Why doesn't he 330 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 4: get well so early? And I think you're gonna see 331 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 4: games where Dalton Schultz is one of the foucai of 332 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 4: the passing game, just like we've seen Nico Collins have 333 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 4: some big games. How we saw Tank Dell. I think 334 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 4: you're gonna see the run games sort of figure itself out, 335 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 4: get better, and start to operate. It's two point nine 336 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 4: yards of carry right now for Damian Pierce. There's no 337 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 4: way in hell that stands. There's that number's got a rise. 338 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 4: I am certain it will, and I kind of think 339 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 4: this Sunday, I think you're not going to see it 340 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 4: even split. I think Damian Pierce gets more carries. But 341 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 4: I'm with you. I do think you're going to see 342 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 4: a healthy amount of carries from Singletary, but just not 343 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 4: as evenly split as we saw before. 344 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: The bye against Atlanta. 345 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 2: That's when that's what you're talking about, Mark, where your 346 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 2: Singletary didn't have any carry, Piers had twenty carries for 347 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 2: sixty six yards. 348 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 1: Three point three yards per carry average. 349 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 3: And that was a game where the offense left the 350 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 3: field with the league, yeah, you know. 351 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: And then against the scene. 352 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 4: Yes, Damian Pierce was excellent on that final drive when 353 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 4: it was almost part of that. It was almost all 354 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 4: Damian Pierce with the past woods, the touchdown to Schultz, 355 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 4: and the rest of it was all Damian Pierce running 356 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 4: the ball with a few receptions. 357 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 2: It seemed like we saw the sort of the opposite 358 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 2: happening against the Saints where Singletary was in there. Singletary 359 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 2: got hot and slow, just kept with Singletary in the game, 360 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 2: and then it's when it all evened out. It was 361 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 2: Singletary with twelve carries, Piers with thirteen carries, but Singletary's 362 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 2: selling it up with more yards. I wonder if that's 363 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 2: they're just going to play it week by week, maybe 364 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 2: every single week, who's got the high somebody's just seeing 365 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 2: the holes differently than somebody else. 366 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 3: That could be the case. That could be the case 367 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 3: for sure. 368 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 2: Maybe it's not predetermined necessary, like oh this is going 369 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 2: to be Singletary's game, or is we Pierce's game. 370 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: We're just gonna go with it and get a feel 371 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 1: for it after what is it The first drive is scripted, plays. 372 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 3: Plays, whatever. But it'll be interesting to see. I don't 373 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 3: think I'd even be shocked if Singletary is out there 374 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 3: first in some instances down the stretch this season. That 375 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 3: doesn't mean that they're not going to use Pierce a ton, 376 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 3: that doesn't mean that Pierce still can't get big yardage. 377 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 3: I just think they'll determine against what defense, what back 378 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 3: might do better, and then they'll just rotate from there. 379 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 3: It'll be a real interesting thing to follow how they 380 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 3: handle that, because clearly Singletary is productive. You know, Pierce 381 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 3: is Pierce, but Singletary you've got something with him as well. 382 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 3: He was the leading rusher for the Bills last year, 383 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 3: didn't pick up as many yards as it wasn't a 384 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 3: thousand yard season. Put it that way, and Josh Allen 385 00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 3: figures heavily into their running game production in buffer, but 386 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 3: that cannot be ignored, and what he's done so far 387 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 3: here cannot be ignored either. They're going to use both guys. 388 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,440 Speaker 2: How about the fact that this team is the healthiest 389 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 2: it's been since even Week one. 390 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 1: It's like you're getting take Dell back. 391 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 2: You've got both of your tackles, although I guess we're 392 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 2: calling Titus a guard right now. But you've got Tunsel, 393 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,239 Speaker 2: You've got Howard, You've got Dell, and you might get 394 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 2: somebody else back before the week is over as well. 395 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 4: Well. 396 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 3: It'll be interesting with Derek Stingley Junior. When is he 397 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 3: going to come back? When is he going to be 398 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 3: available for this team? Because you need him. I know 399 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 3: people are saying Shaq, Shaquille Griffin playing well, doing well 400 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 3: he is, which. 401 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 1: He is, even Nelson out of his mind. 402 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 3: I won't take anything away from him, but we've seen 403 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 3: you need that depth because Shaq had to miss a 404 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 3: game and you saw what that meant. So you need 405 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 3: Stingley back and we'll see when they can get them. 406 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 3: But I kind of felt that way early on when 407 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 3: they were having some injury issues, and injury issues are 408 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 3: always going to be a thing with NFL teams, but 409 00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:58,640 Speaker 3: early on, when they had a lot of them, I thought, 410 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 3: you know what, maybe it's the worst thing in the 411 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 3: world to get some of these guys back as the 412 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:06,400 Speaker 3: season flows, because it's a long campaign and you're gonna 413 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:09,200 Speaker 3: have to plug and play with certain individuals as you go, 414 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 3: and eleven games left, I mean, we had the buy 415 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 3: it feels like a halfway point of sorts. It's not 416 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 3: even close to that. It's a one third point basically. 417 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 3: So you take it from here. 418 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 4: And if Stingley is back and playing the way he 419 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 4: played before the injury, that's a big shot in the 420 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 4: arm for your defense. And the defense is playing decently, 421 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 4: you know, like, that's a huge shot in the arm 422 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 4: getting that caliber of a cornerback back with your defense. 423 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 3: I want Ridgeway back too, that's big if you're stopping 424 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,120 Speaker 3: them running. Oh yeah, if you can get him back 425 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 3: on the d line, because again, you get real thin 426 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:42,640 Speaker 3: up there in a hurry. If one of those guys 427 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 3: gets hurt on the interior. 428 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 2: You just imagine the confidence this seam would have when 429 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,680 Speaker 2: you start getting some of you some of those guys back, 430 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 2: because you've already been able to string together some nice 431 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 2: wins without them. 432 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 3: Yeah. It's it's a strange league, though, that is always 433 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 3: evident to me as I sit down on my couch 434 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 3: surgically attached to it during a bye weekend, Retina's burning 435 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 3: from watching so much football, college and pro and I'm 436 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 3: thinking this league is absolutely nuts that the forty nine 437 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 3: ers can lose twice in a row. When you thought 438 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 3: there's no way they're gonna lose to Cleveland and Minnesota. 439 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:19,640 Speaker 3: I mean, you would have bet your house that they're 440 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 3: not gonna lose both those games. But they did, and 441 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 3: here they are and no one's burying them. It's just 442 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 3: a rough spot for them. But again, in the ebb 443 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,639 Speaker 3: and flow of a seventeen game schedule, you're gonna get this. 444 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 1: How about the Patriots winning? 445 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 3: That would being bizarre? 446 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: What is going on with the Bills? 447 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 3: Unforgivable Buffalo? How dare you? How dare you? Don't you 448 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 3: know who you are? Don't you know who they are? 449 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 3: They are your colts. It's way worse than the Colts 450 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 3: are to the Texans, the Patriots to the Bills. The 451 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 3: Patriots had the reign of terror. This is they are 452 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,680 Speaker 3: Darth Vader and the Evil Empire for two decades and 453 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 3: you're finally free of them to a degree, and you 454 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,119 Speaker 3: left them. Do that to you? How can you go 455 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 3: in there flat it's New England. Crush them. I don't 456 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 3: care how bad you think they are. You must crush 457 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 3: them every time you see them, but you know what, 458 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 3: it's the Patriots and the Bills, and the Patriots. You 459 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 3: can't you can't overlook them, can't overlook anybody. 460 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: I really thought the Bills are gonna bounce back too. 461 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,399 Speaker 2: I mean they lost to the Jags, yeah in London, 462 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 2: and you think, Okay, they're gonna come back and. 463 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 1: Get it together. 464 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 3: They barely beat the Giants at home in a primetime game. Right, 465 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 3: the Bills are a little shaky. So who's really great? 466 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 3: The Chiefs are really great. They win a lot of 467 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 3: close games too. They put up some points against the Chargers, 468 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 3: but everybody scores against the Chargers. The Chiefs had a 469 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,360 Speaker 3: lot of low scoring wins. They beat the Jags seventeen 470 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 3: to nine, seventeen to nine a week before the Texans 471 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 3: put thirty plus on the Jet. 472 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: Now was that pre Taylor Swift? Because do you sell 473 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:50,479 Speaker 1: the graphic? 474 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 4: Right? 475 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:51,360 Speaker 3: Who? Wait? 476 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 4: Wait? Who is great? Then you got the Chiefs. I 477 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 4: was gonna say the Dolphins before. 478 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 3: No, they're not great. They're calling them a flag football 479 00:20:58,480 --> 00:20:59,400 Speaker 3: team right now. 480 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 4: The Eagles. 481 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 3: I think the Eagles are really good. They are good. 482 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 3: You know, their quarterback Jalen Hurts is such a stud. 483 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 3: But they lost to the Jets the week. 484 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 4: Before, yest time ever in France, like they'd never lost 485 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 4: the Jets before. 486 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 3: I guess they don't play them much though still, though still, 487 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 3: it is funny, weird. I mean, the Jets have been 488 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 3: around since nineteen sixty as the New York Titans. That's right, kids, 489 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 3: the New York Titans was the original name of the Jets. Really. Yes, 490 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 3: I could go on all day, but stop me now. 491 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 3: But the Eagles, I think, have this toughness about them. 492 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:36,440 Speaker 3: Jalen hurts the tush push. Floria was joking. They're the 493 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 3: one team in the league that doesn't have to go 494 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:39,959 Speaker 3: ten yards for a first down. If they go eight 495 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:41,919 Speaker 3: and a half nine, that's fine because they can get 496 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,880 Speaker 3: it on fourth and short with the tush push. Yes, 497 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 3: so they have that going for them. Aj Brown is 498 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 3: an absolute beast. He is phenomenal. He reminds me of 499 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,399 Speaker 3: Andre Johnson. He just does. I don't think he's as 500 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:58,120 Speaker 3: good as Andre Johnson, but he's super physical. He does 501 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 3: have good hands that have improved over the course of 502 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:04,160 Speaker 3: his career. And look, they've got a good defense. That's 503 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 3: tough man. Miami got out toughed by the Philadelphia Eagles. 504 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 2: I thought that people were going to I mean, people 505 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 2: were really high on the Lions. And then that Lions game, 506 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 2: which was the other game they were showing here. 507 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 3: I mean, what you know what that was to me? 508 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: Goose egg that they laid. They scored six in the 509 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 1: final quarter, but still. 510 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,919 Speaker 3: That was kind of you're not used to AFC opponents. 511 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 3: You're from the NFC, from the North. 512 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 1: The score translator. 513 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you come down you see Lamar Jackson. Yeah, 514 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 3: you see Lamar Jackson. You don't know how to deal 515 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 3: with it. That was one of those Look, we know, 516 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 3: we know what it's like to go to Baltimore and 517 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,200 Speaker 3: get your butt kicked. Right, forty seven points? Is that 518 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 3: what they put on the Texans that game in twenty nineteen, coming. 519 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 4: Up the bottom. 520 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 3: The Texans were hot, when the Texans were really good. 521 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 3: It's Deshaun Watson versus Lamar Jackson. This is gonna be 522 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 3: an awesome quarterback duel. And then you get blown to bits. 523 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 4: By the Rable game seg. 524 00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 3: And that's what happened to the Lions. I mean that 525 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 3: just happens sometimes. So you got a bounce back from that. 526 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 3: They got to figure that out. 527 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 2: I'm going to put Mark's uh the score translator through 528 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 2: some other games that we watched this weekend. 529 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 4: I like it. 530 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 1: This is a this is new because there's some there 531 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: were some really good games on.

That was great, but the Tina 557 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 3: Turner documentary was ten times better. As good as that was. 558 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 3: The Tina Turner Documentary made me love Tina Turner, not 559 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 3: that I didn't before.

You couldn't 585 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 2: play it anywhere else, plug it into the wall, or 586 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 2: have like eighteen no money. 587 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 3: I used to buy used cassettes to listen to music 588 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 3: back in the eighties and no money back then. 589 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 2: No, what you did, mark was you got someone else 590 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,359 Speaker 2: to buy the cassette and then you dubbed it off 591 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 2: of them and the next time you asked for a 592 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 2: different cassette. 593 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 3: For you put little scotch tape over. If you have 594 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 3: a cassette, you want to record over over the little 595 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,119 Speaker 3: holes so you could record onto your old cassettes that 596 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:51,320 Speaker 3: you didn't want to listen to anymore. 597 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 1: Things that kids are not gonna the kids. 598 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 4: Are not going to know these days is not common 599 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:56,360 Speaker 4: thing that people knew. 600 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,880 Speaker 3: No I did, though, gotcha? I was good? Yeah, because 601 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 3: all right, so my first demo tapes getting radio jobs 602 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 3: were on cassette. They were actually tapes, so I knew 603 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 3: how to do all this stuff. In fact, I found 604 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 3: my very first demo tape because my kid was going 605 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 3: through my cassettes. My ten year old, it's like daddy, 606 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 3: you know, he wants to play cassettes and check it out. 607 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 3: And I found my demo tape that I got my 608 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 3: job with in Clearfield, Pennsylvania, and I basically faked. The 609 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 3: whole thing is I had to pretend to be a 610 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 3: DJ and news reader. I'd done a little bit of sports, 611 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:29,159 Speaker 3: but that's all at the time, so it's like ladies 612 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:34,120 Speaker 3: and gentlemen. Yeah, it's really sixty over the top stuff. 613 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 3: It's crazy, but I got to put it on digital. 614 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 3: I got to save this stuff. Yeah, I was. 615 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 2: I was just thinking of our VHS collection because when 616 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:44,640 Speaker 2: we moved, my husband had the Rockets Championships on VHS. 617 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 1: And now I'm like, kids these. 618 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 2: Days don't have to record anything like the ass We're 619 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 2: gonna talk with the Astros, but Astros in the World Series, 620 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 2: like you could just pull up any clip, any highlight, 621 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 2: any game. You just watch it at leisure whenever you want. 622 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 3: Any It was like public utility at this point. It's 623 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:05,919 Speaker 3: like plumbing, where's the video, Well, it's on the It's 624 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:07,679 Speaker 3: on video plumbing dot com. 625 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: You don't need any VHS tapes for anything anymore. But yes, 626 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 1: back at the Astros. There was a Monday night game 627 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 1: on as well. 628 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 2: But the Astros which an end to a great I mean, 629 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 2: I feel like you can't even be disappointed that they lost. 630 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 3: You can be disappointed the way it ended. I think 631 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 3: it's very very nuanced. It's yeah, listen, I've been late seventies. 632 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 3: I was very disappointed with what happened. I was supremely 633 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,080 Speaker 3: disappointed that that was the team to which you lost. 634 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 3: That's the last to lose to that way. Would you 635 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 3: rather lose to the Yankees of the Red Sox than 636 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 3: the Rangers? 637 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 4: Oh? Absolutely, the Yankees of the Red Sox, absolutely, guys, 638 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 4: because of the city component, not just sports, the city component. 639 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: If Houston can't have it, none of Texas can have it. 640 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:58,920 Speaker 4: But right, but two World Series championships. Yeah, in my 641 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 4: like after I saw so much of this over the 642 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:06,359 Speaker 4: last forty some years. You've been to the LCS the 643 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 4: last six seasons, seven season. Excuse me, Yes, it took 644 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 4: the Rangers seven games to beat the very worst of 645 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 4: the Astros team since twenty sixteen. And I look at 646 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:22,679 Speaker 4: my twins. They're ten years old. They only know. They 647 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 4: can only remember ELSs appearances or better, that's the only 648 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,200 Speaker 4: thing they can remember. Remember. When I was ten years old, 649 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:32,680 Speaker 4: it was nineteen eighty seven. The only Astros playoff appearances 650 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:36,920 Speaker 4: I remembered was eighty six, a tremendous series, but they lost. 651 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 3: I don't remember nineteen eighty. 652 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 4: I don't remember. I was a three year I didn't 653 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 4: remember that. So like, they went, and they went in 654 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 4: the next year, I think, in that weird strike season. 655 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 4: But that's the only thing I remember. I was twenty 656 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 4: seven years old before the Astros even won a playoff 657 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 4: series because ninety seven, ninety eight, ninety nine nine they 658 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 4: got bounced. Yeah, you know, I think if you'd have 659 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 4: taken any of the Altuve Alvarez, George Springer, Carlos Correa 660 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,479 Speaker 4: or Guriel, if you took any of those five, plucked 661 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 4: them and put them on those late nineties Astros teams, 662 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 4: I think the damn breaks and that offense gets going 663 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 4: and they go a little deeper than they actually got 664 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 4: to go. So yes, I'm very very disappointed, but I'm 665 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 4: also like, eh, I don't think they're gonna win the 666 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 4: World Series. Anyway, these Rangers. So let's uh, let's go 667 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 4: Phillies or let's be Diamondbacks. 668 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 1: You know, next year games, I could see that. 669 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 4: I can see the Astros getting right back into it 670 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 4: with some health. 671 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,959 Speaker 3: Some movies they are loaded picturing all of that. Now 672 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 3: they need people to stay healthy, et cetera, et cetera. 673 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 4: Exactly. 674 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 3: I think this because look, if any if the Texans 675 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 3: were able to go to seven consecutive AFC Championship games, 676 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 3: I mean, forget about it, right, so phenomenal Super Bowls, remarkable, 677 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 3: it's they've hadredible. You cannot fathom being able to do 678 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,479 Speaker 3: that in any sport. To get to your semi final 679 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 3: round seven years in a row. I don't care what 680 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 3: the sport is. That's amazing, and I hope I think 681 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 3: people appreciate it most people. But I think a lot 682 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 3: of people don't even understand how rare and precious and 683 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 3: special that is, that this will eventually end, this run, 684 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 3: that you cannot sustain this look at well, oh sure 685 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 3: you can. Mark. Really it's hard, you know, I know 686 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 3: they have a great organization, great ownership, whatever, it is 687 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 3: hard to sustain that kind of excellence. The Yankees couldn't 688 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 3: do it right. I mean they had a great run. 689 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 3: Now the Patriots in football, they were able to do 690 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 3: it had the rare combination of coaching quarterback. What do 691 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 3: we have here coaching quarterback. Let's go right now. 692 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 2: It is if you compare it to in the football terms, 693 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 2: what the Astros are able to do, it's creaty. 694 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,240 Speaker 1: It is probably most like the Patriots. 695 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 3: Yeah. I think actually the Chiefs have it going on 696 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 3: right now. They're kind of similar to the Astros. And 697 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 3: the timeline is very similar as well when you look 698 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 3: at what Kansas City is doing in the NFL. But 699 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 3: I think it's very special. It's tough to win these series, 700 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 3: as we've seen after what happened Friday night and then 701 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 3: you get blown out at home two times in a row. 702 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 3: No one could have predicted that, but it happened. 703 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 4: That lineup of there seems so loaded the Rangers, whereas 704 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 4: there's a few holes in this Astros one. And when 705 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 4: it's still good though, that's really good. And when when 706 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 4: they pulled Scherzer last night, I left the room thinking, 707 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 4: here we go, Astros are gonna get going out. They 708 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 4: go out of the Rangers bullpen, and I come back 709 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 4: and I see they put Jordan Montgomery in their starter right, 710 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 4: and I just had a sinking feeling because that guy 711 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 4: shut him down. But then another indicator of how amazing 712 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 4: this franchise is over the last you know, seven years, 713 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 4: is Robert Flores. He's from this area. Yeah, he's a 714 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 4: big Astros fan. He's a national guy on TV. He's 715 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 4: been around the block. He had a tweet thread last 716 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 4: night and it basically was the seeds of the twenty 717 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 4: twenty three failure for the Astros are as follows and 718 00:31:56,720 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 4: he like lists all these these reasons they're a game 719 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 4: away from the World Series and he's deeming that a 720 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 4: failure failure. I mean, that's how good you've become when 721 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 4: you're talking about, yes, it's a World Series championship or 722 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 4: bust on this right. 723 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 3: Right, whereas many teams are so thrilled to get to 724 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 3: the wild card round and lose right just to make 725 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 3: the postseason. I'll put that in air quotes and other sports. Look, 726 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 3: the Texans are a completely different situation right now. But 727 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 3: if the Texans were to make the playoffs this year, 728 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:26,240 Speaker 3: that'd be monumental considering where they were right because the 729 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 3: Texans the last three years prior to this were similar 730 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 3: to the Astros and the early teens, right, losing one 731 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 3: hundred games a year, and then they were able to 732 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 3: build it up with good draft choices. Well, the Texans 733 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 3: good draft choices. Here we go. You know, now you're 734 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 3: finally seeing the fruits. You're seeing some harvest here, and 735 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 3: let's see where it takes them. So look, it was. 736 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 3: It was a fun run for the Astros, and you know, 737 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 3: now we move on to football rockets getting started. Fun 738 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 3: time in Houston sports regardless, I'm glad you brought up. 739 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 2: The playoffs, Smart, because I love talking about playoffs super 740 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 2: early in the year, and this is no exception. I 741 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 2: was actually thinking about you during this Colts Browns game yesterday, 742 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 2: because you hate the Colts like poison. But you know, 743 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 2: we've been we've been rooting for the Browns all year, 744 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 2: for the draft, for a better draft pick, and I 745 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:14,680 Speaker 2: feel like yesterday was the first time. 746 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 1: That Sunday, Yes, Sunday, It's feels like yesterday dint even count. 747 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 3: Well in this studio, let's face it, this is like 748 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 3: a windows could Oh it's raining, really it's raining. 749 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 2: I have no idea anyway, So Sunday we're I was thinking, 750 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 2: like I think the tightest turn because now we're more 751 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:36,720 Speaker 2: focused on the Texans winning more games and getting into 752 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 2: the playoffs than worrying about next year's draft pick, which 753 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 2: is a really nice position. 754 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 4: I still want to get Colts to win, because I 755 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 4: think you can take care of the Colts this I 756 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 4: wanted the Colts to win. 757 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 2: I want that draft a draft pick, because whatever it is, 758 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 2: I'm going to get a great draft pick. 759 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 3: I changed my rooting interest or my level of disappointment 760 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 3: to satisfaction in the horse of that game, all right, 761 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 3: because of this, I think I understand where you're coming from, Drew, 762 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:08,760 Speaker 3: but I'm with deep on this one. That you needed 763 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 3: to hurt the Colts more than you needed the Browns 764 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 3: to lose that game. The Browns losing, hopefully that takes 765 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 3: care of itself. The Browns are gonna do whatever they do, right, 766 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,879 Speaker 3: But you have an opportunity here. Not that our rooting 767 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:24,239 Speaker 3: interest affects anything, because if it did, I'd be going 768 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 3: to the super Bowl. Yeah, it does impact you, and 769 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 3: you want to It helps with your enjoyment level or 770 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 3: black thereof in watching a game. So I'm watching most 771 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:35,279 Speaker 3: of that game thinking I want the Colts to pull 772 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 3: it out because I want to put a hurt in 773 00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 3: on Cleveland. But then I'm thinking, wait a minute, I 774 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 3: need the Colts to lose. They actually beat the Texans 775 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 3: this year already, you'll get them final game of the 776 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:48,279 Speaker 3: regular season.

Why 781 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,439 Speaker 3: did they do this? Why did they do this? Wait 782 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:10,879 Speaker 3: for a night game to break out the Indiana Nights uniforms. 783 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: The saw was bouncing off those matte black helmets.

There's so 785 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:18,760 Speaker 1: many things with those uniforms. 786 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 3: I'm with you. 787 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: I could could. You would have had a fit trying 788 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:21,840 Speaker 1: to read those numbers. 789 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:22,880 Speaker 3: Oh my gosh. 790 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,920 Speaker 4: I could have pulled it off with those helmets.

We roll on usually we go around 840 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 1: the NFL. 841 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 2: We've already done a little bit of that, but I 842 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,920 Speaker 2: definitely wanted to get to the power rankings that just 843 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:35,520 Speaker 2: came out today on NFL dot Com. 844 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:37,480 Speaker 1: The Texans did not play a game. 845 00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 2: But guess what, guys, they moved up with spot nice 846 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 2: through at number fifteen. I know different power rankings have 847 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 2: had the Texans a little bit higher. This is the 848 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 2: entire NFL. CJ Strouth fourth in passing yards per game 849 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 2: according to their recap, and right now he's on pace 850 00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:58,839 Speaker 2: for forty seven hundred yards, twenty five touchdowns and three interceptions, 851 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 2: which all right, so on, oh that's not gonna happen, 852 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:02,240 Speaker 2: but that's crazy. 853 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 4: Touchdowns and interceptions numbers. Both of those are gonna rise. 854 00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,839 Speaker 4: They'll end like the end product will be higher than two. 855 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, but so you think more like thirty and seven 856 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:14,239 Speaker 3: or something something. 857 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 4: Like that, thirty four, thirty four six? What record? 858 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,359 Speaker 3: I think thirty three might be the record. So it's 859 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,880 Speaker 3: thirty three or thirty four in the year twenty twenty 860 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 3: and watching that year, shab at forty seven hundred something 861 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 3: in two thousand and nine, Watson broke the record, but 862 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 3: not by much in twenty twenty, so that's close. That's 863 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,720 Speaker 3: flirting with the record. On pace guy says he's flirting 864 00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 3: with the all time texts passing record. But I would 865 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 3: take fewer yards and more running yards. And the same efficiency. Obviously, 866 00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 3: didn't Nick Foles go through a season with only two picks. 867 00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 4: I believe he did familiar his rookie year. 868 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 3: Like, I think there's a lot of possibility here, but 869 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 3: you have to, uh, you know, you gotta play these 870 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 3: games and see where it takes you. I mean, you 871 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 3: have games on the schedule that look quote winnable. Let's 872 00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 3: just put it this way. They should be able to 873 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:04,879 Speaker 3: be competitive with anybody on this schedule, and you see 874 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:06,320 Speaker 3: if you can make the plays down the stretch. 875 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,320 Speaker 4: I like that you rose in these rankings by a 876 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:10,279 Speaker 4: spot because the same thing you didn't play a game. 877 00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:13,399 Speaker 4: The same thing happened with turnover differential. I'd dork out 878 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:16,440 Speaker 4: and I send that we top of Texans entered a 879 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:19,840 Speaker 4: bye tied for third in turnover differential plus six, so 880 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:23,839 Speaker 4: it stayed plus six after yesterday and Sunday. Now they 881 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 4: go up to second because I guess somebody fell down, 882 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,760 Speaker 4: tied for second, tie for second with four other teams. 883 00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 3: I noticed that yesterday. You want a couple of other 884 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 3: ones that are nice, Okay, rushing defense sixteenth, which is 885 00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 3: nothing to throw a parade about. We're not going to 886 00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:42,320 Speaker 3: close down second. Yeah, you're always at the bottom of 887 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:44,879 Speaker 3: the league in twenty twenty, twenty twenty one, twenty twenty two. 888 00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:48,439 Speaker 3: Now your top half of the league crichnically, So that's good, 889 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:50,280 Speaker 3: and you want to continue to trend in that direction. 890 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 3: Because the last two games have been better against the run. 891 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,440 Speaker 3: Even though Bijon was Bijon and had some moments in 892 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 3: that game, you're still held the Falcons below one hundred. 893 00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 3: You held the Saints below one hundred rushing cards. Very nice. Indeed, 894 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 3: you mentioned Stroud fourth and passing yardage. Offense is eleventh 895 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 3: in yardage. Even though you haven't run the ball at 896 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:11,840 Speaker 3: all the way you want to, you're eleventh in offense 897 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:15,960 Speaker 3: yardage wise. That's nice. I don't have scoring d in 898 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 3: front of me, but that's not too bad either. So 899 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 3: you're seeing a lot of positives here, a lot of 900 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 3: positive indicators as they've won three of their last four. 901 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 3: Keep it going. 902 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:25,359 Speaker 2: How about the fact that, and I think you mentioned 903 00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:28,239 Speaker 2: this on Texan's Monday Mark Nico Collins is now first 904 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 2: in the NFL. 905 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 1: With yards per catch. 906 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:34,120 Speaker 2: Yes, he's averaging eighteen point nine yards per catch on average, 907 00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:36,480 Speaker 2: and yes, Tyreek Hill was just above him. But for 908 00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 2: whatever reason. Maybe he's caught some shorter passes lately. Yep, 909 00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:39,880 Speaker 2: filled a second. 910 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 1: Nico Collins is now first thing cat. 911 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,440 Speaker 4: And it's not like Nico's going and running these you know, 912 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:46,880 Speaker 4: go routes and catching these deep bombs. I mean, he 913 00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:50,799 Speaker 4: can do that, I think. But he's been catching intermediate 914 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,360 Speaker 4: stuff and then just blasting dudes after the catch, and 915 00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 4: it's been so much fun to watch. 916 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's yak yards tremendous. 917 00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's getting some yak And you know who else 918 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 3: is looking really good? Good as Tank del He's also 919 00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:02,560 Speaker 3: in the top ten in yards per catch. 920 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:03,719 Speaker 4: He's like a yard or two behind him. 921 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:05,920 Speaker 3: Get him back, baby, and see what he can do 922 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:10,120 Speaker 3: because he affects the whole defense. If you're a coordinator 923 00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 3: on that side of the ball, you're thinking, how all right, 924 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:14,920 Speaker 3: we got to account for him and then Nico and 925 00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 3: what if they throw to Schultz? And I gotta worry 926 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 3: about a lot of things here. And that's good. You 927 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 3: want that all right. 928 00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 2: Around the AFC South, the Jags are the highest ranked 929 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,839 Speaker 2: ABFC South team. The're at number seven. Colts are number 930 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:31,000 Speaker 2: twenty one. After the loss to the Browns, you mentioned 931 00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:32,360 Speaker 2: Minshew and his turnovers. 932 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:34,880 Speaker 1: He had four of them. And then the Titans are 933 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:35,880 Speaker 1: number twenty. 934 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:36,840 Speaker 4: Six trading Titans. 935 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:38,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, so what do we think of that deal? They 936 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:43,200 Speaker 3: traded Kevin Bayard. He's a fixture for them, a good player, 937 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,640 Speaker 3: they like him. He's gone, and then Florio went to 938 00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:49,399 Speaker 3: work this morning. Does this mean Derrick Henry is next? 939 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 4: So we'll see his game has been out there the 940 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,600 Speaker 4: last two years. Yeah, it's certainly good possibility. 941 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:54,840 Speaker 1: Like what is happening? 942 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:56,840 Speaker 2: You would think they would have learned their lesson a 943 00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 2: few years ago after trading. 944 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 3: Oh Aj Brown. Yeah, well, if they do this, we 945 00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:02,759 Speaker 3: read into this. 946 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:04,480 Speaker 1: Can we read into what's happening with the Titans if 947 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 1: they're treating I don't know. 948 00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:08,160 Speaker 3: About a Henry deal. The contract is pretty heavy and 949 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 3: I don't know what the price would be. Is it 950 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,760 Speaker 3: really worth it to them? Because if you trade Derek Henry, 951 00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 3: your season's over. I'm sorry. He is such a weapon. Still, 952 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:20,759 Speaker 3: the mere threat of him keeps that engine going. They 953 00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:22,560 Speaker 3: it's not like they have a young quarterback, and they 954 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:24,279 Speaker 3: do have a young quarterback and will Levis and they 955 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 3: still have Malik Willis, But where are they gonna go 956 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,280 Speaker 3: with that? How do they sell that to their fans, 957 00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:31,279 Speaker 3: and they're trying to build the new stadium right now. 958 00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,680 Speaker 3: I don't see them doing that, but as I say it, 959 00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:36,799 Speaker 3: who knows. I didn't think they would trade buyer art either. 960 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 2: And Tannehill out indefinitely with the high ankle sprain. So 961 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 2: they're already saying for Week eight Titans are going to 962 00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 2: face Atlanta. They're gonna prep both Will Levis and Malik. 963 00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:47,759 Speaker 3: Willis, and they're not gonna tell us who's playing, and we're. 964 00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 2: Not gonna maybe we'll know later on in the week, 965 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:51,880 Speaker 2: but we saw Malik Willis come in in relief when 966 00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:53,239 Speaker 2: Tannah Hill left on a cart. 967 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:54,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, two weeks ago. 968 00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:56,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know about this. 969 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,320 Speaker 1: I don't know about early to bust out Will Levis, 970 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:01,080 Speaker 1: I don't think So why not why not do it? 971 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,040 Speaker 1: You already know what you have in Malik Willis. Why 972 00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 1: not put Will Levis out there. 973 00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:06,239 Speaker 3: You haven't been too practice. You don't know what he's 974 00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 3: looking like. 975 00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:08,320 Speaker 1: I know what Malik Willis looks like. 976 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,319 Speaker 3: I know, well he beat that. You want to see 977 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 3: more of that completion last year, but again without Derek Henry. 978 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 3: If you're going to play either one of those guys, 979 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,840 Speaker 3: and you have to obviously, with Tannehill's injury, how do 980 00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,720 Speaker 3: you go into a game without Derek Henry. My gosh, 981 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 3: they've got Spears Haskins healthy. I don't even know, but 982 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 3: it's it's not the same. It's Derrick Henry. He's a 983 00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:33,800 Speaker 3: frightening player. Even Derek Henry not not being Derek Henry 984 00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:35,600 Speaker 3: of two three years ago is still frightening. 985 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:38,840 Speaker 1: If they do it closer, closer to the trade deadline, 986 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 1: I think it says. 987 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,400 Speaker 3: Next week, yeah, so they can go one more. 988 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 1: Game, but one more game and then say, okay, that's it. 989 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:49,320 Speaker 4: What is What about DeAndre Hopkins? Is he a trade possible? 990 00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:51,600 Speaker 3: That's a good question. One. 991 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:53,839 Speaker 1: I remember your two years. I mean, I don't know why. 992 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:56,239 Speaker 3: He's well, you know that, but for a team that 993 00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 3: lost a receiver that needs some help, you know, Minnesota 994 00:43:59,880 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 3: or something like that. Minnesota is three and four now 995 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:03,480 Speaker 3: after that victory of the forty nine ers. See, I 996 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:06,520 Speaker 3: think Minnesota is not bad. It's just that they've played 997 00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:09,440 Speaker 3: some games where they haven't executed down the stretch. I 998 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 3: think Kirk Cousins is obviously not an elite, elite quarterback, 999 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:15,680 Speaker 3: but he's a good quarterback. He moves the ball. I 1000 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:17,879 Speaker 3: think last night was something like his fifty ath three 1001 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,360 Speaker 3: hundred yard game. The guy's won some games. 1002 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:22,839 Speaker 2: He's gonna make it so hard for them to move 1003 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 2: on from him because he does just enough, yeah, to 1004 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:27,440 Speaker 2: give you some hope and to keep you interested. And 1005 00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:29,920 Speaker 2: then when the postseason hits this it's like the same. 1006 00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:30,279 Speaker 1: Thing every year. 1007 00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:31,279 Speaker 3: I was bad last year. 1008 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,440 Speaker 2: Every I feel like I feel I like love Kirk Cousins, 1009 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:36,319 Speaker 2: but just seeing his quarterback series on it fix. 1010 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,800 Speaker 3: Since we're bouncing around here, how about Tyrod Taylor with 1011 00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 3: the Giants and they beat the Commanders and he almost 1012 00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:44,080 Speaker 3: got it done against Buffalo on the road. I mean, 1013 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:48,000 Speaker 3: that's impressive. Considering when he came back for the Texans 1014 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:51,799 Speaker 3: and played against Miami in twenty twenty one, I thought, 1015 00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:55,000 Speaker 3: oh my gosh, he's done. He's done. It was a 1016 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,680 Speaker 3: nice ride, nice career, but he's done. He's a folk 1017 00:44:57,760 --> 00:44:59,880 Speaker 3: hero in Buffalo still because he brought them back to 1018 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:01,560 Speaker 3: the playoffs for the first time in forever. 1019 00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:03,400 Speaker 1: He's their TJ Yates. 1020 00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:07,279 Speaker 3: He's kind of sort of maybe not exactly apples to 1021 00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 3: apples there, but yeah, you're a similar They love them, 1022 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 3: They do love them up there, but you know he's 1023 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,360 Speaker 3: playing for the Giants at the time a couple of 1024 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:18,680 Speaker 3: weeks ago. But he beats the Commanders. And another example 1025 00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:20,839 Speaker 3: why this league is crazy. The Falcons do what they 1026 00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:23,520 Speaker 3: did to the Texans, late field goal drive win the game. 1027 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,640 Speaker 3: Ritter looks pretty good. The following week, the Commanders go 1028 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:29,640 Speaker 3: in there to Atlanta and the Falcons look like utter crap. 1029 00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 3: And then the Commanders go to the Giants and they 1030 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 3: look horrible. And then the Falcons go to the Bucks 1031 00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:36,479 Speaker 3: and they look good again and have a late field 1032 00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:38,719 Speaker 3: goal drive to win that game. What is going on? 1033 00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,440 Speaker 3: This is a crazy league. You cannot assume anything. 1034 00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:43,080 Speaker 4: And the Bucks are number one and turnover to French 1035 00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 4: roll in the NFL on ahead. 1036 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:48,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, so they are okay, okay, and they're going to 1037 00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:50,400 Speaker 3: be here a week from Sunday exactly tickets at Houston 1038 00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:51,160 Speaker 3: Texans dot com. 1039 00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:52,200 Speaker 1: Okay, that's perfect. 1040 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 2: I was gonna mention Kreem Jackson suspended for four games 1041 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:58,080 Speaker 2: for violating the league'suncessary roughness rules that places. 1042 00:45:57,840 --> 00:45:58,960 Speaker 1: Him at returning when. 1043 00:45:59,160 --> 00:45:59,920 Speaker 4: Against the Texas. 1044 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,880 Speaker 3: Bird against the Texas because this is how the NFL ruts.
