1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,760 Speaker 1: Welcome to everybody to a Monday edition of Texans All Access. 2 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:06,600 Speaker 1: So glad to be back with you after our summer 3 00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:10,240 Speaker 1: celebration last week. I am your host, John Harris joining 4 00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:12,680 Speaker 1: me to start the show, and it's so good to 5 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:14,239 Speaker 1: see her. Deep sit here, Deep you how you doing. 6 00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,840 Speaker 1: I'm doing fantastic, Johnny. We're two weeks away, just a 7 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:20,400 Speaker 1: little over two weeks away before we depart for West Virginia. 8 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:22,479 Speaker 1: I feel like we're gonna blink and it's going to 9 00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:24,600 Speaker 1: be here, and I can't wait. I'm actually really excited 10 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 1: about this season. I am. I feel like we've been 11 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 1: waiting for this season since in the middle of last season. Okay, 12 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: I as was the whole city once the entire roster 13 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,640 Speaker 1: seemed to land on injured reserve. Will you ever forget 14 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: where you were when you found out that Sean had 15 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 1: been injured? I know I won't. I was. I actually 16 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:48,919 Speaker 1: found out on Twitter. Well that's how I found too, 17 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: because we saw him at practice that day. Yeah, and 18 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 1: I thought this is and I it was Ian Rappaport. 19 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 1: I actually looked to make sure it wasn't the wrong 20 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 1: one because I didn't believe it and I had just 21 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 1: shot a show with the Colts media department we had 22 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 1: done sort of like a FaceTime Skype sort of a 23 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: show where we talked about Deshaun Watson. Andrew Luck had 24 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 1: just gone on injured reserve that day, so the whole 25 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,759 Speaker 1: show was about Deshaun Watson. And I know, like all 26 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,039 Speaker 1: of our everything we were doing that week was senator 27 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 1: around him because he was gonna play Indianapolis. You just 28 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 1: we did come off that Seattle game and it just 29 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,119 Speaker 1: seemed so surreal. I think it took a few weeks 30 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 1: where it to sink into everybody that usually Thursday is 31 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: a day of all days during the season, Thursdays a 32 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: day that I can I can get away and go 33 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: run errands, to do whatever, because Saturdays and Sundays are 34 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: just out during football season, like completely out. So Thursday 35 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,759 Speaker 1: I was I was picking up my daughter from school 36 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,679 Speaker 1: and I was sitting in line and I'll never forget 37 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: I saw the news. I checked the Twitter handle just 38 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 1: to be sure, and I'm in my car screaming as 39 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,919 Speaker 1: I'm texting, no, no, you and Drew and Mark please 40 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: tell me Sayson true. So I think from that moment, 41 00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: for if you remember going into that game, the Texans 42 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: were a favorite over They were fourteen point favorites, that's right, 43 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: in that game, and then all of a sudden, my kickoff, 44 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:09,679 Speaker 1: it was like one point favorite. It was kind of 45 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: a wash at that point because nobody really knew what 46 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:13,799 Speaker 1: to expect of either of the teams. But we did 47 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: go out to practice that day. We all only watch 48 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,119 Speaker 1: a little bit of practice in season, so it was stretching. 49 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: He was out there, so why yeah. Immediately thought, you 50 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: know what, this can't be right. He was out there, 51 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 1: he seemed fine, But it is what I'm glad. I'm 52 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 1: glad that's in our rear view mirror right. Hopefully we 53 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: never have to deal with anything like that again, or 54 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,639 Speaker 1: anything that happened with last season. But that's why I 55 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,799 Speaker 1: brought that up because from that moment forward, from that 56 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: moment that day that we found out, I already I 57 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: already fast forward to twenty eighteen because I started thinking about, Okay, 58 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 1: well he showed us in six and a half games. 59 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: J J. Watt coming back with you, merciless coming back. 60 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: At that point, we didn't know Deante Foreman, but obviously 61 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: all those injuries, but I started thinking about just those 62 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 1: three guys in particular coming back. Christian Comington got hurt 63 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: in Seattle game after playing pretty well, when hopefully he'll 64 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: come back. So I started thinking at that point, Okay, 65 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:10,519 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen couldn't be a year where it could be 66 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: really fun to watch this team, really really fun to 67 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: watch this team. So that's when I started looking forward 68 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: to it. But being two weeks in a day, I'm 69 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: I'm flying up on Tuesday to go up there, and 70 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 1: I'm like, do I have as everything ready? Oh my god, 71 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: I just I'm not. I'm not quite there yet, like 72 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: that part of it, like I'm ready for training camp 73 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: to get here. Don't get me wrong, I am so 74 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 1: ready for it to be here. I need football in 75 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: the worst way. But it's like to have all my 76 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: eyes dotted, my tea's crossed to make sure that I 77 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: can get up there and get up It's just so 78 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: many things going on, and my family's coming up there 79 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: for a little bit, so I gotta make sure that 80 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: every all my ducks are in a row. But that 81 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: does start to it does start to panic me a 82 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,839 Speaker 1: little bit. Like Okay, last year, when they weren't coming 83 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: up there, at least for the first couple of weeks. 84 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: It was like, just pack my stuff in a bag 85 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: and get me up there. And it was all new. 86 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: It was all new to us. We had no idea 87 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: what we were walking into. We did not know what 88 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: to expect. I like this year set up better, though. 89 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: I like that we're only up there for two weeks 90 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: and then we'll have practice in Houston, because I do. 91 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: I do miss the fan aspect of it. I don't 92 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: miss the heat, but I do miss being in Houston, 93 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: and I like that we do one preseason game and 94 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: we're out of there. Because West Virginia for three and 95 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 1: a half four weeks, it started to drag. I mean, 96 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: I know, everybody talked about how great the weather was, 97 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: and people in Houston were probably sick of us talking 98 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 1: about how great the weather was. But after a while, 99 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: it was yeah, I was looking forward to coming back 100 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,160 Speaker 1: to I was hugging all kinds of people getting off 101 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: the plane, and they thought I was crazy because we were. 102 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,479 Speaker 1: We were excited to be like and the thing about 103 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 1: it is it's a great location. I am really happy 104 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: to be going back. But you're right to go for 105 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. Couple of weeks is fine if 106 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: you have if you Texas, we'll be going up on 107 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: the twenty fifth. That's the day that they report the 108 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: report here, do their conditioning tests and do everything here, physicals, 109 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff. Fly up, start practice on Thursday, 110 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 1: and that's we'll have our first UH Texas training camp 111 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: radio with me and Mark in the morning, Dpo Beyond, 112 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,280 Speaker 1: Drew Beyond. We'll have all kinds of guests. Last year 113 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: we had Mike D'Antoni, we had the Governor, Jim Justice, 114 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: who was fantastic. We had NFL luminaries at NFL Media 115 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: on with us. We had all kinds of people on 116 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 1: with us. So we'll have all that. Well, Brian Gaine 117 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: on the general manager talk about the team as we 118 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: did have the general manager on last year. So we 119 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 1: have all kinds of stuff for you. That'll start on 120 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: Thursday and that that to me, that's like I love 121 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 1: that day. And it's weird though, because when we get 122 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 1: up there, we're on Eastern time and then they they'll 123 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: practice a little later, so our radio show starts and 124 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,359 Speaker 1: there's nothing going on. It's just market I looking at this. 125 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: You get to watch the defensive linemen and eventually, but 126 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: the first forty five minutes to an hour is just 127 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: you know us, you know, taking in the nice weather. 128 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 1: But it's just so great to be there at that 129 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 1: point and be set up and be ready to go 130 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: and know that football practice is happening at that point. 131 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: But that's that's in the review. So if you haven't 132 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: been followed too much, Texas will go up there in 133 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: twenty fifth. They'll be up there till and I believe 134 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: the game with Kansas City is a Thursday night game. 135 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: The game with Kansas City is August nine, right, so 136 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,239 Speaker 1: we'll leave on August eighth, head to Kansas City City. 137 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: We'll play the game at Kansas City, then we come 138 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: back here and then that following week they'll be joint 139 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: practice with the forty nine ers because the game, the 140 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 1: second preseason game is against the forty nine ers here 141 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 1: at an Energy Stadium. Then it's La, which that'll be 142 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 1: a fun trip. Yeah, that once Virginia to La. An 143 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: afternoon game in LA, which is a little a little odd. 144 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: You played at night, played in the early afternoon, but 145 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: I think it's like a three o'clock game local no 146 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: maybe no No No. Nine, it's a one o'clock game local time, 147 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,919 Speaker 1: but it's three o'clock here, So it'll be kind of 148 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 1: like it was last year, but that'll be fun. I mean, 149 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: I've only been La once and it was that one time. 150 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: But I mean, this will be a quick trip. It's 151 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: like last year. You stay in a hotel for a 152 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: night and then you come on back in. But I 153 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: do I do think that the training camp month will 154 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: go a lot faster because it's broken up so much. 155 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: It seemed like laster getting to that Charlotte game. It 156 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: seemed like it's an eternity to get to that Panthers 157 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 1: game after that had become home. If I think it 158 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 1: would have been perfect, it would have been five. But 159 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: I think the players, I think everybody was very happy 160 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 1: to get home. Yeah, I think so too. So looking 161 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 1: forward to that d you. You and I were talking 162 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: before we started the show about guys that are going 163 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: to be key at the Greenbrier and one of the 164 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: pictures sort of making its way around the internet. I 165 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: thought was was pretty interesting and also to see people's 166 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: reaction to it was one of will Fuller the filth. Yeah, 167 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 1: I'm actually going to write something quick, something so if 168 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: you're not on Instagram, you'll be able to see that 169 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: was his picture because I think you have to see 170 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: the picture to know what we're talking about. But he 171 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: posted a picture with Equinamius Equinomius Saint Brown. The two 172 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: of them played one season together at Notre Dame twenty fifteen. 173 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: I'm guessing because he was a first run draft pick 174 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: this year with the Green Bay Packers. So the two 175 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: of them are out there working out, and Wilfuller looks 176 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: noticeably bigger. He made a comment about it in the 177 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: caption as well, so I know it's something that we 178 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: had talked about with Bill O'Brien. Bill O'Brien has mentioned that, 179 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: you know, we gotta keep him healthy will Fuller, because 180 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: he's had the hamstring issues. He's very his famous slight, 181 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: so maybe that's just how he'll be. But it seems 182 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: like he's taken it upon himself to put on a 183 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 1: little bit more muscle, bulk up a little bit. How 184 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: will that affect his feed I think we'll find out. Yeah, 185 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 1: but you know, I think it's it's good for him 186 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: as far as his stature, because we've seen a lot 187 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: of the wide receivers over time sort of bulk up 188 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah, I think DeAndre Hopkins to me, 189 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: looks bigger than he was when when I first saw 190 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: him in twenty thirteen as well. Yeah, I think there 191 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: are It's interesting the Equanimius Saint Brown angle. If if 192 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: you're wondering Equinimius was he he's already pretty bad. Unfortunately, 193 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 1: what ended up happening is when Will went to the NFL, 194 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: Nick Martin graduated and that offense took a bunch of hits. 195 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: Ronni Stanley left or graduated, and so he went to 196 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 1: the NFL and Martin met the NFL Will Fuller. They 197 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 1: lost a lot of firepower and so literally that all 198 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: that was left was Equinimius Saint Brown at wide receiver, 199 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: and so he had a really good twenty six Dean 200 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 1: for the most part. With the Sean Kaiser in twenty seventeen, 201 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: it was kind of up and down, and so it 202 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: really didn't help his cause. But that wouldn't mean as 203 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: Saint Brown's dad is John Brown, and if you are 204 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 1: a bodybuilding aficionado, you know that John Brown was a 205 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: world champion, multi time world champion in bodybuilding, and the 206 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: pictures are unbelievable. In the late eighties, early nineties, I 207 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: believe maybe maybe his early nineties Biden nineties when he 208 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,199 Speaker 1: when his reign, Will working out with him, more than 209 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: likely working out with former world champion bodybuilder John brown Well. 210 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: Last year in training camp, Will actually broke his collar 211 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: brown the day that I left camp. I came back 212 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:42,839 Speaker 1: for a few days to take care of some stuff here. 213 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: It was my son's birthday. I had some radio stuff 214 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 1: that I wanted to do here and then get back. 215 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: So I took a little, quick, little break, and I 216 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: thought I should have never left, because I left and 217 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: we had all these injuries happened, and the receivers we 218 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 1: didn't see Will Fuller. I went back and it was 219 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: like Bruce Ellington. It was a whole new batch of 220 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 1: receivers that had shown up, which turned out well for 221 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: the Texans. But you know, to see Will Fuller go 222 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,839 Speaker 1: down like that, that was tough. Well. It's interesting because 223 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: the very first thing I thought about when I saw 224 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,839 Speaker 1: that picture was that collarbone injury. And when you think 225 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 1: about Will and you think about his slight statue, that's 226 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: that's the first thing that stood out was hopefully. You know, look, 227 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 1: collarbone injuries can happen to the strongest guys. I mean, 228 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 1: it can happen to anybody really, just depending on how 229 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: you land, where you get hit, how you get spun around, 230 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: how you can brace yourself, all that kind of stuff. 231 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 1: And to me, last last year it was Will went 232 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: up to make a catch and it was probably a 233 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: catch that Will this year and probably is a season 234 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: one on last year. He probably goes up and trusts 235 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: his hands a little bit more, but he tried to 236 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 1: body catch it and because of that he was he 237 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: kind of jumped higher than he should have as opposed 238 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: to just going up and snatching it up here. He 239 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: tried to body catch him. Because he did, he kind 240 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 1: of got undercut away you go. But when you see 241 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 1: him built like that, much stronger and obviously d people 242 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 1: put the story out on Houston Texas dot com. You 243 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 1: definitely want to read it. But you can tell that 244 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: he has taken at the heart and that's good. And 245 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 1: he's working. You talk about putting muscle on. He's working, 246 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,959 Speaker 1: probably with the best guy he possibly could and John Brown, 247 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 1: the bodybuilder who is the father of Equanimus Saint Brown 248 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: a former teammate at Notre Dame. So that's good, that's good. 249 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: I love the comments too. DeAndre Hopkins writes bodybuilder Will 250 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: Real J Joe's got the muscle emojis, DJ Reader, Aaron Colvin, 251 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: a lot, a lot of his teammates given him a 252 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,559 Speaker 1: lot of props for that too. Well. He's such a 253 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 1: key piece DP this year in that and we talk 254 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 1: about this in the broadcast. We talk about on and 255 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: off the air, the three of us Andre marking myself. 256 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: He's got the type of speed that is it's so 257 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: it's explosively smooth, it's you. You can feel like you're 258 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: running with him as a dB, and then all of 259 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 1: a sudden he's five yards ahead of you and they're like, wait, 260 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: where did that gear come from. It's like he's got 261 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 1: this other gear where he can just go buy you. 262 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: And we started to see that payoff last year, especially 263 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 1: with DeShawn And there were times that DeShawn missed him 264 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 1: that I think it was in the Titans game. He 265 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: had he had Will with about a yard on the safety. 266 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: He had gotten past the corner and the safety and 267 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: DeShawn missed him just barely. But he has that such 268 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: easy speed he could change the whole complexion of this offense. 269 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: Him being healthy in twenty eighteen and beyond obviously, and 270 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: it will be nice to have the both of them 271 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 1: on the field together, DeShawn and Will, because if you 272 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: remember when when Will went down, he didn't have time 273 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: to work with Deshaun Watson. It's like they were they 274 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: were working on the sidelines when Will wasn't one hundred. 275 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:45,680 Speaker 1: He was clear to do a few things, but not 276 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: practice with the team. So what little time they had 277 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: they developed what chemistry they had with Will catching all 278 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: those touchdowns this year in training camp and with the 279 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: entire OTAs behind us, I think they'll it'll be so 280 00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 1: much better for the both of them. It was four 281 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 1: weeks if you think about it was four weeks because 282 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 1: Tennessee first game that he was back. Yeah, it was 283 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 1: five weeks. Four games. That's all they had to That's 284 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,839 Speaker 1: amazing to think about. His catch to touchdown ratio was 285 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 1: pretty pretty nice too. The nice thing about it, I 286 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: would think for Deshaun too, is I cannot throw this guy. 287 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 1: We talked about that with Deshaun a little bit, but 288 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: I'd like to get him in a quiet moment and say, 289 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,319 Speaker 1: when you throw the bottle fuller, do you throw it 290 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 1: as far as you can? I mean, I would imagine 291 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: I would I just throw it as far as I could, 292 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 1: especially if I've taken my drop and I it's I 293 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 1: haven't gotten rid of the ball immediately, So I just 294 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: gotta throw it as far as I can and give 295 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 1: him a chance because he'll run and go get it. 296 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: There have been a couple of deep balls and as 297 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: I've seen them in the air, I'm like, there's not 298 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: a chance, and he almost gets to them right, almost 299 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: gets there. You add that element to this offense consistently 300 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 1: sixteen games. There's no telling what they're gonna be able. 301 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 1: And I think he's so important now. I wonder, Johnny, 302 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: if we see less of him on returns as a returner, 303 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,679 Speaker 1: because now you got Kiki Qt. You almost don't even 304 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 1: want to put him in that position to get hurt, 305 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 1: Keep him healthy, keep him your number two next to 306 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins, and then go from there. And now you've 307 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 1: built up your special teams, You've added all these other 308 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 1: players on special teams that you don't need to put 309 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: Will Fuller in that position. You know Will's in. Will's 310 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: not a part return In college, he ran one punt 311 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 1: back and I think that was a necessity, and that's 312 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 1: really what he's done the last couple. He's actually turned 313 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: into a pretty decent part returner. But I'm with you. 314 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 1: I think he's become too valuable in the offense to 315 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 1: even take a chance, especially if you have other guys 316 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: back there. If you have Tyler Irvin back health, You've 317 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: have Kiki Qt, you have a couple of guys that 318 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: have done it before and are comfortable doing it as 319 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: supposed to Will who's doing it, and kind of learning 320 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: on the fly where you know how he should go. 321 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: But there have been some pretty good returns he's had. 322 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: I think part of that is sheer speed, his speed, 323 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: his speeds and stop and stop and start and go 324 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: back the other way and find something. I think it's 325 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 1: gonna be fascinating. This just hit me in that game 326 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: against the Patriots last year, There's no there's no Will Fuller. 327 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: How will the Patriots go about covering Fuller and Hopkins 328 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: and all the receiving options this year. I'm I'm really 329 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: curious to see how the Patriots that game. I'm obviously 330 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 1: I'm excited about it. I'm nurous about the start off 331 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: the year, but I'm curious to see how the Patriots 332 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 1: attack the Texans defensively like what they do defensively against 333 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: the Texans, because I think they're gonna try and take 334 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: away certain things. And now I think if everybody's healthy 335 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 1: going in, we hope they'll have answers, they'll have responses. 336 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 1: Whereas when you took DeAndre Hopkins out of the offense 337 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 1: and maybe fifteen or sixteen, you didn't really know where 338 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: you're gonna go. Last year when they wanted to double Hopkins, 339 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: Sean fought found Ryan Griffin, he fought Bruce Ellington right open. 340 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 1: Now you add Will Fuller to it, right, that's a 341 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: good point. He didn't. They didn't. They didn't have to 342 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 1: cover him last year. No, didn't have to. And it's 343 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 1: a week one. So if everybody stays healthy through West 344 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: Virginian Training Camp, fingers crossed, that's gonna be a great 345 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: week one's fingers crossed.

It's like the first day of school 367 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 1: because in addition to just coming back from being two 368 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 1: weeks off, we're all in new offices in that we've 369 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 1: jiggled the offices, so I'm kind of unpacking boxes putting 370 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: stuff up and rearranging things. It's a different beast. So 371 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 1: I'm yeah, I feel like a dog walking on inside legs. Yeah. 372 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: And there's some things that are in our offices that 373 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 1: probably weren't meant to be there. And there's one thing 374 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:28,120 Speaker 1: in particular in your office, yeah, that it's about find 375 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: sort of fascinating. It's about a ten foot by eight 376 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:38,640 Speaker 1: foot basically whiteboard and it's got the Texans current well, 377 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 1: I would say depth chart as of like mid to 378 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,400 Speaker 1: late April. Yeah, and i'd say mid May, mid May 379 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:47,399 Speaker 1: depth chart right after the draft little little magnets for 380 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:51,159 Speaker 1: all the different positions. It's got their agents names on it. 381 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: It's got their height, weight, vertical everything where they were drafted. 382 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 1: You can put that on social media. It makes money. 383 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 1: I don't know about money, but i'd make some noise. Yes, 384 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 1: you would not know. I know, I know you are 385 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 1: and I expect you to be uh nothing. But now 386 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 1: speaking of company, many Mark vander Meer before while you 387 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,119 Speaker 1: were on vacation, and I actually was on vacation at 388 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: the end of that first week and then we were 389 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 1: out next week. Last week we had summer celebration. We 390 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 1: had a lot of great stuff. We played one day. 391 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 1: I played our entire in the lab from the the 392 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: draft that we did Texas of NFL players from Texas universe. 393 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 1: We got some interesting responses. Somebody, somebody sent us I 394 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 1: can't remember who the running back was Toinson. Now, somebody 395 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 1: else sent one and me, I can't remember who was, 396 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: but they sent one to me, and I just went, gosh, 397 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 1: I wish, I wish I could remember who was. But 398 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 1: they sent me the name of running back, and I went, really, Tomlinson, 399 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 1: dick Dickerson, Campbell, Oh, Ricky Williams. Yeah, Ricky Williams. I 400 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: was like, look, Ricky, you know, great running back, right 401 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 1: college running back. I think he had a really good 402 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:07,160 Speaker 1: NFL career. Yeah, but I think people are confusing though, 403 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 1: Like right, they thought and Ricky Williams, Yeah, you would 404 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 1: probably have to have him their college wise obviously, but 405 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: he's not too far behind those guys as as a pro. 406 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: But he's not. Ricky's not going to all no. I 407 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,679 Speaker 1: mean when Dickerson retired, he was second all times rushing yards. 408 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 1: Uh Ladanian Thominson. What Emmett Smith? Is that the only 409 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 1: guy that scored more touchdowns than him? Yeah? I mean 410 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 1: Jerry Rice and then Earl Campbell. He didn't have the 411 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 1: longevity of those other two, but he was just like 412 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 1: a comment when he played. I mean he he want 413 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 1: an MVP, so you definitely want to go check out 414 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 1: in the lab. Here's the other thing that I did 415 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 1: over the break per year suggestion, and I suggested it 416 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: to Bill O'Brien, so will test and see whether he 417 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 1: did his homework too. I finished Crime Town, Holy calis Providence, 418 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: Rhode Island. Yeah. I tipped my hat to the boys 419 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: over Gym and girls at Gymlet Media because this podcast Crimetown, 420 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,919 Speaker 1: as well as their RFK tapes I just started. I 421 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,360 Speaker 1: had to finish propped out first for those whole week Providence, 422 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: Rhode Island. First of all, that's where Brown University is 423 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 1: that I went to college. And you and Eric Son 424 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 1: of a Centio, our social media guru, said that I 425 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 1: should I should listen to this and you told me 426 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: and you were like, hey, buddy Sancey, and I was like, oh, 427 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 1: buddy used to used to come hang out at a 428 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,879 Speaker 1: place on campus. Well, we talked about that with Bill O'Brien. 429 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: He was like, yeah, it'd be a buddy Siancey, And 430 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 1: so it's fascinating because it goes, it goes in depth 431 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 1: with Buddy siance I mean, in the city of Houston, 432 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: you think about the mayors that we've had, think think 433 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:48,159 Speaker 1: think of Sylvester Turner and may and just think of 434 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 1: every wrong thing a mayor could do. That was Buddy 435 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 1: Siancey beloved by the city of Providence. And when I 436 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 1: got there, it was interesting because I got there in 437 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 1: the nineties and the big organized crime wave I don't 438 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 1: want to say comething end, but it was pretty close 439 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 1: at that point. But to learn about the city of 440 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 1: Providence prior to when I got there, but then to 441 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: see the things that happened when I was there that 442 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 1: I really just had no idea. No, I've thought about 443 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 1: you a lot when you were there during a lot 444 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 1: of this stuff going down, and it's it's pretty interest. 445 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: There was a big there was a run on the banks, 446 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 1: you like, and it's a wonderful life, you know. There 447 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: was when I failed. I mean, people lost all their 448 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: money and I'm not laughing at that. That's horrible. But 449 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: that went down that happened while you were there. So 450 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 1: what's what's fascinating to me is why those things happened. 451 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 1: And I think about I think about that, and obviously 452 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: once you got to once they tell the story of 453 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:47,119 Speaker 1: how you got there, like, oh man, a bunch of 454 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: crooked people. You find out, you know, things after the fact. 455 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:56,120 Speaker 1: I remember when California was having brownouts and then you realize, oh, 456 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 1: that was all because the people at end Ron we're 457 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: you know, we're doing and some shady things and causing 458 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,640 Speaker 1: the whole state of California, Like, oh my gosh, that 459 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 1: was a result of that. And so it was interesting 460 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: to find the why as the things that were going on. 461 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 1: So those are some those some podcasts you can listen to, 462 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 1: but definitely put in the Lab at the top of 463 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: the list. Now back to Mark Vandermbert. When we were 464 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 1: out that day, he decided to on All Access come 465 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 1: up with his top ten plays in Texans history. It's 466 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: a daunting task. Yeah, it's a daunting task. And obviously 467 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 1: he is called every single play of every single game. 468 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,239 Speaker 1: You got into building in two thousand and nine. Yep, 469 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,639 Speaker 1: I got into building a two thousand and fourteen. Started 470 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,160 Speaker 1: covering a team in two thousand and seven. So anything 471 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 1: to me prior to two thousand and seven. I'm a 472 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 1: little fuzzy on yeah for you, I know, be probably 473 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 1: two thousand and nine you followed, but it's probably the same. 474 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 1: I wasn't in it like I have been, you know, 475 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 1: I wasn't employed by a team, so it's it's kind 476 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: of moments. And I was living I wasn't living even 477 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 1: in Houston, so I couldn't watch every game. It wasn't 478 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: on all the time because it lived Analys and I 479 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 1: was living in Lubbock, and a lot of times they 480 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 1: wouldn't show Texans games and show only Cowboys games or whatever. 481 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: So anyways, you got stuck with that. Yeah, that's set 482 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:18,120 Speaker 1: show broncos a bunch. I feel like I feel like 483 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 1: there are a couple of missteps. Number one, this is 484 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 1: the one that stood out to me more than anything else. 485 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:25,679 Speaker 1: The top of the list for me, top of the 486 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 1: list for you. For me, there's no mention of Brandon 487 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 1: Weed and the Jalen Strong beat the Colts in Indianapolis, 488 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 1: And I think that's very very big and very kind of. 489 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 1: It made me scratch my chin because I would have 490 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:43,199 Speaker 1: I would have thought Vandermer would have had that in 491 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 1: his top five, because he harped on that time and 492 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 1: time and time again about the Texans inability to win 493 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 1: in Indianapolis, and then finally it gets snapped by two 494 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: guys who probably you know, aren't going to go down 495 00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 1: in Texans lore as as you know titan like JJ Watt, 496 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 1: Andre Johnson, etcetera, etcetera. Now, Brandon Wheeden did a nice 497 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: job and he's been perfect in his time as a Texan, 498 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 1: and Jalen Strong all he did was score touchdowns against 499 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 1: the Colts held killer. But yeah, I would have thought 500 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 1: that would have been in Vandermer's top five for sure. 501 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 1: I thought for sure the next year when Clowney had 502 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,160 Speaker 1: the sack on Andrew Luck, there's a play of the season. 503 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 1: I thought that the entire Texans team, that's strip sack. 504 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 1: I thought, I thought that would have made it. I 505 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:30,439 Speaker 1: was with you, neither one of those plays. Now you 506 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 1: had him, you had fault with number one. Well, I 507 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: did not listen to the podcast, but I like when 508 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 1: I saw him tweet it out. I saw him tweet 509 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 1: out that it's the top ten plays in Texas history. 510 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:44,120 Speaker 1: So I quote tweeted and said, the line forms behind 511 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 1: JJ Watt's playoff pick six, you know, and I just 512 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,400 Speaker 1: left it at that because everything after that that's first, 513 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 1: that's a that's it for me. I mean, his pick 514 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,400 Speaker 1: six will still be it's it's gonna take a lot 515 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 1: to beat that, you know, and I think it can 516 00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,719 Speaker 1: be beaten with the guy we got under center now. 517 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,119 Speaker 1: But the Watt pick six was number one for me. 518 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 1: He had the the T J. Yates to Kevin Walter 519 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: touchdown at Cincinnati to clinch the first plays. Very deserving, 520 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 1: certainly in the top three, but I still put the 521 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: Watt pick six ahead of it. Yeah, I would have 522 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: put the I'm with you on the WAT pick six. 523 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 1: I think the Wat pick six is definitely and he 524 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: I know, his argument is, well, the WAT pick six 525 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: doesn't happen with that, but you know what I mean 526 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 1: that you could say the Declaration of Independence doesn't get 527 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: signed if they don't have the right pen, you know, 528 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: I mean, you could say stuff like that. So I don't, 529 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 1: I don't I go there. I'm with you. And what 530 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 1: we did this is a couple of years ago we 531 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 1: did a bracket of the greatest plays in Texas history. 532 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: Love it. The fans chose J. J. Watts pick six, 533 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: and they're right as number one. Fans are right. They 534 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:56,159 Speaker 1: also picked I believe Andre Johnson's catch against Washington is 535 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 1: number two. That's not a bad choice either. Now. I 536 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 1: think the way the brackets set up, watts pick six 537 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 1: bumped out Yates to Walter, Now, listen that that plays 538 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 1: a top It might be number two to me, But 539 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,400 Speaker 1: I think you're right. I think number one right now 540 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 1: is JJ wats pick six. I think top ten plays 541 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 1: are coming over the next couple of years, and as 542 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: soon as one of those ends up being a game 543 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 1: breaking or game changing touchdown and a Super Bowl, that 544 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: goes to number one almost automatically. But when you think 545 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:29,720 Speaker 1: about the Watt pick six and everything that transpired after that, 546 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,400 Speaker 1: JJ Watt went from being hey man, this guy's playing 547 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: pretty well as a rookie to all of sudden becoming 548 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:39,160 Speaker 1: force that took over the NFL from that point forward. Yeah, 549 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 1: and you know, it's interesting you bring this up. Right 550 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 1: before the break, I did an event here across the 551 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,680 Speaker 1: street at the Houston Methodist Training Center with JJ was 552 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 1: a Q and A for about fifty sixty people, and 553 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 1: we talked about that play and he said, you know, 554 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: things kind of changed, but he said his better game 555 00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 1: that season was actually the next week against the Ravens, 556 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,159 Speaker 1: and if you go back and think about it, that 557 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 1: was a that was a defensive I mean it was 558 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 1: a pitchers duel basically, and I mean people won't people 559 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 1: will poop to it because it was too bad. Those 560 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,119 Speaker 1: defenses were tremendous anyway. I mean they and they were 561 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 1: they each had their fastball going and uh, yeah, you're right. Also, 562 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,880 Speaker 1: just in that game, Texans are kind of list lists. 563 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,399 Speaker 1: At that point, he scores, they take the lead, and 564 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: from then on it felt like a party, like a celebration. 565 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 1: The second half. Yeah, an Arian was great in the 566 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:37,719 Speaker 1: second half, but that that pick, and they NFL Network 567 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 1: during the break was running or actually I saw this. 568 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: NFL Network has it on their their app. Um with 569 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: game Pass, you can get different things in the game pass, 570 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 1: and so I have game Pass obviously, so I can 571 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:51,880 Speaker 1: watch all the different games and watch all twenty two 572 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:53,639 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. And so they had sound effects 573 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: and so I'm rolling through and seeing what they've gotten. 574 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 1: They had the best, they had the best of J. J. 575 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: Watt and it really was his rookie year through twenty 576 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 1: like like halfway through twenty fourteen. But the bulk of 577 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 1: it was like twelve and thirteen, but they showed that 578 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:14,479 Speaker 1: twenty eleven piece, and the thing about it to me 579 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 1: is it's such a remarkable play. If you think about 580 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 1: a defensive lineman he cut upping up, he caught a 581 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 1: fastball at point blank h I know, yeah, and then 582 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: of course racing the end zone and there was nobody 583 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: at that point I was gonna catch him because Dalton 584 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: was was was in behind the line and was getting 585 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: rushed from somewhere. But it's a phenomenal, phenomenal athletic play. 586 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: That's the thing. The thing we miss is that, yes 587 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 1: it we we have that photo somewhere in our building 588 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 1: of him scoring and he's celebrating. Yeah, and it's like, okay, 589 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: at that moment, thinks things really did change for him 590 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 1: because he came back in twenty twelve and was just 591 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 1: was unblockable. But the thing about it was, and this 592 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 1: sound effects, most of it was twelve and thirteen that 593 00:28:55,840 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: they showed, and it was fascinated to watch him in 594 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 1: twelve and thirteen, how quick he was, how fast he was. Yeah, 595 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 1: even if he gets to seventy five percent of that 596 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 1: this year, just just that and I think he will 597 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: be better. He gets to seventy five. Defense huge because 598 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 1: it changes the way quarterbacks and offenses are able to operate. Absolutely, 599 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 1: I mean I mean absolutely, And it's so much and 600 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 1: it helps your back end out so much more. You 601 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 1: pair him up with Clowney, you pair him up with Mercilla. Yeah, 602 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: I mean we're not we're not going down any any 603 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 1: road that we haven't talked about before. But yeah, it's 604 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 1: man that that play for me, It just that's number one. 605 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: I thought that play. It should have been number one. 606 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 1: I thought Jalen Strong, Brandy Wheen and Jalen Strong gets 607 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 1: the cults. See we weren't here to kind of write 608 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: him up his wrongs in some sense. But no, you know, 609 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: he is pretty stubborn, so he's I'd put those two. 610 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: I'd put the Drey touchdown at Washington, I'd put I'd 611 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 1: put the Walter TD. Yeah, and then i'd have h. 612 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if he'd had us in the top five, 613 00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 1: but i'd have either Seth Payne, Gary Walker sack to 614 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:02,720 Speaker 1: get quit car. Yeah, I'd probably put that one in there, 615 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 1: that that sealed the win in O two. Of course, 616 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 1: you know the Billy Miller touchdown. That's a settlement on one. 617 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: That's the first one. I get that. You understand that, 618 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: but that's kind of like getting the first hit, you know, 619 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: in a new stadium. I like the seiler, you know, yeah, 620 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 1: I like the Yeah, they delivered the victory. That's true. 621 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 1: I'm I'm more that way too, But you know that 622 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 1: that play Billy Miller's gotta be there. But I think 623 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 1: at the time, the time, since I've been covering since 624 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 1: two thousand and seven, the wat pick six, the Walter, 625 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: the Walter catch, the Drake, the Dre touchdown is the 626 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: one that I jump off my couch. That's crazy. That's 627 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 1: the one that I want, absolutely berserk and crazy. Um. 628 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 1: I was trying to think, is there an Arian Foster 629 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: moment in there? But I don't know if there's a 630 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 1: particular play. The one I remember is the rush he 631 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: had against the Bengals where he's going on the sideline 632 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: pushing the guy Chris Crocker. He just shoves him out 633 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,000 Speaker 1: of the way. That's a great one, but that that 634 00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 1: was more. That was more kind of the the ice 635 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,600 Speaker 1: on the cake. Yeah, and not not the finishing move. 636 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 1: I finishing move had already been they'd already been landed 637 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 1: early in that game with JJ's pick six. One of 638 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 1: my favorites of arians all time was the touchdown catch 639 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 1: he had at Chicago, because yes, both those teams were 640 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: seven to one going onto Sunday Night football, and I 641 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 1: think that was the only touchdown scored in the game. 642 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 1: Another defensive you know, slugfest, but uh yeah, that was 643 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: that was a heck of a catch and he stadium 644 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 1: bounds and that would have gathered the ball. And that 645 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: was a big, big play. That's about one qualm. But 646 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: not having JJ number one with that play that picks 647 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: six and then no mention the two Colts road games, 648 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 1: I would have I would have sworn he would have 649 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:43,080 Speaker 1: put those in there. I would have sworn. But then again, 650 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: pretty pretty good job. I give him a B plus. Yeah, 651 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: it's Vandermer. He's he gets he gets that passed because 652 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 1: he's been here since the beginning. No, you're right about that, 653 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 1: Drew appreciated brother anytime.

It's the thing's going on today. 656 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 1: Actually break those down going around the league.

So excited for a training 666 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: camp to take place. So much going on. It's fun 667 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 1: to break down the greatest plays in team history. I'll 668 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: tell you what one play that will never be at 669 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:13,840 Speaker 1: the top of that list. It was funny because Drew 670 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,280 Speaker 1: and I actually talked about that Ravens playoff game in 671 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 1: twenty eleven. I was doing an actual radio show at 672 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 1: the time, and that that night going on into early 673 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: morning Monday. It was my first show back on the 674 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 1: air after the weekend, and of course it was after 675 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 1: the Texans had lost that game to the Ravens and 676 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:35,560 Speaker 1: one of my it actually became kind of a kind 677 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 1: of an audio meme, if you will, because if you 678 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 1: remember that game, unfortunately, Jacobe Jones headbutted a punt. Texas 679 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 1: had gone on scored stop. The Ravens were getting the 680 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: ball back and Jacoby decided to fuel the ball inside 681 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 1: the five ten yard line and I lost it. I 682 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:54,959 Speaker 1: lost it because the game turned right there. The Ravens 683 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 1: I think, then scored like three to the next four drives, 684 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 1: and that was that essentially gave them enough space that 685 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 1: they could play the way they wanted to play that year. 686 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 1: They weren't they weren't gonna blow you out of the 687 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 1: water with the offense, but they had enough space. They 688 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: kind of keep texting the bay and the Texas obviously 689 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 1: got back in it. And it's a fascinating second half 690 00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:18,399 Speaker 1: to watch it because the defenses are just incredible. But 691 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: in that game, obviously Jacoby Jones has that that will 692 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: go down in one of the top ten worst plays. 693 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 1: Never been a few of those. Rosen Copter, that's one. 694 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: I can think of, the Hill Mary pass in twenty Yeah, 695 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 1: we did the worst. I don't even I don't even 696 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 1: to go down that, but I bring up Jacoby Jones 697 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 1: because of this. Last night, I was on NFL Network 698 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 1: and I was watching the new a f f L. 699 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:52,280 Speaker 1: The American Flag Football League, and it it was almost 700 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,279 Speaker 1: almost mesmerizing. I spent most of the time trying to 701 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:58,960 Speaker 1: figure out which players were out there and who they were, 702 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:00,880 Speaker 1: and oh yeah, I remember him, and oh yeah I 703 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 1: remember him. So as the game is going on and 704 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 1: Godspeed is playing hold At, they came up with the 705 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 1: names god Speed head quarterbacks Seneca Wallace, Jason Avant wide 706 00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 1: receiver Charles James played on that team as well. And 707 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 1: so as I'm watching, I see this what looks to 708 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 1: be kind of a tight end type go across the 709 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 1: formation and I'm like, well, you know, I didn't hear 710 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 1: the guy at first, And then when they did the replayer, 711 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 1: They're like, yeah, Jacoby Jones went in motion. I'm like, 712 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 1: oh my god, that's Jacobe Jones. Jacoby Jones and Charles 713 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,839 Speaker 1: James playing on the same team, the Godspeed team led 714 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:39,320 Speaker 1: by Seneca Wallace, who has been fabulous. They that was 715 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 1: so much fun to watch them play. And Seneca was 716 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 1: dealing and then he was running. He was outstanding. The 717 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: other player who made a mark in the American Flag 718 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 1: Football League Flag Football League, yeah, was Grog Johnson. Now 719 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 1: Drow somebody I've gotten to know over the last few years. 720 00:35:56,360 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 1: You'd heard him on sport Trade of sixteenth. He they 721 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 1: I'm trying. He is on the team with Oto Sinko, 722 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 1: with Chad Johnson. They beat Michael Vick's team. And the 723 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 1: way they've got to set up. They had four four 724 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 1: former professional teams, so guys had played in the league before. 725 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 1: So Michael Vick, TODs Boyd, Jason Avaunt, wide receiver, Kobe Jones, 726 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:20,759 Speaker 1: a number of players names that you would recognize. Job 727 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 1: at Best, who played, was a first round draft pick 728 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 1: of the Lions in twenty ten, the same year Kream 729 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,839 Speaker 1: Jackson was first round the Texans. Job at Best, at 730 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:31,400 Speaker 1: the bottom of that round, was taken and selected by 731 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions. Concussions and head injuries forced him to 732 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 1: step away from the game. He had a couple of 733 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 1: bad hits, one at the end of his career in 734 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:41,200 Speaker 1: cal and then one in the league. Maybe a couple 735 00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:42,879 Speaker 1: of them in the league, and he had to step 736 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 1: away from the game early. He was outstanding. They were outstanding, 737 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:50,239 Speaker 1: but Seneca Wallace was leading the team. Godspeed Overhauld that 738 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 1: it is outstanding.

Went to A and M has been 746 00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 1: a round the league for a while. You talk about 747 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,760 Speaker 1: a smart dude, I expect Row Johnson to be coaching, 748 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:24,759 Speaker 1: if not playing in the league. At some point I 749 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: wish you would get another shot. Well somebody would give 750 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 1: him another shot, but it just hasn't come. But the 751 00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 1: American Flag Football League is those four teams and the 752 00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:34,439 Speaker 1: ones they've had an NFL network have been the games 753 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 1: between the former pros.

It's 784 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,719 Speaker 1: so much fun to watch. All right, let's get to 785 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 1: some things around the league. This one happened last Monday, 786 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:24,279 Speaker 1: and I thought about whether I should actually drive back 787 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:27,960 Speaker 1: into the building to talk about this, and I thought, well, 788 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:29,919 Speaker 1: we'd already kind of talked about this, and it really 789 00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 1: was just the appeal. But Julian Edelman lost his appeal 790 00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 1: to the league. He will serve that four game suspension 791 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:41,720 Speaker 1: up front for the Patriots now later today, if not tomorrow, 792 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,600 Speaker 1: I think it's actually gonna be tomorrow. My know, your 793 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 1: Foe series is gonna be coming out. I'll do a 794 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 1: breakdown of all the opponents in chronologic order, so the 795 00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:52,839 Speaker 1: Patriots will come up first. They'll be the first one. 796 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,840 Speaker 1: And I did that, Yes, I did that during a 797 00:39:56,600 --> 00:40:00,359 Speaker 1: break looking at the Patriots, and then the edelment stuff broke, 798 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:05,360 Speaker 1: and I wrote that assuming that the appeal would would 799 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:09,239 Speaker 1: be denied, and I started thinking about, man, the Patriots, 800 00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:14,879 Speaker 1: no Cooks, no Edelman, no Amandola. And you think about 801 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 1: the receivers that Brady's gonna be thrown to that day, 802 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 1: Jordan Matthews new to the team, Philip Dorsett, who has 803 00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,239 Speaker 1: really been a bust, if you will, just kind of 804 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:28,040 Speaker 1: a bit player with the Patriots after being traded there 805 00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:32,400 Speaker 1: for Jacoby Brissette. You've got Chris Hogan. Obviously he's gonna 806 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 1: be the man for a wide receiver standpoint. But other 807 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,719 Speaker 1: than that, Cordill Patterson. One of the problems with the 808 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings was that Patterson could never learn the offense. 809 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 1: That was one of the biggest problems of him getting 810 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,840 Speaker 1: on the field. So he can't learn the offense in Minnesota, 811 00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:49,840 Speaker 1: how's he gonna learn it in New England's very complex, 812 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,720 Speaker 1: so that's gonna be a major issue. So he's throwing 813 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:55,719 Speaker 1: to those guys. And then of course he's got his 814 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:57,360 Speaker 1: running backs. Now, one of those running backs is going 815 00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 1: to be a new he's rookie' Sony Michelle. But Julian 816 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,360 Speaker 1: Edelman's appeal was denied last Monday, and that means that 817 00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:05,920 Speaker 1: Edelman will not only miss the Texans game, but he 818 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:10,840 Speaker 1: will also miss the rematch of the AFC Championship against 819 00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:16,719 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars two games. Look or he gets suspensions 820 00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:20,320 Speaker 1: for four games. But missing those two key games, Texans 821 00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 1: pull off the upset up in New England. Jaguars get 822 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:27,439 Speaker 1: to win. That knocks the Patriots down to two and two. 823 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:31,640 Speaker 1: Maybe that best to start without Edelman. It would be nice, 824 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 1: It would be nice. It would nice. It would be 825 00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 1: nice to see the Patriots have to go on the 826 00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:41,200 Speaker 1: road at some point, at some point in the playoffs, 827 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:43,759 Speaker 1: to have to try and defend everything. Every time that 828 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 1: they've gone to the Super Bowl, with the exception of 829 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:53,680 Speaker 1: OH four in OH one, I think every other time 830 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 1: it has gone through New England, if I if I 831 00:41:57,080 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 1: remember correctly, twenty eleven it did, twenty fourteen, did twenty sixteen, 832 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,880 Speaker 1: it did, twenty seventeen, it did every time they went 833 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:06,080 Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl, it was going through New England. 834 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:08,839 Speaker 1: Especially in the last the last few years, it's gone 835 00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:12,839 Speaker 1: through New England. So get them away from New England. Now. 836 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 1: It's not as if they haven't won and you haven't 837 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:17,120 Speaker 1: gone in Super Bowl. But those are early, those are 838 00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:21,040 Speaker 1: early in the Brady years. They wanted a one at Pittsburgh. 839 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 1: They won in oh four at Pittsburgh and that's the 840 00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:28,200 Speaker 1: only place they won on the road to get to 841 00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:30,440 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl if if my math is correct, they 842 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:32,440 Speaker 1: lost in Denver a couple of years ago. So get 843 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 1: the Patriots on the road be kind of nice, but 844 00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:35,880 Speaker 1: you need some help from the AFC East to be 845 00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:38,480 Speaker 1: able to do that. Now, maybe the Jets can provide 846 00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:42,240 Speaker 1: some help. Found this one interesting. Josh McCown was asked 847 00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 1: about Sam Donald draft picked by the Jets. Is a 848 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:50,240 Speaker 1: great article in MMQB about Sam Donald and the Jets 849 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:52,880 Speaker 1: pursuit of Sam Donald and that Mike mccagnet used to 850 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 1: be with the Texans, he knew all along that Sam 851 00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 1: Donald was his guy. Well, Josh McCown, who's fighting for 852 00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 1: a time with Sam Donald, and also Tay Bridgewater, says, 853 00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:05,919 Speaker 1: oh yeah, with Sam, we have the right guy. Now. 854 00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:08,760 Speaker 1: The Texas don't play the Jets till later in the season, 855 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 1: middle of December. My guest is Sam Donald will be 856 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:14,799 Speaker 1: the starting quarterback. The question for the Jets is when 857 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:18,080 Speaker 1: does Sam Donald become the starting quarterback? I would think 858 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:22,800 Speaker 1: second week in December, absolutely, second week in September. That 859 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,759 Speaker 1: might be literally considering what they've gotten Bridgewater and what 860 00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:28,239 Speaker 1: they've got in Josh McCown. But I would imagine at 861 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:30,760 Speaker 1: some point they gotta flip it over to Sam Donald 862 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:34,680 Speaker 1: to see whether Josh McCown is right, that Sam Donald 863 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:38,880 Speaker 1: is the right guy for that organization. DeMarco Murray is 864 00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:42,920 Speaker 1: still out there, an interesting no longer a Titan. The 865 00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:44,839 Speaker 1: Titans decided to go with Derrick Henry and then signed 866 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:48,600 Speaker 1: Dion Lewis. Now Murray a little long in the tooth. 867 00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 1: Had a great twenty sixteen with Tennessee. Twenty seventeen not 868 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:56,319 Speaker 1: as great, ran in some injury issues, but still out 869 00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 1: there on the market. And if I'm him, I wait 870 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 1: at this point, wait until you get the training camp 871 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 1: and wait for teams running back to you know, running 872 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:07,080 Speaker 1: back that they think is gonna be available not available. 873 00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:09,680 Speaker 1: Maybe the depth chart isn't what they think it's gonna be. 874 00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:12,800 Speaker 1: Could that be in Houston? Maybe? I don't know. I 875 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:16,920 Speaker 1: wouldn't think so. But DeMarco Murray first year in a 876 00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:20,839 Speaker 1: spot Dallas, very good. Now Philadelphia, I just write that off. 877 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:22,960 Speaker 1: That was a horrible That was that was horrible for 878 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:26,319 Speaker 1: Murray on so many different levels. Tennessee first year very 879 00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:30,360 Speaker 1: very good. Could he summon that up in one year someplace? 880 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 1: I would I would imagine he could do that. I 881 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 1: don't know that Texas would be in a market for 882 00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 1: a running back unless they think that Deante Foreman is 883 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 1: not going to be able to make it back sooner 884 00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:44,719 Speaker 1: than later. And my hope, I hope, and I think 885 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:46,399 Speaker 1: everybody in this building his hope is that he's gonna 886 00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,399 Speaker 1: be back sooner or later. Then it won't be an issue. 887 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 1: You got Lamar Miller, you got Deante Foreman, You've got 888 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:53,759 Speaker 1: Tyler Irvin coming back, who could play receiver, running back. 889 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:55,440 Speaker 1: You got Alfred Blue who you signed to a one 890 00:44:55,520 --> 00:45:01,360 Speaker 1: year deal, so you've got you've got depth at that position. 891 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:04,960 Speaker 1: If you got Dante Foreman coming back. Now, if it 892 00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:07,200 Speaker 1: looks like Foreman's not gonna be able to go right away, 893 00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:09,400 Speaker 1: or it's gonna take him some weeks, I don't know, 894 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:11,440 Speaker 1: maybe he can retires into mark memory and see what 895 00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:14,000 Speaker 1: he's got. Maybe that's an option. I don't know that 896 00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:16,800 Speaker 1: I would jump all the way into that bucket, but 897 00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:19,839 Speaker 1: maybe in a short term, maybe in a pinch, maybe 898 00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:21,640 Speaker 1: see what you got, Maybe you realize he's got a 899 00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:23,520 Speaker 1: little bit more in the tank that everybody thinks he 900 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:26,400 Speaker 1: possibly has, but Demarca Moore still out there on the 901 00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 1: market probably, I would think at this point gonna wait 902 00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:31,600 Speaker 1: until after training camp to figure out where he is 903 00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:34,040 Speaker 1: going to spend the next few years of his career, 904 00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:37,239 Speaker 1: or maybe just a year. They say about running backs 905 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:39,000 Speaker 1: they age in dog years. I don't know. I think 906 00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 1: I was the one who said that, but either way, 907 00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:44,000 Speaker 1: appreciate you guys listening tonight, thanks to Deep, thanks to Drew. 908 00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:47,360 Speaker 1: So glad to be back with you full time.
