On the surface, 22 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:28,759 Speaker 1: the game tune one at three and on four teams 23 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: may not meet a whole lot, but I know it 24 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 1: to the city of Houston after what transpired this week, 25 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: this is not only an important one, but I think 26 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: it's an intriguing one. I think it's one that a 27 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 1: lot of people are going to want to see the result, 28 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: and not only that, how the result comes to be. 29 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: What does the offense look like, how does the d 30 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 1: make transitions? All that kind of stuff. We'll talk all 31 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: about it on this episode of Texans All Access. I 32 00:01:56,360 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 1: am your host, football Anolds and salad reporter John Harris. 33 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 1: Glad to be with you. We're gonna have plenty on 34 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: the show. In our next segment, dpcity who goes one 35 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: on one with Farrell Brown. That's right, tight End's Bennier 36 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 1: about three or four weeks. Good looking athlete, good looking, 37 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 1: and I'm telling us he probably would have never ended 38 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,679 Speaker 1: up with the Texans had he not had an injury 39 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 1: at Oregon that really set him back. I think he's 40 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 1: just now a few years after starting to find himself 41 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,639 Speaker 1: a little bit. He was a tremendous player at Oregon, 42 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 1: and I hope that we get to see a little 43 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: bit more of Farrell Brown as we go through. We'll 44 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 1: hear more from Farrell Brown in our next segment. We 45 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 1: obviously have our keys to the game, my keys to 46 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 1: the game, and I'll tell you this, when I get 47 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: to the offense, it's not even about Jacksonville. It could 48 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: be any opponent on the other side, it just so 49 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: happens to be Jacksonville. But this week, especially offensively, it 50 00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: is about this offense and what it can do. And 51 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: we'll get to that when we get to my Keys 52 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: to the Game. We also have got twelve Questions this 53 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 1: week with Drew Doherty. The guest Dylan Cole, one of 54 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: my favorite interviews. He is so good on the mic. 55 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:17,959 Speaker 1: I can't wait to hear this Twelve Questions with Dylan Cole. Also, 56 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: my predictions for every game in the NFL this weekend, 57 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 1: straight up and against the spread, and the games go 58 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: all the way to Wednesday. That's right, Bills Titans moved 59 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 1: to Wednesday, and it's staying on track for now. Apparently, 60 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: the news out of tennesseee no new positives. The news 61 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: out of New England no new positives. So they're getting 62 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: back into their buildings and getting ready for games. I 63 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: think the Patriots game, I want to say, moved to Monday. 64 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 1: The Bills Titans a matchup of underfeated teams, that moves 65 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: to Wednesday. Tuesday, excuse me, Tuesday, Tuesday Night football Sign 66 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: me up. I thought about that because this morning I 67 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: was finishing up a podcast, Football of Friends podcast. Check 68 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: it out at football takeover dot com. It's college football podcast. 69 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: But I think you'll like it. But the Min American 70 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: Conference is coming back to MAC. But it talks about 71 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: maxing how excited they are. They have seven games. They're 72 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 1: all on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. It's awesome. We're gonna 73 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: have football seven days a week coming up very very soon. 74 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: So that's gonna be that's gonna be really, really exciting 75 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 1: to see. So it's also gonna be exciting to see 76 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 1: Bills Titans, both undefeated teams on Tuesday. But we got 77 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 1: business to get through before that. But I make all 78 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: my picks straight up in against the spread, and then 79 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: we'll close it down. I gave Drew to the final word, 80 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,919 Speaker 1: and he felt like things were going so well with 81 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: Dylan Cole, he just decided he was gonna do the 82 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,720 Speaker 1: final word with Dylan Cole. I was cool with that. 83 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,479 Speaker 1: So the final word for tonight's show gonna go to 84 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: Dylan Cole in our final segment. But we're gonna kick 85 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: it off with some hot reads. And for the first 86 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: time in seven years that I've been doing this segment, 87 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: it is not Bill O'Brien with Mark Vannimir. It is 88 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 1: interim head coach Romeo Crenell talking about this one against 89 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,840 Speaker 1: the Jags on Sunday, Mark take it away. Joining us 90 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 1: right now, Coach Romeo Crenell, coach, share with us how 91 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: preparation has gone for this one in a very unique week. Well, 92 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: there has been a unique week, a short week at that, 93 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 1: and so trying to keep me myself get up to 94 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 1: speed on everything that the head coach has to do, 95 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: and then still install a game plan and you know, 96 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 1: all the whole nine yards. It's been a little difficult 97 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:39,919 Speaker 1: because what I have to do is I have to 98 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: get back into the flow of being the head coach. 99 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 1: But the players this week, they've been good. They've been 100 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: working hard. I think their attitudes are good. What about 101 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 1: in game communication with the coordinators and that sort of thing, 102 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 1: like you said, got to get into that flow very 103 00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: quickly with the game management part of things, right, yes, exactly, 104 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 1: you know. And with my headsets, I can switch over 105 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 1: from offense the defense, the special team's coaches there on 106 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: the sideline with me, So I think the communication will 107 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 1: be fine. All right, So let's talk about the Jaguars 108 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: for a movement, coach, got to slow down this offense. 109 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 1: They're moving the ball very well. Yeah, they are. They 110 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 1: do a good job of running the ball because they 111 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: are running back. That's pretty good. They have some receivers, 112 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: they got some big tight ends, you know, and you know, 113 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: we some of our struggles have involved the running games. 114 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: So we're gonna have to load up against the run. 115 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 1: They know that. And so I anticipate play action passes 116 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 1: and some deep balls, and we're gonna have to defend 117 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 1: the deep ball. Coach, what about the Texans offense and 118 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: getting going here? What's it going to take? I know 119 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: you can't reinvent the entire offense, but what do you anticipate? 120 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: What have you been planning for that you could tell us, Well, 121 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: just like our defense struggles with the run. Our offense 122 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: sometimes struggles with the run up as well. And I 123 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 1: think if we can get a running game established, that's 124 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 1: going to have the quarterback quite a bit, you know, 125 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: because if you can run the ball, defenses have to 126 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: load up on the run linebackers any run fake, they 127 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 1: have to run and attack the line of scrimmage, which 128 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: opens up the passing game, you know. So our ability 129 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: to get a running game going will be key. Coach, 130 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: thanks so much for joining us. A good luck against Jacksonville. Hey, 131 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: thank you all right, excellent stuff there from Romeo Cornell 132 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: and of course to voice the Texans Mark Van Mirar. 133 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: Let's get to our next hot read, and that will 134 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: be the injury report, and on Friday it turns into 135 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: a game status report. And here is the good news. 136 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: I guess on both sides, nobody is ruled out at 137 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 1: this particular moment. However, there are nine questionable players. Start 138 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 1: with your Texans today in practice. Randald Coop didn't participate, 139 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: but it was not injury related. I think he gets 140 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: Fridays off either way. He got Friday off in this one. 141 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: He is good to go. Though the five questionable we're 142 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: all limited participants today in practice Jordan Nakins still coming 143 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: back from that concussion, also dealing with the ankle injury. 144 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: He is questionable. Keion Crossing is new to the injury report. 145 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: He is questionable to hamstring. Buddy Howell hamstring. Peter Callum 146 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: Baye also limited with a hamstring. Bernardi McKinney has been 147 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 1: dealing with his shoulder. Those five are questionable dealing Cole 148 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: Brandon Dunne, Colin Gilaspia, larry My Tunsel, all four in 149 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: they were full participants at practice today. Now those five, 150 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: Jordan Nakins probably the one that you say, okay man, 151 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: that ankle concussion. Mike God tells me with Jordan it's 152 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 1: probably gonna be another week to deal with that concussion. 153 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: That'll obviously help him with the ankle. Hopefully b Mac 154 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: will be ready to go. Sometimes you just with b Mac, 155 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 1: you just gotta there's no way you keep that guy 156 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: off the field. So hopefully he will be ready to 157 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 1: go against James Robinson this running game of the Jacksonville Jaguars. 158 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 1: On the Jaguars side, nobody out limited participants in practice. 159 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: C J. Henderson, Miles Jack both questionable for this one. 160 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: If they miss. Oh boy, will Richardson, Lewis k Chenault, 161 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 1: Gerard Wilson. They were all back drug. Wilson is the 162 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: guy to keep an eye on. He was on IR 163 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: They have twenty one days, I believed whether to bring 164 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 1: him back or not. The same goes for Quincy Williams. 165 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: He was a full participant of practice today coming back 166 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: from a corp muscle injury. The Jaguars have to decide 167 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: whether they are going to add him back to the 168 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: roster or not. The biggest name I think on the 169 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 1: injury report all told and want to keep it on 170 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: as Josh Allen not the quarterback for Buffalo Bills. Josh 171 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: Allen edge rusher and one of the better yet young 172 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 1: edge rushers in the league. He has not participated in 173 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: practice all week. He's been dealing with a knee and jury. 174 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 1: He is listed as questionable for this one. Josh Allen, CJ. Henderson, 175 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 1: Miles Jack arguably three the top five players for the 176 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:13,439 Speaker 1: Jaguars all questionable. Although CJ Henderson, Miles Jack have at 177 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: least practiced in a limited capacity this week, Josh Allen 178 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: has not, and that is going to be a big 179 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 1: decision for the Jags, because if there's no Josh Allen. 180 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 1: There's going to be not a lot of pass rush 181 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,439 Speaker 1: unless the Jaguars send a ton of blitz at Deshaun Watson. 182 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: So there is your injury report slash game status report 183 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: for Sunday against the Jags.

Yeah, Farrell was brought to the Texans. 281 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: I want to say he was there, and I know 282 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 1: he was there week two for sure. He wasn't active 283 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 1: that week, but he was active in weeks three and four, 284 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: and I think he's gonna end up playing a decent 285 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 1: role on this offense. He has one whale of an 286 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 1: athlete and coming out of Oregon, I thought he was 287 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: going to be one heck of a player and then 288 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: unfortunately he was felled by an injury. And he actually 289 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: talks about that injury with Deepcitu. They talked on a 290 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 1: number of different topics, including that injury that he had 291 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: at Oregon that probably impacted his draft stock a bit 292 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,439 Speaker 1: and hopefully won't get in the way of his NFL career. 293 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: He's doing some good things here with the Texas, hopefully 294 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 1: he continues to do them. On Sunday, he's Farrell Brown 295 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 1: with Deepcitu for a deep Slant one on One of 296 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,400 Speaker 1: the Week Brought to you Byke'sfinity.

So 306 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,199 Speaker 1: my dad wanted us all to have like royal names. 307 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: And my mom was reading like a book or watching 308 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: the movie, and I can't remember what the movie was. 309 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 1: I shouldn't know, but she was like she heard it, 310 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 1: and she was just like she wasn't gonna tell nobody 311 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: the name, because you know, like that's always like a 312 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,919 Speaker 1: fun thing. Like everybody he tells somebody you're gonna name 313 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 1: your son this, and they're like, well, I know a 314 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: guy and this thing.

You came from Cleveland, 325 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: You signed with the Texans just after Week one. The 326 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: Texans needed a tight end, Collie wearing one on IR 327 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: and you had some mixed experience in the league. So 328 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:03,639 Speaker 1: what was it like. I mean, trying out for a 329 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 1: new team is always I imagine stressful, but with COVID 330 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:10,880 Speaker 1: and all the new protocols and precautions in place, what 331 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: was that whole process like for you? I kind of 332 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,879 Speaker 1: been transitioning a lot. This is my third coach actually 333 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 1: in the year and a half. Everywhere I've been, actually, 334 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 1: I haven't had the same coach consecutive year, so I've 335 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 1: had a fourth year. I had a coach every year 336 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: or some two coaches and two years, so kind of familiar. 337 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 1: Just like with the coaches learning offenses, I've been around 338 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 1: a game. I just love a sport, so I kind 339 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: of just study. So when I came here, this was 340 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 1: by far one of the more harder offenses is to learn. 341 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: But I just dove in and just studied. And it's 342 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 1: not more it's more of just a terminology thing. And 343 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:48,160 Speaker 1: Coach Will does a great job coaching and coaches up 344 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 1: and it's more of a conversation like he'll say one 345 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 1: thing and I say what does that mean? What do 346 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:53,920 Speaker 1: you mean by that? Then I say, oh, that's that 347 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: and he's like, yeah, that's that. So it's more like 348 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 1: just learning the language of what the Texans used, that 349 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 1: the concepts. It's a lot of the same around the league. 350 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: So it's just learning the whole new language. And like 351 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,440 Speaker 1: I said, coach Will does a good job. He has 352 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 1: gotten me up to speed. Yeah, And was it weird 353 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,440 Speaker 1: because with everything going on with the pandemic, you you 354 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: had to get tested and just traveling is such a 355 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:19,919 Speaker 1: such a hassle these days, and trying to get around 356 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 1: the city when everything is sort of sort of closed 357 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 1: but sort of not. What was that like? It was 358 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,439 Speaker 1: kind of weird. I mean first coming in I was 359 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 1: just like in the hotel for a week and then 360 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: you had to have like a tryout, and but you can't, 361 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,400 Speaker 1: like you just sit in a hotel eat three meals 362 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 1: a day. Did feel like it just feel big, and 363 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 1: you got to go run around. Like three days ago, 364 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: I got to do a workout. Yeah, I gotta do 365 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 1: a workout. So I was like, all right, can I go. 366 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 1: I'm like trying to work out in the hotel room 367 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 1: and stuff. So that was fun. But I mean, I 368 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:48,640 Speaker 1: think it's kind of just been going. It's just been 369 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: an ongoing a process. Like even now with the tight 370 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,160 Speaker 1: ends we've covered in today and got a whole new 371 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 1: set of protocols that we have to buy buy. So 372 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: I mean it sucks. I mean, let's put it. I 373 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 1: mean everybody sucks for everybody. Everybody hate this. I mean 374 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: you're at home having to watch it. But it's just 375 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,159 Speaker 1: like you have to embrace it, you know, just just 376 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: roll with the punches, honestly, because you still got to 377 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 1: go out there and play. We're trying to win games, 378 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 1: so you just gotta roll with the punches and adapt. 379 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,920 Speaker 1: I think that brings out the best in everyone. Yeah. 380 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 1: I read somewhere that's the opponent that everybody's facing this 381 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 1: year is COVID trying to just to get past COVID 382 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 1: through these the season? What you had a brand new 383 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 1: coach in will Lying You mentioned him, but then you 384 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: also have some familiarity with this offense in Darren Fells. 385 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,719 Speaker 1: You guys had some time together in Cleveland. So what 386 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 1: was it like reuniting with him? How well did you 387 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 1: know him up in Cleveland? I know you said you 388 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 1: bounced her on a lot, but how much of a 389 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: help was it to come here and see a familiar 390 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: facing him? So we was We was there for a 391 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: four year together. There's a great veteran that's been around 392 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 1: a lot of different programs as well, and good gotta good, 393 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 1: gotta get gain some knowledge from on the field and 394 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,199 Speaker 1: off the field. So he said, if I ever have 395 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: a question, I'm not gonna ask darreny, He'll yeah a 396 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 1: lot what I got or something. So I think we 397 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 1: got a cool tiny room. Yeah, And you and Darren 398 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 1: both have a little bit of a history with basketball. 399 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,240 Speaker 1: We've talked to Darren lots of times about playing European basketball. 400 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,199 Speaker 1: But I read somewhere that you are kind of a 401 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 1: basketball standout yourself in high school. How did you decide 402 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: to go to the football rounds in the basketball. One 403 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: of the coaches actually came to me was told me 404 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 1: that I was averaging basketball and like myself, not my ability, 405 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 1: but as in like my my height and weight. He 406 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: was like, you know your six six These NBA guys 407 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,439 Speaker 1: are six a sixteen. You know, football, you're kind of 408 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 1: like a He told me, it's like you'll go to 409 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: the league just off your height, you know. So, uh, 410 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: the money sounded kind of good. But looking back, I 411 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: mean I probably should have sticked with the basketball. It's 412 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: a lot fewer games, but yeah, but uh yeah I 413 00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:00,119 Speaker 1: actually play. We talked about it the other day our 414 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: tight end room. We kind of like are starting five 415 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: probably up against anybody's because you guys do have a 416 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 1: really good, really really good starting five. You guys are 417 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,679 Speaker 1: all very athletic in multiple sports in that Titan group. 418 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 1: All right, So before you got to Houston, before you 419 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 1: got to Texas, how much did you know about the city. 420 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 1: How much did you know about Texas? Had you ever 421 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,640 Speaker 1: been here? Do you have any ties? Two of my 422 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 1: uncles actually lived out here. I trained out here for 423 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: like three months. You did two summers ago, So I 424 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,719 Speaker 1: kind of been down here and it was kind of familiar. 425 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 1: I'm still learning about it. A lady gave me a 426 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 1: whole spiel when I was picking out furniture about the 427 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: I don't want to get it wrong. They might talk 428 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: about me. Is it the Cowboy Day? I don't know 429 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:45,640 Speaker 1: what it's called. They say it's a big dealer around 430 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:49,120 Speaker 1: Oh oh yeah, go Texan Day? No, is that when 431 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 1: they do all the stuff here, it's like a big 432 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 1: They say they sail cows and they got the Derby 433 00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 1: or the rodeo rodeo. Yeah, may not. I mean, I 434 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 1: don't know if there will be a rodeo this next year, 435 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: but if there is, hopefully you're around to see it, 436 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,199 Speaker 1: because yeah, that's um, that's this. Lady gave me a 437 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 1: whole spiel how to rodeo rodeo stuff. She said, well, 438 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 1: you know you're a Texan when you actually buy the 439 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 1: boots and the hats. So once you get that, then 440 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 1: you're totally a Texan. I think I'm gonna find me 441 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 1: someone where to a game. Well, I want to ask 442 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 1: you about your college days, because in just reading about 443 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 1: you and learning about you, the one thing that really 444 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:32,679 Speaker 1: stood out was the fact that you had just a 445 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:36,640 Speaker 1: really serious injury in college that you overcame and that's 446 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,199 Speaker 1: allowed you to keep playing football. And it's not just 447 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: any injury. It was threatening not only your football career, 448 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,360 Speaker 1: but also there was a chance that you might actually 449 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 1: have your like MP two, is that correct? Can you 450 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,439 Speaker 1: tell me about your injury? And for people that that 451 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 1: don't know about it, well, at first when it happened, 452 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 1: we thought it was just you know Acolco like your 453 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,679 Speaker 1: stand there kind of need this location. But then we 454 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,120 Speaker 1: as Utah and I was just like in a lot 455 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 1: of pain, caught like a full body crimp on the 456 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 1: ambalance of you know, it was a It was a 457 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,959 Speaker 1: one of those kind of shows. So they they instead 458 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 1: of going back what the team is like when we'll 459 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 1: just send them to the hospital, get them on some 460 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 1: pain tolerance, and they kind of gave me some ivs. 461 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 1: I was still in pain and they started like shooting die. 462 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,160 Speaker 1: Basically I wasn't getting leg so when they die when 463 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 1: they were shooting to die, basically like they couldn't see 464 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: it when they got to my knee and uh so 465 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: I wasn't getting no blood from the leg down. So 466 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 1: that was like first kind of scene so the doctors 467 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 1: came in, was like, yeah, we got to see you 468 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,880 Speaker 1: in the surgery and I was like well, so I'm like, well, 469 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not giving you y'all not doing surgery me. 470 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 1: I don't know you doctors like these. I'm with the 471 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,680 Speaker 1: Utah doctors. You know. They like, we got a surgeon 472 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 1: and I'm like, well, I'm not doing surgery. They told me. 473 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: Everybody else from Orgon flew back. So I was like, well, 474 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 1: they say that charge is supposed to give medicine. So 475 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:58,879 Speaker 1: the guy was like okay, Well he sent in the 476 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 1: doctors like, well, you won't play ball again if you 477 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 1: don't get the surgery right now. We had to cut 478 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,400 Speaker 1: off your leg. So then I was like, okay, we'll 479 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 1: give me the surgery. I guess a surgery done, y, 480 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:13,119 Speaker 1: I guess I had. Okay, So the surgery it saved 481 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 1: your leg essentially the fact that you were able to 482 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: get it done. The surgery, they basically did a vein 483 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 1: bypass because I had slipped my artery and when I 484 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 1: slipped the artery I was it messed up the vein 485 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 1: basically to flow the veins, so they basically bypassed stitched 486 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,719 Speaker 1: it up and that was a surgery to basically I 487 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 1: had to wait thirty days, so it was kind of 488 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 1: like a thirty day wait to see if the blow 489 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 1: will actually restore, and that it's kind of hard to explay. 490 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 1: So basically I was waiting. I waited thirty days to 491 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 1: see if the vein bypass that they did would basically 492 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 1: flow kind of like the blood flowing back again through 493 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 1: your life, blow flowing back through that way. So obviously 494 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: it did because you're playing football, But what was how 495 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: long were you out of football? Were you? I mean, 496 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 1: I would imagine you'd be pretty worried that you not 497 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: gonna be able to play again. So if it was November, 498 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 1: I had that, I had another surgeon after that thirty 499 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 1: days and I had to have another surgeon. I had 500 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: three surgeries in total, and then I did about I 501 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,679 Speaker 1: read shirt and I saw I did about nineteen nineteen 502 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 1: months a rehab, and I think the people at Oregon 503 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 1: was fabulous, The people of the Cleveland clinic was fabulous. 504 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 1: My mom, my fiance now who as I was waiting 505 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,440 Speaker 1: back then, was fabuless, and just they kind of kept 506 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: all the I honestly didn't know the telling the story 507 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 1: now you know the seriousness of it. But when it happened, 508 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 1: I never knew the seriousness of it. Like other than 509 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 1: the doctor saying I got to get the surgery and 510 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:45,880 Speaker 1: my leg get cut off. I thought I was good 511 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:47,399 Speaker 1: after I got the surgeon. I didn't know that I 512 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 1: was them thirty days waiting. I didn't know that I 513 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 1: was waiting. I thought I was fine. Like my parents 514 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,199 Speaker 1: and everybody else knew to see a verity of it, 515 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: but they wouldn't tell me basically, So I mean I 516 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 1: was just chilling. They just like, oh, you just gotta 517 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 1: get another surgery thirty days later. They didn't tell me 518 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 1: then that I was like basically like the thirty days, 519 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:09,640 Speaker 1: I might have had to get my leg chopped off, 520 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 1: like if it didn't work. I didn't know that until 521 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 1: after it worked, you know what I mean. So, so 522 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: you have a great attitude because everyone just kept very 523 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,360 Speaker 1: very information from you, which is I don't I don't 524 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,199 Speaker 1: think that's I don't fault your family at all for 525 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 1: doing that. But now that you know that that's how 526 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: serious it was, I imagine you just have a different 527 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:32,399 Speaker 1: appreciation for playing that. You know, you wouldn't have definitely 528 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:35,719 Speaker 1: grateful for the game, and honestly, it was just like 529 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: another challenge. And I love challenges. I love the competitiveness. 530 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 1: I love people saying that you can't do something. Even 531 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,479 Speaker 1: with the injury, there is like, oh, you're not going 532 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 1: to be able to play, You're not going to be 533 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 1: able to do this, and you know, I mean, I 534 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: just love overcovering those obstacles. And it was just another challenge, honestly, 535 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: And it was just fun because we basically this this 536 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 1: ton of story kind of get chills when we started 537 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: to rehab. There was no rehab for it. Like when 538 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 1: you get an ACL it's like, Okay, this is what 539 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: you do for a cl this is what you do 540 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: for a shoulder. Like with mine, we didn't know, like 541 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: Zach Miller kind of had this same injury. He called 542 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 1: me and we talked, kind of talked. You know. It 543 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 1: wasn't a it wasn't a playbook for this rehab, so 544 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 1: it was just like day to day like we had 545 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 1: come in and we kind of like wrote the story 546 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: on how to recover from it because you've never seen it, 547 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 1: you know, So I mean that was fun. I actually 548 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 1: lived in Salt Lake now and I went there this 549 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 1: summer because obviously with the COVID stuff and with everything 550 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 1: going on, I went to that doctor. I went to 551 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: that physical therapy this off season because we was basically 552 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: kind of not had it, didn't have an off season, 553 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 1: And the doctor was like, you're Parrel Brown, and it's like, dude, 554 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 1: you're like a superstar out here. Like your case. Oh man, 555 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 1: everybody knew it. I walked into like the Utah like 556 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: hospital and everybody knew me, like the guy that gives 557 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 1: me chills that that's really scary too, that you were 558 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 1: kind of the cutting edge for them on an injury 559 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 1: that they had not seen. So they use it like 560 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 1: a big case that they were like the doctors but 561 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 1: like the Jazz doctors knew me. Was like kind of 562 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: weird but kind of funny. Do they know? Do you 563 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 1: have a name for what it was that you had? 564 00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 1: It's just the barrel ground injury, all right? So what 565 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 1: about now here you are because you've overcome all that 566 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 1: and so much in your career and now you're here 567 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 1: with the Houston Texans. And it seems to be good 568 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: timing as far as the tight ends are concerned, because 569 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,959 Speaker 1: Wearing obviously he's not ready to be back yet and 570 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 1: then and then we saw what happened with Jordan Aikins 571 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 1: getting the hit in the game. And you've gotten to 572 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: get into some games here starting with week three. But 573 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: for fans that don't really know you or or don't 574 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: know much about what you bring to the game, what 575 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 1: do you bring to the game. What do you think 576 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 1: that you offer that tight ends group. I think I 577 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 1: bring just a lot of energy. I mean, I kind 578 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 1: of just can do it all. When I was at Oregon, 579 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 1: I was used a special team. My coach was a 580 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: special team coaching. You couldn't start for him at tight 581 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 1: end if you didn't play special teams. So I was 582 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 1: I can play on special teams. I was used as 583 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 1: a blocker pass catching at Oregon. So I think I'm 584 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 1: just a guy that kind of do it, can do 585 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: it all. Block to give you some stuff in the 586 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 1: past game athletic and run after the catch, get block. 587 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 1: I think now it's just kind of the coach is 588 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 1: getting used to me now. So just seeing my role 589 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: growing week the week, the run game has been we 590 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: haven't gotten to the point where we want to be 591 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 1: in a run game, so that's kind of been a 592 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: thing that we need to get off the ground. So 593 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 1: I've been using the blocking. Hopefully in these weeks leading 594 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: up I can get my hands on a few bars 595 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 1: and show the coaches that I can do that, you 596 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 1: know what I mean. So you just kind of start 597 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 1: seeing your role stack and Stack went in on special 598 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 1: teams and started on three of them before this past week, 599 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 1: and by time the game was over, I was on 600 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: all five special teams. So Phil, then pretty good. There 601 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,719 Speaker 1: got me one of a nice easy tackle kickoff, you know, 602 00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 1: So just feeling in. Just got to be a pro, honestly, 603 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 1: you never no, I mean we're a record pace right now, 604 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 1: just as a whole leadal injury. So I mean you 605 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 1: see guys drop in, you know, all the time. I 606 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 1: mean usually it's a big part of the game, but 607 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 1: like this year's his astronomical number. So I mean you 608 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 1: just got to be ready to be a pro and 609 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: be it to step up. I mean that's just always 610 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 1: the name of the game every years. Just step up 611 00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 1: the next day. So yeah, we're looking forward to seeing 612 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 1: more of you as the season goes on, because we've 613 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: seen as you've gotten here, every single week we see 614 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 1: a little bit more of you as you get used 615 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 1: to the offense and get to know your teammates a 616 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 1: little bit better and Wetart getting to know you as well, Pharaohs, 617 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 1: so best e lect through the rest of the season, 618 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 1: and man, what a story. I guess. Congratulations for overcoming that. 619 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm a little scared that when you go 620 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 1: to your Utah doctors they still talk about your kids. 621 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 1: It's pretty funny. Thank you, nice meeting you, best of luck. 622 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 1: Thank you. I was a big fan of Pharaoh's when 623 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 1: he was at Oregon, and I hated seeing him come 624 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 1: down that knee injury. But I'll tell you what, he 625 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 1: was good on the hoof, and I know, I guess 626 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: the Steelers man. He had one great block down on 627 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 1: the goal line, and hopefully there's more of that with 628 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 1: Farrell Brown. I don't think he's the newest Texan, but 629 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: he's pretty darn close. Those good stuff with heat and 630 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 1: deep city.

I am your host, John Harris, football 727 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 1: analyst and styline reporter, hosting you on a Friday for 728 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 1: This is now my seventh year of doing this, and 729 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,360 Speaker 1: it's also my seventh year of giving you the Keys 730 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,920 Speaker 1: to the Game. I do this every single week on Friday, 731 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 1: diving deep, deep, deep into the game the Texans are 732 00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:11,959 Speaker 1: about to face, and this week it is the one 733 00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:17,799 Speaker 1: and three Jacksonville Jaguars. So let's get going with our 734 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:20,640 Speaker 1: keys to the game, and we'll start with the Texans 735 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 1: defense facing the Jaguars offense. Now, Jacksonville has got an 736 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:30,439 Speaker 1: offense that has that averages one hundred and four point 737 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:32,880 Speaker 1: three yards per game, that's twenty second in the NFL. 738 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 1: They're throwing it as well as the nearly any team 739 00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 1: in the league two hundred and sixty two point eight 740 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:39,719 Speaker 1: yards per game. That's tenth in the league. I can't 741 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:42,200 Speaker 1: remember the last time the Jacks had a passing offense 742 00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:44,760 Speaker 1: that was rated within the top ten in the league. 743 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 1: Total offense per game three hundred and sixty seven yards 744 00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 1: per game, that's nineteenth in the league, but better than 745 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:53,960 Speaker 1: what the Texans have been doing. Texas defense is going 746 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,879 Speaker 1: to have their hands full. And one key stat, now 747 00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 1: this is not something the Texans have taken advantage of, 748 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:04,239 Speaker 1: but the Jags have five turnovers this year four interceptions 749 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:07,399 Speaker 1: through four games. Gardner minshew, good for one a game? 750 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:10,759 Speaker 1: Can we get one? Please? I don't care, spit the 751 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:13,319 Speaker 1: bit out and go find a turnover. I don't care 752 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:17,800 Speaker 1: what we have to do, but please, please, please go 753 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:21,680 Speaker 1: find a turnover. The Jags have lost five this year. 754 00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:25,080 Speaker 1: Their turnover margin is minus three. They only have they've 755 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 1: generated only I'm sorry, they're not minus two internover margin. 756 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 1: They've only generated three interceptions on their side. So this 757 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 1: could be an opportunity to go get your turnover. And 758 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:36,040 Speaker 1: you need that, so let's go put that up on 759 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:39,960 Speaker 1: the shelf. Create turnovers. It's not one of the five 760 00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:45,879 Speaker 1: Keys of the game because it is like so incredibly 761 00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 1: important that you could say it for every single week. 762 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,480 Speaker 1: But it's something that Texans have absolutely got to do, 763 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:56,719 Speaker 1: have to do on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Get 764 00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:59,360 Speaker 1: a turnover. Now what else they have to do? All right, 765 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 1: here we go. Number one, bring numbers to the party, 766 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:08,919 Speaker 1: and I'm talking about the tackling party. James Robinson five 767 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:13,279 Speaker 1: nine two fifteen. He's a bowling ball butcher knives. Now, 768 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:17,960 Speaker 1: he is not quite Clyde Edwards Layers. Clyde's a little shorter, 769 00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 1: little bit more compact, but they're very similar in that regard. 770 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 1: Talk to any defensive player on the face of this earth, 771 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 1: and that defensive player will tell you would you rather 772 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:33,680 Speaker 1: tackle a taller, bigger running back or a shorter, squatty 773 00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:37,000 Speaker 1: or quicker running back, And I will guarantee you a 774 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 1: thousand percent they'll tell you the taller, more straight up 775 00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 1: running back. Would you rather face Derrick Henry or James Robinson. 776 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:46,279 Speaker 1: A lot of people say Derrick Henry. Yeah, he might. 777 00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 1: Henry might embarrass you with a pie face, stiff arm, 778 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 1: but he's a big target. You got a lot to 779 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:56,759 Speaker 1: hit small stock. You're running backs, you don't. So in 780 00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:58,880 Speaker 1: the first game of the year we faced Clyde Edwards Hilaire. 781 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,960 Speaker 1: What happened twenty miss tackles. I think he probably generated 782 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:05,120 Speaker 1: most of them. So this week it's James Robinson. It 783 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 1: cannot be a one man's solo operation. It's got to 784 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:11,600 Speaker 1: be three, four, five guys at the tackle spot, making 785 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 1: the tackles and keeping Robinson from getting yards after contact. 786 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:19,640 Speaker 1: It is an absolute must. Sprint to the football and 787 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:24,399 Speaker 1: wrap that joker up Number two Minshew from the well. 788 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 1: Now I did say earlier Minshew and the Jags average 789 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: two hundred sixty two point eight yards per game through 790 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 1: the air. That's pretty aren't good. But Minshew is at 791 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:38,360 Speaker 1: his best when he can create minshew Mania, where he 792 00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:41,760 Speaker 1: can throw off platform, where he buys himself some time 793 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,840 Speaker 1: and gets out to the left and fires across his body. 794 00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 1: He gets out to the right and he throws one 795 00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:49,960 Speaker 1: on the run. That's when he is on his at 796 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:53,279 Speaker 1: his best. But the Jags, I'm sorry, the Texas last 797 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 1: year showed against the Jags in London. This is how 798 00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 1: you attack Gardner Mitschew. You swallow him in the pocket 799 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: in the well. You don't give him escape lanes out, 800 00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: and then you come in between. You come up to 801 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:09,239 Speaker 1: m B gaps now pressure, but just the whole thing 802 00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 1: enveloping him. He wants an escape lane because it's six one. 803 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,920 Speaker 1: He can't look over everything. And so then when he 804 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 1: tries to throw, he gets up on his toes and 805 00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:21,279 Speaker 1: the ball sails. And that's what happened last year. Four 806 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:23,919 Speaker 1: turnovers in the last four possessions, in large part because 807 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 1: Gardner Mitschew had to throw from the well. Make him 808 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:28,840 Speaker 1: throw from the well, swallow him up in it and 809 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:30,880 Speaker 1: hope that you don't get a couple of turnovers like 810 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 1: you did in London last year. Number three and I'm 811 00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:35,640 Speaker 1: not going to spend too much time on this one 812 00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:41,719 Speaker 1: because this is about as obvious and as important as 813 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 1: maybe creating turnovers. But something that Texans have done habitually 814 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:51,359 Speaker 1: well throughout the last few years is setting the edge 815 00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:55,439 Speaker 1: against the run. Something they have done not as well 816 00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 1: the last two weeks, in particular, is set the edge 817 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:04,319 Speaker 1: against the run. Set the edge in the run game. 818 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:07,799 Speaker 1: I didn't tell a straighter earlier this week. You can 819 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 1: see it. You can see what happens when the edge 820 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:18,399 Speaker 1: is set perfectly and guys get off blocks. It seems easy, 821 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,759 Speaker 1: it sounds easy. It's not the easiest thing, but it 822 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 1: must be done. It absolutely must be done. Key number four, 823 00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 1: Keep Chark in front. Chart is DJ chart. The first 824 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:35,520 Speaker 1: time that I saw DJ Chark was right here at 825 00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:39,520 Speaker 1: Energy Stadium when he was playing for LSU, and I 826 00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:41,480 Speaker 1: think it was in the Texas Bowl where he had 827 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 1: a reverse for a touchdown and I'm watching that Joker run. 828 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:48,839 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my god. Well the next year, over 829 00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 1: the next couple of years, he started to expand his 830 00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:53,880 Speaker 1: game and became one of the better deep threats in 831 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:57,040 Speaker 1: the SEC. Came out to legally as a rookie, had 832 00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 1: some hiccups early in his career last year and on 833 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 1: to this year. When he's been healthy, he's been a problem. 834 00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:07,440 Speaker 1: He runs tremendous routes, he's got great speed, and now 835 00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:11,560 Speaker 1: he's learning how to use all of that together to 836 00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 1: create a dynamic downfield threat. Last week he had two 837 00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:18,280 Speaker 1: touchdowns against the Bengals and the loss. But I worry 838 00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:20,840 Speaker 1: about him going over the top. Now, one thing the 839 00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 1: Texans have done well is not allowed those big downfield passes. 840 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:28,200 Speaker 1: They have not giving up the bomb down the field. 841 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:31,600 Speaker 1: That's one thing they have not done and I'd like 842 00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:34,279 Speaker 1: to see that stay the same. But here's where there's 843 00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:37,200 Speaker 1: a little bit of a wrinkle. Keep Chark in front, 844 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:42,279 Speaker 1: but don't give him those completions in front of you. 845 00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:45,040 Speaker 1: But that makes sense. Yeah, I don't want him going 846 00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:47,440 Speaker 1: over the top, but I also don't want him catching 847 00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 1: ten intermediate passes for one hundred and eighty yards and 848 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:52,399 Speaker 1: he's just picking up first down at the first down. 849 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,360 Speaker 1: So yes, I want DJ Chark in front so they 850 00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:58,360 Speaker 1: don't get the cheap deep touchdown. But I want to 851 00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:00,840 Speaker 1: make sure that there's pressure on him every time he 852 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 1: goes to catch a football because he's the one threat 853 00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:06,839 Speaker 1: the Jaguars have really in the passing game that can 854 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:11,080 Speaker 1: blow this thing wide open. It's Chark. So at that point, 855 00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:14,120 Speaker 1: keep him in front. But show him some different looks. 856 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,800 Speaker 1: Show him press man, show him bracket, show him some 857 00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 1: zone coverages, some zone drops. And when guys are dropping 858 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:25,960 Speaker 1: the zones this week, please find receivers crossing, please, and 859 00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:30,239 Speaker 1: know what zone you have. Don't get fixated on the 860 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:33,480 Speaker 1: quarterback and watching Minshew and thinking he's gonna get sacked. 861 00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:35,480 Speaker 1: You gotta have your head on a swivel looking for 862 00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:38,200 Speaker 1: receivers at all times. I've gone off in a tangent, 863 00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:41,239 Speaker 1: but it's all related because DJ Chark has to be 864 00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:45,160 Speaker 1: shut down. No deep throws. If he catches something in 865 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 1: front of you, come up and make the tackle and 866 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 1: try and limit his impact as much as you possibly can. 867 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:54,800 Speaker 1: Number five, fine, Number ten. Now, Over the years, I 868 00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:57,160 Speaker 1: used to say this about opposing teams when they face 869 00:46:57,200 --> 00:47:01,719 Speaker 1: the Texans, because Bill Belichick famously is on a sideline 870 00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:04,440 Speaker 1: of twenty sixteen on Thursday Night, miked up by NFL films, 871 00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:06,359 Speaker 1: and they look over there and he's doing the ten 872 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 1: fingers number ten, number ten, And what he's doing is 873 00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 1: he's yelling at his defense that they need to double 874 00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:16,840 Speaker 1: number ten, who in that case was DeAndre Hopkins. Now, 875 00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 1: I don't think you have to double Leavisca Chenult. However, Laviska, 876 00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:25,000 Speaker 1: as I talked about going into the draft, I wanted 877 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:28,680 Speaker 1: him here in Houston, but I knew they weren't going 878 00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:30,400 Speaker 1: to do it once they made a trade for Cooks, 879 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:33,759 Speaker 1: Sign Cobb, etc. The thing about Laviska Chanlt is he 880 00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:36,640 Speaker 1: can line up as a running back and play as 881 00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:38,279 Speaker 1: a running back at a good running back. He can 882 00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:40,160 Speaker 1: line up in slot and play like a really good 883 00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:42,399 Speaker 1: slot receiver. He can line up out wide and play 884 00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:46,320 Speaker 1: like a perimeter wide receiver. Noah, He's not polished in 885 00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,359 Speaker 1: anything that he does. He's in a polished running back. 886 00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 1: He's not polished slot in a polished perimeter receiver. But 887 00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:56,879 Speaker 1: he does all of them so well. And it's one 888 00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:59,600 Speaker 1: player that you have to account for him at all times. 889 00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:04,400 Speaker 1: I don't field. So wherever Leviska Shenault is, you've got 890 00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 1: to know where he is. You got to know what 891 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:08,200 Speaker 1: kind of threat he is, and you got to make 892 00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:12,840 Speaker 1: sure that where he lines up, he's not getting a 893 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:16,000 Speaker 1: linebacker matched up on him. That's one he's gonna win 894 00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:18,839 Speaker 1: all the time. I think David Shaw tells a great 895 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 1: story about Leska. Shaw is the coach at Stanford and 896 00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:24,160 Speaker 1: with Colorado played Stanford last year. It was fourth to 897 00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:27,160 Speaker 1: too late in the game, and Colorado just stuck Schalt 898 00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:28,640 Speaker 1: in the backfield, toss it to him and said, go 899 00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:30,440 Speaker 1: get two yards and a two hundred and twenty five 900 00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:33,759 Speaker 1: pounds and six two. He's gonna get two yards. He 901 00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:37,239 Speaker 1: picked up five ballgame, Colorado one. That's what Jacksonville can 902 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:39,400 Speaker 1: do with a guy like the Levisca Chenault. All right, 903 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:42,759 Speaker 1: let's flip it over and let's talk about this Texans offense. Now. 904 00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:46,120 Speaker 1: As I talk about this offense, what you'll realize are 905 00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 1: a lot of things that talk about don't really have 906 00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:51,080 Speaker 1: to do with the personnel the Jacks too much. It 907 00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:53,920 Speaker 1: has to do with the offense itself. And we'll get 908 00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:57,240 Speaker 1: that in a second. But here's what the Texans are facing. 909 00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:59,279 Speaker 1: The Jags giving up nearly one hundred and thirty nine 910 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,439 Speaker 1: yards per game ground at twenty six in the league. 911 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:03,320 Speaker 1: They give up two hundred and sixty one yards to 912 00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:05,440 Speaker 1: the air. That's twenty fourth in the league, and overall 913 00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:08,439 Speaker 1: the right at four hundred yards per game, twenty third 914 00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:10,720 Speaker 1: in the league. It's actually better than the Texans defense, 915 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:16,160 Speaker 1: but damn faced offenses that really can blow you up. 916 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:20,719 Speaker 1: So hopefully the Texans can get loose. Now here we go, 917 00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:24,399 Speaker 1: Number one Texans offense. You come out of that locker 918 00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:28,120 Speaker 1: room looking to attack. You're not feeling anything out. This 919 00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:30,480 Speaker 1: isn't like at night when all the lights are off 920 00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 1: and you're trying to trying to go to the bathroom 921 00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 1: and you're super dark and you're just trying to feel 922 00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,000 Speaker 1: for where everything is in your house, where's the chair, 923 00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:40,080 Speaker 1: and then bang you run into the cat and all 924 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:43,239 Speaker 1: hell breaks loose. This isn't gonna be like that. This 925 00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:45,520 Speaker 1: is like you jumping out of bed and you sprint 926 00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:48,400 Speaker 1: in the bathroom. And if you happen to, you know, 927 00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 1: bump the treadmill, if you happen to knock over a 928 00:49:51,680 --> 00:49:54,520 Speaker 1: coat rack, if you happen to break the door, so 929 00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:57,920 Speaker 1: be it. I don't care. Just attack, Come out and 930 00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:03,719 Speaker 1: attack the other defense. Just come out attacking, and look, 931 00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:07,440 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna make any declarations. If the Texas go 932 00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:09,439 Speaker 1: three and out on the first drive. I hope they don't. 933 00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:12,080 Speaker 1: I really hope they don't, and I don't think they 934 00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:14,640 Speaker 1: will if they come out and they attack. Number two. 935 00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:20,400 Speaker 1: Going along with that, use up tempo pacing, go Nascar fast. 936 00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:22,840 Speaker 1: I'm talking called two plays in the huddle and go 937 00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:26,440 Speaker 1: run one and run the next one. Don't substitute so 938 00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:29,040 Speaker 1: you can keep them in their group and go bang bang, 939 00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:33,240 Speaker 1: see what you end up with, and keep going Nascar fast, 940 00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 1: I mean fast. Number three. Utilize everyone in the passing game, 941 00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:42,120 Speaker 1: running backs, Duke and David Johnson, tight ends, hopefully Jordan 942 00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 1: Akins is gonna play Aikins, Fells, Pharaoh Brown, potentially receivers, 943 00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:52,239 Speaker 1: use them all, Cooks, Cobs, Stills, a Fuller, use them all, 944 00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 1: all of them. Spread the wealth and go at it. 945 00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:02,839 Speaker 1: Number four I guess I meant this one. I didn't 946 00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:04,359 Speaker 1: realize what I did when I put this one in here. 947 00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:10,920 Speaker 1: Number four is let four drive. Shaun Watson needs to 948 00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:15,680 Speaker 1: get in the driver's seat and drive the offense. Now, 949 00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:18,000 Speaker 1: he's been the leader of this group. He's done some 950 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:22,080 Speaker 1: tremendous things, but I think there was probably a little 951 00:51:22,120 --> 00:51:27,640 Speaker 1: bit holding him back from being the absolute, without questioned leader. 952 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:32,239 Speaker 1: Of that particular offense. It is now number four. Now 953 00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:34,359 Speaker 1: he's alongside Tim Kelly, and he and Timmy are gonna 954 00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:36,520 Speaker 1: put it together. But number four has got to drive 955 00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 1: this thing, and he's got to drive it the way 956 00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:42,759 Speaker 1: that makes him successful, which in turn makes everybody else successful. 957 00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:46,440 Speaker 1: Get your protections. I don't want to say make it simple, 958 00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:50,280 Speaker 1: but the Kiss philosophy works for a reason. Keep it simple, stupid, 959 00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:54,359 Speaker 1: and go. I know that whenever I had troubles, when 960 00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:56,320 Speaker 1: I was coaching and I had trouble, we just couldn't 961 00:51:56,760 --> 00:52:01,000 Speaker 1: get things going offensively, I scaled it down and I got, 962 00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:03,600 Speaker 1: you know, in my case, eight to ten plays, I 963 00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:05,320 Speaker 1: feel like we could run well. And we got to 964 00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:08,440 Speaker 1: where we ran those exceptionally well and we started getting it. 965 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:10,239 Speaker 1: Then I'd add a little bit, add a little bit, 966 00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:12,360 Speaker 1: before you know, you got a Bullyea base of football, 967 00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:15,920 Speaker 1: of offensive football. Now, the Texas got to do more 968 00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:19,120 Speaker 1: than that. But if they spread the wealth, they go fast, 969 00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:23,720 Speaker 1: at up tempo pace and forrest driving, dictating, as opposed 970 00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:25,719 Speaker 1: to looking at what they're doing and going M I 971 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:27,520 Speaker 1: think they're in this, so we should do this. No, 972 00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:30,799 Speaker 1: it is we're running this play. That's the mic let's 973 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:37,120 Speaker 1: go number five. And this is gonna sound strange because 974 00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 1: these two adjectives don't usually go together. Play desperate and loose. 975 00:52:43,920 --> 00:52:47,160 Speaker 1: Play desperate and loose, And I know your brand is 976 00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:53,280 Speaker 1: like whoa huh, Well, what's the old adage about being desperate? 977 00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:59,000 Speaker 1: That's when you really when nothing happens until somebody gets desperate. 978 00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:04,759 Speaker 1: They say that desperation does what desperation doesn't make assuming 979 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:08,120 Speaker 1: I can't remember either way. But when you get desperate 980 00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 1: for a situation, you do something right. You're starving hunger, 981 00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:13,480 Speaker 1: you're desperate for food. What do you do? You go 982 00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 1: and get food like that pushes you to go get it, 983 00:53:17,160 --> 00:53:20,480 Speaker 1: So have and play with that desperation, like you know what, 984 00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:23,879 Speaker 1: we can't walk back over that sideline without going down 985 00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:27,960 Speaker 1: and getting points on every drive. We can't. So we've 986 00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:29,560 Speaker 1: got to pick up the third and six. We gotta 987 00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:31,239 Speaker 1: do whatever possible to pick up the third and six. 988 00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:35,880 Speaker 1: The flip side is they've got to play loose. And 989 00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:39,120 Speaker 1: I go back to a moment last year at Green 990 00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:44,239 Speaker 1: Bay in training camp, Matt Laflour cranked the music and 991 00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:47,640 Speaker 1: walk a flock of flame came up with gross Street Party, 992 00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:52,560 Speaker 1: and this song is I mean that song came on 993 00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:55,719 Speaker 1: and everybody's dancing. I look over the Texas offense and 994 00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:59,840 Speaker 1: they are all dancing, hopping around. I look at the huddle, 995 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:02,960 Speaker 1: the huddles, you know, Seawn's dancing, guys are dancing in 996 00:54:02,960 --> 00:54:05,400 Speaker 1: the huddle, and I'm like, maybe that's the rhythm we 997 00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:08,640 Speaker 1: need to have with the way we play. Maybe we 998 00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:11,440 Speaker 1: can't be like a bunch of librarians, you know, ah, 999 00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:14,040 Speaker 1: you know, nice and quiet. Maybe we need to walk 1000 00:54:14,120 --> 00:54:18,400 Speaker 1: in with the you know, the beats pill on our shoulder, 1001 00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:21,640 Speaker 1: cranking music, and that's running through our head the whole game, 1002 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:23,799 Speaker 1: and that's the rhythm that we play with. Maybe that's 1003 00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:26,239 Speaker 1: the way we've got to be. I think that's the 1004 00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:29,440 Speaker 1: way we have to be. So play desperate, as in, 1005 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,080 Speaker 1: you can't come off that field unless you score points. 1006 00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:35,680 Speaker 1: The flip side of it is that some fun and 1007 00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 1: let's play loose. Let's be loose, not in our discipline, 1008 00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:42,759 Speaker 1: not in the things that we do, not that we 1009 00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:45,359 Speaker 1: just f fall stars and no big deal. No that's 1010 00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:48,960 Speaker 1: not the point. Playing loose and playing fast will help 1011 00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:52,480 Speaker 1: you avoid those mistakes. So those are my keys to 1012 00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:55,400 Speaker 1: the game, and hopefully those will come to fruition, so 1013 00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:59,520 Speaker 1: your Texans can get win number one on the year. 1014 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:02,640 Speaker 1: All right, when we get back, we will kick off 1015 00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:06,680 Speaker 1: the second hour of the show with Drew Doherty's Twelve Questions, 1016 00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:09,560 Speaker 1: and this week he sits down with Dylan Cole.

But we had Farrell Brow with DPC. 1106 01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:45,720 Speaker 1: That was fun and we did our keys to the game. 1107 01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:48,800 Speaker 1: I gave you what I think is most important about 1108 01:00:48,840 --> 01:00:50,560 Speaker 1: this one. As I said earlier, as I got to 1109 01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:55,120 Speaker 1: the offense, it really was about not who they were facing. 1110 01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:57,560 Speaker 1: It was all about looking the man in the mirror. 1111 01:00:57,880 --> 01:01:01,400 Speaker 1: This offense, what can't it do? Not so much? You know, 1112 01:01:01,560 --> 01:01:04,520 Speaker 1: Jacksonville's got different pieces, and I respect Josh Allen, and 1113 01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:07,520 Speaker 1: I respect Caleb and Chasan and two linebackers, Miles Jack 1114 01:01:07,600 --> 01:01:10,640 Speaker 1: Joe Schobert. I know Miles Jacks banged up a little bit. CJ. 1115 01:01:10,800 --> 01:01:14,280 Speaker 1: Henderson's done some good things as a rookie out of Florida. 1116 01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:18,320 Speaker 1: But this is about whether the offense shows up or not, 1117 01:01:18,480 --> 01:01:21,080 Speaker 1: whether this offense goes to a different level or not, 1118 01:01:21,360 --> 01:01:25,600 Speaker 1: whether DeShawn Watson drives this bus eighty five miles an 1119 01:01:25,640 --> 01:01:29,680 Speaker 1: hour down Highway fifty nine or not. That's what Sundays 1120 01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:31,880 Speaker 1: about to me, not about what they have to do 1121 01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:37,840 Speaker 1: against disapponent. That it's all about what the offense does 1122 01:01:38,720 --> 01:01:41,600 Speaker 1: for itself. The man in the mirror kind of game. 1123 01:01:42,240 --> 01:01:45,160 Speaker 1: Take a look at yourself in the mirror and see 1124 01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:48,960 Speaker 1: exactly what that thing is telling you. All Right, it's 1125 01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:53,360 Speaker 1: time for Drew's twelve questions. It's kind of a fun 1126 01:01:53,440 --> 01:01:57,560 Speaker 1: one because Drew Jews twelve questions can range from hey, 1127 01:01:57,760 --> 01:02:02,120 Speaker 1: what is your favorite hamburger? All the way to hey, 1128 01:02:02,160 --> 01:02:04,520 Speaker 1: you remember that time that you went to sleepaway camp? 1129 01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:07,000 Speaker 1: What was the one Atari cartridge you took with you 1130 01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:09,880 Speaker 1: on the twenty six hundred. I mean, he can range 1131 01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:14,280 Speaker 1: questions all over the map. So it's always fun when 1132 01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:17,080 Speaker 1: he links up with somebody that will play along if 1133 01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:20,640 Speaker 1: you will, and Dylan Cole will definitely do that. It's 1134 01:02:20,640 --> 01:02:23,720 Speaker 1: twelve Questions with Drew Doherty this week with Dylan Cole. 1135 01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:31,400 Speaker 1: Time now for Drew's dozen' And this is someone who 1136 01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:35,640 Speaker 1: is making a encore appearance on Drews Does And I 1137 01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:38,120 Speaker 1: think we did this about six seven months ago with 1138 01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:43,440 Speaker 1: Dylan Cole, linebacker, a special teamer and a team captain. 1139 01:02:43,520 --> 01:02:46,160 Speaker 1: He's the perfect guy to talk to. So, Dylan, what's 1140 01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:52,680 Speaker 1: the most overrated vegetable? Most overrated vegetable it's got? For me, 1141 01:02:53,440 --> 01:02:56,080 Speaker 1: it's Brussels sprouts, But I think more or less it's 1142 01:02:56,120 --> 01:03:00,720 Speaker 1: because my wife loves Brussels sprouts and she wants to 1143 01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:04,440 Speaker 1: eat them every night, and I've gotten sick of them, 1144 01:03:04,600 --> 01:03:09,040 Speaker 1: and I think that they're not that great anymore. You know, 1145 01:03:09,560 --> 01:03:12,560 Speaker 1: Brussels sprouts at one point for a long time. We're 1146 01:03:13,520 --> 01:03:15,520 Speaker 1: right where you're saying. There they were. They were horrible, 1147 01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:18,120 Speaker 1: nobody liked them. They were bottom of the barrel. But 1148 01:03:18,200 --> 01:03:20,280 Speaker 1: they've made a resurgence over the last decade. It's kind 1149 01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:25,200 Speaker 1: of interesting to see Balsoma's vent are on them. They're 1150 01:03:25,240 --> 01:03:28,040 Speaker 1: like great or something that's not. That's not okay, And 1151 01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:29,720 Speaker 1: you burn them, burn them a little bit too. Yeah, 1152 01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:33,240 Speaker 1: you gotta burn them at So, Dylan Cole not a 1153 01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:36,280 Speaker 1: Brussels sprouts fan. Okay, you're stranded on an island, Dylan. 1154 01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:40,440 Speaker 1: You have water, you have one meal per day, so 1155 01:03:40,520 --> 01:03:44,439 Speaker 1: you're not going to starve or get dehydration. What other 1156 01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:47,200 Speaker 1: two things are you gonna make sure you're gonna have 1157 01:03:47,360 --> 01:03:50,439 Speaker 1: with you? Oh? Man, don't have to worry about food 1158 01:03:50,520 --> 01:03:53,480 Speaker 1: or water. All right, Well, I'll get in trouble. But 1159 01:03:53,520 --> 01:03:56,160 Speaker 1: I would say it's a one my wife, the good one, 1160 01:03:56,400 --> 01:04:00,919 Speaker 1: good answers, be there, um, keep me company. And then 1161 01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:06,200 Speaker 1: two I would say a dog I need, I need 1162 01:04:06,200 --> 01:04:08,760 Speaker 1: a lot of compound, very dependent. What's wrong with that? 1163 01:04:08,760 --> 01:04:11,480 Speaker 1: And hey, you won't have to eat Brussel sprouts exactly. 1164 01:04:11,920 --> 01:04:16,040 Speaker 1: You're you're already doing well, which teammate of yours would 1165 01:04:16,080 --> 01:04:18,520 Speaker 1: do just fine in that scenario, being on an island 1166 01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:22,000 Speaker 1: and only having two things. Who would do the best 1167 01:04:22,040 --> 01:04:26,320 Speaker 1: at that? I would say probably Nick Martin. How come 1168 01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:31,160 Speaker 1: he's a guy that can just sit in one spot 1169 01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:34,760 Speaker 1: and do nothing for a long period of time and 1170 01:04:34,920 --> 01:04:37,240 Speaker 1: be okay with it? Well, how do you know this? 1171 01:04:37,400 --> 01:04:40,160 Speaker 1: What do you mean I spent some time with him? 1172 01:04:40,240 --> 01:04:41,960 Speaker 1: We'll just say that I've spent some time with him 1173 01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:44,120 Speaker 1: and I understand who he is as a person, and 1174 01:04:44,480 --> 01:04:50,800 Speaker 1: he is definitely okay with doing nothing. Okay? Which chief 1175 01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:52,480 Speaker 1: so Nick Martin would be the guy who wouldn't have 1176 01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:55,240 Speaker 1: any problem at all, Which teammate wouldn't make it? Which 1177 01:04:55,240 --> 01:04:57,880 Speaker 1: teammate would not last in that scenario? That's gotta be 1178 01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:01,080 Speaker 1: the narger McKinney. He's kind of he's kind of like me. 1179 01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:04,120 Speaker 1: He's dependent, he needs he's he's like, he's like the 1180 01:05:04,160 --> 01:05:06,040 Speaker 1: opposite of Nick Martin. He needs a lot of things 1181 01:05:06,120 --> 01:05:08,080 Speaker 1: to keep him busy. I don't know if is it 1182 01:05:08,240 --> 01:05:10,600 Speaker 1: like he does he have ADHD. I'm not sure what 1183 01:05:10,800 --> 01:05:14,560 Speaker 1: his deal is, but he he definitely has to be 1184 01:05:14,760 --> 01:05:16,520 Speaker 1: doing a lot and he has to be heard, so 1185 01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:18,680 Speaker 1: he better have someone with him if he's out there too. 1186 01:05:19,280 --> 01:05:21,720 Speaker 1: The app on your phone that you could never ever 1187 01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:24,360 Speaker 1: delete is what I feel like. This is like a 1188 01:05:24,720 --> 01:05:30,160 Speaker 1: like everyone's deal. I would say my bank app. I 1189 01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:32,040 Speaker 1: got a lot of investments in there, and I gotta 1190 01:05:32,080 --> 01:05:33,960 Speaker 1: make sure I'm up to date on him shout out 1191 01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:35,920 Speaker 1: to a merrit trade. I'm not gonna name names, but 1192 01:05:36,200 --> 01:05:38,400 Speaker 1: that's that's kind of more impressive than a teammate who 1193 01:05:38,480 --> 01:05:43,160 Speaker 1: said snapchat. So I think you're oh gosh, I'm thinking 1194 01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:46,440 Speaker 1: of that one. Yeah, what other sport that you can 1195 01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:49,120 Speaker 1: What are sport you play? Are you really really good at? 1196 01:05:49,760 --> 01:05:52,520 Speaker 1: Aside from football? I would probably say basketball is my 1197 01:05:53,160 --> 01:05:57,120 Speaker 1: my next I was a point guard in high school. Okay, 1198 01:05:57,200 --> 01:05:59,800 Speaker 1: I was the multator. That's probably my next one. I 1199 01:05:59,880 --> 01:06:01,800 Speaker 1: was gonna say track and field, but I think I've 1200 01:06:01,880 --> 01:06:05,960 Speaker 1: lost them. No, if I kept going with it, what 1201 01:06:06,160 --> 01:06:09,120 Speaker 1: was your event and track? Uh? I was always a 1202 01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:12,160 Speaker 1: partner and I would do high jump along job every 1203 01:06:12,200 --> 01:06:13,720 Speaker 1: once in a while. All right, so you were a 1204 01:06:13,800 --> 01:06:18,080 Speaker 1: five event guy, you'd probably did a splay every time. Yeah, 1205 01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:19,520 Speaker 1: well that's good. You're a good guy to happen a 1206 01:06:19,600 --> 01:06:21,720 Speaker 1: track team. That's I like that doing? All right? What 1207 01:06:21,880 --> 01:06:24,720 Speaker 1: other sport? Are you not good at? What's the one 1208 01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:29,360 Speaker 1: you just you have? No, you're all left feet and thumbs. Oh, 1209 01:06:30,200 --> 01:06:33,720 Speaker 1: probably golf? Okay, Um, I want to I want to 1210 01:06:33,760 --> 01:06:35,680 Speaker 1: be so good at golf, but it's it's just not 1211 01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:39,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm my I think I might 1212 01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:42,360 Speaker 1: be a little too tight here, doesn't feel right. But 1213 01:06:43,000 --> 01:06:46,240 Speaker 1: also I have trouble contacting the ball too, so I 1214 01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:48,120 Speaker 1: think I missed. I swing and missed more than I 1215 01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:51,120 Speaker 1: hit it. How often do you use a pen and paper? 1216 01:06:51,720 --> 01:06:56,840 Speaker 1: Use it about every day? With our meetings? Um? Different, 1217 01:06:57,440 --> 01:06:59,360 Speaker 1: I mean when we anytime we do the scattering port 1218 01:06:59,520 --> 01:07:02,520 Speaker 1: or tendencies and stuff like that. That's all stuff that 1219 01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:07,240 Speaker 1: you need tips and reminders. I would say probably almost 1220 01:07:07,280 --> 01:07:08,800 Speaker 1: every day. I use a pen and piece of paper 1221 01:07:08,960 --> 01:07:12,480 Speaker 1: almost every day. How often do you write incursive only 1222 01:07:12,600 --> 01:07:15,120 Speaker 1: my signature? I'm I'm an all caps guy. Same here. 1223 01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:18,640 Speaker 1: It's easy to read if you're all caps, and it's 1224 01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:21,360 Speaker 1: it looks nice to me at least. What movie? What's 1225 01:07:21,400 --> 01:07:23,840 Speaker 1: the first movie or the only movie, or what was 1226 01:07:23,880 --> 01:07:27,520 Speaker 1: the first movie that gave you nightmares? It the original? 1227 01:07:28,800 --> 01:07:32,280 Speaker 1: That one? Yeah, that one? I don't know when that was? 1228 01:07:32,840 --> 01:07:35,720 Speaker 1: I was definitely younger. So yeah, you were watching that 1229 01:07:35,840 --> 01:07:39,480 Speaker 1: on DVD or VHS or something that's VHS. I think, yeah, 1230 01:07:39,920 --> 01:07:41,560 Speaker 1: that's a good score, maybe right when it came out 1231 01:07:41,560 --> 01:07:45,120 Speaker 1: on DVD. But either one, that one, that one gave 1232 01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:47,720 Speaker 1: me nightmares for at least two weeks. I got. I'm 1233 01:07:47,760 --> 01:07:50,000 Speaker 1: on with you, Okay, last question. You an early bird? 1234 01:07:50,080 --> 01:07:52,400 Speaker 1: Are you a night owl? And why can I be 1235 01:07:52,600 --> 01:07:55,560 Speaker 1: right in between? Sure, I'm like a guy that likes 1236 01:07:55,600 --> 01:07:59,439 Speaker 1: to to wake up and um, get my coffee brought 1237 01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:01,800 Speaker 1: to me, and and then I just lay there for 1238 01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:05,280 Speaker 1: about another forty five minutes until the sun at least 1239 01:08:05,360 --> 01:08:08,400 Speaker 1: comes up, and then I'll mosey around for about two 1240 01:08:08,480 --> 01:08:12,080 Speaker 1: hours and so then bye. About ten thirty or eleven, 1241 01:08:12,680 --> 01:08:15,200 Speaker 1: I'm ready to go for the day. And then at 1242 01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:17,600 Speaker 1: night it's more or less like like I could, I 1243 01:08:17,680 --> 01:08:21,200 Speaker 1: could push towards like eleven. So I don't know, like 1244 01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:22,639 Speaker 1: I think, I feel like I'm right in the middle. 1245 01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:24,920 Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm quite an earlier. I don't 1246 01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:27,320 Speaker 1: like talking in the morning. I don't like being messed 1247 01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:29,639 Speaker 1: with after ten thirty at night. So yeah, I can't. 1248 01:08:29,680 --> 01:08:31,679 Speaker 1: We can't pin you in one of the either category. 1249 01:08:31,760 --> 01:08:34,000 Speaker 1: That's that is a good that's a conundrum there. Just 1250 01:08:34,120 --> 01:08:36,240 Speaker 1: to be clear, you're talking about that that's in the 1251 01:08:36,320 --> 01:08:38,880 Speaker 1: off season. That's not in season that you're oh yeah, yeah, 1252 01:08:38,960 --> 01:08:41,880 Speaker 1: in season. In season, I gotta be early bird, So 1253 01:08:42,320 --> 01:08:44,439 Speaker 1: I definitely have more than one cup of coffee in 1254 01:08:44,439 --> 01:08:47,719 Speaker 1: the morning. I'm um bye about by about six thirty, 1255 01:08:47,720 --> 01:08:51,360 Speaker 1: I'm ready to get going. Everybody's tell me to shut up. Yeah, 1256 01:08:51,360 --> 01:08:53,639 Speaker 1: I knew that, but there's sometimes you know that people 1257 01:08:53,680 --> 01:08:56,600 Speaker 1: see these things and they they don't quite catch on, 1258 01:08:56,680 --> 01:08:58,680 Speaker 1: and you know, I'm just oh, yeah, that's definitely. That's 1259 01:08:58,680 --> 01:09:03,439 Speaker 1: definitely an off season maybe on a Saturday type guy, 1260 01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:07,720 Speaker 1: because you know, during the offseason we're we're working too. Yes, yeah, yeah, 1261 01:09:07,840 --> 01:09:11,960 Speaker 1: you're up early, you're here early. I knew all these things. 1262 01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:13,880 Speaker 1: I just want to make sure the folks out there 1263 01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:16,360 Speaker 1: watching to listen to. Hey, Dylan, it's always fun time 1264 01:09:16,439 --> 01:09:18,800 Speaker 1: with you, man. I really appreciate the time and looking 1265 01:09:18,840 --> 01:09:20,680 Speaker 1: forward to see any out there on Sunday and then 1266 01:09:20,760 --> 01:09:23,880 Speaker 1: the Sundays to come knock him dead man. All right, 1267 01:09:23,880 --> 01:09:34,439 Speaker 1: I appreciate it, all right. I like calling it Drew's 1268 01:09:34,479 --> 01:09:38,880 Speaker 1: twelve questions Jews dozen', although the illiteration for Jews Dozen. 1269 01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:41,680 Speaker 1: I'm cool with so either way. But that was fun 1270 01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:45,760 Speaker 1: stuff with Dylan Cole, who has come back off the 1271 01:09:45,840 --> 01:09:49,599 Speaker 1: knee injury, has been impacting the team on special teams, 1272 01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:52,599 Speaker 1: and I think he's gonna end up as he gets healthier, 1273 01:09:53,400 --> 01:09:55,040 Speaker 1: gets back in the swing of things, I think he 1274 01:09:55,200 --> 01:09:57,040 Speaker 1: is gonna end up playing a role in this defense 1275 01:09:57,120 --> 01:10:00,639 Speaker 1: before too long, just because of his speed, his smarts. 1276 01:10:00,960 --> 01:10:04,240 Speaker 1: I've told the story before about Dylan. We played New 1277 01:10:04,320 --> 01:10:09,120 Speaker 1: England in twenty eighteen, and because I'm not on the field, 1278 01:10:09,120 --> 01:10:10,519 Speaker 1: I can end up seeing some things that maybe I 1279 01:10:10,520 --> 01:10:12,120 Speaker 1: couldn't see if our in the stands are up in 1280 01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:16,880 Speaker 1: the booth. Well, the Patriots had run a play and 1281 01:10:17,600 --> 01:10:21,560 Speaker 1: right before the play, Dylan pointed out exactly where the 1282 01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:24,360 Speaker 1: ball is going. And then he did it a little 1283 01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:28,439 Speaker 1: while later, and I thought, man, what what is he seeing? What? 1284 01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:30,280 Speaker 1: How did he figure it out? I mean, this is 1285 01:10:30,320 --> 01:10:33,920 Speaker 1: against Tom Brady. How did he figure out exactly what 1286 01:10:34,120 --> 01:10:37,880 Speaker 1: it was? And so I went to him lockerroom. I said, hey, 1287 01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:41,760 Speaker 1: just between you and I, I saw you pointing those 1288 01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:43,040 Speaker 1: two plays out, and he kind of looked at me 1289 01:10:43,080 --> 01:10:45,280 Speaker 1: and he got this kind of wry smile, and I 1290 01:10:45,439 --> 01:10:46,760 Speaker 1: was like, what'd you hear? And he looked at me 1291 01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:49,000 Speaker 1: and he shook his head. It's like, it's not what 1292 01:10:49,120 --> 01:10:52,559 Speaker 1: I heard, it's what I saw. And I'm like, man, 1293 01:10:52,720 --> 01:10:55,360 Speaker 1: this was his second year in the league, twenty eighteen, 1294 01:10:56,560 --> 01:10:59,320 Speaker 1: he had I think he had played, Man, I don't 1295 01:10:59,320 --> 01:11:02,280 Speaker 1: even know if he played against Brady in the game 1296 01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:05,240 Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen. You may have maybe a little bit, 1297 01:11:06,320 --> 01:11:08,800 Speaker 1: but guy was on the field. I mean this was 1298 01:11:08,960 --> 01:11:10,720 Speaker 1: at the beginning of the game, near the beginning of 1299 01:11:10,760 --> 01:11:12,160 Speaker 1: the game. It was in the first half for sure. 1300 01:11:12,680 --> 01:11:17,240 Speaker 1: And so how did he figure that out so quickly? Yeah? 1301 01:11:17,280 --> 01:11:19,680 Speaker 1: I thought, Man, that is one smart dude. And you 1302 01:11:19,800 --> 01:11:21,280 Speaker 1: hear it every time he's on the air with us, 1303 01:11:21,720 --> 01:11:24,040 Speaker 1: when you talk ball with him, you just realize how 1304 01:11:24,240 --> 01:11:27,320 Speaker 1: much he comprehends. And I'm telling you right now, if 1305 01:11:27,400 --> 01:11:31,960 Speaker 1: Dylan cole we're fully and completely healthy starting back in 1306 01:11:32,120 --> 01:11:34,800 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen. So that's first I think it was. The 1307 01:11:34,840 --> 01:11:38,439 Speaker 1: first year was twenty sixteen, is that right? Or twenty seventeen. 1308 01:11:39,160 --> 01:11:43,639 Speaker 1: Maybe in twenty seven there was twenty seventeen. He would 1309 01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:45,360 Speaker 1: have found a way on the field a whole heck 1310 01:11:45,360 --> 01:11:47,479 Speaker 1: of a lot more. He just has been hampered by injuries. 1311 01:11:48,040 --> 01:11:50,080 Speaker 1: You know, last year he has the wrist injury I 1312 01:11:50,120 --> 01:11:52,960 Speaker 1: think he got in Week two and that set him 1313 01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:56,000 Speaker 1: back for a while and he came back, but I 1314 01:11:56,040 --> 01:11:58,200 Speaker 1: don't know if he's over himself. Obviously got hurt with 1315 01:11:58,240 --> 01:12:01,400 Speaker 1: the hamstring in twenty seventeen, so he's been banged up 1316 01:12:01,439 --> 01:12:04,240 Speaker 1: all the way and last year, unfortunately he ended up. 1317 01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:06,599 Speaker 1: The risk was in twenty eighteen, and then he had 1318 01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:09,360 Speaker 1: the knee injury last year, and it was just unfortunate 1319 01:12:09,360 --> 01:12:13,160 Speaker 1: because that guy is such a house of fire out 1320 01:12:13,200 --> 01:12:16,080 Speaker 1: in the field. I just love everything that he brings. 1321 01:12:17,000 --> 01:12:21,479 Speaker 1: But that thing I've learned about him in New England 1322 01:12:21,560 --> 01:12:25,000 Speaker 1: and what he was able to see and understand and comprehend, man, 1323 01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:28,360 Speaker 1: that's advanced level stuff for that guy. So I'm glad 1324 01:12:28,400 --> 01:12:31,680 Speaker 1: he's here. I hope that he can stay healthy year 1325 01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:34,200 Speaker 1: after year after year because I think he is gonna 1326 01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:35,840 Speaker 1: end up and I would love to see him stay 1327 01:12:35,880 --> 01:12:39,559 Speaker 1: with this organization because he adds so much on special teams. 1328 01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:41,799 Speaker 1: He could come in and do some of the specialty 1329 01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:45,400 Speaker 1: things on defense, covering backs side of the backfield. He 1330 01:12:45,560 --> 01:12:50,639 Speaker 1: tackles very well, explosive when he's fully healthy. Dylan Cole 1331 01:12:50,760 --> 01:12:53,320 Speaker 1: is a fun, fun dude to watch and a vital 1332 01:12:53,400 --> 01:12:57,679 Speaker 1: guy to have out on your defense.

We are moving being right along on this 1434 01:19:01,520 --> 01:19:04,880 Speaker 1: Friday edition of Texans All Access from the Hounday Texans 1435 01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:07,760 Speaker 1: Radio Studio. I am your host, John Harris footballs, a 1436 01:19:07,800 --> 01:19:12,439 Speaker 1: silent reporter and cannot wait to get to Friday. Like 1437 01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:15,200 Speaker 1: I said earlier, less than forty eight hours away, kicks 1438 01:19:15,240 --> 01:19:18,920 Speaker 1: at noon against the Jacksonville Jaguars, the one in three Jags, 1439 01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:21,400 Speaker 1: oh and four Texans. I hate saying that, but facts 1440 01:19:21,400 --> 01:19:24,040 Speaker 1: are facts, and you gotta go with it. So hopefully 1441 01:19:24,760 --> 01:19:29,880 Speaker 1: that losing streak ends stands at five games for this year, 1442 01:19:30,000 --> 01:19:33,800 Speaker 1: one in Kansas City. Oh gotta have this thing change, 1443 01:19:33,920 --> 01:19:38,840 Speaker 1: my goodness. I think it's what one's and five, one 1444 01:19:38,920 --> 01:19:42,759 Speaker 1: in six, one in seven, dating back to the Tennessee 1445 01:19:42,880 --> 01:19:45,800 Speaker 1: game in week seventeen. Obviously that was not a game 1446 01:19:45,840 --> 01:19:47,880 Speaker 1: in which all the starters played, So sometimes we just 1447 01:19:48,000 --> 01:19:50,760 Speaker 1: kind of gloss over that, but it's in the record 1448 01:19:50,800 --> 01:19:53,479 Speaker 1: books either way. Hopefully the Texans will get a win. 1449 01:19:53,600 --> 01:19:56,040 Speaker 1: The Texans are favored by five and a half. I 1450 01:19:56,080 --> 01:19:57,680 Speaker 1: think a numbers come down a little bit. I think 1451 01:19:57,680 --> 01:20:00,360 Speaker 1: it was at six and a half in so people 1452 01:20:00,400 --> 01:20:02,320 Speaker 1: firing on the Jags to get inside that five and 1453 01:20:02,360 --> 01:20:05,160 Speaker 1: a half. And look, I don't care what the Texans 1454 01:20:05,360 --> 01:20:09,360 Speaker 1: win by, just as long as it is a win 1455 01:20:09,760 --> 01:20:12,200 Speaker 1: for the Texans. So we've talked about all the different 1456 01:20:12,240 --> 01:20:14,400 Speaker 1: things that go into this Texans game. Let's talk about 1457 01:20:14,400 --> 01:20:19,320 Speaker 1: the rest of the league and do our predictions straight 1458 01:20:19,439 --> 01:20:21,840 Speaker 1: up and against the spread. I do this every single week. 1459 01:20:21,920 --> 01:20:24,519 Speaker 1: I think my winning percentage against both is like a 1460 01:20:24,640 --> 01:20:26,560 Speaker 1: ninety four point two. I mean, you can look it 1461 01:20:26,600 --> 01:20:28,000 Speaker 1: up if you want, or you can just trust me. 1462 01:20:28,320 --> 01:20:31,240 Speaker 1: It's like a ninety four point two, Like maybe like 1463 01:20:31,320 --> 01:20:34,320 Speaker 1: a ninety five after this week because I'm knocking knees 1464 01:20:34,360 --> 01:20:35,840 Speaker 1: out of the park and you can keep score if 1465 01:20:35,920 --> 01:20:40,320 Speaker 1: you want, but you know, and look, I'm fooling about that. 1466 01:20:40,760 --> 01:20:43,120 Speaker 1: Nobody gets ninety four point two against the spread. But 1467 01:20:43,240 --> 01:20:47,720 Speaker 1: I try, Oh do I try. I try. And we've 1468 01:20:47,760 --> 01:20:50,680 Speaker 1: only got thirteen games this week to pick from the 1469 01:20:50,840 --> 01:20:53,439 Speaker 1: Packers and the Lions are on buys. The Bucks and 1470 01:20:53,520 --> 01:20:56,920 Speaker 1: the Bears played on Thursday night. Is the Bears come 1471 01:20:57,000 --> 01:21:00,200 Speaker 1: from behind and win that one, twenty to nine. Team 1472 01:21:00,280 --> 01:21:03,720 Speaker 1: Cairo Santos the game winner for the Bears. Now four 1473 01:21:03,920 --> 01:21:07,600 Speaker 1: and one. And then and I don't know how to 1474 01:21:07,760 --> 01:21:12,840 Speaker 1: pick this game because it'll happen on Wednesday, but Bill's Titans. 1475 01:21:12,840 --> 01:21:14,800 Speaker 1: I guess we'll pick that one. I will even talk 1476 01:21:14,800 --> 01:21:19,200 Speaker 1: about it shoot on Wednesday All Access because as we're 1477 01:21:19,200 --> 01:21:21,120 Speaker 1: doing Wednesday All Access, that game will be kicking off 1478 01:21:21,120 --> 01:21:25,439 Speaker 1: at six o'clock. So yeah, wow, crazy times in the NFL, 1479 01:21:25,600 --> 01:21:29,519 Speaker 1: crazy crazy times. So let's focus on the games that 1480 01:21:29,600 --> 01:21:31,760 Speaker 1: are occurring this weekend, and if we have time, we'll 1481 01:21:31,760 --> 01:21:34,000 Speaker 1: get to that Wednesday one. We'll make it fast, all right. 1482 01:21:34,479 --> 01:21:37,439 Speaker 1: Before I get started, though, I need my music. I 1483 01:21:37,560 --> 01:21:41,040 Speaker 1: always have got to have my music. And there it is. 1484 01:21:41,240 --> 01:21:45,200 Speaker 1: So let's rock and we're gonna start. In the NFC South, 1485 01:21:45,840 --> 01:21:48,439 Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers are two and two. They want two 1486 01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:51,880 Speaker 1: in a row. Matt Rule doing more in that first 1487 01:21:52,000 --> 01:21:54,760 Speaker 1: year than a lot of people expected. He didn't even 1488 01:21:54,840 --> 01:21:57,799 Speaker 1: see the players that he was going to coach until 1489 01:21:58,080 --> 01:22:01,000 Speaker 1: training camp. That's amazing. What he has done in the 1490 01:22:01,080 --> 01:22:05,560 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks, getting wins against the Chargers. That 1491 01:22:05,680 --> 01:22:07,720 Speaker 1: was a great win against the Chargers. Then they won 1492 01:22:07,760 --> 01:22:10,120 Speaker 1: again last week to be two and two. They go 1493 01:22:10,200 --> 01:22:12,000 Speaker 1: on the road. It's not a long trip, but it's 1494 01:22:12,040 --> 01:22:14,960 Speaker 1: a trip nonetheless, to take on the Falcons, the snake 1495 01:22:15,040 --> 01:22:21,120 Speaker 1: bit Falcons oh and four. However, Vegas thinks fairly highly 1496 01:22:21,200 --> 01:22:23,600 Speaker 1: of the Falcons, or at least higher the Falcons and 1497 01:22:23,640 --> 01:22:26,400 Speaker 1: the Panthers. They've made the Falcons at one point five 1498 01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:29,799 Speaker 1: point and a half favorite at home taking on the Panthers. 1499 01:22:29,960 --> 01:22:32,040 Speaker 1: You know what, I'm gonna lay those points. That's nearly 1500 01:22:32,120 --> 01:22:35,080 Speaker 1: a pick them. I'm going with the Falcons to finally 1501 01:22:35,800 --> 01:22:39,360 Speaker 1: get a win. Panthers feel like the right team to 1502 01:22:39,479 --> 01:22:42,000 Speaker 1: say that against. Yes, the Falcons will give up some points, 1503 01:22:42,360 --> 01:22:44,360 Speaker 1: but I think the Panthers are going to struggle to 1504 01:22:44,439 --> 01:22:48,040 Speaker 1: stop the Falcons. This is high scoring thirty seven thirty 1505 01:22:48,120 --> 01:22:51,840 Speaker 1: five kind of stuff. But I'm taking the Falcons to win. 1506 01:22:51,880 --> 01:22:54,479 Speaker 1: I would say upset, but Falcons are favorite. So Falcons 1507 01:22:54,520 --> 01:22:57,760 Speaker 1: to win and cover that point and a half. Then 1508 01:22:57,840 --> 01:23:01,200 Speaker 1: we go out to the AFC west an Arrowhead Stadium 1509 01:23:01,400 --> 01:23:05,519 Speaker 1: noon kick as the Raiders take on the Chiefs. The 1510 01:23:05,640 --> 01:23:10,880 Speaker 1: Raiders look tremendous in a win over the Saints, but 1511 01:23:11,080 --> 01:23:14,960 Speaker 1: they've gotten they've been beat They were beaten last week 1512 01:23:15,200 --> 01:23:19,280 Speaker 1: soundly by the Buffalo Bills, and now they've got to 1513 01:23:19,360 --> 01:23:22,200 Speaker 1: face the Kansas City Chiefs. So the Raiders go on 1514 01:23:22,280 --> 01:23:23,960 Speaker 1: the road. Oh no, that was at home. They played 1515 01:23:23,960 --> 01:23:25,040 Speaker 1: the Bills at home. Now they got to go on 1516 01:23:25,080 --> 01:23:27,320 Speaker 1: the road and take on the Chiefs. The Chiefs with 1517 01:23:27,560 --> 01:23:31,680 Speaker 1: a Monday night win over the New England Patriots, a 1518 01:23:31,760 --> 01:23:34,800 Speaker 1: stripped down Patriots team due to some COVID issues, and 1519 01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:38,280 Speaker 1: they played that Monday afternoon or Monday early Monday evening. 1520 01:23:39,040 --> 01:23:42,240 Speaker 1: Chiefs pounded the Patriots. They'll pound the Raiders. Kan't see 1521 01:23:42,320 --> 01:23:45,000 Speaker 1: fair by eleven and a half the Chiefs the last 1522 01:23:45,080 --> 01:23:49,439 Speaker 1: two times against the Gruten Coach, Raiders exploded in the 1523 01:23:49,560 --> 01:23:51,960 Speaker 1: second quarter of the first game and the second half 1524 01:23:52,000 --> 01:23:54,439 Speaker 1: of the second game. Chiefs will win this and win 1525 01:23:54,520 --> 01:23:56,919 Speaker 1: it by more than eleven and a half. The Cardinals 1526 01:23:57,600 --> 01:24:00,160 Speaker 1: go to the Jets. I don't even know if I 1527 01:24:00,280 --> 01:24:02,880 Speaker 1: want to spend any time at all talking about the Jets, 1528 01:24:03,439 --> 01:24:06,639 Speaker 1: who on Friday morning found out they have a COVID 1529 01:24:07,800 --> 01:24:12,639 Speaker 1: positive test. Everybody's cleared out. I would imagine just with one. 1530 01:24:12,800 --> 01:24:16,000 Speaker 1: As long as they can contract trace contact trace, they'll 1531 01:24:16,040 --> 01:24:18,759 Speaker 1: be okay to play. But as of now, the Cardinals 1532 01:24:18,880 --> 01:24:22,760 Speaker 1: are favored by seven on the road. Even though the 1533 01:24:22,800 --> 01:24:25,760 Speaker 1: Cardinals have lost the last couple of ball games to 1534 01:24:25,920 --> 01:24:29,400 Speaker 1: the Lions, and they also lost last week to the 1535 01:24:29,600 --> 01:24:31,439 Speaker 1: Panthers on the road. Now they gotta go on the 1536 01:24:31,560 --> 01:24:34,200 Speaker 1: road again. I do think they'll win this game. I'm 1537 01:24:34,200 --> 01:24:36,280 Speaker 1: gonna give the Jets a little bit of credit. No, 1538 01:24:36,400 --> 01:24:38,800 Speaker 1: I'm not. Joe Flacco's playing quarterback. The Jets are gonna 1539 01:24:38,840 --> 01:24:41,000 Speaker 1: get hammered. The Cardinals will win that by two touchdowns. 1540 01:24:41,080 --> 01:24:44,400 Speaker 1: Take the Cardinals to win and to cover, then it's 1541 01:24:44,439 --> 01:24:47,080 Speaker 1: the Stiegles. If you don't know this story, back in 1542 01:24:47,120 --> 01:24:50,479 Speaker 1: the forties, when World War Two was going on, the 1543 01:24:50,600 --> 01:24:55,759 Speaker 1: Steelers and the Eagles actually pulled their resources, came together 1544 01:24:55,840 --> 01:24:59,200 Speaker 1: as one team, and they were named the Stiegles. Well, 1545 01:24:59,439 --> 01:25:04,280 Speaker 1: the Eagle lead the AFC. The Steelers are three and 1546 01:25:04,360 --> 01:25:06,120 Speaker 1: oh and been off for a week because of the 1547 01:25:06,160 --> 01:25:09,800 Speaker 1: COVID situation that hit the Titans. The Eagles are a 1548 01:25:10,040 --> 01:25:12,000 Speaker 1: seven point dog at home. I think Pittsburgh, with the 1549 01:25:12,040 --> 01:25:15,760 Speaker 1: rest and playing at home, will get this win over 1550 01:25:15,880 --> 01:25:18,400 Speaker 1: the Eagles. Eagles fall to one three and one, Steelers 1551 01:25:18,479 --> 01:25:21,360 Speaker 1: get the four and oh and the Pittsburgh Steelers will 1552 01:25:21,400 --> 01:25:25,679 Speaker 1: cover those seven points. Next we go to Washington, DC 1553 01:25:26,520 --> 01:25:30,360 Speaker 1: or wherever it is that FedEx Field is. I believe 1554 01:25:30,360 --> 01:25:32,320 Speaker 1: that's in Lando, or it's not really watching DC, but 1555 01:25:32,400 --> 01:25:35,639 Speaker 1: you get the point. It's the Washington football team hosting 1556 01:25:35,880 --> 01:25:39,320 Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Rams. This is a battle George Allen 1557 01:25:39,439 --> 01:25:43,680 Speaker 1: would absolutely have loved, as he coached both teams back 1558 01:25:43,760 --> 01:25:47,360 Speaker 1: in the sixties and seventies. The Rams are three and one, 1559 01:25:47,600 --> 01:25:52,439 Speaker 1: playing some excellent football. Outside of last week. They did 1560 01:25:52,520 --> 01:25:56,320 Speaker 1: not play exceedingly well against the Giants, but they got 1561 01:25:56,400 --> 01:25:59,800 Speaker 1: a seventeen to nine win. The Washington football team sits 1562 01:25:59,800 --> 01:26:03,240 Speaker 1: at one and three is the offense cannot get cranked up, 1563 01:26:03,680 --> 01:26:07,880 Speaker 1: which precipitated a change a quarterback is Kyle Allen moves 1564 01:26:07,920 --> 01:26:10,280 Speaker 1: in as the starter for the Washington football team against 1565 01:26:10,320 --> 01:26:12,840 Speaker 1: the Rams on the road. The Rams are a seven 1566 01:26:12,920 --> 01:26:16,559 Speaker 1: point favorite. I just don't see the Washington football team 1567 01:26:16,760 --> 01:26:20,920 Speaker 1: scoring points in this one. I do think that the 1568 01:26:21,040 --> 01:26:24,560 Speaker 1: Washington pass rush getting Chase Young back this week is 1569 01:26:24,600 --> 01:26:27,880 Speaker 1: going to be a problem for Jared Goff, But the 1570 01:26:28,080 --> 01:26:31,320 Speaker 1: Rams find ways to put points on the board. Let's 1571 01:26:31,800 --> 01:26:36,160 Speaker 1: give the Rams a win and a cover. This feels 1572 01:26:36,200 --> 01:26:38,760 Speaker 1: twenty to ten, thirty to twenty out, thirty twenty two high. 1573 01:26:38,800 --> 01:26:41,960 Speaker 1: Twenty to ten sounds about right, maybe even seventeen to seven. 1574 01:26:42,120 --> 01:26:45,519 Speaker 1: But it's a ten point win for the Rams on 1575 01:26:45,680 --> 01:26:49,760 Speaker 1: the road against the Washington football team about forty five 1576 01:26:49,880 --> 01:26:54,160 Speaker 1: miles away. We've got an AFC North battle. Oh I 1577 01:26:54,240 --> 01:26:57,280 Speaker 1: thought this might be a blowout originally, Well, Vegas thinks 1578 01:26:57,320 --> 01:26:59,880 Speaker 1: it's still going to be a blowout as the bank 1579 01:27:00,040 --> 01:27:03,040 Speaker 1: Goals take on the Ravens. The Bengals get a win 1580 01:27:03,200 --> 01:27:06,639 Speaker 1: last week over the Jaguars. Joey b gets his first win. 1581 01:27:07,040 --> 01:27:08,880 Speaker 1: They win thirty three to twenty five. The one thing 1582 01:27:08,920 --> 01:27:11,760 Speaker 1: about the Bengals this year, as opposed to other years, 1583 01:27:12,120 --> 01:27:15,759 Speaker 1: they could score Now the Ravens defense is a whole 1584 01:27:16,040 --> 01:27:21,479 Speaker 1: different animal, and they're playing at home. However, Mark Jackson's 1585 01:27:21,520 --> 01:27:23,280 Speaker 1: been banged up, do you a little bit of a knee? 1586 01:27:23,520 --> 01:27:25,880 Speaker 1: And then he got sick earlier in the week. It 1587 01:27:25,920 --> 01:27:28,160 Speaker 1: doesn't matter to Vegas though Vegas has got Baltimore is 1588 01:27:28,160 --> 01:27:30,000 Speaker 1: a twelve and a half point favorite. I think it 1589 01:27:30,120 --> 01:27:33,120 Speaker 1: stays within the twelve and a half. I think Cincinnati 1590 01:27:33,200 --> 01:27:36,080 Speaker 1: puts up twenty. I think it's thirty one to twenty. 1591 01:27:36,360 --> 01:27:39,559 Speaker 1: I think the Ravens win the ball game. Great for them, 1592 01:27:40,040 --> 01:27:42,840 Speaker 1: but I don't think they'd go ballistic and score forty nine. 1593 01:27:43,000 --> 01:27:45,320 Speaker 1: I think they get the thirty one. I think Joey 1594 01:27:45,439 --> 01:27:47,680 Speaker 1: b maybe with a backdoor cover. Either way, they get 1595 01:27:47,720 --> 01:27:50,960 Speaker 1: inside the twelve and a half as the Baltimore Ravens win, 1596 01:27:51,280 --> 01:27:54,760 Speaker 1: but the Bengals cover. All right, Let's move to our 1597 01:27:54,840 --> 01:27:59,960 Speaker 1: afternoon games and start in San Francisco or Santa Clair 1598 01:28:00,360 --> 01:28:03,439 Speaker 1: be more exact, where the Dolphins go back on the 1599 01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:07,280 Speaker 1: road and take on the San Francisco forty nine Ers. 1600 01:28:07,560 --> 01:28:10,280 Speaker 1: The forty nine Ers got two wins ins up in 1601 01:28:10,320 --> 01:28:13,479 Speaker 1: the Big Apple or New Jersey, whichever way you want 1602 01:28:13,479 --> 01:28:15,040 Speaker 1: to look at it. But then they came back home 1603 01:28:15,280 --> 01:28:17,680 Speaker 1: for a match up with the Eagles. Eagles had won 1604 01:28:17,680 --> 01:28:20,680 Speaker 1: a game all year, playing a patchwork offensive line, no 1605 01:28:20,840 --> 01:28:23,960 Speaker 1: receivers are healthy, and Carson Wentz and the Eagles came 1606 01:28:24,000 --> 01:28:27,640 Speaker 1: out of there with a win against the Niners. I 1607 01:28:27,800 --> 01:28:30,320 Speaker 1: do not think the Dolphins are able to do that 1608 01:28:30,840 --> 01:28:34,840 Speaker 1: this weekend. Fitz, he keeps it close. Niners get the win, 1609 01:28:35,280 --> 01:28:37,759 Speaker 1: so nine and a half points spread. Take the Niners 1610 01:28:37,800 --> 01:28:40,840 Speaker 1: to win, Dolphins to get inside that nine and a half. 1611 01:28:40,960 --> 01:28:44,320 Speaker 1: This will be a little bit closer than it appears. 1612 01:28:44,760 --> 01:28:46,360 Speaker 1: Even though the forty nineers have had a number of 1613 01:28:46,400 --> 01:28:50,080 Speaker 1: injuries this year, Bill get through three and two with 1614 01:28:50,240 --> 01:28:52,519 Speaker 1: a win over the Dolphins yet and given the Dolphins 1615 01:28:52,600 --> 01:28:55,599 Speaker 1: a cover as they fall to one and four this game. 1616 01:28:55,920 --> 01:28:58,479 Speaker 1: When it was first on the schedule, I don't think 1617 01:28:58,560 --> 01:29:03,040 Speaker 1: much was made of it. It's Browns. You know, Indianapolis, Cleveland, 1618 01:29:03,200 --> 01:29:04,840 Speaker 1: you know the Midwest. That's the only area that's going 1619 01:29:04,920 --> 01:29:08,719 Speaker 1: to care about this one. Now it's different. Both teams 1620 01:29:08,960 --> 01:29:12,559 Speaker 1: are three and one. The Colts doing it with defense, 1621 01:29:13,120 --> 01:29:17,920 Speaker 1: the Browns doing it with an explosive offense under Kevin Stefanski. 1622 01:29:18,600 --> 01:29:21,120 Speaker 1: This is in Cleveland, Indianapolis is favored by one, so 1623 01:29:21,200 --> 01:29:24,559 Speaker 1: it's basically a pick them. I think in situations where 1624 01:29:24,680 --> 01:29:29,200 Speaker 1: defense against offense, I will go defense. I think the 1625 01:29:29,240 --> 01:29:31,479 Speaker 1: Colts defense gets it done. I think the Browns have 1626 01:29:31,560 --> 01:29:34,439 Speaker 1: a hard time in stopping the Colts in full even 1627 01:29:34,439 --> 01:29:37,840 Speaker 1: though the Colts offense is not there is the explosive 1628 01:29:38,040 --> 01:29:40,280 Speaker 1: unit we saw a couple of years ago with Andrew Luck. 1629 01:29:40,560 --> 01:29:43,120 Speaker 1: I think the Colts will do enough to get a win. 1630 01:29:43,840 --> 01:29:46,840 Speaker 1: Let's go twenty eight twenty four. That feels a little high. 1631 01:29:46,880 --> 01:29:49,519 Speaker 1: Maybe I'll go twenty one seventeen. Either way, the Colts 1632 01:29:49,600 --> 01:29:53,040 Speaker 1: get to win on the road at Cleveland, even though 1633 01:29:53,720 --> 01:29:57,960 Speaker 1: let's go Browns. Then we go back to Arlington, where 1634 01:29:57,960 --> 01:30:01,519 Speaker 1: it's an NFC Least battle. I shouldn't say too much 1635 01:30:01,560 --> 01:30:04,160 Speaker 1: because the AFC South is well. AFC South actually has 1636 01:30:04,160 --> 01:30:06,080 Speaker 1: got an undefeated team in three one team so to 1637 01:30:06,479 --> 01:30:07,800 Speaker 1: heck a lot better than what's going on to the 1638 01:30:07,880 --> 01:30:10,160 Speaker 1: NFC East, where the Cowboys are a half game out 1639 01:30:10,200 --> 01:30:13,400 Speaker 1: of first at one in three. The Giants are oh 1640 01:30:13,479 --> 01:30:16,560 Speaker 1: and four, still looking for a win the first and 1641 01:30:16,720 --> 01:30:19,639 Speaker 1: Joe Judges head coaching career, Dallas is favored by eight. 1642 01:30:19,680 --> 01:30:22,439 Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys pound the Giants. The Cowboys are 1643 01:30:22,479 --> 01:30:24,640 Speaker 1: the type of team right now taking it out on 1644 01:30:24,720 --> 01:30:27,640 Speaker 1: the weaklings and then struggling with the better teams. The 1645 01:30:27,720 --> 01:30:29,960 Speaker 1: Cowboys are gonna pound. The Giants still win by three 1646 01:30:30,040 --> 01:30:32,680 Speaker 1: touchdowns at home, so they'll cover the eight and the 1647 01:30:32,720 --> 01:30:39,280 Speaker 1: Cowboys with the win. Sunday night in Seattle, the Seattle 1648 01:30:39,360 --> 01:30:44,040 Speaker 1: Seahawks taking on the Minnesota Vikings. Now one thing and 1649 01:30:44,200 --> 01:30:47,240 Speaker 1: just thinking about the Vikings, and this is where in 1650 01:30:47,400 --> 01:30:50,240 Speaker 1: some sense, if you play box score Hero, if you 1651 01:30:50,320 --> 01:30:52,960 Speaker 1: just look at the schedule, well, the Vikings aren't very good. 1652 01:30:53,000 --> 01:30:55,120 Speaker 1: They're oh in three. Well, yeah, they scored thirty in 1653 01:30:55,200 --> 01:30:57,280 Speaker 1: the thirty plus in the first game, lost the Green 1654 01:30:57,320 --> 01:30:59,920 Speaker 1: Bay who's on the feed and smashing everybody. They score 1655 01:31:00,479 --> 01:31:04,040 Speaker 1: thirty and should have eaten the Titans in their third game, 1656 01:31:04,479 --> 01:31:07,559 Speaker 1: and they scored thirty one against US. He held us 1657 01:31:07,560 --> 01:31:09,120 Speaker 1: to twenty three to get the first win. So the 1658 01:31:09,200 --> 01:31:12,920 Speaker 1: three losses the Vikings have had having really good football teams. 1659 01:31:13,840 --> 01:31:17,559 Speaker 1: They're a good football team defensively, maybe not what they 1660 01:31:17,600 --> 01:31:20,640 Speaker 1: once were, but they don't get they don't beat themselves 1661 01:31:20,840 --> 01:31:24,479 Speaker 1: for the most part. The Seahawks are flying high. No 1662 01:31:24,640 --> 01:31:27,360 Speaker 1: pun attended. I think Seahawks at high. Yeah, either way, 1663 01:31:27,439 --> 01:31:30,439 Speaker 1: the Seahawks are playing very very well. DK Metcalf has 1664 01:31:30,439 --> 01:31:32,599 Speaker 1: turned into one of the young stars in this league. 1665 01:31:32,920 --> 01:31:36,400 Speaker 1: David Moore makes clutch catches for the Seahawks, and they 1666 01:31:36,439 --> 01:31:38,840 Speaker 1: showed all that in a win over Miami. I think 1667 01:31:38,920 --> 01:31:42,040 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson gets a win in this one. And the 1668 01:31:42,120 --> 01:31:43,760 Speaker 1: spread is right at what I thought it would be. 1669 01:31:43,760 --> 01:31:46,760 Speaker 1: It's right at seven for Seattle. I'm gonna give a 1670 01:31:46,760 --> 01:31:49,679 Speaker 1: Seattle to win, but I'm gonna give the Vikings the cover. 1671 01:31:49,800 --> 01:31:52,560 Speaker 1: I think the Vikings sneak in there and make this 1672 01:31:52,720 --> 01:31:55,760 Speaker 1: one closer than the experts think. So I'm given the 1673 01:31:55,920 --> 01:31:59,000 Speaker 1: Vikings the cover, but the Seahawks the win. Seahawks go 1674 01:31:59,080 --> 01:32:02,160 Speaker 1: to five and ohs of Vikings fall to one and four. 1675 01:32:02,479 --> 01:32:07,440 Speaker 1: Then on Monday, this is where it gets kind of exciting, 1676 01:32:07,560 --> 01:32:10,080 Speaker 1: if you will. Two Monday night games, two Monday games 1677 01:32:10,439 --> 01:32:14,840 Speaker 1: at four o'clock Central, the Broncos take on the Patriots. 1678 01:32:16,120 --> 01:32:18,040 Speaker 1: Because of some of the COVID issues, they move this 1679 01:32:18,240 --> 01:32:20,680 Speaker 1: back a little bit. Cam Newton still not back for 1680 01:32:20,760 --> 01:32:24,040 Speaker 1: the Patriots. The Broncos at one in three. They need 1681 01:32:24,080 --> 01:32:26,559 Speaker 1: Drew locked back. But the Broncos got a big win 1682 01:32:27,040 --> 01:32:30,720 Speaker 1: last Thursday against the Jets. That was huge for that 1683 01:32:30,880 --> 01:32:33,800 Speaker 1: team to get that win. Now they've got to take 1684 01:32:33,800 --> 01:32:35,880 Speaker 1: on New England. There's no spread on this game. It's 1685 01:32:35,880 --> 01:32:37,639 Speaker 1: gonna be I think this is gonna be really close. 1686 01:32:38,040 --> 01:32:40,800 Speaker 1: This feels like seventeen sixteen, twenty four, twenty three, very 1687 01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:42,599 Speaker 1: very close. I think the spread if they had one 1688 01:32:42,640 --> 01:32:47,599 Speaker 1: would be just that it would be extremely close. No idea. 1689 01:32:47,640 --> 01:32:49,920 Speaker 1: Who the Patriots will play quarterback. Maybe they rotate. Maybe 1690 01:32:49,960 --> 01:32:52,599 Speaker 1: it's Hoyer, maybe it Stidham, maybe it's both. I don't 1691 01:32:52,640 --> 01:32:55,080 Speaker 1: know what they'll do at quarterback, but I think it'll 1692 01:32:55,120 --> 01:33:00,360 Speaker 1: be just enough. Just enough. The Patriots get to win 1693 01:33:00,400 --> 01:33:04,519 Speaker 1: over the Broncos. Later on Monday night, the Chargers travel 1694 01:33:04,640 --> 01:33:07,920 Speaker 1: to the Saints. The Chargers will start Justin Herbert. He 1695 01:33:08,040 --> 01:33:10,920 Speaker 1: is the starter forevermore and he might be the starter 1696 01:33:11,040 --> 01:33:13,400 Speaker 1: for the next fifteen to twenty years. Who knows for 1697 01:33:13,600 --> 01:33:17,360 Speaker 1: the Chargers. And he has been pretty darn good against 1698 01:33:17,400 --> 01:33:22,080 Speaker 1: the defenses that he faced. The Saints up and down, 1699 01:33:23,080 --> 01:33:26,040 Speaker 1: smashed when smashed, which wind. They're all kind of over 1700 01:33:26,080 --> 01:33:28,599 Speaker 1: the place. But playing at home, New Orleans is eight 1701 01:33:28,680 --> 01:33:32,320 Speaker 1: point favorite. I think LA gets inside that number. I 1702 01:33:32,400 --> 01:33:35,120 Speaker 1: think the Saints get to win, but the Chargers get 1703 01:33:35,160 --> 01:33:37,640 Speaker 1: inside that eight. And then Wednesday, the Bills take on 1704 01:33:37,720 --> 01:33:40,960 Speaker 1: the Titans. And I love it that it's a Wednesday game. 1705 01:33:41,080 --> 01:33:44,280 Speaker 1: It's the game that day, and it's two teams that 1706 01:33:44,360 --> 01:33:46,680 Speaker 1: are undefeated. And I love it even more because the 1707 01:33:46,720 --> 01:33:49,880 Speaker 1: Texans will go to Tennessee that following Sunday. The game's 1708 01:33:49,920 --> 01:33:53,920 Speaker 1: in Tennessee. I trust the Bills. I trust Josh Allen. Now, 1709 01:33:54,200 --> 01:33:56,160 Speaker 1: I think the Bills are gonna wax the Titans, and 1710 01:33:56,200 --> 01:33:58,479 Speaker 1: then we're gonna turn right around. We're gonna win this weekend, 1711 01:33:58,640 --> 01:34:00,320 Speaker 1: and then we're gonna go Tennessee and beat them and 1712 01:34:00,400 --> 01:34:02,479 Speaker 1: get the two and three on a year before two 1713 01:34:02,520 --> 01:34:04,120 Speaker 1: and four and a year before we take on the 1714 01:34:04,160 --> 01:34:06,200 Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers. That's the way I see it. So 1715 01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:10,200 Speaker 1: Bills to win that game on the road, and that'll 1716 01:34:10,200 --> 01:34:12,680 Speaker 1: be a big win for them. Okay, we get to 1717 01:34:12,760 --> 01:34:15,880 Speaker 1: the final segment of the show. It's always Jew's final word. 1718 01:34:16,240 --> 01:34:20,519 Speaker 1: This week it's Dylan Cole stepping in with Drew.

Guys, we'd get 1825 01:40:38,479 --> 01:40:43,160 Speaker 1: ready for Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. All right, we 1826 01:40:43,280 --> 01:40:46,040 Speaker 1: have Jews final word coming up. But I figured we'd 1827 01:40:46,120 --> 01:40:48,960 Speaker 1: hear from some other players who actually spoke at the 1828 01:40:49,040 --> 01:40:55,200 Speaker 1: podium today. So how about a little Texans Audio JUKEBOXX. Yeah. 1829 01:40:55,280 --> 01:40:58,280 Speaker 1: I don't like to sing. Actually I kind of like 1830 01:40:58,439 --> 01:41:02,400 Speaker 1: to sing. Let's hear from Justin Reid who spoke to 1831 01:41:02,520 --> 01:41:07,200 Speaker 1: the media today, and he talked about transition in the 1832 01:41:07,520 --> 01:41:11,559 Speaker 1: organization as a player. That can be kind of hard. 1833 01:41:11,960 --> 01:41:14,160 Speaker 1: I go back to my instance when I was in college, 1834 01:41:15,320 --> 01:41:18,040 Speaker 1: my coaching staff got fired at the end of my 1835 01:41:18,160 --> 01:41:20,639 Speaker 1: college career. I mean I felt guilt, I felt bad, 1836 01:41:21,160 --> 01:41:22,600 Speaker 1: but I didn't have to go back and play for 1837 01:41:22,680 --> 01:41:26,280 Speaker 1: a new coaching staff. Justin and company are in the 1838 01:41:26,479 --> 01:41:29,040 Speaker 1: year and they got to play for a new head coach. Now, 1839 01:41:29,320 --> 01:41:31,479 Speaker 1: luckily it's somebody that they know and they know well. 1840 01:41:31,760 --> 01:41:35,080 Speaker 1: But Justin talked about what it's like to be a 1841 01:41:35,200 --> 01:41:40,320 Speaker 1: player going through a transition in the organization. This is different, 1842 01:41:40,760 --> 01:41:42,519 Speaker 1: you know, my first time I ever going through something 1843 01:41:42,640 --> 01:41:44,840 Speaker 1: like this. But coach Carnell has done a good job 1844 01:41:44,920 --> 01:41:46,720 Speaker 1: coming up and being up to the job. And you know, 1845 01:41:46,880 --> 01:41:49,040 Speaker 1: we as players has just been attacking a challenge, just 1846 01:41:49,120 --> 01:41:51,240 Speaker 1: making sure we're still doing our due diligence getting ready 1847 01:41:51,240 --> 01:41:53,519 Speaker 1: to play Jacksonville. That's where the focus has been all 1848 01:41:53,560 --> 01:41:55,760 Speaker 1: week on both sides of the ball, try and go 1849 01:41:55,840 --> 01:41:58,320 Speaker 1: get our first win. One of the key aspects that 1850 01:41:59,000 --> 01:42:01,679 Speaker 1: I know the defense has been focused on ever since 1851 01:42:01,760 --> 01:42:05,839 Speaker 1: Week one when they missed twenty tackles has been tackling. 1852 01:42:06,360 --> 01:42:08,679 Speaker 1: And it's got to be so hard that the one 1853 01:42:08,840 --> 01:42:10,640 Speaker 1: thing that you need to be able to do on 1854 01:42:10,720 --> 01:42:14,200 Speaker 1: our football field you really can't practice any other time. 1855 01:42:14,280 --> 01:42:16,280 Speaker 1: I mean, think about it. If you play basketball, you 1856 01:42:16,320 --> 01:42:19,760 Speaker 1: can go shoot free throw, shoot threes any time of 1857 01:42:19,800 --> 01:42:23,160 Speaker 1: the day. If your picture you go buy yourself, just 1858 01:42:23,200 --> 01:42:24,600 Speaker 1: throw the ball into the wall. If you want it 1859 01:42:24,640 --> 01:42:28,000 Speaker 1: to be working on pitching techniques, hitting same thing. You 1860 01:42:28,080 --> 01:42:30,360 Speaker 1: could go to a batting cage. You'd be the same thing. 1861 01:42:31,280 --> 01:42:33,200 Speaker 1: Very rarely can you go out and find your buddy 1862 01:42:33,200 --> 01:42:35,400 Speaker 1: to say, hey, can I tackle you so I can 1863 01:42:35,520 --> 01:42:37,360 Speaker 1: practice and work on my tackling technique. And it just 1864 01:42:37,439 --> 01:42:39,680 Speaker 1: doesn't go that way. So you gotta gotta play your 1865 01:42:39,760 --> 01:42:44,000 Speaker 1: way into being good tacklers. And Justin talked about how 1866 01:42:44,040 --> 01:42:46,320 Speaker 1: the tackling is coming along. Yeah, I think it's better. 1867 01:42:47,080 --> 01:42:48,960 Speaker 1: I would treat like the first three games of the 1868 01:42:49,000 --> 01:42:52,240 Speaker 1: season like your per se preseason games as far as 1869 01:42:52,360 --> 01:42:55,680 Speaker 1: the tackling goes. So we're past that, guys, should you know, 1870 01:42:55,800 --> 01:42:57,880 Speaker 1: be in good shape? We should, you know, every team 1871 01:42:57,880 --> 01:42:59,479 Speaker 1: across the lead still touch on it every once in 1872 01:42:59,520 --> 01:43:01,599 Speaker 1: a while they start to see any bad habits start 1873 01:43:01,600 --> 01:43:03,840 Speaker 1: to creep up on the tape. Rather than that now, 1874 01:43:03,880 --> 01:43:05,960 Speaker 1: I don't think tackling should be too big of an 1875 01:43:06,000 --> 01:43:08,360 Speaker 1: issue more than it is any other year. Of course, 1876 01:43:08,439 --> 01:43:11,200 Speaker 1: with the changes the team has been going through this week, 1877 01:43:12,080 --> 01:43:16,479 Speaker 1: I would imagine it's commonplace to wonder what practice has 1878 01:43:16,520 --> 01:43:19,160 Speaker 1: been like this week, and we all wanted what it 1879 01:43:19,280 --> 01:43:23,040 Speaker 1: was like, and Justin responded to that question in kind. Yeah, 1880 01:43:23,120 --> 01:43:26,040 Speaker 1: it is a little bit different, but the main focus 1881 01:43:26,120 --> 01:43:28,840 Speaker 1: has been treating things as consistent as possible. We still 1882 01:43:28,880 --> 01:43:31,080 Speaker 1: do the same one up, We have the same coaches, 1883 01:43:31,120 --> 01:43:33,560 Speaker 1: game planning. We try and keep everything as normal and 1884 01:43:33,640 --> 01:43:36,240 Speaker 1: seamless as we possibly can in order to just keep 1885 01:43:36,280 --> 01:43:39,639 Speaker 1: the focus on Jacksonville and not on the changes that's 1886 01:43:39,680 --> 01:43:41,760 Speaker 1: happening on the inside of the building. You know, that's 1887 01:43:41,800 --> 01:43:44,080 Speaker 1: out of our control as players, that's out of the 1888 01:43:44,120 --> 01:43:47,360 Speaker 1: coach's control. All we can do is band together as 1889 01:43:47,400 --> 01:43:50,160 Speaker 1: a unit and go make some plays and try and 1890 01:43:50,200 --> 01:43:53,240 Speaker 1: get a win. Look, I'm sure this has been a 1891 01:43:53,720 --> 01:43:56,360 Speaker 1: pretty tough week for the players, just from the standpoint 1892 01:43:56,400 --> 01:44:00,599 Speaker 1: of being asked constantly from the media out and about 1893 01:44:00,760 --> 01:44:03,719 Speaker 1: whether they're at a grocery store, whether they're at a restaurant, 1894 01:44:03,800 --> 01:44:06,519 Speaker 1: wherever they are. Hey, what's going on with you guys? 1895 01:44:06,600 --> 01:44:08,800 Speaker 1: What's happening? How can you guys can't win? You know 1896 01:44:08,800 --> 01:44:11,200 Speaker 1: what about coach O'Brien. Why then all these kind of 1897 01:44:11,280 --> 01:44:15,920 Speaker 1: questions and Justin's really got the right mindset for all 1898 01:44:16,000 --> 01:44:17,880 Speaker 1: of us. Me and Mark, I mean, we get asked 1899 01:44:17,880 --> 01:44:21,880 Speaker 1: about it too. Staff members, coaches, players are all getting 1900 01:44:21,880 --> 01:44:24,280 Speaker 1: asked about it. Hey, what happened? What was the deal? 1901 01:44:24,840 --> 01:44:27,040 Speaker 1: Let's put our head down and go to work. That's 1902 01:44:27,080 --> 01:44:28,479 Speaker 1: what we gotta do. We got to do our jobs. 1903 01:44:28,520 --> 01:44:32,000 Speaker 1: None of our jobs changed. Our jobs are call the game, 1904 01:44:32,160 --> 01:44:34,519 Speaker 1: play the game, coach the game, do what you have 1905 01:44:34,600 --> 01:44:36,000 Speaker 1: to do to prepare for the game. And that's what 1906 01:44:36,040 --> 01:44:38,800 Speaker 1: we're doing. That's what we've got to do. And the 1907 01:44:38,880 --> 01:44:40,800 Speaker 1: only thing different on Sunday is the fact that Romeo 1908 01:44:40,880 --> 01:44:44,000 Speaker 1: Cornell is head coach, Bill O'Brian's no longer here, and 1909 01:44:44,200 --> 01:44:46,040 Speaker 1: now these guys that go up, they've got to go 1910 01:44:46,080 --> 01:44:48,880 Speaker 1: out and play and make plays. And I think that's 1911 01:44:48,920 --> 01:44:51,800 Speaker 1: what Justice is essentially saying, Look, we can't control that. 1912 01:44:51,880 --> 01:44:54,080 Speaker 1: We just gotta go play. We gotta go do our thing, 1913 01:44:54,680 --> 01:44:57,639 Speaker 1: band together and go get a win. And I think 1914 01:44:57,680 --> 01:45:00,920 Speaker 1: he's dead on. All right, let's spend the audio jukebox 1915 01:45:01,120 --> 01:45:06,560 Speaker 1: dial and let's go to w R one three and 1916 01:45:06,720 --> 01:45:11,560 Speaker 1: that would be Branding Cooks. Brandon Cooks talk to the 1917 01:45:11,640 --> 01:45:18,560 Speaker 1: media on Friday, and the one thing that he was 1918 01:45:18,720 --> 01:45:23,880 Speaker 1: asked was about the lack of explosive plays. They've had 1919 01:45:23,880 --> 01:45:27,559 Speaker 1: a lot of intermediate plays, but other than Will's long 1920 01:45:27,720 --> 01:45:30,400 Speaker 1: catch other day and Brandon's catch against the Ravens, they 1921 01:45:30,439 --> 01:45:33,200 Speaker 1: really haven't had a lot of explosive plays. There's a 1922 01:45:33,280 --> 01:45:38,280 Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks had to say about that. I don't know shooting. 1923 01:45:38,360 --> 01:45:40,160 Speaker 1: I mean, at the end of the day, I think 1924 01:45:40,200 --> 01:45:42,240 Speaker 1: it's just one of those things. Just got to figure 1925 01:45:42,360 --> 01:45:45,240 Speaker 1: out how to get the ball away. I don't think 1926 01:45:45,280 --> 01:45:47,880 Speaker 1: it's anything defenses are doing, you know, That's one of 1927 01:45:47,920 --> 01:45:49,599 Speaker 1: the things we just got to continue to figure out 1928 01:45:49,600 --> 01:45:51,960 Speaker 1: as we move forward. And this goes to my point 1929 01:45:52,040 --> 01:46:00,200 Speaker 1: that I said earlier, go take, go, dictate, don't just well, 1930 01:46:00,240 --> 01:46:03,000 Speaker 1: they're giving us this, let's take it now. Look, I'm 1931 01:46:03,080 --> 01:46:06,280 Speaker 1: never gonna turn down profit, never gonna turn it down. 1932 01:46:07,240 --> 01:46:09,880 Speaker 1: But if you take too little profit, you're not gonna 1933 01:46:09,960 --> 01:46:13,240 Speaker 1: end up getting to the end goal. Sometimes you have 1934 01:46:13,320 --> 01:46:15,680 Speaker 1: to go out and snatch the big profit and you 1935 01:46:15,800 --> 01:46:18,519 Speaker 1: gotta force the issue. And maybe that's something that Texas 1936 01:46:18,560 --> 01:46:20,240 Speaker 1: has gotta do. Maybe they gotta force the issue down 1937 01:46:20,280 --> 01:46:24,400 Speaker 1: the field. Just go take it, go dictate, don't just 1938 01:46:25,120 --> 01:46:28,080 Speaker 1: well settle. If that makes sense, I think that's kind 1939 01:46:28,120 --> 01:46:29,840 Speaker 1: of what Brandon is saying is we got to figure 1940 01:46:29,840 --> 01:46:34,120 Speaker 1: it out. But I'm saying, go tack it, go get it, 1941 01:46:35,520 --> 01:46:38,080 Speaker 1: and I think that's what the Texans will do, hopefully 1942 01:46:38,439 --> 01:46:43,719 Speaker 1: in the near future. Now. Brandon was also talking about 1943 01:46:43,760 --> 01:46:48,320 Speaker 1: a guy that he knows pretty well, Jack Easterby. A 1944 01:46:48,400 --> 01:46:51,240 Speaker 1: lot of questions about Jack this week because all that's 1945 01:46:51,280 --> 01:46:53,640 Speaker 1: gone on and Brandon knows it from his time with 1946 01:46:53,760 --> 01:46:56,519 Speaker 1: New England. What Brandon Cooks had to say about Jack Easterby, 1947 01:46:56,840 --> 01:46:59,400 Speaker 1: you know, I think, first and foremost my time with 1948 01:46:59,560 --> 01:47:01,800 Speaker 1: Jack in New England and here is and being nothing 1949 01:47:01,840 --> 01:47:05,120 Speaker 1: but amazing. M as far as you know, finding himself 1950 01:47:05,200 --> 01:47:07,840 Speaker 1: where he is now, I think just at the point 1951 01:47:07,880 --> 01:47:10,160 Speaker 1: that we are, you know, that's what happens. But at 1952 01:47:10,160 --> 01:47:12,320 Speaker 1: the end of the day, you know, he's a great man, 1953 01:47:12,840 --> 01:47:15,240 Speaker 1: been nothing but great to me. That's a guy that 1954 01:47:15,360 --> 01:47:17,639 Speaker 1: I think is gonna be great, you know, moving forward, 1955 01:47:17,680 --> 01:47:20,040 Speaker 1: whatever that looks like. But you know, that's a question 1956 01:47:20,160 --> 01:47:23,240 Speaker 1: for Jack and the honer. I'm just supporting whoever is 1957 01:47:23,520 --> 01:47:27,400 Speaker 1: here in the building. Obviously, it's been a slow start 1958 01:47:27,680 --> 01:47:32,000 Speaker 1: for this organization going oh and four, and for Brandon, 1959 01:47:32,040 --> 01:47:33,320 Speaker 1: the guy that was in the Super Bowl a couple 1960 01:47:33,320 --> 01:47:35,320 Speaker 1: of years ago when a lot of games the Patriots, 1961 01:47:35,400 --> 01:47:37,479 Speaker 1: the Ramsey went to the Super Bowl the Patriots. This 1962 01:47:37,560 --> 01:47:39,720 Speaker 1: has been kind of a tough adjustment. It's been tough 1963 01:47:39,800 --> 01:47:44,559 Speaker 1: for everybody, and Brandon reacted to the team being four. 1964 01:47:45,040 --> 01:47:46,439 Speaker 1: You know, at the end of the day, I think, 1965 01:47:46,600 --> 01:47:48,160 Speaker 1: you know what I'm feeling with a lot of us 1966 01:47:48,200 --> 01:47:50,720 Speaker 1: feeling that, and that's we should be having wins on 1967 01:47:50,800 --> 01:47:53,280 Speaker 1: our in our column right now. But at the end 1968 01:47:53,280 --> 01:47:55,000 Speaker 1: of the day, like I said, the biggest thing that 1969 01:47:55,120 --> 01:47:57,080 Speaker 1: we can continue to do is come here and work hard, 1970 01:47:57,160 --> 01:48:00,640 Speaker 1: work smart, and work detailed and not trying to you know, 1971 01:48:00,760 --> 01:48:02,479 Speaker 1: we know football. We've got a lot of talent on 1972 01:48:02,560 --> 01:48:03,960 Speaker 1: this team. Now, at the end of the day, we 1973 01:48:04,040 --> 01:48:06,720 Speaker 1: just gotta be there for one another, stick together in 1974 01:48:06,840 --> 01:48:09,360 Speaker 1: tune out the outside noise. You hear players say that 1975 01:48:09,400 --> 01:48:11,720 Speaker 1: a lot. You hear a lot of analysts say that 1976 01:48:11,800 --> 01:48:13,400 Speaker 1: our team's got to do this, and the team's got 1977 01:48:13,479 --> 01:48:14,519 Speaker 1: to do that. One of the things they say is 1978 01:48:14,600 --> 01:48:16,280 Speaker 1: you gotta tune out the noise. You have to tune 1979 01:48:16,280 --> 01:48:19,040 Speaker 1: out the noise. Do you know how incredibly hard it 1980 01:48:19,280 --> 01:48:23,120 Speaker 1: is to tune out the noise, especially when the noise 1981 01:48:23,280 --> 01:48:26,479 Speaker 1: is so negative at all times, especially when you're going 1982 01:48:26,479 --> 01:48:30,519 Speaker 1: on four. It is that negative that is so incredibly hard. 1983 01:48:30,920 --> 01:48:36,320 Speaker 1: It takes unbelievable focus, Unlike a lot of people have 1984 01:48:36,760 --> 01:48:39,920 Speaker 1: to tune out that noise, and hopefully this team can 1985 01:48:40,000 --> 01:48:41,800 Speaker 1: do it, get on the field and play like it 1986 01:48:41,960 --> 01:48:45,000 Speaker 1: can on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. All right, we 1987 01:48:45,080 --> 01:48:47,360 Speaker 1: reached that point of the show where it's time for 1988 01:48:47,680 --> 01:48:51,559 Speaker 1: Drew's final word, and this week, like I said earlier, 1989 01:48:51,680 --> 01:48:55,519 Speaker 1: it's for our guy, Dylan Cole. Drew, all right, We've 1990 01:48:55,600 --> 01:48:59,280 Speaker 1: got linebacker and team captain Dylan Cole with us. Dylan, 1991 01:48:59,320 --> 01:49:01,439 Speaker 1: it's always great to talk with you. I love the mask, 1992 01:49:01,560 --> 01:49:04,160 Speaker 1: I love the hood. It's only the eyes and you've 1993 01:49:04,240 --> 01:49:07,880 Speaker 1: got that killer look there. Tell me, how are things 1994 01:49:08,000 --> 01:49:10,200 Speaker 1: different this week? There's obviously got to be a different 1995 01:49:10,280 --> 01:49:12,639 Speaker 1: mood in the locker room with what has gone down 1996 01:49:12,760 --> 01:49:15,280 Speaker 1: change wise, right, Once again, we're all professional, so we 1997 01:49:15,400 --> 01:49:17,400 Speaker 1: understand that this is a business and trying to get 1998 01:49:17,800 --> 01:49:20,559 Speaker 1: get ready for Jacksonville and make sure that we can 1999 01:49:20,960 --> 01:49:24,240 Speaker 1: get one win this week. That is the goal. This 2000 01:49:24,439 --> 01:49:27,720 Speaker 1: is our this is our new philosophy. Just win each 2001 01:49:27,760 --> 01:49:30,519 Speaker 1: week when each day sure going want to know each 2002 01:49:30,560 --> 01:49:33,960 Speaker 1: week that's a very important goal, very viable goal. And 2003 01:49:34,160 --> 01:49:36,679 Speaker 1: tell me about Romeo Cornell. You've been with him a while, 2004 01:49:36,800 --> 01:49:40,639 Speaker 1: You've seen him in various capacities as defensive coordinator, as 2005 01:49:40,920 --> 01:49:43,799 Speaker 1: associate head coach. How are things a little bit different 2006 01:49:43,800 --> 01:49:46,840 Speaker 1: with Romeo if at all now that he is head coach? 2007 01:49:47,240 --> 01:49:50,559 Speaker 1: Rack he's like the Godfather. He's always got different things 2008 01:49:50,600 --> 01:49:53,559 Speaker 1: to say, you know, different sayings and different ways to cope. 2009 01:49:53,560 --> 01:49:55,960 Speaker 1: And it's always nice to hear from him because he 2010 01:49:56,080 --> 01:49:58,400 Speaker 1: just knows how to make everyone feel a lot better 2011 01:49:58,439 --> 01:50:01,120 Speaker 1: about any situation. And I think he's a he's a 2012 01:50:01,160 --> 01:50:04,040 Speaker 1: great guy. To just to have step up into the 2013 01:50:04,120 --> 01:50:06,320 Speaker 1: head coach position, and like I said, he just knows 2014 01:50:06,360 --> 01:50:08,800 Speaker 1: what to say, when to say it, and how to 2015 01:50:08,840 --> 01:50:12,240 Speaker 1: say it and shifting that to practice it just it felt, 2016 01:50:12,520 --> 01:50:14,200 Speaker 1: you know, like we didn't skip a beat and we 2017 01:50:14,320 --> 01:50:16,760 Speaker 1: just we're is this out there? Ready to roll with 2018 01:50:16,920 --> 01:50:19,360 Speaker 1: Jacksonville go? And want to know as a team that's 2019 01:50:19,439 --> 01:50:22,160 Speaker 1: the goal collectively, but as a defense, what do you 2020 01:50:22,200 --> 01:50:25,320 Speaker 1: guys need to change, shake up and improve this weekend 2021 01:50:25,400 --> 01:50:27,920 Speaker 1: in the weeks to come? You think, Yeah, I think 2022 01:50:28,000 --> 01:50:29,680 Speaker 1: the big thing for us is that we just got 2023 01:50:29,800 --> 01:50:31,680 Speaker 1: to play a little looser. I think sometimes we are 2024 01:50:31,680 --> 01:50:34,559 Speaker 1: a little tight, and sometimes we're too worried about being 2025 01:50:34,640 --> 01:50:37,479 Speaker 1: in the right gap and being And when I say that, 2026 01:50:37,640 --> 01:50:39,519 Speaker 1: I say that we know what gap we need to 2027 01:50:39,560 --> 01:50:41,280 Speaker 1: be in and and things like that, but we got 2028 01:50:41,400 --> 01:50:43,559 Speaker 1: to get back to the fundamentals and being who we are. 2029 01:50:43,760 --> 01:50:45,760 Speaker 1: Some guys, I feel like some guys are playing tight 2030 01:50:45,840 --> 01:50:47,880 Speaker 1: and like going back to your question, one thing that 2031 01:50:47,960 --> 01:50:50,160 Speaker 1: we need to stop is to run. And that all 2032 01:50:50,280 --> 01:50:52,960 Speaker 1: starts with the front seven. And you know, sometimes the 2033 01:50:53,040 --> 01:50:55,000 Speaker 1: corners when they when they got to get their their 2034 01:50:55,080 --> 01:50:57,320 Speaker 1: mask in there. But when we start we stop to run. 2035 01:50:57,760 --> 01:51:01,479 Speaker 1: Everything else works in for itself. Russian coverage can start 2036 01:51:01,560 --> 01:51:04,479 Speaker 1: working together, but it all starts up front. Yeah, and 2037 01:51:04,560 --> 01:51:07,280 Speaker 1: stopping the run against Jacksonville this Sunday. You do so 2038 01:51:07,600 --> 01:51:10,360 Speaker 1: with a back and James Robinson, who maybe not a 2039 01:51:10,439 --> 01:51:13,000 Speaker 1: lot of people know too much about, but he's averaging 2040 01:51:13,080 --> 01:51:15,240 Speaker 1: darning your five yards to carry, So it'll be a 2041 01:51:15,280 --> 01:51:17,320 Speaker 1: good challenge. What have you seen from the run game 2042 01:51:17,360 --> 01:51:21,360 Speaker 1: of Jacksonville in your short time looking at it? Yeah? So, yeah, 2043 01:51:21,360 --> 01:51:23,560 Speaker 1: the rookie back Robinson, I think I think he's a 2044 01:51:23,600 --> 01:51:27,280 Speaker 1: good player. Also, he's from Illinois State. NBC played Illinois 2045 01:51:27,280 --> 01:51:29,160 Speaker 1: State and College. I know a lot of people try 2046 01:51:29,200 --> 01:51:31,320 Speaker 1: to give me crap about going to a smaller college, 2047 01:51:31,360 --> 01:51:35,080 Speaker 1: but uh doesn't matter. Those players as you're you're clear evidence. Yeah, 2048 01:51:35,439 --> 01:51:37,960 Speaker 1: a small college guys are starting to start to make 2049 01:51:38,000 --> 01:51:39,800 Speaker 1: a name for ourselves. But yeah, he's a he's a 2050 01:51:39,840 --> 01:51:43,400 Speaker 1: good back. He's he's got great vision, He definitely he's 2051 01:51:43,439 --> 01:51:45,240 Speaker 1: got he's got some size on him where he can 2052 01:51:45,320 --> 01:51:47,600 Speaker 1: run through some tackles, and he's got some quickness. So 2053 01:51:47,640 --> 01:51:49,599 Speaker 1: he's a he's a good all around back, can catch 2054 01:51:49,680 --> 01:51:51,519 Speaker 1: them all out of the backfield. So one of those 2055 01:51:51,520 --> 01:51:53,720 Speaker 1: guys that we're gonna key on this week, but um, 2056 01:51:53,800 --> 01:51:57,599 Speaker 1: I think it goes back to just fundamentals working on ourselves. Yes, 2057 01:51:57,640 --> 01:52:00,479 Speaker 1: we're worried about Jacksonville back right now, some things that 2058 01:52:00,520 --> 01:52:03,519 Speaker 1: we got to clean up with within our defense and 2059 01:52:03,600 --> 01:52:07,280 Speaker 1: just understand within ourselves what we have to do going forward. 2060 01:52:07,360 --> 01:52:09,360 Speaker 1: And I think it just starts with us. Yes, we 2061 01:52:09,439 --> 01:52:11,280 Speaker 1: have to understand who they are and what they do, 2062 01:52:11,479 --> 01:52:14,479 Speaker 1: but we got we gotta make sure that we're keating 2063 01:52:14,520 --> 01:52:16,880 Speaker 1: on our fundamentals and what we do as a leader. 2064 01:52:16,920 --> 01:52:19,600 Speaker 1: As a team captain, you lead by example. But have 2065 01:52:19,680 --> 01:52:21,800 Speaker 1: you found yourself talking a little bit more this week 2066 01:52:22,040 --> 01:52:25,320 Speaker 1: given what's gone down? Yeah, I think it's more more 2067 01:52:25,360 --> 01:52:28,320 Speaker 1: or less important just to be encouraging positive vibes in 2068 01:52:28,400 --> 01:52:30,439 Speaker 1: the and the because you know there there haven't been 2069 01:52:30,439 --> 01:52:32,840 Speaker 1: a lot of negative vibes the past couple of days, 2070 01:52:32,880 --> 01:52:35,559 Speaker 1: just what every everything is going on. So I think 2071 01:52:35,600 --> 01:52:38,800 Speaker 1: it's important to keep a positive energy and uh, you know, 2072 01:52:39,320 --> 01:52:42,600 Speaker 1: positive energy is always contagious. And it started catching on 2073 01:52:42,760 --> 01:52:44,680 Speaker 1: and I felt that practice that there was a lot 2074 01:52:44,720 --> 01:52:46,800 Speaker 1: of good, good energy at practice. Yeah, and I gotta 2075 01:52:46,800 --> 01:52:49,080 Speaker 1: imagine that positive energy that you're talking about is going 2076 01:52:49,160 --> 01:52:51,760 Speaker 1: to carry over to the fans on Sunday. What's it 2077 01:52:51,960 --> 01:52:53,960 Speaker 1: like having them back in the building. And I know 2078 01:52:54,040 --> 01:52:55,479 Speaker 1: you want all of them back, but that's just not 2079 01:52:55,960 --> 01:52:57,320 Speaker 1: going to be the key the case for a while. 2080 01:52:57,400 --> 01:53:00,080 Speaker 1: But still it's got to be nice to hear some 2081 01:53:00,200 --> 01:53:01,760 Speaker 1: of them or see some of them like you did 2082 01:53:01,880 --> 01:53:03,760 Speaker 1: last Sunday, and you're probably gonna see a few more 2083 01:53:04,640 --> 01:53:07,880 Speaker 1: the mis Sunday. Yeah, fans are important when it comes 2084 01:53:07,880 --> 01:53:11,240 Speaker 1: to the game. We learned that early into the season 2085 01:53:11,360 --> 01:53:13,599 Speaker 1: when we came in and it was an empty stadium 2086 01:53:13,640 --> 01:53:16,120 Speaker 1: and we're well, one thing that's good without him is 2087 01:53:16,160 --> 01:53:18,960 Speaker 1: that you can hear the call and understand what everybody 2088 01:53:19,000 --> 01:53:21,439 Speaker 1: has to say. But it's great to have them, and 2089 01:53:21,600 --> 01:53:24,479 Speaker 1: especially on the defensive side when they get loud for 2090 01:53:24,640 --> 01:53:27,360 Speaker 1: us on third down, and just to have that once again, 2091 01:53:27,400 --> 01:53:29,640 Speaker 1: the energy, the positive energy when we make plays. We 2092 01:53:29,720 --> 01:53:32,479 Speaker 1: can hear about it other than listening from the same 2093 01:53:32,560 --> 01:53:35,000 Speaker 1: people that we hear over and over again. But when 2094 01:53:35,040 --> 01:53:36,800 Speaker 1: you pack that stadium, it gets a little louder, the 2095 01:53:37,120 --> 01:53:39,960 Speaker 1: energy gets a little bit more more amped, and that 2096 01:53:40,360 --> 01:53:44,759 Speaker 1: definitely carries through us. Last thing we heard from Justin 2097 01:53:44,840 --> 01:53:47,760 Speaker 1: Reid recently, and he talked about how because of these 2098 01:53:47,880 --> 01:53:51,040 Speaker 1: changes in stadiums and less fans. You can hear a lot, 2099 01:53:51,120 --> 01:53:53,720 Speaker 1: and you do hear a lot more of smack talk 2100 01:53:53,800 --> 01:53:56,200 Speaker 1: going on. Is that something you agree with? And how 2101 01:53:56,280 --> 01:53:59,720 Speaker 1: much of a talker are you? Yeah, I'm one of 2102 01:53:59,760 --> 01:54:01,720 Speaker 1: the I think it would be funny for me to 2103 01:54:01,760 --> 01:54:03,880 Speaker 1: be miked up at some point. I'm one of those. 2104 01:54:04,200 --> 01:54:06,960 Speaker 1: I don't know how I smack talk, but it's it's pretty, 2105 01:54:07,960 --> 01:54:11,320 Speaker 1: it's pretty quirky. I guess I'm more of like the jokester, 2106 01:54:12,080 --> 01:54:15,200 Speaker 1: your shoes on tie type guy. Watch out you just 2107 01:54:15,560 --> 01:54:18,000 Speaker 1: you're about the trip, look at or you know, look up, 2108 01:54:18,439 --> 01:54:21,200 Speaker 1: act like the boss coming and stuff like that.
