1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:01,000
Speaker 1: What's happened? Everybody.

2
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 2: Welcome to Monday edition of Texans. All Acts says, Happy

3
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:07,440
Speaker 2: New Year's to all of you. Glad you're with me,

4
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 2: John Harris Football on a Southern reporter for your Houston Texans,

5
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 2: and we are well with college football games going on

6
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,120
Speaker 2: and everything happening in the building, and figured, you know what,

7
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:21,159
Speaker 2: let's just play for you what Mark and I and

8
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,320
Speaker 2: our guests did this morning. How about that on Texans Monday.

9
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 2: So let's kick it off with well, the start of

10
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 2: the show with me Mark and we were joined by

11
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 2: Indie Kolou.

12
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 1: And the horseshoe is next, Ladies and gentlemen.

13
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,560
Speaker 2: I've been saying it, we've been saying that we probably

14
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 2: all the way back to we two.

15
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 3: Mark, Yes, we look. I thought it would all come

16
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 3: down to this. It's week eighteen. It's all come down

17
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:47,240
Speaker 3: to this.

18
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 2: This is it.

19
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 3: This is the Colts and the Texans for the playoffs one.

20
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: Year ago, very different situation. We can get into all that.

21
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 3: It's Texans Monday, presented by a Houston Methodist, and we've

22
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 3: got a lot to talk about. The Texans dismantling the

23
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 3: Tennessee Titans season sweep. Very nice and the Colts in

24
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 3: the crosshairs. Colts beating the Raiders twenty three to twenty

25
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 3: Raiders with ten fourth quarter points. We can get into

26
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 3: that game the nuances of it. How dangerous the Colts are,

27
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 3: we will. But never mind how.

28
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 2: The Colts are, Johnny. This is the freaking Colts.

29
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:26,119
Speaker 3: This is it, the white Whale, the nemesis, the all

30
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 3: time villain, and you have to go through them to

31
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 3: get to the playoffs. And it feels like the playoffs already,

32
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 3: doesn't it with the seventeen game schedule. We haven't had

33
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 3: a playoff birth in a seventeen game schedule yet, so

34
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 3: this is the first opportunity to get one because the

35
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 3: previous year is no sir. So here you are with

36
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 3: a chance to go. But it feels like a playoff

37
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 3: week right now because I'm playing on a Saturday. It's

38
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 3: already game week Tuesday, Johnny. And you know where I'm

39
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 3: going with this. Because Saturday is Sunday. That means we

40
00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 3: fly out Friday, which would be a Saturday. And oh yeah,

41
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 3: don't get me started on Wednesday, which will really be

42
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 3: a Thursday, so it'll be strange.

43
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, but Wednesday is actually Tuesday for the players because

44
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 2: everything got moved up, So Wednesday turns into Tuesday. For

45
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:11,920
Speaker 2: the players, that'll be their Wednesday day.

46
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: No, it does. It is Thursday.

47
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 2: No no really not Normally the Wednesday that they would

48
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 2: have during a game week has been moved up to Tuesday.

49
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 3: No, but I think this Wednesday is more like a

50
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 3: Thursday because today is Monday.

51
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:30,399
Speaker 1: See how everybody gets used with this. Here's how easy

52
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: this is.

53
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 2: The playoffs begin Saturday night at seven point fifteen in Indianapolis, Indiana,

54
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:43,919
Speaker 2: at Lucas Soil Stadium. Because it is when continue season losing,

55
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:45,519
Speaker 2: the season is over and you're.

56
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: Checking out Sunday. Simple, That's really what it is. It's

57
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 1: you mentioned it. It feels like a playoff week.

58
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 2: I woke up kind of feeling in some sense like,

59
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 2: oh right, we made the playoffs. I'm like, no, I

60
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 2: have to remind myself. No, no, no, But that's essentially what

61
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,959
Speaker 2: it is. And my interview with Beeka Ryan's at some

62
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 2: point I asked him after I congratulated him for his

63
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,359
Speaker 2: defense getting a touchdown, which he said was causing him

64
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 2: some adds at nighttime because they hadn't got one into

65
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 2: a week seventeen, he would like he would have liked

66
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 2: one earlier. Now, des King had one against Denver but

67
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 2: they got as a blown call.

68
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 1: So there was that. Does that happen in this league ever?

69
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, just a few times. But I said, all right, coach,

70
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 2: regular season's over here under the playoffs, and he kind

71
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 2: of laughed and chuckled, and he said, yeah, that's really

72
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 2: what it is, because it's now it's not the playoffs.

73
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 2: You win, you keep your season going because what happens

74
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 2: just put in our world for a second.

75
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 1: And I think about this a lot.

76
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 2: When when the season is over, that Monday after the season,

77
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 2: we do Texas Monday, we do the whole day, we

78
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 2: do Texas All Access.

79
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 1: We have a last Coach show. That's it.

80
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 2: None of the other shows that we normally do during

81
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 2: the week. So matchup on Tuesday, Players show on Tuesday,

82
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 2: any of that that all stops stops. So we're at

83
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 2: a point now where when we get into playoffs, I

84
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 2: always kind of when I always match up, like, I

85
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 2: hope we talk to you guys next week. We don't know,

86
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 2: because we lose, it's over. Yeah, you just you just

87
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 2: don't know when it when it comes to a screeching halt,

88
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 2: preaching halt, and so you'd like to be able to

89
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 2: make the playoffs. I'll tell you this about Indianapolis. I

90
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 2: know people you talk about it being the we probably

91
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 2: have more.

92
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 1: Not vitriol, but.

93
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,359
Speaker 2: Just more PTSD from it than these players when we

94
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 2: played Tennessee. When we played Tennessee the first time and

95
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 2: beat them, the locker room was raucous. But I could

96
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 2: hear in the locker room at some point I could

97
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 2: hear them like, yeah, yeah, we'll see you in two weeks.

98
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 2: Yeah that's good. Like these guys have a little bit

99
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 2: of that in them, like okay, and I don't know

100
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 2: if there was some trash talking or whatever was going

101
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 2: on and Tonday, we'll see in two weeks. It was

102
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 2: more like, yeah, yeah, we'll see you in two weeks.

103
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 2: You got to tangle with us now. And I kind

104
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 2: of hope that's the thought process, not that you go

105
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 2: into Indianapolis all you know, we're winning this game and

106
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,160
Speaker 2: nobody else. No, you have to respect an opponent and

107
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 2: you have to, you know, play as if you know

108
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 2: obviously it's a playoff game and that team beat you

109
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 2: by eleven points here. But I feel like this team

110
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 2: has a different edge to it.

111
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, which which I which I like. They don't.

112
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 2: They don't back down, and I don't think in this

113
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 2: situation they're gonna go to Indianapolis. Now, they might be

114
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 2: banged up because of some of the injuries you saw yesterday,

115
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 2: and we'll see how that how that plays out, but

116
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 2: they certainly sure as hell are not backing down from

117
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 2: anybody anywhere anytime. And I and I love that, and

118
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 2: it starts with it starts with Demiko, and it filters

119
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,280
Speaker 2: all the way through this team, and defensively yesterday, they

120
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 2: didn't back down from anybody. If I'd have told you

121
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 2: before the game, maybe you believe it because you did

122
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,160
Speaker 2: it the first time. But Derek Henry is gonna run

123
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 2: forty two yards. That's not a great there, Henry output right.

124
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 3: It's horrible. If he did that in game one, we'd

125
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:01,840
Speaker 3: be hanging in the banner.

126
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 2: We had more sack yardage than he had rushing yards.

127
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 2: We had fifty yards in sack yardage. Henry had forty two.

128
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 2: We held him to fifty one yards rushing in two games,

129
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 2: after giving up two hundred plus each four times previously.

130
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 2: He got a fourth of that in two games. And

131
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 2: I said it at the end. I'm a i'm a bit,

132
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 2: I'm a I'm just gonna say it, he shout just

133
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 2: outside Jacksonville and followed his career for a long time.

134
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,039
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of Derrick Henry.

135
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,160
Speaker 2: What he does, he does it quietly, he does it

136
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 2: with humility. I love what he stands for his football player.

137
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 2: But he can get the hell.

138
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: Out of Nashville. Yeah, he can get the hell out

139
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 1: of Nashville.

140
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,280
Speaker 2: Go go to the NFC man, and he don't want

141
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 2: to see you any They can't run that back because

142
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 2: it's over for them. From that standpoint, Tannehill gone, Henry gone.

143
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 2: They're done to me. The Henry form is over. He's

144
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 2: a different kind of player.

145
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:04,479
Speaker 3: Now he's got to go to a team where he

146
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 3: can be in a mix of things.

147
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 1: And that team is not Indianapolis. He's not going to

148
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 1: re up there.

149
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 3: Made a lot of money, congratulations, got the second contract.

150
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 3: He had a lot of success. And now he's gone

151
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 3: and we talk about I gotta look at all that.

152
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 3: I think so I know the body of that.

153
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 2: Is the thing.

154
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 3: He was the most feared back in this league for

155
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 3: a stretch. Is it enough of a stretch? Let the

156
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 3: Hall of Fame voters debate that, but to us, he's

157
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 3: an all time Texans villain and he's the one player

158
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 3: that is a non quarterback who is somebody just terrified me.

159
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 2: When he was on the field. It's a different thing.

160
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 3: You were thinking, oh man, here's t y, but you

161
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 3: know he could have four catches and ruin your day.

162
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 2: With Henry, it's a steady pounding.

163
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 3: Of abuse that he levies against you, and it's happened

164
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 3: so many times. So to have this success against him

165
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 3: in back to back games two weeks apart, three weeks apart,

166
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 3: that is phenomenal stuff. And forty two yards, yeah, I

167
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 3: would have taken it every single time because I said

168
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 3: before the game, I said last week, seventy to one

169
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 3: hundred is fine. We'll deal with that. Just don't let

170
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 3: the quarterback do some crazy things. Get the quarterback on

171
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 3: the ground. They did that. Will Levis got sacked once,

172
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 3: but it was a big one and he left the game.

173
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 2: One thing stood out to me more than anything else,

174
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 2: and Seth noted it in his two hours this morning

175
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 2: with Sean as I was driving in driving in like

176
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 2: six fifteen ish, but I was on the Odyssey app

177
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 2: because I was behind a little bit, so I wanted

178
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 2: to hear him. From the beginning of the show, you

179
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:41,680
Speaker 2: could tell he was done, Henry, he was done. He

180
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 2: didn't want any part of ramming his head into that

181
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 2: defense any longer.

182
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 4: Well, they were.

183
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,559
Speaker 1: Done, he was. And I've never.

184
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 2: Seen him defeated like that. Even in the game up there,

185
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 2: it was even wasn't getting anything. But you didn't see that.

186
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 2: They took his soul yesterday. I mean it was gone.

187
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 2: They snatched it. And just I mean that offensive line

188
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 2: for the Titans was is a mess, is a mess,

189
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 2: will be a mess.

190
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: Andre Dillard was pulled at halftime.

191
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 3: So Dillard, du guy everybody thought the Texans should draft

192
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 3: in twenty nineteen ahead of Cricus Howard, the guy everybody

193
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 3: thought they should take ends up in Tennessee. And Will

194
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 3: Anderson abuses him. Yeah, and to pull him.

195
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 2: I mean the first it was the first second, the

196
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 2: second sack, and there was the first sack. Will went

197
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 2: through Spears and Dillard went through both of them to

198
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 2: get the sack.

199
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:41,319
Speaker 1: And he played limited snacks.

200
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, he didn't play a full He didn't play a

201
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:46,079
Speaker 2: full compliment of plays, which this is didn't need to I.

202
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 3: Know it's not apples to apples. Actually, I'd love it

203
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 3: to be apples to apples. But when you think about

204
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 3: what Watt did late in the rookie year, and I

205
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 3: heard Seth talking about it this morning, and Wat talked

206
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 3: about quote figuring things out as it got late in

207
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 3: the season into the postseason, and I'm looking at Will thinking,

208
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 3: huh is he figuring things out? I'm listening to Seth

209
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 3: talk about how he's handling certain situations differently as a

210
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 3: pass rusher now than he was earlier in the season.

211
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 3: And look, he's a rookie's learning his way, And I

212
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:20,559
Speaker 3: thought this is a good thing. Preserve him, got to

213
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 3: get him going next week against Minshew and then who

214
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 3: knows after that. So let's just see this is beautiful.

215
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 3: The fact that you have Derek Barnett playing at a

216
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 3: nice level. Well here Derek Barnett yesterday, Wow, and Jerry

217
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 3: comes up with that big strip sack yep with Gernard out.

218
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 3: I don't know what Gernard's situation is. He tweeted yesterday

219
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 3: about how something great with the team I think was

220
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 3: Will Anderson.

221
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 2: So that was good.

222
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 3: I say that's good because is that a sign that

223
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 3: he's healthy. If you're not coming back at all, would

224
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 3: you tweet it all?

225
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 1: I don't know.

226
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 2: Maybe today kids they twisted. If anybody wants to play

227
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 2: in this game on Sunday or Saturday, it's John Gernard.

228
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:02,199
Speaker 2: Think about he knows what it means, think about his

229
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,559
Speaker 2: pat He will do everything to play in that game.

230
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 2: There is no bigger game than Texas have played since

231
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 2: he's been here. I mean twenty nineteen. Obviously we go

232
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 2: and have you know that moment in Kansas City and

233
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 2: win that playoff game. It's Buffalo all that. Grenard shows

234
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 2: up the next year, he shows up during COVID. He's

235
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 2: gone through how many head coaches, he's gone through, how

236
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 2: many defensive schemes he's.

237
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: Gone through all of this.

238
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 2: He's finally, you know, in his contract year and he's

239
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 2: put in together and stringing together one of the best

240
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,840
Speaker 2: years of edge Rusher's ever had here in Houston. Yeah. Absolutely,

241
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 2: literally dominant at times throughout this year. He is not

242
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,199
Speaker 2: gonna want to miss the most important game that we've

243
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 2: played in four years. He's not He's not gonna want

244
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 2: to miss it now Physically, that's that's the question, Like

245
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 2: how how is he gonna end up being physically but

246
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 2: you know the Titans. It's funny because the Titans only

247
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 2: saw Grenard and then they saw Will.

248
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:55,199
Speaker 1: They never saw both of.

249
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 2: Them at the same time. That's beautiful. If Derek Barnett

250
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 2: gave you yesterday, how about how about dvys day sack

251
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 2: and a half for QB hits unbelievable, unbelievable.

252
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 3: All right, let's get ind in here, and I want

253
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 3: to get his thoughts on Will Anderson and many other things.

254
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 3: Happy New Year, and d what'd you think of Let's

255
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 3: start with that the edge rusher Will Anderson limited snaps,

256
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 3: back to back sacks on one possession, real factor of

257
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,319
Speaker 3: the game, and they just got after it in general

258
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 3: on that D line.

259
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 5: Well, first of all, happy New Year, and you know,

260
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 5: thanks to Demico and companies that are making it happy

261
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 5: for all the Texan fans out there. To answer your

262
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 5: question about Will Anderson, what I saw is what I've

263
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 5: seen all year. You know, I have a little bit

264
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:40,440
Speaker 5: different take than those saying he's doing something different. For

265
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,319
Speaker 5: me when I've watched him all season. He's always had

266
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 5: that purse, he's always had that disruptive nature. The way

267
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,959
Speaker 5: he plays and sacks do come in bunches, So it's

268
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,239
Speaker 5: not like I see a different move that he's utilizing.

269
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 5: It's not like I see a different approach mentally with

270
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 5: the pass rush. It's just one of those deals when

271
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 5: you play hard and you go hard a bench like

272
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 5: good things are going to happen and production will happen.

273
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:03,440
Speaker 6: And in regards of the.

274
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 5: Sacks, I mean every play that he made yesterday I've

275
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,320
Speaker 5: seen him make or be close to making throughout the

276
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 5: entire year.

277
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,439
Speaker 6: Things just happened to go his way on the stat sheet.

278
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,440
Speaker 2: Well they did, and he didn't limited STAPs to Indy.

279
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 2: I think that's the that's the more impressive thing. He's

280
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 2: like six pressures on like twenty snaps or something like that,

281
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 2: which is unbelievable. And they taking away Derek Henry's runway

282
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 2: and then tackling him. Those are two Those are two

283
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 2: must when you play Henry. But obviously teams have struggled

284
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 2: to do that. But in the two meetings with Henry

285
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,319
Speaker 2: and the Titans, the Texans have been able to do that.

286
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 2: From a run defensive run defense standpoint, what really has

287
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 2: been working for the team? What have you seen up

288
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 2: front that really they were able to shut down Henry

289
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 2: and really been able to shut down a lot of

290
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 2: teams run games lately.

291
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,080
Speaker 5: You know what, it is an awesome mindset because so

292
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 5: many guys, especially in today's day and age, where you're

293
00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 5: just looking at sacks where you're if you're not double

294
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 5: digitus sacks, you're not a great defender, you're not a

295
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 5: great front four player. But these guys they take pride

296
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,719
Speaker 5: in playing against the run. And you can tell the

297
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 5: way they've approached Derrick Henry the last two games. They

298
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 5: really wanted to shut him down. You know, they're putting hats.

299
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 5: How many times have we seen multiple guys on the

300
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 5: tackle the pursued drill, I mean, all the basics that

301
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 5: they teach you as a young defensive player, you actually

302
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 5: see them doing it against the run. And I just

303
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 5: really like the mindset and how much pride they take

304
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 5: him playing against the run. And they don't have that

305
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 5: approach where it's just about the sack.

306
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 3: And D Kalu joining US Texans Monday and D what

307
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 3: about tackling Jonathan Taylor?

308
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 1: Both of you.

309
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 3: I got a question for both of you. You go

310
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 3: from the frying pan into the fire. You just dealt

311
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 3: with Henry very well. Now you have Jonathan Taylor, and

312
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 3: he played pretty well yesterday for the Colts and their

313
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 3: victory over the Raiders' thoughts, you know.

314
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 5: When you look at Jonathan Taylor, he's not better than

315
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 5: Derrick Henry. I still think he's in his prime and

316
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 5: as of right now, he is a more effective player.

317
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 5: I think he had close to one hundred yards or

318
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 5: right under one hundred yards against the Raiders yesterday.

319
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 6: I was looking at his stats.

320
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 5: You know, this is a guy that when he's healthy,

321
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 5: when he's hitting on all cylinders, he's one of the

322
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 5: top running backs in the NFL. But he just hasn't

323
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 5: been consistent. For them to win this game, though, they

324
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 5: do have to shut down Jonathan Taylor and Gardner Mitche

325
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 5: is gonna have to win him for the Colts.

326
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 6: So I'm sure this entire defense is looking forward to

327
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 6: that challenge. You know.

328
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 2: The one thing that the secondary and a lot of

329
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 2: times didn't have to do last few weeks was come

330
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 2: up and tackle Derrick Henry or Drone Ford because the

331
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 2: front six, really, I mean, the Texans have turned into

332
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 2: a nickel defense. I mean, if you want to look

333
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 2: at it that way, they're essentially playing a four two

334
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 2: five because desmon King's playing almost every play the secondary

335
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 2: really other than Des they made some tackles yesterday, but

336
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 2: they don't have to. What the secondary has to prevent

337
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 2: on Saturday is Jonathan Taylor going eighty five yards to

338
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 2: the house if the Colts block it up well and

339
00:15:58,960 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 2: open a scene.

340
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 1: Because JT can take a eighty five yards of the house.

341
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 2: We've seen him do that and do it often, and

342
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 2: so that's the thing that I think Taylor scares you

343
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 2: more than Henry. Henry's got that speed, but I think

344
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 2: the secondary, because he's got build up speed. I think

345
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 2: Jonathan Taylor's got go go speed from the beginning. So

346
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 2: that's the one thing I think you gotta avoid. Ind

347
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 2: and big games like this you han't played, I would

348
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 2: imagine in a few of them. What is it that

349
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 2: players have to avoid? I mean, getting over anxious, trying

350
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 2: to do too much. What are the things that players

351
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 2: have to avoid when they're playing in a big game

352
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 2: like this?

353
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:41,400
Speaker 5: I mean you meled over anxious, overthinking it, getting that

354
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 5: backside a little too tight. And you're right, I've been

355
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 5: lucky enough, blessed enough to play in some big games

356
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 5: in my career, and there were some games when we

357
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 5: played the Carolina Panthers when I was with Philadelphia and

358
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 5: the Panthers ended up going to the Super Bowl.

359
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:55,880
Speaker 6: We were supposed to beat them.

360
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 5: I mean, we had more talent, we had more success

361
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 5: throughout the year, but we wanted it so bad. We

362
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 5: were so I don't even know if locked in is

363
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:07,960
Speaker 5: the right term, because that's not really We were locked

364
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 5: in during the week, but we just didn't let it loose.

365
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 5: We didn't let it all hang out on game day

366
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,359
Speaker 5: and we played tight. We played not to lose, and

367
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 5: we ended up losing that game and they go off

368
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 5: to the Super Bowl. So for this team, they can't

369
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:22,919
Speaker 5: get too tight. They can't start thinking, oh man, if

370
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:24,679
Speaker 5: we lose this game against the coach, we don't make

371
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:25,200
Speaker 5: the playoffs.

372
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 6: We're so close.

373
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:27,879
Speaker 5: They just need to play with that same smile, that

374
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,880
Speaker 5: same loose energy that they played with throughout the year,

375
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 5: and they're playing with house money.

376
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 6: You know.

377
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 5: I was saying, if they could figure out a way

378
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 5: to win seven games this year, then Dimigo Ran should

379
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 5: be Coach of the Year. And they're going in the

380
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 5: right direction now they have a chance to actually get

381
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 5: into the playoffs and get double digit victory. I mean,

382
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 5: it's already been a successful year. So they just need

383
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 5: to go out there with a smile on their face,

384
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,400
Speaker 5: roll the ball out in Indianapolis and just play and

385
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 5: not get too tight and not overthink the situation at half.

386
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're not looking at it that way. They're here now.

387
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 3: They wanted CJ said it yesterday and bringing up the

388
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 3: quarterback endy, what did you think of what you saw

389
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 3: yesterday in his return game? That ground game was clicking

390
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,400
Speaker 3: well for him, and obviously they just had a lot

391
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 3: of good things going in all phases. But Stroud looked

392
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,159
Speaker 3: pretty sharp in his return.

393
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, they lied to us. He's not a rookie, he's

394
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 5: a season. My initial thought was, man, he's a rookie.

395
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 5: He's been out a couple of weeks. He's gonna be rusty,

396
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 5: and for him to look as toys and play the

397
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,400
Speaker 5: way he played. And I was even thinking this because

398
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 5: I want to see him get the Offensive Rookie of

399
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 5: the Year award. But I thought with Puka Nakua, the

400
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 5: wide receiver with the Rams, how consistent and awesome he's

401
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 5: been and he.

402
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 6: Hasn't missed any games that Oh, man. With CJ.

403
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,439
Speaker 5: Stroud being out two games, he's probably not gonna win it.

404
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:53,160
Speaker 5: But the way he returned yesterday, the way he led

405
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,960
Speaker 5: the team, the way he looked after missing two games,

406
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 5: he just looked like a season that and there isn't

407
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 5: anything you can say about c J. Stroud that others

408
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 5: haven't said, and he's just living up to it. My

409
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:09,120
Speaker 5: only hope is that he's able to replicate this year

410
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 5: in and year out for multiple years and not have

411
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 5: a Carson Wentz type of career where one year you're

412
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 5: talking about MVP, then two years later you're wondering what

413
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 5: happened to him. So that's the only hope, and only

414
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 5: time will tell. But he's awesome. I mean, this is

415
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 5: exactly what the Houston type of fan base wanted, expected

416
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 5: and deserved.

417
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 2: That's the Eagle in you talking.

418
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:33,439
Speaker 3: That's the PTSD of a Philly person, not that you

419
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 3: are one, but some of it rubbed off for some day.

420
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 1: That's what that d My gosh, you're watching.

421
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 2: Matt Patricia, coach of that Eagles defense down. What is

422
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:43,880
Speaker 2: going on here?

423
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 3: Meltdown in the city of brotherly love?

424
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 5: And that's and you know what, And I didn't want to,

425
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 5: you know, put any negative twists on it. But I

426
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:56,679
Speaker 5: still want to be realistic and temper my excitement because

427
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 5: I mean, right now, when I watch CJ. Stroud play,

428
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 5: I'm thinking to myself, Hey, three NFL and vps. He's

429
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 5: going to lead the Texas to at least two Super Bowls.

430
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:06,359
Speaker 5: But then I just have to kind of bring myself

431
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 5: back to reality. But man is just so fun to

432
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 5: watch and just so mature, like just the way he

433
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,439
Speaker 5: plays and what I like about him as opposed to

434
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:17,879
Speaker 5: a guy like Lamar Jackson, who I truly love the

435
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,360
Speaker 5: way he played with Lamar Jackson. If you're a fan

436
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,919
Speaker 5: of that team, you're thinking to yourself and with his

437
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 5: style of play, you just wonder how long ago it lasts.

438
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:26,000
Speaker 3: With c J.

439
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,359
Speaker 5: Stroud's style of play in which is the and the

440
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 5: way he approaches the game mentally, I mean he can

441
00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,480
Speaker 5: do this for the next ten to fifteen years.

442
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, Indy, I want to I want to hit

443
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:40,159
Speaker 2: on Brevin Jordan from from this standpoint on. I think

444
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 2: it was Friday maybe that Andrew Beck ended up getting hurt.

445
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 2: He ended up I think showing up on the injury

446
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,959
Speaker 2: report that day, and then he's he's inactive. So on Friday,

447
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,920
Speaker 2: essentially Brett finds out, Okay, there could be a possibility

448
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 2: that you're not so much the tight end as much

449
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,639
Speaker 2: as full back, eighth back sort of thing, So his

450
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 2: role changes. You're mentally prepared to have your role for

451
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 2: the game, and then all of a sudden it changes,

452
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 2: and now forty eight hours later you got to go

453
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,159
Speaker 2: out and you got to execute in that role. I

454
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 2: don't know if it's ever been like that for you,

455
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,199
Speaker 2: whether you plan to play on the outside, they say, hey,

456
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 2: wait a second, and we're gonna eat Jenny inside. We

457
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,119
Speaker 2: got injuries and you got to really kind of do

458
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 2: an about face with your preparation.

459
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 1: Have you ever been through something like that?

460
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 2: And with what Brev was able to do at fullback yesterday,

461
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,640
Speaker 2: does that speak sort of volumes to him, the fact

462
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,919
Speaker 2: that he was able to make that adjustment that quickly

463
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 2: and have a good ballgame like he did at full back.

464
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 5: No, you're you're absolutely right, and pros are going to adjust.

465
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 5: You know, you asked the question if I had to

466
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 5: adjust When I was with the Texas, we had injuries

467
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 5: inside and they just moved inside in the middle of

468
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 5: the Jets game, and I forget his last name, but

469
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 5: he's like an All Pro center for the Jets.

470
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,920
Speaker 6: I want to say it was nicked something, but Nick Megan,

471
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,120
Speaker 6: Nick Nick? How can I forget that?

472
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 5: So when the Texas moved be inside, he asked you,

473
00:21:58,400 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 5: because we knew each other, we had a pass.

474
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 6: He looked at me, smiled and said, what the heck

475
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 6: are you doing down here? Can I just say?

476
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:04,120
Speaker 2: Hey?

477
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:05,920
Speaker 6: Duty calls?

478
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 5: So when you bring up Brevin Jordan and the way

479
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,119
Speaker 5: he was able to adjust, that kind of tells you

480
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 5: what type of team the Houston Texans are right now,

481
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,880
Speaker 5: We've seen it with Damian Peers. Damian Pierce was your

482
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 5: leading rusher last year. He's not really getting the carries

483
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,119
Speaker 5: a production. They say, you know what, let's put you

484
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 5: back there a kickoff return and he takes one to

485
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 5: the house last week. So you just get the mindset

486
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,719
Speaker 5: next man. Every man has to step up. If somebody

487
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,159
Speaker 5: goes down, regardless of what position you typically played, you

488
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 5: might have to adjust. And Brevin Jordan was able to

489
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 5: do it, and I thought he did it admirablely.

490
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 3: Okay, ND, does Tennessee have a shot to knock off Jacksonville?

491
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,479
Speaker 3: Because that's the other game that matters, the one that

492
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:49,439
Speaker 3: matters most is Saturday Night win and you're in.

493
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 2: But I'm a little Gordon Gecko greedy, right.

494
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 1: Boy, here you go.

495
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I want to see this victory and I want

496
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 3: to see a Titan victory because we all know what

497
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 3: that means back here in less than two weeks.

498
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:06,400
Speaker 6: Thoughts you know what, do they have a chance? Yes,

499
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 6: it's the NFL.

500
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,240
Speaker 5: I mean if you would have and you already talked

501
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 5: about Philadelphia, I mean, if somebody would have said this,

502
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 5: Arizona have a chance against Philadelphia. If you say no,

503
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,360
Speaker 5: you'd be wrong. They end up winning that game. But Tennessee,

504
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 5: just man, I never thought i'd look at a Rabel

505
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 5: coach team and they look so uninspired. So I'll be very,

506
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 5: very shocked if they going there and beat Jacksonville. But

507
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,600
Speaker 5: there's one thing about playing that spoiler. There's one thing

508
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,120
Speaker 5: about that last game when you know you're not going

509
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 5: into the playoffs and you want to be that hater,

510
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,199
Speaker 5: you want to be that jerk. Some guys get up

511
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:42,200
Speaker 5: for that. Who knows, maybe Tennessee they that's their last

512
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 5: battlecraft this season.

513
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, And I think they have Ryan Tannel playing quarterback.

514
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 2: I think that could end up being the thing.

515
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,359
Speaker 3: I think that would be a big help, a big

516
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 3: help indeed. Indeed, all right, it's great to have you

517
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 3: on Happy New Year, and we'll talk to you tomorrow.

518
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,399
Speaker 3: Can't wait. It's a huge week. These are the kinds

519
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 3: of weeks we dream about. And so glad you're a

520
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 3: part of it.

521
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,120
Speaker 6: INDI, Yeah, I'm glad to be a part of it. Appreciated,

522
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:07,400
Speaker 6: and I will see y'all tomorrow.

523
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,919
Speaker 3: All right, Andy Kalu joining us on Texans Monday. And

524
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 3: we will have many more this year, many more, many more. Well, yeah,

525
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 3: it's twenty twenty four, so we're gonna have plenty. We're

526
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 3: gonna have plenty more. Nice one today.

527
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:24,440
Speaker 2: We're gonna have plenty more in twenty twenty four, for sure.

528
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:29,400
Speaker 3: All Right, we're gonna talk about the possibilities Saturday.

529
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:31,959
Speaker 2: I really, Johnny, I really want to look ahead.

530
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 3: But I'm literally fifty feet away from people who would

531
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 3: crush me.

532
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 1: They would break down his door. Yeah, for looking ahead.

533
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:42,480
Speaker 1: They would break down his door. What are you doing?

534
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:43,439
Speaker 1: What are you doing?

535
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 3: Because look, and I'll go back to them and I'll say,

536
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 3: no one knows more than me, how difficult.

537
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 2: This is what you got to do on Saturday.

538
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 3: I don't want to tell them about the history because

539
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 3: these young guys maybe they don't care.

540
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 2: And that's a good thing, right they.

541
00:24:58,359 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 7: Guys don't know.

542
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,160
Speaker 2: Some of these young guys only no winning from last

543
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 2: year up there.

544
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's right.

545
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 3: So and not losing period because they tied and they

546
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 3: won last year.

547
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:09,359
Speaker 1: And I'm here to tell.

548
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 3: You that that was typical in a sense of the

549
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 3: craziness of the series with the all time nemesis, who

550
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 3: you have played forty four times and only won ten

551
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 3: of them.

552
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 2: Think about that and how many up there. Let that

553
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:28,639
Speaker 2: sink in for a moment.

554
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 3: Well, it would be what twenty fifteen, it would be

555
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:35,360
Speaker 3: twenty one, eighteen, twenty one times played them up there?

556
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 3: Four So okay, I'll do the quick math. It's four

557
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:43,639
Speaker 3: and seventeen at Indy there is for you. But we

558
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:48,879
Speaker 3: got a one game winning streak up there. Hey you look,

559
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 3: you broke the streak in fifteen and sixteen, you went

560
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 3: back to back up there. You got another one in eighteen,

561
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 3: and you got last year's. But if you get this one,

562
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 3: this is Frodo throwing the ring into the fire. This

563
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 3: is completely wiping around. I know the series will take

564
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 3: years to even out, but this will be colossal to

565
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,120
Speaker 3: go in there. And I don't want to say never

566
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 3: mind your aspirations, but let me just focus on them

567
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 3: for a moment. If you make them miserable on Saturday night, Johnny,

568
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 3: I just it's gonna be so good to get that done.

569
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:27,119
Speaker 3: Please do it, please, I'm begging for a victory. This

570
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,200
Speaker 3: is good sports journalism, by the way, very objective.

571
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:31,680
Speaker 2: That's right, it's the General John McClain coming up next

572
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 2: the Texans All Access. Let's do let's dive right back

573
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 2: into a Monday edition of Texans All Access. We got

574
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 2: you for two hours tonight and no Monday night football,

575
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 2: so I John Harris, Football and sideline reporter will take

576
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 2: you through. We had a great show this morning, and

577
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:47,639
Speaker 2: we know a lot of you're watching college football, but

578
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 2: hopefully you're listening on things or listen to things that

579
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 2: you missed this morning.

580
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:52,720
Speaker 1: So let's do it.

581
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:56,239
Speaker 2: We started the second segment with a little discussion of

582
00:26:56,280 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 2: the Texans' first defensive touchdown of the season, and followed

583
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:02,400
Speaker 2: up with the General John McClain.

584
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:06,159
Speaker 3: Nice, okay, good job. Sheldon rankins with the scoop and

585
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 3: Jerry Hughes.

586
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 2: On rep a Htown days.

587
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 1: How about that Jerry Hughes reps.

588
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,639
Speaker 3: Htown with a strip sack that ends up in the

589
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,159
Speaker 3: end zone for the first defensive touchdown of the season.

590
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 3: I say first, Johnny, because you have another opportunity Sunday

591
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:23,160
Speaker 3: to get more and let's get up only let's get

592
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 3: to the general here, John McClain, John, Happy New Year,

593
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,920
Speaker 3: Texans Colts for the playoffs Saturday night And who would

594
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 3: have thunked this back in July? But here we are

595
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:35,200
Speaker 3: and it's oh so delightful.

596
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 8: I can't decide if you're on speed or your on

597
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 8: the day's frame. For five minutes, I'm trying to figure

598
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:44,959
Speaker 8: out which it is.

599
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: This is awesome.

600
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:52,240
Speaker 8: It is incredible that the Texans got the best primetime

601
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 8: game over the Ravens and Steelers. In again, it means

602
00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:00,080
Speaker 8: a lot of Steelers. And they're talking about sure they

603
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,800
Speaker 8: put the Steelers earlier because the Ravens may resk their players,

604
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 8: but putting it and they're not just being on ESPN,

605
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,240
Speaker 8: but being on ABC, so they're going to have the

606
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 8: whole country to themselves. And that's a game that traditionally

607
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:17,879
Speaker 8: draws the humongous audience. So Texan's got a chance to

608
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,479
Speaker 8: show the nation been able to show them during the season.

609
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,639
Speaker 8: The thing was so impressive to me yesterday. You know,

610
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:28,440
Speaker 8: Stroud was finding his return and that's what everybody wanted

611
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 8: to see. Didn't turn it over, and but what the

612
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 8: defense did without John Toon Grenard and Malik Willis, and I.

613
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 4: Hope a lot of these national people.

614
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 8: I hope Grenard can play, so these national people that

615
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 8: keep talking about how great he is, don't keep talking

616
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 8: about Greenard and they'll actually learn how to pronounce Greener's name.

617
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 8: But the way that they dominated the Titans again, the

618
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 8: running game, the way they beat on Will Levis and

619
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:03,800
Speaker 8: Ryan Tannehill, Will Anderson coming back with six two sacks,

620
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 8: six pressures, two tackles for loss, three quarterback kids, and

621
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 8: what a pickup Derek Barnett has been. If he could

622
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 8: play his hometown team, the Titans, every game, he'd be

623
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 8: going to Pro Bowl because he's head now. He had

624
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 8: five pressures yesterday, one and a half sacks, He knocked

625
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 8: down the quarterbacks four times, and in his two games

626
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 8: against them, he has two and a half sacks, four

627
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 8: tackles for loss, four knockouts and seven pressures, so the

628
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:39,480
Speaker 8: pressure they got up front was just tremendous without two

629
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 8: of their best players. And you know, they may precipitate

630
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 8: Derek Henry getting out of the f C South. He

631
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 8: may want to go to another division. And congratulations DeAndre Opkins.

632
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 8: Is a quiet game for him, but he got his

633
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 8: seventh to one thousand yard season, and we saw the

634
00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:58,080
Speaker 8: first five.

635
00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 2: Yes we did, and congrat the hop and congrats to

636
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 2: Dereck Henry.

637
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 1: You got over a thousand yards too.

638
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 2: But the Henry that I saw on the sideline at

639
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,000
Speaker 2: the end of that game, General wanted to be anywhere

640
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 2: but in the Titans uniform going forward. So we'll see

641
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 2: what ends up happening, because that was a boy. That

642
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 2: was a rough look for the Titans yesterday. General, you

643
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 2: talked a lot about the defense and talking about CJ

644
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 2: and what you saw from CJ yesterday and how the

645
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 2: offense looked normal, looked like it was with CJ, looked

646
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 2: better with CJ. Your thoughts about how the offense overall

647
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:31,160
Speaker 2: looked with CJ back in command.

648
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 8: Back to the Titans. First, they beat them up so bad.

649
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 8: I don't think the Titans got enough left to be

650
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 8: able to beat Jacksonville at all. And if the Texans

651
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 8: went on Saturday, then everything, all the attention will be

652
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 8: on the Titans and the Jaguars, and the Jaguars, boy,

653
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 8: the Panthers pathetic and it doesn't matter who they're going against.

654
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 8: But uh, that's I just the team. I saw thee

655
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:04,719
Speaker 8: yesterday that the Texans left. It just doesn't look like

656
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 8: that team is capable of beating anybody. But boy, wouldn't

657
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:11,840
Speaker 8: it be great if the Texans went on Saturday. And

658
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 8: I remember that overtime victory in twenty eighteen. It started

659
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 8: that winning streak there. So they won in eighteen, they

660
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 8: won last year, so it's not like they've been getting

661
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 8: man int like they did when Peyton was there. But

662
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 8: as far as I thought, Bobby Slowly did a great

663
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:35,240
Speaker 8: job of calling plays. They're playing two D coverage the

664
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 8: whole time, and he didn't have him throwing the ball

665
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 8: down the middle of the field, which is what they

666
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 8: were trying to do. He had him throwing some screens,

667
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 8: they had two receivers carry the ball, they were having reverses,

668
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:52,960
Speaker 8: baking reverses. I thought it was very, very creative for

669
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 8: slowing and he had to see. He said to us

670
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 8: last week that you can look great in practice, but

671
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 8: he's been around play years before when he missed a

672
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 8: couple of games. They stepped right in and pick up

673
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 8: where they left off in practice. And then some need

674
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 8: to work to not the rust off. And I thought

675
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 8: slowly did a great job of getting Stroud back into

676
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 8: the groove, back into the flow. Not a lot of

677
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 8: high risk passes thrown into a coverage that was expecting

678
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 8: a lot of explosive plays. They just kind of I

679
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 8: just thought it was a tremendous game. He completed seventy

680
00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:37,120
Speaker 8: five percent, that's thirteen percent over his season average, two

681
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 8: or thirteen yards. The touchdown to Brevin Jordan, who did

682
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 8: a tremendous job getting open. His rating one O two

683
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 8: point seven to me. Go said last week, he's looking

684
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 8: for efficiency from Stroud in the huddle, coming out of

685
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 8: the huddle, at the line of scrimmage. And he used

686
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:58,520
Speaker 8: the word efficiency three times postgame. And then they had

687
00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 8: just enough of a running game eleven yards four yard average,

688
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 8: Devin Singletary average five yards, and Carrie to keep the

689
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 8: Titans off balance.

690
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,880
Speaker 4: And then, of course, you know, I.

691
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:15,080
Speaker 8: Thought the special team's terrific again and uh with Kimi

692
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 8: Fairberry kicking four field goals, Cam Johnston punted great yet

693
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 8: king average and fifteen yards on two punt returns. It

694
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 8: was the epitome of complementary football, which I usually don't

695
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,720
Speaker 8: like to use that term because it's such a cliche.

696
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 8: But that's what the Texans got yesterday, including their first

697
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 8: defensive touchdown.

698
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 3: We really needed that, needed that here, good old fashioned

699
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 3: workmanlike lopsided victory.

700
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's stressful at the end, easy on the heart. Oh,

701
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 2: the Cults.

702
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 4: First time since October.

703
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 2: First, exactly.

704
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 1: It took three months, but we got another one.

705
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 3: So the Colts had some stress against the Raiders general,

706
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 3: but the Colts here, they are seven. I kind of

707
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 3: like it that you have three AFC South teams that

708
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 3: have clinched winning records. I think that's kind of cool

709
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 3: for the division that takes a lot of heat here

710
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,399
Speaker 3: and still talks, I mean, the national media the AFC South.

711
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 3: I know nobody's in double digit wins right now, but

712
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 3: there's some good football being played.

713
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:16,680
Speaker 2: So what about the Colts.

714
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:19,759
Speaker 3: I hate complimenting them, but they've really constructed a nice

715
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:25,279
Speaker 3: season for themselves. The Minshew Shane Steiken combination has done

716
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,200
Speaker 3: well for them, and Taylor's back. Now, what do you

717
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 3: think of the horseshoe?

718
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 8: Nobody runs on the Texans anymore. Nobody. Not only have

719
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:37,239
Speaker 8: they not given up one hundred yard rusher, they haven't

720
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:40,760
Speaker 8: given up a ninety yard rusher. And with Milake Collins

721
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,640
Speaker 8: and Johnson Gernard, both of them have been great against

722
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:44,040
Speaker 8: the run.

723
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 4: It didn't matter.

724
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,279
Speaker 8: They still shut down the Titans and Derrick Kennery. And

725
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,479
Speaker 8: there comes Jonathan Taylor, who has been a huge thrown

726
00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 8: in their sides. He had ninety six yards and a touchdown.

727
00:34:55,719 --> 00:35:00,120
Speaker 8: And Gardner Minshew he only completed fifteen passes, but he

728
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,040
Speaker 8: threw for two hundred and twenty four yards and a touchdown.

729
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 8: His rating was even better than Straube one to eleven

730
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 8: point five. And then Michael Pittman had five catches. So

731
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:15,279
Speaker 8: they've got balance. And I don't think they would ever

732
00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 8: been in this position if Anthony Richardson had been healthy

733
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 8: and learning all season. And Minshew yesterday, I think it

734
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 8: was a third and one. He faked it and went

735
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 8: deep for a long pass. It was a touchdown. I

736
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:29,880
Speaker 8: think I'm not sure it was a touchdown.

737
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:30,239
Speaker 6: Or not.

738
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:34,400
Speaker 8: Yeah, fifty eight yards to Piers, but they've got balanced.

739
00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 8: Their defense is playing well. Raiders had to play without

740
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:41,840
Speaker 8: Josh Jacobs and playing with the rookie quarterback Eatan O'Connell.

741
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:43,760
Speaker 4: They gave him everything they could.

742
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:49,759
Speaker 8: Colts I think still, I think they played nine they're either.

743
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:54,880
Speaker 8: I think they played nine all games and they have

744
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:56,759
Speaker 8: a losing record at all. I think they have a

745
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 8: losing record. Wrong they did going in Jacksonville did too,

746
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,840
Speaker 8: maybe they even did, but they have not been really

747
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 8: good at all. And boy, what a great way to

748
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,440
Speaker 8: end the season. It's almost like this is already the

749
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 8: playoffs with so much at stake, and if they win,

750
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 8: can you imagine it? I mean, it's unimaginable to me anyway.

751
00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 8: To be guaranteed a winning record, win six more games

752
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 8: than last season, but dead double digits. If it was

753
00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 8: ten and seven, it's already phenomenal. But to be in

754
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:34,919
Speaker 8: this position in Tamiko's first year, unfortunately, the Kevin Stefanski

755
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 8: is gonna win Coach of the Year, especially after winning

756
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 8: here so decisively. Man Mako, absolutely everybody in the country saying.

757
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,640
Speaker 4: Stefanski and Tamiko will finished second.

758
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:48,680
Speaker 2: Wait, hang on a second.

759
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 3: I understand Stefanski has done a good job there, and

760
00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:54,480
Speaker 3: yeah right, this is not about head to head.

761
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:55,840
Speaker 1: Look at their freaking roster.

762
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 2: Look, everybody poo pooed.

763
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 3: The Texas is supposed to be getting a top repick

764
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 3: in the draft, and he has them at the precipice

765
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:04,680
Speaker 3: of the postseason, and.

766
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 2: You're saying it's a lot for Stefanski.

767
00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:09,799
Speaker 3: I get the Stefanski sentiment, but I can't write off

768
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:12,600
Speaker 3: to Miko. Riots If he wins Saturday Night and gets

769
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:16,120
Speaker 3: ten wins and maybe even possibly wins the division.

770
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:19,040
Speaker 2: If Jackson loses and the Texans win and win a division,

771
00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:20,680
Speaker 2: how does he not coach of the year.

772
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 8: You guys be prepared, Kevin Stefanski and getting all that publicity.

773
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 8: The Texas have had no nationally televised games. You haven't

774
00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:33,800
Speaker 8: had all the broadcasters talking about Demiko. Voting of course

775
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 8: is based on regular season.

776
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:36,359
Speaker 4: It's done.

777
00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,799
Speaker 8: It'll be done next week, I think on Tuesday. And

778
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,279
Speaker 8: I'm telling you is Stfansky because all they might think

779
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:46,520
Speaker 8: about is four starting quarterbacks and losing their top three

780
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 8: offensive tackles who've.

781
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 4: Been on hour.

782
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 8: And yes, they got a really good roster, but just

783
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:53,440
Speaker 8: prepare yourselves.

784
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:58,000
Speaker 2: Okay, I'll ask you about two awards, and what are

785
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:02,799
Speaker 2: the chances offensive Rookie of the year year a defensive

786
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 2: Rookie of the Year Will Anderson. What if he puts

787
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:08,920
Speaker 2: on a show on Sunday night or everybody?

788
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:10,760
Speaker 1: Does he have a chance? General?

789
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 4: And well, of course he does.

790
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:17,759
Speaker 8: Jalen Carter was the runaway favorite early and now I

791
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:21,160
Speaker 8: have heard his name mentioned. And the Eagles defensive line

792
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:23,920
Speaker 8: has not played well. They just lost it home to

793
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:28,240
Speaker 8: the Cardinals. Who's the corner from Seattle? People talked about

794
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:29,239
Speaker 8: for a while.

795
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 1: Oh, Devin Witherspoon.

796
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 4: He's been backing Devin Witherspoon. He's been hurt. They're not

797
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:33,800
Speaker 4: doing well.

798
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:39,759
Speaker 8: If Will plays anywhere near what he did against the

799
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 8: Colts like he did the Titans, he's going to have

800
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:45,759
Speaker 8: that captive audience right before the votes are sent in,

801
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,359
Speaker 8: and I think he will have a great chance. One

802
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 8: of the things I hope they mentioned a lot of

803
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:55,239
Speaker 8: the pressures that he had, like Sike syesterday, he's at

804
00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:58,080
Speaker 8: you know, he said civil side that sets the team record.

805
00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 8: It's weird when you hear that Brooks Reid shared the

806
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:06,440
Speaker 8: team record instead of JJ Watt, Mario Williams now JJ

807
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 8: bounced back with twenty and a half his second season.

808
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 8: Mario ed I think like fourteen and a half. So

809
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:16,040
Speaker 8: Jay Waite, see what Will does next season. But I

810
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,279
Speaker 8: think Will Anderson, boy, he's in the right spot at

811
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:23,239
Speaker 8: the right time. It's a great chance for him. And

812
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:26,719
Speaker 8: of course broadcasters will be talking the whole time about

813
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 8: what a great job to Becau's done. But they're also

814
00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,440
Speaker 8: gonna be talking about what a great job that Shane

815
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:33,440
Speaker 8: Steichen's done.

816
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,080
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, he's got a good job. You cannot

817
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 1: take that away from him.

818
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:39,319
Speaker 3: And maybe the Winter Saturday Night deserves it, I don't know,

819
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 3: and Stefanski certainly deserves heavy consideration.

820
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:43,799
Speaker 2: It's tough, Okay, well you just watched.

821
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,799
Speaker 4: They're gonna give it just the fans ki, all.

822
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 3: Right, congratulations Cleveland. Somebody's gonna knock them off. Gosh, although

823
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,600
Speaker 3: part of me wants go to play so well, it

824
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:59,399
Speaker 3: could be us part of me, Yeah, it could it could.

825
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 2: Mark they're playing at Energy Stadium, not this coming weekend,

826
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:04,400
Speaker 2: but the following weekend.

827
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:06,759
Speaker 3: It will be the Browns, oh boy again, and you

828
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 3: get your shot at them. But the votes will be in.

829
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,320
Speaker 3: But it's more that it's about more than the votes.

830
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 1: I just put it that way. At that point, general, let.

831
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:15,960
Speaker 4: Me ask question.

832
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:21,080
Speaker 8: If Detexans get in as a wild card, so much

833
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,520
Speaker 8: is unsettled, who are they? What's the division champion? They'd

834
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,320
Speaker 8: be most likely to play Miami or Buffalo.

835
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,759
Speaker 2: They won't play Miami. Miami is not part of the mix.

836
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:32,960
Speaker 2: The only two places they can play are Buffalo in

837
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 2: Kansas City.

838
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:35,600
Speaker 1: Wait, why can't they play Miami? Can't play Miami? What

839
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:36,480
Speaker 1: if they win the division?

840
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:36,759
Speaker 4: I don't know.

841
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:38,360
Speaker 2: People have done the math on this, and I've just

842
00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 2: read the math, and they can't play. They will play

843
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:43,439
Speaker 2: It's Buffalo or casey.

844
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:48,840
Speaker 4: I Kansas City the way that Chiefs are playing.

845
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:51,840
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, well but you know what, the two of

846
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,759
Speaker 2: us have PTSD from that place down twenty four to nothing.

847
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,440
Speaker 1: I might rather go to Buffalo. I'm serious.

848
00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:00,120
Speaker 3: I might rather go to Buffalo and exercise the demons

849
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 3: up there well instead of the demons.

850
00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:03,760
Speaker 1: Cas in either place.

851
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:07,240
Speaker 2: We walk into those two places that were like, hi, demons,

852
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:08,280
Speaker 2: we've seen you before.

853
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 4: They win twenty they get up twenty four.

854
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:13,520
Speaker 8: Oh, they ain't blowing that laid And they also wanted

855
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:14,680
Speaker 8: arrow he had that season.

856
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:18,280
Speaker 4: Was that the last time that they have been.

857
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:21,400
Speaker 3: To open They opened this twenty twenty campaign at Arrowhead

858
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:24,160
Speaker 3: and the Super Bowl celebration for the Chiefs Kobe.

859
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,560
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh.

860
00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:29,200
Speaker 2: Yeah Thursday night or it was horrible, horrible, awful.

861
00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 3: We had technical it was awful, so bad awful. I thought,

862
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,839
Speaker 3: Will Levis one more for you here. I thought Will

863
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:38,000
Speaker 3: Levis had to start because if he was healthy, because

864
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,120
Speaker 3: they had to evaluate him. Well, he's hurt again. I

865
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:42,319
Speaker 3: don't know if he plays next week. Are they good

866
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:44,319
Speaker 3: with Will Levis going into next year? Are they gonna

867
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:45,160
Speaker 3: have to go shopping?

868
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 2: What do you think?

869
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:47,320
Speaker 4: No, they're good with Will Levis.

870
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 8: And I think the Times that have a better chance

871
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:53,839
Speaker 8: right now with Tanno playing that last game against Jacksonville,

872
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:57,160
Speaker 8: then they will with Levis. Levis makes too many mistakes

873
00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 8: where Danny Hills is kind of a smooth operation, and

874
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,799
Speaker 8: knowing it could be Derrick Henry's last game at home,

875
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:07,279
Speaker 8: he's gonna want to put on the show, even though

876
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:12,240
Speaker 8: their offensive line is horrific. But I think Texans fans

877
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 8: should want Ryan Tannehill to be the starter in that game.

878
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:20,319
Speaker 2: Yes, go Aggie Hill.

879
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:23,360
Speaker 8: He's auditioning for another job too, so he needs to

880
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,480
Speaker 8: go out and have a good performance so other teams

881
00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:30,839
Speaker 8: looking for a backup will have a good feeling about him.

882
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 3: Although I am so bitter and shallow that should a

883
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:37,719
Speaker 3: victory not occur for the Deep Steel Blue on Saturday Night,

884
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:39,840
Speaker 3: I'll be rooting for the Jags to win the division

885
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:42,680
Speaker 3: because I want to prevent the Horseshoe from any kind

886
00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:43,919
Speaker 3: of happiness in that way.

887
00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:46,799
Speaker 2: So that's just how I am. That's not petty, that's

888
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:48,799
Speaker 2: just that's competitiveness. That's that's good.

889
00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:51,439
Speaker 3: I cannot have them winning their first division titles. He's

890
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 3: twenty fourteen. It cannot happen, all right, John, thanks a

891
00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 3: lot for joining us. We'll catch up later in.

892
00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:56,360
Speaker 4: The way you guys.

893
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:58,799
Speaker 1: Happy New Year, Happy New Year.

894
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 3: Up next, let's analyze a few things about this matchup

895
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,040
Speaker 3: Texans called Saturday Night for the playoffs.

896
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 2: You bet we will discuss that next right here in

897
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:12,040
Speaker 2: Texans All Access. Weccing back to this Monday edition of

898
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 2: Texans All Access. I'm your host, John Harris, Football Analyst

899
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 2: Sideline report. A big discussion point for Mark and I

900
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:22,400
Speaker 2: with the impact of Will Anderson the terminator. We had

901
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:23,520
Speaker 2: discussion right here.

902
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 3: Oh that was nice because he had one on the

903
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:30,000
Speaker 3: next play too. Will now with seven sacks Texans rookie record.

904
00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:34,120
Speaker 3: Not the full complement of snaps yesterday either. Thank goodness

905
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:36,719
Speaker 3: for the Derek Barnett acquisition. We'll catch up with Nick

906
00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:40,400
Speaker 3: Cassario this week. This has been very well played with

907
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:44,000
Speaker 3: all the injuries acquisitions. Kareem played yesterday. That was nice

908
00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:45,440
Speaker 3: to see Kareem have.

909
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,080
Speaker 2: The safety mixedhead going with DHC and Kareem out there

910
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:51,680
Speaker 2: kind of rotating opposite. Jalen thought it was good. Thought

911
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:54,520
Speaker 2: secondary played well. They'd really get tested a whole heck

912
00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 2: of a lot. I mean, Tannaya was sixteen of twenty,

913
00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 2: but he got a lot of ang garbage.

914
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,120
Speaker 1: He made a throw after the second sack to Hopkins.

915
00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:06,920
Speaker 2: That's what we need from him on Sunday, and we

916
00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:08,160
Speaker 2: need against the Jags.

917
00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:10,360
Speaker 1: We need you, Ryan Tannehill, we.

918
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 3: Need we need the Texans to beat the Colts and

919
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:15,919
Speaker 3: just let the chips fall where they may.

920
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,960
Speaker 2: We can watch Sunday with less stress. I know it's

921
00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:19,560
Speaker 2: I think.

922
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:23,320
Speaker 3: It's called house money at this point because the expectations

923
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,160
Speaker 3: were not to get here, and I get that, but

924
00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:28,759
Speaker 3: I just think now that you're here.

925
00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:30,839
Speaker 2: It's not like no.

926
00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:32,719
Speaker 3: One's saying they're not gonna try because oh it's house

927
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:36,799
Speaker 3: money whatever. This is just for fans to process the

928
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:40,319
Speaker 3: occurrence here of having this win and in scenario in

929
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 3: week eighteen, now that you're here, you got to take

930
00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:46,560
Speaker 3: all you can possibly get. You don't know what happens

931
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:49,399
Speaker 3: next year, the year after that. We know that better

932
00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:53,359
Speaker 3: than anybody. Take it while you got it, sell out, win,

933
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:56,799
Speaker 3: do it, go on a run. See what happens. I

934
00:44:56,840 --> 00:45:00,000
Speaker 3: can't believe they're here. He has instantly turned them back

935
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 3: back into a winner. Now, it's not the first time

936
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:04,240
Speaker 3: that a first year head coach has done this, because

937
00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:07,040
Speaker 3: Bill O'Brien did it with the twenty thirteen team that

938
00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:09,400
Speaker 3: went two and fourteen and then they went nine and seven.

939
00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:12,759
Speaker 3: But I'm gonna say, butt, Johnny, we're looking at three

940
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:17,400
Speaker 3: consecutive years of not winning and really tearing down the entire.

941
00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:18,879
Speaker 1: Roster that twenty fourteen team.

942
00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:20,359
Speaker 3: And I don't want to take away from Bill's job

943
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,200
Speaker 3: doing that because he turned them back into a winner.

944
00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:24,919
Speaker 3: I always give him credit for that. And what three

945
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:27,239
Speaker 3: consecutive winning seasons? I know they were nine and seven,

946
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 3: but so what you got the job done. And had

947
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:33,520
Speaker 3: they had a seventeen per conference playoff a lot man

948
00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:35,399
Speaker 3: in twenty fourteen, you would have made it that year.

949
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,000
Speaker 3: So anyway, he turned them back into a winner. But

950
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:39,520
Speaker 3: that team in a lot of talent on it. Yeah,

951
00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:42,239
Speaker 3: mean twenty fourteen, you're handing off to Arian Foster, get

952
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 3: thrown to Andre Johnson and DeAndre Hopkins.

953
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:44,520
Speaker 2: You got that.

954
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:46,799
Speaker 3: Oh, you got Dwayne Brown and Chris Meyer is still

955
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:48,440
Speaker 3: on the team. You've got J. J.

956
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:49,680
Speaker 2: Watt. You've got a lot of.

957
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:53,280
Speaker 3: People on the team were really, really good and established

958
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:55,240
Speaker 3: NFL veteran players.

959
00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:58,080
Speaker 1: This team, I have a lot of young.

960
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 3: Guys, second year guys, some vets spring in and they've

961
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:03,680
Speaker 3: done a masterful job top to bottom of creating a

962
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 3: team that can win games. Now they've won nine, you

963
00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:09,160
Speaker 3: want to win the tenth. Get in and let's have

964
00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:10,960
Speaker 3: some fun on the postseason party.

965
00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:14,800
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously, bring up to Miko.

966
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:17,439
Speaker 2: It's almost to me like you you bring up to Mika,

967
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:19,319
Speaker 2: you bring up Nick, you bring up Nick, you bring

968
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:24,719
Speaker 2: up to Miko because the draft is incredible. Oh, by

969
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:26,920
Speaker 2: the way, do you hear anybody bitching about moving up

970
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:29,480
Speaker 2: and taking Will Anderson a number three pick anymore terrible?

971
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,239
Speaker 1: What's his name doing that? Everybody wanted him?

972
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:32,960
Speaker 2: Yeah?

973
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:36,880
Speaker 1: Exactly? Yeah. What's Luke Lucas Vanas doing with the Packers? Anyways?

974
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:41,560
Speaker 2: Wait, what's Tyree Wilson? Yeah? Boy, well how's he doing?

975
00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:45,520
Speaker 2: It's not been well, it's been okay. I saw a

976
00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:48,160
Speaker 2: highlight that popped up. Anytime that he does something, it

977
00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 2: pops up on Twitter because the Raiders fans are like,

978
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:53,640
Speaker 2: look look see see see he can be okay. Anyways,

979
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:55,960
Speaker 2: I do have two and a half sacks. Yeah, Tyree's

980
00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:58,320
Speaker 2: got Tyree's Tyree's got some game. But that's what begands

981
00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:00,840
Speaker 2: to him. I mean, seriously, nothing against special moved up.

982
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:02,960
Speaker 2: You're supposed to take a special guy. You did, and

983
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:06,080
Speaker 2: he's playing special. He's a special guy in so many

984
00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:06,720
Speaker 2: different ways.

985
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:07,279
Speaker 1: Mark I was.

986
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:08,480
Speaker 2: I went down to the end zon when they went

987
00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:10,960
Speaker 2: when we had the goal line stand, just something nobody's

988
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:13,760
Speaker 2: really talked about. So we're gonna talk about it, Landry

989
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:15,879
Speaker 2: and John you and queued up. I'll be nobody's talking

990
00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 2: about guy. The goal line stand. Seven stops of the Titans,

991
00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:26,319
Speaker 2: seven inside the seven yard line, seven freaking stop. So

992
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:28,080
Speaker 2: I go back to the end zone. After Hot makes

993
00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:30,440
Speaker 2: that catch, it gets him down inside the ten. So

994
00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:34,320
Speaker 2: I'm watching from the back of the end zone every play.

995
00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:36,399
Speaker 2: I want y'all, if y'all haven't done this, I want

996
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:39,200
Speaker 2: y'all to watch Will Anderson before the snap of a football.

997
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:42,520
Speaker 2: That dude's twitching like he's on pop rocks and cocaine,

998
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:45,560
Speaker 2: like he's he's twisting like he's tweet He's in his

999
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:49,120
Speaker 2: stands and he's just twitching like waiting for the.

1000
00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:51,319
Speaker 6: It is.

1001
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:54,840
Speaker 1: It's worst Winnaker fast times I'm watching. I'm seeing it

1002
00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:58,279
Speaker 1: at various times throughout the year. He's twitching.

1003
00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,240
Speaker 2: I mean, he's tweaking like Dave Chappelle and The Chappelle

1004
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:04,840
Speaker 2: Show eats unbelievable. They smash up his car the night before.

1005
00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:06,160
Speaker 1: I don't know, but.

1006
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:08,880
Speaker 2: I'm telling you, if fifty one was on one, dude

1007
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:11,880
Speaker 2: absolutely was two sacks. Didn't even play about twenty snaps

1008
00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:16,439
Speaker 2: or so. Will Anderson Junior a big star on Sunday.

1009
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:18,560
Speaker 1: Our biggest star is Andre Ware. Hold you on us.

1010
00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:18,799
Speaker 6: Next.

1011
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:20,680
Speaker 2: We got all kinds of things we're gonna talk about,

1012
00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:23,640
Speaker 2: including my analogy of expired milk.

1013
00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:24,960
Speaker 1: You see what I'm talking about next? Right, here in

1014
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:25,960
Speaker 1: Texans All Access.

1015
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:28,760
Speaker 2: Welcome back to the second hour of Texans All Access

1016
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 2: for this Monday evening. I'm your host, John Harris, Football

1017
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:33,480
Speaker 2: on a Sideline reporter, and it's time to catch up

1018
00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:35,600
Speaker 2: with our pal Andre Where. We had a blast talking

1019
00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:38,799
Speaker 2: to Dre. As always, we got into a lot of things.

1020
00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:41,879
Speaker 2: This was this fun a conversation we've had all year long.

1021
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:42,520
Speaker 1: Take a listen.

1022
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:46,919
Speaker 2: First down at the Tennessee twelve yard Live CJ thanks

1023
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:49,839
Speaker 2: the gear dumps it off short left Brevin Jordan across.

1024
00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:52,360
Speaker 1: The five walks in touchdown Houston.

1025
00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:57,200
Speaker 9: That play was made by the block of Damian Pierce.

1026
00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:01,359
Speaker 9: The ball never gets off if Pierce doesn't just get

1027
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:05,120
Speaker 9: a piece of one of the blitzers for the Tennessee Titans.

1028
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:10,239
Speaker 3: Nice revit. Jordan playing a lot of full back in

1029
00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:14,320
Speaker 3: that game. I got a good story about that play. Okay, Well,

1030
00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:16,759
Speaker 3: let's get all the stories here because Andre Ware joins

1031
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:20,359
Speaker 3: us now and we're it's storytime on Texans Monday. As

1032
00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:22,480
Speaker 3: the story is, the Texans will play for a playoff

1033
00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:30,000
Speaker 3: Berth on Saturday night against the dreaded, hated, despised, awful, horrific, horrible,

1034
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:34,400
Speaker 3: miserable horseshap in Indy and Trey. Not that I have

1035
00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:37,919
Speaker 3: feelings about this, but happy new year here we are.

1036
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:39,799
Speaker 3: Did you ever think it was possible? And I guess

1037
00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:41,759
Speaker 3: the answer is yes at some point this season. But

1038
00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:44,680
Speaker 3: in the offseason, we would have taken this every single

1039
00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:47,680
Speaker 3: day of the week and four times on Sunday.

1040
00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:49,880
Speaker 6: Yeah, there's no doubt about it.

1041
00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:52,200
Speaker 10: I mean you you know if you'd have told me

1042
00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:54,880
Speaker 10: this during the offseason, heck, yeah, it comes down to

1043
00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:59,759
Speaker 10: essentially shot at the division, a shot at making the

1044
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:03,319
Speaker 10: so whatever it was, and it comes down to the

1045
00:50:03,320 --> 00:50:06,120
Speaker 10: final week with the Colts, you're right out of taken

1046
00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:10,040
Speaker 10: it ten times over and let's go. Let's go rolling

1047
00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:12,440
Speaker 10: Dice in Indianapolis and see what happened.

1048
00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:13,680
Speaker 6: Dre.

1049
00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:15,879
Speaker 2: You know the position better than anybody in his town

1050
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:19,319
Speaker 2: or anywhere. Quarterbacks CJ. Stroud returns yesterday. What'd you think

1051
00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:19,920
Speaker 2: of the way CJ?

1052
00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:20,360
Speaker 1: Played?

1053
00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:23,600
Speaker 6: I thought he was solid, I thought he was consistent.

1054
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:28,120
Speaker 10: I thought the coaching staff did what was necessary to

1055
00:50:28,200 --> 00:50:33,160
Speaker 10: protect a franchise quarterback. Uh and the medical staff, everybody

1056
00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:36,160
Speaker 10: until he was one hundred percent don't let him back

1057
00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:39,880
Speaker 10: in games, And yesterday he was every bit of it.

1058
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:41,839
Speaker 6: I thought the timing was there.

1059
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:47,360
Speaker 10: He looked like, Uh, he'd basically just been unplugged, recharged

1060
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:50,120
Speaker 10: and then put back in and uh, And that's that's

1061
00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:51,600
Speaker 10: exactly how it came across.

1062
00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:53,359
Speaker 11: He was consistent, he was.

1063
00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:56,960
Speaker 10: Accurate, he moved well, and he was a big, big

1064
00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:59,319
Speaker 10: part of why they were able to do what they

1065
00:50:59,320 --> 00:50:59,960
Speaker 10: did yesterday.

1066
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:03,240
Speaker 3: It all right since Motor has entered the starting lineup

1067
00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:05,080
Speaker 3: in week nine. I think I don't know what the

1068
00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:07,560
Speaker 3: number is after yesterday, but I believe he's still in

1069
00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:12,200
Speaker 3: the top five in league rushers after entering the starting

1070
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:15,279
Speaker 3: lineup in week nine. So the question is this, do

1071
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:19,319
Speaker 3: they have the running game they clearly it's not all

1072
00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:21,279
Speaker 3: they want, but do they have the running game they

1073
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:25,560
Speaker 3: need as they head to Indianapolis and perhaps beyond on Saturdays?

1074
00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:30,160
Speaker 10: Right, Well, thank goodness that he was signed, because he

1075
00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:32,880
Speaker 10: does add some punch to what they want to do

1076
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:34,719
Speaker 10: in the running game.

1077
00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:36,520
Speaker 6: He just hits the hole a little bit faster.

1078
00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:40,439
Speaker 10: He gives them you know, in zone runs, he can

1079
00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:43,439
Speaker 10: stretch it and get bounce it outside. He's big enough

1080
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:47,840
Speaker 10: and strong enough to run between the tackles. And I

1081
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:50,640
Speaker 10: don't know that we expected it to be this way.

1082
00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:54,120
Speaker 10: I thought we'd expect Pierce to be doing what Singletary

1083
00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:57,640
Speaker 10: does in Singletary to be a complimentary piece to Pierce,

1084
00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:00,840
Speaker 10: but it's just the opposite. And you know, when you

1085
00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:03,640
Speaker 10: need you don't have to hold blocks quite as long.

1086
00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:07,080
Speaker 10: Pierce is still effective, don't get me wrong, but it

1087
00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:12,279
Speaker 10: just seems like Motor has found something within this particular

1088
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:15,840
Speaker 10: offensive line to where he's doing some special things in

1089
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:16,520
Speaker 10: the running game.

1090
00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:20,279
Speaker 3: So Singletary was the Bills leading rusher last year with

1091
00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:22,680
Speaker 3: eight hundred and nineteen yards. We all know Josh Allen

1092
00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:23,440
Speaker 3: runs the ball a lot.

1093
00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 6: There.

1094
00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:27,280
Speaker 3: He has eight thirty five right now. If he gets

1095
00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:30,680
Speaker 3: thirty six on Saturday night, he has his best year

1096
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:35,320
Speaker 3: of his career. He's remarkably consistent over four per carry

1097
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:38,000
Speaker 3: four point three this year, four point six last year.

1098
00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:41,080
Speaker 3: I mean, really is it's fun to follow and see

1099
00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:44,279
Speaker 3: how he puts all this together. And we mentioned the

1100
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:48,000
Speaker 3: Week nine thing. I'm looking at the numbers right now. Look,

1101
00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:50,120
Speaker 3: it's not crazy stuff. He had a buck twenty one

1102
00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:51,880
Speaker 3: against the Titans a couple of weeks ago, he had

1103
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:54,200
Speaker 3: eighty yesterday, obviously forty four last week, but he had

1104
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,839
Speaker 3: to abandon the run being down in that game. It's

1105
00:52:56,960 --> 00:52:59,719
Speaker 3: fun to watch now and Pierce looked a little bit

1106
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:01,799
Speaker 3: that or yesterday. So let's keep it going.

1107
00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:04,279
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean let him.

1108
00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:06,720
Speaker 10: Let's let's take him to India on a fast surface

1109
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:09,479
Speaker 10: and let him channel is Derek is his best, Dereck

1110
00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:13,279
Speaker 10: Harry and go off, you know, uh, go get go,

1111
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:16,080
Speaker 10: get two hundred in Indianapolis.

1112
00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:17,800
Speaker 11: And if that happens, I'm.

1113
00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:19,919
Speaker 6: Guaranteeing that the Texans come.

1114
00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:22,600
Speaker 10: Out of that thing with a win and and and

1115
00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:23,479
Speaker 10: a playoff berth.

1116
00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:26,359
Speaker 6: So uh, I think that'll be a big part of it.

1117
00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:28,400
Speaker 6: The Colts are no joke.

1118
00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:31,799
Speaker 10: It's a good solid football team across the board in

1119
00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:35,840
Speaker 10: all three phases. And uh to to, I think everybody's surprised.

1120
00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:39,080
Speaker 10: Gardner Minshew has played some has played well enough for

1121
00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:42,239
Speaker 10: the Colts to be in this position to get to

1122
00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:43,120
Speaker 10: the postseason.

1123
00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:43,680
Speaker 6: Jonathan.

1124
00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:47,200
Speaker 10: Having Jonathan Taylor back does not hurt one bit. That

1125
00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:50,360
Speaker 10: will be a challenge in and of itself because he

1126
00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:52,680
Speaker 10: is a totally different back from Derrick Henry.

1127
00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:53,480
Speaker 11: Uh.

1128
00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:54,560
Speaker 6: He can get.

1129
00:53:54,320 --> 00:53:57,560
Speaker 10: Started quicker, he hits the whole much like Motor does,

1130
00:53:58,160 --> 00:54:01,479
Speaker 10: and he's got power, he's got speed, he can catch

1131
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:03,799
Speaker 10: the ball out of the backfield. He's a three down back.

1132
00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:06,880
Speaker 10: This will be a tall order with that receiving corps

1133
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:09,919
Speaker 10: and especially the way Gardner Minshew is protecting the ball

1134
00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:10,640
Speaker 10: right now.

1135
00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:14,200
Speaker 2: Drey, I want to go back to the last Thursday

1136
00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:16,600
Speaker 2: in the month of April of twenty twenty three, and

1137
00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:19,200
Speaker 2: you and I are sitting next to one another when

1138
00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:22,200
Speaker 2: Robert Hensley raised up his finger after the Texans had

1139
00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:25,440
Speaker 2: drafted CJ. Stroud and gave us the news the Texans

1140
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:28,120
Speaker 2: were attempting to get back up to trade for Will Anderson.

1141
00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:30,960
Speaker 2: And you could see my Twitter avatar as you and

1142
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,840
Speaker 2: I shaking hands because we were so excited about Will Anderson.

1143
00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:36,680
Speaker 2: I feel, like Dre, that he has lived up to

1144
00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:38,799
Speaker 2: every ounce of the hype of what he's brought to

1145
00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:40,640
Speaker 2: this team. What have been your thoughts You've seen every

1146
00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:43,520
Speaker 2: single play Will Anderson's rookie year. What have been your

1147
00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:45,600
Speaker 2: thoughts of what Will has brought to this defense and

1148
00:54:45,640 --> 00:54:46,360
Speaker 2: how he's playing.

1149
00:54:47,280 --> 00:54:49,680
Speaker 10: I would describe it exactly like you have. He has

1150
00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:54,640
Speaker 10: lived up to everything anyone expected from him and beyond,

1151
00:54:54,840 --> 00:54:58,360
Speaker 10: and now he is starting to reach a next level

1152
00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:02,560
Speaker 10: defensive players because they're just all out every play, especially

1153
00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:05,560
Speaker 10: at his position, there is sort of a rookie wall.

1154
00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:06,479
Speaker 11: You don't feel that.

1155
00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:07,640
Speaker 6: With Will Anderson.

1156
00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:10,279
Speaker 10: You feel like he wants to be a part of

1157
00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:12,560
Speaker 10: every single game, every play.

1158
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:16,440
Speaker 6: He plays that way. Yesterday the two sacks, back to

1159
00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:17,600
Speaker 6: back sacks.

1160
00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:21,319
Speaker 10: Was just crazy, and they came at a time in

1161
00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:25,360
Speaker 10: which the Texans severely needed him, needed it to happen.

1162
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:29,520
Speaker 10: He's been magical, as I would say, equal to CJ.

1163
00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:32,560
Speaker 6: But on the other side of the ball in terms.

1164
00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:35,320
Speaker 10: Of what you expected, I don't know if I expected

1165
00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:38,080
Speaker 10: this from him. I certainly didn't expect it from CJ.

1166
00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:39,879
Speaker 6: But dang it, I'll take it.

1167
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:42,640
Speaker 3: I asked this some McClain, but I want to ask

1168
00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:45,160
Speaker 3: both of you. If you're the Tennessee Titans, are you

1169
00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:47,799
Speaker 3: all in on Will Levis for twenty twenty four or

1170
00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:51,600
Speaker 3: are you shopping for another potential signal callers?

1171
00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:52,520
Speaker 1: Ray you go first.

1172
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:57,480
Speaker 10: I think it's really, really, really important the next week

1173
00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:01,319
Speaker 10: against whether they play Jacksonville for Will Levis if he's

1174
00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:05,000
Speaker 10: able to go, and then if he's not or starts

1175
00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:07,759
Speaker 10: a game and then he can't, then it's an incomplete

1176
00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:09,600
Speaker 10: grade and you just don't know it. I think they're

1177
00:56:09,640 --> 00:56:12,799
Speaker 10: in the same place they are with the other kid

1178
00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:16,440
Speaker 10: from Liberty, So you just don't know Malik Willis.

1179
00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:17,520
Speaker 6: You just don't know.

1180
00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:18,439
Speaker 11: They bring them back.

1181
00:56:18,520 --> 00:56:20,319
Speaker 6: They those two go at it in.

1182
00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:23,080
Speaker 10: Camp and maybe you bring in a veteran to uh

1183
00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:26,480
Speaker 10: to compliment both of the younger, younger.

1184
00:56:26,160 --> 00:56:28,120
Speaker 6: Guys, but they fight it out in camp.

1185
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:30,839
Speaker 10: You spend a third round pick on a quarterback and

1186
00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:33,399
Speaker 10: now a second round pick on a quarterback. I think

1187
00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:36,360
Speaker 10: they almost have to give will Levis the keys to

1188
00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:39,000
Speaker 10: at least start next season to see if if he

1189
00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:40,239
Speaker 10: is he's indeed their guy.

1190
00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:46,880
Speaker 2: I think I think dres On it. I I'm looking.

1191
00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:52,680
Speaker 2: I'm looking at every single quarterback option that absolutely every option,

1192
00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:57,560
Speaker 2: including Joe Oh he's hot. Well, I think I think

1193
00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:01,719
Speaker 2: the Titans, no doubt, go ahead right now.

1194
00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:04,239
Speaker 10: I was just saying that if with Flacco he's so

1195
00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:06,799
Speaker 10: hot that I don't think he can go back to

1196
00:57:06,840 --> 00:57:10,840
Speaker 10: Cleveland because if you're if you're a coach there or

1197
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:13,719
Speaker 10: one of the front office guys, that locker room is

1198
00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:16,680
Speaker 10: split right now, and are you going to go into

1199
00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:19,760
Speaker 10: twenty twenty four that way, because and it may not

1200
00:57:19,840 --> 00:57:22,120
Speaker 10: even be split, it might be one sided, and you

1201
00:57:22,320 --> 00:57:25,760
Speaker 10: just there's a mutiny when the other guy comes back

1202
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:29,480
Speaker 10: because they want Flacco, and they've won with Flacco and

1203
00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:33,720
Speaker 10: without all their pieces with Flaco, so you know it,

1204
00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:38,320
Speaker 10: they've got a real problem in Cleveland that's brewing unless

1205
00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:41,160
Speaker 10: the Shawn comes back and he is.

1206
00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:43,280
Speaker 6: Every bit of what they thought they were getting.

1207
00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:47,120
Speaker 10: But I just don't see missing almost three full seasons

1208
00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:49,320
Speaker 10: of how that could even be possible.

1209
00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:52,840
Speaker 3: Wait, wait, hang out a second. Since we're on the subject.

1210
00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:54,720
Speaker 3: It is the greatest reality show in the world. There's

1211
00:57:54,720 --> 00:57:57,800
Speaker 3: no doubt. The NFL and this is yep, definitely a

1212
00:57:57,840 --> 00:58:02,080
Speaker 3: lot of episodes because if Flaco, let's say he goes

1213
00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:06,120
Speaker 3: to the AFC Championship Game or gasp, the super Bowl

1214
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:09,280
Speaker 3: and plays really well, turns back the clock to twenty twelve,

1215
00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:12,000
Speaker 3: how do you go back? Look, I know the money's

1216
00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:14,680
Speaker 3: in there, but how do you go back? I don't

1217
00:58:14,680 --> 00:58:15,280
Speaker 3: get it that.

1218
00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:17,960
Speaker 6: You're right, he comes to Broco approach.

1219
00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:21,120
Speaker 10: Yeah, you might just take the Denver Bronco approach and

1220
00:58:21,240 --> 00:58:23,680
Speaker 10: just you know, hey, we're gonna eat it and move all.

1221
00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:23,960
Speaker 1: But the.

1222
00:58:27,480 --> 00:58:30,320
Speaker 6: Crazy I mean, every pinny of it is guaranteed.

1223
00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:33,640
Speaker 11: So who knows, I mean.

1224
00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:35,480
Speaker 6: And who's going to sign up for that trade with

1225
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:36,640
Speaker 6: that contract.

1226
00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:37,040
Speaker 5: No.

1227
00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:41,520
Speaker 2: I mean, this might be the only way that this

1228
00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:45,000
Speaker 2: could happen in Cleveland. That the Baltimore Ravens super Bowl

1229
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:47,760
Speaker 2: winning quarterback leads them to a super Bowl.

1230
00:58:48,080 --> 00:58:50,520
Speaker 1: That's got to be the only way this can happen.

1231
00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:54,080
Speaker 2: And the former crazy, I know, I know what it

1232
00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:56,480
Speaker 2: really is, Dre.

1233
00:58:56,640 --> 00:58:59,680
Speaker 1: You kind of said it, and this gave me a thought.

1234
00:58:59,680 --> 00:59:03,120
Speaker 2: If I'm Tennessee, I maybe think about this, maybe to

1235
00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:07,280
Speaker 2: buy myself some time with Levis, I go get Joe Flacco,

1236
00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:11,480
Speaker 2: I put him in this offense. I let lews stay

1237
00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:16,160
Speaker 2: and learn from Flacco, and maybe there becomes another point

1238
00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:20,440
Speaker 2: where the Flacco expiration date hits and then Lewis has

1239
00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:23,040
Speaker 2: to take back over. Maybe that saves them from having

1240
00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 2: to spend a first round pick on a quarterback because

1241
00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:30,200
Speaker 2: they have way more issues than what's going out of quarterback.

1242
00:59:30,240 --> 00:59:33,000
Speaker 2: Because what the paper mache offensive line that was in

1243
00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:35,720
Speaker 2: front of Levis and Daniel yesterday has got to be

1244
00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:36,280
Speaker 2: blown up.

1245
00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:38,240
Speaker 1: I mean it's got to be blown up.

1246
00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:39,280
Speaker 6: It has to.

1247
00:59:39,440 --> 00:59:42,000
Speaker 10: And I you know, you looked at you looked at Tennessee.

1248
00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:45,960
Speaker 10: You know, I think all three of the other teams

1249
00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:48,200
Speaker 10: in the division. You look at their offensive line you

1250
00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:52,320
Speaker 10: were almost envious at one point with what Tennessee had upfront.

1251
00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:55,600
Speaker 10: That's all gone. Now you were almost envious at what

1252
00:59:56,280 --> 00:59:57,560
Speaker 10: the Colts had up front.

1253
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:00,360
Speaker 6: It's still decent there. They're still able to run football.

1254
01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:02,800
Speaker 10: And then Jacksonville I think has an offensive line with

1255
01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:07,400
Speaker 10: Cam Robinson is healthy, it's a pretty good offensive line,

1256
01:00:07,640 --> 01:00:11,160
Speaker 10: but he has not been available a lot for Jacksonville.

1257
01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:14,560
Speaker 10: So when you look at it, Tennessee's probably got the

1258
01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:17,320
Speaker 10: weakest offensive line within the division.

1259
01:00:17,720 --> 01:00:19,080
Speaker 6: And it happened in a hurry.

1260
01:00:19,760 --> 01:00:23,080
Speaker 3: Mm hmm, yeah, oh yeah, yeah, it got taken down

1261
01:00:23,160 --> 01:00:25,440
Speaker 3: very fast. Another one for both of you. Way closer

1262
01:00:25,480 --> 01:00:27,640
Speaker 3: to home though, And I don't want to see this,

1263
01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:30,720
Speaker 3: but Gardner Minshew and the Colts, this is entirely in

1264
01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:32,040
Speaker 3: play that they.

1265
01:00:31,840 --> 01:00:32,600
Speaker 2: Go on a run.

1266
01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:34,880
Speaker 3: I don't want to see it. But if it happens,

1267
01:00:35,120 --> 01:00:37,640
Speaker 3: what do they do about Richardson? Because they have Richardson

1268
01:00:37,880 --> 01:00:40,560
Speaker 3: And if they ultimately lose, and it's not really Minshew's fault,

1269
01:00:40,760 --> 01:00:43,680
Speaker 3: they just couldn't get over the top what happens there

1270
01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:45,680
Speaker 3: because Minshew can clearly play.

1271
01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:48,120
Speaker 1: Look, they got nine wins right here without Richardson.

1272
01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:52,840
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think I think with that situation it's it's

1273
01:00:52,880 --> 01:00:55,360
Speaker 10: a little bit different in the fact that they.

1274
01:00:55,280 --> 01:00:58,000
Speaker 6: Can bring Richardson back slowly and.

1275
01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:01,280
Speaker 10: I mean as slow as they want to, and that

1276
01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:05,640
Speaker 10: gives them time with Minshew and Richardson can now learn.

1277
01:01:05,720 --> 01:01:08,960
Speaker 10: He takes a totally different role and approach to what

1278
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:11,880
Speaker 10: they did for twenty twenty three. I don't think they're

1279
01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:14,560
Speaker 10: going to be as in a hurry to get him

1280
01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:16,640
Speaker 10: back on the fields as they.

1281
01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:18,720
Speaker 6: Did this year. It was just kind of, Hey, this

1282
01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:21,320
Speaker 6: was going to be a let's see what happens here.

1283
01:01:21,720 --> 01:01:22,800
Speaker 6: I wouldn't call it a.

1284
01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:25,760
Speaker 10: Wasted year, but they were willing to just see what

1285
01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:28,000
Speaker 10: happened with the rookie quarterback, so that he takes his

1286
01:01:28,080 --> 01:01:32,160
Speaker 10: bumps and bruises and then next year they make a jump. Well,

1287
01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:35,680
Speaker 10: it happened faster than they thought. Everybody wants to win,

1288
01:01:36,280 --> 01:01:38,920
Speaker 10: and so they're going to ride with Minshew if he

1289
01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:39,520
Speaker 10: takes them.

1290
01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:40,680
Speaker 6: On a deep playoff run.

1291
01:01:40,840 --> 01:01:43,520
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think it's his job to start the season

1292
01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:47,640
Speaker 10: next year, and Anthony Richardson now has someone to learn from.

1293
01:01:48,120 --> 01:01:52,720
Speaker 2: Okay, have y'all ever gone at defrigerator and many times

1294
01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:56,720
Speaker 2: and you've looked at the milk and you're like, yeah, yeah, yeah,

1295
01:01:56,760 --> 01:01:59,640
Speaker 2: and you want that ball Cereal and the expiration day

1296
01:01:59,800 --> 01:02:03,000
Speaker 2: is like, you're pushing it borderline. Your bit's borderline. Man,

1297
01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:05,840
Speaker 2: you're right right there, right.

1298
01:02:07,640 --> 01:02:07,800
Speaker 1: Right.

1299
01:02:07,840 --> 01:02:09,520
Speaker 3: You gotta pass the spell. He has the problem with

1300
01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:12,560
Speaker 3: the smelling the milk. You're smelling the edge of the

1301
01:02:12,640 --> 01:02:15,760
Speaker 3: bottle maybe and it has the crud on it. You

1302
01:02:15,760 --> 01:02:17,480
Speaker 3: gotta pour a glass then smell it.

1303
01:02:17,520 --> 01:02:22,920
Speaker 2: That's right, then, Gardner Minshew, is that milk like the

1304
01:02:22,960 --> 01:02:27,520
Speaker 2: expiration date is, You're like, right, you're right there, You're

1305
01:02:27,320 --> 01:02:28,440
Speaker 2: you're close.

1306
01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:34,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, right, but but that's the But you think.

1307
01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:36,080
Speaker 2: About it in that same way, like, man, I could really,

1308
01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:37,200
Speaker 2: I could really push.

1309
01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:39,200
Speaker 1: This or I gotta go to the store.

1310
01:02:39,320 --> 01:02:40,960
Speaker 2: I gotta get more milk, and as sure as hell,

1311
01:02:40,960 --> 01:02:42,120
Speaker 2: I'm not going at ten pm.

1312
01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:43,520
Speaker 1: I want this bowl Cereal.

1313
01:02:43,920 --> 01:02:46,480
Speaker 2: You push that expiration date even to a point like

1314
01:02:46,520 --> 01:02:48,600
Speaker 2: it might be a day or two past. I think

1315
01:02:48,640 --> 01:02:50,280
Speaker 2: that's the way the Colts are gonna be with Minshew

1316
01:02:50,280 --> 01:02:52,880
Speaker 2: and that and Dre said, you said it. You let

1317
01:02:53,040 --> 01:02:57,120
Speaker 2: Richardson get fully healthy, because that guy has to be

1318
01:02:57,720 --> 01:02:59,760
Speaker 2: to play his brand of football.

1319
01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:02,160
Speaker 1: He has to be one hundred percent healthy.

1320
01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:04,160
Speaker 2: That shoulder has to be on point and I'm telling

1321
01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:06,400
Speaker 2: you right now that shoulder has been an issue since

1322
01:03:06,440 --> 01:03:08,880
Speaker 2: his senior year and East Side High in Gainesville.

1323
01:03:09,200 --> 01:03:11,440
Speaker 1: It's not on QB one. You could see it.

1324
01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:14,320
Speaker 2: He was dealing with that thing his senior year in

1325
01:03:14,600 --> 01:03:17,880
Speaker 2: high school and they never chose to get it right

1326
01:03:18,040 --> 01:03:19,880
Speaker 2: until he gets to the culture and they're like, hey, man,

1327
01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:23,320
Speaker 2: let's look, we have been chew. Let's hope he doesn't

1328
01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:26,520
Speaker 2: hit the expiration date in October and we haven't yet.

1329
01:03:26,600 --> 01:03:29,360
Speaker 2: Hopefully it hits on Sunday. Hopefully the milk goes sour

1330
01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:31,640
Speaker 2: on Sunday. And if one of you doesn't use the

1331
01:03:31,640 --> 01:03:34,240
Speaker 2: milk is going sour when he picks gets a pick,

1332
01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:35,920
Speaker 2: I will be very disappointed with you.

1333
01:03:35,960 --> 01:03:37,600
Speaker 3: All right, Can we get to the things that upset

1334
01:03:37,600 --> 01:03:40,760
Speaker 3: me category of the program? Okay, things that upset me,

1335
01:03:40,960 --> 01:03:44,560
Speaker 3: But I've got a solution. What happened in the game

1336
01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:48,000
Speaker 3: with the Lions and the Cowboys. Oh, hear me out,

1337
01:03:48,080 --> 01:03:52,960
Speaker 3: hear me out. Body cams for the officials of sorts.

1338
01:03:53,160 --> 01:03:57,880
Speaker 3: All right, let's go to the body cam, bodycam and

1339
01:03:57,960 --> 01:03:58,400
Speaker 3: micd up.

1340
01:03:58,600 --> 01:03:58,920
Speaker 2: Listen.

1341
01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:00,440
Speaker 1: That was huge.

1342
01:04:00,720 --> 01:04:04,400
Speaker 3: That was you could you imagine if the Lions playoff

1343
01:04:04,520 --> 01:04:06,680
Speaker 3: lives hung in the balance of that.

1344
01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:08,040
Speaker 1: Now, look, they won.

1345
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:10,040
Speaker 3: The division and everything, but it still would have been

1346
01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:11,960
Speaker 3: nice to get that win, and I'm sure the Eagles

1347
01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:15,040
Speaker 3: would have really appreciated it. So it was a seismic

1348
01:04:15,240 --> 01:04:19,440
Speaker 3: shift of things occurring in Big D. I think that

1349
01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:22,440
Speaker 3: there's gotta be a way to review it, confirm it,

1350
01:04:22,520 --> 01:04:25,040
Speaker 3: deny it, whatever. There's got to be something here, because

1351
01:04:25,080 --> 01:04:26,400
Speaker 3: that was ridiculous.

1352
01:04:28,080 --> 01:04:33,120
Speaker 10: Yeah, it's it's, it's it's. That's all you can say

1353
01:04:33,240 --> 01:04:36,480
Speaker 10: is how bad it was, how ridiculous it was. I

1354
01:04:36,800 --> 01:04:40,760
Speaker 10: think as well though, as as a team and as

1355
01:04:40,760 --> 01:04:43,120
Speaker 10: a head coach of a team, when you get a

1356
01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:46,920
Speaker 10: penalty and you go backwards, and you get another penalty

1357
01:04:47,280 --> 01:04:50,000
Speaker 10: and you go backwards, and now you're taking your third shot.

1358
01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:54,400
Speaker 10: Oh yeah, had a two point conversion after the first time.

1359
01:04:54,920 --> 01:04:57,840
Speaker 10: When it doesn't work out, kick the damn extra point

1360
01:04:58,440 --> 01:05:01,960
Speaker 10: and let's go into overtime and see what happens. But

1361
01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:07,400
Speaker 10: the machoism of Dan Campbell, I think unless he changes,

1362
01:05:08,120 --> 01:05:11,600
Speaker 10: what's gonna hold that team back and they're gonna continue to.

1363
01:05:11,640 --> 01:05:12,520
Speaker 6: Come up short.

1364
01:05:12,800 --> 01:05:15,720
Speaker 10: It's a good point after the first one, after the

1365
01:05:15,760 --> 01:05:18,840
Speaker 10: person is completing and gets snatched off the scoreboard, Kick

1366
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:19,919
Speaker 10: the damn extra point.

1367
01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:21,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was.

1368
01:05:21,440 --> 01:05:24,840
Speaker 2: It was pretty clear to me, Dre. He just wasn't

1369
01:05:24,880 --> 01:05:27,360
Speaker 2: going to overtime. He wanted to settle it right now.

1370
01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:30,240
Speaker 1: He did not. This is this is my hunch on

1371
01:05:30,280 --> 01:05:30,800
Speaker 1: the whole thing.

1372
01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:34,320
Speaker 2: I feel like he did not want at this time

1373
01:05:34,360 --> 01:05:37,800
Speaker 2: of year his guys to play ten additional more minutes.

1374
01:05:38,480 --> 01:05:41,440
Speaker 1: That's just that's my my read on it. And I

1375
01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:43,680
Speaker 1: when they don't need it in air quotes.

1376
01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:45,720
Speaker 2: Right right, and I mean they just want a division.

1377
01:05:45,880 --> 01:05:47,520
Speaker 2: I mean that that's the way I looked at it.

1378
01:05:47,600 --> 01:05:48,240
Speaker 1: I mean, then the.

1379
01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:50,360
Speaker 2: Cowboys helped them out with the off side penalty that

1380
01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:52,960
Speaker 2: got them a little bit closer. But still I feel like,

1381
01:05:53,200 --> 01:05:55,280
Speaker 2: and from that standpoint, Dre, I mean, you know this

1382
01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:59,640
Speaker 2: is as well as anybody, the sixteen game schedule was

1383
01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:00,400
Speaker 2: a grind.

1384
01:06:01,080 --> 01:06:02,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, seventeen.

1385
01:06:02,240 --> 01:06:05,360
Speaker 2: I know it's one more game, but it feels so

1386
01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:09,360
Speaker 2: much more of a grind with seventeen. I almost if

1387
01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:11,480
Speaker 2: that's what his thinking was, that like, I'm just not

1388
01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:13,040
Speaker 2: going another ten minutes because we got a lot of

1389
01:06:13,040 --> 01:06:13,880
Speaker 2: football to play.

1390
01:06:14,200 --> 01:06:15,920
Speaker 1: There's a part of me that I don't want to

1391
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:17,960
Speaker 1: say respects it, but I kind of do. But man,

1392
01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:18,920
Speaker 1: it's a long season.

1393
01:06:19,840 --> 01:06:21,960
Speaker 10: It is, I mean, and then you know, if you

1394
01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:26,240
Speaker 10: start entertaining, well, let's go the two preseason games and

1395
01:06:26,320 --> 01:06:27,600
Speaker 10: eighteen regular.

1396
01:06:27,200 --> 01:06:30,120
Speaker 11: Season games like they do in Canada, then.

1397
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:32,720
Speaker 10: It really gets super long. And that's not out of

1398
01:06:32,760 --> 01:06:34,160
Speaker 10: the realm of possibility, by the.

1399
01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:36,840
Speaker 6: Way, not at all. So that that has been discussed

1400
01:06:36,880 --> 01:06:37,200
Speaker 6: a lot.

1401
01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:40,120
Speaker 11: And you know, as long as guys don't play in.

1402
01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:42,360
Speaker 10: The preseason, you know they're they're going to find a

1403
01:06:42,360 --> 01:06:45,920
Speaker 10: way to get an extra game out of it. So

1404
01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:48,360
Speaker 10: you might want to start suiting up and in the

1405
01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:51,160
Speaker 10: preseason like the old days and stop these. And then

1406
01:06:51,200 --> 01:06:54,280
Speaker 10: one way you can stop it is these the inner

1407
01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:55,800
Speaker 10: squad practices or.

1408
01:06:55,720 --> 01:06:59,800
Speaker 6: Whatever it is that they're called during the preseason. I

1409
01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:01,320
Speaker 6: want those to go away.

1410
01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:04,040
Speaker 10: Just from a broadcast standpoint, so we'll get the damn

1411
01:07:04,040 --> 01:07:06,840
Speaker 10: players on the field that we're looking to see.

1412
01:07:06,520 --> 01:07:07,400
Speaker 6: In the preseason.

1413
01:07:07,800 --> 01:07:08,640
Speaker 11: So I hate them.

1414
01:07:08,680 --> 01:07:09,800
Speaker 6: I hate those practices.

1415
01:07:09,880 --> 01:07:12,680
Speaker 10: Coaches may love them because they can control the environment

1416
01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:16,080
Speaker 10: and so on and so forth, but there is no

1417
01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:19,960
Speaker 10: rhyme or reason that any research has been done that

1418
01:07:19,960 --> 01:07:23,880
Speaker 10: that saves players from injury or whatever.

1419
01:07:24,040 --> 01:07:26,600
Speaker 6: So I just I just think that needs to go away.

1420
01:07:27,120 --> 01:07:30,080
Speaker 3: Well, as amazing as the regular season TV ratings have

1421
01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:34,640
Speaker 3: been and Christmas Day was ridiculous, Christmas Eve, Christmas fantastic ratings.

1422
01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:37,760
Speaker 3: The preseason ratings are going down because they're kind of

1423
01:07:37,800 --> 01:07:40,280
Speaker 3: killing the preseason with the lack of participation. But that's

1424
01:07:40,280 --> 01:07:42,520
Speaker 3: a whole other topic for the offseason.

1425
01:07:42,680 --> 01:07:44,400
Speaker 11: Well ratings.

1426
01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:47,280
Speaker 6: Stay on that subject for me for just a second.

1427
01:07:47,720 --> 01:07:49,520
Speaker 6: Uh huh. Pop Tart Bowl, which.

1428
01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:53,960
Speaker 11: I was a part of, the Paul karkaterra y.

1429
01:07:54,480 --> 01:07:56,680
Speaker 6: We pulled a four point.

1430
01:07:56,480 --> 01:08:01,600
Speaker 10: Three in the ratings, the highest rated bowl game thus

1431
01:08:01,720 --> 01:08:05,120
Speaker 10: far to be played. So you know, you talk about

1432
01:08:05,200 --> 01:08:08,520
Speaker 10: something that I'm awfully proud of. That is something that

1433
01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:11,040
Speaker 10: I'm awfully proud of being a part of that bowl

1434
01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:13,440
Speaker 10: game because I thought, what in the hell is the

1435
01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:14,280
Speaker 10: Pop Tart Bowl?

1436
01:08:14,560 --> 01:08:16,559
Speaker 11: And then all of a sudden it rates higher than

1437
01:08:16,920 --> 01:08:17,759
Speaker 11: anything else.

1438
01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:19,519
Speaker 6: Yes, and we were a part of it.

1439
01:08:19,600 --> 01:08:21,400
Speaker 11: So I am awfully proud of that.

1440
01:08:21,920 --> 01:08:27,880
Speaker 2: All right to my own horn this morning, Go ahead,

1441
01:08:26,880 --> 01:08:29,080
Speaker 2: you get a pop tart to eat.

1442
01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:32,160
Speaker 3: You know, I'm really upset that that Touchdowner of the

1443
01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:34,680
Speaker 3: Year dinner already occurred, because I want to get up

1444
01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:37,040
Speaker 3: there and talk about your proudest moments and I'll be

1445
01:08:37,120 --> 01:08:42,080
Speaker 3: like the Heisman and the pop Tart bowl and it's

1446
01:08:40,840 --> 01:08:44,679
Speaker 3: it's it's kind of a tough right, Donny.

1447
01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:47,720
Speaker 10: To answer your question that night, I did not eat

1448
01:08:47,720 --> 01:08:53,920
Speaker 10: a pop tart, and it's because they only had frosted.

1449
01:08:55,960 --> 01:08:58,800
Speaker 10: Fire is my way, that's my way to go, and

1450
01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:01,639
Speaker 10: so it's been that way. So I was probably oh

1451
01:09:02,280 --> 01:09:05,160
Speaker 10: four or five six years old. I've been eating pop

1452
01:09:05,200 --> 01:09:05,920
Speaker 10: tarts that long.

1453
01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:09,120
Speaker 2: Oh you know what, See, I gotta have the frosted

1454
01:09:09,800 --> 01:09:10,960
Speaker 2: and I like the fruit filling.

1455
01:09:11,760 --> 01:09:15,080
Speaker 1: I've had that frosted with the brown shirt maple brown ship.

1456
01:09:15,120 --> 01:09:16,960
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, I have not had one since I

1457
01:09:17,040 --> 01:09:20,559
Speaker 3: was five or something. But it's genius marketing.

1458
01:09:20,960 --> 01:09:22,439
Speaker 2: It was a total home run.

1459
01:09:22,800 --> 01:09:25,559
Speaker 3: I mean, never mind the amazing TV rating, the after

1460
01:09:25,640 --> 01:09:27,960
Speaker 3: effect of all the social media, with the fact that

1461
01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:29,639
Speaker 3: we're debating pop tarts.

1462
01:09:30,280 --> 01:09:32,479
Speaker 2: People know what the trophy looks like.

1463
01:09:32,720 --> 01:09:36,679
Speaker 3: The mascot was brilliant turning it into an actual pop tart.

1464
01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:39,000
Speaker 1: That that leaves all the other bulls scrambling.

1465
01:09:39,280 --> 01:09:41,920
Speaker 3: Listen, I have to have a mascot that we can

1466
01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:44,200
Speaker 3: eat or something, right, I have to have something.

1467
01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:48,559
Speaker 6: Who did the marketing campaign for this? This bowl's gotta

1468
01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:51,360
Speaker 6: go higher that moment. Whoever, if I'm marketing.

1469
01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:55,360
Speaker 3: Yes, if I'm selling both sponsorships, Oh my gosh, raight,

1470
01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:57,200
Speaker 3: I'm going to M and m's now saying listen, I

1471
01:09:57,200 --> 01:09:59,120
Speaker 3: can get your guys on the field and we're gonna

1472
01:09:59,120 --> 01:10:00,000
Speaker 3: we're gonna do some crazy.

1473
01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:03,040
Speaker 1: Think back to the Outback Bowl, Think back to the

1474
01:10:03,040 --> 01:10:03,639
Speaker 1: Outback Ball.

1475
01:10:03,840 --> 01:10:06,560
Speaker 2: Your buddy and Michael Kubrick, who was doing the sidelines,

1476
01:10:06,760 --> 01:10:09,520
Speaker 2: they had him eating a blooming onion in the stands

1477
01:10:10,040 --> 01:10:15,680
Speaker 2: and it went viral. Yeah, like everybody was talking about

1478
01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:18,400
Speaker 2: the mayonnaise is disgusting, but it went viral.

1479
01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:20,800
Speaker 1: Right, So that's the thing, all right, things that upset me?

1480
01:10:20,880 --> 01:10:24,280
Speaker 2: Part two? Can we all agree? Because I was getting text.

1481
01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:28,280
Speaker 3: From people, Oh, this proves that Florida State never belonged.

1482
01:10:27,880 --> 01:10:29,280
Speaker 1: To the I think it stopped.

1483
01:10:29,320 --> 01:10:31,000
Speaker 2: Stop just stop yourself.

1484
01:10:31,920 --> 01:10:32,400
Speaker 6: Stop it.

1485
01:10:33,600 --> 01:10:36,240
Speaker 3: They totally belong This is not even them. This is

1486
01:10:36,280 --> 01:10:39,680
Speaker 3: an imposter team. This is guys in Florida State jerseys

1487
01:10:39,720 --> 01:10:40,640
Speaker 3: playing Georgia.

1488
01:10:40,640 --> 01:10:42,559
Speaker 2: Come on, I'm in the.

1489
01:10:42,479 --> 01:10:43,519
Speaker 6: Middle of this.

1490
01:10:43,640 --> 01:10:46,440
Speaker 10: I read article and I was talking to Enrique Vasquez

1491
01:10:46,560 --> 01:10:49,920
Speaker 10: before the game yesterday about how to fix college football,

1492
01:10:49,960 --> 01:10:50,559
Speaker 10: and he said.

1493
01:10:50,400 --> 01:10:51,800
Speaker 6: Hey, this is a theory that I have.

1494
01:10:52,560 --> 01:10:57,840
Speaker 10: It's basically moved the bowl season two Week zero still.

1495
01:10:57,600 --> 01:10:58,400
Speaker 6: Have the playoffs.

1496
01:10:58,439 --> 01:11:01,160
Speaker 10: Whoever makes the playoffs, move both the other balls the

1497
01:11:01,160 --> 01:11:02,040
Speaker 10: Week zero.

1498
01:11:02,080 --> 01:11:03,879
Speaker 6: And you get you get rid of the opt.

1499
01:11:03,720 --> 01:11:07,360
Speaker 10: Outs, because if you're playing for a national championship, guys are.

1500
01:11:07,200 --> 01:11:08,679
Speaker 6: Going to play in those games.

1501
01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:10,679
Speaker 10: But if you move it and then all of a sudden,

1502
01:11:10,680 --> 01:11:13,360
Speaker 10: I find this article, this big, long article on ESPN,

1503
01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:16,280
Speaker 10: and they made it make sense. It would take a

1504
01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:20,680
Speaker 10: lot of the way we think about college football already

1505
01:11:20,760 --> 01:11:24,000
Speaker 10: has changed, so it's going to be a drastic change

1506
01:11:24,360 --> 01:11:27,680
Speaker 10: for this to happen, but it's not out of the realm.

1507
01:11:27,400 --> 01:11:29,280
Speaker 6: Of possibility for that to happen.

1508
01:11:29,320 --> 01:11:32,200
Speaker 10: And then whoever doesn't make balls, you just match them up,

1509
01:11:32,240 --> 01:11:35,879
Speaker 10: so everybody's got a Week zero game going into the season.

1510
01:11:35,920 --> 01:11:39,240
Speaker 10: You stop the op out opt outs, and a u

1511
01:11:39,360 --> 01:11:43,439
Speaker 10: cpis in the bowl games, and that's basically what you.

1512
01:11:43,520 --> 01:11:45,400
Speaker 6: Have to really get a handle back on.

1513
01:11:45,560 --> 01:11:48,719
Speaker 11: So I don't know if that flies, but I think.

1514
01:11:48,560 --> 01:11:52,160
Speaker 10: It's a pretty dagam good idea to stop guys from

1515
01:11:52,320 --> 01:11:56,040
Speaker 10: from opting out and not fulfilling whatever commitment they may

1516
01:11:56,080 --> 01:11:57,160
Speaker 10: have signed on the front end.

1517
01:11:57,720 --> 01:12:00,479
Speaker 3: I do like shaking up the thinking. I do like

1518
01:12:00,520 --> 01:12:02,880
Speaker 3: that part of it's pretty interesting, is you can, I

1519
01:12:02,880 --> 01:12:07,040
Speaker 3: mean like shaking it up and trying to other ways

1520
01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:08,679
Speaker 3: to do it. Yeah, because when you go to twelve,

1521
01:12:08,720 --> 01:12:12,400
Speaker 3: it's gonna be crazy this, but there's gonna be There're

1522
01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:15,760
Speaker 3: gonna be way more pop tart type bulls sponsorships.

1523
01:12:16,160 --> 01:12:18,599
Speaker 2: You have to go more Savannah bananas.

1524
01:12:18,360 --> 01:12:22,080
Speaker 3: Than actual button down sports stuff here with the bowl

1525
01:12:22,120 --> 01:12:25,040
Speaker 3: games as far as the outside of everything, the presentation

1526
01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:25,479
Speaker 3: of it all.

1527
01:12:25,600 --> 01:12:27,960
Speaker 11: So essentially you're gonna add.

1528
01:12:27,880 --> 01:12:28,959
Speaker 6: Essentially, you're gonna.

1529
01:12:28,720 --> 01:12:32,760
Speaker 10: Add a preseason game, which is a bowl game to

1530
01:12:32,880 --> 01:12:36,040
Speaker 10: the start of the season. That's week zero, and it's

1531
01:12:36,040 --> 01:12:38,880
Speaker 10: just don't like those games don't count. And then you

1532
01:12:38,960 --> 01:12:41,960
Speaker 10: go into the regular season and essentially it's as well,

1533
01:12:42,080 --> 01:12:45,880
Speaker 10: it's our seniors. Hey, thank you for contributing to the program.

1534
01:12:45,960 --> 01:12:48,439
Speaker 10: If you want to leave early, you're already gone. If

1535
01:12:48,479 --> 01:12:51,920
Speaker 10: coaching changes are made, that's already been done. And then

1536
01:12:52,320 --> 01:12:55,200
Speaker 10: those coaches are now coaching in bowl games. Because I

1537
01:12:55,280 --> 01:12:59,759
Speaker 10: get so sick of guys taking jobs and then sitting

1538
01:13:00,520 --> 01:13:01,680
Speaker 10: when the coaching.

1539
01:13:01,320 --> 01:13:03,400
Speaker 11: Staff leaves and not stepping in.

1540
01:13:03,520 --> 01:13:06,479
Speaker 10: It's your job and your football team and they're your kids.

1541
01:13:06,520 --> 01:13:07,479
Speaker 11: Now, go coach.

1542
01:13:07,520 --> 01:13:10,080
Speaker 3: I couldn't listen if I took a job like that,

1543
01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:12,120
Speaker 3: I couldn't not coach.

1544
01:13:12,320 --> 01:13:13,840
Speaker 2: I would say, I got to coach his team.

1545
01:13:14,240 --> 01:13:16,760
Speaker 10: I don't care who's back, And how do you sit

1546
01:13:16,840 --> 01:13:20,040
Speaker 10: back and watch that happen and that's now your program

1547
01:13:20,560 --> 01:13:24,240
Speaker 10: and you've been hired, already signed and you sit back. Oh,

1548
01:13:24,280 --> 01:13:28,040
Speaker 10: I don't step on campus until you know January first.

1549
01:13:28,479 --> 01:13:30,240
Speaker 6: No, go coach those kids.

1550
01:13:30,280 --> 01:13:33,479
Speaker 3: It's so weird because we interviewed Elijah Robinson and there

1551
01:13:33,520 --> 01:13:35,200
Speaker 3: he is coaching the Aggies. He's on his way to

1552
01:13:35,200 --> 01:13:38,800
Speaker 3: what Syracuse Syracuse right, he's coaching the Ages in Syracuse.

1553
01:13:38,880 --> 01:13:41,400
Speaker 3: The new coach is not coach. It's bizarre. And look,

1554
01:13:41,479 --> 01:13:44,360
Speaker 3: I complimented Mike Gundy on the air. I said, Hey,

1555
01:13:44,560 --> 01:13:47,240
Speaker 3: this is awesome. You've been there forever you played there,

1556
01:13:47,520 --> 01:13:52,440
Speaker 3: You've had opportunities to leave, You've had eighteen consecutive winning seasons.

1557
01:13:52,560 --> 01:13:55,040
Speaker 3: You always finished second, third, fourth, and big whatever it is.

1558
01:13:55,120 --> 01:13:57,200
Speaker 3: I didn't word it like that to him directly, but

1559
01:13:57,280 --> 01:14:00,000
Speaker 3: I like that he's been there forever, that he's devoted

1560
01:14:00,080 --> 01:14:02,000
Speaker 3: to his school, Oklahoma State.

1561
01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:03,080
Speaker 1: I think it's pretty cool stuff.

1562
01:14:04,320 --> 01:14:08,800
Speaker 10: And he's rare because even in today's climate, you get

1563
01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:09,599
Speaker 10: run off.

1564
01:14:09,640 --> 01:14:12,360
Speaker 11: From your your your Almo a lot.

1565
01:14:12,720 --> 01:14:15,639
Speaker 6: It happens a lot, It happens a lot, and then

1566
01:14:16,080 --> 01:14:18,160
Speaker 6: where do you go from there? But he's been able

1567
01:14:18,200 --> 01:14:19,719
Speaker 6: to be successful at a place.

1568
01:14:20,000 --> 01:14:22,639
Speaker 10: And I'm going to tell you I had the luxury

1569
01:14:22,640 --> 01:14:25,360
Speaker 10: of going there twice once more than I kind of

1570
01:14:25,360 --> 01:14:25,800
Speaker 10: wanted to.

1571
01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:30,759
Speaker 6: And it's in the middle of nowhere.

1572
01:14:30,840 --> 01:14:34,040
Speaker 10: It's hard to recruit to is my point. And they're

1573
01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:36,880
Speaker 10: in a place like Kansas State. But both because they

1574
01:14:36,920 --> 01:14:38,799
Speaker 10: have good football coaches, are thriving.

1575
01:14:39,200 --> 01:14:42,040
Speaker 6: And we'll be stories in twenty twenty four.

1576
01:14:42,880 --> 01:14:44,840
Speaker 2: All right, Trey, looking for a Saturday night. We'll catch

1577
01:14:44,920 --> 01:14:45,719
Speaker 2: up later in the week.

1578
01:14:46,640 --> 01:14:50,559
Speaker 10: Yes, indeed in Indianapolis. I'll see where you guys want

1579
01:14:50,560 --> 01:14:53,080
Speaker 10: to go dine if I can talk you back into

1580
01:14:53,120 --> 01:14:54,479
Speaker 10: the old spot.

1581
01:14:55,040 --> 01:14:56,880
Speaker 2: Listen. I was on the phone with the Rezi.

1582
01:14:57,080 --> 01:15:00,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, already been working on it, already working on it.

1583
01:15:00,120 --> 01:15:00,599
Speaker 6: This second.

1584
01:15:00,640 --> 01:15:01,400
Speaker 1: We got the new.

1585
01:15:03,040 --> 01:15:08,519
Speaker 2: Hello, okay, Dre. We'll talk later. All right, great stuff

1586
01:15:08,560 --> 01:15:11,640
Speaker 2: as always with our pal on Dre where Mark and

1587
01:15:11,640 --> 01:15:14,240
Speaker 2: I will continue to break down yesterday and what's to

1588
01:15:14,280 --> 01:15:16,040
Speaker 2: come next right here in Texas All Access.

1589
01:15:17,160 --> 01:15:19,280
Speaker 1: Welcome back to this money edition of Texans All Access.

1590
01:15:19,320 --> 01:15:22,559
Speaker 2: I am your host, John Harrison, football analyst, sideline reporter,

1591
01:15:22,680 --> 01:15:26,439
Speaker 2: and one of our new favorite players is Derek Barnett.

1592
01:15:26,520 --> 01:15:28,880
Speaker 2: Came over from the Philadelphia Eagles claimed on waivers. He

1593
01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:32,400
Speaker 2: was released by the Eagles after the trade deadline, so

1594
01:15:32,479 --> 01:15:34,559
Speaker 2: his subject to waivers text to put a claim on him,

1595
01:15:34,600 --> 01:15:38,000
Speaker 2: and thank god they did because he has played lights out,

1596
01:15:38,360 --> 01:15:40,559
Speaker 2: lights out in a big sack.

1597
01:15:40,400 --> 01:15:42,759
Speaker 1: Of Ryan Tannehill. That's where our discussion started.

1598
01:15:42,840 --> 01:15:45,040
Speaker 2: Right here, spears of the backfield lit him.

1599
01:15:45,600 --> 01:15:48,559
Speaker 3: I'm fourth down, four man front Tannehill to throw.

1600
01:15:48,600 --> 01:15:50,200
Speaker 2: Here's pressure Tannehill stacked.

1601
01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:51,400
Speaker 1: He goes down.

1602
01:15:51,520 --> 01:15:57,240
Speaker 2: Derek Barnett brings down the quarterback turnover on downs. Oh,

1603
01:15:57,360 --> 01:15:58,160
Speaker 2: very nice.

1604
01:15:58,439 --> 01:16:02,560
Speaker 3: Will Anderson had a couple Jerry Hughes strip sack Rankins

1605
01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:04,720
Speaker 3: with a scoop and score man. What a day for

1606
01:16:04,800 --> 01:16:08,920
Speaker 3: the Texans d completely dominating the Tennessee Titans, even when

1607
01:16:09,240 --> 01:16:11,360
Speaker 3: Ryan Tannehill got into the game. And I thought that

1608
01:16:11,439 --> 01:16:15,280
Speaker 3: might be big trouble when Tannehill got in, not big trouble,

1609
01:16:15,320 --> 01:16:16,960
Speaker 3: but I thought they could be trouble.

1610
01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:18,599
Speaker 1: Look at the throw he made right before the half.

1611
01:16:18,600 --> 01:16:20,559
Speaker 3: You get back to back sacks that he threatens the

1612
01:16:20,600 --> 01:16:24,479
Speaker 3: needles sideline to DeAndre Hopkins to set up a field goal.

1613
01:16:24,760 --> 01:16:27,759
Speaker 3: I didn't think, okay, this starts the onslaught or anything,

1614
01:16:27,800 --> 01:16:30,240
Speaker 3: but you know, you stick it a touchdown at some

1615
01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:32,839
Speaker 3: point the third quarter there, and all of a sudden, Okay,

1616
01:16:33,040 --> 01:16:35,120
Speaker 3: they're back in the game. And who knows, maybe he

1617
01:16:35,120 --> 01:16:38,880
Speaker 3: gets hot. He seems different. He certainly gets a job

1618
01:16:38,960 --> 01:16:43,120
Speaker 3: next year. But they're different. They It's weird to see

1619
01:16:43,160 --> 01:16:46,280
Speaker 3: how they've been taking apart from the losing streak they

1620
01:16:46,360 --> 01:16:49,600
Speaker 3: had to conclude last year to what has happened this

1621
01:16:49,720 --> 01:16:52,160
Speaker 3: year to them. I know, they always seem to have

1622
01:16:52,479 --> 01:16:53,759
Speaker 3: major injury issues.

1623
01:16:54,240 --> 01:16:55,519
Speaker 1: All yeah, you're there.

1624
01:16:55,640 --> 01:16:57,639
Speaker 2: Even in twenty twenty one when they were the number

1625
01:16:57,640 --> 01:17:00,840
Speaker 2: one seed, they had a ton that was Henry was hurt.

1626
01:17:01,280 --> 01:17:03,200
Speaker 1: They had a ton of ton of issues.

1627
01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:05,800
Speaker 2: Rable ended up being coached the year that year, and

1628
01:17:05,840 --> 01:17:08,320
Speaker 2: then Lamar Jackson went in there and one weekend, oh no,

1629
01:17:08,400 --> 01:17:09,160
Speaker 2: it was Joe Burrow.

1630
01:17:09,280 --> 01:17:11,439
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow went in there, took care of them.

1631
01:17:11,680 --> 01:17:13,599
Speaker 2: In the year before that had the number one seed,

1632
01:17:13,640 --> 01:17:15,960
Speaker 2: and the year before that, Lamar Jackson took care of

1633
01:17:15,960 --> 01:17:16,599
Speaker 2: them at home.

1634
01:17:16,680 --> 01:17:18,400
Speaker 1: That was after the AFC Championship run.

1635
01:17:18,520 --> 01:17:22,040
Speaker 3: It's funny how franchises are and how brand name recognition

1636
01:17:22,240 --> 01:17:25,880
Speaker 3: is so powerful, and the Baltimore Ravens, to me, are

1637
01:17:25,960 --> 01:17:28,760
Speaker 3: a huge example of that. They're playing so well right now.

1638
01:17:29,080 --> 01:17:31,400
Speaker 3: But they'll be the first to tell you none of

1639
01:17:31,400 --> 01:17:33,800
Speaker 3: this matters. I mean, it matters that they got to buy,

1640
01:17:34,240 --> 01:17:36,280
Speaker 3: but none of this matters until they take the field

1641
01:17:36,280 --> 01:17:39,000
Speaker 3: in the postseason and win in the postseason, in the

1642
01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:43,559
Speaker 3: playoffs in advance, because they have only won one playoff

1643
01:17:43,600 --> 01:17:44,840
Speaker 3: game in the last nine years.

1644
01:17:44,960 --> 01:17:45,360
Speaker 1: That's it.

1645
01:17:45,400 --> 01:17:48,759
Speaker 3: The Texans have more playoff victories than the Baltimore Ravens

1646
01:17:48,800 --> 01:17:50,960
Speaker 3: in the last nine years. And the Ravens had the

1647
01:17:51,040 --> 01:17:54,160
Speaker 3: number one seed in twenty nineteen and obviously blew it

1648
01:17:54,240 --> 01:17:57,920
Speaker 3: because they lost to the Tennessee Titans. But that's brand

1649
01:17:58,000 --> 01:18:00,920
Speaker 3: name recognition for you, right, there's some organization.

1650
01:18:01,400 --> 01:18:03,479
Speaker 2: How's that been in the playoffs for that?

1651
01:18:03,840 --> 01:18:04,519
Speaker 1: Not very good?

1652
01:18:04,600 --> 01:18:06,240
Speaker 3: But I give them a ton of credit because they

1653
01:18:06,240 --> 01:18:10,440
Speaker 3: always get there. It's they're like in the last decade plus,

1654
01:18:10,920 --> 01:18:13,439
Speaker 3: they're like the really good version of Pittsburgh. They have

1655
01:18:13,439 --> 01:18:15,439
Speaker 3: a lot of winning seasons, but they've actually won a

1656
01:18:15,479 --> 01:18:17,320
Speaker 3: couple of games, and they won a Super Bowl more

1657
01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:18,640
Speaker 3: recently than the Steelers have.

1658
01:18:19,200 --> 01:18:22,799
Speaker 1: But how about them? Mike Tomlin, another winning season.

1659
01:18:22,840 --> 01:18:24,760
Speaker 3: I was about to say playoff appearance, but for the

1660
01:18:24,800 --> 01:18:26,479
Speaker 3: Steelers to get it, that was one that had me

1661
01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:27,240
Speaker 3: head scratched.

1662
01:18:27,320 --> 01:18:27,640
Speaker 2: Last night.

1663
01:18:27,680 --> 01:18:30,760
Speaker 3: I thought, wait, I thought the Texans and Colts winning

1664
01:18:30,800 --> 01:18:33,720
Speaker 3: would knock the Steelers out and the Jags winning too.

1665
01:18:33,920 --> 01:18:36,760
Speaker 3: But it didn't happen because the Steelers if they get

1666
01:18:36,800 --> 01:18:39,599
Speaker 3: Buffalo to lose and they win.

1667
01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:42,599
Speaker 2: And we win because the Colts, well what about the Colts.

1668
01:18:42,680 --> 01:18:44,760
Speaker 2: The Colts would have time record or Pittsburgh.

1669
01:18:44,600 --> 01:18:47,520
Speaker 3: Oh, you know, they need the Texans and the Dolphins

1670
01:18:47,560 --> 01:18:49,679
Speaker 3: to win, and they need to win and they're in.

1671
01:18:50,320 --> 01:18:51,360
Speaker 2: They're in.

1672
01:18:51,000 --> 01:18:52,599
Speaker 1: There's a chance for Pittsburgh.

1673
01:18:53,280 --> 01:18:55,320
Speaker 3: Look, I don't put it past the Dolphins to bounce

1674
01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:57,679
Speaker 3: back and beat the Bills. It's entirely possible.

1675
01:18:58,120 --> 01:19:02,200
Speaker 2: Florida, absolutely, I mean and and there's a little bit

1676
01:19:02,240 --> 01:19:05,000
Speaker 2: of my worry in this because the Texans have been

1677
01:19:05,920 --> 01:19:09,160
Speaker 2: really good. You know, beat the Broncos. They were really

1678
01:19:09,160 --> 01:19:10,960
Speaker 2: good that day. But they're good enough to beat the Broncos.

1679
01:19:11,479 --> 01:19:13,640
Speaker 2: Not so great against the Jets. Now we're gonna turn

1680
01:19:13,640 --> 01:19:15,880
Speaker 2: around and go in a second road game. Played pretty

1681
01:19:15,920 --> 01:19:19,120
Speaker 2: well against Tennessee all things considered the first time, then

1682
01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:22,920
Speaker 2: got absolutely spanked by the Browns played a complete game yesterday.

1683
01:19:23,240 --> 01:19:25,040
Speaker 3: Okay, did we fall back into that? No, no, no, no,

1684
01:19:25,280 --> 01:19:27,400
Speaker 3: I don't think. I don't think that applies to this week.

1685
01:19:27,439 --> 01:19:29,360
Speaker 3: I don't think there are a couple of difference.

1686
01:19:29,040 --> 01:19:31,320
Speaker 1: Because you're already in the playoffs. I mean, that's the

1687
01:19:31,320 --> 01:19:33,720
Speaker 1: way I'm looking at They know this is a playoff game.

1688
01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:37,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's exactly. If they lose, there's no tomorrow. I

1689
01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:41,759
Speaker 3: think there's there's something about that, And I can't really

1690
01:19:41,960 --> 01:19:46,240
Speaker 3: quantify this, but there's something about the short week that

1691
01:19:46,320 --> 01:19:48,439
Speaker 3: just sort of snaps you in a different kind of reacit.

1692
01:19:48,520 --> 01:19:50,439
Speaker 1: I think so. I think so here you are. Time

1693
01:19:50,560 --> 01:19:51,519
Speaker 1: gets you going that way.

1694
01:19:51,560 --> 01:19:53,519
Speaker 2: Playing Saturday night in front of the nation.

1695
01:19:54,680 --> 01:19:57,120
Speaker 1: Let me talk about this. No primetime games all year.

1696
01:19:57,439 --> 01:20:01,560
Speaker 3: Oh wait, we're gonna be play one that's for everything,

1697
01:20:02,439 --> 01:20:04,040
Speaker 3: in front of the entire world.

1698
01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:05,320
Speaker 1: Can I read you a quote?

1699
01:20:05,400 --> 01:20:05,760
Speaker 6: Do it?

1700
01:20:05,960 --> 01:20:10,280
Speaker 2: Okay? This is from one Coleridge Bernard Stroud the Fourth

1701
01:20:10,640 --> 01:20:11,439
Speaker 2: aka CJ.

1702
01:20:12,840 --> 01:20:13,800
Speaker 1: He said this after the game.

1703
01:20:13,800 --> 01:20:15,960
Speaker 2: I want your thoughts on this because talking about these

1704
01:20:15,960 --> 01:20:20,080
Speaker 2: teams that you think you've got the team right then

1705
01:20:20,160 --> 01:20:21,920
Speaker 2: and you think, well, no, we'll be good in the future.

1706
01:20:22,280 --> 01:20:25,320
Speaker 2: Hit this quote after the game. The time is now.

1707
01:20:25,840 --> 01:20:28,800
Speaker 2: It's not next year or the year after that, it's

1708
01:20:28,920 --> 01:20:33,640
Speaker 2: right now. And I find that fascinating coming from a

1709
01:20:33,680 --> 01:20:36,200
Speaker 2: twenty two year old young man. I could not love

1710
01:20:36,280 --> 01:20:40,120
Speaker 2: him anymore, right, I know, I know, because you think, Okay,

1711
01:20:40,720 --> 01:20:43,280
Speaker 2: we're gonna, we're gonna, we're gonna be big time winners

1712
01:20:43,280 --> 01:20:46,720
Speaker 2: here in due time. He's looking at it saying, no, no, no,

1713
01:20:47,760 --> 01:20:49,720
Speaker 2: you are where your feet are. He's right that win

1714
01:20:49,800 --> 01:20:51,200
Speaker 2: said that the other night to us a few times.

1715
01:20:51,280 --> 01:20:54,240
Speaker 2: You are where your feet are. Be where your feet are,

1716
01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:58,200
Speaker 2: and live in that moment. And I heard him say that.

1717
01:20:58,280 --> 01:21:00,840
Speaker 2: I think Sean and Clint played it after the game

1718
01:21:00,880 --> 01:21:02,439
Speaker 2: and I heard it, or they played it this morning.

1719
01:21:03,200 --> 01:21:04,200
Speaker 1: Sean and Seth played it.

1720
01:21:04,680 --> 01:21:06,760
Speaker 2: I heard that the time is now, it's not next year,

1721
01:21:06,800 --> 01:21:08,120
Speaker 2: that you have to that right now, And I just

1722
01:21:08,160 --> 01:21:12,639
Speaker 2: thought for his veteran teammates to hear that, I think

1723
01:21:13,120 --> 01:21:17,200
Speaker 2: is is perfect because a lot of times you're like, well,

1724
01:21:17,240 --> 01:21:19,679
Speaker 2: we'll win, we'll win in the future. We've got CJ.

1725
01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:21,519
Speaker 2: He'll be here for a while. We'll win in the future.

1726
01:21:21,560 --> 01:21:24,439
Speaker 2: Will's a rookie. We'll win in the future. Like no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

1727
01:21:25,040 --> 01:21:27,599
Speaker 2: we're here, Let's win a damn thing right now.

1728
01:21:27,920 --> 01:21:29,120
Speaker 1: It's funny, you love that approach.

1729
01:21:29,160 --> 01:21:30,600
Speaker 3: It's funny to bring it up that way with the

1730
01:21:30,680 --> 01:21:34,160
Speaker 3: vets because think about the one year contract guys, the

1731
01:21:34,160 --> 01:21:36,439
Speaker 3: guys who aren't sure they're going to be back right exactly,

1732
01:21:36,479 --> 01:21:38,400
Speaker 3: and they might want to be back, You might even

1733
01:21:38,439 --> 01:21:40,160
Speaker 3: want them back, but it's economics.

1734
01:21:40,200 --> 01:21:42,000
Speaker 1: It's whatever you get an offer whatever.

1735
01:21:42,320 --> 01:21:45,080
Speaker 3: They don't know what's going to happen in their careers,

1736
01:21:45,640 --> 01:21:48,479
Speaker 3: so in a way, CJ's doing them a tremendous service.

1737
01:21:48,680 --> 01:21:51,120
Speaker 3: Let's make the most of your time here right no

1738
01:21:51,120 --> 01:21:53,679
Speaker 3: matter how long it is. Maybe it continues, maybe it doesn't,

1739
01:21:53,840 --> 01:21:56,160
Speaker 3: but let's make the most of the moment. Nobody knows

1740
01:21:56,200 --> 01:21:58,360
Speaker 3: what's going to happen in their career, so go for

1741
01:21:58,520 --> 01:22:01,519
Speaker 3: it right now. Just push your chips to the center

1742
01:22:01,600 --> 01:22:04,400
Speaker 3: of the table, go as far as you can and

1743
01:22:04,920 --> 01:22:08,040
Speaker 3: deal with it. I love that approach by him. I

1744
01:22:08,080 --> 01:22:11,160
Speaker 3: love that perspective by him. Do they have the team

1745
01:22:11,200 --> 01:22:12,479
Speaker 3: to do it? They have a team to go on

1746
01:22:12,520 --> 01:22:14,960
Speaker 3: a little run here? Why not maybe a big run?

1747
01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:17,799
Speaker 3: Who the heck knows? Man, Just get into the dance.

1748
01:22:19,160 --> 01:22:22,720
Speaker 3: You don't listen. It's like the NCAA Tournament. Sometimes you

1749
01:22:22,720 --> 01:22:25,760
Speaker 3: look at it, you look at that bracket, or you're

1750
01:22:26,080 --> 01:22:28,320
Speaker 3: a fan of a team. You don't have to beat

1751
01:22:28,439 --> 01:22:30,960
Speaker 3: sixty three other teams right right, You just have to

1752
01:22:30,960 --> 01:22:31,879
Speaker 3: beat the one that's.

1753
01:22:31,720 --> 01:22:32,479
Speaker 1: Right in front of you.

1754
01:22:32,960 --> 01:22:35,240
Speaker 3: So right now, all you gotta do is beat the Colts.

1755
01:22:35,280 --> 01:22:36,880
Speaker 3: We'll worry about next week after that.

1756
01:22:36,920 --> 01:22:39,160
Speaker 2: Absolutely, deal with it. That's exactly the way to look

1757
01:22:39,200 --> 01:22:41,400
Speaker 2: at it. It is it's now the NCAA tournament. And

1758
01:22:41,400 --> 01:22:43,680
Speaker 2: what do we always say about the NCAA tournament.

1759
01:22:43,560 --> 01:22:44,640
Speaker 1: Surviving matchups?

1760
01:22:44,960 --> 01:22:49,960
Speaker 2: Exactly, Surviving advance and matchups matter. You might get you

1761
01:22:50,040 --> 01:22:52,920
Speaker 2: might be the seventh seed, but the two seed over

1762
01:22:52,960 --> 01:22:54,400
Speaker 2: there might be banged up.

1763
01:22:55,040 --> 01:22:56,519
Speaker 1: The Texans aren't gonna play Miami.

1764
01:22:57,240 --> 01:23:02,080
Speaker 2: It can't happen mathematically because if Miami ends up and

1765
01:23:03,080 --> 01:23:07,320
Speaker 2: knocks out Pittsburgh because Pittsburgh loses the Baltimore, then Buffalo

1766
01:23:07,320 --> 01:23:09,479
Speaker 2: gets in. Well, Buffalo would be the seventh seed, they

1767
01:23:09,479 --> 01:23:10,479
Speaker 2: would go back to Miami.

1768
01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:11,680
Speaker 1: You would end up going to Kansas City.

1769
01:23:11,760 --> 01:23:14,040
Speaker 2: So only two places you can go are Kansas City

1770
01:23:14,040 --> 01:23:18,040
Speaker 2: and Buffalo. Win Division play Cleveland here. Those three things

1771
01:23:18,080 --> 01:23:20,080
Speaker 2: are pretty set. It's like you don't have to talk.

1772
01:23:20,120 --> 01:23:21,880
Speaker 2: You don't have to talk too much about that. But

1773
01:23:22,000 --> 01:23:25,160
Speaker 2: if you were to get Miami what happened yesterday, Bradley

1774
01:23:25,200 --> 01:23:28,839
Speaker 2: Chubb more than likely out for the year, maybe tours

1775
01:23:28,880 --> 01:23:31,800
Speaker 2: acl that's on top of Jalen Phillips already being out,

1776
01:23:31,920 --> 01:23:34,360
Speaker 2: and Tyreek Hill's not healthy. Tyreek Hill's not healthy. Wat

1777
01:23:34,560 --> 01:23:37,960
Speaker 2: didn't play, and Wattle didn't play. Xavier and Howard had

1778
01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:39,639
Speaker 2: a foot of shoe so he went out of the game.

1779
01:23:40,680 --> 01:23:44,080
Speaker 2: So the point being you you're catching a team at

1780
01:23:44,120 --> 01:23:45,720
Speaker 2: the right time. I think about the Colts when they

1781
01:23:45,720 --> 01:23:47,479
Speaker 2: came here for that playoff game in twenty eighteen.

1782
01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:51,240
Speaker 1: Hop is terribly banged up. He has to go out

1783
01:23:51,240 --> 01:23:51,920
Speaker 1: of that game.

1784
01:23:53,200 --> 01:23:55,559
Speaker 2: And so you've got really that that was your offense

1785
01:23:55,600 --> 01:23:57,240
Speaker 2: at twenty eighteen was throwing the ball to Hop as

1786
01:23:57,320 --> 01:23:58,520
Speaker 2: much as you possibly.

1787
01:23:58,080 --> 01:24:00,000
Speaker 1: Could at home. And you can't do anything.

1788
01:24:00,120 --> 01:24:03,960
Speaker 2: You can't do anything. But you caught the Colts earlier

1789
01:24:03,960 --> 01:24:06,759
Speaker 2: in the year. You scored thirty seven on them. Yeah,

1790
01:24:06,800 --> 01:24:08,720
Speaker 2: but you just caught them at the wrong You caught

1791
01:24:08,760 --> 01:24:09,559
Speaker 2: them at the wrong time.

1792
01:24:09,560 --> 01:24:10,439
Speaker 1: They were a little bit hot.

1793
01:24:10,560 --> 01:24:14,800
Speaker 2: Those things happened, you know, in the playoffs, and we're

1794
01:24:14,800 --> 01:24:15,760
Speaker 2: in the playoffs right now.

1795
01:24:15,800 --> 01:24:18,920
Speaker 3: Listen, that twenty eighteen game, which means nothing to any

1796
01:24:18,920 --> 01:24:21,080
Speaker 3: of these players, but it means something to me. I

1797
01:24:21,080 --> 01:24:24,480
Speaker 3: feel like Ryan Fitzpatrick before the Buffalo game in twenty fourteen.

1798
01:24:24,320 --> 01:24:27,000
Speaker 2: This made something to me. I'm gonna do the pregame speech, Johnny,

1799
01:24:27,000 --> 01:24:28,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get in that huddle.

1800
01:24:28,160 --> 01:24:29,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this made something to me.

1801
01:24:30,120 --> 01:24:33,240
Speaker 3: In twenty eighteen, they came into our building. T Y

1802
01:24:33,360 --> 01:24:35,920
Speaker 3: Hilton wore a clown mask, and I was sure the

1803
01:24:35,960 --> 01:24:38,040
Speaker 3: Texans are gonna win because of that and a bunch

1804
01:24:38,040 --> 01:24:38,639
Speaker 3: of other things.

1805
01:24:38,720 --> 01:24:39,439
Speaker 2: And they did it.

1806
01:24:39,760 --> 01:24:43,120
Speaker 3: So now it's time for revenge beating at their place.

1807
01:24:43,520 --> 01:24:47,879
Speaker 3: Knock them out and go on and advance into the postseason. Yep,

1808
01:24:48,040 --> 01:24:51,200
Speaker 3: I just I'm so They'll be looking at me like

1809
01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:53,080
Speaker 3: what t Y Hilton, what clown mask?

1810
01:24:53,120 --> 01:24:54,240
Speaker 1: What?

1811
01:24:54,240 --> 01:24:54,479
Speaker 2: What?

1812
01:24:54,920 --> 01:24:55,080
Speaker 4: Well?

1813
01:24:55,439 --> 01:24:57,760
Speaker 2: A lot of these guys probably know him just from look.

1814
01:24:57,760 --> 01:24:59,400
Speaker 2: There are some grizzled vets in there. They probably played

1815
01:24:59,400 --> 01:25:02,280
Speaker 2: against y. Yeah, at some point, not with the Texans.

1816
01:25:02,880 --> 01:25:06,600
Speaker 3: All the nuances of the history with this awful horseshoe,

1817
01:25:07,040 --> 01:25:07,400
Speaker 3: they don't.

1818
01:25:07,439 --> 01:25:11,800
Speaker 2: I know how I feel The thing about this at

1819
01:25:11,800 --> 01:25:15,360
Speaker 2: this point that that bothers me a little bit is

1820
01:25:15,400 --> 01:25:19,960
Speaker 2: the fact that guys that have been here the longest,

1821
01:25:20,280 --> 01:25:22,799
Speaker 2: the the you know, week seeing Kymie. I mean they've

1822
01:25:22,800 --> 01:25:27,400
Speaker 2: been playing. But John Gernnard twenty twenty is banged up

1823
01:25:27,439 --> 01:25:31,000
Speaker 2: right now. Titus has already been put an I ruh,

1824
01:25:31,360 --> 01:25:35,200
Speaker 2: Laramie Tunsel, you don't have any idea yet, what's going

1825
01:25:35,280 --> 01:25:35,920
Speaker 2: to happen.

1826
01:25:35,720 --> 01:25:38,519
Speaker 3: What else happened. I just I need to know about

1827
01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:42,479
Speaker 3: Bobby Trees and No Brown. Yeah, that's that's trouble. I

1828
01:25:42,520 --> 01:25:45,880
Speaker 3: think both were hip issues. That's trucause we've had it

1829
01:25:45,920 --> 01:25:49,400
Speaker 3: earlier in the season where either or with those Okay, okay,

1830
01:25:49,960 --> 01:25:52,760
Speaker 3: if both are out now you have issues, you started

1831
01:25:52,880 --> 01:25:53,519
Speaker 3: going to play a lot.

1832
01:25:53,680 --> 01:25:56,439
Speaker 2: You start seeing Robert yesterday really kind of find his

1833
01:25:56,479 --> 01:25:56,960
Speaker 2: game again.

1834
01:25:57,240 --> 01:26:01,000
Speaker 3: Croud is back like Bobby, Yeah, absolutely.

1835
01:26:01,040 --> 01:26:02,800
Speaker 2: I mean who doesn't like Bobby Trees? I mean Trees

1836
01:26:02,840 --> 01:26:06,920
Speaker 2: at Christmas time a holiday season, of course. But I

1837
01:26:06,960 --> 01:26:09,639
Speaker 2: bring it up because last time he played a playoff game. Now,

1838
01:26:09,640 --> 01:26:12,000
Speaker 2: Titus didn't play because Titus was banged up in twenty nineteen.

1839
01:26:12,520 --> 01:26:15,360
Speaker 2: But you'll Laramie play. I mean, Larry's been through it.

1840
01:26:15,520 --> 01:26:17,759
Speaker 2: I mean the trade for him all that, and Laramie

1841
01:26:17,800 --> 01:26:19,960
Speaker 2: has been put through You just want to see him

1842
01:26:19,960 --> 01:26:21,599
Speaker 2: playing the game and be in that game, and want

1843
01:26:21,600 --> 01:26:23,599
Speaker 2: Grenard to be in that game. All they've gone through

1844
01:26:23,640 --> 01:26:26,360
Speaker 2: to play in this important game for this franchise. I

1845
01:26:26,439 --> 01:26:28,040
Speaker 2: just want it for I want it for them to

1846
01:26:28,040 --> 01:26:28,920
Speaker 2: be able to play in that game.

1847
01:26:28,960 --> 01:26:31,280
Speaker 3: And that's that's part of the short week problem too,

1848
01:26:31,360 --> 01:26:34,439
Speaker 3: that I don't get that extra day of healing.

1849
01:26:34,200 --> 01:26:35,160
Speaker 1: And that hurt a little bit.

1850
01:26:35,280 --> 01:26:38,320
Speaker 2: But hopefully they'll have it ready to go for Saturday,

1851

Speaker 2: Saturday evening if you've missed it, seven fifteen local time.

1867
01:27:24,680 --> 01:27:27,760
Speaker 2: Football analyst Sideline reported his final segment. I told a

1868
01:27:27,760 --> 01:27:30,800
Speaker 2: little bit of a story about Brevin Jordan, which something

1869
01:27:30,800 --> 01:27:31,479
Speaker 2: I thought was really.

1870
01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:32,439
Speaker 1: Really interesting to happen.

1871
01:27:32,520 --> 01:27:34,479
Speaker 2: And I had a chance to catch up with Deekon

1872
01:27:34,560 --> 01:27:37,320
Speaker 2: Ryans right after the game his postgame interview.

1873
01:27:37,400 --> 01:27:38,080
Speaker 1: Let's roll it.

1874
01:27:38,479 --> 01:27:40,720
Speaker 2: Here's a second out of nineteen for the Titans at

1875
01:27:40,720 --> 01:27:42,200
Speaker 2: the Houston forty five yard line.

1876
01:27:42,200 --> 01:27:46,280
Speaker 3: Tannehill shotgun one back, two receivers each side. Tannehill to's

1877
01:27:46,280 --> 01:27:47,320
Speaker 3: throw more pressure on.

1878
01:27:47,280 --> 01:27:50,960
Speaker 2: The way and Will Anderson gets it again back till back.

1879
01:27:51,040 --> 01:27:59,000
Speaker 3: Sacks Will Anderson Junior. What a rookie campaign he returns,

1880
01:27:59,200 --> 01:28:01,439
Speaker 3: He sacks the Q back. He doesn't even play that

1881
01:28:01,600 --> 01:28:06,840
Speaker 3: much and has great numbers. We're talking complete game, maybe

1882
01:28:06,880 --> 01:28:10,479
Speaker 3: complete two game numbers. And got to hope that he

1883
01:28:10,560 --> 01:28:13,519
Speaker 3: feels really great going into Saturday night as well. Yeah,

1884
01:28:13,600 --> 01:28:16,040
Speaker 3: the injury bug biting again yesterday where you're just talking

1885
01:28:16,040 --> 01:28:19,040
Speaker 3: about it before the break, But they'll deal with it

1886
01:28:19,120 --> 01:28:20,160
Speaker 3: like they have all year long.

1887
01:28:20,240 --> 01:28:21,400
Speaker 1: You have the quarterback, you.

1888
01:28:21,320 --> 01:28:25,120
Speaker 3: Have a running game now that is not exactly piling

1889
01:28:25,240 --> 01:28:28,519
Speaker 3: up nineteen sixty six Green Bay Packer yardage. No, but

1890
01:28:29,120 --> 01:28:33,320
Speaker 3: you've got something here that you can hang your hat on, right, Johnny,

1891
01:28:33,439 --> 01:28:37,400
Speaker 3: You've got Devin Singletary running the ball. Pierce looked better yesterday,

1892
01:28:37,439 --> 01:28:41,000
Speaker 3: Pierce returning some kicks. Let's get a little identity going

1893
01:28:41,080 --> 01:28:44,000
Speaker 3: here and get everybody in their appropriate roles. I don't

1894
01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:46,120
Speaker 3: know what beck is going to do going into next week,

1895
01:28:46,360 --> 01:28:49,040
Speaker 3: but I liked Brevin Jordan playing some h back full back.

1896
01:28:49,280 --> 01:28:52,719
Speaker 3: Let's do that. That looked really good for him yesterday.

1897
01:28:52,720 --> 01:28:54,759
Speaker 3: And caught that touchdown that you heard in the promo

1898
01:28:54,840 --> 01:28:58,240
Speaker 3: and a highlight earlier. So it's not like everything's firing

1899
01:28:58,800 --> 01:29:02,200
Speaker 3: full go because you have a lot of people hurt.

1900
01:29:02,280 --> 01:29:04,800
Speaker 3: But you've got something going up to Indy that you

1901
01:29:04,840 --> 01:29:08,719
Speaker 3: can rely on and take your shots.

1902
01:29:08,960 --> 01:29:10,400
Speaker 1: So's my quick story.

1903
01:29:10,760 --> 01:29:13,400
Speaker 2: Remember on the first drive, the game drove down and

1904
01:29:13,439 --> 01:29:15,880
Speaker 2: there was a play where CJ actually extended the play

1905
01:29:15,920 --> 01:29:16,679
Speaker 2: for a lot longer.

1906
01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:18,760
Speaker 1: We're all throw them away a hit.

1907
01:29:19,160 --> 01:29:23,680
Speaker 2: When the play was over, CJ walked towards the receivers

1908
01:29:23,720 --> 01:29:27,160
Speaker 2: and was like talking to somebody, And I remember you

1909
01:29:27,160 --> 01:29:28,960
Speaker 2: guys were actually talking about there in the broadcast, and

1910
01:29:29,000 --> 01:29:30,720
Speaker 2: I could see it. I thought he was talking to

1911
01:29:30,720 --> 01:29:32,519
Speaker 2: Brevin Jordan, but I could understand why.

1912
01:29:32,960 --> 01:29:33,519
Speaker 1: I didn't get it.

1913
01:29:33,520 --> 01:29:34,679
Speaker 2: I was like, why is he not going to brev

1914
01:29:35,840 --> 01:29:37,759
Speaker 2: When Brevin scored on that touchdown play?

1915
01:29:38,439 --> 01:29:39,880
Speaker 1: It was the same exact play.

1916
01:29:40,800 --> 01:29:43,679
Speaker 2: But Brevin told me the locker room, he's like, after

1917
01:29:44,200 --> 01:29:45,920
Speaker 2: the first play, he said, CJ came and talked to me.

1918
01:29:45,960 --> 01:29:47,960
Speaker 2: He said, trust it. Go in the flat, run the slide,

1919
01:29:48,040 --> 01:29:51,439
Speaker 2: run the run the route, don't worry about blocking, go

1920
01:29:51,520 --> 01:29:55,320
Speaker 2: be an extra receiver. So second quarter, what's he do?

1921
01:29:55,800 --> 01:29:58,479
Speaker 2: He runs a little slide route, he's wide open, turns

1922
01:29:58,520 --> 01:30:00,160
Speaker 2: into a touchdown, and I thought it was It was

1923
01:30:00,200 --> 01:30:02,800
Speaker 2: pretty interesting because I couldn't figure out who CJ was

1924
01:30:02,840 --> 01:30:05,559
Speaker 2: talking to. And I was like, I think he's talking

1925
01:30:05,560 --> 01:30:08,439
Speaker 2: to Brevian. But why I got the answer once I

1926
01:30:08,479 --> 01:30:10,320
Speaker 2: talked to Brevin after the game. That's what CJ was

1927
01:30:10,320 --> 01:30:12,439
Speaker 2: telling him, like, hey, man, run the slide. Because there

1928
01:30:12,439 --> 01:30:14,400
Speaker 2: were two receivers on that side and it's supposed to

1929
01:30:14,439 --> 01:30:15,479
Speaker 2: be a three level concept.

1930
01:30:16,360 --> 01:30:17,840
Speaker 1: He wasn't talking to either one of those two. He

1931
01:30:17,880 --> 01:30:19,360
Speaker 1: was talking to Brevan. He's like, Brev, you go on

1932
01:30:19,360 --> 01:30:19,679
Speaker 1: the flat.

1933
01:30:19,880 --> 01:30:22,280
Speaker 2: I got you, you can make this play and he did,

1934
01:30:22,400 --> 01:30:25,040
Speaker 2: got in the end zone and I told Brevin afterwards,

1935
01:30:25,120 --> 01:30:26,439
Speaker 2: was like, yeah, man, you didn't run out of bounds

1936
01:30:26,479 --> 01:30:26,720
Speaker 2: this time.

1937
01:30:26,760 --> 01:30:27,599
Speaker 1: It was kind of nice.

1938
01:30:27,880 --> 01:30:29,720
Speaker 3: Was it a year ago on New Year's Eve? Where

1939
01:30:29,720 --> 01:30:33,880
Speaker 3: I'm watching CJ. Stroud torch Georgia but exactly close loss?

1940
01:30:33,920 --> 01:30:36,680
Speaker 3: One year ago and now here he is try to

1941
01:30:36,720 --> 01:30:40,280
Speaker 3: take his team to the Promised Land a first winning season.

1942
01:30:40,760 --> 01:30:43,719
Speaker 3: He gets them there for the first time in four years.

1943
01:30:44,360 --> 01:30:44,759
Speaker 1: Awesome.

1944
01:30:44,800 --> 01:30:48,120
Speaker 3: All right, let's get to your conversation with Demico Ryans

1945
01:30:48,240 --> 01:30:49,280
Speaker 3: right after the game.

1946
01:30:49,360 --> 01:30:53,479
Speaker 2: A quickie, but a good one. All right, Coach, There's

1947
01:30:53,520 --> 01:30:55,599
Speaker 2: so many places to start, but I gotta start with.

1948
01:30:55,600 --> 01:30:57,679
Speaker 1: This A level one to ten.

1949
01:30:57,760 --> 01:30:59,920
Speaker 2: What was your level of frustration the fact that you're

1950
01:31:00,040 --> 01:31:03,839
Speaker 2: defense had not scored a touchdown up until week seventeen.

1951
01:31:04,080 --> 01:31:06,639
Speaker 7: Sure, man, it was about a ten, for sure.

1952
01:31:08,320 --> 01:31:11,439
Speaker 12: One thing is coach Dino vas So, he always does

1953
01:31:11,479 --> 01:31:13,400
Speaker 12: a ball meeting and we're talking about the ball and

1954
01:31:13,720 --> 01:31:15,479
Speaker 12: it was a couple of weeks ago he put up

1955
01:31:15,520 --> 01:31:18,639
Speaker 12: a stat where we were like one of four teams

1956
01:31:18,720 --> 01:31:21,200
Speaker 12: in the league who hadn't scored a defensive touchdown, so

1957
01:31:21,240 --> 01:31:23,679
Speaker 12: I was you know, there's a little jealousy there.

1958
01:31:23,800 --> 01:31:25,240
Speaker 7: You want to be on the right side of that.

1959
01:31:25,840 --> 01:31:26,040
Speaker 4: Man.

1960
01:31:26,120 --> 01:31:27,800
Speaker 7: It came at the right time when we needed it

1961
01:31:27,880 --> 01:31:28,479
Speaker 7: most today.

1962
01:31:28,640 --> 01:31:31,679
Speaker 12: I mean, Jerry Hughes, Sheldon Rank and stepping up making

1963
01:31:31,680 --> 01:31:32,960
Speaker 12: a big time play for us.

1964
01:31:33,400 --> 01:31:34,799
Speaker 7: Just excited for those guys.

1965
01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:39,080
Speaker 1: Your pass rush was again, you know, relentless.

1966
01:31:39,240 --> 01:31:41,160
Speaker 2: I mean that's thirteen sacks in two games in the

1967
01:31:41,240 --> 01:31:43,880
Speaker 2: last three weeks against those guys. What really was working

1968
01:31:44,160 --> 01:31:46,639
Speaker 2: for you up front? Didn't seem like your blitzed a lot.

1969
01:31:46,680 --> 01:31:48,479
Speaker 2: It was a lot of the front four getting done.

1970
01:31:48,600 --> 01:31:49,519
Speaker 2: Is that the way it went for you?

1971
01:31:49,720 --> 01:31:50,760
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's how it went for me.

1972
01:31:50,800 --> 01:31:53,000
Speaker 12: And I really, you know, called the game based on

1973
01:31:53,000 --> 01:31:55,559
Speaker 12: how the how our defense line is playing. And when

1974
01:31:55,560 --> 01:31:58,040
Speaker 12: I've seen the way they were relentless, the way they

1975
01:31:58,040 --> 01:31:59,800
Speaker 12: were hunting up front, I was like, I don't need

1976
01:31:59,840 --> 01:32:02,160
Speaker 12: to all much pressure. Allowed these guys to just get

1977
01:32:02,200 --> 01:32:04,400
Speaker 12: after it, and it was I mean, guy, I think

1978
01:32:04,520 --> 01:32:07,360
Speaker 12: no matter who was in there, everybody showed up, Everybody

1979
01:32:07,720 --> 01:32:11,120
Speaker 12: did their job, played together, and we truly affected the quarterback.

1980
01:32:11,160 --> 01:32:12,320
Speaker 7: And that's how you win games.

1981
01:32:12,800 --> 01:32:12,960
Speaker 6: I know.

1982
01:32:13,080 --> 01:32:14,320
Speaker 1: The touchdown was fantastic.

1983
01:32:14,920 --> 01:32:19,360
Speaker 2: But seven stops inside the seven yard line on that

1984
01:32:19,439 --> 01:32:22,360
Speaker 2: goal line stand because you stop them on third down,

1985
01:32:22,360 --> 01:32:23,600
Speaker 2: but then they get the penalty and then they go

1986
01:32:23,640 --> 01:32:25,960
Speaker 2: for the fourth thousand seven stops. That's one of the

1987
01:32:26,000 --> 01:32:27,800
Speaker 2: best goal line stands I've ever seen, Coach, and it

1988
01:32:27,880 --> 01:32:29,840
Speaker 2: just felt like everything you wanted to do on that

1989
01:32:29,920 --> 01:32:32,280
Speaker 2: drive you did. You were physical, you match routes, well,

1990
01:32:32,400 --> 01:32:34,080
Speaker 2: you got pressure that stand.

1991
01:32:34,080 --> 01:32:35,520
Speaker 1: How did you see it from your sideline?

1992
01:32:35,560 --> 01:32:35,800
Speaker 6: Oh?

1993
01:32:35,840 --> 01:32:38,960
Speaker 12: Man, it was There was no wavering right, there was

1994
01:32:39,040 --> 01:32:41,519
Speaker 12: no worry from my standing with our guys. They were

1995
01:32:41,560 --> 01:32:44,400
Speaker 12: ready for that moment, right. We we go through red

1996
01:32:44,479 --> 01:32:47,720
Speaker 12: zone on Fridays time at the time again and and

1997
01:32:47,800 --> 01:32:49,800
Speaker 12: we put them in those positions a lot, and they

1998
01:32:49,840 --> 01:32:52,640
Speaker 12: showed up and the guys executed right and that was

1999
01:32:52,640 --> 01:32:55,960
Speaker 12: beautiful to see, Like no matter what happened, like whatever

2000
01:32:56,000 --> 01:32:58,479
Speaker 12: play they threw at us, you felt that confidence from

2001
01:32:58,520 --> 01:33:00,679
Speaker 12: our entire group. They were ready for where they play

2002
01:33:00,760 --> 01:33:02,920
Speaker 12: together as outstanding they stop by our guys.

2003
01:33:03,120 --> 01:33:05,519
Speaker 2: Okay, Coach, the regular season is over. I know they

2004
01:33:05,560 --> 01:33:07,240
Speaker 2: might say it's a Week eight team, but the regular

2005
01:33:07,280 --> 01:33:09,960
Speaker 2: season is over because of where you put this team

2006
01:33:10,240 --> 01:33:13,200
Speaker 2: nine and seven Texas ninety seven Colts winners, gonna get

2007
01:33:13,160 --> 01:33:16,240
Speaker 2: into the playoffs. First of all, me even saying those

2008
01:33:16,360 --> 01:33:19,439
Speaker 2: words one year after what we went through last year

2009

2025
01:33:58,479 --> 01:34:00,519
Speaker 2: had a good flow, good rhythm. You see the way

2026
01:34:00,520 --> 01:34:01,680
Speaker 2: that he played in the offense.

2027
01:34:01,439 --> 01:34:03,720
Speaker 7: Play Yeah, see it played clean football, right.

2028
01:34:03,760 --> 01:34:06,240

2029
01:34:06,240 --> 01:34:09,080

2030
01:34:09,080 --> 01:34:11,599

2035
01:34:22,680 --> 01:34:26,680
