1
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 1: The crowd goes home happy again from NRG Stadium. Back

2
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:11,040
Speaker 1: to back at home for the Houston Texans.

3
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:12,040
Speaker 2: They defeat New.

4
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 1: Orleans twenty to thirteen and the record is now three

5
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:17,480
Speaker 1: and three on the season.

6
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:17,919
Speaker 3: C J.

7
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:21,960
Speaker 1: Stroud with two touchdown passes. Singletary runs it for fifty

8
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,600
Speaker 1: eight yards. The team runs for one twenty today and

9
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: gets the victory over New Orleans.

10
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 2: Andre. What do you have in the pass rush report?

11
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 3: Yeap our AHB sack Report. The Texans had two sects

12
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 3: in today's game. Sheldon rankings. He had one. Jonathan Grenard

13
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 3: and MALIEK. Collins sheared one or a half sack, bringing

14
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 3: the total to two. As part of Sacks for Hunger,

15
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 3: AGB will donate one thousand dollars to the Houston Food

16
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 3: Bank every time the Texans sacked the quarterback. The HB

17
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 3: Sick Attack brought to you by AGB, the official tailgate

18
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,599
Speaker 3: headquarters of You're Houston Texans, All right.

19
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 2: Blake Cashman was all over the place today, Dre.

20
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 1: You talked about if this was your guy, fifteen tackles

21
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 1: career best for him, two TFLs, and it's not like

22
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 1: he hasn't showed up before. He had the pick against

23
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 1: Jacksonville a few weeks ago, two pass breakups.

24
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 2: Big day for him and a big day for the defense.

25
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: Really, holding the Saints to thirteen points is a big accomplishment.

26
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 3: To use the word big alone, it really is because

27
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 3: of all the firepower that the Saints have and to

28
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 3: keep him in check, keep the constant pressure on Derek

29
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 3: Carr throughout most of his game. I thought the rush

30
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 3: defense as well. When you look at Kamara being held

31
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,679
Speaker 3: to just sixty eight yards or so on nineteen carries,

32
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 3: that was phenomenal. And I thought that was the main

33
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 3: key coming into today's game, that they would have to

34
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 3: get a handle on him, keep him in check. And

35
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 3: they didn't let him get going.

36
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: They didn't let him get it going. And Kamara had

37
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: seven catches thirty six yards. If you told me that

38
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:51,919
Speaker 1: before the game, I would think, all right, that sounds

39
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 1: like a win. Did they move the ball well enough?

40
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: Though the Texans they did to get the twenty points.

41
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: Your thoughts on the offense though, and missed opportunity is

42
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 1: what they need to work on to get better, because

43
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 1: you know, this is one of the things to Miko

44
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 1: Rans is going to be talking about during the buy

45
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: got to be even better on offense. Can't rely on

46
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 1: thirteen points surrendered each and every week.

47
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's going to be the first thing I think

48
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 3: he's asked about in the press conference's red zone scoring.

49
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,360
Speaker 3: And so when you get down there, and especially you

50
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 3: get it inside the five yard line, you're looking to

51
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 3: pound it in or figure out a way to get

52
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,359
Speaker 3: the ball into the end zone, and on a couple

53
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 3: of occasions they weren't able to do it. That will

54
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 3: be the first question that he's fielding today and one

55
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,640
Speaker 3: of the first things that they go to work this

56
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 3: week and working on his red zone score.

57
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 1: But what a performance overall, twenty to thirteen. They defeat

58
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 1: a hot Saints team that was coming in off the

59
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: blowout over in New England, a lot of confidence coming in.

60
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 3: I don't remember a game in recent history. I mean,

61
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 3: there's been some wins, but that I was this engaged

62
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 3: and excited and all the way through for sixty minutes. Yeah,

63
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 3: for sixty minutes of the entire football game, where you

64
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 3: were sitting on the edge of your seat. When the

65
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 3: Saints got the ball back and they hit a couple

66
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 3: of big plays, and then all of a sudden, the

67
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 3: defense started to rise up. It was an entertaining game

68
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 3: and fun to be a part of.

69
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: Absolutely the pressure, the tension amazing, and they make the

70
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 1: big plays at the end on d when they had

71
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 1: to and a play on offense when they had to

72
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,799
Speaker 1: kill the clock and the threat for good and get

73
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 1: out of here with their third victory of the season.

74
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 2: The reliant power player of the game.

75
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,119
Speaker 1: Proud to be the official energy provider of the Houston Texans.

76
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 2: Reliant.

77
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 1: Well, you could make the case for a lot of players,

78
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 1: a featured player, certainly Steven Nelson. Steven Nelson had an

79
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 1: interception on that fourth downstop late in the game, his

80
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 1: third pick of the year. Texans victorious twenty to thirteen,

81
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: and we joined John Harris in the locker room with

82
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 1: the farmer.

83
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 4: All right, man, it's a victorious and a happy locker

84
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 4: room standing.

85
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 2: Next to Steve Nelson got your third pick.

86
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: Yes, Steve, I don't know what to say about this

87
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 1: defense today.

88
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 2: You guys were all one. You had great player throughout.

89
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 2: What was the key to keeping them out of the end.

90
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 2: So the number of times you.

91
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 4: Get man just relentless, being relentless man, and you know,

92
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 4: just you know, just trying to you know, stop that

93
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 4: air raids as much as possible, you know, and be

94
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 4: on top of our keys, man, and uh, you know,

95
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 4: just fight to the end as you Sorry, you came

96
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 4: all the way down down to the end. I don't

97
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 4: love comparing years, but this is a game I think

98
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 4: in prior year, Steven, you don't.

99
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 2: Win, but you want it today.

100
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 4: Was there something special about this team where today that

101
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 4: you guys end up getting w that's the hard work

102
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 4: we put in man, throughout the week, throughout this offseason.

103
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 3: Man.

104
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 4: Uh, you know, to be able to persevere and and

105
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 4: fight through adversity. Uh, we already put the work in

106
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:41,719
Speaker 4: for it. So when it happened, you know, it's not

107
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 4: not a big deal.

108
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 2: You get the win going into the five. I don't

109
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 2: know if you guys were thinking about that, but does

110
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 2: that make.

111
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: The buy that much sweeter that you get to w

112
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 1: You're sitting at three and three going into it?

113
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 4: Absolutely? Man, you know you don't nobody wants to go

114
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:56,919
Speaker 4: to the buy. You know, think with that with that

115
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 4: loss on your mind, and it doesn't feel better as good.

116
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 4: So you know, obviously with the wins three and three,

117
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,039
Speaker 4: you know we got a lot to improve on. And

118
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 4: you know it feels good.

119
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 2: Steven, congratulations man, thanks you for time. I'm sorry, thank you,

120
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 2: thank you.

121
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: All right, Steven now said you gotta love postgame interviews

122
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: with the sound just thumping in the back.

123
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 2: Happy locker room.

124
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,239
Speaker 1: You said it, Dred, there's nothing like an NFL winning

125
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: locker room.

126
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,359
Speaker 2: What about the buy though here, Dre? How do the

127
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 2: players handle it?

128
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 1: You want to keep momentum going, but they really do

129
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: need arrest, especially so many young guys on the team.

130
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,840
Speaker 3: It's gonna be funny wh when they come back from

131
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 3: the bye fans may not recognize this team because they're

132
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 3: gonna get so many players back back into the lineup

133
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:41,359
Speaker 3: as if it were the start of the season.

134
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 2: So I think it's coming at the right time as well.

135
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 3: You kind of get to do some things differently, installs

136
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 3: in installs in terms of offense, newer stuff to put

137
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 3: in as well. You're gonna tinker with the defense a

138
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 3: little bit, move some guys around, and all that usually

139
00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 3: happens during the bye week.

140
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: Only three penalties on the board for the Texans, two

141
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:05,840
Speaker 1: sacks for the Houston Texans.

142
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 2: CJ.

143
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 1: Stroud gets sacked for the first time in a long time,

144
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 1: when three consecutive games without giving up a sack this

145
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 1: Houston team did. That was a franchise record. But today

146
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,359
Speaker 1: they got to him. They also picked them off for

147
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 1: the first time in his career.

148
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,919
Speaker 2: But CJ. Threws throws two touchdown passes.

149
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 1: Texans get the victory on an outstanding defensive day, twenty

150
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: to thirteen over New Orleans three and three. The record

151
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,720
Speaker 1: and Carolina next in two weeks by week next week,

152
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 1: then the Panthers in Charlotte. Prime Sports Tale of the Tape.

155
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 1: Carolina played the Dolphins today and they were at fourteen

156
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,719
Speaker 1: nothing at one point. Bryce Young one touchdown, no picks,

157
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: Adam thieland eleven catches, one hundred and fifteen yards. Cuba

158
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 1: Hubbard goes for eighty eight yards four and a half

159
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 1: per carry. They got our old buddy Kamu grouge Hill

160
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 1: on that defense. Obviously, the Dolphins tough to contain forty

00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 1: two to twenty one the final today, but the Panthers

162
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 1: have players and it's the NFL. They want a fourteen

163
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 1: nothing of Miami. You gotta be at your best if

164
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 1: you want to win on the roads.

165
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 2: There's no doubt about it.

166
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 3: And there's a reason that we yelled at saying any

167
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,679
Speaker 3: given Sunday because anybody can get anyone on any given

168
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 3: Sunday if you especially if you take them lightly, or

169
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 3: you have injuries or all the things that factor into

170
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 3: two football games. But yeah, that's a team, especially at home,

171
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 3: as tricky they're looking to they're looking at us in

172
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 3: terms of they're gonna get their first win in a

173
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 3: couple of weeks. That's exactly what they're thinking. And so

174
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 3: you can't allow that to happen. Cannot allow it to happen.

175
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 3: There will be a lot of attention on CJ. Stroud

176
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 3: versus Bryce Young, but it's the Texans and the Panthers

177
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 3: and it'll take place in Charlotte in two weeks. Cannot

178
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 3: wait for the next Texans game as Houston goes to

179
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 3: three and three once again. The final score from NRG

180
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 3: Stadium on Crucial Catch Sunday, the Houston Texans twenty the.

181
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 2: New Orleans Saints thirteen. This is Texans Radio
