Unfortunately, the team will be without one of 18 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 1: their captains in this home opener. We learned yesterday that 19 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 1: safety Justin Simmons was placed on injured reserve and we'll 20 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 1: miss at least four weeks with a quad injury. Coachacket 21 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:08,759 Speaker 1: announced today that Caden Sterns will start in Simmons's place. 22 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: In Both coach Hackett and defensive coordinator I jero E 23 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,959 Speaker 1: Verro detailed what they like about Stearns is game. We're 24 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: excited for him. It's going to be a great opportunity 25 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: for him, and he's got a lot of good game experience, 26 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 1: so we're excited. Standards is always a standard and uh, 27 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: you know the thing we try to appreciate you guys, 28 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 1: your only one play away from being being up, and 29 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 1: so everybody's gotta stay ready and uh um. One thing 30 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 1: we're always harping on the guys about is that no 31 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,960 Speaker 1: matter what your role is, you gotta everybody's got to 32 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: prepare to play. So m you know, Kat has done 33 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: a good job of that and so I feel confident 34 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 1: he'll be He'll do a hell of a job in there. 35 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: And Special teams coordinator Dwyane Stukes chimed in and discussed 36 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: how this changes Stearns' role on special teams. Obviously we 37 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 1: use Katan as a four core special teams player. Once 38 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: he starts playing defense, you don't want to wear Katan 39 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: down and now you're going down to you know, no 40 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 1: disrespect to the other stages, but now you keep going 41 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 1: down the line, and you're going down the line. Obviously, 42 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: he's starting for a reason, so we will take care 43 00:01:58,120 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: of him as far our special team to go. As 44 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, Justin Allen also addressed the media today and 45 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: discussed how the game win operationally, and he talked about 46 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 1: Jerry Duty's performance on Monday night. I thought, you know, 47 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: with the amount of plays that we had and the 48 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: double calls and and just handling everything, and um, I 49 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: thought it was it was as smooth as it could 50 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: be as far as the first game with a new 51 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: quarterback and new system, UM and a loud environment. So 52 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: there's there's a lot of good to build off of 53 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: that game, especially with you know, those guys really buying 54 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 1: in everything. UM. But I was proud of those guys 55 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: and how they fought, and we're looking forward to this week. 56 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: I'm really proud of Jerry and how he responded to everything. UM. 57 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 1: You know, this offseason, he knew that this was gonna 58 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: be a big one for him, especially it was tim, 59 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: so I think he stepped up to the plate, did 60 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: a really good job for us and somebody we're gonna 61 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: lean on. And as we discussed on this show a 62 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: few times this week, the defense came out in the 63 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 1: second half versus Seahawks and held them to just thirty 64 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: four yards. Defensive coordinatory Jerry Verro discussed what changed a 65 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: half time for the defense and how they can use 66 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: that momentum heading into this weekend. Maybe a big part 67 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: of it is probably just the game speed. You know, 68 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: I'm getting used to play in football again at full 69 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: speed and tackling and all that stuff. Um, things happening 70 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,399 Speaker 1: a lot faster. Uh. I always think there's a big 71 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: jump in terms of the speed of the game, even 72 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: playing even if you play in preseason games, it goes 73 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: so much fashion and regular seeing game, same thing when 74 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: you get to the playoffs. You know, the game just 75 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 1: gets faster and faster. Um. And so I think the 76 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 1: guys did a good job of in the second half 77 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: of just reacting better. They got their feet under them, 78 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: felt more comfortable. Um. You know, we didn't really do 79 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: a lot of adjustment wise. UM, I just think you know, 80 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: we cleaned up some things and then the guys did 81 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: a good job of executing and as we wrap up 82 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: the top news of the day. Let's take a look 83 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: at today's injury report. Guard Quinn Miners, wide receiver kJ 84 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: Hamler in inside linebacker Josie Jewell all did not participate 85 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: at practice today. Outside linebacker Randy Gregory, cornerback Kwan Williams, 86 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: and defensive lineman d Shawn Williams were limited, and offensive 87 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: lineman Billy Turner was a full participant. Coach I had 88 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: said if Quinn Miners doesn't start at right guard, it 89 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: will be Graham Glasgow who starts in his place. Now, 90 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: let's welcome ESPN's Houston Texans reporter DJ b n m 91 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: A to the show to take a look at this 92 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: matchup from the Texans perspective. DJ, appreciate you joining me today. 93 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: How are things going down there in Houston? It's going great. Um. 94 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: You know, I moved out here a couple of months ago, 95 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: and when I moved, my allergies were trying to take 96 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: me out. But they've calmed down since everything good. You know. Well, 97 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: I'm glad you got that figured out. I mean, what 98 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 1: a way for you guys to kick off this season 99 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,280 Speaker 1: with a tie to the Colts. I mean, especially it 100 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: being an a f C South rival. Yeah, absolutely. I 101 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 1: mean it shouldn't have got to that point where it 102 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: resulted in a tie when you're up seventeen and the fourth, 103 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: but I guess you know you can. It's better to 104 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,840 Speaker 1: tie than to lose completely. Well, just a couple of 105 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 1: days now until the team heads here to Denver four 106 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: week two to face the Broncos. DJ would excites you 107 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 1: most about this matchup? Um? For me personally, I do 108 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: want to see what the Texans defensive backs the secondary 109 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 1: can do against the Broncos receiving corps. I'm really I've 110 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 1: always been high on Sutton and Jared Judy, and I'm 111 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 1: really high on the Texas secondary led by Dylan Petrie 112 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: and Derek Stingley and Steven Nelson and Desmond King and 113 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 1: Jonathan Owens. They played really well, even though the numbers 114 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 1: against Matt Ryan said they you know, they allowed over 115 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: three hundred yards passing, but that was a combination of 116 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: fatigue along with some of them and beat on some 117 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: inside routes and you know, some of that was on 118 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: the linebackers too. But again when it was time to 119 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 1: make some plays, they were able to make some play. 120 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: So I'm really excited to see what they're gonna be 121 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 1: able to do against a quarterback that can extend push 122 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: the ball down the field. I want to see if 123 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: Steven Nelson, Derek Stingley, those boys will they're be ready 124 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: to handle those down the field shots. Well, DJ, looking 125 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: at this Texans offense, what did you think about their 126 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 1: performance against the Colts that you really want to see 127 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: them continue to build on as they come here and 128 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 1: face this Denver defense. Yeah, I think it was solid. 129 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 1: Obviously the second and third question when they scored most 130 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,559 Speaker 1: of their points, but no, the fourth quarter it scored 131 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: zero points. I believe had like around thirteen yards total, 132 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: and obviously the first quarter they couldn't get much going. 133 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,359 Speaker 1: So you want them to be able to capitalize and 134 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: carry that energy from the second and third quarter on 135 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 1: to an entire spread it off for an entire game. 136 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: So you don't go into these jobs because I believe 137 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: the offense at least because a couple of first downs 138 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,119 Speaker 1: at least gets maybe a field goal in that fourth quarter, 139 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: the game's over, you know, because again you know it's 140 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,840 Speaker 1: comment in football. You want even though the defense the 141 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: seventeen points, a lot of it came because the offense 142 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: couldn't stay on the field, so they can carry that 143 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 1: momentum from the second and third quarter when I was 144 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: able to put up thirty twenty points and be able 145 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: to get some more points here and there in the 146 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: first and fourth that that that would be a pretty 147 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,280 Speaker 1: efficient offense. And for quarterback Davis Mills, what did you 148 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: think about his performance on Sunday? I feel like it 149 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: was extremely solid. When you can have a Pastory hundred 150 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 1: pass for two of two forty and have to touchdown 151 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 1: the under section, that's extremely solid. I just want to 152 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: see him when there's chaos around him a little bit. 153 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 1: Can he still make the throws that required when it's 154 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: time to push the ball outside the numbers on a 155 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: consistent basis, even when the pockets a little bit mney. 156 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: Can he still execute those throws? Because there was some 157 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: place where he missed. Um, whether it's two Cooks or 158 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: Sidney for Collins or even Connolly, he missed on a 159 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: couple of occasions. But um, you just want to see 160 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: him when things get a little bit luddy, you need 161 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: to make a play. Can he make that play? Because 162 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 1: he has the arm strength required to be able to 163 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,559 Speaker 1: make those throws? Is can he have the accuracy to touch, 164 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: the anticipation to get the ball out there when needed? Well, 165 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: I know head coach love Smith said that the plan 166 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: this week was to get running back Damien Piers more 167 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: carries moving forward, DJ, what do you think the plan 168 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: might look like for him on Sunday? I mean, did 169 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: you like what you saw from him against the Colts 170 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,239 Speaker 1: last Sunday? Yeah? I mean I liked there his longest 171 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: run with the e R run. If he doesn't get 172 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: tackled by his shoes string, he could have broke the 173 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: effort fifteen maybe twin yards. He you know, he just 174 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: couldn't get into that rhythm. You obviously want to see 175 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: him prove a little bit when it comes to pass blocking, 176 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: but the talent is there and they've already admit they 177 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 1: want to keep them feature. They want to get him 178 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: the ball more so. I could see snare where he 179 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: gets at least fifteen touches this week. Well, despite the 180 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: Broncos not getting the win in week one. You know, DJ, 181 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: you talked on this a little bit earlier. The offense 182 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: here really seemed to move through ball pretty well, and 183 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson he threw for over three hundred yards. You 184 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: know you touched on the Texans secondary, but maybe who 185 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,599 Speaker 1: else on this Texans defense do you think needs to 186 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 1: step up and how do you think they'll fair going 187 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: up against Russell. I think Jerry Hughes, who was able 188 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: to tap into the following youth last week. He had 189 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 1: two sacks, a forced fumble, and an interception. He had 190 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 1: a dominant day if you know the text, be able 191 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 1: to pull out that win. He might have got to 192 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 1: Player of the week. And then you added on the 193 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: other side, defensiveman John Than Gannard. If those two book 194 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: game pass rushers can continue to create pressure and fourth 195 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson left and make him hop to hold onto 196 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 1: the ball and making you have to live in and 197 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 1: play making mode versus thing on schedule with the occasional 198 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,439 Speaker 1: playmaking mode. Then attacking the you know Texans, they'll be 199 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: able to have a really good shot, But again that's 200 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 1: a lot easier said than done. Well, like you said, 201 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: you're interested to see what this Texans secondary can do 202 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: going up against this The Broncos wide receiver cord is 203 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: So do you think that group's kind of the matchup 204 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: to watch or who are you gonna be looking for? 205 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 1: I think the matchup to watch, I think for a 206 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: casual fan is going to be the Texans secondary versus 207 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 1: the Broncos passing attack. But I do think the game 208 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 1: will come down to the trenches on both sides, offense defense, 209 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: defense versus offense both ways because both of them want 210 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: to run the ball, and the Texans their offense really 211 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: dictated on can we run the ball? Official because they 212 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 1: don't want to have David musing about four five fifty times. 213 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: Most teams don't actually, but you know, they really don't 214 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 1: want David Mills half win the game with his arm. 215 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 1: Only they wanted to be balanced. We can play off 216 00:09:58,360 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: of that, and they wanted to time to make throws. 217 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 1: Then he can make those throws and he'll be an 218 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: advantage situations. The run game is going, so I think 219 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: the key matter for the Texans is they're running um 220 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 1: their offers a line versus the Broncos defensive line, who 221 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 1: came alive in the second half against the Seahawks. All right, DJ, last, 222 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: but not least, do you have a game prediction? Who 223 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:19,839 Speaker 1: do you think is gonna win this one? Oh? No, 224 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 1: I think yeah, I think the I think the Broncos 225 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 1: probably win this one. I do think that he'll be 226 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: closer than what the spread is expresses eleven and a 227 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,559 Speaker 1: half or ten and a half, whatever the number is. 228 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 1: I don't think that it will be a double victory 229 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 1: because they're bothing. The Broncos still, you know, working out 230 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: the Kings. They still have a lot of new moving pieces, 231 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: new head coach, you OC, new DC, new quarterback, Texans, 232 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 1: a little annuity. So I think that um along, the 233 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: defense comes up, comes to play, they'll be able to 234 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: keep it a game. But I do think the Broncos 235 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: up well. I hope you're right and that we get 236 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 1: to win. DJ looking forward to this game on a Sunday, 237 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: I really appreciate your time and your insight.
