He had extra points. 39 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,399 Speaker 5: It was a season show, no extra points. 40 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 4: Was still done by ABC thirteen then it was not. 41 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 1: In house yet, so they would do web Do you 42 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: remember us doing web videos on Fridays, like to look 43 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: forward to for the weekend. 44 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 4: So on the web. 45 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 3: I remember social media posts were let's post something, all right, 46 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 3: where's this for food? To post something? Ten years later, 47 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 3: it's an industry. It's unstoppable. Well less than ten years later, 48 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 3: it evolved into that. I remember remember when Eric said 49 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 3: in Assensio, who was our first web guy under our crew? 50 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 3: Not I know Nick Shank and Cardo O'Toole before that, 51 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,119 Speaker 3: but Eric said to me once, yeah. 52 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 4: We need a full time social media person.

Now we have a whole department. 56 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 4: So there it is. 57 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:20,640 Speaker 2: I remember we had that. 58 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: Do you remember the Twitter mirror because we used to 59 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: we didn't have selfie I don't know why we didn't do. 60 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 4: Selfiees, it's awesome. 61 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: We had a mirror that looked like Cinderella's mirror and 62 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 1: we would and it needed its own Wi Fi and 63 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: somebody always had to travel, and somehow I got saddled 64 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: with the Twitter mirror to take selfie videos with players 65 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: and it was so ridiculous. Literally picture a handheld vanity mirror, yes, 66 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 1: with a bunch of like Twitter birds at the top, 67 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: so it looks. 68 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 2: Very gaudy. 69 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 3: The video come out as just a video, had nothing 70 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 3: to do with the mirror. 71 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 5: Yes, yeah, so why I have a mirror? And they 72 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 5: tried to give it to Vince Wilfork one time. I'm 73 00:02:59,600 --> 00:02:59,959 Speaker 5: not doing that. 74 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, he's too tough for that. 75 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: Times have change Now we just use our phones. It's 76 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: all much more simplistic. But yes, yeah, it's my second 77 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: to last show. I guess I hadn't really thought about it. 78 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 4: Oh really, Oh sorry I alerted you to Well. 79 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,080 Speaker 2: You've alerted everyone now and everyone knows it's my second Well. 80 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 4: More next week. 81 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 2: So if I mess up, I've got one more. 82 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,239 Speaker 3: Show to get it right, get it right, to finally 83 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 3: pitch the perfect show. It's funny because there was an 84 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 3: old ESPN This is Sports Center about that they're pitching 85 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 3: the perfect show and everyone's trying not to say anything. 86 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 3: They're waiting for the host to like wrap it up. 87 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 3: It's like a no hitter in okay, okay, yes, and 88 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 3: then does he screw up at the end or somebody. 89 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 3: But I always tell people there's no such thing as 90 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 3: the perfect broadcast. It's always flawed, especially when you're like 91 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 3: this talking broadcasting a game. 92 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 4: There's no perfect game. 93 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 3: I always know when the first little wrinkle, the little 94 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 3: glitch happens in the broadcast on a Sunday, I'm thinking, 95 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 3: there it goes, there goes the perfect broadcast. 96 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 2: What's your perfect broadcast? As close to a perfect broadcast, 97 00:03:57,960 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 2: your best I. 98 00:03:58,320 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 4: Don't think of it. 99 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 3: I don't know what it would be, because it might 100 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 3: be something where I wasn't thinking about it that was 101 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 3: probably more perfect than one where I was. 102 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 4: So it's hard to say. 103 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 3: Uh, there are games where you know, sometimes those games 104 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 3: where it's just crazy at shootout and you sort of 105 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 3: lose track of everything, and you're just going with the flow. 106 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 4: You're like the players. 107 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 3: It's like first down down, first down, touchdown, it's just 108 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:21,559 Speaker 3: going back and forth. 109 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 4: Those are the best. 110 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 5: What about the Falcons game here in twenty eleven when 111 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 5: it got really really loud because a lot happened in 112 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 5: that one, though, But there are a big game plays. 113 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,479 Speaker 5: There's a big play at the end. They could have 114 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 5: won it had they completely. 115 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 3: Honestly, the perfect broadcast was probably a low scoring game 116 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 3: like that, where the game sort of I always say, 117 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 3: I hope the game comes to me right. You don't 118 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 3: want a lot of clunky, crazy stuff. The first NFL 119 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 3: game I ever did was a playoff game between the 120 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 3: Ravens and the Dolphins, and I've told this story where 121 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,599 Speaker 3: Howard David couldn't make it so west Wood One asked 122 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 3: me to do it on a filling basis. I found 123 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 3: it out five in the morning. Anyway, there I am 124 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 3: doing the game, and I thought this game better come 125 00:04:58,160 --> 00:04:58,359 Speaker 3: to me. 126 00:04:58,400 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 4: And it did. 127 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 3: It was like ten to seven. It was a low scoring, 128 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 3: boring game, but that's just what I needed. I needed 129 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 3: a boring, simple game. Dolphins couldn't score. It was in 130 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 3: Miami Ravens had Tony Siragusa still in Sam Adams and 131 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 3: it was low scoring, boring, easy to call, not all this. 132 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,799 Speaker 3: What was that a weird bounce and you didn't quite 133 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 3: catch it and somebody got in the way and that 134 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 3: kind of thing. 135 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: Don't you want a good touchdown to like punctuate the game? 136 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 5: You do? 137 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 3: But I also wanted to do it right, you know, 138 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 3: I wanted to get it right. I was doing the 139 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 3: Hurricanes at the time, and I'd never done an NFL game, 140 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 3: and I just wanted to get it right. And then 141 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 3: I discovered the truth about NFL broadcasting, which is it's 142 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 3: easier to broadcast an NFL game than a college game 143 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 3: in many ways because the roster size, the roster size 144 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 3: and everything. You have so much information from the public 145 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 3: relations departments. You don't have duplications member organized. Yeah, for 146 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 3: sure the preseason you do. But I mean when I 147 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 3: moved here, Texas had two number threes, right, Salvin Young 148 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 3: and I forget who the other guy was, And I 149 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 3: remember I remember thinking about that. Good luck with the 150 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 3: college stuff, Craig Way, I've got the fell now where 151 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 3: everything is very It was easier too when it was 152 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 3: wide receivers. 153 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 4: Tight ends are all in the. 154 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 3: Eighties and very rarely do you have lower numbers, And 155 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 3: now everybody's all over the place. 156 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 5: You were basically doing an NFL broadcast, though, because Miami, 157 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 5: that Miami team. Yeah, they pumped out uys. 158 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: Well, speaking, you would have loved talking to Denzel Pairman 159 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: because he's a king, he's a game. We talked about Miami, 160 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: we talked about the U He said he probably would 161 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: have stayed in Florida either way. 162 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 4: But you talked about his fish committing suicides. 163 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,919 Speaker 1: This show started, he was late, and we heard he 164 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: was gonna be five minutes late. He's about ten minutes late, 165 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,919 Speaker 1: which is fine because players are busy on Tuesday getting 166 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: rehab and whatever. But he walks in he said, sorry, 167 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 1: I'm late. I had a fish that jumped out of 168 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 1: the tank. I was like, okay, well you know what 169 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,599 Speaker 1: sailess fish. I didn't want to know because I wanted 170 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: to start the show with why. 171 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 5: He was late. 172 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 4: That was one of those don't tell me now. 173 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 1: He told that he's got a bunch of different types 174 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: of fish. But the more interesting part of the story 175 00:06:56,320 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 1: is that the fish committed suicide was down and he said, 176 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: for those of you missed the first hour, he said, 177 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 1: that's the first time that's happened this year. 178 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 4: Fish jump out of the tank. 179 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 2: Maybe you should look into that, maybe, And he suggested 180 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 2: a lid. 181 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: I suggested a bigger pool on his floor for the 182 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: fish to dive into, so that that would they would 183 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: save themselves. But he said, you know what, when it's 184 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: there time to go, it's time to go. He just 185 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: he didn't want to be of us anymore. So he 186 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: had a very existential take on his fish. 187 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 2: Anyway. That's how that's how that. 188 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 5: I like him. 189 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 4: I like him. He's a very easy guy to like, 190 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 4: and he's intense. 191 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 2: And he's playing well. 192 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, he was PFF's top linebacker of the week. 193 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 5: He's a monster on Sunday. 194 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 3: So PFF, when they say something, I like what they 195 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 3: have to say. When they say something I don't like, 196 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 3: they don't know what they're talking about. 197 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,119 Speaker 1: It was Denzil's one hundredth career game as well, which 198 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: I thought, that's a nice game to have, like lead 199 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: the team and tackles. 200 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 2: The club was off his hand. 201 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: You would have liked him Mark because he started he 202 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: started losing his voice because of all the oning he 203 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: had to do on the field, and so he likes 204 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 1: his concoction of. 205 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 2: Tea with milk, honey, no honey, ginger, lemon. 206 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 4: Yea ginger is good, like this is what? 207 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 2: This is what the radio. 208 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 5: We were joking about that yesterday because he left. He 209 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 5: did a press conference on Monday, and he was kind 210 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 5: of saying as he was walking away about his troubles 211 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 5: with his voice. And I said, she's here with vanderm 212 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 5: vanmil cooking something nice. 213 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 2: With all the European honey lion. 214 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 5: Around five different honeys. And we'd walk in on Vandermier 215 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 5: like guzzling honey. 216 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 4: And I used to guzzle the honey. Remember I went out. 217 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 1: All you remember we remember it was sticky everything. 218 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 4: I had to do what I had to do. 219 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 1: I thought you were going to have like a big 220 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: bee's nest in here. You just wanted the most the 221 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: purest type of honey. Manuka honey. 222 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 4: That's right. I will never forget Manuka. It is good 223 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 4: for you. 224 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 3: They put it on wounds in New Zealand, Okay, and 225 00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 3: they know what they're doing in New Zealand. 226 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 4: I think it sounds exotic, so it must work. 227 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:03,719 Speaker 2: So we talked to Denzel about a lot of different things. 228 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: We talked about how he was like a kicker and 229 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: puncher in high school, and I thought we have not 230 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 1: talked enough about our very own punter, Cameron Johnston seventy 231 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: four yard punt, longest in franchise history. I don't know 232 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: where you guys, like what you thought of the punt, 233 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 1: Like when it went up in the air. I was 234 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: on the field on the sideline, and I remember the 235 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 1: crowd in Carolina audibly gasped, Yeah, as should they should. 236 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,559 Speaker 4: Have launch that? That was a mortar. 237 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 2: It was in the air forever. 238 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, it was. 239 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 3: It's funny because punters, we all see it every week 240 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 3: all the time, right, But there was something about his 241 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 3: leg kick when I just saw it because I focus 242 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 3: in with the binoculars every play I'm up in the 243 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 3: booth calling it, and I just saw his leg. It 244 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 3: just seemed to be extra springy or something. There was 245 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 3: an extra boost to it. And when I call a 246 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 3: long pass play or a punt, I follow the ball 247 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 3: in the air like a camera, right, So I'm in 248 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 3: pretty tight with the binoculars and I can't lose focus 249 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 3: on the ball because if I do, where's the ball, right, 250 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,319 Speaker 3: So I'm following the ball. I'm thinking, this sucker is hot, 251 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 3: this is a big boomer. And then I'm all the 252 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 3: way to the other end of the field and Johnny 253 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 3: said eighty yards in the air or something. I mean, 254 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,959 Speaker 3: it was amazing. A seventy four yard punt. Incredible. He 255 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 3: would have been Special Teams Player of the Week. Maybe 256 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:23,559 Speaker 3: he still gets it. 257 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 4: I don't know. 258 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 3: If the Texans win that game, yeah, he's a lock 259 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,559 Speaker 3: because of where he placed the ball. They were constantly 260 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 3: put in poor field position that final drive. They were 261 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 3: at their nine. Unfortunately, they were able to convert with 262 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 3: the field goal at the end. But he gave you 263 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 3: every chance to win. Unable to close out. 264 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, he did it from his own end zone and 265 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 5: it drove the return man back almost the fifteen. He 266 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 5: couldn't get past. It was down inside the twenty yard line. 267 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 5: That was one of four of six that were down 268 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 5: inside the twenty yard line. Okay, you guys were there. 269 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 5: I know it was hot. It wasn't very windy, was it. 270 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 3: I mean it's like it was a little bit they've 271 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 3: carried that thing out. No no, no, no, no, no, it 272 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 3: wasn't that case at all. I think that it was 273 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 3: into the wind. If anything, if there was any breeze earlier, 274 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 3: it was coming from that way. And you know bowl stadiums, 275 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 3: it swirls or whatever it does. So I'm not saying 276 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 3: it was into a stiff breeze or anything, but it 277 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 3: was certainly not wind aided. 278 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 4: I would think he's. 279 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 5: Putt in seventeen times this season because he missed the 280 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 5: first chunk of the year with on ir nine of 281 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 5: those seventeen have gone inside the twenty been down inside 282 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 5: the twenty. That's better than fifty percent when you're doing that. 283 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,439 Speaker 5: I mean, that's a that's really really high high number 284 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 5: for a punter, and it says a lot about your 285 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 5: coverage units too. 286 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 3: It also says that the Texans are moving the ball 287 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 3: at least enough to prevent him from having to punt 288 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 3: from his own end zone too often right where we've 289 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 3: seen a whole lot of that in the past, where 290 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 3: you just can't get out of dodge and you have 291 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 3: to punt from your own end too deep and you're 292 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 3: giving them good field position. Because it's even a guy 293 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 3: like that has a difficult time doing it. 294 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: You know, it was so many there was it's really 295 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: unfortunate obviously that it's a law, but there were so 296 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 1: many good things that happened in that game and it 297 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: was such a yeah. I mean, defensively, it felt like 298 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: there was a lot of pressure on Bryce Young. First 299 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,560 Speaker 1: of all, I saw Bryce Young warming up before the game, 300 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 1: and I was telling Mark he is slight, Like I 301 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: know that we've heard him being small, and everyone's like, 302 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: why is everyone making a big deal out a size. 303 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: But even knowing that, when I saw him on the 304 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 1: field warming up without the pads and everything, he doesn't 305 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: look very big and he's hard to spot on the 306 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,319 Speaker 1: field actually, so he sort of gets dwarfed. 307 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 2: By the rest of the old line. 308 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 1: But just seeing what this defensive line was able to 309 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: do between Garnard getting two and a half sacks, Malite Collins, 310 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 1: all the pressures, all the hits, I mean, the defense 311 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 1: really had a good game. And I think after the game, 312 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 1: Jonathan Garnard said it, what started off was what everyone 313 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: was hoping to be a battle of the quarterbacks sort 314 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: of turned into a defensive battle. 315 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 4: At the end of the day, it was a defensive battle. 316 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 4: There's no doubt. 317 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 3: When you have a fifteen thirteen outing. It felt like 318 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,319 Speaker 3: one half of offensive output for the Texans. I know 319 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 3: they scored two t touchdowns, but one hundred and forty 320 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:02,959 Speaker 3: passing yards that's not going to get it done. 321 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,199 Speaker 4: They'll be the first to tell you that. 322 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 3: They ran for one ten, which in context of this 323 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,680 Speaker 3: season is what their third best output of the year. 324 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 4: But it didn't feel like it. It didn't feel like. 325 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, thirty carries and you look at the end of 326 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 3: the day, it's just not what you're looking for. It 327 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 3: felt like the Texans were the team that might have 328 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,079 Speaker 3: been sacked six times. When you look at the output, 329 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 3: you just didn't get it and to have. And I've 330 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 3: had disputes with people and we've been going back and 331 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 3: forth like where do they need the most help, And 332 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 3: I'm thinking, well, they need to get it together on 333 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 3: offense because we've seen some explosive offense from this team 334 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 3: so far, but you didn't see it in that game. 335 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 4: And I'm thinking it's an aberration. 336 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 3: I'm hoping it's an aberration because you had second and 337 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 3: five at their thirty five with the game on the 338 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 3: line in the fourth quarter. If you move the ball 339 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 3: into field goal range, you probably win. You might not, 340 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 3: but you probably win. So second and five at their 341 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 3: thirty five and you end up having to punt because 342 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 3: what was it? Incomplete five yard penalty third and ten 343 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 3: and you get either sacked or you're thinking, oh, we're 344 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 3: not gonna try a fifty eight yard field goal. That 345 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 3: was it and you have to go for it, and 346 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 3: I mean you have to go for a punt there 347 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 3: and pin them deep, which they did, but again they 348 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:14,200 Speaker 3: gave up that game winning drive. 349 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 5: Think about it. They have two touchdown drives, two scoring 350 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 5: drives total. Those were both double digit scoring drives, which 351 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 5: is really good. You like that. Okay, the other seven 352 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 5: drives combined, you punt six times, you fumble it away, 353 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 5: but on those seven drives you only average three point 354 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 5: nine plays per possession. I mean, you're basically going three 355 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 5: and out and at most you had five plays on 356 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 5: all those other drives combined. So they just couldn't get 357 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 5: things going unless they were scoring it on those two drives. 358 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 3: A lot of stress on the defense when they took 359 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 3: the lead with that drive in the second half. They 360 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 3: forced two punts after that, two Carolina punts after that, 361 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 3: so they got the ball back twice, but unable to 362 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 3: do what they needed to do, which was score at 363 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 3: least one more time, or at least stop them and look, 364 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 3: if they'd want a game thirteen twelve, Believe me, I'd 365 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 3: be celebrating wholeheartedly and say, look, they'll get the offense 366 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 3: together win. 367 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 4: But they wont. 368 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a beautiful win, because they're all wins are beautiful. 369 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 3: They're so rare and precious and beautiful in this league. 370 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 3: You have to appreciate them as they occur. But man, 371 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 3: that was really tough to take. You knew that you 372 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 3: probably had the better team and whatever. 373 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 4: Just got to try again. And what did we talk 374 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 4: about last week? 375 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 3: I talked about one win Chicago winning a game at home, 376 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 3: one win New England winning a game at home. That 377 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 3: was the previous week, and then this weekend, what happens 378 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 3: you lose to owen sixth Carolina Because it's the NFL 379 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 3: and it's unpredictable and you better be ready. 380 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: I kind of wish we had the bye week this 381 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: week because we were talking about Andre. We're saying, you 382 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 1: never want a buy week when the team is hot, 383 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: and it felt like this team was kind of hot. 384 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 4: I hate going into the buye with a loss, though. 385 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 1: I hate going out to the buye with a loss too, 386 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: But it just seemed like the momentum that they had. Yeah, 387 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 1: you know, maybe because it's a young team and it 388 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: is a you know, new young quarterback and a lot 389 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 1: of young players and young everything. Yep, you know, and 390 00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: maybe Bobby Slow wanted to try some different things change 391 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 1: the tendencies, and so they tried it. You know, they're 392 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 1: gonna have to go back to the drawing board for 393 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 1: this week against Tampa Bay. But just as far as 394 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: stopping the run, they were really good defensively. They made 395 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: a lot of improvements that were so good. Jo Robert 396 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: only had twenty eight yards on fifteen attempts. He was 397 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: averaging one point nine yards at carry, and they did 398 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: sack like you mentioned, Bryce Young six times. 399 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 2: But the offense, you. 400 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: Know, maybe you get a little bit healthier, maybe you 401 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 1: get a few guys back. 402 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 2: I don't know what happens. Jared Patterson. 403 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 1: Obviously, that's a that's gonna be a big story for 404 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 1: Sunday's game because you're not gonna have him back, and 405 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 1: you got to figure out that center position in a 406 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: quick hurry. 407 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, I want to talk abou him in a second, 408 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 5: but I want to do one more thing. Okay, put 409 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 5: your thinking caps on, close your eyes, okay, and pretend 410 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 5: you don't know what happened. I'm gonna do. What if 411 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 5: I told you, what's your score prediction? If I told 412 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 5: you before the game, you're gonna allow forty four rushing yards, 413 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 5: you're gonna sack Stroud six times, ten times, You're gonna 414 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 5: have a goal line stand where you don't let him 415 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 5: in the end zone on fourth day. 416 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 2: That was amazing, by the way I was in the 417 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 2: end zone four What. 418 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 5: Would be what would you think the outcome would have been? 419 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,640 Speaker 3: Fourteen point win, ten point win at least that kind 420 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:08,880 Speaker 3: of thing. 421 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: I would have asked you the turnover battle, but you 422 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:14,640 Speaker 1: didn't get any takeaways. 423 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 5: So yeah, but yeah, maybe. 424 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: In a low scoring game, you know that delay of 425 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: the delay of game penalty like that, that could have 426 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 1: been a difference maker too. It just it was such 427 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 1: a close game in all fronts. 428 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, I uh looked at the defensive numbers afterwards because 429 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 3: I knew that despite the loss, they were going to 430 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 3: climb on certain charts. They are sixth in the NFL 431 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:41,920 Speaker 3: in scoring defense. That's amazing. Wow, I mean that's amazing, 432 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 3: tied with Tampa Bay, which is coming in here on Sunday, obviously, 433 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 3: But I thought, okay, where have we been not in 434 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,360 Speaker 3: a good place defensively the last couple of years now 435 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 3: We've talked about it though, like last year they were 436 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 3: in a lot of games, defense under a lot of stress, 437 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 3: offense not doing its thing. But this year, this defense, 438 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 3: you're what are they against the runnow? Eleventh or something 439 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 3: like that. They are really climbing these charts and that's nice. 440 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 3: I think this defense can do some things for them. 441 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,639 Speaker 3: They need to work on the consistency on offense running 442 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,440 Speaker 3: the football, run it for more than one ten, find 443 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 3: a way to really get Pierce going and Singletary two 444 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 3: for that matter. They had another sort of semi equal 445 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 3: number of carries in this game. And Stroud is Stroud. 446 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 3: I mean, you've is he the best player on the team. 447 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 3: You know, we could argue that all day, but he's 448 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 3: c J. 449 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 5: Stroud. 450 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 4: He's an awesome quarterback. 451 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 3: They got to find a way to really get him 452 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 3: going here against Tampa Bay on Sunday. And that's not 453 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 3: gonna be easy because we just said they have a 454 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,159 Speaker 3: good defense and they have names, you know, I mean, 455 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 3: you have no you know, Brian Burns, you know, Derek 456 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 3: Brown a little bit for the Carolina Panthers, Tampa Bay. 457 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 4: Go look at their defense. These are guys. 458 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, remember seeing them in the Super Bowl. I 459 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 3: remember seeing them in all these playoff games they've played 460 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:55,199 Speaker 3: in recent years. I know they had Tom Brady and 461 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 3: I said to Demiko, those are the Brady Bucks. 462 00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:58,919 Speaker 4: These are the Baker Bucks. 463 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 3: But they have a lot of the same guys, a 464 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 3: lot of the same dudes that you know very well, 465 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 3: and they're ready to come in here and try to 466 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 3: snap a three game losing streak that they have going on. 467 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 1: One of those guys is Vitavea right there in the 468 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: middle of the D line. And that brings us back 469 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: to Jared Patterson being out for Sunday's game. Yeah, you 470 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: see him getting caught like that's not a that's not 471 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: ideal to have one of the best news tackles in 472 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:21,959 Speaker 1: the league going against I don't know they do it. 473 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: Fill in the blank at center and oh my gosh, 474 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: the number. I wrote a story about this. It's up 475 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: on Houston Texas dot com. The number of centers this 476 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,679 Speaker 1: team has gone through this year. Because you start off 477 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: with Scott Questenberry, who's your starting center from last year. 478 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,159 Speaker 1: He gets injured in camp, gets carted off the field. 479 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 1: Then you bring in Juice Scruggs. No problem, second round 480 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 1: draft pick, that's what you drafted him for. He's gonna 481 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: get a start a little bit early. Fine, does something 482 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 1: at the end of does something at the end of 483 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: preseason in the New Orleans game, lands on ir Okay, 484 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 1: Jared Patterson, next man up. He comes in and is 485 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 1: really playing strong the last seven. 486 00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 2: Games or so. 487 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 1: You don't even remember that he's a rookie and he 488 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 1: wasn't even taking the majority of snaps in camp. 489 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:03,640 Speaker 4: Dimiko said that too. 490 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 3: The fact that we haven't talked about him, We haven't 491 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 3: talked about it a great thing, because offensive linemen tend 492 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:09,719 Speaker 3: to be that way, right. You don't want to hear 493 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,919 Speaker 3: their name much because you want to hear the unit 494 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 3: the offensive line is doing a great job. You don't 495 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 3: want to hear individual names much because that usually means 496 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 3: they're being singled out for mistakes they've made. 497 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 4: But Patterson has performed well. 498 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 1: You've never right exactly if you heard his name, it 499 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 1: would have been like a full snap or something. Some 500 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 1: center quarterback exchange gone wrong. Haven't heard that at all, 501 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 1: considering like he wasn't working with CJ and Camp. But 502 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: now he goes out and then. 503 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 2: Who comes in now? Is just Scrugs going to come off? 504 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:39,400 Speaker 5: Irer? 505 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,719 Speaker 4: Well, he's getting ready, I don't know. 506 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 3: It just doesn't feel like he's ready to step in 507 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 3: at this particular moment in time. Jimmy Morris, he's still 508 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 3: in the practice squad. Michael Dieter who filled in during 509 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,439 Speaker 3: the game. You do have options there. At least they 510 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 3: have a week to prepare for this particular game and 511 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,719 Speaker 3: then take it from there, because we all know this 512 00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 3: is an ebb and flow thing with the roster and 513 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 3: you have the tid deadline, you have signings, and you 514 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 3: have elevations every week, and it's more complex and active 515 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 3: than ever and COVID had a lot to do with that, 516 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 3: with the expansion of the practice squads, the flexibility with 517 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 3: the roster on game day and different things you can do. 518 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 3: It's great for the players, great for the teams. We've 519 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 3: mentioned all that, and I think that they're going to 520 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 3: continue to churn this thing. They're going to continue to 521 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 3: look for players who can help them out, and they 522 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 3: obviously need help at that spot right now. 523 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,400 Speaker 5: You know, it's really it's quietly one of the most 524 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:31,679 Speaker 5: holy Molly moments or things out there, because think about you, 525 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 5: a first year head coach, first year offensive coordinator, rookie quarterback, 526 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 5: and a rookie center. I mean, it's almost a recipe 527 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 5: for doom and maybe one or two wins tops and 528 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 5: they've they've been able to win three be really really 529 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 5: close to two others, and you know, the schedule still 530 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 5: sets up nicely for what they can do. I mean, 531 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 5: I know there's a bit of doom in gloom this week, 532 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:57,640 Speaker 5: but I'm not overly concerned about what I saw on Sunday. Yeah, 533 00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 5: you got to get better, but it's like CJ. Strauss, 534 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 5: make a few more throws, you're on the field a 535 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 5: lot longer, you get going. 536 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 3: You know, I had four knockdowns, exact, if you complete 537 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 3: two of those, let's just say you have two knockdowns 538 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,400 Speaker 3: instead of four, that could extend a drive, it could 539 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 3: mean a score, it could mean who knows what. You 540 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:16,359 Speaker 3: keep the ball away from them a little bit longer, 541 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 3: The universe changes. I mean, everything has an impact. And 542 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:23,120 Speaker 3: that was just not their day. So and what did 543 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 3: cjsay cobwebs. After the bye I thought that was an 544 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 3: interesting word. So he felt like they just weren't on 545 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 3: their game. We'll see if they are on their game 546 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 3: on Sunday. But I don't feel dooming gloom. I just 547 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 3: feel like this is a big challenge is the NFL. 548 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 3: We see these teams win and lose every week, and 549 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,119 Speaker 3: you feel great when you win, you feel like crap 550 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 3: when you lose, and then you look at the end 551 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 3: result at the end of the year, you hope you 552 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,919 Speaker 3: can win more than you lose. This is really scientific. 553 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 3: Win more than you lose and you're gonna be in 554 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,919 Speaker 3: good shape. Yes, I figured it all out after twenty 555 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 3: two years. 556 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,360 Speaker 4: That's what you're looking to do in this league. 557 00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 2: I thought it was. Yeah, it was cobwebs. 558 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 1: Not only for CG but Tank Dell had not played 559 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: a game in two weeks really because he had the concussion. 560 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 4: He was back. 561 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 2: I mean, he did some nice things. 562 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 5: Now he's like a feather. 563 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 4: Oh just so good. 564 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: Well him being back, I feel a lot more comfortable 565 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,159 Speaker 1: than him not being And I think what the injuries 566 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 1: of the old line. The old line has Coach Strausser 567 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: has done a fantastic job with these guys, bring them 568 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,159 Speaker 1: up to speed. But I think just getting some of 569 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: your offensive playmakers back and getting the ball in their hands, 570 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 1: that's what CJ. 571 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 2: Stroll is gonna want to see. 572 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 1: And you know that he's really hard on himself after 573 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 1: the game and talking about it after the game. 574 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 2: But I feel like this is a good you come 575 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 2: back home. 576 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, you got everybody healthy, as healthy as they can 577 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: be at this time of year. 578 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 3: He's rock and roll, and you just go four of 579 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 3: the next five games are at NRG Stadium. 580 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 4: That's big. 581 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 5: Yeah. 582 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:47,880 Speaker 3: So after this one you go to Cincinnati, then you're 583 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 3: back for a three game home stretch. You have what 584 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 3: Arizona and not in this order necessarily. Jacksonville might be 585 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 3: the last one. 586 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 4: Denver. 587 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 3: Maybe that's the last one. I don't know, but Denver, Arizona, Jacksonville. 588 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 3: Can't wait for the Jacksonville one. That's Thanksgiving weekend. That's 589 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:02,480 Speaker 3: gonna be cool. 590 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:06,639 Speaker 5: Battle Red Helmets two against Jacksonville, you bet it'll be 591 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 5: battle back. 592 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 4: I tend to know these things. I always forget those things. 593 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,360 Speaker 3: The only time I really had battle Red locked into 594 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 3: my brain was last year on November third. 595 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 4: I still remember the day because it was the Eagles 596 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 4: and the battle. 597 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 5: Right helmet, So I would guess the third battle Red 598 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 5: helmet will be the final game of the year against 599 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 5: the Titans at home. 600 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 2: I don't know, because they get to wear the battle 601 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 2: red helmets we wear on the road. 602 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 4: When they wear the oiler uniforms. Are we going to 603 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 4: get into that game now? 604 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 5: I think, But there's gonna be three times they've already 605 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:33,719 Speaker 5: worn it once. We know they're going to wear it 606 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 5: against the Jags. I would think it's going to be 607 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,919 Speaker 5: against the Titans, right I don't know. 608 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 3: I feel much better than I did yesterday because yesterday 609 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 3: I couldn't even think about the Titans game and hop 610 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 3: with three touchdown, I just couldn't even think about it. 611 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 3: And today I'm getting over the weekend a little bit more. 612 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 3: That was a rough weekend. That was a rough NFL 613 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,680 Speaker 3: Sunday for the Houston Texans. The only thing that really 614 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 3: came through for you was the Colts losing, which was 615 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:03,680 Speaker 3: great to the and I always enjoy watching the Patriots lose. 616 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 3: It has really nothing to do with us, but I 617 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 3: enjoy having it happen. 618 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 5: And the Browns lost too, that's good for it. 619 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, how could I forget that address. 620 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: It's a crazy weekend of NFL football, and it's a 621 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: crazy day because the NFL trade deadline pass today. I 622 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 1: want to get your thoughts on some of the big 623 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 1: moves across the NFL. It seems like one position group 624 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 1: in particular has seen a lot of action. We're going 625 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: to get into that and more. It's all coming up 626 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: on Texans All Access. 627 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 2: Welcome back Texans All Access. It's a trade deadline. 628 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: But before we get into that, Mark mentioned DeAndre Hopkins 629 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 1: the unis, I want to give your thoughts because it's 630 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: definitely making its rounds on Twitter. I saw the article 631 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: in the Houston Chronicle that the NFL's in a cease 632 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 1: and to assist a letter. 633 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 2: To University of Houston on the love you of blue uniforms. 634 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 1: Actually, Drew was sitting next to me and he as 635 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 1: soon as that article hit, Drew pulled it up, starts 636 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 1: reading it. 637 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,200 Speaker 2: I start reading it, and you. 638 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 1: Know, it's interesting to see because I know in Houston 639 00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: people have their thoughts about it, but it's it seems 640 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 1: like even nationally people are like, what is the big deal? 641 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 4: The big deal? 642 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 2: The big deal because Ole Miss wears those colors you've got. 643 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,440 Speaker 4: Other but they wore a real oiler uniform. 644 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 2: The Kugs did, but Rice did as well. 645 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:17,880 Speaker 3: But Rice had some silver helmet addition to it. Rice 646 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 3: wasn't a carbon copy. 647 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,640 Speaker 2: Of the Rockets twenty twenty one twenty. 648 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 4: I don't know how that worked. 649 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 1: Twenty twenty twenty twenty one, the Rockets were these baby 650 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 1: blue uniforms. 651 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, with the red trim or whatever, but they I 652 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 3: don't know how that works with the NBA. But it 653 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:34,360 Speaker 3: was so direct what the Kougs did that I get 654 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:35,919 Speaker 3: it in a certain way. But you know what, as 655 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 3: long as they're not selling it, which I guess they're not. 656 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,439 Speaker 3: My understanding is they weren't selling any uniforms like this 657 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 3: or jerseys like this in their team shop. 658 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 4: I don't know if they were. Do you think they 659 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 4: were Drew? Were they? 660 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 5: I don't think they were. 661 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 4: Whatever. 662 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,880 Speaker 5: My biggest question is this, how can the NFL suit 663 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 5: who's driving it? Is it the Titans said, hey, NFL 664 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 5: get on these guys, or is it the NFL acting 665 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 5: almost by themselves saying no, this is a league. 666 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:02,920 Speaker 3: I really don't know the answer to that question, other 667 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,639 Speaker 3: than to say the league has a lot to do 668 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 3: with the uniforms because we're going through these processes right now, right, 669 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 3: and the process definitely involves the League and Nike very much, 670 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 3: so very much, so they have a lot to do 671 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 3: with it. But as far as the rights go, now, 672 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 3: if a store or a business uses the bullhead, for instance, 673 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 3: the league, I guess you could ask the League to 674 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 3: step in and write the cease and to sist. But 675 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,959 Speaker 3: the Texans often do this themselves because it happens all 676 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 3: the time, right, they have to send out a form 677 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 3: letter basically saying, hey, stop it, and we're all encouraged. 678 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 3: You know, if you see something that's really egregious, go 679 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 3: ahead and take a picture of it. 680 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 4: A business. 681 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,119 Speaker 3: There was a business once that was blatantly using the 682 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,679 Speaker 3: bullhead and had nothing to do with the Texans, and 683 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 3: I knew it, and we had partners that competed with 684 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 3: that business, and I just took a shot and sent 685 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:57,160 Speaker 3: it into the legal department and. 686 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,880 Speaker 5: It think about you, guys. So the Titans are doing 687 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 5: this as a shot at all at the Texans. Okay, 688 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 5: So you would think they would like all these other 689 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 5: Houston institutions and teams to wear their colors as opposed 690 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 5: to the Texans. Colors, which is why I'm kind of surprised. 691 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 5: I'm kind of surprised by the lack of any reaction 692 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 5: from them. Have they been told by the NFL, hey 693 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 5: be quiet, or do they wish they could say something 694 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 5: but they can't the Titans yeah, or did they say, hey, 695 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 5: these guys are wearing our uniforms, get after them. I mean, 696 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 5: I think you're right. 697 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 3: I think if you want to totrol the Texans, you 698 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 3: should encourage you age to wear And it says Houston 699 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 3: across that's. 700 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 5: Why they're wearing these uniforms in Nashville. That's the only reason. 701 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 4: Tell you what upset me. 702 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 3: And I wasn't even here for the Oilers, okay, but 703 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,959 Speaker 3: my DNA is spliced into Houston sports history, and I 704 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 3: was upset on all the Twitter handles.

Let let the Titans wear blue and 839 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,320 Speaker 1: maybe the Texans were the white version, and then whoever 840 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,799 Speaker 1: wins gets to keep the jersey and immediately after the 841 00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 1: game have to take off losing team hats, to take 842 00:34:58,600 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 1: off their uniforms and hand it over. 843 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 2: Would it be a great way to solve this problem? 844 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:05,280 Speaker 4: Maybe, Yeah, play for the right to wear the uniform. 845 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:07,239 Speaker 2: You earned it, you get it. 846 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 3: Maybe the next year, maybe for the next year you 847 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:12,840 Speaker 3: get It's like the Oiler Cup, or you play for 848 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 3: the Cup. You play for the Derek Trophy. You know, 849 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 3: that could be our little rivalry like all these big 850 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 3: ten schools. 851 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:20,799 Speaker 4: Like the Axe, you know, the Apple Cup. 852 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:25,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, they play for all these things, Bucket, We'll play 853 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 3: for a little oil. 854 00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:26,840 Speaker 5: Derek. 855 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 4: This is it. This is the trophy between the problem solved. 856 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 3: And there was a time when the Texans were really 857 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 3: marketing the rivalry with the Titans. It was the T 858 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 3: n T rivalry, remember, well, and we didn't do that anymore. 859 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:41,479 Speaker 4: You know, we kind of dropped that over the years. 860 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,800 Speaker 3: It's a rivalry, great, but to play for a Derek 861 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,799 Speaker 3: Trophy Now, now we're talking, although the current players would be. 862 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 4: Like, what's going on?

I guess in the 899 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,520 Speaker 3: locker room if you're wrestling with an assistant, I just. 900 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,880 Speaker 5: Remember he dominated, you know, like that's probably why. Yeah, yeah, it's. 901 00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 3: I remember him doing push ups at the Greenbriar, and 902 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,319 Speaker 3: I took note of how he does push ups, and 903 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 3: I do my push ups the same way. 904 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 4: How does he do push He's very aggressive doing his 905 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:47,760 Speaker 4: push ups. 906 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 3: You know, he is, he's flying, but he's doing a 907 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 3: full push up, you know, but he's doing an angry 908 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 3: push up as if he's pushing the earth, down from him, 909 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:58,320 Speaker 3: Away from him, Get away from the earth. 910 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,040 Speaker 5: You can tell. You can tell on TV he's a 911 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 5: very big guy, but when you see him in person, 912 00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 5: it's like his shoulders are, you know, eight ft wide. 913 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 5: He's He's enormous in person. 914 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 2: Big de likes to run sprints before every game. 915 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,640 Speaker 3: Up and Ted Johnson Willie McGinnis was like all those 916 00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:17,919 Speaker 3: Patriot linebackers from. 917 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 4: The early o's. They're frightening humans. They are. 918 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 3: They're way bigger than today's linebacker. 919 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 4: It's a different game. They didn't have to pass. 920 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 3: They could cover guys, but they didn't have to do 921 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,320 Speaker 3: it as much and as as in the same fashion 922 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 3: that these linebackers today have to. 923 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 5: He was also very good vable and maybe still is 924 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 5: at four square. 925 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 4: So I missed the four Square network. 926 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 2: All right, we're going to take a break. 927 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:45,839 Speaker 1: We come back one final segment. We will get into 928 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 1: some NFL trade deadline stuff. It's all, but you had 929 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:50,359 Speaker 1: to wait the whole show. 930 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 5: No, no, no, we covered the uniforms.

We've kind of covered it all, 938 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 1: but we do need to get to some trade deadline stuff. 939 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,440 Speaker 1: Not a lot of big news. I guess there were 940 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:20,279 Speaker 1: a few stories earlier. I think that was earlier in 941 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:21,760 Speaker 1: the day news. 942 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 3: But yeah, and Montese sweat because that means Washington's unloading, right, So. 943 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 2: That is exactly what that seemed like. 944 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,799 Speaker 1: So you got Leonard Williams to the Seahawks, Montes Weat 945 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 1: to the Bears, Chase Young to the forty nine ers, 946 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 1: and Arizona Cardinals. They sent quarterback Josh Dobbs and a 947 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:39,920 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four conditional seventh to. 948 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:40,920 Speaker 4: The Minicital Vikings. 949 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 1: That's big because with the Kirk Cousins Achilles injury, some 950 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 1: people were floating the idea of a mister case Keenum 951 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:49,920 Speaker 1: going to the VI And also. 952 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 5: It affects the Texans because the Cardinals are playing at 953 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:54,160 Speaker 5: the Browns this weekend. 954 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:57,080 Speaker 3: So yeah, and you're playing the Cardinals eventually, and you're 955 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,919 Speaker 3: playing the Browns eventually, right, so you might see dob 956 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 3: you never know. I mean, is there any guarantees see 957 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 3: Watson on Christmas Eve here at an RG stadium. There's 958 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:08,720 Speaker 3: no guarantee. You can't guarantee anything with him right now, 959 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 3: and Dobbs you can guarantee this. He's the go to 960 00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:15,800 Speaker 3: guy of the moment if you need an emergency quarterback. 961 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 3: And I guess the Cardinals feel like they'll go with Tuned, 962 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 3: They'll go with Murray if he's ready or whatever they're 963 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 3: gonna do. 964 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,480 Speaker 4: But Dobbs, I like him. I like him. 965 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 3: He's super smart, as we all know. Yeah, and he plays. Look, 966 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:33,880 Speaker 3: I was hoping that I was hoping he'd win that 967 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:37,319 Speaker 3: game against the Jags for the AFC South Championship last year. 968 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:39,800 Speaker 3: I don't know why, because I hate the Titans. 969 00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 6: Two. 970 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 3: I just didn't want to see the Jags get it 971 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:44,800 Speaker 3: because I'm bitter and shallow in a sports fashion. 972 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 4: But this is notable because he goes to the Minnesota. 973 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:51,320 Speaker 4: Is it gonna be Hall? Is it going to be Dobbs. 974 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:53,120 Speaker 4: It's probably Hall. We'll see how they handle it. 975 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:56,480 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm surprised they trade him, and I'm looking at. 976 00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,319 Speaker 5: Well yeah, Hall, they've said is going to start this 977 00:40:59,400 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 5: next game. 978 00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, but eventually oh yeah. 979 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:03,840 Speaker 2: But the Cardinals, it looks like Clayton Ton is supposed 980 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 2: to start this week. 981 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:05,920 Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, I'm not. 982 00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 2: Over Kyler Murray. 983 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,279 Speaker 1: He may still play, but now they're saying next week 984 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:10,040 Speaker 1: is more likely. 985 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,759 Speaker 2: It's a weird, weird situation in areas. 986 00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 3: Weird with all these guys, now, all these quarterbacks, Watson him, 987 00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:19,759 Speaker 3: you know, I watched now Jimmy Garoppolo is a little 988 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:22,840 Speaker 3: bit different. You know, we've been accustomed to him having 989 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 3: health issues, and he made it a per he made 990 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:29,319 Speaker 3: it appearance on Monday Night Football. It felt like a cameo, like, hey, 991 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:31,799 Speaker 3: Jimmy Garoppolo dropped and decided to play a game. 992 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:33,600 Speaker 4: And he was getting. 993 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:37,279 Speaker 3: Steamrolled by that Lions defense. I mean, they were just 994 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:40,840 Speaker 3: destroying the Raiders. It was a pleasure to watch. Some 995 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:43,080 Speaker 3: of that was because I was happy for Aaron Glenn, 996 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:47,200 Speaker 3: original Texan and defensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions that 997 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 3: he's having that kind of success. Plus it makes me 998 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:52,440 Speaker 3: feel like, you know what they're doing that why not 999 00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 3: the Texans eventually getting to that level? Now, what is 1000 00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:58,960 Speaker 3: that level? They're six and two great. They had a 1001 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:02,240 Speaker 3: great finish last year. They finished with a winning season, 1002 00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:05,920 Speaker 3: they didn't make the playoffs. Where they headed ultimately nobody knows, 1003 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:07,840 Speaker 3: but they're headed in the right direction. 1004 00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 4: It would appear. 1005 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:12,399 Speaker 1: Albert Reer was saying that the Patriots apparently never got 1006 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:17,120 Speaker 1: any calls on mac Jones or Zeke Elliott, So maybe maybe. 1007 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 4: They's good trade for mac Jones. Oh maybe the Vikings. 1008 00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:22,359 Speaker 1: Really, But like with what I mean, I don't even 1009 00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 1: understand how that would. 1010 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:26,760 Speaker 2: Case Keenum makes more more sense than mac Jones. 1011 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:27,800 Speaker 4: I guess he does. 1012 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:31,719 Speaker 3: But if I'm the Vikings, I'm wondering, am I guess the. 1013 00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:33,120 Speaker 4: Miracle Case Keenum? 1014 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:35,360 Speaker 3: Or am I getting a Case Keenum that's ready for 1015 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:38,960 Speaker 3: retirement soon or whatever? I think we see Case in practice. 1016 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 3: He's spry, he saw him in training camp. I think 1017 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:43,239 Speaker 3: he could still play. He could help a team that's 1018 00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:47,800 Speaker 3: good like that. But if I'm Nick Cassario Damiko Rans, 1019 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,280 Speaker 3: I'm thinking I'm not so eager to give up Case Keenum. 1020 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 3: I love him in the locker room if we have 1021 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:54,880 Speaker 3: to go there. Look, you've been really lucky. Knock Wood. 1022 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:55,440 Speaker 4: Don't want to. 1023 00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,840 Speaker 3: Get injuries at that position. Group a lot of people 1024 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:00,640 Speaker 3: talk to me about, Hey, you think Mills is going 1025 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,960 Speaker 3: to get traded. I'm thinking no, if there were wholesale 1026 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:06,799 Speaker 3: injuries at the quarterback position around the league, maybe there 1027 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 3: would be, you know, a great market for that. But 1028 00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,960 Speaker 3: I'm thinking you need your own insurance here, right. 1029 00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 4: You have a lot of possibility. 1030 00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:16,280 Speaker 5: Absolutely totally. 1031 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:17,200 Speaker 2: It's kind of nice. 1032 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:19,319 Speaker 1: I feel like the last few years we've hit the 1033 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:22,799 Speaker 1: trade deadline, it's been kind of stressful. Yeah, you know, 1034 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:24,200 Speaker 1: and it's like it was, it was kind of a 1035 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:28,200 Speaker 1: maybe it seems like a quieter trade deadline deadline because 1036 00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:31,640 Speaker 1: a the Texans didn't have a like a situation where 1037 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:33,440 Speaker 1: you thought, is Brandon Cook was going to be traded? 1038 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:34,320 Speaker 2: Is he not going to be traded? 1039 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:37,959 Speaker 4: To Show Watson the year before, year before was deal 1040 00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:39,280 Speaker 4: was on fire. 1041 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,640 Speaker 2: It seemed like something might happen. 1042 00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:43,719 Speaker 1: Up until the last minute, we were just like refreshing 1043 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:47,359 Speaker 1: Twitter ye for the app formally known as Twitter, over 1044 00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:48,640 Speaker 1: and over again. So it's kind of nice to not 1045 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,480 Speaker 1: have like be in a situation where you're just offloading 1046 00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:52,400 Speaker 1: players or players that. 1047 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 2: You have to get rid of. 1048 00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, because the real question was, wait a minute, you're 1049 00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:58,920 Speaker 3: not going to trade anybody right are you shopping for people? 1050 00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:01,600 Speaker 3: Are you going to go he's looking to add, Yeah, 1051 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:03,800 Speaker 3: but I would hate to part with draft capital. 1052 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 5: I don't know. 1053 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:06,839 Speaker 3: It's a hard thing to figure what are the team 1054 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 3: needs right now? Well, a lot of it has to 1055 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 3: do with who are you willing to re sign in 1056 00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:13,160 Speaker 3: the offseason among the veterans you picked up on the 1057 00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:16,879 Speaker 3: short term deals, combined with how's the draft working out 1058 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:19,080 Speaker 3: the last couple of drafts, last two or three drafts, 1059 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:20,439 Speaker 3: as far as guys who can. 1060 00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:21,799 Speaker 4: Be here for a while. And they got to weigh 1061 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:22,439 Speaker 4: all that out. 1062 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 3: But I don't know if it's worth to just get 1063 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 3: a player or two through trades you can get and 1064 00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:30,160 Speaker 3: Johnny likens it to dollar lottery tickets. Sometimes when you 1065 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:33,239 Speaker 3: sign a player off the street that had some good 1066 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:35,520 Speaker 3: things happened in his past, but he might be coming 1067 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,160 Speaker 3: back from an injury and that's why he's available, and 1068 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:39,960 Speaker 3: then you see what you can get with those kinds 1069 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:40,360 Speaker 3: of guys. 1070 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:44,359 Speaker 5: Damius Thomas is at the biggest Texans draft deadline deal 1071 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:45,319 Speaker 5: that you guys can think of about. 1072 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:47,279 Speaker 4: That's the one that's maybe the only one I can 1073 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:47,680 Speaker 4: think of. 1074 00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:49,800 Speaker 3: You know, that was a big one in twenty eighteen, 1075 00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:51,719 Speaker 3: when they lost Will Fuller and they had to go 1076 00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:54,440 Speaker 3: for they traded a fourth for Damarius Thomas. And you know, 1077 00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 3: he was a player that everybody knew, right, he was 1078 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:57,799 Speaker 3: a pretty big name. 1079 00:44:57,960 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 2: And then he goes back to Denver. 1080 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, his first game as a Texans catches a touchdown. 1081 00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:05,440 Speaker 1: It was weird because he had always been a Bronco. 1082 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:07,640 Speaker 1: He seemed kind of shell shocked that he got traded. 1083 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 1: Seemed like it came as a surprise. 1084 00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 5: It was such a weird week for him too, to 1085 00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:11,839 Speaker 5: go back like that. 1086 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:13,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, and he'd spent his whole career there. I think 1087 00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:15,239 Speaker 1: he thought he was going to retire there. He'd had 1088 00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:17,840 Speaker 1: no inkling it was going to happen, you know, And 1089 00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:19,560 Speaker 1: then he goes back, has to play there. It was 1090 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:22,040 Speaker 1: kind of an emotional game for him. It was great 1091 00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:24,400 Speaker 1: for the Texans because losing Wilfuller, I think everybody was 1092 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,279 Speaker 1: dooming gloom, like, what's going to happen at this wide 1093 00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:29,400 Speaker 1: receiver group, the late Marius to the late Damarius Thomas. 1094 00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 1: I got to interview him too, and he had such 1095 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:33,879 Speaker 1: a great story. So yeah, but we did go back 1096 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:35,879 Speaker 1: to Denver and they had to welcome back to Marius sign, 1097 00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:38,280 Speaker 1: which I was like, they made that really fast. 1098 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:39,920 Speaker 5: Hey, we put a man on the moon in nineteen 1099 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:43,440 Speaker 5: sixty nine, we can make a sign for somebody too high. 1100 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:46,040 Speaker 3: I don't know, Man, these printing costs and these printing 1101 00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 3: turnarounds are tough. A man on the moon is one thing. 1102 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 1: But they didn't have to do m Maybe they had 1103 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:53,680 Speaker 1: to do Amazon Prime like same day shipping to get 1104 00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 1: that there. 1105 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:56,400 Speaker 4: Maybe to get it. I have a friend and this 1106 00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:57,319 Speaker 4: is embarrassing. 1107 00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:00,680 Speaker 3: He is one of the people who thinks that we 1108 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:01,759 Speaker 3: didn't really go to them. 1109 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:03,319 Speaker 2: There's a lot of people like that. 1110 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:03,879 Speaker 5: Mark.
