It's all so large. 33 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 3: It's bigger to us than any one of these games. 34 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 1: Really. 35 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 3: Now if Tmusa admitted to the quarters in the semis, 36 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 3: now we're talking about a different dimension. 37 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: You know. 38 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 3: I once had one of my biggest arguments on the 39 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 3: air with Rich Lord about World Cup versus the Tour 40 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 3: de France, because he was really into the Tour de France. 41 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 3: He was watching it every day with Lance Armstrong was unsullied, 42 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 3: you know, when Lance was still going good and before 43 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 3: the scandal and everything, when he was winning what was 44 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 3: it seven or something like that. Rich would watch all 45 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 3: that stuff and it was cool, it was compelling. 46 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: I get it. 47 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 3: But I said, hey, if Team USA ever makes it 48 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 3: to a final, never mind winning, it makes a Cup final, it. 49 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 1: Will yeah, it will eclipse this by ten. 50 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 3: He said, no way, like he didn't agree with me 51 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 3: and said, rich making it to a World Cup final? 52 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: Think about that? 53 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 3: Making it to a final, Yep, that's ridiculous. Can you 54 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 3: imagine making it to the semifinals? Oh my gosh, I 55 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 3: mean got into the quarterfinals. I was getting a team 56 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 3: real USA nineteen eighty Olympic Hockey vibe almost because the 57 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 3: way the crowd was in San Francisco, Santa Clair after 58 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 3: that win and John Denver and everything. Had they been 59 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 3: able to win, and there was no way that was 60 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 3: going to happen. But had they been able to be Belgium, 61 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 3: you'd have more of that and then gosh, could you 62 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 3: imagine winning a quarterfinal game? How special that would be? 63 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 3: Oh my goodness. Anyway, it is what it is. But 64 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 3: I'm so ready for the NFL.

Preseason isn't for everybody. It's for it's sharpening 91 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 2: the tools for your starters and your guys.

Got to go show it, got to 108 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 3: go prove it right now, and I love that stuff. 109 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 3: Can't wait to the Mertz with more playing time in 110 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 3: these three games, j is gonna get some obviously, but 111 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 3: not a ton, and Mills will get a big chunk 112 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 3: as well. Look, we don't have four quarterbacks this year, 113 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 3: right last year today. 114 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,799 Speaker 2: I'm just saying that what you once you get into camp. 115 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 2: I don't think people understand how much quarterbacks actually throw. 116 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,119 Speaker 4: The football during training camp. 117 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 2: There's been a lot. I mean you just think of 118 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 2: individuals and all that individuals they're throwing routes on air. 119 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 2: Then they get to seven on seven and they get 120 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 2: the team reps, and then afterwards they might be throwing 121 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 2: the ball with receivers, there are a lot there are 122 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 2: a lot of bullets coming out of the holster, if 123 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. I think they're like what 124 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,799 Speaker 2: they have though. Yeah, I'm not saying that they don't. 125 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 2: I'm just saying that you may you may want a 126 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 2: fourth I mean it depends camp arm. Yeah, camp arm, Yeah, 127 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 2: the camp arm. Camp arm for the games yeah. 128 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, as much as anything, right exactly, because 129 00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 3: you don't want a guy who can play in these games, 130 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 3: but you don't want to take get up a lot 131 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 3: of practice reps unless you had high hopes for. 132 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 2: I mean, Graham tweets an ankle, are you going back 133 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 2: to Davis for the rest of them? 134 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:05,840 Speaker 1: No? 135 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 3: No, if Graham tweaks anything, if anything, guys tweak anything, 136 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,359 Speaker 3: you're bringing in another guy automatically because you have to 137 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 3: make it through. 138 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 2: But what I'm saying, like, during a preseason game, if 139 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 2: Graham tweaks an ankle, you're going back to Davis. 140 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: You have to hand off, you know, to keep him. 141 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:22,599 Speaker 2: I mean, because look, Davis becomes massively important for this team, is. 142 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: We We talked about it last year. 143 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 2: We hoped that we wouldn't have to go to that 144 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 2: level that Cjmis stay healthy for seventeen games, but it 145 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 2: just it didn't happen, and for a lot of teams 146 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 2: it doesn't happen. And so Davis came in, went three 147 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 2: and oho in three of the most important games to 148 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 2: kind of kick off really the streak at that point, 149 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,559 Speaker 2: and he played pretty well. 150 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: Where are you if you don't have Davis Mills. He's 151 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: looked good. 152 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 3: Look OTA's you don't want to make too big a 153 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 3: deal out of it, but he has looked good in OTAs. 154 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 3: He doesn't have to go up against Will Anderson, he 155 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 3: has to go up against the twos, right, and against 156 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 3: the twos, Davis Mills looks like an NFL starting quarterback, 157 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 3: no question. The best he's ever looked that time of year. 158 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 3: That was Mills in twenty twenty six. So I'm not 159 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 3: here to declare him, you know, trade bait for two 160 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 3: number ones and going to the Pro Bowl for his 161 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 3: future employer. I'm not here to say that. I'm just 162 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 3: here to say factually in my eyes anyway, and I 163 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 3: think you would agree, this is the best he's ever 164 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,239 Speaker 3: looked in the off season as a Texan. 165 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: Full stop, Yeah, full stop? Are we tired of people 166 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: saying full stop. Is that over? Yeah, it's probably over, Oh, darling, 167 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: I saw it. 168 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 2: I saw somebody posting tweeting about this the other day, 169 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 2: some of the things they want people to stop saying, Oh, 170 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 2: give me a couple, give me a couple, And I 171 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 2: wish I could.

You've lost two 342 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 3: at home and at Indy. 343 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not happening. 344 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 3: It's not happening, man, I hope because last year it 345 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 3: was close loss to Tampa in the middle of two 346 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 3: road games, and the Jacksonville gave. 347 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 1: You just screwed it up badly. You made you made 348 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: mistakes that game. 349 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 2: They were all winnable, all all winnable. You couldn't score 350 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,359 Speaker 2: from the one yard line against the Bucks. 351 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: Uh a touchdown? 352 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 2: You fumble the ball in the red zone on the 353 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 2: final drive, uh jack turnover turned over there. 354 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: Yeah. 355 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 4: So you'd think you'd think at. 356 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 2: Home, two of the three not happening again, you think, 357 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 2: but it is, Josh Allen, Joe Burrow. 358 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 3: I think it's a split at least, and you go 359 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 3: to Indy and I think you beat Indy. 360 00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think so. I think you beat Indye week 361 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 1: a little bit. Here's a right to point. 362 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 2: Can Stroud and the offense get back on track. This 363 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 2: is a very interesting sentence that Kevin Patra wrote, and 364 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 2: this was to my point yesterday we were talking about this. 365 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 2: Near the end of the paragraph, he says, the difference 366 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 2: in Stroud's production with and without Tank Dell in the 367 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 2: lineup is stark? 368 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: Okay, does he have the numbers? 369 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 2: What sort of shape will the receiver be in after 370 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 2: so much time away and Canny stay healthy? 371 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 5: It is? 372 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 2: It definitely is Stark, and it was to my point yesterday. 373 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 2: We talked about this yesterday when Mike Clay of ESPN 374 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 2: did his projections, he had Tank Dell playing seventeen games, 375 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 2: catching twenty four passes, and I went, Nope, If Tank 376 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 2: Dell is going to play in seventeen games, A, he's 377 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 2: healthy enough to play in seventeen games. 378 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 1: B he's getting more than two targets and. 379 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 3: He's got forty minimum at a minimum. If he plays seventeen, 380 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 3: he played seventeen forty. He's getting his touches. 381 00:16:59,160 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 4: Now. 382 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 3: I don't know what happen as everybody else, I don't 383 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:05,159 Speaker 3: know how they divvy up the time, the snaps, the 384 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 3: opportunities yards per round whatever that is. No, but you know, 385 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 3: we were making fun of that. What was it two 386 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 3: weeks ago? We were out of yards to a route 387 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 3: fun fest. But I thought about that stat, Boar, and 388 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 3: I thought it says a lot about what your team 389 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 3: thinks of you too. You're running a route. Are we 390 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 3: going to get the ball to you? Or are you 391 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 3: just running a route to occupied defenders. 392 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 4: Just to be one of eleven? 393 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,639 Speaker 1: Yes? Yeah, okay, that happens a lot anyway. 394 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, so Tank Dell, that's the point for number two. 395 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:41,959 Speaker 2: Number three, rich defense gets richer. Here's Kevin Patrick. Can 396 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 2: the most ferocious defense in the league actually be better? 397 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 2: In twenty twenty six, Edge monsters Will Anderson the Neil 398 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,879 Speaker 2: Hunter are stowing their primes. Derek Stingley Kamoria last year, 399 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,199 Speaker 2: Jalen Petrie and Kaylen Bullock form a lockdown back end, 400 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,879 Speaker 2: and as he's ouse Shire still patrols the middle. Texan's 401 00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 2: upgraded safety spot Reblanket Ship. Second round pick Caden McDonald 402 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 2: could play significant role ont of the gate alongside Sheldon 403 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 2: Rankins and Tommy Togy in the middle of the D line. 404 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,360 Speaker 2: If McDonald turns out to be a steal, this defense 405 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 2: will have zero weaknesses. 406 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 4: That's a mouthful zero week. That is a mouthful. 407 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:17,239 Speaker 1: Dang well. 408 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 2: To calm people down, keep in mind, let me repeat that. 409 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 2: If Caden McDonald now I insert a rookie playing a 410 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 2: different defensive scheme than he did in Ohio State, So 411 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 2: there are a couple things that got to come to fruition. 412 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 2: If that guy turns out to be a steal, this 413 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 2: defense will have zero weaknesses. 414 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:39,239 Speaker 4: I don't disagree with that. 415 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: I already like though him being you know, solid. 416 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I'm not saying he's not going to be 417 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:47,880 Speaker 4: I'm not starting. 418 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 3: Okay, who doesn't need to you know this. I'm not 419 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 3: telling you anything you don't know. But the other cast 420 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 3: of characters that they have get into the rotation. Now 421 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 3: here's the thing about everything he's writing about this defense. 422 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 3: Stars in this building include those who are behind the 423 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 3: doors of the training room and the wellness setter. And 424 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 3: how this team stays healthy because this Texans team, I 425 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 3: hate to say they got lucky last year. A lot 426 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 3: of this is luck, but much of it is the 427 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 3: guys I mentioned, and how the players themselves take care 428 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,359 Speaker 3: of their bodies. And however they're practicing because they clearly 429 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 3: practice with intensity, but not too much intensity where they 430 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 3: lose players on a practice field or on game day 431 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 3: because they were too intense in a practice field. 432 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:34,640 Speaker 1: There's a weird tear. 433 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 3: Because this defense stayed healthy by and large last year, 434 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 3: and you have to have that happen again. You know, 435 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 3: this offense is not ready to carry the football team 436 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 3: and you cannot take too many dings and dents on 437 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 3: this side of the football, the defensive side of the ball. 438 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 3: So let's just see. I like what he's saying. The 439 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 3: rich do get richer on paper. Look on the field, 440 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 3: they're ridiculous. On paper, they look even better. How about that? 441 00:19:58,359 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 4: And I think there's more depth. 442 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 2: I think that's what Kay McDonald definitely adds to the 443 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:04,719 Speaker 2: depth on the inside. 444 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 4: You know, nobody mentions Logan Hall. I mean Logan Hall. 445 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 2: I think could end up being a factor if he's 446 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 2: fully healthy, whether it's inside outside, he can give you 447 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 2: kind of the Nico Autry kind of situation. 448 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 4: Jalen Smith coming back. 449 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 2: Jay Rock's healthy, he can be a third cover corner 450 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 2: when you need to go with different iterations of nicol 451 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:22,919 Speaker 2: or diamond your secondary. 452 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 4: You know, Jalen Reed coming back for a second year. 453 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 2: So to me, the depth is also there the one 454 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,719 Speaker 2: area where the depth is really gonna have to step up. 455 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 2: And this is where to me, as you know, I 456 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,640 Speaker 2: get very granular, you and I do. Dylan Horton and 457 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 2: Dominie Robinson will be two guys to watch a lot 458 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 2: in camp. 459 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:43,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, well you already like Horton and so I think 460 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:44,160 Speaker 3: Horton did a lot. 461 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: I think Horton's good last year. Nobody talked about. 462 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 3: So Dominique Robinson is he as good as Barnett for 463 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 3: this football correct? 464 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:53,399 Speaker 1: Now? Barnett. 465 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 3: Look, I don't know what they saw weekend week out, 466 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 3: but you know Barnett popped. 467 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: He showed up at big moments. 468 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 3: Now, I imagine there's a way to criticize certain things 469 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 3: for all players. You know, on this play, this didn't happen, 470 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 3: or that did this defense did great. Though, I'm not 471 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:14,640 Speaker 3: I'm not criticizing dead shot. That's his nickname, right, yeah, 472 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 3: dead shot. He looks like dead shot. I'm not criticizing 473 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 3: him at all. No, no, no, I'm just saying they did 474 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 3: what they did for a reason. That's the nickname, and 475 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 3: they brought in Robinson, they have the other guys. 476 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 1: Does Ali Gay make this fifty three? 477 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what he's improved. I remember when they 478 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 2: when he came here as a rookie. I remember thinking, 479 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 2: you know what, he's tight in his hips. He plays hard, 480 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 2: there's a lot of effort there. But but he's really 481 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 2: come along. I think that's gonna to me. That's one 482 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 2: of the more interesting battles in camp. 483 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 1: He's here for a reason. 484 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 3: There's no doubt. They brought him him. They brought him back, 485 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 3: and you and I love him because what did he do? 486 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 3: Did we tell this story? We interviewed him at that 487 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 3: internal media day, Yeah, we did, and he was delightful, 488 00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 3: really interesting. 489 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 1: So I know we've aired that that's worth re aer. 490 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 3: Yeah that was really weird, I told the guys because 491 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 3: we shot all those but we're not posting every single video. 492 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,399 Speaker 3: We're airing every single video interview. But I said, you 493 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 3: might want to look at Oli Gate. I know he's 494 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 3: not going to break the internet. It's not like he'll 495 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 3: get Kardashian numbers. 496 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 1: His story is so good. He was really. 497 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 3: Compelling talking about his background and the next day he's 498 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:24,879 Speaker 3: walking off the practice field, and we're removed slightly from 499 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 3: the parade of players going because we're waiting on a 500 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 3: player to interview. But he literally walks over literally I'm 501 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 3: using it properly walks over to us and shakes our 502 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 3: hands like hi guys, Hi guys, and then walks away. 503 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 2: He then sought us out for every ota and then 504 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 2: he can't practice after that. 505 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 3: I just think the world of the guy. How do 506 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 3: you not fall in love with a guy like that? 507 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 3: So that's off the field stuff, clearly, but they like that. Yep, 508 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 3: you can show some stuff on the field with that. 509 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:51,120 Speaker 1: That's a good combo. 510 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 2: His only career sacks against the Texans. 511 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 1: It's wild. Okay. 512 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 4: I'm gonna give you a three four Minneapolis Colts. 513 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: Okay, please. 514 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 2: Number one, how will Daniel Jones look and return from injury? 515 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 1: That's a I mean, that's the story. Number two overall 516 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 1: roster health out Pierce. 517 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 2: He's dealing with that situation, you know, deforce Buckner and 518 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 2: uh saws. 519 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: Gardner missed parts at the end of the year. Big 520 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 1: part of this. Yeah, so that's big. 521 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 2: Here's one that I this one, okay, go, I didn't 522 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 2: realize this. Jonathan Taylor's future in Indy. Ooh, here's what 523 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 2: Kevin Patrick says. Outside of health concerns hovering over Colts camp, 524 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 2: the future of Jonathan Taylor is an interesting question. The 525 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 2: twenty seven year old running back is in the final 526 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 2: year of his contract. The situation is far less contentious 527 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 2: than the last time he saw a new contract, which 528 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 2: saw him conduct a hold in until he got paid. 529 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 2: When asked about his contract this summer, Taylor was cordial 530 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,400 Speaker 2: about the state of affairs, but made it known he'd 531 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 2: like to continue getting paid in Indy. Could the situation 532 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:03,400 Speaker 2: turns sour again, will the running back decide the ratchet 533 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:07,360 Speaker 2: things up if no extension comes before camp. Perhaps he's 534 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,679 Speaker 2: waiting for a Bijon and Jamier Gibbs to reset the 535 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 2: market again before making his next. 536 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 3: Play, and they will have no choice, no choice but 537 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 3: to pay. 538 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 1: Him if they want to, if they want an offense. 539 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 3: I'm not saying these all they got, but Johnny, he's 540 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 3: the straw that stirs that drink. That when you think 541 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,399 Speaker 3: of the Colts these days, you don't think of the quarterback. 542 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 3: You don't think of DeForest Buckner or Sauce Gardner. You 543 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 3: think of Jonathan Taylor absolutely and to that end. You 544 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 3: don't make a deal for a mod Gardner the middle 545 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 3: of last year Sauce and then no ahmad you, Then 546 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 3: he will be he will have to earn Sauce back. 547 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 4: He's a mod. 548 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,400 Speaker 2: You're calling, yeah, a mot until he earns Sauce back. 549 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:55,440 Speaker 2: Because guess who gave Sauce his nickname of sauce. Sauce, Well, 550 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 2: we're taking I'm taking it away from you because you 551 00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 2: haven't played like Sauce. 552 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: When you play like Sauce, I'll call you Sauce. 553 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 4: But you're a mott. 554 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 3: He made top ten defensive players in the league or something, 555 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 3: top ten corners. Okay, uh Seth and yeah, they were 556 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,359 Speaker 3: talking about were talking about it, and I thought he's 557 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 3: so overrated. 558 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: Look, I'm not saying it's a bad player. Is he 559 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 1: worth two to one? Hell no? Do they get hammers 560 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 1: enough on this? 561 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:22,880 Speaker 2: But my point is, you don't make that deal, yeah, 562 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 2: and then turn around and trade your franchise running back, 563 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:29,160 Speaker 2: your offensive key, go to piece the next year. 564 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 1: You don't do that. You don't give her two ones 565 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: and then go trade Jonathan Taylor. You have no choice 566 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: but to keep him happy. 567 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:38,439 Speaker 3: If not, you're trading you're starting trade pieces, you're starting 568 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 3: to rebuild. 569 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 1: Everything's stripping it down Jaguars. 570 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 2: Okay, number one, these are storylines for training camp. 571 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 3: All right, so let me predict. Okay, this is my 572 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 3: top pick running game number one. Backfield shake up very good. 573 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 3: Yeah number one, No, no or at Gin or however 574 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 3: he e Chin but there's a Bichen never mind. I'm 575 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 3: not going to get into the pronunciation wars. But without Travis, yeah, 576 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:14,400 Speaker 3: it's big. It was productive, very You don't just throw 577 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 3: guys out there. 578 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: You know, we thought Bigsby was going to be the guy. 579 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 1: Where's Bigsby? God? 580 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 3: So yeah, backfield production huge because what does Trevor Lawrence 581 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 3: need some of that? 582 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:27,719 Speaker 1: Please? 583 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 3: Travis helped him out a lot. Yep, you know, taking 584 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 3: some of the heat off. 585 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 4: Yep. 586 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:37,360 Speaker 3: I think you give the Texans last year Itchin's production. 587 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 3: Oh what kind of offense is this? 588 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,119 Speaker 1: With CJ. Strouss better? Certainly better. 589 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,200 Speaker 3: We can gauge it however you want, but you have 590 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 3: to all agree it would have been better with that 591 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 3: kind of running attack. Okay, so you're right our company 592 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 3: excluded you know, Nick Chubbs, sure he's not here, but 593 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 3: Woody and everything. Look, they were trying their best to 594 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 3: put together what they could, but the Giants got it. 595 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 2: Going with it chin So number one field shake up, 596 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 2: very good? All right, there's two more. What are they. 597 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 3: Missing on defense? The Devin Lloyd. 598 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 4: Bingo number three? Okay, Lloyd's replacement. 599 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 2: Kevin Patrick says the Jags saw Devin Lloyd leaving free 600 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 2: agency and didn't replace his production in the Anthony Campaniles 601 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 2: defense via free agency or early in the draft. 602 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 1: The decision puts Ventro Miller. 603 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:28,400 Speaker 2: Now, Ventro Miller can play twenty twenty four Week four. 604 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 4: He dominated the game. He was tremendous. 605 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:31,719 Speaker 5: Uh. 606 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: But they have two other guys that. 607 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 2: He mentions that are in line to potentially start, an 608 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 2: undrafted linebacker from twenty twenty five and a twenty twenty 609 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 2: six seventh rounder. 610 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: So that's huge. So yeah, you got two of them. 611 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 1: What's the middle one? 612 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,119 Speaker 3: The middle one is the way who they lose in 613 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 3: the secondary? 614 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 2: Johnny, Well, you're kind of you're kind of all about it, 615 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 2: but it's both secondary and wide. 616 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 1: Oh, Travis Hunter. Of course, that's what they'll say. 617 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 3: Okay, before you read the Travis Hudders think, I'm going 618 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 3: to give you mine, which is more of a positive 619 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 3: and is it Texans caution light? Liam Kohne year two. 620 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 3: A little worried about this because how do they end 621 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 3: the season the regular season anyways on a tremendous winning 622 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 3: streak following the loss here? Okay, they won eight in 623 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 3: a row following the loss here? How good is this coach? 624 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,679 Speaker 3: Have they really found the guy who has all the tools? 625 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 5: Now? 626 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 3: I know they lost to the Bills in the postseason 627 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 3: at home, but is he going to take that year 628 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 3: one to year two coaching genre and really turn them 629 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 3: into something special? Here and Trevor included, I don't want 630 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 3: to see it. That is my caution light with the Jackson. 631 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 3: In fact, we should do a whole caution light. 632 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 1: Sh it's good. I think Liam Cohen is really really good. 633 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,479 Speaker 2: But Doug Peterson had a similar type situation with Trevor 634 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 2: and it didn't stick. 635 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 3: It not only did not stick, it slid out of control, 636 00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 3: which is what I'm hoping for. But I'm a little 637 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 3: concerned that it's not going to be the case. How 638 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 3: many times can this happen? How many years can the 639 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 3: Titans stay bad? How many years can we get good luck? 640 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 3: With the Colts quarterback situation? 641 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: Imploding on them. 642 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm here for all of it, folks, but 643 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 3: it's been really enjoyable, and at some point one of 644 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 3: these three other teams they're gonna put something together. In fact, 645 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 3: we do Texans didn't even win the division last year, 646 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 3: but it all worked out better anyway. 647 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. 648 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 4: Number two, what will Travis Hunter's role be? And then 649 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 4: they go into all this. 650 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 1: I don't think that's as huge a concern. 651 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 3: I think it's more like an It'll be Travis, yes, right, 652 00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 3: that's the storyline, Okay, But as far as team performance, 653 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 3: they'll find something for him to do. Did they overpay 654 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 3: for him? Absolutely, But it's not like he's not a 655 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 3: good football player. They can't fight a role for you. 656 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 2: They'll find something that he is going to master. It's 657 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 2: just really really good at it. I don't know if 658 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 2: I have valued it as such. 659 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 3: It's like the Colts trading two ones for sauce. Yeah, 660 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I forgot we removed the nickname. The Jags 661 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,720 Speaker 3: moving up to get Travis Hunters the same kind of thing. 662 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 3: To me, It's like, what do you do it? You 663 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 3: don't need to do that. But both teams did things 664 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 3: that didn't quite make sense to me. Now we'll see 665 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 3: all works out. 666 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, Titans. Here are the three. 667 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 2: Number one cam Ward can Ward, very good. Number two 668 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 2: cam Roard throws two a as he says, a better 669 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 2: receiving core. 670 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 1: Than he had. Hard not to do well. 671 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 2: He had I am an ore and he had DK 672 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 2: two rookies last year and they played pretty well. 673 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 4: Calvin Ridley, who I've never been a fan of. 674 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 1: Hot and cold, Hot and cold. 675 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 2: But they added Wandelle Robinson out of Carnell Tate, So 676 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 2: on paper it looks better better, Okay, but I just 677 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 2: don't think. I think Ridley that's somebody that'll end up moving. 678 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 2: And number three and I think this actually when it 679 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 2: comes to things I'm concerned about, and look, Cam Warren, 680 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 2: I'm concerned about, but this defense does a decent job 681 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 2: handling quarterbacks, et cetera. Number three, speaking of defense, will 682 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 2: the improved defense on pay Upper translate to the field 683 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 2: and Patrick goes through here and he says from NFL 684 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 2: dot Com, he says, I love adding John Franklin Myers 685 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 2: next to Jeffrey Simmons. That that's one I'm really concerned about. 686 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 2: He says, But is there enough on the edges they 687 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 2: did go trade for Jermaine Johnson. Okay, I mean, good player, 688 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 2: and they drafted Keldric Faulk. But is he a permanent 689 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 2: outside guy who knows Anthony Hill Junior? Can he be 690 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 2: immediately ready to step into the middle of the defense? 691 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 2: Dex to Cedric Gray. Cedric Gray was very very good 692 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 2: last year. The secondary is horrendous last season. And so 693 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 2: the Titans went out and signed three different corners, one 694 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 2: A Nickel, Cordell Flott, Alante Taylor, Joshua Williams. Those guys 695 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 2: were okay, but Tennessee had to go pay. They had 696 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 2: to go pay and bring in corners. They had to. Uh, 697 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 2: so they did that. I don't know if I love it, 698 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 2: but here's the sentence that worries me. I trust Sala 699 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:00,479 Speaker 2: to know how he wants his d to run and 700 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 2: to get the most out of his players. And that, 701 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 2: my friends, I think is the one thing that we 702 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 2: have to be wary of in Tennessee, and that is 703 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 2: Robert Sola. I think Robert Sala is a very good coach, 704 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 2: a great background. I think the players will respond. I 705 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 2: think it's gonna be destination watching when the Jags play 706 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 2: the Titans and Liam Cohen is going against Robert Salad 707 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 2: in a division twice a year. That's gonna be awesome 708 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 2: after their whole ted at Tay in San Francisco Santa 709 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 2: Clara last year. So yeah, I think Robert sala is 710 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 2: I don't know if i'd say he's a quote unquote storyline, 711 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 2: but I see what Patrick's saying here is will the 712 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 2: d will the defense with all those new pieces? Can 713 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,960 Speaker 2: Robert sala get them to play at that level early enough? 714 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 2: Because he eventually will. 715 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 3: Zack seven games with Zach Wilson in New York, which 716 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 3: makes him look like web you Bank compared to some 717 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 3: of the performances the Jets have had got you. 718 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 4: Yeah. Absolutely, I mean that's. 719 00:32:58,080 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 3: I give sala a lot of credit. I want to 720 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:01,959 Speaker 3: to see him get another gig. I'm on the record, 721 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 3: no surprise. I wanted to see him go to the NFC, 722 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 3: not the freaking division. 723 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 1: I like the guy why Robert Why. 724 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 2: Well that the job was available and then he took it, 725 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 2: and there's potential there for him to turn that thing around. 726 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 2: If cam Ward plays some turnover free football, does some 727 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 2: play creating like he does. 728 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 4: That's gonna be a tough team. I think before too long. 729 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 2: I think if if, like you said, one of these 730 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:28,959 Speaker 2: teams has got to step up. I mean, I do 731 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 2: think the Jaguars, if they stand in path with Liam Cohen, 732 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 2: they'll be good and good consistently. I think it's the 733 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 2: Titans before the Colts. I think the Titans take that 734 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 2: next step before it's the Colts. I think the Colts 735 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 2: are just they're I don't know if they got the 736 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 2: right mix. Now if Daniel Jones all that in bag 737 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:48,280 Speaker 2: of chips'll win some games, win some games, but that's 738 00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 2: the point. 739 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 4: They're gonna win games. Just get to eight nine, nine 740 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 4: to eight. 741 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, but you just don't want to be one of 742 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: those victims. 743 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 5: That's right. 744 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, that's that hurt your standing. 745 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 3: You might still win the division, but you just don't 746 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:00,960 Speaker 3: want to take those Dan and look we've seen it. 747 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 1: I agree. So I agree. 748 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 4: That's why Week three, most important game in season, gotta 749 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 4: win it. 750 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,960 Speaker 2: Indy absolutely gotta keep the treatin division game. 751 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 3: You know what happens weeks one two, I'm gonna be 752 00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,360 Speaker 3: in here Colts week all fired up, no doubt will be. 753 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:15,239 Speaker 1: You definitely will be. 754 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 2: Fired up, coming up next to guy that I think 755 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 2: is gonna be fired up during training camp in preseason 756 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,399 Speaker 2: to make this fifty three man roster and the way 757 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,959 Speaker 2: he performed in OTAs, this guy's got a shot.

Veterer's reported to twenty eight. Typically 769 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 2: that means that twenty ninth is the start of camp. 770 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:04,919 Speaker 2: We'll see, we'll see how it all goes.

I thought when he was at Washington State, 777 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:34,839 Speaker 2: I thought he was absolutely tremendous, and then went over 778 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 2: Texas Tech thinking it as much run. But I remember 779 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 2: as Fresno State years is Washington State years and he 780 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 2: was fun to talk to.

So as the season was going on, man, 824 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:32,920 Speaker 6: I was trying to learn as much as possible. But 825 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:34,919 Speaker 6: it is a little harder when the season is going 826 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 6: on and everybody knows everything and everything is moving fast paced. 827 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 6: So you know, for me to be where I am 828 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 6: right now, OTA is just getting the reset and like 829 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,319 Speaker 6: listening to the things that I was hearing during the season, 830 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 6: I'm like, oh, okay, that makes sense now, you know 831 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:50,440 Speaker 6: what I'm saying.

We got two of the 845 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:18,759 Speaker 6: best corners, two of the best safeties. You know, our 846 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 6: whole defense is just crazy, so iron and sharp and iron, 847 00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. So they knew what it 848 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 6: was with me when I came in, and you know 849 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 6: what I'm saying, I'm trying to get them better, and 850 00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:28,879 Speaker 6: I'm glad that they're trying to get me better. 851 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,480 Speaker 3: So yeah, because you're not trying to make them look 852 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:33,480 Speaker 3: good out there, and they're trying to be as competitive 853 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:34,800 Speaker 3: as possibly exactly. 854 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 6: And you know it's during the season as well, so 855 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:38,279 Speaker 6: you know, I'm trying to trying to, you know what 856 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:39,400 Speaker 6: I'm saying, not do too much to. 857 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:42,000 Speaker 5: Every nobody's getting hurt or anything.

You're a very confident guy. But 865 00:38:57,760 --> 00:38:59,920 Speaker 2: then you get to the NFL and it's a different 866 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,439 Speaker 2: confidence you got to have. But as you're going against Kamar, 867 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,960 Speaker 2: you're going against Sting, you go against those guys and 868 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:06,840 Speaker 2: you're having success, How does that kind of play on 869 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,799 Speaker 2: your confidence? When you're having some success against those. 870 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 6: Guys right now, it builds it tremendously. Like I said, man, 871 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 6: there's two probos, two all pro corners out there, and 872 00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 6: anytime that you're able to get a catch on two 873 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 6: of the best corners that it should boosts up your 874 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 6: confidence tremendously because you know what I'm saying, Like, if 875 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:23,680 Speaker 6: you could do that here, imagine what you can do 876 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 6: on the field and not not not to talk down 877 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 6: on the top that's in an NFL, but like you 878 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:29,759 Speaker 6: know what I'm saying, just like, imagine what you could 879 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 6: really do out there on the field and you're going 880 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 6: against other teams and stuff like that. So, man, it 881 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,759 Speaker 6: boosts a big confidence into you know how I play 882 00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 6: and everything. 883 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,839 Speaker 3: It's got to be such a different mindset because here 884 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:43,120 Speaker 3: you are a pro last season I'm talking about and 885 00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,960 Speaker 3: in college you used to being Hey, I'm. 886 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:47,640 Speaker 1: I'm a producer. Here right, I make plays. 887 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:50,120 Speaker 3: I'm an earner, you know, and here you are like 888 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 3: just helping the other guys get better. But it's it's 889 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:55,920 Speaker 3: such an important role. But sets up this year and 890 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 3: this offense. You weren't here at this time last year, 891 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 3: but it's said to be a lot of steps ahead 892 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 3: from where they were. 893 00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:05,080 Speaker 6: Last even, like, like I said, I could see a 894 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:06,920 Speaker 6: night and day even as we're going through the season, 895 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 6: like you could tell that you know, there was some 896 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:11,239 Speaker 6: pickup during the season. Right, everybody's trying to learn a 897 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:13,960 Speaker 6: new system and everything. But now that everybody understands and 898 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:15,799 Speaker 6: that you could tell like it's night and day like 899 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 6: in terms of when I got here to now, you 900 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. So, man, this offense is taking 901 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 6: tremendous steps, you know what I'm saying, into the right 902 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,359 Speaker 6: right direction, And man, everybody should expect the big season 903 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:27,920 Speaker 6: out of the offense. You know, you hear so much 904 00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:29,759 Speaker 6: about the defense, but man, the offense. You know, we're 905 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:30,920 Speaker 6: trying to really churner it around. 906 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 2: So Josh from you know, being in the league now 907 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 2: going into your second year, so have been around too 908 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 2: too much. But everybody when we ask, okay, what do 909 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:42,240 Speaker 2: you want to improve on it. I want to improve 910 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:45,040 Speaker 2: on everything, but it's just something specific that you're going 911 00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:47,279 Speaker 2: into year two. You feel like, you know what I 912 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 2: want to work on. You know, I want to work 913 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,120 Speaker 2: on my footwork and work on my releases, you know, 914 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,960 Speaker 2: catch the ball, get vertical, those kind of things. What 915 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:56,000 Speaker 2: do you feel like is the one thing or maybe 916 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:57,880 Speaker 2: a couple of things that you really want to in 917 00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 2: training camp? You want to focus Look, we want to 918 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 2: you know, you want to catch every ball. You understand that, 919 00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:04,680 Speaker 2: But is there something in particular that you want to 920 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 2: work on that you want to get better at as 921 00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:07,480 Speaker 2: you go through training camp? 922 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:10,040 Speaker 6: Of course, man, like you said, man, obviously working the 923 00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 6: whole package. You know everything is you know, you want 924 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:13,799 Speaker 6: to obviously work on everything. I think the biggest thing 925 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,919 Speaker 6: for me and taking that next step is yack, man, yep, 926 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:19,239 Speaker 6: the yards after the catch, being able to catch the 927 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,320 Speaker 6: ball and knowing that I could get ten to fifteen 928 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:23,360 Speaker 6: yards after that, you know, really trying to go for 929 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:25,000 Speaker 6: a touchdown, you know what I'm saying, Really trying to 930 00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 6: take a little slam all the way to the end zone. 931 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:31,800 Speaker 6: So that's probably my biggest thing right now. I say, like, 932 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,880 Speaker 6: like I said off the field, not really off the field, 933 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 6: but just like in terms of just receiver stuff. It's 934 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:38,879 Speaker 6: just like I said, just building that trust within my team, 935 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:40,759 Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. So those are my two 936 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 6: biggest things for real, for. 937 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 1: Real, Josh Kelly Withers. 938 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:46,279 Speaker 3: So you went to school in Fresno High School and 939 00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 3: then Fresno State, and then you transferred a couple of 940 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:52,680 Speaker 3: times after that, Washington State, Texas, Texas.

Cali High School Football, Texas High. 1003 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:22,400 Speaker 5: School Football California. 1004 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:26,440 Speaker 6: Man, I'm not I'm not even I'm not gonna lie though. 1005 00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:28,560 Speaker 6: Y'all got a lot of great talent out here, but 1006 00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:29,920 Speaker 6: it's just something about CALLI bought it. 1007 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,720 Speaker 5: I just know what I'm saying. That a little different. 1008 00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 5: I say. 1009 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:34,719 Speaker 6: Look, the one thing I do say about the two 1010 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:37,320 Speaker 6: is that I feel like California is more finesse, more speed, 1011 00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:40,240 Speaker 6: more from there. I feel like Texas more speed and power. 1012 00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 6: You know, you gotta size side, Yeah. 1013 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:45,680 Speaker 4: You ofllfensive linemen in the state that are high schoolers. 1014 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:48,880 Speaker 5: Are like huge, yeah. Huge. There's some big boys out here. 1015 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 2: And they have some in California too, but it feels 1016 00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:52,560 Speaker 2: like they're kind of congested a certain. 1017 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:56,400 Speaker 5: Spots for sure for modern day but definitely the bigger schools. 1018 00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:58,640 Speaker 6: I feel like Texas, you guys, are more spread out 1019 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 6: in terms of y'all stayed in terms of what's halling 1020 00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:01,680 Speaker 6: is okay? 1021 00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:05,600 Speaker 5: All right, good answer, said you guys, man, Thank you. 1022 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:07,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's right. I know my Calaia high school football. 1023 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 1: I follow it from Afar. 1024 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:10,399 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1025 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:13,440 Speaker 2: I like high school football anywhere, mostly Texas, you know that, 1026 00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:16,200 Speaker 2: but Florida where I coach, California, where my daughter lives, 1027 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:19,880 Speaker 2: I love the LA football scene and just the California 1028 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,239 Speaker 2: football scene, so I'm always on top of it. All right, 1029 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,560 Speaker 2: let's be on top of the league right now, going 1030 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:26,880 Speaker 2: around the NFL next right here in Texans All Access. 1031 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:32,160 Speaker 2: All right, here we go Wednesday, Nation of Texans All Access. 1032 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:35,480 Speaker 2: Comment at you from the Texans Radio studio. I am 1033 00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:39,680 Speaker 2: your host, John Harris, football ANATOST sideline reporter. And one 1034 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:43,640 Speaker 2: of the things I've been railing about all summer long 1035 00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:50,080 Speaker 2: is the seeming lack of disrespect for Kaylen Bullock safety 1036 00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:54,360 Speaker 2: for your Texans. Well, Benjamin Solack of ESPN just shot 1037 00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:57,000 Speaker 2: that all to you know what he's won. 1038 00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:58,480 Speaker 4: There are many that are missing. 1039 00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:04,680 Speaker 2: He did a breakout candidate for all thirty two teams. Now, 1040 00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:07,560 Speaker 2: if I were to answer that question, and you'll see 1041 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:09,840 Speaker 2: why I answer it this way, I think it would. 1042 00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:10,400 Speaker 4: Be Jade Higgins. 1043 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:11,640 Speaker 1: I believe in Higg. 1044 00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 4: I think he's going to have a big year. 1045 00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:14,279 Speaker 1: I think it's time. 1046 00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:15,839 Speaker 2: I think you sold over the last half of the year. 1047 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:18,480 Speaker 2: You're starting to see that connection. But I think with 1048 00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:22,080 Speaker 2: a full year in the offense, with CJ. Stroud understanding 1049 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,320 Speaker 2: where he needs to be, he and Nico on the 1050 00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:27,120 Speaker 2: field together. I think Higgs is ready for a breakout season. 1051 00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:32,560 Speaker 2: That's my thought. But Benjamin Solak says Kalem Block. Here's 1052 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:35,239 Speaker 2: what he says. Bulock is fresh off a Pro Bowl 1053 00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:37,440 Speaker 2: appearance after just two seasons of the league, so he 1054 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:41,720 Speaker 2: is perhaps already too prolific to be called a breakout candidate. 1055 00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:46,120 Speaker 2: I think that's true, But he continues, how many NFL 1056 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:48,000 Speaker 2: fans would list him when naming the stars of the 1057 00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:52,120 Speaker 2: Texas defense Will Anderson, Derrick Sting, Junior, Daniel Hunter block 1058 00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:54,680 Speaker 2: question Mark, Well, I'm ready to put him up there, 1059 00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:58,520 Speaker 2: he said, nine interceptions of two seasons, unreal combination of range, 1060 00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:02,920 Speaker 2: instincts and ball skills. A true center fielding safety, one 1061 00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:05,440 Speaker 2: of a few remaining of that dying breed. Bullock is 1062 00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:09,160 Speaker 2: admirably physical and willing and run support read blanket Ship 1063 00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:11,680 Speaker 2: should allow Bullock to spend a little bit more time 1064 00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 2: playing in the box or to half of the field, 1065 00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:18,080 Speaker 2: which will increase his opportunities for ball production and nationally 1066 00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:23,399 Speaker 2: national recognition. Accordingly, I think Kaylin's been there the whole time. 1067 00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:25,800 Speaker 2: I think Kayln is one of the top three safeties 1068 00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:30,439 Speaker 2: in the league. Ethel Kyle Hamilton in a mix anybody else, 1069 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:31,400 Speaker 2: I'll put him on par. 1070 00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 1: With in the league, any body. He is that good. 1071 00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:36,759 Speaker 2: So yeah, we went around the NFL by talking about 1072 00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:39,239 Speaker 2: how great Kaylen Bullock is, because he is, and that 1073 00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:41,640 Speaker 2: is going to do it for today's show. Tomorrow we 1074 00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:44,040 Speaker 2: got the General with us. Looking forward to that. John 1075 00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:46,480 Speaker 2: McClay gonna join us on the show. Hopefully you will 1076 00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:49,160 Speaker 2: as well. Appreciate everybody. Thank you so much, Colin, glad 1077 00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:51,680 Speaker 2: you're back. We'll see tomorrow and as always, go Texans.
