1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,200 Speaker 1: What's going on? Everybody, Welcome in to him Monday Day, 2 00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:05,960 Speaker 1: Texas All Access from the Monday Texans Radio Studio. I'm 3 00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:08,160 Speaker 1: your host, John Harris, Football and o A sideline reporters, 4 00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 1: So glad to be with you. We're here from Andrea 5 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,280 Speaker 1: Ware later in the show. Also John McClain later in 6 00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:15,640 Speaker 1: the show. But we want to take a ride through 7 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:20,720 Speaker 1: week thirteen in the NFL, and man, what a ride 8 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:23,159 Speaker 1: it was. So we are going to start with the 9 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:26,560 Speaker 1: game of the day. Now, there were a few of them, 10 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 1: but the game of the day to me took place 11 00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:35,479 Speaker 1: in Cincinnati. That's right, WKRP in Cincinnati, and it was 12 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:41,919 Speaker 1: Chiefs fee Bengals, and baby, what a game this was. 13 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 1: In Cincinnati. Jumped out to a seven three lead in 14 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 1: this game, taking it on it to the second quarter, 15 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: and that's when Joe Burrow found t Higgins to give 16 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: them a fourteen to three lead. You know, high pointed 17 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,279 Speaker 1: every time it would be dangerous right here at third 18 00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: and eight, he's at the bottom of the screen, but 19 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 1: Burrows going the other way and he's got Higgins any 20 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: times for the touchdown. Fun up plenty by Gee Higgins. 21 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: But the Chiefs would get back in this game, Isaiah 22 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:15,679 Speaker 1: Pacheco would score after Jerick McKinnon's scores are two straight 23 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: touchdowns for the running backs of the Chiefs. Gave the 24 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: Chiefs a seventeen to fourteen league. But then the Bengals 25 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: tied to EMC Fiers to kick the thirty six yard 26 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: field and tied at seventeen. And then Patrick Mahomes turning 27 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 1: a jetman, you know, like the air Jordan's logo. He 28 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: got a little controversial, but he didn't get in the 29 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: end zone. And this gave the Chiefs of twenty four 30 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:45,320 Speaker 1: seventeen league. It's for real. Mahomes up in the air 31 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: and he fumble. Does he went across? Did he break 32 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 1: the plane? First? It looked like he broke the plane. 33 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: It touch downs the secal, Oh he did. The Michael 34 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: Jordan up on top of the ball, stretched out, fumble 35 00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: comes out. But I think the Michael Jordan of the sport. 36 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: Maybe he just got over two guys. And Alan Ready says, 37 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: I got it anyway, and I'm taking it home. Oh, 38 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 1: that en't anything anyway. Then Creed Humphries like, give it 39 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: to the old lineman. They did throw their hands up 40 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,519 Speaker 1: in the ship. Prior to the cornback fungling the ball. 41 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 1: The ying on the field is a touchdown as he 42 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 1: broke the plane prior to the phone ball. That did 43 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: not make the Bengals fans very happy and understandable. They 44 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 1: got a drive going. Evan McPherson kicked a forty one 45 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: yard field goal to give Cincinnati or to cut the 46 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: Cincinnati and deficit to four. The Bengals will get the 47 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: ball back a little while later, and that's when Joe 48 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: Burrow got his guy opened. And then Jamar Chase made 49 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,119 Speaker 1: wonderful things happen. Pressure coming after Burrow on the two 50 00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:01,519 Speaker 1: mente rushing five, they show it this Burrow a chance 51 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 1: to chase and there he goes Cornhill, he leaps over. 52 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: Burrow would in that drive with an eight yard touchdown 53 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:17,079 Speaker 1: pass to running back Chris Evans, and Cincinnati would take 54 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: a twenty seven twenty four league Cincinnati would stop the 55 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 1: Chiefs and get the ball back up three in field 56 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: goal range, but afraid of Mahomes, Burrow went back to past, 57 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: knowing they gotta pick up this first down, get a 58 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: first down into the game's over, kick a field goal 59 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: and Mahomes has a chance. Well, Burrow ended the game 60 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: right here fight pressure pass, Oh, that's gonna do it. 61 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: Haggins somehow able to get that reception with Josha with 62 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: Williams all over him. Williams was furious after the game, 63 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: and for good reason. He was draped all over Higgins. 64 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: But what a throw by Joey the twenty five or 65 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: thirty one on the day, two hundred and eighty six yards, 66 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: two tuddies and the Chiefs go down to defeat for 67 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: the third straight time to the Cincinnati Bengals twenty seven 68 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: twenty four. I think all three games they've been twenty 69 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: seven twenty four, Mahomes only had two hundred twenty three 70 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: yards passing and one touchdown. Pacheco sixty six yards on 71 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 1: the ground and one touchdown. Jamar Chase had ninety seven 72 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,919 Speaker 1: yards receiving. Again, somaj p Ryan went for over one 73 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: hundred withth no Joe Mixon Bengals win. Bengals moved to 74 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: eight and four, dropped the Chiefs to nine and three, 75 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: and now the Bengals are in at number three spot, 76 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 1: tied with the Ravens atop the AFC North, but one 77 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 1: game behind the Buffalo Bills. Another Chiefs are behind the 78 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills as well. The Bills are the number one 79 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:48,160 Speaker 1: seed in the AFC. Man, what a ball game that 80 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: was in Cincinnati. All right, let's go to Minnesota where 81 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: the New York Jets were taken on. In Minnesota, Vikings 82 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: and Garrett Wilson, the rookie from Ohio State got a 83 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: involved early. Jets defense has kept them in the game. Now, 84 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: can the Jets cash in with a touchdown? Movement from 85 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: Yuzama White slims it in stride, breaking away Jarrett Wilson. 86 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: Wilson a big play down field. Wilson's still going along 87 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: the sideline. He's not gonna go down. But in Minnesota, 88 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 1: there's only room for one star wide receiver. And even 89 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: though DJ Reid wanted to talk about the fact that 90 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: he was all up in Jay Jetta's bleep, as he 91 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: said after the game, jay Jett has got him for 92 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: the biggest play of the game. This touchdown from Justin 93 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 1: Jefferson gave Minnesota a twenty seven fifteen lead one day. 94 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 1: Would not relinquish. I get right through where I want 95 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: to go with every play call I'd make. It's third down, 96 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: is it Jefferson? Time Cousins throws jefter seven touchdowns. Minnesota 97 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: man DJ Reid was definitely not in his bleep on 98 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 1: that play because Jefferson had that touchdown and he also 99 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: had six other catches for a total of forty five 100 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: yards and one touchdown, So Jefferson held in check. So 101 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: good on the Jets, but big touchdown there to give 102 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings twenty seven fifteen lead. Now, Mike White 103 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: would score to make a twenty seven twenty two. But 104 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,040 Speaker 1: when the Jets got the ball, looking to take the 105 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: lead and potentially win the game, Harrison Smith stepped in. 106 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: Ty Johnson now in there, the fourth year running back 107 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 1: out of Maryland, former Detroit Lion, right looking throws pucked 108 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 1: up in the air and intercept it off the deflection 109 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: Harrison Smith trying to look to the outside. Smith reverses 110 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 1: field looking for blockers the Jets trying to get over 111 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 1: there at Smith hands it off and that would seal 112 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 1: this one for the Vikings. Mike White did throw for 113 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: three hundred and sixty nine yards, but he threw those 114 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 1: two interceptions that one you heard to Harrison Smith, one 115 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: to Cameron buying them Bam night. The rookie doing some 116 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,359 Speaker 1: good things for the Jets. Fifteen carries for ninety yards 117 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: and Garrett Wilson went nuts eight receptions for one hundred 118 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: and sixty two yards, the Rooks getting it dump for 119 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: the Jets, but not enough as the Jets fall through 120 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 1: seven and five. The Vikings moved to ten to two 121 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: with that big win twenty seven twenty two over the Jets. Jets, Jets, Jets. 122 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,239 Speaker 1: Let's go to Sunday night football where the Texans next 123 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: opponent and one of their hated opponents were matching wits 124 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: at Jerry World and it was all Dallas Cowboys. How 125 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: about CD Lamb getting in the end zone? Yeah, Richmond, Texas, 126 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: homie here it is working on into the guys. Coach, 127 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: bring five, Chris Scott crows under his complete cede Lamb. 128 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: Was he down? They say no for now, Cutty's into 129 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: the end zone for a touchdown. CD got spun around, 130 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: but they ruled nobody heart was down Stefan Gilder. That 131 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: lamp touchdown gave the Cowboys a seven to three lead. 132 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: Now the Colts would stay in it for the most 133 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: part most of the game. In fact, at the end 134 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: of third quarter, this one was twenty one nineteen and 135 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: then well, the turnover fireworks started, and you know when 136 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: things are going bad for a team, they go really badly. 137 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,959 Speaker 1: The Cowboys started taking the ball away from the Colts, 138 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: in particular, a former Colt in particular, the very first 139 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: draft pick Chris Ballard ever made was Malik Hooker. He 140 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 1: then picked this pass off MALIEK. Cooker picking off the Colts. Boy, 141 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 1: I just I'm kind of chuckling at it, because the 142 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: Colts had a rough night and they had a rough 143 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. Emilee Cooker was one of the major reasons 144 00:08:55,960 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 1: why with this interceptions jump, it's intercepted out of the flection. 145 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: Crown checked it on the run to the sideline, didn't 146 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: side of the twenty five dward mine from a leak hooker. 147 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: Bud Hooker was far from done. He actually was gonna 148 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: score a little bit later. Finally Costumbuk football. It's recovered 149 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 1: by Dallas and is that the leak hooker again? It 150 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:31,599 Speaker 1: is against his own team again, touchdown Dallas. Well, that 151 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 1: was some revenge from a leak hooker. In the fourth quarter, 152 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: Gallup touchdown, the hooker Fumber returned, Tony Pollard touchdown, Ezekiel 153 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,439 Speaker 1: Elliott touchdown, Leak Davis touchdown. It went from twenty one 154 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: nineteen to fifty four nineteen as the Dallas Cowboys turn 155 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:54,079 Speaker 1: over the Colts almost every drive in the fourth quarter. 156 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,679 Speaker 1: My goodness, Now Ryan threw for two thirty three, but 157 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 1: he threw now one, not two, but three picks out. 158 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: Pre did have a touchdown, but the Cowboys held Jonathan 159 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: Taylor eighty two yards dack through three touchdowns. Tony Pollard 160 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: had two rushing Ceedee Lamb had a touchdown, and the 161 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: Cowboys rolled, and I mean rolled big over the Indianapolis 162 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: Colts fifty four to nineteen. That puts Cowboys at nine 163 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 1: and three, two games behind the Eagles, but they got 164 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: opportunity to catch him when a few left. Eagles are 165 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,839 Speaker 1: playing really well. In fact, speaking of the Eagles, the 166 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: ten and one Eagles were taken on the AFC South 167 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 1: leading Tennessee Titans. People were geeked about this game. I 168 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: mean they were geeked. In fact, a lot of people 169 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: in Tennessee thought, yeah, yeah, we got this. No, it 170 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 1: was aj Brown revenge day, and I mean big time. Yeah. 171 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,719 Speaker 1: Two touchdowns here was one of them second down and 172 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: three after the seven yard game. A couple of pumps 173 00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: hurts going deep for a j Brown. He has got 174 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 1: a touchdown Philadelphia. Brown was phenomenal as you would expect, 175 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 1: eight catches, one hundred nineteen yards and two touchdowns. Speaking 176 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: of revenge, he got it. But Jalen Hurts put on 177 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 1: a show. Three hundred and eighty yards passing, three hundred 178 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,079 Speaker 1: eighty yards passing and three touchdowns against the Tennessee Titans. 179 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 1: Three hundred and eighty yards passing and three touchdowns against 180 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 1: the Titans. I want you to think back to what 181 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 1: the Texans didn't do against the Titans. They didn't throw 182 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 1: for three hundred and eighty yards. That's for damn sure. 183 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 1: Titans offense did nothing. Ryan Tanneo threw for one forty 184 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: one at a Tuddy that's it. Then he carried it 185 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:51,319 Speaker 1: for three for thirty four. I mean the Eagles shut 186 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: down the running game. Shut it down. They held Derrick 187 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: Henry to thirty yards on eleven carries. The Eagles made 188 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 1: a significant statement to get to eleven in one. They 189 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: win thirty five to ten. AJ Brown gets his revenge, 190 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: Mike Rabel gets really mad, and the Titans faltered seventy five. 191 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: It's just that nobody in the NFC South can catch 192 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans at all. Maybe the Jaguars, well, maybe 193 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: not the Jaguars after Detroit got through with them. Detroit 194 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 1: did whatever they wanted to up in the Motor City 195 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 1: against the Jags. It was ugly from jump and it 196 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 1: stayed that way in large part because the Jags couldn't 197 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 1: stop Jared Goff, who ended up finding his guy DJ 198 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: Chark right here. You see the quick decision he's from 199 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: both of them. That's the difference for Goff, who's airing 200 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: it up deep. For DJ Chark, he hangs off man. 201 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,559 Speaker 1: That was an absolute disaster for the Jaguars, which I'm 202 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: not mad at not mad at it at all. The 203 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: Lions got up early, they stayed up early, and they 204 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:08,960 Speaker 1: housed the Jacksonville Jaguars forty to fourteen. Jared goffed through 205 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: for three hundred and forty yards against the Jaguars defense. 206 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 1: He also threw two touchdowns. DeAndre Swift had one. I 207 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 1: mentioned DJ Chark he had that long catch which you heard, 208 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: but on this day, I'm on Ross. Sat Brown went 209 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 1: off eleven catches one hundred fourteen yards, two touchdowns. Shark 210 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 1: did have five catches for ninety eight, including that forty 211 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: one yard. DeAndre Swift had forty nine yards receiving, an 212 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 1: addition to sixty two yards rushing. Jared Goff one of 213 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: his best days as a pro. Lions move to five 214 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 1: and seven, and had they won that game against the Bills, 215 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: all I know is they tied it, because here in Houston, 216 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: we don't know what happened, so I just assume they tied. 217 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,680 Speaker 1: But five and seven, Jaguars moved to four and eight. 218 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: The Jacks can just keep it together. Maybe they could 219 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: catch Tennessee. I don't know, because the Colts aren't doing it. 220 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 1: We obviously are not doing it, and the Jaguars are. 221 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 1: I don't know. The Tits could have that thing sewn 222 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: up in a week or two and then rest everybody 223 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,840 Speaker 1: because they're going nowhere than the four seeds, so they 224 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 1: can just rest everybody and play that home game against 225 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:11,119 Speaker 1: the Bengals probably again either way, forty to fourteen. Jags 226 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: lose badly, badly on the road, so I'm not mad 227 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 1: at Speaking of losing badly, the Green Bay Packers have 228 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: lost badly thus far this year. It's not gone well. 229 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers has been kind of in his Accusaisha or 230 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 1: whatever he was taking he has not played well. But 231 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 1: on Sunday against the Chicago Bears, as he said, that's 232 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: the team he owns. He's the second owner of that 233 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 1: team or something of that magnitude. And this was a 234 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: game that didn't start well through the Green Bay Packers though, 235 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 1: because Justin Fields Rogers carnerpart can run, and he can 236 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: run beally beally well, and he ran all the way 237 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: to the end zone on the Packers fields. I want 238 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: to move to move past Nixon at Justin Fields ahead 239 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: of the field. Hey, god, what a one. The Bears 240 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: were flying high at that point, up ten to nothing. 241 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 1: They would then score later to make it sixteen to three, 242 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: but a missed extra point made it sixteen three. A 243 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: Christian Watson touchdown right before the half made it sixteen ten. 244 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 1: Cairo Santos extended lead to nineteen ten going into the 245 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. Oh man, could the Bears finally knock off 246 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: the Packers? No, because it started in the fourth quarter 247 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: with AJ Dillon cutting the lead. Take it to Watson, 248 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: give it to Dilling and AJ Dillon I'm the moved 249 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 1: into the end Shode. It's a touchdown and the Packers 250 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 1: are within a score. In fact, after the extra point. 251 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 1: The Packers were within two. They would take the lead 252 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 1: on Mason Crosby field goal of four forty nine left. 253 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: They got the ball just under the two minute warning, 254 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 1: and this time Christie Watson wasn't gonna catch and run. 255 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: He was just gonna run on a reverse forty six 256 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: yards to seal it and beat the Bears at Soldier Field. 257 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 1: Remember the Bears also have a missed pat and a 258 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: field goal blocked at a one point game. It's not 259 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 1: the first time that's happened this year. It's Watson. I'd 260 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: he can fly it, and he can fly to the 261 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: end zone. Touchdown Green Bay. Yeah, dude actually took off. 262 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 1: He left his feet to fly in the endzone. He 263 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: didn't only know what he was gonna do. He just 264 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: got so excited he just gotta took off. Christian Watson 265 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: has been an absolute revelation for the Green Bay Packers lately. 266 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 1: The second round pick coming out of North Dakota State, 267 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 1: had that reverse or a touchdown, had the touchdown catch, 268 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 1: he was absolutely fantastic. Aj Dillon led the Packers of 269 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 1: the ground with ninety three yards and a touchdown. Alas 270 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: arded sixty seven yards receiving justin fields due for two 271 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 1: fifty four. He ran for seventy one and a touchdown 272 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,360 Speaker 1: at fifty five yard you heard, but he also threw 273 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 1: two interceptions back breakers. The Bears fall through three and 274 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 1: ten as the Packers moved through five and eight and 275 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 1: stay alive just by the hair of their chinny chin chin. 276 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. Speaking of staying alive, Miami and San 277 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 1: Francisco are more than alive. They are right in the mix. 278 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: And Mike McDaniel was going back to where he cut 279 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: his teeth. In fact, he was the offensive coordinator just 280 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: recently for Kyle Shanahan out in San Francisco. So on 281 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: the first play, he tried to show his former boss 282 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 1: what he had learned as into a Tonga violoa to 283 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: trench shirtfield to start the scoring. On the first play, 284 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 1: this explosive offense gets things going with a quick throw 285 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: down the scene and it's trench Shirtfield. Big play on 286 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: the first run home run play one to the house. 287 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 1: Let us start for the dolphin, seventy five yard lightning 288 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:13,880 Speaker 1: strike from trench Shurtfield. But the forty nine ers, well, 289 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 1: they've got offensive threats too, including one they just traded for, 290 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey fifteen yard long out of the timehouse from 291 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 1: the forty one. McCaffrey cuts it back to the player, 292 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:33,399 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey inside the fifteen down to the eleven thirty 293 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,439 Speaker 1: yard run. McCaffrey had a big day on the ground, 294 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 1: sixty six yards rushing. He had eighty yards receiving as well, 295 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 1: eight catches and one touchdown. That touchdown right at the 296 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,879 Speaker 1: end of the first half gave San Francisco seventeen to 297 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 1: ten lead. But it was the defense that really took 298 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: over for San Francisco. They got after two a Tonga 299 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 1: violloid created a lot of turnovers, including this one to 300 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 1: Jimmy Ward, tongue of mine, Lord Oh diving back Jimmy 301 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:10,880 Speaker 1: Ward superman dive and an interception. Now the Niners would 302 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,679 Speaker 1: end up taking a twenty three to ten lead, But 303 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: early in the fourth quarter, Tua went deep to his guy, 304 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: yeah Tyreek Hill empty it out on first and ten again, 305 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: well protected, here's a dead ball. Once Hill perfectly dropped 306 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 1: in touchdown Dolphins. In the blink of an eye, they 307 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 1: find it and strike from forty five yards and it's 308 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 1: a one score game. Early in the fourth Old Boy 309 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 1: was getting exciting, but the Niners went right back to 310 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 1: work behind Brock Purty. Backup quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo had gotten hurt, 311 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,679 Speaker 1: and Purty came into game and really kept it together. 312 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 1: He threw for two hundred and ten yards, two touchdowns 313 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: and got another. I got the fourth Nighters of position 314 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,640 Speaker 1: for another field go. It's Robbie Gouldknockholm to give them 315 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: a twenty six seventeen lead. It was essentially over the 316 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: two score lead under two minutes, but the Niner defense 317 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: put the kapper on it right here. I wanted his 318 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 1: best games as a forty nine hund down nine with 319 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: two to go, Tongua by law. He as he throws 320 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 1: balls out, ball is live and it is a touchdown 321 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 1: for Dre green Law. Oh man, I remember that foghorn 322 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 1: from last year. My goodness, green Laws twenty three yard 323 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 1: fumble return gave the Niners a thirty three seventeen lead. 324 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: It put both teams at eight and four. And don't 325 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: look now, but the Niners are really really difficult. Like 326 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 1: I said, Purdy a really solid ball game replacing Jimmy 327 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,439 Speaker 1: Garoppolo two a tongue by lawd did throw for almost 328 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,719 Speaker 1: three hundred yards and two touchdowns, but the two interceptions, 329 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: including that one to Jimmy Ward to fumble at the end, 330 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 1: overshadowed a tremendous game by Tyreek killed nine catches, one 331 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 1: hundred forty six yards and a touchdown. Really fun football 332 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 1: game to watch, but San Francisco dominated from the beginning. 333 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to the afternoon games. And there 334 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 1: was one great one out in Los Vegas as the 335 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: Chargers were taken on the Los Vegas Raiders, and the 336 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,679 Speaker 1: Raiders got tricky. Well you could just tell that he 337 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 1: is in the zone and he is feeling it. Fleet flicker, 338 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 1: goodna throw it deep, has a man open Adams touchdown. 339 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 1: After a defensive stop, the Raiders got the ball back. 340 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: That first Adams touchdown gave them a seventeen thirteen lead. 341 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: This second one gave them a twenty four thirteen lead. 342 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 1: And what a beautiful throw this was from Derek Carr 343 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:59,640 Speaker 1: Adams Jacobs in the backfield. Here are the Raiders at 344 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:04,679 Speaker 1: the three car gonna go for it all to the 345 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 1: end zone in the end zone to Monte Adams touchdown. 346 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 1: The Raiders paid a lot for Damante Adams through draft 347 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,360 Speaker 1: capital and money, but it's paying off. That guy has 348 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:24,360 Speaker 1: been unbelievable. Two straight touchdowns. Game of twenty four thirteen lead. 349 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 1: Daniel Carlson kicked off the fourth quarter literally with a 350 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 1: twenty five yard field goal to give the Vegas Raiders 351 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:35,880 Speaker 1: a fourteen point lead. But the Chargers weren't quite done. 352 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,959 Speaker 1: At least done on this day. They need the twenty 353 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 1: three for a first down. Herbert, with time now running 354 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: out of time, throws on the run down the sideline 355 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 1: Ka Allen for the touchdown. What a throw? What a catch? 356 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 1: I mean that throw was just stupid. I mean that 357 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 1: was just ridiculous Herbert. I mean I don't even know 358 00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 1: how to describe some things he does. That would cut 359 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: it to twenty seven twenty, but the Raiders would allow 360 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,879 Speaker 1: the Chargers no more, and that's how it would finish. 361 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 1: The Raiders moved to five and seven, and don't look now, 362 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: they're still in the mix. They're playing much better football. 363 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 1: Derek carring to Mountay, Adams are clicking. Just Jacobs is 364 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 1: getting it done. Jacobs ran for one hundred and forty 365 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: four yards and one touchdown. Adams had one hundred and 366 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: seventy seven of Derek cars two hundred and fifty yards 367 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 1: passing eight receptions, two touchdowns. Keenan Allen Slayer was great 368 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:33,160 Speaker 1: two six catches that touchdown you just heard eighty eight 369 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 1: yards receiving Herbert through for three hundred and thirty five yards. 370 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: Those guys put on a show out West as the 371 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: Raiders moved through five and seven. Man, what a game 372 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: that was. But it wasn't the only game at the 373 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:54,160 Speaker 1: end of the day. Let's go to La Soul five Stadium. 374 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,719 Speaker 1: No Matt Stafford, he's been put on IR. But the 375 00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 1: Rams battled. In fact, the Rams had a twenty three 376 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:05,439 Speaker 1: to twenty lead after a Cam Acre's touchdown run. But 377 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 1: Gino Smith got a drive going. He got him down 378 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 1: to the eight yard line with thirty six seconds left. 379 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: And when that's the case, who do you go to? 380 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 1: That's right, DK, Metcalf Smith waiting for the shotgun snap 381 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: the fake rolls right, throws for the end zone. It 382 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:30,399 Speaker 1: is he came Metcalf a copower to snatch it away 383 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 1: and get Seattle to late lead. It was a late 384 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: lead they would keep twenty seven twenty three. DK fantastic 385 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 1: on this day. Actually, he and Tyler Lockett. How about 386 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: this Metcalf eight for one, twenty seven touchdown. Lockett nine 387 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 1: for one twenty eight touchdown. Seattle moves to seven and five, 388 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 1: Rams fall through three and nine, three and nine. The 389 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 1: Lions love that because that just gives the lines a 390 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:03,400 Speaker 1: better draft. All right, that was thirteen in the NFL. 391 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: We get back to talk to our buddy Andrea Ware 392 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 1: right here on Texans All Access. What's up, everybody? Welcome 393 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 1: back to Monday, an issue of Texas All Access from 394 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:15,399 Speaker 1: Nonday Texans Radio Studio. I am John Harris, your host 395 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: football anal side of the reporter for your Houston Texans. 396 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 1: Like the fans of myself as a little bit of 397 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,399 Speaker 1: a draft lover, I don't like the word used, the 398 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 1: word expert, like to maybe use analysts. I guess that's 399 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: a good good word. So we were talking this morning 400 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: with Mark about certain things that were happening, and one 401 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: of the things that happened over the weekend was that 402 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:37,360 Speaker 1: Michael Pennocks quarterback, a University Washington guy that Andrea Ware loves, 403 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 1: decided to go back to Washington, and so we wanted 404 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,120 Speaker 1: to get Drey's thoughts about that. And then the conversation 405 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 1: went well the way it typically goes before we get 406 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: into anything else. We were in a conversation about Michael 407 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 1: Pennocks going back to school. Why do you think this happens? 408 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,440 Speaker 1: Why does he do it? Is it the NIL money? 409 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: With these guys, it's so good that, hey, it stayed 410 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: in school another year. Is not that damaging finance? Actually, 411 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,199 Speaker 1: in fact, it's not that bad at all. What do 412 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 1: you think that? Yeah, I mean you can get money 413 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 1: that's you know, comparable, So a lot of guys can 414 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 1: for their college careers rather than having to leave early, 415 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 1: you know, with NIL, rather than leaving early to go 416 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: to the NFL. I think you're gonna see more kids 417 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,400 Speaker 1: stay in school. Uh, there is no rush and you're 418 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 1: having a you know, a ton of fun at this 419 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 1: point in your life. Why rush off? You know? And 420 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:30,359 Speaker 1: I think that's one reason. Because he's gonna have the 421 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 1: NIL stuff, he doesn't have to rush. I think the 422 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 1: second one for him is that he wants to prove 423 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 1: to scouts and the NFL types that he can stay 424 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 1: healthy not only one season, but a second consecutive season. 425 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 1: Because he had injury marked first couple of years at Indiana. 426 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,879 Speaker 1: This is the first year that he actually finished the 427 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,159 Speaker 1: year without an injury so I think that's part of 428 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: the equation as well. Yeah, that's where we talked about drama. 429 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 1: Ask you this because you had a decision to make 430 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 1: back in the day at University Houston and maybe it's 431 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: tough and you know, a few years later, just a 432 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,959 Speaker 1: handful of years later, obviously, if then na L had 433 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 1: been around when you were back in college, would you 434 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: have stayed another year at University Houston. That's a great question, Johnny. Um, 435 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 1: you know who knows? You know, what type of nil 436 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 1: money would I have been getting at that time. I'd 437 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:27,640 Speaker 1: like to think healthy, you know, comparable to what's out 438 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 1: there today at whatever that rate was back then. But 439 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 1: you know, my reasoning for leaving was when Jack Pardy. 440 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 1: I never thought about leaving. Actually, I was coming back. 441 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: I was hell bent on coming back. When coach Party 442 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 1: left to go to the Oilers and he took that job, 443 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,439 Speaker 1: that's when that's the only time I even thought about, uh, 444 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: well maybe I need to look into this, and that's 445 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 1: when I ultimately came to that decision. But I was 446 00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: coming back. Great thoughts on what you saw off from 447 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 1: Watson yesterday. Let's start there. How do you think he 448 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 1: looked and where it's going from here. I mean, obviously 449 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 1: it didn't look good, but what do you think of 450 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 1: the projection here in the final stretch run of the season. 451 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,119 Speaker 1: I think he played exactly the way I thought he 452 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 1: would play. Would be up and down at times. He 453 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: would make some good decisions that he would look like 454 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,439 Speaker 1: Dashaun and he would wow you with a player or 455 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 1: two here in there, and then he's gonna throw an 456 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:30,360 Speaker 1: interception or throw the ball in an area of the 457 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:33,400 Speaker 1: field that you you're like, whoa, who is this guy? 458 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: The interception in the end zone to Jaylen Petrie. There 459 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 1: are a couple of balls that just absolutely nose dives. 460 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: That's just from the anticipation of being back out there, 461 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 1: or certain plays, or you're trying to anticipate a guy 462 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: come open, come open, and you're just holding a ball 463 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 1: too tight, and when you do that, the ball's gonna 464 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: nose dive on you. And that's just He's just gonna 465 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: He'll get better and better and better each and every 466 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 1: week that he's out there, because of the nerves will lessen, 467 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: the pressure will lessen, and if he can come into 468 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 1: that environment and give the type of performance yesterday without 469 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 1: just falling flat on his back then he is well 470 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 1: on his way. Dre. We talked about the defense the 471 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: last few weeks gave up I mean, just sixteen points 472 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 1: to Washington, just sixteen points to Miami, and just yesterday 473 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: three really because three you could account or ten you 474 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: could give the special teams, and then two touchdowns given 475 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: up by the offense. So defense kind of going up. 476 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 1: It's into the bargain. Offense not so much. So I'm 477 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 1: gonna let you be the offensive not even call you 478 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. I'm just gonna make you the offensive guru. 479 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 1: You're in charge of the offense. What would you do 480 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 1: going forward, whether it's personnel, scheme changes, what would you 481 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 1: want to do with this offense to get it going 482 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 1: for the last five weeks. Well, you know, I've got 483 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 1: the luxurre and be on the outside looking in and 484 00:29:55,600 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: seeing every game. So I would speed things up. Whether 485 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 1: I go back to Davis Mills or not, I don't 486 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 1: think that matters at this point. I probably would make 487 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 1: that that change as well. I would give Damian Pierce 488 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: the ball down close near the goal line. That would 489 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 1: that be a no brainer. But ultimately I would just 490 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: speed that. I would speed everything up. I would equip 491 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 1: this group with the ability to go no huddle at 492 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 1: any time and when things are stale, you need to 493 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: take the thinking out of it for guys at times. 494 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: There are pressure situations during games all the time, and 495 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 1: you've got to know what buttons to push when guys 496 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: start to feel that pressure, especially the guy a quarterback, 497 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 1: and so you know you give them something easy, Well 498 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 1: what is that? You know? It hits her out on 499 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 1: the outside, a slat, anything back to the line of 500 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 1: scrimmage after a big play or a nice run by 501 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 1: your running back, Let's put some pressure on the defense 502 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 1: and let's just go run a play as opposed to 503 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 1: who do I have to identify? Who am I blocking 504 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 1: right here? Who's doing this? Let's attack every once in 505 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 1: a while, and I think they would be better served 506 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 1: if they took a little bit more of that approach. 507 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: I know watching Davis Mills the last two seasons, that's 508 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: where he flourish. Is the best Dre What about the Cowboys? 509 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 1: Your thoughts on them? As the Texans visit Arlington Sunday 510 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 1: at noon. They blew out the Colts last night. It 511 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 1: was a two point game heading into the fourth, but 512 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 1: then they scored thirty three and the fourth, My goodness, 513 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 1: your thoughts. I fear anybody that has a running game, 514 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 1: a big time running back, and the Cowboys happened to 515 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 1: have too, Tony Pollard and doubles over there. So that's 516 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: what scares me the most. It's not Dak, it's not 517 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 1: you know, eighty eight or any of that mystique. It's 518 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 1: just the running game. And they're a big upfront on 519 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 1: the offensive line. That's what they can still do. Their 520 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 1: their lack of comes in protecting Dak, but they can 521 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 1: come off the football and the running games solid. We 522 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 1: know what the defense is about. The game apps to quarterback. 523 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 1: This will be a tall order this coming week. Yeah, 524 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: it is definitely going to be a tall od There's 525 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 1: no doubt about that. But Texas gotta be up to it. 526 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 1: Defense is playing a little bit better, a little bit better, 527 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 1: a little bit better. But this is probably the biggest 528 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 1: challenge actually the next couple of weeks Dallas then Kansas City. Yikes, 529 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 1: But you gotta step right up. As Michael Irvan once said, 530 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: I've heard many people say this. You don't walk up 531 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 1: and tap the eight hundred pound gorilla, You punch it 532 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 1: right in them. Out, so you gotta go to Dallas 533 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: and punch it right in the mount Coming up next, 534 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 1: our buddy John mcclin stops by.

And we love John 553 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 1: McClean when he is part of our show. And he 554 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:37,800 Speaker 1: was part of the show with Mark and I and 555 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 1: gave his thoughts on everything going on with the Texans. 556 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 1: Let's dive in with the general John McClean. Watson looked 557 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 1: shaky at best as far as throwing the football. Your thoughts, 558 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 1: Good morning, Good morning, guys. How are you? I think 559 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:59,479 Speaker 1: nobody was surprised at Watson after a seven hundred day layoff. 560 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: Would would it be very rusty? He was that he 561 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:08,319 Speaker 1: played that you were particularly pointing to right there. That 562 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 1: was the first down. They should have run the ball. 563 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:14,200 Speaker 1: It looked like Kevin Stefanski, the coach, was trying to 564 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 1: help Watson look good early, maybe get some confidence. Petrie 565 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 1: stepped in front of him and they could have you know, 566 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,800 Speaker 1: they could have scored a touchdown after that. They drove 567 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 1: down there, and I thought the Browns were right to 568 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 1: be beaten. Watson was not good as we expected and 569 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 1: they couldn't pull it off because you know, you give 570 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 1: up two touchdowns on defense and went on special teams 571 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:43,399 Speaker 1: and you're one out of twelve on third down eight 572 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,920 Speaker 1: point three percent and you're one out of four red 573 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 1: zone it's not gonna happen. And plus, you know, they 574 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:53,840 Speaker 1: could have won and still had the first pick, and 575 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 1: then they could have given the Browns another loss, which 576 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:01,880 Speaker 1: would have benefited that first round pick. John, did you 577 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 1: think at some point we talked about this and I 578 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,799 Speaker 1: think everybody assumed there was going to be some rust, 579 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:08,959 Speaker 1: but by the second half he would show he would 580 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 1: sort of shake it off. But he never did. It 581 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 1: was the third game of his career only that he 582 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 1: had not accounted for a touchdown in any way, shape 583 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 1: or form, throwing, rushing, receiving. Did you think he would 584 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 1: shake it off a little bit better than he actually did? 585 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 1: And as they go into Cincinnati, Oh man, how do 586 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 1: you think that's gonna fair for him? I didn't have 587 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 1: any idea. Nobody could have had any idea. I said 588 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 1: on six ten last week, and I wrote that it 589 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 1: could be one quarter, could be one game, could be 590 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: the rest of the season before we see the royal 591 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson, because we haven't seen him in so long, 592 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 1: and not just has he not played, you know, but 593 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 1: he was booed every time he came on the field. 594 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 1: Every time he walked through the line of scrammage, the 595 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,880 Speaker 1: fans that were there made a lot of noise. And 596 00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 1: so he's got a lot of pressure on him mentally 597 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,800 Speaker 1: to do well because he knows he's paid two hundred 598 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,760 Speaker 1: and thirty million dollars and his reputation his tarnished forever. 599 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,840 Speaker 1: And I'm sure he was pressing a little bit. And 600 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 1: now their schedule gets tougher with Cincinnati in Baltimore, although 601 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:19,720 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson is out for the Ravens, but I don't 602 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 1: see them making a push. I was with some of 603 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 1: my long time friends in the Cleveland media before the game, 604 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:32,400 Speaker 1: and when I walked up, they were kind of whispering 605 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,880 Speaker 1: wealth and win this one. They pulled. This one, is said, guys, 606 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:39,279 Speaker 1: don't even sit there and think about the playoffs in 607 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 1: this situation. Oh playoffs. No, we're not talking playoffs. And 608 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:47,080 Speaker 1: I think because they could have run the ball more 609 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:50,440 Speaker 1: with Nick Chubb. They ended up with und in seventy 610 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 1: four yards rushing. But to Texas again not in the 611 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 1: last two games, but again we're within striking distance in 612 00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:00,719 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter and then getting got will play from 613 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:05,240 Speaker 1: Kyle Allen and the offense and couldn't pull it off. 614 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:09,360 Speaker 1: But I think the Browns they may, you know, they may. 615 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 1: They've got to play at Washington and Pittsburgh in the 616 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: last two and they're capable. Maybe I think of winning 617 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 1: a couple of those games, unless all of a sudden 618 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 1: he's just as like Clark Kent run it in a 619 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 1: phone booth and coming out as Superman. But based on 620 00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:31,439 Speaker 1: what I saw yesterday, I don't think we're gonna see 621 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 1: the real Watson until next season. John McLean joining us 622 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:39,279 Speaker 1: general turnovers kill, and they did yesterday. It was good 623 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,440 Speaker 1: to see Damian Pierce get back in the flow a 624 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,960 Speaker 1: little bit. Seventy three yards yesterday four point one per Carrie. 625 00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:48,319 Speaker 1: But the quarterbacks, no matter who's in there, it just 626 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:54,000 Speaker 1: it's inaccurate and it's not happening. There's turnover problems, and 627 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:56,879 Speaker 1: this is the kind of offense where you're designing it 628 00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 1: to not turn the ball over, to be ball protective 629 00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:03,480 Speaker 1: and take your opportunities as they come. Hope the defense 630 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 1: forces some turnovers. Your thoughts, first of all, about Damien 631 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,239 Speaker 1: Piers fifty five yards in the first quarter, eighteen in 632 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: the last three quarters. They just shut down the running 633 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:17,920 Speaker 1: game or they ad just did in the Texans didn't adjust, 634 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:21,120 Speaker 1: but it started off so well, nine carries in fifty 635 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:24,560 Speaker 1: five and then nine carries in the eighteen and they 636 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:28,000 Speaker 1: just still even when Pierce is running well, they hadn't 637 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,440 Speaker 1: been able to sustain it since the Eagles into Giants 638 00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:33,760 Speaker 1: games when he averaged one hundred and fifteen point six 639 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:37,759 Speaker 1: and the turnovers. You know, Kyle Allen was an undrafted 640 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 1: free agent for a reason. He's not played well at all. 641 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 1: And it was so weird on the fumble of the 642 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,360 Speaker 1: sneak and then all of a sudden, Denzel Waters standing, 643 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:50,080 Speaker 1: They're like, oh what quart I found like an egg 644 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 1: coming out of the ticket and just picked it up, 645 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,360 Speaker 1: walked it in easy, toucheddown. Then the other one was 646 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 1: a sixteen yard touchdown. Not only do you have two 647 00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 1: turns for touchdown, but they told only twenty yards. It's 648 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 1: like last week the Dolphins went fifty nine yards for 649 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 1: one touchdown, driving three for the next one. Because the offense, 650 00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:16,759 Speaker 1: so the offense has just been terrible and and I 651 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 1: don't see it getting any better. The passing games awful. 652 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:24,080 Speaker 1: That's interception, I think in seven consecutive games, and one 653 00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 1: of the things over those last five last year when 654 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:30,600 Speaker 1: we saw so much promise with Davis Mills only two interceptions, 655 00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 1: nine touchdowns, a hundred rating, and they become a turnover machine. 656 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 1: And that's one reason they have the worst record in 657 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 1: the league. And they scored the second fewest points to 658 00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:44,879 Speaker 1: the Broncos. All right, general, so what would you do 659 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:50,120 Speaker 1: with the offense? I'll give you an I'm an offensive genie. 660 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:54,760 Speaker 1: I can grant you three wishes within reason. What wishes 661 00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: would you make? I e what would you do, especially 662 00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 1: with the quarterback position? What would you do right now? Well, 663 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,800 Speaker 1: I go back to Davis Mills. Last year, Mills sat 664 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 1: when Tyrod Taylor came back. Tyrod did not play as 665 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:11,880 Speaker 1: well coming off his injury as he had when before 666 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,320 Speaker 1: he was hurt. And then Mills came back, and after 667 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 1: having that different perspective on the bench, he was good. 668 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 1: Gave everybody hope for this season. So right now he 669 00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:26,160 Speaker 1: wasn't playing anywhere near what he did over the last 670 00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:29,919 Speaker 1: five games. But I feel bad for Hallen. I don't 671 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:33,400 Speaker 1: see it changing, and so I would go back to Mills. 672 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 1: They have so many checkdowns, so many short passes. They 673 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:40,879 Speaker 1: can't throw it down the field. They had the one 674 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,279 Speaker 1: touchdown drive at the end of the game, and more 675 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 1: at the thirty nine yard catch, and it it just it, 676 00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 1: dolphense is just not working. It's it's and you guys 677 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:56,879 Speaker 1: know it was Mark. I know you're not gonna say this, 678 00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 1: I don't think because maybe you can't judge it. But 679 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:03,600 Speaker 1: I'm going back to all the offenses I've seen, going 680 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:06,120 Speaker 1: back since I started covering the NFL here and I 681 00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 1: was looking at the worst Oilers offenses and this one 682 00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 1: and I've never seen one worst than this. And the turnovers, 683 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:16,759 Speaker 1: the turnovers making even worse. It's one thing if you 684 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:20,279 Speaker 1: were punting all the time, but when you're helping me 685 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:25,239 Speaker 1: posing offense as much as this one is, it's something else. 686 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:27,800 Speaker 1: And I started thinking about the offseason. I'm writing a 687 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 1: column about Nicks Saria this week from Gallery sports dot 688 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:34,799 Speaker 1: Com about people saying he should be fired, and I'm 689 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,320 Speaker 1: saying why he's in the second year of a rebuild. 690 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 1: You know, he's not calling the plays. You know he 691 00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:43,720 Speaker 1: didn't he's not throwing the passes, and they finally finally 692 00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:48,160 Speaker 1: have a lot of draft choices and they have cap money. 693 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,920 Speaker 1: And I'm talking where I sit in the press boxes 694 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,960 Speaker 1: close to the scouts, and the scouts have told me 695 00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,839 Speaker 1: they're impressed with the picks the Texans made this year, 696 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 1: and those guys, you know, giving side development, they were 697 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:04,560 Speaker 1: really talking about Christian Harris. So I like to hear 698 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 1: voices outside that don't you know, don't have a dog 699 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 1: in the hunt. And I think this offseason is going 700 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:14,919 Speaker 1: to be very exciting. But the rest of the season, then, 701 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 1: I just with this offense playing the way it is, 702 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:22,240 Speaker 1: I've just never seen one this unproductive the third downs. 703 00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 1: I mean, Mike goodness, they've been the worst third down 704 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,400 Speaker 1: team all year. Mills was the worst third down quarterback, 705 00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,840 Speaker 1: and I'm guessing Alan is too. You know, eight percent 706 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 1: on third down. You're not gonna get a lot of 707 00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 1: accomplished when you're eight point excuse me, eight point five 708 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 1: eight point three percent on third down. And they just 709 00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:45,239 Speaker 1: can't stay on the field. And I feel bad for 710 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 1: the defense. The offense, to me, has more talent than 711 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:51,000 Speaker 1: the defense, but of course it's missing at the most 712 00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 1: important position on the team. And hopefully that Necessario can 713 00:42:56,600 --> 00:43:01,560 Speaker 1: rectify that offseason. Absolutely agree, General, one thousand percent, all right, 714 00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:04,120 Speaker 1: big thanks to General, to Andre Were, to Mark Vanimir, 715 00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:06,520 Speaker 1: to all of you for listening. Thank you so much. 716 00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:08,720 Speaker 1: My guy Kass Santiago will see them row and everybody 717 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:09,920 Speaker 1: and has always go Texans.
