1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,759 Speaker 1: With your Houston Texans That would be Texans All Access 2 00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:06,400 Speaker 1: here from the Hunday Texans Radio studio inside NRG Stadium, 3 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:09,039 Speaker 1: across the hall from the locker room. I'm Mark Vandermayer. 4 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,520 Speaker 1: John Harris with me tonight. Johnny, how are you. I'm well. 5 00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:16,959 Speaker 1: You mentioned the keyword inside inside inside. Yes, it was 6 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,160 Speaker 1: outside today and it was a training camp weather, Houston 7 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:22,720 Speaker 1: training camp weather. But it was good to see the 8 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,480 Speaker 1: guys out there practicing today, so we'll have some comments 9 00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 1: on that. We'll also have Kendall Lamb on the show. 10 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:31,639 Speaker 1: He's trying to re establish himself as a tackle on 11 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:33,560 Speaker 1: this team. Let's see what happens with him as training 12 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,600 Speaker 1: camp gets here. And Brad Seeley, the special teams coordinator, 13 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: what about that kickoff rule? What about other aspects of 14 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 1: special teams play? He's new here, but he's been around 15 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,159 Speaker 1: the block many times in the National Football League. Big 16 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 1: addition for his coaching staff in an area that really 17 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 1: needs some improvement. Watching at practice today, I think something 18 00:00:55,120 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: just watching them work through the kickoff rules. It's I'm 19 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: trying to think of the right analogy here, but they're 20 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 1: they're having to really learned this all on the fly. Yeah, 21 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:11,040 Speaker 1: and have to adjust their philosophy sort of on the 22 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: fly with these new kickoff rules. And I think this 23 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:16,399 Speaker 1: is going to continue all the way through preseason and 24 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,319 Speaker 1: maybe all the way through the first half of the season. 25 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: Like what you can do, how you can do it, 26 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: how other teams are doing it. I'm this is I've 27 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: never been more fascinated about a particular rule change as 28 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: I am this one, just to see how teams are 29 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: going to really attack this. But just watching it today, 30 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 1: it looks weird. There's no run up. You just see 31 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 1: the kicker balls booted and then the players takeoff. Yeah, 32 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 1: it's just it just looks weird. I'm just gonna and 33 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: I can say bad or good. It just looks weird. 34 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: We're not used to it. No run up is strange 35 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: because and for those listening, just imagine this, what does 36 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: a kickoff look like? Think of an opening kickoff. Everybody 37 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: runs up and in unison, they're running and as the 38 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: kicker kicks the ball, they're all crossing the same yard 39 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: line the thirty five together. Well, now they have to 40 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: line up at the thirty five wait till the ball 41 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: is snapped so to speak. It's not snapped it's kicked, 42 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 1: but they gotta watch that ball. You can get off 43 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 1: sides very easily in this situation, and it's easier to 44 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: catch than ever. I think there were a lot of 45 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: off sides that were, you know, close enough, kind of 46 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: like Canadian football receivers running across the line of scrimmage 47 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: as the ball is snapped. A lot of you know, 48 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: close calls, but it was okay, now, no, oh, you 49 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: cannot go until that ball is kicked, and I think 50 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: that's gonna be. That was the one thing you worked 51 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: a lot on with kickoff team was the timing when 52 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 1: the kicker would make his run up. When did you 53 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 1: want to start towards the line of scrimmage If you were, 54 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: when when did you get that opportunity to start? And 55 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: then taking that into account with the way that teams 56 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: approached it last year, would they kind of coughing corner 57 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 1: that thing like right at the pylon to force them 58 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: to run it out or would they just say not 59 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 1: just bang it through the end zone and let them 60 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 1: start at the twenty five. So take that strategy combined 61 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: with these rule changes, and how does it change the 62 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: kickoff I'm I'm really, I'm really curious. I Bill O'Brien 63 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,959 Speaker 1: and with Triple Threat last weekend or last Friday, I 64 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: think it was, and they asked him about it, and 65 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: he said, look, I want to I want to make 66 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: sure that the kickoff stays in the game of football. 67 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: So I hope these rule changes get them where they 68 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: want to go. There's still gonna be some violent collisions. 69 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 1: That's people you should say all the time. Football is 70 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 1: a contact sport. No Football's a collision sports. So you're 71 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: still gonna have those collisions. Hopefully they're minimized such to 72 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: a point that you can keep the kickoff around. But 73 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: I'm really curious to see how this changes things, how 74 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: it changes strategy. I've never looked forward to kicking game 75 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: changes more than I have this one. You know, when anyway, 76 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: you and I talked about this when that change was 77 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: made from the extra point from the three yard line 78 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: all the way back to the fifteen. We talked about 79 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: that for a long time and we've seen the impact 80 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: of that. Sure that that was a sea change in 81 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: the kicking game for sure. This one even more so. 82 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: I just think from a strategy perspective, it becomes that 83 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: much more. I'm really curious to see how this plays out. 84 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: So I think preseason games are gonna be really interesting 85 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: to watch, and not just the Texans, but then watch 86 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: what the four punts are doing two to go, oh, yeah, 87 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: they're doing this. Like kind of liked that. In fact, 88 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: brat seely hinted on that when we visited with him 89 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: about what are other teams doing, we might not know. Well, 90 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: we've visited with the Texans special teams coordinator here on 91 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: the Hunday Texans Radio studio. How's it going to coach? 92 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: It's going really well. You know. It love spring practice 93 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: because you can come off every every practice and say 94 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: it was awesome. It was Yeah, there's no video evidence 95 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: on TV, so we can say we did really well. 96 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,839 Speaker 1: I was watching you coach today though, thinking you must 97 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: be chopping at the bit to get real live in 98 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,039 Speaker 1: pads actually to see how this kickoff stuff works, see 99 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: what you have here to work with. Overall, no doubt, 100 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 1: you know, I think the preseason is so huge in 101 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 1: special teams, you know, because we got a lot of 102 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: young guys. Those guys got to learn what to do, 103 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 1: how to do it, and kind of a game situation. 104 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 1: So it's hard to get that done in a practice field, 105 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: specially when you're out there in our pajamas. Coach, I 106 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: often think about this, and I don't know if this 107 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: has often talked about the transition from preseason special teams 108 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 1: to Week one regular season special teams. How tough a 109 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: transition is that, because, like you said, you got a 110 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: lot of young guys fighting for spots on rosters. Those 111 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: guys that are on special teams may not make the roster. 112 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: So now all of a sudden you get the Week one. 113 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 1: You got a lot of guys that may have not 114 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: been practicing together. How tough is that transition from preseason 115 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:35,600 Speaker 1: to week one to special teams? It's huge in special teams. 116 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 1: What we say is the first three weeks and the 117 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,720 Speaker 1: last three weeks of the season, you'll see more big 118 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: plays on special teams than you will any other time 119 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: of the year, just because you got guys out there 120 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 1: that haven't played, or guys that haven't done much, because 121 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: they're the veteran guys that, okay, we need you now 122 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,280 Speaker 1: you got to play because we thought this guy was 123 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: gonna make our team and he didn't, you know, or 124 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: somebody got an injury there at the end and we 125 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: had let that guy go, we kept somebody else, and 126 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: so there's a lot of mixing and matching there early 127 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: in the season. So it's you hold your breath a 128 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: little bit. Special Teams coordinator Brad Ceey with us on 129 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: Texans Radio. What about the kickoff rule? What can you 130 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: share with us about some of the challenges or aspects 131 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: about it you have to undertake so far? Well, you know, 132 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 1: I think it's it's like anything with a new rule, 133 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 1: it's the unknown, you know. I don't think we know 134 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 1: exactly what's going to happen. We're trying to simulate as 135 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: much as we can in practice with the kickoff players, 136 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 1: for instance, they've simplified that in a way, but there's 137 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: no run up. So now it's it's how fast can 138 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: you go from a standing start? Almost, and so that's 139 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: gonna help the kickoff return. But now we've put all 140 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 1: those blockers up closer. We don't have wedge players, so 141 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 1: we've taken that element out of the game. So I 142 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 1: think there's just a lot of unknowns that you know. 143 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: It's to me, we were talking about the other day, 144 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: I'm you know, your biggest concern as you get to 145 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 1: the first game of the season and you watch the 146 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: other team and you go, oh, I never thought about that. 147 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: You know, it's the stuff that you just don't know. Yeah, 148 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 1: do you anticipate personnel changes? You talked about the wedge guys. 149 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: We used to see those big four linemen, and then 150 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: that got reduced it to how do you anticipate personnel 151 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 1: changes as in more dvs and linebackers versus tight ends, 152 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: big guys? How do you look at that? Very much? So, 153 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 1: you know, those wedge players used to always come from 154 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: your backup defensive line, your backup offensive line. And in fact, 155 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: in the early in the spring before the rule got passed, 156 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: we had those guys in our kickoff return meeting, and 157 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: then the rule got changed, and it was like, hey, fellas, 158 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: you guys can go. You're not gonna play anymore, you know. 159 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: So it's it's gonna be different. It's gonna be a change, 160 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: and you know, who can adapt best to those changes 161 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: is going to have an advantage early in the season. 162 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: What about return guys this time of year and early 163 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: in camp, what are you looking for from that? Because 164 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: that's another when the lights go on kind of situation. 165 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: It really is, you know. But the first thing you 166 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: got to find out is can they catch the ball? 167 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: And how good are they at catching the ball? Because 168 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: if you can't do that, you can't be the return er, 169 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: whether it's pun or kickoff. And you gotta be a 170 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: guy that's got a cool head. You gotta have a 171 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: cool head. You can't get nervous back there. You gotta 172 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: understand the situations. And some of that you can find 173 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: out in the spring, but most of it you don't 174 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 1: find out till the lights go on and the scoreboards on. Coach, 175 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 1: when you're looking at a core four special team or 176 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 1: a guy that's on all four, I mean maybe he's 177 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: just on one special team. Who knows. But what is 178 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: the biggest attribute you're looking for and that kind of player. 179 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: That's a great question, you know. I think we talk 180 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: about three things. You gotta either be smart, you gotta 181 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: be tough, you gotta be fast, and you could have 182 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: all three. Now you got something special, but you better 183 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: have at least one of those things. And if you 184 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: don't have any of those characteristics or traits, you're gonna 185 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,319 Speaker 1: have a hard time in a kicking game. Shane Lechler 186 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: has been in the league for one hundred years now, 187 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: and what do you say to him, because I look 188 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 1: at golfers, they always have a swing coach, So does 189 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: he kind of need some swing coaching? Sometimes? How do 190 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 1: you handle a guy like Leckler? That's a great question too, 191 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: you know, in the sense that, shoot, this guy's doing 192 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:01,959 Speaker 1: it forever, and he's been doing it at a high 193 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,199 Speaker 1: level for a long time. But what you try to 194 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: do is you just try to watch his swing, and 195 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: I ask I always ask those guys because I've coached 196 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: a lot of older guys, and hey, what's the things 197 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,559 Speaker 1: you worry about most. I'll watch those for you, and 198 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: I'll let you know if you're doing them, you know. 199 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,839 Speaker 1: And so I'm really just kind of coaching off of 200 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 1: what he thinks his problems are, because he already knows. 201 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: He knows, you know, he can tell you immediately when 202 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,719 Speaker 1: he hits a bad ball what happened, for the most part, 203 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: but sometimes it'll be well you could have done this maybe, 204 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,719 Speaker 1: and oh yeah, yeah, maybe that's true, you know. So 205 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: I think it's just another set of eyes on a 206 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 1: guy's form and his technique, and you just try to 207 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: put a little input in there. If he's Willie and 208 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:43,959 Speaker 1: Shane's great, he's he's always open to coaching and listening 209 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: and trying to do what anything we ask him to do. Coach. 210 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: Being here in Houston, the decision to come here. What 211 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: made the Houston Texans attractive to you? Well, I think 212 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 1: number one is the organization. I think you got a 213 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,719 Speaker 1: really good organization. Bill O'Brien, I coach with him in 214 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,439 Speaker 1: New England. I know what kind of person he is. 215 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: I know what kind of guy is. I know what 216 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 1: kind of football coach he is, and that's the kind 217 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,079 Speaker 1: of guy I wanted to work for. And so that 218 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: made it easy. And uh, I felt like with a quarterback, 219 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 1: you know, as a special teams coach, you know, I 220 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 1: don't coach a quarterback. That's probably the only guy don't coach, 221 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 1: but I'm always looking to see if we have one, 222 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 1: you know, it helps. Yes, I understand, it doesn't matter 223 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:23,199 Speaker 1: how good you are in the kiding game if you 224 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: don't have a quarterback. And we got a quarterback. So 225 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: that that was an intriguing thing to me along those lines, 226 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 1: having a quarterback like that, Does that change the philosophy 227 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: in some sense in the way that you approach things 228 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: on special teams at all? Uh? You know, I think 229 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 1: it just changes the situations. You know, we could. Uh, again, 230 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: it depends on how good your offense is. You know, 231 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 1: if your offense is great, now you're gonna be kicking 232 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: more field goals and you are a punt so you're 233 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: gonna work on that area maybe a little bit more. 234 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: You know, the field position is going to change because 235 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,439 Speaker 1: your offense is moving the ball. Now you're gonna punt 236 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: when you do punt maybe from the midfield area, So 237 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: you got to work more on plus plus fifty puny. Uh. 238 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: You know, so those those situations change versus you know, 239 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,959 Speaker 1: if you don't have a quarterback, you gotta work on 240 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 1: a lot of punts backed up two more. For you, 241 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 1: you've coached a lot of kickers. What about the mental 242 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 1: aspect of being a kicker, because often they need that 243 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: kind of guidance or whatever. How do you handle that? 244 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 1: You know? Uh, I think that's a kind of an 245 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,839 Speaker 1: inborn thing for kids, you know, I think, and again 246 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,719 Speaker 1: not kids, they're men. But uh, the guys that are 247 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: really successful in the NFL, they're like corners. You know, 248 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: they miss a kick, they put it, they put it 249 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:36,959 Speaker 1: behind them, they go to the next one. The guys 250 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: that think about that kick. Think about the miss. They're 251 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: gonna do something on the next one that's gonna try 252 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 1: to change that. And now they're gonna miss again. And 253 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: those are the guys that they don't They don't last 254 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: very long in the NFL. They gotta have a short memory. 255 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,959 Speaker 1: You got to go back there and trust what you do, 256 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: and you got to go out there and uh really 257 00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 1: you block everything out and man, you gotta it's one 258 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 1: of the hardest jobs in football. People don't understand that. 259 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: You know, if you got a choice, be a punter, 260 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: you know, be a punter instead of a kicker, because 261 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: those kickers many they're gonna win and lose four or 262 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,319 Speaker 1: five games a year for you, wow, one or more 263 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:18,199 Speaker 1: on punt returners, the decision whether to fair cash, return it, 264 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 1: let it go. How tough is that to coach those 265 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 1: guys on. It's tough, especially a young guy. You know, 266 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 1: we are practicing the other day. We had Kiki out there, 267 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,959 Speaker 1: you know, and he had a high ball and shoot, 268 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 1: he put his hand up quick to fair catch it. 269 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: He goes coaching ball was high. I go, well, you're 270 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: gonna see a lot of high balls, right. There's a 271 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 1: lot of good punters in this league versus college players, 272 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 1: So you can't make that decision that fast. We're gonna 273 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:43,959 Speaker 1: try to block them. I don't care how high the 274 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: ball is, So wait and see if there's anybody close 275 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: to you. Coach, thanks a lot for joining us, Good luck, 276 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 1: my pleasure. Thanks philis. All right, there's Brad Selley, who, 277 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:52,599 Speaker 1: like I said, has been around the block in the 278 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: NFL plenty of times in New England among the stops 279 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: for him. So great to have him on board area 280 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: of improvement for the Tech since that's what they're looking 281 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: for with the new special team's coordinator. Okay, getting to 282 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: this now, a lot of people want to know about 283 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: the Shan Watson, how he looked at practice today. Ian 284 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: Rappaport came up with a ridiculous tweet. Now half of 285 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:16,319 Speaker 1: it was ridiculous. He tweeted that Watson and Watt were 286 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: unlikely to be on pup when training camp begins. Yeah, 287 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,719 Speaker 1: first of all, Watson is doing stuff at practice right 288 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 1: now that would not be allowed if he were on pup. 289 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: If you're on pup, you're not practicing, right He's practicing. 290 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: He's not doing everything, but he's practicing. So to say 291 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: that Watson won't be on p and won't be on pup. 292 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: It's like saying he won't be traded. I mean, come on, 293 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: it's not gonna happen. So he'll be there at training 294 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 1: camp practicing. We just hope it's full go instead of 295 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 1: seven on sevens an individual work like it is right now. Yeah, 296 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: that's but that's been the story all along. I mean, 297 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:55,079 Speaker 1: I'm not sure where this tweet came from. Like, it 298 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: doesn't It doesn't make any sense to me, to be honest, right, 299 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: because everything has been on track for for Deshaun in 300 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: particular to be ready the first day of training camp, 301 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: to be ready for training camp to be able. I mean, 302 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: Bill A. Briant just said it a little while ago 303 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 1: in his little press count for chapter practice. You know 304 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,199 Speaker 1: that's the next transition when we get to Greenbrier and 305 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 1: training camp starts and he can join us for eleven. 306 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: Let me, he said it right there. I don't understand 307 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: this tweet. I really don't with what I get it though, 308 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: because with what he's out practicing, right, it is nice 309 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: to that he's unlikely to be on PUP when training camp. 310 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: He gets that's fine with Watson. It's obvious he's not 311 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: going to be on PUP. Okay, so to that point. Yeah, 312 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 1: maybe this is for a different segment. But last night 313 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: I did Bold Predictions with Dpcity and I said, I said, okay, DP, 314 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 1: here you can tell me that I'm close to the 315 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: truth or I'm just way off. Here's my bold prediction. 316 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 1: Andrew Luck starts the year on PUP. He can't come 317 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: back until I think week nine. At that point the 318 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 1: cults are one and seven. They shut him down for 319 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 1: a second straight year. Closer to truth or you think 320 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 1: now there's no way that'll happen. I think that could 321 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 1: be closer to the truth. But somebody disagrees. Who's related 322 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 1: to Andrew Luck? And we'll talk about that next. Among 323 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: other things, Kendall Lamb will join us. We'll talk about 324 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: one of the NFL greats, a guy who's part of 325 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: the greatest highlight in the history of the league, in 326 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 1: my opinion, will debate that passing away. Let's do it 327 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: all here on Texans Radio. Mark Vandermayer, John Harris with 328 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 1: you in the Hunday Texans Radio studio.

By the way, my Vandermeer's View 334 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 1: podcast blew up the one I did with dB on 335 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: My Life Story because I want to promote myself. No, 336 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: I'm just kidding about that. I wanted to draw attention 337 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: to what it took to get into the broadcast industry 338 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: because I get asked that all the time. And there's 339 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: some job search tips on there as well. So that's 340 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 1: for your listening. I don't want to say pleasure. It 341 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: just sounds to self serving. You're listening information later on, 342 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: I listen. I listened to the various podcasts. You're the 343 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: podcast that I have found that I like the most. 344 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: Mind is when well, well yeah, duh. When people tell 345 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 1: their stories. Yeah. And I'm not talking like well there's 346 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: this one time, no, When they tell their story of 347 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 1: how they got to where they are. Yeah, I think 348 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: I think your story is fascinating how you got to 349 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: where you are, Because everybody's like, well man, he's to 350 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: voice the Texans, how do you get there? What do 351 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: you have? To do well, You're gonna have to you 352 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 1: have to grind in central Pennsylvania for a little while. 353 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: You might have to do some my school basketball, or 354 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 1: there might be ten people in the stands. Those are 355 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: the kind of thing. I listened to the Mark Marin 356 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: podcast with Lissa McCarthy and kind of talked about her 357 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: whole story and how she has sent got to the 358 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: point where it broke open for her. She literally was 359 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,399 Speaker 1: one week away from just saying, you know what, I'm 360 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,640 Speaker 1: going behind the camera. I'm just I'm going behind the camera. 361 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 1: And one week before her thirtieth birthday, she said, if 362 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: I got to thirty and I didn't have a good 363 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 1: on camera gig, I'm done. I'm just going to the product. 364 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 1: I'm going to the production side. She'd had some success 365 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 1: with that, She's going to production side. One week before 366 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: thirtieth birthday, she got the gig for Gilmore Girls only 367 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 1: because one of her other acting group buddies couldn't do it, 368 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 1: couldn't get out of her mad TV contract to do it. 369 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 1: So they said, well what do we do? I said, 370 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,640 Speaker 1: We'll ask Lissa, my friend Lista, She'll do it. She'd 371 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: become Sukie or Suki or whatever she was, and I 372 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: never rejected to it. But that's I love those podcasts. 373 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: I can listen to those stories, so I can see 374 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: why people would love to listen to that. I forgot 375 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: all about mad TV too, Oh my gosh, mad TV. 376 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,239 Speaker 1: I remember that. Yep, Saturday nights and there was there 377 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: was Yeah, there was a woman that couldn't get out 378 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: of her contract. And for that reason, that's why I'm 379 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: Wlissa mccarthury got in front of the camera for her. 380 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 1: All right, business that we have to take care of here, 381 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:04,879 Speaker 1: Andrew luck First of all, Oliver is going to be 382 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: commissioner of the XFL. Yeah, and if you don't know, 383 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: Oliver is Andrew's dad. For those that don't know, lived 384 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:12,920 Speaker 1: here in Houston for many years. Was a quarterback for 385 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:17,440 Speaker 1: the Oilers. He ran MLS for a while, ran the 386 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 1: Dynamo for a while. Didn't he run the whole league 387 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: for a while. I want to say I think he did, 388 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 1: and the NCAA. I mean, the guy has been around 389 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 1: the block z ad A, West Virginia. There were some 390 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 1: rumors that he was going to end up being a 391 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 1: d at some point Uiversity of Texas, but no, he 392 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 1: is now the commissioner of the XFL, which if you 393 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:36,639 Speaker 1: remember the XFL, this is the XFL two point zero, 394 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: but going to be completely different, I guess. But it's 395 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:45,439 Speaker 1: still the Vince McMahon run yeah organization. So but they 396 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 1: need a commissioner, I guess, and Oliver Luck is that commissioner. 397 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: And he's good. He's good. And he was asked by 398 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 1: Vike Florio about Andrew Luck and he said, Andrew's fine, 399 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: and that's really all he would say. Andrew's fine. That's 400 00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: I don't feel very good from Accolts fan list in 401 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: that I don't. I just he's not even throwing market OTAs. 402 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: He's not even throwing a football. I just said you 403 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,679 Speaker 1: during a break. We go to the Greenbrier next month, yea, 404 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 1: next month's training camp starts, and if he can't throw 405 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 1: a full I just don't know how in the next 406 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 1: I just think about the process of throwing a football, 407 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: and obviously Andrew knows it better than I do because 408 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: he played quarterback. But just knowing that process, I can't 409 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 1: imagine if he started today. Just I'm throwing the football today, June, 410 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: what is it, sixth fifth, whatever it is, he started 411 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 1: throwing the football today you're not gonna feel like you're 412 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: really at a competent throwing level, just throwing the duke 413 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: as he called it, or whoever asked him that you're 414 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: not gonna feel good for about two months, two and 415 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: a half, three months, that's to shout into the season. Yeah, 416 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 1: that's why I made a pup thing. I think you're right. 417 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 1: I think it's it's gonna be a start on pup 418 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 1: kind of situation and he might come back great, Yeah, 419 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 1: he might do it, But you're right with out throwing 420 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 1: right now, how long does it take you to ramp 421 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 1: up and develop all those little tiny muscles to be 422 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 1: accurate to be him? He's phenomenal. I mean, the guy 423 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:10,400 Speaker 1: is a total terror on the field to the opponent. 424 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: So you wish him the best as a person for 425 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: the cult's sake, Take all the time you need, thank you. Yeah. Well, 426 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,639 Speaker 1: you know, I watched the twenty sixteen game, the comeback 427 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 1: game yesterday because i'd heard some things on the radio 428 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,399 Speaker 1: head scratch AND's like, I don't think that's right. Let 429 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:28,879 Speaker 1: me go watch. So I was watching a game for 430 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: a couple of Texans, and invariably, you can't take your 431 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 1: eyes off him. You can't take your eyes off Luck 432 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: because you're seeing him make throws and you're like, oh, 433 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 1: that's a good throw. Oh man, that's a great throw. 434 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 1: Oh my god, you don't like facing this guy, and 435 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 1: then you realize how good he actually is and you realize, yeah, 436 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 1: teams do have a definite advantage when he's off the field. 437 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: There's no question, compounded by the fact that that roster 438 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 1: is completely different than what it had been up to 439 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 1: that point when they were going to AFC Championship game 440 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 1: in twenty fourteen, that rosters could pletely different from that 441 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:04,360 Speaker 1: point forward. So yes, it helps everybody Andrew Luck's not there. 442 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 1: I want to see Andrew Luck get back because I 443 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 1: like Oliver and I've been a fan of Andrew because 444 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 1: he's in Texas, state of Texas quarterback that has succeeded. 445 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: He's a great guy, he's a great ambassador for the game. 446 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 1: I think he does great things in the community in Indianapolis. 447 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 1: And yes, it is the Colts, but I want to 448 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:22,880 Speaker 1: see him back. I want to be able to beat 449 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 1: the Colts when he's back. That said, when he's not 450 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,399 Speaker 1: on the field, that team is and no knock on 451 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissette He's no Andrew Luck. He doesn't scare me 452 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 1: the way Andrew Luck does. Even though he's three and 453 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,880 Speaker 1: oh against the Texans. A full bodied Houston Texans team 454 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: is not losing Jacoby Brissette anymore. By the way, that 455 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: game quarterback by Brockos Wilder, that come back against the 456 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 1: Colts in twenty sixteen, we all remember that on a 457 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: Sunday night nationally televised showcase. So I'm gonna do a 458 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 1: podcast with Sage Rosenfels. Okay, he's the number one all 459 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 1: time completion percentage holder in the history of the team. 460 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:02,360 Speaker 1: Now still still Shop barely behind him at sixty four. Well, 461 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: shops not catching him. Shop's not gonna catch him. Nobody's 462 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,360 Speaker 1: gonna Well, I don't want to say nobody, but Deshaun's 463 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 1: at sixty one and change after year one he's in 464 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: the top five. But it was interesting to me how 465 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 1: Rosenfels is third in touchdowns, third in yards, first in 466 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 1: completion percentage on the all time Texans list. We sometimes 467 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: forget about how much football he played. It was it 468 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,880 Speaker 1: a ton, But when you look at Brock who played 469 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,680 Speaker 1: a lot, who played more games than Rosenfels but doesn't 470 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: have as many yards because car is second. Obviously, it's 471 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 1: interesting just to point that out. Yeah, watching watching the 472 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 1: Texans offense, and I was focused more on the Texans 473 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: defense called players on defense, but I did watch the 474 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: offense operate. And you know what's interesting about it is, 475 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:51,160 Speaker 1: as I'm watching, I'm like, man, where's hop Where's Hopkins? 476 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: It just he was there and he was playing, but 477 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 1: he just wasn't the focal point that he was last 478 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: year or in twenty fifteen. Interest. It just I watched 479 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:03,480 Speaker 1: and watched the first five plays of a particular series. 480 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,880 Speaker 1: I'm like, man, where's Hapkins? But Will Hapkins like what's 481 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 1: going on? You know? And it was just weird to 482 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,119 Speaker 1: go back and watch that. But we're beyond that, and 483 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 1: you know, hopefully to Seann will one day be the 484 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 1: completion percentage leader being sixty four plus. And I think 485 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:19,400 Speaker 1: that's a good number for him to get. He gets 486 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: the sixty four, he gets a sixty four percent completion. 487 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 1: This this Texans offense is taken off. Oh, I think 488 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 1: he's gonna get there. I think he will be there. Naturally, 489 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: let me ask you this before we get to Kendall Lamb. 490 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 1: A couple of things I know You'll go into greater 491 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 1: detail on this tomorrow during the program. But a couple 492 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,640 Speaker 1: of things that stood out to you about practice as 493 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: you watched it out at the Houston Methodist Training Center. Yeah, 494 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 1: I you know, No, there are a few players that 495 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 1: weren't out there today Coach mentioned. Is funny because I 496 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 1: noticed this the last ota and when Coach said this 497 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:54,959 Speaker 1: on Friday when he was on triple threat, to ask him, 498 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:56,399 Speaker 1: you know a couple of players that are maybe standing 499 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,439 Speaker 1: out that maybe nobody, nobody really knows. He brought up 500 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 1: running back Tremay Pope, who joined the practice squad. I 501 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: knew it late, halfway to late, and I'm trying to 502 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:11,639 Speaker 1: think halfway through the season. And he's a diminutive guy, short, 503 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 1: but he is queer number thirty three, a lot of lightning. 504 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 1: He's lightning quick, catches the ball we out of the backfield, 505 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 1: can make him miss in space. He's gonna be a 506 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 1: very interesting factor in this running game. And we're still 507 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 1: waiting for Tyler Ivan to come back, and I would 508 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 1: I would think that Tyler's gonna be ready to go 509 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: to training camp. But Pope has given him some really 510 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 1: good reps and that was good to see one of 511 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:38,120 Speaker 1: the interesting because interrupt you right there. If Rappaport's gonna 512 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 1: put out a health tweet, I want to know about 513 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: Irvin and Nick Martin and people like that. Yeah, then 514 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 1: nobody's really been talking about anyway. Play the hits. Apparently 515 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: the the other one, Alfred Blue came back to this squad, 516 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 1: And I know Alfred Blue for some people like why 517 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,719 Speaker 1: do they keep bringing him back? Like I don't think 518 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 1: people understand the value of a player like Alfred Blue. Right. 519 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: The one thing that I saw Alfred do today that 520 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: I think he got better with and has gotten better 521 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:06,399 Speaker 1: with over the years. But I saw him today and 522 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember who he's working against, but he 523 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 1: completely lost somebody in a pass route, just ran a 524 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 1: route ran up to him, frozen cut across the middle 525 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 1: of wide open catch, took off up the field, and 526 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,159 Speaker 1: I thought, that's a different looking out for Blue to 527 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:23,360 Speaker 1: be able to add that element to it, that receiving 528 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:27,160 Speaker 1: element is was I was like, Wow, he knows he's 529 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,120 Speaker 1: got to do it. Yeah, he Oh, absolutely, there's no question. 530 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 1: I mean he understood. I think at the end of 531 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: last year that there he had a I think a 532 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: high level of Okay, I may not be here, high 533 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,120 Speaker 1: level understanding that I might not be here. What I'm 534 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: putting on a tape is for thirty one of their 535 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 1: teams to watch and see what they think about me. 536 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 1: And I think the Texans where that thirty second team 537 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: that ended up saying, yeah, we sort of like what 538 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 1: we saw and if you can build off of that, 539 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 1: maybe there's an opportunity here. And Deante Foreman's not getting 540 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 1: any reps, obviously he's banged up. We mentioned Tyler Irvan 541 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 1: so So Blues getting a lot of reps, of course, 542 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: and I thought he looked pretty good in the passing game, 543 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: which is not one thing I thought I would ever 544 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:07,159 Speaker 1: really say, because wh we think about Alfred, we think 545 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 1: about what we think about hammering taking up some of 546 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 1: those eating innings, if you will, by getting those and 547 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 1: playing special teams. So those are the things we talked about. 548 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 1: But man, if he adds something in the passing game, 549 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: I thought that was I thought that was pretty interesting. 550 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 1: One of the other things that I noticed, I thought 551 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 1: it was there was a play in practice where I 552 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: think it was seven on seven and one of the 553 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 1: running backs the defense had mixed up the coverage and 554 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: two guys had gone with a deep crosser and the 555 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 1: running back just kind of floated out. I don't even 556 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: know if he was really part of the part of 557 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 1: the pattern. And so DeShawn drops back and he reads 558 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 1: it and he sees it and he looks out and 559 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 1: running backs wide up and he's like, I'll take it, 560 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:46,920 Speaker 1: and he just threw it. Screw it to him, and 561 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 1: there's nobody there. And Bill O'Briant was standing on that 562 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 1: side of the field like this coach of Brian looking 563 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 1: at him like he kind of shrugged his shoulders like, 564 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 1: I guess he's wide open. So I mean it just 565 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 1: I didn't hear him, but I could just hear. I 566 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: was thinking about what he was saying. That was and 567 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 1: seven on seven I'd like to see them. And Seawan 568 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 1: does of all the quarterbacks that I've seen for the 569 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,400 Speaker 1: Texans work he challenges down does he does challenge downfield. 570 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,959 Speaker 1: He doesn't take the check down if that's he doesn't. 571 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 1: But he was so wide open he just want I 572 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: gotta take it. And you can just see coach and 573 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 1: Brown like, yeah, I guess you did the right thing. 574 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 1: He's wide open. And it was just funny to see 575 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 1: his reaction. That used to drive me nuts. Watch some 576 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 1: of the quarterbacks here exactly they take checkdowns. I know 577 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 1: it's a part of the game. You gotta do it. 578 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: But if there's a time, I always feel like, if 579 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,120 Speaker 1: there's a time to make mistakes and worse things, it's 580 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: out here. Yeah, to know what works what doesn't. Is 581 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: there a place I could put the ball one foot 582 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 1: out in front of him if he's dragging across where 583 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:40,679 Speaker 1: it's not gonna get picked, where only he can make 584 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 1: a play. Let me practice and work on those things. 585 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 1: Now that's just me talking. Maybe there's a whole other 586 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 1: philosophy behind it. One other things I saw to Sean 587 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,119 Speaker 1: do today, and I'm always fascinated by this. And to me, 588 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,879 Speaker 1: Matt Stafford is the absolute king. Matt Stafford is the 589 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:57,680 Speaker 1: change the armslot king. He is like they're gonna be 590 00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: somebody coming and he can drop down and go side 591 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: on him and flick it. Dashawn today went back to throw, 592 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,160 Speaker 1: and he cocked his arm as if he were gonna throw, 593 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 1: and it wasn't quite where he wanted to be, But 594 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:09,880 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, boom, it was right there. 595 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:11,879 Speaker 1: And so he had already cocked his arm and kind 596 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 1: of brought the arm back and then all of a 597 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 1: sudden went and kind of flicked it yeah, and completed 598 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 1: it to receiver going across, and I thought, and not 599 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,880 Speaker 1: just a shallow crosser. I'm talking about about a twelve 600 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 1: fifteen yard en route right, and he had kind of 601 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 1: cocked it and before he could even bring it all 602 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,399 Speaker 1: the way back and kind of wind up again, he 603 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 1: is just real short, just boom boom and got it out. 604 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 1: I thought, Wow, I don't remember him ever doing something 605 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,719 Speaker 1: talent like that. I was to know your body can 606 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: do that. I just thought, man, because to me, that's 607 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 1: a reload. I think about other quarterbacks that Texas have 608 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 1: had that is it's not there to pump. I gotta 609 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: bring it all the way back and reload later. And 610 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: he's lighting, guys, I'm gonna throw it and then nope, 611 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: and then it just it was so interesting to watch 612 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 1: him do that because I didn't really think that was 613 00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 1: something in his repertoire, but he obviously is showing that 614 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 1: it is. That just quick release to get it out there, 615 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: and he ended up completing the pass and I'm convinced 616 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 1: that he brought all the way back and there's no 617 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 1: way he would have had to eat it at that point. 618 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: But just to see him do something a little different 619 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 1: than he had done or had shown before was look 620 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 1: everything he does as a promising sign at this point. 621 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 1: But it definitely was that. For sure, I feel like 622 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: the ball comes out quick. That's no surprise with him, 623 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 1: I feel like with Wheaton, and I know it's OTAs. 624 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go crazy over weedon here, but the 625 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 1: ball appears to be coming out quickly for me, for me, 626 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 1: because that's why they do things, Johnny, for me, yeah, 627 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: it feels like the ball is coming out quickly. Well, 628 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 1: I think we talked about this a little bit. It's 629 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 1: sort of like being a fielder behind a pitch that 630 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: works fast. Yeah, it just the ball coming out quickly, 631 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: the ball coming out on time. Everybody is where they 632 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 1: need to be. They're not adjusting routes, they're not breaking 633 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: off the route, they're not going in a different direction, 634 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: they're running the route. Balls there, boom. Everybody reacts and 635 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 1: I think everybody plays better. And because they're reacting accordingly 636 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 1: to the ball getting out on time. With the balls 637 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 1: being held, then the receivers are like, what do I 638 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 1: do do I freeze? Do I not do I do? 639 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 1: I start moving back towards him. What do I do here? 640 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: But if the ball's coming out, you're just running your 641 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 1: routes and you're going, and you're going, and you go, 642 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: and you find up finding a rhythm with that. And 643 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: when you do that, and your offense can go to 644 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 1: a lot of different directions and hopefully that's where they're going. 645 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:19,480 Speaker 1: Coming up next, Kendall Lamb. Also we'll talk about Dwight Clark. 646 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 1: Let's do it on Texans Radio. It's a beautiful night 647 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 1: in Houston. Look. I like it hot, all right, and 648 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 1: it happens to rain. That's a good thing too. So 649 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:41,959 Speaker 1: I'm I'm a big fan of summertime. I just am 650 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: here mark fan of Marion. John Harris with you, Yeah, 651 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: I like I like the heat. I said last year 652 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 1: after after Hurricane Harvey, I said, I'm not gonna complain 653 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 1: about the weather ever again, just not gonna not gonna 654 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 1: do it. I like, but I'll tell you what. I 655 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: was just sweating standing there today, really all right, just 656 00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: standing there? Okay, Well I went, John Harris today, I 657 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 1: went today. I'm wearing the long sleeves. It's a sunscreen 658 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 1: thing for me, white long sleeves. Well, there is a 659 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 1: reason why they do it, and a lot of guys 660 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 1: say it keeps the sun off your skin. I'm buying 661 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: into that. Ye makes a tremendous difference. When I coached 662 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: in that flag football thing a week and a half ago, 663 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 1: I was out there for seven hours and ninety five 664 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 1: degree heat and big d and wore this long sleep 665 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 1: white thing. And let me tell you something, it makes 666 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: a huge difference. I'd rather just stand there sweating and 667 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 1: keep the skin safe from the sun. You know. So 668 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: there's that. This is your health tip for the day 669 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 1: on Texans Radio. Let's get to this now. Kendall Lamb. Look, 670 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: last year at camp kind of penciled in to be 671 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 1: your left tackle if Dwayne Brown couldn't go. Didn't work 672 00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 1: out for Kendall eventually found his way back on the 673 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 1: squad and he's trying to make the most of an 674 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 1: opportunity here this spring to hang around and get some 675 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 1: significant snaps. John Harris and I with Kendall Lamb. So, Kendall, 676 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: what has this offseason been like for you? I know 677 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 1: last year didn't go the way you wanted it too, 678 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 1: but here you are fresh starts that life. Of course, refocused, 679 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: went home with the family, enjoyed that time. But for me, 680 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 1: got right back to work, really focused in on a 681 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 1: lot of flexibility stuff, a lot of really small minor details, 682 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 1: got really intrigued and detailed, like because I mean, when 683 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 1: I go back and watch the film, it's just little things. 684 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: And of course the opportunity can come and go so fast, 685 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: so I mean, you process it. You appreciate the opportunity, 686 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 1: but you realize that there's more work to be done. 687 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 1: And each day, you know, I remember that it's always 688 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 1: in the back of my mind, and you keep moving forward. Kenna. 689 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 1: When you think about learning the game of football and 690 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: now you're thinking about the minute things that you have 691 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 1: to change, did you ever think that, oh man, my 692 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 1: foot placement needs to be two inches here, I need 693 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 1: to turn my hips maybe like a quarter inch this way. 694 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 1: Did you ever think about it being so almost scientific, 695 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 1: down to the minute details that you have to change 696 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 1: to be great at this game. Yeah, especially at this 697 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 1: level when you get here, things happen so fast. You know, 698 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 1: guys take advantage of your what you lack, which, of 699 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 1: course me, I don't have the longest arms, So from 700 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 1: my standpoint, my feet have to be perfect. My feet 701 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: have to be fast, they have to be quick because 702 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 1: my feet make up for some of the things that 703 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: I lack, so um learning that learning of course, to 704 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 1: see defenses very very close, even more than I have 705 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 1: in the pass, I've been major things because like I said, 706 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 1: at this level, you snap it, it's over. So yeah, 707 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 1: the time between the ending of the season and strength 708 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 1: and conditioning, how do you spend that to get better? 709 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 1: Because it's not like you can officially be coached or anything. 710 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 1: So you work on certain things, but you have to 711 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 1: do them by yourself. Basics, right. So I go home 712 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 1: to Charlotte and I work out with four or five 713 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:45,320 Speaker 1: officsive linemen from the Ravens, one from the Lions. We 714 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 1: go back home in Charlotte, of course, and we work 715 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 1: with a guy coach Oh he played four or five 716 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:52,960 Speaker 1: years in the league, played a few in the CFL 717 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 1: with offensive line stuff. So it's nice to be around 718 00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 1: those guys and to hear the different techniques they use 719 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 1: on their teams, because sometimes you can fine tune and 720 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 1: use things from other places. So it's nice. And I 721 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 1: mean we go over film with him and everything and 722 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:08,840 Speaker 1: see it from his standpoint. I get to hear it 723 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 1: from other guys standpoints, So I mean it's all for me. 724 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,400 Speaker 1: It's year around, like it doesn't stop. It's nice to 725 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:16,920 Speaker 1: see the family spend time, but I devote a lot 726 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 1: of my day to that. So Kenna, when you have 727 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 1: you know, everybody has their own experience. I played for 728 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 1: the Texans. Ever since you've been in the NFL, some 729 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 1: guys have played for other teams, so they get that 730 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 1: opportunity when they go to a different team to see 731 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 1: how a different team does it. Right, You've only been 732 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 1: here with the Texans and see the Texans do it. 733 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 1: When you get a chance to talk to other team, 734 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 1: other players from other teams, how important is that to 735 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:39,440 Speaker 1: you to listen to what they have to say about, Well, hey, 736 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,400 Speaker 1: this is how we do this technique, or this is 737 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:43,279 Speaker 1: how we do this technique, or this is what we 738 00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,800 Speaker 1: have on our team plane when we go. How important 739 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 1: is that for you? And how how interesting is that 740 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,359 Speaker 1: for you to hear from other team other players from 741 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 1: other teams. I mean, it's very intriguing because there's not 742 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: a right way to do things. You know, if you 743 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 1: can put little things into your game, if you can 744 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: learn from somebody else and you could find tune some things, 745 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:04,879 Speaker 1: then it's a major it's a major thing. And of course, 746 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 1: as you said, I've been here since day one, so 747 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 1: I haven't got to see the other side of the 748 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 1: as you would say. So I mean it's nice, it's 749 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:18,680 Speaker 1: it's invaluable because I've taken some things that one of 750 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:20,839 Speaker 1: my friends who plays guard at the ravens how they 751 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,760 Speaker 1: do it, and it really helped me out, in my opinion, 752 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 1: a lot, and I'm very excited, you know, for us 753 00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:29,360 Speaker 1: to come so well, you've also seen the evolution of 754 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 1: the offense because Watson's here and things have changed since 755 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 1: he's been around. So how helpful is that to you? 756 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 1: I mean, to have a quarterback who's a threat with 757 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 1: his legs changes everything. And of course you know when 758 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 1: he throws the balls on the money, So in my opinion, 759 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 1: having him, you know, you get cleaner looks in the box. 760 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 1: You put linebackers in conflict because you have to worry 761 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:49,400 Speaker 1: about the read option, and then when you have to 762 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 1: worry about the readoption, it gives us more time to 763 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 1: do other things. You know, when you've got somebody who 764 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 1: or a quarterback like him who can step back and 765 00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 1: if the pocket breaks down, he can move. Everybody has 766 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:01,880 Speaker 1: to remember that in the back of their heads. So 767 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,320 Speaker 1: it changes the way they do games. It changes the 768 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:06,279 Speaker 1: way they rush. And you know, as soon as we 769 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: get into twelve thirteen, play drives the defenses. You know, 770 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:10,719 Speaker 1: they could they could get tired and then he could 771 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:12,719 Speaker 1: scoot out to the right as you can, as you 772 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,719 Speaker 1: saw in the Cincinnati game and run forever. So yeah, 773 00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 1: Kina hust similar to what the offense will be is 774 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,359 Speaker 1: what you were doing Applatz and State. In other words, 775 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,840 Speaker 1: when you came from Appletza State and came here, that 776 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,360 Speaker 1: was a transition, I would imagine, and thinking back to 777 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 1: what you guys ran in Appolis State, I would think 778 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:31,160 Speaker 1: you guys would doing a little bit more now, sort 779 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:32,759 Speaker 1: of like what you were doing in college. So does 780 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 1: that helped you in the transition going forward that yeah, 781 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 1: you learned how to do it, but now maybe you're 782 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 1: going back to some of the things that you did 783 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 1: back when you're in college. Ye, yes, sir. It was big. 784 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 1: I mean we were always out of the shotgun at 785 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 1: We ran a lot of readoption and read zone. We 786 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 1: lived in the outside zone. World, so we can get 787 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,200 Speaker 1: people running like how my coach described in My Office 788 00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 1: of line coach coach led in college. I mean, if 789 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:55,240 Speaker 1: you get really good at the outside zone, it's almost 790 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 1: impossible to fit correctly every time, right, So I mean 791 00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 1: you put the defense in conflict in one you guys, 792 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:02,360 Speaker 1: you know, get on the same accord, you take the 793 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 1: right steps and everything. I mean, you can gash teams. 794 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,000 Speaker 1: I mean in college we ran that NonStop, and I 795 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:08,959 Speaker 1: mean we put two fifty almost three on the ground 796 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 1: every time. So it's it's I like the direction it's 797 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 1: going in. Not only Tomato, Kendall, good luck to you, 798 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: Thanks a lot for joining you guys. There. He is 799 00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:22,040 Speaker 1: Kendall Lamb and he's trying to get some tasty snaps, 800 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:26,320 Speaker 1: tasty significant guts of the game snaps for your Houston 801 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 1: Texans in the preseason. And then take it from there. 802 00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 1: All right, A couple of things on the way out here. 803 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 1: Dwight Clark. First of all, we didn't mention this yesterday. Obviously, 804 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 1: everybody's sad about the passing of Dwight Clark. Als and 805 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:40,879 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff about his life in the last 806 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 1: twenty four hours plus. Johnny, I'll say this to me, 807 00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 1: that is the most famous highlight in the history of 808 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 1: the game. I might be wrong about this, but when 809 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:51,279 Speaker 1: I think about a highlight I've seen more than any 810 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 1: other in the history of professional football, it's either the 811 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:58,760 Speaker 1: Immaculate Reception or that, and I'm kind of swaying toward 812 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,640 Speaker 1: that the cat. I'll say this about both before you comment. 813 00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:06,719 Speaker 1: Neither one happened at a Super Bowl, correct, but what 814 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 1: they but both of them signaled the start of dynasties. 815 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,759 Speaker 1: Not entirely for Pittsburgh because it still took him a 816 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 1: couple of years to get to the super Bowl and 817 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 1: won a Super Bowl against the Vikings in seventy four, 818 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 1: so I think me a couple of years, but that 819 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 1: was that was signaling their arrival with that game and 820 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,239 Speaker 1: Frank o'harris, all the young players and Steelers had at 821 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 1: that time, and then of course when they had at 822 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:31,920 Speaker 1: great seventy four draft and that got them to a 823 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: super Bowl and then four of them the seventies. This 824 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 1: kicked off the dynasty in the eighties. It knocked off 825 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: America's team. Dare I say right? That was the other 826 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 1: aspect of and it was the true Cinderella, the forty 827 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 1: nine ers were complete and total garbage for the years 828 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 1: prior to Walsh took over in seventy nine. Let think 829 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 1: it won two games in nineteen eighty, I think you 830 00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 1: were a little bit better. But in nineteen eighty one 831 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,520 Speaker 1: they when they added guys like Ronnie lat and they 832 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 1: added an entire brand new secondary Carlton Williams and a 833 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 1: bunch of young guys in the back. And then this 834 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 1: Montana characters in his third year, Boy what's he got? 835 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 1: And then the whole West Coast offense thing taken off. 836 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 1: To me, those two highlights sort of signify the start 837 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: of Dynasties and seeing Dwight Clark go up knocking off 838 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:21,400 Speaker 1: the Cowboys and football on TV was starting to be 839 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:23,719 Speaker 1: a bigger deal with that was a huge season for 840 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 1: the league. Who called that game? Who called that game 841 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 1: on CBS very good? Very I knew you would know 842 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 1: that that's a good one. Yeah, he called the game, 843 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 1: and I thought he did a pretty fabulous job to 844 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 1: calling it. I could listen to Vincecully do anything anything, 845 00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: but the Sports Illustrated did the story. Eddie de Barlow 846 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:49,279 Speaker 1: contacted as many of Dwight Clark's former teammates and had 847 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 1: them come to his I think it's not Idaho or Montana. 848 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,799 Speaker 1: I'm not sure which one, but he had them all 849 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 1: come to Idaho, Montana, about two dozen of them a 850 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 1: former forty nine, to come together and celebrate with Dwight. 851 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:06,439 Speaker 1: This was I think back in the spring, and Huey 852 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:08,600 Speaker 1: Lewis showed up. I guess Huey Lewis and Dwight Clark 853 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 1: were pretty close. And obviously Huey from the Barry was 854 00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 1: a big Niners fan, and they had him all there 855 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 1: and they just had this this reunion of sorts. And 856 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 1: I can't remember who wrote the article. I haven't read 857 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 1: the full thing, but you got the gist that there 858 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:26,439 Speaker 1: were a lot of players saying, you know, this could 859 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,960 Speaker 1: be the last time we see Dwight. That they had 860 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 1: that that thought, they had the idea that this could 861 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 1: be the last time they saw him, like are we 862 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 1: gonna see him again? And so a lot of guys 863 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:39,279 Speaker 1: when they when they left, they made sure to give 864 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:41,799 Speaker 1: him a big hug, and you know, they were very, 865 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,360 Speaker 1: very emotional. It's a very emotional read. And I couldn't 866 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:47,600 Speaker 1: help but think about that Eddie de Barlow reach into 867 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:52,080 Speaker 1: his pocket paying for everybody to go out there to celebrate, 868 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:54,800 Speaker 1: because if he waits six more months, they don't do it. 869 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 1: And I just I thought about that, and I was like, man, 870 00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:00,880 Speaker 1: that was just such a great thing for him to do. 871 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:02,480 Speaker 1: And that was something that Eddie d was known for 872 00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 1: when he was the owner of the forty nine ers. 873 00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:06,520 Speaker 1: But think of that story. If you get a chance 874 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,440 Speaker 1: to to read on SI dot com, I would suggest 875 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 1: everybody go read it. It's but if you had, if 876 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 1: you're our demographic where growing up in the eighties, you 877 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:16,719 Speaker 1: watched and you saw that play, and you saw the 878 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:18,480 Speaker 1: forty nine ers and how great the forty nineers were, 879 00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 1: you really appreciate it. Guys Ronnie Lott, Keena Turner, Joe Montana, 880 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 1: Jerry Rice. I mean, as many of the greats that 881 00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:28,720 Speaker 1: you can think of from the forty nine ers. Teams 882 00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:31,279 Speaker 1: were all out there to celebrate and they just had 883 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 1: an incredible weekend. But it was that last part when 884 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 1: they're all saying goodbye, and I just remember thinking about that. 885 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 1: One of the things that always I think about with 886 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:43,600 Speaker 1: each team or the Texans, you know, you get a 887 00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:45,759 Speaker 1: chance to know these guys a little bit more than 888 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,080 Speaker 1: just you know media with players, we get a chance 889 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:49,400 Speaker 1: to see them in the building, so we get to 890 00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:51,399 Speaker 1: know them a little bit more, asking him about kids 891 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:54,080 Speaker 1: and when they changed teams. Sometimes you don't get a 892 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,359 Speaker 1: chance to see these guys again, right, you know when 893 00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:58,320 Speaker 1: you retire and you go off and they move to 894 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:00,359 Speaker 1: different parts of the country. Are you gonna see your 895 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 1: former teammates again? Eddie d brought these guys all back 896 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:05,800 Speaker 1: together with Todd thought was just really, really cool and 897 00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 1: it's a great story. One of the great owners when 898 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:10,400 Speaker 1: he was around owning, and he provided a lot of 899 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:14,440 Speaker 1: benefits that today would not pass muster because they're not 900 00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:17,799 Speaker 1: illegal benefits, but they're benefits that would not fit under 901 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:21,000 Speaker 1: the cap. Okay, they're they would be considered to have 902 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:24,279 Speaker 1: too much value to be given to players. Yeah, but 903 00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:28,440 Speaker 1: the all expenses paid crews after winning the winning the 904 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Can't do that because it's a benny. That's 905 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:33,879 Speaker 1: a benefit. All right, Johnny, thank you very much. That's 906 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,239 Speaker 1: gonna do it for the show tonight. You can listen 907 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: to this show on iTunes, tune in, or wherever fine 908 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:43,520 Speaker 1: podcasts are available.
