1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,360 Speaker 1: What's going on? Everybody? Welcome into a Monday edition of 2 00:00:02,440 --> 00:00:06,000 Speaker 1: Texans All Access. A little over twenty four hours since 3 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:11,479 Speaker 1: the Texans unfortunately took a loss out in Las Vegas 4 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 1: against the Las Vegas Raiders thirty eight twenty. Again, there 5 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,239 Speaker 1: was twenty to seventeen Texans heading into the fourth quarter, 6 00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:22,320 Speaker 1: but three Raiders touchdowns and the Texans unable to answer 7 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 1: in what for three quarters in some change was a 8 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:32,600 Speaker 1: wonderful heavyweight fight, just knockout blows left and right, and 9 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:38,199 Speaker 1: unfortunately it pretty much took the left turn when the 10 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,400 Speaker 1: fourth and one left side of the offensive line fall started. 11 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 1: Had to punt for the first time all game right 12 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: there with eleven minutes left than the fourth quarter could 13 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: stop Josh Jacobs, And there were other aspects of that 14 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 1: game that were kind of hard to digest. We talked 15 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 1: about it with love you Smith. You heard that show 16 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 1: just prior to this one. So hopefully the Texans will 17 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 1: bounce back and get it going in the right direction 18 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: against the Tennessee Titans at home. Last few games against 19 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 1: the Titans at home have been incredible football games. Just 20 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: Texans on the wrong side of three point losses. Both 21 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,320 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty twenty twenty one, so hopefully this will 22 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 1: be a three point win or more against the Titans 23 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: in Houston on Sunday, Halloween Eve, if you obviously celebrate, 24 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,120 Speaker 1: so we can look forward to that. All right, We're 25 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: gonna have John McClain a little later the show, and 26 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: we'll look at what happened in the NFL in Week 27 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: eight around the league. But right now we kick it 28 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 1: off with our good friend Andre where we had a 29 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 1: lot to talk about from this one on Sunday, so 30 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,559 Speaker 1: that the Astros are going to the World Series again. 31 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: So wait, let's start there for a moment here, because 32 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: I know you were once a drafted to play baseball, 33 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: but you chose football. Why, by the way, well, football 34 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: seemed to be the challenge. You have everybody telling you 35 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 1: that you can't. You're not gonna play quarterback in college, 36 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 1: You're not gonna do this, that and the other, and 37 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: it just became more of a challenge for baseball always 38 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 1: the first love. All right, so baseball, and I know 39 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 1: your kid plays baseball. It's awesome, and congrats to the Asteroids. 40 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: All right, let's start with Mills. We just heard that highlight. 41 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 1: Assess his performance. I know we had to pick at 42 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 1: the end. He threw for three h two that throw 43 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 1: a more the throat of door set and those shot 44 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 1: put kind of push pass throws that he made on 45 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 1: the fly. That was something we really hadn't seen much 46 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: of him improvising in that way. Your thoughts on Davis yesterday, Yeah, 47 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: I thought he showed tremendous maturity yesterday in terms of 48 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: having full grasp of what was going on, knowing exactly 49 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: where guys are on the field to get the ball 50 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: out quickly and under duress. And there were a couple 51 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: of blitzes where the back was leaking out and that 52 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,839 Speaker 1: was the safety value you got hot routes pretty much 53 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: built into just about everything, and if you get in trouble, 54 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: you gotta be able to get to him. Well. If 55 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: you pick the blitz up late, and that's every it 56 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: happens to every quarterback where you sense it late, you 57 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: just gotta know to go with it. And thought he 58 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: handled those situations very well, went down right down the field. 59 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: They had some flexibility yesterday where where they were going 60 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: to throw the football against the Raiders second secondary, and 61 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: the offensive line held up and he certainly did his 62 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 1: part yesterday dre the offense bestis looked on other side 63 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: of the ball. Yeah, not so much. So I'll ask 64 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: you this more about what the Raiders had and Josh Jacobs, 65 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: Davante Adams, Derek Carr, or the Texans defensively just not 66 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: being there. Your thoughts about just what they were facing 67 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: and how they responded. Yeah, we know Josh Jacobs as 68 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: a heck of a back, and I think through the 69 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: whole game, Mark and I painted the theme that he 70 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: resembles or Damian Peers resembled him. And I asked Mark 71 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: during it, if you knew you were getting Josh Jacobs 72 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: in the fourth round, would you do it? I mean, 73 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: it's just a no brainer to do that, And I 74 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: think that's the quality of back that the Texans haven't pierced. 75 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 1: But I don't know. It seems like it was a 76 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: point where between the twenties they would give up some 77 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: yardage and then they get stingy down inside the red zone. 78 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,799 Speaker 1: That wasn't the case yesterday, especially late in the game. 79 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if it was more of the Raiders. 80 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 1: I don't know, if it was the lack of certain 81 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: things on the defensive side, maybe a combination of both 82 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: because they still aren't armed without Waller. They're a totally 83 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: different team when he's in the lineup with Foster Moroa 84 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: tight end because they do so many things, they blocked differently. 85 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: They didn't have to block a whole lot. Yesterday, Josh 86 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: Jacobs just had his way the tune of one hundred 87 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 1: and forty three yards. Now, he's done that the last 88 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: two weeks on opponents, averaging one forty four. So he 89 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 1: was just about there again yesterday in the last two 90 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: weeks leading into the game against the Texans yesterday, So 91 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: they've got weapons. DeVante Adams. They went to him early, 92 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 1: forgot about him for a while, and then certainly late 93 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: when they had to have it, they went back in 94 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: his direction. So you know, it was it was a 95 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: bevy of a bunch of stuff that kind of culmpulated 96 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: in a thirty eight twenty loss for the Texans yesterday. Yeah, 97 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 1: and that was that was really tough because they pulled 98 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: away late and it was a close game for a 99 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 1: long time. And we'll see how it goes. You got 100 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 1: Tennessee coming up this Sunday. Three oh five. Kicked Ray 101 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: and it's not like the Titans. They don't seem to 102 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 1: be as good as they were last year when Henry 103 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: was healthy last year. But they did plenty to win 104 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 1: yesterday in a nineteen ten victory over the Colts. And 105 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: your thoughts on how you try to slow him down, 106 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: I mean they it's no secret what they want to 107 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 1: do to the Houston Texans on Sunday. Yeah. I mean, 108 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: they're gonna run the football. And they got the blueprint 109 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: that a lot of other teams have had all season long, 110 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 1: and that's can't seem to stop the run or slow 111 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: guys down. And you get the quality of backs like 112 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 1: Jacobs and Henry, and then all of a sudden, Sanders 113 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,359 Speaker 1: is coming on a short week, Miles Sanders from the 114 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 1: from the Eagles. That's the recipe is run the football 115 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 1: against the Texans. We know what he's capable of, We've 116 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: seen it firsthand, and they don't go away from him. 117 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: I mean they just keep beating you up with said whatever. 118 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: Whatever the size is very Henry all throughout the game 119 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 1: and sooner or lady, you know he's gonna break one 120 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: because he breaks tackles. Uh, He's got He's shiftier than 121 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: you think. And once he gets a full head of steam, 122 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: forget about it. Now. The way to stop him is penetration. 123 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 1: You're gonna have to sell out to beat you know, 124 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:47,559 Speaker 1: to stop the run and get him before he gets 125 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 1: the full head of steam. Because if he gets it, 126 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: forget about it, they're in the player on defense that 127 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: is gonna bring him down, and he'll figure out a 128 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: way to either run over you, stiff arm you, or 129 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: make you miss, which is a rare combination for a 130 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: back his size. Man, we have some Derrick Henry Ptsteve Boys. 131 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think the same question. I mean 132 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: the last the last four times we faced him. I 133 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: mean we didn't face him last year, thankfully, didn't face 134 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: him in twenty twenty one, but we faced him in 135 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty and twenty nineteen, so um the other and 136 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: those times he was rushing for two hundred. Speaking of 137 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: I don't want to say Derrick Henry's aging, but he's 138 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: not getting younger, aging superstar Tom Brady dre This thing 139 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: has gone completely sideways. They scored three points against the Panthers. 140 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: I know none of us watched every single play of 141 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: that game, but just knowing, the Bucks scored twelve against 142 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: the Packers. They were outscoring to shootout against the Chiefs. 143 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: They then turned around and lost at Pittsburgh, scoring only eighteen, 144 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: and they scored three against the vaunted nineteen eighty five. 145 00:07:53,360 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: I mean, Carolina Panthers. Is Brady done? Very sip? Is 146 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: he done? Is it over? Finally? No? No, because it's 147 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: been asked before. And he comes back with a four 148 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: hundred yard game and four touchdowns, and all of a sudden, 149 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 1: they start ripping off wins, and so you know, it's 150 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: just they have they don't have a running game right now. 151 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: And I don't know what the deal is with four 152 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: Nette and whoever else they have there, but when you 153 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: can't run the football in your one dimensional he didn't 154 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: throw a touchdown pass yesterday because he had so much 155 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: pressure on him from Carolina, who a lot of people 156 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 1: thought were going to tank and to finish the year 157 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 1: when they traded Christian McCaffrey. And there's another receiver a 158 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: week ago or I guess about a week or so 159 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: ago that they took Robbie Anderson that they traded to 160 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: Phoenix to Arizona. So a lot of people thought that 161 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: was it. They were mailing it in, but they showed 162 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: a pulse certainly yesterday against against Tampa Bay. I don't 163 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 1: think he's done. I think he's still got some good 164 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 1: football in him. It's just that when I told me 165 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: this to Mark yesterday, when you ella yourself as a 166 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: leader above the team, guys will stop playing for you. 167 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: And I thought he did that. It was a bad 168 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: decision going to that wedding during a work week preparing 169 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: for a game. He played bad. Then he got on 170 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 1: guys on the sideline and he wasn't there. So as 171 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: long as you're on their level as a leader of 172 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 1: a football team and they don't feel like you're elevating yourself, 173 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: they will play their hearts out for you. But the 174 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: minute you you distract and all of a sudden, it's 175 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,839 Speaker 1: it's viewed by the locker room, is elevated, and then 176 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 1: they're having to answer questions about your presence or their 177 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 1: lack of the lack thereof. Then guys get a little 178 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: bit better and sour about that kind of stuff. It's 179 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,959 Speaker 1: it's a it's a very gray area in which you 180 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 1: try to avoid as as a quarterback, as a leader 181 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: of a team. Let's go to the other old guy, 182 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,679 Speaker 1: and not nearly as old. Aaron Rodgers, who throws for 183 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: one hundred and ninety four yards yesterday. As the Packers, 184 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: speaking of not being able to run the football, can't 185 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 1: do it either, or at least they couldn't against the 186 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: Washington Commanders, as they only muster thirty eight rushing yards 187 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,080 Speaker 1: in the game. And you know, Matt Lafleur wants to 188 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: run that rock even though he has Aaron Rodgers. That's 189 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 1: a big part of their success the last few years 190 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: in the regular season. And what about Taylor Heineke former 191 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: Houston Texans Taylor Heineke throwing for two o one, two 192 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: tds and a pick in Washington's win. All he does 193 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,559 Speaker 1: is win. You know, he put him on the field. 194 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: It's hard, hard to get the kid off the field. 195 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 1: But he's buttoned up, he knows the offense. He gives 196 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: himself a chance when he gets his opportunities, and when 197 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: he gets him makes the most out of him. And 198 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 1: I'm scratching my head at Green Bay's running game because 199 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: a lot of teams in the league would take Jones 200 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: and Dillon as their primary guys and their shared time. 201 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: But they would be starters on a lot of teams 202 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: across the NFL, and not to be able to get 203 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: that generated. It tells me the offensive line is not 204 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: to say Aaron Rodgers throws for one hundred ninety four 205 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 1: yards or two touchdown. That's low by his standards. So 206 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: you just wonder what's going on up front. Forget about 207 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:13,359 Speaker 1: the rookies on the outside, because they're gonna get production 208 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: and Rogers is gonna get that thing. The passing game 209 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 1: worked out, but it's the offensive line went to me 210 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 1: when when you can't run it the way Green Bays 211 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: used to running it. This question for both of you, 212 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 1: Ben want to get good. I think Mark and I 213 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: talked about this on Radio Trey. I did this with 214 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 1: Mark sometimes and just just give me your gut reaction 215 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: when you saw the news, give me your gut reaction. 216 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey traded to the forty nine ers, What was 217 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 1: your gut reaction with that move? Good reaction that the 218 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: forty nine ers are trying to win it. You know, 219 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: they got close last year and they're trying to get 220 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: back in a position to win it, and they're willing 221 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 1: to to to sacrifice some some future pieces to do 222 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: it right now. And it didn't work out yesterday at 223 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 1: home against Kansas City. But that doesn't mean as that 224 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 1: trade's not going to pay dividends. I think he hits 225 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: that system perfectly. I think he showed some some bright 226 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: spots yesterday and I think he may have been there 227 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,959 Speaker 1: like a day or so one practice, learned a couple 228 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: of plays, and they put him in the game and 229 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: he's successful, So then they know exactly what they're getting. 230 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: He is a weapon both in the past and game 231 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: and certainly run into football. You get him on the edges, 232 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 1: you run screens with him, you run draw plays. He's electric, 233 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:33,199 Speaker 1: and you try to build matchups that certainly favored him. 234 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 1: He is a matchup nightmare though, because you can't cover 235 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 1: him with a linebacker defensive back. He's powerful enough to 236 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 1: break away from that type of that type of player. 237 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 1: So they've gotten themselves a good one. It's the only 238 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 1: question is can he stay healthy. It's a big question 239 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: because the guy that they drafted at quarterback last year, 240 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 1: and they invested a lot to do that, he's not playing. 241 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: If McCaffrey's not playing as well, eventually you have a 242 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: lot of draft capital wrapped up in two guys who 243 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 1: aren't playing. But I find it interesting that they're going 244 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 1: not exactly all in, but they're going in. They're pushing 245 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: some chips to the center of the table. Here with 246 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: McCaffrey with a quarterback that they didn't even want but 247 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: now they know they need. It's really interesting stuff. There's 248 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,959 Speaker 1: so much drama, bar it's fun to talk about. Yeah, 249 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 1: I just think that. I think the other side of 250 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,079 Speaker 1: the I think the other side of it, Drea, is 251 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: the Panthers coming out of there because all the trades 252 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 1: they made for Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield, they gave 253 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 1: away all their their early round, second, third, fourth round picks. Well, 254 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: they got him back and then they had to give 255 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: him chrishing McCaffrey to do it, but they got him 256 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: back and then they went and beat the Buccaneers. Yeah, 257 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 1: that's awesome for that, that's incredible that with Deante Foreman 258 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 1: going for over one hundred yards I think one eighteen 259 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 1: I was back, and then d J. Walker throwing for 260 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 1: two touchdowns and you know the guys that, yeah, you 261 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 1: wouldn't think that are winning games. To be Hubbard, who 262 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,599 Speaker 1: they like a lot there as their speed back and 263 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: kind of a McCaffrey type. He had a decent game yesterday, 264 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: So you know they've got pieces and they obviously uh 265 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 1: showed that their their professionals came to work yesterday and 266 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: found a way to win. Yeah. I just think it's 267 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 1: fascinating stuff and good for them being able to pull 268 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 1: that off. That division. For Carolina, I don't know. Look, 269 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 1: they're way behind, but maybe not that far behind. Who 270 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: knows what happens at the end. There's soul. I hate 271 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: to be there's a lot of football left, guy, but 272 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 1: there's a lot of football left. Yeah, who's leading that division? 273 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: I mean, Tampa's with three and three, Tampas three and four, 274 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: three and four, nobody's gonna better wreck Carolina's, Carolina's two 275 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 1: and five. I'm not sure what the Saints are try there? 276 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: Two and five. I try to avoid and the Atlanta Falcon, 277 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: the Buccaneers and Falcons three and four, then the Panthers 278 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: two and five, Saints two and five. It's it's up 279 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 1: for grabs. It's anybody's division. Beat the Falcons. That was 280 00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: the whole roughing the passer uh sich which gave the 281 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 1: Buccaneers and winning that one. I don't think you're gonna 282 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: be surprised about anybody other than maybe the Panthers winning 283 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 1: the division. I think everybody else has a shot. The 284 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 1: Panthers win at the Vision, that'd be awesome. I mean 285 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 1: if Atlanta won it over the long haul, you know, Dave, Yeah, 286 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: I know. They've shown some signs though, which is interesting 287 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 1: with Marcus Mariota. They're just way up and down. They 288 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 1: It's interesting how teams take on the mold of their 289 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: head coach and of their quarterback. And that's what the 290 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: Falcons do against the forty nine ers. Marcus Mariota is 291 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 1: thirteen and fourteen for two hundred yards or something like that. 292 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: He was incredible, and then yesterday against the Bengals he 293 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: was seven of nineteen. Dre. I want to ask you 294 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: about college coaching because I just find it so interesting 295 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: and I don't know all the ins and outs, but 296 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: I look at a guy like Mike Gundey at Oklahoma 297 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: State and they just beat the Longhorns this weekend, and 298 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: you know, he stays put there and I know the 299 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: expectations there aren't national championship. I don't know. I feel 300 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 1: like if I was a college head coach, I wouldn't 301 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: mind coaching for a school like that where I can 302 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: recruit I can make some hay, I can make some money, 303 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: I guess, and I can possibly compete for a title 304 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: if everything goes right, because even with the big schools, 305 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 1: you still need everything to go right. When you're looking 306 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 1: at things that way, you know, one or two losses 307 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 1: and you're done for I just find it interesting, you know, 308 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: the old Richard Justice line, and he might have stole 309 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 1: it from somewhere. Coaches run from happiness. They try to 310 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: get bigger jobs, and often they slide back because it's 311 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: so difficult. I'm looking at Jimbo at texas A and 312 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: m obviously that's not going well. I think with Sarkasan 313 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: it could work out at the forty Acres, but you 314 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: know it's not exactly off to a great start right here. 315 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: Your thoughts, Yeah, it doesn't hurt that Mike is at home. 316 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: I mean, he did go to school there and played there. 317 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 1: You know, that's that's home cooking for him, so he 318 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 1: gets kind of the benefit of the doubt if there 319 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: is a down year. But i mean, think back, have 320 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: they really had a down year. He's always in the 321 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: thick of it in the Big Twelve, it seems that way, 322 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 1: and his team slay hard and now it's a trend 323 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 1: where the schools like Ohio State or coaching coaches from 324 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 1: him each and every year. It seemed like at one 325 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 1: point it was offensive the offensive coordinators were getting, you know, 326 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 1: either head coaching jobs or opportunities that supposed bigger schools 327 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,639 Speaker 1: than Oklahoma State. And now he's having the same problem 328 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 1: on the defensive side. What it tells me is that 329 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 1: there is a system in place for success and he's 330 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: got the thing running the way he wants now. They 331 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: were a yard away from being in the playoff last year, 332 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 1: and who knows what happens if they get in. But 333 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 1: Baylor spoiled at last year for him. Uh, you know 334 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 1: it's they spoiled Texas' trip to Stillwater this weekend. He's 335 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,199 Speaker 1: got a heck of a program like him or not, 336 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,440 Speaker 1: you know, kind of a quirky or not. He is 337 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: a damn good football coach that that wins a lot 338 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: of games. So when you have that, the lifestyle certainly 339 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 1: fits him. And still Water he's got a rands, He's 340 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: got all these animals and you know things that that 341 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: he that takes him away from football when he needs 342 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: a break. And uh, and he just loves the fight. 343 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,439 Speaker 1: So if you if the lifestyle fits you and you 344 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 1: love it and it feels like home, why would you 345 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:20,120 Speaker 1: ever leave? And I just know some coaches abide by 346 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 1: the theory of seven years and then they've got to 347 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,399 Speaker 1: move on. No matter what's going on, they're gonna be 348 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,159 Speaker 1: at a place for seven years and then it's on 349 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,640 Speaker 1: to the next next job. Some of that is let 350 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: me get them before they get me, or you know, 351 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 1: I just I think it's time to move on. I've 352 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,679 Speaker 1: done all I needed to do with this program, and 353 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: let's let's go take on the next challenge. That's not 354 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,199 Speaker 1: Mike though, the seven year inch, he doesn't have it. 355 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: That's an old movie. By the way, that's a dated 356 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 1: I made a Mike Jones reference in relation to the 357 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 1: Jacks getting stab stopped at the goal line. Yeah, and 358 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: I'm wondering if that's two dated a football reference for 359 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,479 Speaker 1: some people getting there Mike Jones and Dice in at 360 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 1: the I mean, come on, what's this? What's this? Hey? 361 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: Dre Friday Night? How did you like watching E. J. Warner, 362 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: Kurt Warner's son. How did that make you feel? Oh? Boy? 363 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: He had some moments in that game, and he had 364 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: some struggles just like you know, that that of what 365 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: you would expect from a true freshman, but just calling 366 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 1: a game that you know, he got Kurt Warner's son 367 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,640 Speaker 1: in it. Hall of Famer and that that was that 368 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,359 Speaker 1: was actually pretty cool. So you get to do in 369 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 1: our seats. We get to do some some pretty cool things, 370 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,640 Speaker 1: and that was that was certainly one of them. He's 371 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:35,360 Speaker 1: a little bit thicker than I thought, and he anticipates well. 372 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,359 Speaker 1: He and his receivers got to work out some chemistry 373 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 1: issues before they are I'm in a backing game that 374 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 1: you can see, there's some stuff there. Does Warner go 375 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: like old school dad and say, listen, I had to 376 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 1: go to play Arina ball in Iowa and go to 377 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: Europe to play ball in order to make it to 378 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: the league. And then I'm not sure where're you going? 379 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 1: Where'd you go to college Iowa? Something Northern Iowa, Northern 380 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,119 Speaker 1: i in northern Ioway. Here's the thing. I was on 381 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 1: Saturday before I took off for Vegas. I was watching 382 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: some college football, which, by the way, college football starting 383 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 1: at nine o'clock on the West Coast is kind of cool. 384 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: Oh that is good. I mean, get out of bed, 385 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 1: they're kicking the ball. It was amazing. I was watching 386 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 1: Syracuse and Clemson and Clemson's defense had Jeremiah Trotter junior. 387 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Yeah, Syracuse's best player, arguably wide receiver's 388 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 1: sophomore is not draft eligible yet. His name is a. 389 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: Ronde Gadsden the second Yes, and they were playing at 390 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:36,639 Speaker 1: the same time Ohio State was playing. Who has a 391 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,439 Speaker 1: receiver by the name of Marvin Harrison junior. You know, 392 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: I'm glad all these dads are naming their kids their name, 393 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: you know, so it makes it easy, like Samuel and 394 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 1: all these guys. Yeah, so I don't have to think 395 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 1: about it too much. Although in the NBA wouldn't work 396 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: with Isaiah Thomas. That didn't work that one because it 397 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: wasn't Isaiah Thomas junior at that situation. Drey, what do 398 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: you have this weekend going up to BYU BYUS host 399 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:06,440 Speaker 1: in East Carolina who took down UCF yesterday or Saturday 400 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 1: in a major way. So they're coming in on a 401 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,680 Speaker 1: ride in the high and BYUS has lost a few 402 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,679 Speaker 1: in a row now and the win is out of 403 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 1: out of their sales a little bit, because you know, 404 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 1: they wouldn't beat Baylor. I think Baylor was bringing uber 405 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 1: that the country and then since then both teams have 406 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,360 Speaker 1: kind of gone the other way. So hopefully we'll get 407 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 1: a good game. Friday nights are always exciting. It just 408 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: seems to be that way where you have that one 409 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 1: magical year where just about every game has some some 410 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 1: sizzle to it, and we've we've been able to kind 411 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: of capture that on Friday nights. Okay, looking forward to it, 412 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: Looking forward to Sunday as well against the Tennessee Titans. 413 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,439 Speaker 1: Three oh five. Kick Drey, thanks a lot for joining us. 414 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: All Right, guys, have a good one. Yeah. Definitely getting 415 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 1: to that age where you're seeing juniors and thirds of 416 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 1: players that you watched when either you were a young 417 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 1: person or you were a young adult, or in some 418 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 1: case is like Marvin Harrison junior. You actually covered his 419 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: dad as we all did, so that's always kind of strange. 420 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 1: But yeah, I watched that Circus clumpsing game. Like Ronda Gadsden, 421 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 1: there's Jeremiah Trotter junior and those two guys can ball. 422 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 1: Gadsden is gonna be definitely somebody to watch it. If 423 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,639 Speaker 1: I remember correctly. Jeremiah Trotter junior and Marvin Harrison Junior 424 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 1: went to the same high school if I remember correctly 425 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 1: in Philadelphia, think I think it was Saint Joe's Prep, 426 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 1: but don't quote me on that. But yeah, very good 427 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 1: players coming up that are sons of former players, and 428 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: it just it yeah, well it makes you, it makes 429 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: you feel old and thinking about the good old days. 430 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:37,679 Speaker 1: But e J. Warner is one of them too, because 431 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,400 Speaker 1: you just remember Kurt Warner's story and how his family 432 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 1: came to be. And if you saw the movie American Underdog, 433 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: you saw that story come to fruition. So pretty amazing 434 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 1: stuff from Kurt Warner and his son Eja Warner. Pretty 435 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: good player too. He's got his uphill battle with Temple 436 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 1: or not what Temple used to be when they had 437 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: a son Reddick and some of the players then but PJ. Walker, 438 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,879 Speaker 1: But they'll they'll get back. They have the ability to 439 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 1: get back being there in Philly. So EJ. Warner just 440 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 1: one of the Suns playing in college football that we 441 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 1: all watched their dad's for a very very long time. Now, 442 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 1: somebody that we have listened to and read for a 443 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 1: very long time. It is John McClain, the General. He 444 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 1: is next right here in Texas, Alexis welcome back this 445 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: money edition of Texans All Access sim your host, John 446 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 1: Aarris Football at a sideline reporter, glad to be with 447 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:28,120 Speaker 1: you and joining us right now. The General John McClain 448 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 1: and the most consistent player I think on this roster 449 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:36,120 Speaker 1: right now has got to be Damian Pierced. So, General, 450 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 1: what are your thoughts about the rookie running back? You 451 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,680 Speaker 1: predict a thousand yards? Your thoughts through six games there's 452 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: at one hundred and seventeen yards from Screamers because he 453 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 1: caught four passes for twenty five yards. And you know 454 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 1: it's got to kill the coaches and the players. They 455 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: go into the fourth quarter with the lead in every 456 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 1: game this season, They've had a chance to win in 457 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:02,120 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, but the run defense just killed them. 458 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 1: I can't remember a game in which a team did 459 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:11,360 Speaker 1: what the Raiders did touchdown drives eighty two, seventy five, 460 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 1: seventy six, and eighty one yards. On those four drives, 461 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,919 Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs had thirteen carries one hundred and nineteen yards. 462 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:23,119 Speaker 1: That's nine point two to carry in three touchdowns. Derrick 463 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 1: Henry's coming to town. He had one hundred and twenty 464 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 1: eight yards. Titans don't score much. They had one touchdown 465 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:33,200 Speaker 1: against the Colts on offense, and the Colts beat themselves 466 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: with two Matt Ryan interceptions, one to pick six. But 467 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 1: I would think that Lovey Smith. Then he said it 468 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 1: after the game about the offense did play well. I 469 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 1: don't know how that pick six against Davis Mills. They 470 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: were desperation mode. I thought in the third quarter Pep 471 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: Hamilton let Mills throw the ball down the field more 472 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,400 Speaker 1: than any time they had. The protection has been good, 473 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,879 Speaker 1: Larmy Tonsil has been playing great. They had a couple 474 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: of bad penalties that hurt them in difficult situations. But 475 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,479 Speaker 1: the thing is there. They've been in every game and 476 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: had a chance to win every game in the fourth quarter, 477 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: and I keep thinking, Okay, they're either going to make 478 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 1: plays to win that or are there not or they're 479 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: gonna make enough bad plays not to be in that 480 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 1: situation in the fourth quarter. But I think it both. 481 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,679 Speaker 1: It speaks well of the players and the coaches the 482 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,479 Speaker 1: fact that they are in that position. You know, they 483 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: beat the Titans at Nashville last year, lost to them 484 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: by three in that last game here in which Mills 485 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 1: was great and the Titans. I think we're a better 486 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 1: team last year because they had a j. Brown, they 487 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:47,880 Speaker 1: had Taylor Lawan at left tackle, and Harold Landry. Mike 488 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 1: Rabel's doing another great job of coaching overcoming the loss 489 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 1: of those three key players. So this game is probably 490 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 1: gonna be closed, and I would venture to say in 491 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:01,160 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, the Texans will have a chance to win. Okay, 492 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 1: So here's a tribute question for both of you. How 493 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,159 Speaker 1: many times did the Texas punt in the first three quarters? 494 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:12,680 Speaker 1: Zero zero? Didn't punt until the fourth quarter, punted once 495 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:16,239 Speaker 1: because miss field goal made field goal touchdowns all right, 496 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 1: end of half was one of them, and then the 497 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,240 Speaker 1: first time was after the fourth and one where they 498 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: hit the delay a game. Then Camp Junston punted punted 499 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: at that point, John, I will ask you mentioned him 500 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 1: a little bit. Davis Mills. I felt like that was 501 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 1: the Davis Mills we were seeing at the end of 502 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: last year that we thought, Okay, if he builds and 503 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,160 Speaker 1: continues to build on that Mark mentioned it. He made 504 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 1: plays off structure. He had that spin out where he 505 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 1: found Philip door set down. He throws the touchdown past 506 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 1: the door set He throws anticipation when he got blitz 507 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: to Chris Moore for a touchdown. I know you, like 508 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,680 Speaker 1: you said, the pick six is what it is. What 509 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: your all thoughts about Davis and what you saw from 510 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: him coming out of the bye. What do you think 511 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 1: that can mean going forward. I'll tell you what's scary 512 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:08,119 Speaker 1: as Nico Collins because he had three catches and he 513 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 1: looked good. And now he's got a hamstring injury. And 514 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 1: any guys come back the next game from a hamstring injury, 515 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 1: it's like a concussion. You don't see guys with concussions 516 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 1: come back in the next game. And he had three 517 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,680 Speaker 1: catches for thirty three yards. That first one was for 518 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 1: fifteen in the first down. So if they don't if 519 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: they don't have him, it's gonna hurt. And Philip door 520 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,880 Speaker 1: Set really stepped up. He had two catches forty five 521 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 1: yards in a touchdown. Chris Moore, of course had the 522 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 1: one touchdown. I want to see more of Jordan Nakens. 523 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 1: That's three games in a row in which he's made 524 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:50,119 Speaker 1: a big play. And in Mills, I don't know what 525 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: it was, but they were just a different offense in 526 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:56,440 Speaker 1: the third quarter, and that's what you want to see 527 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 1: all the time he ended up. I think with three 528 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,439 Speaker 1: hundred and two yards. He's only act one time. I 529 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 1: think the offensive line under George Warhop keeps getting better. 530 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:08,680 Speaker 1: I can't remember. I saw Titus go off and then 531 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: I saw Kenyan Greene go out. That's another big deal. 532 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 1: They need their guys to be help. He came back, 533 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 1: did they? That's good? And so the offensive line has 534 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:22,159 Speaker 1: been really good. You know, George Warhop has been one 535 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 1: of the best line coaches for quite a while. And 536 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:29,119 Speaker 1: was it isn't when we interviewed him, they never forget 537 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,120 Speaker 1: it was up in the press box. Did he say 538 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 1: he wanted them to average four point five yards of carry? 539 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 1: Was that what he said? We looked back, and that's 540 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 1: what Jacksonville average last year. He was all about the 541 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 1: average per carry, an average four point seven. And yesterday's game, 542 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: I Pierce didn't get the ball nearly as much in 543 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: the second half as he did in the first. And 544 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 1: I'll tell you something that I think Davis Mills he 545 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: spread the ball around. He looked at our three of 546 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: the six is hey, guys? He completed passes too. I 547 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: thought he looked. It's really good. John acclaimed with us 548 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 1: on Texans Monday. Okay, let's go around a little bit here, 549 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: because the Titans are next up and they defeated the 550 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 1: Colts yesterday. Titans lead the division at four and two, 551 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 1: plus the Jags man that would have been a sensational 552 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: win for them one more yard. I mean, that was 553 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: like Mike Jones worthy that stop at the goal line 554 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: to prevent the Jacks from getting in as the Giants 555 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 1: prevailed twenty three seventeen. Your thoughts on the division, Titans 556 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 1: are playing doing just well enough to win. They're playing good, 557 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 1: good defense. Ryan Tannehill doesn't throw the ball a lot, 558 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 1: and it's all based on the play action. Even though 559 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 1: Derren Kenry's not running the ball the way he did 560 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: before he was hurt last year that caused him to 561 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 1: miss the last eight games, he's still you know, he's 562 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: coming off one hundred and twenty eight yards game and 563 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 1: he's you know how he runs against the Texans. We 564 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: know how. It was interesting the Texans went into this 565 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,760 Speaker 1: game thirtieth in the rush against the run, giving up 566 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 1: one hundred sixty four point eight yards. They gave up 567 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: one sixty four and we know that the Texans are 568 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 1: going to face a steady died of Derrick Henry and 569 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 1: Tannehill used to play action just the first time. Texans 570 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 1: hadn't glad to play. But against a J. Brown. They'll 571 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 1: get him in primetime unfortunately with the Eagles, but it's 572 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: to me a different passing game without him in there. 573 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 1: And you know how he's towards the Texans. So I think, 574 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 1: and you look at this game with the Titans there 575 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 1: in first place and there, I don't think they're as 576 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 1: good as they were last year. I think everybody would 577 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: agree to that. And then the Colts were not very good. 578 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: I was reading about them and Matt Ryan and you know, 579 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 1: he had a great game the week before Jonathan Taylor 580 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 1: came back. He was shut down by the Titans and 581 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 1: Jacksonvilles lost what five in a row, And so to 582 00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,959 Speaker 1: the division, not that it was any good last year 583 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 1: year the Titans at best a record and had a 584 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: home field advantage. But God, do not believe that the 585 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 1: home field advantage will come from the ANFC South this season. 586 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 1: Speaking of the Jaguars, general they lost yesterday. So I 587 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 1: ask you this, how for real, for real are the 588 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 1: New York Giants that he and the Texas will play 589 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 1: after that Thursday night game against Eagles. I don't know 590 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: that Daniel Jones ran for over one hundred yards. You 591 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 1: know you don't want your quarterback doing that, but he did. 592 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 1: I think it was I think I looked in it 593 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: was like one hundred and eleven. Then sa Quon Barkley 594 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 1: had another good game. He was over. He was one 595 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 1: hundred and seven for Daniel Jones and then one hundred 596 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: and ten for sae Quon Barkley. Two hundred and thirty 597 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 1: six yards rushing six point one to carry, and Jones 598 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 1: didn't have to throw much nineteen to thirty two oh two, 599 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 1: he didn't have a turnover. And the Jaguars Trevor Lawrence 600 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: through forty three times, no touch stands, no interceptions, and 601 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 1: Travis ctn at here in fourteen yards. I think the Giants, 602 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 1: I keep thinking that bubble is going to burst, and 603 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 1: when they played better teams, but right now you gotta 604 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 1: end it till Brian Dable he's gonna be coach of 605 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 1: the Year and not ra far behind Robert Sala. It's 606 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 1: a good thing that the fans in New York have 607 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 1: the Giants and the Jets. After the Astros just pulverized 608 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 1: the Yankees before we get to them. General, and by 609 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 1: the way, I think with the Texans go to the 610 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 1: Giants November thirteenth, I prescribe rest for Barkley. I think Barley, yeah, 611 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: just sit out that game. You know, you don't want 612 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 1: to hurt yourself anyway. General, Tom Brady, I have to 613 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 1: talk about it. Brady and Rogers. It's fascinating stuff really 614 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 1: to see what's happening. I know both are different situations 615 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 1: each are. But Brady and the Bucks losing to Carolina 616 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 1: with p J Walker and McCaffrey gone and Wilkes coaching, 617 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 1: that is sort of delicious drama here for people who 618 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 1: want to see the end of Tom Brady's career. Your 619 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 1: thoughts on what's going on. P J Walker quarterback of 620 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: the Roughnecks for June Jones, undefeated before the McMahon pulled 621 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 1: the plug on the sealing season and he I played Brady. 622 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 1: He was sixteen to twenty two, one hundred and seventy 623 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 1: seven yards, two touchdowns, no interceptions, a rating of one 624 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 1: twenty six point five. It looks like Mayfield and Darnel 625 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 1: are healthy. He's still going to be the quarterback and 626 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,920 Speaker 1: guests who replaced Christian McCaffrey, ran for one hundred and 627 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 1: eighteen yards, including a sixty yard run Dante Foreman. He 628 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 1: emerged out of nowhere. Brady was just he threw forty 629 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:47,120 Speaker 1: nine times, but man, he just doesn't look the same. 630 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: You know, he's got all that wear and tear on him. 631 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 1: To keep reading that he's going through an ugly divorce 632 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:57,480 Speaker 1: and the gizelle got the top divorce attorney in Florida, 633 00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 1: and they're saying it's all because he came back. I 634 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 1: believe him coming out of retirement. If you're looking for 635 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: the top divorce attorney in Florida, it's going to get ugly. 636 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,439 Speaker 1: And it's got to be more than that. And right 637 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:13,400 Speaker 1: now he looks like he's got one foot out the 638 00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 1: door because you know it's got to be killing him. 639 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,760 Speaker 1: He's not used to playing like this. Mike Evans dropped 640 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 1: the pass would have been a touchdown wide opened. They're 641 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:25,320 Speaker 1: just not the same team. Who is the best team 642 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 1: in the NFC South? Right now? Alabama? You know what, 643 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 1: you might be right they might be able to beat 644 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 1: any team in the NFC South. It is a terrible division. 645 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 1: You know, all the talk we had all over over 646 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: the years with Brady earning less or taking less from 647 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,399 Speaker 1: the Patriots. Right. Remember I always complained about this because 648 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 1: I thought there was something weird about it, something iffy 649 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 1: about it. And here he is, and everyone always said, well, 650 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 1: just just Hell makes so much money, so much more money, 651 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: So what does it matter because gonna pull the money. Well, 652 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:04,880 Speaker 1: good luck with that with the divorce attorneys. That's not happening. 653 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:08,759 Speaker 1: I kind of yeah, those divorced attorneys gonna make a 654 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 1: lot of money. Yeah, they really are, They really are. 655 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:16,360 Speaker 1: They always make out all right, General Astros, Phillies, your thoughts? 656 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: Does Philadelphia get a game on them? Oh? I think 657 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 1: they will. Philadelphia is hitting like crazy, got great power hitting, 658 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 1: They got a good bullpen. Their starters are not as 659 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 1: good as the Astros, and they're hot. They kind of 660 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 1: remind me of Atlanta last year. And and Thompson's done 661 00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 1: a great job since he took over for Girardi. I'm 662 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:41,279 Speaker 1: writing a column for Gallery Sports. On nineteen eighty I 663 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 1: watched every game of that series, and the series was 664 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: five games back then, the last four went to extra innings, 665 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 1: and I was covering the Oilers and Chiefs at Arrowheads Stadium, 666 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 1: in which a rookie named Joe Delane he ran for 667 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 1: a hundred and eighty yards to beat the Oilers. And 668 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 1: after the game, Dell Robertson, who was covering for the Post, 669 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 1: the PR guy, kept the lounge open behind the press box, 670 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,799 Speaker 1: so he knew we wanted to watch the rest of 671 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:11,919 Speaker 1: the Astros, and we went back there. Eighth inning, They're 672 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: up three, Nolan Ryan on the mouth. We knew the 673 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:19,720 Speaker 1: Astros were going to their first World Series, but they didn't. 674 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:23,360 Speaker 1: And looking at the roster last night, all the stars, 675 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:26,720 Speaker 1: five managers came from that game, but all the star 676 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 1: players on both sides of the ball, Mike Schmidt, Pete 677 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:35,880 Speaker 1: Pete Rose, Steve Carlton. Astros had so much talent built 678 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 1: around Nolan Ryan. And it was a fun series and 679 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 1: people want Most of people don't remember that because they're younger, 680 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna write about it because it was monumental 681 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 1: in my life as a sports fan, especially as an 682 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:54,080 Speaker 1: Astros fan. Here Houstonians who do remember that series. It 683 00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:56,840 Speaker 1: was incredible at the time, and I hope it is 684 00:36:56,880 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 1: not that breathtaking fingernail chewing this time as it was 685 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 1: last time. It was bringing it back when it was 686 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:12,200 Speaker 1: the NLCS. Yeah, Phillies and Astros back then, and that 687 00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 1: was that belongs on a list of Houston heartbreaks. It's 688 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 1: not top three, but it's definitely on there someplace. And 689 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 1: it's hard to believe. The Astros, it took them till 690 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 1: two thousand and four to win a playoff series and 691 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 1: look at them now.

In Cincinnati, Joe Burrow went off, I've 718 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 1: seen people tweet about the game the Bengals played yesterday. 719 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,240 Speaker 1: Is this the best game Joe Burrow has ever played? 720 00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 1: Thirty two thirty four forty two four eighty one in 721 00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:59,839 Speaker 1: three touchdowns. Tyler Boyd eight reception, one hundred fifty five 722 00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:02,799 Speaker 1: years an a Tuddy as the Bengals go to four 723 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:06,880 Speaker 1: and three and step up tie to top the AFC 724 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:10,960 Speaker 1: North with Baltimore and the Falcons fall through three and four. 725 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 1: Thirty seventeen. The Cowboys, who we will see in December, 726 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:17,880 Speaker 1: deep bands got all over the Lions. Too many errors 727 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:20,160 Speaker 1: by the Lions although they had a three nothing lead, 728 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 1: had a six to three lead, and then it was 729 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 1: twenty one unanswered points. Ezekiel Elliott scored not once but twice. 730 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,880 Speaker 1: He also got a touchdown from Dak Prescott as the 731 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 1: Cowboys win twenty four to six. Dallas moves to five 732 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:37,799 Speaker 1: and two man a division. We thought the NFC East 733 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 1: was gonna be like it was last year. Not the case. 734 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 1: In the AFC South, the Titans, the Tennessee Titans, came 735 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:49,240 Speaker 1: up with a win nineteen to ten. Yes, the Titans 736 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,240 Speaker 1: are banged up, doesn't matter. They find a way to win. 737 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 1: Colt scored on a touchdown pass from Paris Campbell to 738 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 1: cut the leads from thirteen thirteen to seven, but they 739 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 1: could get no further as Randy Bullock knocked him two 740 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:06,360 Speaker 1: more fuels made in nineteen ten Derrick Henry Shocker thirty 741 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,600 Speaker 1: carries one hundred and twenty eight yards. He is getting 742 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: back on track. Tennessee leads a division at four and two, 743 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:16,720 Speaker 1: Indianapolis at three three and one the Commanders with former 744 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 1: Texan Taylor Heineke at quarterback. They put it on the 745 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 1: Packers yesterday, my goodness. The Packers at a fourteen to 746 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:29,920 Speaker 1: three lead after Devandre Campbell pick six, and then it 747 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 1: was twenty to seven the rest of the way as 748 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:37,319 Speaker 1: the Washington Commanders beat the Packers twenty three twenty one. 749 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,359 Speaker 1: The Commanders go to three and four. The Packers fall 750 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 1: to three and four. The Packers are a mess. And 751 00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:43,719 Speaker 1: good for Taylor Heneche. I always want to see that 752 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: guy doing well, and he has Panthers hammered the Buccaneers. 753 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 1: P J. Walker didn't have to do a bunch, but 754 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:53,600 Speaker 1: he did throw two touchdowns and Deante Foreman ran for 755 00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 1: one hundred eighteen yards. The Panthers moved two and five, 756 00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:59,400 Speaker 1: just a game behind the three and four Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 757 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 1: Think about that one game separates them. The Giants held 758 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,919 Speaker 1: off in late rally from the Jacksonville Jaguars. Christian Kirk 759 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 1: caught a pass at the one yard line and was 760 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,360 Speaker 1: kept out of the end zone. Trevior Lawrence through for 761 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,879 Speaker 1: three ten but Daniel Jones continues to run things well 762 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 1: in New Jersey for the Giants. Two hundred two yards 763 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,839 Speaker 1: passing a touchdown sick. When Barkley ran for one hundred 764 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 1: and ten, Darius Slayton had a big ball catch thirty 765 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:27,680 Speaker 1: two yards touchdown to give the g Men their sixth 766 00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:31,279 Speaker 1: win of the year. The Giants are six and one. Wow. 767 00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:36,480 Speaker 1: The Browns lost Yay. Ravens beat them twenty three twenty 768 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:39,600 Speaker 1: a penalty on a Browns on a potential game time 769 00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:42,320 Speaker 1: field goal, pushing them back five yards. Kade York missed 770 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:45,239 Speaker 1: that kick and the Ravens win twenty three twenty. The 771 00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 1: Browns fall to two and five, and that's a very important, 772 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,520 Speaker 1: very important thing, continue to lose. The Jets went to 773 00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:53,760 Speaker 1: the Broncos and got a dub. I'm Denver No Russell 774 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,360 Speaker 1: Wilson in this one sixteen to nine. Bree saw at 775 00:41:56,400 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 1: a sixty two yard touchdown run but then tore his ACL. 776 00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:02,880 Speaker 1: He is out for the season. Guy.

The win for Seattle, the loss for the Chargers. 779 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:11,600 Speaker 1: With both teams at four and three in the Seattle 780 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:16,759 Speaker 1: Seahawks are tough chiefs. They win forty four to twenty three. 781 00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:19,279 Speaker 1: Even though Christian McCaffrey gets in a game for the 782 00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 1: forty nine Ers, Patrick Mahomes not stop Chiefs five and two, 783 00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers three and four, and on Sunday night, 784 00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 1: Dolphins beat the Steelers sixteen to ten.
