1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,960
Speaker 1: Hello Texans, and welcome to the program that brings you

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 1: inside at RG Stadium, which is chock full of graduations today.

3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:11,800
Speaker 1: Earlier today, the hallways just bustling with graduates so excited

4
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:13,800
Speaker 1: to move on to their next phase of life. And

5
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:15,800
Speaker 1: we're not going to do that just yet, Johnny, you

6
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:18,320
Speaker 1: and me. We are here in the Hyunday Texans Radio studio.

7
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:20,600
Speaker 1: Our next phase of life is the next phase of

8
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:25,280
Speaker 1: the off season program, which is OTA's next week. It is. Yes, absolutely,

9
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:27,319
Speaker 1: that's what we are concerned about. I will say, with

10
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 1: all these graduates, it's really interesting because it runs the gamut.

11
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:32,760
Speaker 1: They'll have HCC in here, they'll have a bunch of

12
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 1: high schools in here. They'll have all kinds of them,

13
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 1: and they're they're all on the service level, and so

14
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 1: it depends on how big the classes and where they're

15
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,199
Speaker 1: taking them and all that kind of stuff. Well, a

16
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,319
Speaker 1: couple of years ago, I remember our studio was right

17
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 1: across from locker room, and I don't think JJ was

18
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: coming out of the locker room. I think he made

19
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 1: me coming out of the weight room, but he came

20
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 1: out and I was in here, yeah, and I didn't

21
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 1: have the door shut, but you know, there are doors,

22
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: an outside door, then there's our or I heard them

23
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 1: going berserk, and I'm like, I'm trying to get radios.

24
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 1: So I'm a little term like, man, y'all have got

25
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: to shut up. I didn't as I'm thinking that, I

26
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 1: walk out there, and then I realized I can see

27
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 1: him like above everybody, and I just see phones and

28
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 1: just everybody's trying to record and all, and he's just

29
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 1: trying to get to the cafeteria, like he's just trying

30
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: to get across the hallway in his own building, in

31
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: his own workplace. He's being mobbed and everybody's getting pictures.

32
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 1: And so of course I had to kind of watch

33
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: that scene unfold, and I'm just seeing these these you know,

34
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,320
Speaker 1: these kids, and they're like, that's Jays. I mean, they're

35
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 1: freaking out, and I'm like, that's one of the things.

36
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 1: Obviously we see JJ, you know, he sat here, did

37
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: interviews with us. You know, we see him in the

38
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: hallway and come nad and say hello whatever. You know,

39
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: it's we're used to it. But these graduates get that man.

40
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: And my graduation, I had a chance to see JJ.

41
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: He was going from there. It was so cool. I

42
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: got a picture. Check it out, and like, looks like Bigfoot,

43
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: so you know, looks like it's pretty good. That's no

44
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: commentary on your appearance, JJ, not at all, Not at all. Okay,

45
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 1: A couple of things here. I want to get to

46
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: this right away, instant replay on past interference. And there's

47
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,079
Speaker 1: a lot going around about this because the owners are

48
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: meeting this month, and there was this proposed tweak that

49
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 1: Mike Florio has been talking awful lot about. It's making

50
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 1: the way around NFL talk circles. Anyway, Johnny, I kind

51
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,359
Speaker 1: of like the proposed tweak. I really do. I think

52
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: that inside the final two minutes, huh, I like it.

53
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:39,959
Speaker 1: If here's here's my tweak, only on scoring plays or turnovers.

54
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: Is the past interference an automatic review? All right? An

55
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 1: automatic review on a flag that oh could have would

56
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: have should have been called. Because that's what bothers me

57
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: a lot about this role. I said it from the

58
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:53,799
Speaker 1: get go, where it's wait a minute, we might have

59
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 1: seen past interference uncalled on a particular play. Let's automatically

60
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: review that. And I know what one's thinking, Well, Mark,

61
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: what about that Saints Rams game? Yeah, but a Sean

62
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 1: Payton could throw a flag. He could challenge that play,

63
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: get challenge and say I think a flag should have

64
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:13,519
Speaker 1: been thrown because you could have willy nilly clock stoppages,

65
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:17,079
Speaker 1: game stoppages. If you allow this thing to be an

66
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,920
Speaker 1: automatic review for a non call, it'll take forever. I mean,

67
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 1: think a college games. Now, the college game is different

68
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 1: because clock stops after first downs and all that kind

69
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: of stuff. It's it's forever, you know, it'll take forever.

70
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,800
Speaker 1: They don't have automatic review. So I mean they have

71
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: automatic review on every play, but not subjectively and not

72
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 1: past interference and not a past interference exactly. So it

73
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: would it would take, it would take forever. So what

74
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: what's what's the tweak? I haven't even seen the tweak.

75
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: All right, The tweak would be that you'd take away

76
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: the automatic review inside the final two minutes and for

77
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 1: a scoring play. All right. Let's so, let's say I

78
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 1: catch a touchdown pass, right, but I've pushed off. Yeah. Well,

79
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: and in the current rules writing, well, they could say upstairs,

80
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: wait a minute, we gotta stop this. We had to

81
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: look at this and say, even if it's not a

82
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: touchdown pass inside the final two minutes and say, you know,

83
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: he pushed off offensive OPI, you know, go back to

84
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: the lot of scrimmage, back it up fifteen or whatever

85
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 1: it is, and then you go from there. And I

86
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 1: don't like that. I mean, I think it's it gets

87
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: a little too hairy and it puts a lot of

88
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: the guys upstairs. I don't mind putting that on the coaches.

89
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: You know, now again scoring play, maybe you make it automatic,

90
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 1: okay either way, you know, because we talked about the

91
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: OPI being something about this I don't like because you know,

92
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,839
Speaker 1: if it's in favor of you the I mean not

93
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 1: the OPI penalty, but the guy who pushed off, right,

94
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,280
Speaker 1: then you start feeling differently about it because push off

95
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,159
Speaker 1: can be so subjective, like you said, and such a

96
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,039
Speaker 1: nuanced kind of thing, and even pass interference itself a

97
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: nuance kind of thing. I say, maybe we just start

98
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 1: over and say, let the coaches throw the challenge flag.

99
00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: Make those flags extremely valuable. And I know this could

100
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 1: happen a lot potentially in a game, but usually it's

101
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: gonna be one or two plays they'll have one or

102
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 1: two flags. How many flags do coaches keep in their

103
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: pockets on the way to the locker room after the game,

104
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 1: there's a ton well yeah there, yeah, I mean the

105
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: one flag they have they they throw. How many how

106
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 1: many times do coaches go to the locker room with

107
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 1: a challenge they didn't use? Yeah, I agree, I mean

108
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: every game. I mean, has Bill O'Brien, how many times

109
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 1: have he has he used up all his challenges? Don't once?

110
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 1: I can think of one time. I can think of

111
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: one time, and that was the Patriots in twenty fifteen

112
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,560
Speaker 1: on that Sunday night. They were like back to back

113
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: places where he's yeah, and he got both of them.

114
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 1: He got both of them, but and I'm trying to right,

115
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,040
Speaker 1: so he gets the third and I think he threw

116
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 1: it on the third as well. So he's out at

117
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,279
Speaker 1: that point. But in two minutes, you know, so you're

118
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:51,280
Speaker 1: protected against that because inside two minutes everything's reviewable. Maybe

119
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 1: you make this thing everything's reviewable. Yeah, that's so at

120
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: that point, Why why would you not follow what you're

121
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 1: already doing for review I don't know, why why would

122
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: you not follow? And just not to say that you

123
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 1: just like sneak it in, but just add it to

124
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: the list of things that are reviewable per your challenge flag,

125
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: so you can challenge a ball spot you can challenge,

126
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: you know, two feet in or one foot out, whatever

127
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 1: you can challenge with that. Why can't you just throw

128
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 1: that in and do it the same way, Because to me,

129
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 1: I think it gets more note of things get too

130
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,280
Speaker 1: complicated for coaches. But if all of a sudden you

131
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: could tell them, look, you can throw the red challenge

132
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 1: flag on these things before two minutes, but not this thing. Well,

133
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 1: often they want clarification, right, and what happens is they

134
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: call a time out to get clarification and they end

135
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: up having to throw a flag and then they lose

136
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 1: the time out. If they lose the flag, that they

137
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,719
Speaker 1: lost another time out because they called it in the

138
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,039
Speaker 1: first place. So to me, just be consistent with it.

139
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: And that is with the items that are reviewable, let

140
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 1: them be reviewable up to two minutes, and then within

141
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: two minutes, especially with this one, if it's an egregious

142
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 1: pass interference, then whistle down, we're gonna review this one.

143
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: And I just don't know why you would change the

144
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 1: review thought pattern for coaches. Yep, it's already tough enough

145
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: to decide whether you're gonna review it or not. But

146
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 1: just say inside two minutes of a half that goes

147
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: upstairs for everything that's reviewable, which now includes pass interference.

148
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: That to me makes it that much easier for the coaches.

149
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 1: It makes it that much easier. And it thought being

150
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 1: you're only gonna send something upstairs if it ends up

151
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: being an egregious pass, and you if you use that

152
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 1: flag that every year you hear the complaints. There is

153
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 1: no recourse, right, there's no recourse for this stuff. Now

154
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 1: there is, And I think if you go a little

155
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: of the way, you can always go further. Yeah, but

156
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: it's hard to go back. So let's just see how

157
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: it works out. All right. A couple of things about

158
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 1: the show, which is already we're well into it, but

159
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a special team's focus today with

160
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 1: three guys who are big gone special teams for this squad,

161
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: and we'll talk about some of the other guys as well.

162
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 1: I think it's very interesting how the Texans improved dramatically

163
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: in special teams with the addition of certain players, certainly,

164
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: but also Brad Seely as the coordinator. And you wonder

165
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 1: Brian Gaine picked up a lot of guys after the

166
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: cuts in the preseason last year, and you wonder, well,

167
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: the guys he picked up, they're around here. Now, how

168
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 1: are they gonna factor in? Are you gonna pick up

169
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: more guys? You're gonna cut some of these guys. This

170
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: is gonna be very interesting to watch a playoff because

171
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,239
Speaker 1: these guys did so well for you, including Buddy Howe,

172
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 1: who you will hear from tonight, and Terrell Adams who

173
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 1: you will hear from tonight. But the guy who maybe

174
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: is the star of special Teams. Boy, what a weird

175
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,439
Speaker 1: way to put it, is the place kicker, Kayimi Fairbearon,

176
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: Kayami knu Alua Mekiki Fairbaron. And I won't use the

177
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 1: name too often, but that's it. That's his full thirty

178
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: sixth letter first name. Anyway, Johnny and I visited with him.

179
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: He loves the way things are going for him this offseason.

180
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 1: His life is changing. First time this off season where

181
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 1: I've stayed here permanently. Kay it's been in blast got

182
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 1: my fiance out here, she got she got a job

183
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 1: out here, really coming in, going to work. She likes it,

184
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 1: loving Houston. Yeah, no doubt, that's really good. That's really good.

185
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: How did you convince her of that? Just work? Um?

186
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 1: She she's a really smart girl. She Uh, she's a

187
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 1: software engineer at JP Morgan. Oh wow, yeah, so she's

188
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,439
Speaker 1: pretty uh pretly sought after, like she's she's got work.

189
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 1: Is she from home? She from Yeah, we grew up

190
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,839
Speaker 1: together back at home in Hawaii and she came here.

191
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 1: What she think Houston? She loves it? Actually, yeah, she

192
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 1: likes it a lot. There could be a lot of

193
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 1: traffic on Oahu. I mean there's no Yeah, they got

194
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: major problems. Yeah, it's such a tight knit problem, less

195
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 1: severe here in some areas. In any areas, way, everything's bigger.

196
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know that lane's on the traffic now.

197
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:49,719
Speaker 1: I need to get to Hawaii to be able to

198
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: figure that out. Not that my whole family would go

199
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: with me at that point. Kimie, Let's go back to

200
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 1: last year a little bit, Week four, Indianapolis, thirty four,

201
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 1: thirty four. It's coming down to a final kick. And

202
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: it's funny because when we talked about the season going

203
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: in and we talked about different things, we were talking

204
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 1: about you and I remember Mark saying in particular, we

205
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,559
Speaker 1: were like, Kimie's never had a chance to know, hit

206
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: a game winner. You've never had a chance to a

207
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: game winner. Then you nailed two against the two biggest

208
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 1: rivals for the Texans. What was that feeling like in

209
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 1: those two hitting those two field goals. Honestly, I wasn't

210
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 1: even really thinking about just you know, that one kick.

211
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 1: I was just thinking about for our team, you know,

212
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 1: getting after an all and three start, we bounced back

213
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 1: with those two big wins, and that's what really got

214
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 1: us on a roll. Like I remember guys in the

215
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 1: locker room saying, you know, that's all we need. That's

216
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: all we need, all those two dubs, and that's what

217
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: got us going if you had your druthers about you.

218
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,559
Speaker 1: I mean, the extra point being thirty three yards away.

219
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: In the older days it was a twenty yard kick.

220
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 1: So it is different. But as kickers do kickers like

221
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: that or because it makes you more valuable really, But

222
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: on the other hand, it's more difficult. Yeah, that's all mindset,

223
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 1: you know how you think about it. You you can't

224
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 1: go out there like the old ones and just kind

225
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 1: of it's a gimmy kick, you know. Yeah, Um, you

226
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 1: really got to lock in, focus in and you know,

227
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: not take it as just another play, just another pat

228
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:13,560
Speaker 1: you know, it matters, kin, I mean the one that

229
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: sticks out to me. And it's weird because where I

230
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 1: was standing, I was staying literally underneath the upright, so

231
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 1: I couldn't see it until I watched it back on film.

232
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 1: Do you remember the Denver fuel goal that you hit

233
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 1: that actually put us in the lead. It was late

234
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: in the third quarter, Yeah, right, Yeah, the wind picked

235
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: up and made you're the kick looked like a whiffleball throw.

236
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: Oh no, yeah, those because you don't get to practice

237
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 1: in that wins. You kind of just gotta trust your line.

238
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: And even though it's you know, coming around with that

239
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 1: little hook, it's you just gotta trust it. Do you

240
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 1: do you factor that in kind of like a golfer, like, man,

241
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 1: this wind is really strong, so I want to hit

242
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 1: it inside the up What's kind of the approach when

243
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:57,320
Speaker 1: you have a weather situation like that, right? Depending on

244
00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,559
Speaker 1: the wind um, you know, you find your line. I

245
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 1: usually find something out in the crowd of like a

246
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 1: little uh you know, uh, you know, a little letter

247
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 1: behind in the in the audience, and then aim for

248
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,559
Speaker 1: that and trust the wind that will bring you back.

249
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 1: But you know, you you address you like your missus,

250
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 1: you know, like how how much margin America can you

251
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 1: have And you know, I kind of you never want

252
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: to give away the post most of the time, but

253
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: in that situation, I did, you know, I aimed outside

254
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:24,839
Speaker 1: the post and brought it back in. So one more

255
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: for you here. Trevor Daniel says that learning how to

256
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 1: hold the laces right or two to get the hold

257
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: right and where the laces aren't everything, that was one

258
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: of the things that made him kind of nervous early

259
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 1: on as he was taking over the punny duties. It's

260
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 1: a it's a big job. It's a big job, so

261
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: how do you help him out with that? Um? It's

262
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 1: really a thankless job. Honestly, no one really gives enough

263
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 1: credit to those guys. Um. But honestly it's just repetition.

264
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 1: And you know, I just tell him I trust him,

265
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 1: like you know, let's get the reps and build that trust.

266
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 1: And that's all it is. Really kind me. Thanks a lot,

267
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:55,839
Speaker 1: good luck to you. Thank you guys, have it going.

268
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 1: I can't believe we didn't bring up eighth Ventura Pet

269
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,840
Speaker 1: detective with him. You think he's seen it, oh man,

270
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,079
Speaker 1: laces out. I don't think so. It's my guess. I

271
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 1: don't think so. By the way, I meant to say this,

272
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 1: but then we got got into the interview yesterday. You know,

273
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 1: I mentioned to him that my my daughter has a

274
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: pretty big crush on him. Oh yes, and so I

275
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 1: showed her his middle name and my son in the back.

276
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 1: Just being the wise ass that he is, He's like,

277
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 1: I'll give you a one hundred bucks if you could

278
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: say that. And I was like, I bet mister Vandermer

279
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,080
Speaker 1: could say it, and then he stopped him. Way, well,

280
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: I'm not giving him a hundred bucks, but I told

281
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 1: him that you could say it. So that was kind

282
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: of a That was an interesting topic in the car

283
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:38,960
Speaker 1: driving with the kids yesterday, Fairbaron, Like you mentioned, I've

284
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 1: always brought it up that prior to the season never

285
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,080
Speaker 1: had to make a big game winner really for the

286
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 1: Texans at the Buzzer, and he did it back to

287
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 1: back in weeks three and four, last weeks four and

288
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 1: five last year. But also he's never missed a big kick,

289
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 1: which is huge to me. You know, yeah, I mean

290
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 1: he's missed some, they all missed some, but he's never

291
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,599
Speaker 1: missed a big one, and that's huge as well. Knockwood,

292
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,679
Speaker 1: knock whatever you're in knocking, because that's so important that

293
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 1: your place kicker continues to be clutched. How about that?

294
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 1: You've said, you said that all of off season heading

295
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 1: into this season, and then not only does he get one,

296
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: he gets two. Not only does he do it in

297
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: one week, he does it in consecutive weeks. Not only

298
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 1: does he do it against one rival, he does it

299
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 1: against both of them. Yep, I mean that was to

300
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: mean just to get Indie in Dallas in overtime with

301
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 1: a fair barren field goal, that's pretty amazing if he

302
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 1: could have done it against Tennessee because he didn't get

303
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 1: the opportunity, right, Yeah, it was against Tennessee. If they

304
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: get in range, he's kicking the game tying field goal

305
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 1: and maybe the game winner in that one as well.

306
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 1: So you'd love to see him get that chance. I well,

307
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 1: remember what that taught us because we got to week

308
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,440
Speaker 1: four because of Week two. So yeah, I would have

309
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 1: liked to have seen what de Shaun could have done

310
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 1: with those seventeen seconds as he did in Week four.

311
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 1: Give him Kaymie a shot that would have been a

312
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 1: that would have been a long one, that would have

313
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: been a pretty significant one. But the one I asked

314
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: him about in Denver I couldn't see the ball move

315
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 1: that much from my angles. I was right into the

316
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 1: goal post. When I went back and watched on TV, Mark,

317
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 1: I'm telling you that ball moved the width of the

318
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 1: goal post. Luckily he had it at the right upright.

319
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 1: The wind was that bad, and I remember it being

320
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 1: that bad because his kicking had hit me in the head.

321
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: Like I was standing there ready for a play and

322
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 1: the wind blew in him. Bang hit me in the head.

323
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: I was like, man, I'm protocol. Odell Beckham Junior, like, man,

324
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 1: what is going Oh? Just hit me right in the

325
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: back of the dome. So that one, to me was

326
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: as tough as kick he had all year because the

327
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 1: wind was so bad at that moment. All right, Next up,

328
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 1: some things that guys brought up with me this morning.

329
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 1: They proposed a trade, and Johnny'll react to it as well.

330
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: And also, Buddy, how special teams stand out for this team?

331
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 1: Running back and later on Terrell Adams. You want to

332
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 1: hear what he has to say. He made a huge

333
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 1: play last year for this team. He's another special teams

334
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 1: stand out. It's Texans Radio. Mark Vanderber, John Harris with

335
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: you Friday night. Just got paid No, I'm not gonna

336
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 1: sing that song. I really didn't just get paid, but

337
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 1: I really feel like singing that on Friday nights because

338
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 1: it's a natural aggression, right of course, absolute party hard.

339
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna start singing I was about too, though,

340
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 1: because I feel like it. I had three espressos this afternoon,

341
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 1: so I feel pretty charged up. Still, you can sing it,

342
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: I don't mind. Got the Flag Football Championship this weekend too,

343
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 1: in the Go Texan League down in New Territory, vander

344
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 1: Kids team. Well, you never feel you never feel great, Johnny,

345
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 1: You know how it is your coach doesn't matter if

346
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 1: you're the favorite or not. In fact, we got the

347
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 1: bulls eye right on our backs here. Okay, this is

348
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 1: year six we've won the championship if we win it

349
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 1: this year. We've won it four times, so we've wanted

350
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: three out of five. So this is a juggernaut. We

351
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 1: are we. I look, I might not be a great coach,

352
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 1: but I'm a great general manager. I can tell you

353
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 1: that Flag football with kids, I am the general manager extraordinary.

354
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 1: All right. You just you just get the best players

355
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 1: and you delegate. That's what I say. So they're really

356
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 1: great kids. And that's the whole thing. I just want

357
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 1: great kids. Well you have to be pretty good too,

358
00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 1: but I want great team. I got a kid on

359
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 1: my team. He's got three brothers and a sister. I'm

360
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 1: dying to talk about this kid, but I feel like

361
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: it's not nice to like violate privacy and everything. But

362
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 1: let me tell you something you will hear from his family.

363
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 1: All the kids are really extraordinary athletes. The girl might

364
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 1: be the best one, but all these kids are gonna

365
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:17,720
Speaker 1: they're great students. They're all gonna get offers to do

366
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 1: something in college. So I'm really eager to follow their progress.

367
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 1: And I've been with this kids in second grade, so

368
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 1: he's just one of them. It's really fun anyway, just

369
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,359
Speaker 1: started to mention that. And flag football is a great sport.

370
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,120
Speaker 1: By the way, we promoted as a Houston Texans organization,

371
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,639
Speaker 1: NFL organization wherever you can find it. Y MCA leagues

372
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:38,399
Speaker 1: are outstanding. The NFL play sixty leagues. You know, just

373
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 1: google the stuff. They're out there for you. And I

374
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: can tell you this. I'm coaching the kindergarten kid, Vander

375
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 1: kid too on his team, and it's a great sport

376
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,400
Speaker 1: for kids because It's all right, go pull the flags

377
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 1: of the kid who has the ball. It's pretty easy

378
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: that way. You know, when you teach these little kids

379
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,280
Speaker 1: basketball is like they risk bands and you can only

380
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 1: guard the kid who has the same color rich band

381
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 1: as you, and it gets very complex for these kids.

382
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: This is more like the actual sport. So have some

383
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 1: fun with it. Enjoy, parents, and contact me via Twitter

384
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 1: or Facebook if you want more information on this stuff.

385
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 1: The flag football concept. Mark, I'm telling you right now,

386
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 1: it's more difficult than playing tackle. Yeah, I think you, guys,

387
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 1: I think it makes I think it makes you a

388
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,679
Speaker 1: better tackle football player. I would have no problem now.

389
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:24,680
Speaker 1: I played junior high football starting seventh grade, so I

390
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: played seveneh grade junior high. In sixth grade, I played

391
00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 1: Pop Warner, so I played tackle all the way along.

392
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: But I'm telling you I would have been a better

393
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,879
Speaker 1: tackler had I continue to play flag football, because when

394
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,639
Speaker 1: you think about flag football, there's one spot where you

395
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 1: can make a tackle. If I'm going to play tackle football,

396
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: I can grab your shoelace, I can hit you face up,

397
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 1: I can grab your arm. You're playing flag football. You

398
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 1: got one shot, actually two shots. It's at the same spot.

399
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,680
Speaker 1: They're tough. But what I realized is I played flag

400
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: football after I played tackle football, and I kept want

401
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 1: to tackle everybody. But which is not surprising, Yeah, which

402
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 1: not surprising. But I realized as I played it week

403
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 1: after week after week, how much more difficult it was

404
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,239
Speaker 1: to pull the flag. How to actually is Well, the

405
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 1: thing is because you have to decide if you square

406
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,399
Speaker 1: up on them as if you're gonna tackle. It's harder

407
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 1: to pull the flag, right, but it's almost a way

408
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 1: to slow them down if you will, and then you

409
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 1: gotta get it as they're going by. And it's tough,

410
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:20,679
Speaker 1: Like that's so hardress when people are able to do

411
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 1: it so hard? All right, A couple of quick things here.

412
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,679
Speaker 1: Patrick Peterson's name came up when I was on the

413
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: morning show with Paul Gallant and Seth Payne, and they're like,

414
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 1: you gotta make a deal for Patrick Peterson. My whole

415
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 1: thing is this when when and you've done talk radio

416
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 1: forever so all by and in any sport you get

417
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:40,199
Speaker 1: trade suggestions from the callers, but I always say this,

418
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:41,640
Speaker 1: you always have to look at it from the other

419
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 1: person's point of view, Right, who are you trading with?

420
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 1: And what is their objective here? If I'm Steve Cohn,

421
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm so quick to trade Peterson anyway,

422
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,360
Speaker 1: because all right, I'll get a draft choice, I'll get

423
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 1: whatever I get. But I gotta not necessarily go to

424
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 1: the playoffs this year. But I gotta show progress. And

425
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 1: even if Peterson has to sit the first six games

426
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 1: on my team, the Arizona Cardinals, I know that I

427
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 1: can get Peterson to help me win some games down

428
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,640
Speaker 1: the stretch. I'm gonna if I win seven games this year,

429
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:11,919
Speaker 1: that shows progress and we're going in the right direction.

430
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 1: And let's go from here. We got Kyler Murray's doing

431
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: a good job. You know, hypothetically, if I trade Peterson, yeah,

432
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 1: I got a third round draft choice, second round, whatever

433
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: I got, but it's not gonna help me for another

434
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 1: year or two, and I might be gone by then.

435
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 1: How do you see it? I see it the same way.

436
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,679
Speaker 1: Look at what went on with the Jets. Use the

437
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 1: Jets as an example. What you had with the Jets

438
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,959
Speaker 1: is a GM that have been there for four years.

439
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 1: I think Mike had been there for four years. You

440
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 1: had a coach that's just stepping into the role. Now

441
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 1: we have seen in Arizona being one of them where

442
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 1: a coach was there only for a year. But that's

443
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,880
Speaker 1: pretty rare. So if you're a new coach walking into

444
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 1: that situation, you're thinking, I'm here for what's the length

445
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:51,880
Speaker 1: of my contract? Three years, four years, five years, usually

446
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 1: four five years. I'm thinking I'm gonna get close to that.

447
00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,640
Speaker 1: So I can see somebody walking in that situation as

448
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 1: a coach going, yes, I want to win games, but

449
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be here for a few years, so i

450
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 1: gotta make sure I change the culture the way I

451
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 1: want it and get the right guys and then all that.

452
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,159
Speaker 1: But it can also work the other way too. In

453
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 1: that with mcagnet, he's thinking, I'm in here for four years.

454
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 1: I gotta make a splash. I gotta get this team

455
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 1: to win games now. That's the only way I'm sticking around.

456
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 1: And it can go the other way too. If you've

457
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,639
Speaker 1: got a brand new GM. Think of the Colts a

458
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,359
Speaker 1: few years ago. Ballad was a brand new GM and

459
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,919
Speaker 1: Chuck mcgono had been there for a few years, and

460
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 1: Chuck was a little bit on shaky ground with Gregson

461
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,280
Speaker 1: and then they have a tough year Andrew's heart Jacobe's

462
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 1: in there, and you know, Ballad made up his mind,

463
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go in a different direction. And so at

464
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 1: least at this point, Ballad and Reich are sort ofly,

465
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 1: sort of aligned from when they came in, like, yeah,

466
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,120
Speaker 1: we're gonna build this the right way. Now their timetable

467
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,639
Speaker 1: might be a little head of schedule, but that was

468
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:56,399
Speaker 1: a situation with the Colts where it was the other

469
00:21:56,440 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 1: way around. Coaches gotta win, the coaches gotta win. GM

470
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 1: is like, I got to build this thing a little

471
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: bit more long term, but it flips at some point

472
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 1: for guys. I think Steve Kim was in that sort

473
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,160
Speaker 1: of dilemma. He's like, look, I just drafted a quarterback

474
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 1: last year, Now I gotta draft another one. Cliff Kingsbury

475
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:16,760
Speaker 1: is not expected to win ten games in year one, right,

476
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 1: but if you win seven, Steve Kim and Kingsbury look good.

477
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 1: All right? Special teams. That's kind of the sub theme

478
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,680
Speaker 1: of the show today, Buddy, how like I did well

479
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 1: on special teams. So the Texans last year shows up

480
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 1: after the cuts as a running back, but he knew

481
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,239
Speaker 1: what he was here to do. Come in and they

482
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 1: told me my role. They told me what to focus on,

483
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,360
Speaker 1: and that's what I did. So every day I came

484
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 1: in Maysa me impack and learn what I had to

485
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 1: learn to go out there and be effective. And just

486
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 1: going out there playing fast, I having fun was one

487
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 1: of the main things you could do as a football player.

488
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 1: So doing that it helped me be successful throughout the year. Buddy,

489
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 1: how was that process for you? You spend training camp

490
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:53,959
Speaker 1: with the Dolphins and then all of a sudden you

491
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,639
Speaker 1: get to that point and you don't make the Dolphins,

492
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,359
Speaker 1: but the Texas call up and say, hey, we claimed

493
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,919
Speaker 1: John Waivers. Come on over here. You haven't had that

494
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 1: bonding time in training camp and then you kind of

495
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,880
Speaker 1: throw right into the fire week one. What's that process

496
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 1: like for you? Um? It was crazy because I've never

497
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,879
Speaker 1: really been away from home, been home my entire life. Yeah,

498
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 1: Miami's your home. Yeah, Miam my home. So you know,

499
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 1: I went to Flori Atlantic, so that's right up the road.

500
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: So shoot, I was giving like five hours to come

501
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 1: get ready to come to Houston, and it was like

502
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 1: I didn't really get it until, like, you know, I

503
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 1: got home my mom and I was like, oh, yeah,

504
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 1: I'm going to Houston. She was like you know, but

505
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,400
Speaker 1: getting in you know, great coaches, you know, they gave

506
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 1: me everything possible to have me up beating, ready for

507
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,200
Speaker 1: the next game. So I didn't play New England game,

508
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:39,120
Speaker 1: but the next game after that I was in. So

509
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 1: just you know, following instructions, doing what you gotta do,

510
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 1: be in intensive end, wanting to get ahead and learned

511
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:48,200
Speaker 1: was the best thing that I did. And once you win,

512
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:49,920
Speaker 1: you just play football. At the end of the day's

513
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: football and there's no tricks, there's no gimmick to it.

514
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,679
Speaker 1: But you know, just going out there having fun was

515
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 1: my main thing. I'm grateful to be here. I was

516
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:58,639
Speaker 1: happy to be here. So shoot, that was a It

517
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,399
Speaker 1: was just a plus for me that somebody claim me

518
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 1: to put me on the FIFTYE. Are you lobby for carries?

519
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 1: Are you begging for carriage right now? Just at it,

520
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 1: Like you know, as a running back, you would love

521
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,360
Speaker 1: to get a carry. But when you know your role,

522
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,960
Speaker 1: you play your role. It's a good feeling to go

523
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 1: out there and compete because some people can get frustrated

524
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 1: trying to beg for carries and one carries and you

525
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 1: don't get a carried and you get frustrated. So I

526
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 1: don't really set myself up for that mindset. I just

527
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 1: know they want me here for special teams. Make an

528
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 1: impact on special teams, so that's my thing. But if

529
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 1: I get a carry, that's a bonus to me. It's

530
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 1: like it's tying a role. But you know, I worked

531
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,400
Speaker 1: hard day of the day out on scout teams, um

532
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 1: look team when the real team, So if a carry

533
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 1: comes my way, I wouldn't I won't complain. But I'm

534
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 1: not gonna sit here and say as a running back,

535
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 1: I don't want to carry. But as a smart player,

536
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 1: I know my role. So I focused on my role.

537
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 1: But we've been in Houston for a long time, so

538
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: we obviously know all the different places to go next.

539
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:57,120
Speaker 1: You're new to Houston. How different was the transition coming

540
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 1: from Miami where you lived your entire life, played college ball,

541
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden you got to come to

542
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:03,919
Speaker 1: this place. I imagine you felt a little bit like

543
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 1: a foreigner. But how's it. How's it been? Kind of

544
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 1: getting used to living in Houston and being here. First

545
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 1: thing I'm said, Houston is big. Yeah, it's like Texas

546
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 1: is huge, and it's like everything's like a thirty minute

547
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 1: drive twenty minute drive, so you know, at first everywhere. Yeah.

548
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 1: So at first my first year, I just you know,

549
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 1: stayed in the facility, you know, stay close, live right

550
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:24,920
Speaker 1: down the street. So I didn't really try to complicate things.

551
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 1: But now as I'm like getting older, I'm trying to

552
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,600
Speaker 1: like move around see more places than you know, to

553
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,919
Speaker 1: go eat and stuff like that. And I just realized,

554
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:33,680
Speaker 1: you want to go somewhere, you better get ready for

555
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,399
Speaker 1: that twenty five minute job. And for somebody from Miami,

556
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 1: that's like going to Fort Lauderdale Broward, which is kind

557
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,439
Speaker 1: of like out the way. Yeah, so you know, just

558
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,959
Speaker 1: getting used to traveling with time, patience, and you know,

559
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,160
Speaker 1: venturing around. But you know, Houston it's a good place

560
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,880
Speaker 1: because everybody's nice. Yeah, it's not really much hostile, and

561
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 1: you know, everybody's forth Houston. Yeah, you know, you know,

562
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 1: Miami is a whole bunch of everything over there. So

563
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 1: having people treat you what you respect, that was one

564
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 1: of the main things that I noticed, and even came

565
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 1: up she was like, I noticed everybody so nice. Man.

566
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 1: It's a great feeling. But you know, I'm just getting

567
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,159
Speaker 1: used to the distance, the time, absolutely being prepared for

568
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 1: just making that drive. Did FAU have an indoor practice facility? Nah? Okay, Nah,

569
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:16,439
Speaker 1: they when I was going in and they promised that

570
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:21,680
Speaker 1: when Lane couldn't get it done, it was close Partridge

571
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 1: and then Lane took over. But I think now they

572
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 1: just added in addition to the stadium to get that started.

573
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,200
Speaker 1: But yeah, like they promised me that my freshman year

574
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:32,919
Speaker 1: and then like I think like my senior year, we

575
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,400
Speaker 1: did like a groundbreaking speech and they still ain't break

576
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 1: ground and they finally like starting to get stuf Roller's

577
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:40,399
Speaker 1: So you know, it's on the way it should be

578
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 1: on the well, I asked, because every guy from South Florida,

579
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 1: I always like to get the heat comparison the heat

580
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: here versus the heat in South Florida, which there's more

581
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,359
Speaker 1: humidity there, there's no doubt, but I think it's hotter here,

582
00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:53,600
Speaker 1: you know. So it's gonna be interesting this, Okay. So

583
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:57,400
Speaker 1: first off, I could say in Miami, South Florida, when

584
00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 1: you first walk out, you're gonna start sweating. Yeah, amidity

585
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 1: makes you sweat and get wet early. So it's like,

586
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 1: you know, you're already like soaking wet by the beginning

587
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 1: of practice. Here is really dry so like you can

588
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,919
Speaker 1: actually feel it on your skin if you don't have

589
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,119
Speaker 1: long seats, like oh shoot, it's hot. Yeah, but in

590
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 1: Miami is just like as soon as you walk out's out,

591
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 1: I'm dripping. I'm dripping. So you know it's easy to

592
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,320
Speaker 1: take that comparison. All right, we'll continue to compare. That's buddy,

593
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 1: Thanks a lot for joining us, Buddy, how joining us?

594
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 1: Another special team stand out? Terrell Adams coming out next.

595
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 1: It's Texans Radio. A man, But I think the biggest

596
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 1: thing that's kind of carried me through is just my faith, man,

597
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: and my perseverance, just keeping a strong mind in my family.

598
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 1: Like every time I go through my situation, which each

599
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 1: with each team, they kind of just keep motivating and

600
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:42,680
Speaker 1: I just get back to what I know and I

601
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 1: just keep working. So I just kind of like handle

602
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 1: handle what I can on my end and just hope

603
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,639
Speaker 1: for the best every time. So I'm here now and

604
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 1: just ready to see where it takes exactly, Terrell. We

605
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,200
Speaker 1: gotta first of all, we gotta handle some business because

606
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 1: a little while ago DJ Reader was in here and

607
00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 1: he referenced you exactly, So we gotta give you the chance,

608
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 1: you know, for a rebuttal because he seemingly kind of

609
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 1: just scoffed that suggestions that you might make. But I've

610
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 1: got a feeling that and I saw you over there,

611
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 1: you were like, whoa wait a second. All I'm saying is,

612
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 1: if you get Duney back on here and he lets

613
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 1: you know, the one person in the locker room who

614
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 1: actually suggests good music, it will be me. Okay, okay,

615
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 1: all right, you just disrespecting my name, just disrespecting me

616
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 1: all the way. He knows I'll bring the bankers. Yeah,

617
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 1: I tend to agree with you more than reader. I

618
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 1: have that feeling. But we'll talk to Donnie about this.

619
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 1: But he is is he without question v DJ like

620
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 1: you don't like hands down? Okay, drops the bankers. Every

621
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:42,960
Speaker 1: time he comes in and gets brights on the mic.

622
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 1: Is the process for making a Suggestionally, get a little

623
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: suggestion box. You just walk over and say, hey, DJ,

624
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 1: Donny play this one to day? Oh no, So he

625
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 1: gives you a chance. He gives you, like one song chance. Yeah,

626
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 1: and that kind of like sets to tempo for your name,

627
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 1: Like if you suggest a bad song off top, you

628
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 1: have to come back. He wants to take suggestion again.

629
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 1: But me. I've thrown a couple in there, so he

630
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 1: has my respects me Gee, I loved the locker room dynamics.

631
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 1: You've You've been in a few different locker rooms, and

632
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 1: we talked about that through. We talked about this team

633
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen, in particular because the locker room dynamic

634
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 1: for this team was different than other Texas teams. It

635
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 1: was different than other locker rooms. It was a really

636
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 1: tight knit room. Did you sense that while you were

637
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 1: in there? It's weird, man. I don't say this normally, man,

638
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 1: but when I first got here, that was the first

639
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 1: thing I noticed, Like they kind of brought me in

640
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:30,840
Speaker 1: just made me like one of the team. And again

641
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 1: I tried to had to prove my worth, like make

642
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 1: a couple of plays on the field, but they did

643
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 1: initially initially kind of just like took me in. Like

644
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: it was just crazy, as I felt like a brotherhood.

645
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 1: As soon as I walked in, I can realize like

646
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 1: exactly connecting with DJ Dunny you just right off the

647
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:46,760
Speaker 1: hook on on the music and everything and sending right

648
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 1: next to Um, sitting right next to Weeks and man

649
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 1: him chopping it up and then watching kind of Kyemi

650
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,200
Speaker 1: and Dalon play ping pong all day, and I'm like

651
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 1: the worst ping pong player. I'm like the best fan.

652
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 1: I like the brisk coming tarry the whole time. So,

653
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 1: I mean, it just feels like home right off the top. Man.

654
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 1: It's interesting because you were here in October for the

655
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,680
Speaker 1: winning streak was in progress at that point, and then

656
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 1: you end up back with the forty nine ers for

657
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: a bit and then back here and then had to

658
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 1: be strange to get back after it with San Francisco

659
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,240
Speaker 1: for a little bit. Yeah, it definitely was, man. It

660
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 1: was just like, um, it's like Ben sick from home. Man,

661
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 1: I wanted to be back home so bad, man. But

662
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 1: of course situation for me at the time, and then

663
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,479
Speaker 1: all worked out the damn man. But it was just somewhere.

664
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,200
Speaker 1: It was like a weird time period, man, the one

665
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 1: there was a lot of play. There are a lot

666
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 1: of players that stick out in that nine game winning streak,

667
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 1: and I think about all the different things that Buffalo

668
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 1: game was. It was such a weird game in so

669
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 1: many respects because you know, offensively, we can't do a

670
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 1: whole lot that day because the Shawn's banged up and

671
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,560
Speaker 1: we're just not moving to football and Buffalo's defenses very

672
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 1: very good. But in that game, the special teams were

673
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 1: incredible and you were a big part of that. What

674
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 1: was that feeling like when you get the block and

675
00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:58,280
Speaker 1: you get it right there on the sideline of guys

676
00:30:58,320 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: are going on. What was that feeling like when you

677
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 1: get that block punt in that Buffalo game? It's crazy, man,

678
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,080
Speaker 1: because I was like, my initiating initiation into the brotherhood

679
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 1: of the Texas was like way to play. Yeah, it's like, oh,

680
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 1: he's one of us, you know what I mean. I

681
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 1: can remember the meeting afterwards and it just um making

682
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 1: that play, kind of just um, just getting handshakes from

683
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:16,760
Speaker 1: guys and like it was funny because the meeting the

684
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 1: next day, coaches like, uh, look at you guys shaking

685
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 1: up Ty. I bet you didn't know his name. Ty

686
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 1: was like it was just funny, man, But you're wearing

687
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 1: the right. This is a great experience, man. Then kind

688
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: of get to know guys after that, and then you

689
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 1: know what I mean, you start getting interested in each other.

690
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 1: So so you went to West Georgia, yep, yep. Okay,

691
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 1: So how did how did all that go down? Coming

692
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 1: out of high school and everything. So um Man I

693
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 1: got like the most like probably boring his story every

694
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,960
Speaker 1: like coming out of school, Like I remember, come out

695
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 1: of high school, man Um didn't have many offers at all.

696
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: Um A couple of D three schools, a couple in

697
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 1: YR school. Why is that though? I mean, here you

698
00:31:54,520 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 1: are in the league man, trying to find it. Ryan

699
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 1: explained college football recruiting. It's it's the it's the strangest, weirdest,

700
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 1: off the wall thing ever. I mean, because trying to

701
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 1: figure out why this guy signed a Tennessee but then

702
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 1: you go to West Georgia and that guy goes to

703
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,239
Speaker 1: Tennessee and plays like half a year and doesn't make

704
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 1: it anywhere. But yeah, you find a way to get

705
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:20,960
Speaker 1: into the NFL and been in here for the five years.

706
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 1: It's like trying to explain it is like the most

707
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 1: difficult and weirdest thing exactly. You think it's like a

708
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 1: straight path and it should be more more organized, but

709
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:32,120
Speaker 1: it's not. I mean, it's guys that I've hurt like crazy,

710
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 1: even even in my situation. I've heard like even crazy

711
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 1: situation with guys. I'm watching guys they're going like the

712
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 1: fourth fifth year making pro Bowl and all this, and

713
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 1: they were undrafted went to a smaller school, which is

714
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 1: crazy to think about, but I think, um, honestly, man,

715
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 1: for me coming out, of course, I wasn't. I wasn't

716
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 1: at big. I literally was maybe like two one when

717
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:52,960
Speaker 1: I came to high school was one eighty playing safety.

718
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 1: Oh wow, yeah, it was really a lot smaller, and um,

719
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 1: well there it is, right, And I wound up going

720
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 1: to um West Georgia, LA was the first, like, well,

721
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 1: I had one B one double. A school offered me

722
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 1: at the last minute, recording my cousin, I sent them.

723
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,600
Speaker 1: I wound up sending them my highlight type Robert Morris.

724
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,440
Speaker 1: I wound up sending them my highlight type. They try

725
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: to offer me, but I was like, no, I ain't

726
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 1: going up north, but no football from the down south

727
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 1: player trying to play in the heat. It's working at exactly.

728
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,320
Speaker 1: It worked out fine. So I wound up choosing West Georgia. Man.

729
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,920
Speaker 1: And I mean I can remember them moving me to

730
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 1: linebacker and it was like literally the most like nerve

731
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 1: wrecking thing I've ever experienced because I was literally only

732
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:36,200
Speaker 1: two hundred pounds. I was like, I cannot play linebacker

733
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 1: at two henty pounds you were. You were the priest

734
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: amongst all the eighteen wheelers in something exactly like it

735
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 1: was this linebacker at two hy pounds. You can run

736
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 1: and yeah, but that's but that's where the game is

737
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 1: going now, is it not. I mean, guys don't have

738
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 1: to be two hundred and fifty five, but they don't

739
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 1: have to be the size of b Mac anymore to

740
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 1: step in and do great things. Why do you think

741
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 1: that is? I think it's you gotta tend to more

742
00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 1: the offense and the officers are going more like more

743
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 1: speedier and kind of being more passed pros like they

744
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:04,720
Speaker 1: want to they want to pass the ball, So you

745
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 1: gotta have guys that can compete with it and kind

746
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 1: of be more athletic and hang with cover and linebacker

747
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:11,279
Speaker 1: and cover running backs and cover tight ends were really

748
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:15,440
Speaker 1: athletic nowadays. So you played high school ball in Atlanta,

749
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 1: And I asked a couple of other guys about this,

750
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 1: But DeShawn Watson in high school before he did what

751
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 1: he did at Clemson, what was his reputation like in

752
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 1: the state of Georgia. Man, you just hear about those guys.

753
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 1: I can remember just like growing up like and I

754
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:30,279
Speaker 1: was a little I think I was a little bit

755
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 1: older than the shun coming out, and I would hear

756
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,440
Speaker 1: about like this young kid like going off up. I

757
00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 1: was like, okay, okay, okay. And it's just so many athletes,

758
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 1: so you hear so many different names. It's just like, yeah,

759
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 1: you start to realize, like dang, he was enjoying with

760
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 1: us too, So it's crazy. Man got a lot of

761
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:46,479
Speaker 1: talent down there. You ready first to read the oars.

762
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:50,120
Speaker 1: Yea very simple an NBA fan, basketball fan at all.

763
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:52,880
Speaker 1: I'm a Lebron fan. Put it away. We've heard that

764
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,160
Speaker 1: a couple of times. As got his own Lebron nation.

765
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 1: All right, so we'll start with this one. You can

766
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:03,920
Speaker 1: relive one athlete life from beginning the present day, either

767
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:08,920
Speaker 1: Lebron or Michael Lebron all day. Okay, a couple of guys,

768
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 1: the first one I said Lebron. We even had Lebron

769
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:14,960
Speaker 1: guys that have said Michael. Uh So, okay, film is

770
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:20,240
Speaker 1: being made of your life. Who plays you? Either Chadwick Boseman,

771
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:27,760
Speaker 1: Michael b Jordan or Channing Tatum. And he played linebacker

772
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:31,440
Speaker 1: high school. Apparent he did? Uh Okay, I don't know

773
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:33,840
Speaker 1: if you're into boxing at all, but I would imagine,

774
00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:35,799
Speaker 1: you know these names, you can step into the ring

775
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:40,239
Speaker 1: against one of these two fighters in their primes, either

776
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 1: Muhammad Ali or Mike Tyson Muhamad alike gonna knock you out.

777
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 1: Smart Mamie would embarrass you though. Yeah, but he'll dancing

778
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 1: around for a little bit, you know, not being able

779
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 1: to speak anymore. That's true. Thanks a lot for being

780
00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,359
Speaker 1: with us, Terrell Adams joining us on tech since all

781
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,239
Speaker 1: Access and Johnny that's the kind of guy you root for.

782
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 1: Special teams player, trying to stick around with this squad.

783
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 1: He's been with a lot of squads in the NFL,

784
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:10,200
Speaker 1: but he's making a living. I mean, he's doing it.

785
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:11,880
Speaker 1: You just want to do it in one place if

786
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,800
Speaker 1: you possibly can't. Yeah, And I mean how many different

787
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,239
Speaker 1: stops has he had? You root for a guy like that.

788
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:21,719
Speaker 1: And it's funny when when he was waived because they

789
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:23,759
Speaker 1: had some injuries and they had to try and work

790
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:25,759
Speaker 1: some things around. And that's one of the things I

791
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:29,239
Speaker 1: think that we talk about it, but I don't think

792
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 1: it's known a lot that when you're you know, number

793
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 1: forty nine, fifty fifty one, fifty two, fifty three man

794
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:39,319
Speaker 1: roster boy. Every single week, you're looking at transactions and

795
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 1: not only what happens at your position, what happens to

796
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:43,400
Speaker 1: other positions. Because you look at other positions and go,

797
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:46,399
Speaker 1: wait a second, we're gonna need a tight end, So

798
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,839
Speaker 1: you got to pull from a different position. Man, Look,

799
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:50,479
Speaker 1: we gotta waive, you've done a great job. We gotta

800
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,279
Speaker 1: wave because we need a tight end. And so that's

801
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,200
Speaker 1: what happened throughout. But then he ended up coming back.

802
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 1: So I remember seeing him back in the locker room

803
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 1: and we had not seen the trans action yet, and

804
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 1: I was like, hey, Tarrol Adams is back. This is good.

805
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:04,239
Speaker 1: You know, he's back with us. And so I was

806
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 1: glad to see him back in the locker room. But

807
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 1: I there's a part of me that hates the life

808
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,759
Speaker 1: that those guys have to lead. But you could tell

809
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,279
Speaker 1: he's got such a good spirit about it that he's

810
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:16,360
Speaker 1: he's willing to do anything to try and stick and

811
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:19,400
Speaker 1: stick for a while. So I'll be rooting for that

812
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 1: guy in training camp and wherever he goes, because he

813
00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:23,719
Speaker 1: was he was fun to talk to. He's got a

814
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 1: really good grasp on things, and he plays really good music.

815
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:29,839
Speaker 1: In the locker room. Yeah, he makes good suggestions. I mean,

816
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 1: if DJ Reader and Brandon Done think he does a

817
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 1: good job, that's thumbs up. That's that's a high endorsement

818
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:37,360
Speaker 1: right there. And as far as these guys who have

819
00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 1: to bounce around, look, you're a young man, you're I mean,

820
00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 1: there are guys who would dream about having that opportunity

821
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:44,880
Speaker 1: that these players get. So good for them trying to

822
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 1: make the most of it all. A couple of things

823
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:51,480
Speaker 1: here around the league. So Colin Calhert had his obj's

824
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,719
Speaker 1: top ten career moments list. Did you see this one?

825
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 1: And it was all the all the stuff about the

826
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,359
Speaker 1: kicking net, you know, the one handed catch was falling there,

827
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 1: that's a boat, you know, all this stuff, and it

828
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:03,640
Speaker 1: was kind of taking shots at him and Baker Mayfield

829
00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,320
Speaker 1: has been going back and forth with Calherd and everything,

830
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 1: and it led me to believe this is show meeting here.

831
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:10,319
Speaker 1: I think next week we got to do a show

832
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 1: meeting on teams and you know ncub A tournament terms,

833
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 1: we talk about bubble teams, and we also talk about

834
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 1: bubble teams in the NFL when it comes playoff time,

835
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:21,160
Speaker 1: they're a bubble team and they're on the b or

836
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,319
Speaker 1: bubble players when you're coming to the end of the roster,

837
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,319
Speaker 1: cuts at the end of the preseason and all of that.

838
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:28,479
Speaker 1: But I think bubble when you talk about financial terms.

839
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,360
Speaker 1: It is also interesting. I want to do a show

840
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:32,720
Speaker 1: where we talk about are you bullish on this team?

841
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 1: Is this team a bubble? To me, the Browns are

842
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 1: a bubble and that bubble could burst. The Browns have

843
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,960
Speaker 1: bubble written all over them, meaning it's a big inflated

844
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:44,879
Speaker 1: value thing on the Browns right now. Yeah, they got

845
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,440
Speaker 1: a lot of interesting pieces here, but show me on

846
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:52,239
Speaker 1: the field. Okay, you're still the Cleveland Browns. I mean,

847
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:54,319
Speaker 1: you gotta find a way. And look, I know that

848
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 1: it's it's more than about the uniform. It's who's in

849
00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 1: the uniform. But I'm still looking at who's in the

850
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,000
Speaker 1: uniform and I still have to see it flesh out

851
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: on the field. And Mayfield as good as he was

852
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 1: last year? All right, this is year two. What did

853
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 1: we say about Watson after year one? Everybody gets the film,

854
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:11,520
Speaker 1: everybody looks, everybody sees what you do offensively, Kitchens is

855
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 1: still there. He was the offensive guy eventually after Haley

856
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,799
Speaker 1: was you know, shown the door, so to speak, so

857
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:18,759
Speaker 1: I want to see it happen on the field. I

858
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 1: think there are some bubble teams out there in the

859
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:24,120
Speaker 1: league who are overinflated. The bubble will burst. I hope

860
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:26,759
Speaker 1: there's one in the AFC South. Yeah, we have some

861
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,200
Speaker 1: most likely bubble team in the FC South. Some people

862
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,120
Speaker 1: might say it's the Texans, but I don't think so

863
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:33,319
Speaker 1: because I think there's a lot of strength here that

864
00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 1: people overlook, you know, they overlook Watton Watson and the

865
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 1: nucleus of this team on both sides of the football.

866
00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:43,719
Speaker 1: I mean, I admit that the Colts look after what

867
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 1: they did here in the postseason and how they looked

868
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 1: last year overall late Okay, I get it. I get

869
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 1: that they would be the favorite of the conference in

870
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,440
Speaker 1: the division from the outside looking in. But maybe it's

871
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,040
Speaker 1: the Titans. I don't think it's the Jags. We'll see.

872
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,360
Speaker 1: I would think the team if the bubble were going

873
00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:00,480
Speaker 1: to burst, it would be the Colts because I think

874
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:04,200
Speaker 1: there is hype upon hype right upon. That's a good point.

875
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:07,719
Speaker 1: Nobody's really hyping the Texans. Nobody are hyping the Colts. Yeah,

876
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:09,560
Speaker 1: and the Texans have won the division three the last

877
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 1: four years. When's the last time the Colts won the division?

878
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:15,200
Speaker 1: The Colts won the division? Well, the Colts won the

879
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:19,839
Speaker 1: division in the year the Texans, uh the seven, Yeah,

880
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,279
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen, that's the last time. That's the last time

881
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 1: the Colts won a division was in twenty fourteen. So

882
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 1: because the Jags won in the four and twelve year

883
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:29,640
Speaker 1: of twenty seven, it's so it's been a while for

884
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:31,840
Speaker 1: the Colts and they got in last year with a

885
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 1: wild cards. So but oh, look at the draft, look

886
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 1: at what they've done. I mean, they obviously handled us

887
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,319
Speaker 1: in the playoff game. And I will never I will

888
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:44,839
Speaker 1: never look bad on the Colts for that, and I

889
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,879
Speaker 1: would never look bad on the Colts in anyway, shape

890
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 1: or form. But the Colts came in here and kicked

891
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:51,040
Speaker 1: their butt. I mean, it's pretty simple. They kicked their

892
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 1: butt that day. But you know, now there's a lot

893
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 1: of hype around here. Now, there's expectation, what are you

894
00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:59,240
Speaker 1: gonna do to that end. We've seen Frank Reich's offense,

895
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:02,839
Speaker 1: we see Darius Leonard down now they've added some very

896
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 1: athletic pieces. How those pieces all come together, and then

897
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:08,319
Speaker 1: whether you stay healthy or not. Andrew Luck goes down

898
00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:09,920
Speaker 1: with the sprained ankle and that bothers him for a

899
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,480
Speaker 1: while and can't push off the foot. How does that

900
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 1: change that offense about t Y Hilton if he continues

901
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,920
Speaker 1: to play with a bad ankle throughout the year, he

902
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:20,360
Speaker 1: gets banged up, he asked to miss games. Keep talking.

903
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:24,080
Speaker 1: I mean, look, those are things where you don't wish

904
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:28,040
Speaker 1: on anybody, but if they happen, I mean, look at

905
00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 1: the Jags last year. They had to deal with a

906
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:32,800
Speaker 1: lot of different injuries. But the bubble there, bubble burst.

907
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:34,800
Speaker 1: Remember last year at this time, the Jags are the

908
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,240
Speaker 1: top five team in the league. They had everything. Oh

909
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 1: as long as Blake keeps it together. Well guess what

910
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:42,440
Speaker 1: didn't happen? He didn't keep it together. Nope. All right,

911
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 1: thanks a lot, Johnny Mark, thank you. That's gonna do

912
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:46,440
