They're not really cute 23 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: tips right that go up your nose? Okay. So it's 24 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 1: interesting because my wife and I had this conversation last night. 25 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,039 Speaker 1: She was asking me about the various testing and she 26 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 1: was asking me, well, well, how came you're testing? Why 27 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: are you doing this? Because I went in last Monday 28 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 1: and I they did a test and it was a swab, 29 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 1: but it was not like a cute tips swab. It 30 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: was like a little like thin thin, thin, thin, thin 31 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: tube and it was easy. Then got called to go 32 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 1: in for testing on Sunday and when in I did 33 00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: two tests that one was AP test that was a 34 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 1: little bit deeper with the swab, and then I did 35 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: the antibody's blood test. And then today they went in 36 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: they did both nostrils and told me that it was 37 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 1: the I think it's called the PCR test that I 38 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: did today. So I've done three tests in seven days 39 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:22,919 Speaker 1: and all three the three tests are different, and which 40 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, I know a lot of people 41 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: are like they hear testing, and of course, as with 42 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: anything you hear testing, you're like, oh you swab, you 43 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: don't right, that's the test, right, Well, yes, and then 44 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 1: there are different kinds of tests. There are more like 45 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 1: the first test that we took a month last Monday 46 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,079 Speaker 1: was not as accurate, I guess as the PCR test. 47 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,119 Speaker 1: So we're taking that. And that was obviously pointed out 48 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: in some of the literature that came from the league 49 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: and NFLPA today, and we'll get to that in a 50 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: little bit. But Mark, it was just I know a 51 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: lot of people. You mentioned this on Friday, and I 52 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 1: wish the people could see where I just gotta see 53 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: where we work, like down at the service level. I 54 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: was at the service level today because I had to 55 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:10,519 Speaker 1: go drop off the surface. So my man Tommy over 56 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: in our video productions department for one of our films, 57 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: ops guys could put some games and some plays on 58 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 1: my surface. So I was in the service level and 59 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my god, it looked awesome. Yeah, but 60 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: I'm telling you it's so funny, Mark, I'm gonna I'm 61 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: gonna vent just a little bit, if you don't mind. 62 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: I yesterday, when the players throughout the league with the 63 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: hashtag we want to play, in a coordinated tweet effort 64 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: put out there all their different whatever they were saying, 65 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: and everybody had a different everybody had a different thought. 66 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: But at the very end was it hashtag we want 67 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: to play. So I saw so many people yesterday on 68 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: Twitter the NFL had all this time to get its 69 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: act together, and look what they're doing. They can't get 70 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: it together. And they were starting to compare the NFL 71 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: to Major League Baseball. And I can't tell you how 72 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: many people I even heard on the radio today they 73 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: had this amount of time to get ready. Well, I'm 74 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: telling you I don't know about the thirty one other teams, 75 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: but I can promise you that the one team in 76 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: your town has spent these last how many ever months 77 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: getting that place where we live and RG Stadium ready 78 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 1: to play, to move forward into a whole other stratosphere. 79 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: Due to COVID nineteen, we mark there. I went to 80 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: go upstairs to drop my surface off and I got 81 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,559 Speaker 1: over to where we usually do our key card, and 82 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: I flashed keycard, I got green, I went to go 83 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 1: in the door open. I'm like, what the heck. Luckily 84 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: Kevin Krakovic, who has had all kinds of fun this 85 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: the last four months negotiating the contracts, Larry tunsil and 86 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: I'm sure he's working on de Shaan Watson as we speak, 87 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: says John Move and I see him look up. I'm like, 88 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 1: what are you doing, Kevin? And the door opened, I'm like, 89 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: wait what Yeah, so Mark, I didn't touch anything. I 90 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,159 Speaker 1: didn't touch anything. And I went through like four different doors. 91 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: I reckon facial recognition. You wave your hand and the 92 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 1: door closes. You don't even I didn't touch anything. It 93 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: was it was unbelievable. The people Ray Claredge was hired 94 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:32,280 Speaker 1: to handle the facilities under COVID. It's unbelievable. It's it's incredible. 95 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 1: So all those people saying when the NFL didn't, man, 96 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: you can absolutely smooched my backside, because they have been 97 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: for four months getting their buildings ready to go every 98 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,359 Speaker 1: single day. And yes, the NFL and the NFLPA have 99 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: some things to still work out, but my god, to 100 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: come up with everything in those four months with a 101 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: completely moving target the entire way, and then because the 102 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: players start meeting about it, everybody, oh this must mean this. 103 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: That's why I get so frustrated sometimes with our well 104 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 1: just jump on it, just well this has got to 105 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: be true. Well, no, it's not and it's clear when 106 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 1: the NFL and the NFLPA can come to agreement on 107 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: certain things that came out today, those things weren't Those 108 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: things weren't worked on the last twenty four hours. Those 109 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 1: things have been worked on for months. So I sorry 110 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: to invent it early in the show, Mark, but the 111 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 1: NFL and the NFLPA had been working for a while. 112 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 1: And I guarantee the teams and I saw the events today, 113 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 1: the teams being ready, especially our team, being ready for 114 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: when these rookies and these players were about to show up. Yeah, 115 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,359 Speaker 1: I think that you know, the players took it public 116 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 1: and this is it's sort of like a mini CBA 117 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: that you have to come up with just to get 118 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: through this season, right because their financial implications that they 119 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: did not get into. And that's good because people, what 120 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: is it always about with professional sports? It's most of 121 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,559 Speaker 1: all and look, safety is huge this year, of course, 122 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,359 Speaker 1: but it's money. People get paid for their services to 123 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 1: play this game that we all love to watch, and 124 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: they have to agree to how things are going to go, 125 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: not just now but in the future because it has 126 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 1: cap ramifications. The loss of revenue this year, playing without 127 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: fans or with very few or whatever it turns out 128 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: to be. And by the way, I have some thoughts 129 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: on that, some things I've seen throughout the weekend, and 130 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 1: I know baseball's taking off now, so there's a lot 131 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 1: of things to talk about. But I did notice, of course, 132 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: how could you not that they took it public, and 133 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: your right, I know that in our building. Look, I've 134 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: been involved, not involved in doing it, but I've been 135 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: involved in some of the conversations where the information was 136 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: delivered to us in business oops for the first time. 137 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: And I was thinking, geez, they've done a lot of stuff. Man, 138 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: They've done a lot of stuff. Just to your point 139 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: about the facial recognition stuff and everything else. I mean, 140 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: this is really going to help, not just with COVID, 141 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: but think about less fluid, less common colds, which you look, 142 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: you can play football with the common cold, but everything 143 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: stinks when you have a cold. You know, it's just 144 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 1: not the same. It's just so every little illness other 145 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 1: than COVID is gonna help. It's going to be taking 146 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: care of or massively reduced because of the precautions they're taking. 147 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: But the most important thing is COVID, and we'll see 148 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,679 Speaker 1: where it goes from here, and Johnny, my little glimmer 149 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: of good news continues here. If you look at the 150 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: TMC dot edu website, the Texas Medical Center, you see 151 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: that hospitalizations are kind of flattening out. We're kind of 152 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 1: coming down the other side of the mountain with hospitalizations, 153 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 1: not positives, but hospitalizations, which is a huge stat in 154 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: this whole thing. Got to get that thing flattened out. 155 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: It's definitely flatt it's coming down, and it's got to 156 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 1: continue to come down. Now. As I say, this could 157 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 1: spike back up tomorrow, but let's just hope for the 158 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: best here because that's a big part of this as 159 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 1: well in Houston. I know the valley's really hurting in 160 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: other parts of the country, but we got to take 161 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 1: what we can get right now. Yeah, no doubt. And 162 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: you you've skied before, so you you know how you 163 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: know how the mountains are. There's there's I think they're 164 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: green is the the very beginners. Then there's blues, then 165 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 1: there's black diamonds, then there's double black diamonds. We need 166 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 1: that thing to be a double black diamond like as 167 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: steep as that thing can just just fall off the nap. 168 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,319 Speaker 1: We don't need that like green you know, bunny slope. 169 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 1: We need to slope like a double black diamond, which 170 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: is like all the way down in a in a hurry. 171 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 1: But you're right, it was. It was good to see 172 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: you show that during a meeting today, and um, it 173 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 1: was good. It was good to see that people keep 174 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:42,079 Speaker 1: wearing just keep wearing masks, keep doing I mean, heck, 175 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: President even went today and says patriotic to wear a mask. 176 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: So there you go. Now, if you're wondering what Mark 177 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: and I are referring to, this came from Tom Pellisaro, 178 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 1: and I think all of the NFL insiders have sort 179 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 1: of been putting this out there, but he was the 180 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: first one that really put this. Put this out here 181 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 1: in any time that you can hear insert name of 182 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 1: league and insert players association of said players league and 183 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 1: the word agree. That's always a good tweet. That's always 184 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: a good thing. Tom Pelisara tweeted this a couple hours ago. 185 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 1: He said the NFL and the nfl PA agreed to 186 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: daily COVID nineteen testing for the first two weeks of camp, 187 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: after which they'll look at positivity rates if the rate 188 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: drops below five percent for players and tier one slash 189 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: Tier two individuals, of which Tier two yours truly is 190 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 1: part of. They'll move to every other day important deal 191 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:50,839 Speaker 1: as talks continue on other issues. He continued, players will 192 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 1: need multiple negative tests before they're allowed to be in 193 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 1: the building for physicals or team activities. That's a lesson 194 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: the NFL's taken from other pro leagues. That's a good one, 195 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: and that's the lesson, take it slow. NFL Chief Medical 196 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 1: Officer doctor Allen Sills says test results are expected within 197 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: twenty four hours. That is a it's a mouthful Mapela 198 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: Saro finished with why is this particular important? It's the 199 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,960 Speaker 1: seventh of seven major health and safety protocols that needed 200 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:28,479 Speaker 1: to be completed. Other issues still being negotiated, including economics, 201 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 1: but obviously the player's health. That's a huge step forward 202 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: as the players report to camp. It's the yes thing, 203 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: Johnny right, We talked about it like yes, sales, call salesman, 204 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 1: you get them. They're called tie down questions. According to 205 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 1: Tom Hopkins, who wrote How to Master the Art of Selling, 206 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: the greatest book on sales ever written. I highly recommend 207 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 1: it to anybody in the industry. But he talks about 208 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: tie down questions like ask stuff you can get yeses too, Yes, yes, yes. 209 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: These are very important things. Obviously, the big one is 210 00:11:55,920 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: coming the revenue. How do you handle this financially? That's coming. 211 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: So we'll see because they'll look how to deal with 212 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 1: somebody who has COVID, What to do about the roster 213 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 1: with somebody who's COVID. What about practice squad availability, game 214 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:15,559 Speaker 1: day access to practice squad players. It's a must. Everybody 215 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: agrees on that. I would hope. So that stuff you 216 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 1: can get yes is too. You got to get the 217 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: big yes between these two, which is what to do 218 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: about the money, and then we can have some football 219 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: to talk about. It's gonna be fun. You're gonna have 220 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: training camp. You keep. Now here's the other thing. This 221 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 1: is doctor VanderMeer talking and I don't know what they're 222 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: telling the players about their off hours. But when they're 223 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: in the building, everything is so well distanced. Isn't on 224 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 1: the field? I get it. But they're tested all the time. 225 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 1: So if they were in a bubble, you'd feel pretty 226 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: good about nobody getting it or very few. However, they 227 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 1: leave the building, what happens, Where are they going and 228 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: what are they told to do? I don't. I haven't 229 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,839 Speaker 1: read too much information on this. Have you about what 230 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:04,719 Speaker 1: the players, what coaches, even they're not staying at the facility. 231 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: What are you told you can and cannot do? I 232 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: mean to me, doctor VanderMeer would say, go home. You 233 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 1: know this, We just gotta suck it up and go 234 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: home and not go out for a few months here 235 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: and have a football season. Yeah. I know that. Other 236 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 1: people in your household, whoever, you know, if you hire 237 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,319 Speaker 1: a shift many of them do, they'll you know, be 238 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: somewhere else. Your wife might have to go to the store. 239 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,599 Speaker 1: You have kids. Look, they're probably not gonna go to 240 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: school for a while. They might some are, so you 241 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 1: have to handle that however you see fit and it's 242 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 1: never gonna be perfect. But the one thing you can 243 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 1: do is make sure the individual player or coach involved 244 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 1: does not go into public, does not go to the 245 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 1: store and in big crowds there or whatever. I think 246 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 1: that's really important. That's just me saying it my personal opinion. Agreed, 247 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 1: and I think the I don't want to say the 248 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: biggest issue because there's so many issues, But to that end, 249 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 1: it's not just the player, it's the people that are 250 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:02,199 Speaker 1: going to be closer to that particular player, whether it's 251 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 1: significant other, whether it's family members, whatever, you know, whoever 252 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: it is. That's easy, exactly exactly, and that's and that's 253 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 1: kind of that's kind of my point is you can 254 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: shield these guys, and you can do as much as 255 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: humanly possible to shield guys like I think about for me, 256 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: I go, I go to the grocery store. I go 257 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 1: to Kroger and and or HB sometimes in the same day, 258 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: depending on what they have, um, and what my family wants. 259 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: I see my kids and my wife and some things. 260 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 1: That's it. I go for a run and that's that's it. Mark, 261 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: that's it. Now. I'm you know, I'm forty eight. I'm 262 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: not a multi millionaire. I'm not playing in the NFL 263 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: with all the money that's that's there, um, but that 264 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: that's me. So it's easy easy for me from that 265 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 1: perspective for these guys that have got a number of 266 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: people around you talk about chefs, nutritionists, agents, I mean, 267 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: all the various people that can be around those particular 268 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 1: people are the ones that are gonna have to heed 269 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 1: that call as well. And that's that's gonna be. It's 270 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: gonna be difficult to do it across the board. But 271 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: if players are massed up, if they're doing as much 272 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: as they possibly can to stay away from those big crowds, 273 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: then there's okay. Let's let's see the bubble. Obviously has 274 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: worked in the NBA. They had zero test comeback positive 275 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: from the three hundred something tests said they have done. 276 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: But like you said, we saw it on TMC. The 277 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: TMC website started to come down a little bit. Maybe 278 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: we're just continuing to move in a positive direction. Like 279 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 1: I said, the President is tweeting about being patriotic and 280 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 1: wearing a mask. This is one that we didn't talk about. Mark. 281 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: We talked about it our meeting today, but it feels 282 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: like it's almost old news. But there's I don't think now. 283 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: I could be wrong. I have searched all over today 284 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: looking for absolute confirmation on this. I don't even know 285 00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 1: if there's confirmation on the NFL going from four games 286 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 1: down to two. But then I thought I saw Pella 287 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: sorrow tweet at some point. Couldn't somebody else that the 288 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: NFL will move to one preseason game? Yeah? Week three? 289 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: Week three, and there's no confirmation on that. You're right, 290 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: it's still a four game schedule officially, but the report 291 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 1: earlier weeks ago was down to two and now it's 292 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: down to one reportedly, And honestly, I am not holding 293 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 1: anything back here, like I would love to know if 294 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 1: this is true, because you know, we're responsible for our 295 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 1: own preseason of course, PELA casts, never mind radio. You know, 296 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: we feel like we could do radio on two Dixie 297 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: cups and a string if we need to, you know, 298 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 1: want to. But with TV it's a little bit of 299 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 1: a different animal. It's got to be done with a 300 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: whole lot of people and a big truck and a 301 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: lot of experts. Yeah, that's obviously that part of it 302 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 1: is makes it that ultra difficult. But in a regular preseason, 303 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: regular preseason, we've had months of time to prepare. We 304 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 1: know where the games are gonna you can start preparing. 305 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: Then as soon as the schedule was put out, I 306 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 1: think all of us sort of thought, are we gonna 307 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 1: see all four of these games? Interesting? I saw and 308 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: I can't remember who was that tweeted about this, and 309 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,440 Speaker 1: this is gonna be interesting because even if it's one 310 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: preseason game, take that one preseason game, We're gonna do 311 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: some over unders in the next segment, and I would 312 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: say the overunder of plays in those games by Deshaun Watson, 313 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 1: JJ Watt, etc. It might be at zero. I don't know. 314 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:32,639 Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna do a whole heck of 315 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 1: a lot in that one preseason game. Anyways, maybe they 316 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: do because they don't have the joint practices. Maybe they 317 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 1: need to see it at game speed. But you're not 318 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 1: talking about a rookie. You're not talking about rookies for 319 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 1: the most part. But and I can't remember who I 320 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 1: saw tweet this, and I thought this was pretty interesting 321 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: because it was the guy that was not a star 322 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: in the league, but he played for a while. And 323 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 1: he said, I'm telling you those preseason game, those preseason games, 324 00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 1: even if it's just one, are so valuable to the 325 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 1: last forty five the last half of a ninety man roster, 326 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 1: the last two thirds of a ninety man roster. He's like, 327 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:12,920 Speaker 1: just having one preseason game will help the quote unquote 328 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 1: rank and file of the league. Those guys need to 329 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:21,679 Speaker 1: play that preseason game. But well may the stars pushing 330 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 1: for none. So who knows, Maybe those guys end up playing, 331 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 1: and they probably would if you had only one preseason game. Especially, 332 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:29,960 Speaker 1: I don't think you'd see too much action from the 333 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,199 Speaker 1: starters at all. You know, it's maybe it'll be a 334 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,880 Speaker 1: gut feel, but man, do you really want to expose 335 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 1: them if you will, not just to injury, but to 336 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 1: COVID well infection, if you will, And then how about this. Look, 337 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,360 Speaker 1: maybe this wouldn't be popular with the owners, but if 338 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 1: you're not gonna go with the preseason at all, you 339 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 1: allow the roster to be that's a fifty three man roster, 340 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,360 Speaker 1: but you have a twenty man practice squad. You could 341 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 1: protect a bunch of guys that you wouldn't normally be 342 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: able to protect because of the numbers needed in case 343 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 1: there's infection, and because you didn't have a preseason, that 344 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 1: might be a way to go. Everyone always talks about 345 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 1: well in college, it don't happen. Well in college. The 346 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: starters can beat the living daylights out of the scout team, 347 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 1: you know, because you're not gonna need the scout team. Right, 348 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,119 Speaker 1: you've got unlimited numbers virtually. I know, you have eighty 349 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:22,680 Speaker 1: five scholarships and then you have a bunch of walk offs. 350 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: You have a hundred guys you could use tackling dummies. 351 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: They're crash test dummies. When you get down below, you know, 352 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:32,719 Speaker 1: sixty five seventy sixty five traveling college and the coaches 353 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: complain about it. I can only travel sixty five to 354 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: a game. Can you imagine NFL coaches, I get to 355 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 1: have sixty five guys? You know some NFL coaches that 356 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 1: wouldn't want sixty five guys. That's almost too many kind 357 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: to keep track upset and to keep happy, like no, 358 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:51,639 Speaker 1: no, no no, no. I do think that forty six is 359 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 1: a little low, especially when it comes offensive line combinations 360 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:59,120 Speaker 1: and things of that sort. But it's gonna be interesting 361 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: to see. If it is Week three and it stays 362 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 1: as scheduled, that would mean the Texans would go on 363 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:09,959 Speaker 1: the road to face the New Orleans Saints ye in 364 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: Week three. Going back to this scene of last year's 365 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 1: Week one crime of losing to the New Orleans Saints 366 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 1: and what NFL the NFL Network deemed the number three 367 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 1: game of all of last year at the regular season. 368 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 1: I was pretty yesterday, wasn't it. I know it was. 369 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: I couldn't bring myself to watch it. I couldn't do it. 370 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 1: I've already I've already. I've already gone down the rabbit 371 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,360 Speaker 1: hole of Texans Chiefs in the playoffs. I'm not going 372 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: down that rabbit hole, even though you know what, no 373 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: I think about I would like to go back and 374 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: watch that game because that regardless of the result, and 375 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: I know the defense tired out in the second half 376 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 1: a little bit, but man, that was one hell of 377 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 1: a ball game. Mark, that was one heck of an 378 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: All three regular season trips to the super Dome in 379 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: the history of the Texans, and there have only been 380 00:20:58,040 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: three of the regular season. It feels like we go 381 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 1: there lot because we do in the preseason. But oh, 382 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 1: three was a close game at the half. That was 383 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 1: one where Seth Paine got hurt out for the year. Eleven. 384 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: Was a nine point lead in the fourth quarter, but 385 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: Drew Brees and Darren Sprowls and the rest is history. 386 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 1: And then what happened last year with the late lead 387 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 1: you couldn't hang on to it. A thirteen second drive 388 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,119 Speaker 1: to take the lead. Unbelievable game and it deserves to 389 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 1: be highly ranked. A top three game of the regular 390 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 1: season last year. Yeah, no doubt. All right, we get back. 391 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 1: We got some over unders, I got some good ones 392 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 1: from Mark, He's gonna have to think through these, doesn't 393 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 1: have to do any math. I've done the math for him. 394 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: We'll do some over unders next.

The NFL offered the nfl 401 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: PA today to play zero preseason games this summer, Mark Schefter, just, 402 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 1: I mean, as we're talking about it, six Chefters tweeting, 403 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 1: NFL offered the NFL PA today to play zero preseason 404 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 1: games this summer. Okay, now now here you want to 405 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 1: you wanna know the cynical side of me. Cynical cynical 406 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: side of me says, okay, you know quid pro quote? Like, 407 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 1: is that still PC to say quid pro quote? Because 408 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 1: why would that be wrong? What? What would be wrong 409 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 1: with quid program? I don't know.

I didn't I 413 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 1: don't think so. I just I just want to make sure. 414 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,679 Speaker 1: But it feels like a little quid pro quo from 415 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,920 Speaker 1: the NFL. Okay saying yeah, yeah, we'll give you those 416 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 1: zero preseason games, but now what you're gonna give back 417 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 1: to me the money? Yeah, And that's that's where it's going. 418 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: So it'll be interesting to see what happens with that. Okay, Mark, 419 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:24,399 Speaker 1: you ready for some over unders Wait a second, the 420 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:29,200 Speaker 1: gifts on. Somebody replied the chapter with the gifts on 421 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 1: here the undrafted free agents and all these people tearing 422 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 1: up and stressing. I really feel they like, I can't 423 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 1: get in oh man. And you know, as far as 424 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: as far as the financial stuff goes with this, Johnny, 425 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,919 Speaker 1: I get Look, it's far be it for me to 426 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: get into other people's business. And I understand it from 427 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: both sides. I really do, and I did with baseball 428 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 1: as well. I mean, the players feel like, hey, I'm playing, 429 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 1: I'm doing the same job. I'm doing the same job 430 00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 1: I would be doing with seventy thousand fans, and Baseball's 431 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 1: case with fifteen to forty thousand fans or whatever it 432 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 1: would be. As I am with no fans, so why 433 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 1: aren't I getting the money? But the fans are part 434 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 1: of the money. That's that's what you have to understand, 435 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 1: you know. And that's like an employee who loses his 436 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 1: job at a restaurant because the restaurant doesn't have the business. 437 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,239 Speaker 1: You know, they lose their job, you know, and some 438 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 1: of them hang out. We went to a popular restaurant 439 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: last night. I'm not going to give him a plug 440 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: because you know, we have other partners and maybe I 441 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:31,880 Speaker 1: don't know whatever, but it was very sparse. There were 442 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: like three tables. They do a good to go business. 443 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 1: But I was telling Vanderkin, I said, do you understand 444 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 1: what's wrong or how this business model is? You know, 445 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 1: you might think they're doing well with the to go, 446 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 1: but they're just hanging in there. He said, why, I said, 447 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 1: I pointed to the bar. I said that, you know, 448 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 1: even if you have drinks to go, they'll Let's be honest, 449 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 1: come on, you don't have a packed restaurant with people imbibing, 450 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 1: and that's how you make money. So anyway, stop me. 451 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 1: Let's keep going. Uh well, let's keep going you have 452 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 1: more just treated today also offered an acclamation period from 453 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:09,119 Speaker 1: eighteen days I'm sorry, from seven days.

Wow. 457 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: You know, as I was kind of flipping through um 458 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 1: Schefter's tweet and saw some of the jeffs. Of course, 459 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:34,640 Speaker 1: of course he had to show. They had to show 460 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:39,639 Speaker 1: Will Smith, which is kind of interesting. Oh, Will Smith 461 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,679 Speaker 1: is gonna replace crying Jordan here after a while. I 462 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 1: think he has now. I don't know if it will 463 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 1: have the staying power of Jordan, which was good for 464 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 1: a couple of years. I think yeah, it's yeah to 465 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 1: a point where Jordan acknowledged it at Kobe's funeral, at 466 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 1: Kobe's wake, which is kind of amazing. But either way, 467 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:01,919 Speaker 1: the fact that as I was going through there, I 468 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: saw one tweet that says, wow, they seem to do 469 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,639 Speaker 1: way better than the Major League Baseball I don't know 470 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 1: if it's if it's better, but it feels as though 471 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 1: both sides. I mean, you're hearing from the Pelasars, the 472 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: Schefters and the Rappaports and those those groups and other 473 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,639 Speaker 1: than the players coordinated efforts yesterday to say hey, we 474 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 1: want to play and putting that out there that really 475 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:33,160 Speaker 1: was the only perceived source of contention at this point, 476 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 1: seemingly um. But they're moving ahead, and that's really I 477 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 1: guess all we could have asked for is for them 478 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: to to move ahead. Now, let's move it. We got it, 479 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: Oh you do. We're good. Okay, so let's do this. 480 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,879 Speaker 1: Mark I promised over Hunders.

Wait, can I say one 496 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:58,120 Speaker 1: other thing about the breaking news about reported the owners 497 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 1: offering zero preseason games and an eighteenth day ramp up. 498 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 1: So if you report on the twenty eighth, right, which 499 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: has been the day? Yeah, yeah, eighteen would take you 500 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,120 Speaker 1: all right, So the thirtieth for everybody else pretty much, right, 501 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:16,120 Speaker 1: So let's just say for the Texans eighteen everybody else, 502 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, So eighteen would take you to the fourteenth, 503 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,880 Speaker 1: fifteenth of August, right, yes, and that's the ramp up, 504 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:30,160 Speaker 1: so they would begin practice. Let's say, hypothetically, I don't 505 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 1: have this in front of me, but on the fifteenth, 506 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: that's a Saturday, start training camp, real practice. At that point, 507 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 1: Let's say you go two weeks, which is the normal 508 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 1: time you would take to get ready for your first 509 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 1: preseason game, right, Um, But in Collegeville, Johnny, you'd go 510 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 1: what three weeks, right at least, and then you'd have 511 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 1: game week, then you'd have game week. That kind of works, right, 512 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 1: because we're looking at m September tenth for the opener. 513 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,280 Speaker 1: So three weeks takes you to the fifth, you know, 514 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 1: the fourth or fifth you would have played that Thursday 515 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: preseason final game on September third. Uh So now you 516 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 1: get into a game week mode and you're playing on 517 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: a Thursday night, So you get in the game week 518 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 1: mode on the fourth Friday as a Monday. Don't get 519 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 1: me started. I know you love that. And then you 520 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: play September tenth at Kansas City. So it makes sense. 521 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 1: It gives you about a three full regular practice week 522 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: session or segment and then game week to get you 523 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: ready for your open or whoever you are. And we're 524 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 1: often running I hear commercials in the background. Is that 525 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 1: what happening? Yeah, we're hearing the commercials anything, you know. 526 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 1: We can like talk over the commercials and let's say 527 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: we played them. We played those commercials. Yeah, I mean, 528 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: I mean who with our commercials? I mean, who do 529 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: we who do we have to prop up? I'm sure 530 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,479 Speaker 1: that Keith songs and Papa John's would pop up at 531 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 1: some point. Oh, Papa John's would pop up. Um, what's 532 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 1: the what's the one? The Miller light one with the 533 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 1: voice guy that sounds a little like Chester Pits. I 534 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: keep thinking it's Chester. We hear that one all the time. 535 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 1: There are many others, and Drew Doherty does a bunch 536 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 1: of promo type stuff, you know, and of course you 537 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 1: have the Sports Radio six ten promo, which is very 538 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 1: often you know, a moment of high chinks on one 539 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 1: of those shows, Joanna, our producer, don't worry about the breaks, 540 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 1: We'll just go yeah, rock and roll.

Yep. Over Runners number one. 563 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 1: I've had I've been sitting on this one for a 564 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: little bit because I've been trying to think, Okay, what's 565 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 1: the one thing that I really want to see this 566 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 1: defense do in twenty twenty. More so than anything else 567 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: sacks and tackle for law me or whatever I wants, 568 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 1: even get heat in the quarterback, I would like to 569 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 1: see them generate turnovers over under. Turnovers generated now, not 570 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 1: forced fumbles that you don't come up with. I'm talking 571 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 1: about fumble recoveries and interceptions combined, So turnovers generated. I'm 572 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 1: put the over under at twenty five. You're talking about 573 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 1: takeaways here, takeaways turnovers generated slash takeaways over under numbers 574 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 1: twenty five, so you're talking about one and a half, 575 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: about one and a half a game. I think that's 576 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 1: a big number. Um, I'd love to see it. I'd 577 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 1: love to see it. I mean, I think the big 578 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 1: thing is where where are they coming from? I mean, 579 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna ask you this. All right, So you're 580 00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 1: gonna take the ball away twenty five times, you're gonna 581 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 1: have eight interceptions? Is that a reasonable number? Eight? Eight interceptions? Well, 582 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 1: you need more than that, but but you've had years 583 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 1: what all right, Well we're last year. The numbers, Johnny, 584 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 1: give them to me. Okay one second, don't get I'm 585 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 1: getting them pulling them up right now. They well, I 586 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 1: remember twenty fourteen. Twenty fourteen was that was kind of 587 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 1: a um, that was kind that was crazy. That was 588 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 1: one of those years where six or something like if 589 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 1: you were playing great in all the phases, you'd have 590 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 1: like that. That was like Saints. It wasn't as good 591 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: as the Saints in two thousand and nine. What was 592 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 1: that forty something? It was ridiculous. Yeah, Okay, so last year, 593 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 1: our turnover margin was zero. Right, so even had we 594 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 1: had oh that was those giveaways take aways. Here we go, 595 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: twelve interceptions we had last year, and we had ten 596 00:33:54,000 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 1: fumble recoveries, so we had twenty two turnovers giveaways, we 597 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 1: had twenty two takeaways. All right, So I said that wrong? Yeah, yeah, yeah, 598 00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:11,719 Speaker 1: that's right, that's right, that's right. Okay, twelve interceptions I 599 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 1: was low with. I was low with the picks. I mean, 600 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:17,399 Speaker 1: you got Robie, you got Justin Reid, who is gonna 601 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 1: have a Pro Bowl year, I think with a good 602 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 1: shoulder this time, staying healthy, I'd say pro Bowl campaign. 603 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 1: I can't guarantee anything here, but but a bid to go, 604 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:31,879 Speaker 1: and I would say that twelve is doable. As far 605 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 1: as the forced fumbles, well, your pass rush what on 606 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 1: a full year or full enough Whitney, Uh maybe you know, 607 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: let's see what you get from Bernard a Mena who 608 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 1: year two we talk about this edge of four returns. Uh, 609 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 1: it's his sophomore season, Rechard sophomore because he didn't play 610 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 1: last year. Uh. So I'm gonna I'm gonna say over, 611 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:53,359 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say they do it. I'm gonna say they 612 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 1: do it. I think he set the number at the 613 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 1: right spot, though. It makes it very vaguas friendly, like, oh, 614 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 1: it's right there. You Now, if you said thirty, I'd 615 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:03,319 Speaker 1: say no. If you said twenty, I'd say come on. 616 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 1: So yeah, twenty five I felt good about. Okay, here's 617 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:10,759 Speaker 1: your favorite number. Okay, your favorite number. It's the one 618 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 1: we talk every every offseason about what is the one mark? 619 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 1: One not you mark? What is the one record that 620 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 1: you want beaten every single year? Think of your quarterback 621 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 1: touchdown passes? Twenty nine is the team record. It has 622 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 1: to stop. We must surpass that this year. Okay, so 623 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 1: over under not team touchdown passes, but DeShawn Watson touchdown passes. 624 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:54,320 Speaker 1: The over under number is thirty two. Oh it's so close, 625 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: it's so right there. Look, I think I think it happens. 626 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:03,640 Speaker 1: I think it happens because rushing touchdowns, he's gonna have 627 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:07,359 Speaker 1: four or five minimal, right, He just, like I say, 628 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 1: he believes he can fly, and he loves to go 629 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,560 Speaker 1: for that pylon. He just loves that. He just he 630 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 1: wants the He's so competitive, he wants the end zone 631 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,319 Speaker 1: so badly and any which way he can get it. 632 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:23,320 Speaker 1: Are you gonna run? I mean you're gonna have to score, 633 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:26,839 Speaker 1: you know, any which way you can. Hide. Was good 634 00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 1: last year running the football with over a thousand. I 635 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 1: don't know if you're getting that from Johnson, but I 636 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,359 Speaker 1: think you know, even if you got eight hundred from 637 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 1: David Johnson and you got whatever you got from Duke 638 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:39,520 Speaker 1: Johnson running the ball, I think both of them, they're 639 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 1: receiving ability is really gonna be tremendous this year. So 640 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, yes, he surpasses thirty two tds. I 641 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,319 Speaker 1: think he gets up to thirty four thirty five this year, 642 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:53,279 Speaker 1: and that's a Texans franchise record. You know. When I was, 643 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:58,800 Speaker 1: I was, I thought was interesting in looking at last 644 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 1: year's quarterbacks and seeing how how little, the how few 645 00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 1: players through for over thirty touchdowns. You know, we had 646 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:18,120 Speaker 1: Patrick in twenty eighteen, he threw for fifty, right, I 647 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:21,359 Speaker 1: think it was fifty. Well last year, now I don't. 648 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: I'm I just had the team stats in front of 649 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:26,440 Speaker 1: because I last team page last year. The highest team 650 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 1: number was thirty seven. Then you had the that was 651 00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 1: the Ravens. The Ravens had the most passing touchdowns. Good god, 652 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 1: where they're good and then lost the takes. There were 653 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 1: only one, two, three, four, five, six seven. They're only 654 00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 1: seven teams that had thirty or more touchdown passes in 655 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. It feels like that is that a weird year? 656 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,240 Speaker 1: It just felt like that was a really low number 657 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,160 Speaker 1: because I started looking at what the other quarterbacks did. 658 00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:03,920 Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, even even um where's 659 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:07,319 Speaker 1: uh yeah, even the Chiefs had thirty. I mean, you know, 660 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:09,879 Speaker 1: Pat missed what three games? I think I think two 661 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 1: or three pays a team. Yeah, as a team. As 662 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 1: a team, the Chiefs had thirty touchdown passes. As a team, 663 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 1: they had thirty touchdown passes a team. Where's the year 664 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 1: before they had four hundred and seven touchdown passes? It 665 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 1: felt like felt like, yeah, it felt like they were 666 00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:29,280 Speaker 1: the year before Pat through for fifty, but you had 667 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 1: the Colts with thirty nine. This is twenty eighteen, thirty nine, 668 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:34,759 Speaker 1: thirty six, thirty six, thirty five through five through three 669 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 1: through thirty. I mean there were ten teams. It feels 670 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 1: like more teams are throwing it around last year or 671 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:44,359 Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen than they did last year. But it 672 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 1: just feels odd. It felt odd, but yet Deshaun Cruising 673 00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:50,239 Speaker 1: at the same pace at twenty six. So I'm with you. 674 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:53,240 Speaker 1: I feel like this is a year where they can 675 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:56,399 Speaker 1: they can definitely get over that number. Uh, definitely get 676 00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 1: to the thirty number. But I think they can get 677 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:04,240 Speaker 1: to they can get to the thirty, get to thirty 678 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:06,480 Speaker 1: three to beat that over under. I definitely think they 679 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 1: can definitely do that. Okay, last last time we did this, 680 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 1: I gave you Duke Johnson, David Johnson receiving or receptions. 681 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:22,960 Speaker 1: I think that's what I gave you. I gave you receptions. Yeah, 682 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:30,719 Speaker 1: now I'm giving you Duke and David Johnson's combined rushing yards. 683 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:38,800 Speaker 1: Combined rushing yards. So last year as an offense, the 684 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 1: Texans ran just have an idea what they ran for. 685 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:44,719 Speaker 1: They were number I think they were number nine in 686 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 1: the league. They ran for a total of two thousand 687 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 1: nine yards. Two thousand and nine we go, Carlos, I 688 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:55,359 Speaker 1: went over one thousand. You know, Sean had about four 689 00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:57,320 Speaker 1: hundred or so. I think Duke had about five hundred 690 00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,759 Speaker 1: and six hundred somewhere in there. Trying think who else 691 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:03,279 Speaker 1: would had rushes, well, Watson had. Watson actually had more 692 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 1: rushing yards by three than Duke Johnson. So you had 693 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:10,360 Speaker 1: four hundred apiece from them and change and you had 694 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:13,279 Speaker 1: and you had hives thousand, So I've got him at 695 00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:16,240 Speaker 1: the part of me. So the key there is Duke's 696 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 1: four hundred plus and Carlos thousand, because that's about for 697 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 1: over fourteen hundred. So I'm setting you over under this 698 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 1: year for Duke and David Johnson's combined rushing yards at 699 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 1: sixteen hundred, I think that's exactly well, at sixteen hundred, 700 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,960 Speaker 1: sixteen hundred. Wait, wait is Watson? So without Watson, Duke 701 00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:45,719 Speaker 1: and David David again last year? Oh okay, wait, wait 702 00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 1: a second though. What last year you had carloscover one thousand, 703 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 1: you had Duke over four hundred, fourteen hundred, you had 704 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 1: an offensive line that really was only together for about 705 00:40:57,160 --> 00:41:02,799 Speaker 1: six games. Yeah, so you're still going under. I'm still 706 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:06,120 Speaker 1: I'm going under sixteen yet fourteen hundred last year, all right, 707 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 1: that was nice, but don't forget hide still at four 708 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 1: point four per carry, Duke Johnson at four point nine. 709 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 1: So is Duke Johnson gonna get a ton more carries 710 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:18,319 Speaker 1: this year? You know he had only had eighty three 711 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 1: carries last year? Is is David Johnson carrying the ball 712 00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 1: more than two hundred forty five times, which was Carlos 713 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 1: Hide's number last year. It's possible. I think they'd like that. 714 00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:33,719 Speaker 1: I just don't see over sixteen hundred. Watson still gonna 715 00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 1: run the football even if you tell him not too. 716 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 1: He's gonna do it from time to time, and it's 717 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,160 Speaker 1: gonna be a factor for sure. And then the other 718 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:43,759 Speaker 1: thing is who's the third guy who? Last year there 719 00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:46,840 Speaker 1: really was no third guy. So how about this for 720 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:49,880 Speaker 1: a number from last year? It's just football is amazing. 721 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:54,239 Speaker 1: Taiwan Jones ran for forty yards all season long, right, yeah, 722 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,480 Speaker 1: forty yards, and wasn't it mostly because of the Yeah 723 00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:00,920 Speaker 1: Week seventeen? So he runs for forty yards and then 724 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:04,280 Speaker 1: a week later makes the biggest play in the history 725 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 1: of the franchise on a catch and run. All right, 726 00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 1: it's just one of those things. You know how many 727 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 1: catches he had the regular season one, It's just amazing. 728 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:19,360 Speaker 1: Happened yes week seventeen. Yeah, I said it. I said 729 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 1: it that. I think that week of radio because obviously 730 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:28,319 Speaker 1: the game ended as soon as Taiwan made that play, 731 00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:30,359 Speaker 1: as soon as kind of hit that fuel goal. But 732 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,919 Speaker 1: I said it when we talked about Taiwan and was like, look, 733 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:37,239 Speaker 1: I'm convinced that he got that opportunity in week seven. 734 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:39,840 Speaker 1: He got the opportunity against Buffalo because of what he 735 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 1: did in week seventeen. But to get to week seventeen, 736 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,840 Speaker 1: obviously he had had to shing together good practices and 737 00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:49,000 Speaker 1: things to show that he could step in and give 738 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 1: the Texans a little bit of something. In Man, when 739 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:53,799 Speaker 1: he ran the ball in that that Tennessee Titans game, 740 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 1: I was like, dang, he's got some juice. Like I 741 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,200 Speaker 1: always knew he had juice, Like I saw it back 742 00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:01,400 Speaker 1: when he was at Eastern Washington. We always knew he 743 00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:05,080 Speaker 1: had juice. But he ran physically. I mean, he ran 744 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:09,440 Speaker 1: hard against the Titans, and you thought, okay, I'm convinced 745 00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 1: he was on the field that day against the Bills 746 00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:16,399 Speaker 1: because he had made that impression week seventeen, Like, hey, man, 747 00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:18,800 Speaker 1: you know this gives us, this gives us a little 748 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:21,920 Speaker 1: different look. He's obviously got a little bit more twitched 749 00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 1: than Carlos does. This package we kind of like it's 750 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,279 Speaker 1: empty package. We like having a running back out there 751 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,600 Speaker 1: to see how they're gonna match up. It gives them 752 00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 1: a different. Look, they're maybe trying to match our personnel 753 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 1: groupings maybe a little differently. So maybe this throws a 754 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:38,719 Speaker 1: little a monkey wrench into plans. So him stepping up 755 00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 1: and having that game in week seventeen, but that was it. 756 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:46,200 Speaker 1: There was nobody else that ran a Paul except maybe 757 00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,759 Speaker 1: on a rever reverse. I don't think anybody else ran 758 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,759 Speaker 1: the ball, to be honest, other than those guys. That's 759 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:57,000 Speaker 1: but I think over sixteen hundred yards for Duke and 760 00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:00,360 Speaker 1: David is absolutely plausible. First of all, just flitter right 761 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 1: down the middle. It's eight hundred per guy. Okay, you're 762 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:11,719 Speaker 1: doubling Duke's output. I know, I know, But first of all, 763 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:14,760 Speaker 1: first of all, I think Duke is gonna get more touches. 764 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:17,920 Speaker 1: I think Duke's aid Dag him really good inside runner. 765 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 1: And I pointed out on a Texas three sixty on 766 00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:24,000 Speaker 1: Tellus Trader I in that Buffalo game. I think that 767 00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:27,360 Speaker 1: with all the speed to Texas have a receiver, I 768 00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 1: think teams are gonna be more apt to try and 769 00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:32,600 Speaker 1: match that match up with that. And what that's gonna 770 00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:35,520 Speaker 1: do is with Duke in the backfield, it's gonna give 771 00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 1: him more space. And Duke doesn't need He doesn't I mean, 772 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:41,840 Speaker 1: he doesn't need more space. He creates it himself a 773 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,280 Speaker 1: lot of times. Would you give him more space, He's 774 00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 1: gonna have an opportunity to break off some chunk runs 775 00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:50,320 Speaker 1: if you're never gonna have Buffalo game. That's what happened 776 00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:52,920 Speaker 1: at Buffalo game. We spread him out a little bit. 777 00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:56,200 Speaker 1: They they spread out a little bit. Then we ran 778 00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:59,399 Speaker 1: right at him and Duke kind of did a little 779 00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:02,120 Speaker 1: slow and ski I kind of jump cut up ten 780 00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:05,239 Speaker 1: yard run, got that drive going, And really he was 781 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,759 Speaker 1: the guy that kind of got everything going at Buffalo game. 782 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:10,640 Speaker 1: And I think with a second year under their belt, 783 00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 1: I think he goes up and I think he goes 784 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 1: up in yard is for sure. Now can you get 785 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 1: all the way to eight hundred? I don't know. I 786 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:19,879 Speaker 1: mean that's pretty rich. But I also think that David 787 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:23,360 Speaker 1: Johnson's gonna bounce back too. So how are they different, Johnny? 788 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 1: For the fans listening, Johnson and Johnson, Duke and David, 789 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:30,200 Speaker 1: how are they different? I'm looking at Duke last year 790 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:32,600 Speaker 1: with forty four catches. That's the high watermark for a 791 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:35,399 Speaker 1: back in the O'Brien era. Arian Foster had thirty eight 792 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 1: in twenty fourteen, does Duke hap forty four again? Or 793 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:42,319 Speaker 1: does David take those targets because Hide only had ten 794 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 1: catches last year. You're gonna throw the ball to David 795 00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:47,080 Speaker 1: Johnson if he's out there. So what do you think? 796 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:50,759 Speaker 1: How are they different? I think from a running standpoint, 797 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:54,200 Speaker 1: it's it's kind of easy. Now it's easy to see. 798 00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:58,120 Speaker 1: But obviously David's much bigger than Duke. Okay, we can 799 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:00,799 Speaker 1: see that. David's a one cut guy. He just sees one. 800 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:05,000 Speaker 1: He sees a hole, but he's see you whether there's 801 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:08,960 Speaker 1: some zone cutback stuff that they did with with Arizona 802 00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:13,000 Speaker 1: he did very very well with. He is a downhill guy. 803 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:15,919 Speaker 1: I don't he's not as twitchy as Duke. So Duke, 804 00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:18,680 Speaker 1: you can do any number of things because Duke's got 805 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:22,879 Speaker 1: really really good vision. Duke can see holes where there 806 00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:26,319 Speaker 1: aren't any, and if things are clogged up where he's 807 00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:28,120 Speaker 1: supposed to go, Like that run out was that I 808 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:31,600 Speaker 1: did that? I did tell straighter on it was all 809 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,360 Speaker 1: jammed up. He was supposed to on a power play 810 00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:37,759 Speaker 1: or basically it was like a split zone kind of 811 00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:40,400 Speaker 1: an insert ISO sort of thing, and he's supposed to 812 00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 1: kind of cut it back to the It was supposed 813 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:44,400 Speaker 1: to the whole supposed to be an A gap, but 814 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:46,319 Speaker 1: when he got to the A gap it was kind 815 00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 1: of clogged up. So he jump cuts out of the 816 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:51,719 Speaker 1: A gap on over to B gap. It's opened up 817 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:53,960 Speaker 1: because of the way the Bills are playing it. He 818 00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:57,800 Speaker 1: darts through, he kind of shakes the safety. It's ten yards. 819 00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 1: David is probably gonna put his head down through the 820 00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 1: A gap and try and power through, and they're gonna 821 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:07,640 Speaker 1: be times where when you do that sometimes things part. 822 00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:09,480 Speaker 1: You know, it just takes a second for those blocks 823 00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:12,239 Speaker 1: to develop and maybe he's able to shoot through there. 824 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 1: David's also very good with the cutback game, very good 825 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:19,360 Speaker 1: like Arian was. Not as good as Arian, but like 826 00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:22,239 Speaker 1: Arian was, Arian would start that zone one way, put 827 00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:24,040 Speaker 1: his foot in the ground and cut it right back 828 00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:27,360 Speaker 1: where the center was. And he's so big and strong 829 00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:30,880 Speaker 1: it's six two two thirty one that that backside defender 830 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,920 Speaker 1: can't really close. He can close a little bit, but 831 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:36,160 Speaker 1: you gotta respect to Sean and by the time you 832 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:38,719 Speaker 1: realize David's got the ball, you're not hitting him with 833 00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:40,879 Speaker 1: everything you got, and David just bounces off those guys 834 00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:42,560 Speaker 1: I saw that plenty of times. I saw it against 835 00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:45,320 Speaker 1: the Lions in particular, and watched the game against the Lions, 836 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:47,839 Speaker 1: and there were a number of runs he had where 837 00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:49,560 Speaker 1: he'd start that zone one way and he cut it 838 00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:52,480 Speaker 1: right back behind the center. Those backside guys and linebackers 839 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:54,959 Speaker 1: just got glancing shots and he ended up getting chunk 840 00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:58,800 Speaker 1: runs because of that. But I think with Dukes there's 841 00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:02,000 Speaker 1: there's a shift yes to him, so you can run, 842 00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:06,560 Speaker 1: you can run all your inside stuff with Duke, it's 843 00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:10,200 Speaker 1: just he may not end up going exactly where the 844 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,960 Speaker 1: hole is because he might see something completely on the 845 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:14,960 Speaker 1: back side and shoot through it because he's got the 846 00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:16,680 Speaker 1: quickness and the burst to be able to do that. 847 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:19,680 Speaker 1: So I think what they're going to be able to 848 00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:24,320 Speaker 1: do in combination, though, is run everything that Bill O'Brien 849 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:26,480 Speaker 1: and Tim Kelly have in the running arsenal. I remember 850 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,359 Speaker 1: the very first day that Bill Brown had the job. 851 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:32,799 Speaker 1: We're just kind of talking about things and obviously coming off, 852 00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:37,120 Speaker 1: you know, following Gary Kubiak, the big question was, okay 853 00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,319 Speaker 1: in the run game, Gary Kuback ran his zone scheme, 854 00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:42,480 Speaker 1: and the zone scheame is a big, huge part. I mean, 855 00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:44,440 Speaker 1: everything was kind of based on that, and I remember 856 00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:46,279 Speaker 1: him saying, I mean thought, John, we got we got 857 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:49,399 Speaker 1: gap scheme, we got zone scheme, we got blast scheme. 858 00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:51,560 Speaker 1: He had like four or five different run schemes and 859 00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:54,239 Speaker 1: you can see it. The Texans run all of that, 860 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:56,000 Speaker 1: and they're able to do that with the offensive line. 861 00:48:56,120 --> 00:48:58,640 Speaker 1: But I think they've got running backs that can do it. 862 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:02,080 Speaker 1: Whether it's zone, whether it's power, They've got running backs 863 00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:04,239 Speaker 1: that can actually, I think do both. I think Duke 864 00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:05,800 Speaker 1: can be good in the zone game. I think he 865 00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:07,239 Speaker 1: can be good in the power game. I think the 866 00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:10,359 Speaker 1: same for David, although I think David's probably better as 867 00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:13,400 Speaker 1: just as as a zone runner more so than a 868 00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:16,399 Speaker 1: power runner. Um. I think it's a which sounds weird 869 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,319 Speaker 1: because he's a bigger guy. But I just think the 870 00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:22,120 Speaker 1: way that that David sees that zone game, he's really 871 00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:24,200 Speaker 1: really good and it kind of like Carlos was. Carlos 872 00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:27,719 Speaker 1: was very good in the zone game, UM last year 873 00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 1: for us. So you're probably right under sixteen hundred yards 874 00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:35,440 Speaker 1: is probably right. Marha probably got to see things my way, 875 00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:38,839 Speaker 1: but we're gonna see I think we're I think these 876 00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:40,359 Speaker 1: two are going to run the ball a whole lot 877 00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:42,520 Speaker 1: better than people are thinking. Well, I think I think 878 00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:45,400 Speaker 1: a better. They could do that well, neither guy getting 879 00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:47,200 Speaker 1: too a thousand, They could still do that well. They 880 00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:50,560 Speaker 1: could catch the ball extremely well. Watson's very accurate. I 881 00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 1: think that's only going to continue, of course, And now 882 00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:56,360 Speaker 1: that he's got he's just got targets everywhere. You know, 883 00:49:56,400 --> 00:49:59,000 Speaker 1: they really weren't, like we said, using a hide as 884 00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:00,879 Speaker 1: much of a target any He was out there a lot. 885 00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:02,879 Speaker 1: We all know it. You know, you saw him coming 886 00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:04,880 Speaker 1: to the game. It was like, all right, there's a 887 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,040 Speaker 1: pretty good percentage chance of a run here. Now he 888 00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:09,000 Speaker 1: made the most of it. He averaged four point five 889 00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:11,200 Speaker 1: per Poppert. He had a thousand yards season and they 890 00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:14,280 Speaker 1: want a division. So everything worked out, so to speak. 891 00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:16,880 Speaker 1: But let's see what they can do here with the 892 00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:19,440 Speaker 1: creativity you were talking about with these two guys, and 893 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:23,000 Speaker 1: gotta get everybody to stay healthy. Yea, all right, I've 894 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:24,800 Speaker 1: got a few more over runners, Broun. I'm a saving 895 00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:26,959 Speaker 1: for next year. Mark. We're gonna go around the league 896 00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:33,160 Speaker 1: and we're gonna start with the retirements of Antonio Brown. Yeah, 897 00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:38,360 Speaker 1: do you that answers my question? And he answers my question. 898 00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:41,920 Speaker 1: Do you believe it, give it another couple of days. 899 00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:45,600 Speaker 1: You know. It's it's like boxers. You know, the cliche 900 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:49,520 Speaker 1: about boxers retiring and that they never do, and you know, 901 00:50:49,600 --> 00:50:53,520 Speaker 1: and I get boxers retiring a lot because it's such 902 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:56,520 Speaker 1: a hassle. I mean, you know, we follow sports where 903 00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:58,640 Speaker 1: you can play every week and if not every other 904 00:50:58,719 --> 00:51:02,279 Speaker 1: day or sometimes every day. Of course, boxing you can't 905 00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:04,160 Speaker 1: do that kind of thing. So after you get done 906 00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:06,360 Speaker 1: with a fight, it's gotta be like I am so dune, 907 00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:11,120 Speaker 1: I am done with this. The training, and anybody's ever 908 00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:13,480 Speaker 1: worked out with a heavy bag can relate to like 909 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:16,799 Speaker 1: this is awful, and these guys are going through it. 910 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:19,840 Speaker 1: You see those Rocky movies. That's why those workout scenes, 911 00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 1: those workout montages with like there's no easy way out, 912 00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:27,880 Speaker 1: Like those are no joke. I mean, you know what 913 00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:30,719 Speaker 1: I'm saying. I don't exactly just saying that was really good. 914 00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:35,440 Speaker 1: That's pretty good. Rocky four, by the way, when I 915 00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:37,360 Speaker 1: was when I was going through all those movies watching 916 00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:40,600 Speaker 1: them with vander Kidd, that's just like one gigantic music video. 917 00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:44,680 Speaker 1: But it's like they just like Rocky one best picture. 918 00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:48,320 Speaker 1: The original Rocky four had no chance of putting anything. 919 00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:53,520 Speaker 1: But it kind of like it wins the music maybe 920 00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:58,040 Speaker 1: MTV Awards maybe possibly because like there's one video after another, 921 00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:01,320 Speaker 1: you know, likes Trainmuster stallone, like like the song I 922 00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:03,200 Speaker 1: was just singing. I think part of it is he's 923 00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:05,839 Speaker 1: driving in the car. You know, you see him, He's 924 00:52:05,880 --> 00:52:08,640 Speaker 1: like looking at the road with that blank stare, like yeah, 925 00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:11,759 Speaker 1: there's no easy way. Yeah, there's no way. Do I 926 00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:15,040 Speaker 1: fight him or not? You know? And then I forgot 927 00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:19,120 Speaker 1: what they played when he's working out in Siberia. Oh 928 00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:23,920 Speaker 1: they had two umu who oh dang it? What was uh? Uh? 929 00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:27,200 Speaker 1: Bill Conti? Bill CONTI No, but but they didn't do 930 00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:29,680 Speaker 1: the Rocky theme when he's working out Siberia. I know, 931 00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 1: I know. But they came up with two different training montages. 932 00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:36,400 Speaker 1: They had one just called training montage and then they 933 00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:39,760 Speaker 1: had one called war. Trust me. I had the Rocky four. 934 00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:47,120 Speaker 1: Uh I had the Rocky four cassette tape that shows yeah. 935 00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:51,880 Speaker 1: Oh yeah so yeah those man Vince yeah, Vince Nicola. 936 00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:55,160 Speaker 1: He yeah, he came up with those two two training montages. 937 00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:57,720 Speaker 1: There are actually two different songs who do two different 938 00:52:57,719 --> 00:53:00,960 Speaker 1: training montages. UM one was a war and it together. 939 00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:04,160 Speaker 1: It's called training montage and we used to listen to 940 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:08,240 Speaker 1: that before all of our middle school basketball games, middle 941 00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:13,440 Speaker 1: school track. I mean, we love those. Those were fantastic. 942 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:17,600 Speaker 1: Those are the best they got. Oh yes, they used 943 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:20,680 Speaker 1: to get me so hyped. Oh let's skip ahead.

But I'm not gonna 950 00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:38,239 Speaker 1: let that get in the way. He said, Well, we're 951 00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:41,080 Speaker 1: radio guys. We invented the run on sentence. They have 952 00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:43,920 Speaker 1: no right to judge run on sentences. The whole show 953 00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:47,120 Speaker 1: was one run on sentence.
