21
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 1: Texans Radio Studio. I am John Harris, football analyst and

22
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: Saber reporter, less than forty eight hours away from heading

23
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: to Cleveland for the first time in six years now.

24
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,279
Speaker 1: We've seen the Browns twice and at SPAN in twenty

25
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 1: seventeen twenty eighteen, but both of those were at Energy Stadium.

26
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 1: We are now going to first Energy Field, I think

27
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: is what it's called to take on the Cleveland Browns now.

28
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,480
Speaker 1: I don't know about the Dog Pound and all that.

29
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 1: I know they've got limited fan involvement in the stadium,

30
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: so it'll be interesting to see and hopefully we all

31
00:01:55,760 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 1: stage dry. Hopefully we've had a rain. The only we

32
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: had four road games. The only game that we didn't

33
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 1: have rain it was Pittsburgh. Pittser was beautiful all day long.

34
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: But we've had rained every other stop. Not massive downpours,

35
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: but enough to keep you soaked for the rest of

36
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: the day. Jacksonville is close. I it was very close

37
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: in Jacksonville floor because I've lived there, I know the

38
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,639
Speaker 1: weather and it's kind of like here, you get this

39
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 1: shower for like five minutes and it done. In that case,

40
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: Jacksonville I was walking near the moat and I was

41
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: about to walk out of the East Club down the stairs,

42
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden it poured for like two

43
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 1: minutes and then stopped. And then it did a little

44
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: bit a little bit later and then stopped. Cleveland, it

45
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: looks like it might be gone before the game starts,

46
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: so hopefully that is the case. But natural surface, so

47
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 1: any sort of rain is gonna, I don't know, slow

48
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: up the team in some way, shape or form, but

49
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: it probably will help the Browns, given the fact that

50
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 1: Browns have the better running game. But we'll see how

51
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 1: this all goes. On Sunday twelve here in Houston one pm.

52
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 1: If you are up in Cleveland going into the game,

53
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 1: it's one pm. They are Eastern Standard time up in Cleveland.

54
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 1: And I like going Cleveland. The last time we went there,

55
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: like I said, was twenty fourteen. That was one of

56
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: my favorite trips. Talked about it with Mark Vannimer. I

57
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 1: think maybe last night the Browns were six and three.

58
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 1: This one a lot of people forget the Browns were

59
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: six and three. Mike Petton was head coach, Kyle Shanahan

60
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 1: was the offensive coordinator, and they were getting it done.

61
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 1: They were six and three. Brian Horrier had just gone

62
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 1: to the Falcons I think the week before and had

63
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: a huge come from behind victory. And then we come

64
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: in and I think I want to say we were

65
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 1: coming off of bye. Yeah, we were. We were coming

66
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 1: off of bye. Because the first day out of the bye,

67
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: that money out of the bye. Bill O'Brien announced that

68
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: Ryan Mallett was gonna be the starting quarterback going forward.

69
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: So Malla had a couple of weeks to get ready

70
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: for that one. So we go up there, we're starting

71
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: Ryan Mallett and he throws this first NFL touchdown passed

72
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 1: to wide receiver JJ Watt, which is kind of odd

73
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 1: and weird in some ways, but Wat made a great catch.

74
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: Wat got two roughing the punter penalties, I think on

75
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: consecutive drives. Then he had a huge four fumble sack. Later,

76
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: Maulot threw a laser touchdown to Garrett Graham and we

77
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: walked out of there with a big victory and then

78
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 1: got on a plane and album never forget that. We

79
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 1: got on a plane and the plane was just raucous.

80
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 1: It was unlike any of the trips we had, even

81
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: though we had won it was just raucous and it

82
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: was all like I turned to market some point I

83
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 1: was like this, z it man, we got our quarterback.

84
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: This is where we're gonna play with him. This is

85
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 1: gonna be awesome. And then one week later Cincinnati we

86
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 1: circled the drain. Malt was hurt out for the year,

87
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,279
Speaker 1: went back to Fitzy, and yeah, fitz he played pretty

88
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 1: well actually, But I just remember that trip to Cleveland

89
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,840
Speaker 1: being a really good one. So here's hoping Sunday turns

90
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 1: into that kind of trip. On the way home, Texas

91
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: two and six, Browns five and three at the midway mark,

92
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 1: and Thursday night, if you missed it, Indianapolis Colts went

93
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 1: into Nashville and put a Hurton on the Tennessee Titans

94
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 1: thirty four to seventeen. So both of them are six

95
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 1: and three, but the Colts have the edge because the

96
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: Colts won in Nashville. Now, the Titans last year when

97
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 1: they went to Indianapolis, Indianapolis was going to kick a

98
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 1: field goal to take a twenty seventeen lead. Tennessee blocked it,

99
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 1: ran it back, took a twenty four seventeen lead. The

100
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 1: Tannehill hit calif Raymond for a touchdown. They came out

101
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: of There were thirty one seventeen win at Indie last year,

102
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 1: and you never know it's gonna happen with Indeed because

103
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,479
Speaker 1: they're up and down. Kind of arrived a wave of

104
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers. But last night it was special teams. Trevor Daniel,

105
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 1: former Texas punter, shanked one for about seventeen yards. Colts

106
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,919
Speaker 1: scored after that take the lead. Then EJ. Speed blocked

107
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 1: the Trevor Daniel punt that went for a touchdown to

108
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: t J. Kerry that gave them a twenty seven seventeen

109
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 1: lead and it was over. Tennessee did not score in

110
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: the second half. Tennessee didn't even move all in the

111
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: second half, and the Colts jumped all over them. So

112
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 1: both teams heading it to the weekend six and three,

113
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 1: and I know there's is their hope. No I don't.

114
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 1: I don't want to say no, Um, I don't. Who knows.

115
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: Here's the thing you can do. You just win the

116
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: next game. Just win the next game one or another

117
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 1: this week. You can't be you can't be five and

118
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 1: zero winning next five in a row this week, So

119
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: just win this one against Cleveland and it won't be easy.

120
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 1: Cleveland favored by three about right at home you get

121
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 1: three points, so they're thinking these teams, even though the

122
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 1: records are vastly different, are pretty close. So we'll keep

123
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 1: an eye on all of that. All right, We've got

124
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 1: plenty of the show tonight. We've got a deep slant

125
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: one on one spotsored biax Afinity. That is with DBC

126
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: of course, and she sat down with Safety justin read.

127
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 1: We'll also have Drew Doherty with the final word later

128
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: in the show, and that is going to be with

129
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 1: Terrell Adams. It was nice to hear he had Terrell

130
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,159
Speaker 1: do twelve questions the other night does Drews doesn't, But

131
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: today kind of dive into the matchup a little bit more.

132
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: Which's final word? In our last segment, I'll give you

133
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 1: first Community Credit Union, first glance keys to the game

134
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 1: for this one against the Browns, and then I will

135
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: also get all my predictions for the NFL weekend. I

136
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 1: probably would have gone with the Cults last night, so

137
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a win. And it was a one point.

138
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 1: The Cults are favored by one. I asked John McClain

139
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: where we did our Thursday night show. Did you do

140
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 1: you think that this is wrong? And it showed last

141
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: night it was definitely not wrong. It was just too low.

142
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: The cults were dominant throughout the game, so we got

143
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 1: plenty to do on the show tonight. Oh and while

144
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: Little Texans Audio jukebox where reintroduced to newest Texan Josh McCown,

145
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: and I set it on these airwaves probably I think

146
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 1: a week ago or two weeks ago that I wanted

147
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 1: Josh mccount in this organization some way, shape or form.

148
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,119
Speaker 1: Now I'm thinking as a coach. But if he comes

149
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 1: in and he's got to step in in some way,

150
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 1: shape or form, I'm okay with that. I told you

151
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: I gave you homework a sign a few weeks ago

152
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 1: on Josh McCown. Go watch episode eight, I think it was.

153
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: That's the last episode, and then go find the episode

154
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: I think it's five or six where mccount is featured.

155
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 1: You'll fall in love with the guy if you haven't already,

156
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: even all you Stephen F. Austin people, you'll fall in

157
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 1: love with him too, even though he went to the

158
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 1: same US in the state. So anyhow, Josh mccownt in

159
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 1: the building. We'll hear from him later in the show,

160
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: what you merciless talk today about dealing with the COVID

161
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 1: and what he thought about Josh McCown being there. So

162
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 1: we have a little Texans audio jukebox a little later

163
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 1: in the show. But right now, let's get it. Let's

164
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 1: get into our hot a reads and they are brought

165
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,560
Speaker 1: to you by Geico, and Geico is coming with some

166
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: good news. Folks. You want to say fifteen percent on

167
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,320
Speaker 1: car insurance. All you gotta do is called Geico or

168
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: go to Geico dot com and they will take care

169
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 1: of you and it takes no more than fifteen minutes.

170
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 1: All right. Our first hot rate each and every Friday

171
00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 1: is Mark vandermer taking the opportunity to sit down with

172
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 1: the head coach of the ball club. So he sat

173
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,319
Speaker 1: down today with interim head coach Romeo Cornell to talk

174
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 1: about the Browns going back to Cleveland and everything involved

175
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 1: this game on Sunday. Mark, So, coach, what's it been

176
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 1: like getting ready for the Cleveland Browns? They started the

177
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: season running the football so well, I know the injury

178
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:19,839
Speaker 1: that schub slowed them down a bit, but what about

179
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 1: stopping that ground game in this one? Well, stopping the

180
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: ground game is always important, particularly for us since we

181
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 1: haven't been great at it. So we're gonna have to

182
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 1: do a good job against their running backs. And you know,

183
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 1: they got two of them now who run very well,

184
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,199
Speaker 1: and so we're gonna have to load it up a

185
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 1: little bit. I think that they will realize that that's

186
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 1: what we have to do, and so we're gonna see

187
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,599
Speaker 1: play action passes, bluelegs, you know, to take advantage of

188
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: the linebackers trying to feel the run. So if we

189
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: can stop the run, that will take a lot of

190
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:56,839
Speaker 1: pressure off the linebackers so they don't have to feel

191
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 1: as fast and then be able to get bodies in

192
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 1: that underneath throwing area. Coaches Baker mayfield one of those

193
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 1: quarterbacks similar to Watson in this way that you have

194
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: the play that's called, but it's also what happens after

195
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 1: whatever's called my breakdown, where he can improvise and run

196
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 1: or throw outside the pocket. Well, he has those capabilities, yes,

197
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 1: But one thing I've noticed about Baker this time is

198
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: that he seems to be very familiar and comfortable with

199
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 1: the offensive scheme that they're running, and he operates very

200
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 1: well within that scheme, and so he doesn't run as

201
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 1: much as he used to run. You know. Now, if

202
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 1: the protection breaks down or something like that, or if

203
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 1: everybody's covered and you give him a lane, then he'll

204
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: pull it down and run with it. But he's more

205
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: than willing now to take what the defense gets him,

206
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: and he'll throw it many times. Coach, last week, I

207
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 1: hate to talk about last week, but you ran for

208
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 1: over one hundred yards and that's a pretty decent number

209
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,120
Speaker 1: as a team. I know you want to see more.

210
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 1: But what about the Texans ability to move the ball

211
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 1: on the ground, Coach, Well, you know, it's always difficult

212
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 1: when you play in in a weather situation, whether it's

213
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 1: just rain or whether it's coal and whatever it is.

214
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 1: And teams that play in November and December outdoors usually

215
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 1: they have good running attacks because they know that, you know,

216
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 1: throwing the ball consistently it's not always the best thing

217
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:33,080
Speaker 1: to do if there's weather, you know. So if we

218
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 1: can generate that running attack and be good at it,

219
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 1: I think that that will take a lot of pressure

220
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 1: off us and put more pressure on their defense. What

221
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: about strategy and the kicking game as far as weather,

222
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,320
Speaker 1: is that the kind of thing you evaluate right before

223
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 1: the game, just to see how things are going with

224
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 1: kicks and wind and how it affects everything definitely. You know,

225
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 1: you go out and sometimes you go out early to

226
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 1: see what's happening with your direction. The wind is blowing,

227
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,359
Speaker 1: if there's rain, how much rain, and how that impacts

228
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 1: the moisture on the ball, you know, and then what's

229
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 1: the direction that when it's going, where it's going to crossfield,

230
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 1: whether it's going up and down the field, and then

231
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,319
Speaker 1: you have to make some decisions depending on that. Coach,

232
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 1: thanks so much for joining us. Best of luck against Cleveland.

233
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: He thank you. Mark. All right, let's get to our

234
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 1: next hot read, and that is going to be a

235
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 1: little bit of a COVID nineteen update, but now with

236
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: the Texans, it's with the Browns. Earlier this morning, there

237
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: were a number of statements put out, actually one statement

238
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: put out from the Cleveland Browns saying that they were

239
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 1: going to shut the building down today because an individual

240
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 1: in the building had tested positive for COVID. A while later,

241
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,200
Speaker 1: they gave up another statement that said we have found

242
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: that the through contract tracing, no other people are involved

243
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 1: in this, un like it was for the Texans. And

244
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 1: then they placed offensive lineman Chris Hubbard on the COVID

245
00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: nineteen list. Now, Hubbard has been starting at guard for

246
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: Wyatt Teller, and I would imagine why Teller's gonna be

247
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 1: back for this one, but Hubbard's been in that guard

248
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 1: spot for Teller at certain points this year. But Hubbard

249
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: now goes into COVID nineteen list. But lucky for the Browns,

250
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: they didn't have any contact tracing that affected other players

251
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,679
Speaker 1: like with the Texans it with Jacob Martin, Woody Merciless

252
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,360
Speaker 1: and Dylan Cole got caught in that. They were able

253
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 1: to come back after five days. So now Hubbard will

254
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: be away from the team, I believe it for ten days.

255
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 1: Actually he's got a test positive, of course, but that

256
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 1: takes a little hit at the depth of the offensive

257
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 1: line of the Browns. But at least with Wyatt Teller

258
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 1: coming back for the Browns, they should be good to go.

259
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: But I know when I saw that, friend first thought it's, oh, gosh,

260
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: does that have any games off. No, they got back

261
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 1: in the building later this afternoon and they're getting ready

262
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 1: for the Texans, and so everything shouldn't be a go

263
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: for Sunday against the Cleveland Browns, even with that COVID

264
00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: nineteen positive test for Chris Hubbard alignment for the Cleveland Browns. Now,

265
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 1: let's get to our last hot read, and that is

266
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 1: always the status report for this game. Who's in, who's out,

267
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 1: and how who's questionable or doubtful? All Right, On the

268
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: Texans side, you're gonna have two players out, Sneil Calimente

269
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: and David Johnson, both dealing with the concussions they sustained

270
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 1: in the win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The other two

271
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 1: are questionable, those being Dylan Cole and Charles Amna who

272
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: Now on the Brown side, the one thing that we're

273
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 1: going to keep an eye on is Nick Chubb. Kevin

274
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 1: Stefanski held his press interview his interview today. Like I

275
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 1: said earlier, they moved everything back because they had the

276
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 1: COVID situation, so they moved things back. And Nick Chubb

277
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 1: is back at practice this week. He is he was

278
00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 1: on ir injured knee and he got into that practice

279
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 1: winning a twenty one day window. And Stefanski said today

280
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 1: at his press junket, if you will is he's not

281
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 1: totally sure yet. He has seen Nick make the strides

282
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: that they expected and they still want to talk it

283
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 1: over with the medical staff because they want to be

284
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: totally sure. So still no complete status on Nick Chubb,

285
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 1: but he is available, but they don't have to make

286
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 1: that declaration. And my point with that is Cream Hunt

287
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 1: on his own very good running back. There's a lot

288
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 1: for the Browns, no doubt the Lee Russian the league

289
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,800
Speaker 1: I think three or four years ago. But you put

290
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt with now a healthy and rested Nick Chubb.

291
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: That run game averages one hundred and fifty yards per game.

292
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: It's one of the best in the league. And now

293
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: you're getting the bell cow back. Yikes. I kind of

294
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 1: want Nick to just take the day off. Just one

295
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:04,000
Speaker 1: more week. One more week is all we need from

296
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: your Nick Chubb. But either way, that's the one we'll

297
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 1: keep an eye on through the weekend. But as of

298
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: now it is still weight. And see now, my thought

299
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 1: on it is probably pretty much the same as Anthony Weavers,

300
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 1: and that is we're planning on him to play, and

301
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 1: I would if he doesn't, all right, well we gotta

302
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 1: face Cream Hunt. It's just kind of the same philosophy,

303
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 1: and that is, you gotta right in your lunch box,

304
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 1: your lunch pail, on your hard hat and go to

305
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 1: work and use everything you've got in your body to

306
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 1: bring those guys down, because it is not easy. So

307
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 1: we'll keep an eye on Nick Chubb for the Browns.

308
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,320

00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 1: The ones she did with Congillespie was absolutely fantastic. I

349
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:55,879
Speaker 1: can only imagine that this one with Justin Reid is

350
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 1: going to be as good. So here we go Deep

351
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 1: Slant one on one the Week sponsorbacks Affinity Deeply to

352
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: sound with Justin Reid or ask you any questions. We

353
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 1: talked to Eric Murray the other day and we asked

354
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 1: him about all these zoom calls and these zoom meetings

355
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 1: that you guys are having. Who's the most disruptive on zoom?

356
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 1: Who's always got the dog barking or the kids crying

357
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 1: zoom calls? Yeah, man, that's a good question. It's probably

358
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,239
Speaker 1: gonna be a j. Moore, Key Keon Crossing and one

359
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 1: of the two man the Dynamic Tandem man and especially scenes,

360
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,080
Speaker 1: but it won't be one of those guys. For the show.

361
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 1: Guys are characters. That's really funny because Eric thought it

362
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 1: would be him. He's like, I've got a dog I've

363
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 1: got a baby. He's like, it's just that he was

364
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 1: saying it was it was probably going to be him. Yeah.

365
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 1: Even Murray pretty solid about, you know, turning the mute

366
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,399
Speaker 1: on and off whenever he needed, you know, whenever you're

367
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,639
Speaker 1: speaking and not speaking. All right, let's talk about you.

368
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 1: How's year three going for you? Obviously it's not the

369
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 1: season anyone expected, but for you personally, You've had some

370
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 1: big plays this year. You've blocked a field goal against

371
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 1: the Titans, you had that big fourth down stop against Jacksonville.

372
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:01,160
Speaker 1: Tell me, now, it's been going for you so far?

373
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:02,639
Speaker 1: I feel like I made a couple of players. I

374
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 1: feel like I've grown a lot in the three years

375
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 1: being here on the middle side of the game, just

376
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:11,639
Speaker 1: understanding professional football, how offenses generically work, especially getting in

377
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 1: our division rivals, and what their strengths and weaknesses are.

378
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,120
Speaker 1: We're all not exactly happy about where we are right now.

379
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 1: You know, still a lot to fight for this season

380
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 1: and still a ways ago, Still got a bunch of

381
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,160
Speaker 1: games to play, including an exciting one this week against Cleveland.

382
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 1: So just still chopping away at it. Seem that ways

383
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,200
Speaker 1: we can get better. Me challenging myself the way that

384
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 1: can be better. One of the ways that I feel

385
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,359
Speaker 1: like a side from my own play that I've really

386
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 1: grown this year is just the leadership and be in

387
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 1: the room and trying to raise the level of play

388
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 1: of the guys around me and be that voice and

389
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,119
Speaker 1: you know, help teach them the way that I was

390
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 1: taught by the Vets my rookie year in Kareem and

391
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,719
Speaker 1: Tyring and Johnathan Joseph and be that guy for the

392
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,439
Speaker 1: new guys coming in. I mean, I can't help but

393
00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:00,320
Speaker 1: think about JJ and your third years, because JJ first

394
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,400
Speaker 1: two years the Texans made the playoffs. The third year

395
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 1: was a really disappointing season in twenty thirteen, and you

396
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 1: were here for the eighteen and twenty nineteen where the

397
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,679
Speaker 1: Texans also won the division and made the playoffs. So

398
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,640
Speaker 1: this is got to kind of a surprise for you. Yeah, weird. Yeah,

399
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 1: I didn't even know it happened, just like JJ, justin right.

400
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 1: So well, maybe I'll get to one hundred sexs too,

401
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 1: you know. I mean that's the trend that is going.

402
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 1: How has it been with Romeo Cornell? I know you

403
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 1: guys have had a lot of experience with him, and

404
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 1: you know he takes over the team. He's obviously done

405
00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 1: a lot for the defense in recent years, but what's

406
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: the leadership been like under him so far? All the

407
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 1: guys in the room love brack Man. He just has

408
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 1: some special about the way that he coaches that brings

409
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: the juice, brings the energy. I mean, everyone remembers the

410
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: video that went around whenever he was dancing after the

411
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 1: Jaguars win the first time. He just really knows how

412
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 1: to get the juice and energy out of the guys

413
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 1: and get guys really excited to be on the field

414
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: and play football and play physical and play hard and thing.

415
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 1: He's done a great job, you know. And he's a

416
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:58,919
Speaker 1: defensive guy too, which I enjoyed being on the defensive

417
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 1: side of the guy. So he's really started, you know,

418
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 1: challenging the defense on being better and you know what

419
00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 1: I mean, making more plays and getting for it down

420
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 1: stops and raising that level will play overall. He said

421
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,399
Speaker 1: that you've really settled into your role, that you're playing

422
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 1: more in the box these days in these last few games,

423
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 1: and you've done really well. You've got some tackles and

424
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,680
Speaker 1: you seem really comfortable there. How how has that been

425
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,159
Speaker 1: for you adjusting to your role. We've put in a

426
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,360
Speaker 1: new scheme this year, and with the covers that you've

427
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,479
Speaker 1: been running with, all the cover threes and everything, and um,

428
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,479
Speaker 1: I have I've settled into it. I feel comfortable in defense.

429
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 1: I've really started to get a feel for it, especially

430
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:34,880
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. But just continuing to build

431
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 1: on that, you know, I mean there's always ways that

432
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,160
Speaker 1: you know, we can keep with the disguises, make things

433
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 1: a little bit better, you know what I mean, Cristoper

434
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,920
Speaker 1: dropping things like that. But I have settled into the role.

435
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 1: I'm starting to have more fun making a couple more

436
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,479
Speaker 1: plays in that role down though, and having a good

437
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 1: time doing it. What is it that you like playing

438
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:54,919
Speaker 1: in the box so much? Is it that you're closer

439
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 1: to the ball? Is that you get to land a

440
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 1: few more hits? What is it about that? Like, it's

441
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 1: just a lot more actionally, you know it, get to

442
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,400
Speaker 1: be a little bit more instinctive being close to the ball,

443
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 1: Get to fit in the run a lot more. You know,

444
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 1: you get to do a little bit of everything. Get

445
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: the blitz off the edge. I didn't get get the

446
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 1: blitz nearly as much my first two years. I get

447
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 1: to do now with all the exotic patterns that coach

448
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 1: Wei is putting in. So I had fun with it.

449
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 1: So when training camp started, you had to get used

450
00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 1: to Eric Murray playing alongside you, which which you guys

451
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: did really well. But then throughout the course of the

452
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: season there's been a lot more changes, either with injury

453
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 1: or Whatnotum, Eric Murray's playing a little bit more nickel.

454
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 1: You've got Lonnie Johnson at safety, with everyone else transitioning

455
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,120
Speaker 1: around you, How has that made your job a little

456
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 1: bit harder? What if you had to do to sort

457
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 1: of adjust to that. Well, for me, it's just been

458
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 1: about staying flexible, staying versatile. One of my strong points

459
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 1: is I really know the defense extremely well and every

460
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:51,159
Speaker 1: position in it. So whenever injuries happened or anything happens

461
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,400
Speaker 1: where we got to switch a guy around, I really

462
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: feel comfortable with switching playing in the deep part of

463
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: the field, down low, maybe even the start if the

464
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,440
Speaker 1: team needs me to do that too. So we got

465
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 1: a couple of guys that are flexible and dynamic and

466
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:05,879
Speaker 1: you know, have versus toll abilities that they're able to

467
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 1: move around positions. So for me, it's just about putting

468
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 1: everybody in the best place possible for the defense to

469
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,120
Speaker 1: be side and make plays. So specifically for me, that's

470
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,640
Speaker 1: playing whatever role that coach we've asked me to play

471
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 1: right now is playing down in the box, and I

472
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,160
Speaker 1: have fun doing that. But whatever happens, you know, injuries happen,

473
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 1: the whole COVID situation happens. Guys have to move around sometimes,

474
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 1: and I'm comfortable doing that too. I mean, I've seen

475
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 1: you a lot out and about in the community. You

476
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,679
Speaker 1: talk about being a good communicator. I know things are

477
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 1: different this year. Everything's virtual, but you have made some appearances.

478
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,400
Speaker 1: You've talked to some local high schools. You've been really

479
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 1: passionate about getting out the vote and social justice initiatives.

480
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 1: What part of that aspect you like so much? What

481
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 1: are some of your message has been to the youth

482
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 1: around Houston. Yeah, Well, whenever I was a kid, I

483
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,119
Speaker 1: had a bunch of role models and aisles that I

484
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,439
Speaker 1: looked up to an athletic world, and now I'm on

485
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,040
Speaker 1: the other side of that, and it's really cool and

486
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,640
Speaker 1: not take that responsibility seriously, you know, still get back

487
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 1: and be that guy that when talked to a high

488
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,920
Speaker 1: school team because that's something that those young men are

489
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 1: never going to forget, you know what I mean. And

490
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,439
Speaker 1: Pele will just affect a couple of them and you know,

491
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 1: inspire them to be better, to put in a better effort,

492
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,080
Speaker 1: or maybe even inspire them to grow up one day

493
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:14,640
Speaker 1: and do the same thing what I did for them,

494
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 1: for them to do for the next generation after them.

495
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:18,679
Speaker 1: You know, that's what I really seek to do. So

496
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: it's always been a big initiative of mine. You want

497
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:23,399
Speaker 1: to be out and be active in a community and

498
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,960
Speaker 1: make a difference, and that's what intend to keep doing.

499
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: I think it's really interesting because it's not just sports

500
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 1: that you're talking about. You're also very accomplished obviously having

501
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 1: gone to Stanford. You're pursuing your engineering degree. So you know,

502
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 1: there's a lot of options for kids these days. They

503
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,639
Speaker 1: don't have to just be athletes, because not everyone's going

504
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,160
Speaker 1: to be a professional football player. But you can really

505
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 1: drive home to stay in school. Steady hard message. What

506
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 1: about you and John Reid. You've got two engineers now

507
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 1: are aspiring engineering. Reid's got another Jay Reid. He's got

508
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:54,800
Speaker 1: an engineering degree. And everyone makes fun of me for

509
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 1: always wanting to talk about engineering, because it's something I'm

510
00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:59,879
Speaker 1: passionate about. But do you have you two talked about that?

511
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: Jay Reid is and I say, young Jay Reid, he's

512
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 1: actually ordered me. But yeah, uh, he's very passionate. He's

513
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 1: a very smart guy. I mean, anytime you hold a

514
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 1: conversation with him, you can tell how intellectual and cerebral

515
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 1: that he is as a player. Um, and I think

516
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: that's really paying dividends for him and coming into an

517
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,439
Speaker 1: NFL season where he didn't have the opportunity and reps

518
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 1: for in training camp. You know, there was no OTAs,

519
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: there really wasn't a real training camp. Um. But he's

520
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: done a good job coming in just because he is

521
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 1: so smart and being able to still learn the playbook

522
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: and adapt. And I think he's going to be continue

523
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 1: to build and get better and he's gonna be a

524
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 1: good player for us. All Right, So Sunday, you guys

525
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 1: faced Baker Mayfield and the Browns. You were here obviously

526
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 1: when Baker was a rookie, it was it was your

527
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 1: rookie year as well. What do you remember about him

528
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 1: and how much has he changed? Yeah? I felt like

529
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,119
Speaker 1: a lot's changed. I feel like their offensive lines a

530
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 1: little bit better. He had a couple more weapons with them.

531
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:53,639
Speaker 1: Odell I wish I did get to play against in

532
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,399
Speaker 1: this game because I love the challenger, you know, I

533
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 1: mean playing as talented guys m But Odell is down,

534
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 1: but he still has a bunch of talent around, and

535
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 1: David and Joku in awesome Hooper and Jarvis Landry and

536
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,840
Speaker 1: the two dynamic running backs they have in Chubb and Hunt.

537
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:11,639
Speaker 1: I felt like he's grown on the middle side of

538
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 1: the game, still not afraid to make throws. But I

539
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:15,439
Speaker 1: still remember the last time he played, and that we're

540
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 1: able to make a couple of turn over opportunities as

541
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 1: well too, Zach Cunningham having to pick six of force

542
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 1: a fumble on the goal line. So we just got

543
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,120
Speaker 1: to keep making those explosive plays on the defensi side

544
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 1: of the ball as well as on the offensive side

545
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 1: of the ball like we did last week. All Right,

546
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 1: something you two have in common. You both make commercials.

547
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 1: I mean, he's probably got a few more on you,

548
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: but I actually like his commercials. They're pretty funny. The

549
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 1: ones in the stadium we saw about it lost my

550
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 1: kids home. Yeah, yeah, gars are pretty good too. Justin

551
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 1: don't sell yourself short. How do you think overall in

552
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,679
Speaker 1: your commercial debut? Yeah, I mean I have fun. Um.

553
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,000
Speaker 1: Hib always does a great job every year with the

554
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 1: commercials that they put out, and I had a lot

555
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:53,719
Speaker 1: of fun shooting it with the Shine and I'm enjoyed

556
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 1: just making just going out and being and having fun

557
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 1: with those guys. Well, we always have fun. Catching up

558
00:27:58,320 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 1: with you justin best of luck for the rest of

559
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:05,680
Speaker 1: the season. Much problem. Speaking of cool, that man is

560
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: very cool. That is justin Reeds starting safety in his

561
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 1: third year, hoping to get that defense on track against

562
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,640
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield and the Cleveland Browns. Now, it's a Browns

563
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,920
Speaker 1: skill set without OBJ, and I don't know how that's

564
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 1: going to impact them too much. I saw them score

565
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 1: thirty seven points. It gets the Cincinnati Bengals without OBJ

566
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 1: because guys like Donovan People's, Jones, Harrison, Bryant, David and Joku.

567
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 1: Those guys all stepped up and made plays. So from

568
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,879
Speaker 1: that perspective, I'm not saying you don't need OBJ. Be

569
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 1: nice to have him, but they've got other weapons that

570
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 1: they can rely on. Not to mention a ground game

571
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 1: that is just ready to bury you. Man. Offensive line

572
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 1: from twenty eighteen to twenty twenty. If there's anything about

573
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 1: the Browns that has just gone through the roof twenty

574
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:58,920
Speaker 1: eighteen and offensive line was not good twenty twenty, oh baby,

575
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 1: they will not your block off. And look, they're running

576
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 1: a lot of that zone game that was popular with

577
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 1: with Mike Shanahan, Gary Kubiak kind of in that tree.

578
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 1: Kevin Stefanski learned a lot from Gary Kubiak, and he's

579
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 1: employed that they don't do that solely. That's not the

580
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 1: only thing they do. It's not inside outside split. They're

581
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 1: doing a lot of different things. They'll run a few

582
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 1: gap plays and tackle wraps and things like that. But

583
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:25,239
Speaker 1: the one other thing we'll do is run a lot

584
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 1: of trick plays. We're gonna get into that in just

585
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 1: a little bit with our first community credit Union first

586
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 1: glance keys to the game, and those are coming up

587
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:37,200

595
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 1: Papa John's Gishtan two is better than one? How many

596
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 1: times have you heard that one? More than once? I

597
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: bet because it just adds up. For example, there are two,

598
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 1: not one, great reasons to fill up with Chevron with

599
00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 1: Tekron Number one unbeatable cleaning power, a number two or

600
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: maybe this should be number one unbeatable mileage. Plus Chevron

601
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 1: puts Tekron in every grade every gallant of their gasoline.

602
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 1: So that's two, no way, three unbeatable reasons to go

603
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 1: with the one and only Chevron with Tekron care for

604
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 1: your car. What do you call a group of friends

605
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 1: who spend every Sunday huddled around the TV for hours,

606
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: wearing horns on their heads and blue and red paint

607
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 1: on their faces, jumping with a Miller light in one

608
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 1: hand and a hot barbecue short rib and the other,

609
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:56,640

623
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,760
Speaker 1: this week's big Gating Extra Points? Saturday nights at ten

624
00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:02,240
Speaker 1: thirty or after the late local news on ABC third Dean, Oh, Yeah,

625
00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 1: here we go on a Friday Nation of Texans All Access.

626
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 1: I am your host, John Harris, football analysts and sideline reporter,

627
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 1: and it's time for this week's first Community Credit Union

628
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 1: First Glance Keys to the game FCCU, the Official Credit

629
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:21,080
Speaker 1: Union of the Houston Texans. All Right, each and every

630
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 1: week I dive right in. This is the segment where

631
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 1: it is we're gonna tuck football and heavy football. Not

632
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 1: that we do on any other segments, but this one

633
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 1: is all about ball, no fluff, no pop culture references,

634
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 1: so maybe there might be a few. This is what

635
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 1: we do in the segment. We give the keys to

636
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: the game on both sides of the ball. Now, Cleveland

637
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 1: Browns five and three on the year, playing pretty good football,

638
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,960
Speaker 1: is a great football. They've beaten the teams they should

639
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: have beaten. Probably the one that's maybe a little bit

640
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 1: of a surprise but not really when he saw the

641
00:32:56,760 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 1: game went was the Colts, but Philip Rivers is just

642
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: turn the ball over. The offense really couldn't get anything

643
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,760
Speaker 1: going for the Colts in that one, and it probably

644
00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 1: was the Browns I would think best overall win. But

645
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 1: other than that, they've beat the teams they're supposed to beat.

646
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 1: They've lost the teams like the Steelers thirty eight to

647
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 1: seven at Pittsburgh. So if you're kind of playing transitive property, like, hey,

648
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 1: wait a second, the Texans lost twenty eight twenty one.

649
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 1: They lost thirty eight seven. Okay, well, maybe that's why

650
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 1: Cleveland's only a three point favorite, which is essentially the

651
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:34,720
Speaker 1: three you get for playing at home. So that being said,

652
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 1: let's dive in to these offensive keys for I'm sorry,

653
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 1: the defense's keys to stopping the Browns offense. Now, just

654
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 1: like two years ago, this offense revolves around the running game.

655
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,239
Speaker 1: Well two years ago, that's not true. They actually were

656
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:56,040
Speaker 1: trying to revolve this thing around Baker Mayfield. He was rookie,

657
00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:59,479
Speaker 1: everybody really excited about what he could do. And now

658
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 1: they've tried to five more balance in the offense and

659
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 1: probably leaning a little bit more towards pounding the rock.

660
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 1: But like I said, when they got down in that

661
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 1: game against Cincinnati, to bring them back and take a lead,

662
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 1: then lead again and takul the third time, it was

663
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:19,120
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield shooting that pill all over the field. This

664
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 1: team averages one hundred and fifty yards per game on

665
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 1: the ground. That's fifth in the NFL. Now, they did

666
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:27,919
Speaker 1: a lot of that the first four games of the year,

667
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 1: or the first few games of the year when they

668
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 1: had Nick Chubb healthy. They haven't quite gotten into those numbers.

669
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 1: The last last few weeks. But one hundred fifty yards

670
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 1: per game is fifty in the NFL. They get chubbed back,

671
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 1: and that's gonna be a valid number because they were

672
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 1: running for that when they had Chubb and Kareem Hunt

673
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,439
Speaker 1: in the lineup. They thrown for one hundred and ninety

674
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 1: six point eight yards per game. That's twenty ninth in

675
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:52,239
Speaker 1: the league. That's brock Oswili or in again, neither or

676
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:57,239
Speaker 1: because when twenty sixteen you looked up and you're like, okay,

677
00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 1: the offense is over one hundred and twenty five yards

678
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:02,040
Speaker 1: rushing would have thrown for one hundred and forty yards

679
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 1: or something like that. I think we threw for hunder

680
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 1: two hundred yards at year. I believe one hundred ninety

681
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 1: six point eight. That's twenty ninth in the league. Total

682
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 1: offense three hundred forty six point eight yards per game.

683
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:14,480
Speaker 1: That's twenty fourth in the league. They've lost ten turnovers

684
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,800
Speaker 1: in eight games. That tells me, if I do math,

685
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 1: that tells me that there's at least one turnover available

686
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:25,719
Speaker 1: two someone on the Texans defense. So here we go.

687
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:30,160
Speaker 1: Let's dive into this Brown's offense. What do the Texans

688
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,919
Speaker 1: have to do Number one. These are no certain order,

689
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 1: just as they come to me. I just I put

690
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:40,480
Speaker 1: him down. Number one. Disrupt Baker in the well. When

691
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:44,120
Speaker 1: you see Baker Mayfield, you're like, man, well short and

692
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 1: I expected. I think it says six two, but I

693
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:49,479
Speaker 1: think he's really about six one, maybe even six six feet.

694
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:51,239
Speaker 1: I had a chance to meet him at the Big

695
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:55,360
Speaker 1: twelve media days back when he's at Oklahoma twenty sixteen.

696
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:57,399
Speaker 1: I think it's about four four or five years ago,

697
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:00,520
Speaker 1: I think, And I just remember standing next to him, thinking, boy,

698
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 1: I'm looking him running on That means he's about six feet. Well.

699
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:06,520
Speaker 1: When the Texas that played quarterbacks six one or under

700
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew, mainly they've been able to hold them in

701
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:16,760
Speaker 1: check because they essentially envelop that quarterback in the well.

702
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,400
Speaker 1: They did a great job of that against Gardner Minshew

703
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,440
Speaker 1: actually both times they played against him, actually the three

704
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 1: times they played against but mainly the time in London

705
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 1: and then the first game of twenty twenty the Texas

706
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 1: also won. They're gonna have to do that with Baker. Now,

707
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:34,919
Speaker 1: Keevins Stefans getting this offense, does they do a great

708
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 1: job of moving Baker bootlegs play actions where they move

709
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 1: the pocket. They do a number of different things to

710
00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 1: get him out where he has site lines. But if

711
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,440
Speaker 1: they're gonna straight drop, they've got to make sure that

712
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 1: rush envelops him the pocket to take away his site lines,

713
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,479
Speaker 1: make him throw over the top of that line. That's

714
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 1: gonna be tough. That's the hardest part of being a

715
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 1: shorter quarterback is storing over the top of all that

716
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 1: chaos in front of you. If the well is enveloping

717
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 1: him and he's gonna throw over all that, that's gonna

718
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 1: be a good thing. I think for the Texans, all right,

719
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:09,279
Speaker 1: number two, this key is called you go this way,

720
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 1: I'll go that way. And this is what I mean

721
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:14,160
Speaker 1: by that, because the Browns are so good running the

722
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:17,480
Speaker 1: zone game. And if you remember the Texans when the

723
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 1: Texans ran the zone game when Arian Foster was here,

724
00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 1: Arian was an absolute master at starting a zone run

725
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,799
Speaker 1: to the left and then cutting it back behind where

726
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:31,759
Speaker 1: the center Chris Myers had been. So when you get

727
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 1: the defensive line running and the linebackers running, and then

728
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:36,720
Speaker 1: you just keep them running and then let the running

729
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 1: back cut off all that, well, the Browns are very

730
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:40,759
Speaker 1: good at that. Both Kareem Hunt and Nick Chubb do

731
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:43,719
Speaker 1: a really nice job with that. Those cut up runs,

732
00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 1: as I call them, they're not cut back, they're more

733
00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:48,520
Speaker 1: cut up runs where you kind of stay you don't

734
00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:50,839
Speaker 1: stay in your same path, but you just adjust your

735
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,760
Speaker 1: path and then take it up where the center had

736
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:58,719
Speaker 1: been to take away those runs. This is what I

737
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:00,279
Speaker 1: mean by you go this way, I'll go that way.

738
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,959
Speaker 1: The second level defenders can do what's called a fault.

739
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 1: They can fall back, and basically what that means is

740
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 1: the front it's when it fuels that zone blocking line

741
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:13,319
Speaker 1: moving in a direction. Those front guys all move with

742
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 1: it and fast, and they try and stays. They's try

743
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 1: to stay on their gap integrity as much as they can,

744
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:23,400
Speaker 1: and the linebackers kind of fit into those cut up lanes.

745
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:27,400
Speaker 1: So it's like everybody's gap integrity kind of slides over

746
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,360
Speaker 1: and the linebackers kind of fall back into place for

747
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 1: those other, you know, kind of the backside gaps. If

748
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:36,840
Speaker 1: the linebackers get fast flown the other way with the

749
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 1: defensive line, well that's easy to cut back on. Those

750
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:40,480
Speaker 1: guys are cut up on those guys and they got

751
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,720
Speaker 1: big runs. Linebackers have got to fit themselves back behind

752
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:45,839
Speaker 1: the play and let that cut up run turn right

753
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:49,800
Speaker 1: back into them. So line goes this way, linebackers go

754
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:53,239
Speaker 1: the other way. Use that little fallback scheme, and you'll

755
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:57,840
Speaker 1: be five number three. The bag of tricks the Browns

756
00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:03,040
Speaker 1: in the games that I watched, you name it, they've

757
00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:05,239
Speaker 1: run it. I've seen them run I don't know if

758
00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:07,440
Speaker 1: he's called jet sweep a trick play, but I've seen

759
00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:12,080
Speaker 1: jet sweep with a reverse pass. I've seen double not

760
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:14,920
Speaker 1: double pass, but reverse pass thrown out the Jarvis Landry,

761
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:18,879
Speaker 1: he throws it back to somebody. Seen reverses. You name

762
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:23,000
Speaker 1: the trick play, They've run it, and it's really a

763
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,760
Speaker 1: part of their offense. So it's not, I guess, a trick.

764
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,480
Speaker 1: But you've got to mind your p's and q's. You

765
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 1: can't leave a guy wide open because oh it's a reverse,

766
00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:34,359
Speaker 1: it's a reverse. Especially we got like Jarvis Landry. They

767
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:37,320
Speaker 1: ran a reverse pass against the Cincinnati Bengals, and Jarvis

768
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,160
Speaker 1: Landry back shoulder to ball on the sidelines. I think

769
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 1: it was Donald People's jones and it was one of

770
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:44,320
Speaker 1: the better throws of the day. And Burrow and Mayfield

771
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 1: was slinging all day and I mean they were fantastic,

772
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:48,760
Speaker 1: and Jarvis Landry has dropped it right in a bucket

773
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:52,560
Speaker 1: to donard people's jones. So Jarvis Landry's always a candidate

774
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,840
Speaker 1: to throw the football. And he's left handed, so anytime

775
00:39:55,880 --> 00:40:00,040
Speaker 1: he is emotioned to the left your antenna and he

776
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:03,640
Speaker 1: to go up to think could that be a reverse pass?

777
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:05,920
Speaker 1: Could it be a double pass? Those are the things

778
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,440
Speaker 1: you got to keep an eye on. Kevin Stefanski likes

779
00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:10,200
Speaker 1: to pull out a few of the trick plays the

780
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:14,960
Speaker 1: bag of tricks. Oh, they also ran remember the Texans

781
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 1: as Mark called the loop de loop flip de flop

782
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:21,120
Speaker 1: play against the New England Patriots where they handed the duke,

783
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:23,839
Speaker 1: who handed the hap who pitched to shun. They've got

784
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 1: that play as well in the arsenal. So they got

785
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:27,759
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff that they like to pull out

786
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:31,680
Speaker 1: the bag of tricks. So read keys and stay on them.

787
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:35,160
Speaker 1: Number four. This is title Jarvis is one thing that

788
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:39,480
Speaker 1: tight ends are the other. I will never never in

789
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:41,799
Speaker 1: any way, shape or for him, DENNI grade Jarvis Landry. Ever,

790
00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 1: I think he is a fantastic wide receiver and that

791
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:46,840
Speaker 1: this is not meant to denigrade him. I think he

792
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,120
Speaker 1: is a He is someone the Texans have to be

793
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:52,239
Speaker 1: aware of. But he's not a burner. He runs great

794
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:55,240
Speaker 1: routes and you just gotta be come and make the tackles,

795
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 1: unlike twenty fifteen when we didn't make the tackles playing

796
00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 1: him when he was with Miami, he took those things

797
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:03,800
Speaker 1: to the house. Yeah, so yes, Jarvis is a problem. However,

798
00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 1: the tight ends might be an even bigger problem. Austin Hooper,

799
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:11,600
Speaker 1: David and Joku and Harrison Bryant, who's a draft pick

800
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:15,239
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. All of those guys are kind of

801
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:18,839
Speaker 1: like wide receivers, and when they use twelve personnel, well,

802
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 1: invariably you try and match up the personnel that's gonna

803
00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:24,960
Speaker 1: put in Joku, Hooper or Bryant out on a linebacker

804
00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:27,919
Speaker 1: or out on a nickel, some matchup you don't want.

805
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:30,799
Speaker 1: That's gonna be a problem. So you've got to know

806
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:33,759
Speaker 1: how you're accounting for all the tight ends when they're

807
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:37,280
Speaker 1: on the field and what situations. Sometimes with twelve personnel,

808
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:38,840
Speaker 1: you might want to be in nickel, you may not

809
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:40,359
Speaker 1: want to be in base. You may not want those

810
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,320
Speaker 1: tight ends matched up on an outside linebacker or something

811
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:45,920
Speaker 1: of that magnitude, or even an inside linebacker. The tight ends,

812
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 1: you gotta treat you like receivers. And number five, no

813
00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:54,400
Speaker 1: bust in the secondary, pure and simple. No bust no wherever.

814
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:58,680
Speaker 1: Know how you're swapping routes in zone, know who's doing what,

815
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 1: no how you're matching up out of the bunch. No

816
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 1: bust in the secondary. Cannot give up any cheap plays.

817
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,799
Speaker 1: Keep it in front, all right. Let's flip it over

818
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,799
Speaker 1: to the Browns defense facing his Texans offense. They give

819
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 1: up only one hundred and six point eight yards per

820
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:19,080
Speaker 1: game on the ground. However, last week or two weeks

821
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:21,319
Speaker 1: ago against the Raiders, excuse me, they gave up two

822
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:24,359
Speaker 1: hundred nine rushing yards. Josh Jacobs hit him where where

823
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:28,279
Speaker 1: they weren't and really outschemed them too. There's some good

824
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 1: plays I've seen from that game where Josh Jacobs really

825
00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:34,040
Speaker 1: had nobody there. Twelve yard game, so he was able

826
00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:36,280
Speaker 1: to pile up a number of yards against the Browns.

827
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 1: So that one or six point eight it's okay. But

828
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:42,719
Speaker 1: there have been teams that have just gotten to track

829
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:44,359
Speaker 1: meets with them, like the Bengals did, and just said

830
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:45,840
Speaker 1: we're gonna just throw it every down. We don't need

831
00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:48,239
Speaker 1: to run it and they didn't, So take that for

832
00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:50,160
Speaker 1: what it's worth. That's eleventh in the league passing yards.

833
00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:53,319
Speaker 1: They give up two sixty four point six circle out

834
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:54,759
Speaker 1: as a key in a second, that's twenty fourth in

835
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:56,719
Speaker 1: the league. They give up three seventy one point four

836
00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,920
Speaker 1: that's twentieth in the league. But they have generated fourteen

837
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,800
Speaker 1: turnovers and the Browns overall are plus four in turnover margin.

838
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:06,360
Speaker 1: The stars Miles Garrett, we know that he's sent a

839
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:09,040
Speaker 1: big deal in the offseason. Then you got Denzel Ward

840
00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:12,799
Speaker 1: at corner, who I think is very very good. I mean,

841
00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,320
Speaker 1: the first drive against the Bengals, he broke up a

842
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 1: past a deep downfield, he had a tackle for a

843
00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 1: loss on a screen out near him, and then he

844
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:24,360
Speaker 1: forced the interception in the end zone where he was

845
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:26,560
Speaker 1: covering a tight end who was actually blocking, so he

846
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:28,880
Speaker 1: was just kind of folding the area. Joe Burrow went

847
00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:31,359
Speaker 1: to throw it, Denzel Ward's sky tipped it picked off

848
00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:32,759
Speaker 1: in the end zone. That was all on the first drive.

849
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:36,719
Speaker 1: Denzel Ward's a fantastic player. Now it's not that way

850
00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:38,600
Speaker 1: across the board. It's a number one key against the

851
00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:42,960
Speaker 1: Browns defense not scared of depth. Now here's what I

852
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:46,920
Speaker 1: mean by that, not the players, the personnel, like first team,

853
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:51,520
Speaker 1: second team thirteen Blitzer's coming from death. I don't know

854
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 1: how many times I saw Kevin Johnson as the nickel

855
00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 1: coming from one side from depth where he looked like

856
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:01,440
Speaker 1: he's gonnaing coverage and then he blitzed, and then a

857
00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:03,799
Speaker 1: backside of a defender edge defender on the other side

858
00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:06,440
Speaker 1: would drop. They ran, nap and blitz. I don't know

859
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:10,440
Speaker 1: how many times against the Sinnati Bengals a ton you

860
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:13,680
Speaker 1: gotta know how you're gonna pick that up, especially when

861
00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:16,280
Speaker 1: you're an empty. When you're an empty, you gotta figure

862
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:19,799
Speaker 1: it out. It'll only be four guys Russian. But if

863
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 1: you get locked on ooh that edge defender, I got

864
00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,239
Speaker 1: a lock on him, Well then he drops. How are

865
00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:27,760
Speaker 1: you gonna account for it. I've seen the Arizona Cardinals

866
00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 1: do something pretty cool that if that happens, they pew back. Basically,

867
00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 1: it was an offensive linement to the other side, Like

868
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:36,719
Speaker 1: if they get a drop, they immediately look to the

869
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,560
Speaker 1: other side and then they pick up somebody over there.

870
00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:41,759
Speaker 1: So we'll see how that happens. But you cannot be

871
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:43,799
Speaker 1: scared of them coming from depth. You gotta know how

872
00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:47,280
Speaker 1: you're picking them up. Number two, Miles Garrett's a huge concern,

873
00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:51,399
Speaker 1: there's no question. And in parentheses quietly though, fifty four

874
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:54,440
Speaker 1: is really good to fifty four is Olivier Vernon, and

875
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:56,799
Speaker 1: he had two sacks last week the last time against

876
00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:59,640
Speaker 1: the Raiders. He didn't have any sacks before that. He's

877
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:02,799
Speaker 1: not one once was. But if he goes one on one,

878
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:05,320
Speaker 1: he's gonna get loose. At some point. You've got to

879
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:07,879
Speaker 1: know how you're going to contain Garrett. That's a big key.

880
00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:10,399
Speaker 1: But who's ever one on one with Olivia Vernon's got

881
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:12,880
Speaker 1: to buckle down because Vernon can go after them and

882
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:17,560
Speaker 1: make life very difficult for them. Number three, get the

883
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:21,719
Speaker 1: ball fast. There's something we all want Sean to do.

884
00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:25,920
Speaker 1: But b this is something that quarterbacks that had success

885
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,560
Speaker 1: against the Raiders did against the Browns did They got

886
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,920
Speaker 1: the ball out of their hands Derek Carr and Joe Burrow.

887
00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:36,520
Speaker 1: Ball got out hot, It came out hot, Philip Rivers

888
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:40,160
Speaker 1: held onto it a little bit longer. Interceptions not the

889
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:42,600
Speaker 1: whole game, but he just didn't play well. You gotta

890
00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:45,520
Speaker 1: take the profit. I don't care if it's nickel and dime.

891
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:48,000
Speaker 1: You add up enough nickels and dimes, you're a rich person.

892
00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:50,920
Speaker 1: Get the ball out, get it to your weapons, and

893
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:53,319
Speaker 1: let's go. Because I don't think the Browns secondary can

894
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,800
Speaker 1: cover everybody. If you get it out to him for

895
00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:57,319
Speaker 1: Sun to have to tackle him, I don't think they

896
00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:00,600
Speaker 1: can do it. Number four, there will be he seems

897
00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:04,360
Speaker 1: find them. Now here's what I mean. It seems in

898
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:06,880
Speaker 1: the run game. The Browns like to get up field.

899
00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:10,640
Speaker 1: Their guys love to get up field up front. That

900
00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:13,239
Speaker 1: creates seems in the run game, and you can see

901
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:16,680
Speaker 1: it against the Texans defense. Every so often you'll see

902
00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 1: one of the Texans fly up field trying to split

903
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,879
Speaker 1: a gap and it leaves this huge seam and then

904
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:25,200
Speaker 1: invariably a running back finds it. That's what I'm asking

905
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:27,480
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson the running backs to do this week. When

906
00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:31,000
Speaker 1: the Browns give that seam because somebody's gone up field

907
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:34,160
Speaker 1: and run out of the play, exploit it. Find the seam.

908
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:37,040
Speaker 1: They will be there. There will be seams. I've seen

909
00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:40,600
Speaker 1: Vernon and Garrett run up field and the interior knocked

910
00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:43,080
Speaker 1: the defensive interior off the ball and the backs are

911
00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:46,279
Speaker 1: just saw them through twelve fifteen yard game. That's what

912
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,200
Speaker 1: the Texans need to be able to do against this

913
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:53,600
Speaker 1: Cleveland defense. Furthermore, and number five, the middle can be moved.

914
00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:58,239
Speaker 1: I don't think the Browns interior is filled with a

915
00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:01,520
Speaker 1: bunch of vice Wilforks and DJ readers. They don't have

916
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:04,279
Speaker 1: those kind of guys in the middle. You can move

917
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:06,200
Speaker 1: them off the ball. There are a number of times

918
00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:08,600
Speaker 1: I saw a Bengals game with the Bengals interior which

919
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:11,560
Speaker 1: is not great guards and our guard we're knocking the

920
00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:13,719
Speaker 1: interior the Browns two two and a half yards off

921
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:16,360
Speaker 1: the ball and a running back could get up in

922
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,160
Speaker 1: net and then make a cut. That's what our backs

923
00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:21,360
Speaker 1: have to be able to do. There will be seems

924
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:25,400
Speaker 1: find them and keep in mind, the middle can be moved.

925
00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:27,879
Speaker 1: Got to run the ball, and I think they can

926
00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:30,560
Speaker 1: do it against this Brown's crew. But we will see.

927
00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:32,720

939
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:19,080
Speaker 1: When you're watching the game yelling at the quarterback to

940
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:21,560
Speaker 1: throw the ball, throw it, Williams is wide open. Why

941
00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:23,759
Speaker 1: are you doing this to me? Use that rocket arm?

942
00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:26,279
Speaker 1: Come on, they don't listen to you. But if you

943
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,000
Speaker 1: went into a Geico office and yelled, someone please help

944
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:31,879
Speaker 1: me save some money on car insurance, everyone would hop

945
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:34,480
Speaker 1: to it, except the intern because it's his first day

946
00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:37,360
Speaker 1: and he doesn't even have a computer yet. See better,

947
00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:40,920
Speaker 1: switch and save with Geico. It's almost better than sports.

948
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,680
Speaker 1: Here's the snow it's looking flips the ball, diving for

950
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:54,480
Speaker 1: houstands and the Texans go in front. Game day is

951
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:56,640
Speaker 1: every day. We had a lot of energy and We

952
00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:59,279
Speaker 1: brought a lot of spark for this organization. The best

953
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:02,680
Speaker 1: you have to come five nights a week. They hits

954
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:07,440
Speaker 1: keep on coming. The Texans say they have it, they

955
00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:14,200
Speaker 1: do No, it's Texans, all Exans. We got one hour

956
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:16,280
Speaker 1: down and one hour left to go on this Friday

957
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:19,640
Speaker 1: edition of Texans All Access from the Hounday Texans Radio Studio.

958
00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:23,000
Speaker 1: I am your host, John Harris, football analyst and Southern reporter,

959
00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:26,239
Speaker 1: and so glad that you are with me. We've hit

960
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:28,000
Speaker 1: a number of different things in the first hour. Hopefully

961
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:31,240
Speaker 1: enjoyed my first community credit union. First Glance Key's the game,

962
00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:36,040
Speaker 1: given little insight into the matchups that are taking place,

963
00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:40,680
Speaker 1: and I think I just I'm leaning shootout and hopefully

964
00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:42,399
Speaker 1: the Texans will win a shoot out the Browns one.

965
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:45,080
Speaker 1: There's thirty seven thirty four over the Bengals a couple

966
00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:47,840
Speaker 1: of weeks ago, the Texans and the shootout with the Titans.

967
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:51,160
Speaker 1: They were unable to hang on to that one. Took

968
00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:54,680
Speaker 1: a thirty six twenty nine lead, but unfortunately two touchdowns

969
00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:58,200
Speaker 1: to unanswered touchdowns get Titans to win. Hopefully the Texans

970
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:01,120
Speaker 1: can win this shootout. Hopefully it hasn't turned into that.

971
00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:04,400
Speaker 1: Hopefully the Texas defense rises up, it stops the Browns,

972
00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:07,040
Speaker 1: and Texas score seventy five points and we win seventy

973
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:10,440
Speaker 1: five to six. But I don't think that's going to happen.

974
00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:14,440
Speaker 1: That's a little off base, but either way, we have

975
00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:17,160
Speaker 1: taken a deep dive into the game. We've also heard

976
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:20,120
Speaker 1: from Justin Reid. Now it's time to hear from a

977
00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:22,399
Speaker 1: lot more people who went to the podium this week.

978
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:26,600
Speaker 1: So it's time for Texans Audio jukebox. All right, let's

979
00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:33,799
Speaker 1: go in here from the man himself, number four, DeShawn Watson.

980
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:40,000
Speaker 1: He talked about his one of his good friends. He's

981
00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:43,799
Speaker 1: protecting him, Laramie Tunsel. He's got a tough task, as

982
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:46,279
Speaker 1: does tight A Howard because Myles Garrett will line up

983
00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:49,880
Speaker 1: in a number of different spots on the defensive line.

984
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:55,480
Speaker 1: And Deshaun talked about LT taken on Miles Garrett. Man,

985
00:50:55,520 --> 00:50:58,360
Speaker 1: it's great. I feel like the best left talker in

986
00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:00,640
Speaker 1: the game. So I'm glad that he's on my team.

987
00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:04,160
Speaker 1: I'm glad that, you know, he's healthy and he's being

988
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:05,759
Speaker 1: able to, you know, do what he do and he

989
00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:08,880
Speaker 1: take the charge on the offensive linement, so I'm comfortable,

990
00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:10,960
Speaker 1: you know, when he's back there or when he's on

991
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,480
Speaker 1: my left side and he's fully healthy, and can you know,

992
00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:15,760
Speaker 1: go out there each and every stamp that battle itself

993
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:19,200
Speaker 1: every town, So v Miles Garrett will be worth the

994
00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:22,279
Speaker 1: price of admission. And luckily for you, you get to

995
00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:25,840
Speaker 1: see it free at home um this weekend. So you

996
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:28,279
Speaker 1: got that going for you. All right, Let's hear a

997
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:32,760
Speaker 1: little bit more from the Shawn who was asked about

998
00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:36,360
Speaker 1: a guy who has been his go to guy guests.

999
00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:39,400
Speaker 1: It seems like that, it seems like when a big

1000
00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:42,560
Speaker 1: playing to be made, Shaw Watson looks up his man

1001
00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:47,200
Speaker 1: will Fuller, and Sean was asked about the value of

1002
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:52,760
Speaker 1: having will Fuller on this team and on his starting offense.

1003
00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:56,120
Speaker 1: He's always been valuable. He's a guy that's very supposed

1004
00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:57,640
Speaker 1: to can make a lot of big time plays, can

1005
00:51:57,719 --> 00:52:00,879
Speaker 1: run routes, can block, can do everything, and so, uh

1006
00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:02,680
Speaker 1: you know, as long as he healthy ends on that field,

1007
00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:05,600
Speaker 1: he gives himself, but uh, you know, the whole team

1008
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:07,440
Speaker 1: a great chance to win the ball game and make

1009
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:14,279
Speaker 1: good place. Now. One of Watson's favorite receivers last year

1010
00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:16,160
Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen, He's still a guy that he's got

1011
00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:20,080
Speaker 1: a good strong connection with is Kenny Stills. Sean was asked,

1012
00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:22,520
Speaker 1: how do you get Kenny Stills more involved in the offense.

1013
00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:24,560
Speaker 1: I mean, just continue to do what we do. You

1014
00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:26,440
Speaker 1: can try to put him in positions that you know

1015
00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:28,840
Speaker 1: is going to get him the ball. You know, my

1016
00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:31,720
Speaker 1: job is to find the open guy. So Kenny Stills,

1017
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:33,759
Speaker 1: he knows his role, he knows exactly what he needs

1018
00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:36,480
Speaker 1: to do for that, and you know, we gotta you know,

1019
00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:38,279
Speaker 1: get him, you know, on the field a little bit

1020
00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:41,279
Speaker 1: more so he can have opportunities to get the ball. So, uh,

1021
00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:43,680
Speaker 1: that's the deal. And it depends on you know, every

1022
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:46,200
Speaker 1: every game is different, depends on you know, what the

1023
00:52:46,239 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 1: defense is trying to do, what they're trying to take away,

1024
00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:50,920
Speaker 1: who they're trying to take away. So uh, we definitely,

1025
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:53,280
Speaker 1: you know, you know, to make sure that he's getting

1026
00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:55,239
Speaker 1: some targets. And you know, because he's a great talent,

1027
00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:57,680
Speaker 1: he's a great receiver, and he's gonna you know, he's

1028
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:00,040
Speaker 1: helped us a lot in the past two years. I

1029
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:01,560
Speaker 1: thought Tim ken right up a great point where had

1030
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:04,000
Speaker 1: him on the Coach's Show on Monday Night and we're

1031
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:06,160
Speaker 1: gonna sat at five to six here we catch up

1032
00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:10,239
Speaker 1: with Anthony Weaver or Tim Kelly or Romeo Cornell. We've

1033
00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:11,960
Speaker 1: had a chance to interview all of them over the

1034
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:14,440
Speaker 1: last four or five weeks. It's been really fun. We're

1035
00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:16,680
Speaker 1: talking with Tim Kelly and we were kind of talking

1036
00:53:16,719 --> 00:53:19,520
Speaker 1: about Kenny Stills in some sense, and he brought the

1037
00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:23,000
Speaker 1: fact that Kenny was open on a route but just

1038
00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:24,560
Speaker 1: ran out of time and DeShawn had to move out

1039
00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:26,360
Speaker 1: of pocket. In fact, it was the third down play

1040
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:29,759
Speaker 1: where Deshaun ran to the sideline against the Jaguars and

1041
00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:31,399
Speaker 1: then got bumped out of bounds. I got a fifteen

1042
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:34,680
Speaker 1: yard penalty. Kenny was open on that play. He was

1043
00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:36,720
Speaker 1: moving it on a post route from across the field.

1044
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:38,360
Speaker 1: Deshaan just had to get out of dodge because he

1045
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:41,719
Speaker 1: was getting some pressure with the blitz. So it's not

1046
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:43,319
Speaker 1: as if they're going out of their way. We're not

1047
00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:46,799
Speaker 1: talking to Kenny. They just on that play just didn't

1048
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:50,000
Speaker 1: have didn't have time. But Kenny, as Deshaun has said,

1049
00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:52,840
Speaker 1: he's made a bunch of plays for this organization the

1050
00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:55,120
Speaker 1: last couple of years, no question about that. All right,

1051
00:53:55,160 --> 00:54:00,880
Speaker 1: let's hear from Anthony Weaver, defensive coordinator for your Houston Texans,

1052
00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:04,959
Speaker 1: and he's got a challenge on his hands. How do

1053
00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:08,680
Speaker 1: you stop Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt. What's interesting about

1054
00:54:09,239 --> 00:54:11,160
Speaker 1: the two of them is, obviously Nick Chubb's been been

1055
00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:13,719
Speaker 1: hurt recently, so in our breakdown he doesn't really show up.

1056
00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:16,359
Speaker 1: So you watch Kareem Hunt and you see how good

1057
00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:18,880
Speaker 1: he is, and as you're watching, you're like, god, how

1058
00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:22,239
Speaker 1: good is the Nick Chubb get? And they're both just

1059
00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:26,439
Speaker 1: very physical downhill backs. They have good vision, speed, They

1060
00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:29,200
Speaker 1: run hungry, you know, that's that's what you like about

1061
00:54:29,239 --> 00:54:31,759
Speaker 1: and they run hungry. They're always falling forward. So it's

1062
00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:33,400
Speaker 1: going to be a challenge for our defense, but a

1063
00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:36,239
Speaker 1: challenge obviously that that will accept. You know, two of

1064
00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:38,080
Speaker 1: our last three games, we've or three of our last

1065
00:54:38,080 --> 00:54:41,080
Speaker 1: four really we've played pretty decent run defense, and hopefully

1066
00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:45,640
Speaker 1: we continue that going into this game. Two hard running

1067
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:48,840
Speaker 1: backs are gonna make life tough on the Texans. However,

1068
00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:53,399
Speaker 1: the one thing that I've definitely noticed defensively the last

1069
00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:58,360
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, in particular against the Packers too, when

1070
00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:02,799
Speaker 1: they play with the right gap integrity and guys are

1071
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:06,200
Speaker 1: coming to tackle and not just hit, they do a

1072
00:55:06,239 --> 00:55:09,480
Speaker 1: pretty solid job against the run. There's one other thing

1073
00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:11,600
Speaker 1: that stands out where they struggle against the run, and

1074
00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:14,240
Speaker 1: that is there are times and this kind of folds

1075
00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:16,960
Speaker 1: into both of these actually, but there are times when

1076
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:20,520
Speaker 1: guys are running up field thinking it's a pass or

1077
00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:22,880
Speaker 1: thinking it's a bootleg, and they leave kind of a

1078
00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:25,400
Speaker 1: seam in the defense in the back invariably finds that.

1079
00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:28,800
Speaker 1: But when they're playing with good gap integrity and they're

1080
00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:33,320
Speaker 1: tackling not just throwing shoulders into guys, that this defense

1081
00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:37,280
Speaker 1: is able to slow down some running backs. The chunk

1082
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:39,840
Speaker 1: runs that James Robinson had the other day, I promise

1083
00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:41,879
Speaker 1: you I can look at that and go this guy

1084
00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:44,640
Speaker 1: jumped out of his gap for some reason. This guy

1085
00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:48,320
Speaker 1: didn't get to the right gap. And looks that Jackson

1086
00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:55,040
Speaker 1: offensive line is decent. This Brown's offensive line is exceptionally good.

1087
00:55:55,640 --> 00:55:58,280
Speaker 1: So they're gonna have their challenges on Sunday, there's no doubt.

1088
00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:01,239
Speaker 1: And tackling those two backs that's the big key. It's

1089
00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:06,279
Speaker 1: not about hitting them, it's about hitting and wrapping up

1090
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:10,520
Speaker 1: and stopping them. Now, last Sunday, Russ Blacklock John Grenard

1091
00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:13,439
Speaker 1: had to play a number of different plays and John

1092
00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:15,600
Speaker 1: Reid got in blitz quarterback a few times when he

1093
00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:18,160
Speaker 1: was in there on defense. These rookies are really getting

1094
00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:23,319
Speaker 1: baptism by fire and Anthony. We we talked about the

1095
00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:25,520
Speaker 1: good start, those rookies seem to be off too well.

1096
00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:27,680
Speaker 1: Ross Like like I've talked about continually every week, he

1097
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:29,799
Speaker 1: just continues to develop and you see him gain more

1098
00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:32,680
Speaker 1: confidence each and every game. He had a nice tackle

1099
00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:35,160
Speaker 1: was almost a TfL didn't quite get him in the backfield,

1100
00:56:35,160 --> 00:56:36,520
Speaker 1: but had a nice tack where he went down the

1101
00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:39,200
Speaker 1: line and split a double team, put some pressure on

1102
00:56:39,239 --> 00:56:40,920
Speaker 1: the quarterback one time and got him to flush him

1103
00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:42,719
Speaker 1: out of the pocket. So you see he's starting the

1104
00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:46,160
Speaker 1: game confidence like John Grenard's. He still makes some mistakes

1105
00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:48,200
Speaker 1: all right, that you got to live through as it

1106
00:56:48,239 --> 00:56:51,120
Speaker 1: continue to grow and improve, and that'll happen, and that'll

1107
00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:54,520
Speaker 1: happen John Reid, just like all these three rookies that

1108
00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,680
Speaker 1: that I've talked about, you know, Blacklock, Grenard and him.

1109
00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:01,360
Speaker 1: He is another ball guy, so we're trying to find

1110
00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:03,440
Speaker 1: ways to get him on the field. There are some

1111
00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:06,440
Speaker 1: veterans who are playing good ball, so that's not always

1112
00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:08,960
Speaker 1: the easiest task. But he has a trait in one

1113
00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:10,880
Speaker 1: of those traits is his ability to blitz all right,

1114
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:12,920
Speaker 1: So we're trying to use them in situations where we

1115
00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:14,920
Speaker 1: can put him out there and get him after the

1116
00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:18,000
Speaker 1: quarterback and obviously because he can also cover, now puts

1117
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:19,760
Speaker 1: the offense in conflict about what he's going to do.

1118
00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:23,000
Speaker 1: Just watching them on Sunday and what they're doing, and

1119
00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:25,800
Speaker 1: going back and watching the film of those guys, Grenard,

1120
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:28,280
Speaker 1: Blacklock and Read I think are going to be pieces

1121
00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:30,440
Speaker 1: in this defense going forward. Now are they gonna be

1122
00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:32,920
Speaker 1: pro bowlers? They're gonna be all pros? I don't know,

1123
00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:36,560
Speaker 1: and I would lean that way, But can they be

1124
00:57:37,160 --> 00:57:41,920
Speaker 1: solid defenders for you that give you a great effort

1125
00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:45,840
Speaker 1: production disruption. Yeah, I think those guys can do it.

1126
00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:48,880
Speaker 1: They're starting to show it, especially upfront with ross Man.

1127
00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:52,120
Speaker 1: Ross had a number of nice plays. And what I

1128
00:57:52,160 --> 00:57:55,280
Speaker 1: like about Ross I saw to today practice. He is

1129
00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:58,080
Speaker 1: in the ear of JJ Watt. They're working together. They're

1130
00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:01,320
Speaker 1: working together on Wednesday, working on pass rush moves together,

1131
00:58:01,360 --> 00:58:04,120
Speaker 1: working their hands. I just love seeing that because Ross

1132
00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:06,720
Speaker 1: is just soaking it up, getting all that knowledge that

1133
00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:09,080
Speaker 1: he eventually one day we'll share with somebody else. But

1134
00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:11,280
Speaker 1: I said during training camp, I thought by the end

1135
00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:13,520
Speaker 1: of the year and Ross Blacklock would be the best

1136
00:58:13,560 --> 00:58:16,280
Speaker 1: interior player that the Texans have and he's starting to

1137
00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:18,000
Speaker 1: show that. And John Garnard was on the field for

1138
00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:20,880
Speaker 1: it against the Jacks. I thought he did a pretty

1139
00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:22,800
Speaker 1: solid job while he was out there. So you get

1140
00:58:22,840 --> 00:58:24,880
Speaker 1: another edge guy with some twitch. I want to see

1141
00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:27,240
Speaker 1: John really got after the passes this week, really start

1142
00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:30,040
Speaker 1: to show some of that toolbox that he's got. Pass

1143
00:58:30,120 --> 00:58:32,120
Speaker 1: rush moves. He got one time through the quarterback with

1144
00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:34,720
Speaker 1: a long arm that he went against Cam Robinson and

1145
00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:37,320
Speaker 1: got Cam Robinson pushed back near loot and he moved

1146
00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:39,200
Speaker 1: out of the pocket. But need more of that, more

1147
00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:43,560
Speaker 1: disruption coming from those rookies. And lastly from Anthony Weaver

1148
00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:46,800
Speaker 1: facing Baker Mayfield. A guy that can do a little

1149
00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:51,760
Speaker 1: bit of everything, can make all the throws very volatile,

1150
00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:54,120
Speaker 1: like you know he's saw screaming yelder, but I mean

1151
00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:57,480
Speaker 1: volatile and that he can explode at any point, just

1152
00:58:57,640 --> 00:59:01,160
Speaker 1: lighting you up. Coach, we we talked about the fact

1153
00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:04,160
Speaker 1: that they cannot let Mayfield get in a group. He

1154
00:59:04,200 --> 00:59:06,640
Speaker 1: plays with a tremendous amount of moxie and confidence, and

1155
00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:09,320
Speaker 1: you could tell that the offense feeds off that. So

1156
00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:12,280
Speaker 1: whenever he gets it going and he's bouncing around having fun,

1157
00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:15,040
Speaker 1: talking trash, that that helps them. So we got to

1158
00:59:15,040 --> 00:59:17,360
Speaker 1: do everything we can to try to you know, push

1159
00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:20,520
Speaker 1: the pocket, collapse the pocket on him, knocks them balls down,

1160
00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:23,280
Speaker 1: and get him frustrated because you know, when he gets

1161
00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:25,840
Speaker 1: that swagger going, it could take him a long way.

1162
00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:30,760
Speaker 1: All right, let's flip this jewbox over to Tim Kelly.

1163
00:59:32,280 --> 00:59:35,880
Speaker 1: He talked about Duke Johnson, the fact that Duke was

1164
00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:38,680
Speaker 1: fairly impressive when he went in last week. Duke's a warrior.

1165
00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:41,040
Speaker 1: He goes out there and he plays hard. He's physical.

1166
00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:43,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I think he only came out for two

1167
00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:46,880
Speaker 1: plays after you know, David went down this past week.

1168
00:59:46,960 --> 00:59:49,760
Speaker 1: So he's out there and he's battling. I mean that

1169
00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:53,040
Speaker 1: that really hasn't changed since he's been here. He's always

1170
00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:55,000
Speaker 1: been out there doing whatever we've asked him to do.

1171
00:59:55,160 --> 00:59:58,040
Speaker 1: And now he's he's you know, getting an opportunity for

1172
00:59:58,120 --> 01:00:00,880
Speaker 1: us to feature him. I'm excited to see what he

1173
01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:03,080
Speaker 1: can do on Sunday now. As I've talked about all

1174
01:00:03,120 --> 01:00:05,240
Speaker 1: week long, talked about earlier in the show, the weather

1175
01:00:05,400 --> 01:00:10,240
Speaker 1: could be, yeah, very Cleveland like if you will rainy

1176
01:00:10,560 --> 01:00:13,120
Speaker 1: definitely before the game. We'll see if rains during the game.

1177
01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:15,640
Speaker 1: But rain's going to be a factor. Weather's going to

1178
01:00:15,680 --> 01:00:17,200
Speaker 1: be a factor, could be a little bit colder. Coach

1179
01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:19,000
Speaker 1: Kelly talked about having to deal with the weather as

1180
01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:21,320
Speaker 1: well in Cleveland. Well, I'm gonna be there as soon

1181
01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:23,200
Speaker 1: as you know, on the early bus. We have two

1182
01:00:23,200 --> 01:00:25,080
Speaker 1: different buses. I'll take the early bus to get out there,

1183
01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:27,520
Speaker 1: and and uh, you know, walk the field and see

1184
01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:30,400
Speaker 1: what's going on with the wind and the conditions, and uh,

1185
01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:33,720
Speaker 1: you know, really really rely on Danny Barrett, who who

1186
01:00:33,720 --> 01:00:36,720
Speaker 1: obviously with his history in Canada, UM has dealt with

1187
01:00:36,760 --> 01:00:38,800
Speaker 1: the elements a lot. And and John Perry, you know,

1188
01:00:38,800 --> 01:00:41,480
Speaker 1: with his his history up in the Northeast, UM has

1189
01:00:41,520 --> 01:00:43,840
Speaker 1: dealt with the elements a lot. And UM, you know,

1190
01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:46,320
Speaker 1: just kind of kind of make sure that we have

1191
01:00:46,360 --> 01:00:48,320
Speaker 1: a plan for for just like you said, if it

1192
01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:50,280
Speaker 1: comes out and the winds are swirling like it looks

1193
01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:53,440
Speaker 1: like it was when they were playing Vegas, um, you know,

1194
01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:55,240
Speaker 1: that could make it difficult to throw the ball going

1195
01:00:55,280 --> 01:00:57,600
Speaker 1: in a certain direction. Uh, taking all those things into

1196
01:00:57,600 --> 01:01:00,800
Speaker 1: account and making sure again that replay that we're sending

1197
01:01:00,840 --> 01:01:02,360
Speaker 1: in there to the seawan that we're gonna have an

1198
01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:04,280
Speaker 1: ability to go out there and execute and be successful.

1199
01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:07,080
Speaker 1: All right, let's flip this audio jukebox dial over to

1200
01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:12,760
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson with David Johnson out. As I announced earlier

1201
01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:16,600
Speaker 1: in the show, Duke Johnson steps in again and he's

1202
01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:20,640
Speaker 1: going back to face his old Cleveland squad, and Duke said,

1203
01:01:20,680 --> 01:01:22,520
Speaker 1: you know what, I just want to get touches. Man,

1204
01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:24,120
Speaker 1: I think I can impact the game that way. It

1205
01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:25,960
Speaker 1: doesn't matter to me how I get it, where I

1206
01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:29,400
Speaker 1: get it. I just think the more opportunities I get that,

1207
01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:31,240
Speaker 1: you know, the more you get a rhythm in the

1208
01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:34,600
Speaker 1: football game, and you know you have more and bet

1209
01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:36,760
Speaker 1: opportunities to make more plays, the more touches you get.

1210
01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:38,880
Speaker 1: So the way you give it to me, it doesn't

1211
01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:41,040
Speaker 1: matter to me, to be honest, I just wanted to

1212
01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:42,760
Speaker 1: be able to go out and make plays. I'm telling

1213
01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:44,120
Speaker 1: you what. He has his ball in his hands. He's

1214
01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:46,360
Speaker 1: pretty electric. And I know you look at last week's

1215
01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:48,880
Speaker 1: stats too. Forty one yards that's it, But man, I'm

1216
01:01:48,880 --> 01:01:51,240
Speaker 1: telling you there were about fifteen or twenty yards behind

1217
01:01:51,280 --> 01:01:52,680
Speaker 1: a lot of screamings, a lot of times he made

1218
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:55,680
Speaker 1: guys miss He turned a minus four yard run into

1219
01:01:55,760 --> 01:01:57,760
Speaker 1: a yard or two and you don't think that matter

1220
01:01:57,800 --> 01:02:00,240
Speaker 1: as much. But man, you're not gonna see that that

1221
01:02:00,400 --> 01:02:04,000
Speaker 1: forty made up in his statuet. So I think Duke

1222
01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:06,240
Speaker 1: did a pretty good job with that. Hopefully gets in

1223
01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:11,040
Speaker 1: a rhythm with this offensive line, and hopefully this offense

1224
01:02:11,120 --> 01:02:13,959
Speaker 1: can really get going with that running game. Now. Duke

1225
01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:18,000
Speaker 1: definitely liked having an increased role last week. I got

1226
01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:19,800
Speaker 1: a little win in the fourth quarter, you could tell

1227
01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:22,240
Speaker 1: from where I was. But he didn't like having an

1228
01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:25,880
Speaker 1: increased role for sure. Just knowing that you know your

1229
01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:29,160
Speaker 1: last carry may not be your last, you know you're

1230
01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:31,200
Speaker 1: going there. You just try to take what the defense

1231
01:02:31,280 --> 01:02:34,200
Speaker 1: give you and just hope you know that throughout the

1232
01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:36,160
Speaker 1: game you can keep wolling on them and keep willing

1233
01:02:36,160 --> 01:02:39,160
Speaker 1: on them, and eventually one is gonna bust. You just

1234
01:02:39,200 --> 01:02:40,920
Speaker 1: kind of kind of have the mind said when you

1235
01:02:40,920 --> 01:02:44,400
Speaker 1: know you're gonna get multiple carries or multiple opportunities, you know,

1236
01:02:44,600 --> 01:02:46,360
Speaker 1: just take what they give you, try not to do

1237
01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:50,040
Speaker 1: too much and let everything fallward at me. All Right's

1238
01:02:50,040 --> 01:02:54,479
Speaker 1: here from Brandon Cooks, who also went to the MIC

1239
01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:58,680
Speaker 1: this week, and Brandon was asked about playing with the

1240
01:02:58,720 --> 01:03:01,400
Speaker 1: Shawn Watson's the first time and those two have had

1241
01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:03,120
Speaker 1: a nice connection. Man. I'm telling you, there was a

1242
01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:06,600
Speaker 1: ball thrown by the Shan in the first quarter. I

1243
01:03:06,640 --> 01:03:09,360
Speaker 1: think it was the second drive of the game, and

1244
01:03:09,560 --> 01:03:12,400
Speaker 1: I watched that throw happened live and I was shocked

1245
01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:15,560
Speaker 1: that it got to Brandon Cooks, but I think the

1246
01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:18,360
Speaker 1: Shawan threw it because it was Brandon Cooks and he

1247
01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:21,080
Speaker 1: knew Cooks was going to extend and get away from

1248
01:03:21,120 --> 01:03:23,600
Speaker 1: the defenders and separate from the defenders and he did.

1249
01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:25,360
Speaker 1: And I'm telling you that ball had to be in

1250
01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:27,280
Speaker 1: about a six inch space and de Sean put it

1251
01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:31,280
Speaker 1: right there. And Brandon talked about what that's like playing

1252
01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:34,439
Speaker 1: with number four. You talk about a guy that's been

1253
01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:37,919
Speaker 1: consistent and special weekend week out and what everything that's

1254
01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:43,040
Speaker 1: been going on. It's unfortunately because our record doesn't show it,

1255
01:03:43,120 --> 01:03:45,960
Speaker 1: but that's a guy that's coming to play every Sunday,

1256
01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:51,680
Speaker 1: and you know, my expectation has been just exactly what

1257
01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:53,600
Speaker 1: I thought it would be, and that's being playing with

1258
01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:56,120
Speaker 1: a special quarterback, no doubt in the connection they have

1259
01:03:56,400 --> 01:04:00,400
Speaker 1: is definitely special. Speaking as special, a guy walked in

1260
01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:03,560
Speaker 1: the building this week that I think is special on

1261
01:04:03,600 --> 01:04:08,120
Speaker 1: so many different levels now as a singular standalone quarterback. No,

1262
01:04:08,240 --> 01:04:11,440
Speaker 1: you wouldn't think that Josh McCown has a career that

1263
01:04:11,520 --> 01:04:15,040
Speaker 1: sets everything on fire. But he's gone from team to team.

1264
01:04:15,160 --> 01:04:16,840
Speaker 1: He's been with a number of them. But now he's

1265
01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:19,800
Speaker 1: come back home to State of Texas, and I know

1266
01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:21,800
Speaker 1: he's got to be happy to be here with the Texans.

1267
01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:25,880
Speaker 1: Announced this week that Josh McCown with the Texans, and

1268
01:04:26,160 --> 01:04:28,960
Speaker 1: Josh went to the mic today and said he's happy

1269
01:04:28,960 --> 01:04:31,760
Speaker 1: to be in Texas. Again, that's surreal for me. I

1270
01:04:32,040 --> 01:04:34,200
Speaker 1: didn't you know. I was processing that this morning coming

1271
01:04:34,240 --> 01:04:37,240
Speaker 1: in and just for me, I think really special. And

1272
01:04:37,360 --> 01:04:40,120
Speaker 1: I'll say this just because when I was coming out No. Two,

1273
01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:43,080
Speaker 1: you know, in the franchise, was was just starting up

1274
01:04:43,160 --> 01:04:45,640
Speaker 1: and drafted David and you know, there was a part

1275
01:04:45,640 --> 01:04:47,160
Speaker 1: of me that was just like and it was kind

1276
01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:49,080
Speaker 1: of a foregone conclusion that day was Gon get drafted.

1277
01:04:49,120 --> 01:04:51,080
Speaker 1: But there was a part of me that was, you know,

1278
01:04:51,080 --> 01:04:52,680
Speaker 1: played down the road to Sam Houston. I was just

1279
01:04:52,720 --> 01:04:55,120
Speaker 1: like hoping, you know, maybe something worked out or I

1280
01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:57,560
Speaker 1: ended up here. So so a little bit surreal in

1281
01:04:57,560 --> 01:05:01,479
Speaker 1: that regard, just you know, had some you know, close

1282
01:05:01,520 --> 01:05:04,720
Speaker 1: opportunities you know down there, you know, throughout the journey

1283
01:05:04,720 --> 01:05:06,640
Speaker 1: with the Cowboys every now and then, but but you know,

1284
01:05:06,760 --> 01:05:09,640
Speaker 1: just never never quite fit. And uh and so to

1285
01:05:09,760 --> 01:05:11,880
Speaker 1: be home and to get it, to get it, to

1286
01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:13,800
Speaker 1: be able to do this at home is special and

1287
01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:16,280
Speaker 1: so I'm very thankful for that. I love hearing that twang.

1288
01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:19,960
Speaker 1: Wet my man Clint Sterner, he's got that Texas twang

1289
01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:24,320
Speaker 1: as well. And I started thinking about this a lot,

1290
01:05:24,400 --> 01:05:27,280
Speaker 1: like I don't like Josh McCall be here, but how

1291
01:05:27,480 --> 01:05:30,520
Speaker 1: really did he get here? One man played a pretty

1292
01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:34,120
Speaker 1: strong role. ZACUTID Vice President Football Operations, Jack Eastery. We

1293
01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:36,400
Speaker 1: did have conversations and it was, you know, it was

1294
01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:39,520
Speaker 1: just more of what this team has to offer and

1295
01:05:39,520 --> 01:05:41,680
Speaker 1: and why it was a good fit, you know, and

1296
01:05:41,680 --> 01:05:44,640
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, just wanting to add experience to

1297
01:05:44,640 --> 01:05:46,960
Speaker 1: the quarterback room. Want to add you know, you know

1298
01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:49,200
Speaker 1: somebody else that could that could you know, play if

1299
01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:51,840
Speaker 1: needed if they got down the stretch. And and uh

1300
01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:54,440
Speaker 1: and for me looking for a fit, that was that

1301
01:05:54,480 --> 01:05:57,520
Speaker 1: was closer to home, you know. And uh, um, I

1302
01:05:57,560 --> 01:06:00,880
Speaker 1: don't know necessarily that I would have made this, you know,

1303
01:06:00,960 --> 01:06:03,160
Speaker 1: with anybody else other than you know, somebody that was

1304
01:06:03,240 --> 01:06:05,720
Speaker 1: a couple hours from from the house. So so that

1305
01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:07,960
Speaker 1: was the biggest thing. And you know, the conversations with

1306
01:06:08,080 --> 01:06:10,040
Speaker 1: Jack were just you know, trying to get to understand

1307
01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:12,840
Speaker 1: just you know, where this team was at, where where

1308
01:06:12,840 --> 01:06:15,520
Speaker 1: it was headed and uh and then you know, learning

1309
01:06:15,520 --> 01:06:19,480
Speaker 1: it a little bit about the Sean. I absolutely, unequivocally,

1310
01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:23,040
Speaker 1: one thousand percent love the fact that Josh McCown is here.

1311
01:06:23,320 --> 01:06:25,760
Speaker 1: I gave you all homework assignment. I'm gonna give it

1312
01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:29,120
Speaker 1: to you again. Go watch the All or Nothing Show

1313
01:06:29,360 --> 01:06:32,520
Speaker 1: on Amazon for the Philadelphia Eagles the twenty nineteen season,

1314
01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:36,000
Speaker 1: and go watch I think it's episode five or six,

1315
01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:39,000
Speaker 1: but find the segment on Josh. You will love it.

1316
01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:42,680
Speaker 1: You will absolutely fall in love. And then watch the

1317
01:06:42,760 --> 01:06:45,800
Speaker 1: last episode because if you remember the playoff game, Carson

1318
01:06:45,840 --> 01:06:48,360
Speaker 1: Winks goes out because of a hit by our Palads,

1319
01:06:48,440 --> 01:06:51,560
Speaker 1: Debon Clowney, and Josh McCown for the first time his

1320
01:06:51,640 --> 01:06:55,520
Speaker 1: NFL career goes into a playoff game, and then later

1321
01:06:55,560 --> 01:06:58,320
Speaker 1: he tears his hamstring but continues to play because he

1322
01:06:58,320 --> 01:07:00,640
Speaker 1: Eagls don't have any other option at quarterback. He continues

1323
01:07:00,640 --> 01:07:05,960
Speaker 1: to play and it is just Man, I watched that

1324
01:07:06,080 --> 01:07:08,160
Speaker 1: the first time and when it was all over, I

1325
01:07:08,240 --> 01:07:10,560
Speaker 1: was just I was a tear. I felt tears come

1326
01:07:10,640 --> 01:07:13,560
Speaker 1: in my eyes. Oh my god. This guy is what

1327
01:07:13,640 --> 01:07:15,760
Speaker 1: football is supposed to be about. And now he's a

1328
01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:17,520
Speaker 1: Texan and I hope he stays at Texan for the

1329
01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:19,280
Speaker 1: rest of his career in some way, shape or for him.

1330
01:07:20,080 --> 01:07:22,320
Speaker 1: I don't know exactly what that role is. I know

1331
01:07:22,360 --> 01:07:24,600
Speaker 1: it's not gonna be quarterback forever, but man, if he

1332
01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:29,320
Speaker 1: can stay with this Texans organization, I would absolutely love it,

1333
01:07:29,640 --> 01:07:32,120
Speaker 1: just absolutely love it. Mean, Landry Locker and I have

1334
01:07:32,200 --> 01:07:36,439
Speaker 1: talked about this many many times. Man, he is just

1335
01:07:36,760 --> 01:07:40,480
Speaker 1: He's perfect. He's absolutely perfect. And as he walks in

1336
01:07:40,600 --> 01:07:44,240
Speaker 1: the building, he gets an opportunity to have some time

1337
01:07:44,520 --> 01:07:48,120
Speaker 1: with number four, and he said he's impressed by what

1338
01:07:48,160 --> 01:07:51,080
Speaker 1: he sees from Deshaun Watson from what I've seen you

1339
01:07:51,440 --> 01:07:54,680
Speaker 1: in the past few years from him and on the

1340
01:07:54,680 --> 01:07:57,240
Speaker 1: crossover tape and then watching him this year and kind

1341
01:07:57,240 --> 01:07:58,959
Speaker 1: of starts to bust through the games and get caught

1342
01:07:59,040 --> 01:08:02,040
Speaker 1: up is I continue to see him processing faster and faster,

1343
01:08:02,240 --> 01:08:04,240
Speaker 1: playing fast and playing from the pocket and getting the

1344
01:08:04,240 --> 01:08:05,840
Speaker 1: ball out of his hand and then he's got a

1345
01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:09,680
Speaker 1: unique ability to make plays and outside the pocket and

1346
01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:13,920
Speaker 1: in his discernment and how he does that is I

1347
01:08:13,960 --> 01:08:17,320
Speaker 1: think gets better every snapp he takes, and that's an

1348
01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:20,560
Speaker 1: encouraging thing for the Sexans. And to me, it's just

1349
01:08:21,400 --> 01:08:23,040
Speaker 1: like I said, like I told him, I mean, it's

1350
01:08:23,040 --> 01:08:25,280
Speaker 1: just whatever I can do to help, you know. But

1351
01:08:25,439 --> 01:08:27,719
Speaker 1: he's playing at a very high level. I thought about

1352
01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:29,960
Speaker 1: this as I was listening at clip right there from

1353
01:08:30,080 --> 01:08:33,000
Speaker 1: Josh McCown. A few years ago. He was with Sam Donald.

1354
01:08:33,040 --> 01:08:34,719
Speaker 1: I think when we went up there in twenty eighteen,

1355
01:08:35,200 --> 01:08:37,360
Speaker 1: and that was probably the best that Sam Donald played

1356
01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:40,400
Speaker 1: was when Josh McCown was up there. Last year, he's

1357
01:08:40,439 --> 01:08:43,439
Speaker 1: with Carson Wentz. Carson had a pretty good year in

1358
01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:46,679
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. He's falling off in twenty twenty. Sam Donald's

1359
01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:48,720
Speaker 1: falling off the last couple of years. Not saying that

1360
01:08:48,800 --> 01:08:51,960
Speaker 1: Josh McCown is absolutely the answer. And Deshaun Watson has

1361
01:08:51,960 --> 01:08:54,240
Speaker 1: played great before he got here and hopefully plays great after.

1362
01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:57,120
Speaker 1: But when you see that sort of track record of

1363
01:08:57,240 --> 01:09:00,640
Speaker 1: a guy in Josh McCown, that helps out younger quarterbacks,

1364
01:09:00,800 --> 01:09:02,880
Speaker 1: gets them playing a little bit better, helps them see

1365
01:09:02,920 --> 01:09:07,040
Speaker 1: different things it's kind of interesting, and I just I

1366
01:09:07,520 --> 01:09:09,600
Speaker 1: love it. I absolutely love Josh McCown being here. I

1367
01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:11,599
Speaker 1: think it's really cool. Another guy I love being here

1368
01:09:11,680 --> 01:09:16,320
Speaker 1: is Whitney Merciless. Now. Whitney unfortunately had to spend last

1369
01:09:16,360 --> 01:09:18,840
Speaker 1: week watching the game from his couch. That had to

1370
01:09:18,920 --> 01:09:22,680
Speaker 1: be a weird experience, and he said it was. It

1371
01:09:22,760 --> 01:09:24,640
Speaker 1: was different, you know, just taking a seat back, you know,

1372
01:09:24,720 --> 01:09:28,120
Speaker 1: being a you know, coach from the couch essentially, just saying,

1373
01:09:28,320 --> 01:09:30,479
Speaker 1: having a bird's eye view and all that, so being

1374
01:09:30,520 --> 01:09:33,040
Speaker 1: able to see, you know, whether it be a bad play,

1375
01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:36,040
Speaker 1: good play from the outside perspective versus being on the

1376
01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:39,679
Speaker 1: field and you know it's a play might break loose

1377
01:09:39,800 --> 01:09:42,160
Speaker 1: or ex play happens and it's just like, okay, what happened,

1378
01:09:42,160 --> 01:09:44,080
Speaker 1: but you get to see it actually from a third

1379
01:09:44,080 --> 01:09:46,200
Speaker 1: person point of view. I think about that a lot,

1380
01:09:46,680 --> 01:09:48,720
Speaker 1: Like if I were to get sick or injured or

1381
01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:50,799
Speaker 1: hurt or whatever the case might be, and I couldn't

1382
01:09:51,400 --> 01:09:53,880
Speaker 1: do do what I do, which is to be the

1383
01:09:53,880 --> 01:09:56,200
Speaker 1: silent reporter for the game on radio broadcast, First of all,

1384
01:09:56,240 --> 01:09:58,760
Speaker 1: I pull my hair out. But I've always thought about that,

1385
01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:00,760
Speaker 1: like what it would be to there and watch the

1386
01:10:00,840 --> 01:10:03,280
Speaker 1: game or have somebody else do the job that I

1387
01:10:03,400 --> 01:10:07,960
Speaker 1: do it will who drive me crazy? So I can understand, uh,

1388
01:10:08,080 --> 01:10:10,000
Speaker 1: you know what Whitney was thinking about. But he had

1389
01:10:10,000 --> 01:10:12,559
Speaker 1: a pretty good, pretty good perspective on it, I thought

1390
01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:16,400
Speaker 1: when he talked to the media about that. Now he

1391
01:10:16,560 --> 01:10:20,400
Speaker 1: also talked about having Josh McCown in the building, and

1392
01:10:20,960 --> 01:10:23,240
Speaker 1: this is it's a pretty good sound bite from wit

1393
01:10:23,960 --> 01:10:26,840
Speaker 1: about Josh McCown being here at the age of forty one. Yeah,

1394
01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:29,920
Speaker 1: I've been around for a long time, you know. Um,

1395
01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:32,160
Speaker 1: you know, they had a prehistoric essentially if you call

1396
01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:35,519
Speaker 1: it that, but uh, uh you know it was. It's

1397
01:10:35,560 --> 01:10:37,840
Speaker 1: it's also gonna happening in a building also to bring

1398
01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:40,000
Speaker 1: his wealth and knowledge as well too, uh to the

1399
01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:43,519
Speaker 1: line back I mean the quarterback room and all that.

1400
01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:45,840
Speaker 1: So it'd be interesting. They didn't get a chance to

1401
01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:47,439
Speaker 1: you know, talk to him or anything like that, but

1402
01:10:47,560 --> 01:10:50,479
Speaker 1: seeing McCawl around the league from his sad there are

1403
01:10:50,600 --> 01:10:52,960
Speaker 1: various stops and stuff like that, and how he's contributed

1404
01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:55,080
Speaker 1: as well too, So happy to have him. Yeah, no,

1405
01:10:55,160 --> 01:10:57,840
Speaker 1: not happy for Josh McCown to be here. And I

1406
01:10:57,880 --> 01:10:59,760
Speaker 1: think over the next how many ever weeks, people are

1407
01:10:59,800 --> 01:11:04,519
Speaker 1: going to feel the same way. But prehistoric boy man,

1408
01:11:04,600 --> 01:11:07,120
Speaker 1: that's tough for the forty somethings, which I am a

1409
01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:11,080
Speaker 1: little bit older forty something than Josh McCown, but very

1410
01:11:11,200 --> 01:11:14,120
Speaker 1: very cool to see Josh McCown in the building and

1411
01:11:14,640 --> 01:11:18,200
Speaker 1: great Texans audio jukebox. All right, we get back. I've

Speaker 1: with your kids. How do I get through to them?

1459
01:13:51,680 --> 01:13:55,000
Speaker 1: Especially with math younger kids in math, man, if you

1460
01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:56,920
Speaker 1: don't get them early on, if you can't get them

1461
01:13:57,320 --> 01:14:01,280
Speaker 1: interested in what you're doing, for get it. They're not

1462
01:14:01,360 --> 01:14:05,120
Speaker 1: listening to anything. And as they go further on in math,

1463
01:14:05,200 --> 01:14:08,640

1474
01:14:40,600 --> 01:14:42,720
Speaker 1: this Friday's edition of Texans All Access from How They

1475
01:14:43,080 --> 01:14:46,200
Speaker 1: How the Texans Radio studio do this every single week.

1476
01:14:47,439 --> 01:14:49,040
Speaker 1: I would like to know where my record is, but

1477
01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:52,080
Speaker 1: during football season, I have not an ounce of time

1478
01:14:52,120 --> 01:14:53,840
Speaker 1: to go back and listen to see how I did.

1479
01:14:53,880 --> 01:14:56,120
Speaker 1: So I'm just assuming that I'm in the ninety to

1480
01:14:56,160 --> 01:14:59,760
Speaker 1: one hundred percent range, because why wouldn't I be. I mean,

1481
01:15:00,360 --> 01:15:01,760
Speaker 1: I'm here. If I were in a ninety to one

1482
01:15:02,080 --> 01:15:03,880
Speaker 1: percent range, I just moved to Vegas and pick games

1483
01:15:03,880 --> 01:15:07,559
Speaker 1: all weekend and make mad chatter. But that's not the case.

1484
01:15:07,680 --> 01:15:09,479
Speaker 1: So I don't know what my record is. I don't

1485
01:15:09,520 --> 01:15:11,960
Speaker 1: go back and listen. I wish I did, just to

1486
01:15:12,000 --> 01:15:15,360
Speaker 1: see how I could do. But that said this, man,

1487
01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:17,679
Speaker 1: I'm telling the NFL it's hard to pick. It's very,

1488
01:15:17,800 --> 01:15:21,320
Speaker 1: very difficult to predict. But let's do it anyways, and

1489
01:15:21,320 --> 01:15:23,479
Speaker 1: it's a good way to talk about each and every

1490
01:15:23,479 --> 01:15:27,240
Speaker 1: one of these games taken on now the noon games

1491
01:15:27,400 --> 01:15:30,599
Speaker 1: on Sunday. Oh man, wait a second, hold up, hold up,

1492
01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:34,599
Speaker 1: get my music, get my music there it is. Okay,

1493
01:15:34,600 --> 01:15:37,360
Speaker 1: we're good. Got my music. Now it's time for picks.

1494
01:15:37,479 --> 01:15:41,439
Speaker 1: Here we go. First game out of the shoot Texans Browns.

1495
01:15:41,800 --> 01:15:43,240
Speaker 1: You know, I never picked that game. I don't go

1496
01:15:43,280 --> 01:15:44,960
Speaker 1: against my heart in my head. But Cleveland favorite by

1497
01:15:44,960 --> 01:15:46,439
Speaker 1: three and a half. That's gone up a little bit,

1498
01:15:46,640 --> 01:15:50,160
Speaker 1: so there must be getting some action going the other

1499
01:15:50,200 --> 01:15:54,040
Speaker 1: way to try and get things going in the right direction.

1500
01:15:54,080 --> 01:15:56,680
Speaker 1: So I want to pick Texans Browns. But Cleveland is

1501
01:15:56,680 --> 01:15:58,280
Speaker 1: a three and a half point favorite. That's gone up

1502
01:15:58,360 --> 01:16:01,120
Speaker 1: actually since this afternoon, like two or three hours. When

1503
01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:03,080
Speaker 1: I looked at this last it was three ounce three

1504
01:16:03,120 --> 01:16:04,880
Speaker 1: and a half. So we won't pick that one. You know.

1505
01:16:04,960 --> 01:16:07,519
Speaker 1: I feel Texas to win to cover and hopefully that happens.

1506
01:16:07,560 --> 01:16:12,479
Speaker 1: All right. Next nude game takes place in the Motor

1507
01:16:12,560 --> 01:16:17,639
Speaker 1: City in Detroit. Lions suffer ring last week. Oh, the

1508
01:16:17,760 --> 01:16:22,640
Speaker 1: Vikings ran all over them. Oh it was ugly. Washington.

1509
01:16:23,280 --> 01:16:25,800
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody expected them to be great. Even

1510
01:16:25,800 --> 01:16:29,440
Speaker 1: at two and six, they still have been really competitive

1511
01:16:29,439 --> 01:16:33,200
Speaker 1: in games. They've been physical, They're good defensively. They just

1512
01:16:33,240 --> 01:16:35,960
Speaker 1: haven't had all the pieces come together offensively. They've struggled

1513
01:16:35,960 --> 01:16:38,800
Speaker 1: at quarterback. toWin Haskins was in, he's out. Kyle Allen

1514
01:16:38,920 --> 01:16:40,720
Speaker 1: was in and he got hurt. Alex Smith came in

1515
01:16:40,920 --> 01:16:42,960
Speaker 1: last week through for a lot of yards. We also

1516
01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:45,400
Speaker 1: threw a lot of interceptions. So I'm gonna go Lions.

1517
01:16:45,479 --> 01:16:47,559
Speaker 1: Lions are favorite here about four and a half. That

1518
01:16:47,640 --> 01:16:49,280
Speaker 1: feels about right where it should be. It should be

1519
01:16:49,320 --> 01:16:51,160
Speaker 1: a three or four point win, So I'm gonna do this.

1520
01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:52,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give the Lions to win, but I think

1521
01:16:52,720 --> 01:16:54,760
Speaker 1: the Washington football teams can get under that four and

1522
01:16:54,760 --> 01:16:58,000
Speaker 1: a half. So I'm gonna take the points with Washington

1523
01:16:59,320 --> 01:17:02,760
Speaker 1: straight up. I'm picking Alliance to win. Jaguars are taking

1524
01:17:02,760 --> 01:17:06,840
Speaker 1: on the Packers. Oh boy, in Green Bay. Jake Luton

1525
01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:10,160
Speaker 1: gets a chance to face Zadarius Smith, Preston Smith, Sean

1526
01:17:10,240 --> 01:17:13,240
Speaker 1: Gary but it doesn't appear that JayR Alexander is gonna

1527
01:17:13,240 --> 01:17:16,360
Speaker 1: play for the Packers. That won't make a difference in

1528
01:17:16,400 --> 01:17:18,000
Speaker 1: the winner loss, but could it make a difference in

1529
01:17:18,040 --> 01:17:21,240
Speaker 1: the point spread? Thirteen and a half points. No Packers

1530
01:17:21,280 --> 01:17:25,040
Speaker 1: will win this by seventeen Packers win Packers cover. Packers

1531
01:17:25,040 --> 01:17:27,160
Speaker 1: moved to seven and two, and the Jags moved one

1532
01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:33,120
Speaker 1: step closer for Trevor Lawrence. Oh boy, all right, NFC

1533
01:17:33,240 --> 01:17:37,520
Speaker 1: East battle the leader in the NFC East, The Philadelphia

1534
01:17:37,640 --> 01:17:41,720
Speaker 1: Eagles are three four and one. They go to New

1535
01:17:41,800 --> 01:17:46,639
Speaker 1: York New Jersey to take on the New York Giants.

1536
01:17:46,720 --> 01:17:50,240
Speaker 1: Giants coming off win last week against WFT. The Eagles

1537
01:17:50,240 --> 01:17:52,719
Speaker 1: step in here at three four and one. But Carson

1538
01:17:52,760 --> 01:17:56,040
Speaker 1: Wentz has not played well this year. He's got some numbers,

1539
01:17:56,040 --> 01:17:59,760
Speaker 1: but he hasn't played extensively well. Now. His offensive line

1540
01:18:00,080 --> 01:18:02,640
Speaker 1: of him has been a revolving door. I mean there

1541
01:18:02,640 --> 01:18:06,639
Speaker 1: are guys in there. They had a big Milata, Daniel Milana,

1542
01:18:06,640 --> 01:18:09,000
Speaker 1: I can't remember the first name, but my Latta who

1543
01:18:09,160 --> 01:18:12,640
Speaker 1: played rugby and he's never played football before and they

1544
01:18:12,640 --> 01:18:14,479
Speaker 1: turn him into and offen to tackle that. That's what's

1545
01:18:14,479 --> 01:18:16,280
Speaker 1: protecting Carson Wentz by the way. My lotta is not

1546
01:18:16,320 --> 01:18:19,880
Speaker 1: that bad. But that's what's been protecting Carson Wentz. I

1547
01:18:19,920 --> 01:18:23,120
Speaker 1: think that's gonna be the difference in this one. I'm

1548
01:18:23,160 --> 01:18:25,960
Speaker 1: gonna go with the Giants. Oh my cars, I'm gonna

1549
01:18:25,960 --> 01:18:29,120
Speaker 1: go with the Giants to win this one. They're dog

1550
01:18:29,400 --> 01:18:33,040
Speaker 1: by four points at home. But I think Daniel Jones

1551
01:18:33,040 --> 01:18:35,280
Speaker 1: will have a little something. He needs to speed up

1552
01:18:35,320 --> 01:18:37,360
Speaker 1: his processing. He needs to be able to use all

1553
01:18:37,360 --> 01:18:39,799
Speaker 1: the receivers in the field. But I think the Giants

1554
01:18:39,800 --> 01:18:42,559
Speaker 1: are gonna scheme some things up against the Eagles, and

1555
01:18:42,600 --> 01:18:47,160
Speaker 1: they're gonna take this one in New Jersey over Philadelphia.

1556
01:18:47,160 --> 01:18:49,840
Speaker 1: So I'll take all four of those points and I

1557
01:18:49,840 --> 01:18:51,960
Speaker 1: will take the Giants straight up. All right, Let's move

1558
01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:59,320
Speaker 1: to AFC. Excuse me, NFC North Buccaneers Panthers. Panthers went

1559
01:18:59,439 --> 01:19:03,240
Speaker 1: toe to with the Kansas City Chiefs, and they dropped

1560
01:19:03,479 --> 01:19:07,120
Speaker 1: haymakers on each other all day long, and it came

1561
01:19:07,160 --> 01:19:10,760
Speaker 1: down to like a seventy something yard field goal or

1562
01:19:10,840 --> 01:19:14,439
Speaker 1: sixty seven yard field goal, and Joey sly pushed it

1563
01:19:14,479 --> 01:19:17,240
Speaker 1: to the right. But they lost to the Chiefs, to

1564
01:19:17,280 --> 01:19:20,920
Speaker 1: the Chiefs thirty four thirty three something of that magnitude.

1565
01:19:21,200 --> 01:19:23,320
Speaker 1: Now they're taking on the Bucks, and the Bucks got

1566
01:19:23,520 --> 01:19:27,040
Speaker 1: walloped last week by the New Orleans Saints. I think

1567
01:19:27,040 --> 01:19:29,879
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay bounce is back, and I think the Panthers

1568
01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:32,400
Speaker 1: are a really tough team to tangle with. Joe Brady

1569
01:19:32,439 --> 01:19:34,960
Speaker 1: has done a hack of a job with that offense's

1570
01:19:34,960 --> 01:19:39,080
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. But I don't think it'll be enough to win.

1571
01:19:40,240 --> 01:19:44,000
Speaker 1: I do think it'll be enough to cover the five

1572
01:19:44,080 --> 01:19:47,759
Speaker 1: and a half. So let's take the Buccaneers to bounce

1573
01:19:47,800 --> 01:19:51,080
Speaker 1: back and win, but in a close battle, I'm taking

1574
01:19:51,120 --> 01:19:53,360
Speaker 1: the Panthers to cover that five and a half. I

1575
01:19:53,439 --> 01:19:55,200
Speaker 1: just really think this is going to be a close game.

1576
01:19:55,439 --> 01:19:58,160
Speaker 1: Panther's record really, to me at three and six doesn't

1577
01:19:58,160 --> 01:20:01,040
Speaker 1: indicate the kind of team that they really are. Matt

1578
01:20:01,120 --> 01:20:04,840
Speaker 1: Rules had those guys playing really well all year long.

1579
01:20:05,160 --> 01:20:08,280
Speaker 1: All right, let's go out to the AFC West, where

1580
01:20:08,280 --> 01:20:12,000
Speaker 1: an old school rivalry, the Artists formerly known as the

1581
01:20:12,040 --> 01:20:16,040
Speaker 1: Oakland Raiders, now in Las Vegas, to visit from the

1582
01:20:16,120 --> 01:20:21,280
Speaker 1: Denver Broncos Man. These battles used to be awesome. I

1583
01:20:21,360 --> 01:20:25,439
Speaker 1: love AFC West battles Broncos and Raiders in Las Vegas.

1584
01:20:25,960 --> 01:20:29,400
Speaker 1: The Raiders are a four point favorite. The Raiders are up.

1585
01:20:29,400 --> 01:20:31,479
Speaker 1: The Raiders are down. The Raiders are up. The Raiders

1586
01:20:31,479 --> 01:20:35,080
Speaker 1: are down. The Broncos They've had too many injuries really

1587
01:20:35,120 --> 01:20:38,559
Speaker 1: to sustain anything. But the Broncos went to Atlanta last

1588
01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:41,400
Speaker 1: week and Atlanta put a hurting on them. I think

1589
01:20:41,400 --> 01:20:43,840
Speaker 1: the Raiders will do it again. The balance and Derek

1590
01:20:43,920 --> 01:20:47,320
Speaker 1: Carr throwing, with Josh Jacobs running the football, that's too

1591
01:20:47,400 --> 01:20:51,280
Speaker 1: much for the Broncos. Raiders win. Go to six and three.

1592
01:20:51,439 --> 01:20:54,240
Speaker 1: Now we don't want the Raiders to win. The Raiders

1593
01:20:54,240 --> 01:20:56,720
Speaker 1: will win this. They'll move to six and three. They

1594
01:20:56,720 --> 01:21:01,240
Speaker 1: will cover the four as well. Let's go Broncos, Chargers Dolphins,

1595
01:21:01,240 --> 01:21:05,400
Speaker 1: Oh boy, nineteen eighty one AFC Divisional Playoff route. What

1596
01:21:05,560 --> 01:21:08,200
Speaker 1: a game, one of the greatest games in NFL history,

1597
01:21:08,479 --> 01:21:11,680
Speaker 1: and it's back in Miami. However, they're not the San

1598
01:21:11,720 --> 01:21:15,320
Speaker 1: Diego Chargers anymore, and it's not the Orange Bowlder playing anymore.

1599
01:21:15,479 --> 01:21:18,080
Speaker 1: And Dan Marino had shown up take on Dan fouls.

1600
01:21:18,080 --> 01:21:22,040
Speaker 1: It's two h versus Herbert, two rookies drafted back to

1601
01:21:22,160 --> 01:21:25,920
Speaker 1: back in this draft. Going at it. Miami's at home

1602
01:21:26,080 --> 01:21:28,400
Speaker 1: only a one and a half point favorite, but I

1603
01:21:28,439 --> 01:21:30,759
Speaker 1: think Miami's gonna win this football game. They've been playing

1604
01:21:30,800 --> 01:21:33,840
Speaker 1: really good football. They knocked off Arizona, they knocked off

1605
01:21:33,840 --> 01:21:37,479
Speaker 1: the Rams. They're the NFC West champions basically, and the

1606
01:21:37,560 --> 01:21:39,640
Speaker 1: Dolphins are gonna win this game. And at one and

1607
01:21:39,640 --> 01:21:41,000
Speaker 1: a half, that's kind of a pick them. So I'm

1608
01:21:41,040 --> 01:21:43,000
Speaker 1: just gonna lay the points one and a half. The

1609
01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:46,240
Speaker 1: Dolphins will win and they're gonna cover over the Chargers.

1610
01:21:46,280 --> 01:21:49,320
Speaker 1: Chargers moving to two and seven of the year when

1611
01:21:49,320 --> 01:21:52,400
Speaker 1: they lose, Oh, I hate that for dan Lyn's dad,

1612
01:21:52,520 --> 01:21:55,880
Speaker 1: Anthony Lynn. Anthony Lynn, I think is really what coaching

1613
01:21:55,960 --> 01:21:57,479
Speaker 1: is all about. If you watch Hard Knocks, you know

1614
01:21:57,479 --> 01:22:00,519
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. I really really like Antony. I

1615
01:22:00,520 --> 01:22:04,519
Speaker 1: hope they I hope they keep him in a normal

1616
01:22:04,960 --> 01:22:08,479
Speaker 1: environment sort of year and guys can stay healthy. With Herbert,

1617
01:22:08,720 --> 01:22:10,360
Speaker 1: I think the Chargers could be an up and comer

1618
01:22:10,400 --> 01:22:14,080
Speaker 1: in the future, but not on Sunday. All right. That

1619
01:22:14,160 --> 01:22:16,840
Speaker 1: was a three h five game. Also is Broncos Raiders

1620
01:22:16,840 --> 01:22:19,240
Speaker 1: three oh five? Let's gets another three oh five game?

1621
01:22:19,520 --> 01:22:21,439
Speaker 1: Oh boy? And by three oh five, I mean three

1622
01:22:21,520 --> 01:22:26,200
Speaker 1: or five pm. The Buffalo Bills going to take on

1623
01:22:26,320 --> 01:22:31,400
Speaker 1: K one Kyler Murray, DeAndre Hopkins, Larry Fitzgerald and the

1624
01:22:31,479 --> 01:22:35,200
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals Cardinals right now five and three, the Bills

1625
01:22:35,200 --> 01:22:38,120
Speaker 1: seven to two, but coming off a big win at

1626
01:22:38,200 --> 01:22:42,479
Speaker 1: home over the Seattle Seahawks, and it was the offense

1627
01:22:42,560 --> 01:22:45,840
Speaker 1: that carried them in that game. And that's what makes

1628
01:22:45,880 --> 01:22:47,840
Speaker 1: me think the Bills are gonna win this thing. The

1629
01:22:47,880 --> 01:22:50,200
Speaker 1: Arizona is favored by two and a half, so essentially

1630
01:22:50,280 --> 01:22:53,160
Speaker 1: Vegas is saying the Bills are a little bit better

1631
01:22:53,200 --> 01:22:55,479
Speaker 1: than Cardinals on a neutral field, even though it's not

1632
01:22:55,520 --> 01:22:58,120
Speaker 1: a neutral field. I think the Cardinals will struggle to

1633
01:22:58,160 --> 01:23:00,760
Speaker 1: slow down Josh Allen in this offense, and then when

1634
01:23:00,800 --> 01:23:04,000
Speaker 1: they do have some modicum of success, the Bills will

1635
01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:06,320
Speaker 1: go back to running the football. And they don't do

1636
01:23:06,360 --> 01:23:08,680
Speaker 1: that exceptionally well, but they do it well enough, and

1637
01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:12,479
Speaker 1: those backs with mosson Singletary really get it going. I'm

1638
01:23:12,479 --> 01:23:15,240
Speaker 1: gonna go with the Bills, according to Vegas, in a

1639
01:23:15,280 --> 01:23:18,040
Speaker 1: mild upset to win, and obviously I'm taking those two

1640
01:23:18,040 --> 01:23:20,680
Speaker 1: and a half points. The Cardinals fall to five and

1641
01:23:20,720 --> 01:23:24,360
Speaker 1: four and the Bills moved to eight and two. Seahawks

1642
01:23:24,520 --> 01:23:28,120
Speaker 1: taking on the Rams NFC West battle, This is gonna

1643
01:23:28,160 --> 01:23:31,240
Speaker 1: be a good one. Seahawks six and two, Rams five

1644
01:23:31,320 --> 01:23:33,640
Speaker 1: and three. Now, if the Bills beat the Cardinals and

1645
01:23:33,720 --> 01:23:37,360
Speaker 1: Cardinals will stay in third place, they could be tied

1646
01:23:37,400 --> 01:23:39,720
Speaker 1: with the Rams. The Rams lose to the Seahawks, but

1647
01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:42,599
Speaker 1: the Planets Sofi Stadium, and the Rams are a point

1648
01:23:42,640 --> 01:23:46,280
Speaker 1: and a half favorite. But Seattle went to Buffalo last

1649
01:23:46,280 --> 01:23:50,880
Speaker 1: week and that defense was just ripped to shreds. I

1650
01:23:50,920 --> 01:23:52,840
Speaker 1: don't know if that happens two weeks in a row.

1651
01:23:53,439 --> 01:23:55,960
Speaker 1: And the Seahawks saw what the Dolphins did to the

1652
01:23:56,080 --> 01:23:59,200
Speaker 1: Rams a bunch of zero blitz and it really impacted

1653
01:23:59,320 --> 01:24:01,800
Speaker 1: Jared Goff. I think you're gonna see a lot of

1654
01:24:01,800 --> 01:24:03,559
Speaker 1: that from the Seahawks now. When they rolled the dice

1655
01:24:03,600 --> 01:24:07,000
Speaker 1: against the Bills and did that, they got burned. But

1656
01:24:07,160 --> 01:24:09,439
Speaker 1: can they do it against Jared Goff and the Rams.

1657
01:24:09,520 --> 01:24:13,280
Speaker 1: I think they can. I think the Seahawks win, So

1658
01:24:13,320 --> 01:24:15,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take I'm gonna take those one and a

1659
01:24:15,160 --> 01:24:17,920
Speaker 1: half points. I'm gonna take the Seahawks to win straight up.

1660
01:24:18,479 --> 01:24:22,560
Speaker 1: Road dogs wins and Seattle bounces back. Rams fall to

1661
01:24:22,600 --> 01:24:24,559
Speaker 1: five and four, tie with the Cardinals of five and

1662
01:24:24,600 --> 01:24:27,160
Speaker 1: four after this weekend, and the Seahawks moved to seven

1663
01:24:27,160 --> 01:24:30,920
Speaker 1: and two and separate by two games from those two teams.

1664
01:24:31,280 --> 01:24:34,639
Speaker 1: Forty nine Ers, also at Sea West, taken on the Saints.

1665
01:24:34,920 --> 01:24:38,880
Speaker 1: Forty nine ers at four and five. It's a near

1666
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:41,439
Speaker 1: miracle that they're four and five with all the injuries

1667
01:24:41,439 --> 01:24:44,120
Speaker 1: that the forty nine ers have had. Thank God for them.

1668
01:24:44,640 --> 01:24:46,280
Speaker 1: They got a chance to put the Giants of the

1669
01:24:46,360 --> 01:24:51,160
Speaker 1: Jets this year. But now they're playing the Saints. Saints

1670
01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:53,840
Speaker 1: or six and two in New Orleans is favored by

1671
01:24:53,960 --> 01:24:57,479
Speaker 1: nine and a half. I hate to do it through

1672
01:24:57,479 --> 01:25:00,000
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers because I really let Kyle Shannon

1673
01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:02,320
Speaker 1: hand and how he goes about his business, how he

1674
01:25:02,400 --> 01:25:05,160
Speaker 1: runs that offense. But I can't do it. The Saints

1675
01:25:05,160 --> 01:25:07,760
Speaker 1: got hot. The Saints beat them. You know what out

1676
01:25:07,760 --> 01:25:10,400
Speaker 1: of the Buccaneers last week. I'm taking Saints to win

1677
01:25:10,439 --> 01:25:13,839
Speaker 1: and Saints to cover. I'm going thirty one twenty one.

1678
01:25:14,479 --> 01:25:17,360
Speaker 1: Saints win this thing ten more than nine and a half.

1679
01:25:17,479 --> 01:25:21,320
Speaker 1: Saints win and Saints cover the nine and a half. Also,

1680
01:25:21,360 --> 01:25:23,839
Speaker 1: in an afternoon game, Joey Burrow takes on the Steelers

1681
01:25:23,880 --> 01:25:27,480
Speaker 1: for the first time. Yes, the Bengals go to Pittsburgh

1682
01:25:27,520 --> 01:25:30,760
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh eight. No. Had they come from behind win that one.

1683
01:25:30,920 --> 01:25:34,800
Speaker 1: Late at Dallas last week, but they did it. Pittsburgh's

1684
01:25:34,800 --> 01:25:36,360
Speaker 1: favored by only seven and a half. I thought that

1685
01:25:36,360 --> 01:25:39,240
Speaker 1: would have been more. I don't like to hook, but

1686
01:25:39,240 --> 01:25:41,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Pittsburgh to win and to cover against

1687
01:25:41,400 --> 01:25:43,880
Speaker 1: the Bengals. I think the Steelers are gonna show Joey

1688
01:25:43,880 --> 01:25:46,599
Speaker 1: Beason looks he hasn't seen. I think the game will

1689
01:25:46,640 --> 01:25:48,800
Speaker 1: speed up for him now. Joe's done a tremendous job

1690
01:25:48,840 --> 01:25:50,519
Speaker 1: all year long. He's gonna put up some numbers, but

1691
01:25:50,520 --> 01:25:54,599
Speaker 1: I think something might be kind of not garbage time,

1692
01:25:54,640 --> 01:25:56,880
Speaker 1: but maybe later in the second half he piles on

1693
01:25:56,960 --> 01:26:00,320
Speaker 1: some numbers because the Steelers just trying to stay at head,

1694
01:26:00,760 --> 01:26:03,519
Speaker 1: not prevent, but just trying to stay ahead. Steelers win,

1695
01:26:03,560 --> 01:26:05,880
Speaker 1: they can move to nine and oh Bengals fall and

1696
01:26:05,920 --> 01:26:08,400
Speaker 1: the Steelers cover that seven and a half. Sunday Night

1697
01:26:09,439 --> 01:26:14,439
Speaker 1: Ravens against the Patriots Last year in Baltimore, the Ravens

1698
01:26:14,479 --> 01:26:18,440
Speaker 1: embarrassed the Patriots on Sunday Night football. Does it reverse

1699
01:26:18,600 --> 01:26:20,720
Speaker 1: the other way to the Patriots embarrassed or no, The

1700
01:26:20,840 --> 01:26:22,760
Speaker 1: Ravens will win this thing. It's gonna be pretty fun, though,

1701
01:26:22,800 --> 01:26:24,240
Speaker 1: because I think there's been a lot of noise about

1702
01:26:24,280 --> 01:26:27,400
Speaker 1: the Ravens this week and knowing what plays are coming

1703
01:26:27,439 --> 01:26:30,920
Speaker 1: defenses No. Lamar Jackson talked about it. Zeus Brown talked

1704
01:26:30,960 --> 01:26:33,240
Speaker 1: about it. If anybody's gonna know what the Patriots you're

1705
01:26:33,240 --> 01:26:35,680
Speaker 1: gonna know. Here's the dumb thing. If you know what

1706
01:26:35,720 --> 01:26:39,160
Speaker 1: the plays are, you don't tell everybody, don't call it out.

1707
01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:41,640
Speaker 1: You gotta come up with something where you look at

1708
01:26:41,640 --> 01:26:43,160
Speaker 1: somebody to give the eye. And that's where you go.

1709
01:26:44,640 --> 01:26:46,960
Speaker 1: Patriots are gonna get inside that seven Baltimore wins. This

1710
01:26:47,040 --> 01:26:50,320
Speaker 1: is gonna be like nineteen sixteen something like that. Ravens

1711
01:26:50,360 --> 01:26:53,759
Speaker 1: to win, Patriots to cover. And then Monday night, Vikings Bears.

1712
01:26:54,680 --> 01:26:56,320
Speaker 1: I can't believe. We've gotta watch the Vikings and the

1713
01:26:56,320 --> 01:27:00,000
Speaker 1: parents again. Let's go Bears at home Minnies. How much

1714
01:27:00,000 --> 01:27:03,360
Speaker 1: as Minnesota's three and five, the Bears are five and four,

1715
01:27:03,400 --> 01:27:06,439
Speaker 1: Minnesota on the rotus favored by three. Let's go with

1716
01:27:06,479 --> 01:27:09,040
Speaker 1: the Bears in an upset then, so give you those three,

1717
01:27:09,160 --> 01:27:11,080
Speaker 1: give me the Bears to win. There you go, there

1718
01:27:11,120 --> 01:27:15,960
Speaker 1: your predictions straight up and against us spread. Coming up next,

1719
01:27:16,040 --> 01:27:18,920
Speaker 1: it's Drew Doherty with the final word. And this week

1720
01:27:19,000 --> 01:27:22,160
Speaker 1: it's Terrell Adams that's right here on Texans all Access.

1721
01:27:24,240 --> 01:27:27,679
Speaker 1: This is Whitney Merciless and you're listening to Texans Radio.

1722
01:27:28,280 --> 01:27:34,479
Speaker 1: Don't touch that dog. My name is Dean Grhan of

1723
01:27:34,520 --> 01:27:38,360
Speaker 1: Resude Oil. We were poised for significant growth in twenty twenty.

1724
01:27:38,600 --> 01:27:41,479
Speaker 1: When the pandemic hit. It stopped us in our tracks,

1725
01:27:41,680 --> 01:27:44,559
Speaker 1: derailed us. We spoke with Amazy right away because we

1726
01:27:44,640 --> 01:27:46,640
Speaker 1: believed that Amagy. We believe that they would come up

1727
01:27:46,640 --> 01:27:50,559
Speaker 1: with the best solution available. Without Amagy Bank, we would

1728
01:27:50,680 --> 01:27:53,559
Speaker 1: not be in business today. They make you feel let

1729
01:27:53,560 --> 01:27:56,439
Speaker 1: me make you feel important. We're an Amagy Bank customer

1730
01:27:56,439 --> 01:27:59,479
Speaker 1: for life. Amagy Bank the division of Science Bank Corporation

1731
01:27:59,560 --> 01:28:03,280
Speaker 1: name for FDIC, official business bank of the Houston Texans.

1732
01:28:04,120 --> 01:28:08,519
Speaker 1: Today tastes like game day at home, like a signed

1733
01:28:08,520 --> 01:28:13,200
Speaker 1: couch seating. It tastes like coffee, table dining, and an

1734
01:28:13,280 --> 01:28:17,360
Speaker 1: ice cold coke to cool down the heat. It tastes

1735
01:28:17,400 --> 01:28:20,200
Speaker 1: like the game you've waited for all week with friends

1736
01:28:20,200 --> 01:28:25,360
Speaker 1: you've known your whole life. Today tastes like watching football

1737
01:28:25,520 --> 01:28:31,160
Speaker 1: is supposed to and it never tasted this game. Coca

1738
01:28:31,200 --> 01:28:36,040
Speaker 1: Cola together taste better. What are the experts predicting about

1739
01:28:36,120 --> 01:28:40,280
Speaker 1: this week's big game? Extra Points? Saturday nights at ten

1740
01:28:40,439 --> 01:28:43,759
Speaker 1: thirty or after the late local news on ABC thirteen.

1741
01:28:44,560 --> 01:28:48,400
Speaker 1: Welcome back to a Friday edition of Texans All Access.

1742
01:28:48,720 --> 01:28:52,160
Speaker 1: It's our final segment of the show. Hopefully you stick

1743
01:28:52,160 --> 01:28:57,000
Speaker 1: around for Drew's final word this week. It's with a

1744
01:28:57,040 --> 01:29:00,760
Speaker 1: guy that has done some treme end this things for

1745
01:29:00,760 --> 01:29:05,599
Speaker 1: this defense the last four weeks. I think it's four weeks.

1746
01:29:05,600 --> 01:29:07,719
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think of the first game that Terrell

1747
01:29:07,840 --> 01:29:11,240
Speaker 1: Adams had to step in and take over for Brodrick McKinney,

1748
01:29:11,360 --> 01:29:14,439
Speaker 1: who was put on injury reserve dealing with I believe

1749
01:29:14,439 --> 01:29:16,519
Speaker 1: it was a shoulder that he had surgery on and

1750
01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:19,160
Speaker 1: Terrell had to step in said some good things. Last week,

1751
01:29:19,200 --> 01:29:23,960
Speaker 1: twelve tackles against the Jacksonville Jaguars had an interception in

1752
01:29:24,360 --> 01:29:28,280
Speaker 1: his hands. Oh, I guarantee you, guarantee you. This is

1753
01:29:28,280 --> 01:29:32,160
Speaker 1: how this thing works the mind. Charl Adams will be

1754
01:29:32,200 --> 01:29:35,559
Speaker 1: thinking about that dropped interception for the rest of his life.

1755
01:29:35,840 --> 01:29:38,040
Speaker 1: He'll be sitting down with his grandkids and he's like, now,

1756
01:29:38,080 --> 01:29:39,680
Speaker 1: I never tell you about that time that I had

1757
01:29:39,680 --> 01:29:41,400
Speaker 1: an interception in my hands and it couldn't have been

1758
01:29:41,439 --> 01:29:44,040
Speaker 1: a pick six. In fact, it probably should have been

1759
01:29:44,080 --> 01:29:46,640
Speaker 1: a pick six, but he plays a big role, and

1760
01:29:46,880 --> 01:29:52,280
Speaker 1: this week because of facing Kareem Hunt and also facing

1761
01:29:53,520 --> 01:29:56,080
Speaker 1: Nick Chubb, we'll find out more of this weekend, but

1762
01:29:56,160 --> 01:29:58,160
Speaker 1: my guess he's gonna play. So let's assume he's gonna

1763
01:29:58,160 --> 01:30:01,720
Speaker 1: play facing Nick Job and Kareem Hunt. Man Tribes has

1764
01:30:01,720 --> 01:30:04,479
Speaker 1: got to mind his peas and ques. He's got to

1765
01:30:04,520 --> 01:30:06,479
Speaker 1: have good eye discipline, he's got to read his keys,

1766
01:30:06,680 --> 01:30:10,280
Speaker 1: and then he's got to tackle like a monster. Play

1767
01:30:10,320 --> 01:30:12,559
Speaker 1: at twelve last week, he's a double digits. I think

1768
01:30:12,560 --> 01:30:15,920
Speaker 1: every game he's probably I think he's played Troll. Adams

1769
01:30:15,960 --> 01:30:18,760
Speaker 1: has been fantastic and he is with Drew Doherty for

1770
01:30:19,000 --> 01:30:23,759
Speaker 1: our final words. We've got linebacker Tyrell Adams joining us now, Tyrell,

1771
01:30:23,800 --> 01:30:25,880
Speaker 1: it's great to be with you, great to talk with you,

1772
01:30:26,040 --> 01:30:29,519
Speaker 1: Texans coming off a win over Jacksonville. Two part question, Hey,

1773
01:30:30,200 --> 01:30:33,160
Speaker 1: is there such thing as momentum in the NFL? And

1774
01:30:33,240 --> 01:30:35,559
Speaker 1: b if there is, do you guys have a little

1775
01:30:35,560 --> 01:30:37,479
Speaker 1: bit of it? And how do you keep it going? Definitely,

1776
01:30:37,520 --> 01:30:40,640
Speaker 1: it's definitely definitely momentum. Everybody knows that Man's it's a

1777
01:30:40,680 --> 01:30:42,479
Speaker 1: big thing in NFL. For sure. She's trying to get

1778
01:30:42,520 --> 01:30:44,280
Speaker 1: the first win and you're getting their confidence under you.

1779
01:30:44,520 --> 01:30:46,479
Speaker 1: The biggest thing is just keeping it going. He's kind

1780
01:30:46,520 --> 01:30:49,559
Speaker 1: of keeping the team Karnie up again, espasially in this

1781
01:30:49,600 --> 01:30:52,519
Speaker 1: time right now, November is which was a must win month.

1782
01:30:52,600 --> 01:30:55,840
Speaker 1: So reiterating that with guys and understanding what's his state

1783
01:30:55,880 --> 01:30:57,559
Speaker 1: now and just kind of keep going forward. I think

1784
01:30:57,560 --> 01:30:58,920
Speaker 1: that's the biggest thing. And we kind of know what's

1785
01:30:59,040 --> 01:31:01,040
Speaker 1: what's a stake to have a winning season and kind

1786
01:31:01,040 --> 01:31:03,439
Speaker 1: of furnish this thing out strong. So nothing as far

1787
01:31:03,479 --> 01:31:06,000
Speaker 1: for y'all reach, so hen keep working and seeing what happens. Yeah,

1788
01:31:06,040 --> 01:31:09,040
Speaker 1: there is still eight games to go as a matter

1789
01:31:09,040 --> 01:31:10,720
Speaker 1: of fact, and you guys are always going to be

1790
01:31:10,720 --> 01:31:12,519
Speaker 1: in the playoff fund when you have that much time

1791
01:31:12,560 --> 01:31:15,320
Speaker 1: in front of you. On a personal level, how do

1792
01:31:15,400 --> 01:31:18,040
Speaker 1: you think you've taken advantage of the opportunity? If you've

1793
01:31:18,040 --> 01:31:20,120
Speaker 1: gotten from the outside, looks great. I mean you've had

1794
01:31:20,160 --> 01:31:22,479
Speaker 1: double digit tackles and just about every game you've played,

1795
01:31:22,479 --> 01:31:24,680
Speaker 1: But what have you thought of your personal opportunity you've

1796
01:31:24,720 --> 01:31:28,160
Speaker 1: had so far? Me personally, man, I'm definitely like for

1797
01:31:28,240 --> 01:31:29,960
Speaker 1: me personally, hard on myself and I left a lot

1798
01:31:30,000 --> 01:31:31,400
Speaker 1: of players out there, a lot of players that could

1799
01:31:31,400 --> 01:31:32,760
Speaker 1: have put us in a better position as far as

1800
01:31:32,800 --> 01:31:34,920
Speaker 1: on the field as a team and everything. So those

1801
01:31:34,960 --> 01:31:36,439
Speaker 1: are plays that kind of like bother me the most.

1802
01:31:36,439 --> 01:31:38,439
Speaker 1: I think I think about the most. Of course, I

1803
01:31:38,520 --> 01:31:40,200
Speaker 1: played all right by Stills. I feel like there's a

1804
01:31:40,200 --> 01:31:42,280
Speaker 1: lot left on the table for myself to prove that

1805
01:31:42,320 --> 01:31:44,120
Speaker 1: these guys and these coaches around me just kind of

1806
01:31:44,120 --> 01:31:46,000
Speaker 1: like lift his team. I tell myself all the time

1807
01:31:46,080 --> 01:31:48,559
Speaker 1: just to kind of just be that, just keep working

1808
01:31:48,560 --> 01:31:51,000
Speaker 1: at just building that confidence within my teammates, kind of

1809
01:31:51,040 --> 01:31:52,960
Speaker 1: like keeping that faith in me as I'm out there

1810
01:31:52,960 --> 01:31:55,200
Speaker 1: and trying to perform for them. Honestly, it's not for myself,

1811
01:31:55,240 --> 01:31:56,800
Speaker 1: it's for them, and I really kind of take that

1812
01:31:56,880 --> 01:31:58,680
Speaker 1: the prize, just like making plays just to make them

1813
01:31:58,680 --> 01:32:01,320
Speaker 1: happy and make them enjoy little bit more. It's always

1814
01:32:01,400 --> 01:32:03,439
Speaker 1: enjoyable when you win. You're looking to do that against

1815
01:32:03,439 --> 01:32:06,000
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Brown's team. That and they can run the ball.

1816
01:32:06,080 --> 01:32:09,240
Speaker 1: Let's talk first about Kareem Hunt. He's been toting the

1817
01:32:09,320 --> 01:32:11,840
Speaker 1: rock the last five six games with Nick Chubb out,

1818
01:32:11,880 --> 01:32:15,120
Speaker 1: and he's been pretty effective also catching the ball. He's

1819
01:32:15,160 --> 01:32:17,840
Speaker 1: caught four touchdown passes. What have you thought of Hunt

1820
01:32:17,880 --> 01:32:19,880
Speaker 1: from what you've seen on tape in preparation for him.

1821
01:32:20,400 --> 01:32:22,120
Speaker 1: He's a talented guys has been kind of talented sins

1822
01:32:22,120 --> 01:32:24,240
Speaker 1: he's been in the league, extreme balance, a guy who's

1823
01:32:24,240 --> 01:32:26,400
Speaker 1: like knows how to keep falling for it, falls for

1824
01:32:26,560 --> 01:32:28,640
Speaker 1: for the xt JR. So I think the biggest thing

1825
01:32:28,640 --> 01:32:30,760
Speaker 1: he just us like the tackle whals you did last week,

1826
01:32:31,160 --> 01:32:34,240
Speaker 1: kind of no mistackles, make sure he's tackling physical, kind

1827
01:32:34,240 --> 01:32:36,519
Speaker 1: of trying to try to make ourselves a beating, just

1828
01:32:36,600 --> 01:32:38,120
Speaker 1: living up to the test. I like to test a

1829
01:32:38,160 --> 01:32:40,479
Speaker 1: good running back against a defense that wants to stop

1830
01:32:40,479 --> 01:32:43,160
Speaker 1: the run. So we're interested to stop the interested in

1831
01:32:43,240 --> 01:32:45,439
Speaker 1: the challenge and ready up for it. So yeah, he's

1832
01:32:45,479 --> 01:32:48,160
Speaker 1: one component of that challenge and sounds like looks like

1833
01:32:48,320 --> 01:32:50,519
Speaker 1: Chubb is going to be the other component who is

1834
01:32:50,600 --> 01:32:52,719
Speaker 1: likely going to play if you do see him. How's

1835
01:32:52,760 --> 01:32:54,800
Speaker 1: he compared with what you see from hunt. Chub's a

1836
01:32:54,840 --> 01:32:57,120
Speaker 1: natural runner. He wants to run the ball downhill. The

1837
01:32:57,160 --> 01:32:59,000
Speaker 1: physical guy. He loves to run a ball, which we

1838
01:32:59,120 --> 01:33:01,720
Speaker 1: like to see. So honestly, is again I just like

1839
01:33:01,800 --> 01:33:04,080
Speaker 1: challenges ahead of us kind of too good back. Two

1840
01:33:04,080 --> 01:33:07,519
Speaker 1: studs at running back, and there's a chance for us

1841
01:33:07,560 --> 01:33:09,280
Speaker 1: to prove our defense that we can stop the run

1842
01:33:09,520 --> 01:33:12,680
Speaker 1: and leading the charge for them at quarterback is Baker Mayfield.

1843
01:33:12,960 --> 01:33:15,240
Speaker 1: He's been around for a few years now, still a

1844
01:33:15,320 --> 01:33:18,160
Speaker 1: young quarterback, but it seems like he's been sort of

1845
01:33:18,160 --> 01:33:20,640
Speaker 1: hot and cold at times to year, which happens. What

1846
01:33:20,680 --> 01:33:22,880
Speaker 1: are your thoughts on Baker Mayfield? What can he do

1847
01:33:23,000 --> 01:33:25,960
Speaker 1: and what's the challenge he presents for you guys. Again,

1848
01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:28,640
Speaker 1: he's a talented quarterback. He has a strong arm and

1849
01:33:28,680 --> 01:33:31,439
Speaker 1: throw the ball, doesn't mind taking it down, getting get

1850
01:33:31,439 --> 01:33:33,960
Speaker 1: ready to run, running the boots and everything. So just

1851
01:33:34,040 --> 01:33:36,120
Speaker 1: be prepared for that, just knowing he's a talented guy.

1852
01:33:36,439 --> 01:33:38,160
Speaker 1: So for us, we just make sure we're being on

1853
01:33:38,160 --> 01:33:40,280
Speaker 1: our p's and q's, having good eyes, being able to

1854
01:33:40,320 --> 01:33:43,160
Speaker 1: effect this effect, affect the past game while also being

1855
01:33:43,160 --> 01:33:44,960
Speaker 1: mindful that he will take the ball on the scrub.

1856
01:33:45,520 --> 01:33:48,360
Speaker 1: All right, have you played in Cleveland before? No, it's

1857
01:33:48,360 --> 01:33:50,360
Speaker 1: about first time playing up there. All right, it's gonna

1858
01:33:50,360 --> 01:33:52,320
Speaker 1: be an interesting one. Well, best of luck to you,
