21
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,680
Speaker 4: Big one this week with Denver. We'll talk about that,

22
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,119
Speaker 4: but can you review the San Francisco game a little

23
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 4: bit for us?

24
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 5: Nick, Yeah, played the game and we wanted to play,

25
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 5: I mean, Johnny and I talked a little bit for

26
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 5: the game, and some of the keys that we thought

27
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 5: were we felt were important and those kind of came

28
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 5: to fruition.

29
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 2: Ran the ball.

30
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 5: We were able to get some positive runs, had very

31
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 5: few negative runs, did a good job in a passing game.

32
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 5: And then defensively, you talked about the running game and

33
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 5: talked about having awareness of Christian you know, basically on

34
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 5: every play, and we were able to kind of mitigate

35
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 5: some of the runs. They made a few explosive plays

36
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 5: there in a passing game, you know, in a kicking game.

37
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 5: We were able to kind of hold serve more than

38
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 5: anything else. So took advantage of our opportunities. Played good football. Honestly,

39
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 5: there's still meat on the bone. You know, there's some

40
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 5: things we can certainly clean up. Gave up a few

41
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 5: explosive plays and one to five in the red area.

42
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 5: So there's things that we can improve that we can

43
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 5: build on. But anytime you're doing it off of victory,

44
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 5: you know, it's you know, put you in a better spot.

45
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 1: Nick, whenever anybody talks about beating playing the forty nine ers,

46
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 1: you mentioned it.

47
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 4: Christian McCaffrey pops up.

48
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: I felt like there were a lot of things that

49
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: went into slowing him down and keeping him under his

50
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: marks and really just limiting his impact in your opinion,

51
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 1: what were the keys to being able to do that?

52
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, the front they're a really good job. In the

53
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 5: running game, we really didn'tive him a lot of space.

54
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 5: They really couldn't get the ball to the edge. So

55
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 5: the defensive ends that are a good job of set

56
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 5: in the edge, forcing the ball back to the inside,

57
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 5: and then the inside. We played with good positioning, good technique,

58
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 5: and we're stout. He made some plays in the passing game,

59
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 5: which he's almost a receiver. He got in the space

60
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 5: a few times. Tackling was important.

61
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 2: You're not going to.

62
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 5: Totally limit the player of that caliber over the course

63
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,679
Speaker 5: of a game, but we didn't prevent it from becoming

64
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,359
Speaker 5: such a huge part of the game where it kind

65
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 5: of got out of hand.

66
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 2: So it was a collective effort.

67
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,399
Speaker 5: Defense is about all eleven kind of doing the right thing,

68
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 5: and that was a big part of it.

69
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 2: Would say that the.

70
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 4: End result offensively, no sacks allowed. What went into that.

71
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 5: Nick, Yeah, I mean the offensive line did a really

72
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 5: good job, so I think we had a good understanding

73
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 5: of kind of the front where the issues weren't protection,

74
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 5: they pressured us. I mean we saw multiple blitzes and

75
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 5: we were able to handle those those blitzes. Whether it

76
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 5: was the front, the running backs were part of that

77
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 5: as well. Daria had a number of really good third

78
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 5: down blitz pick up and really you're just trying to

79
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 5: make sure that you just have enough time to kind

80
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,959
Speaker 5: of get the ball out of your hand. You're always

81
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,919
Speaker 5: gonna have throws where the quarterback is going to be

82
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 5: under the rest, You're gonna have to play from a

83
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 5: little bit of a muddy or dirty pocket. But I

84
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 5: mean anytime that you can keep the quarterback clean and

85
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 5: the ball comes out on time and you know where

86
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 5: to go with the football, then it leads to positive plays.

87
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 5: So it's a collective effort. Everybody's involved in that. The

88
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 5: offensive lines involved, the quarterbacks involved, the running backs are involved,

89
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 5: the tight ends are involved. You know, Fishers a tight

90
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 5: end even though he's an offensive lineman, but that was

91
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 5: a part.

92
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 2: I mean he played.

93
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 5: I don't know how many snaps is the jumbo tight end.

94
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 5: So I mean overall, I mean that's what good offense

95
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 5: looks like. Like we talked about, I mean we still

96
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 5: can improve. I mean one to five in the red area.

97
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 5: Those are scoring opportunities and scoring plays, and if we

98
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 5: can put the ball in the end zone a little bit,

99
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 5: then you might even see a bigger point differential.

100
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: One of the first things I asked you, Nick, it

101
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: might have been the first thing that there was no Nico,

102
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: there was no Christian. So now you've got wide receivers

103
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 1: that you know, number of rookies, a bunch of cyclones,

104
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: Braxton Barrios who had not had a lot of game action,

105
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 1: and yet those guys stepped up. Number of them had

106
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 1: five catches if you've met four. Were your thoughts about

107
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,239
Speaker 1: how the receiver stepped up in the void of Kirk

108
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:28,799
Speaker 1: in Collins.

109
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean they did an outstanding job. I mean

110
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 5: everybody was very confident going into the game. So those

111
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 5: are all good football players. And called jareded up from.

112
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:37,159
Speaker 2: The practice squad.

113
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 5: He's been in our program for a number of years.

114
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 5: So honestly, nobody blinked an eye. The offensive staff did

115
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 5: a great job. Ben McDaniels does a great job with

116
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,119
Speaker 5: that group. Overall, they were prepared, they were ready to play.

117
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 5: They've all made plays when they were given opportunities. I

118
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 5: mean nobody's made more plays and done more to put

119
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:54,599
Speaker 5: himself in a position to make plays, and hutch has

120
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,280
Speaker 5: over the course of his career. I mean he's the

121
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 5: ultimate embody man of what a Houston text and football

122
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 5: players should look like. Selflessness, his attitude, his work ethic,

123
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 5: and his willingness to improve and get better. I mean

124
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 5: he's on pace to have a career year and it's

125
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 5: a result of just his ability to work, focus, take

126
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 5: advantage of his opportunities and put himself in a position

127
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 5: and then players around him have confidence. So I don't

128
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 5: think anybody's really surprised about the outcome and a result.

129
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 5: I mean, there are nine skilled players. I think that

130
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,840
Speaker 5: each had one reception, so good distribution in the overall

131
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 5: passing games. So whoever's on the field, like, we feel

132
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 5: confident in their ability to make place.

133
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,559
Speaker 4: Nick, do you feel like it's different from the time

134
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 4: you entered the league to now as far as waiting

135
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,279
Speaker 4: for rookies to contribute and develop, you need them now

136
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 4: earlier than ever.

137
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 2: It's a great question mark.

138
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 5: I think everybody's appetite and propensity for younger players from

139
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 5: a staff standpoint, and it's always a little bit touch

140
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 5: and go. But if those are your best players, you're

141
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 5: gonna have to live with some ups and downs. Young

142
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,479
Speaker 5: players are gonna make some mistakes. There's gonna be things

143
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 5: that pop up that they haven't seen before, they haven't

144
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 5: dealt with. But if you have confidence and you can

145
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 5: just work through some of the growing pains, I mean,

146
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 5: that's what this.

147
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 2: League is about.

148
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 5: So good football players come in all different shapes and sizes.

149
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 5: They're young players, they're older players, but we have no

150
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 5: opposition to playing younger players if they're the best players.

151
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 5: It starts with Demiko in his mindset, and we put

152
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 5: a lot of time and investment into trying to identify

153
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 5: players that we draft because we think they're a good fit.

154
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 5: Not every player works out the way that we hope,

155
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 5: but the more young players we can. This league is

156
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,599
Speaker 5: about younger players. There's a draft every year for a reason,

157
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 5: so you're going to have new players come on to

158
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:36,279
Speaker 5: the team. So your responsibility as an organization is to

159
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 5: try to develop them as as quickly as possible. When

160
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 5: they're ready to play, they're ready to play. The time

161
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 5: table is different for every player, but I think to

162
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 5: your point, you look around the league, there's a lot

163
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,359
Speaker 5: of young players that are making significant contributions, and it

164
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 5: goes back to college. They're playing more football, so they're

165
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 5: more prepared. I mean, we'll talk about Bo here in

166
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 5: a minute, but both played like four thousand games in

167
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 5: college as much as anybody, so he's been able to

168
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 5: make the transition to an fell football. So there's certainly

169
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 5: a direct correlation when you talk about young players, drafted

170
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 5: players and then making an impact, maybe earlier than people expect.

171
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: A young player that seemingly has gotten better from the

172
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: minute he set foot here in twenty twenty four till now.

173
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: Nick And because his opposite number is a pro bowler,

174
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 1: he's an All Pro and Derek Stingley junior, maybe Kamari

175
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 1: doesn't get the respect nationally, maybe that he deserves. But

176
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 1: it feels like Kamari just plays the next play better

177
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 1: than he played the one before.

178
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 4: What do you see from Kamari in just two years here?

179
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, he should get the respect because he's earned it.

180
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 4: Yep.

181
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,119
Speaker 5: I mean this was a player like we absolutely loved

182
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 5: coming out of Georgia, and I think there was well

183
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 5: maybe not fast enough, maybe not big enough, but the

184
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 5: bottom line is this guy's a football player and he

185
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 5: like when you go back and talk to Kirby about

186
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 5: their program and the mindset and the mentality, how they

187
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 5: play and how they practice.

188
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 2: I mean this was the guy.

189
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 4: Yeah.

190
00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 5: I mean there was like no ifans or butts about it, right,

191
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 5: and here's a player. I think they played the bowl

192
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 5: game against Florida State or whoever it was. I mean,

193
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 5: he could have shut it down and very easily said

194
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 5: I'm not playing, but like he kind of said screw that,

195
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 5: like I'm playing football. And because that's how he operates,

196
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 5: that's his mentality. I mean, I think he leads us

197
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 5: in tackles, I mean, or he's closed. I mean, how

198
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 5: many corners lead their team in tackles And it's not

199
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 5: that it's tackling a bunch of players fifty yards down

200
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 5: the field. He's as big a part of the run

201
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 5: force as anybody. So, I mean, we love everything Kamari

202
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 5: Laster is all about. We're fortunate. We feel like we

203
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 5: have two pretty good corners that we put out there.

204
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 5: On the field every Sunday and he continues to get better.

205
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 5: He doesn't say squad and he just shows up and work,

206
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 5: which is a lot of like we have a lot

207
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 5: of players like that in this program.

208
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm not a stat heead, but there is a

209
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 4: stat You're number one in defense in points per game

210
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 4: allowed and yards per game. So that's pretty good, number

211
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 4: one in both those categories. Is there a category that's

212
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 4: more important than the other or is there another one

213
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 4: you'd like to look at? For defense? How do you

214
00:08:59,320 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 4: see it? Nick?

215
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:04,440
Speaker 5: This game, this leads all about points, So can you defend?

216
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 5: Can you limit the points? And then can you score

217
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 5: enough points on the offensive side of the football. So

218
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 5: any end winnings are usually about points. So if you

219
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 5: can keep the other team off the scoreboard, limit it,

220
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,960
Speaker 5: and then you can score enough points, more points than

221
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 5: the other team. I would say in the end, that's

222
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,680
Speaker 5: probably one of the more important stats. And the areas

223
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,839
Speaker 5: that correlate to that you probably go to red zone,

224
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 5: offense and or defense, and those are areas we can

225
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 5: actually improve on both sides of the ball.

226
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 2: So there's always room for improvement. But in the end,

227
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 2: it's all about points.

228
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 4: Okay.

229
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 1: So I'm not gonna tell you this to give you

230
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 1: a big head or anything. But when I go on

231
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,319
Speaker 1: the road, I talk to people from other teams, They're like.

232
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,719
Speaker 4: Hey, man, I saw that segment you did with Nikossario

233
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 4: or he does the start on report. Man, that's p pressive.

234
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 4: So I have two parter for you.

235
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: Number one, Could you do that for every team in

236
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 1: the league, even if we weren't playing them?

237
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 2: Probably if I had enough time just to study.

238
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 5: I think my process is what I try to do

239
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,679
Speaker 5: is learn and understand as much about our opponents specifically,

240
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 5: but when you're watching an opponent, our opponent, you're doing

241
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 5: some crossover as well, so another player might pop up,

242
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 5: or if there was a player on waiver wires, or

243
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 5: as we get close to the trade deadline, you have

244
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:16,439
Speaker 5: some level of awareness.

245
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 2: I mean hopefully, I mean.

246
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,559
Speaker 5: Probably take a little bit of work, yeah, but may

247
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 5: not think if it had a day or two to

248
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 5: go through it, you know, I probably would be able

249
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 5: to hopefully talk in an educated fashion. That's subject to opinion, probably,

250
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 5: but talking in educated fashion about you know, as many

251
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 5: teams as possible, I.

252
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,439
Speaker 1: Figured you could. I figured that was the answer to it.

253
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 1: So let's get to the second part. We do play

254
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 1: the Broncos. Good football team, maybe Pat or Tan in

255
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: and out, we don't know, don't know what's going to

256
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,720
Speaker 1: happen with that, but it's a good football team coming

257
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 1: here Sunday, Nick, what's the Scotty reporting in Broncos.

258
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, great football team and this is year I think

259
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,679
Speaker 5: he's year three for coach Bayden and his program. I mean,

260
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,439
Speaker 5: Coach Payton is one of the best coaches in the league.

261
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 5: And you know the way they put the team together,

262
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 5: I mean great ownership group. You know, Shawn's come in

263
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,319
Speaker 5: and kind of built a program in his image, and

264
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 5: you know, George Payton's been there for a little bit.

265
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 5: George is a very well respected executive in this league.

266
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 5: So George is a great evaluator of talent. So good

267
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 5: coaching staff, I mean good coordinators. I mean Sean calls

268
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 5: the plays, but they have a number of coaches that

269
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 5: were with him in New Orleans. Joel Lombardes with him,

270
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 5: Davis Webb quarterback coach, has some experience there. And then

271
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 5: a defensive side of the ball, Vance has been as

272
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 5: good a defensive coordinator is in the league. And then

273
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 5: they hired Darren Rizzy as a special teams coordinator. I

274
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 5: mean you could put Darren up there, you know, the top. However,

275
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,199
Speaker 5: many special teams coaches in the league, and he's been

276
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 5: doing it for a number of years. So good ownership group,

277
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 5: good coaching staff, and they got a good football team,

278
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 5: I mean top to bottom. I mean this is you know,

279
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 5: probably a good a football team that you know we're

280
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 5: going to face. I mean offensively, Bo's come in and

281
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 5: you know.

282
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 2: Played really well right away.

283
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 5: You know, played a lot of football, Like we talked about, smart, accurate,

284
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 5: good decision maker, and they do a good job in

285
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,719
Speaker 5: a passing game a mix and the launch point, mix

286
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 5: and the timing. And there's a reason that he hadn't

287
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 5: been sacked that much because they do a good job

288
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 5: of get them all out on time or structure and

289
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 5: some things. And bow knows where we go with the football.

290
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,839
Speaker 5: So I mean good quarterback. I mean the two running

291
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:07,439
Speaker 5: backs have done a really good job. And there third

292
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 5: in the league and rushing as a team, JK I

293
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,079
Speaker 5: want to say, is like third in the league, you know,

294
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 5: and when JK has been healthy, he's been as productive

295
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 5: of back as there's in the league. Drafted Harvey there

296
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 5: in a second or third round, and he's given them

297
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 5: some positive plays. So two good backs, and then they

298
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 5: have a really interesting compliment of receivers. They're not the same,

299
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 5: they're all kind of different, but they all kind of

300
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,559
Speaker 5: make contributions. From Sutton Sherfield has his role in the

301
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,080
Speaker 5: drafted Pat Bryan the third round gives them some size.

302
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,200
Speaker 5: Franklin is kind of a unique player. Mims is kind

303
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 5: of in his own category which he impacts the kicking

304
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 5: game with his he's a Pro Bowl basically returner. So

305
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 5: and they use all their receivers. So good compliment of

306
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,680
Speaker 5: skilled players. Tight ends Ingram kind of a little bit

307
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 5: more of a passing game player, Troutman a little bit

308
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 5: more in a running game. They make some jumbo and

309
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 5: any offensive line, it's kind of been the five that

310
00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 5: they've had from the beginning. They've had a shuffle to

311
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 5: left guard. They're a little bit it, you know, a big, strong,

312
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 5: physical offensive line. Then defense, I mean top to bottom,

313
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 5: I mean all three levels of the defense. I mean

314
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 5: they got premium players, two good edge players. I mean

315
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 5: Benito got a contract extension here right, you know, training

316
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 5: camp in the off season, so Lee's the league in

317
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 5: sacks or is among the lead leaders in sacks. I

318
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 5: think Cooper's probably not talked about as much as they

319
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 5: should because he's a damn good football player on the

320
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 5: other side.

321
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 2: So two good edge players on the inside. You know,

322
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 2: DJ Jones, Roach has giving him some snaps.

323
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,320
Speaker 5: I mean, Zach Allen's probably as versatile kind of a

324
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 5: two way player as anybody in the league. Singleton, you know,

325
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 5: averages six hundred tackles a year, so I mean he's

326
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 5: a high volume tackler, very tough, very instinctive. Signed Greenlaw

327
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,079
Speaker 5: in the offseason, you know, and Dre's healthy. He's one

328
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 5: of the better linebackers in the league. In the secondary.

329
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 5: I mean, you talk about the defensive player of the year,

330
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 5: I mean if he plays or doesn't play, but you

331
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 5: got to count for him. Defensive player of the Year.

332
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,719
Speaker 5: Got good contributions from Moss on the other side, the

333
00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 5: nickel position.

334
00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 2: They drafted Baron in the first round.

335
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 5: McMillan's kind of been able to stave them off here

336
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 5: a little bit, and he's Barren and Dime and then

337
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 5: sign Hufanga, you know, to kind of give them a

338
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 5: compliment to Jones at safety, so I mean, top to bottom,

339
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 5: this is a really good football team, good staff, good scheme,

340
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 5: but certainly present some challenges. They've been one of the

341
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 5: better teams in a fourth quarter scoring margin, so you

342
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 5: know this game is going to be about just understanding

343
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 5: the opponent and then playing the right way, and.

344
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 2: If we execute, we'll at least give ourselves a shot.

345
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 4: All right. So you mentioned the New Orleans carryover with

346
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 4: some of the staff. Nick. If I put on the

347
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 4: tape from New Orleans fifteen years ago, I know it's

348
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 4: Drew Brees Hall of Famer, but how similar is it

349
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 4: to that?

350
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 2: Similar? Different?

351
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 5: They've kind of done some things that kind of accentuate

352
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 5: some of the things that BO does.

353
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 2: Well, you probably see a little bit more. I would

354
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 2: say movement of the.

355
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 5: Pocket or plays outside of the pocket. I mean Drew

356
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 5: played primarily from the pocket. I mean Drew is with

357
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 5: smart quarterbacks, you know, probably in the league, I mean him,

358
00:14:56,360 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 5: Tom and Peyton, just from the ability to process the

359
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 5: ball out on time, nowhere to go with the football.

360
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 2: BO is a little bit more athletic probably than Drew was.

361
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 5: So they've done some things to kind of fit what

362
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 5: BO does. But there are some similarities as well from

363
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 5: any awareness instinctiveness kind of operate in a system at

364
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 5: a pretty high level on which Bo did as a rookie,

365
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 5: and then he's kind of built on that into his

366
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 5: second year. So you see some elements, but they've kind

367
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 5: of catered it to the Denver Broncos and the personnel

368
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 5: that they have on their team.

369
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 1: Defensively, you mentioned Cooper, who that dude's a monster, and

370
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 1: then Benito, and they're different.

371
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 4: They seem to compliment each other pretty well.

372
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 1: At Cooper maybe it's a little bit more power to

373
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 1: where Benito has got the twitch and the bend and

374
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff. And you mentioned earlier talking

375
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: about the game and the protection and using Blake Fisher

376
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: as a sixth offensive lineman. Is that effective against a

377
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: couple of rushers like this that you can use Blake

378
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 1: in that capacity because he is used to more pass

379
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 1: protection against those guys as opposed to a tight end.

380
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, wherever you're aligned, so whether it's a tackler or

381
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 5: tight end, you're probably blocking similar types of players. So

382
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 5: you're going to look at the matchup, what makes the

383
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 5: most sense, what are we trying to accomplish on the play,

384
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 5: And then in the end, someone's gonna have to account

385
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 5: for them or block them. Typically you're probably not going

386
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 5: to have a running back account for players like that,

387
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 5: so you have to figure out how do we want

388
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 5: to distribute the blockers. But they present problems. I mean,

389
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 5: Benito basically can beat anybody on a pass rush, and

390
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 5: Nan Cooper, I mean, is equally as productive. They kind

391
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 5: of compliment each other, and they basically have five down

392
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 5: in every play, So you essentially have a one out

393
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 5: one across the board. So how are you going to

394
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 5: handle it, what's the best way to do it? Who's

395
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 5: going to be blocking them? You just have to be

396
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 5: conscious and aware as you're building the game plan out.

397
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 1: I was thinking about this with Blake driving today, and

398
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 1: you would know this better than anybody because in the

399
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 1: playoff game when you were with the Patriots that you

400
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 1: guys had against the Ravens where you were declaring Ridley

401
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 1: I think it was Ridley or Verreen one of them ineligible,

402
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 1: And I know they changed the rule after that. But

403
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 1: if Blake goes in the game and he's got to declare, obviously,

404
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: can you leave Blake in the game and then switch

405
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 1: and put him at tackle and somebody else that was

406
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 1: in the game and let them declare.

407
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 4: Can you want that? I want a layer on that?

408
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 4: And this might be a stupid question. Why does he

409
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 4: have to report at all? Nick, he's a tight end

410
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,159
Speaker 4: when he comes and he's lining up next to one

411
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 4: of the tackles. Unless something's different in the configuration up front,

412
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 4: why have to report you?

413
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 5: Why not try to help the defense as much as

414
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 5: possible so they know who the eligible receivers are. Look,

415
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,640
Speaker 5: the rules are the rules, So it's more of like

416
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 5: everybody having an awareness of who's eligible who's not right. So, honestly,

417
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 5: for the officiating perspective as well, fromation alignment. You see

418
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 5: this in college football all the time. There's a lot

419
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 5: of times it's four x one, four x zero. It's

420
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 5: an unbalanced formation. Right, who's online of scrimmage, who's off,

421
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:49,439
Speaker 5: who's eligible? The playoff game that you're alluding to, you

422
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 5: know the rules at the time with a rule, So,

423
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,640
Speaker 5: I mean, we didn't do anything that was.

424
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 4: Against the right, right exactly.

425
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 5: It was more of how we deployed the players, and

426
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,919
Speaker 5: then you have to account for who's eligible, where they

427
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 5: are aligned, who can actually get the ball. Look, you

428
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,159
Speaker 5: can have however, many eligible players on each play, so

429
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,439
Speaker 5: part of that is just the rules and the process. So,

430
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 5: I mean a lot of teams, are you. I mean

431
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,439
Speaker 5: Sean has done it at lunch, He's used jumbo. You

432
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 5: see a number of teams kind of using the jumbo situation.

433
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 5: It's really a way to kind of compliment your tight

434
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:20,920
Speaker 5: end and or your overall group.

435
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,680
Speaker 4: Sure, Nick, these days with the trade deadline a little

436
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 4: bit later, we're used to that by now. But how

437
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 4: has that changed how active your phone might be this

438
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 4: time of year?

439
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, I would say it probably over the last week

440
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 5: or two, there's probably you feel in a few more calls.

441
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 2: I don't want to say, we've talked to just about everybody.

442
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 5: In the league, and you're really in the end, all right,

443
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 5: who's realistically available?

444
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 2: What's the cost associated with it?

445
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 5: Because I think sometimes there's reports, oh so and so

446
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,439
Speaker 5: is available, and then you might call and say, hey,

447
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 5: just following up, and it'll be like, now that's kind

448
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 5: of a garbage report. It's like, okay, no problem. At

449
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 5: least you have more accurate information. So, all right, who's

450
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 5: realistically available? What are your needs? What do you look

451
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 5: looking for? Is there a match? So we'll see what

452
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 5: happens here at the trade deadline. But we've made a

453
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 5: number of calls. I would say, if anything comes to fruition,

454
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 5: it will. If it doesn't, it doesn't, then we'll move

455
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 5: forward with what we have.

456
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:13,879
Speaker 1: Nig I was thinking about certain and because I was

457
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 1: thinking about what happened with Baltimore this week with the

458
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 1: whole Lamar Jackson thing and the injury report, and that

459
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 1: is obviously something the league is really tied into when

460
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 1: it comes to the injury report. As it pertains to

461
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:30,399
Speaker 1: you know, full participant doubt was probably what they've limited

462
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 1: in question doubtful Like in that situation, he did participate

463
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 1: in practice, he just wasn't doing it in a normal

464
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 1: vein of what he was How how tough is that

465
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 1: to kind of figure out when you're doing the injury report, Like,

466
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 1: all right, was he really limited today?

467
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 4: Was he full? Like? How does that kind of go

468
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 4: with the injury report?

469
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 5: If there's any gray, the best thing to do what

470
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 5: we do is just make sure we verify it with

471
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 5: the league. So again, we're gonna be honest, We're gonna

472
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 5: be trained like we're gonna do the right thing.

473
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,360
Speaker 2: So each team's gonna handle a little bit differently.

474
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 5: Hopefully everybody understands what the rules and ramifications are. Wednesday

475
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:05,880
Speaker 5: Thursday are kind of one thing. Basically, the guy practiced,

476
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 5: so he didn't practice. What is he limited?

477
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 2: Was he full?

478
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 3: Was he not?

479
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 5: And then once you get to Friday, you sort of

480
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 5: have to make a declaration about what his availability is

481
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 5: for the game based on what happened during the course

482
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 5: of the week. Honestly, there's things that could happen on

483
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 5: Saturday that change the player's availability. So then we gave

484
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 5: warm up sometimes exactly, so we have an obligation to

485
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,440
Speaker 5: if something were to change. That's why you know OMAR

486
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,399
Speaker 5: does a good job of if we have something change,

487
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 5: put the information out there.

488
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,359
Speaker 2: I would say there's a bigger.

489
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 5: Picture on all this as well, because you have some

490
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,080
Speaker 5: of the gambling and some of the other things that

491
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 5: are involved. Like we can like put our head at

492
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 5: a sand on all this. But you know, everybody's just

493
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 5: looking for information, so our responsibility and obligations do the

494
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 5: right thing, make sure we have it accurate and disclose

495
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 5: it accordingly, and if there's an issue, then will work.

496
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:51,959
Speaker 2: To get it fixed.

497
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 4: I'm guessing that game plan wise, during the week somebody's

498
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 4: limited on the opposing team, you're thinking they're playing.

499
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're sing you're tracking in if there's anything that

500
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,159
Speaker 5: tilts it one way or the other. In the end,

501
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,439
Speaker 5: you're preparing for all fifty three guys on the roster.

502
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 5: So okay, if he plays, he plays. If he doesn't play,

503
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:11,919
Speaker 5: who potentially could play in his place? Is it going

504
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 5: to affect anything that they're doing? So those are all

505
00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:16,959
Speaker 5: things that's part of what the advanced scouts job is

506
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:18,479
Speaker 5: to kind of track that during the course of the

507
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 5: week for the upcoming opponent and try to figure out

508
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 5: what information do we have?

509
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 2: Okay, got it?

510
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 5: Then when you have the enactors before the game, Hey,

511
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:25,800
Speaker 5: here are the guys who are out.

512
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 2: Here's who's playing.

513
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 4: Ready, Go all right, Nick, it's Halloween week and this

514
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,440
Speaker 4: is very important information here we're gonna get from you

515
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 4: because Snickers has heard that. I just heard that Snickers

516
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 4: is one of our partners here, and that's kind of

517
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 4: the goat candy.

518
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 2: The Snickers like one of the questions.

519
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 4: No, no, the question is you have to have a

520
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 4: Halloween candy. You might want to start there. What have

521

00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:17,440

532
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,320

536
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 5: lot of people. It's a shocking development.

537
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,159
Speaker 4: Okay, So if you'll like talk, how do you feel

538
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:31,080

539
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:33,160
Speaker 1: Uh?

541
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 4: Okay? All right, don't hate it, but don't love it.

542
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:37,880
Speaker 4: Kind of in the middle.

543
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 2: I want to try to keep my teeth intact.

544
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 1: See Johnny's trying to promote candy candy corn like you

545
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: either love it or you hate it.

546
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 4: I love it polarizing absolutely, Nick. Thanks a lot of

547
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:48,240

Speaker 2: Thanks fellas.

549
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 4: Sit up.

550
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 2: Oh okay, okay, professional.

551
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 4: Nick, it's legends week. And also Janice McNair gets inducted

552
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 4: into the Ring of Honor at halftime of the Denver game.

553
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 5: Your thoughts, there's nobody more deserving probably in the state

554
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 5: of Texas than miss McNair and just the opportunity to

555
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,480
Speaker 5: be recognized and essentially go in the Ring of Honor.

556
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 5: You know, with her husband, they've meant everything to the organization.

557
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 5: I mean, honestly, she's the first lady of Houston Texans football.

558
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 5: And you know what better ambassador for the NFL and

559
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 5: for the Houston Texans than miss McNair. I mean, certainly

560
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,680
Speaker 5: grateful with McNair family and the opportunities they provided for

561
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,399
Speaker 5: our family and our job as trying to do the

562
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,200
Speaker 5: best we can represent the organization with much class and

563
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 5: dignity as possible, which is what Miss McNair has been

564
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 5: about like her entire life.

565
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: Well said, Nick, Appreciate the time, my friend. As always.

566
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 1: All right, coming up, Mark and I got a lot

567
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,440
Speaker 1: to talk about, including the Bills face the Chiefs this weekend,

568
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 1: who we cheered for. Well, that's gonna be tough. That's

569
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 1: next on Texas All Access. Welcome back to this Wednesday

570
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:56,400
Speaker 1: edition of Texans All Access from the Hundaie Texans Radio Studio,

571
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,680
Speaker 1: John Harris, your host, Footbaying Asylum reporter for your Houston

572
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 1: text since and it feels like a Wednesday. Finally, Mark,

573
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,440
Speaker 1: it really does. We finally can get in a little

574
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 1: bit of a routine kind of at that game on Sunday,

575
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:14,680
Speaker 1: that game on Sunday. I like the rhythm. We're kind

576
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 1: of back on track. Our Wednesday rhythm is really cool.

577
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:18,360
Speaker 1: I like it.

578
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:20,480
Speaker 4: Well, I like it too, Johnny. But if you're gonna

579
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 4: be one of the good teams in this league, he's

580
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 4: gonna get used to mayhem. Because I watched the Chiefs

581
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 4: the other night. What was it, Monday Night? They were

582
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,160
Speaker 4: on Monday, all right, So they have that Monday night.

583
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 4: They're on primetime every week. It feels like they rarely

584
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 4: have that Sunday noon or they'll have a Sunday late

585
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 4: window game, then they'll have a Thursday. Then they'll have

586
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 4: a Sunday and a Sunday night and a Monday. And

587
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 4: it's crazy. The Texans will be there Sunday night in December.

588
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,920
Speaker 4: So you have to get used to that. The Patriots

589
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,040
Speaker 4: did it for years, The Steelers are always doing it,

590
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 4: the Cowboys are always doing it. They don't always deal

591
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 4: with it very well. But you have to be ready

592
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 4: for this, and you want to be one of those

593
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,120
Speaker 4: teams that's on in primetime because that means you are good.

594
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,880
Speaker 4: If the Texans all Noon starts next week, that means

595
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 4: they imploded for the rest of this year. So let's

596
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 4: hope they perform really well and have tons of primetime games.

597
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:09,639
Speaker 4: That means you are good. But I'm with you. I

598
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,440
Speaker 4: love the normal routine too. As a guy who works

599
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 4: NFL games, I love the Sunday at noon.

600
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 6: Now.

601
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 4: A lot of people go to these games might prefer

602
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,480
Speaker 4: a three o'clock start because it gives them time to

603
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 4: get there. It's okay, I'll get home at nine still

604
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 4: or whatever the time would be, and I could still

605
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 4: get in my jamis and have a good night's sleeper work.

606
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 1: Okay, So let me ask you this, Yeah, what's the

607
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:34,919
Speaker 1: rule for flexing games? What's what's the rule again for

608
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 1: flexing games? How many weeks do they need? And is

609
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 1: there a possibility of flexing a game from a Sunday

610
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,639
Speaker 1: to a Monday. I thought there was. I thought they

611
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 1: had changed that that they yeah, there is that you can't.

612
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 4: Not from a Sunday night to a Monday, but from

613
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,159
Speaker 4: a Sunday to a month, from a Sunday game to

614
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:55,639
Speaker 4: later on in the season. And I can't remember the

615
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:59,919
Speaker 4: exact criteria, but it does happen, or it can happen.

616
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 4: And Thursdays, I believe, are locked. But we'll see what

617
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 4: happens here. They want Thursdays to be better than they were,

618
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,600
Speaker 4: and you'll notice that Slate is a whole lot better

619
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 4: than it used to be. Monday is still a quote

620
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 4: the week Slate. I'll just call it that. It's the

621
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:18,240
Speaker 4: weakest of the primetime games, right because I don't know why.

622
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,680
Speaker 4: For whatever reason, ESPN has always gotten that. Maybe now

623
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 4: that the NFL has ten percent ownership at ESPN, maybe

624
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:25,640
Speaker 4: they changed that. I don't know if they will. They

625
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 4: want to give NBC the Kreme de la Creme on

626
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,359
Speaker 4: Sunday Night, though, because that's the number one thing can

627
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,160
Speaker 4: show in America and they want to keep it that way.

628
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 1: Okay, so let me throw this at you know. I'm

629
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 1: getting way way way ahead of myself in a sense.

630
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, but.

631
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 1: After we play the Bills. So for instance, let's just

632
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,359
Speaker 1: say that we come out of this, we get it,

633
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:49,959
Speaker 1: We get hot here Hot beat the Broncos, knock off Jacksonville, Tennessee.

634
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:50,679
Speaker 4: They would make us.

635
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 1: They would make a six and four.

636
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:53,600
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh. Yes.

637
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 1: Week thirteen's Monday Night game is the Giants at the Patriots.

638
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 4: It's hard. Well, the Patriots are good and the Giants

639
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 4: are the Giants. I don't know if they'd moved that,

640
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:07,880
Speaker 4: especially if the Giants.

641
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 1: Win ils eight and two and were six and four.

642
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 4: I don't know. Maybe maybe who knows.

643
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,160
Speaker 1: We were played a Monday night game up there.

644
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,280
Speaker 4: Yes, twenty ten played a Monday night game up there,

645
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 4: and it was not good.

646
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,359
Speaker 1: Well, anything before twenty fifteen was not.

647
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 4: I mean, that's the one that Brian Kushing talked about

648
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,359
Speaker 4: last night. Yeah, he talked about Peyton Manning going to

649
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,919
Speaker 4: the silent count in that game. And that was the

650
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,400
Speaker 4: first game that year without Demiko Ryans who got hurt

651
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,119
Speaker 4: in Week six. And had Demiko not gotten hurt in

652
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 4: Week six and twenty ten, I think twenty ten turns

653
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:40,359
Speaker 4: out totally different because the defense totally imploded around They

654
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,360
Speaker 4: were having a rough time to begin with, and coverage

655
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:44,320
Speaker 4: and everything, but at least they were winning the games

656
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 4: they should win. And what happened after that was they

657
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 4: weren't winning the games they should win. They could have

658
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 4: won the Charger game that year, They could have won

659
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,400
Speaker 4: the Giants game. They could. Don't get me started, but anyway, Yeah,

660
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 4: that was a Monday night or in Indy, Sunday night.

661
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 1: Game in the week thirteen is Denver at Washington.

662
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 4: With Jade Daniels getting healthier again. I think Washington writes

663
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 4: the ship at least a little bit enough to host

664
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 4: that game. Yeah, I mean we need we need Jayde

665
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 4: and Daniels healthy and winning that game. Yeah, because all

666
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,160
Speaker 4: these AOC teams are doing so well. Denver's doing so well,

667
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 4: the Patriots are doing so well. This is terrible Steelers.

668
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,960
Speaker 1: A win fest. Everybody won in the a except for

669
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 1: the Steelers. I loved that. I love the Steelers going down.

670
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 1: But now we need the Steelers to win this week

671
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:29,280
Speaker 1: because they played the Colts. Steelers. Listen, here's our plea.

672
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 4: We need you, we need you.

673
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 1: It's as simple as that.

674
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:33,119
Speaker 4: We need you.

675
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,640
Speaker 1: We need Aaron Rodgers to play a little bit better.

676
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 1: We need a Steelers defense and this this was always

677
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 1: I just always thought about this when the Steelers had

678
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 1: that just rockstar defense with you know, tj Alex Highsmith,

679
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 1: I mean Cameron Hayward. Great defense, a little bit long

680
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: in the tooth. The secondary. I don't think that they

681
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 1: have ever gotten right. But they were so good and

682
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 1: they had Minca where then Maka gets traded. I just

683
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 1: always fear for Pittsburgh fans, like, watch, this defense is

684
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 1: gonna get old by the time they get a quarterback.

685
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 1: And now they got a quarterback, but the defense has

686
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 1: got a little bit old. And Jordan I didn't realize

687
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 1: Jordan Love completed twenty passes in a road the other night.

688
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 4: Yes, he was on fire. He was was holy. Yeah,

689
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 4: and they are not good. You're right, and against Jonathan Taylor,

690
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 4: I'm worried about that Pittsburgh defense having to deal with

691
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 4: that old line and Jonathan Taylor running down their throat.

692
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 4: This is not going to be fun. But you never know.

693
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 4: They could circle the wagons. It's Mike Tomlin. Somehow, he

694
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,640
Speaker 4: always finds a magical way to write things, and maybe

695
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 4: this is the game in which they do it. I

696
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 4: don't like Aaron Rodgers just as a player, right, Yeah,

697
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 4: disappointed in his career. You know, usually old guys you

698
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 4: like them more like Tom Brady, tom Brady and Tampa.

699
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 4: I like tom Brady and Tampa. Yeah, because you like

700
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,720
Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers. I don't know what it is, Johnny, Yeah,

701
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 4: just because he was just because the way he behaved

702
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,880
Speaker 4: in New York and everything, and yeah in the AFC,

703
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 4: if he was with that, I don't know, the Cardinals

704
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 4: or something, maybe I'd be rooting for him. I can't

705
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 4: define it.

706
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 1: I just think that whole thing in New York just

707
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 1: showed everybody's backside, if I'm being honest, Well, he showed

708
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 1: that was just that's everybody.

709
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 4: Rob Sala hires Micha Lafleur to coach the offense. It

710
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,480
Speaker 4: doesn't work out year one, Rogers joins the team. They

711
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,560
Speaker 4: got to go higher. Nathaniel Hackett. Rodgers gets hurt after

712
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 4: two minutes and Hacket is the OC. They still win

713
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 4: seven games anyway with Zach Wilson, but Hackett is clearly

714
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 4: not Sola's choice to be the OC to replace Mike Lafleur.

715
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 4: So he kind of did what Demico did, which is

716
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 4: I want to change my offensive coordinator now. He didn't

717
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 4: have Demico success. But he wanted to change his offensive coordinator,

718
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 4: but he didn't get to pick his guy. But I

719
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 4: guess you're okay with it if you're Rob at the time,

720
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 4: because they think I'm getting Aaron Rodgers. Let's just go

721
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:45,960
Speaker 4: with this. We'll ride this Aaron Rodgers train. But it

722
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:49,080
Speaker 4: went nowhere for him and he was out of a job.

723
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 4: I think Rob's going to get a job. I think

724
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,240
Speaker 4: next year he'll be a head coach somewhere.

725
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,959
Speaker 1: I think so too. I think we don't we sometimes

726
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: we talk about them in silos, we don't put them together.

727
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 1: But NFL coaching, college coaching, it's gonna be really interesting

728
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 1: because there are a lot of big time jobs open

729
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 1: and who is college football exactly? So they're gonna is

730
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 1: Joe Brady, for example, offensive coordinated to the Buffalo Bills,

731
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 1: who was the offensive coordinator for that twenty nineteen he

732
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 1: was the offensive coordinator. Take it back, Steve Kraigthorpe was,

733
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 1: but Ensminger was. Excuse me, but Brady was essentially the

734
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 1: one kind of driving the train. So does LSU called

735
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 1: Joe Brady and say, hey, come back and be our

736
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 1: head coach? That's pulling a key offensive coordinator out of

737
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: the NFL world. So is that gonna happen a few

738
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,440
Speaker 1: more times? You know, Belichick went back or went to

739
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:42,160
Speaker 1: the college game. He never been at college game. He

740
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: went to the college game. Are there gonna be more

741
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 1: NFL coaches that do that? And how does that change

742
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 1: kind of the past the NFL?

743
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 4: Wait, who's the BC coach? Who's the defensive coordinator in

744
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 4: Green Bay? Now? Jeff Haffley? All right? So Jeff Haffley

745
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 4: left Boston College? Bo that's Boston College, all right, Boston College,

746
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 4: Limited Resources, all of that ship. Kelly Do he left UCLA,

747
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 4: his head coach U c l A.

748
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 1: He left, and he now is the Las Vegas Raiders

749
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:06,959
Speaker 1: offensive coordinated.

750
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 4: How's that work it out for him? Not as well

751
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 4: as I thought it would.

752
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 1: No, I thought it would actually work out pretty well,

753
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 1: not spectacular, a little bit better. I think there's just

754
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 1: a ceiling on them. They just don't have the They're

755
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 1: not a talent. I mean, Gino is not a what's

756
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 1: the right way of saying this. Gino is not the.

757
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 4: Kind of talent that could overcome bad off that line town.

758
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,000
Speaker 1: I think Gino needs a little bit more around him

759
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 1: to get him to his or close to his ceiling,

760
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 1: and it's just he's not there.

761
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 4: You can tell Seattle had it. We were just there.

762
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 4: They have talent and Donald's taking advantage of that, right.

763
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 1: Like you, But Sam Darnald with the Raiders, Donald, the Raiders.

764
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:44,440
Speaker 4: Might look like Carolina Sam Darnell.

765
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. But you also if you got the best

766
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 1: version of Sam Donald man the Raiders I think would

767
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 1: end up being would be pretty good. But that said,

768
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 1: it's I think that's going to impact the coaching movement,

769
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 1: and that's you know, like you said with Robert solid

770
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 1: I think Robert is gonna have an opportunity. Kind of

771
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 1: curious as to how many NFL jobs end up being

772
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:09,959
Speaker 1: open at the end of the year.

773
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 4: I got another one for you, Vance Joseph Denver good defense. Yep,

774
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 4: he's been a head coach. Didn't work out according to Plan.

775
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 4: It's weird that he's the coordinator in a place where

776
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 4: he was the head coach. But that does happen. I

777
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:26,320
Speaker 4: guess does he get another job. That's another coordinator to

778
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 4: look out for. But when he interviews, the first question

779
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 4: is going to be high. Vance, who's your OC going

780
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 4: to be? What's your plan? And the offensive side? Next question,

781
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 4: who's your quarterback going to be? If you want who's

782
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 4: your offensive coordinator? And then who do you want the

783
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 4: quarterback to be? Absolute, especially if he's in a place

784
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 4: that doesn't want that one. Now, if he ends up

785
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,400
Speaker 4: getting the Tennessee Titans job, we all know who the

786
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:48,400
Speaker 4: quarterback is going to be.

787
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 1: Yes, oh, ce like, okay, who's your O C. What's

788
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 1: what's your plan? Give us the top three o c's

789
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 1: that you want to bring here and explain why you

790
00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 1: want to do it. So, yeah, you're you're exactly right.

791
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:01,959
Speaker 1: Fans a defense, Now we're gonna see that on Sunday.

792
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 4: If I didn't know exactly who to pick as far

793
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,359
Speaker 4: as experienced play caller in the NFL, I might go,

794
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:16,239
Speaker 4: give me a good staff but a young, swashbuckling, brilliant

795
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:19,760
Speaker 4: OC even at the one double A level in college,

796
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:24,879
Speaker 4: somebody who's got the weird, wacky, crazy offense that might

797
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,359
Speaker 4: translate in the NFL at least they're gonna use some

798
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,880
Speaker 4: of those elements along with some standardized NFL stuff. I

799
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 4: don't know. I might go crazy like that, but who knows.

800
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,239
Speaker 1: Let me give you a different philosophy and see how

801
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:40,600
Speaker 1: you would feel about this. So when Bruce Arians, who

802
00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 1: is obviously you know he was up there in years.

803
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 1: When Bruce Arians took over with the Arizona Cardinals, Bruce

804
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:53,280
Speaker 1: made his position coaches or went out and got position

805
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:58,759
Speaker 1: coaches that were not like Nubes completely. They I mean

806
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 1: they had some they had some rings around a tree,

807
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,879
Speaker 1: but they were you know, mid to late thirties. They

808
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,200
Speaker 1: were younger guys, right. But then what he did was

809
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 1: he brought in run in Tom Moore. He brought in

810
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:13,279
Speaker 1: Tom Moore. He brought in Coach Airline, Larry's Airline. He

811
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 1: brought in there was one another guy, I can't remember

812
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 1: his name, Jim Hannafan. Did he bring not Jim Hannafan,

813
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:21,080
Speaker 1: but there were a couple others that he brought it.

814
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:24,640
Speaker 1: He brought in about four or five coaches that were

815
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 1: probably mid sixties, had been around, had seen it, you know,

816
00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:32,440
Speaker 1: they could help with respective positions, like I know it.

817
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 1: Coach Airline. He had coached NFL college offensive lines forever.

818
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,520
Speaker 1: So he ended up being the quote unquote assistant no

819
00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,640
Speaker 1: line coach, so he didn't have to do all he'd

820
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:45,759
Speaker 1: have to run all the meetings. He didn't have to

821
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:47,400
Speaker 1: do all that stuff. That was left up to the

822
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:51,920
Speaker 1: younger offensive line coach to do all of that. But

823
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:56,440
Speaker 1: Larry was there to say, hey, you know, he had

824
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 1: the gravit toss in some sense. If I'm if I'm

825
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:01,439
Speaker 1: a coach, or I end up being a young coach,

826
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,799
Speaker 1: older coach, whatever the case might be, I would think

827
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,920
Speaker 1: about doing something like that. Have some younger whipper snappers

828
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 1: that can maybe relate to the younger players. But hey,

829
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 1: I've got these you got these ogs that have been

830
00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 1: around and seen some things that can help some of

831
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:17,000
Speaker 1: those younger coaches along the way. So I always thought

832
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 1: that was an interesting philosophy for Bruce Arians when he

833
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 1: went to the Arizona Cars and it worked for a while.

834
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 1: They were pretty good under Bruce Arians. Oh yeah, and

835
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 1: then Arians leaves and it didn't go as well. I mean,

836
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:29,839
Speaker 1: Cliff had a couple of winning years, et cetera.

837
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:30,319
Speaker 4: That's another one.

838
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:34,319
Speaker 1: Who's gonna end up Cliff Fans Joseph Robert Sala. I

839
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:36,359
Speaker 1: think all those guys, those three in particular, I think

840
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:37,400
Speaker 1: will be in the running.

841
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 4: For Washington doesn't go anywhere. What if they can't get

842
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 4: out of their own way offensively, What if they've been

843
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,600
Speaker 4: figured out Daniel's injury is not the real problem here.

844
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 3: I don't know.

845
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 4: I'm just throwing a bunch of stuff.

846
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 1: That's the thing with Cliff That's always been an issue

847
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:54,600
Speaker 1: end of the season, the second year, third year thing.

848
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:57,000
Speaker 1: You know, he always has an impact right away, but

849
00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,640
Speaker 1: can he sustain it for a while. Yeah, I mean

850
00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 1: if Washington really doesn't start getting it going offensively, he

851
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:05,919
Speaker 1: may not for that reason. It's kind of the same

852
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,719
Speaker 1: thing like with Vance. You know what he's going to

853
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:11,359
Speaker 1: be ASKINGCU you're off its coordinator. With Cliff, it's going

854
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 1: to be Cliff, how do we establish this staff without

855
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:18,959
Speaker 1: you know, being you know, one that gets a great

856
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 1: start but then we peter out at the end.

857
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:22,920
Speaker 4: Mike McDaniel's going to get a big check as an

858
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 4: offensive coordinator, I think, because if I'm Vance, Joseph or

859
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,279
Speaker 4: one of these guys, Sala, you might just say when

860
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,359
Speaker 4: he gets his job, I'm gonna hire Mike. Because there's

861
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,799
Speaker 4: no way he's getting a head coaching job. I'll hire

862
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 4: him as MIOC. Unless Mike somehow saves his job with

863
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:37,880
Speaker 4: a late season run. He could possibly do it, but

864
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:41,680
Speaker 4: We'll see about that. I hate to pre determined guys

865
00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 4: are going to lose their gigs. Yeah, you know, I

866
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 4: know it hasn't gone well for them, But we'll see two.

867
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:47,360
Speaker 1: Guys that are more than likely going to be in

868
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 1: their job, I would think next year. Sean McDermott, Andy Reid.

869
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 1: The Bills play the Chiefs this weekend in Orchard Park

870
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 1: up in Buffalo.

871
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:57,880
Speaker 4: Who are we rooting for? I'm rooting for the Bills

872
00:37:57,880 --> 00:37:59,799
Speaker 4: in this one. If I have to pick a team,

873
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,600
Speaker 4: I can't root for the Chiefs under any circumstances other

874
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 4: than playing an AFC South team we need to lose,

875
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:06,680
Speaker 4: or if it turns out at the end of the season,

876
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 4: we just need them to knock somebody off so the

877
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,840
Speaker 4: Texans can slide in. Because if you look at the

878
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 4: situation right now, let's just talk. Can we talk real

879
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,399
Speaker 4: talk here? Yes, Josh and has used to say, real talk,

880
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,319
Speaker 4: let's talk if the Texans are gonna make it in

881
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 4: all likelihood From where we sit right now, it looks

882
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,160
Speaker 4: like the wild card path for the first time ever

883
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,400
Speaker 4: as a franchise. Now, I'd love to see the Colts

884
00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,840
Speaker 4: implode and this feel good thing going on with the

885
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 4: horseshoe completely cave in on them and the Texans take over.

886
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 4: Now it's entirely possible. You know, once upon a time,

887
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 4: and it was only two years ago, the Jags were

888
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,160
Speaker 4: eight and three leaving this building and the Texans had

889
00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 4: no chance to catch them yet did so. Weird things,

890
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 4: wonderful things can happen in this league if you play well.

891
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 4: And obviously the key here is the Texans continue to

892
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 4: play well and continue to I mean, you've won three

893
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 4: out of four, if you went four out of five,

894
00:38:57,719 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 4: you know, five out of six, just keep that kind

895
00:38:59,920 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 4: of thing going. Then all of a sudden you beat

896
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:05,000
Speaker 4: the Colts, and then the callers start to tighten a

897
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:07,080
Speaker 4: little bit if you can stay within a game or

898
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:09,759
Speaker 4: so of them, even two, because they could slip up late,

899
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:11,960
Speaker 4: and then you get in. But if you're gonna get

900
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,080
Speaker 4: in as a wild card, you're still gonna need a

901
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,799
Speaker 4: bunch of help. It seems in this AFC that has

902
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 4: these weird things happening, Like the Patriots doing well, and

903
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 4: that's how we started this segment. I mean, that's just

904
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:24,920
Speaker 4: bizarre to me how well they're doing. But you look

905
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:26,880
Speaker 4: at their schedule and I know they beat the Bills

906
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:29,400
Speaker 4: in New York and that's cool, but it's not like

907
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,359
Speaker 4: Murderer's Row. You know, you're playing the Saints and you're

908
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:35,319
Speaker 4: playing the Dolphins, who stink. You thought the Dolphins would

909
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 4: be better than this. And maybe the Dolphins are getting

910
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:39,800
Speaker 4: better after what they did to Atlanta, but maybe Atlanta's

911
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,279
Speaker 4: totally imploded by now. I don't know. This is a

912
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 4: strange league. We always say week to week it is

913
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,799
Speaker 4: utterly true, and that's one of the things that makes

914
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 4: it so compelling.

915
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 1: Now you do get both Kansas City and Buffalo. You

916
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 1: play Kansas City in Kansas City as much that Sunday

917
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 1: night earlier. Yeah, Buffalo at home the Thursday night after

918
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:02,719
Speaker 1: you get back from Tennessee. So you go, you go

919
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:07,000
Speaker 1: Denver at home, Jacksonville at home, at Tennessee. You come

920
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 1: back and on that Thursday night you end up playing

921
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills.

922
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:10,799
Speaker 4: There.

923
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 1: I there's a part of me it just wants the

924
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 1: Bills to win that just can't sit there and go,

925
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 1: let's go Chiefs.

926
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:22,239
Speaker 4: But the Chiefs lose their five and four and still dangerous.

927
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 1: Is all very dangerous, And I mean some people, and

928
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 1: you know, the people in Vegas think that the Chiefs

929
00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,879
Speaker 1: are still the favorite in the AFC at five and three.

930
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:32,600
Speaker 4: If I had to, you know the dollar thing that

931
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 4: you always bring to bring it up, it's still the Chiefs.

932
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 4: But you're right, Johnny, if you get a win for

933
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,880
Speaker 4: the Chiefs here there's six and three and the Bills

934
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:43,479
Speaker 4: are five and three. Yep, right right, So it gives

935
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:46,759
Speaker 4: another loss to the Bills, which is nice. And maybe

936
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:50,480
Speaker 4: you want the Patriots to win the East because would

937
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 4: you like to go there for the postseason.

938
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 1: I presented this to you the other day, oh man,

939
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 1: I presented you this the other day, that we do

940
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:01,920
Speaker 1: end up getting a wildcard, and we're way ahead of ourselves.

941
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 1: We get the wild card and our first road wild

942
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:10,880
Speaker 1: card game is in Foxborough against the Patriots.

943
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,880
Speaker 4: It's just I'm tingling all over thinking of this. I mean,

944
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,920
Speaker 4: I mean, in fact of wow them in the playoffs

945
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:24,520
Speaker 4: in that building, Johnny, it was so satisfying. I mean,

946
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 4: that's almost as good as beating the Colts in a

947
00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 4: playoff game in Indy.

948
00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:30,160
Speaker 1: Well, that was the second part that I said to you,

949
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 1: which was we beat the Patriots and then turn around

950
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 1: the next week and have to go to Indy in

951
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 1: the divisional playoff round.

952
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:41,600
Speaker 4: Oh you imagine getting both of those? Oh, I mean

953
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:45,319
Speaker 4: that run the Titans had where they knocked off the

954
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,120
Speaker 4: top seed, Well, they knocked off the Patriots first, then

955
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:51,080
Speaker 4: they raved off the number one seed Ravens, both on

956
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:53,200
Speaker 4: the road, and then they got to go to Kansas City.

957
00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 1: Then at ten point leading against Kansas City, that's crazy.

958
00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,319
Speaker 4: Ten points. Was kind of rooting for the Chiefs at

959
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,359
Speaker 4: that point. I did not want to see the Titans

960
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:02,040
Speaker 4: getting because.

961
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:05,280
Speaker 1: Because we just blew and if they beat the Chiefs,

962
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,719
Speaker 1: well they weren't that they weren't the chief Hit at

963
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:09,440
Speaker 1: that point, they kind of were the chief I mean

964
00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:10,319
Speaker 1: they were getting there.

965
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,920
Speaker 4: Wait a minute. They lost the AFC Championship game in eighteen,

966
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 4: right eighteen, Yeah, they were plenty chieftains. Well, I mean

967
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:18,319
Speaker 4: they weren't a Super Bowl team yet, right, but they

968
00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:20,360
Speaker 4: were a super Bowl team, but they were still intimidating

969
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:21,880
Speaker 4: as hell to play in that building.

970
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 5: Totally.

971
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't disagree with that's the only year we

972
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:27,080
Speaker 1: beat them in the regular stit so now they're what

973
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:30,080
Speaker 1: three Super bowl sins and still.

974
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:31,600
Speaker 4: By the way, I know we beat the Chiefs earlier

975
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:35,240
Speaker 4: in our history at Arrowhead but this is a different context. Yes, absolutely,

976
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:36,319
Speaker 4: that was Trent Green. I.

977
00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:38,600
Speaker 1: You know, there's a part of me that thinks that

978
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,879
Speaker 1: if the Bills win and move Kansas City to five

979
00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:45,920
Speaker 1: and four, then okay, maybe it does. It make it

980
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:48,719
Speaker 1: that much more difficult for the Chiefs to win the

981
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:51,760
Speaker 1: AFC West. Now they've got to be a wild card

982
00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 1: in the playoffs at best. That would be kind of

983
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:57,319
Speaker 1: that would be kind of fun if that were to

984
00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 1: happen as well. But I the Buffalo Bills have played

985
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:06,920
Speaker 1: the Chiefs extremely well in the regular season, extremely well

986
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 1: in the regular like.

987
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:09,240
Speaker 4: Not in the playoffs. Win on the playoffs.

988
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:12,520
Speaker 1: In fact, I think I think Kansas City's only beating

989
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 1: them once in the regular season, but Buffalo has won

990
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:17,920
Speaker 1: like four or five in the last six or seven years.

991
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:19,880
Speaker 1: It thinks that Josh Allen has been there in eighteen

992
00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:21,040
Speaker 1: and they started.

993
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,200
Speaker 4: Playing the game where Mahomes I was like, that was horrible, man,

994
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,920
Speaker 4: when I had the handshake with Josh Allen. Right, you

995
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:27,480
Speaker 4: had that awful outing.

996
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:30,480
Speaker 1: But the Bills end up winning the regular season game,

997
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,840
Speaker 1: but the Chiefs end up finding away in the playoffs,

998
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:35,920
Speaker 1: whether the game is an Orchard Park or the game

999
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:38,280
Speaker 1: ends up being in Kansas City. This game on Sunday

1000
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,319
Speaker 1: will end up being at Orchard Park. It'll be the

1001
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:43,720
Speaker 1: afternoon game. So but you get a chance to watch

1002
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:46,800
Speaker 1: that one after the Broncos hopefully go down to defeat

1003
00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:47,520
Speaker 1: to your Texans.

1004
00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:49,799
Speaker 4: All right, well, we'll see how this all shakes out.

1005
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:53,360
Speaker 4: But I thought of one moment from Monday when Bobby

1006
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:56,839
Speaker 4: Wagner hit Mahomes along the sideline. It was clean, yeah, yeah, yeah,

1007
00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:58,680
Speaker 4: but I was like, don't you tear thul that flag

1008
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,080
Speaker 4: and Mahomes. I was looking at him, don't you dare

1009
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:04,040
Speaker 4: look at Wagner or the official. Don't you dare do it? Patrick?

1010
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:04,360
Speaker 4: And he did.

1011
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:06,799
Speaker 1: And so to his credit, to his credit for that one,

1012
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:10,320
Speaker 1: that one didn't on that one, there's no doubt about that. Okay,

1013
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 1: we get back. Let's go over what's happening in the NFL.

1014
00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:18,600
Speaker 1: What's going on with Patrick Cirtan in Denver. Sources are

1015
00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:21,440
Speaker 1: saying it's four to six weeks. We'll talk about that

1016
00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 1: and then some next on Texans All Access. Yes, sir,

1017
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:28,440
Speaker 1: Happy Wednesday, everybody. Welcome back to this edition of Texans

1018
00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 1: All Access from the Hundai Texans Radio Studio. I'm your host,

1019
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:36,759
Speaker 1: John Harris football analyst sideline reporter. I mentioned going into

1020
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:41,320
Speaker 1: the break, what's going on with Pat Cirtan the second,

1021
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four NFL Defensive Player of the Year

1022
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:49,360
Speaker 1: now In the game against the Cowboys last week, he

1023
00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:52,400
Speaker 1: got hurt early, but it was like an ankle injury.

1024
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:57,000
Speaker 1: Early later in the game, he ended up injuring his

1025
00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 1: PEC muscle. It is not I got a tear. We've

1026
00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 1: seen that before. J. J. Watt had a tear back

1027
00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 1: in Week eight of twenty nineteen as the Raiders. But

1028
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:09,560
Speaker 1: he's able to come back. This is a strain, but

1029
00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:13,680
Speaker 1: a strain still is about four to six weeks. That's

1030
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:18,200
Speaker 1: what's being reported. The Broncos are balancing out. Okay, do

1031
00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:21,759
Speaker 1: we put him on ir How do we handle this

1032
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:25,760
Speaker 1: right now? Well, all they're doing right now is putting

1033
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:29,040
Speaker 1: him as a DNP. On the practice or the status

1034
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:33,120
Speaker 1: report on the injury reporter should say he did not practice.

1035
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:38,520
Speaker 1: All indications are that Patrick Surtana second will not play

1036
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,800
Speaker 1: on Sunday against the Texans. That means it'll be Riley

1037
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:47,360
Speaker 1: Moss and Chris Abrams drain out at the two corner positions.

1038
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:52,080
Speaker 1: And with the news that Nico Collins and Christian Kirk

1039
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:56,040
Speaker 1: were back at practice, even just in a limited capacity.

1040
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:58,279
Speaker 1: Makes you think that they're going to have to cover

1041
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:03,080
Speaker 1: all these Texans receivers without the NFL Defensive Player of

1042
00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:05,279
Speaker 1: the Year from last year, the second best corner of

1043
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:07,600
Speaker 1: the league, because you know who the first best is. Now,

1044
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,440
Speaker 1: He's not the only one on the Broncos side. Marvin

1045
00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:14,719
Speaker 1: Mims had a concussion late in that game. He was

1046
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:18,239
Speaker 1: also a DNP on Wednesday, so that's another one to

1047
00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:21,480
Speaker 1: watch because he is the explosive returner for the Broncos.

1048
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:23,960
Speaker 1: Tight End Nate Atkins, also dealing with the knee, did

1049
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,719
Speaker 1: not participate. Now the Texans side, they had a few

1050
00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:32,080
Speaker 1: that did not participate in practice. Nico Autry, he's kind

1051
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:33,640
Speaker 1: of a hit or missi of practice, so that one

1052
00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 1: doesn't kind of worry me a little bit. Dyan Horton

1053
00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:38,719
Speaker 1: and knee. He was kind of working on the side

1054
00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:40,920
Speaker 1: behind me on the sidelines, trying to get back in

1055
00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:43,120
Speaker 1: the game, dealing with the knee. Dalton's a big one,

1056
00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 1: a knee's shoulder. He didn't practice today, but coach was

1057
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:48,920
Speaker 1: asked about him after practice and it sounds like Dalton

1058
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:51,080
Speaker 1: will work his way back and hopefully he does because

1059
00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:53,160
Speaker 1: he is desperately needed for this week. And Lake and

1060
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:56,719
Speaker 1: Tomlinson had a head rest day so he did not participate,

1061
00:46:56,800 --> 00:47:01,520
Speaker 1: but Nico Christian Kirk back in minute capaccity. That was great.

1062
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:04,800
Speaker 1: Braxton Barrios practiced even with that chest injury. Jalen Petrie

1063
00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:08,000
Speaker 1: deal on foot, he was a limited participant. But at practice.

1064
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:14,000
Speaker 1: How about this Jakub Johnson back at practice today. Starting

1065
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:17,080
Speaker 1: to get some guys healthy. Dalton Keene, who's that practice

1066
00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:19,200
Speaker 1: on the practice squad after being signed to the practice

1067
00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:22,799
Speaker 1: squad just today, So some guys getting healthy. Gotta get

1068
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,759
Speaker 1: Dalton and some of these guys back full time that

1069
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:28,400
Speaker 1: did not participate, but at least some guys in the

1070
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:30,480
Speaker 1: Texans side getting healthy. And we'll keep an eye on

1071
00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:34,040
Speaker 1: certain in particular and Mims as the week progresses. As

1072
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:37,719
Speaker 1: all right, we get back Henry Toatoa joins us in

1073

Speaker 1: backer Henry Toa Toa. Here is Mark Henry and myself

1083
00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:07,120
Speaker 1: right here in studio.

1084
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:09,360
Speaker 4: With us, Henry Toto. Henry, how's it.

1085
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:11,319
Speaker 2: Going, good? Good, good good? After a great win?

1086
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:13,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, after the win over the forty nine ers, and

1087
00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:16,040
Speaker 4: it's Denver week. We'll get into them a whole lot

1088
00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:18,320
Speaker 4: to get ready for with the Broncos first place in

1089
00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:21,359
Speaker 4: the AFC West. My goodness. But let's review the win

1090
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 4: over San Francisco, Henry, because you were covering McCaffrey at times,

1091
00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:29,040
Speaker 4: you had a tall order there to stop them, and

1092
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:31,879
Speaker 4: you guys really shut that offense down. Tell us about

1093
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:32,839
Speaker 4: what went into that, man.

1094
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,359
Speaker 7: We had a good game plan, and like if I'm

1095
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,479
Speaker 7: being really honest, our game was to do your job,

1096
00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:41,360
Speaker 7: like everybody, just do your job, and a part of

1097
00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:43,320
Speaker 7: that was stopping McCaffrey. You know, we knew he was

1098
00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:45,040
Speaker 7: a huge part of their team and they wanted to

1099
00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:47,080
Speaker 7: get him the ball no matter which way it was,

1100
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:49,480
Speaker 7: and I feel like we all did a good job.

1101
00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:51,440
Speaker 7: Everybody honed in on the technique what we were supposed

1102
00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:54,320
Speaker 7: to do. D line played great, you know obviously linebackers

1103
00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:56,440
Speaker 7: and back end swarmed and did what we were supposed

1104
00:48:56,440 --> 00:49:00,760
Speaker 7: to do. But no, I'm really proud of the guys. Obviously,

1105
00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:02,239
Speaker 7: some areas we need to clean up here and there,

1106
00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:04,719
Speaker 7: but that comes with every single game. But felt really

1107
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:05,640
Speaker 7: really good about this one.

1108
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:06,520
Speaker 4: But do your job.

1109
00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:09,239
Speaker 1: I mean that it sounds simplistic, right, you know you've

1110
00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:12,520
Speaker 1: got you got to cover Christiane McCaffrey, that you do.

1111
00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:14,920
Speaker 1: Your job is to cover him. But still that's not

1112
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:17,239
Speaker 1: easy with a guy like that, especially when he comes

1113
00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 1: out of the when he comes out of the backfield.

1114
00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:20,719
Speaker 4: I'm thinking of the one I think right before the

1115
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:22,360
Speaker 4: half where he was isolated on you.

1116
00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:25,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, how tough is that When you're going one on

1117
00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:26,200
Speaker 1: one with him?

1118
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:29,200
Speaker 4: You have to guess in a sense, is you're a reader,

1119
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:29,759
Speaker 4: you're looking for?

1120
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:31,319
Speaker 1: What are you trying to do when you're one on

1121
00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:34,200
Speaker 1: one with a good running back receiver like McCaffrey.

1122
00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:36,840
Speaker 7: Is you gotta and we harp on this like a

1123
00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:39,839
Speaker 7: whole lot here is like owning your leverage so if

1124
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:42,359
Speaker 7: I'm inside levers, own the inside levers, like force him

1125
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:44,200
Speaker 7: to go out, you know, and if he does decide

1126
00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:46,319
Speaker 7: to go inside, then that's when you go and make

1127
00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:47,680
Speaker 7: a play and then you know.

1128
00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:49,319
Speaker 2: Break up a pass like like I did.

1129
00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:51,440
Speaker 7: So it was just taking the coach and that we

1130
00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:53,080
Speaker 7: had throughout the entire week was kind of.

1131
00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:55,200
Speaker 2: Just force him to to choose the levers.

1132
00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:57,440
Speaker 7: So we I obviously had inside leverge on that one

1133
00:49:57,480 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 7: and then you know, he broke in and I was

1134
00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:01,680
Speaker 7: just able to make a place. So that's the little

1135
00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:04,920
Speaker 7: critiques and details about our job and what the Miko

1136
00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:07,880
Speaker 7: and you know Berg kind of harps on. It's just

1137
00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:10,239
Speaker 7: like do your job, and you know, my leverage was

1138
00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:12,200
Speaker 7: inside leverage and owning that and if he ran it

1139
00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:14,040
Speaker 7: out then I'll just you know, run out for him

1140
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:14,800
Speaker 7: and make the tackle.

1141
00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:17,399
Speaker 4: Is that tough sometimes though, because hey I could get

1142
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:20,640
Speaker 4: there and I don't. I gotta do that too, to

1143
00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:23,520
Speaker 4: discipline yourself to do your job that way, Yeah, yeah,

1144
00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:26,240
Speaker 4: I mean it really, you know, and it's it adds

1145
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:27,040
Speaker 4: on with the game.

1146
00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:28,919
Speaker 7: You know that you're in the red area, the heat

1147
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:31,640
Speaker 7: of the moment, and it takes real discipline. Football, especially

1148
00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:34,279
Speaker 7: when you know you're up sixteen, or you're it's tie

1149
00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:36,279
Speaker 7: zero zero overtime, no matter what it is, you know,

1150
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:37,960
Speaker 7: it's that disc one of doing your job over and

1151
00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:38,400
Speaker 7: over again.

1152
00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:41,440
Speaker 4: Okay, I know you went to Dale sou Or Were

1153
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:42,680
Speaker 4: you a Niners fan growing up?

1154
00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:43,360
Speaker 2: I definitely was.

1155
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:44,120
Speaker 3: I was.

1156
00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:44,480
Speaker 1: I was.

1157
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:47,040
Speaker 7: I got an old picture of me with Niner helmet on.

1158
00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:51,560
Speaker 7: So this was back in the day when the Raiders

1159
00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:53,880
Speaker 7: were in Oakland. Yeah, so my family was splitting two

1160
00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:56,279
Speaker 7: Niner fans and Raider fans. So you know, I was

1161
00:50:56,320 --> 00:50:57,960
Speaker 7: being bleeding red and go for a little while.

1162
00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:00,560
Speaker 4: So how was that yesterday to see some red in

1163
00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:01,080
Speaker 4: the stands?

1164
00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:03,320
Speaker 1: But just to look across and go, I know you,

1165
00:51:03,480 --> 00:51:05,040
Speaker 1: I know you've played a lot of games before.

1166
00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:06,440
Speaker 4: I know what.

1167
00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:08,839
Speaker 1: You transferre from Tennessee Dla Babe had to play Tennessee before.

1168
00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:10,279
Speaker 1: I know what. That's kind of been like you. But

1169
00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:12,040
Speaker 1: just to see that team that you grew up loving,

1170
00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:12,600
Speaker 1: what was that like?

1171
00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:14,600
Speaker 2: Man? It was crazy? It was such a surreal moment.

1172
00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:16,920
Speaker 7: And you know, I called my wife and I kind

1173
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:18,560
Speaker 7: of just showed her the stands and she was at

1174
00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:21,040
Speaker 7: the game, obviously, but I kind of showed her and

1175
00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:22,920
Speaker 7: I showed her, like, weeks he running out, you know,

1176
00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:25,279
Speaker 7: weeks he comes out for you know, the Snappers, And

1177
00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:26,640
Speaker 7: I just saw the Weeks and I just told her.

1178
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:28,080
Speaker 7: I was like, man, this is this is so real,

1179
00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:30,279
Speaker 7: Like this is the team I watched and I can't

1180
00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:31,400
Speaker 7: believe I'm playing against them.

1181
00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:34,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I used to leave red and go.

1182
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:37,960
Speaker 7: So, you know, it was such a surreal moment, and

1183
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:40,160
Speaker 7: it was such a problem with not unfullly me but

1184
00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:43,480
Speaker 7: my family back at home watching. They're all still Niner fans,

1185
00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:46,359
Speaker 7: so being able to obviously playing a game but also

1186
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:48,280
Speaker 7: have my family watch it was huge.

1187
00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:51,360
Speaker 1: You have that crazy uncle, You have that crazy uncle.

1188
00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:53,760
Speaker 1: It's like, I love you, Henry, but I'm Anner.

1189
00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:56,200
Speaker 7: Uh huh oh yeah, that's my whole My whole family,

1190
00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:59,000
Speaker 7: my whole dad's families like that.

1191
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:01,680
Speaker 4: We won't ask about who they were rooting for yesterday.

1192
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:05,520
Speaker 4: Some things here, Henry, Hey, you are the number one

1193
00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:08,560
Speaker 4: defense in the league and points allowed and yards allowed

1194
00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:12,680
Speaker 4: and that's tremendous. And among others, you face two all

1195
00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:16,160
Speaker 4: world running backs this year, and Derek Henry and Christian McCaffrey.

1196
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:18,440
Speaker 4: But they're so different every week it feels like it's

1197
00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:21,120
Speaker 4: a different assignment that that has to keep life very

1198
00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:21,759
Speaker 4: interesting for you.

1199
00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:24,600
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean that's the NFL for you. I mean,

1200
00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:27,279
Speaker 7: I feel like everybody needs an all life runner. When

1201
00:52:27,280 --> 00:52:28,799
Speaker 7: we play against them, they you know, they give us

1202
00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:31,279
Speaker 7: their best shot. And not just the NFL, but you know,

1203
00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:33,760
Speaker 7: being able to face guys that you know are ultimately

1204
00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:36,480
Speaker 7: Hall of famers and we, you know, kind of do

1205
00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:38,360
Speaker 7: our job against them and hold them how we're supposed

1206
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:40,560
Speaker 7: to kind of just speaks to testament to our entire team,

1207
00:52:40,680 --> 00:52:42,720
Speaker 7: you know, our entire defense. We you know, that swarm

1208
00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:46,000
Speaker 7: metality that we have, that never letting down, never quit.

1209
00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:48,600
Speaker 7: You know, we're always gonna fight. That's just who we are.

1210
00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:52,000
Speaker 1: Henry had a long trip to Seattle for for a

1211
00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:57,080
Speaker 1: number of reasons, collecting, you know, collecting ourselves kind of

1212
00:52:57,080 --> 00:53:00,640
Speaker 1: getting ready, getting enough sleep, getting enough rest to get

1213
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:03,520
Speaker 1: ready for Sunday. What was that like, kind of coming

1214
00:53:03,560 --> 00:53:07,360
Speaker 1: off the tough night in Seattle, getting back early Tuesday morning,

1215
00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:09,920
Speaker 1: and then getting ready for Sunday at noon.

1216
00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:12,279
Speaker 7: Oh, that's probably one of the toughest things. I mean

1217
00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:14,919
Speaker 7: I've done. Was like literally Land, I didn't, we didn't.

1218
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:17,920
Speaker 7: I probably a couple of guys slept, but I doubt

1219
00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:20,319
Speaker 7: anybody slept. We were stat that adrenaline from the game,

1220
00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:22,839
Speaker 7: you know, reminiscing about the loss and think about what

1221
00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:25,719
Speaker 7: we could do better. But man, that was tough being

1222
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:27,520
Speaker 7: able to try to shake back and shake your body

1223
00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:30,520
Speaker 7: back to eating right, getting back on your normal schedule,

1224
00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:33,240
Speaker 7: your recovery, and then coming back in Wednesday and practicing

1225
00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:35,280
Speaker 7: like it's a normal week, like we just played Sunday.

1226
00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:37,359
Speaker 7: But I feel like we did a really good job

1227
00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:38,960
Speaker 7: of it, you know, And I think it starts up

1228
00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:41,160
Speaker 7: top with the coaches and and you know, the ownership

1229
00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:43,160
Speaker 7: of like spreading that message like we got to go.

1230
00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:45,680
Speaker 7: You know, there's no relaxing into this. We had to go,

1231
00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:47,000
Speaker 7: and that's how we approach this week.

1232
00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:50,080
Speaker 4: Henry Att bo Nix as the opposing quarterback this week,

1233
00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:52,640
Speaker 4: and I would imagine that it's possible that he was

1234
00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:55,160
Speaker 4: in college, you went to college, got out of college

1235
00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:57,680
Speaker 4: into the NFL before he got out of college, because

1236
00:53:57,719 --> 00:53:59,160
Speaker 4: he's been in college so long. But here he is

1237
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:01,399
Speaker 4: in the NFL in year too. He's played a lot

1238
00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:03,560
Speaker 4: of football in his life, and we're talking to Dimico

1239
00:54:03,560 --> 00:54:06,040
Speaker 4: about that. Guys who played a lot of big games

1240
00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:08,920
Speaker 4: in college, like you it's got to be great preparation.

1241
00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:12,000
Speaker 4: Even though it's not the NFL. There you are having

1242
00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:14,440
Speaker 4: been in big stadiums, big moments, and it's got to

1243
00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:15,520
Speaker 4: carry over someone.

1244
00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:17,600
Speaker 7: Oh what I'm saying, and then you know, not saying,

1245
00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:20,080
Speaker 7: I mean, I'm very biased. Like playing an SC ball

1246
00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 7: like those moments like that kind of builds you and

1247
00:54:23,360 --> 00:54:25,480
Speaker 7: shape you into coming into the league and playing.

1248
00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:27,960
Speaker 2: But you know, big time moments like that in college.

1249
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:30,279
Speaker 7: You know they're obviously the players are different, but but

1250
00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:33,000
Speaker 7: having that pressure, having that feeling and coming into it.

1251
00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:35,080
Speaker 7: You know, bo Nicks is a great player, huge challenge

1252
00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:37,240
Speaker 7: for us this week, and we're excited to face the Broncos.

1253
00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:39,400
Speaker 7: You played in college, right, yep, yep, yep when he

1254
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:42,520
Speaker 7: was at a result, Uh, he beat me once and

1255
00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:43,799
Speaker 7: I and I beat him once.

1256
00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:45,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I one one to gets him in college.

1257
00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:47,640
Speaker 4: So what we're there. We hear this all the time.

1258
00:54:47,680 --> 00:54:50,400
Speaker 1: Whenever I'm at SC media days or I'm down in

1259
00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:51,400
Speaker 1: the South, I always hear this.

1260
00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:54,800
Speaker 4: Albret Alabama's best robbery there is. It's the best robbery

1261
00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:57,080
Speaker 4: there is. There's no pro sports. It's just Alredy. You

1262
00:54:57,080 --> 00:54:59,640
Speaker 4: grow up, Aubrety, grow up Alabama. You were in it.

1263
00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:01,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was in it. I was back in the middle.

1264
00:55:01,520 --> 00:55:04,760
Speaker 2: Is that is that true in my opinion? Yeah?

1265
00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:07,239
Speaker 7: And then I think second to that is, you know,

1266
00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:10,520
Speaker 7: Tennessee and Alabama. Of course, third Saturday in October Center.

1267
00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:12,440
Speaker 2: I told baby ya gotta live for it, man.

1268
00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:17,239
Speaker 7: But that Auburn in that Auburn in Alabama the only

1269
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:21,640
Speaker 7: two football really big time football teams in Alabamas don't

1270
00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:22,440
Speaker 7: like it, like.

1271
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:26,080
Speaker 4: Wow, tremendous big rivalry. And do you feel that with

1272
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:28,440
Speaker 4: the with the Texans in the case of the Colts

1273
00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:30,600
Speaker 4: or any of the division teams, do you feel that

1274
00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:32,120
Speaker 4: yet or something like that?

1275
00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:34,840
Speaker 7: And I'm prove kind of I've kind of learned to

1276
00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:36,439
Speaker 7: to kind of grow in and hate them.

1277
00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,160
Speaker 2: Like I really didn't know nothing about NFL rivalries.

1278
00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:42,759
Speaker 7: You know, obviously the Niners in the Cowboy when I

1279
00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:45,160
Speaker 7: was young, but you know, when I got drafted, I

1280
00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:47,160
Speaker 7: I had no idea. And then like being here for

1281
00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:49,400
Speaker 7: the past three years, like I've kind of grown to

1282
00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:51,000
Speaker 7: learn and hate the people in our division.

1283
00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:53,319
Speaker 2: So I think that just comes with it, all right.

1284
00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:56,680
Speaker 4: So you played defense, obviously when you're on the sideline

1285
00:55:56,719 --> 00:55:58,759
Speaker 4: for as long as you were to begin the Wow,

1286
00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:01,680
Speaker 4: I mean that was a long the offense. It's gotta

1287
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:03,840
Speaker 4: be awesome playing defense like that. I'm on the sideline.

1288
00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:05,680
Speaker 4: We do it a great job. There's a big zero

1289
00:56:05,719 --> 00:56:08,319
Speaker 4: on their side of the scoreboard. It's awesome. But what

1290
00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:11,399
Speaker 4: about that the offense held the ball for so long?

1291
00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:13,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean that just maakes a testament to them. Man,

1292
00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:16,000
Speaker 7: they had a great game plan. And you know, whenever

1293
00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:18,040
Speaker 7: you can have an offense that does that and beats

1294
00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:19,759
Speaker 7: the defense down, and then they come back and do

1295
00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:21,120
Speaker 7: it again, and come back and do it again and

1296
00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:23,640
Speaker 7: obviously put points on the board, man, that makes our

1297
00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:25,360
Speaker 7: job so much more easier, you know, and then we

1298
00:56:25,400 --> 00:56:26,839
Speaker 7: can go out and get three and outs and then

1299
00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:29,920
Speaker 7: let them just kind of bruise on down. But man,

1300
00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:34,440
Speaker 7: they were methodical. They were really damn good. So and

1301
00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:36,239
Speaker 7: that's just a testament to everybody put in the hard

1302
00:56:36,239 --> 00:56:37,239
Speaker 7: work on the offensive side.

1303
00:56:37,520 --> 00:56:40,480
Speaker 1: You guys are such a physical defense. There's probably not

1304
00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:42,480
Speaker 1: a lot that impresses you. Had the offense goes down

1305
00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:44,319
Speaker 1: and scores, you get excited about it. See you guys

1306
00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:47,239
Speaker 1: on the sideline, you get excited about it. I would imagine,

1307
00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:51,279
Speaker 1: did you see British Brooks block on Kevin Gibbons. Is

1308
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:53,719
Speaker 1: that the kind of thing that would charge up you guys, like, Yo,

1309
00:56:53,840 --> 00:56:55,680
Speaker 1: do you see British just put that dude.

1310
00:56:55,520 --> 00:56:55,879
Speaker 4: On his back?

1311
00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:57,400
Speaker 1: Is that the kind of thing that gets you guys

1312
00:56:57,400 --> 00:56:58,960
Speaker 1: going when you see a physical play like that on

1313
00:56:59,000 --> 00:56:59,520
Speaker 1: the offense.

1314
00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:02,480
Speaker 7: We really didn't see it until we've seen it in

1315
00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:05,520
Speaker 7: the team in this past meeting. But whenever we can

1316
00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:08,279
Speaker 7: hear a loud bow, yeah, some big habit on it,

1317
00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:09,920
Speaker 7: And man, that that kind of feeds us. And that's

1318
00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:12,080
Speaker 7: that energy that that bleeds to all of us. And

1319
00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:13,880
Speaker 7: I know it's vice versa for the offense too. You

1320
00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:15,440
Speaker 7: know they bleed off of us, we bleed off for them.

1321
00:57:15,480 --> 00:57:18,280
Speaker 7: So man, yeah, that that hit was crazy.

1322
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:20,680
Speaker 4: That was nice. Oh man, So you've won three of

1323
00:57:20,720 --> 00:57:23,320
Speaker 4: your last four and you have to buy in there someplace.

1324
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:25,360
Speaker 4: So it feels like it's a long time here. But

1325
00:57:25,680 --> 00:57:28,360
Speaker 4: what's the common theme? How do you keep it going

1326
00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:30,040
Speaker 4: against the Broncos Henry.

1327
00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:33,200
Speaker 7: Consistency And you know the coaches harp on this all

1328
00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:36,640
Speaker 7: the time and we know this as players. If we

1329
00:57:36,680 --> 00:57:40,280
Speaker 7: can be consistent day in, day out practice and how

1330
00:57:40,320 --> 00:57:43,040
Speaker 7: we approach everything and how we play on Sundays and

1331
00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:44,920
Speaker 7: doing our job, Like that's ultimately what it is, like,

1332
00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:46,680
Speaker 7: just how many times can we do it over and

1333
00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:49,520
Speaker 7: over again and not shoot ourselves in the foot. I

1334
00:57:49,520 --> 00:57:51,680
Speaker 7: think we'll be really really great. And you know, the

1335
00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:53,840
Speaker 7: the US playing hard, US swarming is never the problem.

1336
00:57:53,880 --> 00:57:55,800
Speaker 7: It's just how consistent can we all be in doing

1337
00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:57,200
Speaker 7: our job and then we'll be good.

1338
00:57:57,720 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 1: So there was somebody who used to know used to

1339
00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:04,240
Speaker 1: use the rat poison. Oh yeah, don't don't take in

1340
00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:08,720
Speaker 1: the rat poison, And that was your former coach Alabama,

1341
00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:11,640
Speaker 1: Nick Saban. It feels like this is one of those

1342
00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:13,960
Speaker 1: situations in a sense, because after we came out of

1343
00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:16,760
Speaker 1: Seattle game, it was not hey we all love the Texans,

1344
00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:20,000
Speaker 1: it is hey, holy col San Francisco this weekend. My

1345
00:58:20,040 --> 00:58:22,919
Speaker 1: Texans didn't play very well against Seattle. Oh boy, now

1346
00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:25,680
Speaker 1: it's like, man, we just house San Francisco. Now again

1347
00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:27,560
Speaker 1: a run. Look how good we were, Look how good

1348
00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:28,240
Speaker 1: the defense was.

1349
00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:29,120
Speaker 4: Et cetera, et cetera.

1350
00:58:29,200 --> 00:58:31,040
Speaker 1: Now the rat poison comes and it's put on in

1351
00:58:31,080 --> 00:58:33,000
Speaker 1: front of your plate, Henry, how do you avoid it?

1352
00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:33,760
Speaker 2: You know?

1353
00:58:33,920 --> 00:58:36,000
Speaker 7: And then and then going back to coach Saban, like

1354
00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:39,480
Speaker 7: he had this really really good saying you're entitled to nothing.

1355
00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:43,880
Speaker 7: Then the rule of entitlement to nothing, like we're not

1356
00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:47,520
Speaker 7: entitled to winning next week, We're not entitled to going

1357
00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:49,200
Speaker 7: on a run, Like you have to come in and

1358
00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:51,720
Speaker 7: earn it every single day. And this that mindset of

1359
00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:54,000
Speaker 7: going in no matter if we win and lose last week,

1360
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:55,480
Speaker 7: like just how we lost the Seahawks, like.

1361
00:58:56,120 --> 00:58:57,640
Speaker 2: You have to come in every day. You have to

1362
00:58:57,640 --> 00:58:59,160
Speaker 2: earn it. You have to earn your win.

1363
00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:01,120
Speaker 7: You have to earn a you know that practice, you know,

1364
00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:04,040
Speaker 7: And that's kind of just to myset that we all

1365
00:59:04,080 --> 00:59:05,400
Speaker 7: have to have. And I know the guys know it,

1366
00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:08,800
Speaker 7: we all know it. But that miset of entitrement to nothing.

1367
00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:10,360
Speaker 7: You you're not entitled to nothing.

1368
00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:13,320
Speaker 4: One more for you. It's Legends Week here and special

1369
00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:16,280
Speaker 4: Day on Sunday inducting Janics McNair into the Ring of honor,

1370
00:59:16,360 --> 00:59:19,800
Speaker 4: the co founder the franchise, and also a record amount

1371
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:23,640
Speaker 4: of Legends former Texans players coming into town for the

1372
00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:26,320
Speaker 4: homecoming game. What does that mean to you to see

1373
00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:29,400
Speaker 4: the former players out there when they do show up

1374
00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:31,640
Speaker 4: to practice or wherever you might run into them.

1375
00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:34,400
Speaker 7: Man, it's huge, man, you know, And obviously this is

1376
00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:38,280
Speaker 7: our organization is fairly new to everybody else, but having

1377
00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:40,280
Speaker 7: guys that kind of set in stone how to play,

1378
00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:43,000
Speaker 7: you know, the JJ Wats, the Brian Cushions, the the

1379
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:46,080
Speaker 7: Andre John's, Like, that's who we look up to, and

1380
00:59:46,120 --> 00:59:48,360
Speaker 7: that's that's kind of the standard, the foundation of this

1381
00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:51,200
Speaker 7: organization and we try to live up to that.

1382
00:59:51,360 --> 00:59:53,160
Speaker 2: You know. I know when it was that when I

1383
00:59:53,160 --> 00:59:56,240
Speaker 2: was at Alabama. Man, like the ogs are the standard?

1384
00:59:56,360 --> 00:59:58,240
Speaker 7: Is the standard like, and that's how we approach it

1385
00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:00,280
Speaker 7: him when we see those guys here, Man, we don't

1386
01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:01,920

1445
01:02:57,800 --> 01:02:59,880
Speaker 4: We'll get to that in a moment or two. But Dave,

1446
01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:02,920
Speaker 4: have you been and have the Broncos been? This looks

1447
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:04,800
Speaker 4: like an outstanding start to the season.

1448
01:03:05,240 --> 01:03:08,640
Speaker 3: Always great to talk with you. Mark, Yeah, listen, they

1449
01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:13,360
Speaker 3: they have. They have found ways to win games, and

1450
01:03:13,400 --> 01:03:17,640
Speaker 3: they've done it in just about every every conceivable way

1451
01:03:17,720 --> 01:03:20,120
Speaker 3: that you can win an NFL game. But it's a

1452
01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:23,440
Speaker 3: it's a young team. It's a team that that I

1453
01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:28,360
Speaker 3: think is pretty talented and good defense, certainly in ability

1454
01:03:28,840 --> 01:03:31,120
Speaker 3: to rush the passer. They led the league last year

1455
01:03:31,120 --> 01:03:34,320
Speaker 3: in sacks, and I think they're every bit as good

1456
01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:37,480
Speaker 3: this year in terms of that category. So I think

1457
01:03:37,520 --> 01:03:40,240
Speaker 3: it's I think it's a team that has a high

1458
01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:42,040
Speaker 3: ceiling in this in this season.

1459
01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:45,440
Speaker 4: Are you surprised at all about bow Knicks. I know

1460
01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:48,160
Speaker 4: he looked good last year, but year two looks really good.

1461
01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:50,760
Speaker 4: The offense looks terrific overall. I know you're running the

1462
01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:53,840
Speaker 4: ball well, but what's your level of surprise if any

1463
01:03:53,840 --> 01:03:54,800
Speaker 4: on bow knicks.

1464
01:03:55,280 --> 01:03:58,560
Speaker 3: I'm not I would say this. I was a little

1465
01:03:58,600 --> 01:04:03,800
Speaker 3: bit surprised with how well he played last year. I mean, listen,

1466
01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:07,920
Speaker 3: I think you know everybody has an opinion on quarterbacks

1467
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:10,920
Speaker 3: coming out, especially first round quarterbacks, and you listen to

1468
01:04:10,920 --> 01:04:12,920
Speaker 3: all the draft stuff, which you and I do, and

1469
01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:15,480
Speaker 3: all the expert opinions and how this guy throws and

1470
01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:19,960
Speaker 3: what he can't do, and so you you, I think

1471
01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:24,000
Speaker 3: you develop an opinion, excuse me, of the quarterback before

1472
01:04:24,040 --> 01:04:27,680
Speaker 3: he even gets into training camp. But I liked him

1473
01:04:27,880 --> 01:04:30,640
Speaker 3: a lot just what I saw in training camp in

1474
01:04:30,760 --> 01:04:34,560
Speaker 3: terms of his accuracy, his ability to move around was

1475
01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:37,080
Speaker 3: a little bit more than I thought. I mean, I

1476
01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:39,960
Speaker 3: knew he could throw in the run, but I didn't

1477
01:04:39,960 --> 01:04:42,400
Speaker 3: realize he was as good an athlete as he is.

1478
01:04:42,840 --> 01:04:46,040
Speaker 3: I mean, he's he can really run, and they ran

1479
01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:47,920
Speaker 3: him a little bit last year. He hasn't run as

1480
01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:50,840
Speaker 3: much this year, but no, I think he has settled

1481
01:04:50,880 --> 01:04:56,160
Speaker 3: in very smart, understands as much as possible in his

1482
01:04:56,240 --> 01:04:59,600
Speaker 3: second year what Sean Payton wants to do an offense,

1483
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:02,280
Speaker 3: and I think he's been good for sure.

1484
01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:06,080
Speaker 1: Dave Nick Cassio told us that it's different with Peyton

1485
01:05:06,200 --> 01:05:09,560
Speaker 1: and Knicks versus say, Peyton and Drew Brees, who is

1486
01:05:09,640 --> 01:05:12,120
Speaker 1: obviously a Hall of Famer but was more of a

1487
01:05:12,120 --> 01:05:15,440
Speaker 1: pocket passer despite his size. Now Peyton's kind of got

1488
01:05:15,480 --> 01:05:17,919
Speaker 1: a new toy because Nicks can move around. So, well,

1489
01:05:17,960 --> 01:05:19,080
Speaker 1: what are your thoughts on that?

1490
01:05:19,920 --> 01:05:22,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Nick is right, you know, when you

1491
01:05:22,600 --> 01:05:25,360
Speaker 3: think about Sean and what he developed the New Orleans

1492
01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:30,040
Speaker 3: with Drew, and I'm certain, even though I wasn't there,

1493
01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:34,480
Speaker 3: that it took some time to kind of kind of mesh.

1494
01:05:34,640 --> 01:05:38,200
Speaker 3: But he had one of the great processors in one

1495
01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:43,160
Speaker 3: of the great pocket passers of our league's history in

1496
01:05:43,280 --> 01:05:46,560
Speaker 3: Drew Brees. So I think when you have a guy

1497
01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:48,560
Speaker 3: like that, and you have him for so many years,

1498
01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:52,280
Speaker 3: you just developed sort of an ability to almost convey

1499
01:05:53,080 --> 01:05:57,400
Speaker 3: to that quarterback what you want even without talking into

1500
01:05:57,480 --> 01:06:01,720
Speaker 3: his headset. And that's, at least from my perspective, that's

1501
01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:06,160
Speaker 3: sort of the beauty of the of the Peyton Breese marriage.

1502
01:06:06,240 --> 01:06:09,600
Speaker 3: I think Bow is different, and Nick pointed that out.

1503
01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:12,320
Speaker 3: I believe Bo is different in that I mean he

1504
01:06:12,400 --> 01:06:15,280
Speaker 3: can really run and I think he throws the ball

1505
01:06:15,480 --> 01:06:18,520
Speaker 3: very very well on the run. So how do you

1506
01:06:18,600 --> 01:06:23,280
Speaker 3: if you've had Drew Brees, how do you now embrace

1507
01:06:23,760 --> 01:06:27,440
Speaker 3: a kid like bow Nicks? And do you do you

1508
01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:31,160
Speaker 3: take advantage of some of the characteristics that he may

1509
01:06:31,160 --> 01:06:35,680
Speaker 3: have that Drew didn't. And also Drew has plenty of

1510
01:06:35,760 --> 01:06:38,760
Speaker 3: characteristics the bo doesn't right now in his second season,

1511
01:06:38,840 --> 01:06:40,640
Speaker 3: so I think Sean has done a good job of

1512
01:06:41,240 --> 01:06:43,680
Speaker 3: doing that. They do move the pocket some, they do

1513
01:06:43,760 --> 01:06:48,040
Speaker 3: get him outside on boots and waggles, and you know,

1514
01:06:48,160 --> 01:06:50,120
Speaker 3: I'm not saying that's the best part of his game,

1515
01:06:50,160 --> 01:06:53,200
Speaker 3: but it's it's a part of his game that I

1516
01:06:53,240 --> 01:06:54,760
Speaker 3: think he is really good at.

1517
01:06:55,480 --> 01:06:58,160
Speaker 4: And JK. Dobbins is really good. How's he fitting in

1518
01:06:58,240 --> 01:07:00,360
Speaker 4: averaging over five yards per carry?

1519
01:07:01,080 --> 01:07:05,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he mark In training camp, he to

1520
01:07:05,600 --> 01:07:09,040
Speaker 3: me was the juice of the offense. I mean, normally

1521
01:07:09,080 --> 01:07:11,240
Speaker 3: there's a lot of yapping going on in training camp.

1522
01:07:11,280 --> 01:07:13,880
Speaker 3: And you know, as a former player, I think back

1523
01:07:13,880 --> 01:07:17,000
Speaker 3: to those days. It's hot. You get tired of seeing

1524
01:07:17,040 --> 01:07:19,960
Speaker 3: the same guys, same coverages, you know, but the but

1525
01:07:20,080 --> 01:07:23,880
Speaker 3: defensive guys buy and large talk a lot more than

1526
01:07:23,960 --> 01:07:26,520
Speaker 3: offensive guys. I don't don't know exactly why, but it's

1527
01:07:26,560 --> 01:07:30,320
Speaker 3: been that way forever. In our league JK. Dobbins. Uh.

1528
01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:34,200
Speaker 3: And there's one practice in particular that was really spirited

1529
01:07:34,240 --> 01:07:38,600
Speaker 3: with Malcolm Roach and John Franklin Myers and uh uh

1530
01:07:38,720 --> 01:07:42,000
Speaker 3: you know the defensive defensive guys. Dre Greenlaw was in

1531
01:07:42,040 --> 01:07:44,960
Speaker 3: that and they're they're taking it to the offense and

1532
01:07:45,120 --> 01:07:49,960
Speaker 3: really uh shall I say, expressing themselves verbally and JK.

1533
01:07:50,080 --> 01:07:52,320
Speaker 3: Dobbins came right back at him. I mean he was

1534
01:07:52,400 --> 01:07:58,600
Speaker 3: yapping and running. Well, he's just a pro back, very patient, uh,

1535
01:07:58,840 --> 01:08:02,920
Speaker 3: still explosive. He's not that old as a back, hard

1536
01:08:02,920 --> 01:08:06,000
Speaker 3: to get on the ground, but what he brings them

1537
01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:09,120
Speaker 3: is a toughness to run between the tackles and an

1538
01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:12,560
Speaker 3: ability to break some tackles too. So I think he

1539
01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:15,520
Speaker 3: has been as valuable a pickup in the in the

1540
01:08:15,520 --> 01:08:18,080
Speaker 3: free agent market as anybody the Broncos have.

1541
01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:21,439
Speaker 4: Dave Logan, Voice of the Broncos with us. The sacks

1542
01:08:21,479 --> 01:08:23,640
Speaker 4: come from all over the place. Benito has eight. We

1543
01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:28,080
Speaker 4: all know that, but everybody's participating. What do they do

1544
01:08:28,160 --> 01:08:31,280
Speaker 4: that makes them so successful? Take it down the quarterback, Dave.

1545
01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:35,720
Speaker 3: Well, they're a couple of things. I think that when

1546
01:08:35,760 --> 01:08:40,559
Speaker 3: you have an edge guy like Benito and he's he's

1547
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:43,920
Speaker 3: not von Miller, but he's got he's got some of

1548
01:08:43,960 --> 01:08:47,879
Speaker 3: those characteristics. He's he's a little bit like Will Anderson,

1549
01:08:48,040 --> 01:08:52,679
Speaker 3: your guy to me, great bend, unbelievable motor, great get off.

1550
01:08:53,439 --> 01:08:58,519
Speaker 3: And so if Denver can get you into third down

1551
01:08:58,600 --> 01:09:00,880
Speaker 3: and long where you know it and we know it

1552
01:09:00,920 --> 01:09:03,400
Speaker 3: and everybody in the stadium knows that we're gonna have

1553
01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:07,040
Speaker 3: to throw the ball on this down, then the advantage

1554
01:09:08,560 --> 01:09:10,479
Speaker 3: is to the Broncos. I think you have two guys

1555
01:09:10,479 --> 01:09:13,360
Speaker 3: in Benito and Cooper Coops more of a power rusher

1556
01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:17,240
Speaker 3: but does have some wiggle as well. They've got good

1557
01:09:17,360 --> 01:09:20,160
Speaker 3: depth in the in their edge pass rushers. You know

1558
01:09:20,240 --> 01:09:23,760
Speaker 3: jon Ellis who's coming off a shoulder injury. Really he's

1559
01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:27,559
Speaker 3: a motor guy, which I love and and brings I

1560
01:09:27,600 --> 01:09:29,800
Speaker 3: think some swag to that position. And then they they

1561
01:09:29,920 --> 01:09:33,160
Speaker 3: they've had pretty good push inside with Zach Allen and

1562
01:09:33,240 --> 01:09:36,479
Speaker 3: John Franklin Myers and Malcolm Roach who now is healthy

1563
01:09:36,520 --> 01:09:38,960
Speaker 3: and getting back into it as well. So I just

1564
01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:43,640
Speaker 3: think they've been good, really good, and also advanced. Joseph,

1565
01:09:43,760 --> 01:09:46,800
Speaker 3: the guy that you're familiar with, he's done a nice

1566
01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:51,439
Speaker 3: job at at dialing up certain pressure packages they used

1567
01:09:51,880 --> 01:09:53,840
Speaker 3: in a game in London against the Jets and a

1568
01:09:53,960 --> 01:09:59,519
Speaker 3: must win situation. Uh, he had Telenoah Hufunga on some

1569
01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:03,679
Speaker 3: pressure from a safety spot. So they've got a versatile defense.

1570
01:10:03,720 --> 01:10:07,080
Speaker 3: I think it's an athletic defense for sure. And they've

1571
01:10:07,479 --> 01:10:09,800
Speaker 3: I mean they've they've been really good at pressure in

1572
01:10:09,840 --> 01:10:10,920
Speaker 3: the quarterback.

1573
01:10:10,760 --> 01:10:12,920
Speaker 4: Dave when the Broncos have beenen closed games and they've

1574
01:10:12,960 --> 01:10:15,479
Speaker 4: won these close games by and large. But when they've

1575
01:10:15,600 --> 01:10:19,400
Speaker 4: struggled at times throughout games. What goes wrong for them?

1576
01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:21,559
Speaker 4: What kinds of things have they needed to work on

1577
01:10:21,680 --> 01:10:22,679
Speaker 4: to improve their game?

1578
01:10:23,040 --> 01:10:27,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, inconsistent offense, there's been there. I think the primary

1579
01:10:27,200 --> 01:10:30,439
Speaker 3: bugaboo for them not being able to sustain drives, not

1580
01:10:30,439 --> 01:10:32,280
Speaker 3: being able to stay on the field, not being able

1581
01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:35,280
Speaker 3: to run the ball, certainly in the first half. Now

1582
01:10:35,520 --> 01:10:39,479
Speaker 3: last week was different for him, as they played really

1583
01:10:39,479 --> 01:10:43,720
Speaker 3: well against the Cowboys. But the Cowboys are horrendous defensively,

1584
01:10:43,800 --> 01:10:46,960
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean historically bad based on what I

1585
01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:50,639
Speaker 3: saw in that game here in Denver. So, but they've

1586
01:10:50,800 --> 01:10:55,559
Speaker 3: they've had some problems early in the game and they

1587
01:10:55,600 --> 01:10:58,880
Speaker 3: haven't you know, before the Giants game, which was two

1588
01:10:58,920 --> 01:11:03,040
Speaker 3: weeks ago, Kay Dobbins had twenty seven carries for six

1589
01:11:03,160 --> 01:11:06,120
Speaker 3: yards or more, which put him in the top five

1590
01:11:06,400 --> 01:11:09,800
Speaker 3: in that category six or yards or more runs. But

1591
01:11:09,960 --> 01:11:12,840
Speaker 3: twenty of those twenty seven carries came in the second half,

1592
01:11:13,320 --> 01:11:15,479
Speaker 3: so they had not been able to know they were

1593
01:11:15,520 --> 01:11:18,040
Speaker 3: better against Dallas. He had over one hundred yards rushing,

1594
01:11:18,439 --> 01:11:21,599
Speaker 3: but they hadn't consistently been able to kind of get

1595
01:11:21,600 --> 01:11:26,200
Speaker 3: the offense on tracked, and so that's been that's been

1596
01:11:26,280 --> 01:11:28,439
Speaker 3: really sort of what has bogged them down. But I

1597
01:11:28,439 --> 01:11:30,559
Speaker 3: will say this, last year, they were one and six

1598
01:11:31,160 --> 01:11:34,599
Speaker 3: in one score games. This year they're four and one.

1599
01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:39,759
Speaker 3: So they have found ways, in probable ways to manage

1600
01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:42,640
Speaker 3: to win games that they have been in in the

1601
01:11:42,640 --> 01:11:43,240
Speaker 3: fourth quarter.

1602
01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:45,800
Speaker 4: Dave, give me a player or two that you like

1603
01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:49,000
Speaker 4: to talk about that other people aren't talking about enough.

1604
01:11:49,120 --> 01:11:51,640
Speaker 4: Somebody who you think makes a difference. Maybe it's not

1605
01:11:51,760 --> 01:11:54,439
Speaker 4: a huge role, but it is a role that you

1606
01:11:54,680 --> 01:11:55,280
Speaker 4: like to watch.

1607
01:11:56,200 --> 01:11:58,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, playing wide receiver in the league for

1608
01:11:58,280 --> 01:12:01,200
Speaker 3: a long time, I sort of I'm always checking out

1609
01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:04,439
Speaker 3: wide receivers. The Broncos have a rookie wide receiver in

1610
01:12:04,520 --> 01:12:07,120
Speaker 3: Pat Bryant, who's a third round pick out of Illinois.

1611
01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:09,680
Speaker 3: I just think this young guy is going to be

1612
01:12:09,720 --> 01:12:12,240
Speaker 3: a really, really good player. He is starting to get

1613
01:12:12,280 --> 01:12:17,479
Speaker 3: involved more, starting to play more. He's tough, he will

1614
01:12:17,520 --> 01:12:22,080
Speaker 3: involve himself in the run game, digs out safeties, had

1615
01:12:22,080 --> 01:12:24,519
Speaker 3: his first touchdown reception last week and that win at

1616
01:12:24,560 --> 01:12:29,200
Speaker 3: home against the Cowboys. Sure handed doesn't have top end

1617
01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:32,400
Speaker 3: speed like great speed in the league, but he's got

1618
01:12:32,400 --> 01:12:35,559
Speaker 3: the requisite speed to be able to get open. He's

1619
01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:39,760
Speaker 3: an excellent route runner and the most important thing from

1620
01:12:39,800 --> 01:12:43,040
Speaker 3: my standpoint in terms of grading wide receivers when the

1621
01:12:43,080 --> 01:12:46,240
Speaker 3: ball is in the air, do you come down with

1622
01:12:46,320 --> 01:12:50,320
Speaker 3: the ball? Period? And Pat Bryant strikes me, is a

1623
01:12:50,360 --> 01:12:52,400
Speaker 3: guy that more times than not, the answer to that

1624
01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:56,120
Speaker 3: for him is yes. So I think he would be

1625
01:12:56,120 --> 01:12:57,800
Speaker 3: a guy to sort of keep your eyes on as

1626
01:12:57,840 --> 01:12:59,000
Speaker 3: the Broncos move forward.

1627
01:12:59,240 --> 01:13:01,680
Speaker 4: Dave, how good to this team be? You've seen the

1628
01:13:01,720 --> 01:13:05,800
Speaker 4: great Bronco teams you played with Elway, You've seen the

1629
01:13:05,840 --> 01:13:08,640
Speaker 4: Super Bowl with Manning, You've seen the ones in the

1630
01:13:08,720 --> 01:13:10,719
Speaker 4: nineties as well. What do you think?

1631
01:13:11,280 --> 01:13:13,880
Speaker 3: I think they can be really good. They've got a

1632
01:13:13,960 --> 01:13:19,360
Speaker 3: bunch of weapons. I love how they played defense. You know,

1633
01:13:19,479 --> 01:13:22,920
Speaker 3: losing Sir Tan, that's a big deal. That's I mean

1634
01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:27,000
Speaker 3: that's people say, well, you know, next man up, and

1635
01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:30,960
Speaker 3: that's fine. You have to have that mindset, I think

1636
01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:34,240
Speaker 3: in order to play in the league. But the next

1637
01:13:34,320 --> 01:13:36,280
Speaker 3: man up is not nearly as good as Pats or Tan.

1638
01:13:36,320 --> 01:13:38,360
Speaker 3: I'm going to tell you that. But I think that

1639
01:13:38,479 --> 01:13:41,120
Speaker 3: this is a team that, I mean certainly is a

1640
01:13:41,520 --> 01:13:44,080
Speaker 3: playoff team. They were in the playoffs last year, they

1641
01:13:44,120 --> 01:13:46,639
Speaker 3: won ten games with the rookie quarterback. I think they're

1642
01:13:46,680 --> 01:13:49,400
Speaker 3: better this year. I think they're starting to figure this

1643
01:13:49,439 --> 01:13:52,479
Speaker 3: thing out on offense. I think they're everybody's good, and

1644
01:13:52,520 --> 01:13:56,280
Speaker 3: they didn't play great down the stretch last year on defense.

1645
01:13:56,920 --> 01:13:59,519
Speaker 3: So I think it's a you know, I think it's

1646
01:13:59,560 --> 01:14:01,240
Speaker 3: a playoff team and a team that can win a

1647
01:14:01,240 --> 01:14:04,160
Speaker 3: playoff game, and maybe once you get in there, you

1648
01:14:04,160 --> 01:14:06,880
Speaker 3: and I both know anything can happen. I think Case

1649
01:14:07,800 --> 01:14:11,080
Speaker 3: looks like they have sort of righted the ship and

1650
01:14:11,160 --> 01:14:13,800
Speaker 3: they're going to be difficult. But the Broncos, you know,

1651
01:14:14,040 --> 01:14:17,400
Speaker 3: the Broncos feel good about the matchup with Kansas City.

1652
01:14:17,479 --> 01:14:21,840
Speaker 3: They'll have one coming up soon in Denver. So I

1653
01:14:21,840 --> 01:14:23,840
Speaker 3: think it's a playoff team that really can make a

1654
01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:25,320
Speaker 3: deep run if they stay healthy.

1655
01:14:25,800 --> 01:14:27,519
Speaker 4: Dave, we only have you for a limited time. I

1656
01:14:27,520 --> 01:14:28,800
Speaker 4: have so much to ask you, but I'm going to

1657
01:14:28,840 --> 01:14:31,240
Speaker 4: ask you this. You're a high school football coach winning

1658
01:14:31,360 --> 01:14:34,840
Speaker 4: multiple state championships in Colorado, and you're the voice of

1659
01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:37,599
Speaker 4: the Broncos, which is ridiculous in itself. Plus you played

1660
01:14:37,640 --> 01:14:40,559
Speaker 4: in the NFL. Plus you are drafted by baseball, the

1661
01:14:40,680 --> 01:14:43,840
Speaker 4: NBA and the NFL, which is also ridiculous. But you

1662
01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:47,160
Speaker 4: tell me what are you most proud of in your career?

1663
01:14:47,280 --> 01:14:50,200
Speaker 4: Is it the high school championships? Is it your NFL career,

1664
01:14:50,400 --> 01:14:52,280
Speaker 4: the fact that you were drafted by the three major

1665
01:14:52,360 --> 01:14:55,639
Speaker 4: leaguer sports or something else? Voice of the Broncos.

1666
01:14:55,720 --> 01:14:58,400
Speaker 3: You tell me, yes, you know what, mar and you

1667
01:14:58,400 --> 01:15:01,600
Speaker 3: and I have been friends a long time. That's a

1668
01:15:01,640 --> 01:15:05,519
Speaker 3: tough one. I think the fact that I mean, I've

1669
01:15:05,560 --> 01:15:08,640
Speaker 3: been the play by play voice. I mean, I've broadcast

1670
01:15:08,680 --> 01:15:11,640
Speaker 3: every Broncos game since nineteen ninety and I've been the

1671
01:15:11,640 --> 01:15:14,360
Speaker 3: play by play voice since ninety six. I think for

1672
01:15:14,439 --> 01:15:17,360
Speaker 3: a former player, you know, there aren't too many guys

1673
01:15:17,920 --> 01:15:20,599
Speaker 3: that are are the play by play voice, right, and

1674
01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:27,400
Speaker 3: so Steve Rabel and Seattle, You've got oh Man, Yeah,

1675
01:15:27,479 --> 01:15:32,320
Speaker 3: Jimmy Cefalo in Miami, you know three former wide receivers.

1676
01:15:32,320 --> 01:15:35,160
Speaker 3: I don't know if that matters at all, but so

1677
01:15:35,400 --> 01:15:37,880
Speaker 3: I'm really proud of that. When I got the opportunity,

1678
01:15:37,960 --> 01:15:40,240
Speaker 3: I thought they were kidding at first, and then I thought,

1679
01:15:40,280 --> 01:15:43,240
Speaker 3: Holy hill, I mean, you better figure out how not

1680
01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:47,280
Speaker 3: to be awful at this, because you know, not many

1681
01:15:47,280 --> 01:15:50,000
Speaker 3: guys that are players really get that opportunity or that call.

1682
01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:54,280
Speaker 3: So I'm proud of that. And I enjoy broadcasting Broncos

1683
01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:57,200
Speaker 3: games immensely. I enjoyed the high school thing, you know.

1684
01:15:57,280 --> 01:16:01,559
Speaker 3: I love football, love working with kids. Kids. The radio

1685
01:16:01,560 --> 01:16:04,080
Speaker 3: station has allowed me to miss a whole bunch of

1686
01:16:04,120 --> 01:16:06,640
Speaker 3: time in the fall during the afternoon show, so I

1687
01:16:06,680 --> 01:16:10,599
Speaker 3: can be at school and I'm here now and working

1688
01:16:10,640 --> 01:16:14,240
Speaker 3: with kids. I love that for sure. So i'd say

1689
01:16:14,240 --> 01:16:16,800
Speaker 3: those two things. I'm probably and I played in the

1690
01:16:16,880 --> 01:16:18,880
Speaker 3: league for a long time, And although it was a

1691
01:16:18,920 --> 01:16:22,400
Speaker 3: long time ago and it feels physically like it was

1692
01:16:22,400 --> 01:16:24,840
Speaker 3: a long time ago, I'm still proud of that as well.

1693
01:16:25,240 --> 01:16:25,559
Speaker 2: Well.

1694
01:16:25,600 --> 01:16:28,160
Speaker 4: How has coaching kids and we could probably do an

1695
01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:30,640
Speaker 4: hour on this, but give me your short answer or

1696
01:16:30,760 --> 01:16:33,599
Speaker 4: whatever answer you want to give. How has coaching kids

1697
01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:38,639
Speaker 4: changed since you've started coaching and being a player. You're

1698
01:16:38,720 --> 01:16:41,400
Speaker 4: very familiar with what it's like to be in a

1699
01:16:41,439 --> 01:16:44,080
Speaker 4: pro sports locker room obviously, but also a high school

1700
01:16:44,120 --> 01:16:46,840
Speaker 4: locker room as a player, but now coaching kids and

1701
01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:48,920
Speaker 4: having done it for what two and a half decades,

1702
01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:51,240
Speaker 4: whatever the amount of time is, it has to have

1703
01:16:51,360 --> 01:16:54,360
Speaker 4: changed with smartphones and the way kids are today or

1704
01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:55,280
Speaker 4: whatever the case may be.

1705
01:16:55,439 --> 01:16:58,240
Speaker 3: You tell me, yeah, it's been So this is year

1706
01:16:58,240 --> 01:17:00,840
Speaker 3: thirty six of Colin Bronco game. Since it's my thirty

1707
01:17:00,880 --> 01:17:03,880
Speaker 3: third season of being in a high school a head

1708
01:17:03,880 --> 01:17:05,559
Speaker 3: coach in high school, so I think I think the

1709
01:17:05,560 --> 01:17:10,800
Speaker 3: biggest change has been the parental involvement. I mean, kids

1710
01:17:10,800 --> 01:17:15,760
Speaker 3: buy and large, they want discipline, they want to learn football.

1711
01:17:17,040 --> 01:17:19,840
Speaker 3: Is it different coaching them than it was thirty years ago?

1712
01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:21,840
Speaker 3: For sure? It is because, as you mentioned, you have

1713
01:17:21,920 --> 01:17:25,519
Speaker 3: social media, you have Instagram, I mean there, you know

1714
01:17:25,640 --> 01:17:30,360
Speaker 3: there there are things that attract a young guy's attention

1715
01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:34,880
Speaker 3: that don't necessarily help you become a better football player

1716
01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:37,760
Speaker 3: or us become a better football team. And yet as

1717
01:17:37,800 --> 01:17:40,679
Speaker 3: a head coach you have to to a certain level

1718
01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:46,160
Speaker 3: accept that and try to guide them through. You know,

1719
01:17:46,320 --> 01:17:48,960
Speaker 3: four years of being in high school, you've got girls

1720
01:17:49,000 --> 01:17:52,360
Speaker 3: you've got grades, you've got college coaches recruiting, and you

1721
01:17:52,400 --> 01:17:56,840
Speaker 3: have all this social media interaction that sometimes can be

1722
01:17:56,920 --> 01:17:58,840
Speaker 3: fine and other times, you know what can get you

1723
01:17:58,840 --> 01:18:01,800
Speaker 3: into trouble. So it's you know, you just try to

1724
01:18:01,800 --> 01:18:05,360
Speaker 3: do the best you can. You try to give them

1725
01:18:05,680 --> 01:18:09,000
Speaker 3: some direction and give them some guidance and listen, if

1726
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:12,120
Speaker 3: you guys will listen, we're trying to get you to

1727
01:18:12,200 --> 01:18:14,799
Speaker 3: the next level here so that some of your education

1728
01:18:15,800 --> 01:18:17,800
Speaker 3: can get paid for and you can go play some ball.

1729
01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:21,000
Speaker 3: So but it's it's changed, there's no question about that.

1730
01:18:21,560 --> 01:18:24,519
Speaker 4: Dave. That's great stuff. We always appreciate the visit and

01:22:53,840 --> 01:22:56,800
Speaker 1: Interesting AND i was going back AND i was watching the,

1839
01:22:56,880 --> 01:23:01,160
Speaker 1: game and they had good mic down on the, field

1840
01:23:01,439 --> 01:23:04,400
Speaker 1: and at one point you hear, somebody WHICH i think is,

1841
01:23:04,439 --> 01:23:05,400
Speaker 1: you saying.

1842
01:23:05,200 --> 01:23:05,960
Speaker 4: Four, down four.

1843
01:23:06,040 --> 01:23:09,280
Speaker 1: Down and then a little while later you hear somebody

1844
01:23:09,320 --> 01:23:12,519
Speaker 1: say what are we doing? Here and it sounded like

1845
01:23:12,560 --> 01:23:14,840
Speaker 1: that might have been tightest and then you hear you

1846
01:23:14,880 --> 01:23:17,680
Speaker 1: say something again to, him and it just brought the

1847
01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:22,519
Speaker 1: communication that you guys have up, front how much of

1848
01:23:22,560 --> 01:23:25,200
Speaker 1: that has to be, verbalized how much of that you

1849
01:23:25,400 --> 01:23:28,080
Speaker 1: just kind of know because you've been playing next to

1850
01:23:28,080 --> 01:23:29,840
Speaker 1: the same guys now for a little while that you

1851
01:23:29,960 --> 01:23:32,680
Speaker 1: don't have to, say, hey we're gonna do this on this.

1852
01:23:32,760 --> 01:23:35,479
Speaker 1: Block you guys just know to do it as opposed, to,

1853
01:23:35,760 --> 01:23:37,680
Speaker 1: hey what are we doing? Here you, respond and then

1854
01:23:37,720 --> 01:23:40,240
Speaker 1: you're into something that you said or declared it at that.

1855
01:23:40,280 --> 01:23:43,840
Speaker 6: Moment, YEAH i mean there's definitely generic looks like he's

1856
01:23:43,880 --> 01:23:46,240
Speaker 6: mentioned like three, Four like you get an underwing front

1857
01:23:46,280 --> 01:23:48,559
Speaker 6: or undertim whatever people want to call. It, like that's

1858
01:23:48,560 --> 01:23:51,760
Speaker 6: pretty generic whatever we. Call most of the, time we

1859
01:23:51,800 --> 01:23:53,320
Speaker 6: could go up there and probably SAY i could say

1860
01:23:53,360 --> 01:23:55,240
Speaker 6: four down under and we can roll, yeah point the

1861
01:23:55,240 --> 01:23:56,640
Speaker 6: mic and we're, good don't have to make a call it.

1862
01:23:56,640 --> 01:23:58,320
Speaker 6: All but then there's other, stuff you, know when you

1863
01:23:58,320 --> 01:24:00,519
Speaker 6: get like third down, things there's a lot of funky,

1864
01:24:00,520 --> 01:24:02,760
Speaker 6: stuff like especially the past couple of, years the load

1865
01:24:02,800 --> 01:24:05,160
Speaker 6: fronts and stuff the defenses are doing. Now and so

1866
01:24:05,720 --> 01:24:07,920
Speaker 6: it really just. Depends like sometimes there's stuff we go

1867
01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:09,960
Speaker 6: up there And i'll Tell i'll tell guys during the

1868
01:24:09,960 --> 01:24:11,640
Speaker 6: week or even in the, huddle you, know before we

1869
01:24:11,840 --> 01:24:13,320
Speaker 6: before we break, It i'll, say, Hey i'm not gonna

1870
01:24:13,320 --> 01:24:15,200
Speaker 6: say what we're doing because those those defensive guys. LISTEN i,

1871
01:24:15,200 --> 01:24:17,320
Speaker 6: mean you say something four or five different, times and

1872
01:24:17,360 --> 01:24:19,400
Speaker 6: the same thing happens to. Them they're smart, Guys they're

1873
01:24:19,439 --> 01:24:21,160
Speaker 6: in the league for a. Reason they're gonna figure it.

1874
01:24:21,200 --> 01:24:23,439
Speaker 6: Out so it really just depends if it's something generic

1875
01:24:23,560 --> 01:24:25,400
Speaker 6: like LIKE i, said we could probably go up there

1876
01:24:25,439 --> 01:24:27,240
Speaker 6: and say, nothing but when when we get funky, looks

1877
01:24:27,240 --> 01:24:28,960
Speaker 6: youve got to over communicate. Stuff and at that, point

1878
01:24:28,960 --> 01:24:30,240
Speaker 6: it doesn't matter if they know what you're, doing they

1879
01:24:30,240 --> 01:24:30,960
Speaker 6: still got to stop it in.

1967
01:28:12,200 --> 01:28:14,280
Speaker 4: Me i'm gonna ask this one for all the kids

1968
01:28:14,320 --> 01:28:16,880
Speaker 4: playing sports out, there or maybe anybody playing any kind of,

1969
01:28:16,920 --> 01:28:20,799
Speaker 4: sports because the repetition you guys have in, quarterbacks center,

1970
01:28:20,880 --> 01:28:24,599
Speaker 4: exchange whether it be shotgun or just taking, snaps you'll

1971
01:28:24,600 --> 01:28:27,880
Speaker 4: always see you guys, working, working, working working on that

1972
01:28:28,040 --> 01:28:31,280
Speaker 4: element of the. Game it's so. Important AND i always tell,

1973
01:28:31,360 --> 01:28:34,559
Speaker 4: kids If i'm coaching, kids that you need to be

1974
01:28:34,880 --> 01:28:38,640
Speaker 4: repetitive so you can learn these things because work with the,

1975
01:28:38,680 --> 01:28:41,040
Speaker 4: apparatus work with the. Football can you speak to that a,

1976
01:28:41,040 --> 01:28:42,679
Speaker 4: bit the importance of, That, Jake.

1977
01:28:42,560 --> 01:28:45,839
Speaker 6: Yeah like it's repetition and you learn best by. Repetition

1978
01:28:45,960 --> 01:28:48,840
Speaker 6: but it's something that's really overlooked because a lot of

1979
01:28:48,880 --> 01:28:53,080
Speaker 6: football games you, watched it's not really a problem until it,

1980
01:28:53,160 --> 01:28:55,000
Speaker 6: is and then it's a big. Problem but the most

1981
01:28:55,040 --> 01:28:57,840
Speaker 6: important thing THAT cj AND i do every play is

1982
01:28:58,240 --> 01:29:01,320
Speaker 6: quarterback center. Exchange whether it's, shotgun round, center without a,

1983
01:29:01,320 --> 01:29:04,200
Speaker 6: snap we don't have. Anything you, know it's a dead.

1984
01:29:04,240 --> 01:29:07,160
Speaker 6: Play so working on that and, feeling, Okay i'm going

1985
01:29:07,240 --> 01:29:09,120
Speaker 6: left on this, play, like how how is it gonna? Feel,

1986
01:29:09,280 --> 01:29:12,360

2032
01:30:56,840 --> 01:31:00,639
Speaker 6: That and then going into other people, play you get

2033
01:31:00,640 --> 01:31:02,479

2038
01:31:13,160 --> 01:31:13,960
Speaker 6: really appealing to.

2039
01:31:14,000 --> 01:31:16,120
Speaker 4: Me you might have shown up on your pre draft personality.

2040

Speaker 2: THAT i was, like you can just.

2049
01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:37,120
Speaker 1: Tell you can see just some of the, leverage just

2050
01:31:37,120 --> 01:31:38,679
Speaker 1: the way you work your hips and things like. That

2051
01:31:38,920 --> 01:31:42,160
Speaker 1: for people that may not, KNOW i mean wrestling for

2052
01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:43,720
Speaker 1: a lot of. Guys and we've had a few over

2053
01:31:43,760 --> 01:31:47,040
Speaker 1: the years that have. Wrestled how what does wrestling.

2054
01:31:46,720 --> 01:31:47,719

2055
01:31:47,840 --> 01:31:50,000
Speaker 1: Jake and how do you use that in your football

2056
01:31:50,000 --> 01:31:50,960
Speaker 1: world to get to where you?

2057
01:31:51,000 --> 01:31:54,360
Speaker 6: Are it's it's the best sport for for you, know

2058
01:31:54,640 --> 01:31:57,439
Speaker 6: crafting a mentality in my. Mind here here it's one on.

2059
01:31:57,439 --> 01:31:59,640
Speaker 6: One nobody can come in there and save. You if

2060
01:31:59,680 --> 01:32:01,320
Speaker 6: you want to get out of, there you gotta you

2061
01:32:01,360 --> 01:32:04,600
Speaker 6: gotta roll over and and you, know get. In that's that.

2062
01:32:04,720 --> 01:32:09,960
Speaker 6: Whatever so that part of it's all, obviously you, know really.

2063
01:32:09,960 --> 01:32:14,799
Speaker 6: Appealing but the the the way it integrated with football

2064
01:32:15,080 --> 01:32:17,360
Speaker 6: was what was really appealing to. Me you, know, leverage, hands,

2065
01:32:17,400 --> 01:32:21,040
Speaker 6: balance stuff like. THAT i didn't really take it serious at,

2066
01:32:21,040 --> 01:32:22,720
Speaker 6: first and THEN i was, Like, Okay i'm pretty good at.

2067
01:32:22,760 --> 01:32:24,479
Speaker 6: It SO i think football made me good at, wrestling

2068
01:32:24,479 --> 01:32:26,880
Speaker 6: and then ONCE i got into, wrestling wrestling made me

2069
01:32:26,920 --> 01:32:29,599
Speaker 6: better at. Football and it's it's a great. SPORT i would.

2070

Speaker 6: Recommend i'll never make make my kids do, anything but

2071
