That's like, that's your hangout spot. That's 15 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 1: the place and Drew took dude Ahredy took a video 16 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,639 Speaker 1: of that. He's already over there getting some pre roll 17 00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: on staff. He's giving you kind of the sights and sounds. 18 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: Apparently todayo's a beautiful day over in London. Doesn't sound 19 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 1: like it's gonna be that for the next few days, 20 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 1: but it does sound like for the game, just checking 21 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 1: BBC Weather that may before the game. It may not 22 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:13,119 Speaker 1: be horrible, may not be horrible, but it'll be grant 23 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 1: cloudy apparently. But it does say that low chance of precipitation. 24 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,559 Speaker 1: So keep our fingers crossed during a game that won't happen, 25 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 1: but we will get there. When we get there, we've 26 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 1: got plenty to do.

Shadwick. So we've got plenty to do, So 35 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: let's jump right in to our hot Reeves Hot reachs 36 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: presented to you by Geico fifteen minutes can save you 37 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: fifteen percent or more on car insurance. And we start 38 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 1: with our trip to London, leaving on Thursday after practice midday, 39 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 1: the team and all of us getting on the plane 40 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: flying over, gonna get over there Friday in the morning, 41 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: London time, and go right through the practice field, get 42 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: a good practice in after the eight and a half 43 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 1: eight eight and a half to nine hour flight, and 44 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 1: then got all kinds of things going on. So I 45 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: don't know if anybody is going over there or headed 46 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 1: over there already over there and listening, but that's gonna 47 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: be kind of be it practice on Friday, and then 48 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:33,959 Speaker 1: Mark and I are gonna go over to the Barrel 49 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: Boy and Banker Pub. We're gonna be hanging out. Kevin Walter, 50 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: I know it's gonna be over there, gonna probably be 51 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,679 Speaker 1: smother ambassadors and other people are gonna be over there. 52 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: A lot of people going over for this trip, and 53 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: for good reasons historical first time the Texas ever played 54 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: on European soil, so they will do that on Sunday. 55 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 1: So that's what you have to look forward to, this 56 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: trip to London. And it's weird, it's kind of it's 57 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: kind of been in the back of our minds for 58 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: a while, like that London trip is still it's still 59 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 1: kind of out there. It's still kind of out there. 60 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 1: But obviously we had to get through a number of 61 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: hard fought games, one score games. They've all be one 62 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 1: score excepting Atlanta game. Kind of having to get through 63 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: all of that, and now it's like, okay, now we 64 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,399 Speaker 1: can focus on it. All that preparation that this whole 65 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: organization has been doing, Now we put it into focus. 66 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: Tomorrow the Texas will practice, we will fly out after that. 67 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 1: We'll get there on Monday morning. They will practice Friday morning. 68 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: When they get there thereabouts front of like late morning, 69 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: early afternoon when they get there. Then they'll have a 70 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: walkthrough on Saturday, and then Sunday we'll kick off two 71 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: thirty London time, eight thirty back here if daylight savings 72 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: time in America and the United States. So make sure 73 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: you turn your clocks back. You've a manuel clock on Sunday, 74 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: and don't miss the kickoff. Actually you won't miss the kickoff, 75 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: you'll just be an hour early if you haven't set 76 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: them back. London's already gone back their daylight savings time, 77 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: so instead of being six hours ahead, which they typically are, 78 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: the only five through this week through Sunday, I'm sorry, 79 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: through Saturday, and then on Sunday they'll go back here 80 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: in the States, and so that I'll make a six 81 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: hour time difference. So eight thirty kick here, two thirty 82 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: kick at Wembley Stadium in London. All right, let's get 83 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: to our next hot read. That is going to be 84 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: some transactions. Yes, Texas add a couple of players to 85 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 1: the practice squad. Anthony Chesley corner out of Coastal Carolina 86 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: or rookie, and also Eddie Vanderdos. Now, if you follow 87 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,799 Speaker 1: high school football recruiting at any point, then you should 88 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 1: remember the name. Eddie Vanderdos was a guy that was 89 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: committed to Notre Dame, ended up going to UCLA. Played 90 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: three years at UCLA Claire for the draft. Hasn't really 91 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: been able to find at home. But a very talented 92 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: interior player. Had some injuries when he was at UCLA. 93 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 1: I want to see add a knee injury when he 94 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: was at UCLA, but a very talented player. So two 95 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: players added to the practice squad Eddie Vanderdos and also 96 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: Anti Chesley. Another transact Brian body Calhoun brought back. I 97 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,119 Speaker 1: love it BBC. Ironically the week we're going to London, 98 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: BBC added to the roster for your Texans. Texans needs 99 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 1: some helping a secondary due to all the injuries. Unfortunately, 100 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 1: the other end of that transaction is JJ Watt going 101 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 1: to i R and he will miss the rest of 102 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 1: the season. So those are your transactions that have transpired. 103 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 1: Chesley vanderdos to the practice squad, BBC Brion Body Calhoun 104 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 1: goes to the fifty three man roster, and unfortunately the 105 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: great JJ Watt goes to R and our final hot read. 106 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna look for this because before Drew Dorty took 107 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: off for London, you get a chance to sit down 108 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: with a guy that's going to be the focus on 109 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 1: this defense Russian from the Edge with JJ Watton. Now 110 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: and I are, and that is Whitney Merciless. Drew caught 111 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: up with witt to talk about all kinds of different things. 112 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: Was it light going against Gardner, Minshew, going to London? 113 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: All the things that I'm sure Whitney thinks about. It 114 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: is off time set down with Drew. Here we go. 115 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: You are an international man of I'm not going to 116 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,719 Speaker 1: say mystery, but you've been around the world. We've seen 117 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: your travels over the years in your time as a 118 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: Houston Texans. So let's start right there. How much of 119 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: a challenge is it actually playing a game overseas you think, 120 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 1: I know you've not played overseas. You played in Mexico City, 121 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: but you know the time zone difference thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 122 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 1: from my travels across the world and all that, getting 123 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 1: adjusted tom wise, it's pretty difficult. And one way to 124 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,679 Speaker 1: do that is as soon as you land, it's morning 125 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: and you got to stay up all day. Yeah, just 126 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: really try to force your body to acclimate and just 127 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 1: allow yourself to crash and then just like get in 128 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: sync with the time difference that's over there. And so 129 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 1: now I haven't done anything that's physically straining when I traveled, 130 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 1: so this would be a different experience as far as 131 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: that goes. And as for a few guys over there, 132 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: some guys probably maybe one or two have been over 133 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: to London to play a few times in the careers, 134 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,160 Speaker 1: but for the majority of the team, we have not 135 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: done that. So it'll be interesting. Yeah, how energizing is 136 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 1: it to be in London and to get to play 137 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,280 Speaker 1: in London they get to be in front of a 138 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: different crowd than you normally are. Yeah, it's gonna be exciting, 139 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: different venue cross the pond, Yeah, of course, that's good. 140 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: That's a cool thought. And also I hear those fans 141 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: are like absolutely crazy. Just talking to a few guys 142 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: around the league who've done that travel a few times, 143 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: and I'm excited to get in front of that crowd. 144 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: See how crazy it is the atmosphere. And hopefully it's 145 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: not too cold. Hopefully it's not too cold. It's a 146 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: little bit chilly this time here, but nothing you can't handle. 147 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: You've played in much colder environments. And let's talk about 148 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: how this season has been for you. What's the deal 149 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: do you have? Is there like a magnet in your 150 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: body now because you're around the ball all the time, 151 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: it seems what's going on? Buddy? No, man, you know what, 152 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: God just designed that way for this year. I'm just saying, 153 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: you know, this is my thought. I just want to 154 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: get around the ball, just make sure that I'm creating 155 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: or impacting the game somehow, just to get the ball 156 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: back to the back to the offense, whatever it is 157 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,119 Speaker 1: is stripping it, intersecting it, or recovering a fumble, pretty 158 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: much like it just happens to be just right there. 159 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: And so I just want to try to continue that forward. 160 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: You know, it's a slow down just a little bit. 161 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: But it's all good. It's been fun seeing you play 162 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: so well, and it's also been fun seeing these celebrations afterwards. 163 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: You're part of quote unquote the Rock Boys. Can I 164 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: know mostly what it is, but for those that haven't 165 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: heard it, can you kind of explain where that came from, 166 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: who the Rock Boys are and what's going on with 167 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: all that? Oh? Of course, I would love to elaborate 168 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: Rock Boys. It's a great shout out for everybody in 169 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: the in the linebacker group itself. So b Max, the manager, 170 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: he came up with it, you know the name. But 171 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: to go back to how it actually started was during 172 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,559 Speaker 1: training camp. Yeah, it's like, okay, man, we make these 173 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: like great plays, you know, sacks and all that, and 174 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,439 Speaker 1: guys are celebrating individually. So it's like, how do we 175 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 1: get because everybody's involved in the play to make it happen, right, 176 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,439 Speaker 1: So how do we get more people involved and do 177 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: like a group celebrations. So we just it was just 178 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: me and Scarlett. We just messed around and it's just like, 179 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 1: you know, we're just playing a guitar, air guitar and 180 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: all that. Then Bmac jumped in and then now it 181 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: just snowballed. And then finally Bmac came up with a 182 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: name for it, and we've just been rocking with it 183 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 1: ever since. And so outside linebackers are the Rock Boys, 184 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 1: right BM Active Manager. Okay, that's how it is. And 185 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 1: then we got a collaboration with the LPC crew. Yeah, 186 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: the LPC crew is obviously the lunch pill crew, kind 187 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: of the interior defensive lineman. And you know, Dylan Cole 188 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 1: was sitting in your spot about a week ago when 189 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: we did this interview, and he said, he wedged himself 190 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: into the Rock Boys and he's the drummer because hey, 191 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 1: every good band needs a drummer. So that's kind of funny. 192 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: It's it's an inclusive process for guys that are making place. 193 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no doubt. And also, well we're still looking 194 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: for that singer as well too. I like it. I 195 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,319 Speaker 1: like it. Well, how do the Rock Boys, how does 196 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: the LPC? How do they come together and compensate for 197 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: the loss of a guy like JJ Watt? I know, 198 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: you don't, you know, replace a guy like that one 199 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 1: on one, but you gotta do things a little bit 200 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 1: differently now to kind of stem the tide. I suppose yeah, 201 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,319 Speaker 1: no doubt. First of all, guys got it now. It's 202 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: the next man up mentality Scarlett. Let's see Charles Yea 203 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 1: Barghevas and also Jacob who got to step up their 204 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 1: game as well too, just replacing Way it's some form 205 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: of fashion, and also just the ski team as far 206 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: as replacing such a monumental guy on defense as well too. 207 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 1: So the thing is we've got to just locking our keys, 208 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 1: just play that a whole lot better affect the game 209 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: in some type of shape or form. And we've got 210 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: to get a lot of penetration up front in the 211 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,559 Speaker 1: run game and the past game as well too. So 212 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: you know, it's nothing we're going to freak out about. 213 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: This has happened to us, you know before, and guys 214 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: stepped up then, and guys are gonna step up now. 215 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: And probably it doesn't hurt to have a mind like Romeo. 216 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: Cornell's helping orchestrate some of these things too, right exactly, Romeo, 217 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 1: he's gonna look at it, and I mean, of course 218 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,719 Speaker 1: they they're already looking at it early on and all that, 219 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: and so pretty much he's gonna look at what he asks, 220 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 1: what the skill set is, and adapt to it. And 221 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 1: so that's that's literally what this league is all about 222 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 1: is just adaptation. Yeah, Sunday morning, it'll be Central Time, 223 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 1: it'll be breakfast with the Texans. You guys will be 224 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: playing in the middle of the afternoon. So let's talk 225 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:52,719 Speaker 1: about the opponent. Gardner Minshew. He's not playing like a 226 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,319 Speaker 1: rookie who was drafted in the late rounds who's just 227 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 1: coming in and has a mustache. This guy can play. 228 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: I mean, he's got them in position they're due. Really well, 229 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:02,959 Speaker 1: what was the challenge initially when you saw him? And 230 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: how has he kind of grown over the last month 231 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,559 Speaker 1: or so? Man, So, Okay, the biggest thing is the 232 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 1: first time that we faced him. His composure is unusually 233 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: kind of reminded me of de Shaun Watson's composure when 234 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 1: he first came into the league, right, And the guy 235 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: just goes out there with a not care attitude, honestly, 236 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:19,959 Speaker 1: And so he's just trying to win a game and 237 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:22,719 Speaker 1: he's a competitor and I'd love to see that, and 238 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: it makes it tough for defenses to contain him. He's 239 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,199 Speaker 1: good at scrambling, making plays with either his feet or 240 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: scrambling outside the pocket and throwing balls downfield getting out 241 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,559 Speaker 1: of sacks as well too, So that'll be challenging. So 242 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 1: we've got to be able to contain him seeing him 243 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: grow over the letting you know, the course of the 244 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:40,959 Speaker 1: season since we've last seen him, he's done exactly that. 245 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: His confidence has definitely been boosted more and more and more, 246 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 1: and he's been more confident in his level of play 247 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:51,319 Speaker 1: and just making some health five plays out there. It's 248 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: actually impressive for a rookie. And so I think they've 249 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 1: done a great job as far as getting him ready 250 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 1: to play week to week. And you know, he's really 251 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,679 Speaker 1: embraced the embraced his role as far as that goes. 252 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: And so we're gonna have to contain them in the pocket, 253 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: allowing play quarterback, get them rattled off the spot. Really 254 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,319 Speaker 1: come there, we gotta we gotta be humming, But first 255 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: of all, we gotta take care of that run. So 256 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,199 Speaker 1: we turn them into a one dimensional team. How hard 257 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: is it to be humming against that offensive line? What 258 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: have you seen from them? Man? The group? There are 259 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: some holes in the group that you could take advantage 260 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 1: of on one on ones and things like that. They're 261 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 1: still solidly at the end of the day, no doubt, 262 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: and you cannot underestimate your opponent because that one time, 263 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: you know they will get you and flighting you on 264 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 1: your back, no question is. So we've got to be 265 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:33,719 Speaker 1: great up front, run some stunts things and things to 266 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: that nature, and so I think all we gotta do 267 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,559 Speaker 1: is just be conscientious of our rush so we don't 268 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 1: get broken off for like a twenty yard run by 269 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:43,959 Speaker 1: Minshu himself. You've seen a lot of variations of the 270 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 1: AFC South in your time. Is a Texan, I think 271 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 1: this has got to be the toughest, most rugged version 272 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 1: of it, you know, midway through the season that you've 273 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: ever seen, Right, all four teams are above or at 274 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: five hundred. Yeah, it's a pretty tough division, man, it is. 275 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 1: It is. And you know, saying it's my time coming 276 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: into the league, you know, yeah, there's been some there's 277 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 1: been one team that's always dominated, of course, the Colts whatnot, 278 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: and so, but over the course of years, as these 279 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: teams have built themselves up, you know, with the rosters, 280 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: with the coaches, the staff and things of that nature, 281 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 1: it's being it's become super super competitive over the last 282 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: few years or so. Then that's exactly what you're seeing 283 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,559 Speaker 1: right now. What has always been one of my favorites 284 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: to sit down and talk ball with, talk off the field, talk, 285 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: travel anything. Whit is kind of a go to and 286 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 1: I was glad that Drew had a chance to catch 287 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: up with him before Drew got on the bird and 288 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: went over to London early and awaits the team's arrival 289 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 1: early Friday morning.

I love the Rock Boys this year. 332 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 1: I feel like every year at a certain position group 333 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 1: really stands out as bringing the juice and the adrenaline. 334 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: And it's usually dB, sometimes it's wide receivers, but the linebackers, 335 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: the Rock Boys have really come into their own this year. 336 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 1: What's going on with the energy of that position group? 337 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: We just got we got a lot of good guys 338 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: in the room, a lot of playmakers in the room, 339 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 1: so a lot of opportunity to get out there and 340 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 1: rock out with the boys, and so the linebackers this 341 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: year just kind of taking that and you know, everybody 342 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: grabs an instrument and yeah, I would think we were 343 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 1: talking to Whitney Boddy. He said it was. It sort 344 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 1: of came about in training camp. You guys just messing around, 345 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: decided to whip out some instruments and that became a 346 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: celebration which became the Rock Boys. And now you guys 347 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 1: have your own T shirts. You provided the group of 348 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 1: T shirts recently. Yeah, we're we have a uniform now, 349 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 1: Oh it's a uniform. Okay, we do have a uniform. Um, 350 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: so it's not just straight chaos anymore. We've got some 351 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: structure to the rocket. Yes, you definitely. Well what happens 352 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: to the teenage mutant ninja turtle all black? Um, the 353 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 1: game day fits that you guys see that is that 354 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 1: separate from the Rock Boys. Okay, that is specifically in 355 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: the inside linebacker room. The outside linebackers don't take oh 356 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:05,640 Speaker 1: I see game group matching the matching here unless it's 357 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: a Rock Boys. Sure, unless it's the Rock Boys shirt. 358 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:12,199 Speaker 1: But um, yeah, that's the insiders thing. You guys are 359 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,360 Speaker 1: so calm and collected off the field, and then you're 360 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 1: on the field and you become the Rock Boys. I 361 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 1: want to talk about that transition one day in practice. 362 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 1: You know, we watch a little bit of practice. We 363 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,119 Speaker 1: watch you guys activate, which is the warming up period. 364 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: And then afterwards the entire team got into a huddle, 365 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 1: and I want to say was Bernardick McKinney was in 366 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 1: the middle and started doing his pregame huddle. You'd think 367 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,120 Speaker 1: it was a game day and you guys just were 368 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 1: just so energized. I find out later that that was 369 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,119 Speaker 1: a walkthrough. It was not even a little practice. But 370 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 1: the energy that you guys bring, Like, when does that 371 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 1: transformation sort of when do you guys just put on 372 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,199 Speaker 1: those rock boy hats and really get to work? How 373 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 1: about you think? I think just as soon as you 374 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 1: step on the field, you know, it's uh, you know, 375 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: we train all year round for the opportunities that we 376 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 1: have in the season, you know, so you know, you 377 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 1: have a lot of built up excitement and energy, and 378 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 1: you know the best way to perform it is using 379 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 1: that energy, you know. And you know, having obviously the 380 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 1: games you got sixteen for sure opportunities to go out 381 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 1: there and show your stuff. But even in practice, like 382 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: you know, those are limited opportunities too, And you know 383 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 1: all offseason you train and train and then you get 384 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,960 Speaker 1: those limited opportunities, So you might as well come listen, juice, Yeah, 385 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: you definitely do. So you're four for you and you 386 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 1: came I mean we remember when you were here as 387 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 1: an undrafted and here you are year four. You signed 388 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: the big contract extension before the season started. What about 389 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 1: those limited opportunities for you, because Bill Obriant says you've 390 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: done a really great job of taking your limited opportunities 391 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:51,120 Speaker 1: and turning into your role on the team. Now, how 392 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 1: did you manage that? Because now it seems like you're 393 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,439 Speaker 1: getting better and better because you have all the opportunities, 394 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: But how did you sort of make that jump? I 395 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 1: imagine it was harder early on when you weren't on 396 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: the field as much. Yeah. Yeah, I think the biggest 397 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: thing for me is just to continue to grow every day, 398 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 1: you know, regardless of what those opportunities look like. You know, 399 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: find a way, whether it be in practice, sitting back 400 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 1: and watching JJ Watt rush or watching the Whitney Merciless 401 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: set the edge, you know, and as a younger player 402 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 1: learning and like Okayking growing that way. I might not 403 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,640 Speaker 1: be out there getting those reps, but at least I'm 404 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,159 Speaker 1: I'm learning and seeing the you know, the footwork or 405 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: the hands or you know the techniques and you know 406 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 1: from their special teams. Let me make sure I'm the 407 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 1: best that I can be, and you know, continue to 408 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:43,120 Speaker 1: set goals, you know best. You know, I just want 409 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: to be the best out there. I want to win 410 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 1: every rep. So if I can do that, I know 411 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: I continue to grow as a player. And then you know, 412 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:51,640 Speaker 1: now on the defensive side of the ball, the same 413 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: thing goes and yeah, it's just something that I think 414 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 1: we'll continue through my career. But it's helped me to 415 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: this point. When you first started out, I imagine a 416 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 1: lot of guys who were undrafted to say they had 417 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 1: a little bit of a chip on their shoulder to prove, 418 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: you know, that they were someone that could contribute on 419 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,439 Speaker 1: a team. What was that like for you? What did 420 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,479 Speaker 1: you envision for yourself? Have you sort of exceeded your 421 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 1: expectations of where you thought you could be or is 422 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 1: this sort of what you had pictured for yourself that 423 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: you were going to be on the defense be a 424 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,439 Speaker 1: big part of it. You know, what did you think 425 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 1: as far as your NFL career starting out? I think, 426 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 1: you know, luckily, I grew up with a support system 427 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 1: and a close knit family that instilled a lot of 428 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: confidence in me. You know, my My parents did a 429 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: great job of you know, let me know that I 430 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: can do anything if I sent my mind to it. 431 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,919 Speaker 1: And you know, if you work and prepare, you can 432 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 1: do anything. So that's how I approached the game of football. 433 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 1: You know, regardless of where I'm at as a player, 434 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 1: I always see, you know, the the growth opportunity, the 435 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 1: potential of what it could be. So, you know, to 436 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 1: be where I am now in year four and having 437 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 1: art it as an undrafted free agent, I mean, I 438 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:08,440 Speaker 1: obviously it's hard to expect this to happen, but you know, 439 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 1: this is what I've worked for, you know, and and 440 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,399 Speaker 1: even now I continue to see, like I want to 441 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: continue that con trajectory and you know, see bigger, bigger things. 442 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 1: So it's kind of something that I would say I 443 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 1: give thanks to the parents for You are expected to 444 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 1: do a lot of things, both on defense and special teams. 445 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:30,880 Speaker 1: Like you mentioned, is there one aspect of your game 446 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: that is your most favorite thing that you get to 447 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: work on? I know you had the strip sack against 448 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 1: Carolina a few weeks so that had to have been 449 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,919 Speaker 1: pretty fun. You've caused some turnovers in your in your 450 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 1: time on special teams. Yeah, is there one play that 451 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: just really is the play that is most exciting, you know, 452 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: I think I think you hit it on the head there. 453 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: I think getting the ball out from the yeah, from 454 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 1: the offensive player and getting the ball back to our offense, 455 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 1: you know, so they can go down there and score. 456 00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: It's just that's a huge turn in the game. You know, 457 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 1: it's a big momentum swing. And do you know what 458 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 1: they say about Big Mo? What do they say about 459 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:09,640 Speaker 1: Big Moo? I don't know, but Big Moe man, he's uh, 460 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: he's important. I think that Mo on side. So if 461 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: you can get that ball out, then Big Mo is 462 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: gonna take one step closer to you. All Right, How 463 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: does Big Mo travel when it comes to London? You 464 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: got a big game in London coming up. I know 465 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 1: you're like a little bit of a world traveler, but yeah, 466 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 1: how does that change when you have to play overseas 467 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: first time for the Texans, to play in London, first 468 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: time for yourself as well. Uh? So Big Moe I think, 469 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: you know, you never know when when he'll show up, 470 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 1: but hopefully it's a it's on the first kickoff of 471 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: that first kickoff return and uh and he peeks his 472 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: head for the for the good guys. Are you excited 473 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:48,959 Speaker 1: about going over there and playing in front of those 474 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,880 Speaker 1: those English fans? I am, I am, I'm I'm really 475 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,719 Speaker 1: happy that, uh, this beautiful game of football is becoming 476 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 1: uh more of an international thing. Obviously, It's it's big 477 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: here and in America, and I think there's a lot 478 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: of opportunities for it to continue to grow worldwide. So 479 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: I'm really excited to be a part of that opportunity. 480 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: And I think actually having traveled to London this past 481 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 1: offseason and seeing the people in the sights and just 482 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 1: kind of the vibe of the city, I think it'll 483 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,199 Speaker 1: be a good fit for us as we go out there. 484 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 1: All right, So in the off season you did some traveling. 485 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 1: You also were doing some some video videos.

I think that there's 498 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 1: a certain performance aspect to it that I enjoy, you know, 499 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 1: And I can relate that to what I do now, 500 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:11,360 Speaker 1: you know, playing ball, and it's a performance. But there's 501 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 1: also an art to it, and I'm sure you can 502 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 1: appreciate that. Like, no, there's an art to what you do, 503 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 1: how you ask questions and how you formulate them and 504 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,360 Speaker 1: how you get your guests comfortable, stuff like that, right, 505 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: And so I think there's an art to it. So 506 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: you know that intrigues me as well, but um, you know, possibly, 507 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: but I really just have fun with it and creative 508 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 1: outlet for me. Now. So who knows when people watch you, 509 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,399 Speaker 1: because it's a very different side of you and your 510 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 1: teammates that they see versus what they see on Sunday. Yeah, 511 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,639 Speaker 1: what is it that you hope really gets across to 512 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: the fans that are watching TV? You know, b scar 513 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 1: TV is as you pointed out, it's it's the pursuit 514 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 1: of high quality content. So it is I'm b scar TV. 515 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: We want our viewers to see our guests and the 516 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 1: guys on the team for who they are, you know, 517 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 1: without the helmet, without the jersey. You know, these guys 518 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 1: are great dudes. They're all so different and you know, 519 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:11,160 Speaker 1: just to be able to see their individual personalities. It's 520 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 1: I think it's a cool opportunity for the for the 521 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 1: viewers and the fans to see the Texans kind of 522 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,399 Speaker 1: in a more relaxed state. I agree. I mean, you 523 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,160 Speaker 1: guys are having so much fun on and off the field, 524 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 1: why shouldn't everyone else get a chance to enjoy it? 525 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:27,439 Speaker 1: Good stuff? All right, We hope you have a lot 526 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 1: of fun as a season continues. Best of luck.

And the requisite follow up question is 530 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 1: who's going to replace him? And it's gonna take a 531 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 1: few people to do it, but one of the more 532 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,400 Speaker 1: important ones is going to be that man right there, 533 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 1: Brendan Scarlett. We care a little bit more pressure, but 534 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 1: if there's a guy that I know that will respond 535 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: to it, it's gonna be brend Scarlett. And look forward 536 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 1: to seeing what he does with a little bit more 537 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 1: time playing the edge, playing some defensive and playing some 538 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 1: stand up o LB. He does a lot of different 539 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 1: things and has done a ton of different things for 540 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,159 Speaker 1: this team since he got here, and he's one of 541 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,880 Speaker 1: the one of the key cogs to the engine, if 542 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 1: you will, and he will be that much more important 543 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday in London. All right, 544 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 1: coming up as a guy that played a lot of 545 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 1: European football, he played in Scotland, played for Amsterdam. He 546 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 1: knows what it's like. He also knows football better than 547 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,679 Speaker 1: anybody you're gonna find. And that's my good friend Clint Sterner. 548 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:33,159 Speaker 1: Coming up next on Texans All Access. We'llcome back to 549 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 1: a Wednesday nitition of Texans All Access from Monday Texans 550 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 1: Radio Studio.

You can hear him on our 554 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 1: postgame show Sean Pendergast and they do a hell of 555 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: a job. Every time I get in the car after 556 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: the game, which we haven't had him many home games. 557 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 1: When I do, I definitely tune in to listen to 558 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 1: my man, Clint Starner. Clint, how do you do my mam? Man, 559 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: I'm doing good. I'm doing great. Man. It's what a 560 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: week to be in Houston, Han Texans. Texans after a win, 561 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:09,399 Speaker 1: Rockets appear to be m awfully sexy to watch, and 562 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: then man, you got the Astros in in game seven, 563 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: so uh look, man, it's it's a good time to 564 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:16,919 Speaker 1: be here. Glad to be talking to you. Yeah, man, 565 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 1: it definitely is. Okay, I got a number of things 566 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: I gotta hit even before I get to the Texans. 567 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:26,639 Speaker 1: Number one, I know that Arkansas razorback blood just flows 568 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: through you and coach Chad Morris guaranteed victory against Mississippi State. 569 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 1: How do you feel about that? Well, I think they 570 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 1: may have misconstrued a little bit. I think he's I 571 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,200 Speaker 1: think he was more or less saying he's gonna play 572 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: whoever gives him a chance to win, They're going to win. 573 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 1: Like going down there to win a game necessarily not 574 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,400 Speaker 1: necessarily guaranteeing a win. But by the time it gets 575 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 1: to Houston, that's what it sounds like. Yeah. I mean 576 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: they're they're very very close. I mean, it's a football 577 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:58,920 Speaker 1: team that they've got very poor quarterback play and that 578 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 1: has really slowed them down. And I mean it's it's 579 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 1: it's it's hamstrung the team to a point of where 580 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 1: it appears that there's there's not a lot of good 581 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 1: and when in reality there is. They've got they've got 582 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:15,120 Speaker 1: some serious young talent, they've got some speed, they've got there. 583 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 1: They're scheming up some really really good schemes offensively, but 584 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,400 Speaker 1: the quarterback play, they're turning the football over way too much. 585 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 1: Four times in the first half last week, five times 586 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 1: in a game earlier in the season, any of that, 587 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: and so if they clean it up, man, they'll have 588 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 1: a chance to beat Mississippi State, because Missisippi States in 589 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 1: a similar position right now as far as a rebuild goes. Okay, 590 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: so yesterday, I'm listening to your show just two to six, 591 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: Aren't Flax of Sorts? Ray is six ten and they're 592 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 1: form you on the air, Jeremy Brannon Waite Smith and 593 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: you guys have Brandon Backy on. As Sean Pennergass knows 594 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 1: that's red meat a lark and the discussion of George 595 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,480 Speaker 1: comes up and there's four of you wearing George, and 596 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 1: I put all my money on Backy the guys from Galveston. 597 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: I was like, he's definitely wearing the Georgs. And come 598 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 1: to find out it's Clear Sterner wearing the George. Do 599 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: you have anything to say for yourself? Hey, man, look, 600 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: I'm okay with it. I'm okay with with bringing back 601 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: the old school George. Man. I like to push the 602 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:12,960 Speaker 1: envelope a little bit with the fashion every now in 603 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 1: the end, and the Georgs are coming back, and I 604 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: thought a j hints and Alex Bregman and had a 605 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:20,719 Speaker 1: little back and forth about it, and I thought, well, hell, 606 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 1: why not wear my George on Game six and see 607 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 1: if we can't bring a little bit of luck. Unfortunately, 608 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:27,959 Speaker 1: it didn't bring the luck, so I will not wear 609 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 1: them again for to Night Game seven. But yeah, man, 610 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 1: I'll push the limit a little bit posting George. I'm 611 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 1: over wrong with that. I love that. I love it. 612 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 1: Anything you do for the team, that's that's fantastic. That's 613 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 1: Clint Sterner just all about the team. What we saw 614 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 1: Clint on Sunday, and it's funny. Mark and I talked 615 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: about this. We talked about this with Obie, and of 616 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 1: course he didn't want to hear it, but we said it. Anyways, 617 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:52,960 Speaker 1: At some point in that game on Sunday against the Raiders, 618 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 1: the Texans are down nine starters playing an Oakland team 619 00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 1: that is sort of They've got a lot of young talent. 620 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say sort of like Arkansas got a lot 621 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 1: of young talent, but the quarterback positions a little bit 622 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 1: better for Oakland that gives him a chance with what 623 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 1: Derek Carr's doing. It felt like a game that, oh 624 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 1: my gosh, this is gonna be one of those games 625 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 1: where Oakland just does enough to win it, but they 626 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 1: deserve to win. And yet in the end, the Texas 627 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 1: end up pulling that one out with nine starters, sitting 628 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: out a lot of the second half, without JJ Watt, 629 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 1: obviously without Lonnie Johnson who had gone out to me 630 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: Clinton to us. It felt like a really gutty, gritty 631 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 1: win that the coaching staff and Deshaun Watson really kind 632 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 1: of helped pull that team through. How did you see 633 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 1: that win on Sunday against the Raiders? Well, I mean, gutty, 634 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:40,719 Speaker 1: gutsy and gritty are definitely two very accurate terms. I mean, 635 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 1: at one point, you look up and you've got Skipper 636 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 1: at right tackle and m clark at left tackle, and 637 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 1: then you know, you look up and you've got Crossing 638 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 1: and you've got Gary on Conley and Armstrong. I believe that. 639 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 1: I mean, he's going to practice squad moved up. Yep. 640 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 1: Those those are your three dvs that that are in 641 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: there with with read obviously, I mean those two scenarios 642 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:05,479 Speaker 1: there on both sides of football are very detrimental if 643 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 1: you get poor player tackled and then it's hard to 644 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 1: operate and execute on the offensive side of the ball. 645 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,960 Speaker 1: And defensively, if if you can't just sack the quarterback 646 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: every time. With JJ Watt going out, obviously, it's it's 647 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,320 Speaker 1: more difficult to get pressure when we're back end. You've 648 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 1: got guys that haven't proven they can cover he had 649 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 1: in this league and with the Houston Texans. I mean, 650 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: it was definitely a trying afternoon for the Texans. And 651 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 1: I mean, I'll say until I'm blue in the face, 652 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: whether it's whether it's just a tough game where you're 653 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 1: not executing very well, or there's key injuries across the board, 654 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 1: you know, or it's criddled with penalties, and and for 655 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 1: whatever reason, when a team can win those kinds of games, 656 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: you know the expectations. I expected Houston to win that 657 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 1: game by two touchdowns or more. But clearly you get 658 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 1: into the game and it's just struggle. And when you 659 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 1: can still come out on top, when you can do 660 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 1: what it takes in the end to get out of 661 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: that arena, get out of that stadium with a victory, 662 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:04,200 Speaker 1: then you're playing championship caliber football. And here's the deal. 663 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 1: I think what's the most telling thing about that game, John, 664 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 1: to me, was that it came down to the fourth quarter. 665 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: We can have, we can reask, we can discuss all 666 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 1: everything that went on for three and a half quarters, 667 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 1: but when it came down to the fourth quarter, late, 668 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 1: your defense, Garyon Connolly makes a play and breaks gets 669 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,719 Speaker 1: a past breakup, they punt to your offense. Your offense 670 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 1: choose up four minutes on the clock and takes a 671 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 1: knee on the ball. That's winning situational football and as 672 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 1: boring as it is. And then some people don't want 673 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 1: to hear about They want to talk about the injuries 674 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 1: and the flags, and when people get beat and poor 675 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 1: plays that right there is winning football when you're playing 676 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 1: high caliber football teams, there's no question. And Deshaun Watson. 677 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 1: You obviously, Clint, having played the position, you understand what 678 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: goes into playing that position. And it seems like right 679 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: now he is in some sort of groove with the 680 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 1: plays he's making, the things he's doing. I thought, Clint 681 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 1: early on in that game when he made a couple 682 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: of throws early on the first couple of drives and 683 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:07,960 Speaker 1: they were kind of not like the Deshaun throws we've 684 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 1: seen before. I mean, he missed Aiken's one time by 685 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 1: about two yards. I thought, boys, something's kind of off. 686 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 1: But then he sort of got into the game. The 687 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: RPO stuff that they've really brought out for him has 688 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 1: really been working for him. When they put him on 689 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 1: the run, put him on the move, that's really been helping. 690 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 1: What have you seen in the growth the last few 691 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 1: weeks of Deshaun? I mean, look, not everybody can do 692 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 1: the things he does, spinning out of tackles, getting kicked 693 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 1: in the eye, throwing a touchdown blindly, but just his 694 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 1: overall operation, the way he's running a Clint, what have 695 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 1: you seen in the growth of the Shawn, especially since 696 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 1: that Carolina game where the Texas last sixteen to ten. Well, 697 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 1: there's a couple of couple of things you mentioned there, John, 698 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 1: You know, I think overall, Deshaun Watson is he's doing 699 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 1: a great job of playing within the system, being a 700 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:57,200 Speaker 1: distributor for the majority of the game. But when certain 701 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:00,120 Speaker 1: situations come up and you need to be aggressive, you 702 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: need to keep a play alive, or you need to 703 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 1: get kicked denye and go make a play. Um, you 704 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 1: know he's able. He's obviously able to do that to me, man, 705 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:12,320 Speaker 1: and I heard John Cruden postgame talk about Deshaun Watson's 706 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 1: ability to play unscripted, like the out of the pocket, 707 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 1: the extending plays, the things that a coach doesn't call 708 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 1: within a play call, the things that a coach doesn't 709 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 1: expect the quarterback to execute, the off script stuff. Deshaun 710 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 1: Watson is absolutely killer at right and and I and 711 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 1: the unscript stuff is what I believe. That's how Deshaun 712 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: Watson puts this team in position to win a championship. 713 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:41,240 Speaker 1: That's how Bill O'Brien puts this team in a position 714 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:43,120 Speaker 1: to make a run of the playoffs and win a 715 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 1: championship is how good can they become and how and 716 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:52,760 Speaker 1: how how long can they stay on script, on time, 717 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 1: in rhythm, and then when the one or two or 718 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 1: three plays pop up where Deshawn's gotta beat Deshaun and 719 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 1: put his cape on, he goes in that. And so 720 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:04,719 Speaker 1: to me, it's about it's about continuing to play on 721 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 1: script as much as they possibly can and be as 722 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 1: clean within that time as you possibly can. And then 723 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 1: when it comes time, you just let de Shan go 724 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,360 Speaker 1: be de Sean. But the kicker there is you've got 725 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 1: to constantly work. If you're seventy five percent on script 726 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: right now, it's pretty damn good. And we get to 727 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: eighty five by the time the playoffs kick. Can you 728 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 1: get to ninety by the second round? You know? And 729 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 1: then you're playing good, clean football. The offensive lines is 730 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:35,920 Speaker 1: playing efficient upfront, they're protecting the run game benefits. I mean, 731 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 1: there's just it's got to be a constant. It can't be. Well, 732 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: we won, that was a good recipe. No, No, You've 733 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 1: got to keep working on the on script stuff and 734 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:48,320 Speaker 1: let the all script stuff happen when when when the 735 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:52,799 Speaker 1: situation presents itself. And so there's a nice little, uh 736 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 1: massaging of that to me, of that on script all 737 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 1: script type of stuff that's going on between Deshaun Watson 738 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:02,279 Speaker 1: and the play call Bill O'Brien, and it's fun to watch. 739 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,400 Speaker 1: It gives it gives this team a chance in the 740 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,319 Speaker 1: end down the road if they keep progressing. It gives 741 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:10,880 Speaker 1: them a chance to really be in in those games 742 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 1: and win games in the forward quarter versus the best 743 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,479 Speaker 1: teams in the in the in the league. Talker Clint 744 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 1: Starner who played at Arkansas from Baytown, but he also 745 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 1: played over in the World League Clinton, did you ever 746 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 1: play in London? I know you played, you know at 747 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:29,719 Speaker 1: Amsterdam or in Amsterdam that was your home base? Correct? Yeah. 748 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 1: One year I was in Scotland in Glasgow, Scotland, which 749 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,799 Speaker 1: is very close to London, and I played one year 750 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:36,239 Speaker 1: there and then I went and played another year. A 751 00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 1: couple years later I played in Amsterdam and there were 752 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,360 Speaker 1: six teams in the league. We never played. There was 753 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 1: not a team in London. I had some teammates when 754 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:45,359 Speaker 1: I was in Scotland that were from London that play 755 00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 1: American football in London during the year, and then they 756 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 1: came and played in the NFL. Europe League with us 757 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,920 Speaker 1: up in Scotland, so I'm familiar with some of the players. 758 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 1: I'm familiar with some of the league that the league 759 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 1: that goes on in London. But but no, we didn't 760 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 1: play literally in London. We flew through there to get 761 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 1: to Scotland. We're flying in and out of Scotland to 762 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:06,480 Speaker 1: go to games. But for the most part, I haven't 763 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 1: played in London, but Europe absolutely all over the place, 764 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:12,320 Speaker 1: and clute, what was that experience like, Well, there's London, Scotland, 765 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 1: just just playing football in Europe, which I know a 766 00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,360 Speaker 1: few years back and I don't want to date you, 767 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 1: but it's it's been a few years since the NFL 768 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 1: really made this sort of stance of playing in London 769 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 1: on an annual basis of playing four five games, and 770 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 1: that might increase over the years because it does feel 771 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 1: like the fans in London love seeing these teams come 772 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:36,839 Speaker 1: over there. They you know, all thirty two teams are 773 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 1: seemingly represented on the fans with their jerseys, etc. But 774 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 1: I would imagine that playing in Europe is just a 775 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 1: completely different ball game, just everything is different about it. 776 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:50,759 Speaker 1: What was your experience like playing in Europe? Well, from 777 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:54,000 Speaker 1: a fan standpoint, there's there's not as many fans obviously. 778 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,800 Speaker 1: Now this is Europe ten years ago and in NFL 779 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 1: Europe ten years ago, so the the appeal um of 780 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 1: the players isn't what it is obviously with the Texans 781 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 1: going over there. But um it's it's it's not as 782 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:12,480 Speaker 1: they're not. There's not as many um, you know, fans 783 00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 1: as there there are here in the United States. I mean, 784 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,800 Speaker 1: Deshauna Watson can go to California and get flocked in 785 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 1: a in a restaurant line he's trying to eat. I 786 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 1: don't know that that's going to be the case all 787 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 1: over Europe. But when when you when you do go 788 00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 1: over there, the fans that do follow American football and 789 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:32,239 Speaker 1: the fans that do come to the game, they are passionate, man. 790 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 1: I mean the Europeans are. It's unbelievably passionate about the 791 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 1: game of soccer, right, I mean the game of soccer 792 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 1: over there. I mean there's riots and fights and I 793 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:45,440 Speaker 1: mean it's crazy to the point where when I was 794 00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 1: playing in Europe, they were like, don't go to the 795 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 1: soccer games because something's liable to break out at any 796 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,920 Speaker 1: point in time. Versus rival teams, you know, so that 797 00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:56,680 Speaker 1: they're extremely passionate about their sports and and and the 798 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 1: ones that do pick up on American football and follow 799 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 1: them American football, they are very very passionate about American 800 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 1: football in there and whoever they're following. So I think 801 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 1: it's I think it's just a really cool experience. I 802 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,719 Speaker 1: think it's it's super cool for these for these athletes. Man, 803 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I was. I can relate to ninety nine 804 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 1: point nine percent of the athletes in the NFL. You know, 805 00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 1: I was. I was born and raised in the South 806 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 1: side of the Tracks. I never would have left the 807 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 1: state of Texas if it wasn't for football. And I 808 00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:26,800 Speaker 1: looked up, I looked up in the NFL Europe, and 809 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 1: I'm playing ball in different countries. So ninety percent of 810 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 1: these guys would never go Overseas if it weren't for 811 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 1: the game of football. And so, uh, super cool. I 812 00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 1: tell you. Safety is a real problem over there, because 813 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 1: these guys will be targets. Everybody knows they're coming in 814 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,399 Speaker 1: um and and you gotta take the good, the bad, 815 00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:47,239 Speaker 1: and ugly. Safety will be a problem and keep keep 816 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:48,879 Speaker 1: a close high on the players, and I make sure 817 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:50,960 Speaker 1: they don't wonder too far from the from the hotel 818 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:54,759 Speaker 1: or the practice field. Food is a real problem over there, 819 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,919 Speaker 1: because it's not that they don't eat the exact same 820 00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,840 Speaker 1: way we eat here, um, you know. And then in 821 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:03,800 Speaker 1: game stuff is maybe a problem because it's hard to 822 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 1: manage whether they're letting like noisemakers into the into the arena. 823 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:10,400 Speaker 1: When I was playing man, there was whistled. They let 824 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,400 Speaker 1: whistle oh that be blown in the stands, and so 825 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 1: it was. It was very frustrating. So definitely a challenge, man, 826 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:19,239 Speaker 1: But what an experience with these guys to get to 827 00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:20,799 Speaker 1: go old here to do it. I've heard you say 828 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 1: that before on the air, about being from Baytown and 829 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 1: having the opportunity to go play internationally and just playing 830 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 1: NFL and all those things that you have as a 831 00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:32,239 Speaker 1: result of playing football, And I'm glad you brought that up, man, 832 00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:33,360 Speaker 1: because I think there are a lot of guys that 833 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 1: feel that way. Clint Sterner you can hear him two 834 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,720 Speaker 1: to six our flagship sports Radio six ten, and definitely 835 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 1: tune in for the post game early edition, but the 836 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 1: games starting at eight thirty local time. Clint's gonna Beyond 837 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 1: with Sean I believe on Sunday, so you want to 838 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:49,440 Speaker 1: tune in and hear the man break it down like 839 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:51,319 Speaker 1: no other. Clinton, the best of man. Thank you so much. 840 00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:53,239 Speaker 1: We'll talk to again next week. Brother, you guys, brother, 841 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 1: thanks for having me. I'll be good. One of the 842 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:57,840 Speaker 1: things I love about having Clint on with me is 843 00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:01,720 Speaker 1: the perspective he provides, but also the perspective he owns. 844 00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,759 Speaker 1: And he talked about that, saying, look, man, I came from. 845 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 1: I heard him tell the story a few months back 846 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,279 Speaker 1: on the air, and I was like, man, I want 847 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:11,239 Speaker 1: him to I want to talk about that a little 848 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:13,240 Speaker 1: bit more with him. And he talked about what football 849 00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 1: has done for him in opening him up his eyes 850 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 1: to travel the world basically to play this game and 851 00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,360 Speaker 1: open up opportunities, and he was so thankful for that, 852 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 1: and I always I loved hearing that when I was 853 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:25,759 Speaker 1: listening a few months back on the radio he was 854 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:27,919 Speaker 1: telling that story. I would love to hear more about 855 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,719 Speaker 1: his Amsterdam stories, but that's probably for another date and time, 856 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: and probably not for Sports Radio Sixen, to be honest, 857 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,800 Speaker 1: given where those stories can go once you go to Amsterdam. 858 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:40,680 Speaker 1: There's no doubt. Now. One of the things I love 859 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 1: about this week of shows when we played the Jacksonville Jaguars. Now, 860 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 1: I love going to Jacksonville. Last year we went to Jacksonville, 861 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:50,680 Speaker 1: had a chance to catch up with my former players, 862 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 1: and it's been a while since I've coached them, and 863 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 1: you know, I'd talked to him like, well, yeah, you know, coach, 864 00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:57,480 Speaker 1: I just got married. I've been married now for a 865 00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:00,040 Speaker 1: couple of years. And another one's saying, oh, yeah, so 866 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:02,719 Speaker 1: I got you kids in third and fifth grade. I'm like, 867 00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,440 Speaker 1: these these guys were kids. They were younger than my 868 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:08,320 Speaker 1: daughter when I first met them, and so Jacksonville is 869 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 1: always a pretty special trip to me. But now we're 870 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,920 Speaker 1: obviously not going to Jacksonville. We're going off to London, 871 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:15,759 Speaker 1: which is fine, and we're gonna see some of the 872 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,120 Speaker 1: same people and one of my friends, a guy that 873 00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,440 Speaker 1: I've known for a very long time. The voice of 874 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,759 Speaker 1: Jacksonville to me is Frank Franjie. He's become a good 875 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:26,280 Speaker 1: friend from Afar. Even when I was living in Jacksonville, 876 00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:27,560 Speaker 1: I got a chance to know him. He is a 877 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:30,360 Speaker 1: fantastic dude. He is a play by play voice of 878 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,280 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars, and he caught up with Mark Vandimir 879 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:34,880 Speaker 1: to break this one down. We'll how that were you 880 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 1: next on Texans All Access. You are looking live at 881 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:42,399 Speaker 1: NRG Stadium for a Wednesday night edition of Texans All 882 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:46,520 Speaker 1: Access from the Hunday Texans Radio Studio. And this is 883 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 1: Brent Musburger. That's actually what Brenton would have sounded like 884 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:51,560 Speaker 1: if he were doing the show. But he's not. And 885 00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 1: I probably should have used that last week when Brent 886 00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:57,440 Speaker 1: was coming in, but that was for the Raiders. Brent 887 00:42:57,480 --> 00:42:59,880 Speaker 1: took over a couple of years ago as the Raiders 888 00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:02,720 Speaker 1: prepared for a move to Las Vegas. And that's actually 889 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,960 Speaker 1: where Brent, I think resides is in Las Vegas, so 890 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,439 Speaker 1: it's gonna actually work out for him. But this week 891 00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:12,680 Speaker 1: it's about the Jacksonville Jaguars. Well, before we get there, 892 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:16,319 Speaker 1: this week's stats Challenge is brought to you by Schlumberg. 893 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:20,319 Speaker 1: Visit Houston Texans dot com today to register to take 894 00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:25,279 Speaker 1: the stats Challenge.

It 953 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,960 Speaker 1: shuts down early. Um, you know hard party was like 954 00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 1: John Harris, gonna be hard for him because they shut 955 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:25,000 Speaker 1: it down about eleven o'clock. The old guys like you 956 00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,719 Speaker 1: and I will be okay. But but it's a fun place. 957 00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:30,400 Speaker 1: It's so it's a fun place to go. On Saturday, 958 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:32,800 Speaker 1: they have sort of a street party to celebrate the 959 00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:35,440 Speaker 1: NFL with those teams involved, which is a really cool thing. 960 00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:37,879 Speaker 1: So for people that haven't been market. It's been awful 961 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 1: lot of fun, so I know you're gonna have a 962 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 1: good time over there. What do your players say about 963 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:46,359 Speaker 1: body acclamation, the body clock, getting yourself ready to play 964 00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:48,239 Speaker 1: an NFL game? What have they learned over the years 965 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:51,239 Speaker 1: about it? You know, it's funny. We fly at night. 966 00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:54,839 Speaker 1: We fly, we leave about eight o'clock or so, eight 967 00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 1: hour flights, so we get in there and what would 968 00:46:56,760 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 1: be four am hour time, nine am there time you 969 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:02,040 Speaker 1: try and sleep on the plane. That's the big thing. 970 00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:05,000 Speaker 1: And they go right to practice day, they stress, get loose, 971 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:07,040 Speaker 1: and then they go right to practice. Which you don't 972 00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:08,480 Speaker 1: want to do is sleep all day and then you're 973 00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:10,560 Speaker 1: never used to it. So the idea is to get 974 00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:12,400 Speaker 1: right to practice and then I think they have meetings 975 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 1: afterwards and then by then it's an early night because 976 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:16,640 Speaker 1: they're kind of tired. So that's what's worked for them 977 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:20,239 Speaker 1: in terms of the schedule. I think going Thursday, having 978 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 1: it there or so to get acclimated. It hasn't been 979 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 1: a big It hasn't had a big, big effect on 980 00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 1: this team. I think they've gotten accustomed to it. I 981 00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:28,719 Speaker 1: think they know how to do it now, and I 982 00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:30,279 Speaker 1: think that's a big part of it, so I think 983 00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:32,160 Speaker 1: they I think they've kind of learned the drill. Mark, 984 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:34,000 Speaker 1: I really do. I know all of us. First time 985 00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:35,880 Speaker 1: I went, man, I don't think I ever got over. 986 00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:38,439 Speaker 1: I think I think I was mumbling during my game call. 987 00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,560 Speaker 1: But by Monday or Tuesday, I think we felt more. 988 00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:43,759 Speaker 1: I'm more back to normal. But I think by now 989 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 1: we're all kind of used to it. Frank Frangchie, voice 990 00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:48,440 Speaker 1: of the Jaguars with US on Texans Radio. Okay, what 991 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:51,120 Speaker 1: about the fans. One more about London. The fans you 992 00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:53,840 Speaker 1: see over there. I've heard that different jerseys are worn 993 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:58,799 Speaker 1: because they're NFL fans, not necessarily fans of the team. Yeah, 994 00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 1: I think there'll be more act than anything else because 995 00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:03,680 Speaker 1: we've become sort of a quasi home team over there, 996 00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:06,720 Speaker 1: so you'll see more Jacks jersey than you will other teams. 997 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:09,799 Speaker 1: But having said that, you'll see everybody you will see, 998 00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:13,040 Speaker 1: and teams with big followings to go for the first time. 999 00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,120 Speaker 1: I guess the Texans will be this way. I could 1000 00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:17,040 Speaker 1: tell you the first time when played the Eagles over 1001 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,000 Speaker 1: there last year, there were tons of Eagles fans because 1002 00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:21,040 Speaker 1: they've never made the trip before. But yeah, you will 1003 00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:23,000 Speaker 1: see they all were at jerseys too, bro, so you 1004 00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:25,800 Speaker 1: will see more NFL jerseys from more different teams. I 1005 00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:27,160 Speaker 1: think the first year I went, I was kind of 1006 00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:31,640 Speaker 1: astounded by that mark. I think I probably counted fifteen 1007 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,239 Speaker 1: sixteen teams at one walk around the stadium. I think 1008 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,360 Speaker 1: I could probably counted fifteen or sixteen for half of 1009 00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:39,600 Speaker 1: the NFL team. So it's colorful, it's kind of neat. 1010 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:41,719 Speaker 1: They've had to learn how to cheer. It's a different 1011 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:44,320 Speaker 1: kind of cheer than you're used to, and, believe it 1012 00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:45,840 Speaker 1: or not, even your players have to get used to 1013 00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:47,920 Speaker 1: that because you're you know, you're players who used to 1014 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,719 Speaker 1: a certain cadence of the crowd. Home crowd acts a 1015 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,200 Speaker 1: certain way, the road crowd acts a certain way. Well, 1016 00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:55,239 Speaker 1: these these tands are learning kind of how to cheer 1017 00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:58,200 Speaker 1: a little bit. It'll be a very different experience for 1018 00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,000 Speaker 1: you and for that team, for sure. Frank Franchis, Voice 1019 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:03,720 Speaker 1: of the Jaguars with us. Okay, what about the team itself? 1020 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:06,680 Speaker 1: Here you are at five hundred, are you surprised? How 1021 00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 1: do you feel about the first half of the season 1022 00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:12,239 Speaker 1: for the Jaguars. I gotta tell you, and I think 1023 00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:15,640 Speaker 1: this The feeling around here is to have lost your 1024 00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:19,520 Speaker 1: quarterback eleven plays into the season, Mark eleven plays. You 1025 00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:22,560 Speaker 1: spend eighty eight million dollars on Nick Bold and you 1026 00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:26,120 Speaker 1: lose him eleven plays in. Then have all the Jalen 1027 00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:28,600 Speaker 1: Ramsey stuff Jalen wanted out of here. They you know 1028 00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:30,600 Speaker 1: the whole story by now. By now all about the 1029 00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 1: confrontation or the discussion with the front office that he 1030 00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:38,680 Speaker 1: asked for a trade a day later. I think everybody 1031 00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:41,160 Speaker 1: knows the drill. To lose your best defensive player, one 1032 00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:43,080 Speaker 1: of the best corners in the league is not the best. 1033 00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:46,840 Speaker 1: To lose your quarterback eleven plays in, and then you 1034 00:49:46,920 --> 00:49:48,160 Speaker 1: look up and you're right in the middle of the 1035 00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:50,000 Speaker 1: race and you're four and four. It's a pretty good 1036 00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:52,960 Speaker 1: four and four. The rookie quarterback's pretty good. I think 1037 00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:56,960 Speaker 1: everybody knows that. Now. Now, look, they've beaten struggling teams 1038 00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,919 Speaker 1: that yet they're struggling. The Bengals are struggling the Bronch 1039 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,440 Speaker 1: it was a struggling. The wins have come against bad teams. 1040 00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:04,440 Speaker 1: They have to see if they can do it against 1041 00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 1: good teams, and that, of course starts in London. I 1042 00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:09,839 Speaker 1: thought the Texans. Jack Warred getting the first time around 1043 00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:11,719 Speaker 1: was pretty good. Game came down to a two point 1044 00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:14,680 Speaker 1: conversion and Leonard Fournette was stopped about an inch short, 1045 00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:16,840 Speaker 1: and there was a one point game. So but now 1046 00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:19,319 Speaker 1: I think, all told, they feel pretty good about where 1047 00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:21,440 Speaker 1: this team is. Okay, what about Minshew? And I know 1048 00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:23,600 Speaker 1: you probably get asked all the time about what happens 1049 00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:27,000 Speaker 1: when Falls gets back? But what happens when Falls gets back? 1050 00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:30,600 Speaker 1: Frank I did get asked all the time. I don't 1051 00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:33,040 Speaker 1: think anybody knows that answer. I think let's see what 1052 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:36,960 Speaker 1: happens in London. If the Jags win, that's three straight wins. 1053 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:40,799 Speaker 1: He's played very well, thirteen touchdowns, only two intersteps. He's 1054 00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:43,560 Speaker 1: way beyond where a speed. Mentally, I think everybody knows 1055 00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:45,920 Speaker 1: that he's got a good arm, not a great arm. 1056 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:50,120 Speaker 1: He's mobile, he's got he's got a little moxie about him. 1057 00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:53,200 Speaker 1: There's something special about this guy that nobody would debate. 1058 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:56,680 Speaker 1: Chat having said that you're committed, this team committed themselves, 1059 00:50:56,680 --> 00:50:59,400 Speaker 1: didn't expold you don't make the commitment. Someone said, well, 1060 00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:02,120 Speaker 1: you gotta play. They're gonna play poles through their pative. No, 1061 00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:04,640 Speaker 1: that has nothing to do with it, but you paid 1062 00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:07,160 Speaker 1: him because you're committed to him being your guy for 1063 00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:09,279 Speaker 1: the next three years. So I don't know which way 1064 00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:11,640 Speaker 1: they're gonna go. Honestly, I don't know that dog does. 1065 00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 1: I have stuck about that the other day and he 1066 00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:16,840 Speaker 1: told me he really doesn't know, and I tend to 1067 00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:19,759 Speaker 1: believe him. I don't think they've decided. I think the 1068 00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:22,359 Speaker 1: feeling is as an open day after the game, play 1069 00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:24,640 Speaker 1: the game, see what happens when you play the game, 1070 00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:27,120 Speaker 1: catch your breath, and then and then see what happens. 1071 00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:29,799 Speaker 1: My guest is Mark. At some point it folds, will 1072 00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:33,520 Speaker 1: quarterback this team again, whether it's the week after the 1073 00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:36,760 Speaker 1: buyron out, will see? All right? Tell me about DJ 1074 00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 1: Shark and what you're getting out of him. I mean, 1075 00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:41,120 Speaker 1: this guy's really making a lot of noise right now 1076 00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:43,400 Speaker 1: with the six touchdowns, six hundred and sixty yards. What 1077 00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:46,360 Speaker 1: are you seeing? Yeah, he's a good player at LSU. 1078 00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:48,640 Speaker 1: He's got all the measurable He's six foots four, he's 1079 00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:51,279 Speaker 1: two hundred pounds. He can run. He reminds you Boddy, 1080 00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:53,080 Speaker 1: he reminds you of Hopkins a little bit in terms 1081 00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:55,560 Speaker 1: of the way he looks. He did not catch a 1082 00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:58,120 Speaker 1: lot of balls at LSUCK. He probably got fifty sixty 1083 00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:01,040 Speaker 1: balls his whole career there. So for that reason, he 1084 00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:03,640 Speaker 1: wasn't the most seasoned there skilled guy. I had learned 1085 00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:04,920 Speaker 1: how to catch the ball. He kind of thought the 1086 00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:07,919 Speaker 1: ball a little bit Marcus first year. Now he's really 1087 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:10,160 Speaker 1: worked on that. He's a good pass catcher, and the 1088 00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:12,720 Speaker 1: other stuff was there. He's really fast, he's very athletic, 1089 00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:15,200 Speaker 1: he works really hard. He's got a toughness about him. 1090 00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:18,840 Speaker 1: He's good. This guy's going to be legit. It's a 1091 00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:21,160 Speaker 1: good We have never had a great receiver for him, 1092 00:52:21,160 --> 00:52:22,879 Speaker 1: you know. We had. We had Jimmy Smith and Keenan 1093 00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:25,400 Speaker 1: McCardell in the early years in the nineties, and since then, 1094 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:27,760 Speaker 1: it just hasn't been a very good core. It's pretty 1095 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,600 Speaker 1: good now. Deeedi Westbrook's a good player. Chris Conley got 1096 00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:32,320 Speaker 1: buried a little bit in Kansas City, but now that 1097 00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:34,520 Speaker 1: he's here, he's a good player. So I wouldn't mind 1098 00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:36,759 Speaker 1: having a tight end. Tight End play hasn't been very good. 1099 00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:38,600 Speaker 1: But as far as the white receivers, they've been pretty good. 1100 00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 1: I thought you were on your way with Alan Robinson 1101 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 1: and Hearns and those guys. They were looking like a 1102 00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:46,840 Speaker 1: good young crew, but it never quite materialized, right, that 1103 00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:48,800 Speaker 1: was part of it. And look, Alan Hearns is a 1104 00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:52,600 Speaker 1: really good player, and Alan Hearns is the best teammate 1105 00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:54,799 Speaker 1: of all the time. But those guys weren't very fast. 1106 00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:56,560 Speaker 1: We've gotten into it. We've gotten a time in the 1107 00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:59,200 Speaker 1: league I think, and maybe you just agree with this, 1108 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:01,919 Speaker 1: but we've gotten to a time in the league where 1109 00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 1: possession receivers have had to give away to guys that 1110 00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:06,640 Speaker 1: can run. I mean, look at Fuller. I mean, who's 1111 00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:08,520 Speaker 1: faster than Fuller in this league? And he's the second 1112 00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:11,520 Speaker 1: rest receiver on your team. So I think we've gotten 1113 00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:12,839 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Mark, I think we've gotten 1114 00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:15,399 Speaker 1: where guys have to run as good as as good 1115 00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:17,640 Speaker 1: as a rob and Hearns and Markus Lee where they 1116 00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:19,879 Speaker 1: all came into the league together, none of them took 1117 00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:22,680 Speaker 1: the top off the defense. These three guys can all run. Now, 1118 00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:24,799 Speaker 1: this is three guys that can run. They haven't had 1119 00:53:24,840 --> 00:53:29,160 Speaker 1: that before. What's different about Fournette if anything? Seven yards 1120 00:53:29,239 --> 00:53:32,000 Speaker 1: my goodness, five yards per carry. The guys doing really 1121 00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:34,719 Speaker 1: well for him, Well, he's healthy, he was hurt most 1122 00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:37,440 Speaker 1: of last year. And last year it got away from 1123 00:53:37,440 --> 00:53:40,239 Speaker 1: the Jaggers for whatever reason. They had a lot of 1124 00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 1: young guys. You started wondering if they were playing for 1125 00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:45,239 Speaker 1: each other or are playing for themselves a little bit. 1126 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:47,560 Speaker 1: I think they would tell you that in a very 1127 00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:49,560 Speaker 1: introspective moment. I think most of the guys on the 1128 00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:53,640 Speaker 1: team would tell you that. I think Leonard recommitted himself 1129 00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:56,280 Speaker 1: went to Wyoming in the off season. Mark really really worked, 1130 00:53:56,560 --> 00:54:00,319 Speaker 1: got himself in great shape. He's he's the running him now. 1131 00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:03,040 Speaker 1: He gets all the carry they throw it to him 1132 00:54:03,080 --> 00:54:05,480 Speaker 1: out of the backfield, and I think he's healthy. I 1133 00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:07,359 Speaker 1: think he's in shape. I think he's a year older, 1134 00:54:07,360 --> 00:54:09,319 Speaker 1: a year of more mature, and he's having a terrific year. 1135 00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:12,640 Speaker 1: But this whole team, look, I'm Jayleen Rams. He is 1136 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:14,640 Speaker 1: a magnificent player and everybody hated to see him go 1137 00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:15,920 Speaker 1: to be sent a good player, and he was a 1138 00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:18,120 Speaker 1: hard worker and he cared. He wanted to be the 1139 00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:20,560 Speaker 1: best in his craft. So there's no negative stuff about Jalen. 1140 00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:25,320 Speaker 1: Yet it's got to where this team. I think this 1141 00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:27,480 Speaker 1: team plays for each other more now than it has 1142 00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:29,840 Speaker 1: in many many years. I think you can sense that. 1143 00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:31,759 Speaker 1: I think you can feel that, and I think there's 1144 00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:34,120 Speaker 1: a pretty good vibe in that locker room. Frank Frangie, 1145 00:54:34,239 --> 00:54:35,960 Speaker 1: voice of the Jaguars with us, Frank, give me a 1146 00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:38,600 Speaker 1: player too. That doesn't get pub that. You think more 1147 00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:42,399 Speaker 1: people should be talking about somebody's doing well for you. Yeah. 1148 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:44,719 Speaker 1: I think there's some under the radar guys, some of 1149 00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:47,120 Speaker 1: the young second year guys, Tavin Bryant starting to play 1150 00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:51,520 Speaker 1: well along that defensive front. Josh Allen's getting a lot 1151 00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:53,399 Speaker 1: of pubs, so I guess he wouldn't qualify as that guy. 1152 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:55,520 Speaker 1: He's getting a lot. I think the two safeties, the 1153 00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:57,800 Speaker 1: two young safeties, remember it ad to Sean Gifton is 1154 00:54:57,800 --> 00:55:02,399 Speaker 1: there now? And Church who better in safeties? Who kind 1155 00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:05,040 Speaker 1: of anchored that defense when the team was the defense 1156 00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:07,200 Speaker 1: was so good two years ago? They're gone. So the 1157 00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:10,359 Speaker 1: two young safeties, Jerry Wilson's played well, Ronnie Harrison's played well. 1158 00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:12,960 Speaker 1: This young defensive tackle the first round or a year ago, 1159 00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:16,000 Speaker 1: Taven Bryan. When Caven Brian came into the league, he's 1160 00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:18,319 Speaker 1: six foot five to sixty five and kind of looked 1161 00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:20,480 Speaker 1: in a uniform like JJ Watt and everyone said he's 1162 00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:21,920 Speaker 1: j J Watt. Well he's not Ja, but he's the 1163 00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:23,960 Speaker 1: tackle is the three technique. He's not an end. They 1164 00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:25,520 Speaker 1: tried him an end the last year. He didn't play 1165 00:55:25,560 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 1: the well. So he's starting to play better. The Wan 1166 00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:30,440 Speaker 1: Smoot is a draft pick a third round or three 1167 00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:32,279 Speaker 1: years ago that they thought maybe they had missed on. 1168 00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:34,799 Speaker 1: He's got two sacks already. He's starting to play better. 1169 00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:36,520 Speaker 1: So some of the young guy. And I'll give you 1170 00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 1: one more guy, hup and eye and Trey Herndon the 1171 00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:42,080 Speaker 1: cornerback number thirty seven. Mark. He's a guy that had 1172 00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:44,680 Speaker 1: to He's an undrafted guy out of Vanderbilt that had 1173 00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:47,640 Speaker 1: to go in and play. When they traded Jalen and 1174 00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:50,719 Speaker 1: people thought, oh boy, well he had two interceptions last week. 1175 00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:52,279 Speaker 1: And I mean good interceptions. I don't mean bought the 1176 00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:53,719 Speaker 1: pumped in his hands. I mean he went dove and 1177 00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:56,880 Speaker 1: went and got him. The week before against Cincinnati, he 1178 00:55:57,000 --> 00:55:59,600 Speaker 1: thought he had an intercept head was overturned by replay. 1179 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:02,719 Speaker 1: This guy's got two picks, almost three. He's been a 1180 00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:04,960 Speaker 1: really good cornerback for them, so he's played pretty well. 1181 00:56:05,480 --> 00:56:07,680 Speaker 1: Excellent stuff, Frank, all right, one more for you. I 1182 00:56:07,719 --> 00:56:10,120 Speaker 1: don't think anybody should be surprised that the AFC South 1183 00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:13,080 Speaker 1: has all four teams at five hundred or better. But 1184 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:15,279 Speaker 1: it's the way they got there. I think that is 1185 00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:17,120 Speaker 1: a little bit of a surprise at the very least. 1186 00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:20,479 Speaker 1: What about the Titans and the Cults, your quick thoughts 1187 00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:23,719 Speaker 1: on them, Yeah, I'm not surprised that you Phoby were set. 1188 00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:25,040 Speaker 1: I know him a little bit when he was at 1189 00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:28,400 Speaker 1: Florida before he transferred to NC State. I said on 1190 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,759 Speaker 1: my day on my daily radio show. Watched it. He's 1191 00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:33,800 Speaker 1: not Andrew the Locks. Nobody's gonna do luck, but he 1192 00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:36,200 Speaker 1: is a really good player and they will not take 1193 00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:38,480 Speaker 1: the step back to people thinking. The people on the 1194 00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:40,319 Speaker 1: radio show with me look like I had a blue head. 1195 00:56:40,320 --> 00:56:42,800 Speaker 1: But I'm telling you, I'm not surprised by that. I 1196 00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:44,359 Speaker 1: don't know what to make of the Titan I think 1197 00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:48,240 Speaker 1: they're a good, tough, physical football team. Mariota got benched. 1198 00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:50,960 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what to make of him. Mike, he's 1199 00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:52,880 Speaker 1: a good friend of bothyers in mine and Mike and 1200 00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:54,800 Speaker 1: I talk about it a lot. I'm not sure he 1201 00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:57,319 Speaker 1: knew where they were headed with Mariota. So I don't 1202 00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:59,120 Speaker 1: know what to make of the Titans. The tough, nos 1203 00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:01,279 Speaker 1: physical football teams it finds the way to win. They 1204 00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:03,840 Speaker 1: know how to win. I'm not surprised by the Colts. 1205 00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:06,319 Speaker 1: I think your Cobe brissetted good player. I expected him 1206 00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:08,799 Speaker 1: to play well like he had. Unfortunately, we found out 1207 00:57:08,840 --> 00:57:12,600 Speaker 1: how good a player Jacoby Brissett actually is. We found 1208 00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:15,440 Speaker 1: it out in twenty seventeen, but it was just emphasized 1209 00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:18,720 Speaker 1: again in twenty nineteen. The Jags will have their opportunity 1210 00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:20,520 Speaker 1: to see that as well. They still have two meetings 1211 00:57:20,800 --> 00:57:25,200 Speaker 1: with the Colts over the last eight excuse me, last 1212 00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:28,440 Speaker 1: seven games of this season. They'll match up twice, just 1213 00:57:28,560 --> 00:57:30,840 Speaker 1: like the Texans will match up with the Titans twice 1214 00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:32,760 Speaker 1: over the last Actually it'll be for the Texas last 1215 00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:34,880 Speaker 1: four games of the year. So there you go, all right, 1216 00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:37,840 Speaker 1: great stuff from Frank. Coming up, it's our good friend 1217 00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:42,000 Speaker 1: Game Analyst nineteen eighty nine Heisman Trophy winner Andre Where 1218 00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:45,360 Speaker 1: joining us right here on Texans will Access but shop 1219 00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:48,280 Speaker 1: back into this Wednesday Nia of Texans All Access from 1220 00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:52,200 Speaker 1: the Monday Texans Radio studio with our good friend Andre Where, 1221 00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:55,880 Speaker 1: my broadcast partner and my friend before we talk about football. 1222 00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:58,800 Speaker 1: I know you've been overseas many times, so what is 1223 00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:01,040 Speaker 1: your advice for jet lag. What do you think of 1224 00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:04,640 Speaker 1: going to London the whole thing. Uh, plenty of water, 1225 00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:07,120 Speaker 1: that's uh, that's what you would start with. And just 1226 00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:10,680 Speaker 1: make sure you're hydrated because it's a long flight. Um 1227 00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:13,520 Speaker 1: that that seems to always help me with jet lag. 1228 00:58:13,560 --> 00:58:16,800 Speaker 1: And then when you get there, I've got a couple 1229 00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:19,920 Speaker 1: of favorite restaurants. So then it becomes what you want 1230 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:22,440 Speaker 1: to do when you have a flavor for what you've 1231 00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:24,800 Speaker 1: read about in terms of the city that you're visiting, 1232 00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:28,640 Speaker 1: in this case London and all that it has to offer. 1233 00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:32,000 Speaker 1: So just just kind of dive into the culture there 1234 00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:36,080 Speaker 1: and become part of the everyday where life. We're not 1235 00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:39,400 Speaker 1: there a whole lot or a long time, but it's uh, 1236 00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:41,400 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a lot of fun. Did you ever 1237 00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:47,640 Speaker 1: play a game overseas? Uh? Yeah, uh in Tokyo of 1238 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:50,600 Speaker 1: all places. I was in camp with the Minnesota Vikings 1239 00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:53,040 Speaker 1: at the time with them, and we played the Kansas 1240 00:58:53,080 --> 00:58:57,800 Speaker 1: City Chiefs in u in in Tokyo. I actually think 1241 00:58:57,840 --> 00:59:00,360 Speaker 1: I've played in London as well, in a pre season 1242 00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:04,040 Speaker 1: game or a game against the Cowboys when I was 1243 00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:07,320 Speaker 1: I know I did against the Cowboys over there. So 1244 00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:11,480 Speaker 1: this isn't in my first trip to London by any stretch, 1245 00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:15,040 Speaker 1: and I've actually played a game there. How tough was 1246 00:59:15,080 --> 00:59:17,640 Speaker 1: it to go to Tokyo as an athlete and take 1247 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:20,240 Speaker 1: the field and do all of that with that kind 1248 00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:24,760 Speaker 1: of travel situation to deal with jetlag wise and otherwise. Yeah, 1249 00:59:24,920 --> 00:59:27,040 Speaker 1: you go over and it's it's early enough. For The 1250 00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:29,320 Speaker 1: thing about preseason games is you leave you can leave 1251 00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:32,000 Speaker 1: super early. When you get into the regular season, it's 1252 00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:35,720 Speaker 1: a little bit different kind of deal because there is 1253 00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:38,160 Speaker 1: such a short turnaround. But in the preseason you can 1254 00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:42,640 Speaker 1: leave really early. There you can get adjusted a lot better. 1255 00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:45,520 Speaker 1: We got a chance to visit an aircraft carrier. It's 1256 00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:47,480 Speaker 1: one of those things that you do one time in 1257 00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:50,240 Speaker 1: your life and that's enough. Because of the way you 1258 00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:53,320 Speaker 1: have to land and take off on an aircraft carrier, 1259 00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:58,280 Speaker 1: it's a little bit different. But as far as a game, 1260 00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:00,440 Speaker 1: once once you get there and you start to prepare 1261 01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:04,000 Speaker 1: and prep and you share practices. We shared him with 1262 01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:06,680 Speaker 1: the Chiefs at that time. I got a chance. Joe 1263 01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:08,960 Speaker 1: Montana was with the Chiefs at that point in time, 1264 01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:12,280 Speaker 1: so you really I really just studied and watched him 1265 01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:16,200 Speaker 1: and how he went about his business. As a young 1266 01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:19,320 Speaker 1: when I was a young player, So it was very good, beneficial, 1267 01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:22,280 Speaker 1: very cool, And as far as the aircraft carrier goes, 1268 01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:24,400 Speaker 1: I don't like pulling g's on a roller coaster, so 1269 01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:26,480 Speaker 1: I'm not going to do that. And no, I mean 1270 01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:28,600 Speaker 1: it's it's one of those things where they tell you 1271 01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:31,520 Speaker 1: when you're taking off to lead that if you hear 1272 01:00:31,720 --> 01:00:35,120 Speaker 1: sound after ten seconds, you know you're in the air, 1273 01:00:35,240 --> 01:00:37,440 Speaker 1: and if you don't, then you know you're pretty much 1274 01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:40,280 Speaker 1: in trouble. So that that was all I had to 1275 01:00:40,400 --> 01:00:44,200 Speaker 1: hear one time, and one time doing it is has 1276 01:00:44,240 --> 01:00:47,160 Speaker 1: been enough. Ouch. Hey, I know you do a lot 1277 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:49,640 Speaker 1: of interviews out of town and everything, and everybody probably 1278 01:00:49,720 --> 01:00:52,320 Speaker 1: asks you about the Shawn Watson and I never get 1279 01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:55,880 Speaker 1: tired of talking about him. But I don't know, it's 1280 01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:58,960 Speaker 1: funny because I'm wondering what else I can say about 1281 01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:01,520 Speaker 1: the guy. He's amazed. What do you say about him 1282 01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:03,880 Speaker 1: when people ask you what kind of quarterback he is 1283 01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:07,439 Speaker 1: and what he's doing for this football team right now? Well, 1284 01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:10,960 Speaker 1: it's funny. I was talking to a big group last 1285 01:01:11,040 --> 01:01:13,640 Speaker 1: night at the Astros game and that you know a 1286 01:01:13,680 --> 01:01:16,960 Speaker 1: lot of people were asking about Deshaun and what I 1287 01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:19,760 Speaker 1: thought the very question that you're asking, and I said, 1288 01:01:19,840 --> 01:01:23,520 Speaker 1: you know, this is no surprise to me. And when 1289 01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:25,280 Speaker 1: they asked, well, why is that, I said, because I 1290 01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:28,080 Speaker 1: thought he should have been the first player drafted in 1291 01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:30,800 Speaker 1: that draft. I thought he was that good. I was 1292 01:01:30,920 --> 01:01:32,760 Speaker 1: that sure of it. And I think if you go 1293 01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:37,400 Speaker 1: back and and you reevaluate the whole draft and you 1294 01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:41,720 Speaker 1: shuffle the cards, maybe mahomes and a lot of eyes, 1295 01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:43,360 Speaker 1: but I know a lot of them would have changed 1296 01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:47,040 Speaker 1: their mind and their their thought process on where and 1297 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:51,160 Speaker 1: when Deshaun should have been drafted. It's no surprise to me. 1298 01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:55,360 Speaker 1: Is the message that I seem. He's a transcendent player 1299 01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:59,120 Speaker 1: that a lot of guys, a lot of teams would 1300 01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:02,720 Speaker 1: love to have. Each and every week there's an all 1301 01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:06,240 Speaker 1: moment in a game, like you know you took it 1302 01:02:06,320 --> 01:02:09,439 Speaker 1: away from him a week ago against the Colts, Well 1303 01:02:09,720 --> 01:02:12,800 Speaker 1: he came back and showed it again the very next 1304 01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:16,520 Speaker 1: week against the Raiders and so um and I'm talking 1305 01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:20,080 Speaker 1: about the play when they blew it dead and what 1306 01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:23,080 Speaker 1: should have been a touchdown pass in Indianapolis, Well, he 1307 01:02:23,240 --> 01:02:26,520 Speaker 1: made sure of it this week. And he's he's just 1308 01:02:27,160 --> 01:02:31,480 Speaker 1: literally what Dabo Sweeney described to everyone is that he's 1309 01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:34,880 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan on a football field, and that kind of 1310 01:02:35,240 --> 01:02:37,320 Speaker 1: that kind of plays out each and every week. We're 1311 01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:39,560 Speaker 1: lucky to have the seats that we're in, yeah, and 1312 01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:43,120 Speaker 1: lucky to have DeAndre Hopkins too, but no JJ Watt 1313 01:02:43,200 --> 01:02:45,120 Speaker 1: for the rest of the season. So, Andrea, what do 1314 01:02:45,160 --> 01:02:47,240 Speaker 1: they do? And I know you've been asked this as well, 1315 01:02:47,800 --> 01:02:49,720 Speaker 1: what do they do to try to combat the loss 1316 01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:53,520 Speaker 1: of j J Watt on that defensive front. I think 1317 01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:56,320 Speaker 1: it's a lot of players, a lot of different mixtures 1318 01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:58,880 Speaker 1: of things, and you got to be real careful in 1319 01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:02,200 Speaker 1: how you do it and about it because you can't 1320 01:03:02,280 --> 01:03:05,400 Speaker 1: get two blitz crazy because you've got some of the 1321 01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:08,920 Speaker 1: inexperience right now that's playing on the back end. But 1322 01:03:09,040 --> 01:03:10,880 Speaker 1: you have to pick and choose when you do it, 1323 01:03:11,760 --> 01:03:14,800 Speaker 1: mix and rotate a handful of players and many who's 1324 01:03:14,840 --> 01:03:17,400 Speaker 1: gonna be big. He's going to have to really grow 1325 01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:20,600 Speaker 1: up in a hurry and start to contribute in a 1326 01:03:20,680 --> 01:03:22,800 Speaker 1: major way. And I think he's got some talent there 1327 01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:26,000 Speaker 1: that can certainly get you by. There're gonna be other 1328 01:03:26,320 --> 01:03:28,640 Speaker 1: others that will have to step up in terms of 1329 01:03:28,720 --> 01:03:32,200 Speaker 1: rush defense that on Earth, especially on early downs. You're 1330 01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:34,840 Speaker 1: gonna have to stand in there and fight and scratch 1331 01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:37,200 Speaker 1: and not give up an inch here and there, and 1332 01:03:37,320 --> 01:03:39,440 Speaker 1: others will have to make plays because of that, and 1333 01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:41,640 Speaker 1: it's it's just going to be a totally different way 1334 01:03:42,040 --> 01:03:44,600 Speaker 1: in which you go about playing defense with a player 1335 01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:46,960 Speaker 1: like JJ out of the lineup. Well, we've been working 1336 01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:49,240 Speaker 1: together eighteen years, so I'm sure you've seen the same 1337 01:03:49,320 --> 01:03:52,080 Speaker 1: thing I have and are concerned about the same thing. 1338 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:54,320 Speaker 1: And that's Leonard Fournette, who's having a really good season. 1339 01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:56,600 Speaker 1: And you mentioned the early downs and needing to stop him. 1340 01:03:56,640 --> 01:03:58,520 Speaker 1: The Texans did a good job last time, but they're 1341 01:03:58,520 --> 01:04:00,320 Speaker 1: going to have to do that again and maybe more 1342 01:04:00,520 --> 01:04:03,720 Speaker 1: this time. Yeah, and he seems that. I'll tell you 1343 01:04:03,800 --> 01:04:07,080 Speaker 1: what's what's the difference in Leonard Fournette is that he's 1344 01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:10,720 Speaker 1: running behind a healthier offensive line. They've gotten some players 1345 01:04:11,320 --> 01:04:15,120 Speaker 1: back up front that have opened some holes for him. 1346 01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:17,600 Speaker 1: And when you're playing with backups, we know how tough 1347 01:04:17,720 --> 01:04:20,960 Speaker 1: that is to to especially get the running game going, 1348 01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:23,680 Speaker 1: when everybody's not in sync or you have one guy 1349 01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:25,760 Speaker 1: in one guy out. It's it's tough to go about 1350 01:04:25,840 --> 01:04:29,800 Speaker 1: your business that way, especially for a talented backlight Fournette, 1351 01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:33,120 Speaker 1: but he's back, the offensive line is a little bit healthier, 1352 01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:35,880 Speaker 1: and he's starting to reap the benefits. We know what 1353 01:04:36,000 --> 01:04:39,520 Speaker 1: type of talent he is. He looks as though, studying 1354 01:04:39,640 --> 01:04:42,040 Speaker 1: last week's film, he's having fun again. And when you're 1355 01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:44,400 Speaker 1: there are no holes there and you're constantly being stopped 1356 01:04:44,440 --> 01:04:46,600 Speaker 1: in the backfield at the line of scrimmage, it's no 1357 01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:50,160 Speaker 1: fun for not only a quarterback, but certainly a running back. 1358 01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:53,920 Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew seems like, you know, he's just continuing to 1359 01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:57,480 Speaker 1: build every single week on the last week's performance, where 1360 01:04:57,600 --> 01:05:00,760 Speaker 1: his confidence is at an all time, all time high 1361 01:05:00,880 --> 01:05:03,480 Speaker 1: right now. So those are two weapons. Are certainly a 1362 01:05:03,560 --> 01:05:06,200 Speaker 1: lot more that are around those two that will be 1363 01:05:06,320 --> 01:05:10,280 Speaker 1: a factor in Sunday's game. But they look like a 1364 01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:13,760 Speaker 1: very good, young offensive team that's starting to turn the 1365 01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:16,640 Speaker 1: corner and starting to compete at a high level. Minshew 1366 01:05:16,880 --> 01:05:19,000 Speaker 1: is kind of making it, I hate to say, look easy. 1367 01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:21,480 Speaker 1: It's not easy, and maybe he's not making it look 1368 01:05:21,560 --> 01:05:23,680 Speaker 1: that easy, but he's a rookie Andre and they're four 1369 01:05:23,720 --> 01:05:26,600 Speaker 1: and four, and I know the competition isn't super Bowl worthy, 1370 01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:29,040 Speaker 1: but you have to give him some credit here for 1371 01:05:29,160 --> 01:05:32,600 Speaker 1: coming in and doing a nice job. Yeah. I credit 1372 01:05:33,040 --> 01:05:35,760 Speaker 1: how he was coached in college and being able to 1373 01:05:35,880 --> 01:05:38,960 Speaker 1: read defenses and things of that. That goes a long 1374 01:05:39,040 --> 01:05:40,680 Speaker 1: way when you can come to the line of scrimmage 1375 01:05:40,720 --> 01:05:43,680 Speaker 1: and see different looks and know how to attack certain 1376 01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:47,400 Speaker 1: defenses based on where the weaknesses are. Mike Leach did 1377 01:05:47,400 --> 01:05:49,919 Speaker 1: an outstanding job with him, and I think that's he's 1378 01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:53,120 Speaker 1: part of a trend where that's the way in the 1379 01:05:53,240 --> 01:05:56,440 Speaker 1: direction that the NFL is going. It's going more towards 1380 01:05:56,520 --> 01:06:01,160 Speaker 1: the spread looks, the offenses, the air raid type offenses, 1381 01:06:01,200 --> 01:06:05,680 Speaker 1: where guys are are prepared for what the NFL has 1382 01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:08,400 Speaker 1: in store from a defensive standpoint, not a whole lot. 1383 01:06:08,480 --> 01:06:10,200 Speaker 1: You can show him that he hasn't seen to be 1384 01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:14,880 Speaker 1: quite honest, and and he has taken the coaching is 1385 01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:17,640 Speaker 1: he's often running with it, and he's getting he's improving 1386 01:06:17,720 --> 01:06:20,120 Speaker 1: each and every week, and you can actually see it 1387 01:06:20,800 --> 01:06:23,120 Speaker 1: when you turn on the tape and watch it. All Right, 1388 01:06:23,120 --> 01:06:25,480 Speaker 1: I'm looking at the cults here going to Pittsburgh, and 1389 01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:29,080 Speaker 1: we saw Pittsburgh. I hesitate to use the word struggle, 1390 01:06:29,160 --> 01:06:30,800 Speaker 1: but it was more of a struggle than we thought 1391 01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:33,240 Speaker 1: against the Miami Dolphins on Monday Night, So what are 1392 01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:37,040 Speaker 1: you thinking of the Steelers hosting the Cults this weekend. Well, 1393 01:06:37,120 --> 01:06:39,920 Speaker 1: I think I go back to that game on Monday 1394 01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:41,760 Speaker 1: night against the Dolphins. I think it may have been 1395 01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:44,840 Speaker 1: one of those where you underestimate an opponent and a 1396 01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:48,880 Speaker 1: young team. You know Mason Randolph or Rudolph there as 1397 01:06:48,920 --> 01:06:52,200 Speaker 1: a quarterback, and you just can't do that. There's a 1398 01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:54,800 Speaker 1: there are a lot of young components to the Steelers, 1399 01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:57,080 Speaker 1: and then you're reading about the Dolphins and how the 1400 01:06:57,200 --> 01:07:00,200 Speaker 1: tank in the season and how you know this and 1401 01:07:00,240 --> 01:07:02,000 Speaker 1: the other where it's going to be an easy games. 1402 01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:03,920 Speaker 1: Just we're at home. We'll roll the helmets out there 1403 01:07:03,920 --> 01:07:07,240 Speaker 1: and roll the balls out. We'll win and move on. Well, 1404 01:07:07,240 --> 01:07:09,520 Speaker 1: it's the NFL and you find yourself up, Oh, we're 1405 01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:12,280 Speaker 1: down fourteen nothing, we better start playing. I think it 1406 01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:15,600 Speaker 1: was more more of that than it was a lapse 1407 01:07:15,680 --> 01:07:20,160 Speaker 1: of talent. With the Steelers going to or playing against 1408 01:07:20,200 --> 01:07:22,840 Speaker 1: Indie this week, this will be a tough game. It's 1409 01:07:22,920 --> 01:07:25,760 Speaker 1: one that on paper, the Colts should be able to 1410 01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:28,560 Speaker 1: take care of the Steelers, but it's the NFL and 1411 01:07:28,720 --> 01:07:31,840 Speaker 1: you never know. Any given Sunday it can happen. We 1412 01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:34,560 Speaker 1: saw that Miami came out fighting and then all of 1413 01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:38,360 Speaker 1: a sudden, the Steelers reacted. This could this is one 1414 01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:40,240 Speaker 1: of those where it's the coach should win it, but 1415 01:07:40,280 --> 01:07:42,000 Speaker 1: it could be a toss up game. Yeah. And then 1416 01:07:42,040 --> 01:07:45,560 Speaker 1: you have the Titans in Carolina in North Carolina, so 1417 01:07:45,760 --> 01:07:48,320 Speaker 1: that's going to be interesting as well. Carolina coming out 1418 01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:52,320 Speaker 1: that bad loss seems to be coming down, you know, 1419 01:07:52,480 --> 01:07:54,760 Speaker 1: back down to Earth. There was a lot of Kyle Allen. 1420 01:07:54,840 --> 01:07:58,840 Speaker 1: He suffered his first loss this past weekend. I know 1421 01:07:58,920 --> 01:08:02,880 Speaker 1: they've got some injuries in Carolina, but Tennessee is a 1422 01:08:02,960 --> 01:08:05,520 Speaker 1: team that is starting to roll a little bit. They're 1423 01:08:05,560 --> 01:08:07,840 Speaker 1: going on the road Tanny Hills, starting to play some 1424 01:08:07,960 --> 01:08:12,400 Speaker 1: consistent football. And that's always been the scary thing about Tennessee, 1425 01:08:12,520 --> 01:08:15,760 Speaker 1: as if they can get consistent quarterback play each and 1426 01:08:15,880 --> 01:08:18,679 Speaker 1: every weekend a week out with a dominant running game, 1427 01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:22,639 Speaker 1: and I think that's exactly what coach Brabo wanted. That's 1428 01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:24,560 Speaker 1: exactly what he's starting to get and he's starting to 1429 01:08:24,600 --> 01:08:27,120 Speaker 1: reap the benefits of it. All Right, Well, I'll see 1430 01:08:27,160 --> 01:08:29,360 Speaker 1: on the plane and I'll be the one jealous of 1431 01:08:29,520 --> 01:08:32,320 Speaker 1: looking at you sleeping like a baby while I'm wired 1432 01:08:32,360 --> 01:08:36,120 Speaker 1: and can't sleep because I have difficulty sleeping with air travel. Yeah, 1433 01:08:36,240 --> 01:08:38,960 Speaker 1: you gotta get hydrated, man, maybe something to help your 1434 01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:41,680 Speaker 1: nose off a little bit. And you can get on 1435 01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:45,320 Speaker 1: London's time as quickly as you possibly can, because when 1436 01:08:45,360 --> 01:08:48,240 Speaker 1: we get there it'll be Friday, and I would imagine 1437 01:08:48,280 --> 01:08:50,439 Speaker 1: relatively early, so you got the whole day. You can't 1438 01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:54,320 Speaker 1: just go to bed, so up on the plane. I'll 1439 01:08:54,360 --> 01:08:56,439 Speaker 1: do my best, all right, my friend, We'll see you there, 1440 01:08:56,520 --> 01:08:58,280 Speaker 1: all right, buddy. I think I'm just gonna get up 1441 01:08:58,280 --> 01:09:00,360 Speaker 1: at like three to thirty in the morning, thirty four 1442 01:09:00,400 --> 01:09:02,479 Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning, so I'm just so exhaust. I 1443 01:09:02,600 --> 01:09:04,479 Speaker 1: have to sleep on a plane. But man, I don't know. 1444 01:09:05,040 --> 01:09:06,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's either that aren't pulling it all night, 1445 01:09:06,920 --> 01:09:08,599 Speaker 1: or in London, I'm just staying up all the way 1446 01:09:08,640 --> 01:09:10,080 Speaker 1: through and then all the way through the next day. 1447 01:09:10,240 --> 01:09:13,040 Speaker 1: It's probably not the best I could do. I would assume. 1448 01:09:13,200 --> 01:09:14,880 Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I wish I could sleep on 1449 01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:17,800 Speaker 1: a plane. Drake can half the time on a plane 1450 01:09:17,840 --> 01:09:20,320 Speaker 1: fly at home. He's kicking my chair falling asleep, so 1451 01:09:20,840 --> 01:09:24,040 Speaker 1: I know exactly all about him getting z's on a plane. 1452 01:09:24,080 --> 01:09:27,240 Speaker 1: There's no doubt about that. Now coming up next, we're 1453 01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:29,559 Speaker 1: gonna go behind them sidelines with Deep City. This week, 1454 01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:32,120 Speaker 1: Deep caught up with JP Shattered to talk a little 1455 01:09:32,120 --> 01:09:36,439 Speaker 1: bit of London minshoe Mania kind of like Beatlemania, Wimbley 1456 01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:39,840 Speaker 1: Stadium and what we're gonna see Sunday from the Jacksonville Jaguars. 1457 01:09:40,200 --> 01:09:42,880 Speaker 1: Keep me locked right here, I'll Texans Access.

Kevin Walter is scheduled to appear, 1467 01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:13,439 Speaker 1: amongst others.

We will do it on 1471 01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:23,880 Speaker 1: Friday from London, and that is if you're headed over there. 1472 01:10:24,439 --> 01:10:26,960 Speaker 1: Or you're already over there and listening a barrow Boy 1473 01:10:27,040 --> 01:10:31,479 Speaker 1: and Banker pub. That's Texans home base. That's where you 1474 01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:35,720 Speaker 1: kind of want to be. It's like where everything is stationed. 1475 01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:38,240 Speaker 1: You go there, and then you know, that's like the 1476 01:10:38,760 --> 01:10:41,040 Speaker 1: middle on trivial pursuit. You know, I had the outer ring, 1477 01:10:41,200 --> 01:10:43,120 Speaker 1: but had to go to the inner ring. Well, barrow 1478 01:10:43,200 --> 01:10:45,280 Speaker 1: Boy and Banker apparently is the inner ring. You go 1479 01:10:45,360 --> 01:10:48,320 Speaker 1: there for anything. Apparently food is pretty good there too. 1480 01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:49,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. I gotta find out. I do want 1481 01:10:49,960 --> 01:10:52,160 Speaker 1: some fish and chips. I do want that. I do 1482 01:10:52,280 --> 01:10:54,280 Speaker 1: not want to hag us, but I do want the 1483 01:10:54,320 --> 01:10:56,120 Speaker 1: fish and chips for sure. I might eat that every meal. 1484 01:10:56,200 --> 01:10:57,479 Speaker 1: I don't know. I have no idea what I'm gonat 1485 01:10:57,479 --> 01:10:59,200 Speaker 1: when I'm gonna over there, I'm kind of excited about it. 1486 01:10:59,200 --> 01:11:00,720 Speaker 1: I'll be honest with you. I know a guy that's 1487 01:11:00,760 --> 01:11:03,360 Speaker 1: been over there a few times with the Jacksonville Jaguars, 1488 01:11:03,400 --> 01:11:07,120 Speaker 1: and that's our good friend JP Shattuck, who covers Jacksonville 1489 01:11:07,200 --> 01:11:11,000 Speaker 1: four Jaguars dot com and whatever. It's time to go 1490 01:11:11,120 --> 01:11:14,080 Speaker 1: behind enemy sidelines in Jacksonville deep S calls up our 1491 01:11:14,120 --> 01:11:17,040 Speaker 1: good friend JP sha JP just ahead of our London game. 1492 01:11:17,120 --> 01:11:19,080 Speaker 1: How's it going, Oh, it's great. I feel like I 1493 01:11:19,200 --> 01:11:23,160 Speaker 1: never talked to you before Texans game DP. We never talk. 1494 01:11:23,640 --> 01:11:26,200 Speaker 1: We never talk. And the fact that we're playing each 1495 01:11:26,240 --> 01:11:29,600 Speaker 1: other twice before the bye week and then that's it. 1496 01:11:29,680 --> 01:11:31,640 Speaker 1: It's gonna it's gonna feel weird the second half of 1497 01:11:31,640 --> 01:11:33,599 Speaker 1: the season. Not that I'm complaining, but these two teams 1498 01:11:33,640 --> 01:11:35,720 Speaker 1: won't have to face each other after the bye week 1499 01:11:35,800 --> 01:11:39,320 Speaker 1: unless it's in the playoffs. Yeah, well, let's let's hope. Well, 1500 01:11:39,439 --> 01:11:40,920 Speaker 1: I don't know if I can hope it for Houston, 1501 01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:43,000 Speaker 1: but hope for the Jaguars that they're in the playoffs. 1502 01:11:43,080 --> 01:11:44,800 Speaker 1: That means the jagson made a nice run here in 1503 01:11:44,840 --> 01:11:46,880 Speaker 1: the middle of the season with three straight division games 1504 01:11:47,520 --> 01:11:49,720 Speaker 1: this week of course in London, and then a bye 1505 01:11:49,760 --> 01:11:54,200 Speaker 1: week and then games against the Colts and the Titans 1506 01:11:54,280 --> 01:11:56,320 Speaker 1: back to back after that. So I think we'll know 1507 01:11:56,439 --> 01:11:58,720 Speaker 1: pretty quick in Jacksonville at least if this team is 1508 01:11:58,760 --> 01:12:01,800 Speaker 1: playoff worthy or not. Let's talk about this Sunday's game. 1509 01:12:01,880 --> 01:12:04,280 Speaker 1: It's the seventh year for the Jaguars traveling to London 1510 01:12:04,360 --> 01:12:08,400 Speaker 1: for a home game. The Jaguars have done a phenomenal 1511 01:12:08,520 --> 01:12:11,080 Speaker 1: job over the years just honing in on the travel 1512 01:12:11,200 --> 01:12:14,000 Speaker 1: plans and their schedule. What does the schedule look like 1513 01:12:14,160 --> 01:12:16,519 Speaker 1: this year in this week for the Jags. Well, the 1514 01:12:16,640 --> 01:12:19,679 Speaker 1: last few years it's been pretty much the same travel 1515 01:12:19,880 --> 01:12:24,080 Speaker 1: Thursday afternoon evening around six or seven o'clock. The plane 1516 01:12:24,160 --> 01:12:28,240 Speaker 1: leaves charter from Jacksonville and straight into Heathrow and then 1517 01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:31,840 Speaker 1: we usually arrive at Heathrow six six fifteen in the 1518 01:12:31,920 --> 01:12:35,000 Speaker 1: morning London time, check into the hotel and it's been 1519 01:12:35,040 --> 01:12:38,000 Speaker 1: the same hotel right near Wimbley Stadium the last number 1520 01:12:38,040 --> 01:12:40,360 Speaker 1: of years. Actually, I think almost all every year the 1521 01:12:40,840 --> 01:12:43,080 Speaker 1: days prior to the game have been right there at Wimbley, 1522 01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:46,400 Speaker 1: Check into the hotel, and then there's a walkthrough at 1523 01:12:46,479 --> 01:12:49,600 Speaker 1: Allian's Park, the home of Saracens Rugby club. That's on 1524 01:12:49,760 --> 01:12:52,759 Speaker 1: Friday around noon, just to get the guy's legs moving 1525 01:12:52,840 --> 01:12:56,040 Speaker 1: again and get them doing something that they do the 1526 01:12:56,160 --> 01:13:00,160 Speaker 1: media responsibilities there at the practice that day. All the 1527 01:13:00,280 --> 01:13:04,000 Speaker 1: UK folks are in for that. And then Saturday, usually 1528 01:13:04,040 --> 01:13:07,840 Speaker 1: Friday night, there's a couple of events with the ownership group, 1529 01:13:07,920 --> 01:13:10,639 Speaker 1: do a few things in town with some sponsors and stuff. 1530 01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:14,000 Speaker 1: Saturday there's a team walk through and then a couple 1531 01:13:14,040 --> 01:13:17,320 Speaker 1: of events for fans midday and in the evening a 1532 01:13:17,479 --> 01:13:21,160 Speaker 1: pub party for Jaguar fans. Fulham Football Club plays on 1533 01:13:21,320 --> 01:13:25,080 Speaker 1: Saturday as well. That's Shad Khan's soccer team in London 1534 01:13:25,600 --> 01:13:28,200 Speaker 1: in the Championship League. They're playing at like three o'clock 1535 01:13:28,640 --> 01:13:31,040 Speaker 1: and then Sunday it's game day and here you go. 1536 01:13:31,120 --> 01:13:33,600 Speaker 1: It's a two thirty kickoff London time. And then we 1537 01:13:33,720 --> 01:13:35,320 Speaker 1: hop on the plane right after the game and come 1538 01:13:35,320 --> 01:13:37,479 Speaker 1: on back home. We're back in Jacksonville by about one 1539 01:13:37,800 --> 01:13:40,600 Speaker 1: one thirty in the morning, so two nights on the 1540 01:13:40,680 --> 01:13:43,280 Speaker 1: ground in London. That's been at least a winning formula 1541 01:13:43,400 --> 01:13:47,400 Speaker 1: for this team over time the last few years or so. Now, 1542 01:13:47,439 --> 01:13:49,120 Speaker 1: the first couple of years they went all week long 1543 01:13:49,560 --> 01:13:52,160 Speaker 1: and that was the team wasn't great anyway, but there 1544 01:13:52,240 --> 01:13:54,320 Speaker 1: was a lot of distractions, a lot of things going on. 1545 01:13:54,560 --> 01:13:57,000 Speaker 1: It just didn't end well on the field on Sunday. 1546 01:13:57,080 --> 01:14:00,160 Speaker 1: So the shortened trip and it's the same routine every 1547 01:14:00,280 --> 01:14:02,559 Speaker 1: single year, and I think that's the home field advantage. 1548 01:14:02,600 --> 01:14:04,120 Speaker 1: And not to mention that there are a bunch of 1549 01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:08,200 Speaker 1: Jaguar fans too, but to have that routine is key. Yeah, 1550 01:14:08,200 --> 01:14:09,800 Speaker 1: it built up quite a bit of a following there. 1551 01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:12,200 Speaker 1: What's the longest amount of time that the Jaguars have 1552 01:14:12,280 --> 01:14:15,280 Speaker 1: stayed in London? Am I remembering correctly? That one year 1553 01:14:15,320 --> 01:14:17,600 Speaker 1: they even spent an extra night after the game and 1554 01:14:17,680 --> 01:14:20,920 Speaker 1: then came back. That's correct. So that was the first 1555 01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:24,479 Speaker 1: year and that or was it the first year? Gosh, 1556 01:14:24,520 --> 01:14:26,800 Speaker 1: they're all running together now. So the first year they 1557 01:14:26,840 --> 01:14:29,400 Speaker 1: played the forty nine ers. I remember the game itself 1558 01:14:30,760 --> 01:14:33,200 Speaker 1: was a blowout and the forty nine ers ran up 1559 01:14:33,200 --> 01:14:35,960 Speaker 1: and down the field. Colin Kaepernick was running like a 1560 01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:38,639 Speaker 1: deer all day and scored two touchdowns on the ground 1561 01:14:38,680 --> 01:14:41,160 Speaker 1: and it was twenty eight zip in four drives. But 1562 01:14:41,320 --> 01:14:45,559 Speaker 1: that was the year that they The Jags left on Monday, 1563 01:14:45,720 --> 01:14:49,240 Speaker 1: got there Tuesday morning, stayed in the countryside out west 1564 01:14:49,280 --> 01:14:52,840 Speaker 1: of town, and then came into town. Stayed down on 1565 01:14:53,120 --> 01:14:56,880 Speaker 1: Park Lane downtown the nights before the game and around 1566 01:14:56,960 --> 01:15:00,080 Speaker 1: the game. The next year, the Jags were on the 1567 01:15:00,200 --> 01:15:03,360 Speaker 1: road the week before they were in Cincinnati, so came 1568 01:15:03,400 --> 01:15:08,559 Speaker 1: straight from Cincinnati Sunday night, flew over, got there Monday morning, 1569 01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:11,280 Speaker 1: and then stayed up at another resort north of town 1570 01:15:11,760 --> 01:15:13,760 Speaker 1: all week long with the practice field. Did all that 1571 01:15:13,880 --> 01:15:16,759 Speaker 1: and then moved to the Hilton right near Wembley Stadium 1572 01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:20,760 Speaker 1: the nights Friday night before the game. So after that, 1573 01:15:21,240 --> 01:15:24,160 Speaker 1: they've decided they were two blowout losses. They decided to 1574 01:15:24,200 --> 01:15:26,320 Speaker 1: shorten it up and change it up. Here. You guys 1575 01:15:26,320 --> 01:15:29,120 Speaker 1: are London pros over there in Jacksonville. Let's talk about 1576 01:15:29,120 --> 01:15:31,800 Speaker 1: the Texans and the Jags Week two. These two teams 1577 01:15:31,840 --> 01:15:33,719 Speaker 1: face each other. Now they're gonna face each other again. 1578 01:15:33,920 --> 01:15:37,559 Speaker 1: Lots changed since that Week two matchup. So let's start 1579 01:15:37,600 --> 01:15:39,559 Speaker 1: with Jalen Ramsey because I feel like things are going 1580 01:15:39,640 --> 01:15:42,439 Speaker 1: well for the Jags and Jalen right before that game 1581 01:15:42,479 --> 01:15:44,840 Speaker 1: and then things just took a turn for the worst 1582 01:15:44,920 --> 01:15:47,840 Speaker 1: after that. He's already played some games out there in LA. 1583 01:15:47,960 --> 01:15:50,920 Speaker 1: What was the catalyst for that move happening when it did? 1584 01:15:51,040 --> 01:15:53,519 Speaker 1: And tell me a little bit about the Jaguars defense, 1585 01:15:53,600 --> 01:15:55,280 Speaker 1: how they've sort of made up for the loss of 1586 01:15:55,439 --> 01:15:58,000 Speaker 1: one of their top corners. Of course, all that started 1587 01:15:58,080 --> 01:16:00,960 Speaker 1: in Houston Week two and on the putting drive when 1588 01:16:01,520 --> 01:16:05,120 Speaker 1: there was an little out route by DeAndre Hopkins that 1589 01:16:05,439 --> 01:16:08,840 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey thought that he dropped and he was yelling 1590 01:16:08,840 --> 01:16:11,400 Speaker 1: at the sideline and Dug Maron to challenge the play. 1591 01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:14,280 Speaker 1: And they go through their process from upstairs to see it, 1592 01:16:14,400 --> 01:16:17,080 Speaker 1: and they didn't challenge it. So the rest of the drive, 1593 01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:20,200 Speaker 1: Jalen is yelling at the sideline. He's late to his 1594 01:16:20,240 --> 01:16:23,160 Speaker 1: assignment to get out there. He's angry that Maron didn't 1595 01:16:23,240 --> 01:16:25,960 Speaker 1: challenge the call, and of course, later in the drive 1596 01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:29,320 Speaker 1: gives up another third down reception for a first down 1597 01:16:29,400 --> 01:16:31,840 Speaker 1: to keep the drive alive. I think the Jags held 1598 01:16:31,880 --> 01:16:34,280 Speaker 1: him the field goal if I remember right on that drive. Well, 1599 01:16:34,320 --> 01:16:36,920 Speaker 1: he comes off the field and goes right by coach 1600 01:16:37,200 --> 01:16:40,519 Speaker 1: Maron and swats him on the arm as he walks by. 1601 01:16:41,160 --> 01:16:44,360 Speaker 1: Ramsey touches Maron. Well, he puts his hands on the head. Coach, 1602 01:16:44,560 --> 01:16:47,120 Speaker 1: what are you doing? Right? So a little later in 1603 01:16:47,160 --> 01:16:50,880 Speaker 1: the in the disagreement there, Maron goes over and trying 1604 01:16:50,920 --> 01:16:53,280 Speaker 1: to sort him back out. Hey, let's get ready focused 1605 01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:55,519 Speaker 1: and ready to go. Oh there, some players on the 1606 01:16:56,040 --> 01:16:58,439 Speaker 1: bench stand up. It's a whole thing in the sideline, right, 1607 01:16:58,880 --> 01:17:02,160 Speaker 1: But okay, either way, the defense settles in. They played 1608 01:17:02,160 --> 01:17:03,960 Speaker 1: a pretty good football game. And he plays a great 1609 01:17:04,000 --> 01:17:06,200 Speaker 1: game against DeAndre Hopkins that day, right, I mean, he 1610 01:17:06,240 --> 01:17:08,240 Speaker 1: shuts him down for most of the day. One of 1611 01:17:08,280 --> 01:17:11,519 Speaker 1: the great performances he's had against Hopkins, and then after 1612 01:17:11,600 --> 01:17:14,920 Speaker 1: the game, apparently there's a conversation around the locker room, 1613 01:17:14,960 --> 01:17:17,960 Speaker 1: in the locker room somewhere between Ramsey and some of 1614 01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:22,000 Speaker 1: the executives, and then after that meeting, there's an official 1615 01:17:22,320 --> 01:17:26,400 Speaker 1: ask for a trade from Ramsey's representatives to the Jaguars. 1616 01:17:26,439 --> 01:17:28,320 Speaker 1: So that was right after that game is when the 1617 01:17:28,400 --> 01:17:31,240 Speaker 1: official word came in that they wanted to trade. And 1618 01:17:31,360 --> 01:17:34,439 Speaker 1: of course a few weeks go by, he has you know, 1619 01:17:34,600 --> 01:17:38,280 Speaker 1: he's got the flu, the baby's coming in Nashville, he's 1620 01:17:38,320 --> 01:17:40,160 Speaker 1: got to go, and then the back injury for a 1621 01:17:40,240 --> 01:17:43,280 Speaker 1: couple of weeks, and then they finally found a trade 1622 01:17:43,360 --> 01:17:46,280 Speaker 1: partner in LA that gave them two first round picks 1623 01:17:46,320 --> 01:17:49,280 Speaker 1: and a fourth and they got him out of here. 1624 01:17:49,400 --> 01:17:52,960 Speaker 1: And I think over time, you know, they never set 1625 01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:55,479 Speaker 1: it publicly in the locker room, but you could tell 1626 01:17:55,560 --> 01:17:59,120 Speaker 1: by that second or third week of him not being available, 1627 01:17:59,320 --> 01:18:02,760 Speaker 1: you know, trying to practice limited and then not being 1628 01:18:02,800 --> 01:18:04,920 Speaker 1: able to go on game day. You know, I think 1629 01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:06,920 Speaker 1: that kind of worth than in the locker room here, 1630 01:18:07,160 --> 01:18:09,000 Speaker 1: though they say it publicly, you can just kind of 1631 01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:11,360 Speaker 1: get that feeling and hearing some guys after the fact 1632 01:18:11,520 --> 01:18:14,519 Speaker 1: now of course say that. So I think it's probably 1633 01:18:14,560 --> 01:18:17,200 Speaker 1: brought him together a little bit because they were playing 1634 01:18:17,280 --> 01:18:20,080 Speaker 1: okay at times without him. Yeah, he's a great corner, 1635 01:18:20,320 --> 01:18:22,519 Speaker 1: but there's a lot that comes with that, and in 1636 01:18:22,640 --> 01:18:24,799 Speaker 1: that locker room, they feel like they can play defense 1637 01:18:24,880 --> 01:18:27,360 Speaker 1: without him. So this will be the challenge this week 1638 01:18:27,479 --> 01:18:30,800 Speaker 1: because guess what. Houston, as you know, has fantastic wide 1639 01:18:30,800 --> 01:18:33,439 Speaker 1: receivers and a great quarterback. Yeah, let's talk about the 1640 01:18:33,479 --> 01:18:35,599 Speaker 1: other side of the ball with Gardner Minshew. Now he's 1641 01:18:35,640 --> 01:18:39,600 Speaker 1: got thirteen touchdowns, two interceptions, and he's broken I don't know, 1642 01:18:39,720 --> 01:18:42,240 Speaker 1: like a million more rookie records since the Texans faced 1643 01:18:42,320 --> 01:18:44,320 Speaker 1: him in a Week two. How have you seen him 1644 01:18:44,360 --> 01:18:47,240 Speaker 1: progress over the last seven games? What's changed at about 1645 01:18:47,280 --> 01:18:49,360 Speaker 1: Minshew now that he's got some more experience in hers built. 1646 01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:53,080 Speaker 1: It's funny, there's not a lot. I mean, he's seen 1647 01:18:53,160 --> 01:18:55,600 Speaker 1: probably a few more different looks on defense. There's going 1648 01:18:55,640 --> 01:18:58,160 Speaker 1: to be something that surprises him here and there, right, 1649 01:18:58,320 --> 01:19:02,439 Speaker 1: and a different look or a different blitz concept or whatever. 1650 01:19:02,600 --> 01:19:05,479 Speaker 1: But he's still the same guy who was in Houston 1651 01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:07,479 Speaker 1: week two and in week one when he came in 1652 01:19:07,560 --> 01:19:10,240 Speaker 1: against Kansas City. Well, now you just have a little 1653 01:19:10,320 --> 01:19:14,519 Speaker 1: more belief that something good's going to happen. Then you 1654 01:19:14,600 --> 01:19:16,760 Speaker 1: had no idea. Who knows what's going to happen with 1655 01:19:16,840 --> 01:19:18,479 Speaker 1: this kid, right, And then he drives down the field 1656 01:19:18,520 --> 01:19:20,920 Speaker 1: and scores a touchdown in Houston, And if it wasn't 1657 01:19:20,960 --> 01:19:22,400 Speaker 1: for the two point try, then you know, you go 1658 01:19:22,439 --> 01:19:25,479 Speaker 1: to overtime. Who knows. But they lost that football game, 1659 01:19:25,560 --> 01:19:28,639 Speaker 1: but you saw a little spark and then it happened again. 1660 01:19:29,000 --> 01:19:31,080 Speaker 1: And then they go to Denver and win, and he 1661 01:19:31,200 --> 01:19:33,679 Speaker 1: rallies them back from a late score that the defense 1662 01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:35,240 Speaker 1: gave up and they went on the road in Denver, 1663 01:19:35,400 --> 01:19:38,679 Speaker 1: tough place to play. So he's doing things. He's he's 1664 01:19:40,040 --> 01:19:43,720 Speaker 1: got great awareness of the scheme and where guys are 1665 01:19:43,760 --> 01:19:48,000 Speaker 1: going to be. He when he is pressured, he can 1666 01:19:48,400 --> 01:19:50,320 Speaker 1: keep his head up and look down field. He's great 1667 01:19:50,360 --> 01:19:53,280 Speaker 1: in his progressions. I think that that keeping the head 1668 01:19:53,360 --> 01:19:56,840 Speaker 1: up thing is really important because especially for a rookie quarterback. 1669 01:19:56,880 --> 01:19:59,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you're used to a guy ducking and cover 1670 01:20:00,040 --> 01:20:03,479 Speaker 1: right for when there's pressure, any flash of the other 1671 01:20:03,600 --> 01:20:05,439 Speaker 1: colored jersey, he's going to go down, right, Well, this 1672 01:20:05,600 --> 01:20:08,200 Speaker 1: guy gets out of the way, keeps it alive, somehow, 1673 01:20:08,600 --> 01:20:11,360 Speaker 1: keeps his eyes down field, and receivers get open and 1674 01:20:11,479 --> 01:20:13,120 Speaker 1: make place for him too. So you have all that 1675 01:20:13,240 --> 01:20:17,599 Speaker 1: combination together. It is exciting to watch. I'm curious how 1676 01:20:17,720 --> 01:20:20,360 Speaker 1: much longer we'll get to watch it. And that's the 1677 01:20:20,439 --> 01:20:22,680 Speaker 1: big debate. Deep you down here right now? Hi? You 1678 01:20:22,760 --> 01:20:26,920 Speaker 1: were you're leading into my next question JP Nick Foles. Yeah, no, no, 1679 01:20:27,200 --> 01:20:29,560 Speaker 1: you're reading my mind. He's it's about that time for 1680 01:20:29,720 --> 01:20:31,439 Speaker 1: Nick Foles. So it's it's going to be a pretty 1681 01:20:31,479 --> 01:20:33,400 Speaker 1: big decision for the Jags. Where do you see it going. 1682 01:20:33,840 --> 01:20:37,400 Speaker 1: He's eligible week eleven? Okay, so I think officially will 1683 01:20:37,400 --> 01:20:39,599 Speaker 1: be eligible week ten, but the Jags have a bye 1684 01:20:39,720 --> 01:20:42,920 Speaker 1: that week, so week eleven against the colt So if 1685 01:20:43,080 --> 01:20:46,160 Speaker 1: Minshew comes out and throws for three fifty and three 1686 01:20:46,240 --> 01:20:48,880 Speaker 1: touchdowns in Wimbley on Sunday against the Texans, it gets 1687 01:20:48,920 --> 01:20:51,080 Speaker 1: a win against the division rival, and the Jags are 1688 01:20:51,120 --> 01:20:54,040 Speaker 1: five and four and he's five and three as a starter, 1689 01:20:55,040 --> 01:20:58,400 Speaker 1: can you pull him out? Well, this offense was built 1690 01:20:58,479 --> 01:21:02,759 Speaker 1: for Nick Foles, right, I mean, so, do you ride 1691 01:21:02,800 --> 01:21:05,360 Speaker 1: the wave and try to get through the middle part 1692 01:21:05,400 --> 01:21:08,639 Speaker 1: of this season with a hot quarterback and a defense 1693 01:21:08,680 --> 01:21:11,280 Speaker 1: that's starting to come into its own or do you 1694 01:21:11,439 --> 01:21:13,960 Speaker 1: shake it up and put folds in there and hope 1695 01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:17,000 Speaker 1: he's at his peak performance, you know, in a time 1696 01:21:17,040 --> 01:21:19,280 Speaker 1: where he has to be right, because if they don't 1697 01:21:19,320 --> 01:21:21,120 Speaker 1: get through the middle part of the schedule, the next 1698 01:21:21,200 --> 01:21:24,880 Speaker 1: month December won't matter because you're gonna lose three division games, 1699 01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:27,240 Speaker 1: then you're not gonna be you know, the five games 1700 01:21:27,280 --> 01:21:30,080 Speaker 1: in December, three at home, or you're you're playing uphill 1701 01:21:30,240 --> 01:21:32,920 Speaker 1: the rest of the way. So it's really about what 1702 01:21:33,200 --> 01:21:35,920 Speaker 1: gives them the best chance to win the next month's 1703 01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:38,760 Speaker 1: worth of worth of games, and then they'll figure it out. 1704 01:21:38,800 --> 01:21:41,120 Speaker 1: If they try him and he at some point does 1705 01:21:41,240 --> 01:21:43,400 Speaker 1: fail and doesn't look as sharp, then you make the 1706 01:21:43,479 --> 01:21:45,439 Speaker 1: move because I think if you if you make the 1707 01:21:45,560 --> 01:21:48,320 Speaker 1: move and unmake the move, then you're flopping quarterbacks and 1708 01:21:48,439 --> 01:21:51,000 Speaker 1: you have two quarterbacks you don't have one. That's a 1709 01:21:51,080 --> 01:21:54,360 Speaker 1: whole issue. For me. I'm kind of split. I'll be 1710 01:21:54,400 --> 01:21:57,160 Speaker 1: honest with you. It's really tough. And the analysts here 1711 01:21:57,240 --> 01:21:59,280 Speaker 1: that we have on our shows that it's you just 1712 01:21:59,439 --> 01:22:01,679 Speaker 1: don't have a feel for it yet. And Doug Morone 1713 01:22:01,720 --> 01:22:04,439 Speaker 1: says publicly he hasn't thought about it. I think that delay. 1714 01:22:04,560 --> 01:22:06,240 Speaker 1: I think he has a gut feeling what he wants 1715 01:22:06,280 --> 01:22:10,400 Speaker 1: to do, but hey, it's the hot hand. And then 1716 01:22:10,479 --> 01:22:12,840 Speaker 1: you got a guy who's come off the bench in 1717 01:22:13,240 --> 01:22:16,479 Speaker 1: key situations late in seasons before lead a team to 1718 01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:20,120 Speaker 1: the promised Land. So who knows, the next two weeks 1719 01:22:20,160 --> 01:22:22,040 Speaker 1: will be just fascinating to see what they come up 1720 01:22:22,080 --> 01:22:24,519 Speaker 1: with that. It's funny that Nick Foles always finds himself 1721 01:22:24,520 --> 01:22:26,439 Speaker 1: in that situation where even if he's meant to be 1722 01:22:26,520 --> 01:22:28,519 Speaker 1: the starter, he's going to come off the bench in 1723 01:22:28,600 --> 01:22:30,920 Speaker 1: December or a time like maybe maybe he will, maybe 1724 01:22:30,960 --> 01:22:33,640 Speaker 1: he won't for Jacksonville and make things happen. I know 1725 01:22:33,720 --> 01:22:36,040 Speaker 1: the Texans saw him last year against Philly, and boy 1726 01:22:36,080 --> 01:22:37,600 Speaker 1: does he look good late in the season. I got 1727 01:22:37,720 --> 01:22:39,760 Speaker 1: to say, all right, let's talk about before I let 1728 01:22:39,800 --> 01:22:42,080 Speaker 1: you go, Leonard Fournette. We saw what he's done over 1729 01:22:42,080 --> 01:22:44,920 Speaker 1: the last few years. But man, he's really having a season. 1730 01:22:45,200 --> 01:22:48,280 Speaker 1: Leads the AFC, ranked second in the NFL with seven 1731 01:22:48,400 --> 01:22:51,000 Speaker 1: hundred ninety one rushing yards on the season. What are 1732 01:22:51,080 --> 01:22:53,200 Speaker 1: your thoughts on the season that he's having so far. 1733 01:22:53,320 --> 01:22:54,760 Speaker 1: Do you think he sustains it for the rest of 1734 01:22:54,800 --> 01:22:57,519 Speaker 1: the year. He's well on his way. You know. The 1735 01:22:57,680 --> 01:22:59,640 Speaker 1: one thing he just hasn't scored much. He's had one 1736 01:22:59,680 --> 01:23:02,840 Speaker 1: touch all year, so that's bothered him. You can tell 1737 01:23:03,560 --> 01:23:06,360 Speaker 1: he's just a different cat altogether. And I'm not just 1738 01:23:06,439 --> 01:23:08,799 Speaker 1: talking about on the field. That's obvious with the numbers 1739 01:23:08,880 --> 01:23:11,600 Speaker 1: and he's leading the league and attempts as well. I 1740 01:23:11,640 --> 01:23:13,960 Speaker 1: mean they're running him a lot, and he's got a 1741 01:23:14,000 --> 01:23:17,360 Speaker 1: great average and he's getting good yardage Abbott and production 1742 01:23:17,439 --> 01:23:20,800 Speaker 1: and everything. But his attitude and the way he goes 1743 01:23:20,840 --> 01:23:24,120 Speaker 1: about his day to day business has changed. You gotta 1744 01:23:24,120 --> 01:23:26,920 Speaker 1: remember the last time we saw Leonard Fournette in twenty eighteen, 1745 01:23:27,040 --> 01:23:29,719 Speaker 1: he's sitting on the bench down there in your place, 1746 01:23:30,760 --> 01:23:33,960 Speaker 1: and with t J. Yeldon alongside him, sitting on the 1747 01:23:34,080 --> 01:23:38,360 Speaker 1: bench during offensive drives. Now, he wasn't active, TJ was, 1748 01:23:39,040 --> 01:23:41,639 Speaker 1: and they were just kind of it was a moping basically, 1749 01:23:41,880 --> 01:23:44,720 Speaker 1: and Tom Coughlin made a public statement after the game 1750 01:23:44,880 --> 01:23:47,800 Speaker 1: chastising both of them basically, right, So he's in the 1751 01:23:47,880 --> 01:23:51,960 Speaker 1: doghouse basically at that point. Then he goes to Wyoming 1752 01:23:52,080 --> 01:23:54,800 Speaker 1: to go with his old college strength and conditioning coach 1753 01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:56,840 Speaker 1: to kind of get away from New Orleans, get away 1754 01:23:56,880 --> 01:23:59,160 Speaker 1: from here, see if he can get back on track. Physically. 1755 01:23:59,160 --> 01:24:02,200 Speaker 1: He'd gotten a little bit, you know, so that's one thing. Okay, 1756 01:24:02,240 --> 01:24:04,799 Speaker 1: it's a good start. Then he gets arrested in April 1757 01:24:04,920 --> 01:24:09,880 Speaker 1: for a suspended license and some other traffic violations. Kind 1758 01:24:09,920 --> 01:24:11,519 Speaker 1: of a wake up call, Okay, what am I doing? 1759 01:24:11,640 --> 01:24:13,400 Speaker 1: Like you let me get my thing in order here, 1760 01:24:13,560 --> 01:24:16,679 Speaker 1: and he said, and he said this the other day. 1761 01:24:16,760 --> 01:24:19,880 Speaker 1: Actually that that kind of woke him up. So he's 1762 01:24:19,920 --> 01:24:23,519 Speaker 1: focused a little more on everything off the field, focused 1763 01:24:23,600 --> 01:24:28,040 Speaker 1: more on football, and you can tell like he's actually 1764 01:24:28,360 --> 01:24:30,320 Speaker 1: he's a pleasure to talk to this year. He was 1765 01:24:30,400 --> 01:24:33,479 Speaker 1: not great with the media at all last year, very short, 1766 01:24:33,560 --> 01:24:37,200 Speaker 1: one word answers, you know, very very short. Not much 1767 01:24:37,240 --> 01:24:40,000 Speaker 1: you're gonna get out of him. This year, he's you 1768 01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:43,440 Speaker 1: can chat him up after the press conference. He's engaged, 1769 01:24:43,600 --> 01:24:46,560 Speaker 1: he's locked in, he's a he's a different guy, and 1770 01:24:46,680 --> 01:24:48,400 Speaker 1: I think that shows up on the field too, so 1771 01:24:48,560 --> 01:24:51,760 Speaker 1: everything around him is different. It's an unbelievable turnaround from 1772 01:24:51,840 --> 01:24:54,160 Speaker 1: last year when there was talk of you gotta get 1773 01:24:54,200 --> 01:24:56,920 Speaker 1: this guy out of here right Well now, it's what 1774 01:24:57,040 --> 01:24:59,559 Speaker 1: would they be without him? They wouldn't be four and four. 1775 01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:02,360 Speaker 1: I could tell you that even with what Gardnerman Sheho's doing. 1776 01:25:02,960 --> 01:25:05,439 Speaker 1: It's a dramatic turnaround and it's I think it's saved 1777 01:25:06,000 --> 01:25:07,800 Speaker 1: at least the first half of the season, and I 1778 01:25:07,840 --> 01:25:11,120 Speaker 1: don't see any signs of slowing down. Yeah, it's amazing. Well, 1779 01:25:11,160 --> 01:25:14,600 Speaker 1: how he's really turned his position and what he's been 1780 01:25:14,640 --> 01:25:16,320 Speaker 1: able to do in just one year. I do remember 1781 01:25:16,400 --> 01:25:18,200 Speaker 1: last year he missed a lot of games at the injury, 1782 01:25:18,680 --> 01:25:21,040 Speaker 1: had a rough offseason, didn't know how much longer, and 1783 01:25:21,160 --> 01:25:22,760 Speaker 1: the welcome out was gonna be rolled out for him 1784 01:25:22,800 --> 01:25:24,920 Speaker 1: in Jacksonville, So we got in a fight during the game, 1785 01:25:26,240 --> 01:25:29,080 Speaker 1: went to Buffalo and his punching shack Lawson and without 1786 01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:30,960 Speaker 1: a helmet on, like what are you doing? You know, 1787 01:25:31,040 --> 01:25:34,200 Speaker 1: there's just dumb things happened last year and that's just 1788 01:25:34,320 --> 01:25:37,040 Speaker 1: the maturation process. And he's the first one to tell 1789 01:25:37,040 --> 01:25:40,040 Speaker 1: you that we have had a jam packed show tonight. 1790 01:25:40,240 --> 01:25:43,839 Speaker 1: So many people to thank, Whitney, Mercillas, Drew Doherty, Brennan Scarlett, 1791 01:25:43,920 --> 01:25:47,679 Speaker 1: DPC Too, Clinch, Durner, Frank Franie, Mark Vandamer Andre Ware 1792 01:25:48,120 --> 01:25:50,960 Speaker 1: and JP Shatick.
