1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,240 Speaker 1: And here's the snap looking tipstab all timing for the 2 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:09,400 Speaker 1: pylon that he's got it, razzle tazzle, touchdown, two stands 3 00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:13,680 Speaker 1: and the Texans go in front. There is no off 4 00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:18,160 Speaker 1: season for your Houston Texans. Game day, he's every day. 5 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 1: We had a lot of energy and we brought a 6 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:24,919 Speaker 1: lot of spark for this organization. Five nights a week. 7 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:29,160 Speaker 1: They hits keep on coming, and the Texans say they 8 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:34,560 Speaker 1: have it and they do no it's Texans all EXAs, 9 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: Hello Texans, and welcome to the program that takes you inside. 10 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: What is going on with your Houston Texans who are 11 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:47,360 Speaker 1: three weeks away from the scheduled start of training camp. 12 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: According to so many, however, nothing is definite. We are 13 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 1: living in Corona time, so nothing is definite in our 14 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 1: football world, our regular world, any world. Right now, we'll 15 00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 1: just hope for the best. There. Rookies are supposed to 16 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 1: report in a couple of weeks. That's just amazing to 17 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: even say, Mark Vanjamer with you, John Harris with us 18 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 1: tonight as always, Johnny, here we go, and look, we're 19 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,480 Speaker 1: three weeks away from the start of this thing. Should 20 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 1: everything go according to plan? In the league took another 21 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 1: step forward the league and its players and agreeing at 22 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: least to some travel protocols today, so they don't have 23 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 1: the complete agreement in place. I'm preseason how it's all 24 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: going to go down, But they're getting some yeses along 25 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: the way, and you know what yeses mean. Eventually the 26 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: sale will be made. That's my story and I'm sticking 27 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 1: to it. Yeah, yes, and the silk gets made. Yeah, 28 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 1: I hope, I hope that's the case. But you know, 29 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: it's just it's good to have agreement on how you're 30 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: going to handle, you know, certain aspects now, the ones 31 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: where there's not an agreement yet, preseason being the biggest one. 32 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: I suppose at this point that has to be hammering 33 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: out the nfl PA. JC Tredder, you know, made some 34 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: comments and delivered a statement for the NFLPA is the 35 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 1: NFLPA president, saying, look, we're not we're not all the 36 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:13,799 Speaker 1: way there on how we approach the preseason. I guess 37 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 1: NFLPA approach doctors and experts and asked them what was 38 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 1: the best way to engage in preparation for the season, 39 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,519 Speaker 1: and I guess the doctors and experts told them, Hey, 40 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: this is the schedule that you should have and the 41 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: two preseason games. That's that was kind of their approach. 42 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,639 Speaker 1: So they don't want to play preseason games. And I 43 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: don't know if I blame them, but yeah, who knows, 44 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. Listen, if it's if, if things continue 45 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: as you said, you keep getting yeses along the way, 46 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 1: then hopefully you'll be able to have a better negotiation 47 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:52,839 Speaker 1: on maybe some more tricky things later on, trickier things 48 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 1: later on. And I know that preseason is going to 49 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: be one of them for sure. Well, there's a document 50 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 1: out there that has travel protocols and training camp protocols 51 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: on it, according to PFT, and NFL dot com doesn't 52 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: have this story yet. Get last checked right before we 53 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: went on the air. This paragraph is worded strangely to me. 54 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,920 Speaker 1: The NFL and NFL Players Association have reached an agreement 55 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,639 Speaker 1: regarding team travel protocols for twenty twenty training camp in preseason. 56 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 1: The document implies strongly that there will be a preseason. However, 57 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: it does not expressly state that preseason games will be played. 58 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: Huh and then in parentheses, per a source with knowledge 59 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 1: of the situation, the length of the preseason is still 60 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 1: being discussed. Okay, good. So that means that we might 61 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 1: have the two games, we might have three, we might 62 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: have four. We might have a reduced preseason, which would 63 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: imply too. I guess I don't think they would just 64 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 1: cut one off. So let's see if that happens. And 65 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: if it does, then you're looking at roughly August twenty second, 66 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 1: when the Texans would play their first preseason game. If 67 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: that's the case, that's clear as mud to everybody. I'm 68 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: sure did you read this paragraph? Well, this is important 69 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: to us, okay. Lights include mandatory masks for all members 70 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: of the traveling party, limitations on the size of the 71 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: traveling party, no more than one hundred and ten non players, 72 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: and no buffets. I saw that, all right, So I 73 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: try to do a quick count, Johnny, you know I did. 74 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: I'm like, wait a minute, don't we have like one 75 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: hundred and ten assistant coaches? I mean, how many some 76 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 1: of these some of these NFL teams have a lot. 77 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: You know, you have twenty coaches. You have all the 78 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 1: guys who have to have to be with the TEA wait, wait, 79 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 1: I can make this a little easier for you. It's 80 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: a little easier for you. Okay. I checked this every 81 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: single time. And I don't know why because I'm always 82 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: curious about it. When we go on a trip, I 83 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: always look at the number of people that are actually 84 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 1: on the plane. Yes you do, Oh, the total number, 85 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: the total number. I look at the number of people. 86 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:56,280 Speaker 1: That number is usually around one hundred and fifty two 87 00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty three. But that's regular season. That's regular season. Yeah, 88 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: that's regular season. But if if this is talking about 89 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: for training camp and preseason, Oh, I got you. Uh yeah, 90 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 1: so yeah, that's that's preseason. But but I'm sorry, that's 91 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: one hundred fifty three people. But that's also with a 92 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 1: number of different people on the plane that normally wouldn't 93 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: travel during the preseason. So I don't know. It's it's 94 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: gonna be very interesting what's gonna happen with the preseason. 95 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,479 Speaker 1: But like you said, and I think that's a very 96 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: important line, PERI source with knowledge a situation. The length 97 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: of the preseason is still being discussed. I think I 98 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,599 Speaker 1: think it's gonna be two games. I think that's you 99 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: and I've talked about this. I think it's gonna be 100 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: two games. Another what the nfl PA says that they 101 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: think it should be down to zero at least this year, especially, 102 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 1: you know, putting a players in peril for two games 103 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: that wouldn't really count, but for a lot of guys 104 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 1: in the locker room, those two games actually mean a 105 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: whole heck of a lot. So I don't know how 106 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: we could say they don't count. They don't count on 107 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: the record book, yes, but they count in a lot 108 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 1: of different ways. So take it from there. You know what, 109 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 1: It puts the Union in a tough spot, really, because 110 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 1: if the Union could open up the roster to one 111 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty people in a non COVID year during 112 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: preseason only, they might do that because, yeah, more opportunities 113 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: for guys to potentially I guess they're gonna take jobs 114 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: of current members, but you know what I'm saying, it's 115 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,679 Speaker 1: just more potential jobs out there. They're making something during 116 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: this the practice squads are bigger. I don't know as 117 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: I say that. Yeah, they would, they wouldn't support, you know, 118 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: wide open roster, unlimited amount of players, but they'd probably 119 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: like a few more. But in this year, with the 120 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 1: safety issues with Corona, the talk is and you're reading 121 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 1: these reports that there will be fewer players than usual, 122 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: not your usual ninety man roster in preseason anyway, which 123 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: leads me to say, why not, because don't you need 124 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: this huge practice squad cape ability anyway? Theoretically, I would 125 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 1: think you do if you have a bunch of positive tests. 126 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: So again, clear as mud, nobody knows. We're getting trickles 127 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: of information, little bits at a time, and we'll let 128 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 1: you know when we know. All right, this is what 129 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: I wanted to do first because in the second segment 130 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 1: we're gonna play the very popular game Who's Better. But 131 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 1: right now, Johnny, I wanted to rank the position group importance, 132 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: and really I think it really starts with what's third 133 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: most important on this football team? Because there's so much 134 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: talk about quarterback of course, with especially with Mahomes just 135 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: signed the big deal yesterday. We discussed it on the show. 136 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: It's almost Watson watch and Dak watch as far as 137 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: who's next with the quarterback contract. But we all agree 138 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: quarterbacks the most important position on the team. But there's 139 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: no way that offensive line is not second. Correct well, 140 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: the fact that to protect to protect number one, you 141 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: need number two. Right, Yeah, I don't know if I 142 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: said that properly, but but yeah, the Sean healthy, then 143 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any question. Look, we've seen, we've 144 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: seen how things have gone when Sean has not been 145 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:15,119 Speaker 1: kept healthy. You know, twenty seventeen, we saw how that went. 146 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 1: We saw in twenty eighteen he's taken sixty two sacks, 147 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: he's taken the bust of Jackson. He's just getting you know, 148 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: beat up all the time out in the field, and 149 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: obviously that's not something we want to have happened. So yeah, 150 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: I would think there's no question that number two on 151 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: the list has to be the group that protects number 152 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: one on the list. Yes, all right, So what's number three? 153 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 1: I think this is where it gets a little more difficult. 154 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: Running Backs, receiver, D line, secondary. What do you think 155 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 1: number three? The number three most important position group is 156 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 1: for the Houston Texans, maybe all football teams. Maybe it's 157 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: gonna be the same for everybody. But what do you 158 00:08:52,640 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: think here? My? Oh boy, it's tough. I did something 159 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:05,679 Speaker 1: today that I I'm not proud of. You didn't watch 160 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:11,320 Speaker 1: the playoff game again? Did you wait? Johnny? I did this? 161 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: Is it? You know? Yesterday? I paused it right at 162 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 1: the point where TIMI Fairberry hits the field goal to 163 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: make it twenty four nothing and then you watched the 164 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: rest of it. Yeah, I had to. I had to, 165 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: you know. And it's interesting, Mark because I think it's 166 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 1: a good exercise because it shows that defensively, you know, 167 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: you didn't have to Sean Gibson, you didn't have Jilillade, 168 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: you had a less than one hundred percent healthy JJ 169 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: Watt obviously Justin Reeves playing with the torn labraum. And look, 170 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: I know everybody at that point of the years banged up, 171 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: but you're facing the Chiefs team that's coming off bye 172 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: week and was as close to one hundred percent as 173 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 1: it possibly could be. And as I watched that game, 174 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: there are two things that stood out. Number one, the 175 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: pass rush isn't getting there. Number two, the pass rush 176 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 1: is not being disciplined and how it goes about getting there. 177 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:13,559 Speaker 1: And that was allowing Patrick to get outside when he 178 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: shouldn't have. He did not throw from the well. He 179 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 1: made a couple of big scramble. There was one scramble 180 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 1: that obviously it's not something that came up in the 181 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 1: recap of the game, but there was one on the 182 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 1: drive when it was twenty four twenty one. Patrick scrambles 183 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: to the right and gets up the sideline for about 184 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 1: a fifteen twenty yards scramble, and it was like, oh 185 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: it because it felt like maybe there's a chance, you know, 186 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: you get out of there twenty four twenty one to half. 187 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 1: Not great, but you still have the lead. Maybe you 188 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 1: feel okay, not great. But then he gets that scramble 189 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: and that gets him down there. Then he has another 190 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: one that gets him down inside the five. Another scramble, 191 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: both of them to the right. Now he heard the 192 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: Titans with that too, So it's not as if the 193 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 1: Texans were alone in But to me, to answer your 194 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: question in a roundabout way, it's numb. It's the pass rush. 195 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: The pass rush is number three because if you think 196 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: about the teams that that half that Texans have to 197 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 1: beat to go win not only the AFC South, but 198 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,719 Speaker 1: to win the entire AFC, you're gonna have to beat 199 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: the Chiefs, the Ravens, the Steelers, the Titans, the Colts, 200 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: and all those teams can all in. Yes, I know 201 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 1: the Ravens not as much as the others because lamar 202 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 1: can hurt you number different ways. But you better have 203 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: some pretty good edge players in the way that you 204 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,439 Speaker 1: play the Ravens. To me, it's got to be your 205 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: edge guys. How you can get heat on Mahomes, Roblisberger, 206 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 1: Lamar Ryan, Tannehill, Philip Rivers, your ability to get heat 207 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 1: on those players is paramount, paramount, and beating those teams, 208 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: you have to Your secondary can only cover so long 209 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 1: back there. I mean they can. You can do a 210 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: lot of different things to maybe cover up the fact 211 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 1: you don't have a lot of great man guys. You 212 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,679 Speaker 1: can do some bracket coverage, you can double cover somebody, 213 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: but then you're gonna face a team that's got two 214 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: three weapons out there. Then I was like, well, who 215 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: you doublecover? Who are you then leaving one on one? 216 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 1: How are you going to cover this guy? So to me, 217 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: if the pass rush becomes that much more important because 218 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 1: you've got to get the ball out of Patrick's hands quickly, 219 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: you've got to forced Roethlisberger to throw it fast. Philip Rivers, 220 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: same thing we saw at the end of last year 221 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 1: when he was forced to throw the ball out of rhythm. 222 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: He was throwing picks left and right. To win the AFC, 223 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: to win AFC South and the AFC, you've got to 224 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 1: beat those teams that I mentioned and to do it, 225 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: you got to be able to get pressure from a 226 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 1: number of different spots, and that is going to rely 227 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:51,439 Speaker 1: on JJ, Watt, Whitney, Merciless, Ross Blacklock puting out where 228 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: he rushes from Jacob Martin, and not only that mark 229 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 1: that those players are important, but how they work together. 230 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 1: Watching the game again, you could tell it was pretty 231 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: clear that that JJ's absence really kind of upset the 232 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: Apple cart in that they weren't It was like they 233 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 1: were doing things that they had done in a while 234 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 1: together and some of that, some of that that rust 235 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 1: to build for not only JJ, but just the guys 236 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 1: on the field with him, like playing together, like working together. 237 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: We've talked about that in the past. How back in 238 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: fourteen in particular, you know, JJ would just go and 239 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: everybody would kind of react, and they knew how to 240 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 1: react around him. In that game against the Chief Spoil, 241 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 1: we did not. That was not there, and that was 242 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 1: that was not there. So to me, that pass rush 243 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: has gotta be pristine, and the very next thing beyond 244 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: that's gonna end up being the corners. So to me, 245 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 1: it's dashaun one O line two, pass rush, three corners four. 246 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: Everybod makes a big deal about the receivers because hop 247 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: and all that kind of stuff. Either receivers are five 248 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 1: or or lower. Because if you get the time to 249 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: throw and you have the Shaun Watson, you have enough 250 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: speeder receiver that those guys are gonna get open. And 251 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 1: I'm I'm not as panicked about that. But the pass 252 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 1: rush that's got to go up another notch of three 253 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 1: this year, boy. And we'll get it to more of 254 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 1: our training camp preview shows as these weeks progress. I mean, 255 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 1: here we are July seventh, but I feel like, and 256 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: this might be a training camp type of topic. You know, 257 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: you're gonna need one of these guys to step up big. 258 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 1: Whether it's Scarlett who had what three and a half 259 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: sacks last year that was nice and and look he 260 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 1: came around at twenty sixteen as an undrafted rookie, continues 261 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: to take his game up, then he's also there to 262 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 1: play special teams, to do other things for you. But 263 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 1: you know, Scarlett edge of four, coming off the injury 264 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: season after a promising rookie campaign, showed flashes of what 265 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: he could possibly do. And maybe Jonathan Grennard as well. 266 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: You know, somebody among those three has to step up, 267 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 1: not give you twelve sacks, but give you something that 268 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 1: maybe they haven't given you previously. You know, maybe Scarlett 269 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: takes it into the five to tent range and edge 270 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,240 Speaker 1: of four gives you a little and Grenard and I 271 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 1: don't know how you decide who's on the field when 272 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: and who you're gonna throw at the quarterback at whatever time, 273 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: but it feels like that needs to happen. And then 274 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: you're looking at Charles and Meta, who who in his 275 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: second year. Everyone's excited to see what he can do 276 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: because he looked good as a rookie. And I'm sure 277 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: he's excited as well because that year one to year 278 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 1: two jump are you're gonna get it out of him. 279 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 1: It's gonna be pretty cool to watch. But you know, 280 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: I think you nailed it that that front seven, whoever 281 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 1: you're sending after the quarterback, if that could be a 282 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: position group, that's got to be third. Yeah, you're that's 283 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: probably the best way of putting it. Whoever, whoever is 284 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 1: being sent after the quarterback, And look, that could that 285 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: could be uh, you know, b Mac, it could end 286 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: up being Zach And you know, there's a lot of 287 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 1: different people that could that encompasses. But I think what 288 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 1: you have and I want to make sure I think 289 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 1: what you have. Mark, are you have a lot of options? 290 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 1: You do have a lot of options. You know, you 291 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: just mentioned the Edge guys. You're talking about Scarlett, Grenard Whitney, 292 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: Jacob Martin, Duke Edge four. You've got guys on the 293 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 1: outside that it's just a matter of okay, which which 294 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: guy is going to step up and do it consistently. 295 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: Whitney's shown he can do it and he's done it 296 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 1: since twenty twelve. But that's obviously one guy. And we've 297 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 1: seen teams that have been successful. They bring it with 298 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: you know, numerous options. You know, the second the second 299 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 1: line or the second rush group comes in, and boy, 300 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: that group is just as good as the one that 301 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 1: one off the field. I mean thinking about the Colts. 302 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: You know when the Colts go you know when the 303 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: Colts had Justin Houston on the field with with Marcus 304 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: Hunt and Dnico Autry Rush and the Edge, and then 305 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: Houston would go off and Comico Ture would come on. 306 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: It's like good Greek, there's no drop off. You know, 307 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: you've got the veteran Houston, but then you've got this 308 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: blur of a pass rush specialist in Comico Turey, and 309 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: then the cults really got hurt when trure got hurt 310 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,119 Speaker 1: because they didn't have that. They weren't coming at you 311 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: in waves. They were only coming at you, you know, 312 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 1: with their frontline guys. You know, Ben Banagoo wasn't ready 313 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 1: to step up and take over that role. But they're 314 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: kind of similar to us. They get two ray back, 315 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,639 Speaker 1: they've got Bandagoo, they still got justin Houston. They've got 316 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 1: a lot of options, but they're looking for the same thing. 317 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 1: They're looking for, which guys are gonna step up of 318 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,439 Speaker 1: our young players, which guys are gonna step up and 319 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 1: get after Deshaun Watson and get after Gardner Minshew and 320 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 1: get after Ryan Tannehill. They're kind of in the same 321 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,680 Speaker 1: boat from that perspective. But when they had that thing 322 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: going at twenty eighteen, they were coming at us with 323 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 1: a couple of waves of defensive of defensive linement, and 324 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 1: we really struggled with it in the two games we 325 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 1: played them in December and January of twenty eighteen. Well 326 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 1: I brought up a mena who and maybe we should 327 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 1: throw in Blacklock as well if he can get after 328 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: it because the Cults are a great example here, Johnny. 329 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: I mean you have Hugh do with eleven sacks. You 330 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,679 Speaker 1: got sacks coming from all over the place, shared with 331 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: four and a half, you got five from Leonard. This 332 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:07,959 Speaker 1: is just last year when they weren't nearly as good. 333 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 1: They were eighteenth and scoring defense. But that's why they 334 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: signed Buckner so they could get pressure up the middle. 335 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 1: And that's what the Texans need to do. You know, 336 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 1: it's not just the edge guys. It's hey, I'm getting 337 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,439 Speaker 1: pressure from the edge, and now the quarterbacks stepping up 338 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,919 Speaker 1: in the pocket and completing a pass down field or 339 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: just finding his outlet and getting out of jail that way. 340 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 1: So gott to find a way to get pressure up 341 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 1: the middle. Okay, little conversation there about position group rankings. 342 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 1: We don't need to take that all the way, but 343 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: you know we will as these weeks progress and we 344 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 1: get closer to actual practices.

Yeah, but 451 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: we're we're there's all this great health stuff and we're 452 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 1: eating out falfa sprouts and just feeling so good and 453 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: energetic and healthy. It's we're better than we are today. 454 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, twenty years from now. Stuff, 455 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: I'm not doing it. Yeah, I know I'm not either. 456 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 1: If they make out falfa pizza. Okay, let's let's ask 457 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: you this. Though it's twenty forty, it's twenty forty. Who's 458 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: a better quarterback as we look back from twenty forty, 459 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: Tom Brady or Patrick Mahomes. Now, let me preface this, 460 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 1: which would have meant I had to say this before 461 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 1: I asked a question. But let me just let me 462 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 1: just throw this out there. Because PFT Pro Football Talk 463 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 1: had another tweet that upset me, which was I'm gonna 464 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,119 Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna look it up. But Mahomes is 465 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,679 Speaker 1: on his way to perhaps becoming the greatest player in 466 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 1: football history. Yeah. Now, we had the best quarterback ever 467 00:25:57,720 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 1: like a couple of weeks ago, and I was upset 468 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 1: about that. And now the greatest player ever at any 469 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 1: position because he's played three years and actually's played too. 470 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,680 Speaker 1: He's been in the league three years and he makes 471 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,639 Speaker 1: half a billion dollar contract, and I'm really happy for 472 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,880 Speaker 1: him for that. But I always think it's a little 473 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,719 Speaker 1: too early to anoint people when when they've won one 474 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. I think he's amazing, But Johnny in twenty forty, 475 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: who's better, Tom Brady or Patrick Mahomes. You hit me 476 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: where it hurts, because I'm the same way. It's it's 477 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 1: sort of like, you know, after the first or second 478 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 1: season of Glee and you're like, this is the greatest 479 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:40,120 Speaker 1: show ever. Glee is so much better than Branch and 480 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,880 Speaker 1: then after Glee's run, You're like, he wasn't even close. 481 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: Now is he Glee? Yeah, Mahomes is Glee. He's Leah Michell. 482 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 1: But so I hate comparing incomplete novels to works of art. 483 00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: Because that's really what Tom is and we know he's 484 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,159 Speaker 1: doesn't have too much more, um to be done with 485 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 1: his career and Patrick has so many you know, so 486 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: much more ahead of him. Now. I don't think that 487 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 1: that Patrick is going to suffer any sort of you know, 488 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 1: drop off. But did you did you think that in 489 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty five, after Dan Reno lost to the forty 490 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,760 Speaker 1: nine ers, that Dan Reno would not make another Super Bowl? Um? 491 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 1: Those are the kind of things. Did you think after 492 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 1: twenty ten, after Aaron Rodgers won one Super Bowl that, ah, 493 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: you know he'll go get two more? Of course? Uh, 494 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,919 Speaker 1: And he's not. He hasn't even been back in the 495 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl, and you know, thanks to Brandon Bostick, 496 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 1: who can't cover outside kick. So my point of that 497 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 1: is there's so much more that Patrick Mahomes has to 498 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 1: do to get to that point. My fear is that 499 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 1: if he does that, he does that he has he 500 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 1: has he has the right mindset. You know, he grew 501 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: up the son of a professional athlete, so he's been 502 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:09,440 Speaker 1: around professional locker rooms. He's not intimidated. He has now 503 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: gotten such he has such a stature in the league 504 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:21,400 Speaker 1: now that I just don't see him taking a step 505 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 1: back for any reason other than he gets hurt, can't 506 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: stay healthy for whatever reason. You know, his arm starts 507 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,640 Speaker 1: to show, you know, some problems, but you know, look, 508 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: he played baseball for a long time. I'm gonna just 509 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: playing baseball is something actually helps your arm strength and 510 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 1: helps you maintain a lively arm. And the thing about 511 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 1: it is, yeah, physically the arm might you know at 512 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,479 Speaker 1: some point, Wayne a little bit, But he's so good 513 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 1: cerebrally that he knows what he's looking at. He knows 514 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: what he wants to do. Now, there are some things 515 00:28:56,360 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: he gets away with because of his physical gifts. Right 516 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 1: now he won't be able to get away with. But 517 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: he's not gonna take an eleven step dropping the super 518 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: Bowl when he's thirty two. He won't need to. He'll 519 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: just take a normal seven step drop and then throw 520 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 1: it to whoever is replacement for Tyreek Hill is So, 521 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 1: I think it's plausible, But Man, to win five more 522 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 1: Super Bowls, Yeah, it's a lot to ask. Not easy, Man, 523 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: that is not easy. But you could still be considered 524 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 1: you could still be considered the best quarterback, maybe the 525 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: best player without winning super Bowls. But Mark. How many 526 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 1: quarterbacks have won three Super Bowls? How many three super Bowls? 527 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 1: It's not it's not a long list. And the thing is, 528 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: there are some really good young quarterbacks in this league 529 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: that are gonna get there is hopefully at some point 530 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 1: de Sean gets gets one, two or five. You think that, 531 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 1: you know, Josh Allen with Buffalo, with what they've put 532 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 1: around him, you know, sort of like Seattle Day with 533 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson a few years ago. There's so much talent 534 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 1: around Josh Allen that he can't help but succeed and 535 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: get better. They're gonna be some really good quarterbacks in 536 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 1: this league that are like, I'm gonna go get mine too. 537 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 1: What am I missing here? I've got Bradshaw, I'm Montana Brady. 538 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 1: I mean, what's that ak Man? Geez Akman? You know 539 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 1: that's a name that never comes up when you talk 540 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 1: about the all time great quarterbacks, but Bradshaw's doesn't either. Really. Yeah, 541 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 1: and and look it's another era and all that wait, 542 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 1: say your names again, Bradshaw, Montana Brady, A man? Who 543 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 1: am I missing? I think that's I don't know why, Um, 544 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 1: that's it? Yeah, So and think about what those wait, 545 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 1: stops got three? Right, No, he's got two. Oh yeah, 546 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: because a man has three, they have five? Right, Okay, 547 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 1: got it, He's he's got two, So he's been, he's 548 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 1: been more. You know, Ben gets one, that gives him three. 549 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 1: But but the point being, that's a lot to ask 550 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 1: four names that have three Super Bowl titles. Yeah, I 551 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 1: think that. I think the Chiefs are built to get 552 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 1: another one, and get another one very soon. But how 553 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: does the cap change things? In a few years, that 554 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: cap is gonna be eaten up by a lot of 555 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 1: Pats Pat's money. How does that impact the Chiefs going forward? 556 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: Are they gonna what are they gonna do with Chris Jones? 557 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: I listen looking at Patrick Mahomes deal, It looks pretty 558 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 1: clear that they did that because they want to clear 559 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 1: some money, at least in the near term for Chris 560 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 1: Jones to come back, because it's vital to get him back. 561 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 1: But you can only keep pushing that can down the road. 562 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 1: You eventually got to pay that credit card bill, and 563 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a rich one to pay. So Mahomes 564 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 1: is gonna have to show at some point that he 565 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: may not have Tyreek, he may not have Kelsey. Down 566 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: the road he might have to do with a bunch 567 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 1: of rookies, they could get really squeezed. They could get 568 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 1: really squeezed next year. With a revenue decline this year. 569 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,959 Speaker 1: It's gonna be interesting how it affects them and a 570 00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 1: bunch of teams who are really tight on cap space. 571 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 1: So the point with that is, it's Brady, Okay, Brady, 572 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: Yeah for Dawn in twenty forty. All right, let's get 573 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: back to the present here. It's twenty twenty again. Better 574 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 1: backup quarterback? Who's better? That's what we're doing here, t 575 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:21,200 Speaker 1: J Yates or Sage Rosenfels. Who. Boy, If I've got 576 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 1: to go win one game, That's kind of the way 577 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: that I think about quarterbacks from that perspective. If I've 578 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: got to win one game, yeah, I think I want TJ. 579 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: And that's hard to say because I was banging the 580 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 1: drum not so loudly, but I was of that mindset, 581 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:44,479 Speaker 1: you know. Oh seven, I was like, I really wouldn't 582 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 1: mind seeing Sage a whole lot more than we are 583 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: spending a lot of money on Matt. I don't know 584 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,479 Speaker 1: that I like it all that much. Let's just go 585 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 1: with Sage. So I've I've been a Sage guy for 586 00:32:54,080 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 1: a long time, but I've seen TJ up close pull 587 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 1: things out of the fire when it didn't even look possible. 588 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: It's like, how you're gonna win this game in Cincinnati 589 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 1: in twenty eleven, you know, twenty fifteen on the Monday night, 590 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 1: He's gonna pull that one out of the fire. Yeah, man, 591 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 1: that's agree. I agree. So I'm gonna go with t J. 592 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 1: I think I think rosen fells and people forget how 593 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:26,360 Speaker 1: explosive the offense could be with Sage. Rosenfeld's pulling the trigger. 594 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 1: I mean they put up the time they were down 595 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 1: thirty two to seven to Tennessee and they took the 596 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 1: lead in the game. That was a monster performance by Rosenfelds. 597 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 1: He put up some big numbers. He had some big 598 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 1: games for this team. I know he had Rosenkopter, we 599 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,520 Speaker 1: get it. They had a seventeen point lead in that game. 600 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 1: So I'm looking at the plus side of being able 601 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 1: to do that, and then he had some negative side 602 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,040 Speaker 1: of you know Rosencopter fumble and all that. Then the 603 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 1: ensuing fumble on THET I think about it, well, it's 604 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: that's a really good one. That's a really good one 605 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 1: mark because Sage. The one night that I remember thinking 606 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 1: even more so than ever before, that Sage could be 607 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 1: the guy. Was the catchup bottles night against the Broncos. 608 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,560 Speaker 1: Look good. That was a back to back went performance 609 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:18,239 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay on a Sunday in Denver on a Thursday. 610 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 1: He was phenomenal in that game against Denver too. I 611 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:24,800 Speaker 1: remember thinking, boy, this could look really good if Sage 612 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:28,320 Speaker 1: were the guy all the time? You know who is 613 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 1: running back? Wasn't a win over Tampa Darius Walker? Oh yeah, 614 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 1: Notre Dame. Yeah so sorry Sean Pendergas. But I mean 615 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: that wasn't exactly like trotting out Eric Dickerson that night. 616 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: No so, but Darius Walker got it done. He did, 617 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 1: he did, So. I thought it was a pretty decent question. 618 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 1: It's one of those, Okay, one quarterback puts up a 619 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,760 Speaker 1: lot of numbers, and Sage actually as a winning record 620 00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 1: as a starter for the Texans. But Yates has just 621 00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 1: won some big games for this team and you have 622 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,359 Speaker 1: to give it to him. Um so, so I'll go 623 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 1: with that. Yeah, we do. So. We love t J Okay, 624 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 1: who's better? We're still doing it here, all right? Running 625 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:13,360 Speaker 1: back division Johnny Now a few weeks ago, I asked 626 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 1: you we're going down memory lane with the all time 627 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: running backs, who's better Emmet's Smith or Barry Sanders. I 628 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:24,360 Speaker 1: think we had another one, Walter Payton versus Um. I 629 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 1: don't know, maybe it was Dickerson or something, but let 630 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 1: me go here with you. Top three running backs on 631 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 1: the all time list, Top four Smith, Peyton, Frank Gore, 632 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 1: and Barry Sanders. Now Gore is still active, of course, 633 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:41,400 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson is fifth. I'm not going to ask you 634 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 1: who's better Adrian Peterson or Frank Gore because I gotta 635 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 1: feel you're gonna say Peterson correct, Yes, okay, But who's 636 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 1: better Adrian Peterson or anybody else behind him on this 637 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:59,759 Speaker 1: list that you think is more deserving? I'm gonna say 638 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 1: other than Jim Brown, because Jim Brown is in his 639 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 1: own special category. You get Jim Brown into a debate, 640 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,439 Speaker 1: you get a lot of problems only because I think that, 641 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 1: you know, most of us didn't watch him play. You 642 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 1: get a lot of people talk about, you know, was 643 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: the game still too segregated? What he played was you know, 644 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 1: he could have continued to play, he didn't want to 645 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: continue to play. He did, but the Browns wanted him 646 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 1: to return from filming The Dirty Dozen in Europe, and 647 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 1: he stopped his career in sixty five. He could have 648 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 1: put up a bunch more numbers here. So I don't 649 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:36,480 Speaker 1: know if I want to include Jim Brown in the debate, 650 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:38,800 Speaker 1: but you tell me if it's that important. So who's 651 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 1: better Adrian Peterson, who's in fifth here, or anybody else 652 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:44,759 Speaker 1: behind him on the list. I'm gonna give you the 653 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 1: next few names, Curtis Martin Ladanian, Tomlinson, Jerome Bettis Dickerson, 654 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:54,440 Speaker 1: Tony Dorris, Set, Jim Brown, Marshall Fock Edger, and James Marcus, Allen, 655 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:59,279 Speaker 1: Frank o'haris. I'll stop there, man, that's a that's a 656 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 1: lot of good names. I mean, you said someone was like, 657 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:05,400 Speaker 1: whoa okay, and then I thought back to it's Adrian Peterson. 658 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson his prime other than Jim Brown, I mean 659 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 1: Jim Brown. Just Jim Brown plays another three years. He 660 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 1: sets a number that's gonna be really, really hard for 661 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 1: anybody to break. So I would put in a Jim 662 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 1: Jim's kind of in a class by himself. I thought 663 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:25,720 Speaker 1: about Eric Dickerson. Eric Dickerson is one of my favorite 664 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: running backs to watch because he had such a fluid, 665 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 1: upright running style, but in a game in which power, 666 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:38,760 Speaker 1: explosiveness burst through two and through the second level ability 667 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 1: to take it to the house, he just could just 668 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:45,880 Speaker 1: scared anybody every time he had the ball. That was 669 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson. I just don't know that there's anybody. Look. 670 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:53,880 Speaker 1: I like Marshall fall for all of the dual threat 671 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 1: things that he did. He was such a great pass blocker, 672 00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:00,480 Speaker 1: receiver runner. He did it in in a form way, so 673 00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,839 Speaker 1: he's a little bit scared different in Ladania, Thomlinson kind 674 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 1: of the same way to me. He was probably just 675 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 1: a shade below Marshall from that perspective. Dickerson was the 676 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 1: one guy I think teams were scared of, like Adrian, 677 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:20,759 Speaker 1: but Dickerson was also surly. He was also difficult. I 678 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 1: don't think Adrian is that way. I mean, I think 679 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 1: Adrian is just a kind of a good old, good 680 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 1: old boy Texan and he's always been, you know, great. 681 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 1: Met him one time, I think it was after his 682 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:34,640 Speaker 1: rookie year. Just a huge smile, How you doing, mister Harrison. Mean, 683 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 1: he's a really nice guy, but he Dickerson was not 684 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:40,920 Speaker 1: that way. Peterson I think probably scared teams more than 685 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 1: Dickerson did, just slightly. But that's who I would have 686 00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 1: it down too. So I'm going with Adrian Peterson. Wow, 687 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:52,320 Speaker 1: that's strong. Those are big names on that list. Huge 688 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 1: names and yards don't mean everything. I mean. O. J. 689 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 1: Simpson is twenty first on the all time rushing list, 690 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 1: and he was unbelievable as a running back. He was 691 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 1: such a killer on the field. All right, stop, stop, okay, 692 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,839 Speaker 1: coming up. I have a couple of more of these. 693 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:13,399 Speaker 1: I'll save one for next week. And I was gonna 694 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 1: give you the Broadway musical one. You can tell me 695 00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 1: when we get back. Is yeah, yeah, we do.

All right, No new news 792 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 1: on the preseason if you joined us late. The NFL 793 00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:28,360 Speaker 1: and NFL Players Association have reached an agreement on travel 794 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,319 Speaker 1: protocols for training camp in preseason, but they have not 795 00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:36,600 Speaker 1: really indicated how many preseason games, if any, would be played. Again, 796 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:40,360 Speaker 1: we're still standing at four officially. A lot of reports 797 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 1: out there. It's been cut to two possibly, but nothing 798 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:47,560 Speaker 1: is official, and the team is scheduled to report three 799 00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 1: weeks from today. So that's pretty cool stuff. Let's hope 800 00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,400 Speaker 1: that still happens. I think if this is just me 801 00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:55,799 Speaker 1: talking here, Mark Vanderma and John Harris with you by 802 00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 1: the way of Texans All Access, this is just my 803 00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:01,359 Speaker 1: personal thought that if you cut it down to two 804 00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:05,320 Speaker 1: preseason games, you might delay the start of camp only 805 00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:08,719 Speaker 1: because Johnny, you're not playing that first preseason game. You 806 00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:11,960 Speaker 1: have three weeks ramp up to a preseason game. So 807 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:15,239 Speaker 1: six weeks to the regular season with only two preseason 808 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:19,279 Speaker 1: games in that six week period, that's a lot. I'll 809 00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:21,840 Speaker 1: practice for these guys, but if they're gonna break it 810 00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:26,799 Speaker 1: up and practice in different squads, if you will, different platoons, 811 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:31,960 Speaker 1: as has been suggested reportedly by the Players Association, they 812 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:33,960 Speaker 1: might need the extra time just to get all the 813 00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:35,799 Speaker 1: work in. We'll see how they handle it a lot 814 00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:39,319 Speaker 1: of different things. Yeah, I mean it could. I mean 815 00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:42,359 Speaker 1: they're I don't know how it'll all get done, Mark, 816 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:45,759 Speaker 1: but there might be very like you said, practicing in 817 00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:53,800 Speaker 1: different units on certain days. Obviously, unlike high school, where 818 00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:56,760 Speaker 1: you do have some crossover. Some kids play defense and offense. 819 00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:58,640 Speaker 1: You don't have that here. You could have the offense 820 00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 1: practice in the morning and work through various things defense 821 00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:04,919 Speaker 1: practices in the afternoon. I don't know if you could. 822 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:08,279 Speaker 1: I don't know if you could do that, But why 823 00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:10,520 Speaker 1: not if you're not gonna have, you know, eleven on 824 00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:12,920 Speaker 1: eleven that day, if you're just working on techniquets of 825 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:15,720 Speaker 1: individual stuff, maybe that's the way you go about doing 826 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:18,879 Speaker 1: certain things. And then there are certain days that are 827 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:23,080 Speaker 1: specifically for the entire squad. I don't know. I don't 828 00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:26,399 Speaker 1: know how. I don't know how this all completely gets done. 829 00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:30,000 Speaker 1: I know when the nfl PA, when last week, the 830 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:35,480 Speaker 1: nfl PA put forth a forty eight day they basically 831 00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:39,120 Speaker 1: broke down in like what they felt like a good 832 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:42,239 Speaker 1: ramp up to Week one would be. And it was 833 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:45,879 Speaker 1: like three days of reporting and medical and equipment. Then 834 00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:48,960 Speaker 1: it was like essentially it was like ten days then 835 00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:54,400 Speaker 1: of OTAs in mini camp. Then it was like fourteen 836 00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:57,359 Speaker 1: days of no padded practice, and then it was like 837 00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:01,319 Speaker 1: eight days of padded practice. Um, and I can't remember 838 00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:04,440 Speaker 1: no and no games. They did not they did not 839 00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:09,080 Speaker 1: build games into that that particular schedule, but I could 840 00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:12,520 Speaker 1: see their point, which is, take the elements that were 841 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:17,239 Speaker 1: used to doing conditioning. Um. Oh, there was a period 842 00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:19,520 Speaker 1: for conditioning. There was like a five to seven day 843 00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:22,120 Speaker 1: period of conditioning. Take all those periods that we did 844 00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:23,800 Speaker 1: in the offseason that we missed in the off season, 845 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:28,440 Speaker 1: conditioning period, mini camps, and no tas. Put that at 846 00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:33,120 Speaker 1: the front end where you can still keep players separate, 847 00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:38,080 Speaker 1: not completely, but you can do more group stuff and 848 00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,920 Speaker 1: keep you know, you know, groups of you know, twelve 849 00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:43,600 Speaker 1: to fourteen people or groups of eight to ten people 850 00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:46,880 Speaker 1: versus a whole squad of eighty five to ninety guys. 851 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:49,680 Speaker 1: You can then kind of spread that out and it 852 00:48:49,719 --> 00:48:52,480 Speaker 1: just buys more time and then you can get into 853 00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:55,480 Speaker 1: practice you know, two and a half, three weeks down 854 00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:57,680 Speaker 1: the road or whatever it is, UM and then get 855 00:48:57,719 --> 00:49:00,359 Speaker 1: yourself ready and there would be no preseason games at 856 00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:02,759 Speaker 1: that point. And I thought the schedule as I looked at, 857 00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:05,120 Speaker 1: I was like it was kind of interesting. But essentially 858 00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:09,359 Speaker 1: taking all the pieces they're used to doing conditioning mini 859 00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:15,680 Speaker 1: campota's um, the the the acclamation period of training camp, 860 00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:19,399 Speaker 1: and putting that all together in at forty eighth day 861 00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:22,680 Speaker 1: period to grew ready for week one of the regular season. 862 00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:24,319 Speaker 1: So I thought it was a good plan. You just 863 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:27,680 Speaker 1: don't have those two preseason games. But we'll see what happens. Yeah, 864 00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:32,040 Speaker 1: I think I think that could work. I'd be eager 865 00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:33,880 Speaker 1: to hear what the coaches think of it. And you 866 00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:36,959 Speaker 1: know what they probably think of it now. They look 867 00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:40,040 Speaker 1: they're not current two coaches, thirty two coaching staffs are 868 00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 1: gonna think differently about everything. Yeah that, yeah, you know that. Well. 869 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:48,040 Speaker 1: I think some guys really love I mean, they all 870 00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:50,719 Speaker 1: seem to like to join practices, most of them, you know, 871 00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:54,080 Speaker 1: I know about players, you know, being different sometimes with 872 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:57,360 Speaker 1: their opinions. Aaron Rodgers, for one, doesn't like joint practices. 873 00:49:58,040 --> 00:49:59,799 Speaker 1: But they all seem to like that. But that's out 874 00:49:59,840 --> 00:50:01,959 Speaker 1: the here. And you don't want your team to beat 875 00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:06,200 Speaker 1: up on itself too much if you keep the roster, 876 00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:09,360 Speaker 1: I mean, if you go ones against the threes or whatever. 877 00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:11,839 Speaker 1: You don't do that much in camp, right, you really 878 00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:14,080 Speaker 1: go once against the ones because you're trying to iron 879 00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:16,440 Speaker 1: sharp and iron kind of thing. But maybe this is 880 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:19,760 Speaker 1: a year where you're gonna go Cecil Shorts Mountain Union, 881 00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:22,440 Speaker 1: you know, where they have two hundred players on campus 882 00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:24,880 Speaker 1: and you know, they have all these farm teams or 883 00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:27,799 Speaker 1: whatever that, so they're feeding into the main one. Uh 884 00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:29,920 Speaker 1: maybe they're they're going a ninety man version of that 885 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:31,719 Speaker 1: or an eighty man version of that, and you'll you'll 886 00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:33,680 Speaker 1: beat up on the scout team, so to speak, or 887 00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:37,280 Speaker 1: not scout team, but uh, yeah that on that final forty, 888 00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:39,560 Speaker 1: if you will, we'll see how they handle it. Are 889 00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 1: you gonna answer my question about the Who's Better Broadway Musical? 890 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:44,760 Speaker 1: Because you saw Hamilton over the weekend on Disney Plus. 891 00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:50,440 Speaker 1: I did, and I absolutely freaking loved it. It's the 892 00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:55,960 Speaker 1: best musical I've ever seen, so Hamilton, It's so good. 893 00:50:56,760 --> 00:51:00,400 Speaker 1: David Diggs, who played Thomas Jefferson, is one of my 894 00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:05,080 Speaker 1: favorite character. He plays both. He plays both. And it 895 00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:07,200 Speaker 1: was funny because when he came out as Jefferson, was like, 896 00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:10,800 Speaker 1: wait a second, yeah, and then and then I noticed 897 00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:14,920 Speaker 1: it with James Madison, he played um, he was playing 898 00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:18,799 Speaker 1: Hercules Mulligan right, yes, he was playing And I was like, 899 00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:21,600 Speaker 1: are they played dual characters here? And then I thought, wow, 900 00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:26,680 Speaker 1: how talented you have to be to play two diverse characters, 901 00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:30,960 Speaker 1: two completely different characters. But when David Days came out 902 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:33,799 Speaker 1: as Thomas Jefferson. I was like, that was I was 903 00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:37,600 Speaker 1: like standing at five. He was so so good as 904 00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:41,200 Speaker 1: Thomas Jefferson is phenomenal. It is. I was lucky enough 905 00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:43,440 Speaker 1: to see it on stage last year. I saw it 906 00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:45,879 Speaker 1: in Austin a traveling you know. It was really good. 907 00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:49,480 Speaker 1: It was really great. But I listened to a little 908 00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:51,960 Speaker 1: bit of it first, then saw it, then listened again, 909 00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:54,319 Speaker 1: and then I was totally hooked on the soundtrack. And 910 00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:55,919 Speaker 1: I think that's what happens to a lot of people. 911 00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:59,840 Speaker 1: The soundtrack is absolutely amazing. I think it's the you know, 912 00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:03,200 Speaker 1: I need more time to pass. I love Rent. I 913 00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:05,360 Speaker 1: don't like the story as much as I love the music, 914 00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:10,040 Speaker 1: you know, West Side Story. Yes, I'm in the minority 915 00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:14,120 Speaker 1: of heterosexual men who enjoy Broadway musicals. Okay, it happens. Uh, 916 00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:16,560 Speaker 1: you know, I like a lot of them, so U 917 00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:19,520 Speaker 1: this is Uh. It's cool to have Hamilton available to 918 00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:22,160 Speaker 1: it virtually everybody. You gotta pay for Disney Plus, but 919 00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:25,600 Speaker 1: it's not ridiculously expensive to get that. So that's that's 920 00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:28,719 Speaker 1: one plus about the plus. All right, A couple of 921 00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:32,600 Speaker 1: other things here, Um next week I'm previewing next week, 922 00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:35,920 Speaker 1: Who's Better I've got a you know, Johnny, the Patriots 923 00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:40,200 Speaker 1: have played in what in the Belichick era, what is it, 924 00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:45,160 Speaker 1: nine super Bowls? They've all been They've they've all been good. 925 00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:48,960 Speaker 1: They've all been good games. Think about it. I know 926 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:50,880 Speaker 1: they had the one, really low scoring one, but at 927 00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:55,080 Speaker 1: least it was close, you know. And I'm gonna say 928 00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:58,200 Speaker 1: that it's hard to pick up better super Bowl than 929 00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:01,840 Speaker 1: I don't know, like the second best one they've played 930 00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:03,600 Speaker 1: with played in. And I don't want to get too 931 00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:06,759 Speaker 1: patriot like on this show, but I was thinking about that, like, 932 00:53:06,840 --> 00:53:09,440 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, they really haven't played any stinkers, and 933 00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:11,319 Speaker 1: one of the worst ones was the one where they 934 00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:13,640 Speaker 1: beat the Eagles and it was a ten point lead 935 00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:15,919 Speaker 1: than the Eagles backdoored their way into a closer game. 936 00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:20,879 Speaker 1: But that's something we can discuss next week. Tomorrow we'll 937 00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:25,880 Speaker 1: continue with the Conversation Thursday, the General's back Texans All 938 00:53:25,920 --> 00:53:28,480 Speaker 1: Access at six o'clock for his regular segment.

This player 956 00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:34,319 Speaker 1: does this and that player does that, and I could 957 00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:36,480 Speaker 1: be persuaded either way. But when it comes to an 958 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:40,160 Speaker 1: MVP of MPG, Yeah, miles per gallant him made by 959 00:54:40,239 --> 00:54:43,560 Speaker 1: choice Chevron with tech Ron.
