00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 2: to get ready for it.

16
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:40,560
Speaker 1: How do you feeling.

17
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,200
Speaker 3: I'm feeling good, Johnny. I love the fact that everybody's playing.

18
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,279
Speaker 3: I think it's great and everybody available who has practiced

19
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,440
Speaker 3: this week, and I don't know how many plays to expect,

20
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 3: but I think it'll be a nice little chunk of action.

21
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 3: Everyone overanalyzed last week and I knew that was gonna happen.

22
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 3: Everybody knew that was gonna happen. You're gonna overanalyze whatever

23
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 3: you see. It reminded me of when DeMar Hamlin went down.

24
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 3: People actually thought, wait, were the Bengals leading when that happened, Yes,

25
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 3: in the first quarter, right, people thought, well, the Bengals

26
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,680
Speaker 3: were leading, so they probably would have won the game.

27
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:15,320
Speaker 3: What you're gonna come up with the conclusion of the

28
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 3: winner of that night's action after a quarter, after less

29
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,040
Speaker 3: than a quarter, and it was a close game as

30
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 3: it was. It wasn't like they put three touchdowns on

31
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 3: the board and were up twenty one nothing. Even if

32
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 3: they had done that, I would say, hey, with health,

33
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 3: with Hamler not going down, the Bills might have been

34
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 3: able to catch up. Just like you can't draw conclusions

35
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 3: about the future of a player through four throws or

36
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 3: Bryce Young through what he went through last week. Oh

37
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 3: he got hit hard. That means he's gonna get hit hard.

38
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 3: He's definitely gonna get hurt.

39
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 1: It's over.

40
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 3: Career over, sorry, Anthony Richardson, Look what a bad pick.

41
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 3: No career, it's over. He's a bust. One preseason game.

42
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 3: I looked up Peyton Manning's regular season debut just out

43
00:01:55,840 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 3: of curiosity. I'm curious about all these high drafted quarterbacks

44
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 3: and what they did in their first action, whether it

45
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 3: be preseason a regular season. I would have looked up preseason,

46
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 3: but on the NFLGSIS site, they didn't have the preseason

47
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 3: stats for ninety eight. That was his rookie year, right,

48
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,359
Speaker 3: they didn't have it for whatever reason. I didn't want

49
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 3: to go that deep of a dive into it. But

50
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 3: regular season action they opened with the Dolphins. He threw

51
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 3: three picks. He threw a lot of picks that year,

52
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,359
Speaker 3: and clearly Manning was a bust. So that's my point.

53
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,640
Speaker 3: We're gonna overanalyze that. We're gonna overanalyze this, but it's

54
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 3: still gonna be fun to see. It's what we've got.

55
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 3: I want to see the team be competitive, execute Let's rock.

56
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 2: We've got a lot of people joining us on the

57
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 2: show today. It's a pregame edition of Texans All Access

58
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 2: and that means a lot. We got to hear our

59
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 2: pregame interview with Drew Doherty and that's what Jonathan Gernard,

60
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 2: we're here for Corey Lyttleton, We're here from Steve Goldstein

61
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 2: a little bit later. We got to kick off the

62
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 2: show on a Friday, a game day eve usually.

63
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: Playing Sunday, but still we play this on Friday.

64
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 2: Mark Vannimiers sits now with the head coach of your

65
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,399
Speaker 2: Houston Texans, ready for his first game as head coach

66
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 2: at Energy Stadium, Tomika Ryant, coach.

67
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 3: The game is upon us. You have the joint practices

68
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,080
Speaker 3: with the Dolphins, and I liken it to an NBA

69
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 3: series sort of. You're familiar with them very what's going

70
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,239
Speaker 3: to be like playing against them after facing them this week?

71
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 4: It's going to be an exciting opportunity for our guys.

72
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 4: I feel like going against these guys for two days

73
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 4: in practice, our guys should be comfortable with the schemes

74
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 4: that they're going against. They should know the players they're

75
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 4: going against, and our guys should be able to play

76
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 4: a little bit faster because they know and they've seen

77
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 4: everything that the Dolphins have in a couple of days

78
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 4: of practice.

79
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 3: Whether it's a preseason game or a joint practice. When

80
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 3: the team makes a mistake, you don't like it, but

81
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 3: you have those teaching moments right so you can display

82
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 3: them later in the meetings.

83
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, mistakes are great.

84
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 4: I love them in practice right, only in practice only

85
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 4: because they are great teaching moments. There's a lot for

86
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 4: us to learn from. Every rep is not going to

87
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 4: be perfect. But if we can learn from our mistake

88
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 4: and bank that away and learn from it and grow

89
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 4: and continue to grow, I think that's how you become

90
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 4: a better player, as how you become a better team.

91
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 3: What's it going to be like for CJ in round two? Here,

92
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 3: preseason game two, with the line in front of him,

93
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 3: the personnel you'll have out there.

94
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 4: Expect to CJ. Expect to see CJ, you know, see

95
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 4: a lot more accent. Expect our first team offensive line

96
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 4: to be there. Expect all our guys to be out there.

97
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 4: Expect them to be a little bit more comfortable, right,

98
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 4: playing longer, right to just let him get a good

99
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,160
Speaker 4: feel for the game, let the game come to him,

100
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:25,359
Speaker 4: and just want to see him go out and have

101
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 4: a really clean Chris operation.

102
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 1: All right?

103
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 3: What about the defense facing Tua and all the weapons

104
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 3: they have. This is valuable experience.

105
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 5: It's very valuable.

106
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 4: I mean their offense, they operate at a different tempo,

107
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 4: very fast at the skill position too. As he goes

108
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 4: through his read that progressions, everything is just seems like

109
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 4: it's sped up a tick.

110
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:46,159
Speaker 1: It's very fast.

111
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 4: So It's been great for our guys because we have

112
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 4: to pick up that sense of urgency of where we

113
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 4: need to be and our zone drops, our eyes and

114
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 4: man covering. Everything needs to pick up a tick and

115
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 4: we've learned that lesson this week and I'm happy that

116
00:04:58,400 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 4: we were able to get that done.

117
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: In the joint practice sessions.

118
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 3: With special teams in week one, no teams called for

119
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,840
Speaker 3: the fair catch on the kickoff because they want to

120
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 3: get to work in. Is that what you're thinking? How

121
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 3: do you feel about it?

122
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:09,480
Speaker 6: Right?

123
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: For sure?

124
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 4: As special teams, we want to see, all right, you

125
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 4: want to see kick returners operate. You want to see

126
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 4: who can block on that front line, Like how can

127
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 4: guys operate and use their techniques so can we get

128
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 4: past the twenty five and return it so you won't

129
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,840
Speaker 4: see any fair catch that I think throughout the preseason,

130
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 4: everybody is a chance, has a chance to evaluate kick returners,

131
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 4: evaluate guys that are depth players on your roster to

132
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 4: see how can they perform it during the special teams All.

133
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 3: Right, here we are all layers of the depth chart playing.

134
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 3: But how important is winning a preseason game?

135
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 4: You know, winning the preseason? And I I tell our

136
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 4: guys winning, it doesn't count, but it matters for me.

137
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 4: You still want to establish a mindset and you want

138
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 4: to establish this. Hey, this is how it feels when

139
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 4: you win, right, And that's so we have to establish

140
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 4: as a winning tradition. What does it feel like? This

141
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 4: is how you win. This is how you prepare to win.

142
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 4: So not important in the preseason because it doesn't count,

143
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 4: but it definitely matters to me.

144
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 3: Coach, thanks a lot, good luck, Mark.

145
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 2: There's something about hearing you meet us with the Miko

146
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 2: that just always makes me feel good.

147
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 1: It just makes me feel good.

148
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 2: I can't put my finger on it, but it just

149
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,719
Speaker 2: makes me feel good. There's always a I saw coaching

150
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 2: the cafeteria and I say, coaches, hey, Johnny's smiles face.

151
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 2: You just you feel good being around Demko and hopefully

152
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 2: the team feels good tomorrow and plays well against the Dolphins.

153
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's something about him where he's one of the

154
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 3: guys almost yet still somehow enough of a disciplinarian. Yeah,

155
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 3: because I know some things that he was talking to

156
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 3: the defense about this week and I thought interesting. And

157
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 3: he wants a very high level, high caliber of play

158
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 3: and demands it. I mean everybody wants it, but he

159
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,159
Speaker 3: demands it from his players. So it's gonna be really

160
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 3: interesting to see how he handles things and the results

161
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 3: of those things as they get into adversity here, because

162
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 3: there's gonna be adversity. It's the NFL. I don't care

163
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 3: who you are, the Chiefs are going to experience adversity.

164
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 3: So you're gonna see it, and then you're gonna see

165
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 3: how he handles it and the results of whatever he

166
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 3: did to whatever prescription he had to remedy that. And

167
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 3: I can't wait for all of it, Johnny, and tomorrow's

168
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 3: our next little chapter here as they take out the Dolphins.

169
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 1: At home playing the Dolphins.

170
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 2: We got a chance to see them twice in joint practices,

171
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 2: and I don't know you mentioned how much everybody plays,

172
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 2: but I think we will see everybody.

173
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: Think it's gonna be good.

174
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 2: Who are kind of the players or just units maybe

175
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 2: that you're most intrigued by seeing on Saturday. And I

176
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 2: know it's kind of hard for us in some sense

177
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 2: because we're talking through the action. A little bit easier

178
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 2: for me because obviously I don't talk as much you guys,

179
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 2: But is there anybody that you're kind of focused on

180
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 2: when the game's over and you will go back and

181
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 2: watch it.

182
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 1: Anybody you're really truly focused.

183
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 2: On that, you're curious about how that player or group

184
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 2: unit performed.

185
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 3: Well, I'll give you one. Because everyone's excited to see

186
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 3: Tank and you want to see Dalton Schultz because he

187
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 3: makes great catches. He's a really great target, quarterback's best

188
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 3: friend kind of player. But I want to see Robert Woods.

189
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 3: I want to see Robert out there Bobby Trees with CJ.

190
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 3: Stroud and see how the professional veteran handles things and

191
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 3: what kind of performance he can have. In performance, I

192
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 3: mean maybe a catch or two, right, but can he

193
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 3: extend to drive? Can you make a big play? I

194
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 3: want to see how that works. Also, throw to the backs,

195
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 3: maybe a little bit for Stroud. Get a couple of

196
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 3: running back passes going. I don't know how long Damian

197
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 3: Pearce is going to be in there, but if it's

198
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 3: Singletary or maybe even Boone with the ones, I don't know,

199
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,559
Speaker 3: in a third down situation, see how that goes. So

200
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 3: that's on the offensive side. On the defensive side, look,

201
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 3: we all want to see will Anderson do something. I mean,

202
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 3: that's a given. That's like, I want to see the

203
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 3: sun come up tomorrow. I want to see Will Anderson

204
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 3: do something thrilling, amazing, whatever. But let's see how the

205
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 3: layers of the depth chart perform. And Blake cash Man

206
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 3: did not practice this week, so I doubt he's gonna

207
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 3: play right in this one. Let's continue to watch that

208
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 3: linebacking career. You asked for a position group, that's the

209
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 3: position group I'm focused on there. But how about this

210
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 3: Jimmy Ward. Jimmy Ward out there with Petree, Let's make

211
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,560
Speaker 3: some noise, Let's make some music together. Because those two

212
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 3: guys had nice practices in the joint sessions with the Dolphins.

213
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 3: Let's see them have a nice game.

214
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 1: And they won't have to pull up either.

215
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 2: There were a few times they had to pull up

216
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 2: and not take some legal shots that they could have

217
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,439
Speaker 2: taken against Dolphins, and now they don't have to do

218
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 2: it's a game situation. They'll still be looking to protect everybody.

219
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 2: It's preseason and they understand that. But there's a physical

220
00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 2: presence with those two. It's safety offensively for me. I

221
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 2: don't know how much he'll play because you just got

222
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 2: back this week, so I'm not totally sure how much

223
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 2: is gonna play, but I want to see Tea Quatoriano

224
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 2: do something, whether it's blocking at the line of scrimmage,

225
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 2: whether it's making a catchdown the seam or in the

226
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 2: red zone. I want to see him do something. So

227
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Teaching Quatoriano at tight end will be

228
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 2: definitely one that I'm watching, and then the guy we're

229
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,880
Speaker 2: gonna hear from later in the show. I'm really excited

230
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 2: about the way he played in practice and these two

231
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 2: joint practices.

232
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 1: I thought John Grenard was fantastic.

233
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 2: I thought the Dolphins had all kinds of trouble with John,

234
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 2: and a lot of it A lot of it was

235
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 2: that he You know, everybody in the league has a

236
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 2: pet move. They have one move that they go to. Okay,

237
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 2: I do this move. I know what Jacob Martin's is.

238
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 2: We talk about it all the time. Everybody's got a

239
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 2: pet move that they go to. I feel like John's

240
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 2: got a couple that he can go to, a couple

241
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 2: of three. I saw three or four different moves in

242
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 2: one on ones and I love seeing that and I

243
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 2: love seeing him try different things. But he was really

244
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 2: difficult for the Dolphins to block.

245
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 3: All right, Can I give you a couple of things

246
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 3: from the production meeting with him? Okay, long arm you

247
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 3: talked about that, my long arm move. Yeah, yeah, he's.

248
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,679
Speaker 2: Got gotch For those that don't know, the long arm

249
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 2: move essentially is you drive your inside arm as hard

250
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 2: as you possibly can, extend it as long as you

251
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 2: possibly can into the defender, and that lengthens you as

252
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,840
Speaker 2: long as a blocker. It lengthens you and keeps the

253
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 2: blocker from getting hands on you. So it's kind of

254
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 2: like a one arm bowl rush, right in some sense.

255
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 3: Well, it's what you do the vander kid when you're

256
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,679
Speaker 3: just trying to hold his head and keep him from

257
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 3: swinging at you.

258
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: That's a good one, very good.

259
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 3: Plus. He also pointed this out. He said, I'm on

260
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 3: my fifth head coach if you include Romeo, it's his

261
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 3: fifth head coach. And I thought, oh my gosh, what

262
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 3: a way to begin your career.

263
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 2: Think about it. Beyond that, mark fifth head coach? How

264
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 2: many dcs has he had? Oh god, how many defensive

265
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,959
Speaker 2: line coaches has he had? Every single year it's been

266
00:11:58,000 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 2: someone different. Yeah, I mean he had love you as

267
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 2: a if it's a coordinator for twenty one to twenty two.

268
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 3: But I mean, but John came in last year, right, John.

269
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 1: Came in last year, So that's been good.

270
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 2: But you know before that, you know, Anthony, we were,

271
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 2: I mean I was talking to John in the off season,

272
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,199
Speaker 2: right before he left for the offseason.

273
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: So this was back in I don't know.

274
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 2: February or January ish, right after the season, and this

275
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,079
Speaker 2: was before Demiko was hired.

276
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 1: And he said he went through all that with me.

277
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 2: He goes, John, I just want normal COVID season, banged

278
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 2: up in a couple of those years.

279
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 1: Coaching changes every year, coaching change five head coach.

280
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 2: I mean, let's have some stability, Yeah, stay healthy, have

281
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 2: some stability and go out. And I think if he

282
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 2: has all that, I think there's an opportunity for him

283
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 2: to do some good things. And what we've seen in practice,

284
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 2: they've been really really good things. And a guy that

285
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 2: understands d line play better than anybody is our good

286
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 2: friend Indy Clue. He'll be on the call with Kevin

287
00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 2: Coogler and our guy Drew Doherty on Saturday after noon.

288
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 2: There'll be a national broadcast, so you'll catch Indi Klue

289
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 2: there with a chance to catch up with him about

290
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,319
Speaker 2: a number of things, including this one against.

291
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,760
Speaker 3: An offense and dy Kalude joining us on Texans Radio

292
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 3: Now and d fired up for preseason TV broadcast number two.

293
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,839
Speaker 7: I am fired up. I think I'm just more fired

294
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 7: up to see some more football. Football season is finally here.

295
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, so tell me CJ. Stroud's gonna play again. They're

296
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 3: not gonna arrest starters, They're gonna play everybody. Demika Ryan says,

297
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 3: I'm playing everybody. Your thoughts on that you've been in

298
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 3: these situations and what about their situation?

299
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,439
Speaker 7: That's huge, Mark, because nowadays, and you know, I don't

300
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:38,960
Speaker 7: want to sound like the old man in the room,

301
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,920
Speaker 7: but we're so used to seeing starters and role players

302
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 7: not played, the guys who know that they're making the team.

303
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 7: So for Demico to be so adamant during the production meetings,

304
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 7: like everyone's playing, and then they try to get specific,

305
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 7: he said, no, if they're healthy, they're playing. That's that's

306
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 7: gonna be pretty interesting to watch the first team offensive

307
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 7: line blocking for CJ.

308
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 1: Stroud and it gets his defensive front.

309
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 2: And by the way, d you are the youngest in

310
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,079
Speaker 2: this room, so you're okay, Mark, the oldest, don't worry

311
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 2: about that. You're good And yeah, I spent a lot

312
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 2: of time watching this Dolphins defensive front, and I was

313
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:16,199
Speaker 2: struck by the length and size. They're all six five

314
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 2: six giving the interior guys, I mean, I think rake one.

315
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 1: Six eight, but they play at three four front. I

316
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: mean they're they're an odd front.

317
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 2: So having faced all camp, you're facing this four man

318
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 2: surface and all of a sudden you face this odd

319
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 2: front and then you got these different kind of shaped

320
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 2: line in your go against. How difficult does that become

321
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 2: for the Texans offensive line to adapt to that? I

322
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 2: know they've seen it for two days, but they haven't

323
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 2: seen an all training camp and now they got a

324
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 2: fire in a game against it.

325
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 1: How do you how do you kind of go about

326
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 1: doing that? How tough is that?

327
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 7: You know, that's a great point you bring that up,

328
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 7: because they are different type of rushers. You know, when

329
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 7: you look at Will Anderson, Jonathan Grenard, Jacob Martin, those

330
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 7: are like thin, fast, twitchy guys. And I'm not saying

331
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 7: Chubb and the rest of the front four for the

332
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 7: Miami Dolphins aren't fast or quick, but it's more of

333
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 7: those big, strong, technique driven type of rushers, So I'm

334
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 7: sure it takes probably about a practice or even a

335
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 7: couple of series to get used to knowing that, Okay,

336
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 7: this is a different type of Russier that I'm going again.

337
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 1: All Right.

338
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 3: I don't want to ask you to exhaust all your

339
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 3: TV broadcast material here, but I will so Tank Dell.

340
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 3: You had a nice little visit with Tank Dell. We

341
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,600
Speaker 3: all saw what he did in the game against New England.

342
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 3: He'll play again against Miami. We've seen practice all week.

343
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 3: What were your impressions of spending some time with Tank Dell.

344
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 7: Off the field? Just a guy that really appreciates his

345
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 7: position in life right now. And I really appreciated that

346
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 7: coming from a rookie, you know. It was just a

347
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 7: guy that truly understood Man. I played at U of Ah.

348
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 7: Now I'm staying in town playing for a Houston Texan

349
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 7: team that's evolving. You could tell that he really knew

350
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 7: what that meant. And it was refreshing to see and

351
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 7: to hear that, because when I see him on the field,

352
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 7: I'm like, oh, man, that's a great player. I wonder

353
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 7: if he truly understands this opportunity in front of him.

354
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,040
Speaker 7: And then you hear him actually talk about it. I

355
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 7: guess what jersey I'll be buying tomorrow. You know what,

356
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 7: once it out, you know my fat but I probably

357
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 7: can't put on a tank Dell jersey. That's for the

358
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 7: small that's for you, Mark, that's up for you to

359
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 7: wear the slim guys. But now all jokes aside, it

360
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 7: was just refreshing to see and hear such a young

361
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 7: guy truly appreciate what he's going.

362
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:18,840
Speaker 1: Through and he going through.

363
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 2: Saturday night and with all the starters playing, we had

364
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 2: two practices against the Dolphins defense.

365
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 1: What would you like to see from CJ. Stroud on

366
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 1: Saturday night?

367
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 7: That's a good question because I don't know what they're

368
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 7: gonna throw at him. So what I would like to

369
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 7: hear after the game is that they opened up the

370
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 7: playbook and he was able to run the offense.

371
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know what that looks like.

372
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 7: But if we hear from Slowik that, you know what,

373
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 7: we really challenged him mentally and he answered the call.

374
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 7: Then obviously this was more about the guys protecting him.

375
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 7: But I want to see him stand upright, you know,

376
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 7: I want to see him actually get time in the

377
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 7: pocket to make the plays.

378
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 3: Well, you were asking him in the production meeting about

379
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 3: taking snaps from center as opposed to the shotgun, and

380
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,199
Speaker 3: it was interesting what he had to say about that.

381
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:05,200
Speaker 3: It's a big adjustment.

382
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 7: I like hearing quarterbacks talk about their craft. That's why

383
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 7: I threw that question out there, and it was interesting.

384
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 7: You know, he talks about when he's in the shotgun

385
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 7: the peripheral, he has a chance to see east and

386
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 7: west and see the entire field. But it wasn't a

387
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 7: disadvantage being under the center because he said he could

388
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 7: focus on one half of the field. So just saying

389
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 7: and hearing him talk about the two different mindsets pre

390
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 7: snap just from being under center versus being a shotgun

391
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 7: was that was interesting to here.

392
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 2: Facing an offense like the Dolphins have a lot of movement,

393
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 2: a lot of misdirection, I mean a lot of stuff

394
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 2: that they ran this week, Indy from a defensive standpoint,

395
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,639
Speaker 2: just overall in general, when you're facing a def an

396
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 2: offense like that where they're fake boot you know, fake

397
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,160
Speaker 2: toss booting the other way or fake in the jet

398
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:51,920
Speaker 2: sweep and go the other way, what do you want

399
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 2: to see from the defensive side of the ball and

400
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,679
Speaker 2: imagine mental errors keep him to a minimum.

401
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 1: But what do you want to see from the defensive

402
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: side of the ball.

403
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,440
Speaker 7: Not to think to still go off field. And it's

404
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 7: funny when you talk about that offense. It reminds me

405
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,160
Speaker 7: when we used to play Denver and they went side

406
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,359
Speaker 7: to side. They had the zone blocking scheme and it

407
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,880
Speaker 7: took your aggression away because you want to get upfield.

408
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 7: But when you're getting upfield, as you know, you still

409
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 7: have gap responsibility. So when those gaps are moving east

410
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 7: and west, you start have to think. Then you have

411
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,919
Speaker 7: to react. But you're not effective when you're doing that.

412
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,919
Speaker 7: So I would love to see Jonathan Grenard, will and

413
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 7: Anderson those guys say, you know what, if that's what

414
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 7: you're gonna do, that's cute, but I'm still going to

415
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 7: change the line of scrimmage.

416
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,879
Speaker 3: And d Kalud joining us and D the Texans organization

417
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:35,119
Speaker 3: as somebody who played here and you're involved with it

418
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 3: now with broadcasting whatever, and you've done talk radio for years,

419
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 3: what do you make of where the organization is going?

420
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 3: With the h Town made stuff, the leaning into the

421
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 3: Houston presence here being from h Town, what do you

422
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:48,159
Speaker 3: make of all of that?

423
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 7: You know what is cool seeing that side of it evolved.

424
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 7: It's cool to seeing that side of it accept, appreciate,

425
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:01,119
Speaker 7: and embrace what's going on culturally with a younger generation.

426
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,400
Speaker 7: It kind of reminds me of ll cool J. And

427
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 7: what I mean by that is this was a guy

428
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,919
Speaker 7: that was famous as a rapper back in the early nineties,

429
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,400
Speaker 7: but he's still relevant because he was able to evolve

430
00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 7: with everything that's going on and then he started acting.

431
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 7: So even with the Texans, where in two thousand and

432
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 7: two being the first year, everybody was excited, but now

433
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:25,199
Speaker 7: they're evolving. They're embracing the local rappers, the local musicians,

434
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 7: the local restaurants. It's just kind of cool seeing how

435
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 7: they're not just saying, oh, we've been doing it like

436
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 7: this for twenty years and we're gonna stay that way.

437
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 7: To see how they're embracing everything. And I'm telling you,

438
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 7: I have young kids. I have an eighteen year old,

439
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,359
Speaker 7: eighteen year old, fifteen year old. They notice it too,

440
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,119
Speaker 7: and they're like, oh, man, that you gear from the

441
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 7: Texans is cool, so good good job. Keep it up

442
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 7: Texans and.

443
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:49,879
Speaker 2: D last week when you were doing a game, I

444
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,880
Speaker 2: find myself doing this I try not to because I've

445
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 2: seen every single practice, every single rep of oirs. Joe's

446
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 2: want to see kind of something new. So when you're

447
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 2: watching keyon White of the Patriots, you kind of find

448
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:04,119
Speaker 2: yourself watching the other side looking at some guys in particular,

449
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 2: like I found myself watching Tyrek this week, just like

450
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 2: enamored watching watching Tyreek Hill.

451
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: But you kind of fall into that.

452
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 2: As you're watching a game, Cup point out, hey man,

453
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,639
Speaker 2: that guy's really good on the Dolphins side, And do

454
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,880
Speaker 2: you feel bad talking about how good they actually are?

455
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 7: You know what? I want to do that, But Vandermir

456
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,439
Speaker 7: told me he's a body slam me. He said, you

457
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:28,040
Speaker 7: better not talk about the opponent, So just stick to

458
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,400
Speaker 7: the text. And so anytime I want to say, oh

459
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,439
Speaker 7: that was great, I just think of Vandermirs body slaming me.

460
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:35,160
Speaker 1: I said, okay, let me just focus on the tax

461
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 1: I'm deleting. I'm deleting.

462
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 2: My hair is a hit right now about Robert Hunt

463
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 2: as we speak, Oh my gosh.

464
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 3: Uh and the this stage of camp, how are their

465
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 3: bodies feeling? They all were happy to have joint practices

466
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,880
Speaker 3: this past week because it was hitting somebody else. We've

467
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 3: been over that. But how are the bodies feeling at

468
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 3: this stage of camp because you're what three weeks in

469
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,400
Speaker 3: three and a half, yeah, and they talk about getting

470
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 3: the callouses with the pads on or whatever terminology you

471
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:06,679
Speaker 3: want to use. How do they feel?

472
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 7: You know, you're in that survival mode even though you're

473
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,639
Speaker 7: still trying to get better. But and again, I don't

474
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,639
Speaker 7: want to be this guy. It's not the same. You

475
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 7: can't training camp is not the same. Facts fact, So

476
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:29,120
Speaker 7: if you were to ask me that question ten fifteen

477
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,479
Speaker 7: years ago, I would say, you're just happy to get

478
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 7: out of bed. But now, and let me admit this,

479
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 7: they're smarter now.

480
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 8: You know.

481
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:40,400
Speaker 7: The approach is smarter, the approach is more scientific. They

482
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:44,360
Speaker 7: understand like you just can't do that to these athletes' bodies.

483
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 7: But there were times where you would lay in bed

484
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,399
Speaker 7: in Lehigh University, if you're in training camp with the

485
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 7: philade w egos, and I remember thinking I can't even move,

486
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:56,919
Speaker 7: like how much? Like I'm not even trying to be

487
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 7: funny like I was. Actually I was laying in bed

488
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 7: like I don't know what I'm gonna do, Like I

489
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 7: can't move. My alarm's about to go off in ten

490
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 7: minutes and I'm supposed to go through a two hour

491
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,199
Speaker 7: padded practice And I don't know if they feel that

492
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 7: way now. It still hurts and they're still sore. You know.

493
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 7: We talked to the players and they're talking about the

494
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 7: cold top treatment, how they need it. But yeah, I

495
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 7: don't think it's quite as intense as early you know,

496
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:21,160
Speaker 7: nineties and early two.

497
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 3: How could that be good for you if you felt

498
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 3: like that other people felt like that? How does that

499
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 3: strong mentally strong? I mean, there are other ways to

500
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 3: build mental strength.

501
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,360
Speaker 7: But it's funny you say that, like you think you're

502
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,119
Speaker 7: the only one going through it at the time. It's

503
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 7: kind of like the whole mental health like you know,

504
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 7: other people are experiencing. I remember thinking like something's wrong

505
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,719
Speaker 7: with me, like maybe this isn't for me. Then it

506
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 7: wasn't until I retired and Bobby Taylor and I were

507
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 7: just talking and he was all, you.

508
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 1: Felt that way.

509
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,120
Speaker 7: I felt that way also, and I was like, wow,

510
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:50,639
Speaker 7: I wish I would have known that as a player.

511
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 3: That was Andy Reid, right, that was oh yes, So

512
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 3: first seven practices. I got to imagine he's I got

513
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 3: to think he's changed as a head coach. He has

514
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 3: to have the rules forced that, right.

515
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 7: The rules force it. He's changed, but he's still my

516
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,959
Speaker 7: guys are going to play. He has the best player

517
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 7: in football in Patrick Mahomes. Can I say that, are

518
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,879
Speaker 7: you about to beat me up? Okay? And Patrick Mahomes

519
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:16,679
Speaker 7: are and he plays in preseason games. So you know,

520
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 7: Andy Reid has changed where he's had to, but he

521
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 7: still has that same mindset.

522
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 2: Two hours of practice and a half hour meeting or

523
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 2: two hour meeting and half our practice?

524
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 1: What did you take meetings? I'll be people don't realize this.

525
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,159
Speaker 1: I remember when I want that's a strong question. I

526
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:33,959
Speaker 1: was playing college.

527
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 2: I remember we would have these hour meetings before our

528
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 2: two days, and I thought the meetings were just hell,

529
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 2: hell too long, like too long, like we just get

530
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 2: us on a So what would you rather do two

531
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 2: ours practice, half our meeting or half our practice to

532
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 2: our meeting?

533
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:53,160
Speaker 7: As a player, Yeah, see here, that's a great question

534
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:54,920
Speaker 7: because now it's going to be and I know you

535
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,359
Speaker 7: probably just answer the damn question, but it's going to

536
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,880
Speaker 7: be as a young player versus as a.

537
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 1: You know, once you know what you're doing, you're gonna

538
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:02,639
Speaker 1: be back.

539
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,199
Speaker 7: There there exactly because once you know, you're like, you know,

540
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,400
Speaker 7: I'd rather just go practice and have thirty minute meetings,

541
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 7: But early on, you know you want to learn as

542
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 7: much as you can. So I would say, as an

543
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 7: experienced vet who knows his playbook, I'd rather be out

544
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 7: there for two hours and in the meetings for thirty minutes.

545
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,680
Speaker 7: But it's so hard adapting from college to the NFL

546
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 7: as far as learning that playbook. Yeah, and there are

547
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,879
Speaker 7: and again times where you're you're rushing through the meeting

548
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 7: like I'm not quite sure what I'm doing, but I'm

549
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 7: just go out there. Where you would rather have the

550
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 7: two hours of meetings and thirty minutes, just go with it,

551
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,159
Speaker 7: Just go That's a great question. I've never thought of that.

552
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 1: This week against Miami, and you know there's Russian quarterbacks.

553
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 2: I don't know how many I know you play against Vick,

554
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 2: but I can't think I can't think of many other

555
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,399
Speaker 2: left handed quarterbacks you ever played against.

556
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,639
Speaker 1: Did that matter as a defensive line to that kind

557
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: of change your approach?

558
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,199
Speaker 2: In fact, you're facing a lefty like Tua as opposed

559
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 2: to facing everybody else who's right handed.

560
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,639
Speaker 7: This is just me, and maybe this is why I

561
00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 7: didn't have one hundred sacks and only thirty somethings. As

562
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 7: far as you know, left hand dominant right hand. I

563
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 7: never never brother didn't. I didn't even know. I didn't

564
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 7: realize soon now and I've played against him five times,

565
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 7: five times.

566
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 5: In my career.

567
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 3: Did that was the problem?

568
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,840
Speaker 7: The problem? He was so fast and that again, so

569
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,400
Speaker 7: many other things to think about with big I didn't realize.

570
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 7: I wondered, I wonder if that affects the DBS and

571
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 7: the people in coverage more.

572
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm just yeah, but it all comes out, and

573
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 2: you know how it spins, all that kind of I

574
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,919
Speaker 2: never really gave it much thought until watching Tua for

575
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 2: some reason in last year when we were in Miami

576
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 2: last year, and I was like, it just it just

577
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:38,679
Speaker 2: looked different.

578
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 5: And I don't know why.

579
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,640
Speaker 1: I don't know what it was. It just looked different.

580
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 3: So that slant that Petrie picked off, who has got

581
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 3: a square up? And and I guess, to that side,

582
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,959
Speaker 3: it's an easier read. Not that it was easy, but

583
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 3: maybe it had easy.

584
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 2: He took it for granted because he looked he went

585
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 2: to the right side first, and he looked at the

586
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 2: right side.

587
00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:58,439
Speaker 1: He's like, oh, I look over.

588
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 2: Here, they'll they'll all go this way, and he didn't

589
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 2: even look back, so he just got lazy and Peter

590
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:03,600
Speaker 2: picked him off.

591
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 7: I wonder if if the general manager, head coach of

592
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:12,120
Speaker 7: their cognizant of okay, we because typically the left tackle

593
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,159
Speaker 7: is a better player than the right tackle. So I

594
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,359
Speaker 7: wonder if they're saying, you know what, we need to

595
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,159
Speaker 7: have just as dominant of a right tackle if we

596
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 7: have a left handicle.

597
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,719
Speaker 1: What was interesting about Titus Titus in college?

598
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 2: I remember the first game of the year, second game

599
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,360
Speaker 2: of the year that played Auburn, and I'm watching him,

600
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:26,919
Speaker 2: I'm studying.

601
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, he's playing right tackle, and I'm like, man,

602
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 1: I thought he played left. I was so confused. I

603
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:32,680
Speaker 1: was like, what the heck?

604
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:34,680
Speaker 2: And then I watched him later in the year was like, oh, okay,

605
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 2: there is over left tackle, and I realized, oh, they

606
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 2: were swapping him based on the quarterback because the quarterback

607
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 2: earlier in the year was the left.

608
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:42,400
Speaker 1: He gets hurt.

609
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 2: They moved him back over their side because they think

610
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 2: I was the right and so he was actually playing both.

611
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 3: That year and he thanks a lot for joining us.

612
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:49,159
Speaker 3: Have a great broadcast.

613
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:50,400

Speaker 5: Going, Vandy? It is great to see you.

635
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 8: I love that I walk into this beautiful facility and

636
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,400
Speaker 8: the first thing I hear is a fan yel rock

637
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 8: and roll and you give the waves. So it's awesome

638
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 8: to see you. And great to be here in Houston.

639
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 3: So setting the scene here back in the day, you

640
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,720
Speaker 3: Joe Rose and DFO, We're doing the morning show and

641
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:03,400
Speaker 3: I would fill in every once in a while when

642
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 3: one of you went on vacation, and that was so

643
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 3: much fun to be a part of that. That was

644
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,239
Speaker 3: an iconic lineup. I know, you guys have gotten your

645
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,879
Speaker 3: separate ways in many different ways, but that was an

646
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 3: amazing time in South Florida sports history.

647
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 8: It was great, as you know. You know, at that time,

648
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 8: a lot of the teams were pretty new, you know,

649
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 8: the Panthers and the Marlins were kind of new teams,

650
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,719
Speaker 8: and things were really just getting going in South Florida.

651
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 8: It was such a long time ago. And now, you know,

652
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 8: look where we are in South Florida sports. You know,

653
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 8: MESSI has shown up so and you know, the entire

654
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 8: media business has h has really exploded in so many

655
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 8: different ways. So those were definitely fun days in the morning.

656
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 5: There was no.

657
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 8: Social media then, yep, like you had to do the

658
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 8: homework in order to do a morning show. You could

659
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 8: just walk in and turn your phone on and everything

660
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 8: would be right. There was a it was a completely different.

661
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 3: Time, completely different Steve Goldstein play by play for Miami

662
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 3: Dolphins preseason games, and you do the Florida Panthers, so

663
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 3: you're a bit well.

664
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 8: Panthers made that run of the Stanley Cup Final, so

665
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 8: there was very little time between hockey and football. Training

666
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 8: camp this year is a few weeks in July, and

667
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 8: that was it.

668
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 3: All right, So you were a talk radio staple for

669
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 3: a long time. Then you went into the play by playfield.

670
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 3: I know you did some play by play at that time,

671
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 3: but set that up for me. How'd you get into

672
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 3: all of that to the level of being the Panthers

673
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 3: announcer and everything else.

674
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 8: Yeah, great question. You know, it's the old story in broadcast,

675
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 8: and this is good for everybody in any line of work.

676
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 8: Anybody listening. The guy that was doing Panther radio back

677
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 8: in the late nineties missed a plane.

678
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 5: I got a call at four o'clock. The Panthers were

679
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 5: hosting Wayne Gretzky and the Rangers. I grew up in

680
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 5: New York.

681
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 8: Arranger fan. Get a call at four thirty. Can you

682
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 8: do the game tonight? Chris Moore, who was the play

683
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:50,240
Speaker 8: by play guy, was stuck in New Jersey.

684
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 5: He missed his plane.

685
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,920
Speaker 8: I literally said, and it's a little corny bandy. I said,

686
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 8: not only can I do it, I've been waiting my

687
00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 8: whole life to do this. Whoa and I filled in

688
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 8: the first two periods. Everybody realized, hey, this guy's pretty good.

689
00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 8: It took many years, but later on, about seven years later,

690
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 8: when the job opened up, the Panthers offered me the job.

691
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 8: They said, hey, you want to leave the morning radio

692
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 8: to do the full time play by play. I was

693
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 8: the pregame and postgame host on radio, and I said,

694
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 8: uh yeah. And then a couple of years later, in

695
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 8: the mid two thousands, they moved me to TV and

696
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 8: sixteen years on TV doing the Panthers.

697
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,720
Speaker 3: Wow, what's the landscape now, Steve in South Florida? When

698
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 3: you look at you mentioned MESSI coming in, which is

699
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 3: absolutely huge. The Dolphins are on the rise again. Well,

700
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 3: the Miami Heat had their run, but they're still very good.

701
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 3: And you know, you go to the conference finals finals.

702
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 3: I mean, this is a terrific organization. And you have

703
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 3: the Marlins doing pretty well. So what is it like

704
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 3: down there?

705
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 8: It's incredible, I mean, you know, and you still have

706
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 8: all the college football teams are you know, on and

707
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 8: off Hurricanes haven't been great. Gators haven't been great lately,

708
00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 8: but you know, there's as many Gator fans in South

709
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 8: Florida as there are Hurricanes fans because everybody went to UF.

710
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 5: It's a great sports.

711
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:04,080
Speaker 8: Market now and I really think, you know what, the heat.

712
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,320
Speaker 8: The heat cultivated a lot of fans in those years.

713
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 8: Once Dwayne Wade came and they had Shack, they won

714
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 8: that first championship, and then of course Lebron you created

715
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 8: a lot of lifetime fans going to the finals four

716
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:19,600
Speaker 8: straight years and winning it twice. So the landscape is great.

717
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 8: The population continues to grow, tons of sports fans, and

718
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 8: now Vandy, what we have is there's generations that like

719
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 8: when you were there, that were little kids, they've grown

720
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 8: up South Florida sports fans. Their parents have roots to

721
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 8: New York and Boston and Philly and all these other places,

722
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 8: but those kids were born and raised. You know, my

723
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 8: sons are now twenty one and nineteen, wow, and they're

724
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,719
Speaker 8: Florida fans. You know, they go to Marlins games, they

725
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 8: go to the Dolphin games, they go to every Panther

726
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 8: game and love it and they're big fans of the

727
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:54,959
Speaker 8: South Florida teams. So I think that's what's really changed.

728
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 8: Now we have a generation that's growing up that was

729
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 8: born and raised in South Florida to back in the nineties,

730
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 8: everybody was from somewhere else.

731
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 3: It's kind of like the Texans fans. The kids who

732
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 3: were kids when the Texans started are now adults and

733
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 3: we've been through some tough time. Steve, I don't know

734
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 3: if you've heard, but now a resurgence is on with

735
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 3: Demiko Ryans. So let's talk about the Dolphin. Steve Goldstein

736
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 3: with US preseason TV play by play announcer for the

737
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 3: Dolphins and also pregame host on the radio network. Is

738
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 3: Joe Rose still doing the color I.

739
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 5: Hope Joe Rose is doing color.

740
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:29,120
Speaker 8: Jimmy ceffalo is on the call, and myself and former

741
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 8: Dolphin O J McDuffie doing the pregame shows.

742
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, excellent. Well, tell me what is this year like

743
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:36,360
Speaker 3: after the success of last year?

744
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 8: I think maybe not to the extent that the Jets have,

745
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 8: but pretty close. The chips are in the middle, they're

746
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 8: all in. They make the trade last year for Tyreek Hill,

747
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 8: they make the trade during the season for Bradley Chubb.

748
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 8: Then you go make the trade for Jalen Rams. So

749
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 8: general manager Chris Greervandy all these draft picks that he

750
00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 8: compiled when they made the trade Tunsel coming here to Texans,

751
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 8: some other deals. Chris Career had all these draft picks.

752
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 8: He's taken them and he's turned him into star players. Right, So,

753
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 8: I think they're looking at it as two is now

754
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 8: in year four. Next year will be the last year

755
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 8: of that rookie deal. Still, you know, at a fairly

756
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:24,239
Speaker 8: reasonable price. Jalen Wattle, Javon Holland, all these players they

757
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:28,080
Speaker 8: drafted are within that price range, you know where you're

758
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 8: still you're not paying them an absolute fortune. Those days

759
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 8: are gonna end pretty soon for this team. So I

760
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 8: think they're all in on making that next step. They

761
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:40,960
Speaker 8: made the playoffs for the first time since twenty sixteen,

762
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:43,920
Speaker 8: nearly had that game won in Buffalo.

763
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 5: They were oh so close.

764
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 8: I think this year, not only to make the playoffs,

765
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 8: but win some games in the playoffs is the goal.

766
00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,800
Speaker 3: What's the relationship between Tua and the fans. The fans

767
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 3: sentiment about Tua.

768
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, they love them. You know other people might not,

769
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 5: but the fans have love him.

770
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 8: Look the season he had last year in the games

771
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 8: that he did play a dozen games. They haven't seen

772
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 8: that since the Dan Marino days. I mean, this guy

773
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 8: was lighting it up. He was top ten and MVP voting.

774
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 8: You know, you remember some of the highlights the game

775
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 8: against Baltimore when they came from behind. The connection between

776
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 8: two A Waddle and Tyreek is nothing South Florida has

777
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:22,840
Speaker 8: seen since Marino to the Marx Brothers, Duper and Clayton.

778
00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:26,440
Speaker 8: It's exciting and the fans are all in there or

779
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:27,239
Speaker 8: there behind him.

780
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 3: Oh, very cool. Mike McDaniel was in a cubicle here

781
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 3: a long time ago as an assistant assisted assist and

782
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 3: what's he like to be around.

783
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:36,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's pretty amazing.

784
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:39,600
Speaker 8: The first time McDaniel was on the field as a

785
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 8: paid head coach. Tamiko is the middle linebacker, the Mike linebacker.

786
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:47,120
Speaker 8: So that's how far it goes. You know, an incredible guy.

787
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 8: He's had his struggles. It's well documented alcohol issues for him.

788
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 8: He had to take a step away from the NFL.

789
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,920
Speaker 8: He went to a league called the UFL, where he

790
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 8: coached in Sacramento. Great story he tells. Denzel Washington's son

791
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,360
Speaker 8: was his running back. Yeah, back then, he knows what

792
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,919
Speaker 8: it's like to kind of be you know, left out,

793
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,400
Speaker 8: kind of at the bottom of whatever your profession is,

794
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,879
Speaker 8: and appreciates every day that he's here. So a great guy,

795
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:24,680
Speaker 8: always upbeat, always has time for people like us, appreciates

796
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 8: every single thing that he has, and I think that

797
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 8: permeates onto his team.

798
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 5: He's a pretty cool guy to be around.

799
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:36,040
Speaker 8: Not the typical coach that you and I grew up

800
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 8: maybe getting to know and you know, interviewing in things

801
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 8: like that.

802
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 5: Not the typical coach. Pretty fascinating to me.

803
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:44,759
Speaker 3: Actually, Well, when you grew up in the media, Don

804
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,080
Speaker 3: Shula was still coaching the Peltics. Not to date you.

805
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:49,720
Speaker 3: You are very young, you're ten years old, but Shula

806
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 3: was still there. Then Jimmy Johnson, who I think did

807
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 3: an underrated job putting together some talent in the organization,

808
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,439
Speaker 3: especially on defense. Obviously they couldn't replace the quarterback after

809
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:03,839
Speaker 3: that nineteen ninety nine season. But you tell me, were

810
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 3: the fans a little too greedy back then? With the

811
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 3: Wanstead years going to the playoffs, sometimes winning a playoff game,

812
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 3: sometimes not. But you had consistent winning seasons until it

813
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 3: bottomed out, and I always thought, then, hey, you better

814
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 3: be careful what you ask for because you don't know

815
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:21,320
Speaker 3: where you're going, and they went into a long, darker period.

816
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:22,399
Speaker 5: And they're kind of still in that period.

817
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,239
Speaker 8: And last year they made the playoffs for the first

818
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 8: time since sixteen, but they lost in the first round, right,

819
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 8: and it was on the road. So yeah, you know,

820
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 8: you go back then, back in the sixteen game schedule,

821
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 8: the ten and six, the eleven and five, win one game.

822
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:38,840
Speaker 8: I mean, you take that and run. If the Dolphins

823
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,560
Speaker 8: would have done that in any of the last fifteen

824
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 8: twenty years, you would have taken that. So you are

825
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:49,720
Speaker 8: one hundred percent right looking back from a fan base, Yeah,

826
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:50,240
Speaker 8: they were.

827
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 5: A little bit greedy. You're right, Steve.

828
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:53,719
Speaker 3: It's always great to catch up. Thanks a lot for

829
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:54,080
Speaker 3: being with it.

830
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:57,040
Speaker 8: Likewise, many great to see and glad everything's going here

831
00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 8: so well in Houston for you personally. And it seems

832
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 8: like with the coach, the quarterback, the draft picks they

833
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,960
Speaker 8: got is a team that could be on the rise

834
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:07,280
Speaker 8: pretty quickly.

835
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 5: Things can turn around in a diamond this league.

836
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,800
Speaker 1: We know that that is so true.

837
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:16,319
Speaker 2: Steve Goldstein covering the Dolphins does TV the preseason for them,

838
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,680
Speaker 2: does a great, great job and glad he got up

839
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:22,320
Speaker 2: with his old friend Mark vandermir All. Right, we get back.

840
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 2: We got a little bit more to do. Let's hear

841
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:27,319
Speaker 2: from John Grenard to finish up next right here on

842
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:28,240
Speaker 2: Texans All Access.

843
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:31,920
Speaker 1: Man, cannot wait for tomorrow three o'clock. Actually before that.

844
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:33,200
Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna get to this stadium in like

845
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,240
Speaker 1: nine in the morning. Let's be jacked.

846
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 2: The pregame show starts at twelve with Sewn and Seth.

847
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 2: I'll hop on about twelve fifteen. It's gonna be great stuff.

848
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:44,720
Speaker 2: Can't wait, just really can't wait for this game against

849
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 2: Miami Dolphins. I know one guy who is absolutely jacked,

850
00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 2: even more so than I am, and I'm John Harris

851
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:54,400
Speaker 2: will playing Elson Southern Reporter. It's edge rusher defensive and

852
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:55,800
Speaker 2: John Grenard.

853
00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 1: He caught up with Drew to talk about this preseason game.

854
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:03,560
Speaker 6: Jonathan Grenard g number fifty two defensive lineman for the Texans.

855
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:04,399
Speaker 6: How are you, my friend?

856
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 9: I'm good man, trying to stay cool out here, but

857
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 9: you know, a lot of work to do, but we've

858
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:09,879
Speaker 9: been grinding hard. I'm excited to see what we got

859
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 9: coming forward.

860
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 6: Do things kind of skip by now? You had a

861
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 6: first preseason game. You've got a few practices in here.

862
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,120
Speaker 6: Now you've got another team coming into practice and you

863
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 6: play them on Saturday.

864
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,320
Speaker 5: Take me through this last week and a half. Change

865
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:23,360
Speaker 5: for you guys.

866
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 9: I think for us, the biggest kid is to not

867
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,359
Speaker 9: change anything, you know, just continue to do what we do,

868
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:28,880
Speaker 9: you know, working on our stuff, you know, things that

869
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 9: we're learning day in and day out, and it doesn't

870
00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:33,440
Speaker 9: change when we go when somebody else lines up against us.

871
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:35,719
Speaker 9: You know, I think that it's it's a defense in

872
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 9: the offense on east side of where you have to

873
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:41,480
Speaker 9: continue to just repetitively getting reps mentally physical reps. Obviously

874
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 9: a new scheme and new guys coming in, but it's

875
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:45,400
Speaker 9: definitely exciting, you know, to see how I work with

876
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 9: transition to the you know, obviously against those teams.

877
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:49,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, you're an optimistic guy. You've been optimistic

878
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 6: heading into every season. But the optimism was a little

879
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:52,640
Speaker 6: different this year, isn't it?

880
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:52,920
Speaker 5: Yeah?

881
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 1: One hundred percent.

882
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:55,719
Speaker 9: I mean I just think overall, it's just it's time.

883
00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:57,759
Speaker 9: I think it's time for us. Why not? Why not us,

884
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 9: you know, to turn the things around and to see

885
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 9: our work actually get the results. We want for our work,

886
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,319
Speaker 9: and I think that's anybody. You don't play this game

887
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 9: to lose. So I think it's not just guys like myself,

888
00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 9: but other guys on the team that you know, whether

889
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 9: there's one year deals you know coming from other teams,

890
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,280
Speaker 9: or most of your deals, whatever it is, the mission

891
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,880
Speaker 9: is definitely has always been the same. But then I

892
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 9: would just have to execute better, and I think overall

893
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:17,239
Speaker 9: that's what we're trying to do.

894
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 6: You were one of many around the quarterback constantly when

895
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 6: you were in the game the other night. What's different

896
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:23,960
Speaker 6: about you this year as opposed to your first couple

897
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 6: of years in the league.

898
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 9: I would say, majority slow down. I feel faster, stronger,

899
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:29,560
Speaker 9: No things, just I've just seen a lot more now,

900
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:31,600
Speaker 9: and I think just overall understand who I am as

901
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 9: a football player as a person, and I don't switch

902
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,480
Speaker 9: anything up. I don't straight away from things that I

903
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,279
Speaker 9: haven't done before or seen before, or I don't train

904
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:39,759
Speaker 9: with doing things, so overall, just continue to just try

905
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 9: to make those things the best things and try to

906
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,000
Speaker 9: perfect those things that I do really good. And I

907
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 9: just think that's the testament of you know, our coaching staff,

908
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,759
Speaker 9: you know our training in the offseason and just continuously

909
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 9: just repeating these reps every single time to try to

910
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:54,360
Speaker 9: make sure that we do perfected in one hundred percent.

911
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:55,880
Speaker 5: Tell me about the scheme that you're part of. You

912
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:57,319
Speaker 5: just brought up some of the coaches. Okay, you've got

913
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 5: a guy who's.

914
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 6: Been here in Jacques Casar, then you got change at

915
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:02,040
Speaker 6: the top of the Ryan's and Matt Burke and all that.

916
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:04,760
Speaker 6: What's it like that mix and what sort of scheme

917
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,600
Speaker 6: they have you in that makes you so excited so

918
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:09,480
Speaker 6: pumped up about what you guys are cooking.

919
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 9: Yeah, I think they see a lot of guys that

920
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:12,640
Speaker 9: are hungry, guys that can go if you just let

921
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 9: them go. And I think the system is made for that.

922
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:16,880
Speaker 9: I think just lets guys go. Especially when we're speaking

923
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:19,280
Speaker 9: from upfront. We're attacked front, and I think overall it's

924
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 9: been that's you kind of can see that from where

925
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:22,840
Speaker 9: Di Miko's been and obviously with Burke as well in

926
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 9: his past where he's been. But we're trying to just

927
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:26,239
Speaker 9: bring that thing here and I think overall, I think

928
00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:28,399
Speaker 9: we're doing that a really good job. It's like I said,

929
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:30,000
Speaker 9: with more reps, you get better at it. And get

930
00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 9: you more comfortable at it. But I just think those

931
00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 9: two just more physical and downhill. I love that about

932
00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:35,120
Speaker 9: a defense.

933
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:37,840
Speaker 6: We see the iron sharpens iron t shirts. It's a

934
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:40,400
Speaker 6: mantra you guys are living by. It's very very important

935
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:44,040
Speaker 6: what Texans player is the iron that sharpens you?

936
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it gotta be lt.

937
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,480
Speaker 9: Let me tumpson if it ain't Tunso it's tightest any

938
00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 9: of the old line. But honestly, I mean, it's one

939
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:53,320
Speaker 9: thing about when we all understand what we're trying to

940
00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:54,799
Speaker 9: achieve here, and I think that we all got the

941
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:57,080
Speaker 9: same mindset and we understand that what it takes of

942
00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:58,719
Speaker 9: it and what it requires of us, whether we got

943
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:00,680
Speaker 9: to you know, get to it during practice, even though

944
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:03,319
Speaker 9: we can be cool in the locker room, but at

945
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 9: that same time, when it's signed to lock in, we

946
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:06,840
Speaker 9: gotta go at it. And it's no feelings at it.

947
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:08,920
Speaker 9: I mean, it's none personal. We just know it's business

948
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 9: and it's gotta work, gotta get done. So you know,

949
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:12,799
Speaker 9: they may get pissed off, We get pissed off, but

950
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 9: it's all love at the end of the day. But

951
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:15,759
Speaker 9: we also understand we're trying to get to which makes

952
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:17,839
Speaker 9: it that much better when it's time, you know, when

953
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 9: it's not to go.

954
00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:21,000
