Speaker 2: today it won't be as hot.

5
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 3: Just wait, what's the forecast?

Speaker 2: I don't want to take anything away from the great

10
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,439
Speaker 2: meteorologists in town, because I'm telling you, when it comes

11
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 2: time for a hurricane or major weather event, they're all

12
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 2: over it.

13
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 1: They do a great job.

14
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 2: But there are times I think they've got to look

00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 2: at their job and go, what's gonna be today, Jimmy, well,

00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:41,559
Speaker 3: Right well, you might get some here.

20
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 4: There's some moisture up here in Nova Scotia and we

21
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 4: might be able to get some of that, but that'd

22
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 4: be not that's not happy. You know what it is

23
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:51,279
Speaker 4: in New Orleans though, it's low nineties and right now

24
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 4: that sounds good. Actually, no, that's how bad it is

25
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 4: when low nineties sounds good.

26
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,279
Speaker 3: I never I know.

27
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: My wife said to me the other day she's out

28
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 1: in LA with my daughter and it's like, well, he

29
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: was eighty four the other day. I'm like, I don't

00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 1: give two. It was one o four here.

31
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 2: I want you to add twenty degrees on that and

32
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 2: then tell me how you feel chant of that taste?

33
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, how does that taste? I was like, eighty four.

34
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 1: I take that. I would take that in a are

35
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,039
Speaker 1: you kidding? Oh my goodness.

36
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 2: Well, New Orleans is for next week, Miami is for

37
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 2: this week, and we'll get to Miami after a little bit.

38
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 2: But Mark and I have to respond in some way,

39
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,759
Speaker 2: shape or form to what happened today at practice.

40
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,479
Speaker 1: Mark, we had our first brew. Ha ha, I love that word,

41
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 1: a brew.

42
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 5: Haha.

43
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 2: We had a frakus at practice. And I'll be honest,

44
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 2: I was standing right there. I was watched the play. Yeah,

45
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 2: and I have no idea what happened. Well, you never

46
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 2: know what people say. What the history is, the mini

47
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 2: history of things. There was a little bit of one

48
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 2: yesterday and Demiico liked it.

49
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 4: And then today he knows that boys will be boys

50
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 4: that are out there. It's one hundred degrees, you're knocking heads.

51
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 4: It's football, and things happen. People have feelings about what's

52
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 4: going on between them out there.

53
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 3: They were pretty physical today.

54
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 4: I thought, dang, this is physical day off tomorrow, so

55
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:12,920
Speaker 4: maybe that has something to do with it. They go

56
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 4: three on one off, three on one off. That's pretty

57
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 4: much been the pattern all training camp long, and I

58
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 4: like it.

59
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 3: I like what I see.

60
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 4: I don't want them to get into fights obviously during games,

61
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 4: fifteen yard penalties during practice. You don't want to see

62
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 4: guys get hurt. But it was competitive today. They're getting

63
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 4: on each other's nerves out there, and it is such

64
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 4: the right time to have the next two weeks happen

65
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 4: with two joint practices with the Dolphins this week, two

66
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 4: joint practices with the Saints next week. So after that,

67
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 4: after the Saints game, you are in scout team mode.

68
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 4: You no longer going really hard physically against each other.

69
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 4: You're going against other teams the way it should be.

70
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,360
Speaker 2: Can I interest you in a days of training camp

71
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 2: remaining stats?

72
00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 1: Yeah?

73
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 2: Okay, so today's the fourteenth, right, I finished practice today.

74
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 2: So August twenty seventh, we played the Saints New Orleans

75
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 2: seven o'clock kick in New Orleans. Can't wait for that

76
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 2: Sunday night games. You get pumped for that. Okay, So

77
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 2: fourteenth today, twenty seventh, that day against the Saints. Thirteen

78
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 2: days in that time. There are four days off, four

79
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,959
Speaker 2: player days off. There are two days of just walkthroughs

80
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 2: before the preseason games. Right, there are four joint practice

81
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 2: days with the Dolphins and the Saints. There are two

82
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 2: games against the Dolphins and the Saints. Now do the

83
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 2: math on that. That's twelve. Four to two, four to two,

84
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 2: that's twelve. That means there's only one practice remaining of

85
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 2: just the Texans. Wow, only one training camp practice of

86
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 2: just the Texans in the training camp and that's Monday,

87
00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 2: No Monday after the Dolphins, all right, so that's a

88
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 2: day they'll left Sunday off.

89
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 3: Sunday's definitely a day off. Monday's got to be a

90
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 3: reasonably tough practice.

91
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 1: That's got to be the one.

92
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 2: Then you travel to New Orleans Tuesday, day off, Wednesday,

93
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 2: but then Saints Thursday, Saints Friday, walk through Saturday.

94
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, play game Sunday.

95
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 2: So it's four players day off, player days off, two

96
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 2: days of walkthrough preceding the games, four joint practices with

97
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 2: the Dolphins and Saints. Two games against the Dolphins and

98
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 2: Saints one practice of just the Texans remaining in training.

99
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 4: For them to get into fights with themselves, right, So

100
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 4: that's all we're gonna see. The dad will see fights

101
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,359
Speaker 4: with other teams coming up with these joint practices, and

102
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 4: that's really what people want to see. But I think

103
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 4: I looked at it that way. Once Wednesday hits, it's

104
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 4: twelve days, and half the days are head to head,

105
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 4: real action with another opponent, right, So that's cool. And

106
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 4: then after the Saints game the morning the next morning,

107
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,919
Speaker 4: they're gonna start making cuts. Yes, and we're gonna be

108
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,279
Speaker 4: on the air Monday morning on the twenty eighth, and

109
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,119
Speaker 4: we'll be They won't announce anything at that point, of course,

110
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 4: but we'll be seeing the results on Twitter.

111
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 3: X on X it's so stupid.

112
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 4: Come up with a look, if you got to change

113
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,599
Speaker 4: the name, come up with another name then X.

114
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 1: It's like we called.

115
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 2: Prince Prince even though he came up with the symbol,

116
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 2: and then Prince just said, you know what, everybody's calling

117
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 2: me Prince, I'm gonna.

118
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 3: Go back to Prince. You think they're gonna go back

119
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 3: to Twitter? You know what? You know what I thought

120
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,840
Speaker 3: about New Coke, New coke. Yeah. Now, some people are

121
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 3: too young to remember.

122
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,599
Speaker 4: In the eighties, this is dated. Now, this is so dated.

123
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 4: They came up with a new recipe of coke. Nobody

124
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 4: liked it. It was called New Coke, and nobody liked it.

125
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 4: They thought it tasted too much like pepsi. If you

126
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 4: like pepsi, I'm sorry, but that's just the way people felt.

127
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 4: And then they brought back coke as Coke Classic, and

128
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,359
Speaker 4: then eventually they just got rid of New Coke and

129
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 4: they went to coke again, the real recipe. So maybe

130
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 4: in a branding sense, he realizes, I'm going back to Twitter,

131
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 4: because even getting rid of the blue and the little

132
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 4: the bird thing on my the icon on my phone.

133
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 3: To up the app.

134
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 4: I can't tell you how many times early on I

135
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 4: was scrolling by the X because where's the Oh yeah,

136
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 4: I'm looking for the X.

137
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 2: Now, well, here's the other thing, the athletic. If you

138
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 2: have the athletic, the athletic app is a black A,

139
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 2: so it looks black. It's a black background with a

140
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 2: white A. And he looked the same. I can't tell

141
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,279
Speaker 2: you a number of times I've actually clicked on that

142
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 2: A and went, dang it, No, it's the you know,

143
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,160
Speaker 2: so you've got that going on too.

144
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 1: But either way, we digress, we digress.

145
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 2: It was a I felt like the offense today was

146
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 2: as good as I can remember, and I do think

147
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 2: there were a couple of things ago that I felt like,

148
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 2: all quarterbacks through the ball well, all quarterbacks through the

149
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 2: ball well thought. David said, one of his better throwing

150
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 2: practices that I've seen in a long time. Maybe if

151
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 2: ever he was. He was not even in completions, he

152
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 2: was dotting him. There was one and he threw down

153
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 2: a seam to Vanette and Jake Hanson was hip to hip,

154
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 2: but it was one of those balls that somehow got

155
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 2: to Vanette, but it just got on him so fast

156
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 2: he wasn't expecting because Hanson was such a good coverage

157
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 2: he didn't catch it. But even even in completions were

158
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,679
Speaker 2: pretty good throw So there was one bad throw by CJ.

159
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 6: Threw.

160
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 2: He threw off his back foot with no sauce on

161
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 2: it against the blitz that Steven Nelson picked off and

162
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 2: man covers.

163
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 6: That was it.

164
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 2: That was the only bad throw. Really nice throws today,

165
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 2: Davis nice starts.

166
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 7: E J.

167
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: Perry, how about the throw he had in the back

168
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: of the end zone. That was nice. But here's the

169
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: one thing that stood out to me the most.

170
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 3: Mark.

171
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 2: I saw the run game with more wrinkles and in

172
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 2: different schemes today. Then either I haven't seen him in

173
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 2: a while or I've never seen him from this group.

174
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 5: Now.

175
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 2: I've seen a lot of the concepts, but a lot

176
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 2: of the concepts today were huh okay. And you can

177
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 2: tell because the run game had some success and you

178
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 2: get that point for a defense and you're like, oh,

179
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 2: this is gonna be this play, and then you start

180
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 2: seeing the block and you're like, well wait, oh oh

181
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 2: man that.

182
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: There were some run game concepts.

183
00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 2: Today that I really really like, and I felt like

184
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 2: I wrote in my hair's hits. Bobby Slowan was right

185
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 2: in front of me, and every time I saw a

186
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 2: new one, I wanted to go up and like dap

187
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 2: him up, like coach good one. Because there were some

188
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 2: different stuff. Now, it's stuff some stuff that we've seen

189
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 2: in iterations of the forty nine ers in this offense,

190
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 2: but there were some other stuff where I was like, oh,

191
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 2: I like that, I like that. I mean they were

192
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 2: in they ran him a few times, and so I

193
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 2: felt like the offense was on it today. It felt good.

194
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 2: It felt like it was complete. Like pass the game

195
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 2: run game were kind of working together. There were still

196
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 2: some moments where the run game had had some struggles.

197
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 2: But look Will Anderson in practice today, so I helped. Yeah,

198
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 2: and there were some run wrinkles that I thought I

199
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 2: was gonna.

200
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:38,839
Speaker 3: Bring that up.

201
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 4: Will Anderson's practice yesterday was a phenomenal camp practice.

202
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:44,439
Speaker 1: Unbelievable.

203
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 3: They couldn't get anything done.

204
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,439
Speaker 4: It was almost like you had to pull him out

205
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 4: of practice so the offense can effectively practice because he

206
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 4: was destroying everything in his past everything, and it was

207
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 4: really fun to see. Now today it didn't practice, had

208
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:02,079
Speaker 4: a day off, offense looked better. I'm thinking, hmm, interesting,

209
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,559
Speaker 4: not that. Look, I don't want to put them in Canton,

210
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 4: Johnny correct, but that was a really promising rookie practice.

211
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,440
Speaker 4: We've seen Tank Dell have these explosive practices. I'm not

212
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 4: putting Tank Dell in Canton either, but it's great to

213
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:16,560
Speaker 4: see your young players.

214
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,080
Speaker 3: We saw it with Pierce last year.

215
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 4: It's great to see your young players shine like that

216
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:25,719
Speaker 4: because it shows you some glimpses of the upside, and

217
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 4: you want to see a whole lot of those glimpses

218
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 4: when you get into regular season plays. So I thought

219
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 4: that was cool. I thought CJ threw the ball. Well,

220
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 4: today there were some really nice plays. Look, this is

221
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 4: what you want to see. Take a step forward. Yesterday

222
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,719
Speaker 4: wasn't the best practice for the offense. Today better. Now

223
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 4: you get the Dolphins coming in. I am jacked up

224
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 4: to see this. We're in our gym. We're not really

225
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 4: in a gym, we're in a field, but it's an

226
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 4: expression point and I can't wait, you know, seeing my

227
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 4: friends from Miami, seeing the Dolphins here, all their talents,

228
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,200
Speaker 4: seeing how the Texans respond to it defensively and offensively.

229
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 4: Outstanding test for this team. Then next week the Saints.

230
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 4: They look pretty good. Derek carth thro TV pass. I

231
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:04,680
Speaker 4: think the Saints are sneaky hot in that NFC which

232
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 4: is wide open.

233
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, Derek car look, I thought pretty good. Jamis looked good.

234
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 2: All the Saints look pretty good. One interesting aspect I

235
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 2: think about the Dolphins versus the Texans. When you go

236
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 2: look at depth charts and you look at rookies, like

237
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:19,839
Speaker 2: you know, our lads, is a good depth chart to

238
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 2: look at. And so they've got the rookies labeled in green. Yeah,

239
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 2: they color coat things. There's not a rookie starting on

240
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 2: that team. That's a veteran roster, a veteran roster, and

241
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 2: even the one they have two of them, one of

242
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 2: them just got hurt camp Smith and we may not

243
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 2: see Jaylen Waddle because he's been banged up, which would stink,

244
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 2: because he's coming back to Houston and I think the

245
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 2: secondary needs to see some guys with some serious jets.

246
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 2: They will see Tyreek Hill, but they may not see

247
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 2: Jalen Wattall just do some of the injuries he's out with.

248
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 1: But that's okay.

249
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 2: But the guy we're gonna see plenty of Saturday is

250
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 2: our good friend who is on our preseason broadcast. He's

251
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 2: gonna be joining us for a lot of things on

252
00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 2: Texans Radio Texans OG's.

253
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 1: He joined us for Texas Monday. His name is Indy

254
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: Kalou if you don't know.

255
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 2: And he was a little mad at me because I

256
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 2: actually erroneously referred to him as a guest.

257
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 7: I'm a little hurt. John called me a guest. I

258
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 7: thought I was part of the family.

259
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:18,839
Speaker 2: Now I shouldn't have said our brothers joining us, That's

260
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 2: what I should have said. I just yeah, it's our brother,

261
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 2: Indie Klue. That's the way we're gonna put it. You're right,

262
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,840
Speaker 2: you are. You are in the family for sure, Indy.

263
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 2: And we won't make you share a room with John McLain.

264
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 2: You get your own room when we get our beach

265
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 2: house for vacation.

266
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 3: I didn't know this this would be.

267
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:38,559
Speaker 1: That would be fun beach house. That would be a

268
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 1: fun beach house vacation next summer. We're on.

269
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 4: Okay, Andre, McLean and Wilson in one room and his

270
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 4: own room.

271
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 3: McLean and Aaron Wilson roommates. All right, and d great job.

272
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 4: The other night on the preseason premiere Texans at New England.

273
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 3: That was great.

274
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 4: I know you've done TV games before, you've done some

275
00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 4: Texans radio before.

276
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,320
Speaker 3: In the preseason. How did you feel it went?

277
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 4: How how did it feel being in the booth with

278
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,839
Speaker 4: Kevin Kugler and being part of that experience.

279
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 7: You know, just the whole team was awesome and y'all

280
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,200
Speaker 7: made it so easily leading up to the game with

281
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 7: the practice runs that we have. Listening to John and

282
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 7: what he says about the players. I do steal some

283
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 7: of his nuggets out there, but always make sure you

284
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 7: know to give him his props. But nah, it was

285
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 7: fun and I really appreciated just the opportunity and Kevin Kugler.

286
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:25,959
Speaker 7: I mean, you talk about one of the best played

287
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 7: by play guys for television. You know, we all know

288
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 7: who's the best for radio when it comes to play

289
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 7: by play, but for television, Kevin Cougler is one of

290
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 7: the best out there. So it just made it so easy.

291
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 7: It was fun. It's like riding a bike. I was

292
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 7: a little bit nervous because, like you mentioned, I can't

293
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 7: even remember the last game I called. It was a

294
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 7: college game, probably four or five years ago. But once

295
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 7: you get started, you're just talking about the greatest sport

296
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 7: in the world, so it becomes easy.

297
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 3: Andy.

298
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 2: As you're going through the game, I would imagine, you know,

299
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:52,719
Speaker 2: like you said, you know, going through nerves and just

300
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 2: kind of working through, you know, teaming up with Kevin

301
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,560
Speaker 2: et cetera. As you got through the second half, did

302
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 2: you kind of are getting in a groove and also

303
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 2: were able to kind of make mental notes of, Oh,

304
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 2: I like what this guy looks like. I like what

305
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 2: this guy looks like, or did it take you kind

306
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 2: of going back and watching the game later to have

307
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 2: that feeling and that those thoughts.

308
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 7: You know what, No, as the game goes on, you're like, oh,

309
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 7: I really like what I'm seeing from the defense.

310
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 6: And one thing.

311
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 7: About you know, you asked the question do you like

312
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 7: certain players and do you notice it during the game.

313
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 7: On the offensive side, there are players like Mike Boon.

314
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 7: I was like, oh, I like what he brings to

315
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 7: the team. Obviously case Keenum, I feel stupid that I

316
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 7: was surprised at how good he looked because it's katese Keenum,

317
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 7: but he looked very efficient. He looked like a leader

318
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 7: out there. But with the defense, John, it was like,

319
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 7: I like this unit. You know, I found myself saying, man,

320
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 7: I like all four of the front and rushers. I

321
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 7: like the way they're pursuing to the ball. So that

322
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 7: was pretty cool. When I was evaluating the defense talking

323
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 7: about the defense, it wasn't just one guy.

324
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 6: It was what I liked as a unit.

325
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 4: And do you played a long time in the league,

326
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 4: what's it like to play in a preseason game, especially

327
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 4: in the second half for a veteran, where you know

328
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 4: that you have to show out you're playing football, but

329
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 4: you know it's a preseason context as well.

330
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 3: How do you approach that? How is that?

331
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 7: Different players approach it differently. So you have some guys,

332
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 7: even in the second half, if they're playing, they've already

333
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 7: made the team, so they're just working on certain moves.

334
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 7: Then you have guys and I've been through all of

335
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 7: the experiences. Then you have guys where they're trying to

336
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 7: make the team. Like I mentioned to Kevin Coogler in

337
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 7: the second half, I said, for many of these guys

338
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 7: out here, this game means more than a regular season game.

339
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 7: For the players playing in a regular season game, and

340
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 7: what I mean by that, they're trying to live out

341
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 7: their dreams. So you know a lot of people are thinking, oh,

342
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 7: this doesn't matter, it's a preseason game. But for those

343
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 7: guys on the field, especially the ones who have to

344
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,440
Speaker 7: play in the second half, this is their super Bowl.

345
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 7: This is them trying to open eyes, not just for

346
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 7: the Houston Texans, for the entire league. So there's some

347
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 7: intense plays going. But then you have other guys, because

348
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 7: it's a numbers game, it's like, I'm gonna make the team,

349
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 7: so let me just work on my rip, you know,

350
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 7: let me work on flipping my hips. On certain plays.

351
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 7: So it just depends who's playing and who you're talking about.

352
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 7: But there are some guys where they're doing any and

353
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 7: everything they can to make the team, and then there

354
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 7: are other guys who are just trying to Like Jacob Martin,

355
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 7: you know, and I'm not saying he's made the team,

356
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 7: so don't say that I put that out there, but

357
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 7: when he's playing, I feel like he's the guy that's

358
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 7: just working on something that he wants to improve on.

359
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 7: But a guy like Kurt Hyness, even with the nice

360
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 7: season that he had last year, this is a guy

361
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 7: that's trying to prove that he should be on the roster.

362
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 7: So there's gonna be different approaches to the game.

363
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 2: And they as a defensive lineman, as I watched this

364
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 2: group and I'm kind of forecasting ahead with what they

365
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 2: have on the defensive line, and it feels like it's

366
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 2: a more stout group.

367
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 1: It feels like it's a deeper group.

368
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 2: But when Demigo is in San Francisco, you would see

369
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 2: four guys come out, you know, be both saw Armstead

370
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 2: and whoever else they had up front, and then sometime

371
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 2: in the first quarter he'd bring in another wave of

372
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 2: guys as a defensive lineman.

373
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 1: Was that something?

374
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 2: And I don't know how it worked every stop career,

375
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 2: but do you think for a defensive lineman that's beneficial

376
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 2: the fact that Okay, I can be fresh as the

377
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 2: game goes on.

378
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 1: Or do you not like it because you get out

379
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 1: of rhythm.

380
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 2: You know, you've been really working at left tackle, then

381
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 2: you go out of the game, you bring in the

382
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 2: second wave of guys, you go back in and maybe

383
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 2: the tackles made some adjustments.

384
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 1: Is that kind of slow you moment?

385
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 2: How do you kind of look at a defensive line

386
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 2: rotation of eight potentially nine guys that just kind of

387
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 2: come in waves.

388
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 7: It's huge if you're a defensive line coach and your

389
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 7: defensive coordinator trust the guys to rotate themselves. When I

390
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 7: was in Philadelphia during the run where we're winning the

391
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 7: division and losing in the conference championships, but we had

392
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 7: a lot of success on defense, we got to the

393
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 7: point where these were the eight defensive linemen and you

394
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 7: had your stars at your stars, you had your huge Douglases,

395
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 7: you had your Corey Simons. Those were the starters. But

396
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 7: our coaches trusted us enough where at that time I

397
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 7: was backing up Hugh Douglas. It was like, hey, Kalou,

398
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 7: when Hughes hired, tap him out, go give him a break,

399
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 7: then he's gonna come back in. So you didn't get

400
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 7: yourself a chance to get out of a groove. Because

401
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 7: the stars the will Anderson's the elite collins. If Roy

402
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 7: Lopez or Asano Ridgeway's trying to come in for him,

403
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 7: they're gonna be like, no, I'm good, I'm good. But

404
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,120
Speaker 7: then when they're tired, they rush them in. So if

405
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 7: they give them the ability to trade themselves in and out,

406
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 7: to rotate themselves in and out, I don't think it's

407
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 7: gonna mess with the groove.

408
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 3: That they get in and d Kalu with us Andy.

409
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,359
Speaker 4: We didn't see much of will Anderson the other night,

410
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 4: but we saw certainly some, and then at practice yesterday

411
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:33,640
Speaker 4: he's wrecking everybody. And people ask me, who haven't seen much,

412
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 4: what kind of player is he?

413
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 3: How do you describe him?

414
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,720
Speaker 4: He's a pass rusher, Yes, he's a great edge player. Yes,

415
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 4: I guess all of the above. How would you describe him?

416
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 4: What are you seeing so far? What do you think

417
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 4: the upside is for him? As we go further in

418
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 4: his career. Because I always point out Mario only had

419
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 4: four sacks his rookie year. Everybody just like hit the

420
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,919
Speaker 4: brakes a little bit. The expectation seems sky high. And

421
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,159
Speaker 4: JJ had five sacks his rookie year. What are you

422
00:17:58,160 --> 00:17:59,440
Speaker 4: seeing out of Anderson so far?

423
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 6: Violent hands? And I love it. You know what's funny.

424
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 7: The most impressive thing that I saw to Will Anderson

425
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 7: was during pre game. So for those that don't know,

426
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 7: during pre game, the defensive line they'll butt heads with

427
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,119
Speaker 7: the offensive lineman and they'll kind of just knock the

428
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,399
Speaker 7: dust off and it'll give him a chance just to

429
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,399
Speaker 7: hit each other and get used to the contact. But

430
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 7: you typically take care of each other during that drill.

431
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 7: And John's right there so he sees it up close.

432
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 7: I saw Will Anderson hitting guys and I was like, hey,

433
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 7: that's your teammate. You're about to take on the Patriots.

434
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 7: Like save some of that for the Patriots. But that's

435
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,639
Speaker 7: just who he is. It looks like he appears to

436
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 7: be one of those guys that there's no middle. You

437
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 7: either turn it on or off, and he's always on.

438
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,479
Speaker 7: And I love that because you have to be violent

439
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:46,199
Speaker 7: to be successful, especially at that position. He as far

440
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 7: as sacks, you know, four or five, six, seven sacks.

441
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 7: I don't know how many sacks he's gonna have, but

442
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:51,719
Speaker 7: he's gonna be very disruptive.

443
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 6: If he stays healthy.

444
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, yesterday, holy smokes, he was on one. The offense

445
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,679
Speaker 2: couldn't block him. Yesterday it was and it was just

446
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:02,119
Speaker 2: exactly that indeed player practice where he literally.

447
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,879
Speaker 1: Dove at Damian Pierce on a run play.

448
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:06,440
Speaker 3: What is he doing?

449
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 1: This guy's a nut on the other side of the ball.

450
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 2: And indeed, obviously you played in the most important spot.

451
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 2: You played in the trenches where you gotta win in

452
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,439
Speaker 2: the trenches. There's no doubt about that. And so you

453
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,720
Speaker 2: never really had to face anybody with speed like Tank Dell.

454
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 2: But how do you think defenses now and I'll say now,

455
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 2: but when Tank Dell gets in a rhythm for this

456
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 2: team and what we saw the other night, but he

457
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,680
Speaker 2: really got in one and worked himself into the ladder.

458
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 2: And I think there were two passes from Davis Mills

459
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,159
Speaker 2: that actually could have put him even more so. But

460
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 2: how much pressure do you think Tank Dell puts on

461
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 2: a defense and how do you think that changes things

462
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 2: on that defensive side of the ball.

463
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 6: A whole lot of pressure. The toughest thing to defend is.

464
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,879
Speaker 7: Not size, it's not strength, is not even a great

465
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,399
Speaker 7: route that you run. Those are all very important, but

466
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 7: the toughest things to defend the speed and Tankdale has

467
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 7: speed and quickness, and he's gained time fast.

468
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 6: You know, you have guys that you scouted.

469
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:04,640
Speaker 7: And you hear, oh, he runs a four to two,

470
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,400
Speaker 7: he runs a four to three, or he even runs

471
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 7: a four to four, but it's like, well, I don't

472
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 7: see it when the pads are on.

473
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 6: With tang Dell, I don't know what.

474
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 7: His forty time is, but he appears to be faster

475
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 7: than whatever he ran up the combine.

476
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 6: And he's consistently fast and quick.

477
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 7: And that's what gives defensive coordinators headaches because you just

478
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 7: don't know who to use to match him up. But

479
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 7: safety's not going to be fast enough you bring in

480
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 7: an extra cornerback. It's one of those guys that, as

481
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 7: a youngster, third round pick, undersized guys, you might think

482
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,119
Speaker 7: it's crazy to think that defensive coordinator is going to

483
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 7: have to have special packages to defend him.

484
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 6: But with that speed, that's absolutely what they're gonna have

485
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:38,920
Speaker 6: to do.

486
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 3: And d let's talk about CJ.

487
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 6: Here.

488
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 4: We didn't see much the other night, a handful of reps,

489
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 4: so I asked Jamika Ryan's this.

490
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 3: I'll ask you this. How does he get better?

491
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,640
Speaker 4: And how do you get him reps but not expose

492
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,680
Speaker 4: him too much to injury possibilities because he needs to play,

493
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 4: clearly he needs the experience, but you don't want to

494
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 4: risk anything. How do you balce and saw that out

495
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 4: as we move through these next couple of weeks.

496
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,880
Speaker 7: You control what you control. You can't control injury as

497
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,359
Speaker 7: tough and I know I'm in the minority on this,

498
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 7: so I'm not going to stay up here and even

499
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:14,159
Speaker 7: say that I'm right. But in my opinion, especially with

500
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 7: the young guy that's supposed to be the face of

501
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 7: your franchise, this is the time you just put them

502
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 7: out there and you tell those guys upfront. You tell

503
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:25,400
Speaker 7: George FaUNN, you tell Michael Theater, you tell Jimmy morrisy like, hey,

504
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 7: we understand you aren't the starters right now, but you

505
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 7: better act like it when you're protecting CJ. Stroud because

506
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 7: you can't have too many reps. Where as soon as

507
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 7: he gets the ball, the pockets collapsing and he's getting sacked.

508
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 6: But with CJ.

509
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 7: Stroud and any player, in my opinion, mark, especially young players,

510
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 7: you can't be afraid of injury.

511
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 6: Football is a violent, violent sport. How many times do.

512
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,880
Speaker 7: We read throughout the week this player got hurt or practice,

513
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 7: this player got hurt during drills. But when you don't

514
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 7: see it in preseason games, it doesn't resonate. And I

515
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 7: feel like the NFL as a hold as a whole,

516
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 7: they're afraid to get guys hurt during preseason games, but

517
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,440
Speaker 7: they're not afraid to get them hurt at practice, which

518
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 7: it just doesn't make sense to me, But it's because

519
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 7: they don't want all the court of public opinions saying, oh,

520
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 7: you could have done this better, you could have kept

521
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 7: them out here or there.

522
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:13,879
Speaker 6: But my long.

523
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 7: Answer to your quick, easy question, you can't be afraid

524
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:18,719
Speaker 7: of injury. You just have to put guys out there

525
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 7: and let them play. This is a violent by the sport,

526
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 7: and somebody would be It would be ridiculous to blame

527
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 7: a coach, a trainer, a general manager if a player

528
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 7: gets injured during preseason.

529
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 6: It would just be it's a violent sport.

530
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 2: Indeed, joint practices coming up this week against the Miami Dolphins,

531
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:42,639
Speaker 2: I would assume that you had been through some maybe not,

532
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,399
Speaker 2: but just in general joint practices, they always get a

533
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 2: little spicy at certain times. And I think Sean actually

534
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 2: hit Seawan and Seth actually hit It's going to be

535
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 2: Jimmy Ward hitting Tyreek.

536
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:53,400
Speaker 1: Hill that's going to set it off.

537
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 2: I got a feeling Christian Harris almost set went off

538
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:57,159
Speaker 2: with Devin Singletary.

539
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 1: But what's been your experience with joint practice Indian? Do

540
00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:00,640
Speaker 1: you enjoy them?

541
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,399
Speaker 2: Is it fun for the players to see a different

542
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,440
Speaker 2: color jersey or is it just another kind of necessary

543
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 2: evil to get through training camp?

544
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 6: Love?

545
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 7: Love love joint practices. Love them as a player, because

546
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 7: every day was do you all remember that movie and

547
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 7: I'm showing my age Groundhog Day? Yeah, well, okay, okay,

548
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 7: So when you wake up and it's just the exact

549
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 7: same thing every day, That's what training camp was like

550
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 7: back when I played, And I'm sure it's like that now,

551
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 7: and then you add in just the pain of how

552
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 7: your body feels every single morning. But it got to

553
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,399
Speaker 7: the point where it was a little bit boring. It

554
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,680
Speaker 7: was a little bit boring because you're facing the same guy.

555
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 7: So to be able to have those competitions against someone

556
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 7: wearing a different jersey, to be able to show off,

557
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 7: and let's be real, a lot of these players, they

558
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,359
Speaker 7: like to show off in front of other people. So

559
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,119
Speaker 7: to be able to show off in front of another

560
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,640
Speaker 7: coaching staff, in front of other players, it really gets

561
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:52,240
Speaker 7: you hype, It really gets you excited.

562
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:53,920
Speaker 6: So I personally loved them.

563
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 7: I would say ninety five percent of the guys love

564
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 7: the joint practices. And yeah, you know there's going to

565
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:01,200
Speaker 7: be situation where.

566
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 6: A fight occurs. I have the over under.

567
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,400
Speaker 7: If someone asks I put it at two and a half,

568
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 7: I'm gonna say it's gonna be right under because I

569
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,919
Speaker 7: think it'll be right at two fights. I don't know

570
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,400
Speaker 7: what's gonna spark it. I will I will venture off

571
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 7: and say it's gonna be guys that are buried on

572
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 7: the depth chart who are trying to get noticed. I

573
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:19,640
Speaker 7: don't I don't know if it's gonna be the big

574
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 7: time players, the big name players.

575
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,639
Speaker 4: Can't wait for joint practices Wednesday and Thursday, and d

576
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,919
Speaker 4: you got so much Twitter love or is it X

577
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,160
Speaker 4: if you say X love that sounds really bad.

578
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 3: Twitter love.

579
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 4: After your broadcast debut with the Texans preseason crew on

580
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,919
Speaker 4: Thursday night, I've never seen anything like it in broadcasting.

581
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:41,479
Speaker 4: I think it was overwhelmingly wonderful. I think you can

582
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,440
Speaker 4: run for office right now. By the way, but I'm

583
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 4: going to your Twitter account. It's at n d kalou

584
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 4: simple enough. I mean, you got the handle all right,

585
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 4: and you haven't tweeted since January?

586
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 3: Are you gonna get back on Twitter?

587
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 7: I'm definitely gonna get back on Twitter or you know what,

00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:11,360
Speaker 7: and be active.

593
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 6: I liked it. I like interacting with folks.

594
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,399
Speaker 7: But when I walked away from the radio show, I figured,

595
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 7: nobody who cares about what you have to say now.

596
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 7: So now that I'm back in the mix and get

597
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:24,440
Speaker 7: a chance to talk about football on a weekly daily basis,

598
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 7: I'm definitely gonna get back on. But I appreciate that

599
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:29,399
Speaker 7: I haven't had a chance to look yet. But no,

600
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,439
Speaker 7: that when you told me that that that made me

601
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 7: feel good.

602
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,439
Speaker 2: All my ex girl friends live in Houston, so I'm

603
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 2: always careful about that.

604
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 1: I'm always I'm always careful. That's right.

605
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:42,280

Speaker 4: Tank makes the bobbling catch, you know, and like you

627
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,159
Speaker 4: gotta wait, you know, you don't know if he's in

628
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,119
Speaker 4: if they're gonna call it a touchdown. They called it

629
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,680
Speaker 4: a touchdown, and Andres saying, go Kogs. I mean there's

630
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 4: a lot happening right there in that cut.

631
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 2: So I was gonna ask Dre this in my pregame

632
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 2: hit because you had Marcus Jones on the Patriot side

633
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,680
Speaker 2: with punt returns, pigs, you know, whomever.

634
00:26:57,880 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 1: Whatever.

635
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 2: You had Case keenumbous, and you had Tank Dell. Well,

636
00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 2: were the odds that at Cougar was going to get

637
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 2: in the end zone? They were gonna somebody was gonna

638
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,240
Speaker 2: The odds were pretty good. Ye, and Tank Dell got

639
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 2: in the end zone.

640
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:11,879
Speaker 3: Some Cougar pride showing there, and it's a good thing.

641
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,399
Speaker 5: Yeah, shining through a little Cougar pride.

642
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 8: Was happy for Tank and the start that that he

643
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 8: got off to happy for Case as well. The way

644
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 8: he played when he came in the game showed some

645
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 8: you know, the ability to operate the huddle in a

646
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 8: new offense that he's having to learn. And you know,

647
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,399
Speaker 8: he showed a veteran presence, so kind of proud of

648
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 8: the Cougar's Marcus didn't get to see much of him,

649
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 8: uh in this one, but I'm sure during the season

650
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,480
Speaker 8: we're going to see a lot of Marcus.

651
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 2: Dre have thought a lot about Tank as I watched

652
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 2: games throughout this weekend and I watched justin fields he

653
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 2: had one hundred and twenty eight yards throwing you through

654
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,840
Speaker 2: two screens. But it made me think about Tank in

655
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 2: this sense, and I want to get your thoughts having

656
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 2: played the position, having a guy that can give you

657
00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:00,439
Speaker 2: a one play drive because he can take a screen

658
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 2: seventy five to the house. He can burn a safety

659
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 2: or corner on a post route and go seventy five

660
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,880
Speaker 2: tous As a quarterback and just to an offense, how

661
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 2: important is it to have a guy that you know

662
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,160
Speaker 2: can turn into one play drive when you need it most.

663
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's important because what he does z opens up

664
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 8: the field for everyone, not only the plays that you

665
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 8: just described, but now, all right, I'm.

666
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 5: A defensive coordinator.

667
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 8: I can't let and for example, Tank Dell take, you know,

668
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 8: just operate on this side of the field. So I

669
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,399
Speaker 8: got to take this away from him. So I'm gonna

670
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,679
Speaker 8: you know, account for him with another defender. Well, that

671
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 8: opens up opens it up for someone else to make

672
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 8: plays until you can hit those big plays over the top.

673
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,240
Speaker 5: Again going back to that player.

674
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:47,959
Speaker 8: So it's it's it's essential, it's important, and not everybody

675
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 8: actually ever gets to play with one.

676
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 5: But when you do, you know you have a special player.

677
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 4: All right, Adrea, let's talk quarterbacking here. It was only

678
00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 4: a handful of reps for CJ.

679
00:28:58,000 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 3: Stroud.

680
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 4: Everybody over analyze it, but that's all they got. So

681
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 4: I get it on one hand, But on the other hand,

682
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,959
Speaker 4: how do you develop them, continue to get him reps

683
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 4: yet not risk him too much to injury. It's kind

684
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 4: of a slippery slope if you do too much, I guess.

685
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 4: But he's got to play. So how do you handle

686
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:18,600
Speaker 4: this situation with him? And maybe the other rookie quarterbacks too,

687
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 4: because he didn't get as many snaps I think as

688
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 4: maybe Bryce Young or Anthony Richardson. But you know, they

689
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 4: all got to get better. They all got to play

690
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 4: to get better. What do you think?

691
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 8: Yeah, and we don't know the ins and outs of

692
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 8: everyone else's situation, but you know we can we know

693
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 8: this one.

694
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 5: There were three starters on the offensive.

695
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 8: Line that weren't there that inner training camp as starters,

696
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 8: and so whether by injury or just giving him rest

697
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 8: or giving them the night off, whatever it is, they

698
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 8: weren't there. And that's a clear reflection. I don't care

699
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:53,040
Speaker 8: what's around CJ. It's a clear reflection on him when

700
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 8: you're going against the other team's ones and you're expected

701
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 8: to have ones to face him and pretend tim So

702
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 8: from that standpoint, you're already, in my opinion, going to

703
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 8: get somewhat.

704
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 5: Of a clouded report card.

705
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,719
Speaker 8: Whether it's and I'm saying that in a sense that

706
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 8: it's it's an up and down performance in your first

707
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 8: game as a rookie in the preseason.

708
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 5: I expected that.

709
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 8: But when you mix and there's no Laramie Tunsel, there

710
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 8: no Titus Howard, Scott Quizenberry. You know, that's a lot

711
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,600
Speaker 8: to remove from an offense. I don't care what type

712
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 8: of skilled players are around c J.

713
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:30,840
Speaker 6: Stroud.

714
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,920
Speaker 2: Last year, Dre in the year before that, the three

715
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:38,400
Speaker 2: of us had the joy of watching this run defense

716
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 2: really not act like a run defense. And I know

717
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 2: it's one game into the preseason, but we've seen in

718
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 2: training camp how much different Drake. Do you think this

719
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 2: run defense can be with the additions, with just the

720
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 2: change to Dimiko's being defensive coordinator and head coach?

721
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 1: How you mean?

722
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,160
Speaker 2: Maybe it started, you know, on Thursday night against the Patriots,

723
00:30:58,160 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 2: but just in general, how good do you think this

724
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 2: run defense can be for this group?

725
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 5: I think it can be really good.

726
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 8: And you saw signs of that during that first preseason

727
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 8: game against New England. It was here a team that

728
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 8: can can move it a little bit on the ground

729
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 8: and give you a stiff test. But there was one point,

730
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 8: I think, Johnny was the Patriots had in the first

731
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:23,080
Speaker 8: half seven carries for six yards or something of that magnitude.

732
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 5: I mean, it was crazy.

733
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 8: And it's something that we just weren't used to last year.

734
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 5: It was the Achilles heel of this team.

735
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 8: And I'm guarantee, I guarantee you that it was an

736
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 8: area of this team that Demico focused on first and foremost,

737
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 8: because he knows that you can't win games in this

738
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 8: league if you can't stop the run, and we saw

739
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 8: that up close and personal last year. It is a

740
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 8: painful slow death in the football world and something that

741
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 8: was refreshing to see the other night that they were

742
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 8: able to get that done, and I expected to get

743
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 8: better and better the defense defensive installation that goes in,

744
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 8: the more guys get comfortable within the system and start

745
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 8: to play a little bit faster as well because of

746
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 8: that comfort in his defensive system.

747
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 5: So it's gonna be fun to watch.

748
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 4: Gray joint practices this week, two of them with the Dolphins,

749
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,880
Speaker 4: than the game, then next week two with the Saints,

750
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 4: then the game. They have six hard contact sessions with

751
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 4: other teams in a twelve day period starting Wednesday. Your

752
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 4: thoughts on what's coming up with this team in the

753
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 4: next couple of weeks.

754
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 8: Yeah, I know a lot of guys, you guys are

755
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 8: fans of the joint practices and things of that sort.

756
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 6: I'm not.

757
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 5: Maybe it's the former player in me. I don't know

758
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:41,640
Speaker 5: what it is.

759
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 8: Maybe it's the fan in me that wants to see

760
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 8: it displayed in the preseason because I know that if

761
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,560
Speaker 8: if they're joint practices, there's a pretty good chance I

762
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,320
Speaker 8: may not see Laramie Tunsel this week. There's a pretty

763
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 8: good chance I might I may not see Damian Pierce

764
00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 8: this week for whatever reasons. And obviously you know you're

765
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 8: going to try to protect those players.

766
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 5: But you know, I'm I'm of the feeling that injuries

767
00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 5: can happen at any time. I just like the old

768
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 5: fashioned model.

769
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 8: Of, uh, let's get through the practices and then let's

770
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 8: go compete and leave it all on the field during

771
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 8: the preseason game, because that's what you're calling it. So

772
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:23,040
Speaker 8: it's good work for the players, it's good situational work

773
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 8: for the for the coaches. I'm just a traditionalist where

774
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 8: I like it the old fashion way.

775
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 2: All right, Tran, last year we got a chance to

776
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 2: see two up close. I think you called a couple

777
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 2: of games at Tua in his career. If complete this sentence, Actually,

778
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:39,600
Speaker 2: both of you, I want both of you to complete

779
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 2: this sentence. Drey, start with you. If Tua Tungua bay

780
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 2: Law is healthy in twenty twenty three, dot dot dot

781
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:48,400
Speaker 2: fill in the rest of that sentence.

782
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 3: They compete for the acle.

783
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 5: You told me I was first, and he jumps in there.

784
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I jumped thunder.

785
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 8: I think they are not only would Mark just described,

786
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 8: but I think they're legit Super Bowl contender if he

787
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:05,479
Speaker 8: stays healthy.

788
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,400
Speaker 5: Uh, and and they have health around him.

789
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:08,799
Speaker 7: Uh.

790
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,839
Speaker 8: The Dolphins are scary and they are scary on both

791
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 8: sides of the ball. But they're already off to uh

792
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 8: you know, a bad start from that standpoint, from an

793
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,760
Speaker 8: injury standpoint, with Ramsey on the shelf right now.

794
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 5: Uh, they they are loaded everywhere, and I mean.

795
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:26,040
Speaker 8: It's not just one and two deep, it's one and

796
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 8: one a at a lot of positions, which is what

797
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:30,880
Speaker 8: you try to build to on a football team.

798
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 3: M yeah, it's gonna be fun to watch.

799
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,400
Speaker 4: Uh that AFC East unfold and Aaron Rodgers.

800
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 8: So much speed on that on that team, on the

801
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 8: Dolphins team, if they had a legit running back and

802
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,480
Speaker 8: I mean legit, it's over.

803
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:52,319
Speaker 1: M hmm, Devon baby, Oh yeah, on a chain.

804
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 2: I watch a little bit of that game against the Falcons,

805
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,440
Speaker 2: and a chain caught a couple of passes in the flat.

806
00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:01,319
Speaker 1: Who smokes. I mean that guy's a legit for two

807
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 1: forty guy, I mean.

808
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 8: Every down if he's an that down guy where he's

809
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 8: very nice, you know, down in and down out.

810
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:10,880
Speaker 1: Okay, all right for both of you.

811
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:16,680
Speaker 2: Then the Dolphins then sign Dalvin Cooking that offense, How

812
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 2: does that change the calcul forget.

813
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:19,279
Speaker 5: About it, forget it.

814
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,719
Speaker 8: And I'm shocked that they haven't Uh, he's a Florida guy,

815
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,239
Speaker 8: you know, and so I'm shocked that they hadn't been

816
00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 8: able to sway him to take a little bit less

817
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 8: money to come, you know, with an opportunity to go

818
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,839
Speaker 8: compete for the playoffs and the super Bowl, and you're

819
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 8: the missing piece whatever the marketing ploy is or whatever

820
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 8: the sales pitch is that they want to sell him on.

821
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 5: Uh.

822
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 8: If if he goes there and they stay healthy with Tua,

823
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 8: it's a that's a scary scene in the AFC.

824
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:51,680
Speaker 4: Drey Barring injury, Let's say Ryan Tannehill does not get hurt,

825
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 4: does Will Levis or Malik Willis end up playing in

826
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 4: Nashville this year, or does Hill hang out of the gig?

827
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:02,359
Speaker 8: Now this year, they feel like they've got one more

828
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 8: year with this group with Tannehill to give it at

829
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,879
Speaker 8: least one more run. Now Levis may get some time here,

830
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:13,880
Speaker 8: he'll get a bunch in the preseason. But if you know,

831
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,319
Speaker 8: if they if Tannehill doesn't get injured, they're they're trying.

832
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 8: They're pushing all their their chips to the middle of

833
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 8: the table and they're going to roll the dice and

834
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 8: every other analogy you want to use, but if it

835
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 8: doesn't happen this year for Tennessee in a legit run,

836
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:31,040
Speaker 8: then Tannehill's out and they move on to one of

837
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:32,840
Speaker 8: these two younger quarterbacks.

838
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:36,399
Speaker 4: What did you think of the Titans rotating quarterbacks so

839
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 4: they'd get a series each, they'd keeping I.

840
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 8: Feel about that, man, I can't stand. I can't stand

841
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,600
Speaker 8: that crap. I was about throwing up in my mouth.

842
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 8: What trying to watch that game? Man, That's just horrible.

843
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 8: That's not football. It's horrible.

844
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:52,280
Speaker 5: It is horrible.

845
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 9: And now you know, because you never get a rhythm

846
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,359
Speaker 9: that way, you never get a rhythm uh that way,

847
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:00,479
Speaker 9: and you're, you know, every every other series that going

848
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 9: give me a series, let me run, you know, let

849
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 9: me go, let me play it like a game, a

850
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 9: couple of series in a row, and then let the

851
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:09,160
Speaker 9: other guy go and he can have all he wants.

852
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 8: But I was, you know, I'm trying to show you

853
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,080
Speaker 8: all you need to see within the series that I'm getting.

854
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,120
Speaker 5: I can't stand every other series.

855
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:19,040
Speaker 8: It may as well be every other plate like Spurrier

856
00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 8: used to do with at Florida with Jess and a

857
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:23,080
Speaker 8: couple of.

858
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:25,440
Speaker 5: Guys down there. That was horrible in and of itself.

859
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,600
Speaker 4: Wait, he did it with Rex and did it with Berlin, right, No,

860
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:31,239
Speaker 4: he did it with Noah Brandeis and Doug Johnson in

861
00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:35,720
Speaker 4: nineteen ninety seven against Florida State, each in every play,

862
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 4: and then beat for you.

863
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 8: Again with Palmer because yeah, I remember Jesse telling the story. Yeah,

864
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:45,320
Speaker 8: and so you know that that is that's horrible, horrible.

865
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, what that was?

866
00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:49,759
Speaker 8: Spurrier played the position. He would hate it too.

867
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 4: That was the talk radio equivalent of home run derby

868
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,880
Speaker 4: pitch where I just lobbed it in there over the plate.

869
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 3: I knew Drey was gonna drill that one.

870
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 4: So so there we go the road quarterbacks.

871
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,560
Speaker 2: All right, I'll ask this one for both of you

872
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:05,400
Speaker 2: as well. And Mark and I just talked about this,

873
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 2: So Dre, I want you to hit on this. What's

874
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:12,800
Speaker 2: the toughest position cut right now? With the Texans? And

875
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 2: I know I know Dre we talked about. You know,

876
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:17,279
Speaker 2: injuries can solve some things which we don't want to,

877
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:18,279
Speaker 2: but it can.

878
00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:18,640
Speaker 6: You know.

879
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:21,760
Speaker 2: Obviously we've already lost got Quaesenberries, so that moved Juice

880
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 2: into that starting spot. But as you start going through

881
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,560
Speaker 2: this roster, I think for the first time in a while.

882
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:28,839
Speaker 2: I'm looking at it going I think there are some

883
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 2: really difficult cuts on this team, and I think there

884
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:34,520
Speaker 2: are gonna be some guys getting cut that will get

885
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 2: picked up by teams elsewhere. What position dred do you

886
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:42,400
Speaker 2: think has the toughest cut right now, all things considered.

887
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:45,680
Speaker 5: Oh man, that's that's a great question.

888
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 8: And as you're asking and I'm scanning the depth chart

889
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:51,879
Speaker 8: trying to figure it out, I think maybe running back

890
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:56,560
Speaker 8: because there's some there's some explosive young players there.

891
00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 5: I also think defensive line.

892
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,000
Speaker 8: Believe it or not, is going to be a tough,

893
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:06,239
Speaker 8: tough cut because there's some really really good young inside

894
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 8: players that are, you know, having a struggle and learn

895
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 8: a new defense as well as trying to earn.

896
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:17,839
Speaker 5: A roster spot to stick around. And then maybe linebacker

897
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 5: as well.

898
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:20,799
Speaker 8: There's a lot of good competition going on at that

899
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 8: spot those spots as well. So those are the three

900
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 8: areas I would focus on right now. That's assuming that

901
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,400
Speaker 8: you have everything else shired up and the players that

902
00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:32,800
Speaker 8: you want at other positions, because that could easily happen

903
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 8: where another players cut in Detroit and for instance, and

904
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:38,799
Speaker 8: then all of a sudden you find him on the

905
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:43,040
Speaker 8: Texans roster leading into uh TO opening days. So I

906
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 8: think a lot, a lot of unfinished business and a

907
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 8: long way to go. But h though, I really really

908
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 8: like the competition that's going on at running back.

909
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 2: You want to check out the rest of that conversation

910
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 2: with Dre, go to our Houston Texas podcast page and

911
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:00,879
Speaker 2: you can get it all right there, man some great

912
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:04,839
Speaker 2: stuff with Indie Kulou earlier and our man Andre where

913
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,880
Speaker 2: we get back, Well, a former cowboy is now a Patriot?

914
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 2: How will that go? Talking about that? That next the Texans

915
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 2: All Access we go on find a second in this

916
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:14,840
Speaker 2: edition of Texans All Access. Glad you've been with me,

917
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 2: John Harris, football and a sideline reporter if you're Houston Texans.

918
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:21,360
Speaker 2: And as we go around the NFL, the biggest story,

919
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:24,880
Speaker 2: I guess is coming out of New England where the

920
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:29,040
Speaker 2: New England Patriots have a new running back and his

921
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:34,160
Speaker 2: name is Ezekiel Elliott. A one year deal to join

922
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 2: the Patriots. Looks like the money is not overly expensive

923
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:42,399
Speaker 2: for the Patriots, and so now you're gonna get Mac

924
00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:46,680
Speaker 2: Jones a lot of help, Romandre Stevenson running back Ezekiel

925
00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:49,480
Speaker 2: Elliot at running back, and that is going to be

926
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 2: ground and pound.

927
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 1: Now.

928
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,040
Speaker 2: I don't know who's gonna catch the football for them,

929
00:40:56,600 --> 00:41:00,719
Speaker 2: but if that team wants to just hand teams into

930
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:04,560
Speaker 2: submission and let Mac Jones throw it fifteen times a game,

931
00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:07,080
Speaker 2: that might actually be the way they want to do it.

932
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 2: They have a defense. I think that's gonna be pretty salty.

933
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,440
Speaker 2: You know, we saw a couple of guys, but not

934
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:15,439
Speaker 2: not a ton. You throw a key On White into

935
00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:18,359
Speaker 2: the mix with Josh Uche, the guys they have up front,

936
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:22,320
Speaker 2: Davon Godshaw, Lawrence guy. That's probably gonna be a ground

937
00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,719
Speaker 2: and pound type of team. And that's probably how they're

938
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:27,200
Speaker 2: gonna do it in the AFC East and make those

939
00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:30,920
Speaker 2: teams like it. I guess now they don't get much

940
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:34,840
Speaker 2: out of Mac Well could maybe won't matter who's that

941
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,839
Speaker 2: running back, but right now it does Ramondre Stevenson. We'll

942
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,520
Speaker 2: get the bulk of the carries. But bearing the leaders

943
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 2: I just did for the last minute. Is Ezekiel Elliott

944
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:47,719
Speaker 2: going to the New England Patriots one year about three million.

945
00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:49,600
Speaker 2: I guess there's some incentives in there as well, But

946
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:52,120
Speaker 2: Ezekiel Elliott and Ramadre Stevens is gonna be the one

947
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 2: to punch up in New England for Mac Jones, Bill

948
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:59,680
Speaker 2: O'Bryant and that Patriots offense. I remember hearing Belichick talk

949
00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:01,759
Speaker 2: about this a while back, or somebody talking about as

950
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:03,719
Speaker 2: a referred to Belichick and saying that one of the

951
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:07,440
Speaker 2: things that Belichick loved to do was find inefficiencies in

952
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:09,720
Speaker 2: the way that teams are doing things like, all right, teams,

953
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:14,760
Speaker 2: are you know, playing a bunch of light David's lineman

954
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:16,440
Speaker 2: will run the ball. Oh, they're playing a bunch of

955
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:18,239
Speaker 2: heavy guys. Okay, we're gonna throw it. That was kind

956
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 2: of a zig when you zag, and maybe this is

957
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 2: them zigging when everybody else is zagging all the throwing

958
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:25,319
Speaker 2: games around the Leo passing that's going on. Maybe they

959
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,319
Speaker 2: just go back to old school ground and pound. We'll

960
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 2: see if it works. But Ezekiel Elliott is a New

961
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 2: England Patriot. And that is the end of the show.
