He was there when 11 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:26,800 Speaker 2: Andre Johnson got the knock on the door the news 12 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,480 Speaker 2: that he was going to the Hall of Fame in Canton. 13 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:30,639 Speaker 1: Can't wait for that. 14 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,560 Speaker 2: We have a lot to cover obviously here, super Bowl 15 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:37,920 Speaker 2: off season, accolades, Texans to do's a whole bunch of stuff. 16 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:41,279 Speaker 2: Mark vandermir and John Harris with you, Johnny, Here we 17 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:45,880 Speaker 2: go another adventure, will we ever? You're gone really No, 18 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:46,879 Speaker 2: not really. 19 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: And we did podcasts and everything like that. Never really gone. 20 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 3: We're just back on our slot at six to seven. Yeah, yeah, 21 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 3: so that'd be good. So we're glad to be back 22 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 3: in that way. So for us, twenty twenty four starts now. 23 00:00:58,720 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, it does. 24 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 2: For the whole league, I think the league year does 25 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 2: not officially begin until almost a month from now with 26 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 2: the March free agency period and all of that. That's 27 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 2: the official start of the league year. It's kind of 28 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,119 Speaker 2: a fiscal year of sorts as far as player acquisition, 29 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 2: and everybody on the start of the year has got 30 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: to be under the cap. Right now, you're all over 31 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 2: the place with the cap because you're in a transition 32 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 2: mode and you have futures, contracts and different things happening. 33 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 2: But that day, everybody's got to be under the cap, 34 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 2: and then you got to deal with it as far 35 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 2: as your free agent acquisitions and however else you handle 36 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 2: things going into the campaign. And there's a lot of 37 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 2: work to do the Texans with almost three dozen free 38 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,680 Speaker 2: agents as they've got to figure out how to build 39 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 2: this twenty twenty four squad. And I want to start 40 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 2: right here, Johnny, because we all watch the Super Bowl 41 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 2: and this note popped up last night and it wasn't 42 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 2: one of those things you slide under the door. People 43 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 2: are aware of this, but everyone's talking about the Chiefs dynasty, 44 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 2: the Chiefs dynasty, and it is a dynasty, but the 45 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 2: Chiefs are not just the Chiefs that you saw in 46 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. And you and I have talked about this. 47 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 2: This team has really turned over. The last time they 48 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 2: beat the forty nine ers, for example, Chris Jones was 49 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 2: the only returning defensive starter from that team, right, I mean, 50 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 2: it's amazing think about it right there. And offensively they're 51 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 2: completely overhauled as well. But you see Mahomes, you see Kelsey, 52 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 2: you figure it's the same team. 53 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: It's not. 54 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 2: It's not even close to the same team, other than 55 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 2: the quarterback, which is a big exception, and Andy Reid 56 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 2: and the rest of the staff members who might remain. 57 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 2: But it's so interesting to me how rosters turnover, and 58 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 2: this Texans roster is going to turn over right along 59 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 2: with the rest of the league, in fact, more than 60 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 2: most from a year to year basis, because they had 61 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 2: all those one year free agents. 62 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 3: Absolutely, And I think what ends up, you know, with 63 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 3: dynastic teams or however you want to look at it. 64 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: Good teams that stay together for a while. 65 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:56,399 Speaker 3: You have this core, well in Kansas City, Kelsey, Chris Jones, Mahomes, 66 00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 3: that was the core. That part stayed together. But defensive 67 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 3: line turned itself over. I mean when they won that 68 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 3: Super Bowl in twenty nineteen, there's not a guy from 69 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 3: that group, Mitchell Schwartz and Mitchell Schwartz and Eric Fisher 70 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 3: gone in their place, Donovan Smith and Jwan Taylor. You know, 71 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 3: Joe Toney they went and got before the twenty two season. 72 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 3: Creed Humphrey they got in the draft. Trey Smith they 73 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 3: got in a draft. You know, they reset the entire 74 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 3: offensive line. But to me, what changed for the Chiefs 75 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 3: was defensively, they got better and better and better young 76 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 3: and to that point, that secondary, and I know Justin 77 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 3: Reid is in that secondary, and I mean I know 78 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,839 Speaker 3: that Justin was a free agent signing, but they add 79 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 3: a bunch of rookies to that secondary along with Lagerius Snead. 80 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 3: Lagerius Sneed. We saw his first game was twenty twenty 81 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 3: in the COVID year. Uh yeah, the COVID year. All 82 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 3: of a sudden, here comes Lagerius Sneed. He comes in. 83 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 3: He's playing some nickels, some safety, some corners, all over 84 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 3: the place. But then they draft Jalen Watson in the 85 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 3: seventh round. They drafted Trent McDuffie. McDuffie good. McDuffie might 86 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 3: have been the best player in the field, might have 87 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 3: set holding call. He was incredible it's absolutely incredible. But 88 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 3: the Chiefs defensively what they Yes, there's Chris Jones, but 89 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 3: it feels like to me, the Chiefs are kind of 90 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 3: that the whole is greater than some of its parts, 91 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 3: and the parts are pretty good. But together they play very, 92 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 3: very well. And you obviously have Chris Jones up front, 93 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 3: and he made some incredible plays. But you've added Carl Loftis, 94 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 3: you know, a man who didn't play last night, but 95 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 3: he's been a part of that. With Carl Loftis, with 96 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 3: Chris Jones, you know, then Mike Panel plays, yeah, and 97 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 3: it's like, man, big dude. They just find guys. And 98 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 3: then they found the guy in the middle, Nick Bolton. 99 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 3: They got the right guy there. They added justin reat safety, 100 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 3: which he can do a lot of different things, and 101 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 3: then they drafted. One year, they drafted their entire offensive line. 102 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 3: The next year they drafted their entire secondary. So now 103 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 3: they got a bunch of young dudes in the secondary. 104 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 3: They've got an offensive line that's gonna gorow together, and 105 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 3: that's probably a team that sticks together for a little while. 106 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 3: And of course they've got the ultimate Mahomes. I sent 107 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 3: you this text last night. I was just sitting on 108 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 3: a couch rewatching the game. You know, I just finished 109 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 3: my tenth year on the sideline, Yeah, son with you. 110 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 3: And for ten of those ten years, seven have there's 111 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 3: been a Super Bowl win by Brady or Mahomes. Seven 112 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 3: seven to ten. Seven of the ten seasons, Brady or 113 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 3: Mahomes have won it. 114 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,279 Speaker 2: All right, So the other three would be Rams, Eagles 115 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 2: with Foles and who else am I missing? Broncos with 116 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 2: Peyton Mancos, they go more than that, it's Brady or Mahomes. 117 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 2: Eight of the ten Super Bowls have included a Brady 118 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 2: and or a Mahomes. Yeah, and the only two that 119 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,559 Speaker 2: weren't were Bengals Rams and Peyton Manning and Cam Newton. 120 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 2: Eight of the ten on the sideline have included a 121 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 2: Brady or Mahomes. Now, we got rid of one of them, right, 122 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 2: but now we got to live through the other one. 123 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 2: How about Brady goes through early part of his career, 124 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 2: it's Peyton Manning and Tom Brady right right right now. 125 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 2: He got Roethlisberger in there. He got Breeze for one. 126 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 2: But Roethlisberger sprinkles in there. And I'm not going to 127 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 2: go over all of them. But then Brady overlaps with 128 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 2: Mahomes right because he beat Mahome right in a Super Bowl. 129 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 2: All this stuff is Mahomes the greatest quarterback ever? We 130 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 2: literally have head to head, which doesn't matter. I know 131 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,359 Speaker 2: when you talk about quarterback talent, people slow down with 132 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 2: Mahomes being the greatest quarterback ever. 133 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 1: Might be the best talent. I don't know. 134 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 2: We'll see where the career goes. Let me put it 135 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 2: to you this way, folks. If he retired today, is 136 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 2: the greatest quarterback ever? 137 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: Well? Probably not. Then let it play out. Okay, let 138 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 1: it play out. 139 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 2: I mean, I would assume that he's going to be 140 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 2: back on this stage at some point, maybe soon, But 141 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 2: you can't assume anything. 142 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 1: In this league, as we all know. 143 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 2: So let's let it play out, and we just describe 144 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 2: to you the hard work they had to do to 145 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 2: continue to build this team around him, to keep this 146 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 2: thing going because eventually Kelsey stops and that was rumored 147 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 2: to be happening anyway, But eventually he retires. Mahome's going 148 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 2: to stick around for a long time. Is he going 149 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 2: to stick around as long as Brady? Is he going 150 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,679 Speaker 2: to stick around long enough to get seven Super Bowls. 151 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 2: I don't know the answers to these questions. Just let 152 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 2: it play out. I know it's all sports talk conversation. Though, 153 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 2: Who's the goat? Brady's the goat? Okay, can we just 154 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 2: decide this? Can we just declare this? Can we just 155 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 2: slow down with the Mahomes being the goat? 156 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:07,119 Speaker 1: Talk? Now? 157 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 2: Mahomes is an incredible talent. And I don't know how 158 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 2: you felt during that game, Johnny, but I felt like 159 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 2: when the Niners were not able to pull away, when 160 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 2: they had the horrible punt off the guy's foot situation, 161 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 2: I just thought, now, not your night, It's not your night. 162 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 2: He's gonna have the ball at some point and he's 163 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 2: gonna make you pay. 164 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: And he did. Yep. Absolutely. 165 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 3: You know what this reminds me of thinking of Mahomes, 166 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 3: It reminds me of Tiger when Tiger was winning all 167 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 3: those major championships and everybody was. 168 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: Like, oh, he's gonna blow away. 169 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 3: Jack Nicholas Jack Nixlell said eighteen major wins and just 170 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 3: was steady throughout his career. I mean Jack was the guy. 171 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 3: I mean, he was the Tom Brady of golf in 172 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 3: the seventies. Mean, he's incredible hit eighteen Majors. Tiger is 173 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,239 Speaker 3: doing a Tiger slam. He's got all four trophies at once, 174 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden, yep, the wheels fell 175 00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 3: off the wagon. 176 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: Two thousand and nine. It stops. Wheels fell off the wag. 177 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 2: No, he wins the Extra Masters, but Tiger will be 178 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 2: the first to tell you he's not going to catch 179 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 2: Jack at this point. And Jack had all those second 180 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 2: place finishes as well. Yeah, so second is tough in 181 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 2: those majors. 182 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 3: So that's kind of to me, a closer comparison in 183 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 3: some sense is kind of Tiger wouldn't do it because everybody, Oh, 184 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 3: Tiger is going to blow that record away. Hold on 185 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 3: you just never know, you know, like you said, let 186 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 3: it play out. 187 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 2: But it also works this way because who's the better talent? 188 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: Right? It's hard. 189 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 2: I mean, Tiger might be the greatest talent ever, right, 190 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 2: Jack has the most Majors, Brady has the most Super Bowls. 191 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 1: Mahomes might be. 192 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 2: More quote talented exactly, but I have to give Brady 193 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 2: the credit here of being mentally talented and physically talented. 194 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 2: We've seen better athletes a quarterback all over the place, 195 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 2: which speaks to his ability to play the position, though 196 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 2: he smartly has played the position. And we talked about 197 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 2: how the Chiefs roster has rolled over. How many times 198 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 2: did the Patriots roster sure with Brady in there? Hey, 199 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 2: it's seven times? How many times had he turned? He 200 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 2: played with a thousand players or whatever? Right, I might 201 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 2: not be far off with that number. By the way, 202 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 2: how many players did he play with and win championships 203 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 2: or at least participate in Super Bowls with? 204 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: It's crazy, Yeah, there's no question. 205 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 3: And that's kind of why the Tiger thing popped up, 206 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 3: because Tiger did things in golf that nobody in golf 207 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 3: had done before. Maybe there was a guy that was 208 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 3: talented or whatever could maybe, but Tiger had it all. 209 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,319 Speaker 3: Mahomes seems to have that at the quarterback position. If 210 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 3: Mahomes continues on his trajectory. Okay, here's where to me 211 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 3: the kind of the analogy breaks down in some sense, 212 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 3: or the comparison breaks down in some sense. Tiger, when 213 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 3: he was winning all those tournaments, it felt like golf 214 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 3: was strong, but maybe not to the level it was 215 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 3: in the seventies when Jack was winning all those championships. 216 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 3: I mean, the heavyweights that were in the golfing division. 217 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 3: I look at Mahomes and look at the AFC and think, Okay, 218 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 3: there's still Josh Allen in Buffalo. What if they get 219 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 3: a couple of pieces, they're still Joe Burrow went healthy 220 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 3: in Cincinnati, the guy that's beaten, you know Burrow, Burrow 221 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 3: that's beaten. 222 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,959 Speaker 1: You know Mahomes. In the playoffs, there are all these 223 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: other teams. 224 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 3: Obviously you've got us, and hopefully we can be in 225 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 3: that mix and we'll go to Kansas City in twenty 226 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 3: twenty four, which should be awfully fun. 227 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 1: I had this. 228 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 3: I had this epiphany last night. I was walking to 229 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 3: my car. I went to go watch the game at 230 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 3: my friend Don's house, and I was walking to the 231 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 3: car and I. 232 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: Went, They're gonna make us that opening game again. 233 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 3: We are gonna be that opening game against the Chiefs 234 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,200 Speaker 3: because we go to Kansas City. Hopefully we're not hopefully 235 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 3: we're not won that game, won that game, but I 236 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 3: just I just have such PTSD from the last time 237 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 3: of being there. 238 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 1: It was just awful. 239 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 3: I know it'll be different, at least I hope it's 240 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 3: gonna be different, which by oh gosh, I just had. 241 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: This thought what. 242 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 3: The Chiefs and Niners played in their white and their 243 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 3: red jerseys in January of twenty twenty and the two 244 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 3: presidential candidates at the time were Trump and Biden, and 245 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 3: then Covid hit. Oh my god, it's like the same thing. 246 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 3: It's like twenty twenty four is the same thing. We 247 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 3: have Covid hit again. 248 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 1: I'm done. 249 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 3: Oh no, I'm done, Like Kelly went there. No, but 250 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 3: I mean it's like he was moving at directions. Hopefully 251 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 3: we're not gonna have to happen, but Mahomes has to 252 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 3: traverse a pretty tough AFC. But to me, the NFC 253 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 3: is not quite there yet. Now. Obviously he's faced he's 254 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 3: faced the forty nine ers twice. But you have to 255 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 3: get through the tough AFC right now, and so that 256 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 3: might be the one thing that kind of hold him back. 257 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 3: He's gotten through it. He got through in the toughest 258 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 3: way this year. Can he continue to do that? What 259 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 3: happens if Kelsey retires, What happens if Big Red retires? 260 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 3: How does that change things as they go through there? 261 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 3: I mean, obviously they're gonna want to keep it together 262 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 3: for this last well this time to get a three peat, 263 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 3: which no other team has done, so I would love 264 00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,719 Speaker 3: love to knock them off that perch, kind of like 265 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 3: the four nineers got knocked off. That was a big 266 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 3: deal for the Giants back in the nineteen ninety forty 267 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 3: nine Ers are going for three. They played both their 268 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 3: playoff games, or play their playoff games at home. Giants 269 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,679 Speaker 3: had to go out there, and Belichick, as a defense 270 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 3: coordinators put it on him, wouldn't allow him to even 271 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 3: get the. 272 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 2: Chel playing quarterback with sims Her. Avoid the three peat. 273 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 2: Avoid the three peat. But look, Mahomes, I know people 274 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 2: want to jump on that bandwagon. That's what people in 275 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,199 Speaker 2: this business do. I'm with you. Give it some time. 276 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 2: You know, we saw what happened to Tiger. I don't 277 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 2: expect that to happen to Patrick Mahomes. But let it 278 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 2: play out. 279 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 3: But that dude right now, And somebody said, this is 280 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 3: the way I've been thinking because earlier, I was in 281 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 3: the kitchen on Saturday. I was trying to find something 282 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 3: to watch, just kind of have on as I was cooking, 283 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 3: and so I turned on The Last Dance. 284 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I got. 285 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 3: To the part where bj Armstrong essentially made the comment 286 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 3: that Michael Jordan quit playing basketball, and he went into 287 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 3: Jordan mode, which meant Jordan knew he had to win 288 00:12:59,200 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 3: the game. 289 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 1: How was he going to do it. 290 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 3: It didn't matter whether it was a bucket, it was 291 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 3: going to be a bucket, a steal, an assist, driving 292 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 3: dish to somebody. He went into Jordan mode to win 293 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 3: the game. That's the way it feels like with Mahomes. 294 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 3: Nothing can be right during the game. And yet fourth 295 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 3: and one, he runs that little rpo for a first down, 296 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 3: has another run on the drive, another scramble. Later on, 297 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,079 Speaker 3: he you know, makes a throw to somebody. It can 298 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 3: look awful for a while. I mean the interception. Jyry 299 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 3: Brown was like, that's it. Right at the beginning of 300 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,839 Speaker 3: the second half. I thought, that's it. They've broken him. 301 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: Now. The Niners have got to take this thing over. 302 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 3: And they didn't against him, didn't, and he Mahomes went 303 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 3: into Mahomes mode. He quit playing football and he went 304 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 3: into Mahomes mode. And that's what you had to avoid. 305 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 3: I said to my buddy, I said, you have to 306 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 3: Mahomes proof this game. You cannot go into that fourth quarter. 307 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 3: You cannot go into that fourth quarter and allow him 308 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 3: to do something at the end of the game. 309 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 1: That beats you. 310 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I felt like the Niners still had a shot. 311 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 2: But when you make it a mahomes Time situation, he's 312 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 2: going to rise to the occasion. You've got Brock Purdy 313 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 2: on the other side. All right, A couple of things 314 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 2: about the Super Bowl, A couple more things before we 315 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 2: move on to Texans talk and John McLean getting in here. 316 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 2: Brock Purty take, Are you ready for my Brock party? 317 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: Take? 318 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 4: Oh? 319 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 2: Okay, So, Brock Purdy I think is a good quarterback. 320 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 2: There's no doubt about it. This guy's a good quarterback. 321 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 2: Here's my question though, and it might be more of 322 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 2: a rhetorical question, but I'm always going to wonder, is 323 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 2: Rock Purdy as good as they hoped Trey Lance would be? Now, 324 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 2: let's go back. They had Jimmy Garoppolo and the last 325 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 2: time they played. Is Rock Purdy is good as they 326 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 2: hoped Trey Lance would be? I don't think he is. 327 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 2: They had Garoppolo who played well for them, not amazing, 328 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 2: but well, And they went to a Super Bowl with 329 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 2: Garoppolo and they could have would have should have won 330 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 2: that one. Garoppolo missed a big deep throw along the 331 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 2: way you remember that one. The point is this, they 332 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 2: felt like, we got to go get Trey Lance, and 333 00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 2: they pushed their chips to the center of the table 334 00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 2: to get Trey Lance in the draft, and obviously it 335 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 2: didn't work out, but they got lucky or fortunate, or 336 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 2: they were wise enough to use a draft pick on 337 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 2: Brock Purty, whatever you want to describe it. 338 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 1: As. 339 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 2: They had Rock Purty and he's played well enough to 340 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 2: get them to an NFC Championship game and a Super Bowl, 341 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 2: but they haven't been able to get over the hump yet. 342 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 1: Now he's only in year two. 343 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 2: But that's my question, and I don't know if anybody 344 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 2: can really answer it or if they would answer it truthfully, 345 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 2: because I think they felt like with Trey Lance, there 346 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 2: was a ceiling that Brock party cannot get close to it. 347 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 2: Not that Lance himself can get to it, but they 348 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 2: hoped he could. Otherwise they wouldn't have invested what they 349 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 2: did in Trey Lance while they still let Jimmy Garoppolo. 350 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 2: And I know injuries played a part in that decision 351 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 2: as well to go after Trey Lance, but that's the thing. 352 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 2: They might be sitting there today thinking we love Brock Purdy. 353 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 2: He's great, he's done a really good job for us, 354 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 2: But man, we need a higher ceiling at quarterback than 355 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 2: he is able to get to. 356 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 1: And maybe he can get to it. But that's my question. 357 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 3: They thought Trey Lance was a moss Arati and they 358 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 3: ended up with a Ford F one fifty. 359 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: Okay, that's I mean, real solid? Is rock Purty? Right? 360 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: Isn't brock Purty like real solid? Real solid? 361 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 3: There have been times where a Ford F one fifty 362 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 3: can get the job done, but when you're facing Lamborghini, 363 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 3: you need a Maserati. 364 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 1: And now I agree with you, absolutely agree with you. 365 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 3: I think brock Purty played the forty nine Ers did 366 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 3: not lose that game because of what brock Purty did 367 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 3: or didn't do. 368 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 1: I thought Perty made some really nice throws in that game. 369 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 3: I thought his protection broke down on him a couple 370 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 3: of key times, right, And you know there was the 371 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 3: one when it was nineteen you know, sixteen sixteen, he's 372 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 3: got third and four and they blitz McDuffie and nobody 373 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 3: accounts for him. 374 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 1: He's got to throw it right away. Yep. That was 375 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: a killer. 376 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 3: And then nineteen nineteen overtime they're down it's third and 377 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 3: four and they bring to they bring another blitz or 378 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 3: they blow the protection and Chris Jones is because Schotz 379 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 3: was like, wait a second, you didn't block me, okay, 380 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 3: and then he is directly in the face not. 381 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: Count for that. That was nuts. 382 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 2: They had the play, they had the right call. Other 383 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 2: than you know, here's what in those situations. 384 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,120 Speaker 3: Here's what happens in all those situations is you get 385 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 3: up to the line of scrimmage and it's some sort 386 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 3: of slide protection or protection or whatever it is, and 387 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 3: you're counting guys and you're like, oh, we've got three 388 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:24,719 Speaker 3: over here. We got okay, well, this guy's showing well, 389 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 3: this guy's the mic. No, no, no, this guy's the mic. 390 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 3: And you well, wait, this guy's the mic over here, 391 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 3: so wait a second, we need to slide over here. 392 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:31,439 Speaker 3: And then a guy sees something like a wait a second, 393 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 3: this is the guy I need to go over here. 394 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,199 Speaker 3: So that guy goes into business for himself, thinking okay, well, 395 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:36,880 Speaker 3: I'm gonna say this play because I see this guy 396 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 3: going over here and I need to go over to 397 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:39,360 Speaker 3: this side. And all of a sudden, you go look 398 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 3: up and go, hey, he's the best player on the 399 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,360 Speaker 3: field tonight. You might want to block him, right you 400 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 3: just you get into all that minutia and then you 401 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 3: forget about Wait a second, that guy's sitting right in 402 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 3: front of me. 403 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: I might need to block him, and they didn't. So 404 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: is this true? Though? 405 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 2: Both defenses, both teams would have been really happy if 406 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 2: you said to them before the game, Hey, you're gonna 407 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 2: hold them to nineteen regulation? 408 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:04,880 Speaker 1: Will you keep that going in? I'm both put taking 409 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 1: it going in. 410 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 3: I'll take my chances at score in twenty absolutely nineteen points. 411 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 3: I'm giving them nineteen points. Both sides would have been like, 412 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 3: we win that game for sure. Here's my other thing. 413 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 2: You're ready for my other take on this. This is 414 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 2: not why they lost, and I don't know if it 415 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,679 Speaker 2: means they win. But there's no way I take the 416 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 2: ball in overtime with the rules the way they are 417 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 2: in playoff overtime, where we're each going to get a possession, 418 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 2: no matter what, there's no way I take the ball. 419 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,639 Speaker 2: And I know what he said about the third possession, 420 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 2: No I need How is that third possession tasting this morning? Yeah, coach, 421 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 2: you enjoyed that third possession because you didn't get a 422 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 2: third possession. You know why, because you took the ball 423 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 2: first and you said, all right, field goal has to 424 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,719 Speaker 2: be enough right here. No, if you get it second 425 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 2: and Mahomes has already punched it in, now you know 426 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,880 Speaker 2: we need a touchdown, folks. And if we get that touchdown, 427 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 2: we could possibly go for two and win the game 428 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 2: right there, or play another possession and take our chances 429 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 2: on stopping Mahomes that way. 430 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 3: I think there are two things at work. Number one, 431 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 3: I do think that was probably part of discussion, is 432 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 3: getting that third possession, I do think. And the way 433 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 3: the game had gone, you think about it once it 434 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 3: got to sixteen thirteen, it was field goal, field goal, 435 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 3: field goal, field goal, I don't know. 436 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: Anyways it went. 437 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 3: After the Niners scored to make it sixteen thirteen, it 438 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 3: missed the extra pointer and get it blocked. Chiefs kick 439 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,440 Speaker 3: field goal. We're not a skicking field goal chief skiing 440 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 3: field goal, so you're kind of on this field goal run. 441 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 3: Neither team was driving all the way to the end zone. 442 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 1: So but they didn't have to because the extra point 443 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: was earlier. 444 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 3: I know, I know, And that changed to me. That 445 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 3: block actually goal changed everything changed. Everything allowed the Chiefs 446 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 3: kicking field would decided sixteen instead of having to go 447 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 3: for it. Had they had to go for it, and 448 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 3: they don't get it, they just gotten pressure on the Homes. 449 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 3: If they don't get it, who knows what happens at 450 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 3: that point. So there's a lot of different ways that 451 00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 3: plays off. You don't miss the extra point, but I 452 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,679 Speaker 3: you can sort of see that thinking like, Okay, if 453 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 3: we keep kicking field goals, we'll get it back in 454 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 3: that third possession, kick another field goal, win this thing 455 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 3: twenty five to twenty two. But the second part of 456 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 3: this is I think his defense was gassed, and I 457 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 3: think he felt like, I've got to get them off 458 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 3: the field. 459 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 1: So I think if you. 460 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 3: Combine all of that, that's probably what he went Now, 461 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,640 Speaker 3: maybe maybe not, maybe he didn't think his defense's gas. 462 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,400 Speaker 3: I think that was a part of it. I think 463 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 3: that was definitely a part of it. But of course 464 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 3: he's gonna look back and go, man, you again, Mahomes 465 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 3: proof the game. Don't give Mahomes an opportunity because to me, 466 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,400 Speaker 3: even if the Niners have scored and kicked extra point, 467 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 3: which is what you're gonna do if you scored, that 468 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 3: situation right. Let's say they complete the pass, HOWU catches it, 469 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 3: they go up twenty five nineteen, they're gonna kick it at 470 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 3: twenty six nineteen. You're still outlining for the Chiefs what 471 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 3: they have to do. Yeah, And as soon as you 472 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 3: outline for Mahomes what he has to do when he's 473 00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 3: in Mahomes. 474 00:20:58,520 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: Mode, you're done. 475 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:03,119 Speaker 3: Because I think the Chiefs go down to score angle 476 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 3: for two, and because they have such creative play calling 477 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:07,919 Speaker 3: on their two point plays, they would have gotten it 478 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 3: in one twenty seven to twenty six because you the 479 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,439 Speaker 3: Chiefs would not have allowed the forty nine ers to 480 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 3: go get the ball third time. That's the other thing 481 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 3: that Shaneahan didn't factor in. The Chiefs aren't gonna allow 482 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 3: you to get to the third possession because they're gonna 483 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 3: go for two. 484 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: They're gonna go for two. They're gonna end it right there. 485 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 3: Why give it back to the forty nine ers at 486 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,399 Speaker 3: that point in your defense's gas. 487 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,400 Speaker 1: I can't guarant them an opportunity. 488 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I can't guarantee that he might feel like 489 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:34,120 Speaker 2: kicking it. Let's go ahead, keep playing because worst worst 490 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 2: case as you lose, but. 491 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,640 Speaker 3: You have Patrick Mahomes you're two yards away, or you're 492 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 3: gonna put your tired defense back on the field and 493 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:42,360 Speaker 3: expect them to keep the forty nine ers from kicking 494 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 3: a field goal. 495 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: These are tough decisions, very tough. 496 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,639 Speaker 3: That's why, that's why they get paid a lot of 497 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:47,879 Speaker 3: a lot of freaking money. 498 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 2: Running high Travis Kelcey bumping that head coach and yelling 499 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:56,919 Speaker 2: at him me worthy, of course, that was nuts. It 500 00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 2: was crazy stuff, very entertaining. What I don't understand. I 501 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 2: get it. It's not an offensive fireworks show first half, obviously, 502 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 2: scoreless first quarter. Does that mean it's not entertaining? I 503 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 2: was entertained. I'm entertained by football. I'm maybe I've been 504 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 2: in the AFC South too long and seeing too many 505 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,879 Speaker 2: ugly it out games sixteen to. 506 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: Ten, those kinds of things. 507 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 2: We've been in a lot of those, Johnny, where it's 508 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 2: just like grind it out. But that's football too, right, Yeah, 509 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 2: you know, one, nothing in baseball is something. 510 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: It's it's a pitcher's duel. 511 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 2: Sometimes it's a defensive struggle, if you will, and you're 512 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 2: playing chess that way. 513 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: That's part of football. 514 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 3: I think with the Chiefs, what's what's become Increasingly interesting 515 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 3: to me is the fact that the Chiefs, to your 516 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 3: point earlier by resetting the roster, was they went out 517 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 3: and reset the roster, and they have this fundar Kin 518 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,879 Speaker 3: deck quarterback. They have made be the greatest tight end 519 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 3: of all time. They've got this jet, you know, Tyreek Hill. Know, 520 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 3: they've got all these offensive weapons, and they've just been 521 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 3: pouring points, you know, exploding scoreboards and all that. And 522 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 3: they went, you know what, let's improve this defense. We 523 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 3: got to find ways to improve this defense. And then 524 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 3: each year they got better on defense, to a point 525 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 3: where they were a top five defense this year. And 526 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:29,880 Speaker 3: they then they found essentially by having that defense, they 527 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,719 Speaker 3: found another way to win games. It wasn't just mahomes 528 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 3: is gonna put the cape on and we're gonna go win. 529 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 1: I'm glad you brought this. That's incredible. 530 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 2: Look how many times they struggled this year. It was 531 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 2: very Patriot life. Remember all those Patriots seasons where all 532 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 2: they're done losing to Kansas City the way they did 533 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 2: those things, and then they end up doing well anyway, 534 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,680 Speaker 2: getting to the Super Bowls, very often winning it. You 535 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 2: can't keep track, but that points out how when you're 536 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 2: the hunted. You're the big target like the Chiefs are. 537 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 2: You might struggle sometime, they know, just get there. They've 538 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 2: never been on the road with the Mahomes bunch. They 539 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:05,640 Speaker 2: went on the road this year. 540 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: They beat the. 541 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 2: Dolphins in the Ice Bowl at home. Then they beat 542 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 2: the Bills, and they beat the Ravens, then they beat 543 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 2: the forty nine Ers. Phenomenal postseason run for them all right, 544 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 2: John McClain.

Awesome, good evening. 562 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 4: I did Good Evening. Thank you guys for running it 563 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:11,919 Speaker 4: as one of the longest stories I've ever done. But 564 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,239 Speaker 4: because I presented Andre, because I've been on the Hall 565 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 4: of Fame selection committee for more than thirty years, they 566 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 4: I asked him if I could be there and write 567 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 4: it behind the scenes thing, which I had done in 568 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:28,680 Speaker 4: Dallas last year when Chuck Ally's family invited me up 569 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 4: after I presented him. And it's great because there's only 570 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 4: me and the people from the Hall of Fame, and 571 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 4: you always wonder and the people that set it up 572 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:46,880 Speaker 4: keep it quiet. And Cannard McGuire's agent, longtime friend, did 573 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 4: a great job of convincing Andre that he was coming 574 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 4: to his house to put him in his will, which 575 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 4: he did, and he said, my lawyer says, you need 576 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 4: a couple of you need a pull up witnesses, So 577 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 4: why don't you bring maybe your mom and your brother. 578 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 4: And Andrea said later, you know, I never thought anything 579 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 4: about it because he's so close with the family. He said, okay, 580 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 4: and then so Canar goes over to Andrea's house. He's 581 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 4: got this monstrous home in southwest Houston. This attorney's supposed 582 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 4: to get there two thirty. I'm in my car in 583 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 4: a parking lot down the street the entrance to the neighborhood. 584 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 4: And uh so there's going to be an hour late, 585 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 4: so Cannar tells Andrew, Well, my attorney's going to be 586 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 4: an hour late. So Andrea's house is such that you 587 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 4: can be sitting around in this kitchen area which runs 588 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 4: into the den area, and there are huge rooms that 589 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 4: two cargo vans and a Yukon and an avalanche can 590 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 4: pull in to your driveway and you don't hear it. 591 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 4: And so that's what we did. When they came in, 592 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 4: went the gate, parked on the and what impressed me 593 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 4: so much last year they parked at Roger Skawback's house 594 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 4: and walked next door to Chuck Alley's and so I 595 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 4: had never seen them pull up. It was almost like 596 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 4: a presidential motorcade. They got out and nobody slammed the door. 597 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:20,959 Speaker 4: They barely closed him. They whispered, and they all had 598 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 4: boom MIC's. Everything was attached. While they were on the rug. 599 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 4: They get up to the front door, like the FBI 600 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,919 Speaker 4: is about to break down the door. They're quiet. Chris 601 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 4: Carter's got his gold jacket on. He gets to the 602 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 4: front of the group and he bangs on the door, 603 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:43,120 Speaker 4: no answer, hesitates, bangs on the door, no answer. Now. 604 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 4: In what they showed on the NFL network Saturday night, 605 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,680 Speaker 4: on the Knocks, it looked like he knocked once, so 606 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 4: there's a hesitation. Everybody's looking around like his he ear 607 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 4: and all of a sudden, the door opens and you 608 00:27:56,400 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 4: hear screaming and that was his mama. She he was 609 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 4: just screaming up a storm, grabbing Andrea, hugging him, and 610 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 4: he admitted that he didn't remember anything. Chris Carter told 611 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 4: him he was in shock, and he got emotional. He 612 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:16,399 Speaker 4: started crying, and Chris Carter shaking his hand, trying to 613 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 4: tell him, you're in a class in twenty twenty four, 614 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 4: it means this, and Andrea's just nodding his head while 615 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 4: tears are running down his face. And then when we 616 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:30,679 Speaker 4: go inside for the interviews, the hall calls it the 617 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 4: big reveal. He didn't have a clue. Nobody in the 618 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 4: house did other than Canard, and I think it was good. 619 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 4: Canard did put him in his will, and wish I 620 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 4: could have gotten Canard to put me in his will, 621 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 4: but he pulled it off as great. I detailed everything 622 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 4: in that story that's on Houston texans dot Com. Thank 623 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 4: you for letting me do it, because I was so 624 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 4: happy when we did the vote and we cut from 625 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 4: fifteen to ten, cut fifteen to ten. Reggie Wayne didn't 626 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 4: make the cut from fifteen to ten, Andre Tory Holt 627 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 4: did and we'd all talked for hours about all three 628 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 4: receivers deserved to be in Hall of Fame. So it 629 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 4: was the last two years. But when Reggie Wayne didn't 630 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 4: get to ten, I thought, Okay, we're going to vote 631 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 4: for Tory Halt first over Andre because he's been a 632 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 4: finalist a lot longer. So we vote from ten to five, 633 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 4: and they called him in alphabetic order, and I've got 634 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 4: my fingers crossed, I've got my toes crossed. On a 635 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 4: zoom they called Andre Johnson. I clicked the camera, so 636 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 4: it goes off and I start. I didn't jump up 637 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 4: and down and do carwheels, but I showed a lot 638 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 4: of emotion without anybody hearing it. So then when I 639 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 4: regained my composure. I hit the camera and just looked 640 00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 4: stoically like I was bored to death, and because I 641 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 4: wanted to act like I'd been in the end zone before. 642 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 4: And then when you make that cut to five, then 643 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 4: it is just yes or no votes. Everybody makes a 644 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 4: cut to five is in. I was so happy, first Texan, 645 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 4: happy for the McNair family, happy for him, happy for 646 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 4: his teammates, happy for everybody in the organization because he 647 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 4: will always be the first. It just like he was 648 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 4: the first ring of honor, first star, first superstar. And 649 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 4: I've never seen any emotion from him except when he 650 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 4: was pounding Cortland Finnigan, and I saw a lot. It 651 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 4: was just the opposite end of the emotional spectrum. 652 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 3: There are a lot of people, johnn to know who 653 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 3: I'm about to ask you about in this town. But 654 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 3: you probably had a as close relationship as you could 655 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 3: have with Bob McNair. What do you think Bob would 656 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 3: have thought when Andrea got the call to go in 657 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 3: the Hall of Fame. 658 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 4: Oh, he would have been. He would have been so 659 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 4: happy because of all the great respect he had for Andre, 660 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 4: Charlie Casherley. I texted Harley Charlie's one of the people 661 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 4: I called. 662 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 3: Uh. 663 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 4: In my presentation, I called Kyle Shanahan and Mike McDaniel. 664 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 4: They were part of my presentation because I was looking 665 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 4: for hot coaches who were in the news a lot, 666 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 4: and when we did this, Mike McDaniel was hot and 667 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 4: still in the news getting a lot of attention. So 668 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 4: I just thought, maybe putting coaches like those two in there, 669 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 4: maybe the quotes will resonate more. Don't know if they 670 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 4: did or not. Still had a lot of stats. A 671 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 4: lot of people spoke up on Andre's behalf. But Bob 672 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 4: McNair would have been so happy, so excited. 673 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: You know. 674 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 4: He wouldn't have turned cartwheels because that wasn't his style, 675 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 4: but he would have been pumped, just like Janie Hannah 676 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 4: and Cal McNair were. And uh and uh uh. There's 677 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 4: nobody more deserving. In four years, JJ Watt will be 678 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 4: the second Texan inducted into the Hall of Fame. Don't 679 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 4: know it will be third, but it was such an 680 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 4: exciting time and I when I'm standing in the back 681 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 4: of the crowd of Hall of famers and NFL films, 682 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 4: people with boom mics and Steve wish doing the interviews, 683 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 4: and I started getting teary eyed because Andre did. At 684 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 4: one point he had to walk away from everybody go 685 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 4: sit by himself on his sofa to compose himself. And 686 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 4: I took some pictures of that that Adam Cann had 687 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 4: did a great job on the headlines and the layout 688 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 4: and the subeds and pictures and cut lines and everything else. 689 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 4: He ran the pictures showing Andre there emotional and then 690 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 4: just kind of with melancholy looking around even though the 691 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 4: room was backed, and then he got back up and 692 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 4: came back over. The only thing that'd be more perfect 693 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 4: is if he hadn't been wearing stuff from the U. 694 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 4: He had been wearing text and stuff, but that just 695 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 4: shows you he had no clue, and he admitted he 696 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 4: had no clue. So he's wearing white socks when he 697 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 4: answered the door, green Miami shorts and a green Miami pullover, 698 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 4: and it's just seeing that. I watched it on Saturday night, 699 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 4: not knocks, and watching what they did was really good, 700 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 4: But watching him cry, that's what I hadn't seen before, 701 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 4: so I'd made it even more special. 702 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 2: It was a hurricane day. Yeah, it's got Texans Day. 703 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,720 Speaker 2: Hurricane day. I doubt he has Coults are Titans Day 704 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 2: because those were short experiences. But yeah, I felt it too, 705 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 2: and I felt emotional about it because John, I think 706 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:37,800 Speaker 2: it validates, for lack of a better word, a lot 707 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 2: of those teams for the Houston Texans seven eighth, nine, 708 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 2: twenty ten, even where all right, they didn't win as 709 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 2: many games as they wanted. They didn't get to the 710 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 2: playoffs in those years, but they had top four offensive 711 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 2: numbers in several of those years, and they had some 712 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 2: really sweet wins and some really good games. And I 713 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 2: think all the teammates can share in this in a way. 714 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 2: And I wrote about this myself on Houston Texans dot 715 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 2: com how Andre Ware from his nineteen eighty nine Heisman season, 716 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 2: he considers it our heisman, the whole team. 717 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 1: It's their heisman. 718 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 2: They all wanted together, Well, this is their Hall of 719 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,799 Speaker 2: Fame honor. All those guys who played with Andre on 720 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 2: those offenses, and maybe with the entire team as well. 721 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,800 Speaker 2: I think they all can share in this honor together 722 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 2: because they didn't get the ring, but they have the jacket. 723 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 4: I quoted in the presentation to the committee and also 724 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:38,280 Speaker 4: in the story I wrote Gary Gibeek talking about Andre 725 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 4: was so great. He gave the organization a chance to 726 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 4: make the playoffs, win the division, and compete for championships. 727 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 4: And other than win championships, there's not anything you can 728 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 4: say nicer about a player and how much he deserves 729 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:59,480 Speaker 4: of that honor. And you know, Resie Wayne played with 730 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:04,360 Speaker 4: Manning and all these other Hall of famers opposite Marvin Harrison, 731 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:08,760 Speaker 4: Tory Oak played with Kurt Warner, Marshall Falk, Orlando Pace 732 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 4: opposite Isaac Bruce's greatest strong turf. And I didn't mention 733 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 4: this in my story because I didn't want it to 734 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 4: detegrate Kevin Walter and Owen Daniels. But for the first 735 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 4: ten years, they were the best players. And the only 736 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:26,319 Speaker 4: time Andre ever had a receiver opposite him have more 737 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 4: nine hundred yards was when Hopkins came in late in 738 00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:33,800 Speaker 4: his career, and that happened one year before Andre was gone. 739 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 4: And so one of the things that Kubiak pointed out, 740 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:43,319 Speaker 4: and Mike McDaniel pointed us out too, that Andre had 741 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 4: so much attention from opposing defenses that he was one 742 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 4: of the first players receiver to ever be used the 743 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,680 Speaker 4: way he was, which was put him outside, put him inside, 744 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 4: put him in the backfield, send him in motion. Gary said, 745 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:01,360 Speaker 4: we put so much on him, but he handled it 746 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 4: all like a pro and he excelled doing it. And 747 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 4: uh when I watched highlights of all the great catches 748 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 4: he made. Uh. And one thing we don't use or 749 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 4: highlight reels when we're trying to solicit votes and and 750 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:20,920 Speaker 4: uh push our uh the player we present, but man 751 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 4: oh man, because all the highlights would be great for everybody. 752 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:27,319 Speaker 4: He never seen any low light films. And uh, but 753 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:30,560 Speaker 4: it just reminded me of what an incredible receiver he 754 00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:34,320 Speaker 4: was because he made so many great ones in which 755 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 4: he had players all over him. The one, the one 756 00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:38,759 Speaker 4: ended catch against the Titans and the end zone. But 757 00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 4: the one was it Arizona where he caught it the 758 00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 4: five and boat broke three times nine and over people. Ye, 759 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,040 Speaker 4: that that stood out to me, just showing what kind 760 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 4: of power he had. The one in Tennessee showed what 761 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:55,000 Speaker 4: kind of hands he had, The one in Washington showed 762 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:58,759 Speaker 4: the uh what kind of acrobat he was, and how 763 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,760 Speaker 4: he catches in traffic at the back of the end zone. 764 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:05,759 Speaker 4: And there were just so many that just illustrated what 765 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,879 Speaker 4: a great receiver he is, and now he's going into 766 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 4: Canton and it's the mcnairs will be I told Hannah 767 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,360 Speaker 4: col y'all going to be paying for a big party 768 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:20,240 Speaker 4: up there after his induction, and he better start saving 769 00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 4: now because it's going to be so many people there, teammates, fans, friends, families. 770 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,919 Speaker 4: I know we'll all be there and I can't wait. 771 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 3: General to the extent that you can tell us this, 772 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 3: how long were you sitting on this secret? How long 773 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 3: had you known that Andre was going into the Hall 774 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 3: of Fame before it was public. 775 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 4: We at our meeting in the middle of January, Oh wow, 776 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 4: we're supposed to go to Atlanta and we couldn't because 777 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,040 Speaker 4: of the weather. So many people trying to get there. 778 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 4: So it was a zoom. It's been a zoom since 779 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 4: the pandemic, which I liked better. But before we always 780 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,720 Speaker 4: went to the Super Bowl state we had the vote 781 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 4: on Saturday. We get there at six am and before 782 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 4: the NFL network, we might not get out of there 783 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 4: later night. But then with the NFL network, I wanted 784 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:10,399 Speaker 4: to get involved and they wanted announced earlier. Put they 785 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 4: started putting a time limit of five minutes on the 786 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 4: presentation and then others can talk, and you have opportunities 787 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:19,360 Speaker 4: to come back and add things, and I tried to 788 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:24,320 Speaker 4: always I add something special when I got one chance 789 00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:28,799 Speaker 4: to put out one thing, and so it was. Once 790 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,399 Speaker 4: he had to file five, I knew it, and then 791 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 4: I couldn't say anything to anybody. I recommended Canard to 792 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 4: try to do something like that. Cannard Maguire did a 793 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 4: fantastic job, and then Canard knew, and he didn't tell 794 00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 4: his family. He didn't tell Andre's family. He had to 795 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 4: sit on it. And he said it was hard because 796 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 4: he said, I talked to Andre almost every day and 797 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:57,360 Speaker 4: it's that time of the year. If Andre had been inquisitive, 798 00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 4: he'd say have you heard anything? But because he didn't 799 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 4: reach out to me, and I'm glad he didn't because 800 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,920 Speaker 4: I wouldn't have gotten back to it. Gary Kubiak was 801 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 4: texting me if you heard anything about Andre? 802 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 1: Oh? So I ignored it. 803 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,560 Speaker 4: Text and I said, uh, well, i'll find out when 804 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:17,799 Speaker 4: you do. Keep your fingers crossed and he said when 805 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 4: is that? I said on the NFL Honors show. And 806 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 4: most people figure out that since I'm on the committee 807 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:27,840 Speaker 4: that I would know. And one friend of mine didn't 808 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:31,799 Speaker 4: realize that. Well, night before he's the Honters, He's like, well, 809 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:33,320 Speaker 4: what do you think the odds are? What do you 810 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 4: do you think he's going to make it this year? 811 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 4: And I said, well, maybe the third time will be 812 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 4: the charm. I'm sure open so, and it was hard 813 00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 4: that I could not tell people, including y'all, exactly what 814 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:48,400 Speaker 4: I knew. But it all worked out. 815 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:51,320 Speaker 2: Perfectly, john thanks so much for joining us. Well, we 816 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,440 Speaker 2: will catch up on Thursday.

All right, kicking a few things 823 00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:11,839 Speaker 2: around here before the close of business on our inaugural 824 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:15,719 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four season, Texans All Access, and boy, this 825 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:19,399 Speaker 2: season cannot start soon enough. Couple of other things about 826 00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, Johnny. As the Tony Romo critics were 827 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,799 Speaker 2: out in full force last night, I'll just say this 828 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 2: a couple of things Tony Romo. I was thinking about this, 829 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:33,760 Speaker 2: how many analysts have we had who have done Super 830 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:37,359 Speaker 2: Bowls who had never played in one oo or even 831 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:41,120 Speaker 2: a championship game in a conference. Right, because if you 832 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 2: think about it, Joe Buck with Troy Aikman, Aikman's got 833 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 2: many pelts yep. 834 00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:45,959 Speaker 1: Right. 835 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,239 Speaker 2: And then Collinsworth played in two. Right, He played in 836 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:51,239 Speaker 2: the second one for the Bengals and the first one 837 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:53,360 Speaker 2: with Ken Anderson and then with boomeros. 838 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:54,759 Speaker 1: Sias number one one. But did get there. 839 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:57,359 Speaker 2: He got there a couple of times, right. And then 840 00:40:57,480 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 2: who did we have before that? Phil Simms would see, yes, 841 00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:03,319 Speaker 2: obviously won a Super Bowl and played on a lot 842 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:06,320 Speaker 2: of successful Giants teams. 843 00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 1: Coached in a Super Bowl. I mean Madden, Yes, of course, 844 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:08,600 Speaker 1: you know. 845 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:10,480 Speaker 2: I think we got to go back to Did Merlin 846 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,279 Speaker 2: Olsen play in that Rams Steelers Super Bowl?

Who other than Olsen who 853 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 2: had not played in one? 854 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 3: Greg Olsen got there in twenty fifteen.

Used check that 875 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 1: that was used check or kettle as you check? All right. 876 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 1: That was way more of a catch than Brian and 877 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:33,680 Speaker 1: Bryant shook the count. 878 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:36,760 Speaker 3: They were the exact they were the exact same play. 879 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 3: Caught it, took two steps, lunged and the ball came out. 880 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 1: The steps were more deliberate. I don't know, I have 881 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 1: to look at that one again, but he's the way 882 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,319 Speaker 1: Romo had the perfect, perfect time I had caught. Here's 883 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:48,759 Speaker 1: the other thing. 884 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:50,360 Speaker 3: If you'd have done that, I think people would have 885 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,360 Speaker 3: been Okay, yeah, that was good. Like he could have 886 00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:54,280 Speaker 3: played into the meme, like the whole thing. 887 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:56,839 Speaker 2: If Andre were on, I'd ask him this because as 888 00:42:56,840 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 2: a TV analyst, radio is different. As a TV analyst, 889 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:04,360 Speaker 2: when you have that hardman catch, you gotta lay out. 890 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,279 Speaker 2: You gotta shut up right right cannot as a TV 891 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 2: play by play guy too, you could say caught game 892 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 2: over something. 893 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:12,839 Speaker 1: You can see something real quick. 894 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 2: But then you just lay out and let the crowd explode, 895 00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:20,120 Speaker 2: let the reaction shots fly right, you get tailor up 896 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 2: in the booths, you get you know whatever. 897 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:22,440 Speaker 1: You get ahead. 898 00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:29,680 Speaker 2: You show all those shots with no commentary at least. 899 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:30,040 Speaker 1: Ten to twenty seconds. 900 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 2: I don't know what the time is, but it's a 901 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:36,400 Speaker 2: definite amount of time. You're not sitting there describing what 902 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,839 Speaker 2: just happened on the play because that's less relevant at 903 00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 2: that particular moment than the game is over right now, correct, 904 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:44,440 Speaker 2: So you let the. 905 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 1: Moment play out. It's a visual. You can see it. 906 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:49,560 Speaker 1: Radio different story. Radio, Yeah, Radio, just go, just go. 907 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 1: You don't got to keep going. Lay out a little, 908 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:52,640 Speaker 1: but you can't lay out that much TV. 909 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,799 Speaker 2: You gotta let that thing breathe, definitely let you gotta 910 00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:57,719 Speaker 2: let it and let it breathe. Easy for me to say, 911 00:43:57,719 --> 00:44:00,400 Speaker 2: but and look, I'm not saying you cannot call a 912 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 2: super Bowl if you haven't played in one. 913 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:03,439 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that at all. 914 00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:07,040 Speaker 2: But there's just something about that that's stuck out to me. 915 00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:09,319 Speaker 2: With all the heat he is getting, I don't think 916 00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:11,919 Speaker 2: he's that bad at all, but man, is he under 917 00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:13,480 Speaker 2: a lot of fire for a guy who's making as 918 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:15,239 Speaker 2: much money as he is, and maybe that's it for 919 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:17,280 Speaker 2: a guy who had the kind of honeymoon he had 920 00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 2: and now the marriage is not going as well.
