1
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Just keep grind all right, We're getting better, eating every day.

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,280
Speaker 2: Running rapt to the goal line, fighting his way in

3
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:08,239
Speaker 2: as the Texans wrap the lead.

4
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 1: That's gonna work. Maybe thanks to give hastime brow to

5
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:12,559
Speaker 1: the end zone.

6
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:14,040
Speaker 2: Caught and it's a tuckdown.

7
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 1: Love the energy wrapped up for.

8
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:21,000
Speaker 2: A lost for the TfL inside the ten island it

9
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:23,639
Speaker 2: Texans out the ball on the pit.

10
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 1: No, it's Texans all excess.

11
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 2: Good evening, Hello Texans, Mark vandermir, John Harris with you

12
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 2: and John McClain, the General joins us Thursday night. We party,

13
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 2: We get ready for the big football weekend. Savor every

14
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 2: moment of football season.

15
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 3: I give you the speech every once in a while.

16
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 3: Savor it. It's football season. It's beautiful.

17
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 2: The Texans are five and four heading into their matchup

18
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 2: with Arizona on Sunday noonkick live right here and immediately

19
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 2: out of the gate before we get to the injury report,

20
00:00:57,760 --> 00:00:59,319
Speaker 2: because I want to dig into that a little bit.

21
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 2: Let's hear from the General John McClean. Good evening, John,

22
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,039
Speaker 2: your thoughts on the Texans try to win three in

23
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 2: a row for the first time in a long time,

24
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 2: For the first time since twenty eighteen.

25
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,319
Speaker 4: I thought there's no way they were going to beat

26
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 4: the Bengals in Cincinnati, considering how well the Bengals were

27
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 4: playing and how Joe Burrow was playing great, and they're

28
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 4: legitimate Super Bowl contender, And then they went up there,

29
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 4: should have beat them by ten, and you know the

30
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 4: fact is they blew that lead, and they still wants

31
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 4: Demiko likes to say it's easier to teach lessons and

32
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 4: to clean things up after a win. And I'm sure

33
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 4: lessons were learned about the end of that game that

34
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,919
Speaker 4: will serve them well. And so they got a chance

35
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 4: here to win three in a row at home, including

36
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 4: against Jacksonville. But what they don't want is, like Carolina,

37
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 4: they came off the bye, we're terrible on offense, bad

38
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 4: one series on defense. Unfortunately it was the last one

39
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 4: they seemed to have overcome that turned a corner. And

40
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 4: we'll find out because Arizona there's no pushover now that

41
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 4: Kyler Murray is back and they're coming off of victory

42
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 4: over a team the Texans couldn't beat the Falcons general.

43
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 5: After losing the Carolina the Texans have won two exciting ballgames.

44
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 5: I think the Tampa Bay game was probably closer than

45
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 5: the Bengals game was. I mean, the Texans were in

46
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 5: complete control of that game for the most part, but

47
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 5: just kind of messed up in the fourth quarter.

48
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 1: But what do you think is the.

49
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,519
Speaker 5: Real Texas team the one we seen the last couple

50
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:30,959
Speaker 5: of weeks of the one we saw in Carolina.

51
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 4: I think the team that they saw in Carolina is

52
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 4: long gone. Fadi did to oblivion and one of the

53
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 4: things that looking back at that CJ's dripped through for

54
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,639
Speaker 4: season one hundred and forty yards. After the game, he

55
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,359
Speaker 4: politely said he would like to have more explosive plays.

56
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 4: And so Bobby Slowick, the first time play caller, did

57
00:02:55,560 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 4: what good offensive coordinators do. He listened to his coquarter

58
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 4: back and I'm sure they talked about this behind the scenes,

59
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,119
Speaker 4: and then they came out and they've averaged over five

60
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 4: hundred yards the last two games, and CJ's average way

61
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 4: over four hundred. And they're not going to be able

62
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 4: to do that every game, of course, But Arizona's defense

63
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 4: is nothing special. Past defense is nothing special, and so

64
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 4: now it's amazing. They're the only team in the league

65
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 4: that has four receivers in the top twenty five in yards.

66
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 4: That includes tight end Alted Schultz. Noah Brown leads the

67
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 4: NFL and the average per catch. You know, he's been

68
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 4: just incredible. Nico Collins, he missed one game and he's saying,

69
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 4: I want to get some of that. So he's back.

70
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 4: And you think about you have Brown, Collins, Dell, and

71
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 4: then you have Robert Woods and John Metchi who is

72
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 4: a really good blocker having a couple of important catches.

73
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 4: Xavier Hutchinson ever got on the field for something besides

74
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 4: an end around in which he runs over people and

75
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 4: gets first downs no time, how he would play. I

76
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 4: wrote a column yesterday it's on Sports Radio sixth then

77
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 4: dot com that if we're talking about Dimiko as Coach

78
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,239
Speaker 4: of the Year and people are talking about Strouds MVP,

79
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 4: then Nick of Sario has got to be talked about

80
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 4: for Executive the Year. And if you look at all

81
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 4: the players that have been brought in here as free

82
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,720
Speaker 4: agents and how well they're playing, and you look at

83
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 4: their draft, if they keep it up, they will surpass

84
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 4: Tomiko's draft in two thousand and six is the best

85
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 4: in franchise history. And every time I see those things

86
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 4: that you guys see behind the scenes, your Steff does

87
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 4: where they're in there after the game, listening to Domiko

88
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 4: talk to the players and their reaction. How can you

89
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 4: see that and not have a lot of confidence in

90
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 4: this team, not just the direction it's headed but in

91
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 4: the future, but what it's doing right now. They got

92
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 4: it good chance to win the division.

93
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 2: Well, we'll find out a lot more on Sunday and

94
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,719
Speaker 2: then the following week when Jacksonville comes calling.

95
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,239
Speaker 3: But I'm not gonna look ahead.

96
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 2: I will look at practice today though, general, and let's

97
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 2: go over some of these injury report items here. Speaking

98
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 2: of practice, I got Vanderkidd two in studio here. He's

99
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 2: chopping at the bit to go to basketball practice. We've

100
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 2: got one right after this show.

101
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 3: But I'll get it to this.

102
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 2: Some things that have me mildly concerned, and I'll give

103
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 2: you my level of concern after tomorrow's injury report comes out.

104
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 2: But grayln Arnold shows up with a calf after having

105
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 2: nothing listed on the injury report, George Fan with a hip.

106
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 2: That's the big one to me. He was not on

107
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 2: the injury report anywhere, but he's limited with a hip today,

108
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 2: So something happened. I hope it's nothing serious. Let's hope

109
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 2: for the very best. The good news is though that

110
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 2: you had Nico still limited.

111
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 3: Let's hope for the best. There.

112
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 2: Noah's still a DNP did not participate. Will Anderson's full today.

113
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:58,160
Speaker 2: Titus Kurt Heinisch full full, Dalton Schultz full, Laramie full,

114
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 2: that's good stuff. What do you make of the tackle

115
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 2: situation with Fan? Charlie Heck has been practicing. This could

116
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 2: be one of those where maybe you have to bring

117
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 2: him in. I don't know.

118
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 3: How do you think it's gonna go?

119
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 4: Well, you might. And you also could push Josh Jones

120
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 4: in his natural position of right tackle. That's what he's

121
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 4: played it mostly his old career, although he has played

122
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:22,039
Speaker 4: guard and he has played inside. But the truth is

123
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 4: the Texans have injuries every week and it hasn't slowed

124
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,280
Speaker 4: them down. There's only one player they can't afford to

125
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 4: get hurt. They miss Nico Collins. Noah Brown goes crazy.

126
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 4: If Noah Brown's out, Nico could go crazy. Nico told

127
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 4: the media yesterday He's gonna play and I believe it.

128
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 4: And as far as the offensive line, if George Fan

129
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:49,599
Speaker 4: were to be out, they could move tightest to right tackle.

130
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,559
Speaker 4: His best position and put somebody else and left guard.

131
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 4: I wish Jews drugs would come back from my rs

132
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 4: so they can have more flexibility inside. Michael Dieter's been

133
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 4: playing really well since he was put in at center,

134
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 4: run blocking and pass protection. Offensive line well, this last

135
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 4: game was shocking and how they helped block one hundred

136
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 4: and eighty eight yards without a run. It was longer

137
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 4: than twenty two yards. But Devin Singletary, and Singletary has

138
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 4: a career. I carries thirty like you go, oh my god,

139
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 4: nobody carries the ball and three thirty times again, and

140
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 4: not only to get one hundred and fifty yards. You know,

141
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 4: he's what like five to seven. They probably listed him

142
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 4: at five to eight. What he is in his shoes

143
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 4: and the moves he made and the way he has

144
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 4: learned what to do on his own scheme, you know,

145
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 4: plant the foot, go, make sure you get the right holes.

146
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 4: He's putting moves on people. He was outstanding and so

147
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 4: and you're missing Damian Pierce. So it's a cliche. Next

148
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 4: man up. I don't ever write it. I don't try

149
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 4: to talk about it because you hear it so much.

150
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 4: But the fact is, no matter who's had to step up.

151
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 4: They step up, and in fact, Mingles had some passes down

152
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 4: the fields. Shouldn't be shocking. They're missing three of their

153
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 4: top four safeties. And they get a guy off the

154
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 4: practice squad at Baltimore, DeAndre Houston Carson, who'd had a

155
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 4: cup of coffee here, and he comes in. There s

156
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 4: seven Nuindeer City tackles and an interceptition. So if Grayland

157
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 4: Arnold can't play, somebody else will step up and do well.

158
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 4: And yes, the players are doing a great job, but

159
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 4: I gotta tell you, these coaches are coaching their asses off.

160
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 4: And a guy that needs to get a lot of

161
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 4: love is Ben McDaniels. Hadn't been a lot of positivity

162
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 4: in his family lately because of his brother. But men

163
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 4: McDaniel's coaching these receivers when we all thought, okay, they

164
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 4: need they need a receiver more than anything else going

165
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 4: into training camp. He has done a fantastic job.

166
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 5: All right, General, you mentioned Devin Singletary a little while ago,

167
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 5: thirty for one fifty a touchdown that is just perfect symmetry,

168
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 5: which helps my host brain. But what happens and Damian

169
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 5: Pierce is not practiced Wednesday or Thursday of this week.

170
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 5: So my guess is maybe not this week, but at

171
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,959
Speaker 5: some point Damien's gonna come back healthy. How do you

172
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 5: think the running back situation will play out once Damien

173
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 5: is one hundred percent.

174
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 1: Ready to go?

175
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 4: I think the Singletary would be the starter and should be.

176
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:24,080
Speaker 4: And I think Piersoll, instead of Singletary carrying thirty times,

177
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 4: maybe carries twenty and Pierce carries ten. But Damien's got

178
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 4: to prove now that he can that he can work

179
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 4: this offense, the zone scheme that Bobby Slowan has put

180
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 4: in that you can't be a straight ahead runner. You

181
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 4: got to go left, you got to plant, go, go right,

182
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 4: plant go, and but that'd be great if they had

183
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 4: it back. But man, there's another example a starter being

184
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 4: out and a guy stepping up and not just taking

185
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,439
Speaker 4: up space or being average, but being tremendous.

186
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 3: John, what's the approach of Arizona here?

187
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 2: They bring back Murray and they won last week, so

188
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,560
Speaker 2: they're trying to win, which I know sounds silly to

189
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 2: say it that way, because early on we thought maybe

190
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 2: they're not trying to win. I hate to say it

191
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 2: like that, but it's true. Come on, we were all

192
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 2: thinking it, Caleb Williams, whoever else they might want to draft,

193
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,680
Speaker 2: but Murray's got a big contract. Wouldn't it be in

194
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 2: their best interest for Murray to start playing really well

195
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 2: and them all getting along and having fun in the desert.

196
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 2: What do you think their approach is and what they want.

197
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 4: I think they would love for Kyler Murray to play

198
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:35,120
Speaker 4: great and the running games pretty good, and they're getting

199
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 4: They've gotten James Connor back, and of course Murray, you've

200
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 4: got to contain him. That's John de Grenard and Will

201
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 4: Anderson is the best twoson in the league, setting the

202
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 4: edge according statistics statistics, and they are gonna have their

203
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 4: hands a full trying to keep Kyler Murray from getting

204
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 4: around the corner. I would imagine Texans will have a

205
00:10:54,400 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 4: spy on him today. Sean Bender guest spent speculated about

206
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 4: Blake Cashwin, who is our ice grade, a defensive player

207
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 4: and can cover, but somebody has got to spy on him,

208
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:10,080
Speaker 4: not that that is still hard to catch. He's like

209
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 4: a lightning bug. And I think they're going to be

210
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 4: fired up for this game. People used to not get

211
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 4: fired up for the Texans. Now they do every time

212
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 4: they turn on the TV radio on the look on

213
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,679
Speaker 4: their smartphone, they see CJ. Stroud and a little more

214
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 4: to Miko, so people are going to get up for him.

215
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 4: Russell Wilson's playing really well. You think he's on the Texans.

216
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,199
Speaker 4: You think he don't want to come in here and

217
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 4: put his stamp on him again. And the Jaguars got

218
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 4: everything to play for. But that should just make the

219
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 4: Texans better knowing they're going to get the best that

220
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 4: every team has to offer.

221
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 5: Speaking of best, general, do you buy CJ. Stroud in

222
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 5: the MVP conversation?

223
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, he is in the conversation and he should be

224
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 4: because he's playing great. There's not another quarterback in the

225
00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,439
Speaker 4: NFL has played better than him the last two weeks.

226
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,839
Speaker 4: But the fact that no rookies wanted other than Jim

227
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 4: Brown in fifty seven, the odds are greatly stacked against him.

228
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 4: He has to win the division. No rookie, no MVP

229
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 4: has been another position besides the quarterback since Adrian Peterson

230
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 4: in two twelve, So you got overtake the Jaguars. I

231
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,319
Speaker 4: think Dimiko has a better chance of being Coach of

232
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 4: the Year than I think Stroud does be an MVP

233
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,680
Speaker 4: because he just doesn't happen. But based on what's happened

234
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 4: the last two weeks, you can't put it past them.

235
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 4: But guys like Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson and Jalen Hurts,

236
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 4: you know they're they're getting to the time of year

237
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:43,080
Speaker 4: that gets their motors running, and they play for really

238
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 4: good teams that not great teams. But the key is

239
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 4: will he get votes? Each voter turns in five? It

240
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,839
Speaker 4: used to be one, now it's five. That's after the

241
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:54,960
Speaker 4: last two years. And I'll bet you if he keeps

242
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,560
Speaker 4: us up, he will certainly be in the top five,

243
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 4: which would be an amazing accomplishment for a rookie coming

244
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 4: into a team that was three thirteen and one.

245
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 2: There's an ANFC South battle this week with Jacksonville playing Tennessee.

246
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 2: Now this is going to be played in North Florida.

247
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 2: The Titans are three and six. There was a report

248
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 2: today and I didn't see anybody else pick it up,

249
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,959
Speaker 2: So maybe it was BS that Tannehill was asking for

250
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 2: his release. In any case, the Titans have Levis going

251
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 2: what's going on with Tennessee here?

252
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:24,680
Speaker 3: John?

253
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 2: Do they have a shot to knock off the Jaguars

254
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:27,679
Speaker 2: This weekend.

255
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 4: Well, right away, you say no, because Jaguars stunk it

256
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 4: up at home against forty nine ers just got humiliated.

257
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 4: But that might have snapped them to attention because they

258
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 4: had lost a game before that, since the Texans humiliated

259
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 4: them in Jacksonville. But Landry Locker brought us up on

260
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 4: inn Loop this week. Mike Brable has shown a knack

261
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 4: for winning a game that don't expect. They pounded the

262
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 4: Bengals this year and then they'd get beat by everybody.

263
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 4: Their offensive line was so bad in their game against Tampa.

264
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 4: They couldn't run, they couldn't throw. I don't think Will

265
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 4: Levis behind that line is going to go in there

266
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 4: and win the game. But if they somehow pulled it

267
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 4: off with say a great defense that forced turnovers and

268
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 4: shorten the field. They kicked a lot of field goals,

269
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 4: I wouldn't be shocked.

270
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 5: All right, General, and make this one very easy. The

271
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 5: new England Patriots go.

272
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 4: We'll be looking for a new coach and general manager

273
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 4: in the off season. It's amazing to me. I'll see

274
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 4: a report out of New York by Gary Myers. I'm

275
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 4: told he's going to Chargers. See what Albert Breer Cowboys.

276
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 4: Are you kidding me? Jerry Jones is going to turn

277
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 4: over total control of everything to Bill Belichick and Steven

278
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 4: Jones is going to do that. No way. People act

279
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 4: like Jerry Jones fires coaches all the time.

280
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: He doesn't.

281
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 4: They've won twelve games each of the last two years.

282
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 4: They may win twelve games this year. Mike mc ay,

283
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 4: I don't think's going anywhere unless he claims out in

284
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 4: the first round. But I could see, you know, Florio

285
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 4: has been floating him Belichick to the Commanders for about

286
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 4: three weeks now. I could certainly see that Bears are

287
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 4: trying to get a new stadium. They probably should go

288
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 4: after Harball, and I think the best place where Belichick

289
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 4: would be the Raiders because Brady would get approved as

290
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 4: a minor partner. That means he could tell Belichick what

291
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:30,200
Speaker 4: to do.

292
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 3: Well, we all want to see that, all right.

293
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 2: That's definitely good drama right there, And Johnny and I

294
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 2: will dig into that a little bit more in the

295
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 2: next segment. But general, one more thing on the Patriots. Here,

296
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 2: are we still of the mindset that Craft would look

297
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 2: in house in the Patriot family for replacement, whether it

298
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 2: be GM or coach or would he look to another system.

299
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 2: I want to pluck from that Shanahan tree or whatever

300
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 2: the case may be. Your latest thoughts on that.

301
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 4: You can get another system if you are hiring an ouse,

302
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 4: only an ouse person. They would hire Drive Mayo, who's

303
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,400
Speaker 4: been there a player coach, I think sixteen years, and

304
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 4: when he was going to interview for that coaching job

305
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 4: at Carolina, they paid him not to do it. And

306
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 4: why would you do that for a linebackers coach? So

307
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 4: it makes me think Kraft may want him, but he

308
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 4: would hire an offensive coordinator to come in and change

309
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 4: things up from what they've been doing. The fact is

310
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 4: it was not the Patriot way. It was the Brady way.

311
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 4: And I heard something this. I was asking on my

312
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 4: Nashville show this week. Have you heard that Rabel and

313
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 4: Casario were going to go to New England and the

314
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 4: Titans are going to come after Bobby Slowick? And I said, no,

315
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 4: I haven't heard that. I said, but Casio is not

316
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 4: going anywhere. He's got another three years left on his contract.

317
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 4: And McNair's love him, And I said, and Rabel didn't

318
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 4: go anywhere because Amy hadamstruck loves him and if he

319
00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 4: got fired in the morning, he'd have a job by lunchtime.

320
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 4: And then Bobby Slowick he needs another year as coordinator

321
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,639
Speaker 4: and said, if you wait one more year, then you

322
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,639
Speaker 4: might have a chance to give slow it.

323
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 1: General.

324
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,439
Speaker 5: Deshaun Watson is out for this season. This is a

325
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 5: pretty big talking point. I know on six ten, it's

326
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 5: all around the country, but definitely here.

327
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 1: What does this mean for Cleveland? What do you think

328
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 1: it means for Houston?

329
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 5: What do you think it means just going forward to

330
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 5: everything included playoffs, draft picks, everything, Toshaun in the future.

331
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 5: What do you think about this situation in Cleveland with

332
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 5: DeShawn out for the year with a shoulder surgery about

333
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:36,399
Speaker 5: to happen.

334
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 4: John, When I first heard that, I thought about the

335
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 4: draft picks. They have the Browns first and fourth round picks,

336
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,440
Speaker 4: and Cleveland has done much better than I ever thought

337
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 4: they would. And Watson's had very little to do with

338
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 4: it because he's been hurt so much. But their defense

339
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 4: is great and they've overcome the loss of Nick Chubb

340
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 4: with Jerome Ford in a great offensive line. They still

341
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 4: run the ball really when the weather turns bad. You

342
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 4: don't need a lot when you're playing next to the

343
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,119
Speaker 4: lake erie and the winds blowing like crazy. That's not

344
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 4: even if it's snowing and or you got ice. You

345
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:13,879
Speaker 4: got to run the ball, and they still run it.

346
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 4: And they play best defense in the NFL. So I

347
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 4: think there's a good chance there's not a great team

348
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 4: in AFC North. I think they'll compete for wild card

349
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 4: berth win nine or ten and have a chance to

350
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 4: make the playoffs, which would be an incredible accomplishment to

351
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 4: lose Chubb and Watson. But Watson played really well in

352
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,440
Speaker 4: the second half of the victory at Baltimore and he

353
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,399
Speaker 4: should get his tributes for that. But the rest of

354
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,400
Speaker 4: the season he's been up and down because of injuries.

355
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 2: John McLean joining us on a Thursday night. Lambeau Field

356
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 2: has its own Twitter account. I only bring this up

357
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 2: because it's super cool. They show lights growing the grass, Johnny,

358
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 2: are these grass growing lights up at lambeau Field. They

359
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 2: bring them in because the only shines for one hour

360
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 2: a day this time of year in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

361
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:06,880
Speaker 2: I think that's super cool. But I just thought i'd

362
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 2: bring this up as an aside. I want to focus

363
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 2: on a couple of other games here in general. Are

364
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 2: the Jets or Bills. Well, Johnny and I have the

365
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 2: who's better segment? Who's more dead the Jets of the Bills.

366
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 2: I know the obvious answer is the Jets with the

367
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 2: Zach Wilson a quarterback situation, but they played with a

368
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 2: lot of life even though they can't execute. The Bills

369
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 2: just seem really broken. I know they just fired Ken Dorsey.

370
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 2: What's going to happen with those two squads is they

371
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 2: get together Sunday and moving forward, the Texans will be

372
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 2: at the Jets December tenth.

373
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 4: I think the Jets are dead in the water. I

374
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 4: think there's no way Aaron Rodgers is coming back if

375
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:47,360
Speaker 4: they're not in the playoff race. Behind that offensive line,

376
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 4: I think for that game to get switched to Monday Night,

377
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:55,639
Speaker 4: Rogers would have to come back. And I think the

378
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,439
Speaker 4: Bills still have Josh Allen. You know he's turning the

379
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,359
Speaker 4: ball over. They don't run it as much as they should.

380
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 4: They got away from it the other in the Denver

381
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 4: game because the backs fumbled, but they were running great.

382
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,439
Speaker 4: They got established a run with the running backs not

383
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 4: put everything on Josh Allen's shoulders. They've had a lot

384
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,480
Speaker 4: of injuries, but I think, you know, the Jets haven't

385
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:23,359
Speaker 4: beaten anybody like the Bills beat Miami, and so I

386
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 4: think the Bills might use Dorsey's firing kind of galvanized

387
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 4: as a team because they still got a lot of

388
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:31,399
Speaker 4: talent general.

389
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:32,679
Speaker 3: One thing we haven't talked about.

390
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 5: Denzel Perriman had a three game suspension reduced to two games.

391
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 5: Thoughts about that whole situation with Denzel having to be

392
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 5: suspended for two games.

393
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,360
Speaker 4: Well, I get a big kick out of John run

394
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 4: and he began his career with Oilers, was one of

395
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:50,399
Speaker 4: the dirtiest players in the NFL history that the league

396
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:53,480
Speaker 4: hired him to hand out the punishment. Now, he should

397
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 4: certainly know because he was involved in enough dirty hits

398
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 4: and and they said he had seven violations. It's for

399
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 4: repeated violations that gave him three. When you saw Kareem

400
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 4: Jackson get that and get it reduced to two, you

401
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,120
Speaker 4: knew Perryman was going to get it reduced to two.

402
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,959
Speaker 4: They still have linebackers. Perryman's missed games before this season,

403
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 4: but they've got Christian Harris has been playing really well.

404
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,479
Speaker 4: Henry Tolatola is still out with a concussion. Don't know

405
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:26,159
Speaker 4: if he's coming back. Blake Cashman has been great. I

406
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:30,120
Speaker 4: asked Cashman yesterday about his being injured almost his whole

407
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 4: career with the Jets. Now he's not, and he told

408
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 4: me all these things they had him do here for

409
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 4: his soft tissue injuries, and he spends a lot of

410
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,440
Speaker 4: time doing it. And to think you can go from

411
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 4: one organization to another and they tell you what to

412
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 4: do and it works so well with him that I

413
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 4: think they can afford to lose Perriman because they do

414
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:50,919
Speaker 4: have talent at linebacker.

415
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:56,400
Speaker 2: John Carissa Thompson admits to making up some sideline reports,

416
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,360
Speaker 2: and I think she did it just as oh, that's

417
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 2: kind of funny. Look, I know what the coach is

418
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 2: going to say. Anyway, it's pretty obvious even though that

419
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,120
Speaker 2: might be true. As soon as I read that, because

420
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 2: I didn't hear the podcast, but it says I read that.

421
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 2: I said, that's just flat out wrong, and she's being

422
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,159
Speaker 2: heavily called out for it. What are your thoughts on

423
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 2: the subject.

424
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 4: That is one of the dumbest things I've ever seen.

425
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 4: Why would she admit that it was a podcast? Why

426
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:25,119
Speaker 4: would you say that the people don't trust the media

427
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 4: as it is? And so now you give them a reason.

428
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,879
Speaker 4: Can anybody believe anything she says next time? And it

429
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 4: may all be true, but there will be people doubting her.

430
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,400
Speaker 4: She's going to take all kinds of grief from fans

431
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,880
Speaker 4: on not just online but in stadiums. And I think

432
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,879
Speaker 4: it was stupid. I think it reflects very poorly on

433
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:50,360
Speaker 4: other sideline reporters who don't make things up. But now

434
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:52,640
Speaker 4: people are going to wonder if they do. And there's

435
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:56,199
Speaker 4: a lot of sideline reporters lashing out at them, and

436
00:22:56,280 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 4: as very unfair of her. If you doesn't mind Orgs

437
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 4: and herself, that's fine, but casting a negative light on

438
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,480
Speaker 4: so many other people who'd loved to have her job.

439
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,360
Speaker 4: I thought it was just just preposterous.

440
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,360
Speaker 5: Speaking as a sideline reporter, I will tell you I've

441
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 5: never made anything up.

442
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,640
Speaker 4: Yeah right, you're just smart enough not to admit it.

443
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:20,439
Speaker 1: Well, what was I gonna make up?

444
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:20,720
Speaker 4: General?

445
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,919
Speaker 5: I couldn't see with my own two eyes, you know,

446
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,640
Speaker 5: I mean seriously, that's where I mean, I just used

447
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 5: my eyes.

448
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,160
Speaker 4: I mean that's yeah. Well, Demico just told me, even

449
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:33,959
Speaker 4: though he ran right past, Younko told me that we

450
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 4: need to get off the field more we got to

451
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 4: run the ball better.

452
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,879
Speaker 5: Listen, Demiko is the best. He's the best. Listen against

453
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 5: Tampa Bay. I knew he was mad. I knew he

454
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 5: was really mad, and he he told me. He's like,

455
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 5: I kind of vented to you. I got it out

456
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,400
Speaker 5: of the way and I talked to the team. I'm like, look,

457
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:53,119
Speaker 5: if that's what I got to do, so I gotta do.

458
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 5: Demiko will never run by me. And if I don't

459
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 5: talk to a coach, I listen. There were a couple

460
00:23:57,600 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 5: of times I didn't talk to the coach at halftime

461
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 5: for different reasons. I never made anything up that came

462
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 5: out of his mouth, that's for sure.

463
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 4: Well, that's because you've got experience, and you've got character,

464
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 4: and you got things that you want sideline reporters to have.

465
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,400
Speaker 4: But I feel bad. I feel really bad for all

466
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:18,679
Speaker 4: specially women and young women.

467
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: Yes.

468
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 2: Absolutely, Generally you're right on Demiko being mad is like

469
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 2: labeled praise compared to other coaches being mad at thet

470
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,600
Speaker 2: So we don't have to get into that right now. General,

471
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 2: what do you have going on on your various platforms

472
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 2: for us?

473
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,880
Speaker 4: I am working on a column right now. I interviewed

474
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,679
Speaker 4: Warren Moon when he was in town last week to

475
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,679
Speaker 4: find out he was part of the Class of twenty

476
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 4: twenty four for the Houston Sports Hall of Fame, interviewed

477
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,480
Speaker 4: him about Stroud. He's been watching Stroud since he was

478
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 4: a sophomore at Ohio State, and he talks about him.

479
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,199
Speaker 4: And then Stroud told me I shouldn't. I'm not going

480
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 4: to tell you all this. I have to read it. No,

481
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 4: I'll tell you Rout said. Round said yesterday, he told

482
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:07,159
Speaker 4: me that his dad used to tell him to watch

483
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 4: the tape of the Oilers and Warren Moon because learned

484
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 4: to try to throw the ball like that, because Moon

485
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 4: had the tightest spiral and was one of the best

486
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 4: pure passers in NFL history. And so I'm talking about

487
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:25,360
Speaker 4: the similarities. And it's not a coincidence because that's who

488
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,720
Speaker 4: he watched a lot to try to emulate. He does

489
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 4: throw passes just like Warren. His character, his personalities like Warren.

490
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 4: He's very, very laid back, you know, he doesn't show emotion.

491
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:41,439
Speaker 4: He's poised no matter what the situation. And when those balls,

492
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 4: When I see him release a pass and it's headed

493
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,120
Speaker 4: down the field, I think of Warren Moon.

494
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:52,400
Speaker 2: Well, somebody tweeted John Madden talking about Tom Brady when

495
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,720
Speaker 2: Brady was young and comparing his calmness to Joe Montana,

496
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 2: and I thought, well, you know what I thought, and

497
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,399
Speaker 2: I'm not putting that on ceat just yet. But he

498
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 2: is calm, cool and collected, no question about it.

499
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:05,919
Speaker 3: General. Thanks so much for being with us tonight.

500
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 4: My pleasure, guys, Thank you as always.

501
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,679
Speaker 3: All right, coming up, who's better, Let's do it.

502
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:15,440
Speaker 2: We've got Texans related stuff, AFC South, other NFL items.

503
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 2: We have Houston Methodists minutes a little bit later on

504
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:21,680
Speaker 2: talking about heart disease. Yeah, it's a big deal, of course,

505
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,879
Speaker 2: the number one killer of men and women. Did you

506
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 2: know that it's weird? I mean not weird, it's sad.

507
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 2: It's terrible. And we'll talk to a Houston Methodist doctor

508
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,399
Speaker 2: about that briefly, among other things here in advance of

509
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:36,359
Speaker 2: Thursday night football with the Ravens and the Bengals. I

510
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,400
Speaker 2: think you got a roof of the Bengals tonight. It's

511
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 2: Texans Radio.

512
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 6: More Texans Radio is on the way.

513
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 2: Moving right along here on Texans Radio, Mark Vandermere and

514
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 2: John Harris with you, and let's do it. It's what

515
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:57,480
Speaker 2: we do most Thursdays. Who's better, Johnny, let's rock all right?

516
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,160
Speaker 2: The first who's better question is really who.

517
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:00,679
Speaker 6: It was best?

518
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 2: And that would be the best or toughest opponent for

519
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:08,160
Speaker 2: the Houston Texans the rest of the way other than

520
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:08,960
Speaker 2: the Jaguars.

521
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,360
Speaker 1: Oh, Now, I want you to give me not.

522
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 2: Just what team might be best here, but what game

523
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 2: might be toughest for whatever reasons you might have.

524
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:19,640
Speaker 6: I've got a theory.

525
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:20,880
Speaker 1: I know you have a theory.

526
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 2: Can't be the Jags, who are six and three right

527
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 2: now leading the ANFC South.

528
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 6: That's next week.

529
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 2: You have the Cardinals this week after that, after the Jags,

530
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:34,159
Speaker 2: next week, Broncos, Jets, Titans, Browns, Titans again, and the

531
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:35,959
Speaker 2: Colts to close out the regular season.

532
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 6: Which one is it, Johnny, Colts Week eighteen? Oh?

533
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 5: First of all, First of all, winning up in Indianapolis

534
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 5: has never been easy, even though we got one last year. Yep,

535
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 5: and that one I've talked about. Yeah, you and I

536
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 5: have talked about the Colts. They're just they're They've got

537
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 5: enough players to hang around and they compete in Sean

538
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 5: and Shane Stikeen has proven to be a very very

539
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,359
Speaker 5: very good coach head coach of its coordinator, play caller.

540
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,879
Speaker 5: Throw it all together at one bully you base, Shane Stike,

541
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 5: It's pretty darn good. I was really impressed with what

542
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 5: they did here in Houston in week two, and look,

543
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,760
Speaker 5: the Texans hadn't found themselves. They were kind of playing

544
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 5: one side of the ball. The first week. The defense

545
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 5: was really good against the Ravens, offense not so good.

546
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 5: Then the offense was better against the Colts and defense

547
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:22,879
Speaker 5: not so good. But Week eighteen, I would think both

548
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 5: teams are gonna be hitting all cylinders and they'll have

549
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 5: JT twenty eight back. Now is there a possibility that

550
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 5: game may not mean anything?

551
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 6: Because whatever, I just feel like that.

552
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 5: Team I don't want to face because they're getting better

553
00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 5: each and every week the same way the Texans are.

554
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:41,000
Speaker 5: So it's gonna be one heck of a game. But

555
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 5: I look at each game and I almost said the Jets.

556
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: But if Aaron.

557
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 6: Rodgers isn't back, he's not coming back.

558
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 5: And I don't really fear Aaron what's his name, Aaron.

559
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 5: I wanted to call him Aaron Wilson, Zach Wilson. I

560
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 5: don't really feel it fears Zach all that much. You're

561
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 5: just not scoring touches. I saw a stat where they've

562
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 5: had fifty three drives since Zach Wilson took over, and

563
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 5: they have like two touchdowns something along those lines. It's

564
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 5: an absurd number what they haven't been able to do,

565
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 5: and there's a possibility that in a couple of weeks

566
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 5: it could just implode. Anyways, because if the offense continues

567
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,520
Speaker 5: down this track, who knows. I just feel like the

568
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 5: Colts are getting better and better and they can win

569
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 5: different kinds of games. I mean, they scored thirty one

570
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 5: to beat us, they scored ten to beat the Patriots.

571
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 5: So I feel like it's Colts Week eighteen, and there

572
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 5: could be something on the line for one team, for

573
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 5: both teams, and that's kind of the last place I

574
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:39,720
Speaker 5: really would like to be playing with something on the

575
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 5: line week eighteen.

576
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 2: I just think the toughest game always tends to be

577
00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 2: one that you're not expected, yes, when you at least

578
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 2: expect it, expect it.

579
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 6: Is it the Cardinals this weeknd? Is it the Titans?

580
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 2: See, I'll vote for the Titans being the toughest one

581
00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 2: and the one here for some reason, for some reason,

582
00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 2: you're in a dog fight with them, even the history

583
00:29:59,880 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 2: of this franchise, Johnny, I go back. We talked about

584
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,640
Speaker 2: Denver yesterday week after you played the Patriots in twenty

585
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 2: nineteen and then you were blown out by the Broncos

586
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 2: and all of that kind of stuff, or twenty twelve,

587
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 2: the Jacksonville game that we always bring up, that deep

588
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 2: in overtime game where you weren't expecting that from the Jaguars,

589
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 2: but you got it and you dealt with it, but

590
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 2: it took you every bit of overtime to do it. Well,

591
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 2: I think this year it'll be a division game, and

592
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 2: it'll be one maybe least expect maybe the Titans. Here,

593
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:32,960
Speaker 2: all right, who's better better destination for Bill Belichick assuming

594
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:36,920
Speaker 2: he's gone, Assuming he's gone, So we go with the Raiders,

595
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 2: who have a vacancy. Antonio Pierce doesn't have the job yet,

596
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 2: So the Raiders. And I'm gonna go with some presumed

597
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 2: vacancies or possible vacancies. So here we go, Bears, Raiders, Panthers, and.

598
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 6: Let me look around here.

599
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 2: I don't have another one. Here, I don't have another justinations,

600
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 2: let's go Chargers. Charger rumored, Oh yeah, that's another one.

601
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 2: So Bears Panthers, Raiders, Chargers. What's the best one for him?

602
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 2: You are Bill Belichick's agent, You're gonna get all the

603
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:11,680
Speaker 2: money you want.

604
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 6: What's the best destination for you?

605
00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 5: Well, if he goes to Carolina, this offensive coordinator is

606
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 5: coach Bryce Young before, so there's that. I think Dave

607
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 5: Tepper would give him pretty much anything he wanted. So

608
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:25,480
Speaker 5: I think that that's part of it.

609
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:28,000
Speaker 6: Does he become a piece of the team, are even allowed?

610
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 1: I don't even know if you can do that.

611
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 2: If the first person who does that, the first owner

612
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 2: is not going to be well liked by the other

613
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,360
Speaker 2: other own No, they are not going to appreciate that

614
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 2: one little bit.

615
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:43,320
Speaker 5: Nope, the Chargers, I know, I'm trying to think of

616
00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 5: a situation which the quarterbacks already said, I don't know

617
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 5: that Justin Fields is the guy with the Bears. Just

618
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 5: don't we know Bryce Young is the guy Carolina. But

619
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 5: there is a lot to do, and it's not as

620
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 5: if the player choosing process in New England the last

621
00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 5: few years without Nick Cassario has gone well for the Patriots.

622
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 5: So I don't know if that, I don't know. The

623
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 5: Chargers feel like it's on paper, look at all their players. Yeah,

624
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 5: I think Belichick can tighten all that up. But it's

625
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 5: the Spanos family and they've never never put out a

626
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 5: bunch of money for a coach or a player or

627
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 5: you know, they had squabbles with you know, uh, with

628
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 5: Dan Fouts back in nineteen eighty three, which kind of

629
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 5: impacted the nineteen eighty three draft and all that. So

630
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 5: there's always been that with the Spanhos family. So I

631
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:32,680
Speaker 5: just don't know that that makes sense. Even though there's

632
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 5: been rumblings about how much Bill wants to be at

633
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 5: the beach. Look, really, really he's going to go to

634
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:39,400
Speaker 5: the beach on a Wednesday.

635
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 6: No, He's like, no, but his girlfriends well, apparently he

636
00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 6: broke up with his girlfriend. Yeah, I know, but that

637
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 6: was a while ago, while ago.

638
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 1: Well, there might be a new one, a new one.

639
00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 6: He was outside was that his somebody's house?

640
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 1: Where's she from? I don't know, because that's where the

641
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 1: job might go.

642
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 6: But that appealing.

643
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 2: You know what, if you're going to be outside a

644
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:02,480
Speaker 2: house naked, it's good to be in a warm weather environment.

645
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 1: Let me give you one.

646
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 5: And I don't think a I don't think this job

647
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 5: should open. I'm not totally sure that it will open,

648
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 5: but one day we didn't mention. I could absolutely see

649
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 5: him going back.

650
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 6: To the Giants. The Giants, are they really going to

651
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 6: get rid of table? I know they will, but.

652
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 5: I don't think they will. I don't, Okay, I don't

653
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 5: think they will. But Chargers I could. The Chargers just

654
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 5: are kind of ready made that they could handle Belichick

655
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,560
Speaker 5: and everything else that that would be interesting.

656
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 2: Want a little fun fact, go ahead. They're TV ratings stink.

657
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 2: They're in the number two market in the country. Chargers, Yes,

658
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 2: they stink. They're single digits in the NFL. It's not acceptable. No,

659
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:49,880
Speaker 2: LA is not It never was a good move. Now

660
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 2: you're gonna get buried not only by the Rams but

661
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 2: by LA itself, but the Lakers, by everything else.

662
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 6: They the other sports.

663
00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:02,840
Speaker 2: Beating basketball, hockey, and baseball carry a lot of weight

664
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 2: in that market, much more than most other markets, even.

665
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 1: When they're bad.

666
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 2: The Lakers, and you have the Clippers too, they carry

667
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 2: a lot of weight. You have the Dodgers a lot

668
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 2: of weight, and obviously the Kings do whatever they do.

669
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:17,319
Speaker 6: I'm not saying it's take it away from.

670
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 2: The Chargers, but it's just hard to get the ink

671
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,280
Speaker 2: for lack of a better, more updated reference.

672
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:24,439
Speaker 5: Let me get let me give you one that could

673
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 5: get kind of interesting. Okay, if it goes sideways for

674
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:30,680
Speaker 5: Mike McCarthy. Oh, it could always go sideways for Mike McCarthy.

675
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,759
Speaker 5: I mean, Parcells didn't love it there, so you would

676
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 5: think Belichick wouldn't. But can you imagine Belichick with the Cowboys.

677
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:39,240
Speaker 5: I'm trying to look at some others that Mike Jerry would.

678
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:39,759
Speaker 6: Love to have.

679
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,920
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick, he would handle it the way he handled Parcels.

680
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 1: I can't imagine that.

681
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,440
Speaker 5: DeVante Adams and Max Crosby the way that they have

682
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 5: sort of celebrated the last couple of weeks with these

683
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:57,000
Speaker 5: wins with Antonio Pierce, I can't imagine that they would

684
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:57,279
Speaker 5: be on.

685
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:01,359
Speaker 2: Board for Belichick to go. Right, You're right, they don't

686
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 2: want him. They don't want the Patriots even if he changes. Anyway,

687
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:07,719
Speaker 2: Let's get to some other stuff here. Who's better? All right,

688
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna do this one now. Division with the better

689
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:15,799
Speaker 2: chance to get two or more teams in the playoffs.

690
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 6: Let's do it division in the AFC.

691
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 2: Let's just stick to the AFC, all right, And I'm

692
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:24,799
Speaker 2: gonna give you some of the information here because I

693
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:27,319
Speaker 2: think the AFC South, you know, this could get very

694
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 2: interesting with possibly getting two or more teams in the postseason,

695
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,440
Speaker 2: because right now, look, you have the East with the

696
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 2: Bills at five and five? Can the Bills go on

697
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:38,879
Speaker 2: a run without Ken Dorsey Joe Brady now taking over

698
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,719
Speaker 2: the offense? Are the Jets gonna wake up? The Patriots

699
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,319
Speaker 2: are dead? Let's go to the West. The Raiders five

700
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,880
Speaker 2: and five? Hey, there's always a chance, right, But the

701
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 2: Chargers four and five?

702
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,839
Speaker 6: Can they get going? Denver starting to come up?

703
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:51,040
Speaker 3: Now?

704
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 6: Look, everybody's got games on the schedule.

705
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 2: That if they win them, if they perform, well, they

706
00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:59,840
Speaker 2: got a chance here, right. The AFC North probably does.

707
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 2: But are the Browns going to fade?

708
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:02,240
Speaker 3: Now?

709
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 6: Will the Steelers be able to hold up?

710
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:06,920
Speaker 2: Even though they've been outscored by everybody that they play?

711
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:09,320
Speaker 2: They have a six and three record. The Bengals should

712
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,280
Speaker 2: be okay. Look, they held their own with the Texans.

713
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 6: Did I just say it that way? They held their

714
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 6: own with the Texans.

715
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 2: Congratulations Bengals, you held your own, but you didn't win,

716
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:19,719
Speaker 2: so nice.

717
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:21,720
Speaker 6: Try try again next time.

718
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:27,359
Speaker 2: AFC South Colts five and five, Titans probably not, but

719
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 2: Texans obviously on the rise.

720
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,000
Speaker 6: Here thoughts, Well, the first.

721
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:34,120
Speaker 5: Name you said was Buffalo Bills, and I was like, Oh,

722
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 5: what's their schedule?

723
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:42,880
Speaker 1: Listen to this? Home Jets at Philly, bye week at

724
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:43,800
Speaker 1: Kansas City.

725
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:50,959
Speaker 5: Oh not good, Dallas at Chargers, Patriots at home at

726
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:54,759
Speaker 5: Dolphins to end the season. That's not good. They have

727
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,360
Speaker 5: to play it. That is, that is not a recipe

728
00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:58,520
Speaker 5: to end up nine to eight.

729
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:00,800
Speaker 2: Even No, they're playing some I mean, if you're playing

730
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:02,840
Speaker 2: the Chiefs, you're playing the two best teams in the

731
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 2: league right now.

732
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:04,480
Speaker 6: Good luck with that.

733
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 1: Yeah.

734
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 5: So because I think about I think about the East,

735
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 5: I think gets Dolphins Division to win right now because

736
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:11,839
Speaker 5: the Bills are just not playing. They got to play

737
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 5: that schedule. I think the AFC North, I've thought all

738
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:16,400
Speaker 5: along would get two teams in. I still think they

739
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,120
Speaker 5: get two. I'm just trying to figure out which teams

740
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:22,239
Speaker 5: and how they how they go about it. You know,

741
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,880
Speaker 5: the Bengals we saw obviously, but I feel like the

742
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 5: Bengals are flawed. I think they're flawed on the offensive line.

743
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,000
Speaker 5: And look, we've ran for one hundred and fifty on it.

744
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:31,200
Speaker 6: We win.

745
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 5: We haven't had a one hundred yard rusher all year

746
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 5: and motors for one hundred and fifty on them. Yeah,

747
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:41,399
Speaker 5: so their schedule goes Ravens, Steelers, Jaguars. Then they get

748
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:43,279
Speaker 5: then you think, okay, let's up a little bit. No,

749
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 5: they get the Colts playing well, they get the Vikings

750
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:49,879
Speaker 5: playing well, then they go at Pittsburgh at Kansas City,

751
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:50,680
Speaker 5: finished with Cleveland.

752
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,280
Speaker 1: So it's not real easy for the Bengals either.

753
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:58,879
Speaker 5: But I do think that Ravens Steelers Ravens Bengals could

754
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 5: end up. You could get to their I think the

755
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,719
Speaker 5: AFC South gets two. Okay, I think the AFC West

756
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:07,960
Speaker 5: gets one. I think they'll get the Chiefs. But I

757
00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:10,440
Speaker 5: know the Broncos are rising up. The Chargers are just

758
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:12,279
Speaker 5: the Chargers are just all over the place. For me,

759
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,600
Speaker 5: trying to figure them out is to nightmare because I

760
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 5: was on their bandwagon a couple of years ago, and

761
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 5: I'm like, you know what to keep let me down.

762
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 1: They got all the talent in the world and they

763
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:21,279
Speaker 1: finished nine to eight.

764
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 5: They got twenty seven point lead to Jacksonville and can't

765
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,160
Speaker 5: finish the game. So they're kind of all over the

766
00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 5: place to me. So I trust the Dolphins. I trust

767
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 5: two teams out of the AFC North, the Trust two

768
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,640
Speaker 5: out of the AFC South, and the Kansas City Chiefs.

769
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:39,080
Speaker 6: Yep, well that's.

770
00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:41,400
Speaker 1: Six, so there'll be one more. But those are the

771
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:43,439
Speaker 1: two I trust, the AFC North and AFC South.

772
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,839
Speaker 2: The North looks strong on paper, especially going into last

773
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:48,800
Speaker 2: week when they had all four teams in at the time,

774
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:51,960
Speaker 2: but it's shaky with the Steelers and the Browns. And

775
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 2: I'm not saying the Steelers are gonna have a losing

776
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,480
Speaker 2: season from here. They're six and three, but I don't

777
00:38:56,600 --> 00:39:00,760
Speaker 2: like the overall way they're playing. It's just too close

778
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,439
Speaker 2: to the vest Man. It feels very dangerous for them,

779
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 2: and they'll have Actually, you look at their schedules last

780
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:09,160
Speaker 2: two games though, Seahawks and Ravens.

781
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:10,759
Speaker 6: That could get really dicey for them.

782
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 2: Let's do this now, who's better better destination for Kyler

783
00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:21,320
Speaker 2: Murray if he's gone from Arizona. If he's gone from Arizona.

784
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you three teams here, the Falcons, the Vikings,

785
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 2: and the Titans, because I got a feeling when it's

786
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,440
Speaker 2: all said and done with the Titans, they might not

787
00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 2: feel so good about their quarterback situation. Again correct coming

788
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:36,960
Speaker 2: out of the season, and they might be looking again.

789
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:39,919
Speaker 2: And I don't know if he's a fit there. In fact,

790
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,359
Speaker 2: if Kyler Murray's available, where is.

791
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:44,319
Speaker 6: He a fit? But is he a fit for either

792
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 6: of those teams or any of those teams?

793
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 1: Landa Falcons?

794
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 5: Okay, just watching the Falcons up close, watching the Falcons

795
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 5: on tape a couple of times. Watch them the other day

796
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 5: against the Cardinals, and you think, Okay, they're finally giving

797
00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:59,759
Speaker 5: the ball to Jon Robinson, which they should have been

798
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 5: doing it even more than they have been.

799
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 1: So I don't know if he's banged up, maybe they're

800
00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 1: trying to hide whatever.

801
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:11,520
Speaker 5: But you put Kyler's creative excellence, Yeah, with that team,

802
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,640
Speaker 5: with what Arthur Smith can call, I feel like that

803
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:19,720
Speaker 5: would be a dangerous, dangerous offense now.

804
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what the contract gratifications are.

805
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:24,920
Speaker 5: The Vikings would be fun, but I think the Vikings

806
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,120
Speaker 5: have already I don't know the Vikings going into the

807
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,320
Speaker 5: season already kind of decided that Kirk wasn't gonna be

808
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:29,800
Speaker 5: there anymore.

809
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:31,080
Speaker 1: That I think they were ready to reset.

810
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:33,440
Speaker 5: I don't know, maybe what this team is looking at now, like, hey,

811
00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:35,880
Speaker 5: maybe we don't need to reset. Maybe we don't need

812
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 5: to reset. Maybe we just keep going with Josh Dobbs

813
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 5: and see what he can do.

814
00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 6: I'm not the season.

815
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:41,319
Speaker 1: I don't know.

816
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:42,560
Speaker 6: Well, we'll see where it ends up.

817
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:43,080
Speaker 1: I don't know.

818
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:45,239
Speaker 5: I mean, if he ends up playing well for him,

819
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:48,479
Speaker 5: they learned a lesson. They should have learned a lesson.

820
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:50,320
Speaker 5: Remember Case having a great year in twenty seventeen.

821
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,920
Speaker 1: What they do. They let Case walk and they and

822
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 1: they brought in.

823
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 5: Cousins and they've never really I mean, Case got in

824
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 5: the NFC Championship game. So I think it's the fault

825
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,560
Speaker 5: Falcons just because the talent around them. But Kyler would

826
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:06,040
Speaker 5: look kind of fun with Justin Jefferson, kJ Osbourne, t

827
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 5: J Hockinson, he could be part of their run game,

828
00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:13,719
Speaker 5: be interesting with Kevin O'Connell. But I would say the

829
00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:16,680
Speaker 5: Falcons just because woo, that gets kind of fun.

830
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:17,600
Speaker 1: And I think the Falcons.

831
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 5: I don't know what the Falcons contract situation is, but

832
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,279
Speaker 5: I would imagine they don't have a lot tied into

833
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:24,120
Speaker 5: a quarterback because it's Taylor Heineke and it's Desmon Ritter.

834
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:26,000
Speaker 1: So it's one on a rookie contract, one on.

835
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:29,279
Speaker 5: A pretty reasonable backup quarterback contract, so I would think

836
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,760
Speaker 5: money wise they could make it work. So Arthur Smith,

837
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:34,600
Speaker 5: all that talent with Kyler Murray, Well, let me ask

838
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 5: you this, Arthur Smith. Let's say the Falcons from here

839
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:40,399
Speaker 5: have seven wins, they're seven and ten.

840
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,319
Speaker 6: It's here three for Arthur Smith. Is he back?

841
00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:45,680
Speaker 5: That's a great question, and it's kind of been bandied

842
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:48,760
Speaker 5: about on the on the twitters and on the social media.

843
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:53,200
Speaker 5: I don't know that becomes that becomes kind of interesting,

844
00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:57,680
Speaker 5: but I don't know. I'm like, keep them listen. Lincoln

845
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:01,359
Speaker 5: Lincoln Riley is looking for a for an NFL coaching job.

846
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:04,680
Speaker 6: He takes Kyler Murray with him, Dan Atlanta so successful,

847
00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:06,480
Speaker 6: so successful, it's great.

848
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 1: That will circle the ur not college.

849
00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:10,920
Speaker 2: You can't bring your recruit with you this time, although

850
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:12,719
Speaker 2: if you have the number one pick then they have

851
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 2: nothing to say, so yeah, we'll see it.

852
00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:16,880
Speaker 5: But you won't have that. No, he wouldn't have that,

853
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 5: but he could bring Kyler Murray with him. But I

854
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:22,840
Speaker 5: I think Arthur's a really good coach because it feels

855
00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:24,239
Speaker 5: like he's been doing more or less.

856
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:25,880
Speaker 1: But now you look at him and go, wait a second.

857
00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:30,839
Speaker 5: Between Kyle Pitts Drake London, John Robinson, an offensive line

858
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:31,960
Speaker 5: that is one of the better ones.

859
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:32,239
Speaker 1: In the league.

860
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,960
Speaker 5: You're like, Okay, what's happening here, Let's go like this

861
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,279
Speaker 5: should be happening. Oh well, just wait till we get

862
00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:41,840
Speaker 5: our quarterback. Okay, well, then get your quarterback. But it

863
00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:43,319
Speaker 5: might be running out of time. So if they go

864
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:44,759
Speaker 5: seven and ten, I think he's going to be on

865
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:45,839
Speaker 5: a really hot seat.

866
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,040
Speaker 6: All right, Johnny, thanks a lot, got Mark, thank you.

867
00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:48,680
Speaker 1: Coming up.

868
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:53,000
Speaker 2: Injury report Refresher and Houston met that his minutes heart disease.

869
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,600
Speaker 2: How prevalent. You might be thin, but you might still

870
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:56,520
Speaker 2: be a candidate.

871
00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:57,520
Speaker 6: Yikes.

872
00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:01,360
Speaker 2: It's Texans Radio, all right. Final segment here on Texans

873
00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 2: Radio tonight. As we discussed earlier, injury report is out

874
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:08,879
Speaker 2: and limited today, grayl and Arnold. These are headlines because

875
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:10,759
Speaker 2: I'm not going to read all the names grayl and

876
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 2: Arnold with a calf who was not on the injury

877
00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,440
Speaker 2: report yesterday. So that's a bit of a red flag

878
00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:17,800
Speaker 2: right there. We'll keep our eye on that. The important

879
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:19,920
Speaker 2: one is tomorrow. Actually, as we saw from last week,

880
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:22,280
Speaker 2: the real important stuff is who shows up and plays

881
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:25,480
Speaker 2: in the game. George Fan shows up with a hip ouch.

882
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:28,480
Speaker 2: Don't want to see that because he was not on

883
00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:31,680
Speaker 2: the injury report yesterday. That means that's a recent development.

884
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:35,560
Speaker 2: Brevin Jordan with a foot Now, Brevin Jordan is a

885
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:37,439
Speaker 2: good bit of news here because he was a did

886
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 2: not participate yesterday, so he participates today.

887
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:41,799
Speaker 6: That's very good.

888
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:46,240
Speaker 2: Numerous guys were bumped up to full who were limited yesterday,

889
00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 2: including but not limited to Will Anderson Junior.

890
00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:51,879
Speaker 6: That was nice to see. Let's see who else.

891
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 2: Robert Woods was full after not even participating yesterday, so

892
00:43:57,360 --> 00:43:59,359
Speaker 2: it was good to see that. And we'll see how

893
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,440
Speaker 2: things play. Nico Collins was limited with a cave. He

894
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 2: was limited yesterday. Let's hope for the best for Nico.

895
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 2: Now let's get into Houston Methodist Minutes and it's doctor

896
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:12,440
Speaker 2: Kevin Listman, who we caught up with after the DeMar

897
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:16,759
Speaker 2: Hamlin situation occurred in that Bengals Bills game last year.

898
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 2: But let's talk about heart disease in general. Doctor, how's

899
00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 2: it going.

900
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:22,000
Speaker 7: I'm doing well.

901
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:23,840
Speaker 3: Mark, how are you doing well?

902
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:25,799
Speaker 6: Let's talk about heart issues.

903
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,719
Speaker 2: I know that you're one of the best in the business,

904
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:31,240
Speaker 2: no question about it, So I wanted to start here.

905
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 2: Do we have more or less problems with people having

906
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:36,400
Speaker 2: heart attacks.

907
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:37,719
Speaker 3: That kind of thing.

908
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:40,719
Speaker 2: Heart disease is it's still the number one cause of

909
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,279
Speaker 2: death among men above a certain age.

910
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:44,839
Speaker 6: How would you define it, doctor.

911
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:48,080
Speaker 7: Yes, Mark, it's still the number one killer. Car you've asked,

912
00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:52,000
Speaker 7: the disease is still the number one killer actually by

913
00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:55,480
Speaker 7: a long shot. One of the things that always amazes

914
00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:58,080
Speaker 7: my women who come in to see me is I

915
00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:00,480
Speaker 7: always ask them this question. And it's one that's a

916
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:04,560
Speaker 7: statistic that the American College of Cardiology and the American

917
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 7: Heart Association is trying to really get out there to women,

918
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,840
Speaker 7: is that it's the number one killer women. And a

919
00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:14,320
Speaker 7: lot of women are surprised by that fact. Is that

920
00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:16,880
Speaker 7: if you take all the cancers that kill women in combinement,

921
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:17,920
Speaker 7: doesn't equal heart disease.

922
00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:19,680
Speaker 6: That's amazing.

923
00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:25,719
Speaker 7: That's how much more men say number one killer. We're

924
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,840
Speaker 7: seeing a little bit of a plateau effect in the

925
00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:33,440
Speaker 7: instance of heart disease around the country. Although it is

926
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:38,080
Speaker 7: the number one killer, we are still seeing a substantial

927
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:43,120
Speaker 7: number of cases. Interestingly, some types of heart attacks are

928
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:45,439
Speaker 7: on the fall because we think that what we're doing

929
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:51,000
Speaker 7: with intervention, with exercise, diet control and cholesterol is really

930
00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:54,280
Speaker 7: making an impact on the instance of heart attacks, interestingly,

931
00:45:54,360 --> 00:46:00,360
Speaker 7: but the diagnosis of heart disease is still there. We

932
00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:04,239
Speaker 7: are bracing, though, for the storm that's about to come,

933
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:07,120
Speaker 7: which is in the form of heart disease that is

934
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:11,959
Speaker 7: secondary to diabetes. Diabetes is definitely on the rise, and

935
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:14,600
Speaker 7: so we're bracing for what's going to happen in the future,

936
00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:16,839
Speaker 7: which is probably going to be a surgeon.

937
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:17,920
Speaker 3: Heart disease doctor.

938
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,680
Speaker 2: I often hear about people having heart attacks who you

939
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:23,520
Speaker 2: would think would not be candidates. They're in good shape,

940
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:26,880
Speaker 2: they might be runners. You hear about this stuff. How

941
00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:29,080
Speaker 2: common is that? What goes into that?

942
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:32,279
Speaker 7: Well, we know genetics plays a very large role in

943
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:37,560
Speaker 7: this disease. It's one of those chronic diseases also along

944
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:44,239
Speaker 7: with cancer and other neurologic diseases where genetics plays a

945
00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:49,360
Speaker 7: large role. And so we get people that have that

946
00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:52,640
Speaker 7: live very clean lives, they do everything right, and it's

947
00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:55,440
Speaker 7: always sort of frustrating when they come in and we

948
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,720
Speaker 7: have to die when we get diagnosed with heart disease.

949
00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:01,440
Speaker 7: It's just out of the blue. Most though, these people

950
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:05,480
Speaker 7: have both a genetic predisposition and also an environmental problem.

951
00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:08,280
Speaker 7: It could be cholesterol. It could be smoking, although smoking's

952
00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:13,760
Speaker 7: on the decline. It could be diabetes as we mentioned before,

953
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:16,680
Speaker 7: and hypertension. Those are kind of the big ones. And

954
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:21,520
Speaker 7: so it's usually a genetic predisposition combined with something environmental

955
00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:25,759
Speaker 7: that adds to it. But there are we're learning more

956
00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:28,239
Speaker 7: and more about these genes that control whether you get

957
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:31,640
Speaker 7: heart disease or whether you are safe or even protected

958
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:36,239
Speaker 7: from heart disease. And so a lot of these unfortunate

959
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:38,279
Speaker 7: people who get diagnosed with heart disease or have a

960
00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:41,719
Speaker 7: heart attack with really no foreseeable risk factors, it's usually

961
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:42,640
Speaker 7: a genetic problem.

962
00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:45,959
Speaker 2: All right, there's doctor Kevin Listman from Houston Methodist. More

963
00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:49,040
