1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,840
Speaker 1: Hello Texans, Welcome to the show originating from NRG Stadium,

2
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:07,520
Speaker 1: the Hyundai Texans Radio Studio, Mark Vandermere with John Harris

3
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:12,119
Speaker 1: with you as will be on Tomorrow, Thursday, Friday, and

4
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,319
Speaker 1: get you ready for Sunday as the Texans take on

5
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:16,919
Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints at seven o'clock kick right here

6
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:19,159
Speaker 1: and on the Bowl one hundred point three FM, and

7
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,800
Speaker 1: a nationally televised game on Fox twenty six as well.

8
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,800
Speaker 1: That's the third straight national window for the Texans, whose

9
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 1: game against the Patriots was cleared on NFL Network. That

10
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 1: was the Patriots broadcast, Then the Texans broadcast with Kevin

11
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 1: Coogler and d Kalou and Drew Doherty got cleared on

12
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:39,599
Speaker 1: the NFL Network platform on Saturday afternoon, but you saw

13
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: it live here in town on ABC thirteen. Anyway, that's

14
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 1: just broadcast stuff. Let's get into it with the general

15
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: manager now of the Houston Texans, Nick Cassario, as the

16
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 1: team is a big week, joint practices with the Saints

17
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 1: called off, but a pretty big practice schedule, a very

18
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: important prep schedule in place as the team prepares to

19
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: face New Orleans in the preseason finale Sunday, night at seven.

20
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: Let's get into it, Nick, how's it going. Hell, it's

21
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,320
Speaker 1: good to be here, It's good to be in Houston.

22
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 1: The joint practice is canceled, all right, Why don't we

23
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 1: get into that a little bit. How that came about,

24
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: Demiko Ryan said some things about it. I know it

25
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 1: affects the entire organization though support staff included.

26
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:20,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot of people that are involved in

27
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 2: something like this. I think it's very similar to what

28
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,119
Speaker 2: happens during the course of the regular season. You kind

29
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 2: of have a schedule, a plan of how you think

30
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 2: things may or may not go, but the reality is

31
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 2: you always have to be able to adjust and adapt

32
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 2: to the circumstances. So we talked about it after the game,

33
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 2: Demiko talked to Dennis. Then we kind of decided in

34
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 2: the end, this was kind of the best thing, you know,

35
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 2: for us.

36
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 3: So it's a good opportunity for us. Amiko mentioned this

37
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 3: the other day.

38
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:46,639
Speaker 2: Just to kind of go through sort of a regular

39
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 2: season a week here, it's kind of dry run in

40
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 2: terms of scheduling, planning, how to treat the off day,

41
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 2: some of those types of things. So have a lot

42
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 2: of respect for the Saints organization. Dennis Mickey. Mickey's been

43
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 2: there a long time, so you know the fact that

44
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 2: they had enough like ability and were accepted to the idea.

45
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 2: I think in the end, everybody's just trying to figure

46
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 2: out what's the best situation for their individual team. So

47
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 2: looking forward to the challenge that they present as a

48
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 2: team on Sunday, and you know, we re evaluate each

49
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 2: year as we go. I think we certainly got a

50
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 2: lot out of the practice against Miami, probably would have

51
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:20,799
Speaker 2: got a lot out of the practice against the Saints.

52
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 2: I think just as we looked at the arc of

53
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 2: the week and kind of where we were the team

54
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,679
Speaker 2: with certain spots, just felt in the end this was

55
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 2: the right thing, you know, for us and the players.

56
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 4: Nick in totality the week against the Dolphins, from the

57
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,959
Speaker 4: two Joyt practices to the game. Obviously a lot of

58
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,920
Speaker 4: learning moments in the game that we that fans got

59
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,799
Speaker 4: a chance to see, but the joint practice as well.

60
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 4: How did you think the week went?

61
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 3: Yeah?

62
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 2: Interesting, you know, Wednesday had a pretty good day both

63
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,359
Speaker 2: sides of the ball. Thursday probably Miami had the edge,

64
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 2: and then the game in the end, Miami had the edge,

65
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 2: and I think some of the things that showed up

66
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 2: during the course of the week. Some of the things

67
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 2: that we can certainly improve or get fixed, those manifest

68
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 2: themselves in the game a little bit. Which that's the

69
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 2: reality what the NFL is. If you do the things

70
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 2: you need to do in a weekly basis, give umself

71
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 2: a chance. If you don't, they're probably gonna be in

72
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 2: a little tougher situation. So, you know, didn't turn the

73
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 2: ball over or able to get the turnover, but didn't

74
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 2: take advantage of the field position there, and then kind

75
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 2: of the long run at the end of the half.

76
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 2: A couple of the long runs kind of you know,

77
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 2: made the score look the way that it did. So,

78
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 2: but we were able to evaluate some players. I think

79
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 2: one of the things that you've seen, you've seen some

80
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 2: players improve. You think you've seen some players take advantage

81
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 2: of their opportunity. So it's really one day at a time,

82
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 2: one week at a time, and then whatever the opportunity is,

83
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 2: it's up to the players go out there and perform.

84
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 2: And we'll talk about this probably is a'll be bit

85
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 2: closer to the next week. So as we look to

86
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 2: the roster, it's about it's not about fifty three players.

87
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 2: It's gonna be more than fifty three players, So we're

88
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 2: probably gonna have some players that are off the roster

89
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 2: that canna provide some depth. They're gonna have some players

90
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 2: on the roster that provides some depth. They may or

91
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 2: may not be ready to play. So it's getting the

92
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 2: right players with the right mindset, with the right mentality

93
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 2: that we feel at some point we're gonna to be

94
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 2: able to use any given Sunday.

95
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 3: Nick Joint practices. You can work on a lot of stuff.

96
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: Tackling is probably not one of them, as they're just

97
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: sort of a wrap up kind of mentality. Is that

98
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: one of those things that only game experience can improve.

99
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a great point mark probably early in the year.

100
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 2: Tackling is probably one area you'll probably see a lot

101
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,599
Speaker 2: of bad tackling, but it's something that you can drill,

102
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 2: something that you can work on. Really, tackling is about

103
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,480
Speaker 2: a mindset, it's about technique, it's about body position, it's

104
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 2: about leveraging the ball. So it goes back to and

105
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 2: Dimico has talked about this endlessly. In the end, it's

106
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 2: about basic fundamentals and techniques. So how you approach the ball,

107
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 2: how you attack the ball, how you practice tackling without

108
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 2: bringing him to the ground. It's getting the right position,

109
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 2: the thud, the rap. You just can't drive him to

110
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 2: the ground. So once you get into a game, you're

111
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 2: getting to tackle well or not tackle well. So you know,

112
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,919
Speaker 2: tackling is always something that you can improve. But early

113
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 2: in the year, it's say, tackling is one of those

114
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:58,280
Speaker 2: probably skills or areas that not everybody is probably as

115
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 2: equipped as they should be. But the more you play

116
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,039
Speaker 2: and the more you get in game situations can teach

117
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 2: off of it. Hopefully you can improve as a year progresses.

118
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,359
Speaker 5: Nick, how's the preseason life changed? And this is what

119
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 5: I mean.

120
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 4: For a long time, when there were four preseason games,

121
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 4: kind of there was a ramp up to game three.

122
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 4: You saw a little bit more of the starters quote

123
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 4: unquote in game three, but then by game four it

124
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:22,720
Speaker 4: was you're getting ready for the regular season. There was

125
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 4: a lot of guys fighting for a last roster spots

126
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 4: getting at game four.

127
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 5: Has it changed the way that you look at it.

128
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 5: Is it still a ramp.

129
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 4: Up to game three or is it every team is

130
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 4: looking at it differently based on where they are in

131
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 4: their evolution.

132
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a good point, John.

133
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,160
Speaker 2: I think as you look at the league, every year

134
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 2: kind of changes what the team's philosophy is, how they

135
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 2: approach it, And I think the way coach Reid approaches

136
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,599
Speaker 2: it in Kansas City has been consistent how he plays,

137
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 2: and I think when you look at coach mcveigh's done

138
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 2: with the Rams, they've had a different philosophy previous years.

139
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 2: This year is a little bit different because they have

140
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 2: a little different dynamic. I think really what you're doing

141
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 2: is evaluating your team dynamic. Are you as a team,

142
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 2: what do you think you need to do to best

143
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 2: prepare yourself for Week one? What players do you really

144
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 2: need to get to get evaluation of playing football? So

145
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 2: I think there's a lot of things that go into it.

146
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 2: To your original part of the question, it's just shorter.

147
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 2: You have less practice opportunities before the first game, So

148
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 2: it doesn't mean it's where. It's just it's the same

149
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 2: for everybody. So there's still three games instead of four.

150
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 2: There's the reality is you include the ramp up, there's

151
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:30,040
Speaker 2: less really practices that you have, so each year is different,

152
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 2: but you're still trying to put a foundation in place,

153
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,279
Speaker 2: get your system in place, give the players an opportunity

154
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,720
Speaker 2: to go out there and compete for different spots, evaluate

155
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 2: players that you really need to see play, and then

156
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 2: try to get the team ready for week one. So

157
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 2: you're doing a lot of things all at once, and

158
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 2: really I think the focus is where you are as

159
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 2: a team and what do you need to get done

160
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 2: and what do you need to get accomplished, and then

161
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,799
Speaker 2: you build a preseason plan accordingly.

162
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 1: Well, and the plan changed this week obviously. Can you

163
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,279
Speaker 1: discuss the benefits of being home this week instead of

164
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,479
Speaker 1: on the road and the game We kind of feel

165
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,799
Speaker 1: that there is going on right now with the practice

166
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:04,840
Speaker 1: schedule and everything else.

167
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it's as close to a game week as

168
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 2: we can get. So we'll work against ourselves. But a

169
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 2: part of that, we're working off of cards, so which

170
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 2: we'd have to do during the regular season as well,

171
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 2: So we're gonna service one another. So there'll be a

172
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 2: good on good component where our offense works against our defense,

173
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 2: but they'll also be our offense versus New Orleans defense

174
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 2: and vice versa. So the process that goes into that,

175
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 2: you have an opportunity to introduce that to your players.

176
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 2: Here's what we need in this situation. Here's what we

177
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 2: need on that. Look, certain players are gonna be asked

178
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 2: to do more than others in those respective spots. So

179
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 2: let's say that's part of it, Mark, and then the

180
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 2: other is just the actual scheduling. So what we're gonna

181
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 2: do lifting wise, how we're gonna handle the team, What

182
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 2: do you do on your off day? How do you

183
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 2: structure your day So the first time you do it

184
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 2: isn't the week of Baltimore, because even once we get

185
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 2: through excuse me, New Orleans, we'll cut the team down Tuesday,

186
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 2: then we have Wednesday Thursday, and then the players are

187
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 2: off for a mandatory three day period Friday, Saturday Sunday.

188
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 3: Then we'll come back Monday.

189
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 2: So as best we can, we'll try to simulate what

190
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 2: a normal week.

191
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,679
Speaker 3: Would look like during the course of the week. Practice

192
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 3: during the week.

193
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 2: Friday is a little bit of a lighter day, travel

194
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 2: on Saturday, play the game on Sunday, come home and

195
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 2: have your day after the game. So that's probably where

196
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 2: we are, So we'll try to maximize it and to

197
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 2: get as much out of it as we possibly can.

198
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 4: I feel like we need to remind fans, listeners, followers

199
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 4: this Every year the fifty three man roster isn't something

200
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 4: that you you know, walk like you know the Ten Commandments,

201
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 4: like this is our roster. We all we've talked about this.

202
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 4: It's a fluid process all the way along. But at

203
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 4: some point, Nick, you do have to say these, At

204
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 4: this point in time, you are the fifty three guys

205
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 4: on this roster. When for you does that sort of

206
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 4: crystallize in your mind? Okay, I feel like these guys

207
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 4: are gonna be on the roster, these guys, man, maybe

208
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 4: we need to see.

209
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 5: A little bit more.

210
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 4: When does that sort of crystallize in your mind? Does

211
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 4: this become the week or is it before this? When

212
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 4: does it kind of happen for you?

213
00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're pretty close. We talk about as a staff.

214
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 2: Demiko and I, as a matter of fact, talked about

215
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 2: it this morning. We've kind of talked about it on

216
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 2: a regular basis each week. The reality is you're probably

217
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:15,319
Speaker 2: seventy five eighty percent there after week one, candidly, and

218
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,840
Speaker 2: there are gonna be some things that crop up. Injuries

219
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 2: may force you to make a decision somewhere else. So

220
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,199
Speaker 2: really it's just about managing numbers, managing the roster a

221
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 2: little bit and you're prepared for whatever we have to

222
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 2: do next week. I mean, you're moving on from players,

223
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 2: but you're really not moving on for players because some

224
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 2: of the discussion is, hey, look we can't carry on

225
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 2: the roster. We want to continue to work with you

226
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 2: in a practice squad. Come back tomorrow at noon, and

227
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 2: if you're not claimed then is if nothing changed. So

228
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 2: there's that period of uncertainty for a player whether they

229
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,679
Speaker 2: want me here, where am I going to be? But

230
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 2: the reality is we're going to wanting to work with

231
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 2: more than fifty three players that are on the actual roster.

232
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 3: So I think the big thing from our.

233
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 2: Perspective is just be honest with the communication, kind of

234
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 2: tell them where they are. It's not an end, it

235
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 2: could be a start for a lot of people. So

236
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:06,960
Speaker 2: I think it's just how you articulate it and how

237
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 2: you present it. And I think if you're just sincere

238
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 2: and honest with the players, they appreciate that.

239
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 1: It's got to be interesting. Because we discussed this a

240
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 1: bit with Demiko. Sometimes you're just saying goodbye for now.

241
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 1: It could be twenty four hours, but it could be

242
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 1: another year or so and they're back.

243
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 3: You never know.

244
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 1: Dari was here before Jacob Martin, and those are just

245
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:23,319
Speaker 1: two examples.

246
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 3: No, you really never know exactly. I think it's a

247
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 3: great point.

248
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 2: So that's why you just try to be honest and

249
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:32,199
Speaker 2: fair and understand that it's a hard time for everybody

250
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 2: when you go through this this dynamic.

251
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 3: It's not easy.

252
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 2: It's not easy on the players, not easy on the coaches,

253
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 2: not easy on the staff, it's hard on their families.

254
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 3: So we're cognizant of that. You know, we all have

255
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 3: a job to do.

256
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 2: I think we all understand when we enter this business

257
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:52,599
Speaker 2: there's gonna be some difficult situations or you know, discussions

258
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 2: that you're going to have along the way. So try

259
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 2: to handle it as professionally as respectful as you can.

260
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,959
Speaker 2: I think the players appreciate that. And you really never

261
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 2: or no, you're closing a book. There's times when a

262
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 2: player is gonna come back, but there also might be

263
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 2: time where you're closing a book for good. So always

264
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,679
Speaker 2: keep an open mind, always keep the door open, and

265
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 2: just try to make the right decision and a good

266
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 2: decision for the team at the present time.

267
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 4: Okay, so my favorite segment, and you know what it

268
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:19,960
Speaker 4: is every single week that we sit down with you.

269
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:24,199
Speaker 5: We're playing the insert name of team here, I.

270
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 2: Say, but we'll go through it.

271
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 4: But like but like your scouts, you send them out

272
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 4: to do advanced work, right, and so they do the

273
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:33,559
Speaker 4: work so that when it comes time to say, hey,

274
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 4: give me the grade on this guy, they've already done

275
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 4: the work.

276
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 5: Well, we play the Saints later in the year. You

277
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:38,319
Speaker 5: just have to do your work now.

278
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 3: You have to be correctly.

279
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 5: But I know, you know this team.

280
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 4: I don't know who will play, but just the Saints

281
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 4: in general, whether we're gonna see, whether we're gonna see

282
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:47,200
Speaker 4: these guys or not.

283
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 5: What about this team? What's kind of the scouting port

284
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 5: in the Saints.

285
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, a really good football team with a lot of

286
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 2: good players. And I think they have a fairly well

287
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 2: established program, even though coach Payton isn't there. I'd say

288
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 2: there's a lot of remnants, a lot of hallmarks of

289
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,440
Speaker 2: Sean and the imprint he left on the program. I

290
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 2: think when you start with Mickey, you know, Mickey is

291
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 2: one of the longest tenured I think general managers in

292
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 2: the NFL, SO has done a great job of building

293
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 2: the team. You know, Coach Allen has kind of been

294
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 2: there at different points. You know, they've made some key

295
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 2: acquisitions here, I would say over the last few years.

296
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 2: Obviously signed Derek in the offseason was big Mike's coming back. Offensively,

297
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 2: I think a Lave is as good of a player

298
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 2: that nobody really talks about in his position to.

299
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,559
Speaker 3: Kind of reshape the tight end position here a little bit.

300
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 2: And Kamara is probably one of the best, say, all

301
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 2: around backs that there is in the league. I think

302
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 2: they're working through some things on the offensive line, got

303
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 2: some good players, also have some things they're trying to

304
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,679
Speaker 2: figure out, you know, on their end, but they've had

305
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 2: a lot of good players in that program for a

306
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,760
Speaker 2: long time. And then defensively, I mean Cam Jordan is

307
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 2: a player who honestly not a lot of people talk

308
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 2: a lot about. He's probably gonna go down as one

309
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 2: of the greatest history, greatest players in the history of

310
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,839
Speaker 2: the organization. You know, just extended his contracts so he

311
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,559
Speaker 2: can retire as a Saint. They've probab we had more

312
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 2: changes on the defensive side of the ball than maybe

313
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 2: they have offensively. Uh drafted Berze the Clemson kid you know,

314
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 2: in the first round, who we did quite a bit

315
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 2: of work on so good front tomorrow. Davis is another

316
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 2: player who has been a really solid, steady, consistent player.

317
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 2: UH drafted Alante Taylor in the second round, second or

318
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 2: third round last year. You know, Robi's there a lot

319
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,079
Speaker 2: of more. It's one of the better corners in the league.

320
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 2: So they're a very talented team when you actually look

321
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 2: at them, you know, top to bottom, so be a

322
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 2: good challenge regardless of who plays or who doesn't play.

323
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,719
Speaker 2: You know, they've played Jamis offensively. Jamis Is basically him

324
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,679
Speaker 2: and Hayter have taken the snaps here, you know, the preseason.

325
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 2: So it looks like they have a pretty good group

326
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 2: of quarterback top to bottom. So experienced team with a

327
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 2: lot of high quality players with an influx of i'd

328
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 2: say some youth. Drafted Kendre Miller, the TCU kid there

329
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 2: in the middle rounds this season. So it's good football

330
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 2: team with a lot of talented players. So we'll see

331
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,199
Speaker 2: him this week and then to your point, John, we'll

332
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:56,719
Speaker 2: see him a little bit later on. So it'd be

333
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,080
Speaker 2: interesting to kind of see you know, it'll be a

334
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 2: good kind of initial introduction to the team as well.

335
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 1: What about the environment, because as a preseason game, goes

336
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 1: this is a pretty raucous setting, which is good prep

337
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 1: for Baltimore in a couple of weeks.

338
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, it has a tendency to be very loud in

339
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 2: there been in that stadium a number of times, not

340
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 2: on the right end, and you basically run off the

341
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 2: turf and you can't hear yourself think sometimes. So yeah,

342
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 2: it's a loud environment. It's in door. I think the

343
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 2: difference is indoors versus outdoors. But say Baltimore's outdoor venues

344
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 2: as loud as an outdoor venue is in a league,

345
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 2: So there'll be some things that we can experience being

346
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 2: on the road, being in a loud environment, being in

347
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 2: a hostile environment, and see how the team handles it.

348
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 2: So never an easy place to play in New Orleans

349
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 2: won't be an easy place to play in Baltimore in

350
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 2: a week one.

351
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 4: All right, there's nothing you can do about it now, Nick,

352
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 4: I was curious about this, and I'm going to use

353
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 4: twenty seventeen as an example. In twenty seventeen, when you

354
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 4: were with New England, we had joint practices with you

355
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 4: guys up at the Greenbrier, then flew here and played

356
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 4: a preseason game, and then we play you guys at

357
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 4: week three.

358
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 5: I can't remember what week we played the Saints.

359
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 4: But is there any issues that of playing a team

360
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 4: in the preseason versus playing a team in the regular season.

361
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 4: I mean, you've may have seen the same players, but

362
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 4: is there anything to be gleaned from, Hey we played

363
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 4: in preseason. Hey we need to be on a lookout

364
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 4: for this. Is there anything with that at all?

365
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 5: Really?

366
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 2: The big thing is probably maybe more operationally, how they sub,

367
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 2: the pace of sub, how they do it, signal, don't signal,

368
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 2: some of those types of things, the schematics. You're going

369
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 2: to see things in preparation going into the game from

370
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 2: the weeks before, however weeks it is, and any end.

371
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 2: It's a very personnel driven league and matchup week to week,

372
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 2: So how they deploy their people, maybe how they use them,

373
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 2: those are some of the things that they're going to

374
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 2: kind of as you go, you'll see, but it's probably

375
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 2: more an operational front for the most part.

376
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 3: It'll be pretty vanilla.

377
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 2: Whatever your system is, your system, and not all of

378
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 2: a sudden it just going to come up with a

379
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 2: brand new system six weeks from now or however long

380
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 2: we play them. So more than anything, you're just maybe

381
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 2: a smidge more familiar with the players and the operation

382
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 2: and just their cadence of maybe how they play offensively,

383
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 2: how quick they get to line the scrimmage, how quick

384
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 2: they getting to play in a huddle, you know those

385
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 2: types of things.

386
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 3: So I got this question.

387
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 1: Somebody said, it's a young team, right, the Texans, And

388
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 1: I said, yeah, they're a young team, but got some

389
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 1: vets at key position groups all over the place. So

390
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 1: how would you characterize what you've seen so far. I

391
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 1: know we're not down to the cuts yet and all

392
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 1: of that, but based on what you've seen in camp, Nick,

393
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 1: so far.

394
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 3: We're a hybrid, I guess, young and old.

395
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 2: So yeah, a number of the veteran players that we

396
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 2: signed the off season have come into done a great

397
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 2: job with said, say, their play, their performance, their leadership.

398
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 2: And then I think the attitude of the younger players

399
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 2: from the time they walked in the building and to

400
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 2: now has been exemplary. So you know, I think we're

401
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 2: happy with the people that are in the building. We

402
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 2: brought them in here for a reason and they've been

403
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 2: able to kind of blend or work well together. So

404
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,040
Speaker 2: we're still kind of in the infantile stages of just

405
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 2: really putting this team together for the twenty three season.

406
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,080
Speaker 2: We're getting close to the end here, but take a

407
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 2: lot of work. Everybody's had the right mindset and the

408
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 2: right attitude. In the end, it's about just taking it

409
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 2: one day at a time, just trying to do the

410
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 2: right things consistently over the course of a long period

411
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 2: of time. But the players have done everything that Demiko

412
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 2: and the staff have asked them to do with the

413
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:17,399
Speaker 2: right mindset. In Indian it comes down to execution. Are

414
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,159
Speaker 2: you doing the things football wise you need to do

415
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 2: to win football games? I would say, you know, the

416
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 2: other night was a good example. We didn't do enough.

417
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 2: There was some positives, but we didn't do enough from

418
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:28,199
Speaker 2: a football standpoint. So can we improve on some of

419
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 2: those things, get some of those corrected, and then build

420
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 2: on some of the things that we did well. And

421
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:33,919
Speaker 2: that's where you really want to see your team make

422
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 2: strides and move forward.

423
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 4: Nick, I think you have to find a way to

424
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,880
Speaker 4: bring Will Anderson out of his shell. I think he's

425
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 4: holding back a little bit. I kid about that Week

426
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 4: one is Baltimore and it's gonna be here a lot

427
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 4: sooner than we think, what's the process nick for getting

428
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,199
Speaker 4: ready for Baltimore right now? And I know it's not

429
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,439
Speaker 4: this week and it's obviously a couple of weeks, but

430
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 4: still it's gonna it's gonna be here. What's kind of

431
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 4: the processing getting ready for Baltimore, especially breaking in a

432
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,640
Speaker 4: new offense coordinator, offensive scheme with Lamar, et cetera.

433
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:05,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, we have resources allocated to watching. You know,

434
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,640
Speaker 2: we were at Baltimore's first preseason game, probably had something we're

435
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,439
Speaker 2: working on really the first three in season opponents. So

436
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 2: by the time next week rolls around, we'll pretty much

437
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,679
Speaker 2: have the team evaluated, we'll have the reports written. So

438
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,439
Speaker 2: we're focused on the league, but we're also hyper focused on,

439
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 2: you know, that first opponent. I'm getting prepared for that

440
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:28,520
Speaker 2: understanding there's gonna be a newness element that's involved Baltimore wise,

441
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 2: especially offensively.

442
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:31,359
Speaker 3: So not so I mean.

443
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:34,160
Speaker 2: There's players, there's a player component, but really more schematics

444
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,879
Speaker 2: with coach Monkin and his addition to the staff, and

445
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 2: then defensively second year for you know, coach McDonald there

446
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 2: and what they do. They kind of have some new players.

447
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,440
Speaker 2: They've been dealing with a lot of things in training camp,

448
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:48,439
Speaker 2: you know, similar to most teams dealing with players that

449
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 2: are in, that are out, that are injured, whatever whatever

450
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 2: they're dealing with. So no, we're certainly preparing for multiple

451
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 2: things at once, getting ready for New Orleans from a

452
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 2: football playing coaching standpoint, But then we also have the

453
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,919
Speaker 2: scouting staff kind of looking ahead to Baltimore a little bit,

454
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 2: starting to build a scout and report on that. So

455
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 2: by the time the New New Orleans game is over,

456
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 2: we flip the page and we start to get ready

457
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 2: for Baltimore, and then once their team is put together,

458
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:14,639
Speaker 2: knowing who the players are on the fifty three and

459
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 2: also knowing who the players are on the practice squad,

460
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 2: because at any point those players can be elevated.

461
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,959
Speaker 1: Nick, if I go on a Cafe Dumont, run, how

462
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 1: many begnet should I get for you?

463
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 3: Johnny? You're asking John, I've been to New Orleans very often.

464
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 5: So have you had a Cafe New mom Beigne?

465
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 3: I don't think I have. I know that New shocks

466
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 3: a lot of I wouldn't start.

467
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 1: It's you know, don't start, Just say no, they're highly

468
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:44,119
Speaker 1: have it for that one charg grilled oysters at drugs. Okay,

469
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,480
Speaker 1: that's good too, but probably not on your menu these days,

470
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 1: probably not any days.

471
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 3: Nick, thanks a lot for joining us. Thanks, guys, appreciate it.

472
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:54,919
Speaker 1: There's the GM, Nick Cassio, and if you want to

473
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:58,040
Speaker 1: see that video of that conversation, it'll be up on

474
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,639
Speaker 1: YouTube soon enough, if it's not there all ready. And

475
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 1: our conversation with Demiko Ryans yesterday is up on YouTube

476
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 1: if you want to see Demico, me and Johnny probably

477
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 1: not so much the faces for radio kind of thing,

478
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,239
Speaker 1: And I get it all right. The team's gonna have

479
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: a practice schedule Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and we'll have interviews

480
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,680
Speaker 1: and sound bites and things like that as they'll meet

481
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 1: the media. But it's not going to be like the

482
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:23,440
Speaker 1: normal training camp barrage of interviews after every single practice.

483
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 1: They are more in a regular season mode right now.

484
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,680
Speaker 1: Locker room availability, that kind of thing. So you'll see

485
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:33,640
Speaker 1: how you get your Texans content consumption in the next

486
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 1: few days and you'll see how it changes. But look,

487
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 1: you'll still get it all right here and on Houston

488
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 1: Texans dot com and on the Texans app, all the

489
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,160
Speaker 1: sports radio six to ten guys, we'll have you covered

490
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 1: as well. Coming up Johnny and I play more likely

491
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: to happen and it's fun. We've got Anthony Richardson appearing,

492
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor, Damian Pierce not really in person, but we

493
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 1: talk about them.

494
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 3: So just stay with us. You'll get the ideas soon enough.

495
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 1: It's Texans Radio continuing on the program tonight. Great to

496
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: have with us, Mark Vandermere and John Harris with you

497
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,840
Speaker 1: as the team is in a regular season kind of

498
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:09,479
Speaker 1: mode here, even though it's still technically training camp or

499
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 1: theoretically or one or the other or both, because the

500
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,480
Speaker 1: team plays the Saints on Sunday Day off today, which

501
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 1: is pretty typical for a regular season week, and then

502
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 1: practice tomorrow, Thursday, Friday, travel Saturday, beat the Saints Sunday night.

503
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 3: Looking forward to it.

504
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: But Johnny, are you ready now for the game that

505
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,399
Speaker 1: swept the nation a long time ago and still does

506
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 1: more likely to happen?

507
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 5: Yes?

508
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 3: Are you ready to?

509
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 5: All right? Let's do it.

510
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 3: I'm all right. First one more likely to happen?

511
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:44,679
Speaker 1: Damian Pierce one thousand yards this year or wait for it,

512
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor one thousand yards because who knows? Is he

513
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,440
Speaker 1: gonna hold out? What's going to happen? Will he play

514
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,640
Speaker 1: is even healthy. We don't know. These things more likely

515
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:57,159
Speaker 1: to happen.

516
00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 4: Go Damian Pierce a thousand years who So let's say

517
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 4: that Damien just just subtract two games from seventeen. Just

518
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 4: Damien get banged up, you know, spran ankle here, going

519
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 4: into a bye week. You need a little bit more time.

520
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 5: Whatever.

521
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:13,879
Speaker 4: I'd like to see him play seventeen. Let's say he

522
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 4: gets fifteen fifteen to get a thousand. If you go

523
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:21,879
Speaker 4: for seventy yards a game, doesn't sound like a whole lot.

524
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 4: But if you go for seventy yards a game for

525
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 4: fifteen games, that's one thousand, fifty yards one zero five zero.

526
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 4: I think Damien can do that because he's gonna have

527
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:33,440
Speaker 4: They're gonna be a couple of games where they're gonna

528
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 4: get stimy. This just happens, and he's gonna have a

529
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,160
Speaker 4: couple of games where he goes over over one hundred,

530
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:38,879
Speaker 4: say four or five of those games he goes over

531
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 4: one hundred. He's at ten to fifty easy. The Jonathan

532
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 4: Taylor situation, no clue. My gut tells me that he's

533
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 4: gonna stay in the building, but not gonna be available.

534
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 4: He's gonna be in the building. He's gonna hold in

535
00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 4: a hold in, He's gonna hold in for as long

536
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,920
Speaker 4: as possible, kind of like Watson a little bit. Yeah,

537
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 4: a different way of course, right, And I think they're

538
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 4: gonna I think they're gonna keep him on the fifty

539
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:10,719
Speaker 4: three man roster. Oh, I think, because I where are

540
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:11,680
Speaker 4: they gonna trade him?

541
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 1: Well, hang on a second, though, he's on pomp right now,

542
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: isn't he right? At some point, if he's gonna be

543
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 1: on the fifty three, he's got to come off pump, right,

544
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,920
Speaker 1: which will be interesting because he says he's healthy, right,

545
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,920
Speaker 1: but they have him on pump, so who knows he's

546
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:28,400
Speaker 1: not using a spot right now?

547
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 3: Is this even legal?

548
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:30,120
Speaker 5: Yeah?

549
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 4: Do it?

550
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,359
Speaker 5: It's all of it's weird. All of it's weird.

551
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 4: He's been given permission, he and his agent to look

552
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:40,360
Speaker 4: for a deal, which I think is one of those

553
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 4: things where when you're growing up and your parents are like, yeah,

554
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,440
Speaker 4: go ahead, go out with your buddy who's a bunch

555
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 4: of fun, but he's a troublemaker. Go ahead, go see

556
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,120
Speaker 4: what happens, and you go out, you yeah, yeah, yeah,

557
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,640
Speaker 4: and then you go, oh boy, my parents knew what's

558
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 4: going on. I think that's what the cults are saying,

559
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,880
Speaker 4: go ahead, Oh, I'll give you one better, go find

560
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 4: your team.

561
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 5: He's not gonna find it.

562
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:04,879
Speaker 3: I'll take the analogy further.

563
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,359
Speaker 1: This is your five year old saying I'm moving out,

564
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 1: and he leaves the house. Go ahead, tell us how

565
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 1: his bag with him down the ship down the driveway

566
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 1: doesn't even get to the sidewalk. He gets the end

567
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:18,879
Speaker 1: of the driveway, like, I don't know, I need the

568
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 1: mac and cheese, and Mom makes I gotta go back

569
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 1: and outn't even have a credit card.

570
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 5: So I think that's kind of what this is.

571
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 3: Like.

572
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 4: All right, go ahead, I mean go look, I mean,

573
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 4: you know, see what you can find. But I do

574
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 4: think what it could lead to is them holding on

575
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 4: to him getting near the trade deadline because you knows,

576
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 4: some team, some good team is gonna lose a back

577
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 4: or lose a weapon, and they're gonna look at Taylor

578
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,199
Speaker 4: and go, you know what, I think we can do that.

579
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 1: Maybe they're asking prices in as much. Maybe agrees to

580
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,399
Speaker 1: a lighter deal. Who knows, maybe so, and maybe he

581
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,160
Speaker 1: agrees to his shorter deal. Like for example, the team

582
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 1: that's been brought up is Miami.

583
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 5: Well, I don't.

584
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,399
Speaker 4: Miami's got a lot of money tied up into Tyreek,

585
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 4: but Too is still on his rookie deal.

586
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 1: Right right, So yeah, but those bills are coming due.

587
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 1: I know that bill's coming Duet, not yet, but that

588
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 1: that bill's coming to as well. So you know, and

589
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 1: they pay Chubb, They're gonna have to pay Jalen Phillips

590
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 1: at some point. It's coming up.

591
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 4: So could they do something where they're like, look, let's

592
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,359
Speaker 4: do it, Like, let's do a two year deal.

593
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,399
Speaker 5: Let's get him for this year and let's tack on

594
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:26,119
Speaker 5: two more years.

595
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,400
Speaker 4: Let's give him what does he want he wants sixteen million,

596
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 4: Let's give him third, Let's give two to thirty.

597
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 5: Let's guarantee the thirty.

598
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 4: So you get this year and you get two others. Now,

599
00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 4: what do you have to give up? What do you

600
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 4: have to give up for that?

601
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:38,880
Speaker 5: Oh?

602
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 4: Boy, that's dicey. So that, that, to me is the

603
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 4: hard part. Like, Okay, maybe you can come to Grips

604
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 4: with the smaller, shorter contract. Whether Taylor or agree to

605
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,920
Speaker 4: it or not, I don't know, but maybe he does

606
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 4: just to get out of that situation. I don't know

607
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 4: what Miami would give up. But what if you put

608
00:25:56,160 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 4: Jonathan Taylor on the Dolphins. Here's my thought. Though that

609
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,880
Speaker 4: sounds on paper great, offense, line is still the offensive line,

610
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 4: and I don't know that I trust it. Yeah, I

611
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:07,960
Speaker 4: don't know I trusted offensive line.

612
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:09,879
Speaker 1: But you got a game plan for this, it would

613
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 1: be hard problems for defense.

614
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,160
Speaker 4: Would they be the best team in the AFC East

615
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 4: if they get Jonathan Taylor?

616
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,439
Speaker 1: I guess you could argue on paper, but I know

617
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,720
Speaker 1: a lot of people still don't fully believe in Tua.

618
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,639
Speaker 1: I know they put up big numbers for a stretch

619
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 1: last year, but Josh Allen, as far as winning the division,

620
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 1: I don't know about Super Bowl run winning the division.

621
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people would put their stock

622
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,600
Speaker 1: in that. Aaron Rodgers, they would buy stock in that

623
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:36,200
Speaker 1: because the ceiling seems so high with the Jets and

624
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 1: all the other assets they have. But you're gonna go

625
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 1: with Pierce and over Taylor one thousand.

626
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 3: That's more likely to happen. Next one more likely to happen.

627
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 1: All right, listen carefully. Now more likely to get his

628
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 1: first win?

629
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:50,639
Speaker 5: C J.

630
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:55,160
Speaker 1: Stroud. I'm assuming he starts here, Bryce Young, who gets

631
00:26:55,200 --> 00:27:00,200
Speaker 1: their first win? First, Stroud has Baltimore on the road,

632
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,679
Speaker 1: the Colts at home, the Jags on the road, and

633
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers at home.

634
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna go first four here, Okay, Bryce.

635
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 1: Young at Atlanta, New Orleans in Charlotte at Seattle, and

636
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 1: Minnesota at home. Who gets the win first, the first

637
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 1: win of their career.

638
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,639
Speaker 4: I keep thinking that Texans are gonna at a minimum

639
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:23,640
Speaker 4: win week.

640
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 5: Two back here. We haven't a win since December twenty sixth,

641
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:28,160
Speaker 5: twenty twenty one.

642
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 3: At home.

643
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:33,159
Speaker 4: We got to win a game at home. So I

644
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,880
Speaker 4: just those two games though, for the Panthers to start.

645
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 4: They get Atlanta on the road. That's always a tough game.

646
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 4: You remember, remember that game went last year in Atlanta.

647
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,720
Speaker 4: It's thirty four to twenty eight. PJ Walkers in the

648
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 4: game for the Panthers, and he throws a sixty five

649
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:52,679
Speaker 4: yard seed to DJ Moore, who celebrates throwing his helmet off.

650
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:55,360
Speaker 4: They get a fifte yard penalty shank extra point, losing overtime.

651
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,640
Speaker 1: And I saw that again in the Quarterback Show, right

652
00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 1: right exactly.

653
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 4: Oda second games always, no matter what, Carolina, Atlanta is

654
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 4: always kind of weird. But I think Atlanta win that

655
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,879
Speaker 4: I feel like coming back for the Saints the Panthers,

656
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 4: like the Texans getting back home after a tough opener.

657
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:13,639
Speaker 4: I think that's the game that the Panthers win. I

658
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,399
Speaker 4: think it's the game that Texans win. But because I'm biased,

659
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say the Panthers lose that one and go.

660
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 5: CJ gets it first.

661
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,879
Speaker 1: CJ gets his first career victory over Bryce Young or

662
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,200
Speaker 1: before before Bryce Young. All Right, I've got another one

663
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: involving a rookie quarterback.

664
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,960
Speaker 3: Here we go more likely to happen, more.

665
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 1: Likely to happen Anthony Richardson bust or at least tremendous disappointment,

666
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 1: or Malik Willis resurrects himself as a semi solid starter.

667
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 1: So Richardson bust Willis changes everybody's mind. It becomes a

668
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 1: pretty good starter, doesn't have to be elite, but serviceable starter.

669
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:54,480
Speaker 5: I've said that happened.

670
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 4: I've said from day one, when I first saw Malik

671
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:02,400
Speaker 4: Willis that his game had plenty of kind of wild

672
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 4: child in it.

673
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 5: But you could see, especially the senior will there's a

674
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 5: little bit of restraint. He started showing a little bit

675
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 5: of that.

676
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 4: I think last year he's thrown into fire, and it's

677
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 4: just like I gotta get out of the fire.

678
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:15,920
Speaker 5: However I can.

679
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 4: I think what you've seen in the preseason, you still

680
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 4: see some things that aren't that good. My point is

681
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 4: I'm leading towards Malik Willis becoming at least a competent

682
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,320
Speaker 4: starter in the NFL, because I feel like there have

683
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 4: been changes in his game since he left Auburn. Auburn,

684
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 4: I mean he was all over the place. I mean

685
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 4: he's just an athlete playing quarterback. He's now turned into

686
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 4: I think an athletic quarterback. Now he's got to turn

687
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 4: into an athletic quarterback under control at all times. I

688
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 4: mean there's still some things like against the Bears, he's

689
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 4: got a guy wide open at the five yard line.

690
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 4: He's got to stick it, just put it on him.

691
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 4: I mean that's a weleak.

692
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 5: Willer's throw Just zip it right.

693
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 4: No, he throws it five feet too high, the ball

694
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 4: gets tipped intercepted. So it's it's those things he's got

695
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 4: to continue refined. But I think given a few I

696
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 4: know we don't give quarterbacks this time, but given another

697
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 4: year or so, I do think he can turn it

698
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:12,680
Speaker 4: to a competent quarterback. Here's the problem. It's gonna have

699
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,120
Speaker 4: to be. Hey, we've brought you in to be the

700
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 4: backup to Kenny Pickett. Yeah, and Pickett gets hurt and

701
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 4: you're forced to go in and you're forced to be

702
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 4: the guy. But now you're three years into your career

703
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 4: and you really kind of find yourself. I think it's

704
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 4: gonna be Willis. I think Richardson will do enough to

705
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 4: not be a complete and total bust. Okay, he'll do enough.

706
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 4: He'll hit some deep routes outside the numbers, He'll make

707
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,360
Speaker 4: a few runs. He will do enough. He'll he'll become

708
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:43,080
Speaker 4: justin fields and the Colts will say, you know what,

709
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 4: t win this game. We gotta have him cary it

710
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 4: twenty times. And he'll do it twenty times. He's got

711
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,200
Speaker 4: the body and the bill to be able.

712
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:48,360
Speaker 5: To do it.

713
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 4: So I think he'll be just successful enough. So I'm

714
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 4: gonna go Willis to be a competent starter at some point.

715
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 1: I think if Richardson has to go without Jonathan Taylor,

716
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 1: and that's looking more and more likely and ugly, that

717
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 1: could be a big problem for him, especially in the

718
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 1: early going. And look, Willis could end up playing for

719
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 1: Tennessee again this year, Levis. And we'll talk about the

720
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 1: mayonnaise later, Levis. And then you've got Ryan Tannehill, who

721
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 1: knows what if he gets hurt again, or what if

722
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 1: it doesn't work out, whatever the situation might be. All right,

723
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:19,480
Speaker 1: let's get another quarterback one in here. Let's go to

724
00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 1: the NFC North, a division the Texans are not playing

725
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 1: in any way, shape or form this year, but more

726
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 1: likely to have a better career from here. Justin Field's

727
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 1: Jordan Love better career from here? Jordan Love has the

728
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 1: rains in Green Bay? Are they going to be able

729
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: to do something? Fields obviously has the rains in Chicago.

730
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 1: You've got new weapons, you've got a new attitude. Like

731
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,640
Speaker 1: Patty LaBelle would say, is it going to work out

732
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 1: for either one of these guys in their places of business?

733
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 4: Okay, before I answer this, I have a question for you.

734
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:57,560
Speaker 4: All right, and it's somewhat rhetorical, I guess, But why

735
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 4: have I heard so many people this offseason say that

736
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:07,120
Speaker 4: Justin Fields is the best quarterback in the NFC, not.

737
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:11,680
Speaker 5: The NFC North. I'm talking NFC. I've seen multiple people say.

738
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 1: That that's crazy. Dump bound it, that's crazy talk. Let

739
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 1: me ask you this, You've got to go through a season,

740
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 1: you take it Fields or Dak Prescott.

741
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:21,960
Speaker 4: I'm taking Dak. Yeah, I'm gonna take I think I

742
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 4: think I'm gonna take Dak.

743
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 5: I'm gonna take.

744
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 1: I'm not saying Dak is that great, and that's not

745
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 1: who I consider to be the best in the NFC.

746
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 1: But let's go out west here. Oh boy, it gets

747
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 1: dead in a hurry. Gino resurrected himself in Seattle, actually

748
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:37,800
Speaker 1: higher than he's ever been, right as far as his.

749
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:38,800
Speaker 3: Level of play.

750
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if you're ready to say,

751
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 1: mister irrelevant, is that great?

752
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 4: But he's certainly good enough on that particular thing them

753
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:48,960
Speaker 4: very well, and that's an important thing. Daniel Jones.

754
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,560
Speaker 1: I might take Daniel Jones over Justin Fields if I

755
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:53,480
Speaker 1: have to go through a season at this point.

756
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 3: In the history and Jalen Hurts. Let's get to the

757
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 3: meat of it here.

758
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 1: This is an MVP candidate who, no question is better

759
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 1: than all those guys.

760
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 3: In my mind, Jalen's number one.

761
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 4: I can't remember who I saw making it well, Justin

762
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 4: Fields is better than Jalen Hurts.

763
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 5: He's got a better arm, he's a better runner all.

764
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 4: That, and like, yeah, but Jalen Hurts has the special

765
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,959
Speaker 4: qualities that you look for in a quarterback. And by

766
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 4: the way, his passing has improved every year and he's

767
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 4: still a dominant run quarterback when he needs to point being,

768
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say love because I am a and both

769
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 4: of them are in this category. Prove it to me.

770
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 4: But I've always been a Jordan Love guy. I've always

771
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 4: loved Jordan. I've been a Jordan Love guy for a

772
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:37,280
Speaker 4: long time. I want to see it come to fruition.

773
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 4: I think he can do things throwing the football in

774
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 4: a special manner, and he's now got.

775
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 5: He's got everything at his disposal.

776
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 4: Here's the other thing too, And I think Luke gets

777
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:49,240
Speaker 4: he's gonna be a good offensive coordinator.

778
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 5: But Jordan loves learning from Matt Lafloor.

779
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,760
Speaker 4: I mean, I would much rat to have my quarterback

780
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:58,880
Speaker 4: learning from Matt Lafleur because Luke getsy learn from Matt Lafleoor.

781
00:33:59,080 --> 00:33:59,959
Speaker 5: So I'm gonna got Jordan Love.

782
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: Okay, that's it more likely to happen in the books.

783
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 1: Let's go around the league next. We're not gonna hit

784
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,839
Speaker 1: on every story, but a lot of them, and they're

785
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 1: very interesting, including fight at the Colts practice with the Eagles.

786
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:18,320
Speaker 1: Will Levis really interesting endorsement idea, and a starter named

787
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,120
Speaker 1: to a Texans opponent this year. It's coming up on

788
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,840
Speaker 1: Texans Radio. All right, our final segment here on Texans

789
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 1: Radio tonight with an around the League thing as November fifth. Well,

790
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:32,239
Speaker 1: let's get to the sounder first. November fifth, the Tampa

791
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers invade NRG Stadium. Baker Mayfield has been named

792
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 1: the starter for the Bucks. Johnny is he's still in

793
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:42,840
Speaker 1: the hole when the Texans played the Bucks November fifth?

794
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:43,840
Speaker 3: Does he last?

795
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,719
Speaker 5: I'm gonna say yes, and I don't think it's so much.

796
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 4: I know Kyle traskat a nice ball game the other night,

797
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,680
Speaker 4: but there's just something with Trask that I've never been

798
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,200
Speaker 4: totally sold, and I should be. The guy's got a

799
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 4: great story. Totally sold on him to be an NFL quarterback.

800
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 4: He doesn't move each extremely well. I think you have to.

801
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 4: In today's NFL. Rushers are too good, Devin's coordinators are

802
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,239
Speaker 4: too good moving quarterbacks off the spot. But I think

803
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 4: Baker's not been special by any means. With the Tampa

804
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 4: Bay Buccaneers, but I think they're still enough there when

805
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:16,760
Speaker 4: he's playing with Evans and Godwin, if they're both healthy.

806
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,319
Speaker 4: They got to get more on the running game. But

807
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:22,880
Speaker 4: the offensive line is taking a few hits. Donovan Smith's

808
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 4: no longer there, Alan Marpett retired, so the offensive line's

809
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 4: taken some hits. But I think Baker will be the

810
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 4: guy at least this year, and if he's not, then

811
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:36,799
Speaker 4: the whole thing crumbles. Then Caley Williams will be at

812
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,160
Speaker 4: their disposal or Drake may or whoever they want to

813
00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 4: draft at the top of the draft. So I think

814
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,799
Speaker 4: we will see Baker. I think it's let's ride this.

815
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,239
Speaker 4: Baker can get us some win. Looking at division, I mean,

816
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 4: I think the division will be a little bit better,

817
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:52,160
Speaker 4: but I still think nine wins could win that division. Yeah,

818
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 4: So I think Baker can get enough wins to at

819
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 4: least keep them in it, and then you never know

820
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:57,680
Speaker 4: what happens at the end of the season.

821
00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 5: So I think we'll see Baker.

822
00:35:58,680 --> 00:35:58,839
Speaker 3: Yeah.

823
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:01,279
Speaker 1: I think it's a lant of versus New Orleans, and

824
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,840
Speaker 1: I think New Orleans gets it, but we'll see. Because

825
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:07,000
Speaker 1: everybody's got problems. It's kind of like life.

826
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 3: Itself. All right, let's get to the next one.

827
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,959
Speaker 1: All right, Johnny, I'm gonna ask you a loaded question here,

828
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:15,640
Speaker 1: and I don't know where it all goes for their season,

829
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:19,520
Speaker 1: But am I enjoying what's happening to the Indianapolis Colts

830
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 1: right now?

831
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:21,760
Speaker 3: That's my question.

832
00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:24,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're enjoying it. I'm enjoying You're enjoying it.

833
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:29,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm enjoying Taylor seeking well getting permission to seek

834
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:32,319
Speaker 1: a trade fight and practice today with the whole little

835
00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 1: of the Eagles, and Anthony Richardson got punched.

836
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, Anthony Richardson apparently, you know, in the joint practice,

837
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 4: quarterback aroun the ball and you're not supposed to tackle him,

838
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,359
Speaker 4: but the opposing team will try and punch it out.

839
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 5: Peanut Tillman punch it out.

840
00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, And apparently Derek Barnett defensive end for the Eagles

841
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 4: to want to go punch it out Boo accolutely punched

842
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:52,759
Speaker 4: Richardson and that kind of set things off. And then

843
00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 4: a little while later, Jason Kelcey, all pro center of

844
00:36:56,040 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 4: the Eagles, thought a Colt hit an egle pass catcher late,

845
00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:04,360
Speaker 4: so Kelsey went over there and enacted a little bit

846
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 4: of justice. And then after that, you guys go to

847
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,600
Speaker 4: your separate corners. They were separated for the rest of practice.

848
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,960
Speaker 1: This is like Texans against Washington in twenty fifteen, although

849
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,840
Speaker 1: that was the worst I've ever seen it. That was

850
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,440
Speaker 1: a tidal wave of activity, right.

851
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:20,560
Speaker 5: Well, they all met in that fear.

852
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 4: There was there was a feld one in the field

853
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 4: two and Field one's fight was going on as they

854
00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 4: were starting one in the field two, and it all

855
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:28,680
Speaker 4: kind of merged like right there in the middle was

856
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 4: nasty nuts.

857
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 1: It was watching it live. I thought, this is gonna

858
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,319
Speaker 1: go viral. This is gonna be very bad.

859
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 3: There are a few things that went viral, the hop

860
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:40,239
Speaker 3: and di'angelo.

861
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 5: Hopy d Angela hall i end things.

862
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:46,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, that and then the Vince will fork blast into

863
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 1: the backfield what was that? That went viral as well?

864
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,279
Speaker 1: And RG three's mom hosting a radio show. Now that

865
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:55,319
Speaker 1: just went viral in our little world. But Johnny, so

866
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,200
Speaker 1: the Colts have this altercation, you know what, forget about

867
00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 1: them for a moment. I have this vibe right now,

868
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:04,320
Speaker 1: and it's for good reason. So the Patriots canceled joint practices.

869
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 1: I know they had the injury to feed into that. Yeah,

870
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,279
Speaker 1: if you had Laflorence Sola saying what they said, which

871
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 1: is maybe one is good enough. Yeah, you had what

872
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 1: happened today, you had the Texans calling it off with

873
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:17,719
Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints this week. I feel like joint

874
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:21,400
Speaker 1: practices they're gonna get heavily rethinked or they're gonna go

875
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:27,800
Speaker 1: away because teams cannot afford this fights injuries, wear and tear.

876
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:30,480
Speaker 1: I know the preseason games that our own special kind

877
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 1: of wear and tear, and the officials are there joint practices,

878
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:36,760
Speaker 1: but they really can't enforce much. It's not like there

879
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 1: for the world to see on the game stage where

880
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:40,000
Speaker 1: it just feels different.

881
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 3: It feels more policed, if you will.

882
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:44,520
Speaker 4: I've thought about this after the week with Miami, so

883
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:45,799
Speaker 4: I think there are a couple things that I would

884
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 4: do if I were in the NFL.

885
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 5: Here's what I would say.

886
00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:51,080
Speaker 4: I would say, you want to have joint practices, Fine,

887
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:56,600
Speaker 4: you can have one, oh you you, I'm sorry, you

888
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,080
Speaker 4: can have two weeks worth, but you can only have

889
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,480
Speaker 4: one joint practice with that team, because when you get

890
00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 4: to the second day, that's when it gets dicey. Yeah,

891
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 4: the second day gets very dicey because now you're seeing

892
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:07,840
Speaker 4: the same guys like, Okay, this guy did this to

893
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 4: me yesterday, I'm gonna go get him. You can have

894
00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 4: the first two weeks of the preseason. You can have

895
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,799
Speaker 4: a joint practice where you get one practice. So if

896
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:18,480
Speaker 4: let's say you play the game on Saturday, you get

897
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:22,760
Speaker 4: your joint practice and on Thursday. Also, there is nothing

898
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:27,960
Speaker 4: of an individual nature. You just do team or seven

899
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 4: on seven. Good, that's all you do. You don't do

900
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:32,839
Speaker 4: one on ones, right, You can do one on ones

901
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 4: with your team, that's it, but it becomes a true

902
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:37,840
Speaker 4: scrimmage situation.

903
00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:39,400
Speaker 3: One on ones are fight starters.

904
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:40,960
Speaker 5: They absolutely fight starters.

905
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:43,759
Speaker 4: And I don't know how this happened with the Eagles

906
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 4: of Cults, but I think, think about how we are,

907
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:49,200
Speaker 4: just you and me right now. Think about how tired

908
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 4: we are, and how what we've been going through, which

909
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 4: is nothing compared to these players. Now, imagine you got

910
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:57,640
Speaker 4: to go against some other team where the intensity is

911
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,759
Speaker 4: a thousand percent and you got to go against that

912
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 4: for two straight days.

913
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what, I think Joint practices the third

914
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,920
Speaker 1: week of the preseason. They look good on paper when

915
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,200
Speaker 1: you're at the owner's meetings and everyone's sitting around like, yeah,

916
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,040
Speaker 1: let's get together, and then you get here and it

917
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 1: just feels sort of like too much, and maybe that

918
00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 1: might be the case with a lot of these teams.

919
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 1: All Right, I'm going to go with one more here

920
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:24,360
Speaker 1: because I can't resist this one. When you're talking about

921
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,720
Speaker 1: endorsement deals, oh Levis.

922
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:28,920
Speaker 3: And what is it?

923
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 1: A lifetime endorsement from Hellman's Mayonnaise. That's a little lessoteric

924
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:33,920
Speaker 1: to me.

925
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:39,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's awesomely bad, but it's so awesome. Will Levis,

926
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:43,480
Speaker 4: I think it was at SEC Media Days, put mayonnaise

927
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:50,319
Speaker 4: in his coffee and everybody was mortified, which is what

928
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:54,400
Speaker 4: Will Levis is apparently of milk. He is apparently mortified.

929
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 4: It's like snakes or really heights because it comes from

930
00:40:57,760 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 4: a cow.
